Weekly Skews – Bread and Electoral Circuses Nov 12, 2025

Show notes

After a pretty resounding message from the voters that they should stand strong for healthcare, Senate Democrats make the heroic decision to let Donald Trump have everything he wants and rub their bellies. Then we get into the now possibly moot fight over SNAP and all the silliness around last week’s elections, which included Kentuckyans who were shocked and upset they couldn’t vote against the mayor of New York, and an enthusiast for Nazi-adjacent porn who lost a Lt. Gov race despite debating an AI of his opponent that he made say dumb stuff.

Weekly Skews – From Russia With Stupid Nov 05, 2025

Show notes

We’ve found a new family who fled to Russia to escape Woke, only to endure a Biblical level of suffering, which includes having to snuggle goats to not freeze to death. The lady we’re gonna install as the dictator of Venezuela says they have Hamas now, so please act quickly. And the FBI director joins the mile high club on your dime, patriotically.

Weekly Skews – Let Them Eat Ballrooms Oct 29, 2025

Show notes

First we talk about a fun development in China, that our overlords are certainly jealous of, where the government is forcing people to stop being sad on the internet. Then, we talk about a pretty big special interest group in America called ‘People Who Eat Food,’ and the Trump administration’s plan for everyone to live on Hamburger Helper while he cosplays as Jay Gatsby in a ballroom apparently designed by ChatGPT.

Weekly Skews – Screw It I’ll Do It, ft. BJ Barham Oct 22, 2025

Show notes

This week BJ Barham, the lead singer of American Aquarium, stops by to talk about his run for town board. What’s it like to be in The Rolling Stone the same week you’re being called a Communist for pointing out that local officials are giving sweetheart land deals to their relatives? We get into it. Before that: Jelly Roll-based psyops, the No Kings protests vs. Operation A.I. Sky Diarrhea, and the cartels’ (fake? fake.) bounties on CPB.

Weekly Skews – An AI That Makes You Sweat Oct 15, 2025

Show notes

Did Marjorie Taylor Greene get woke Freaky Friday’d? (No.) We discuss the plan to give your electricity to AI by giving Big Sweaty Brother control over your thermostat. And other AI hijinks, including a peek into our future in Albania, where they made an AI a cabinet minister with hurt feelings. The NY Post has a shocking revelation about the Portland frog, and it’s that he once made a joke they didn’t get. Also, a fun update from the Q Shaman, who filed a lawsuit claiming he is the rightful president, and we are convinced.

Weekly Skews – To End The Shutdown You Gotta Solve These Riddles Three Oct 08, 2025

Show notes

Can you end a government shutdown if no one even understands why it’s happening? Let’s find out. In the meantime, the chemtrails guys and the park rangers who take down makeshift Epstein statues apparently got furloughed. Then, we get into the continuing invasions of random cities and the mysterious case of a CPB helicopter raid involving American children in zip ties that looks like they were used as shock troops to save the investment of a slumlord.

Weekly Skews – A Rose City by Any Other Name Oct 01, 2025

Show notes

We’ve got to invade Portland because the president was confused by footage from 2020 and a lady named Cloud is mad about noise ordinances. RFK Jr. is pretending Tylenol causes autism which, you’ll be shocked, made his fellow anti-vaxxers even madder. No worry, we don’t need medicine anymore because we’re rolling out fake alien technology beds that will regrow our limbs and make us all live forever. Another normal week.

Weekly Skews – A Flurry of Furry Fury Sep 24, 2025

Show notes

It was a perfectly innocent $50k in a fast food bag from an unnamed foreign government, don’t worry about it. The feds continue to focus mostly on running down conspiracy theories around the Kirk killing, while one congressman solved it: It was leather daddy furries. Then Ted Cruz makes a good point about Jimmy Kimmel in the worst possible way.

Good Skews: Folk music during times of struggle with Lizzie No Sep 20, 2025

Show notes

In times of struggle, people have always turned to folk music. From labor anthems to civil rights ballads, these songs remind us who we are and what we’re fighting for. Today, as the world feels increasingly chaotic, folk music is once again rising up to meet the moment.

On this episode of Good Skews, Matt Hildreth sits down with singer, songwriter, and podcaster Lizzie No to talk about the folk revival happening right now. Lizzie shares her journey from New Jersey to Nashville, her vision of folk as a living practice rather than a museum piece, and why contemporary voices matter if the genre is going to stay politically sharp.

Today we talk about the trial of the guy who tried to kill then-candidate Trump last summer. No not that guy, the other one. He’s decided to represent himself, and started off his case by challenging Trump to trial by combat. Then we get into the latest on the killing of Charlie Kirk and the revelation, after a week of FBI flopsweat, that the killer seemingly knew a trans person.
