About this listen

Do you call the Show-Me state home? Are you sick of burying your head in the sand about national and local political issues? Are you too overwhelmed to even think about consuming news due to the sheer quantity? We realized through conversations with people in all different settings, most have NO IDEA what's going on in our local government. We decided to do this podcast to cover the shenanigans that we think is especially important for our friends and family to know. We do say a few cuss words so we wouldn't recommend listening while your kids are in the car!

  • Your Energy Is the New Currency and the Death of 2A feat. Tony
    Feb 1 2026

    @anthon7yandrews

    The war against the citizen isn't coming; it’s already here. From the militarization of ICE to the calculated recruitment of impoverished youth into the state’s meat grinder, the system is working exactly as intended. We’re deep-diving into the memos they didn't want you to read—like Roger Stone’s blueprint for disarming the "wrong" people—and the social media algorithms designed to keep you too distracted to care. We don’t do hope, we do strategy. Join us as we discuss collective action, the power of a general strike, and how to reclaim your attention from the digital vampire. If you're looking for a "both sides" debate, move on. If you want to survive the surveillance state, welcome home.

  • The Fight For Missouri's 4th Congressional District feat. Jordan Herrera
    Jan 30 2026

    Politics is currently a slow-motion car crash, and Jordan Herrera is tired of watching from the sidelines. Running for Missouri’s 4th Congressional District, the military veteran joins us to dissect the "constitutional coup" currently masquerading as our government. We skip the thoughts and prayers to tackle the grim stuff: why redistricting is a shell game, the pervasive rot of sexual assault in the military, and a healthcare system that treats preventative care like a luxury and end-of-life care like a cash cow. Jordan argues that if we’re actually "pro-life," we should probably start by making housing affordable and healthcare a right rather than a privilege for the lucky few. It’s a conversation about evidence, accountability, and the radical idea that Missourians deserve a representative who actually understands the struggle of the 99%.

  • Grooming in High Places: The Troubling Patterns of Political Elite feat. Tony
    Jan 26 2026

    @anthon7yandrews

    This episode takes a hard look at the serious allegations of grooming and misconduct that continue to follow major political figures. We dive into the controversial history of Matt Gaetz and Jim Jordan, questioning why certain patterns of behavior are allowed to persist within powerful political circles. The conversation doesn't hold back as we explore the confusing story of Nestor Gaetz and the disturbing details found in the Epstein flight logs. We also address the psychological impact on survivors, specifically focusing on the allegations made against Donald Trump and the systemic failures that often shield those at the top from real accountability. It’s a heavy but necessary discussion on why the justice system so often fails the people it’s supposed to protect.
