The Opposite Effect

On this episode – dammit, look we wanted to have a podcast where we took stupid things people in politics did and made them net wins for the world by driving the outrage of people like us into donation dollars for the opposite. Makes sense, but then this fucking tangerine nightmare had to become president […]

This week we talk about Trump and his tweets. Trump and his tweets did a lot this week and it was pretty upsetting and crazy and it made us pretty upset and crazy. We also talk about the Russia stuff, and whether or not we want it to be true. We wrap up by talking […]

In this week’s episode we talk about everything we missed when we couldn’t get together last week, and hooo boy it was a lot. Also, this week there’s a lot. Hell, there’s a lot just from today. Dammit, just while I typed out this episode description, a ton of stuff happened. After we go over […]

In this week’s episode, we talk Sessions, we talk lunatic Cabinet meetings, we talk Bob Mueller and we talk about what Trump’s like at parties. Then we apologize for all the dead ducks. This week, we’re trying to turn the case of Marco Coello, a Venezuelan asylum seeker here in the states, into something good, […]

In this week’s episode we sit in the crater left by the Comey-bomb dropped on the Senate this morning. Every word that tall, lanky drink of water had to say seemed important, but what actually was? What does it all mean? And how will it all end for Trump? Speaking of that guy, we also […]

In this week’s episode we spend a lot of time with Trump’s tweets, since, well, he tweeted a lot and most of it was lunacy. We chat a bunch, as well, about what’s going on with Russia, get really upset about Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Accord, and then, because by law everyone had to […]

In this week’s episode we chat about Trump’s budget, the CBO score for the revised health care bill, and what a knob Ben Carson is. Russia stuff is still happening, too. And Trump is flying around the world being weird and alienating. This felt like a lighter week, but Jesus a lot happened. The bombing […]

In this week’s episode we talk about how EVERYTHING IS HAPPENING ALL AT ONCE. Obstruction, intel leaks, Russian connections, special investigations. And it’s only been 117 days since Trump took office. It’s almost like we elected a dangerously incompetent serial grifter with a history of corruption, and weirdly he didn’t magically become someone else when […]

In this week’s episode we take some time to talk about the news of the week, but we also take a step back to talk about some of the theories we have about what’s going to happen next. Honestly our friends and loved ones kinda look at us weird when we try to talk to […]

In this week’s episode we mark Donald Trump’s favorite holiday by freaking out about his tweets, his former National Security Advisor and his Immigration Plan/Tax Plan/Health Care Plan/Trade War Plan/Tax Reform Plan/Actual War Plan. We also talk about one of the schmucks running for Governor of Virginia, and suggest, humbly an alternative in Tom Perriello. […]
