    Severe Weather, Lake Erie, Secret Service Bathroom Habits, reading & writing is racist, the UK & its troubles.

    Chris, Jay and Angel discussed the severe weather events in the region, including a tornado and the unique weather patterns generated by the Great Lakes. Jay shared his personal experience of being in a 6-foot swell on Lake Erie and Angel expressed concerns about the safety of ferry travel. They also discussed an incident involving a US Secret Service agent who covered a security camera and used the bathroom without authorization in a Massachusetts salon. Jay and Chris expressed frustration at the Secret Service's lack of consideration and respect for private property, and suggested that in a non-emergency situation, Mrs. Harris could have picked the lock to the restroom instead of calling for assistance. We also chatted about the situation in the UK with one of the most silly threats ever made, how a love of reading makes you a klan member, apparently. More stuff, more of the same.

  • Episode CCXXXIII: The Replacement (official)

    well, we went from an assassination attempt to what was probably a coup within the democratic party, making it official that the cackling witch of Commuforniastan will be the DNC nominee. May you live in interesting times. We had a good slate of stuff lined up, however some BREAKING NEWS, FOLKS (read that in Alex Jones' voice) happened.

    Before all of that, we discussed the complete failure of the secret service, and we also discussed an article coming from the Jacobin regarding the impact of Prime Day for our segment called "the commie corner." Surprisingly, there was much to agree with in that article.

  • Episode CCXXXI: Lauren the party girl, self defense questions, the white SUV of Akronistan

    We discussed the recent mass shooting in Akron, Ohio, and the reward offered for information leading to the identification of the suspect. Jay criticized the reward as insufficient and suggested it could be raised to $100,000 to encourage people to come forward with information. The discussion also covered the recent shooting incident in Warren, Ohio, and the nuances of self-defense laws, with Mike, an associate dean at the University of Akron School of Law, explaining the key elements of self-defense claims. Lake emphasized the importance of personal safety and advised against getting into physical altercations, particularly at Rally's, sharing a cautionary example of mutual combat.

    They described Boebert as a lady who appreciates musical theater and who is open to unconventional experiences. They also discussed Boebert's attempts to appeal to voters outside of her traditional base, highlighting the challenge of balancing her uncompromising brand with the need to deliver on issues that matter to Coloradans. Towards the end, they engaged in a humorous discussion about the potential of a three-way video featuring Donald Trump, Lauren Boebert, and Marjorie Taylor Green for fundraising purposes. They also discussed the aesthetics and effectiveness of holsters for firearms, with Lake expressing concerns about the practicality of the holster shown.

  • Episode CCXXX: Mixtape part II w/professor Dave

    Professor Dave is a regular contributor to the show, a biologist who earned his education at Eastern Michigan University.

    Atlanta Water Crisis and Presidential Candidates

    David and Jay discussed their interest in Atlanta and its history, particularly the 2020 water pipe break incident that caused a state of emergency. They also touched on their professional connections to Emory University Hospital and its work with stem cells, as well as the potential of an unnamed individual running for president. The conversation further delved into the recent water crisis in Atlanta, Georgia, and its implications, including the continuity of prison labor. Lastly, they discussed other cities' water crises, such as Flint, Michigan, emphasizing that such problems should not occur in any community.

    Infrastructure, Climate Change, and Water Resources

    David and Jay discussed the negative impacts of insufficient infrastructure on communities, with a focus on the case of Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) in California. They also explored the issues related to the inadequate design of infrastructure and communities to manage the effects of climate change, as well as the financial and infrastructure problems of Atlanta. The conversation highlighted the importance of water as a critical resource and its significance in the political system. They also discussed the challenges faced by the Atlanta Department of Watershed Management and the issues surrounding its priorities and financial management.

    Water Main Break, Ticket Prices, and Politics

    David and Lake discussed the recent water main break in Atlanta and its impact on Megan Thee Stallion's concert. They also delved into the rising ticket prices in the music industry, the controversy surrounding Ticketmaster's monopoly, and the concept of "bread and circuses" in politics. The pair expressed their disillusionment with the music industry and the negative consequences of the "bread and circuses" strategy in politics, citing examples from ancient Rome and contemporary society. They concluded that unregulated access to this strategy can lead to dependence and catastrophe.

    Jay refused to call Constantinople its new name, claiming he never heard of it and refused to say the name of the country that has occupied the city since 1453.

  • Episode CCXXIX: the mixtape with Professor Dave

    Professor Dave returns for continued discussions on a myriad of topics. The professor shared with the group the historical significance of the white stripe on the back of American army officers' helmets, which aided in their identification during the invasion of Trenton. He also discussed the contribution of Baron Friedrich Wilhelm Augustus von Steuben, a Prussian army veteran, who was invited to join the Continental army at Valley Forge during the Revolutionary War. Von Steuben, who didn't speak English, spent two months training the American soldiers and transformed them into a disciplined army capable of facing the British. David further explained the history of the "Blue Book," a regulation manual for the US Army written by von Steuben during the Revolutionary War.

    Discussing International Elections and Power Centralization
    They discussed the upcoming US election and the recent violence in Mexico's election, with Jay stating that this year's election season was the bloodiest in modern history. They highlighted the significance of the elections held in various countries around the world, including the Philippines, India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Mexico, and El Salvador, and the role of organized crime in the Mexican elections. They also discussed the implications of the election results in Mexico, the centralization of power under the executive branch, and the performance of the media. Lastly, they touched on the political situation in Mexico, with David sharing updates on the upcoming election and the ruling party's aim to secure a super majority in Congress to erode checks and balances on the executive branch. Lastly, they touched on the new Mexican president's ties to the Jewish space laser conspiracy and engaged in a humorous discussion about Jay's request for a new horse. Professor Dave is a trained biologist, earning his degree from Eastern Michigan University.

  • Episode CCXXVIII: more of the same from Akron. Again.
    More of the same. We discussed a shooting incident near Joy Park and Hood Market convenience store. They shared their thoughts on the authenticity of Hood Market and a potential alliance with Mo. Vapes, a closed store in Canton, Cleveland Avenue. Additionally, Chris shared his ambition to make Akron as similar to Detroit as possible, while Jay recounted his negative experiences in downtown Detroit and a desolate area outside the city. Lastly, Lake informed Chris that their friend Kennedy, a cybersecurity graduate, would be moving to San Francisco to provide a unique perspective on the city for their podcast.
    Former President's Conviction and Political Motivations
    As expected, we discussed the recent conviction of a former U.S. President for falsifying business records related to an alleged affair. They discussed the potential political motivations behind the charges, with chris suggesting it was a politically motivated case. They also discussed the possibility of the former President appealing the conviction and the potential implications of this case, including the setting of a dangerous precedent.
    Zin, Nicotine Pouches, and US Politics
    We got onto the controversy surrounding Zin and nicotine pouches, expressing frustration about the politicization of personal choices and the potential for abuse of power. They also commented on the overcorrection in the US political system, with Jay comparing it to playing checkers instead of chess, and the dangers of this approach. They highlighted the hypocrisies and flaws in the US political system, and predicted that the pendulum would swing back in future. They also mentioned the impact of social media and the importance of individual expression.
    Criticism of NYU's Punishment and Protests
    We criticized the punishment imposed on New York University students who protested against the Gaza genocide, including being required to complete a philosophically ambiguous course on integrity. Jay questioned the need for moral reasoning instruction for students who had already protested and expressed his disillusionment with the academic system. He also highlighted the university's failure to uphold its own policies and allow protests that disrupt its operations. Chris agreed with Jay's assessment and suggested that students passionate about causes such as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict should pursue careers in international relations or humanitarian aid instead of participating in disruptive protests.

  • Episode CCXXVII: More of the same from Missouristan, DEI rubrics, EDC prices
    Police Brutality
    We discussed the contact details of Sturgeon Police Department and urged listeners to communicate honestly and peacefully with the department and its chief. They also expressed their concern about police brutality, the lack of trust in the police force, and the actions of a police officer who was seen on camera mistreating a defenseless creature.
    DEI Scoring Rubric and Pronoun Confusion
    We discussed the scoring rubric for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), with Jay emphasizing that showcasing commitment without specifics is not enough. They further discussed the trend of using vague terms and the need for demonstrating a concrete plan for promoting DEI. They also criticized the use of made-up pronouns and the concept of 'neo-pronouns', which they deemed as a new level of insanity. The discussion highlighted the confusion around the terms 'non-binary' and 'gender-fluid', which they both agreed did not compute well.
    Discontent With Rising Concert Ticket Prices
    We expressed discontent with the increasing prices of concert tickets and the associated expenses, such as overpriced food and drinks. jaycriticized the high prices, noting that they often correlate with unpleasant experiences and are unaffordable for many without significant wealth. chris shared his dissatisfaction with current prices, comparing them to much lower prices he paid in the past for shows from prominent bands. Everyone agreed that the trend of exorbitant prices was not justified and criticized the current trend as not cool.
    Critiquing John Stewart's Political Commentary
    The group critiqued John Stewart's political commentary, deeming him an irresponsible and dishonest commentator who misled younger audiences. Jayargued that Stewart's style was full of errors, cliches, and preening, and that college students, who were unacquainted with adult realities, were the primary audience for his show. Lake also discussed the media's coverage of the Iraq War and former US President George W. Bush, suggesting that the media didn't report propaganda but that the truth was distorted. He expressed confusion about why people took The Daily Show, a comedic news program, as a source of real and factual news.

  • Episode CCXXVI: discussing the Nordic model w/Rae

    Balancing Ideals and Realism in Activism

    Rae joined us for an overview of the Nordic model, addressing issues in sex work. The group discussed the tension between anarchist beliefs and the practical realities of exploitation, agreeing on the necessity of taking action to prevent exploitation regardless of personal beliefs. They acknowledged the challenges of balancing ideals with realism and the importance of standing up against issues, despite their inevitability.

    Addressing Prostitution Complexities and Challenges
    We discussed the complexities and challenges related to prostitution. They acknowledged that many women engaged in prostitution have been subjected to abuse and addiction, and that criminalization of prostitution could lead to further exploitation and dangerous working conditions. They also noted that the legalization of prostitution, as exemplified by Germany's approach, has not necessarily resulted in improved conditions for workers, with many coming from exploitative situations and languages backgrounds. They agreed on the need for a more comprehensive approach to address the root causes of prostitution and provide support for those involved. More was discussed at length, check it out! We have the receipts below.
