 S7E43 Crime: It’s What You Do When Consecquences Go Away! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 45:14

On this Episode of AirWreckRadio The Avengers break movies, The President breaks laws, and the Beto breaks his streak of having no policy!

 L’Eglise a Des Assurances, Des Stupides! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 52:45

On this episode of AirWreckRadio, Star Trek Discovery has finished up its second season, and Stacey has some thoughts on the show. Cory will, too, but he was waiting for the season to end to start watching. The show looks great, but the writers are swinging for the fences every minute of every episode, seemingly unaware that when you swing big all the time, you miss big many times. In the news, there’s art all over the city of Rochester that was put their by an artist who, it turns out, is a horrible monster. Bummer. Also in the news, bunch of tax evading rich people have benevolently ponied up over a billion dollars to rebuild the cathedral at Notre Dame, regardless of the fact that the Catholic Church is a giant, wealthy land-holding corporation. Also, the church is insured. Insurance can pay to rebuild. If rich people want to help, maybe they could just stop avoiding taxation so hard. Closing things up, MIT economist, Jonathan Gruber, has written a book called “Jump-Starting America.” In his book he asserts that Rochester is a city primed to be a great city in the future. Cory thinks that’s ridiculous, but Stacey thinks Mr. Gruber might be on to something. The book, “Jump-Starting America,” is available on Audible, so expect Stacey to have read it by the next episode of AirWreckRadio! AirWreckRadio: Did we miss something?

 S7E41 Death and Turbo Taxes! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 44:41

On this episode of AirWreckRadio a church in France dies for our sins while three churches burn in Louisiana because some racist sheriff raised a racist son who thought burning black people’s churches would, I don’t know… show ’em? It’s pretty ridiculous, and nobody is talking about why that cop still has his job, or what we can to about white terrorists because we’re all too busy watching some humpback’s bell-tower be destroyed by lowest-bidder capitalism. AirWreckRadio: Maybe a bit hungover this morning!

 S7E40 Cruel to be Kind | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 43:18

Hey everybody! Here is a sweet new episode of AirWreckRadio!

 S7E39 Signs, Signs, Everywhere the Signs! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 46:43

On this Episode of AirWreckRadio, Stacey sees the signs! While taking in the air on afternoon, he noticed his neighbor had put up a sign in his yard. That sign says “Divide New York,” advocating for the separation on New York City from the rest of the State. Agog, Stacey wonders who his neighbor thinks paid for most of the subsidies that that keep him in his home. In the news, Anti-vaccers are just the worse, and in NYC they have now been offered the opportunity to pay cash for their idiocy! After a measles outbreak, mayor Rich-Pants MacGee has banned un-vaccinated people from the public, threatening a $1,000 fine for violators. Unfortunately, this happens to effect an community of ultra-orthodox Jewish people, who’s religion forbids vaccination. Here at AirWreckRadio, we think that’s tough cookies. Get Vaccinated. Also in the news: Bank of America has decided that if you work for them, you will be paid no less than $20/hour and receive good benefits. That’s great! Also, that’s going to provide Bank of America with a ton of new investment capital via their employee’s direct deposit accounts, the balance of which can be leveraged by the bank more than a dozen times over! Oh boy! Closing things up, the media machine is doing their best to de-legitimize left leaning candidates. Fortunately, the best they can do is accuse Bernie Sanders of being a millionaire now, and therefor somehow illegitimate. Way to swing for the fences, New York Times! AirWreckRadio: We’re getting too old for this Sh*t!

 S7E38 Capitalism: The Opposite of Love | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 50:29

On this episode of AirWreckRadio the boys kick things of with the time-honored tradition of screwing things up! After a little bit of technical difficulty (technically, this stuff is difficult), they get things back on the rails… In the news: The news stinks, and people are dying because they can’t afford cheap to produce drugs like insulin. Why? Stacey has some thoughts on the matter. It’s not that capitalism is evil, it’s just that it doesn’t care about individuals, even when those individuals make up the majority of the human race. It’s real scary, because when you begin to get ground up by the machine, you also become invisible. It’s the most terrible thing that happens to most people, and it’s not even done with malicious intent. It’s done out of apathy. Closing things up, …well, that’s really it. Once Stacey got going, he went until there was no time left. Enjoy! AirWreckRadio: A show with the confidence of two mediocre white men!

 S7E37 Our Virtue Signal Has Been On For Like, 3 Miles Since We Turned Left! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 43:24

On this episode of AirWreckRadio, it’s MaxFun Drive time again! We’re not actually associated with them, but Stacey sure does want you to give $10 to them in his name, so he can get those sweet, sweet pins! Go to MaxFun.com/Donate and give $10/ month so he can get those pins! After that, it’s time to get nerdy! Cory’s DM asked Cory’s D&D character to save the Cartwright Inn! Also, Stacey was trying to buy a female merchant mini, and was upset to find that the Pathfinder Female Merchant figure was holding drinks over her head. Vertue Signal Warning… In the News this week: Do you think the 45 President of the United States of America knows how to cook anything at all? We don’t. Actually in the News: Elizabeth Warren has come out strong with some promises for when she’s President! It’s true! She wants to break up the big internet companies and abolish the electoral college! Great! The house is on fire, and finally, a candidate wants to straighten-up the book shelves! Also in the Actual News: The President of the United States sat on his toilet all weekend, Tweeting 50 times about how his enemies are “losers.” He probably did all that hard work while eating boxed hamburders and doing the Denny’s menu word search in “jack-boot black” crayon. Closing things up, the boys bring you their new NPR bit, “Taking A Nap, With AirWreckRadio!” In that segment, “Metal-heads with Kazoos Drown Out West Borough Baptists Church At Capital” is the headline. Listen up for some good good news! AirWreckRadio: We’re fun at a party!

 S7E36 ¿Por Que No Los Dos? | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 27:07

On this episode of AirWreckRadio, the boys learn that our meritocracy…. IS A LIE! It’s true. The gatekeepers of capitalism go on and on about how all you’ve got to do is work hard, and the cream will rise to the top. Turn’s out that’s bullsplit! All you really need is rich parents who can bribe your mediocre hide into the nation’s top schools. We weren’t surprised either. Also this week, Representative Devin Nunes is a thin skinned little dumpster person! On top of that, he’s also a hypocrite! Mr. Nunes has filed a lawsuit against Twitter because he claims that some Twitter users use the service to harass and humiliate him. Poor fella. Now, what’s crazy about that is that Devin Nunes has voted over-and-over to prevent people from being able to sue gun makers, or gun retailers when people misuse their products. It’s almost as of Representative Devin Nunes is of weak moral fortitude. Closing things up: It turns out that there is one thing that lawmakers on both sides of the isle can agree on, here in New York, and that thing is Bingo! Apparently we’re not playing enough Bingo, and both Republicans and Democrats are circulating bills to address this most urgent issue. One bill is set to remove the age restriction on Bingoing, and another is set allow more places to host Bingo in the name of charity, or whatever. Bingo. That’s what we need right now. AirWreckRadio: We’re getting too old for this split!

 Really, Beto!? | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 17:42

On this episode of AirWreckRadio, Stacey kicks things off with some light kvetching about the NIMBYs in his neighborhood who are circulating a petition to stop a Dollar General store from being built on the sight of what is currently a dilapidated, unusable building. Why are they doing this? They say that it won’t match the area’s historical so-and-so. Having spent most of his life in this neighborhood, Stacey thinks his neighbors’ appeal to “history” is very misplaced. Also on this episode, Cory got a chance to sit down with the one and only, @TheRealBetoORourke to ask him just what the heck he thinks he’s bringing to the Democratic Primaries leading up to the 2020 Presidential Election. His answers are very… enlightening. AirWreckRadio: You’d Beto listen if you know what’s good for you!

 S7E34 Of Means and Ends | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 45:30

On this episode of AirWreckRadio, Stacey saw a bumper sticker on somebody’s stupid pickup truck that was so idiotically racially insensitive that he just couldn’t wait to talk about how dumb some white folks are. In the news this week: The headline reads, “Black Lawmakers to Block Legalized Marijuana in N.Y. if Their Communities Don’t Benefit.” Hear at AirWreckRadio, we fully believe in legalization. Putting people in cages over marijuana, a plant that as Cory puts it, “can grow accidentally,” is absolutely immoral. Also, the war on drugs doesn’t work, unless it was designed to fill prisons, in which case, it’s been a stunning success. We know this. You know this. Black Lawmakers know this. So we ask, “why are black lawmakers willing to perpetuate a crime against humanity, one which unequivocally hurts black people more than white people, just to give an advantage to people of both color and means, over white people of means. Don’t get us wrong, we’re sick of only the rich, primarily white, investor-class reaping all of the direct financial gains that come from legalized marijuana, but we think that not putting poor people in jail, as well as the increased tax revenue are too valuable to be held hostage just to ensure a more democratized sharing of opportunity at the top. Closing things up… Nope. That’s pretty much it. AirWreckRadio: Who you gonna call!?

 S7E33 Trigger Warning/ All Fired Up! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 40:31

On this episode of AirWreckRadio Stacey’s on his own! Oh no! Continuing the trend of avoiding talking about the Trump “Administration,” Stacey dove into one of his favorite topics: guns! Really, the boys are both pro-gun, but they are also into common sense regulation. Speaking of common sense regulation, New York just passed a bunch of it, and now the more… er… enthusiastic segment of the pro-gun community got their cambers all jammed up. The cause of the excitement? The Democrat controlled State government made it a law that if you have guns and children in the same house, the guns have to be locked. It’s honestly a little shocking that that wasn’t already the law, but previous administrations in the state have been significantly more, well, funded by the NRA. And as we all know, the NRA would rather the guns be free and the children be locked up. Also, New York passed the “Red Flag Law,” which will give schools a way to get guns out of the homes of “high risk” children. Of course, Republicans wave their hands in the air and shout, “that won’t work,” without offering any evidence or alternative solutions. Meanwhile a quick look at gun violence in other States with similar legislation suggests that, yes. Red Flag Laws do indeed prevent gun violence. No gun, no gun violence. AirWreckRadio: The best words.

 S7E32 Who You Gonna Call? The NY State Attorney General’s Office! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 46:45

On this episode of AirWreckRadio the boys decide they aren’t going to talk about national politics. To prove it, they start off talking about all of the Democrats who are running for President in 2020! After that, some other host on WRFZ decided to go on ranting and raving on Facebook about how people who express empathy when asked their opinions are “snowflakes.” While he certainly has a right to feel that way, we think that makes him a big, dumb, doo-doo face. In the news, Stacey learned that a local gas station chain, QuickLee’s, is engaged in the illegal practice of forcing their minimum wage employees to pay back the cost of people driving off without paying for their gas. Just to be sure that this was, in fact, as illegal as it seems, Stacey called a Rochester labor attorney. Guess what? IT’S SUPER ILLEGAL TO FORCE EMPLOYEES TO PAY FOR LOSSES! After that, it was time to make a quick call to the New York State Attorney Generals Office to report a crime being committed by a corporate entity against its employees. You can help stop this immoral, illegal activity by calling the Attorney General’s Office at 1-800-771-7755. Closing things up, New York State Senator Rich Funke has sent out an update on his voting record so far this year, and it’s not as party-line as we’d expected! Listen in to find out how the Senator voted! Music this week features MC Frontalot! Get his new album, “Net Split,” March 8th wherever you get your music, or go to Frontalot.com for albums, tour dates and more! AirWreckRadio: Just a couple of beautiful and unique snowflakes spreading the word!

 S7E31 About That Thing… | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 43:21

This week on AirWreckRadio the boys share their thoughts on a but of drama that happened at the radio station this week. I’m not gonna type it all out. Go ahead and have a listen. Big thanks to the folks at RochesterFreeRadio.com who allowed us to air our dissenting opinion without interference or censorship on this hot issue. In the news: Rochester City Councilman Adam McFadden has found himself at the center of some hot new fraud allegations! Oh boy! Corrupt local officials? Yeah, we couldn’t believe it either! Closing things up, President Trump thinks he invented the 4th of July, so I guess that’s gonna be true for some people now! AirWreckRadio: Between us and a cup of coffee, you’d have a dime in 1940’s money!

 S7E30 Who’s These MoFos!? | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1:00:02

This Episode of AirWreckRadio features special guests, Pennsylvanian Modern Folk band, Buffalo Rose! AirWreckRadio: We’d fight that bear!

 S7E29 Strawman Says… | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 12:26

On this episode of AirWreckRadio Stacey got an email from New York State Senator Rich Funke that was chuck full of rhetoric about how prisoners aren’t people like the rest of us are people. The boys spent most of the episode talking about how wrong Republicans are about that particular opinion, and believe us, this is a party line issue. Music this week is from the band Buffalo Rose, and you can get their music wherever you get your music! AirWreckRadio: Created Equal.
