The Nose Gets Out

The number-one movie in America this week is a horror-comedy with a 99% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. This might be the first week that that's ever been true in the history of Rotten Tomatoes, horrors, comedies, and America. Jordan Peele's Get Out has been called "the satirical horror movie we've been waiting for, a mash-up of Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? and The Stepford Wives that's more fun than either and more illuminating, too." The Nose weighs in.

And then... White House counselor Kellyanne Conway put her feet up. On the couch. In the Oval Office. And we're just as surprised as you are, but it turns out The Nose has a fair amount to say about the topic.

GUESTS:
