"Two intellectual idiots fostering political and cultural literacy!" Helping all of us understand the different social and political dynamics that divide us. In an effort to help us understand that we are more alike than we are different

Libservative

In today's addition of "Two Intellectual Idiots Fostering Political and Cultural Literacy" Dan, Corey, and Bel "The Bodysnatcher" take YOU, the disenfranchised or politically homeless sane person into:

 

1) The fall of Assad. If nothing else, at least it brought the United States' intelligence community and Al-Qaida closer together. Isn't that all we want? To just get along?

 

2) Luigi Mangione.... Ladies think he's pretty hot. But, while his frustrations with insurance companies are understandable... as usual, he's angry at the wrong thing.

 

3) Biden issues blanket, preemptive pardons. Remember when it was "unpresidential" for Trump to do the same just 4 years ago?

Rules For Thee...But Not For Me

In today's addition of "Two Intellectual Idiots Fostering Political and Cultural Literacy" Dan, Corey, and Bel "The Bodysnatcher" take YOU, the disenfranchised or politically homeless sane person into:

 

1) The 1500 page spending boondoggle that congress is trying to pass just hours before they head home for their Holiday break. What's in it? Nobody knows. And certainly not any of the congresspeople.

 

2) The impending TikTok ban being taken up by the Supreme Court prior to it's implementation on January 19th (a very convenient date)

2024...Let's Review. Or Not...Who Cares?

In today's addition of "Two Intellectual Idiots Fostering Political and Cultural Literacy" Dan, Corey, and Bel "The Bodysnatcher" take YOU, the disenfranchised or politically homeless sane person into.

 

1) Our Predictions for 2025 in the political and cultural sphere. We're operating at a decent clip, so you should totally listen to us. You should't, but we really are operating at a decent clip. Whatever... you decide.

 

2) H-1B Visas. The new thing that everyone is a sudden expert about and get mostly wrong. Some of you just want DEI for white people... it's okay... the pendulum has already begun to swing.

 

3) Teror in New Orleans. Pick who to blame... It's way easier than remedying a problem. As the calendar changed over from 2024 to 2025, we are left wondering if the planet hopped into a wormhole and took us back to 2001. Where we are to fear the immigrants and "radical islam" again. wHo ArE wE gOnNa B

Is It 2001 or 2025?: H-1B and the New "Islamic Threat"

Dumpster Studios, Toxic Semen, and Ridiculous Legislation

Join Dan and Corey in this wild ride of an episode of Libservative, where nothing is off-limits and everything is up for debate. Corey kicks things off by recording from his new 'studio' — a dumpster! The hosts dive into Diddy's prison tantrums and his bizarre jealousy of fellow inmate Luigi Mangione. They then discuss Facebook's half-assed attempt at restoring free speech, Ohio's bonkers bill to charge for police footage, and Biden's hilariously bad idea to make people smoke more by reducing nicotine in cigarettes. Oh, and let's not forget the government's genius plan to fight diseases with genetically engineered mosquitoes equipped with toxic semen. With plenty of laughs and no-holds-barred commentary, Dan and Corey tackle the week's most absurd political and cultural issues.

Which Politician Would You Upper-Deck?

Dan's MacBook gets really drunk and has to take a trip to the ICU. Thoughts and prayers are needed.

 Police departments give us their next move in the cat-and-mouse game of policing the police. Woody and Buzz Lightyear will be thrilled to know their place in keeping our neighborhoods safe from evil-doers! 

The New York subway shooter has been identified and is in custody. Conservative media and social media (kind of) wins the identity lottery on this one. Liberal media and social media call for mental health reform to deflect from that fact that we are numb to mass shootings in America. 

Elon's "Hostile" takeover of Twitter is beginning? And you either love it or hate it! Why is Twitter touted as "a righteous, private company who can ban whatever speech they want" when they do it to the people you don't like? But a "capitalistic, power hungry, danger to society" if Musk succeeds? 

How Woke is TOO WOKE? vs "What Year Is It?" 

 - Handing UBI to only an experimental few. Watch us do our best Tucker Carlson impressions! 

 - Tennessee Marriage Bill leaves out one big provision.
