Alise and Bryan are back to talk about all the crazy sh*t that’s happening in the news. For what’s getting them through the week, Bryan shares the significance of Lil Nas X’s Grammy showing and Alise covers some very democratic sheet cakes. For the Main News, we look at (maybe?) the final days of the Senate impeachment trial. Are Trump’s lawyers actually arguing he’s allowed to corrupt his own election? They also get real about the chances we’ll actually hear from witnesses in the trial and why John Bolton isn’t our hero. For one more thing, they run through what to expect after Brexit finally goes down for real this week. From pet passports to pensions, here’s what Brits can expect before the divorce is final later this year. Finally, Bryan is joined by Marti G. Cummings, candidate for New York City Council, to talk about queer representation in local politics and potentially becoming the city’s first non-binary councilperson ever.
