Wrong About Everything

Javier, Amy and Brian are joined by DFL Lawyer Lobbyist, Matthew Bergeron. It's the year in review and it's been an interesting one to say the least. Plenty of disappointment and discipline to go around. You've been great 2019, but we're happy to see you go. Happy New Year from the Wrong About Everything family!

Brian and Carin are joined this week by comedian, Corey Adam, and writer, Tricia Cornell. Unpacking this week of impeachment hearings. Mayor Pete's coming up in the polls, what does this mean for the democratic race? Fartgate continues to plague the media, and us. Minnesota Legislature retirements, and the passing of Representative Diane Loeffler.

The gang is all together on this one, as they're trying something new out, stay tuned for more info on that. More impeachment talk, this whole 'will they, won't they' story line is getting pretty tiresome. Talking about the Katie Hill scandal as no one else really seems to be. Representative Ilhan Omar is in trouble again, this time for what she wouldn't comment on, the acknowledgement of the Armenian Genocide. And our continuing segment, TrashWars.

Brian, Carin and Amy are joined by John Stiles this week, as Javier has 'trash' things to deal with. Amy's theory on coordinated attacks on former majority leaders. Lots of impeachment talk. Carin is calling Fake News on Hillary's, 'Tulsi Gabbard is a Russian Agent' comment, as she was in fact, misquoted. Mittens Romney inspires everybody to out their own secret Twitter accounts. And St. Paul continues to be fine! No, really, just fine.

Brian, Amy, and Javier are joined by Lady Lawyer, Emma Greenman. Although she has no interest in representing any of them. Going over the details of Amy getting hit by a car, spoiler alert, she's just fine and getting more press then ever. So how do we feel about the US engaging in a 'passive genocide' in the Middle East? Trump's tweets keep upping the ante in terms of crazy and entertainment, and how the vernacular is perforating its way into our culture. A quick stop on the Klobo-shop after the last debate, can we all agree that Biden is O-V-E-R? And St. Paul is FINE, no thanks to Amy.

The gang is all here to dive head first and dissect the Trump rally in Minneapolis, from both perspectives. The tensions were definitely high before, during and after the rally. How the fringe on both sides is becoming increasingly dangerous to us all. The Yang pill is the medicine the right refuses to take. Taking accountability for racism in the Republican party is crucial if they are going to move forward. And the hypocrisy on both sides, enough already.

The gang is all together and there is much to discuss with the impending investigations that could lead to impeachment. Big concepts get thrown around, and both sides make their case. The wild claims against Elizabeth Warren, that are only helping her cause. Poor Bernie Sanders had a little shpilkes, but should be back just in time for New Hampshire. And in Minnesota news, primaries, primaries, primaries!

Diving head first into the impeachment process. What is going to happen, anything, everything? Unpacking the actual motivations of the Bidens, and that they are a symptom of a bigger issue in this country. Al Franken is back in the spotlight and Carin shares a very personal story about male entitlement. Trash Wars with Javier, ya'll need to quit your dumping. And everyone needs to tone it down before things get ugly, or worse, violent.

The gang's all together on this one, and it's a good thing so we can untangle this whole Biden, Trump, Ukrainian thing. The Primaries continue to be uninspiring. Amy Woke is here to tell the story of how Minnesota's first lady, Gwen Walz, found herself in an embarrassing situation on public television, the bigger problem, the tape was asked to go away. And Twin Cities Sugar, Brian McDaniel, educates us on the new insulin legislation.

Javier, Carin and Amy are joined by Amy's son, but not really, Will Dammann, former intern to the program. The Democratic debates were pretty hard for everyone to digest, is there any candidate that can pass the 'electability' test? It certainly isn't Joe Biden at this point. Saying our goodbyes to another Trump cabinet member, John Bolton, but good riddance on this one. The latest enemy to the populace, Big Vape. In Minnesota news, legislators are in trouble, for creating jobs? Well there's more to it than that.

Finally back in a decent studio, Amy, Javier and Carin are joined by 'baby lawyer,' Leah Koch, she wishes she was that kind of Koch. In local news, we have a First Dog and Ilhan Omar's personal life continues unfold in the public eye. Why distinctions are very important when looking at this situation of campaign finance and infidelity. The Terrorist Watch list, how to get on and off of it, nobody really knows. And of course, spanks and thanks.

Brian and Carin are joined this week by 'just Max Rymer' and Lady Lawyer Emma Greenman. It's a tough one but unpacking the mass shootings from over the weekend. What is driving this and where is it going? What are the solutions, where can we agree, if at all? Feral hogs, 30-50 of them, because everyone else is talking about them. There's an election in Minnesota coming up, again! Everybody hates Tony Cornish. And some spanks and thanks to wash it all down.

Carin, Amy, and Brian are joined by *self proclaimed* Lady Lawyer, Emma Greeman. Hands Free is here, thanks Brian. No, actually thank you. The never ending, unfolding drama of the Minnesota DHS.

Amy, Javier and Carin are joined by honorary host at this point, Jason Flohrs. Continuing to unpack the DHS mess, the reasons behind the resignations. Ilhan has some new, unhinged competition. The recent article on Al Franken, questioning his departure. How do we feel about Mueller's testimony? Not great. Also, Jason is basically a liberal at this point.

Three's a crowd on this very special episode, a sudden cancellation leaves just Brian and Carin to celebrate Javier's 50th birthday! Aside from the horrifically annoying national news, there's a treasure trove of birthday voicemails from some of our favorite local officials to get to. Remembering and rescinding all the recent resignations, and speculating the hell out of what is going on. The North Carolina rally, the strategy behind it and what it means for our congresswoman. The reality that we live in, and what we can do about it.

Brian and Carin are joined by Americans for Prosperity's, Jason Flohrs, and filling in for Javier, THE John Stiles. The debates were hard to watch, did anyone make themselves look good, or was it just the opposite? The future of '2020.' Justice John Roberts giving us plenty to talk about with his decisions. Ilhan Omar continues to be scrutinized, for everything. And the easiest way not be apart of Pride if you don't agree, just don't go.

Javier and Carin, who is finally back, are joined by the ever returning Jason Flohrs and former Minnesota House Majority Leader, Matt Dean. Well, the concentration summer camps are open and filling up quickly. Immigration Reform Jason also makes an appearance. Javier gives us a history lesson and warns of us of the coming deportations. 
And, we're going to war with Iran, wait, nevermind. It's Governor Flanagan, for a day. Also, Javier is still keeping busy and it's Matt Dean vs the squirrels.

Brian and Javier are joined by DFL Lady Lawyer, Emma Greenman and Americans for Prosperity's, Jason Flohrs. Brian tells his favorite Javier story. So what exactly did Trump say? Analyzing the George Stephanopoulos interview like its the Zapruder film. Quarantining Trump Derangement Syndrome, but who is actually afflicted? Also, Ilhan Omar's taxes, and relationships, have been called into question, again. One thing we can all agree on, campaign finance is confusing. And Javier is reacting to retirement in, different ways.

Brian, Amy, and Javier Ofjohnstiles are joined by lady lawyer, Emma Greenman. The census is happening, but it's a lot more complicated than you think. Joe Biden isn't into the Hyde Amendment, anymore. A cool, calm collected discussion on abortion follows. A quick stop at the klobo-shop. Campaign finance can be tricky.

The gang's back together again for the first time in the studio in, awhile. Session and Game of Thrones is over, both endings were disappointing, so now what?

Brian, Amy, and a returning Carin are joined by Twin Cities writer and editor?, Tricia Cornell. The Mueller Report: well that was anticlimactic. Why the timing is terrible with 2020 on the horizon. The ridiculous theories surrounding the cause of the Notre Dame fire and the politicization of the conversation.

More arguing about the Mueller report and how it will likely mean a 2020 victory for Trump, regardless if anyone likes it or not. We need to talk about Joe Biden and the problem with power. The greater need for a conversation about respect. Can we stop making fun of Mike Pence, no? Ok. After the break, it’s on to arguing about Governor Walz’s gas tax and the Dayton school of negotiating. And again, no, Javier is not moving to New Jersey, right?

The shutdown continues. Chuck and Nancy look like they took the log flume. Trump doubles down and is all in, at the same time, with his address. Amy Klobuchar can't get a meeting, so she takes to Twitter to deem it, 'uncool.' The legislature is back in session, it was a quiet week, aside from a fight over the rules.
