Will explains why we vote in November, on Tuesdays, over a more efficient day like Trumptadurday (assuming a Trump victory). Then the guys talk about why we may not get the results of the election on November 3rd, and why it's important to not panic! Don't panic, is not only the name of this episode it's a helpful lesson from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.  The guys finish up their discussion by pontificating on what states are necessary for Trump to win a second term, and Josh gives his last pitch to voters about how to get through this election season while maintaining your sensibility. It's an educational show that you will want to listen to before 7 pm Eastern time on November 3rd.
