The Boredwalk Podcast Episode 272: What is this weird feeling? Is this... hope?

Ansley Hutchinson, Tess Menzies, and Gabe Sanchez, from the Boredwalk content team chat about the initial trickle of documents being released from the Epstein Files, as well as:

• The misconception that liberals care about protecting Democrats implicated in the commission of heinous crimes (we don't; prosecute them ALL)

• The heartening resoluteness of MAGA luminaries refusing to remove their names from the discharge petition that would trigger a full release of the files

• Tesla's grotesque $1T compensation package for their chaotic CEO, Elon Musk

• The short and long term fallout from the ending of the federal government shutdown and what that means for U.S. citizens now and in the new year

• Trump's idiotic 50-year mortgage proposal, which would more or less guarantee a life of indentured servitude for the majority of future U.S. home "owners"

• The New York Times' ongoing regrettable decision to employ conservative op/ed contributor Ross Douthat, especially after his recent column stating that women have "ruined the workplace"

• #StickerGate!

We then pivot to a glowing review of our activity books before checking in with the latest dispatch from Troll-sylvania — always good for a derisive chuckle.

In an effort to take things out on a high note, our hosts wrap up the episode by trading answers to questions pulled from our Delve Deck conversation card sets! This week we answer the questions "who would be the worst people to have at a dinner party?", "what do you treat yourself to now that couldn't as a kid?", and "what life experience has made you a better version of yourself?"

Thanks for stopping by to hang out, commiserate, and (hopefully) laugh with us!
