173: Skepticrat173 - Recorded Early Before the Roe News Edition

The Skepticrat

On this week's episode: New Jersey’s weed is as legal as it is expensive ... Madison Cawthorn’s existence continues to be the "free space" of political comedy ... And Twitter just got recalled for running a red light and killing a pedestrian. Also, we recorded this a week earlier than normal, and the news about Roe hadn't come out yet. We'll obviously be yelling about that next episode. But for now, enjoy the one podcast from this week that's not about real life Gilead.
