    All Up in That Quarantine Life, A Surprise Dramatic Reading, Bernie’s ‘Assessing’ His Campaign, The CATS Movie’s Mythical ‘Butthole Cut’, We Talk to Real Medical Professionals, Utah Earthquake, Quarantine Media Recommendations

    This week, we talk about–you guessed it–the worldwide surplus of Unicorns and jellybeans!
    Okay, that was a bit of wishful thinking, it’s more like COVID-19, Bernie vs. Biden, the Utah Earthquake, and other not-so-upbeat stories. But Courtney surprises Brent with a dramatic reading and we talk about cat buttholes in a way you may want to sit down for!

Keep up to date and stay happy!

I tend to avoid the news because it makes me feel downtrodden, as I imagine it does with many others, with trends like these I feel like I’m able to laugh along with friends as I stay informed about this crazy world we live in.
Thank you Courtney, Travis and Brent for brightening up my week consistently!

It’s just a talk show

Akin to the Morning Show or The View, the show covers articles from various publications without much if any original content. In response to the articles, which themselves are taken from “progressive” publications and are never questioned, the hosts will voice their opinions, which all also tend to lean quite heavily towards the further ends of “progressivism”. Podcast was better with only two hosts, downgraded to 3 stars since the inclusion of the new host seems to have disrupted the chemistry of the original two.
