Fake The Nation

94. The Candy Man (w/ Tom Brennan, Christian Finnegan)

Comedians Tom Brennan (Electoral Dysfunction) and Christian Finnegan (The Fun Part) join Negin to chat about the probes into EPA chief Scott Pruitt’s conduct and the allegations against Trump’s Veterans Affairs pick Ronny Jackson. Plus, they chat about Cynthia Nixon running for governor of New York and revisit their college admission essays. This episode was recorded on Wednesday, before Jackson withdrew his name from consideration for the VA job. This episode is sponsored by Tripping.com (<a href="http://www.tripping.com/FAKE" target="_blank">www.tripping.com/FAKE</a>).

Hosted by Negin Farsad, Fake the Nation is all the comedy about politics without any of the politics about politics. Every week Negin and a cast of her funniest, smartest and most politically astute friends (John Fugelsang, Lizz Winstead, Dean Obeidallah and others) gather 'round the political roundtable to break down the news, make you laugh, think, and deliver a gut punch to the American political system.
