What the #### John? What the hell kind of tease was that? How did he not expose the info? Afraid of repercussions for his family/staff?

Still though, some people in congress might be a bit nervous lol.

I have a feeling this is going to be a long-running segment.

Yeah, why let the cat out of the bag?

Really, best case scenario is legislation to change these privacy issues actually gets introduced. 2nd best case, a bunch of asshats are embarrassed or worse.

Best case scenario is that a bunch of asshats are embarrassed and then legislation is changed...

Apparently something sort of similar happened in England.

So Parliament passed a law that made it illegal to publish internet behaviour of government officials. Lol.

For those who have always wanted to watch a deep dive into the movie Air Bud

Hey! Look at that!

On their 'And Now This' segment about May the 4th during 'Good Day Baltimore' the Flames/Stars score is posted on the ticker!

Thankfully the one we won...

I always skip those segments with the newscasters so I didn't see it.

Really? I like those segments because...broadcast news is so cringey you might as well watch the cringe highlight-pack.

At this point being a newscaster is like a mere half-step up from being the dude in the Barney the Dinosaur costume.

That's why I can't stand them. These people are the Oilers of broadcasting.

I used to watch Oliver quite a bit the first couple years, but dropped off due to just simply watching less TV.

Spent a lot of the last couple months catching up here and there on YouTube and I gotta say, I'm shocked that he's still as good as he was in the beginning, possibly better.

Wild career for this man.
