| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to the Dershow. Last time we talked about the State of the Union message, |
| 0:05.7 | you should read my mail. I'll give you a few examples afterward, but so contentious, so |
| 0:12.9 | divisive. We have so divided a country on the speeches as if there were two speeches. |
| 0:20.2 | Well, they were one by Huckabee Sanders and the other by Joe Biden, but it's as if each |
| 0:26.8 | speech with two speeches. There was no agreement whatsoever in the contentiousness, the name |
| 0:32.8 | calling, the letters, it was filled with hate. So I wanted to lighten it up a little bit, |
| 0:39.0 | so tonight I'm going to talk about the Super Bowl and how watching the Super Bowl could provide |
| 0:46.4 | a model of what America could be like. I've seen, I think, every Super Bowl there was. I remember |
| 0:52.9 | the first ones with Joe Nameth, that was a kid, but I've watched them very carefully, went to one |
| 0:58.4 | Super Bowl with my son Elon 1988, so it was 25 years ago. I don't think I ever want to go to |

| 1:17.6 | Usually people halfway divided, well, I'm a giants play and I watch in New York, obviously. |
| 1:24.0 | It's not divided, but when you get two teams that are outside teams like Philadelphia Eagles |
| 1:30.0 | and the Kansas City Chiefs, the audiences tend to be pretty much down in the middle. When |
| 1:36.3 | there's a good play from one side, people cheer who are supported that team, but not too many |
| 1:42.4 | booze when it happens. Mostly it's relatively friendly, and that happened yesterday. Two is |
| 1:53.3 | great game, great game, two phenomenal quarterbacks. The first time two African-American |
| 1:59.4 | quarterbacks played face-to-off against each other in the Super Bowl, and they were both |
| 2:04.5 | sensational. Had it been reversed and had a Jalen Hurts had the ball with a couple of minutes to |
| 2:13.4 | go tied. I suspect he would have marched down the field and gotten the field goal, but |
| 2:20.0 | the didn't happen. What happened, of course, is Mahorn Marxon. Mahorn always get him confused |
