It'll be the episode title, Sean will discuss it for 20 seconds, then Kev will say he doesn't wanna talk about, then they'll make an offhand comment that becomes a recurring joke for the rest of the episode while never seriously discussing the topic... ya know, the usual! 😂

Just a reminder to viewers that when it says "Premiere in progress" under the video, it's ***not*** "live". Any time you see "Premiere in progress" instead of "Stream started X minutes ago", it's pre-recorded and not live. They can't see your live chat, so there's no point in asking them questions in the live chat.

Voting should NOT last 1 month (much less multiple months), should not be mailed and is not a right. It is a privilege enjoyed by citizens...only in the locality to where they are registered/living and should be dated, signed and the voters identity confirmed before they go into the voting booth to cast their vote. Other non 1st world countries can somehow figure out out to do this countrywide in 1 day. Why can't 🇺🇸, and the (un)Democratic Party in particular, figure this out? The answer is as clear as day and doesn't make the 🔵 look good in any way whatsoever.
