Episode description

This week we talk about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump (or whatever that was). More importantly, we talk about the question of whether or not it is OK to make jokes about that event. Apparently Jack Black doesn’t think so. We aren’t sure we agree so we talk about what makes it OK to joke about something. Also please note: We recorded this a week ago and a LOT OF STUFF has gone down since then. So some of what we talk about is already out of date. So ignore the stuff about Biden, you know?

And if you want to make jokes about Biden quitting or about us talking about him on a podcast that went up two days after he quit, we are totally OK with that.

Also please note: The tragedy we refer to in the title is the breakup of Tenacious D over a joke.
