Banter Banter

Tribalism, what is it good for? Initially for keeping us silly humans alive another day. Mike and Manny lightly seek the answer if tribalism is still good for humans. The trick for this episode is the nostalgia of Spirit kicking off the 'pop up location' fad. Fighting against each other never seems to turn out in a positive light. so in the shadow of Halloween, let us embrace the amazing diversity of humanity and planet earth. The reality is diversity drives profits. Before Mike turns this podcast around this episode, sit down and enjoy the latest conversation from Banter Banter.

Opening/Closing: Dancin’ By Luke Bergs

The USD. The US Dollar. The United States Dollar Bill. Damnit Mike, stop talking money! Banter Banter comes back again to do the Old Man Grumble about Capitalism, the Gold Standard, and Fiat Currency. Get onboard because politics in the USA impact your international currency! Now that the fear-mongering is over, Mike talks us through the history leading up to most of the globe using the USD as the baseline for their local currency. This is one of the few moments to catch a peak behind the curtains of the Banter Banter recording schedule because of major changes related to the political converation. At least you can enjoy another sit down at the corner of Nostalgia and Reality with Banter Banter.

Mike and Manny do an informational dive into the silo of payment and compensation reports.  Acting like a couple of payroll specialists, this Banter Banter has some bad news for people who wonder if they’re getting paid enough.  Check your 401Ks and postpone the retirement another year or two.

The US Government collected data, and without knowing it they answered a generational argument! No Generation is (on average) more or less productive than any other generation. Armed with this fact, Mike drags Manny into the recent internet battle going in between generations. They look at some internet categories of slang terms from different generations and come to one conclusion. That listening to this episode while sitting at the corner of Nostalgia and Reality puts life into perspective. Stop hating and just appreciate, another episode from Banter Banter!

Manny & Mike look over the end of the summer break and consider the bitter sweet end of summer. From counting down the days, to cramming in one last hangout or vacation, these are wild times. What a better way to consider it than at the corner of nostalgia & reality.

I like junk food, you like junk food, we all like junk food! July has so many junk food days that the month might as well just be call Junk-lye. The hosts of Banter Banter take issue with some of the holidays slated for July, like National Zoo Day and National Junk Food Day. Mike gets extra 'Grumpy Old Man' about having a specific day for all junk food after so many days of foods that are junk food. After throwing some spaghetti on the wall in frustration, Manny and Mike offer up the holidays that are decent to keep around and why. Make sure your chair isn't too hot before sitting down at the corner of Nostalgia and Reality for another episode of Banter Banter.

Manny & Mike play the game "Gunshots of Fireworks" as they settle down so close to this explosive holiday. "America First" is on their mind as they consider nationalism and how it fits into berating a bond. How is it useful and where is it dangerous? It seems like the fandom toxicity talk all over again.

The lone gerbils, Mike & Manny take their inner alpha beasts on a romp through he fields of banter as they feast on the bones of analogies. This means that its time to look into these comparisons, take a sip from the hair of the dog that bit you and put away your claws, because we're about to feed you a bitter pill. Its okay, we put it inside a bit of cheese and lunch meat.
