Episode Details

Everything that could go wrong technically did today — but I somehow pushed through anyway. We had no video working, but I got the audio, so regular podcast listeners won't hear anything different in a big way. Thanks for bearing with me. I hope to get everything working by tomorrow, though I can't make any promises!

Bruce W. Nelson (Mangy Fetlocks) brings two new songs, on Todd Blanche's AG confirmation and the Katie Miller/Eric Swalwell gossip. Dr. Art Jipson joins for a conversation ranging from a maddening doctor's office no-show policy to Blanche's confirmation and swearing-in, Tillis and Cornyn caving on their votes, Max Miller's strange non-denial of domestic abuse allegations, and Art's new piece at The Conversation on how the Fauci COVID-origins hearing turned conspiracy theories into political weapons. Plus: a flashback comedy bit on Dr. Debbie Birx, and a candid conversation about what AI is actually useful for in content production — and what it gets wrong.
