Ready for another ride and a little philosophy? Listen to Jake try to convince everyone that Cersei Lannister from GoT is a better human than Jim Halpert from The Office. We get to hear “mid-coitus”, “Jesus tattoo”, and “Imodium” in the same story, and Freddy’s wife Jenn causes Burger King workers to revolt by ordering 100 chicken nuggets. Buckle up and get ready for an interesting ride!
"But it is the same with man as with the tree. The more he seeks to rise into the height and light, the more vigorously do his roots struggle earthward, downward, into the dark, the deep - into evil."
- Friedrich Nietzsche
