Thanks for tuning into The Garbage Barge and happy dang Wednesday! Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta HEARD YOU on Instagram and are talking about this damn Roseanne reboot! From conspiracy theories to third party candidates to the normalization of one of the scariest capitalist monsters to wield this kind of power in the “free world”. And, yet, the show made us laugh and seems to have recaptured some nostalgic magic that we can really appreciate… to a point. It’s simply not ok to normalize conspiracy theory as fact, or to conflate factual opinions with those created by basement-dwelling internet gun nuts.
