This week the boys are joined by special guest Chris Casey as they dive into Chris Sandman aka MAGA kid aka punchable face- settling his lawsuit with CNN. Then we jump into Twitter having to tackle the problem of noone on their platform reading articles they post- before they post them, and finally a look at the Capital Hill Autonomous Zone.

This week the boys are joined by special guest Sierra to discuss some of the happenings in Congress that are dealing with reform for police. Then they move into another Twitter escapade that gripped the world from JK Rowling, and finally Prince Andrew is gaslighting the US Judicial system.

This week to celebrate the 100th official TAP Snap episode the boys are joined by special guests Chris and Sierra to discuss some of the happenings over the past week. We explore some of Trumps decision making and incendiary comments towards deploying the military over the protests and riots, and being 'tough' on dissenters. Then we discuss Trump tear gassing and hitting protesters with rubber bullets at St. John's Episcopal Church in DC, and finally we discuss some of the nuanced dis-information campaigns actively running to incite further division in the states.

A special thank you to all our listeners and supporters.
