It's been a while since we did a completely unstructured episode with no purpose or particular theme or aim in mind. I had to deal with the dogs and cat during our talk here, so it's a little more chaotic than usual - but entertaining and informative nonetheless, I trust!

Pres. Joe Biden spoke at a Maryland community college earlier today, again taking ownership of the term "Bidenomics" and contrasting it against "MAGAnomics." You'll get the entire speech on today's show with some notes from yours truly. Then, when someone says "the quiet part out loud" they're telling you their intentions. Australian real estate mogul / billionaire Tim Gurner did a bit of that. Take a listen.

Governor Brian Kemp's gas tax break is both a nice "little" break at the pump and also nothing more than a political stunt. I see it for what it is, and you should, too. A federal judge lashed out at the city of Atlanta for being the cause of the all the "Cop City Vote" confusion, but c'mon ... we know this is by design. A planned development along the Atlanta Beltline at the former Amsterdam Walk is going to bring a LOT of people to a nine-acre plot with one - maybe

I began today by dissecting Kevin McCarthy's mealy-mouthed presser, and Marjorie Taylor Green's many "tells" too. Then - I know I've been worrying about grassroots blowback - it's real and it's being spoken into existence. WIth local and state Democrats thumbing their noses at the Cop City Vote movement, there may be some real resentment brewing from activists towards the party that's going to need them in 2024. Lastly, a tip of the cap to Carl Nassib and paying

Governor Brian Kemp spent more time dousing the hardly-flickering embers of Sen. Colton Moore's efforts to have Fulton DA Fani WIllis removed and/or "defunded" than he did talking hurricane aftermath at a press conference pretty much called for news about the state's post-Idalia efforts. Hear what he had to say (and what I had to say about what he had to say). I'd called on Rep. Nikema WIlliams, and Senators Rev. Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff to speak up in the face of Atlanta

Rudy G got popped in federal court today, and will have to shell out (a minimum) of $13k to Ruby Freeman & Shaye Moss - the twu Fulton County elections workers he targeted with false accusations of wrongdoing on election night, November 2020. Hear how the judge dressed him and his attorney down. Oh but there IS evidence of voter fraud in Alabama. Guess which side is guilty? There's a brewing revolt (and walkout) at the iconic Atlanta Magazine, as anti-woke corporate pin-heads in Michigan

Okay, I KNOW I should be diving into the "woulda coulda shoulda" indictments against more than THREE DOZEN people - including two former Georgia Senators and Sen. Lindsay Graham - from that infamous-now Fulton County Grand Jury, or Elon Musk sabotaging a Ukrainian military operation, but ... I had a couple of really good conversations I wanted to share going into the weekend instead. First, Sagamore Hill Consulting principal and founder Andrew Heaton to converse as to why so many elected

On this episode we cover a wide range of topics. Hatch kicks off the podcast with Bobbi Althoff being just another white person who used and abused the culture?! Dwayne Wade reveals his father at Hall Of Fane Ceremony?! Keke Palmer stars as leading lady in Ushers new music video?!Doja Cat loses over 500k Followers & feels vindicated?! Did Patrick Mahomes just watch his marriage crumble over fried chicken?! Hatch discusses “ghetto” being deemed culture?! Est Gee goes viral for walking out of

Call it "afterglow," if you wish. Now that Donald Trump's been printed & photographed and paid his bond (with the aid of a bail bondsman?), today's show was going to be lighter and more airy, but first let's revisit Donald's tarmac tirade and Laura Ingraham's hilarious hyperbole last night. My returning guest today was Susan Greenhagl from "Free Speech for People." She collaborated with Ben Clements for a recent Slate piece deftly asking where the feds

Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr dropped 61 RICO indictments against #CopCity activists today so I'm leading with audio from that press conference and some follow-up questions from journalists covering it. From there, pre-rage rage showing up on the right over potential (?) use of the 14th Amendment, so let's learn a little about that amendment and its historical significance and why it may well be appropriate - AND land before the Trump-packed Supreme Court to invalidate his

Pretty explosive story from the Cobb County Courier exposing how recent county school board book bans didn't stem from parent/guardian complaints at all, but from "Libs of TikTok." Journalist Becky Gaunt joins me to share details from her story and how the facts all came together for it. I'm also joined by Andrew Lawrence, deputy director for rapid response at Media Matters for America, to critique Fox News' performance broadcasting the first GOP primary debate, and the

My first guest today is BRAND-NEW American citizen Ludwig, my good friend from the Dominican Republic. Hear his experience - and how his pathway to citizenship lends him to having empathy for asylum-seekers today. Donnell Suggs from the Atlanta Voice joins me to give me bits from the circus scene outside the Fulton County Jail as Sydney Powell, Jenna Ellis and Rudy Giuliani all get booked & post bond. Plus, I want to get his take on the city's attempts to (somewhat, they say) use

Atlanta's Democratic party-membered civic leadership is going with 'signature matching' - the same technique the state party sued the state to stop using - to verify the 104,000+ signatures the 'Cop City Vote' organizers collected. The lack of self-awareness with the mayor & council here is stunning. From Erick Erickson's "The Gathering," let's eavesdrop in on some Chris Christie commentary, complete with Erick mis-representing the 'Cop City'

Covid's rearing its nefarious head again, so I figured I'd ask: what are you going to do when a new booster rolls out later this month? Are you prone to wearing a mask in close quarters? CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta has some "common sense" advice on how we handle it, if we feel symptoms. The antivax folks got me to thinking about that scene in "Avenue 5" where a big contingent of passenger on the space cruise believed they were being fooled by visual effects right down to

CONTENT WARNINGS FOR RAPE, CHILD MOLESTATION, AND MENSTRUATION In this month's episode of the Cavalcade we chat about AI "art," police are not actually crime fighters, some sustainable swaps, the Red Guard trying to buy a food truck for houseless outreach, a CPUSA cult, Back II the Future II: the Futuring, and of course the Strike Corner.Monthly summary of some of the top new stories and the capitalist machinations behind the event. Also tips and tricks for living a better life through

Yesterday's judicial surprise - former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows showing up to testify for HOURS in an effort to get his trial moved to federal court - is perhaps a bit of a dogwhistle, I think. Never mind that defendants of color have spent many a decade - for more than a century, really - not enjoying the benefit of a jury that's more to their hue. There's also the curious way Vivek Ramaswamey surmises he'd have handled Mike Pence's predicament January 6th - and some

Trump's trial date set - an OBVIOUS ploy to derail his presidential campaign, right? I mean, whose fault is that, anyway? It's what former North Carolina governor called "the power of Trump" that freezes the GOP and other presidential hopefuls from DOING something about it - and his even BEING a viable candidate anymore. Then there's Vivek's nonsensical 'Meet the Press' appearance and Bernie Sanders' familiar-sounding warning to Democrats (sounding a lot like

The guys start by explaining why they haven't dropped a new episode the last few weeks (0:06) They then get to talking about former Minister of Foreign Affairs Harry Kalaba being accused of being part of the Gold Mafia that was uncovered by Al Jazeera (1:25) The BRICS summit took place and Zambia was present, will we see a new world order soon? (19:56). Yevgeny Prigozhin died in a plane crash, surprised? (31:56) Social media influencer Chitambala Mwewa from Simon Mwewa Lane
