Biden Commutes Death Penalties

Joe Biden has commuted the death sentences of 37 out of the 40 people on federal death row. Mike discusses the remaining three. We’re joined by stand-up comic Ophira Eisenberg, host of the Parenting Is a Joke podcast, to explore child-rearing and podcast-naming philosophies. Also, Bashar al-Assad’s seasonally relevant theme song, and how it has been appropriated by the Koreans.    SUBSCRIBE  We offer premium subscriptions, including an AD-FREE version of the show and options for bonus content.    The Gist is produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara    Email us at [email protected]  Subscribe to The Gist’s YouTube Page  Follow Mike’s Substack > Pesca Profundities  To advertise on the show, click here  Learn more about your ad choices.
