Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to season two oh four,

(00:23):
a b y you dorm nightly while my friend shakes
the bet don't move, don't move a single inch, you
stay completely still out do a plank. Oh, soak me.
That is courtesy of get baxt On Twitter, they said

(00:45):
it was courtesy the Cranberries, but that that song is
actually by Sixpence on the Richer. But your brain blocked
that band name out because it is the most annoying
band name of all time. Maybe, And I'm thrilled to
be joined as always by my co host Mr Miles
Ground Don't come around you. Oh the commedist gave thumbs

(01:09):
down no. And for those people who don't remember that,
we were talking about how commedists from Gladiator may have
been the origins of thumbs up and thumbs down. There
our culture into oblivion. Shout out to Andrew bub on
the dis board because I really missed that song Dirk commissar. Also,
it is October five, and we got to forgot to

(01:29):
tell you it is National Get Funky Day, National Get
Funky Day. So however, you gotta get funky, you go
off and do that. I almost felt like I didn't
need to tell people. It's like Christmas, Halloween and National
Get Funky Day are like the days that we all
have marked on our calendar, right b Yeah, Happy National
and Get Funky Day. They say, hey, get funky and

(01:51):
get out of your punk from the people who trying
to promote it, So get out. Who are these We
really need to look into the international a industrial Complex
because they're doing good work out there. Miles. We're thrilled
to be joined in our third seat by one of
the funniest stand up comedians doing it. She's the co
host of The scroll Down on head Gum and you

(02:14):
could and should go get her stand up album, The
Wolf Bully. Please welcome the hilarious that talented Marcel. Marcel
got the best of you. But I just keep coming
back incessantly. Oh what do they keep bringing me back

(02:35):
on the show? Because I'm funny as fuck even when
I make you bitch just mad. I just improvised that.
Thank you. I was trying to get funny with you guys,
very funny. I was like, is I don't have syllables? Yes?
I got there. No, you got it. I used to.

(02:56):
And then I embarrassed myself at a Tell you you
are just playing the qualities of someone who does freestyle
because you're like, let me fift these syllables. And I
got it. I got this and I landed the plane.
I'm like, okay, I was here in a cipher with
a backpack on. I was nervous. Halfway through. I was like,
I think I'm not gonna get it. You embarrassed yourself
at a T quality show. Yeah, they tell it was late.

(03:19):
Also fun tell him quality. He's like really piece of
ship online to women. But anyways, he was hella late
at a show in Medesta. This was the years ago,
probably like fifteen years ago maybe, and he was hell
of late. So they were just like letting people freestyle
on stage. Shout out to the bat. But it was
hell of funny because I this used to be back

(03:42):
I don't even know. I might have already been doing comedy.
I don't remember, but this was back when, like if
I was ever out anywhere at like a show or something,
and there was no women performing, I would fucking insertain myself.
I didn't give a funk what my skill level was.
I was like, I didn't give a funk. And that
was one of those situations like just guys freestyling and
they're not even good and they're kind of looking six.

(04:03):
So I went on stage and people were just got
hiped because I was a woman on stage. It was ridiculous,
but it was not good. Do you remember the beat
that was playing? I don't. I have a really cool
picture though I looked like a badass, Like would you
like rocking the mic? Yeah, like my hand is up

(04:25):
like it was on Facebook. I don't know where it's anymore.
But it was a cool big oh yes, fucking cool.
That is the best retirement from freestyle. But I could POSI,
you know what. I also freestyle at a but you
know one of those white kids that have like UCB
rap shows. It was one of those type things, yeah,
like skinner and maybe maybe it was that and they

(04:47):
had me on and I kind of like pretty write
a really good rap obviously, but like, uh, free style.
But what's funny is I wasn't even that good. But
I embarrassed over my eagle that I made him look
bad and I was better than him, and that uh
fun with people a little bit, and I said I
insulted him or something. I forget what I said. I

(05:09):
don't know. I just made fun of him and have
the healing session. All right, Marcela, we're gonna get to
know you a little bit better in a moment. First,
a couple of things we're talking about. We're gonna check
back in with Christie Nome and her stance on nepotism.
It's just just a good old fashioned story of local nepotism.
We'll talk about We'll do a piece of good news.

(05:31):
The world's oldest rainforest was just handed back to its
indigenous owners, so we'll talk about that. We'll talk about
the Pandora papers. Of course, we will ask whether Facebook
is in trouble and what that means for the rest
of us. All of that, we might even get to
Diana the Musical. You have to I off the strength

(05:52):
of it. I caught the first act and I'm like,
oh my goodness, we taught. We're definitely we might just
talk about Diana the Musical then of that plenty more.
But first, Marcella, we do like to ask our guest,
what is something from your search history. I had to
google San Francisco Fleet Week because I didn't know what
the funk that was. And um, I'm in Modesto, California

(06:13):
right now, and we've been having these I've just been
me and my brother had been noticing these little like
cute little planes and like multiple planes at once for
just criss crossing. And I was like, what the fund
is going on? And then my friend who lives in
San Francisco was like, it's fleet Week and I was like,
what the fund is Fleet Week? And then I put
the thoughts together once I hit the Google. I didn't
read about it because I don't give a ship. It

(06:33):
just feels like a waste of money. Oh yeah, but yeah,
I guess that's happening this week and they are practicing
in Medesto, California, So what what is it? It's when
all the air shows or some stupid but it's like
a thing where like a lot of the like Navy people,
coast guard, like ship based military like come to town. Hm.

(06:55):
It's it's been a thing for like a minute. But
and then they'll have air shows and ship It's just
kind of yo, we're here, we're in the city, holes
all over the city, but they're using the money for
a fucking fleet week, right. I associated with like old timey,
like a bunch of sailors in their in their whites,
just like walking around and exactly causing trouble, getting into

(07:17):
fights and bars on the Lower East Side or whatever. Yeah,
that happens, and then they have a little Blue Angels,
you know, the party going on there too. It's one
of those traditions that feels really childish. Yeah, yeah, I
think they need to pick one. Why Why why are
the planes isn't that aren't they supposed to be on
the water. What's happening because they're launched from the aircraft

(07:37):
carrict Yeah whatever, no military expert, but I mean that's
a good thing, right, I'm sure gonna I'm gonna get
hate mail for mentioning that, right something to be like, Oh,
I served and it's a very important tradition. I feel
like a lot of the people that served and listened
to the show, like they come through with very enlightening
opinions on They're like, yeah, this is what's sucked up

(07:59):
about them? The here and like, thank you for that,
and they're gonna be like it adds millions of dollars
to the local economy. I feel like that's the Ted Cruise.
Ted Cruise is a big fan. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he does,
like the Daily Psychist. Weird. What is something you think
is overrated? Okay? I actually thought about this one because

(08:20):
I know I'm not always you know, very good at this.
I think you're one of the greats. Thank you. I
think that nineties movies are overrated in terms of content.
You know, you're like, oh, that used me my favorite movie,
and you watch and you're like, they're being transphoabic, they're
being homophobic. This is like all this movie is sexism,
I mean, and and racism and all the isms and

(08:43):
then and so like the nostalgialized and like you enjoyed
it as a little kid. You know. I would argue
that the only movie that stands a test of time
which is an eighties movie is Labyrinth, but that has
more to do with David's balls. So, but yeah, I
always think like nineties like a Spin Tour a great

(09:03):
example of something that like back You're likely tranic, Oh
my god, and we were kids enjoying it, like oh yeah,
that's gross and it's the worst case of hemorrhoids anyone
has ever seen. And then you're like then you get old,
You're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa? What is this?

(09:24):
And for a while I didn't even connect the two
until I I'm much older. I was just like, I
don't know, maybe the the character was the iron horns,
shit or pants, and I was just like, no concept
of anything else. And then you get only like, oh, whoa,
but see that's how they fucking infiltrate your brain, and
like you don't even realize why you're transphobic when you like,

(09:46):
when you're a teenager, you know, just like why my
suit and it's like, dude, the images are therapins you
were a kid, So that's overrated. What I think it's
underrated about nineties movies is the length. When can we
go back to hour and a half movies in theaters?
Because these stories are too long. They just they don't
know how to edit down anymore. And that I don't

(10:07):
even know. I couldn't even tell you. It's just everything.
It feels like they're just too long because you know,
especially especially as someone in the industry. I'm just like,
how did does not get cut out? It's pointless. Even
even going down to shows like I've been watching The
Morning Show and I'm like, this should not be an hour.
These scenes could be so much shorter. They just focused

(10:28):
on the editing. So I think the length of ship
is too long. Yeah, that's kind of because like I
remember over the weekend, I was talking to Anna about
the Sopranos movie and she's like, oh, it's three hours,
and I said, what the fuck? Yeah, exactly hours. And
I immediately was like having to have this like crossroads,
and like, I don't, I'll never don't. It's very hard

(10:49):
for me to say I'm gonna give you three hours
just like that, even though I will casually sit down
and watch like nine episodes of a reality show. Next thing,
I know, it's, you know, three in the morning, but
so real quick. I was just about to bring that
same thing up, but it looks like it's a it's
just two hours. So God just shows you how I'm
want a hair trigger when it comes to long movies.

(11:10):
Hours is still long for a movie? Yeah, two hours
is the most is the most absolute peak. I feel
like really. I think that's still too but I don't know.
I feel like everything can be shortened down a little bit. Sure,
I doesn't feel like if it's if it is over
two hours, just like just make a series, right, Yeah,

(11:32):
like The Irishman? How long was that? That was over
three hours after and you felt like an eternity. It
felt like a fucking lifetime. I mean. The other thing
is like part of the reason I don't even watch
some of these things is because they're too long, and like,
I'm not going to sit down and watch this this
is they're not going to get it from me and
my attention to man, maybe that shout out to a
d h D. I mean, maybe it's that, but um,

(11:53):
I just it's a movie. The Irishman is three and
a half hours long, which one The Irishman for what for?
What to watch an Irishman? No, thank you? Yeah, I
see plenty of those. Yeah. The nineties thing is really
funny too, because like, even like when I watched The Office, right,

(12:14):
there's times I love The Office, Like I've watched it
so many times, I can fucking I can say every
line from that show. But then there's a lot of
nuance in it. Where like you just see a lot
of casual ignorance just to be kind of like skirted
when like when I'm like, now, like I didn't know
you all should did that right there, Please do that
for the good of society, or even like in a
lot of nineties films too, when I go back and

(12:35):
watch it really does have you have a kind of
a moment where like I'm not actually enjoying watching this
because I'm I've just gained more experience and empathy over
the years, but I also just love the memory though
of like that time just me eating an ice cream
watching it, but not just that because I think about
how like I can still watch Seinfeld and like you know,
Elaine pushes their asses on sexism, and like even like

(12:58):
the whole like the gay episode, un if there's anything
wrong with that. I mean that was the nineties, so
it's like it's proof that that that those ideologies were
already existing on both ends, but it was like who
was making what, So especially when I watched Seinfeld, I'm like,
so it is possible so that some of the people
didn't know they just didn't give a ship, like they
really just leading into their their is ms, and it

(13:19):
and it shows when you watch anything especially from the nineties. Yes,
Seinfeld is going to be When when does that? Like Netflix?
Right now? Yeah? I think it was yesterday, two days ago. Okay, yeah,
that's back, baby, I'm ready. Is that? Do you think
that that's going to have like the resurgence to like

(13:42):
Friends or The Office had, like where people because I
do feel like it was so huge at that time
and now younger people like don't really funk with it.
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. It's
a good question. I mean it's been on Who this
whole time, so it's not like people didn't have access
to it, and uh, I don't know. I think I
think a lot of young people who just see four

(14:02):
white faces and they're like I'm not going to watch this,
which is understandable, But you're right, Friends had a little resurgence.
I just I don't think it would be possible because
of the whole Michael Richards incident that has really followed them.
And I just don't think like Julia Louie Dreyfus would
be down anyway. It's just like for what. Yeah, and
also like Seinfeld isn't the best, Like I feel like

(14:23):
like his politics are his stand up has gotten like
so fucking bad. I mean his stand up wasn't great
to begin with. I mean it was funny to me
because I was twelve. I watched it, you know, but
like now it's like, this isn't even funny. But you
can see why working as a team can make a
bit funnier, you know, like because some of his bits

(14:45):
were like the premises were, You're like, okay, this is interesting.
Oh my god, Podcat, Goldweight, fucking I guess they hate
each other. I did a show where he was talking ship.
It was so funny. I guess he spent at night
He's calling Seinfeld's comedy pedestri. Oh my god, he was
talking ship at the one show we were all together

(15:07):
and I loved everything. It was right. I remember how
comedians and cars getting coffee, the whole Bridget thing, and
they edited out and it was Bobcat. I mean, I'm
sure you guys heard it was. I don't know that.
One of the episodes Bridget, Everett and Seinfeld are talking
about a comic but it gets edited and and Jerry
expresses how much he doesn't like this person, which is

(15:27):
not like him. He never probably ships on anybody, and
so uh like people I don't know. The Internet did
its thing and they figured out that it was Bobcat.
And then Bob Kat was talking about it on stage
like I performed with him, like a few months after
that ship went down. I don't know what season it was.
He was the second or third season of Comedians and
Cars that Bridgetts on, and um, yeah, he was just

(15:49):
talking about him and it was so funny. And I
love Seinfeld, I love the TV show, and I loved
the stand up back in the day. I don't love
it anymore. Um. I was actually got into a debate
with an older comic about it because I'm like, he's
not that funny anymore, and she was like, but he is,
and I'm like, no, no, no no, he's doing it the
same thing, exact same thing he did in the nineties,
and it's not funny anymore. And it really wasn't funny
to begin with, but at the time it was like,

(16:10):
quote unquote innovative. You know what's the deal with even
Bobcat move fast from like thank you exactly like yo
that she was killing though, but it was he had
a vision and I'm like and I've I've yeah, I've
been such a huge fanish yeah and so, And you're right,
though he has evolved. He's a different comic than he
was back then, but he's still very funny. But you're right,

(16:33):
if you're not involve as a comic, you're you're not
because I mean, imagine him doing that ship now. I
mean I would love it for the nostalgia, like if
you brought it back for like one show, like, oh,
that's interesting. But if he can if he was like
he never got past that, I think people be like,
I don't know. And he has a good sense of
humor about it too, because I like, I mentioned to
my mom because I've done multiple shows with him, and

(16:53):
I mentioned it to my mom and she like did
the voice and it was so funny, and I did
it in front of him on stage and he fucking
busted up laughing. It was just that thing of like,
I mean, that's how we associate him with and I'm
glad he doesn't like look down on it, you know,
right right right. I feel like Seinfeld's sense of humor
has like is kind of locked in where it was

(17:15):
like at the there's that like theory that like famous
people like stop evolving at the peak of their fame,
because that's just like the most adulation they've ever gotten.
And also they kind of get surrounded by people who
are are just telling them whatever they want to hear.
And I feel like, first Seinfeld, that's it's like Michael
Jordan's sense of fashion. It's just like, that's it's going

(17:38):
to be forever. He's not like on a program where
he's like, oh, like access is bad. He's like, why
don't you have a Mercedes. That's the only episode I
saw that show is with Zak Alfadakis and who was like,
your house sucks. I was like, yeah, I just thought

(18:00):
you would have lived in a nicer house. It's like, okay,
oh yeah, he's the one that evolved the least for sure.
All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be
right back to talk about some news. And we're back,

(18:29):
and Christie Nome is defending herself from nepotism accusations by
just like admitting she did nepotism kind of like, yeah, okay,
maybe I did that ship, but not what you think, right. So,
ye know, she's been in the news for last week.
That story came out the rumor that she was sleeping
with Korey Lewandowski from Trump World, like they were having

(18:52):
an affair, and then she's like, I love my husband whatever.
She's like, We've raised god fearing children together. I'm off
this like this is a bad rumor. And people were like, wow,
okay that by addressing it it seems a little bit
more guilty. But you, Christie, you gotta do you. And
now she's like, over the last you know, two weeks
or so, this nepotism thing has been getting louder and

(19:14):
louder and louder. And because here's the deal. You know,
her daughter just like about two years ago, she wanted
to be a real estate appraiser, but you know, like
the tests and certifications were just like so unfair that
the board denied her application and certification. And the state
says that they will, like in order to have your

(19:34):
certification denied, it's denied when quote an applicants work samples
don't meet minimum compliance with national standards. I mean, try
to imagine how bad her application must have been for
her to not get the affortable in the first place,
when her mom is Christie. First of all, the application

(19:55):
was in kraon. I don't know if you guys, it
must have been. It must have literally been in Graham.
He's like you someone else's application on top of this
with crayon, like it's not even your name. Miss oh okay.
So that's all these biases and things I got to
overcome now, uh And I mean, look, no shade too.
You know, real estate applications, it seems fairly straightforward to

(20:19):
get licensed. I know an appraise like this specific certification
might be a little more specific. I'm sure, however, it's
for a lot of people, but not the not her.
You wouldn't like this because the moment that they denied this,
the meeting that you're about to describe, was like said
in motion, and they had to have known that like

(20:40):
they had. There was only one option, So the certification denied.
Governor Mommy coming through and demand demanded a fucking Sopranos styles.
Sit down with Sherry Brand, who is the manager of
the appraiser certification program, her direct supervisor, and the state
Secretary of Labor and talk to your daughter. And my

(21:03):
daughter was there. I do like that she did. Let
me talk to your manager with and your direct supervisor.
I need to speak to everyone's manager, So who's your manager? Okay,
their manager as well, and who's yours too. I just
thought that she she did all that when she could
have just hired somebody to fill out the application. And

(21:23):
you know, like you know what you mean, like there's
so many ways you could have really played the system
if you wanted to, you know, just trying to do
it the right way more so, yeah, failing spectacularly and
then having her mother abused the office, the power of
her office to get this done. So oddly enough, a
couple of months after that meeting, boom, she's certified, baby

(21:43):
certified and is ready to start a praising a praise
the Lord. But it is not nepotism. And Christie Nome
did a vertical video apology, so you know she's fucking
serious about this. So this is Governor Nomes self tape.
It wasn't nepotism, but very listening, very closely, how she
just even lets this unfold, and I wanted to take

(22:06):
a second to set the record straight. I never once
asked for special treatment for Cassidy. She is my daughter
and I'm proud of her. I raised her to accomplish
things on her own. Just like my parents raised me.
Other appraisers went through the exact same process that Cassidy
did right here, And I'll be honest, my administration started
fixing that process and it was way too difficult. Appraisers

(22:30):
weren't getting certified, and celt Dakota is having to wait
much longer to buy a home than another stage. Okay,
that's it. I don't even care about the state goes. Yeah,
I didn't do nothing. However, we have the problem. Yeah,
which it was way too hard, way too difficult. I'm sorry,
did you is that a direct quoe from your daughter?

(22:51):
It's way too difficult. I don't diffucus application runs an
enfel out all. There is nothing, Harry, I need to
see you tomorrow. And your manager and her manager to

(23:11):
this is thank you think Yeah, I got a baby.
I know, honey, but I can't believe they made you read.
I wonder if they don't know the difference between nepotism
and insects. That's why she's like, it's not nepotism. That's like, lady,
do you even know? Because you know, it sounds like
she doesn't know what nepotism is. It's really what I mean,

(23:35):
especially when you then go on to say, however, we
did have to fix some problems over in that place
that made my daughter upset. Okay, she's like, y'all, nepotism
is disgusting, and that's why obviously I support abortions in
the case of rape and nepotism, right, And I also

(23:56):
love that you can see the ring light in her
eyes and the video that's my favorite, when you're just
like and the glasses, did you? Glasses? That's what I
call them, you know, it's an apology when someone who's
not normally wearing glasses puts the glasses on or around
their head to kind of I think it evokes that
old things like Batman when the jokers like you wouldn't
punch a guy with glasses, which funny. What a mess.

(24:20):
Let me just take a break from all this work
I'm doing with my glasses to put them up on
the top of my apologize. You guys are a distraction
from the She definitely took more time on hair and
makeup than she did on the apology. Yeah, isn't there,
But it's just this is why it's so bad. You

(24:42):
won't believe how long it takes to buy somebody to
buy a house in South Dakota because there's no appraisers.
I mean, really, what I'm trying to do? She goes
on to be like, I need to get more young
people involved in this to give them opportunities, because there
shouldn't be so many obstacles to opportunity. Please don't look
at my policies on education funding or things as it
relates to reservations. But anyway, that's what I believe us.

(25:05):
It's like the classic white feminism story, right, Like they
fucking want to adjust it for them and they think
that that's helping everybody. Well yeah, or use that very
narrow like lens to say, like the version of what
is being experienced now is actually an oppressive force that
we're trying to counteract. Versus my daughter is ill prepared.
I probably raised her as such where whenever she had

(25:26):
a problem, Mom would solve it without her having to
learn a lesson, which has created runaway momentum for this
baby adult who I've raised now, who now screams when
they don't get their appraisers. Oh my god, I just
thought of I've had My mom helped me on one
thing once when I was in high school. I think
we had to. We had to carve out the fucking
should the sphinx, like one of those from soap and yes,

(25:53):
I was trying to do it right and I was like, Mom,
can you help me? And she was like yeah, and
then she started doing it and I was like, okay,
let me and she was like, no, let me, and
she finished it. I didn't want her to. She just like,
you know what, you're gonna mess this up. And I
worked really hard on the back, so now I'm just
gonna do the whole face and I was like and
then yeah. I mean we saved it. And to this

(26:13):
day when I look at him, just like mmmm, I
will never ask that woman for help again. She just
looking snatched it out of my hands. I mean, it's
so weird when your parents are just like, let me
do this thing for you, and you're like, but this
just has to do with my school, like the opportunity, Yeah,
let me fail on my own. No, because I gotta
show you. Mom still kinta with an exact knife in

(26:34):
a bar of dial So funny, but we still have it.
Sometimes I'll see it and I'm just like, this doesn't
even mine. But she was like, you remember that when
you made that. I was like, I didn't make that.
You made that. Yeah, it's funny, funny, the same the
one it's so funny you said that. The one time
my mom ever helped me with the school project was
with it like an ancient Egypt diorama had to build

(26:57):
and I was trying to make my own pyramids out
of paper and on. My dumbass just didn't know how
to funk with geometry property to get it. And my
mom watched me struggle for hours and then until she
was just like, yo, like you can't embarrass me like this.
We bring this ship in here like here, like just
cut this paper like this and then just fold it
and then it'll be it'll look like a little pyramid.

(27:19):
And I'm like and I remember like being so self
conscious when I brought it like that. I was like,
the teacher's gonna know my mom did this. You know,
my mom did the fucking paper pyramid. And no it
wasn't like that, but I'll never shake that feeling either. Yeah,
it's so funny, right because I got an a on
it and I was like so upset for me to
like with you know, Asian household. It's very much like

(27:43):
sink or swim, motherfucker like and if you fail, I
hope you ready for the shame train because it's about
to make a stop at this house. You'd be better
hop on. But like, at the same time, also became
very much like able to rely on myself because I
was like, you know what, because I feel like every kid,
like when report time will come around, there was always
that one kid you learned like your mom fucking made that.

(28:06):
I've seen you. You can't even color in the fucking lines,
and now you did a whole ass diorama out of
a moving box that's like the scale. No. No, my
dad helped me with math homework in sixth grade once
and I still remember it because it ultimately ended with
him being like, your teacher is wrong about this. This

(28:26):
doesn't move, This doesn't make sense to me. And my
poor teacher, who was like such a hardass she didn't
give a funk ficture, was just like uh huh uh
huh yeah, okay, yeah, and you're a basketball coach, right, okay, yeah,
so why don't you just add up the score because
what you can only counted five right and do it

(28:47):
in ones, twos and threes, because see, isn't that funny
that we all have a story and we all are
like we very vividly remember and how it made us feel,
how we still feel about it, And like Christie Nehme's
daughter is probably like, well, so that one is sometimes
for somebody. Well, that's like because you know, I grew
up around a lot of kids who were the children
of celebrities, and they all have that similar thing, which
is money has solved all of their problems since they

(29:10):
can remember. And I mean there's some kids who you know,
were raised that'd be a little more self relife, but
many are like to the point where it's like you
move in, You're like, yo, can you set up the
WiFi or something like they don't even know how to
set up a WiFi account like that, even like you know,
you call the phone company and they're like huh, And
I'm like, funck, bro, did your mom always do this?
She's like they'll be like, yeah, my mom got it covered.

(29:32):
We're still on the parent plane now. Yeah. Yeah, alright.
Let's talk about the Pandora papers because it is slightly
related in the sense that the the US is one
of the key tax havens for a lot of this activity,
in particular the state of South Dakota. So she's working
over time making sure that uh, you know, they can

(29:55):
get some business from South Dakota, in particular sheltering sheltering
billi of dollars in wealth linked to people who have
been accused of serious financial crimes is a quote from
the reporting on the Pandora papers. But it's basically a
another leak like the Panama papers, except even bigger. There's

(30:15):
like more data in this leak than the Panama papers.
The journalists of the world are still kind of sifting
through it because it's massive. But basically, hundreds of world leaders, politicians, celebrities,
religious leaders have been using offshore accounts to shield assets
collectively worth trillions of dollars. The I really like ox

(30:35):
Fam statement on this because it's just like, I feel
like rat The way it's being reported, for the most
part is just like lifestyles of the rich and famous,
where like they got caught doing a bad a bad thing,
and it's like, yeah, yeah, naughty billionaires. But ox Fam
statement was, this is where I'm missing hospitals are, this

(30:56):
is where the pay packets it of all the extra
teachers and firefight is in public servants we need. Whenever
a politician or business leader claims there is quote no
money to pay for climate change and innovation, for more
and better jobs, for a fair post COVID recovery, for
more overseas aid they know where to look. Yeah, yeah,
they're just hiding all this money and all sorts of

(31:17):
illegal ways that I don't fully understand. I'm not the
person to explain it to you, but it's fucked. The
whole system is fucked, and it's so complex and legalistic
that it it gives people that response of like funk,
I don't even know where to start to try and
understand this ship and nothink. It makes you feel more

(31:39):
powerless and how the system is set up than when
you when these types of stories are exposed, right, and
then it's like, oh, what happened with the Panama papers?
Oh one of the journalists was like assassinated, That's what
came of it. And then you're like, so, what's what
the what? What I mean? That's what that'll put It
puts Biden in in an interesting place because this shows
that the US is the worst of the offenders, which

(32:02):
is why. And it's like so you can clean the
ship up because you're you had all this energy for
you know, people not paying their fair share. This looks
like a real good example of some ship you could
clean up. But will that happen? Oh God, I mean
it's it's it's hard to stay optimistic when you look
at how many people have just even in Congress or like, yeah, yeah,

(32:22):
the earth can burn because my corporate benefactors told me
that's my take today. Yeah. Do you think Biden is
looking forward to dying? I think you guys think he did.
I think we contain multitudes, and you know, there's probably
not a conscious part of his brain that like wakes
up and it's like, Dad, I wish I was dead.
But I bet they're like a whole bunch of parts

(32:45):
of his brain that are like, God, damn it, we
just get this over with. Come on, take me away. Lord.
What did you say, Joe, nothing, Jill. This is just
one of those stories that I think we talked about
this before, where it's like, this is why it's important
to just focus on community, your community and improving your community,
because the fucking the sense of like helping as an

(33:07):
individual in the global spectrum of things, it's like you're not.
These people are so corrupt and it's so much bigger
than we can even wrap our heads around. It's like
just fucking focus on your family and your community and
you fucking get through this life. You know. Yeah, I
do have the idea that like American exceptionalism, we're like, yeah,

(33:28):
they must be hiding their money and like offshore accounts,
and it's like, yeah, South Dakota, if that's so, consider
super falls. South Dakota is bro One of the politicians,
the head of state for the Czech Republic, who is
has an election coming up, made the statement that he

(33:51):
knew this was going to happen just to swing his election,
which is like amazingly self centered that he thinks that
this thing with like global aplication and was was all
designed to swing the check election. But his statement on
it was I never did anything illegal or wrong, which
half of that is true. The illegality is completely independent

(34:13):
of the wrongdoing, and that's sort of the problem. The
legal system is set up in a horribly corrupt way.
I do want to like kind of talk about the
other side of that coin, though, because like so that
story is about like really boring ship that's like hard
to wrap your mind around where that people are using
to do illegal ship and hoard money and deprive people

(34:37):
of of money. But there's a great news story about
the world's oldest rainforest being handed back to its indigenous owners.
It's in Queensland, Australia, at a ceremony last Wednesday, the
Eastern Cuckoo eulogy. People on fucking that up. I'm sure

(34:57):
took formal ownership of of the land, and it's like
I just digging into it a little bit. It was
like a decade's lung process with the federal government, like
you know, they did something to protect the land back
in nine but then like to actually give it back
to the people took like thirty three years of negotiations

(35:20):
and like bureaucratic just sort of legwork, And I just
feel like it's the sort of thing that it's hard
to imagine like someone reporting on this or like this
story going viral in America since it's like a victory
for people who were not immediately familiar with and that's

(35:41):
like done by bureaucrats basically. But our world, our culture
is just so like anti bureaucrat, like from like books
that we read in high school. They were like Night
four and you know, Brave New World and like those
sort of post apocalyptic books that are like yeah, that

(36:03):
are just like or cough cut, Like everything is just
like being a nameless bureaucrat is like hell, but it's like,
well you can also like just work and grind on
behalf of like really good cause. And I don't know that.
I feel like there's not a single place in our
culture where like that is glorified other than like the

(36:24):
occasional good news story. You don't want to get too
much momentum of you know, colonizers giving ship back, right,
that's uh, that's a dangerous game for a lot of governments.
They're like, oh, whoa, whoa what they do? No, no, no,
that's a one off. I know. I was gonna ask
you guys think that this is gonna happen more frequently
or just every whatever twenty fifty years or some sh
it like, I don't know. I mean, I think the

(36:46):
difference is the one benefit is people are so interested
in like these kinds of power dynamics. I don't know
if it's it's definitely not like a tipping point, but
more and more people understand like what is right and wrong,
or or you know how oppression works, or how like,
you know, even being very underhanded with like bureaucratic paperwork

(37:07):
to not you know, give land back. I don't know.
I just see just increased awareness and a deep down.
I hope with increased awareness comes some kind of tangible change,
but it definitely takes time. And I think to your point,
that's why it's good to focus on things like locally,
because you have a lot more when you know your

(37:28):
communities and stuff like that, you know the people there,
you kind of understand how power moves a little bit
differently than trying to scream outside of Capitol Hill and
being like, did you to do something? Yeah, well you
don't want to do another insurrection. The person's kind of whack.
I'm not I'm not gonna lie there. Nobody's smoking weed.
I was like, what the fuck? Listen, Nope, it's not

(37:50):
a party. All right, let's take a quick break and
we'll be right back, and we're back. And a New
York Times columnists was pointing out that a lot of

(38:11):
the sort of news leaks, a lot of the Wall
Street journals reporting with these like Facebook leaks from behind
the scenes of Facebook is being interpreted as like Facebook
is this like massive, powerful company that's unstoppable, and like
the thing we need to do is break it apart,
and the the columnists like, yeah, that's we definitely need
to like break it apart. But also like what we're

(38:33):
seeing is kind of more dangerous than them being this massive,
like unstoppable juggernaut. It's actually like a company that is
in trouble and that like recognizes its weakness and like
is acting from a place of desperation. Like a lot
a lot of the leak reports are about them being
like yeah, no, like just the ship that we know,

(38:55):
like about Facebook that like it's for old people and
like young people aren't really fucking with it and becoming
toxic for like younger people, yeah, like teen girls and
things like that, and they don't give a funk. They're
looking at like yeah, yeah, that's happening. But before you
want me to do them in this engagement though, but
they like do recognize it. Like that that's being brought

(39:16):
up in meetings is like Okay, there's all this ship
that like kids hate about this were toxic. We have
like these things that go viral that are like really
bad for people. You know, we've helped spread genocides in
other countries, like these are these are bad stories that
are like hurting our ability to like draw young people.
But then everything like to a cellular level, like everything

(39:39):
that they do is all about generating engagement, and it's
just they can't change how people think of their platform
because they it was it's been fucked up for so long.
So they did this algorithm that was covered at the
time of the mainstream media because the main instream media

(40:01):
will just repeat anything that a massive tech company or
the police tell them. But it was like they're doing
this push to change the state of the algorithm to
be like more positive. What they actually did was like
changed it to increase engagement, and that ended up just

(40:22):
meaning that they increased the like posts that made people angry. Yeah,
the the this whistleblower, Francis Hogan, who is the person
who shared all those documents with the Wall Street Journal.
They were on sixty minutes and I'll just play this
clip of her describing just very bluntantly how like how

(40:44):
ship was working on Facebook. And then you really understand like, oh,
this is they don't give a fuck and even no
matter what the cost Halgan told us the route of
Facebook's problem is in a change that it made in
to its algorithms, the programming that decides what you see
on your Facebook news feed. So you know, you have

(41:06):
your phone, you might see only a hundred pieces of
content if you sit and scroll off for you know,
five minutes. But Facebook has thousands of options that could
show you. The algorithm picks from those options based on
the kind of content you've engaged with the most in
the past. And one of the consequences of how Facebook

(41:26):
is picking out that content today is it is optimizing
for content that gets engagement a reaction, but its own
research is showing the content that is hateful, that is divisive,
that is polarizing. It's easier to inspire people to anger
than it is to other emotions. Misinformation, angry content is

(41:48):
enticing to people and keeps them on the platform. Yes,
Facebook has realized that if they change the algorithm to
be safer, people will spend less time on the site,
they'll click on less ads, they'll make less money. M Yeah,
and it's just like this woman is just so fucking

(42:10):
steely with her delivery on it, and you're like, and
you just look at all of the things that we're
seeing being compounded by the way Facebook gives people information
and you're like, yeah, you heard, you saw that. The
reason she decided to whistle blow the funk out of
this ship is because she lost her friend to conspiracy
theories online. I mean, that's so fucking sad. And it's

(42:33):
also that thing of like I also hate that people
need to have like lose something in order to feel
like they need to do something good, you know, like
that you know, double edged sword there. But I am
glad she's doing it, uh and did it. But it's
one of those things where it's like, fucking oh man
is shi It is like so deep and dark and
worse than I think we all can even rip her
hands around some and I think I think everybody knows

(42:55):
someone that's just gone down the rabbit hole and it's like, hey,
see you later, and you're like, you can't believe what
has occurred, but then you realize. But you also there
was like you can there are people you can watch, like, oh, yeah,
the posts were getting like they were sort of gaining
speed the last couple of years in the way they
would post on Instagram or Facebook, and yeah, it's it's

(43:18):
it's like it's such a pervasive issue that again, like
what are they going to legislate finally or what do
they do? Just let this thing thrash its way into
total chaos as on the way now and YouTube is
also getting rid of the supposed vaccine misinformation to write
there taking it down and yeah they are, but yeah, yeah,

(43:38):
they said like of like the twelve biggest offenders, I know,
like a few days after that announcement, like two of
them were still up. But I think it seems like
on some level they want to do something about it.
But it's hard for me to have to think that
they're having a reckoning with like, well, I guess it
just means we're gonna have to make less money folks. Right,
that's like that actually being brought up in since seriousness.

(44:00):
I doubted. No, No, that's never you know, could you
imagine like a clip of that in a board like
table board, I mean, like, I mean the alternative is
we have to do the right thing and just you know,
just look at more engagement and begin to tell our
ad partners that. Like. But it's sad too because sometimes
when I talk to my friends about things that they
say yes to or things that they're wanting to say

(44:21):
yes to. In the industry, I will straight up be
like how much money do you need? Like what what
are you really getting out of this project or this
thing that you're doing. And sometimes people like just hearing
that fox with their head and it's really interesting that
it's like it's no wonder it's gotten to this point
because if you can't even like your individual like your

(44:42):
friends people in your life have a problem with that concept,
it's like, yeah, no fucking wonder. Everybody so fucking corrupt
because like money is truly fucking with people's heads and
and uh yeah, fucking I don't know people, and it's
like it's like the same thing with you know, what
you're being what's being reflected to you from society is
get yours because there's not a lot out there, so

(45:04):
you better get yours because you don't want to be
one of these other motherfucker's that don't got it. And
until I think we're there's some kind of redistribution of
values where people are like now like it's not we
have to get off to get yours mindset, and it's
like get ours type ship, like for everybody to be
able to say that there is enough that we're not

(45:24):
dealing with such finite things, that there is a way
to support people. And I think many people have a
rigid idea of like, well, if that happens, that means
I'll never go on vacations, or like well, yeah, that's fine,
you know you you're you're a normal working person, like
and everyone should have the flexibility to do that. But
I think there's just a really good messaging machine on
the other side, which is having people fear for what

(45:46):
it means to create more equity for people, which is
like that means they're gonna take your ship, when really
we're trying to come for the people from the Pandora
paper ship, right exactly exactly. It's also interesting when I
think about how like, like all these news stories are connected,
not connected, right, because it's like I think about how
like thank god those indigenous people got their land back,
and then you think about like influencers online now they're

(46:09):
kind of exploiting they like their original traditions, like holistic
traditions that indigenous people created and you know, like their
ancestors took their land and now these influencers are exploiting
these indigenous traditions as like they're fucking cool last thing
that they're selling online and they're making money off of

(46:30):
their profiting and I don't know, it's just like this
weird cycle that like as we went through these stories,
I'm like I saw the cycle in my head and
I'm like, this is so weird how it's all connected
and it's not connected, and how everything just comes back
to money and it's just like the phases of like
being colonized. The land will go first, and then the
people and then the culture, and it's like, yeah, we'll

(46:51):
just get as much as we can out of this thing. Yeah.
This column points out that you shouldn't be any less
worried about Facebook because they're kind of in a desperate place,
because you know, history has shown that companies that like
MySpace they specifically mentioned like on the way down, they
do a lot of damage. They you know, sell user

(47:13):
data to advertising firms. They funk with your online information
security and a good another good example of like how Facebook,
you know, the sort of bind that they put themselves
in is like they so there are there's a problem
on Instagram with people being sold products that are unhealthy

(47:37):
that like promote eating disorders. And the way that they
tried to tried it in quotes to combat that is
just by banning like a couple obvious hashtags, like they're like,
well that no more. And then obviously the companies just
create new hashtags and like those bow has gone Okay, okay,

(48:03):
how about hashtag snatched up? You know, let's start using
like yeah, yeah, And I think that's what that that's
always their problem is they it's they're just plugging these
holes for another leak to just pop up on the
other place, because they're not just removing the boat from
the body of water to fix it. It's like, no, no,
I think we can. We can keep just going if
we're just doing it like in this ad hoc way.

(48:24):
And it's yeah yeah, because I just think, like you said,
with my Space going down, remember what Tom Tom sold
it to Fox right, Yeah, Tom sold just sold it
to whatever company first. Yeah, yeah, Intermix, which sold it
to Fox right. So then what happens if Mark Suckerberg
decides the cash out on Facebook. That's when I think

(48:45):
it would go truly in another direction, because someone goes, yo,
if I can just get my fucking hands on Facebook,
like I'll turn this ship all the way up. Yeah,
and he'll be like, well, I already have my islands,
so yeah, all right, we do have to get to
the Anna musical. That's very important. Yeah, what a horrible
newsday La came on for this one. Guys, Um, you're

(49:13):
gonna like this one though, because this is so bad
it's good. So there's a lot of Diana content, a
lot of Diana tent coming out these days. There's The Crown,
the upcoming movie Spencer, where Diana is played by Christen Stewart,
and there's yet another fictionalized telling of the life of
Princess Diana that just hit Netflix. It is a lavish

(49:36):
Broadway musical recounting like her life through cringe e pop
rock songs and elaborate dance numbers. Yeah. I remember we
first talked about it, like when this came on the radar,
and we're like, oh boy, this sounds like a mistake,
but we're blessed because these people actually recorded themselves performing
this last summer and it's on Netflix now, and what

(50:00):
a what a sight for sore eyes. I wasn't aware
of this whole thing, and until I think yesterday is
that there's a clip going around of two friends watching
it and they're trying to figure out how the woman,
the woman playing Diana, she's singing to whoever the fuck
and then steps into a stand up dress, a dress

(50:21):
at standing and so there's an extra in the dress
and that person steps out and she like walks around
steps in. It's like shot perfectly so you can't tell.
But they're dissecting it because they're like, this makes no sense.
She's like not moving, she's just sitting there trying to
sing because she stepped into the dress. That's the only
thing I know about this at all, kind of like
a paper doll. Yeah, it's very weird and people it's

(50:42):
like going viral and that was the only thing I
know about this. And it looks cookie. I mean, that
might be the best thing, because what you're sounding saying
sounds like a good bit of like stage direction that
you're like, how they fucking pull that off? Because the
musical itself, Yeah, it's getting like just kill and and
reviews based on like some of the lyrics. At one point,

(51:04):
Prince Charles sings, how about for us start don't act
like a tart? Diana, what ya, which she probably said
to her right that's not might not have rhymed. But
when Prince William is born, he sings, darling, I'm holding
our son, so let me say jolly well done. It's

(51:26):
just really like, think these writers to creative prison. What
are you doing it. There's a scene right early on
where she's just like entering like the phase of courting
Prince Charles, and like there's like this paparazzi scene, this
paparazzi dance number, like they're all dressed like newsies and stuff,
and it's just like, oh my god, Like you know,

(51:47):
the whole sort of undertone, like you know, the thrust
of it is sort of like these people are bad,
but also like y'all are ingesting it, so who's really bad?
Kind of a vibe. And there's one lyric where this
they're saying, and of course they say better than againness,
better than a whank, We take the pictures and this
money in the bank, Oh my god, really better than

(52:10):
beer or jerking off. That's part of the And then
you're like, this is this has gone completely off the rails.
I mean, it is showing that they're sick, because I
so when they when she dies, they are they like
tap dancing on her, Like how does that work? They're
just like taking her lifeless body and like posing it
to do it. You know, I didn't even get that
far because like, once I was seeing this, I was like,

(52:31):
this is so bad. You know, it's just like I
don't know how you do a musical treatment of something
that's like everyone else is like, this is actually like
pretty tragic if you really look at it closely, And
a lot of people only saw like the glitzy parts
without understanding how tortured these be poor. Do you ever
you ever like turned something off in the middle of
it or at the beginning of it just to make

(52:52):
a point, because they're like, I should finish this for work,
but I'm going to turn this off to send a
message to these streaming. Yeah, sometimes I'll rage quit, like
performative rage quit, you know, but sometimes I just ran
anot of time. So you're saying you were going to
finish it. Honestly, it's so bad. The dancing. It looks

(53:15):
like the kind of ship like it looks like if
a flash mob broke out on a cruise ship and
you're like, these motherfucker's got down. That's like a cruise
ship during during a storm and they're ye during like
a COVID, Like you're on a COVID boat and they decided, hey,
let's do it. Let's do a flash mob musical real
quick for the stranded passengers, Like, yeah, you know someone

(53:36):
who just survived COVID. I don't find that comment funny
at all. Apologies, I don't need to say to get
it make it that vivid, But I hope that really
took me there, you know. Yeah, it's uh, it's getting
Some of the reviews are pretty like they said. Chicago
Tribune said that the r and streaming is optional the

(53:58):
Evening Standard. It said, it's like being bludgeoned over the
head by a commemorative crockery set. That's funny. That's pretty good.
I like that. And at one point there where I'm
Camilla with the Thrilla in Manila, So anytime you feel
bad about your own freestyling, you know, you can always
remember that somebody actually wrote that ship down. Like yeah,

(54:23):
when it comes to sex, someone in Camilla and he's
called me by the condo piller. Okay, I'm just thinking
that re jackass Dana and Dana r ip. But yeah,
I don't know if you could ever do something that

(54:44):
is serious and add the level of camp that a
musical brings, and then it completely not have any meaning anymore. Yeah,
there's a musical number sung by the Queen in which
she's sandwiched by two beds, one in which Diana is
having an affair with James hugh It and the other
where Charles is fucking Camilla. Oh my god, it's just

(55:06):
I'm just leaking at screen cups. I have not watched this,
but their strategy is apparently to like let people see
this and then they will be like, I've got to
see it in person because it doesn't make sense, Like, yeah,
the only Broadway musicals that they have like released on

(55:26):
like a streaming network are like ones that are like
a lot of people have seen and they've already succeeded.
This is the first time that they were like, let's
put this out. Usually you secure your streaming bag after
your Broadway bag. If you're a Broadway production, you you'd
imagine you'd want to do it in that sequence. But
shout out to Netflix. I don't. I don't know how.

(55:47):
I was just thinking like how this whole thing the
whole time I kept watching, like I want to feel
like you can make a musical about anything and then
it works. But it's like the way they just focus
on all these very like just super moments, and if
there is something serious, it's like a throwaway line, like
you know in a lyric. You're like, that's not honoring them.
It's like doing like a Harriet Tubman musical. But it's

(56:10):
like you map it over like Starlight Express, because you
just focus on the railroad part, you know what I mean.
Like he's like, come on, don't do that. Just don't
even bother, Like you don't have to go there. You
don't have to go there. You can tell you do
maybe with theatrically, but not working on the right I
mean honestly, yeah, you're like, I don't know about this one,

(56:32):
but that's what it's at times. That's what I kind
of felt with this when I'm like, I just feels
like I do feel like I kind of have to
watch this in person. Now. I think I'm gonna plan Jack,
you are a better dancer than the guy playing Charles.
You said I'm not a great dance I know, but
I'm saying, you know, because this guy they say he's good,

(56:53):
and I've seen you. I've seen you popping lock and
oh you should see him. You look we call Boogaloo do. Yeah,
yeah that's his that's his street, that's his buskin name.
But yeah, the there's a scene where he's like trying
to like like send like a wave through his arms

(57:14):
and ship and it looks like he broke both his
arms because they're so rigid, and he's just like damn.
So it's like offensive to people who dance. I need
to watch squid Game. I like, I'm enjoying watching squid Game,
and yet I think I'm gonna have to watch this
before I watch it more squid Game. Just doost you know, yeah,

(57:35):
watch it with your children, just to feel good to him. Yeah.
When they're saying stuff like better than a guinness, better
than a wank, and your kids are like what are those?
You're like, I don't know why, you know, I'm gonna
ask any questions. We were like, oh, this is mesmerizing.
I'm just a dumb kid like that. They do find
the one like word that I don't want them to
listen to and be like, what does that mean? Did

(57:57):
you say gun? No? He said dumb gum there blow
your head off with this. Gum. It's really good. Gum.
You think there's um fucking Megan Merkels ship like got
everybody all excited to exploit the royal family again, Is
that what's going on here? I think the Crown did it,
The Mega Markels ship did it. But yeah, the Crown

(58:19):
I think is largely show right, just want to m
and stuff. Yeah, And I feel like they left like
the Diana part of the Crown is not like as
the strongest part of the show, I feel like, and
so people are like hungry for some for the Grana stuff. Yeah.

(58:40):
It also feels like so long ago that people can
exploit it again. Yeah. Yeah, which is funny because I
think the director of this also he like won an
award for directing a nine eleven Broadway. Oh my god,
are you serious? Yeah? Wait really yeah, the wonder no One.
I was reading the Roger Ebert dot com review because

(59:03):
I'm like, what is Roger Ebert dot com gotta say?
If they gave that ship one and a half stars
and then they said blah blah blah blah blah, it's
the creative hands being the creative hands of Christopher Ashley,
director of the Stage production and this film performance actually
is also a Tony Award winner for his staging of
the September eleventh musical Come from Away. Mm hmm, So

(59:24):
they didn't know that. Yeah, they wanted Tony for the
people who wrote the lyrics. I want a Tony for Memphis,
which I was not familiar with. But oh, the nine
eleven thing is about people who are stranded in Newfoundland
because of all the flights being canceled. Because so it
wasn't like so nine eleven, I'm dying on the building.

(59:48):
I'm going to jumpall you, honey if I never speak
to you again, hold on, I must insert my credit
card for two more minutes, and you're like this. That
was actually really pretty Uh, where can people find you?
And you can find me at the North Bar in
Chicago this Saturday, October nine. If you guys are Chicago

(01:00:10):
or the areas, please come out and see me as
some fun shows. Um, I'll probably be sitting because I'm
still recovering from fucking COVID. Doing anything exhausted me. So
that's where my lack of energy came today. But you
know what it is, what it is, y'all. Otherwise, on
that Marcela comedy on all social media platforms. Um, I
have my album The Woke Willie that it's still so
fucking funny. And The scroll Down with Nicole Thurman is

(01:00:33):
a podcast where we we do do breakdowns of the week,
not like this. We don't do any boring news stories.
So if you love the news, don't listen to it.
If you love to hear us shooting on pop culture,
we do that so and do it very well. Thank you.
And is there a tweet or some other work of
social media? Oh my god, oh some other social media works.

(01:00:54):
That's an interesting one. There is a young woman, she
Fhon Taylor. She says, you make one valid point to
your home girl, and it's just a screenshot of her
friend going, who side you on? And I found that
so funny because it's so true when you do that
with your home girls, or just like make a point
that has nothing to do with are we not nothing
to do with anything? But it's not. You're just trying
to like speak logically, you know, diplomatically, and they're just like, bitch,

(01:01:18):
oh now you his friend? Now? Okay, yeah, okay, okay.
I'm like, I don't know, I'm reasonable, Yeah, I don't know.
You're kind of being a bit right now, do you
were thinking about I needed you to do my homegirl?
Who would be unreasonable with me? No question? Asked? Oh yeah,
my bad Jack. Where can people find you? Oh my god,

(01:01:39):
thank you so much for asking. We usually do myles first. Yeah, yeah,
I'm Jack underscorel Brian on Twitter some tweets that I've
been enjoying. Let's see Village of the Damned tweeted, girlfriend,
I'm seeing someone behind your back me believes in ghosts?
Is it my grandpa? Dylan? Dylan tweeted Francis guy who

(01:02:04):
caused it? Hey, I'm staying out of this. And then
we have multiple I don't even know you could do multiple.
I know. I'm just good for you and Vida who
know tweeted If she's your girl, then why does her
late motif appear? And part of my battle team which

(01:02:26):
I enjoyed? You're a dork, Jack, I just remembered a
couple more days. I'm in Fort Collins, Colorado, Colorado. I

for twenty day Fiance was Sophia Alexander. We're just getting
high talking about ninety day Fiance. The Lord's work a
tweet I like it from at all Holly, who tweeted
library patron of the week. The fellow who came in
wandered around for a good while, then asked pleasantly, what

(01:03:08):
is this place? Oh gosh. We talked about it last week,
like how just unthinkable libraries would be like if if
they hadn't already existed, like in our modern world, if
someone was like, all right, I'm gonna make a like
place that has all the books and like for free,
people would be like, dude, they'd say it's critical race

(01:03:30):
theory or something, you know what I mean. We like,
like four of us in the family used to work
at a library. But my mom was reminding me of
this story where um, there there are people steal books
from the library, and I guess one of the ladies
that worked there was like we should be happy that
they want to steal books and the cutest thing I've
ever they want to read, though, I guess that's true.

(01:03:55):
They're like, no, they're they're just roman joints out of
the blanket notes in the back of those bibles. There's like, well, guys,
thanks for joining me here on the Daily Guys, where

what song are we riding out on today? Hey, We're
gonna ride out on this track south by West from
unglued It's a bit of drumming bass, you know, because

(01:04:39):
I've got Diana got me in that UK massive mood
and this is the track I've been blasting just on
my bicycle from the drumming bass bike board and it's
just got a great like sort of jazz sample but
flips into a nice drumming bass track. I feel like
I'm looking watching an old like Infinity car commercial from
the nineties, when like that used to be the theme
of all commercials. So check this out. It's easy listening

(01:05:01):
