Let's Be Treasonable!

Dismayed that "Pride Month" has nothing to do with their beloved Proud Boys, the GOP is working to erode trans rights. But they're not singling trans people out... they're making sweeping efforts to erode *everybody's* rights. Cognitive Dissidents Betty Barnes (aka Liz Stewart), "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson look back at the week that was and what it means for the years to come in a super-sized episode that provides your weekly dose of newsy infotainment… GET DOSED!

The calendar tells us that this is the weekend Americans honor those who have given their lives in service to our country but, considering GOP reluctance to investigate the 1/6 insurrection that killed multiple police officers, maybe we should call it "Short-Term Memorial Day." Cognitive Dissidents Jim Coughlin, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson share their thoughts on the holiday and a number of other topics while delivering your weekly dose of newsy infotainment! GET DOSED!

Sure, Ted Cruz dissed the American military, Matt Gaetz's legal trouble got worse, and the Arizona "audit" fell to pieces but, this week, cognitive dissidents Cat Alvarado, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson chose to go for the easy laughs by tackling light topics like vaccine hesitance and anti-Semitism on what the TV networks might call a "very special episode"... y'know, if they ever bothered to call. Still, it's your weekly dose of newsy infotainment - kick back & GET DOSED!

It was a big week in the news with Cyber Ninjas checking Arizona ballots for bamboo, Mitch McConnell acting like the dumbest Bond villain ever, and the sedition caucus launching their white power tour. But between a wayward Chinese rocket and the sheer joy of being in the same room for the first time in over a year, Cognitive Dissidents Jim Coughlin, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson discussed... well, pretty much everything else. Still, it's your weekly dose of newsy infotainment! GET DOSED!

With the way the Biden Administration has spent their first 100 days knocking it out of the park in the face of GOP intransigence & gaslighting, you might consider skipping the crypto and investing in baseball mitts instead. Get your vaccine on, and then get your weekly dose of newsy infotainment with Cognitive Dissidents Jeffrey Scott Hendrick, Liz Stewart, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson as we look back at the past seven of those hundred days and look ahead to the next 100!

While a number of Americans saw the Chauvin verdict as a sign that we're going to start holding police accountable for their misdeeds, it seems that a number of cops saw it as a sign that they need to get all the murdering out of their systems before he gets sentenced. And you'll open up your eyes and see the sign when you listen to Cognitive Dissidents Ed Greer, Klee Wiggins, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson providing your weekly dose of newsy infotainment!

They say that if you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life. Now, I'm not saying that police in Minnesota *love* to kill unarmed Black men, but it's looking more likely that neither Derek Chauvin nor Kim Potter will ever work another day in their lives. Fortunately, Cognitive Dissidents Katie Massa Kennedy, Liz Stewart, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson love what we do, and we have yet to kill anyone.

The past week reaffirmed a number of things we already knew (or should have known already.) Things like kneeling on someone's neck is bad, Florida Republicans are slime, and - with a little help from WinRed - fools and their money are easily parted. And since you already know all that, all the more reason to wrap up the week with the Cognitive Dissidents you already know; Cat Alvarado, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson! It's your weekly dose of newsy infotainment... GET DOSED!

After a week off for a bit of a sanity break, Cognitive Dissidents Liz Stewart, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson are back at Treasonable Studios (via Skype, but still... it counts) to reflect on a week that was all over the map by going all over the map ourselves, discussing a wide range of Republicans from alleged murderers to alleged child sex-traffickers to John Boehner! Also, vaccines and holiday cooking tips! All that and more in your weekly dose of newsy infotainment! GET DOSED!

Understandably, neither will give Donald Trump the credit he seems to think he deserves. But rather than focus on the deluded rantings of a narcissistic (twice-impeached) lunatic, Cognitive Dissidents Jim Coughlin, Jeffrey Scott Hendrick, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson discuss the real news of the week, canceling the GOP, and, um... "toasted" ravioli. It's your weekly dose of newsy infotainment... GET DOSED!
