Strongly Worded: Recent Episodes

Johnny & Sue

Created from the texts and talks of two friends who both have strongly worded opinions on everything from youth sports, to parenthood, to politics, to surviving the insanity that is 2020, Strongly Worded has a lot to say, and Johnny and Sue are just the ones to say it.

Say what? today seeks to define another of the Right's favorite insults, the RADICAL LEFT, and both Johnny and Sue learn something about themselves in the process. Then we begin a discussion on The Dead Internet Theory, and in Whatcha Watching, we have another amazing documentary recommendation for those who are nostalgic for the nineties.

For anyone interested, The Ronald McDonald House is an important and amazing organization focused on keeping families close to hospitalized children.
