☕ THE SCOTT ADAMS SCHOOL | Friday, October 30, 2026

Scott Adams: A Life of Persuasion and Principle — Available for Pre-Order!

It’s Friday—and somehow we’ve reached the end of another week. Today, Erica and Owen welcome back Joel Pollak, this time to celebrate his work as Scott’s biographer!

Scott Adams: A Life of Persuasion and Principle is finally available for pre-order, and we are so freaking excited to talk with Joel about the book, Scott’s remarkable life, and bringing his story to the page. This one means a lot. ❤️

We also have tons of news to discuss, so we’ll see where the conversation takes us. Bring your coffee, your curiosity, and your Friday energy!

📌 Marcela will be back on Monday!

🎭 TWO OTHER CHARACTERS YOU MAY ENCOUNTER

If you hear Erica referring to Chester, that’s her very witty and charming AI assistant. Apparently, he’s part of the cast now. We’re letting the fame go straight to his processors.

And if you hear what sounds like a little baby crying, it’s probably Stella, Erica’s senior kitty, who always has a lot to say—and absolutely no intention of waiting for her turn. 🐾

🎙️ SATURDAY AFTER-PARTY WITH OWEN

Join Owen Gregorian on X tomorrow, Saturday, October 31, at 10 AM ET / 7 AM PT—the same time as The Scott Adams School! Owen will talk news, and you’ll have a chance to join the conversation and talk with him.

🛍️ OFFICIAL COFFEE WITH SCOTT ADAMS MERCH

Pre-orders are open for the official Coffee with Scott Adams mugs and winter beanies! You can also pick up your Simultaneous Swaddles and hats. International shipping is available!

☕ **The Scott Adams School | Thursday, October 29, 2026**

Today, **Erica and Owen** tackle the midterm elections, Israel, Muslims, monkeys, and so much more. Yes, monkeys made the agenda. It’s that kind of news day.

We’ve got plenty to cover, a little Debris to sort through, and no guarantees about where the conversation will take us. Grab your beverage, settle in, and join us for the **Simultaneous Sip!**

**Marcela is off today and tomorrow**, handling business in court and doing her lawyer thing. We’ll try to behave in her absence. No binding promises.

🎙️ **A quick introduction to Erica’s unofficial office staff:**

If you hear Erica talking to **Chester**, that’s her elite, amazing AI assistant—now apparently a recurring character on the show. The position comes with absolutely no benefits, but plenty of assignments.

And if you hear a meow, that’s **Stella**, Erica’s senior kitty, making one of her frequent cameos. She always has something to say, rarely waits for a handoff, and considers every microphone an open microphone. 🐾

📚 **Tomorrow: Joel Pollak joins us!**

We’ll have the **pre-order link for the much-anticipated Scott Adams biography** to share with you tomorrow. We’re excited to have Joel back and bring you more about this special project.

☕ THE SCOTT ADAMS SCHOOL | Hump Day with Erica & Marcela

Wednesday, October 28, 2026

It’s Hump Day, and Erica and Marcela have plenty to get us over the hump—including an amazing lesson from Scott Adams on **reframing your brain**. Sometimes a different perspective changes everything.

Then we’ll see where the news, the clips, and the conversation take us. On the possible menu:

• Patriotism—and Dr. Phil’s take on it

• Van Jones has a moment of clarity

• Mike Waltz is becoming quite the badass at the UN

• Bob Woodward: somehow, our opinion isn’t improving

• Maybe a little Bret Weinstein

• Adam Carolla slams the media

• And whatever other Debris Erica brings to class!

Will we get to all of it? Let’s not make promises we can’t keep. Buckle up, relax, grab your beverage for the Simultaneous Sip, and enjoy your Wednesday with us.

# The Scott Adams School

**Tuesday, October 27, 2026**

The Home Team is together, and we’re excited to welcome **Joshua Lisec** back to The Scott Adams School!

Today is a big day for Joshua: his book, *Haitians of Springfield*, is released! Congratulations, Joshua! We’ll talk with him about the book and see where the conversation takes us.

We’ve also got plenty of news to discuss, including the **Ohio race, the midterms, James Comey, and illegal immigration**. And, as always, you never quite know where the show might go!

**Monday Again? Yikes. The Home Team Returns!**

Erica, Owen, and Marcela are back together to catch you up on **the Debris**—leftover news, clips, and interesting bits from last week—plus the weekend and a look into the future. What could possibly go sideways?

We might even have clips from **Jerry Seinfeld, Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, Bret Weinstein**, and more. And, of course, some kind of animal video, because Erica lives for them. The news may disappoint; the animals rarely do.

☕ Grab your beverage and join us for the **Simultaneous Sip!**

☕ **The Scott Adams School | Friday, October 23, 2026**

**It’s Friday! Where did the week go?!**

Erica and Marcela are here to wrap up the week with the most fabulous group of people ever—ALL OF YOU. ❤️

Today we’re digging into **the Debris!** The Debris are the leftover news items and clips that Erica didn’t get to during the week—plus cat videos, Jamie West, animal clips, interesting ideas, and whatever wonderfully silly things caught her attention. You know who you’re dealing with.

Kid Rock, Piers Morgan, Swisher and Clinton, Steve Cortes, and more are in the mix. Consider it the Friday buffet. We make no promises about what ends up on the same plate.

📺 **Our main event: a little time travel with Scott.**

We’re heading back to 1999 for Scott Adams’s interview on *Charlie Rose*, talking Dilbert and *The Dilbert Principle*. A wonderful look back at Scott—complete with the retro vibe that inspired today’s thumbnail.

Sit back, grab your beverage for the **Simultaneous Sip**, and let’s have some fun, share some information, and finish the week together.

**Walter Kirn Returns!**

Walter Kirn sits down with Erica and Marcela today—and what will we talk about? Nobody knows. UFOs? Midterms? The simulation? Literature? Erica is hoping there won’t be a required reading list.

Whatever Walter wants to talk about, we want to hear it. Grab your beverage, settle in for the Simultaneous Sip, and join us for a conversation that could go just about anywhere.

**Hump Day: UGGHHHH…**

Erica and Marcela are here to help get you over the hump—and apparently everybody has decided to make that a group project.

We’ve got tons of news: midterms, polling, apologies, accusations, responses, and whatever fresh craziness arrives before we finish our coffee. Yikes. Grab your favorite beverage, settle in, and let’s sort through some of it together.

☕ **The Scott Adams School | Manic Monday**

**Monday, October 19, 2026**

The home team—Erica, Owen, and Marcela—is together to kick off another week, and the weekend gave us plenty to unpack. Apparently, the news did not observe our days off.

Today we’re talking about France, Macron, and the protests happening there. What might it mean for us here, and how do we reconcile what we’re seeing without letting the headlines take over our lives? Maybe Scott can help. We’re turning to his perspective for a little grounding amid the noise.

Plus, Senator Elissa Slotkin earns our **“Loser of the Day”** discussion as we examine her recent remarks and ask whether the people warning about political intimidation are practicing a little of it themselves. We’ve also got more news, clips, and the home team’s takes on a very busy weekend.

Grab your coffee, settle in for the **Simultaneous Sip**, and let’s sort through some of this together.

❤️ **We’re grateful you’re here.** Getting to show up every day, spend this time together, and keep the community Scott brought together connected means so much to us. Whether you join us live or catch the replay, thank you for making us part of your day.

It’s Fri-YAY, and we’re going back to the future! Erica, Owen, and Marcela are together to wrap up the week with news, current events, and a look at Elon’s new Tesla Roadster.

We watched the live demo last night, and… wow. Marcella has the details, and we’ve got clips and video to share. Somebody check the flux capacitor. 🚗⚡

We’ll also get into the latest on Jack Smith and a few other tidbits. Grab your coffee, settle in for the Simultaneous Sip, and let’s finish the week together!
