About this listen

 Butler vane and Axiom tackle the damn news together. First though, we catch up a little bit on the weather and some spectacular hijinx. From there we cover briefly the tenuous ceasefire agreement in Gaza. We pivot from that into a discussion of the Nobel peace prize and the new lady guaido on the block. Then we break down our thoughts on AI and its looming bubble before getting into one of our favorite dead horses, the ol' donkey itself: the Democratic Party. Zohran for mayor Inshallah! Our intro and outro theme music are from the song "Sardines" by the band Stella Starfox. You can find them on Apple Music and Spotify, and check out the full song here. https://youtu.be/9kF6N0oA0o4?si=wswiL3WoQ2HCM_AO Corrections and sources listed below: (0:37) FOLLOW @butlersghost https://bsky.app/profile/butlersghost.bsky.social (0:43) FOLLOW @pervertpirateparty https://bsky.app/profile/pervertpirateparty.bsky.social (1:31) PIC social media has sucked ever since 'the dress' (2:12) ARTICLE Science Direct - Auditory perception: Laurel and Yanny together at last https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0960982218307590 (3:04) ARTICLE Slate - We finally know why people saw 'the dress' differently https://slate.com/technology/2017/04/heres-why-people-saw-the-dress-differently.html (4:21) ARTICLE Scientific American - At the peak of hurricane season, the Atlantic is quiet: here's why https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/atlantic-hurricane-season-has-gone-quiet-heres-why/ (4:24) ARTICLE Britannica - Tropical storm Melissa dumps heavy rain on Haiti and the Dominican Republic https://www.britannica.com/news/168728/530ee68b7a5fd0fb96605b5ff12b8289 (5:02) LINK New York Post - full video of NYC lady yelling at ICE https://youtu.be/ZPA6oQeHb7w?si=FTcFKrbVwo3841Bi (9:10) WIKI Folsom Street Fair https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folsom_Street_Fair (10:20) SHOUTOUT Mr. S, famous San Francisco leather shop!
