  • Ep 381: A Bad Week For Eighties Kids
    Jul 28 2025

    in Ep. 381 Ken and Dave discuss Kemp going all in on Dooley, the DOJ going after a hiker, ending the state income tax, the Trump Powell dynamic, accusations against Obama, Trump goes down to Southpark, and a sex trafficking dungeon in Alabama.

    ------

    The episode begins with discussions about the hot weather in Georgia and Dave Roberts' recent trip to Nashville, Tennessee, which he found "booming" and "fairly safe" compared to Memphis's Beale Street. There's also a segment on recent celebrity deaths, including Ozzy Osbourne, Hulk Hogan, Malcolm Jamal Warner (Theo Huxtable), Chuck Mangione, and Connie Francis. Dave Roberts also recommended listening to Tucker Carlson's long-form podcast featuring Daryl Cooper, discussing the history of Jeffrey Epstein.


    Kemp-Dooley Connection & Georgia Senate Race: This topic covers the conflict between President Trump's political team and Governor Brian Kemp over the selection of a Republican candidate for the Georgia Senate race. Kemp is supporting former University of Tennessee football coach Derek Dooley, despite Trump's team being "pissed off" and likely to back Republican Rep. Mike Collins. The hosts express strong opinions against Dooley's candidacy and predict a primary clash.


    Hiking Prosecution in Grand Teton National Park: The hosts discuss the federal case against Michelino Sunseri, a trail runner cited for going on a closed, unmarked trail. They criticize the prosecution as "overcriminalization," noting that the National Park Service withdrew its support for the case and that it goes against a Trump executive order urging restraint on criminal penalties for unintentional conduct.


    Georgia Income Tax Elimination Initiative: Lt. Governor Burt Jones is leading a study committee to explore eliminating Georgia's 5% state income tax. The discussion highlights the challenge of replacing the significant revenue and the potential impact on sales and property taxes.


    Trump Visit to the Fed: This segment covers President Trump's meeting with Jerome Powell at the Federal Reserve to discuss lowering interest rates. Trump also commented on cost overruns for a new Fed building. It was clarified that the Fed fund rate affects car payments and credit cards, but not first mortgage rates.


    Obama's Treason Allegations: An investigation, initiated by Tulsi Gabbard and the National Intelligence Director, is discussed regarding allegations that Obama undermined Trump's 2016 election victory using a "fake dossier" (the Steele Report). The hosts call for transparency and accountability for figures like John Brennan. Dave Roberts states his belief that former presidents should be prosecuted if they commit crimes.


    South Park and Trump: The discussion touches on the latest season, Season 27, of South Park, which premiered focusing on "ending awokeness" and featuring a Trump character in a satirical storyline. The hosts emphasize that South Park's creators "have no sacred cows" and satirize everyone.


    The Mule (Sig Sauer P320): Concerns are raised over accidental discharges of the Sig Sauer P320 (M18 military version), including an incident where an Air Force Security Forces sergeant was killed. The Air Force has suspended its use, but Sig Sauer has refused to pull the pistol from the market. The hosts criticize the pistol's quality and accuracy.


    Horrible Story from Alabama: A shocking report details the discovery of a storm shelter near Birmingham, Alabama, used for child sex trafficking. Children as young as three and as old as fifteen were found chained, with one suspect being the mother of four of the ten rescued children. The hosts express outrage and call for severe justice for those involved.

  • Ep 380: Making A Cold Play On Crypto
    Jul 21 2025

    Ken and Dave discuss lowering the British voting age, Democrats on Epstein, Florida Man strikes again, Trump’s swollen ankles, ousting Colbert, Chris Carr getting dirty, PBS on its own, and the government gets involved in crypto.

    -----

    This episode of the "Let Me Tell You Why You're Wrong Podcast," hosted by Dave Roberts and Ken Pullin, covers a range of current events and political discussions.

    • Local Government Issues: Ken Pullin shares insights into Pike County's local government, including his dissent on tax incentives for a solar farm and the general lack of public discussion on important items in commission meetings. He expresses concern about decisions being made without proper deliberation and the absence of televised public meetings in Pike County, advocating for greater transparency. He also critiques past decisions by the Industrial Development Authority, such as losing money on movie studio projects during an economic downturn.

    • Coldplay "Kiss Cam" Scandal: The hosts discuss the viral incident involving Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR Head Kristine Cabot who were caught on a "Kiss Cam" at a Coldplay concert, leading to Byron being placed on leave. The clip showed them "cuddling and smiling" before attempting to hide when seeing themselves on screen. Social media reactions to the event were also highlighted.

    • Brant Frost Financial Scandal: An update is provided on Brandt Frost IV, who issued an apology for his actions, taking "full responsibility". The discussion raises questions about whether this will become a criminal matter and mentions calls for politicians to return campaign donations from the Frost family. Notably, Brant Frost V, the son, filed paperwork to create a new lending firm shortly after his father's firm shut down, which the hosts found suspiciously timed.

    • UK Voting Age & Populism: The UK's decision to lower the voting age to 16 in all elections is debated, with concerns raised about "taxation without representation" as the reasoning and the broader implications for populism in politics.

    • Epstein List Controversy: The ongoing saga of the Epstein list is touched upon, including the political back-and-forth regarding its release and the recent directive from Trump to release grand jury testimony. The hosts discuss the challenges of linking individuals on flight manifests to illegal activities.

    • Miscellaneous News:

    ◦ A Florida man was arrested for molesting goats at a zoo.

    ◦ A discussion about chimpanzees adopting fashion trends with grass and sticks.

    ◦ The media's focus on Donald Trump's chronic venous insufficiency (swollen ankles) is contrasted with their perceived lack of attention to President Biden's health.

    ◦ The cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in 2026 is announced, with critical commentary on Colbert's comedic style and political focus.

    ◦ The Georgia Governor's race is mentioned, specifically the legal challenge by Chris Carr against Burt Jones regarding a $10 million campaign loan.

    ◦ Congress's $9 billion budget cut, including over a billion dollars from NPR and PBS, is discussed and largely supported by the hosts, who argue public broadcasting should be self-funded.

    ◦ The new "Genius Act" regulating stablecoins is explained, highlighting the benefits of easier international money transfers but also raising concerns about a potential cashless society and government control over finances.

  • Ep 379: Political Ponzi Scheme
    Jul 14 2025

    Join Dave Roberts and Ken Pullin for Episode 379 of Let Me Tell You Why You Wrong, where they blend backyard reality with political insider drama. They open with life in Pike County under blistering summer skies—Ken’s just marked his 22nd wedding anniversary while juggling his daughter's Georgia Tech orientation (an $85 registration fee!) and the sticker shock of a $700 parking pass (Uber to the rescue, maybe). From there they steer into Atlanta’s frenzy—$400-plus tickets to the MLB All-Star Game, Beyoncé’s surprise country-music stop, and a preview of Whiskey Myers in Macon—before diving headlong into Georgia’s next big showdown.

    Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones finally threw his hat into the governor’s ring after the filing deadline, self-funding a $10 million launch video that features a surprise walk-on by Donald Trump and fond memories of his days kicking around the Bulldog football field. Dave and Ken unpack Jones’s platform—abolishing the state income tax, fighting fentanyl, barring trans girls from girls’ sports, and ending movie-industry tax credits—and compare it to Attorney General Chris Carr’s $3.5 million war chest, the ever-teasing Marjorie Taylor Greene, and other potential contenders like Brad Raffensperger and Mike Collins.

    No Georgia episode would be complete without scandal, and this week the Frost family of Newnan steals the spotlight. Once major Republican donors, Brandt Frost 4 and his son Brandt Frost 5 now face an SEC civil suit accusing them of fleecing roughly 300 investors out of $140 million through their “Patriot Funds/Dollars” program, promising implausible 12–18% returns on risky loans while allegedly funneling $19 million into their own pockets (including a $320 000 rental home) and dumping $570 000 into political contributions.

    They round out the show with a look at federal policy and public-health alarms: DHS’s sudden end to the 19-year shoe-removal rule, Pam Bondi’s flip-flop on the Epstein “no list,” an “activist judge” stay blocking Planned Parenthood defunding, and the routine—but controversial—purge of 478 000 Georgia voter-registration records. On the home front, one in three U.S. teens now carries pre-diabetes, a Delta A330’s engine failure led to a 30-hour layover in the Azores, and Washington County’s DUI cover-up—where private hires of a certain public defender triggered wholesale dismissals—remains a cautionary tale. Unfiltered, unapologetic, and undeniably Georgia, it’s another roller-coaster hour with Dave and Ken.
