Boxed Wine | 442

The Boomer Bunker kicks off with the Duchess fresh off seeing Rush live — no Neil Peart, a new female drummer named Anika, a still-got-it (mostly) Geddy Lee, and a $100+ concession bill for two baskets of chicken tenders and a couple of drinks. From there, John and the Duchess tear into the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, roasting the wave of "wine mom" true-crime detectives on TikTok who've decided — based on astrology charts and eclipse timing- that the husband did it. John also brings the receipts on a real screaming match he had with his AI research assistant Claudia over the Stop Nick Shirley Act and the Minneapolis ICE shooting, accusing her of feeding him left-leaning sourcing.

Then it's straight into Jersey's new "Skip the Stuff" law, which bans restaurants from automatically handing out plastic forks, knives, and napkins — and sets up a snitch system for anyone caught giving them out anyway. John connects it to Governor Murphy's outgoing budget mess and gets into a full plastic-bag-ban rant for good measure. Add in Gavin Newsom quietly signing a law nicknamed after journalist Nick Shirley to shield fraud investigators from public records requests, four unprepared 18-year-olds who had to get rescued off a New Hampshire mountain, and two women who each got caught with contraband hidden in a body cavity during jail intake — one with $3,200 in cash, one with a full bottle of Pinot Grigio — and this episode does not slow down.
