  • The Truth About DoorDash Grandma
    Apr 17 2026
    On Monday, an Arkansas grandmother of 10 children flew to Washington D.C. at the behest of DoorDash to deliver the President of the United State two bags of McDonald’s. The stunt was a promotion for the food delivery app, and for Trump’s “No Tax On Tips” policy which allegedly helps workers like DoorDash Grandma save on taxes. As you might imagine, no aspect of the bizarre stunt was what it seemed. Today, we unearth the truth about DoorDash, grandmas, and the absolute fraud that is Republican tax policy. I even try math!

  • Hasan Piker Derangement Syndrome (with Abdul El-Sayed)
    Apr 10 2026
    As we teeter on the edge of war, Epstein chaos, and an AI-induced job market collapse, it’s a comfort to know that Democrats are fighting as hard as they can to defeat… Hasan Piker! The online left’s favorite hunk has created a crisis for establishment Democrats, whose allegiance to Israel and corporate interests has become career-threatening (finally!). Today, Michigander and 2026 senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed joins me to unpack the centrist smear campaign against Hasan Piker, the millions of Democrat dollars intent on crushing the left, and what we can do about it.

  • The Campaign To Crush Chappell Roan
    Apr 4 2026
    On March 21, 2026, as violent tensions escalated in Trump’s illegal war on Iran, the second most-discussed event in the United States was Chappell Roan’s hotel breakfast. What began as a forgettable “controversy” involving celebrities, a security guard, and a fancy hotel in Brazil soon transformed into a political proxy war that feels deeply emblematic of what the Internet has become. Today, Caroline Kwan, Kat Tenbarge and I dive deep into the episode I was sure I wouldn’t make. But here we are. In tears. Listen to bonus episodes on Patreon! Thanks to today’s sponsors!
