Summary

Comedian, writer and talk show host Mary Houlihan is back! Mary shares insights from cosmetology school, explains why Tim Dillon might actually be more helpful than your favorite Hollywood liberal who posts trans flags but won't sign anything, and makes a compelling case for why shame-based persuasion is about as effective as a car in an oubliette. The conversation meanders through topics like why famous people are weirdly silent about genocide, how fighting with people online is basically the political equivalent of stress-eating cheeseburgers, and why more leftists should steal Joe Rogan's audience instead of just complaining about him.
