Sounds like the first time you have listened to Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt. Gus is ubiquitous for Fox Sports, calling NCAA basketball as well as football. He does get excitable lol.

For a timeline cleanse here is a beautiful sunset sky taken from the dunes on Sandy Hook on the Jersey Shore. I estimated roughly 280Β° of continuous color which is stupendous. Tap and turn horizontal for full size. I hope you have had a great day!

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Are we losing our minds? This is getting ridiculous and pathetic. Are we trying to kill millions of innocent children? Childhood vaccines save lives.

Abolishing them is insanity.

Governor DeSantis must either remove Joseph Ladapo as Surgeon General or have him resign.

A coal-fired plant in Michigan was supposed to close. But Trump forced it to keep running at $1M a day. The community had big plans for the facility site, until the Trump administration ordered it to stay open, a move it extended this week.
