The Three Whisky Happy Hour: Shots Fired—Winning Here, Losing There
This week we raise the Jolly Roger against an imitator podcast that is intruding on the 3WHH’s exclusive right of commentary on all things McDonald’s, but then we move on to our own balance sheet about the Iran War (verdict—we’re winning big, and Trump is killing it), and the saga of the SAVE Act in the Senate, where opinion divides more sharply among the three of us.
Here we land the blame squarely on GOP Senate leader John Thune, and did you know that “thune” is a slang French expression for for money, though it is often used with a modifier to indicate the lack thereof, like “sans thune.” Seems fitting for a GOP Senate that can’t figure out how to fight.
The exit music this week is an obscure callback. . . I doubt one person in 1,000 will get it.
