It’s that time again! Our CA Prop Guide is here! It covers all seven state-wide props with our usual mix of panache and…mild irritation. Feel free to share this guide far and wide because, look, nobody has time to research all the motherf*ing props this state throws at us.

Meet the (Third Party) Candidates: Jill Stein

Green party candidate for president Jill Stein.  Democrats believe she’s the Yoko Ono of the presidential race.  Donald Trump believes she’s...yet another faceless disgusting woman who probably has periods.  Both major parties would like you to think she’s some sort of dreadlock-y hippie that isn’t worth your time.  If corporate shills and/or flat out insane people aren’t your cup of tea, join us as we meet our first of the two major third party candidates and dive a little deeper into this thing called democracy!

BTL #189 - George's Little Brother - 2/22/16

This week on the podcast, Carla Nordstrom joins us for our coverage of the Nevada Caucus results, the fully bonkers South Carolina GOP primary results, a finally tally of what money can't buy you care of a now exclamation point-less Jeb, and Donald Trump's latest sparring partner, Pope Francis.  Naturally we didn't forget to bring you this week's crazy Scalia conspiracy theories and make sure to listen to Carla's editorial on young voters and the Democratic Party!  Yet another can't-miss week and more are on the way!

BTL #184 - #HillaryPillory, The Movement - 1/18/16

Join us this week on BTL as we discuss where our medium tolerance of the idea of maybe voting for Hillary Clinton in the general met it's natural end. Misrepresenting corporate ties was one (bad) thing, but misrepresenting single-payer healthcare and Bernie Sander's (superior) health platform is where we draw the line. We're legit not having her in any way shape or form! Come for the rage, stay for our rundowns of the rest of this action-packed week: Tuesday's State of the Union, Thursday's GOP Debate, Sunday's Dem Debate, and the latest on Iran followed by our coverage of the infuriating/criminal Flint, MI water situation.  The episode is long but worth it!

BTL # 180 - Hungry Hungry Hippos - 12/14/15

This week on BTL...195 Countries are willing to take a chance on believing in climate change, which is a far better percentage than in our own Congress.  Womp womp.  And Ted Cruz is surging in Iowa while continuing to be in an irrelevant kind second place nationally.  Life/New Hampshire can work in mysterious ways.  Plus, Trump once again won the internet by losing at reasonable thought, but all this might be adding up to the most deliciously contentious GOP convention in recent history.  We literally CANNOT WAIT.  BRING ON THE DELEGATE THEFT!  Unfortunately, regardless of what happens next the rent will remain too damn high because Jimmy McMillan is sick of wasting his time trying to solve this for us ungrateful fools who never elected him.  Goodbye to all that needed discussion about rent and unneeded discussion about McMillan's his facial hair.  We'll miss you both!  All this and tons more!  What a week!

BTL #172 - Human DNA Found at Politicon - 10/12/15

This week on the podcast, so many names we haven't visited with in a while: Paul Ryan, Michele Bachmann, and more!  Plus, Hillary Clinton can't help but destroy everything she loves, and her latest victim is her beloved TPP.  Oh, and McCarthy is OUT so the Speaker of the House election is now anybody's (or possibly nobody's) game.  Who will it be?  You?  Us?  Nancy Pelosi?  Tune in to hear our thoughts and let us know yours on Twitter!
