07/17/24 Show 216 : A Plea For Better Role Models

The Gerard Cosloy Radio Hour (That Feels Like Two Hours)

like many of you, I read over the weekend the accused gunman behind a recent unsuccessful assassination attempt was seen wearing a shirt promoting someone or something known as Demolition Ranch. My first thought was, “it’s pretty sweet after all these years that Barry Darsow and Bill Eadie maintain a ranch together,” but it turns out this has nothing to do with Ax & Smash, but is instead the branding of some YouTube weaponry nonsense. At a time when pollyanna calls for “unity” ring across the airwaves, wouldn’t our society be better off if we watched Darsow and Eadie tending to animals, crops, etc., whatever farmers get up to, instead of some jacked up jagoff brandishing a military grade firearm? If you’ve never phoned in before, now is a perfect time (because the call screener just quit)
