So much happened this week. Tony gives some inside information on the story of a high school basketball team throwing tortillas at their Hispanic opponents, the guys discuss Whispery Joe Biden's plan to pay for a new infrastructure bill, and get into what happened when some fish drank antidepressant water.

The Powers That Be tried to silence the Church of Perch (or Dylan fucked up the recording), so this week we've got just one story. David breaks down some unfolding drama in the world of Youtube leftists and makes a case for how easy it is to weaponize identity politics.

The guys dive deep on America's problems with student loan debt. They tackle arguments for and against loan forgiveness programs and universal free education, explain how for profit colleges and a broken accreditation system are partially to blame for the 2000% increase in tuition costs, and draw some scary parallels to the housing crisis of 2008.

The guys talk about the removal of Benjamin Netanyahu from power in Israel, try to figure out if Rand Paul is actually smart, get into the nitty gritty of a hilarious poll about vaccine hesitancy, and get an update on the AZ election audit.

The guys check in on the q-anon movement and try to figure out where they went one - because presumably there they went all . They cover the January 6th insurrection, the attempts by the movement to assimilate into mainstream political culture, and discuss how political extremism on both sides of the aisle leads to outright facist agendas.

The boys get into some wild stories from the week, including the White House attempting to access journalists' emails to uncover sources, the low vaccination rates among hospital workers, and a listener update about the efficacy of robot policing. Plus a straight up outlandish speech from a guest lecturer at Yale University sparks a conversation about some of the glaring issues with identity politics.

The guys get a lot done on this one. They discuss Derek Chauvin's plea for no prison time and the new coalition to oust Benjamin Netanyahu from power in Israel, then make a case for robo cops, solve America's homelessness crisis, and check in on neekolul, the Okay Boomer girl.

What's this?! A Wednesday dispatch?! The guys get into Biden's weird Juneteenth speech, a bizarre change to sex abuse laws in the Catholic Church, Andrew Cuomo getting in trouble on memorial day, and a whole lot more.

This is truly a milestone episode. The guys debate David's rat park theory - a contentious topic in Pause for Parrots lore - in which he makes the case that late stage capitalism is to blame for drug addiction rates in America, due to Capitalism's proclivity towards the commodification of social interaction, misuse of the criminal justice and public health system, and general erosion of community building.

The guys dive into some stories from the week, including an update on the Jeffery Epstein suicide investigation, the legal defense of the Capitol insurrectionists, a controversial BLM leader, and a secession movement in the Western United Sates.
