The hosts call for a "ceasefire" in the gender war, emphasizing that humans are "meant to be together." They play a final clip of Tony Montana from "Scarface" to symbolize Kevin Samuels' role as the "bad guy" who told the truth. Adam Curry offers MoFax a "sandwich and a bed" in Texas as they sign off, reminding listeners to support the show at MoFundMe.com.
The transition of Republicans from blue to red is analyzed as a media-driven decision that solidified during the 2000 Bush-Gore election. During the Cold War, red was a term of derision associated with communism, making the eventual switch for the GOP puzzling to the hosts. NBC's Chuck Todd is cited regarding how networks historically assigned red to the opposing party, suggesting the current scheme was a deliberate media creation.
The hosts discuss how the media, which had previously praised King's nonviolent stance against Southern segregationists like Bull Connor, turned against him when he applied those same principles to the Vietnam War. King criticized the press for its inconsistency in condemning domestic violence while supporting the bombing of Vietnamese children. This shift marked a turning point where King became a target of the very institutions that had once amplified his message.
