Episode 48 - Thoughts, Prayers, and Pokemon Go

Justin and Doug fly solo this week and begin by briefly talking about stand-up comedian Jim Jefferies’ newest special, Freedumb and then talk about how society seems obsessed with hopping online after tragedies to offer their thoughts and prayers. Doug gives a pretty terrible description of how Pokemon Go works and asks Justin if it’s okay to post about fun things on social media when terrible events are happening. The two heroes talk about navigating social media during tragedies and what it takes to have meaningful and respectful dialogue online. Doug and Justin then consider what it would take to unite the human race under one banner and what would be lost or gained in the process. Things are wrapped up with a throw-down with Deadshot vs. Punisher.
