And we've explained that we're bringing this back because in 5 years the entire world has changed - some for the good, and others for the worse. Especially after the COVID pandemic shut down the entire world, we figured we need to go around the world and see what's up! We're also once again hitting all 6 continents (save for Antarctica). And also new for season 13 - we're celebrating 5 years of our favorite religious themed segment, Holy Shit! That's right - after nearly 200+ segments and its' own spinoff series, Holy Shit is celebrating 5 years! And we're going to have something very special cooked up for this most blessed of anniversaries! And of course don't forget our season ending Year In Review segment, and I can assure you that the year is half over and this might be one of the craziest years ever! Be sure to follow the Top 10 on Twitter @10Idiots for more information and also be sure to follow the Holy Church Of the Top 10 at @churchoftop10! Because we have a lot of exciting stuff planned for our unprecedented 13th season! Enjoy! And as always don't forget the key!

Edition #13-1: The Unbearable Weight Of Excessive Force Edition (7/28/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100216979322

Live from Santa Ana! As usual whenever the Top 10 is on an extended break, we like to play Catch Up On Stuff We Missed, and we missed a lot in two months. So much that we're expanding it for this edition into two parts - and we still might not get all of it! Meanwhile in Bedminster, there's a lot of controversy in the professional golf world about Saudi Arabia's new LIV league, and while most Americans and the rest of the world have boycotted the new league, guess who didn't? That's right - your favorite president, you know - him! Elsewhere, the Uvalde shooting is getting way too weird when it was recently revealed that some 400 officers were present at the time of the shooting. And when you have that many officers at the scene and nobody does anything, I got news for you 2A absolutionists, the problem isn't more cops! And in Ohio, we've been following the developments of that tragic rape case involving a 10 year old, and the justifications from the right are absolutely ridiculous and extreme. And if you have to justify this in any way, shape or form, you're part of the problem! In our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit", Hobby Lobby is going full fascist! That's right - everyone's least favorite decorating store took out a full page ad declaring America is a Christian nation, and we'll go over all the ways that they are wrong! Plus we debut our brand new feature - Late Stage Capitalism! That's right - when America's religion is the almighty dollar, these companies are going overboard to siphon your last dollar in the most horrible ways imaginable! Plus we have a new Conspiracy Corner - why is the Alt Right obsessed with med beds? Yes, the science fiction plot device is somehow a reality - at least in the warped minds of the Q nuts! Plus we have a new People Are Dumb - because of course they are! Finally it's time to debut the World Tour 2022! And our first stop is none other than our home base, the land of fast cars, Disneyland, and freeways - the good ol' state of California in the USA!
Live Musical Guest: The Offspring

Edition #13-2: This Machine High Fives Fascists Edition (8/4/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217001314

Live from Oxnard! Global Warming has created an unprecedented heat wave and is drying up lakes and rivers around the country. But is Mother Nature calm or is this just a sneak preview of what's coming? Little column A, little column B. In Congress, GOP Congressman are giving each other high fives after denying our nation's veterans the right to government health care, so much for supporting the troops, guys! And not surprisingly, Trump has laid out the GOP's plan for 2024 should they somehow manage to get back into power, and they're going full Nazi, and the Murdochs and OAN will probably be cheerleading their every move. Nice knowing everybody! And speaking of Trump, he's hosting the extremely controversial Saudi-backed LIV golf tournament at his Bedminster country club, and we'll be bringing you some highlights from that shit show! Plus in a new edition of We're All Gonna Die, what's up with Monkeypox? The WHO declared it a global health emergency of international concern, so why aren't we taking this more seriously? Well we'll be finding out soon enough! Plus in our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit", Marjorie Greene says that the US is a Christian nationalist nation, but does she even know what that means? And also do they not learn from history either? Answer is no and no. Plus in a new Beating A Dead Horse - Twisted Sister's Dee Snider says that he's not going to challenge Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake (Q - Nazi) on her use of his song "We're Not Gonna Take It", so is he right or wrong? We'll answer both sides of the question! And in a new edition of Conspiracy Corner - the Sandy Hook trial is coming to an end, and in a totally classless and not at all surprising move, Alex Jones' attorneys are letting the prosecutors know just how they feel. We can't say we're shocked. And in a new "I Need A Drink" - how bad is lotto fever where you live? Mega Millions hits a billion and we're there to get drunk and play too! Papa needs a new pair of everything! Finally this week, it's time for the Top 10 World Tour 2022 destination #2 as we head to the land of cowboys, guns, Whataburger, and the Alamo - it's Texas, USA!
Live Musical Guest: Coheed & Cambria

Edition #13-3: Holy Shit: The Fifth Anniversary Special (8/11/22)

Edition #13-4: Anyway You Nuke It, That's The Way You Nuke It Edition (8/18/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217059559

Live from Phoenix! It finally happened, Trump's "winter White House" at Mar-A-Lago was raided, and even we admit we didn't have Trump stealing nuclear secrets on our apocalypse bingo card. This of course caused the right wing to turn their outrage on the FBI, which resulted in a lone MAGA nut attempting to take on the Cincinatti division of the FBI by himself, and it predictably ended in disaster! Meanwhile, we bring you highlights of the Alex Jones trial that saw him get his ass handed to him in the tune of $50 million dollars, and you know that it ain't stopping there! The sooner this scumbag goes down in flames the better! And then former democrat Andrew Yang has stated that he's going to start his own political party, but whose side is he really one? Some of his more recent tweets might suggest that he's not on our side. And in a new "We're All Gonna Die" - guess what's back? That's right, anti-vaxxers have successfully brough back polio! Yeah that's right - a disease that was once eradicated is now rearing it's ugly head again thanks to anti-vaxxer dipshits. In our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit", Christian conservatives are becoming increasingly hostile in their dominionist rhetoric, and we're going to show you how to deal with these extremists should you encounter them in the wild! In a new "Beating A Dead Horse" - Colin Kaepernick is back! That's right - the Cleveland Browns signed him to a one year deal, but you know he's going to be a moving target everywhere he goes this season and it's going to be a shit show! Speaking of shit shows, in a new Conspiracy Corner - why is Fox News peddling a conspiracy about the IRS expanding its' powers? We can only figure that it's because their MAGA fan base is hiding some serious financial crimes that are probably worth investigating. We also have a new People Are Dumb because of course they are! Finally this week it's time for our World Tour 2022 Destination #3 and this week we're going to the land of hockey, curling, and hosers - the Great White North, Canada!
Live Musical Guest: The Dear Hunter

Edition #13-5: Wheel Of Corruption: The Origin Of Batman's Butler Edition (8/25/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217083034

Live from Austin! Unfortunately one of the few sane voices who's willing to stand up to Trump and the increasingly insane MAGA cult that's taking over the GOP, Liz Cheney, has been replaced by a hardcore MAGA nutjob, Harriet Hageman, whose only qualification for office is her loyalty to Trump. Yeah, FML. Speaking of Trump, he's upping the hysteria regarding last week's FBI raid on Mar-A-Shithole and things are escalating to the point where it's getting weird. Meanwhile in Florida, people are questioning the insane and heavily Fox inspired piece of legislation known as the "Stop Woke Act" and expect Fox to sound the independent thought alarm relatively soon. In Texas, republican run school boards across the state are increasing the banning of certain books, because again, Fox told them to, and they accidentally ban the Bible. Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha *holds breath* ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! We also have a new "We're All Gonna Die" - a disturbing new report has California underwater in the next 50 years due to extreme heat and climate change. Holy shit, Bill Hicks was right! When does Arizona Bay happen? And in our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit", fundamentalist Christians are frothing at the mouth at the chance to get revenge on a number of different things, including the Dark One's FBI raid, in a piece that we're naming after the classic Judas Priest album "Screaming For Vengeance"! In our economic focused segment, Late Stage Capitalism, Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook/Meta poured some $10 billion into the Metaverse, and the results are comically laughable. Should we all be concerned about how we're going to look on a VR headset? Probably. And in a new Conspiracy Corner - Mike Lindell promised yet another "life changing event" surrounding the 2020 election, but it was really just a Marjorie Greene campaign rally, followed by 90 minutes of the same batshit theories we've already heard, followed by 16 hours of how to be a My Pillow influencer. You know, the usual crap. This is why we can't have nice things. And in "I Need A Drink", what's your Hollywood Q score? It might shock you to know that Will Smith's dropped a very significant amount after the infamous pimp slap, so we will have some drinks and discuss what it all means! And finally it's time for the World Tour 2022! This week we're heading to the land of fish & chips, Buckingham Palace, and the British Premiere League - the United Kingdom!
Live Musical Guest: Dance Gavin Dance

**9/1 - Top 10 takes a week off**

Edition #13-6: Money, That's What I (Don't) Want Edition (9/8/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217136464

Live from San Diego! Biden gives a speech in Philly about how the MAGA cult is full of dangerous lunatics, and the meltdown coming from the right is about as batshit insane as you might expect. Speaking of conservative meltdowns, their reaction to Biden's student loan forgiveness program is also exactly what you would expect. Meanwhile, Trump's shithole social media site Truth Social is facing mounting money problems and it got banned from the Google App store because of concerns that its' users are threatening violence. Shocker, I know! Elsewhere, the state of Texas which is going through the worst energy crisis in the country, opened the largest bitcoin factory in the US. Expect Texas to become a black hole relatively soon. In the right wing blogosphere, what's Joe Rogan's message to his millions of followers even after all the shit we've put up with in the last 8 years? Vote republican. Sigh... I can't even. In our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in Holy Shit, you may have heard of a newly emerging cell phone company selling exclusively to the MAGAs called Patriot Mobile. What you may not know is that Patriot Mobile has a hidden agenda of flipping school boards to Christian nationalist agendas. Yeah if they come to your city, beware! We add New York's MAGA sycophant and hard Trump ass kisser Elise Stefanik (Q - Insurrectionist) to the ever-growing list of People Who Somehow Got Elected! In a new Conspiracy Corner, there's growing concern that Trump showed national security documents to his most high profile supporters and MAGA celebrities. So who saw them? We've got some theories! And we also have a new I Need A Drink - you may have heard about something called "quiet quitting", but is it quiet quitting or quiet firing we need to worry about? We'll have some drinks and find out more! Finally this week, our World Tour 2022 stops at Destination #5 - the land of the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, and wine and cheese, France!
Live Musical Guest: Elvis Costello & The Imposters

Edition #13-7: It's The End Of Democracy As We Know It Edition (9/15/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217161024

Live from Las Vegas! Last week the world lost a truly great leader as Queen Elizabeth II, the UK's longest reigning monarch, died at age 96. But the usual group of idiots here have their own reactions to her death, and it's about exactly what you'd expect from these clowns. Back at home, there's a new case on the SCOTUS block called "Moore V Harper" that could deal a fundamental blow to American democracy as we know it, and we all know how the MAGA SCOTUS will rule on the subject. Speaking of the MAGAs, Florida Judge (obviously) and Federalist / MAGA appointee Aileen Cannon (Q - Batshit) allowed that Trump is allowed to have a "Special Master" appointee in an effort to stall the charges against him as long as possible. Damn it. Meanwhile, Q Anon's favorite podcaster and insurrectionist Steve Bannon is going to prison over screwing the MAGAs out of their money to build the wall in Mexico, and we think it's hilarious! And in the White House, now that we have competent leaders again who aren't bloviating jackasses controlled by a criminally insane news network, Biden finally puts up the portrait of our 44th president, Barack Obama, in the White House! In our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10, apparently a far right billionaire philanthropist decided to reward megachurches with a $2 billion contribution for their efforts to overturn Roe V Wade, so our pastor decided to audit and find out what's up with that! And in Late Stage Capitalism, if you're a barista and you hate your job, just wait until you find out how much the new CEO of Starbucks is going to pull! Seriously why are we not rising up as one and overthrowing these guys? And in a new edition of Conspiracy Corner - Fox News is going all in on a made up "border crisis" meant to stir fear into the MAGAs, but what's really happening at the border? We'll show you Fox News vs reality! We also have a new People Are Dumb, because of course they are! Finally this week it's time for our World Tour 2022, and this week we're heading to the land of exotic villas, fast cars, the Serie A league, and the best pasta dishes in the world - Italy!
Live Musical Guest: Goose

Edition #13-8: We Have The Meats And Also The Subpoenas Edition (9/22/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217184639

Live from Salt Lake City! In what might be one of the most colossal dick moves ever pulled for a possible campaign stunt, both Greg Abbot (Q - Douchebag) and Ron DeSantis (Q - Florida Man) send buses and planes full of migrants to blue states and then let conservative talk show hosts know, because, you know, ratings and fearmongering. Meanwhile, in the MAGA world, Mike Lindell gets his phone seized at a fast food restaurant in the middle of nowhere. Marjorie Greene and Trump had probably better erase their phones now! Speaking of Trump, the conservative MAGA world really, really, really, very badly wants him to attend Queen Elizabeth II's funeral but the Royal Family basically told him to screw off. Both Elizabeth and Charles hate him! In Massachusettes, there's a bizarre campaign by a social media account called "Libsoftiktok" that is aiming to harass the Boston Children's Hospital, and they've received bomb threats. We're going to find out what's up with that, and it gets more disturbing the more you look into it. We also have a new Top 10 Investigates! Catalytic converter thefts are at an all time high, and if you own a late model Prius, you'd better take steps to protect it, because you'll be next! And in our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit", our resident pastor was recently alarmed by a crazy podcaster named Dalton Clodfelter, so we are taking another look at the insane world of extreme Christian nationalism, and there's not really a whole lot of difference between them and the Nazis! In a new edition of Late Stage Capitalism - it seems like everyone is on strike! Yes we may be out of the pandemic finally, but capitalism and corporate greed are affecting every aspect of life right now, and workers are rebelling against it! And in a new Conspiracy Corner, is the GOP going full Nazi? Like there's a lot of signs that suggest what they might be up to should they regain full power in 2024, and it's not going to be pretty! In a new "I Need A Drink", what's up with people timing how long a standing ovation is? Yeah that festival movie you just saw might be great, but do we need to stand up and applaud for it for 16 minutes? Damn. And finally this week it's time for the World Tour 2022 Destination #7 and this week we're taking a look at the land of the Danube River, Ghoulash, and the right wing fascist that the GOP thinks is a model leader - Hungary!
Live Musical Guest: Umphrey's McGee

Edition #13-9: Space Force: The Final Frontier Edition (9/29/22)

Live from Des Moines, Iowa! Idiots #13-9 was planned but canceled abruptly due to supply chain issues. Some of the scraps from this edition will appear in future Best Of editions.
Musical Guest: None

Edition #13-10: Wheel Of Corruption: Love And Thunder Edition (10/6/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217229531

Live from Denver celebrating the return of the Great American Beer Festival! Hurricane season is upon us and once again we prove why elections matter because the Fox News installed governor of Florida, Florida Man Ron DeSantis (Q - Woke) has a sad over pretending that Biden isn't caring that a massive hurricane is tearing through the Sunshine State. On the international front, Russia is escalating its' illegal occupation of Ukraine in a truly bizarre fashion, while Vladimir Putin celebrates his recent ill gotten gains. Also on the international front, remember when our World Tour stopped in Italy? Well it happened - Italy elected a far right, Trump-esque PM, and should we be really worried when the election happens and Mussolini immediately starts trending on social media? We would say definitely yes! Back at home, our old friend Marjorie Taylor Greene (Q - Nazi) filed for divorce, and is single handedly all of our stereotypes about the Christian right rolled into one disgusting package. To lighten things up a bit, we're going to talk about Space Force. Some of the details about the sixth branch of the military are coming out, and it's looking more and more like they stole all of their ideas from Star Trek and other science fiction programs. In our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit", conservative Christians are gearing up theocracy talk by pushing a bizarre theory known as "7 Mountains" into action, and they have just the guy to do it! In a new edition of our Culture War segment "Beating A Dead Horse", in one of the more bizarre controversies we've seen lately, the white wing of the GOP got their underwear in a wad when pop singer Lizzo visited the Library Of Congress and played James Madison's flute. Cue the whambulance! In a new Conspiracy Corner - the company that runs Trump's productions goes bankrupt, while Ginni Thomas gets grilled on Capitol Hill about her involvement in the insurrection, and the results are about what you'd expect. We also have a new I Need A Drink - and this week, when a hurricane strikes, we're going to talk about a measure you may have heard of to measure how fucked the East Coast is when a hurricane hits - the Waffle House Index, but what is it? We will drink and find out! Finally our World Tour 2022 visits the original home of Oktoberfest - the land of luxury cars, Bundesliga, and Neuschwanstein - Germany!
Live Musical Guest: Flogging Molly

Edition #13-11: Mr. Walker's Home For Peculiar Children Edition (10/13/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217249769

Live from Montana! With the latest SNAFU involving Georgia senate candidate Herschel Walker, the Christian right has accidentally said the quiet part out loud - they want absolute power, and they don't care who they stomp on to get it, or how many incompetent buffoons they have to run. Meanwhile it's been 100 days since the (not really) shocking overturn of Roe V Wade by the radical, hard MAGA, Christian right Supreme Court, so what's changed? Well a hell of a lot, and the Christian right is only just getting started! On Fox News, after President Biden announces his policies regarding marijuana offenders, you pretty much have to be high in order to get through their latest justifications. In other news, former NFL legend Brett Farve is in some extremely hot water over a welfare scandal in Mississippi, and he's in some really deep shit for this, but it also is a perfect lesson in white privilege. Plus we have a new "We're All Gonna Die" - you thought COVID was bad? Wait until you see the next bat virus hailing from Russia called "Khosta II" - you ain't seen nothing yet! And in our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit" - with Herschel Walker's latest admission that he might have had an abortion, our resident pastor has some theories about the Christian right's quest for domination and it's going to get weird. We profile the ultra MAGA and extremely controversial host of Wheel Of Fortune, Pat Sajak, in a new edition of This Fucking Guy. And in a new Conspiracy Corner - could the infamous Hunter Biden's laptop story finally be gaining some traction? We take a look at the latest round of evidence... and we still don't have any conclusions! We also have a new I Need A Drink - Kanye West is apparently cozying up to batshit crazy, off the deep end TPUSA host Candace Owens, but wait until you see their Fashion Week faux pas! Holy crap! Finally this week our World Tour 2022 stops in the land of oil, Arab sheiks, extreme wealth, and religious intolerance - Saudi Arabia!
Live musical guest: Slipknot

Edition #13-12: The Man With The Golden Toilet Edition (10/20/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217270337

Live from Fargo, North Dakota! The January 6th Committee finally dropped the big one and ordered Trump to testify before the Committee, but will he do it? He will probably find some way to weasel out of it, and Fox News will give him pointers to help him out. And speaking of verdicts, the Sandy Hook jurors dropped the big one on Alex Jones and ordered him to pay nearly $1 billion (yes, BILLION) dollars to the victims of that horrible tragedy and we're definitely here to watch him squirm! And another tragedy was brought to a close - sort of - when the Parkland jurors convicted mass murderer Nickolas Cruz to a life sentence and stopped literally just short of the death penalty, so we wonder where this is going. Meanwhile, our old buddy Kanye West, aka Ye, got dropped from JP Morgan, but was it because of his recent anti-Semitic remarks? Well the answer varies depending on who you talk to, but it gets weird. In Ukraine War news, Elon suddenly had a change of heart and is going to start charging Ukraine to use his Starlink service, but now he's taking Putin's side? WTF??? And in our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit", our resident pastor is going to analyze the absolutely insane comments being made from Dennis Prager of Prager U about religion and incest, and all we can say is... what the fuck? We profile Arizona senate candidate and possible insurrectionist Blake Masters (Q - Batshit) in a new edition of This Fucking Guy. And in a new Conspiracy Corner, always a champion of reading the room, in light of the Sandy Hook verdict, Marjorie Greene sides predictably with Alex Jones, and all we can say is those two are made for each other, and get a room. We also have a new People Are Dumb, because of course they are! Finally this week we have our ongoing World Tour 2022 and this week we're heading to the land of pyramids and pharaohs, the mighty Egypt!
Live Musical Guest: Motionless In White

**Top 10 take a week off (10/27/22)**

Edition #13-13: Death Of A Shoe Salesman Edition (11/3/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217315756

Live from Cabo San Lucas! In an unbelievably shocking act of political violence, Nancy Pelosi's home in San Francisco is raided by a MAGA conspiracy theorist who was looking to kill her, and conspiracy theorists everywhere are in "move along, nothing to see here" mode. Meanwhile, in a move that everyone saw coming, Tesla CEO and full time internet troll Elon Musk formally completes his hostile takeover of Twitter and it's costing him in more ways than one, and also Twitter is flooded with racists again. Elsewhere, our old buddy Ye goes full Nazi, and it costs him billionaire status after multiple companies cut ties with him. Not to mention, like some kind of fucked up Joker wannabe, it's inspiring hate bigots to come out of the woodwork all across the US and it's absolutely terrifying. In Supreme Court news, Clarence Thomas, inspired by his treasaonous wife Ginni Thomas, blocks an inquiry into an investigation into attempts to block the 2020 election. Absolutely shocking, we know! In a new edition of Top 10 Investigates, we take a look at the world's largest shipping hub - the UPS Worldport, and of course like any mega hub, it has some working conditions that aren't exactly what one would call "kosher". In our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit", the Christian right has a plan to hostily takeover your local schoolboard whether you want them to or not, and their end game is extremely disturbing! We profile Christian white nationalist extremist Dalton Clodfelter in a new edition of "This Fucking Guy". And in a new Conspiracy Corner, it's the return of the two dumbest con artists of all time - Jacob Wohl and Jack Berkman, and they're about to finally get their just deserts, or are they? Stay tuned! We also have a new I Need A Drink - audiences are flocking to a terrifying new low budget creepy clown movie that's destroying box offices and also redefining people's expectations of creepy clowns! And finally this week it's time for our World Tour 2022 Destination #12 and this week we're heading to the land of the Taj Mahal, Bollywood, and Rugby - India!
Live Musical Guest: Duran Duran

Edition #13-14: The Secret Life Of Chief Twitty Edition (11/10/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217348662

Live from Riverside! With the 2022 midterm election to end all midterm elections finally in the books, we can go over some of the big winners and losers, conspiracy theorists, and election deniers who have gone off the rails. Meanwhile, the ongoing disaster that is Elon Musk's hostile takeover of Twitter, is finally complete and it is going to be an economic bloodbath, but hey, the Chief Twit wants your $8 to keep your check mark, because, reasons. In international news, Jair Bolsonaro goes down swinging and let's just say that Brazil's far right conspiracy theorists and election deniers are no better than ours! Plus we take a look at an aspect of elections that is unique to the state of California - the propositions, and there were some doozys this year, not to mention the advertising blitz was taken to stunning new heights! In a new "We're All Gonna Die" - the UN has issued a dire warning about the state of climate change in the world, so what will it take for countries to join their pact? Well it's getting scary out there. In our weekly edition to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit", we continue our rant about the Christian right's Great Schoolboard Takeover because it's happening all over the country and you should definitely be aware of your local megachurch's after hours activities! In a new Beating A Dead Horse, look, we've tried to avoid talking about the JK Rowling anti-trans controversy but after last week's Daniel Radcliffe interview, we can no longer ignore it! In a new Conspiracy Corner - Mike Lindell claims he has the hotline to Brazil's now former first family and he's got the evidence that Brazil's election was stolen! Ooh, we can't wait! NOT! In a new edition of I Need A Drink - there's an insane and controversial new restaurant that looks to serve dogs Michelin starred dog food at an absolutely ridiculous cost. So... why? We need some drinks for this one! Finally it's time for our World Tour 2022 Destination #13 and we're heading to the land of the Great Wall, China!

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217383358

Live from Riverside! We have more election results from the seemingly never ending 2022 midterm cycle which will see some hopefully key upsets including religious right conspiracy theory turd Lauren Boebert finally getting flushed! Meanwhile, the news for Twitter just gets worse and worse as Elon doesn't seem too happy with his investment and is totally keen on tanking the whole damn thing. Elsewhere, that guy who we inexplicably used to call president is huffing and pouting in his echo chambers, does that mean that his years of lies, hate, and disinformation are finally catching up to him? Probably. After the religious right managed to overturn Roe V Wade this year, it seems like the voters have finally had enough of the church's nonsense and are starting to fight back against them! And our old buddy Alex Jones continues to dig a hole for himself as new rulings are finally hitting the conspiracy theory mad man where it hurts - his wallet! In our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit", our resident pastor checked out the new Hulu documentary about the Jerry Falwell Jr. pool boy scandal, "God Forbid" and he has some interesting thoughts on the subject! We add former Trump press secretary and new Arkansas governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders to the ever growing list of People Who Somehow Got Elected! In a new edition of Conspiracy Corner, the usual group of MAGA imbeciles are screaming about voter fraud in the 2022 midterms, and it gets weird depending on who you talk to! We also have a new People Are Dumb, because of course they are! Finally this week it's time for World Tour 2022 destination and this week we're heading to the land of kangaroos, boomerangs, and the Sydney Opera House - Australia!

Edition #13-16: Showdown At The Golden Corral Edition (12/1/22)
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217425200

Live from Irvine! Sigh... another day, another mass shooting. This time it's in Colorado Springs at an LGBT nightclub where 5 people died and 25 more injured... but an Army vet enjoying a night out with his family saves the day! In Twitter news, Elon is reportedly going to "unleash the Kraken" by offering full amnesty to accounts that were permanently banned for hate and harassment, while threatening to dox advertisers who leave the platform. What could go wrong? Meanwhile, Trump deals with some unwanted dinner guests crashing his Thanksgiving party - our old buddy Ye and his new BFF, notorious racist, sexist, and internet troll Nick Fuentes! We're surprised that Trump didn't give Ye the heave ho! And newly implemented House Speaker Kevin McCarthy takes over and instigates a new rein of terror, and his first stunt involving the Constitution backfires on him spectacularly! Why do people vote for these idiots? We have a new Top 10 Investigates - there's an unsolved murder involving students at Idaho's Boise State - and the more you dig into it, the weirder it gets! And in our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit", if you think the Club Q shooting was yet another terrible and disgustingly unnecessary tragedy to add to the pile, the right wing reactions to the shooting will make you want to throw your monitor out the window! Plus in a new edition of our newest segment, Late Stage Capitalism, why are Amazon workers going on strike on Black Friday? Well... the answer is obvious, Amazon. And in a new Conspiracy Corner, Mike Lindell feels compelled to run for RNC chair much in the same way that Elon felt compelled to buy Twitter, and the results are laughably, predictably hilarious! This is your guy, MAGAs? We also have a new "I Need A Drink" - why was beer banned at the World Cup this year? Well we need to have some drinks (preferably beers) and get to the bottom of this glass, er, mystery! Finally this week, it's time for another stop on our World Tour 2022, and this week we're going to the land of tequila and Aztec pyramids, our friends south of the border, Mexico!

Our resident tin foil hatter will go through the archives and pull out his 10 favorites! From Idiots #8-12, we bring you the very first Conspiracy Corner where we discuss anti-vaxxer and Q Anon nuttery. From Idiots #12-12, we bring you what may be the best Conspiracy Corner we've ever done where we discuss the utter ridiculousness of Tucker Carlson's batshit insane documentary "The End Of Man", which is really just a way to hawk an equally bizarre testicle tanning solution, because, wellness, I guess? From Idiots #11-14, we ask the question - is your neighbor a Nazi? And the answer is: probably! From Idiots #11-16, anti-vaxxers are going out of their way to buy completely illegal and fake vaccine ID cards for $500, and entirely ignoring the fact that the actual vaccine is, you, know, free. From Idiots #10-9, Q Anon has a bizarre hot take on a massive cargo ship that got stuck in the Suez Canal - and it's because - wait for it - human trafficking. Always comes back to that. From Idiots #10-6, why do Q nuts believe that the COVID vaccine will implant a 5G microchip in them? We have no idea either, but the internet has proven to be a bottomless pit of stupidity. From Idiots #9-6, speaking of bizarre theories, Q Anon is obsessed with furniture manufacturer Wayfair and their $10,000 filing cabinets can only cost that much because - wait for it - live babies are inside. Like really WTF. From Idiots #12-16, we channel our good buddy Tom DeLonge from Blink 182 and ask the question "do aliens exist?" and the answer, once again is: probably! From Idiots #13-4, there's an insane new Fox talking point about the Biden administration hiring 87,000 agents, and ify your neighbor is freaking out about that, it's probably because they have some horrible financial crimes that they're hiding. Finally, from Idiots #13-8, premier Russian warlord Vladimir Putin has a way of silencing his critics, and there's an insane amount of them, and if you are critical of Putin, you should probably stay away from tall buildings with balconies.
