In today's episode, we run through some of the plays that the Harris and Trump campaigns are running to try to prove how weird the other side is. Stream "Toys 4 Tots" by Fashawn feat.

Springfield, OH didn't really appreciate all this attention from the GOP ticket talking about migrants eating everybody's pets. Now the town is dealing with bomb threats and right-wing YouTubers, all because y'all lied on our Haitian population.

For those who don't know, "whoopin feet" is LA slang for beating somebody up so bad, they come flying out they shoes.

When you really get down to it, both Trump and Harris' economic plans are just them bossing up. One is doing it by the sword and the other is doing it through finesse.

No, The Other Zionism

Right now, Zionism has been the way to separate being an anti-semite from objecting to Israel's behavor and actions in Gaza. But do you know what the OTHER Zionism is? Maybe you've heard Bob Marley talk about Zion in his music. It's not the same thing.

Right next to Crypto.com Arena (RIP Staples Center), stands two abandoned and unfinished high rise apartment buildings that have essentially become an art installation, covered almost entirely in graffiti. The tags are a who's who of the LA graffiti scene, including pieces by some of the most well-known artists in the city. But why were these buildings abandoned, how did the artists even get up there and what is the mayor going to do about it?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If Beyoncé got dementia and couldn't remember her lyrics, but you already sold tickets for the tour, should you cancel it? Who do you replace her with? Solange is amazing, but is she BEY? What about H.E.R.? Or Jazmine Sullivan? Or do you stay the course and run the risk of Bey absolutely bombing? THIS is the issue facing the Democrats... Oh, and someone finally tried to kill Trump.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Israel has a coalition government, which means no political party has the numbers to achieve a majority in the parliament. This matters because it gives some clarity on Benjamin Netanyahu's thinking as he tries to appease all of the various parties within Israel's parliament.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Trump beat the brakes of Joe in that debate, that's just a fact. But with Trump's sentencing hearing still scheduled to take place before November, America will officially have its first convicted felon running for President.

Whew, the electoral college is a TRIP! It's wild to imagine how much could be different in presidential politics if we went to another system - popular vote, ranked voting, etc.

sorry man, but your idea of "the world" in relation to Russia is extremely US-centric and naive. That "world", just to start with, does not include south America, Africa and most of Asia.

that's some hardcore projection going on in that. strength and nuclear threats is the only thing the US understands, hence why north Korea still exists and Syria effectively doesn't. when the US is not in play, Russia does diplomacy just fine, take brics for example. so how goes the old saying, it's not them it's you.

Man... this show has fallen off lately. It feels like Prop isn't doing any prep or research and is just improvising his takes without forethought. I keep coming away from episodes feeling like he never made a point or an argument. I hope that changes.

You can only empathise with people who look like you? You think you have some sort of special understanding of the horrors of Yemen or Sudan? Seriously, with every ounce of honesty I have, go FUCK yourself you arrogant little cunt.

Absolutely brilliant analysis. I wish I could make this specific episode mandatory listening before any American is allowed to express an opinion on current affairs in Russia and/or Ukraine.

Prop, you have an amazing mind, an educators' mind. In fact my 16 & 18 year olds, are listening with me. They say they'd of enjoyed going to their classes if they'd had teachers like you.
