    New Mic- New Desk - New Space- New Start #348
    You can always call the show and leave a message on the Dumbing it Down with Dave "Dumbline" at 845-330-3410.
    It's a smart thing to do.
    In this epsiode, amongst a few other things, Dave discusses his return to podcasting (AGAIN) after a 17 day abscence. At least it wasn't 17 months. Let's hope that never happens again.
    This was a test episode to see if the mic works and the sound is good enough for the air and all of that technical stuff.
    I don't know if and when I'll ever return to mobile podcasting in my Honda FIT or Dodge Caravan, but if and when I do, it'll be a better production than it ever has before. At least I hope so. ***Video is coming soon***
    So please engage with this epsiode via the Spreaker chat, the DIDWD Dumbline at 845-330-3410, or in the DIDWD Facebook group and let me know what you think of the sound and all that, I would greatly appreciate your input.

    Trump/Zelensky, Honest Full Breakdown! #347 Truth.
    If you’d like to call the show and leave a voicemail in response to what you’ve heard call 845-330-3410.
    Keep it brief and possibly clean for a minute or two, and we might just play it on the next show.

    In this episode amongst one or two other things, we discuss the President Trump and Zelensky meeting that blew up in front of the world on television.

    Here’s the link to that full video that I watched twice.

    https://youtu.be/7pxbGjvcdyY?s...

    I watched it twice, and I break it down a minute by minute everything that was said.
    I also talk about the response to the video that was posted on the Dumbing it Down with Dave Facebook group.
    Thank you so much for listening to the show and engaging as well. I appreciate it very much.

    Economic Blackout? What’s it all about?
    Feel free, and feel very good about calling the Dumbing It Down With Dave Dumbline at 845-330-3410. Leave a message of about a minute or two and it just might get on the next episode or the one after that.

    In this episode, we start off by a recap of the previous episode discussing Kendrick Lamar’s performance during the Super Bowl halftime. I still think my thoughts will surprise you.
    The second half of the episode we talk about this “economic blackout” that is scheduled for February 28 and the possibility of blackouts scheduled after that.
    How many people will participate? Will it have any long lasting effect?

    Thank you very much for listening and engaging especially those who are doing that on Spreaker.
    The link to listen via speaker is just below.

    You’ll have to listen to the whole show, because there’s so much to talk about, that it took 60 minutes to get all the thoughts out.
    There’s probably much more to talk about and that depends on you engaging with the show.
    Here’s the the E News video link that explains the feud.

    That’s the Dumbing it Down with Dave Dumbline.

    In this episode #343 from the kitchen table. Dave discusses many topics, and one of them is, if this was your podcast, and it had a lot to do with your life, what would the show title(s) be?

    Or of course call in to the Dumbline at 845-330-3410
    Leave a message (clean if possible) and maybe we’ll play it on the air.
    Several of the other topics discussed were about Dave’s pragmatism, and does it tend to lean left or right politically, or does he stay down the middle towards the truth all the time?
    What are people‘s perceptions of Dave’s pragmatism?
    Does Dave have an absolute agenda?

    Another topic was talking about big Pharma. We discussed big Pharma on television with their gigantic well produced ads.Should they be allowed to advertise on TV?
    Do they control the narrative?
    We read listeners comments and give thanks to those who called me personally.

    This is the third consecutive 1 hour show. Are they too long?

    Communication and Pragmatism 101.
    In this episode titled “Communication and Pragmatism 101”, #342, Dave talks about many things. Amongst those many things, Dave reminds us one more time that the 2008 Kia Rio LX no longer exists and therefore the theme song cannot be played.
    If you like, instead of typing, you can call the show on the Dumbing It Down With Dave Dumbline at 845-330-3410.
    leave a message of about a minute or so keep it clean if you can, and if it makes any sense and pertains to any topics, we can play it on the air as soon as possible.

    Subtitle for the show is pragmatism, truth, happiness, and the search for it all. No matter what we talk about we try to bring it back to being a human and it’s all about being a human being.

    During this episode, Dave talks about all different forms of enabling and being enabled. Common sense always comes into play,as well as human behavior and many other factors and criteria that we guide our lives by.

    Charlie Kirk and the Deaf Part 2&3. Call 845-330-3410
    If you like to, you can call the show on the Dumbing It Down With Dave Dumbline at 845-330-3410.
    Leave a message and if at all possible, I will try to air it on the next or relevant show

    In this episode amongst many topics, Dave continues on where he left off in part one regarding Charlie Kirk, the deaf and Dave himself.

    In total,both shows are an hour and a half, but I think well worth listening to, to understand a little bit more about myself and my pragmatism, in relation to the rest of the world.

    Charlie Kirk and the Deaf #340
    If you’d like to engage with the show, but don’t wanna write and feel more comfortable speaking, you can call the Dumbing It Down With Dave Dumbline at 845-330-3410. Leave a message preferably about a minute or so, and try to keep it clean if not, I’ll do my best to air on the next relevant show.

    In this episode amongst many topics, Dave works his way towards getting to the topic of Charlie Kirk and the Deaf.
    Some of those topics are about the snowstorm that occurred two days before recording this episode and the day before where he had to snow blow himself out of it.
    He talks about how he is NOT mechanically inclined and he can’t rely on a snowblower to work every time over the course of the last 15 to 20 years. He doesn’t really do the preventative maintenance he supposed to be doing.

    Dave also mentions his production company, which is .001 productions which can also be spelled Point001 productions. Dave supports the independent podcasts, way more than he supports anybody in the mainstream media or anything resembling it.
    He ends up discussing about being the dissenting voice. A dissenting voice on the left, and dissenting voice on the right, he tries not to lean in any particular direction as he is a pragmatic and that’s all that really matters.

    He talks about how he loves engagement, and always asking why. Even when he gets an answer, he still wants to know why.
    He’s very proud of owning his show, and not a slave to sponsors. His opinion is not tainted by money.
    He mentioned a message he received from a friend from the past named Jason Howard, who is also a stand-up comedian and has worked with Dave in the past.
    Time eventually ran out on the show, so this is part one. Maybe we’ll let this one breathe a bit and then we’ll publish part two in the next 3 to 4 days.
    We could’ve done a longer show, but I felt like a half hour is really the appropriate amount of Dave. What do you think?
