Dear Humans,

Is it possible to find political common ground with your brother-in-law who loves Joe Rogan? That’s what we’re discussing today with author and former Obama speechwriter David Litt!

David recently wrote a new book about finding common ground with the brother-in-law in question. It’s called It's Only Drowning: A True Story of Learning to Surf and the Search for Common Ground and is out now!

We Discuss:

• The recently passed immigration bill and the implications of expanding ICE powers.

• Will there even be elections in 2026?

• Whether “being hopeful” is dangerously naive or necessary.

• Authenticity, populism, and George Carlin’s legacy in the age of Trump.

• Finding common ground, respecting differences, and surviving America’s “waves.”

• Ice cream!

We discuss:

• Brent’s incredible videos that screw with MAGA and his plans for the forthcoming Civil War.

• Jay Leno’s impressive stand up skills.

• Comedy club crowds want to laugh again, and Brent delivers both politics and personal stories.

• Alex Jones = Vince McMahon of conspiracy theories. A dangerous asshole, but undeniably theatrical.

• Brent’s love for horror movies, why he sees them as an escape from reality.

• What Brent and Jesus have been reading lately (And what closed captions God has read lately).
