It’s been a weird week on Wall Street as financial road warriors have breached the gates and began plundering all that sweet, sweet capital from the coffers of more deserving Robber Barons. This made the greedy lords of the Hedgefund Kingdom quite angry sending them crying to their Uncle Sam to stop the madness. Some think it might be too late; Democracy has come to Wall Street. Or could a new regulation blitz be the final shoe drop that re-affirms everyone’s gut instinct that average americans are not allowed to participate in the wealth game.    Finance shenanigans are not the only thing that got weird this week. A Vice presidential step-daughter got her ticket to the ball, Charles Mason has found a bizarre new afterlife, and the military has been caught trying to weaponize spacetime. We’ll tell you all about it in our WHAT IN THE WEIRD segment at the end of the show.   Far Off Topic is hosted by Fiasco Jones, Mr. Glasses, and TWee.
