Walz In Our Court

What's better than having an Olympic medal in pole vaulting? At least one thing, that's for sure. Kamala Harris (Allison Reese) stops by yet again to discuss picking the nicest of Vices. Hari Kondabolu and Pete Holmes are good sports, and even better philosophers, and we close out the show by honoring the man of the hour (and hopefully the next four years) Tim Walz with a celebration of dad-itude.
