After a rough start with all kinds of technical difficulties, we managed to pull it together and deliver a fantastic show! Believe me, no one was more surprised than we were at how good the audio came out!

Anywho! Come join Florida Woman Rants and me as we tear into this whole “Charlie Kirk the little shitweasel Nazi is a martyr” crap the media is selling before we move on to all of the other trash this fascist regime is shoveling to deflect from Epstein and the crumbling economy.

Elections are coming and time is running out. Tik-Tok, motherfuckers.
