  • It's Political...But God!

    Politics and Bullshit?

    This week on the Vexed Intellects the guys and gal are looking to break free of the blues from a challenging week all around.  Coming off an uplifting and foreboding week (Get out and vote!) of the DNC the team keeps the politics conversations going.  

    The crew discusses Kellyanne Conway’s departure from the White House, the propaganda filled RNC inclusive of the Candace “Super Cape” Owens snub, Steve Bannon and the band of deplorables that have surrounded 45, and the apparent Republican approval of COVID deaths. 

    On the lighter side of life the crew discusses “Why guys and dolls date 5’s?” and 

    You won’t want to miss the update that Foureyesandsomecurls provides on her continued saga with the “Good Guy Ghoster”.
