Today on the show:

We opened the lines to ask you about our political moral compass… Pardons for $50 million …Calling Putin a humanitarian… vicious political ads… ICE detentions… on and on. Post-Trump, will we ever find our moral north star again?

Then it’s Am I the A-Hole: What’s the earliest possible time it’s appropriate to leave a function, say a kid’s birthday party? How long do you have to stay at an event before it’s OK to slip out?

Listen in to find out!
