Your beloved hogs return to cover a story that seems like we made it up: Alec Baldwin’s tragic misfire on the set of Rust, the senseless death of rising talent Halyna Hutchins, and the toxic work environment that let it happen. Who is to blame? Baldwin? Assistant Director Dave Halls? Or 24-year-old set armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed? We turn to the least reliable sources to see what they think, like costume-designer-turned-scab-apologist Terese Magpale Davis, Gutierrez-Reed’s deeply soulless defense attorneys, and, of course, Baldwin himself.

To lighten things up, we treat the fans to a tight 4 from a rising star in the vaguely anti-vax comedy world: Jim Breuer, age 54. In an attempt to plug his own podcast and upcoming comedy special, he recently took to Twitter to post 4 minutes of, er, jokes, which mainly consisted of anti-vax bird squawks, piss, shit, fart, and puke sounds, and other weird, bad, and loud noises. Underneath it all, there were apparently some contrarian Gen-Xer points made. Listen kid, the podcasting game ain’t for everyone.

Blessedly we only have one political hog to inflict on you this time around: Republican Delegate-elect Tim Anderson. But he might be too hot to handle! (crowd groans)
