TS83: Brain Dump

Heeeee's baaaack..... yes friends, ScottyJ has entered the spiderhole and visited for a week. He also ended up on three podcasts in a week- I think that's a record! He did find time to talk a little politics with me, too. :-)  We couldn't decide on a topic, so we asked Twitter and Facebook friends. The show is several of the responses. LONG show- and hour and 23 minutes. I debated splitting it into two shows, then decided if you need a break, you can pause the show and finish at a late ...

TS81: It's Ok When They Do It

A month! No, I have not pod-faded into the ether... but the big thing keeping me from podcasting was a really bad cold killing my voice and my nose for almost 3 weeks! So I'm back, and grabbed my partner in crime Dave Tobkin across the internets for a chat.  Yeah, it's all one big liberal whine in this one, so that's your warning. ;-)  There has been so much craziness about Obama and what he *could* do to the country, we both needed to vent and ask one big question: Why is it ok w ...

TS73: Confusionism

My guest for the show is ScottyJ, and we take a serious turn this time and talk religion. It's such an important topic, and so very important to so many people there was no other way to discuss it other than seriously. Ran a little long on this one, a bit over an hour, but wanted to get it all in one episode. Hope you enjoy, and please understand that the intent here is simply to question, and not to offend.

TS Special Edition: Dani Goes To A Tea Party

Happy Tax Day! I'm sure everyone knows about all the wonderful Tea Parties taking place across the US (which regardless of what anyone says about the mainstream media, still received way more attention than ANY Iraq War protest). There happened to be a gathering here in Gilbert, so I went to see what all the hub-bub was about. Yesterday I wrote about the Tea Parties and my curiosity about where all these protesters were the past 8 years. So today I decided to be a bystander and gather some ...

TS Special Edition: Same Sex Marriage

Not a long show- but something I had to share. This is an interview from today's Democracy Now with a 12-year old girl who testified in Vermont supporting her mother's right to marry her partner. Vermont overturned the governor's veto, therefore same sex marriage will become legal in yet another state.This topic is very important to me personally, and this interview is exactly what we need more of- hearing from the voices of those who are in loving families of same-sex parents. This will al ...

Please do not adjust your internet- yes it's another show! I do have a very special thanks to give for making this show possible, and that's Senator John McCain.
