They mock the New York trust-fund grift of fake ethical brands like 'designer slinkies,' then connect it to why Americans cheer military flyovers at football games and the entertainment industry's inflated self-importance during the WGA/SAG strikes.
- Tim explains why Americans cheer when jets fly over NFL games: because they're not bombing us.
- We love the military because they do things we don't want to know about, but it keeps us safe and makes us rich.
- The entertainment business inflates its own importance, especially regarding strikes most people outside the industry don't even know happened.
- Tina Fey's Sarah Palin sketch on SNL marked the moment Hollywood made Americans see her as incompetent.
- Adam McKay said he doesn't want to make certain comedies anymore because the empty guys in suits are the same ones who started the Iraq War.
- Tim argues that you can't give movies meaning beyond what they actually have, citing Don't Look Up as an example of a film that sucked its own dick.
