John and Gordy kick off today's show with talk about car headlights. John is apparently in such a daze that he didn't even notice he drove in with his lights off! We tackle the National Day Calendar, and trot through Today in History with Sam, before welcoming on Dr. Tim Slekar of BustED Pencils for his weekly appearance. We chat about Ryan Walters, Oklahoma State Superintendent, and the new Oklahoma state standards - asking teachers to teach The Big Lie of the 2020 election as part of curriculum! Closing out, Tim covers his newest episode - more on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion - and the good and bad of a state's rights to choose whether to teach it.
