Summary

Phoebe Robinson recounts the tributes and trolling her book has prompted with its title, You Can't Touch My Hair: And Other Things I Still Have to Explain. On The Gist, Robinson wonders whether dreadlocks have really entered the mainstream (and are they ever acceptable on white guys?), and gives Mike a lesson in cultural sensitivity. Robinson is the goofball complement to her co-host Jessica Williams' deadpan delivery on the 2 Dope Queens podcast. She is also the host of the interview podcast, Sooo Many White Guys. For the Spiel, the West Virginia governor race pits a wealthy Democrat against both coal and Cole. Today's sponsor: Money Mind, a new podcast from Prudential.

0:38.5	Friday October 7th, 2016 from Slate, it's the gist I'm Mike Pesca. As we await
0:44.8	the next presidential debate, as I prepare for a gist rapid response that will appear in your
0:52.2	gist feed on Monday morning, we can only give you bits of a preview right now. One, it will be
1:00.0	interesting to see how Donald Trump responds when an average citizen asks as an average citizen will,
1:06.5	hey, I pay taxes, you didn't, you said that makes you smart, does that make me stupid. By the way,
1:14.4	this is definitely going to be asked and I think what Trump needs to go with is no, it doesn't make
1:19.1	you stupid what it does is make you a victim of our terrible tax code and I'm the one to avenge
1:26.8	all the victims. And if Trump isn't prepared to take this exact question and turn it into a positive,
1:33.2	you gotta wonder if he and Roger Al's were busy playing grab ass instead of prepping for this
1:37.2	debate. Of course, he's also going to say he loves this explanation that he used and abused the
1:42.7	tax code and that makes him armed with knowledge. Only he who has taken a bat to the tax code knows
1:50.0	how to defeat the tax code. And in that spirit, I predict that he will announce that he is enlisted
1:56.3	a key advisor to steer him through another of his signature issues, the issue of law and order,
2:03.8	the fact that murder rates have spiked by 10% in several cities and he is going to announce
