If y’all feel like things are absolutely f*cking crazy these days… same. We’re taking a break this week! Today’s episode is a REBOOT of ‘The Comstock Act & Airport Pulled Pork’ from March 10. In the ep, we cover Anthony Comstock, the freaks (yes, HWF is ~resurrected~ in this one lol) who are trying to revive nineteenth century morality/obscenity laws, and the ethics and dangers of meat from LaGuardia.
Happy Easter if you celebrate!
