No safe (David) Harbour

It turns out the strangest thing was David Harbour all along. At least that's according to British pop star Lily Allen's blistering and diverse new album West End Girl. It chronciles a five-year marriage, triste with polyamory, and an unsurprisingly messy divorce. This week on Dingus of the Week, hosts LYZ LENZ and ZACHARY OREN SMITH argue over whether the pussy palace was ever a dojo. Come for the dingus stay for Halloween traditions, the politics of feeding children, Zach getting taken down a peg, wage theft in an era of ICE raids, and the wonders of 4 a.m.DINGUS OF THE WEEK is a weekly comedy news podcast where writers Lyz and Zach light a fire under the American rogue's gallery to see who comes spilling out.
