Welcome to another episode of Conversation on Tap! This episode was recorded after the November 2018 Congressional election, but Jose was unable to edit the Podcast in the weeks and months after his baby was born. So, this episode is late, but the content is definitely still relevant!
In this week's episode, Joel and Jose's great friend Scott joined them to discuss the historic Congressional election of 2018. But, first, Scott poured a round of delicious Yuengling, a treat that few people on the West Coast have enjoyed.
For their FRED Talks, Jose talked about how some Christians or pseudo-Christian denominations mistakenly believe the name of God is Jehovah (spoiler: God's name is Yahweh), while Joel talked about the art of using a credit card to rack up points to travel the world.
In the main segment of the show, Scott, Joel, and Jose all talked about the history making results of the 2018 election. While the three of them had hoped for a larger blue wave, they were nonetheless encouraged that the Democrats took back the House. They also looked at some problematic ideological tenets of today's conservatives, as well as some of the undemocratic feature of our system of government. Scott and Joel even take time to offer Jose some parenting tips! Finally, they looked toward the future and at some potential 2020 challengers.
To wrap up the show, Joel gushed about A Star is Born and insisted that Lady Gaga should win an Oscar. Jose talked about Leah Remini's show Aftermath, which focuses on the cult-like practices of Scientology.
Thank you for joining us! We were so glad Scott could join us, and we hope he comes back soon!
Next week, we will be talking about our unpopular opinions. Cheers!
