    Episode 112: "Talking Trump: The American Emperor Aftershow!" OH CAN('T)ADA

    The Trump character manages to do the impossible- piss off a bunch of Canadians! What's next, turning Labradors in a-holes?  Honestly, sometimes I wish I could talk to him and get him to take it a little easy on our friends, but unfortunately, I don't have a luxury air-liner to offer him, so I doubt my call will be returned.  Also, the new characters are out- who will stay and who will go?!  We make our predictions here!   Plus, after watching "Escape from Alcatraz", the Trump character announces plans to re-open the prison- thank the Lord he wasn't watching "Magic Mike", or we'd all be dancing in a male strip club to make enough money to open up a business!  And, is "American Emperor" really turning traditional story-telling on its ear?!  Is the new Pope Catholic? (Seriously, is He, He seems a little to chill to be.)  As always, please subscribe to us on Youtube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

    Episode 109: "Talking Trump: The American Emperor Aftershow!" The Gulp of Mexico! Part 1

    It's "Talking Trump Thursday" (a new thing!) which means a new episode of "Talking Trump: The American Emperor Aftershow!" When we last left off, the "Trump Character" had won the election with a disturbing amount of support from the American people. During the stretch drive of his campaign, he revealed a secret weapon of sorts, a man with more money than any other human being in the world, and a new character, "Elon Musk".  Musk's limitless fortunes and social media presence, along with a seeming pivotal 4-hour interview with comedian turned "medical advice giver" Joe Rogan, put the Trump character in the driver's seat and the 4-time indicted felon, who wears orange make-up and incited an insurrection, cruised to victory over an articulate and attractive standing Vice President, who was a former Senator and attorney general.  As season two came to a close we saw the Trump character's 3 other major indictments fade into the ether, long delayed by corrupt judges appointed by the Trump character himself, and he began choosing his cabinet team, each choice more offensive than the last. Russian assets for Director of National Intelligence, a vaccine denier with a "brain worm" for Director of Health and Human Services, and a weekend Fox morning show host for Secretary of Defense. As Season Three of American Emperor begins, the Trump character walks into the same rotunda in the Capitol building, that just four years earlier his supporters broke into, waving Confederate Flags and smearing poop on the walls.
