Weekly Skews, hosted by Trae Crowder and Mark Agee, is a new comedy podcast that offers a redneck and working class perspective from the Left on the week's news, politics, and culture.
Tonight Smart Mark returns and, after a check-in on the continuing idiocy that is the House GOP’s search for a Speaker, as well as some other fun tidbits, we then take a look at the few elections happening this November, e.g. the KY gubernatorial race, the Ohio abortion measure, etc., and how the outcomes thereof could shape the larger elections in 2024.

Tonight Trae is joined by first time guest host Travis Irvine (Smart Mark will return next week) to discuss the ongoing laughable incompetence of the House GOP as it continues to flail in its attempts to name a new Speaker. Among other things. Join us. Support the show

Tonight: Turns out Democrats do crime too! Namely New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez, who it turns out is super into taking bribes and the like.

With a proxy war in Ukraine, a cold war in China, a covid spike, a jump in childhood poverty, and 12 days until a government shutdown… what’s everyone in Congress up to? Well, giving public hand jobs and freaking out about Fetterman’s shorts, for starters. Also: the UAW strike and a Texas impeachment update. Join us. Support the show
The GOP in the House and in the state of Wisconsin have impeachment in mind, for Joe Biden and Janet Protasiewicz (state Supreme Court), respectively. That neither has done anything remotely impeachable is, of course, immaterial. Join us. Support the show
Happy belated Labor Day, y’all, and on tonight’s Skews we’re keeping with the spirit of the holiday as we discuss the ongoing Summer of the Strike, namely a forthcoming action from United Auto Workers as they prepare to take it to Detroit’s Big 3. Join us. Support the show

Welp, we were gonna talk about last week’s bizarre congressional hearings about aliens (!!), but then Trump got indicted for the eleventy-third time. So now perhaps 12 lucky D.C. jurors will get to answer the question “Should America still be?” Trae’s on the road, so tonight Corey’s filling in and Mark’s hosting. (Hopefully we’ll still have time to talk about aliens.) Join us. Support the show

Tonight we welcome Corey Ryan Forrester back to the show, filling in for Smart Mark, and we'll be diving into the well of insanity that is the new Giuliani lawsuit, Miller Lite's cancellation, DeSantis's attempts at human emotion, and more. Support the show

Tonight we touch on the school shooting in Trae’s screwed up state of Tennessee, which seems to be trying to engineer more of them. Then we’ll attempt to lighten the mood with some dummies before talking about the characters and goons involved in the impending Wisconsin Supreme Court election, the most important election no one knows about. Support the show
Why are people saying Trump is about to be arrested? (He said it.) But is he not lying for once? We break down all the investigations, including a new sixth one that just dropped, and whether it’ll really be a 17-year-old affair with a porn star that ends our long national nightmare. (It won’t.) All that and plenty more, so join us. Support the show
