Mo Facts unearths a historical meeting between Martin Luther King Jr. and Richard Nixon in Accra, Ghana, in March 1957. While Nixon is often criticized for his "cowardice" during King's 1960 arrest, the hosts explore their earlier relationship and the role of photographer Griffith J. Davis in documenting the encounter. The segment questions why this photo was kept from the public until 2020 and examines Nixon's missed opportunity to secure the Black vote.

The segment explores the idea that modern medicine utilizes rituals similar to historical witchcraft to trigger the placebo or nocebo effects. The "white coat" and stethoscope are described as modern totems that prepare a patient's mind for healing. The hosts suggest that media figures are essentially "casting spells" by using fear to manifest negative health outcomes in the public.
