Yeah, order a lil cookie cutter
Stephen Szymczyk
Also polio vaccine took 20 years of research and trials.
Robert Burford
Amen. Praise be to the Almighty Santa whom we lift on "Ho"!
Matt from Hidden Machine
I thought the same thing

Columbus shout out

I got my 10 game flex plan flyer from the Wolves yesterday. Trying to find 10 home games they have a reasonable shot at winning. Tough. Wolves should get Minneapolis to pass vaccination requirement right before the Nets come into town.

Weird choice for a white guy to overdub his voice onto someone saying the n-word
Ryan Malone
Great ep, though as a Wolves fan we got no love from the Gray King in the news! The POBO literally got fired for having an affair this week lol. I think that’s at least equally newsworthy to Dwight Howard on the Masked Singer.
Alex
Comparing covid to polio is fucking insane.

Tutti Frutti on Masterclass and TFO this week? Brilliant scheduling
Ben Blask
Could get any shape ginger bread cookie and chipmunk it down to man shape.
Eric McKay
Yeah...not that there is much solace to be taken in the fact that this is nothing new, but there were people with significant national platforms that expressed hesitancy, but it was at the time in large part due to a mistake from one of the manufacturers that resulted in deaths and a pause in the vaccine's rollout.

Also, I wish Carl and Santa to have a long and fulfilling relationship, or a brief but hot fling.

There's a question in this episode about whether there were anti-vaccination people in the past, (the hypothesis is "no"). The answer is, yes, (unfortunately) - there is a history of anti-vaxx humans stretching centuries: https://www.sciencenews.org/article/vaccine-hesitancy-history-damage-anti-vaccination
