Has Rick's involvement with the Bigfoot world ruined any skeptical integrity he may have? Or is he able to see things from a different perspective? Tim and Rick discover they both have a commonality with their experiences... unexplained phenomena affecting their lights and electrical equipment. This week’s “Let's Trigger Rictor” segment is about the rematch we never asked for: Biden vs. Trump. God help us.

  • The State of Georgia vs. Donald J. Trump
    Aug 23 2023

    The twice impeached, quadrupled indicted criminal ex-president, Donald John Trump, is now facing a grand total of 91 felonies that include racketeering and conspiracy charges to steal the 2020 presidential election. Georgia’s Fulton County District Attorney, Fani Willis is playing hardball and brought RICO charges against Trump and his merry band of sycophants. On this podcast, Rick and Tim break down the 13 charges Trump is facing and who his naughty accomplices are. He is charged with violating state racketeering laws and soliciting a public official to violate his oath of office (Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger), conspiring to commit forgery in the first degree, conspiring to file false documents, and making false statements.

    Trump’s criminal enterprise includes our 911 fallen America’s Mayor, Rudy Giuliani, farting his way into infamy with, like Trump, also has 13 charges. The blond Twitter troll and MAGA blond bimbo, Jenna Ellis, has 2 charges of her own for interfering with the election. The cuckoo lady, Sidney Powell, is facing 7 counts of violating Georgia’s racketeering laws, conspiracy to commit election fraud, conspiracy to commit computer theft, conspiracy to commit computer trespass, conspiracy to commit computer invasion of privacy, and conspiracy to defraud the state. Attorney Kenneth Chesebro has 7 counts against him because he was the first to suggest the false electors strategy. Trump’s coup architect, John Eastman, has 9 charges, and Trump’s Chief of Staff, Mark Meadows, has 2 counts of conspiracy for allegedly being deeply involved in the efforts to keep Trump in power. He organized phone calls with Georgia state officials and communicated with Trump allies as they pushed election conspiracy theories. Justice Department lawyer, Jeffrey Clark, has 2 counts of violating the state’s racketeering laws and a criminal attempt to create false statements and writings.

    MAGA school teacher Cathy Latham has 11 counts of attempting to steal the election as a fake elector. Georgia State Senator Shawn Still has 7 counts as a fake elector along with David Shafer who has 8 counts for being a fraud. He portrayed himself as the “chairperson” of the Electoral College of Georgia and filed 16 fake electoral votes for Trump.

    Illinois police officer Stephen Lee has 5 counts for intimidating election workers Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman. Kanye West’s publicist, Trevian Kutti, has 3 counts for trying to intimidate Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman. The Director of Black Voices for Trump Willy Floyd has 3 counts for arranging Trevian Kutti to meet Ruby and Shay. Robert Cheeley has 10 counts going against him, Michael Roman has 7 counts, Ray Stallings Smith the 3rd has a staggering 12 counts, Coffee County election supervisor Misty Hampton has 7 counts of conspiracy for helping Trump supporters access Coffee County’s voting equipment. Last but not least, Trump supporter, Bail Bondsman Scott Graham, has 7 counts for messing with the voting equipment in a restricted area.

    Tim successfully triggers Rick with this week’s “Let's Trigger Rictor” segment regarding MAGA and what should be done to them. Clips include reformed MAGA insurrectionist Pam Hemphill, testimony from the January 6 Commission, MSNBC, Vice News, and CNN.

  • The United States of America vs. Donald J. Trump
    Aug 11 2023

    The United States of America vs Donald Trump indictment includes the accusations that Trump knew he lost the 2020 election even though his officials told him so. It also alleges Trump enlisted the help of six co-conspirators (and we think we know who four of them are). It has the false elector scheme and a top justice department officials’ effort to delay election certification.  Trump turned on Pence as January Six approached, and details how Trump reacted to the attack on the Capitol. As of the podcast recording, Trump faces 78 felony charges in total stemming from the Stormy Daniels Case, the stealing classified documents, and the January Six Insurrection. We don’t know what the Georgia indictments will bring just yet.

    Rick and Tim go over Trump's J6 co-conspirators: Rudy Giuliani (Mr. Farts and Sexual Harassment), John Eastman (Mr. I Plead The Fifth), Sidney Powell (Ms. Dominion Cuckoo), and Jeffrey Clark (Mr. Insurrection Architect).  They also try to guess who the other unnamed conspirators are. Who could they be? Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows? Former Senior Advisor Jared Kushner? Attorney Kenneth Chesebro? Wife of Supreme Court Justice Ginni Thomas? And then there’s Steven Miller, Roger Stone, Steve Bannon, and Pillow Boy Mike Lindell. Trump's defense for inciting the insurrection is Freedom of Speech. But his words, “Fight like hell” aren't an opinion, it’s direction. Rick asks Tim why does the Republican Party still put Trump on a golden pedestal? Tim’s answer: Because they can’t afford to lose their base. The recent New York Times/Sienna Poll is discussed and the reason why Republicans still like Trump is because he’s “fun.”

    Mitch McConnell was booed at a recent political event which brings up the discussion of Republicans abusing our political institutions by not playing fair, and trying to do everything they can to gain power, even if it means exploitation through disruption. That also includes using religion as a tool to gain power and money. For example, what the previous Wyoming representative, Liz Cheney, once claimed Democrats were doing to babies. Mike Pence has finally flipped on Trump, but is it too little too late? Trump’s Mobb-like social media posts are filled with innuendo and are going to be getting him in trouble with the Department of Justice. Republican candidate Chris Christie has a few things to say about Donald Trump and Tim thinks Christie knows he's not going to win and is only doing this to bring down Donald Trump.

    This week’s “Let's Trigger Rictor” segment is about Jason Aldean and his MAGAtastic song, “In A Small Town.” Clips included are from NBC News, CNN, Politico, and TikTokker TheRealDoubledeemuva.
