17 SEP 2026 · In the quarter century since 9/11, we revisit our memories and an original satirical broadcast in Portland, Maine created, recorded and broadcast that same autumn, followed by Evan Hurst of Wonkette describing the current bigotry still percolating in NYC, focused on Mayor Mamdani's attendance at 9/11 events in the city. This Wonkette story is preceded by our NPR parody, and finally, live standup at the WMPG studio in Portland, Maine, featuring local comic Cloud Morris.
10 SEP 2026 · J.D. Vance regales us with his tale about his bromance with Tucker Carlson, despite Carlson's raging case of antisemitism and bigotry; Brooke Binlowski is back on Wonkette after years on t.v. with CNN, CBS, writing for The Atlantic, at Snopes and more--debunking FEMA conspiracy theories here with savage wit; finally, award-winning writer Lane Moore's tale with full audio production by Michael Townsend: "I Know This Sounds Corny, but You've Been a Great Roommate to Steal From."
27 AUG 2026 · Famed marine biologist and species regeneration guru Dr. David Vaughan joins us to discuss how coral reefs communicate; what is climate change's evil twin, ocean acidification; how reefs save human lives; and the application of 3d printing and microfragmentation to reef restoration.
10 AUG 2026 · Innovator, inventor, famed marine biologist and author Dr. David Vaughan rejoins us to discuss the thorny debate around climate change and the oceans; coral reefs and tech; how we can all make a difference in our daily lives to help improve the plight of the planet; and some parody and laughs on the topic along with sound featuring everyone from Jane Goodall to Marjorie Taylor Greene.
3 AUG 2026 · Take a deep dive into the science and invention of vital aquatic ecosystems, from salt marshes to endangered coral reefs, with one of the world leaders in devising technology to regenerate sea life, Dr. David Vaughan. Learn of his origins and fascinating life story while learning why urgent action is needed to save the oceans and their habitats.
27 JUL 2026 · In this case, Zero Hour is not Bowie, but Bradbury. Ray Bradbury. A creepy sci-fi horror story set in a safe little American suburb. Stephen King famously stated that "without Ray Bradbury, there is no Stephen King", praising him upon his death by writing, "Ray Bradbury wrote three great novels and three hundred great stories... The sound I hear today is the thunder of a giant's footsteps fading away". This week's production features not only great writing, but acting and production (Julie Nye stars with production by Michael Townsend, directed by Dan Bernard).
6 JUL 2026 · Rough Rider President Teddy Roosevelt is outraged at "coarsened fopoodle, dunderhead coxcomb" Donald J. Trump speaking to his AI doppelganger; while RFK, Jr. says it's official that Tylenol use during pregnancy is a sure-fire path to autism for the baby, despite all facts to the contrary.
29 JUN 2026 · Right-wing racists say the quiet part out loud, from Minnesota rep to Megyn Kelly screeching her Karen Hate; Mahmdani freezes rent for some joyous New Yorkers; Trump tries to put the king-baby kibosh on a shockingly bipartisan housing act (that even Susan Collins supported). Packed with Wonkette wit, snarkiness on the reporting side; with a nice smattering of our original satire.
22 JUN 2026 · The algae-laden Reflecting Pool in Washington, DC takes to the microphone to share his tale of outrage and woe; vintage sci-fi legend Robert Silverberg's "The Happy Unfortunate" wraps up with wild violence and a final decision on the part of our hero, genetically-modified and socially ostracized "Spacer," Rolf Dekker. Then, more from Wonkette.com on Trump's removal from the Kennedy Center. His name, that is...
15 JUN 2026 · In another hilarious take-down by Wonkette.com, we hear Pete Hegseth's first-person bro-diary about his like, totally insane level of fitness and lethality; then an NPR spoof in which the Secretary of War (sic or sick) and El Presidente go to war together; and Part 3 of the wry, Bladerunner-esque sci-fi by Robert Silverberg--published in 1957 but relevant to this day, "The Happy Unfortunate." Plus our original parody commercials tackling heartless corporations, oligarchs and political name-calling.
