Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to season two thirty six,

his day. It's also National Odometer Day, National Limerick Day,
Limerick Day. Yeah, hell yeah, hit me, hit me with
an improvised Limerick. Oh man. There once was a man
from Nantucket there who had a shirt so long he
couldn't tuck it um And he said, with a grin

(00:44):
as he wiped off his chin, if my shirt was
a blouse, I could tuck it there. It is so
and that's why we love Limerick. My name is Jack O'Brien.
A K. You've got to pick up every switch. You
have to pick up every switch. Nintendo about to make

(01:04):

of the Witch by Donovan. And you know a reference
to the fact that not only do I play which
I I pick up every everyone what you know the

(01:26):
switch shelves stay bad because of me. Yeah, and you
told me, you said, you know you can you can
buy physical media, but you know, load up on those
those five club gigabyte d cars man, because that's where
a lot of your media is. Gonno. I was like, yeah,
that's good. That's a good point, jack Man. I can't
believe you. Remember what I said. You worked for work
the five You said, this are you gonna do? You're
gonna buy two six and then that's gonna be enough,

(01:47):
and then you go to four hundred and then that's
not gonna be enough when you should have just bought
five twelves from the jump. I wish I was ever
confident and competent enough to say the phrase, this is
what you're gonna do for somebody. I think I probably
was that confident while drunk at one point, but I've
never You don't even that confident when you talk about
reheating pizza slices. Yeah, it's true. I'm definitely. You were like,

(02:09):
here's what you do, and I was like, go on,
you get a pan, get a little drip of water
covering water comes in after a minute miles, don't people?
They gotta you gotta get it hot and crispy first.
They can put a drip of water on and that
fluffs the cross right at the end. Confidence back and
I'm thrilled to be joined as always buy my co

(02:31):
host Mr Miles gra It kind of feels like I
lost all my money on these fucking n f T
s Oh. I kind of feel like I got no
more money fucking with cryptocurrcy. Oh damn. It hurts, and

(02:53):
it feels so good. Honestly, it's bad. I've been looking
at some of I've been you know, I've been lurking
on some of these website. It's in the exchanges. It's
it's grim, like a lot of people have lost a
lot of money. And that's when you're like, oh, god man,
these poor fucking people who are like I put my
whole four oh one K into this. You're like, oh no, no, no, no, no, Now,

(03:18):
fidelities out here trying to be like, we want to
have crypto be part of our four oh one k portfolios.
You're like, no, the funk you don't. The password is fidelity. Yeah. Well,
you know. The one silver lining is, of course that
the crypto crash, the n f T Ponzi scheme that
we're all living through will create some great art. Like

(03:39):
people just who are hurt, who are going through it,
It's going to create some great art. Just like I
think there's n f T s, there's gonna be n
f t s of people's panicked tweets to be like, dude,
you want to buy these ones where they thought n
f t s were busted? You want that one now? Well, Miles,
we're thrilled to be joined in our third seat by
a hilarious comedian, one of our favorite guests and t

(04:00):
d Z Dave Girl Wants touched her arm and said, hey,
you're pretty funny. You can see her on stages everywhere
from California to London, Berlin, Singapore. It's Lydia Papa. I
can believe it. Here I am in the house. I
killed a tick that was trying to bite my leg
less than trying to five weeks ago, because I'm a

(04:20):
fucking savage out here in these streets in the woods
in Tennessee. Yeah, if you didn't know, bug season in
the South is real. Really, it's really real. Like, wait,
how do you fight a tick? Because usually in my mind,
ticks are only things you you encounter when you go
on a hike, or because I'm so concrete, this bold motherfucker, well,

(04:41):
I just I took the dog outside to play a
little ball, throw around in the grass in the front yard,
you know, in the down front yard. Come back in
of course, I, you know, tell her she's a very
good girl and that she's perfect, and I love her
and she's a beautiful little angel. And I kiss her
face and I hug her and I ruffle her little ears.
And then I sat down at my desk and then
I was like, I feel like somebody's crawling on my face.
And then I see something on my glasses. And then

(05:01):
I'm like, there's something on my glasses, and I take
my glasses off. This bold motherfucking tick jumped off my
dog had the dacity to jump onto my motherfucking face.
Sorry with all the motherfucker's, but this motherfucker jumped on
my face. And then I saw him climbing on my glasses.
So I threw my glasses on my desk and he
jumped off my glasses. And then I had matches on
my desk because I smoked weed, and I lit a
motherfucking match and then I burnt that bitch because they

(05:22):
don't like you can try to squish them, but like
they just don't squish. Like people don't realize that ticks
are like they're like little tanks. They're like cockroaches where
you know, you really got to want to kill them.
That's how you get them. If they burn into your skin,
you kind of gotta burn them out to get them
to give up on it. Yeah, So I burned that
bitch on my desk and was just like like just

(05:45):
I was horrified because I was like it was on
my face and then I stripped off all of my
clothes and changed my clothes before we started this podcast
because I was like I could be covered in ticks
right now, but I know it's because I kissed her
and it jumped off of her and she has meds,
so like you know they'll be all right, right, but still,
these guys get those tick meds. Gotta start taking your
dugs tick medication. That's what I'm thinking. Like we've had

(06:07):
people out here and like the last two house casts
of like called this afterwards, I'm like, yeah, I picked
three ticks off my body and I'm like, well, I
told you to wear long pants. Yeah, And I'm like,
if we're gonna go shooting, and we're gonna go, you know,
the ranges out in the wood, so it's like you're
gonna you're gonna get some stragglers, you know what I mean.
But Mida mass is out there also in shorts and
a tank top. Because I'm an idiot. So it's kind

(06:27):
of my fault to you thought you were safe out there.
Really was like, it's the short grass, you know, it'll
be fine. Nope, not fine. I got a question. What's
the end game for ticks there? So they burrow in,
they stick their whole fucking head into your under your skin,
and that like, isn't that the thing that like, that's
why I need to be so careful pulling them out,

(06:48):
is because their whole head will come off if you like,
what then are you thinking? I feel like they're like
the deadbeat dudes of the insect right, Like they show
up and they seem cool and they're like all beefy
and they're like, yeah, man, I just need to like
spend them out of your house or like take a
shower or whatever, and the next thing you know, they've
burrowed their fucking head into your couch and they never leave,

(07:09):
like until they die or you get them out, Like
I think they're they just their users, Like they just
suck blood and then they suck so much blood they explode,
like they turn into like grapes, like grapes size ticks.
And then what do they do? They go back and
just like they roll home and are just like worthless?
Do they take the blood back to their family and

(07:30):
just like all over it and then it's just like
carry in a tick living room. I don't know. Mosquitoes
at least are efficient. You know, they get in and
they get out. They you don't just like turn turn
your arm and like there's been one there for like
a week and it's like five pounds, and they're like
they need the blood for the babies because if they're
taking the females that bite right on mosquitoes, ohn't know, man,

(07:53):
what are they trying to lay eggs? Inst two ticks
lay eggs and you I don't think so because I
feel like I would have heard of that, right, Spiders
do famous, Yeah, And that one girl was taking a
shower at one time and well we all know what happened.
Scratched a little bump and baby spiders came pouring out.
I would cut off my fucking arm, just be like,

(08:15):
and we're done with this arm. I don't please forever, no, no, no,
I will rock that stuff from the spiders were in there.
I can't. We're never doing this again. Gotta ask you, Lydia,
what do you think of your goddess Dolly Parton's announcement
about Taco Bell the Mexican Pizza musical. What from your perspective,

(08:37):
what's going on there? She's a She's the queen, dude.
This is so fucking smart, like honestly, like that was
when the Mexican pizza came back. I was like, you
can't tell me she's not a walking saint on this earth.
Like we've all been missing that pizza. I fucking love
that Mexican pizza. I don't even like Taco Bell, but
I go there to get the Mexican pizza. Like when
I heard it was going away, I went and got
my last one and cried on that goddamn parking lot.

(08:58):
And then I saw her talking about it in an interview.
All that woman had to mention it in an interview
was just casually. I like the Mexican pizza and guess
what came back, The motherfucking Mexican pizza. So yes, we
need a musical to rejoice this, like let us all
sing together, we are the world. My question is this
is this genius business tactics because you can only imagine

(09:19):
what that dump truck of cash looked like? Or do
you think Dolly Parton is doing this because she truly
believes in it? And I'm fine either way because I'm like, honestly,
I think it's money. I think she's like, I think
she loves the pizza and thinks it's cute and then
was like, probably said no, and then they're like, here's
four dump trucks full of money, and she's like, oh,
I'll sing about a fucking pizza. Mean, there's nothing that

(09:42):
lady loves more than money and an opportunity to come
up with a clever twist of words. So I cannot
wait for like what look cute tongue in cheek ship
she's gonna be singing about Mexican pizza. It's it's probably
gonna be barely tolerable, but I can't wait. I even
for a commercial. I heard she wrote the entire Mexic
compete in musical in five minutes she wrote she wrote it. Yeah,

(10:05):
she wrote it on the top of the pizza box,
right right, right, two crunches of it. Yeah. She's like, oh,
that bite sounds like a melody. Crunch crunch, crunch, crunch,
crunch crunch. She's like print ta yeah, yeah, exactly. And
she's like, oh, when they're covered in sauce, it's a
different sound. All right Lydia, we're gonna get to know

(10:26):
you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're
gonna tell our listeners a couple of things we're talking
about today. We're talking about gen Z and the tech
savvy fighting back against union busting companies. We're talking about
Susan Collins. Is Susan Collins in this just general republican this.
But we're gonna talk about like the the grummer rhetoric

(10:48):
that's coming out of the right is really scary. So
I wanted to talk about like why why that's so
scary and dangerous? All that plenty more. But first Lydia,
we do like task our guessd what is something from
your search history? Okay, I'm gonna be real extra honest today.
This is this is this is me being very vulnerable.

(11:08):
I don't think it's gonna surprise anyone, but you know,
it's something maybe people wouldn't talk about. I I googled
yesterday because I hadn't really done any googling today, but
yesterday I googled h Jesse Williams nude images the twitters
and I was like, what's wrong? And then I was like, oh,
he's in a play. That means it's good dick. Like
they don't ask you to get naked unless you got
good dick. And I never really like, he's not an

(11:31):
unattractive man, but like he's not really my vibe, you
know what I mean, Like he sure he's got those
nice light eyes, like I'm here for it, that's fine,
but would never you know, I was like, what is
he working? What what's going on? It didn't yield any results,
but this morning on Twitter, Oh thank you algorithm, there
was somebody that had you know that posted, you know,
a repost of a repost. So I finally got to
see that dick and god damn, is that a good dick?

(11:54):
I did not like it might have been the angle,
I don't know, but it was like I haven't been
this cited about seeing a penis that I didn't think
I would like since I saw Bonnie Bobby Connor Volley's
dick and fucking goddamn it, what was that show? It
was like a show I didn't watch forever. And then
it's like he's like a fucking killer. Oh Boardwalk Empire.
Oh yeah, I didn't know that. Yeah. There's like a

(12:17):
scene where he's basically like fucking this bitch and like
dudes come in to kind of kill him and he
gets up out of the bed like literally like strokes
are down, like pulls out and then fucking just starts
blasting guns kills dude. He's covered in blood and he's
walking on the hallway and they're shooting it from the top.
So you just kind of see like a semihard dick
just covered in blood, like in guns and that's my ship.
So I wasting blood and guns. Just his dick is

(12:41):
also magnetic and has a done gun. It's like we
got you, you know, his balls a underneath with six shooters.
It was amazing. That is a great question you you
kind of posed, is what comes first when you're casting
somebody who's going to show their dick, Like do they
do they need to have seen the dick first before

(13:03):
they bring them in to that role. Is it part
of the casting process or has there ever been a
situation where they cast someone for a role and then
they're like, oh, we're going to have to recast here.
That is here's where I wasn't originally in the piano.
There's no nudity planned, and they're like, hold up, don't

(13:27):
I'm gonna need you just to stay. Just like that,
I should have knocked before it came to the trailer. However,
I'm glad i'm here. I think there's a difference between
the stage and the screen, right. I think if it's
for like a movie or a TV, it's probably like, hey,
there's some nudity. Are you comfortable with that? I don't
think there's discussion because you can shoot it from angles,
you can light it. But on the stage. On the stage,

(13:49):
there's no lies, right, you know what I mean? You
gotta have at least something that presents itself. You know
what I mean. You can't draw eyeland or in a
dick so you can see it from the back of
the room, do you know what I'm saying? Like, there's
no jumbo trauma at the play, you know, the playhouse.
So I feel like in that state case, it's like
do you have the acting chops? Okay, now let's see
that dick that doesn't play from the stage, doesn't play

(14:11):
from the stage. Yeah, we need to see you. Can
you hit your mark please? Yes, Dick? Really, it doesn't
it just you know, and it was glistening and it
was all wet and shipped. It was like fucking uh
flash dance, but like he was all in like a shower,
but just like standing up, just like very bold and yeah, man,
it looked great. I might just feel like an attraction
thing there where like the right performer will be drawn

(14:33):
to that role and the and you know, like you
don't have somebody who's like nod rather rather not like
what if we what if we didn't do that the
whole section of the play. You know. Well, And it's
interesting because like he doesn't like carry himself with big
dick energy, you know what I mean. And maybe he's
just maybe he's a shower and not a grower. I mean,
I don't know how the thing works, but like it's

(14:55):
like he was upset. He was like really concerned about
like people an audience taking pictures of his dick, and
I'm like, why bro, But I'm like, oh, because now
your secrets out, you know what I mean. Jesse Williams
was saying, though, you're right, he said that before he
was going to do that while he's terrified. But he says,
then then I I guess he was on Andy Kole.
Then I saw my dick. Then I noted that that
is what I asked God for. I asked to be terrified.

(15:17):
I asked to do something that was scary and challenging
and made me earn it and made me feel alive
and not comfortable. So yeah, I was terrified. I was
stressed out. I put my hands, my head in my hands,
and noticed that I had a giant, beautiful dick. And
then I was like, oh, no, we're good. Oh this

(15:37):
is this is great. Yeah. They showed me the film
and I was like, oh, I do have a great hog.
Let's put this on, let's do this. So yeah, man,
that's that's my search history. I was just trolling for
dicks this morning. I just was like, I gotta see
this thing. I gotta know what the fuss is about.
That's the net. What what is something you think is overrated.
You know this is controversial because everybody's doing it and

(16:00):
they love it. Travel. What are we doing? Why are
we going places? Why are we even getting our homes?
Like I'm I'm I'm, you know, traveling for comedy again
and I went to l A last weekend, came back
and it's just like I keep trying, you know what
I mean, and I'll it's just it's a lot, you
know what I mean. It's a lot. And I know
people are like, I want to get the fucking now

(16:21):
thieves and I'm gonna get walk in here, and I'm
just like, man, I can't even handle it, like it
just once you get out of the airport, it's okay,
but then it's like you're no whole new city. And
then it's like adjusting to the vibe of the city.
It's just a lot. But I'm I'm I'm using back
into it. But I'm I'm just I'm not a fan.
I don't. I don't like to travel like I used to.
I really don't. Is it because you have some like
you feel like you're living in it because you love

(16:43):
you know you ever since you moved even like I'm
fucking do you think maybe because you've kind of like
found it. You're vibrating at a new frequency too, So
maybe the travel blood lessons I think So I do
think that has something to do with it, because it's
like why would I leave, Like I'm so comfortable here,
Like I'm so on my element, like I love everything
that's happening, and then I leave and I'm like this sucks,
you know, And I come home and I'm like, thank god?

(17:06):
Do you think? Yeah, it's also just like the number
of people around. It's just like yeah, on a plane
just so, and now that people aren't wearing masks and ship,
it's like really full stupidity and full behaviors have come back.
And I'm just like, oh so we're just like fucking gross.
Just we're back to like square one, patient zero, disgusting,

(17:28):
Like have you learned nothing? Like there was a dude, maskless,
sucking raw dog took his fucking shoes off next to me,
was like peeling an egg. I was like, bro, do
you have a fucking sack full of tuna? Like what
are you doing? Like? Yeah? Another woman was changing her
baby on the seat next to her. I was like, bitch,
I know that bathroom is small, but like, do you
need to do we all need to be a part

(17:50):
of this diaper changing And it was a little boy too,
and you know how little boys me fucking popping off.
And I was just like, yo, if I get a
scored a piss over this seat, I swear to God
I will pump that baby into the bathroom and sucking
push you in there, like do not. I've never been
more on edge than looking between the seats behind me
and seeing a little baby dick and being like, what
the fund is happening like this at the bathroom? This

(18:10):
is not the bathroom, like baby fegle matter on a
seat like gross? Just everybody's hey, but you know what
this is what this is what the airline is doing
to keep you safe. We're sanitizing every surface. You're like,
do you also know somebody's ship was on this seat?
Are you shampooing the carpet that covers every seat and
underneath the seat? Plans are just so gross. It's just

(18:33):
just it's also, when was the last time you were
on a flight that wasn't like patched to the gills
with people? Never? Never? Actually the only thing so I'm
going to come out and say this, I used to
be a Southwest hater. Like Southwest, I was like fun
that greyhound in the sky. Whatever. You know. I'm statused
on other airlines, but I've flown Southwest, like the last

(18:53):
three times I've gone to l A just because it's
been cheaper and everyone else is hiking up their prices
and so I'm just like not paying for it. But
I did not realize the Southwest has a whole like
flying while fat policy. That's not what they call it,
but that's what I call it. They call it a
c O S policy. So this is just a hot
tip for fatties. If you fly Southwest, when you check in,
you can tell them I want to take advantage of

(19:14):
your CEOs policy, which means that they give you a
seat little card to put on the seat next to
you to say it so no one can sit there,
and they let you pre board, so that's in front
of the a's, so you pre board with like the
grandma's on the wheelchairs, and then you can choose whatever
seat you want and then you put that card next
to you and then no one can sit there. And
so even if it's a full fucking flight, you get

(19:34):
a seat between you, so you are the goddess that
has or the god that has two seats. And then
if you're a real you're a real one. You try
to signal another fatty he doesn't know about it, and
you will go a bit you want to sit here
because ain't no one sitting in the seat, and then
you make a new fat friend and then you're both happy.
In your high five video, somebody was like doing have

(19:56):
I talked about this already on the show, the guy
who was like, how to make sure nobody sits next
to you on a bus or like Southwest flight and
everybody who walks down the aisle just like makes eye
contact with them, smiles and then taps the seat next
next like inviting. Yeah, and everyone's just like fucking no
good yeah, or like caressed the seat that they didn't

(20:19):
like with like a finger, like yeah, I have to
just arm out, like you're just waiting for them to
sit out doing the yawn. So yeah, my my method
of just like not looking at anyone and hoping the
you know, I always used to pretend I was sick

(20:40):
because like I used to be mine too. Yeah, And
when I was working in politics, I have to go
to Sacramento so much to the capital that I got
like I had a rhythm. Getting on a Southwest flight,
I'd be like this, like so sick, like just water
in your face. Yeah, unless it was full people don't

(21:00):
to sit here somebody who's in a middle seat being like, oh,
I feel terrible. What is something you think is underrated?
All right? Man? The rumba. I bought a roomba, one
of those those vacuum robots, and you know they've been
around for a long time, but I'm like, like, how
hard is it to vacuum for yourself? What's a big deal?
Granted I haven't been a dog owner until this year,

(21:22):
and like the ive been of owned cats and like
catshoed like a motherfucker. But I always just was like
on top of it, sweeping whatever. And maybe it's also
because now I have a very large house and like
the square footage is just overwhelming. But I was literally
having breakdowns once a day because I was like, I
just swept. What happened? What is I can't like literally
losing my mind over keeping my force clean? And then
I bought this fucking rumba. Holy sh it, man, it

(21:44):
just gets everything like I said it to go at
a p m every night. Its sucking vacuums. It's loud
as ship, but I don't care because I wake up
to like clean floors like every it like it vacuums
up ship that I didn't even know it was there.
Like I can sweep and swift for my ass off.
And it's just like I feel like there's always dog there.
But when I empty that little room a thing, it's
just like chok full of dog here. And I'm like, okay,

(22:04):
so I'm not a psycho, like this is an egregious
amount of hair, but this thing is just making my
life so happy. It's just going around, it's underneath furniture,
it's just sucking up all the stuff. And I know
it's like super boring, but like yo, man shout outs
to roomba. They you you this is your first room
because I've had I had to like set up these
like training cones for it to know where it could

(22:27):
and couldn't go. It was it was like complicated and
then it can't do that. Yeah, I'm wondering if they
finally figured now. I mean, they gave me basically this
like little beacon thing that like you can stick near
something to create like a barrier or a wall, or
you can like stick it in front of like a
pet food bowl and it basically will create like a
semicircle arc that it won't go into and otherwise, Like

(22:49):
the first time I ran it, it ran for like
five hours and it basically mapped out my house and
it creates a your house, and then you can go
in and you can basically set the borders for each room.
You name the rooms, and then you can say, hey,
go clean the kitchen, and it just goes to clean
the kitchen. Or you can be like clean everywhere but
the laundry room, and it'll go and clean everywhere but
the laundy room. So you can like basically specify now.

(23:11):
But it's been like two weeks and I've been like
trying all the different ship to see if I can
like confuse it like, and it honestly has been going
up over all my rugs. It's been going up over
like the folded blanket that I used as my dog's place.
Like it's only taken out one chord when I didn't
like put the cord up. But like you do have
to make sure like there's not a dog toy, like
you know, there's a weird thing. Yeah, but other than that,

(23:34):
like it, I mean, it's been doing pretty good, Like
it hasn't gotten stuck anywhere yet. When it runs out
of like juice, that's the only thing, Like if it's
doing my whole house, because my house is pretty big,
like it'll run it out of juice and then it'll
plug itself back in and charge and then like forty
minutes later, you're like, why are you starting again? And
it's like, oh, it forgot twelve square feet by the
kitchen and it's and it goes right back to where

(23:57):
it left off. It doesn't just start over again. See notes.
I should note I had the Room Bow, which was
n version that nine nine cent store, but yeah, my well,
my experience was not great, but I was probably that's
why that's I heard all the terrible stories forever. And
then I finally like broke down and I mean, you

(24:18):
guys love it because I know you guys are Costco bros. Too,
But like it was on sale at Costco and I
was just like Costco online and they shipped it to me.
It was like a hundred dollars off. I was like, hell, yeah,
send me that room but I'll try anything. Uh. And
now I'm like, they have a mop room ba. And
so now I'm like on the prescipits, live with this room,
but for a month and if it still is good,
then I'm gonna get the mop one because you can
basically sink them, so it sends out vacuum mumba and

(24:41):
then when vacuum room is done, it sends out the mop.
So if I can get that, yo, my life is
about to change. I'm about beat. Yeah, I'm about to
like win back so much wine drinking time and weed
smoking time. At night. I'm just gonna be able to
like chill and put my feet up on my recliner
and be like, yeah, I'm about get that bitch me
and two you were watching so yeah, shout outs to them.

(25:04):
It was always so sad when I would like find
it stuck under a piece of furniture and I would
be devastated. Yeah it fell running out of a gerbil
or something like you know. And then I have an
honorary under underrated. Also like just like a second one
is a long beach airport. Have you guys ever flown
out a long beach airport? I have one Jet Blue

(25:27):
When I went to New York a few years ago. Yeah,
they have like the outdoor lobby there when you were there.
So they have redone the Long Beach Airport. I've never
been there before, but I guess I just got Redond.
It's really quiet because you know who the fun flies
out of Long Beach, right, Jeff Blue is in there anymore,
but Southwest is there. But they have a whole after T.
S A. You go through T. S A and then

(25:48):
you know how usually come into like the Chaos Hall
where like everyone's looking for, like where do I go?
There's no Chaos Hall. It's just an open courtyard, wow,
fresh air benches, tables, trees, and then to the left
is one side of the terminal and to the right
is the other side of the terminal. But like, you
can literally spend your whole two hours just outside. You

(26:09):
don't have to be in the airport. You can be
outside in the fucking sun, having a beer, having a wine,
having a water, whatever, and then you walk into the
terminal and get on your plane. It was the most
relaxing departure. I was like, yo, I'm Long Beaches out
of the way, but it might be worth it just
to like not have to deal with l A X Right, Okay,
Like so if you if you have a flight path

(26:31):
that is like workable through Long Beach, I would say,
try it. It is awesome. It was like, yo, yeah
I missed. They canceled the southwest from nashvillist to Burbank
and I'm devastated. They used to have a direct flight
and they don't have it anymore. And it's hard, but yeah,
shout out to Long Beach. L A innovated in the
outdoor malls, the outdoor high schools. According to nine O

(26:54):
two one. Now, I wasn't really and I didn't go
to high school out here, but yeah, I hadn't even
thought about the outdoor airport. That's it's next level. Man.
It was. It was really like I was. I was
actually pleased. I was just like, oh wow, yeah, I will,
I will sit in traffic to leave this airport. All right,

(27:14):
let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.
And we're back. And so you know, the big tech
has taken the idea of technological solutions and made us

(27:39):
all very suspicious. But there are still some good things
being done with technology by the people. Yeah, Like the
last couple of months, we've seen story after story about
corporate union busting and retaliate retaliatory firings for people who
are trying to organize their co workers. But you know,
like in this moment where there's a huge swell of

(28:00):
support for organized labor, many people are finding new ways
to push back and actually make things difficult for some
of these companies. So, you know, they're one of the
the tactics that have been used from people like you know,
pushing back against places like Kroger or Starbucks or Kellogg's
who have been recently in the news for their unsavory

(28:21):
business practices. They're saying, you know what we can do,
we can spam the funk out of the job listings
when these companies post for you know, essentially what they're
looking for is a like a professional union buster like
for their company. So this is from Vice talking about
in February gen Z for Change coder so Fia and
Gelli says, quote, let's talk about Starbucks in case you
missed it, they fired seven of their Memphis Memphis workers

(28:42):
who are trying to unionize. They even took it upon
themselves to launch an entire anti union website. But unions
are good. They protect workers. A super cool website that
my friends and I made that make it easy for
you to flood the application pool, essentially saying like it'll
this site will auto generate a ton of applicants using
you know, like script with python quote. It would be
a real shame if people use the website and let

(29:03):
Starbucks know unionizing is good and they shouldn't be firing
workers who try to unionize, you know, just putting it
out there essentially saying, go to this website, you can
spam the funk out of the thing, and it will
basically put their ability to hire someone like total gridlock
by like just overwhelming their inboxes with these applicants. And
something similar was even happening more not necessarily that it

(29:24):
was on TikTok and sort of getting younger people to
get involved. But the s C I you, they did
something where they're using technology to try and a B
test some things. For example, they suspected that Chippotle had
you know, some maybe some you know, some racial disparities
and who they hire for open managerial positions. So what
they did was they submitted pairings of names a white

(29:47):
applicant and a black applicant with racially distinctive names. And
they guess what they found out when they submitted six
twenty four applications, the black applicants TEP typically did not
hear back even cloth to the rate that these white
applicants we're hearing back. And so even they're they're using
that to sort of support greater arguments, say this is

(30:08):
this um what based on what we found through this
correspondence testing that we were doing, is that they there
are some biased hiring practices. So it's it's an interesting
moment because a lot of labor people have been studying
like labor movements or less and this is kind of
new because technology hasn't been used this way for worker
organizing or pushing back against companies, and it's kind of
a it is a very different moment than than usual. Yeah,

(30:32):
that one's really brilliant because that's the sort of thing
that I could see a corporation responding to is like
just a very targeted like look this we ran this test.
You guys failed. It's now in the media like you
have to do something the like gridlock one. I'm a
little bit like because I just feel like the Starbucks

(30:54):
finds a way around that or just tires like their
kids or you know, their failed suns, or you know
that they can always find a way to hire. But
like the the one where they like do a targeted
experiment publicly that proves that you're fucking racists, like corporations,
like they have to respond to that, like they're having

(31:15):
a meeting about that ship right now, right. But I
do think the twofold kind of attack though, is sort
of brilliant because it does take a light of time
and effort to go through applicants and to select ones.
So like either way, like they're hitting them in the pocketbook, right.
The internet is supposed to ease access to applicants, like oh,
and it's also the internet uses you know, well we

(31:37):
didn't see them. It's anonymity, like it's just names. So
like being able to spam them with all these and
then be able to back it up and say, oh, here,
we're also doing this experiment that like you are racist
to your point is brilliant to me because it's both
you're gonna get them politically and like kind of outward
facing and getting them in the pocketbook is very smart,
super super cool use of body technology or whatever it's called,

(31:57):
and along the way to you know, like with just
on social media, it's contributing to just massive support for
organized labor in general. You know, like you have younger
people in record numbers who are now like, yeah, this,
this is what we need to have something some seemingly
equitable future, they said. The National Labor Relations Board said

(32:17):
there was a sixty increase in like workers finding union
elections in the last six months, so like we're seeing
we're actually seeing measurable increased activity around labor organizing. And
they even said, this is the Gallup poll show that
this is the highest support since nineteen sixty for unions.
It was it's really interesting and right now, but people

(32:40):
between the eight days of eighteen and thirty four support
unions at a rate of seventy That's really interesting. That's
actually something that like I've never thought of before, right, Like,
are these younger generations aware of the labor movements that
have happened in the past, like outside of just like oh,
that was the civil rights that you know, And he
was like, no, no, no, Like, are you aware of
the literal labor movements? Like are you aware of like

(33:01):
why unions exist? I just feel like maybe some of
these younger folks haven't had exposure to this because they've
just been like, oh, I have this job, like it's
just not a thing, you know what I mean. And
a lot of people are going into more skilled jobs
as opposed to just like general labor jobs which traditionally
are supported by unions, you know, outside of Like there's
a whole labor movement going on in the cannabis movement
right now. You know, people trying to unionize, you know,

(33:23):
all the folks, and those are all staffed by a
lot of young people. It's really interesting to see this
that like maybe some people just this is their first
exposure to unionization and that. And I think, like on TikTok,
like I'm even learning about the union history from TikTok
users too. So there there's like a that dance must
go hard wid My knees are a little too weak

(33:44):
to get that low sometimes. How many death drops I
busted the back of my head trying to hit a
death drop. I didn't realize how you're supposed to land.
I just threw my body to the ground. Kay. But yeah,
this is I think it It's just like it's it's
hardening to hear people who have been observing, like labor

(34:04):
movements say, like typically workers have been way behind trying
to combat union busting because typically companies are so well
funded that it's just a different landscape. But now because
of technology, social media, like it's allowing for a lot
of you know, people to experiment with ways to try
and expose things or pushed back. And a lot of

(34:25):
this did start. If your member was back in Texas
when they were talking about like doing the anti abortion
bills and there was a user who was like, you
can you know, spam that website to try and get
people to you know that where it's like you can
report somebody and they're like, well, how about we flood
your website with nonsense And then that you know, they
ended up having to shut the website down. So there's

(34:46):
a lot of a lot of things going on, but
it's you know, this is this is the way the
youth them are getting involved. Well I'm happy to hear it.
And it's cool to see technology being used for something
that actually you know, not that it's not used for
things that are beneficial, but you know what I'm saying, Yeah,
that's cool to see the kids are the kids are
all right, man and tech savvy to them, like, man,
you want me to do what with python? A script?

(35:09):
I don't like snakes dog? Yeah exactly, Like, hey, I'll
pick it. I don't know how to do that other
ship though, And so I think we're also seeing is
like young more people are at a younger age or
just getting such diversified skill sets because of like the
amount of information that stuff. You can like train yourself
and so many things if you have the will to
do it. So it's interesting to see it all express
itself in this way. Yeah, that's it's also a nice

(35:31):
counterpoint to all the gen Z is actually fucking conservative, dude,
the headlines that Business Insider is coming through with. And
there there's that person that MSNBC lead on who is like,
I'm a pro life gen Zer and actually the majority
of gen Z eight out of ten or something that

(35:51):
person said, yeah, which later not true, putting that person
on TV. Yeah yeah, all right, let's talk speaking of
the ban on abortion that may be coming our way.
So Susan Collins, who has been like kind of a
key figure in this whole fight because she was like
always the hope that maybe she wouldn't be she wouldn't

(36:15):
vote for Gorstch or Kavanaugh or Coney Barrett because she's
supposed to be a moderate Republican had so people have
been asking her, what you said, that you were only
voting for them because you thought they would not overturned Row,
and her responses not that she regrets supporting them, but

(36:35):
that they lied. They lied. Do you believe it? She
quote if these leaked draft opinion, if this leaked draft
opinion is the final decision decision, and this reporting is accurate,
it would be completely inconsistent with what Justice Gorstch and
Justice Kavanaugh said in their hearings and in our meetings

(36:56):
in my office. She claims she's always been saying, they
told me that role was settled law, that it was precedent,
that that was that's that's done and dusted. Meanwhile, Chuck
Schumer was saying things at the same time. He said,
when I spoke to Brett Kavanaugh, he wouldn't answer yes
to the question of whether Row was settled law when
I asked him, m hmm. So he made it clear

(37:18):
to me where he was at, and he lied to
your little naive as saying, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's
that's settled. That's settled, man, So I got your vote.
Good good. Watch this ship. Now it's a very you know,
it's it's it's dishearten. I don't know, it's disheartening because
every time like it would come down to Murkowski and
Collins and like, can they will they figure out that
these are bad people to put on the bench. Uh,

(37:39):
And they never did. So now she's dealing with a
little bit of a fallout. People are upset obviously at
what you know, this leaked opinion is indicating, and in
a horrific display of partisan terrorism, Susan Collins woke up
to her side something written on her sidewalk in front

(38:01):
of her home in colored chalk, and threatened, don't don't
if I say this out loud. I don't want to
secret service coming from me. But I'm gonna say it
because I'm a fucking rebel. Just you know, turn this down.
Turn this down. If you have people around you that
you can here, okay, you're you're about to be your
your heart rate is going to speed up a little
bit and justin you might have to bleep this out

(38:22):
just to protect me. But I'm gonna say it because
we're brave. Here it said, quote, Susie, please maynards want
w h p A, which is the Women's Healthcare Protection Act?
Vote yes, clean up your mess? Oh my god. And
it was written in menacing chalk. Yes. And I do
want to point out that the dot above the eye

(38:44):
is a tiny uterus. So this is very threatening. You know,
there's there's not only block letters, you know what I mean,
and multiple colors of chalk, there's an additional iconographic This
is threatening. This is very threatening using such an informal
way to address a senator Sthie, for real, are you

(39:06):
trying to set my house on fire with that talk?
What is going on? So, you know, she did what
any responsible white woman would do in this situation, called
the police. So she called the police and said, there's
something awful outside my house. Can collect DNA samples? How
do we how do we get to the bottom of this?

(39:26):
Who they tried? The cops showed up and they said
all right, and they left. A city sanitation worker came
and just power washed it off. And then the comment
from the police was, this wasn't an overtly threatening message.
So I just like the mental space of this person
right to know that when you when you're out here

(39:47):
being like, I'm convinced this person is gonna take away
your rights, even if you'd maybe believe it or really
don't believe it, and then seeing the the fallout from
your behavior and then being like, this is awful. This
is terrible. What's going on? Like the disconnect there with
what you're vote meets is really wild. Let's also talk
about the white woman in her neighborhood fucking chalk bitch,
make a sign, cover her fucking yard and signs, tick

(40:07):
a ship on her porch, put a fucking paper flag
and it's that's shaped like a uterus, and be like, bitch,
what I'm gonna have all my unwanted children on your
motherfucking front lawn. Vote yes, Like I just I think
we need to be a lot louder about this. I'm
just like this little cute, little fucking sidewalk drawing, get
out of here, bitch, Susie please please, Oh my god, Susie,

(40:33):
comma please. That's yeah, very very threatening stuff. And the
tone police are out in full force. You know, still,
whether it's this or other people like Democrats been like,
I don't know if Brett Kavanaugh deserves to have all
this ruckus by his house, you know what I mean?
Like they're already advancing bills to protect Supreme Court justices. Yeah,

(40:57):
like wow, okay, what happened to, like, you know, codifying Row. Yeah,
because you're like, no, no, no, I know you don't.
Don't bring the smoke to a Supreme Court justice's house. No, no, no,
Because again they're revealing it's very clear what they're trying
to reveal. They want to maintain the status quot No,
not necessarily that they they're saying, we want to protect
this overturning of Row, but they certainly don't want a

(41:20):
reality where people are organizing in mass and voicing their displeasure,
because that's the road to o Where is the power
then at that point, also, it's not please or thank you,
it's please and thank you. So if they didn't want
to be threatening, it should have been Susie, please, maynards
want w h p A, but clean up your mess,

(41:41):
thank you. So clearly this is the work of al Qaeda,
I would say, mm hmm. I mean it's just wild.
You know, you have Chris Coon's and John corn and
a Democrat and Republican. They're introducing the bill with unanimous
support to provide extended security protection for the immediate family
members of Supreme Court Justices. And you're not you're not

(42:04):
connecting the fucking dots. But listen, there are they are
but bombs with tumblers full of white wine and sprite
and a fucking pocket full of chalk. You know what
I mean. It is a dangerous world out here, Miles.
You're right, now, you're right, you're right. No, yeah, let's
take a quick break. We'll be right back. And we're back,

(42:37):
And I want to talk about like what we were
just talking about, basically the fact that when somebody writes
on someone's sidewalk and chalk or quietly protests out the
outside of someone's house, and it's protesting a right wing
policy being promoted by white Bible thumping men like they're

(43:01):
the reaction is to protect the Bible thumping men. But
on the other hand, I think a trend that is
being there's just kind of been normalized just because it's
like one of many pieces of bad news, but the
whole like rhetoric coming off of the right that like
anybody who talks to children makes room for children to

(43:25):
have questions or even have gender affirming healthcare or you know,
messages around them is a groomer. So this guy, Jack
Califano tweeted last night the groomer and pedophile thing are
the clearest moment where where I thought, oh, wow, they're
really they really are planning on killing a lot of

(43:46):
people eventually, because like if you read about genocides in
history like Rwanda, you know, like modern history, all it
takes is like government come flicity, which not hard to
imagine Trump administration and a source of information that is

(44:06):
just like reinforcing this messaging over and over again. And
Rwanda was like radio state radio. But like, I don't know,
it's just we're in a really dangerous place and I
don't know how it gets less dangerous before, you know,
Like we we've seen story of people accosting families with
kay parents and public telling them, telling the kids they

(44:29):
need to get away from their parents because they're groomers.
And in the mainstream we've seen like the panic over
like the quote from a Disney call where they're just
talking about spreading acceptance and messaging about like acceptance and
diversity and their work, and they've turned that into like
they're trying to brainwash our kids and like groom them

(44:51):
to like victimize them. So actually, I don't know, it's
like that that tweet really like struck me as like
actually really true and kind of like something we should
be thinking about more and not to be like we
we need to be like terrified. But this is a
very like dangerous undercurrent that's only getting like louder and

(45:13):
more surface level. I feel like I think people should
be more terrified. Yeah, yeah, I mean it's it's terrifying
overall because this is also a smoke screen for coming
from real pedophiles. Yeah, do you know what I'm saying, Like,
I mean, let's let's let's really look at this even further.
This is a complete you know, this is a tactic

(45:34):
in a group of people that we know are involved
in trafficking and sex rings with children. And now that
it's like, you know, to kind of reapply and to
sort of project this onto you know, the gay population,
and to try to use sort of the widespreadness of
us trying to like understand more and to try to
be accepting of trans people of all ages. Right, you know,

(45:55):
this is a scary time and we should not be
going backwards and forgetting and like it just it sucks
because when you use things like pedophilia, it makes it
easier for people to be pedophiles, right because people to
redirect that attention somewhere else. And it's like, meanwhile, there's
kids that are being hurt, Like I don't want to,
you know, say that we shouldn't be aware of that
because that is a real problem. But like it's such
a slippery slope to move into be like no, now,

(46:15):
let's just kill all gay people because gay people are
the reason why pedophilia exists, and that's that they're not
the same thing that that's they're told the conflation is
precisely what they're going for. And I mean, you just
even look right because for all the talk of like
you know, you're gonna have to vote your way out
of this or whatever, I mean, do you look at
the maps and how jerrymandered there are. It's most political

(46:39):
forecasters like I don't think that I don't know how
the funk the Democrats are going to get a real
majority in the Senate. Again, if you look at how
these maps are going out, the jerrymandering works of voter suppression,
that are they even thinking about it from their perspective too,
it's like the deck is getting stacked increasingly, and it's
a chance of of like being able to turn over

(47:01):
politicians at a high rate is not very realistic. And
I think the other thing that people don't realize too
is how gridlocked state houses are too, especially in red states.
It's it's very difficult. So I think, I don't know,
I mean, I think this is this is just something
that generally deserves more awareness because, like, like we're saying,
even with this, with how Aldo is talking about this decision,

(47:25):
the logic is almost it's basically boiling down to it's
not literally in the constitution, it's not a right, yeah
Jesus Christ. So that leads to gay marriage, that leads
to contraception, that leads to so many other things like that.
Now some states aren't going to do it the way,
you know, like everyone, but like we said, like we
touched on yesterday or the day before, how this could

(47:46):
also lead to like interest state legal battles about trying
to extradite people like to say this this doctor gave
abortion care to this person from the state where it's illegal,
and now want to charge you with attempted murders something
like that. That is another quagmire that is, you know,
on the horizon as well with as with things get
more litigious, and fraud and accusations of like child abuse

(48:09):
and child murder and things like that are always heavily
involved in you know, the early stages of a build
up to genocide, Like the anti Semitic belief that Jews
were ritually murdering children was like a big part of
like blood libel, which eventually you know, led to the Holocaust,

(48:33):
you know, and all of this would be like less
concerning if we didn't live in a society where right
wing violence is like tolerated and left wing protesting for
human rights is equated with terrorism. Like that is that
is the mainstream response, Like that's you know, we we

(48:55):
talked about it with Susan Collins, but there has been
so much right wing extremism, and like the response from
the right is to like openly put like screen a
documentary where they're like, this is an attack on you,
like something that like amps up the rhetoric. Like Tugger
Carlson had that like January six like documentary that was

(49:18):
basically claiming that any sort of attempt to address right
wing extremism is a like political act by the left,
political act of like attacking, and it's just so dangerous
and heading in a more dangerous direction, and there's just
like nothing really pushing back on it, you know. Yeah,

(49:40):
I mean again, why it's even more important to begin
looking in your own community and understanding, like you know,
those how mutual aid is works because it you know,
there are there are there's there is a possibility for
a positive outcome. But the way leadership is now in
this country, it's it's hard to know that. I mean,
there's just like they're so out of touch with everything

(50:02):
that's happening. Katie Porter, who's the congress congresswoman from California
who regularly gives really moving speeches or like interrogates bankers
or other people. She and apparently like in a closed
session meeting with other Democrats, she like got really emotional
just talking about how expensive like just literally bacon is
at the store and how many families are looking to

(50:25):
be like holy sh it, sandwich bread is like five bucks,
Like how the funk do And now I'm on the
search for something that's like under four or cereals like
seven or six and a half, and she was talking
about just her experience as a as a provider, and
the the the and the even the stress. She fell
to be like, I don't know if I can buy

(50:45):
ten dollars a ten dollar pack of bacon when I
go to the store. And apparently she was saying after that,
she said it was the first time she saw her
colleagues kind of connect with what she was saying, and
they said, but this isn't showing that. She said. Somebody
came up to another congressman and said, this isn't showing
up in the polling, and she said, you're not asking
the right fucking question, correct. And that's I think so

(51:10):
revealing is that so many there's only like a handful
of people that are in Congress that are like, man,
this ship is so bad for normal people, Like half
of y'all are millionaire, mostly are millionaires, So what the
funk would you know about? Like you barely bad and
eye it's five dollar blow for for bread because the
five dollars nothing to you. But if you have a

(51:31):
budget and ship's increasing by orders of like twenty percent
at a time, that throws your whole fucking life off.
And that's the thing that they're not connecting within so
many other things that you know, like every even like
n g O s that are talking about the rise
of fascism in the U S. They're like, Yeah, the
way to combat it would be to combat inequality. Yeah, yeah,

(51:53):
that's it. Don't don't allow the tension people experience to
be co opted by other people's narratives, say to put
fascism and ship in their head and be like, and
that's why you're broke. Well, I think it's so important
to like people on the coasts, you know what I mean.
It's so easy because we do make more money people
who live on the coast, you know what I mean,
then the rest of the country. And I think it's

(52:13):
so easy to get out of perspective, to get so
angry about the wrong stuff, you know what I mean,
And not that like there's right stuff and wrong stuff,
but they're kind of is you know what I mean,
Like you need to be aware of what all these
decisions are doing and how they're impacting the people that
live in the middle and live in other areas like
being down here, correct, you know, it could be the

(52:35):
other side of the city that you don't drive to
that you don't see, you know what I mean, It's
like you just need to open your eyes and be aware.
Like being down here there South is definitely like given
me a new perspective on everything, you know what I mean,
because there's just such a huge juxtaposition of very very
poor and people who are just like not on the internet,
you know what I mean, and just stuff that is

(52:57):
a little bit different. But it's there's such a divide
in our country and it is terrifying. It's terrifying and
it's sad. And I think we just need to be
able to get over like our philosophy as a nation
that needing help is bad because I think that that's
that mentality extends to you know, men in the just

(53:17):
ridiculously high suicide rates and other things like there's just
there's not a culture of saying you're vulnerable in this country,
and that's that's not okay because like, oh, what you're poor? Okay,
how poor are you? Do you deserve this? Like what
the fuck I said? I need help? I said I
can't afford food, and now you're means testing this ship.
I just need help or and and the shame that

(53:39):
goes along with that and I think, and that we're
constantly making people feel ashamed of that rather than saying
we need to just embrace people that need help and
that's fine. People need to be more open to say
I mean not to say people aren't expressing that, but
culturally that's still we're still not at that point where
we lable yeah, and we embrace that. And there's not

(54:01):
a full time job's worth of work to get the help,
which is current way it works. You have to suddenly
work twenty hours a week to just manage the insane,
insanely understaffed system of the government and government subsidies and help,
and all those offices are only open during the hours
that you are at work, and your children, you know,

(54:22):
are are not at school. So it's like you have
to sacrifice either your own job, your child care, or
your child's education in order to facilitate, like you said,
getting those services. Right, there's some stuff you can't even
do online. You gotta go in there. You gotta show
them some piece of paper, you gotta you know, it's terrible.
It's like how you suck someone to work and then
you also come in here between eight and two pm.

(54:43):
And that's how we save money. That's how the government. Yeah,
and then we can still pat ourselves on the back saying, hey,
I signed that bill not allowed for that, but yeah
but we but we we kneecap that little provision to
the point that did is gonna do fun all. Don't worry.
But I can help tell them for money and resources
to take advantage of every break the government wants to

(55:06):
give them as corporations and rich people. Lydia, such a
pleasure having you as always. Thanks. Where can people find you?

It made me laugh so hard. I can only describe
it because it's a video, and then you can try
to find it. And I won't give the person a
shout out it is because there's like an only fans
person and I think they probably do porn and whatever.
So the tweet is just the words say this clingy,
and then it has kind of like a smirky face,
and then the video is a girl laying down in

(57:18):
a dude's lap just using his dick to scroll her phone,
and it's fucking hilarious. She's like scroll using it like
a what's it called, like a depend like a stylus. Yes,
and she's like she's I'm watching it now. It's so funny.

is very funny. So shout out to that couple, because
