We here at Brain Trust Live are now officially voters in the 2020 election! Yep, we’re 2 of the 22 million people who have already cast ballots. This means we are also 2 people who just REALLY wish we could disconnect from reality until this election is over. But because we’re such caring people, we’ve read all the news anyway just so we can rant about it to you! We’ve got it all - dueling town halls, SCOTUS hearings, the latest Trump conspiracy theories, and so much more!
BTL #371 - The Senate Rundown (w/Guest Carla Nordstrom) - 10/12/20
One of our favorite guests and resident Senate expert, Carla Nordstrom, joins us to discuss ALL (yes, ALL) of the senate races in 2020. We guarantee that you haven’t heard a discussion this in-depth about the entire slate of races. Plus, we’ll discuss the VP debate, more Trump super-spreader events, and the plot to kidnap a sitting governor. Don’t miss it!
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.
BTL #359 - Manhattan, Texas - 6/20/20
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.
BTL #358 - Stock Market Sacrifice - 7/13/20
This week on BTL…a uniquely American discussion about why you CAN’T SEND KIDS TO SCHOOL DURING A PANDEMIC. Seriously guys, we shouldn’t need to tell you, but here we are. And speaking of that pesky pandemic, you guessed it, it’s even worse than it was just last week. We’ve got all this, plus election results, fundraising numbers, and all the juicy details from Mary Trump’s tell all!
BTL #355 - The Emptysburg Address - 6/22/20
Trump delivers a campaign rally with all the classic insanity, but no…people. Plus, the ‘stache strikes back! We’ll tell you all the John Bolton book highlights so you don’t have to pay for it (seriously people, do not buy this book). Plus we’ve got all the latest on coronavirus, upcoming primaries and wild SCOTUS rulings!
