  • "For Shame": The Demonization of Human Sexuality
    How can there be a patriarchy in the free world? How can a world that does not recognize the consequences of its own actions truly be free? Are we ahead of the curve or are we just in denial when it comes to a woman's right to express her sexuality in America? "Progress", as many of us are so apt to call it, has a funny way of numbing us to our surroundings. We say ourselves working frantically to reach some greater goal, and we say to ourselves, "wow, I am really accomplishing something here; I have it so much better than my ancestors did because, well, just look at all these wonderful things that I am doing." We forget that our ancestors most likely thought the very same thing about their ancestors, and so on. Every society believes they have defeated all evils, and that they are, of course, superior to other, more twisted and evil, societies. Obviously America must be sans patriarchy because America is the greatest nation in the world, or whatever the hell you want to say this week. We can pretend women are allowed to express themselves all we like, but the reality is that, when the female figure is involved, far too many American men act like puritans on an acid trip. Men continue to believe it is their right to tell women what to do with their bodies, not only in the idiotic way of limiting contraception and abortion rights, but also by instructing women how to dress and speak, especially when it comes to their sexuality. 
    The double standard is very clear. The ugliest men that no one wants to see are allowed to go shirtless while women are called names for showing a small portion of a non sexual gland while feeding their child; it just doesn't make any damn sense. Sexual promiscuity is pretty much accepted for men in America; I am not necessarily saying it is encourage all of the time, but there is almost a congratulatory appreciation amongst men for their sexual prowess. Women, on the other hand, are scorned for being too "loose", a term which sounds like the utterance of an 18th century hellfire and brimstone preacher. Even when women are completely covered, often times in ways that are already uncomfortable to them, they are still criticized for wearing the clothing in a way that is too revealing. This reveals a very deep hatred of femininity in general, which is at the heart of the American political dialectic. The founding fathers laid claim to women in their laws, stating whom the could and could not marry, essentially claiming, wrongly, that women belonged to men, not just to their husbands, but to wealthy, property owning men. With laws the relegate women's bodies in such demeaning ways, it is no wonder that such a violent wave of anti-feminist sentiment has swept across America. 
    Domestic violence, as we know, is through the roof. What are the implications of that tragic statistic? Is this outburst of physical violence somehow related to this desire for control that is written in our very law books? Are we simply re-enacting the sins of our unholy fathers? It is probably a lot more complex than that; life is not that cut and dry. However, I still believe it is important to call into question the true desires of any movement when it comes to the censorship and control of human sexuality. What are the motives of these people? Why do they have such an interest in the amount of children you breed? Are their demands even scriptural? Do they even believe the same holy book you do? The same interpretation? Is the limitation of the female sex drive a way of forcing the woman back into her fore mother's kitchen? I have a feeling the answer just might be a bit more oppressive than you are prepared to admit. 
    There are men in the world that are so spiteful and hateful of women that they are willing to take decisive legal and physical action to evoke their revenge. What will we do about it? We won't stay silent. It's time to speak out on More Content Talk.

  • American Eugenics: The Origins of Trumpism and The Christian Right
    Eugenics is the nonsensical idea that we can somehow manipulate human breeding, and produce so called "good stock", a silly term that is essentially an insult to anyone who is not anglo-saxon christian. Such an archaic ideal would seem primitive were it not for the rise of Donald Trump, but, alas, you cannot change the past. However, you can change the present and in order to do that we must examine our history, not matter how difficult to deal with it may be. 
    It becomes quite difficult in this episode as we examine in depth the genesis of the eugenics movement, which began on a large scale right here in the United States. Though it may be sickening to admit, eugenics has been behind many of the laws enacted in this nation. But where  did it all start? The answer is with Carrie Buck, a woman who would go on to be sterilized after losing a court case in the US supreme court. The court determined Buck was unfit to be a mother due to her "criminal behavior" and "promiscuity". But was there any basis behind these claims? Was Buck a criminal or a victim? And, further, did the United States ever have the right to police promiscuity in the first place? In all honesty, these are questions I once thought I would never have to ask, but with the rise of eugenics like movements such 6MWE (a disgusting reference to holocaust victims) and the proud boys, along with the recent insurrections, I felt it was necessary to get the message out about American eugenics to as many as possible. 
    What is the cost of peace? What is the price we pay for not taking a stand for anything in a world that disagrees on everything? Can you be neutral on a moving train? History does not seem to think so. It seems that if you allow those with malevolent intent to form strongholds in government institutions that the last thing you are going to experience is peace. It seems like you might have an all out war on your hands.But what if no one wants to fight that war? Or, worse, what if only the malevolent people are interested in even showing up to the fight? That is the situation we are currently facing in this country. I don't know anyone standing up for decency, but I sure hear a lot of people talking about peace. Standing up is considered passe these days, especially if it is for something worthwhile. Talk is cheap, and peace is expensive.
    Peace leads to complicity and the acceptance of the things we can change. We don't need to learn to deal with it like the right has been telling us to do for years. We don't need to be told that love is the answer again. We have heard that before. We know that you just want us to shut up, go back to work and die. Your token attempts at charity and giving are completely meaningless in these conditions. Your constant hunt for peace has only resulted in more war.
    So, how do we become less polarized during this resurgence of eugenics? Should we become less polarized when the very problem before was that so few people cared? Is peace just a more honorable form of apathy? You have to ask yourself those questions. The answers are different for everyone. However, history never changes. American history has blood on its hands, and it is up to you to clean it. Join me as I analyze a tragic subject on More Content Talk.

  • The Art of The Scam: A History Of Snake Oil Sales in America
    By now, you've most likely realized that a lot of people are acting pretty dumb, regardless of how intelligent they are. It is easy to write this plague of anti-intellectualism off as some sort of phase caused by quarantine, but that would only make sense if people were actually staying at home. As we all know, many people are still carrying on with their lives as covid 19 did not even exist, even though doctors are now predicting daily deaths in the 5,000s as early as next month. Meanwhile, people continue to bicker over whether or not public safety and health regulations are too draconian.  Many people have ended relationships over this seemingly never-ending wave of science denial, yet it has persisted. What makes this delusions so powerful, and why do otherwise rational people follow them? In this episode of More Content Talk I analyze the history of snake oil salesmanship in the united states of America.  In this episode I explain how celebrity, money, power, and faith combine into a potent formula for hatred and division. The story often goes that we are scammed into believing pseudoscience, but how does this happen? Is there a secretive elite clique or external threat manipulating us from behind the scenes? Or is the mental breakdown happening from within? We clearly demonstrate america's dangerous flirtations with the insane as "science" in a historical context. What we found was not some secretive plot to control the world, but a society desperate for fantasy as opposed to knowledge. While it may be comforting to assume that powerful idealogues with quack theories are rare, american history paints quite a different picture. It has in fact been the historic reaction of americans to criticize intellectuals and experts. The demand for a more egalitarian society has weakened our scientific understanding by elevating pseudoscience to the realm of religion. Our need for fantasy in the face of adversity has blinded us to our reality. This disdain for reality has resulted in a snake oil more powerful than any con-artist could conjure. In our attempt to make everyone feel included by pandering to their beliefs, we have created a culture that does not really stand for anything, unless they are standing against those who do. Being contrary does not necessarily mean you are a revolutionary, but an increasing number of Americans, in their hunt for a return to the good old days, seem to think this is somehow needed. When proven systems are question by charlatans and quacks the thread that holds society together begins to become a bit too tight for its own good; eventually, it snaps. What are we searching for that we don't already have? Why is the most advanced civilization in the known universe also the most beholden to superstition? Are we doomed to repeat this foolish history? Is there a way out of our constant need for less when there is more, and more when there is less? Is the scam artist the antithesis to civilization or is he the manifestation of civilization, a kind of culmination of our wildest dreams, morphing into our darkest nightmares before our very eyes? Our institutions are malfunctioning, but no more than they have in the past. America was shrouded in pseudo science from its inception, and it is far past time that we dealt with it. Will you take a bite from the tree of folly? Chances are, you already have. Join us as we tame the serpent on More Content Talk.

  • National Fraud: The Racist Daze
    In this episode of More Content Talk I analyze the racist ass rhetoric behind the Republican...I mean, completely coincidental insurrection that occurred at the Capitol building and across the nation at various federal buildings as well. Instead of focusing on unity with bigots, I tear down their veneer of kindness, and civility conservatives like to pretend that they have. I expose white supremacy for what it is, a cancer that must removed or destroyed before it destroys everything that comes in its path. It is expected that the Republican party, which has unabashedly fanned the flames of racism for decades to gain votes in this nation, would come to the defense of these white, christian, extremists terrorists. The GOP's entire party platform is killing people, whether it be through starvation (cutting food stamps), not providing healthcare or limiting abortion, which eventually leads to starvation, health problems and death. I expect nothing more than criminality from the GOP because they align themselves with terrorist organizations like the NRA, KKK, LAPD, NYPD, Proud Boys, Boogaloo Boys, militias, and neo-nazis. I would go as far as to say that any group of people who does not expect violent insurrection from these groups, as they openly discuss online everyday, is either incredibly stupid or working with them. I can tell you assuredly that the answer is both.
    Republican and Democratic sycophants who have the audacity to act as slapping 60 terrorists on the wrist is adequate punishment after their disgusting verbal and physical attacks on Black Lives Matter and Antifa, is the greatest crime that these so called politicians have ever committed against the American people. The constant lies and pandering to racist conservatives, the calls for unity when it is clear that only the right has done anything wrong, has completely eroded any confidence I have in the legal justice system in the United States. The American criminal justice system is a farce; it is a gang of local, state and federal thugs who patrol the streets to ensure that crime prevails. These gangs should not be trusted by black people, or even liberals for that matter. The national guard is no different, and has consistently acted in a manner that has been so brutal to the black community that every citizen should be calling for its removal or replacement. 
    But instead we see the usual bullshit excuses and apologist rhetoric that racists have always enjoyed in this nation. The moderate minded folks simply tell us to "get over it", "don't exaggerate", "it's not all cops", "now kiss my ass and go get me a coffee." No, not this time. No more mister nice guy. No more, "we'll get around to black people next election cycle". If this government has chosen to ignore the concerns of blacks and liberals, so be it. I will not come to these people with my hand held out and begging to be accepted any longer. I will not ask permission to lead a normal life. I will not marvel at the great white American dream, as we are expected to. I will call that dream for what it is: a lie. 
    There is a coordinated effort, by all people in government, to maintain white Christian hegemony and dominance. The biggest mistake of all is assuming that this racism and hatred will end of January 20th. That would only be the case if you had a people that wanted it to end. But what do you always hear these days? Scores of white people screaming that "they want things to go back to normal". Normal was hell for black America, and it always has been. Black people don't want to go back to normal; they want to to accepted as equals for the first time in American history. Black Lives Matter asked for acceptance and all they got was a club to the face. I'm not asking for acceptance anymore. If you won't give blacks what they deserve, I'll make a mockery of your system and values. The pen is mightier than the national guard.

  • Divine Insurrection
    Unfortunately, Indiana Jones will not be joining us for this unholy adventure. We couldn't help but put together a special episode of More Content Talk to cover the current chaos that has gripped the United States from a no bullshit perspective. Since right wing media pundits and bandits are already sewing their disinformation into your search engines, the time for liberal media to speak up is more urgent than ever. It is quite disturbing that I even heard about the two supposed antifa members who may have been present while the capital was stormed. There were thousands of terrorists at the building today, and the government has not responded in kind. America looks an absolute mess, and, quite frankly, everyone should be embarrassed. 
    Truth be told, our government was caught with their pants down, completely unprepared for a threat that so many suspected was coming. Right wing media had been openly discussing the siege on the capital building, and the government did nothing to prevent this. The national guard took their sweet ass time and so did the police force, apart from the capital police and bodyguards, who suffered injuries due to the national guard's negligence. What happened to all that talk about us having a strong military? Are you aware that the vast majority of your supposed "stimulus bill" was full of military spending, over a trillion dollars worth? Yet they cannot even prevent a bunch of bible thumping morons from breaching out capital with a confederate flag? Shame on the United States government and shame on us for excusing their inaction, again. 
    Various leftist organizations have been brutalized immediately for staging such protests, many have been killed. What we saw today was exceptionalism at its finest, and the complete acceptance of it by our elected officials. Instead of rebuking the attackers and calling them thugs immediately, the pussyfooted around the issue as usual, and tried to make these people seem like peaceful protestors. Even the media continues to use the term protestors instead of terrorists. They were terrorists plain and simple. This should not be difficult to comprehend: Waco, McVeigh, Kazinksy, 9/11, etc. There are plenty of examples of domestic terrorist attacks we could go into that did not reach this level of insanity upon the decent people who still live in this country. 
    Four people lost their lives today, along with many more from Covid, because this government has repeatedly failed to care for its citizens in any, way, shape or form. We are now at the whim of a childish, self-centered group of morons who seemingly have their heads shoved so far up their own egos that they have forgotten about the civil rights issues that have never been resolved in this country. Why on earth were all of these leaders calling for counter protestors to stay home? What is the end game of telling the only people who will fight back to sit on their hands? Why unleash paranoid thugs on the anti christ beast system? Won't god do that for you?
    I don't know how you can continue to trust these people. I don't know why they are tolerated. I don't know why people continue to ignore that they are a threat to us all. But that is exactly what America has done tonight. They have swept another threat under the carpet, and proven even more that they just don't give a damn about us or our safety. The republican party is officially a crime syndicate full of christianized liars and criminals, not that it wasn't before. Join me on More Content Talk to discuss the trials and tribulations of the right's holy savior, and tear apart the myth of competent government in an America that does not give a damn about poor people, the very people who run the country itself: we, the people...

  • Always Left Behind: Being on the Left in a World Only Concerned with What's Right
    Joe  Biden hasn't even set foot in the White House yet, and establishment  Democrats are already shoving their foots up the left's collective ass.  In this episode we examine the myth of a strong far left in the United  States, something that has not truly existed since the 1930s, when FDR saved America, and, ironically enough, capitalism, with a series of taxes on America's wealthy class. Because of this fact, many hopeful liberals have been expecting, very wrongly in my opinion, that there may be some hope that democrats in Congress would put up some kind of a fight for more liberal policies. Unfortunately, this has proven to be mostly false.
    The new class of progressives in Washington have not made much of an impact at all, and have instead chosen to go along with the party line. Meanwhile, the constituents they promised to stand up for are constantly bled of campaign donations, and time while the pandemic rages on. Mind you that liberals were disproportionately effected by job losses during the pandemic. Many entertainers, waiters and teachers are mostly liberal. Further, liberals tend to work more gig jobs than conservatives. Is it any wonder that we have been screaming for help so loudly? Many of us were literally left in the dust during the first stimuless bill. It was not enough then. Further, many of us are still having problem receiving money we were initially owed. All of this should have resulted in a stimulus check that was larger than the first, not smaller. Instead, the bill was cut in half, and the nation was silent. 
    Had this been Trump's doing, democrats would have been all over him, but now of course we hear silence. Is this a sign of things to come? Should we just prepare for more of the status quo? Business as usual in Washington? It seems like that is what people are really saying when they talk about "going back to normal". Normal is mediocrity in America. It is settling for the what we are given, and letting the woes of this earth flutter away with a tweet or two. You would think that this obvious win for establishment mediocrity, and ultimately abject failure, would cause moderates to relax, but they are still gloating about their superior ability to bore the market to death, and blaming their failures on the imaginary left. You know, the one that just voted with them lock, stock and barrel...again. 
    We examine  this delusional storybook world where socialism reigns supreme while  having no influence whatsoever; a wonderful magical land where phony progressives in ten thousand dollar suits argue with even older moderates fifty thousand dollar suits about how they will screw working people out of money this week. We examine the close relationships  between moderate Democrats and extremist right wingers, and how they  work together to distort truth, and maximize profits. We discuss the  consequences this unholy union has had on the health and well-being of  American citizens, as well as how it alienates the youth from their families, ultimately causing them to seek solace with far right organizations and ideologies, not because they are correct, but because, sometimes, that is all there is. We also discuss how Democrats continue to lose ground  with real leftists the more they bow to big corporations. Finally, we  look at how major media and entertainment work together to demonize the  super kung fu radical socialist left that only seems to exist in the  minds of paranoid "intellectuals". Join us as we discover how the  radical right and boring democrats worked together to destroy everything  fun, and halfway decent about America. Will Joe Biden be any different?  Does Congress actually do anything? Will Gavin Newsome have $200 or  $500 dollar wine when he breaks quarantine next time?

  • Happy Screw Year: Saying Goodbye to Stupid
    If stupid is as stupid does, then 2020 sure was. We take a brief break from the serious side of podcasting, whatever that means, to review this year in stupid. Other podcasts will talk about the highs and lows of 2020, but we just want to talk about how dumb it was, and trust us, it was dumb! We talk about President Stupid and his stupid followers, as well as the stupid conspiracy theories that gave all of the idiots an avenue to be so stupid. We also discuss the recent obsession with escapism, and a return to "a simpler time", which has really never existed. What are Americans running from? What motivates them to turn to fantasy? Why are so many people unsatisfied with what they have? Why does reality seem to repel Americans so much?  And, of course, why are people so damn dumb? Apart from the obvious reasons, we go into a bit of the psychology of end times philosophies. We discuss why the sense of impending doom can actually bring comfort to those who are desperate, especially the needy. When one is suffering immensely, it can be reassuring knowing that there is something more to life than what you have. However, this can be dangerous as well. It can motivate people to devalue the life that they have now, which, in reality, may be the only one they ever have.  From drinking bleach, to hoarding led based hand sanitizer, 2020 was quite possibly the dumbest year ever. Has dumb had its day in America? Maybe for a little while. But, as the saying goes, you can't fix stupid. What is our new year's resolution at MCP? Be less stupid! It really does help you feel less dumb. Join us for a fun discussion on More Content Talk.

  • Canceled Dreams Hurt More Than Cancel Culture
    Gross, it smells like pomp and circumstance in here! Join me as I take on the role of the cancel vulture, and sift through the remains of far right propaganda. Cancel culture is often portrayed as a leftist invention, but it has always existed in some form. From tribal banishment, to burning books and even murder, cancel culture has always existed in the realm of entertainment. But now it seems to be more prevalent than ever. Why is that?
    Because the consumer paid good money for it, and it is their right to stop paying for it at any time. When celebrities put us to sleep, we do not want to pay for them anymore, and if we have to, you're going to hear an insult or two. It seems that the talent pools has simply shrunk for Hollywood. But, beyond that there also seems to be a huge disconnect between today's high paid entertainers and their underpaid consumers. So, how did this become an issue? Why is it that celebrities today are cancelled far more often than they were only twenty years ago? 
    During the show, I analyze how celebrities have changed over the years so much that most normal people cannot tolerate them anymore. I look at how they have completely abandoned the working people, and have instead become secular preachers behind bully pulpits. But this show ends up being about much more than Hollywood celebrities. 
    We also look at how political and intellectual celebrities create the veneer of progress and change, while leaving real people behind, and often times directly endangering them. The media often times talks about apathy in the American people. But we take a look at the root of that apathy, delving into the hard truth that both sides of the aisle are often against the will of the people. Is there a conspiracy to control us all? No, they just want our money as usual. 
    It is no coincidence that everyone from the left, the right and in between are bemoaning cancel culture. It is indeed quite lucrative to portray yourself as a martyr; that's a really popular idea in America for those who didn't know. We call it out when a preacher shuns a church member for not following his dictates, but whenever an audience member dislikes a joke, the fans come out in full force. Are jokes about rich people allowed in the age of covid? Should we make sure that every celebrity feels wanted by us? Or are we allowed to mock them to highlight political and social maladies? Or, dare I say, and, wait for it, could the answer be both? Find out on this rather hilarious version of More Content Talk.

  • Stimulost: How The Congrinch Stole Christmas
    On this episode of More Content Talk, we are pleased to welcome William Caldwell, who is an awesome actor and all around badass. Don't miss this Christmas tale of lies and deception, as the Congrinch spins its tangled web of cheap ass trickle down economics. We cut through the bullshit, and look at what really goes on in Washington, and no, it doesn't involve any conspiracy theories. 
    We talk about how the reality of Congress is that it is mostly owned by and beholden to major corporations. Though there are some people in congress who are well meaning, that number is constantly under threat by major conspiracy theory campaigns, which attempt to smear liberal candidates amongst the hyper religious. It is no coincidence that members of the right see certain liberal policies as demonic. Their pastors instruct them that this is so, and therefore they believe it. As I have made clear, the right does not give a damn about anything other than Jesus.
    With a right that is more than willing to use its idiotic base to hijack our government, and everything we hold dear, now more than ever is the time to stand up and be heard. However, so called "liberal" intellectuals, or celebrities, whatever you like, continue to push issues like civil rights, and financial security to the back burner. 
    We discuss how the left can no longer stay quiet if it has any future at all in America. We also discuss the myth of the "radical woke left", which of course began during the communist scare of the 1950s. We make direct connections between the communist scare, and how leftists are still silenced in the media and entertainment today. We also reject the notion that being more moderate and working together with people who are obviously interested in theocracy is quite insane. We also make the argument that progressive policies are specifically targeted and demonized by major corporations via their puppet congress members. 
    We also briefly discuss Congress' hyper religious nature, and how the far right has really been a major part of the republican party since the 1980s, though it was far more subdued back then. We also look at how the republican party literally rewrote biblical scripture to regain political power. We also discuss how the supposedly secular government has an overwhelming amount of theocratic morons in it. 
    Further, we very correctly predict the way Congress member on both sides failed to work together, and really were never interested in doing so. We discuss how Congress has now essentially become useless, and either needs to be reformed or rethought entirely. I suppose you could disagree, but while you reading this, the Congrinch who stole Christmas has stolen your money! Find out how, on More Content Talk.

  • Brain Wanting: Searching for Meaning with an Unwashed Brain
    Brain Washing: it's the default reason for everything from why you buy certain brands of toothpaste to how leaders gain political influence. There always seems to be some secret cabal manipulating us from beyond the shadows. The secret conspiracy trends in all kinds of circles, countries and cultures. Whether it is the threat of terrorism abroad or the threat of socialism at home there is always a boogeyman. But where did this sense of impending doom originate? Was it placed there by some evil force or was it simply there all along? 
    The human brain can be extremely deceptive, causing people to experience vivid hallucinations that seem real to even a neurologist, but we somehow still believe that we are in complete control of it. The brain itself can cause the greatest intellect to spiral into madness all because of our persistent fear of the unknown. Must there always be a reason for things? Can't things simply happen by coincidence? In this day and age, whether you are talking to the left or the right, it seems as if the answer is a resounding no. Apparently things always happen for a reason, even though no one can agree on the exact reason it happened in the first place.
    Is reason the answer or just another distraction from the truth? Why are we constantly searching for reason in a world that is seemingly random and coincidental? Are bad people unreasonable or have they use their intellect to arrive at conclusion you deem unreasonable? Who is the god of reason and where its bible? Or is reason simply up to interpretation, like the bible? 
    Is there even such a thing as a sound mind? Does every individual experience the world the same way? Should they? Is reason the best guide in a world that cannot even agree on what reason is? 
    Perhaps there is no secret plan to control the mind, and we have all deceived ourselves. Perhaps the answer is that people are different, and respond differently, which means, of course, that it is impossible to predict human behavior. Perhaps, gasp...we don't know as much about ourselves as we think we do. Join me for a fun discussion on More Content Talk.
