Only 95 days left until Election Day! Hi, I’m Geoff Plitt, and welcome to What You Need to Know, the brief, weekly newsletter where I share the best comedy videos I’ve seen all week. It will always be free, and you’re welcome to become a friend by following me on Twitter, Instagram, or TikTok, where I share my own jokes every week.

And now, the videos you came for:

3. More Ronny, this time covering how JD Vance is “weird”:

4. Finally, these “future headlines” by Bill Maher are just so good:

Thanks for reading! Have a great weekend.
