  • When “Just Follow the Law” Stops Making Sense
    Jan 21 2026

    In this episode of Hey Idiots, Jessica Michelle Singleton wades into uncomfortable territory with honesty, humor, and nuance. What happens when the systems we’re told to trust stop making sense—and no one wants to talk about it?

    From recent ICE actions in Minneapolis to the dangers of blind partisanship, media fear-mongering, and government overreach, Jessica breaks down why “just follow the law” isn’t the mic-drop argument people think it is. It’s a thoughtful, funny, and occasionally dark conversation about civil liberties, critical thinking, and why staying apolitical doesn’t mean staying silent.

    Heavy topics, sharp jokes, and a reminder that laughing doesn’t mean you aren’t paying attention.

  • Monkeys on the Loose, Praying to Shrek, and Why I Can’t Watch the News Anymore
    Jan 21 2026

    Hey Idiots!


    This episode recorded live LAST week and put up late is absolute chaos — in the best way.

    We’re talking news burnout, why I’ve officially tapped out of mainstream media, and how trying to stay “informed” nearly broke my brain. From government spin and political theater to the realization that critical thinking is apparently optional now, I try (and fail) to keep it light.

    Then things get weird:

    Monkeys are on the loose in St. Louis (not from the zoo)

    • A woman prayed to a Shrek statue thinking it was Buddha for four years

    • A naked woman in Louisiana attacked police because she was “trying to be a mermaid”

    • The G7 summit was moved because of a White House UFC event

    • And yes, my mom is in the background commenting on everything

    Plus, a life update you didn’t see coming: I’m starting professional puppeteer training at the Jim Henson Carriage House and questioning every creative choice I’ve ever made.

    It’s comedy, commentary, absurd headlines, and existential dread — with puppets, Shrek, and monkeys somehow tying it all together.
