On this episode of HDI Greg leads the way and educates us on the baby blocking methods that could have prevented any one of us from being here. Greg may have wished that Kevin and John's parents had used something 40-something years ago.

It's painfully obvious to all that we live in a divided country. Our two party political system has become so contentious that people are picking sides, digging in, and flipping the bird to the other side. Is it hopeless? Can we figure out a way to come together? Perhaps it's time to admit the Union didn't work and that it's time to break up. On this episode the crew attempts to answer the question: would we be better off if the United States split up? Join us for a rousing discussion that might get us all deported.

The Mormon faith is complicated and nuanced. And what better way to learn about it then from three liberal heathens? On this episode of HDI Greg teaches us about Mormonism. Can they really not drink alcohol? Spoiler alert: no, they can't. Clearly this is not the religion for us since Kevin drank a bottle of wine during the recording. Put on your favorite pair of magical underwear, crack a beer, and come be saved with us!

Ah, Spring. The snow is melting...birds are chirping...grass is growing...and the person sitting next to you on the bus has wads of Kleenex shoved up each nostril.

The media has been in our lives in a variety of forms for generations. It informs, educates, and even helps catch bad guys. Yes the media has a checkered past and a history of being dishonest. (Sorry, Fox News, lying to the public is another thing you didn't invent.) But it's certainly done more good than bad. It's a vital tool to Democracy. Don't believe us? Just ask someone in North Korea. Or better yet, listen to the latest episode and let John convince you!
