Following the (depressing) results of the 2024 US presidential
election, Mehdi is joined by comedians Amanda Seales and
Francesca Fiorentini for a (funny) post-post-mortem on Democrats'
historic shellacking. They discuss the Harris campaign's many
mistakes, from cozying up to Republican neocons, to abandoning
Bernie Sanders-style populism, to inexplicably hiding their only
cool person, Tim Walz.

"Let's stop taking these lessons from Republicans about what the
Democrats did wrong," an incensed Francesca tells Mehdi. "You're
the ones who walked us in the lion's den of Trumpism in the first
place!"

The three also explore how Trump was able to increase his support
with Black, Latino, and Muslim voters, Joe Rogan's appeal to
"fragile men" on the internet, whether Hawk Tuah girl should
interview Noam Chomsky, and they list out their greatest fears of
a second Trump presidency, such as violent vigilantism and RFK
Jr. being in charge of milk. Yeah, MILK.
