(01:57):
can we read mulligan? Can we do that again? I
start high? Do you think what in your mind? What
were you doing? I was about to do a voice,
and then my brain was like, no, don't. That's not
a good way to start off a podcast. We will
redo this if you come in fully committed to the
voice you wanted to do. There was no it was
all improv It was whatever wherever. How do you change

(02:20):
your wherever? My gullet landed wherever whever. Yeah, that's where

It's important, Andy, We're thrilled with the start. How many
episodes is this later from my last appearance? Probably five?
Who knows, I don't even know. Tillion miles. How many

(02:43):
episodes have we ever done? Don zero episodes? We done
a few, though we had to can those. That would
be great if you guys did. We just had muppets
in studio but didn't take video of it. It was
just for our own purposes. I pitch you something, you
guys get Jim Henson Studios on board, and they do
puppet versions of you. And they every day they do

(03:05):
a puppet version. They just take your audio and do
a puppet version. I'd love that. We tried to work
with them, but they wouldn't adhere to our strict drug policy.
They would not that. They were like, honey, you don't
have them uppet money. That's right, right? Who shots fired?
What was the drug policy that they had to take
lexapro exactly? We just needed a little bit of eaven keel. No.

(03:28):
They I feel like everybody who works there probably still
does drugs, smokes dope, you know that lot is very interesting, Yeah,
very whimsical and like you can feel that a lot
used to go on there. Yeah yeah yeah at Henson Studios. Uh.
Did you guys remember that there was like a a

(03:49):
O L sent mail sound effect at the beginning of
public service announcement from the Black album? What there's like
a like the sound of a plane to taking off? Um? Anyways,
which blackout? Are you sure that's what it sounds like
to me? I don't know, maybe maybe not. Uh. Anyways,
Glad stopped everything to stop the presses for that one.

(04:13):
Stop the presses, Andy, We're going to get to know
you a bit better. And the top of that tune,
why does the word smell like you've got mail? Yes? Okay, sorry,
we're gonna tell the listeners what we're talking about today.

(04:34):
That's what we're gonna go. Let's do that, uh, and
then we're going to get to know you a little
bit better. In a moment, Lebron, we take all of
our geopolitical cues from him, and therefore we are announcing,
uh that we're a part of we stand with China today.
Thank you Ron for yes Uh no, just the wackiest
of wax statements from Lebron. We're going to ask why,

(04:57):
ask what he thought he was saying. Uh, you're going
to check in with the whistleblower scandal. We're going to
look at our new American international policy, our international relations,
foreign policy. I think that's what rumbling. Uh. And who's
a fan. Who's a fan who likes late stage imperial collapse. Uh,

(05:22):
we're gonna talk about who Moody's is picking in the
upcoming election. Uh. We're gonna talk about Facebook being a
right wing company who ruined the Internet and reality. Yeah,
of course Taco Bell has recalled tanded beef. Oh god,
we just have to get we have. It's our responsibility

(05:44):
for the amount of taco about we talk about. We
gotta let you know if your meats could be at risk.
Find out what kind of shavings they found in the
beetle is like a like Sea level. Oh no, I
was gonna was gonna go with like Fish, one of
those bands. Yeah, I feel like it's too dark, like

(06:05):
the idea of tainted beef. It's like Upton Sinclair. The
jungle feels gritty, tato with vibes. Man, Oh wow, it
just feels like you would you would see them on
a on a bill with with fish. Yeah, I was
that's really racking my brain for any jam band I
could think of, and that's the only one that's still
in my brain. Massive Attack where they no part of

(06:30):
Massive Attack. Okay, uh, We're gonna talk about all sorts
of ship. But first Andy, we like task our guests,
what is something from your search history that's revealing about
who you are? Yeah? Okay, So Toby has is hell. Yeah,
the guy who used to do the Sinatra impression on
MTV Sinatra. He was already the strongest man in the

(06:50):
world on Pete and Pete. Most recently, not most recently,
but more recently he has taken a turn into dramatic
acting and he is incredible. Really. Yeah, Halt and Catch
Fire unreal. That was one of my favorite shows in
the last couple of years. And uh, he just did
a little turn on Glow season three, and so I
looked him up to see if I find contact information

(07:14):
for Yeah, he is so I remember, like, I think
that was my first interaction with seeing him do those
weird MTV things where he was like, whoa, you got
method man, like doing some weird scat Sinatra thing. And
then in his just classic portrayal I forget of who
but in the movie down Periscope. I think he was
on an episode of Seinfeld as, uh, what's your faces boyfriend? Ellen?

(07:40):
I mean Elane, dude, I've had too much degenerous on
their brain. I was about to say, Ellen, debeness. I
think it might because it was so yeah, yeah, but
that was a great episode. Yeah classic, Um yeah, So
Toby huss Love one of the best character actors. I mean,

(08:03):
it's so weird to like divide actors up, you know,
but you go, I guess in one bugget you got
your Brad Pitts and yeah, but Angelina Jolie Us, I'm
gonna get your character actors in your other bucket. I'm
going to re engage in this conversation and stop trying
to look up what band I was trying to think
of when I said massive Attack, Who are you thinking?
I don't has to change their name. I think because

(08:27):
they overlapped with someone the other in the early two thousands,
the string cheese incidents. I'm sure people are screaming at
the day when I couldn't remember slush Puppy. My brain
is trying to scream it where my sound time Sector
nine fans at uh andy, what is something you think
is overrated? Great question. Jonathan Hickman's new start on x Men.

(08:51):
Jonathan Hickman's new start on x Men, Yes, tell us now,
I don't think, Jonathan. I think Jonathan Hickman's fantastic, a
great writer, and I'm excited to see where it's going.
But so far there's been some troubling things in the
X Men world and what's been going on the x
Men world, it just feels a little off. And I know,

(09:12):
because I trust Jonathan Hickman, that will pay off at
some point in the future. Oh, you're saying right now
based on his right now, based on he wrote. He's
written two new mini series to relaunch kind of the
X Men world. And they have their own country now
and then yes, and they're dealing with like all mutants
have their own So it's kind of like an Israel

(09:32):
analog minus the Palestine part right that everyone wants to
do like their own little like, uh, this group gets
their own country, right, but let's not deal with the bag,
the real world bag. Where did they create? Where's the country?
It's called Krakoa or cracoa. I don't know how to
pronounce it, because it's the comic. Yeah, yeah, that's the

(09:52):
best thing about comic books in your minds. Whatever is right.
It is a mutant island of its own, the island
itself as a mutant. Yeah that no, get the fucking
mass in which they live upon was a mutants. This

(10:14):
is where I got angry with it, because I'm like,
I'm it's not it's it's just like a prolog. Basically,
it's not even really a story so far. It's kind
of just like, here's an island. Now they're part of
the U N blah blah blah. Right. Uh they Okay,
So some of the main X men are killed in
one of the issues I almost said episode Wolverine Cyclops

(10:35):
Jean Great, just Nightcrawler just killed outright, Uh. And then
the next and you're like, well, it's a comic book,
they're not going to actually be killed. But uh, the
way that they're brought back in the next issue is
that there are cloning pods, Okay, and uh, there is
the so their bodies are cloned basically I won't go

(10:57):
into like the minutia of it. And then there is
a apparently a backup of their minds that is then
put into the clone body. Yeah. Now if you destroy Michaels,
yes exactly, that's the analysis. So if you destroy my computer, uh,
and you get me a new computer and you back
it up, you've just created a different version. You didn't

(11:20):
actually recreate my computer. Now there's this is these are
comic books. I will accept a million different ways you
can bring someone back to life. I will accept God.
I will accept like souls in heaven. I will accept
some kind of resurrection magic. I will There's so many
different things, but this specific thing, which is they killed
They just killed off a bunch of characters and then

(11:41):
brought clone like a Yes, I will even accept like
somehow I grabbed their mind from out of the ether.
I'll accept that kind of thing. But saying no, we
got to backup of their mind is not that person.
And that's where I got off the train. And I
know that that will probably pay off in a in
some way that is acceptable down the line. But but

(12:03):
this is the thing. This is why I said it's overrated,
because everyone is fucking crowing about it, right, They're like
they think it's like really cool and challenging what he's doing. Yes,
And I'm like, look, okay, yes, so I do. I
do have an advance to green philosophy, and so I
will quibble about questions of identity. But also these you
just killed Wolverine and he's just dead. You now have

(12:25):
like you made a cloe of him. It's like The
Venture Brothers. Do you guys watch The Venture Brothers? Basically
the Venture Brothers have been killed I think thirteen or
fourteen times, and the ones you're watching are clones. And
the ones that you find that that we're in season
one they die at the end of season one. From
season two on, you're just watching clones that were backed

(12:47):
up and their brains were up. Yeah, and one sort
of duh, you accepted that's an actual. By the time
they find out that they're clones, that becomes this huge
existential problem for the Venture Brothers. In like season four
or five, I just started. I just rewatched all of
this year. Do you think it's As a philosophy major

(13:10):
fellow philosophy major, would do you think that except you
were actually a philosophy professor so or serious about it
than me? Uh? Do you think we will ever be
able to save our consciousness into like anything in a
meaningful way. Uh no, well maybe, I mean I don't
know about the technology. You could do it, but it
won't be you. You have to have continuity of consciousness, right,

(13:32):
If you want to exist, your brain has to somehow
or your consciousness copy of you, right, or it's just
a copy of you, and then it's not you. And
I know Jonathan. Look, here's the thing. I trust Jonathan Hickman.
I think he's a great writer, and I think it
will it will somehow he will call attention to this
in some way or there. But I'm racking my brain.

(13:52):
How will this be undone? Because so far Wolverine and
n Nightcrawl and my favorite character disintegrated in the sun. Yeah,
you just gotta walk with God man, yea, and he
will reward you. Underrated. Uh. Class warfare the class traders at? Yeah,

(14:13):
I said, where the class traders at? I want where
are the bespoke guillotine companies? Where are Why are we
not killing more rich people and redistributing their money to
the working class. That's my question, Oh man, that's the
age old question in this country. Yeah. I mean I'm
personally uh you know, middle class comfortable on the edge

(14:36):
of bourgeois, so I'm not going to be doing that.
Middle Class comfortable is by far my favorite airline season
cabin class class, your middle class comfortable who I would love.
I would love if airlines, if I could get on
there based on the class. First of all, that's also
the class I grew up in. Right now, I'm like,
who knows, but I'm on Spirit Air in the back,

(15:06):
so yes, let's uh, let's start off. I mean, I
think people, I think people I think are slowly realizing
rich people aren't that cool, and uh are starting to
be like, wait, hold on a second, Ellen, hanging out
with George Bush. I know you talked about but I

(15:33):
love it. Um yeah, I do feel like we were
talking about it. But in the context of it does
feel like there's a sea change that's been happening for
a while, but this is like a manifestation of it
where it's just like, yeah, this isn't cool anymore. Sorry,
like the rules have changed, shut the funk up. Ellen's sadly,
I think it's like jealousy is the real motivator right well,

(15:55):
at certain points like well, I'm not going to have that,
so fuck you. I don't know how many people like
you know, like in that Kylie General like flex Selfie
with R like Bugatti or whatever the fun car was,
and people like this is gross whatever, Like I know
there are some people that was the whole culture for
the past ten years, right, And I wonder if now
that's a function, if that's like a function of saying,

(16:15):
like I realized, now I'm not going to have that
so funck y'all because I wanted that, or realizing, hold
on this, I'm operating in like a fucking fucked up
matrix that's upside down. You said class trader? Were you
what were you referring like people like Disney's granddaughter who
are like being like, you know, we need to pay more,
Like I don't give a funk, we have too much.
I was just listening to somebody to talk about how

(16:37):
that's what you need as class traders, because they will
never let somebody into power who doesn't like he doesn't
have the same background as them. So like the the
person who broke up the monopolies in the first place,
like back at the turn of the like in the
early nine hundreds, was Teddy Rosevelt, and he was just like, yeah,

(16:57):
I know, like, you guys got me elected, but now
I'm going to break up your monopoly, like just had
to like totally do a hell turn on the on
the Ritchie Rich that's almost the only besides like mass action,
that's the only way and that stuff. It's the same
thing with like the impeachment ship that's going on now,
where it's like he get off Trump really could have
done anything up until the point where he actually like

(17:19):
attacked another elite. I mean, this is just I'm just
parroting Chris Hedges what he said on Democracy Now last week,
I think, but but he was just he's saying like
it's the same thing with Watergate, right, everyone was five
with Nixon like murdering how many of Cambodians and Vietnamese people,
and then when he burgled the Democrats, that's where they're like, oh,

(17:41):
we gotta get rid of this dude. Yeah. At the
same time, it is like, our whole system rests on
the idea of democracy, and if he's blatantly cheating at
an election, I mean, granted our rules could be seen
as somewhat but it's that weird thing though too. We've
been saying of all this ship we've seen prior to
this when he tried to smear a centrist Democrat somehow,

(18:03):
it was like, hold on a section, Yeah, that's it.
It's like like he literally went into office ignoring the
moluments clause, which is the grounds for impeachment instantly, and
everyone just like, oh, it's okay that he's profiting off
of his presidency or the or like even if you
look at something anyway, look, it's it's it's uh, that's

(18:24):
why we're in podcasting and with the levers of power
so class warfare. At the same time, I think you
all have a point. I just need to check and
figure out what Lebron James thinks about it, and then
I will let you know what I think. Uh finally,
another rich person, no way, Uh finally, what is a myth?

(18:45):
What's something people think is true you know, to be false.
So I had a couple of ideas for this, and uh,
like the Netflix model is unsustainable, and now he's like,
don't do that, do something fun. So the myth that
I'm going to dispel is the Netflix model is Uh,

(19:06):
mozzarella sticks are bad for you. That's the myth, and
I'm gonna say no, they're great for you follow the
logic on this. Have you guys ever been in a
high stress situation? Yes? Every day? Okay? And how does
your body feel in that high stress situation? I don't know.
I never felt different from the womb to the two.

(19:28):
So have you ever been in a more stressful situation? Yes?
How's your body feel that? Very very tight? Yes? Okay? Okay.
So uh a while ago, now, I mean I were
in a working on a project that was we're working
with some terrible people. This is like, okay, we're I
don't know why we decided to sell a TV show

(19:49):
to the coach writing scripts for Prager University videos. But
it was all about how frack it was there. It
was about a fracking team and how they're saving the world. Um,
they started and discovered there's like a whole underground civilization

(20:11):
held on. It was right there in front of us
the whole time. Um. So it was about six years
ago now, uh And um I got um chest pains
from this. Naomi got an ulcer from this. This thing.
It was really it was not It was not good.
We're under so much stress and um, what was what
was the bright spot in our lives? Why the food

(20:33):
we would Yeah. So now I say this, when you
were in a high stress situation, why don't need a
motz realistick? Yeah? From where? From where? From where? From?
Where are we? Well? Where are we now? In Los Angeles?
I mean like, but I'm just saying that that, like,
I can't dictate wherever you are. We're the best motz
realistick is eating I want to get Well, that was
New York then, I don't know exactly call it out

(20:54):
here how suppies. Surprisingly the best motzarelelistick I've had in
lost to us cosa Bloona comes in second because they
have a smoky Mozarellistic but it's not but it's like homemade.
It's delicious, but it's when you want like a mozzarellistic
flower shell, deliciously fried. Howsa pies. Nothing else on that
may was great, but their mozarellistis pies. You know. That's

(21:18):
what I think most doctors say if you're having chest pains,
have some mozarealistics. I think, what's going on when people
people talk about my arm, but I should have these
mazare realistics with the other one. When people talk about
the placebo effect, they picture like sugar pills only. But
I do feel you know, the placebo effect basically means

(21:38):
how you think you feel is like how your body
is actually going to you know, behave and medically exists.
I feel like, you know, eating comfort food sometimes is
hell yeah healthy, there's nothing that man. I I know
exactly what you mean. Stress eating and I won't go
hand in hand and also knowing there are certain things

(21:59):
that you eat that you feel really good. Yeah. I
love a French dip sandwich. That's just that's just how
I self medicated with food. With French dip, that seems yeah. Well,
I mean like you had Philips. You can get you know,
there's a way to making yourself where you get the
little packet and uh just make a weird one on
your stove, not that great French right am? I? Right? Well,

(22:24):
you know, when you you'll see my ex massade security
guards beat the ship out of you. If you're trying
to get all right, we're gonna take a quick break.
We'll be right back, and we're back and we are monsters.

(22:48):
I wish you could have heard that commercial break. Screamed
at him for talking to our talent through a mug. Yeah,
at the at the wall, but it didn't chatter, which
mean it was very like Yeah, well the velocity from
your hand was very low, like O Jack. It says

(23:11):
more about your strength. I want to have a monz
a realistic moment. Uh like Popeye. Yeah, that's why it's
called fart. How would pop stick? Would you squeeze and
the thing would shoot into his mouth like a hot load.
Let's talk about Lebron. I'm sorry, let's talk about Lebron James. Uh.

(23:36):
This this upset me more than I more than it
should have, more than I cared to admit. Yeah. So look,
the NBA uh and pretty much any company doing business
with China that's an American based company is going through
a bit of a time now where people have to
be like, should we talk out loud in favor of

(23:56):
people who are being oppressed by this autocratic regime? I
don't know money better? And the NBA saga unfolded when
Darryl Moria from the Rockets tweeted out an image and
solidarity of the Hong Kong protests and then fired due
cause of cause of massive profits fire like Leaning Sports
where ended their deal with the Rockets. Ten Cent like

(24:18):
every company, A lot of companies are doing business with
the NBA or like we're done. Harden and Russell Westbrooke
in the immediate aftermath were like, we love China is
actually really tight to me fans, they're super tightly a
communism slash capitalism. So sick though whatever, I guess I'm
more I was more willing to forgive that because it
was the day after and they were clearly like had

(24:40):
a gun to their head, whereas this is like, yeah, well,
I think week and a half later, Lebron James he
has to say so. I'm sure he was probably asked,
I'm sure that's how it all happened, and his answer
up anyway, he just has this quote he said, I
don't want to get into a verbal feud with Darryl Moore,
but I believe he wasn't educated on the situation at hand,
and he spoke, and he spoke, uh, and so many

(25:03):
people could have been harmed, not only financially, physically, emotionally spiritually.
So just be careful what we tweet and say, and
we do even though yes, we do have freedom of speech,
but there can be a lot of negative that comes
with that too. I mean, unless we play in China
that we don't write. I'm just what what was? What? What?

(25:24):
What is he? I don't understand that he he he
wasn't educated on the situation. What is he misinformed by?
I was confused? What? What? What did Lebron James think
that Darryl Morty didn't know when he tweeted support for
the people in Hong Kong who are being like riot

(25:44):
policed to I think I don't know the cynical stand
the whole, like the law, like what was going on
with the is an extradition? I forget the exactly Like
what the reason why rendition? I think? Yeah, I think
really what it says the translation might be talking about
China can funk up everyone's money. We aren't willing to

(26:05):
confront their transgressions because it would risk our revenues. So
we have chosen to ignore this because money is more important. Yeah,
I think is what he meant, right, See, guys, it's
a class warah No. But but again, you know, and
it's a very odd. It was a weird thing to say,
and I can only imagine the league's biggest star probably

(26:27):
has to send up a flare to Chinese business interests
to say like I am still in line with whatever
y'all are trying to But even the NBA, after they
initially issued a statement that was like kind of the
in this direction that was sort of like, well, you
know there's multiple sides to everything. Uh, Adam Silver came

(26:49):
out and was you know, said made a statement that
was definitely picking the side of you know, freedom of
speech and pissing China off. So like it's not like
Adam Silver was behind him being like say this or
or else. Yeah, No, it was all about not fucking
up his money. It's like he's about progressive values until

(27:12):
it becomes it's a little Yeah, it's a little sad
to see because on one hand, I I can understand
privately if he's what he's saying is to someone else
who goes man, Darrel should have known he's like we
were in bed with China. That's like a third rail topic.
Like you can only talk about the business and that
don't talk about anything about what their government does or
anything to do with their domestic reform. You can talk

(27:33):
about the meg Another International Co Productions and how and
how sick leaning footwear is, but like that's where I
wish you would have just not said anything at all,
because I can stomach him just being you know, about
his money and not really trying to act like he's
some kind of savior type person. But it's drawn a

(27:53):
lot of criticism. Him saying this has drawn a lot
of krypt. Muhammad Ali's wife was like, Muhammad Ali wouldn't
have done that, and he wouldn't No, he wouldn't have.
But I I do think it's sometimes important to remember,
like you you shouldn't have your hopes like pinned on,
Like I don't watch athlete interviews after the game for
a reason, like they are always boring as fuck, Like

(28:16):
I like, they don't have interesting performances. I want to
thank leaning sports were Jesus, I want to thank I'm
sorry I misspoke, not Jesus jimping. She's in Christ Yeah,
but Ali Kaepernick, Uh, Like you can't you can't really

(28:37):
count that many athletes who were like important, you know
O J. Simpson on Twitter? Great Tom Brady, Sorry, obviously
you know the great? What did O J? Say? Oh
my god, he's just as much. He's incredible. Love China
make some great knives, right well, I think that's the

(28:57):
whole deal, right as certain people in your actor vis um,
if you're really about your activism, you will follow that
path wherever leads you for the faint of heart. And
I think that's what we see is at the end
of the day, Lebron James is a capitalist. That's his prerogative.
I mean, this is what Michael Jordan's probably would have
done or said. Yeah, he would have been like the
protesters exactly. I mean, is that your Michael Jordan impression? No,

(29:21):
we just not. I don't. I don't think there's a
way to properly do Michael Jordan's. But but he did kids. Yeah,
he's he's not a very kind guy. But like you know,
for example, you know, and his cantor, who's a Turkish player.
He tweeted out basically after this came out, he said,
have so anyway and his cantor is basically cannot go
back to Turkey. Yeah, and his cantor has been outspoken

(29:46):
in a very big critic of Ara to Wan and
so that comes with consequences, And he tweeted, haven't seen
or talked to my family five years jailed my dad,
my siblings, can't find jobs, revoked my passport, international arrest warrant,
my family can't leave the country, got death threats every day,
got attacked, harassed, tried to kidnap me. In Indonesia, freedom
is not free. And I think that sort of realigning

(30:10):
the stakes for people here. It's like this isn't just
some It's not just like is the is it? Did it?
Was it Yanni or Laurel. It's like it's not like,
oh yeah, I'm either cool with this or no, actually,
this is actually and I cannot abide by this. It
just depends on your point of view. And again, should
have taken other people's point of views into it, take account,

(30:32):
take the middle road like most people, and just don't
say anything at all, you know, but if you're going to, don't,
don't don't speak on the right side please. Um. By
the way, has anyone ever done and uh arid Wuan
slash and one mash up? Yeah yeah, I mean his

(30:52):
crossover was massy. I saw him fucking spin hot sauce
in half. It was incredible. Uh, let's talk about the
ongoing impeachment inquiry and the whistleblower story. Yeah, wow, it's
it's getting hotter, It's getting look started thinking it's getting

(31:14):
getting hot in here so hot, so take off all
your clothes. Uh No. Every day there's a new person
who's like, I don't care what the White House said,
I'm gonna go talk to Congress. I don't give a fuck.
There's no confidential information because you have made it public.
Therefore there's no like, there's no legal argument as to
why I shouldn't go up there. That's exactly what Fiona Hill,

(31:35):
who was the National Security Council's like Russia aid uh
set her lawyer basically said to the White House, and
they're like, no, she's gonna go testify. She Republican herself. Um,
I'm not sure, but she's definitely what she was saying.
You wouldn't think it. She's definitely not you know or
you know whatever. She's at least able to speak coherently
on this very narrow topic. I mean, it's the intelligence

(31:56):
agencies hate Trump. I mean they aspies him. And because
there was a Matt Tiebee article where he was saying,
like most most of the time, when there's a whistleblower
in the intelligen any of the intelligence agencies, they destroy
that person, right, They just like destroy their lots intelligence intelligence.
And this is the first time where there's a quote

(32:17):
unquote whistleblower and they're, uh, they're like, this is the
greatest person that's ever come forward. Yeah, they and it is.
Let it's a valid question, is she herself a Republican
because I mean most people in national security are Republicans,
like by nature, like that's that's who generally gravitates towards

(32:39):
security and defense. What's odd too, because it also kind
of obscures like what Reality Winner or like Chelsea Manning
have done, Like those are those are people who are
absolutely paying consequences, genuine heroes, and it did real things
that redefines what a whistleblower is kind of uh and
and I know there have been a lot of articles
I think maybe was that Matt Tipees article made talking

(33:00):
about in the context of like like actual whistleblowers and
like what the fate has been for those people. Yeah,
I mean, like what she has, like a five year sentence.
Is Chelsea Manning out? Is she back out of jail?
I think she she was in. She was put back
in jail again. Yeah, it's again, and it's this is

(33:20):
the whole situation again. For whatever reason, this is the
moment people are choosing to find their morality and whatever
their convictions and things like this. But between Fiona Hill
and the Deputy Assistant Secretary of State George Ken, who
have both basically testified in front of Congress, are telling
lawmakers the same thing. Rudy Giuliani was running an outright
smear campaign against Maria Vanovitch, the Ambassador of Ukraine and

(33:43):
running they were worried that she was too on the
up and up and wouldn't let them do crimes right,
And Rudy Giuliani, the hero of nine eleven and doing
and running their own shadow foreign policy is what was said,
and it kind of shows you how many people there are,
many people within the White House who sage like dude,
Ruddy's fucking out of control. Um. And you know John

(34:03):
Bolton somehow did liberal John Bolton might end up being
like the chariot just dripping from his jaws. Well, it's
funny because when he was like I resigned in Trump's
like he's fired or whatever, like unceremoniously left the White House,
he vowed to make a mess. And you're starting to
see that Trump already suspects that a lot of you,
like leaks are coming from John Bolton. But that's kind

(34:25):
of what happens when there's no honor among thieves and
people are out and they're they're spiteful. So one of
the things that the testimony feel A Hill gave basically
KOed all these times, like these defenses that the GOP
has been giving, whether it's the quid pro quothing or
the absurd argument Sandland was going to give. She says
that there was a big blowout with John Bolton, Kurt Volker,

(34:46):
Gordon Snland, and a couple of Ukrainians because they were
basically talking about this deal is she This is her testimony.
Mr Bolton was trying to not commit to a meeting.
According to Missile's testimony, Mr Sonlon got agitated and let
out that there was in agreement with Mr Mulvaney that
there would be a meeting well with Ukrainians if Ukraine
opened up the investigations the White House was seeking. That's

(35:10):
literally you've described the quid pro quote right there. John
Bolton welcome to the resistance, and John was pissed. So
then what happened next? Mr Bolton ended the meeting abruptly
as the group moved towards the door. Mr Salon said
he wanted to wanted them to come down to the
Ward Room next to the White House mess to discuss
next steps. Mr Bolton pulled her aside and told her
to report everything they talked about. When she got downstairs,

(35:32):
Salolon was talking with the Ukrainians and specifically mentioned Barisma,
the Ukrainian energy firm that had Hunter Biden on their board.
Then what ms Hill testified that she asked Mr Sallon
why he would be discussing this in front of their
Ukrainian colleagues and tried to shuffle them out of the
room and break things up. At one point, Mr Sallon
mentioned Mr Juliani, who was involved in the discussions about

(35:54):
a possible meeting between the two presidents. So and Edwards
Sanland as we're talking about yesterday. He's out here trying
to be like, oh, I had no idea what they were,
what was going on? Or Gordon? Yeah, I'm sorry, I
don't know why I keep thinking Edward, but anyway, God
come messing up the names today. But I'm saying, like,

(36:15):
there is he going to testify something that is counter factual? Right?
A lie? Will he tell lies? It seems like he
wants to just get it out there, so he's not
the bad guy. Yeah, but he's trying to do it
both ways, where he's trying to be like I didn't
do it, and also they're not that bad, you know,
Like that's not gonna work, not especially not when you

(36:37):
have all these people who were there talking to you
in your face, being like this is not what happened, right, um,
so it'll get interesting. And now Rudy Giulian, he's like,
I will not fucking cooperate with a single congressional subpoena. Also,
didn't he fire his lawyer because the former Water Day prosecutor? Yeah, yeah,
I think he left. Actually, I don't know. There's a
lot of rumors as to what happened. But after two weeks, like, okay,

(36:59):
so that was two weeks ago, that's when the scandal broke.
By this time, he's like, okay, I'm out right. M hmm,
rat dog, yeah, disco biscuits, widespread panic, widespread panic, government mule,
oh jam bands, yeah, leftover salmon, just a handful, just

(37:19):
a sprinkling, wide spread panic is the one that I
was trying to think, a fuck massive attack. Okay, that
kind of makes sense. Yeah, yeah, it's a sprinkling the names. Yeah,
thank you so much. You're the best man. Uh, let's
talk about US foreign policy that doesn't necessarily involve the
whistleblower directly, but just bombing, wending weddings involved general widespread incompetence,

(37:44):
WI spread panic, yes, wide spread panic even uh yeah,
actually wide spread panic. Uh. So, I mean Trump's Syria
policy they called a policy, Trump's policy, tump Trump's when
I worked for someone that is exactly like Trump wants

(38:04):
and uh, people like him don't have policies. They just
ever whatever fucking ship just flies in front of their face.
There's like, yeah, do that thing or go against that thing. Well,
there's also a speculation that his conversation with ado On
was involved, like some of his financial interests in Turkey, right, yes,
and also talks about a banker that Rudy Giuliani was representing.

(38:28):
There's a lot we talked days. Um, but yeah, I
mean I think when you sort of look at what's happening, obviously,
Trump pulling out of Syria and abandoning our Kurdish allies,
creating power vacuum that Russia is so glad to fill
because now they're already patrolling the areas that have been
vacated by the U. S troops um and it basically
has had the knock on effect of creating an alliance

(38:49):
between the Koords and Russia of VI's a via sad
basically where you know, this is like the perfect thing
for Putent. He would love nothing more than to have
like the reputation of the US as an ally be
like a thing that you can't count on anymore, because
that was sort of like the post World War two
thing that they're trying to break up. And it's slowly
happening now right with the slowly its people who are

(39:14):
like in national security are like, this is all of
our worst nightmares and it like happened immediately right away.
Is like two days later, Russia is like allied with
the Kurds and it's a disaster. It's like all of
the paranoid fantasies of like what if there was an
idiot who was president, like we would be no idea

(39:34):
about the nuances who just wasn't willing to take into
account the nuances of you know, not even nuances ally
equals good. By the way, just no one good there
in this story. No one is a good person, like
Putin as a monster. Trump is as just a stupid beast.
The CIA spent the last what six decades, seven decades

(39:56):
overthrowing demotic and then the whistle Lower scandal. Like a
lot of the people are probably pissed at Trump because
he's not better at doing crimes as opposed to the
fact that he's doing crimes. It's like, come on, man,
if you're gonna cheat on your tests, like answer, yeah, exactly,
you're making it hot, that's exactly what. Why do they

(40:17):
always telling themselves like these people like Trump, they or
Julian they this outright say the ship they've done. I
think their privilege just puts them in a different reality
where you can say things like because it clearly with Trump,
transparency equals innocence to him, I'm if I'm if I'm
transparently corrupt, then what's the problem. I'm not like being
duplicit ist, like I'm all on the open. I don't

(40:38):
know the duplicity is the problem. Yeah, oh, I would
never be duplicit, just be corrupt out in the open. Well,
I mean that is the issue that we're having, is
that we have this model for what a political scandal
looks like and it involves lying, and he in addition
to lying, also just says just doesn't realize that what
he's doing is bad and so just openly does it.

(41:00):
And it's like, yeah, what what are you gonna do? Yeah,
well again with the series or the Seria thing, like Trump,
you know, there there are reports that he thought like
Urdawan was bluffing about invading Syria. It's like he's been
saying this for years now, but you but he's like, yeah,
I gave the okay to the thing he said he
would do for years and he did it. Whoa. And

(41:20):
then the response are these like weak sanctions packages. I
don't know why he's trying to get credit for putting
out a fucking forest fire that he started and not
even putting it out, like he brought a water gun
to a fucking forest fight. Yeah, a forest fight, forest fight.
That's a good band name, forest fight, forest Fight. But
he doesn't he doesn't. That's the thing. He doesn't give
any fourthought. He doesn't get fourthought. He doesn't get the stuff.

(41:42):
He reacts to whatever is in front of him, does
whatever the thing is that will either enrich him or
hurt his enemies and then he goes on to whatever
the next thing is and then just like just react
to that. He's a he's just this like putrid um
dripping ichor of id right does this? Uh this I'm

(42:05):
imagining just like there's some shadow creature just dripping this
like stuff with like these sharp disgusting teeth. Just like yeah. Um. So,
while while we're on the subject of what a good
leader he is, apparently we might be in for four
more years. According to Moody's, who is the credit rating agency. Uh,
they have a model that just looks at the economy

(42:29):
and has chosen correctly every time since nine eight who
would win the presidential election every time? Sorry, except for
two thousand and sixteen, the one time that people were
actually surprised. So it doesn't mean then we should keep
listening to that, but I do I do, like, yeah,
I think this is representative of something we're going to

(42:50):
see more and more of as you know, the election
gets rolling and the mainstream like monoculture media, apple ratis
is you know it. It has an entire history of
elections to drawn and only one two thou sixteen election
to drawn. And so, uh, they're going to say ship

(43:12):
like this. Uh. President Donald Trump looks likely to cruise
to re election next year under three different economic models. Uh.
Barring anything unusual happening, The president's electoral college victory could
easily surpasses two thousand sixteen win over Hillary Clinton. Barring
anything unusual happening, Like, aren't we beyond that? Like do

(43:36):
if this is everything is in? Everything is unusual? Well,
here's the thing with it? Was a was Moody's one
of the companies that uh was paid off to change
ratings in the in the Big Short? Uh? That fictional movie?
No in reality? Uh? Going leading up to the crash.
Weren't they one? There were two companies? And weren't they

(44:00):
Money May and Freddie Mack? I think, Uh No, No,
was Moody's and whatever the other one that rates that
gives like triple right? Weren't they one? Also? Like every
um person that like was like, we know what's going
to happen in they're all still working? Like Nate Silver,
I'm like, why are we listening to this guy? He's
been wrong so many times, including this giant one, this

(44:23):
big old screen myths Andy that I liked pus but
he said that Trump had a like thirty three percent
chance he was. He wasn't one of the ones that
was saying like it was a one in a million
that Trump would win. Um, well, I think where he
gets lumped in with all the predictive people. I think
the thing just about this is that it's coming from
a fucking financial services company, and it's there. Wall Street

(44:49):
is telling you, well, if you look, because I mean,
let's let's just think about what's going on right now.
If you look at a lot of the polling or
the averages, Elizabeth Warren could be ahead of Joe Biden,
who is a pee pants nightmare for Wall Street. Uh.
Then after Biden is Bernie Sanders, a pooh pants nightmare
for Wall Street. And then so they're like, fuck, like,

(45:09):
we're in a really weird spot, because if it's not Biden,
the next two people have literally were on their hit list,
And I think for them to be I think it's
them being like, hey man, you better Wall Streets telling
you this could be uh, you know, save us please, sir.
You know we're tiny. This could be bad. If it's
these people were looking at right now, I just I'm

(45:29):
a little bit cynical when I see him moodies, be
like emphatically, be like, dude, Donald Trump is gonna crush
whoever it is. And I guess right now, for looking
at the averages of polls, I guess that's Elizabeth Warren.
So maybe we should go back to the Biden thing.
I don't know, I'm out, But also like there's a
very good chance Trump will be reelected, absolutely, especially if
it's if Biden is the nominee or some thank you guys. Now,

(45:55):
I think Warren is even problematic. I think Bernie is
the only one that is a clear it's a toss up,
and even then I think it might who knows, but
but yeah, we we are all probably looking at another
four years at Trump. Well, I can't imagine again because
it would take a lot when you think about how
the huge donors are thinking, if it's fucking Elizabeth Warren,

(46:18):
we're gonna back Trump, or that there's been grumblings like
that and he already has historically. Then like in a way,
you might have to see the d n C play
ball in their weird fucking way. Fellow, here's Pete Buddha judge,
but they don't give a ship. The d n C
doesn't care because they still get paid. The top people.
They're still get paid their job. They're not invulnerable, but
they're not being put in cages. They're not their children

(46:40):
are being taken from them. No, not at all. They
don't care. They there consultants still get paid. So if
they lose, like with Hillary Quintin, they knew that the
numbers weren't great, They knew she was a flawed candidate
in the first place, and they knew that they should
have like maybe they didn't, And I think that just
a very uncreative thinking of like thinking of where people

(47:01):
were and what the direction people were possibly looking towards,
and then we're like we'll just go with this very familiar,
like dynastic name. Yeah, And even like during that time,
I understand why conventional wisdom had it that Hillary was
like a safe bet to be to beat Trump because
in the past, like centrist Democrats had been. But if

(47:23):
you still believe that, like what the fuck were you
not paying attention to about Like we're not that in
that world anymore. Um, it's a brand new day, man. Yeah,
all right, we're gonna take a quick break and we'll
be right back. And we're back, and we should say,

(47:53):
we're not going to get to the democratic uh debate tomorrow.
They're happening right now. We're recording late, but not to
wait for the Democratic debate. We're recording later. I think
bed O Rook is saying, some ship right now, the
gangs all here. She picked up her podium and threw
it at Yeah, I know it's Amy Klobar came at

(48:17):
Elizabeth pretty interestingly. Yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure. When I
U mute this, it's gonna be a lot. I'm thinking
it's spicy. I don't know. Tomorrow maybe, Well, let's talk
about what's actually important. In the moment. There is a
Taco Bell recall of tainted beef quote unquote beef, and
it's causing a widespread panic. Thank you so much. He

(48:38):
has returned so basically Monday, they said they are voluntarily
recalling two point three million pounds of seasoned beef in
twenty one states. So if you're in the eastern Midwest,
this is so crazy. The eastern Midwest, the northern Southeast,
and northeast Civically, Uh, it wasn't, but they're saying, don't worry,

(49:03):
it wasn't salmonella. It was just metal shavings, metal shavings. Yeah,
so that's a public service announcement from the daily like case,
because I know I preached the gospel of l bell.
Are metal shavings dangerous to ingest? I think? So it's right. Well,

(49:24):
first of all, I can funk up your teeth. Second
of all, like think about you ingests metal shavings and
then go into one of those magnetic imaging machines and
it just cut pulls it through your final destination. Ship son.
But I was imagining like that. You know when you
were a kid, you had that little thing with the

(49:45):
magnetic shavings that you could change the hair. Yeah, that's
what I'm imagining, that you could change the hair on
like you eat these taco metals moving around st Yeah,
and you move, you can move you, Oh my god.
Like I want my organs a different configuration. I'm sick
of my I'm being here. I can't. I mean, look,
I honestly, I like metal shavings in my MEXI melt
so I'm not that mad at it. But I go

(50:08):
to the you know, I put in the little hot sauce,
putting some metal shavings. Let me get a cheesy roll
up at pico ad beef at metal shavings, please three
of them. Let's talk about Let's talk about some food
that is uh farm to runway food the next evolution,
and Airlines just run that runway fashion like the farmer.

(50:33):
This cow is wearing a beautiful another cow. Well have
you saying, yo man Yeoman farmers? Now, yes, Singapore Airlines
announced the thing that I thought was probably just absurd
on its face, But when I read about the company
that's doing it, it's not as sort of gross as
I thought. Uh. They basically if you have a business

(50:55):
class ticket for the New York to Singapore direct flight,
you can eat like a ball. Uh. They are basically
providing like organic produce that is like grown less than
like ten miles from the runway. So it's the freshest
possible ingredients. Why are they doing this set their carbon

(51:15):
foot Yeah, I think like, oh, yeah, that should work well. Okay,
So this place that they're using, I think this is
more of an interesting story on this kind of vertical
indoor farming techniques that they use. Uh. This this placed
Arrow Farms is the indoor farm where they're getting the food.
But I didn't realize it uses less water than field

(51:35):
farm food. Love love the triple left. But you know,
gotta love this new indoor food. And they say also
because like the processes about like like spray bottling, like
waters directly the water onto the roots. Uh, you will
get You can harvest vegetables in ten of fourteen versus
thirty conventions of traditional farming. I mean, look, God blessed

(51:58):
days of traditional farming. Um, we really love them. But yeah,
look I didn't realize. I guess now now we all
have something to aspire to. We all want to fly
business class from Newark to Singapore. Yeah, really joined the
successful people. The other option is to fly middle class,
comfort class, in which case you eat out of a
bowl like you were just hearing me do, uh speaking

(52:23):
eating out of a tin ball. That was the other option, rice. Yeah,
one more food story before we get to the main attraction,
which is Robert Downey Jr's new movie Dolittle. For some reason,
Coca Cola is making tic TACs. Yeah that's all, that's it.
I don't understand what is it isn't a tic tac

(52:47):
or breath mint. Hold on because they can be great.
Uh you know they're sweet, bye bye great. I mean
like the breath freshening stuff. Who cares, But you got
orange tic TACs. They're delicious. They're delicious and coke. Here's
the thing. As a vegetarian, I have not been able
to have coke gummies because they have gelatine in them.

(53:09):
Able to have vegetarian no animal that you have to
kill the animal to get the hooves. But you make
the gella cheese, yes, not vegan. Great, fantastic. You don't
have to kill you don't have to kill any animal
to get cheese. But you can drink coca cola too, right,
there's a very there's a very specific taste that the

(53:29):
cola adds to the gummies. It's delicious and I have
missed that. Now you're offering me another candy that has
cola taste. I'm on board. At first I thought you
were at Coke Brothers. Then I thought it was cocaine
take taxs of some new drugs. But now you're telling
me it's coca cola. Yeah, flavored tic TACs. They are

(53:51):
white on the outside, which bugs me. For some reason,
I can't quite figure the vanilla ones are like, are
the regular mint ones that had a hint of vanilla
on the outside. You want to be brown, Yeah, I
want them to be brown. Well, then they can't print.
I think it's just to be able to print the
red Coca Cola. I don't know. Look, I'm not in marketing.
Here's the thing. Two things that have equally bad aftertastes,

(54:13):
Coca Cola and the white tic TACs. I've gotta taste
Coke zero definitely metallic, terrible aftertaste itself. Oh my god,
I'll just sip on that after I don't even need
to drink me a glass of aftertaste. I don't need
the Coca cola itself. What do you mean? What sense?

(54:35):
Like how your teeth feel like they're turning the dust.
It feels like it fox here like, Yeah, it makes
your teeth gritty like the tic tac. And make sure
breath taste makes it gritty like the mascot a fantastic.
Maybe that's what you prefer, is gritty. Maybe that's just
the difference between you and me. They had a one
before that was a generic Cherry Cola tic tac that

(54:56):
I remember I bought because you know, I like to
funk around with That makes sense, uh? And it was
generic though, and it was a little odd. But you know,
maybe if they have the original formula, then we they
have they found something good. I guess with the coke aftertaste,
I mean, not the immediate aftertaste, which they've perfected, the
mouth feel and even food food scientists say like Coca

(55:18):
cola has the best like, but no, it's five minutes
Coca cola. Five minutes after you drink it coke, your
your mouth starts to like, I don't know, it's like
the opposite of the clean feeling you have after you
brush your teeth. Yeah, morning mouth. That's a great way
of describing it. Miles, Thank you so much. You know,

(55:38):
at some points on the board, you know what, I
agree with you. Thank you straight up, and an element
tic TACs do the same thing. Alright, guys, we have
to get to the story of Robert Downey Jr's return
to the big screen silver screen Temple post mc uh comly,

(56:02):
Robert Downey Jr. Is Dolittle, just like Joker, So this
is like Joker. It's equally anticipated. Also won the award
for Top Film at the Venice Film Festival when it
premiered there. Yeah, dolittle uh in the audience. So this
movie I think technically is the opposite of those attributes,

(56:26):
and that it was set for to be released last
spring and has instead been held for January, which is
generally like studio dumping ground where they just drop all
the I mean it's a kids movie, right, So I
don't know you saw like a kids movie. I mean
it is a kids movie because Dr Doolittle lives in

(56:47):
an enchanted castle where he has a toy train running
through it for some reason. Uh like a weird fao
schwartz in mushroom. Yeah, like toys the Robin Williams movie.
Love it, but it's so what One sign that we're
in on shaky ground is that Robert Downey Jr. In

(57:08):
order to keep himself focused, Attempted a Welsh accent. I
don't know what that was. She literally said, he's doing
it as a fun challenge for himself. A Welsh accent.
So it is Christian Bale's accent, which, if you've ever
listened to Christian Bale in interviews, sometimes he sounds like

(57:30):
he has an accent, sometimes he doesn't. It's like, why
does Christian Bale have a fake accent? He doesn't. He
has a Welsh accent. Which even Welsh people are like,
it's really a weird accent, or depending on where you are,
just differ. I mean Katherine Zeta Jones is also Welsh,
and you're like, I it's like vaguely English, but so
like Madonna. Yeah, like Lindsay Lohan. Like the other time

(57:53):
that somebody tried to do a really difficult accent, Leonardo
DiCaprio did a South African acts in Blood Diamond, and
everyone's likes the worst accent work ever. But then South
some South African people were like, no, it's actually really good,
but we just have a weird accent that like, on
some words it sounds like you forgot to do the accent,

(58:14):
and in other words it sounds like you have a
thick act. I remember my first trumpet teacher when I
was taking lessons as a kid, who like worked at
my school. His wife was South African, and when she spoke,
I was like, as a kid, I didn't know what
the accent was, and I thought, I was like, it
sounds like she's from Texas mixed with England. Is what
my first description of the South African action. Yeah, anyways,
this movie is it's fucking I don't know it's garbage.

(58:37):
It looks like absolute trash. The trade looks like absolute trash.
It's not for you, it's for children, okay, But it's
very serious. It has a very serious vibe to it,
Like it starts with like really dramatic, like sweeping shots
and dramatic Louis Armstrong, it's a wonderful world. Is not

(58:57):
that he's going to be terrible horrible attempt my first
who But it's not that it's and it's a normal presentation.
It is the like echo e version where it's like
like the Facebook movie whatever that was called Social Network,

(59:19):
right right, right right? Uh, you know, I just there
were so many things in it that were very odd.
I just, for whatever reason, I just can't stand the
polar bearer wearing a knit cap. Why, I don't know.
Are you guys angry? That includes animals that will be
extinct within our lifetime. Here's what it cost A hundred

(59:41):
and seventy five million dollars to make. Jesus, they spent
a Marvel movies worth of budget on this movie. It's like,
you guys don't live in Los Angeles. Yeah, it's made
by the guy who wrote and directed Syriana wrote traffic.
Are you serious? And he had to be replaced halfway

(01:00:04):
through because apparently he was the animals were attacking Doctor Doolittle,
killing him. I hear David Simon wrote the original script. Yeah,
the a lot of the imagery. I mean, it's one
of those things. It's a hard needle to thread with
Doctor Doolittle movies, I feel like, because it has to
almost be fully cartoonish so for it to not like
sort of start veering into the absolute. I think that's

(01:00:27):
what we're responding to is it's like if you made
Flipper a dramatic, dramatic film, where like Flipper was a
trend assassin. Like, that's what this trailer feels like. Imagine
Red Sparrow mixed with Flipper exactly. It's just red tiede.
That's actually I mean, the there was a time when
the CIA was trying to do that. Not the CIA,

(01:00:49):
it was like some Russian or intelligence there was some
intelligence agent that was trying to train dolphins to do
the Germans. I think everybody was basically like, I don't know,
fucking get these sea dogs. We have lians of dollars,
we might as well do whatever what the funk we
want they tried to do it with cats. It was
called Operation Acoustic Kitty, and it did not go well,
are you serious like to do what? It was? Some

(01:01:10):
I think they were bomb like bomb carrying cats. But
are the reason the the no, No, there were cats spies.
They were cats with recording devices. Got it and that's
why I was Acoustic Kitty. And uh, there's a reason
that hurting cats is something that's a saying for something

(01:01:33):
that's impossible. Well, I mean they should have got doctor
Doolittle because he could have just had the cats back
and say, what did you hear? Oh my god, there's
your gritty remake of doing where he's trained. He's getting
animals to right, right right? That would actually be interesting
to see Doolittle in the modern world. But this is
just like Doolittle in Pirate Pirates of the Caribbeans, like

(01:01:53):
vaguely vaguely Pirates of the Caribbean. Yeah, that would be great,
like like a series of Homeland type ship but little
Doo little yes, right, thank you. What's the disney is
that the inconclusive contact me. Yes. This is the second
winner of a movie idea that we've come up with

(01:02:14):
in the past three episodes. It's a free punch up. Yeah,
the Nightmare on Elm Street. But it's people who get
too high is the other Their panic brings on Freddy
Krueger to frank them up. So it's like how high
plus yeah exactly? Yeah too high? Yeah? How high? Anyways, Andy,

(01:02:34):
just cranking out that. It's been so fun having you, ma'am.
Where can people find you? Follow you here? You? Oh,

And we have we're label mates, guys. We have a
podcast here on this very network called a Couple of
Therapy me and my dear common law wife Naomi, where

(01:02:55):
we take the best sets from our live show Couples Therapy,
where we have comics who are closed, do sets together
about the relationship and bring them to you. Then we
also talk about our relationship and other things, things like
encountering coyotes with our sweet new dear Mabel are who
you heard chewing in the background, and what else recently happened.

(01:03:17):
We went to solving I really undersold know you guys
have we have wonderful guests. We talked about relationships. Yeah,
we're doing the relationships comans. If you like live comedy
and this is not just like hearing people go up
and do their material. You're hearing like improvisers and comedians

(01:03:37):
go up and do what is uh Andy Kindler and
be funny on stage with one another, Rachel interacting off
of one another. It's aren't of the New Black Daniel Brooks.
And so the list keeps. The list goes on and
on and Andy, is there a tweet or other work

(01:03:58):
of social media that you've been in? Yes? Uh so
most of the stuff that I like happens to be pictures.
But um, I like this is a comedian and uh
pal Dan Wilbur. At Dan Wilbur, he said, uh, this
is a couple of days ago. I don't understand why
aoc would pay three dollars for a haircut when every

(01:04:19):
man criticizing her would cut it for free as long
as they got to keep the hair. That made me laugh. Miles,
where can people find you? And what's a tweet you've
been man? Tweet your Twitter? Find me on Instagram and
that other one Twitter Miles of Gray a tweet that

(01:04:40):
I like actually shout out to a t L Prince
of Wales and at chavonni Lee because we were talking
about drive throughs and the impact that they have on
like urban spaces. And you hipped me to some knowledge,
so I will consider that. Actually, um it is it
does make sense because yes we are we are not
properly using the land. Um okay. Now for a couple

(01:05:03):
of tweets I like this one is from Blair Saki
at Blair Saki, I have not been sleeping well for
a while. Sorry. This really resonated with me. It says
I love how companies are, Like if you buy this mattress,
you will finally be able to sleep, Like I'm sure Casper,
does it come with a new brain? Bitch? You were
you were really doing Blair's cadence to I mean, if

(01:05:25):
Blair knows anything, I've I've mastered her tone and cadence.
Miles Miles career can really be seen as one long
audition for the Blair Saki lifetime fo Yeah, when you
do her SNL edition, are you gonna do this? Is? Uh?
This is Blair Saki who just tried out before me
like him. Parker at Allergic to Sex tweeted, Hey, t

(01:05:49):
s A, how are you gonna take my toothpaste? Because
it's quote too big? But let me board with all
this as uh and Davy Club tweeted Neil Patrick Harris
might jack into hashtag the Matrix for, and Dylan Galula tweeted,
I see now that this says jack into matrix for.

(01:06:11):
Ignore my voicemail she thought it said Jack off to
matrix for Miles. I wasn't listening. I was talking to
Dan through their glass. I'm sorry. Were you telling him

duo from South London, um who they basically their whole
like writing process is them just sort of like uh

(01:07:14):
like improvising in the studio and then they will sample
the ship they were just riffing on to create entirely
new tracks. It's a really it then that makes their
music a very deep it's called they're called VEST but
they're spelled v SC And this track is called zender
Z and d R and it's a man, it's funing ib.
