Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of either
one A trends or a Beamer. Um that's courtesy Uh
that that's an A t Alien song that I thought
was from the New Jersey Drives soundtrack is not on
the New Jersey Drive soundtrack. I don't think so, because
I don't think that timing line. Yeah. Also, like in

(00:20):
New Jersey Drive we got a t Aliens on the
fucking like. I feel like that is like all red Man,
if it's gonna be New Jersey Drive, it is. It
is the Bends or Beam or Outcasts. I mean. But
also it makes sense given the content of what New
Jersey Drive is about. You know me there you go. Um, alright,

(00:41):
I'm jack here, Miles, Um the jigs up. Here's uh,
here's what's trending. There is a toxic California sized algae
bed that is creeping into the Arctic um, which is
not good. UM. I'm gonna I'm gonna go out there

(01:02):
and say not not great. Um. This is courtesy of
climate change. The um these waters have never seen anything
this size before. UM, nor had any waters seen anything
that size before. But the Arctic waters I think are
an especially bad place for this. To be based on
you know, the quotes from the scientists they have, uh

(01:26):
Don Anderson, who we all know is a senior scientist
at the Woods Whole Ocean of Graphic Institute, UM, saying
it's astounding. It dwarves anything I've ever seen anywhere. UM.
I mean, which makes sense. It's the size of California.
That's a big, big algae bloom. Um. And yeah, you know,

(01:50):
the researchers worry that it could be UM lead to
mass die offs of marine species. Uh imperil the food
supply of dozens of remote Arctic communities, even caused sickness
and death and humans. UM. There are apparently oral histories
in the region about you know, red tides like the

(02:11):
ones that are sometimes caused by these lithology ballooms. But
the first time that these cysts that produced the blooms
have been documented north of the bearing straight So yeah,
so if your eyes keep your eyes locked on that space. Yeah,
Darryl Morey is trending because apparently your squad reached out

(02:32):
to hire Yeah. I'm I've just read this thing that
Daryl Morey, who I think at the time may have
been at the rockets, but either way he was someone
from Arsenal Football Club who plays soccer in the English
Premier League. Reached out to him as probably the Cronkys
because it's American sports world, and asked for his advice

(02:53):
on whether or not they should fire their coach, Arson
Benger Uh. And it seemed like his answer was like
that that guy's pretty good, you know, so you may
have trouble dealing with the fallout like of trying to
replace him. He probably should do that, really think about that,
because that's really what's at stake here. And he was right,
because the replacement didn't work out all too great. Uh,

(03:14):
and we're still kind of, you know, in a period
of fluctuation. So they asked him, should should we fire me?
Said probably not. They said, thanks for the advice, go
fund yourself. You're fired to the I mean it was
more just I think he didn't want to say either way,
but I think it was just more like it was
basically like a way of saying, like I probably would.

(03:35):
I mean, I don't know if you if you're gonna like,
you gotta make sure you do it right. You got
to really have the next phase of the of the
franchise sorted out and they didn't, um, and so we're here.
So thank you Darryl Morey um for saying he's always
looking out for you. Um. He was always been looking
out for me. Daryl Morey was carrying you that whole time,

(04:00):
did you. Yeah, it's gotta be tough for him because
he like left I think he got fired from Houston,
but like landed in Philly. Everyone was like, oh, like,
what a great spot for him. He's a you know,
he's got two generational talents there with Simmons and embiid uh.
And now he is in a bad position with somebody

(04:21):
who they can't trade, who refuses to play for them.
It's a tough break. Look, man, it ain't easy. It
ain't easy being at the top, you know. Yeah, except
they're not at the top. They're like in fourth place. Uh.
There was apparently at a wrestling match in Philadelphia, like
a w W wrestling match or some other It probably

(04:44):
wasn't w W E like some wrestling match. They sir
channing fun Ben Simmons uh and Simmons being being this
is gonna be a thing for Philadelphians for a long time. Yeah,
Megan Trainer is trending for the best possible reason she's

(05:05):
defending having side by side toilets with her husband and
uhh yeah side what also interesting a three legged jeans
and the Cereal colon blow Oh right, and I think yeah.
Her next tour is being sponsored in part by Oops,

(05:26):
I crap my pants. Um, so she has an actual
love toilet from the SNL sketch with Kevin Nelon and
now fild conspiracy theorist Victoria Jackson. Yeah. Um, and that
was that was such a golden age of um product
or it was just a golden age because I was

(05:46):
twelve and that really made me laugh. Do you remember
the other one? That was the workout system, where like
a mutant was in a box who would fucking try
and kill you, and you stayed in shape by just
trying to survive of the attacks of like the mutant
bow flex. No, I don't remember. Oh my god. It
was like this werewolf, uh like would hop out. It's

(06:09):
just the whole premise is that, like, dude, you're gonna
get in shape because if you're not, you're gonna get
absolutely killed by this thing. Right. Um, she said, to
clear things up, Okay, your sickos, we pooped once together
and we laughed and said never again. But he will
hang out with me if I'm pooping because we sool
mates and I legit miss him when I'm away from

(06:31):
him and we pee together. Abby, Um, dude, pooping together
is a I don't look do whatever you gotta do.
Um shitting, I can't. I cannot be in any state
of communication when I'm taking a ship. It's all like
me looking at something I can't get on the phone. Yeah,
we tried recording that. We won't say which one it was,

(06:55):
but yeah it didn't go. No, you'll go back, you'll know.
But that's just so weird and like I miss him
so much that I have to be near them when
I'm shitting. M hm Okay, yeah, maybe I'm just jealous
because I don't have that kind of relationship with her majesty,
And I'm like, get in here, mom, if you miss me.

(07:16):
Luke cha this wild post taco bell shit. Yeah, I'm sorry.
I just have to keep out here because I keep
This is something I've always come up with, like in
my dating life, like I would date people who would
like actively say stuff like you know, like girls don't poop. Yah. Yeah, yeah,
I definitely have heard that like, no, no no, no, they
know they're gonna girls on fart, girls on fart, and

(07:38):
I'm like, yeah, they do. And I prefer people that
do fart because that's just funnier and that means that
can fart too, and that means we don't have to
we don't have to approach this weird moment where like
who's gonna fart first? Um? But yeah, I don't. When
I when I see this, I'm like that this is
like the whole other direction. It's like I only ship
in my lover's embrace. Yeah, I I don't know which

(08:03):
is This is definitely healthier than pretending that you don't
have a human body and that you are just this
like a cartoon character of you know, desirability. That that
definitely doesn't seem like a healthy way to be. I
think this is a great as long as it's not

(08:24):
because you literally feel empty when you're not in the
physical presence of somebody. Uh. But you know, I'm taking
her words out of context. But are we just ship shaming?
Like should we have the same level of comfort around
urinating that we do around defecating, Because like, yeah, talking
to the home you're like, yeah, you're taking a piss
in the other room and like what yeah, yeah, yeah,

(08:46):
or your partner they're peeing and you're talking. That's less,
but then shifting becomes a whole other thing. The smells
terrible sometimes. Yeah. I grew up in a household that
was that did not have that have and uh of
like of like a bathroom being like, uh some I'm

(09:06):
not talking, I'm in I'm indisposed at the moment. Yeah, no,
they would. They would leave the door open and just
be like, hey, um, like the dad from Friday. Uh
that's um. And yeah, I'm not gonna get into too
many details, but i will say that I still live
in one of those households. U Okay, Yeah, so you're
just short of having dual toilets. Yeah, it's just like

(09:29):
we're we don't seek it out, but nobody is nobody.
There is no shame in our game at this point. Um,
we have that married thirteen years. So yeah, the most
will be I mean, conversations to a closed door, but
mostly because I'm like, don't talk to me right now,
I've gotta take a ship, right, like, give me thirty
seven minutes. I definitely prefer like some privacy and uh,

(09:52):
some quiet time for sure, some QT because it's another
thing also when when kids come into the equation because
they they think it's ahilarious that he was taking it dumb.
Yeah yeah, and you're like, please come on, man, are
like the one among the very first things that are

(10:14):
hilarious to them to this day, to this to this day.
All right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back.
And we're back, and uh Rick Wilson is one of

(10:36):
the heads of the Lincoln Project. You told me before
we started recording, because I was like, that was Rick Wilson.
If you've seen his face, his bald headed avatar on
Twitter all the time. Yeah, I just forgot who he was.
But he is out here saying that the January six
Commission is dead. Um, yeah, because the Democrat that's I guess,

(11:00):
don't are not coined it, or just the commission is
not going to be able to or claims they will
not be enforcing the subpoenas, or just that they're not
aggressively saying out loud, you know, in response, because I
think he's just looking at the headlines that Trump is
saying like fucking fucking ignore the subpoenas and nothing's happening
because we're not hearing like screams back from the Commission

(11:21):
basically being like get over here so we can just
fucking evisceraate you with our questioning. Here's the thing when
you there's people even like on the Commission, like I think,
um Liz Cheney was like not full, like we're actually
doing shit. It's not. Everything's out and the open and there.
There has been some indication that Trump's lawyers asked the
National Archives to try and like block the release of

(11:44):
certain documents. But so current White House is like, no
release everything, don't don't listen to these fucking people. So
I think it's just I think he just may be
frustrated as someone who's been his whole like les on
debts has been to just be like I hate Trump,
I hate him this guy. So yeah, he just might

(12:06):
not realize that in the Commission you ask for permission
to hit him. Uh yeah, you don't like me hit him?
My wife was with him. His original text makes it
sound like he has an insider info. I have some
bad news. After multiple calls, Oh, I have some extremely
grim news. Uh it's okay, Rick. As of now, one

(12:28):
six Commission is dead already and will not enforce the
subpoenas Trump wins. Uh So to say I'm livid is
putting it mildly whatever I mean if this is like
his like weird, dumb way of trying to get people
to like pressure their representatives in Congress to like get
as aggressive as he wants. Sure, you like, get him

(12:52):
do it, yeah it again. You know. It's just one
of those things where, like, even even before this Rick
Wilson to it, I'm just like, oh, believe when I
see yeah, yeah, justice for these kinds of crimes, but
I'd hope so for the good of our country. Trending
right now is this guy Rich Paul who is um

(13:15):
just coming on the radar of uh Adele fans and
just I think probably just anybody who's not an NBA fan.
He has dominated the NBA for the last like you know,
however long like ten years decades as Lebron's agent and
then increasingly you know, the one of the key power

(13:39):
brokers who determines who plays where um in the n
B A uh dude is just absolutely killing it. Um
And but it's funny to see him across other people's
radars because there's uh's uh like headlines such as who

(13:59):
is Adele his new boyfriend? Every most to know about
Rich Paul the shadow leader of the NBA. You mean yeah,
the cut says Adele's new boyfriend seems chill, but it's
just great to have somebody who's you know, who's like
a household name referred to as some old boyfriend. Yeah,

(14:21):
Adele's boyfriend. Yeah. I mean look, uh, do a little
bit of reading. You don't find out very quickly this
person has outsized power in the world in sports. Yeah.
I just remember that one tweet though, when we're first
time about Adele. Uh, when is that he's trying to
sign her to Clutch Records? I mean, guy's never not working. Yeah,

(14:45):
because you imagine he's like, I'm sorry, Adele, this was
this was all about business for me. I should have
told I thought you knew. I mean, it's at least
about both, you know, nothing's ever not. Yeahs uh, he's good.
He's got his eyes open. Uh. G T A six
baby is trending. I am sucked big. You even remember

(15:06):
this ship? G T A three right? Yeah? Man? Oh man, Well,
um no, it's not. DT six is trending because every
person on the internet is like, what the fuck is
rock Star doing again? This happened the last time rock
Star put out any bit of information about what they
think they're gonna do. I think last time is because
they said we're gonna remaster g T A five for

(15:29):
next gen consoles. You're gonna love it. I know this
title has already spanned three iterations of PlayStation because it
came out on p S three, then they re released
it on PS four, and now they're gonna re release
it on PS five, and many people like, where's the
sixth fucking game. Okay, that's g T A five that

(15:52):
came out in twenty what's oh damn, yeah, what what's
the city? It's like a it's like a fake hybrid.
It's you know, it's like southern California. Yeah, because it's
like kind of a version where it's like Monterey to
the north, and then there's like a sort of you know,
Joshua Tree Santa Barbara part very large map, I mean

(16:16):
take you a very long time to drive completely round
it in a regular car. But yeah, I don't know,
just it's just a it's like it's almost becoming a
meme where every time, like rock Star announces something like, no,
we're dusting off some older ship rather than giving you
the new ship. Um, so basically what's happening is they're
rereleasing the original three games. So g t A three,

(16:38):
Vice City in San Andreas? What city haven't they done
the Like what are people hoping they're gonna map? I
don't know, I mean anywhere. I think that the maps
are not as like relevant, Like in the beginning it
was cool because Vice City was like, Okay, cool, we're
getting this like Miami Vice type ship in New York
was in GT three. But I think more than anything,

(17:00):
people just want to have that just a huge sandbox
game like g t A because they've they were the
originators of it, of doing it, you know. Well, Um
so I don't know, I don't I don't have I
mean it would be cool to see like another continent
or another country doesn't actually always have to be like
that would be really dope. But knowing their past record

(17:21):
on cultural stuff, maybe they just stick to the US
and not piss people. Maybe, um, what is the what
is the best sandbox game to to day? And like
your meaning in or like broadly like the kind of
I have a very narrow view on it because I
grew up like loving the g t A franchise. Um,

(17:43):
but Red Dead Redemption uh two is fucking amazing. It's
like the one I hear most about. Yeah, and I
think like if you go you know, also like Ghost
of Tsushima is also sort of like that as well,
where you're just on this massive island and you're just
this m R I getting down. Um just Last Saints Row.

(18:05):
Saints Rows like a parody for like almost comedic version
of a g t A game. Um but yeah purpose yeah, yeah, yeah,
Like there was like version like there was like a
there was like a dub step gun in it that
was just like blast like wobo and like explode people. Um,
and then like the gangs that were like represented or

(18:27):
just like super exaggerated ship. But you know that's kind
of like the vibe of that game. We should have
a podcast where it's just me listening to you catch
me up on what I've missed in video games since
Mario sixty. Yeah, just like all right, me and Danna
just fighting, like do you want to take this one? Man?

(18:48):
I don't know how far back I have to go
just to describe NBA two K UM, all right, well
that is gonna do it for us this week. We're
back on Tuesday. UM. We are taking off on Monday
for International Indigenous People's Day. UM, so enjoy your Monday.

(19:09):
We'll talk to y'all on Tuesday. Until then, be kind
to each other, be kind to yourselves, get the vaccine,
don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we will talk
to y'all Tuesday. Bye bye,
