BTL #273 - Lizard Blizzard - 1/10/18

This week on BTL...we're back after a long winter break, during which we had time to relax, then speed-read Fire and Fury and obsess over every last detail. We bring all that directly to your ears! Plus, 2012 is back! Bachmann, Romney, Kucinich (okay, wrong year) oh my! All that plus destructive men and their destructive buttons, Lizard Blizzards, and more!

BTL #262 - North Korea to Kevin Bacon [w/ Ritza Bloom] - 10/2/17

BTL #262 - North Korea to Kevin Bacon [w/ Ritza Bloom] - 10/2/17

This week on BTL, the lovely Ritza Bloom joins us in the studio to talk about Trump's tax proposal, Puerto Rico's giant huge horrible terrible no good very bad humanitarian crisis, the plane-chartering habits of Trump's top swamp-drainers, Alabama's secret fury, and so much more! Most importantly, we do some in depth thinking about two of America's most important icons: Dennis Rodman and Cowboy Jesus.

BTL #251 - Healthcare or a Giraffe - 7/3/17

This week on BTL, healthcare reform didn't get through before the holiday, but we're still worried about Mitch McConnell's evil plans to woo new GOPers to the cause. Trump, meanwhile, is so worried that he's changed his mind about his position yet again. On the Democratic side though, mind changes are a good thing! The writing on the wall is increasingly clear - Medicare for all is going to be a defining issue of 2020. All that plus Gorsuch being a problem already, a shake-up at Our Revolution, and Donald Trump's latest Twitter shenanigans.

BTL #236 - Say Trumpcare - 3/13/17

This week on BTL, everybody hates Trumpcare including all of the non-asshole community, most of the GOP, more of the white supremacist community than you'd guess, and most mammals and sea creatures. Jury is still out on reptiles - after all, Paul Ryan supports it.  Then, let us remind you of the many ways in which the monthly Jobs Report is never to be trusted, something that's especially true when the president tells you to only start trusting it now that he's in office.   And finally, ever dream of seeing the White House?  Apparently it's as easy as hopping a fence and...walking right in?  All this and more chaos awaits!

BTL #235 - Oh, THOSE Russians! - 3/6/17

This week on BTL, friend-of-the-podcast Carla Nordstrom joins us in the studio to talk through the week in Trump and tell us about her project at seedsofdemocracy.org!  We analyze Trump's joint session speech and brief window of glory, Jeff Sessions' ensuing scandal less then 12 hours later, Saturday's wire-tapping Twitter tour de force, and lots more.  We've also got updates on how Democrats are faring in local elections, how voting in general is faring in America, and how Oprah Winfrey is faring now that rich celebrities can be the president.  Another week of pure political insanity - don't miss a moment of it!  It'll (hopefully) never happen again!

BTL #232 - SEE YOU IN COURT [w/ Special Guests: Bad News Live’s Chuck Ludwig and Julianne Simitz] - 2/13/17

This week on BTL...the Bad News Live Crew is back!  Check out their next live show on Feb 18th at the Acme Theater in LA!  In the meantime, however, catch them reliving the million hours of news the Trump administration so thoughtfully produced in the last week.  First a foremost, let's #neverremember to #newforget a new category of fake terrorist victims - those (zero) lost in the Atlanta attacks.  Plus, we've got news on the Muslim Ban's court progress, updates on the senate confirmations (DeVos, Sessions, Price, oh my!), thoughts on why and how #shepersisted, whether or not Hillary Clinton has persisted, whether or not the Senate should persist, and more!  Also, anybody with leads for where a person can get some easy D should contact the White House.  

BTL #228 - Extra Rights - 1/16/17

BTL #228 - Extra Rights - 1/16/17

This week on BLT...will anybody actually be at the inauguration on Friday?  So far it looks like it's going to be Hillary Clinton and Code Pink.  Plus, Trump will save the ungrateful voters in John Lewis’ totally functioning district whether they want him to or not, and Ben Carson will stop all those pesky gay people from getting their extra rights.  What a relief!  Meanwhile, Cory Booker shoots himself in the 2020 foot,  the GOP signals their plans to take away your healthcare are just as ill conceived as you imagined,  and nobody does a press conference like Donald Trump and a stack of blank paper.  Bonus: we did it, America!  #GoldenShowers has now officially trended on Twitter.  Come for the news, stay for the...news!

This week on BTL, it's our last chance to reach you before we all VOTE!  VOTING!  VOTING IS SO FUN!  YOU SHOULD DO IT!  We're here with all the latest polling, updates on the senate, info on the props, suggestions about where and how to get involved in #GOTV efforts, and so so so so much excitement about voting!  So much!  Plus, did you hear that recent FBI emails nonsense is already over?  What a relief!  Another relief: Trump's Twitter privileges were revoked.  Who knew it was that easy?  Tune in for it all and whatever you do, figure out where you're going to park BEFORE you get to the polling place.  It's so much easier.
