This Week In Nope

The best thing about a cleanse is ending the cleanse--and thankfully our Trump cleanse is over. This week, Rachel reveals how the Trump administration is blocking her efforts to gain German citizenship, and we explore the technological ineptitude of Paul Manafort’s legal team and Leonardo da Vinci’s unexpected involvement in the Mueller probe. Meanwhile, the New Year’s resolution crowd is wreaking havoc at Chopt and undermining the spirit of eating salads. Also: people are blindfolding themselves for the #BirdboxChallenge and staging confusing gummy bear concerts for the #HariboChallenge; Wikifeet gets to the bottom of an AOC podiatric Instagram mystery; Saudi Arabia develops push notifications to inform women that they are divorced; Martin Scorsese finds himself embroiled in a dumpling scandal; Ellen Degeneres inserts herself in the Oscars-hosting drama and Eric Trump’s Twitter feed; and a women’s sexual health company becomes the La La Land of CES.   HEAR US ON ITUNEShttps://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/this
