The Elephants in the Room

On today’s episode the elephants discuss Nikki Haley announcing that she will be announcing that she will be running for the republican nomination for president. We talk about her path to victory which is slim, but exists, and why people who have little chance of winning jump into the race. Then it’s on to Trump v. DeSantis and the lines of attack Trump is testing against DeSantis and why the most...

On today’s episode the elephants go all in on the only interesting news story of the weekend - the GOP primary beginning to take shape. Trump hit the road to unveil his teams in New Hampshire and South Carolina and while doing so took aim at Governor DeSantis, who is rumored to be closing in on a decision on whether to run (he’s leaning yes). The elephants look at the weaknesses of some of the rum...

On today’s episode the elephants discuss the latest cancel culture victim, Ms. Kara Lynne, who was fired from her job for the crime of being excited for the Harry Potter video game and following conservative commentators after a trans activist named Purple Tinker complained to her employer. Remember, as a conservative you don’t cause offense with your actions, you cause offense by existing and the...

On today’s episode the elephants chat about the latest round of documents found in Biden’s house in Delaware, this time after a 13 hour search conducted by the FBI. The truly shocking thing here is that the Biden legal team didn’t clean this up before the FBI came knocking! After that we talk about Aretha Franklin getting canceled, the M&M spokescandies being shelved, and the RNC chair fight t...

On today’s episode the elephants tear into the Department of Justice for its complete farce of an investigation in Joe Biden’s “mishandling” of classified documents. Then its on top a smattering of topics. The tech layoffs have commenced and the pain is a reminder that there is no such thing as loyalty in the corporate world. Then, a chat about Olivia Dunne, the LSU gymnast who is the most followe...

On today’s episode the elephants are back! Technical troubles caused the Monday episode to be scrapped, but have no fear as the elephants center the show around the overwhelming sense of conformity we have in our society. Pressure to fit in is more like pressure to be as liberal as possible. The DOJ is the perfect exhibit of this, where they didn’t trust Trump’s lawyers to return all the documents...

On today’s episode the elephants dive right into the breaking news that President Joe Biden had been storing classified documents at a “think tank” bought and paid for by Chinese Government affiliated persons and entities. After giggling about the idea of a Biden think tank the elephants call for an immediate investigation and wonder how the press would be wondering if it was “Russia” and “Mar-a-L...

On today’s episode the elephants go extra extra long. First, its nonsense talk at the beginning about college football. Then, President Biden stole classified information from the government. When will he be charged with a crime? The elephants believe this is the make or break moment for the DOJ - treat Biden like Trump or simply declare your partisan leanings. After that it's a celebration of the...

On today’s episode the elephants spend a lot of time discussing the Speaker vote. What is going on, who is doing what, what the ultimate goal is, and spend zero time predicting the outcome. These are mostly meaningless political fights that people try to make money off of and whoever becomes Speaker will inevitably let us all down so don’t worry, be happy! No, seriously, don’t let the media bother...

On today’s episode the elephants kick off the new year by trying to talk about the news which is tough to get through. Speaker of the House fights? Trump’s taxes? We don’t like the government and we don’t like paying taxes. After this struggle the elephants move on to abortion laws and then a discussion about new year's resolutions. Are they worth it? Or are they just lies we tell ourselves.

On today’s episode the elephants talk about the George Santos saga, how someone is able to completely lie about their entire life and get elected to Congress, and why he should feel right at home with the cast of characters we call our elected representatives. After that its catching up on the FTX saga. His gal ratted on him to the Feds, so what’s next for SBF? Next, Southwest Airlines is remindin...

On today’s episode the elephants laugh about the liberal hysteria over the Trump tax returns, but also ask one simple question - how can we pay as little in taxes as Trump! Then the elephants chat about the spending bill (boring) and the FTX saga (not boring). After that its a chat about Christmas movies and a minor debate about a particular film that is definitely one of the more contentious Chri...

On today’s episode the elephants make up for the lack of a Friday episode by keeping it light and quick. First up, the January 6th commission is finally wrapping up which is nice because no one cares about it, then its a detour to the elephant’s shopping trip today where they encountered overpriced paper products.  Then its on to Trump’s NFT business which is both successful and off putting....

On today’s episode the elephants jump back and forth among a variety of topics. A brief chat about the stupidity of the budget negotiations going on right now and why the GOP needs to quit our spending addiction when we gain power next. Speaking of power, 2024 is looming and no one is excited for a Biden-Trump rematch…but they still remain more popular than Kamala! Then they make fun of the FTX cr...

On today’s episode the elephants hit on a lot. First off, its fantasy politics season, where strategists and writers spend too much time coming up with terrible political ideas that will never happen. A 3rd party candidate in 2024? A moderate/compromise Speaker of the House? President Tim Scott? We break down why all 3, while fun to talk about, are nothing more than nonsense (mostly). Then it's on...

On today’s episode the elephants begin by discussing Christmas presents and their anxiety when it comes to certain parts of the Christmas season, but also how it used to be which was more fun but also more time consuming. Then it was on to the news - Sinema goes Indy, Twitter was and still is evil, and Hollywood is baffled as to why no one likes their movies anymore. Then, what’s your favorite che...

On today’s episode the elephants lament the Hershel Walker loss in Georgia, what it means and doesn’t mean going forward, what needs to happen to prevent future Oz and Walker disasters, and if this means anything for 2024. Then it's a quick chat about Tom Cotton taking a liberal CEO to task and the new Biden 401K rules that are forcing people to take control of their retirement. Finally - it's on...

On today’s episode the elephants discuss the saga of their Christmas tree, the pricing insanity of at one tree lot, the threat of going artificial, and eventual success at a Home Depot. Then its a brief chat about Georgia and Trump before a dive into a hodgepodge of cultural issues. The teacher who thinks grammar is racist, the “word of the year”, another attack on religious freedom and free speec...

On today’s episode the elephants discuss the breaking news out of Twitter, where Elon Musk is exposing to the world what we all knew - Twitter suppressed the Hunter Biden story at the behest of the Biden campaign. It just reinforces the point that social media is evil, news organizations aren’t far behind, and that we have a misinformation problem when it comes mainstream media. Then its on to rep...

On today’s episode the elephants get off the rails fast with a discussion on Christmas decorations, when to put them up, and their favorite store - the Goodwill Outlet (The Bins). Next it's on to the first DeSantis hit piece where we find out liberals hate him. The elephants debate the topic of “likeability” as being important and then pivot to a menagerie of topics. The explosion of “buy now, pay...

On today’s episode the elephants cover all the news that they missed over the break…which was nothing. Then it's on to what happened today: Maricopa county proved itself to be an absolute joke today by certifying its “election”, Georgia is still happening, Trump went to dinner and the press got upset, words are worse than sticks and stones, Jesus is now trans, and the Mac and Cheese lawsuit. You’r...

On today’s episode the elephants dig into the Trump announcement, his viability as a candidate, who will run against him, and a look back at the previous nomination cycles and the key dates to look for. Then its a hodgepodge of news - student loans apparently cannot be paid off by the president, San Francisco is defeating crime by giving money to transexuals, Scrabble has a few questionable new wo...

The Elephants return from a short break to cover the fallout from the election. From blaming Trump (wrong) to blaming McConnell (also wrong) to the worrisome trend among young women in this country voting lock-step with democrats. Then it's on to 2024 because it starts tonight with Trump’s announcement.

You know what this episode is about. A final poll round-up. Some predictions. Key races to look for. 100% optimism. 0% nonsense. The elephants cover it all, from Washington to New Hampshire to Trump’s announcement that he’s going to make an announcement on November 15th. It’s a dive into not just where the country is voting, but the future battlegrounds of the GOP.

On today’s episode the elephants go looooong after a loooong week. But don’t worry - it’s a big hit of optimism as the elephants chat about the polls, the trends, and where we see hope and where we see some…well, some real optimism. Then it’s a look at the media already writing obituaries and why this is a common tactic the media uses to get us to let our guard down. Don’t drop your hands! After t...
