Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of I
have a very specific set of trends. Particular set doesn't matter.
Who cares, doesn't got it? I want courtesy if snarf
youla on the discord. My name is Jacko Brand. That
over there is mister Miles. You're exactly say, this is
(00:24):
the trending episode that we record Wednesday morning. Now, Yeah,
ten forty on the Pacific coast. We're doing it right
on the coast, overlooking some waves. Some surfers. Oh wow,
look at that guy. Whoa look at that? Cook get slammed.
You know what I'm saying, Hey, Shot, look you watch that?
(00:45):
You look at that account? Cook? I mean you told
me about it? Yeah, I mean it's watching people eat
shit on the surfboard. Is watching people eat shit generally
is just the purest form of shot in front. I
think you could. It definitely comes from the dark part
of my heart knowe that like knows that that would
be me if I ever tried that ship, And so
(01:06):
I extra hard. You're cautious enough that you're not going
to be like, let me try and just like try
to surf like a ten foot wave with no experience
like some of these people just get really gasous, bent
over backwards. Other guys are just novice surfers who are waiting.
They're in over their heads literally. Yeah yeah, I'm just
like a loser. Didn't didn't know what he was doing
(01:28):
on that one. Check us out real turned around. Anyways,
let's tell the people what's trending. Yeah did I say
my name is Jack? That's my mister. Yeah you did.
Do you hit your head surfing again? Yeah? You said that.
I did. When I was back east, I got smashed
into body surfing, and uh I looked cool doing it.
(01:53):
So every year, I feel like every time you come
back from the ocean there out there, you're like, man,
I got sam got drived into the floor of the
ocean by the wave. Yeah. I think I've told this
story thirty times, but there's no way to know, because
I mean, I will have no short term memory. I'm
your work life partner, and I go through it goes again.
(02:16):
He got smurfing, all right? Donald Trump went out to eat.
That's big news. He made the rare move of going
out to a restaurant. I don't think he's ever done
this before, but I think that was the point. He
went out to prodect the fixed crime in Washington, d C.
With his you know, national Guard takeover, and uh yeah,
(02:39):
I guess it's like three minutes from the White House.
Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak and stone Crab is as the
same as Joe's Stone Crab that they have in like Florida,
that's like the famous one. What no idea, Absolutely no idea.
The inside looks like a place that it said prime
steak and seafood, like just like the wooden wood, wood walls,
(03:01):
wood paneled walls. A bunch of white people who were
probably so excited to be near Donald Trump, and they
got those little knife blade things that they scooped the
crumbs off for you. Oh man, real steakhout ship. I
hate going to it, like the time where you go
(03:22):
to like a fancy restaurant where they're like like a
white tablecloth restaurant doing too much. Well not just that,
I eat like a fucking slob, so like yeah, by
the time they come on, my bro, look, it's stained
to hell. There's so many crumbs. Like let's not, let's
not act like this is getting cleaner right now. This
is gonna look like a murder scene here. Pretty soon,
So let's let's quit. We've only had How did you
(03:46):
get someone? The blood everywhere this brown come from? I
bit my finger. I was so hungry, so fast that
you bite your fingers? Yeah, recently humiliated. It was my
own lips so often, But biting your own finger is
a whole new level of I'm chomping. I don't care
(04:08):
what gets in there. It's chomp city. I did it
so bad, like three weeks ago, actually eating like the
last bit of a taco, or like I was like,
I put the whole thing in your mouth before closed mouth,
and I was like, and I just caught my index finger.
And anyway, you didn't say dickhead. Didn't get that finger
(04:33):
out of there, aren't we? That is My kids just
finally watched Jurassic Park, and the thing they can't get
over is just the nedrick. You didn't say the magic word.
That's just going off in our house right now. Do
they like the night vision goggles? That was my favorite thing? No,
I don't think at all. You know why, It's because
(04:53):
these kids have too much fucking technology around them. They're
like whatever, they had to take off their own night
vision goggles. Watch the movie. We're all just walking around
our house with fucking night vision goggles. It's so big
and you know, just cumbersome. God are they heavy? Then
they're expensive? Put them back now. They had already seen
(05:15):
night vision goggles and sounds of lambs, so they weren't
as impressed anyways. Nothing says man to the people quite
like grabbing a one hundred and eight dollars steak. Oh incidentally,
the restaurant's website notes that they've added a three point
five percent surcharge to all checks as a way to
offset rising costs off foot Wow. Right, that's crazy. Did
(05:38):
say it like that on the media. They're clearly making
a reference to offset. Wow. But that yeah, that's a
new thing that I guess is happening. Just no specific
references to what's causing these costs to rise. It certainly
not in a restaurant where Donald Trump would go eat.
But they got to be upfront. They're like, bok, bro,
(06:00):
we got to charge you this tariff tax on top
of the on top of the corporate green tax. It's
it is what it is. Yeah. I saw like a
clip of him arriving at the restaurant and the press
was there, and immediately someone was like, was that your
signature on the Epsteine birthday card? He's absolutely not. It's
I never I don't even talk like that. Anyone knows
(06:21):
who I don't even never speak like that. You've seen
my playwriting, you know that I my dialogue is much
more rettacked than that. It's not a meandering You went
to the premiere of my One man Off Broadway show
in nineteen eighty seven. You know where I'm at as
a play, right, So yeah, anyway, Yeah, he enjoyed it.
(06:41):
He enjoyed it. For a second, it looked like, yeah,
he can't. He showed up. He proudly proclaimed that there's
virtually no crime. Now tease the announcement of the next
city He'll be invading as if it's like a fun
contest and not a military station. Yeah. Yeah. And then
protesters from the of this group Code Pink confronted Trump's
(07:02):
dinner party, channing free Palestine. Trump is the hitler of
our time, Free Free DC, Free DC, Free Palestine. Trump
is a hitler of our time. Pretty good. The video
is I'm I just can't believe that you could be
within uh loogie distance of Donald Trump. It was definitely
(07:25):
luguible Oh it was lugubrious, you know, truly. Uh this
clip though, it is wild to just see him have
to like endure this too because by their ass he
pulls up right to this one and then at a
certain point he's like had it. He's like, get him out,
get him out, get him out of here. He sees
(07:45):
he's like, oh look his face. Oh he's given like
a smug smile. He's pointing, he's we get him out.
It is weird that he had to tell the Secret
Service to get them out. They were like, I don't know,
they kind of got bars, mister president. We're gonna kind
of let them ride with them. I mean, I mean
(08:05):
they are aligned with like pro Russian talking points, so
maybe they are on our side, mister president. I don't
like kind of a weird relationship to Russia. Yeah, Like
Lena Luna, who's I guess a mega loyalist claim the
Secret Service is compromised needs to be looked into because
of like how close they got, uh Anna, Paulina Luna
(08:28):
is the one who's like America is fucking gay and
then like us like a flamethrower, Like that's like her,
that's her whole thing there are multiple of those people,
I believe. I mean, when you have no imagination and
no actual like values of your own and you just
have to like become like this simulated version of a
(08:48):
mega person's Like I think I just scream racist, homophobic
stuff with a gun, yes, and then I become a
congress person and there you are, there you are. It
does feel like a fun new direction for them to
just be like, we can't trust the Secret Service when
he goes out into the streets. I mean, he definitely
needs to go out into the streets to prove that
(09:10):
he won the war on DC crime. And also we
can't he can't bring the Secret Service because they're in
on it with the bad guys. I'm just saying that's
a fun direction I made them do explore. I'm so
glad as somebody who has family in Washington, DC and
I go there frequently to see my in laws. I'm
being I don't know, if you've been around the White House.
(09:32):
It is so unsafe in the area around the White House.
It's unbelievably unsafe. And I'm pretty sure this restaurant is
a fucking block away from there. Yeah, and you're using
that place in proximity to the fucking White House to
be like and it's all safe now, motherfucker was. There
was never a fucking problem except for the one that
(09:53):
you created. But yeah, I'm glad to see. Honestly, it
was really nice to see how uncomfortable he was because
usually when people boo, they're like at least seventy feet away. Yeah. Yeah.
When he get him out, when he had to gesture,
I was like, oh, you have had it. But yeah,
I know how they got so close, Like people were like,
(10:13):
how did they know he was going to be there?
Like any place that he's going has to undergo secret
service like security sweeps for twenty four hours beforehand, so
like it's it's huge. See how they like they didn't
just like pop out, like to decide to pop out
over for a quick bite to eat. No, it's well,
it's because they have to be so ignorant of everything.
(10:34):
They don't even they're not even aware of just general
security protocols for moving the president around, Right, how did
they know? I don't know what was like the seven
hundred thousand armed cars that are parked outside too, right,
I do wonder like is he trying to provoke something like, now,
all of a sudden, he's like going out into the streets, Like,
do I just he would put self at risk like that,
(10:59):
He wouldn't. But at the same time, I do feel
like he's got the like god complex after the assassination attempt,
where he's just like, I'm fucking invisible a dance between bullets, bitch, Yeah,
I think. I mean, I don't know if he's he
could be. Maybe that's just like an added bonus, but
I definitely see like the senile, old powerful man thing
where they're like, sir, we can't go. He's like, I
(11:21):
want to go for a walk to the restaurant now,
and they're like fuck yeah. Yeah. Alternately, it could be
that the military occupation was just so he can feel
comfortable enough to go to a seafood restaurant. The whole
thing was just that. Yeah, that's also that's also potentially
a thing. Laura Lumer, though, blamed Humas for them being there,
(11:42):
which I thought was very clever. Their reach knows no bounds.
Hamas has compromised the minds of white women in Washington,
DC to now let's scream out free Palestine. All right,
let's take a quick break. We'll be right back and
(12:07):
we're back and let's speed run some ship. Do we
talk about the reaction to one battle after another? No,
the reaction that just they had a screening. Steven Spielberg
was like, the like interviewed Paul Thomas Anderson afterwards is
just like crazy glowing. A lot of like people who
saw it were like, oh, this is gonna win Best Picture.
(12:28):
Steven Spielber compared it to Doctor Strangelove what and was like,
this is like exactly the movie we need right now,
which I was also like just driving around LA they're
advertising it like it's a blockbuster. Have you noticed that?
It's like on bus I haven't seen any No, I
haven't seen any. Yeah, they have like bus stop signs
for the new this is the new Paul Thomas Anderson movie. Yeah,
(12:52):
with Leonardo DiCaprio was like a former revolutionary whose daughter
is kidnapped by a fascist cop play by Sean Penn.
But yeah, it seemed like it was just gonna be
like kind of an Awards baby thing, and like he's like,
you know, first of all, the first hour is like
jam packed with action. Like you're not normally an action director,
(13:12):
but it's like really cool uh huh, I will I
will just say the one like when I realized does
an action movie and they're like marketing it as such.
Like I was trying to think back of like Paul
Thomas Anderson action scenes and there's there is that firecracker
scene in Boogie Nights that's an action scene and that
shit is wild, like it is printed on my brain.
(13:34):
I mean even think about the donut shop shop robbery. Yeah,
the donut shop robbery also, Yeah, that's also like his
when he does violence, it's very like it's it's violent
and it's quick. Yeah, you know what I mean. The scene, uh,
there will be blood, There will be blood is all
very memorable. So if he's just doing like a straight
(13:54):
up action movie, which seems to be how they're marketing it,
that that could be interesting. I'm just saying I talk
a lot about Doctor Strangelove, and that seemed to be
the movie that it made Steven Spielberg, some guy named
Steven Spielberg think about after seeing him for the first time. Yeah,
part of me is like I'm very curious when someone
(14:15):
as well he is Steven Spielberg's like, this is the
exact kind of movie we need it. Yeah, proposing a
centrist solution that we can all get behind, right, but
I know, like the fact that it's based on Thomas Pincheon.
Novel also suggests that it's probably not going to be
not have like centrist politics. I don't. Can you imagine
(14:37):
he like completely alters the script and he's like, in
the end, I was mistaken for my revolutionary acts. What
a poor choice. I mean, all right, let's speed run
some media news. Yeah, CBS, which you know I had
to had to make some concessions to get that merger
done with Sky. Damn sweet blessing. That is behind them now.
(15:02):
You know they might have had to kill a couple
sixty minute stories, but that's Trump millions of dollars. Yeah,
you know that's behind them now. And okay. One of
the things they agreed to is to have a ambudsman
who is like sort of somebody who helps review issues,
like kind of an outsider who comes in and like objective.
(15:24):
I'm just comball in here. You guys have an issue.
This is what I'm here to do. So any journalistic
questions can go to this person. A lot of times,
it's just like somebody who's like Wanta Pulitzer, you know,
like has like incredible journalistic credentials, and they've gone with
a conservative think tank CEO. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(15:48):
yeah yeah yeah. So you have now a right wing
freak with no journalism background whatsoever, being the arbiter of
truth at CBS News. Wee. Yeah. The way they describe
it is like he will now report directly to the
President of Paramount and then quote any complaints deemed worthy
(16:08):
of attention. We passed along to Shell and Paramount's Chair
of TV Media, George Cheeks. Should the trio quote collectively
determine that such outreach is necessary, Weinstein, Shell and Cheeks
will address the complaint with the president and executive editor,
who will recommend and implement any necessary action staff sounds good.
Oh wow, no, notes, I mean you already had the
thing too, when like Christy nom was like they didn't
(16:29):
they altered my interview that I gave to ce me
it and didn't didn't do a wonder on your interview,
you mean, or it took out the parts where you're
just lying and saying absolutely libelous nonsense, you know, because
you know they are sure. So yeah, this bodes well
for everybody anyway, CBS now is cooked. TBS is compromised.
(16:52):
Fox News not compromised, thank god. Yeah. Fox. So there
was this is like one of those centric lib pipe
dreams that there was going to be a succession struggle
and Rupert Murdoch's kids were going to like take Fox
News over and like send it in a liberal direction,
(17:14):
stop being so evil, and uh, that is not happening.
They have officially decided that Lachlin Murdoch, who is I
think the eldest boy, uh, is going to take over
for his father. He's just like a conservative clone of
his dad. No no intrigue here. And then like the
(17:35):
other the other kids that even had even slightly different politics,
they just got bought out. Yeah, they just got bought out.
They're just like, as the Hollywood Reporter article put it,
they're over a billion dollars more liquid today than they
were before. Yeah. I was like, what what is the
success what's the right succession metaphor here? Because it's like
(17:56):
not Kendall or like a you know, I guess it
would be like a combination of Roman and Tom right
like right wing people who are just gonna keep it
going in the same direction because they knew no one
of their soul their dad would want. Yeah, so now
yeah both CBS, Paramount Fox, twentieth century Fox, MSG, all
(18:18):
of its properties are all being run by the billionaire
children of billionaires, which, in my experience, the most functionally
incompetent humans, just emotionally and intellectually that you could. I
think that's unfair to tell us just for somebody who
knows zero struggle knows does not no oppression of any
(18:40):
kind does not, No struggle in any way would make
a bad boss. I just think they're looking at things
differently in a way that I just can't. Did you
ever just meet like really rich kids, like generationally like
really wealthy kids, like some of the strangest funny people
I've ever encountered. Man, there they don't live on the
(19:01):
same planet. No, you know, like because you like meeting
an alien and a lot of kids like they there's
a certain level of wealth, Like because I went to
school with like celebrity like the kids of celebrities and stuff,
and some were like normal, then it's like the parents
will have more money, were more popping. Like these kids
had zero life skills right at all, Like they they
(19:21):
wouldn't know how to call the city to get trapped.
Like they don't know how to do like anything except
to consume. Yeah, that's all they know, right, and to
like scream and call their mom like a bitch in
front of us and be like, oh shit, dude, you
get away with that. He's like, yeah, dude, fuck that. Anyway,
you want a Nintendo sixty four to like five. They
(19:44):
love Harem pants for some reason. Experience anyway, you know. Yeah,
I was in a lot as a kid. Yeah, no,
just New York City. Just went to my friend was like, yeah,
I went to like prep school with this kid. We're
going to go to his place and kid hair and
pants on. Oh yeah, and like just the strangest and
like the strangest vibes ever, you know, like, what's that
(20:10):
congruous vibes that are coming together in this person? Because
it's true, I do what I want vibes. Yeah, exactly.
I'll wear hair and pants with a Davy Crockett hat
and a shirt that says cunt on the front. Literally,
there's nothing anyone could or would do about it. The
good news is so Larry Ellison, the father of the
(20:32):
guy who David Ellison, is the CEO of Sky dance
just took over as the richest man in the world.
Oh hell yeah. So he's the founder of Oracle. Uh.
And Oracle just had a strong earnings report Tuesday because
(20:52):
they are like involved in a lot of people are
using their resources because of AI and so I had
a strong earnings report. And now his wealth jumped by
one hundred and one billion dollars in a single day.
So now he has three hundred and ninety three billion dollars,
(21:13):
which put him ahead of Elon Musk. Hell yeah, this
is this is the future. We get to just like
root for which billionaire we like, yes, yes, yes, yes,
And they're all fascists right exactly had a fucking single
one of them as a fucking soul. But hey, you
don't get three hundred and ninety three billion having a
fucking heart do you? Less? Good earnings report news? And
(21:37):
we do love to talk about earnings reports. I got
to talk about it. Guys. Apple launched their thinnest iPhone ever,
and uh, everybody's like, where is everything, Like where's all
the other stuff that would be like fun or cool
to use? Now think you know how thin this is.
It's as thin as another cell phone would be oh
(22:00):
what else. It's just really thin and there's there's some
new watches, but like this one's so fucking thin. Yeah,
they had their annual like look at the new shit
we got event in Cooper Tino yesterday. Shit. I looked
at some of the shit. It's like, yeah, okay, there's
a new like they added a they went up one
number on the iPhone to now seventeen. But I'm oh,
(22:23):
and the back looks different on the pro and I'm like, dude,
the cameras have been fucking really good for ages now,
I don't know what. Back when, like they were just
the only one doing it or still coasting off of
like the fact that they had done it. And yeah,
now people are just like, I don't know, man, because
everyone just kind of have us hooked. Yeah, and everyone says,
y'all haven't done shit since the iPad. Realistically, like what
(22:46):
are we talking about? I mean, like, sure, air pods,
but that's not really that remarkable, given you know, the
technology is so pervasive. But yeah, the big thing was,
like this stock price went down because all these investors
were not pleased with the lack of AI developed up
mins Uh, you barely mentioned AI like three times per paragraph,
which is what we demand at this point in any
(23:08):
earnings call. Uh so, yeah, we're going to be on
this one. We're cool. We're cool in our jets on
Apple folks. That's what we're gonna tell our That's we're
gonna tell our clients. Uh But again, I mean, it's
like it's just so funny how Wall Streem moves, like
there's always some buzzword thing that everyone's like that public
traded company has to embrace, like metaverse, but tase, how
(23:30):
do we show people like we're modern and these things
end up becoming absolute zeros in terms of like use cases.
And now it's AI, so you have to utter the
words AI for the investors to be like, yes, okay,
you figured it out because you're you're helping prop up
the other stocks I own and like Nvidio and things
like that, and it seems like the AI thing is
(23:51):
like it's being used. That's the one thing that you
can say for like, that's what Oracle like Oracle, It's not.
It's not that Oracle was like and look at this
amazing using like new interface or you know, something that
we can do with AI. It's just like a lot
of people are using AI. AI consumes incredible amount of
resources and so they need us and that those are
(24:13):
the things that are like making people a lot of
money right now, it's not anything that's being done by
AI yet. No, no, no, no no, because as we've seen,
none of these companies are profitable and they're all they're
like they're doing like the same thing like Elon wouldude like,
oh my god, this next one's like it gonna be
so sick, dude. It's like, I mean, it's like people
are going to fucking hurt themselves. It's so good, like
(24:35):
even more than the last one that was causing people
to harm themselves. Right all right? Uh, Finally Israel bombed
Doha as MOSS leaders met to consider a ceasefire proposal. Weird.
So yeah, just complete mask off as has been the case,
no interest in the ceasefire, no interest in a de escalation.
(24:58):
Israel can now add Hutter to the list of sovereign
nations it is attacked without justification. What a year for Israel. Huh. Yeah,
and bombed the capitol, killing six and masa that none
of their targeted leadership was killed. So who would the
six people be? Just just other people? Probably. I mean
(25:19):
whatever that Israel doesn't care. They're gonna bomb whoever the
fuck they want to, because again, they're all in on
this and we're gonna get him the bombs, baby, dude.
There was this thing because there's like the the Gaza
Humanitarian Foundation is like that thing that's like the US,
like is being backed by the US and stuff, and
like these where people are getting killed constantly trying to
get aid from there was a fucking report I just
(25:42):
saw that they are like American anti Islamic biker gang
members who are running security at these aid sites in Gaza.
In Gaza like this the Infidel's biker gang, like they're
like they're they're like we found at least nine of
these people are working security there, right, and like the
(26:03):
Humanitarian Foundations like whatever they do with their hobbies or
affiliates has nothing to do with this. Like they are
in a hate group, right, but they call themselves a
biker gang, and you maybe just like, well, I don't know,
they're in a biker gang. Oh they're an anti Islamic
biker gang. I don't know. Look, they're they're really good
at shooting guns. Yeah, very very just wacky shit happening. Yeah,
(26:25):
this just seems to be the I mean, so again,
this is like, you know, a war crime, much as
the you know, US bombing of that boat of alleged
drug smugglers was illegal. They were civilians. The New York
Times is now reporting that that boat had turned around,
was like, oh, there, we seem to be being tracked.
(26:47):
We're turning around. So like the entire argument that they
were making, which was like very shaky in the first place,
didn't matter. Even if they were a boat with rugs on.
It is not a fucking missile, right. But Trump announced
the strike, saying it took place in international waters, it
killed eleven people who he said were transporting drugs headed
(27:10):
to the United States, and we're part of Venezuelan gang.
And he still no evidence to support those assertions other
than he said we have tapes of them speaking. And yeah,
so legal specialists were like, you know, that's not an argument.
And then even if you accept the premise for the
(27:31):
sake of argument, if the boat had already turned away,
that would further undermine a already are an argument that
like doesn't even begin to make sense in a court
of law. So yeah, there's that there's there's that. Did
you also see the North Korean Oh my god, the
(27:51):
Seal Team's Sale Team SIST operation, Yes, where they were
trying to like implan a listening device on North Korean soil.
Seal Team six, like you know, did a beach landing,
and a boat of North Korean fishermen like arrived to
see what was going on, presumably being like, oh, do
(28:13):
these people have a good place to catch shellfish? Which
is what they were going for, and Seal Team six,
instead of like you know, zip tying them or doing
whatever the military would do in a movie, proceeded to
kill them all. Yeah, shoot them all and then puncture
their lungs with knives so that their bodies would think
so they wouldn't be discovered right away. Yeah, like yeah, yeah,
(28:35):
this is I mean, what the fuck whatever? I mean,
Like every time I'm like this, this is shit that
ends administrations usually, right, Yeah, I mean, and this is
And by the way, the person who told this story,
the sources who told this story did so not because
they're like, this is a really crazy story that happened
(28:57):
during the Trump administration. They did it like on a
they said. Their decision to provide details was out of
concern that the US military special operations failures are often
hidden by the government secrecy. So like, this is what
is happening on a regular basis, And oh sure, I
mean it's I just yeah, I think more and more
we're getting like a clearer picture of what Like there's
(29:18):
that new book, the Fort Bragg Cartel that depicts these
you know, military operator teams that like all they do
is just like go around storm different places in the
name of American Empire and just murder civilians. Like yeah,
it's I was talking when you were out and we
had the blank Check guys on. I was talking about
(29:39):
how there's not like the least depicted wars in like movies.
I feel like the one that I have the least
clear image of from movies are the wars that are
like happening that have been happening for the past twenty
five years. And the only ones that have like broken
through are like zero Dark thirty, the Hurt Lotsucker American Sniper,
(30:02):
and like those are ones where they like had to
bend it to be like this is trying to kill
Bin Laden. Yeah right, exactly. Just do a memoir from
a guy who's like lying about everything. But yeah, I
think more and more we're getting a clear idea that
I just I don't think the general public wants to
admit because they're just like, I don't know our respond
(30:24):
at least with Vietnam, there were like protests. With this,
it's just like, yeah, I don't know, man, we don't
like to think about it. Yeah. Well, I mean the
American people are fed a steady diet of like these
people are our warrior angel people. Yeah, and I think
it takes a long time for that kind of bullshit
to melt away, to kind of see like, no, these
are usually like poor people in the US that are
(30:44):
coerced into joining the military to prop up the empire.
And it's I don't know what we're getting in return,
because it only seems like bad shit constantly. That shit,
all right, that is what is trending this afternoon. We're
back tomorrow with a whole ass episode of the show.
Until then, be kind to each other, be kind to yourselves,
get your vaccines where you still can't get your flu shots,
(31:07):
don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we will talk
to you all tomorrow. Bye bye. The Daily Zeitgeist is

Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of I
have a very specific set of trends. Particular set doesn't matter.
Who cares, doesn't got it? I want courtesy if snarf
youla on the discord. My name is Jacko Brand. That
over there is mister Miles. You're exactly say, this is
(00:24):
the trending episode that we record Wednesday morning. Now, Yeah,
ten forty on the Pacific coast. We're doing it right
on the coast, overlooking some waves. Some surfers. Oh wow,
look at that guy. Whoa look at that? Cook get slammed.
You know what I'm saying, Hey, Shot, look you watch that?
(00:45):
You look at that account? Cook? I mean you told
me about it? Yeah, I mean it's watching people eat
shit on the surfboard. Is watching people eat shit generally
is just the purest form of shot in front. I
think you could. It definitely comes from the dark part
of my heart knowe that like knows that that would
be me if I ever tried that ship, And so
(01:06):
I extra hard. You're cautious enough that you're not going
to be like, let me try and just like try
to surf like a ten foot wave with no experience
like some of these people just get really gasous, bent
over backwards. Other guys are just novice surfers who are waiting.
They're in over their heads literally. Yeah yeah, I'm just
like a loser. Didn't didn't know what he was doing
(01:28):
on that one. Check us out real turned around. Anyways,
let's tell the people what's trending. Yeah did I say
my name is Jack? That's my mister. Yeah you did.
Do you hit your head surfing again? Yeah? You said that.
I did. When I was back east, I got smashed
into body surfing, and uh I looked cool doing it.
(01:53):
So every year, I feel like every time you come
back from the ocean there out there, you're like, man,
I got sam got drived into the floor of the
ocean by the wave. Yeah. I think I've told this
story thirty times, but there's no way to know, because
I mean, I will have no short term memory. I'm
your work life partner, and I go through it goes again.
(02:16):
He got smurfing, all right? Donald Trump went out to eat.
That's big news. He made the rare move of going
out to a restaurant. I don't think he's ever done
this before, but I think that was the point. He
went out to prodect the fixed crime in Washington, d C.
With his you know, national Guard takeover, and uh yeah,
(02:39):
I guess it's like three minutes from the White House.
Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak and stone Crab is as the
same as Joe's Stone Crab that they have in like Florida,
that's like the famous one. What no idea, Absolutely no idea.
The inside looks like a place that it said prime
steak and seafood, like just like the wooden wood, wood walls,
(03:01):
wood paneled walls. A bunch of white people who were
probably so excited to be near Donald Trump, and they
got those little knife blade things that they scooped the
crumbs off for you. Oh man, real steakhout ship. I
hate going to it, like the time where you go
(03:22):
to like a fancy restaurant where they're like like a
white tablecloth restaurant doing too much. Well not just that,
I eat like a fucking slob, so like yeah, by
the time they come on, my bro, look, it's stained
to hell. There's so many crumbs. Like let's not, let's
not act like this is getting cleaner right now. This
is gonna look like a murder scene here. Pretty soon,
So let's let's quit. We've only had How did you
(03:46):
get someone? The blood everywhere this brown come from? I
bit my finger. I was so hungry, so fast that
you bite your fingers? Yeah, recently humiliated. It was my
own lips so often, But biting your own finger is
a whole new level of I'm chomping. I don't care
(04:08):
what gets in there. It's chomp city. I did it
so bad, like three weeks ago, actually eating like the
last bit of a taco, or like I was like,
I put the whole thing in your mouth before closed mouth,
and I was like, and I just caught my index finger.
And anyway, you didn't say dickhead. Didn't get that finger
(04:33):
out of there, aren't we? That is My kids just
finally watched Jurassic Park, and the thing they can't get
over is just the nedrick. You didn't say the magic word.
That's just going off in our house right now. Do
they like the night vision goggles? That was my favorite thing? No,
I don't think at all. You know why, It's because
(04:53):
these kids have too much fucking technology around them. They're
like whatever, they had to take off their own night
vision goggles. Watch the movie. We're all just walking around
our house with fucking night vision goggles. It's so big
and you know, just cumbersome. God are they heavy? Then
they're expensive? Put them back now. They had already seen
(05:15):
night vision goggles and sounds of lambs, so they weren't
as impressed anyways. Nothing says man to the people quite
like grabbing a one hundred and eight dollars steak. Oh incidentally,
the restaurant's website notes that they've added a three point
five percent surcharge to all checks as a way to
offset rising costs off foot Wow. Right, that's crazy. Did
(05:38):
say it like that on the media. They're clearly making
a reference to offset. Wow. But that yeah, that's a
new thing that I guess is happening. Just no specific
references to what's causing these costs to rise. It certainly
not in a restaurant where Donald Trump would go eat.
But they got to be upfront. They're like, bok, bro,
(06:00):
we got to charge you this tariff tax on top
of the on top of the corporate green tax. It's
it is what it is. Yeah. I saw like a
clip of him arriving at the restaurant and the press
was there, and immediately someone was like, was that your
signature on the Epsteine birthday card? He's absolutely not. It's
I never I don't even talk like that. Anyone knows
(06:21):
who I don't even never speak like that. You've seen
my playwriting, you know that I my dialogue is much
more rettacked than that. It's not a meandering You went
to the premiere of my One man Off Broadway show
in nineteen eighty seven. You know where I'm at as
a play, right, So yeah, anyway, Yeah, he enjoyed it.
(06:41):
He enjoyed it. For a second, it looked like, yeah,
he can't. He showed up. He proudly proclaimed that there's
virtually no crime. Now tease the announcement of the next
city He'll be invading as if it's like a fun
contest and not a military station. Yeah. Yeah. And then
protesters from the of this group Code Pink confronted Trump's
(07:02):
dinner party, channing free Palestine. Trump is the hitler of
our time, Free Free DC, Free DC, Free Palestine. Trump
is a hitler of our time. Pretty good. The video
is I'm I just can't believe that you could be
within uh loogie distance of Donald Trump. It was definitely
(07:25):
luguible Oh it was lugubrious, you know, truly. Uh this
clip though, it is wild to just see him have
to like endure this too because by their ass he
pulls up right to this one and then at a
certain point he's like had it. He's like, get him out,
get him out, get him out of here. He sees
(07:45):
he's like, oh look his face. Oh he's given like
a smug smile. He's pointing, he's we get him out.
It is weird that he had to tell the Secret
Service to get them out. They were like, I don't know,
they kind of got bars, mister president. We're gonna kind
of let them ride with them. I mean, I mean
(08:05):
they are aligned with like pro Russian talking points, so
maybe they are on our side, mister president. I don't
like kind of a weird relationship to Russia. Yeah, Like
Lena Luna, who's I guess a mega loyalist claim the
Secret Service is compromised needs to be looked into because
of like how close they got, uh Anna, Paulina Luna
(08:28):
is the one who's like America is fucking gay and
then like us like a flamethrower, Like that's like her,
that's her whole thing there are multiple of those people,
I believe. I mean, when you have no imagination and
no actual like values of your own and you just
have to like become like this simulated version of a
(08:48):
mega person's Like I think I just scream racist, homophobic
stuff with a gun, yes, and then I become a
congress person and there you are, there you are. It
does feel like a fun new direction for them to
just be like, we can't trust the Secret Service when
he goes out into the streets. I mean, he definitely
needs to go out into the streets to prove that
(09:10):
he won the war on DC crime. And also we
can't he can't bring the Secret Service because they're in
on it with the bad guys. I'm just saying that's
a fun direction I made them do explore. I'm so
glad as somebody who has family in Washington, DC and
I go there frequently to see my in laws. I'm
being I don't know, if you've been around the White House.
(09:32):
It is so unsafe in the area around the White House.
It's unbelievably unsafe. And I'm pretty sure this restaurant is
a fucking block away from there. Yeah, and you're using
that place in proximity to the fucking White House to
be like and it's all safe now, motherfucker was. There
was never a fucking problem except for the one that
(09:53):
you created. But yeah, I'm glad to see. Honestly, it
was really nice to see how uncomfortable he was because
usually when people boo, they're like at least seventy feet away. Yeah. Yeah.
When he get him out, when he had to gesture,
I was like, oh, you have had it. But yeah,
I know how they got so close, Like people were like,
(10:13):
how did they know he was going to be there?
Like any place that he's going has to undergo secret
service like security sweeps for twenty four hours beforehand, so
like it's it's huge. See how they like they didn't
just like pop out, like to decide to pop out
over for a quick bite to eat. No, it's well,
it's because they have to be so ignorant of everything.
(10:34):
They don't even they're not even aware of just general
security protocols for moving the president around, Right, how did
they know? I don't know what was like the seven
hundred thousand armed cars that are parked outside too, right,
I do wonder like is he trying to provoke something like, now,
all of a sudden, he's like going out into the streets, Like,
do I just he would put self at risk like that,
(10:59):
He wouldn't. But at the same time, I do feel
like he's got the like god complex after the assassination attempt,
where he's just like, I'm fucking invisible a dance between bullets, bitch, Yeah,
I think. I mean, I don't know if he's he
could be. Maybe that's just like an added bonus, but
I definitely see like the senile, old powerful man thing
where they're like, sir, we can't go. He's like, I
(11:21):
want to go for a walk to the restaurant now,
and they're like fuck yeah. Yeah. Alternately, it could be
that the military occupation was just so he can feel
comfortable enough to go to a seafood restaurant. The whole
thing was just that. Yeah, that's also that's also potentially
a thing. Laura Lumer, though, blamed Humas for them being there,
(11:42):
which I thought was very clever. Their reach knows no bounds.
Hamas has compromised the minds of white women in Washington,
DC to now let's scream out free Palestine. All right,
let's take a quick break. We'll be right back and
(12:07):
we're back and let's speed run some ship. Do we
talk about the reaction to one battle after another? No,
the reaction that just they had a screening. Steven Spielberg
was like, the like interviewed Paul Thomas Anderson afterwards is
just like crazy glowing. A lot of like people who
saw it were like, oh, this is gonna win Best Picture.
(12:28):
Steven Spielber compared it to Doctor Strangelove what and was like,
this is like exactly the movie we need right now,
which I was also like just driving around LA they're
advertising it like it's a blockbuster. Have you noticed that?
It's like on bus I haven't seen any No, I
haven't seen any. Yeah, they have like bus stop signs
for the new this is the new Paul Thomas Anderson movie. Yeah,
(12:52):
with Leonardo DiCaprio was like a former revolutionary whose daughter
is kidnapped by a fascist cop play by Sean Penn.
But yeah, it seemed like it was just gonna be
like kind of an Awards baby thing, and like he's like,
you know, first of all, the first hour is like
jam packed with action. Like you're not normally an action director,
(13:12):
but it's like really cool uh huh, I will I
will just say the one like when I realized does
an action movie and they're like marketing it as such.
Like I was trying to think back of like Paul
Thomas Anderson action scenes and there's there is that firecracker
scene in Boogie Nights that's an action scene and that
shit is wild, like it is printed on my brain.
(13:34):
I mean even think about the donut shop shop robbery. Yeah,
the donut shop robbery also, Yeah, that's also like his
when he does violence, it's very like it's it's violent
and it's quick. Yeah, you know what I mean. The scene, uh,
there will be blood, There will be blood is all
very memorable. So if he's just doing like a straight
(13:54):
up action movie, which seems to be how they're marketing it,
that that could be interesting. I'm just saying I talk
a lot about Doctor Strangelove, and that seemed to be
the movie that it made Steven Spielberg, some guy named
Steven Spielberg think about after seeing him for the first time. Yeah,
part of me is like I'm very curious when someone
(14:15):
as well he is Steven Spielberg's like, this is the
exact kind of movie we need it. Yeah, proposing a
centrist solution that we can all get behind, right, but
I know, like the fact that it's based on Thomas Pincheon.
Novel also suggests that it's probably not going to be
not have like centrist politics. I don't. Can you imagine
(14:37):
he like completely alters the script and he's like, in
the end, I was mistaken for my revolutionary acts. What
a poor choice. I mean, all right, let's speed run
some media news. Yeah, CBS, which you know I had
to had to make some concessions to get that merger
done with Sky. Damn sweet blessing. That is behind them now.
(15:02):
You know they might have had to kill a couple
sixty minute stories, but that's Trump millions of dollars. Yeah,
you know that's behind them now. And okay. One of
the things they agreed to is to have a ambudsman
who is like sort of somebody who helps review issues,
like kind of an outsider who comes in and like objective.
(15:24):
I'm just comball in here. You guys have an issue.
This is what I'm here to do. So any journalistic
questions can go to this person. A lot of times,
it's just like somebody who's like Wanta Pulitzer, you know,
like has like incredible journalistic credentials, and they've gone with
a conservative think tank CEO. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(15:48):
yeah yeah yeah. So you have now a right wing
freak with no journalism background whatsoever, being the arbiter of
truth at CBS News. Wee. Yeah. The way they describe
it is like he will now report directly to the
President of Paramount and then quote any complaints deemed worthy
(16:08):
of attention. We passed along to Shell and Paramount's Chair
of TV Media, George Cheeks. Should the trio quote collectively
determine that such outreach is necessary, Weinstein, Shell and Cheeks
will address the complaint with the president and executive editor,
who will recommend and implement any necessary action staff sounds good.
Oh wow, no, notes, I mean you already had the
thing too, when like Christy nom was like they didn't
(16:29):
they altered my interview that I gave to ce me
it and didn't didn't do a wonder on your interview,
you mean, or it took out the parts where you're
just lying and saying absolutely libelous nonsense, you know, because
you know they are sure. So yeah, this bodes well
for everybody anyway, CBS now is cooked. TBS is compromised.
(16:52):
Fox News not compromised, thank god. Yeah. Fox. So there
was this is like one of those centric lib pipe
dreams that there was going to be a succession struggle
and Rupert Murdoch's kids were going to like take Fox
News over and like send it in a liberal direction,
(17:14):
stop being so evil, and uh, that is not happening.
They have officially decided that Lachlin Murdoch, who is I
think the eldest boy, uh, is going to take over
for his father. He's just like a conservative clone of
his dad. No no intrigue here. And then like the
(17:35):
other the other kids that even had even slightly different politics,
they just got bought out. Yeah, they just got bought out.
They're just like, as the Hollywood Reporter article put it,
they're over a billion dollars more liquid today than they
were before. Yeah. I was like, what what is the
success what's the right succession metaphor here? Because it's like
(17:56):
not Kendall or like a you know, I guess it
would be like a combination of Roman and Tom right
like right wing people who are just gonna keep it
going in the same direction because they knew no one
of their soul their dad would want. Yeah, so now
yeah both CBS, Paramount Fox, twentieth century Fox, MSG, all
(18:18):
of its properties are all being run by the billionaire
children of billionaires, which, in my experience, the most functionally
incompetent humans, just emotionally and intellectually that you could. I
think that's unfair to tell us just for somebody who
knows zero struggle knows does not no oppression of any
(18:40):
kind does not, No struggle in any way would make
a bad boss. I just think they're looking at things
differently in a way that I just can't. Did you
ever just meet like really rich kids, like generationally like
really wealthy kids, like some of the strangest funny people
I've ever encountered. Man, there they don't live on the
(19:01):
same planet. No, you know, like because you like meeting
an alien and a lot of kids like they there's
a certain level of wealth, Like because I went to
school with like celebrity like the kids of celebrities and stuff,
and some were like normal, then it's like the parents
will have more money, were more popping. Like these kids
had zero life skills right at all, Like they they
(19:21):
wouldn't know how to call the city to get trapped.
Like they don't know how to do like anything except
to consume. Yeah, that's all they know, right, and to
like scream and call their mom like a bitch in
front of us and be like, oh shit, dude, you
get away with that. He's like, yeah, dude, fuck that. Anyway,
you want a Nintendo sixty four to like five. They
(19:44):
love Harem pants for some reason. Experience anyway, you know. Yeah,
I was in a lot as a kid. Yeah, no,
just New York City. Just went to my friend was like, yeah,
I went to like prep school with this kid. We're
going to go to his place and kid hair and
pants on. Oh yeah, and like just the strangest and
like the strangest vibes ever, you know, like, what's that
(20:10):
congruous vibes that are coming together in this person? Because
it's true, I do what I want vibes. Yeah, exactly.
I'll wear hair and pants with a Davy Crockett hat
and a shirt that says cunt on the front. Literally,
there's nothing anyone could or would do about it. The
good news is so Larry Ellison, the father of the
(20:32):
guy who David Ellison, is the CEO of Sky dance
just took over as the richest man in the world.
Oh hell yeah. So he's the founder of Oracle. Uh.
And Oracle just had a strong earnings report Tuesday because
(20:52):
they are like involved in a lot of people are
using their resources because of AI and so I had
a strong earnings report. And now his wealth jumped by
one hundred and one billion dollars in a single day.
So now he has three hundred and ninety three billion dollars,
(21:13):
which put him ahead of Elon Musk. Hell yeah, this
is this is the future. We get to just like
root for which billionaire we like, yes, yes, yes, yes,
And they're all fascists right exactly had a fucking single
one of them as a fucking soul. But hey, you
don't get three hundred and ninety three billion having a
fucking heart do you? Less? Good earnings report news? And
(21:37):
we do love to talk about earnings reports. I got
to talk about it. Guys. Apple launched their thinnest iPhone ever,
and uh, everybody's like, where is everything, Like where's all
the other stuff that would be like fun or cool
to use? Now think you know how thin this is.
It's as thin as another cell phone would be oh
(22:00):
what else. It's just really thin and there's there's some
new watches, but like this one's so fucking thin. Yeah,
they had their annual like look at the new shit
we got event in Cooper Tino yesterday. Shit. I looked
at some of the shit. It's like, yeah, okay, there's
a new like they added a they went up one
number on the iPhone to now seventeen. But I'm oh,
(22:23):
and the back looks different on the pro and I'm like, dude,
the cameras have been fucking really good for ages now,
I don't know what. Back when, like they were just
the only one doing it or still coasting off of
like the fact that they had done it. And yeah,
now people are just like, I don't know, man, because
everyone just kind of have us hooked. Yeah, and everyone says,
y'all haven't done shit since the iPad. Realistically, like what
(22:46):
are we talking about? I mean, like, sure, air pods,
but that's not really that remarkable, given you know, the
technology is so pervasive. But yeah, the big thing was,
like this stock price went down because all these investors
were not pleased with the lack of AI developed up
mins Uh, you barely mentioned AI like three times per paragraph,
which is what we demand at this point in any
(23:08):
earnings call. Uh so, yeah, we're going to be on
this one. We're cool. We're cool in our jets on
Apple folks. That's what we're gonna tell our That's we're
gonna tell our clients. Uh But again, I mean, it's
like it's just so funny how Wall Streem moves, like
there's always some buzzword thing that everyone's like that public
traded company has to embrace, like metaverse, but tase, how
(23:30):
do we show people like we're modern and these things
end up becoming absolute zeros in terms of like use cases.
And now it's AI, so you have to utter the
words AI for the investors to be like, yes, okay,
you figured it out because you're you're helping prop up
the other stocks I own and like Nvidio and things
like that, and it seems like the AI thing is
(23:51):
like it's being used. That's the one thing that you
can say for like, that's what Oracle like Oracle, It's not.
It's not that Oracle was like and look at this
amazing using like new interface or you know, something that
we can do with AI. It's just like a lot
of people are using AI. AI consumes incredible amount of
resources and so they need us and that those are
(24:13):
the things that are like making people a lot of
money right now, it's not anything that's being done by
AI yet. No, no, no, no no, because as we've seen,
none of these companies are profitable and they're all they're
like they're doing like the same thing like Elon wouldude like,
oh my god, this next one's like it gonna be
so sick, dude. It's like, I mean, it's like people
are going to fucking hurt themselves. It's so good, like
(24:35):
even more than the last one that was causing people
to harm themselves. Right all right? Uh, Finally Israel bombed
Doha as MOSS leaders met to consider a ceasefire proposal. Weird.
So yeah, just complete mask off as has been the case,
no interest in the ceasefire, no interest in a de escalation.
(24:58):
Israel can now add Hutter to the list of sovereign
nations it is attacked without justification. What a year for Israel. Huh. Yeah,
and bombed the capitol, killing six and masa that none
of their targeted leadership was killed. So who would the
six people be? Just just other people? Probably. I mean
(25:19):
whatever that Israel doesn't care. They're gonna bomb whoever the
fuck they want to, because again, they're all in on
this and we're gonna get him the bombs, baby, dude.
There was this thing because there's like the the Gaza
Humanitarian Foundation is like that thing that's like the US,
like is being backed by the US and stuff, and
like these where people are getting killed constantly trying to
get aid from there was a fucking report I just
(25:42):
saw that they are like American anti Islamic biker gang
members who are running security at these aid sites in Gaza.
In Gaza like this the Infidel's biker gang, like they're
like they're they're like we found at least nine of
these people are working security there, right, and like the
(26:03):
Humanitarian Foundations like whatever they do with their hobbies or
affiliates has nothing to do with this. Like they are
in a hate group, right, but they call themselves a
biker gang, and you maybe just like, well, I don't know,
they're in a biker gang. Oh they're an anti Islamic
biker gang. I don't know. Look, they're they're really good
at shooting guns. Yeah, very very just wacky shit happening. Yeah,
(26:25):
this just seems to be the I mean, so again,
this is like, you know, a war crime, much as
the you know, US bombing of that boat of alleged
drug smugglers was illegal. They were civilians. The New York
Times is now reporting that that boat had turned around,
was like, oh, there, we seem to be being tracked.
(26:47):
We're turning around. So like the entire argument that they
were making, which was like very shaky in the first place,
didn't matter. Even if they were a boat with rugs on.
It is not a fucking missile, right. But Trump announced
the strike, saying it took place in international waters, it
killed eleven people who he said were transporting drugs headed
(27:10):
to the United States, and we're part of Venezuelan gang.
And he still no evidence to support those assertions other
than he said we have tapes of them speaking. And yeah,
so legal specialists were like, you know, that's not an argument.
And then even if you accept the premise for the
(27:31):
sake of argument, if the boat had already turned away,
that would further undermine a already are an argument that
like doesn't even begin to make sense in a court
of law. So yeah, there's that there's there's that. Did
you also see the North Korean Oh my god, the
(27:51):
Seal Team's Sale Team SIST operation, Yes, where they were
trying to like implan a listening device on North Korean soil.
Seal Team six, like you know, did a beach landing,
and a boat of North Korean fishermen like arrived to
see what was going on, presumably being like, oh, do
(28:13):
these people have a good place to catch shellfish? Which
is what they were going for, and Seal Team six,
instead of like you know, zip tying them or doing
whatever the military would do in a movie, proceeded to
kill them all. Yeah, shoot them all and then puncture
their lungs with knives so that their bodies would think
so they wouldn't be discovered right away. Yeah, like yeah, yeah,
(28:35):
this is I mean, what the fuck whatever? I mean,
Like every time I'm like this, this is shit that
ends administrations usually, right, Yeah, I mean, and this is
And by the way, the person who told this story,
the sources who told this story did so not because
they're like, this is a really crazy story that happened
(28:57):
during the Trump administration. They did it like on a
they said. Their decision to provide details was out of
concern that the US military special operations failures are often
hidden by the government secrecy. So like, this is what
is happening on a regular basis, And oh sure, I
mean it's I just yeah, I think more and more
we're getting like a clearer picture of what Like there's
(29:18):
that new book, the Fort Bragg Cartel that depicts these
you know, military operator teams that like all they do
is just like go around storm different places in the
name of American Empire and just murder civilians. Like yeah,
it's I was talking when you were out and we
had the blank Check guys on. I was talking about
(29:39):
how there's not like the least depicted wars in like movies.
I feel like the one that I have the least
clear image of from movies are the wars that are
like happening that have been happening for the past twenty
five years. And the only ones that have like broken
through are like zero Dark thirty, the Hurt Lotsucker American Sniper,
(30:02):
and like those are ones where they like had to
bend it to be like this is trying to kill
Bin Laden. Yeah right, exactly. Just do a memoir from
a guy who's like lying about everything. But yeah, I
think more and more we're getting a clear idea that
I just I don't think the general public wants to
admit because they're just like, I don't know our respond
(30:24):
at least with Vietnam, there were like protests. With this,
it's just like, yeah, I don't know, man, we don't
like to think about it. Yeah. Well, I mean the
American people are fed a steady diet of like these
people are our warrior angel people. Yeah, and I think
it takes a long time for that kind of bullshit
to melt away, to kind of see like, no, these
are usually like poor people in the US that are
(30:44):
coerced into joining the military to prop up the empire.
And it's I don't know what we're getting in return,
because it only seems like bad shit constantly. That shit,
all right, that is what is trending this afternoon. We're
back tomorrow with a whole ass episode of the show.
Until then, be kind to each other, be kind to yourselves,
get your vaccines where you still can't get your flu shots,
(31:07):
don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we will talk
to you all tomorrow. Bye bye. The Daily Zeitgeist is
