After touching on the College Associated Minor League (CAML) football championship, John Boland and Timothy Cordes launch into CAML football trivia.

We preview upcoming guests including Ed Davis, the former Boston Police Commissioner.

John marvels at the absurdity of the Buddies needing to talk about the U.S. seeking to acquire Greenland, and they compare it to a bad Hollywood plot.

They review Greenland’s strategic importance and acknowledge the damage to NATO that could result from direct military action. Tim asserts that there are distinct types of force and other ways to pursue U.S. interests in Greenland. The Buddies struggle to identify the eight wars that President Trump claims to have ended.

Tim’s whack-job, the ACT, is colluding to hide students’ poor math skills and worsening attention.

John’s hero has donated gallons of blood.

We close with the words of Dr. Martin Luthur King Jr.
