Episode 113- Black History Part 3 with Joyelle Johnson Feb 28, 2020

Show notes

You've probably heard of the Tulsa Race Riots. They happened in 1921 in the Greenwood section of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Calling it a riot is incredibly misleading because what happened was a massacre. An angry mob killed over three hundred people and left about 100,000 black Americans homeless. My friend Joyelle and I barely scratched the surface of what happened, but make no mistake, what happened was a massacre.

Episode 112- Black History Part 2 w Robert Dean Feb 20, 2020

Show notes

Folks...today we have another Black History Month Episode. All my black friends are way to successful and busy, but we had comedian Robert Dean come in to talk about Stop and Frisk, Greg Scarpa's work for the FBI, Magic Johnson, and how to reconcile with this country's history.

Episode 111- The Murder of Fred Hampton with Alex English Feb 14, 2020

Show notes

Happy Black History Month, folks. This afternoon I sat down with Alex English. We started the conversation talking about the murder of Chicago Black Panther Party Leader Fred Hampton in 1969, and then we had a great conversation about the links between capitalism and racism, black Christianity, whitey teaching homosexuality to black men, and if it is white men or white women who are more evil.

Check out the 1971 documentary The Murder of Fred Hampton, available on Youtube, and follow Alex on social media.

Episode 110- The Assassination of RFK with David Spector Feb 05, 2020

Show notes

Folks... if you think this primary has been bad... a few decades ago the Democratic frontrunner had a REALLY rough primary. His name was Bobby Kennedy and he got his fucking shit rocked in a hotel kitchen. Comedian David Spector joins us to talk about The Kennedys' rise to power, conspiracy's around RFK's death and the CIA's mind control programs. We close out the show with some riffs about 9/11 and wonder what our boy Larry Silverstein is up to. Hope you enjoy.

Episode 109- Children vs the Cartels with Eli Sairs Jan 29, 2020

Show notes

Well guys, Mexico is pretty f*cked up right now. In a village in Guerrero where people have been terrorized by local gangs, kids as young as six are being given firearms and trained how to use them, or, according to some, "the cartels will kill them like little chickens." But is giving guns to children a good idea, or just a short-sighted solution to a more complex problem. My friend Eli Sairs and I get to the bottom of this. Then my friend Maria Guido calls in, a social worker who specializes in juvenile justice and early childhood trauma to provide her professional opinion.

Episode 108- Dog Fighting with Kerryn Feehan Jan 22, 2020

Show notes

Folks...as an animal lover, it's tough to admit that there are people out there who will make sweet Pit Bulls fight each other for money. But there are. Comedian Kerryn Feehan comes on to talk about the negative stigma about pit bulls, the money in dog fighting rings, and if these monsters who make these sweet baby boys and girsl fight should ever be rehabilitated. (Spoiler alert: No lol)

Episode 107- Iran with Bassam Shawl Jan 15, 2020

Show notes

Today on the show, comedian Bassam Shawl joins us to talk about Iran. We talk extrajudicial assassinations, how the U.S. overthrew democratically-elected leader Mohammad Mossadegh in the 1950s, the Islamic Revolution in 1979, Obama's nuclear deal and how our genius president is making moves and playing 4-D chess.

Episode 106- More Audio Problems with Dylan Palladino Jan 09, 2020

Show notes

Well guys... I recorded an episode about Iraq this weekend on someone else's Zoom and I went to upload it last night and couldn't find the episode. But Dylan and I banged out something this afternoon. We talk about noodles, getting owned by a Holocaust Survivor, watching your mom tweet about her dating life, and the new Netflix Documentary The Devil Next Door.
