The Dumbest Story of the Week is self-evident. The 24-hour news cycle generates a lot of content, and not all of it is worth the digital ink on which it isn't printed. The show is hosted by longtime radio and podcast producer and host Joe Armstrong. Don't be a dummy.Copyright 2026 政治・政府 政治学

  • Episode 84: INTERVIEW with David Lazarus – Can The World Cup Save The Struggling Alcohol Industry, Allbirds Goes AI, The Donald J. Trump Reflecting Pool Goes Green, and more
    2026/06/19
    KTLA’s Business Reporter, the unstoppable David Lazarus, joins The Dumbest Story of the Week to talk about whether the rowdy and thirsty World Cup drinkers can save the slumping alcohol industry. Shoe company Allbirds re-hatches as Smartbird, rebrands as an AI infrastructure company, and investors love it. What? And after spending what could have been as much as $16 million dollars of taxpayer money to paint the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool what Donald Trump called ‘American Flag Blue,’ it is currently filled with algae and more of a deep Kermit green. Maybe we should rename it after Trump. We can use the letters that they just knocked off The Kennedy Center. The jokes just write themselves.

  • Episode 83: Sayonara Spencer Pratt, All Elections That MAGA Loses Are Rigged, Ballmaxxing, Sleepy Trump Curses The Knicks, Ahhhhhhh Salesmen! (Rush Is Back), Assassinations Get JD Vance In The Mood, The Best Worst Burger In America, and more
    2026/06/12
    Republican Spencer Pratt gets bounced in a city where Democrats outnumber Republicans by more than two-to-one, but the system is obviously rigged. Heads we win, tails you lose! Everyone knows that all elections that MAGA loses are rigged. Have you ever wanted to have a scrotum the size of a grapefruit? If the answer is yes, you’re in luck, because something called ‘Ballmaxxing’ exists. Donald Trump shows up at an NBA Finals game in New York, gets booed by Knicks fans, and then falls asleep in a luxury box. Ahhhhhhh salesmen! (Rush is back). Bizarrely, assassinations get JD Vance in the mood, and that’s not creepy at all. The best worst burger in America. Is anyone surprised that Pete Hegseth isn’t good at history? And so much more.

  • Episode 82: The GOP Has No Pride In Pride, No Love For Billy Joel, 60 Minutes Sucks Now, Trump Is As Healthy As An 80-Year Old Horse, Ayn Rand Gets A Selfish Museum, George Santos (Illegally) Bets On Himself, Birds Choke Their Chickens, and more
    2026/06/06
    Republicans have no pride in Pride. The New York Times has no love for Billy Joel, but New York Times readers apparently do. The Ayn Rand Museum of Selfishness is coming. Everyone except Vanilla Ice dropped out of the America 250 Concerts but they all got cancelled anyway. 60 Minutes fires Scott Pelley and that means that it sucks now. Trump is as healthy as an 80-year-old horse, and I have a number of bridges to sell you. Scientists discover that birds choke their chickens. Gender reveal parties are stupid, especially when they get people killed. Trump is on a losing streak. George Santos (Illegally) bets on himself and may land himself back in the big house for doing so. Pete Hegseth whitewashes the U.S. military, and so much more.
