The Week That Was The Daily Whatever Show
November 10 - 15, 2025
If you’ve been doomscrolling your way through November, you’re not alone. This week on TDWS, Dana and I tackled everything from political fuckery to media malpractice to the small glimmers of sanity that somehow broke through. We had killer guests, fiery discussions, and more than one moment where we had to remind ourselves to breathe. Here’s the full rundown of what we covered from 11/10 to 11/15 — so you can catch up, stay informed, and hopefully laugh instead of cry.
