But this time, Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss celebrity deaths, a new season of THE ORVILLE!? IS IT TRUE??, Musk is a terrible rat in our opinion, the fourth turning is here and you DEFINITELY shouldn't send false reports of DEI to the Department of Education...

• West Virginia wants to pretend the Bible is historically accurate, and use it as a history book. There's a reason West Virginia has terrible education scores.

• Probably can't get a flu shot this year...
