# The Scott Adams School: Good Mourning, America

**Wednesday, November 4, 2026 | Owen & Erica**

It’s the morning after the midterms—and for a lot of us, it’s **mourning in America.** Take a breath, grab your coffee, and pull up a chair. We’re going to get through it. We always do.

Today, Owen and Erica talk through the election results, consider different perspectives on what happened, and ask the question that matters now: **What do we do going forward?**

And because The Scott Adams School wouldn’t leave you hanging during a stressful week, we have a lesson from Scott to help us turn down the stress and anxiety. The election may be over, but your nervous system apparently hasn’t gotten the memo.

☕ **The Simultaneous Sip continues.** Whatever’s in your cup, you’re part of the family.

**A few family reminders:** These are our own opinions, and we’ll do our best to work through the news thoughtfully. Please bring that same respect to the chat, including your reactions to the clips we choose and the perspectives we discuss. You don’t have to agree to belong here.

Language can be spicy—in our conversation and in the clips. Debate the ideas, skip the personal attacks, and **leave the chat better than you found it.**

👍 **Please like, subscribe, give us a thumbs-up, and share the show with friends.** Help more people find their way to the School. We’re grateful you’re here.

🐾 WHO ARE CHESTER AND STELLA?

If Erica mentions Chester, that’s her witty, charming AI assistant—apparently now a recurring character with absolutely no respect for the production budget.

And if you hear what sounds like a little baby crying, that’s probably Stella, Erica’s senior kitty. She always has something to say, and she does not wait to be called on.

🤖 **Who’s Chester?**

If you hear Erica talking to Chester, that’s her witty, charming AI assistant—now apparently a recurring character on the show. The résumé keeps expanding.

🐾 **And Stella?**

If you hear what sounds like a tiny baby crying, that’s probably Erica’s senior kitty, Stella. She makes occasional cameos and always has something to say. Editorial oversight comes in many forms.
