  • Insane COVID Vaccine Claims
    Oct 9 2021
    New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu called for a state lawmaker who’s repeatedly pushed COVID-19 misinformation to be stripped from his leadership position after he blasted out an email to colleagues suggesting that the coronavirus vaccine contains a “living organism with tentacles” and darkens the eyes of newborns. It’s hard for me to fathom that so many of the leaders of our nation actually believe that the COVID-19 vaccine contains mind-controlling nanobots, makes you magnetic, causes people to become zombies, contains tentacle-creatures, makes babies transhuman or any of the other non-proven crap that’s floating around on the internet. I can believe that most of the population believes this stuff because so many of us are complete idiots and don’t know how to do proper research. But our leaders? They’re supposed to be among the best of us. They’re supposed to be smarter than what they’re proving to be.

  • Why You Should Get Vaccinated
    Sep 11 2021
    You really should get a COVID-19 vaccine, regardless of your feelings about it. Its safe, its as effective as it can be right now, and if you do happen to get a breakthrough case, the symptoms will be less and give you the best fighting chance at not dying! Plus, it’s really an issue of being a decent human being. This is a GLOBAL PANDEMIC. Its affecting the entire population of the world. As responsible adults, no, as responsible human beings, we should all do our part in trying to stop this deadly virus from spreading so it stops killing and we can go to whatever the new normal is going to be.

  • COVID Vaccine Wars
    Aug 14 2021
    The apparantly never-ending war against getting vaccinated for COVID-19 is still raging on. Those who continually spread misinformation and lies about the vaccine are relentless in their unfounded battle. Rediculous claim after rediculous claim is easily disproven whenever you look at the real facts about the vaccine. But facts, however, doesn't concern the anti-vaxxers. Facts are nothing more than a minor inconvience to them.

  • The Gun Violence Epidemic
    Jul 10 2021
    Mass shootings jumped nearly 50% in 2020, due in large part to a pandemic year rife with crippling unemployment, violent protests and idle youth. With COVID-19 cases falling and vaccines rolling out, some criminologists hope a rebounding economy and reopened schools will drive down those numbers in 2021. The new year, however, has brought a level of violence and death that Americans have become all too familiar with.

  • Hot Car 2021
    Jul 10 2021
    Summer is officially upon us and the Pacific Northwest is already seeing record-high temperatures. And with that comes the tragedy of parents leaving their forgotten children inside sweltering hot cars for hours on end, where they die agonizing deaths. I have made it a tradition on this podcast to help bring about awareness to this tragic trend by reporting on it every summer. This year is no exception. Even though this is a completely avoidable tragedy that causes lifelong emotional trauma for those involved, there is good news. Every year since the record for deaths was set at 54 in 2018, the numbers have been steadily declining. In 2019, there were 53 deaths. In 2020, only 26 (a huge drop), and so far for 2021, there have been a total of 7, but we will definitely see that number rise. We are, after all, only less than one month into the Summer season.

  • Violent Crime is on the Rise
    Apr 10 2021
    Back in 2017, then Attorney General Jeff Sessions warned us that the United States was experiencing a surge in violent crime that deserved a forceful response. He called for a restoration of law and order. He was ridiculed for this by a lot of the same liberal newspapers that today have abetted and enabled a shocking rise in violent crime. But it turns out that Sessions was right. New crime data from the FBI proves the point he was making. Violent crime has surged, and in fact, Sessions probably had no idea how bad things were going to get.
