    DDH - Old Mother Covington
    2026/02/24
    We tend to remember the American Revolution as a clean fight. Patriots in homespun. Redcoats in formation. Muskets cracking across open fields. But that is not how it felt in North Carolina in 1776. Before there was Saratoga. Before there was Yorktown. Before Jefferson put ink to parchment and accused the king of stirring up “domestic insurrections among us,” there was a swamp. A narrow bridge. And neighbors marching against neighbors. Royal Governor Josiah Martin believed he could crush the rebellion from the inside. Ten thousand loyalists would rise. Seven thousand British troops would land. The Carolinas would fall. The Revolution would choke before it ever reached full flame. Instead, in the cold darkness before dawn on February 27, 1776, Highland Scots charged across a greased bridge shouting “King George and broadswords!” What followed lasted three minutes. Three minutes that shattered a royal strategy. Three minutes that hardened a colony. Three minutes that pushed North Carolina to become the first to authorize independence. This is the story of Moore’s Creek Bridge. This is the story behind the grievance. And this is why Old Mother Covington still echoes in the dark.

  • WTF - Miracle on Ice, But Show Your ID

    WTF - Miracle on Ice, But Show Your ID
    2026/02/22
    Good morning, America, and welcome to the only show reckless enough to record live during a playoff-intensity hockey game before most of the country has located its coffee. This week, we hit the microphones at dawn because somewhere in Milan, the schedule makers decided that U.S. versus Canada should be settled at an hour normally reserved for bakers and dairy cows. So yes, the game is on in the background. Yes, it’s chippy. And yes, you may hear spontaneous reactions that are either patriotic or deeply unhealthy. Possibly both. From Olympic controversy and curling drama to tainted gold medals and athletic oversharing, we begin on the ice and then glide straight into the strange modern obsession with identification. Birth certificates. Real ID. The SAVE Act. Politicians who somehow travel internationally while claiming documents are impossible to find. If that sounds improbable, buckle up. Then we detour through Seattle sports economics, millionaire taxes, the ghost of the SuperSonics, and why professional teams flee faster than common sense in an election year. It’s hockey. It’s politics. It’s technology. It’s snow-covered New York streets and two forms of ID. In other words, it’s another perfectly normal episode of What The Frock.

    Delivering Democracy
    2026/02/20
    Before there was a telegraph wire humming across the plains, before railroads stitched steel across the continent, before the internet convinced us that information travels at the speed of light, there was a rider on a muddy road with a leather satchel and a republic in his saddlebag. In this episode, we are talking about the Postal Act of 1792. It sounds bureaucratic. It sounds dry. It sounds like something best left to archivists and footnotes. But here is the truth. This law built the nervous system of the United States. It answered a question that haunted the Founders after the Revolution: how do you keep a large republic from drifting apart? Washington signed it. Madison believed in it. Franklin helped lay the groundwork for it. And Congress embedded within it a bold idea that still shapes us today. Information should circulate freely. News should be affordable. Private correspondence should be protected. The government should connect its people, not spy on them. This was not about delivering parcels. It was about delivering democracy. So settle in. We are going to follow the post roads from Maine to Georgia, out to the frontier, and into the beating heart of a young nation trying to hold itself together.
