It's a day of imagination and creativity day to think
of all the fund ways in which patches can be.

Speaker 5 (03:34):
Used in our every day physical patches. It's I and
otherwise though it's pretty cut and dried. What what patches
often used for this holiday? Encourage us to think outside
the box and new.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Paths outside the box and put a patch on it.
National days that make me encourage me to think outside
the box. Got to you know, we do things a

That one courtesy of David Lesser in the discord in
reference to the fact that I think my dad would
love me to stop bringing up but the fact that
when he was a youngster growing up in tiny apartment
uh seven brothers and sisters, that they would compete to

(04:47):
see who had the biggest poop and save the big
the big ones in a shoebox show one another, and
that was before we had self. It was like the
same shoebox. I don't know, I think it only I
think it only happened once. My dad, like when I
I knew that, I remembered this legend from childhood and
like talked about it on the show, and then my

(05:09):
dad was eager. He was like, your uncle did that
and he only did it once, Which is so funny
that one time your uncle saves a giant log and now
his whole identity. Yeah.

Did not know you had to put sunscreen on a tattoo.
You did that on purpose? Yeah, give me the blurry one.

(06:20):
I want to I want to look like you're drunk
when you look at That's how blown out this thing
has become. And then it's just been, like I said
on the Trending episode yesterday, just this is the I
think the best thing though, is I'm a fan of
the Lakers, who have won pretty frequently. Being a Dodger
fan also recently become very spoiled. Titles hit differently when they're.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
When you're waiting sucks.

Yeah, when your team fucking sucks and gets laughed at
and is a joke for like many years.

Oh thanks man. Yeah guys, yeah, Joey, how are you doing.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
I'm doing okay. So yeah, I'm doing so good. I'm like,
I just mentioned you off air. But I got a
book coming out in October. We just sent it out
to the printers a little bit ago. And writing a
book is hard work, y'all. It's like way longer than
a tweet, you know. It's like it's like two hundred
and twenty four pages. It took so long, right, And once.

Speaker 4 (08:48):
You got to two hundred and twenty four, did it
start to like turn red and say you were over

the Whole Time. A not so Sacred guide to all
things Data America. Thanks for holding out these bookmarks. It's
like a comedy history book about like all the native
history you weren't taught in school. It's kind of like
if The Onion or The Daily Show wrote a book about
Indian country comes out October sixth, but you can preader
right now. And something I feel like a lot of
not a lot of authors say, is that, like preorders
matter so much in the book world, Like if you

(09:44):
pre order copies, it tells the publisher to promote the book.
So please, it's twenty dollars, it's the cost of a
movie ticket.

Pre order it.

Yeah, what's the give Give me like a taste of
some of the you know, some of the fun learnings
that we can expect you.

Oh yeah, for sure.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
There's an entire runner of just a list of people
who are not invited to the pow wow, including hits
like Christopher Columbus john Ley.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
Interjection inter Jackson actually is there, Yeah, he's there.

Speaker 2 (10:12):
I actually have a fun in like that chapter. I
visited Andrew Jackson's like the house that he lived in
in Nashville a couple of years ago when researching for
the book, and they tell you not to take a
picture of the of the bed that he died in,
and uh, there's like a lot of signs saying, like
to respect him, you should not take this picture. And
let's just say I took a picture of the died
in guy.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
Yeah, kissed the captain Morgan.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
Yeah, your bit like dirty ass boots on. Yeah, yeah,

your college, if you want to bring me out to
your company, if you want to have me like, I
don't know, just like yell about Christopher Columbus in the
parking lot of your job. Yeah, I'll totally do it.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
Let's do it. There we go, all right, well, congratulations
on that. Yes, and we're going to get to know
you a little bit better in a moment.

Speaker 4 (11:14):
First, we're going to tell the listeners a couple of
things we're talking about today. We are going to talk
about the Slash fund or friends of Trump who have
been who've been targeted unfairly, sons and daughters of the insurrection,
that that's what they call their organization.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
We'll talk about that. We'll talk about the fact that
everyone suddenly remembering that Elon Musk canceled ebola prevention. Remember
that for some reason, that's coming up again, So we're
to talk about that. We do just have to check
back in with Donald Trump's self dealing as he I
don't know it, Like they just revealed this thing that's
kind of wild about like trades that he made ahead

(11:53):
of you know, privileged information. Yeah, yeah, I think we
like mentioned it offhandedly, but.

Speaker 4 (11:58):
We mentioned that there were thirty five hundred stock trades
in the first quarter alone, so wild.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
Yeah, Hey, if you knew that info, you'd like you
do that right if it was legal and nobody was
ever going to do it.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
I'd imagine if I wanted to be the president, I'm
already fucked to that.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
Yeah. Yeah, bro, I'm fucking making hell Yeah. One of
the most important details or like stories to put him
into context, the two that I always come back to.
One is like when his neighbor when he was like seven,
left their baby in the backyard and came out and
was like, why is the baby crying? And he was
throwing rocks at the baby. It's like, as a seven
year old there, I mean, who would do that? And

(12:36):
then the other one is the Spy magazine sent all
the millionaires in New York City a check for like
one hundred dollars and then fifty dollars twenty five down
to one penny. And the only person who was the
only millionaire who checked it all the way cashed the
check all the way down to one penny was Donald Trump.
And I feel like that is important to keep in

(12:57):
mind because it's like, why would he why would he
keep doing just basic garden variety scams? And it's because
he doesn't give a fuck whether it's making him a
penny or a billion dollars.

Speaker 4 (13:13):
He's doing the Bilbo baggings. When he found the ring,
He's like, why shouldn't I keep it?

Speaker 1 (13:18):
He does that any amount of money, that's right? Why not?
Why shouldn't I keep it? Hey? Why not? Why shouldn't
I throw rocks at this baby?

Speaker 3 (13:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (13:26):
Yeah, why shouldn't type We're gonna learn that he has
like ice doing graveyard shifts, just like cleaning out wishing
wells for like, that's why they drained. The reflects belong
to pre in there. So we'll talk about that and
then we'll laugh at a robot failing to dance to
Michael Jackson. I've seen that video. I love it so good.

(13:47):
It's it's crazy because it's also so good at dancing,
you know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (13:51):
Yeah, I mean for a robot. But I got to
say I think as I'm always thinking of, like the
shitty robots work crying down the US to me, which
is the real indicator that we are a country and
decline like in the Dancing Robot Wars.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
Dude, we're putting out jokes. The CIA put those steps
there to be like we can't, we can't there before
all that plenty more, But first, Joe, we do like
to ask our guest what is something from your search
history that's revealing about who you are.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
So something for my searching history that reveals who I
am is Uh, what what's Daria Morgendorf for from MTV's
Daria up.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
To like in real life?

Speaker 2 (14:30):
No, no, okay, it was. It was a woman named
Tracy Grandstad. She was like a writer for a lot
of MTV shows in the nineties and basically, like MTV
animation was just like really cheap at the time. Yeah, so,
like Mike Judge voiced pretty much every character on Pivisonpothead,
not because like he wanted to, but just to save money.
But they just like needed somebody to voice like a
female character, and they were like, Tracy, you're in the office,

(14:51):
get in there, you know.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
And she does a great Jobeah, her performance is like
so dead. Yeah, well I think that's just how she talks. Yeah,
but yeah.

Speaker 4 (14:59):
So does a great job talking how she talks. Yeah
for sure, for sure, that whole Yeah, that's a voice actor.
I have one mode and that mode is me.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
But yeah, so it was at first it was just
like I guess, sort of what this who voiced that
character and all that stuff. It turns out that in
the mid two thousands, she just became like an exec
at Comedy Central and now she's like still a very
high level like vice president at Comedy Central, And like
that kind of got me thinking about like I like
I get flown out to like talk to a lot

(15:29):
of like schools and kids and stuff, and they were
like these kids at this one school a little bit
ago that asked me like, oh, have you ever felt
like starstruck talking to celebrity? And like usually the answer
is no, But like if I was on a call
and I heard Daria's voice, yeah, I like kind of die.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
You're like wait, what the fuck?

Speaker 4 (15:46):
Ye would you be like, I'm sorry, this is going
to sound crazy. Are you did right again? Because like, hey,
can you say the sentence mysstic spiral?

Speaker 1 (15:59):
It's interesting. County Central had interesting taste, like they would
hire talented people like frequent guest Andrew t wasn't a
Comedy Central exec for a little while. Really the head
of Comedy Central was the guy who Kent Alterman, the
guy who directed Semi pro Wow was like the lead

(16:20):
of Comtey Central for like a long time. They were
just like I don't know, are you funny? And like creative?

Speaker 4 (16:25):
Right?

Speaker 1 (16:25):
Good. You're an executive now.

Speaker 4 (16:27):
I mean that's kind of a that's a good business model.
I know, we're running a comedy company when they were
doing just fucking killing it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is
all about like having a good eye for comedy.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
So where did you get your Mbayeah.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
Harvard Finance got it. The numbers are hilarious. Did you
read the lampoon?

Speaker 1 (16:46):
The what question? Yeah? What is something you think is underrated?

Speaker 4 (16:53):
Joe?

Speaker 2 (16:53):
Okay, So originally I was going to say Little Caesar's Pizza,
but we started talking about this before recording, so I'm
going to say lifting weights. Hell, yeah, we were talking.
I started lifting weights with a trainer like three years ago.
I'm in the middle of like a cut now. But
like you know, this is an audio medium. If you're
not watching the video, I'm jacked ship, Like my friend is.

Speaker 6 (17:14):
Just my muscles. But I steel like a spatula were
having your neck, It's gone. It's gone, man, I had
them and replace it with HG.

Speaker 4 (17:25):
Dude, your jaw hinges melting into your traps.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
I talk like poor protein in there.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
But yeah, I don't know, like lifting weights is like, look,
I was somebody who probably didn't do any more exercise
other than like lifting up my phone to do scroll
up until really recently. And it's like lifting weights is
this really cool nice thing because it's like I feel
like it's the it's one of the few things that
you can kind of like control in life, which is
just sort of like oh the number goes up, you
know lifting a thing, Yeah, you lifted a thing you

(17:55):
did more than last week, or you know, like or
just like oh you like look a little like or
cut or whatever. So it's just a good like to
be a well round person. Yeah, Miles just started working out.
He's looking cut a ship. His jaws also.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
Muscle frozen. I mean.

Speaker 4 (18:13):
But it's also like one of those things like so
many like studies after study after studies, like you know,
like it's like actually lifting weights is good for your
long term health, like not in like a body building
with like just the practice of like lifting. I'm trying
to get my mom to do it because it helps
with like help cross right right.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
I feel like for a long time, cardio was like
the only thing that people really like paid attention to
was like going if you wanted to get into shape,
you like you know, ran or like which has its
own benefits, but like I feel like weightlifting was just
for Arnold Schwartzenegger. You know, it was just like for
people who went went to the gym. And now I

(18:53):
do feel like, yeah, they we were starting to properly rate.
Still underrated, I agree, but yeah, iwitch.

Speaker 4 (19:01):
And your elderly parents. I'm telling you cause I'm sure
we all have parents that are a fucking broken hip
away from life being drastically.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
My mom is jacked.

Speaker 4 (19:11):
There's no way, dude, the floor, there's no way anything
could even get to her hip bone because of all
the muscles packed on around that. But I mean, like
that's the thing, Like it's really good for like restoring bone,
like it that's a that's the thing I keep trying
to tell my mom because my grandmother broke her hip
and it was like very complicated and like please, like
I know you're active. She's like I garden all the time,
like and that's good. Yeah, but like just add just

(19:33):
and add this like a fi pound weight just to
like yeah.

Speaker 1 (19:36):
I was like, I'll get you a resistance band, whatever,
I'll get you really hard, really heavy gardening tools exactly
a little bit heavier everywhere.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
Yeah, Well, one thing I love about weightlifting too, that
like I didn't really expect is like I'm not a
very well rounded person.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
I'm somebody.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
I play video games, I love Garfield, I watch pro wrestling,
But like weightlifting, it gives me something to talk to
just other random pe people about. So it's like there
are times where like I'll go to a party and
I'll just like see a group of bros who are
thrown out, and then like somebody will mention, like like
somebody will offer me a snack, and I'll be like, oh,
I'm sorry, I'm gonna cut or like I'm like watching
my macros. Then all of a sudden, like everybody's eyes

(20:14):
light up and they're just like.

Speaker 1 (20:15):
Oh how many how many rows?

Speaker 3 (20:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (20:17):
Yeah for sure. Yeah truly, it's just like oh what
protein shakes everybody.

Speaker 7 (20:22):
Doing like yeah, yeah, yeah, that's it.

Speaker 4 (20:25):
It's definitely like sports similar like it's just like having
like dumb shit to talk to people about.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
Yeah right, it is like really really helpful.

Speaker 4 (20:33):
It's the same way like people I know who like
run long distance, they see other long distance runners and
all the time I was like running and I'm like
my brain turns off because that's my nightmare scenario is
running for more than ten minutes.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
I couldn't help but notice that you're in the in
need of a knee replacement. Do you also run long distances?

Speaker 3 (20:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (20:50):
Right? What is something, Joey that you think is overrated?
Something I think is overrated? I'm gonna say the sun.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
I think I think the Yeah, finally, yeah, I know
the Sun's been up there all high and mighty for
a really long time.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yeah, I don't know. I think that.

Speaker 2 (21:05):
Like my my girlfriend gets Maddy about this. I don't
like doing a lot of stuff during the day because
I like sunburn very easily. So like I'm always like,
whenever I want to go for like a walk around
the block, orerever, I want to go on a date,
it's always just like, oh, let's do it at like
seven pm.

Speaker 1 (21:20):
Right, Like sun goes down.

Speaker 2 (21:21):
Yeah, yeah, the sun goes down just because it's like cooler,
more relaxing. Also, I might be part vampire, who knows?

Speaker 1 (21:27):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (21:29):
I'm sure you didn't like the when I pulled out
that bulb of garlic earlier.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
Oh yeah, I eat my eyes. Oh yeah, my own macross. Yeah,
my eyes turned red and then I grew fat.

Speaker 7 (21:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (21:38):
Yeah, we all remember that, and I didn't want to ask.
I don't want to be insensitive and like a cultural thing.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
Yeah, like the ending of Sinners. I was really bummed
out because like, yeah, you know, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
I think the sun's had it too good for too long.

Speaker 4 (21:53):
Yeah, what about the morning sun? You know that's a
good that's good for your morning. Sounds like strong's still
the sun. Oh yeah, you know you're like, I'm not
trying to see that, motherfucker.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
Oh yeah, yeah. If I see the sun, it ain't
a good day. Do you have any UV shirts? Sir?
You don't have any TV shirts? I do have a
UV hoodie though. I'm hearing a lot and you got
all the answers. Yeah yeah. I also have a black
and red cloak I wear places.

Speaker 4 (22:18):
Yeah yeah, sure, sure, got this bed that blocks out
all light by having this fully sealike and angel.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
Yeah, real worried about buff. If Willow shows up, I'm
going to be scared screwed. I got no defense. Don't
attack me when I'm sleeping, please don't.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
It was weird. I was like, man, you're looking pretty buff,
and you like freaked out. You're like what.

Speaker 4 (22:45):
Sorry, Yeah, let's take.

Speaker 1 (22:50):
A quick break and we'll be we'll be right back
and we're back. Yeah, let's let's check in with the doj.

Speaker 4 (23:08):
CA here for the five o'clock Free Insurrectionists giveaway, Give
it away, give it away.

Speaker 1 (23:14):
Giving it all away. Now, I don't know if I'm
a criminal or a win nor.

Speaker 4 (23:18):
So Yeah, we talked about the d j IS January
sixth sweepstakes fund that they're setting up in the name
of quote anti weaponization. Essentially like anyone that was pursued
for crimes they committed in the name of Trump or
eligible for a payout, you know.

Speaker 1 (23:34):
The weapon Like what do they think that means?

Speaker 4 (23:36):
Because they're saying it's unfair that you would go after
like former cabinet officials that were a party to trying
to overturn election consults or some ship.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Okay, you were doing there was some quote marks in that.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
Oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (23:52):
For them, again, it's just as because it's hard to
try and wrap your mind around it, Like, how.

Speaker 1 (23:58):
Could you have a legal argument for this? They fucking don't.
There's just naked accusing everybody else of doing the thing
that they're doing.

Speaker 4 (24:04):
Right, Yeah, absolutely, And then I'm also like, can can
people who got like, you know, beat up and bat
it up by DHS agents and stuff.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
They can.

Speaker 4 (24:12):
They also, because I felt like political weaponization, they get
double that's not that's not weaponization at all.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
They just got hit with a weapon that's very different.

Speaker 4 (24:23):
So again, it's corrupt, it's a bad scheme. And Acting
Attorney General Todd Blanche has managed a way to tell
the Senate about this bullshit with a straight face, acting
like it's not total nonsense. So here's Todd Blanche giving
a few answering a few questions for the members of
the Senate who are asking like, hey, like, so do

(24:45):
people who like attack cops? Get like are they eligible?
And I'm I think you can guess what his answer was.
Here's Chris van Holland from Maryland.

Speaker 8 (24:55):
Well, individuals who assaulted Capitol Hill police officers be eligible
for this one. Well, as it makes plain, just let
me know if they're eligible for the fund.

Speaker 9 (25:05):
As as as was made played yesterday, anybody in this
country is eligible to apply if they believe they were victim.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
Weaposition. Julem me ask you this.

Speaker 8 (25:15):
Are there going to be rules that say that if
you've assaulted a Capitol Hill police officer or committed a
violent crime, you will not be eligible. Why not make
that a rule?

Speaker 9 (25:25):
I expected that. Well, because I'm not one of the
commissioners setting up the rules, I expect point will more
of the five members aren't.

Speaker 4 (25:32):
So he's like, I'm not making there was like you're
appointing for the fat in charge of the whole thing.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (25:38):
Rules are kind of sticky subject around here, you know,
do we need them?

Speaker 2 (25:42):
And one thing that this is making me think about
is what's stopping all of us from applying for this fund?

Speaker 1 (25:47):
Right? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (25:48):
I mean that's again he said anybody is eligible. Anybody
is eligible.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
So I mean, could the people who the Biden administration
arrested for protesting on behalf of the people apply for
anybody was able to apply? The government took a lot
of native land? Could I could I have? Can I
get some of that? Yeah? I mean I feel like
Neil Gorsich would find a way to actually side the

(26:17):
moral consistently. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:19):
Actually I shot him out in my book, like specifically,
like Neil Gorstch would get a front receipt at any power.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
Even though you're you're glittering a lot of other rights.
You meant to be consistent on this point, Oh, yeah,
for sure.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
It's one of those things where it's like across the board, like, yeah,
probably one of the most conservative men that ever lived.
But that's something he writes poetry about, like Native people
should get rid more.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
Yeah, James Cameron.

Speaker 4 (26:44):
So then there was a follow up, you know, Chris
Van Holland rightfully asked, like, what about Like, there's a
guy who was pardoned by Trump for the insurrection who's
actually went on to molest two children.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
What weaponization to me? What about him?

Speaker 4 (26:59):
Is he eligible to get money even if he uses
that to maybe buy his the silence of his victims.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
Not a great answer here from Todd, Blanche.

Speaker 8 (27:06):
Let me go back to this slush fund, because there's
also an individual who, after being pardoned by the president
went on to molest two children, and that person actually
tried to buy the silence of these children by saying

(27:26):
that he would pay them some of the funds that
he was hoping to get your slush fund, Can you
commit to making the rules so that that person is
not eligible.

Speaker 4 (27:38):
This is such an easy one, Todd, Todd, such an
easy one, dude, Such an easy.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
Payout under this fund.

Speaker 9 (27:45):
Well, you're obviously lying in your question, because there's no
way that this person committed to that. But the slush fund,
as you call it, which is not didn't. I'm sure,
but I can't commit misir terry general.

Speaker 8 (27:58):
Don't ever do that again, he said, he said on
the expectation they hope to get some of the funds
from a payout.

Speaker 9 (28:06):
He's he's been slush fund Senator, and that didn't.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
Well, you're talking about the slush fund.

Speaker 4 (28:11):
He's talking about a general payout engineer on behalf of visurrection,
So he's referring to it as the slush fund. You're
talking about the slush fund, which is not different. Yeah,
it doesn't get it actually gets worse. You know, since
he's also the acting attorney general, he was asking him like,

(28:34):
hey man, just back on that whole thing about the
Epstein files. Just just also do we know like if
you're can you just commit that you're not going to
pardon anybody from the Epstein files?

Speaker 3 (28:46):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (28:46):
And again stellar answer. If you are here to be
an absolute hill for the pressure.

Speaker 8 (28:51):
Can I can I ask you to commit that the
Justice Department will not recommend a pardon for anyone named
in the Epstein files.

Speaker 9 (29:02):
Can you repeat that question?

Speaker 8 (29:03):
I'm sorry you commit that the Justice Department, you, the
acting Attorney General, would not recommend a pardon for people
named in the Epstein files.

Speaker 9 (29:14):
When you say people named, I have no there's tens
of people names.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
What is a file? It depends on zoom out, what is
a file?

Speaker 4 (29:26):
I think he should have stuck with his first which was,
I'm sorry, I didn't hear the question.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
I'm sorry, you're talking like you got marbles in your
I can't understand one word. Out of time, looks like
you're out of time center. Did you? Could you actually
repeat that? Run that back? Sorry? He really just said
files name just fucking English right now?

Speaker 4 (29:52):
Yeah, the financier, like the crowd behind him.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
Is like, I can't the only one.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
Yeah, it does look like his in this screencap. His
face is very much just like are you yeah? Just
like am I right?

Speaker 1 (30:08):
Yeah? This is crazy?

Speaker 4 (30:10):
And then again the Epstein files come up once again.
This time he's being asked a question from Senator Jeff Merkley, saying, hey, man,
like these files, what's what's going on? Like how what's
going on with this investigation? We have all this ship,
we know, but it feels like there's no action and
God damn. Blanche acts like he's went full Memento on

(30:33):
our asses, being like, huh, what.

Speaker 9 (30:36):
I want to go on to the Epstein investigation?

Speaker 1 (30:38):
Is it closed?

Speaker 9 (30:39):
When you say the Epstein investigation, what are your friends to.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
Sunday, Well, the.

Speaker 8 (30:45):
Last year in July that it had closed the Epstein investigation,
So I'm just using their words.

Speaker 1 (30:50):
Is it open or closed?

Speaker 9 (30:51):
I don't believe the.

Speaker 4 (30:52):
FBI said that. Well, and if your friend you're you're
head of the Department of Justice, is the Epstein investigation
opener close?

Speaker 9 (31:00):
But I guess I don't understand what Epstein investigation means.
And that's well, let me put it down for we
seen himself. Yes, he's dead. Any investigation into potential other
bad guys will always be open if we have evidence
that supports in any way, shape or form that we can.

Speaker 1 (31:15):
Make a case. But we don't know, we're not.

Speaker 2 (31:18):
Yeah, So I like that, Like reading between the lines,
He's basically saying like, that's an investigation, We're not investigating that.

Speaker 4 (31:24):
Yeah, Yeah, it's so, And it's this is what exactly
what Trump wanted, right. Pam Bondy was still like half
a lawyer and kind of was struggling with just fully
just being totally out there with it. He's found inn
app just a creature. You know, I don't even know
what the fuck you're talking about. It feels like a
Tim Robinson. I'm gonna have to read up on this investigation, dude,

(31:48):
what you're doing. But it's crazy, like this is this
is the stonewalling he's putting up right now. It's just
truly being like, oh, I don't know, like he's dead, dude.

Speaker 1 (31:58):
I don't want me to say, yeah, yeah, we actually
did do an investigation. He's dead. It turns out, yeah, suicide,
so uh yeah.

Speaker 4 (32:09):
This is like, this is you know, this is how
this this administration is going to continue to evolve, because
this is exactly how Trump is going to protect himself
and others of this class, the Epstein class, and just
put someone out there who's just so willing to just
just straight up truly act completely ignorant about.

Speaker 1 (32:28):
Everything just to waste people's time.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
I mean, I guess what I wonder is like, are
they literally just like putting these guys through improv classes
or something like that to like here's a reaction whenever
a Democrat asks any question, you know, like Yeah, to
what level of people being coached.

Speaker 4 (32:41):
I think it's just it's they are. They're being coached
by their surrounding environment and their upbringings, where there are
no boundaries. They've been, they're always able to get away
with ship. So you just build this skill and be like,
I don't know, dude, Like you know.

Speaker 1 (32:54):
What this guy's talking about.

Speaker 4 (32:55):
Yeah, I was drunk and I hit a guy in
my car. No, dude, there's not even evin Is nineteen
ninety three. There's no weady can improve this. Dude, Get
me out of here, like there's it's that kind of shit.
I just think Trump has this ability to also find
other people who are fully just invertebrates, who know how
to just slither their way in and out of shit. Yeah,
and he's like, Yeah, this guy doesn't give a fuck,

(33:16):
he has no moral scruples. He'll go up there, straight
face to a Senate panel and be like, I don't know,
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:24):
It feels like his entire like basis of picking people
is basically like, are you gonna make me look bad
on camera? And it's like it kind of feels like
that guy's just trying to avoid a SoundBite that makes
anybody look bad. But like through doing that he gets
all these weird soundbites where he's just like Epstein investigation.

Speaker 4 (33:39):
Yeah, but I think at the end of the day,
like if that blunts the momentum of any investigation, then
that's probably number one.

Speaker 1 (33:45):
It's just too frustrating to just keep asking questions of people.

Speaker 4 (33:48):
Who are like how comparatively right? Like Pam BONDI couldn't
handle getting grilled right, and she was like the Dow
Jones is up five like fifty, Like you're like, holy shit.
Like that's when it was sort of untenable for Trump.
I think he doesn't care if the guy's just being
a total asshole about it, because that's.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
Oh yeah, for sure, it's like he wants that. I mean,
I think like Christinohum is such a great example of like,
oh yeah, you you said all this crazy shit and
did all this like horrible monster stuff, but you didn't
get fired until people started being like, hey, this is embarrassing.

Speaker 1 (34:18):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, give me the guy whose last name
is a golden girl. I like him, right bench yeah,
or as a fan of her her work, well, speaking
of invertebrates that are friends of the Trump administration. Ebola
is spreading and people are recalling the time when the
Trump administration cuts to foreign aid and global health organizations happened,

(34:42):
and I think Elon Musk proudly bragged that DOJE accidentally
canceled ebola prevention. Yeah, he then said it was promptly restored.
But that turned out to be bullshit, as was reported
at the time USA, it's teams and contractors that would
be deployed to fight a bowl outbreak. We're dismantled. And

(35:03):
that was something that he was just like, well, uh,
if you see again, that's like novel teacher.

Speaker 4 (35:09):
He grew up just being able to say no, I
put it back, I put it back, I didn't take
it quick, and then you just fuck off and if
you continue to recavoc.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
On the world.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
Well, what's like wow to me about that is like
there are so many people who like the amount of
people that worked in the APOLO response team was probably
I don't a blind guest making it up, like at
least several hundred people or something like that, right, And
it's like those people were kind of in that like
you know, uh, internet startup bubble of like.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
Did our company collapse? Should I like apply for a
new job or something like that.

Speaker 2 (35:38):
And it's just like, it's not only the it's to
me not only the like of the ability to detect
this like horrible disease thing. It's also the like, oh,
now you got all these people that have worked there
for decades that are just like should I go back
to college?

Speaker 1 (35:51):
R's happening? Yeah? Yeah, Well I was talking about that
on yesterday's Trending because we were talking about a nonprofit
that like looks children's entertainment to make sure that they
aren't being like advertised to just like yeah yeah and
like that that children's content and like that. It was
a story about a educational game that is like for

(36:15):
every math question, the children are exposed to like four ads.
I was just like, man, it's wild. How any sort
of like moral work for something that's like not making
money is just people are just like what why the
fuck would you do that? Are you fucking dumb? Yeah?
How are you gonna get your paper up? How you

(36:37):
get to Lambeau from there? Yeah? For sure?

Speaker 2 (36:39):
Well, I mean there's there's stuff like I mean you
could look at like the like the like the defunding
of PBS is a really great example of like I
mean then speaking to somebody who's like worked on a
couple of PBS shows, Like you know, these are people
that like don't make great money, but they like do
the work because they're so passionate about it. And then
you know, they do this work because like, especially in
rural areas, there are a lot of kids that just

(37:00):
don't have access to like you know, like great schooling
and stuff like that. So have something like Sesame Street
that's just teaching kids how to read. Yeah, like that
feels like that should just be like a net good
that does that costs the amount of like one missile,
you know or whatever. Or it's like I'm sure that
like this costs a quarter of what that like insurrection
slush fund is for their entire budget for the year. Sure,

(37:21):
and it like legitimately helps people. And it's like we're
losing that and instead it's being replaced by like you know,
Chatgypt or whatever.

Speaker 1 (37:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (37:27):
And I think also because all of these people are
so craven and like these single celled organisms that only
think about themselves, they don't understand that so much of
the infrastructure of the world is being held up by
people who like how are doing the work like this,
and so to them, they're like prevention of the bowl
up because it's just been invisible or actively like advertised

(37:50):
as like look at this asshole.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
Yeah exactly. Was the was a bullet at the insurrection?
It was okay, it was. So is it eligible for
a payout slush funding? Yes, anything is eligible for a
pay Yes, everything is.

Speaker 4 (38:04):
Here's this, here's that clip of Elon bragging about the
ebola prevention canceled.

Speaker 3 (38:09):
For example, with usc I D one of the things
we absolutely canceled very briefly was prevention. I think we
want the prevention. So we were still with the prevention,
and then was interruption. But we do need to move
quickly if we're if we're to achieve a.

Speaker 1 (38:29):
Trillion dollars Yeah, okay, anyway, that's to achieve a trillion
dollars cuts, that's to me. Nonprofits working in the DRC
say that quote basic medical equipment like masks and hand sanitizers,
plus components necessary for testing are in short supply due
to funding cuts. It turns out they did move aggressively
on getting those funding cuts, all right, and now.

Speaker 4 (38:51):
There's like something like six Americans that have been exposed
a tea bowler there too, So.

Speaker 1 (38:55):
Yeah, but that won't matter. That one they like, what
were they doing in the condo should be fine.

Speaker 2 (39:01):
I mean six plus the amount of people in that dream,
that's right. I have a ball.

Speaker 1 (39:04):
Yeah, I.

Speaker 4 (39:07):
Wouldn't go to the Congo, not without not without Amy
with her sign language glove to the other apes now
without her her mining laser exactly. That could just sheer
a limb straight off one of those Faro lapes that
they had always movie coming out of they had the
I was telling my fourth grade park was.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
Good way to hear Amy want rain drop? That's a martini.
I just love that.

Speaker 2 (39:35):
Like it's so insane that that movie ends with a
fucking laser rifle. Yeah yeah, and.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
Like Eric, dude, They're like, fuck, I think it's it's
a laser. So we got everybody. We saw a bunch
of apes in a half God, thank god they did,
you know? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (39:51):
Yeah, Tim Curry great in that movie. Yeah, Romania and
then uh del Lindell say stop the team.

Speaker 1 (40:00):
I say, send me cake. It's a great line.

Speaker 4 (40:04):
Any other lines, that's what That's one of the names
of Ernie Hudson's crew.

Speaker 1 (40:09):
Why. I think there's one guy called that he always calls.
He like and the guy shows up. Yeah, I got
other ones.

Speaker 10 (40:16):
Yeah, you could keep going. Yeah, should we take a
quick break, We'll be right back. Yeah, yeah, and we're back.

Speaker 1 (40:34):
Yeah. And I guess we should just mentioned that the
president yesterday just specifically said, uh that the rising gas
prices is peanuts. So he's he's on message. He does
not He explicitly does not give a fuck.

Speaker 4 (40:48):
About When do you think he's gonna start calling people
like broke boys? Like that sounds like a bunch of
broke duck to me and shipped to me bro.

Speaker 1 (40:58):
I mean, if he'd already been saying that, I would
not be surprised. Do you think he's ever actually pumped
cast at a gas pump? Yeah, probably like twice. I
feel like I've never seen him drive, Like remember when
he got behind the wheel of that big truck. Yeah,
he was just like like it was like a five
year old getting behind a car, like you didn't know. Yeah,

(41:18):
and then he got in a Tesla, in the Tesla
on like everything's computer.

Speaker 2 (41:22):
Yeah yeah, no, I was thinking about that too, like
whenever he whenever. There are photos of him in the
driver's seat of a car he looks so confused. Yeah,
so it's like, yeah, not only has he probably never
pumped his own gas, he's also probably never driven a car.

Speaker 4 (41:34):
I feel like he probably did it once for like
the thrill of being a poor person.

Speaker 1 (41:38):
Sure, you know, I mean I know a lot of
people who grew up in New York never never drove,
you know. Oh, I guess that. Yeah, I never thought
about that.

Speaker 4 (41:45):
I'm only yeah, I'm only thinking the most car centric
city ever that I've grown up in LA, which is like, yeah,
it was like, right.

Speaker 1 (41:51):
Of course he drives. He drove to work every Did
you ever smoke a blunt at the pump? All right,
let's laugh at robots, shall we? Our only recourse at
this point is to point and laugh. There's another video
of a robot embarrassing itself that has gone viral, this
time during an event at the Future Era Robot Store

(42:14):
and Chwan shen Zen Sheen shen Zen China close. The
robot is dancing around to Michael Jackson's Billy Jean. So
they were really setting expectations, expectations like, Okay, this is
gonna be one of the best dance routines of all time. Yeah, yeah,

(42:38):
is there a more iconic moment that drum beat. I
remember a club and I hear that beat. I get
off the floor.

Speaker 4 (42:50):
Who's got the fucking gall to get down to Billy
Jean right now?

Speaker 1 (42:54):
Like they're five years old. I get off the floor
and I stare down you. Okay, let's see, ahole, you're
gonna do the smooth criminal ship ship. He just did
the smooth criminal lean o.

Speaker 4 (43:08):
God, he just pulled his hair out of a bun
and it's now like the sort of sweaty Michael Jackson
long hair for bad video. Uh yeah, so here's a
here's a fucking road. Do this this robot. I gotta
say it's killing it. At the beginning the gliding, I
was like that boy glided. Here we go, all right.

(43:29):
Now it hits a step recover, recover, Okay, got it?

Speaker 2 (43:36):
Okay, I forgot about the stumbach Oh.

Speaker 4 (43:41):
Not kidding up the stair oh ship. And now it's
just fully lead up, which is what I would do.
At that point, I think, Oh, to act like you're
meant to do this. No, I act like I'm dead.

Speaker 1 (43:53):
And now there's there's been a medical emergency. The only
way I'm getting out of here is on a stretcher.

Speaker 2 (44:00):
Yeah, just look, that's right into my high school prom.
I tried dancing. Didn't go well, so I just played
dead for thirty minutes.

Speaker 1 (44:07):
I waited for the ambulances to come and I was
still looking. Had to own it. Oh ship, Yeah, I
love that.

Speaker 4 (44:13):
That guy just took off with the with the with
the fucking robot like it was showtime at the Apollo
and they're like, yeah, there were people who aren't watching.
It's it's a robot that is doing a decent job.
Hits a stare and then like is the perfect physical.

Speaker 1 (44:31):
Embodiment of like any time you've ever like something like yeah,
yeah I caught yourself.

Speaker 4 (44:36):
Seen a cat do something like I've never seen a
human move their limbs as quickly as that.

Speaker 1 (44:42):
Yeah, yeah, I think.

Speaker 4 (44:44):
Do you think they fucked up with the starting point
like they started with the robot too? You think that
this robot knows where a fucking stairs are and when
just jackass.

Speaker 1 (44:54):
It was very confident because that the last move it
was approaching the steps like a about to it had to.
It feels like it was trying to climb those steps. Yeah,
oh man. The first one, it was just like it
caught an errant step. The second one was like and
now to confidently walk up, dude.

Speaker 2 (45:14):
Yeah, such a guilty such a guilty pleasure me.

Speaker 1 (45:17):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (45:18):
Nowadays is like I'll just google like robot fails. Just
like watch videos of like a robot trying to climb
stairs and then falling off the stairs and smashing its
head open. And it's like it's so good because like
we saw in this video, you know, the guy comes
out and like very sadly drags the lifeless robot away.
But it's like that's how all of those videos end.
Is that or somebody pulls up a tarp or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

(45:39):
it's just like don't look.

Speaker 4 (45:40):
At the broken room that happened with that like rush
in one where they just put a sheet like like
it was a murder. Oh yeah, when it was the
final countdown, was it.

Speaker 1 (45:49):
Was Rocky four?

Speaker 4 (45:50):
Yeah yeah yeah, And they put the tarp up in
a way such a way that it wasn't covering anything up.

Speaker 1 (45:57):
Yeah yeah.

Speaker 4 (45:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (45:58):
It always feels like they're drag a dead body. Yeah yeah,
But I don't know why it feels so good, because yes,
I really it feels too good, like it I think
the same thing that makes me love the commencement speeches.
Getting booed is also like making me love this where
it's just like I think I've just been fucked up

(46:19):
by everyone in tech being evil and fucking up our
world for the past decade, and now I'm just like
please fucking just right into my veins anytime they're fucking up,
or like you know, encountering how wildly unpopular there you
like seeing the robots fail for that reason?

Speaker 4 (46:39):
Oh yeah, yeah, I'm like a child who's like, man,
our robots can't do that, can't die.

Speaker 8 (46:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (46:48):
Yeah, And I feel like that's like when like my
kid will realize, like we live in a failed Like
that's when he'll realize we're in a failed state. He's like,
the robots from the other countries are way better than
the shit we got.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
Yeah, all ours can do is have uns attached to them.

Speaker 4 (47:01):
Yea, then explode right because they don't got honey in
their hips unlimited for those type of robots.

Speaker 1 (47:08):
Yeah, the killer robots, which is good and seems like
a good way to run a society.

Speaker 2 (47:12):
Well, what you were saying earlier about like watching people
getting Buddha convincement speeches like it is so interesting in
the film world, Like I have a like a short
film that's been going through festivals and every once in
a while, not very often, but it's like an AI
generated animated sort film will like kind of screen in
the same block as mine, and it's like usually when
that happens, if the filmmaker's there and they're doing like
a Q and A afterwards, the audience will like boo

(47:33):
them to the point that they can't talk, and the
look on their face is always just like wait, I'm the.

Speaker 1 (47:39):
Villain right right, Like they're in a bubble. Everybody. Have
you ever like there there is this quote or I
think it was like an op ed article where someone
was like I want to I went to Manhattan and
like nobody was coding, Like they were out on dates,
like talking to each other instead of coding AI.

Speaker 4 (47:57):
Like, I feel like the bubble in Symfrancis goes. It's
just like not all AI NonStop. Everyone's just like this
is our future now, this is the only way to.

Speaker 1 (48:06):
Move that makes sense.

Speaker 4 (48:07):
Remember that one clip of the AI CEO freestyle rapping
like his employees that ship was cool.

Speaker 1 (48:14):
Yeah, I mean probably just because their jobs depending on it.

Speaker 4 (48:17):
But the fact that the guy had the nerve to
be like, you know what, I'm gonna spit a fucking
hot sixteen about AI, Right, it was really for me.

Speaker 1 (48:24):
By AI, and so it yeah sucks.

Speaker 2 (48:26):
Shit, yeah, unbuilding, it's wild if you're in if you're
in the Bay Area, they'll have straight up things where
it's just like oh, you'll you'll pass a strip club
and it'll say like free lap dances if you're an
AI exec. So like it really does feel like no, yeah, yeah, yeah, legit.
I don't know, it's like I think it's just that's
the new thing. It Like I think that the Bay Area,
like I like I was it there. Everyone still left

(48:47):
the fucking planet. Yeah, it's just sort of like it's
like I'm sure it was NFTs. Like if you work
for an NFT company, you get a free Starbucks latte
or whatever, you know, and it's just like that's the
new version of that. But it is it does feel
like it's another world of like, oh yeah, this is
a world where no, he's been like pussed out for
firing their workers and replacing them with AI.

Speaker 8 (49:04):
You know.

Speaker 1 (49:04):
Yeah, yeah, it really just like I feel like we're
moving towards the world of Demolition Man. Miles, You've been
saying this for a long time. The Demolition Man is
wait till the franchise worst start. Yeah yeah, yeah, Taco
bell will be the only food that we get to
eat a I'll die. Classical music will be jingles. We'll
be like cut scurrying up out of sewers to like

(49:26):
you know, and it's just like Dennis Leary.

Speaker 2 (49:28):
Yeah, okay. So when the franchise were to start, which
which brand would y'all die for?

Speaker 1 (49:33):
Brands? Young Brands? Is Mountain Dew affiliated with Young Brands?

Speaker 2 (49:40):
I feel like I would. I Look, I know they're
not gonna win, but I'm gonna go down with Little Caesars.
Litless is cheap delicious. It's like the every man Pizza.
I took a bullet the Rosa.

Speaker 1 (49:48):
Parks in her home. Yeah yeah, and kept it secret
because he was such a good dude. Yeah. Like, yeah,
So I dig a bullet for Little.

Speaker 4 (49:54):
And that's good and you made a good ethical choice. Yeah,
I will die with my corporate overload.

Speaker 1 (50:00):
Sorry. I like Kentucky Fryer.

Speaker 2 (50:04):
You say that as you're throwing a rock at a
baby curry.

Speaker 1 (50:09):
I'm a papa John's Man myself, I'm a coke addict.
Why does the Coca Cola collar fans then what? I'm
a coke addict? All right, let's talk about there's a
new music festival comedy that I don't know how it happened.

(50:29):
It really, it seemed like I just want to I'm
gonna describe it to you, and then I just want
to game out how the conversation happened. So I've already
got movies based on toys, theme park rides, sneakers. They've
all been fucking awesome. Hollywood has decided to make a
movie called Rolling Loud. The movie Rolling Loud the music

(50:52):
face all the time when I worked at the radio station. Yeah,
like yeah, I could see a movie edit Coachella like that,
like where there's like some background thing, but like Rolling Loud,
I think also there's a heist of some kind. Yeah, yeah,
exactly Coachella heist, if there's anything to heist in. And
Rolling Loud used to have like huge acts.

Speaker 4 (51:15):
Now it feels like like they, like any huge festival,
it just becomes super corporate and they have a bunch
of stages and like sometimes I guess the other thing too,
is like as hip hop ages, I'm aging poorly along
with hip hop where like I look at.

Speaker 1 (51:30):
The lineup, I'm like, who the fuck are these kids? Right? Yeah,
I guess I'm just like thinking as a movie exact
like you would think that they would go with the
one that is like the most popular. But yeah, Rolling
Loud is like obviously like has had some great moments,
very cool festival. They might also pat them, you know,
oh just wait, wait, just you. It starts Ohm Wilson

(51:53):
as a dad who panics about losing his son Wow
in the sea of sixty thousand, sweaty teens and millennium
ols outside Hard Rock Stadium, and it was inspired by
the director's real life experience at Rolling Loud with his teenager,
which is kind of like saying that Battleship was inspired
by the time the director played Battleship. But it's.

Speaker 4 (52:16):
It is exactly what you would think a big commercial
for the festival. It is being produced by Live Nations
Movie Division.

Speaker 1 (52:23):
I love it. Oh, I didn't realize. Did you know?
Live Nation produced Bradley Cooper's A Star Is Born And
that's how they got like all.

Speaker 4 (52:30):
Those all that concert I mean, that makes sense that
all these companies are just getting together and be like,
O yah, yeah, we who can you bring?

Speaker 1 (52:36):
What can you do? Yeah, let's do that. Let's make
a ton of money. I mean, Chick fil A, their
stream service is still killing it. In my book, I
forgot it. But okay, So the weirdest decision that's been made,
like the decision to make the movie. It's like, okay,
I can kind of see that, is that they've it's

(52:57):
starring Travis Scott as himself.

Speaker 4 (53:00):
Okay, Travis Scott live concert comedy.

Speaker 1 (53:05):
That's a I see that logic track?

Speaker 4 (53:07):
Yeah, yeah, why what was the last thing that I
remember about the Travis Scott.

Speaker 1 (53:11):
The site of one of the deadliest concert disasters in
US history? Yeah? Have you seen that documentary?

Speaker 4 (53:18):
No?

Speaker 1 (53:18):
Oh, that's what people are like, did they do this?
Because the documentary came out and they had to just
be like.

Speaker 2 (53:26):
They were like that documentary was so funny.

Speaker 1 (53:30):
They're like, dude, have you seen this ship? We should
make this a movie, dude, Yeah, but a comedy. I'm real.

Speaker 2 (53:36):
I gotta say, uh, I love I love Travis Scott
because he ruined about a year of WWE storylines. Really yeah,
if y'all didn't follow this A big story in w
W last year is that John Cena was on his
kind of retirement run. He retired in December, and he
turned heel at WrestleMania last year, which is the first

(53:57):
time in like twenty five years that he'd ever been
a bad guy, and the fans have been clamoring for.

Speaker 1 (54:01):
Did he grow shitty beer?

Speaker 2 (54:03):
No, no, no, no, no, that would be like he
shaved a horseshoe in his area. But now basically what
happened was, like the way they turned him heel is
they had the Rock kind of like give him a wink,
and they had Travis Scott come out and like punch
Cody Roads in the dick or whatever it made you. Yeah,
And it was supposed to set up for like some
kind of like John Cena, Travis Scott and like Logan

(54:24):
Paul match or something like them as a team against
somebody else, but Travis Scott just like did it once,
did it once and then was like nah, I don't
like falling in the ring and.

Speaker 1 (54:32):
Just stopped showing up.

Speaker 2 (54:34):
So they had to like retcon and rewrite like like
John Cena's final retirement run because Travis Scott was like, yeah,
I don't want to do this anymore.

Speaker 4 (54:42):
Yeah, I know you like it if I get to
like win, Yeah, just be awesome. The one where I
have like superpowers. It's just something about like being crushed
against another human body.

Speaker 1 (54:53):
Christ.

Speaker 2 (54:53):
It's also funny because he didn't work out at all
and Travis Scott, I assume weighs like one hundred and
fifty pounds or something.

Speaker 1 (54:58):
Yes, with fifty pounds of soaking wet.

Speaker 2 (55:01):
Camps for sure, but like because he didn't like put
on any way, like all the big like you know,
six ft five wrestlers had to like sell for him,
like they had to get punch by him to pretend
like it hurt.

Speaker 1 (55:10):
Yeah, and he was like, nah, I don't like this. Yeah,
this isn't cool. Yeah. Live Nation was like the producer
of the show where the disaster happened. They Live Nation
settled ten wrongful death lossuits.

Speaker 4 (55:24):
Do you remember like right after I remember right after
Travis Scott like Live Nation like we've teamed up with
Better Help right to like give you guys therapy and
that moraumatic event.

Speaker 7 (55:35):
Yeah, this is the best you can fucking do. Yeah,
when does it come out in the next year? Yeah,
it's just been announced but soon.

Speaker 1 (55:47):
Dude La Flame and fucking Owen Wilson. It's real. Yeah,
some people think that they did this for SEO to
like cover up anytime.

Speaker 4 (55:57):
Travis Scott Live Nation is Travis Scott concert. Dude, hilarious
comedy with Owen Wilson.

Speaker 1 (56:04):
It's like the Disney Frozen theory that Disney made Frozen
because they wanted to stop people stop the theory that
Disney's Walt Disney's head is frozen, right right, right, Yeah,
Walt Disney is frozen.

Speaker 4 (56:16):
Yeah yeah, but yeah, it's coming just a year after
Netflix released a documentary about the tragedy.

Speaker 1 (56:23):
So real cool. How Dystopi in our society is? Isn't
it fun?

oh my god.

Speaker 4 (58:26):
I don't know where to start a work and media.
I like, yeah, there's one, there's so many. There's one
that I was talking about, the one that made me
cry cry when Arson Wenger starts off talking about how
we've done it. I could play that one.

Speaker 1 (58:40):
I think.

Speaker 4 (58:40):
One that is really worth that that I love hearing
is the group like the sort of mass Catharsis of
North London when the final whistle blows and we have
been crowned champions. This was posted on Instagram by Ultra's
Clips and this was just says the sound of twenty
two years of waiting coming to an absolute end, and
I just just want people to know, Okay, this is

(59:01):
what it's all fucking about.

Speaker 1 (59:03):
This is what it's about. So here, let me just
play this audio for you. This guy is my gay.

Speaker 4 (59:08):
So people are waiting because they're like just asking the
referee like blow.

Speaker 1 (59:11):
The whistle and there we go. I love it, just
like a blitz siren that's growing off. Get it, kiss it.

Speaker 4 (59:29):
I think he said maybe said get it, maybe get in.
I don't know whatever it was. Oh, just if you
guys see some fum meum send him my way. Oh
and also, if you're looking for a discord, invite hit
me up again. I have the wherewithal and mental capacity
to start inviting people to the discord server again, so
you know where to find me.

Speaker 1 (59:48):
I will hear your prayers. Miles was superstitioning his team
to victory, so you have to understand yet a lot.
There's actually I'm not joking, there's a Champagne super nova. AKA.

Speaker 4 (59:58):
I was gonna do, but I didn't want to sing
an Oasis song because Oasis, the like the Gallagher brothers,
are fans of Man City.

Speaker 1 (01:00:05):
We're chasing us in second place.

Speaker 4 (01:00:08):
I didn't want to give any energy and my my
apologies to the person wrote that Who's great.

Speaker 1 (01:00:12):
I will sing it now though that the that the
title is done and dusted. What if I had sung it,
you would have been like.

Speaker 4 (01:00:17):
No, it's fun because it's not you giving your energy
to a college fair.

Speaker 1 (01:00:22):
You know what I mean. I'm putting that out there.
I had to keep my vibrations. I'm just glad I
did it because I could have swung the whole league. Wait.

Speaker 2 (01:00:29):
I just realized I didn't. I didn't shout out my
work and media. Should I wait, should I do that now?

Speaker 1 (01:00:32):
Or okay? Yeah, yeah, so yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:00:34):
I I was going to try to find it super
funny and a webcomic or something like that to share
with y'all, but instead I figured, you know, the primaries
are coming up, elections are coming up soon. I'm gonna
shout out a bunch of Native candidates who are running
for different positions. I vote for do it. Okay, So
if you live in New Mexico, vote Deb Holland for governor.
She's the former Secretary of the Interior and she's cool
as shit. I have a chapter of my book about
how dope she is, so check that out. If you

(01:00:56):
live in Minnesota, Peggy Flanagan's run for Senate. She's the
currently ten governor Minnesota. She's Native and she's dope as hell. Arizona.
If you live in the second congressional district, vote Jonathan Nez.
He's the former president of the Navajo Nation. He's cool
as ship. And then if you're in Michigan for the
fourth Confessional district, Sean McCann is a great local politician
and he's native. So let's get some fucking native candidates

(01:01:16):
about let's let's go.

Speaker 1 (01:01:18):
Let's go, Yeah, let's go.

Speaker 2 (01:01:22):
And do they lift any of these candidates? I think
Peggy Flanagan lifts. I think Peggy Flanagan and Dev Holland
lift the other candidates. You know, Holland seems like she
got a good head on he shoulder.

Speaker 3 (01:01:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:01:31):
About her health, yeah yeah, and what you don't want
you want your head to actually connect to your shoulders politician.

Speaker 4 (01:01:38):
Which is a little bit crazy because she also has
the same last name spelling of Erling Holland, who is
the Norwegian striker who is the main City's mean, you
didn't even have to say that tought him everything he knows.
I didn't want to bring that up because her name
was exact same. My working media is the NBA playoffs
have been very good, Yeah, coming back from nothing. And

(01:02:01):
also Viktor Wmayama just ascending. There's a great picture of
him looking off into.

Speaker 1 (01:02:08):
The crouch that Josh r R Jokeingan tweeted and said,
the Hobbits cheering for Gandalf after he sets half another
round of fireworks because he's he is taller than all
of his nbah who are all six six and above.
You show it? Can you show me this picture? Uh?
That rocks? I love that. Yeah, he had a moment

(01:02:32):
