A Millennial girl and a Gen Xer guy deconstruct the Washington Nationals and the game of MLB baseball generally. Both devotional and irreverent, we blow up the “sports talk” genre with humorous, unapologetic, and shamelessly opinionated baseball news outside the press box, the dugout, and the stadium urinals.

UFOs/Aliens – Part 2: Are They Chill? Or, Is Invasion Imminent?

Out Of This World Video: https://bit.ly/444RzKs The White House has just released a massive number of previously top-secret videos and documents from the DIA, CIA, FBI, and DOD – all related to UFOs. In our preceding UFO episode, we replayed popular episodes on the topic from the recent past. BUT this episode is entirely NEW. Anuradha and I welcome our esteemed guest, Maria Barnes, to our microphone. Longtime film/video producer, director, and writer; college professor; author of several books; podcaster, and many other things, Maria has her own unique theory about extraterrestrials that you will definitely want to hear. We mention the Drake Equation which describes the overwhelming mathematical probability that intelligent life should exist elsewhere in the universe. https://bit.ly/4gevn7N We also mention the famous psychanalyst Carl Jung’s 1958 book, “Flying Saucers: A Modern Myth of Things Seen in the Skies” On Amazon: https://bit.ly/4wgcV3w . Jung believed that after the 1947 “Roswell Incident” we socially projected UFO delusions upon ourselves in the wake of the existential threat of the cold war and possible sudden annihilation. You folks decide what is true….and then tell us. scandalsheetpod.com@gmail.com Anuradha can be found at her Instagram accounts: @anuradhaduz_food and @artist_anuradhachhibber.

UFOs/Aliens Are BACK And They’re Bigger Than Ever!

The White House has just released a massive number of previously top-secret videos and documents from the DIA, CIA, FBI, and DOD related to UFOs. There is also a new film by Steven Speilberg that reveals a conspiracy between Extraterrestrials and world governments (his biggest first weekend box-office career open). My co-host and expert ET-hunter, Anuradha, and I intend to get to the bottom of this 79 year conspiracy and share with our viewers/listeners. In addition, we will be joined by seasoned podcaster and ET-conspiracy expert, Maria Barnes. She will blow your mind. Stay tuned! In the meantime, we are sharing this amazing episode from 2023, the last time, the United States Congress convened a multi-day hearing to investigate UFO’s and brought in decorated Marine/Naval aviators to testify, share videos they also saw with their own eyes, and other empirical evidence, such as radar.

Game Of Thrones – Wild Success To Tragic Backlash – COMPLETE EPISODE

Amazing Video Version: https://bit.ly/3PLBJkk This includes our hilarious Behind-The-Scenes Bonus. On its 15th anniversary, we explore the origins, legacy, impact, and behind-the-scenes stories from the most popular TV show in history. Despite its phenomenal success, it was heavily criticized for unnecessarily graphic violence, gratuitous nudity, misogyny, and on-screen rape of female characters. But like they say, “It’s not TV – it’s HBO”, right? We also examine the extraordinary backlash against the 8th and final season that profoundly tarnished the show’s reputation with fans. A startling fall from grace. Where did the producers go wrong? We welcome back returning guest Jim Mauer for his amazing insights.

Zombie Apocalypse NOW!

Western culture can’t get enough of its zombie-crack addiction - with a seemingly endless stream of movies, TV series’, video games, merchandise, and graphic novels. Total annual consumer revenue rivals the competing ‘vampire’ horror genre and is in the $$ billions. How come? We welcome our guest Dylan Cuellar, who has a podcast of his own. In many circles he is acknowledged as an perceptive commentator on literature, movies, and media - and he is still under 30!. We were lucky to grab him for a few minutes to share his unique insights on the zombie phenomena across pop culture and what it represents for us. YOU’LL LOVE OUR COMEDY-COLD OPEN starring Bernice, Thad, and first co-host, Kassia. We are beset by an army of Zombies! Dylan co-hosts his own podcast with his wife Kassia: “Unburied Books”: https://apple.co/3JlbgDE / Twitter: @unburiedbooks Our music is composed, preformed and produced by the genius John Hoekstra.

Paul McCartney (Post-Beatles) - Live And Let Die?

Amazing Video: https://bit.ly/4sQ44n5 Since age 17, Sir Paul McCartney has had an amazing 66 year career in the music industry – and for decades often at the top of the Billboard charts. And even at age 83 today, he is still turning out new music, with a new album out this May. But the creator of dozens of the world’s most cherished rock songs and love ballads has endured a turbulent and sometimes painful life. We dive deep into his rollercoaster existence with very few real-world silly love songs in his post-Beatles life. We are joined by frequent guest, John Hoekstra, professional music composer and producer, for expert commentary. We are inspired by a recent award-winning documentary about Paul’s life after the Beatles, called “Man On the Run” (on Prime). Join us to learn about the Paul McCartney you probably don’t know. (Don’t worry. We’re celebrating him. He still comes out as the great guy he is… just a bunch of bad breaks, which billionaires aren’t suppose to have, right?)

Girl Scout Cookie Cartel? Part 2 of 2

Video version: http://youtube.com/watch?v=0RIB5-cJgJk Current co-host, Anuradha shares her own unique experiences as a girl scout in the 4th grade - having legally immigrated with her family to the U.S. from Kenya, only a couple years before. Regular listeners know that Anuradha is ethnically South Asian/Indian and a practicing Hindu. But her religious dietary practices apparently don’t eliminate thin mint cookies :)! As a newcomer to her adopted country, Anuradha tried many social/school activities activates to fit in. What did she think of the Girl Scouts? -- If I told you, it would be a spoiler! A MUST LISTEN! We love to share Anuradha’s great life story just bits and pieces at a time. More to come. Anuradha can be found at her Instagram accounts: @anuradhaduz_food and @artist_anuradhachhibber. FYI – in the episode thumbnail, Anuradha is depicted as a 4th grader on the left, back when she actually WAS a participating girl scout. And on the right … if she wore the uniform today (hee- hee. I'm in the dog house for this, I think.) Our music is composed, preformed and produced by the genius John Hoekstra.
