95 - AWOL
Um…hey guys. We went out for smokes and the World stayed weird. So we came back to ramble about things we know little about. If you’d like to hear a heavy spin on a country hit, check out Doug’s band (Stumble Witch) cover Rich Men North of Richmond, here:...
-
94 - Transgression
We’re all looking for answers to the wrong questions. Jim & Doug look at the recent uptick in what appears to be an artificially boosted issue sashaying across the country. Obligatory trigger warning: if you disagree with us, it’s satire. If you agree with us, it’s a coincidence.
-
93 - Chat GPT, was Bubba a Good Boy?
Jim takes his L on the Murdaugh verdict and is swayed by the State’s closing rebuttal. OJ weighs in with his expert opinion. The prosecution pulls all of their muscles, patting themselves on the back. Maybe AI can do a better job? We ask Chat GPT a series of questions to see if it’s ready to rule...
-
92 - It’s that time of the month
Out of respect for Black History Month, we here at Ignore the Rant decided to take a knee and let black voices be heard. So now that’s over, we’re here to contribute to our inevitable future cancelling. We cover most of the stories we missed and dip into some recent headlines. Mainly, the…

91 - Tantrum from the Treetops
The next riot season may have had a false start in Atlanta this past weekend. What happened, who’s involved and what is it over? We cover this in the only way we know how, by name calling on a fifth grade level. But with sound clips of more professional people bringing the info. Hockey is not gay...
-
90 - Broken Records

81 - Hot Takes Supreme
The supply of hot takes exceeds demand but that won’t stop us from jumping in. An untimely death connected with 1/6 gets glossed over while Ghislaine gets 20yrs for trafficking children to….no one?

80 - 1 Star Review
With the US nosediving into a recession, people are looking to “economists” for answers. Most are full of crap, including us. So we look to an unlikely source, then go off topic for an hour. We also discuss “What is a Woman?”, playing god with science, sentient robots, HR demons. An unlikely…
more -
79 - Faux Chaos
This one goes off the rails before it ever started and never finds its way to anything remotely close to a listenable show. There’s chimpanzee sounds, cringe inducing wordplay, old guys arguing and a washed up band no one cares about anymore. It’s safe to say we’re mailing it in. Follow the show…
more -
78 - Myth Informed
We get all high and mighty by blaming the world’s problems on the internet, while podcasting on the internet. We’re midwits, at best. In this Arrona-less episode, Jim & Doug shoot the shit about this past week. We review the new Dinesh D’Souza doc, 2000 Mules & talk a little about 3rd party...

-
74 - Very Modest Individual
Many people are asking, so we'll give it to you now, it is 100% true. Jim & Doug got an episode done, on time. Arrona, still recovering from his dolphin tour, sits this one out. Anyway, there's a lot of chatter about it, quite exciting, and people everywhere seem to be asking for the facts.…
