Black Sabbath's "Mob Rules" is like a prophecy come to life, 42 years after they dropped that album. In this episode, Brad and David dive headfirst into the dumpster fire that is our current political circus. It's a choose-your-own-disaster situation: you've got Kamala Harris and Tim Waltz playing hide-and-seek with the public, while Trump's out there saying whatever pops into his head. In other news, Bobby Kennedy Jr. got mixed up in some sexting shenanigans, and the NYC mayor is getting indicted over...airline upgrades. Brad and David also take aim at the media's fun-house mirror version of reality, where what you see depends entirely on which political team you're rooting for.

Another week, another attempt on Trump’s life. It sounds crazy, but a substantial percentage of polled Democrats aren’t troubled by the fact that there have been two assassination attempts on former President Trump.
