The hosts mock Broadway actors for finding "political resonance" in the Harry Potter play, specifically comparing Trump to Voldemort. They highlight a clip of Patti LuPone expressing visceral hate for the president and refusing to perform if he were in the audience. The hosts criticize "sanctimonious Brits" for commenting on American politics while their own country faces increasing speech regulations.

The hosts deconstruct a clip of President Obama discussing the CIA's past use of torture. They focus on his use of the word "some" when referring to banning extraordinary interrogation techniques and his warning not to be "too sanctimonious." They argue these semantic choices imply that some forms of torture may continue.
