Ep 175: January 6th Committee Hearings So Far

Thursday Jun 23, 2022

Thursday Jun 23, 2022

We discuss the January 6th Committee hearings so far. So much crime and fraud perpetrated by Trump - we knew this, but somehow there are STILL so many stunning revelations about how involved he truly was in direct efforts to overturn our free and fair election.


We see you: Brazil court denying 11 year old an abortion, Eric Greitens, FINA, Steve King, Elon Musk, Congress swiftly passing a law protecting SCOTUS families like Ginni Thomas while sleeping on desperately needed gun safety legislation for the rest of the country

Ep 173: The Depp vs. Heard Verdict is Depressing

Thursday Jun 09, 2022

Thursday Jun 09, 2022

We discuss the verdict in the Depp vs Heard case, and all the ways it depresses us! It sets a terrible precedent for domestic violence cases moving forward, it doesn't seem rooted in fact, it might be seen as the nadir of the #metoo movement, and just overall adds to our sense that the country is in a dark place which will only become darker come the midterms. 
 
We see you: Men on the internet criticizing Simone Johnson, SCOTUS, Pregnancy Registry in Poland, Tempe Police, Jill Biden

Ep 172: The Police Response in Uvalde

Thursday Jun 02, 2022

Thursday Jun 02, 2022

We discuss the continued fallout from last Tuesday's mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. The more we learn about the police's inept response the worse it gets. There were police on the scene within minutes and outside the classroom door for nearly an hour before intervention, despite repeated calls from the children from inside the classroom. It is unfathomable how such a disconnect managed to persist for this hour. So much for the "good guys with guns" theory. 
 
We see you: Matthew Morrison, Kansas City PD, racist Star Wars fandom, Rikers Island deaths, Elon Musk, Amy Schumer haters

Ep 171: Gun Violence...Forever?

Thursday May 26, 2022

Thursday May 26, 2022

On Tuesday a gunman murdered 19 children and two teachers at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. Last week a shooter murdered 10 people in a grocery store in Buffalo, New York. No meaningful gun control has been passed in the nearly 25 years since Columbine. How much senseless violence has to occur before lawmakers actually do something? The US is the only economically advantaged country where mass shootings are an issue. We're tired, angry, and so deeply sad. Action, now. 
 
No we see yous this week. Just processing the depressing state of things.

Ep 170: SCOTUS Likely Overturning Roe v. Wade

Thursday May 05, 2022

Thursday May 05, 2022

We process the news that the worst case scenario is upon us. The Supreme Court is most likely going to fully overturn 50 years of precedent and overturn Roe v. Wade and we are gutted, devastated and furious. Justice Alito's 98 page majority draft opinion leaked on Monday, and was verified Tuesday by Chief Justice Roberts. We understand this is a draft and things could change, but they probably won't. Proceed accordingly. 

 
We spend the entire podcast on this hellacious news. No we see yous this week.

Thursday Apr 28, 2022

Thursday Apr 28, 2022

We discuss the messy trial of Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard. There's a lot to parse through, and the trial will continue through May, so we'll circle back when there's a verdict, but for now, no one is looking good. 
 
We see you: Florida Citizens Alliance, Man who self-immolated on Earth Day, Flight attendants not being paid before takeoff, Syracuse PD, Trump, abuse in NH children’s care facility

Thursday Apr 21, 2022

He was subsequently fired and he sued the company and won 450k in lost wages and damages for mental anguish. We also briefly discuss the lifting of the airplane mask mandate.

Ep 166: Ketanji Brown Jackson & the Oscars Slap

Thursday Apr 07, 2022

Thursday Apr 07, 2022

We get into the infamous Slap. Discussion around this incident at the Oscars is especially relevant as we watched the disgraceful SCOTUS confirmation hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson. From the judiciary committee to the Oscars we should all take a serious step back and reflect on the historic and widespread disrespect black women endure. There are so many ways this country and its citizens need to improve, and a great start would be to give black women the basic respect they deserve. Senate Democrats could also take note. 
 
We see you: Madison Cawthorn, Joe Manchin, Tennessee state legislature, Ginni Thomas, Oklahoma house of representatives, the Grammys
