Mehr I'm Not Allowed To Watch The News

I'm not allowed to watch the news. There are many reasons.Ok. There's one reason. And I bet many of you feel the same.The political system of the United States of America in the 21st century is a lot like Thanksgiving Day at my mother's house--dysfunctional, expensive, and makes you a little nauseous.It will end, but it’s not going to end well. When the news is on I tend to rant. It scares the dogs. So my wife said I'm not allowed to watch the news anymore. The dogs and I started this podcast, where I can rant all I want.That'll teach her.https://www.patreon.com/notallowedtowatchthenews Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 12 - The 2024 Election and America's Purpose Cover

12 - The 2024 Election and America's Purpose

It’s 2025 and we’ve had another presidential election. One third of the country is in despair about it, a third is uncomfortably wondering what genie they let out of the bottle, another third is blindly, blissfully joyful, and I’m still not allowed to watch the news. The dogs, in case you’re wondering, are fine with it. All pets are Communists. They provide no output other than unconditional love and disgusting things I have to bag up and throw away. They live free off the state (which in this case is me and Mrs. I’m Not Allowed to Watch The News) and are unaffected by distant regime change. Since we’re not dogs, it’s time to face some unpleasant truths about America and start focusing on what’s next instead of what happened. It’s actually the American Way, if you think about it. We get our heads out of our asses, quit our bitching, and figure out the best way to serve the cause of the United States of America on this episode of I’m Not Allowed to Watch the News.

Episode 09 - Ben Franklin Bets On America Cover

09 - Ben Franklin Bets On America

America’s wisest old man was writing his last will and testament.  Benjamin Franklin had plenty of people to leave his fortune to – his son William Franklin, former royal governor of New Jersey. His grandson, Temple Franklin, who had been Ben’s secretary during the negotiations with France that got the colonies some much-needed assistance with that whole “give the British a whuppin’” thing. Sally Bache, his daughter. Benjamin Bache, Sally’s son. Or even his sister Jane Franklin. Everyone got a little something, but there were a couple of surprise bequests - to the two cities he called home - Boston and Philadelphia. America's most middle class Founding Father made a two hundred-year bet. And he won. Can we do the same? ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Episode 08 - The Jury Congress Cover

08 - The Jury Congress

I served on a jury once, and if that makes you doubt both the stability and effectiveness of the American justice system, well, just imagine how I felt when I got the summons. But I have to say the experience went pretty well, and justice (I think) was served by twelve random people and two alternates who definitely jumped in the jury pool with preconceived notions about the case. Justice was most definitely not served by Phil from the hardware store, but I’ll get to him soon enough. The relevant point for today’s episode is that the whole experience gave me a great idea for a way to change the way America chooses its representatives, crafts legislation, and makes laws. The dogs and I once again raise America’s proverbial hood and tinker with the metaphorical engine that is our governing document on this episode of I’m Not Allowed To Watch The News.
