Another Fine Mess

The guys sprinkle the latest egregious administration corruption throughout this week's look at the news. Big Bird is under attack again, US auto makers are on the ropes, and a little look at a low point for the great Jackie Robinson. And did we mention corruption?

Need distractions to make people forget that we're all in high-priced hot water? Haul an 86-year old retired guy before Congress. The lads also discuss more severe limitations on student loans, health care, free speech and especially your pocketbook. And of course, we're still stuck in an idiotic war. Oy!

The boys get a tad tangential this week and throw in talk about raccoons, Lyndon Johnson, and their radio days. Mostly though, it's the usual no-holds-barred informed analysis of the weeks politics and news. Done with some snark and a smile. 

It's always tough to distill a week's worth of administration corruption into 40 minutes, but the guys talk War with Iran, Defense budget, Lindsey Graham, ICE murders, the cowardly speaker, the housing bill, more election lies, and the gutting our the US Parks Service lands so republican cronies can line their already bulging pockets. Whew. If that's not enough, what about ancient scarlet macaws on the high deserts of New Mexico?

The boys tackle lots of news, spending plenty of time on the U.S. World Cup disruption, but not neglecting the NATO meeting, the restarted war, Graham Platner, another ICE murder, and the gutting of America's greatest treasures - our National Parks. If that's not enough, Mike shares the history of canned food and a bit of an oversight.

The gents excoriate the much-less-than-Supreme Court, but Mike may piss off some fellow libs in the process. It's more amateur hour at the war & peace table, Roger takes a New York candidate to task, and Mike finds one post-presidential job he really likes.

Roger & Mike covered a lot this week. Republicans trying to ban IVF, Republicans telling their own Muslim members to leave the country, a grocery store racist who made $125k, some 16th century Austrian history, and blue paint bubbling to the green surface. Despite the algae, this episode of AFM is good, (mostly) clean political fun.

Do we have a peace deal even if the terms are not disclosed and each side is giving a different story? Roger and Mike will wait until the tree falls in forest to find out. Meanwhile, there is some heartwarming news related to the World Cup and the same old BS from the White House over election ballots. And Mike's history fact is all about cussing parrots.

First off, don't expect rhyming titles moving forward, but the guys talk Big Bend wall, Middle East blunders, total lack of foresight and much more. The history fact has to do with reading the little bumps on your noggin.

The guys give you the lowdown on the shutdown of science by the administration, and Mike says both sides can pat themselves on the back for the lowest murder rate in 100 years. Meanwhile, there is no morality in site on Pennsylvania Avenue. But there were plenty of mobility-impaired bullfrogs in New Orleans in the 1930s.
