    Stupid Politics

    High concepts like failure mode analysis, low concepts like Gregg's clothing, and a revisit to the Idiot Zoo, as we drop our self-imposed restriction on political commentary. Really, it's our usual screaming at annoying people, but with politics as the backdrop. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    We're Back, Baby!

    Season 6! There's a lot to catch up on including the weather, doctor's notes, and our new collaborative audio drama. Oh, and Gregg will be calling James "Elsa" going forward. We are on a new podcast hosting platform. If anything sounds weird, like we suddenly became funny and/or relevant, please let us know so we can fix it! Hosted on Acast.

    Ramp On, Ramp Off

    After an unintended month-long hiatus we are back. The brain relies on chemicals, and we rely on expert advice to regulate those chemicals.

    Bouncing Back

    It takes me half of the episode to get to the point, but this episode is about bouncing back and taking the wins when things seem to be falling apart all over the place. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
