83. F*ck Your Gun Rights, Jackie Robinson Jokes, White Terror & Miami HEAT - a podcast by Chris Ham

I start the show with perhaps my angriest rant yet.  I talk about the tragic ELEMENTARY school shooting in Texas and some of the narratives by gun nuts.(0:00-9:10)

My originally recorded intro- the episode was on remote location from Miami! I discuss how hard it is to be away from my kids even though I was enjoying a recharge.  (9:10-14:16)

The first topic we kick off is around the New York Yankees, Josh Donaladson and Chicago White Sox shortstop, Tim Anderson.  Why saying "Jackie" while to me doesnt deserve a suspension, is not innocuous and signals racism even if white America doesn't want to believe it. I talk about a controversial litmus test I do to see how racially sensitive somebody is. (14:20-25:07)

I then segue to why the Donaldson monicker for Anderson has to be considered in the context of racial issues in the United States.  I discuss the HORRIFIC Buffalo grocery store shooting by a white terrorist and my unorthodox solution for this country around drawing new borders(25:11-37:40)

I segue to the lighter topic of Miami as a city and my observations from my most recent trip- the weather, the shady character element, dress confidence, being perceived as Latin, Covid, and more (37:44-56:05)

Hammer Rants: airplane entitlement; up/down as synonyms
