The Trilateral Troika

This week on the Troika we complete our short, interruption-filled foray into "The Lavender Scare," a time in America where the US government used laws, and moral and nationalistic fear-mongering to preclude a certain group of people from being safe, employed, or legally American. No, not now, but more like 30-50 years ago. But, also now, yes. Enjoy while we still can :(

Happy Pride month, Happy Juneteenth! This week on the Troika we begin a multi-part discussion about "The Lavender Scare,' when several government officials(some of which who were gay themselves) decided that gay government employees who were not as powerful as them should be fired because how dare they! Or something like that - Steve explains it better if the other Steve would stop talking. Enjoy!

This week on the Troika we meander through the topic of Howard Hughes, intelligent nepo baby, dater of stars, bedder of bombshells, madman with OCD in isolation and lacking help while surrounded by the obsequious worship of his massive wealth by a cadre of sycophants. We also discuss, comfortable cigarettes. Enjoy?!

This week we discuss yet another militia lunatic, Milton William Cooper, also known as Bill Cooper. We also discuss Pete Rose, because this was supposed to be the Pete Rose episode, but Steve and Ryan said I couldn't call it that. Oh well, enjoy!

This week we conclude our foray into Steamboat disasters, much to Steve's chagrin. Which Steve you may ask? Well, you'll just have to figure that out for yourself. Enjoy!

This week the Troika discuss...Steamboat disasters. We're starting with the disaster of the Lucy Walker. Also, the other Steve took 4/20 way too seriously and started the night before and barely made it through this episode. At the end of the day, however, the content did not suffer...much. Enjoy!

This week the Troika finish their stumbling, incoherent (other than when Steve is giving actual fats) investigation into Andrew Jackson. We also discuss boofing the primordial light - don't ask me, these things just happen. Enjoy.

We continue our multi-part examination of Andrew Jackson. The other Steve gets really excited about the knife show, politics and grifting. Philly shows up again, and more, enjoy.

This week the Troika discuss Andrew Jackson, the well known......American president. We also discuss Reba, the Strawberry Festival in Plant City which consists of strawberries, deep fryers, and shaker rope philosophy marms, enjoy!

This week we conclude our foray into Barney and Betty Hill. We also discuss hockey games, unfortunately we have to talk politics, weed, and The Other Steve fucks up a James Baldwin quote again (Perpetually, you dingbat.) Enjoy!

Hello, it's already February and this week the Troika discuss Barney and Betty Hill, UFO see-ers of the highest order (it's hard to prove they weren't full of it). We also discuss overreacting in parking lots, LIVE FROM THE ER, RYAN, and more, enjoy.

This week we discuss Alessandro Cagliostro, historical Italian occultist and magician who also happened to be an imposter and a charlatan, if Wikipedia is any barometer. Anyway, we also discuss how to properly attack a cigarette butt, Balsamic dressing, Top gun, and so on. Enjoy?! Non è poi così male

Happy New Year, this week the Troika discuss the Gulf Breeze UFO "incident." We also discuss dolphin intelligence, Cat Stevens naming dynamics, bird flu, and more, enjoy!

Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas! Happy Honda Days, Happy December to Remember Sales Event to those who celebrate. We're back with the conclusion (finally, sheesh) on Jojo Bro-tito. We bullshit for awhile and conclude on his death, because if not he'd be 132 years old and frightening. Enjoy!

Welcome back - this week we continue our discussion into Josip Broz Tito, we also discuss a certain shooting, insurance, and the other Steve is entirely too baked. Enjoy.

Happy Thanksgiving (for those who celebrate). This week the Troika Tackle Tito, that is, Josip Broz Tito, the communist revolutionary leader of Yugoslavia until his death in 1980. Steve assures us that he had no hand in Tito's Handmade Vodka, but we're not buying it, nor the vodka for that matter. We also discuss his favorite concert, the Warped Tour, if he had only lived to see it. Enjoy.

This week we conclude our foray into Demons - we could go on, but this is probably enough. In addition we cover Alex Jones, Bible Code people, and so on. Enjoy....? Yes. There is no intro, blame shrinkflation.

BOO! Happy Halloween all! We are episode 138(Yes, I love the Misfits) The Troika is back this week with a Deep Dive Into Demons(album title rights reserved.) WE begin with some of the older of the bunch, the Judaic. We also discuss Disney-scooter morality, Sonny Bono, Vlade Divac and more, enjoy!

This week we talk a bout the original hater, Philip J. Klass, a true pioneer in putting the UFO people in their place, sometimes? Anyway, we also discuss girth, scatback driving, and Steve goes on a mewling, rambling misunderstanding about crystal radios (that he did not edit, even though he feels bad he wasn't accurate)....enjoy? Enjoy.

This week the Troika discuss William Miller, a man who failed multiple times at predicting the end of the world, but succeeded wildly in convincing thousands of other people that they too many be able to predict the end of the world - sound familiar? We also discuss Coors Heavy, Ryan only flying first class, and more - enjoy??!!?!?!

This week the Troika complete their discussion against the notorious Vivian Vance, I mean, J. Edgar Hoover. We also discuss DELCO VALLEY accents yet again, right guard, Pauly Shore, and more...enjoy!

This week we begin a talk about the notorious, the infamous, original head of the FBI - J. Edgar Hoover. We also discuss morons that Ryan works with, slacks, and more, enjoy!

This week we talk about The Public Universal Friend, an American preacher who started their career after a severe illness, near-death experience, and reanimation as a genderless evangelist with a really cool name. Oh, and they also are technically the founder of the first religious movement in America - the "Society of Universal Friends." We also discuss Halloween, syrup, and more. Enjoy?????

Sorry for the time away - convention season! This week, we discuss Discontinued Olympic Sports. Ah yes, the roar of the crowd as a polo player whacks the ball with a giant mallet. The hush that descends As the tug-of-war between France and Venezuela commences. Enjoy?

This week we're talking the Klondike gold rush and a real varmint gangster, Soapy Smith. We also discuss current events regarding the geriatric executive branch, digging in Tallahassee and more, enjoy!
