Episode 230: Stone Age Mutant Mitchell Turtle

Episode 230 is here, and this week we’re asking the kinds of questions that somehow start as harmless hypotheticals… and end in full-blown societal collapse. What happens when every animal suddenly becomes as smart as humans and which species immediately starts the first war? If civilization had to reboot from scratch with only one profession left alive, who’s carrying humanity across the finish line? Could one U.S. state actually survive a battle against the other 49? And if every elevator suddenly had one mysterious extra button… are you brave enough to press it? Then we dive into one of the biggest headlines of the week following the sudden passing of Senator Lindsey Graham, the House’s vote to make Daylight Saving Time permanent (so maybe we can finally stop arguing over changing the clocks twice a year), and a judge’s sharp criticism of President Trump’s IRS lawsuit, saying he attempted to manipulate the judicial process in pursuit of a massive $1.8 billion claim.
