On this week's BTL, we talked voting, third parties, Libertarians, Ralph Nader, and more with GREEN PARTY PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE JILL STEIN! Check out our chat with her, some dispatches from her Pershing Square rally, and of course all the bafoonery around the second presidential debate, Donald Trump pussy-grabbing, Hillary Clinton wall street speeches, and everything else that happened in this absurdly packed week!
BTL #210 - Democratic Dancing - 8/1/16
This week on the podcast... Don't you want to have as much fun as Bill Clinton is having in this picture? Then listen to us discuss the DNC and all that transpired behind the scenes on this week's podcast! Plus, Trump's worst media week ever, and some nifty campaigning ideas for the progressives among us!
BTL #209 - Republican Dancing - 7/25/16
This week on BTL, we do our best to make up for our one-week absence! We try our hand at reporting breaking news, plus we've got a look ahead at the DNC and a look behind at the (terrifying, disorganized, slapstick-ridden) RNC. All that plus a discussion on the meaning of your vote and when voter outreach works and doesn't, plus an exciting (read: horrible) update on the week in racism. And jokes. We've got jokes too!
BTL #208 - Trump/Zootopia 2016 - 7/12/16
BTL #207 - Politicon 2016 - 6/27/16
BTL #206 - Run For Office - 6/20/16
This week on BTL, we know it's hot and hard to focus on anything but popsicles and swimming pools, but we'd love some answers regarding what our actual election results were here! 1.5 million ballots still uncounted? Let's fix that! Then our two great loves, gun control and filibusters, collided last week for an epic democratic-led 15 hour gun control filibuster that warmed our hearts and lifted our spirits but possibly wont result in any actual change. And those are only two of the zillions of things we covered this week. We'd think of more to tease but it's too hot. Just listen. We promise it'll be fun.
BTL #205 - Kiss the Gold-Plated Ring - 6/13/16
This week on BTL...we've had enough with the damn shootings. When do we get to talk about gun control again? Page us when you're ready, America. Plus, our thoughts on this weekend's eventful Pride, the California primary results, Donald Trump's latest fundraising tactics, Hillary Clinton's victory lap, and more! And most importantly (aside from, well, the actual news...) BILDERBERG IS BACK and more Illuminati-ish than ever! Find out which highly international conspiracy plans are on the agenda this year!
BTL #204 - Drag Queen Bingo - 6/6/16
This week on BTL, it's our last podcast before the big day! Californians will finally (FINALLY) get to weigh in on this year's presidential picks and we can't wait! Brent, in fact, couldn't wait so much that he drove over an hour on Sunday morning to vote early, meeting up with with unknowing friend-of-the-podcast Marcia Gay Harden in the process. No word yet on who she voted for, but Brent made some bold decisions and in honor of his sacrifice we've got a good rundown of your California Senate primary choices...all 34 of them. There's plenty more too, including Hillary Clinton's foreign policy speech, Trump's banner week of racism (even for him!), Paul Ryan's panic endorsing, and so much more!
