Treasury Secretary nominee Steven Mnuchin discusses tax cuts, specifically using the term "upper class" instead of "wealthy." John Dvorak expresses distaste for the term, arguing that the U.S. does not have a formal class structure like the UK. The hosts analyze the linguistic shift in political reporting regarding tax policy.

The hosts attempt to define the upper class, setting a threshold of $100 million in assets. They play a clip of Elizabeth Warren arguing that the middle class is defined by access to education rather than a specific dollar figure. John Dvorak suggests that modern political definitions of class are rooted in Marxist concepts of the bourgeoisie.

A traveler on Virgin Atlantic's upper class reported an aggressive confrontation with flight staff over the removal of a seat divider. Despite the divider being user-removable for a "love seat" configuration on previous flights, crew members claimed it posed a structural danger to the aircraft. Formal complaints were directed to Virgin executives including Richard Branson and Steve Ridgeway regarding declining service standards and personnel cuts.
