President Trump tweets that he might deliver his Republican Convention nomination address at "the Great Battlefield of Gettysburg" or from the White House. Should either site be polluted with partisan politics? Would Gettysburg send a message of civil war, or could it give Trump an opportunity to echo Abraham Lincoln's magnanimous, uniting spirit?

August 10, 2020 Galaxy Guardian Zoe Saldana Cries Apology for Playing Blacker Singer Nina Simone...in 2016
Galaxy Guardian Zoe Saldana (who played the green-skinned Gamora) cries while offering Steven Canals' Instagram audience a live apology for playing singer Nina Simone in a 2016 movie, because Simone was blacker than her. Saldana, who's of Haitian, Dominican and Lebanese heritage, says she should have tried hard to get another actress to play the role, rather than use make-up to simulate the Simone skin tone.

August 10, 2020 Beetle Eaten by Frog Survives: Is There a Way Out of 2020 for You Too? [Lightning Round]
On this episode...
00:37 Japanese beetle survives passing through a frog's digestive tract 90 percent of the time. Should President Trump fund a study on that beetle to find out if there's a way out of 2020 for you?
02:50 Baseball ratings down as players kneel to honor Black Lives Matter. Stephen Green desperately missed baseball, until they started playing again.
04:58 Florida has more positive COVID-19 tests at the same time that Florida has more hospital beds. Miracle? And is it fair to argue with facts and data?
08:23 "I'm not a communist." One contender in the Joe Biden veepstakes -- Rep. Karen Bass of California -- once expressed condolences to the Cuban people on the death of their brutal, multi-generational dictator, Fidel Castro. Will Biden announce: "I'm all about that Bass"?
11:42 Portland film center cancels showing of 'Kindergarten Cop' so Portlandians avoid the trauma of seeing police (who all are racists) magnified on the big screen. The local 'Karen' who protested the screening compared the Arnold Schwarzeneggar comedy to D.W. Griffith's KKK-glorifying 'Birth of a Nation' which she lumped in with 'Gone with the Wind', among racist films.

August 07, 2020 COVID-19 Cancel Culture: UConn 2020 Football Season Over Now, Others to Follow
The University of Connecticut cancels the 2020 football season due to the risk of COVID-19 spread. Are the UConn Huskies just the lead dog falling in an avalanche of others to follow? Will people take the pandemic more seriously now that it hits college football? Is it just another symptom of 'Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds'? And should a team that went 2-10 last year have waited until another team cancelled its season in order to avoid providing fodder for jokes and memes?

August 07, 2020 Minneapolis Police to Locals: Do What the Thugs Tell You, Prepare to Be Robbed
Minneapolis police tell locals you should do what criminals tell you, and prepare to be robbed of your iPhone or cash. Is this new guidance from a demoralized, soon-to-be defunded force, a rhetorical tool in negotiations with local politicians who seem eager to slash budgets and take cops off the beat? Or did someone publish mundane news in this inflamed context so that it seems related to the reaction to the death of George Floyd?

While most presidential poll stories have shown Joe Biden mounting a growing lead over Donald Trump -- some say insurmountable. But Rasmussen's latest poll of likely voters -- not mere registered voters -- shows Trump beating Biden, and besting Barack Obama's numbers at the same stage of his reelection campaign.
