gleebster posted:"And now, to give us a balanced look at recent events, Cokie Roberts is going to be talking to David Brooks and Jonah Goldberg." Today they had John Yoo on to talk about the Trump administration's fight with the Congress over Trump's executive privilege claims. Absolutely zero mention of his Bush-era role as the author of the torture memos and related fuckery. Thanks for rehabilitating him, NPR

Coolness Averted posted:All things considered? No they did in the intro just didn't confront him at all, bring it up in the interview or in any way signal he might be on shakey ground when it comes to talking about executive power since he was willing to go on record saying 'tromp might be bad' And by 'bad' he meant 'goes overboard so much on exec. privilege claims it might limit a future administration'.

The donkey trade in (voice immediately sounds like a white woman impersonating Speedy Gonzalez) Tee-hah-hoooanya, Meh-heeee-koh (tumbleweed rolls by, Mariachi guitar strum) Jesus, even when I agree with some of the editorial lines seeping out of the news the smarmy tone just ruins it.

Today's report on the world of competition spelling competition spelling, talked about a high-pressure, high-stakes environment for young children and did so in that annoying sing-song "gosh, there might be some concerns here but NAH" voice that makes me want to burn my tote bag.

Julius CSAR posted:Retro Cocktail Hour is still on and it’s still fantastic. He’s very fond of dipping into the (many) soundtracks from Cowboy Bebop Goddamn, I love this poo poo. There was a similar show on WRAS (I think) in Atlanta called Martinis Con Queso. When my wife and I would be driving to her lovely job as a manager at a Hancock Fabrics (where I was the only male employee...I came in on Saturdays to help out...long story) we would listen to it and loved it. PS: Retro Cocktail Hour show archive available here.
