What podcast? In the need for more interesting podcasts about pretty much anything

It's called Science Sort Of. They generally talk about media and news articles about science or have scientists come in to talk about their work and also have a What Are We Drinking segment where they rate whatever alcohol they are having at the time.

The funny part is earlier today he was saying the exact opposite. Saying he now prioritized EU free trade of UK fair trade and was worried about how Brexit could take away american jobs.

I don't think he realizes that everything he says will be made public, so you can't tell everyone what they want to hear and not expect it to bite you in the rear end.

I mean maybe, but I think the facade of Bannon as Machiavellian mastermind piloting Trump towards securing the existence of our people has largely faded; his intellectual heft is maybe half a step above the average redditor's.

A simpler explanation is that Trump just spouted off again because Merkel rolled her eyes at him or something.

Speak of the devil, this reporter is just tweeting about a Trump phone call with the King of Denmark.:

https://twitter.com/yashar/status/867847801648156673

Trump NATO meeting reminds me of a story I was never authorized to share, until now. His 1st call w/ Prime Minister of Denmark last year

This story was shared with me in December and confirmed by two high-level sources.

After the election it was widely reported that world leaders had a difficult time reaching Trump.

Normally calls w/ foreign leaders/POTUS elect are arranged w/ State Dept. This email @AmbassadorRice sent to Podesta explains process.



So the Prime Minister's office finally tracks someone down that knows how to get a hold of Trump and the call is arranged/made...

President Elect Trump is on call w/ Prime Minister of Denmark + mentions that his daughter in-law, Vanessa Trump, is of Danish descent

Trump then conferences his daughter-in-law into call w/ the Prime Minister of Denmark! Prime Minister was not warned/briefed in advance.

He then says to his daughter-in-law, "I'm on the phone with the King of Denmark!

Queen Margrethe II is the head of state, there is no King.

I've never seen Corey in the House, but

Cory Baxter: [mockingly] But I'm not in my underwe...
Jason Stickler: Turbo!
[the hand dryer sucks off Cory's clothes, leaving him in a white t-shirt and powder blue boxers]

...

Cory Baxter: I had the worst night of my life!
Sophie: I almost married your friend NEWT
Cory Baxter: Well I got on a bus in my underwear
Sophie: Ok then you win!

This is better written then anything Trump has said.

I was in Shanghai as an art student for some big cultural anniversary thing and we got to go to all of their museums with custom tours and poo poo.

The museums themselves are structurally unbelievable. Just nuts architecture.

The exhibits are incredibly underwhelming. Basically they have entire teams in west china digging up and bringing everything they can find and putting it in a museum. It's almost all vases. I remember someone telling me that in china it's less important that this is the actual thing v. its important that something like this has always been here. So they you know rebuild entire sections of the great wall for the tourists. But that might just be stupid westerner talk.

They did have a perfect to scale model of the city of shanghai at one place, relentlessly attended by like four or five people that updated it every day. It had cranes and everything. It was remarkable.

This is a statue China put in one of its national parks.

Not really, no. Trump will sign any bill the republicans send to him. They can't get healthcare done and might not get the budget done either, because one absolutely intransigent faction within the party wants to slash medicare/medicaid and the other side is acutely aware that without old people they can't get elected.

To some extent I guess the ongoing circus in the white house is making it tough for the republicans to just quietly do things while nobody is paying attention, but the biggest priorities are stuck because the House was only able to pass ACA repeals over and over and over and over for six years because they knew it wouldn't become law. And probably quite a lot of them ran on ACA repeal in 2016 under the presumption Hillary Clinton would veto any bill and therefore they could continue to pass repeals that would not become law.

Now they are in the situation where the actual ramifications of an appeal would take place, and millions of racist old Fox News viewers Republican voters will be forced to actually realize that Obamacare = the ACA and that the ACA is why they have health care.
