You know how it is: one moment you're hanging out in a hot tub full of intellectual luminaries, and the next thing you know, someone passes you... an open letter. What're you gonna do, not sign it? In front of all these people? In this hastily-produced episode (ed note: sorry about the dog barking), Kat and Phoebe discuss the now-notorious Harper's open letter in defense of free expression, the hidden illuminati messages therein, the massive blowback against its normie signatories, and how our membership in this elite intellectual club has (not) changed our lives.
