## Resource

I HOPE YOU LIKE HEARING THE PHRASE "TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME"!!!! Anyway, Rax King joined me this week to reacquaint herself with Bill Maher after over a decade away from occasionally watching him. Does she think he's gotten better with time? I mean I'm not even going to pretend like she does; she's immediately struck by how diminished she is. But he's not the only thing that's diminished: so is this fucking two person panel, as evidenced by the fact that this week the panel has, I cannot stress this enough, zero chemistry. But the highlight of the episode is his near histrionic response to Trump insulting him one time on the computer. Will we get his full response, or will we inexplicably have to wait two weeks? Well, you'll have to listen to find out (he says he'll do it in two weeks.) Also, if you hear distant laughing in the background my wife's friend Emma was over and she was probably laughing at something the baby was doing. It was NOT about the podcast, TRUST ME.
