episode Weekend at Biden's artwork
Weekend at Biden's

The Homespun Yak returns this week to discuss the incredibly smooth and extraordinarily peaceful final exit of American forces and civilians from Afghanistan. The guys fondly reminisce on the past 20 years of their lives and talk of the good times - back when America responded to acts of terrorism by violently overthrowing the governments of foreign nations, drone striking villages to oblivion and forcibly spreading the ideals of democracy to those living in hunter gatherer societies. Are the good times truly over for good? America's oldest living man (Joe Biden) seems to think so... Not to worry folks, we discuss some happy topics along the way in this episode as well. These subjects include but are not limited to: * Cristiano Ronaldo's triumphant return to Manchester United. The prodigal son hath returned! * Nic's Top 3 (ish) comedians and some that he feels have tremendously fallen off from their glory days. * Tik Tok is the new American dream! If you hate how rich and famous Tik Tokers are then you are just jelly. * Ben Shapiro vs Pod Save America We thank you kindly for tuning in!

episode Afghanistan and Messi Moves artwork
Afghanistan and Messi Moves

Oh hi there, it's been a few weeks - we've been busy improving the podcast in absolutely no way. We've actually been traveling and making personal moves, but we're back (this week we can promise, at least). In this episode, we catch up with Kyle before ranting a bit on the new CoVID policies (when will this end? WHEN?), before taking a bit more of a serious turn into the Afghanistan situation and how it was handled. Finally, we discuss sports - Messi moving to PSG, NBA, NFL, and the usual finishing thoughts on sports. Hit us up on Instagram (@homespunyak). Enjoy, or don't.

episode We Don't Much Care for The Olympics or ESPN artwork
We Don't Much Care for The Olympics or ESPN

In this recent episode of the HSY, the broskis discuss the dramatic ending to the Euro Cup Final and the different reactions across the globe. Nic in particular was very distraught by the result LOL. The guys then turn towards the next major sporting event around the corner that will inevitably capture the eyes of a global audience- The Tokyo Olympics. The absurdity of banning Sha'Carri Richardson for a positive THC test is compared to the Olympics allowing a Trans Woman to compete with Biological Women in the weightlifting competition. The Olympics would rather secure sponsorships through virtue signaling than focus on the health/safety and financial well-being of it's athletes... who at the end of the day bring in all of the global viewership! Nic and Kyle are making a stand and will be #boycotting the Olympics. Try to have a successful Olympics now without the backing of the Homespun Yak! We thank you for backing us and listening!

episode Euro Cup Reactions (France, Denmark, England, and More), and the Women's National Team "LFG" artwork
Euro Cup Reactions (France, Denmark, England, and More), and the Women's National Team "LFG"

In this episode, the guys spend a good amount of time discussing the recent loss by France to Switzerland, as well as the Spanish victory over Croatia, along with many other games as Kyle makes predictions on the future of the tournament. There's maybe 2 minutes of NBA talk before Nic describes his initial thoughts on the new documentary "LFG" describing women's struggle for equal pay on the National Soccer Team, before they both discuss the challenges ahead of a just fight therein.

episode Never Underestimate the Impact of Testosterone artwork
Never Underestimate the Impact of Testosterone

Of course the guys kick things off with a short recap of how the first round of the Euros are playing out. Kyle describes how he felt seeing Christian Eriksen collapse on the field from cardiac arrest in Denmark's match against Finland and the guys briefly discuss whether or not ESPN should have had cameras on the moment as it transpired. Finally, to round out the sports segment, they take a look at where things stands in regards to the NBA playoffs and how the Brooklyn Nets went from clear cut favorites to potentially packing their bags early due to star power injuries. Nic then mentions he is taking a break from caffeine intake for at least a week in order to re-calibrate his tolerance levels. In order to be at a normal functioning level, he would have to down a pot of coffee and 4 Bang energy drinks all before noon. We are all hoping his body can handle a reduction, but we are realists... Towards the end of the show, the guys discuss a recent JRE Podcast episode with Harvard Prof Carole Hooven. She is an evolutionary biologist who has studied testosterone's impact on human behavior throughout history and is providing some very intriguing insight into it's effects on trans men who decide to undergo hormone therapy. She also discusses how this subject has divided opinions in modern society and how difficult the teaching experience is for her in a setting where the sensitive students want to dictate how the course is taught based on their emotional feelings on the matter.
