Tim mocks Rand Paul's appearance briefly, then introduces a bizarre Arkansas Department of Health vaccine ad targeting 'hustlers' and street entrepreneurs, questioning its racial undertones.
- Tim mocks Rand Paul's hair as out of control and says he looks like Fievel.
- Tim questions why Rand Paul is the spokesman for libertarian causes when he looks like he's trying to sell a Dodge Dart.
- Arkansas ran a vaccine outreach ad on YouTube targeting the Black community, acknowledging they don't trust vaccines due to the Tuskegee experiment and government history.
- The ad features a man claiming he's a hustler entrepreneur who sells things and had to get vaccinated to stay safe in his work.
- Tim finds the ad's framing uncomfortable and asks why it feels racist when the pitch centers on being a hustler selling undefined products.
- Tim points out the ad's logic backfires: if you're not an entrepreneur, the pitch gives no reason to get vaccinated.
