This week we sit down with Tim Young. Tim is a highly sought after political comedian, author and public speaker that has been on almost every media platform there is. Tim is the author of Fifty Shades of Romney, Fifty Shades of Obama and I Hate Democrats, I Hate Republicans. Tim also released his latest comedy special free on Rumble. So join us, as he critiques the absurdity of modern media, highlighting the oversimplification of complex issues and the rush to label anyone who disagrees as an 'idiot'. On this episode we really get into what I like to call "Breaking the Noise," as we shed light on the nuances often overlooked in mainstream news, while advocating for a culture that encourages critical thinking, respects differing opinions, and still manages to chuckle at the theatre of it all.
As he muses over his online feud with Cardi B, where after the Grammy's, he tweeted about the lyrics in her song WAP and compared them to Dr. Seuss being banned in schools but WAP allowed to be played freely. Tim demonstrates the surprising influence of social media - a mere tweet can spark an online firestorm, highlighting the power dynamics between celebrities and the public. But don't get lost in the maelstrom. Tim asks us to rise above the divisive clickbait culture and focus on finding common ground, and progress.
Through this episode, we'll cover wide-ranging topics, from baffling political pushes like the right's desire to repeal the 19th Amendment to shared experiences around a bottle of bourbon. Because yes, while Tim loves dissecting media and its peculiarities, he also relishes the storytelling magic of sharing a good bourbon with others.
Tim's resilience shines through in this episode. From his first op-ed at 14 that led to a scandalous dismissal of a child molester, he's a testament to the idea that one's voice can make a difference. Yet, he reminds listeners to pause and ponder before making life-altering decisions.
This episode is an unflinching exploration of media, personal values, and the power of discourse. Here, disagreements are welcome, bourbon is savored, and negativity doesn't get a look in. The key take away of this episode is that people should focus on finding common ground and making progress on issues rather than getting caught up in divisive click bait and arguing back and forth. With Tim Young on this episode, expect surprising insights, hearty laughs, and occasional moments of disbelief. Tune in, and let's share some Common Cents together.
