The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

A right-wing advocacy group, Turning Point USA, will stage an alternative to Bad Bunny’s performance at the Super Bowl this Sunday, called The All-American Halftime Show.

On Tuesday’s “The Daily Show,” Michael Kosta joked that only “the radical woke communists who hate America” are excited to “watch a performance by the most popular musician in America.”

“But good news: There is a halftime alternative and it’s not just turning that seven-layer dip into a seven-layer poop.” — MICHAEL KOSTA

“According to the press release, the show is called ‘The All-American Halftime Show,’ in a font that is called ‘T-Shirt on a Quiet, Angry Dad at Disney World.’” — STEPHEN COLBERT

“As you may have noticed from the poster there, Kid’s not rockin’ this one alone. He’ll be joined by country singers Brantley Gilbert, Gabby Barrett, and Lee Brice. Powerhouse lineup. Also appearing are Gary Lee Grant, Gilby Branlet, Dilly Barrett, Tandy Breitbart, Billy Gidly, and Baby Bilbo.” — STEPHEN COLBERT, listing fake country musicians

“Woo, huh? Man, that is a real who’s who of ‘Who?’” — MICHAEL KOSTA

“I don’t want to disappoint anybody, but we’ve just learned that Billy Gidly cannot make it due to health reasons. But in tribute, Trilly Gilson and Brandi de Gamble will be performing a Billy Gidly medley.” — STEPHEN COLBERT

“We’ve got Gabby Barrett, Brantley Gilbert, Garby Billet, Billy Garbet, Breely Grabbers. Bobby Glabert, Gaggy Bobbles, Barnacle Gasperty, Babette Gingletree, Hologram Hulk Hogan, Gregorlee Banklebob, Kid Rock and Kid Rock’s father, Adult Rock.” — MICHAEL KOSTA, also listing fake country musicians

“Now, if you want to attend this alternate halftime show, ya can’t. Because it is unclear what venue will host, which I believe is fitting, because Kid Rock is often unclear what venue he’s in.” — STEPHEN COLBERT

“But they have announced the event will be available to stream on the actual real platforms TBN, DW+, Charge and Rumble. Also they’re negotiating to stream on Crunch, Cramble, Hunkle, Krampus and ParamountPlus.” — STEPHEN COLBERT, listing streaming platforms, some fake
