Rough Rider President Teddy Roosevelt is outraged at "coarsened fopoodle, dunderhead coxcomb" Donald J. Trump speaking to his AI doppelganger; while RFK, Jr. says it's official that Tylenol use during pregnancy is a sure-fire path to autism for the baby, despite all facts to the contrary. 

Right-wing racists say the quiet part out loud, from Minnesota rep to Megyn Kelly screeching her Karen Hate; Mahmdani freezes rent for some joyous New Yorkers; Trump tries to put the king-baby kibosh on a shockingly bipartisan housing act (that even Susan Collins supported). Packed with Wonkette wit, snarkiness on the reporting side; with a nice smattering of our original satire.

The algae-laden Reflecting Pool in Washington, DC takes to the microphone to share his tale of outrage and woe; vintage sci-fi legend Robert Silverberg's "The Happy Unfortunate" wraps up with wild violence and a final decision on the part of our hero, genetically-modified and socially ostracized "Spacer," Rolf Dekker.

In another hilarious take-down by Wonkette.com, we hear Pete Hegseth's first-person bro-diary about his like, totally insane level of fitness and lethality; then an NPR spoof in which the Secretary of War (sic or sick) and El Presidente go to war together; and Part 3 of the wry, Bladerunner-esque sci-fi by Robert Silverberg--published in 1957 but relevant to this day, "The Happy Unfortunate." Plus...

Wtf is going on at CBS? Wonkette breaks down the devolution of legacy media. Then, we hear about USDA lead pasture pastor Brooke Rollins being sued by some of her employees (the USDA has over 100,000 of them) for force-feeding them her brand of Christianity. Finally, our affectionate and snarky spoof of NPR breaking news, and other absurdity.

In an encouraging (and somewhat surprising) proof of life and possessing some form of integrity, ABC won't take Trump Admin pressure about content lying down (from Kamala to Kimmel); then New Tantrums from Old Cranks: now they're losing their minds about a vax for babies that's worked incredibly well since 1915. Great reporting from Wonkette.com, plus our original comedy, satire and music.

Doktor Zoom of  wonkette.com  unpacks the recent Graham Platner campaign as former Maine Governor Janet Mills drops out; the sturm, the drang and the baggage.

Coral reefs need people like Dr. David Vaughan, a marine biologist who's devoted his life to studying the mysteries of coral reefs and developing methods to restore them to their former grandeur. These vital ecosystems, relied upon by 1 billion humans and serving as the most biodiverse places on earth, face extinction due to warming oceans, more acidic and more polluted oceans as well as other thr...

Philippe is the grandson of legendary oce...

Maine and New Hampshire punched above their weight with attendance of 33-50,000 estimated at No Kings protests in dozens of towns and cities. We interview attendees and catch the vibe and ambience of the events; the passion and commitment of the people showing up on a cold and windy day to exercise their First Amendment rights and speak out against the regime.

After "Jack Schmear" of NPR provides some Iran-related news, we hear a comprehensive analysis with lots of in-situ audio of the tribulations, trials and triumph of rapper Afroman as he sees seven Adams County deputies in court in response to their brutal, poorly-fact-checked home invasion. Then, we learn of the full scope of Trump internet-trolling reporters and the Prime Minister of Japan in pers...

The year: 1954. The venue: Galaxy Science Fiction Magazine. Why it matters: this might as well be a story about our times, as everyone from the FBI to the Dept. of Defense (War?) to four-star generals are absolutely losing their, uh, stuff, when a family who's a bit different asks for less discrimination. Later, Trump reveals his wokeness and the new Ployota Pretense auto is advertised.

In "A Bad Day for Sales," (classic sci-fi), a robot in Times Square hawks his product, but what happens after a missile strike? 50's sci-fi being all prescient and stuff again. Then, a send-up of "The Moth Radio Hour," the rural-Maine based "Myth Radio Hour." Plus satirical/parody-laden commercials.

Democrats held a hearing on the minor issue of ICE goons murdering and maiming U.S. citizens. Predictably, Republicans skipped it to avoid catching "empathy," leaving survivors to recount tales of state-sponsored "ethnic cleansing" to an empty GOP bench. Turns out, being shot five times is just "standard procedure" now.  "Czar" Tom Homan demands Minnesota surrender unconvicted immigrants. Trump’s...

The vindictive, trumped-up arrest of Don Lemon and another journalist; Bovino bows out while Homan elbows in; flat-earthers provide insight to some weaknesses in our educational system.

Political sci-fi by the great Robert Silverberg, as relevant and apt today as when it was published in 1956, produced here as audio theater with sfx and music. Then, Wonkette.com provides commentary on the theoretical internal bleeding of ICE agent who murdered a Minnesota woman; and the tale of brainwashed Americans who impulsively join the Russian army with the best of intentions and worst of ou...
