Too cheap? Not lucky enough to be American? Write in to our advice column! Send an MP3 to [email protected] with “ADVICE” in the title and you might be lucky enough to be mocked/advised by Jesse Singal and Katie Herzog on B&R. All are welcome to write in, whether or not you are a Primo.

This week: Jesse gets sent directly to Jewish Hell for misrepresenting Judaism, Men’s Health becomes the next to fall to ideological capture and publishes the worst advice column of all time, and Win Butler of Arcade Fire fame becomes the next to be canceled due to allegations of sexual misconduct. But as usual, there may be more to the story…
