The HBO documentary THE SWAMP (2020) follows three "maverick" Republican congressmen who seek to fulfil Donald Trump's promise to "drain the swamp," even if that means alienating their party leaders. But what you really need to know about this documentary is that the main one is Matt Gaetz, and he is a huge doofus. PLUS: thoughts on Canada Day, Alex Gibney's Agents of Chaos, and a look back at the media coverage of the War in Iraq.

I'm always enchanted when Moxy Fruvous come up, as I spent much of my teenage 90s ostensibly 'liking' the band from what I estimated to be my position as the only person in England to have heard of them. I only knew they existed thanks to a particular 1am show I used to listen to on the now defunct Greater London Radio, and I guess I liked them because there was no internet, so the listicle of names presented in Baby Loves a Bunch of Authors read like a Rosetta stone of figures I should be getting into if I wanted to be seen as clever. I only ever heard like three of their songs, but I casually saught them out in record shops for the prevailing four years. Finally I discovered what I estimated to be the only Moxy Fruvous record ever to exist in England, a singular import CD in the also now defunct Tower Records Piccadilly Circus. The import CD was like £23 so I never bought it, and thus ended my relationship with Moxy Fruvous, until this podcast explained to me their ubiquity in Canada. But I thought our Canadian hosts might find it comforting to know how little impact the band had elsewhere. "which was the style at the time", etc.

I, the former king of Spain, concur that their music comes to non-Canadians in very unique ways. In my case, a girl my roommate was dating made him a mix tape with some of their greatest hits on it, and I thought it was delightful. The guy that wrote that book about the Bell Curve, he gets a… kick in the ass! Come on that’s clever. P.S. Now I vacuum the turf at SkyDome and I totally know where that is

I used to listen to or watch odd things when falling asleep, and one of them was a VHS I'd randomly taped with the Krugman/O'Reilly debate - every night for weeks for months. Would love to get the whole thing, I think only clips are on YouTube.
