AirWreckRadio

On this episode of AirWreckRadio, the boys start thinks off by kvetching about news sites with paywalls. Seriously WaPo: you think your articles are worth as much to me as Netflix? Better check your privilege! In the news this week, the shooting at YouTube headquarters has the 2nd Amendment crowd complaining that pro-gun-control people don’t care enough about hand-guns. Also, Amazon is coming to Rochester. More specifically, Amazon is coming to Henrietta, which already has lots and lots of jobs, where the City of Rochester does not. Closing things up, Stacey runs through some quick follow-ups on past stories and some stories we simply haven’t addressed. So cool!

AirWreckRadio: When news breaks, we hesitate to steal tag lines from Comedy Central!

On this installment of AirWreckRadio, the boys get their privilege checked! On our previous episode Stacey tried to cram a half-hour topic into the last 6 minutes of the show. Obviously, that didn’t work out so well! Listener and Director of 540WestMain.org, Calvin Eaton joins us in studio to help unpack the issues of race, Black Lives Matter, and the March for Our Lives movement at a much more reasonable pace. It’s a really good conversation, and you should listen to it! Or not! Whatever! You do you! WHY AM I YELLING!!!?

On this episode of AirWreckRadio the boys start off light with a little reminiscing about everybody’s favorite childhood nightmare hellscape, “PeeWee’s Big Adventure”! In the News this week: All across the country (but mostly in red states) teachers are marching to their State Capitols to protest their horrible wages, and the sad state of funding our nation’s public schools are finding themselves in. From Arizona to Oklahoma to Kentucky, we’ve got a summary of what these folks’ beef is! Closing things up, the President of the United States of America confirms live on Twitter that he doesn’t know how the Post Office works, or at least that he’s willing to lie about how the Post Office works to fool his voter base into thinking that Walmart is better than Amazon. Oh Boy!

AirWreckRadio: The beef is right here!

On this episode, the 50th episode (in season 6) of AirWreckRadio, the boy get busy! In the first break, “Mad” Mike Hughes, a flat-Earther, lunches himself 1,800 feet into the air in a steam rocket! Why? Because he’s a flat-earther, and that’s just what they do! In the news this week, Utah passes a “controversial” law that makes it legal for children to play outside without direct parental supervision. Also in the news, the Monroe County Democratic Committee tried to suppress their member’s right to select their candidate to replace the late Louise Slaughter in the House of Representatives by all but nominating Joe Morelle, an okay old-white-guy Assemblyman who has been serving in the State government for a considerable time. Lastly, is Black Lives Matter throwing shade at the March for Our Lives kids? We’re not sure, but we are sure that in the last six minutes of the show, we took a ham-fisted swing at discussing it.

AirWreckRadio: Even if we fail, we still try!

On this episode of AirWreckRadio the boys get started with a new (read:HACK) bit! In the news this week, firearm enthusiasts and gun-nuts alike find themselves triggered as YouTube begins pulling videos about crafting illegal or dangerous gun modifications, among other firearm-related videos. Rational enthusiasts across the country are like, “well, that sucks, but YouTube’s business is YouTube’s Business.” Gun-nuts, however, are complaining loudly about the “Liberal-Left coming for our freedoms, and silencing our voice.” In response to having their voices silenced, some content providers are bringing their gun-related content to a place that makes way more sense than just starting their own platform. Where, you may ask, is this sensible place to post videos about crafting silencers and equipping bump-stocks? Pornhub! So obvious! Closing things up, the boys have a little fun talking about some of the nice bumper-stickers they’ve see while out and about!

AirWreckRadio: It makes mouths smile!

On this Episode of AirWreckRadio, Stacey starts things off with a little tease about an upcoming review of the new Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers Movie! It’s not great! In the news this week, “Last Week Tonight” host John Oliver and Co. pull off an epic troll move on the M1k3 Pence family’s new children’s book for straight children, the Stormy Daniels thing has finally caught our attention, and President Trump continues to crow about getting the death penalty for “drug dealers.” He’s a very stable genius, trust me. Closing thing’s up, Administration Mouth-Piece Sarah Huckabee Sanders gets her portrait done and Fox & Friends aren’t having it! Also, Press Secretary Sanders congratulates President Putin on his legitimate-enough-for-Russia re-election! Oh my!

AirWreckRadio: We’re not here because where good at it.

On this episode of AirWreckRadio the boys start things off by starting off too early! After our first ever cold open, there’s much to talk about! It’s cold and snowy out still, and Stacey finally saw Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Expect the first 15 minutes to be full of spoilers! (Since when is spacewalking a Jedi power?) In the news this week, over-the-top liberal news coverage is providing fuel to the American Divide while making liberals look silly, even to themselves. Representative Louise Slaughter (D-NY) died this week at the age of 88. We’re gonna miss her, but we sure wish she had stopped being a Congressperson about 20 years ago. Wrapping things up, Cory invokes a new study by the CDC to shame all of us alcoholics right before our favorite annual ceremony, St. Patrick’s Day! It’s a real good time!

On this episode of AirWreckRadio, Stacey’s got a bone to chew, but first he’s got to do eight minutes of radio all by his lonesome! “Chappie” is a movie about a robot cop with a heart of gold, or something. It’s pretty fun to pick at and has some real feelsy moments! In the news: Remember that bone? We do. West Virginia Senator, Republican Lynne Arvon says teachers should learn that “The time for free handouts is over” as she gets a 5% raise those teachers worked for. We have a lot of fun with that. After that, Florida does anything at all about gun control!

AirWreckRadio: I think you pick a bone, not chew it!

On this Episode of AirWreckRadio, Stacey saw Black Panther, so the boys can finally talk about that movie instead of Thor: Ragnarok. Stacey had a small problem with the plot, but over-all the boys agree, it’s a pretty good movie. There are some light spoilers, so if you don’t want to hear those, skip ahead about 12 minutes to get to the news.

Speaking of the news: This week, the West Virginia teacher’s strike appears to be at an end after 9 days. The result? teachers get about $47 more per week while the Superintendent gets an additional $221 per week. Problem solved. Also, Chinese President Xi Jingping changes the Chinese constitution so that he is “President” for life, and if the Chinese people don’t like it, well, they can go to jail because he also made it illegal for them to voice their dissent. Meanwhile, back in ‘Merka, President Trump said that sounds great, and maybe we should try that here! Awesome! Also, President Trump thinks that American firms pay too little for imported steal and aluminum, so he announced a plan to place a 25% tariff on all imported steal and aluminum despite the negative economic impact that is sure to have on pretty much every person and corporation in America. He’s so smart and stable.

Closing things up, the boys bid a fond fond farewell to SpongeBob SquarePants after 19 years on TV.

AirWreckRadio: We wanna live in a pineapple under the sea!

On this episode of AirWreckRadio, the boys get things started talking about Charles C. Mann’s new book, “The Wizard and the Profit: Two Remarkable Scientists and Their Dueling Visions to Shape Tomorrow’s World,” which Stacey is currently listening to. In the news this week: You may have noticed that many pundits are conflating the NRA with Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election. Why is that? Listen and find out!

AirWreckRadio: Mmm, Mmm Good!
