This week there is a big elephant in the room that we must start talking about: Defeat. Host Rick Wilson stresses the importance of continuing to fight the corruption of Trump and his allies despite the electoral defeat. As the groundwork for authoritarianism is already being laid with Trump’s most recent cabinet selections, Rick reminds listeners who some of these people, such as Matt Gaetz and Tulsi Gabbard, really are.

Calling out the GOP's false mirage of doom and gloom as projected in early voting and polling this cycle, Rick addresses the gaslighting, fear-mongering GOP Bullsh*t Artists for who they are and what they're good for...producing complete and utter "bullsh*t." What is currently being put out in the media is not even close to the full picture. So, hang tight, happy warriors. Be like Churchill's fighter pilots during WWII. Show up. Vote. Do your duty. They can't stop ALL of us. Your country depends on you.
