Ep. 308 - Medieval Solutions for Modern Problems
from IP... Frequently: A Not-Very Intellectual Business Podcast Hosted by IP... Frequently brought to you by Dominion Harbor
David and Brad make an impassioned case for reviving public shaming via pillory—and this week's news provides all the evidence they need. First up: a Scottish woman who orchestrated an elaborate nine-month fake pregnancy with a doll named Bonnie Lee Joyce, complete with gender reveal parties, prosthetic baby bumps, and simulated diaper changes that fooled friends, family, and even the supposed father. Brad and David agree she deserves the stocks, but she's got company. Congressional Democrats blocking government funding while military members, FBI agents, and hungry kids go unpaid (but senators keep cashing checks)? Straight to the pillory. Prince Andrew, who spent decades bilking British taxpayers to fund his 40-prostitutes-in-four-days Thailand adventure before finally being stripped of his royal title? Front row in the town square. The only ones exempt from public shaming? The diseased research monkeys loose in Mississippi—at least they're honest about being extremely angry and dangerous.
