The Homespun Yak returns this week to discuss the incredibly smooth and extraordinarily peaceful final exit of American forces and civilians from Afghanistan. The guys fondly reminisce on the past 20 years of their lives and talk of the good times - back when America responded to acts of terrorism by violently overthrowing the governments of foreign nations, drone striking villages to oblivion and forcibly spreading the ideals of democracy to those living in hunter gatherer societies. Are the good times truly over for good? America's oldest living man (Joe Biden) seems to think so...
Not to worry folks, we discuss some happy topics along the way in this episode as well. These subjects include but are not limited to:
Cristiano Ronaldo's triumphant return to Manchester United. The prodigal son hath returned!
Nic's Top 3 (ish) comedians and some that he feels have tremendously fallen off from their glory days.
Tik Tok is the new American dream! If you hate how rich and famous Tik Tokers are then you are just jelly.
Ben Shapiro vs Pod Save America
We thank you kindly for tuning in!

Afghanistan and Messi Moves
Oh hi there, it's been a few weeks - we've been busy improving the podcast in absolutely no way. We've actually been traveling and making personal moves, but we're back (this week we can promise, at least). In this episode, we catch up with Kyle before ranting a bit on the new CoVID policies (when will this end? WHEN?), before taking a bit more of a serious turn into the Afghanistan situation and how it was handled. Finally, we discuss sports - Messi moving to PSG, NBA, NFL, and the usual finishing thoughts on sports. Hit us up on Instagram (@homespunyak). Enjoy, or don't.

We Don't Much Care for The Olympics or ESPN
In this recent episode of the HSY, the broskis discuss the dramatic ending to the Euro Cup Final and the different reactions across the globe. Nic in particular was very distraught by the result LOL.
The guys then turn towards the next major sporting event around the corner that will inevitably capture the eyes of a global audience- The Tokyo Olympics. The absurdity of banning Sha'Carri Richardson for a positive THC test is compared to the Olympics allowing a Trans Woman to compete with Biological Women in the weightlifting competition. The Olympics would rather secure sponsorships through virtue signaling than focus on the health/safety and financial well-being of it's athletes... who at the end of the day bring in all of the global viewership! Nic and Kyle are making a stand and will be #boycotting the Olympics. Try to have a successful Olympics now without the backing of the Homespun Yak!
We thank you for backing us and listening!
