Episode 35 – Dave Didn’t Want to Do This One Jul 17, 2018

Show notes

Just the original Bird Boys this episode, drinking bird-tainted Bird Water. Q began this episode defending the LGBTQ community from the New York Times’ weird homophobic animations, and this immediately enraged Jewish Dave, who was standoffish and mean-spirited for the entire show. We soldiered on, backs against the wind, and discussed the #SurrenderSummit or whatever they’re trying to call it. ...

Show notes

Yo yo yo catch us at our booth at OzyFest this summer where we’ll be promoting Bird Water, water that has been soaked in birds, and see Jewish Dave during his breakout session, “How GG Alin Would Have Hearted Animojis” and “Democracy and dRUMPF: A Crisis in Civility.” In this episode, we talk to Roosevelt University professor David Faris, author ...

Episode 33 – What’s The Frequency, Kirlian? feat. Cristian Ponce Jul 10, 2018

Show notes

We trade the horror of national news and politics for a more preferable flavor of the genre, as we speak with Cristian Ponce, creator of Frecuencia Kirlian – Ghost Radio, a compellingly made online web series that everyone should be checking out. After that, Jewish Dave walks us through some of the best films from what has been an underwhelming ...

Episode 32 – Direct Action is Absolutely Necessary Right Now Y’all, feat. Thomas Kennedy Jul 03, 2018

Show notes

We spoke with Thomas Kennedy of the Florida Immigrant Coalition during a day of protest in Miami. Quick update: Thousands of families are still separated. ICE is still a rogue government agency that looks more and more like the Gestapo each day. The government has still failed to provide any proof that the 500 families they claimed to reunite actually ...

Episode 31 – The No Good, Very Bad Week Jun 16, 2018

Show notes

Man, we only covered like half the awful things that have happened this week and we’re still exhausted. Jewish Dave gives us a dispatch from the wildly disappointing Nevada Democratic Primary where everyone ignored a field of qualified, compelling progressives and instead voted for crates of remaindered Al Franken books. The bright spot: we talked to Ryan Lindsey, a progressive ...

Episode 30 – Vote Eileen Higgins & Good Use of Meme-Bad Use of Meme Jun 08, 2018

Show notes

Dad-gum, this is a jam-packed episode. Hope you’ve got some spare time and Otter Pops if it’s hot. On June 19, if you live in District 5 in Miami-Dade County, you can do something more important than listen to a snarky, subversive regional politics podcast to express your disdain with the status quo–you can vote for Eileen Higgins, a candidate ...

Episode 29 – Jewish Dave Hot Take: Chance The Rapper is Bad Jun 03, 2018

Show notes

It’s been a minute, yeah, sure, but we’ve been busy so back off. Here’s your new episode. We talk about why the 1,500 missing migrant kids-situation is not what it seems (spoiler alert: it’s way worse) and then we follow up on Do I Have To — Jewish Dave doesn’t like Chance the Rapper because he hates joy and things ...

Episode 28 – Avengers: Infinity Wolf May 29, 2018

Show notes

Can’t you see? She killed them. She killed them all, Dave. This week we catch up with friend of the pod Michael Weiss as he chili cook-offs (cooks-off?) his way to victory in his Nevada congressional bid. Meanwhile, we have new Do I Have To assignments for each other, and we talk about other things as well including bad traffic ...

Episode 27 – The Zuck Mixtape w/ Carty Bees Apr 13, 2018

Show notes

The pee tape is real the pee tape is real the pee tape is real the pee Q and Jewish Dave talk about Three Billboards Outside Ebbings, Missouri (2017) and Relatos Salvaje (2012) during Do I Have To. I never have enough energy to write great descriptions by the time I’m done editing. Just listen to this week’s episode if ...

Show notes

Goddam son, if this isn’t our best episode ever. I’m finally happy with the arc of our production value. You’re actually gonna like this one. Our guest is Carlos Miller, founder of Photography Is Not A Crime, a news site that began advocating for journalists’ rights to record the police 11 years ago and has grown to a holistic First ...
