The Warm-Up

Welcome to a new installment of Hardly Focused! Firing off this episode, Jack asks Nate about his recent open mic events. Mike and Jack also discuss the latest in sports news, including the delayed start to the 2022 MLB season.

Ukraine's President is a Badass

Jack, Mike, and Nate discuss the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, with a focus on the badass that is President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The residents of Ukraine are just as resilient, with breweries manufacturing their own Molotov cocktails and folks casually moving live land mines out of harm’s way.

Also, for some reason, a discussion about the best chewing gum brands.

Staring Into a Tiger’s Soul

Kicking off this segment, Jack announces to Mike and Nate that the upcoming Futurama revival will include John DiMaggio. DiMaggio previously held out from joining the revival, instead requesting a pay increase for the entire voice cast.

Jack also features audio of a Massachusetts man who was arrested for breaking into a tiger enclosure at the Franklin Park Zoo. The visual component is great, with the man wielding a violin while he is interviewed by the local news.
