It's all about Hillary Clinton's emails, obviously. Tim struggles to say his own name, let alone follow the insane trail of events he's missed in his podcast absence, Jeb is deftly makes pop culture references, historical precedent and Google results to let us know what's happening. Plus, exactly how terrible is the American Healthcare Act 2.0? Real terrible. And now, terrible real. :(

His Condolences

Hollywood's dark underbelly has been exposed and Jeb and Tim discuss whether the Weinstein fiasco will lead to even more public airing of abuses by powerful men or stop dead at the ruined film executive. Trump's military moral authority is questioned, in light of him talking and joking while a flag lowering ceremony is taking place at a military base during a Fox interview. Meanwhile actual (terrible) policy is still happening too; This week, the continuation of Project Destroy Obamacare. On a lighter note, New Zealand still doesn't have a government and nobody seems to mind too much.
