Summary
Today's show starts with an observation about how we talk about the primary candidates and how we tell the history of 2016. Then I've got lots of voicemail! Topics include: Trump being a Russian mole, technology improving quality of life while taking jobs from us, a few on whether Kristi and I unfairly lumped Sam Harris in with Jordan Peterson and Dave Rubin in our episode on Louis CK, further insight into the IRB process, and finally how exactly do we define the term 'racism'? Lots of great stuff, thank you so much for the messages and keep them coming for next month!

| 1:12.0 | Because I just love hearing it in your own words. |
| 1:14.3 | It's a fun thing to add onto the show |
| 1:16.4 | rather than me reading something. |
| 1:18.3 | But if it's a good email, I may read it on the show. |
| 1:21.2 | So it's a voicemail episode slash maybe a couple emails here |
| 1:23.8 | all right not as many on the most recent episode I'm kind of surprised maybe I ended up |
| 1:28.3 | it may was one of those things where I thought more people would I don't know disagree |
| 1:31.6 | than actually did I got a couple on stuff related to that, but I forgot how active of a month it was. |
| 1:39.0 | Or maybe that's not the right word, but it was a good month of episodes because I had a ton of voicemail on, you know, we got the |
