26 Oct Patrick Rosenstiel
Show Summary
Adam opens today’s show talking with Bryan and Gina about his recurring communication problems. To illustrate, he tells stories about trying to order a margarita and trying to put a new condo together, which leads to a discussion of the War on Context. The guys then talk further about the Kay Jewelers commercial that Adam says means we’ve jumped the shark, and they discuss the harm done by the self-esteem movement. Later, Adam pitches his idea for ‘Carb Credits’, and before the break, the guys take listener calls for a round of Mr. Brightside.
Patrick Rosenstiel is on the line at the top of Part 2 of today’s podcast. He gives his relevant background working in politics, and talks about revolutionizing the way we elect presidents by awarding electoral college votes based on the national popular vote. Adam then asks Patrick to address some points made in a popular Prager U video in support of the electoral college as it currently stands, and Gina goes on to read a news story about Gavin Newsom’s ridiculous Thanksgiving guidelines. In the last part of the show, the guys discuss problems with cancel culture as addressed on Sarah Silverman’s podcast.
