David & Stu... Unhinged!

Auteur(s): David & Stu
  • Résumé

  • “David & Stu . . . Unhinged!” offers a unique glimpse into the world's most pressing (and most trivial) issues through the eyes of two of Greenwich Village’s jaded residents, who are usually pissed off about something. From allowing people to legally sh** on our sidewalks to "discrimination" against fat people, David Simonetti, a writer and attorney, and Stu Richel, a critically acclaimed actor, screenwriter, and Vietnam War vet, offer an acerbic yet civilized perspective on politics and life in New York City. Occasionally veering into the abyss of rage, like Stu's unbridled contempt for Jane Fonda and David's rage about those who ask for ice cream samples, the duo from two different generations will enchant you with their common-sense reactions speckled with off-the-rails humor, anger, and dismay.

  • Penny's from Heaven, the Gaza Riviera and other MAGA Nonsense & Musk's Team of Neophytes
    Feb 16 2025

    Welcome to episode thirty-three of David & Stu… Unhinged! As always, we'd like to thank Clara Wang for creating the fantastic artwork for this podcast. In this episode, David and Stu cover the following:

    1) The good news is that Daniel Penny, a hero who saved subway riders from violence and who was unfairly prosecuted by Manhattan DA Bragg, found a job and the start of a career;

    2) Trump's preposterous proposal to turn Gaza into a US-operated resort called the Gaza Riviera and how his supporters seem to think every absurd pronouncement he makes is an act of genius, including his imperialist impulses to rename things like the Gulf of Mexico; and


    3) How Elon Musk's team at DOGE is staffed with 19-25-year-olds with no government experience yet given access to sensitive national security information, the troubling conflicts of interest, the plethora of court rulings blocking this insane overreach, and the hapless Democrat opposition. We also discuss how the new US Attorney in DC, Ed Martin, plans to prosecute anyone who impedes DOGE, yet that's not even a crime.

  • 32: Subway Sanitation, Hochul's Reparation Folly, Albany's Criminal Coddling Democrats, NYU-Langone's Transgender Kerfuffle & Musk's Dangerous Takeover of Treasury's Payment Systems.
    Feb 9 2025

    Welcome to episode thirty-two of David & Stu… Unhinged! As always, we'd like to thank Clara Wang for creating the fantastic artwork for this podcast. In this episode, David and Stu cover the following:

    1) Stu's encounter with a young lady on the subway on her way to school clipping her nails but redeeming herself by not littering;

    2) Kathy Hochul's reparation committee and the outrageousness of making any such payments when slavery ended 150 years ago and the victims of which are long dead;


    3) Albany liberals refused to reform NY's criminal justice reform laws even when asked to do so by state district attorneys, including the pro-criminal Manhattan DA, fat Alvin Bragg.


    4) NYU-Langone Medical Center's refusal to perform gender-affirming surgery on minors due to Trump's executive order, which threatens to pull funding of providers performing such procedures; and


    5) Trump's dangerous decision to allow Elon Musk access to US Treasury payment systems could potentially jeopardize our national security and finances since Musk has no legal authority to assume this role or much oversight.

  • 31: Disgrace at the Pentagon, Trump's Surrender to Musk, Not So Sweet Caroline, EPA Antics, & the Spending Freeze Debacle
    Feb 2 2025

    Welcome to episode thirty-one of David & Stu… Unhinged! As always, we'd like to thank Clara Wang for creating the fantastic artwork for this podcast. In this episode, David and Stu cover the following:

    1) How Trump blamed DEI for the tragic plane crash in DC when, in truth, Elon Musk forced the former head of the FAA out on inauguration day, and there was no acting director in place because the FAA had fined Musk's company, SpaceX. We can't understand why Trump would be ceding his presidential duties to Musk and worry that when they fall out, there will be no telling which government Musk will try to run next.

    2) The petty act of removing General Milley's portrait from the Pentagon and stripping him of his security detail and how this wasn't the behavior we expect from the President of the United States;


    3) Caroline Kennedy's scathing condemnation of RFK Jr. and his disastrous performance at his Senate confirmation hearings, where he lied about his stance on vaccines and displayed disturbing ignorance about Medicaid, a program he would be responsible for managing as Secretary of HHS;


    4) The shocking cast of characters Trump has filled the EPA with, including one official who fought for the use of asbestos.


    5) The completely embarrassing executive order and OMB memo freezing spending, which caused Medicaid portals to shut down in all 50 states, disrupting health care delivery, and the backtracking that occurred when the memo had to be rescinded, yet his press secretary insisted the freeze was still in place.
