Smart Mouths Podcast

We enjoyed the three person episode so much last week, we decided to do another one. This time with Elysa, Greg, and Micah (Elysa is and always will be the Peanut Butter in the middle of the bread though).

Pretty much here’s what was discussed on this show:

-Health Care

Besides that, not much else. We had a Texas filled backwash and WTF news was more sensual than ever. If you get to the end of the episode without falling asleep from all the Health Care talk, we will give you all proverbial gold stars, so let us know that you listened to the whole thing!

But because we’re pretty sure we didn’t entirely succeed in our liberal plot to kill you with boredom, here are a few hard and fast links to help you better understand HC reform:

-General Fact Sheet
-List of Immediate Changes to the System
-The Cost of Inaction
-Additional Shit for Masochists

Lastly, because we recognize our slightly communist liberal bias, here are the bills themselves so that you can skip past our socialist propaganda:

-H.R. 3590, Health Care Reform
-H.R. 4872, the So-Called “Fix” Bill that Amends H.R. 3590

Small show this week, just Matt, Elysa, and Penny. But what we lack in quantity we definitely make up for in quality! In this week’s episode:

-Elysa makes her hosting debut and watch out, she did great!!
-Lesbian girl can’t take her girlfriend to prom AND her school cancels it. Not cool.
-What on earth is going on in the Texas School Board? That’s not rhetorical. We really want to know.
-Matt reviews Alice in Wonderland
-RIP Corey Haim
-Backwash gets a little heated and Matt’s head almost explodes. He then becomes fairly constipated.
-Luckily a game of Google that SHIZ helps clear his constipation…and you better watch out because Jesus is a pretty cool Hufflepuff.
-Finally, another dead president joins us. And this time, he makes a very important phone call.

We’ve got good news and bad news. Good news is that Laura was on this episode!!! Bad news is that she was only on for around two minutes because her Costa Rican internet connections sucks and her skype stopped working. Oh well. We truly valued her insight, wisdom and contribution for those first two minutes of the show.

In any event, it was a great show! In this episode:

-We talked Oscars and one of us comes out of a proverbial closet.
-Senator Ashburn from California is gay. We don’t care. We just wish he didn’t either.
-There were Elections in Iraq! They actually have good excuses when they don’t turn out to vote.
-Betty White to appear on SNL. YES!
-Reconciliation. Wazzat?
-Lil Wayne going to jail.
-Backwash on Austria, Animals in Captivity and the Tsunami (or lack thereof)
-Dr. Smart Mouths makes its return!
-Sad to say, Penny tried to do take over WTF news. You’ll all be happy when Micah returns next time.

Wow, was this week chock full of news OR WHAT? Luckily we have a NEWS podcast to talk about this stuff, otherwise we would have had to find a way to relate these stories to Harry Potter or Twilight and let’s face it. That would have been tough. Luckily for Andrew, Elysa, Greg, Matt and Micah they had a venue to discuss the excitement of the past week.

In this episode:
-Listen to the Smart Mouths Book Club episode!
-The Smart Mouths are really sad about the deadly Orca Whale attack in Sea World. Everyone has issues with the treatment of animals, but Andrew will be happy to go to Sea World for free if you can get him in.
-Health Care Summit. Republican key words are…key.
-Chil-AY Earthquake and Ha-Wa-II Tsunami
-Olympics Redux. Mostly talk on the USA/Canada Hockey Game (We begrudgingly congratulate the Canadians on their win. There, we said it.)
-Whats the deal with American Idol this season?
-Backwash tackles our criticism of Michael Phelps, webcamgate, and a nice note from a listener.
-We gooooogle that shiz again.
-WTF News is still messed up. What else can we say?
