Well, hello there. I'm Dave Holmes and welcome to Troubled Waters, the show that treats popular culture as the most important kind of culture, because it could be potentially the kind that bums you out the least.

But having said that, this drops in the middle of October, and if you want there to be any culture left at all, let this be yet another reminder to vote and to fucking vote from Biden and Harris.

Let's not be, let's just let's just put it.

Let's put it out there.

I mean, vote, yes, vote.

Of course, vote.

Make your voice heard.

It's definitely unethical. It's very much presidenated.

So for now, it is one comic against another.

To win this battle, each comic will be called upon to use their smarts, their rhetorical

skills, the good comebacks they've been amassing in isolation, to earn the coveted troubled waters

title, Pundit Emeritus. The title of Pundit Amaritus automatically gives a person's opinion on,

civilians.

You're ready?

I am.
