Do you have a job that requires you to be at a physical location? How analog of you. But that means you’re going to need to dress yourself presentably, appropriately, and somewhat stylishly. Analog is back, baby. There is one slight issue. Work clothes for men can be as drab, lackluster, and soulless as the labor market itself.

The late-night host kicked things off by looking at the former president’s attempts to get the nickname “Kamabla” to take off, which Oliver called “immediately confusing,” per the Daily Beast. He then turned his attention to the allegations that Walz changed the Minnesotan state flag to look more like an autonomous state in Somalia. Oliver found this a stretch. “What are you talking…

(Sophie Giraud/AMC) While that likely wasn’t the writers’ intention, that is how the series is starting to feel. And I don’t just mean body count-wise, as some of the characters that were present at…
