Season 6 Episode 6: Tucker Does Moscow (ft. Deep State Kuba)
Tucker Carlson interviewed Vladimir Putin. Pro-war libs think Carlson should be locked up as a "traitor." Actual Putin apologists--few and far between in the general population, but if you look in the right corners of the internet you can find plenty of them!--ignored a lot of what Russia's ultra-right-wing, militaristic president had to say. Our resident expert on Eastern European People, Deep State Kuba, comes by to provide a little clarity. Later, Conan Neutron joins us in the postgame for patrons to watch Ben Shapiro rank film franchises--it turns out his reasoning skills don't get any better when the subject turns from politics to movies. This should be a fun one.
