Issue #119 – Hold 322 – LIVE at FanX
01 day ago
Normally JC does his hosty duty and posts the summary here. This week? Not so much. So, here I am, at the VERY last minute, trying to think of something to say … so … Good Morning! We went to the Salt Lake City ComicCon FanX last week and recorded a live show! JC Carter, JM Bell, and Ultimate Bob, were joied by Bob 616 and Thom surrogate, Forrest Shaw – LIVE! ON STAGE!
178 The LEFT Show – HerRection
01 week ago
Total brain squish … I know Deb Henry was here, but, I’m buggered if I remember what the hell we talked about … and I even have a list. Deb joined FORREST SHAW, JM Bell, JC Carter, and Bob Easton to chat about the news of last week. I do remember apologizing to the entire world.

#8 Tell Me A Story Thom Floyd – “Poo-Chucks”
01 week ago
The Mighty Thom Floyd answered the phone this week, and, much like the proverbial antithesis of beauty, once you scratch away the surface, what lies beneath the outer layer, can sometimes be deep and rich in detail. From co-host on The World’s Greatest Podcast, to fresh new liberal, Thom Floyd, teacher, mentor, lumberjack model, Canadian – show’s that there’s more than meets the eye.

177 The LEFT Show – The Truth, Or Beautiful?
2 weeks ago
Melissa Merlot is BACK with JM Bell, Bob, and Forrest! She’s Back! We cover so, so many important things – but, top point of the show would most likely be JM Bell finally spilling his guts on the Utah Democratic Party Chair race … and if you think he opened up last week … you’re 100% wrong.

176 The LEFT Show – Political Addictions
3 weeks ago
There’s a piece of advice I got a few years ago that goes a little like this: If you act like an asshole, don’t get pissed when people tell stories about you being an asshole. Then again, if you’re an asshole, chances are you just think that you’re behaving normally … whatever – quit your whining!
This episode finds JM Bell, Bob Easton, JC Carter, and the ever present Forrest Shaw welcome Bob Henline back to the Defenestrate Media studio to feed us and drag the conversation screaming back to Utah stuff.
Tune in and revel in the venting spleens! Henline did a thing, and Jeff is NOT happy about it. There’s even some yelling and name calling!
It’s Jeff and Brenda’s anniversary tomorrow, so, you know, go donate or something!
