So we'll check in with all of our virtual co-hosts coming up here in just a second. We'll also welcome back Lex Juarez to the studio here in just a minute. She's just wrapping up over on the 7 o'clock show. But in the meantime, let's dive right in. And we are going to start off tonight with the car of the future today. Take a look. Tesla's next generation Roadster. And as you can see, it took the idea of a test drive to new heights, literally. Last night's demonstration in Texas showed the electric supercar climbing a vertical wall, driving upside down, briefly flying, then safely landing, and hitting 60 miles per hour in less than one second. The car is a collaboration between Tesla and SpaceX. Elon Musk says production could begin in 2028, but the flying version will not be street legal, so that is important to remember here. The final price has not yet been revealed, but reservations alone costs $250,000. So Lex has made her way over here. Welcome back. Hi, thank you. Hi, everybody. So look, a lot of people already own Teslas out there. So like the electric cars, the Elon Musk cars, they are here to stay. That seems to be the case. But this flying version, despite the fact that it's not street legal and everything else that you see that it can do, look, there are the Cybertrucks out there that are supposed to be indestructible. Do you like this or not? i do not like it um i you can't even get me in a Waymo or a car like that let alone something that's going to be lifting itself off the ground um and that test flight looked like a they were on a roller coaster like no thanks uh we've got enough like air traffic control issues right now too i don't i i don't yeah before you i mean we've got drones interrupting flight paths and things like that the last thing we need is people in their cars doing that i i saw this video i i wrapped up the nine o'clock show last night. I went back and I sat at my desk. I opened up Twitter because it'll always be Twitter to me. And this was the first video that popped up and I swore it was AI. I was like, oh, that looks like bad AI. I know that was the thing. So then I was slightly shocked when I realized that it wasn't. Chad and Laura are in the Zoom room on this Friday night. Chad and Laura, thank you so much for joining us. As always, the idea of this flying car, this $250,000 plus future Tesla Roadster. Do you like this or not? We're having trouble hearing you. Let's see. Chad and Laura, Chad and Laura, can you guys hear us? All right, what will we do again? Okay, we can hear you now. Perfect. Thank you so much. You can hear us? Yep, we can hear you. La, la, la, la, la, la. Oh, yeah. You can hear us? We can hear you. We're saying what's the worst that could happen, right? And I was saying we should just unleash these things on the streets of D.C., Maryland, and Virginia and just see what happens. Yeah, right? Why not? Absolutely. This is just Elon's flamethrower. Like I said, it's not going to be street legal. He's just showing off. This is just that flamethrower. But Elon being Elon. I mean, look, he was showing off with the Cybertruck when he threw a rock at the window and shattered it by accident. And now we see those all over. He had Joe Rogan shoot an arrow into the side of it and didn't do anything. It dented it a little bit. An arrow? What's that going to do? It's not going to do anything. That's supposed to be armor piercing. Melissa is in the Zoom room on this Friday night. Melissa, I have the feeling you're not a fan of this. I am not, but fortunately, I hang out with old farts that drive, you know, cars that are luxurious. So I get a, you know, once in a while, you know, I get a ride or I get to ride it or I, you know, but I get schooled on keeping both hands on the wheel. Ten and two position, the four and six position, whichever is the safest. Yes. Allison, Allison is in the Zoom room on this Friday night as well. Allison, do you like the idea of the flying car? Allison, my, all right, we're having trouble with Allison right now. All right, look, here's my hot take, Lex. I am totally okay with this. I am, my biggest problem with it is always going to be the human element. As long as there is a human driver, I do not trust it at all. But I advocate and I have been a huge advocate for the autonomous vehicle. So, like, I don't think we're there yet. But anything we can do to cut down on distracted driving, including taking the controls out of human hands, I am all for. Allison, do you like the flying car? Chris, I don't like it. And I understand that rich people like to have rich people toys. That's great. But if you think about it, once people purchase this, what can you do with it? you can't ride it or drive it anywhere yeah and not to mention the fact that i don't think most people or anyone needs a car that can go zero to 60 in less than a second it's begging for trouble we have heard horror stories we have seen horror stories of people who have no respect for the amount of power on which they are sitting and i don't know i on the one hand i understand and it's exciting to move forward but progress we've wanted this since the jetsons but i just don't see it okay speaking of flying if you've been on a plane lately you may have noticed something or you may not have because it's something you only notice when you definitely need it we are talking about barf bags because apparently they have gone missing from the seat back pocket the wall street journal says some passengers prone to motion sickness are bemoaning the spotty availability of the once reliable amenity you sat down in that pocket in front of you there was always one of them to make matters worse it's not the sort of thing like i said that you notice until you're in urgent need of one passengers have theories as to why they may be missing they blame everything from short turnaround times between flights flight attendants may not have time to restock or even a life hack popular on tiktok they say passenger misuse also people pulling them out using them for other things major u.s airlines tell the paper that the bags are still supposed to be there but flight attendants admit they are not always stocked so no more barf bags on planes i have never personally seen anyone use one yeah i i think i'm i don't want to say i don't like it because if somebody next to me needs it i i want them to have it but i i've never seen it or needed it or seen somebody in need and so i i'm kind of indifferent about this one feels like such a throwback to like maybe a different time like back when you always had a blanket if you asked for it you know like i don't know but billy billy are you a fan of the barf bags have you ever needed one have you ever seen someone need one and do you think they should still be standard i've never needed one i've never seen anybody use one but i truly believe that they need to have them there because if you're in a 10-hour flight and somebody throws up beside you that smell and that you know it's going to be disgusting yeah that's a chain reaction situation too because if you throw up and i see it or i smell it i'm absolutely going to throw up as well chad and lara lara's a frequent flyer the idea of the barf bags should they still be standard have you ever needed one or have you seen someone use one i sat next to someone who used one once it was a flight from boston i don't know to like denver or something not a short flight and as soon as the plane started reversing from the gate he turned to me and he was just like i'm so sorry about this to grab the barf bag and just he just sat there with the bag the whole time like four or five hours i don't remember how long oh it's breaking news i just saw i just i just saw lightning breaking news thanks chad oh thank you very much our resident weather fanatic i'm in Friendship Heights i'm in Friendship Heights all right so we can probably see it outside our window too since we're just a few blocks north of you oh my gosh is it raining chad uh no what are you drinking um of course we'll splash of a watermelon mint watermelon with a fancy i love yours all right melissa the barf bag on the plane should it still be a standard amenity i never needed one um and i'm a mom so if i need to hold someone you know and and you know i'll do it and then go wash my hands it didn't bother you know smell and stuff like that doesn't bother me i've done with this one before and we're not even in an airplane but um yeah you know just hold a cup up or whatever i can get my hands on and that's it but i never needed one but i mean there are people that do need it and there are people that do take medications before they go on flights um i think they should still have it it should be part of like the what is it first aid kit or whatever but no i i don't think you should get rid of them at all yeah anything can happen for a lot of people and to your point a lot of kids traveling and uh you know accidents can happen going back to the cars now one of the most controversial features in most modern cars is that auto start stop button that feature where when you come to a stop and your foot is on the brake the engine shuts off then it starts again when the driver releases it yada yada yada some critics have called it the single worst feature in cars and the trump administration hates it too transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has called it an idiotic requirement that every driver hates, and they have revoked the incentives to automakers to include it. But in a recent Washington Post op-ed, which we're looking at right now, one veteran auto journalist is taking a stand in support of the feature because he says it can save you money on gas. And he says in an age of record high gas prices, we're flirting with that $5 a gallon mark. He appreciates anything that can save drivers money so lex the the auto on off does your car have one do you turn it on do you turn it off do you like it do you not my car doesn't have it and i wouldn't want a car that had it because it gets on my nerves even as a passenger i i dislike it you were like the trump administration is against this and i was like well i agree with them yeah but but some people have trouble admitting that sometimes that's why i was like yep but i i you know my car is too old to have one of these um but every rental car i've ever had it is literally i like adjust the mirrors and then i find that button if you don't know you can turn it off yeah a with a circle around it it's the first thing i look for in most cars and i immediately shut that off but the Washington Post guy makes a good point, he does make a good point if i'm gonna save money on gas then maybe i would consider, i don't know, there are some things i'm willing to just pay for and that may be one of them, Allison, i know you're a fan of your cars maybe not the flying kind but the auto start stop, do you like it or not? um, i don't think i like it. Chris and Courtland's in the background, he just told me we don't like it but this is my thing, i'm a very tech person and i can fix like everything and i know how things work to me this would cause a vehicle more inertia which means something else in the vehicle would have to keep being used more and more and worn down, which would cause a repair sooner. So I think it's actually not as good as people think it is. Allison, you are so spot on. Some of the people in the comment sections and some of them claim to be mechanics said that it leads to like starter issues and it leads to wear and tear on parts that might otherwise. I mean, like think you wouldn't just sit there with like a light switch and just like flick it up and down a million times for it Yeah, inevitably it can't be good for it. Billy, the auto start and stop. Do you like it or not? Do you turn it on or off? I don't, my car doesn't have it, but I hate it because my girl's car has it. And it's like, it's just so irritating. Like she said, it's very irritating. It's wear and tear in your vehicle. And it's just not really worth it. And I finally agree with something that Donald Trump said. There you go. You know, for some people, this can, this is the thing that gets them all passionate and fired up. It's even weird to me when I'm like at a red light and the car next to me suddenly goes silent, i you know i personally even with like some of the hybrid vehicles that are so quiet, it's unsettling so i don't love when you can't even tell if the car is on or not, yeah and it's just i don't know if you're in stop and go traffic, i cannot imagine how annoying that is to like you know yes constant you're already going back and forth and then your car's turning on and off that's horrible that's probably why they made it so that you can shut it off the we are what that sorry let me start over false start the work week is over for most people but there's an office debate on TikTok and it all has to do again with what's appropriate to wear to the office take a listen to this one the corporate space lately is showing midriff okay midriff i know i've worn questionable things to the office people have commented that and every office is casual more like some offices are more casual than the others but the midriff i don't think that's appropriate at any office. The midriff in the office, the corporate crop top, that's content creator Glazer's Guide. The video has more than a million views, hundreds of comments, as you can imagine, people going back and forth. Some people like it, some people don't. Lex, do you like it? The corporate crop top. And look, I understand every office is different. Every office has their own culture and dress code, but in general, do you like this or not? No, I don't, But I do like the name Corporate Crop Top. Yeah, that's a banger right there. Somebody should dress as that for Halloween. But, yeah, I mean, I would worry about just wearing, you know, not having three fingers right here. Because that was the dress code growing up. You know, it's like a razorback. I'm like, oh, so, yeah, to go full belly out, that's, you know, nobody wants Winnie the Pooh in the office. it feels like it appeals to a very specific body type as well which anything that you have to have different rules for different body types i generally got me out yeah i think is not really this or different genders because if you're going to you know if it's the corporate girlies that she's talking about then are the corporate guys going to be allowed to show a little tum-tum too maybe a little of their belly hair and then are you going to have an issue with it right these are just questions i'm just asking the questions melissa the corporate crop top do you like it or not so you so you know i'm old right and i don't like a lot of the trends that go go on especially the things that come up um in the workplace um you know i'm currently unemployed so the the places that i do work at i i can wear sports bras and crop tops but um in an office setting i'm sorry i don't want to give off the wrong impression because i'm a sexual person in in you know in in all aspects and the last thing i want to do is give off this you know this transcending uh vibe that hey you know i'm showing my belly button i'm wild i'm this i'm that so no we're not doing that we're not showing that maybe outside of the office yes but not during the office hours outside of the office perfectly acceptable chad is a strictly sleeves optional type of guy office or not but chad the corporate crop top do you like it or not well you guys know i work at a gym and you know shane gillis addressed that last weekend this is this is a Curb Your Enthusiasm bit that Larry David had this one of his episode he hired a secretary and she kept wearing crop tops and he couldn't figure out a way to address it can you wear crop tops at work i can wear crop tops at work at the gym i don't dislike if you're in the fitness center yeah if you're like if there's a dress code laid out just father does the dress code forbid it if it doesn't forbid it then you can wear it that's like that's an interesting question that is a very good point Allison the corporate crop top are you a fan i'm not a fan Chris for one just showing the skin it becomes tight you know like Melissa was saying sexualized and also it could lead to sexual harassment as well um so i definitely don't like it yeah i i i tend to agree with with everyone in the Zoom room tonight Billy you get final say on this one the corporate crop top are you gonna rock it no i'm not and it shouldn't be dress code it should be breast code because if you're showing your breasts at the office it can be very distracting for a man like me that loves breasts and i can be like Allison says sexual harassment this show goes off the rails on a nightly basis keep the comments coming on all the stories we have talked about so far coming up next white one local high school is moving mirrors outside of the restroom welcome back to do you like it or not on this Friday night alongside Lex Suarez for the second time this week that's rare yeah that's rare that's like Tony P Tony P status oh well me and him we haven't met in person only online so we're coming together top host candidates you can vote right now go to their social media pages and check it out maybe we can host together that would be a dream come true i think for my friend Tony P at one local high school there will be no more fixing your hair inside the bathroom if you want to do it. If you want to go take a look at what's going on up here, you got to take it outside the restroom. Montgomery Blair High School has moved their bathroom mirrors to the outside of the restroom entrances to keep students from gathering between classes. The school's principal says staff were finding groups of five to eight students hanging around the mirrors after the last bell leading to tardiness. He says some students also sometimes use bathrooms to film social media videos. The goal is to discourage those gatherings and get students to class on time. So ditching the mirrors inside the restroom. Do you like this or not? No, I don't. I think it's going to be a distraction in the hallway. Now you're going to have people crowding in the hall and probably have even more people that are tardy to class. That's my prediction of how this is going to play out. Again, I like it in theory, but I think you are absolutely right. I think, and look, Allison, I know I'm old, man. I know I'm old fashioned, but I do think we need to bring back a healthy dose of shame in society these days. Like there was a time where like even just like catching a glimpse of yourself in like a car window as you went by, I would get mocked for doing that. And now you've got people with their phones out filming themselves dancing in a bathroom at school. OK, so I can't judge Chris because I'm one of those people to this day that does all of those things so i understand because appearance is everything like how you appear how you look to other people especially at that age now you got to keep in mind some of these kids are either getting you know um humiliated or judged or whatever or they they might think that being beautiful or being handsome is amazing to them so they need to be a different but i understand banning it because sometimes they spend too much time so i get it but i really don't like okay i and i respect exactly where you're coming from on this one because yeah of course we were all the same way that was one of and again this is one of the reasons that i have like i i feel so i feel so sentimental about my own high school experience because i did go to an all boys school and it eliminated it absolutely eliminated the need to feel like you needed to impress anyone you just you you rolled in looking like how you look you know what i mean and no one cared it was incredible and i i wouldn't have traded it for anything and had i gone to school with and look we did have an all-girls school directly next to us but there was very very little you know in between but had i gone to high school knowing myself at the time i would have been one of those people in the bathroom i used to do my makeup in the bathroom god i'm and look at the career that i'm in now anyway billy billy the idea of putting the mirrors outside the bathroom, do you like this or not? I like that idea. Anything that can help with education and help the kids get back to class on time, I'm with it. Maybe they should have some type of electrical thing that when class starts, it just, like, blocks it, and then you have no other choice but to go out. Billy, you may have just come up with your million-dollar invention idea. Yeah. But you shared it, and we're going to steal it. Laura, do you like the idea of moving the mirrors outside of the restroom? I don't know. I feel like that's going to be more of a distraction, right? They're going to be doing their TikTok dances and stuff in front of the mirrors in the hallway, opening everything up. Disrupting the traffic. I'm with you too, Chris. I think we talk about how we need to bring shame back a little bit. The winter is coming. Is that from Game of Thrones? That sounds like it. I think it was Hannah Waddingham. I watched half the first episode. I don't like things being taken away from me. I don't like things being taken away from me. If I was a kid, I'd be probably annoyed at it. Can you imagine if there were just no mirrors at all and that was just like a thing? think you got food in your teeth yeah everybody's got a phone you just look at a reverse image of yourself a mirror is easier than using the phone for that earlier this week we had the debate over whether or not uninvited siblings should be included at birthday parties tonight we're talking about who gets to eat at kids birthday parties take a listen this mom is just gobsmacked because she's obviously roughed up to a party and seen lunch included figured that that meant for the adults you know drinks and lunch supplied for the adults no it didn't of course it doesn't it means fairy bread it means cake maybe popcorn it means you know sausage sizzle at best for the kids if they're going to feed the kids lunch which of course i don't think you need to and this mom's like hang on what's going on here why are we not getting fed like what did she expect as an ethnic person like we don't even write lunch included like first of all if we saw lunch included we would expect as in like it's sit down for adults if we were to write all right so feeding adults at kids parties do you like it or not um if i think that they should be allowed to eat the food that's there if they're staying yeah is that an insane idea i feel like that was a really silly conversation when we were listening to it i was like it was i could not even believe this was a debate i was like am i is my family like just that extra and we are if you go into Chuck E. Cheese and there's one pizza for four kids. Yeah, I can understand maybe the adults not diving in first. Or they buy their own pizza. Melissa, was there ever a question about whether or not parents should be allowed to eat at a kid's party? I'm sorry, but if you're going to go to a kid's party, make sure that you eat first before you go. Because I know for a damn fact that all you're going to have is cupcakes and popcorn and candy and cake or whatever. I'm going to eat and drink before I go to a birthday kid's party. But a lot of these parents, they you know they expect too much and sometimes a lot of these parents that are doing these parties are on a budget so you know respect them eat before you go drink before you go and you won't have no problem and this way you ain't got nothing negative to talk about all right that's one take allison allison is it unreasonable to think that if you're hosting people there would be food for them yeah i agree with melissa i always just assume it's only for the kids so i will eat ahead of time like if there is some big feast for me later great um but i just assume not you know because it's for the children i wasn't invited but my child was invited okay interesting i you know look this is why we love these debates because everyone comes at it from a different point of view all right finally tonight there are just 76 days left in the year 2026 in case you were wondering benjamin moore has joined sherwin-williams in dropping their color of the year for 2027 and architectural digest says it's the design equivalent of touching grass so what is it you're wondering stand by hold for applause the color is called Webster Green it's described as a verdant mid-tone with cozy blue gray undertones now this is Sherwin-Williams color of the year a similar route though they went with the green theirs though is celery so going green in 2027 Lex do you like it or do you not i think i do i feel like i actually just had a friend one of my really good friends who painted an accent wall in her room a green i think that it can feel it's bright enough to brighten your day without being overkill like if you walk into your room after a long day and it's like
