Ep 020 - Show Notes

Recorded 8/10/2025

Live Primary Results Special! 

In the twentieth episode of the Attention Deficit Hyperactive Politics podcast, we welcome Brandon back and review the election results. Spoiler Alert:  It’s good news for progressives all around! 

News of the Week checks in on the Seattle Ports and the effect of tariffs, checks in on other local news, and Brandon brings us a story on the Texas Dems in exile. 

What’s Geek this Week covers Marvel, Star Wars, and some news regarding the streaming service where you can find those properties.

Lastly, in That’s Some Weird Shit, we talk about some Texas tycoon karma, the always-weird Florida Man, and the Bermuda Triangle. 

All that and more on this week’s episode of ADHP with Doug & Todd & Brandon. Turn the volume up and take a ride!
