I fear for us as Americans.
The first guy (a UCLA graduate) used all 3 of his “cheats” on the first 3 questions, had “dropped out” after expending all of them. The guy didn’t know that polar bears DON’T eat penguins, didn’t know how to get the height of a triangle knowing the base and area, didn’t know that Andrew Johnson was the first US president to be impeached (and the dude majored in US History). I am saddened.
Second woman was unsure that the Mayflower was the ship the pilgrims used to sail to Plymouth in 1620. She didn’t know what REM stands for.
The show continues tomorrow. I’ll be sure to tune in, if only so I feel better about myself and my college education (that I haven’t forgotten yet.)
