Lovett or Leave It

Jonathan Groff's Rude Awakening

Lovett or Leave It joins the Netflix Is A Joke festival this week, but the show couldn’t be more serious, as Ashley Ray helps us figure out what is going on with the allies in a new edition of Gay News. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (Matt Walsh, of <a href="https://kastmedia.com/podcasts/second-in-command-a-veep-rewatch/">Second in Command</a>) stops by to discuss coup-life balance, and Paul F. Tompkins provides back-up for Dick Wolf’s latest, Law &amp; Order: Election Police. Lovett tries desperately to defend his dogelord and savior, Elon Musk, while the Rant Wheel spins, casting its all-seeing eye on the craven and undeserving. We’re looking at you, Abercrombie &amp; Fitch and crunchy peanut butter. For a closed-captioned version of this episode, go to crooked.com Lovett or Leave It.
