Long in the Boot: Recent Episodes
Glenn
After a Long hiatus, Long in the Boot returns with a Willy Wonka inspired episode. First, Deb takes a look at the creator of Wonka, Roald Dahl, to discover what inspired him to create the chocolaty tale. G. Long and Deb follow that with a comparison of the story to today's headlines. It may surprise absolutely no one that many of our current government officials follow the teachings of Veruca Salt when making the important decisions that affect us all. It's a sweet to hear treat on this episode of the Long in the Boot Podcast!

At long last, this is where we are. All we have left is mockery and satire, combined with incredulity. G. Long and Deb discuss the never ending reality show that is the current administration. From Government ownership of business to ethnic cleansing, from violations of due process to military occupation. There is nothing this administration won't do in order to secure power forever. Join us as we discuss the national man-baby's march to dictatorship on this episode of the Long in the Boot Podcast!

A little late but we made it! This week, we take a look at societal and cultural evolution in the age of the "device". Television used to be feared but today's screens are far beyond what people envisioned just 50 years ago. What happens to a society when the device becomes an extension of our senses or when we allow the almighty algorithm to dictate what we see and hear? From "Memetics" to "The Virus of the Mind" to the ideas behind the 1983 movie, "Videodrome", G. Long and Deb try to bring it all together on this episode of The Long in the Boot Podcast.

You might think that A.I., Epstein, and Love Dolls have nothing to do with one another but think again! G. Long and Deb find the connections that others fail to see...or hear....or something like that. We'll take a look at the Epstein Coverup and how Pam Bondi can't seem to find any evidence. We will also look at the confluence of Artificial Intelligence and Sex Dolls and how the digital age is changing our culture and society. How will this affect men, women, and relationships going forward? Will we succumb to "The Eliza Effect"? (Don't worry, we'll explain that one.) There are even some folks who believe A. I. will replace God in the very near future! All of this and more from the Long In The Boot Podcast!

After a long hiatus, G. Long and Deb are back behind the microphones with a question. What happens when trust in the foundations of our democracy is broken? Can a republic even function without a basic trust in our political, business, and judicial leaders? Along with those heavy questions, Deb takes a look at hand gestures through history and her investigation might surprise you. Long in the Boot begins its sixth year with a look at the loss of trust in those that lead and why many of our leaders deserve a certain hand gesture that we all know and love.

The last episode had us looking at the age old tradition of telling lies, so it only seems right to go the other way! Speaking truth though, can often get the speaker in trouble unless done in a careful way! This week, G. Long and Deb are discussing satire in history. Satire, especially comedic satire, has been used to speak truth about leaders, despots, society, religion, and everything in between for more than a thousand years. Plato, Erasmus, Swift, Twain, and others have demonstrated that satire is often more effective in cutting through the bullsh*t, than even the sharpest knife. We take a look at satire in history on this episode of the Long in the Boot Podcast!

These days, lies seem to be flying all around us. Everywhere and all the time, lies are set free. What is it about the human condition that motivates people to lie?
G. Long and Deb take a look at the history of lying and what modern science tells us about how quickly we learn the art of telling lies. Is it possible that we are taught to lie almost from birth? All this and a dash of politics on this episode of the Long In The Boot Podcast!

Throughout the entire history of humanity, empathy has been shown to serve mankind by allowing us to raise decent children, treat others with respect, and generally make the world a better place. Plato said that empathy was the highest form of human knowledge. Elon Musk says empathy is Western Civilization's greatest weakness and attempts to prove it by showing zero empathy to those he harms. Who is right? One of the greatest thinkers of human history or some guy that grew up rich and privileged in a racist, apartheid South Africa?
G. Long and Deb take a look at empathy on this week's Long in the Boot Podcast.

Trump gave his self congratulatory speech last night and even though it went on for five hours, G.Long and Deb were there for every boring minute. There were good points. There were bad points. There was much shouting, standing, and sitting back down again. Highlights included "Biden Sucks Trump Great", "Drill Baby Drill", and the classic "I'm just like George Washington". It was speech that will be remembered for tens of minutes on this week's Long in the Boot Podcast!

So grab a chunk of cheese and take the wheel as we investigate a wedge of the bizarre history of butter and cheese.

It is often said that clothes make the man or woman. What happens though, when “the man” uses clothing or outfits to control others? G. Long and Deb look at uniforms, dress codes, and sumptuary laws through the ages. Whether it was the fabric, the color, furs, or silk, those in the upper classes were determined to control the masses by punishing those who disobeyed the laws of fashion. Often, the wrong choice could mean death!
Even today, there are those who seek to control others by regulating clothing and fashion choices. So find your purple toga, your weasel fur, or yoga pants and join us for a discussion of control by clothing on this episode of the Long in the Boot Podcast.

The prickly thorns of outrageous stubble,
Or to take arms against a sea of razors,
And by opposing, end them. To shave, to trim— No more....

Equal justice under the law? We ran out of that kind, but we can let you have some of this special justice if you are rich and powerful enough to buy it! These days, everybody wonders why we have lost faith in our politicians, business leaders, and role-models. Maybe failing to hold them accountable to the laws that are supposed to apply to everyone has something to do with it.
G. Long and Deb discuss the ridiculously light punishments that the rich often receive (if they are punished at all) due to their fame, connections, and willing judges on this episode of Long in the Boot!

Scrotaclese, Testiculus, and Bophadees, three of the greatest philosophers of ancient history, all agreed that aesthetics were the measure of a well-groomed man. This week, G. Long and Deb will discuss how science and marketing are trying to help men achieve perfection in an oft-ignored area of the male anatomy. From lifting up to smoothing out, science is hard at work trying to establish what makes an aesthetically pleasing sack for a man’s tackle! We aren’t forgetting the ladies either as we explore the history of women’s hygiene and ask why advertisers tried to kill women with dubious products that promised to help with that “one little problem”. We are taking a deep dive into the nether regions of science on this episode of the Long in the Boot Podcast!

G. Long and Deb take a dive into the world of science, robotic consciousness, and technology and whether we should be afraid or excited. What does it even mean to be conscious if you are a machine? Science is racing headlong into creating artificial self awareness and consciousness in thinking machines while ignoring the possibilities that such machines present. Meanwhile, some young people are rejecting digital communication in favor of actually talking face to face and engaging with others via spoken word! Scary stuff! Finally, How does all this connect to Ted Kaczynski (The Unabomber)? Join G. Long and Deb as we ask the question: Is technology going to be the death of us or will it simply enslave the masses?

It's a Labor Day Special Episode! Deb has thrown down the gauntlet and refused to work this Labor Day. She is currently leading protests against the crushing heel of her corporate overlord, G. Long. The jokes on her though. Just a few short weeks ago I got to interview my son, Technical Sergeant Dakota Long of the U.S. Air Force and we talked of his experiences as a serviceman, husband, and father over the past decade. It's not often that a father gets to conduct an interview with his son and I couldn't be happier to have had the chance.

We will be back in a couple weeks with our usual nonsense but for now, enjoy this Labor Day treat from the Long in the Boot Family.
