The hosts mock Gavin Newsom for bragging about a 960 SAT score, which they characterize as a "dummy's score." An AI-generated parody of Newsom describes him engaging in low-brow activities at Red Lobster and Waffle House. The segment transitions into a critique of Sam Altman and the massive valuations of AI companies despite technical limitations.
The show concludes with a report on the lowest national SAT scores in a decade, with only 42% of students considered "college ready." The hosts dismiss the importance of the scores, calling college a "scam to steal your money." Final sign-offs are delivered from Galveston Island and Northern Silicon Valley, followed by a Joe Biden parody clip.
The New York Times published a front-page story titled "Risky Rise of the Good Grade Pill," detailing the widespread use of Adderall among students seeking higher SAT scores. The report suggests that 1.6 million prescriptions are being used as performance enhancers rather than for medical necessity. The hosts argue the story serves as an advertisement for pharmaceutical companies while distracting from the "bath salts" epidemic.
Education System, Lyndon Johnson, Martial Law Claims
A listener letter details a claim from a former Joint Chiefs of Staff liaison regarding the Lyndon Johnson administration. The account alleges that Johnson considered declaring martial law three times in 1967 due to campus riots but was dissuaded by military leadership. The narrative suggests a subsequent policy shift to intentionally decline the quality of American education to ensure a more controllable population.
