For the last episode of 2025 I decided to do something a little different. I had a round table chat with some prior guests of the show. I was joined by Cody, John Jamingo, and JD the Bot Guy to shoot the bull and talk about the past year. But mostly just shot the bull. As usual there were some issues, because it wouldn't be an I HAD to say it episode if there weren't. But it was fun. Hope you enjoy, Happy New Year, and here's to next year being better.
OK so this episode is plagued with terrible technical issues, a host with seasonal inability to focus and a some chaos, but the recipe was good so I posted it. For the record, the part with me being mad at my wife for posting a picture was supposed to be a bit since I am a Christmas grouch, but it came off kind of asinine when I listened back to it, so I am adding a disclaimer in the show notes. If I was actually mad I wouldn't have used the picture as the thumbnail.

In the first video interview I put out I sat down and had my second attempt at talking with the creator and operator of ForcedValor.com and Forced Valor Radio on youtube. We had a previous session that will forever be known as the lost episode, after my hard drive died immediately after I finished editing it. JD is a good guy and you should check out his stuff. It will be worth the time. We had a good talk, both times. Find out what Forced Valor is all about. Find out WHY he is the bot guy. Find out....well stuff. Go watch it already.ForcedValor.comyoutube.com/@ForcedValor
A couple of mass shootings happened again, the left is using it to try and push more gun control. Problem is both happened in locations that already have strict gun control regulations in place. But never let a good crisis go to waste. Also Rob Reiner and his wife were murdered, and Trump couldn't help but make it about himself. That and thoughts on a few other pertinent matters.
As always go to the website. Do the things.

It's been a week. This episode contains gamer words, so if you are easily offended, don't bother. That being said, it's been an eventful week, Trump is being Trump, the swamp is swamping, more fraud, waste, abuse, and seditious behaviors, and as always I have thoughts.

I sat down with Lisa Ekman, former Democrat swamp creature and author to have a little chat. It was a great conversation and I'm looking forward to talking to her again in the future.
"Lisa Ekman spent twenty years as a democratic swamp creature working and living in Washington D.C. During that time she worked for two well known democratic senators, democratic appointees at federal agencies, government contractors, and several non-profit organizations. She was a disability advocate and lobbyist, working alongside people with disabilities to expand and improve federal disability programs.
....
Lisa Ekman has a Juris Doctor from Georgetown University, a master’s in social work from the University of Denver, and a bachelor’s in communication and rhetoric from Northwestern University. She moved to a farm in Virginia in 2020 after she woke up and deprogrammed herself. She lives with her fiancé, their five dogs, and chickens on their farm, where they grow organic fruits and vegetables."

Another week, more political drama. The left is on one flavor of nonsense, the right another. MTG is retiring, MAGA has forgotten that not everyone that voted for Trump is part of their ranks, the Dems are still trying to paint themselves as the real patriots, despite spending so much time bitching about every principle that the United States was founded on, a handful of congressional morons made a stupid video, and a bunch of people got taunted with bacon.
As always I have thoughts.

I've been happy with some of what is going on in this administration, and not so happy with some of it. This episode was mostly inspired by a truth post I saw this morning at the gym, it sent me off on a tangent. It might make the MAGA crowd a little angry with me, but what can I say. No one is above reproach. Plus thoughts on Chicago's financial ruin and the race to the bottom and the first episode with the new Aaron's weekly recipe segment. Mangia.
Well, they finally got the votes 60-40 to reopen the government. The leftists are pissed. Also I have thoughts about the election that passed.

The government is still "shut down." The left is still blaming the cheeto, and the right. Low IQ high calorie individuals are talking about stealing because they aren't getting their free stuff. And there is a commie about to be elected to the Mayor of New York, a guy that looks like he should be stealing boats in the middle east about to be elected in Minneapolis, and people just being generally terrible. As always I have thoughts.

The government is still "shut down" and at the end of the month a whole bunch of people are going to have to start figuring out how they are going to eat. Of course a bunch of entitled clowns are saying they are just going to start stealing, and "nobody better try an stop them or they goan find out" Of course I have thoughts.

SO since the first one was such a massive success, the theater kids decided to have ANOTHER "No Kings" protest. I guess it's working? I mean we still have a duly elected president that they hate, so no kings so far. As always, I have thoughts.

ANTIFA protesters are full of hot air, a bunch of people on bikes, an end to the HAMAS / Israel conflict, and a bunch of random things.

So Jimmy Kimmel wasn't canceled. He was suspended. Predictably the leftists are way too happy about it. They think they accomplished something. I have thoughts

Ok so you guys know I had some family stuff come up that threw everything off this week. It's taken care of and I was going to just let the week go because I have a lot of other stuff going on that made putting together an episode seem like a slim chance. Then the world took a hard turn, and a lot of friggin people showed their true colors. It pissed me off, and I had to get things off my chest. So I had thoughts.
