    Music Mondays… for now

    I’m going to do a little tiny music podcast. Podcast Index and Podcasting 2.0 have developed the technology that allows listeners to pay artists as they listen to their music. This is an end run around the music licensing racket that has ruined music since record companies were founded. The companies make all the money…

  • Vivek Ramaswamy is everywhere

    Vivek Ramaswamy is everywhere

    I wonder if this strategy will work. He is literally on every podcast, network, and YouTube video. If you want to interview him he’s there.

    Question: How large do you have to be to get fat shamed by Lizzo?

    It seems every day there something more stupid happening than the next. If we live in a simulation can someone please flag our overlords to reboot the system? Three of Lizzo’s former dancers have accused the singer of sexual harassment and creating a hostile work environment in a lawsuit filed Tuesday. They also allege that…

    I’m all for the Ramaswamy Revolution

    I hope this guy goes far in the primaries because I want to see him debate the rest of the Republican field. It would be highly entertaining.
