2022-08-11: Snake Bulge - a podcast by Samuel Minter / Iván Bou

On this week's Curmudgeon's Corner Sam and Ivan discuss charging stations for electric vehicles, having lulls at work, Sam's impressions of Encanto, and how Disney+ is loaded with nostalgia traps, including the 1979 masterpiece "The Black Hole". Oh, you wanted actual news and current events? OK, fine, they do spend almost an hour on the raid on Mar-a-Lago, Trump pleading the 5th, and other investigative updates, and the potential impact on politics. And then even more time on economic trends as well. So plenty of that too.
