It takes less than a minute to bring up the Roe Vs. Wade fiasco. We know what you want! Luke and Scott ask for a little lubricant first That comes in the debate over which of the talk show team would win a game of tip 21. Who ya got? Scott has to release some steam and he steams whistles to the dulcet tones of Louis Armstrong. The Republicans wants to end abortions, but the Democrats screwed themselves first for not being proactive. Who do you blame and will you vote now because of this? Luke is dropping knowledge all day on this nightmare. Seriously, this is like 40 minutes of the show. So skip ahead like 40 minutes if you want to avoid it. Dave Chappelle was attacked on stage, but he's still funny as hell. Mike reminds everybody that Congress no longer exists. George Carlin pops in with some truths from 30 years ago that are just as valid today. Of course we read your emails and one of them gaslights Luke about student debt. Thanks Mr. Pink. Have you heard that co-ed living is outlawed in Shawnee, Kansas? We provide you with tips on how to avoid paying your student debt. But the best yet is saved for the end when long time IIS fan Danny asks the guys about their best and worst wedding stories.

Scott turned 40 the other day! His girl got him a massage plus some time in a sensory deprivation tank and Scott wants you to know how it feels. Have you ever been in one before? Mike was in the Dead Sea once. The local high school in Luke's neighborhood had a bizarre pushing episode happen. Mike totally blew it on picking up a friend from the airport last week. Have you ever left somebody at the airport? Mistakes will happen and Scott wants to know how often we can get a pass for not meeting obligations. Every 400? We have your emails and emailer Brian sent us a historic dump preserved for all time. Mike was sure he had taken a bigger dump than the preserved poo and he tells the story of the greatest poop ever passed. It's a tiny window into childbirth. Danny's email questions get into our favorite actors, favorite type of squirrel and a request for a triumphant return of Scott's Plan. Elon Musk bought Twitter and somehow it's all about Donald Trump. Finally, Mike Tyson took a swing at some douche on an airplane. This week it's Worker's Song by Dropkick Murphys.

Welcome to the 60th edition of the Is It Safe Talk Show! Mike gets into his displeasure with Yankees broadcaster Michael Kay who had Rudy Guiliani officiate his wedding. The midwest has just as many talented people as New York and others east coasters from the media industrial complex. Luke's furnace gets pissed which leads Luke to take a moment to clarify some of the miscommunication from last episode's conversation about race debates being a tool of the media and government. Jon Stewart's The Problem did a much better job than us recently by talking about institutional racism in the United States and we play a few clips to get his take on this continuing crisis in America. Luke wants you to know that the answers lie in massive economic boosts to the most people who have been historically oppressed. John saw Jawbreaker last night and shares his experience. Don't confuse Jawbreaker with Glassjaw which exactly what Mike did. A tasteless Grand Rapids joke from the Jawbreaker front man leads to our discussion about the recent shooting of Patrick Lyoya by a Grand Rapids police officer. There isn't much love for police on this show and we explain why that is. It's not just a blanket statement we assure you. Cops are instruments of force by the state and the state power arm is inherently violent. Just listen, we explain it clearly. Michigan recently sent out $400 checks per care for insurance rebates. The problem is the money came from a catastrophic accident fund that helped people from permanently injured car accidents survive. We get to your emails as always! Brian has a follow-up on the RaDonda Vaught conviction plus he's pissed about military vets being taken advantage of by sports leagues like the NFL. Mike had some technical issues at the end of the show. However, we still close the show with a song. This week it's Sunflower by Post Malone and Swae Lee. If any of this nonsense peaks your interest, please email the show at [email protected]
We took last week off right after we were building some momentum. We are fools! We open he show talking about our showering routines and how those dental floss pickers were all over the place wherever Mike used to live. Our downloads were on the rise before we blew-off last week. Are we destined to half-ass things? Our show description may be in up for a change, but we don't want to push people away with terminology that could scare potential listeners away. Gilbert Gottfried bit the big one and Scott couldn't be less enthused. Don't fall for Luke's Bobcat Goldthwaite ruse. Scott gets back on the who cares about celebrity death diatribe. Elliot Smith might be the only guy Scot would weep over losing. Will Smith shows up for a moment and so does Henry Ford since Luke spends time at Ford Field. The Aldi people are Nazis bit comes up again momentarily Luke wants you to know why the people in your neighborhood with diversity signs about equality don't exactly have their eyes on the prize. Racism equals ignorance and Luke thinks racism distracts from the universal political changes that would help all people of all backgrounds. Everybody on the show is anti-racism, but the virtue signaling isn't getting us any closer to a utopian society. Don't we all miss Bill Hader on SNL? The long racism discussion ends up reminding us that our military budget could lose $365 million without blinking an eye. We finally get into your emails! Thanks for writing us. Brian is on fire in the best way possible for this segment. If you want to be the new email champ, you have to go through Brian. Redonda Vaught draws the ire of Brian's rage.

Are STDs still a problem out there for single people? Luke is disconnected from it all. Mike wonders how he didn't get covid during his trip to Las Vegas last week. Trevor Bauer was a big topic and now he's suing Deadspin and The Athletic for defamation. How did Deshaun Watson get away with 22 cases and if you're a Cleveland fan are you able to root for Watson if he wins a Super Bowl? Sports is a cesspool and that leads to Luke's diatribe about Aldis being a Nazi corporation. We hit the emails as always and Danny wants to know what was a positive thing that happened to us today. Luke thinks Batman is a scumbag who isn't helping people. The HBO show Winning Time recently showed an up close vagina being fingered and the guys wonder why there aren't more dicks in movies and TV shows. Brian writes in about Severance, Licorice Pizza and what happened at the Oscars with Will Smith and Chris Rock. Everybody is sad about Paul Thomas Anderson losing his way as a story teller. It's a tragedy. Mike rides for Oscar winner Coda and the dude who won best supporting actor. Of course we talk about the Oscars incident. Don't think we're above that. We close the show with Celebration by Kanye West. Give us your thoughts on any of this nonsense by emailing [email protected]
John Scott is on location so Luke and Govier hold it down for this one. Mike is heading to Las Vegas even though he is broke.

The guys reminisce about it which leads to Mike recalling his teenage days working the drive-thru at fast food joints. Schmitt's Gay makes an appearance on the show. The guys then ponder the 90s, homosexuality and how Adam Sandler in a way is. bizarro ally of the gay community.

Put the lime in the coconut and drink it all up. Scott needs a doctor this week. We forgot about 311 day last week. Mike doesn't do guilty pleasures when it comes to music and he's not sorry about it. Are you a System of a Down fan? The Prison Song was a staple for Luke and Mike back in the day. March Madness is here and we're all waiting for that One Shining Moment. Remember when Chevy Chase was given his own talk show even though he hates people? Mike has new drops for the show and pulls back the curtain to show you how the sausage is made. Mike used to live in Colorado where you can find the gorgeous Red Rocks music venue. Email time brings up a lot of topics to chat about that are written quite well by our fabulous talk show lovers. We couldn't be more thrilled by your efforts!

Our talk show has spent at least $300 on microphones. Mike gets pissed about the show Gmail account. Thanks to our pal Stevie for the kind words about our show.

Are you like this or do you know people like that? We also have to finish the living in a simulation conversation from last week. We learn what everybody fears the most thanks to a sobering email from Danny. What do you fear? John Scott didn't know who Bruce Wayne was or that he is Batman. The show can't end without a complaint about the gas prices. Give us your thoughts on any of this nonsense by emailing [email protected]

Michigan rolled Michigan State in basketball. Scott is displeased. Righteous Gemstones continue the Danny McBride legacy of brilliant absurd humor. Remember the Newsroom? If you're an Aaron Sorkin lover, you know what time it is. Rob Reiner has become a standard bearer talking head for the neo-libs. Three emails today! Not that's a legit mailbag! Boxing, Ukraine and Fat Tuesday are on the email menu. Luke responds with a ramble about something existential related to discernment. Scott is never gonna have kids. He also contemplates the pain of living and if it's worth it or not. There is also a call to billionaires who don't have meaning to their life. Help people! That will give you meaning no matter what your current disposition is. Somebody said Bezos so you know what that means! Mike wrote some dumb parody songs recently about baseball.
