#139 Populace Survey

from Useless Assumptions

Useless Assumptions is back and this one is loaded. We start in the NFL where Aaron Rodgers went on Pat McAfee and let loose on Anthony Fauci, calling him an absolute coward for dodging questions at last week's Senate hearing. Then Clay Travis doubles down on his fight with the WNBA, putting ten million dollars on the table for the Las Vegas Aces to play a boys high school team and threatening to launch an all trans franchise called the Nashville Balls. We also break down the Husker outlook for the season and Dylan Raiola taking a shot at Nebraska on his way out the door to Oregon.Locally, there's a city budget meeting open to the public Monday August 10th at 4pm, so mark your calendar.In other news we cover a Hawaii congressional candidate getting knocked out cold on a Maui beach before getting arrested on felony threat charges, Javier Milei's new fiscal shackle proposal in Argentina, the mess over whether Zohran Mamdani's city grocery stores will require ID, Abdul El-Sayed becoming the first Muslim American to win a Michigan Senate primary, and a growing push to lower the voting age to 16.Plus the guys bring in a Mike Rowe interview about a populace survey tracking what people really believe versus what they say out loud in public.We close it out with a game and as always we want to hear your own Useless Assumptions in the comments. Like and subscribe and we'll see you next week.
