Topic: Coco The Gorilla

The show acknowledges high-tier donors including Patrick Seymour and Peter Tangstrom. The segment touches on the recent deaths of Coco the Gorilla and Charles Krauthammer, while introducing the "Space Force" as a primary topic for the second half of the program.

Following the death of Coco the Gorilla, a former zookeeper alleges that the public image of the ape was a PR fabrication. The claims include Coco having a fetish for human nipples and a history of killing the kittens she was famously depicted as befriending.
