Hey, everybody.

Welcome to the Weekender edition of the Muckrake podcast.

Oh, very nice.

There it is.

What we got there?

That's a logger is what that is.

So we're to the weekend.

We made it through so much absurdity and so much strife.

I'm Jared Yates-Dak.

I'm here's always with Nick Housewoman.

Nick, how are you feeling? How you feeling on Eve this weekend? I am feeling awesome. We're having people over on Sunday for a barbecue in our neighbor. Actual neighbors in L.A. We are friendly with our neighbors and they're going to come over and hang out. that doesn't sound right because I have heard that Los Angeles is a dystopian nightmare hellscape where only liberals and leftists live. Well,

the word on the street is that they're actually going to walk to my house, which is really exciting.

That seems like that's tempting fate. Yeah, then out in that crime metropolis. Oh, well, listen, crime is everywhere, man. This is, we live in a, it's just like Batman or the dark night where we're living in now.

What I love about that, and on that note, this isn't actually a segment we're going to talk about, but one of the great things that has happened because America is just absolutely insane with this shit is like all of these police stations and police forces are asking for more money after they've

been outfitted with weapons of war because they're not able to do their jobs. Isn't that incredible

that they just continue to keep getting the money even though they don't earn it? Well, there's an interesting parallel here to like maybe teachers who need money as well.
