  • Talk Show Tanks Without Tom

    Never says anything critical of Trump, a great safe space for smooth MAGA minds to enjoy.

  • John is Great But…

    I love John’s wit and storytelling but wish they would run best of or have better fill in hosts! This TikTok celebrity they’ve been letting on is awful. Supposedly she’s a comedian but didn’t have one funny line the whole show. Just giggled at herself the whole time. KIRO is a reputable radio station. Not a social media clickbait content house for Gen Z twits!

  • One of my faves

    John always makes me think and then laugh. Given the local “news” is so biased, I think I am better informed with John’s deep dives into the local news.

  • Too Agreeable

    Are used to listen to this show for the disagreements between Tom and John. Since Tom left, I feel like the show lost its core strength where it’s now mainly the John Curley show with some differing opinion. I always appreciated listening to this show for perspectives on both the right and left. I found other podcasts that do that more effectively.

  • My favorite show, news and silliness!

    I’ve been listening since John found his way on the station. New listeners may not get the inside jokes but that’s what makes it great! I feel a bond for both John and Shari and hope the show keeps going for years to come!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Hour 1: Katie Wilson wants more Tiny Homes being built, will that work?
Q: Who are the tiny houses for, and what would success look like for residents?
The guest emphasizes many residents are chronically homeless and may resist traditional services; success would require targeted housing with strong, enforceable treatment and support programs, plus clear pathways to stability and independence rather than perpetual occupancy.
Hour 4: Should we Approve Psychedelics like Ibogaine for Legalization?
Q: Were you excited to hear that this particular drug is now going to be available?
Amy Gibson confirms excitement about the potential policy changes and explains that the order covers several psychedelics, signaling broader research and treatment possibilities.
Hour 4: First Lady Milania Trump holds White House Press Conference on Epstein Ties
Q: What is the core issue being addressed with Milania Trump and Epstein in the emails and files?
The panel discusses alleged associations and the extent to which private communications and DOJ files indicate connections, while noting inconsistencies and the public-facing narrative versus the leaked Epstein files.
Hour 2: Washington Gold Exchange has become Idaho Gold Exchange
Q: Why are you moving your business to Idaho?
Because Washington's sales tax policy on precious metals and coins made it financially sensible to relocate, and Idaho offers a more favorable business climate and tax environment for a gold and silver dealer.
Hour 2: Stanwood reactivates Flock cameras as Spokane County joins Pierce County in shutting them down
Q: If you found someone on a bridge about to jump, what would you do from a libertarian perspective?
I would balance the non-aggression principle with human life considerations, recognizing that preventing harm can be warranted even if it challenges strict non-interference.
