When there’s a 27-year age gap between lovers, you have to expect people are going to be confused, right? Only if you’re self-aware, I guess. Are Chris Stanley and Bret LaBelle self-aware? Unknown.

Next, Megyn Kelly, the Megan with the worst possible spelling of the name, has picked a fight with Taylor Swift. Why? Because she needs attention, and the best way to get it is anger. Will Taylor take the bait, or just live her life? Unknown. 

That discussion leads to a new update on an old story Jake told: The Guardian is reporting that American settlers on Palestinian lands is causing most of the violence there. Jake says personal experience says that’s true.

Then, everyone’s favorite billionaire is back in the news; Elon Musk is not just doubling but tripling down on his twin middle finger approach to wooing investors. Not only did he invite ignorant firebrand Alex Jones back to Twitter, he also held a town hall meeting with Alex, Andrew Tate, and Vivek Ramaswamy, three of the worst people on the planet.

Well done, Elon. 

Following that, a question: has Russia lost 87% of their troops? Maybe. They’ve also replaced them all, and added to their numbers, so what’s the big deal? Even if the new troops don’t have training, they can still overwhelm with volume. 

Finally, the presidents of several major universities testified before congress, and things did not go well.

(And, quickly, a shout out to Luke Combs, for being awesome.)

Idiots on Parade: we mock the news, so you don’t have to.

Tune in and get your giggle on.
