The hosts play a classic, profanity-laced outtake of radio legend Casey Kasem struggling to transition from an up-tempo song to a somber "long distance dedication" about a dead dog. This leads to a discussion about the history of recorded music, from Thomas Edison's cylinders to 78 RPM shellac discs. Dvorak highlights the "78 Project" on Archive.org as a significant resource for preserving high-fidelity historical recordings.
John Miller describes modern terrorism as "theater" that requires a "money shot" of blood and bodies to be effective on television. He dismisses concerns about cyber attacks on the power grid, claiming terrorists are only interested in high-yield, low-tech violence like the Mumbai attacks. The hosts briefly pivot to the news of Casey Kasem going missing before concluding the analysis of Miller's "douche knuckle" rhetoric.
