The explicit tag is there for a reason. Recording live from Gloria Hole Studios in Chicago and beyond.

This is cognitive distance.

Every episode we blast anyone who gets in our way. We bring critical thinking, skepticism, and irreverence to any topic that makes the news, makes us, nope, makes it big

or makes us mad. It's skeptical. It's political. And there is no welcome at. Today is Thursday, December the 5th.

I'm recording from home because we are sick as fuck over here in the Curry House.

We've got my stepson, Donovan, went out to a party on Saturday night, came home Saturday,

Saturday night, Saturday night, Sunday morning. Hold on, hold on, hold on. We're going to get to

the bottom of this. Did he go to the Olive Garden? He did not. He went to, we did our Thanksgiving

on Saturday, so he ate with us on Saturday. And then he went to a bonfire with friends.

And then he came back in the middle of the night he was sick.

And we're like, oh, shit.

We're hoping it was food poisoning.

But it is not, it is working its way slowly and methodically through the family.

Thank God.

E. coli.

Dude, for real.

It's bad. So, like, I have not gotten sick,

but that makes me the designated cleaner upper. Oh, man. Which means I'm constantly exposed.
