And, just like that, another episode of the podcast.

Episode #138 of the Countdown podcast is up at iHeart Radio.

Preview:

A-Block (1:28) SPECIAL COMMENT: Only Marjorie Taylor Greene would be stupid enough to demand a “national divorce” in which the United States “separates by red states and blue states” — when SHE LIVES IN A BLUE STATE. But then again, what do you expect? She was raised on a diet of Fox News [sic].

Keith needs to recheck his history. During the Civil War, Atlanta wasn’t Georgia’s “top city” … it wasn’t even in the top three, being behind Savannah, Augusta, and Columbus.

Speaker McCarthy has now unilaterally handed over 41,000 hours of 1/6 Capitol Security Video to Tucker Carlson and Carlson can now provide a roadmap to the next seditionists on how to avoid security while also gaslighting the story of 2021. Last week, we learned of the astonishing cynical manipulation of America by Carlson, Laura Ingraham, Sean Hannity and the others, who didn’t believe a word of the denialist crap they sold the country. Between those two stories it’s time for the country to act to de-platform and close down Fox News [sic] as a clear and present danger to the future of the United States of America. The Department of Justice needs to seek a restraining order to keep Fox from manipulating the video McCarthy gave it.

I’ve been arguing since 1998 that Fox News was a mortal peril. Since 2007, I’ve said it was more damaging to this country than Al-Qaeda has been. We must shut them down the way we shut down Big Tobacco and Big Pharma.

And now an update on OWL WATCH ‘23:

x Did I ever mention that when he was @joenbc's hatchet man at @msnbc - assigned by Joey Scars to interfere with other shows, get favorable coverage for Joe's friends, piss on my show, Maddow's and the others, etc - we used to think Licht ate paste? — Keith Olbermann (@KeithOlbermann) February 19, 2023

C-Block (34:30) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY Parish Paws Animal Rescue in Shreveport

Parish Paws Animal Rescue in Shreveport (35:51) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: The influence of Fox News and the belief by some of its hosts like Carlson that they are in fact running this country is in large part the result of mainstream media negligence. In 2009, Fox tried to avenge itself against me by attacking GE’s Chairman and he folded up because his mother was a Bill O’Reilly viewer and she saw what O’Reilly said and called up her son and yelled at him.

Unless Keith posts ANOTHER podcast tonight, that’s all the damage for now.

Good morning, good afternoon, good night, and good luck.
