    It probably will, but depending on your TV habits, it could wind up being a much better service.

    I guarantee he's going to try to make some money on the situation. It probably won't work, but he will try.

    They addressed that in the episode, but it's not as simple as "he's wrong". Also, most of the critics had a stake in conservation in one way or another.

    There was an interesting episode of Freakonomics radio on the fact that all the "green building" regulations that California put in place that were projected to reduce energy use by 80% basically reduced it by 0%. They hadn't proven it conclusively, but the theory was that if it's more...

    Better Call Saul

    Yeah, this. He's not just going to turn them in to the cops. I don't know if he's going to represent them since he called the other lawyers to meet him, but he's looking to take advantage of the situation in some way that he wouldn't be able to do if he just handed them over to the cops.

    Starting a public access television talk show

    If you did it as a YouTube show or a podcast there would be at least a remote chance that someone would watch it.

    BTW, the champion of blowing your pro sports riches was Curt Schilling. He lost $50 Million of his own money and like $100 Million that was loaned to him by the state of Rhode Island trying to make video games and THEN he got cancer.

    Yeah, and that's not everything. If you make 10 million, start by sending half of it to the government. Then send a chunk to your agent. Now with what you have left you're living in a culture where you're expected to party like a rich guy, live in a swanky house, give money to charity, drive...

    I suggest checking out the 30 for 30 documentary "Broke". It's a real eye opener and it will make you understand that most of these guys are not all that rich and they are certainly not set for life at least in the vast majority of cases.

    So my daughter comes home from school crying. Send in the big brother?

    I would be worried in this day and age. If kids can get expelled for bringing chocolate guns to school I wouldn't have the nerve to have my kid threatening some 5th graders at the school even though it would probably work and would be the proper American thing to do.

    I hate to admit it but I like Gold Rush. I have a thing for entrepreneurs and heavy machinery and that show has both. Alaskan Bush People is without a doubt designed for the Duck Dynasty audience. I watched 2 episodes because it came on after Gold Rush and it is exactly the same thing. Laugh...

    Is Brian Williams telling "tall tales" a big deal?

    I have no opinion on Brian Williams as a newscaster as I have never watched his show, but who in the hell makes up a story about being in a helicopter that is shot down? That seems ridiculously easy to fact check by anyone that has a beef with you. The guy is either stupid or a sociopath or...

    The Daily Show with Trevor Noah

    I never got Craig Ferguson. To be fair I only watched a few episodes, but he just seemed more silly than funny to me. It is hard to imagine anyone taking Stewart's place though. That was *his* show and I always liked him because even though he was obviously liberal, he wasn't scared to give...

    Yup. See also Russell Wilson in Seattle, Colin Kaepernick in San Francisco, Joe Flacco in Baltimore, Cam Newton in Carolina, Andy Dalton in Cincinatti, etc. If you have a passable quarterback you pretty much have to pay him like a star because there are so few of them around.

    Is Brian Williams telling "tall tales" a big deal?

    I'm shocked to find out there's anyone under 60 watching the NBC Nightly news. I didn't know it was still on. I'm sure I haven't seen it since I was a kid and it meant the end of after school cartoons.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    This. They are "fairly effective" methods of birth control. If you are a married couple and getting pregnant wouldn't be the end of the world to you, it's an option that works most of the time, especially the two in conjunction, and it has no unpleasant side effects (unless you beat the odds...

    Yeah, I couldn't find the study I saw but wikipedia lists condoms at 2% failure rate and coitus interruptus at 4%. I could swear that the study I saw the other day showed them being equal but in any case, the pull out method is not a ridiculous plan. The downside is that you have to have...

    As others have said, the question in Denver is not "Is Peyton as good as he used to be?" but "Is he better than whoever we can get to replace him?". The answer to the second question is obviously yes. They brought in a ton of big name veterans last year to make a SB run with him and they are...

    Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

    I had high hopes for Larry Wilmore's panel discussions because I have always wanted to watch Bill Maher's show without Bill Maher on it. So far they have not delivered though. The segment is too short and it sort of seems like he wants it to be always mostly black people which severely limits...

    I drink a lot of zinfandel just because for whatever reason it's usually very drinkable even below $10 a bottle. Gnarly Head Old Vine Zin is like $8 a Walmart and it's really not bad at all while some of the other stuff in that price range is horrible.

    Come on guys, if there's anything to be learned from all this it's that all pro athletes are willing to cheat a little to get an edge. You punish them if they get caught and move on. Putting an asterisk in the record book is retarded because everyone else was likely doing the same thing at the...

    I would say try to make friends with someone who hunts and ask if they can teach you.

    I am around tons of hunters and at least around here if they say venison they mean deer. Elk meat is usually just referred to as "elk". Elk tastes way better than deer so calling it all venison is a disservice to elk.
