E64: Ashton Kutcher Gives Roger Stone a Manicure! (feat. Glace Chase)


Listen Later

There’s no good time to be incapacitated, but that’s what happened this week, and we’re still struggling to keep up with all the horrors. But with the help of our special guest, comedienne/playwright Glace Chase, we managed to shut down the substance, structure and guests of the State of the Union speech; a wild ATM incident in China; a man in the Netherlands embroiled in a legal battle to officially change his age; and, of course, the scandal in the Virginia legislature that combines three elements we thought we’d never see together: blackface, #metoo and the Moonwalk. Also: Rachel delivers an update on her ongoing text-message friendship with Ashton Kutcher and we respond to a particularly thorny #AskNope query about friends asking friends for online reviews.
