About this episode

The episode discusses Gavin Newsom's affair and the implications for his political future, alongside a conversation about the trend of 'strategic wrinkles' in cosmetic treatments.

The gang digs into Gavin Newsom's one-time affair after the woman in question — Ruby Rippey — published an account of the scandal in Vanity Fair. Will this affect Newsom's 2028 aspirations, or is this episode deserving of different comparisons than Eric Swalwell and Graham Platner. They also discuss the growing movement towards "strategic wrinkles," as those looking for cosmetic treatments now look for just enough signs of aging to not look unnatural.
