COVID has shut down a ton of business worldwide. Because of this it has been extremely difficult to procure certain products that businesses in the USA need. 

In comes The Product Plug and Alex Elias! Alex works over the top of a team of people at The Product Plug to get PPE's and other COVID related things to the US market so the people can protect themselves. Alex discusses his business and the relationship with China since Trump imposed Tariffs and other financial penalties for businesses in China to operate with the USA.

This leads into a discussion about Trump and the current state of the world. How he is being divisive on purpose to create problems for the people of the USA rather than leading them and sitting down with them to discuss their issues and working on a solution.

Alex decides story time is needed to expound on a point that Mark brings up in the show about stereotypes. Alex discusses a project where stereotypes were used to warn someone of bad things...was the warning needed or not? Listen and find out.

Fianlly Mark and Alex discuss these confederate monuments and the way republicans and conservative fawn over them for the weirdest reasons....why would you want your Heritage to be "We are the best LOSERS of a WAR...Second Place is our thing!"

All this and much much more on this episode of The Q!

Like a cannonball hitting you square in the jugular, here comes another episode of the Q. 

Producer Bobby, Gary Weed and Matt Krueger are here to cheer all of you up with your problems of today. Short of reading stories from facebook and being pretty, Mark Bland and the Q aim to make you think and realize the world is a scary place at times. 

First up...Bobby is losing weight and we realize Bobby got help from COVID without even realizing it. Matt then updates all of us on the new Batman stuff with Michael Keaton and the guys discuss how all this is being formulated.

This Leads to Tweet reading time. Mark and the round table of guest are gonna take on Trump Tweets. On the show before, Mark Read some Trump tweets and made comments. People liked it, so Mark is doing it on a larger scale with more opinions. Mark sifts through Trumps latest tweets of anger and hope, to discuss their thoughts on what he is saying. From there the guys discuss press briefings, war options, Covid response and almost everything Trump is touching. Really worth a listen with multiple ideologies and opinions being expressed...even Conservatives are defended!

This leads to a discussion. The discussion hits a like a cannonball because its about Trumps true purpose for posting the things he posts. Mark and Matt discuss the need for him to act the way he does and it opens a whole can of worms regarding Mark and Matt's relationship and how Matt handles it. Mark explains that conservatives seem to share a trait and it rears it head quite often online...find out what it is!

Finally the guys discuss the monuments and them being taken down, defunding of police and everything in between. Plus some questions from the listeners. A show for the ages!

EJ Carter is a beast. This man has taken the hip hop scene by storm and his song Propane has propelled him to Regional and National Success working with other hip hop legends and even remixing Propane with Lil Flip for good measure.

EJ joins Jonathan May and Mark Bland to discuss the going on's in the world and how we are viewing history right now. 

First up the guys discuss EJ and his early influences as well as when he started writing and performing hip hop. This leads into a serious discussion about comic books and super heroes. All good and fun until the serious happens....

So 2 St. Louis Lawyers decided to take the law into their own hands and fend off a BLM protest walking past their house. They did this with a machine gun and wife visibly upset pointing a hand gun at people. The guys discuss the ramifications and all the thoughts surrounding BLM, the lawyers and even public opinions. Worth the listen alone.

Finally Mark hits EJ with the Hot Seat where they discuss how to handle and alien invasion of Earth and much much more! 

Such a fun guest for the show and we look forward to hearing EJ on the show more in the future!
