Sean is absent in this episode, stranded with his sticky icky in the Lands of Ass. He had a return ticket, but they deleted it. To make sure fans get the highest fidelity audio, I asked my Lyft driver, self-described "DJ of his generation", DJ Tim Changz to fill in. It was a huge mistake.

Speaking of people who ruin things, how about Street Art Abolitionists? Maddox's first problem defines, "all over the place," and attacks several fronts at once: people who cover up street art, people who censor murals in government buildings, people who don't have a clear premise. I'm not sure what we're voting for, but if a vote for Street Art Abolitionists is a vote for graffiti, I'm in. One thing this problem could have used is some help from my problem: Backseat Drivers.

In honor of my mother's birthday, I bring in her biggest problem in the universe: Backseat Drivers. We all know that backseat drivers are rude, self-important, know-it-alls with small dicks, but did you also know they cause one in seven accidents? That seems like an unbelievable amount, but I don't care because it proves my point. Instead of armchair psychologizing about the causes of this aggressive and deranged behavior, I bring in the diagnoses of actual, real-world psychologists who conclude academically and unanimously that backseat drivers are "assholes".
