Ben invites David Griscom and Matthew Whalan to break down Ben's recent debate with the neocon Jamie Kirchick, in which Jamie argues that protestors are bad because they cover their faces, and they don't feature many Jews at all.

Comedian and political commentator David Feldman (https://twitter.com/David_Feldman_) (http://davidfeldmanshow.com/) joins the show and lets us in on who he’s supporting in the presidential race. David Feldman is one of the great thinkers of our time, and he explains why he’s now supporting Joe Biden and Biden’s efforts to change nothing whatsoever.
Also, he supports a lot of other people who could be or were president—as long as we remember we’re better than all Republicans. That’s the primary goal. Along with not poking sticks at fascists, accepting Trump refusing to leave office by walking away with dignity, and behaving like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer and simply complaining just a tiny bit as Amy Coney Barrett is pushed into SCOTUS more quickly than anyone ever has been confirmed.

Last Monday, Ben was joined by Ben Udashen to read through Mike Huckabee's "kid's book" A Kids Guide To Fighting Socialism. They ran out of time before they could finish it and continued in the postgame, not because the book was particularly long but because there was so much to comment on.

Author Thomas Frank (https://twitter.com/thomasfrank_) (https://tcfrank.com/) joins Ben Burgis to discuss the history and the present day reality of the Democratic Party. Some of Frank’s books include, “Listen, Liberal: Or, Whatever Happened to the Party of the People?,” “What’s the Matter with Kansas? How Conservatives Won the Heart of America,” and “The Wrecking Crew: How Conservatives Rule,” among others.
Frank cofounded and edited “The Baffler” (https://twitter.com/thebafflermag) magazine. His most recent book is “The People, No: A Brief History of Anti-Populism,” which discusses how the term “populism” is currently used to describe the racist philosophy of Donald Trump and European extremists, but that populism is actually “an account of enlightenment and liberation; it is the story of American democracy itself, of its ever-widening promise of a decent life for all.”
