Summary

This week is an attempt to organize disparate content pieces from the past few weeks. Thoughts on third parties, Trump’s address to the joint session of Congress (which we mistakenly referred to as the State of the Union, oops!), notes on the final non-negotiables and random thoughts Max is working through. We’ve got a mashup of sorts on our hands so prepare for a bit of rambling.

0:00.0	Come listen to the man who knew we'd finally had enough, so we started up a podcast and called upon his friends.
0:13.0	No matter where you're from or your unique political bend, here's the story of our perfect American ass.
0:20.0	Max in 99 with the facts to blow your mind.
0:24.1	The nanny with the wicked sound design.
0:27.4	So grab a seat and pour yourself a glass of writer's tears.
0:31.0	Unfucking the republic is about to begin.

0:45.3	Oh boy. I am all over the place right now on fuckers.
0:48.3	I have so many notes on different topics and newsletter drafts, pieces of our syllabus, notes for the final chapter
0:55.9	of our non-negotiables, a response to the state of the union. Jesus Christ. So today I just wanted
1:02.1	to kind of pull a few of them together in a mash-up episode because our YouTube audience and our
1:06.5	podcast audience cross over a bit and there are still many more of you that are here than on

1:30.9	existing one. So if you have any trouble, just email us at UNFTRPod at Gmail and 99 will walk you
1:36.7	through it. Also, Manny Faces has a Discord as well and it's really built out and hopping over there.
1:42.2	So make sure to sign up for that one. And Manny, please punch in right now with any details on how to join that one.
1:49.0	Yes, sir. Similarly, swing over to hip hop can saveamerica.com slash discord.
