Welcome back to a rip roarin episode of HWIDG. Support Tab's inexplicable mustache choices by visiting www.Linktr.ee/moghvember once you've done that listen to Tab and Chaco wax poetic on...

Dystopia Overload
The Liberal Thought Process

For too long in media the dystopia has reigned supreme. Even when things look good, turns out the whole society is built upon power being derived from the flatulence of the masses. It's lazy writing and boring metaphor at this point. Give us something else, or you know keep doing the same garbage and act surprised when it doesn't sell.

It's 2000 and liberals are melting down about the election and wishing death on those they disagree with.
It's 2004 and liberals are melting down about the election and wishing death on those they disagree with.
It's 2016 and liberals are melting down about the election and wishing death on those they disagree with.
It's 2024 and liberals are melting down about the election and wishing death on those they disagree with.
Wow they aren't even trying any more.

All of that plus, tips for tanning, sasquatches, being ontime, and which former president should be in a hole in the ground!?

This week we're joined by JamieDlux and talking about mustaches linktr.ee/moghvember

Emotional Exhibitionism
Vice in Virtuous Clothing

This was recorded before the election, but holy hell did we see some more proud cry babies on the internet this week. It's worse than 2016 was. Why do these people take pride in being wound up by the world around them, it's pathetic.

These days as we continue to slide into degeneracy, the masters of the simulation try to make it seem like they aren't trying to poison our souls by having degenerate behavior minorly fund something that seems proper.

Additionally I'm taking part in Movember re termed Moghvember with some coworkers. We're raising funds for Peter and Paul Community Services here in St. Louis which services Men's homelessness. You can donate to one or all of us at Linktr.ee/Moghvember

This week we're talking about

Blaming Climate Change
Days of Infamy

El Chaco had an audio issue at the top of the show. I've taken his solo intro and attached it to the end. If you want an update on his horrific neighbors and can make it through the noise it's on the end.

This week we're talking about

Sudden Genre Death
App Deliveries

Chaco and Tab are back again this week, allergies are in full swing across the globe but these brave men soldier on in the face of adversity speaking on...

Loud Music
Dollar Store Derision

Everyone love's music, but you know what nobody loves your stupid music. Turn the knob down dillweed, we need not be subjected to your poor taste. There are about a hundred ways to listen to your music without affecting others. And audio engineers, if that's what you really are, turn your garbage system down. I shouldn't be experiencing physical pain at your concert, turn your amps down.

Dollar stores are everywhere. With low prices, under paid employees, crappy selection, and even worse quality, they're taking over the market. Rather than fix the problem in our society, commerce being regulated into oblivion, fuel costs skyrocketing as we demonize fossil fuels and limit production, increasing the minimum wage so worthless people can be paid more than I made as an assistant restaurant manager 15 years ago on their first day at mcdonalds, where they still can't stop putting ice in my drinks. No we need to stop the stores from existing, don't fix the culture of poverty, stop the stores.

All of that plus job advice, Chaco is in limbo, and your voicemails.

Joel and Tab return from the shapeless void, with 7% more estrogen in their blood and no way to redeem it, they're complaining about...

People Who Don't Respect Sundays
Plastics
Rewards Programs

Sure we should all be absolutely irate at the fact that our grandparents raised 5+ kids on less than $40,000 a year and only one income. What we should really be irate about though, is that our grandparents worked that one job, and when they left Friday afternoon, they we basically unreachable until the following Monday. Not any more, now your boss can insert themselves into your life about any stupid bullshit, at literally anytime of day or night. Then you get some absolute BS of, "You didn't answer my call on Saturday, you're not being a team player." Bitch I am not on the clock, leave me the hell alone.

60 years ago when plastics first hit the scene, it was a miracle material, light, flexible, and nigh indestructible. Now we're learning the true meaning of that last part. As more and more plastics are created it is slowly killing us. We may have fixed the toxic pollutants of the industrial revolution, but we replaced them with something far more insidious and longer lasting.

Have we covered rewards programs on this program? Sure multiple times, but they keep screwing us over so we're going to keep bringing it in. Be sure to get your card stamped for this version of rewards programs, after 10 you get a free cockpunch.

All of that plus news, and your voicemails!

Larry Bleidner returns to the show, completing the full cycle. Beginning this week we go back to talking about forklifts, Paraguayan Wrestling, and rooting for Trump. You don't remember what was said 7 years ago, we're just going to start recycling the same tired material and raking in the patreon dollars.

We're revisiting...

Throw Pillows, Birthday Weeks, 12-Story Falls, Commie Lovers, Mid-Life Crises
Stress
Incompetent Druggists
Inconsiderate Gym Goers

They say Fear is the mind killer, but it's not. Stress is the mind killer, it's literally killing all of us constantly, yet we do nothing to adequately control it. In fact sometimes stress causes a reaction that only induces more stress. That's why I am declaring War on stress, anyone who is still stressed by the end of this episode, will be summarily executed.

It's not enough these days to medicate every condition under the sun into submission, no these days we need to finely combine so many assembled chemicals to be right on the edge of poisoning ourselves or curing an affliction. Enter the pharmacists, and assistants, you'd think they'd follow one of the rules of acquisition about returning customers, but no they're totally okay with you OD'ing, just as long as they get that smoke break.

Courtesy basically doesn't exist anymore. No where is that more evident these days than the gym. Dudes with 3 sets of free weights, texting on their phones. Girls camping on the leg lift machine, texting on their phone. People of both genders standing where you're trying to walk, TEXTING ON THEIR PHONE. Put the phone down and lift.

All of that plus a revisit of episode 1, news of how much the government hates you, and your voicemails.

Chaco and Tab embarked on a thrilling adventure through the dense jungle, navigating treacherous terrain and avoiding deadly traps set by ancient civilizations. As they ventured deeper into the unknown, they stumbled upon a hidden temple, where they uncovered ancient artifacts and mysterious scrolls that held the secrets of the long-lost city. With their curiosity piqued, Chaco and Tab pressed on, determined to unravel the mysteries of the forgotten metropolis, specifically...

Lore Breaking
Artificial Intelligence as a Service

Lore breaking can be a problem because it disrupts the narrative, causing confusion and frustration among fans who are familiar with the original story. It can also damage the trust between creators and audiences, leading to a loss of interest and engagement with future content. Furthermore, lore breaking can compromise the integrity of storytelling by prioritizing shock value over coherence and consistency. Additionally, it can lead to fan entitlement, where fans feel they have a right to dictate what happens in the story. Overall, lore breaking can have negative consequences for the story's overall impact and the audience's enjoyment.

AI as a Service (AIaaS) is a problem because it allows companies to outsource their AI development to third-party providers, potentially compromising data security and control. It also raises concerns about bias and transparency in AI decision-making, as the underlying algorithms and data may not be transparent or accountable. Furthermore, AIaaS can lead to a lack of customization and flexibility, as users are limited to the pre-existing solutions offered by the provider. Additionally, AIaaS can create a dependence on a single provider, making it difficult for companies to switch or innovate independently. Overall, AIaaS can hinder innovation and limit the potential benefits of AI adoption.

All of that plus they also discuss their personal favorite sci-fi movies featuring AI, with Chaco revealing a surprising fondness for the 1984 film "The Terminator".

El Chaco is on the show this time, and WE'VE BROKEN THE CURSE! Talking about...

Doctors
An Ill Fit

Society reveres doctors, probably too much. We constantly lionize them all for the acts of just a few. For every person that has a good doctor experience there are 10 who spent years going to doctors to never be properly diagnosed. When they do diagnose you I can guarantee the solution is going to be some expensive prescription medication, and not diet and exercise. To hell with doctors.

Stability is not something that I have had a ton of in my life. As of this writing I have now lived in the same home for just over 2 years. Which is the longest I've lived in any home in my adult life. I think the longest I lived in any home was 6 years, maybe 7? It is crazy how often my mom moved us.

All of that plus a new news segment, catching up with Chaco, and once again, WE BROKE THE CURSE!

Chaco makes a cameo to start us off, but then it is Buck and Tab off to the races talking about...

AI Alarmists
Eschewing Practices & Standards

Every new piece of technology is supposedly the end of the world. Some of the predictions are correct others are way off base. The latest boogey man is AI, is it coming to take your jerb? I sure hope so. How else are we going to get rid of all this extra welfare money?

Sometimes we need to innovate to keep growing, that's a great example of why AI will always fail. Other times we need to go back to basics and just do what works. Two guys talking about work problems and reading some weekly news. When you never do the basics, you have no jumping off point to try something new, especially when you fall consistently on your face.

All of that plus suicidal robots, suicidal boomers, and a gamer beef blown out of proportion.
