Insanity Check

It's here. The final Insanity Check (sorta). Kriss brings on two of his favorite guests, Rod & Karen from The Black Guy Who Tips for this final episode. There's plenty to talk about since the last episode. Joe Biden won the general election and has won it like 30 more times since November 3rd. Trump has continued to lose it since then and all it has done is shown how insane and dangerous his conspiracy theories have been. Way too many people are willing to either believe his lies or play along with them for their own personal gain. But it doesn't stop with just the nutcases on the right. The white leftist dudebros are also showing their colors as they've finally turned on The Squad and it's hilarious because of how predictable it's all been. But we can't end the Insanity Check without some good "Great Moments in White Privilege" as well as some examples of scientists apparently not paying attention to the warning messages we get from SciFi movies.

Topics:

Joe Biden won the election. Then he won it again. Then again. Then again. And again

White leftists turn on The Squad for...*checks notes* voting for  Pelosi as House Speaker instead of letting it fall to a Republican

Adolf Hitler wins Namibia election

Well...it's not technically cannibalism

Great Moments in White Privilege

Aunt Becky picked her own prison and then didn't have to  stay in  it long

US teen finds out the hard way that white privilege doesn't carry over to the Cayman Islands

Do You Even Sci-Fi Bro?

Planet of the Apes:  Scientists splice human genes into monkey brains...what could go wrong?

Making robots from living cells...because why stop the madness with 2020?

Racist white dudes prove why aliens will never visit us

We're down to the final two (planned) episodes of the Insanity Check. For this episode I'm joined by Justin from 3FifsPodcast and we're able to breathe a sigh of relief because Joe Biden pulled it off and beat Trump in the 2020 election. Sure, we know this isn't going to solve everything, but not having a dictator-wannabe in office is a huge improvement. 

Topics:

Biden & Trump got the most votes in history because this was the most accessible general election ever

Joe Biden ran a helluva campaign

We feel some kind of way about all the "two sides of the same coin" and "I just can't vote for Hillary" folks that all the sudden voted for Biden *cough* Marc Lamont Hill *cough*

AOC made valid points about moderate Dems 

Dems don't need to "win back" white working class voters...they only need 40-42%

The war against facts and truth is being lost

The Trump campaign really went out like some losers...in the parking lot of a landscaping company 

Kimberly Guilfoyle offered lap dances to fundraisers who offered the most money

Rudy Guiliani is not only an idiot but he's leading Trump's legal challenges and its going swimmingly

We're only 3 episodes away from the end of the Insanity Check. It's more real now as I type that. Add in the fact that we recorded this episode only a few days before election night 2020 and well, there's a lot of anxiety going on. So I decided that for this episode, I'd take the Insanity Check back to its roots: Covering crazy news. This week I'm joined by Aaron from the Black Astronauts Podcast and let's just say...we have some fun. First, Four Loko is back with shots. Still no caffeine but what's the worst that could happen? Then there's the used condom reseller in Vietnam and apparently monkey slave labor in Thailand. Like I said, we're getting back to the roots fo the Insanity Check.

We still cover some politics because obviously there's no way to avoid it. We talk about the insane way CNBC defines "struggling" for those families making over $400k and the coo...I mean...black men supporting Trump. 

Topics:

Four Loko is back with shots

Costco takes a stand against monkey slave labor

Someone was reselling used condoms in bulk and we have so many questions (and jokes)

Jerry Falwell Jr is just as much a piece of shit as his dead daddy

CNBC's ridiculous claim that families bringing in $400k "struggle" too

Channing Crowder explains why he doesn't mind paying more taxes

Kriss is back with another episode of the Insanity Check to cover this month's dose of insanity in the world. This month is a little  bit different. 2020 might have finally broken Kriss. This was going to be a solo show but Ro manipula...convinced, Kriss to instead use this show to talk about the new documentary "All In: The Fight For Democracy". Of course this just made things worse (but better for you all). We spend most of this episode talking about that documentary and the fucked up history of this country being really good at violating people's (namely Black & Brown people) civil rights.

You can watch All  In: The Fight For Democracy for free on Amazon Prime or on Youtube:
