Drew Pinson and Jason Kull join Mark Bland on this episode where the gentlemen decide to remember the Queen of England who just died in the past week. After decades of reign, the most recognizable person in a Monarchy has passed to the other side. It's such a big deal that they released a press release that states Trump is not invited to the funeral at all. Crazy to think....

Also, Mark is becoming really beaten down about how every time something happens in the music or movie business, it immediately is brought down a notch or two by people being too woke. The latest craziness is people using AI to make the trailer for Disney's new Little Mermaid with a white girl instead of a black lead. Mark thinks this is way way over the top, but also questions why there is a need to constantly play with things on purpose to create division. 

Mark and the guys talk about homophobia, racism and many other issues that pop up quite often even though in practice there really isn't much that "happens" regarding those topics. And Mark believes those topics are only a focus for a launching point. Everyone doesn't need to complain and whine about everything all the time. Not every Joke is an attack on a whole culture. Some things are just funny in thought and the moment. The world is insensitive and now people are being too sensitive to everything all the time. Now Trump threatening people and the libs are all for it...but it's sensitivity again! 

The gentle touch on this topic multiple times in the show.

Finally Mark has Drew and Jason faceoff in a game of Trivia to see who is the trivia master of the Q. Who won? Who knew more? Which person seemed to guess too much? All this and more will be answered in this weeks finale!
