We welcome Josh back from his errand in the wilderness and catch up with the drunken frat party known as America. The frat prez took a cognitive test and couldn’t pronounce Yosemite. While frat brother Tom Cotton, Senator from Arkansas, initiated pledge week hazing with a bill to ban history teachers from discussing slavery. If you wanna pledge this frat, bro Tom will make you sing the song of American exceptionalism while they pour beer on your head. But the saucy boys aren’t buying it, we’re not pledging, and we’re not wasting a single craft brew on the nonsensical boast of American exceptionalism. Chris looks at the nefarious origins of colonial America (hint: far from exceptional), and Josh reminds us that power is what power does. Whether America, China, or the Ottoman Empire - like birds of a feather - empires march together in history, even when marching straight toward a cliff.
This week's music: Dehd, "Disappear"; U.S. Girls, "Born to Lose"; Jeff Rosenstock lyrics from "No Dream"
