NATIONAL DAY: International Chihuahua Appreciation Day — A celebration of the tiny dogs with oversized confidence, endless energy, and the remarkable ability to sound like a full-sized security system despite weighing eight pounds. BIRTHDAY: Rob Gronkowski (1989–Still Living) — Former NFL superstar tight end known for his dominance with the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, as well as his larger-than-life personality on and off the field. THIS DAY IN HISTORY: 1973 — The United States launched Skylab, America’s first space station, marking a major step forward in long-duration space exploration and orbital science research. --- FET FED UP Senator John Fetterman publicly criticized far-left political figures in Seattle, including officials associated with openly socialist and communist positions, calling some of the rhetoric and policies “absolute insanity.” His comments are drawing attention because they represent growing divisions inside the Democratic Party itself over how far left the party should move. ---- UC PARTIES TOO HARD… LITERALLY Students and residents near UC Santa Barbara are on edge following reports of a horrifying violent assault involving rape and strangulation near the campus area. Authorities continue investigating the incident while concerns over student safety and nightlife culture are once again under national scrutiny. --- BLUE BURGLAR BUNGLES BANK BOUNTY Bay Area authorities arrested alleged bank robbery suspects after investigators reportedly used one suspect’s bright blue hair as a key identifying feature.

    Poopie Porch Present

While overall inflation has cooled compared to previous peaks, consumers are still feeling the squeeze as manufacturers quietly raise prices or shrink product sizes to maintain profits. The Take: Americans are developing a new hobby called “staring at the receipt in disbelief.” At this point inflation isn’t just hurting luxury purchases — it’s slowly turning ordinary middle-class habits into “maybe next paycheck” decisions. --- MAINE TO TEXAS REFUGEES GET A RUDE PORCH PRESENT The What: A Texas couple who reportedly relocated to Maine over climate concerns received an unpleasant surprise when they discovered a stranger had apparently slept and defecated on their porch. The bizarre incident quickly spread online, fueling sarcastic commentary about idealized views of relocation and the realities of growing homelessness and public disorder issues across the country. The Take: Every place has its problems. Some people flee heat, politics, taxes, or crowds only to discover human chaos is basically America’s most renewable resource. Turns out there’s no magical ZIP code where weirdness stops happening. --- SNAP THEM UP The What: A large-scale food stamp fraud investigation tied to Minnesota has sparked outrage after authorities alleged millions of dollars in SNAP benefits were improperly obtained or misused. Critics argue weak oversight and government inefficiency allowed the scheme to flourish for years while taxpayers footed the bill. The Take: Government programs always sound compassionate in theory — until someone discovers the cash register has been left open for years. Stories like this fuel public frustration because honest people struggling to buy groceries watch fraudsters game systems with little accountability. ---- SHOW CREDITS: Thank you to my co-host, Ken Madden of MaddK Studio Audio credits and Producer Jason Radosevich Horrible Designs Cast: Kate the Duchess of NJ and John Jamingo of theBoomer Bunker Aaron of I had to Say it Boomer Bob of the Boomer Bob Show Lorenzo from Misanthrope Radio 2.0 Cody the Beard as the Last Word.

    Death and Taxes

    Colokum Craft Coffee Use the Promo Code [WSMG15] For 15% of any purchase through June 2026 Boomer Bunker Dischord Become a Bunker Dweller Aaron Kickstarter Help Aaron with his Spicy Kickstarter 552 Death and Taxes DAILY MARKERS NATIONAL DAY: National Hospital Day — A day recognizing hospitals, nurses, doctors, support staff, and healthcare workers who keep the medical system running, often under stressful and demanding conditions. BIRTHDAY: George Carlin (1937–2008) — Legendary stand-up comedian and sharp-edged social critic famous for his fearless observational humor, counterculture commentary, and the iconic routine “Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television.” THIS DAY IN HISTORY: 1994 — *Pulp Fiction* premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, launching Quentin Tarantino into mainstream Hollywood fame and redefining independent crime cinema for an entire generation. --- IN CASE OF DEATH… BREAK GLASS The What: Reports indicate North Korea has expanded its military doctrine to include automatic nuclear retaliation protocols if Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un is killed during an attack or assassination attempt. The announcement comes amid rising tensions involving Iran, Russia, China, and growing instability across multiple global hotspots. The Take: Nothing says “stable world leadership” quite like building a planetary dead-man’s switch. The frightening part isn’t just the weapons anymore — it’s the increasing number of governments openly discussing scenarios where humans are intentionally removed from the decision-making process entirely. --- STATE GAS TAXES: THE NEVER-ENDING ROAD TRIP ROBBERY The What: New comparisons of state and federal gas taxes are once again reminding drivers just how wildly fuel costs vary across the country. California continues to sit near the top of the list thanks to layered state taxes, environmental fees, and regulatory costs that push prices far above the national average. The Take: Americans used to judge road trips by mileage. Now we judge them by whether we need a small personal loan before filling the tank. At some point people stop asking “Why is gas expensive?” and start asking “Where exactly is all this money going?” --- FIVE GUYS… FEWER GUYS The What: Five Guys is reportedly closing multiple California locations as financial pressures continue hitting fast-food chains across the state. Rising labor costs, operational expenses, inflation, and shifting consumer spending habits are creating serious challenges even for once-booming restaurant brands. The Take: California keeps proving that eventually somebody has to pay for “progress,” and increasingly it’s the businesses and customers splitting the check. When burgers, fries, and a drink start approaching steakhouse pricing, people begin reconsidering how badly they really wanted the fries. ---- SHOW CREDITS: Thank you to my co-host, Ken Madden of MaddK Studio Audio credits and Producer Jason Radosevich Horrible Designs Cast: Kate the Duchess of NJ and John Jamingo of theBoomer Bunker Aaron of I had to Say it Boomer Bob of the Boomer Bob Show Lorenzo from Misanthrope Radio 2.0 Cody the Beard as the Last Word.

BIRTHDAY: Sabrina Carpenter (1999–Still Living) — Singer, songwriter, and actress who first gained attention on Disney’s Girl Meets World. THIS DAY IN HISTORY: 1858 — Minnesota officially became the 32nd state admitted to the United States. ---- $15… REALLY? (Calmatters.org) California Governor Gavin Newsom is facing criticism after backing away from a pilot program that would have increased jury duty pay from the current $15 per day to roughly $100 per day. The rollback comes as California struggles with major budget shortfalls, forcing lawmakers to scale back or reconsider expensive programs across the state. For many Californians, the move highlights how disconnected the current jury compensation system remains from real-world living costs. ---- CALIFORNIA TRANS VOLLEYBALL GOES TRACK! (New York Post) Controversy is growing after a transgender California high school athlete who previously competed in volleyball reportedly transitioned into track and field competition and immediately began dominating events. The story has reignited national debate over fairness, biological advantages, and the future of women’s sports competition rules. ---- AOC: CUTE… BUT DUMB AS A BOX OF HAMMERS? (Not the Bee) Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is taking heat online after claiming the American Revolution was essentially a revolt against “the billionaires of their time.” Critics blasted the comment as historically shallow and politically performative, while supporters argued she was simplifying economic frustration with elite ruling classes. ---- SHOW CREDITS: Thank you to my co-host, Ken Madden of MaddK Studio Audio credits and Producer Jason Radosevich Horrible Designs Cast: Kate the Duchess of NJ and John Jamingo of theBoomer Bunker Aaron of I had to Say it Boomer Bob of the Boomer Bob Show Lorenzo from Misanthrope Radio 2.0 Cody the Beard as the Last Word.

    Jury Duty: You're Welcome!

    Colokum Craft Coffee Use the Promo Code [WSMG15] For 15% of any purchase through June 2026 Boomer Bunker Dischord Become a Bunker Dweller Aaron Kickstarter Help Aaron with his Spicy Kickstarter 550 Jury Duty: You're Welcome! DAILY MARKERS NATIONAL DAY: JURY DUTY SURVIVOR DAY BIRTHDAY: BRUCE MAGEE THIS DAY IN HISTORY: THE GOVERNOR ISSUES A STAY OF EXECUTION --- WELCOME TO THE JURY THRONES Jury duty sounds simple until you actually walk into the room. Hundreds of strangers quietly sitting together like contestants waiting to be voted off an island. Some people looked terrified, others annoyed, and a few seemed oddly excited to participate in the legal version of “The Price is Right.” After days of observation from the audience section, the moment finally came — getting called into the actual jury box. Throne #3. Front and center. Suddenly this was no longer a spectator sport. The weirdest part of jury duty is how quickly normal people start feeling like suspects themselves. Every answer feels dangerous. Every question sounds like a trap. You start mentally reviewing your entire life while trying not to look too interested, too disinterested, too biased, too emotional, or too alive. It’s civic duty mixed with hostage negotiation energy. --- THE HOT SEAT The questioning process felt less like “getting to know the jury” and more like surviving an interrogation spotlight. Lawyers digging through opinions, experiences, biases, and life history while everyone pretends this is perfectly normal behavior for a Tuesday morning. The irony? Sitting there knowing a youthful misdemeanor history existed somewhere in the distant past while now being asked to help determine justice in a courtroom. America is strange. One chapter of your life can make you feel permanently judged, yet decades later the same system may ask you to represent fairness itself. That contradiction hits hard. Jury duty becomes less about the case and more about realizing people are never fully the worst thing they once did… even if they still expect to be treated that way. --- THE STAY OF EXECUTION Just when it looked like full jury service was about to become reality, the dismissal came suddenly. After being seated, questioned, processed, and mentally preparing for “The Green Mile” march into civic responsibility, it was over in minutes. Released back into society like a prisoner receiving a last-second pardon from the governor. The relief was immediate, but so was the frustration. Missing work, burning PTO, losing income, rearranging life, and getting compensated with what feels like arcade prize tickets exposes the biggest problem with jury duty — the financial punishment for doing your civic obligation. Everyone says jury service is important until it’s time to compensate people like it actually matters. --- SHOW CREDITS: Thank you to my co-host, Ken Madden of MaddK Studio Audio credits and Producer Jason Radosevich Horrible Designs Cast: Kate the Duchess of NJ and John Jamingo of theBoomer Bunker Aaron of I had to Say it Boomer Bob of the Boomer Bob Show Lorenzo from Misanthrope Radio 2.0 Cody the Beard as the Last Word.

NATIONAL DAY: NATIONAL TOURISM DAY BIRTHDAY: MRBEAST THIS DAY IN HISTORY: 1945 — GERMANY SURRENDERS TO THE ALLIES --- BELL BOOBS A topless climate protester made headlines after hanging from a church bell in dramatic fashion to draw attention to environmental concerns. The stunt immediately went viral online, with reactions ranging from support for the message to criticism that the spectacle overshadowed whatever point was being made in the first place. --- TED’S DEAD Media giant Ted Turner, founder of CNN and one of the most influential figures in modern broadcasting, has reportedly died at 87. Turner transformed cable television, launched the first 24-hour news network, and helped reshape how the world consumed breaking news, sports, and global events.. --- DIRT BIKE DUEL A Washington driver is facing multiple charges after allegedly chasing a boy riding a dirt bike on a sidewalk, eventually striking him with a vehicle. The bizarre confrontation escalated far beyond a neighborhood annoyance and turned into a dangerous situation now under criminal investigation. --- SHOW CREDITS: Thank you to my co-host, Ken Madden of MaddK Studio Audio credits and Producer Jason Radosevich Horrible Designs Cast: Kate the Duchess of NJ and John Jamingo of theBoomer Bunker Aaron of I had to Say it Boomer Bob of the Boomer Bob Show Lorenzo from Misanthrope Radio 2.0 Cody the Beard as the Last Word.

    Colokum Craft Coffee Use the Promo Code [WSMG15] For 15% of any purchase through June 2026 Boomer Bunker Dischord Become a Bunker Dweller Aaron Kickstarter Help Aaron with his Spicy Kickstarter 548 Trainwrecks and Turmoil NATIONAL DAY: NATIONAL BEVERAGE DAY BIRTHDAY: SIGMUND FREUD THIS DAY IN HISTORY: 1937 — THE HINDENBURG DISASTER --- SICK AND TIRED OF $15 BEERS The What: Americans are reportedly “pregaming” again like college students—not because they miss frat parties, but because going out has become ridiculously expensive. Between $15 beers, inflated cocktail prices, service fees, and tip screens asking for 30%, many adults are choosing to drink at home before heading out just to make a night affordable. The Take: Somewhere along the line, casual fun became luxury entertainment. People aren’t cheap—they’re tapped out. When two burgers and a couple drinks start pushing triple digits, the bar scene stops feeling social and starts feeling financially irresponsible. Suddenly that warm six-pack in the garage fridge looks like fiscal discipline. --- THE UNCOOPERATIVE The What: Minnesota Republican lawmakers failed in an effort to compel Rep. Ilhan Omar to testify regarding alleged ties to the massive Feeding Our Future fraud investigation. Critics claim Omar has avoided questions and skipped hearings tied to oversight efforts, while supporters argue the accusations are politically motivated and unsupported by direct evidence. The Take: Whether the accusations are true or not, refusing to engage only fuels suspicion. In politics, silence rarely calms controversy—it usually amplifies it. The public has reached the point where they assume everyone is hiding something, and every missed hearing or unanswered question just deepens that distrust. --- SHOW CREDITS: Thank you to my co-host, Ken Madden of MaddK Studio Audio credits and Producer Jason Radosevich Horrible Designs Cast: Kate the Duchess of NJ and John Jamingo of theBoomer Bunker Aaron of I had to Say it Boomer Bob of the Boomer Bob Show Lorenzo from Misanthrope Radio 2.0 Cody the Beard as the Last Word.
