As we continue tracking the progression of John's cold, poking fun along the way, we get into the National Day Calendar to start out the show, talking Girl Scout cookies and Coke, along with a check of the History Book with Sam. In Idiocracy for today, the guys chat about tonight's SCOWI debate between Susan Crawford and Brad Schimel, and also get into tariff talk - what people are resorting to doing now that prices are rising. Returning to the topic of musicians protesting from the last half hour, we take a trip back to 2003, listening to a section of Pink's "Dear Mr. President." We wrap the first hour with a shout out to the land down under, as we have a listener today in Australia!
