Live from the back of a rental car on I-85, after being CrowdStruck in the airport. Covering some of the events of the week, but mainly skipping over the things everyone else is talking about to create space to talk about things that shook our ficus a little.

This week, in the week of Independence Day in the US, and Elections in the UK: Tractors pulling out of DEI while doing DEI https://twitter.com/TractorSupply/status/1806417863885902217/photo/1   The history of boycotts Self-censoring ERR Bound, handcuffed and forced to listen to a radio show.

I asked Ace yesterday "why do we do this?". "1. Fun. 2. Fun. 3. Trying out new material for our talks. Which is why sometimes it's rubbish...." This week, we cover: Pigeons in airports and frogs in backpacks; Snakes on paddle boards and Ace's pumpkin patch; Donating blood rather than tweeting opinions; Bolshie ≠ Bullshitty; Mail Jumpers (not Male Jumpers) A single bearing from America to India AI...

This week, we talk about loneliness and social isolation, and what we can do about it. And then, the usual combination of rants about everything from nationalizing Uber, hot dogs and chestnuts, Ace's weird relationship with turkeys, drowning influencers while birthing stars, delegating vs abdicating, fake waterfalls and access to nature. And it turns out the Amazonian folk have a healthier relatio...

Ace and Scott a little punchy this week as they wade through... software inflation and white men inflation on AI boards; Spotify content with cheap content; EV trucks may kill you, but it will be clean power - from Texas; Mexican women rise to the top, while Modi is moderated in India; Statecraft and stagecraft at D-Day commemorations; Paratrooper passport checks; Leaf blowers blow (esp for bikers...

I mean, we thought it was funny.

Not Kicking the Kicker Enough Things Can Only Get Wetter (British Elections) Promiscuous Mice Turbulent Coverage , and emergency landings (not in Wrexham , Jamaica would be better). Formenting Azerbaijanis The Women with the Tanks and Ships Rescue the (Nigerian) Hostag...

Alligators and Parrots... Lactation Cookies... Unbearable Portals, the Confederates are back... free speech = free speech magnification?... hipster dog owners... naming names... coppers with ray guns, and other stories...

College protests... (meaningful or lame?)... broken guitars... trust in low-paid workers... soldier payroll hacks... Girl Scouts banned book nooks... AI twins... and much to exclaim about. Sort of Safe For Work, Not Safe for Home (if your kids are around).

Live(ish) from the montañas of Montana, another misadventure with your hosts Flotsam and Jetsam. This week, a full hour (sorry, maybe?) of the usual... On the docket: Adorable Little Airport Ladies Parqhorses Pickle Rick Bomb Balloons Aid & TikTok Industrialized digital exploitation Google on going faster Rules and regs of brawling in the North Dennett v.

A good one.

This week... Suitcase curling, cheese, Trtls, middle seats, marijuana rats and marijuana, invisible nukes, the art of doing nothing, and other things. PS Scott was wrong about the Oscars. He’ll say sorry next week. But he’s still angry about Ken.

This week we wander around the subjects of: Little Ace. Doubling the black population of Montana. "Prompt Engineering as a new career option. Roe vs Wade driving the French constitution. AI for protection of children. What is World Class (through motorcycle maintenance). German leaky lines. Non-obligatory running. What's too political? A little gratitude for the women that dominate our world.

Lingerie coffee shops. Scott looks ridiculous in a trucker hat, but has joined the parole board. AT&T goes dead, then makes things worse. Does 40% count? Re-Elect Ace For Mayor. Clicky iPhones. Toxic empathy. When a bench is a couch. Self-Immolation at protest. Issues with Sinek and wooly shoes. Ace does Girl Dinners.

This is a Sarah McLachlan appreciation episode, among other things.

As the title suggests, we shouldn't have a radio show. But we do, and this week it packs the punch you've come to expect with the shenanigans you choose to endure. All topics are fair game and we cover quite the range... Scott asks for proof he's not American. Ace makes a case for Sex Ed. Are Black folks allowed in country music? Drones, tanks, and how Call of Duty is now official battle readiness...

Scott returns from the desert to have his beer confiscated. Ace learns that cities in Texas aren’t interchangeable. We tackle whether Taylor Swift is worst thing to happen to the NFL. (Hint: Not even by a long shot. Btw, congrats on your first Super Bowl appearance, Taylor. Thanks for listening.) Other specific thoughts on random topics: Universal Basic Income Easy side hustles? Culture tools Monu...

For our first non-invisible episode in a while, we talk about Ace not having emergency surgery, whether left-handedness is chosen, gloating about DeSantis, dead Brits and seemingly alive AI fashion models, Ace losing batteries, and making highway signs not-funny. All with a (very) cold open.

In our last* transmission from the studio at Canvas, Scott and Ace: wonder if they have to be as mad as everyone expects us to be about Open AI admit they maybe made a bad call on a thing talk about campfires as a function of innovation give ERR listeners permission to NOT be rested after the holidays If you're stateside and need fodder for your Thanksgiving road trip or an excuse to hide from fes...

No, we haven't been kidnapped. We're back. For the last ever episode to be recorded at Canvas studios (don't fear, we have new studios under construction). This week we're arguing about... Casino (Battle) Royale. The low knowledge bar for having a strong opinion. Let's switch Veterans Day with Memorial Day. Pre-meal or pretentious? Tools for tools: Meeting Agendas.
