  • It's Never "What." It's ALWAYS "Who."

    It's Never "What." It's ALWAYS "Who."

    Welcome to What the Frock?, the podcast where current events meet common sense, and occasionally get audited by artificial intelligence. This week we cover a little light material, including presidential war powers, selective political outrage, international air defenses, and whether your emergency room visit secretly financed new hospital drapes. You know, the usual Sunday conversation. We begin with the War Powers Act of 1973 and the timeless American tradition of loving executive authority when your team holds it and denouncing it when the other team does. Somehow, every president questions the constitutionality of the law while also using it. It is a bipartisan magic trick. Then we shift to something even more unsettling: Dave’s ER bill. After a two-minute consultation and one warm blanket, the invoice arrived with the enthusiasm of a small mortgage. Enter ChatGPT, which calmly suggested strategy over outrage. The machines are not taking over the world yet, but they may be coming for hospital billing departments. We also touch on budget chaos in Washington State, a legislator who may have personally tested the DUI threshold debate, and why “it was bots” is the new political defense strategy. All that, plus music, sarcasm, and just enough skepticism to keep things interesting.

  • The Cork Expedition - Old Mother Covington Part II)

    The Cork Expedition - Old Mother Covington Part II)
    2026/02/25
    Last time, we stood at Moore’s Creek Bridge and listened to Old Mother Covington speak. In three violent minutes, a Loyalist rising collapsed and Governor Josiah Martin’s promise of ten thousand men dissolved into smoke and swamp water. But that battle was only half the story. Three thousand miles away, in Cork, Ireland, the British Empire was assembling the force that was supposed to make Moore’s Creek irrelevant. Seven regiments. Artillery. Royal confidence. This was the hammer meant to fall in coordination with that uprising and split the colonies in half. On paper, it looked elegant. Cheap victory. Minimal commitment. Maximum effect. Instead, Cork became a lesson in delay, delusion, and the dangers of believing your own optimism. Recruiting faltered. Ships were scarce. Deadlines slipped from December to January to February. When the fleet finally sailed, it ran straight into the wrath of the Atlantic. Storms scattered the convoy. Transports sank. Soldiers drowned before they ever saw America. This episode is the other side of Moore’s Creek. The British side. The paper army. The missed signals. The pride that refused to turn back. Old Mother Covington did not win the war that morning. But Cork made sure Britain never had the chance.

    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.
