This week, we react to the news of Derek Chauvin's conviction, discuss a story of a drill sergeant who got arrested for assault and battery of an unarmed Black man because he has a terminal case of cop brain, and all the reasons why it is incumbent on veterans to debaathify their own heads.

For this week's bonus, we ask important questions. Why does Missouri produce so many bonkers politicians? Why is it that, in order to get elected, you have to be full on blood-and-soil white nationalist? Well, we happen to have two Missouri experts here to give you the lowdown on what the national GOP will be in about 5-10 years. Joining us once again is friend of the show Brock Wilbur, a KCMO resident and a long-suffering observer of the state's politics. Get it on Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/50180777
