125: Witches

P&C drink and review “Unforgivable Curses” by Peabody Heights brewery, then discuss witches and witchcraft.

What’s up with witches? Nowadays they’re fun and sexy, but there was a time when people were scared to death of them, hunted them down and hanged them.

The boys discuss various pogroms against witches over the years, trying to sort out what’s true and what’s a misconception. They cover …

  • Joan of Arc
  • The Malleus Maleficarum
  • The witch’s mark
  • Salem
  • How many witches were actually killed?

… and much more.

124: Sue, boycott and punch back!

P&C drink and review a hop-infused cider, then discuss how lawsuits and boycotts might be the only hope of saving western civilization from the assault by woke, racist morons.

The boys don’t like litigation or boycotts, but it seems those might be the only tools to fight critical race theory and the other woke idiocies that are ruining lives and destroying the culture.

Corporations are buying into these explicity racist, illegal, and immoral diversity struggle sessions to avoid lawsuits. Conservatives need to show them that lawsuits and boycotts can come from both sides, and that the law is on our side. CRT is clearly racist, and therefore unconstitutional.

And now we have Major League Baseball getting into politics. Rather than being the non-political escape that we all were able to enjoy together, sports organizations are injecting partisan politics into our free time.

As distasteful as it is, boycott the idiots until they get some sense and grow a pair.

123: Voting Laws

P&C review Pigweed’s most recent pale ale, then discuss voting laws. Are the “one-time” accommodations to the pandemic going to change things permanently?

The last election was weird. Mail-in (late) ballots. Ballots mailed to everyone on the roles. Votes counted after election day.

Both sides recognize there’s cause for some sort of clean-up, but we have different visions of what that should be. There’s (so far) a federal approach, and a state (GA) approach.

P&C weigh in, discussing the role of the federal and the state governments, and how we balance keeping things local vs. national standards.
