It’s America’s stupidest podcast — think NPR for dummies. Ed McGonigal returns with comedians Roger Weaver and Jason Hazelwood to roast the week: Jimmy Kimmel’s five-day “national crisis,” a Saudi Arabian comedy festival, Bad Bunny headlining the Super Bowl, biscuits-and-gravy strip-club nights, rapture rumors, conjoined-twins marriage questions, Colonel Sanders’ “secret recipe,” Baywatch’s reboot, Denise Richards making sandwiches for Charlie’s guests, and why it costs $60 just to park at an Eagles game.

Stick around for Publishers Clearing House going bust, longevity drugs, and a Robert Redford tribute.
