With Trump being indicted, a lot of folks saw it coming. For me, this ordeal is not over for me until a sentence has been reached that includes prison time. I'm not going to be satisfied until the 45th president is locked up in Sing Sing. However, being able to predict his indictment was not difficult because of some hood wisdom my father passed on…

Today we delve into the reason why, when Trump had nothing to show for it, 74 million people still voted for him. It's really not difficult to surmise. But I wanted to go in-depth about how a person who has failed as miserably as Trump did at being ANYTHING (his failure doesn't only apply to the presidency, it extends to life in general) could garn…

This is an update to a podcast I did that opened season 2. In it I described what going through a mid-life crisis is like and how to tell you're in one. In that show I spoke of a friend who was going through that part of his life. Well, it turns out, that story has a surprise twist ending. To leave feedback: feedback@thegreatdivide.us voicemail: 54…

A week ago today we celebrated one of the most underrated holidays of the year. In fact, it's so undervalued a lot of you may have missed it, as we observed it on a Thursday. (Don't most holidays occur on Mondays?) So I wanted to take the time and give Veterans day more time than we tend to give it on it's actual holiday. And to any service members…

When I did this show two weeks back, the end of it did not feel right to me. So I recorded an addendum to describe what I felt was missing from the original content. I started the show with the intention of doing the show on one topic not realizing I was talking about a similar but altogether different topic. To leave feedback: feedback@thegreatdiv…

Four years ago not too long after the election I put out a podcast that encompassed what I then thought was the perfect analogy for the political climate the new administration brought us in. It was right out of a 1970s horror movie. Tonight I revisit that show as well as add on my thoughts about where in this movie we currently are. It's super fit…

Specific reasons why I do not trust the US government, no matter who's running it, turned into why I don't really trust the world. I will need to follow up this show with a second part in order to bring my thoughts on this full circle.

I believe that in season one of this how I told the story of why I left the Republican Party, and while I am not a Democrat, I lean Democratic now. In this episode, I am going to run you through why my stance on capital punishment changed. I used to be aggressively anti-capitol punishment and now I am completely pro-death penalty. I explain why and…

If it walks like a stank, talks like a stank, acts like a stank... It's a stank! In fact, our president doesn't really know anything about women other than stanks, so to find out that one of his stanks is also a grifter just like he is, it's not news. But I explored it anyways.

Today's show was only supposed to be 5 to 10 minutes. Turned out, I had a lot more to say. Over this past weekend Blotus was diagnosed with COVID and spent time at Walter Reed Hospital as a result. Before we find out whether he's going to live or die I just wished to make my feelings known about the whole thing and even for the people who know me, …

So I am having a day full of regret for something that happened when I was 10 years old. Something happened earlier today that not only reminded me of something that happened 30 years ago, but it may have put it in a dire context that may have been missing when I was a kid. Today I tell that story and I welcome any feedback you may have about it, e…

Today's show is the longest I believe I ever done, and much to YOUR surprise (and mine) it is a happy show for the most part. I realize we always have a lot of important stuff to cover on this show but since it's my birthday I've decided to tell you one of my favorite stories from my childhood. You're welcome! :) To leave feedback: feedback@thegrea…

This is a repost of the Sacks & Bags episode from season two. Since there are so many new listeners, there's no time like the present to revisit a classic show. Things have not changed since then. If anything, they've gotten worse. To leave feedback: feedback@thegreatdivide.us voicemail: 541-357-7585 (feedback may or may not be read/played on the p…

Just a little something that was on my heart to say. I'm am still feeling ambiguous about this topic. It has to do with my father and what I call him and what other people call theirs. I also talk about my instagram habits in detail. There is only one useful purpose I have for instagram. LOL. To leave feedback: feedback@thegreatdivide.us voicemail:…

This was recorded four days ago. That is important because now I'm beginning to hear other people make the same assertion I made. I heard a story, and right away my spidey senses started tingling and my red flag went up. From the moment I first heard the story I found it suspect for one specific reason. So I recorded it... Now other people are echo…

Coronavirus! Coronavirus! It's getting real. Shit is getting real!!! LOL. Don't worry, that's not what the topic of this show is today. That's just the new theme song for season 3. Today we delve into the world of politics (which Thank God because) don't nobody feel like listening to me talk about race today. Race is only kinda related but this ele…

Something happened during the campaign of one of the Democratic candidates for president that I gotta talk about. I got to see it live as it happened but there was a black journalist who was there that witnessed it and she describes this particular incident perfectly. I am not a fan of politics but I do keep updated because one of my minors was pol…

I did something very unlike myself this year. I went almost all of black history month without talking about black history (mostly because I talk about black shit all year long. This episode is to end BHM with a bang. It is an aural presentation of my Anthropology 416: Scientific Racism final project from 2018. I did get a perfect score on it (4.0)…

Parents, you need to (especially in this internet age) talk to your children about the issues that are hard to talk about. I know it's difficult but the things you don't teach your children, they will pick up second hand. The things you don't tell them, someone else will. In this Mini I tell about my experience doing this very thing, maybe a week a…

Episode 2 of The Great Divide: Revisited has us revisiting the Two Chimps and an Elephant episode. I felt like I needed to explain the animals vs slaves paradox a little bit further. It was off topic for the point I was driving home about how I feel about animals but not long enough to do a whole show about. So hit me up and let me know what you th…

This quick first episode is meant to be an orientation to what Revisited is. Whenever there is a deep topic on the regular TGD show and I think about it and have more to add later, that is the purpose of TGD: Revisited. We are dropping the first five episodes of revisited on the regular TGD feed but after the fifth, the rest will continue to go liv…

Welcome to the first TGD (mini). TGD (mini) is everything that the regular TGD is but in bite sized pieces. So you will still get the same topics, punch, humor and rawness that comes with TGD but the mini episodes will be shorter. They are intended to keep you sane in between the regular shows. The first five minis are being posted to the regular f…

Two chimps and an elephant walk into a bar and the bartender says... Shout out to all of the new TGD page followers.

This is a quick mini episode that we are testing on the feed, as TGD-Minis will get their own show under the new model. Presently there is a lot of migrating feeds and other administration going on in the background in preparation for the new model. This is just one of those tests to make sure everything is working accurately. The clip you are list…

As I was taking an afternoon walk I began to reflect on my time in the Pacific Northwest and realized in two months I will be coming up on 10 years living in Oregon. This is one of the longer shows I have recorded and is basically a series of short episodes I have had in this area since I’ve been here. Towards the end I have an unexpected guest tha…

As much as I love the internet, I also hate it. I am fascinated by it, and afraid of it at the same time. That is part of the reason why I chose to study it post-secondary. However, the way my studies have gone, they connect mostly at the social angle of technology. I am pursuing a law degree with an emphasis on three areas: criminal, civil rights …

It is Memorial Day weekend and reflection on our heroes, lost and fallen, made me realize that while we take today to honor those who were lost and fallen in battle that many of our soldiers come home with bits and pieces of them dead. They might not’ve lost their lives but many come back having lost something, and in a lot of cases, something sign…
