As a Pennsylvania voter, I’m so pissed about Fetterman because I voted for him. I knew he was trash because he held a gun on an unarmed black man. That never sat well with me but he was running against Dr Oz who I thought was way worse because he was endorsed by Trump. So am I surprised he’s trash? Not really but I’m pissed that there were no better options.
I’ve been to a museum where a klan robe was on display and it made me a little uncomfortable but I think it was supposed to. It served as a reminder of what evil used to look like and that klan robe that was found should be in a museum. Unfortunately today, the hoods are off and the klan wears police badges and serve in congress and are judges.
How’d all y’all know I carried a typewriter to write the first drafts of my comments? I use the Smith-Corona Series-5 because it is amongst the quietest of typewriters, and they are fairly portable as far as 1950s era typewriters go…
Yes, the sound was off for me too after the new laptop so thank you to the listener who made you aware! Back to normal on my end.
More importantly, is Karen taking Hasan Minhaj’s approach to comedy these days? I could’ve sworn she started the Hornets story saying SHE was helping to take the picture of the family. And then Rod came in and stepped all over the bit with his correction, LOL!!
I’m used to the singing along with the “Cheap Caribbean Vacations…get more sand for your dollar” commercial that plays on the podcast, but this week there’s been a lot of the TLC PrEP ad, and given the recent news, I’m wondering if only TBoz actually participated because Chilli ain’t supporting HIV advocacy in 2026.
Wait, did Chilli go conservative after Confessions? Is this all Usher’s fault?
Like the energy of the white lady at that march at lot.
This would be my answer more or less, I would maybe say, I’d rather move to mars.
The old white man at the game should listen to sad white boy music to deal with his life. I suggest “ the times are changing “ by bob dylan.
By the way, I see here right wing bots at work. Tell white people who don’t like what’s going on to stay at home because the marches are too white. So black people don’t go, and white people don’t go. Aka march has no participants and it looks af it people like the situation. Done.
You know what’s fascinating, in a letter addressed to the DNC to “get in line” two big unions in Maine said that they had endorsed Nazi guy Platner because he reminded them of working class people just like Fetterman. I donated to the governor immediately I read their threat to support Susan Collins (in the general if Nazi guy doesn’t win the primaries). It was before their boy attacked Iran (I know that they didn’t support Kamala in 2024). So we’ll see if they’ll keep that energy should their Nazi lose. Why do we need another Fetterman? As they say in Tennessee or somewhere in Texas, fool me once…
Y’all had me on an emotional roller coaster this episode. The pitiful old man at the game had me laughing but feeling bad at the same time, dumb azz Nick and Amber had me me suckin my teeth with a straight face-I so wish dumb beeyatches would just stfu. That 19 yr old on the way to pick up his mom and getting shot had my heart in my stomach. Im not going recap the whole darn episode, but Rod had me cracking up even while being mad at folk, and the standout…Banana Republican!! Thanks for the laughs, always. You guys are helping me keep my sanity these days. Welp, time for me to file for unemployment – keep me in your prayers, please. I appreciate you both!
Lmao the banana republic comment from Karen had me on the FLOOR
I mean, the term Banana Republic comes from small nations where banana plantation owners had basically bought the government. It’s the kind of outright corruption that the Republicans have represented for more than half a century. So, she wasn’t that far off about the connection between Banana Republics and Republicans…
Sigh. Every time you mention Fetterman I cringe a little bit. He’s from Pittsburgh, where I’ve live. Over the years I have ridden on all kinds of bike trails here and every once in a while I would see Fetterman. Before I even knew who he was, I would think to myself, “Oh wow. A sasquatch in the wild!” and then I found out he was running for office and said to myself “Let’s vote for this gentle giant!” without knowing anything about him. I fucked around, and we found out. You’re right that it’s an embarrassment.
