To honor our founding fathers Jesse Ventura and John Wilkes Booth, of course.

I like that he threw out nonsensical facts and nobody called him on it. Though the Civil War and, essentially, the Battle of Gettysburg are relevant to his question with a different meaning. I am also glad that he had someone give the actual answers at the end.

It's Canada Day, John. Wait your damn turn :)

4th of July was invented by the charcoal-industrial complex as a means of getting the workers to buy more briquettes from their industrial overlords. The whole "13 Colonies" story is a fabrication invented by revisionists. Wake up sheeple!

That is not fair. They were asking people in California. You should have at least asked people living in America.

I thought it was so we could keep the hot dog manufacturers in business.

Yes, that's definitely it, given all the competitive eating contests they host every year.

Celebrating the first Brexit.

So, so very sad. And these people then vote and reproduce.

I like when Leno does it better. The ominous music in the background was silly. Leno or Stern make it fun, this guy not so much.
