About this episode

This episode features discussions on inflation, Texas, and the Epstein Files, along with guest appearances by Jerry O’Connell, Jay Pharaoh, and Zach Zucker.

Trump loves inflation, Texas hates screwworms, a new book reveals how much the White House was consumed by the Epstein Files. This week, Jerry O’Connell jumps between dimensions to talk Rob Reiner, reality TV and, of course, Sliders. Jay Pharaoh stops by to do some impressions with his good friends, Barack Obama and Denzel Washington. Plus Zach Zucker is down to clown... and play music without headphones.
