#188: Met Gala, The Activist, Alone

Fashun is back! And we are kids in the candy store of the Met Gala. The lewks, the themes, the references, all of it unpacked in this week’s ep.

Away from the red carpet, a new reality show has activists pitted against one another but is it as bad as it sounds?

And we’re back in New York for a new show which teams Steve Martin and Martin Short together once again, and in the woods where we’re all Alone.
