You may remember our final exam matchup between bitter rivals dana perino and greg gutfeld. For the questions about bananas going extinct. We remember that match for the difficulties the contestants had with their buzzers. What did he do when they broke . Watch. We have a little bit of a problem. We do not lie to our audience. We were supposed to do an exam in which the first person to hit the buzzer gets the light and there gets a chance to talk and answer the question, but what happened . Technical difficulties. They are not working. We could quit but if we were anything but great americans who would have quit. Bulgarians would have given up. We are doing this for the people. And what should we do for the people . We are going to raise our hands. First hand up. If theres a problem with noticing, if its a tie we go to katelyn, who is interning this year. Her entire career is based on this moment. There are so many different ways to spell caitlin by the way. It is out of control. Hopefully this is number one. Lets start with number one, here we go. This week, starbucks announced in an effort to go green it will phase out what product from their stores . Dana. Straws. Is at straws . Go to the tape. Starbucks plans to scrap Plastic Straws globally by the year 2020 to be more environmentally friendly. This move will eliminate more than a billion Plastic Straws per year from starbucks stores.

We should have told you ahead of time. I blame caitlin. Caitlin you are fired you are not getting credit for this semester. The wrong answer. I would have never said melons great show of sportsmanship and wisdom. I was thinking about melons for other reasons. I cannot stand by walking by trees getting hit in the head. Question number four, citing concerns about the environment, hawaii has become the first state in the nation to ban what popular item from its beaches . It is plastic beach balls, sunscreen, speedos . Greg . Sunscreen. I was there when it happened.

Sunscreen containing two chemicals, Oxley Bensalem killing their coral reefs. Better than getting skin cancer. We are in sudden death. This has never been done before except for last week and the week prior. Final question, again, playing themselves, dana and greg. Sit up straight. Can roll back the question to the beginning because i didnt memorize the first three words, thank you. This one could either be really tough or really easy.
