Was January 6th an “insurrection” or just another media myth? And why are Americans still arguing over how much to tip while pets are (allegedly) doing cocaine?

In this episode, Ryan cuts through the noise with a breakdown of:

• The January 6th narrative war, with Jon Stewart clips, FBI speculation, and Pelosi finger-pointing

• Outrageous real-life stories of server mistreatment

• Plus: cuddling salons in Poland, high pets, and the very short life of a mayfly

Truth, respect, and a little bit of absurdity—this one’s got it all.
