Hey, everybody. Before we start the show, I wanted to let you know that I will be performing

at the San Francisco punchline on Tuesday, October 17th alongside Mahasbund. I have to say

that I'm like Melania. Matt Leeb, comedian and podcaster, you have heard and seen on Good

Mythical Morning and on Pod Yourself, The Wire. Get tickets right now. There is a link in

the podcast description and I hope to see all the frantifa and all the dragon squad and all the

piggies there.

Welcome back to The Damage Report. I am Ravenna filling in for John Eida Rola, who I know you all

miss so, so dearly. And you're always saying that in the comments. He'll be back soon.

She got to give him time to spend with his brand new addition to his family, which is so sweet

and we're so happy for him. We've got a lot of super fun stories coming up. We're going to talk

about the ever increasing circus that is the speakership amongst the Republican Party, the

battle going on there. We're going to talk about the really sad state of affairs in Texas as a

an 18 year old student is being sent to a disciplinary school because of his dreadlocks

violating the Crown Act that was recently passed in the state. We're going to talk about calls

for George Santos to be expelled from Congress as well as Kerry Lake officially launching her

Senate campaign. All this and more, and joining me to discuss all this is Jackson White and Jackson,

I feel like and especially the Damage Report audience will love this. You are a massive nerd.

Yes, massive, massive. I'm a little bit of everything. Yes.

And what were you saying? I was just saying you were just telling me you stayed up almost all night

watching the Mandalorian. Yeah, I pretty much didn't go to sleep at all. I was up till about

approximately 430 getting through seven episodes of the Mandalorian. I had yet to see it.

And sometimes it's cool when you come to a production lake because you can just binge watch it.
