At the behest of an AI that sounds uncannily like Nick Offerman, CJ and Scott tackle the year 1999. They deep-dive into Y2K and wisely avoid getting sucked into the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal (though they still manage to talk about the 'Artist formerly known as Prince Andrew' and the Epstein Files). Scott confounds CJ with a hitherto unknown ability to identify obscure 1999 movie quotes, and even more so with his Jar Jar Binks impersonation.

CJ and Scott look back to 1983... when Ronald Reagan was president, Maggie Thatcher ruled the UK with an iron fist, and the Australian Prime Minister held the world record for downing a yard of ale! There were loads of disasters (really, far too many), and the Commodore 64 was the computer of choice for millions. We chat about the hundreds of tampons NASA's boffins thought Sally Ride needed for her shuttle flight, which made her the first US woman in space. We learn about CJ's obsession with the movie Wargames, and about the associated nuclear near-disasters of the era! You'll laugh. You'll cry. And you'll wish that you too could get married at the motor registry!

CJ and Scott risk the wrath of Skynet as they turn over the topic of this episode to A.I.! ChatGPT chose the year 1969 (who said A.I. didn't have a sense of humor?) and gave the boys some of the big events of that year to discuss. They talk Beatles, Manson Murders, Woodstock, Monty Python, and, of course, the Moon Landing.
