Curmudgeon's Corner

2020-10-16: There Is No Table


Listen Later

This week on Curmudgeon's Corner, Sam and Ivan hit all the usual politics stuff you would expect. Updates on polling. Hunter's laptop. Social media battling misinformation. The dueling town halls. SCOTUS. The pandemic. All of that sort of thing. But before that, they also talk a bit about the new iPhones, just being exhausted, and an old movie. So, pretty much your normal month before the election type of show. Enjoy!
