This week, we take a little break (or a little breaky IYKYK) and decided to release one of our recent patron only bonus episodes onto the main feed for you all to enjoy. In the month of August(ish) we watched an episode of the Michael Knowles Book Club on Prager U where he and future Minitruth functionary Dave Rubin pretended to have read 1984. We sure enjoyed it and we hope you will too.

This week, after 35 years of promising we finally delve into the world of right wing comedy or what passes for comedy on the right. We take a look at up and coming acts like Nicholas De Santo, Old timer weirdos like Rodney Carrington and Dennis Miller, and the right’s funny boy in chief, Greg Gutfeld. We apologize for how unfunny this episode is in advance.
