Description

In Episode 25, Robert is joined by comedian Andy Beckerman (Couples Therapy Podcast) to discuss Ronald Reagan, Nancy Reagan and the AIDS crisis. When Robert started researching for this episode, he expected it would be a fairly straightforward episode about how homophobia and religious fundamentalism in the halls of American power led to an executive branch that fiddled while thousands of gay people died. The story he uncovered was very different, and somehow even more offensive, than the one he'd set out to research.

Andy Beckerman is extremely annoying and unfunny. I want to listen to the next two episodes about a very interesting subject, but am unsure because I'll have to listen to Andy for another two hours.

Were the detainment camps a thing when they were talking about cages for kids in kid sized handcuffs? was that a reference or coincidence?
