DNR: Agent Provocateur
September 13, 2020 14:00With Rodbo away on a TOP SECRET mission, Tim Preuss, who says that he hates the ACLU, steps into the weekly conversation. And we take a look at the recent setto over the acceptance of Nick Sandman, yes that guy, at a college of which you most likely have never heard in a place that is beautiful, but apparently full of secret agents looking to provoke things. RodBo did leave us with his BEER of the WEEK, and Dave tried really hard to Binge-watch TV, any TV this week, while Tim doesn’t even w...
DNR: The AIRPLANE! Offense
September 06, 2020 21:36Forty years ago, a film changed the way we watch movies. Well… not really, but it did make us laugh. And we mean we laughed so hard we wet our pants and had to hold the popcorn bucket n front of our pants when we left the theater. Now along comes a couple of Gen Xers who have decided that brilliant film was “sexist, racist” and don’t forget about the naked breasts, of which there were two and only for a second. The real problem is that they don’t understand why it’s funny. Mostly because no...
I Know noting!
September 03, 2020 15:01The most powerful force in the entire universe is not gravity. It is fear. And fear is what drives people who actually do know the truth to instead say, “I know nothing!”
DNR: Baseball Joe
August 30, 2020 21:37Dave has had an epiphany. It turns out, thanks to a cutting edge TV ad, that he has learned that it is entirely Trump’s fault that baseball has been eviscerated. Thank the baseball gods, Joe Biden, “Baseball Joe,” is GOING TO BRING IT BACK!!!!! Which is pretty much all that is keeping Dave sane right now, because everything, even breathing, has now been labeled “racist.” Because you are listening to a white cis-gendered podcast, you too, are a racist. After Dave ventured down the Historical...
The Morning Breakfast Table
August 27, 2020 22:40It’s a special day around the Plausibly Live Studios, located in beautiful downtown Silverdale, WA. A Couple of days ago a discussion started and has now spilled over into today’s episode, in which Bill Mick joins Dave live from West “By Gawd” Virginia to talk about the 2020 election, the Conventions, Baseball, radio, and why anybody in their right mind would go to West “By Gawd” Virginia if they didn’t have to go. Once upon a time, this was the Central Valley’s breakfast table…
Unanswered Question
August 27, 2020 00:17As occasionally happens in this biz, my guest was not available today. Which kind of left me wondering about some things and the unanswered questions that I have about things like Kenosha… NOTE: My guest will be rescheduled for tomorrow, and Constitution Thursday will on Friday…

DNR: The Geometry of COVID-19
August 23, 2020 22:38Some pandemics have lasted as long as 238 years. It is beginning to feel like we’ve been that long – and more – already. It’s getting to Dave, and to Cami who has a problem with the Geometry of COVID-19. Never eat more anything that is almost as big as you. If you do, you will probably die or at least have a bad case of indigestion…
just Stop It
August 21, 2020 18:00Kamala Harris, the democratic Party nominee for Vice President (or, if you believe the conventional wisdom, President), is African-American. Every time you post on social Media that you "don't understand" how that can be since her mother is Indian and her father is Jamaican, you both look stupid and you do exactly what the left wants you to do - judge her by her skin color instead of her character. Stop it.
For What It's Worth
August 19, 2020 18:28At the Democratic Party Political last night – and no, I did not watch it, there was a musical presentation to close the night that can best be described as… well… it sounded like a great idea on paper, but it really lost something in the translation. That’s not really surprising to me. The 60s were a long time ago in a place far, far away, in a different era of thought and lyrical genius.
Manipulation
August 17, 2020 17:37A recent Facebook post features a digitally manipulated photo of a stellar nebula taken by the Hubble Telescope and claimed to be original and "baffling scientists" who "cannot explain it" but they are " un-ironically naming it Heaven's Gate." Meanwhile the manipulation of news about the USPS continues to go unchallenged and misunderstood...
DNR: The Cattle of Ra
August 17, 2020 03:06It’s really hot. Seriously hot. Despite that heat, Dave & Rod are still here with your weekly look at what’s going on, even if they can’t decide on a new name for the show. After months of pretending to go to school online, are students really learning anything? On The BINGE, Rod is introducing his young, innocent child to a tale of Superheroes being creepy and destructive. Dave is back to his old habits watching history and travel shows. This leads us to the HISTORICAL RABBIT HOLE of the W...
1876 - Polyamory is wrong!
August 13, 2020 20:30NOTE: Nothing in this show should be considered to be commentary in any way on the validity of LDS Theological claims. I am not LDS, and I do not accept the tenants of their faith. We are only looking at the historical facts, events, and influences of the fight over one aspect of LDS history, and its impact on the political happenings in the country post-1876. Do not send me any eMails complaining about anything you may have inferred about the theological positions of the LDS Church. They wil...
It Was Fear That First Made the Gods In The World
August 11, 2020 20:01The great Roman Poet, Statius, once wrote, “it was fear that first made the gods in the world.” Others would later expand and expound upon his observation, including Will Durant, Edward Gibbon, and (my favorite) Admiral Hyman Rickover. In all of those writings, we are warned and reminded that religion has its place in our history and our society, but that it is used far more often to control and abuse than to uplift and moralize. History shows us that religion is a force, but the good or bad...

DNR: Robust
August 09, 2020 21:34In Minsk today, there is a Presidential election going on. You didn’t know that? The current President is an “authoritarian style leader.” Or, if you prefer, a totalitarian dictator. His opponent is the wife of a jailed YouTube sensation. which explains why the whole place is shut down today. It also raises some questions about what would happen here if the election in November doesn’t go the way some people want it to go? Rodbo’s BEER of the WEEK is best defined as “robust.” Dave heads down...
DNR: Gut! (That's German for Good!"
August 04, 2020 03:14We’re late, but we’re here! Dave has a terrible secret about towels that will finally come to light. If he can get down the stairs that is. Rod has been confined to the couch with his bride to watch the most terrible and hideous show on television. Luckily, he has a great BEER of the WEEK. Dave heads down a Rabbit Hole that started when he watched a movie he’d never seen before. It ended with the splat of David Hasselhoff singing with Men Jeong. Microsoft is trying to buy Tik Tok, which i...
