484. There Is No App For Democracy (w/Ophira Eisenberg and Mary Houlihan)

This week on Fake the Nation, comedian and host Negin Farsad, is joined by comedian Ophira Eisenberg (Parenting is a Joke podcast) AND the comedian/podcaster Mary Houlihan (The Mary Houlihan Show). They discuss a school in Maine that punishes kids with hikes instead of detention. They also talk about how Gen Z is refusing to fall in line on "work emergencies" - "This is PR, not ER," as they might say. They look into the George Santos affair - his incredible lies and incredible pardon - as well as the opposite of all that, the No Kings protest and what it means for resistance to look and feel like a costume party. And finally, Instagram's teen controls are not working according to a new report, so what gives?
