Despite agreeing before the show to do away with the National Day Calendar, tradition has forced our hand and we cover the fake holidays anyway to start out the show. We check in with Sam for Today in History, and take to the skies as we hear some of the backstory behind the drone sightings a few months ago. In other UFO news, we hear about the conspiracy that there's one in the ocean now (!), and as Idiocracy begins, we shift to a discussion with callers on immigration, and why it won Trump the election. Closing out the hour, in a preview of the story on replacing income tax with tariffs, the guys discuss coffee, and what Americans will do without their cup of joe.
