[Ep 785] Meeple Are Not People [1:35:54] Recorded: Sat, 2022-Jun-25 UTC Published: Mon, 2022-Jun-27 22:02 UTC |
This week on Curmudgeon's Corner Sam goes solo after events conspired multiple times to prevent a normal show. Sam of course discusses the aftermath of the Dobbs decision overriding Roe. He also discusses January 6th developments. And gives a quick report on attending the 2022 Washington State Democratic Convention. Oh. And Sam was actually polled. On his wife's race. Which was neat.

[Ep 782] Bump In Spikes [1:57:19] Recorded: Fri, 2022-Jun-03 UTC Published: Mon, 2022-Jun-06 01:58 UTC |
On this week's Curmudgeon's Corner, Sam and Ivan decided there were no "big" topics they wanted to talk about, so they talked about a bunch of "smaller" things. That doesn't mean they are less important of course. Although maybe some of them are. They talked about game consoles and boring podcasts. They talked about a movie and the latest Covid news. And about the evolving reaction and consequences of working from home. Oh, and they did talk about guns again. So there is that.
