RFK Jr. went twenty-one rounds with CNN's Dana Bash over COVID, Fauci, and the measles outbreak — and on tonight's Boomer Bunker, John says Bash looked like "a deer in the headlights" by the end of it. Then Sophie Cunningham takes an elbow straight to the face defending her stance that the WNBA should stay biological women only — and somehow SHE gets called for the foul. John and the Duchess break down why both sides are turning her into a political pawn, whether Trump gets fairly blamed for a Fauci mess that started under Biden, and why a SoHo CVS worker got fired within 24 hours of filing workers' comp for a jaw a knife-wielding attacker shattered while she was defending a security guard.

Also tonight: Chelsea Handler wants Joe Rogan's $82 million podcast paycheck redirected to veterans — so John and the Duchess run their own "Guess the Payday" game with Forbes' full highest-paid podcasters list. Schools are now deploying pepper-spray drone swarms against active shooters, which turns into a full robot-dog-and-flamethrower brainstorm session live on air. And Trump pauses new strikes on Iran to chase a deal — cue "Trump Tweets Read by Kate" and the Rocky/Apollo Creed breakdown of why Iran might win a war it can't actually win.

Topics Covered:

  • Sophie Cunningham's elbow, no foul called t.
  • RFK Jr. vs. Dana Bash on CNN
  • Chelsea Handler vs. Joe Rogan's $82M payday
  • SoHo CVS worker fired after workers' comp claim
  • Pepper-spray drones in schools
  • Iran, Trump's paused strikes, and the Hormuz standoff
  • Fantasy Football League kickoff
  • MTV's 45th anniversary
  • Listener voicemails — Dean closes it out with a joke even John admits he shouldn't have laughed at.
