There is no low that's too low | Something Ain't Right Mar 26, 2025

Show notes

This week on Something Ain’t Right, Frances and Angela serve up a buffet of chaos, absurdity, and the kind of side-eye that could power a wind turbine. First, they dissect the new docu-drama series Good American Family, which critics say might be less “good” and more “American dumpster fire.” The shocking case of Natalia Grace takes center stage, and let’s just say, this series might be adding fuel to an already raging inferno of controversy.

Next, a Kennedy Center contract employee decides that the best way to protest is to take the phrase “bare your soul” a little too literally. Spoiler alert: it involves total exposure, and no, we’re not talking about transparency in government.

Speaking of government, the Trump administration is back at it again, offering corporate sponsorship opportunities for the White House Easter Egg Roll. Because nothing says “wholesome family fun” like slapping a logo on a pastel egg. Who’s ready for the ExxonMobil Bunny Hop?

And finally, in a twist that’s both horrifying and depressingly predictable, Nazis & swastikas manage to make appearances at both L.A. City Council meetings and Omaha Fashion Week. Because apparently, fascism is the new black.

When the world serves up a platter of “what the actual heck,” Frances and Angela are here to dish it out with a side of biting commentary. Tune in for your weekly dose of “Something Ain’t Right.”

This week on Idiot of the Week, we dive headfirst into the swirling vortex of human absurdity. First up, Starbucks faces a $50 million lawsuit after a scalding tea incident—was it negligence or just a piping-hot cup of stupidity? Then, a man attempts to smuggle a live turtle through TSA... in his pants. Yes, you heard that right. Meanwhile, Sam Jones, an American influencer, manages to enrage an entire continent by snatching a baby wombat in Australia, potentially complicating travel for all Americans Down Under. And finally, a trucker who decided trucking just wasn’t his vibe—because why not? Who will claim the coveted title of Idiot of the Week? Tune in to find out, and prepare to laugh, cringe, and question humanity’s collective decision-making skills.

Give Us Ice Cream! Mar 21, 2025

Show notes

In this episode, Frances and Angela dive deep into the political landscape, dissecting Trump's Executive Order to dismantle the Department of Education. They explore the implications of this move and what it means for the future of education in America. The discussion doesn't stop there—Frances and Angela also tackle the ongoing Trump/Musk assault on the Trans community, higher education, and immigrants. It's a powerful conversation that sheds light on the struggles these groups are facing in today's political climate.

They also delve into Trump's attempts to seize control of the Federal Trade Commission and his plans to gut Social Security. Frances and Angela provide thoughtful insights into why these actions are taking place and what the potential consequences could be for the American people. Plus, they examine the chilling actions of a major corporation that seem meant to stifle the progressive politics of one of its holdings. All this and more on this week's, The Final Word.

Something Ain't Right | Fighting the Fight We're In Mar 19, 2025

Show notes

This week on Something Ain’t Right, Frances and Angela dive headfirst into the swirling vortex of absurdity that is modern life. First up, they’re throwing some serious side-eye at nine Senate Democrats—because apparently, being disappointing is bipartisan now. Then, they tackle the eternal question: if Elon Musk tweets like a white nationalist and salutes like a Nazi, why are we still tiptoeing around calling him one? Spoiler alert: they’re not.

But wait, there’s more! Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni are embroiled in a drama so baffling, it might just make you question the very fabric of celebrity culture. And just when you thought it couldn’t get worse, the Department of Education is apparently moonlighting as a demolition crew, launching investigations into 52 universities in 41 states as part of Trump’s anti-DEI crusade.

It’s a smorgasbord of “what the actual hell,” and Frances and Angela are here to break it all down with their signature wit and righteous fury. Tune in, because something ain’t right—and they’re not letting it slide.

IOTW | Stupid Sauce And Inflight Ignorance Mar 18, 2025

Show notes

Oh honey, buckle up and grab your tea, because this week’s episode of Idiot of the Week is serving up a buffet of wrong! Will the crown go to the Southwest Airlines diva who turned turbulence into a tantrum? Or perhaps the three-wheeled daredevil from West Babylon, redefining reckless with a side of audacity? Let’s not forget the Louisiana legend who thought a “Nigerian Prince” scam was a retirement plan, or the Georgia gal who spent a month in jail over SpaghettiOs—yes, SpaghettiOs!

The competition is fierce, the stupidity is palpable, and the laughs are guaranteed. Tune in to find out who will trip away with the title of Idiot of the Week!

Dogging DOGE Mar 14, 2025

Show notes

Welcome to The Final Word, where Frances and Angela dive headfirst into the swirling vortex of political absurdity. This week, they dissect the Republican spending bill—a legislative Hail Mary to dodge a government shutdown—and the antics of the so-called 'Department of Government Efficiency' (spoiler: it’s neither efficient nor a department). Then, they unravel the chaos of Trump’s tariffs, which are about as well-thought-out as a toddler’s finger painting, and the demolition derby that is the Department of Education. Oh, and let’s not forget the latest Orwellian twist: what exactly constitutes an 'illegal protest' in Trump’s America? Finally, they explore the enigma of South Florida’s Venezuelan community and its baffling support for the man who seems to have a vendetta against logic itself. All this and more, as we resist together—because someone has to."

Firing Squads & FAFO: Something Ain’t Right Mar 12, 2025

Show notes

On this week’s Something Ain’t Right, we’re diving into the chaos that’s got us all saying, “Wait, what?!” First up, we’re unpacking the FAFO phenomenon—because when people find out, they really do find out. But the real kicker? Why are people still standing behind Trump, even after he’s firing them left and right? Like, literally firing them... is it us? We’re here to break it all down. Then, the Department of Homeland Security has pulled a major move by ignoring TSA agents' contracts, and, let’s just say, tensions are high. Oh, and did we mention South Carolina decided to take it back to the 1800s with a firing squad execution? Yep, that happened. But just when you thought the world couldn’t get any weirder, Casey Anthony launches a Substack and starts calling herself a "legal advocate" on TikTok. Buckle up, because if Something Ain’t Right, we are going to talk about it.

Tune in for the wild ride!

Dear Diary, I'm stupid | Idiot of the Week Mar 11, 2025

Show notes

Hold on to your wigs, darling, because this week on Idiot of the Week, we're serving up a smorgasbord of stupidity that's beyond belief. First up, we’ve got a family in Australia who found themselves playing house to 102 venomous snakes. But the real question is—who’s the bigger threat? The slithering reptiles or the humans who thought it was okay to live with them?

Then, let’s glide into the absurd with a 79-year-old ice skater who took a solo spin on a lake that wasn’t frozen—honey, the only thing chilling here is your bad decision-making! And who could forget the Minnesota delivery driver who got caught red-handed in the car theft game—except she wrote in her diary, “Totally stole a car today!” Sweetie, who’s the genius here?

Oh, and last but definitely not least, we’ve got the "brilliant" scientist who thought he could outsmart the law. After calling the cops to report a burglary at his illegal meth lab, he learned the hard way that crime and science don’t mix.

So, darling, is it the snakes, the skater, the thief, or the meth lab magician? There’s only one way to find out! Subscribe, download, and listen now to Idiot of the Week—because sometimes, the only thing you can do is laugh!

**Boycotts & Buffoonery!** Mar 07, 2025
Show notes

Get ready to have your mind blown, your blood boiled, and your heart lifted all in one episode! In this fabulous installment of *The Final Word*, we’re serving up the latest hot tea on the February 28th Target/Walmart/Amazon boycott, was it a success? Well, darling, grab your fan because the answer is anything but clear. But we’ll tell you what you *can* do to make your voice heard loud and proud. *Work it!*
And we’ve gotta talk about the **effrontery** of that 100-minute circus known as Trump’s address to Congress. With lies, tantrums, and *more* lies, it was truly a masterclass in chaos. Let’s just say, Representative Al Green got escorted out for telling the truth, while other Democrats took a dramatic exit. We will not let them protocol us into fascism!
But wait, there’s more! In the world of Dogecoin madness, we’ve got staffers raking in six-figure salaries while Musk and his squad roll around in Air Force One. *I can’t even...* Meanwhile, Trump keeps pulling those classic yo-yo stunts—this time granting automakers a deal on tariffs. And to put the cherry on top of this dumpster fire, Trump is planning to slice up the IRS workforce by 50%. I mean, can we get a break here?
Oh, and don’t you worry, we’ve got a sweet little surprise from a listener, the incredible Lisa J. Honey, we’re talking FRANGELA! It’s the gift that keeps on giving. If you ever get the chance to have a penguin named after you—DO IT, darling.
So grab your popcorn, your sass, and get ready for a wild ride because it’s about to get real, REAL quick!

Musk, Patrick, & Designer Babies! | Something Ain't Right Mar 05, 2025

Show notes

This week on Something Ain't Right, honey, we refuse to let President Musk tell us it's raining when he's just parking his Tesla over our heads and pretending it’s a monsoon. No ma’am, we’re not buying it! Meanwhile, Patrick Schwarzenegger wants you to know he’s not just a pretty face—he actually took acting classes, and his famous parents have absolutely nothing to do with his success. Right, Patrick. Keep telling yourself that.

But wait—what’s the deal with these designer babies? We’re talking about the little ones born with the best genetic code money can buy... and now they’re out here not fulfilling their parents’ grand genetic dreams. Uh, excuse me? What happened to being perfect?!

And don’t even get us started on the huge loss we suffered this week. We lost the legend, Gene Hackman, and his family—his wife, his dog, and the man himself—just gone. We’re in mourning and honestly, something ain’t right there.

Tune in for the tea, the shade, and the drama that’ll have you saying, “Okay, but like... what’s really going on here?”

*When you hear “Haley Joel Osment” in this episode please mentally replace it with “Aly Michalka” in your head.
