Discussing Colbert and Kimmel recently taken it to Trump and whether or not they were just in their statements.  Next the aura of the Confederacy still being a talking point after a lady was killed in Charlottesville and more protesting in B...

Oh it is a good week according to White Nationalist trump supporters.  They came out in droves to the university of Virginia in Charlottesville.  All because a Civil War monument was being removed from the school grounds.  KKK, Skinheads, Nazi sympathizers and White Nationalist (aka ALT-Right) descended on the school grounds the night before and were dressed like yuppie college kids carrying Tiki...

Two special little guests join the show with Sean Vincent and Jason Kull.  They happen to be Mark's children and they fulfill a wish to come on their dads show and talk.  After that, the show kicks into high gear welcoming Sean and diving head first into the Robert Mueller FBI investigation of Trump and Russia. Mueller impaneled a Grand Jury  and Mark thinks this protects him against any chance th...

Also, movies come up and the...

Anthony Rogers is not new to controversy.  In the past few years he has made some significant statements on social media regarding Michael Brown and the Ferguson situation from 2014.  He has been back and forth with angry promoters kicking him off paid comedy gigs. AND NOW....Anthony, a previous guest on the Q, is in the sights of the Riverfront Times.  The RFT is a local news magazine in the St....

Donald Trump recently went to the G20 and in our opinion did not represent our country as well as he could.  Jason Kull joins Mark to discuss Ivanka sitting in on G20 meeting on behalf her dad, and his awkward and lonely vibe he gave off. This leads to a report from an Australian journalist covering the G20 that reported on Trump in the most scathing way possible.  The guys play the clip and proce...

CRAZY CHEAP FIREWORKS is the PROUD sponsor of this weeks show. Mark and Producer Bobby are back with a vengeance and Donald Trump makes it all the sweeter.  This week Donald tee'd off on two MSNBC news hosts about their personal lives and took pot shots at Mika Brzezinski for a face lift that was personal and a problem for her.  Then called them good people.  Mark and Bobby discuss the impact of T...

Mark Bland, Producer Bobby and Jason Kull are not novices to the world.  Having been around the block a few times, the guys are pretty mentally grounded in right and wrong.  But the first topic of the show this week tests the moral high ground of the guys as a whole.   Otto Warmbier is a US college student that was in North Korea for 17 months before he was brought home this past week.  Otto was i...

Jason Kull and Mark Bland are back after a hiatus and the first thing up is the James Comey Testimony to the Senate Intelligence Committee. James rolled, bobbed and weaved to the committee.  Did he say anything that would incriminate Trump, probably not. What about anything to help Trump...probably not.  In all the two guys will discuss what you should have taken from the testimony in general. Aft...

Let's just face facts.  Having Allies in War is strategically important to the success of a country in a War. And with the world on edge and arms discussions at the highest levels since the Cold War, it would only benefit the USA to have good allies. Unfortunately when you hand the keys to the country, to a man that clearly has no couthe and tends to go out of his way to attack and degrade the lea...

Mark Bland the host of the Q has been completely out of touch with why people in the South, a major win point for Trump, voted so blindly.  Always believing if he figured out the reasoning, that he could apply it across the board and get a better picture of how things happened.  Then the makers of SERIAL, the podcast, did a new one called "S-Town".  S-Town was brought to Mark's attention by the we...

James Comey has been fired by Trump and Mark is all hot and bothered by the decision because who will they replace him with?  Brandon Travis and Jason Kull join the show to discuss and focus on the corrupt tendencies of Donald Trump these past 115 days.  But Mark has a bigger message on the plate and we don't think it would go over well nationally.  Saturday Night Live has done a fantastic job wit...

France has made a decision that couldn't come at a better time.  Marie Le Pen, considered the Donald Trump of the election, was sent packing with her tail between her legs after centrist and logical thinker Emanuel Macron won in the hotly contested French election.  This was a dagger to the hearts of hard core Right wing media and supporters who thought after Brexit and Trump, their ship had come...

Another rousing week of Trump and the stupid was so high Mark couldn't bare to talk too much Trump and his first 100 days in office.  Eventually Mark gets around to discussing it but not before his guest Dan Buffa, a known St. Louis sports writer and movie reviewer, jumps in to lighten the mood. First up is discussions on the St. Louis Blues and the predictions of how deep into the playoffs these...

Did he really say that???? Yep. Sean Spicer stuck his foot in his mouth again and called concentration camps, "Holocaust Centers".  But the funny thing is that it's not event he biggest story of the week.  More crazy Trump things happened and Mark, Bobby and Jason dive in head first to all of them.   Trump decided to go and drop the MOAB in Afghanistan and now the world is on edge because its the...

School Shootings, Bombing Syria and Governors giving up their seats of power, it's all in a normal week for one Donald J. Trump and for the Q staff to dissect.  First up, Jason Kull and Producer Bobby slip back into the seats of producer and co-host to help Mark break down all the fun.  But it's the school shooting that opens the eyes of Mark and the team to where they are eventually gonna go with...

Producer Bobby returns on this late episode of the Q.  Trump has been trying to downplay this Russia stuff and it's not going well at all.  Now they are finding new evidence of his potential collusion during his campaign and he is in full retreat mode.

It's been a few years since the Mike Brown/Ferguson incident and the family claimed that Mike would never rob a store.  But the only evidence that was ever presented was a security tape from the store the morning of the shooting.  It showed Mike manhandling a store owner/employee after he was told he couldn't have some cigarillos.  So everyone assumed, here is this thug that is trying to knock ove...

Trump can't stop himself. He is a detriment to our country and himself at times.  On this episode we break down the NEXT (the guys refuse to say newest because it seems 2-3 things happen NEW each day) big situation with him...Supposedly Obama (former not involved in World politics right now at ALL) wire tapped Trump Towers to spy on Trump during the 2016 election and campaign.  Everyone in the wor...

Well another week and we can't stress enough how outlandish the Trump presidency has become.  Spending more than an entire year worth of travel of the previous president, in one month or fake Swedish security people coming on FOX news to try and bolster the already dismal BS story from years earlier....it's just another day in the Trump Presidency. So as usual Mark and Jason Kull have to discuss t...
