This episode features a lightly edited clip from PBS Newshour where author David Sedaris offers his trademark anecdotes to advise people to not confuse simple mistakes for microaggressions. As you’d expect, it’s pretty funny. And while not edgy, it’s perhaps still the edgiest thing I’ve ever seen PBS Newshour.

This episode features a heavily edited (and yet still very long) clip from Bob Garfield’s On the Media interview with Rutger Bregman, author of Utopia for Realists: How We Can Build the Ideal World, about why it is taking a generational shift to address global challenges like inequality and climate change. I recommend the whole segment.

This episode features a clip from Mediocre Films Black Friday Shopping List Prank. The content is really better watched I think. Also, I only realized after finishing the episode that I somehow managed to exclude “Daddy Butter”. For this I am very sorry.

This episode features a clip from this past weekend's great episode of WNYC's On the Media about American car culture. Specifically, Angie Schmitt of one of my favorite websites, Streetsblog, talking about the dark proliferation of the local news trope of guy-forced-to-walk-miles-to-get-to-work-gets-a-free-car. The whole segment is much better than my crude cut-down version, so don't miss it. The whole episode though, really.
