2022-01-14: Bally Poppet - a podcast by Samuel Minter / Iván Bou

On this week's Curmudgeon's Corner, Sam and Ivan discuss the pandemic, Biden's legislative morass, and the latest on January 6th investigations and indictments. But first, Sam complains about his computer and the difficulties it has been giving him lately, while Ivan fantasizes about a fancy new desk and chopping his current one up into little tiny bits.
