Summary

Usually Culture Corner comes at the end of the programme but this week it sorts of flows through the entire show. We talk the bank holiday in the UK (It's Memorial Day in the USA), grocery stores, eye glass frames and proper English pronunciations. Somehow James and Toby come around to Ron DiSantis announcing for President plus the Target and Bud Light boycotts but that just leads us to John Carpenter movies and pictures about the war in Vietnam.

In Culture Corner proper, James turns against Silo and Toby says stay as far away as possible from FUBAR (Netflix) as it lives up to the name.

Opening sound this week is Gov. Ron DeSantis talking about Donald Trump on the Clay and Buck Show.
