Matthew & James discuss the shows portrayal of difficulties faced by the Ugandans and the missionaries.  They wonder how accurate the portrayal is.  James recommends a You Tube video showing the work of a Latter-day Saint Missionary in theUK.  Matthew decides he loves the bass line of this song.  This is the first song that has LOTS of swearing in.  Matthew & James navigate this without swearing!
