Hello and welcome to Something's Off with Andrew Heaton. I'm your host Andrew Heaton and I'm wearing three pairs of underwear.

That's how well insulated we are from each other.

Also we're not in the same room

We're going to talk to a fellow political orphan here in a minute

We're at least somebody that's a little bit off kilter which I appreciate

We're we're given the system a lot of the time where you're either on Red Team or Blue Team, you're a conservative

Republican or you're a progressive Democrat.

I think there's a wide swath of us that don't fit into either of those categories or might

straddle the two or perhaps has a foot in one and a

foot in something else that's not one of the two. Hence why I oftentimes identify as a political

orphan on the show. And I like being able to get into the mindset of other people to try and figure

out where they're coming from to see if there is a different constellation of

ideas that we haven't previously seen and we're going to do that here in a little bit

with Colin but before we do

we got to pay the bills and that means a word from our sponsor. Something's

off with Andrew Heaton is brought to you by formal plumbers, the best dressed service to dislodge socks, sand, and children's toys from a bathtub drain.

You're an Italian plumber who for some reason lives in Japan or something.

And you're determined to rescue a beautiful princess who is captured by a squat,

pixelated toad monster.

You can only do it by murdering turtles.

Your brother, who is a slightly taller Italian plumber, says,

hey Mario, why do we have to kill all these turtles?
