In this episode, Alex ponders why only Mexican Beer seems to come with a lime, then he dives into more substantive issues.

Specifically, Alex focuses on Trump’s comments around Kamala Harris being a biracial woman. Later, Alex looks into the recent prisoner sway between Russia and Germany/the United States.
