And introducing...singer, song-writer, composer, multi-instrumentalist, bandleader, and all around legend, it’s Mr. Frank Zappa! One of the S-tier weirdos of rock n’ roll, Zappa mixed genres from classical modernism to doo-wop with an acerbic sense of humor to create a vast discography of Rock weirdness. All the while, becoming one of the most outspoken musicians for free-speech and against censorship.  And today we’ll be talking all about his life, his works, and whether or not that’s a real poncho, I mean is that a mexican poncho or a sears poncho, through his autobiography “The Real Frank Zappa Book.”

But first let’s introduce our own guest, she’s a Tornoto-based pianist and composer, it’s Robin Hatch!

We tackle the short squeeze at GameStop that has caused their stock price to explode and offer a handy explainer for essential investing terms such as “shorting”, “naked shorts”, “tendies”, “diamond hands”, “gamma squeeze”, and “wife’s boyfriend”. We further offer a few lessons to take away from what has happened so far as well as some predictions for the future and a stern insistence that nothing we say in this podcast is investment advice.

Episode 216: The Short Squeeze on GameStop

Sports journalist Arif Hasan joins us to talk about how American football came from weird Teddy Roosevelt masculinity shit and eventually turned into an industry with unions and shit. We also make some predictions about the "big game."
