72. Peyton and Mike Try New Positions
On this episode, Peyton and Mike discuss the House's near-miss in preventing a government shutdown, largely due to a few hardline House republicans. In a move that eventually cost him his job, the former Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy, garnered support from House democrats to pass a continuing resolution to temporarily fund the government. But wait! It wouldn't be an episode of Winged Radicals without discussing Trump, and his mountain of legal troubles, none of which can stop him from throwing his hat in the ring to fill the newly vacant Speaker of the House position. Kick back and enjoy the show!

Enjoy the show, and get ready for the shutdown!

70. Gunning for Biden
On this episode, Peyton and Mike cover the recently ordered impeachment inquiry of President Joe Biden by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy before moving on to discuss the 30-day gun ban announced by New Mexico Governor Michelle Grisham in response to an increase in gun violence and drug use in Albuquerque and Bernalillo County. No more breaking bad!
Left-wing, right-wing, we’re all insane, but Peyton and Mike are here to help. They’re bringing you fact based politics, independent perspectives, and insights into these complex issues, and having a good time doing it!
