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.
A 2008 clip from The Tonight Show with Jay Leno features actor Shia LaBeouf describing how an FBI consultant on the movie "Eagle Eye" played back a private phone call LaBeouf had two years prior.

The hosts note how the public and media laughed off these revelations at the time.
