Boomers Are Unkillable and Will Never Let This Go

Tim jokes that boomers have survived every disaster (9/11, financial crisis, cancer) and will treat COVID like a personal Holocaust story to lord over everyone forever, then mocks the death-toll predictions and complains about the glut of bad quarantine podcast collaborations.
- Boomers have survived every major disaster—9/11, the financial crisis, every kind of cancer—they're unbeatable.
- Tim dismisses the idea that COVID is the 'boomer remover'—some will die but the survivors will be insufferable about it.
- Boomers will talk about COVID the way people talk about the Holocaust, never letting it go and constantly bringing it up.
- They'll confront nurses saying they were on the 'front lines' of being racist in their own homes instead of at restaurants.
- Tim acknowledges the death toll projections may be revised down but respects people dealing with the crisis on the ground.
- His contribution to the pandemic effort: tweets, Instagram stories, maybe a TikTok dance, since he can't legally leave the house.
- Most shows right now are garbage with people on Zoom doing unfunny collaborations; his show is actually providing entertainment.
- Enough with guest interviews—comedians need to have an actual thought and articulate it instead of saving thirty colleagues from obscurity.
