My prayers have been heard! I’m so glad this is out today!

Every time I read Hank Hill described as some kind of sensible centrist, all I can think of is him defending Reagan *annihilating* mental health services in the US by telling completely unhinged unhoised dude “Well [sighs], it was complicated Spongie. Dutch was tryin' to win a Cold War and...”.

Donovan Eckstrom

Oh boy, I don't know if our news crew will be able to prove this incredibly hot take...

I'm so glad to hear from y'all! And I already wanna die!

Voodoo Reagan, nice.

Vanessa Walsh

x'D gawdamn, this video is a piece of art!

Jane Heyer

Dang it, Cody! You should warned me that this episode would be interactive! I came completely unprepared, having already used my last voodoo doll on Ben Carson.

Jack Black

And guess what. America loved it so much they wanted more with Trump

Andrew Carkner

The brilliant economist JK Galbraith called Reaganomics "horse-and-sparrow theory": its logic is that if you feed a horse enough oats, sparrows will be able to find a few grains in its shit

I went to middle school with a kid named Cnody Johnston. Everyone hated him.

Condy?

Phil Petrella

Wait, they’re doing an entire episode dedicated to Ronald Reagan? The ACTOR??

I was 15 when Reagan was elected and I wept. I knew even then what he was going to do.

Man, there goes my chances with Katie now that she’s dating corn cream…

I was a kid in the 80s but I felt the Reagan years and wished I could vote. I learned a lot even things I had assume were Clinton fault 🤔 as if he couldn't be more a slime ball.

Pelicans are my favorite dinosaur

When I was in 8th grade (1985), on the day our gym/health teacher made us weigh ourselves in front of the whole class, he and a boy in my class were making AIDS/Rock Hudson jokes and laughing hysterically. This was my first year at a new school in a new state (NC). I immediately decided I wanted to flee the area upon reaching adulthood. It took longer than expected but I finally made it out west to CA and was lucky enough to stand on an overpass of the 101 as Reagen's hearse/coffin went under, on the way to the Regan Library and I had the privilege to give him the double-middle fingers.

So what you’re saying is that charisma and folksy charm are enough to distract from world-ruining policies of every kind? But, but, Cody, no, no, what you suggest is horrible, nobody would ever consider taking advan….. AAAGGHHHHHHHHH!!! The CORN!!!!! It’s got me!!! AAAAAAGGGHHH

So was part 2 always scheduled to come way later or did something go majorly wrong? (Or maybe just minor-ly wrong?)

RJ

When is part 2 of this coming out?? Is it just cancelled?
