Who Framed Roger Rabbit? — Look InThe Mirror!

Part 2 America 250: A new Beginning or the Beginning of the End

This episode unpacks a leaked 911 call about Mitch McConnell’s medical emergency, examines concerns about aging leadership and President Trump’s health, and critiques the lackluster 250th anniversary events. Hosts discuss the rise of the DSA, political tribalism, fears of domestic unrest and global conflict, and whether America can recover from its current political and cultural crises.

Part 1 America 250: A New Beginning or the Beginning of the End

Steve travels to Washington, D.C. with press passes for the 250th celebration and finds a disappointing, hastily built event: mismanaged press credentials, empty state booths, a tiny Ferris wheel, and a plastic cow in the Michigan exhibit. Between hauling furniture, Colton getting unexpectedly drunk, and exploring the Adams Morgan’s food and mojito scene, they reflect on the day’s absurdities and later discuss Spielberg’s new movie Disclosure and what modern “disclosure” might mean. Part personal road trip story and part cultural critique, the episode blends comedy, frustration, and food-and-drink highlights from an underwhelming national event.

Open Mic Confessions: From DC Comedy Nights to Band Drafts

Hosts trade stories about a DC open-mic night and compare early stand-up and musician grind, from basement gigs to bringer shows. They build fantasy “draft” lineups, assembling dream bands with legends like Chris Cornell, Eddie Van Halen, Geddy Lee, Neil Peart and others while debating roles and stagecraft. The conversation moves through horror and fantasy casting ideas (including a Dragonlance recast), indie music picks, and a comedy festival lineup, blending personal anecdotes, music history and pop-culture opinions in a loose, wide-ranging episode.

When Trump Lets Everyone Down: The Many Broken Promises

Hosts explore how Trump’s repeated promises have disappointed multiple factions of his base — from farmers and donors to staunch MAGA supporters — touching on tariffs, immigration, foreign policy, and the controversies around the Epstein files. The conversation also covers geopolitical fallout (Israel and Iran), media and political insider dynamics, and a broader plea to move beyond partisan tribes toward addressing the divide between the owning class and the working class.

Trumps Rough Birthday Week

This episode breaks down a chaotic week in Washington: parts of the White House in disrepair, the Kennedy Center name removal, and explosive reporting on the Epstein files and the Situation Room. We also cover Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO making him a trillionaire, local and national political shifts including the host’s DSA membership, the rise of trad-wife rhetoric and its backlash, plus a satirical PNN segment to cap off the show.
