THIS WEEK'S QUESTION: US football player Colin Kaepernick recently protested against police brutality in America by taking a knee during the national anthem. So the question this week is: IS IT ACCEPTABLE TO DEBATE THE NATIONAL ANTHEM AND YOUR COUNTRY'S FLAG? YES or NO? This week we're joined by Mike Gamms, funny comedian and all-around solid dude. He shares some interesting anecdotes about his friend, Andy Dick. Also, check out Rucka's page while it's still his because he lost it in a bet, along with everything to his name.
