fully falling apart over there? Is that is that like
Bluey you know, that's Australian. Peppa Pig is a fucking
Octinots is also I think a UK product.

Okay, just my kids fuck with octonauts, actinouts. Those are yeah,

there is mister Miles time.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Did you see the thing over the weekend NSPM seven
that they're using counter terrorism to go after people who
are anti capitalist, anti American, anti traditional views, having views
on gender, extreme views on immigration.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, very very very very interesting thing. Yeah. Yeah,
it's almost an insult at this point that like they
haven't come after us. It's like, damn, it's one of
those things.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
This is the thing though, with all these oh that again,
if you're anti fascism, they're also you're apparently these are indicators,
as they say, for terrorists terroristic activity.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
But I mean, I think you just look at again.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
All authoritarians are very thin skinned and weak, so like
so much of the stuff that you hear is like, oh.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Yeah, now I'm banning this, and now I'm doing this.
I mean it's not a law technically, but I can
cause issues with it. Yeah, And business leaders are always
trying to get ahead of whatever's going on, right, so
they're gonna, you know, try and.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Well I we'll see man, you know, because it makes
It takes money to make money.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
That's right, That's right.

it was so this is the episode we tell you
was trending. But we also in our hearts let you
get to know us a little bit better by yeah
telling it, telling you what's trending in our hearts and
(03:18):
our minds. Miles, we do that by doing an overrated underrated.
It's something we do with our guests on regular episodes.
Just in case you forgot about this, so I did.
It's something we do ourselves on these Monday morning episodes, Myles,
what is something that you think is underrated?
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Well, and like the guests, I'm gonna not prepare for
this at all and just make something up right now
that I.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Can hopefully recover.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
On the other end, it's kind of like throwing a
frisbee up in the air and trying to chase it
down yourself.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
No, think is an only child. I feel like that's
a reference that it's really hard with you. I'm piuring Frisbee.
Look at it, just laying the fuck out for like
you see that dad.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
That's right, he's not there, Oh right, And I slit
in dog shit laying out for them, Frisbee. Then I
didn't even fucking catch Oh it was human shit. Well,
welcome to La Welcome to Tuesday. In nineteen ninety five,
Miles at his eleven year old um.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Underrated. Friends that make you feel like a terrible person,
I think are underrated.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Now let me let me expand on this. People in
your lives who are such pure hearted angels that you
cannot fathom how pure of heart they are, that you
cannot help when you are in their presence, but feel
like absolute human detritus.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Now I think that's underrated. I think you need these
people in your lives.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Yeah. I have a few people like this in my life.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
We all know people who are like in a way
like you think, they're like almost sociopathically kind or gentle,
you know what I mean. We're thinking Alex Schmitz here,
we're thinking of their annals, you know what I mean.
Just people are like, how the fuck are you so sweet?
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Yeah? Where where is this coming from? You must have
a brain imbalance of something like a white guy thing
huh or anything like this. But no, like just people
who are kermit Yeah okay, man shout out the Kermits
out there, out to the kermits. Man.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
No, but like truly like people and I my description
is flippant just for a laugh, but like people who
are so kind that they actually inspire you to be
better because you're like, you're not faking this, you are
so genuinely wired to help people. Case in point, a
friend of ours had a birthday and this guy was like, guys,
(05:46):
I don't want to do anything.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I just want to people to come over.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Let's have some dinner, bring something off this list of supplies,
because we're gonna put like bags together for like the unhoused,
to give to people who like could look like it
could use some help. Oh fuck you, I'm just I'm like, God,
damn it. I said, let's go eat at a restaurant
I really liked. But I mean, but in this way,
(06:12):
I need.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Some NFTs my shit coin guys. And then I want
you to I want you to write a book of
poems for me, but I want them to be all
written by AI and exactly they all have to be
about how I'm a pervert.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
But it was just so like nice because in this
in this gathering of people, everyone also began talking about
how much of a great like activity this was because
a lot of people in this friend group are very
like active and generous people to begin with, but like this,
like this sort of way to do it. Everyone's like, man,
(06:49):
this is actually what I should be doing to like
when I have moments to gather people, it's like we
can all hang out and do something to help better
the community around us. And it doesn't have to feel like,
you know, like you're doing it alone. It's like it's fun.
So afterwards Her Majesty and I were driving home.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
I'm like, God, damn it, man, this he's such a
fucking angel.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
What a good fucking guy. And the way he also
put it to is like, I'm just so grateful to
have all all of you guys in my life. I
just I also just want to be able to find
a way to sort of like have that gratitude resonate
outwardly too. And I was like, you're a fucking algorithm, man.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Not only is he making you feel like a terrible person,
I don't even know this motherfucker's making me feel like
a terrible person.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
That's kind of not gonna I'm not gonna call him
up by name, but I just I'm just saying, you're
an angel these people in our lives. I'm actually very
grateful for these kinds of people too, because they you
realize too, even with all the shit you have going on,
there are ways for you to kind of focus the
gratitude you have in your life in a way that's
like outwardly beneficial. So for that again, what I mean
(07:55):
to say, our friends that inspire you to do better,
and they do it, and they.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Do it so easily. They do it so easily. There's
also no fictional corollary for this person. So like viewing
them at a distance, you know them, You're like you
have a personal relationship with them, so you're like, oh,
I know this person. They have texture. But like you
hearing that story, I the only narrative direction my brain
(08:19):
can go is just wait for the other shoe to drop. Yeah,
you know, because we don't have.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
He's not he teaches children like musical instruments, like volunteers.
He's a he has a fucking amazing head of hair.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Said yeah, one party.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
One guy at the party was like, dude, if you
had a six pack, we'd have to kill you.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
And he just like and he involuntarily just like pushed
his shirt down because he does and he doesn't want
anybody for real, for real, He's like, no, I don't.
It's like a four pack. Yeah, it's actually really messy
down there. I mean, my oblique definition isn't that great.
I had a six pack, but then I felt like
it was shaming my friends who didn't, and so I
(09:06):
did the raging bull thing where I just started drinking
milkshakes instead of water. But it up a little bit
that act.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
He'd find a way for that activity to be beneficial
to mankind. He's like, there was a bunch of milk
that was gonna go bad, but I drank it to
intercept it from children.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
It's like I'd still find a way to be like, well,
I got rid of my six pack and also helped
people that need At the same time.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
It is tough to hear the about this person at
a distance, Like it's we do need we need more
fictional corollaries, We need more people who are just good
people in fiction, Like there's got to be a way
to do it, because yeah, my brain can only be like,
(09:52):
what's their fucking angle?
Speaker 1 (09:54):
It's like or it feels like in that movie Just Friends,
Chris Klein's character Dusty Dingkleman, you were just like, oh
my god, like you know, it's so cheery or whatever,
like they always have these characters like as a foil
for your like main character. Right, this guy is the
main character the you know what I mean. And it's
(10:15):
not like a gimmick. You're just like, God, damn man,
I'm like, and we all know people like this. I'm
just grateful that these people exist in our world because yeah,
I'm like, maybe seventy percent.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Good. Well, we got to check on this person in
five years, Miles. I need to hear update when they've liked.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
He's gonna be like he's so he's so happy, he's
gonna I can already tell you he's happy, and you
know what, he's finding a way to get through it
with his community intact.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Fuck man. Yeah, yeah, My underrated was having your friends
do an AI book of poetry for fuck? How do
I audible here? Now? Mine is a seven year old
hypothetical question. My seven year old from seven years ago.
Oh yeah, yeah, exactly. Now my seven year old is just,
(11:09):
you know, at a place where they're very curious about
the world, and I'm not gonna lie to you. A
lot of what comes out of their mouths, you know,
my kids is garbage content. And I'm like, give me,
I cannot monetize this. Yeah, but when I have the
patients and just like listen like they So he gave
(11:33):
me this one this weekend, which I want to ask
other people. Would you write first? He just did his
hand like this and was like how big is this,
which is like I was like three four inches. He
was like, all right, would you rather be that big
or forty five feet tall? M I was like neither,
but he was like, no, you got to pick one.
(11:55):
Like you can't shut this down, dad, We're this No,
we got a yes and this one. And I was like,
all right, So if you're forty five feet tall, the
government would come for you. He's like, I don't know
what they like it? Maybe why would they come for you?
Do you think they would care that much? Yes, your
(12:15):
extreme size would be seen as somehow could be weaponized
if you're super tiny? Is that just movies? Like? Because
I would suck shit as a weapon, Like I would
be the worst. I mean, are you just forty five
feet tall and you got like Marfan syndrome just like
the same size, but like forty five feet tall, just
the same size.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Yeah, I mean, at least there's doll clothes you can wear. Like,
there's no there's no like immediate place to get cool.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Just clothing yourself would be tough.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Yeah, you're it's going to be out the whole time.
And then you like a thirteen foot dick, Yeah, which
is kind of cool, but you're not because that is
this is your internal monologue.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Hmm, forty five ft what are you thinking? Dad? Hold
on one second? One second? Yeah. I was like, I
was like, you can't hide from anyone essentially, meaning like
you would never be able to like not be perceived,
Like you would just be constantly on display all weeds,
no matter where you were. And he was like, oh, yeah,
(13:16):
you would suck at Hide and Seek. I was like, well, yeah, yeah,
I guess that's true. I guess like that is the
main war right now. Yeah, like you could, like you
could find your own skull island. I guess sure, if
you're playing hide and Seek, you would suck shit, and
then four inches, which, as you pointed out, doll clothes,
(13:37):
like there are certain conveniences of that, but you would
probably be lonely. Oh yeah, you're lonely either way. But
like you're constantly surrounded by people when you're forty feet
forty five not being noticed.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Right, It's there are just two extremes. One is that
you will you are You'll never be alone. People will
always be gawking at you because you're forty five feet tall,
or you're so small.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
You can disappear, but you can disappear and have like
nobody notice, you know, yeah, sure, sure, sure, which so
I was also thinking you got to take the big
because you know you can again, you could always uh
hide away, but you'd be like, I don't know, I
feel like I would just disappear, like withdrawal completely. And also,
(14:23):
if you're that small, you could get eaten by a bird,
which I feel.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
At least an ax predator a forty five feet tall exactly.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
That's the thing, Like you got to consider the food chain.
You got to go back to the very basics. I
could throw a hippopotamus.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Across the Atlantic Ocean, right, That's what I'm picturing just
like a fucking tribute shit.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Just like get out of here. Yeah, yeah, which would
be so fun, Like I would be doing that all
the time.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
They're like this guy's he's he's hurting animals, just throwing
like elephants and things because he can.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
So yeah, that was one. He was asking what age
i'd choose to be in heavy and after I was God,
After I was like, uh, dude, Heaven's not real. What
are you talking about? Yeah, and you go, you go,
how do you know this is in hell right now?
Buddhism just saying you know what I mean? That shit
(15:17):
my parents said to me, and I was like, what
the fuck? So I eventually went with like twenty do
you how what age would you be? Why? Why do
we have to pick an age?
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Is it because like you're frozen in time at that age?
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Yeah? You just like go up there and you're an age,
you're some version of yourself. What age would it be
in heaven? Yeah, we're just like in any scenario where
you just exist perpetually in that state? What age are
you going on? Oh? Like right now, I'm good, I'm chilling.
Forty one. Forty one is cool? So I said my twenties.
(15:48):
I said the twenties and they were like, which was
it was really touchy. They were like, oh, but like
we wouldn't recognize you, like that's not the age we like,
we didn't never knew you at that age. Why would
you do that? And I was like, ah fuck. I
was like, all right, I'll go with what I am
now nine years old. I'm gonna be in your guys level.
I'll go forty five. And then they were like forty oh,
(16:11):
let's go, let's go forty three. So basically they were
like letting me know that I peaked two years ago. Essentially,
they're like, we can't even recognize you now, dad, Yeah, exactly,
look at you, look at what you've become. So anyways,
shout out to conversations I do, like you know, I
(16:32):
have to sometimes just like make myself engage and be
like I don't have anywhere to go, Like let's just
imagine that I had like there's nothing else going on
and just sit there and like be with them, and
when I do, a very rewarding experience. Yeah, that I learned.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
It's great too, because everyone offers each other their perspective,
like they're gonna say shit, that you're like, I didn't
even really think about that, because it's such an interesting
way of like thinking as a child, like with your
innocence intact. And then you're gonna say some shit to
them that will clearly split open their heads with like
like some kind of you know, revelation to them that.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
They're like, whoa, I think you could be lonely and
lonely and big. Yeah. I kept it pretty on the
surface level with that. I didn't want to get too
deep into full Daddy Gray on them. Anyways. Also shout
out to the game twenty Questions, which we play a lot,
(17:30):
and I feel like great wave passing the time and
seven or nine year olds are are big fans. What's
something you think is overrated? My overrated comedians? Oh, come on,
they're the new Philosopher's Star. Just they're the new rock stars. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
By these people, I mean all the people who are
taking that money to go to the set the riadd
Comedy Festival in Saudi Arabia, Like there's clearly you have
people like past guest Otsko Okotska. She she posted the
email where she was invited to really yeah to the festival,
(18:10):
and it was like, look at what it says, like
these there's rules, and like I just couldn't get behind it,
considering that like they just disappear people for like being
gay or a journalist or whatever, like this is kind
of wacky, y'all. And you know, and seeing and the
way she put it was like and just seeing all
like the you can't say anything anymore comedians just like
(18:34):
just dying to take this money to do that. When
you're they're literally handed a list of things you can't
say while you're there. It's really something. And I think
just generally, I think with the wave that I feel
like is waning of like the Rogan the Brogan Sphere
version of comedy, Like these people have just completely lost
the art, like they don't understand what the art of
(18:56):
comedy even is. And I think because they were they
were sort of formed in this era where views were
being rewarded with money rather than like and I mean
like the number of clicks impressions views, not your actual views,
like as a person. That allowed for this very like
(19:17):
just dark version of quote unquote comedy to emerge. It
wasn't ironic, which was all punching down, which is all
antithetical to I'm sure all of these comedians like who
exist in that world. They will always name other comedians
that are like legends as like their inspirations. And most
of those people were not the kind who were just
being like.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Yeah, freaking gay people punching down taking money from fascist countries.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Like these, Like a lot of these people were saying
things in an era where you couldn't express yourself and
had to face the consequences because of like decency laws,
like you know what I mean, And just to see
those people completely lose that message, be like, yeah, comedy
is just about saying like the most caustic shit out loud,
(20:05):
but maybe if you present it in a funny way
and get away with.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
It, then haha, I'm I'm fucking goaded. It's just like
it's I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
I just look at them, like, y'all are fucking so dumb,
You're so bad at this. Yeah, and you're telling on
yourselves in such a way that you have your worldview
is completely fucked up.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Like I saw who was it?
Speaker 1 (20:25):
I think it was Jim Jeffries or something equivocating And
he's like, yeah, I took the mind.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
They gonna say, oh yeah, they disappeared if they are
journalist or whatever, like you don't think journalists are getting
killed here.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
And you're like, oh, oh so so what like what
is so what's your what's your viewpoint?
Speaker 2 (20:42):
It's fine then, because it's happening everywhere.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Yeah, so you know, I'm sure they'll take their money
and then they'll cry about it when they get home
about how they got canceled for going to riod to
do some like comedy washing for the Kingdom's human rights record.
But yeah, just like that, these people just don't even
understand what comedy is or good comedy and like the
real ship, the things that the things that have you, uh,
(21:07):
that keep you in people's memories are like the truths
that you spoke that resonated through your art form of
actually speaking truth to power rather than being co opted
by power and making half truths.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
I agree with a lot of this. I would say
that you're talking like someone who hasn't watched the latest
Rogan special and I did, really but all right, you
watch it, but did you really watch it? Like did
you really watch it? Where like the he talks.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
About it became too much to became a distraction from
the part where the cattle prod like he talks about
the cattle probably going up your prostate. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's level dog.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
That is a classic. You're right, and I didn't.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I missed that whole part about how that was a
commentary on pole Pots Rise to Power.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Oh man, did you hear Carlin's Polepot set where he
went where he went to and performing for pole Pot
Pulpott getting a taser up his ass right, prosting, he's
coming so hard, Paul Pot loved loved that ship all right. Uh,
my overrate the ability to feel someone is watching you,
(22:23):
Uh is my overrated? You know, like in novels they're
always making you have a superpower right now. No, I'm
saying everybody ascribes humans with this superpower, especially in novels.
It's like mainly novels where like they love to be
like they could sense someone's eyes on them and turned
around and like they're always right. You know. It's never
(22:46):
like me after a horror movie being like I had
this ineffable sense that someone was in the room with
me and it turned out it was it was fine,
just like fell asleep and we're not. I had a
hoodie on, but yeah, I don't know I've I've sensed
someone was in the room with me before because I like,
(23:06):
you know, heard someone move or something, and but that
probably like broke through to my like unconscious mind that
I and then it registered as like some spidey sense.
I've also since, like I said someone was in the
room with me, just because I was scared and I've
been wrong, you know. Yeah, So I was thinking about that.
(23:29):
I meditating a place in my yard. It's like my
side yard where I can like see people walking by
on the street and I'm always like worried that someone's
just gonna turn and like see me there and be liked,
what the fuck, you know, like there's just somebody standing
completely still. I do like a standing meditation in the mornings,
(23:50):
and I like they would. You're you're looking out into
the street. Yeah, I look at because that's the direction
the sun's coming from. I'm trying to get a little sun.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Okay, let me just paint the picture so you're fully nude,
You're facing the street.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Sunshine on my shoulder makes me happy. And it can't
be through a T shirt, man. Yeah, yeah, it's got
to be bear. But yeah, it would be a weird
thing if anybody ever noticed it. Nobody ever has liven
by your house in the morning. Just keep an eye
out because I'm standing in the shadow. Like you would
have to really look for it, and nobody ever does.
(24:25):
And that's and that's the only way I get off
to look for me another another day being unperceived. Yeah,
I mean I'm not. I have my eyes closed for
most of the time. But like people would like notice
and flee. Yeah, and they just don't because I'm not
moving and there's nothing there. This is not a real
(24:48):
sense that people know. It's true.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Yeah, you only know because you you have an idea.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Somebody's probably looking. Yeah, like there's part Yeah. We we
are incredibly intuitive. Like our unconscious mind, I think is
incredibly powerful, and so there's all these things that we
ascribe to being like a sixth sense. And it's just
like it's your unconscious mind like putting together a shitload
of data that like it's constantly working. It's this powerful
(25:15):
computer that's working behind the scenes that in a way
that like your conscious mind is not aware of. And
then you'll like let you know every once in a while,
But it's not because of like some extra sensory ability
to sense somebody's eyes on you. It's just your brain
is being an amazing machine. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
The one time I was like, oh, I can feel
someone watching me is because I knew they were watching
me in the creepiest way possible.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
And I told this story before.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
It was doctor dre when I was doing when I
worked at the Laser Tag place, I was seventeen or
eighteen years old. Yeah, and this is like a birthday
place where like they do birthdays every hour and a half.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
So like the second you have a chance to clean
up our room for the next party, come in like
you have to be doing it. I was doing it.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Doctor Drake came in the room when I was chained,
like cleaning up the pizza plates and cake and shit
and the fucking table claws and throwing them away, and
he just sat in a chair and watched me clean up.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Didn't say shit the whole time.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Not on his phone, not on his phone, no, just
and I've talked about just weird as hell.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
And I was like.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Cleaning up, and I'm like, it feels like this motherfucker
watching me.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
And I turned around. He was look just staring at me.
You turn around and he's naked, like me when I meditated. No,
he wasn't. He wasn't. He was he was he was
like this was right around like his like big body.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Build, like when he started really being like big and bodybuilding,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yeah, he was just resting because he needed to get
his mask. Dude. It was so weird.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
I always tell this story and I remember there was
all the only way I could break the ice was.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
Like, hey man, I'm a really big fan. And he
just went yeah, and I was like, this ship is
too much, bro, I'm fucking all right, man, I gotta
get at it. I gotta get out of here. Yeah. Anyways, Uh, novelists,
you need to I'm clean, this isn't real. Maybe it
is a real ability, and I just like don't have it. Yeah,
(27:06):
I'm just so oblivious, Like that guy was following you
the whole time, like I mean they but like scientists say,
it's not a real ability, Like they're like, you're probably
perceiving something out of your peripheral vision or like hearing
something or like you said, we have like pretty good
(27:26):
intuition and can figure things out before we actually see that. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
And the third example scientists give or doctor Dre being weird.
Sometimes it's just doctor J's being really weird. Yeah, all right,
let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
And we're back Big news on the super Bowl halftime show.
It's gonna be bad bunny. He revered from his knee injury.
That made me feel a little bit less old. I
don't know, did you see that where he was heard
about it? I didn't. I didn't actually see the knee injury.
He's just like dancing very slowly on stage, and then
his knee just like does a weird like side wobble thing,
(28:14):
no limps off, which just made me feel like both
scene and also like, man, this could happen a fucking anybody.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Hold on now, I gotta watch this. Oh and he's
got that fun shorts on. He's got the fun shorts.
He's doing like little bunny hop thing and then uh,
it turns out, as somebody said on Twitter, he is
really bad at being a bunny.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Yeah. Oh no, yeah, no, no, no, it was so casual.
I know, it was so casual. It reminds me of that.
Have you ever seen the clip of the guy who
it's like at a gamer conference and they're like, can
you like do a dance to win this, you know
whatever they're giving away, and he's like jumping and then
(29:01):
he just breaks his leg from just jumping in place.
It's just like, damn, man's sorry, I haven't got it
stood up much. Yeah. Anyways, this is a you know,
pretty innocuous news that is of course being politicized red Way. Yeah, yeah, Republicans,
(29:21):
they're loving it. Actually, I was surprised.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
I was surprised because none of these people want to
completely ignore the fact that Puerto Rico is part of
the United States.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Just all these dudes from fucking you know, our.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Favorite lying ass motherfucker, Benny Johnson had had something to say. Obviously,
I don't want to let him. I just want to
remind people what happened to his family when he was
living in DC, because it's a war zone.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
My infant nearly died, thank you. That's the wrong one,
and that's okay.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
In a drug fire, h after mass shootings.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
One more time.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
By infant nearly done right in a drug fire in
a drug fire.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Who set the fire after mass shooting? Oh doesn't matter,
We're moving on to Yeah, and it was probably a
celebratory drug fire that they do in DC after mass shootings.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
His take was massive, Trump had anti ICE activist no
songs in English. The NFL is self distructing year after year.
I think the numbers out there, I think they're doing okay.
Another person said, this is from a conservative radio host
called Bad Bunny said two weeks ago he won't perform
in the US because he scared ICE agents would deport
(30:36):
his fans. Turns out his business sense far outweighs his
moral convictions. Damn, this is a liberal radio host. No, no, no,
so he's not actually worried about Another person from that
Heritage Foundation said he's pushing left wing socialist issues. I mean, like,
you know, credit to Bad Bunny. He was like, I'm
(30:59):
avoiding the US on this tour because I don't want
my shows to become some kind of focal point for
ICE rates. Yeah, if you want, Americans, y'all are free
to come to Puerto Rico. It's actually part of the
United States. Come on down, check it out, or maybe
any other portage. But sadly, I do think of the
(31:19):
people that support me, and I know that there's a
diaspora that the fucking feds are deeming completely illegal no
matter what. Looking like them is illegal, and I'm sure
for them, they're gonna be like, if you're at a
Bad Bunny concert, you're probably you're you fit the criteria
for ice harassment.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
So yeah, I mean I think it's it'll be dope,
and I'm.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Glad, like shout out to them for putting on somebody
that all these are.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Like he doesn't even have songs in English, right, uh huh, yeah,
I mean you can listen. He does. He does say
things in English, but go ahead's probably between him and
like Morgan Whalen. So yeah, I'm glad that wallin Wallin Wallan. Well, yeah,
just don't even put any respect it. I got no
idea how to pronounce that motherfucker's name, but whatever. Yeah,
I'm glad they chose Bad Bunny, all right. Donald Trump
(32:09):
is now invading Portland. Yeah, I thought that's a poland
for a second, I was like, that's two on the noseman.
It's a different guy. It's a different guy that he.
I do wonder if there's some part of it speaking
of the unconscious mind, if he's like, what was how
did he kick off his whole shit? Right? Maybe we
do that. So I was calling it the blitz creak.
(32:33):
He famously loves peace and hates war if you ask
his supporters and him, and yet he just can't quit
invading US cities, specifically ones that don't vote Republican. After
the Ice shooting in Dallas, he naturally ordered the military
to Portland to quote protect war ravaged Portland and any
(32:57):
of our ICE facilities under siege from attack by Antifa
and other domestic terrorists. Protect war ravaged Portland. Guys.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Come on, now, you know even even your own voters
live in the area. You're not gonna be like this
place is war ravage. They're gonna just be like.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
There's too many homeless people. I don't like it.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
Yeah, that's there. That's that's the sort of talking point.
And not because there the fucking city skyline bears the scars.
Speaker 2 (33:28):
Of artillery fire or something like that. I know they
were talking about invading Chicago and like Memphis and are
those coming happening and like not being reported? No, no, no.
The thing with Chicago was that he was pump faking
for weeks, be like we're coming through, We're gonna do it.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
Oh, prepare yourself, you're gonna you're gonna feel war. They
just it's this weekend is when they just started operating
in Chicago, Jesus. So yeah, now there's.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
Like, you know, there's clips of just armed, armed goons
just roaming downtown Chicago, and you're like, what the fuck?
Speaker 1 (34:07):
What are you going to catch people at the fucking
at the Art museum?
Speaker 2 (34:11):
Right? Yeah? Yeah, they just like go to the places
where people where they've like the places from Ferris Bueller,
because that's what they know as Chicago exactly.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
You know, when they did that dance number to Twist
and Shout, I thought it was pretty good. They didn't
they nailed the choreography from that scene in Ferris Bueller.
Speaker 2 (34:28):
Yeah, when when the Ice agents did that, yeah, and they.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
Even the little dance they were doing all I was like, shit,
y'all love Ferris Bueller.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Okay, okay, that would be something that we would see eventually,
It would if they gave enough of a shit.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
In this era of like weird ass law enforcement propaganda,
right like you, I feel like that.
Speaker 2 (34:51):
Was more twenty twenty. Maybe now they they just it's
just bat beat the shit out of people. Said, I'm
directing Secretary of War hag Seth to provide all necessary
troops to protect war ravaged Portland and any of our
ice facilities under siege from attack by Antifa and other
domestic terrorists. I am also authorizing full force if necessary,
(35:13):
which people were like, what the fuck does that mean?
They did not provide additional comment when reached by seeing
M for clarification by full force.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
It's rhetorical, but I think what we all know is
that he's hoping that these kinds of confrontations lead to
something that allows him to declare martial law. Like, that's
the point of all this. How can I incite something?
Speaker 2 (35:39):
And the site back in Portland, we know that, Like,
there's the people.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
Yeah, And the things I saw was that they just
had donuts on fishing poles, so when the cops are
running at them, it looked like they were fishing for
cops and donuts. But yeah, I mean this is you know,
we've seen We've fucking seen this many times now, at
least three times.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Trump good this blazers at aganda, they did it. Yeah.
Since twenty twenty, he's referred to it as a hell hole,
a mess. Twenty twenty five, his inaugural address, he talked
he called Portland a place where they killed people and
destroy the city.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
No, I've been there, Yeah many times. It's fine, you know. Yeah,
they got food trucks. They got good food trucks. They
do have food trucks. They got this one tie place
that's like a taype like Thai food and barbecue fusion
place with the best like smoked brisket curry I've ever
had in my fucking life.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
They fucking love the Blazers there, man, I love it.
Turns out they love turns out the Pacific Northwest loves
their teams. Loves their teams.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
Man, No, Jake, Man, you should you should really be
pulling up there like fucking John Snow or some ship.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I mean, just like, you know what the.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Fuck I am, bro Like, give me, give me a
fucking let me have a free book from Powell's bookstore.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
Yeah, this show disappears, you will find Miles and I
on Patreon, and you will find my ass in Portland.
Being like, I could coach the Blazers. I don't know,
the kid just because you get some one in your family,
that doesn't mean you can't, but but I could. I
feel like you, like, wouldn't that be sick? Have you
guys seen Eddie like, yeah, most of my pitches start
(37:22):
with have you guys seen Eddie? Yeah? I think did
he get fired last week? No? The sorry the Whoopie
Goldberg sports comedy Eddie. The plan would call two hundred
members of the Oregon National Guard into federal service. Uh
for a sixty day deployment. Yeah, there, and Morgan suing them, yeah,
and or the state of Oregon is suing the Trump
(37:45):
administration because there's absolutely no reason for this.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
I mean, there's just all the other terrible things that
the administration is doing that you know, again, they're flooding
the zone in so many ways physically meta Forlee news.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
Wise, just to be like, well, what's the.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Bad thing again that he did that, he got caught
doing that, he's in the process of denying, and also
in the process of Yeah, it's it's a lot.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
It's a lot, and I just think a lot.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
I every time this happens, I'm always like, I feel
so sorry for everybody who like lives in their city
peacefully and you have to be thrown into the Your
place is fucked and I have to save you. Bullshit
act that's just gonna disrupt your town. That's gonna fucking
have a chilling effect on people going outside and just
living normally because.
Speaker 2 (38:35):
It fucking sucks. Recreate the pandemic with fascism, all right.
Speaking of that, he it's only been a week since
he seemed to like accidentally tweet a text to Pambondi
urging her to use the DOJ to go after his enemies,
including James Comy. He's specifically named Comy, and now Comy
(38:57):
has been indicted on criminal charges and faces up five
years in prison for uh their their claiming he lied
under oath, misled Congress by claiming he had not authorized
anyone else to be an anonymous source in news reporting
about an FBI investigation.
Speaker 1 (39:14):
And sounds iron clad. Man, these political prosecutions are usually
the usually so iron clad that it's they got him
dead to rights.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
He's dumb, but they may have been them. Yeah yeah,
he that the said tweet might have actually saved Comy's ass.
One legal expert pointed out that there's a reason that
prosecutors traditionally speak about cases soberly and only in court
(39:44):
or through court filings, and don't don't like spike the
football and be like, you got to go after this guy.
I hate him and I'm the president go after him. Yeah, uh,
that's yeah, that's if if it seems like you're on
his enemy and that's why you're being prosecuted, that is
a pretty strong built in defense your honor. This is
(40:07):
a this is a political fucking hatchet job against me.
Exhibit A.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
He's pressuring the fucking attorney general to them.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
Yeah, it wasn't a text, it was a truth post,
which he then just my TrooLS down right, Yeah, exactly right.
Speaker 1 (40:25):
And the other thing too, is like this whole thing,
all of their political prosecutions they've completely fucked up on
their own, like Tulsi Gabbard is trying to go after uh,
which fucking John Brennan of the CIA, but like in
the process was like taking away people's security clearances, which
actually make it harder for prosecutors to get testimony from
(40:47):
them when they have no security clearance anymore. Like they're
self owning in these dumb ways because they are just
so Again, all these people are just in positions to
please whatever Trump's desire is, regardless of like how mechanically
it has to work, right, because you you'd imagine for
like any normal, any normal authoritarian regime would have already
(41:09):
completely captured the judicial system where evidence is meaningless because
all you have to do is be like you're on trial,
You're guilty, done, deal next, Yeah, you st have to
go through the process of going to a grand jury
and securing these indictments. And even this fucking nube US
attorney Lindsay Halligan, who was on fucking Woke Watch at
(41:30):
the Smithsonian prior to this, like she could there are
a few there was one charge at the grand jury
was like nah, come on now, like, yeah, we're not
gonna give you everything here, like you got to.
Speaker 2 (41:39):
Have some evidence. Yeah. I mean, there's a political strategy
called engineered in competence where you bring in people who
have no no business being in the position that you're
appointing them to, and that makes them super loyal and
willing to do whatever the fuck you tell them to.
But you know, Ti your earlier point about like Tulca Gabbard,
(42:02):
everybody who he has appointed to like these major positions,
seems to be in over their head, you know, but
this isn't like that leads too incompetence.
Speaker 1 (42:12):
Incompetence Yeah, yeah, like see you bringing me on the
show that's engineered incompetence.
Speaker 2 (42:17):
That's right, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (42:19):
And I have nowhere to go now, yeah, and I'll
say whatever, you know, I don't even like I don't
even like basketball or arsenal.
Speaker 2 (42:25):
Jack just created this character for me to do on Mike.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
But like, yeah, to your point, with these other people,
they're incompetent, but also have dunning Krueger to the to
the max where.
Speaker 2 (42:35):
They're right, I'm actually very competent. I'm actually the best
person for this job. So they're also not like, well,
I owe it to him.
Speaker 1 (42:42):
They're like, yeah, goddamn right, I'm here, that's right, and
I suck whoops.
Speaker 2 (42:47):
Oh. She is a thirty six year old former White
House aide. We've talked about her before because she is
the one who's like the Smithsonian shouldn't mention slavery. It's
like too much of a bummer. And before this, she
was a Florida insurance lawyer. Great, no prosecutorial experience whatsoever. Yep,
(43:07):
and that's going.
Speaker 1 (43:08):
To be great when you're prosecuting the former head of
the FBI, who's gonna have lawyers on his side that
are like actual fucking lawyers.
Speaker 2 (43:17):
And the other thing is like the whole everything.
Speaker 1 (43:21):
I've read about this process is like at the DOJ,
no one wanted to sign on to this prosecution because
they're like, this is.
Speaker 2 (43:29):
Fucking flimsy man, Like, I'm not gonna go up there.
Speaker 1 (43:32):
And because you know, even in the evidence that Halligan
is presenting to a grand jury, there's like not one
there's not even a quote from James Comy that they're like,
and that's the lie that he said that we're getting
him on, right, they're all just talking around the events
to then be like and he lied, rather than being like,
these are the words that he uttered of Congress that
(43:56):
now amount to this kind of lie that we're saying
that we're trying to prosecute on. It's just very and
like and credit to her. She's only in this position
because she was the first sikophant to show up at
Mar A Lago when the Feds raided looking for the documents.
Speaker 2 (44:10):
And that's how it's done. That's why she's at Trump's side. Baby,
All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be
right back. And we're back. We're back. You know, there's
(44:31):
been a lot of questions of like, what is violence
left wing? Is it right? Wing they are ignoring like
all these mass shooting of it. You know, there there
were again two mass shootings over the weekend. A man
in Michigan probably I mean to be honest, Yeah, like
that like broke through the news cycle. A guy in
(44:53):
Michigan drove his car into a LDS church and open
fire and set fire to the building. And then in
North Carolina, another man open fire on an outdoor restaurant
and music venue, killing three and wounding five. Yeah, and
again they're all like it left or is it right?
Speaker 1 (45:09):
It seems like the guy in Michigan seem to have
a lot of trumpy stuff going on according to their
social media posts and like.
Speaker 2 (45:16):
But the scorekeeping of it's like.
Speaker 1 (45:18):
Left right binary is really it's counterproductive because, like, let's
face it, ninety nine percent of people in general, regardless
of how backwards their beliefs are, aren't aren't looking to
go out and kill a bunch of people, right, you
know what I mean? Like, there's a certain profile you
have to fit to be like and that's why I'm
(45:39):
taking lives now. And by doing this left wing or
right wing thing, you completely conveniently leave out the discussion
of whether or not we're having simultaneous mental health and
gun accessibility crises.
Speaker 2 (45:52):
Yeah, Yeah, they don't seem to want to talk about that,
and like really nobody seems to want to talk about
the gun availability crises. No. And also, these two guys
were for veterans. Yeah, that's a whole other thing.
Speaker 1 (46:04):
We read story after story about the lack of support
veterans get and what being in combat does to your
mental health, the trauma that's inflicted on them, and then
you have no support on the other side, and then
you you're left to be exposed to a bunch of algorithms. Yeah,
they're gonna give you fucking weird ass like worldviews and
takes on on you know, the stakes of our fucking society.
Speaker 2 (46:27):
Yeah, it's fucking all bad news. Yeah, so many of
the problems that it's just like, well, they defunded, they
started defunding mental health care, they closed all the hospitals,
they you know, like that.
Speaker 1 (46:38):
And you see all the arguments too, where they're.
Speaker 2 (46:40):
Like, I thought, that's you say, it's a right wing pride,
it's actually a mental health problem.
Speaker 1 (46:46):
Then fucking do something about it, because first of all,
just throwing everyone in jail because they're they voted for Obama.
Speaker 2 (46:54):
Isn't a fucking solution, right, It's not.
Speaker 1 (46:57):
People don't go out there and they're not like stabbing
people with an Obama lawn sign, right, Yeah. Just it's
just like, yeah, it's it's just it's sad though too,
how like sort of normal it becomes.
Speaker 2 (47:10):
Yeah, it's immediately like a thing of like, oh god,
who who did this one? And how are they going
to weaponize this one?
Speaker 1 (47:17):
And that's that's what's fucked up, is like we're we
had like it's always being talked about through this left wing,
right wing prism because I get obviously like what the rhetorically,
what the what comes out of the right wing news
and things like that, is there fomenting violence?
Speaker 2 (47:31):
Right?
Speaker 1 (47:32):
But yeah, that also it we lose the fact that
we're like, you're focused on that because the Republicans are
trying to use any fucking rationalization to completely close up
shop on people's personal liberties under the guise of well.
Speaker 2 (47:51):
This is left wing or you know, like this is
political violence. Right all right, Uh, finally we do on
this weekend trending, like to take a look at the
weekend box office. This was the weekend that one battle
after another, the new Paul Thomas Anderson movie dropped, being
hailed as a masterpiece by a lot of critics. I'm
(48:12):
certainly excited to see it, but did not have a
chance because I was too busy debating my seven year
old on the merits of being forty five feet So
it took him to fucking one battle after another. I know, like,
let's put a pin in this. You want to see
a relationship, a parental relationship. Here we go. It has
a ninety six on Rotten Tomatoes, which doesn't really mean anything,
(48:33):
but it does have a ninety five on Metacritic, which
is kind of unprecedentedly strong Metacritic score. And so it
made twenty two million in North America during its first weekend,
which you know would be good for Like, that's the
most Paul Thomas Anderson movie I think has made. But
(48:55):
it cost one hundred and thirty million dollars to produce
and another seventy million to market. And so people are saying, well, actually,
so Variety isn't saying it's a bomb because it wasn't
made by Ryan Coogler. So they're just like, I know,
this one might have legs. They were just holding out all,
(49:19):
it seemed to be hoping against hope that Sinners was
going to be a bomb. Even after like the first
two weeks, it was like, it's getting stronger as it goes.
This is what what's this now? Yeah, but it did
receive so one battle after another, did receive an A
Cinema score with audiences who saw it, which should be
a good sign for you know, longevity continuing to do well.
(49:44):
It's going to be an Awards contender, so a lot
of people are gonna probably see it over the next
several months. You'd think it is a movie about fascism,
you know, it did. It did really like comparatively, it
did really well overseas, and I wonder if, like America
(50:06):
might not be the best place to make a movie
that is telling some hard, harsh truths about America and fascism,
Like we might.
Speaker 1 (50:14):
Even with Leonardo DiCaprio right in ith in it, it
might take uniquely ill suited to understand our own situation.
Speaker 2 (50:25):
At the moment. I totally get that.
Speaker 1 (50:26):
I mean, like it's just from I was talking to
Joelle Monique, you know, Yeah, she's every film film critic, Yeah,
and I was. I saw her over the weekend and
I was asking her about it, and she like, she
was like, do you want me to tell you a
little bit about the movie? And I'm like no, I'm
like I told her and I said, please leave some
meat on the bone for me. But you just said
(50:47):
and I'm not going to spoil it, but like the
opening scene is just something that will immediately resonate with
American people, Like it's not it's just something that feels
like that's happening in America right now, Like and yeah,
I'm just gonna say that. I I think people probably don't.
It's probably very uncomfortable right now because you have a
(51:09):
ton of people who are either completely exhausted at the
dawn of fascism, right and then you have a bunch
of people who are completely exhausted trying to hope away
that we're not at the dawn of it. Sure, and
so so like it's like, yeah, I mean.
Speaker 2 (51:27):
I'm like, I'll go see it, Like I fuck it,
I want to. I want to see this.
Speaker 1 (51:31):
But I totally get to how some people have been
like I don't know, like what's You tell them what
it's about, and they're like, Okay, maybe I'll go see that.
Speaker 2 (51:40):
Movie where the killer doll kills those people or something. Yeah,
that move, the conjuring, the final whatever is doing really well. Yeah,
sometimes things resonate too much with people, like when a
cartoon cat is holding a tuning fork and like the
tuning fork makes them start shit. I'm the resonant frequency. Yeah.
(52:04):
But also, you know, Gabby's Dollhouse underperformed, and I think
also a film about fascism that yeah, you know, might
have been too real for audiences. Big news for a
Cat Video Fest twenty twenty five. It made six thousand
dollars on five screens and has now made over one
million dollars. I don't know, it's you're fucking amazing. This
(52:27):
is just a highlight reel of the best cat videos
of twenty twenty five. Basically that is.
Speaker 1 (52:34):
You know, in a way great, you know, do something
with these screens that are going to bring people together.
Made a million dollars just slapping together a highlight tape
of cat videos.
Speaker 2 (52:46):
Artistically assembling a highlight reel. Okay achievement for the franchise
launched in twenty sixteen by filmmaker Will Braden, who apparently
does a darn good job curating the best cat videos
from across global social media.
Speaker 1 (52:59):
And this guy is putting I'm curious what the percentage is,
but like money does go to animal shelters?
Speaker 2 (53:05):
Yeah, I would have. I'm like, well, come on now,
keep all that fucking money, all these fucking do gooders
out here making me.
Speaker 1 (53:12):
You're the one out here just getting people on social
media to sign some like flimsy release.
Speaker 2 (53:16):
You're probably not compensating them for right they're but guess
what your clip will be in Catfest? And I will
make you know, I'll make a little bit of money too,
But hey, do it? Would you?
Speaker 1 (53:26):
Is there anything you'd go to as something? Would you
go to bird Fest? You like bird watching? If someone's like, dude,
here's an hour of the best bird fit videos of
the year, Yeah, I would do that.
Speaker 2 (53:35):
I would absolutely do that. Birds fucking rule. They're they're interesting.
They have like weird, weird behaviors. There's probably like some
gnarly ones, like I'm sure Catfest doesn't have a ton
of like cats killing, yeah, prey, but like birds are. Man,
It's I think it's like it's kind of a great
(53:55):
idea because you're basically taking something that would be a
YouTube video that would get millions of views, just like
Millie Bleached in the movie were put in a theater
really quick. Yeah yeah, and.
Speaker 1 (54:06):
Get a little bit of money because like I'm just
goin gonna like what would I watch? And I'm in
my mind, I'm naming fucking YouTube videos like I would
be like the sickest basketball crossovers of twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (54:14):
Five, crossover Fest twenty twenty five, like this, people get
the Sign of the Cross baby, Yeah, yeah, you know
what I mean. Last Rites immediately runs onto the court.
All right, those are some of the things that are
trending on this Monday, September twenty ninth. We are back
(54:35):
tomorrow with a whole last episode of the show. Until then,
be kind to each other, be kind to yourselves, get
your vaccines while you still can't get your blue shots.
