Today's episode is about the extremely online topic of Bernie vs. Warren. We apologize in advance, we recorded this before the anti-anti-backlash. We'll be back with regularly scheduled programming next week and won't be offended if you SKIP. Oh and we also talk about rioting miners in Pike County, Kentucky, and Moms4Housing in Oakland.

Another episode, another Beach Boys reference. On this year's opening episode we cover...JD Vance?? as well as America's military empire.

This week we huff a whole bunch of whiteout and get totally psychedelic. We talk about selling out to the mainstream media and then take a look at the political scene. Then we take a trip to an oil rig with Bret Stephens and Gail Collins. That's right, it's Act 2 of the political thriller gripping the nation: The Conversation. You don't want to miss it.

All the hottest and best takes about the Kentucky governor's election

Kentucky Sports Radio's Matt Jones joins us to talk politics ahead of today's election.

We talk travels, run-ins with the law, depression, pleasure activism, Silas House, and we even use the Quija to speak with the (apparently still-living) spirit of one Jeffrey Epstein.

Part 1 of our Halloween special has Tanya and Tom swapping haint tales, and dabbling in the dark arts with our friends Carrie, Matt, and their daughter Ophelia while Tarence is on vacation.

The title of this one says it all.

We take a dive into the Joshua Brown/Botham Jean case and discuss how cops and prisons are indeed destroying the planet.

We're tired from tour folks but we're here to talk about impeachment and argue about what class is. Support the Patreon: www.patreon.com/trillbillyworkersparty

A rundown of news items from the last few weeks: Biden falling apart, Warren surging, What To Do About Bernie, and radioactive messages to the future Support the Patreon: www.patreon.com/trillbillyworkersparty

Our very own Tanya Bernice Turner went down to Kingsport, Tennessee, to speak with community members protesting the closure of a neonatal intensive care unit, or NICU, at privately-owned Holston Valley Medical Center. The protest has been going on for over 140 days with little-to-no media coverage, and so we thought it was something you all should know about. This interview features @danithepoet who you can follow for updates. As Dani explains, "The reason this matters is we are the test case for rural America. They intend to roll this out everywhere across the country. And it should scare you that a healthcare corporation and a couple of politicians can make some laws that tie the hands of the federal government."

We've got a live one here folks. We cover everything from gun control to Jonathan Franzen to Chris Paul Hayes. Then we do a Tony award-winning dramatic reading, wherein Tanya plays Gail Collins and Tom plays Bret Stephens. Support the Patreon: www.patreon.com/trillbillyworkersparty
