Brian's been laid up recovering for the past week, so he needed to be brought up to speed on all things Kavanaugh and Musk. He also serves his punishment for besmirching Drink of the Week. We've got This Week In Racism and Beef of the Week!

Ron is on his own this week and asking for your thoughts & prayers for #BriansTitaniumTaint. This Week in Racism takes us out to the ballgame, and we review our TWIR winners so far. Brian's punishment drinks are revealed, and we share some of the best political campaign racism this year.

Our long-awaited State of the Union Address! We discuss politics, media, the environment, religion, technology, celebrity, and entertainment. We retire Jimmy Taylor, which means two new contenders in This Week In Racism!

We take a trip down one of the weirder conspiracy rabbit holes - that Portland's Voodoo Doughnut is a front for Child Sex Trafficking. Brian drops the ball on the Drink of the Week, we air our beefs, This Week In Racism, and we tease a very special episode.

There's no rest for Ron & Brian this Labor Day - the show must go on! We've got drinks, beefs and racism, as well as watching the internet go crazy over Colin Kaerpernick's new Nike contract. John McCain and Aretha Franklin were laid to rest this week, the Philly homeless man sues for his GoFundMe money, and a woman loses her head in the Bronx. Our newest, littlest co-host makes her voice heard, and two West Virginia newswomen bring the pain!

We reflect on the life of John McCain and discuss the murder of Mollie Tibbetts. The Pope visited Ireland, a Texas man hates women drivers, and Louis CK returned for 15 minutes of infamy, whether you wanted to see him or not. Beef of the Week survived, we have a new winner in This Week In Racism, and we enjoy a refreshing Moscow Mule!

So many topics, you won't believe we fit them all in one episode! Senator Michael Williams does and doesn't think the use of the n-word matters, Brian talks about his day of wrestling, and we give a couple of celebrity eulogies. We have more downloads than Kevin Spacey sells tickets, and Asia Argento is now on the other side of #MeToo. Truth apparently isn't truth, security clearances are so hot right now, and then there's that whole Manafort/Cohen thing. Your favorite weekly bits are here too - but one of them is on the chopping block!

We talk memorabilia, Chris Hardwick, we keep a close watch on Aretha Franklin, and we say goodbye to The Anvil. Brian's sordid history with SoCo is revealed during Drink of the Week, and we've got a brand new racist! Plane crashes were in vogue over the past few days, and we air our Beefs of the Week!

Drink of the Week brings the pain, and we serve you up a Five Dollar Footlong of Racism. Dead fetuses were trending this week, and we discuss Ron's trip to the Jersey Shore. We honor the memory of Charlotte Rae, and we've also got Ron & Brian's Beef of the Week!

Two words: Bigfoot Porn. Two more words: Chuck Tingle. The combining of those words make for some interesting writing (and conversation). We also discuss stolen sharks, the Trump Star, deadly porn, and 3-D guns. Looking for This Week In Racism and Drink of the Week? We got those too!
