Chapo Trap House - 866 – Ronnie, Talk to Russia feat. American Prestige (9/9/24)

Derek & Danny of the American Prestige podcast join us to review the new film Reagan.

American Prestige is moving to Supporting Cast, keep an eye out for how to find them on their new platform: https://www.americanprestigepod.com/p/important-announcement-american-prestige
