Podcast: No Hyperbole Allowed (Episode 16) - a podcast by Richard Min and Colin Patrick OHiggins
from 2012-05-11T13:00
Remember us? We were just playing hard-to-get and it worked because you're reading this and soon are about to listen tothis.
After a 24-day delay mostly due to Colin's personal emergency (Seriously, don't ask. And no, it's not weird to grow a extra fingers suddenly at age 33) and marginally due to Rich's decision to go "find himself" backing in Europe, we are back and better than ever. (Warning: this sentence contains hyperbole. Please proceed with caution.)
This week, Rich and Colin get reacquainted and what better way to do that than by talking politics. After that, we actually talk about something we agree on... our love for Mad Men.
1:06 - Intro (US mini-series = English series; Hi Bobby!; Teasing Topics)
5:30 - USPS or UPS? (Colin goes postal)
9:00 - National Correspondent's Dinner; Is the Daily Show a news show?
16:05 - Musings on Mitt Romney
20:15 - Colin's ideal Presidential candidate (Hint: Must be Hot)
27:20 - Rich is not a fan of Gore v. Bush or the Electoral College
43:35 - Presidential Politics

1:24:20 - Outro
Here's video of theWhite House Correspondents' Dinner, as promised by Colin. After watching Jimmy Kimmel's opening, you can find a link to the President's remarks. Very funny stuff, but only if you watch the news and follow politics and current events. They don't call it "Nerd Prom" for nothing.
