    This week it’s a two man show as Rob was out with the Irish flu. Drew and Mike take the reins and dive into Conor McGregor’s recent injury and defeat (2:29)—orthopedic surgeons are making a killing off the UFC.

    Fauci freedom and free-riders

    Fauci freedom and free-riders

    The CDC changing the mask guidelines might have been the most important event last week, but we found an Army recruitment video, "Emma The Calling," that makes the CIA video look like a masterpiece. As a result, we knock down the virtue signal and highlight the shortsightedness of the Army's objective. Next, we discuss the Israel and Palestine conflict and the stupidity of world peace (27:20). Rob and Drew share their love for Julius Caesar (56:54). Epic sued Apple and hilarity ensues (1:12:46). Next, the gang emphasizes the importance of protecting polite speech (1:25:33).

    One Week Streak

    One Week Streak

    With one week with no televised police shootings the gang brings some variety. Opening with Chris Weidman's horrific injuries we pivot to the current state of fighting (15:45), some technical on the UFC recent IPO (27:11), and what would a UFC talk be without Rogan (34:38) and his recent vaccine woes. Into the second hour we transition to a more governmental tone discussing Caitlin Jenner’s run on the Republican ticket (47:29), Chauvin updates (1:02:06), and police unions (1:24:19). Drew really brings us home as he nukes all of Hollywood and their recent monstrosities! We hit a Mortal Kombat Review (1:35:55) and as for the Oscars--1-star; we simply cannot recommend (1:43:18). Thank to all our loyal listeners, here’s to the podcast being in its 30’s.

    Stop using your snake brain or you're next!

    Stop using your snake brain or you're next!

    Another eventful week that provided a myriad of topics to discuss. Joe Rogan's Spotify deal has created a paradigm shift in the podcast world, and his guests suck. The gang discusses international immigration policies and Australia's refugee island (6:37). Next, we highlight bizarre and narcissistic political agendas (21:37). There was another police shooting in Columbus and everyone else has a better way to handle a knife-wielding assailant. Lebron James proves he is a fool and we detail the 21-foot rule and the danger of knives (30:28). Derek Chauvin received the correct verdict but was he held accountable for his actions, no says our lizard brains (49:00). Tribalism leads to siloed thinking and ruins public policy (1:01:50). AI cannot answer moral dilemmas (1:29:19). Navalny gets hungry (1:42:27).  

    The First Round Is On Us--American Gun Culture

    The First Round Is On Us--American Gun Culture

    This week the gang dives deep on the shootings we’ve been seeing by both law enforcement and mass killers. The episode opens with some humorous commentary on a bobcat attack viral video (2:15), but we quickly transition to police shootings this week (6:10). We spend a majority of the first hour on these shootings, our takes given our experience with firearms, and what we see right and wrong. In the second hour we pivot into gun control issues (1:06:00) and what we see coming down the pike in terms of legislation. We touch on problems in journalism (1:36:00) and wrap up on a high note about the new Lord of the Rings series coming to Amazon (1:46:00). We hope to hear your thoughts on this one—as always thanks for the support!
