Trump the Thumper vs Glass Joe went down last week in a relatively tame final round of debates.

Podcast Episode 301: The Only Thing We Have to Fear
Franklin Roosevelt delivered one of the most important speeches in American history on March 4, 1933.

I discuss Roosevelt’s First Inaugural Address in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

I discuss the article and some of the idiotic statements in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.
