| Two Weeks | 22 Oct 2024 | 01:18:06 | |
Donald Trump is using the McDonald's stunt and the 60 Minute attacks to make sure the news media isn't focused on his enemy within threat and his refusal to show up on 60 Minutes.

We're on vacation so we're replaying some of our favorite interviews from 2023. New shows return starting January 2. I talked with Tim Russ, Tuvok from Voyager and Picard, twice this year. So for my second talk with Tim, it was almost entirely politics and, it turns out, Tim is smart as hell with a killer sense of humor. You should listen to this one.

We're on vacation so we're replaying some of our favorite interviews from 2023. New shows return starting January 2.

| Interview Replay: Musician KingCyborg | 20 Dec 2023 | 00:57:00 | |
We're on vacation so we're replaying some of our favorite interviews from 2023. New shows return starting January 2. One of my favorite indie musicians to emerge in 2023 was the inimitable KingCyborg. Her trippy, unique, soulful music is unlike anything I've heard. And the story of her personal journey from persecution in West Africa to the verge of superstardom is equally as compelling as her music itself. So this is my March 2023 talk with KingCyborg about life, love, music, and salvation.
