The Way Back Machine

Progressives and Black Lives Matter activists gather in Richmond daily to continue protesting.  Republicans and Conservatives push back by continuing to grumble from the comfort and security of their living rooms.  Was The Great Experiment of American democracy always destined to end this way?  What could we have done differently?  Find out on Common Criminal Episode 084: First Thing's First #Richmond #RichmondVA #RVA --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/vincent-polcyn/support

First Thing's First

Being able to honestly say that you have never once witnessed the presence of soft racism in society is a form of privilege. If you don't believe me, take a sales job.

Episode 082: Return of the Ancient One

Biden wins big, Warren stays in, and CIA Pete drops out of the presidential primary race. What do we have here? Is the DNC finally playing fair for Bernie, or is this just more political gamesmanship? Everyone loves a good conspiracy, as long as you're not living in the middle of it.

Super Tuesday

Sometimes life makes you wonder a little bit, which makes you wander a little bit.  Just sharing some thoughts I've been having recently while trying to take care of myself, wondering if anyone has felt the same.  Common Criminal Episode 080: Run for Your Life #SelfCare #Sentimental #CommonCriminal #RVA #RichmondVA #Richmond #CharlottesvilleVA #HarrisonburgVA --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/vincent-polcyn/support

Run for Your Life

The Iowa caucuses are a long-standing political tradition that serve to set the stage for the presidential election every four years.  The 2020 Iowa caucus has left most voters thinking one thing in preparation for November: "What the actual f*** is going on?"  Everyone loves a good conspiracy... when they're not living in the middle of it.  So let's talk about it on Common Criminal Episode 079:  Mayor Cheat vs The State of Iowa #IowaCaucus #DNC #MayorCheat #CIAPete #BernieSanders #ElizabethWarren #Election2020 #RichmondVA #RVA #HarrisonburgVA #CharlottesvilleVA #CommonCriminal --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/vincent-polcyn/support

Mayor Cheat vs The State of Iowa

Despite an enormous crowd of armed individuals, Richmond's gun-rally on Monday proved to be a rather peaceful affair.  How, then, do I still find myself angry about Monday's events?  Was the media wrong to claim that this could have been Charlottesville 2.0?  Find out on Common Criminal Episode 078: RE State of Emergency . #Richmond #RichmondVA #RVA #2A #RalphNortham #Virginia #GunRights #GunRightsRally #GunControl --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/vincent-polcyn/support

RE State of Emergency

Things continue to heat up in Virginia.  Governor Northam declares a state of emergency in the days leading up to what will prove to be the largest pro 2A rally the state has ever seen.  The capitol building is seeing increased security, and the governor declares the area a gun-free zone.  What can we expect to see at the rally this Monday?  Find out on Common Criminal Episode 077: State of Emergency . I will be live-streaming the events happening in Richmond on Monday!  Share this video for your friends who are unable to make the event; I will be there for you, especially for those of you not there with me . #Richmond #RichmondVA #RVA #2A #RalphNortham #Virginia #GunRights #GunRightsRally #GunControl --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/vincent-polcyn/support

State of Emergency

Elizabeth Warren launches a barrage of personal attacks against Bernie Sanders, just as Nancy Pelosi hands impeachment of Trump over to the senate.  In the midst of strange gamesmanship on the part of Pelosi, I ask myself if this is another case of Pelosi and establishment democrats hoping to hide the ball.  How does Warren's campaign relate to impeachment?  Is this an attempt by the DNC to derail Bernie's campaign (again)?  Let's take a deep dive in Common Criminal Episode 076: Feel the Bern . .

The highest paid athletes in the world truly are super-human.... but in addition to superior genetics and years of training and discipline, we know the secret ingredient they use to get beyond the top 1% of performers.  Would we still admire professional sportsman if these individuals were just... regular people?  Is the real sport happening behind the scenes as research teams compete to turn highly-skilled sportsmen into super-humans?  Let's talk about it on Common Criminal Episode 075: Juiced . . #MLB #NFL #Steroids #RogerClemens #DavidOrtiz #MannyRamirez #A-Rod #BillyCorbin #Screwball #ArnoldSchwarzenegger #RVA #RichmondVA #Richmond #Charlottesville #CharlottesvilleVA #HarrisonburgVA #Harrisonburg #Juiced #CommonCriminal --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/vincent-polcyn/support

Last year we saw a large group of comedians calling out call-out culture and cancel culture.  Just this week, comedian Ricky Gervais brought this sentiment straight to the Golden Globes, and while we were laughing the celebrities in the audience were mostly silent.  What effect does cancel-culture have on common people?  What is the reaction when the media monolith claims "nobody cares" while millions are listening?  Let's talk about it on Common Criminal Episode 074: Outrage Culture . .

In the last several weeks the state of Virginia has been preparing for some of the biggest reforms in gun-laws the state has ever seen.  As the governor raises the budget for incarceration facilities, local sheriffs from nearly every county in the state have declared their districts as "2nd Amendment Sanctuaries."  As the date to vote on these new referendums draws closer we must ask:  What specifically do these laws say that have gun-owners up in arms?  What can we expect to happen if these changes are voted into law?  Is this another instance of lawmakers hiding the ball?  Find out on Common Criminal Episode 072: Ralph Northam vs the State of Virginia #2A #2ndAmendment #GunRights #Guns #Virginia #RalphNortham #RichmondVA #RVA #Richmond #CharlottesvilleVA #Charlottesville #Harrisonburg #HarrisonburgVA  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/vincent-polcyn/support
