AKA - No Sons Seeing my Shirtless Men President Trump is mad at windmills and has seen "that movie." Two muscular brothers defend a buff and nude Mueller. Media's most preeminent treat boy attempts to secure his legacy. Even Baseball Crank is back. Today's episode is a grab bag overflowing with riches.

That Peter and the wolf bit at the start was hilarious. I somehow managed to not know anything about this Krassenstein stuff before and I kind of wish I'd just skipped this episode now. Wow.

I had to do a Google Image search for John Podhoretz. He looks exactly like I expected him to from listening to this episode.

Same - I really don't know how they keep tabs on all these douchebags but I commend them for wading through the muck. Also A+ for calling him "Treat Boy".

The brutality of their "Reading Series" selections is a goddam public service. I get to understand what the reactionaries are on about without having to directly encounter their terrible prose. It's like how some movies are only made tolerable when "riffed."
