699: Communion Edition
Show notes
In this week’s episode, Trump's religious committee tries to DEI so they don't DIE, a preacher gets kicked off a flight after a complaint from a baby with kidney stones, and we’ll crack open a book that can’t be trusted around the couch enough to sit on the coffee table.
