On this one we cover the absolutely hysterical behavior of legacy mainstream media in this current election cycle. Plus, Trump picks up a couple extra jobs. McDonald's Trump vs Garbageman Trump: which action figure would you buy? Which one is more iconic? And finally, we take a look at the Department of Environmental Conservation's brutal takedown of Peanut the Squirrel and Fred the Racoon.

Take a seat by the fire, grab a cup of cocoa and join me at my Mountain Cabin.

Trump comes back to the place he was shot at for another rally but somehow Kamala Harris is the one under fire on 60 Minutes. We also dive into the FEMA funding controversy after Hurricane Helene (and before Milton) and worry about the Israel-Iran conflict. So, clearly, all cheerful and breezy topics. Probably made this one too serious and topic dense but I guess it's the Campaign Trail Special now if that's your kinda thing.

However, we wrap up with relationship advice in our Post Modern Dear Abby segment, where we tackle a couple of Reddit threads on escorts and polycules for a bit of levity. Pull up a chair, grab your favorite drink and settle in.

We start with a look at Zelenskyy’s rollercoaster state visit to the USA and the war in Ukraine. Is war with Iran also on the horizon? The FBI seems keen. Plus, the shocking new stats about illegal immigration, including thousands of convicted criminals, which turn out to be a massive red herring. The actual numbers we should be looking at are actually MUCH WORSE and publicly available. Stick around for that segment, it's a doozy!

Next, we dive into the scandalous world of RFK Jr. and journalist Olivia Nuzzi, because I heard even hand holding was involved. Disgusting! Ozempic claims yet another victim of heft: WeightWatchers. Also, Kamala Harris finally makes her long-awaited border visit and it's a dud. Why did JD Vance get barred from a Pennsylvania restaurant?

Also, John Kerry and Bill Gates bemoan the First Amendment and join the War on Free Speech at the World Economic Forum.

Lastly, our brand-new segment, Post Modern Dear Abby, where I tackle some relationship dilemmas from the wilds of Reddit. Grab a drink and settle in by the fire—this episode’s packed!

This one starts with a fastidious slog through the topic of illegal immigration because all the recent Springfield malarkey has me riled up. Then we get a general overview of the campaign and media slop. It's not a riot but if you bear with me the back part of the episode is pretty fun. RFK finally gets a proper big boy scandal that doesn't involve dead fauna, Ozempic is bringing about the fatocaust for Body Positivity, there's also a very polite pervert and a shady science study. Grab a cup, settle in, and join me for a fireside chat.
