snorfula on the discord. My name is Jack O'Brien. That
(00:22):
over there, well, that over there is mister mo.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Yeah, alright, cool, all right, hey, all right man, how
many do you live from Los Angeles? I can't wait.
Game three of the NLCS is happening in moments, same
as they call.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
It the City of Angels. But clearly they've never been
stuck in that Dodger Stadium traffic. Jesus Christ, we're doing that. Man.
We always keep we have always toy We just oh
just do morning like yeah, I mean has a bunch
of radio stations.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
I mean remember how many times like the radio guys
are like, hey man, you guys.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
You guys, you guys got something there. I'm like, no,
I swear too much. And also like the f c
C won'tn't let me be you know what I mean,
Well let me be on p O D S. All Right, myles,
It's Thursday, October sixteenth, and these are some of the
things that are trending.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
I did that for like two minutes before we started recording.
It was a big impression of a didgeridoo. But you
were doing the oscillating talking front of a fan.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Wow, because that's what I as an aside. Did you
ever use your mouth to create like reverb with a
with your phone ring tone like on a Nokia or
like anyway anyway, that's what we used to do DJ's type.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Ship. You ever stop a fan with your tongue? I
have those. That was like a cool party trick until
every everybody could do it. It's like, man, well no, no,
like it was a trick up to do it. No, No,
it was a trick that like really impressed me. When
my cousin did it, I was like, what the fuck
this guy's got. It's like, you know, putting a cigarette
(02:14):
out on your tongue type shit, and then, uh, this
is probably bad. I probably shouldn't be saying anybody can
stop a fan with their tongue, because yeah, you're sure.
It's don't let them over here their their father say that. Man,
I don't. I don't even want to. They just know
vaguely that I do podcasting. Where he's like mommy is
good at tennis and she's a doctor and she's really
(02:37):
good at that. Daddy's good at podcasts and no idea,
no idea what that means. You just say you're in
the CIA or so yeah, I gotta something, man hey,
speaking of the CIA, Miles, Oh yeah, stumbled on that one.
After months of blowing up boats, Donald Trump has now
admitted that he has secretly authorized the CIA to can
(03:00):
ducked covert action in Venezuela. Seems less covert, uh when
he when the president's coming out and saying it, I
don't I don't think yeah, as a president ever admitted
to covert CIA action. I thought that was like the
sort of ship they like take to the grave unless
it's a massive.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Or you win, right right, like where they were like,
you know, her hip hip hoaying the CIA people who
got bin laden, you know, right, and then they're incarraly
and we were doing this or whatever.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
But yeah, but I feel like you then they're just
like sealed teams sit, you know, they're not like the CIA,
Like the CIA is like a really good you know,
uh script doctor when they're doing their job right, when
they're uh succeeding you don't even know they were there.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Their whole thing is like you suspect they're up to something,
not like it's articulated that they're up to something, but hey, oh.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
My god, certainly weird that there's a path of left
wing diplomats that have all died of heart attacks.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yeah, in a row, right next to each other, on
the same street, in the same night.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
I mean, yeah, he's just cranking up the fucking regime
change volume. Now I guess to openly be like, yeah, man,
they're down there, and you know what happens when we
send the CIA to Latin America, South America, anywhere.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
There's real mission drift here is what I was at, like,
and I'd say, like message drift where it started being like, yeah,
we're doing more crime bombings of boats because they're bringing
drugs to our country. And now it's pretty clear that
they just want to topple the Maduro regime and take
(04:50):
over the government and you know, get some of that
good good that black gold Texas tea. Everyone calls it that.
I don't even say a baby better pull over. I
gotta go get some Texas tea? Do they? Was that
meant to be like t e A like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
I for all my years watching the intro to the
Beverly Hillbillies, I just thought it was just like a T,
like the letter T Texas because I'm like, why would
you drink oil?
Speaker 1 (05:19):
That's true, it's disgusting. I mean, you should try it
in my friend I saw things.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Yeah, in the movie Three Kings, a guy put the
c D in his mouth and made him drink the
oil it was not and he said.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
How's this for your stability? My main man, I love
that movie. I haven't seen it in a long time,
but I remember while fucking.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Ruled, well, yeah, because it's that fucking just insane imperialism
propaganda ship, you know what I mean, Like it's the
hardest fucking propaganda movie.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
But then I feel like they're also fairly critical of
America and like that at the end, like the Bush
administration is just like nah, fuck y'all, and we get
to like actually see that happen. I do love the
question where the guy keeps saying, what is the problem
with Michael Jackson?
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Yeah, what's the My main man kept saying, My main man,
my main man. I do that that's a thing that
my friends.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
We could not.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
We still this day, that was like our six seven
that we would say, we would say my man man
or or the really tragic part is given the monologue
about how his son was they died in a bombing.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Yeah, anyway, and you guys were like quoting that like
it was Anchorman. No, what we say is, I haven't
even told you the audible part yet. My main man,
uh huh.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Because it goes, oh, that sounds horrible, and he goes,
I haven't even told you the audible part yet.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
That was the first time, or maybe the second time
I realized Mark Wahlberg was going to be a gonna
be a star. It was that that late? Wasn't that that?
I feel like that was fairly early. I feel like
that was right around Boogie Knights. Was that, Oh I
guess ninety nine? Yeah? God, I'm old.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
God damn in my mind that was that was that
were only ten years ago?
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Anyway. What about the CIA they're overthrowing the government in Venezuela,
or at least they're openly admitting to it. Trump doesn't
know exactly how to use the CIA, so he's like,
we're doing a covert CIA overthrow, which I feel like
the number of people slapping their forehead in the CIA
must have been that's airplane right where we get least
(07:30):
twenty But Maduro has said no to regime change. He
addressed the nation and was like, could we not do that?
No two CIA orchestrated coup deta. Listen to me, no war, Yes, peace,
the people of the United States, Hey, I'm on board
with that. Well you think you think he'll hear us out,
(07:52):
Donald Trump? What just yes to peace? Yeah, yes to peace?
Could we give that war? Yes to peace?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Yeah, let's try that. Don't know, or maybe he'll be like,
you see what happened. I stopped the war that I
started against Venezuela. So add that one to my Nobel list.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
Yeah, he created some other He's still he said, some
other fucking made up war he stopped again, Like yeah, yeah,
because he is senile. Nah, he's just he is just
a visionary dog. He's like working on another level man.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Like he's reading the Percy Jackson books where like there's like,
you know, different different realities that we're not aware of.
There's like these wars raging around us, and like that's
what Trump is like fighting, you know, I mean, as
we're gonna get to he's like helping God out. You know,
this is what he said.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
He goes Iran and Pakistan had to stop that one.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
He basically said, I had to pick up the phone.
I had to stopped that one.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
I had to threaten I threatened two hundred percent tariffs
if they didn't cease when they stopped.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Okay, well, in a connected story, we're not gonna have
any idea what the fuck's going on to the Pentagon.
We're not even going to get to see all those
forehead slaps because the journalists have had to leave. Yeah,
Pete Hegseth was like, you sign this or you're out,
and they were.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Like, sign this heavily restrictive agreement that basically limits your
ability to report and be objective in any way, or go.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
And I mean even Fox.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
News, they they were like yeah, yeah, yeah, no, sorry,
we're out on this one. It was only one American
News that was like, we'll do it.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
We're good, boss. I mean, sir uh oh.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
They've got such a such far reach too. But again,
I mean they probably reached the numbskulls that matter to them.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
So yeah, that's probably what Donald Trump watches mainly. I
feel like that's really what's driving hiss at all, though
you know he hate watches the main networks though too.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yes, he's true, keeps him a fucking rage surge or
whatever the fuck he's looking for. But yeah, they so
basically because they didn't sign the thing, they all had
to pack their shit yesterday. Yeah, and like I saw
some photos like it truly was like closing times.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Yeah, just people walking out with boxes.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
With their boxes and shit. Decades of coverage from the
US military headquarters just now a memory.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Yeah. It's one of those things that you generally want
to be able to like have insight into as a citizen,
is like, what is our military the most powerful military
in the history of the world. What are they potentially
maybe not anymore, but who knows?
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Yeah, exactly like you for for a country that loves
to make war, you want to maybe it is good
to have journalists embedded in there. But a lot of
The Guardian did a piece speaking to a lot of
these people and they're like, this is actually just gonna
make me report harder, Yeah, and just figure out other ways.
But they all do basically have all said this is
(11:00):
who could have a tremendous chilling effect just not only
on their journalism, but also just the people within the
Pentagon that are willing to talk.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
This chilling effect or chilling effect. Chilling. Yeah, because here's
the other part. Pete Hegset is not chill at fucking oil.
Turns out, turns out he is chill at oil. But
he is not chill at all. I do just like
the image of somebody reporting harder, and it just means
(11:27):
that they're you know, when like uh, Elton John is
playing the piano really hard, he's like standing up, like
that's how they're typing their stories. I see an athletic position,
just pounding at the keys. I've heard whatever reason. I
picture Connor O'Malley doing. It's throwing yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Fun confidential, yeah, jamming, jamming out on I think, I mean,
I totally get. I mean, you know, there is there's
there is still this dedication to what we've all known
to be journalism, and yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Have a feeling.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
I mean, you just hear how the people in the
Pentagon feel about it and rather and I know that
people are probably going to be less likely to talk,
but shit is so bad there that they're gonna talk
because when you hate your fucking job and you hate
your boss, you want to get some shit off your chest.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
And I think that's kind of already happening with this
other story. It's a big organization to try to uh,
you know, rule with an iron fist while having none
of the bonafide is to like back up your agro
energy exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
So apparently that fucking stupid micro penis ted talk to
all the journals generals that that Pete heggsay, did apparent
Taylor's reporting that basically anyone that works for DoD must
watch this fucking speech or read the transcript in full
(13:05):
or else.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
What does that mean?
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Like, did they say like they have people Apparently he
has goons going around checking to see if people like
this is what This is one of the quotes from
the Talebees quote. H this is from a Defense Department staffer.
Obviously anonymous said, we have other things we need to
work on. When they told us we were required to
watch the Hexet speech, I didn't realize they were gonna
throw this kind of man power at forcing the mandatory
(13:31):
viewing of a Trump rally.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Right, Yeah, that's essentially what it was. There was like, no,
there's no content, there's nothing that like seemed like it
needed to be seen.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
This is what happens, Like I noted I this was
when I worked at Conde Nast. There's there's the family
that owns the company, like very wealthy, sure, and they
had their kid, like the descendants just have like these
made up jobs within the company, and like I'd be like,
what's that person doing, Like, oh, they don't do it.
(14:04):
I mean they they quote unquote work here, but they
don't do anything.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Sure, And I was like what.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
And that was like sort of my first introduction to
being like you can just do shit.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
I thought that was like in the movies or something.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Oh yeah, yeah, exactly like gas with a dog in here,
Like what the fuck? And this is in Manhattan and.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
And this is what the hecks this year reminds you.
It's just sort of like, yeah, dude, I can fucking
do whatever.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
This has no there's no point to me doing this,
but I can do it merely because of the position
that I have or the influence that I have. Because
no one understood what the point of that fucking speech was,
aside from him showing like are.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
They just like pop quizite, like when you watch an
HR video like they do, they like have follow up
where they're like in the third portion of his speech,
did mister Hegseth say America fucking rules?
Speaker 2 (14:58):
No more fatties were Did Pete Hegseth go wrong? A
was it in using signal to transmit sensitive defense information
to a journalist at the Atlantic?
Speaker 1 (15:08):
This is what this is a tail piece quote.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
At times when subordinates have replied that they had watched
the nearly hour long speech in full, higher ranking officials
have immediately asked the staffers questions about the speech, as
if to, in other words, tests them and make sure
they aren't lying. In other instances, Defense Department staff were
warned that there would be negative consequences if they were
found to have not actually watched or read this speech,
(15:33):
or if they were found to have mocked hag Seth's address.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
What must those meetings be? Like, dude, but behind where
he is getting in the ass of everybody who's like
it directly reports to him about like his insecurity that
people didn't watch his speech. Yeah, that's what that's amazing,
Like it must be so fucking crazy. People who are
tasked with real these ship.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
You know what I mean, Like you're the American war machine,
like bombing the boat.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Dude, I just blew up a party boat because you
told me to. Can you give me the fucking day?
What was when I say, what was your favorite part
of speech? Going go?
Speaker 6 (16:16):
Oh, you like to say quote like speech to say
every part I don't know, fatties or uglies or women.
You gotta see you, guys, this is what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Miles fucking reads the instructions and he understands the assignment.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
That's right, dude. Can I get back to video game
killing people? Please?
Speaker 2 (16:39):
But yeah, it's I mean again, just shows how thin
skinned and weak these people are. Like they're projecting a
lot of power, but in their core they are these
like very very fragile, ego driven people. And unfortunately, yeah,
they have an entire war machine at her disposal right now.
(17:01):
But I think it just goes to show like these
are not fucking like tough guys we're dealing with.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
These are people like watch my did you likes? Apparently fools?
Speaker 2 (17:10):
This is like when I was posting my YouTube videos
on Facebook, like did.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
You watch on you see it? Did you watch? Everybody
catch this one? Yeah, we fucking saw it.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Man, you're spamming the fucking timeline right now.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Yeah, all right, let's take a quick break. We'll be
right back, and we're back, and we want to check
out with our favorite couple, Laura Trump and Eric Trump,
(17:43):
the lesser Trump's, Yeah, the lesser Trumps exactly. Uh. Laura
has officially volunteered to perform at the alternative Super Bowl
halftime concert. I just want to read the description of
how she did it? Do you want to hear it?
You got to almost, Yeah, you're it. You want to
did you?
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Because I was reading the tech the second I read
the text, like I have to find I need to
fucking see this person pretend like they just thought this
up rather than something they've been obsessing.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
That is exactly what is happening. Uh yeah, where they're like,
who do you think Laura should be in on the
halftime show?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Yeah right, totally like probably the most engineered segment two
where it's like, oh, here's a here's a because it
came in as like I'm just doing some like reader
like listener emails, Oh who do I.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Think should be in the in the TP the turning
point us a half times so it's kind of how
this begins.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Yeah, I'm just gonna cut to the part where it's
about her.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
She like rattles off a few a couple of no names,
and then damn, she's getting the Trump face too, the
Mega face. Yeah, she's blending into the Laura Lumer.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Into the into the scenery. Okay, here she is saying,
here's here's a fucking wacky idea. I feel like we
have a lot of great people who we could add
into this.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
I haven't really thought about it as first I thought
about it. Yeah, yeah, it seems like it. But you
know what, you can throw a large Trump in there.
That's right, laughing niashlyge.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
She threw her head back, like Rita Rapulsa fucking Power
Rangers or some shit.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Okay, Okay, go on, Larla, I'll hear your pitch.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Imagine imagine how upset people on the left would be
if something like that happened.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
It sort of makes me want to offer myself up.
I have not been asked, but I'm going to offer
it right now, off myself.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
See what happens.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
The great news is we don't need the NFL. We
don't need any of these woke losers. Too. Yes, Oh
there's that energy performance shout out to turning point.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
The looking down being like, and we don't need like
these woke losers, the people who actually are the arbiters
of popular mainstream culture, Like, we don't need that, actually
the people that like I.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Fucking wish would accept me. No, we don't need them.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
We need our own insular simulacrum of a world where
we are talented and good people.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
This is like someone being like, oh my god, we
should kiss. Imagine how freaked out everyone would be if
we kissed right now. They would be so mad right like,
they'll be mad for a lot of reasons. Oh my god,
I wouldn't it upset?
Speaker 4 (20:16):
That?
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Wouldn't it be so funny if we can we got.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Wouldn't it be so upse Like, that's not a good
pitch where it's like, wouldn't it be great that you
chose me for a thing? You kind of want to
be serious purely because.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
I'm the troll, the troll like option here, but and
also like a troll option that is going. There's video
of her like singing, so she's a recording artist, which
is not something I realized, and has a song on
Spotify that's like auto tuned slop that has been streamed
(20:48):
two millions. Oh no, sorry, that's two thousand, seven hundred
and thirty one times total. Yet almost definitely entirely by her.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Oh you know, she's probably got fucking forty eight phones
in a row.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Yeah, with that ship on repeat, and just like I
don't know, man, I was talking, I just loop them.
And then there's like she's she's saying, won't back down
at a mar a lago event. I think, yeah, it's
better like the auto tune ship.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
It hides everything, you know what I mean. It's it's
it's vocal makeup. Now, this at a lectern during a
maga thing, singing Tom Petty like.
Speaker 7 (21:25):
This, yeah, uh huh, it's I mean, it's karaoke quality.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
It's like B plus B plus to be minus karaoke
quality singing, yeah, yeah, plus to be minus. You know
what she's doing like little runs, She's doing a little
flourishing like right here, like she had been working on
(22:02):
that shit. She had been working on that shit. This
is first of all, she's right. I would be so
mad if she got up there and did her singing.
I would cry so much. I could fill up a
coffee mug. It would be checkmate for us here on
the daily zeke I say, in no way would it
resemble the part of Citizen Kane, a movie about a
corrupt billionaire where he lets his young wife sing and
(22:24):
she sucks shit and everybody's laughing and it drives him crazy. Uh,
it would instead be totally fucking onwn us. This is
like one of my like I did, used to watch
the early rounds of American Idol, and honestly, it is
some of the most compelling TV I've ever seen. I've
(22:45):
never fully understood like that, but this there is this
just drive within people who aren't good singers, but they
just like it is like they've been incepted with the
idea that they should be a world famous vocalist, like completely.
And I just wonder because obviously, like, like like I mentioned,
(23:05):
there's a plot line and Citizen Kane about somebody like
this where like he marries this young woman who's like,
I want to be a great singer. So this has
been going on forever. Is it that their voices sound
great to them in their own head and like nowhere
else or is it just a form of narcissism? Yeah,
it's it's again. This is what like being wealthy and
(23:27):
white does to people. Yeah, especially in this.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Country, Like you're just you're gonna surround yourself with other
people like, oh my god, I love it because of
your wealth, you know what I mean, And like people
are gonna trying to be upwardly mobile around her. But
also like she was probably raised on a diet of
like bad.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Encouragements in the entire life, you know what I mean,
Like absolutely, just like a father, like not looking away
from the TV, just being like, yeah, it sounds great, babe,
you're doing it. Y put your sanctity ring back on.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Sing butterfly kisses, not this hippie Tom Petty bullshit.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
That's right. She does do like a little during the performance,
she does like a little fun point off to the crowd,
like she's a professional husband performer. So yeah, we know that,
you know he's there. It's not it's not a crowd.
There's like twenty people in audio. You don't need to
plant an you're not You're not Tom Petty just getting
(24:29):
out there and like seeing someone you recognize in the crowd.
You're you're in a room like you were just sitting
with these people getting up there. It's like do it.
It's like the people doing the little ear thing where
they're you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Not only that that wasn't a fucking legitimate musical performance.
That was a fucking holiday dinner when they said go
on and sing, baby, go sing for everybody? Right, you
have a captive audience in here. Who are people trying
to climb the fucking ladders of power?
Speaker 1 (25:02):
And do you want to say, like a Christmas song
I've been working on, won't back down for fucking three months?
Oh god, okay, okay, I feel like maybe you could
feel the like the work she had put in on
that little hey, like she a little thing, and.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
If she just sang without music playing so she could
just get her pitch right, she might have been she
might have been able to pull that.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
No, this is as good as it, guess for it,
because that was like very carefully choreographed, very carefully. Hell,
there's a stunt vocalist backstage of the microphone. That person
sucked as like you fucking burned me up there. All right,
let's check in quick with her husband, who went on
(25:50):
the Benny Johnson. He still has a show.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Yeah, Well that's what we call it the what what
what do we calling it these days?
Speaker 3 (25:58):
My infant nearly died in a drug fight after mass shooting.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Show, and yeah, Eric Trump was there to pedal his
new book called Something That Was.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Or something Dude.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
Don't worry because he talked about it, and I ignored
that part.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
But the part that is sticking out to me is
the fucking heaven shit? Is daddy going to heaven?
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Talk?
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Is he went back? Well, he's back on it. He
would you kids mind going going around and saying I'm
going to heaven?
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Do you guys mind going out there? And maybe if yeah, like,
can we get a whisper campaign going, kind of like
how people win Academy awards to.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Get me into the fucking heavens. This is him being like,
if he wasn't heaven bound, my dadd is heaven bound?
My dad is heaven bound? Are you crazy? Of course
he is.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
If he wasn't heaven bound, he wouldn't have been alive
after Butler. If he wasn't heaven bound, that flag wouldn't
have folded up like a purpose right above his head.
If he wasn't heaven bound, if he wasn't meant for
this purpose, he wouldn't have beaten Hillary. We wouldn't have
beaten Hillary, we wouldn't have got the landmine.
Speaker 8 (27:02):
Okay, And then he's like, they they tried to fucking
destroy my family. They said you couldn't write a better
comeback than this through probably some kind of real underhanded,
dark shit that has yet to be revealed in probably
some kind of legal investigation that we'll never get. But anyway,
here he goes on now to really pump up their
own fucking Dix and say, they're saving Christianity.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
You know, we're saving Christianity, We're saving God, or saving
the family unit, we're saving this nation. I mean, you know,
DEI is out the window, Benny, you know, I mean
you no longer have Colin Kaepernick kneeling for the national
you know, for the national anthem. You no longer have
you know, a Budweiser going woke as hell.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Right, Yeah, the Budweiser thing dead.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
And yet what do we have? You know, we have
a return to people going to church.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
That's funny because no, people are not going back to church. Yeah,
none of the things he brought up there. You know,
we're actually actually ends late to being like happier, healthier,
or wealthier in this country, like they've truly they've mastered
the art of cultural grievances as policies, Like, look, look
what we've done. Man, there's no longer the black man
(28:11):
protesting actively reminding us the work.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
We need to do to heal this station. We don't
have that anymore. Your beer doesn't have like colorful shit
on it.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
On the box once a year, you know. And now
your medication might.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Be more expensive anyway and doesn't matter. Yeah. And in
the Bible, just going off of their text, it certainly
never says anything about people who place themselves above God
and say, uh, he should actually be thanking us. Like
if he's gonna say I'm not good enough for Heaven,
he's actually not good enough for us. I'm like, maybe
(28:50):
you should be worshiping us because we saved God.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
That sounds like some ship that the whole Trump family
is in front of Saint Peter and trying to get in.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Yeah, exactly, they're gonna be like wait, wait, what what what?
What what you're bringing woke shit into this hold on ship.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Last I checked, my dad saved God's ass.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Bit you saved God. That's like, uh what one of
the mega people was saying that they were like I bet,
I bet God's waiting in line to get Charlie Kirk's
autograph today. They're just like they're so deep into a
(29:31):
cult like that supposedly start like started with them shaming
people for not knowing the Bible. They're like doing They're
doing the ship from like the cartoon version of like
Bible Lessons where it's like, hey, guys, I got this
new golden calf. Let's worship you. Okay, it's really cool.
(29:51):
Never mind about God, the one True God, Let's worship
this golden calf.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
I mean they are I guess they're going for the
Divine Right King's type strategy here, Like if they're I mean,
because this is to say this is I mean, whether
they understand it or not, like they're trying to deify
him to be like if he's saying, like how they
could not know they're doing that. But then it's just
like I wonder, like are they just I mean whatever.
(30:16):
I think people who are naturally predatory like this are
going to naturally land in a place where they're like, well,
I have to obviously find a way to rhetorically put
this person as the highest authority possible for any living
person or else or else there just a senile old
seventy nine year old who keeps talking about.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
When they get into heaven. I mean, they might get
into heaven if Laura Trump's halftime show performance is sick enough,
but well she's got she sings with the voice of
an angel.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Folks, if heaven is the name of like some township
in Florida, Yeah, they're going.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
There, all right. Those are some of the things that
are trending on this October sixteenth. We are back tomorrow
with the whole last episode of the show. Until then,
be kind to each other, be kind to yourself, get
your vaccines while you still can get your flu shots.

to you all tomorrow. Bye bye.

(00:22):
over there, well, that over there is mister mo.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Yeah, alright, cool, all right, hey, all right man, how
many do you live from Los Angeles? I can't wait.
Game three of the NLCS is happening in moments, same

Speaker 1 (00:36):
It the City of Angels. But clearly they've never been
stuck in that Dodger Stadium traffic. Jesus Christ, we're doing that. Man.
We always keep we have always toy We just oh
just do morning like yeah, I mean has a bunch
of radio stations.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
I mean remember how many times like the radio guys
are like, hey man, you guys.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
You guys, you guys got something there. I'm like, no,
I swear too much. And also like the f c
C won'tn't let me be you know what I mean,
Well let me be on p O D S. All Right, myles,
It's Thursday, October sixteenth, and these are some of the
things that are trending.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
I did that for like two minutes before we started recording.
It was a big impression of a didgeridoo. But you
were doing the oscillating talking front of a fan.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Wow, because that's what I as an aside. Did you
ever use your mouth to create like reverb with a
with your phone ring tone like on a Nokia or
like anyway anyway, that's what we used to do DJ's type.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Ship. You ever stop a fan with your tongue? I
have those. That was like a cool party trick until
every everybody could do it. It's like, man, well no, no,
like it was a trick up to do it. No, No,
it was a trick that like really impressed me. When
my cousin did it, I was like, what the fuck
this guy's got. It's like, you know, putting a cigarette
(02:14):
out on your tongue type shit, and then, uh, this
is probably bad. I probably shouldn't be saying anybody can
stop a fan with their tongue, because yeah, you're sure.
It's don't let them over here their their father say that. Man,
I don't. I don't even want to. They just know
vaguely that I do podcasting. Where he's like mommy is
good at tennis and she's a doctor and she's really
(02:37):
good at that. Daddy's good at podcasts and no idea,
no idea what that means. You just say you're in
the CIA or so yeah, I gotta something, man hey,
speaking of the CIA, Miles, Oh yeah, stumbled on that one.
After months of blowing up boats, Donald Trump has now
admitted that he has secretly authorized the CIA to can
(03:00):
ducked covert action in Venezuela. Seems less covert, uh when
he when the president's coming out and saying it, I
don't I don't think yeah, as a president ever admitted
to covert CIA action. I thought that was like the
sort of ship they like take to the grave unless
it's a massive.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Or you win, right right, like where they were like,
you know, her hip hip hoaying the CIA people who
got bin laden, you know, right, and then they're incarraly
and we were doing this or whatever.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
But yeah, but I feel like you then they're just
like sealed teams sit, you know, they're not like the CIA,
Like the CIA is like a really good you know,
uh script doctor when they're doing their job right, when
they're uh succeeding you don't even know they were there.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Their whole thing is like you suspect they're up to something,
not like it's articulated that they're up to something, but hey, oh.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
My god, certainly weird that there's a path of left
wing diplomats that have all died of heart attacks.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yeah, in a row, right next to each other, on
the same street, in the same night.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
I mean, yeah, he's just cranking up the fucking regime
change volume. Now I guess to openly be like, yeah, man,
they're down there, and you know what happens when we
send the CIA to Latin America, South America, anywhere.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
There's real mission drift here is what I was at, like,
and I'd say, like message drift where it started being like, yeah,
we're doing more crime bombings of boats because they're bringing
drugs to our country. And now it's pretty clear that
they just want to topple the Maduro regime and take
(04:50):
over the government and you know, get some of that
good good that black gold Texas tea. Everyone calls it that.
I don't even say a baby better pull over. I
gotta go get some Texas tea? Do they? Was that
meant to be like t e A like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
I for all my years watching the intro to the
Beverly Hillbillies, I just thought it was just like a T,
like the letter T Texas because I'm like, why would
you drink oil?
Speaker 1 (05:19):
That's true, it's disgusting. I mean, you should try it
in my friend I saw things.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Yeah, in the movie Three Kings, a guy put the
c D in his mouth and made him drink the
oil it was not and he said.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
How's this for your stability? My main man, I love
that movie. I haven't seen it in a long time,
but I remember while fucking.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Ruled, well, yeah, because it's that fucking just insane imperialism
propaganda ship, you know what I mean, Like it's the
hardest fucking propaganda movie.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
But then I feel like they're also fairly critical of
America and like that at the end, like the Bush
administration is just like nah, fuck y'all, and we get
to like actually see that happen. I do love the
question where the guy keeps saying, what is the problem
with Michael Jackson?
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Yeah, what's the My main man kept saying, My main man,
my main man. I do that that's a thing that
my friends.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
We could not.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
We still this day, that was like our six seven
that we would say, we would say my man man
or or the really tragic part is given the monologue
about how his son was they died in a bombing.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Yeah, anyway, and you guys were like quoting that like
it was Anchorman. No, what we say is, I haven't
even told you the audible part yet. My main man,
uh huh.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Because it goes, oh, that sounds horrible, and he goes,
I haven't even told you the audible part yet.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
That was the first time, or maybe the second time
I realized Mark Wahlberg was going to be a gonna
be a star. It was that that late? Wasn't that that?
I feel like that was fairly early. I feel like
that was right around Boogie Knights. Was that, Oh I
guess ninety nine? Yeah? God, I'm old.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
God damn in my mind that was that was that
were only ten years ago?
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Anyway. What about the CIA they're overthrowing the government in Venezuela,
or at least they're openly admitting to it. Trump doesn't
know exactly how to use the CIA, so he's like,
we're doing a covert CIA overthrow, which I feel like
the number of people slapping their forehead in the CIA
must have been that's airplane right where we get least
(07:30):
twenty But Maduro has said no to regime change. He
addressed the nation and was like, could we not do that?
No two CIA orchestrated coup deta. Listen to me, no war, Yes, peace,
the people of the United States, Hey, I'm on board
with that. Well you think you think he'll hear us out,
(07:52):
Donald Trump? What just yes to peace? Yeah, yes to peace?
Could we give that war? Yes to peace?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Yeah, let's try that. Don't know, or maybe he'll be like,
you see what happened. I stopped the war that I
started against Venezuela. So add that one to my Nobel list.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
Yeah, he created some other He's still he said, some
other fucking made up war he stopped again, Like yeah, yeah,
because he is senile. Nah, he's just he is just
a visionary dog. He's like working on another level man.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Like he's reading the Percy Jackson books where like there's like,
you know, different different realities that we're not aware of.
There's like these wars raging around us, and like that's
what Trump is like fighting, you know, I mean, as
we're gonna get to he's like helping God out. You know,
this is what he said.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
He goes Iran and Pakistan had to stop that one.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
He basically said, I had to pick up the phone.
I had to stopped that one.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
I had to threaten I threatened two hundred percent tariffs
if they didn't cease when they stopped.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Okay, well, in a connected story, we're not gonna have
any idea what the fuck's going on to the Pentagon.
We're not even going to get to see all those
forehead slaps because the journalists have had to leave. Yeah,
Pete Hegseth was like, you sign this or you're out,
and they were.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Like, sign this heavily restrictive agreement that basically limits your
ability to report and be objective in any way, or go.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
And I mean even Fox.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
News, they they were like yeah, yeah, yeah, no, sorry,
we're out on this one. It was only one American
News that was like, we'll do it.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
We're good, boss. I mean, sir uh oh.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
They've got such a such far reach too. But again,
I mean they probably reached the numbskulls that matter to them.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
So yeah, that's probably what Donald Trump watches mainly. I
feel like that's really what's driving hiss at all, though
you know he hate watches the main networks though too.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yes, he's true, keeps him a fucking rage surge or
whatever the fuck he's looking for. But yeah, they so
basically because they didn't sign the thing, they all had
to pack their shit yesterday. Yeah, and like I saw
some photos like it truly was like closing times.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Yeah, just people walking out with boxes.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
With their boxes and shit. Decades of coverage from the
US military headquarters just now a memory.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Yeah. It's one of those things that you generally want
to be able to like have insight into as a citizen,
is like, what is our military the most powerful military
in the history of the world. What are they potentially
maybe not anymore, but who knows?
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Yeah, exactly like you for for a country that loves
to make war, you want to maybe it is good
to have journalists embedded in there. But a lot of
The Guardian did a piece speaking to a lot of
these people and they're like, this is actually just gonna
make me report harder, Yeah, and just figure out other ways.
But they all do basically have all said this is
(11:00):
who could have a tremendous chilling effect just not only
on their journalism, but also just the people within the
Pentagon that are willing to talk.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
This chilling effect or chilling effect. Chilling. Yeah, because here's
the other part. Pete Hegset is not chill at fucking oil.
Turns out, turns out he is chill at oil. But
he is not chill at all. I do just like
the image of somebody reporting harder, and it just means
(11:27):
that they're you know, when like uh, Elton John is
playing the piano really hard, he's like standing up, like
that's how they're typing their stories. I see an athletic position,
just pounding at the keys. I've heard whatever reason. I
picture Connor O'Malley doing. It's throwing yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Fun confidential, yeah, jamming, jamming out on I think, I mean,
I totally get. I mean, you know, there is there's
there is still this dedication to what we've all known
to be journalism, and yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Have a feeling.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
I mean, you just hear how the people in the
Pentagon feel about it and rather and I know that
people are probably going to be less likely to talk,
but shit is so bad there that they're gonna talk
because when you hate your fucking job and you hate
your boss, you want to get some shit off your chest.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
And I think that's kind of already happening with this
other story. It's a big organization to try to uh,
you know, rule with an iron fist while having none
of the bonafide is to like back up your agro
energy exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
So apparently that fucking stupid micro penis ted talk to
all the journals generals that that Pete heggsay, did apparent
Taylor's reporting that basically anyone that works for DoD must
watch this fucking speech or read the transcript in full
(13:05):
or else.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
What does that mean?
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Like, did they say like they have people Apparently he
has goons going around checking to see if people like
this is what This is one of the quotes from
the Talebees quote. H this is from a Defense Department staffer.
Obviously anonymous said, we have other things we need to
work on. When they told us we were required to
watch the Hexet speech, I didn't realize they were gonna
throw this kind of man power at forcing the mandatory
(13:31):
viewing of a Trump rally.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Right, Yeah, that's essentially what it was. There was like, no,
there's no content, there's nothing that like seemed like it
needed to be seen.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
This is what happens, Like I noted I this was
when I worked at Conde Nast. There's there's the family
that owns the company, like very wealthy, sure, and they
had their kid, like the descendants just have like these
made up jobs within the company, and like I'd be like,
what's that person doing, Like, oh, they don't do it.
(14:04):
I mean they they quote unquote work here, but they
don't do anything.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Sure, And I was like what.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
And that was like sort of my first introduction to
being like you can just do shit.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
I thought that was like in the movies or something.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Oh yeah, yeah, exactly like gas with a dog in here,
Like what the fuck? And this is in Manhattan and.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
And this is what the hecks this year reminds you.
It's just sort of like, yeah, dude, I can fucking
do whatever.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
This has no there's no point to me doing this,
but I can do it merely because of the position
that I have or the influence that I have. Because
no one understood what the point of that fucking speech was,
aside from him showing like are.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
They just like pop quizite, like when you watch an
HR video like they do, they like have follow up
where they're like in the third portion of his speech,
did mister Hegseth say America fucking rules?
Speaker 2 (14:58):
No more fatties were Did Pete Hegseth go wrong? A
was it in using signal to transmit sensitive defense information
to a journalist at the Atlantic?
Speaker 1 (15:08):
This is what this is a tail piece quote.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
At times when subordinates have replied that they had watched
the nearly hour long speech in full, higher ranking officials
have immediately asked the staffers questions about the speech, as
if to, in other words, tests them and make sure
they aren't lying. In other instances, Defense Department staff were
warned that there would be negative consequences if they were
found to have not actually watched or read this speech,
(15:33):
or if they were found to have mocked hag Seth's address.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
What must those meetings be? Like, dude, but behind where
he is getting in the ass of everybody who's like
it directly reports to him about like his insecurity that
people didn't watch his speech. Yeah, that's what that's amazing,
Like it must be so fucking crazy. People who are
tasked with real these ship.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
You know what I mean, Like you're the American war machine,
like bombing the boat.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Dude, I just blew up a party boat because you
told me to. Can you give me the fucking day?
What was when I say, what was your favorite part
of speech? Going go?
Speaker 6 (16:16):
Oh, you like to say quote like speech to say
every part I don't know, fatties or uglies or women.
You gotta see you, guys, this is what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Miles fucking reads the instructions and he understands the assignment.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
That's right, dude. Can I get back to video game
killing people? Please?
Speaker 2 (16:39):
But yeah, it's I mean again, just shows how thin
skinned and weak these people are. Like they're projecting a
lot of power, but in their core they are these
like very very fragile, ego driven people. And unfortunately, yeah,
they have an entire war machine at her disposal right now.
(17:01):
But I think it just goes to show like these
are not fucking like tough guys we're dealing with.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
These are people like watch my did you likes? Apparently fools?
Speaker 2 (17:10):
This is like when I was posting my YouTube videos
on Facebook, like did.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
You watch on you see it? Did you watch? Everybody
catch this one? Yeah, we fucking saw it.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Man, you're spamming the fucking timeline right now.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Yeah, all right, let's take a quick break. We'll be
right back, and we're back, and we want to check
out with our favorite couple, Laura Trump and Eric Trump,
(17:43):
the lesser Trump's, Yeah, the lesser Trumps exactly. Uh. Laura
has officially volunteered to perform at the alternative Super Bowl
halftime concert. I just want to read the description of
how she did it? Do you want to hear it?
You got to almost, Yeah, you're it. You want to
did you?
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Because I was reading the tech the second I read
the text, like I have to find I need to
fucking see this person pretend like they just thought this
up rather than something they've been obsessing.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
That is exactly what is happening. Uh yeah, where they're like,
who do you think Laura should be in on the
halftime show?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Yeah right, totally like probably the most engineered segment two
where it's like, oh, here's a here's a because it
came in as like I'm just doing some like reader
like listener emails, Oh who do I.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Think should be in the in the TP the turning
point us a half times so it's kind of how
this begins.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Yeah, I'm just gonna cut to the part where it's
about her.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
She like rattles off a few a couple of no names,
and then damn, she's getting the Trump face too, the
Mega face. Yeah, she's blending into the Laura Lumer.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Into the into the scenery. Okay, here she is saying,
here's here's a fucking wacky idea. I feel like we
have a lot of great people who we could add
into this.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
I haven't really thought about it as first I thought
about it. Yeah, yeah, it seems like it. But you
know what, you can throw a large Trump in there.
That's right, laughing niashlyge.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
She threw her head back, like Rita Rapulsa fucking Power
Rangers or some shit.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Okay, Okay, go on, Larla, I'll hear your pitch.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Imagine imagine how upset people on the left would be
if something like that happened.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
It sort of makes me want to offer myself up.
I have not been asked, but I'm going to offer
it right now, off myself.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
See what happens.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
The great news is we don't need the NFL. We
don't need any of these woke losers. Too. Yes, Oh
there's that energy performance shout out to turning point.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
The looking down being like, and we don't need like
these woke losers, the people who actually are the arbiters
of popular mainstream culture, Like, we don't need that, actually
the people that like I.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Fucking wish would accept me. No, we don't need them.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
We need our own insular simulacrum of a world where
we are talented and good people.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
This is like someone being like, oh my god, we
should kiss. Imagine how freaked out everyone would be if
we kissed right now. They would be so mad right like,
they'll be mad for a lot of reasons. Oh my god,
I wouldn't it upset?
Speaker 4 (20:16):
That?
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Wouldn't it be so funny if we can we got.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Wouldn't it be so upse Like, that's not a good
pitch where it's like, wouldn't it be great that you
chose me for a thing? You kind of want to
be serious purely because.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
I'm the troll, the troll like option here, but and
also like a troll option that is going. There's video
of her like singing, so she's a recording artist, which
is not something I realized, and has a song on
Spotify that's like auto tuned slop that has been streamed
(20:48):
two millions. Oh no, sorry, that's two thousand, seven hundred
and thirty one times total. Yet almost definitely entirely by her.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Oh you know, she's probably got fucking forty eight phones
in a row.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Yeah, with that ship on repeat, and just like I
don't know, man, I was talking, I just loop them.
And then there's like she's she's saying, won't back down
at a mar a lago event. I think, yeah, it's
better like the auto tune ship.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
It hides everything, you know what I mean. It's it's
it's vocal makeup. Now, this at a lectern during a
maga thing, singing Tom Petty like.
Speaker 7 (21:25):
This, yeah, uh huh, it's I mean, it's karaoke quality.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
It's like B plus B plus to be minus karaoke
quality singing, yeah, yeah, plus to be minus. You know
what she's doing like little runs, She's doing a little
flourishing like right here, like she had been working on
(22:02):
that shit. She had been working on that shit. This
is first of all, she's right. I would be so
mad if she got up there and did her singing.
I would cry so much. I could fill up a
coffee mug. It would be checkmate for us here on
the daily zeke I say, in no way would it
resemble the part of Citizen Kane, a movie about a
corrupt billionaire where he lets his young wife sing and
(22:24):
she sucks shit and everybody's laughing and it drives him crazy. Uh,
it would instead be totally fucking onwn us. This is
like one of my like I did, used to watch
the early rounds of American Idol, and honestly, it is
some of the most compelling TV I've ever seen. I've
(22:45):
never fully understood like that, but this there is this
just drive within people who aren't good singers, but they
just like it is like they've been incepted with the
idea that they should be a world famous vocalist, like completely.
And I just wonder because obviously, like, like like I mentioned,
(23:05):
there's a plot line and Citizen Kane about somebody like
this where like he marries this young woman who's like,
I want to be a great singer. So this has
been going on forever. Is it that their voices sound
great to them in their own head and like nowhere
else or is it just a form of narcissism? Yeah,
it's it's again. This is what like being wealthy and
(23:27):
white does to people. Yeah, especially in this.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Country, Like you're just you're gonna surround yourself with other
people like, oh my god, I love it because of
your wealth, you know what I mean, And like people
are gonna trying to be upwardly mobile around her. But
also like she was probably raised on a diet of
like bad.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Encouragements in the entire life, you know what I mean,
Like absolutely, just like a father, like not looking away
from the TV, just being like, yeah, it sounds great, babe,
you're doing it. Y put your sanctity ring back on.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Sing butterfly kisses, not this hippie Tom Petty bullshit.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
That's right. She does do like a little during the performance,
she does like a little fun point off to the crowd,
like she's a professional husband performer. So yeah, we know that,
you know he's there. It's not it's not a crowd.
There's like twenty people in audio. You don't need to
plant an you're not You're not Tom Petty just getting
(24:29):
out there and like seeing someone you recognize in the crowd.
You're you're in a room like you were just sitting
with these people getting up there. It's like do it.
It's like the people doing the little ear thing where
they're you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Not only that that wasn't a fucking legitimate musical performance.
That was a fucking holiday dinner when they said go
on and sing, baby, go sing for everybody? Right, you
have a captive audience in here. Who are people trying
to climb the fucking ladders of power?
Speaker 1 (25:02):
And do you want to say, like a Christmas song
I've been working on, won't back down for fucking three months?
Oh god, okay, okay, I feel like maybe you could
feel the like the work she had put in on
that little hey, like she a little thing, and.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
If she just sang without music playing so she could
just get her pitch right, she might have been she
might have been able to pull that.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
No, this is as good as it, guess for it,
because that was like very carefully choreographed, very carefully. Hell,
there's a stunt vocalist backstage of the microphone. That person
sucked as like you fucking burned me up there. All right,
let's check in quick with her husband, who went on
(25:50):
the Benny Johnson. He still has a show.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Yeah, Well that's what we call it the what what
what do we calling it these days?
Speaker 3 (25:58):
My infant nearly died in a drug fight after mass shooting.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Show, and yeah, Eric Trump was there to pedal his
new book called Something That Was.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Or something Dude.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
Don't worry because he talked about it, and I ignored
that part.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
But the part that is sticking out to me is
the fucking heaven shit? Is daddy going to heaven?
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Talk?
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Is he went back? Well, he's back on it. He
would you kids mind going going around and saying I'm
going to heaven?
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Do you guys mind going out there? And maybe if yeah, like,
can we get a whisper campaign going, kind of like
how people win Academy awards to.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Get me into the fucking heavens. This is him being like,
if he wasn't heaven bound, my dadd is heaven bound?
My dad is heaven bound? Are you crazy? Of course
he is.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
If he wasn't heaven bound, he wouldn't have been alive
after Butler. If he wasn't heaven bound, that flag wouldn't
have folded up like a purpose right above his head.
If he wasn't heaven bound, if he wasn't meant for
this purpose, he wouldn't have beaten Hillary. We wouldn't have
beaten Hillary, we wouldn't have got the landmine.
Speaker 8 (27:02):
Okay, And then he's like, they they tried to fucking
destroy my family. They said you couldn't write a better
comeback than this through probably some kind of real underhanded,
dark shit that has yet to be revealed in probably
some kind of legal investigation that we'll never get. But anyway,
here he goes on now to really pump up their
own fucking Dix and say, they're saving Christianity.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
You know, we're saving Christianity, We're saving God, or saving
the family unit, we're saving this nation. I mean, you know,
DEI is out the window, Benny, you know, I mean
you no longer have Colin Kaepernick kneeling for the national
you know, for the national anthem. You no longer have
you know, a Budweiser going woke as hell.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Right, Yeah, the Budweiser thing dead.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
And yet what do we have? You know, we have
a return to people going to church.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
That's funny because no, people are not going back to church. Yeah,
none of the things he brought up there. You know,
we're actually actually ends late to being like happier, healthier,
or wealthier in this country, like they've truly they've mastered
the art of cultural grievances as policies, Like, look, look
what we've done. Man, there's no longer the black man
(28:11):
protesting actively reminding us the work.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
We need to do to heal this station. We don't
have that anymore. Your beer doesn't have like colorful shit
on it.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
On the box once a year, you know. And now
your medication might.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Be more expensive anyway and doesn't matter. Yeah. And in
the Bible, just going off of their text, it certainly
never says anything about people who place themselves above God
and say, uh, he should actually be thanking us. Like
if he's gonna say I'm not good enough for Heaven,
he's actually not good enough for us. I'm like, maybe
(28:50):
you should be worshiping us because we saved God.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
That sounds like some ship that the whole Trump family
is in front of Saint Peter and trying to get in.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Yeah, exactly, they're gonna be like wait, wait, what what what?
What what you're bringing woke shit into this hold on ship.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Last I checked, my dad saved God's ass.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Bit you saved God. That's like, uh what one of
the mega people was saying that they were like I bet,
I bet God's waiting in line to get Charlie Kirk's
autograph today. They're just like they're so deep into a
(29:31):
cult like that supposedly start like started with them shaming
people for not knowing the Bible. They're like doing They're
doing the ship from like the cartoon version of like
Bible Lessons where it's like, hey, guys, I got this
new golden calf. Let's worship you. Okay, it's really cool.
(29:51):
Never mind about God, the one True God, Let's worship
this golden calf.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
I mean they are I guess they're going for the
Divine Right King's type strategy here, Like if they're I mean,
because this is to say this is I mean, whether
they understand it or not, like they're trying to deify
him to be like if he's saying, like how they
could not know they're doing that. But then it's just
like I wonder, like are they just I mean whatever.
(30:16):
I think people who are naturally predatory like this are
going to naturally land in a place where they're like, well,
I have to obviously find a way to rhetorically put
this person as the highest authority possible for any living
person or else or else there just a senile old
seventy nine year old who keeps talking about.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
When they get into heaven. I mean, they might get
into heaven if Laura Trump's halftime show performance is sick enough,
but well she's got she sings with the voice of
an angel.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Folks, if heaven is the name of like some township
in Florida, Yeah, they're going.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
There, all right. Those are some of the things that
are trending on this October sixteenth. We are back tomorrow
with the whole last episode of the show. Until then,
be kind to each other, be kind to yourself, get
your vaccines while you still can get your flu shots.
Don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we will talk
to you all tomorrow. Bye bye.
