John and Gordy are back in the studio after a long winter's nap last week! They begin by remembering Jimmy Carter who passed away yesterday, and get into John's TV recommendations from over the last week. We of course need to cover the National Day Calendar, and speedrun Today in History with Sam before we get into another edition of Idiocracy. They talk toys, and how offshore production is cutting down on availability, and US jobs. To find out why, the guys take a trip back in the Time Tunnel, to 2005, where we hear about jobs needing skilled workers going elsewhere. Closing out, we get into the latest from Elon Musk, where he says that US workers are to stupid (though in not so nice of terms) for them to have the jobs they used to.
