Roni meets Joe in real life, Ethan explains why the latest news on net neutrality sucks, Obama kinda-sorta changes the country's nuclear posture, and we get closer and closer to just ditching politics and becoming a food podcast.

We discuss the Pope's personal preacher, the Belgian burqa ban, and other things that are harder to alliterate.

Ethan and Roni gripe about Congress's behavior after the health bill passed, prognosticate the eventual undoings of China and the Catholic Church, and welcome Biden back into his groove.

Just hours before the passing of the health bill, we discuss illicit nuts, Obama's possible followup projects, political expediency in an election year, and the latest from North Korea.

Iran holds an election, big companies get snippy with their new government overlords, Israel disses Biden to his face, Rahm is exposed as "son of the devil's spawn," and last week's scandalous gay overtones continue.

Chile gets hit with the fifth biggest quake in recorded history, journalists examine Rahm Emanuel's super-pragmatism, the GOP continues its slow death, and Joe's cell phone rings twice.
