How much does humor really shape our lives? And how much does it change over time? We take you on a journey from the wisecracks of popular 90s TV shows, like 'Friends,' to today's humor as shaped by YouTube and social media. We reminisce about the comic genius of Matthew Perry, mourn his recent demise, and broach the controversy surrounding his stance on vaccinations. As we consider the impact of his loss, we can't help but think about the looming shadows of other impending industry losses, such as Clint Eastwood.

Switching gears to a more serious dialogue, we grapple with the heightened polarization in today's politics, and its pervasiveness in our daily lives. The debate heats up as we wrestle with the American involvement in the ongoing crisis in Israel. Delving deeper into the socio-political realm, we reflect on the repercussions of the 9-11 attacks. The chilling contemplation of a police state, where citizens' freedoms are compromised, wraps up our thought-provoking discussion. Tune in for this roller coaster of emotions, as we laugh, grieve, ponder, and question together.
