Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to season one ninety three,
Episode three of de Days I Got the production of
I Heart Radio. This is a podcast where we take
a deep dive into America's share consciousness. Uh. It is Wednesday,
July fourteen, twenty one. My name is Jack O'Brien. A
kay to get you, get you, get you Gay, to

(00:23):
get you, get you, Get you Guy Hi to get you,

I'm thrilled to be joined as always by my co host,
Mr Miles Grab allowed me to reintroduce myself. I'm second

(00:47):
dose the COVID vaccine. Gotta get your second dose of
the vaccine, And even back then, I was a vaccine
against c o V I d ho Okay. I just
thought of that because I was reading how a lot
of people are just getting one dose of the vaccine.
You gotta get the second dose too, so you need

(01:09):
to follow through with it so you can get to
full efficacy. Please, And that at the same time that
you realize vaccine rhymes with vaccine scene exactly three times
in a row, I'm like, I'm like sucking two thousand five,
Beanie Seagull where I'll just say what, I'll just get
one word over and over and over again. Anyway, shout

(01:30):
out to me, shout out to you, generating a terrible rhymes.
What was yours up to the town of Uh? That
the Louis theme song? Okay? Yeah? Was that not clear?
I'm sorry, No, I just had to take that again.
I hadn't heard that one in a while. I guess

(01:52):
that's a real song called Brother Louis band names Stories
and I did not realize that. I did not know that,
did not know that wild stuff. We're thrilled to be
joined in our third seat by one of I think
our most eagerly anticipated first timers. Uh. He co hosts

(02:16):
the podcast The Worst Idea of All Time with Guy Montgomery.
He's a very funny stand up comedian, TV writer, producer host.
Welcome to the show, the hilarious and talented Tim Baths Brothers.
I'm loving this morning zoo Energy six fifty one a

(02:38):
m my time. Yeah, here he comes with the key.
We report. Yeah, everything's upside down here topsy turvy and
we're we're living life because we have not been. We
got the Batman we have not been out ravaged in
the in the exact same fashion as the rest of
the world, for we are a tiny island nation. Yeah,

(03:00):
are you a big a test cricket fans as well? No, dude,
I'm not a big sports guy. Okay, because last time
guy was could not extolling the virtues of text test
cricket um and and gave us all in education. So
see a fucking stupid you. It's so stupid. It's like,
have you guys even seen cricket. Yeah, it's the word

(03:21):
like brief clips. It's like everyone's dressed up like they're
in the KKK. You're head to toe all in whites.
I mean I mentioned last time, I was like, I
don't have enough white clothes to be interested in this game.
And then it takes like five days to play a game,
and often there's like drawers and ship I don't even
understand it. I don't know it. Just of your laundry

(03:44):
detergent commercials take place like cricketing. I feel like cricket
matches would be the setting of all laundry detergent commercials.
I actually, now that you've said it, it makes perfect
sense to me that laundry detergents invented cricket and it's
just hell yeah man, Uh, we've got to the bottom

(04:05):
line it already. Yeah, exactly. See, this is why I'm
I'm glad we guy was like you used to have
Tim on because you're coming with the real ship, not
just being like I love touch Crockett. No, no, no
spiracies behind it. Yes, you've seen the matrix. I love it. Tim.
What time is it where you are? It's about five
minutes to see when I am. Haven't had a lot
of sleep either. Yeah. I just always liked to remind

(04:28):
listeners of the of the sacrifice you are putting in. Yeah,
and also the vastness of the world and how tiny
we all are and none of this matter is all right, uh, Tim.
We're going to get to know you a little bit
better in a moment. First, we're gonna tell our listeners
a couple of the things we're talking about. We're talking
about the wild stuff happening down in Texas. The Texas

(04:50):
voter suppression Bill has forced the Democrats to flee that state.
There governor has threatened to have them arrested. Very real
Texas ship happening in Texas politics right now, we're gonna
talk about the big Lie. We're gonna talk about Batman specifically.
News Max is fantasizing about Trump being Batman, which we

(05:13):
think is a pretty apt comparison because we're we're not
team Batman here on this podcast. Uh, we're gonna talk
about well, we'll talk about inflation maybe, I think probably
the Frasier reboot. Definitely all that, plenty more, but first
tim the real Batman. Just trying to keep that Morning

(05:36):
zoo vibal. If appreciate, what is something from your search
history that's revealing about who you are? The most recent
thing I googled was Gwyneth Poutrow Flight Attendant movie Yes,
which I found out was a movie called A View
from the Top. View from the Top. I was watching, UM.
Do you guys know Richard Coote IoT always yeah, there's

(05:59):
too many yeah vowels all on a row and like
a why English comedian, Yeah you got it, crowd and gadgetman,
et cetera. He's like one of the funniest dudes alive.
He um had an interview with Russell Brand and I
was I was watching there and Richard got absist with
that movie with a View from the top because of
how like interestingly bad it was. You know, some revised

(06:21):
a bad way. They're just bad and there's kind of
nothing to let you into. But it was like this
is so interestingly bad, and he was just getting into
the weeds of why that it was so poorly cast
for Gwyneth's Paltrow to be this kind of a lower
class person aspiring to be a flight attendant, and it's
just so uniquely unbelievable that there will be a motivation

(06:42):
for this woman and how it almost it was. It
was like like class betrayal, Like it was just so condescending.
The whole the whole tone of the movie was like
what the fuck is this? These people aren't real. Yeah,
oh that's funny. Gwyneth Paltrow's conception of like Blue Color.

(07:03):
I mean I I I when I used to work
on one of my past jobs. I did a shoot
with her and like I remember down to Earth. Yeah,
but her like her handlers, Like she's really chill because
like we had a really tight schedule and like yeah,
when we get this done, this and like she's really fine.
She's like really low key. She's like really really laid back.
And I remember, like I guess the way. At first

(07:26):
she seemed like very chill and that she was tired
and didn't speak to anyone. But then suddenly she's like,
I have to have lunch, and like I was like, oh,
we we have to shoot two more things. She's like,
I have to eat right now, like okay, and then
she ate and like they brought up like all these
glass tupperware containers of food. She's like, I hate plastic
and then ate it and then left like wrapped her
like quick bite, went back to work and then like

(07:48):
left the shoot and I was like, oh her glass
st after like she's really chill, it's okay, And I'm like,
so she leaves expensive glass tupperware this in a field
just okay? I mean as the plaistic thing, it's probably
not the the waste, right, It's it's the impact on

(08:09):
her personally. She strikes me as the kind of person
who would be obsessed with plaistic How would fix her directly? Yeah?
Oh absolutely. I think it's more like do you know
about the leachinglass? And I'm like, ry, well, you just
left a ton of glass. Heretic. Can I Alaso say
that the sentence her handlers said she was really chill
is a really funny sen Yeah, I mean that's how

(08:32):
we That's like l a speak for the advanced team
that shows up before a talent of like the publicist,
manager or whoever. And yeah, because like those are the
ones who are usually the intermediary between you and town
of nothing screams totally like chilled out, like heaving. A
team has to communicate to the great unwashed, right exactly,

(08:53):
versus like Zach Galafannakis, who will pull up in his
exact same super U and just be like, hey, what
are we doing? And I'll be he will work from
dusk until dawn, and he will ate lunch when lunch
is scheduled, and he probably yeah, of a rampa. One
of my favorite moments in internet history also involved Gwyneth

(09:14):
Paltrow taking the Gwyneth Paltrow approach to blue collar life.
She I think grahamed a picture of some groceries she bought.
She was like, you know, people who live on food
stamps have to just live off twenty nine dollars worth
of food in a week. Look what twenty nine dollars
buys you. And she had like like seven lines and

(09:39):
it was like she had like some staples like brown
rice and black beans, but seven lines. It's such a
she like her thing was that she needed to make
fresh guacamo. Like she's like, I mean, once you buy
two things a that's most of your money right there?

(10:03):
People living on just six limes a week, six limes
of a week and not even a half a bottle
of black truffle oil. Have you seen by the way
Submarine Richard Iotes the movie he directed, No, I've not.
Is it awesome? It's very good, that's the Yeah. It's

(10:25):
like a comedy sort of Wes Anderson ish young person
movie Indie two. I highly recommend Okay used to be
on Netflix. I don't think it is anymore, But what's
on there anymore? Next week when Sexy Beasts? I have

(10:45):
to review that for an outlet here? Is that like
airing an American? Now? Is that already out? Is? When
it airs on Netflix out here? Damn it's a shame.
I haven't watched it yet for the review because I
could like break my India and give you guys, and
because I've got it sitting on my UM queue at
the moment. It looks crazy, Yeah, it looks yeah. I

(11:07):
don't even know I'm part of me. Is just like
do we get to see them smash with the prosthetics on? Like?
Is that? And are the prosthetics like do they extend
down to the we talked about like a whale door?
You know what I mean? Exactly the vertical eyelids? Yeah,
I want to say some freaky junk on screen and

(11:28):
full kay come on man exactly or it's all for
not Yeah, for listeners who aren't familiar, the worst idea
of all time is a podcast in which you guys
watch things that aren't easy to watch, that it's not
not the greatest cultural offerings of all time, and you
watch them over and over again. Has that turned into

(11:50):
like people just want you to watch the worst ship
of all time? Like all the time? We like, um,
you know, I think not enough people say this, but
we're like Jesus. In some ways, we were taking society's
cultural sins so that people don't have to experience it themselves.
You know, we're like taking that weight off them. But
I'll say it. We are basically podcasting Jesus and your

(12:17):
Yeah you've offered us. Yeah there. Apparently during the Black
Death there were like one of the big attractions that
went around was like a traveling circus of people who
just whipped to themselves and like sold out shows to watch.
These people just whip themselves and basically take people's like

(12:40):
very straightforward version of its Catholicism. Man. Yeah, like my
my brushes with a Catholic upbringing, which thankfully didn't sort
of last too long when I was a kid, but
that they just screams Catholicism to me. Yeah, you were
born in your god feel like ship. You asked whole
take it, take the and that like like the biggest

(13:02):
act in town is a group of goons just engaging
in self flagellation. They're just like, can I make a
book recommendation? Mm hm yeah, the whole concept of like
debt and religion. This book, No Ship took me two
years to read because I'm a very slow reader, but
I stayed with it. It's called Debt the first five

(13:23):
thousand Years. I can't remember the guy's name, but he
died a couple of years ago. But I found out
after I read the book that apparently it's like this
hard core anarchist communist Yeah, yeah, yeah, they do nice
and it's about like the idea of debt from like
a spiritual perspective. Yeah, it goes through the whole like

(13:43):
origins of the concept and how it relates to human
interaction and spirituality and how religion kind of built this
teampole on top of the concept of it. It's really interesting,
very cool, al right, I got two years. Yeah, man,
I was literally thinking this morning trying to figure out
like what our modern version of those people whipping themselves

(14:05):
are and then you came on and volunteered yourself as
as that. So podcasters, I guess we have our answers there.
It is. What is I feel like we're kind of
like that Miles. We we go through the news so
other people don't have that is true. Yeah, people can
just get our distillation through it and yeah that's it.

(14:26):
And then you could our new podcast is listen to
my therapy sessions and then we just age like president.
You know, I'm aging at a for yourself, man, four
x four x rates. But it's good. It's fine. Yeah, Jack,
you look like ship but moms, you're looking good as
how man? Yeah, baby, you know what I mean that

(14:47):
on the islands just chilling just and that boatox baby,
you know what I mean, I have changed my expression
for about three weeks. You know, need to when you
look that good? Nope, don't need to. You just seemed
real casual about everything or shocked. Tim, What is something
you think is overrated? A good night's sleep? You don't

(15:10):
need it, man, I'm living proof. I'm right here. Do
you know what happened? I so last night I was
up to like midnight and I had to get up
at six am to do this anyway. But at four
o'clock in the morning, We've just moved into a new
rental house, my wife and I, and there's there's very
cheap smoke alarms because legally you have to put smoke
arms in now, and so they got the cheapest ones

(15:31):
and they keep just randomly going off. But they've got
a built in fucking battery. You cannot take the battery out.
So yeah, so four in the morning, this thing keep
going off, and I'd hit the button and then it
will keep going, keep going, And I was like Jesus Christ,
and then I was going to hit it with a hammer.
But then I remembered in the back of my head
somewhere that smoke a arms have radioactive material in them

(15:54):
because I remember, like, I'm pretty sure some dude in
America made like a kid, like some six een year
old made a reactor out of smoke alarms or microwaves
maybe anyway. I was like, I probably shouldn't smash it
with a hammer, so I just dropped it into a
glass of water. But then and I thought it died.

(16:14):
I thought it killed it because it was just like
short circuit the thing and it stopped going off. I
was like, sweet, problem solved. But then I got up
to record in the goddamn flashing lights still flashing. So
that thing has been alive, totally submerged in water for
two hours, just waiting waiting for you to I want
to hear what it sounds like the underwater. The ionization chamber.

(16:36):
Smoke detectors contain a small amount of a marathium two
for one, a radioactive material. That's why I didn't want Yeah,
probably smart. I mean, wait, did you say now we
have to put in smoke detectors? Is that is that
a I cut that word and made me think, is
that a new law in New Zealand? Myles things, we've

(16:57):
been playing it pretty fast and loose with the re
into accommodation here for a long time. That everyone talks
about how like beautiful New Zealand is. What they don't
talk about is that we have basically descended into a
landed gentry here. There is like one percent of the
population that owns all the property in the US under

(17:18):
their thumb in the government only listens to the property
owning class. Oh I've heard that tune. Yeah, yeah, that
finacially sounds pretty familiar. Hey man, y'all doing that down
there too? Hey all right, land of gentry all over
the world, the neo feudalism, and we will like break
me off a piece of that good, good American living.

(17:38):
Oh so, oh so, then so re up and so
it is a new mandate. Essentially, we're like landowners being like, oh,
what do we gotta do now? Like make sure there's
no landing the pace? Come on exactly next day. What's next,
you're telling me, I got to build with a space
stofs for God's saying, it's gonna bankrupt me. What's next?

(17:58):
We've got to make sure that we use building codes
that are uniform and safe for seismic activity. Come on, now,
it's so messed up, man, When even people come here
from like Canada or the UK, they say the same thing.
If you come here and it's not something, they're like,
what the funk are you guys doing with your houses
because we just do not insulate them. This is so

(18:21):
is so cold and it gets cold here. Yeah, l
A is similar actually having lived multiple places, l A
doesn't admit how cold it gets in l A. Like
the Pacific Ocean is fucking frigid for most of the year,
and anywhere near the Pacific gets pretty cold at night,

(18:42):
and then you just freeze because there's rarely any heating.
The houses are built out of They've never installation, just
good vibes, you know, dressed wood. Bad news is we
didn't put any fire. The glass in the walls. The
good news is we got you two quartz crystals to

(19:03):
keep you warm at and the doors knobs are made
of shun gate. What is something you think is underrated
to nothing? Nothing is underrated. Everything rules, Everything's great. Everyone
just needs to embrace it. Can I be honest with
you as well? Like, I'm so uninterested in talking about
myself because that tease you gave of the news Rundown,

(19:27):
it's got me thirsty. Boys like that was that was
some intense stuff. Get me in there. Yeah, nothing's underrated
at all. Nothing is that well I don't know, man, No,
nothing's underrated. I'm going to stick to my word. I
just think everyone needs to be a little more positive
and recognized that we're above ground. If you're hearing this,

(19:48):
that's cool. You've got a functioning brain and likely some ears.
That's fucking cool man. That means you could listen to
music if you want. Because you are in the Southern hemisphere,
things are reversed. So for you, underrated means overrated, and
overrated means underrated. But we should explain that to the listeners.
And when you when you joined us on the call,
you were upside down literally in the zoo. Yeah, so inverted.

(20:17):
I would love to like claim to that being intentional,
but there was an accident, but it was. It was perfect.
I'm a perfect comedian, you might say, what can I say?
I'm a Jesus podcasting and a comedian comedian. Just a
force an answer from you. What is a food that
you feel that is from New Zealand that doesn't get
enough recognition. I mean, I think savory pies is one

(20:41):
of our great gifts to the world because we're really
we're serious about them here. Meat pies in America. It's
weird because there's certain woods that we kind of get
twisted a little bit because a pie in America is
what we would consider it's not quite a cake. But
you know, if you say, I don't know, man, got tart,

(21:02):
you go to a bakery, you're like, let me get
one of those, and they're like, I know what. Beat
pries don't really have ample pies. They've got like mate pies,
you know, like we just we don't. We don't eat
a lot of apple pie, right, But so pie is
just a more American thing, and like the way we
know pie, which is like a no crust on top
sort of thing, dessert thing versus you know what maybe

(21:25):
the birds would call a pasti or something. I would
call that something. Is that a tart? If there's no
crust on the top, is that a tat? Oh? Right,
so then maybe yeah, a tartlet a tart? Team Yeah, Okay,
So I guess they have like fancy European words and
we're just over being like it's pie. Yeah, but it
would say just the concept of mate pie. You guys,
don't really embrace it, right, No, and we and it's

(21:47):
funny because we love those two words in America, so
that combination should do dollars. It's a billion dollar IDEs yea.
If someone introduces a franchise of of like New Zealand
mate pies into a America, I think it could really
tear ship up because we love chicken pot pie. You
can put really low grade mate in there too, like yeah, yeah,

(22:09):
cat food pie, cat food Yeah, I like that, Miles.
You're like, but what do you call the just caked
in processed sugar cake? Like what what do you how
do you get your dose of You must have a
different way of getting your dose of a processed sugar
that floods your brain with enough. How are you guys

(22:31):
delivering diabetes to the it's called it. We have high
froc dose cordings, heyrup in everything. That's how we do it,
all right, Tim, We are going to take a quick
break and we will be right back to get to
those news stories. And we're back, and Texas is Texas

(23:03):
saying big times. So Governor Greg Abbott and his married
band of fascists have not given up on passing a
bunch of bills that would turn the clock back to
the nineteen thirties. Ish. Yeah, yeah, it might be we

(23:24):
might be being too hard on the nineteen thirties. But
the uh yeah, you know, they see the demographic changes
that are coming their way and they need to protect
their you know, white supremacy, so they are doing everything
they can to make it so that you know, the

(23:46):
population as it exists in Texas can't vote. Yeah, I mean,
that's that's the that's the easiest way to hold onto
power when you have a platform that is unappealing to
most and it completely doesn't acknowledge you know, the uh,
the humanity of the people that live in your state. So,
you know, the bills. We've talked about this because a
lot of Republican controlled states after the presidential election and

(24:09):
because of the big lie. They're using this premise of like,
we need more voter security to essentially strip away all
the ways that makes it easier for people to vote.
And that's how they're you know, potentially combatting the voter
security question, which is a total fallacy. So in Texas,
they want to ban drive through polling places, they want
to just severely restrict absentee voting. And twenty four hour voting,

(24:33):
which helps if you have a you know, restrictive job schedule,
that you have the ability to vote at any time
of day. And even you know, most fucked up is
like give poll watchers essentially like the ability to just
beat at a polling place and intimidate the funk out
of whoever they want and really again create create scenes
that we haven't seen since you know'd say, Jim Crow.

(24:55):
And this isn't the first time they've tried to do this.
The last time they tried to pass the those Democrats
left in protest, They left like the capitol to you know,
prevent them from achieving a quorum to actually have a vote.
And then this time that the governor called a special session,
they wanted to force a vote, but now over fifty Democrats,
they chartered planes to leave the state again to this

(25:19):
time to prevent them from achieving a quorum to have
a vote, to go to d C to lobby their
federal counterparts to pass some fucking bills. Because right now
in the Senate, we see like with the for whatever reason,
the intent to hold onto the filibuster is preventing you know,
HR one and for the people act, like the robust

(25:39):
voting rights bills that we're trying to pass that would
make it easier for everyone to vote, not just Democrats, Republican,
fucking everyone, just to say, hey, this is how it works, right,
we vote here and they may the best thing win. Yeah, exactly.
So one of the state representing St. Martinez Fisher, he said, quote,
this is a moment that is going to wake America up.
We have to decide if we're going to stand for democracy.

(26:02):
We want the nation to join us, and we want
the U. S. Senate to hear us and act because
this isn't this isn't you know, them saying they just
don't agree with the legislation, like they're they're for votes
that they're constantly outnumbered in and they still vote for
them to leave. They're trying to show everybody this is
so outside of the norms that people need to be
paying attention to what's happening here to the point that

(26:24):
they're risking quote unquote arrest. And I use that term
loosely because Governor Abbott has like doing w w E
style commentaries like and I'll keep doing special votes and
special sessions and for until we get to election. Day
and I don't care, and if they come back, I
will send the sheriffs or whatever to to arrest these
members them. Yeah, essentially there will be arrested and arrested

(26:47):
and cabined until they vote. But again, there aren't any
laws on the books that actually like that, lea what
they're doing. Say there it's a crime. But they did
just vote to authorize the sergeant at arms to go
out and arrest the legislators. But again that's something their
jurisdiction is restricted to Texas, and would you know, it's
a lot of it's a lot of blustering, but is happening.

(27:09):
It's so crazy to me that takes us as the
state that culturally is like, don't treat on me, small state,
get out of my affairs. Liberty for all. And then
it's like, okay, what about me, I'm a woman and
would like to have control of my own body. Fucking no,
it's like, what about me, I vote for a different party?

(27:30):
No fun you do. It's just like asshole, its terms
and restrictions apply. It's so naked, it's so like, it's
crazy that they can get away with it, and it's
so naked. Can I just I had to google this
because it's too perfect. There's a quote by Hunter S.
Thompson which is like so prescient. The Republican establishment is

(27:51):
haunted by painful memories of what happened to old man
Bush and ninety two. He peaked too early and had
no response to It's the economy stupid, which has always
been the case every GOP administration since nine two, is
let the military industrial complex loot the treasury and plunge
the nation into debt on the excuse of wartime economic emergency.
Next and quickly comes to mind, along with Reagan and

(28:13):
his ridiculous trickle down theory of US economic policy. If
the rich get wretched, the theory goes long before their
parts will overflow, it will somehow trickle down to the poor,
who would rather eat scraps off the Bush family plates
than nothing at all. Republicans have never approved of democracy,
and they never will. It goes back to pre industrial
America when only white male property owners could vote. Yeah, yeah,

(28:36):
that's it. It's still the same thing, still the same agenda,
just new characters, new costumes. It's but it's like it's
if it didn't affect so many people in such an
awful way. It would be interesting to observe from a
scientific point of view because the group of people there,
you know, taking the rights away from, is increasing and
the amount of people that they represent is shrinking, so

(28:59):
they to do these more and more tyrannical things and
like just nakedly anti democratic, you know, boadline authoritarian luamaking
to suppress the vote. And it's like, at what point
did they trip over the line where people are actually like, yo,
what the fuck? You can't like this is crazy? It's hard.

(29:21):
I mean, it's it's bubbling up because right now a
lot of especially Democrats and progressives and and anyone who's
interested in voting rights are looking at what's happening in
the lack of movement from especially the Senate because we
have this stupid, arcane mechanism called the filibuster in place
where if you watch on MSNBC, even for MSNBC, you'll

(29:41):
have people like Casey Hunt say called the filibuster the
tool of the minority rather than a relic of the
most racist times. But okay, MSNBC, thank you for your
really cool of coverage. But they're like, you know, they
won't do away with it because that is one of
the biggest roadblocks to passing a lot of these wills
to have, like even with the just you know, mathe

(30:03):
slim mathematical majority that the Democrats have, and hopefully I
think these legislators from Texas are hoping to put more
pressure on these senators and people in Congress to do
something because they're saying, if you don't handle it up here,
we're getting we don't have the numbers to do it
at the state level. So this is the only place
where you're going to ensure any kind of outcome, especially

(30:24):
for your federal offices as well. This affects everyone, and
I think a lot of us here are looking at
the President and Joe Biden and wondering, like, oh, you're
at this point. It just seems like he's refusing to
really take this seriously because I think, like, you know,
without the fillerbuster in place, a lot of real progressive
policy could come through that would change things for you

(30:46):
know that I guess the status quo in DC will
be it's necessary like that. That's the thing that I
think people are ignoring is that, like like you said, Tim,
like because the demographics are changing, the Republicans are going
to like this is only going to get work and
more blatant. Their authoritarianism is only going to get more extreme,

(31:10):
and there needs to be changes to the laws to
to protect against that. But I think people are just
because Trump lost the election, they're just less less concerned
about it and paying less attention. But like the central
like Republican Party has only grown more and more like

(31:30):
startlingly authoritarian, and nothing, nothing's really being done about it.
Do you remember, I think it was the second Obama
election and the Republicans got their ass handed to them,
and then they came out with that report about the
changing demographics of the country and how they needed to
basically extend an all of branch to the Hispanic community,

(31:53):
and like they were you know, you get these little
I mean that maybe that was that was it, and
then they ignored it. But there were these little signs
that every now and then they kind of know what
they need to do, and then they just go and
ignore it. And that's why I say, like, it doesn't
have to be you don't have to walk down this
road of absolute tyranny. And I think they're only doing

(32:13):
it because they're so entrenched in the system of just
fulfilling the wishes of these billionaires that fund the party.
And not to say that the Democrats don't do you know,
their own version of that, but it just seems it
seems like such a smaller, richer, more evil minority of
people who are calling the shots with the GOP. But
I did want to ask you, Timp, what is registering

(32:36):
for voting like in New Zealand? Like how many forms
do you have to fill out? How many different how
many to make sure that you are registered? And then
which ideas and proofs of address do you need to
bring to the poll to make sure that you are
registered to vote. In our last general election, which was

(32:57):
last year, we had it hatch to the general election
where you you know, pick what party is going to
be in power and what polit fessian will represent your
area that you live in. We also had a referendum
on cannabis law reform and I went to the polls
Stoned with no wallet, I D or anything and cast

(33:18):
my vote. That's how like it literally could not be
easier to vote in New Zealand. Do you just fill
out you just sort of you your self identify like
on your ballot so they know who the vote is
attributed to or how does it? How we've gone, We've
actually got some pretty good system. So there's like they're
they're genuinely has been a massive effort in New Zealand

(33:39):
to make it as easy as possible, and we've got
I can't remember what they're called, but they're like an
easy vote card. So you register, you know, a little
bit earlier, you make sure that your details are correct
on the electoral role, and then they will post you
just a little business card sized slip of paper that's
got a number on it. You go, you go, and
you take that to a polling volunteer at the polling
station on the day and like that's a there's a

(34:01):
sheet of paper you put I think it's actually may
even be pre filled with your name, and then you
just take a couple of boxes and that's your that's
your ballot cast and the lines are really like I
don't want to rub it because I see the news
footage of you know, especially minority community is just waiting
in the cold for twelve hours and people delivering them

(34:22):
food just to cast a ballot, and it breaks my
fucking heart. Man. And again it's one of those like
huge disconnects between America exporting the story of itself being
you know, the greatest democracy in the world, in the
birthplace of democracy. It's like you fucking me, We we
just have the best pr machine ever. It's great to
have dreams, it's great to have goals, but you've got

(34:44):
to kind of be real about your current situation and
what you're going to do to hit them, you know,
like that factor Judge where the US is doing their
act as great democracy, Like, we love what you did,
but you know, I had to hit the buzzer on
that because it was following a little bit short in accuracy. Department,
Just keep working at it and we hope to see
you next season. Yeah. I can see the intent though.

(35:05):
The intent is there, and I appreciate that, but I
feel like Americans don't even acknowledge like how simple the
government could make it if they wanted to, Like it
is it's super intentional. Yes, if I can tell you
one thing from it is and it's like, I imagine
really expensive to do that, Like it seems to me

(35:28):
just intrinsic, like like it would be cheaper just from
to allow people to vote and not put these roadblocks
up because all of them represent a barrier that someone's
got to you know, force in like these id checks
and that someone someone's actually got to be there doing
those idea checks. But there's going to be a system whatever.
It's you know, everyone's heards a million times before. It's

(35:50):
not about voted fraud. Voted fraud does not exist in
any statistical way in America. It's not it does. It's
typically it's been Republicans that have been hot over the
last year. I've been like, I'm sorry, man, I've made
my j didn't like half this family vote in a
different state the way I reside to try and like
swing ship. I mean, I think they were just errant

(36:12):
le vote. I mean it's again, it's like it's like
these stupid little attempts from people thinking they're going to
be heroes by doing this really light of voter fraud.
But yeah, that's all that, you know, this whole concept
because to your point of like, it's never just it's
if the white ruling class and that balance of power
begins to be upset, this is when the bills start

(36:33):
coming in. This is when state houses start jerrymandering. This
is when they start restricting voting rights. Because again, they
like voting only if it serves their purposes. And now
we're seeing them be like, Okay, there's too many of them.
We gotta pull up the gate, we gotta pull up
the ladders. We gotta make sure that it's impossible now,
because this thing is gonna get away from us. And
the freak thing is the Republicans have understood for a

(36:53):
long time how to do this. The structural stuff organization
is not the federalist society that understand the power of
state legislatures and getting judges on the benches all the
ship that, like I imagine typical Americans don't really pay
much attention to because you're living your goddamn lives. You know,
you're you're keeping the lights on, you're trying to pay rent,
look after your family. And the Republicans are like putting

(37:16):
all of the most dastardly people and these roles where
they can just tweak shit enough and a little bit
here and a little bit there in this court and
you know, the sheriff's department, and then all of a sudden, yeah,
you've got like a third of the state that can't
cast a ballot. It's so crazy America loves to brag
about how we have like the best colleges in the world,
but all are like educated. All that education is going towards, uh,

(37:41):
like educating people to be in the federalist society, like
how the looted ways to make voting harder. And I
got to say this though the advertising industry I get.
I get sweeped up in this stuff when I'm on
podcast like this, and I've I've got to just put
it on the record. I fucking love America and I
love American Okay, okay, yeah, I mean nothing you said

(38:07):
would indicate otherwise. I mean that like the only thing
you've you've been on podcast where you said something you
made an observation about americanly like this guy fucking hates America. Man,
it's very easy to get into a deep spiral about
how bad the democratic process says over the people like oh, yeah, no,
welcome to Welcome to this show. It's called the Daily
Dust Spiral. Yeah yeah, I was listening to your stand

(38:30):
up about how much more progressive the healthcare system and
grand theft auto is than the U. S healthcare system.
I thought that was a really good observation. And no,
lies not not a single lie detective even yeah, name
has a utopia of a medical like it's wish fulfilment.

(38:52):
It's like, goddamn, could you imagine? All right, let's take
another quick break and then we'll come back and talk
about that man. And we're back and news Max has

(39:12):
a theory that they're working on that Donald Trump is
actually a lot like Batman. Bro, you think about it,
what do they do? First of all, when I saw this,
I'm like, what are we doing? What's going on here?
Like Stephen Robinson and wanct he wrote this thing up
just because like just bringing our attention to this. Benny Johnson,

(39:35):
who's spent and in this is apparently a whole segment
of his show, The Benny Report, essentially being like, hey man,
Donald Trump is a lot like Batman, y'all. I don't
know if you guys know about this, And I'm not
even gonna play you know what here, let me let
me play a little sound lease you can hear someone
out loud trying to extol the virtues of Donald Trump

(39:58):
as Batman. Welcome to The Benny Report. I'm Batman. Actually
I'm Benny Johnson, but as many of you know, we
are enormous Batman fans on this show. The Dark Knight
is America's finest superhero for obvious reasons. He is tough,
he has the best tools and villains to fight, and
unlike those villains and many of his fellow superheroes, Batman

(40:20):
has no special supernatural powers. He has no DNA mutation.
He wasn't born on an alien world. Batman is just
a guy who loves his hometown. That's his superpower. His
motivation is not trying to protect the galaxy. No, Bruce
Wayne's motivation is simple and local. So this is how

(40:42):
he starts it off. Let me get to the part
where he starts talking about Trump as released Batman. Yes,
a Batman. I love that clip. I love that clip.
Was there no more? A fortuitous clip into thousand and sixteen?
Amazing a classic, And in a way it's true. Both

(41:04):
Trump and Batman are rich, mysterious, unpredictable guys. They own
skyscrapers and Gotham. They have a cult like hero status
for throwing their privileged lives away and getting their hands
in dirty. I'm done, I'm not playing anymore. What the
fuck is this guy? I've never heard that guy before.
In my life. But terrifies me that people were like

(41:27):
the guys mimicking Tucker Calson's Into Nation his host and
rhythms is just a yeah, yeah, I mean Tugger Crossing
one of one of our great intellectuals, so you gotta
you gotta follow in his footsteps. But yeah, you know
he said after the privilege throwing their privileged life the

(41:49):
way he says, both have a helicopter end up plane shut.
The only thing they have in common is they've both
got severe issues with their father and that drives most
of the adastardly dates. And I think that's the starting
end of it exactly. And you know, and I get why,
you know, Steven Robinson was taking the take of like
he's nothing like Batman. But I think for us, the

(42:12):
way we look at Batman on this show, I mean
that's if you just if you preserve Batman as a hero,
you know, like we look at Batman as shitty billionaire
with daddy issues who thinks he knows what's best for everybody,
and he's going outside of the law to create some
world that he thinks is best. In that sense, I
think they're very similar and shitty rich dudes but yeah,

(42:34):
it's just another thing that he was pointing out this
article is that, like one of the writers of the
Batman comics in the eighties, he was actually like, it's funny,
is I based my Lex Luther character on Donald Trump?
Like when I was creating this, like like like plotline
in the in the Batman series I was writing. So
it's like, wow, fucking guy. Anyway, I'm curious to know

(42:54):
what this does. I even thought of Batman and that
why that you just lighted out, Miles, But like now
they you sort of say it my brain sort of
taking that over. He's like the worst version of it,
a guy who works with the cops but will go
even further. Yeah, he's a libertarian. He's like a violent
libertarian who refuses to give any money to social programs,

(43:18):
like does not create it, like if he funded the
schools of Gotham and the health care system and Gartham
and like created jobs for Gotham or just like fucking
paid his taxes. Who who was the Secretary of Education,
Betsy Divice? What's her brother's name? Who runs like Eric Prince.

(43:39):
He's more he's like Eric Prince. He's a localized Prince. Yeah, exactly.
So who do you rickon? Trump is like though from
the comic book world, Like if you had to pick anyone,
I mean Lex. Yeah, he's not cool enough to be
Lex loth It in any way, shape or form, right,
He's like he's like Crank from teenage Mutant Ninjo Tatoes

(44:01):
like dumping. He's hiding in a larger body that like
hiding behind Mago World to be like, oh I maybe
as a creepy little wet brain, but check out this
big old baby that's a monster that will break ship
called my Mago Crew exactly. He's like shitty Master Blaster
or something. Yeah, I mean some versions of Lex Luthor

(44:25):
are very like transparently insecure and like working from a
place where they're just like he's just mad that he's
bald and also like just comparing himself to Superman and
unable to like fill the whole that Superman is created
inside of him. And in that respect, I feel like

(44:46):
he's not He's not a bad luck Lex Luthor. It's true.
He Kin'd exist without a antagonist like a few like
Trump's existence is riotling against it. He's not for or anything.
He's just against a bunch of ship and I'm curious
to know, Like, I mean, obviously this is intentional. He
he feels that this is worth saying to his audience,

(45:07):
this Benny Joker guy. But like, I'm curious if in
it they're like, yeah, man, what we really need to
do is get more people to see Donald Trump for
the the batman that he is. Like rhetorically, I'm curious
what the aim is because I don't think these people
need more reason to deify Trump, Like it's already fully
become a death cult, so maybe this is just to

(45:28):
keep that momentum. Like, and remember he's also Batman too,
and he's also Jesus and Santa starring in a new
action film that you're gonna love. Coming up is someone
who did call himself the Jaysus of podcasting earlier this
very episode. I will say that it's it's pretty terrifying
because it seems like they are gearing up to run
him again, Like oh yeah, yeah, I think they want to.

(45:53):
Yeah do you who do you think? I mean, his
body's gonna run again? Do you think? Because I honestly
think Trump would bait Kamala Harris like pretty handily. It
all depends on what happens, you know, in in the
build up, because there's certain like there's campaign finance laws
that people think he's already running a foul of Like
he's been really weird with his fundraising. There's some things

(46:14):
that may by the affect no no, no Trump just
like in the long term. But I know, I think
based on how strong his brand is, they it's looking
that way. The unfortunate part is because the whole party
is just a bunch of grifters, Like there's a lot
of undercutting of each other that's happening to either be

(46:35):
like viewed by Trump as being like someone that he
will endorse or to potentially immediately take his place the
second he falls out of grace or something with like
maga world. So it's a very it's just a very
cutthroat world on on the right and the left, but
like over there, like there's so much performative like magatry,

(46:55):
as I like to call it, happening for people to
sort of make their case on if Donald Trump doesn't
then I should be the person. But yeah, I think
at the end of the day, it's probably the easiest
person to run that already has a ton of name recognition,
but also a lot of people you know, may come
out against him again. Yeah, I mean his performance in
the last election was still like shockingly and I don't

(47:19):
think there's any chance that unless they can somehow get
like high up Republicans to turn on him in a
way that like actually makes it so he can't run.
I I don't think there's anything that's stopping him from
running again. They are in a bit of a like
a weird place too, because rhetorically and what their agenda

(47:41):
could be is like they're running on a platform saying
the election was stolen in the January sixth insurrection wasn't
a big deal, and they're using that to you know,
get get more of the base sort of whipped up
into a fervor to be able to take that energy
into mid terms and then eventually a general election or
presidential election. But a lot of the posters who work

(48:03):
on the right and like that's not a good message
if we're trying to expand the base in any way,
like going full on it was a lie and January
six was done by Antifa, like that that's that's gonna
sort of narrow the field and a lot of candidates
who are running as Republicans are weary of that being like,
I don't know if that's the best thing for me

(48:24):
to say based on the people I'm going up against.
So there's a lot to you know, reconcile. But at
the end of the day, I don't think they really
give a ship. Yeah, no, not at all. Well, I
don't wanna go from the future. Fall of American society
is something even more serious. But we have learned a
little bit more about the Fraser reboot and it's not

(48:47):
looking good. Fellas, can I can I freely admit something? Yeah,
this is the very fist I'm hearing of a Fraser reboot.
This morning was the first I had heard of it
as well. What the fun is going on is it?
Did you watch the show at all? Yeah? Okay, I did.
I barely watched it. I mean, I know Tangent are
very sort of from a ten thousand foot view who

(49:09):
some of the people are, but yeah, I love Chelsea Grammar,
big Grammar head though. Yeah, I think that him being
cast as Hank McCoy and Xman was like one of
the greatest casting decisions in the cinema. But in terms
of frises, like I've seen it isn't I've seen the
wool piper in my house, you know, like they arrive. Yeah,
it's omnipresent, like Jesus all around us. And when uh,

(49:35):
we thought we were alone at Fraser was actually carrying
us on his shoulders. But so this is less a
reboot of Frasier and more of a reboot of the
theme song of Frasier in the sense that it's only
Kelsey Grammar. It's clearly only Kelsey Grammer's idea for him
to do it, and it's kind of like embarrassing that

(49:58):
he's doing it, you know, do you mean it's only him?
So okay, let's let's get into it. Two weeks ago,
Fraser was saying, we have a story to tell, and
you know that can actually be told with or without them,
honestly talking about like the cast. But I want them
back because that's what I always dreamed of. I thought

(50:19):
we should explore all of their lives and their third
act and so that is my hope, and I'm fairly
confident they'll come back. So and then, uh, most recently,
we have learned none of them all of them said no.
But we're we're also learning Fraser is gonna change cities again.
So that's interesting. That's gonna be exciting. You know, we've

(50:40):
seen Boston, we've seen Seattle. Where where is he going
to go next? Another detail that we've learned is all right,
so Grammar revealed that Fraser's life quote takes him in
another direction and he becomes rich beyond his dreams? Is
he right? Again? They did not write the original show.

(51:01):
It's like it was an actor. They played a part,
enjoyed it, it went away for a long time, and
now he's writing fan fiction for himself. That's exactly right.
And this and this and this version of Dr Crane
Fox big graphically and all on camera. Yeah. So the
guy who, like we, I think that was the question

(51:21):
on all of our minds, is like, what does this
guy who lived in a luxury condo and drove a
BMW and spent a small fortune on Latte's and fancy
French dinners? What would he do if he actually had money?
And we're gonna find out the answer to that. Uh's
that's just like such a an amazing I can't imagine

(51:47):
was so out of touch as someone who's seen the
Six in the City to movie fifty two times, which
is a film that came out in two thousand and night,
just as the global financial crisis was happening like an
ally time, the greatest pinpoint of when the whole economic
house of cards that the elite had stacked up and

(52:08):
fucked the rest of us. The sexons that he too
movie came out where the gals go to the Middle East,
and it is just right dripping with this disgusting, like
gold plated grotesque, you know, baubles of of of wealth everywhere.
I mean, this sounds on part frankly in terms of

(52:32):
how out attached it is with the moment and isn't
Kelsey Graham is like a bit weird politically now, a
bit a bit what's his deal? So he has basically
he's a like libertarian Republican. He's a vocal right winger,
and while he never explicitly campaigned for Trump, he offered

(52:54):
some supportive comments about how Trump's disruptions in the US
were a good thing. He sounds like he would have
been a John McAfee voter. Yeah. He claimed in sixteen
that the reason he didn't get or no, I guess
it was. You know, we we all remember the big
snub in when his performance in his show Boss didn't

(53:17):
get nominated for an Emmy, and we're all looking at
each other like, wait, where is this series at? What?
How is how is Boss not nominated? And he actually
went this is so he actually went on the Tonight
Show and said that the reason was because he is
an out of the closet Republican in Hollywood, so, you know,

(53:41):
appropriating the oppression of you know, the lgbt Q plus
community towards being a rich, out of touch. Yeah, the
victim mentality of these fuck is is cool, Like yeah, yeah,
I mean also, and then this version of the phrase
the crazier reboot is like such divorcee fan fiction too,

(54:03):
didn't didn't His like all of his marriages and relationships
recently crumbled too, So he's like yeah, and like now, dude,
he's like so rich and he can like look at
a woman and then her clothes fall off instantly. Yeah.
I think that from extras and I love that bit
where Patrick Stewart is able to do that. I kind
of folded that into the lore of Dr Frasier Crane.
Now instantly her clothes come off and she's trying to
cover up, but it's too late. I've already seen everything.

(54:24):
Plus I'm rich, Okay, so I mean I didn't. I
hadn't really followed along with Kelsey Grammer since his since Frasier,
I guess since Boss when when we all? You know,
I was just too disturbed by it's not getting an

(54:44):
eminum that I stopped watching it. But apparently he's been
making lots of shows that have all been like canceled
within episodes. There was the sitcom Partners where he and
Martin Lawrence are partners. That was a thing, and he
was a like, wacky racist guy. Cool. There's a show
Hank about a rich guy who, and I'm guessing Kelsey

(55:08):
didn't like this too much, loses all his money and
has to move into a very large house in Virginia.
So he's still living fine. It's like it's like they
tried to make you know, Ship's creek or arrested development
and he was like, now, now let's not go crazy.

(55:29):
He's not gonna like live in a bad place. It'll
still be a like two story house with you know,
all the plantation home in Virginia. Okay, very classy, little spooky,
though it would be cool if because it was called Hank,
it was like a Rick cond vision of what leads
to based becoming based on the X Man, like this

(55:52):
is Hank McCoy's origin story where it gets slided by
society and then just locks himself away doing self experimentation
comes out. Um, but this is going to be a
complete cluster fuck, like our writer jam was saying, it
might be a Roseanne like cluster fuck. But I think
that is like best case scenario for this. But some

(56:13):
of the past cast at least participated in that first
and then when she left it became like a good
show apparently people like and people actually watched it. I
I get the sense for this, what like what's he
gonna you know, like that first like that whatever the
pilot episode of this reboot is gonna have to do
a lot of housekeeping in terms of what the narratives now.

(56:34):
And he's gonna have all that, all those housekeepers to
do it for him because he's so rich now so rich,
and they're all naked. Their clothes come up instantly and
they can't cover up because I've already seen everything. But
like his whole like is he gonna be like, oh,
you know Niles and ros you know they were dealing
meth so they went, they're out there up and doing
time in leaven Worth. Like, what, what's going to be

(56:56):
the explanation? You know, because I remember Fuller House they
were saying, like the reason the Olsen twins weren't in
it was like, you know, Michelle's doing her fashion thing.
It was like a quick throwaway line to sort of
explain why the absence of the Olsens. Like what you
do when it's only fucking Kelsey Grammar and only him?
What do you say then? How do you set this
up to bring fans in. I'm sure they'll get Bulldog,

(57:18):
the like sports radio guy. I'm sure he'll he'll be
already again for the paycheck. The dad passed away recently,
right because he was fantastic. Yeah, the dog was really cool.
I think the dog died. It sounds like Daphne's not
getting involved. Daphne, Roz and uh Niles Niles not, none
of them are back. According to Kelsey, it'll be great.

(57:41):
He's just ship talking to him all like you'll know
if he how how much of a hand he has
in their writing. When it's just like everything's just ripping
down those other characters. There's no way this will get
to right, Like really I would, I would love, Oh,
it absolutely will. Do you think it will? Do you
think this is a say a lot of that because
it's on Paramount Plus, so it's not like a thing

(58:04):
where they're going to have to go through a elaborate
piloting process. I think it'll probably be more like right,
I mean, I don't know. Maybe Paramount Plus has a
higher standard than I'm imagining, but I feel like it's
easier to get something to a full season of episode
that we can watch and I enjoy then like on

(58:26):
a streaming service like Paramount Plus, that's just starting off. Yeah,
I mean it if you know, if Paramount Plus is
out here, it's Viacom, CBS, so it's their show, Like right,
they're gonna do it. I can't imagine. I mean, that
would be such an embarrassment to do all this press,
announce it and then be like, you know what, we

(58:49):
I don't know what the funk A thinking man, like
how we thought it could be a reboot with one
guy in the story is completely different. It's not even
the same show and nobody's watching. But I don't know
what we shall see we shall see, but I think
I do think that this time of like reboots of
previously beloved shows, is kind of coming to a close.

(59:10):
Fuller House was recently canceled after five seasons, even though
the cast was all like, I mean, we do more.
You want us to do more, We'll do more right
here for you. Like Bob Sag it's got a lot
of people knocking down his door at the Mondent and look,
Laurie Lawson was like, yeah, man, as soon as I
get out of jail. And the Sex and the City thing,

(59:32):
Like the most attention it got was by just photo
shopping other characters into the Kim Cattrells. But when they
released that, like still say, how the characters we all
know it? Sven daysel Svend Dazel over and over again.
There's also Paddington come yeah, or the one from the
I think you should leave Sketch when he's wearing no

(59:59):
skin bust me. I don't even want to be around anymore.
I don't want to be around anymore. That when I
think Anna sent us or she sent us one of
the names about that with the Sex in the City
plus back, I'll watch that all right. Well, Tim, it
has been such a pleasure having you on the dailies

(01:00:21):
like gas where can people find you? Follow you here?
You all that good stuff. It's been a delight. Thanks
for having me on. I wasn't anticipating, after all the
chat of the fall of democracy in America that Fraser
was going to be the thing that depressed me most
in the news run down. But here we are. I'm online.
I'm an online boy. I'm on Twitter. Tim underscore bat
b A t T the podcast as wirst idea of

(01:00:43):
all time. And yeah, I've got a little bit of
stand up flatting around online that but that you're referring
to before Jack about me lackening g t A's healthcare
system to America's too great comedic effect that was crazy
on tektok, But Techtok kind of scares the shit out
of me, So just put a few clips up and
that when we nuts and I was like, I don't
like this ship. If I don't know I'm on there right, Yeah,

(01:01:07):
I mean it's weird. It's like the most plugged into
like a hive mind. It's literally a Chinese company training
an ai like and I'm not exaggerating or have a
tinfoil head on, like the company that owns TikTok are
an AI company and they just made this as almost
an experiment to train like a deep learning algorithm, and

(01:01:30):
it took off. And the implications of that a little
bit freaky to me. Yeah yeah, but hey, that that
means that that's that's good material right there. And when
viral throwing it all the way there you go, So
it can't be that bad. Is there a tweet or
some other work of social media you've been enjoying. Okay,

(01:01:52):
there's a guy, a friend of mine called Sam Brooks
who writes for an outlet called The spin Off. He
tried to stay twenty four hours and the denis and
he chronicled his experience and he got sadly kicked out
by the manager after about teen hours, and it was
just it was an adventure in a journey that spoke
to my heart. Is someone who like punishes himself with

(01:02:15):
these voyages of bad media, and it inspired me and like,
I want to see if maybe I could achieve something similar.
Check that out. Sam Brooks is his name. Um, if
you look up like Denny's twenty four hours spin Off,
it'll come up. It's a beautiful tale that sounds amazing.
Miles where can people find you? What's the tweet you've
been enjoying? Find me Twitter, Instagram at Miles of Gray.

fifth grade soon, this might help. It is a list
of dudes and don'ts for fifth grade by Jamie Loftus,
and there's eleven of them. I'm not gonna read them

(01:03:28):
all to you, but there's such grades as if you
want to talk to a boy, don't be shy, speak
up and number three substitute teachers don't give them the
time of day? Uh number five, which is so like
what for watch your regular shows? But I had a
couple of mature shows like Friends and or The Cause

(01:03:48):
by show uh five, improve your wardrobe where some sparkles
and glitter more attitude shirts. Uh, I don't know what
attitude shirts are, but it's just like she was writing
in the voice of Barbon Star, like as a fifth grader,
really time a day, don't give that substitute teachers, don't

(01:04:08):
give them the time of day? Is my favorite thing
that I've ever read. Panicked actor who passed just a
really easy test just so you had someone else fall
back on. Don't get from the time of day? What
substitute are in l A And then Al at the

house E D M. Kind of tracked, but it's like
it's it's real easy. It's not like overly aggressive. It's
like you feel like you're in a coffee shop where
it's way too expensive, but the aesthetic and decorsi really nice.
