## Resource

The garbage between the between the pro rasslin' tag team, The New Soviets & Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the Oval Office was one of the grossest events I've either seen or read about in 50 years as an American. I also compared JD Vance and Javert from Les Mis and can actually relate to it. Please add your thoughts to maybe be included on an upcoming podcast and give a follow, like and a sub. More where this came from! MY LIFE'S MISSION - The Smitty Learns Irish PubCast. https://www.youtube.com/@SmittyLearnsIrishPubCast In 2026, I'm leaving Michigan for an epic year-long trek through Ireland, telling its story town by town with interviews in pubs. Subscribing to the channel means the world! If you want to support the project on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/c/we3smiths, I'd be beyond grateful! I'm also on the lookout for Irish liaisons to guide me, so hit me up if you're into that! The Smartman Show Podcast W/ Brian & Nate https://shows.acast.com/what-the-hell-everything-with-smitty is also available on Spotify and your favorite platform (Let me know if you can't find it!). This podcast features my great friend Brian Pfiefer, a.k.a. Cartman, and me, Smitty, dubbed "Smartman." We don't think we're geniuses, but we're giving it a shot! Each episode features a couple of segments discussing trending topics, quirky questions about life, and pop culture reviews. My solo podcast is available at the same links as the weekly Smartman Show but will be a bonus, usually featuring me riffing on a story or idea or diving into creative writing and storytelling, so keep an eye out if that's your thing! For more ways to support, including social media for Nate & Brian, check this out. https://linktr.ee/we3smiths Thanks a million for watching! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/priv…
