Summary

Do you know who Alex Chilton is? Sarah Silverman shares how she became a fan of his songs way before she knew he was who sang them!

This week, Sarah has callers asking about all sorts of quandaries – how should you react when you enter a Confederate bar with a Donald Trump flag flying high? And what to do if you love the front row at comedy shows but hate being called on.

Another caller wants to know when Sarah “takes a puff,” how exactly is she enjoying her weed. There’s a caller who brings up a fascinating point about referring to people as immigrants as opposed to ex-pats. And, Sarah shares a story about a man she tried to sleep with who turned her down, yet she remained naked and continued to hang out!
