*Preview* LEAVE. BRITNEY. ALONE.

**This is a preview of our premium show, The Plug. To listen to the full episode, go to patreon.com/thedrain.** Today we're discussing a few bizarre California stories, including: Britney Spears's incredible wherewithal in responding to a suspected drinking and driving incident in southern California. A registered sex offender posting up at a church across from a school (free link) while he holds a press conference for his mayoral run in Fresno. A good deal of MMA discourse, related to Lou Holtz and a couple of our Sacramento faves (which is what makes this town so oddly special).
