This episode of DXP is light on serious content but heavy on verse, so if you’re uncomfortable with two grown men taking turns citing poetry back and forth, best to move along. Before we get to that, however, we reminisce about the hard-hitting episodes of our favorite ‘80s TV shows and take a voice mail about Alfred Lloyd Tennyson. We then commiserate with another caller about the worst (or most awesome) excuse to cut a date short. We take some time to discuss the controversial actions of Colin Kaepernick, a man so unpatriotic he has the audacity to protest authority and the abuse of power (the founding fathers would be so ashamed). Our “Dick Move, God” segment explores the plight of a woman pimped out then cast aside (by another woman, no less), and Christian’s bieber involves a lot of math, while Jason’s demonstrates that he watches too many movies.
Also, only Hank Moody can reference fingerbanging a cat and it be funny.

Okay, I completely agree with you guys about scientific fundamentalists during Christian’school bieber. However, they are able to find exoplanets by looking at it’s affects on it’s sun. The planet pulls on the star as it goes around, and we can detect the star’s movement. We can also see the affects of the planet passing in front of other things, blocking and bending light. When they say it might be habitual, it just means we haven’t found anything that makes it unhabitual yet. Such as being too far or close to the sun (goldilocks zone, not too hot not too cold), or being too massive (crushing gravity). So mostly just estimates of mass and distance, not full color photos.
Habitual? I think you mean habitable or inhabitable . Unhabitual is not even a word
uninhabitable is.
Yeah sure. Typed fast with autocorrect.
Colin is a total hero! A worthy successor to MLK, Malcom X, and Fredrick Douglass. Who will stand up for the 15 unarmed black men shot per year by police officers in the US if not him? And who the hell gave all these people the right to be outraged and blast him for not standing during the national anthem?!? Its like they live in a free country or something. Bunch of retards.
The only thing that worries me is how Trump somehow goes up in the polls every time these issues come up? Its like people think this whole issue is completely manufactured and dillusional or something… Anyways, I hope they erect a statue in Kaps honor next to old Abe. Hopefully with the pig socks
Christian I went through my own gnarly break-up around the time this podcast started and you told me to get keep my head up. Since then this has become my mantra:

Ha, yeah, if I could sleep more, that’d be great. Now I would probably tell you to just try to get your head above water enough to get some oxygen in those lungs. That’s what a lot of days feel like.
