Ironically, Ellen is back to drinking 19 Crimes wine this week which is actually kind of appropriate considering the 18 crimes Manafort committed, leaving room for that 1 wild card crime that he's yet to be exposed for. Lexi is drinking an old bottle of Cupcake Rose for no other reason than it was convenient. Starting the episode with a controversial shout out to their Muslim listeners- Happy Eid al-Adha! And ending with a controversial conversation about the Catholic church!
