Eric Appreciated Our Collective Integrity | April 20th, 2022

from Is It Safe? · host Michael Govier, Luke H., Steve Guile

Welcome to the 60th edition of the Is It Safe Talk Show! Mike gets into his displeasure with Yankees broadcaster Michael Kay who had Rudy Guiliani officiate his wedding. The midwest has just as many talented people as New York and others east coasters from the media industrial complex. Luke's furnace gets pissed which leads Luke to take a moment to clarify some of the miscommunication from last episode's conversation about race debates being a tool of the media and government. Jon Stewart's The Problem did a much better job than us recently by talking about institutional racism in the United States and we play a few clips to get his take on this continuing crisis in America. Luke wants you to know that the answers lie in massive economic boosts to the most people who have been historically oppressed. John saw Jawbreaker last night and shares his experience. Don't confuse Jawbreaker with Glassjaw which exactly what Mike did. A tasteless Grand Rapids joke from the Jawbreaker front man leads to our discussion about the recent shooting of Patrick Lyoya by a Grand Rapids police officer. There isn't much love for police on this show and we explain why that is. It's not just a blanket statement we assure you. Cops are instruments of force by the state and the state power arm is inherently violent. Just listen, we explain it clearly. Michigan recently sent out $400 checks per care for insurance rebates. The problem is the money came from a catastrophic accident fund that helped people from permanently injured car accidents survive. We get to your emails as always! Brian has a follow-up on the RaDonda Vaught conviction plus he's pissed about military vets being taken advantage of by sports leagues like the NFL. Mike had some technical issues at the end of the show. However, we still close the show with a song. This week it's Sunflower by Post Malone and Swae Lee.
