Sudden Depth episodes

  • Outrage at Fitzgerald's
    This week on Sudden Depth, one of the hottest music venues in Houston is dropping performers like, let's say, flies because of, you guessed it, racism. We try our best to be outraged. Then, the Trump administration has rolled back Obama-era guidelines on transgender students using their preferred bathrooms. Is this a states rights issue, or a. . . .bathroom rights issue? All that and more on Sudden Depth!

  • "The Enemy of the American People"
    This week on Sudden Depth, people are once again trying to prevent Milo Yiannopoulos from speaking. But this time, it's conservative people! Is the Right starting to adopt the censorship tactics of the Left? Plus, President Trump has declared the press "the enemy of the American people." In response, the press has compared the president to Hitler. That seems like a rational response, doesn't it? We explore the depths of this hate-hate relationship and make fun of everyone involved.  All that and more on Sudden Depth!

  • A Little Orange Lie
    This week on Sudden Depth, President Trump and members of his administration have a penchant for, shall we say, "stretching the truth." We sift through some of the exaggerations, hyperbole, misstatements, and straight-up lies that have come out of the White House just since the inauguration. Is Donald Trump speaking truths that nobody else has the courage to say, or does nobody around him have the courage to say to him that he's not speaking the truth? All that and more on Sudden Depth!

  • Shut Up and Listen!
    This week on Sudden Depth, President Trump's chief strategist Steve Bannon says the media is the "opposition party" that should "keep its mouth shut and just listen for a while." We keep our mouths open as we try to figure out what's behind this sentiment from the administration. Plus, people are losing their collective minds over a Muslim ban that doesn't exist. We separate the facts from the not-so-facts as we analyze the role of the "opposition party" in spreading this misinformation. All that and more on Sudden Depth!

Trump, now the 45th President of the United States, once proposed a "complete shutdown" of Muslims entering the country. In this Sudden Depth clip, Alex Riddle and Rashon Murrill try to allay the fears of liberals everywhere by discussing why such a shutdown could never happen, and why the proposal was never serious in the first place.

  • Sudden Brev.....ity - Explaining Trump's Comments on Mexican Immigrants
    Soon-to-be President Donald Trump began his run for president by making controversial statements about Mexican immigrants. The media narrative quickly became that he had called all Mexicans rapists, but is that really what he said? Alex and Rashon use a pinch of logic, a touch of context, and a teaspoon of perspective to break down what Mr. Trump was actually saying.
