Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of I
See You Baby, checking that trend, checking that trend. Let's
courtesy a Melazon. I don't remember that song. Oh was it?
That was just one of those tracks that like was
(00:21):
just just like they retired off that track, you know
what I mean? Oh yeah, so many like mixed c
D s. Now, that's what I call dance music three
soundtrack right, exactly right, And he's like, oh man, we
sold so many Toyota selkas with this one. All right,
(00:42):
I am Jack, you are Miles uh and uh. These
are some of the things that are trending really sad
news over the weekend about Michael kay Williams passing away
likely heroin or fentinel overdose, and then three people died
at Comics House in Venice after doing cocaine that was
(01:03):
mixed with fentyl. Fourth person was hospitalized. I don't know,
I you know, I don't know what to say other than, like,
you know, send away for the for the testing kits,
because it's dangerous. Yeah, if you're out here doing drugs
like its fucking yeah, this is the scariest shit. Because yeah,
I don't know, I mean, this has always been a
threat to people who use drugs recreationally is like you
(01:25):
never know what's in there. But there's just been an
just such an uptick in ship that never had fentyl
and it haven't getting cut with fentanyl. Yeah, uh it's yeah.
So I mean it's hard because like just just that
impulse of like doing drugs is not doesn't have the
same like kind of part of the brain going as
(01:46):
like the thing that's like and I'm gonna be a
responsible person and like make sure that this is right
for my health. But you know, you could also be
saving other people's lives if you catch a bed thatch, um,
you could be I don't know, it's it's uh, it's
really dangerous. Um. One thing I've I've been seeing is
people being like, but why why would somebody like cut
(02:09):
it with something that's more potent instead of like baby laxative.
And I've read two potential answers for that, like the
mixing of fentanyl, which is killing people it's so powerful
with drugs. One explanation is that they're not doing it
intentionally and there's just like trace amounts that are on
their mixing equipment and that's enough to get into the product.
(02:30):
People have been sharing this picture of a penny next
to two to three milligrams of fentanyl and it's like,
you know, it looks like a piece of dandruff. It's nothing.
And then also you know they're they're mixing in because
it gets you funked up, and you know that's what
people use drugs for. And then then you have a
(02:51):
drug dealer or you know, drug supplier walking a tight
rope mixing and fentanyl at not lethal doses that they
may get the reputation we're having really good ship, but
then could go the other way and they just like
pushed the line a little too far. So it's just yeah,
And there's also a lot of fucking takes on, like
how does Michael kay Williams do drugs? Like what what
(03:14):
if people just didn't do drugs? Like and that's a
very person who doesn't have any substance abuse issues or
has any empathy around that kind of take of like, well,
why is it, why doesn't that just happen because Michael
kay Williams, I mean, he he talked about how you know,
his like being in the wire and ship, like he's
had to go through a lot of ship and like
(03:36):
I'm I'm pretty sure he said he had relapsed after
doing the wire because it was just it was putting it.
It was very triggering situation for him. Um, and it's
not just it's not a simple thing of like, well,
why don't you just stop? That's not how addiction works.
And again a lot of people are starting to show
that how little they know about addiction or how little
(03:57):
empathy they have around it. Yeah, that's very frustrating, you know.
I mean it's very It's very common for any like
people who don't have a problem to be like, hey,
you should just why don't you just have two beers?
And it's like I can't, I can't. Yeah that's impossible. Um. Also,
Mac Miller died today three years ago. And you know,
(04:20):
this is a I don't know, it seems like a
dangerous time for people out there using. So just just
be be careful to We'll link off in the foot
notes to someplaces where you can get fentanyl test strips
um and yeah, be safe as much as you can.
She is trending sheet Wallace has entered the ring of
(04:45):
of old timers who watched the game through a jaded lens,
where nobody today is as good as they were back
in their day. Yeah, I mean, I an apologies if
you hear this wood chipper in the background. Uh just
I'm they're doing a like a play of Fargo outside
of my window. Um, but you do, Rashid. Look, I
(05:08):
love you, Sid, I love you, Rashid Wallace. You're You're
one of my favorite players. I love your birthmark. I
love the air the high air force ones that have
you doing a fade away on the heel logo. I
love it all, Rashid, But you saying he basically said,
you know, I'm not sure Lebron would be a successful
back in my day, back because the league was just
different back then. Are you for real? Are you serious,
(05:30):
Rashid Wallace. I'm really trying to understand what you think,
like because Lebron James is built to fucking bang bodies.
If that's what your argument is, like was way more physical.
We don't play don't play the same. I don't know
what you're saying, Rashid, And I wish that the people
who wrote this headline gave you more than just that
one isolated line, because maybe it's a more nuanced teak.
(05:52):
But based off of this, I'm not sure, sir. I'm
not sure what you're trying to say. Yeah, this makes
sense for so many other plays to be like, yeah,
they would have gotten bodied more. But that's like being
like yeah, Shack couldn't handle all the physical play of
It's like, yo, this dude thrives on contact, Like that
(06:15):
is that is? That is? I don't know. It's such
a confusing take that this is. Okay, here's a here's
a larger quote quote. He probably would have done good
with his physical stature, with him being bigger than the
majority of the rest of the players. Uh. This is
on a recent podcast appearance. Isn't that where it always happens? Um, So,
he probably would have held his own, but I don't
(06:36):
think he would be as successful as he is now.
It's a whole different era back then. I couldn't necessarily
say that he would have been a beast, but I
think he would have held his own I still come on,
I mean, um, I mean no. It the look whenever
(06:56):
you hypothetical people from the past are the ones if
whenever you do this hypothetical ship, it's the old school
players that you always wonder how they would do, Like, uh,
you know how they would do in the modern game,
you know what I mean, And the person who goes
back will destroy ship because their whole platform is built
on the experiences of those past generations, so they're versed
(07:19):
in that kind of play the game. That's like I
don't even know. You're like going like down an evolutionary charting,
Like I don't know if the human being would have
thrived in the time of chro magnet men because it
was different. I'm like, might outwitted them. I don't know,
but like what are we I don't I just it's
just in sports, it's such a it's a it's just
(07:40):
such a like linear progression, like you can just look
back at the games and be like, oh, how is
that guy on the court right now? And that's not
where she Wallace. For She Wallace was great, but there
he was playing against people who wouldn't make it in
the modern day. N b A. You know, super producer
Brian is saying that it's a bronze age and machine
(08:00):
guns question, and I think that's pretty pretty accurate. I mean,
Oscar Robertson is a great example of this. He ever
averaged a triple double. One of the great players of
all time, but he like always was like Michael Jordan's
just a ball hog, Like the take that fourth graders have,
He's just like, they wouldn't have made it in my day,
and it's just I don't know, it's probably the same
(08:21):
reason that they're not able to objectively realize when it's
time to hang it up. There more compromised in their
vision than we are because they were there. I just
love how some people wrote about this like claim and
really like used like facts and figures to debunk it.
(08:41):
It's like, however, James is an extremely well rounded player
and he doesn't rely on merely one aspect of his
game to be successful. James was six ft nine and
two fifty pounds is capable of scoring at all three levels,
thus making Wallace's claim questionable. It's like, yeah, we know,
thank you, though, yeah, I mean, that also didn't sound
like it was the most thought through position. It's sounds
like somebody on the podcast is like, do you think
(09:02):
he would have done okay in your time? And he
was like, you know, I just gave a kind of equivocating,
not strong take, and people are like, oh shit, yeah, yeah,
I mean, because that's what he says. He's like, I
couldn't necessarily say that he wouldn't have been a beast,
but I think he would have held his own Yeah,
that goes without saying. But hey, look, that's that's why
we love when the old heads give their insights, so
(09:23):
we can get outraged and then reminisce about them too.
And then finally, Matrix Resurrections is trending with a trailer
an interactive website where you get to choose the red
or the blue pill. Kind of weird in our dainty Okay, well,
so that's what I'm wondering. Are they doing this intentionally
(09:44):
because they know that red pilling has been so dramatically
shipped upon by the people who use that phrase, like
just completely robbed of all value, and so now they're like,
all right, let's let's bring it back and put it
in the context of the Matrix. Like I don't know,
I mean, I don't I'm not gonna think too deeply
(10:05):
about it. Um. I just I realized, like it's taking
me back, and I'm fifteen years old and I've never
seen anything like the first Matrix trailer, And I spent
like two hours downloading the QuickTime file of the trailer
to like my fucking like mom's computer and she got
so mad because it like the internet up because Mom,
they fucking the camera just goes. I don't know what
(10:27):
the Fox's happening here. Um, And this trailer it's a
teaser because on Thursday they said a proper trailer is
going to come out. So what this gave you was
just a very little tastes um of like what we
could possibly be seeing. You see yah yahbdul matine in it,
and I'm like, okay, this is but it's weird. Kanu
looks like when they showed him walking with his long hair,
(10:49):
I'm like, is this John Wick? So I'm worried about
making sure I'm looking at Neo and thinking is Neo
and not John Wick? But you know that's my own struggle.
This trailer made me very hopeful because the division between
good matrix and bad matrix for me was like whether
(11:10):
it was happening in the like reality where everything sucks.
The battery like people are batteries and the giant like
swimming robots are like flying around like that. That ship
was boring, and that was where like a lot of
the third one took place, and then all the memorable
scenes happen in the matrix and like in the you know,
(11:33):
altered reality with Neo having like wild audibilities, and it
seems like there's like a lot of that ship happening
in this So I am I am hopeful maybe they
learned their lesson, but who knows, maybe they learned their lesson,
which is like, hey, if we just call some of
the matrix, we're gonna make like a hundred million dollars.
So fucking all right, let's take a quick break. We'll
(11:55):
be right back, and we're back. Greg Abbott is trending.
You know, they got the this fucking guy just past
the new voter restriction bill. Um As if the abortion
(12:17):
bill wasn't bad enough, this one, you know, this is
the one that's been hard fought against a lot of Democrats.
Remember they fled the state to prevent this from happening. Uh,
and it just couldn't get done. So, you know, cutting
hours for early voting, banning drive through voting, new id
requirements for voting by mail, fucking partisan poll watchers to
like just you know, metal at a polling place. Essentially,
(12:42):
the movement what the I mean they can just like
go walk over stand over your shoulder. Typically you can't
you can't go inside a polling place and there's a
very specific area that you could stand. Um so I
don't know, just goon squads that are going to be
out there, and also requirements for people if you're helping
voters who need assistance, Like they're just doing everything they
(13:05):
can to make voting even more difficult and further underlining
why the filibus journeys to just be fucking vaporized. And
you start putting this stuff at a federal level to
begin for you know, enshrining these protections properly. But we'll
see they are changing the rules to make to give
themselves better chance at maintaining power, and the Democrats again
(13:28):
are refusing to do that, and so they're going to
inevitably lose. And that again like just more and more
clear that the Democrats benefit from the equilibrium being somewhere
between them and Republicans and like the Republicans still having
like acclaim to power, and um, you know, it gives
(13:52):
them something to run on. It keeps the people who
fund their campaigns happy because otherwise, like if you just
look at it like from a competition like game theory, perspective,
It makes no sense that they wouldn't just abolish the
filibuster because the Republicans are already like doing doing unprecedented
(14:12):
ship like why and you're not gonna You're like that
we can't do that now that that wouldn't make them mad.
It's just Dr Faucci, the director of National Institute for
Allergy and Infectious Diseases. You heard of this guy. Yeah,
he says that hospitals in certain states you know, are
(14:34):
filling up with unvaccinated effected COVID nineteen patients, which means
doctors will soon have to make tough choices about who
will get And I see you, bed um. I mean
that's already happening around the country. Uh. And they're also
growing concerns as the rate of children's COVID nineteen hospitalizations
(14:55):
is four times higher in areas with low vaccination. So
it's not not great. I feel like there's tendency I'm
seeing in where where people are just like Fauci, God,
shut up. I hate that guy because he just keeps
giving like bad news with a smile on his face,
(15:15):
and people are just mad at reality. Yeah. It's I
don't know, man, It's just again we kind of touched
on in tomorrow's episode. But this is a thing that
a lot of health professionals are saying, like this are
the health system is caving in, It's it's it's it's
failing at the moment. And it's not like the fact
(15:37):
that doctors have to make tough choices. I get it
that it's a there's a pandemic going on. There's also
a lot of like lack of infrastructural support and things
like that that have created a really bad situation for
people working in the front lines for this. And yeah,
I don't know just um for all of the things
(15:58):
that we've seen fail, well, we're hardly articulating any kind
of like solution to these things and it's just man
making tough choices. Were where's the legislation too? Like why
isn't this being passed? But you know, the people on
the hill have trouble focusing on real things. And finally,
Monica Lewinsky is trending because the American is it American
(16:22):
crime story? Is that what that franchise is called, the
one that started with the People versus O. J. Simpson.
Uh now is taking on the Clinton impeachment and it
seems like things were somewhat quiet about this. Is it
has it been airing already or is it just starting
to air? Premiers tonight Tuesday night. So you're gonna get
(16:46):
the first episode, okay? Um? Yeah, So it's called American
Crime Story Impeachment. Uh, it's um, I don't know. This
is the first time I've been remotely intrigued now that
I'm finding out who plays everybody? Clive Owen as Bill Clinton. Yeah,
it's is Hillary Clinton. Yeah. Hey, let's let's let's check
(17:13):
it out. You know, let's see what's going on. And also,
you know, I think it's time for a reevaluation of
that story and the in the mainstream. Oh ship Monica
Lewinsky's Beanie Felsie Yeah, oh ship, Yeah, damn out here. Yeah,
(17:35):
that's that's good casting. Um. Sarah Paulson as Linda Tripp
Uh And yeah, like you said, um playing Hillary Falco Bro.
You know, look, I'll check. I'm sure. I'm sure it'll
be good or problematic. I don't know. We'll see, we'll
(17:55):
see how they get or done. Um. But that's I mean,
I get everyone from then who remembers the nineties, like
Ship after O J. You're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, this one,
this one um problematic, like a how old was he? Yeah?
Was he in his parties? Fifties year old man having
an affair with twenty one year old intern. Yeah, we'll see,
(18:19):
we'll see how they how they handle that one. Yeah, Um,
I'm sure. I mean, i'd imagine you handle it realistically,
because that's the most salacious version, is the reality of
the situation, rather than like some tired trope of like
the the intern who was catching his eye anything else
you're watching right now, only murders in the building. I
(18:42):
think it's what it's called. That Hulu show with Steve
Martle has like confused me every time I saw it,
But yeah, it does look good. Yeah, I mean, look,
it's it's a little meta because it's people getting into
murder podcast trying to solve a murder. But the trio
of Selina going Steve Martin and Martin short is very
(19:02):
interesting so far, the couple episodes I've seen. Yeah, I'm
gonna check that out. All right, it's about our industry,
you know, we gotta we gotta see how exactly it's
being represented. Bro, Alright, that is gonna do it for us.
On this Tuesday afternoon. We are back tomorrow with a
whole as episode of the show. Until then, be kind
(19:24):
to each other, be kind to yourselves, test your drugs
for fentanel, get the vaccine. Don't do nothing about white supremacy.
We'll talk you out tomorrow by
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of I
See You Baby, checking that trend, checking that trend. Let's
courtesy a Melazon. I don't remember that song. Oh was it?

two fifty pounds is capable of scoring at all three levels,
thus making Wallace's claim questionable. It's like, yeah, we know,
thank you, though, yeah, I mean, that also didn't sound
like it was the most thought through position. It's sounds
like somebody on the podcast is like, do you think
(09:02):
he would have done okay in your time? And he
was like, you know, I just gave a kind of equivocating,
not strong take, and people are like, oh shit, yeah, yeah,
I mean, because that's what he says. He's like, I
couldn't necessarily say that he wouldn't have been a beast,
but I think he would have held his own Yeah,
that goes without saying. But hey, look, that's that's why
we love when the old heads give their insights, so
(09:23):
we can get outraged and then reminisce about them too.
And then finally, Matrix Resurrections is trending with a trailer
an interactive website where you get to choose the red
or the blue pill. Kind of weird in our dainty Okay, well,
so that's what I'm wondering. Are they doing this intentionally
(09:44):
because they know that red pilling has been so dramatically
shipped upon by the people who use that phrase, like
just completely robbed of all value, and so now they're like,
all right, let's let's bring it back and put it
in the context of the Matrix. Like I don't know,
I mean, I don't I'm not gonna think too deeply
(10:05):
about it. Um. I just I realized, like it's taking
me back, and I'm fifteen years old and I've never
seen anything like the first Matrix trailer, And I spent
like two hours downloading the QuickTime file of the trailer
to like my fucking like mom's computer and she got
so mad because it like the internet up because Mom,
they fucking the camera just goes. I don't know what
(10:27):
the Fox's happening here. Um, And this trailer it's a
teaser because on Thursday they said a proper trailer is
going to come out. So what this gave you was
just a very little tastes um of like what we
could possibly be seeing. You see yah yahbdul matine in it,
and I'm like, okay, this is but it's weird. Kanu
looks like when they showed him walking with his long hair,
(10:49):
I'm like, is this John Wick? So I'm worried about
making sure I'm looking at Neo and thinking is Neo
and not John Wick? But you know that's my own struggle.
This trailer made me very hopeful because the division between
good matrix and bad matrix for me was like whether
(11:10):
it was happening in the like reality where everything sucks.
The battery like people are batteries and the giant like
swimming robots are like flying around like that. That ship
was boring, and that was where like a lot of
the third one took place, and then all the memorable
scenes happen in the matrix and like in the you know,
(11:33):
altered reality with Neo having like wild audibilities, and it
seems like there's like a lot of that ship happening
in this So I am I am hopeful maybe they
learned their lesson, but who knows, maybe they learned their lesson,
which is like, hey, if we just call some of
the matrix, we're gonna make like a hundred million dollars.
So fucking all right, let's take a quick break. We'll
(11:55):
be right back, and we're back. Greg Abbott is trending.
You know, they got the this fucking guy just past
the new voter restriction bill. Um As if the abortion
(12:17):
bill wasn't bad enough, this one, you know, this is
the one that's been hard fought against a lot of Democrats.
Remember they fled the state to prevent this from happening. Uh,
and it just couldn't get done. So, you know, cutting
hours for early voting, banning drive through voting, new id
requirements for voting by mail, fucking partisan poll watchers to
like just you know, metal at a polling place. Essentially,
(12:42):
the movement what the I mean they can just like
go walk over stand over your shoulder. Typically you can't
you can't go inside a polling place and there's a
very specific area that you could stand. Um so I
don't know, just goon squads that are going to be
out there, and also requirements for people if you're helping
voters who need assistance, Like they're just doing everything they
(13:05):
can to make voting even more difficult and further underlining
why the filibus journeys to just be fucking vaporized. And
you start putting this stuff at a federal level to
begin for you know, enshrining these protections properly. But we'll
see they are changing the rules to make to give
themselves better chance at maintaining power, and the Democrats again
(13:28):
are refusing to do that, and so they're going to
inevitably lose. And that again like just more and more
clear that the Democrats benefit from the equilibrium being somewhere
between them and Republicans and like the Republicans still having
like acclaim to power, and um, you know, it gives
(13:52):
them something to run on. It keeps the people who
fund their campaigns happy because otherwise, like if you just
look at it like from a competition like game theory, perspective,
It makes no sense that they wouldn't just abolish the
filibuster because the Republicans are already like doing doing unprecedented
(14:12):
ship like why and you're not gonna You're like that
we can't do that now that that wouldn't make them mad.
It's just Dr Faucci, the director of National Institute for
Allergy and Infectious Diseases. You heard of this guy. Yeah,
he says that hospitals in certain states you know, are
(14:34):
filling up with unvaccinated effected COVID nineteen patients, which means
doctors will soon have to make tough choices about who
will get And I see you, bed um. I mean
that's already happening around the country. Uh. And they're also
growing concerns as the rate of children's COVID nineteen hospitalizations
(14:55):
is four times higher in areas with low vaccination. So
it's not not great. I feel like there's tendency I'm
seeing in where where people are just like Fauci, God,
shut up. I hate that guy because he just keeps
giving like bad news with a smile on his face,
(15:15):
and people are just mad at reality. Yeah. It's I
don't know, man, It's just again we kind of touched
on in tomorrow's episode. But this is a thing that
a lot of health professionals are saying, like this are
the health system is caving in, It's it's it's it's
failing at the moment. And it's not like the fact
(15:37):
that doctors have to make tough choices. I get it
that it's a there's a pandemic going on. There's also
a lot of like lack of infrastructural support and things
like that that have created a really bad situation for
people working in the front lines for this. And yeah,
I don't know just um for all of the things
(15:58):
that we've seen fail, well, we're hardly articulating any kind
of like solution to these things and it's just man
making tough choices. Were where's the legislation too? Like why
isn't this being passed? But you know, the people on
the hill have trouble focusing on real things. And finally,
Monica Lewinsky is trending because the American is it American
(16:22):
crime story? Is that what that franchise is called, the
one that started with the People versus O. J. Simpson.
Uh now is taking on the Clinton impeachment and it
seems like things were somewhat quiet about this. Is it
has it been airing already or is it just starting
to air? Premiers tonight Tuesday night. So you're gonna get
(16:46):
the first episode, okay? Um? Yeah, So it's called American
Crime Story Impeachment. Uh, it's um, I don't know. This
is the first time I've been remotely intrigued now that
I'm finding out who plays everybody? Clive Owen as Bill Clinton. Yeah,
it's is Hillary Clinton. Yeah. Hey, let's let's let's check
(17:13):
it out. You know, let's see what's going on. And also,
you know, I think it's time for a reevaluation of
that story and the in the mainstream. Oh ship Monica
Lewinsky's Beanie Felsie Yeah, oh ship, Yeah, damn out here. Yeah,
(17:35):
that's that's good casting. Um. Sarah Paulson as Linda Tripp
Uh And yeah, like you said, um playing Hillary Falco Bro.
You know, look, I'll check. I'm sure. I'm sure it'll
be good or problematic. I don't know. We'll see, we'll
(17:55):
see how they get or done. Um. But that's I mean,
I get everyone from then who remembers the nineties, like
Ship after O J. You're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, this one,
this one um problematic, like a how old was he? Yeah?
Was he in his parties? Fifties year old man having
an affair with twenty one year old intern. Yeah, we'll see,
(18:19):
we'll see how they how they handle that one. Yeah, Um,
I'm sure. I mean, i'd imagine you handle it realistically,
because that's the most salacious version, is the reality of
the situation, rather than like some tired trope of like
the the intern who was catching his eye anything else
you're watching right now, only murders in the building. I
(18:42):
think it's what it's called. That Hulu show with Steve
Martle has like confused me every time I saw it,
But yeah, it does look good. Yeah, I mean, look,
it's it's a little meta because it's people getting into
murder podcast trying to solve a murder. But the trio
of Selina going Steve Martin and Martin short is very
(19:02):
interesting so far, the couple episodes I've seen. Yeah, I'm
gonna check that out. All right, it's about our industry,
you know, we gotta we gotta see how exactly it's
being represented. Bro, Alright, that is gonna do it for us.
On this Tuesday afternoon. We are back tomorrow with a
whole as episode of the show. Until then, be kind
(19:24):
to each other, be kind to yourselves, test your drugs
for fentanel, get the vaccine. Don't do nothing about white supremacy.
We'll talk you out tomorrow by
