Episode description
After Katie tells Jesse about her extremely traumatic 'vacation,' the hosts discuss a journalistically half-baked article about the Broadway star Alice Ripley and Jesse interviews Ethan Strauss on how the Great Awokening has washed over sports, producing some questionable journalism and cringeworthy ads. (Apologies to patrons that we couldn't get this to you as early as usual -- it was just a matter of not posting Ethan's announcement too early.)
