We're still here. Somehow. 2020 has been kicking all of our asses and we're still only in the 4th round. Each month feels like it's own year. It's been a month since the last Insanity Check and so much has changed. Bernie Sanders is not only out of the race for the Democratic Nomination but he quickly endorsed Joe Biden, the US leads in Coronavirus cases AND Deaths (USA,  USA, USA), Trump isn't the dumbest sitting republican in office (its tough to top asking if ppl can inject disinfectants to kill the virus but some people have) and so much more. Kriss is joined by Dpalm for this episode so strap in. Topics: What could  possibly  happen in a month? Didn't know we  had to say this but: Please don't drink bleach cause of Donald Trump No, protesting Stay At Home Orders doesn't make you Rosa Parks White people need natural predators so they know  what real oppression is like New Segment (special for only Dpalm): THAT'S SO GEORGIA Governor Kemp didn't know asymptomatic people could spread coronavirus The

What a difference a month makes. Joe Biden goes from dead in the water in the Democratic Primary to being the Presumptive Nominee, the Coronavirus pandemic has whole states on quarantine and locusts....yes...locusts. Don't know who the writers are for this finale season of 'Earth' but it's beginning to be a bit unbelievable and lose the plot here. Need them to get their shit together. Topics: As if Covid-19 wasn't enough, countries in Africa are dealing with millions of locusts New 'Shelter-in-Place' orders for some states Stay your ass home: Young people gonna be the death of all of us Remember when Trump said this was all a hoax? Dear Media: Stop trying to give Trump 'soft ball questions' Bernie blew a 3-1 lead in the primary The NYT and Buzzfeed look at where Bernie went wrong (it's not a shock) Celebrities Being Stupid During a Pandemic Brie Larson is the only leading white lady in Marvel not crazy. Evangeline Lilly won't self quarantine cause of "freedom" Keri Hilson claims 5G radiation is be

Happy Black History Month everyone! This month Kriss is back with a new episode of the Insanity Check with guest Tim (@Peoplescrtic). As everyone knows Black History Month is always prime time for foolery and ridiculousness. And 2020 is no different. Because of that there is no Great Moments in White Privilege this month. Instead Kriss is saying "Happy Black History Month" with a few ridiculous tales about how sometimes it be your own people. From the black choir director who thought having an all white choir singing negro spirituals was a good idea to the black producer who thought it wise to hide the identity of a white rape victim by having her dress up with a curly fro and black face. And who could forget all the folks caping for Bloomberg? Now to be fair...for $2500 a month, you might could get some "Mike Will Get It Done" ads on the MTR Network. Topics: Parasite wins big at the Oscars The dudebros made that Harley Quinn wasn't "sexy enough" in Birds of Prey Happy Black History Month White Mic

We're starting 2020 off with the beginning of the end for the Insanity Check. Kriss will be doing one Insanity Check a month leading up to December being the last regularly scheduled Insanity Check. It's been a fun ride but all good things must come to an end. But that end isn't here just yet. We kick things off once again with Justin from ThreeFifsPodcast to talk all the things that have happened over the last month. From Tyler Perry's ridiculous claim of "work ethic" to the idiocy that is the newly formed "Space Force". We even throw in Michael Bloomberg telling us Blacks that "Stop & Frisk" was meant to HELP us, not harm. Oh joy. Tune in and give it a listen. Topics: Tyler Perry and the flaw of "Hustlenomics" Perry has a history of being anti-union Woman's life "nearly destroyed" after she was an asshole and tried to destroy someone else's life Space Force is officially a thing Warren vs Sanders: Funny how its never Bernie's fault Bill Cosby's former lawyer suspended for misusing client fund

We weren't going to leave this decade without having an Insanity Check episode. Kriss is back with two of his favorite people, Rod & Karen from The Black Guy Who Tips. A lot of things have happened since the last time there was a show. Mike Vick pisses off white people again, Trump got impeached and Antonio Brown makes a solid case for how the NFL & Football cause CTE. AND MORE. So sit back and give this show a listen.  There's also an important announcement about the future of the Insanity Check.  Topics: White people are mad at Mike Vick and proving that animal lives mean more to them than human lives Antonio Brown & his No More White Women 2020 campaign video Pastor tries to pay for sex with Arby's card prompting the question: WHO THE FUCK IS EATING AT ARBY'S????  Wakanda is apparently real Trump is impeached and still has a solid chance at reelection Rod makes a solid case for why more Democratic candidates and a long cycle isn't that bad Great Moments in White Privilege Racist Teacher gets put

Kriss is back with another episode of the Insanity Check to cover this week's dose of insanity in the world. This week he's joined by  Topics: Kriss finally has the Popeyes Chicken Sandwich. It's good but not getting stabbed good Shaming black people and poor people for...living Gender reveal leads to plane crash TI shows how ignorant he is when talking about his daughter's sexual health El Bloombito is back...that time of year where Michael Bloomberg threatens to run for President Bill Gates and other Billionaries feel threatened by Elizabeth Warren Do You Even Sci-Fi Bro?

Kriss is back with another episode of the Insanity Check to cover this week's...well...the last several week's... dose of insanity in the world. This week he's joined by People's Critic, Tim. We cover a wide range of topics from the backlash to the Harriet movie to white people needing natural predators (maybe don't lay in a bed with an 8 foot python). But most importantly on this November 3rd (when this was recorded) we talk about the most important thing: The return of the Popeye's chicken sandwich. Topics: The Harriet movie has it's issues but you don't have to make them up The speed and staying power of false information Thanksgiving needs its own music or its gonna keep going from Halloween to Christmas Bill Maher Says the Dumbest Things Woman found dead with snake around her neck in house with 140 snakes I don't care about the gender of your baby...especially not enough to die from it Rudy Guiliani is an idiot White House Halloween party let kids "build the wall" because...teach them racism & b

Kriss is back with another episode of the Insanity Check to cover this week's dose of insanity in the world. This week he's joined once again by Justin from ThreeFifsPodcast.com. We open with the serious (but also not serious) threat from Ben Shapiro...a whiny, man baby who threatens violence because of the thought of his child being taught about LGBTQ issues. It's amazing how many people use religion to hide behind when it comes to their bigotry. Then we move on to Kanye, the Dallas PD being completely out of control and more. Give it a listen. Topics: Ben Shapiro... studio gangster Kanye at Howard - We all know how this is going to end Amber Guyger's judge hugs her after sentencing and gives a really stupid reason why Black people being asked and conditioned to forgive is abuse Dallas PD shoot another black person in their own home Elizabeth Warren is trolling the trolls (Facebook) Great Moments in White Privilege Ellen and her best friend...GW Bush Guest: Justin - @LJay90   Like w

New Insanity Check episode! After a bit of a delay due to the Toronto Film Festival, Kriss is back with guest Justin to talk about all the crazy things that have happened in the world. The most important thing that's happen though is: Popeyes ran out of chicken sandwiches. But never fear, they have a solution for all of you just dying to have that sandwhich: BYOB. Bring.Your.Own.Bun. Yeah...they're gonna sell you a box of chicken tenders and tell you to make your own damn sandwich. Don't let me catch any of you doing this. Anyway, we got a lot to cover, from more ways to die in Australia to Trump vs Bolton. There's a lot here so give it a listen. Topics: Six Weeks for Spicy - Popeyes says to bring your own bun if you want a chicken sandwich More ways to die in Australia  Pulling a Ben Carson - Ben Carson has perfected the art of failing upward What has Trump done now? Nothing wrong with inviting the Taliban to Camp David the week of 9/11 When you're too crazy/stupid for John Bolton.... NOAA-Gate Y

Kriss is back with another episode of the Insanity Check to cover this week's dose of insanity in the world. This week he's joined by someone who is no stranger to the show (and also the harbinger of the end of the world), Dpalm. We got a lot to cover, from Disney & Sony having a divorce (at the expense of Peter Parker) to the Amazon burning. Everything is terrible. Except the Popeyes chicken sandwich. That's great. Allegedly.  Topics: The Disney-Sony Breakup - Folks do realize they're both multi-billionaire companies right? The Popeyes Chicken Sandwich is making everyone lose their mind Popeyes' chicken sandwich isn't why your friends and family don't support your "work" The Amazon is burning...everything is fine Justice Department "mistakenly" sends out email with link to white supremacist site. "Accidentally" AG Bar thinks the police shouldn't be questioned or protested. Police officer makes up sniper attack Make Marysville White Again Apparently people don't talk before they get married Great M

Kriss is back with another episode of the Insanity Check to cover this week's dose of insanity in the world. This week he's joined by Tim (@Peoplescrtic). With all the terrible in the world we start off with some lighter stuff: The Mouse Takes Over the World. Disney has a steal of a Disney+ bundle and is killing it at the box-office this year. So much for the idea that people don't want to see sequels, remakes and reboots. On the more serious side, Jeffrey Epstein is dead and its all very suspicious and Trump lacks the basics of human compassion and emotion. Topics: Disney+ coming for our pockets Mighty Mouse: Disney ruling the 2019 box-office Battle of the streaming services The Purge franchise is so good and relevant Pedophile Jeffrey Epstein commits suicide...that's not suspicious  R Kelly in jail on federal charges R Kelly's "crisis manager" quits after saying he wouldn't let his daughter be around R Kelly Trump uses El Paso victims as a photoshoot Ivanka and Melania are co-conspirator
