There’s a general election coming up in Ireland, and rather than just having us attempt our worst Irish accents, we’ve brought on comedy writer Michael Fry (@bigdirtyfry) to discuss it with Riley (@raaleh), Nate (@inthesedeserts), and Alice @AliceAvizandum. However, we have to discuss a haunted water cooler app and an op-ed about market-based solutions for our incipient societal meltdown. You will enjoy this, we promise. Do not ask us to explain the title.
