EP 141 - The Lunatic Dilemma

07/05/20 • 29 min

Sales has interviewed John Bolton about his remininscently-of-something-named memoir, The Room Where It Happened. This kicks off a discussion Crabb has been mulling over for a while: If you work with an out of control megalomaniac, what is your obligation to society? The space-adorability continuum develops a serious pleat when Sales listens to a podcast involving Yotam AND Lin-Manuel. And Crabb's new favourite podcast involves gal pals Nakkiah Lui and Miranda Tapsell, sparking fears she will defect to a new BFF arrangement.
