Affordable housing has basically become non-existent in America, and has indeed become an issue world-wide ( see Spain ). How can it be fixed? Which of these so-called "humanitarian" billionaires is going to do something truly good and right for us proles who slaved to help make them rich? Yeah, right! They're too busy building rockets and convincing morons that they are geniuses to do anything truly worthwhile with their influence and money. Welcome to Earth. "...and we wonder why the aliens do...

Welcome to Scatterbrain Podcast Episode 165! This week, we are joined by our friend Marianne from Death is Everything Podcast to talk about amusement park disasters: the strange, the horrible, the ugly. Most people assume they are relatively safe when riding a roller coaster or other attraction. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Though unfortunate, some amusement park disasters are due to negligence but some are due to, well...idiocy. Survival of the fittest and all that jazz. Join us ...

Our hearts are broken to just learn of the tragic passing of Dennis W. Mallen, Jr. in a car accident on June 10th, 2023, only six days after this interview was recorded.

Welcome to Scatterbrain Podcast Episode 162! This week, we are joined by Deb and Kris from Today We Laughed and Learned Podcast for a great discussion on standards of beauty and beauty practices around the world.

Welcome to our 4th installment of "The Power of Metal Compels You!" Ian blathered incessantly, as usual, and both he and Dan went on and on about the Death Angel/Kreator/Sepultura concert.

We also review the new EP by Carolina thrashers All Hell, "All Hail the Night". Now with listeners in 69 countries! No kidding! Thanks for listening, humans. ...

Welcome to Scatterbrain Podcast's tenth installment of our Banter Series. This episode almost could have been titled, "Pending Peer Review: Part 2". But, being just banter, it's our chance to have even less direction and just talk about whatever we want to. For instance, what does Wyoming and the UAP phenomenon have in common? We don't know either. This week we also review the new EP from Finnish band Crawlspace titled, " Relapse In Judgement". Thanks for listening Chuck, Noah, Bob, Heather, Jim...
