Summary

In this episode Matt breaks down Joe Pesci’s little-known musical career, reviews the absurd 1989 action film TANGO & CASH through the lens of 2020, tells us why he’s legally changing his name from ‘Matt D’Elia’ to ‘M. Diesel’, and — of course — gives you all the latest on Donald Trump’s COVID-19 diagnosis, its far-reaching fallout, and the very dumb conspiracy theories about it coming from both sides of the political spectrum.
