EPISODE #96: Welcome back to the pod! Time to party like it’s 2020 with some “fiery, but mostly peaceful protests”. We get into the riots in Los Angeles and all the insanity on the internet. The Waymos have become a victim in this destructive society. Should we arm the Waymos? Did they die for our sins? People like Katy Perry are now rewriting the history of California and America, and the protest extend to multiple cities. Finally, Greta makes it to Israel on her selfie yacht.

EPISODE #90: Welcome back to the pod! Elon took hits from all angles this week. Tesla cars & chargers are being attacked, the stock is down, X went down on Monday, and the people are protesting. The good news? Trump will take one of those Teslas! Our president seemed very impressed with the car, proclaiming “Wow… everything’s computer”. A battle of citizenship is underway as Federal immigration authorities detained Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian graduate student who played a prominent role in anti-Israel protests at Columbia University. Are we abusing free speech rights? In the latest tech news, Sam Altman & ChatGPT release a new model that is going after creative writing.. but is it actually any good? Finally.. the pod bros competition. On one side, Gavin Newsom interviewed Steve Bannon (what?) and on the other side, Michelle Obama's new podcast can barely crack 20k subscribers on YT. The media landscape has changed and it looks like Gavin understands the game better than anyone on the left.

EPISODE #89: This week, we brought our bingo paddles to watch Trump’s address to Congress. Within minutes, everything was out of control. The ladies were dressed in pink, they waved signs, and Al Green was removed. We get into the the decline of decorum, how the Democrat party is completely lost right now, and how culture has completely shifted to the right. Their potential savior may be none other than Gavin Newsom and his new podcast! Compared to left influencers like Hasan Piker who call for the k*lling of senators, maybe Newsom is not all that bad for Democrats? Also, we have a guest this week! Aella joins the show to talk everything s*x, appearing on the “Whatever Podcast”, and where she see’s s*x culture in America.

EPISODE #88: Welcome Back! Jeff Bezos sent shock waves through left wing media. The opinion section of the Washington Post will be undergoing rapid change by emphasizing personal liberties and free markets. This, of course, sent the media into a spiral. It's been a bad month for leftwing media with the AP being banned from the White House Press Room and now MSNBC is cancelling shows like Joy Reid's. The resistance is fighting back with sw*stikas on Teslas and waiting outside Luigi Mangione's court room. Solana gives us his thoughts on the EU update after his travels, and we bring on special guest Ashley to break down what the hell is going on at Reddit.

EPISODE #: This week, we experienced a constitutional crises.. we think? Why is everyone losing their mind over Trump’s basic executive powers? The DOGE team continues to be hard at work, but some believe that these young men should be put in jail. We continue to dig through the wreckage of the Democratic party. In other news, the Super Bowl halftime show was bad, the media refuses to acknowledge the Gulf of America and Elon & Sam Altman continue to wage AI wars.

EPISODE #86: Welcome back to the pod! We’re covering the reveal of the deep state this week in our DOGE Report. Tons of stories regarding the DOGE cuts to the federal government, but what exactly have we been paying for? Is Politico a government sponsored media company? What we do know is that the team working with Elon in charge with fixing our government spending are quite based. From ancient scrolls, to a shit poster known as ’Big Balls. We get into all of the reactions from another insane week in the Trump administration.
