(00:00:00) Intros

(00:01:18) Social Media - Facebook is in the news again for multiple reasons, including a massive outage last week (www.theverge.com/2021/10/4/227089…r-whatsapp-error) and a whistleblower that says they had research showing their product was harmful to some users and did nothing (www.cbsnews.com/news/facebook-whi…nutes-2021-10-03/).

(00:35:18) Sports - Chris is excited to finally have an NC State Baseball player to root for (​​apnews.com/article/mlb-sports-…a188e8a86249da7604d), Andre is frustrated that his Yankees lost (www.nytimes.com/2021/10/05/sports…card-playoff.html), the guys discuss Urban Meyer’s precarious predicament (buffalonews.com/sports/football/v…6ad1ed1cf5c0.html), and Chris explains why he dislikes Dan Orlovsky so much (www.reddit.com/r/ESPN/comments/n…ad_on_television/).

(00:59:47) Pop Culture - Chris went to see the Addams Family 2 (www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_addams_family_2) with his daughter and says it’s really just a movie for kids this time. Andre tried to watch Q-Force (www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/q_force) but just couldn’t get into it, in part due to the unexpected sex scene... this leads to a larger discussion of the quality of adult animation and the degradation of some shows over time.

The guys talk about how Saturday Night Live (SNL) is back, and with it, a story about Horatio Sanz (www.pastemagazine.com/comedy/saturda…l-assault-snl/) grooming and abusing teenage girls during his time on staff and the countless people who allegedly looked the other way.

(01:17:09) Politics - The guys discuss Trump’s position on running against DeSantis (www.youtube.com/watch?v=69f7Yw5c86g), Chris believes he may have figured out the Republicans’ reason for being both anti-vaccine and anti-mask, Andre wonders what will come of a court ruling on Omarosa’s NDA (​​www.thedailybeast.com/donald-trumps-…eement-omarosa), Chris takes issue with all the disasters facing California at the moment (www.usatoday.com/story/news/natio…hore/5986916001/), and they both get confused by the mask-mandate protestors in Chris’s backyard (www.wect.com/2021/10/05/parents…ject-mask-mandate/).
