Summary

Trump didn't get impeached! Iowa was a disaster! A virus is getting ready to destroy humanity! What's next?

Oh, and stick around until the end when Nick surprises Levin with the most difficult question ever asked on Inside the Hive. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
