Summary

The Meidas Brothers kick off the show by discussing the Twitter poll that gripped America and crowned Jordy the fan favorite. They then talk the about fact that Stupid Season has returned to the media highlight the false-equivalencies that equate a GOP-led insurrection to President Biden wearing a nice watch, and the toxic framing of stories that pollutes our political discourse. The brothers then discuss how the GOP is broken beyond repair, after fully embracing fascism and the conspiracies of QAnon over American democracy. The Meidas Brothers then welcome the legendary actress, social justice advocate and host of The Dissenters Podcast Debra Messing to the program to discuss the need for accountability in our politics. Ben also breaks out his best Ricky Ricardo impression. The brothers close out the show by discussing the new $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit filed by Dominion Systems against Rudy Giuliani, the “redemption” tour of Dr. Deborah Birx, and decide whether or not they will sue Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.
