About this episode
She wrote a column in the New York Times. She failed to mention her favorite podcast. She mentioned other podcasts. She texted us asking if she could come on the show to apologize. We agreed. Bari Weiss, the genial and gentle bête noire of woke culture, is back...hat in hand, asking for Fifth forgiveness. But she sticks around to discuss lots of other stuff:
- We are all Stasi agents now
- You're both Karens!
- A murder in Minneapolis
- Whose more powerful? Jack Dorsey or one of your senators?
- Should corporations be fact-checking politicians?
- Matt explains Section 230
- Moynihan rants about journalists being annoying
- A guest appearance from Nellie Bowles
- A really bad piece about white people and spices
- Kmele squeezes in some China/Hong Kong talk
- And some good news from Spencer!
