Summary
Yes, Jia Tolentino is a bestselling author, but more importantly... she is a Pi Phi. She joins the boys for an enlightening conversation about the sick and twisted rituals of "Greek life," and honey we're NOT talking about the School of Athens! Questions include: Is "rush" morally defensible? Is hazing hot? Are all men gay? Plus: Jia opens up about her improv-adjacent past and Sam announces an important new science experiment that needs urgent government funding.
