The Most Acid Trippy Episodes of The New Abnormal
Trump getting COVID. Antifa plotting to take down the White House. The truth about Russia disinfo. Bill Clinton impressions. The Lincoln Project scoops. The very first year of The New Abnormal by The Daily Beast has been a wild, trippy ride. It featured scientists, politicians, whistleblowers and the Daily Beast\u2019s best and brightest reporters. In this special episode, we compiled the most fun, most hilarious and most brutally honest clips from co-hosts Molly Jong-Fast and Rick Wilson\u2019s best episodes. We kick off with the duo talking about Trump getting COVID (and if Biden secretly planned it all), then go into a few clips from bonus episodes that only Beast Inside members had access to including what Rick and Molly got wrong about the election (and what Democrats should have done differently, like running celebrities, says Molly. Also, \u201care you out of your mind? Voter fucking registration,\u201d said Rick). Next, there\u2019s the episode where comedian Ike Barinholtz recounts the obviously real friendship he and Don Jr. shared while killing innocent animals and boating. We even had Rev. Raphael Warnock on the show before the special election run-off officially kicked off in November (\u201cKelly Loeffler was appointed appointed by Gov. Kemp to warm up the [Senate] seat before I get there,\u201d he jokes of his incumbent opponent) and Veep showrunner Dave Mandel\u2019s episode dives into why Mitch McConnell basically punched America in the penis. Masha Gessen drops a bomb on her episode, claiming that the country\u2019s problem is not Russian interference, it\u2019s the fact that we let it in. And of course, the greatest moment of TNA\u2019s history: when lightening literally struck Rick\u2019s house during a \u201cFuck that Guy\u201d segment.
