Don't Tread on Weebs

This week our Bishonen Bois discuss how the democrats are going to means-test their way into a 2022 midterm loss. On the anime side, Norris apologize for making us watch The Leader, a poorly-designed propangda manifesto hidden as anime. But it does lead to the best new grift: weighted anime body pillows.

This week the News Bois stay lazer-focused on what's most important: the crowned queen of posting. Yup, we discuss Neera Tanden's confirmation hearing. I guess we also get into some detail about Trump's impeachment hearing, and how if you expect(ed) him to be convicted you haven't been paying attention. Last but certainly not least, we try to give a primer on the Farmer's Protest in India, which should be warranting more attention than it has.

The Bishonen Bois, as the truest Delta Males, are here to give you the only stock tips you need. Thankfully we also dig in on the minimum wage debate this week, in the hopes of raising it so we can buy more Gamestop stock.

We also wrap up Planetes, discussing the series' climax and realizing the most important space travel is the friends we made along the way.

This week the lab digs deep into COVIDmania running wild, detailing how this pandemic is ruining not just America, but the whole dang world. But before that we get to the real news: Kellyanne Conway's perfectly normal family.

On this week's news lab, the Bishounen bois try to define "insurrection", and dig into Trump's twitter banning.

We get deep into the heart of interplanetary darkness this week, as we discuss what it takes in anime for a person to get to Jupiter.

In the news side of things, we dig into what the Dems can do now that they somehow have control of the executive and legislative branch. And how they're probably going to screw it up.

This week's Newslab looks back on the events of 2020 and uses it to explain why Bernie Sanders should have been president. Also we talk about the Georgia Senate run off election, and wrongly predict the outcome!

This week the Bishonen Bois discuss the most important event of 2020: Bernie Sanders getting stabbed in the back. No time for fake friends in 2020.

On the anime side, we're still picking up space garbage and ruminating about life in Planetes. Turns out that the only thing that can survive the cold emptiness of space is corporate bureaucracy.

This week's news includes looking into what's up with the Trump Death Cult, and discussing how the UK is contemplating being mad lads and just No-Deal-ing Brexit.

Never get between a spaceship captain and their smoko.

This week we discuss how the Brits are at it, and dig deeper into orbital trash collection. Inspiration for the episode name comes from The Chats, who rule and you should listen to.
