A sharp, funny politics podcast for people who want the news without the freakout. Each week, Getting Hammered® takes a hammer to the headlines, breaking down politics, media spin, and cultural meltdowns with skepticism and fun. Overcaffeinated and Underprepared®, moderately right and moderately reliable, we never take ourselves too seriously. But keep you informed on serious topics with no panic and no partisan loyalty tests. Just laughs, well-earned side-eye, and occasional libations.

    Socialists Say the Darnedest Things

    Mary Katharine Ham and Victorino Matus talk about the socialist gathering over the weekend and all the loony things they said while wearing their masks, and whether the loony things matter. They also do a long commemoration of 9/11, the inspiring stories of heroism, personal stories, and what the attack and response would look like if it happened today. Also, what the heck is happening in Seattle, and how should one react when his wife gets her hair cut? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    El-Sayed Steps on Rakes and Michelle O Has Hot Takes

    Mary Katharine Ham and Vic Matus talk about Vic's college drop-off adventure with his oldest, Abdul El-Sayed's many foibles as a symbol for the fight inside the Democratic Party (content warning for Hasan Piker quotes, sorry!), the stupidity of the Lake Ontario dust-up and Canada trade stand-off, though hat's off to Sec. Bessent for his trolling elevated to art, the threatened strike and crazy salaries of the Seattle Teachers' Union. And MK explains how the southern schools saved football from the bad decisions of the Northeast and Midwest and simultaneously saved themselves from enrollment issues other schools are facing. Plus, a little Dolly news, and Michelle O's weird parenting takes. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Saying Goodbye and Thank You To Dolly

    Jenna Lee of SmartHERNews joins Mary Katharine Ham this week and the two talk about Dolly Parton, who died Tuesday at the age of 80 after a brief battle with cancer. Fresh out of a slightly unhinged, emotional carline kid pick-up in her Dolly shirt, MK pays tribute to the icon, legend, and downright funny lady who moved us in so many ways. Jenna talks about the make-up advice she got from the lady herself (!) while MK reminisces on a tip she got from another country music star. They talk about their favorite Dolly songs, especially the ones that got them through tough times. Also, huge shoutout to Dollywood. You should all visit! What a lady. What a life.

    The Fancy Dorm Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous

    Mary Katharine Ham and Vic Matus talk college drop-off as Vic's is impending, the ludicrously designed dorm rooms they are seeing, and a recap of MK's 1,000-mile roadtrip. They talk Woke 1.0, primary updates, news from long-deployed Navy ships, some good news on violence and prescription drug prices, the death of Jason Arday, and a lifeguard comes to the White House!

    Get In, Loser, We're Freezing Eggs and Taxing Millionaires

    Mary Katharine Ham and Vic Matus discuss new revelations about Dr. Anthony Fauci's concerns about the COVID vaccine causing miscarriages in the first trimester, as MKH reminisces about the immense social pressure and shaming pregnant women faced for declining the shot, as she did in early 2021. They also talk about AOC's egg-freezing journey (recorded before news broke that she broke up with her fiance), and how it's a soft presidential announcement, then we join her as she laughs off "Woke 1" without taking any accountability. They discuss Megan Romer's DSA disarray, and the excuses being made for Jason Arday. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    The Proximity To Whiteness

    Vic Matus and Mary Katharine Ham discuss Mamdani's groceries, the non-prosecution of the non-vandalism of the Reflecting Pool, the Iran war or lack thereof, Michigan and Wisconsin socialism, Texas looking iffy, whether we should cancel Thanksgiving with Francesca Hong, and a rant about the Gen-Zers after we heard about their parents calling their bosses again. We have to stop this. Also, MK and Vic confess the life skills they didn't have when they left home. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
