Furthermore, we discuss Bob Iger's tone-deaf comments about the SAG-AFTRA strike which are being lead by Fran Drescher ... y'all probably remember her from The Nanny but now she's the President.

Ethan hosts our podcast this week and he leads us on a fascinating discussion regarding the breaking news of last week: flying cars, alcohol, the launch of Threads, and Skai Jackson's MacBook raffle. We'll be honest ... we're a little lazy to do a proper description because editing so the podcast goes up on Spotify with audio only and YouTube with video was rough. Christian was out this week due to personal reasons; we both miss you Christian and hope you’ll be able to come back soon.We all know there are way too many social media websites but if you follow us on even just one of them it'd help the podcast out a lot:YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@TheBouncingPotatoesInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/thebouncingpotatoes/Twitter - https://twitter.com/thebpotatoesThreads - https://www.threads.net/@thebouncingpotatoes
Christian is our host for this week's episode and he leads us on another spirited discussion regarding three major Supreme Court decisions from last week: affirmative action, student loan forgiveness, and a Colorado law that bars discrimination based on sexual orientation, race, gender and other characteristics.Later in the podcast, Ethan and Christian (as usual) disagree with Osandha regarding the controversial topic of reparations. Lastly, we answer a "deep" question about where in the world we would live for 5 years if money and citizenship were not factors.Christian's ending quote this week is "Rush to infinity!" Which means that if you're close to the end of something -> don't quit before the last second / do not give up too early.Follow Us On Socials: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebouncingpotatoes/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/TB2Potatoes YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheBouncingPotatoes TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@thebouncingpotatoes
Happy Stitch Day! In this week's episode we discuss why we think OceanGate received more news and social media coverage than the Migrant boat sinking.Here's an article to read if you want to know more about the latter: https://www.cnn.com/2023/06/23/europe/greece-migrant-boat-disaster-investigation-intl-cmd/index.htmlAdditionally, we get into a couple heated debates about immigration, universal basic income, and "low-skilled" vs "skilled" workers.
