Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs was a book that changed the way I look at pop culture. Thanks for a brilliant piece of analysis there. Would you consider doing a partner piece with updated pop culture (seeing as how the Real World is pretty much dead among others)?

Words, Words, Words was my favorite performance from you. How much literature (ie. Shakespeare, etc.) did you study prior to coming up with those songs/skits?

During the Watergate series, I kept hearing your commentary and thinking, "Hmm, this sounds familiar..." referring to the current day and administration serving. For instance, the episode dealing with Spiro Agnew seemed incredibly poignant. "If you get rid of Nixon, you have to deal with Agnew..." seems eerily similar and paralleling a lot of arguments I see today regarding Trump and Pence.

Was that the idea/your intention in wording as such? The Watergate series was so enlightening beyond what I learned in history classes throughout school, and I genuinely thought I knew the scandal well before listening to your pod. I haven't started the Clinton ones yet, but look forward to doing so. Great pod for long drives and the like, I have to say. Thanks for all your work!

Sounds like a Jezebel article.

Which is why dangling pardons should be prosecuted as part of obstruction.
