Why Tim Dillon is the Only Celebrity We Trust
Show Notes

As the U.S. has become more secular, we have been looking to fill the void of idolizing some higher entity. For thousands of years, many earlier civilizations, such as the Egyptians, Jews, Greeks, and Romans, all had gods and royalty placed on pedestals of worship. But America has been different. We are a democracy. There is no ruler; there is no mandatory U.S. state religion. You have the right to be an atheist here. Our theory is that we've replaced the role of traditional rulers and even gods with celebrities. So when our celebrity class fails us, let us down, and turn out not to be the people we thought and grew to love... What do we do? Who can we turn to or trust? That is what we hope to uncover in this episode.
