The Gay Power Half Hour

This week the boys let the dogs out. South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem brags about killing her dog which turns out is a little too maga even for maga. Protests on campuses nationwide have the boys (predictable) arguing but (surprisingly) also agreeing. Kevin Spacey asks to be uncanceled so the boys give some hot takes on The Biz.

Thirty minutes of content from two gay best friends. This week the boys don’t fight once! The Washington Correspondents Dinner is supposed to be funny but to the boys, it’s just a reminder that Biden needs a better makeup artist. Casey is still feeling butt hurt from the first Trump administration and if the Supreme Court grants absolute presidential immunity he’s preparing to get fully blown out by the second. Tony shares best practices for getting out of jury duty and with Tennessee enacting more bad laws the boys share a plan for getting people out of that state.

This week the boys can’t extinguish the flame. A man lights himself on fire outside of Trump’s trial leading to an argument over who can be defined as crazy. A question for women in the woods leads to a surprising answer and the debunking of a misogynistic myth, while a scientific breakthrough has Casey worried about the future of humanity in general and Tony rooting for the end. Very on brand.

This week the boys bring you doom AND gloom. An earthquake in NYC and a solar eclipse have the boys thinking about preparedness. The IDF kills several members of a relief organization and all of a sudden now the world has had enough. Korean women are refusing to interact with Korean men and the effects are generational, while white Americans move to Mexico and end up getting real white about it.

30 minutes with 2 gay hosts.

This week the boys join the ban wagon. Senator Katie Britt’s response to the SOTU proves why conservatives should leave acting to the Hollywood nepo-babies. Florida cracks down on spring breakers which is such an abrupt change of identity, it’s now illegal to talk about Florida in Florida public schools. Congress votes to ban TikTok, Boeing keeps literally falling apart and the boys are very suspicious of Queen Camilla.

This week the boys are giving it their best shot. Super Tuesday solidified the presidential race which the boys try to talk about but quickly end up shaming each others’ fetishes instead. Two male humpback whales are caught on film having sex and the boys talk about how these poor whales got done dirty. The boys almost make it a whole episode without fighting over Israel but Nikki Haley dropping out of the race is enough of the trigger they need.

This week the boys get very familiar. This month marks the tenth year the boys have known each other and Tony read the comments section to celebrate. After remembering why they love each other, Casey baits Tony into their favorite shared pastime, a fight.

This week the boys profess their love for each other, in obscure ways. Valentine's Day has the boys dreaming up the perfect gift for the perfect holiday. John Stewart returns to host The Daily Show and states his case against a Biden nomination, leaving liberals unclear of whose side even they are on. Casey maintains there are clear differences between the two American political parties and Tony disagrees which starts a fight that - in the recent past - would have taken a week to mend. In a sign of progress, this fight is mended after only 20 minutes.

This week the boys are floating above it all. A relentless atmospheric river has the boys feeling moist and ready to get physical. A right-wing freak beheads his father for being a government employee yet somehow Casey finds a bright side. A Michigan mother is convicted for her son’s school shooting and the boys think it’s about time parents pay for their creepy kids’ crimes. Republicans fail to impeach DHS Secretary Mayorkas in spectacular fashion and if turning easy wins into losses is their thing then the boys say “keep up the good work!”

This week the boys are mitigating, for once. Nicki and Megan are in a feud and the boys can relate. Texas Gov Greg Abbot stokes a literal civil war stand off which raises the question, who’s scared of Arkansas? Republicans push to impeach DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkus and the boys think that’s a characteristically stupid thing to do.

This week the boys have performance anxiety. Two white gays adopt a black baby on TikTok and it has the boys questioning all performative parenting. Trump’s performance at the polls scares the world but Tony and Casey both think he will lose, and argue over why. Barbie is snubbed at the Oscars and Tony explains why caring about that makes you a war criminal.

This week the boys are sick of it. Los Angeles sees a major rise in Covid, RSV, and the flu redefining what it means to be a Hollywood triple threat. The 2024 election cycle begins in Iowa and it’s still unclear which candidate has Tony’s vote. The boys argue over a generational divide, what constitutes yelling, and if it’s possible to catch ADD.

This week the boys aren’t quite ready for more in ‘24. Covid is starting the new year off strong and the boys wonder if it’s a harbinger of things to come. A Boeing Max-9 plane blows a door mid-flight so the boys talk about why flying does indeed blow. Gypsy Rose Blanchard is out of prison, married, and famous which begs the question, what are Tony and Casey doing wrong?

This week the boys are wrapping it up for the season. A senate aide goes unwrapped in a Senate conference room which leaves the boys wondering if you can really trust your close friends. The Pope gives gay Catholics a holiday present and gays, in true form, try to return it for something better. Tony considers a dangerous tattoo that could get him killed and Casey thinks it could be the gift that keeps giving, comedy-wise. And for the final episode of the year, Tony gives holiday shout-outs to debt defaulters, Casey's problematic brain, and Houthi pirates.

This week the boys are watching other people fight (for once). Republicans move forward with impeaching Biden so Casey dreams up a competition between Hunter and Don Jr that will settle the election for good. A racist tirade in a Disneyland bathroom is caught on film and Tony thinks racists need to take it outside. A woman successfully sues Texas for an abortion but Texas tells her that she doesn’t have to go home but she can’t stay here.

This week the boys contemplate the end. As their birthday season comes to a close Tony and Casey debate their favorite topic, who will die first. Iconic sex worker Sophie Anderson passes and the boys give her a filthy send-off fit for a queen. George Santos is officially booted from Congress, Kevin McCarthy announces his retirement and Henry Kissinger dies so, all in all, pretty good week for the left.

This week the boys keep the party going. It’s Tony's birthday week so he starts to question his literal place in this world. Casey gives Tony a memorable birthday present that doubles as a moral conundrum. George Santos is the gift that keeps giving as he sets his sociopathic sights on his fellow Republicans.

This week the boy is Casey. For his 40th birthday, Casey gets a surprise party and roasted by his friends but the biggest surprise might be what’s in his stomach. Tony makes Casey rank his best friends and the results don’t turn out in Tony’s favor. Donald Trump spoils the party by calling Americans vermin while congressional Republicans act like zoo monkeys, in that they keep throwing sh*t at each other and need to be locked in cages.

This week the boys remain conflicted. Tony visits from Illinois while Casey weekends in Palm Springs and both return rejuvenated. Joe Biden gets a new nickname (along with some scary poll numbers) and the boys discuss why that’s a problem for the world. Statewide elections are good for Democrats but the crisis in Gaza continues to worsen for everyone.
