Tennessee Brando

Join Hawk and his guest Tennessee Brando as they discuss today's upside down world of politics, where Tennessee Brando sticks out like a blue dot in a sea of red. They swap stories of navigating life in a deep-red state, with Brando humorously recalling how talking politics in a Tennessee bar would have him checking over his shoulder, unlike the carefree political discussions he and Hawk had when he was visiting San Francisco, California. They laugh about how Republicans in Tennessee overreach so hard, you'd think they were stretching to grab the last PBR from the fridge at a frat party. The conversation shifts to "Project 2025," a dystopian plan Republicans have apparently already beta-tested in Tennessee. They discuss the Tennessee Three, political gerrymandering map that resembles a pizza, and Gloria Johnson's uphill battle against Marsha Blackburn in the Senate race. The banter gets even funnier when they dive into Trump’s bizarre rallies, where he “dances” on stage for 40 minutes. The duo can’t help but imagine how differently the media would react if Kamala Harris decided to hold a dance party at one of her rallies! Towards the end, they talk about how Trump’s fanbase might as well sign up for the “Church of the AR-15,” where the preacher waves around a gold-plated rifle and delivers sermons while wearing a bullet crown. Hawk and Brando share a knowing laugh about how some folks are so deep in the Trump cult that they'd vote for a felon over the actual teachings of Jesus. In the words of Hawk, “It’s a mad, mad world out there, and election night is just going to be a speed bump for the chaos to come!” Support and Follow Tennessee Brando in the links below: Support Tennessee Brando: https://www.patreon.com/tnbrando Buy Tennessee Brando Merch: https://www.tennesseebrando.com/ Follow Tennessee Brando on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tn_brando Follow Tennessee Brando on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Tn_Brando Follow Tennessee Brando on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tn_brando Follow Tennessee Brando on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3ZCMPCiJT6oyX0hyu8Xk8l SUPPORT & CONNECT WITH HAWK - Support on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mdg650hawk - Hawk's Merch Store: https://hawkmerchstore.com - Connect on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mdg650hawk7thacct - Connect on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hawkeyewhackamole - Connect on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/mdg650hawk.bsky.social - Connect on Substack: https://mdg650hawk.substack.com - Connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hawkpodcasts - Connect on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mdg650hawk - Connect on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/mdg650hawk ALL HAWK PODCASTS INFO - Additional Content Available Here: https://www.hawkpodcasts.com https://www.youtube.com/@hawkpodcasts - Listen to Hawk Podcasts On Your Favorite Platform: Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3RWeJfy Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/422GDuL YouTube: https://youtube.com/@hawkpodcasts iHeartRadio: https://ihr.fm/47vVBdP Pandora: https://bit.ly/48COaTB
