S5E9 - Abu el Stormy

The Worst Wing

Now we're really cranking through this shit: another twofer today because there just isn't really enough to talk about in any particular episode any more. Even though there is a LOT of content? In each one. Assisted suicide sets up a federalism crisis, which is not nearly as funny as the "Civil War was about industry" takes in the second episode. Ex-president Reagan Stand-in dies. A bunch of blinkered foreign policy bothsidesing, first in Sudan, second in Saudi Arabia, and the show really leans into the Christian/Muslim world dichotomy which sucks a lot. Music from Sinkane and Killer Mike. A great article about Sudan and nonprofit nationbuilding: https://nplusonemag.com/issue-39/essays/knowledge-will-not-save-us/
