The Q - Ep. 256 - Bon Voyage - a podcast by Robert Hickman

Well Vitaly has been in the country since December and its time for him and his wife to make that fateful trip back to the USSR here in a week.  But before he goes, Mark decides to bring him onto the show one more time to talk about Donald Trump, The Brussel's Attacks and the value of living in 2016.  But he forced us to have Proucer Bobby on the show too if he came on...begrudgingly we said OK.

First up is a fun filled rant from Mark.  Being a father and family man, Mark understands the value of a Family LockerRoom at a local pool.  Evidently the people at the new complex in a local STL municipality do not appreciate the value of said family sized things and spent all their money not making proper accomodations in Mark's opinion. 

Next up Mark discusses the Brussels Attack and how he feels that it might have been deterred if two things happen:

1. focus on why they are choosing these french speaking areas to attack

2. Start being more judgmental of the people in their country and start using a little profiling to tighten up the ranks.  Not negative stereotyping, but focusing on similarities that lead to dangerous situations.

Finally Mark, Bobby and Vitaly discuss the Donald Trump phenomenon and how our society in the USA kinda created this vitriolic rheotric and attitude.  Explaining why Trump seems to reasonate with the base of voters that love him.  And also discussing the potential for the convention to be contested.
