John and Gordy, despite vowing to not talk about it, kick off talking about the senate confirmation hearings for Trump's circus of a cabinet. To distract ourselves, we chat about hats and the National Day Calendar, and check the books for Today in History. Later in Idiocracy, we chat about how everyone on the internet is now an expert on wildfires, and also banter about the opposite element, water, with news of expansions to waterparks in the Dells. Wrapping up hour one, the guys look to foreign issues - Trump's threat to take over Canada and Panama.
