Smart Girl Politics

The U.S. men's soccer team debuts their new woke jerseys. Also, Donald Trump doesn't seem inclined to "drain the swamp" when it comes to Kevin McCarthy.

Since we are getting down to the wire, I thought we could talk about some of this cycle’s great slate of Republican candidates (and their Dem challengers that deserve to be voted out of office).

Teri is back behind the mic, giving you an update on: her life these last six months, where Smart Girl Politics is headed and her new project. Please be sure to go to https://fierce.substack.com/ to join in the fun!

What better way to celebrate our country's independence than by getting your first gun? Teri did just that -- and she thinks her Sig Sauer is pretty cool. And Stacy is looking to break her family out of New Jersey for a vacation at an undisclosed location. Also, Teri's tweet goes viral, Bush 43 alumni go all in for Biden and schools are going to screw everything up this Fall.

The time for doing nothing is far behind us. On this week's show, Teri and Stacy talk about the need for the right to fight back. Teri goes on a rant about the local high school changing its mascot and why the school doesn't deserve her kids. The ladies also take on Karen Attiah, the WaPo editor whose tweet got Stacy steaming mad. And, finally, tips on shedding the 'rona weight we've all put on.

Whoa, whoa, whoa ... Stacy spent how much on her daughter's haircut? And Teri's fixing to fight back against the chaos dividing our country, but how? Are Dads the answer? Also, the ladies have some Netflix suggestions, but beware, Stacy's are risque!

Teri and Stacy are slowly getting back to reality, with trip to Marshalls, the mall and the gym. Also, Teri makes the case that more Karens are needed, and the ladies discuss why a skin care company felt the need to attack JK Rowling.

We're talking sports on this episode -- from the Lake Placid Olympics to the famous Joe Montana-Dwight Clark pass to Fingers' long, painful journey with the Detroit Lions. Also, Teri has many crushes (spoiler alert: Bucky Dent is mentioned), not to mention her odd collection of memorabilia, and Fingers has a hate/hate relationship with soccer.

The race is on to see who's got the worse governor -- Teri (Ralph Northam) or Stacy (Phil Murphy)? In Stacy's favor is the fact that Murphy kind of, sort of dropped COVID restrictions all at once ... but not really. Teri argues that Northam is worse due to his racist past and his shenanigans as a lame duck governor. Also, Stacy has an ingenious hack for those of us badly needing a trip to the hair salon.

Teri has finally dragged the original Smart Girl, Stacy Mott, back into the fold. Stacy explains where she's been the last six years, and the girls reminisce about the past -- including their funny weekend with Andrew Breitbart. They also talk about how tea party rallies compare to today's rally-riots and how we get past the divide.

Teri remains behind the Iron Curtain that is Northern Virginia, so Fingers regales her with tales of freedom from the heartland. It looks a lot like BBQ and bourbon. Then they get all Gen Xish talking about their favorite childhood cartoons -- Teri prefers the groovy 70s ones, while Fingers is more of a rad 80s guy. And what was the deal with H.R. Pufnstuf, anyway? SPONSOR: You're not alone -- a lot of us are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues and sleeplessness. The good news is you don't need to suffer!

We have salad on our minds this week. Will salad bars be a thing of the past in a post-COVID19 world? Speaking of salad (days), remember when MTV used to be great?

On this week's Gen Xish episode, Teri and Fingers talk about preparations for a pending meat shortage, the fallout for China and why the Left can't tell the difference between the Gadsden and Confederate flags. They also go over the best one hit wonders from the 80s, including ... Rappin' Rodney? And can the woke crowd handle "Turning Japanese"?
