SbLX

from Hot Takes · host Alex Hysel, Nicholas Padesky

We’re back in top form, in high spirits from the warmer temps following an extended freeze in both NY and WI. We discuss the New York Times reporting on the federal playbook following ICE/BORTAC shootings, and what it means that DHS Sec. Kristi Noam has no qualms about lying to the American people and slandering the names of innocent victims. Then we get to our main story, Super Bowl LX, covering the lackluster commercials, the alt [right] halftime show, the official halftime show (Bad Bunny killed it), and the mostly boring, but satisfying, game.
