The Lost Episode 2: Electric Boogaloo
Returning guest this week is... the echo... Because this is the last full episode we recorded, it's going up anyway. Gabba is fired up over women's rights, and she has some things to say about the new abortion laws. As if Alabama wasn't in enough trouble, they also banned a LGBT cartoon. Meanwhile, the NXIVM cult shows up in very few headlines, and Nike (amongst other foreign labor companies) challenges Trump on tariffs. On the conspiracy side of things NASA pitches their idea of a moon colony, and Nate and Rob recap their weekend at a rock show.

Trump's Deranged and Climates Change
Top commentor turned guest Robbie joins us this week to cover, let's face it, too many topics. Current events revolve around the William Barr fiasco, Venezuela's downfall, and Trump's unhealthy relationship with Iran. Nate is triggered by the thought of a live action Legend of Zelda, we share our reactions to the Sonic the Hedgehog trailer, and a senator finally moves to ban certain microtransactions in video games. The Sandra Bland "suicide" conspiracy gets a new life online, and the Colorodo STEM school shooting revitalizes a seemingly endless debate. We take a look at the antivaccine movement from a new angle, and get a much more realistic perspective on the 2020 democratic field. The main event is all about climate change, the facts versus the fiction, and what we should be doing. Strap yourselves in for a long, but informative edition of Trouble Speak!

Any Given Sunday
Another week, another Trouble Speak! We welcome back long-time guest and friend of the show Adam for some additional perspective on the news and thoughts of the week. Joe Biden is unfortu-er-officially running for president, the easter day bombings shocked the world on sunday, over 12,000 instances of sexual abuse documented in the boy scouts, and much more on the current events side of things. We discuss the future of technology, the possibility of redemption for social media victims, and take a closer look at the democratic field taking shape for the upcoming primary debates. Finally, we discuss the holiday of easter itself, as well as the origins and meanings of many cultural celebrations over the centuries.

Results May Vary
Looking for a podcast full of aimless rants, non sequiturs, and game of thrones spoilers? Look no further! Fan of the show, and occasional commenter, Sam joins us this week to add some perspective, and the discussion goes on a little too long. We have an brief, obligatory muller report... um... report. Game of groans is back, now with 95% less groans! A brief conspiracy mode on the Sol Pais situation, as well as the Notre Dame fire. Bernie is confirmed to be in the one percent, Nate is becoming a democrat for the wrong reasons? And CNN announces the first debate, so we take another look at the candidates. The main event is a critical analysis of universal healthcare, but as with all of the planned topics, we don't stick to them for long. Same day uploads!? I know, we're shocked too.

Stir of Echoes
We're back with a lot to cover. Apologies for some more audio issues, but we're ironing out the wrinkles. This time we're commenting on the live action Cowboy Bebop, Trump didn't collude, Smollett walks, and Cardi B controversy. The more in depth discussion revolves around the demographics of popularity shifting over the years, and what we need to do as individuals to stop conforming to distracting media and find some sort of purpose in life. We make a pit stop to talk about the 2020 elections, and wrap up with an anime sparking a factory farming debate. Is Cardi B a strip club dexter? Do the top videos on youtube deserve your attention? What is the moral solution to eating meat? Let's find out.

Keeps getting better
Very refreshing to hear about sensitive subjects in a less pc manner. This is what it would sound like if a major news organization were taken over by a few of my friends lol
Great Political Banter
I love a podcast that gives me the story from both sides so that I can make judgments on my own instead of having news media outlets try to tell me how to think. This podcast is for all you centrists and nonpartisan citizens out their!
