State of Deez Nuts
Fear is the mind killer, but Lovett is the kind thriller, in this week’s episode. The State of our Union is strong, and so are Max Silvestri and Ron Funches who stop by to put the “dad” in dad jokes. Kid Fury and Marcella Arguello bring the heat on some hot topics, and Lovett and his guests stand tall as they defend Panda Express, average-sized femmes, and life being over at 40.

Only just started listening to this podcast - I do live in Australia - amazingly insightful - love it
Succession Spoilers
Don't listen to this show if don't want Succession spoiled. I'm really upset that the jokes about succession had spoilers. Not only that, they were perhaps the least aware comedy of the entire podcast.
Smart and funny
Love this show. Informative and funny. John is a wonderful empathetic host. Adapted well to COVID restrictions.
