Well we have made it. After multiple shows and 64 songs going head to head, we are down to the final 4 songs of the tournament! And we have Justin Deming on the show too! What a treat...

First up, Mark and Justin discuss the horrible actions of Anthony Castaldi and Shaft regarding the wrestling match for the MMWA Commissionership! The match was living up to the hype it created and Mark was in full control ready to level Shaft with a Chair! When out of the blue the Brotherhood sends one of their men down to knock Mark out and then the promoter/owner of MMWA comes down to fast count Mark and give the win to Shaft! How! Only the Referee is sanctioned by the state to award victories. The men discuss! 

Next up, legedary STL broadcaster Don Marsh joins the show to discuss his brand new book, The Fabulist. Don has been a broadcaster for over 40 years in the St. Louis area covering some of the greatest moments in human history! But after leaving the broadcast booth in 2019, he turned his focus to being an author and writing! Don joins Mark and Justin to discuss his illustrious career and to chop it up about the current state of media in regards to politics in 2023! 

Finally we are set in the finals for the tournament of pop culture. One hit wonders have been plaguing the show for weeks on end, but we are finally down to our last 4. Who will become the victor and claim the prize as the best overall one hit wonder over the many decades covered. From the 1960's till 2023, multiple songs from the Archies, to Rockwell, to Frankie Goes to Hollywood have been fighting tooth and nail. But it seems the 1990's and 80's brought the heat when it came to the best. Find out who reaigns supreme by tuning in and listening! 

Feb 11, 2023

The 2023 State of the Union address happened and it didn't come without fireworks. As expected, and as Mark alluded to on social media all week, the republicans just couldn't help themselves. They made a fool of Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy and that was after he pleaded for them to act with decorum. It really is becoming parliament, so we on the show don't know why they just don't change their parties to the Tory's and Whigs and change congress to Parliament now. But Joe Biden was able to get through and even create a moment of unity...the gentlemen discuss.

Also the 2023 Grammy's happened and Mark was not thrilled with the layout of the show. Not the show itself but the layout for sure. Mark and Jason welcome Canadian Music Critic Mitch Lafon to the show. Mitch jumps in with over 30 years of music background to discuss the Sam Smith situation, Beyonce breaking records, the 50th Anniv. Hip hop performance and everything! Plus being a critic usually runs down more than one path and TV/Film is also on the table as Mitch tells us the show he wants everyone to pick up and watch! 

Finally it is the final round of the Tournament of Pop culture: One hit Wonders! We have the last 16 songs vying for a spot in the championship. With strong showings over the past few weeks from disco and 80's mainstays, this week adds some 2000's one hit wonders as well as brings us one of Jason hopefuls! So has your song finally made it, did it get ignored...what would you have changed or put somewhere else? All this and much more gets discussed and broken down on this episode of the show! 

Feb 4, 2023

Krueger is back on this amazing edition of the QNow joined by the host Mark Bland and Jason Kull! 

First up is the story of Tyre Nichols and the horrendous beating death he incurred at the hands of multiple police officers in memphis Tennessee. The guys never had a chance to discuss this one but the video was too incriminating to pass up. The officers have been let go and they are in the middle of an investigation and probable lawsuit which is forthcoming. But the audacity to lie on a police report and have a higher up sign off on it is indicative of a worse issue that could happen to any citizen. The gentlemen discuss this incident. 

It's then time for the 3rd round of the one hit wonders Tournament of pop culture. The guys break down another set of songs until we are down to the final 4 (which is happening in a couple episodes!...pending anything stoping us). Did your favorite song make the list? Did the guys vote properly for who you think should move on and who gets booted? Find out! 

And finally the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame released their list of potential nominees and there a lot of heavy hitters on this list.  Cyndi Lauper to the White Stripes, the list has some pretty certain winners in the bunch. Mark, Jay and Matt break down the list and discuss who is deserving and who is not. 

Jan 28, 2023

Dr. Dallas Stevens is a doctor of decadence and beating people up. As one half of the Junkies for Fame in MMWA, Stevens and his partner JSO are the current MMWA Heavyweight Tag Champs! Where JSO has been on the show multiple times, Stevens has yet to grace Mark and Jason Kull with his presence. He wanted to make sure the show lived up to his quality of standards before becoming involved.  But here we are and the Junkies for Fame are the guests on this episode of The Qnow.

Also, Mark and Jason decide to talk about REC centers and their value in society in 2023. If you have been to one recently you know they are built to the gills with gyms, ice rinks, pools, parks surrounding and a ton of other things. All this comes with a price for upkeep and more...so Mark and Jason discuss their pricing and need in the 2020's.

Also it seems Kevin McCarthy is really butt hurt about people have positions on committees in the new congress after they impeached Trump YEARS AGO. But that petty republican STL styled hate is just fuming in the barely speaker of the house. So he is taking people like Adam Schiff and Ihan Omar off their duties because he is mad. Little do they pay attention to the optics. 

Finally the Junkies for Fame and Dr. Dallas specific are new to the QNow. So Dallas must enter and answer on the Hotseat! Always a fun few questions to help us get to know the former firefighter and current tag team champion! 

Jan 21, 2023

It's 2023 and this year is already bringing fist fights and problems for the host of the Q, but sometimes in moments of pity, great things happen too! 

Justin Deming has been handling life in the Northeast for a few years now and with some family things to handle, he makes a trip back to the midwest and his home town when he gets a chance. Out the Blue Justin decided to show up for the Q and we couldn't be happier to welcome him back for the show. 

First up it seems the crazy over the top aspect of republicans is starting to become more noticeable. In Missouri they made sure that the female also wore suit jackets like the MEN, because they need their women to represent being more manly in the state government. Well it's not only here, but  in Florida Ron Desantis is creating all kinds of issues with CRT and Trans discussions and all of it...why? Well we really don't know but the men discuss these and a few other states attacking really marginal and weird things. 

Next up is the 2nd round of the TOPC: Best One Hit Wonder. In the last round many great candidates put their name in the ring but only one can out on top. This time around Just A Friend, Cotton Eye Joe and few others throw their name in the ring to find out what is the best one hit wonder according to the QNow and if you don't like what you see, you can play along at home. 

And finally Mark once again had issues at MMWA but they decided to offer Mark a opportunity he could not pass up. Commissionership of the MMWA. Anthony Castaldi the head of the organization challeneged Mark to take on Shaft for control of the right hand of power. With it Mark and the Kings of Revolution can position themselves better for control and moves within the organization. So everything seems to be on the line for their upcoming Feb 11th match. But Mark and the boys discuss all of it! 

Jan 12, 2023

Well well well, the new year has come and gone and we are into the new year solid at this point. A few weeks have passed and special guest comes out the woodwork to find out how we have been on the show, and a welcome surprise it is. Matt Krueger comes out of slumber and decides that he would like to catch up with us for the first time since the big 500th episode. So we glady welcome him back into the fold and onto the show as our guest. Jason Kull returns to hang out and discuss some Santos and a tournament of pop culture we are working on for the future. 

First up, Mark needs to discuss some issues he is having at MMWA wrestling regarding his position as the Asst. Commissioner and some stuff a group named the Brotherhood has been doing since he started. Mark feels wronged because he saw his bosses unhappy about the results of title matches and it was always the brotherhood ganging up on people. Now Mark is in athe middle of a funk because hie attempt to even the score and make owner Anthony Castaldi happy backfired a bit...and because of the Commissioner over the top of Mark...Shaft. The guys discuss.

It took 40000 (15....lol) votes for Kevin McCarthy to become the speaker of the house. But after caving to the complainers that are the Trump holdouts and people against Trumps influence in the Republican party, McCarthy can finally try and start to do a bunch of worthless investigations into "liberal/democratic" things. Most importantlythe FBI and who they are looking at and what they know about the republicans with regards to Jan 6th and the illegal things they asked for pardons on. It's not looking good for republicans. 

And in the end, Mark and Jason decide to do a Tournament of Pop Culture focused on one hit wonders, but there are so many they can do a 5 part episode breaking them all down to find the best #1 One Hit Wonder of all time. So Round one starts on this show today! All this and much more on this episode of The Q! 

Dec 31, 2022

On this new years eve 2022, we save the best for last.  Ed Reggi, an accomplished actor and improvist, joins the Q to discuss what he has been doing these last few years since we seen him, Covid and more Covid and politics has been ravaging the world and Ed has been handling his business the way he sees fit.  So it is time to catch up with the snomageddon viral star! 

First up, Ed and his significant other purchased a house a few years back with some land and Ed has been fixing it up ever since. The guys get into talking about the housing structures in the old days of St. Louis looked, and how they try to emulate it with a more modern feel. This leads to Mark discussing his own home and the layout and how it can be bothersome at times. 

Next, as the year closes, a lot of things happened in the news politically and otherwise. Mark and Ed tackle the news stories. First the Queen of England passes away and the two reminisce about their thoughts and nostalgia of watching here as they grew up and what she meant to our world. On top of that Russia invades Ukraine and the Jan 6th committee did their thing and people are paying the price now.  All this and much more is discussed on this year in review! 

Finally, Mark decides to field a few questions with Ed Reggi, go as far as to invite Ed's husband to come on the show in the future and discuss their relationship and life together. Mark has interviewed Ed a few times, but never talked with his husband about the real Ed Reggi...find out if Ed is willing to make this happen or if he put the kobash on it real quick. 

Dec 24, 2022

Well well well we are here and it is christmas time in the city of St. Louis, Mo. Santa Clause has his list and is checking it twice. Now it's time for him to make a call to the Q with Mark Bland and Jason Kull so he can let them in on what it is like to be Santa Clause in 2022! 

Also, The January 6th committee has released it's recommendations for the Insurrectionists like Donald Trump and these are not charges that should be ignored at all! Trump, Meadows and others purposely decided to incite insurrection and lie about everything. The committee figured this all out and recommended charges from the DOJ. The guys discuss! 

Variety put out it's cool list of the 100 best movies and there are some surprises compared to past lists. That is what makes this list that good. They take a lot of things into account including influence on others and popularity. You might be surprised at their Top 20 as Mark and Jason break it down. 

Finally you can't go without hearing from Adam Sandler and his famous Chanukah Song! Mark and jason then discuss some of the worst gifts others got for xmas and how it affected them. All this and much more on this episode of The Q! Merry Christmas to you and your families from the Q! 

Dec 17, 2022

Welp it seems Mark posted something to social media and it caught him some flack. But it's not that national kinda flack that typically is associated with a social media post...it's more localized and people calling offline to challenge what the post said. 

On this Episode of The Q, Alex Elias joins Mark and Jason Kull to discuss Mark's recent post where he claimed in his prime athleticness, Mark said he was as good as any other professional athlete  and just as athletic. Now Mark didn't say he was a professional football player and could beat Micah Parsons in football today....BUT... back in his prime, with all things working properly, he was as athletically gifted as a Micah Parsons or other professional athletes. Alex vehemently disagrees with this and argues that Mark could never have been the same caliber as a All Pro Football player....But then Mark starts breaking down his size, his sport, what they wear versus a heavily padded football player....Does Mark change the mind of Alex, listen and find out! 

Then Mark and the guys discuss the Brittney Griner prisoner swap where Donald Trump came out and said he could have done the prisoner swap for Paul whelan back in his presidency, but he decided not to do it. Just like the wall he didn't build and the Covid he didn't stop. The gentleman discuss the upcoming announcement of his Trump NFT cards, Viktor Bout (the other half of the prisoner swap) and explain how the negotiations between the biden Whitehouse and Putin went regarding the Prisoner Swap. 

Finally Mark and Jay wants to really get to know Alex a lot better and starts to ask some difficult questions of Alex. This comes on the heels of a personal friend that is dying that Mark had a chance to talk with and it made him emotional and want to find out more about his personal friends. Alex, Jay and Mark discuss the questions as they pertain to their lives in 2022. 

All this and much more on the new Q! 

Dec 10, 2022

Well Marcus Boston is back on the show to help us close out the Best Action Movie since 1980. The guys are down to four competitors for the best movie. Lethal Weapon (80s), Terminator 2 (90s), Inglorious Basterds (2000s), Winter Soldier (2010's). Who will reign supreme in this final discussion, we are going to find out but first!

A local STL broadcaster got caught with a third DWI. This bothers Mark because of the number of DWI's that this gentleman got. They discuss this and the attacks that Mark endured for stating what everyone else was already saying. 

It was a great week for moderates and democrats in the USA. Georgia had their runoff election between Warnock and Herschel Walker. Walker entered the situation talking about werewolves and Vampires and election fraud and all of it...BUT IN THE END...the most mind numbing thing happened after the republicans lost the election. They blamed it on something they did and pretended to be confused by their own actions....The gents discuss all of this.

Finally Marcus explains that he is not a fan of Christmas, but he also shares it with a birthday. So based of this, Mark and Jason press down to find out some info regarding the uniqueness of having a birthday right next to christmas. Plus Marcus explains that his Mom had a unique way of delving out presents for both the birthday and christmas, which just peaks more interest and brings up more questions. 

Dec 3, 2022

It's been a a grind but we are finally at the final brakcet of the Tournament of Pop Culture: Best action movies since the 1980's. On today's show is the final 2010's bracket and it is a doozy! And Marcus Boston, joins Mark and Jason Kull to break down all of it and get a final winner! 

First up Marcus is back and RACE is all over the news and Kanye is going crazy helping right wing nazi sympathizers get more well known and all of it. Maybe Marcus can make some sense out of all of this. But to get there, we discuss colonization, the former queen of england and how things are lookes from perspective and time. The USA is a very shallow existence with 300+ years under it's belt. But other parts of the world are thousands of years older and have writen history from 3000-4000 years ago. Places in the middle east and around the birthplace of civilization. Marcus, Mark and Jason break this down and discuss Race in the US versus the view of Racism in the world. 

Then Marcus lets out once again that he is choosing not to go to his 20 yr High School Reunion. This gets Mark and Jason discussing the time Mark went to his 20 yr reunion and it was in Ferguson the night of the Mike Brown situation. Mark relays the thoughts and feelings of that and how he was pointed out as one of "those people right there" and how he needed to "they all need to die". It was a wild reunion story that has been brought up before, but this leads to Marks major discussion on Elon Musk and the craziness that has hampered this world we live in since Covid in 2020. Elon seems to have gone off the rails and the men discuss! 

Finally, It's time for the TOPC: Best Action movies since 1980 and in this final round, we are focused on the Movies of the 2010's. And Action movies to boot. Which Mission Impossible made the list? Does Django Unchained have an unfair advantage? What movies were on the list that you wanted but they didn't make it. Well to find out you have to tune in and let the gents break down the movies and the bracket for you! 

Nov 26, 2022

The tough guys are back and ready for this first week of the holiday season! 

First things first...JSO is back and ready to talk with Mark and his Number 1 enemy, Jason Kull. JSO starts off on the right foot explaining his most recent championship grab at MMWA wrestling in St. Louis. Him and tag partner are now the Heavyweight Tag Champions and the EGO has blown up to all time highs. 

This leads to a discussion about everyone's favorite topic, Donald Trump and this time his former ATTY. General Bill Barr who is now an anti Trump conservative. But the guys are confused at how you can sit there today with this disdain for Trumps moves, while you ignored and turned the other cheek to everything when you could have easily put an end to Jan 6th and all of it. 

Next up, JSO decided to bring his wife to the studio and the rule in Radio is simple, do not come in the studio if you are unwilling to jump on the mic. Cause that is a norm in the business. Well Lindsey O'Connor joins Mark and Jason to discuss what the courting for JSO was and the type of game he spit to get her interested in him. This leads to other questions later on in the Hot Seat that JSO has to defend! 

Finally we are in the 2000's region of the best action movies since 1980 (barstool bracket). We bring in JSO to discuss this decade and help us whittle it down to Kill Bill or Gladiator or 14 other options that compile to give you a great list of movies in the action category between 2000-2009. So join us as we break it all down on this episode of The Q! 

Nov 19, 2022

On this episode of the Q, Mark Bland is joined by John Scheper and Jason Kull.

First up, Scheper calls in to discuss the ramifications of the Mid-Term Elections and what went wrong for the republicans. Was it the bad candidates? Was it the amount of money spent? Or is it something Mark brings up? All this gets hashed out and the gents discuss Trump running again in 2024!

Next its been a week for everyone watching the Herschel Walker saga. But don't fret Mike Pence is right there to also be involved in the game to. Plus some of Trump announcement and things he is going to work on. Regardless, all these sound bites happened in the past week and Mark and Jason discuss what these people are saying to America right now! Like Herschel Walker who's obviously a vampire buit now wants to be a Werewolf. Why? Because Werewolves can kill Vampires! 

Finally, it's the 1990's region of the best Action movie since 1980.  The first round was amazing and this round has some heavy hitters like The Matrix, True Lies and the Fugitive. Did the movie you want make the cut? Maybe or maybe not...but when this is done we are half way through these decades and have two final four contenders! 

Nov 12, 2022

On this episode of the Q, Marcus boston once again jumps into the guest seat to discuss his upcoming event where he is auctioned off for Charity. 

The soulardians been rocking with Mark Bland for a few years, and now there is one more reason to love them...Marcus the host is being auctioned off to the lovely ladies of STL. But let us not forget....

2022 Midterm Electiosn happened this past week and it was not the RED WAVE that the republicans been stating for months and months leading into the election. Instead what people got was what Mark the host said would happen...a very close election and the Democrats eeking it out. Well the eek out part is still left to be determined because of Herschel Walker and Warnock in Georgia, but the even stevens seems to be in the books. What was supposed to be a red wave turned into a blue equalizer for Mid Terms. Mark Bland is joined by Jason Kull along with Marcus to discuss. 

Mark been noticing the social media posts for Marcus historically and now are not matching up the normal way. Mark feels there is something more to this need for Marcus to play up the single life card. Deep inside Marcus want's love and Mark has some important questions that the ladies of the Purple Gala will be needing to hear to make sure they getting the right man of their dreams...or is Marcus a tease and single man for life. We discuss and find out. 

Finally, an impromptu tournament of pop culture shows up out the blue for Q. Mark was looking around and ran into a multi-section TOPC for best Action movie since 1980. Now Mark did not produce this one, so it's not his choices for the competition. But is the movie you thought would be there, even on the list of movies. It's broken down by1980's, 90's, 2000's, 2010's. Four sections with a grand finale for the four surviving movies. Who wins and loses. Join us to find out! 

Nov 5, 2022

Ahh we made it to the midway point of life. The 2022 midterms are here everyone and Mark Bland is joined by a bevy of gentlemen to discuss all the upcoming fun we will have this week! 

First up Mark sits down and talks with Mike Eise and Jonathan May about the way the government and elections in the USA are setup. Eise believes this is all contrived and ptu together by the Media and the powers that be to keep the country separated on purpose. Mark and Jonathan seem to think that peope naturally gravitate the way they want and that creates the separation just like in the animal kingdom. Can we get these guy to agree?

Next up, KSDK channel 5  in St. Louis (the NBC affiliate ksdk.com) lends their political coordinator to the Q for a interview. Mark Maxwell joins the show to discuss how this election will proceed forward after the 2020 election denying. Mark and the boys discuss the potential for republicans to use their congressional advantage to bring libs to their knees as well as what are the topics and ballot options people are talking about going into this Mid-term. 

Finally Mark and Jonathan bid adieu to Mike Eise and continue to break down the ballot initivatives for Missouri in the 2022 election and this leads to some movie talk. Mark and Jonathan both saw the movie Barbarian and had differing opinions on the outcome of the movie and who the focus should be on. Be careful, they do discuss some "spoiler" styled stuff. And then Dr. Love is back in the house as the two discuss a guy and his unwilling dating partner! 

All this and more on this episode of the Q! 

Oct 29, 2022

For the first time in a few years (cause of COVID) we are putting out a Halloween Spooktacular! Drew Pinson and Jason Kull join us to jump in on the special edition of the show! 

First up, there was a school shooting in the St. Louis Area this past week and the gunman left a manifesto. But within that manifesto was something interesting that seems to be a theme popping up. Mark, Jason and Drew discuss the shooting as well as this theme and new way to attack the national issue going forward. 

Next up, Biden is pushing to get rid of bad banking, credit and loan fees. Airline pork fat fee's and things of that nature. But this is a problem that Barack Obama already tackled in 2009...so why is it back on the table in 2022...well conservatives ruined the world for 4 years and now we are here...the guys discuss.

First up it is Homecoming for Mizzou Football and John Scheper calls in from the game to talk with the boys. Off the top, there have been a few people getting run over in football games in the news, and this past week was no different for the Alabama/Tennessee game the other day. With a lady running onto the field, she was taken down by a Alabama football player and now everyone is all Devante Adams about the situation...but who was in the wrong, the guys discuss.

So many options so few minutes to spare. 

Oct 8, 2022

It's Halloween time and on the Q we live for the scary time of the year. Sure we love the other times, but something draws us to this time of year with the leaves changing and the air getting cooler. 

So on this episode, Jonathan May and Jason Kull join Mark Bland to focus on a few things and give their thoughts.  Up first is Herschel Walker and Kanye west and this cache of new fangled republicans that just choose to be wild, show everyone their worst side and then expect everyone to be cool with it. Antonoi Brown from football (also) gets brought up as well as the hijinks of Rand Paul. 

Next Jonathan May and the guys get into talking about movies and music and everything. Then Mark asks Joanthan if he could remake a movie with an all Black cast, what movie would he do and who would be cast. This leads to Jonathan claiming he would put out some movies called "Blacked" where he directed them and the casts were all black, but super well known movies like Forrest Gump. 

Finally since we are talking Halloween, Mark decides it's been a while since they done a tournament of pop culture on the Q and he wants to do the 2022 Halloween Candy competition. So saddle in and find out if your favorite candy to eat made the cut, and how deep it went into the competition. 

 

Oct 3, 2022

On this weeks episode of the Q, Drew Pinson and Jason Kull are back to discuss life and politics with Mark Bland our host. 

First up, Mark has some thoughts on a local newspaper and the relationship he has had with them in the past. They are putting out the same material today as they were 20 years ago, but they are not giving focus to those that truly impact and influence out the market. They hang their head on "movie stars" who got lucky and "music artist" that never give back. Mark and the guys discuss these opinions.


Next up, as we are finally breaching that normalcy that is life, and with people coming back to concerts and events...Mark is wondering who fell of and who is still bringing it. This turns into a referendum on Bruno Mars and where he stands in the anals of music history. Is he The Weeknd and Michael level, or does he run more on Tier 2 or 3 when it comes to power and success within that world. Mark and the boys go back and forth wondering who the larget and most successful tours in music history are and who are the most influential of all time. A great discussion on the music business and some edgy comments that will catch people off guard. 

finally, Mark and the guys decide to take on some unpopular opinions and conspiracy. Mark asked the gentlement to bring in their favorite conspiracy theory to discuss and this get's into some interesting things. Was JFK just randomly shot by Lee Harvey? Do lizard people exist and run our government....tune in and find out ho weird it can be in the USA!

Sep 24, 2022

Dirty of the XFL/ST....wait a second...nope! You can't say that anymore. Jason Spurgeon of the The XFans show which discusses the XFL and their league is joining us on this episode to discuss a few things that we have on the Table.

First up Dirty drops the bomb that they are no longer the XFLSTL talk show anymore. They are now the Xfans show and the XFL called him directly to ask him to change the name of his program. And he and his co-host did do that. So from here on out, they are the Xfans!

Next up Trump has been sued again. This time Letitia James of the SDNY has sued trump and his children for the fraud they committed with his charities and vouching from pricing on his properties that were lets say less than valuable as stated. So once again Trump in hot water for literally everything he ever does, which is always pretty shztty. 

Then the guys discuss a local issue that happened with their sister radio station and a local news anchor. This then leads to disussions on Valdamir Putin and his decision to call up draftee's for his Ukranian war. Only problem is that if you are forcing your citizens to fight and fill in the gaps, you aren't as big and tough as you have pretended. It's all coming undone and the guys are here to let you know! 

Finally what starts as some opinions that are not as popular as people think, Mark and the boys start discussing the Homerun chase going on in the MLB. At one time we had Bonds breaking records, but those days are tarnished...but should they be. Mark brings up the need for history to show that McGwire and them weren't using banned substances in the late 90's when they hit for those records. So Judge in NY might get there/did get there but he still has others to catch. 

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

Drew Pinson and Jason Kull join Mark Bland on this episode where the gentlemen decide to remember the Queen of England who just died in the past week. After decades of reign, the most recognizable person in a Monarchy has passed to the other side. It's such a big deal that they released a press release that states Trump is not invited to the funeral at all. Crazy to think....

Also, Mark is becoming really beaten down about how every time something happens in the music or movie business, it immediately is brought down a notch or two by people being too woke. The latest craziness is people using AI to make the trailer for Disney's new Little Mermaid with a white girl instead of a black lead. Mark thinks this is way way over the top, but also questions why there is a need to constantly play with things on purpose to create division. 

Mark and the guys talk about homophobia, racism and many other issues that pop up quite often even though in practice there really isn't much that "happens" regarding those topics. And Mark believes those topics are only a focus for a launching point. Everyone doesn't need to complain and whine about everything all the time. Not every Joke is an attack on a whole culture. Some things are just funny in thought and the moment. The world is insensitive and now people are being too sensitive to everything all the time. Now Trump threatening people and the libs are all for it...but it's sensitivity again! 

The gentle touch on this topic multiple times in the show.

Finally Mark has Drew and Jason faceoff in a game of Trivia to see who is the trivia master of the Q. Who won? Who knew more? Which person seemed to guess too much? All this and more will be answered in this weeks finale!

MMWA has a Sept. 10th event coming up and they sent over their guy, the South Broadway Savior....JSO... to be our guest on this new episode.

First up Mark wants to find out about the wrestler and his background. Hailing from STL, Mark and his co-host Jason Kull find out that there is a former Junior Blues Player who had a shot at a major university that historical in our great country and it ain't Harvard. This leads to convos about Pro-Wrestling and the business and JSO's eventual rise to popularity.

It's not been a good week for Trump. It seems the documents he took were so secret even the FBI had to get clearance to view them for investigating. Which really just whittled the culprits down to Trump and Pence technically. And since the world knows Pence was attacked on Jan 6th, it doesn't seem to point to anyone other than Don. But Mark tries to put the way we look this and other things in perspective throughtout this show. 

Finally Mark and the boys discuss AI and how it won a competition for digital art at the Colorado State Fair and how close we are getting to ourselves eradicating ourselves. And then it's time for the one and only JSO to jump on the hotseat and answer some random questions to make himself feel important and to help us learn of the AVATAR OF EXCELLENCE and who he is!

Donald Trump is in serious hot water. He took stuff he shouldn't have and now it comes out that he took A LOT. 

On this episode of the show, Mike Eise joins Mark to discuss the brand new student debt relief bill that has everyone talking. The Biden admin has realized keeping the promises seems to help them get notice and keep them in the good graces. The dems have put forth a Debt relief bill for college students, effectively wiping $10,000 in debt off their books. Mark and Mike rip into this amazing development.

Donald Trump seems to have taken 700+ documents including top secret documents from his time in the White house. As Mark explains, everyone thought it was a couple things he shouldn't have when the story broke. Now we realize he was harboring tons of info to selll to terrorists and bad people against the USA. This is a former President and in centuries past...Aaron burr would have already taken out this treasonous person. The guys discuss.

Finally We discuss some of the background in the world of Poker for our friend Mike eise. He answers some questions that Mark has been wondering for a while. All this and much more on this episode of the Q!

Mark Bland and Drew Pinson attack the stories of the week.

First up is Liz cheney and her need to win her primary in Wyoming. Now Wyoming believes anything Donald Trump says. There is no real verification for anything the choose to do and they chose to fire Liz Cheney. So now they are the party of criminals and losers. Mark and Drew discuss how this is different than any other year in the history of ever.

Second, the guys focus on what was being traded and bandied about by Trump during his raid in the past few weeks. It's said that ole Donnie had classified secret nuclear documents he took from the archives...and they FOUND those specific documents. Not easy to get ones either. So this was a decision by a treasonous person against the USA. 

Finally the new documentary TrainWreck: Woodstock '99 came out and Mark wants to discuss it a bit and focus on Fred Durst and Limp Bizkit were to blame for the rioting and dangerous atmorsphere...but they were already pissed before Fred Durst and company showed up. 

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