I came here for Michigan mention, and then get clotheslined by a joke about a book that is either much better or much worse than I remember it being after reading it in 6th grade.

2025-05-30 20:53:18 +0000 UTCDoes the order only include human mayors? Will we ever receive an episode on dog mayors, or animal mayors generally?

2025-03-27 17:24:15 +0000 UTCHaving a law named after you as a mayor may not be ideal. However, you do want a rule named after you as an athlete. Re. The Sean Avery Rule.

2025-03-27 17:07:46 +0000 UTCFuck, I'm a huge fuckup, I meant to share this story *months ago* so you could include it when you got to his episode. But ... Better late than never: I have it on excellent authority that Kwame Kilpatrick, while mayor, was spotted with his bodyguards at a 24 hour pharmacy on the SE side, in the Greeting Cards aisle after midnight, on the night before Mother's Day. What my witness was doing there at the same time is best left unsaid.

2025-03-27 16:03:37 +0000 UTCKwame's mom, although not a mayor, was also a colorful character. During her reelection to Congress when her son's scandals were front and center, she told her opponent in a debate that she wasn't qualified enough to hold her bra.

2025-03-27 14:33:42 +0000 UTCAs one of those kids who grew up in white flight suburban Detroit, this was an amazing episode. Worth mention that some Detroit reporters released a small book in 2010 of Kwame quotes from his time in office and his text messages. The title of the book? The Kwame Sutra. Best $8 I ever spent.

2025-03-27 13:37:56 +0000 UTCWhen you posited the existence of nonbinary mayors my brain instantly brought up the mayor of Silverton Oregon, Carla Fong aka Stu Rasmussen. I don't know if there's enough there to make a whole episode but he does have some amazing quotes. https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2008-nov-20-na-transgender20-story.html

2025-03-27 13:24:19 +0000 UTCVery concerning when Kwame Kilpatrick went on TV and recited the famous speech "Rivers of Sludge" to his constituency

2025-03-27 10:43:45 +0000 UTCFYI, there are a few nonbinary mayors to choose. Unfortunately, it appears they were good public servants. Tony Briffa and Owen Hurcum.
