Mike and Scott recover from the technical glitches of last episode.  They listen to "A Black American" by Smokey Robinson, a very poignant and timeless poem that discusses the term "African-American" and how it waters down their "American-ness" all from the point of view of an ACTUAL Black American.  They talk about the Game Stop Fiasco in broken unintelligible attempts at understanding the stock market.  They touch on The War on Drugs and The War on Poverty and how they contribute to Mass Incarceration.  This and much, much more on Between The Lines!
