We start with the Dominion defamation lawsuit settlement with Fox (one of the largest defamation settlements in US history), more unethical behavior revelations from Justice Clarence Thomas, and then we dig into the horrific video that resurfaced of David Choe bragging about raping a masseuse, and the disappointing silence from Netflix, Ali Wong, and Steven Yeun.
 
We see you: We do a giant we see you to all the horrific shootings of unarmed, innocent people who have gone to the wrong door (Ralph Yarl), wrong driveway (Kaylin Gillis) and wrong car (Payton Washington) and been severely injured or killed.

We spend a little time discussing the latest shooting at a bank in Louisville, Kentucky and then discuss the Tennessee legislature's ridiculous behavior, expelling the (now reinstated) black lawmakers, Justin Jones and Justin J. Pearson. Then we rant about the new reports that the unethical Justice Thomas has been gifted jet-setting and super-yacht luxury vacations with conservative billionaire / Nazi memorabilia collector Harlan Crow for over 20 years without disclosing any of it. WTAF. And then we get into the hugely concerning ruling by a Trump appointed judge which undermines 23 years of legal use of Mifepristone. What a shit show. It's probably the most significant setback for reproductive health since Roe was overturned last year. 
 
We see you: Wealthy residents using 12x more water than everyone else, Diane Feinstein, comments on Ariana Grande’s body, Suzanne Seddon, Twitter/Elon Musk driving NPR off Twitter, Texas Rep. Bryan Slaton

It's official! A single solitary consequence! Trump was handed a criminal indictment for mishandling campaign funds for Stormy Daniels hush money. He was charged with 34 felony charges of falsifying business records. The party of law and order... We also discuss the continuing tragedy of gun violence in U.S. schools in the wake of the Nashville shooting and the results of the Wisconsin Supreme Court race. 
We see you: Waukesha, WI elementary school administrators banning the Dolly Parton/Miley Cyrus song "Rainbowland," Kansas legislature banning transgender athletes from girls’ and women’s sports from kindergarten through college, GOP lawmakers overriding Kentucky governor’s veto of transgender bill, Oklahoma abortion access, NYPD, the protests in France

We cannot wait. We keep refreshing Twitter and the New York Times. Will Trump be handed a criminal indictment for mishandling campaign funds for Stormy Daniels hush money?? Will he finally face one single consequence for his actions? We need to know. We also spend a few minutes discussing the potential ban of Tik Tok in the U.S. if it poses a national security risk. 
We see you: Florida bill banning discussion of menstrual cycles in elementary school, Florida bill HB 999, Wyoming banning bills used for abortion, Florida revising the story of Rosa Parks in their textbooks to remove any mention of race and racism, Taylorsville, Mississippi mishandling of Rasheem Carter's murder, Bonner General Health in Idaho stopping obstetrics care and baby delivery due to lack of doctors (all fleeing because of the near-total abortion ban)

In honor of our 200th episode we reflect on what's happened in the last five years for us personally and in the political landscape. A LOT has changed, from AOC bursting onto the scene to Roe being overturned, womp womp. We also discuss the Oscars, the overnight implosion of Silicon Valley Bank and a bunch of VC tech bro hypocrisy and Lt. Governor of Tennessee Randy McNally's suspicious online behavior. 
 
Thank you to all our listeners - we're so happy to have reached over 85 countries, and have regular listeners all 50 states in the US and all provinces of Canada and Australia! Thank you for your support - it means so much!

Has the thirst for The Last of Us Star Pedro Pascal gone too far? We're here to tackle that important question. We also wish each other a happy international women's day...lol.
