G7 Summit, Supreme court Muslim band, Racism and the decline of Media coverage

Catching up on the political topics of the day.  The guys come together to talk about crazy topics such as Tariffs, Space force and effecting the relationships with our allies.  We talk about the how the administration is allegedly effecting jobs, people with MBA's not getting hired and the Trump voters correlation with opioid use.  We also hit the media again with how they have failed the public with their reporting and the Muslim ban and Is it racist

The US/ North Korean Summit and The lack of purpose by the DNC

The team jumps in with the opinions about the how our diplomacy has changed under the Trump administration.  With the North Korean / US summit completed, we're not sure what we got out of the summit as a nation.  With a twist to presidential legacies, What do we feel about legacies with presidential people or performers?  Also what will be next with Mike Pence and what will the democrats bring to the table for the next General elections and lets make room for women.  Especially with the DNC still not organized enough to represent the people.

Does the media get a good grade for the first half of the year?

The team gets together and discuss Trump creating Battlestar Gallactica/Star Trek force to protect space.  Yeah, thats what I said.  Also we talk about what the media is really doing this year compared to the previous year as well as Some of the decisions made by the supreme court.  We were a day late on the Kennedy resignation.  And we almost missed what went on during the G7 summit.  We alsp delve into the racist policies and discuss fear vs. racism.  A very interesting discussion.

ANON - Netflix

I sit down and review this Netflix movie called Anon short for anonymous.  A sci-fi thriller i thought would be pretty interesting and very relative to the privacy issue going on the present day with almost everything.  We go back to an amazing writer who produces and directs his own stuff and I do a single review of this movie because Alicia fell asleep on it.

Ocean's 8 movie review

So as we introduce our new logo and Podcast name together.  Alicia and I go out to see the female version of Ocean's 11.  Called Ocean's 8.  Led by Sandra Bullock, we watch this new movie with skepticism and hope that possibly a new franchise will emerge with these ladies leading the way.  With hopefully a female director next time. 

 

 

Five years, eight months, 12 days and counting -- that's how long Debbie Ocean has been devising the biggest heist of her life.

Together, they recruit a crew of specialists, including jeweler Amita, street con Constance, suburban mom Tammy, hacker Nine Ball, and fashion designer Rose. Their target -- a necklace that's worth more than $150 million.

Women in the Primaries and whats up with the Media?

The guys come back together to rant about the media not having the guts to ask the hard questions and why are they still fearful of their jobs at the Whitehouse?  We jump into the amazing pursuit by women to gain political office to make the changes instead of waiting for Change.
