Who Let the DOGE Out?

Crooked Media
About this episode

This week, Elon Musk is the ghost in the machine, that ghost being Slimer. The Treasury and USAID go down, Democrats stand up, and Mitch McConnell tumbles every which way but loose. Jason Isaacs stops by to share his decades of villain experience. Andy Richter and Paula Poundstone turn over a big rock and recoil at the week in news, and Lovett and his guests hand-select their teeniest, tiniest, pettiest complaints to share with you.
