Impolite Company host, Chris Cyr, meant to talk about multiple subjects, but got carried away talking about how he'd fix the student loan crisis, while also talking about the idiotic notion of fairness that too many people in this country cling to as the support for every argument they have about why they're better than everyone else. This episode is probably sponsored, by Adderall whether they want to or not. Our theme music is by Lyfestile and Kenautis Smith. Check out their music on Amazon an...

In this episode of Impolite Company, Chris reacts to completely unsurprising new from the political world this week about Joe Biden. Amazon currently has more than 500 books on SLOT MACHINE STRATEGY available for digital download. Too much information about how slot machines work. Americans don't actually value hard work, they value striking it rich. We've failed the experiment of legal pot and it's evident in how we smell. ACTUAL Ketamine, delivered directly to your home. Ketamine!...

The Twenty Four hour culture is going extinct, and nowhere is that more evident than the drive through line of your local Taco Bell. The combination of COVID, the rise of the gig (scam) economy, and the Taco Bell's general terribleness as an employer, highlight the problems every late night business is facing. Chris offers a solution.

As spring springs, host Chris Cyr is surprised to have to be talking about war. There probably won't be a massive nuclear launch. The Sopranos make for good analogies for talking about global politics. Chris proves he owns the CIA Fact Book for the current year. If there was an attack, who'd be left in America? The GOP would ruin the plot of the movie Red Dawn by throwing a parade for the Russian invaders. Josh Hawley is still terrible and out of touch. Fat rich kids are more confident than you'...

We are a culture full of morons who buy exploding Teslas, refuse lifesaving vaccines, think eating a Kit Kat the "wrong way" is a punchable offense, and refuse to zipper merge because someone else might get somewhere 10 seconds before us. Also, Chris bought a new car and reflects on how it is impossible for car dealers to make that transaction simple. It's a lot of exposition disguised as plot on the latest episode of Impolite Company! Our theme song was written and produced by Lyfestile and Ken...

Why are you letting Zuckerberg attack your psyche each morning by pelting you with memories of the past year? Isn't there a rule against a band playing Pearl Jam's "Black" at a paid gig? Should potential editors of magazines really be held liable for things they Tweeted in high school? And can you even comprehend the spiritual and emotional depths of the existential crisis created when America's greatest comfort food can't be trusted?

The pandemic continues, but that doesn't stop a significant part of the internet from being outraged by Phoebe Bridgers' appearance on SNL. Impolite host, Chris Cyr, wonders what those people would do if they saw someone bite the head off of a bat? The cowardice of a former president to not show up for a battle he doesn't even have the chance of losing. Should we have had Super Bowl commercials? And, why do people only pay it forward in the line of Starbucks and not in more useful places? Have f...

On this Impolite Company, in the course of talking about the crazy blonde congresswoman who thinks Pizzagate was real, Chris wonders if there's a way for society to objectively identify people too stupid to be allowed to have opinions, and then allow the state to intercede and make all decisions for that objectively stupid person. You know. Basically fascism. Also, Butch Bowers, attorney at law and muscle car salesman. Our theme song was written and produced by Lyfestile and Kenautis Smith. Chec...

On the agenda are American politics and the failed right wing insurrection. He wonders why conservatives of different stripes will hug each other tightly regardless of how much they disagree, whereas liberals and progressives will re-enact the fight scene from Michal Jackson's "Beat It" video over the slightest difference. Hallmark donated $11,000 to Josh Hawley's election campaign. And, people who started relationships and moved in together before the pandemic hit might be the true heroes of 20...

Chris is alone in his hotel in Vegas. Which he admits, feels weird. He's there competing in the World Series of Comedy (He did not win.) He also just doesn't get Vegas.
