Hocus Potus

"The Main Event" (This should be read in the voice of Howard Cosell)After months of a prolonged rope-a-dope, the presidential race arrives at Defcon Presumptive. Mano a Womano. Nomination Domination. The candidates use their speeches to preview messaging while Steve and Dave look ahead and float (like butterflies) various issues to come; from potential running mates to potential scandals; red meat to tofu and, of course, the ever exciting manufacturing base. This podcast could be the Greatest of All Time. RIP Champ.

"Enter Stage Left" The guys welcome "Liberal Lady" to the show who joins forces with Steve promoting a neo-leftist proletariat, er democratic socialism, er Hillary-ville. Dave is left alone to defend capitalism and the unregulated free market economy as the fur (metaphorical of course) flies on voter suppression vs voter fraud, redistribution of wealth and the Barry Obama legacy.

"Random-onium". The guys are all over the place in this show that is either a "free-form exploration" or just a hot mess. Dave decries the evils of socialism while Steve extols the virtues of Democratic socialism and trumpets his disdain for all things Trump, all while planning his fact finding mission to Puerto Rico to investigate the debt crisis and questionable tan lines. Dave's hate fire for Hilary continues to burn hot and provides a grounding constant for long time listeners

The P/party is over" (Double entendre provided by Steve) Post mortem on Trump's yuuuge Windiana and the continuing bumps in Hilary's road to inevitability. With the drama all but out of the primary, the fellas muse on the rock and roll hall of fame, nfl draft and how big a pinko Steve really is (duh!).

The guys talk about the New York primary; Steve brings back audio from Clinton, Cruz and Drumpf events! Dave answers listener emails and still feels like he's under attack! (He probably is!). We remember Prince!!!!

Dave steers the bus over Steve. Steve pulls up Barry Obama's skirt. A field trip to the Bernie Sanders' rally in da'Bronx. And there's always room for a little Hitler talk!

The guys wade through a "battery" of issues on the Republican side... Steve steps it up for Birdie Sanders and his sweep week! Dave answers a listener question about why he HATES Hillary!

Does party trump violence and who started it anyway!? Dave learns he's a Neoliberal, not that there's anything wrong with that! Steve finally admits it's Hillary time....

Recorded 3/10/16 Episode 4: Dave and Steve review the week then speak with activist Sofia Gallisa Muriente about the Puerto Rican debt crisis and its effect on the election.

Super Tuesday Results. Did the GOP create the fertile ground for Drumpf? Is it a lock for Hillary?Recorded March 4, 2016
