FASHION: Shane Gillis Joke Sparks Debate Over Gym Gear Oct 15, 2026

Show notes

What was supposed to be a lengthy discussion about artificial intelligence instead turned into a viral social media moment for Mark Zuckerberg. The Meta CEO became the subject of jokes and memes after viewers fixated on his reaction while drinking a pint of Guinness during an appearance on the Cheeky Pint podcast hosted by John Collison, co-founder of Stripe.

A recent Washington Post feature examines the backlash surrounding comedian Shane Gillis' comments about women's gym attire during his Oct. 10 appearance on Saturday Night Live, and how the controversy has fueled a broader conversation about changing workout fashion. Gillis drew criticism after joking about the shorts and outfits commonly worn at gyms today, prompting responses from entertainers, fitness enthusiasts, and social media users.

California drivers who are single, divorced, or widowed could see changes in how their auto insurance rates are calculated under a proposal from Ricardo Lara, the state's Insurance Commissioner.

WINNIE-THE-POOH: At 100 A Beloved Character and an Unlikely Political Symbol Oct 15, 2026

Show notes

A new report highlighted by Yahoo News claims former U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle is privately frustrated following her departure from the Trump administration and may be considering speaking publicly about her experiences inside President Donald Trump's political circle.

A surprising new trend is emerging in parts of Silicon Valley, where some technology workers and AI enthusiasts are reportedly embracing smoking despite decades of public health warnings. SFist highlighted comments from Shyam Sankar, chief technology officer at Palantir, who suggested some AI researchers view smoking as a signal of their confidence that artificial intelligence will eventually solve major health problems such as cancer.

As A.A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh celebrates its 100th anniversary, Britain's Telegraph is looking back at how the honey-loving bear became one of the world's most recognizable and, in some places, most controversial fictional characters.

TUESDAYS WITH TERRY: Cancer Treatment, In-N-Out Delivery, AI-Powered Prescriptions & Leftover Pizza Oct 14, 2026

Show notes

The latest research suggests that exercise may be one of the most effective non-drug tools available to help some cancer patients improve outcomes, recover more effectively, and potentially reduce the risk of recurrence.

In-N-Out's no-delivery policy has created an unofficial delivery market where customers pay strangers to bring them burgers, but consumer advocates warn the service can be expensive and sometimes fraudulent.

Nolla Health received authorization from Utah regulators to launch what it says is the first U.S. pilot program allowing AI to issue initial prescriptions for acne treatment.

If you have a few extra minutes, skip the microwave. The Post's taste test found that reheating pizza in a cast-iron skillet produced the best overall results, with a crispy crust and melted cheese.

TUESDAYS WITH TERRY: Ken Paxton, Schitt's Creek & Live Streaming Executions Oct 14, 2026

Show notes

The Dubai trip has become another point of attack in the Texas Senate race, with Democrats portraying it as an ethics concern and Republicans dismissing it as campaign-season politics.

The episode became less about the sketches themselves and more about the continuing national debate over comedy, free expression, and cultural standards, with Shane Gillis once again at the center of the conversation.

The execution of Nidal Hasan is still expected to proceed, but mounting bipartisan criticism suggests the idea of livestreaming it is becoming increasingly unlikely.
