Hosted by Negin Farsad, everyone's favorite Iranian American Muslim Comedian Podcast Host with Black Hair and Red Glasses, Fake the Nation is a comedy show that isn't afraid to talk about news, culture, and humanity’s weirdness. Every week Negin is joined by her funniest, smartest, and most politically astute friends. People like Samantha Bee, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Paula Poundstone, Margaret Cho, Larry Wilmore and others. They’ll make you laugh, think, and deliver a gut punch to the country we all love, America. It's like a really fun dinner party where nothing is off limits but you don’t have to pretend to like salad.

468. An Episode That Pairs With Hot Dogs (w/Dasha Burns & Zach Sherwin and Pete Dominick & Faiz Siddiqui)

This week on Fake the Nation we give you two fun/ridiculous/insightful conversations from the vault. We discuss a study on the type of people who buy into pseudo-profound bullshit. Yes, they studied this and host Negin Farsad gets pretty worked up on the issue as she discusses it with comedian/podcast host Pete Dominick and journalist/author Faiz Siddiqu. Also, Dasha Burns & Zach Sherwin join to discuss new statistics that show how violent crime is FALLING across America. What does it all mean? Enjoy! And we hope you're having a sweaty, hot-dog laden July 4th!

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
