This episode of Cognitive Dissinence is brought to you by our patrons.

You fucking rock.

Be advised that this show is not for children, the faint of heart, or the easily offended.

The explicit tag is there for a reason. Recording live from Gloriahole studios in chicago and beyond this is cognitive dissonance

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 it big or makes us mad it's
