In this episode we cover Indigenous People’s Day and an update from our Potter award winner from Episode 10. We also talk about a Judge sentenced to prison for selling kids to the juvenile detention center, an Air Force dental tech accused of being demon possessed and a witch. Then we look at why women on top are going to hell and another failed apocalypse. Jim Baker also tells us about satanic temples in Planned Parenthood. And of course the Mr. Potter award.

This week we talk about a few different items. From a fake bomb to a revisit of Nipplegate and a “controversial theory” Links from the show https://www.facebook.com/bobs.sign “First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.” Our yakking and of course the Potter award.
