A 911 call from the home of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin revealed an aide requesting that the ambulance arrive without lights or sirens to remain "discreet." Austin was hospitalized on New Year's Day due to complications from prostate cancer surgery, a fact that was kept secret from President Biden for several days. The hosts speculate on Austin's true whereabouts and the lack of public appearances since his release from Walter Reed.

The recent ejection of a top-tier pilot from an F-35, which continued to fly on autopilot, is analyzed as a potential "op" to promote pilotless aircraft. Parallels were drawn to a scene in *Top Gun: Maverick* where a commander tells Tom Cruise's character that the future of aviation does not include human pilots. The military-industrial complex is seen as moving toward drones to eliminate the high cost and liability of human flight crews.

Matt Boisvert is recognized for the episode 1592 artwork featuring an F-35 pilot. The segment includes a review of the 911 call made by the pilot who ejected over South Carolina.

Employees at Apple's new "spaceship" campus in Cupertino have been injured by walking into the building's transparent glass walls. 911 recordings reveal multiple incidents of people being "disoriented and bleeding" after collisions. To solve the problem, Apple has reportedly begun placing simple stickers on the glass, which the hosts find ironically low-tech for a trillion-dollar technology company.

An ABC News report on a driver trapped in a car with a locked cruise control is analyzed for what it omitted: the make and model of the vehicle.

This "corruption" is cited as a primary reason for the show's reliance on listener support rather than corporate sponsorship.

The prospect of using illegal signal jammers in theaters to prevent phone disruptions is debated. While jammers would ensure silence, they pose a significant safety risk by preventing emergency 911 calls during medical crises, such as heart attacks.

A viral story about a Texas mother turning in her son for "self-rape" (masturbation) under a new state law is debunked as a complete fabrication.

They express concern over the increasing amount of fabricated news designed to provoke emotional reactions.

Media coverage of the Sandy Hook report release focused on Adam Lanza's access to firearms and his mother's volunteer work at the school.

The release of 911 call recordings from the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting sparked a debate over media ethics.

A prosecutor in Connecticut is blocking the release of 911 calls from the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting, even as the school building is completely demolished.

They advocate for all court proceedings to be broadcast on C-SPAN for public accountability.

A court ruling in Connecticut ordered the release of 911 calls from the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. Rachel Maddow is featured in a clip arguing that while she is a "free speech purist," the media should collectively refuse to broadcast the audio of the calls.

Connecticut officials are working on secret legislation to withhold records related to the Newtown school shooting, including victim photos and 911 audio recordings.

The hosts review a segment from Anderson Cooper's "Ridiculist" featuring inappropriate 911 calls, including a man reporting a broken iPhone and a couple claiming to have a marijuana overdose.
