  • Justin Timberlake Had A Pretty Bad Week (TSOTW - 2/3/2024)

    Justin Timberlake Had A Pretty Bad Week (TSOTW - 2/3/2024)
    Feb 4 2024
    Last week, Britney Spears fans played a prank on Justin Timberlake by streaming her 2011 song "Selfish" after the of a new song under the same name by her former boyfriend. So we use that as the inspiration for this edition of “The Story of The Week,” which doesn’t bring sexy back, but does dig up dirt with Spears, a very ‘selfish’ interruption of Dakota Johnson, and even going way back to Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction in 2004.

  • Matt Gaetz - The Story Of The Week For 1/26/2024

    Matt Gaetz - The Story Of The Week For 1/26/2024
    Jan 27 2024
    This week, the House Ethics Committee investigating Rep. Matt Gaetz has reached out to Joel Greenberg, a one-time close friend of Gaetz who was sentenced to 11 years in prison after pleading guilty to federal charges. The Committee also reached out to other new witnesses, much to the disdain of Gaetz. My commentary goes into the basics of the probe, how the investigation may have had a hand in the ousting of Rep. Kevin McCarthy as Speaker, and the deluge of our public officials being bad at public officiating and worse at working the TV camera and social media.

  • Israel Floods Hamas Tunnels - The Story OfThe Week For 12/16/2023

    Israel Floods Hamas Tunnels - The Story OfThe Week For 12/16/2023
    Dec 16 2023
    This week, the Israeli forces started testing flooding the Hamas tunnel network with seawater as a new attack tactic, knowing that the move could backfire in the long run as they don't know where the remaining hostages taken on October 7th are located. I am not the most significant resource on international armed conflict, but I am willing to put my signature on the words I put down in this episode.

  • Julianna Margulies & Susan Sarandon - The Story Of The Week For 12/9/2023

    Julianna Margulies & Susan Sarandon - The Story Of The Week For 12/9/2023
    Dec 9 2023
    Julianna Margulies and Susan Sarandon issued apologies over their recent controversial comments sparked by Israel-Hamas war. They spoke from different sides of the conflict but quickly backed down from their original passionate speech after a quick crisis and backlash. This week's commentary doesn't quite stick to the point, but it gives some perspective on why the growing conflict over our opinions of this conflict is a big deal.

  • Bobby Petrino - The Story Of The Week For 12/2/2023

    Bobby Petrino - The Story Of The Week For 12/2/2023
    Dec 2 2023
    Bobby Petrino is headed back to the University of Arkansas football program as its new Offensive Coordinator, about a decade after leaving the school after a sex scandal that was just enough to overshadow his winning record (barely). This week, I go into the back story of Petrino and why this new edition seems like a problem just for me and not a single member of the actual Razorback fan base.

  • Jessica Alba - The Story Of The Week For 11/25/2023

    Jessica Alba - The Story Of The Week For 11/25/2023
    Nov 26 2023
    Jessica Alba made an appearance on Bobbi Althoff's The Really Good Podcast. This interview sent the internet a buzz with the statements on Bobbi being a "6," Jessica being a "9," and a 26-year-old 6, is more attractive than a 42-year-old "9." As a 49-year-old...whatever, I take 20 minutes to rant about the silliness of this statement, how I would have said the same things 20 years ago, and how 77-year-old Dolly Pardon in a Dallas Cowboys' Cheerleaders Outfit on Thanksgiving proves us all wrong.

  • Marianne Williamson - The Story Of The Week For 11/18/2023

    Marianne Williamson - The Story Of The Week For 11/18/2023
    Nov 18 2023
    The title for this week's podcast is a swerve since I will discuss Marianne Williamson's viability to become the President of the United States in 2024. But I talk about all the people who have put their names and reputations on the line for the shot at the title of '47,' and none of them have a chance to shake off '46' or '45' (assuming '45' doesn't go to jail).

  • TikTok User Alford Lewis - The Story Of The Week For 11/4/2023

    TikTok User Alford Lewis - The Story Of The Week For 11/4/2023
    Nov 4 2023
    This week, I cover the thought process of allowing ‘boys to be boys’ per se in three different current news scenarios: a 19-year-old TikTok user named Alford Lewis who came under police investigation after getting caught punching random people at a local park for a social media stunt, an unnamed male high school student from New Jersey who used an artificial intelligence app to create pornographic images of his female classmates without their consent, and the recent letter sent to law schools across the nation asking the deans not to send antisemitic graduates to apply for jobs at prestige law firms.
