Summary

Second consecutive day with a new episode! Woooohoooo! In this one Matt breaks down the RNC and all its depression-inducing insanity, and gets into a few other things as well, including but not limited to: a follow-up on the Lady Antebellum name-change controversy (which is somehow even worse than he originally thought), the latest protesters vs armed-militia showdown (this time in Wisconsin) — and, finally, a plea for everyone, no matter what you believe in, to please chill the fuck out.

Lady Antibellum chose the fucking name Antibellum.

2:06.6

They don't get points for changing it.

2:10.5

When it became clear that it was the fucking wrong thing to do

to name yourself with a word that obviously hearkens back to
