I never understand folks who complain abt how OTHER ppl protest. If you don’t like protesters to cuss or where frog suits, why don’t YOU go protest wearing a tuxedo and reciting the Magna Carta? No one’s stopping you, least of all the frogman, who will likely leap for joy for your involvement

The Nintendo Wii has over a half-dozen single license racing games in it's library. At one point I thought it would be fun to compare them in a Battle of the Brands video. After playing the 1st one though I realized no one would ever care. Anyway, here's Jeep Thrills. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWjx...

If you think a game about going after the KKK would be controversial due to the current political climate, it's a good sign you should make a game about going after the KKK.

I don’t know if you guys have realized this or not, but there’s a whole lot of super ridiculous weirdos running our local, state and federal governments right now.

We featured Steve James on our podcast shirt, because we absolutely loved Steve James movies. Glad to see him front and center on a new Blu-ray.

What would you stop being able to afford if your premiums went up by $1,000?

Your insurance? Groceries? Rent?

This will be the reality for countless families soon. THIS is what Democrats are trying to stop.

If I was a judge presiding over a case about deploying troops to protect ICE, I think my first question to the government would be "Why do people wearing 300 pounds of tactical gear who are armed with machine guns need protection?"
