Starting off 2019 with a lot of political brouhaha

So many questions and unknowns that is going on in the white house, dealing with this shut down with one of our cohost mad as hell. We discuss politics based on the motion picture “Vice” Vice president Dick Cheney. And are we waiting on how the next fear tactics will save the Trump presidency?

Another Government shut down and that wall again.

The team jumps into the beginning of the year almost the same way we did last year. A government shut down Only this year it’s Trump who proudly said he would shut the government down and it would be his fault. Sadly he gets amnesia and blames everyone else but himself. We also talk about the changes in the democratic party.

Homecoming (Amazon Series)

Alicia and I take a quick binge trip with this very interesting Amazon series converted from the podcast series of the same name. Beautifully done directed by Sam Ismail better known for his work with the Mr. Robot series. This conspiracy military, rehab center, DOD suspense thriller takes you on a slow burn with corporate corruption, deception and pharmaceutical poisoning to a very real story line for profit

Heidi Bergman is a caseworker at Homecoming, a facility that helps soldiers transition back to civilian life. She leaves Homecoming to start a new life living with her mother and working as a small-town waitress. Years later, the Department of Defense questions why she left, which makes Heidi realize that there's a whole other story behind the one that she's been telling herself. Oscar winner Julia Roberts stars as Heidi in the first regular TV series role of her career. "Homecoming" is based a podcast of the same name.

 

 

Restoring the freedom of the press and the White house Chaos

The guys return to discuss a little press freedom given to our country from the Constitution. If there is a way to get to Trump through the Mueller investigation, Congress or what ever. We discuss our conflicting views of the condition of the Trump white house and is the change in the house is really something that will change the country.

The Girl in the Spider's Web

We thought this would be one of the must see movies of the fall since Alicia and I were readers of the Stieg Larsson millennium trilogy. From The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo  to the 3rd book The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest, This release was based on the posthumous release released in 2015 under the Swedish title Det som inte dödar oss (literal English translation: That Which Does Not Kill Us); the English title is The Girl in the Spider's Web . This is that movie.

Fired from the National Security Agency, Frans Balder recruits hacker Lisbeth Salander to steal FireWall, a computer program that can access codes for nuclear weapons worldwide. The download soon draws attention from an NSA agent who traces the activity to Stockholm. Further problems arise when Russian thugs take Lisbeth's laptop and kidnap a math whiz who can make FireWall work. Now, Lisbeth and an unlikely ally must race against time to save the boy and recover the codes to avert disaster

 

After the shake up (Election day 2018)

The Kavanaugh Hearings and the Senate Part 2

We end this two part podcast discussion with a Republican or two having the small bit of integrity to ask for an investigation, a delay for a week for the FBI to investigate and with the Democrats showing up much more aggressive than usual. What are the chances for their presidential run?

  

The Kavanaugh Hearings and the Senate Part 1

Today the team dives right into the Senate hearings on Brett Kavanaugh with Dr Ford the woman accusing Brett of sexual assault back in the 1980’s when they were both in prep school. The astounding contrast of both hearings is something we had to get out as soon as possible.

 

   

Tom Clancy's - Jack Ryan (Amazon)

So for the last couple of days I sat down and watched three of 5 Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan movies. To prepare me for the Amazon series “Jack Ryan”. I wanted to have a perspective before I started watching the series in case there was an unconscience bias about the character and the stories.

 

Author Tom Clancy introduced the character of Jack Ryan in a series of books before Ryan headed to the big screen in several films. Now the former U.S. Marine is featured in an episodic series for the first time, with John Krasinski portraying Ryan in this Amazon original thriller that centers on Ryan as an up-and-coming CIA analyst. He is thrust into a dangerous field assignment for the first time and uncovers a pattern in terrorist communication. That launches him into the middle of a dangerous gambit with a new breed of terrorism that threatens destruction on a global scale
