After returning from his travels in the Midwest, Jeff recounts his conversations with the people he met there who generally favor a more robust military response to the Russian forces invading Ukraine. Most are not happy about the Biden Administration's "lead from behind everyone else" strategy as it seems content to let countries such as Liechtenstein and Estonia take the lead in countering Russian aggression. Burger King pokes Putin in the eye by ending its support for some 800 franchised restaurants in Russia--which means that members of the Kremlin will no longer be able to enjoy genuine whoppers. Adam and Jeff applaud Burger King for offering $3 million in humanitarian aid to Ukraine--particularly if Burger King includes whoppers with cheese and bacon as well as crispy fries and soft drinks. Adam thinks that Burger King could go further to help Ukraine defend itself by dropping thousands of whoppers on Russian troops with Wagner's "Flight of the Valkyries" blaring from plane-mounted loudspeakers. Whoppers could also be fired from bazookas with devastating effect.
