Quick Question with Soren and Daniel

Daniel and Soren discuss stolen jokes, Gordon Ramsay’s many forms, and the cursed experience of being photographed by someone who loves you at the exact wrong angle. Then they spiral into body-image math, shirtless Jeff Bezos, Ryan Gosling’s unfair torso, and whether time travel would actually fix anything besides your ability to gamble on basketball.

Daniel reveals that one of Soren’s forgotten novelty songs has become part of his son’s bedtime rotation, which somehow leads to a long conversation about sitcom logic, student council politics, famous people they went to school with, and the absolutely deranged social etiquette of high school and college.

Topics include: Friends, Jersey Shore, theater kids, network procedurals, dorm room diplomacy, and the strange realization that nobody ever actually explains the rules of being young to you — everyone just sort of improvises and hopes for the best.

A New York Times crossword puzzle was accidentally unsolvable, which raises an important question: when something doesn’t make sense, is it broken, or are you just dumb?

Soren and Daniel talk puzzles (both kinds), people who follow rules vs. people who look for loopholes, and why car horns should probably be illegal or at least--lest we be branded authoritarian--exhaustible. Then later, would you be surprised to learn that Soren got into another fight? Or that Daniel is unprepared to talk about Wheel of Fortune?

All that PLUS Air Bud is Republican Coded and Soren is doing some facial hair things.
