Obama's 2009 inauguration: 1 million people at the National Mall

Obama's 2013 inauguration: 1.8 million people

Trump's inauguration: 250,000 people

People STILL know they shouldn't be seen voting for Trump.

We need to see if Chemda was on a brand new pill that was invented for her brand new disease: a tumor.

I love the Research and Development argument. These poor pharmaceutical companies. They're barely scraping by!!!

So I'm thinking the persistent troll Adam from Hollywood is "Hollywood Adam" the ex-co-host of Nobody Likes Onions, right? He's still stalking KATG after all these years? 😂

Totally. It's like, Pharma Bro!!!

[Sparrow]

it would be cool if eradicating disease were a priority and we could give research and development grants to scientists to develop needed medications to feed into a public health service.

i'm not agin capitalism, but when you commodify illness and human relief from suffering, i feel squicky. it's the same way i feel about assigning profit dollars to the incarceration of our minority populations.

I voted for Misandry with Marsha because it not only made me laugh my ovaries out, it made me realize that I am a feminist. I laughed and I learned.

This was a close one for me because Shart Tank was so funny. Stephen is a natural host. The reason Marsha won over Stephen, for me, was because Kill All Men. I'd love to hear more of both.

I hate that I know this, but as an avid early listener of NLO I believe they called him Hollywood Adam because he missed an episode early on because he was out of town in Los Angeles. I assume they're not the same person but who knows.

Yes but NLO was based in Florida as far as I remember it was Tampa, and that he complained that he had to drive far to get to the place where they recorded. I know it could be another Adam from Hollywood, Florida but it definitely is a weird coincidence if so!
