Also On This Episode

This episode features a clip from Marc Maron’s latest HBO comedy special, From Bleak to Dark, where he outlines a strategy to win over Christians by rebranding abortion clinics as “angel factories”. It may be a joke, but I think the plan could be just crazy enough to work. Mental note: From now on, always refer to Planned Parenthood and their ilk as angel factories.
