“There is no happy show about Baltimore “ -Trevor Joyner

Why do white people love The Wire? This week’s guest, Stand up comedian and writer Trevor Joyner, joins Matt and Vince to ask the important questions while discussing season two episode six of The Wire, “All Prologue.”

Before getting into the episode, which could be a pilot for a sitcom called Everybody Loves Omar, they fire up the Back In the Day Machine to remember SARS and smoking in restaurants, then learn about Iranian conjoined twins, and struggle to understand the concept of deflation. It’s like inflation, but backwards? Money would be worth less, and that would be bad? Let’s just assume if it happened now, your uncles would be so pissed at Joe Biden for causing it. 

In a milestone for the show, D’angelo makes his last appearance (RIP D), and in a milestone for the podcast, we have our first guest who has a firsthand story about a cast member. Listen to find out who Trevor saw popping and locking at a club.
