Hey guys! Tonight was a lot of fun! I got to rip on the State of the Union address a little bit, and then Satnaam Singh Mago joins the show to talk about turbans in the military and Sikhism in America. Satnaam sheds some light on what he and others in his faith face every day in a post-9/11 world.

We also get funky with some Pharrell Williams, Daft Punk and Brothers Johnson… “Cause Sikhs like to party!” – Satnaam

Hope you enjoy!

P.S. I announce on the show as well that this will be my last podcast for a few weeks, as I will be in China and unable to access much of anything online. But I will certainly be back in mid-to-late February, fresher than ever, to tell you about my crazy adventures. Stick with me, you won’t regret it!

Hey guys, welcome back! Tonight, in light of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and all the craziness that followed I decided to focus tonight’s show on RAAACISM in a post MLK-America. I take on the GOP, the NAACP, President Obama and Sarah Palin. Then, Washington Times writer and Breaking Beltway contributor Douglas Ernst joins in on the fun to help tackle NFL cornerback Richard Sherman, Rev. Jeremiah Wright and the creator of the #NotYourAsianSidekick hashtag, Suey Park.

We also rock out to Meatloaf’s “Paradise by the Dashboard Light,” Etta Jones’ “Black Bird,” Pearl Jam’s “W.M.A.,” Depeche Mode’s “People are People,” and Marley’s “Redemption Song.”

Hope you enjoy!

Woohoo, tonight you have me all to yourself! On tonight’s episode I tackle sexting laws and Jimmy Kimmel’s ongoing row with Chinese Americans. Then I talk about people who have lost their damn minds — ex-cop Curtis Reeves who killed a guy in a movie theater for texting too loudly and a grandpa fight at the Wal-Mart checkout line. Then we travel on over to Hollyweird to rip Justin Bieber, Sean Penn, Anderson Cooper and David Russell.

We also rock out to some Toots and the Maytals, Johnny Cash, Warren Zevon, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Dr. Dog!

Hope you guys like it!

Hey guys, welcome back to another episode of Breaking Beltway! Tonight, I get to unload on Dennis Rodman, Greg Anthony and the Kim Dynasty, all while rockin’ out to some Duffy, Dispatch, ZZ Top and Bad Company!

Then, founder and CEO of Hestia Tobacco (and fellow libertarian) David Sley will join the show to talk about his 100% independent, 100% all-natural tobacco products. If you’re not ready to quit, but are looking to break free from Big Tobacco, just listen to the end of the show and I’ll give you an offer code for 15% off all Hestia products!

Thanks for listening!

Welcome back! I’m so excited tonight to wrap up the year with you guys! For tonight’s podcast, I’m doing a bit of a round-up. I usually record on Wednesday nights, but since I will most likely still be nursing my wine flu by then, I lazed through this one and am giving you a 2013 roundup of the funniest and most informative Breaking Beltway segments of the year!

Former co-host Katherine Timpf and I tackle Sharia law and online dating, Washington Times digital editor Douglas Ernst joins to talk about Pajama Boy and the wussification of American men; I solo blast militant atheism and play a song with Carly Harvey and Tristan Buckley; and 8-year-old Hailey Reece wraps it all up with her favorite thing about Christmas!

We also rock out to Sons of the Sea, The Neighbourhood, Robert Randolph, the Dead Weather, John Frusciante and Paramore!

Thanks for helping make 2013 a great year!
