Whether you like it or not, you’re likely going to have to deal with a Fox Newz watching, Rush Limbaugh listening cranky relative tomorrow. You’ve been dreading it since the last holiday dinner because you know that he or she will be yelling at the clouds again and spouting well memorized RW talking points at the speed of light.

Lots of us have an “Uncle Bob” somewhere in our lives who treats us to an endless stream of hate-filled rhetoric, misplaced anger, memes and disinformation. We know where “Uncle Bob” gets it from, too.

So, join me below where we talk about dealing with “Uncle Bob”.

But first, a word from our sponsor.
