Another Fine Mess
by anotherfinemess
Another Fine Mess is not just another politics and news podcast. Hosts Roger Gray and Mike Vance were afternoon drive talk radio partners back at the start of the century. They amused Houston audiences with not only political talk but entertainment, books, sports and humor. Lots of humor. That's because, while Roger has a half century of traveling the world doing news, Mike was a professional stand-up comedian and fronted an original country music band for two decades. They went their separate ways for a bit, but could not abide the idea of today's mess of a world going unchallenged. They're doing just that each week in Another Fine Mess! You can expect to hear a little of that entertainment, sports and history talk, too. Learn something, and do it with a smile. Mike Vance is the author of fifteen non-fiction books on Texas history, sports, and comedy, and four historical fiction novels. Mike also writes and hosts the irrever

Another Fine Mess 25 - ELECTION SPECIAL Scruples Half Off

Another Fine Mess 24 - Diesel, Lies & More Fresh Hell
The boys dive deeply into misplaced blame over everything from the price of diesel to rising inflation to why some Obamacare users got a check in the mail.

-
Another Fine Mess 23 - Corruption, Incompetence & It's Only Wednesday
The guys look at the latest misuse and reappropriation of our taxpayer dollars, at Dr. Oz hanging with rapists, the difference between Iowa and Atlanta, and how the most blatant misdeeds won't prompt republican officials to grow a pair. Plus Mike reminds liberals to keep their Eyes on the Prize.
-
AFM 22 - No Health Insurance, No Science, No Ethics, No Problem
The administration is determined to kick another million people off their Affordable Care Act health insurance, and at the same time they want to continue axing the research that might cure cancer or heart disease or infectious viruses. Hey, don't sweat it, high prices for gas, groceries, and…

Another Fine Mess 21 - Supremes Find a Spine, but TX repubs don't
The boys talk about the mail-in ballot slapdown (for now), the Kennedy Center, the War, and that dipshit racist running for office in Texas. Which one, you ask? Fair enough. Plus lots more of the week's political news.
-
Another Fine Mess 20 - Our New AI Overlords & Fascists in Europe! Yikes!
There was an AI breach that should scare us all shitless. And if that's not enough, the n*zi wannabes won a big election in Germany. What could possibly go wrong?!? Rog and Mike have the lowdown on these stories and much more on this week's AFM.
-
Another Fine Mess 19 - Clueless & Petty, Purging Voters & Stuck in the Tub
Yes, the administration outdoes itself from week to week with new stupidity. The pointless war has now increased bond prices & government debt worldwide, meaning prices of everything will be going up, up up. But don't fret, they still have time to fire all the generals, disenfranchise millions of...
-
Another Fine Mess 18 - Argentine Beef, Disappearing Forests & Everything Canadian
More of these pointless cuts are coming home to roost, and the boys hope against hope that the administration has reached a tipping point in pissing off their own supporters. Plus Roger and Mike stand up for the men and women of the US military. Lord knows the Pentagon isn't.
-
Another Fine Mess 17 - Korea, Money Laundering, Forest Fires & a Bag of Hair
The hypocrisy and corruption from the administration continues to reach new heights, or low, even though we always think that's impossible. This week Rog and Mike point out that the actual party praising communists and embracing Muslims are the republicans, even while that sophomoric name calling...
-
Another Fine Mess 16 - No Vaccines, No Science, No Ethics, No Decency, No Brains
So much in the news to piss the boys off this week. The criminal administration wants to end many time-proven vaccines, eliminate all Muslims and Hindus, deny basic historical fact, and offer their version of thoughts and prayers to help Americans struggling financially. Of course, when the prez...
-
Another Fine Mess 15 - Primaries, EVs & a Head Start on Corruption
The guys sprinkle the latest egregious administration corruption throughout this week's look at the news. Big Bird is under attack again, US auto makers are on the ropes, and a little look at a low point for the great Jackie Robinson. And did we mention corruption?
-
Another Fine Mess 14 - Fauci, Distractions, Obsessions & War
Need distractions to make people forget that we're all in high-priced hot water? Haul an 86-year old retired guy before Congress. The lads also discuss more severe limitations on student loans, health care, free speech and especially your pocketbook. And of course, we're still stuck in an idiotic...
-
Another Fine Mess 13 - Middle East, Corrupt Republicans, Explosive Diarrhea, & LBJ
The boys get a tad tangential this week and throw in talk about raccoons, Lyndon Johnson, and their radio days. Mostly though, it's the usual no-holds-barred informed analysis of the weeks politics and news. Done with some snark and a smile.
-
Another Fine Mess 12 - The War, ICE, Lindsey, and Selling Off Our Parks
It's always tough to distill a week's worth of administration corruption into 40 minutes, but the guys talk War with Iran, Defense budget, Lindsey Graham, ICE murders, the cowardly speaker, the housing bill, more election lies, and the gutting our the US Parks Service lands so republican cronies...
-
Another Fine Mess 11 - Red Cards, Green Cards & All Around Bad Hands
The boys tackle lots of news, spending plenty of time on the U.S. World Cup disruption, but not neglecting the NATO meeting, the restarted war, Graham Platner, another ICE murder, and the gutting of America's greatest treasures - our National Parks. If that's not enough, Mike shares the history…
more -
Another Fine Mess 10 - The Court, The Fourth, & Needing Democrats Who Focus
The gents excoriate the much-less-than-Supreme Court, but Mike may piss off some fellow libs in the process. It's more amateur hour at the war & peace table, Roger takes a New York candidate to task, and Mike finds one post-presidential job he really likes.
-
Another Fine Mess 9 - Reflecting Pool, Pure D Racists & the Hapsburg Jaw
Roger & Mike covered a lot this week. Republicans trying to ban IVF, Republicans telling their own Muslim members to leave the country, a grocery store racist who made $125k, some 16th century Austrian history, and blue paint bubbling to the green surface. Despite the algae, this episode of AFM…
more -
Another Fine Mess 8 - Pieces of Peace, World Cup Friendship & Polly Wants a Cracker
Do we have a peace deal even if the terms are not disclosed and each side is giving a different story? Roger and Mike will wait until the tree falls in forest to find out. Meanwhile, there is some heartwarming news related to the World Cup and the same old BS from the White House over election...
-
Another Fine Mess 7 - Border Walls, Wartime Brawls, Screwworm Calls & Little Bumps
First off, don't expect rhyming titles moving forward, but the guys talk Big Bend wall, Middle East blunders, total lack of foresight and much more. The history fact has to do with reading the little bumps on your noggin.
-
Another Fine Mess 6 - No Science, No Integrity, Fewer Murders & Frogs
The guys give you the lowdown on the shutdown of science by the administration, and Mike says both sides can pat themselves on the back for the lowest murder rate in 100 years. Meanwhile, there is no morality in site on Pennsylvania Avenue. But there were plenty of mobility-impaired bullfrogs in...
-
Another Fine Mess 5 - Lower Courts, Bailing Musicians, a $250 Bill & the Shortest War
The gents warily compliment some lower court rulings, dive into the mosh pit at the maga co-opting of our Declaration's 250th birthday, and explore the whack-a-mole that is this administration's corruption. Mike's weird history fact looks at the world's shortest war ever.
-
Another Fine Mess 4 - Paxton??, HUD, Corruption & Bowling
The guys are not exactly dumbfounded at the dumbness coming from the dumbass in the White House. They love the movie Hud, but not the hijinks at HUD. And Mike's weird history fact takes you bowling with Tricky Dick.
-
Another Fine Mess 3 - A Caving Senator, Corruption & the Muppets
Roger wanted to talk about how a once mainstream Republican Senator who would work across the aisle has hit rock maga bottom. There's also The War, the usual White House corruption, and Mike exposes (hehe) the truth behind a Muppets legend.
-
Another Fine Mess Ep 2 - Voting Rights, The War & Dentures
Mike is supremely cheesed over the Supreme Court ruling for racism and against the Voting Rights Act, and he recounts the history of voting discrimination. Roger has more talk about The War plus a ballroom update you need to know. And there's a Weird History Fact about dentures. In other words,...
