how how are you doing?
Speaker 4 (05:01):
I'm doing so so well and not in the fake
podcast way really bad, then really good. I didn't even
intend to talk about this, but I'll plug a thing
because it came out Monday. I do a series called
Tales from the Pit, where I usually interview people about
mental health challenges. We flipped It and Sore and Bowie,
(05:22):
our dear friend Sore and Bowie, hosted and interviewed me
about I recently went through what's called an intensive outpatient program,
which used to be called the Looney Bit, and learned
a bunch of new skills that now I think like
there is a honeymoon period and I have reasonable expectations,
(05:42):
but I'm still in the glow of like I feel
like a mind jedi, Like life is just a state
of mind, and I'm great. Ever since I went to
to this program. I'm great.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Yeah, yeah, that's great to hear. Man, that's awesome. Yeah,
iop I did one of those.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Yeah you know me, Yeah, oh yeah, I did.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
One of those. Yeah, back when I was stopping drinking.
Oh yeah yeah, And it was it was very beneficial.
I took two weeks off from Cracked, and yeah it was.
It was hard to make that initial commitment, but it was. Yeah.
I learned a lot of life skills and one of
the best things I ever did for myself, and.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
They actually worked. I went in really skeptical, like, my
pain is so deep and unique, it won't work on me. Yes,
and other guys were like, no, it will if you
give it the time. I'm at the end of the process.
It totally worked. And I thought it wouldn't work. And
now I'm the guy at the end going you'd think
it wouldn't work.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
But right, get some other skeptical young in aka could
be somebody in their like fifties but coming in all
skeptical and ship. Yeah. Anyways, awesome man, We're going to
get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First,
we're going to tell our listeners a couple of the
things we're talking about We're going to talk about some
(06:57):
GOP investigations that I guess they've maybe been looking looking
forward to on on Fox. I was not aware of them,
but they're actually starting to bear fruit.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Oh yeah, yeah, baby, I mean we're fucked, and by
where I mean the Joe Brandon crime syndicate is fucked.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
I actually didn't see this story until just now, so
I'm excited to see what they thought, what they've dug
up for us. And then Rudy Giuliani is she's being
sued for sexual assault, and just all sorts of grewsome details,
but also you know, enlightening details about how he was
thinking about his role within the Trump administration, such as
(07:39):
admitting to selling pardons for two million dollars on tape.
On Wax, we'll talk about Paris, which is as recently
as like a decade ago, not a very bike friendly city,
even though you know, people riding a bike with a
baguette in a bag is one of the international symbol
(08:00):
of Paris. But yeah, it was actually a very polluted,
a car choked city fairly recently and is now doing great.
They've cut their emissions by twenty percent. They've made their
city way more livable one of those one of those
happy stories that I like to check in with her.
(08:20):
I want that, I want that. How do I get
to there?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (08:25):
But before we get to any of it, Michael, we
do like to ask our guests, what is something from
your search history?
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Yeah? I had to dig back a little bit, but
I discovered something, and then I scared myself by going
what was that and reclicking it. It's the words our
Prisoner fall Out. And there's this old sixties show that
only ran for one season and was beloved in that time,
like how some people loved Firefly as it was, you know,
(08:56):
dying called the Prisoner. I mainly knew it from Simpson's references,
like the island is guarded by a giant plastic ball
that smothers you. I knew that already.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Oh bo, I remember that from like, yeah, the pretty
episode where Homer goes on the island.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Yeah, when he's mister X journalist and yeah, So anyway,
that is the premise. I think it's magooin So anyway,
the premise is just that a guy's trapped on a
wacky island. It's super surreal and trippy, and he's trying
to escape and a primordial terror of mind that still
shakes me to my core. Was one night I was
(09:33):
really young and stayed up way too late and was
watching random tapes and I remember it was a high
eight tape. My dad had a high eight player. This
is like a thing that's not VCR, that's not like
so obsolete. People have probably not heard of it.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
It's not even Betamax.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Yeah, like we'd watch Rocketdood'll do on High eight and stuff.
So he had this high eight tape. There was a
documentary about great sci fi shows and it showed the
last episode of The pri and the last episode of
The Prisoner. Just this out of context scene is this
guy going I will not be stamped, spindled or mutilated.
I I I I I I I I And then
(10:12):
like his face rips off and he's this guerrilla monster.
And I'm like seven years old, and I like ship
my pants round out of the room. And I was
fascinated with that scene forever, and I've been trying to
find it forever and I finally figured out it's the
final scene of The Prisoner.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
But I was always just like, what's that III monkey man?
Right about? Well? Is that Charles Yeah, you finally unlocked it.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Wow. We always talk about the impending conflict that we're
all going to die in as World War III on
the daily. All Right, I can't wait a great joke.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Wait, howcome it was a how come it's like a
monkey bio weapon for what's going on? Like without a
huge reak.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
You'll understand how trippy and phoned in sixties TV was
so then in that I was about in the context
as stupid as hell. So then he rips off the
monkey face and it's his own, it's himself, and this
is the mysterious evil guy that they've been milking the
whole series. Who's it going to be? It's him? And
he just starts laughing and laughing, and our guy teams
(11:19):
up with a little person, Butler kills everyone with machine
guns and like gets out, and that's then. I don't
fully understand the context, but I don't think it would
make it better if I did.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Man, you didn't stick around for the important payoffs. Everyone
with machine guns help you so much?
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Kid? Yeah, thank god he's dead.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
I love a good Scooby Doo mask reveal and then
second mask, you're just covering under two layers of masks,
and that they went through the trouble of just building
a mask that would go on top of a mask
that was a perfect replica of their own face that
they had been wearing against.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
The mission impossible Latex.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Then oh wait, so it reverted back to his original.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Face, right?
Speaker 4 (12:10):
And then the implication I think is who knows who
that is? Like, it's open to interpretation. It might not
be you know, they don't dig into it.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
You're like, now I'm playing it's me.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
He beats them to death of a fire. Exting was
sure if I recall, Okay.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Now I need to wats just last episode out of context? O, man,
what is something you think is overrated?
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Michael?
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Right now, all the shows that everyone loves come on.
I don't need to rail too hard about it. But
I haven't gotten to in public yet. But I was
watching Succession like everyone and a few episodes ago, even
though it's so close to the end, I just am
so bored enough by it that I'm like, yeah, but
(12:55):
it's literally not worth my time. And I just walked away.
And there's been a couple like that, and I'm worried
that I'm I'm falling out of touch. As they say,
but I can't stand shows without dynamics. And it's like
every scene is it's like always Sonny in Philadelphia without jokes.
And I know people who said Arrested Development without jokes,
but Arrested Development was structurally complex. Succession is like I
(13:17):
wonder if they'll fuck them over at the end of
the scene. I wonder if they have the fairy's intent.
I wonder if they're gonna end up yelling at each
other saying something horrible they can't take back. I think
I had the same thing with Game of Thrones. You
gotta have a lot of dynamics for me. Yeah, I
forget I should have written more than all the shows
everyone loves, because there was another one that I had
(13:39):
a whole cracked style thesis about. But you know what,
you're not my boss anymore. I don't have to do
that to refu content.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
Dad.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Is it Barry? I like Barry? I know, I like
you would like Barry. Actually, yeah, and I like that.
I don't know if it was fully Oh, Ted Lasso,
that's the one. Ted Lasso sucks. I always out it has.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
I think it's interesting that Barry went from season one
has the highest proportion of jokes to ship is real
and then it's like smoothly Season two is more real, real,
real real. I'm pretty sure Bill Hayter is trying to
hop permanently too. I'm gonna direct like real ship now.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Yeah. It feels like this is I can't wait for him,
and this is the first time I've seen that transition
somebody going from like TV and like directing so many
TV episodes so well that I'm now just and I
think a lot of people are now like eagerly awaiting
what his first film will be.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Yeah, Wifie count Jordan Peel. But it was directing sketches.
It's not real as as I will now.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Yeah, like watch it like from Key and Peel. I
wasn't then waiting for ye.
Speaker 6 (14:54):
Whoa, You're like, yeah, yeah, now I I will allow
you to talk about succession but ted laugh though, I
mean that is dramatallurgically everything that happens on that is
necessary to quote Jeremy Strong.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
Sure, show's perfect, and there's got to be some kind
of Uh. I'm just nostalgic goggles only because I really
like Bill Lawrence, the show runner. I've looked up to
him for a long time. I really like Scrubs, even
though there's like, I mean, as you get older and older,
he's not immune to highly problematic shit if you go
back and watch Scrubs. But I still love a lot
(15:31):
of the techniques. A lot of modern sitcoms use the
techniques he developed in Scrubs. And I don't know, maybe
I'm just a sucker, but I watched Ted Lasso and
I'm like, man, if this was a Scrubs, I'd be
laughing out loud instead of just going these people are nice.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
This is nice. It's nice because everyone's so nice. Yeah,
that's why.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Hey, maybe you need that energy or power to you.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yeah, I'm allergic to it. I just can't when I
see it, I'm like, oh, it's too nice for me.
Like I'm a lost cause don't like, don't cry for
me because I'm already dead and dead lass, I ain't
breaking through. What is something you think is underrated?
Speaker 4 (16:12):
I forget what the hell I had. But as soon
as you did know wedding bars, a wedding planning, fuck that, Yeah,
my weddings and swill days. Who gives a shit?
Speaker 7 (16:21):
Flow by, more importantly, the flowbots, bro, there's so easy
highly slept on They're like a rap version of rage
against the machine ethos wise, like all they rap about
is have capitalisms bullshit.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
The farther we go forward in time, the more everything
they say rings true, Like and Braiden Rise, there's a
war going on for your mind. Same thing, Good Soldier.
So many great songs, really eloquent lyrics, great flow, like
rappers with really melodic flow, and like the roots are like,
I mean, I always love live band with live drums
(17:01):
doing rap with like a horn section. You don't get
that a lot, right. The flowbots are great?
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Wow, there we go. I mean, I don't think you
even needed to mention that day a great flow after
people heard me my AKA but yeah yeah, and.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
The robots, what do you think?
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (17:18):
So, I mean, but your wedding, Just to touch on that,
as somebody who was married in the last year, you're
you feel good, you're nervous. Yeah yeah, yeah, let it listen,
let it let the camera catch that. But I know
the feeling when you're just like less than two weeks
out and all your for me. All I thought about
was like, how is this event going to go down?
(17:38):
Not so much of like the marriage itself, but the
actual wedding and the shit gonna be where it needs
to be. Are people gonna like what they? And I
did my head and until somebody, like a family member
was like, was like, you look fucking tense as fuck.
What you need to do is act like a guest.
Don't act like a fucking host at your wedding. And
that was the best advice I've received in the lead
up of to be able to, like on the day,
(18:01):
just put everything else out of mind and just switch
to being like, I'm a guess at this wonderful thing.
But are you Are you close to feeling like that
or is it still kind of.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
Like, oh yeah, I feel that entitlement. That's great advice
that I have gotten and taken to heart because I
feel like we did our work in the prep and
that we're both workaholics, so we took X. We went
extra extra, so like the gifts for the bridal parties
are pretty specific and elaborate and will be like surprising
(18:30):
delights that took a lot of extra work. I know,
no one attending. I think most people attending will not
hear this. No, some will, Oh well, we shot a
full like cracked caliber sketch to unveil at the wedding.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
We start in with.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
Pretty ambitious special effects and a full orchestral score and shit,
and had a crew out there two days of shooting
and some other surprises. So like, we went hard and
there's costume changes involved, and uh, you know, some of
the actors you helped bring up Jack are involved in
(19:08):
some performance pieces happening through housing. So we're doing a
whole day of bullshit. And I would say on top
of what I would call normal wedding planning. I mean
the sketch was like one hundred hours of writing, shooting,
and editing easily. So now that it's done, no, I
fully feel entitled. I'm like on the day, it's I've
(19:29):
earned Like I'm king now. Yeah for sure.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
I made a playlist for my wedding Okay, so yeah
that was that was something. Big gifts I got for
my wedding party were tank tops with the local beer
logo on it that I got the day before.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
I know, we go way too hard, hence the nervous breakdown.
It's like the manufacturers that I can't stop doing cool
shit all the time.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
It's keep it cool.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Do they have like a program for that where they're
where they're like, all right, you're you're in this room
with other people who just can't stop doing cool shit.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
All too much ice cream and you get an ice
cream headache. That's where I like to use man. I
won't like it, but in IOP one of the last things,
because you like present at the end what you've learned.
I did it in the form of a wrap freaking
nerd and the people were like one guy and then
they all respond like with affirmations, and one guy was like,
(20:28):
I feel like I'm, you know, on the ground floor
of like this great talent. Man, you're gonna be famous.
And I'm like, don't say that. That is why I'm
fucking here. That's fixation. That's what I'm trying to let go.
That's like I just completed AA and you're like, you're
gonna get drunk, dude, I see it.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Be the funnest drunk guy ever.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
I can't wait, Hollywood, b.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Oh man, I bet you'd be a blast drunk man.
We should go down.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
I love to get fucked up with you, man.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Yeah, all right, let's take a quick break and we'll
come back and talk about some news stories and we're back. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
So this was news to me.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
The Republicans have been working on some investigations, eagerly anticipated investigations.
I mean, I guess, yeah, I guess it's not news.
They're always like, oh, man, what about Hunter Biden? Laptop though, Yeah,
what about Hunter Biden?
Speaker 4 (21:31):
What about what about?
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Yeah, what about what else? What else?
Speaker 1 (21:35):
What about what? Yeah? They took the mic at the
open mic. Yeah, they took the mic at the open mic?
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Did that one our house?
Speaker 1 (21:44):
And they're like, uh, what about uh? What about you guts?
Speaker 4 (21:48):
Does hot pockets a bit a lot?
Speaker 1 (21:52):
So, yeah, like what they find, miles, what did they unearthed?
Speaker 2 (21:55):
We've heard the threats, you know, in the lead up
to the mid terms, and then after the mid terms
when they to control the House, they're like, oh, just
fucking wait, because we're gonna bring the fucking hammer down
on Joe Brandon. And they said they're all kinds of
reports and things about how he took money as VP
and swayed foreign policy. The thing is James Kormer of
(22:16):
the uh, the chairman of the Oversight Committee of Kentucky,
doesn't have shit, and he's doing the like investigation equivalent
of when you try to rob a liquor store with
a banana in your coat pocket, being like I got
that thing on me, don't be and someone's like, man,
get the fuck out of my store. And that's kind
of what's happening right now. As the Republicans go on news,
(22:38):
like people are like even their own media is like, huh,
but what's the fucking evidence? Man, Like I thought you're
gonna fucking embarrass this guy. They're saying stuff like this
is gonna end Joe Biden's presidency. So as he's been
saying things like many people have been going around to
Fox and you know, giving little interviews. He recently confused
the fuck out of a few Fox News hosts when
(23:00):
he said he had the goods but can't show anyone yet.
And then our Senator Ron Johnson, he was on Maria
Bartiromo's show, and then this is what he said about like, well,
like do you have evidence? He's like, yeah, yeah, I mean,
here's the thing about evidence.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
The classic legal strategy of here's the thing about evidence.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
And money came from China and other adversarial countries, by
the way, not just China, but going into these ll
seas and then from there the money went from the
LLCs to various Biden family members.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
What can you tell us about that?
Speaker 3 (23:35):
What were they getting paid for?
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (23:38):
Where the receivers again on the bank records. You're not
going to see bribe to change this policy. You have
to infer what's happening here. You look at the bulk
of the evidence. You have to follow the money and realize, so,
what did this Biden family member do to earn that
amount of money? I mean, that's what we did with
Hunter Biden and Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
I mean, what did he I don't know if you
cut that. He just said you have to infer what's
happening here, right, And then at the end of it,
he's like, you're not going to necessarily get hard proof.
Is how he wraps up this very long winded sound
by and Maria Maria Bartiromo's like, what the fuck?
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Man?
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Okay, Then we have another one where Comber himself goes
on Fox and Friends, very friendly environment, and Steve Doocey's like, hey, man,
like you're laying this thing out about all these bribes
and stuff. Where's can what the like? But evidence? And
here's again just this very dissatisfied Fox News host.
Speaker 9 (24:35):
Sources between twenty fifteen and twenty seventeen, and your party,
the Republican investigators, say that that's proof of influence peddling
by Hunter and James. But that's just your suggestion. You
don't actually have any facts to that point. You've got
some circumstantial evidence. And the other thing is, of all
(24:57):
those names, the one person who didn't profit is so
there's no evidence that Joe Biden did anything illegally.
Speaker 10 (25:04):
Well, if you look at the laptop and the emails
between the president's and his associates, they went to great
links to hide Joe's involvement.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
They this like weird fucking merry go round has been
happening for the last fucking week, where even they're like,
what you're saying that shit's going on, but you're not
showing us anything that's going on. And I just have
to say, this is continuous again, this is like never ending.
Maria Bartiromo is like, hey, comber Man, you gotta come
(25:33):
with it, Like you're telling us about this, Where the
fuck are these people you said they got people who
are like can attest to this, You have whistleblowers and
all this other shit. Where are they? And again, uh,
it's it's it's not it's not a great not a
great show from James Comer.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
More important potentially here, and that is this cover up.
You have spoken with whistleblowers, You have spoken, You also
spoke with an informant who gave you all of this information.
Where is that informant today? Where are these whistleblowers?
Speaker 10 (26:03):
Well, unfortunately, we can't track down the informant. We're hopeful
that the informant is still there. The whistleblower knows the informant.
The whistle blower is very credible, and all we're asking
the FBI.
Speaker 5 (26:17):
They've now switched to Oh, man, I don't know where
the whistle blower was here.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Oh actually he's just going to the back.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
They're incredible, so credible. And just lastly, just what I
wrapped up because Marie Barberome was just like, hold on, bro,
what you just said that the motherfucker's missing? Like what's
going on?
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Then again, not a great answer, but it's fantastic just
in the context of that this person probably doesn't exist.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Hold on a second, Congressman, did you just say that
the whistleblower or the informant is now missing.
Speaker 11 (26:54):
Well, we we're hopefully we could find the informant.
Speaker 10 (26:58):
Remember, these slefts are are kind of in the.
Speaker 11 (27:01):
Spy business, so they don't make a habit of being
seen a lot or being a profile or anything like that.
Spy business have basic information with respect to what the face.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
That Joe Biden when he was all right anyway, So
well we've got to expect miles them to go on
the hostile grounds of Fox News and stand up to
the scrutiny that they always reserve for. Wait, no, actually
that those are the soft pulse. He's taking big pauses
(27:37):
like he's on delay, like he's coming to you from
the Middle Easter or some SMA centauri.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Yeah, well, they're in this spy business, so they don't
really they're not really high profile. That's not relevant really,
Like that's like asking like, well, who are these people?
Then you can be like, they're not really high profile people,
But to say, like where are they, They're like, well,
they're spies, so they don't really like hang out places.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Yeas like what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
So it's a very It's one of the shittiest diversionary
tactics I've seen, because like, I mean, I think they're
what they're really trying to do they want. They're running
like the twenty fifteen sixteen playbook all over again, where
they're trying to get like a year out, get some
really good scandals to stick, like they would have with
Hillary Clinton. But apparently they don't have misogyny on their
side this time. And there's just I don't know, they're
(28:25):
they're just they're scrambling now. And you have Marjorie Taylor
Green who's like followed up that interview and is like,
they're not missing, actually we know where they are.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
And it's like, what the fukay? Sure? You just didn't
want to tell you that because my dad's actually a cop, right,
and yeah, he's not well, speaking of misogyny on their side,
and people actually saying the thing that you want to
catch them doing, which doesn't appear to have happened here,
(28:59):
you know, you're just gonna have to infer things on
that story. On this other one, it sounds like less inference.
So Brudy Giuliani is being sued for sexual assault by
a former employee for ten million dollars over allegations of
sexual assault and harassment, wage theft, and other misconduct. The
plaintiff was hired in twenty nineteen with the salary of
(29:21):
one million dollars per year, which later turned out to
be a sham, and the sexual harassment and abuse began
almost immediately. Rue Giuliani, by the way, is on tap
saying that he wanted her the victim in this case
since the day he interviewed her. Just horrible, damning, gruesome
(29:41):
details about what he did to this person, but also
just you know, recorded alcohol drenched rants that include sexist, racist,
and anti Semitic remarks, claimed that he could commit crimes
because he has immunity, and admitting and admitted to selling
gardens for two million dollars with Trump. Wow.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
Yeah, and then that split it. They could split the money.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Yeah, money he and Trump would split.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
It's just it's really fucking wild. I mean, like, I
think he met her over Facebook and then offered this job,
and I was like, it's a million dollars a year,
but you know, I'm going through this really acrimonious divorce,
so I can't really pay you immediately all the money
and strung her along like this, while also being like, well,
since you're my assistant, you can record everything, and also
(30:31):
I can help represent you in a case against an
ex boyfriend that you're trying to sue, who like also
mistreated you. Apparently, so he was like he was, he
was going in at every angle to try and manipulate
this person.
Speaker 4 (30:45):
Man, a gaslighting, money laundering rapist. If he committed a
public shooting, he would truly be America's mayor. Right, that's
all of our four quadrants, dude.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Yeah, yeah, completely, they're really covering it all. Never paid
her claims because of his divorce, specifically told her not
to cooperate with the FBI. And again, you can do that.
Speaker 4 (31:08):
I'm getting divorced, and I'm sad. I'm sad.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
Yeah this week, that's right, But.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Don't cooperate with the FBI either.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
I did not know that demanded that she work naked
in a bikini or in short shorts with an American
flag on them that he bought for her. Over the computer.
He asked her to remove her clothes on camera, often
called her from his bed where he was visibly touching
himself under a white sheet.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
This is from a seventy page complaint too. This is
like a tip of the iceberg. I think most people
are only like reporting on a fraction of everything that's
in this thing.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Yes, demanded oral sex during phone calls from high profile
friends and clients because it made him, quote feel like
Bill Clinton. And if you remember that scene with him
on camera pulling down his pants and bore at two,
that scene is specifically referenced in the lawsuit, and they
even included a screen grab from the movie noting that
he acted in a similar manner with the plaintiff. So yeah,
(32:04):
it's just.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
Like so weirdly it's a screen grab where borats sixty
nine y with the naked back guy on floor at
the convention hall.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Like, whoops, he's just a big boorat man.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
I guess sorry, I shouldn't have left putting all the
evidence in order to of my why to get that
person out of the court room. Clear this room.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
The other thing is too, like I said, he's representing
her against like in a domestic violence suit against an X,
And he basically said, I'll pay you three hundred thousand
dollars if you waive your legal rights against your like
abusive X. Because it's like it's messing up, like you're
distracted from having sex with me, Jesus Christ, Like it's
(32:45):
fucking terrible. Yeah, and like just been on top of
it all too. The other thing that's probably making like
other people sweat around DC is she had access to
like all of his email.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
His emails. Yeah, he was like, you're my assistant, so
you have my email. You're basically my email account now
controller of he's out.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
Oh yeah, maybe those will be useful for you in
a lawsuit down the road. But yeah, like I'm fucking everyone,
every single Trump family member, uh, like the Trump lawyer
j Seculo, Kelly Conway, of Michael mccasey, Jeff Sessions, fucking
the the Ales family, like every fucking every like anyone
(33:24):
who has been to an orbit of the Trump's in
that administration.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
Yeah, got it, all recordings, emails.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
So yeah, we'll see. What's his defense though, is he
he's innocent?
Speaker 1 (33:36):
He's denied the allegations because Mayor Juliani's lifetime of public
service speaks for itself.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
So yeah, okay, I mean just seeing himself, Yeah, watching
him service himself in public in films, like yeah, okay, sure,
and like there's a lot I mean, yeah this again,
seventy fucking pages is like the complaint and like this
is only like most It sounds like most journalists are
(34:04):
like it's so fucking bad it's like not even worth
talking about, like aside from like the real nuts and
bolts of this case, but yikes.
Speaker 4 (34:11):
Also important the parts that Juliani's lifetime of public service
speaks for itself. And he will pursue all available counter claims.
I don't hear it, know, it's not even no not
a denial.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
Yeah, yeah, all right, let's take a quick break, we'll
come back. We'll talk about some more hopeful news. And
we're back. And uh, there's another kind of hopeful thread
(34:47):
from the guy we talked before about this guy, Michael
Thomas did a thread about how the Netherlands went from
being this traffic choked you know, just it looked a
lot like America, Like when you look at pictures of
the Netherlands and the fifties and sixties, they took a
(35:08):
bunch of funding from developers and filled in like their
waterways with cement to build highways, and shit, it was.
It was a real mess. And now they are known
as a place that has very low emissions and is
very bike friendly and pedestrian friendly, and it can happen
(35:29):
for cities in the modern world. And so he has
another threat about Paris, and this one is actually a
even more condensed timeline. All takes place basically in the
last ten years, and their strategy was basically go big
on bikes. They put those free rent to bikes everywhere
around town, basically bird before the tech industry quote revolutionized
(35:54):
the final mile problem. They actually just put those bikes
everywhere so anybody who needed to get somewhere could just
swipe and hop on a bike and get where they
needed to go. They got rid of a bunch of
parking in twenty twenty. They announced they'd be removing seventy
two percent of street parking for cars to accommodate cyclists
(36:15):
in twenty twenty and closed some of the biggest like
busiest roads and streets and highways and turn them into
bike highways. One case, they turned it into like a
bike highway and a beach. There's like a on the
sin like there used to be or the sind there
used to be like big highway right alongside, and they
(36:37):
just filled it in with sand and like a small
land for bikes. And I love it, like a great
place to hang out.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
It looks like a like a mini version with the
Venice boardwalk. Yeah, so strange to see you like that,
but hey, yeah, more space for people.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
Yeah, they And there's just a lot of like great
side by side pictures of like you know, what New
York City looks like today in a lot of places,
or what La looks like all over the place, and
like side by side with just these like great little
walkable communities, and like they've already cut emissions by twenty
(37:15):
percent in just like nine years of taking these like
passing this legislation. Also every change just like makes it
a less horrible place to live and also addresses like
one of the issues. When I was talking about the Netherlands,
people were like, well, but how are people going to
get around? Like one of the things the Netherlands did
was try something called car free Sundays. People, Right, well,
(37:40):
but that does that's not Sunday communities that like don't
have access to bikes or any any of that stuff.
But if you put other options in place, hopefully affordable options,
then it does start to seem more doable. And obviously
it's not a complete, like fix to the problem, but
(38:00):
a lot of just like small changes and trying things
out and disincentivizing people and businesses from building their lives
and businesses and communities in a way that requires people
to drive around angrily in our cars eight hours a
day can be a huge win and can have these
incremental changes where everybody suddenly stops feeling like this is
(38:24):
inescapable a world built four cars by sentient cars. I
feel like, is that's a thing that we can't even
like imagine our way out of. I s like, I
think part of the appeal of post apocalyptic movies is
that they offer the first like walkable communities most people
(38:45):
can realistically imagine in the United States because all the
cars are just gone. Not the driving dead. Yeah, it's
not the driving dead, I tell you that damn much.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
I think ever since we saw it happen in New York,
just like in the beginning of the pandemic, yeah, la
fucking please. Yeah, And like you see it in some places,
but it's mostly in the unincorporated parts of the city
where like their small city councils can just decide unilaterally
to be like, yeah, let's shut that part down, just like.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
A little nook over here.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
But God, what I would give to have like just
a couple streets like the where they prioritize bike traffic.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
It would be oh just it would make my fucking life.
Speaker 4 (39:24):
Yeah, there's a couple around me. I'm in Emoryville, Oakland
area in the Bay and there's like a street that
you can get around on with bikes. You just made
me remember, like way back at the beginning of the pandemic,
where like maybe this will be the tipping point for
some societal changes we need, like universal healthcare or more
walkable cities because people are gonna be or like if
(39:46):
they don't go to a building, maybe we don't need
those buildings. That's like, it's so funny, funny to look
back and realize the major changes. No, now we just
hate each other about masks and like there's a bunch
of new conspiracy theories about viral mind control and shit.
Speaker 1 (40:05):
Uh and a little work from home.
Speaker 4 (40:07):
Yeah, so that's my thing is I work from home
all the time. Ever since pandemic hit and all my
jobs went remote, I barely ever drive, which is nice.
But I also barely ever actually have reason to go outside,
which is not nice. Right. Uh, So I'm on the
I'll be honest. When I do get outside, I like that,
(40:29):
like if everyone was walking or riding their bikes. I'd
be like, there's too many people walking right.
Speaker 1 (40:34):
Now, right, you know what I mean, New York.
Speaker 4 (40:38):
What I really want is for other people to not exist.
That's what I want.
Speaker 1 (40:44):
The real part of movies that people like, yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:47):
Or all segues one or the other that was supposed
to do it. It was going to chase the way
cities were built.
Speaker 1 (40:52):
Yeah, I mean they had the like again, it's like
the thing that bird scooters came in and everyone was like,
these are revolutionary, and it's like a lot of people
have had this idea, it's just now venture capital decided
to fund it in the form of these dumb scooters
that people just leave all over the place. But yeah, yeah,
(41:13):
I mean New York has the rentable bikes and stuff.
It's just you need to like do that at scale
and also get rid of all of the traffic that
makes it so that like, oh yeah, bike around requires
you to take your life into your own hands.
Speaker 2 (41:28):
I feel like because in La, the tourists like, I'm sorry, tourists,
because there's bird scooters around doesn't mean it's fucking safe
for y'all. No, Because I all the time see tourists
like in the most dangerous fucking roads, being like, oh
I love this town. I'm on a bird scooter and
like people are flying by them like forty fifty miles
(41:49):
an hour and shit yea, and it's like it's it's
giving the impression that there's infrastructure that would keep you safe.
There's like also this like little stretch on the one
ten going into downtown that I see people like right
this narrow sort of sidewalk like right next to a
freeway and it's not it's obviously not in the like
on the freeway, but like when I see that, I'm like,
oh my god, Like these people are fucking like daredevils.
Speaker 1 (42:11):
Like riding a guard scooter down the four h five
with a map open in front of you.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
Yeah, I mean like just convert, like just start off
with a couple fucking streets, like two streets per neighborhood
like that are like the main thoroughfares, Like just give
us a little fucking bike action, please.
Speaker 4 (42:32):
Yeah. Me went a decent amount of money on a
bike for the first time in my life while I
was at crack, just because I was like, I'm only
like three and a half miles from the office. I
should commute back and forth every day. Only did it
for like four days before I seriously felt like, yeah,
but if you die, what's the point of this? Like
there was no every day I got going through. I
(42:55):
got a multiple like people screeching, honking, there's nowhere for
you to be, or go on the sidewalk and people shout,
you know, on the sidewalk like what want? Yeah, get
and get a car, motherfucker is the implication.
Speaker 1 (43:09):
I'm not going to die on clover Field you want,
But yeah, in America, it's like boring shit, like the
Chamber of Commerce that is secretly really powerful, or the
real estate industry that you know, even though this would
be good for the real estate industry, I just feel
like there are massive capital infused powers that are making
(43:30):
it so that these things that would make everyone's lives
better would help at least do a little like maybe
make a small dent in the problem with climate change
and all I think small dent in the actual you know,
it's only reduced emissions by twenty percent, that's still significant
significant nine years. But also just like mentally, like seeing
(43:54):
a mayor come in and like make these changes in
a single decade, I feel like has to give people
hope and like, you know, make it feel like there's
a world where hyper capitalism and whatever gets you from
one transaction to the next as quickly as possible with
as little friction as possible. Like that that ethos doesn't
(44:17):
have to run the world, which I think is hard
to imagine for a lot of us who have like
grown up in the world since like the eighties and nineties.
You know, Jack, that's what that's why you just got
to embrace the apocalypse man, and hope that comes right right,
because I can't imaginely easier to imagine the end of
the world than the end of castle.
Speaker 4 (44:37):
Blow it up.
Speaker 2 (44:38):
Yeah, I'm with you, know.
Speaker 1 (44:40):
That it happens. It happens.
Speaker 4 (44:42):
I feel like there's two forces that have gotten us
in trouble, that have just gotten out of control ever
since interchangeable parts are invented. We're like, oh, wow, it's
amazing when shit gets more efficient. Everything should just always
get more efficient, until we're producing so much that shit
is just spewing out of robots twenty four hours a day.
(45:04):
And then the other one is like we all is
the branding idea, Like, you know, there's great books to
read about it. But mad Men covers it fairly well.
The origin of the realization that oh, we could just
sell the idea of something or package stuff, or instead
of saying this is what the product provides, we can
(45:25):
say cool, people use this product way more effective. And
then the news was like, we can do that too.
So I just feel like those two impulses have really
screwed us up.
Speaker 2 (45:35):
Like P. T.
Speaker 4 (45:35):
Barnum and interchangeable parts guy, the cotton gen guy whoever it.
Speaker 1 (45:39):
Was, Eli Whitney, Yeah, but all the.
Speaker 4 (45:42):
Way through to like write the conveyor belt, and then
McDonald's like, we've applied it to everything, how can we
make this more efficient, lower cost, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (45:51):
And now parts reminds me of playing Civilization when you
get to that technology in Civilization replaceable parts. Sid Meyers
freaks out there. But oh, the thing I was gonna
say is like, I guess the only thing you could
do is like maybe trick the commercial real estate industry
because they're suffering right now, is to be like, what
if we turn the streets around all your commercial buildings
(46:14):
into like walkable areas, so naturally people will fucking come
through there.
Speaker 4 (46:18):
Because they ran out your bottom floor for.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
Yeah, stuff, people will at least move towards there because
you've you've created the infrastructure for people to move into
that area, and maybe that will do something, but they're
probably just.
Speaker 1 (46:31):
Completely you know, I don't know. They can't they can't
be changed. I mean that we had, like LA had
one of the largest rail lines, like just miles and
miles and miles and miles of you know, electric railcars
at the beginning of the twentieth century, and then cars
and tire companies came through and had their way with it, and.
Speaker 4 (46:52):
We've abandoned it to the morlocks. Yes, no, what ever
goes down there, that's true.
Speaker 2 (46:58):
Man, it's always a bummer to see, like when you
come across the old LA railway like infrastructure, when you're like,
what the like, you'll you like trip over like an
old fucking you know, like piece of train track.
Speaker 4 (47:08):
Writer. If you've been NYC enough, you'll see like a
sign with a subway map and you'll go, oh, is
some kind of New York City themed thing going on? Oh,
that's right, we have a subway. Never mind, that's right.
Speaker 1 (47:22):
Well, Michael, what a pleasure having you on the show.
Speaker 4 (47:26):
Thank you, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (47:27):
Where can people find you follow you and find out
more about Papa Bear.
Speaker 4 (47:33):
Yeah, I refrained from name dropping it so far, but
I'm working on a film called Papa Bear based on
the hilarious point a true story of when my dad
came out as a gay furry when I was seventeen.
Fun fact, his real persona is cyberbar and cybernetically Enhanced Bear.
But as screenwriters, we thought that was like a hat
(47:54):
on a hat, like real life. That's too many elements, right.
Speaker 1 (47:58):
No one's going to believe that.
Speaker 4 (48:00):
But the goal beyond just exploding some myths about furry
fandom and having an actually positive representation of that community.
It's not a niche movie only for first it's like
a poignant coming of age comedy. We're inspired by stuff
like eighth grade Ladybird Book, smart stuff like that. If
you like those, if you like our work at Cracked
by Us, I mean me and ab Eperson, who sort
(48:23):
of like forged the look of Cracked videos all the
way from the scrappy stuff to the high value stuff,
and we're trying to do it again. Oh also, we
have a pre existing movie called Kill Me Now, which
you could watch in its entirety on YouTube and I
only mention that because if all those things make you go,
oh yeah, these guys could make a movie. This looks good.
Speaker 1 (48:43):
I've made one.
Speaker 4 (48:44):
Yeah, go check us out at seed and spark dot com,
slash fund, slash Papa hyphen Bear and learn all about
the project. At the lowest tier, you can just give
us like fifteen bucks and it's just like buying a ticket.
Right when the movie's done, we'll send it to you
to watch and then it goes up from there. Or
you can follow me on Twitter at swim Underscore Corp.
(49:05):
And I'll keep you apprized.
Speaker 1 (49:08):
Yeah, well, that link will be in the show notes,
so you just like open the damn app that you're
listening to it.
Speaker 4 (49:19):
I wonder what the click through is on people who
read the show notes in their app and click a link.
Speaker 1 (49:24):
Yeah, it's unbelievably high. Is there a work of media
that you've been enjoying?
Speaker 4 (49:33):
Oh? Media? Oh, I will say I wanted to say
this in Act one, but I didn't find a good
spot to slip it in. But I think Coomer Comber,
whoever we were talking about the pundit in Act one,
is still doing good work from his point of view
in the sense that it is a marketing thing. It's
just about repetition. It's the Coca Cola version of it
(49:53):
doesn't matter if the follow through is and it's not true.
And here's why you said it a thousand times. And
that leads me to a piece of media I'm liking,
which is Foundation. I'm a big hard sci fi nerd.
If you are as well, and if you watch the
expanse and you're like, this is good but not scratching
that itch of like very intellectual sci fi, Foundation is
(50:15):
super good. And there's a character named Empire in that
who says the line related to this, which is they're like,
but that's not true, and he's like, but we'll just
have every galactic news source repeat it until the error
is made of it and there's nothing else to breathe.
Speaker 1 (50:33):

Eve six, that can't be, like I believe damn it. Yeah, Flames, Michael,
how how are you doing?
Speaker 4 (05:01):
I'm doing so so well and not in the fake
podcast way really bad, then really good. I didn't even
intend to talk about this, but I'll plug a thing
because it came out Monday. I do a series called
Tales from the Pit, where I usually interview people about
mental health challenges. We flipped It and Sore and Bowie,
(05:22):
our dear friend Sore and Bowie, hosted and interviewed me
about I recently went through what's called an intensive outpatient program,
which used to be called the Looney Bit, and learned
a bunch of new skills that now I think like
there is a honeymoon period and I have reasonable expectations,
(05:42):
but I'm still in the glow of like I feel
like a mind jedi, Like life is just a state
of mind, and I'm great. Ever since I went to
to this program. I'm great.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Yeah, yeah, that's great to hear. Man, that's awesome. Yeah,
iop I did one of those.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Yeah you know me, Yeah, oh yeah, I did.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
One of those. Yeah, back when I was stopping drinking.
Oh yeah yeah, And it was it was very beneficial.
I took two weeks off from Cracked, and yeah it was.
It was hard to make that initial commitment, but it was. Yeah.
I learned a lot of life skills and one of
the best things I ever did for myself, and.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
They actually worked. I went in really skeptical, like, my
pain is so deep and unique, it won't work on me. Yes,
and other guys were like, no, it will if you
give it the time. I'm at the end of the process.
It totally worked. And I thought it wouldn't work. And
now I'm the guy at the end going you'd think
it wouldn't work.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
But right, get some other skeptical young in aka could
be somebody in their like fifties but coming in all
skeptical and ship. Yeah. Anyways, awesome man, We're going to
get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First,
we're going to tell our listeners a couple of the
things we're talking about We're going to talk about some
(06:57):
GOP investigations that I guess they've maybe been looking looking
forward to on on Fox. I was not aware of them,
but they're actually starting to bear fruit.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Oh yeah, yeah, baby, I mean we're fucked, and by
where I mean the Joe Brandon crime syndicate is fucked.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
I actually didn't see this story until just now, so
I'm excited to see what they thought, what they've dug
up for us. And then Rudy Giuliani is she's being
sued for sexual assault, and just all sorts of grewsome details,
but also you know, enlightening details about how he was
thinking about his role within the Trump administration, such as
(07:39):
admitting to selling pardons for two million dollars on tape.
On Wax, we'll talk about Paris, which is as recently
as like a decade ago, not a very bike friendly city,
even though you know, people riding a bike with a
baguette in a bag is one of the international symbol
(08:00):
of Paris. But yeah, it was actually a very polluted,
a car choked city fairly recently and is now doing great.
They've cut their emissions by twenty percent. They've made their
city way more livable one of those one of those
happy stories that I like to check in with her.
(08:20):
I want that, I want that. How do I get
to there?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (08:25):
But before we get to any of it, Michael, we
do like to ask our guests, what is something from
your search history?
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Yeah? I had to dig back a little bit, but
I discovered something, and then I scared myself by going
what was that and reclicking it. It's the words our
Prisoner fall Out. And there's this old sixties show that
only ran for one season and was beloved in that time,
like how some people loved Firefly as it was, you know,
(08:56):
dying called the Prisoner. I mainly knew it from Simpson's references,
like the island is guarded by a giant plastic ball
that smothers you. I knew that already.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Oh bo, I remember that from like, yeah, the pretty
episode where Homer goes on the island.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Yeah, when he's mister X journalist and yeah, So anyway,
that is the premise. I think it's magooin So anyway,
the premise is just that a guy's trapped on a
wacky island. It's super surreal and trippy, and he's trying
to escape and a primordial terror of mind that still
shakes me to my core. Was one night I was
(09:33):
really young and stayed up way too late and was
watching random tapes and I remember it was a high
eight tape. My dad had a high eight player. This
is like a thing that's not VCR, that's not like
so obsolete. People have probably not heard of it.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
It's not even Betamax.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Yeah, like we'd watch Rocketdood'll do on High eight and stuff.
So he had this high eight tape. There was a
documentary about great sci fi shows and it showed the
last episode of The pri and the last episode of
The Prisoner. Just this out of context scene is this
guy going I will not be stamped, spindled or mutilated.
I I I I I I I I And then
(10:12):
like his face rips off and he's this guerrilla monster.
And I'm like seven years old, and I like ship
my pants round out of the room. And I was
fascinated with that scene forever, and I've been trying to
find it forever and I finally figured out it's the
final scene of The Prisoner.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
But I was always just like, what's that III monkey man?
Right about? Well? Is that Charles Yeah, you finally unlocked it.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Wow. We always talk about the impending conflict that we're
all going to die in as World War III on
the daily. All Right, I can't wait a great joke.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Wait, howcome it was a how come it's like a
monkey bio weapon for what's going on? Like without a
huge reak.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
You'll understand how trippy and phoned in sixties TV was
so then in that I was about in the context
as stupid as hell. So then he rips off the
monkey face and it's his own, it's himself, and this
is the mysterious evil guy that they've been milking the
whole series. Who's it going to be? It's him? And
he just starts laughing and laughing, and our guy teams
(11:19):
up with a little person, Butler kills everyone with machine
guns and like gets out, and that's then. I don't
fully understand the context, but I don't think it would
make it better if I did.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Man, you didn't stick around for the important payoffs. Everyone
with machine guns help you so much?
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Kid? Yeah, thank god he's dead.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
I love a good Scooby Doo mask reveal and then
second mask, you're just covering under two layers of masks,
and that they went through the trouble of just building
a mask that would go on top of a mask
that was a perfect replica of their own face that
they had been wearing against.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
The mission impossible Latex.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Then oh wait, so it reverted back to his original.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Face, right?
Speaker 4 (12:10):
And then the implication I think is who knows who
that is? Like, it's open to interpretation. It might not
be you know, they don't dig into it.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
You're like, now I'm playing it's me.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
He beats them to death of a fire. Exting was
sure if I recall, Okay.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Now I need to wats just last episode out of context? O, man,
what is something you think is overrated?
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Michael?
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Right now, all the shows that everyone loves come on.
I don't need to rail too hard about it. But
I haven't gotten to in public yet. But I was
watching Succession like everyone and a few episodes ago, even
though it's so close to the end, I just am
so bored enough by it that I'm like, yeah, but
(12:55):
it's literally not worth my time. And I just walked away.
And there's been a couple like that, and I'm worried
that I'm I'm falling out of touch. As they say,
but I can't stand shows without dynamics. And it's like
every scene is it's like always Sonny in Philadelphia without jokes.
And I know people who said Arrested Development without jokes,
but Arrested Development was structurally complex. Succession is like I
(13:17):
wonder if they'll fuck them over at the end of
the scene. I wonder if they have the fairy's intent.
I wonder if they're gonna end up yelling at each
other saying something horrible they can't take back. I think
I had the same thing with Game of Thrones. You
gotta have a lot of dynamics for me. Yeah, I
forget I should have written more than all the shows
everyone loves, because there was another one that I had
(13:39):
a whole cracked style thesis about. But you know what,
you're not my boss anymore. I don't have to do
that to refu content.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
Dad.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Is it Barry? I like Barry? I know, I like
you would like Barry. Actually, yeah, and I like that.
I don't know if it was fully Oh, Ted Lasso,
that's the one. Ted Lasso sucks. I always out it has.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
I think it's interesting that Barry went from season one
has the highest proportion of jokes to ship is real
and then it's like smoothly Season two is more real, real,
real real. I'm pretty sure Bill Hayter is trying to
hop permanently too. I'm gonna direct like real ship now.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Yeah. It feels like this is I can't wait for him,
and this is the first time I've seen that transition
somebody going from like TV and like directing so many
TV episodes so well that I'm now just and I
think a lot of people are now like eagerly awaiting
what his first film will be.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Yeah, Wifie count Jordan Peel. But it was directing sketches.
It's not real as as I will now.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Yeah, like watch it like from Key and Peel. I
wasn't then waiting for ye.
Speaker 6 (14:54):
Whoa, You're like, yeah, yeah, now I I will allow
you to talk about succession but ted laugh though, I
mean that is dramatallurgically everything that happens on that is
necessary to quote Jeremy Strong.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
Sure, show's perfect, and there's got to be some kind
of Uh. I'm just nostalgic goggles only because I really
like Bill Lawrence, the show runner. I've looked up to
him for a long time. I really like Scrubs, even
though there's like, I mean, as you get older and older,
he's not immune to highly problematic shit if you go
back and watch Scrubs. But I still love a lot
(15:31):
of the techniques. A lot of modern sitcoms use the
techniques he developed in Scrubs. And I don't know, maybe
I'm just a sucker, but I watched Ted Lasso and
I'm like, man, if this was a Scrubs, I'd be
laughing out loud instead of just going these people are nice.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
This is nice. It's nice because everyone's so nice. Yeah,
that's why.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Hey, maybe you need that energy or power to you.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yeah, I'm allergic to it. I just can't when I
see it, I'm like, oh, it's too nice for me.
Like I'm a lost cause don't like, don't cry for
me because I'm already dead and dead lass, I ain't
breaking through. What is something you think is underrated?
Speaker 4 (16:12):
I forget what the hell I had. But as soon
as you did know wedding bars, a wedding planning, fuck that, Yeah,
my weddings and swill days. Who gives a shit?
Speaker 7 (16:21):
Flow by, more importantly, the flowbots, bro, there's so easy
highly slept on They're like a rap version of rage
against the machine ethos wise, like all they rap about
is have capitalisms bullshit.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
The farther we go forward in time, the more everything
they say rings true, Like and Braiden Rise, there's a
war going on for your mind. Same thing, Good Soldier.
So many great songs, really eloquent lyrics, great flow, like
rappers with really melodic flow, and like the roots are like,
I mean, I always love live band with live drums
(17:01):
doing rap with like a horn section. You don't get
that a lot, right. The flowbots are great?
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Wow, there we go. I mean, I don't think you
even needed to mention that day a great flow after
people heard me my AKA but yeah yeah, and.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
The robots, what do you think?
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (17:18):
So, I mean, but your wedding, Just to touch on that,
as somebody who was married in the last year, you're
you feel good, you're nervous. Yeah yeah, yeah, let it listen,
let it let the camera catch that. But I know
the feeling when you're just like less than two weeks
out and all your for me. All I thought about
was like, how is this event going to go down?
(17:38):
Not so much of like the marriage itself, but the
actual wedding and the shit gonna be where it needs
to be. Are people gonna like what they? And I
did my head and until somebody, like a family member
was like, was like, you look fucking tense as fuck.
What you need to do is act like a guest.
Don't act like a fucking host at your wedding. And
that was the best advice I've received in the lead
up of to be able to, like on the day,
(18:01):
just put everything else out of mind and just switch
to being like, I'm a guess at this wonderful thing.
But are you Are you close to feeling like that
or is it still kind of.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
Like, oh yeah, I feel that entitlement. That's great advice
that I have gotten and taken to heart because I
feel like we did our work in the prep and
that we're both workaholics, so we took X. We went
extra extra, so like the gifts for the bridal parties
are pretty specific and elaborate and will be like surprising
(18:30):
delights that took a lot of extra work. I know,
no one attending. I think most people attending will not
hear this. No, some will, Oh well, we shot a
full like cracked caliber sketch to unveil at the wedding.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
We start in with.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
Pretty ambitious special effects and a full orchestral score and shit,
and had a crew out there two days of shooting
and some other surprises. So like, we went hard and
there's costume changes involved, and uh, you know, some of
the actors you helped bring up Jack are involved in
(19:08):
some performance pieces happening through housing. So we're doing a
whole day of bullshit. And I would say on top
of what I would call normal wedding planning. I mean
the sketch was like one hundred hours of writing, shooting,
and editing easily. So now that it's done, no, I
fully feel entitled. I'm like on the day, it's I've
(19:29):
earned Like I'm king now. Yeah for sure.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
I made a playlist for my wedding Okay, so yeah
that was that was something. Big gifts I got for
my wedding party were tank tops with the local beer
logo on it that I got the day before.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
I know, we go way too hard, hence the nervous breakdown.
It's like the manufacturers that I can't stop doing cool
shit all the time.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
It's keep it cool.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Do they have like a program for that where they're
where they're like, all right, you're you're in this room
with other people who just can't stop doing cool shit.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
All too much ice cream and you get an ice
cream headache. That's where I like to use man. I
won't like it, but in IOP one of the last things,
because you like present at the end what you've learned.
I did it in the form of a wrap freaking
nerd and the people were like one guy and then
they all respond like with affirmations, and one guy was like,
(20:28):
I feel like I'm, you know, on the ground floor
of like this great talent. Man, you're gonna be famous.
And I'm like, don't say that. That is why I'm
fucking here. That's fixation. That's what I'm trying to let go.
That's like I just completed AA and you're like, you're
gonna get drunk, dude, I see it.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Be the funnest drunk guy ever.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
I can't wait, Hollywood, b.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Oh man, I bet you'd be a blast drunk man.
We should go down.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
I love to get fucked up with you, man.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Yeah, all right, let's take a quick break and we'll
come back and talk about some news stories and we're back. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
So this was news to me.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
The Republicans have been working on some investigations, eagerly anticipated investigations.
I mean, I guess, yeah, I guess it's not news.
They're always like, oh, man, what about Hunter Biden? Laptop though, Yeah,
what about Hunter Biden?
Speaker 4 (21:31):
What about what about?
Speaker 1 (21:32):

open mic. Yeah, they took the mic at the open mic?
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Did that one our house?
Speaker 1 (21:44):
And they're like, uh, what about uh? What about you guts?
Speaker 4 (21:48):
Does hot pockets a bit a lot?
Speaker 1 (21:52):
So, yeah, like what they find, miles, what did they unearthed?
Speaker 2 (21:55):
We've heard the threats, you know, in the lead up
to the mid terms, and then after the mid terms
when they to control the House, they're like, oh, just
fucking wait, because we're gonna bring the fucking hammer down
on Joe Brandon. And they said they're all kinds of
reports and things about how he took money as VP
and swayed foreign policy. The thing is James Kormer of
(22:16):
the uh, the chairman of the Oversight Committee of Kentucky,
doesn't have shit, and he's doing the like investigation equivalent
of when you try to rob a liquor store with
a banana in your coat pocket, being like I got
that thing on me, don't be and someone's like, man,
get the fuck out of my store. And that's kind
of what's happening right now. As the Republicans go on news,
(22:38):
like people are like even their own media is like, huh,
but what's the fucking evidence? Man, Like I thought you're
gonna fucking embarrass this guy. They're saying stuff like this
is gonna end Joe Biden's presidency. So as he's been
saying things like many people have been going around to
Fox and you know, giving little interviews. He recently confused
the fuck out of a few Fox News hosts when
(23:00):
he said he had the goods but can't show anyone yet.
And then our Senator Ron Johnson, he was on Maria
Bartiromo's show, and then this is what he said about like, well,
like do you have evidence? He's like, yeah, yeah, I mean,
here's the thing about evidence.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
The classic legal strategy of here's the thing about evidence.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
And money came from China and other adversarial countries, by
the way, not just China, but going into these ll
seas and then from there the money went from the
LLCs to various Biden family members.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
What can you tell us about that?
Speaker 3 (23:35):
What were they getting paid for?
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (23:38):
Where the receivers again on the bank records. You're not
going to see bribe to change this policy. You have
to infer what's happening here. You look at the bulk
of the evidence. You have to follow the money and realize, so,
what did this Biden family member do to earn that
amount of money? I mean, that's what we did with
Hunter Biden and Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
I mean, what did he I don't know if you
cut that. He just said you have to infer what's
happening here, right, And then at the end of it,
he's like, you're not going to necessarily get hard proof.
Is how he wraps up this very long winded sound
by and Maria Maria Bartiromo's like, what the fuck?
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Man?
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Okay, Then we have another one where Comber himself goes
on Fox and Friends, very friendly environment, and Steve Doocey's like, hey, man,
like you're laying this thing out about all these bribes
and stuff. Where's can what the like? But evidence? And
here's again just this very dissatisfied Fox News host.
Speaker 9 (24:35):
Sources between twenty fifteen and twenty seventeen, and your party,
the Republican investigators, say that that's proof of influence peddling
by Hunter and James. But that's just your suggestion. You
don't actually have any facts to that point. You've got
some circumstantial evidence. And the other thing is, of all
(24:57):
those names, the one person who didn't profit is so
there's no evidence that Joe Biden did anything illegally.
Speaker 10 (25:04):
Well, if you look at the laptop and the emails
between the president's and his associates, they went to great
links to hide Joe's involvement.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
They this like weird fucking merry go round has been
happening for the last fucking week, where even they're like,
what you're saying that shit's going on, but you're not
showing us anything that's going on. And I just have
to say, this is continuous again, this is like never ending.
Maria Bartiromo is like, hey, comber Man, you gotta come
(25:33):
with it, Like you're telling us about this, Where the
fuck are these people you said they got people who
are like can attest to this, You have whistleblowers and
all this other shit. Where are they? And again, uh,
it's it's it's not it's not a great not a
great show from James Comer.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
More important potentially here, and that is this cover up.
You have spoken with whistleblowers, You have spoken, You also
spoke with an informant who gave you all of this information.
Where is that informant today? Where are these whistleblowers?
Speaker 10 (26:03):
Well, unfortunately, we can't track down the informant. We're hopeful
that the informant is still there. The whistleblower knows the informant.
The whistle blower is very credible, and all we're asking
the FBI.
Speaker 5 (26:17):
They've now switched to Oh, man, I don't know where
the whistle blower was here.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Oh actually he's just going to the back.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
They're incredible, so credible. And just lastly, just what I
wrapped up because Marie Barberome was just like, hold on, bro,
what you just said that the motherfucker's missing? Like what's
going on?
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Then again, not a great answer, but it's fantastic just
in the context of that this person probably doesn't exist.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Hold on a second, Congressman, did you just say that
the whistleblower or the informant is now missing.
Speaker 11 (26:54):
Well, we we're hopefully we could find the informant.
Speaker 10 (26:58):
Remember, these slefts are are kind of in the.
Speaker 11 (27:01):
Spy business, so they don't make a habit of being
seen a lot or being a profile or anything like that.
Spy business have basic information with respect to what the face.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
That Joe Biden when he was all right anyway, So
well we've got to expect miles them to go on
the hostile grounds of Fox News and stand up to
the scrutiny that they always reserve for. Wait, no, actually
that those are the soft pulse. He's taking big pauses
(27:37):
like he's on delay, like he's coming to you from
the Middle Easter or some SMA centauri.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Yeah, well, they're in this spy business, so they don't
really they're not really high profile. That's not relevant really,
Like that's like asking like, well, who are these people?
Then you can be like, they're not really high profile people,
But to say, like where are they, They're like, well,
they're spies, so they don't really like hang out places.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Yeas like what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
So it's a very It's one of the shittiest diversionary
tactics I've seen, because like, I mean, I think they're
what they're really trying to do they want. They're running
like the twenty fifteen sixteen playbook all over again, where
they're trying to get like a year out, get some
really good scandals to stick, like they would have with
Hillary Clinton. But apparently they don't have misogyny on their
side this time. And there's just I don't know, they're
(28:25):
they're just they're scrambling now. And you have Marjorie Taylor
Green who's like followed up that interview and is like,
they're not missing, actually we know where they are.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
And it's like, what the fukay? Sure? You just didn't
want to tell you that because my dad's actually a cop, right,
and yeah, he's not well, speaking of misogyny on their side,
and people actually saying the thing that you want to
catch them doing, which doesn't appear to have happened here,
(28:59):
you know, you're just gonna have to infer things on
that story. On this other one, it sounds like less inference.
So Brudy Giuliani is being sued for sexual assault by
a former employee for ten million dollars over allegations of
sexual assault and harassment, wage theft, and other misconduct. The
plaintiff was hired in twenty nineteen with the salary of
(29:21):
one million dollars per year, which later turned out to
be a sham, and the sexual harassment and abuse began
almost immediately. Rue Giuliani, by the way, is on tap
saying that he wanted her the victim in this case
since the day he interviewed her. Just horrible, damning, gruesome
(29:41):
details about what he did to this person, but also
just you know, recorded alcohol drenched rants that include sexist, racist,
and anti Semitic remarks, claimed that he could commit crimes
because he has immunity, and admitting and admitted to selling
gardens for two million dollars with Trump. Wow.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
Yeah, and then that split it. They could split the money.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Yeah, money he and Trump would split.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
It's just it's really fucking wild. I mean, like, I
think he met her over Facebook and then offered this job,
and I was like, it's a million dollars a year,
but you know, I'm going through this really acrimonious divorce,
so I can't really pay you immediately all the money
and strung her along like this, while also being like, well,
since you're my assistant, you can record everything, and also
(30:31):
I can help represent you in a case against an
ex boyfriend that you're trying to sue, who like also
mistreated you. Apparently, so he was like he was, he
was going in at every angle to try and manipulate
this person.
Speaker 4 (30:45):
Man, a gaslighting, money laundering rapist. If he committed a
public shooting, he would truly be America's mayor. Right, that's
all of our four quadrants, dude.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Yeah, yeah, completely, they're really covering it all. Never paid
her claims because of his divorce, specifically told her not
to cooperate with the FBI. And again, you can do that.
Speaker 4 (31:08):
I'm getting divorced, and I'm sad. I'm sad.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
Yeah this week, that's right, But.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Don't cooperate with the FBI either.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
I did not know that demanded that she work naked
in a bikini or in short shorts with an American
flag on them that he bought for her. Over the computer.
He asked her to remove her clothes on camera, often
called her from his bed where he was visibly touching
himself under a white sheet.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
This is from a seventy page complaint too. This is
like a tip of the iceberg. I think most people
are only like reporting on a fraction of everything that's
in this thing.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Yes, demanded oral sex during phone calls from high profile
friends and clients because it made him, quote feel like
Bill Clinton. And if you remember that scene with him
on camera pulling down his pants and bore at two,
that scene is specifically referenced in the lawsuit, and they
even included a screen grab from the movie noting that
he acted in a similar manner with the plaintiff. So yeah,
(32:04):
it's just.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
Like so weirdly it's a screen grab where borats sixty
nine y with the naked back guy on floor at
the convention hall.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Like, whoops, he's just a big boorat man.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
I guess sorry, I shouldn't have left putting all the
evidence in order to of my why to get that
person out of the court room. Clear this room.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
The other thing is too, like I said, he's representing
her against like in a domestic violence suit against an X,
And he basically said, I'll pay you three hundred thousand
dollars if you waive your legal rights against your like
abusive X. Because it's like it's messing up, like you're
distracted from having sex with me, Jesus Christ, Like it's
(32:45):
fucking terrible. Yeah, and like just been on top of
it all too. The other thing that's probably making like
other people sweat around DC is she had access to
like all of his email.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
His emails. Yeah, he was like, you're my assistant, so
you have my email. You're basically my email account now
controller of he's out.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
Oh yeah, maybe those will be useful for you in
a lawsuit down the road. But yeah, like I'm fucking everyone,
every single Trump family member, uh, like the Trump lawyer
j Seculo, Kelly Conway, of Michael mccasey, Jeff Sessions, fucking
the the Ales family, like every fucking every like anyone
(33:24):
who has been to an orbit of the Trump's in
that administration.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
Yeah, got it, all recordings, emails.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
So yeah, we'll see. What's his defense though, is he
he's innocent?
Speaker 1 (33:36):
He's denied the allegations because Mayor Juliani's lifetime of public
service speaks for itself.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
So yeah, okay, I mean just seeing himself, Yeah, watching
him service himself in public in films, like yeah, okay, sure,
and like there's a lot I mean, yeah this again,
seventy fucking pages is like the complaint and like this
is only like most It sounds like most journalists are
(34:04):
like it's so fucking bad it's like not even worth
talking about, like aside from like the real nuts and
bolts of this case, but yikes.
Speaker 4 (34:11):
Also important the parts that Juliani's lifetime of public service
speaks for itself. And he will pursue all available counter claims.
I don't hear it, know, it's not even no not
a denial.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
Yeah, yeah, all right, let's take a quick break, we'll
come back. We'll talk about some more hopeful news. And
we're back. And uh, there's another kind of hopeful thread
(34:47):
from the guy we talked before about this guy, Michael
Thomas did a thread about how the Netherlands went from
being this traffic choked you know, just it looked a
lot like America, Like when you look at pictures of
the Netherlands and the fifties and sixties, they took a
(35:08):
bunch of funding from developers and filled in like their
waterways with cement to build highways, and shit, it was.
It was a real mess. And now they are known
as a place that has very low emissions and is
very bike friendly and pedestrian friendly, and it can happen
(35:29):
for cities in the modern world. And so he has
another threat about Paris, and this one is actually a
even more condensed timeline. All takes place basically in the
last ten years, and their strategy was basically go big
on bikes. They put those free rent to bikes everywhere
around town, basically bird before the tech industry quote revolutionized
(35:54):
the final mile problem. They actually just put those bikes
everywhere so anybody who needed to get somewhere could just
swipe and hop on a bike and get where they
needed to go. They got rid of a bunch of
parking in twenty twenty. They announced they'd be removing seventy
two percent of street parking for cars to accommodate cyclists
(36:15):
in twenty twenty and closed some of the biggest like
busiest roads and streets and highways and turn them into
bike highways. One case, they turned it into like a
bike highway and a beach. There's like a on the
sin like there used to be or the sind there
used to be like big highway right alongside, and they
(36:37):
just filled it in with sand and like a small
land for bikes. And I love it, like a great
place to hang out.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
It looks like a like a mini version with the
Venice boardwalk. Yeah, so strange to see you like that,
but hey, yeah, more space for people.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
Yeah, they And there's just a lot of like great
side by side pictures of like you know, what New
York City looks like today in a lot of places,
or what La looks like all over the place, and
like side by side with just these like great little
walkable communities, and like they've already cut emissions by twenty
(37:15):
percent in just like nine years of taking these like
passing this legislation. Also every change just like makes it
a less horrible place to live and also addresses like
one of the issues. When I was talking about the Netherlands,
people were like, well, but how are people going to
get around? Like one of the things the Netherlands did
was try something called car free Sundays. People, Right, well,
(37:40):
but that does that's not Sunday communities that like don't
have access to bikes or any any of that stuff.
But if you put other options in place, hopefully affordable options,
then it does start to seem more doable. And obviously
it's not a complete, like fix to the problem, but
(38:00):
a lot of just like small changes and trying things
out and disincentivizing people and businesses from building their lives
and businesses and communities in a way that requires people
to drive around angrily in our cars eight hours a
day can be a huge win and can have these
incremental changes where everybody suddenly stops feeling like this is
(38:24):
inescapable a world built four cars by sentient cars. I
feel like, is that's a thing that we can't even
like imagine our way out of. I s like, I
think part of the appeal of post apocalyptic movies is
that they offer the first like walkable communities most people
(38:45):
can realistically imagine in the United States because all the
cars are just gone. Not the driving dead. Yeah, it's
not the driving dead, I tell you that damn much.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
I think ever since we saw it happen in New York,
just like in the beginning of the pandemic, yeah, la
fucking please. Yeah, And like you see it in some places,
but it's mostly in the unincorporated parts of the city
where like their small city councils can just decide unilaterally
to be like, yeah, let's shut that part down, just like.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
A little nook over here.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
But God, what I would give to have like just
a couple streets like the where they prioritize bike traffic.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
It would be oh just it would make my fucking life.
Speaker 4 (39:24):
Yeah, there's a couple around me. I'm in Emoryville, Oakland
area in the Bay and there's like a street that
you can get around on with bikes. You just made
me remember, like way back at the beginning of the pandemic,
where like maybe this will be the tipping point for
some societal changes we need, like universal healthcare or more
walkable cities because people are gonna be or like if
(39:46):
they don't go to a building, maybe we don't need
those buildings. That's like, it's so funny, funny to look
back and realize the major changes. No, now we just
hate each other about masks and like there's a bunch
of new conspiracy theories about viral mind control and shit.
Speaker 1 (40:05):
Uh and a little work from home.
Speaker 4 (40:07):
Yeah, so that's my thing is I work from home
all the time. Ever since pandemic hit and all my
jobs went remote, I barely ever drive, which is nice.
But I also barely ever actually have reason to go outside,
which is not nice. Right. Uh, So I'm on the
I'll be honest. When I do get outside, I like that,
(40:29):
like if everyone was walking or riding their bikes. I'd
be like, there's too many people walking right.
Speaker 1 (40:34):
Now, right, you know what I mean, New York.
Speaker 4 (40:38):
What I really want is for other people to not exist.
That's what I want.
Speaker 1 (40:44):
The real part of movies that people like, yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:47):
Or all segues one or the other that was supposed
to do it. It was going to chase the way
cities were built.
Speaker 1 (40:52):
Yeah, I mean they had the like again, it's like
the thing that bird scooters came in and everyone was like,
these are revolutionary, and it's like a lot of people
have had this idea, it's just now venture capital decided
to fund it in the form of these dumb scooters
that people just leave all over the place. But yeah, yeah,
(41:13):
I mean New York has the rentable bikes and stuff.
It's just you need to like do that at scale
and also get rid of all of the traffic that
makes it so that like, oh yeah, bike around requires
you to take your life into your own hands.
Speaker 2 (41:28):
I feel like because in La, the tourists like, I'm sorry, tourists,
because there's bird scooters around doesn't mean it's fucking safe
for y'all. No, Because I all the time see tourists
like in the most dangerous fucking roads, being like, oh
I love this town. I'm on a bird scooter and
like people are flying by them like forty fifty miles
(41:49):
an hour and shit yea, and it's like it's it's
giving the impression that there's infrastructure that would keep you safe.
There's like also this like little stretch on the one
ten going into downtown that I see people like right
this narrow sort of sidewalk like right next to a
freeway and it's not it's obviously not in the like
on the freeway, but like when I see that, I'm like,
oh my god, Like these people are fucking like daredevils.
Speaker 1 (42:11):
Like riding a guard scooter down the four h five
with a map open in front of you.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
Yeah, I mean like just convert, like just start off
with a couple fucking streets, like two streets per neighborhood
like that are like the main thoroughfares, Like just give
us a little fucking bike action, please.
Speaker 4 (42:32):
Yeah. Me went a decent amount of money on a
bike for the first time in my life while I
was at crack, just because I was like, I'm only
like three and a half miles from the office. I
should commute back and forth every day. Only did it
for like four days before I seriously felt like, yeah,
but if you die, what's the point of this? Like
there was no every day I got going through. I
(42:55):
got a multiple like people screeching, honking, there's nowhere for
you to be, or go on the sidewalk and people shout,
you know, on the sidewalk like what want? Yeah, get
and get a car, motherfucker is the implication.
Speaker 1 (43:09):
I'm not going to die on clover Field you want,
But yeah, in America, it's like boring shit, like the
Chamber of Commerce that is secretly really powerful, or the
real estate industry that you know, even though this would
be good for the real estate industry, I just feel
like there are massive capital infused powers that are making
(43:30):
it so that these things that would make everyone's lives
better would help at least do a little like maybe
make a small dent in the problem with climate change
and all I think small dent in the actual you know,
it's only reduced emissions by twenty percent, that's still significant
significant nine years. But also just like mentally, like seeing
(43:54):
a mayor come in and like make these changes in
a single decade, I feel like has to give people
hope and like, you know, make it feel like there's
a world where hyper capitalism and whatever gets you from
one transaction to the next as quickly as possible with
as little friction as possible. Like that that ethos doesn't
(44:17):
have to run the world, which I think is hard
to imagine for a lot of us who have like
grown up in the world since like the eighties and nineties.
You know, Jack, that's what that's why you just got
to embrace the apocalypse man, and hope that comes right right,
because I can't imaginely easier to imagine the end of
the world than the end of castle.
Speaker 4 (44:37):
Blow it up.
Speaker 2 (44:38):
Yeah, I'm with you, know.
Speaker 1 (44:40):
That it happens. It happens.
Speaker 4 (44:42):
I feel like there's two forces that have gotten us
in trouble, that have just gotten out of control ever
since interchangeable parts are invented. We're like, oh, wow, it's
amazing when shit gets more efficient. Everything should just always
get more efficient, until we're producing so much that shit
is just spewing out of robots twenty four hours a day.
(45:04):
And then the other one is like we all is
the branding idea, Like, you know, there's great books to
read about it. But mad Men covers it fairly well.
The origin of the realization that oh, we could just
sell the idea of something or package stuff, or instead
of saying this is what the product provides, we can
(45:25):
say cool, people use this product way more effective. And
then the news was like, we can do that too.
So I just feel like those two impulses have really
screwed us up.
Speaker 2 (45:35):
Like P. T.
Speaker 4 (45:35):
Barnum and interchangeable parts guy, the cotton gen guy whoever it.
Speaker 1 (45:39):
Was, Eli Whitney, Yeah, but all the.
Speaker 4 (45:42):
Way through to like write the conveyor belt, and then
McDonald's like, we've applied it to everything, how can we
make this more efficient, lower cost, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (45:51):
And now parts reminds me of playing Civilization when you
get to that technology in Civilization replaceable parts. Sid Meyers
freaks out there. But oh, the thing I was gonna
say is like, I guess the only thing you could
do is like maybe trick the commercial real estate industry
because they're suffering right now, is to be like, what
if we turn the streets around all your commercial buildings
(46:14):
into like walkable areas, so naturally people will fucking come
through there.
Speaker 4 (46:18):
Because they ran out your bottom floor for.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
Yeah, stuff, people will at least move towards there because
you've you've created the infrastructure for people to move into
that area, and maybe that will do something, but they're
probably just.
Speaker 1 (46:31):
Completely you know, I don't know. They can't they can't
be changed. I mean that we had, like LA had
one of the largest rail lines, like just miles and
miles and miles and miles of you know, electric railcars
at the beginning of the twentieth century, and then cars
and tire companies came through and had their way with it, and.
Speaker 4 (46:52):
We've abandoned it to the morlocks. Yes, no, what ever
goes down there, that's true.
Speaker 2 (46:58):
Man, it's always a bummer to see, like when you
come across the old LA railway like infrastructure, when you're like,
what the like, you'll you like trip over like an
old fucking you know, like piece of train track.
Speaker 4 (47:08):
Writer. If you've been NYC enough, you'll see like a
sign with a subway map and you'll go, oh, is
some kind of New York City themed thing going on? Oh,
that's right, we have a subway. Never mind, that's right.
Speaker 1 (47:22):
Well, Michael, what a pleasure having you on the show.
Speaker 4 (47:26):
Thank you, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (47:27):
Where can people find you follow you and find out
more about Papa Bear.
Speaker 4 (47:33):
Yeah, I refrained from name dropping it so far, but
I'm working on a film called Papa Bear based on
the hilarious point a true story of when my dad
came out as a gay furry when I was seventeen.
Fun fact, his real persona is cyberbar and cybernetically Enhanced Bear.
But as screenwriters, we thought that was like a hat
(47:54):
on a hat, like real life. That's too many elements, right.
Speaker 1 (47:58):
No one's going to believe that.
Speaker 4 (48:00):
But the goal beyond just exploding some myths about furry
fandom and having an actually positive representation of that community.
It's not a niche movie only for first it's like
a poignant coming of age comedy. We're inspired by stuff
like eighth grade Ladybird Book, smart stuff like that. If
you like those, if you like our work at Cracked
by Us, I mean me and ab Eperson, who sort
(48:23):
of like forged the look of Cracked videos all the
way from the scrappy stuff to the high value stuff,
and we're trying to do it again. Oh also, we
have a pre existing movie called Kill Me Now, which
you could watch in its entirety on YouTube and I
only mention that because if all those things make you go,
oh yeah, these guys could make a movie. This looks good.
Speaker 1 (48:43):
I've made one.
Speaker 4 (48:44):
Yeah, go check us out at seed and spark dot com,
slash fund, slash Papa hyphen Bear and learn all about
the project. At the lowest tier, you can just give
us like fifteen bucks and it's just like buying a ticket.
Right when the movie's done, we'll send it to you
to watch and then it goes up from there. Or
you can follow me on Twitter at swim Underscore Corp.
(49:05):
And I'll keep you apprized.
Speaker 1 (49:08):
Yeah, well, that link will be in the show notes,
so you just like open the damn app that you're
listening to it.
Speaker 4 (49:19):
I wonder what the click through is on people who
read the show notes in their app and click a link.
Speaker 1 (49:24):
Yeah, it's unbelievably high. Is there a work of media
that you've been enjoying?
Speaker 4 (49:33):
Oh? Media? Oh, I will say I wanted to say
this in Act one, but I didn't find a good
spot to slip it in. But I think Coomer Comber,
whoever we were talking about the pundit in Act one,
is still doing good work from his point of view
in the sense that it is a marketing thing. It's
just about repetition. It's the Coca Cola version of it
(49:53):
doesn't matter if the follow through is and it's not true.
And here's why you said it a thousand times. And
that leads me to a piece of media I'm liking,
which is Foundation. I'm a big hard sci fi nerd.
If you are as well, and if you watch the
expanse and you're like, this is good but not scratching
that itch of like very intellectual sci fi, Foundation is
(50:15):
super good. And there's a character named Empire in that
who says the line related to this, which is they're like,
but that's not true, and he's like, but we'll just
have every galactic news source repeat it until the error
is made of it and there's nothing else to breathe.
Speaker 1 (50:33):
Good luck, Foundation, good wow, Miles. Where can people find you?
Is their work? Amedia, you've been enjoying h Man.
Speaker 2 (50:41):
You can find me on Twitter, Instagram, and I haven't
posted it anyway at Miles of Gray. If there's ad symbols,
as I usually say, follow Jack and nine on our
basketball podcast, Miles and Jack on mav Matt Lusty's where
you can hear at least we're gonna recap Game one
Western Conference Finals by the next episode and also check
me out. On four twenty d fiance was Sophia Alexandra
(51:04):
where we talk about ninety day and love is blind
but really high if that's if that makes it any
different for you. This is a tweet from ify at
Iffy wady Way. He just quoted someone took a picture
of like a Mickey Mouse thing with like the Viewmaster
Mickey Mouse, you know toy and he put ah, yes,
dissociation training wheels.
Speaker 4 (51:25):
Those were the day amazing.
Speaker 1 (51:27):
Yeah, man, the amount of time.
Speaker 2 (51:29):
I remember there was one I had of just like
California landmarks and I would just look at the Golden
Gate like I would lay on my back, just look
into the sun and just tell your.
Speaker 4 (51:39):
Parents are screaming at each other in the back. Yeah, yeah,
just seagulls, that's all.
Speaker 1 (51:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (51:45):
I never loved you, and I'm like click and I'm
at the Golden Gate.
Speaker 4 (51:48):
Bre I just saw that, dude, and Tim Medows and
Carl tired to improv. They're fantastic if you Yeah, what
a crew tweet.
Speaker 1 (51:57):
I've been enjoying. Furbie Hancock tweeted process fud was literally
designed for you to eat. Organic is just some crap
they found on the ground somewhere, just good, good nutrition advice.
But I think that is how my brain worked for
large portion of my adult life. I was like, well,
the scientists have approved this with all their technology. You
(52:18):
can find me on Twitter at Jack underscore O Brian.

as well as a song that we think you might enjoy. Miles,
what is a song that you think people might enjoy?
Speaker 2 (52:42):
I think you know, since we were talking about just
rapping bars and things like that, Bars Simpson is the
track that we're going to go out on by Sunny
Jim m F Doom Jay Electronica.
Speaker 1 (52:53):
Just a great, good, good old rap song.
Speaker 2 (52:56):
But I just love I love when anyone makes a
Simpson's reference, and like the album art is fantastic. It's
like a Homer just like on his back drunk and
the album is called White Girl Wasted. But anyway, check
out this track, Bars Simpson, Sunny, Jim MF, Doom Jay, Electronica,
put it through your speakers well.
