On The Eve Of The Snowpocolypse.
The story of what I have been doing with myself for the last several months. Obviously, not uploading new episodes.

Like Clockwork, LA has, once again, broken out in riots. This month's civil unrest brought to you by way of ICE agents enforcing federal immigration laws. While the riots were short lived, at least by California standards, there was...
Closing Soon At A Theater Near You!
When we are children, we assume that things will always be how they are at that moment. As we grow older, we witness things that seemed to be immutable parts of the world slowly disappear as life, technology and culture move on to newer a...
The Lessons Of The Past
The American automotive industry has been a perpetual roller coaster for my entire life. In my fifty years on this planet, American autos have been trash, decent, as good as anything imported and now they have went back to trash.Wh...
HAHL - The Midnight Ride Of Who?
Today, I have the story of a forgotten revolutionary war hero. A native of my home state of Virginia. While this man's deeds probably did not affect the outcome of the war itself, had he failed in his mission the history of Virginia...
Heil Elon
Today, we explore the willful misrepresentation of events that crop up so often in our contentious society. We briefly discuss the fact that Trump did not in fact declare himself dictator on day one. Finally, I once again level a personal...
Liar, Liar. City on Fire.
2025 is moving too quickly to keep up with. Between social media billionaires doing damage control, Gavin Newsom's presidential aspirations literally going up in flames and the return of political assassinations to our culture, we have a ...

You Can't Just Make Things Up.

The Once And Future King.
Election day has come and gone. Elation for some, sorrow for others. But for a select few in our nation, corporate journalists and Tic-tokkers mainly, the results have initiated a decline in cognitive function.
HAHL - The Carrington Event
165 Years ago, the Earth experienced some minor damage to machinery due to solar storms. The effects were so insignificant that few have heard of this strange day in our nation's history, but it should be viewed as a cautionary tale.

You Call This Democratic?
A bit of a potpourri of an episode. Today I say goodbye to an icon of both Hollywood and popular culture. Then I solve the trans athlete debate once and for all. And finally, I dig into the issue of the upcoming election that ...
Sex, Drugs and Government Secrets.
The problem with secret government programs is that when people believe that their actions will never be known or scrutinized, they tend to go straight to their worst tendencies. Add in a dash of government incompetence and a pile of taxp...
Next Man(Or Woman) Up.
As if our elections aren't crazy enough in a normal year, this week we witnessed a true first in American elections. A failed assassination attempt on one candidate resulted in a vacancy on the ballot, but it was the other guy who dropped...
Crowdfunding Everyday Life.
At what point do we say that the constant asking for handouts has reached critical mass? I am not referring to homeless people asking for spare change, that will always be a thing. I am talking about regular people thinking that it ...

The Dramatic Hollywood Death Scene.
Technologies come and go. Societal trends come and go. New trends come in to take the place of the old. All things eventually run their course and fade away. I believe that we may be watching the end of an industry that ...
When Narratives Collide.
Today we discuss the lack of media interest in a few recent shootings. While the traditional reaction to any highly public gun violence has been wall to wall coverage, as of late the focus has very quickly shifted away from the incidents....
