"Biden is president and nothing is different." Recorded the day before the inauguration of Joe Biden, we at the Epoch discuss our feelings and expectations for the next four years. Will Kamala become Madam Cop Vice President? Does Joe even know what's going on? What is the Chairman of the Budget Committee? Is there any hope in the two party system? (answer: no.) We ponder these questions, plus the local news, fire birds in Australia, dinosaur buttholes, death metal lyrics, Žižek, and a preview for a second installment of The Bat Signal.
