Speaker 2 (00:51):
I told you that in confidence, but he posted it
on freak.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
But glad to making you laugh.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
I think that's not just in the back. I kind
of like that as a it's like a studio audience. Yeah, yeah,
right right, It's like it was sort of like the
laugh Kevin you Banks used to do on the Tonight
Show band.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yes, yes, until they took his mic away. They took
did they take Kevin you Banks Michael ow No, just
like just spreading rumors that Jay Leno would be like,
we can't.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
I believe it too.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
I believe I believe it. We can't give it them
the only one. Maybe maybe he's told me you can't
have a microphones, so we took it away.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
All right, Mavis. Oh wow, what a fucking reference. That's
make white wex locks. Thank you Craigslist. He has a
new Subaru that he was trying to keep on the low,
but he can't because he posted about it, and you
were also talking about on this show. I believe to
last time you were here because you got a good
deal though, right, you prastically made your do a great deal.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Gret got a great deal.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I did passively over a period because I thought my
old lease was done six months ago. So I've been
working on this car for a half a year.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
So, uh, you know you're getting Oh you were grinding
people down there.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
I've been.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
I was grinding people down in a obsessively mentally unhealthy
way where I couldn't stop thinking about cars. My wife
and I had an inside bit where she'd be like, hey, like,
what are you doing right now? And then I would
just send her like a like a stock photo of
a super just like you know where I'm at, Yeah,
you know where my head?
Speaker 1 (02:32):
The color you wanted? Was that the color you wanted?
Speaker 2 (02:34):
I only wanted it in that color? Yeah, so they
like that color called oh h, I don't like to
use industry terms on here, but an alpine green is
uh what the color is?
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Yes, so it's the.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Sun looks a little pistachious, I believe on there so
when I'm Britney Carney, very funny comedian says, it looks
like a pistachio cream, which I'll push back on until
the day I die in that car.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
You're gonna be buried in that car.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
It does look like pistache Wait where did you post this? Am?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
I completely Instagram dot com? So that's Instagram dot com.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Anyway, that's not what's trending, although it is an our
parts and minds. It's trending on Uh what's that guy's name?
Al Gore's Internet first one Barb Trendheimer too is because
again people think this is so stupid. People are predicting
(03:31):
that are not predicting. There is I think a whole
try from the studios that there could be a potential
Barbinheimer esque, you know, uh, synergistic opportunity here between two
films being released that'll bring everybody to the box office,
with the release of Gladiator two and the first part
(03:54):
of Wicked right before Thanksgiving. I don't know who thinks
this could ever, This is not going to work. I
don't even think what is even the Venn diagram. There's
no overlap between the Gladiator two crowd and the Wicked crowd.
I know. I think it's movies that people are gonna
(04:17):
do on their own.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yeah, yeah, I know people who would go to war
for their Broadway shows.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
So maybe that's what it is. You know, Like, I don't.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Let's see what are they gonna do? Is there some
people say Glicked, Wikiator, Wicked Dator. I don't know, man,
I don't know. I'm glad that someone from my alma mater, UCLA,
although their actions towards student protests are fucking abysmal and atrocious,
(04:51):
someone from the School of Theater, Film and TV said,
I'm not fully sold on this being Barbandheimer two point zero.
That's all you need to say.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
It's all you need to say.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
It quoted, it's good when studio is released big titles simultaneously.
I do think that they feed off of each other
that level of excitement. I think all of those things
work in both of these films. I just don't think
it's gonna be the lightning in a bottle that Barbenheimer was.
It's just not you have a like it's Chris Nolan
is already gonna get people being like, oh shit, well
a fucking the atomic bomb. And then Barbie is just
(05:21):
so culturally ubiquitous. Wicked is not does not have the
cultural ubiquity of Barbie. Gladiator too definitely a thing, m hm.
But and even me, like, I'm like, I don't know
if I'm gonna go see it like right away, but
I do want to see it because that guy got
eight by a shark somehow in the coliseum.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
They can't let those things out in the colise That's
why the Colosseum was so dangerous. I think if you're
thinking about like like movies to see or like cultural
what like just these dumb like dude things where Hitler
Trump's Gladiate like Trump's Rome, you know what I mean,
we go this yep, like people like there's so much
(06:03):
Hitler shit, like bad Hitler.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Yeah, like people just signed up Hitler movies, you know
what I mean. So I don't know. I think like
if I had to like Engineer one, it would have
to be something like space Jam, but like a better version,
like something we're like, suddenly an entire generation.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Goes, huh yeah, because that's what Barbie did. Everyone go
huh Barbie. And space Jam wasn't a toy. It would
be if space Jam was a toy. Also, you know,
like yeah, like.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
If there was somehow like an a twenty four film
version of like Ferbie along with yeah, like yeah, a
Tickle Me Elmo a twenty four film, and then I'm
trying to like, what's like an action property that we
could pair that with.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Also, I do need to say, I do realize that
America did not drop the h bomb on Germany during
World War two. It was a World War II reference
more than a Hitler. It was a hydrogen bomb either,
but no now, and but who who can keep track
of those things? Joe Rogan naming his comedy clubs after
those bombs. But I would say, yeah, the rooms in
his comedy club is little Boy and Fat Man.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Oh my god, what a fucking loser.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
That's not a bit, but I'm laughing as if. But
that's not a.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Fil Yeah, no, I mean it's absurd that it's crazy.
Holy shit.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Wow, yeah, I would say it's unecessary. But what is
a culture? You're right, like, what is like?
Speaker 1 (07:30):
It would have to be like Ferbie's and pizza somehow, yeah,
I mean, ye, Herbie right. I don't know the sport
of baseball, you know, yeah, something exactly. The World Cup
and Coca Cola, I don't know. Actually they're already a sponsor.
I don't know. It's all fucked up. Guys, just don't
even try. Because the reason Barbenheimer worked the first time
(07:50):
because it was organic and people just said that ship
and that's how it happened. Stop forcing it, but nice try.
Some bad news in the world of entertainment and are
revelation that I completely shocked me. So red Box one
of the favorite ways to rent a DVD. You know,
many years ago, I remember I was a big lover
of the Red Box. They are shutting down their business
(08:14):
due to my kruptcy, and they are laying off more
than a thousand employees and they're just basically just gonna, like,
I think, liquidate everything they got this is the thing.
So shout out to everybody who look if my condolences
for those who are you know, their absolute world has
been thrown an absolute tailspin because of this news. Here's
the thing I didn't know. The parent company for red
(08:37):
Box is Chicken Soup for the sole entertainment. How did
I miss this? This is like from the Jack Canfield
books of like nonsense advice. They also own Crackle. What
does that makes sense? That does make sense that I
can see. Do you think we're gonna get because you know,
(09:01):
red Box was stuck between They didn't have as much
of a rain as obviously a Blockbuster before it or
a Netflix after it.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
So Blockbusters people would.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Make Pilgrimage, pilgrim Ie, pilgrim Ie to them Pilgrimage and
there was even you know, like a documentary act, a
scripted TV show about the last Blockbuster. Yeah, and yeah,
I just feel like, you know, red Box though a
great it was a terrific bridge.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
I think it's something that we will appreciate long after
the fact of like, oh thank god we had like
a conciliatory. It's the Joe Biden of entertainment sources, and
they're like yeah, you know, it was kind of a
stop gap and it you know, it did its job
and uh you know, well enough. It wasn't perfect, but
it wasn't even good at times, but.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Acknowledging that the journey's over.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
And then it slowly faded away, right exactly or quickly
in this case.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Have you was the last time you ever use a
red box?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Yeah, I remember that. Did they come in little sleeves?
Because I think that's a thing I didn't like about it,
is that I enjoyed looking at like just opening up.
I don't know why I enjoyed this. As I'm saying
this right now, this doesn't sound interesting at all. Okay,
at least you had the cover like the DBD box
when you went to a Blockbuster, but there was just
(10:21):
these like sleeves, I think, yeah, right, like it made
it easier to lose for me. Yeah, I lost them
a lot, like I lost a lot of those DVDs.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
I remember, Jesus, did you.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Use them man a couple of times?
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Yeah, there was one right by the seven eleven iceed
to I live by, And that would always be like
because back before streaming, that was like shit, bro, there
was like it was Red Box and Chill. I'm like, what,
whatever the fuck is there? We're going to watch that
and maybe this will be a weird date.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
I remember we would as a family, like my family
would like it was part of a circle where we
would go get pizza, like pick up pizza and then
on the way home stop by or right box. But
you're right, like they did need to have the things
in stock. Isn't that funny? Is that sometimes you would
you could want a movie and then you just weren't able.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
To watch and you just were like, well, I guess
I can guess to watch this unnecessary roughness, necessary roughness. Rather,
the comedy film was Sindbad and Everybody all right on
next story, that's trending Samsung. So you may have seen
some videos of some wild demonstrations in South Korea where
(11:28):
unionized workers at Samsung Electronics. They're saying, yo, we are
on an indefinite strike. They announced this yesterday on Wednesday,
you know again, because workers strike to get higher pay,
additional benefits and things that are owed to them as
the people that you know, create the fucking wealth for
the c suite to you know, just do their parting
(11:49):
with thousands of members of the National Samsung Electronics Union
launched a temporary three day strike on Monday, but the
union said Wednesday that it was announcing an indefinite strike,
accusing the man management of being unwilling to negotiate. Samsung
is out here really trying to make sure that people
are just their fears are they said, quote, Samsung Electronics
(12:11):
will ensure no disruptions occur in the production lines. Okay,
the company remains committed to engaging in good faith negotiations
with the union. Union representatives say that they are not
engaging in good faith negotiations and they are still doing
shit to complicate things for workers, which guess what, I
believe that. But yeah, Samsung is a huge, huge It's
like one of the is it the biggest company in
(12:31):
South Korea? Anyway, They're massively out they have outsized importance
in South Korea. So good luck trying to not I
don't know, have your output be disrupted. But I don't
know how you do that when everybody is just packing
their shit up.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Yeah, that was supposed to be like good news, Like, oh,
it's supposed to make you feel better as a consumer.
It's like, wait a minute, why isn't the output going
to be like it should be interrupted?
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Part of me is also just yeah, like I don't
know someone who's like, oh thank god. It's like it's
not like you're if you want to buy something, it's
at the store. Yes, you know what I mean. It's
like you're like, well, was the production going to be
all disrupted by strikes? I was gonna buy a fan tomorrow.
It's already there. It's already there. It's already there.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
A couple months you may not be able to get
that fan, but by then it'll be fall.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Yeah, so you won't need it. Well, look, hot labor.
Everything continues to continues to move forward at a good click,
because yes, workers deserve their fair share. All right, let's
take a quick break and we'll be right back, and
(13:48):
we're back. A bit of good news slash bad vegas
bittersweet news. The IRS. They just announced that they've collected
one billion dollars in back taxes from quote high wealth
tax cheats. So this is the result of their recent
initiatives designed to go after what they describe as quote
(14:09):
high wealth individuals who have failed to pay their tax debts. Yes,
tax cheats, rich assholes who are dodging their tax bill
and yet no, they're doing everything they can to keep
their taxes low, which is again great story. Although people
who are critical of how the IRS moves have also
pointed out that quote nearly two thirds of audits initiated
(14:32):
in twenty twenty three targeted those making less than two
hundred thousand dollars. I don't think these are the people
that we're really talking about.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
That.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
IRS says that this campaign is focused on taxpayers with
more than a million dollars in income. Wow, more than
a million dollars in how how you do that? Not
even a million dollars and more than two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars in recognized two hundred and fifty thousand
dollars in tax debt? Ye, who are you?
Speaker 3 (15:00):
Who?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Is this the fucking money taken? But yeah, but it is.
It does need to be said that prior to this,
they were like going after people under two hundred thousand. Also,
because racism typically factors into things that are happening with
the United States government, the IRS also audits black people
quote up to four point seven times the rate of
non black tax payers, which they said they're going to
(15:22):
try and address that?
Speaker 3 (15:23):
Yeah, why would address that?
Speaker 1 (15:25):
What? Why? Why how did that even? Like where is
that like racist smokey room meeting where they're like, you
know who we got to really hassle are.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Black tax player?
Speaker 1 (15:34):
I mean I guess it doesn't even need to smoke
your room because white supremacy.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
It don't just be out on the front lawn. Yeah,
they don't even give a shit, like it's it's terrible.
And also this was like this is did it? This
was just the past year? Right, Like this is kind
of an early like returns on this policy where it's
why would you So if you're the irs, you probably
want to be able to point to this stat that like,
oh hey like tax dodgers. No one likes a person
(15:58):
who doubt dodges tax. We took a billion dollars from
that sounds so good yee, Like if if a new
you know, regime comes in and rolls that back, because
I think I saw Elizabeth Warren was making videos about
this today, you know, like which is Liz?
Speaker 3 (16:13):
I you know, shout out to Liz.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
But it's it is one of these things where it's like, oh, no,
everybody benefits if you take this money from these tax cheaters,
these billionaires. Why are you chasing after like these the
little person you know? And your ears noting wild because
it's so evil.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Recent statistics say that it's the top one percent is
underpaying by around one hundred and sixty billion a year.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Good So one one hundred and sixtyeth you know.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
What I mean. Yeah, yeah, Like that's where it's always like, no,
we did a good thing. It's like, hold on, man,
you guys are there's there's estimates out there off of
your own data that says there's one hundred and sixty
billion dollar fucking hole missing from people dodging their taxes.
But again, that's how they can get people to be like,
oh okay. That's why I say bittersweet, because it's like, yeah,
billion dollars they could be getting maybe at least maybe
(17:02):
I don't know, try and get a hundred and then
they can really pat each other on the back. But
or four yeah, or or even get four yeah. It's
such a botic for yeah, now, Blake, we were making
jokes before we came on here about this happen right, Yeah,
a story about pebbling, And I didn't know what pebbling
is because there's a High. There's a headline that says,
(17:25):
psychologists explain pebbling and I was like, okay, a wholesome
dating trend on the rise, and I'm like, what is
going on? So apparently this is a reference to the
gentu penguin where they you know, like they're they're part
of their mating ritual. First of all, there they have
a mate for life and they form like just like
sort of you know, the notebook esque connections with their partners.
(17:47):
But part of this is during the breeding season, the
male penguin looks for the smoothest, most perfect pebble and
presents that to the desired mate as of being like, hey,
I fuck with you. Here is you pebble. If she accepts,
then that is the foundation of their nest. And this
is from the Forbes article quote symbolized the beginning of
their life together. And I was like, well, what the
(18:09):
f oh okay.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
I guess that's just the cutest thing I've ever heard. Okay, yeah, wow, what.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Do we do that? But apparently they're saying that humans
are also doing this, like, but we are doing it
in terms of it's like these smaller gestures that like
sending memes videos, we like, it's not these are these
are our little ways to let someone know that we're
thinking of them. And I guess they say, like it's
just like it's an act of care. Part of me
(18:36):
is like is it? Because sometimes I'm annoying the fuck
out of her majesty with being like, yo, did you
that fucking video? Doesn't you? And she's like, I don't
need to see more like Kendrick Lamar music video breakdowns.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
I'm like, all right, it's just this just being nice?
Like what the fuck is this? It's like, hey, oh yeah,
there's a term.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
It's when you tell someone that you love you love them,
you know, it's called leafing. It's called leafing. It's like,
what are you even saying? Like, just isn't this how
people are supposed to interact, where you're supposed to be like, hey,
like here's something nice, Like why do we need to
I don't know. I don't know if I'm on the
wrong side of this or not.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
It it feels like this this weird trend of articles
we taught. We see this a lot on the show,
where people are just merely read like describing something that
we all know to be true, but like giving it
more of like a succinct thing, whether like versus like
being like alienated from your labor. It's like it's called
resenteeism or quiet quitting or write these like very normal
(19:31):
things in life, but trying to kind of fit them
into like these new slangy buzzwords. So like when they
go on, it's like it can be all kinds of ways,
like sharing music with someone, gift giving handwritten notes. I'm like,
this is acts of service. These are love languages.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
I'm gonna be honest, this is the first time I've
ever felt and seen Yes, yes, normally it's like.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Knows crofton, didn't we recently? You're okay? Well after that,
Oh I saw I saw christ and now person, Yeah
it was great. Weird, girl's very sweet to go to
that show. You just feel like the earth has been
taken from under your feet because you're like this was
just called affection kindness or like not affection, but kindness,
gestures of kinds, like.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Oh, we're oxygen ing. It's like, oh, it's because you're breathing.
Isn't this just something like I don't understand?
Speaker 1 (20:21):
So you not the dating trend?
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Yeah, are there couples that just sit in silence and
never meet each other. Like isn't that just a person
on the street, Like right.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Yeah, someone just like there's a tweet that they quoted
in this Forbes Arcle said that friend who sometimes sends
too many memes, links and videos. They're out there braving
the most unwell digital spaces, risking their mental health to
hunt and gather for your amusement. Cherish them. No, I
have friends like this. They're just on an infinite TikTok
scroll and they just habitually just put the send function
(20:52):
on the video.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
They like that is I do you have people who
do that where they just send you video after not
even with a comment, just like they just send videos.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Oh yeah all the time. And I'm not on social
media all the time. So every now and then they're like, yo,
to see that video and I'm like, oh, I'm sorry, dude,
I have not I have not checked my inbox or whatever.
And I look and it's like there's like forty two
and like which one it's like the one though, was
the farting one?
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Yeah, which.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
There's sixteen farting ones. The one that it was like
the taco bell, like after you have taco bell, like
sort of like that was a theme of like Okay, well.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
That's that was a good one. That was a good one.
But that was good one. It was that was a
good one.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
No, I've I'm such a people pleaser that I used
to watch every single one and feel a need to
give them an original thought, you know, like whenever someone
would send this to me and it's Beau, I've been
pebbled to death. It's not pebbling, it's stoning. I've been
stoned to Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Yeah, these fucking videos pebbled to death in the public square,
in the public Yeah. I mean it's funny, like I'm
I have my people person my people pleasing tendencies too,
But it's funny like I also have these like weird
limits where sometimes like I'm like, dude, I what the
fuck do you want to do a lot of shit?
Like you fucking keep up with all the like I got,
I got, I got other things I gotta do, yes first.
(22:06):
It's like other times someone will be like, hey, you
want to go to this restaurant. In my mind, I'm
like hell no, and I'm like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
let's do that.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
That's like at least how mind comes out a lot
of the time, just not pushing back when someone makes
a suggestion for something to do.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
That's really funny, at least with a restaurant suggestion, they
researched a restaurant and then there was some critical thought
involved some where, just when you shoot off a video.
It's so, this is a minute and a half of
my time. I stopped responding. This's the first time I've
ever like set a boundary in this way. I just
don't respond to it anymore unless someone says, hey, this
(22:43):
is why I think you would like this, and it's like, oh, okay, cool,
Now there's some effort being put in for a for
a conversation back and wth.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
I'm really curious who even said this is called pebbling.
That's That's what I'm interested in. How did we get
to us describing this? Was like in this one part
they're talking about sharing music and it's basically what we
did when we were burning custom CDs for people like yo,
I'll throw all this shit on a CD. This is
for you. This is a mixtape I made for you,
(23:11):
Like we've been doing this so and like the pebbling,
I guess maybe just to give a bit more texture
about like this is this is this is actually you
showing that you really deeply care about someone. And maybe
I'm like, I don't know, I'm just like hooking up
the front of the homies with.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Like the new mixtape.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
But I guess, yeah, Pebbler, I think you're a serial pebbler,
and as a as a fellow pebbler, I think you
nailed it where it's it's just adding a term to
something that doesn't need a term, and honestly, I think
it does it a disservice. We're calling it pebbling. It's like, oh,
these penguins do it with pebble.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
Thoughtful.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
I don't think it does the full justice of you're
being thoughtful. You're being thoughtful.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
That's it. You're a thoughtful.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Friend, I would describe. I try to be as thoughtful
as possible. I like to keep my ear open when
people say that they like something, and then I can
connect the dots and maybe find a gift or you know,
just a movie whatever. But yeah, we're just being thoughtful, man.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Just being thoughtful, not pebbling, that's all.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
That's all.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
That's all.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
We're not subbling. Okay, sorry, not doing it. I'm gonna
be thoughtful. Oh you wanted a pebbler, Well guess what
all you get is a thoughtful human. Are you okay
with that? I'm not a penguin or Gen two. I'm
sorry if I'm mispronouncing that or hen to Look, I'm
a I'm a flesh and blood dude. Man. Now you're
burning CDs.

I told you that in confidence, but he posted it
on freak.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
But glad to making you laugh.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
I think that's not just in the back. I kind
of like that as a it's like a studio audience. Yeah, yeah,
right right, It's like it was sort of like the
laugh Kevin you Banks used to do on the Tonight
Show band.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yes, yes, until they took his mic away. They took
did they take Kevin you Banks Michael ow No, just
like just spreading rumors that Jay Leno would be like,
we can't.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
I believe it too.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
I believe I believe it. We can't give it them
the only one. Maybe maybe he's told me you can't
have a microphones, so we took it away.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
All right, Mavis. Oh wow, what a fucking reference. That's
make white wex locks. Thank you Craigslist. He has a
new Subaru that he was trying to keep on the low,
but he can't because he posted about it, and you
were also talking about on this show. I believe to
last time you were here because you got a good
deal though, right, you prastically made your do a great deal.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Gret got a great deal.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I did passively over a period because I thought my
old lease was done six months ago. So I've been
working on this car for a half a year.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
So, uh, you know you're getting Oh you were grinding
people down there.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
I've been.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
I was grinding people down in a obsessively mentally unhealthy
way where I couldn't stop thinking about cars. My wife
and I had an inside bit where she'd be like, hey, like,
what are you doing right now? And then I would
just send her like a like a stock photo of
a super just like you know where I'm at, Yeah,
you know where my head?
Speaker 1 (02:32):
The color you wanted? Was that the color you wanted?
Speaker 2 (02:34):
I only wanted it in that color? Yeah, so they
like that color called oh h, I don't like to
use industry terms on here, but an alpine green is
uh what the color is?
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Yes, so it's the.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Sun looks a little pistachious, I believe on there so
when I'm Britney Carney, very funny comedian says, it looks
like a pistachio cream, which I'll push back on until
the day I die in that car.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
You're gonna be buried in that car.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
It does look like pistache Wait where did you post this? Am?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
I completely Instagram dot com? So that's Instagram dot com.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Anyway, that's not what's trending, although it is an our
parts and minds. It's trending on Uh what's that guy's name?
Al Gore's Internet first one Barb Trendheimer too is because
again people think this is so stupid. People are predicting
(03:31):
that are not predicting. There is I think a whole
try from the studios that there could be a potential
Barbinheimer esque, you know, uh, synergistic opportunity here between two
films being released that'll bring everybody to the box office,
with the release of Gladiator two and the first part
(03:54):
of Wicked right before Thanksgiving. I don't know who thinks
this could ever, This is not going to work. I
don't even think what is even the Venn diagram. There's
no overlap between the Gladiator two crowd and the Wicked crowd.
I know. I think it's movies that people are gonna
(04:17):
do on their own.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yeah, yeah, I know people who would go to war
for their Broadway shows.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
So maybe that's what it is. You know, Like, I don't.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Let's see what are they gonna do? Is there some
people say Glicked, Wikiator, Wicked Dator. I don't know, man,
I don't know. I'm glad that someone from my alma mater, UCLA,
although their actions towards student protests are fucking abysmal and atrocious,
(04:51):
someone from the School of Theater, Film and TV said,
I'm not fully sold on this being Barbandheimer two point zero.
That's all you need to say.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
It's all you need to say.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
It quoted, it's good when studio is released big titles simultaneously.
I do think that they feed off of each other
that level of excitement. I think all of those things
work in both of these films. I just don't think
it's gonna be the lightning in a bottle that Barbenheimer was.
It's just not you have a like it's Chris Nolan
is already gonna get people being like, oh shit, well
a fucking the atomic bomb. And then Barbie is just
(05:21):
so culturally ubiquitous. Wicked is not does not have the
cultural ubiquity of Barbie. Gladiator too definitely a thing, m hm.
But and even me, like, I'm like, I don't know
if I'm gonna go see it like right away, but
I do want to see it because that guy got
eight by a shark somehow in the coliseum.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
They can't let those things out in the colise That's
why the Colosseum was so dangerous. I think if you're
thinking about like like movies to see or like cultural
what like just these dumb like dude things where Hitler
Trump's Gladiate like Trump's Rome, you know what I mean,
we go this yep, like people like there's so much
(06:03):
Hitler shit, like bad Hitler.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Yeah, like people just signed up Hitler movies, you know
what I mean. So I don't know. I think like
if I had to like Engineer one, it would have
to be something like space Jam, but like a better version,
like something we're like, suddenly an entire generation.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Goes, huh yeah, because that's what Barbie did. Everyone go
huh Barbie. And space Jam wasn't a toy. It would
be if space Jam was a toy. Also, you know,
like yeah, like.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
If there was somehow like an a twenty four film
version of like Ferbie along with yeah, like yeah, a
Tickle Me Elmo a twenty four film, and then I'm
trying to like, what's like an action property that we
could pair that with.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Also, I do need to say, I do realize that
America did not drop the h bomb on Germany during
World War two. It was a World War II reference
more than a Hitler. It was a hydrogen bomb either,
but no now, and but who who can keep track
of those things? Joe Rogan naming his comedy clubs after
those bombs. But I would say, yeah, the rooms in
his comedy club is little Boy and Fat Man.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Oh my god, what a fucking loser.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
That's not a bit, but I'm laughing as if. But
that's not a.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Fil Yeah, no, I mean it's absurd that it's crazy.
Holy shit.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Wow, yeah, I would say it's unecessary. But what is
a culture? You're right, like, what is like?
Speaker 1 (07:30):
It would have to be like Ferbie's and pizza somehow, yeah,
I mean, ye, Herbie right. I don't know the sport
of baseball, you know, yeah, something exactly. The World Cup
and Coca Cola, I don't know. Actually they're already a sponsor.
I don't know. It's all fucked up. Guys, just don't
even try. Because the reason Barbenheimer worked the first time
(07:50):
because it was organic and people just said that ship
and that's how it happened. Stop forcing it, but nice try.
Some bad news in the world of entertainment and are
revelation that I completely shocked me. So red Box one
of the favorite ways to rent a DVD. You know,
many years ago, I remember I was a big lover
of the Red Box. They are shutting down their business
(08:14):
due to my kruptcy, and they are laying off more
than a thousand employees and they're just basically just gonna, like,
I think, liquidate everything they got this is the thing.
So shout out to everybody who look if my condolences
for those who are you know, their absolute world has
been thrown an absolute tailspin because of this news. Here's
the thing I didn't know. The parent company for red
(08:37):
Box is Chicken Soup for the sole entertainment. How did
I miss this? This is like from the Jack Canfield
books of like nonsense advice. They also own Crackle. What
does that makes sense? That does make sense that I
can see. Do you think we're gonna get because you know,
(09:01):
red Box was stuck between They didn't have as much
of a rain as obviously a Blockbuster before it or
a Netflix after it.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
So Blockbusters people would.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Make Pilgrimage, pilgrim Ie, pilgrim Ie to them Pilgrimage and
there was even you know, like a documentary act, a
scripted TV show about the last Blockbuster. Yeah, and yeah,
I just feel like, you know, red Box though a
great it was a terrific bridge.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
I think it's something that we will appreciate long after
the fact of like, oh thank god we had like
a conciliatory. It's the Joe Biden of entertainment sources, and
they're like yeah, you know, it was kind of a
stop gap and it you know, it did its job
and uh you know, well enough. It wasn't perfect, but
it wasn't even good at times, but.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Acknowledging that the journey's over.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
And then it slowly faded away, right exactly or quickly
in this case.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Have you was the last time you ever use a
red box?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Yeah, I remember that. Did they come in little sleeves?
Because I think that's a thing I didn't like about it,
is that I enjoyed looking at like just opening up.
I don't know why I enjoyed this. As I'm saying
this right now, this doesn't sound interesting at all. Okay,
at least you had the cover like the DBD box
when you went to a Blockbuster, but there was just
(10:21):
these like sleeves, I think, yeah, right, like it made
it easier to lose for me. Yeah, I lost them
a lot, like I lost a lot of those DVDs.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
I remember, Jesus, did you.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Use them man a couple of times?
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Yeah, there was one right by the seven eleven iceed
to I live by, And that would always be like
because back before streaming, that was like shit, bro, there
was like it was Red Box and Chill. I'm like, what,
whatever the fuck is there? We're going to watch that
and maybe this will be a weird date.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
I remember we would as a family, like my family
would like it was part of a circle where we
would go get pizza, like pick up pizza and then
on the way home stop by or right box. But
you're right, like they did need to have the things
in stock. Isn't that funny? Is that sometimes you would
you could want a movie and then you just weren't able.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
To watch and you just were like, well, I guess
I can guess to watch this unnecessary roughness, necessary roughness. Rather,
the comedy film was Sindbad and Everybody all right on
next story, that's trending Samsung. So you may have seen
some videos of some wild demonstrations in South Korea where
(11:28):
unionized workers at Samsung Electronics. They're saying, yo, we are
on an indefinite strike. They announced this yesterday on Wednesday,
you know again, because workers strike to get higher pay,
additional benefits and things that are owed to them as
the people that you know, create the fucking wealth for
the c suite to you know, just do their parting
(11:49):
with thousands of members of the National Samsung Electronics Union
launched a temporary three day strike on Monday, but the
union said Wednesday that it was announcing an indefinite strike,
accusing the man management of being unwilling to negotiate. Samsung
is out here really trying to make sure that people
are just their fears are they said, quote, Samsung Electronics
(12:11):
will ensure no disruptions occur in the production lines. Okay,
the company remains committed to engaging in good faith negotiations
with the union. Union representatives say that they are not
engaging in good faith negotiations and they are still doing
shit to complicate things for workers, which guess what, I
believe that. But yeah, Samsung is a huge, huge It's
like one of the is it the biggest company in
(12:31):
South Korea? Anyway, They're massively out they have outsized importance
in South Korea. So good luck trying to not I
don't know, have your output be disrupted. But I don't
know how you do that when everybody is just packing
their shit up.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Yeah, that was supposed to be like good news, Like, oh,
it's supposed to make you feel better as a consumer.
It's like, wait a minute, why isn't the output going
to be like it should be interrupted?
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Part of me is also just yeah, like I don't
know someone who's like, oh thank god. It's like it's
not like you're if you want to buy something, it's
at the store. Yes, you know what I mean. It's
like you're like, well, was the production going to be
all disrupted by strikes? I was gonna buy a fan tomorrow.
It's already there. It's already there. It's already there.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
A couple months you may not be able to get
that fan, but by then it'll be fall.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Yeah, so you won't need it. Well, look, hot labor.
Everything continues to continues to move forward at a good click,
because yes, workers deserve their fair share. All right, let's
take a quick break and we'll be right back, and
(13:48):
we're back. A bit of good news slash bad vegas
bittersweet news. The IRS. They just announced that they've collected
one billion dollars in back taxes from quote high wealth
tax cheats. So this is the result of their recent
initiatives designed to go after what they describe as quote
(14:09):
high wealth individuals who have failed to pay their tax debts. Yes,
tax cheats, rich assholes who are dodging their tax bill
and yet no, they're doing everything they can to keep
their taxes low, which is again great story. Although people
who are critical of how the IRS moves have also
pointed out that quote nearly two thirds of audits initiated
(14:32):
in twenty twenty three targeted those making less than two
hundred thousand dollars. I don't think these are the people
that we're really talking about.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
That.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
IRS says that this campaign is focused on taxpayers with
more than a million dollars in income. Wow, more than
a million dollars in how how you do that? Not
even a million dollars and more than two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars in recognized two hundred and fifty thousand
dollars in tax debt? Ye, who are you?
Speaker 3 (15:00):
Who?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Is this the fucking money taken? But yeah, but it is.
It does need to be said that prior to this,
they were like going after people under two hundred thousand. Also,
because racism typically factors into things that are happening with
the United States government, the IRS also audits black people
quote up to four point seven times the rate of
non black tax payers, which they said they're going to
(15:22):
try and address that?
Speaker 3 (15:23):
Yeah, why would address that?
Speaker 1 (15:25):
What? Why? Why how did that even? Like where is
that like racist smokey room meeting where they're like, you
know who we got to really hassle are.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Black tax player?
Speaker 1 (15:34):
I mean I guess it doesn't even need to smoke
your room because white supremacy.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
It don't just be out on the front lawn. Yeah,
they don't even give a shit, like it's it's terrible.
And also this was like this is did it? This
was just the past year? Right, Like this is kind
of an early like returns on this policy where it's
why would you So if you're the irs, you probably
want to be able to point to this stat that like,
oh hey like tax dodgers. No one likes a person
(15:58):
who doubt dodges tax. We took a billion dollars from
that sounds so good yee, Like if if a new
you know, regime comes in and rolls that back, because
I think I saw Elizabeth Warren was making videos about
this today, you know, like which is Liz?
Speaker 3 (16:13):
I you know, shout out to Liz.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
But it's it is one of these things where it's like, oh, no,
everybody benefits if you take this money from these tax cheaters,
these billionaires. Why are you chasing after like these the
little person you know? And your ears noting wild because
it's so evil.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Recent statistics say that it's the top one percent is
underpaying by around one hundred and sixty billion a year.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Good So one one hundred and sixtyeth you know.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
What I mean. Yeah, yeah, Like that's where it's always like, no,
we did a good thing. It's like, hold on, man,
you guys are there's there's estimates out there off of
your own data that says there's one hundred and sixty
billion dollar fucking hole missing from people dodging their taxes.
But again, that's how they can get people to be like,
oh okay. That's why I say bittersweet, because it's like, yeah,
billion dollars they could be getting maybe at least maybe
(17:02):
I don't know, try and get a hundred and then
they can really pat each other on the back. But
or four yeah, or or even get four yeah. It's
such a botic for yeah, now, Blake, we were making
jokes before we came on here about this happen right, Yeah,
a story about pebbling, And I didn't know what pebbling
is because there's a High. There's a headline that says,
(17:25):
psychologists explain pebbling and I was like, okay, a wholesome
dating trend on the rise, and I'm like, what is
going on? So apparently this is a reference to the
gentu penguin where they you know, like they're they're part
of their mating ritual. First of all, there they have
a mate for life and they form like just like
sort of you know, the notebook esque connections with their partners.
(17:47):
But part of this is during the breeding season, the
male penguin looks for the smoothest, most perfect pebble and
presents that to the desired mate as of being like, hey,
I fuck with you. Here is you pebble. If she accepts,
then that is the foundation of their nest. And this
is from the Forbes article quote symbolized the beginning of
their life together. And I was like, well, what the
(18:09):
f oh okay.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
I guess that's just the cutest thing I've ever heard. Okay, yeah, wow, what.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Do we do that? But apparently they're saying that humans
are also doing this, like, but we are doing it
in terms of it's like these smaller gestures that like
sending memes videos, we like, it's not these are these
are our little ways to let someone know that we're
thinking of them. And I guess they say, like it's
just like it's an act of care. Part of me
(18:36):
is like is it? Because sometimes I'm annoying the fuck
out of her majesty with being like, yo, did you
that fucking video? Doesn't you? And she's like, I don't
need to see more like Kendrick Lamar music video breakdowns.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
I'm like, all right, it's just this just being nice?
Like what the fuck is this? It's like, hey, oh yeah,
there's a term.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
It's when you tell someone that you love you love them,
you know, it's called leafing. It's called leafing. It's like,
what are you even saying? Like, just isn't this how
people are supposed to interact, where you're supposed to be like, hey,
like here's something nice, Like why do we need to
I don't know. I don't know if I'm on the
wrong side of this or not.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
It it feels like this this weird trend of articles
we taught. We see this a lot on the show,
where people are just merely read like describing something that
we all know to be true, but like giving it
more of like a succinct thing, whether like versus like
being like alienated from your labor. It's like it's called
resenteeism or quiet quitting or write these like very normal
(19:31):
things in life, but trying to kind of fit them
into like these new slangy buzzwords. So like when they
go on, it's like it can be all kinds of ways,
like sharing music with someone, gift giving handwritten notes. I'm like,
this is acts of service. These are love languages.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
I'm gonna be honest, this is the first time I've
ever felt and seen Yes, yes, normally it's like.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Knows crofton, didn't we recently? You're okay? Well after that,
Oh I saw I saw christ and now person, Yeah
it was great. Weird, girl's very sweet to go to
that show. You just feel like the earth has been
taken from under your feet because you're like this was
just called affection kindness or like not affection, but kindness,
gestures of kinds, like.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Oh, we're oxygen ing. It's like, oh, it's because you're breathing.
Isn't this just something like I don't understand?
Speaker 1 (20:21):
So you not the dating trend?
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Yeah, are there couples that just sit in silence and
never meet each other. Like isn't that just a person
on the street, Like right.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Yeah, someone just like there's a tweet that they quoted
in this Forbes Arcle said that friend who sometimes sends
too many memes, links and videos. They're out there braving
the most unwell digital spaces, risking their mental health to
hunt and gather for your amusement. Cherish them. No, I
have friends like this. They're just on an infinite TikTok
scroll and they just habitually just put the send function
(20:52):
on the video.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
They like that is I do you have people who
do that where they just send you video after not
even with a comment, just like they just send videos.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Oh yeah all the time. And I'm not on social
media all the time. So every now and then they're like, yo,
to see that video and I'm like, oh, I'm sorry, dude,
I have not I have not checked my inbox or whatever.
And I look and it's like there's like forty two
and like which one it's like the one though, was
the farting one?
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Yeah, which.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
There's sixteen farting ones. The one that it was like
the taco bell, like after you have taco bell, like
sort of like that was a theme of like Okay, well.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
That's that was a good one. That was a good one.
But that was good one. It was that was a
good one.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
No, I've I'm such a people pleaser that I used
to watch every single one and feel a need to
give them an original thought, you know, like whenever someone
would send this to me and it's Beau, I've been
pebbled to death. It's not pebbling, it's stoning. I've been
stoned to Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Yeah, these fucking videos pebbled to death in the public square,
in the public Yeah. I mean it's funny, like I'm
I have my people person my people pleasing tendencies too,
But it's funny like I also have these like weird
limits where sometimes like I'm like, dude, I what the
fuck do you want to do a lot of shit?
Like you fucking keep up with all the like I got,
I got, I got other things I gotta do, yes first.
(22:06):
It's like other times someone will be like, hey, you
want to go to this restaurant. In my mind, I'm
like hell no, and I'm like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
let's do that.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
That's like at least how mind comes out a lot
of the time, just not pushing back when someone makes
a suggestion for something to do.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
That's really funny, at least with a restaurant suggestion, they
researched a restaurant and then there was some critical thought
involved some where, just when you shoot off a video.
It's so, this is a minute and a half of
my time. I stopped responding. This's the first time I've
ever like set a boundary in this way. I just
don't respond to it anymore unless someone says, hey, this
(22:43):
is why I think you would like this, and it's like, oh, okay, cool,
Now there's some effort being put in for a for
a conversation back and wth.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
I'm really curious who even said this is called pebbling.
That's That's what I'm interested in. How did we get
to us describing this? Was like in this one part
they're talking about sharing music and it's basically what we
did when we were burning custom CDs for people like yo,
I'll throw all this shit on a CD. This is
for you. This is a mixtape I made for you,
(23:11):
Like we've been doing this so and like the pebbling,
I guess maybe just to give a bit more texture
about like this is this is this is actually you
showing that you really deeply care about someone. And maybe
I'm like, I don't know, I'm just like hooking up
the front of the homies with.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Like the new mixtape.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
But I guess, yeah, Pebbler, I think you're a serial pebbler,
and as a as a fellow pebbler, I think you
nailed it where it's it's just adding a term to
something that doesn't need a term, and honestly, I think
it does it a disservice. We're calling it pebbling. It's like, oh,
these penguins do it with pebble.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
Thoughtful.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
I don't think it does the full justice of you're
being thoughtful. You're being thoughtful.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
That's it. You're a thoughtful.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Friend, I would describe. I try to be as thoughtful
as possible. I like to keep my ear open when
people say that they like something, and then I can
connect the dots and maybe find a gift or you know,
just a movie whatever. But yeah, we're just being thoughtful, man.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Just being thoughtful, not pebbling, that's all.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
That's all.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
That's all.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
We're not subbling. Okay, sorry, not doing it. I'm gonna
be thoughtful. Oh you wanted a pebbler, Well guess what
all you get is a thoughtful human. Are you okay
with that? I'm not a penguin or Gen two. I'm
sorry if I'm mispronouncing that or hen to Look, I'm
a I'm a flesh and blood dude. Man. Now you're
burning CDs.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
The foundation of our nest is CDs. No memory X
is yah.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Man, we're using heddle with the memory X.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
Is it live or is it memory?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
You know the or the real Shout out to everybody
who had the verbatim when you're picking up the spindle
of verbatims, you know what I mean? All right, Well, anyway,
that's gonna do it for us as we fucking loser
millennials talk about blank CDs they love or do to
cdr W you know what I mean. If you can
rinse and reuse anyway.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
Anyway, so when we go we don't have to talk
to much about it. But yeah, you can reuse us anyway.
