In This Week’s Show, episode 169, Big Gay Jim joins us to tell us all about the HIV, the AIDS, and what you can do for them…. I mean, for people with them.

Now, grab a beer and help us test the god hypothesis — because, while the Venti (Roman gods of the winds) hasn’t struck us down yet, we are trying their patience!

Shea’s Life Lesson

This week I learned that the safest music to air drum too while driving is Def Leppard, you can keep one hand on the wheel. (Rick Allen)

Jenn’s Actual Lesson

Did you know that, other than being a drinking measurement, the Venti were also known as the Tempests? Because of their connection with storms at sea, Roman naval generals often sacrificed all-white animals to keep them placated before a voyage.

But before we get to all that, let’s have a beer!

Follow up: In case you missed it, Honorable Judge Bad Ass Rosemarie Aquilina sentenced epic piece of shit Nassar to up to 175 years for his pervasive abuse of young female gymnasts. “I just signed your death warrant.”

Speaking of judges, the less honorable soon-to-be ex-Judge Assface McFuckwhistle who barely sentenced convicted rapest Brock “the rapist” Turner to almost jail is up for retirement on the June ballot, find out more at www.recallaaronpersky.com

We’d like to say goodbye to Rob and Amy of Secular Yakking Podcast, who are calling it. wrapping up their show after several years of good work. All the best. Robert and Amy are amazing people and fast friends. We can't wait to see what happens next with the Original Motto Project (link soon). Hit them up on twitter and thank them for years of great shows and give'm a send off deserving of the great people they are!

Finally, before we dive into the headlines I’d like to encourage you all to check out WyoAIDS.org — and not just to tell me how great the redesign is ;) Jim?

“The money we raise stays here in Wyoming and is used to support those living with HIV/AIDS. WyoAIDS pays the costs that insurance, government assistance, and other programs don’t including dental and travel help.”
