Today, I'm talking (perhaps gushing) about one of the most important and influential metal albums of the early 2000s: System of a Down’s "Toxicity", released on September 4, 2001.

The main image used for this episode is of Ingrid Olderock, a Chilean-German agent known as "The Dog Lady"., or "Woman of the Dogs," who trained dogs to sexually attack prisoners. This is something Meghan McCain claimed is impossible; "You cannot train a dog to do anything like that," she said. Why the denial? Why the lack of research on her part? Well, because she is a right-wing ideologue, first of all, and that ALWAYS requires omitting key facts from one's general worldview. But here are the facts regarding the disturbing practice of using dogs as instruments of state-sanctioned torture, and why we should not doubt such crimes are possible, even from countries we are supposedly "allies" with, or even from ourselves.

Anarchism is often misunderstood as a rigid ideology devoted simply to chaos or the rejection of all forms of organization. In reality, anarchism is better understood as a method of analyzing power and human relationships rather than a fixed doctrine demanding strict adherence to a universal blueprint. It is grounded in principles rather than dogma, emphasizing freedom, voluntary cooperation, and resistance to systems that place some people in positions of domination over others.At its foundation, anarchism challenges coercive hierarchy wherever it appears: in governments, economic systems, workplaces, patriarchal structures, or social institutions in general. The central question is not merely who possesses power, but why hierarchical power exists at all.So, how realistic is the anarchic framework? Also, can variations of "anarchic" ideas be approximated in present-day society? It turns out that, yes, they can. Listen for more details...

I finally did it: I recorded a little episode about a smut film star. Details are scarce, so what can I tell you about Iggy Amore? Listen and find out as I riff on what I discovered! Recoil in horror as a lose my innocence discussing the immoral world of "adult content"!

Today we're revisiting one of the most recognizable horror sequels of the late 1990s, "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer." It's a bit of a review, but also a simple reminder that this movie exists.

What is our toddler-brained President up to now regarding the Kennedy Center? Throwing one of the ultimate man-baby tantrums this country has ever seen!

What would a silly-billy anarchic critique of the 2026 TSA shutdown look like?

'Barracuda,' 'Jessica,' 'Thunderstruck,' 'Day Tripper,' 'Beat It,' 'Stairway to Heaven'Which of those 6 riffs is the best, most powerful, most iconic riff?

Thoughts on allegations of physical assault and inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace. Remember when #MeToo was seemingly the biggest trend in the world?

I am changing my approach to standup comedy...at least significantly. It especially hit me after trying to memorize elements of my "Roast of Robert Frost." If I have to memorize it, how funny is it? How authentic is it? It might not be the best style and approach.
