It’s wall-to-wall patriotism as The Whiparound takes a long look at voting in 21st ccntury America. Brand new cohost Jill Yapsuga joins Dave and Shaun to help peel back the slogans, sweep away the confetti, and hack through the placards to discover how Americans have been handling their most sacred of civic duties.
BUT FIRST: Jill hits the ground…eating? A tale of a Mac & Cheese “Me Date” evolves into a strange and fascinating look at overconfidence and missed connections Ms. Yapsuga’s debut edition of “Here’s the Thing!”
AND LATER, IN THE SPEED ROUND…Shaun’s struggling with bad writing in commercials, Dave has international soccer woes, and Jill talks guns, gender, all things wistful and so much more…on the Whiparound!
