It always hurts to get savaged by a force you don't understand. What the hell is the electoral college and why does it exist? Is it an needed component of our complex republic or a relic from times gone by? Helping us muddle through this is Dr. David Henkin, History Professor at UC Berkeley and Author of several books including , "Becoming America" where he discusses the EC at length. Comedic guests are: James Adomian, Baron Vaughn, and Dave Anthony.

Previous Episode

Pimpin'

Live at the SF outside lands festival- The sexist topic of all! Sex itself! Fillmore Slim is a legendary pimp who has been in the game for more than 50 years. Long enough for the game to have become kind of a weird topic to brag about. Predictably this episode is awesome and also problematic. With John Mulaney, Kaseem Bentley and Natasha Leggero.

Next Episode

The Case for Ending Civilization

Is civilization worth it? Are the advances brought about by society offset by the misery it created? Are hunter/gatherers really happier? Would you give up hip hop and texting if you had a little more peace of mind? Would we be better off without civilization? Chris Ryan (Sex at Dawn) thinks so. Comic guests: Kumail Nanjiani (Silicon Valley), Claudia O'Doherty (LOVE), and Natasha Leggero (Another Period, Moshe's wife) aren't so sure. This episode is as funny as things can be. Hunter/gather yourself some laughs.
