Mechanical Freak

Greg, Brian, and Colin are joined by venerable historians (Dr.) Kevin and Bradley, to talk about the District 3 race between incumbent Kshama Sawant and a sketch of a one dimensional protagonist scrawled in crayon in the margins of the first page of an unpublished Young Adult novel laying in darkness next to a loaded gun confined to a locked desk drawer, Egan Orion.

Greg and Brian sell you a new grift, discover the unwholesome truth about the navigation teams, and effectively crash this podcast into the ground like it’s a Boeing product in yet another wasted hour without Colin’s guiding hand.

Greg and Brian read a solicitation from one Egan Orion before talking about The Stranger’s stupefying cover ad on their recent endorsements issue, and the City Council endorsements from very Real Boy, Christopher Rufo, and the Seattle Police Officers Guild (SPOG).

Greg, Brian, and Colin talk about Bill Gates, Shaun Scott’s promised appearance at the Seattle Police Officers Guild (SPOG) Public Safety Forum, recent violence related to policing in Dallas, murder outside of a bar in Portland, and KOMO’s vacuous, medieval, and coprophilic followup to “Seattle is Dying,” “A Tale of Three Cities.”

Greg and Brian talk Central Perk pop-up, a food and history (as in class) shortage in Seattle public schools, and more systems of bowel control (for students this time).

Greg, Brian, and Colin examine the “Portland Loo” from all angles, and Mayor Durkan appears to lean on the ACLU w/r/t public criticisms of her police reform plan (or lack thereof). Subscribe for access to all our premium episodes. https://www.patreon.com/seattlesucks

Greg, Brian, and Colin talk Boeing in light of the New Republic’s “Crash Course.”

Read “Crash Course” in the New Republic

Greg, Brian, and Colin talk movies (sorry) before delving into conditions in the King County Jail (we hope you like lead) and Mayor Durkan’s plan to expand its use as an ad hoc shelter, and we hear a harrowing tale from the Seattle Times about police inception and the standing up of vigilantes in pursuit of their property.
