Zach is joined by writer/producer of everything Brock Wilbur to discuss Bret Easton Ellis's newest work of post-empire creative nonfiction, White. Not a fan!

Grant is back from Europe and ready to take a deep dive into Pokemon Detective Pikachu and all the news he missed over the last two weeks from Hellworld!

Left without a cohost or a means to bring in a remote guest host, Zach drank a margarita and decided to talk to himself for 35 minutes on mic. No big deal.

Stick around until the end for six minutes of Bernie Sanders talking to some mall goths in 1988.

While Grant is in one of those weird countries that have a working healthcare system, Zach is joined on Skype by Greg Stevens (@gregstevens) to discuss Satanism, The Satanic Temple, and the new documentary "**Hail Satan?**," now playing in select cities.

Grant's back for an episode before heading off to Europe with the wife of the pod for their long overdue honeymoon! We dish about how he spent the last two weeks in Toledo before Zach gives his book report on the 448 page Mueller report.

Content warning: we talk at length about sexual assault, body autonomy, violence against LGBT persons, and violations of human rights at the border in more detail than usual, so if this is the episode you have to skip, we completely understand.

Screenwriter J. Patrick Rigney joins Zach this week to talk about how the frog has been fully boiled and all we can do now as we have tipped into full fascistic Hellworld is, I don't know, talk about Harmony Korine's The Beach Bum?

Before anyone slides into our DMs and goes "Well, actually…" I know that I say "60 House seats" when I mean 60 Senate seats and I know I referred to Godwin's Law as "Moore's Law" and yaddi yaddi yadda I'M VERY DUMB, OKAY.

Stay tuned til the end if you care about a scumbag on my former local city council getting absolutely wrecked. It's the only thing that made me happy this week.

Comedian and recovering news anchor Kelly Andersen (Kiki if you're nasty) is this week's guest host! She and Zach talk about the Healthy Holly scandal brewing in Baltimore, the second rumblings of a boycott on the hotel properties owned by the Sultan of Brunei, and much more important things like how Jodi Arias is a Never Trump Republican.

Zach was left to his own devices this week without the help of producers Prince Pardee, Moose Pardee, and Milo Pardee, so that's why the audio sounds like dog doodie. They (okay, let's be real, it's Grant) are much better at turning the knobs in the right direction and he knows better now than to crank the levels up to eleven.

Grant is on a reporting trip to Ohio so we are joined today by his friend Joey Fatone (pronounced Fah-tony).

Robert Mueller is not going to save us...and that's okay. We are perfectly capable of saving ourselves and by golly, I think we will.

In addition to the Barr memo, we discuss the greatest high school theatre production ever made and how three extremely online teenagers have taken a retired U.S. Senator and turned him into a renewed symbol of anti-imperialism on the left. The kids made this week bearable and in light of recent tragic news surrounding the survivors of last year's Parkland massacre, we really ought to protect them at all costs.
