A Breath of Fresh, Skeptical Air

This delightfully irreverent podcast will make you think and laugh out loud. Not necessarily in that order. Secular humanist who is increasingly depressed about the state of the union? This may not be a cure, but it will definitely ameliorate some of the symptoms. The hosts warm relationship and infectious laughter will help you fall on the laughter side of the 'well, you can laugh about it or cry about it' equation that describes both American and international news today.

I'm burying this part of the review at the bottom because so very many people are scared of the 8 F word today (f e m i n i s m), but these guys are firm advocates of equal rights and protection for women. They (*gasp*)advocate the view that women, much like men, are fully actualized beings with every bit as much worth and dignity as our more urinal-friendly counterparts. It is difficult to overstate how critical men like this are to this struggle. So, thanks Tom and Cecil! For the support and the much-needed laughter.

PS: Yes, they swear a lot. I personally adore that. Perhaps it's extra-funny when you live in Utah and have heard 'jimminy freaking christmas' used as a swearword without the slightest trace of irony.
