Fake the Nation

Happy Taint Week - to celebrate, we're sharing a few wonderful conversations we had in the backlog! First, Sam Bee and Gloria Riviera join to discuss a morally dubious way to get your in-laws to leave and whether "liking" hot girl pics on IG is tantamount to cheating. And then, John Fugelsang and Gabe Mollica join to talk about a boyfriend who caught their future in-law cheating on their spouse.
