In this episode, I travel from Dr. Drew to Eudaimonia to a chicken curry recipe.

This is the TedTalk video by Jay Kannaiyan I discussed and this is this the chicken curry recipe.

I am a white rural Trump voter. In this episode, I respond to the book White Rural Rage: The Threat to American Democracy by Paul Waldman and Tom Schaller.

Does any of it ring true for me?

In this episode, I explore what traits Alexander the Great and Donald Trump share in common.

Both were "great" men and in this episode, I explore how and why they became great.

My response on the recent Supreme Court case addressing whether state can bar President Trump from running for President under the 14th Amendment rebellion or insurrection clause.

In this I explore how Brian and Kirk Ferentz can learn from a chimpanzee named pork pie and the king, Alexander the Great.

I discuss cautionary tale of Pork Pie and how Brian and Kirk can learn from the sad plight of Pork Pie.

I explore these topics through two great documentaries on Netflix: Chimp Empire and a recent docudrama on Alexander the Great.

One of the central arguments for providing military support to Ukraine is that the war was completed "unprovoked" by the CIA and that Putin invaded just out of greed and megalomania.

A recent NY Times article demonstrates that as a complete lie.

It's called "The Spy War: How the C.I.A. Secretly Helps Ukraine Fight Putin."

In this episode, I explain why the article is so important to the Ukraine debate and why Speaker Mike Johnson should cut off military funding for Ukraine immediately.

In this episode, I share my path from being a supporter of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to being a supporter of Marjorie Taylor Greene, the uber mama bear congresswoman from Georgia.

AOC polices lead to a disordered hell scape and MTG's policies lead to a healthy patriotic republic.

In this episode, I explain how.

In this episode, I explain why Paul Ryan and Mitt Romney absolutely suck at making arguments to support Ukraine War propaganda.

Finally, I challenge them to answer one question that they have never answered relating to this supposed existential threat posed by Russia.

That failure dramatically demonstrates why they are just con men seeking to make a buck.

High school debate team could crush these guys!!
