It’s a heaping helping of tossed salad, scrambled eggs, and civil fraud here in Seattle. We give her 24 hours, Rep. Pramila Jayapal gives us the world. Lovett doesn’t really get Seattle, so the audience uses Fraiser to help explain its appeal. Madeleine Smithberg talks Letterman, Stewart, Carson and French Onion Dip. And we do rapid fire rants, high notes, and a check in with the Batman to Seattle’s Gotham: The Green Jacket Lady. Thank you, Moore Theatre! For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

The Errors tour heads to Charlottesville as Trump violates one gag order and evades another.

We help give Charlottesville a little brand refresh because… well you know why. If Republicans come begging for help to elect a Speaker, we have demands. And rants on the hot pop culture topics you’ve been begging for: Ancient Greek poetry and neoclassical French architecture. For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.
