Everyone's favorite uncle so long as he isn't drinking at the reunion, <strong>US Sen. Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma</strong> will be taking her place. </p><p>This week on <strong>DINGUS OF THE WEEK,</strong> hosts L<strong>YZ LENZ</strong> and <strong>ZACHARY OREN SMITH</strong> take stock of the very sensible dog stomping boots Mullin will have to fill.</p><p><strong>DINGUS OF THE WEEK</strong> is a weekly comedy news podcast where writers Lyz and Zach light a fire under the American rogue's gallery to see who comes spilling out.
