  • This week’s guest is Jule, our new #Millennial social media manager!

  • Andrew somehow enjoys getting fillings and brags about having a dentist with a freakin' massage chair.

  • "Pam" / Marc also joins us this week to provide a run-down of which MCU movies we should binge before Avengers: Endgame. You can see his full slideshow (complete with reasoning for the movie order) over at Patreon!

  • AP Choice covers our favorite snacks, summer drinks, comics, and dickish friends.

  • In the news: Helicopter parents are still managing their adult children’s schedules and an Indiana elementary school shoots its teachers execution style with pellets.

    • We’re back with another Pew Research quiz: can we correctly identify factual and opinion statements?

    • Pew administered this quiz to Americans to see how good they are at recognizing fake news. Not shockingly, they’re pretty bad at it.

    • We fess up about what fake news headlines have fooled us in the past, and provide our favorite tips and tricks for verifying that the news we’re sharing is indeed real.

    • Fake news isn’t just a politics problem - we dive into all the ways in which fake news infiltrates all aspects of life.
