Morning Round Up | May 12, 2026

The Morning X begins by gearing up for the return of a beloved show regular, plotting a scheme to purposely ignore his recent, unbelievable rock-and-roll adventure just to see his reaction. Tune in to hear Barnes and Crash pivot to an internet movement where a 22-year-old is actively trying to crowdfund hundreds of millions of dollars to buy a commercial airline. Then, they dive into a wave of culinary nostalgia over the surprising revival of an iconic steakhouse, before sparking a debate over out-of-control modern tipping expectations and the dreaded "iPad swivel".
