I'm tired. I'm tired of selfish individuals putting THEIR personal beliefs above the well-being of others. We used to act as a society. Societies help each other. Societies have each other's backs. Whatever we are right now is not a society. Listen to this episode for my full rant on COVIDiots (those too selfish to help other's in a time when hundreds of thousands of our citizens are dying), the fact that white men are actually having it worse in college than any other group, the absolute stupidity of our visa system, and the fact that Californians are still waiting for clean water.

We have #1 presidents and we have #2 presidents. Sorry to break it to you, but Joe Biden is a #2 president. Trump was also a #2 president. This is the problem with our current political system - we have a lack of #1 people running things and Joe Biden exemplifies this right now.

More of my two cents on this episode: China & the environment, MLB & social justice/pretentious fans, we are killing our youth, and the Supreme Court.

Also, apologies for today's audio. Our microphone ran into some issues. It will be fixed by the next episode.

Welcome to the first episode of The Blaine DeSantis Show! Our rebranding is officially here. If this is your first time here, welcome. This show was previously called "Snapshots," but I felt that a name change was appropriate as my podcast encapsulates more topics than history.

Today we take a look at my Views on The News.

-1 hot dog takes away 36 minutes of your life

-Austalia subsidizes coal and gas-fired power plants

-Nantucket hypocrites strike again, this time saying no to wind turbines

-Stingless bees make unique honey with unique properties

-We discovered the northern-most island in the world

-The Romanian government is on the brink of collapse

-India is being invaded by the soy sauce company Kikkoman

We have a massive change coming to Snapshots beginning on Monday, September 6. Take a listen to hear all about new things to come. We can't wait to start this next chapter for the show and we thank all of you for your support and growth. 

Our headline story for the day is all about angry bees. It turns out that the venom from angry bees is "more desirable" for medical properties than the venom from "docile bees." More views on the news include: A currency war is raging in the Balkans over Nikola Tesla, more supply issues hit McDonald's, grocery stores are having a hard time stocking shelves, how clean needles rely on the blue blood of horseshoe crabs, cacti are the most illegally trafficked houseplant, climate change pushes winemakers north, and a treasure chest of Al Capone's belongings are going to auction.

Our headline story for the day is the GM and Ford are battling each other in the courts. Why is that? It all has to do with the name the companies are giving their self-driving car systems. More views on the news include: Aldi is hiring 20,000 US workers, air taxis are coming, the mulberry tree is making a comeback, the simple phone, troops deployed on the border with Belarus, and how a coin shortage is causing stress on the laundry system.

Our headline story is the big 500 person, celebrity-filled birthday party for former US President Obama at Martha's Vineyard. This tone-deaf party is a massive display of the fact that the political elites think they can do whatever they want while telling us we should do better with COVID. Other stories we look at include the fact that spacesuit delays will push back our next moon landing, supply chain shortages hit our school cafeterias, your cat is killing your plants, Levi's back away from cotton, the EU is increasing spending on private jets for elites, Kenyan camels could cause the next COVID pandemic, and not as many people can connect themselves to the Mayflower as we previously thought.
