#189: Free College and Canadian Politics

Cellar Door Skeptics are back this week with another action packed episode. This week we are pleased to announce that Keith has permanently joined the show to be the voice of Canada giving us another perspective on American Politics. He will resume his Canadian Segment examining news, politics, and trivia from Canada.

This week though the team examines Mike Pence’s vehicle fleet driving on a part of Michigan that has not had vehicles driven on it before. They also talk about the UN’s rebuke of how the Trump Administration has been separating children from their parents in the modern day concentration camps. They move on to talk about the New Mexico and what they are trying to do to make college free for all residents. Keith comes back to share his Canadian segment along with a trivia quiz that Boyce and Christopher struggled go find the correct answers on.

The show ends as usual with their quick save articles of the week.

#188: A Game Show or a Debate Arena

Tonight on Cellar Door Skeptics they discuss the Democratic Debates. They are joined by their friend Buddy The Lumberjack as he helps decipher whether we are watching a Game Show Production or if the Democratic Contenders really came to debate policy.

With Biden again getting the most talking time because everyone is taking a shot at him, it almost feels like we are here to be entertained and not educated on their political platform.

But do not take it from this little bit of text, join in on the conversation as the team discusses the most recent Democratic Debate.

The show also contains a segment from Buddy The Lumberjack as he gives us more incite into Canada and how it compares to the US.

The show ends as usual with their quick save articles of the week.

Subtitled: What we should have learned from Monopoly

The due also talk through the death of a Koch brother. They discuss the impact of this individual's career as well as what legacy he has left. They dissect the amount of influence that the Koch brothers have and if we will see any sort of a turning point in the money machine of the GOP.

#180: Why Should Nazis Be Able to Disrupt a Pride Event?

Cellar Door Skeptics is back this week to talk about Nazi’s. While we still promote the punching of nazis we need to look at what happened at the Detroit Pride Festival this last week.

What appears to be either a purposeful ignorance on the detroit police departments behalf or a misplaced thoughtful guesture to try and keep things civil, Detroit Police gave an escort to the NSM Nazi movement that decided to protest the Pride Festival in Detroit Michigan.

We take a deep dive into what it means for free speech rights as well as some past court cases that could guide us to understand what the motive was for protecting a group that literally wants other minority groups to either leave the country or to be exterminated.
