This Isn't Taught in School Fallout from the Super Bowl halftime show featuring Bad Bunny, calling it a historic mistake for the NFL. They cite new data indicating 10 million viewers tuned out during the performance, the largest halftime drop off in Super Bowl history. Clay argues that the league should choose English language performers with broader appeal to maintain this shared American cultural event. They also debunk online claims about “Spanish as an anti colonial language,” using a humorous historical sidebar about Spain’s actual colonial record. What is Fame? A lively discussion about the generational divide in celebrity culture, as Clay and Buck reflect on their inability to recognize modern influencers, TikTok stars, and even major music icons like Bad Bunny—highlighting how fame has splintered into isolated online “islands” rather than universal household names. They recount real-world encounters illustrating the dominance of YouTube influencers, such as MrBeast, and social-media mega-personalities with tens of millions of followers. The hosts argue that traditional celebrities no longer sway public opinion the way they once did, particularly among young men, which they believe Donald Trump effectively understood during his political ascent—contrasting him with political figures like Kamala Harris, who relied more on conventional celebrity endorsements. The Social Cost of Weed Alex Berenson explains why today’s high THC cannabis—often concentrated into vape cartridges reaching 60–90% potency—creates greater risks of psychosis, schizophrenia, and cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome. Clay and Buck discuss how marijuana use has become more widespread and publicly normalized, with smoke and odor now common on city streets, in hotels, and daily life. Historical examples from India, North Africa, and Mexico highlight societies where widespread cannabis use triggered cultural and governmental pushback. Berenson and the hosts compare cannabis to alcohol, arguing that alcohol—despite risks—is easier to “titrate,” more predictable in effect, and more embedded in social culture than THC.
