2025-10-04: New and Shiny

On this week's Curmudgeon's Corner Ivan and Sam talk about the US government shutdown, as well as Trump and Hegseth's speeches to the Generals and Admirals along with related issues. But before that, health and travel updates, and a discussion of a movie about homelessness. And that be that!
