Summary
After Katie tells Jesse about her #VanLife travails, Jesse corrects some stuff from the last episode, and a bit more lucky Pierre/Eiffel Tower/etc. goes down, the hosts discuss a recent Atlantic article about youth sports and gender that is… well, it’s really quite bad. Then they discuss the de-PayPalling of Gays Against Groomers and the Free Speech Union, which seems like bad news whatever you think of these groups
