Ep 800 Wait, 800 Episodes?!?
We celebrate our 800th podcast episode. Wow! Thanks for supporting our podcast work.
And for our 800th episode we have to start off with Kristi Noem's dog murder and Marjorie Taylor Greene's unconscious (and NOT Christian) anti-Semitism? Where's the cake?
Also thinking back to 1968, which 2024 is NOT.

Ep 799 Science Fiction University: 1940 Vs 1951
We look at a 1940's short story and the 1951 movie that was kinda sorta based on that story.
And yes, "The Day The Earth Stood Still" has definitely stood the test of time.

Ep 796: The Great Republican Sell-Out
Trump has a longstanding history of grifting down-ballot Republicans. Instead of supporting his so-called party, Trump is forever leveraging his status for personal profit.
But the intrigue doesn't end there. We also unpack the un-surprising transformations of "Never Trump" Republicans like Chris Sununu and Bill Barr, who have suddenly found Trump an acceptable candidate for president.
And we look back at the long-standing pushy partnership between evangelicals and Republicans, discovering that it has always been transactional, even preceding the era of George W. Bush.
And Marge fails at impeachment. Sad!

Customer Reviews
#797
another excellent show! driftglass & bluegal are amazing historians regarding republican, “yeah you did say or do that” and i love that! they have the receipts/examples and more. sooo knowledgeable plus a lot of wit and humor, love it!!
Get the scoop for real, from real people
A listener for years. These folks cheer me up. In a sea of FOX News-poisoned people & news, these folks cheer me up. They call a spade a spade, intelligently & with style.
TikTok
I have enjoyed listening to this podcast for a while now, but it was pretty annoying what you had to say about TikTok in the first 30 seconds of today’s episode. I always find it stupid when people discuss things they do not understand with such conviction. Just so you know, a lot of your listeners, including myself, learned about your podcast from TikTok. I still enjoy your podcast, but please do better. It’s not the “data getting into the wrong hands” that Our government is worried about, it’s that so many people have access to first hand information and they can’t control it. It’s very suppressive, and everyone should care even if they’re not on TikTok.
