Also the new DNC chair, twitter wars and Oscar flubs! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

FRIDAY WITH FRITZ is a new and occasional addition to FritzCast. Friday With Fritz will typically be a smaller episode, and more focused on one or two topics rather than tackling a whole weeks worth of information. IN THIS Friday With Fritz: How many Executive Order's do you think President Trump has signed? You may think he has signed many, but the news has been slightly misleading. I specifically look over the current Presidential Executive Orders and Memorandums.MONDAY will bring an episode that looks at the difference between Executive Order and Memorandum. If you'd like your thoughts shared on Monday's programs, comment on this track, Tweet @FritzQS, Post on the FaceBook page (https://www.facebook.com/TheFritzCast/) or e-mail fritzcastpodcast@gmail.com.

Last Friday saw the Inauguration of the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. So far, we have all survived and our rights have yet to mystically disappear.

In this episode:Looking over an "alleged hate crime," I found myself asking why weren't more people talking about this incident and why did anything else matter outside of the fact that 4 human beings decided it would be fun to torture one human being (See: http://abcnews.go.com/US/alleged-chicago-hate-crime-streamed-live-facebook/story?id=44596745).I also talked about my INSANE choice for my Public Policy final paper...taxes.

The final 2016 episode!In this edition I recap how my Christmas holiday went, and figuring out another reason why it has become a more favorite time of year for me recently. Then I focus on resolutions, and why I do not much like the practice of New Years Resolutions or the saying "New year, new me!" I also viewed Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and speak about it spoiler-free. A future episode will encompass more in-depth talk about the state of the Star Wars Universe under the banner of Disney.

IN THIS EPISODE:Fritzcast airs the first, mostly non-political oriented episode! Rather than pick apart the President-Elect, Cabinet member choices, or look at whatever policy issues that are under a microscope, I just talk about some Christmas things, including childhood memories, my love of Christmas decorating and my growing collection of unique Christmas stuffs. I even talk about an article I wrote on it and posted to my LinkedIn account (SEE: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/spirit-decorating-christmas-fritz-stephey)I also talk a little bit about how I'm excited to be going to see Rogue One...because, come on. It's Rogue One!Finally, the only lite, political related note comes in regards to a Commentator I listen to.

In this FULL FLEDGED Episode:I open talking about Christmas Music (The bane of some people's existence, the joy of others). I think, arguably, Frank Sinatra is the best christmas music. Then I talk about my experience for the past three weeks in my Field Training capacity. It truly is a joy to be a part of building up a program that started with little. Finally, Trump and Trump's cabinet...I'm not so optimistic.MUSIC INFORMATION:Wish Background Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensecreativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In this Fritzcast Fritzforward:It's ALL about the Hamilton's, baby! VP-Elect Mike Pence goes to broadway for a viewing of Hamilton, and after the show concludes, Aaron Burr (...ok ok, the guy portraying Aaron Burr) has a message to share. The internet promptly blew up. That's a little insane right? Also, Trump Cabinet proposals, such as Mitt Romney, and finally, Bernie Sanders tells the DNC to wake up. ENJOY!

In this edition: I open with BATTLEFIELD 1, the greatest all out war sim / shooter this year. Then, straight into our topics for this week. An overview of the FINAL (YAY!) Presidential Debate this year and the outstanding job by Chris Wallace. A couple of keys I focus on from the debate? Supreme Court, and the Second Amendment.

IN THIS EPISODE: I hope you are ready for the 3rd and final debate, which will pit Hillary Clinton against Donald Trump, again leaving out third party voices. I open talking about my first week using solar energy and why I am loving every bit of it (hint: it's not so I can be preachy and talk about how I am saving the world, because I'm not.) I then cover Donald Trump's poll numbers, the attitude of die-hard Trump supporters towards the GOP members turning their backs on Trump and the dangerous outcome it could have for the Republican Party. Then, on to the debates...why are we basing inclusion criteria on polls that ask who you are supporting or voting for, when the whole idea behind debates is to win over a voting body?
