Summary

In this installment of Best Of The Gist, Joe Biden announced his intention to run for the Presidency again this past week, so we revisit Mike's analysis of the announcement. Then we listen back to Mike's January 10, 2017 interview with Chad Nackers, head writer at the Onion, who talked about how his site created a whole new character to satirize Obama's tee-totaling vice-president, and the delicate balancing act of finding jokes that don't normalize the next president.
