Meet the (Third Party) Candidates: Jill Stein

Green party candidate for president Jill Stein.  Democrats believe she’s the Yoko Ono of the presidential race.  Donald Trump believes she’s...yet another faceless disgusting woman who probably has periods.  Both major parties would like you to think she’s some sort of dreadlock-y hippie that isn’t worth your time.  If corporate shills and/or flat out insane people aren’t your cup of tea, join us as we meet our first of the two major third party candidates and dive a little deeper into this thing called democracy!

BTL #189 - George's Little Brother - 2/22/16

This week on the podcast, Carla Nordstrom joins us for our coverage of the Nevada Caucus results, the fully bonkers South Carolina GOP primary results, a finally tally of what money can't buy you care of a now exclamation point-less Jeb, and Donald Trump's latest sparring partner, Pope Francis.  Naturally we didn't forget to bring you this week's crazy Scalia conspiracy theories and make sure to listen to Carla's editorial on young voters and the Democratic Party!  Yet another can't-miss week and more are on the way!

BTL #188 - Real Pizza - 2/16/16

What a week!  It began with the best day of our lives - the New Hampshire primaries and ended with the surprise death of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.  He was a complicated man, scourge to liberals, BFF to RBG. knower of real pizza, not-knower of the rights of women, gays, minorities, and most other human creatures to have healthcare, the right to marry, or services and dignity of any kind.  The GOP is honoring him the best they know how - by refusing to do their job.  Alex Jones and Matt Drudge are honoring him the best way they know how - by spreading conspiracy theories about his death.  We're honoring him the best way we know how -  by bringing you news on the most raucous GOP debate to date, the upcoming Nevada caucuses and South Carolina primaries, and so much more!  It's yet another rollercoaster week in this unbelievably exciting election cycle!

BTL #187 - Disappointing Wins, Victorious Losses - 2/8/16

This week on BTL, literally everything happened.  The Iowa Caucuses!  A Democratic Debate!  A Republican Debate!  It was a bonanza of everything we love and hold dear.  We've got caucus results, polling heading into New Hampshire (it's on Tuesday!), and rampant speculation about South Carolina, plus, find our why we're totally over Chris Wallace, totally into DeRay McKesson, and totally pissed at Gloria Steinem.  And if all that wasn't enough, Sinkhole Radio is back!  What a whirlwind!

There is Only One Issue Worth Voting on in 2016

Here’s a bold declaration:  Despite the rancor accompanying this year's races and last year’s congressional session, there is only one issue worth voting on.  It’s a deceptively simple issue too; massively important, but, oddly, still one a vast majority of Americans agree on.

Iowa Caucuses: The Results

What a rollercoaster!  With huge turnout on both sides of the aisle, a dead heat on the Democratic side, and a surprising third place upset on the GOP side (is that a thing?), we're here to explain what exactly just happened!

BTL #186 - How To Caucus Wisely - 2/1/16

IOWA, IT'S TIME TO CAUCUS!!  We have everything here need to know going into today's official start of the primary season, plus all the dirt on the Hillary and Bernie's newly agreed upon Democratic Debate schedule, last week's Trump-less but not very reassuring GOP Debate (were they all always so boring?), and Hillary's never-ending email dramas.  All that plus we've reached maximum rage in the Flint water scandal/atrocity/fucking terribleness, and we have some important lessons for the GOP about when a group of liars should try to fool the judicial system and when they should just...stay home.  Follow along all week as we report and dissect the Iowa results!
