A podcast I listen to, Friendly Fire (3 guys talking about one war movie a week), has been cancelled.

One of the hosts, John Roderick, was the 'Bean Dad' that was the Twitter scandal a couple of weeks ago.

Seriously though, what (if any) TV show theme songs would you rank higher? I got Rockford Files and White Shadow.

Terrible show...great theme song...

Barney Miller was such a great show.

After a few delays due to shifty breeze, good race going on (NBCSN) right now between Luna Rossa and the Brits.

However, any time someone "comes out of nowhere" to contend in an event and becomes an instant story that requires a profile, it gets tougher. Even a Zoom is made a little harder due to time zone differences in these cases. AKA the 'Rulon Gardner' effect... ETA: And writing that name made me rememb...

Anytime some Con wants to suggest that America is a meritocracy, remember to point out that Madison Cawthorn: * lost the ability to walk because he didn’t use a seat belt, * didn’t get into his first choice of colleges, * dropped out of college because he partied too hard, * was credibly accused of...

Which led me to find his email address and fire off a fire-and-brimstone angry tirade, which to his credit, he actually responded to. Dear Young Davy, Fuck you. Sincerely, Mike Gallagher Pretty much.

Interspersing bits from americans helping out and then having them throw it to the musical acts has been effective and moving. Someone in the Biden WH knows how to do 21st century media, imagry, and messaging effectively. They really do. The convention was really well done as well (I thought). I wi...

ETA: Oh yeah, and he actively fought testing, because "it will make my numbers look bad." He would fucking rather have the disease run rampant and nobody know who had it than test people to isolate them to prevent the spread. He openly said, for months, he cared more about "his numbers" than lives ...

I actually could only ever seeing her running on the Democrat side, and they would take her. Reclamation project. She was just a progressive trapped on that evilness of that family. She would get chewed up by Republicans fast.

Yeah....no fucking way that happens.

She’s the Trump kid I hate the most. The sons are assholes, but they’re also stupid. She’s actually average intelligence, so her turpitude is worse. Frankly, I think you're giving her too much credit. I don't even think she's even average intelligence, but she has more emotional intelligence than h...

That's hilarious. I have a few buddies that are in a Greeley-smell text alert group.

Being a huge flaming asshole is quite a business model.

I looked at their website (I'd never heard of the company). Looks like totally standard issue snowboard gear, and way over priced.

She does have a name: Milana Vayntrub

She's been a guest on Doug Loves Movies a few times, and is pretty fun from what I remember.
