Show notes

In this episode Matt rips into Lyin’ Ted Cruz, Matt’s least favorite living person, for running away to Cancun as a brutal snowstorm rocked the state of Texas. Then, after passionately eviscerating Flyin’ Ted Cancruz, Matt covers several other subjects as well, including but not limited to: Joel Schumacher’s film ‘The Number 23’, the high-level dumbness of people who believe in ‘numerology’, toy maker conglomerate Hasbro’s triggering of a bunch of rightwing lemmings by innocuously dropping the ‘Mr.’ in ‘Mr. Potato Head’, Oreo’s tweet about trans people and how it should have gone much further if it truly wanted to make a real statement of solidarity, why corporations meekly dip their toes into the culture wars in the first place— and, finally, the mind-numbingly boring ‘dance’ videos that go viral on TikTok. Also, at the very end of this episode, Matt confesses to being dumb about a thing. Don’t miss it!
