How Cool Is This?

Michael’s the VP of Communications at The Infatuation. They’ve teamed up with The Migrant Kitchen to provide free food to people at polling places. Will this remove a barrier to voting and allow more people to exercise their sovereignty? And more importantly, is that cool?

“The goal is to dole out 50,000 meals on election day. And the math for us is pretty simple. The more money we're able to raise, the more meals we'll be able to serve.”

Inspired by Nick's joke suggestion on a recent episode, Brian recorded his own idea and talked to himself to evaluate just how cool it is.

Brian's idea is that "How Cool Is This?" should air daily episodes until the 2020 General Election in the United States is resolved.

"It is very possible that we will know [who wins] Tuesday, but if we don't, Nick and I are prepared to do daily episodes until we do know... which hopefully is not next year, but if it is, then we will keep going."
