Jake and Sean begin the cast with a question posed to the listeners, then continue their analysis of The World Happiness Report. To no one's surprise 2021 is all about how happy covid made the world and how happy you'd be if you just did what you were told.

This week's cast starts off with a factual correction for last week's discussion.  We then moved into dealing with grandparents trying to influence your kids with values not your own.  Do we stay on topic? If you think we would, this is your first time listening... So, Welcome to the show!

Sean and Jake start off with a listener topic about unions, then move on to the abysmal coverage of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, and how hard it is to even know what is real anymore.

Wow... we made it to 10 episodes.  In this 10th cast Jake & Sean explore the concept of a racist artificial intelligence.  Does this simply reflect on the cesspool of humanity, or is there something deeper at work here?

In the 9th episode, Jake and Sean answer a listener comment then return to their bread and butter of doom and gloom, by grabbing right onto the third rail and tackling one of today's most controversial subjects in sociopolitical discourse.

In this cast Jake and Sean review Dave Chappelle's latest Netflix's special "The Closer", which turns into a conversation (you didn't expect us to stay on topic) about the way we communicate, generational differences in the meanings and effect of language, and Sean tries to give Jake some hope...

In this cast Jake and Sean contemplate the many ways the world is attempting to manipulate us, whether it is the grand conspiracy of the Facebook Algorithm, or the Alien Invasion to come. 

In this episode Sean talks while Jake says "Ummmm" a lot.  We go over emails we got from YepX and Dr. Gnome to You (Who's name I butchered), and discuss the role government has in our day to day lives.
