Summary

It’s another week of us trying to make sense of the world around us. Turns out it’s a tough task. Lewis hit the road for the first time in a while and with that involves Lewis shaking the rust and remembering his act and parts he wants to add. During this process it’s also important to stay off Twitter as the feedback can be tough on one’s mental health. Meanwhile protests have popped up pretty much everywhere you can think of just in time for the Democrats not being able to form a unified front. Their first failure at the wrong time.
