Lee and Simon don't quite talk about bribery and corruption, and instead think through if the world is uniquely crazy in this moment.
Some other details: Simon is gifted an advent calendar; being bribed and/or blackmailed; John Wick (pre-emptive revenge); illegal Russian websites; how shit the weather has been; how small human beings are; the wonkiness of the world; Simon's clunk on 9/11 (and not quite censoring the thought); the 24 hour news cycle; Martin Luther's 95 theses (in 31 October 1517); emergence of a Protestant Church; German accents (and a bit of German itself); JFK calling himself a doughnut; the telegraph and the historical slowness of communications; queques (Portuguese lemon-orange cakes); being content creators; closing the lid when flushing; fecal plumes; and a big apology for the poo talk at the end.
