E-217: Bondi Beach Shooting

Two gunmen opened fire on a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach, Australia, leaving several dead. California is so strapped for cash that crime is running rampant across the state. Gavin Newsom admits to providing healthcare to undocumented immigrants, Katie Porter explains why the budget is a mess, and Ryan Clark spreads more racism. Oh, and Kim Iversen should reconsider suing Tim Pool.

E-216: The most disgusting story from Stillwater

One of the most disturbing stories to hit the news in a while is about Jesse Butler, a teenager who raped and beat two teenage girls, yet walked out of the courtroom a free man. Meanwhile, a Muslim woman named Amani has claimed that Muslims built America, a statement I disagree with. Tim Pool says his security team costs more than his studio, and that it’s time for a change. It makes me wonder—who would want to kill all these podcasters?

E-215: Another day with Gavin Newsom

Gavin attends the New York Times DealBook Summit, spending his time campaigning. He then heads to the White House to request billions in fire aid but forgets to waive building fees. Following that, he spends $450 million on a 911 system that doesn’t work. Meanwhile, Trump withholds SNAP from blue states, and another congresswoman insists the federal government should follow her commands. Eric Swalwell wants to allow voting by phone, and some farmers have admitted on camera to illegally hiring farm workers.

E-214: So many silly laws being passed and the Epstein files are being released

Today we learned about the Crown Law in Pennsylvania and the head tax in Chicago. Gavin promised to build 150 temporary houses by the summer of 2026, and we believe him this time, lol. Donald Trump also approved the release of the Epstein files.

E-213: Oh, those pesky Epstein emails


Thousands of emails have been released, but what do they actually reveal? Most mention Trump and other high-profile figures, yet don’t directly implicate them in any crimes. Jasmine Crockett keeps calling Trump a pedophile, while Dan Goldman suddenly seems concerned about a “cover-up.” Then Texas Republican Lance Gooden asks them both a straightforward question about the files, and they end up stepping on the virtual rake.

E- 211: The economy, EBT, and yes, Matt Walsh

Today on the show, we take a look at the state of the economy and ask, how bad is EBT really? Spoiler alert: it’s not as bad as people make it out to be. We’ll also dig a bit deeper into the ongoing Matt Walsh saga.

E- 210: The kids keep fighting and the shutdown is over

Over the past week or so, I've been listening to all these public spats and have come to the conclusion that it's all just theater. None of it feels real, and everyone is playing a character. Nick Fuentes is like a supervillain, while Ben Shapiro comes across as a kind of Professor X. Anyway, the shutdown is effectively over, and the Democratic Party has already started pointing fingers.

E-207: Soft Language is ruining the world.

In this episode, we discuss how language contributes to the dumbing down of society, and using an example from George Carlin is always a great choice. Gavin Newsom keeps making false claims about his record, and Dirty Soda gets a food review that is absolutely hilarious.

E-206: Revenge of the shutdown

Well, the shutdown is now in day 24, or maybe 27—who can even keep track anymore? One thing's for sure, though, I know who's to blame, and their mascot is a donkey. Nowadays, everyone with even the slightest following on social media seems to have an opinion, and some guy named Malcolm is trying to convince you that the Republicans want you to starve. I'll prove to you all that he's completely wrong and likely didn't even read the bill.It is a bill called the Shutdown Fairness Act that I will discuss with all of you.


A comet or a spaceship has entered our solar system, and I hope they're friendly, lol.

E-205: Trump issues a pardon and cancels student debt????

It's another day in the news cycle that makes me question my political leanings. The president pardons George Santos after condemning the Biden administration for doing the same, then adds student debt to the pile after calling Joe Biden's loan forgiveness plan unconstitutional. Of course, we end up listening to a very disingenuous Steven Crowder.

E-203: Who wants a shutdown

Today, it's all about the government shutdown, the childish behavior from the Democratic Party, and the idea that it's the Republicans' fault. I tried to address this topic without using foul language, but I just couldn't.

We then spent a few minutes tackling another podcast called Financial Audit, where the host, Caleb Hammer, comes across as a self-entitled, spoiled brat, and his acting skills leave much to be desired.

E-202: A sports podcast that sucks

With this rabbit hole I've decided to explore over the next 200 episodes, my plan is to respond to and call out others in this industry for the nonsense that comes out of their mouths.

Today on the Kings Beat podcast, I endured poor camera quality, people walking out, and a whole lot of unrelated chatter instead of sports talk.

E-201: Famous people have ruined podcasting

According to the Hollywood Reporter and Success.com, the podcast space is considered oversaturated. Naturally, many famous personalities, from Marc Maron to Theo Von, have agreed with this sentiment. After listening to a "new" podcast, I'm convinced this is the fault of those very same famous people.
