One of the most significant events of the past 50 years.

Mike and I discuss marriage. Why are modern men, especially young men, deciding against marriage?

Statistics show that fewer men are willing to marry. While this is a disturbing trend there are reasons. Women file for divorce at a rate approaching 70% versus men. When women file for divorce they g

What is happening to our military?

The military is going woke. Is it too late to reverse course? How do we deal with people who have "special needs" in a military culture?

Mike and I ramble on a couple of current events. Erudite commentary?

We have been off for a while so we thought we would come back with a talk on several subjects that occurred over the past few weeks.

Once you've "crossed the Rubicon", there is no going back to the way things were before. Likewise when an Administration uses the power of Federal Law enforcement to abuse a political opponent, it establishes a new norm for political misdeeds.

This was not a "good thing".

After the Russian collusion hoax and dozens of other lies told about Donald Trump from our so-called intel agencies what are we to believe? Sure, he is a bit over the top but compared to others his po

When news occurs, it is usually wise to look a little deeper to understand the news. Mike and I discuss the Biden Administration and its recent decision to release oil for consumption from the strategic petroleum reserve (SPR).

President Biden stated that this was necessary to help ease the pain that America is experiencing at the gas pump. A noble objective to be sure.

Mac talks about the Strategic Petroleum Reserve being used to send oil to other nations including China! What the heck is all this about? Do they have something on Joe Biden and Hunter? We are left to

This week, and who knows, maybe in the coming weeks, we decided to just rap about things instead of planning out a subject beforehand. Back in the ’70s, we used the term “rap” to …

My friend Mike and I discuss "conspiracy theories".

We live in a time of "information overload", it is incumbent on each of us to use our intellect, experience, and common sense to carefully review the information that we consume and to test that information against our intellect/experience. Be discerning about the source and "believability" about that which we see/hear/read.

Don't be THAT guy/gal who repeats information without careful review!

What causes conspiracy theories? Who is prone to believe them? Are they ever correct? All these questions and more are covered by Mac and Mike. Visit MacAndMike.com for more

If there is a different standard of justice for one group over another, then there is no justice.

Agree? Disagree?

What can/could/should be done?

Up front, I need to correct something you will hear in the video. I said that 86 or 87% of Washington D. C. voted Democrat. The correction is that it is 92.1% according to Best Places dot com. The…

Mike and I discuss a subject that has impacted both of us in our respective lives. How can we deal with grief?

The Federal Government Department of Homeland Security is creating a Board to oversee, review, and determine if people are creating and/or distributing information that can be defined as "misinfomation", "disinformation", and "mal-information".

When, where, and how does any individuals "opinion" fall into the category of "mis", "dis", or "mal" information?

Will YOUR "opinion" be determined to be mis/dis/mal information?

What happens to YOU if it is?

For our younger audience, there is a book written by George Orwell called 1984. It was written in 1947 and turned into a movie twice since then. This is where terms like “Big Brother is watch…

What are we talking about? There are many aspects of this story...

This subject is riddled with emotion on all sides. No single issue has divided America more than this since the 1973 decision was handed down. A lot has changed since then. We know more about when …

What is happening? Why does everything cost so much?

Mac wanted to discuss inflation and Biden. We meander a bit away from that subject but it’s all good. I don’t have much to say in writing that wasn’t already said in the video. Ma…

After a hiatus due to health, we return to discuss propaganda and extremism.

Mac and Mike discuss examples of propaganda and how it can lead to extreme views. We have 24 hours to fill with 30 minutes of news. This leads to way too much commentary. The commentary leads to ju…
