A show about what is happening around us, or things we find fascinating at the moment. We may discuss politics, or possibly a quack doctor who implanted goat testicles in people, promising a cure for everything. Topics can be current, or historical, and often one thing leads to another.

Mark and Kevin have not recorded, or at least published, any podcast episode of any kind, in a long time. They are rusty. They ramble from Sandy Irvine's foot found on Everest, to nacho cheese machines, the Snurfer, David Lee Roth in Spanish, and more.

Mark and Kevin have been busy, because of kids, but finally get back to recording another episode. This one starts with a rant about gift cars, and why they are "the worst". Things quickly spiral, as it often does with these two. The episode covers: Gift cards Corporate takeover of everything The loss of expertise in retail Tucker Carlson in Russia Private equity buying up, and ruining, healthcare Retirement isn't going to happen for many Americans Our proposal for a new crypto currency, called Bezos Yacht Coin (BYC), pegged to the value of a Jeff Bezos Yacht, currently $500M.

The Israel-Hamas conflict has begun, and countless lives lost. Mark and Kevin discuss it a bit, before segueing into the inability of politicians to compromise, and the consequences for everyone else. Taylor Swift has movie, and Mark doesn't get it. Kevin can't help, as he doesn't get it either. There's a bit about societal norms, why suspenders are awesome, and Camera Obscura, the concept, the band, and the website and podcast. Camera Obscura Camera Obscura - band Atlas Obscura…

Mark and Kevin discuss the latest drama in Wisconsin, Lauren Boebert's latest incident, rich businessmen who hate their employees and want them to stop feeling empowered, Boss Tweed, some logical fallacies, Donald trump (of course), and a few other items. Wisconsin Supreme Court candidates often speak out on hot topics.

1:00:19

A submarine imploded, Biden was blamed for a slow response, and obviously Trump, would have found it faster...probably by himself. The Supreme Court went crazy recently. Some people tie their self-worth to their favorite professional sports team, which Mark and Kevin find odd. The political organization, Moms for Liberty quoted Hitler in a recent newsletter. Kids and sports, or activities is always a challenge, and it's a fine line between exposing kids to sports or activities, and forcing them to do things they don't like. They also talk about mountain biking and speed reading, which was a thing.…

The one about home projects, science as a team sport, cars are complicated, music snobbery, old rock stars, jury duty, AI, skateboarding 1:08:50

לפני 2 years1:08:50

1:08:50

Kevin spent the day of the podcast fixing things, whether broken or not, so that's how the episode starts. Mark has an encounter with a climate change denier who almost utters the words "global warming", but then catches himself in the nick of time. Unfortunately science has become a team sport, with political allegiance taking priority. New cars are too complicated. Kevin likes the old ones that are easy to work on. Also, Mark and Kevin were, and probably still are, music snobs. That was a part of their personas as adolescents, and probably kept them from having more friends. The music snobbery leads to a discussion of aging rock and pop stars. Jury duty is a thing most people don't want to do, but someone has too. They should pay more so people can do it without worrying about paying their bills. The guys talk about AI. It's artificial...is it intelligent (no)? Finally, skateboarding is cool.…

The one about baseball, pesäpallo, cricket, English food, golf and other activities that pay a lot, Gwyneth Paltrow, Trump indictment, bad politicians, the Weekly World News, and the Satanic Temple 1:12:02

1:12:02

Major League Baseball is changing the rules. Mainly, because it kind of sucks. Pesäpallo, the national sport of Finland is kind of like baseball, but different, and cricket is confusing. Golf is even more boring than baseball. English food is pretty awful, but at least you can get any other kind of food while you're there. Some "sports" are really activities, but they sure pay a lot. Gwyneth Paltrow was sued for a ski accident, and Trump was indicted. Lots of politicians are terrible, and one in particular, Robert Linlithgow Livingston Jr, was extra awful. Set to be Newt Gingrich's replacement after Gingrich resigned for his ethics violations. Bob Livingston is on a list of politicians that were involved in sex scandals, which starts with Alexander Hamilton. Somehow the Weekly World News comes up, and as it turns out it still exists. The Satanic Temple is pretty awesome, and they are doing after school activities.

The one about the latest Musk drama, attention seeking politicians, 70s string art, Sri Lanka, the Queen of Canada 1:03:56

לפני 2 years1:03:56

1:03:56

SpaceX employees feels more calm with Musk focused on Twitter. Elon is like the man behind the curtain , desperately pulling levers. Attention seekers: Musk, MTG, George Santos, Andrew Tate, and others. Elon Musk is focused on Twitter, and his SpaceX employees feel a weight lifted off their shoulders with no Musk breathing down their necks. He and so many others are attention seekers. In his case it's costing him billions. For others, such as Marjorie Taylor Green, Andrew Tate, and George Santos, it was a key to their success. Santos has appealed to the crass sensibilities of the right, while engaging in the very activities the right claims to hate, in a similar strategy to that of Hershel Walker and Donald Trump. Donald Trump is in a pickle, with his claim that the vaccine solved millions of lives, as his supporters believe the vaccine was actually a tracking device, or whatever. Kevin and Mark think 70s style, string art depicting today's silly politicians is a great idea. Twitter has $1.5 billion (or three Bezos' yachts, and more than Trump lost in one year) in interest payments due. Mark doesn't need the billions Musk has, because Mark has the things he needs in life, unlike Musk. Sri Lanka's economy is collapsing. The prime minister of New Zealand is resigning. Mark and Kevin are in favor of defunding things that don't work, whether it's the police or their dishwashers. The show takes a dark turn, discussing the murders in Moscow, Idaho, the Leopold and Loeb murder, and the Slender Man murder (actually, attempted murder. Mark and Kevin discuss the mistakes made in crimes, and touch on a bike riding bank robber, and a woman who stole a million dollars and had plastic surgery. The show, Power Slap is upsetting and exploitative, which leads to a discussion of the "Queen of Canada" who has convinced followers to stop paying their bills. And QAnon convinced people to leave their families and jobs to wait for JFK Jr. Mark and Kevin wonder what's more hazardous, children or hard drugs. Kevin's kid is going to be home schooled for the rest of the year. The plan is to go to Europe in the middle of the semester. This somehow leads back to a discussion of Elon Musk. They discuss compulsions and the difference between compulsive behavior and just bad decisions. This leads to a discussion about the Guinness Book of World Records. Some records are a choice and some are happenstance. Kevin and friends thought they broke the record for most four leaf clovers found in one setting. They found 21 four leaf clovers in Carbondale Colorado.

Mark and Kevin were obviously hungry and immediately began the show with a discussion of taco trucks, and food trucks in general. Kevin recalls the time when GOP strategist promised food trucks on every corner. Sadly, that never happened. Somehow the conversation morphs into a conspiracy theory about "Big Hamburger" convincing us to not like salads, then moves on to the Frosty, fast food, and video stores. They also reminisce also a few old Letterman clips, talk about God, Heaven and Hell, Harold and Maude, and medical bills.

59:02

This is the billionaire take-down episode. Elon Musk is always in the news, as is his intention. It's hard not to talk about him and his purchase of Twitter. New things come out everyday, and Mark and Kevin talk about those things once again. There's also Sam Bankman-Fried, Elizabeth Holmes, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos, who thinks philanthropy is hard. Elon Musk is like a mobster, and Mark and Kevin discuss possible mobster names for themselves before discussing the current Musk/Twitter absurdities: Hundreds of employees say no to being part of Elon Musk’s ‘extremely hardcore’ Twitter Twitter locks staff out of offices until next week Twitter Now Asks Some Fired Workers to Please Come Back You Can’t Code Your Way Out of the Culture Problem Twitter Is Being Sued By Its Own Employees For Mass Layoffs General Motors, Pfizer, United Airlines: Here Are All the Big Advertisers That Have Left Twitter Since Elon Took Over Tesla's New Tequila Glasses Are Designed to Ruin Your Tequila Drinking Experience "Gentlemen, [he] may talk like an idiot and look like an idiot. But don’t let that fool you. He really is an idiot." A discussion of Ye's antisemitic Twitter rant, leads to an idea for a Death Metal music converter app, that converts anything into Death Metal, which leads to an idea to make Whitefish Ski Resort into Deathfish Ski Resort in an effort to discourage skiers from coming and crowding our slopes. Sam Bankman-Fried, FTX , Alameda Research, and Caroline Ellison are all in the news non-stop, for fraud, and their Real World style, Bahama lifestyle. Elizabeth Holmes gets more than 11 years for her fraud with Theranos. Mark Zuckerberg is losing a ton on his ridiculous Metaverse , and J eff Bezos thinks philanthropy is hard . Mark and Kevin would just like him to pay more taxes, pay his employees more, and treat them better.…

לפני 2 years1:13:52

1:13:52

Mark and Kevin can't stop talking about Elon Musk. Now he's bought Twitter and now works 120 hours per week. Things don't seem to be going great at Twitter. Kyrie Irving gets in trouble and seems to double down. Billionaires can make their own reality, at least in the eyes of their supporters. Full self driving cars aren't happening anytime soon. The discussion moves back to Twitter, with Musk's failed change to the verification check mark. Advertisers are fleeing, and Elon has no good way to make everyone happy. Lots of Twitter employees lose their jobs, including ones necessary to keep Twitter functioning. Mark would like to see a crazy right-wingers in a house together reality show. The billionaires lost billions, but are still billionaires. A Norwegian princess relinquishes her royal duties to run an alternative medicine business with her self-proclaimed shaman fiance. Neither Mark nor Kevin like cruises. Norwegian princess quits royal duties to work with ‘shaman’ fiance Elon Musk says he used a popular weight-loss drug to get 'fit, ripped, and healthy' R.I.P. to Twitter’s Short-Lived Double Verification It took a 19-year-old with $8 10 minutes to blow up Elon Musk’s new blue check scheme Vulture Capitalist Beatport…

With Hurricane Ian in the news, the episode starts with natural disasters. As is typical, the rest of the show is a stream of consciousness discussion of bad movie pitches, fancy restaurants, Red Lobster and seafood, lab grown meat, Maya Rudolph, Cracker Barrel, The Great Outdoors, 80s camp movies, Airplane II, Henry Winkler, Van Morrison and all the music Mark hates, Scott Baio and opportunism in the crazy right, spit balls, students tormenting teachers, the cool dads we think we are, Jerry of the Day, and Elon Musk's embarrassing text messages.
