In Chris Young’s fact check, Dax & Monica discuss whether reading an owner’s manual qualifies Dax to perform dermatology, why a mystery pill kept Monica awake awaiting death, the dangers of asking AI to identify poison oak, Joe Rogan’s alleged $5,000 tipping habit, and how designer clothes and tattoos can armor against class judgment.

About the Show:
Hi, I’m Dax Shepard, and I love talking to people. I am endlessly fascinated by the messiness of being human, and I find people who are vulnerable and honest about their struggles and shortcomings to be incredibly sexy. I invite you to join me as I explore other people’s stories. We will celebrate, above all, the challenges and setbacks that ultimately lead to growth and betterment. What qualifies me for such an endeavor? More than a decade of sobriety, a degree in Anthropology and four years of improv training. I will attempt to discover human “truths” without any laboratory work, clinical trials or data collection. I will be, in the great tradition of 16th-century scientists, an Armchair Expert.
