Summary

This is the Protest episode where we not only vent our anger about the police killings of unarmed Michael Brown, Eric Garner, and Tamir Rice, but we talk to some people who have been on the front lines. Jordan Temple tells us what makes for a good stand-up set in a holding cell, and Brighter Side regular Luisa Diez helps us understand the racial and systemic issues of police use of force.
