Welcome back! Sorry for the down time, but to catch up, we'll be putting out a couple rapid fire episodes, so stay on your toes!

This week, the boys in the studio return for love of the game and avoid celebrating another episode milestone instead focusing on a few major stories that have gripped the headlines.

First we do a little military talk, starting with the USS Lincoln finally making it to a port after 280 days at sea. We talk about the conditions onboard and Trump's fake AI images to try and refute the suffering he's caused our troops.

Then we get into the story of John Klinner, an airman killed in Iran whose wife and young children were denied the benefits he earned as Trump and Hesgeth attempt to hide behind a technicality.

After that, we spend a good chunk of time talking about the cast of the upcoming 2028 X Men movie, along with the history of X Men movies and the actors portraying our favorite mutants.

Finally, we spend the majority of the episode discussing the Lindsay Clancy case and newly reached verdict, and the possibility that the support she received was actually an intentional astro-turfed campaign by right wingers desperate to get this country talking about anything besides Trump's many, many, MANY failures.

Thanks for tuning in week after week and supporting truly independent media! As always WokeCast is ad free and sponsor free! An hour of uninterrupted discourse and how politics seeps its way into every aspect of life. We can't run from it, so the only option is to fight back!
