This last week NYC mayor (or dictator) Bill de Blasio announced updates to the already insane mandates that have been put in place. Not only is he forcing all private businesses to be fully vaccinated, he has now decided that children as young as 5 years old are no longer allowed to participate in society without proof of vaccination. Unvaccinated children in NYC are now second-class citizens. In this episode I play the audio of de Blasio's announcement while adding some flavorful commentary.

What better topic for the first official episode than the controversial trial of Kyle Rittenhouse! Even despite the days worth of publicly available footage of the entire trial, people are still repeating talking points and lies that were thoroughly debunked in the courtroom. Using a year old Facebook post that has been resurfacing the last couple of days, I go through a breakdown some of the worst of these false claims.

This is a 20 minute introduction I made about a month ago but kept neglecting to get it edited, uploaded, and ultimately distributed. It's not quite the introduction I would like but I've already fallen behind on getting the podcast up and running so I figured it was good enough. Also, in the same spirit of urgency, I've decided that I wouldn't make any fancy intro or outro for this introduction episode because that would just take up even more time. So, I hope you enjoy this quick and dirty introduction!
