Guest Rants - I would like to include guests, but let’s just record them ahead of time. That is what some other shows do and I think the scheduling would be a lot easier. This could be with either one of us, doesn’t have to be together and we could bank some as well. --- Agreed
Intro Song - 1 ½ Alhambra’s Cover of Kanye West - Jesus Walks
(insert awesomeness here)
Outro Song - Peter Lee Johnson’s Cover of Lil Wayne - Right Above It (on Violin!) 1:40 - End

Our caller this week was Matt Wagner of York, PA. My friend and former roommate at Penn State.
Hip-Hop songs covered in awesome ways. All started for me with Rage Against the Machine’s ‘Renegades’ album, but highlights include Obadiah Parker’s cover or Outkast’s ‘Hey Ya,’ Peter Lee Johnson’s violin cover of Lil Wayne’s ‘Right Above it,’ Walk off the Earth’s cover of ‘Roll Up’ by Wiz Khalifa, and 1 ½ Alhambra’s pop cover of Kanye West’s ‘Jesus Walks.’

Obama v. Reagan: Fun comparison to piss off a wingnut on Reagan's B-day
In a side-by-side comparison of Obama and Reagan, most people would have no idea whose policies are whose. All they know is they “hate” or “dislike” Obama
Game Change movie - shows a bit how the Republicans got where they are. Old School (R)’s would actually be more like today’s liberals: stay out of the bedroom, spend big $ on infrastructure (Eisenhower), don’t spend into a deficit, be cautious and use diplomacy in foreign affairs, emphasize states’ rights, and leave people alone as long as they aren’t harming anyone else.
Comedy is philosophy in the modern age. Here’s proof:
Bill Hicks, George Carlin, and Richard Pryor - Comedy Legends
Bill Hicks “It’s Just a Ride” (NSFW)
George Carlin “The Illusion of Choice (NSFW)”
Richard Pryor “First Black President”

Kanye signed Q-Tip to his label. In my dreams, they make a real Watch the Throne, it's the best of Kanye's production, he raps like his first 2 albums, and Q-Tip does his thing... I hope this deal uplifts the label without diminishing Q-Tip's credibility and integrity.

The Obama administration is the toughest ever when it comes to deporting illegal immigrants (This American Life #456: Reap What You Sow 1/29/12). The administration deported 392,862 in 2010, and over a million since Obama took office. He’s on track to deport more undocumented immigrants in 4 years than W. Bush did in 8 years.
