Tonight we discuss, what else, last weeks big verdict: 34 felony convictions for Donald Trump, as well as the discourse surrounding it since from both the right (unhinged, flailing, hypocritical) and the left (basically nonexistent for some reason). Also Fauci’s big day and a bunch of other fun stuff too. Join us.

Tonight Trae and Mark will be joined by longtime Skewniverse vagabond extraordinaire Drew Morgan to discuss Libertarians, Trump, RFK Jr. (as well as his maybe-also-insane running mate), and a host of other topics. Gonna be a good un!

Tonight we dive into the wildly typical and deeply disturbing decision by Texas Governor Greg Abbott to pardon a man who was convicted by a jury of his peers of murdering a BLM protestor in 2020. But before that we tackle the lighter matters of the new Trump biopic and the demise of Red Lobster. Join us.

Skewers: are tariffs good? Should lab-grown meat be banned? Should paying for your prescriptions require a second mortgage? Will Big Oil give Donald Trump an actual billion dollars? We ruminate on these questions and more (plus some fun dumbassery) on tonight’s Skews.

Skewers, tonight we welcome friend of the show and labor activist John Russell (of More Perfect Union) to discuss the biggest win for Labor in the South in recent memory: the decision by workers at a massive Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga to join the UAW. We’ll talk about what it means, both right now and for the future of working people below the Mason-Dixon Line.

Tonight we talk about the new abortion ban just approved by Arizona’s Supreme Court…and by “new” we mean “from the Civil War Era”. The draconian law allows no exceptions for rape or incest and is, generally speaking, really bad and dumb. Also: how the media is helping Trump appear to be more moderate than he is, and much much more. Join us.

On tonight’s episode we discuss, among many other hilariously stupid things, the right’s wholly manufactured panic about a supposed War on Easter being launched by the Biden Administration. Why? Well, a couple of different years-old policies pre-dating and having less than nothing to do with the Biden Administration, of course. Join us.

Description: On tonight's show we talk the recent chaos in the House with special guest, Congressman Eric Swalwell (D-CA)! Also, how Joe Biden used the power of diversity and immigration to destroy that bridge in Baltimore (according to idiots). Join us.

Skewers, tonight we discuss the GOP primary happening in Ohio and the dumbness unfolding therein, with some experts saying that Ohio has become “the Hindenburg of democracy”. So that’s reassuring. Also, Producer Matt’s governor Kristi Noem is doing Texas teeth ads and Paul Manafort is back in the game baby. Join us.

Skewers tonight we talk about the designs of a brand spankin’ new group of far right Christian lunatic men, the many lies of former special counsel Robert Hur, the potential impact of RFK Jr, and finally perhaps the most unhinged State of the Union response in living memory, from Alabama Senator Katie Britt. Join us.

Skewers this week we are thrilled to welcome Tom Schaller and Paul Waldman, the authors of the much debated new book about the threat to democracy percolating in our homeland: “White Rural Rage”! Gonna be a good un!

In a truly shocking turn of events, the star witness in the GOP’s big Hunter Biden investigation has turned out to be a Russian agent. Who could have foreseen that circus taking an even dumber turn, we ask you. Also, the Alabama assault on IVF has Republicans reeling. All that and more on tonight’s Skews.

Skewers, tonight we discuss the bombshell news that Russia is (apparently) developing a space nuke, which is like a nuke, but more future-y. And the silly freak out about it. We talk about it, along with the latest news from the frontlines of the abortion debate (Alabama, natch), Trump’s pumped up kicks, and some serious dumbassery from Trae’s beloved Tennessee. Join us.

Tonight: sure, Donald Trump may be an aging megalomaniac who openly threatens to unravel democracy and throw our allies to the Russian wolves, but have you considered that Joe Biden is, like, super old? That discussion plus more, so join us.

Well you’ll never believe this Skewers, but things down at the southern border have only gotten MORE dumb and weird in the intervening week since last we met. Tonight we talk about it, along with some Trump Crime updates, porn bans, hailing Satan, and more. Join us.

Well, Skewers, things are getting pretty wild (and secession-y) down there around the southern border as the conversation around immigration policy continues to escalate. We’ll talk about that, the true dangers of a Taylor Swift Super Bowl, White House drug parties, and more, on tonight’s Skews. Join us.

Tonight we talk (and laugh) about the long overdue end to perhaps the most disastrous and disappointing presidential campaign in living memory: that of Florida Governor and noted spaghetti person Ron DeSantis. Along the way we get into Trump’s increasingly poor mental state, some truly absurd laws coming out of Oklahoma, and more. Join us.

Skewers, join us as we dive into the recent kerfuffle with Boeing and their apparently rickety planes, which, if ya didn’t know, are rickety due to wokeness (at least according to Fox News). We talk about what really is to blame (spoiler: it’s capitalism again), along with the Iowa caucus results and a whole buncha other dumb stuff, on tonight’s show.

Skewers you may have noticed that stories involving threats of political violence have been trending upward recently, and 2024 is only nine days old. So that’s…less than comforting. Tonight we discuss this and a great many other topics. Join us.
