Malt Liquor Socialists

In this week's episode Mr. Kieffer and Mr. Morgan go over the first evening Josephine County Commissioner Business meeting in OVER. A. YEAR. There were lots of commenter in this meeting, and we mean a-LOT. Despite cutting what we thought would be really redundant comments, our two Socialists still had nearly an hour of video to go over, and a little over a third of it is former Commissioner, "Commander" Chris, being a whiney little chode.

In this episode, Mr. Kieffer and Mr. Morgan partake in libations in celebration of the successful vote to recall "Commander" Chris from the position of Commissioner. Our socialists will go over the County Commissioner Weekly Business meeting, an Administrative Workshop, and another Fireside Chat with Chris Barnett, all from January 7th. Mr. Kieffer offers the most humble of apologies for the audio jumping in a few places in this episode. It seems the consumption of alcohol inhibits his ability to properly operate the recording software, and he might have messed up a couple of times throughout the episode.

In today's episode our Socialists are ditching any local topics to discuss something on the national level. This is in part because the recall election will be over the day after this episode airs, and our Socialists do not want to provide any last minute speculation or do a last minute, "VOTE! VOTE LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!" push."So what kind of national topic might be covered," you ask. Well... Mr. Kieffer may have gotten his hands on a digital copy of a very recent 60 Minutes segment that is banned in the US, and our two Socialists juuuuuuuuuust might be watching that segment.This is one of our shortest full episodes, at just over 30 minutes long, and fair warning... the topic is exceptionally depressing and potentially rage inducing.

Our socialists are back and have a lot to go over from the past two weeks. There is so much to go over, in fact, that Mr. Kieffer and Mr. Morgan have split this week's episode into two parts. The first, longer part, airing today... and the follow up (which will be an interview) airing on Wednesday.In this part of this week's podcast, Mr. Kieffer and Mr. Morgan go through some videos of "Commander" Chris trying to control the narrative, an apparent lackey of his pushing some of Chris' propaganda, and a Commissioner meeting where our socialists get to see Wally Hicks for the first time, and Wally politely ends up telling Chris to shut his damn trap about legal litigation before Chris puts his own foot in it.Also a friendly reminder, if you're a Josephine county resident and registered voter, please make sure you have voted in the recall of Commissioner Chris... and turned in your ballot.

Our two Socialists don't have a new episode this week, but they do have some brief ponderings about the holiday, followed by a quick but important reminder.We hope you enjoy this announcement, and have a happy holiday!

In this week's episode, Mr. Morgan and Mr. Kieffer watch "Commander" Chris' very bizarre one man meeting that somehow wasn't a meeting and turned into an information session for the public that somehow was mostly "Commander" Chris trying to negotiate the meaning of statutes and the county charter to try to make an argument for rescinding Ron Smith recusing himself from participating in selecting 🤮's replacement due to a conflict of interest.It is absolutely more convoluted than it sounds, and Barnett makes a complete and utter ass out himself, as per usual.

This week has been a really busy week for Josephine county, with lots of stuff to go over. Unfortunately our two socialists have limited time so we decided to cover the most recent developments in the ongoing Josephine County Commissioner recall petition. Barnett does an... interview... we guess... okay, we really don't think it technically qualifies as an interview. It doesn't really improve from there as the two subjects of the recall continue to make questionable decisions to manage damage control or the narrative, and their social media cheer leader really isn't helping.

In this week's episode Mr. Kieffer and Mr. Morgan talk about a written post Josephine County Commissioner "Commander" Chris made in response to the recall petition. Then our intrepid socialists listen to a couple of videos from one of our more hard right Conservatives and muse a little about how this person can misinterpret freedom of speech, and how this same person can turn a video about asking people to volunteer at the Josephine County Republican's office into an advertisement to sell Republican merchandise. Finally our socialists listen to, and comment on, a KOBI news clip about a decision that the Three Rivers' School District made. Mr. Kieffer again apologizes for the coughing, though there is less of it this time.
