Kellyanne & the Fake Facts
Saturday Feb 18, 2017
Saturday Feb 18, 2017
Truth not Trump is the topic this episode. As the most ubiquitous member of Trump's lie machine, I'll focus on the Mistress of Misdirection Kellyanne Conway. There are some encouraging trends emerging and we'll take a brief look at some of them.
The victims of the Bowling Green Massacre. Truth. Predictions from Fantasy World.
Tabloids: The Nation's Subconscious. Factchecking Fredericks.
Kellyanne and Jake Tapper (CNN).
Skillful evasion. The media wakes up. Kleptocracy USA.
Trump's aspiration: Vladimir Putin: Most powerful man in the world.
Talk about fake news. Haters in the Hate-Hole. Spicer babble.

President Carnage
Wednesday Feb 08, 2017
Wednesday Feb 08, 2017
Not as jaded as I feared, because when confronted by the introduction of a blatant authoritarian kleptocracy, I do feel quite disappointed in many of my fellow Americans. More than likely we'll survive this final kick from the dying horse of amoral capitalism.
President Carnage. The hypnotist's spinning wheel. What the hell is going on?
Alternative facts and fake news. The Bully (thanks Masha Geseen).
A warning has been issued. Ay.
Narcissistic personality disorder. The use of vagueness.
Illusion. Punish the powerless.
Bomb and ban policy. Charlie the Plumber. Power.
Let common-sense talk on the phone. Take heart and look to the sun.
Thanks to ABC and NPR for the audio clips.

There Will Be No Message
Saturday Nov 26, 2016
Saturday Nov 26, 2016
I said no Trump talk until after the the election and I honored that. Now, however, I might have something to say.
Trump supporters yelling from the side of the road. Drain The Swamp.
President-elect Trump's supporters and appointees. Feeling sullied and dejected.
Alternate choices: an anti-vaxxr or an idiot? St. Pete Protesters (thanks to Sean Kinane- WMNF)
Crush your voice. Outgoing Obama and his misinformation. They are our country.
Kiss my ass. Potential disaster. I am your voice. There will be no message.
I am too old. I get what I want. Hail victory!

State Your Point
Monday Oct 31, 2016
Monday Oct 31, 2016
A Foundscape with a point or two to make.
Communicator notification. Try your call later. Police lives matter. Police helicopters matter. Our party.
Emergency message. Remove yourself. Help! Incredibly excited. End my father. Undecided.
Help the wealthiest. Someone's trying to legalize pot in Florida. Photo-ops with the governor. Stop it.

Camping in Gun Country

Tuesday Oct 18, 2016
Camping in North Florida this weekend provided an abundance of material. I use it in roughly chronological order and end with a collage of some of the more interesting sounds.
Way down upon the Ichetucknee river. Hermine kindling. Forest bath interrupted by an armadillo.
How do they shoot up all those road signs in Gun Country? There will be beans. Birds, kids, dogs and gunshots.
Sounds of cooperation. Closing collage.

All Wrong Words
Sunday Oct 02, 2016
Sunday Oct 02, 2016
After this episode, I'm swearing off Trump as source material until after the election. Too easy and too disturbing. I do get to talk about truth and bullshit, quote H.L. Mencken and explore man's contribution to climate change.
Don't want to talk about Trump. Some in the media care about truth. My personal Trump history. The Gullibles.
Simple Americans. President Moron. Trump truths. The liar and the bullshitter. Democracy is broken.
Climate change and murder. Understanding Trump supporters, Racist, sexist, homophobic. Down the drain.

Making a Better Zero
Friday Sep 02, 2016
Friday Sep 02, 2016
I am a registered Republican and, this being primary season, I've been inundated by political phone calls. I decided to take stuff that could have been annoying and turned it into a podcast.
Scandal/Lie/Scandal. Gary Democrat. Help. How stupid. Rachel the Republican. Didn't leave the right number.
Sorry I'm not Nokia. Tatyana. Making a better zero. Republicans For Property. Vote for me.
Stay Republican and cause difficulties voting. Congressman Grayson: What America needs right now. Gary Property Appraiser.
Fight. Michelle the Republican. Goodbye.

America Has Lost
Tuesday Aug 16, 2016
Tuesday Aug 16, 2016
The Democratic National Convention gets run through the mind thing and comes out sounding quite similar to the Republican convention. Featuring John Allen, Hillary Clinton and Barack "Democrat" Obama.
You will fear us. President ISIS. Unruly together we can all crash. She knows criminals: Donald Trump.
America has lost. Fear Clinton's election. Fight people. Gary Democrat soundscape.

Losing Reality
Saturday Aug 06, 2016
Saturday Aug 06, 2016
Reality denied at the Circle K. Baseball bat deaths. People kill people. Suicide. Fracking earthquakes (facts don’t matter).
Denial of causation. What ever happened to pollution? Trump supporters true motivation.

Law and Order
Wednesday Jul 27, 2016
Wednesday Jul 27, 2016
I tried to avoid it, but the Republican National Convention was omnipresent. This is one of my takes on it.
Get on your knees. Fighting. Stop it! Assured with violence. LAW. What difference does it make?
Hillary Clinton must be punished. America must be punished. You're the problem. No Hillary, no problem.
Radical vision.
(Special thanks to Diamond Reynolds for her recording of the officers who detained her.)
Cast of characters (roughly in order): Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani, Pam Bondi, Rick Scott, Marco Rubio, Chris Christie, Laura Ingraham, a little Bernie and Hillary sprinkled in.
