Summary

"A sane person to an insane society must appear insane." ― Kurt Vonnegut Jr.

Not Mad as in Angry, Mad as in Insane.

And in an insane world, the sane are simply Mad. I am The Mad Centrist.

You can be too!

The Mad Centrist podcast is a middle ground, pragmatic, politically polite, and irreverently independent show. Pulling the rug out from beneath Democrats and Republicans alike, while respecting democrats and republican citizens (the distinction between Party and people is critical!). Amusing anecdotes of the crazy world we find ourselves in, how to maybe get along better, and pull the world back towards sanity, and do so while having some fun!

  • Episode 93: Pardons, Inc.
    7 Nov 2026

    The corruption of this administration is staggering. One aspect of it flies under the radar - or at least it did, until it was exposed by House Committee on the Judiciary.

    Their article, Pardons, Inc., lays the truth bare: The Corruption in Chief is selling pardons to the rich and infamous. So long as you can pay, and you believe the law is a farce and Trump is amazing - or can convince the head Felon you believe - you too can prove that crime pays.

    SHOW NOTES:

    Only one thing, the Pardons, Inc. document. Quite the read if you are a fan of true crime stories.

    What have we done, letting this person be President?

    His legacy is dishonesty, corruption, chaos, ego, and disrespect of women.

    We let out kids, our nation, and the world down because we didn't take the power of our vote seriously. It is time to change that.

    Listen to hear my apology for Trump's legacy.

    Show Notes:

    Link to the Hurrican Katrina damage estimates

    The Pakistan military actions in the Gulf piece.

    Nuclear weapons estimate for Pakistan.

    Piece on the Access Hollywood scandal.

    The many Trump accusers from inappropriate touching to rape.
