At the top of the show, Adam complains to Bryan and Gina about his recent travel experience returning from Denver. They go on to talk about the continued confusion over wearing a mask, and then speak to Mike August about flying with a boxcutter, and the proper way to slice a large cake. Later, Adam recalls the time he was detained by TSA, and Gina reads news stories about the first transgender athlete to compete in the Olympics, the first openly gay active NFL player, and more woke characters added to Sesame Street.
