Skewers, it’s an election year, and you know what that means: time to gin up some immigration panics!

| Weekly Skews 6/28/22 – Trump Treason Tantrum | 29 Jun 2022 | 01:00:08 | |
After today’s bombshell packed January 6 Committee Hearing, it sure does seem like Donald Trump had every intention of leading the charge on the Capitol.

Tuesday Skewsday, baby. | |||
| Weekly Skews 6/14/22 – Y’all Like Committee Hearings? | 15 Jun 2022 | 00:59:48 | |
Well after a few weeks of disruption caused by Trae’s trip across the pond, it’s once again a regular Skewsday, and what better subject for our return than the ongoing January 6 Committee hearings. Bombshells aplenty, but where will it all ultimately lead? Hell if we know, but we’ll hazard a guess or two. Also a backlog of dumbasses, and more. Join us. | |||
| Weekly Skews 5/17/22 – Replacement Theory | 18 May 2022 | 00:59:51 | |

| Skews 5/10/22 – Roe Roundup | 11 May 2022 | 00:58:57 | |
In the week since the big SCOTUS leak, GOP lawmakers have been fully engaged in a very uncharacteristic endeavor: working around the clock. The problem of course is that what they are working toward is the passing of a myriad of horrifically draconian laws aimed at destroying the reproductive rights of women. So that checks out. | |||
| Skews 5/03/22 – End of Roe | 04 May 2022 | 00:59:39 | |
Well y'all can probably guess the topic of conversation...the Met Gala. No, we will of course be talking about the earth-shaking SCOTUS leak and the implications thereof. For this we will be joined by TN-7 congressional candidate Odessa Kelly. Join us. | |||

| Weekly Skews 4/19/22 – Manly Man Talk | 20 Apr 2022 | 01:00:07 | |
This week Tucker Carlson was brave enough to ask the question burning inside every American’s mind: If you ain’t tannin’ your balls up, can you really call yourself a man? Let’s discuss. Also, the wildly unqualified judge who struck down the mask mandate, an update on perhaps the very saddest of January 6ers, and more! | |||
| Weekly Skews 4/12/22 – Somebody’s Gotta Pay (Not the Rich Tho) | 13 Apr 2022 | 00:58:53 | |
It’s no secret that our country’s richest people LOVE not paying taxes. Like even more than sailing and watching racehorses have sex and stuff. But fret not, the IRS is addressing the issue…by auditing poor people at a rate five times exceeding that of the rich. So that’s good. | |||
| Weekly Skews - 6/11/24 – Hunter Biden Convicted | 12 Jun 2024 | 00:59:53 | |
Well Skewers, everyone else is talking about it so we reckon we should too: Hunter Biden has been convicted of three felony gun charges related to lying on a background check. Which is of course a massive surprise considering his father Joe Biden personally operates a famously rigged and partisan justice system. What does it all mean? We’ll try and figure it out. | |||
| Weekly Skews 4/5/22 - Fox VS Mouse | 06 Apr 2022 | 00:59:23 | |

It's Skewsday, and on tonight's show we'll dive into the ever-mounting pile of evidence against Trump RE January 6th, and the ever-maddening amount of NOTHING BEING DONE ABOUT IT. Also Heil-on-Wheels Cawthorn said some orgy stuff and of course...The Slap. Join us! | |||
| Weekly Skews 3/22/22 – We’re Sorry, Judge Jackson (Woooo) | 23 Mar 2022 | 00:59:49 | |
On tonight’s Skews, we go further into the epic straw-grasping of the GOP during Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's confirmation hearing. We got some good dumbassery for ya too. Join us. | |||
| Skews 3/15/22 – Gaslighting Gas Prices | 16 Mar 2022 | 00:59:33 | |
Tonight we engage in every red-blooded Americans favorite pursuit: hollerin’ about gas prices. Oil, that is. Black gold. Texas tea. There’s a lot of debate about what’s really going on there and just how much blame Joe Biden should take for it all, so let’s get into it (and plenty of other stuff too, of course). | |||
| Skews 3/08/22 – Keepin’ Up with Crazy | 09 Mar 2022 | 00:59:42 | |
Lot of conservative craziness tonight, as they continue their classroom crusades against…well, just about everything. Also Trump has some interesting/hilariously stupid thoughts on Ukraine, and.much more! | |||

Tonight we pre-game for the State of the Union address (not by partying or anything, just by running our mouths, as is tradition), and also get into all the latest from Ukraine. And yes, there will be dumbasses. Join us. | |||
| Weekly Skews 2/22/22 – That’s A Lot of Twos | 23 Feb 2022 | 01:01:54 | |
Twosday=Skewsday, y'all. Join me and Smart Mark at 5:00 PT(on my pages) for a veritable cavalcade of lunatic politicians: one claims her opponents have small wieners, another gets drunk and yells at children, Ted Cruz blames violent crimes on innocent people going free, and more. | |||
| Weekly Skews 2/15/22 – Ram Ranch Truckers | 16 Feb 2022 | 01:00:31 | |
It seems a new theme has emerged from the big Canadian Trucker Protest, and that theme sounds a lot like gay cowboy porno metal (seriously). Also, momentum is gaining to stop stock trading in Congress, which is a change so obviously necessary it’s no wonder it hasn’t happened yet. And more! | |||
| Weekly Skews 2/08/22 – Q vs. the Monarch (Butterfly) | 09 Feb 2022 | 00:58:36 | |
We don’t necessarily make it a point to highlight a new insane right wing conspiracy theory every week, but damn if they don’t keep making em up. Tonight: butterflies, Mexicans, Mexican butterflies, a wall, death threats, fraud, and more! Also the biggest Bitcoin caper in history, and it’s truly wild perpetrators. Holler at it. | |||
| Weekly Skews 2/01/22 – Suffer the Furry Children | 02 Feb 2022 | 00:59:53 | |
Alright so to hear conservatives tell it, the radical left has made a bunch of high school kids think they’re animals and demand dog bowls and litter boxes and whatnot. Which is as hilarious as it is not at all true, as per usual. Also, cops in small town AL are policing for profit. So that’s fun. Join us! | |||
| Weekly Skews - 6/04/24 – Felon Hard Times | 05 Jun 2024 | 01:00:40 | |
Tonight we discuss, what else, last weeks big verdict: 34 felony convictions for Donald Trump, as well as the discourse surrounding it since from both the right (unhinged, flailing, hypocritical) and the left (basically nonexistent for some reason). Also Fauci’s big day and a bunch of other fun stuff too. Join us. | |||
| Weekly Skews 1/25/22 – Candy-Coated Controversy | 26 Jan 2022 | 00:59:04 | |
This week we talk about the latest in an endless line of laughably absurd and completely made up conservative controversies: sexy candy and reverse racism. These people are truly somethin’ else. Also “World War III” was trending yesterday, so that’s good. All that and more on this Skewsday. | |||
| Weekly Skews 1/18/22 – Voting Rights and MLK | 19 Jan 2022 | 01:00:06 | |
This week we discuss the obstacles faced by the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, namely Republicans along with frequent disappointments Sinema and Manchin, as well as their apparent love for MLK in spite of this. Also plenty of wild dumbassery going on, as always. Join us! | |||
| Weekly Skews 1/11/22 – “Number One” COVID Cure | 12 Jan 2022 | 00:59:46 | |
This week we discuss the latest bleeding-edge COVID treatments emerging from the right, which apparently is taking a whole bunch of Prozac and then drinking pee. Are you feeling owned yet, libs? And speaking of owned, Ted Cruz gets taken behind the woodshed, Fauci throws down, and more. | |||
| Weekly Skews 1/4/22 – January 6 Anniversary (Almost) | 05 Jan 2022 | 01:00:04 | |

This week we take a look at the Voltron of dumbasses assembling to take down Roe, the overwhelmingly negative media coverage of Joe Biden, and the comically unexpected pet cause of Marjorie Taylor Greene: criminal justice reform! (Naturally it’s worse and dumber than it sounds.) And more! | |||
| Weekly Skews 11/30/21 – Crankin Up the Crazy | 01 Dec 2021 | 00:59:32 | |
We are back and right back at it with some dumbassery deep dives: Mike Flynn turns on Q, Lauren Boebert workshops some new racism material, and a Florida Congressional race that’s insane even by Florida standards (dog bites! Russian hit squads! Roger Stone in drag!). Let’s do it. | |||
| Weekly Skews 11/16/21 – Dog Whistles Abound | 17 Nov 2021 | 01:00:00 | |
Tonight Mark returns to talk with Trae about everything from the Rittenhouse circus/trial to the hot new tactic sweeping the anti-vax scene (which involves...getting vaccinated?) to myriad other dumbasseries.

Tonight we talk about the hotly contested Virginia gubernatorial race, which has been a hell of a thing, even by 2021 standards.
