Moynihan and Foster are back in Brooklyn for a two-plus hour Sunday night bull session, covering countless fascinating issues of minor importance. So what exactly did the lads talk about? That Kmele is the black Epstein? Or is he black John Lennon? That Gabourey Sidibe's name isn't Precious and those ads about her are fake? Something about the genius and importance of amateur archivists and translators--an example of a good internet subculture.

Did you know that if you blew things up in the 60s, you qualify to work as a college professor? Kmele and Racecraft at Columbia. Here comes the fear again! Why can't anyone talk about anything anymore? How the debate within the bubble ended. Are bubble people allowed to agree with Bloomberg? Is 2020 the year of the bad faith argument? Is Lambda school a scam? Can we please end rich people "diversity"? Privilege is complicated. Moynihan almost recorded a solo dispatch. Facebook sucks. Kmele loves Westerns and should probably watch "High Noon." More thoughts on how one should interview guests. Three of you nerds spotted the error in Vollman's novel! And lots more!

Plus emails from Adam in Norway, Jack the newbie, Mariano in Argentina, Jamie the Brit, Michael, Drew the Dutch nobleman, Wes the Texan, another Michael, and Anthony.

Exit music: Someone should sample this song.
