DONALD TRUMP CANCELLED PRIDE MONTH + An Orca Update, NOT GOOD - What are We Doing Podcast Episode 94
Description
Kicking off our glorious journey through the rabbit hole, we dove headfirst into the nostalgic, pre-smartphone era. Remember Cha Cha? That free texting service we used before our pocket-sized computers could connect to the internet? A time when 'Googling' required actual typing and patience, not just a quick question to a voice-activated assistant! Ah, the good old days of being blissfully ignorant to the future of autocorrect fails.
Now, brace yourselves, because we zoomed right from vintage tech to talking about none other than Donald Trump. Oh yes, the ex-president and his ever-present controversies! Today's hot topic? His looming federal case. Will he be going to jail? Spoiler alert: probably not. But we sure had a good laugh at the idea of him sharing government secrets in the bathroom, all the while, holding onto the location of extraterrestrial life and hidden treasures.
What's more terrifying than aliens, you ask? How about orcas launching orchestrated attacks on ships and making surprise visits to the California coast? Who knew Free Willy had such a dark side? This gave "having a whale of a time" a whole new meaning.
Our journey then took a detour via Pennsylvania, where we explored its high taxes and tolls. We shared a collective sigh over late fees and questioned the logic of some people's aversion to paying tolls. (Come on, folks, it's not like it's a troll under a bridge demanding gold.)
Speaking of bridges, we had a hearty chat about the bridge explosion in Philadelphia. Between detours, repairs, and some fascinating eyewitness accounts (Peter, we're looking at you and your party-hard lifestyle), it's been quite an adventure.
But wait, there's more! The corporations decided to cancel Pride Month, sparking some serious debate. A Starbucks worker started a petition after Pride decorations were removed. Props to them for standing up for what they believe in! We also took a peek at the Target Pride merch, prompting a revolutionary proposal for Pride sections at both ends of the stores. Now that's a way to show your colors!
Next up, we had a round of TikTok talk. From debating a potential federal ban to discussing Vookum's watch flipping business, we covered it all. Plus, we had a good chuckle over some peculiar trends, like faking your death and arriving at your own funeral in a helicopter. (Note: we do not recommend trying this at home... or anywhere, really.)
In the spirit of collaboration, we gave a shout out to the High Cheese podcast. They're chatting about baseball and Pride, and we're all ears. We even hinted at a potential appearance by Vookum. Fingers crossed!
