—Here, we explain that Zoom is most likely at fault for our recent (and perpetual) audio issues.


Did we try and fix things by jumping to Google Meet and/or Microsoft Teams? 


Yes.


Yes we did.


Google said we can’t record conversations, and Teams said, “Here’s how you add members…”


And then gave the WRONG explanation.


So, good job, Google and Microsoft. 


Ugh.


Stuck with Zoom… for now.


—Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers took time out of his day to defend an idiotic change to a bill.


While it’s kind to try and be all inclusive when using gender terms, sometimes it becomes beyond silly.


When seeking reproductive help—in vitro fertilization—suggested changes include turning “husband” to “spouse,” “wife” to “person,” “father” to “parent” (or “natural parent”) and “mother” to “inseminated person.”


Why?
Because apparently liberals have way too much time on their hands.


This is red meat for Republicans.


Red. Meat.
They’ll use it to eat Evers alive in the next election.


A completely stupid self-inflicted wound by Democrats.


Good job, dummies.


—We turn to the chat, and in that moment are reminded of the time our podcast blew up.


What happened? 


Anti-circumcision idiots were offended by the fact we mentioned circumcision in passing on the podcast. 


Man, what fun times, being trolled by morons.


Usually the morons that troll us are MAGA cultists.


—Someone put a bug into iPhone text-to-speech technology, but, in reality, it was a fix.


If you dictated the word, “racist,” to your phone, the transcription would read, “Trump.”


And then it would self-correct.


Which is hilarious, and accurate. 


But, Apple is going to remove that feature.


Bummer.


—Is Tulsi Gabbard the biggest hypocrite on the planet? 


Yes.


Kind of.


I mean, it’s a title she shares with every Trump sycophant.


But, she’s firing intelligence officers for sending sexually explicit messages.


Hmmm…


Who does she work for, again?


Who did she endorse?


I forget.


Mr. Grab them, where?


How many times has he been in court for assault?


How much does he owe E. Jean Carroll?


—If you are dumb, you turn to online advice columnists to solve your extremely dumb problems. 


Such is the case of one woman, who turned to Dear Abby, and asked her if she should divorce her husband.


Why?


They haven’t had sex in over 10 years, and he’s manic and has threatened to kill people.


Wow, what a great fella!
She should probably stay with him forever!

Not.


Ugh.


Walk, girl.


Walk.


—Where do we get our medical information?


TikTok.


Because why wouldn’t we?
A random video went viral, and started a discussion about body temperature. 


Because of course it did.


Idiots on Parade: we mock the news, so you don’t have to.


Tune in and get your giggle on.
