Idiots Podcast

Elon Musk, Big Fat People, Smokers, Trivia from Hell

In this Episode, Kevin is replaced by Joe and we got into some fantastic headlines that included legalizing marijuana, Colin Kapernick, Police Violence and much more. Tiny House Progress: Outbuildings.ca (our tiny house inspiration) NY Times Op-Ed from inside the white house?  Kaepernick and Russell Wilson when they used to be considered future stars. Great advice from Angry Cops on Youtube. Daniel Shaver gunned down by cops in Arizona: NJ Couple helped homeless couple and then decided the money was better left with them. We ran through some topics in our lightning round (that was anything but fast). Steve’s magical editing skills brought our lightning round down to a manageable level. * Slow drivers * Legalizing marijuana * Illegal immigrant kids Episode 7 closed out with a trivia contest that had Joe wiping the floor with Bob. Steve broke his streak when Bob voted for himself as THE BIGGEST IDIOT! I think Bob just wanted the trophy on his desk. Guess what? We have some merchandise! It’s not for sale, (only an idiot would want to make money off of this) but we do have merch.

Episode 6 is a good one (I asked Steve). This episode is chock full of headlines and interesting news. Sam joined us for another episode and Kevin shared a little too much. Scallop wars in the UK: Louis CK is back. Will he be back to his old antics. https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/11/09/563116374/multiple-women-say-louis-c-k-masturbated-in-front-of-them-new-york-times-reports Waffle House Rumbles N-Word Drama Kevin’s Gonorrhea http://worryfreehealth.com/2018/08/29/man-loses-left-arm-after-contracting-flesh-eating-bacteria-infection-from-sushi/ More to come.

Episode 5 of the Idiot’s podcast opens with Steve wanting to coin a name for our user(s). Kevin and Bob aren’t so sure. Steve discusses the story of a former beauty queen who hired a hitman to kill her husband. Kevin discusses the book from Aaron Hernandez that includes personal letters to his kids and friends. Bob discusses new Russian hacking attempts on conservative organizations that advocated for tougher policies against Russia. https://edition.cnn.com/2018/08/21/politics/microsoft-russia-american-politicians/index.html Bob, who appears to be stuck on all things Russia, brings up the war games being planned by Russia this year (Vostok 2018). https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/russia-war-games-2018-military-vostok-china-japan-trump-a8501676.html Steve discusses a Hilton Head, SC woman who tried to protect her dog from an alligator attack on the 13th green. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/hilton-head-alligator-attack-south-carolina-woman-walking-dog-killed-by-alligator-today-2018-08-20/’ Kevin and Bob discuss their Ocular Migraines. Ever have a prism in your eye? Look it up… https://www.allaboutvision.com/conditions/ocular-migraine.htm A rousing discussion regarding the stripping of security clearances follows. Kevin and Steve are on team Trump while Bob tries to provide a sound reason why this is a potential national security issue and not just a partisan political move. To complete this episode, we play a movie trivia game where Kevin and Bob fail wildly. We both decided to blame Steve for this poor showing and voted him the “Biggest Idiot” of episode 5.

Kevin rejoined the podcast today after having to hustle out to Amherst for a traffic ticket. We welcomed Kevin (and his pink shoelaces back with open arms). We commented on the news of the day that included the bridge collapse in Genoa Italy (half century old bridge) Along with the highjacking of the Sea-Tac Q400 plane in Seattle.  Kevin shared a very funny Chevy Malibu parody commercial (see below) Steve discussed the statement from NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo that America was never “great” before. Dad beats man to death for following his daughter into bathroom. The crew played an interesting game of “Dead or Alive”. The game was a 50/50 contest that challenge the contestants (Steve and Kevin) to guess if the named celebrity was dead or alive. Even though Kevin (a millennial) didn’t know many of the people in question, he proved that his guesswork could still outwit his opponent. Here is our “Dead or Alive” list (as of 08/14/2018, of course) Abe Vigoda – Dead 2016 — Hal Holbrook – Barney Miller – Alive Adam Duritz – Counting Crows – Alive Dave Grohl – Foo Fighters – Alive David Carradine – Dead – 2009 Garry Shandling – Dead 2016 Sean Connery – Alive Sage Stallone – Sylvester Stallone’s son – Dead 2012 Tommy Lasorda – Alive Doc Severinsen – Tonight show band – Alive Margot Kidder – Dead 2018 Tony Bennett – Alive – Age 92 James Earl Jones – Alive Raquel Welch – Alive Chuck Knox – Dead 2018 Phil Hartman – Dead Kevin Nealon – Alive Gary Coleman – Dead Todd Bridges – Alive Mel Brooks – Alive Marv Levy – Alive Erin Moran – Happy Days – Dead 2018 Pat Morita – Dead 2005 Harold Ramis – Dead – 2014 Bob Dole – Politician – Alive Clint Eastwood – Actor/director – Alive Norman Lear – Creator of All in the Family among other. – Alive Chris Cornell – Soundgarden – Dead 2017

Thanks to Sam and Joe, Kevin’s seat was filled during episode 3 of The Idiot’s Podcast. We cover some of the headlines of the day including: A near shark attack in Wellfleet, MA (thanks Sam) A spy in the US Embassy in Moscow Melania’s parents getting their US citizenship. Some bits from our movie trivia game. Why So Serious: You can’t handle the trutgh:

Episode 2 features a round of current events along with quite a banter about “merit based” immigration. Did you hear the story about the deadly dog saliva? How about the Monopoly scam? Download the latest “Idiots Podcast” to hear about it all.

Episode 1 of The Idiots Podcast The episode kicks off with some brief discussion about our new podcast and heads right into the news of the day. Did you know that Megan Markle has to go to bed after the queen? How about the British guy who lost a ton of weight by employing diet and exercise. Wow. Who knew. There is some hot tariff talk between Bob and Kevin with Steve chiming in and sounding a little like a teen beauty pageant contestant. Bob is perplexed at the fact that these were top headlines on Fox news on the day after an audio tape of our president was released. A quiz to see who knows details about President Trump follows with Bob winning a close one thanks to Kevin’s slow buzzer. At the end of the show, we take a vote to see who is the “Biggest Idiot” of the episode. 1:Steve, 2:Bob, 3:Kevin. You can see how Kevin and Steve voted. Looks like Steve is the biggest idiot.
