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 #373 - Things Could Always Be Worse - 10/26/20

Sorry for the terrifying thumbnail image, but we wanted to be 100% certain you Mitch McConnell’s hands. Also, it’s almost Halloween so it just felt right. Anyway, we’ll be talking about ol’ Undead Mitch (our terrible Trump-style nickname that doesn’t rhyme or have alliteration) along with the final debate, the latest early vote totals, the latest covid numbers, and the latest INSANE conspiracy theories that Trump and Fox News have cooked up. You won’t want to miss our LAST PODCAST BEFORE THE ELECTION. GO VOTE, PEOPLE!!

BTL #370 - VIP Superspreader Event (w/Special Guest Grant Sloss) -

GUYS! Remember when we thought this week’s podcast would be all about Trump’s taxes and Tuesday’s first presidential debate? Well, both of those events ended up being about 17 news cycles ago after all of this insane White House Covid drama. Thankfully, one of our favorite guests Grant Sloss joins us to break it all down. You definitely don’t want to miss it!

BTL #369 - Read the Room - 9/28/20

Well, 2020 rages on…the same week we lay RBG to rest, we get a new SCOTUS nominee who belongs to a Catholic cult. So…that’s that. Now, will democrats really have the balls to go full kabuki theater to block the nomination? We’ll cover it all, as well as the tragically inadequate charges brought against one of the officers in the Breonna Taylor murder, the upcoming presidential debate, the new pared down Covid-19 relief bill, and we’ll fill you in on the latest phrase sweeping the campaign trail…”THE LID”!

BTL #368 - Worst Case Scenario - 9/21/20

Guys - we need everyone to stop saying things like, “jeez, how can 2020 possibly get any worse?”, because the universe keeps answering. This week the answer was the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, followed shortly by an earthquake for good measure. Plus, we had dueling presidential town halls, some welcome Biden zingers, and a long awaited update on all the dead wildlife Senator Chuck Grassley has left in his wake.

Another week, and another batch of exciting primaries. Seriously, what’s going on in Texas?! Also, what’s going on at HRC, because they’ve been Endorsing Susan Collins for decades you guys. Unacceptable. Plus, we’ve got a coronavirus update, a recap of the Kanye campaign event, and further proof we’re living in a fascist state.

It’s the one where Brent finally gets on Lila’s radicalization level! It took awhile, friends, but we’re finally here! This week we combine radical forces to share our thoughts on the HEROES Act, The Biden/Sanders task forces, Dems losing elections and Joe Biden’s general ineptitude. Oh and don’t worry, we’ll also make space force jokes as well.
