Great content, goys. You should have McNabb on for every pandemic! It was interesting to hear his experiences in rural health care facilities. What an unserious (multicultural) country! I wish the alt-right would exhibit a niche commentary on single-payer or some kind of nationalized health system strategy, since the (((private sector))) has left many White Americans high and dry for far too long and especially during a crisis. Anyhow, got some mulch spread about and got a good dog walk in listening to the pogrom. I don’t think James was joking about changing out of his Birkenstocks footwear for the… Read more »
Ya know, just because you know China is lying doesn’t mean you know what the real info is.
China could have just as easily been running some fake op to make it look worse than it is to cause panic.
I don’t think anyone trusted China. But because they lied no one had any idea what the fuck was going on until Italy.

I have to say I really enjoyed Alex being on the show. I think you guys should make this a regular thing. Say once a month.
Once a month they should have Guest FTN. Like I know that they have a lot of guests, but it needs to be on a schedule. ONCE a month. To sooth my autism.
OK so have Alex on once a month and then have another guest on once a month.

“I’m consuming cable news…”
My god the sacrifices Jazz makes for us!
And NO I’m not being facetious! If I had to watch those cable news scumbags I probably would [REDACTED!]
“Prepping vs. Helplessness”
For the record the only thing I feel helpless about is the TOILET PAPER!
I mean REALLY! Do I HAVE to drive all the way to New York to get T-P
from the same place as Jamie???
@Jazz , Military Gets called up for longer periods than needed so the Gov’t does not have to keep re-writing Orders every 6 months/year. And, the Gov’t can and does stop orders sooner than designated
Canada’s borders aren’t completely closed if illegals and “refugees” who show signs of illness can still get into the country and spread whatever it is they’re infected with throughout the country. Trudeau will let you in.
Have 2 n95s, u can lay them out in a dry area for a few days and reuse, also get Microban , it kills viruses and continues for 24hrs, spray it on your gloves after putting them on and let it dry before going in the grocery, that way everything you touch with the gloves wont transfer to gloves as easy and should continue to be sterile for a good while.
Spoilt too much by strike and mike 2.5hrs feels so short ;_;
S&M was fucking brutal. It took me most of two days to finish listening at work.
Just for THAT comment Strike and Mike ought to do a SIX hour show! You’ll take it and you’ll LIKE it!!!
“you didn’t kill the virus, you killed the cure”
One of the best McFeels quotes ever.
Trump is doing such a shitty job…….Yet he’s going to get re-elected so easily. (Face palm)
At this point I don’t think it matters WHO is elected!
This.
It doesn’t. Just almost depressing that this guy is going to waltz to re-election after 3 years of being the worlds biggest con artist, purely because the democrats are literally fucking insane.
I know that feel.
When it comes to the insane asylum that is the American ruling class I only have rage!
Indeed. This is one confirmation bias that’s been bittersweet to come to fruition. Everyone who said I was insane, or at the least hyperbolic to a degree bordering on it are doing a hard reset on their world views.
Let’s look on the bright side, it’s 4/20 all month long.
More brilliant artwork by Frontierland!
Much obliged nnnguy.
“Caramelized seamen.”
Jazzhands, when the joke went too far. ?
I think it’s the Teddy Roosevelt out there currently (okay, now it’s in Guam and the Captain/Commanding Officer just got fired/relieved of command), not the Lincoln. I’ve only been on carriers, and I never had to ‘hot bunk’/share my sleeping quarters, but they do do that on submarines. Maybe even smaller ships, too (the [amphibious assault ship] USS Boxer, I guess, had the first ‘official’ US Navy Coronavirus diagnosis).
You know, I take that back-I was on the USS Juneau, too, which I assume is a similar ship to the Boxer, and never had to hot-bunk on that, either. Not to say it doesn’t happen. Plus, you don’t need to share your bunk to get exposed to every single person’s nasty germs on a ship just moving about it.
This show was most enjoyable and full of great questions that I am sure proud, that young men like you will answer some day.
No one can do this alone and we all need each other.
The best thing you can do, is help those you love and make life easier for those who need it.
This show has grown to another level over the years and I am glad to see it happen.
Keep showing emotions, Data, and see if Starfleet doesn’t decide to pull your plug for getting too close to singularity…
Thanks friend. Appreciate the sincerity and kind words. We want our people to make the best of a bad (and worsening) situation.
Great to hear Alex get much deserved airtime.
Still working in manufacturing thanks to really vague guidelines on who is life essential and non essential. We’ve been absolutely swamped with material to work on. Nothing corona or health related. Company guys telling us if we call off unless you get the coof it will be counted against you. Union is silent on everything. No talk of hazard pay or anything at all regarding the pandemic. I’ve been trying to rile people up but these people are so apathetic. Now would be the time to make demands, too. But nah just show up for shift and get excited for… Read more »
Worst part is, there’s been a few employees that have gotten sick and sent to the hospital and they havent related any information to us regarding it. Do they have the coof? Who knows! Get back to work 🙂
waifu’s office just had someone test positive. they said he was sick and coughing but gave no further details
I’m an expendable worker as well. Have to work directly with the public. At least I’m one of the few who hasn’t had my hours cut (yet), and we all got a paltry $2.50 an hour hazard pay bump for the duration. The silver lining is our corporate paymasters all the way up the line won’t be getting bonuses until its over because our little pay bump comes out of their end.
Line?
Halo is a great series.
In response to Alex McNabb questioning availability of qualified staff, I got a call today from the hospital administration of the hospital I work for basically saying “hey we are going to have you work outside your scope of practice when shit gets rough, you in?”
it doesn’t seem like it’s really a question as much as they’re just telling you what’s going to happen or you’re going to be fired.
Yeah that’s pretty much the case.
I knew this was coming. I remember telling a buddy that before it’s over anyone with a CNA license is gonna be equivalent to an MD.
I like when ftn has guests. Jazz and James are great. I just like the variety a guest brings. I hope Ethnarc stops by. That would be a good guest. ? Racial Consciousness. He’d be good.
I don’t have an opinion on guests. But yes, Ethnarc is a good guy and an erudite contributor.
To me guests are all about changing the chemistry every once in awhile to get a new perspective, approach things from another angle. You might say it adds complexity, depth to the audiences understanding of things. You could even say it adds nnnuance.
I think he wanted to focus on other stuff. I miss the guy but I like James.
I want someone that’ll really stir shit up! So…Tom Metzger!
Jazzhands be like: This is definately between a total nothingburger and the apocalypse
Jazzhands be like: Grugs can’t quite seem to out of those two options so lemme just tell you definitively it’s neither
Much like genders there are only 2 threat levels. Nothing to worry about and end of the world.
Thank you gentlemen.
Get Mister Metokur to come on for Corona-Focus; he’s nnndeep nnnit
McNabb needs goggles in that pic.
Ooo, he leakin’
Dude, that was the exact same thought I had when seeing the Bamberlamps label
He need some milk!
The virgin Doom vs the Chad Bannerlord
I’ve played some good PC-games back in my time. Uh… I love a good half-life mod, quake3 and unreal-tournament99 and instagib mutators in a deathmatch. That is hot stuff, you can still play that at- at a number of different servers.
I like Gears Of War.
Fucking fantastic. You won the day.
I’m really enjoying all the shows cross-pollinating like this lately.
It’s like the marvel universe, just not fake or gay or jevvish.
Great takes on how frontline healthcare workers get treated. You are dispensable.
That can be applied to the entirety of the American workforce. Many such cases!
Just to break character before I start the show. One thing I have learned about the psychology of white people is that they hate being scammed. Once the scam is shown in full detail to them and they have time process the scam, white people will have a mental feed back loop, or backlash to that type of scam. Random white people on the internet will not listen to some nice nerd explain the scam to them. They are too busy in their bubble of media and life. So if you create a character that is a Dark Mirror for… Read more »
Spoopy cover art, Frontierland. Who’s this Alex McNabb guy, tho…
Thanks fam…
But, the real question is… Wher da bamberlance at?
McNabb is seventh, McNabb is seventh
1200 dollars is just enough to cover the rent on a modest 1 bedroom apartment for a month. I don’t know how they plan on you eating
1200 would be fine for places like Texas, but there needs to be a COLA for places like California or New York
People who say China must pay know they are full of shit they know damn well there is no way to make them pay and actually going to war is off the table and I dare them to pretend that it is
If any of y’all are self-employed and have lost income due to Coronachan you can make money printer go brrr with a $10,000 grant from the SBA. All it takes is filling out a very simple online form. No repayment of the $10k is necessary. https://covid19relief.sba.gov/
You can decide to accept or decline any loan offered to you above the $10k but the EIDL grant is a no-brainer.
Can gig workers get on this, and even if they are gig workers as a second job?
Yes, gig workers are eligible. I know of no requirement that the lost income must be the only source of income in order to qualify. More detailed explanation: If you get paid without having tax taken out of your pay you’re a self-employed sole proprietor. Look on your 1040 and find Schedule C; your gross income is the largest dollar amount you’ll see on it since it’s every dollar you earned before subtracting business expenses. If you drive for Uber or Lyft, rent out a room or more on Airbnb, mow lawns, have onlyfans income, etc. you’re self employed and… Read more »
I’ll look into it more, thanks borther!
flu and colds spread more in the winter because historically that is when people do gatherings indoors. maybe with enough time, those diseases found a little niche in that setting and it made them suck at spreading in warm weather. cv is making it’s first round through, going full speed ahead!
Global pandemic sucks but TRS and especially FTN has remained a bright spot. Thanks goys. Looking forward to listening to this tomorrow
