Summary

A special edition episode that explores two post-truth, dystopian subjects. The first is renting friends, family, and other people. Particularly a thing in Japan. The second is a guy who injects a variety of substances (including stem cells) into himself and partakes in outlandish, extreme workouts just to operate at "peak performance." This was a fun one.
