22: The People vs. Big Pumpkin™

Ch-ch-changes are afoot, listeners dear! Temperatures have dipped, the air is crisp, and the trees are awash with scarlet, sienna, and gold as fall hath arrived! J&G converse about icon and legend Hoda Kotb leaving NBC’s Today; Chappell Roan’s Kamala “controversy”; and NYC's biggest clown, Mayor Eric Adams. Speaking of clowns, Miss Harleen Quinn herself (Lady Gaga) dropped her Joker Folie à Deux companion album, Harlequin. Later, the boys discuss whether fall is HOT OR NOT! Is the old or new formula of Starbucks’ legendary pumpkin spice syrup better? Which is the superior autumnal holiday, Thanksgiving or Halloween? Finally, our hosts discuss the stars of the moment: Moo Deng, the baby pygmy hippo and Pesto, the penguin chick with gigantism. What’s Good?
