Let's Be Treasonable!

What a week! Trump Campaign Chairman Paul Manafort went to jail for alleged witness tampering! But with talk that he may not flip on the President, we're asking you to remind Paul to do the right thing by sending spatulas to: Paul Manafort c/o Northern Neck Regional Jail 3908 Richmond Rd. Warsaw, VA 22572 It's not all about the kitchen utensils, though...Cognitive Dissidents Cat Alvarado, 'The Black Voice of Reason' Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson dive into Trump's twin failures at the G7 Summit and Singapore, America's further slide into theocracy, and the family values that dictate separating children from their parents! Oh, and there's a rim job in there too... just to keep things light. It's your weekly dose of newsy infotainment... Get dosed!

It's beginning to feel like summer and the smell of corruption is thick in the air... which may be why Donald Trump has fled the country to spread his message of ignorance to the *real* global leaders before he heads to Singapore, where he'll either bring us to the brink of nuclear war or give away the store. Sounds crazy, I know, but here in our little town of Anatev...wait, no. Just crazy - no fiddlers. But we *do* have the original Treasonable crew of Cognitive Dissidents; Jim Coughlin, Erika Schickel, 'The Black Voice of Reason' Tymon Shipp, and Dr, David Robinson here to make some sense of the insanity. All that and a 'Burst of Durst' from five-time Emmy nominee Will Durst, and you've got yourself your weekly dose of newsy infotainment! Get dosed!

Though the big series finale of 'Roseanne' was somewhat shocking, it wasn't unexpected. Still, it's much easier for the victims of First Amendment abuse to recover than it is for the victims of Second Amendment abuses. Giving it a shot this week are Cognitive Dissidents Cat Alvarado, 'The Black Voice of Reason' Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson, with an assist from five-time Emmy nominee Will Durst! In this week's thrilling episode we discuss why conspiracists are Trumping logic and facts, how Trump's trade war is sending our long-time allies packing and opening the door for Russia, Sarah Huckabee Sanders' close call with humanity, and how a rising tide may lift all boats but lowering the bar on discourse can send you seaward. Or "c-word," depending on how you read it. However you choose to read it, it's your weekly dose of newsy infotainment! GET DOSED!

As we go into the long holiday weekend, our thoughts turn to those who gave their lives for the freedoms we enjoy... while we still can. Cognitive Dissidents Liz Stewart, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson take a look back at a week in which a promising Korea turned into another Trump snow job. Ireland made abortion legal while our government strengthened policies to ensure that you have the baby and then just wait until the kid's old enough to get shot at school. But hey... at least the First Amendment is safe... as long as you don't play for the NFL. All that and a 'Burst of Durst' from five-time Emmy nominee Will Durst, and you've got yourself your weekly dose of newsy infotainment! GET DOSED!

As The United States continues its slide into chaos, your Cognitive Dissidents Cat Alvarado, 'The Black Voice of Reason' Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson take a look at Nicaragua to see where we're heading, as well as the Trump Administration's continued war against women, and whether torturing people is worse than destroying the evidence that you tortured people... even if you don't acknowledge them as people. All that and a 'Burst of Durst' in which five-time Emmy nominee Will Durst wishes a happy birthday to the Mueller investigation! It's your weekly dose of newsy infotainment... Get dosed!

In a week that began with outrage over Michelle Wolf calling Sarah Huckabee Sanders a liar and ended with incontrovertible proof that Sarah Huckabee Sanders is a liar... well, that pretty much says it all. Of course, there was also Rudy Giuliani going on TV with the facts - but not the "alternative facts" - continuing scandal at the EPA, and so much more! Cognitive Dissidents Katie Massa Kennedy, Jessica Abrams, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp and Dr. David Robinson are in the studio to break it all down for you. Add in a 'Burst of Durst' from five-time Emmy nominee Will Durst, and you've got yourself your weekly dose of newsy infotainment! GET DOSED!

From the fire at Trump Tower in Baku to the dumpster fire that is the Trump Administration and beyond, the Cognitive Dissidents at LBT cover lots of ground this week. Cat Alvarado calls in from Atlanta to talk about #SOSNicaragua with Jim Coughlin, 'The Black Voice of Reason' Tymon Shipp and Dr. David Robinson, and the conversation turns to the President's incoherent ramblings on a phone call that left his Friends at FOX perplexed. Also, Paul Ryan throws himself under a bus while pushing a priest out of the House, Kanye weighs in, and Cosby checks out. It's a thrilling week in news and a jam packed episode providing your weekly dose of newsy infotainment! Get dosed!

In a world where confusion isn't just a lifestyle, (it's *also* a political strategy!) it's nice to know that our Ambassador to the UN doesn't get confused. Which is all the more impressive when you consider the Comey memos, a GOP Congress that's unwilling to defend the Constitution, the doublespeak of Alex Jones, and a coffee shop that doubles as a microcosm of American society... or something like that. Cognitive Dissidents Dr. David Robinson and 'The Black Voice of Reason' Tymon Shipp make things a little less confusing with an assist from five-time Emmy nominee Will Durst and this week's 'Burst of Durst'! It's your weekly dose of newsy infotainment! Get dosed!

...And Ryan, and Mulvaney, and Syria? It's been a busier week than most for the fourth estate. The week started with one of Trump's tenants getting burned (and not in the way he *usually* burns his tenants,) and ended with him bombing in the Middle East (and not in the way he *usually* bombs in the Middle East.) Need to make some sense of it all? No need to go see the Wizard because Cognitive Dissidents Dr. David Robinson and 'The Black Voice of Reason' Tymon Shipp are here to do just that. Even better, five-time Emmy Nominee Will Durst weighs in with this week's 'Burst of Durst!' It's your weekly dose of newsy infotainment! Get dosed!

On this week's episode of 'Let's Be Treasonable,' Cognitive Dissidents Dr. David Robinson and 'The Black Voice of Reason' Tymon Shipp take a look at the sense of entitlement to a venue that leads to incidents like this week's shooting, Laura Ingraham mistaking the privilege of having a job for the right to her 15 minutes, and one virtually unknown racist comedian falling further into obscurity. All that, the Russians and a 'Burst of Durst' from five-time Emmy Nominee Will Durst! It's your weekly dose of newsy infotainment! Get dosed!
