The hosts express frustration over a new, slower version of the "ABC Song" attributed to Disney or Common Core influences, which changes the traditional rhythm of the "L-M-N-O-P" sequence. This change is viewed as an unnecessary disruption of a universal cultural standard.

They challenge the notion that younger generations are "immune" to advertising, arguing instead that they are the primary targets for sophisticated branded content from outlets like Vice. The hosts suggest that Vice's large production budgets are proof of its role as a high-end advertising platform.
