Summary
John, the Duchess, and Producer Mike return for another live-recorded session in the Bunker — and Episode 396 earns its title the hard way. Between a deep dive into overloaded coffee drinks and a running gag about caramel macchiatos, the crew covers a full slate of stories that range from baffling to chilling: viral pizza politics, RFK Jr.'s war on Big Coffee, Iranian drone threats, a police officer accused of exploiting a handcuffed woman, two separate acts of domestic terrorism, and Jill Biden finally telling her side of the 2024 story. It's a long one — and worth every minute.
