209 - "And The Winner Is..."

It is upon us: that very rare occasion when we unlock a Patreon episode for the masses. 🎁🎁🎁 If you are clever and don't want to miss future locked episodes, <a href="https://www.patreon.com/wethefifth" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">subscribe here</a>. --------- Rather than our typical bullet-pointed show notes, we'll keep this one short and sweet. Because try as they might to pull the conversation away from Kmele's bravura performance on Real Time with Bill Maher, the lads just couldn't manage it. Although they do respond to a listener email about the Pet Shop Boys...and Kmele does says the word kerfluffle. That is all.&nbsp; Enjoy.

Analysis, Commentary, Sedition. @wethefifth

From their enclave in midtown Manhattan, Michael Moynihan (Vice), Matt Welch (Reason), and Kmele Foster (Freethink) dissect the news, interrogate guests, and question just about everything. The topics are broad, the insights are deep, and the jokes are off color. Reform the system, or burn it to the ground? They discuss... @wethefifth www.wethefifth.com
