Producer Bobby and Jonathan May join to discuss the Holiday season, or in this case the coming future and the end of 2020. This isn't the year end show, but we are there. Close enough.

First up Bobby brings some beef to the table to discuss with Mark. It seems because of Bobby's past relationship with the show, he's been cold shouldered by other media. Mark has claimed for years on the show that people he's never worked with use their "make believe timeline and thoughts" as a way to lie to others. Here is a situation where people, who have no relationship with Mark (and never did) use Mark as a scapegoat for things. It's intellectually dishonest. And makes those people flat out liars. But this ends on a special message from Bobby that the Q and Mark approve!

Next it seems the VACCINES COMETH! As the year ends and Xmas is upon us, the world is getting the new Covid vaccines. Both Pfizer and Moderna have gotten FDA approval to roll them out and people are mixed on using them. Mark and the boys break down what a vaccine really is and what it's doing in layman's terms (the guys are not doctors) to your body when it gets it. Maybe you knew and maybe you didn't. But check this out and learn a little something new.

Finally, Defunding the police has been discussed a few times on the show, but Bobby and Jonathan break it down and get to the nitty gritty of how it's supposed to work and how people should be viewing these things. Interesting grey area that people discuss some aspects of but not the aspects we discuss on the Q.  After all this, the guys answer a pertinent Christmas question from a listener...Should it be okay to tell family and friends you are not getting them anything because you just don't have the money right now? With 2020 being rough and money being tight, is this okay to do. Find out what the answer is on this new episode of the Q!

Do we have authenticated Election results...not as long as republicans are involved with the government process in 2020. We are learning they tend to be very toxic people on a national stage and just as bad offline and in normal life. Does that mean they are bad people, well you be the judge of their actions. As far as the election goes...we are STILL WAITING.

Mike Eise comes back on to finally talk a bit about his poker playing and discuss his thoughts on where we are at with this world in 2020. The World Series of Poker champion talks about his run to his bracelet in 2009 and some of the finer points into playing against some of the best players on earth. 

Mark and Mike also talk about the Tyson vs. Jones exhibition fight and some of the rules put in place before the fight happens. How did the fight come off to you? Find out where our guys heads were at prior to the two men battling each other. 

Finally, based on their interactions living in St. Louis, MO and seeing it first hand, Mark and Mike breakdown the current stance of Republicans and how they are viewing them. With no election results certified and Trump rushing to Pardon everyone he knows or hired in the WH, It makes sense they would discuss this in detail and try to get to the bottom of the issues.
