One of the things I do after dropping my daughter off at school is to listen to Unbiased Updates. As of today, Feb 14, I cannot seem to find Friday's episode. Did I miss something? Looking forward to the next episode.

Y’ALL SHOULD CONSIDER RENAMING THE SHOW AGAIN. LET’S TRY “QUASI BIASED”

12/30/2025

Big B 65

Have to agree with my fellow citizens who question this show’s “unbiased” claim. Today (30 Dec) the host claimed there was an “insurrection” on 06 Jan at the US Capitol. An insurrection would have involved weapons. It was quite the riot and the previous administration ensured any demonstrators they did not agree with were arrested just for being in the area. Ray Epps, however, told people to storm the Capitol—again on video—and was let off. Explain that! There is more than enough video and testimony that shows known agitators in the crowd. The only person that died by firearm was a protester and, contrary to the “narrative,” NO law enforcement officers died at the hands of protesters. The officer the media says died after being struck in the head with a fire extinguisher actually died of a preexisting medical condition. I’m middle right and y’all spew “woke” terms and phrases with surprising frequency. In these moments y’all fail to live up to your Straight Arrow News or Unbiased Updates titles.
