Stop The Hero Worship: A Tale Of Bernie And Paul

A lot is said about the folks attending corona virus protests, so in this episode I talk to one. Additionally, I rant for a while about some "not fake" news, and tell folks using confederate flags to stop it.

Talking To A Corona Virus Protester

I've decided there is value in attacking arguments and ideas that seem completely stupid if they are being repeated often enough by people who are not, in fact, stupid. On this show we break down the flaws in a meme argument being made around corona virus, and spend some time trying to figure out what Rush Limbaugh is trying to say.
