My computer is fixed. My shoulder is….attached and not in a sling. Comcast managed to get their shit together. Major projects are finally finished.
SO WE’RE BACK, BABY!!!!!
No worries, we made up for the lack of previous profanity.
We discuss the..*snicker*..end of Hillary’s career in great delight, I mean, detail. We discuss Chelsea’s chances. Spend some time talking about the soon to be inaugurated Trump and a moves he’s made so far. Some pure good, some pure troll. Not there’s anything wrong with either.
We talk a little sports. Neither of us has had much time for entertainment, but the plan is for us both to see Dr. Strange this week. And I’m insisting that we finally discuss the original Dracula.
Hope you folks enjoy the podcast. NOT FAMILY FRIENDLY.
After a long break due to tech issues and a surgery, Alex and I are back and expanding vocabularies once again.
We cover where we’ve been and what we’ve been up to, our friend Wiser’s excellent Culture War post, Cruz, the Debate, the awful/tragic losses in the sporting world, pleasure shaming, and some entertainment.
Hope you enjoy!
PS – Yes, the audio is a bit rough here and there. Mostly at the beginning. I know Alex has an echo. Blame Comcast. We do.
It has been far far too long, but AlextheChick and I are back and talking about…whatever random crap we want.
We spend a good bit of time talking about where we’ve been and what we’ve been up to. We also take some time to discuss why we both do and don’t care about Colin Kaepernick. Brief laughing at Carlos Danger. Louisiana flooding and the folks there. And of course we finish with some books, video games, etc.
As always, we wander a lot within those topics. Because we can.
So Alex and I went reeeeeaaaaally long this time around. Partially because I’m drinking heavily and partially because we got REALLY yelly and had things to discuss.
I’m warning you right now, the language is pretty heavy even for us. Alex and I disagreed strongly on a topic and it resulted in lots of yelling at each other and adult language.
On the plus side, you folks get a glimpse at what off line arguments and conversation between Alex and I looks like.
We discussed a lot of stuff tonight including the terrorist attack in Orlando, gun control measure, the fecklessness of the GOP, the horrible tragedy of the boy attacked by a gator at Disney World, Star Trek’s reboot Chekov dying, the absurdity of college campuses, and much much more.
I will be completely honest, I wasn’t kidding when I said how much tequila I was into. So I don’t really remember which links on which topics I said I’d link to. I do remember the HeatStreet article about the college insanity. Yell at me in the comments and I will link the other stuff.
We’re back and recording and thank goodness for that.
We hit a lot of different headlines this time around. We talked about taking about AQ’s top leader via drone strike, Gen Votel’s trip to Syria, general insanity in the Middle East, arms embargoes in Vietnam, the insanity of the regulatory state, DOJ lawyers being out of control, further pushback against Civil Asset Forfeiture, and, of course, we wandered in and out of all sorts of topics.
This week, AtC and I hit the time machine and go back to college. Our topics are the hysteria at UMASS, the idiocy at Mizzou, and the May Day fools in Seattle.
Of course, we wander around some too.
Hope you enjoy.
Books/Movies/Etc
We didn’t do a huge segment here this week, and while we did discuss a couple things in passing, the main book discussed was:
PS: Yes, I’m aware that our audio sucks even more than normal. It sounded fine while we were recording, so I didn’t discover the issue until it was far too late to do anything.
Back! And yelling! And cursing! (Seriously, we both drop F bombs in the first 100 seconds.)
We didn’t realize it until late in the episode, but apparently we had a theme this week: Power and F***ing.
We started with the various insanities currently ongoing on college campuses, then we moved to the latest Russian aggressions, and rounded out everything wonderfully with a discussion on Civil Asset Forfeiture.
I will warn folks, very late in the podcast, we derailed into a discussion on specific abuses of Constitutional power and a story about a woman detained by police. This woman was subjected, repeatedly, to invasive searches of her body. This discussion is, frankly, graphic at times and disturbing. You have been warned.
Books
No specific listings this week. Go read pretty much anything by Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, or Tom Clancy.
