Did Pete Hegseth Commit War Crimes?

A candid episode on political blame games, personal freedom, and keeping your head in the mix

Aaron is back after Thanksgiving with a laid-back but thoughtful episode that mixes humor, storytelling, and sharp commentary. This is the annual Post-Thanksgiving Wobble Show, where the turkey coma fades and real conversations return. Aaron reflects on holiday gatherings, shifting family dynamics, and the art of talking without trying to win an argument.

He shares how he used to walk into holiday events armed for debate, ready to stir things up, and how age and perspective have softened that instinct. This year, he hopes everyone found some peace among the chaos, even if that meant avoiding the controversial topics altogether.

What We Talk About This Week

The Lost Art of Conversation

Aaron dives into how Americans are losing the ability to discuss ideas without assigning labels. He pushes back against knee-jerk assumptions, pointing out how quickly people decide what someone believes based solely on who they support. He makes the case that disagreement doesn’t have to end dialogue.

Rights, Freedom, and Protecting Each Other

The episode moves into a broader discussion about constitutional rights and why they matter now more than ever. Aaron stresses that freedom of speech, due process, and the right to self-defense are not abstract ideas. They’re tools meant to protect ordinary people from overreach and prevent innocent citizens from being caught in the crossfire of bad policy or slow systems.
