Emmanuel struggles to get through the ID, there are a lot of recorded pieces tonight, Kyle is mad at Emmanuel for his coffee spilling in a car he wasn't in, analyzing cups and lids, Emmanuel's heart palpitations may be related to caffeine, the value of water, thoughts on last week's presidential debate, the disinformation campaign that followed, audio of George H.W. Bush refusing to have any more debates back in 1988, an excerpt from "Brain Damage" back in 1988 that called for an Indian restaurant to open near campus, realization that the business model for DoorDash was aired back then, examples of how WUSB often comes up with ideas that become big years later, Kyle announces that he's buying a mainframe, Kyle continues to fix broken videotapes in a major archiving project, Reagan's funeral and Clinton's impeachment are two major news items that were recently viewed in the collection, how TV looked different decades ago, identifying types of interference on over-the-air television signals, Emmanuel's memories of crudely fixing cassette tapes as a child, Google's strict copyright control that prevents these tapes from being shared on YouTube, the awful opening theme to "Star Trek: Enterprise," analyzing the debate, how Trump completely fell for the myth of Haitians eating dogs in Ohio, wondering how anyone could believe in Trump after his dismal performance in the debate, Trump is coming to Long Island tomorrow, Emmanuel got a ticket for his rally, what Kamala Harris was able to prove in the debate, how the most minor correction by the moderator is condemned by Republicans as fact-checking, how Republicans are trying to quell any criticism of Trump, another potential assassination attempt in Florida, the initial reports proved to be inaccurate, questioning what crime was committed, a peaceful pro-Palestinian protest takes place at Stony Brook, hundreds of pagers in Lebanon explode in an attack by Israel, a commentator describes this as "brilliant," biased reporting by the media, a Mexican group deals with a band member publicly supporting Trump.

Autumn has arrived, getting closer to Election Day, Trump somehow moves ahead five points, remembering how things actually were under his presidency, how his disastrous debate performance is being rewritten as a good one by conservatives, the gravity of so many of Trump's former cohorts speaking out against him, what will be lost with a Trump victory, the absurdity of complaining about gas prices which are comparatively low, the difference between saying Kamala Harris or Donald Trump is a threat to democracy, a victory in Nebraska's electoral college system thanks to a Republican, ways that this is being mischaracterized, Emmanuel is taking an online driver safety course, the numerous ways he has to verify who he is while taking the course, a problem with one of the facts presented in the class, a high school parking space that belonged to a student has Palestinian imagery removed from it, how Palestinians are often treated as less than human, Emmanuel can't make it through this absurd story, Emmanuel is still off coffee, an update on the situation in Lebanon, how tweets that are labeled as disputed or misleading are more likely to be believed by Trump followers, Emmanuel's strong reservations about where we're headed.
