The Tom Barnard Show

He'll never walk alone.  Who?  You'll have to buy Pat's new album to find out.  You've heard of Pat.  Over 2300 songs, 45 million record sales, 13 gold singles.  He's still at it, and he's singing his support for law enforcement, and the training thereof.  Sometimes if something isn't working perfectly the answer is to fix it, not throw it away. “He’ll Never Walk Alone” - bit.ly/PatBooneLimitedSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hunting Whitey isn't just for the modern protester; they've been doing it for decades.  It might be worth noting that back then they were hunting Whitey Bulger specifically, but let's not get caught up in pedantry.  Let's do get caught up in the story of what a psychopath Whitey Bulger was and the story of his downfall.

It's time for theaters to make money again, which is a good thing because things haven't been great for them for the past 6 months.  They're also going retro: Champlin's getting a new drive-in, because although nobody's observing any sort of social distancing any more, businesses still have to.  It's a good thing out of a bad situation.  Older people can enjoy the nostalgia, and younger people will be trapped in their parents' cars so they won't bother you when they play Candy Crush instead of watching the movie.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Civil war may or may not be looming on the horizon, but there's good news: there probably won't be trenches and mustard gas.  For all its faults, war is certainly less brutal than it was even just 50 years ago.  Also we'll have plenty of hilarious bite-sized videos to keep us entertained during the down periods.  You know not even a war could stop Facebook from getting into your home.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are more political ideologies than drops of water in the ocean.  Most of them are relics of the past, such as feudalism.  You never hear anyone trying to bring that back.  One major standout is socialism, an ideology that didn't do so well (to put it lightly) during the early 20th century yet is seeing a revival today.  Why are we looking to the past instead of the future?  Why is it assumed that every dead ideology is dead for a reason except that one?  Come join the speculation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The media has done a pretty good job of getting a lot of people killed lately, which is strange because they're constantly telling us how much empathy and love for humanity they have.  It almost makes you wonder if they care more about money than human lives.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you're sufficiently old, you remember when talk shows were The Thing.  Everyone loved them, everyone talked about them.  Kind of like sitcoms back in the 90s.  Times have certainly changed for both of those genres, and time has not been kind.  Then again, horrible partisan writing has also not been kind.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Opiates are one of those double-edged swords.  There's nothing better for managing pain.  They're pretty much mandatory for people with severe pain.  They're also extremely addictive and deadly in the wrong hands.  There's plenty of blame to go around, too.  Are over-prescribing doctors to blame?  Overzealous pharmaceutical reps?  False marketing?  The jury is still out.   Cold Comfort: One man's struggle to stop the illegal marketing of powerful opioid drugs and save lives - amzn.to/3eatJkHSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In his long-awaited 2020 sports debut, Costaki's back to talking about the topic he knows best.  Except there still aren't many sports being sported, so it's less about the sports and more about the ways fans make everyone think they're insane.  Like drinking milk.  A truer display of barbarism I've never seen.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With businesses opening up, will the movie theater still survive? Only time can tell on that one. As long as new, original ideas come out...they have a shot at least. Better than TV just throwing together season finales and see what sticks. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
