This week on Fake the Nation, comedian and host Negin Farsad is joined by comedian/writer Benari Lee Poulton and host of NPR's On Point, Meghna Chakrabarti. Together, they wonder why billionaires love owning sports teams and a psychology professor who can tell you which are the best years of your life. They look at the very ongoing Epstein Files and the strange bedfellows it has wrought. And finally, they pour one out for the recently deceased penny.
If you're in Washington DC come see Negin and Fake the Nation regulars Corey Ryan Forrester and Ophira Eisenberg on Dec 12 for a very fun night of standup. Get your tickets here:
