There's lots of news on television about the government today.  I guess that's to be expected on Sunday morning.  I've heard the pundits use the term "constitution" repeatedly; at least I have the freedom to change the channel if I want to, I guess. :)
gpt
That is always good.  I find it hard to watch the news these days.  Everything is so slanted, no one just reports facts anymore. 
human
That's so true.   Freedom of the press has taken a strange turn; that leaves the door open for non-profit media like Wikileaks to gain more traction.  Sometimes it's best just to watch tv for entertainment or just turn it off all together.
gpt
I agree.  I cut cable a few years ago so I get news posts via social media.  I truly dont miss it that much.  I do miss watching shows like the Simpsons though
human
*body relaxes* The Simpsons are awesome!  Such good satire.  I thought it was funny when the crew of the Simpsons sent South Park producers flowers after SP skewered Family Guy in one episode.  I'm not a fan of FG, but SP is a guilty pleasure.
gpt
I enjoy some FG, I think it is funny that Simpsons sent flowers.  There is only one episode of the simpsons where bart doesnt appear or gets a mention.  That is crazy.
human
That is crazy.  Especially since they've had over 600 episodes.  It's amazing they can still keep thinking of new ideas.  I guess the same could be said about Pokemon: 750 episodes over 16 years.  
gpt
I know, new pokemon keep coming out.  I was never into the show too much but I play the pokemongo.
human
I can honestly say that I have never seen an episode, but apparently a lot of people must like it.  Did you ever watch That 70's Show?  A lot of people like that, but I never got into that one, either.  
gpt
I didnt get in to that one.  I heard that there was a version made in the UK that failed after to episodes.
human
Apparently that kind of humor didn't translate overseas.  The same might be said of radio programs, I suppose.  In Finland, there's a radio station that broadcasts news in classical Latin.  I don't see that being very popular here in the states.
gpt
I dont know many people fluent in classical Latin.  I took two years in HS and cant remember a bit of it.
human
That's pretty impressive.  I know nothing about it at all.  Who knows, you might be able to decipher a phrase or two still.  Do you listen to the radio a lot?  
gpt
I listen a bit while driving sometimes, but Im more into some podcasts.  I know there is a website where you can listen to classical radio dramas for free.
human
*relaxed posture* That might be interesting.  It might make driving time go by faster if the drama was particularly engaging.  Usually I prefer listening to music to pass the time.  When I was growing up, we only had am radio at home, so I love my satellite radio now.
gpt
Did you ever catch Jupiter's storms on AM radio?  
human
*leans slightly forward* HA!  No I did not, just some baseball games, farm markets, and old school country music.  
gpt
That's cool.  I remember having to switch back from AM to FM to try to get something to listen to that wasnt static.  My has it all changed.
human
Yes, it has.  I've heard that WWII soldiers made makeshift radios from razorblades and pencils. It's crazy to think how important mass communication can be to us. 
gpt
It is crazy.  When TV or internet goes out we dont know what to do.
human
That is so true.  Technology has come a long way and caused us to be a bit dependent.  Thanks for the chat today.  It has been quite enjoyable.
gpt
It has.  Have a good day!
