Sunday Papers

Subscribe to Greg Fitzsimmons: https://bit.ly/subGregFitz Greg Fitzsimmons and Mike Gibbons investigate what your first-class airfare actually gets you, whether a strip club counts as a sports bar, and a Florida suspect whose escape plan required the ability to fly. Plus, Norm Macdonald’s documentary and legendary commitment to a bit, Nathan Fielder’s Elizabeth Holmes documentary, an argument about ethics, and a round of This Day in History that puts Greg’s confidence to the test. The guys also remember Tom Skerritt and RJ Mitte before tackling another batch of listener cartoon captions.
