Lovett or Leave It has returned to the top hundred on Apple's podcast chart in the United States, rising from 179th to 78th in a day. Its latest offering moves from Washington's impending investigations to a rather different question: what was drag like before it became pop culture?

Jon Lovett, the former Obama speechwriter and Pod Save America co-host, hosts the Crooked Media show, mixing political monologues with comedians, interviews and recurring games. The latest podcast release, "These Gays, They're Trying to Investigate Me!", brings Gianmarco Soresi, X Mayo and Murray Hill into that mix.

In the channel's newest long video, Lovett opens by examining the White House's warnings to Democrats over future investigations and the argument over Senate Democratic leadership. Then the conversation leaves Washington. Soresi recounts restrictions on what he could say while performing abroad and discusses his forthcoming Netflix special, God Forbid. X Mayo remembers working for the TSA when news of Michael Jackson's death reached passengers.

Hill's interview turns to his memoir, Showbiz: My Life as a Middle-Aged Man, and New York's drag scene in the 1990s. His account of cabaret-law enforcement comes with a succinct statement of purpose: "My platform was 'Let the kids dance.'"

The preceding podcast release, "For Your AIs Only", paired post-election politics with Guy Branum, X Mayo and theater director Sam Pinkleton. This time, the closing Rant Wheel gives the guests room to argue about Love Is Blind's producers and selective outrage over comedy.
