The guys tackle follow up to point out that Ford (not Rockefeller) succeeded Ted Agnew as Nixon's Veep. The Texas Observer has the right take on the Dems penchant for the new hotness over laying the ground work for the future of their party (Because they echo what Dad said last week),

Then, as they pay tribute to George Bush (41), they discuss the nature of faith vis-a-vis Pascals wager and a 42 year old ghost story. The wisdom of sparing us your hot takes on twitter until after the former President has been laid to rest is unanimously approved.

The topic of the resolution of the current President's intelligence is brought up as we try to parse his recent statements on climate change. Dad offers a proposal to fill a swimming pool with, basketballs or ping pong balls. The multidimensional nature of reality has Dad feeling like he's back in his Webster College dorm room.

Finally the guys discuss the day's current events including the current Blue Wave count, Speaker Pelosi's nomination, The Farr nomination defeat, and The week the American fever broke.
