632 - They Droop Horses, Don’t They? (5/31/22)
🕑 Added 2022-06-01 03:47:26 +0000 UTCWe do a public company audit over our failure to obtain PPP loans for our podcast business like our more industrious competitors. Then, a few current events including Trump at the NRA convention, Swedish hospitality habits, and the bloody shambles of indignities around the Queen’s platinum jubilee. Finally, a reading series from Biden-world about the president’s frustration that he just can’t seem to catch a break!

Who's the Patrick McManus fan over here? As a Minnesota boy who read all his hokey shit as a kid, my guess is Matt. It's kind of literary schlock, but warm and satisfying prose all the same. Like the opposite of Verhoven. Check it out if you're seventy years old.

Is there a full version of the “Akira motorcycle theme x macho man” from the end of the episode?

Paul Pelosi got his license BACK? Any ordinary person that old would’ve *kissed it goodbye*
They have started using a hologram of the queen for public appearances. Waving from a carriage

Big synchronicity with the Lesko talk. Work meeting last week involving a grant change had someone say “it’s free money” and someone else, without skipping a beat adding, “from the government”. People over 35 chuckled. Also, definitely remembered question marks on the suit… weird

lol I found out abt Mr. Pelosi's DUI from a table I was serving on Sunday - Nancy was in the middle of giving the commencement speech at Brown when the news came out abt her hubby and that's what the family remembered most from the grad ceremony.

My wife (then girlfriend) used to wait on these Swedish hockey players who played for the Devils. They lived in the building above the restaurant where she worked. Multiple times a week they would special order pasta with ranch dressing and ketchup and request to have an "athlete size" portion. Not completely related to the topic, but I try to share this anecdote about these sick freaks any time I get the chance.

The scale of the PPP grift in the Tenderloin alone had to be on par with the GDP of a small, shithole country. Not one of the nice ones, like Sweden, but a small, shitty one. like uh, Honduras. yeah...
