Dumb Gay Podcast with Julie Goldman & Brandy Howard

Special Council Robert Mueller finally testified before Congress, and Julie & Brandy were not impressed. Nonetheless, they work through their sober/diet rage in order to rehash the details and the aftermath of his testimony, including possible impeachment proceedings and future Russian election meddling. After that, they do a Gay Guys & Their Feelings featuring several different listeners with feelings about Julie & Brandy & Bernie Sanders! It's an episode filled with lots of rage, lots of feedback and lots of f*cking feelings! So, if that doesn't appeal to you- you're probably in good company. ***************************************************************************************************************************** *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman **** Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** DGP *** Gay Podcast *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Summer is in full swing, and no one cares about politics (including Congress, who are about to take off for a five week break). But Julie & Brandy are here for it.

It's only been one week since Julie & Brandy went to Descrimmigration Scheww, and the nightmare at America's southern border has spread to 10 major cities, as Trump orders Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) to begin raids on undocumented immigrants in NY, LA, SF, Atlanta, Houston, Baltimore, Miami, Denver, Chicago & New Orleans. The girls chop that up, and then Judge Julie sentences Vice President Mike Pence to life in a border detention facility for being an unkind, insensitive, insincere, FAKE Christian. After that, they get a thoughtful message from Julie's dad regarding the border "concentration camp" controversy. Keep your stress ball nearby, because the girls do a lot of talking in this episode, and (just like the real news) most of what they say is borderline offensive and probably wrong. ******************************************************************************************************************************* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman **** Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** DGP *** Gay Podcast *** Learn more about your ad choices.

This summary was supposed to describe the amazing live podcast that Julie & Brandy did in Wisconsin on Friday, but the audio file was unusable. After spending hours lamenting and crying over the lost show, the girls finally got it together to break down the drama surrounding the new emergency immigration funding bill, and bring back (immigration lawyer) Greg Guarino Jr to break down the humanitarian crisis at the southern border. All that, plus Julie got a butt-load of bday gifts and each one gets a mention! Keep your finger on the 15 second skip button, because this is one you're gonna want to speed through. ******************************************************************************************************************************* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman **** Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** DGP *** Gay Podcast *** Learn more about your ad choices.

The Trump/Iran drama continues on for the 6th (?) week in a row, and Julie & Brandy are annoyed. All they want to do is get high and talk about the upcoming debates, but they can't because Trump is warmongering with Iran as part of his 2020 campaign strategy, so he stopped by Meet the Press to try on a special edition, Chuck Todd merkin. After ripping that interview to shreds, the girls pop on over to see the leading cause of vaginal dryness, Vice President Mike Pence, sit down for an interview with Jake Tapper on CNN. After that, they do an epic Gay Guys & Their Feelings, all about Brexit, which ultimately makes them feel better. Why? Because misery loves company, and the UK is f*cked. ******************************************************************************************************************************* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman **** Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** DGP *** Gay Podcast *** Learn more about your ad choices.

This week marks the 4 year anniversary of Trump's infamous escalator ride announcing his run for President, and the country has been in a living hell ever since. In the last 7 days, Trump lost one more member of his transient cabinet, he fired 3 polling companies employed by his campaign, he threw his chief of staff out of the Oval Office for coughing during an interview with ABC, and he kicked off the official start of his 2020 re-election campaign. That's enough Trump fake news to fill an entire episode, but all Julie & Brandy really care about is the new season of Big Brother, so they eschew their usual dumb gay analysis, so they can have a kiki with Big Brother legend, Evel Dick. Don't stress if you're not familiar with him, he might be a Dick, but he's one captivating motherf*cker, and Julie & Brandy are seriously dead to talk to him. ******************************************************************************************************************************* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman **** Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** DGP *** Gay Podcast *** Learn more about your ad choices.

With DC in their rearview, Julie & Brandy are back in LA, and back to doing the podcast in the solitude of their drug den. There's no live audience to watch them talk about Trump's manufactured Mexican tariff drama, but they manage to ramble on anyway. After that's finally over, Julie takes Brandy to Presidential Nomination Scheww, where she answers the most pressing question of 2019: WHY IOWA? Turns out, the answer to that question is surprising, confusing, & annoying (much like this episode). ******************************************************************************************************************************* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman **** Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** DGP *** Gay Podcast *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Doing Dumb Gay Politics LIVE! in the nation's capital was a milestone for Julie & Brandy, and as such, the girls made the monumental decision to stay sober during the show. They spend a few minutes dissecting Robert Muellers' underwhelming 10 minute press conference, before introducing their special guest for the evening, Democratic warrior & Twitter legend: Scott Dworkin. After that, DGP superfan, Tarvor Lundy, takes the stage to share his handsome, gay feelings about the 2020 candidates; followed by an extremely precedented visit from First Lady, Melania Trump. If you can get past the technical snafus and the girls yelling into the microphone, it's really just like any other episode: mediocre. ******************************************************************************************************************************* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

It's Memorial Day, and Julie & Brandy are filled with rage from doing the 7 day- GM Diet. Their hatred for Facebook and general disdain for Social Media permeates the episode, starting with the Trump/Nance Pelose infrastructure standoff. Then, it's the bullshit of Brexit which led to the Prime Minister of England finally resigning, before finishing it off with the deadly douchecapades happening on top of Mount Everest. It's an extra-long episode and by the end of it, the girls are definitely HANGRY. ******************************************************************************************************************************* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Jet-lag on fleek, Julie & Brandy can barely get it together to discuss Trump's twitter feud with Iran. Luckily, their sisty/bestie Jonny McGovern stops by the drug den to answer some gay questions, and that raises the bar substantially. He weighs in on the 2020 candidates, abortion, and the issues that matter most to him. Julie follows it up with an uplifting 'So There's That,' but without Jonny, this episode would be a steaming pile of sh*t. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************ Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics ******* Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Julie and Brandy are back from Asia, just in time to throw their suitcases down and record another podcast! Still bloated from too much Japanese whiskey and soy sauce, the girls do their best to cobble together a cohesive explanation for the current trade war with China, the North Korean missile tests, and Trump foreshadowing a war with Iran! It's riveting stuff, but nothing gets the blood boiling quite like the new trend in state-mandated abortion bans: the Heartbeat Bill. That may not seem like enough to fill up an entire hour and a half, but just like sushi - its more filling than you think. (And it might turn your stomach).************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************ Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics ******* Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

After spending an unplanned month in Asia, Julie & Brandy are finally on their way home... But, first? A 17 hour layover at the Beijing airport! So, the girls decide to rent an hourly "hotel" room in an airport lounge, so they can "relax" and also, do this podcast. China's internet is what one would expect from a communist-type of country, and they nearly got electrocuted from trying to charge their laptops, so the research factor is low on this gem. Despite the obvious challenges, the girls persevere to deliver news on Trump's taxes, Brandy reclaims her time, and Melania even stops by for a moment. This episode is like mystery meat in fried rice, it's kinda good, but also slightly unsettling. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Due to unexpected, unforeseen,and unacceptable travel complications: Julie & Brandy are stranded in Tokyo for the next 9 days. Deciding to make the best of it, the girls celebrate American icon, Joe Biden, finally tossing his hat in the 2020 presidential race AND then they celebrate Japanese icon, Emperor Akihito, abdicating the throne to his son, Prince Naruhito. It's a celebration that Japan hasn't seen for over 200 years, which is just about how long Julie & Brandy have been on this goddamn Asia trip. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Julie & Brandy are still on a gay cruise through Asia. And they are still not sober. Drunk on soup dumplings and Jack Daniels, they do their best to contain their rage over the sh*tstorm of the redacted Mueller Report. After that, they enlist the help of the hilarious (and sober) Brad Loekle, to help them kill 45 minutes of podcast time by going through each of the 2020 candidates. Julie finishes it off with a quick & random 'So There's That,' and they are back to drinking & seeing as much as they can... until next Tuesday. ******************************************************************************************************************************* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Julie & Brandy kick off their epic Asia trip with... WORK! There's nothing like landing in a foreign country, excited to explore, only to realize that the podcast is due and there's work to be done. Staying true to their brand, the girls wait until the last minute, wake up hung over, and then plagiarize most of the podcast from CNN and Rachel Maddow. It's not their best work, but really, at the end of the day: it's all about Pete BuddhaJudge anyway. *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Attorney General Bill Barr is still bogarting the Mueller report, but Julie & Brandy do their best to make a meal out of it. They recap Barr's most recent public statement, before breaking down Trump's alleged ties to the Russian mafia, aka the Russian government. After slogging thru three decades of Trump's history with Russian gangsters, they switch topics to Trump's favorite congressional gangster, Mitch McMconnell. Lamenting the nightmare that America can't wake up from, the girls tell the tale of Mitch McConnell using the "nuclear option" to circumvent democracy and fulfill the Republican agenda of power at all costs. It's all very hopeless, but Julie closes it out with an important message from Meghan McCain, which is just the levity the country needs right now. *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Nursing their hangovers from MuelleritaVille, and still waiting for the Mueller report to be released, Julie & Brandy had nothing to do but kill time (with everyone else), when they stumbled upon all the information they never wanted to know about Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell. Dismantling democracy for over a decade, his political career makes TrumpGate look like an unpaid parking ticket. If you manage to make it to the end of this episode, be prepared to be seriously disturbed, because there's no "So There's That" in the the world, that could possibly make up for the nightmare reign of Mitch McConnell. *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

There couldn't be a better follow-up to the TRUMPGATE episode, than the Mueller Report finally dropping. Except the only person who has been allowed to read Special Council Robert Mueller's final report is the US Attorney General, Bill Barr. He sped-read it in two days, and wrote a 4 page summary that basically says there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. And though Julie & Brandy are confused and horrified (like everyone else), all they can do is have a drink and hope for the best. So, that's just what they do. *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Julie is on a gay cruise through the gulf of Mexico, so that means- it's time for another Dumb Gay Politics evergreen episode!! The Mueller report investigating Trump is about to drop, so the girls decide to breakdown the biggest political scandal in American history: TRUMPGATE. Trumpgate can be divided into 6 specific scandals, which taken on their own, would be enough to sink any Presidency. But Trump has managed to evade punishment for over a year. The audio sucks, and the content is confusing, but if you can manage to make it to the end of this podcast- get ready to have your mind blown. *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the week after Julie & Brandy interviewed an icon, and it shows. They do their best to chop up the sentencing of Trump's former campaign manager, Paul Manifort, before diving into Elizabeth Warren and her pledge to take on the tech monopoly in America. Then Julie honors National Women's Day with a clip featuring Cher & Nancy Pelosi. This episode starts out as ordinary, but the appearance of Nancy Pelosi's arms move it into the extraordinary. *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

This is the first (and only?) installment of the Dumb Gay Politics; Icon Series. Some guests are just so iconic that they require a whole episode dedicated to them, and Bill Browder is one such guest. He's been called Putin's #1 enemy and his name is synonymous with Russian sanctions. In 2012, Bill Browder created and helped to pass the ubiquitous Magnitsky Act, which prevents Russian human rights violators from entering or investing money in the U.S. This conversation can only be classified as "pinnacles" for this podcast, and no matter what side of the aisle you're on, we can certainly all agree that Bill Browder is an American Icon. *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the week after the Austin live show, and the week before the long-awaited Mueller report finally drops. Sitting smack dab in the middle of a whole lot of non-news, Julie & Brandy do their best to squeeze water from a stone. They speculate on the upcoming Mueller report, they speculate on the Trump/Kim Jong Un meeting, they speculate on Michael Cohen's upcoming testimony, they speculate on the democrats running in 2020, and then they lecture the 14 listeners on the dangers (and wonders) of documentaries. It's an episode, so powerful in it's randomness that it can only be met with one response: bye Jamal.******* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Another month, another mediocre live show. But unlike the New Orleans show, this one actually recorded, so up it goes! Instinctively punctual, Julie & Brandy hit Texas just in time for Trump to declare a national emergency on the southern border. After navigating that sh*tstorm, the girls go Off Limits with the legendary Lea Black, and it is epic! A moment with Melania and Ronnie Karam's gay feelings make this Texas Taco verrrry spicy. ******* *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

There is too much overwhelming sh*t going on in the news right now, so Julie & Brandy decided to ignore it all and wait for Beto O'Rourke to announce his run for president in 2020. The announcement never came, but the girls dodged the salacious news bullet (yet again) when they sat down for a kiki with the First Lady of Podcasting, Alison Rosen. They chat about her legendary rise, and eventual fall out, with Adam Carolla, and she shows the girls exactly why she's America's new best friend. From Beto O'Rourke to Alison Rosen, this is one hell of an aspirational episode. *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

Another week, another tell-all book about Trump makes the rounds. This time, a former aide recounts his 500 days working inside the Trump White House with a "Team of Vipers." Julie & Brandy are lazy, so they call on the Dumb Gay Politics resident book-reader, Anne Morris, to do the heavy lifting. But it's not all viper-flavored tea. The girls also dissect the confusing catastrophe of Virginia Governor, Ralph Northam, and Judge Julie stops by to sentence Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz to several seats. It's not the greatest episode of all time, but it's guaranteed to be more interesting than the Super Bowl. *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** Learn more about your ad choices.

It's still the first month of Scrunchie19, and Julie & Brandy are already exhausted. Channeling the big d*ck energy of Nance Pelose, the girls muster just enough brain power to break down the new terms of the government shut down. After that, they take a master class in Savagery from the master himself, Dan Savage. It all wraps up with a very random 'So There's That' about a savvy school superintendent who's a hero and a criminal and a martyr and a role model. All in all, the perfect way to say sayonara to January 2019. ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy ****** www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** www.julieandbrandy.com ***** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** The People's Couch Learn more about your ad choices.

Still hung over from their live show in New Orleans, Julie & Brandy crapped out this episode with little (to no) preparation. They recap their crazy weekend and give an update on the longest government shutdown in history, before sitting down to a stilted conversation with a gay republican. The girls do their best, but the combination of withdrawals and apathy make for one bland gumbo. ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy ****** www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** www.julieandbrandy.com ***** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard **** The People's Couch Learn more about your ad choices.

Dreams came true for Julie & Brandy when they got the opportunity to interview comedy legend, Tom Arnold. He's made it his mission to expose Donald Trump and he tells the girls all about his misadventures along the way. From brawling with Mark Burnett (in self-defense) to exposing a pedophile, Tom Arnold's tireless quest for justice is not only hilarious, it's inspiring. If you're not already a fan, you will be after this interview. There's a reason he's the undisputed king of the bromance.

It's the first, official Dumb Gay Politics of 2019 and Julie & Brandy are serving it. They start off with the sh*tstorm of the government shut down, before heading over to Democracy Street to celebrate the brand new, democrat-ruled House of Representatives and the newly anointed Speaker of the House, Nanc Pelos. After that, Brandy reclaims her time and rambles unpoetically about her most-favoritest person ever (other than Obama), Elizabeth Warren. It's only the second week of Scrunchie-Nineteen, and the moonstone crystal's vag energy is already killing the game. ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy ****** www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** www.julieandbrandy.com ***** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the first day of 2019, and Julie & Brandy are hung over from an overdose of crystals, rituals, & intentions. They tell the story of receiving a box of healing crystals from a mystery listener, and spending New Years Eve cleansing their energy and manifesting prosperity. After that, they say goodbye to 2018 by revisiting their two favorite interviews of the year: Sarah Silverman & Anthony Scaramucci. Half-new and half-recycled, this episode is a lot like New Years Eve: pretty predictable. ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy ****** www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** www.julieandbrandy.com ***** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

It's that time of year again, and Julie and Brandy are their usual scroogey selves. They spend a half hour thanking the frans who sent pics for the drug den bulletin board, and reveling in general holiday f*ckery. After that, Julie takes Brandy to (recycled) Christmas and Hanukkah Scheww. In a perfect world, it's supposed to be educational fun for the whole family, but like the holidays, it's just a clusterf*ck. ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy ****** www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** www.julieandbrandy.com ***** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

After many weeks of deliberation, consternation, and threats of cancelling, Julie & Brandy finally did their live podcast taping in Seattle! They fought through microphone snafus and 12 weeks of sobriety to deliver a reimagined version of the opening song, a poorly prepared sh*tstorm, and a pretty awesome interview with a pretty awesome Washington State Senator. Throw in a gay producer's feelings, and a moment with Melania and you've get one hell of a random show, but stick around to the very end because you don't want to miss the audience cheering for the iconic Linda James as Sweet Transvestite. ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy ****** www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** www.julieandbrandy.com ***** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

There wasn't much "real news" this week, so Julie and Brandy did what they do best: celebrated themselves (via cards from their 14 listeners). After a solid half hour of self-appreciation, the girls finally get around to the speculation sh*tstorm of the Michael Cohen court filings. After that, they chop up some more fake news and more speculation over who will replace White House Chief of Staff, John Kelly, when he steps down at the end of the year. Listen at your own risk: this is an hour of your life that you'll never get back. ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy ****** www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** www.julieandbrandy.com ***** Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the two year anniversary of Dumb Gay Politics and Julie & Brandy are giving it to you just like they did on the very first episode on December 6, 2016: sober, dumb, and gay. It's been a long road to nowhere, and the girls start out by thanking their 14 listeners for sticking with them on this Trumpian journey. After that, they chop up the sh*tstorm of the G20 summit and give George HW Bush the oh-Bitch-uary that he deserves. And even a So There's That starring Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau can't make this anniversary episode more interesting than a mystery fart on Meet the Press. Oh well. They can't all be winners. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the Monday after Thanksgiving and Julie & Brandy's gratitude is at an all time high, and that's because: SOMEONE FARTED ON MEET THE PRESS. They don't know who was responsible for the fart that keeps on giving, but that doesn't take away from their utter enjoyment of it. After doing a deep dive on the the flatulence history of Meet the Press, Judge Julie stops by to school the 14 listeners on the deity of gender equality: Ruth Bader Ginsburg. After that, some gay feelings from Julie's straight brother Adam round out the episode that is sure to win a Pulitzer Prize for Journalistic Achievement. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

It's Thanksgiving, so Julie & Brandy start off the episode by being veeeerrrrry thankful to all the listeners who sent them gift boxes and cards this week. After that, they regurgitate Thanksgiving Scheww from last year's episode. Why? Because no matter how many times they are told the history of Thanksgiving, they still don't remember it. Despite the recycled segment, the girls are filled with gratitude, sobriety and rage as they list off the biggest Turkeys of 2018. Just like Thanksgiving dinner, this episode goes from thankful to bitchy before it's even half over, and you'll definitely need a nap when it's finally done. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

Everyone in America has been preparing for this day for the last two years, and Julie & Brandy are no exception And though it's finally Election Day, there won't be any news until the votes are counted. So the girls do what all the best journalists do on Election Day before the results come in: they yell at people to go vote! But don't worry, it's not just that. In between badgering their 14 listeners to vote democrat, they play clips, speeches, and crazy campaign ads from some of the most notable midterm races. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the day before Halloween, so Julie & Brandy celebrate by telling scary, true stories! After thanking their 14 listeners for all the Balltober gifts, the girls tell a spine-chilling tale about some very unhinged Facebook creatures. After that, the horrors continue in the eye of the sh*tstorm, which is a saga about a psychopath who mailed homemade bombs to powerful democrats. Then, the fear is real, as the girls discuss the upcoming midterm elections and the horrifying prospect of republicans maintaining the majority. Find a campfire, or a flashlight under a sheet, because these hair-raising tales require mood lighting. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

Julie & Brandy pre-recorded this lazy delight from a cruise ship off the coast of Mexico. But no matter how far away from America they sail, it's never too far to talk about the sh*tstorm of Russian trolls on Facebook. But it's not all Facebook shade, they also go Off Limits with international drag sensation, LA Voix, and then answer a gay question from one of their 14 listeners. You'll want to listen to this one lying down, because that's the way the girls recorded it. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

Julie and Brandy are still celebrating Ball-Tober, and the ball snacks haven't stopped coming! The girls thank all the generous listeners for sending them treats, before announcing their new (and improved) Patreon goal. The excitement doesn't stop there, because Elizabeth Warren announced that she would consider running for president and the girls LOST THEIR DAMN MINDS. After that, Danny Pellegrino stops by to take take the girls to View Scheww, which Julie follows up with a very lazy So There's That. Hopefully this isn't anyone's first taste of DGP, because the whole episode is random AF. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

Another week, another Trump-induced, American nightmare. Accused gang-rapist & devout Christian, Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed to the Supreme Court on Friday, thanks to Republican Senator Susan Collins. After Julie & Brandy rip Senator Collins (and her home state of Maine) a new a$$hole, they move on to the latest member of Trump's cabinet to bite the dust: UN Ambassador, Nikki Haley. After that, First Lady Melania Trump stops by to explain her bizarre fashion choices on her trip to Africa, and a special So There's That all about Taylor Swift. It's all ladies on this week's episode, just the way Brett Kavanaugh likes it. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

It's all Kavanaugh, all day, on today's episode. Julie & Brandy are deep in their anger feelings, and nothing hits their rage spot quite like Trump's racist nominee for the Supreme Court, alleged gang-rapist, Brett Kavanaugh. The girls recap last week's dramatic congressional hearing, before catching everyone up to speed on the FBI investigation and the Republican senators who are still undecided. Even Julie's 'So There's That' is perfectly Kavanaugh-wful. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, Julie & Brandy are punchy from their sober feelings, and Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh's alleged gang-bang past isn't helping to calm them down. They rage in defense of all the drunk young girls who have ever been taken advantage of by privileged, horny, white boys, before turning their attention to the tragedy of Cynthia Nixon's pummeling in the democratic primary for New York Governor. After that, they turn the douchecapades of Tiger Woods into an inspirational story and give you the most surprising and random So There's That in Dumb Gay Politics history. But don't get too excited, the episode sounds better on paper than it really is. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

It was a slow week in politics, so (per usz) Julie & Brandy phoned this one in. They start out with the story of Trump's former campaign manager Paul Manafort agreeing to cooperate with the Special Council investigation in return for a plea deal. After that, the girls talk about Hurricane Florence & the News Machine, and then Judge Julie makes an appearance in order to sentence the world's worst Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh (spoiler alert: she finds him guilty of everything). *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

There's a lot of anonymous, gay drama coming out of the White House this week, and Julie and Brandy are here to break it all down. Between the New York Times op-ed and Bob Woodward's new book, there's no shortage of anonymous sources lining up to talk sh*t on Trump. All that, plus the douchebag that's about to end up on the Supreme Court and it's shaping up to be a pretty, crappy week for America. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

Pretending to celebrate Labor Day with absolutely zero enthusiasm, Julie & Brandy slog their way through this week's podcast. First, they talk about Trump's stinky pick for the Supreme Court, Brett Kavanaugh and then head over to Primary Street to break down the most culturally relevant races coming up in November's Midterm elections. The girls gave it a solid try, but even all of the generous Patreon gifts they received this week, weren't enough to save this episode. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

Julie and Brandy are still floating on a giant, gay boat in the middle of the Mediterranean sea, but the podcast must go on! The Paul Manafort verdict is a small appetizer to the main course of Erin Gibson and her new book "Feminasty: The Complicated Women's Guide to Surviving the Patriarchy Without Drinking Herself to Death." The episode is long, but those who make it to the end will wonder what the f*ck it was even about. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

Julie and Brandy are on a Roman Holiday, but they still managed to sh*t out this episode with a little help from their good friend, Anne Morris. Anne read Omarosa Manigault Newman's new book, 'Unhinged' in 2 days, and she spills all the rancid tea for the 14 listeners. Bookending that, the girls squeeze in a sh*tstorm about America's #1 race-baiter, Laura Ingraham, and a So There's That about statues. If it weren't for Anne, this would be a very unremarkable episode. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.

A day late and a dollar short, be prepared to be very underwhelmed by this episode. Julie & Brandy have been on a cleanse and off alcohol for 2 weeks, but that doesn't mean they have their sh*t together. They considered not even bothering with this week at all, but crazy-ass Omorosa Manigault Newman saved the day with her secret White House tapes. The girls break down the tapes and the racist misogyny of the Trump Administration, before spending a very special Moment with Melania and a very Judge Julie-esque So There's That. *********** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics www.julieandbrandy.com Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard Learn more about your ad choices.
