John, Gordy, and Sam kick off their Friday show a bit sleepy, so they talk Public Sleeping day and the rest of the National Day Calendar. We chat with Pam Jahnke from the Midwest Farm Report about frozen federal funds for state creameries, and after the break jump into Idiocracy. Today we're talking some breaking Idiocratic news: Russia is working to rebuild a network of spies, under the cover of diplomats (you can't make this stuff up!). We listen to a rant from Texas representative Jasmine Crockett calling on Trump to tell the truth about Russia invading Ukraine, and also to Bill Burr comparing Musk and Hitler. (a cut we played yesterday with some naughty words in it, now taken out.) The guys touch on Musk's effort to take over Verizon's contract with the FAA, a bit of collusion between SpaceX and it's oversight agency, no? Wrapping up the show, we get the Daily Show's take on Trump's Gold Card, and also hear a speech by Representative Melanie Stansbury, angry at King Trump, with a distaining comment by MTG.
