  • Republican Double Talk
    In this episode, Yergz does his first Up The Middle editorial (an extra, and not a part of the weekly schedule) where he points out some examples of Republican Double Talk. Research for this episode began looking at the success of Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R) and President Joe Biden (D), but quickly morphed into a discussion on keeping Florida free, all while banning books, Critical Race Theory, human sexuality and providing outright lies. All so one incompetent governor can run for president. While Yergz remains critical of extremes on BOTH ends of the political spectrum, in this episode you'll be able to see why he's been a little busy!

  • Biden v. Kushner; Rant about LinkedIN; Santos and Trump STILL in trouble
    We start with a rant about the discriminatory evaluations by LinkedIN on what is and what is not a violation of community standards. Then we give an intro to our own comparison of the actions by both Hunter Biden and Jared Kushner, and their behaviors while with their respective administrations. Finally, our weekly update of George Santos and Donald Trump, and the trouble they're in this week.

  • Stonewall and the Fourth Reich, Pt 3
    This is a three part series where we examine how the Gay Community, and its movement towards Equality, began, and where it is today; attacks on store Pride displays, cancelled Pride Celebrations, and threats of harm towards the Gay Community. We examine who is behind that, too; the Christian Right - white, male dominated, fascist and easily capable of talking out of both sides of the mouth. From "Keep Florida Free," to banning books. From armies of police, to fights with Disney, to "Make America Florida"; this series looks at history and how it repeats itself - because no one listens the first time.
    Part 3, Stonewall, Fourth Reich and Rant: Take Back Our Flag
