Bonus Podcast - How Fox News Covered The Third Indictment of Donald J. Trump
This bonus episode is a breakdown of Fox News hosts freaking out about the third criminal indictment of Donald J. Trump. Jesse Watters has what seem like a series of breakdowns, Jessica Tarlov manages to get some good points out while being shouted over. Laura Ingraham is the most worked up I've seen her in ages. Stephen Miller appeared to be near his breaking point. It's a fun little journey down the rabbit hole of Fox News on a bad day. This episode covers the network from The Five until The Ingraham Angle.

Podcast #74 - Fox News: All Hunter Biden All the Time, Cocaine Sharks and RFK Jr. is Our Democrat!
This episode deals with some darker themes of slavery and the Holocaust. It's not as lighthearted as most of my episodes. I do include a bit about cocaine sharks though. Something went wrong with the original file so this is my second attempt at uploading this. Sorry for any double posts. This is a public episode.

Podcast #73 - Jesse Watters' Mom, More Hunter Biden Nonsense, and a Country Song Got Canceled.
Fox News spent an inordinate amount of time on a Country music story. The network was still obsessed with Hunter Biden and a small bag of cocaine that was found in the White House. While the rest of the world burned Fox didn't even really mention the climate crisis. I briefly sing in this...no joke...and I do my usual goofy voices. This is a public episode.

Podcast #72 - Biden Battles a Beach Chair, More Cocaine Capers and Summer is Hot!
Biden battled with a beach chair! According to Fox News several big Democratic donors want to replace Biden as their party's nominee. Fox didn't offer any evidence for this but they insisted it was true. The cocaine story won't die. Climate change isn't happening and the King of England was horribly snubbed even though he wasn't. Chris Christie rips into Trump. Clutch Your Pearls is back! I imitate Judge Jeanine and make fun of Vivek Ramaswamy. This is a public episode.

Podcast #70 - Hunter Biden The Dream that Won't Die, Fox Loves RFK Jr. and SCOTUS the Destroyer of Liberals
This episode is a bit of a sampler as Fox was a bit all over the place last week. Hunter Biden was the main story again. The various SCOTUS rulings were explored with Judge Jeanine Pirro pretty much voicing how most conservatives view affirmative action. I do a number of impressions in this one. I also introduce the first double bogus expert in the history of Fox News! This is a public episode.

Podcast #69 - Fox News: Hunter Biden IS the Most Important Story in the World Dammit!
In this episode I explore how Fox News is fully committed to every possible scandal involving Hunter Biden. It is the never-ending story for Fox, the "But her emails 2.0." Some the network's hosts actually contradict their own propaganda. Rachel Campos-Duffy thought there was too much evidence against him. I also mock Jesse Watters for not realizing that Florida has a homeless problem. I do few brief impressions in this one a couple show up right at the end. This is a public episode.

BONUS Podcast: How Fox News Covered the Wagner Group Rebellion in Russia
This episode is dedicated to how Fox News avoided covering the Wager Group rebellion in Russia. Fox News was determined to report on Hunter Biden even when Russia might have been on the brink of a civil war, a coup or at least a violent clash between two armies. I make fun of Donald Trump Jr. and his illustrious fiancee. Rachel Campos-Duffy brings the crazy as she claims that NATO paid the Wagner group while K.T. McFarland implies it could have been a red flag while also agreeing with Campos-Duffy?!?! This is a public episode.
