The Freak Show

We appreciate you listening every week to us & our humor. It’s lots of fun making this podcast.

We discuss how unsafe Florida is from COVID on Governor DeSantis’s watch, further evidenced by his police raid on the home of data scientist & whistleblower Rebekah Jones. Speaking of Florida, we go into FL-13 Congressman Charlie Crist speaking out against the mismanagement of a retirement home that led to deaths of residents & staff. We also talk about the continued confusion surrounding faith of elections, especially in Georgia, where both Senate seats are up for grabs in the runoff election. A recurring theme, of course, is that DeSantis, Loeffler, Perdue, & so many others prioritize the economy over human lives time & again.

This week’s “Amendment Time” covers the 9th Amendment, which states that the American people retain rights not enumerated by the Constitution.

& the F is for “freedom of speech”, right?

This week, we talk about how Parler is so in favor of free speech, they ban left-wing users & anyone expressing contradictory or critical sentiments. We also go into a discussion about additional pressures women have in regards to safety. Later, we talk about Barack Obama’s perspective on the hashtag #DefundThePolice & the police reform movement. & lots more fun stuff.

We continue the series on amendments with the 8th amendment, which protects against excessive bail & fines, as well as cruel & unusual punishment.

Maybe if you follow that trail, you’ll find some damn sense!

It’s the Freak Show! Cyrex & Super Elsy discuss the asinine continued efforts by Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani, & their team to try to steal the 2020 election. We cover Sidney Powell tripping all over logic with Lou Dobbs, as well as Justice Samuel Alito making some shortsighted comments on religious freedom in relation to pandemic conditions. We also cover domestic terrorist Kyle Rittenhouse having been released on bond with assistance from Mike Lindell (the MyPillow guy) & Ricky Schroder (of Silver Spoons fame), and the double standards regarding police action in relation to race.

We also continue our series on the Amendments! This time we cover the 7th Amendment, which guarantees that civil cases can be heard by a jury in federal court.

Now that the elections are over, and the fraud accusations are weak & plentiful, we dip into some music talk. Short discussions of recent listening, particularly Lady Gaga & Westside Gunn.

But we also get discuss the baseless fraud accusations & the last new scams of the far-right, the Trump PAC scam & the new far-right social networks.

We end the episode with more constitutional fun! The 6th Amendment, discussing rights including those to a speedy & public trial, as well as an impartial jury.

The 2020 election has been called, and Joe Biden has defeated Donald Trump and become the president-elect of the United States! Kamala Harris is the first female VP, first African-American VP, & first Asian-American VP!

We discuss the election, the baseless allegations of voter fraud, & plenty of other elections & mess around the country.

Our election week coverage begins! We spend much of the episode reacting to various parts of this election cycle, not just the Presidential election. We talk a lot about Congress too. The Squad is back! More progressives in Congress. Our home state is even redder now, but at least a solid minimum wage bill has been passed. Things are looking good, but the fight to better our country rages on.

Plus the next entry in the amendment series, the 4th Amendment, which protects against unreasonable searches & seizures.

In this episode, oh boy. We open with a talk about the American flag & the hyper-nationalism usually attached to the people attached to it. We go on to condemn Jared Kushner for his comments of the success of African Americans. Then we talk about the confirmation of the "Originalist" Amy Coney Barrett.

We talk more about how we believe "pro-life" is used as a code word for "pro-birth," & our views thereof. Spoiler: we are 100% pro-choice.

Closing out is the continuation of our amendment series, in which we cover the 3rd Amendment, which covers the quartering of soldiers.

In this episode, we're especially all over the place. Cyrex & Super Elsy talk about the upcoming final presidential debate & the new rules thereof. Next, we go into Texas State Board of Social Work Examiners' harmful decision to remove language protecting LGBTQIA people & people with disabilities. We go on to discuss Amy Coney Barrett apparently not understanding the First Amendment (maybe she should listen to the previous episode). Next, brief discussion of the innate flaws with the U.S. Senate, as well as our 2 cents on the Senate race between 20-year Marine pilot Amy McGrath & the nefarious Mitch McConnell. Also, Pope Francis expressed his views in favor same-sex marriage & we are here for it.

Later on, we continue our series on the amendments, this time talking about the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution, regarding the right to keep & bear arms.

As always, enjoy & subscribe! @thefreakshowpodcast

In this episode, we talk about the confirmation hearings in the Senate for Judge Amy Coney Barrett. We also go into the Vice Presidential Debate & some of our reactions to the media coverage. Later on, we talk about an interesting political conversation between Cyrex & an extended family member.

We also introduce a new segment on the Amendments to the Constitution! This time, we break down the First Amendment, which grants & guarantees civil liberties & establishes separation of church & state.

Consider this kind of part 2 from last time.

In this episode, we got more updates on America! The debates, the politics, the whole grand mess!

Trump has COVID, even more reason to take this seriously, even though he continues to play it down. Wear a mask! Go vote!

This election is huge, & we cannot afford to fudge it up!
