In a weak move, Jimmy Fallon apologizes but is still 'cancelled' for making jokes 20 years ago when footage surfaces of him in blackface. This segues neatly into conversation about the power tripping evident in the 'Karen' phenomenon, especially the latest example in New York City. Because of the racial component, this story then leads naturally into the heavy topic of George Floyd, who was killed without justification by cops. Tim and Adam discuss the role racism still plays or doesn't play in the American culture, based on these two stories.
