Veteran marijuana activist and podcaster "Radical" Russ Belville records this cannabis news, interview, and comedy podcast live from the Treasure Valley on the border of America's Last Absolute Prohibition State—Idaho. Russ brings you a unique look at the thriving cannabis industry in Ontario, Oregon—Idaho's cannabis capital—and the fight to end Idaho's antiquated marijuana prohibition laws for medical marijuana patients and adult cannabis consumers alike. Hear from growers, researchers, businesspeople, doctors, patients, politicians, activists and more.
It seems this week the ethereal orchestra needed some percussion, because the Reaper picked off four drummers from America, England, and South Africa. We’ve also got international artists from Norway, Lebanon, and India, and for classical fans, some piano and harpsichord.
The Reaper took it a bit easy this week, so we’ve got artists from the entire month of September to catch up on, including singers from Austria, Israel, and Cuba, a bassist, a trumpeter, and a flautist from the USA, and musicians from Australia and Austin, Texas. You’ll also hear from our headliner, the lead vocalist from the 60s group The Association.
This week the Reaper has selected for us classic girl group singers, hardcore American punks, some jazz-fusion funk, and an international lineup from England, Belgium, Croatia, and the Dominican Republic, bookended with mellow country from both sides of the pond.
A free-form rant on Alex Jones, the Trump kids, Saudi Arabia, Elon Musk, Hollywood scabs, and more entities in dire need of some consequences.
Last week, the Reaper overdid it by taking from us three headline acts. This week, we return to our world tour of the obscure, including rap from Mexico and Nigeria, American ska, English country-rock, a triple shot of jazz, some Christian Rock, and pop singers from the Czech Republic, Turkey, India, and France.
As UNC goes into its second active shooter lockdown this semester, I explain how progressives need to treat the 2nd Amendment like conservatives treated Roe v. Wade, with a half-century plan to couple ownership of modern arms with membership in a county militia.
Republicans run on the concept that government is the problem, government is dysfunctional, government can’t work, and then they get elected and prove it.
With it’s abortion bans, abortion trafficking ban, abortion bounties, faith-healing child abuse exemption and more, Idaho is the state voted Most Likely to Become Gilead in my latest poll of me.
Some weeks the Reaper takes us on a trip into the obscure. This week is definitely not one of those. The Reaper was busy Labor Day Weekend and took from us an All Star, a Dream Weaver, and the King of the Parrotheads, each of whom could be our headliner.
Now that Republicans have succeeded in overturning Roe v. Wade and establishing abortion bans in most of the red states, they’re concerned that being “pro-life” is going to abort their chances of re-election, so they want to re-brand as “pro-baby.”
I often hear folks say Republicans and Democrats are “two wings of the same bird” or “two sides of the same coin.” I demonstrate the statistics and policies to show how only one side of the coin makes us more coin and only one bird is shitting all over minorities.
A Wall Street Journal poll on the personal qualities of Joe Biden vs. Donald Trump has me wondering if anybody paid any attention to 2017–2020?
I used to be a Twitter power user, but since Elongated Muskrat has turned it into a Nazi pub, I have since migrated to Threads. Whaddaya gonna do? It’s the social media run by the lesser-evil billionaire. I’m also on BlueSky, Mastodon, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok as well, just not as often.
