Notes:

Soooo this was a weird one. 

Had some technical issues pertaining to my phone picking up weird feedback. On top of that I was lucky enough to get stuck in some pretty epic, though fairly common, Atlanta traffic! So today you get more or less two topics in one. Lucky you! If I sound a bit loopy, that's because my brain was trying to stay both awake and agile while Atlanta drivers moved forward slowly and diagonally at dangerous speeds. 

Anyways... here are the links to the items I mentioned in this episode. 

NowThis video of Mayor Pete and Andrew Yang and their respective favorite swear words: Here

Kamala Harris got high, maybe video: Here

Correction: It was Snoop Doggy Dog and Tupac, not Dr. Dre.  Mea Culpa, Mea Culpa, Mea Maxima Culpa!

Elizebeth Warren likes beer and so can you: Here

Hillary Clinton totally failing at pouring beer so you know, def can't be prez brah: Here


Here is the weirdo that removed people nipples and ears. They call him Dr. Evil. Fun fact, not a certified doctor. Shocker, I know!: Here


The boxer that recently died: Here

The Thai boxer that died fairly recently (November 2018): Here

Christian Daghio survived by his wife and five-year-old daughter.

Daghio had 189 professional fights, winning 145 of them. 


Every week, before the sun comes up, The Driver hits the road. That quiet, mobile space becomes the recording studio for 400thoughts, a project born from the rhythm of the daily commute. The premise is straightforward but ambitious: four hundred episodes, delivered weekly, each one a snapshot of whatever ideas, curiosities, or observations happen to be occupying his mind. You won’t find a rigid schedule of topics here. Instead, this podcast meanders through society and culture, reflecting the host’s own shifting interests-a deep dive into a documentary one week, a reflection on a community trend the next, or a simple musing on the changing landscape seen from the driver’s window. It’s the audio equivalent of a long, winding conversation with a thoughtful friend who’s done a lot of reading and even more thinking. The result is an intimate and unpredictable collection, united more by a genuine sense of curiosity than by a single theme. Tune in for a dose of unscripted perspective, where each episode is a brief, companionable detour into the random thoughts of a random person, all while the miles roll by.
