    Things That Are News Ep.62: Lowering The Roseanne Barr

    Things That Are News Ep.62: Lowering The Roseanne Barr

    This week the boys discuss how you can be racist but still get your show rebooted decades later because everyone is so desperately craving a sense of nostalgia, or conversely, maybe we’re secretly biased against the under-represented conservatives that finally have a show that is genuine for them?

    Who knows, we haven’t made a shower BUT we will one day! Well . . . if we keep talking this spicy, it may have gone out the window just now.
