In this week’s episode, the Supreme Court declares COVID-19 a religion, we give 2019 the roasting it's been deserving this whole time, and Andrew Torrez will be here so I don’t have to do as much prep.

Comments

Katy Hill

The bit at the end where the guys are talking about putting together the chairs had me rolling!

Pterrorsaurus hex

Holy shit! I read Katy's comment before listening and I still wasn't prepared. I had actual tears. I don't if I've identified with Heath so much.

DJA

What happened? Lucinda gave no fucks today.

Religion *is* Politics

The analogy of an organization that calls people up and tells them to kill themselves, in the protection of free speech, is not quite right. It’s not just anybody they’re abusing, it’s primarily the children of certain likeminded parents. If conversion therapy gets enough political pushback, it will be defended on the basis of parental rights, not just free speech rights. The Evangelical constituents are (for now) more focused on abusing their own children than they are on abusing all children, although that won’t stop them from trying to subvert and defund the public school system in the end.

So do we all join the Satanic Temple now to get our rights back? Genuinely no sarcasm here, evidently one has to have a pocket sky wizard here in America. It’s like dark universe Pokemon.

Mister CPU

Congratulations to everyone for the Georgia Campaign fundraiser. Also, I contributed to Modest Needs. Even if the guys haven't caught up on their roasting, the folks at Modest Needs still can use a hand in helping people.

Christopher Dalpe

Here I am in my Hermann Miller Aeron chair. I bought one when this whole thing started. Best purchase I ever made. Recommend the Rollerblade wheels for 50 dollars.

I work in a furniture store. I put together so many office chairs a week. It's been a while since I yelled at my phone.

Mama Andi

hey Eli I work for FedEx hit me up maybe I can help you find that gift.

Peter Kyrouac

Noah is not going to be on the Skeptics in the Pub on Twitch after all. :(

Ann Pollard

I really appreciate you serially reminding everyone that this is the fault of those who voted for Jill Stein. Totally agree. But I'm serious when I say that if you were around in 2000 and voted for Ralph Nader, you share responsibility.

Julie Wine&Reason

As a Tennessee resident, I've come to the conclusion that it's super likely most of us here are going to die. Maybe my statement is slightly hyperbolic, but only slightly.
