It's episode 69, y'all, let's get sexual. I'm not sure how explicit I can make this episode description, I'm sure the SEO for this episode will be shot anyway. Nevertheless, enjoy an overly-academic psychosexual analysis of a dead guy, and Brooke's incredible writing skills. This is a good one, though maybe not one to listen to in mixed company.

So like the answer is clearly no, because Vance is Catholic. Right? Jake and Brooke dig into the truth - and, more interestingly, the propaganda. Warning: we talk about American politics. This is as close to a "midterm" episode as we will get I promise.

Good morning/afternoon/evening to you, dear reader. Today, Jake and Brooke take a step back, take a breath, and laugh at the weird world of Christian Kids Media. Come for the nostalgia, stay for the donut man song. It's an unironically fun one today, I think we all deserve it.
