Summary

The Ruminant returns to its usual format today after last week’s drive-time diversion, as Jonah is once again placed under the unsettling eyes of several silent spectators. After exploring the history of American censorship and the current state of free speech, Jonah dives headfirst into the ongoing Liz Cheney controversy and lingering nuttiness of Donald Trump within the GOP. Will Josh Hawley ever cease to irritate? Is morality hardwired into babies? And why do the women in Jonah’s life all have awkwardly positioned birthdays?

1:04.6	usually like the weekend before Mother's Day and my daughter's birthday is a
1:10.0	couple days shy of Valentine's Day. So there's a thing in my life about women
1:16.9	having inconvenient birthdays and demanding separate... Not demanding I shouldn't
1:23.0	say that but creating an obligation upon me to have separate celebrations. It's
1:30.4	not quite as bad as like having your birthday on Christmas or something like
1:33.7	that but it just means my day is going to be full of pounding out a G-File and
1:39.5	scrambling around to do right by the fair Jessica. Anyway so somehow it's

2:01.9	immediately next or when that all happened or any of that kind of stuff but it's
2:05.7	just nice to know. We can put that in the rotation and also the drive time you
