Send us a textAs we collect ourselves in the new reality of just where we are now that the people have spoken, we realize that we need a break. In this episode, we share our thoughts on the election, and the need for some time to detox. The podcast will return in 2025. See you next year!We will stay engaged on our Facebook groups and hope to see you there.Minyard.minyardpodcast@gmail.comMusic by David Horton
Send us a textWe share the highlights, or lowlights, of the final week of the election cycle. By now, we all know the stakes and what to do. See you all on the other side...minyard.minyardpodcast@gmail.comMusic by David Horton
Send us a textThe campaigns are bringing out their big guns in the last days of the campaign. Harris has billionaires Beyonce, Springsteen and Mark Cuban as well as Barack and Michelle Obama to bring it home. Meanwhile, Trump is handing out French Fries from a drive thru window, and standing up audiences in Michigan while he tries to reach young men by chatting with Joe Rogan. He has Tucker Carlson opening for him by delivering a very creepy monologue. And yet, they tell us that it's a toss-u...
Send us a textHard to tell who had the worst week between Trump, Ted Cruz and Bret Baier. Steve Schmidt summarizes pretty well just what Kamala Harris did to Baier, while Colin Allred treated Ted Cruz like a piñata. But the award has to go to Trump, who got humiliated at an event in Chicago, and decimated at an Hispanic Town Hall in Miami and finished the week by failing to resist the urge to discuss Arnold Palmer's penis. USA! USA!Minyard.minyardpodcast@gmail.comMusic...
Send us a textHow much crazier and more dangerous can Trump and his MAGA acolytes rhetoric get? This past week shows that Trump is nervous...very nervous and willing to put lives in danger with his lies. Buckle in, because the next three weeks is going to be rough. We've already voted. Have you? Also, M & M's first ever movie review! minyard.minyardpodcast@gmail.comMusic by David Horton
Send us a textAs the polls continue to track for Harris/Walz, and the prospect of incarceration comes more closely into focus, Trump grows more and more desperate and delusional. One month from now, we'll have a clearer picture of our fate as a nation. Make your plans to vote.minyard.minyardpodcast@gmail.comMusic by David Horton

One Month to go...

Send us a textIn just over a month, the most important national election in our nation's history will take place. Our choice is between an insane, authoritarian wannabe who is literally losing his mind more by the day, and a truly historic and competent candidate. For some reason, polls tell us that the race is close. We'll have to deal with that later, but one thing is clear, it's not too early to make your voting plans. Don't wait for the last minute where natural disasters or other factors...
Send us a textThere was so much idiocy on display this past week, that we decided to devote the entire show to the sounds of that idiocy. As usual, virtually all of it leads back to Trump. Minyard.minyardpodcast@gmail.comMusic by David Horton

Send us a textWill Rogers famous quote "I am not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat" may finally have become obsolete. In a short 3 weeks, the Democrats, and more specifically the Harris campaign, has made all the right moves and have come from behind like a sprinter running down her opponents in the last 100 meters of a long race. As their convention approaches, how much better can it get for them, and concurrently, how much worse for Trump? Things are good.miny...
Send us a textAfter the NABJ convention debacle, a veteran GOP political pundit said “He did crap the bed. … The only question is whether he’s going to roll around in it or get up and change the sheets.” Well, he couldn't help himself during a Klan...er...MAGA rally in Atlanta, he did it again. This time, he continually attacked the popular Governor Brian Kemp in his home state, prompting one unnamed Republican advisor to say "he just lost Georgia". There is little debate th...
Send us a textOne week ago, in an instant, everything changed. It's now game on, and Trump is struggling to figure out how to deal with what is happening. minyard.minyardpodcast@gmail.comMusic by David Horton
Send us a textAs the nation sorts through all of the conspiracy theories from the assassination attempt on Trump, and survives the absolute clown show that was the GOP convention, we again ask the question of when (not if) Joe Biden will step aside for a younger Democrat who will defeat Trump and hopefully put an end to the MAGA nightmare. Meanwhile, Ken makes the case that President Biden will someday merit inclusion onto Mount Rushmore...IF he steps aside now and allows someone ...
Send us a textPresident Biden is so far ignoring the borderline panic and political crisis that is building among Democrats and freedom-loving people across the globe. He stubbornly resists the calls for him to step down from the campaign and pass the baton to a younger generation. He says that he'll only step aside if the "good Lord Himself" tells him to. Our question is: "How do we know that this isn't the good Lord doing just that"? We have the speech already written that Biden shoul...
Send us a textThree things happened at the disaster of what was called a "debate" last Thursday. 1. Biden was terrible. 2. Trump unleashed an avalanche of bullshit "the likes of which we've never seen".3. CNN crashed and burned while Jake Tapper and Dana Bash ended their careers for all intents and purposes.What now? We discuss.Minyard.minyardpodcast@gmail.comMusic by David Horton
Send us a textNo way around it. Last night was a fiasco. A disgusting and incompetent and lie-filled performance by Trump should have been destroyed by his debate opponent and the moderators. Instead, we are now faced with the fact that Biden is not up to the task and must be replaced immediately. CNN has also failed again in not addressing the avalanche of bullshit that Trump unleashed. Strap in. It's gonna be a wild ride.Minyard.minyardpodcast@gmail.comMusic by David...
Send us a textGotta love Louisiana. Thanks to their Governor signing into law there a mandate for all schools, public and private, to post the Ten Commandments in classrooms, Trump has had to deal with the issue. And Trump being Trump, went all in on the idea in front of the Faith and Freedom Conference. Now, let's take a look at those Ten Commandments and just how Trump measures up. Meanwhile, it's Debate Week! What could possibly go wrong?Minyard.minyardpodcast@gmail.comMu...
Send us a textThe past week featured a convicted felon with dozens of still pending charges sweep into town, where they threw a mob-style welcome home party for him. This leads to lots of questions. Associating with known criminals is disqualifying for just about any job in the country, so why do we accept that these weak examples of leaders are worthy of our most precious tool...our vote?

Awaiting the Verdict.

Send us a textWhile we endure the period between verdict and sentence, and the GOP is out twisting itself into knots in defense of the convicted felon, Trump has some time on his hands to get back in front of microphones at rally's and interviews. And being Trump, he's making a fool of himself. We brought the receipts.minyard.minyard@gmail.comMusic by David Horton
Send us a textBetween now and July 11th, Judge Juan Merchan will be deciding what to do with convicted felon Donald Trump. We will hear daily predictions of "no incarceration", "home confinement", "probation", "community service" and "prison time". One thing is certain, Merchan's decision will cause half of our political populace to lose their shit. MAGA is already floating around in the dark spaces of the internet that they are locked and loaded and waiting for Trump to give the signal...
