In segment one, Barry Lynn interviews NYC comic Irene Bremis who happens to be a  kickboxer. Her comedy is what she politely refers to as "comedy noir". Accused of being "unlady like," Irene retorts with "my mother didn't raise me to be polite, she raised me to be right! I ain't no lady but I'm a hellava gal!  "She is dauntless with a flair for rebellion which she attributes to being a sagittarius. Her comedy is a compellation of her Greek upbringing with an autistic brother, political & topical satire, gossip, rants, very intimate details of her personal life and everyday observational humor. If you're thinking it...she says it, AND gets away with it.
Irene performs regularly at comedy clubs in the New York area and has been featured on Tru TV. She is a regular co-host of John Fuegelsang's "Tell Me Everything" on Sirius/XM (Channel 121) and does her own broadcast "Scuttle Butt" on BBOX Radio Tuesdays from 6:30-7:30 (and found on "Tune In").  She will be taping a show with John Fuegelsang at the Duplex Theater on November 28 at 7pm.

In segment one, Barry and Irene explore the results of the midterm elections, including their favorite victors and losers as well as the longterm effect on the Trump agenda.

In segment two, Barry Lynn interviews Rev. Dr. Debra W. Haffner. Debra is president emeritas of the Religious Institute Inc. She is a sexologist and ordained minister. Haffner retired from the Religious Institute on April 30, 2016.

They discuss her award-winning books include FROM DIAPERS TO DATING and BEYOND THE BIG TALK (that Barry thinks are better than the seminal works of Dr. Benjamin Spock).
They also review the midterm elections, how to handle disappointments if your candidate lost, and why the new landscape of the House is so important.  They also look at the #Me Too movement and the state of sex education in public schools today.
