Recorded August 26, 2020. Adam and Peter return to bring the flames. They mostly talk about the police shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wisconsin, the protests and Black resistance, and armed white racist terrorist Kyle Rittenhouse shooting 3 protesters, killing 2. Adam also talks about how California is (finally!) learning from Native American tribes on how to manage wildfires, which are becoming deadlier throughout the state.
