This Week In Outrage episodes

  • #52: Politicians debating the definition of concentration camps seems productive
    On this weeks episode of Third Rail, I talk about politicians sniping at each other about the definition of concentration camps.  Whether what is happening on the border fits the definition or not, there has to be a more productive way to improve the situation.  Is this yet another example of people focusing on the wrong point, hollowing out words, and ignoring the fact that we need real policies, not angry tweets.  I also talk about the women's FIFA world cup, and Doug Ford getting booed.  All of that and my "Trump Roundup" and "Micro Aggressions" segments.Follow me on Twitter: @Nick_Beaton

  • #51: Bake me a cake as fast as you can
    On this weeks episode of Third Rail, I talk about the supreme court decision exonerating the baker who refused to bake a wedding cake for a gay couple.  Is it really a religious freedom to deny people your services?  I also talk about Kyle Kashuv, a Parkland survivor who defends the second amendment, getting his acceptance to Harvard rescinded due to racists comments he made in a private chat when he was 16.  All of this and my "Trump Roundup" and "Micro Aggression" segments.  Follow me on twitter: @Nick_Beaton

  • #50: Milkshakes bring all hypocrites to the yard
    On this weeks episode I talk about the recent trend of "Milkshake-ing" conservative candidates.  I also talk about guys in Boston who want to start a "Straight Pride Parade."  All of that as well as my "Trump Roundup" and "Micro Aggression" segments.  Follow me on Twitter: @Nick_Beaton

  • #49: Fiscal Conservatism Trumps Social Conservatism
    On this week's episode I talk Hollywood's stance against abortion.  If they pull out of filming entirely in a state like Georgia it could have a big financial impact.  I also talk about an Anti Vax video on Youtube that wasn't taken down, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez receives death threats after a video by a baseball team compares her to dictators.  All of that and my "Trump Roundup" and "Micro Aggression" segments.  Follow me on Twitter: @Nick_Beaton

  • #48: SPECIAL EPISODE WITH GUEST BRAD MILLS
    On this special episode I talk with Brad Mills.  Brad is a Bitcoin miner and podcaster.  We talk about Bitcoin for a while, as I try to understand it, then we move on to talk about other political and social issues of the day.  Check out his Podcast "Magic Internet Money" wherever you get your Podcasts.  Follow Us on Twitter:  @Nick_Beaton @Bradmillscan

  • #47: Moby's Dick
    On this week's episode I talk about the public shaming of a Chipotle employee, as if being a Chipotle employee wasn't bad enough.  It turned out to be bullshit and is an important lesson in how not to handle these kinds of situations.  I also talk about Moby's recent memoir in which he says he dated Natalie Portman, and despite her disagreeing with this, Moby seems pretty insistent.  And it's memorial day so I talk about the military and war for a minute.  All of this and my "Trump Round Up" and "Micro Aggression" segments.  Follow me on Twitter: @Nick_Beaton

  • #46: Garbage Home Alabama
    On this weeks episode I talk about the new anti choice laws in the United states.  It's become a convoluted men v.s women debate that I try to deconstruct.  I also talk about the burning of a Nazi flag in Saskatchewan, and the weird takes on Game of Thrones.  As well as my "Trump Roundup" and "Micro Aggression" segments.  Follow me on Twitter:  @Nick_Beaton

  • #45: Lets talk about #SexStrike baby
    On this weeks episode I talk about #SexStrike.  A protest started by Alyssa Milano, in retaliation to the bill passed in Georgia that is cracking down on abortion.  Protesting the bill is good, but just how misguided is her approach?  I also talk about Ben Shapiro getting slapped around by Andrew Neil on the BBC.  All that and my Trump Round Up and Micro Aggression segments.Follow me on Twitter:  @Nick_Beaton

  • #44: Ban em all and let Zuck sort em out!
    On this weeks episode I talk about the recent Facebook bans.  Has FB put themselves in a position of standards that will be impossible for them to maintain?  I also talk about a tweet from Chase Bank that got people upset, and William Barr being held in contempt.
