In this episode, I confront the “triggered” meme conservatives love to toss around (you know the one ...with the crazy looking lady?) They use it to shame liberals, but here’s the truth: I’m proud to be triggered by the horrific things Trump, his corrupt administration and and the entire alt-right Christian Nationalist agenda is shoving into our world. What I don’t get is why the stuff they get triggered about is so… lame. (A fake “war on Christmas”? A single Bud Light can with a transgender woman’s face on it? Really?)

Along the way, I take your voicemails, rant about Trump’s idiotic takeover of Washington DC, side-eye Marsha Blackburn’s bid for Tennessee governor (spoiler: not a fan), and crown comedienne Elayne Boosler my official “Hero of the Week” for her incredible work with homeless animals. It’s politics, pop culture, and plenty of unfiltered opinions — the good kind of triggered from your favorite gay, liberal atheist living in the Bible Belt! https://www.danieljcartier.com/
