486: Insurrection
Part One: Trump Supporters Storm the US Capitol
Jack, Mike and Nate here for a more serious episode of Hardly Focused. The big topic in this episode is the failed coup attempt at the United States Capitol, on January 6. The group weighs in on the subject, including President Trump’s potential (and second) impeachment, invoking the 25th amendment, and more.
Part Two: The Craziest Headlines from the Failed Coup Attempt
Jack, Mike and Nate further discuss the incident at the US Capitol. The group talk about Trump pardoning himself, or hoping Vice President Pence pardons him. Jack notes this would entail Trump having to resign his position, then rely on Pence to follow through on pardoning; something Pence likely won’t do at this point.
Segueing into a special “headline blitz” edition of this podcast’s How Fucking Dumb Are You segment, Jack rolls off the most bizarre headlines to emerge from the coup attempt. Boy, were there some weird ones.
Part Three: We Watch a Danish Cartoon Called “John Dillermand”
In completely different news, a bizarre kids’ show from Denmark emerges. Jack, Mike and Nate watch part of the first episode of “John Dillermand,” featuring – as CNN put it – “a man with a huge and uncontrollable penis.” To best enjoy this segment, watch it on our YouTube channel!
