    2025/10/19
    In SOTW 1.0, the gang was young, dumb, and invincible ... or so they thought. Fast-forward to their 40s, and their bodies are staging a full-scale rebellion. Jay has a Frankenstein knee, Meredith's running shoes are mostly decorative, and Ty faints at the sight of his own hemoglobin. This week, they talk about what "self-care" looks like when your warranty's expired—and the fine art of selective neglect. Their health plan may be questionable, but it's still better than whatever Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is selling. 0:00:00 - Intro (SOTW doesn't suck, Meredith's conservatorship hell, Jay got a boo-boo on his knee) 0:23:15 - Sounds of the Week: Trump explicitly attacking free speechBrewers Karen 0:46:37 - Aging bodies and healthcare Songs: "Broken, Beat & Scarred" by Metallica "My Shit's Fucked Up" by Warren Zevon "Life is Killing Me" by Type O Negative Notes: Secretary of State Approves Redistricting Referendum for Circulation (0:10:57) Missouri says 100K signatures to repeal voting map aren't valid.

    Episode 51: Cartography of Control
    2025/10/05
    Every ten years, the census hands politicians a fresh box of crayons—and somehow the "art project" always ends up looking like a crime scene. Despite the next census not due until 2030, the redistricting free-for-all is already underway: Trump pushing Republican states to redraw early, Democrats striking back, and the whole country caught in a cartographic cage match. This week, Geoff Gerling returns to help Ty and Jay tackle everyone's favorite "sexy" political scandal: gerrymandering. The gang breaks down what's happening, why it's happening, and how those squiggly lines on a map quietly decide who holds power. 0:00:00 - Intro (Dropping out of news and social media, Jay's in extreme Halloween mode, the left is beating the right at something, sports betting revisited) 0:18:20 - Sounds of the Week: Jimmy Kimmel Fired-Was it Right & Should the FCC have Gotten InvolvedTrump, Hegseth address rare gathering of U.S. military leaders from around the world 0:44:28 - Gerrymandering Songs: "Great Balls of Fire" by Jerry Lee Lewis"My Song" by Jerry Cantrell"Jerry Was a Racecar Driver" by Primus Notes: GWAR gets viral pushback for fake killing Elon Musk and Trump onstage (0:04:46)The movie Ty is talking about is Victor Crowley, also known as Hatchet IV (0:06:37) Left-Wing Terrorism and Political Violence in the United States: What the Data Tells Us (0:09:30)Americans increasingly see legal sports betting as a bad thing for society and sports (0:11:15)ABC Pulls Jimmy Kimmel Off Air for Charlie Kirk Comments After F.C.C.
