Do you call the Show-Me state home? Are you sick of burying your head in the sand about national and local political issues? Are you too overwhelmed to even think about consuming news due to the sheer quantity? We realized through conversations with people in all different settings, most have NO IDEA what's going on in our local government. We decided to do this podcast to cover the shenanigans that we think is especially important for our friends and family to know. We do say a few cuss words so we wouldn't recommend listening while your kids are in the...

Missouri's Bare Minimum: Living Wages & Maternal Health Crises
Jan 10, 2026

In this episode, we crawl out of our sickbeds just in time to watch the Missouri legislature trip over its own redistricting maps. Maternal health outcomes in Missouri are plummeting, yet the military-industrial complex still gets a blank check thanks to a total lack of congressional oversight. We tackle the 'Missouri math' of trying to survive on a minimum wage that hasn't met the cost of living since the invention of the wheel. But hey, since the bar for governance is officially underground, we’re spending the final segment explaining why you should run for office—because at this poin...

Maybe We Should Audit Fort Knox feat. Tony
Jan 02, 2026

@anthon7yandrews

America didn’t suddenly “lose its way.” It was built like this. This podcast looks at corruption in the U.S. the old-fashioned way—by following the money, the power, and the people who keep getting away with it. From the industrial era that reshaped society (and not in a cute way) to intelligence agencies that operate more like organized crime with better PR, we break down how the system actually works. We talk media manipulation, the chaos and power games of the Trump years, the Epstein case and its very uncomfortable implications, and why voting r...

The Year of the Whistleblower feat. Tony
Dec 27, 2025

FOLLOW TONY ON THE CESSPOOL AKA TWITTER- @anthon7yandrews

This podcast explores the growing demand for accountability in systems of power, examining the Epstein files, political responsibility, and the failures that allow abuse and human trafficking to persist. Through survivor stories, critical analysis of social media’s influence on public discourse, and discussions on the intersection of religion, power, and corruption, the show confronts how truth is often distorted by misinformation and conspiracy theories. Centered on activism, community building, and the need for parallel justice systems, this podcast challenges listeners to think critically, collaborate across communities, and en...

May the Odds Be Ever In Your Favor
Dec 24, 2025

The political climate right now feels increasingly absurd and, at times, outright dystopian. This episode looks at government accountability through FBI leadership changes, Missouri’s troubled economic policies, and the way political figures rarely seem to learn from past failures. We also touch on media image-making, fusion energy wrapped in political intrigue, and a public that’s becoming more aware—and more skeptical—of how power actually works.

Gonadal Integrity and the Battle Over Bodily Autonomy
Dec 15, 2025

In this episode, we examine pre-filed Missouri legislation that threatens women’s rights and bodily autonomy, highlighting how reproductive laws often ignore medical realities and create lasting harm. We explore the impact of forced pregnancy policies on the foster care system, the role of political corruption and lobbying, and how Supreme Court decisions reflect a system driven by money and power. The conversation expands to military accountability, U.S. actions in Venezuela, and the responsibility of corporate leaders to speak out for social justice and human rights.

Donicka and the Deep State feat. Tony
Nov 25, 2025

We blitz through the week’s hottest controversies including Epstein’s connections, Kushner’s influence, and the wave of psy-ops shaping public perception. Add in the COVID-19 vs. HIV debate, deregulation fallout, talk of a “new world order,” transnational organized crime, the Qatar plane deal, and the legacy of mind-control experiments. With whistleblower struggles, media manipulation, and demands for government transparency, this episode is your fast, sarcastic crash course in questioning the narrative.

Eric Schmitt, SNAP Benefits, and the Corruption That’s Crushing Us
Nov 22, 2025

We explore the sinister ties between big banks, corporate donations, and the politicians who turn a blind eye to the suffering of everyday Americans. And let’s not forget religious organizations......should they really maintain their tax-exempt status while wading into politics? With military actions that raise serious ethical questions and a government increasingly owned by corporations, this episode is a wake-up call for anyone who believes in a fair, just system. Tune in for a conversation that goes beyond the headlines and takes a hard look at the corrupt forces working behind the scenes to manipulate your life.

GUEST KEVIN ANNETT: The Church, The State, and the Silence: Why Citizen Courts Are Rising
Nov 15, 2025

In this jaw-dropping episode, we dive into the controversial investigations of Kevin Annett, a long-time advocate for survivors of church-run residential schools and institutional abuse. For over 30 years, Annett has pushed to expose what he calls hidden crimes within powerful systems, from churches to governments to global financial networks. We explore the shadow side of history, including allegations of church involvement in the abuse of Indigenous children, covert programs tied to mind-control experiments like MKUltra, and the networks involved in human trafficking. Annett discusses why he believes certain institutions, including courts and media, avoid touching these issues - and...

Hiding in Plain Sight feat. Tony!
Nov 08, 2025

In this episode, we talk about why working families rely on SNAP benefits. Hint: it’s not because they’re living the high life on government-funded charcuterie boards. It’s because many corporations still behave like paying a living wage is a mythical concept, like Bigfoot or affordable housing.

We dive into how the middle class keeps the entire economy running, yet somehow keeps getting treated like the “optional” middle child. Then we take a detour into the world of politics, where manipulation is basically a sport and women running for office get critiqued on their policies and their...

No Kings, Just Guys Who Think They Are
Oct 31, 2025

The “No Kings” rally drew a crowd — proof that people are fed up. From protests that mix humor and anger, to ICE’s ballooning budget and the military’s quiet moves in the Caribbean, this episode looks at how power keeps expanding while citizens push back. We talk student loans, trade, and why satire might be the last honest form of protest.

DID YOU MEAN TO VOTE FOR A DIAGNOSIS???

2025 called — it wants its sanity back. From Amish peace to political chaos, we’re watching history replay itself, just with more hashtags and fewer ethics. The CDC’s under fire, Trump’s still fishing for gold stars, and the voting machines may or may not be owned by your cousin’s crypto startup. It’s the same circus — just new clowns.

Cognitive Dissonance in Politics: Why People Defend the Indefensible ft. Tony
Sep 26, 2025

@anthon7yandrews

Join us with Tony as we tackle free speech — that magical right people confuse with “say anything without consequences.” Algorithms are now our overlords, documentaries try to clean up the mess, and cognitive dissonance keeps politics spinning. Meanwhile, scandals involving politicians and child abuse remind us that accountability is apparently optional. And political “compromise”? Just code for selling your soul for a seat at the table.

Missouri: Hot Mess Express and Red Carpet Dictator Treatment

Welcome to Missouri, where it’s so hot even protests are sweating democracy out of existence, but don’t worry — a $2 million stealth bomber flyover made sure taxpayers felt the burn too. While politicians swap awkward handshakes with Putin and Gavin Newsom sharpens his 2028 audition tape, Missouri public schools slide down the rankings faster than grocery prices climb. Meanwhile, St. Charles may get a shiny new data center (because what’s transparency when you can have tech bros and higher utility bills?). Media spin is losing ground to independent voices, gender politics are still stuck in the 1950s, and we’re le...

80 Years of Wisdom: A Woman Who Lived Before Women’s Rights feat. Kate K.
Aug 30, 2025

This week, we dive into the shockingly controversial idea that women should gasp value education and financial literacy—wild, right? We explore how personal experiences shape views on women’s rights, why divorce can be the ultimate glow-up, and how single mothers are basically running society on caffeine and pure grit. The political climate isn’t exactly rolling out the red carpet for women’s rights, and healthcare access, especially around abortion, is becoming a luxury item. We call out societal pressures that keep women stuck and remind listeners that self-worth isn’t optional, it’s survival.

Strap in for a rollercoaster of political absurdity as we use humor sharper than a gerrymandered district line to unpack America’s ongoing circus. From Billy Long’s blink-and-you-miss-it stint as IRS commissioner to Laura Loomer’s Arby's mishap, this episode skewers the instability of leadership and the drama-hungry media machine. We’ll even revisit the footlong sandwich incident that proves public safety can be derailed by carbs. Missouri’s gerrymandering disaster takes center stage, alongside grim discussions about shootings and political dysfunction, but don’t worry—we lighten the mood with a side of Gavin Newsom’s social media savviness...

Along the way, we examine why CEOs are in the crosshairs, how media narratives twist public perception, and why public outrage may be the only force left to hold the powerful accountable.

Andrew Bailey is busy protecting corporations from the trauma of accountability, while actual Afghan allies get shown the door for having the audacity to believe U.S. promises mean anything. We take a scenic detour through Obamagate—aka "Fan Fiction for the Fox News Crowd"—and pause to reflect on the beautiful separation of church and state (RIP).

Back in the good ol’ U.S. of A., the National Guard is popping up in places that should probably be left to, you know, civilians, while lawmakers are dodging threats like it’s part of their job description (because apparently, it is now). ICE is still doing ICE things—terrorizing communities with the subtlety of a sledgehammer—and political “debate” sounds...

Missouri’s out here rallying for democracy with the No Kings crowds while juggling youth violence, a loneliness epidemic, and more guns per capita than good decisions. The state takes in more federal money than it gives—making it a welfare queen in camo. Local crime rates rival big cities, yet politicians keep blaming "urban decay" from the safety of their subsidized offices. Meanwhile, marginalized groups are getting louder, the political right is eating itself alive, and even the skeptics are dusting off their protest signs. Turns out, hope (and sarcasm) might just be Missouri’s next big export.
