502. Release the Cringe! (w/Ramzi Fawaz and Jenny Zigrino)

This week, comedian and Head Chatterbox Negin Farsad is joined by Professor of English at University of Wisconsin Madison and host of the podcast Nerd from the Future, Ramzi Fawaz. She’s also joined by a comedian you’ve seen on HBO, Dropoout and wherever you get your laughs, Jenny Zingrino. This week, they look at the possible comeback of protest music and on the political front, they can’t stop/won’t stop talking about the garbage that emanates from dear leader. And finally, they dive into the cultural boom in the prediction markets that let you bet on anything. Enjoy!
