Trigger/Content Warning: Race and Police Brutality come up for just a second in this episode of Taxi, and we discuss how nonsensical it was. The discussion lasts for just about 2 minutes, but it's there.

This week on the podcast, Leo and Tim dive into "Taxi," an ensemble sitcom about a group of cab drivers that work for a tyrannical boss played by Danny DeVito.
