Bingham Boys Ron Yengich and John Saltas reminisce about the King Kong-Bingham connection (1930s actress Fay Wray was from Lark, Utah) and the curious ’80s case of dirty SLC cops and their Blue Mouse Theater money stash, then dive into the “unalived” similarities of Marilyn Monroe and Jeffrey Epstein and the power games of the elite, nukes on the White House roof(?), handing out pardons like lollipops, the differences between a pardon, amnesty, commutation, and clemency, Trump firing the messenger (Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Erika McEntarfer), Nancy Pelosi’s neverending Democratic money requests, Utah’s far-below-par migrant arrest numbers, resisting the 1% and authoritarianism and paternalism, salvaging MAGA, the search for a Democratic voice and leader, Eleni Saltas’ weekend fundraiser for Chef José Andrés’ World Central Kitchen food relief fund, and more.
