New Studio Test Driving with Jim Earl

It's Wednesday, October 29, 2025. I've been in and out over the last few weeks because we moved, again. I'm exhausted and every inch of my body hurts. But I somehow managed to rebuild my studio in the new digs. Today, we take it out for a spin.

Today I'm thrilled to welcome Jim Earl to the show for the very first time. You know I like to deliver the news with some snark and attitude, especially when the news is as fucked-up and evil as it's been for much too long. Jim's the perfect guest to help me do that.

You know Jim Earl even if you think you don't know him, but you know him! First of all, he's a former writer/performer for The Daily Show (even has an Emmy to show for it). He's a veteran of Air America Radio where he wrote and performed on the best morning show I never worked on, "Morning Sedition" as well as WTF with Marc Maron (RIP- the show, not the man) and National Lampoon's Final Edition. He thankfully quit the Jimmy Dore Show in disgust. He even wrote for the first incarnation (2016) of The Fucking News, which we dip into with Jonathan Larsen on Mondays...

With all of those defunct jobs, it's no wonder that Jim Earl is obsessed with death. OK, I don't know that that's the case, but one of his Substacks-and his book-- are called "Mourning Remembrance: A Collection of Mocking Obituaries". Again, Halloween week.... He also writes "Jim Earl's Substack of Bile" where he says he likes to "spew ill-informed nonsense about current events, stupid and horrific". Perfect for dealing with the dumpster fire in DC...
