In the most pressing news of the day, Snoop Dogg (formerly known as Snoop Lion) reveals what giving up smoke means to him, and totally isn't just reading copy, gets candid as hell. "Ceasefire," hostage swapping, proportionality, Dr. Eli's Hasbara Outlet Black Friday Sale (don't forget your DSA Cyber Monday sale either!).  J Robinette B sundowns harder than ever and will, in fact, save that kid with the psychic abililties (sniffs hair in order to read minds). Argentina goes full accelerationist with President Milei, his cloned dog advisors, his sister-wife, his chainsaw, his pro-children-for-sale stance, and his *shocking* full-fledged allegience to dollarization  and all things true blue anarcho-capitalistic. Hey, remember Ron Paul? We do, too, against our wishes. An impassioned aside in defense of LA public transit. Stuart Seldowitz gives everyone laughs, the creeps. Children are recruited to sing a song that says the loud part even louder about the annihilation of Gaza. There's a funny AI artwork about parting the sea with the strength of Zionism. More and more bad news. But at least Swedish labor unions are giving Elon Musk some backtalk.Commiserate on Discord: discord.gg/aDf4Yv9PrYSupport: patreon / buzzsproutNever Forget: standwithdanielhale.orgGeneral RecommendationsTim's Recommendation: Get a good night's sleepJosh's Recommendation: Double Feature: Burn After Reading / The Hudsucker ProxyFurther Reading, Viewing, ListeningFull list of links, sources, etc More From Timothy Robert BuechnerWe Don't Know WrestlingWDKW Ko-fiBIG EGG SubstackLocationless Locationsheatdeathpod.comEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Twitter: @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: heatdeathoftheuniversepodcast@gmail.comSupport the show

We spent a lot of time reflecting and discussing with our families how to never forget 99% Hitler Voter Guy. Salon dot com seems to be writing satirical articles now...or are they? Nikki Haley wants us all to use our real names online, exempting herself, Nimarata Randhawa, from this data collection. She also thinks we ought to work until we give up the ghost, 65's way too young for retirement. Biden is certain of the location of TerrorCity but forgot when he was scared by Tony Blinken's death glare at the moment J Robinette B causually called Xi a dictator. We barely skim the surface of the vast and deep ocean of hasbara just from the past week alone.  Plus, learn how to 'displace' and 'cleanse' the pounds away using the genocide stress diet! Commiserate on Discord: discord.gg/aDf4Yv9PrYSupport: patreon / buzzsproutNever Forget: standwithdanielhale.orgGeneral RecommendationsTim's Recommendation: Joseph Montecillo - PREVIEW: Chris Hero vs. Timothy Thatcher | A Rivalry Breakdown (VIDEO NOW ON WEST COAST PRO)Josh's Recommendation: The CurseFurther Reading, Viewing, ListeningFull list of links, sources, etc More From Timothy Robert BuechnerWe Don't Know WrestlingWDKW Ko-fiBIG EGG SubstackLocationless Locationsheatdeathpod.comEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Twitter: @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: heatdeathoftheuniversepodcast@gmail.comSupport the show

The inaugural episode of what will likely turn into a regular type of series of shorter, scripted-ish bonus episodes.Some background, per our Discord:"Karine Jean-Pierre said some typically awful bullshit recently. So that got us talking about Psaki by comparison. Then I found a Psaki simp in her comments on twitter. I began imagining the hell that must exist in the mind of this man who lives for Monday nights with Jen and Maddow. This naturally led to the idea of Psaki erotic fanfiction. Couldn't find any worthwhile, so I decided to write some myself, which is more about the mental state of this pathetic shit lib guy fantasizing (mentally writing erotic fanfic) strangely, impeded by his desire to be Woke to the Max, but still drawn back to his "lovely Jen" again and again. Kind of like an MSNBC/NPR loyalist liberal version of an 8Chan incel troll type. Anyway, we might make this a semi-regular segment and will try it out on the next episode."Commiserate on Discord: discord.gg/aDf4Yv9PrYSupport: patreon / buzzsproutNever Forget: standwithdanielhale.orgLocationless Locationsheatdeathpod.comEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Twitter: @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: heatdeathoftheuniversepodcast@gmail.comSupport the show

Various GOP bullshit. The Monarchy is too funny to exist. Zelensky doing the geopolitical equivalent of panhandling now. It's about time Homer Simpson stops physically terrorizing his son, says supposed "person" at the Guardian. P.S.

Things get a little freeform and loopy. The abandonment of Zelensky. Tony Blinken dressing his son up as Zelesky and daughter as a Ukrainian flag for Halloween. More ghastly atrocities pile up overwhelmingly in 21st century Judaea. Try and pull out of the deathspiral of the topic into lighter climes: We put Biden's two Press Secretaries on the binary scale, this leads to satirical erotic fanfiction being written by yours truly, and then we dish about Ronnie DeSant's height-enhancing boots. [Note: I started talking about the existence of the Jenin Horse statue, made from exploded car and ambulance pieces and meant to be a symbol of hope for those in the Jenin refugee camp, and Palestinians more broadly. I get sidetracked from finishing the point of bringing it up which was that even the statue made from war crime remnants has been ripped away, stolen and destroyed by the IOF.]Commiserate on Discord: discord.gg/aDf4Yv9PrYSupport: patreon / buzzsprout / buymeacoffeeNever Forget: standwithdanielhale.orgGeneral RecommendationsTim's Recommendation:  YuMex (Yugoslav Mexican Music)Josh's Recommendations: 1) Gen V 2) The Beatles latest single "Now and Then" Further Reading, Viewing, ListeningFull list of links, sources, etc More From Timothy Robert BuechnerWe Don't Know WrestlingWDKW Ko-fiBIG EGG SubstackLocationless Locationsheatdeathpod.comEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Twitter: @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: heatdeathoftheuniversepodcast@gmail.comSupport the show

Tennessee makes being unhoused a felony. In California, mobile homelessness is on the rise, but don't worry, there are some safe parking lots to sleep in. Another Californian development: The Ebony Alert system is finally here! Space Force continues to be uncanny and just off-beat enough subsection of the US Armed Forces. Mike Pence shocks dozens of his dozens of fans by dropping out of the presidential race. Trump promises buckets of enemies blood and blowhard Nikki Haley tries to out-Trump him (all at the recent Republican Jewish Coalition Conferene (RJCC, duh) in Las Vegas). Japanese people pay money to relearn how to smile. The anniversary of the Halloween tragedy in Seoul last year gets Josh going off on a little rant. Israel-Palestine conflict only gets worse.

An olde tyme friend visits us. We have a chatabout. We each section one another for crimes against comedy/humanity. We vent spleens about Israel etc. We digress, digressively. Who will be possibly the next Pointless/Demagogical Mayoral-King-Duke of the USofA?  We talk some news of the weird. Australia gets America's wang transplanted upon it. A duo of idiots pretends to kidnap themselves-ish. Neo-Nazis collect insects for the sake of the Fuhrer (also, cars of the same entomological genus are collected, similarily). We talk Artifical Intellgience, Cronenbergian porn of the weird, and its ascending trajectory. We talk. Talk some more. Jason dazzles us with some tales from r/LinkedInLunatics. I, the Josh voice, forcefully and impassionately recommend that you read and/or at least listen to Whalefall, because it's mind/body/soul-bogglingly great. We sign off. We "We" ourselves into inanimate pulp and continue the life-cycle, waving goodbye for eternity.

Kevin McCallister's been demoted to scamming the nation and fistfucking the globe from a less visible post. Political theater prevails as the dominant mindvirus. Commander Biden's list of crimes expands further. A Danish artist hilariously cons the High Art/Tax Evasion/Money Laundering World. Chicago TV news crew robbed in a very meta-fied way.  The depraved aeronautical sciences strike another beautiful soul down once again. Trump's fraud trial serves up more fodder for hidden messages to be disseminated through Poland Spring, his Real Doll attorney and, well, We're Lovin' It™, folks.  Vovan and Lexus get more people in positions of power (Sarah Ashton Cirillo in this case) to belt out the quiet parts so loudly that upon finding out that they've been duped she claimed that the 30+ minute video and audio record of her abysmal remarks was a Russian conspiracy deepfake. We mourn Bernard Sanders' continued downfall and irrelevance as he poorly responds to Code Pink's anti-war protests. Jamaal Bowman seems to think certain fire alarms trigger openings into fun places like escape rooms, BatCaves, or alternate dimensions in which the wave phony socialists in Congress weren't just status quo at best, a more insideous evil at worst. Elon Musk did some dumb shit, shockingly, improbably.

South Koreans have a bizarre way of keeping track of people's ages, and it's going out of style. Sean Penn is a vile idiot who should've saved us all on 9/11. Some run of the mill tech-bro got a wild hair up his ass and is emotionlessly, delusionally, grandiosly and obsessively chasing after immortality via some hybrid of internalized Mormonism and The Singularity style futurism guru insanity. Cancer cases have skyrocketed in the last 30 years. AI-equipped robots are CEOs now.

We briefly revisit the Metaverse and its grand announcement that they've finally added (sort of) the god-kissed locomotive powers of legs to the little Metaverse representation pixel-creatures. We digress about the man-o-sphere for a bit. Airplanes and their great lack of crashing into one another: humdrum miracle or vile affront to the Almighty? Space Force is weird and its patches and insignia are even weirder (click here to follow along visually as we discuss them). Republicans are scrambling to do some PR with the term "pro-life" and the results are predictably baby-brained. Digressions on the Schumacher Batman movies and Lauren Bobert's recent vaping/groping-related ejection from Beetlejuice the musical. Then we talk about the phenomenon of Biden's Vibrant Economy and the whining plebes within it, and how there's indeed a Silent Depression descended upon the land, despite what Democratic Party partisans will have you believe. Quick hits on Hunter Biden's legal issues, NATO's role in the flooding of Libya, and how even the Pentagon is now warning that our Geriactric Leaders (Feinstein, McConnell, Biden) are not only embarrassing and dangerous but national security threats.Commiserate on Discord: discord.gg/aDf4Yv9PrYSupport: patreon / buzzsprout / buymeacoffeeNever Forget: standwithdanielhale.orgGeneral RecommendationsTim's Recommendation: Get an abortionJosh's Recommendation: TelemarketersFurther Reading, Viewing, ListeningFull list of links, sources, etcLocationless Locationsheatdeathpod.comEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Twitter: @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: heatdeathoftheuniversepodcast@gmail.comSupport the show

We talk through and detour from topics such as microplastics in our brains; the nature of well-crafted clickbait via murder-by-dessert and mailing cadaver bits 'n' pieces through a FB/Meta group; other podcasts; a Nebraskan governor whose officially signed a bill into law declaring Dudes to Rock; how the anti-trans movement has and will continue to accidentally destroy itself; bad journalism about toxic dudes-rocking-ness being stopped dead cuz 2023 said so; Scientology's legal grasp upon its own e-meter IP; a glorious individual named Reza Baluchi who just wants to sail in peace with his knives and homemade hamster-wheel shaped vessel; the novelistic sequel to Forrest Gump; the nihilistic knotted heart of our dear gerontocracy; and more.Commiserate on Discord: discord.gg/aDf4Yv9PrYSupport: patreon.com/heatdeathpod + buzzsprout.com/heatdeathoftheuniverseNever Forget: standwithdanielhale.orgGeneral RecommendationsTim's Recommendation: Union MembershipJosh's Recommendation: Mask GirlFurther Reading, Viewing, ListeningFull list of links, sources, etcLocationless Locationsheatdeathpod.comEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Twitter: @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: heatdeathoftheuniversepodcast@gmail.comSupport the show

We take a brisk tour through various current AI implications. A "free" 55-inch flat screen TV that merely wants to turn your living room into a advert-hellscape. A possibly inebriated driver switches seats with his dog, the officer in question may never notice the oddness of this. In Portugal, canine lifespan records, shattered. Some annoying person ate a piece of art made by another possibly even more annoying person. 500 pounds of pasta mysteriously left alongside a stream in New Jersey. Another 500 pounds of pasta may well be running for President of the Republic. Ronald Dion DeSantis audibly reveals his micro-penis to a Twitter crowd of 700,000—only 300,000 stay afterward. We give positive cover to two "Florida Men," shattering stale stereotypes. Various people intentionally and extremely isolate themselves, independently, for science.  Did a man really collapse his skull and remain alive due to an addiction to energy drinks?  Heroes all around us and also a villain who jostled open the door of an airborne passenger plane. Commiserate on Discord: discord.gg/aDf4Yv9PrYSupport: patreon.com/heatdeathpod + buzzsprout.com/heatdeathoftheuniverseNever Forget: standwithdanielhale.orgGeneral RecommendationsJason's Recommendations: 1)  The Last Kingdom 2) Vinland SagaJosh's Recommendations: 1) Emily is a Criminal 2) Modest Mouse Discography from This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About (1996) to  Everywhere and His Nasty Parlor Tricks (2001)Further Reading, Viewing, ListeningFull list of links, sources, etcLocationless Locationsheatdeathpod.comEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Twitter: @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: heatdeathoftheuniversepodcast@gmail.comSupport the show

Another overstuffed episode (with leftovers for next time). French labor unions cut off electricity and gas to targeted homes of politicians and billionaires. A string of articles showing more hubris and self-cannibalization in the nervous system of USofA. "Nothing will fundamentally change, jack, unless it's for the worse!" AMLO dramatically increases Mexico's minimum wage and human-shaped triple-bleached dough with hair and teeth, David Frum, tells us why he's a no good autocrat. Updates on the great balloon menace.
