Today on The Gist, our resident vexillologist Ted Kaye explains why it's so much fun to visit micronation.org and size up the baby flags. For more flag news, we strongly recommend subscribing to the Vexilloid Tabloid, the bimonthly newsletter of the Portland Flag Association. Then, Mike asks Maria Konnikova of the New Yorker to open our eyes about insomnia, the latest in a series we call "Is That Bulls--t?" In the Spiel, Mike finds himself defending Lindsey Graham.
