(We used a photo of speedskating legend Bonnie Blair because let's face it, a picture of Tide Pods wouldn't exactly stand out in your social feeds this week.) I hope this podcast finds you well. It's been more than a month since we got together to make jokes about dumb and serious things happening in the world. In the intervening time, AB's daughter has grown into a full-fledged cognitive genius, teens everywhere are poisoning themselves by eating packets of laundry detergent, and the Balls...

Like Barry Sanders and Daniel Day-Lewis before them, Chip and Joanna Gaines are walking away from the spotlight at the height of their powers.
