This is our last episode!
(That’s a lie!)
We are “rebranding” to TrumpCast…an all-Trump, all the time podcast!
(That’s a lie, too!)
We’re liars, all right!
So…listen to us talk about lying for twelve hours!
(Or maybe an hour and change…)
(Damn Gorillamen liarheads! PANTS ON FIRE!!!)
(HATE those guys!)
Oh, but this is not a lie…you’ve heard us mention Curtis Hart many times on the show…perhaps, most notably, on the religion episode.
Well…his mighty-assed son had a medical setback. And, if it’s in your heart to help out, you can…
On to the show…
* * *
We start with the first lies we remember hearing…and the first lies we ever told. After that, we go there: “Were you ever a habitual liar?” (Oh, Christopher…you sad, sad thing…) And then, find out the most outrageous lies we ever told.
But the past is the past: find out if we still lie today? (And why we might have stopped.)
We chat about why we think people lie…before talking about if we’ve ever been manipulated by lies. (Oh, Christopher…you poor, dear lad. Holy shit, that is TRAGIC!!!)
Hey, it’s the day Cohen turned on Trump and Monafort went down on eight guilty counts (with more to [probably] come). So…how dangerous is it having a president who lies daily? (Yeah, we go there!)
After talking about the Circus-Peanut-Colored shit-lord of a president, we ask this simple question: Is it ever okay to lie?
Like it or not, there’s a line between tiny lies many tell and BIG lies. We discuss where that line is, and then ask if society conditions people to lie…even a little bit.
And we wrap it all up with what advice we’d give to someone who lies a lot…

Hold up… Hell Comes was a lie?!?
Nope…all true. Saying it was fiction is the only lie. We’ve all known a Chihuahua or two, and they are possessed beings! The book is wholly accurate!
Hold up… Shawn can speak in tongues?!?
Speaking of novels and amazing abilities, I now have several literary agents competing for the privilege of representing my novel. And I finally organized my home office so that I can find things. And I grew New Hampshire’s biggest ever pumpkin this year. Thought I’d share the great news here. 🙂
I love the thought of you pitting the agents against each other in a Thunderdome to fight for the right to represent you! But kidding aside, that is wonderful — congratulations…and well deserving. I know you really did a lot with the rewrites, and it’s awesome that it worked out well 🙂
It’s funny…since childhood, when I’ve seen someone posing with a giant pumpkin or other thing from a garden…I’ve always envied those people. Like hero level envy. So…literary agents vying for your attention and the biggest pumpkin in New Hampshire. I’m sure SOMEWHERE in our babbling I said I hoped 2018 would be your year. Clearly, I’m psychic!
Oh gee… maybe I should’ve added that I found a hobbit living in my compost pile, and that this hobbit told me to tell you those other things…
I had to check the title of this post again…
