178 The LEFT Show – HerRection
05 days 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.

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
2 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!

#7 Tell Me A Story Jason Williams – Inside Baseball
3 weeks ago
Going back nearly a decade, Jason Williams and I have fueled our mutual nerd rage every time we end up talking to one another – even though this is Tell Me A Story, everyone in politics has stories. Lots of stories. From The Sunlight Foundation to stories of friends who’ve passed on, this is a chat about the drive to make the world a better place … through aggressive action and messaging.

[FIXED] 175 The LEFT Show – Fred Phelps is Dead [FIXED]
3 weeks ago
[The problem with the audio file has been fixed. Please, to enjoy!]
One hundred and seventy five episodes, ladies and gentlemen! The only thing that would have made this better is if Melissa weren’t so concerned with being employed and eating and all that!
So, the 175th episode of The LEFT Show found us in a celebratory mood, and then, like Christmas, Fred Phelps died, and it was time to don our party hats! I really have no hesitation what so ever about crowing when a truly evil person dies – good riddance to bad trash! There is literally nothing I could do, in celebrating the death of Fred Phelps, that could possibly sink to his level.
This is the show, folks! All this, and another round of The LEFT Show presents, The LEFT Show’s GOP Jesus Wanker of the Week!
175 The LEFT Show – Dead, dead, dead!
