Mark Bland and Jason Kull welcomed guest Keegan Emmert, a talented magician and mentalist, to the show for an engaging and thought-provoking episode. Alongside Keegan's fascinating insights into the world of magic and mentalism, the hosts tackled a disturbing news story that highlights the dangers of Donald Trump's reckless pardons. The episode focused on Andrew Taake, a January 6th insurrectionist pardoned by Trump, who is now wanted for soliciting a minor in Texas. Taake’s troubling history includes assaulting a police officer during the Capitol riot and a prior charge for soliciting a minor in 2016. Despite these serious offenses, Trump’s pardon allowed him to evade accountability, putting public safety at risk. Mark and Jason offered their unflinching commentary on how incidents like this validate concerns raised by Democrats about Trump’s unrepentant supporters. The discussion shed light on the ongoing repercussions of these decisions and their implications for justice and public safety. With Keegan’s captivating performance and sharp analysis of current events, this episode delivered a mix of entertainment and hard-hitting commentary that will leave listeners both amazed and informed.
