but okay, it's me.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Bill. How are you guys doing.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I'm good. I guess this foster cat if anybody wants
to adopt it, it will rip my heart out. But
also it's probably what you should be doing, is it
is fostering cats, not foster filing every pet that I have?
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Yeah, what are the what are the actual odds that
this is just your cat?
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Now?
Speaker 1 (05:53):
I don't want to talk about. Well, that's like how
a lot of them happen because like there's just no
one taking in pets, and like there's there is one
of the okay, now she's rubbing her face on the laptop,
so the camera shaking. There's like a bunch of pets
that are now in it's weird to say they're pets
(06:14):
in the foster system, but they're in rescues and shelters
because people are getting deported. They're literally getting deported and
their pets are getting So it's like that's fine, Yeah,
I guess because their pets have asylum, but they don't
as human beings, Like what the fuck? You know?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Jesus Christ?
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Yeah, so adopt pets please. Otherwise everyone who fosters is
just gonna have all the pets forever.

Very sweet girl, is it? A boy.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
She does love Well, that's the worst part. But other
than that very cute, we do not allow that.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Oh yeah, she was in the Sydney Sweeney commercial. She's
always like, I have the best genes and I'm like,
goddamn cat, I know. Oh my god, I got a
white dog. At one point, my friends would not let
me hear the end of it.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
They were like wow. They were like, wow, wow, you changed.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Interracial adoption.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Golden retriever. All right, Polly, we're gonna get to know
you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're
going to tell the listeners a couple of things we're
talking about. Were you talking about the Texas Democrats? They
appear to be like doing something which is noteworthy for
interest Democrats. We're gonna talk about the Smithsonian taking down
(07:59):
Trump's and Peace exhibit, and just generally like, what's what
all is going on there seems like there's like some
blinking signs of like authoritarianism, creeping authoritarianism. It probably should
be fine talk about Elon Musk his thoughts on women,
which he chose to share over the weekend, and then
(08:19):
in Act three, we're going to talk about radioactive walks
and we're going to talk about mountain dew conspiracy theories.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
And those are different stories.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Yeah, somehow barely all that plenty more. But first, Paula,
you we do like to ask our guest, what is
something from your search history that's revealing about who you are?
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I was looking up I was looking up jay Usso's
teeth before and after. Ja Usso is a WWE wrestler,
and it's so weird, Like I just keep seeing people
with veneers and it's I don't know if he has them.
Roman Reigns definitely has them. It's been SummerSlam this weekend
(09:01):
for all you WWE heads. But I just it just
throws me off to see like comic book teeth where
it's like straight and then there's like one little sparkle,
you know what I mean. I'm just I'm freaked out
by veneers. Is anybody else freaked out by veneers. I
think we've gone We've strayed too I swear I would
never say this. We've strayed too far from the British.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
We have strained too far, flow flu too close to
the sun. Yeah, wings of giant white teeth.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Also, like I get weirded out by like how they
make because they shaved down your regular teeth.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
Yeah, you have to sacrifice real teeth and then I'm like.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
What if they pop off and then you're it's like
apocalyptic and you're just running around with sharpened teeth like
like from the X Files, like what it just creats.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
Said now you are. Now it feels like there's a
new business opportunity which is like you know, basically like
utility veneers. So you could pop them out but pop
in like the.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Are you talking about?
Speaker 4 (10:03):
But I'm just saying. I'm just saying, like ones with
like something else on the on the business end, on
the side, you know.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
A little more like a tiny screw for like the
bottom of your laptop.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
Yeah yeah, literally yeah, Like one of them is like
a X key. One of them is like yeah, I say,
like when it's time, when you need something, I guess
the only one I can think of is very sharp ones,
but I'm sure more creative people. My point is, what
it's not that you've shaved on your teeth into stubbs
(10:38):
to only hold up, you know, the facsimile of teeth.
You've created a a platform on which you know, anything
can be built. And that's that's the Silicon Valley mentality
I'm bringing to this podcast.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Yeah, we can put bluetooth in our teeth.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Yeah, there you go. That and that is actually something
that's happened to me. That's they're actually the listening to
me teeth. That's I think a very common psychiatric So
somebody in having a mental health crisis, I feel like
that's a common thing that they're worried about, is the
government having implanted something in their teeth.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
But all of them still support Elon Musk.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Like the diagram, I will say, I feel like I
have been brainwashed by the whatever the Veneer thing is.
Like it just I'm always like it's so weird that
like at a certain point people just like go from
having normal teeth to having these giant white smiles. But
then when I like, after the white smile, like the
(11:43):
big like gleaming smiles, and then I go back and
like look at their normal teeth. I'm like, I'm like
that that person shouldn't be allowed on in movies.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
There's gotta be some in between, you know what I mean? Yeah,
do you like a little in between? You maybe like
a human growth hormone injected into your tiny baby teeth
from before something something where it's like not so fake.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
I mean, do you think this is It feels like
to me, like a plastic surgery situation. Like the cheap
veneers are the ones that are gleaming white, insane, but
secretly super rich people have like veneers notables enough imperfection
that they don't look insane, right, yeah, possible, tells.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Me no, I feel like maybe, but also like the
Veneers that I'm seeing are like rich people, you know
what I mean. Like you think Roman reigns can't afford.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
That's true, but like Biden has some of the most
obvious veneers, although he wasn't like one of the politicians
who made money off of being a politician, which is
de Trump never respected them, do.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
You think, but like, like because Roman rains, do you
think those are his like performance veneers? And it's just
like when you're in the ring, you do need to
pop and then he can walk around day to day
with normal looking I guess not with the like stay.
I think there is permanent They're like dude.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Yeah, they shave your teeth down and then glue on,
like permanent.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Expect your gadget situation where it becomes a part of
your body.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
And then it changes who you are. You just become
a star.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Yeah, talk for you, yeah man, but yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
That it is like a big you know. I remember
Jamie Loftus talking about people to shout out from the
very beginning of the podcast. Jamie Loftus is obsessed with
like s n L cast members and like you can
tell like that. Lauren has been like, Okay, you're going
to stick around and be a star when they get Veneers.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Yeah, like a year or two in.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Yeah, but I do think it. It's got my ass.
I'm in the clutch of big Veneer. Unfortunately, I regret
to regret to inform you what is something is underrated?
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Okay, this is gonna be. This is like me showing
how like straightedge I am. Oh yeah, I'm like I've
been microdosing edibles as in taking tiny, tiny bites of them,
and I'm like, because I have really bad restless leg
syndrome and so I like stay up at night and
(14:24):
like I'm kicking nothing's happening, not falling asleep, walking around whatever,
and like edibles have really helped me sleep. They've like
helped like with the pain, because it's like a it's
a it feels like pain and burning and discomfort. And
for the longest time, I was like, Oh, I just
gotta like not half caffeine and I gotta exercise and
blah blah blah, and it was still not working. And
(14:45):
then it's like, oh, I gotta treat this like it's
real pain. And the edibles have helped. So I'm like
rediscovering I've had them before obviously, but I'm like rediscovering
edibles as like a medicinal for medicinal youth.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
You guys heard about this weed stuff.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
I like how you're like like self medicating the dosage
using the nibble.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Masses tiny bites. This is my new restaurant, tiny bites
of edibles.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
So you're not like cutting it into quarters. You're just
doing like a little like.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
And very much like my mother with a recipe and
like and a pinch of this.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Of this. Always the best cooks, you know, so why
not the best users of edibles? Just you know, I
feel like the best cooks are just like I just
like kind of feel it in my bones. I've put
in enough salt.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
It feels are feeling the right texture. You know, that's right,
they're feeling seasoned.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Well, congratulate, I'm glad you found something to help. Yes, yeah,
make your legs. I think we're RESTful.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
It's also like giving my coming from like a brown family,
like getting on anti since took me in, like it
took me into my thirties, and I've had like depressions
since I was like eight years old. So I think
like giving yourself permission to treat your physical ailments as
you know, like serious things when they're not always outwardly noticeable,
(16:17):
is like a huge thing for like being an adult
and taking control of your life and stuff.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
I just wrote this argument into a script that I'm
very happy about, or just kind of like formalize this
in my head, which was that like my parents wanted
me to be a doctor so much for people who
do not believe in western medicine. Like they wanted me
to be a doctor, and yet they don't want any
actual medical treatment until it's like fucking yeah, that's literally
(16:48):
a tree is not real. Like they'll eat fucking herbs
instead of seeing, Like, you know, my dad told me
he got told by the Chinese doctor he's not allowed
to have red foods anymore, and it made me fucking crazy.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Get all the lobster out of the house.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
Yeah. Literally, I think they were like the doctor secretly
was like, this motherfucker eats too much crab. But he
just needed to tell him in a way that he
could believe, and so he told him a magic spell.
And it would be fine if they were magic spell people,
but they're also you must be a doctor people, and
that's maddening.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
It's actually the red in there that's getting to you.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
I have a joke about how like every Asian kid
is trying to become a doctor just to diagnose our
parents with mental illness, just to be like, no, you
aren't severely depressed. What the doctorate you paid.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
For is that.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
I won't believe it.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
I grew up Catholic and I was told my restless
leg syndrome was because my legs have a guilty conscience.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Oh, I thought it was going to be like they're possessed.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
That's fine. Yeah enough, if you're.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Liked your legs do what did your legs have to
confess to?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Yeah, I mean from having all this from being so
caked up? Yeah, what is something you think is overrated?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Okay? I came on here. I came on here only
a year ago, a year and a half, and I
was like, something that's underrated is rumbas. And you guys
were like, no.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
No, no, no, not disagree with you. We just said
wait and see wait, and you say. I was more
like hopeful. I was like, maybe you have a type
of maybe they've like made improvements that I was unaware.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
How Yeah, no I am. I have a rumba. I
attempt to use it, something goes wrong. I'm sweeping again.
I'm sweeping again.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
Oh my god. I can I just tell you, especially
because you have pets, that's you're describing the best case
scenario of something going wrong with the rumba. Yeah, because
the worst case is the worst shit you've ever seen. Literally,
it's so bad if you.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Have to monitor it because I don't trust.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Yeah, back to the future wheel tracks, except instead of flames,
it's dog shit going.
Speaker 4 (19:16):
I mean literally the amount of like the first time,
like two times I used the rumba, I had to
monitor it so closely that it truly was it would
literally be less effort to vacuum right, Like it's just
like like all tech things. It doesn't actually save anything
any like effort. And it probably made a map of
your house that it uploaded to the Rumba corporation. It
(19:39):
just needs to learn you're housing your habits more.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
It's really cool that you think I have a house
and not an apartment that's probably bought up by Black
Rock or whatever.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Blackrock already they have cameras.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
On the walls. I'm assuming I don't know. They're fighting
over it, the Ruma company versus Black Mo.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
They're like, actually, how they found Ben Laden He had
a rumba and it was scanning. So the rumba has
not It still gets stuck under things, and it's.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Still like the one brush keeps sticking and then it does. Yeah,
it's it's a lot, but I'm I don't know. I
hope that someday there will be some sort of improvement
where like I don't feel like I have to watch it,
and I also don't have to change out the parts
all the time. Yeah, the dust bag. Why can't it
detect the dustbag. I didn't do anything to the dustbag.
(20:32):
It's in the place where you're supposed to be, right.
If it can map my house, it can't see that
the dustbag is already fucking installed. At this point, I
feel like a dustbag.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
Not to be super pessimistic, but the people who own
robot companies have not thus far been interested in actually
improving anyone's lives. So it's just.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
In Wall Street, right, Yeah, great, it's going to mow
our lawns for us, then the nation's lawns for.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Can you imagine? I mean, the robot that takes out
your trash is literally going to be identical to having
like the FBI go through your trash every every day exactly.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
That's like living at home with my mom. I'm like,
she's she was constantly like aware of everything. I threw
out everything I did. You know.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
That is how they like actually actually study like that
is essentially what archaeology is or whatever, digging through people's trash.
That's that's all it is. It's a it's a whole science.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Just a just a bunch of freaks digging through the trash.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
That's all right, let's take a quick break, we'll come back,
we'll talk about some news. We'll be right back, and
we're back, and all right, let's talk about Democrats doing
(22:09):
a thing, because this is kind of exciting. The Texas
Democrats left the state of Texas so that Republicans could
not get a quorum for their jerrymanderin plan. This is
the plan that is like very transparently. I mean it's
just like Trump kind of doing the thing where he
(22:29):
like says the thing out. He's like just a simple
redrawing and we pick up five seats. Wow. Like he
just says, like the we're gonna do the chigging part,
which is like it is like part of the magic
of Trump is he just like stops trying to lie
about that stuff and it is just like say it straightforward.
But anyway, it's.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
Like dares someone to like give him a consequence and
that happens.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
I just love the fact that for lawmakers to get
anything done in the country, they have to fucking leave.
That's my favorite part. I'm doing more help by leaving.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Yeah, we are celebrating the Democrats for just leaving.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
By taking it by Ted cruising on a vacation.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
That's right. Yeah, so when Ted does it, it's bad.
But now these people are doing it and everyone's cheering
them on. What the fuck? But in objection to the
undemocratic gerrymandering, they have collectively fled to Illinois and it
appears to be like effective. I don't know like the
(23:32):
degree to which the Republicans are so mad about this,
And by the way, they might just all be like
in prison by the time you hear this, but as
of right now, the Republicans seem so mad. Yeah, it's
called the Democrat potential felons.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Potential potential.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
Everyone's a potential felon.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
What are you talking about it unless you're an actual
felon like Trump?
Speaker 4 (23:55):
That's true. I mean this is I will say, like,
this is not like going above and beyond. This is
just using a tool of procedure, just going to do something. Yeah, yeah,
this is so I Let let you know, let's this
(24:15):
is like actually using which they haven't been doing. They
haven't even been using the tools at their disposal, whereas
Republicans use many tools beyond their disposal. So it's still
not like, oh, we're finally fighting back. We they are
finally fighting back, but they're at least kind of doing something.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
I mean, I don't know. Corey Booker's been yelling a lot.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
So Corey Booker is going above and beyond in his
blood pressure, yelling yeah to give me the douche chills,
his God, above and beyond and just yeah.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
This, Yeah, this is the resistance we got, I suppose,
but Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
But yeah, I don't, I don't know. It's a they
do seem to go above and beyond when it comes
to like finding ways to ignore the message behind Theramum
Dannie's success, Yeah, everything else.
Speaker 4 (25:09):
It's well, he's the real enemy, of.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Course, right below and behind.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
But it is good that they're doing this. I guess
I should say this is necessary but not sufficient in
terms of doing something about Trump.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Such a mad pass answer, such a answer, what is
It's just.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
Like like you don't want to like shit on them
like I reflexively do, but it's not nearly enough.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Yeah. Yeah, they do like to take the high road.
They're addicted to taking the high road. So when they
do a thing that's just like, I don't know, maybe
this will stop it. It looks kind of silly, but
we don't give a fuck. Like that feels refreshing in
a way.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
That is, whenever they take any action that has any
like actual repercussions, you're like, Wow, what doesn't that should matter?
Speaker 2 (26:01):
You told them how to do that. I do just
like this quote from House Republican Representative Cody Voust defending
the initial redistricting that they're trying to pull off. He said,
this map was politically based, and that's totally legal, totally allowed,
and totally fair. It's totally prudent, totally right for Texas
to be able to respond and improve the political performance
(26:23):
of just like you can judge the fairs totally, totally,
totally Yeah, you can definitely just take whatever somebody when
somebody spikes their as a judgment with seven totallyes, I
feel like you're you can probably take that to the bank.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Can I also just say if I feel like if
any of us wrote the name Cody Voust in a
script as a clear proxy for the actual devil, we
would be told this is too on the nose.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
I know.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
I also like the Fustian bargain.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Ah, yeah, all right, So there's just been a couple
like Trump things where like there's one of his aides
was like, oh, that's so sick.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
That they're doing indefinite presidential terms in El Salvador. We
should do that here. Low lull, lull. There's also a
leaked document showing the New Republic published showing that they're
planning to this is just the start of their domestic
use of military, like what we saw in La recently.
That's they weren't like, oh, we maybe pushed it too
(27:36):
far there. They were like, that wasn't a mouse boush. Yeah,
And so just a much lighter but more concrete example
of that would be that there is a Smithsonian exhibit
on impeachments that have happened in US history called Limits
of Presidential the Limits of Presidential Power Exhibit, and it
(27:59):
used to be about all the impeachments that have happened
to sitting US presidents, including Bill Clinton, Richard Nixon, Andrew Johnson,
and Donald Trump. And one of those has recently been
removed for reasons that we well, first I'll let you
guys guess which one got removed.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
It killed itself, that's right.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Yeah, there had been a placard that was added that
references Trump's impeachment, but it was removed, and the Smithsonian's explanation,
I don't know, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna taint
your judgment on this, but you just tell me. So
they said the placard, which was meant to be a
temporary addition to a twenty five year old exhibition, did
(28:44):
not meet the museum's standards and appearance, location, timeline, and
overall presentation. It was not consistent with other sections in
the exhibit, and moreover, blocked the view of the objects
inside its case. For these reasons, we remove the placard.
We're not asked any administration or other government to remove
the content from the exhibit. So just I don't know
(29:06):
why you're even asking about that.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Yeah, we did it on our own. We did this
bad idea by ourselves.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Which might be true. But the Trump administration has been
attacking museums and historical parks and like taking firing people
and taking away funding. Yeah, so I don't know, I
haven't I haven't heard that. Well, some people are even
saying it's like ideologically motivated some of the stuff they're
doing on you.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
We don't have ideas.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
On the right, Yeah, we don't even know what that is.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
We're just we're just full of feelings.
Speaker 4 (29:45):
I'm I mean, I think I agree with you that
there's definitely a strong chance no one bought, no one asked.
This is just something that I feel like, this is
like happening so much, which is just like the people
in charge of institutions who are all center right to
right wing goons because you just don't get that type
of power without being right wing on some level, are
(30:07):
just like yeah, yeah, yeah, let's just do it.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
And they decide if you stay open. And they also
live in Washington, d C. Which is yeah, my night
at the museum franchise knowledge is correct. That's where Washington,
d C. Is where the Denng Smithsonian's at. That's true,
So that from.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Where it's all at, that's how I live my whole
life Night at the museum style rules, I.
Speaker 4 (30:32):
Mean, taking down Trump stuff. I'm sure it feels definitely plausible,
and it's just like, ah, why why bother? They're just
going to come after us, like let's just you know,
like like everyone and like sort of at at best
hiding their heads in the sand or cowering in fear.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Fear? Does that seem right?
Speaker 4 (30:51):
Is that a thing? Is that a thing? People?
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Do?
Speaker 4 (30:54):
You know what I mean? Though, I just like I
could easily see this not like like I could see
them telling the truth here, and yet it's still has
the same result. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Yeah, I don't know if like anybody explicitly needs to
be told, like how to follow along with the fascist regime?
Speaker 4 (31:07):
Yeah, fascist, It's really clear what to do most of
the time.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Yeah, things you do the thing that like you're told
to do in under capitalism, which is like be proactive,
you know. Yeah, yeah, make decisions ahead of time. You know.
It's like to try and please your boss, your the
ultimate boss. Yeah, you're doing fun things ahead of time,
(31:35):
you know.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
I try to an evangelical and you were right that
was the correct decision to go for the.
Speaker 4 (31:41):
Same same move. Yeah, yeah, all right.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
We haven't checked in with a We checked it with
Elon Muskat with regards to his culinary achievements last week,
but it's been a while since we checked in with
like how are things like with the lady? And Paul
found this one. He reshared a post on Twitter about women.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Only good only like super normal and chill and like
very respectful and whatnot. You know, Elon, I mean, he's
probably just reflecting on his like how he's interacted with
his compound harem of women or whatever. But he he
reshared a post on Twitter. There was a tweet that
(32:26):
said by Morgan m that said, why do liberal white
women hate white people so much? And then Musk responded
with They've been programmed to do so by their teachers
and the media. So he's like through learning about things
you know in life, and I'm like, okay, okay, I'm
(32:47):
yeah yeah. And then there was then somebody quote tweeted
him aptly named doctor insensitive said insightful, which I which
made me think at first that this was elon himself.
You know, it's like a different version. They're interesting.
Speaker 4 (33:01):
No, the writing is too coherent for yea insightful.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
Women are built to be traded to another tribe or
captured parenthetical and slide seamlessly into their new culture that
keeps them safe even though they are physically weak. Twenty
years after they are captured. They are the matriarchs to
enforce that culture. That is why women conform to the
dominant culture and thereby amplify that culture. In my opinion,
that is why Western women raised in anti white culture
(33:29):
are now amplifying anti white culture even though they are white.
They think that keeps them safe, and they are correct,
but only in the short short term. In the long term,
they will be forced to remember they are white.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
That it's so funny.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Better they are reminded of that by white men, because
the alternative is not so gentle.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
White men, you are needed.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
I love the idea of women like waking up twenty
years after marrying into something and just being like, I'm white.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Oh my god, how the fun How come nobody reminded me?
Speaker 4 (34:04):
Oh my god? I do like every sense. They lifted
the character limit for fucking blue? Is it blue? Checks
only get to write these like like stupid ass manifestos
on Twitter? I don't even know it genuinely is so funny,
Like even when you read this out loud, like how
shitty the writing is, Like shouldn't it hit your ear wrong?
(34:25):
How often you say culture and white in this and
like wouldn't a curious mind who wants to communicate simply
find a synonym? Right? It's really weird.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
I mean, just trying to associate white people with culture.
That's why they keep saying these.
Speaker 4 (34:41):
Two words over.
Speaker 1 (34:42):
White people have culture it's.
Speaker 4 (34:45):
Yeah, it's just like the writing is so like tenured.
I guess. I guess what I mean is it's unsurprising
that these are surely the same people that think chat
GPT writing is amazing.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
It's also like it's so funny that they're like women
are built like.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
A tesla or they're optimized.
Speaker 4 (35:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:05):
Also, the we're all just cave men and cave women
ideology is kind of weird coming from someone who like
males women he's never met his jizz and the male
and has like his entire relationship with them is like
through legal contract.
Speaker 1 (35:20):
That's just a survival of the Jesust.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Okay, yeah, so I don't know, always great to hear
from him and special survival of the I think that
was originally the name of the theory, and justin Timberlake
came through, was like drop the jizz, just make it fittest.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
This is going to ruin the tour.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
My god, I mean, listen, the one thing that is
good about Twitter has continually been and I guess also
truth social is like it is really nice to see
like Elon Musk is not just not smarter than you,
he's like one of the dumbest people that's ever lived wild. Yeah,
and it really is like, like, oh, if you think
(36:06):
this is worth saying like this, the thing probably just
right is worth saying out loud, you're stupid. And it's
like it's a I mean, yeah, it's just a.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Really interesting point.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Actually yeah really yeah, watching watching people like that rediscover
talking points from like five hundred years ago.
Speaker 4 (36:26):
Yeah, no, human rights genius, you're an you came up
with something a Nazi science just thought of. Good for you.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
Yeah, I don't even think they needed to be scientists.
Speaker 7 (36:39):
Well yeah, some of the some of the PhD in
Nazi science, the type of science that no longer exists,
not the not the rocket scientists America really appreciated their work.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
Yeah. Yeah, it's just I mean, like like he's he's
just a fucking weird moral on creep and like he
always has been and now we all know it. And thankfully,
I guess the bot situation also makes it nice because
you're like, Okay, there's such a limit to the number
of people that are like this, and yes they are growing,
(37:15):
but yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:16):
They have like somehow conflated the idea that if an idea,
if an idea was like is offensive, then like it
is true and was being suppressed only because it was
a fit must be Yeah, it must be true and
just like a piece of hidden information.
Speaker 4 (37:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
I feel like by the way, dynamic.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
Is so comedy is legal again if.
Speaker 4 (37:39):
You can't spot the logical fallacy of this, which is
that white supremacy is the dominant culture of the globe. Yes,
So like you're just wrong. Your premise isn'tcorrect. So the
rest of this is garbage.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
It's so funny that anytime somebody says something is anti white,
I'm like sick. I'll be there where we mean?
Speaker 4 (37:59):
Yeah, where is that?
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Where is the.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
Let's figure it out? Sounds like everyone's base.
Speaker 2 (38:07):
Let's take a quick break, we'll come back. We'll talk
radioactive wasps and mountain dew conspiracies, and we're back and
all right, I love this radioactive wasps hot wasps. So
(38:32):
the Department of Energy is out here, do it? These
are the jobs that DOGE is cutting. The Department of
Energy is out here finding radioactive wasp nests, decommission nuclear
facility in South Carolina.
Speaker 1 (38:47):
The most surprising part of the story was that the
Department of Energy still exists. For me, like that was
the most I was like, wow, we still got one.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
Well exists in this way.
Speaker 4 (38:57):
I mean, you'd assume there would be some version of
it that's like how much oil can we get out
of there? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
This is like the animal control section.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Right, how do we convert oil into a beverage that
we can sell to Americans?
Speaker 1 (39:11):
That would be in our next section about mountain dew.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
That's right, we'll convert it to the bottles that contain
the beverages. What if it was the actual thing inside
the plastic bottles. But yeah, so, A spokesperson for the
Department of Energy said the US Department of Energy is
managing the discovery of four WASP nests with very low
levels of radioactive contamination. The nests do not pose a
(39:35):
health risk to SRS workers, the community, or the environment. Yeah.
Nice try.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
It was like one hundred thousand dpm, which is significant.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
Yeah, it sounds high. Thought, I'm going to pretend like
I know that that's high.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
I mean when I looked at I don't know. I
honestly I have no idea. But like that plant was
making plutonium and tritium.
Speaker 2 (40:03):
During the cold weapons grade nuclear hell yeah, yea WASP destruction. Yeah,
it is there. It is swish. This episode's over, This
whole show's over. They found the nest near a tank
where nuclear waste was stored. They were summarily executed with bug.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
Spray, which is so fucked up, Like the amount of
like superheroes we could have gotten from those wasps.
Speaker 4 (40:28):
Yeah, we don't know that they got them all.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
Come.
Speaker 4 (40:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (40:34):
I like to think that one escaped and it's going
to be in the next marvel.
Speaker 4 (40:38):
I will say, I think our brains all think if
you get stung by that wasp, it transfers the radiation
to you, and I.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
Under Trump, that is a valid medical health care plant.
That's like basically bleach in your veins.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
Okay, it feels like it feels like the bigger dangers,
Like if you eat a wasp, right, you just don't
want to.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
I always think about that with like dogs, because they
always look really cute with their chubby cheeks when they
like get stung by bee from the inside.
Speaker 2 (41:07):
Is that the thing that happens so often that look.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
Beastings cheeks and they look like they got their wisdom
teeth out, Like.
Speaker 4 (41:16):
It's really cute, but it is.
Speaker 8 (41:21):
Very Some of them are allergic to to stings, because
beastings is also like a you know, a thing that
people do to their faces to like it's like skincare secret.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
What the fuck are we doing? Are you serious? Oh?
Speaker 7 (41:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (41:35):
I love? What is that?
Speaker 1 (41:37):
Why did they do that?
Speaker 2 (41:39):
I think plumping?
Speaker 1 (41:41):
It's always plumping.
Speaker 2 (41:42):
It's always the plumping. They seem to have like not
put a lot of effort to work with environmental biologists
to investigate, like what the radioactive contamination of living animals
looks like. We don't know how the wasp became contaminated.
We don't know what species of wasp wasn't We don't
know if they stung anybody and that person developed powers
(42:04):
that might be cooler than the wasp from the man universe,
just like as cool.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
We don't know how veneers came to be.
Speaker 2 (42:13):
Yeah, are your teeth glowing in the dark?
Speaker 4 (42:19):
Radiological waste? Oh my god? Yeah, it's so weird. What
also I do? I do kind of I am sort
of curious about the ship? Wait? Was it Deep Impact?
What's the one where they send What's which is the
one where they send ben Affleck to drill the media
or common arma? God? In is it? Is this a
(42:40):
situation where they got nuclear waste disposal or a WASP
team train them.
Speaker 2 (42:47):
To the WASP exterminators to handle nuclear or did they.
Speaker 4 (42:54):
Nuclear waste people to learn how to handle You don't
know your way around.
Speaker 2 (42:58):
The wasp, sir.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
The TV show Animal Control. No, it sounds like a
beautiful episode of it. It's like it's just an animal
control group of like people trying to deal with animals
or whatever on a daily basis.
Speaker 2 (43:11):
And the contigued episode and the second episode is just
like basically it's like it just turns translucent.
Speaker 4 (43:21):
I mean, I just I do think or my version
not my version of to me, the most exciting version
is a prickly team where no one gets along of
half nuclear waste disposal, halfers right, one wasp wasp, a
turncoat WASP.
Speaker 2 (43:41):
Nuclear physicists are like standing there watching the WASP exterminators
walk up and like the WASP exterminators like roll out
of a van with like budweisers and dudes like rolling
out and they say, well these guys, Yeah, that's an
actual line from Armagedon. By the way, they do say
it because because it's a you know, space thing and
(44:03):
there's the space movie the right stuff. Oh well, I says,
talk about the wrong stuff as the oil drillers come
up and they have to teach them how to be
astronauts instead of it's.
Speaker 4 (44:13):
What a insane Yes, this is good. I want to
hear about this team.
Speaker 1 (44:18):
I feel so bad for You're already writing a screenplay.
I feel so bad for bees because, like, first of all,
they're not as bad ass as wasps. Everybody knows that
wasps are like scarier for us to run into. Second
of all, they're all dying. Everybody's like, giving me some water,
and now they don't even get to be radioactive.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
Like it's very sad.
Speaker 1 (44:38):
Give them something pathetic.
Speaker 2 (44:40):
What's happened to our bees? They used to be They
used to be like the urban legend thing like in
the eighties the Africanized killer bees was like bees, Yeah,
they created a racist be conspiracy that was like it
was like the hottest way to get people freaked out
(45:01):
on local.
Speaker 4 (45:02):
It really was the way local news people said Africanized,
Like yeah, it was. It was so racist that it
was like just just say what you mean, dog, this
is getting ridiculous, all right?
Speaker 2 (45:17):
We do have to and I am it's not that
there anything's wrong with my boys. I'm just getting choked
up because we are going to now talk about mountain
dew and conspiracy theories, two things that are near and
dear to my heart. Over the past few months, there
have been a bunch of online conspiracy theories about what
is being repeatedly called a chilling online conspiracy theory because
(45:40):
I guess, like you like to drink mountain dew chilled,
and also only chill people drink mountain dew. That's not
true at all, all right, So basically people have noticed
the new mountain dew flavors have a tendency to predict
real world disasters. Now, first came out and then the
(46:02):
twenty twenty three Maui wildfires happened, Star Spangled Splash hit
stores before the collapse of the Francis Scott Keybridge in
Baltimore and others presumably I don't know, those two pretty
good people are like, okay, and then Code Red came out,
and when two thousand and one before the ultimate Code Red, okay.
Speaker 1 (46:29):
And then Baja blasted anybody talking about that one.
Speaker 2 (46:33):
So this one's this is where we I think the
way they're doing this is that like they're not actually
talking about things that came out like around the same time.
By the way, my dad is on the other side
wall just blasting a hose in two if you can
hear that.
Speaker 1 (46:50):
I love the Jersey Shore.
Speaker 2 (46:51):
The Jersey Shore just blasting hoses. So Baja Blast. Interestingly,
you might remember when oh wait that actually is oh yeah,
oh yeah, I remember when a hurricane hit the Baja
Coast of California not too long ago. It was a
once in uh once every one hundred and seventy years phenomenon,
(47:13):
and it couldn't be climate change that was causing. Now
it must be a global weather conspiracy launched by the
good people of Pepsi. Pepsi co that. The theory is
the Baja Blast was predicting that. But like Boja Blast
has been around for so many years, Like, yeah, it's.
Speaker 1 (47:30):
Also under in seventy though, dude, if you look at
the timeline and you shrink it, okay.
Speaker 4 (47:36):
On a geological scale, Baja Blast.
Speaker 9 (47:40):
Even ever, I love I guess what I love conspiracy
theories that pose it immense power being used and talked
about in this specific way, because.
Speaker 4 (47:56):
It's like, if you could change the weather, why the
fuck would you care about telling everyone? Via Mountain dew.
You should just tell the world that you ruled the
world now because you can control weather, which means fun
at all, right, right, But like just the time it
would take to develop all these like cryptograms, Like have
(48:19):
you ever tried to write a puzzle? It's really hard.
So like this is so much effort being put into
these little easter eggs for for why?
Speaker 1 (48:30):
But I could thousand see Lex Luthor doing this, do
you know what I mean? Like it's fucking evil nerd.
Speaker 4 (48:35):
Shit, Yes, you know, Lex Luthor.
Speaker 1 (48:38):
I'm in. I'm in on this.
Speaker 2 (48:42):
It is like wildly entertaining. I'm glad that I can
focus group test it because I was like, does this
just appeal to me? Because I like Mountain doing conspiracy theories,
but like these these are good conspiracy theories.
Speaker 1 (48:54):
It's like the Monster Energy drink. Do you remember that
video of that woman being like Monster Energy drink. There's
all these signs from the devil and like it's like
a really famous video of her talking about how like
the symbols of it or nuberlogy or whatever.
Speaker 4 (49:11):
Because just imagine from the other side, imagine being on
the Illuminati committee for creating little puzzles for the dumbest
TikTokers in the world to figure out, like why do
you are you in touch is it? Are you part
of the marketing department? Are you in touch with the
weather control.
Speaker 2 (49:29):
Writing this movie? The theory is that, like you have
one person who's on the board at the Illuminati who
like gets a weird, like perverse pleasure from like teasing
people with it and wants to draw attention to it.
Speaker 4 (49:46):
The Department of Funny Little Games.
Speaker 1 (49:48):
It's the it's like the it's a neo baby.
Speaker 4 (49:51):
It's right, You're right, it's Barren Alex Luthor.
Speaker 2 (49:56):
The yeah, I mean the long history of mountain dew
conspiracy theories. Obviously the yellow dye, which I didn't even
know that was a conspiracy theory. I'd just like kind
of taken that at face value as a as a
hazard of you know, like yeah, man, but I still
got the love of the game. Can't can't scare me away.
(50:19):
There's also like some in the nineties that specifically said
tropical fantasy mountain dew was laced with a secret ingredient
that would cause sterility and black men unbottled by the KKK,
and they were like flyers printed up and like spread
around cities about that, and then people were like, damn
(50:39):
Coke is really going above and beyond with their marketing efforts.
Speaker 1 (50:44):
But why does every conspiracy theory have to involve black people,
like the affriganization of the Lost. So whatever the.
Speaker 2 (50:53):
Mountain Dew fantasy, yeah, yeah, I mean it.
Speaker 4 (50:58):
The reason these all lined up is because mount Dew
is targeted towards young men, and so all of their
like flavor ideas have some sort of aggressive bend to them, right, yes,
And that's why I correspond, you can you can contort
it to fit with any disaster. And they are also blasts,
et cetera.
Speaker 1 (51:17):
And the insane clown posse drinks are related to socialism
in this lecture, that.
Speaker 4 (51:23):
Is, I have to say as a as a Michigan
person who actually has had more Faco Red Pop than
anyone needs to know about. I fucking love I love
I love like latching yourself to a niche regional brand.
Those Mountain do bullshit fucking fac O Red Pop.
Speaker 2 (51:41):
I mean, to a certain extent, Mountain Dew like. One
of the reasons this persists is that Mountain Dew actually like,
like there's a tweet at Mountain Dew. What's your favorite
Mountain Dew conspiracy theory?
Speaker 4 (51:53):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I guess Mountain Dew is a regional
brand if you consider twitch like its own sovereign the area,
which probably.
Speaker 1 (52:03):
That makes sense.
Speaker 2 (52:04):
By the way, do d e W directed energy weapons?
Speaker 4 (52:07):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (52:08):
I don't want to. I'm not gonna, you know, connect
all the dots for you do your own research.
Speaker 4 (52:13):
But listen to trending yesterday for how much we love
a weird acronym.
Speaker 2 (52:18):
That's they hid it in the acronym. It was there
all along, gave you all the calues, mister policeman, all
the calues. Hey, look, I got a lot of tables.
They've got like a lot of trippy commercials to which
other way that they're like, there's a commercial where a
Mountain Dew drinker looks in a mirror and discovers that
(52:40):
they're secretly a lizard person. Yeah, they know what they're
up to.
Speaker 4 (52:46):
Marketers, we love you.
Speaker 1 (52:48):
They start now this is the beginning of them like
actually causing human like disasters across the world because they're like,
it's marking.
Speaker 2 (52:55):
They love it.
Speaker 1 (52:56):
I don't care if it was an accident before, if
we're gonna We're gonna take down Sears Tower or something.
Speaker 4 (53:02):
I mean, it's like, if you're gonna do this, it
is just like name your suite of mountain new products,
like one for each like major region of the world.
Yeah right, and then append like a like a plausibly
deniable disaster thing to it.
Speaker 1 (53:19):
He's coming up mountain dew Florida sinks.
Speaker 2 (53:23):
Yeah what ITAs like it was brewed in a sink
in Florida.

So come through, Come through. Is there a work of
media that you've been enjoying?
Speaker 1 (54:46):
Okay, every time I looked disconnected during this episode, I've
been trying to find that TikTok where it's like three
guys pretending to be tech bros and they're touching grass
and it's just inspiring them to make like more dystopian
tech shit. Have you ever seen that?
Speaker 2 (54:59):
This about the grad Yeah, I have right here. Yeah,
God that we will link off to it in the footnotes. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
very footnotes. Yeah that is a great video. Imagine this
ship streamline. It's like what it like because tech guys
do use psychedelics. And then yeah, and there that they
(55:19):
come to look at earth.
Speaker 4 (55:21):
And just say what if instead of like a business
that already existed what if we did it through an
app and then went to literally the same business back
That's right.
Speaker 1 (55:31):
They're like, what if we what if we were the
middleman just throttling the necks of these people's bank. I
cannot download another app. I can't do it. I'm fucking old.
Stop making me download apps.
Speaker 2 (55:44):
I think it's from Ethan Mead Forever on Tiktoka. We
will share it in the footnotes. Andrew, such a pleasure.
Where can people find you? Follow you all that good stuff?
Speaker 4 (55:56):
I'll be number one. I think I'm back tomorrow if
I if I we're calling correctly, But yo, is this racist?
Is my podcast? I don't know. I'm trying to write
some fucking movies, so you hopefully look for those in
four years or whatever. The fuck? Uh? Yeah, yeah, is racist?
That's there?
Speaker 2 (56:16):
It is all right. Oh and is there a workimedia
you've been enjoying.
Speaker 4 (56:20):
Comedian and actor May Martin has a music album out
called I Am a TV and it is great. Oh yeah,
I would suggest getting on that. I've been listening to
it all week. It's really it's really quite good.
Speaker 2 (56:36):
Is it just like?
Speaker 4 (56:38):
Sorry, it's music? It use your music. It is not
jokey it's not joke songs, I guess I ultimately will
say I don't like it when people are talented at
more than one.
Speaker 2 (56:47):
Thing, So I know and like in different ways.
Speaker 1 (56:50):
But like very talented in multiple fields.
Speaker 4 (56:53):
Yeah, I don't know if you're It's one of those
things where like because May's voice is like I didn't think,
very distinctive, but when you hear them singing, it is
really like, oh, yeah, well this is great.
Speaker 2 (57:05):
Yeah, well that sounds great. You can find me on
Twitter at jack Underscore Bryan and on Blue Sky at
Jack ob the number one workI media I've been enjoying.
So last week I had a bombshell recommendation this movie Hereditary.
Speaker 1 (57:23):
I still haven't seen it. There's a girl from.
Speaker 2 (57:27):
It, and I was once like you yeah, and it's
just a cant recommend it enough.
Speaker 4 (57:35):
Really, I really enjoyed it. Sorry, it's very enjoyable. It's
one of those movies that's good. It's good. Why I
also understand not recommending it's very unpleasant, very unpleasant.
Speaker 2 (57:48):
So anyways, I watched Midsommar last week, which I hadn't seen. Also,
I'm gonna I'm gonna recommend that one. Another another hot
one off the like to find out about thinks?
Speaker 1 (58:01):
Can I say something that is ingrained in anti white culture?
There are some movies I look in I'm like, too
white and three hours of the whitest people whitening.
Speaker 4 (58:14):
This is why I didn't watch Oppenheimer. I was just
like I have for the same reason.
Speaker 2 (58:20):
I have a hard.
Speaker 4 (58:20):
Limit to the white prestige Oscar movie every year, and
I'm just like, I don't think I can do that.
Speaker 1 (58:26):
Yes, it's good, Yeah, I heard it's good. I'm friends
with someone who's in it. But I could. I'm like
having white people comment on the horrors they've done for
three hours.
Speaker 4 (58:39):
Just I'm just like, I can't.
Speaker 2 (58:41):
I can't. Yeah, you guys, he felt bad. There are
scenes in it where he feels bad.
Speaker 4 (58:46):
Oh, that actually makes sense.
Speaker 1 (58:49):
Does he cry at all?
Speaker 2 (58:51):
No? I actually.
Speaker 1 (58:54):
He didn't feel bad enough to cry.
Speaker 2 (58:56):
It just seems like vaguely freaked out by the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (58:59):
That's Killian Murphy. That's Killian Murphy on any given day,
that's the movie.
Speaker 4 (59:03):
It just seems like it's like six white guys smoking
cigarettes around a chalkboard.
Speaker 1 (59:08):
And I already watched I've already seen mad Men, So why.
Speaker 4 (59:12):
It's the same thing, right, kind of yeah, that is correct.
Speaker 2 (59:17):
You have absolutely gotten it is time for me to
uh superducer Victors saying it's time for me to move
on to bow is Afraid, which I've heard is a
real like. The first two are similar formulaically in a
way that I thought I thought worked, but was afraid.
Speaker 4 (59:36):
They're all ari ast ari asters. Aristor his new movie.
Speaker 1 (59:40):
I still have his like code name or what what
is it called?
Speaker 4 (59:46):
Ed Oh no, no, wait, no, no, these are all We're just
going down the chronology. Sorry, Aristor, but Eddington is his
new movie. I haven't seen it yet. I did ask
my you know, my friend who'd seen it. Does it
have the trademark ariaster very unpleasant violence part? And apparently
(01:00:07):
it kind of doesn't. Oh wow, which is weird. It's
kind of unnerving to think about. Yeah, I just wanted
to see some horrible, horrible shit.
Speaker 2 (01:00:15):
Anyway, I I'm here to recommend things very late, so
it's like kind of a useless recommendation, and also recommend
things that have very unpleasant moments that will make you
be like, oh, what the fuck is this a problem?
Speaker 4 (01:00:27):
Did we talk about? Bring her back? But it's good
bring Her Back. I think it's one of those things
that's good, that contains I mean, I'm not a huge
horror movie person, but it literally contains the single worst
thing I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (01:00:44):
On Yeah, okay, well then you haven't seen Terrifyer three.
Speaker 4 (01:00:48):
No, no, I've seen shit like that. It's not in that,
it's not campy. It's just the worst thing I've ever seen.
Oh man, I don't.
Speaker 1 (01:00:59):
At all am into horror, but like lately, because the
world is horror, I've been having a harder time like
watching I become like the girl who needs her boyfriend
to watch a horror movie because I'm so unsettled. So
I'm like someone needs to be in the room with
me that knows what's happening in the movie that I
(01:01:19):
can just like hide in.
Speaker 4 (01:01:21):
I say, I bring her back. Also, it's kind of
not exactly a horror It's kind of a supernatural thriller.
It's not like a jump scares movie. It's just very
matter of factly, this possessed kid does just the worst
thing I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (01:01:36):
No, yeah, wait, you mean like leaving in the middle
of a comedy show. They wouldn't.
Speaker 4 (01:01:47):

(01:02:15):
been listening to some music. Is there a song that
you think people might enjoy?
Speaker 4 (01:02:19):
I mean, I think I think my favorite song from
this May Martin album I'm a TV is called Big Bear.
It's just got very weird, charming lyrics in it that
I enjoyed. And the album, I guess is sort of
like alt country, queer alt country ish sort of vibes
that might be inaccurate. I just don't know music that well.
Speaker 2 (01:02:41):
But yeah, this song, Andrew, this is a rap album.
Speaker 1 (01:02:47):
Yeah that's the queer part.

expensive thing in the world? Or what is the sweetest

(04:32):
That was just the character must have been a joke.
It was a character I was doing where I was

to the monster and the sewer.

the monster in the Yeah.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
It's I thought you were going to say Bill Scar's guard,
but okay, it's me.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Bill. How are you guys doing.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I'm good. I guess this foster cat if anybody wants
to adopt it, it will rip my heart out. But
also it's probably what you should be doing, is it
is fostering cats, not foster filing every pet that I have?
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Yeah, what are the what are the actual odds that
this is just your cat?
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Now?
Speaker 1 (05:53):
I don't want to talk about. Well, that's like how
a lot of them happen because like there's just no
one taking in pets, and like there's there is one
of the okay, now she's rubbing her face on the laptop,
so the camera shaking. There's like a bunch of pets
that are now in it's weird to say they're pets
(06:14):
in the foster system, but they're in rescues and shelters
because people are getting deported. They're literally getting deported and
their pets are getting So it's like that's fine, Yeah,
I guess because their pets have asylum, but they don't
as human beings, Like what the fuck? You know?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Jesus Christ?
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Yeah, so adopt pets please. Otherwise everyone who fosters is
just gonna have all the pets forever.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Very sweet girl, is it? A boy.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
She's it's a girl. She's a's like six or seven
months and she's just like the cuddliest baby.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
So sweet, loves the camera, camera, stop.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Film, be a stage mom with this cat. She's still young,
she's still got it.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
So Hollywood does she really does.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
She's so cute.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
She's got blue eyes.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
She does love Well, that's the worst part. But other
than that very cute, we do not allow that.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Oh yeah, she was in the Sydney Sweeney commercial. She's
always like, I have the best genes and I'm like,
goddamn cat, I know. Oh my god, I got a
white dog. At one point, my friends would not let
me hear the end of it.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
They were like wow. They were like, wow, wow, you changed.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Interracial adoption.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Golden retriever. All right, Polly, we're gonna get to know
you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're
going to tell the listeners a couple of things we're
talking about. Were you talking about the Texas Democrats? They
appear to be like doing something which is noteworthy for
interest Democrats. We're gonna talk about the Smithsonian taking down
(07:59):
Trump's and Peace exhibit, and just generally like, what's what
all is going on there seems like there's like some
blinking signs of like authoritarianism, creeping authoritarianism. It probably should
be fine talk about Elon Musk his thoughts on women,
which he chose to share over the weekend, and then
(08:19):
in Act three, we're going to talk about radioactive walks
and we're going to talk about mountain dew conspiracy theories.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
And those are different stories.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Yeah, somehow barely all that plenty more. But first, Paula,
you we do like to ask our guest, what is
something from your search history that's revealing about who you are?
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I was looking up I was looking up jay Usso's
teeth before and after. Ja Usso is a WWE wrestler,
and it's so weird, Like I just keep seeing people
with veneers and it's I don't know if he has them.
Roman Reigns definitely has them. It's been SummerSlam this weekend
(09:01):
for all you WWE heads. But I just it just
throws me off to see like comic book teeth where
it's like straight and then there's like one little sparkle,
you know what I mean. I'm just I'm freaked out
by veneers. Is anybody else freaked out by veneers. I
think we've gone We've strayed too I swear I would
never say this. We've strayed too far from the British.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
We have strained too far, flow flu too close to
the sun. Yeah, wings of giant white teeth.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Also, like I get weirded out by like how they
make because they shaved down your regular teeth.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
Yeah, you have to sacrifice real teeth and then I'm like.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
What if they pop off and then you're it's like
apocalyptic and you're just running around with sharpened teeth like
like from the X Files, like what it just creats.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
Said now you are. Now it feels like there's a
new business opportunity which is like you know, basically like
utility veneers. So you could pop them out but pop
in like the.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Are you talking about?
Speaker 4 (10:03):
But I'm just saying. I'm just saying, like ones with
like something else on the on the business end, on
the side, you know.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
A little more like a tiny screw for like the
bottom of your laptop.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
Yeah yeah, literally yeah, Like one of them is like
a X key. One of them is like yeah, I say,
like when it's time, when you need something, I guess
the only one I can think of is very sharp ones,
but I'm sure more creative people. My point is, what
it's not that you've shaved on your teeth into stubbs
(10:38):
to only hold up, you know, the facsimile of teeth.
You've created a a platform on which you know, anything
can be built. And that's that's the Silicon Valley mentality
I'm bringing to this podcast.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Yeah, we can put bluetooth in our teeth.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Yeah, there you go. That and that is actually something
that's happened to me. That's they're actually the listening to
me teeth. That's I think a very common psychiatric So
somebody in having a mental health crisis, I feel like
that's a common thing that they're worried about, is the
government having implanted something in their teeth.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
But all of them still support Elon Musk.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Like the diagram, I will say, I feel like I
have been brainwashed by the whatever the Veneer thing is.
Like it just I'm always like it's so weird that
like at a certain point people just like go from
having normal teeth to having these giant white smiles. But
then when I like, after the white smile, like the
(11:43):
big like gleaming smiles, and then I go back and
like look at their normal teeth. I'm like, I'm like
that that person shouldn't be allowed on in movies.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
There's gotta be some in between, you know what I mean? Yeah,
do you like a little in between? You maybe like
a human growth hormone injected into your tiny baby teeth
from before something something where it's like not so fake.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
I mean, do you think this is It feels like
to me, like a plastic surgery situation. Like the cheap
veneers are the ones that are gleaming white, insane, but
secretly super rich people have like veneers notables enough imperfection
that they don't look insane, right, yeah, possible, tells.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Me no, I feel like maybe, but also like the
Veneers that I'm seeing are like rich people, you know
what I mean. Like you think Roman reigns can't afford.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
That's true, but like Biden has some of the most
obvious veneers, although he wasn't like one of the politicians
who made money off of being a politician, which is
de Trump never respected them, do.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
You think, but like, like because Roman rains, do you
think those are his like performance veneers? And it's just
like when you're in the ring, you do need to
pop and then he can walk around day to day
with normal looking I guess not with the like stay.
I think there is permanent They're like dude.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Yeah, they shave your teeth down and then glue on,
like permanent.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Expect your gadget situation where it becomes a part of
your body.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
And then it changes who you are. You just become
a star.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Yeah, talk for you, yeah man, but yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
That it is like a big you know. I remember
Jamie Loftus talking about people to shout out from the
very beginning of the podcast. Jamie Loftus is obsessed with
like s n L cast members and like you can
tell like that. Lauren has been like, Okay, you're going
to stick around and be a star when they get Veneers.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Yeah, like a year or two in.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Yeah, but I do think it. It's got my ass.
I'm in the clutch of big Veneer. Unfortunately, I regret
to regret to inform you what is something is underrated?
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Okay, this is gonna be. This is like me showing
how like straightedge I am. Oh yeah, I'm like I've
been microdosing edibles as in taking tiny, tiny bites of them,
and I'm like, because I have really bad restless leg
syndrome and so I like stay up at night and
(14:24):
like I'm kicking nothing's happening, not falling asleep, walking around whatever,
and like edibles have really helped me sleep. They've like
helped like with the pain, because it's like a it's
a it feels like pain and burning and discomfort. And
for the longest time, I was like, Oh, I just
gotta like not half caffeine and I gotta exercise and
blah blah blah, and it was still not working. And
(14:45):
then it's like, oh, I gotta treat this like it's
real pain. And the edibles have helped. So I'm like
rediscovering I've had them before obviously, but I'm like rediscovering
edibles as like a medicinal for medicinal youth.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
You guys heard about this weed stuff.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
I like how you're like like self medicating the dosage
using the nibble.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Masses tiny bites. This is my new restaurant, tiny bites
of edibles.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
So you're not like cutting it into quarters. You're just
doing like a little like.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
And very much like my mother with a recipe and
like and a pinch of this.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Of this. Always the best cooks, you know, so why
not the best users of edibles? Just you know, I
feel like the best cooks are just like I just
like kind of feel it in my bones. I've put
in enough salt.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
It feels are feeling the right texture. You know, that's right,
they're feeling seasoned.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Well, congratulate, I'm glad you found something to help. Yes, yeah,
make your legs. I think we're RESTful.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
It's also like giving my coming from like a brown family,
like getting on anti since took me in, like it
took me into my thirties, and I've had like depressions
since I was like eight years old. So I think
like giving yourself permission to treat your physical ailments as
you know, like serious things when they're not always outwardly noticeable,
(16:17):
is like a huge thing for like being an adult
and taking control of your life and stuff.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
I just wrote this argument into a script that I'm
very happy about, or just kind of like formalize this
in my head, which was that like my parents wanted
me to be a doctor so much for people who
do not believe in western medicine. Like they wanted me
to be a doctor, and yet they don't want any
actual medical treatment until it's like fucking yeah, that's literally
(16:48):
a tree is not real. Like they'll eat fucking herbs
instead of seeing, Like, you know, my dad told me
he got told by the Chinese doctor he's not allowed
to have red foods anymore, and it made me fucking crazy.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Get all the lobster out of the house.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
Yeah. Literally, I think they were like the doctor secretly
was like, this motherfucker eats too much crab. But he
just needed to tell him in a way that he
could believe, and so he told him a magic spell.
And it would be fine if they were magic spell people,
but they're also you must be a doctor people, and
that's maddening.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
It's actually the red in there that's getting to you.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
I have a joke about how like every Asian kid
is trying to become a doctor just to diagnose our
parents with mental illness, just to be like, no, you
aren't severely depressed. What the doctorate you paid.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
For is that.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
I won't believe it.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
I grew up Catholic and I was told my restless
leg syndrome was because my legs have a guilty conscience.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Oh, I thought it was going to be like they're possessed.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
That's fine. Yeah enough, if you're.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Liked your legs do what did your legs have to
confess to?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Yeah, I mean from having all this from being so
caked up? Yeah, what is something you think is overrated?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Okay? I came on here. I came on here only
a year ago, a year and a half, and I
was like, something that's underrated is rumbas. And you guys
were like, no.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
No, no, no, not disagree with you. We just said
wait and see wait, and you say. I was more
like hopeful. I was like, maybe you have a type
of maybe they've like made improvements that I was unaware.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
How Yeah, no I am. I have a rumba. I
attempt to use it, something goes wrong. I'm sweeping again.
I'm sweeping again.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
Oh my god. I can I just tell you, especially
because you have pets, that's you're describing the best case
scenario of something going wrong with the rumba. Yeah, because
the worst case is the worst shit you've ever seen. Literally,
it's so bad if you.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Have to monitor it because I don't trust.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Yeah, back to the future wheel tracks, except instead of flames,
it's dog shit going.
Speaker 4 (19:16):
I mean literally the amount of like the first time,
like two times I used the rumba, I had to
monitor it so closely that it truly was it would
literally be less effort to vacuum right, Like it's just
like like all tech things. It doesn't actually save anything
any like effort. And it probably made a map of
your house that it uploaded to the Rumba corporation. It
(19:39):
just needs to learn you're housing your habits more.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
It's really cool that you think I have a house
and not an apartment that's probably bought up by Black
Rock or whatever.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Blackrock already they have cameras.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
On the walls. I'm assuming I don't know. They're fighting
over it, the Ruma company versus Black Mo.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
They're like, actually, how they found Ben Laden He had
a rumba and it was scanning. So the rumba has
not It still gets stuck under things, and it's.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Still like the one brush keeps sticking and then it does. Yeah,
it's it's a lot, but I'm I don't know. I
hope that someday there will be some sort of improvement
where like I don't feel like I have to watch it,
and I also don't have to change out the parts
all the time. Yeah, the dust bag. Why can't it
detect the dustbag. I didn't do anything to the dustbag.
(20:32):
It's in the place where you're supposed to be, right.
If it can map my house, it can't see that
the dustbag is already fucking installed. At this point, I
feel like a dustbag.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
Not to be super pessimistic, but the people who own
robot companies have not thus far been interested in actually
improving anyone's lives. So it's just.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
In Wall Street, right, Yeah, great, it's going to mow
our lawns for us, then the nation's lawns for.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Can you imagine? I mean, the robot that takes out
your trash is literally going to be identical to having
like the FBI go through your trash every every day exactly.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
That's like living at home with my mom. I'm like,
she's she was constantly like aware of everything. I threw
out everything I did. You know.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
That is how they like actually actually study like that
is essentially what archaeology is or whatever, digging through people's trash.
That's that's all it is. It's a it's a whole science.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Just a just a bunch of freaks digging through the trash.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
That's all right, let's take a quick break, we'll come back,
we'll talk about some news. We'll be right back, and
we're back, and all right, let's talk about Democrats doing
(22:09):
a thing, because this is kind of exciting. The Texas
Democrats left the state of Texas so that Republicans could
not get a quorum for their jerrymanderin plan. This is
the plan that is like very transparently. I mean it's
just like Trump kind of doing the thing where he
(22:29):
like says the thing out. He's like just a simple
redrawing and we pick up five seats. Wow. Like he
just says, like the we're gonna do the chigging part,
which is like it is like part of the magic
of Trump is he just like stops trying to lie
about that stuff and it is just like say it straightforward.
But anyway, it's.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
Like dares someone to like give him a consequence and
that happens.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
I just love the fact that for lawmakers to get
anything done in the country, they have to fucking leave.
That's my favorite part. I'm doing more help by leaving.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Yeah, we are celebrating the Democrats for just leaving.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
By taking it by Ted cruising on a vacation.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
That's right. Yeah, so when Ted does it, it's bad.
But now these people are doing it and everyone's cheering
them on. What the fuck? But in objection to the
undemocratic gerrymandering, they have collectively fled to Illinois and it
appears to be like effective. I don't know like the
(23:32):
degree to which the Republicans are so mad about this,
And by the way, they might just all be like
in prison by the time you hear this, but as
of right now, the Republicans seem so mad. Yeah, it's
called the Democrat potential felons.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Potential potential.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
Everyone's a potential felon.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
What are you talking about it unless you're an actual
felon like Trump?
Speaker 4 (23:55):
That's true. I mean this is I will say, like,
this is not like going above and beyond. This is
just using a tool of procedure, just going to do something. Yeah, yeah,
this is so I Let let you know, let's this
(24:15):
is like actually using which they haven't been doing. They
haven't even been using the tools at their disposal, whereas
Republicans use many tools beyond their disposal. So it's still
not like, oh, we're finally fighting back. We they are
finally fighting back, but they're at least kind of doing something.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
I mean, I don't know. Corey Booker's been yelling a lot.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
So Corey Booker is going above and beyond in his
blood pressure, yelling yeah to give me the douche chills,
his God, above and beyond and just yeah.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
This, Yeah, this is the resistance we got, I suppose,
but Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
But yeah, I don't, I don't know. It's a they
do seem to go above and beyond when it comes
to like finding ways to ignore the message behind Theramum
Dannie's success, Yeah, everything else.
Speaker 4 (25:09):
It's well, he's the real enemy, of.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Course, right below and behind.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
But it is good that they're doing this. I guess
I should say this is necessary but not sufficient in
terms of doing something about Trump.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Such a mad pass answer, such a answer, what is
It's just.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
Like like you don't want to like shit on them
like I reflexively do, but it's not nearly enough.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Yeah. Yeah, they do like to take the high road.
They're addicted to taking the high road. So when they
do a thing that's just like, I don't know, maybe
this will stop it. It looks kind of silly, but
we don't give a fuck. Like that feels refreshing in
a way.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
That is, whenever they take any action that has any
like actual repercussions, you're like, Wow, what doesn't that should matter?
Speaker 2 (26:01):
You told them how to do that. I do just
like this quote from House Republican Representative Cody Voust defending
the initial redistricting that they're trying to pull off. He said,
this map was politically based, and that's totally legal, totally allowed,
and totally fair. It's totally prudent, totally right for Texas
to be able to respond and improve the political performance
(26:23):
of just like you can judge the fairs totally, totally,
totally Yeah, you can definitely just take whatever somebody when
somebody spikes their as a judgment with seven totallyes, I
feel like you're you can probably take that to the bank.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Can I also just say if I feel like if
any of us wrote the name Cody Voust in a
script as a clear proxy for the actual devil, we
would be told this is too on the nose.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
I know.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
I also like the Fustian bargain.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Ah, yeah, all right, So there's just been a couple
like Trump things where like there's one of his aides
was like, oh, that's so sick.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
That they're doing indefinite presidential terms in El Salvador. We
should do that here. Low lull, lull. There's also a
leaked document showing the New Republic published showing that they're
planning to this is just the start of their domestic
use of military, like what we saw in La recently.
That's they weren't like, oh, we maybe pushed it too
(27:36):
far there. They were like, that wasn't a mouse boush. Yeah,
And so just a much lighter but more concrete example
of that would be that there is a Smithsonian exhibit
on impeachments that have happened in US history called Limits
of Presidential the Limits of Presidential Power Exhibit, and it
(27:59):
used to be about all the impeachments that have happened
to sitting US presidents, including Bill Clinton, Richard Nixon, Andrew Johnson,
and Donald Trump. And one of those has recently been
removed for reasons that we well, first I'll let you
guys guess which one got removed.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
It killed itself, that's right.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Yeah, there had been a placard that was added that
references Trump's impeachment, but it was removed, and the Smithsonian's explanation,
I don't know, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna taint
your judgment on this, but you just tell me. So
they said the placard, which was meant to be a
temporary addition to a twenty five year old exhibition, did
(28:44):
not meet the museum's standards and appearance, location, timeline, and
overall presentation. It was not consistent with other sections in
the exhibit, and moreover, blocked the view of the objects
inside its case. For these reasons, we remove the placard.
We're not asked any administration or other government to remove
the content from the exhibit. So just I don't know
(29:06):
why you're even asking about that.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Yeah, we did it on our own. We did this
bad idea by ourselves.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Which might be true. But the Trump administration has been
attacking museums and historical parks and like taking firing people
and taking away funding. Yeah, so I don't know, I
haven't I haven't heard that. Well, some people are even
saying it's like ideologically motivated some of the stuff they're
doing on you.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
We don't have ideas.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
On the right, Yeah, we don't even know what that is.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
We're just we're just full of feelings.
Speaker 4 (29:45):
I'm I mean, I think I agree with you that
there's definitely a strong chance no one bought, no one asked.
This is just something that I feel like, this is
like happening so much, which is just like the people
in charge of institutions who are all center right to
right wing goons because you just don't get that type
of power without being right wing on some level, are
(30:07):
just like yeah, yeah, yeah, let's just do it.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
And they decide if you stay open. And they also
live in Washington, d C. Which is yeah, my night
at the museum franchise knowledge is correct. That's where Washington,
d C. Is where the Denng Smithsonian's at. That's true,
So that from.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Where it's all at, that's how I live my whole
life Night at the museum style rules, I.
Speaker 4 (30:32):
Mean, taking down Trump stuff. I'm sure it feels definitely plausible,
and it's just like, ah, why why bother? They're just
going to come after us, like let's just you know,
like like everyone and like sort of at at best
hiding their heads in the sand or cowering in fear.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Fear? Does that seem right?
Speaker 4 (30:51):
Is that a thing? Is that a thing? People?
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Do?
Speaker 4 (30:54):
You know what I mean? Though, I just like I
could easily see this not like like I could see
them telling the truth here, and yet it's still has
the same result. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Yeah, I don't know if like anybody explicitly needs to
be told, like how to follow along with the fascist regime?
Speaker 4 (31:07):
Yeah, fascist, It's really clear what to do most of
the time.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Yeah, things you do the thing that like you're told
to do in under capitalism, which is like be proactive,
you know. Yeah, yeah, make decisions ahead of time. You know.
It's like to try and please your boss, your the
ultimate boss. Yeah, you're doing fun things ahead of time,
(31:35):
you know.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
I try to an evangelical and you were right that
was the correct decision to go for the.
Speaker 4 (31:41):
Same same move. Yeah, yeah, all right.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
We haven't checked in with a We checked it with
Elon Muskat with regards to his culinary achievements last week,
but it's been a while since we checked in with
like how are things like with the lady? And Paul
found this one. He reshared a post on Twitter about women.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Only good only like super normal and chill and like
very respectful and whatnot. You know, Elon, I mean, he's
probably just reflecting on his like how he's interacted with
his compound harem of women or whatever. But he he
reshared a post on Twitter. There was a tweet that
(32:26):
said by Morgan m that said, why do liberal white
women hate white people so much? And then Musk responded
with They've been programmed to do so by their teachers
and the media. So he's like through learning about things
you know in life, and I'm like, okay, okay, I'm
(32:47):
yeah yeah. And then there was then somebody quote tweeted
him aptly named doctor insensitive said insightful, which I which
made me think at first that this was elon himself.
You know, it's like a different version. They're interesting.
Speaker 4 (33:01):
No, the writing is too coherent for yea insightful.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
Women are built to be traded to another tribe or
captured parenthetical and slide seamlessly into their new culture that
keeps them safe even though they are physically weak. Twenty
years after they are captured. They are the matriarchs to
enforce that culture. That is why women conform to the
dominant culture and thereby amplify that culture. In my opinion,
that is why Western women raised in anti white culture
(33:29):
are now amplifying anti white culture even though they are white.
They think that keeps them safe, and they are correct,
but only in the short short term. In the long term,
they will be forced to remember they are white.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
That it's so funny.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Better they are reminded of that by white men, because
the alternative is not so gentle.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
White men, you are needed.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
I love the idea of women like waking up twenty
years after marrying into something and just being like, I'm white.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Oh my god, how the fun How come nobody reminded me?
Speaker 4 (34:04):
Oh my god? I do like every sense. They lifted
the character limit for fucking blue? Is it blue? Checks
only get to write these like like stupid ass manifestos
on Twitter? I don't even know it genuinely is so funny,
Like even when you read this out loud, like how
shitty the writing is, Like shouldn't it hit your ear wrong?
(34:25):
How often you say culture and white in this and
like wouldn't a curious mind who wants to communicate simply
find a synonym? Right? It's really weird.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
I mean, just trying to associate white people with culture.
That's why they keep saying these.
Speaker 4 (34:41):
Two words over.
Speaker 1 (34:42):
White people have culture it's.
Speaker 4 (34:45):
Yeah, it's just like the writing is so like tenured.
I guess. I guess what I mean is it's unsurprising
that these are surely the same people that think chat
GPT writing is amazing.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
It's also like it's so funny that they're like women
are built like.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
A tesla or they're optimized.
Speaker 4 (35:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:05):
Also, the we're all just cave men and cave women
ideology is kind of weird coming from someone who like
males women he's never met his jizz and the male
and has like his entire relationship with them is like
through legal contract.
Speaker 1 (35:20):
That's just a survival of the Jesust.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Okay, yeah, so I don't know, always great to hear
from him and special survival of the I think that
was originally the name of the theory, and justin Timberlake
came through, was like drop the jizz, just make it fittest.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
This is going to ruin the tour.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
My god, I mean, listen, the one thing that is
good about Twitter has continually been and I guess also
truth social is like it is really nice to see
like Elon Musk is not just not smarter than you,
he's like one of the dumbest people that's ever lived wild. Yeah,
and it really is like, like, oh, if you think
(36:06):
this is worth saying like this, the thing probably just
right is worth saying out loud, you're stupid. And it's
like it's a I mean, yeah, it's just a.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Really interesting point.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Actually yeah really yeah, watching watching people like that rediscover
talking points from like five hundred years ago.
Speaker 4 (36:26):
Yeah, no, human rights genius, you're an you came up
with something a Nazi science just thought of. Good for you.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
Yeah, I don't even think they needed to be scientists.
Speaker 7 (36:39):
Well yeah, some of the some of the PhD in
Nazi science, the type of science that no longer exists,
not the not the rocket scientists America really appreciated their work.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
Yeah. Yeah, it's just I mean, like like he's he's
just a fucking weird moral on creep and like he
always has been and now we all know it. And thankfully,
I guess the bot situation also makes it nice because
you're like, Okay, there's such a limit to the number
of people that are like this, and yes they are growing,
(37:15):
but yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:16):
They have like somehow conflated the idea that if an idea,
if an idea was like is offensive, then like it
is true and was being suppressed only because it was
a fit must be Yeah, it must be true and
just like a piece of hidden information.
Speaker 4 (37:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
I feel like by the way, dynamic.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
Is so comedy is legal again if.
Speaker 4 (37:39):
You can't spot the logical fallacy of this, which is
that white supremacy is the dominant culture of the globe. Yes,
So like you're just wrong. Your premise isn'tcorrect. So the
rest of this is garbage.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
It's so funny that anytime somebody says something is anti white,
I'm like sick. I'll be there where we mean?
Speaker 4 (37:59):
Yeah, where is that?
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Where is the.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
Let's figure it out? Sounds like everyone's base.
Speaker 2 (38:07):
Let's take a quick break, we'll come back. We'll talk
radioactive wasps and mountain dew conspiracies, and we're back and
all right, I love this radioactive wasps hot wasps. So
(38:32):
the Department of Energy is out here, do it? These
are the jobs that DOGE is cutting. The Department of
Energy is out here finding radioactive wasp nests, decommission nuclear
facility in South Carolina.
Speaker 1 (38:47):
The most surprising part of the story was that the
Department of Energy still exists. For me, like that was
the most I was like, wow, we still got one.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
Well exists in this way.
Speaker 4 (38:57):
I mean, you'd assume there would be some version of
it that's like how much oil can we get out
of there? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
This is like the animal control section.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Right, how do we convert oil into a beverage that
we can sell to Americans?
Speaker 1 (39:11):
That would be in our next section about mountain dew.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
That's right, we'll convert it to the bottles that contain
the beverages. What if it was the actual thing inside
the plastic bottles. But yeah, so, A spokesperson for the
Department of Energy said the US Department of Energy is
managing the discovery of four WASP nests with very low
levels of radioactive contamination. The nests do not pose a
(39:35):
health risk to SRS workers, the community, or the environment. Yeah.
Nice try.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
It was like one hundred thousand dpm, which is significant.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
Yeah, it sounds high. Thought, I'm going to pretend like
I know that that's high.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
I mean when I looked at I don't know. I
honestly I have no idea. But like that plant was
making plutonium and tritium.
Speaker 2 (40:03):
During the cold weapons grade nuclear hell yeah, yea WASP destruction. Yeah,
it is there. It is swish. This episode's over, This
whole show's over. They found the nest near a tank
where nuclear waste was stored. They were summarily executed with bug.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
Spray, which is so fucked up, Like the amount of
like superheroes we could have gotten from those wasps.
Speaker 4 (40:28):
Yeah, we don't know that they got them all.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
Come.
Speaker 4 (40:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (40:34):
I like to think that one escaped and it's going
to be in the next marvel.
Speaker 4 (40:38):
I will say, I think our brains all think if
you get stung by that wasp, it transfers the radiation
to you, and I.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
Under Trump, that is a valid medical health care plant.
That's like basically bleach in your veins.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
Okay, it feels like it feels like the bigger dangers,
Like if you eat a wasp, right, you just don't
want to.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
I always think about that with like dogs, because they
always look really cute with their chubby cheeks when they
like get stung by bee from the inside.
Speaker 2 (41:07):
Is that the thing that happens so often that look.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
Beastings cheeks and they look like they got their wisdom
teeth out, Like.
Speaker 4 (41:16):
It's really cute, but it is.
Speaker 8 (41:21):
Very Some of them are allergic to to stings, because
beastings is also like a you know, a thing that
people do to their faces to like it's like skincare secret.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
What the fuck are we doing? Are you serious? Oh?
Speaker 7 (41:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (41:35):
I love? What is that?
Speaker 1 (41:37):
Why did they do that?
Speaker 2 (41:39):
I think plumping?
Speaker 1 (41:41):
It's always plumping.
Speaker 2 (41:42):
It's always the plumping. They seem to have like not
put a lot of effort to work with environmental biologists
to investigate, like what the radioactive contamination of living animals
looks like. We don't know how the wasp became contaminated.
We don't know what species of wasp wasn't We don't
know if they stung anybody and that person developed powers
(42:04):
that might be cooler than the wasp from the man universe,
just like as cool.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
We don't know how veneers came to be.
Speaker 2 (42:13):
Yeah, are your teeth glowing in the dark?
Speaker 4 (42:19):
Radiological waste? Oh my god? Yeah, it's so weird. What
also I do? I do kind of I am sort
of curious about the ship? Wait? Was it Deep Impact?
What's the one where they send What's which is the
one where they send ben Affleck to drill the media
or common arma? God? In is it? Is this a
(42:40):
situation where they got nuclear waste disposal or a WASP
team train them.
Speaker 2 (42:47):
To the WASP exterminators to handle nuclear or did they.
Speaker 4 (42:54):
Nuclear waste people to learn how to handle You don't
know your way around.
Speaker 2 (42:58):
The wasp, sir.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
The TV show Animal Control. No, it sounds like a
beautiful episode of it. It's like it's just an animal
control group of like people trying to deal with animals
or whatever on a daily basis.
Speaker 2 (43:11):
And the contigued episode and the second episode is just
like basically it's like it just turns translucent.
Speaker 4 (43:21):
I mean, I just I do think or my version
not my version of to me, the most exciting version
is a prickly team where no one gets along of
half nuclear waste disposal, halfers right, one wasp wasp, a
turncoat WASP.
Speaker 2 (43:41):
Nuclear physicists are like standing there watching the WASP exterminators
walk up and like the WASP exterminators like roll out
of a van with like budweisers and dudes like rolling
out and they say, well these guys, Yeah, that's an
actual line from Armagedon. By the way, they do say
it because because it's a you know, space thing and
(44:03):
there's the space movie the right stuff. Oh well, I says,
talk about the wrong stuff as the oil drillers come
up and they have to teach them how to be
astronauts instead of it's.
Speaker 4 (44:13):
What a insane Yes, this is good. I want to
hear about this team.
Speaker 1 (44:18):
I feel so bad for You're already writing a screenplay.
I feel so bad for bees because, like, first of all,
they're not as bad ass as wasps. Everybody knows that
wasps are like scarier for us to run into. Second
of all, they're all dying. Everybody's like, giving me some water,
and now they don't even get to be radioactive.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
Like it's very sad.
Speaker 1 (44:38):
Give them something pathetic.
Speaker 2 (44:40):
What's happened to our bees? They used to be They
used to be like the urban legend thing like in
the eighties the Africanized killer bees was like bees, Yeah,
they created a racist be conspiracy that was like it
was like the hottest way to get people freaked out
(45:01):
on local.
Speaker 4 (45:02):
It really was the way local news people said Africanized,
Like yeah, it was. It was so racist that it
was like just just say what you mean, dog, this
is getting ridiculous, all right?
Speaker 2 (45:17):
We do have to and I am it's not that
there anything's wrong with my boys. I'm just getting choked
up because we are going to now talk about mountain
dew and conspiracy theories, two things that are near and
dear to my heart. Over the past few months, there
have been a bunch of online conspiracy theories about what
is being repeatedly called a chilling online conspiracy theory because
(45:40):
I guess, like you like to drink mountain dew chilled,
and also only chill people drink mountain dew. That's not
true at all, all right, So basically people have noticed
the new mountain dew flavors have a tendency to predict
real world disasters. Now, first came out and then the
(46:02):
twenty twenty three Maui wildfires happened, Star Spangled Splash hit
stores before the collapse of the Francis Scott Keybridge in
Baltimore and others presumably I don't know, those two pretty
good people are like, okay, and then Code Red came out,
and when two thousand and one before the ultimate Code Red, okay.
Speaker 1 (46:29):
And then Baja blasted anybody talking about that one.
Speaker 2 (46:33):
So this one's this is where we I think the
way they're doing this is that like they're not actually
talking about things that came out like around the same time.
By the way, my dad is on the other side
wall just blasting a hose in two if you can
hear that.
Speaker 1 (46:50):
I love the Jersey Shore.
Speaker 2 (46:51):
The Jersey Shore just blasting hoses. So Baja Blast. Interestingly,
you might remember when oh wait that actually is oh yeah,
oh yeah, I remember when a hurricane hit the Baja
Coast of California not too long ago. It was a
once in uh once every one hundred and seventy years phenomenon,
(47:13):
and it couldn't be climate change that was causing. Now
it must be a global weather conspiracy launched by the
good people of Pepsi. Pepsi co that. The theory is
the Baja Blast was predicting that. But like Boja Blast
has been around for so many years, Like, yeah, it's.
Speaker 1 (47:30):
Also under in seventy though, dude, if you look at
the timeline and you shrink it, okay.
Speaker 4 (47:36):
On a geological scale, Baja Blast.
Speaker 9 (47:40):
Even ever, I love I guess what I love conspiracy
theories that pose it immense power being used and talked
about in this specific way, because.
Speaker 4 (47:56):
It's like, if you could change the weather, why the
fuck would you care about telling everyone? Via Mountain dew.
You should just tell the world that you ruled the
world now because you can control weather, which means fun
at all, right, right, But like just the time it
would take to develop all these like cryptograms, Like have
(48:19):
you ever tried to write a puzzle? It's really hard.
So like this is so much effort being put into
these little easter eggs for for why?
Speaker 1 (48:30):
But I could thousand see Lex Luthor doing this, do
you know what I mean? Like it's fucking evil nerd.
Speaker 4 (48:35):
Shit, Yes, you know, Lex Luthor.
Speaker 1 (48:38):
I'm in. I'm in on this.
Speaker 2 (48:42):
It is like wildly entertaining. I'm glad that I can
focus group test it because I was like, does this
just appeal to me? Because I like Mountain doing conspiracy theories,
but like these these are good conspiracy theories.
Speaker 1 (48:54):
It's like the Monster Energy drink. Do you remember that
video of that woman being like Monster Energy drink. There's
all these signs from the devil and like it's like
a really famous video of her talking about how like
the symbols of it or nuberlogy or whatever.
Speaker 4 (49:11):
Because just imagine from the other side, imagine being on
the Illuminati committee for creating little puzzles for the dumbest
TikTokers in the world to figure out, like why do
you are you in touch is it? Are you part
of the marketing department? Are you in touch with the
weather control.
Speaker 2 (49:29):
Writing this movie? The theory is that, like you have
one person who's on the board at the Illuminati who
like gets a weird, like perverse pleasure from like teasing
people with it and wants to draw attention to it.
Speaker 4 (49:46):
The Department of Funny Little Games.
Speaker 1 (49:48):
It's the it's like the it's a neo baby.
Speaker 4 (49:51):
It's right, You're right, it's Barren Alex Luthor.
Speaker 2 (49:56):
The yeah, I mean the long history of mountain dew
conspiracy theories. Obviously the yellow dye, which I didn't even
know that was a conspiracy theory. I'd just like kind
of taken that at face value as a as a
hazard of you know, like yeah, man, but I still
got the love of the game. Can't can't scare me away.
(50:19):
There's also like some in the nineties that specifically said
tropical fantasy mountain dew was laced with a secret ingredient
that would cause sterility and black men unbottled by the KKK,
and they were like flyers printed up and like spread
around cities about that, and then people were like, damn
(50:39):
Coke is really going above and beyond with their marketing efforts.
Speaker 1 (50:44):
But why does every conspiracy theory have to involve black people,
like the affriganization of the Lost. So whatever the.
Speaker 2 (50:53):
Mountain Dew fantasy, yeah, yeah, I mean it.
Speaker 4 (50:58):
The reason these all lined up is because mount Dew
is targeted towards young men, and so all of their
like flavor ideas have some sort of aggressive bend to them, right, yes,
And that's why I correspond, you can you can contort
it to fit with any disaster. And they are also blasts,
et cetera.
Speaker 1 (51:17):
And the insane clown posse drinks are related to socialism
in this lecture, that.
Speaker 4 (51:23):
Is, I have to say as a as a Michigan
person who actually has had more Faco Red Pop than
anyone needs to know about. I fucking love I love
I love like latching yourself to a niche regional brand.
Those Mountain do bullshit fucking fac O Red Pop.
Speaker 2 (51:41):
I mean, to a certain extent, Mountain Dew like. One
of the reasons this persists is that Mountain Dew actually like,
like there's a tweet at Mountain Dew. What's your favorite
Mountain Dew conspiracy theory?
Speaker 4 (51:53):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I guess Mountain Dew is a regional
brand if you consider twitch like its own sovereign the area,
which probably.
Speaker 1 (52:03):
That makes sense.
Speaker 2 (52:04):
By the way, do d e W directed energy weapons?
Speaker 4 (52:07):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (52:08):
I don't want to. I'm not gonna, you know, connect
all the dots for you do your own research.
Speaker 4 (52:13):
But listen to trending yesterday for how much we love
a weird acronym.
Speaker 2 (52:18):
That's they hid it in the acronym. It was there
all along, gave you all the calues, mister policeman, all
the calues. Hey, look, I got a lot of tables.
They've got like a lot of trippy commercials to which
other way that they're like, there's a commercial where a
Mountain Dew drinker looks in a mirror and discovers that
(52:40):
they're secretly a lizard person. Yeah, they know what they're
up to.
Speaker 4 (52:46):
Marketers, we love you.
Speaker 1 (52:48):
They start now this is the beginning of them like
actually causing human like disasters across the world because they're like,
it's marking.
Speaker 2 (52:55):
They love it.
Speaker 1 (52:56):
I don't care if it was an accident before, if
we're gonna We're gonna take down Sears Tower or something.
Speaker 4 (53:02):
I mean, it's like, if you're gonna do this, it
is just like name your suite of mountain new products,
like one for each like major region of the world.
Yeah right, and then append like a like a plausibly
deniable disaster thing to it.
Speaker 1 (53:19):
He's coming up mountain dew Florida sinks.
Speaker 2 (53:23):
Yeah what ITAs like it was brewed in a sink
in Florida.
Speaker 1 (53:29):
Have a picture of Anderson Cooper in the rain?
Speaker 2 (53:34):
Well, Paula, be such a pleasure having you as always
on the daily zeitgeist? Where can people find you? Follow you,
hear you all that good stuff?
Speaker 1 (53:44):
You can find me at Paula Beganalan p A L
l A B I g U n A l A
N everywhere. I do have the monthly comedy show Facial
Recognition Comedy at the Comedy Store. I'm also like accidentally
on an improv team at the pac Theater.
Speaker 2 (54:02):
I'll check that out. How did that happen? I don't.
Speaker 1 (54:04):
It's a whole thing. My whole team was supposed to
audition that I'm the only one that ended up on
a team out of my old team. It's a it's
a whole thing. And then also I'll be opening up
for Mohanned el Sheky in southern California, coming up in
a cup in a few weeks, I think the nineteenth
through the twenty. First he has some shows, and then yeah,
(54:28):
I'm just gonna be bobbing around doing shows, trying to
sell tickets, you know, getting accumulating credit card debt like
the rest of my peers.
Speaker 2 (54:41):
So come through, Come through. Is there a work of
media that you've been enjoying?
Speaker 1 (54:46):
Okay, every time I looked disconnected during this episode, I've
been trying to find that TikTok where it's like three
guys pretending to be tech bros and they're touching grass
and it's just inspiring them to make like more dystopian
tech shit. Have you ever seen that?
Speaker 2 (54:59):
This about the grad Yeah, I have right here. Yeah,
God that we will link off to it in the footnotes. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
very footnotes. Yeah that is a great video. Imagine this
ship streamline. It's like what it like because tech guys
do use psychedelics. And then yeah, and there that they
(55:19):
come to look at earth.
Speaker 4 (55:21):
And just say what if instead of like a business
that already existed what if we did it through an
app and then went to literally the same business back
That's right.
Speaker 1 (55:31):
They're like, what if we what if we were the
middleman just throttling the necks of these people's bank. I
cannot download another app. I can't do it. I'm fucking old.
Stop making me download apps.
Speaker 2 (55:44):
I think it's from Ethan Mead Forever on Tiktoka. We
will share it in the footnotes. Andrew, such a pleasure.
Where can people find you? Follow you all that good stuff?
Speaker 4 (55:56):
I'll be number one. I think I'm back tomorrow if
I if I we're calling correctly, But yo, is this racist?
Is my podcast? I don't know. I'm trying to write
some fucking movies, so you hopefully look for those in
four years or whatever. The fuck? Uh? Yeah, yeah, is racist?
That's there?
Speaker 2 (56:16):
It is all right. Oh and is there a workimedia
you've been enjoying.
Speaker 4 (56:20):
Comedian and actor May Martin has a music album out
called I Am a TV and it is great. Oh yeah,
I would suggest getting on that. I've been listening to
it all week. It's really it's really quite good.
Speaker 2 (56:36):
Is it just like?
Speaker 4 (56:38):
Sorry, it's music? It use your music. It is not
jokey it's not joke songs, I guess I ultimately will
say I don't like it when people are talented at
more than one.
Speaker 2 (56:47):
Thing, So I know and like in different ways.
Speaker 1 (56:50):
But like very talented in multiple fields.
Speaker 4 (56:53):
Yeah, I don't know if you're It's one of those
things where like because May's voice is like I didn't think,
very distinctive, but when you hear them singing, it is
really like, oh, yeah, well this is great.
Speaker 2 (57:05):
Yeah, well that sounds great. You can find me on
Twitter at jack Underscore Bryan and on Blue Sky at
Jack ob the number one workI media I've been enjoying.
So last week I had a bombshell recommendation this movie Hereditary.
Speaker 1 (57:23):
I still haven't seen it. There's a girl from.
Speaker 2 (57:27):
It, and I was once like you yeah, and it's
just a cant recommend it enough.
Speaker 4 (57:35):
Really, I really enjoyed it. Sorry, it's very enjoyable. It's
one of those movies that's good. It's good. Why I
also understand not recommending it's very unpleasant, very unpleasant.
Speaker 2 (57:48):
So anyways, I watched Midsommar last week, which I hadn't seen. Also,
I'm gonna I'm gonna recommend that one. Another another hot
one off the like to find out about thinks?
Speaker 1 (58:01):
Can I say something that is ingrained in anti white culture?
There are some movies I look in I'm like, too
white and three hours of the whitest people whitening.
Speaker 4 (58:14):
This is why I didn't watch Oppenheimer. I was just
like I have for the same reason.
Speaker 2 (58:20):
I have a hard.
Speaker 4 (58:20):
Limit to the white prestige Oscar movie every year, and
I'm just like, I don't think I can do that.
Speaker 1 (58:26):
Yes, it's good, Yeah, I heard it's good. I'm friends
with someone who's in it. But I could. I'm like
having white people comment on the horrors they've done for
three hours.
Speaker 4 (58:39):
Just I'm just like, I can't.
Speaker 2 (58:41):
I can't. Yeah, you guys, he felt bad. There are
scenes in it where he feels bad.
Speaker 4 (58:46):
Oh, that actually makes sense.
Speaker 1 (58:49):
Does he cry at all?
Speaker 2 (58:51):
No? I actually.
Speaker 1 (58:54):
He didn't feel bad enough to cry.
Speaker 2 (58:56):
It just seems like vaguely freaked out by the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (58:59):
That's Killian Murphy. That's Killian Murphy on any given day,
that's the movie.
Speaker 4 (59:03):
It just seems like it's like six white guys smoking
cigarettes around a chalkboard.
Speaker 1 (59:08):
And I already watched I've already seen mad Men, So why.
Speaker 4 (59:12):
It's the same thing, right, kind of yeah, that is correct.
Speaker 2 (59:17):
You have absolutely gotten it is time for me to
uh superducer Victors saying it's time for me to move
on to bow is Afraid, which I've heard is a
real like. The first two are similar formulaically in a
way that I thought I thought worked, but was afraid.
Speaker 4 (59:36):
They're all ari ast ari asters. Aristor his new movie.
Speaker 1 (59:40):
I still have his like code name or what what
is it called?
Speaker 4 (59:46):
Ed Oh no, no, wait, no, no, these are all We're just
going down the chronology. Sorry, Aristor, but Eddington is his
new movie. I haven't seen it yet. I did ask
my you know, my friend who'd seen it. Does it
have the trademark ariaster very unpleasant violence part? And apparently
(01:00:07):
it kind of doesn't. Oh wow, which is weird. It's
kind of unnerving to think about. Yeah, I just wanted
to see some horrible, horrible shit.
Speaker 2 (01:00:15):
Anyway, I I'm here to recommend things very late, so
it's like kind of a useless recommendation, and also recommend
things that have very unpleasant moments that will make you
be like, oh, what the fuck is this a problem?
Speaker 4 (01:00:27):
Did we talk about? Bring her back? But it's good
bring Her Back. I think it's one of those things
that's good, that contains I mean, I'm not a huge
horror movie person, but it literally contains the single worst
thing I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (01:00:44):
On Yeah, okay, well then you haven't seen Terrifyer three.
Speaker 4 (01:00:48):
No, no, I've seen shit like that. It's not in that,
it's not campy. It's just the worst thing I've ever seen.
Oh man, I don't.
Speaker 1 (01:00:59):
At all am into horror, but like lately, because the
world is horror, I've been having a harder time like
watching I become like the girl who needs her boyfriend
to watch a horror movie because I'm so unsettled. So
I'm like someone needs to be in the room with
me that knows what's happening in the movie that I
(01:01:19):
can just like hide in.
Speaker 4 (01:01:21):
I say, I bring her back. Also, it's kind of
not exactly a horror It's kind of a supernatural thriller.
It's not like a jump scares movie. It's just very
matter of factly, this possessed kid does just the worst
thing I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (01:01:36):
No, yeah, wait, you mean like leaving in the middle
of a comedy show. They wouldn't.
Speaker 4 (01:01:47):
I already did my time I'm out.

been listening to some music. Is there a song that
you think people might enjoy?
Speaker 4 (01:02:19):
I mean, I think I think my favorite song from
this May Martin album I'm a TV is called Big Bear.
It's just got very weird, charming lyrics in it that
I enjoyed. And the album, I guess is sort of
like alt country, queer alt country ish sort of vibes
that might be inaccurate. I just don't know music that well.
Speaker 2 (01:02:41):
But yeah, this song, Andrew, this is a rap album.
Speaker 1 (01:02:47):
Yeah that's the queer part.
