Have Your Cake and Eat it Too | 446

from Boomer Bunker

John opens 446 by putting the nastiest family dinner-table hypothetical you've ever heard to a vote — and somehow that's not even the most unhinged thing this episode covers. From there it's a hard turn into an American Airlines passenger getting duct-taped and zip-tied to his seat after a racial-slur meltdown at 30,000 feet, then straight into the Lindsay Clancy mistrial, where John makes the case that a guy who lost his job over one bad night on a plane is getting torched harder in public opinion than a mother who strangled her three kids — and the Duchess isn't fully buying the comparison.Also on deck: a second Illinois case eerily tied to the Clancy trial, a Wall Street guy named "Mr. Global" who called a suspicious oil futures trade a full day before the US bombed three Iranian tankers, and John's official position on Congress trying to force AM radios into every new car (spoiler: he does not care). Plus a Western Michigan-Michigan officiating disaster, a Barbara Eden health update, and the chat weighing in on all of it in real time.Topics Covered:The Cake Debate — John recaps a filthy either-or hypothetical from a family gathering and puts it to the Duchess and the live chat to settle once and for all.Barbara Eden Update — Clears up that her canceled film festival appearance was a bad medication reaction, not a health scare, straight from her own Instagram.Michigan vs. Western Michigan Controversy — The hosts break down the Hail Mary, the phantom second put back on the clock, and the Big Ten's explanation for why the TV clock and the game clock didn't match.Airline Passenger Duct-Taped Mid-Flight — An American Airlines flight to Newark gets diverted to Baltimore after a first-class passenger hurls a racial slur at a flight attendant and attacks another passenger, and gets zip-tied and duct-taped by fellow travelers.Lindsay Clancy Mistrial & the Sympathy Gap — John argues the plane passenger is getting more public hate than a woman who strangled her three children; the Duchess pushes back that the two cases aren't a fair comparison.A Second "Copycat" Case — An Illinois mother allegedly killed her toddler son hours after obsessively following the Clancy trial, and the hosts weigh whether more cases like it are coming.Suspicious Oil Trade Before the Iran Tanker Strikes — A trader known as "Mr. Global" flagged a large oil futures buy right before the US bombed three Iranian tankers, and John wants to know who knew what and when.AM Radio Mandate — Congress is voting on forcing every new car to keep an AM antenna; John explains why he genuinely does not care either way.Website: https://boomerbunker.com Discord: https://boomerbunker.com/discord Support the Show: https://boomerbunker.com/support Get involved!

Explicit Voices from my Bunker 2020 Pat Coakley-Writer/Photographer/Mixed Media "Voices from my Bunker 2020" is a series of interviews with all ages of people of what 2020 has been like for them. This is a rebranded podcast that used to be named, "PODSNACKS/Art of the Diet" but the first six months of 2020 has shifted my preoccupations from five years of weight maintenance to minute by minute sanity maintenance. Attention must be paid to the issues before me. I'm 75, live in Massachusetts, and my doorbell hasn't rung in 3 months and probably won't until there's a vaccine. My hair has its own zip code and I look like the Unibomber when captured in his Montana cabin. None of which interferes with my ability, thankfully, to ask questions over a Skype connection. I'll be recording interviews until the election on Nov 3, 2020. If he is reelected, look only for my obit.
