There are a growing number of “prophets” appearing in this country who claim to be messengers for God. Sometimes their predictions are right, like when one predicted the Chiefs would win the Super Bowl in 2020. Most times they’re wrong, like when they proclaim that Donald Trump will win a second term, or that he’s been anointed by God, or that he’s not a complete piece of shit. Join along as as we talk about political prophecies, why the prophets are dangerous, and what happens when these so called prophets are wrong. Grab some sacramental wine and laugh along with us.

We all occasionally read our horoscopes and have a good laugh, share with friends, or wonder what the hell it could possibly mean. But some take these things very seriously. On this episode we talk horoscopes and we dabble in astrology. We’re pretty sure we’re all astrologers now too. It doesn’t seem very hard to get that title. Grab a crystal, invite your favorite high society neo-shaman over, and let’s find out what your future holds. Brought to you By: The Sonar Network

Donald Trump did his best to destroy and pillage some of the most beautiful places in this country. Hopefully beginning in mid-January we can work to undo...well...pretty much everything he did in the past four years. On this episode John guides us through a discussion about national parks and federal land. We talk about Teddy Roosevelt, the massive efforts over the years to protect federal lands, and how one administration sought to destroy those efforts in record time. Also, Greg really, really likes Cool Ranch Doritos.

If you’ve listened to our show the one thing you undoubtedly don’t want from the three of us is advice. After all, in our last episode about the stock market Kevin suggested people should invest in Netscape. But Greg decided to give the advice game a go anyway. On this episode we discuss the 7 year itch. Why do people get a wandering eye and how can couples prevent it? Greg has all the answers. Brought to you By: The Sonar Network

Some people bet on sports, others on the ponies, many love Las Vegas, and still others bet on how many slices of pepperoni a pizza will have when it arrives. Whatever your preferred game of chance one thing is for sure: humans love to bet on things. On the latest episode of HDI Greg takes us through the psychology of gambling. Money will be lost, relationships will be broken, and a man who placed a bet on Tiger Woods will give us a fit not seen since the days of Eric the Anal. Adducci!
