In a very special episode, Katie and Jesse discuss a long, stupid week in which democracy had its way with the American people, vigorously and repeatedly. What should we make of the fact that, while Joe Biden is on the brink of victory, the election was closer than many expected and the Democrats were denied their "blue wave"? Is it because of the patriarchy? White supremacy? Wokeness? Minorities who cling annoyingly to 'agency' and "interpreting the world through their own values, rather than the media's?" Also: Jesse dissects Donald Trump's incredibly lazy, half-assed meltdown, and the hosts debate whether "Voter fraud stole the election for Biden!" is the new "The Russians stole the election for Trump!"(Quick note to patrons: This is the first episode we're doing with an ad break in the middle. Near the top, you'll hear us explain our general ad policy, just so it's clear, but you won't hear the ad itself, during this or any other episode. At the very, very bottom of the Patreon show notes of every episode with an ad, we'll put a one-line link to any applicable promo codes, simply because this is an easy way to support the podcast if you're already in the market for (to take this week's example) dental products. But other than that, you'll be completely unmolested by ads.)Show notes/Links:Katie's new newsletter: http://moosenuggets.substack.comThe Week: The left just got crushed - https://theweek.com/articles/947824/left-just-got-crushedChaos and recriminations on a Democratic caucus conference call: https://twitter.com/ericawerner/status/1324439295847968768The New York Times: Exit Polls Point to the Power of White Patriarchy - https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/04/opinion/election-2020-exit-polls.htmlAdvertising link:http://getquip.com/BARPOD for $15 off dental-product refills with a purchase from the Quip online store   This is a public episode.
