Top-notch production and articulate discussion. This show has quickly become one of my go-to podcasts.
"Cricket is boring" Josh tut tut, but it's literally the first thing in over 100 listens of yours I take issue with, you get a not out... for now
Has the feed been playing up for anyone else this week? It's missing some of the most recent episodes.
21 seconds long?
it's coming from the women. They've totally wrapped themselves up in this diversity bs. It's because their inclination is to be pro-social, and the driving narrative from the left is to feel sorry for minorities and degrade the humanity of whites. These are white women. With white fathers, mothers, white ancestors. But it's more important to them to be considered kind and conscientious in the present.
Male suicide Ava has zero regards to the male suicide rate. I lost too many friends through the years due to their struggles. Dax's song To Be a Man extended Mix is a power song that highlights what men bottle up.
When Liberalism clashes with reality Individuals who did not have a heavy-handed approach to the enforcement of Federal Immgration laws are at fault of the collapse of major cities. It is easy to vote for utopian ideas when it does not affect your own community. New York polticans called other states racist and xenophobic for enforcing the Federal laws. Now they will reap what they sowed.
5 Guys? I guess Carl did not read the online warnings to be careful eating at Five Guys. Many individuals received food poison from staff using defrosted mushrooms. When mushrooms are left to sit after defrosting, they can form bacteria.
Food snoob This episode I have to disagree. When it comes to "American food," there is no one national dish since the country has a wealth of dishes from around the world. Taco Bell is not Mexican food but a fast food bastardized version. Personally, I use light spices when cooking so as not to overpower what I am cooking. My grandmother is from Spain and always said that too many spices can ruin a fine meal
The death of Hollywood With the COVID lockdown destroying the illusion of Hollywood films and the governor's diversity hire in the film industry, Hollywood is in in death throws. The Hollywood industry did not learn from their own history when the film industry fled New Jersey and Thomas Edison's strangling policies. As screen writers, production companies, and actors flee California, the Hollywood industry is dying off.
FBI vs. Trump election When he said that the FBI would storm polling sites and count the votes, his comment reminded me of the Battle of Athens, Tennessee. https://www.legendsofamerica.com/the-battle-of-athens-tennessee/
Securing the USA sovereign borders This is not a hard descion since Bill Clinton and Bush Jr. pushed policies and operations in place. Joint Task Force 6 created under Bill Clinton and expanded into Joint TASK Force North under Bush Jr. . JTF6,now JTF6, was founded to secure our sovereign border by using the USA Armed Services of all branches operating with Homeland Secruity, FBI, and the CIA.
AI reconstruction of physical traits AI takes the sum of available human knowledge and makes an educated guess in the compilation of physical features. I would think it would be safe to say that the AI used 200 years of sources on physical anthropology to formalize that the bone structure coincides with a certain ethnicity. For example, a skull with an eye socket is large and could be considered to be caccusasian, individuals from the Caccus region.
"America was not founded on stolen land, but it was conquered."
Florida mosquito Great, now we have malaria cases popping up in Florida, Texas, and Louisiana. I guess since countries like the Republic of Korea no longer need malaria vaccines, it is time to import viral into the US population.
"Jesus is a Socialist" Many self described Socialist try to say Jesus was a Socialist, to placate their internal struggle of State versus a higher power. Jesus believed in the individual being accountable for their own actions. Prior to Jesus, the society was above the individual and himself was against the Roman Empire, not a statest. Jesus, even if one considered Jesus a prophet, is the bridge for direct relationship with God. One can not be a Christian Socialist, National Socialist, nor an Socialist-Marxist. National Socialism is a cult of Gnosticism, not Christianity. https://thelibertariancatholic.com/can-a-catholic-be-socialist/
"The Native tribe of America." Not all tribes were accepting of early colonist. Europeans, rightfully so, was viewed as invaders into tribal territories. Not all colonist were killed, but others were captured and made into slaves. The European men who were captured had to prove their worth before the tribe accepted them above an animal.
I respect James on his take on today's Progressives follow Gnosticism in their cult like ideology of Socialist agendas.
National Socialist Ukrainian soldiers Any organized military needs to set standards in uniform, battle doctrine, and the enforcement of rules of engagement. The Ukrainian government is turning a blind eye to standards in their fighting force for a win against the Russian forces. It is on the Ukrainian Generals to publish policies laying out the standards that must be upheld. If those standards are not upheld by Commander's and Squad leaders, then how would the soldiers be held accountable for their own actions? If the Ukrainian wants to hold the moral high ground and have a clean public image, then must publish policies dictating that all Ukrainian forces can not wear any symbols linked to extremist organizations. In the US Armed Forces, the Department of Defense publishes policies to hold all branches to set standards. The Zero Tolerance for Gangs, Cliques, and Extremist organizations list out what symbols leaders must be on the lookout for. Any individual service member wearing, havi
The trans, prominently males, have pushed out the lesbians in different areas. San Francisco and LA the Drags silence females concerns.
