Summary

Tig and Cheryl elect to discuss Boys State, a timely 2020 documentary following a group of teenage boys as they run for office at an annual mock government summer camp held in Austin, Texas. Our hosts are impressed by the political ability of some of the boys-- but dismayed by the "talent show" portion of the doc. Tig also ponders why guys chant "hoo, hoo."
