Raging Rhino Podcast

Burly. Surly. Thick-skinned.

A brief moment at the opening to say goodbye to one of the favorite TV stars of my youth. Then, the subtle lesson a classic movie teaches us.

What do art, the color green, gay marriage, free-range parenting, and self-defense have in common? Beginning with Peanuts and ending with Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, I’ll explain.

A tax cut is good, but what we really need is tax demolition.

An unwanted topic for this month due to the events and reactions of early October.

The past few months I’ve been talking about the dangers of the encroaching collectivist factions on our lives. Here is a microcosm of one in action.

This was not an easy one; the research made me ill.  A cringe-inducing in-depth look at the Nazi Party platform of World War II.  See how nefarious they really are from an angle most people do not see.

How the collectivists worm their way into our lives.

The first 20:45 of this episode is about my history with the great DC Comics character and a review of the Wonder Woman movie.  The remaining time is a political discussion about topics in the periphery of the movie.

What started as a memory in honor of the loss of Chris Cornell turned into a monologue on my generation and the generations before and after.  I am angry.  I am sad.  I am getting some frustration off my chest. Catharsis.

This month’s podcast has commentary on events that mostly befuddle me:  Red Eye’s cancellation, the United overbooked passenger controversy, Earth Day, and others.

With all the political preening, posturing, and protesting, I can guarantee on thing: I don’t trust any of it.

I need a break from the morass of politics, so this is a bit of a 2016 year in review that’s about 60% fun, 20% sad, and 20% politics. Oh, and a warning – I get really really loud about 16:20 into the podcast.

Doing things a little different this time.  This podcast is a commentary on a TED Talk from Dan Pallotta on rethinking how we look at charity.  While I cite his speech regularly, for a thorough understanding of his point of view, I highly recommend clicking the link and giving his ideas a listen in conjunction…

Post mortem on the 2016 presidential election

How a very unpleasant recent experience made me take a slightly different look at the 2016 elections. This is one I would like you to listen to and share before Election Day if possible.

Quarterbacks.  Anthems.  Controversies.

Part pop-culture, part politics, this podcast has a spoiler-filled review of Suicide Squad and political musings inspired by the movie.

In the aftermath of the Pulse nightclub tragedy in Orlando, a monologue about LGBT liberties, religious freedom, and gun rights.

Politics, religion, sex, they’ll find any excuse to divide us.  How we respond will define us.

Special thanks to The Bladtcast for unknowingly giving me the inspiration for this month’s episode.  This is an assortment of topics with one thing in common: they all have people that make me want to say “fuck you.”
