Hour 1: Liquid Donuts and Solar Flares | 07-02-26

Walter Sterling kicks off the hour with a sweet 21st birthday tribute to his daughter before launching into a fiery, hilarious debate with retired Catholic priest Father Jim Drucker about the tragic "death" of the American sedan—and why they blame women's design preferences for the inescapable rise of "ugly" SUVs and minivans. The heat continues as Walter roasts the NYC mayor's "satanic" decree for residents to set their thermostats to 78 degrees to avoid brownouts. Next, Dr. Sky drops in to explain the massive, grid-busting solar flares and coronal mass ejections that are currently knocking out power in Canada and bringing the Northern Lights further south.
