Come along as we vent our spleens about events of the day.
We'll discuss subjects as diverse as why Brexit caused a fuel shortage in Lebanon. Which politician could best serve their countries by retiring? Why 9mm versus .45 ACP is the wrong question. How, after 116 years of business, Harley Davidson has only just started making decent motorcycles? Electricity is cool but are batteries really the future? Do women even like men anymore?
In truth we're just 3 people with disparate backgrounds and experience trying, in good faith, to use those differences to make sense of this mad mad mad world
After one of our lengthy breaks we return with out first podcast in the Post-Trent Era. Today we're talking about the non economic reasons for western separation, which we feel haven't been talked about enough in the current discourse on the issue. Though we make you sit through a half hour of conversation on AI before we get to it.

Are Trump And The Iranian Regime The Same
Well we fall down a rabbit hole right out of the gate, and I wish I could say it gets better, but it's kind of rabbit hole central with this episode.
Nevertheless we persist and attempt to discuss if there's any moral equivalency between the Iranian regime's killing of some thousands of its citizens in the wake of mass protests in that country and the US Government's killing of 2 citizens in Minnesota in protests against immigration enforcement.
I'm not sure that enjoy is the right word, but hopefully you find something to think about.

Like A Bad Rash, We're Back
With apologies for the 4 month hiatus, we're back. We've once again managed to assemble our crack production team of top men, and assembled an episode. It all starts with Trump and goes downhill from there. We get into TDS, corrupt capitalism, private sector unions and Che among other digressions. I'm not sure enjoy is the right word, but it's a word.
