The Fraternal Order of FNH steps in to help right a wrong … How do you turn away a 95-year old WW2 hero showing up to get his Covid Vaccination? Easy, asked the clowns in Glendale AZ. Not on our watch! Jacques learns it’s GREAT to support artist you love during a pandemic maybe just read the fine print. Should we love Uber Eats and Progressive commercials THIS much? Mel Brooks gave us Jews In Space …GOP gave us Jews In Space … With Lasers! AOC is awesome. Biff updates us on crime wave (really?) in Japan and he breaks down his Superbowl pick. How much do you have to dumb down GameStop stock story for Jacques to get it and his thoughts on Kong v Godzilla (of course the 1962 version!). Closing Song “It’s So Hard To Be Like Jacques” Sebadoh parody by Jacques' friends (?) My Bro Zebulon circa 1994

Biff and Jacques chat the Great Willie O’Ree. The Bruins, a little late to the dance, are finally retiring Willie’s #22 he wore in 1958 when he broke the color barrier. Biff tells of a personal interaction with Willie in Santa Monica, CA a few years back. Biff also points out while Willie’s number being retired most likely was a positive step brought on by the BLM movement, the NHL has a long way to go to make their “Hockey Is For Everyone” program a true outreach.

Jacques and Joe (record scratch) … Jacques and BIFF? After unsuccessful attempts to beg, bribe and blackmail Joe to return to CP, Jacques cons long-time friend, long time hockey team mate (and former CP guest) Biff to co-pilot. Social media giants FINALLY do the right thing, and like ‘Merica itself, kicks Donny_2-Scoops to the curb. Bracing for Pardon-Palooza. Going over the “other Joe’s” priorities, and Biff uses the tried and true Diane Chambers method of sports predictions to forecast 5 times this week coming up. Parenting tip from Biff and much much more … well, more. Closing song: “Ruby” by Kenny Rogers performed by Beyond Id (circa 1994?)

Jacques and Joe struggle to find something newsworthy to talk about this week, since it’s been all quiet on the home front over the past seven days! Wait, this just in: Trump only paid $1,500 in taxes in the last 10 years, then hijacked the first presidential debate with Joe Biden, and found time in his busy schedule to contract COVID-19! And there’s a new Borat movie coming out!
