DC’s Mike James and Mollie Ames discuss: All terrestrial segments were recorded live on August 21st (Day 234 of 2020), and all podcast segments were recorded live on August 24th (Day 237 of 2020) Part 1 of 3 of the Podcast only content – The 10 articles of impeachment filed (from within his own bat-shit crazy party!) against Gov. DeWine by three of Ohio's biggest outer-rim conservative nutcakes are just as hypocritical and insane as you should have expected, and they also further illustrate why Defending Cleveland from the rest of Ohio is clearly the most obvious path to saving us all. MLB Hot Mike! Er... MLB Hot Mic! (The many recent MLB f-bombs, and longtime Reds play-by-play Thom Brennamen lets slip on-air what he really thinks before ultimately serving up one of the most insanely unbelievable justifications for it you could ever imagine) Part 2 of 3 of the Podcast only content – Kayaking the Cuyahoga is something every Clevelander should do at least once. And an open letter to Thom Brennamin that's a must read, so we read it for you. (begins around the 1:25:00 mark) Lachlan MacKinnon’s ‘Best of Edition’ Let Me Tell You A Story: “Our Body, Ourselves” (begins around the 1:48:00 mark) Getting in some hot (Covid-19 safely distanced) beaches in the city before it turns into winter. WTAM sticks to their standard racist script by going full WTAM in the middle of a baseball game. The body-cam video that clearly depicts Toronto Raptors team president Masai Ujiri was not the aggressor and was instead the one who was actually assaulted (and not the other way around like the racist cop who attacked him wanted everyone to believe) has finally become available to the public, but why did it take so long for this very important evidence to be released? The return of your "Cleveland Baseball Team" Playoff Probabilities song and dance! Shane Bieber is going full historic right now, and it's about the only thing in MLB that's must see TV right now. And not just because of his tushy. Part 3 of 3 of the Podcast only content – Make room Beib's, there's a new pitcher for CLE who's also can't miss/must see TV, and Luka Dončić's shot that could be heard all around the water banks of the city. And… Mollie’s Weekly Report: A Cleveland band finally graces the cover of one of the greatest and most respected music magazines of all time. (begins around the 2:49:00 mark) Kansas City Chiefs fans are no longer going to be permitted to dress and paint themselves as Native Americans at games anymore, and listening to the uproar it's causing is all too familiar. Really good sex, really good drugs, and really good pizza... Pretty much the Big 3! (Focaccia red pie add Romano at Gentile's Bakery in Parma!) Mollie’s Weekly Reports, terrestrial edition! – Mollie went to see Dave Chappelle, and it's definitely okay to be insanely jelly of her right now.
