This week on Fake the Nation we talk about a French beach town that wants you to keep your clothes on. And, despite our better angels, we do in fact, talk about the Sydney Sweeney jeans ad. Plus, we discuss the Texas gerrymandering kerfuffle and what Democrats should do about it. We vent on Israel and Gaza and we end the show with a ridiculous conversation about Democratic presidential hopefuls. Spoiler, one of the panelists has had a beer with JD Vance. Comedian and host Negin Farsad is joined by comedian/podcaster Corey Ryan Forrester and comedian/podcaster Harry Terjanian.  Follow everyone! @NeginFarsad @coreyrforrester  @harryterjanian You can see her upcoming performance schedule at: NeginFarsad.com ——Rate Fake The Nation 5-stars on Apple Podcasts and leave us a review! * Follow Negin Farsad on Twitter [https://twitter.com/NeginFarsad?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor] * Email Negin fakethenationpodcast@gmail.com [fakethenation@headgum.com] * Support her Patreon [http://www.patreon.com/NeginFarsad]  ——Host - Negin Farsad [https://neginfarsad.com/] ——Producer - Rob Heath ——Theme Music - Gaby Alter See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy [https://art19.com/privacy] and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info [https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info].
