## 🎓 The Scott Adams School — Fri-YAY, August 14, 2026 It’s **Fri-YAY**, and we are wrapping up the week the way nature intended: with coffee, questionable headlines, useful conversation, and at least a few things that make us wonder how civilization got this far. Today, **Owen and Marcela** have some fun current-event stories for us, maybe a little **science news**, and whatever else has wandered into the news cycle overnight. Plus, **Jake Tapper is doing his very best Tapper Tilt over Donald Trump**, so naturally we’ll take a look at that. There will be news, opinions, laughs, useful observations, and probably a few stories we didn’t even know we were talking about until the show started. So grab your coffee, settle in, and let’s have a **happy end to the week** before we all head off into a well-earned weekend. ☕ **Be useful. Be friendly. Leave the chat better than you found it.** Disagree all you want, but don’t make the experience miserable for everybody else. Nobody gets a trophy for being the most exhausting person in the comments. 👍 **Like the show, subscribe, hit the notification bell, and share it with a friend.** Every little click helps keep the Scott Adams School growing and this community together. 🛍️ **Official Scott Adams merchandise is still available while supplies last.** If there’s something you want, grab it sooner rather than later. Once it’s gone, we can’t promise it’s coming back. And yes, you probably still need a **Simultaneous Swaddle**. ⚠️ As always, **language, clips, and opinions may occasionally be spicy.** Opinions expressed are our own. Happy Fri-YAY, everybody. Let’s have some fun. ☕🎉
