Summary
John talks about the Department of Justice opening a criminal investigation into E. Jean Carroll, claiming she perjured herself in her two civil trial victories against Donald Trump, the adjudicated rapist. He also discusses the stupidity of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin proposing withdrawing Customs and Border Protection officers from sanctuary city airports, and greatly impacting air travel to punish woke cities. Then, John interviews Jason G. Green who is the author of "Too Precious to Lose", a memoir which blends family history, civic life, and historical research to explore how communities endure. And, he jokes with standup comedian, writer, and podcast host Ophira Eisenberg. She's been headlining theaters and comedy venues across the world, has toured regularly with the Moth Mainstage, and she hosts the weekly parenting-comedy podcast Parenting is a Joke. She also hosted NPR’s trivia comedy show Ask Me Another for 9 years. Her breakout memoir Screw Everyone: Sleeping My Way to Monogamy has been optioned for a television series. They talk about her new standup special “I USED TO BE NICER”.
