Susan Collins stating on camera that she will not make her opponent's unusual relationship a campaign issue, and actor Ryan Reynolds trashing the '80s. First, they discuss audio revealing independent Nebraska U.S. Senate candidate Dan Osborn admitting he can't argue for abolishing ICE or promoting boys in girls sports because then he would lose. They also discuss the Democrats' obvious & tiresome tactic of pretending \"independents\" like Osborn aren't their candidates. Next, they fume as police and child protection officials in Virginia convict a mom of five for contrubuting to the delinquency of a minor and place her on a child abuse and neglect registry for allowing her five-year-old son to take a walk alone in their neighborhood. Then, they comment on Maine Sen. Susan Collins telling Politico that she will not bring up the fact that Democratic Senate nominee Troy Jackson has been in a decades-long relationship and has children with his second cousin. Finally, they refuse to let actor Ryan Reynolds get away with calling the 1980's a \"brutal, brutal time.\" Jim and Greg extol the greatness of the '80s and explain why Reynolds has no idea what he's talking about.
