I enjoyed JP’s 12 Rules. Several in there that I wouldn’t have thought of myself.
Yes, I enjoyed that one too, and that was where I first learned about him. 

I used to never listen to podcasts, but now follow two: his and one other.
He has so many, so I don't listen to all of them -- just the ones with an appealing topic.

I had to browse Wikipedia to learn about Kathy Griffin:

On November 4, 2020 (her 60th birthday and the day after the 2020 United States presidential election), Griffin once again posted a photo of her posing with a model of Donald Trump's bloody, decapitated head.

Will anyone tell me what decapitated head is?

Who cares about poor Kathy Griffin? The decapitated head is something!

Thank you for Babylon Bee, it's really funny. I wouldn't know about it without that ban.

Soccer is awful at the best of times, but having to watch it sober must be like torture.

And 2.5% Bud (aargh) => frequent visits to the WC.

I suspect that there are mental health issues here.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you.
Just because you're sick doesn't mean you're not a sicko.

Random  thought .. what about getting David Icke to do MOTD?

Or this timeless style, although I preferred John Webster.

David Icke has also made anti-Semitic comments. At least he has an insanity defence!

I think the BBC should arrange a tour of Auschwitz for Lineker.
