00:00 Introductions 00:43 Trump Merch 07:36 Exploding Pagers 18:44 Racism in Oklahoma 25:43 Elon Musk 29:55 Meghan Markel —Chris Stiffler joins the Idiots this week. —Trump Merch. nathan admits right up front that he was scared. For a while, Trump was on fire. NFTs, Gold Shoes, Bobbleheads… the merch was hilarious, and original. Then, there was a dip in quality. An ugly t-shirt with what SHOULD be the most iconic picture of all time.  A commemorative coin. *yawn* But then, boom! He's back, baby! Trump is getting into crypto! It's the swindle we all needed—a fallacy being sold by a grifter. God bless America. —Oh man… Israel did the most awesomeness, amazeballs thing of all time: they disrupted a supply chain for Hezbollah, put explosives into pagers, and then got paid by Hezbollah for those pagers… Which were, of course, mini bombs that blew up and killed and injured Hezbollah terrorists. How insane is that? Even Michael Bay couldn't dream that up. (Also: Ukraine gettin frisky in Russia. Good on them for blowing up munitions depots.) —Just how stupid are teenage boys? Ask the kids in Tishomingo, Oklahoma. Those knuckleheads decided to spell out the N-word on their shirts, and then take a photo of it. When has this ever ended well for those involved? Well, it's going to haunt them for quite a while, and deservedly so. —Wealthy investors in Tesla are angry. Angry!  (Exclamation point.) Elon may sell off Tesla stock to cover his Twitter losses, which would devalue said stock. Elon doesn't care, because it's all found money to him, but to actual investors, it means something. —The world's worst princess (Duchess?) is in the news again, because she's (apparently) a meanie. Great? Who cares? Why does she matter in the slightest? Idiots on Parade: we mock the news, so you don't have to. Tune in and get your giggle on.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Mikayla Lane over Zoom video.Seventeen-year-old Mikayla Lane recently released her new song, “Ambush”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlAjbpQNCC4Written by Mikayla and John Conrad and produced by Jimmy Ritchey (Jake Owen, Clay Walker, Mark Chestnutt), "Ambush" brings a spunky, cowgirl-themed tale of unexpected love on the range and offers up a western-esque vibe. Mikayla Lane is ambitious and driven--traits branded by her upbringing, lifestyle, personality and passions. With heart, vision and talent beyond her years, she knows what she wants and she is determined to chase her dream; her pursuit began early on. Mikayla was just 13 when she earned a spot on Blake Shelton's OIe Red talent roster, which originated in Shelton's hometown of Tishomingo, Oklahoma and Mikayla's home state. She has become a staple at the venue in Tishomingo and has appeared on the Ole Red stages in Nashville, Gatlinburg and Orlando. The country music starlet has become a “fan-favorite” at a variety of notable venues, including Cain's Ballroom in Tulsa where she opened for Jon Wolfe. She is the venue's youngest supporting act to date. The songstress has written and co-produced a catalog of original tunes. As a tween, Mikayla recorded and released her debut EP, Rooftop Nights, and has since released seven studio recordings. She co-wrote and co-produced the single “Superman,” recorded in her bedroom and now approaching 80,000 streams, along with the corresponding music video, which premiered on CMT.com in October 2020. Mikayla also co-wrote and co-produced the single, “Drive” in 2021 and the track catapulted to the Top 10 on Spotify's New Music Nashville. In September 2021, Mikayla introduced her sophomore recording project, Miles From Nowhere, featuring four originals that embrace her western lifestyle. In keeping with family tradition and their mutual passion for rodeo and the lifestyle, Mikayla was recently named as the official spokesperson for the nation's largest youth rodeo, the Vegas Tuffest Junior World Championship.We want to hear from you!

On this episode I chatted with Governor Bill Anoatubby. He was inducted into the Oklahoma Hall of Fame in 2004 and a fun fact. When Governor Anoatubby took office in 1987, the Chickasaw Nation included 250 employees and an $11 million operating budget. Twenty years later the tribe included nearly 4,500 employees and an annual budget approaching $300 million.  Governor Bill Anoatubby grew up in Tishomingo where he attended Tishomingo High School, playing on the football team and graduating in 1964. He attended Murray State College and graduated from East Central State College (now East Central University) in 1972 before serving in the Oklahoma Army National Guard. He began working for the Chickasaw Nation as director of tribal health services in 1975, becoming Lieutenant Governor in 1979 and Governor in 1987. Anoatubby has been instrumental in the development of numerous businesses owned and operated by the Chickasaw Nation and under his leadership the tribe was the first to successfully compact for its own health system. Anoatubby became a member and leader of the inter-tribal council of the Five Civilized Tribes since 1978, remaining active in a wide range of organizations including the Oklahoma Indian Affairs Commission, Trail of Tears National Historic Trail Advisory Committee of the U.S. Department of Interior, Leadership Oklahoma, and the Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence. He is also the longtime chairman of the Native American Cultural and Educational Authority.

"Today on our journey up the Natchez Trace Parkway from Natchez, Mississippi to Nashville, Tennessee we are crossing the Tennessee River at the JOHN COFFEE MEMORIAL BRIDGE. "John Coffee was an old Indian fighting buddy of Andrew Jackson and one of Jackson's Generals who fought with him against the British at the Battle of New Orleans in 1815.  Coffee was chosen by Jackson to negotiate for the United States with the Choctaw at Dancing Rabbit Creek in 1830 and with the Chickasaw at Pontotoc Creek in 1832. In both cases Coffee was successful in getting the Indians to give up all their tribal lands to the United States. These negotiations resulted in later banishment of the Indians from their ancestral home to lands West of the Mississippi during the painful Indian Removal that has come to be known as the Trail of Tears. In 1839, along this infamous trail to exile the Chickasaw Indian Chief, Tishomingo, died of smallpox before reaching the new lands in Oklahoma. This old respected leader of the Chickasaw Indians was buried west of Little Rock, Arkansas near Fort Coffee. "Join us next time when we will visit ROCK SPRING.

"TISHOMINGO is the Chickasaw Indian name meaning WARRIOR CHIEF. Today we visit TISHOMINGO STATE PARK along the Natchez Trace Parkway about 6 mile before it leaves Mississippi and crosses into Alabama. The park, county and nearby town are all named for the last great war chief of the Chickasaw Indian Nation, Chief Tishomingo. "The land in this scenic state park was Tishomingo's favorite hunting ground, and saddle back ridge was his favorite spot, where he spent many hours riding young white children on his spotted red horse and telling them stories of his many battles. He fought with Gen. Wayne in the Revolutionary War against the British and later along side Andrew Jackson. "He fought with his tribesmen in the war against the Creek Indians 1793-1795, and was a great warrior in the Chickasaws victorious last war against the Cherokee. Tishomingo was the Chickasaw advisor and leader in the Treaty of Pontotoc in 1832 that resulted in the Chickasaw removal to west of the Mississippi. He felt the pain of his tribe in leaving their home land. Tishomingo's favorite spot in the world was here, and when he was more than 100 years old, he gave it up, left never to return. Tishomingo died on the journey to exile with his people. "Join us next time when we will visit Cave Spring. For Natchez Trace a road through the wilderness, I'm Frank Thomas."
