Concorde Aviation History, Phil Collins, Supersonic Flight Experience
A discussion of aviation history details how Phil Collins performed at both Wembley and JFK Stadiums on the same day using the Concorde. Personal anecdotes describe the unique physical sensations of supersonic flight, including the plane's elongation due to friction heat. Mention is made of Boom Supersonic as a potential modern successor to the retired fleet.
British public opinion on Russell Brand has shifted, with media outlets like the New Statesman labeling him a "populist nutjob." A parallel is drawn to Phil Collins, who remains unpopular in the UK following the "NannyGate" scandal years ago. The segment also critiques John Heilemann's behavior toward Brand during a recent appearance on Bill Maher's show, specifically his use of the legal term "non-responsive."
Celebrity Death Watch, Media COVID-19 Exemptions
The hosts engage in a dark tangent about the lack of high-profile celebrity deaths from COVID-19. They speculate on which celebrities might "drop dead" to serve as a public warning, mentioning names like Michael Moore and Phil Collins.
The show concludes with a musical parody titled "Tulsi Mash," a take on the "Monster Mash" detailing the political conflict between Tulsi Gabbard and Hillary Clinton. The lyrics reference Clinton's "Russian asset" claims and the legacy of the Clinton Foundation in Haiti. The hosts sign off by teasing a new exit strategy for the upcoming Sunday broadcast.
No Agenda Art, Darren O'Neill, Phil Collins Anecdote
The show's artwork for episode 1182, created by Darren O'Neill, is reviewed, featuring a "Breakup with Big Tech" theme. An alternative piece featuring the Alamo was rejected because the hosts felt modern audiences might not recognize the landmark. This leads to an anecdote about musician Phil Collins being a major collector of Alamo artifacts and a personal story about a past encounter with Collins at MTV.
Phil Collins, Alamo Memorabilia Collection
Musician Phil Collins is noted for owning an extensive collection of Alamo memorabilia, which he has donated or loaned to the historic site in San Antonio, Texas. The anecdote highlights Collins' unexpected fascination with Texas history and the Battle of the Alamo.
The hosts discuss the 1985 "We Are the World" benefit and the fact that royalties from such songs often revert to the artists after a few years rather than staying with the charity. They recall Phil Collins flying the Concorde to perform in both London and Philadelphia on the same day for Live Aid.
