  • Awful

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

BLAH 213 | Revenge in ASOIAF, with Grant Piercy (Heathen King)
Q: What does the nature of power mean in relation to revenge?
Power can turn desires for revenge into indiscriminate violence, as seen with various characters in the story.
BLAH Special - Fighting Trump, with Frank Spring
Q: If you would now be in charge, the dictator of the DNC campaign to elect Biden in 2024, what is your message?
Validate their experience and highlight that it is now paying to work in America again.
BLAH Special - Fighting Trump, with Frank Spring
Q: What do you exactly mean by 'it is too expensive to be a person'?
It's cost of living. It costs a lot for healthcare, childcare, and all other essentials.
BLAH Special - Fighting Trump, with Frank Spring
Q: Would your position be that this is essentially not Donald Trump's election to win, but Biden's to lose?
That is correct. Biden has huge structural advantages.
BLAH Special - Fighting Trump, with Frank Spring
Q: Is this a process that occurred naturally or is Trump actively facilitating that?
It's a symptom of a phenomena that was already happening in the Republican Party, and an accelerant of that.
