  Trump Doesn’t Give A Damn About American Service Members Killed In His Stupid, Illegal War 22.07.2026 21min

  18 American service members have been killed so far in Trump’s war against Iran. And Trump uses that number 18, and compares it to all the Americans lost in previous wars like the Vietnam war, as some sort of “success story.” He’s despicable. And he doesn’t know what he’s doing and he doesn’t care. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  What’s Worse: Being Wicked Or Being Wrong? 21.07.2026 38min

  3 questions for today’s show: What’s worse, being wicked or being wrong? Is it an irrational act for a brown or black person to run away from ICE if they’re pulled over? And, why would any journalist go to a White House Correspondent’s Dinner with a president who’s at war against the First Amendment? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  Hey Dems, MAGA Will Keep Winning If You Spout Crazy Shit 20.07.2026 34min

  Today’s Republican Party is authoritarian, it’s fascist, it’s an utterly un-American political party led by the very thing our Founders feared. But you know what’s crazy? Today’s Republican Party will keep winning nationally and in battleground states if Democrats keep doing them a big favor - going crazy left and talking about shit the American people don’t agree with or don’t care about.

  A Nation Held Hostage By The Biggest Sore Loser In Human History 17.07.2026 25min

  Last night was a nothing burger. He presented no evidence of anything. Even Fox News said they’re not in a position to verify anything he claimed. Why are we still here? To soothe his hugely fragile ego and because he is trying to fuck with the midterms. That’s why. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  A socialist and a libertarian met in a bar again, and this time they got right into it. Are we just too damn different, too damn big, too damn divided in what we believe in that we ought to just break up right now into several different sovereign nations? All of that and a discussion of federalism. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  Abolish ICE Ain’t Defund The Police. Not Even Close 13.07.2026 30min

  We wake up this morning to another person killed in an ICE involved shooting. This time in Maine. One week after ICE killed a father/grandfather in Houston. ICE isn’t law enforcement. ICE is the antithesis of law enforcement. And the vast majority of the American people get that. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  A Libertarian And A Socialist Walk Into A Bar Pt 9 09.07.2026 36min

  My weekly sit down with my younger socialist friend, Xander Schultz. And we get into the whole “label” thing - when people throw out terms like communist or socialist, how best to take that stuff on. Xander had a great rebuttal- focus on corruption. Also, how do we get people who disagree with each other to actually listen to each other. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  Republicans Abandoned Personal Character 11yrs Ago. Dems, Don’t Do The Same 08.07.2026 29min

  By supporting Donald Trump, Republicans told the world they don’t give a damn about personal character.

  The Trump Administration’s Attack On Americans With Disabilities 07.07.2026 36min

  On June 18, Trump’s Justice Department issued a memo claiming that federal disability laws don’t require state level integration, guidance in direct conflict with the 1999 Supreme Court Olmstead decision.

  Nobody Hates America More Than Donald Trump Does 06.07.2026 29min

  A lot of talk these days about certain people who “hate” America, and the right is going to town on certain elements of the left that clearly don’t like America. And there are folks on the left who despise what America is. But nobody hates America more than someone who loses an election and refuses to accept the results. No one hates America more than someone who opposes our founding principles. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  A Libertarian & A Socialist Walk Into A Bar, Part 8 03.07.2026 43min

  My younger socialist friend and I chatted again this week, focused especially on the problems of homelessness, addiction, and mental health, what to do, what not to do, what if anything government should do. We agreed that letting these folks hang in public spaces isn’t the answer, we looked for a better term than “institutionalize.” Neat conversation Hosted on Acast.

  Hey American People, Please Wise Up. Trump Doesn’t Give A Damn About You 02.07.2026 29min

  From the moment he was sworn in, he’s been stuffing his pockets with money and his family has been stuffing their pockets with money…to the tune of billions. We’ve never seen anything like it. He singlehandedly fucked up the economy, he illegally took this country to war, and he’s desecrating the people’s house. And along the way, he’s personally enriching himself. He doesn’t care about you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
