Trump

5/10/2024
This lively loudmouth is loved by many and loathed by lots of others who suffer from TDS.

But one thing is for sure, the mainstream media mentions him almost daily due to his sassy sound bites and his often controversial takes. You are fake news! He’s a boisterous businessman, pesky politician, and a raucous reality TV star to boot. We’ll take a look at Donald Trump on this week’s episode of FYI. Support the Show.

Do I make you horny baby? Do I? Do I make you randy? Yeah! It's everywhere we look, in music, movies, TV, and it's even slipped its way into art. It can be the ultimate bonding experience, a deeper connection, if you catch my drift. Oh Yeah! All joking aside and make no mistake about this: it's vital to our very existence. Where would we be without the power to procreate and pass the torch down, as well as our legacy, to the next generation?

Teeth

And even though we try and avoid, it we need to visit our dentists regularly for a check up or a routine cleaning, and if you’re lucky you won’t need a root canal.
