  • Kickass Party: Webster v Gore

    Politicans love parties and we love watching politicans from afar. But when it comes to the best parties which of these up-all-night ravers is the king: Al "Human Snooze Button" Gore or Daniel "Nosferatu" Webster? 

    What? It's a different meaning of the word "Party"? Forget what I said then.

  • Monument: Phelps v Humphrey

    We take a break from all the silliness for more silliness to consider what makes a good monument and what it means to build a statue and/or ridiculous pointy tower in someone's honor.

  • Forgotten Fathers: Hancock v Rutledge

    It's Independance Day week and we're exploring a few less well-known founding fathers. Too frequently we heap the acheivements of America onto a few men while ignoring the massive work, collaboration, and concessions given by the elected representatives of the time. Let's change that as we look at the presidents of the first two congresses of the United States: John Rutledge and John Hancock.

  • Blank v Blank: Spock v McCormack

    The news is contentious! Was it contentious in the past? It was. Aaron takes a trip back to the 70’s to look at two fringe candidates on either side of Roe v Wade to explore how we got to where we are. It’s sure to not be controversial! Honestly it’s just two short biographies of two presidential candidates who happened to have strong views on abortion. It’s a great time.

  • Wine: Hamblen v Barr

    It's Dennis' birthday! He's gone, but Aaron explores the deeper meaning of Dennis and the presidential candidate from his current location. It's a short episode full of rough people- just the way Dennis would like it.

  • Watergate: McGovern v Significance

    We weren't gonna let the 50th anniversary of Watergate pass without comment! Why would you suspect such a thing? 

    Today on the program Dennis is roaming the Earth so Aaron does a solo show on George McGovern the man destined for overwhelming defeat that Nixon still thought he had to spy on.

  • 31: Commoner v Queso

    It's Aaron's birthday! We celebrate in tradtionally somber PDM fashion by exploring the life of the ecological Paul Revere, Barry Commoner. A successful man who preached ecological totalism, America broadly didn't listen to him then, and aren't showing signs of doing it now.

  • Hickman: Wallace v Moderation

    We're not all better but we all are back! A still raspy Aaron and still magnificent Dennis bumble their way through the crazy story of Henry Wallace the Democrat's once (and future?) standard bearer. 

    They dive into the life of a person who couldn't wait for politics or soviets and ended up losing his political power because of it. This is one of the more interesting vice presidents (not saying much,) so we hope you enjoy it!

  • Free Agency: Palmer v Loyalty

    Oh these lonely days and nights with nary a Budde to hold close. When desondant such as I am I like to think back to the story of ol' John Palmer, party crasher extradionaire.
