#T3BE 245 - Early Answer for Patrons

Woo, this was a rough L to take on a three-question losing streak; the right answer was (B) and Thomas picked everything but that, eventually settling on (C) alongside the coin.  Thomas is now 128-for-245 (52.2%), and the coin is 8-for-20 (40%).

#T3BE 244 - Early Answer for Patrons

Thomas did, in fact, talk himself out of the right answer (D), in favor of the wrong backup choice, (A).  His only comfort must be that the coin also got it wrong.  Thomas is now 128-for-244 (52.5%), and the coin is 8-for-19 (42.1%).

OA523: Is the CA Recall Unconstitutional?

Andrew breaks down the state of the recall, the porked polls, and Clark v. Weber! Paffrath still seems to be some sort of Democratic frontrunner, but how much of that is real and how much is poll pork? After breaking down the interesting arguments in the suit against the recall, we answer a liste...

We got to like zero of these stories but we still love Miss Ashley.

OA522: Roe v. Wade is Dead.

This is not an exaggeration. Sure, technically speaking the Supreme Court hasn't said the magic words "we overturn Roe v. Wade" but they used the shadow docket to effectively eliminate it. This is bad. Very, very bad. So what exactly happened? What's in the Texas law that SCOTUS allowed to stand?...

Thomas and the coin both porked this question (and Thomas porked a promising 2-question win streak) by picking B when the correct answer was A.  This is a tough one!  Thomas is now 127-for-241 (52.7%) and the coin is 7-for-16 (43.8%).
