Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode. Uh, it's
all it's all trends, move and mysterious ways. Al Right,
isn't that album on everyone? Is that what that is?

(00:20):
I think so? Yeah, that was that slap, which I
think is what we used to say when I was
a kid back back in uh, when I was a
kid a couple of years ago. Yeah, I'm lying about
my age now that. Yeah, that's the new thing. How
did you get in seven? Actually feel so old you
barely remember? I was like to yeah, I think it

(00:42):
was two three, it was. I don't ever say I'm dude.
I was in nineties, baby, I was born in ninety nine. Uh, miles,
we're old. What's up? What's up? Let's talk that commercial?
I don't remember that came out here? I was born. Yeah,
there you go. Shannon Doherty is trending very sad. This

(01:04):
is This reminds me of when Ray Charles and Ronald
Reagan both passed like within days of each other, because like,
the Conservatives had their hero who passed, and uh, you
know the rest of the world had theirs, and I
feel like, you know, yesterday, Rush Limbaugh announced he has
a pretty advanced cancer and now we have global icon

(01:27):
Brenda Walsh announcing her cancer is back and it's not
looking good because she was in remission. Yeah. Yeah, she
had breast cancer and then uh, you know, fought fought
through it, got into remission and now it looks like
it's back. Which cancer is. Yeah, cancer really great slogan. Yeah,

(01:49):
I couldn't get behind it. More cancer. It's one of
those things I think people on earth have seen a
family member or experienced themselves. Just how awful that is? Yeah?
What else? Chasing Bud, Pete's husband, is trending because of
the woman who withdrew her support when she found out

(02:14):
Pete Bud just was gay after already having cast her
vote committing committing to him when the caucus she was like,
well I don't I don't want to do that. She's
like the moment when she realizes that, Yeah, it's unbelievable. Yeah.
And also like if that, if something like that is
so like immediately disqualifying, do some research a little bit.

(02:38):
You would you would think that that would be one
of her. But maybe she's somebody who hates all like
many different types, and so I mean her argument was biblical,
like he should read the Bible. Then his one of
his campaign workers like, but he does, and she did,
I think a good job because she realized, you know,

(02:58):
there's a certain point when you hear I want to
respond to an issue. There you go, oh, I can't
reason with you, you know what I mean. And that's
where she was like, I respect your not well formed opinion.
I respect that you have it, and maybe we just
don't need to fight. But jokes on, you already signed
the card. Yeah, yeah, Uh. Nicks are trending. They fired

(03:19):
their president Steve Mills. Uh. This is just just more
of you know, James Dolan being an amazing team owner
and just having you know, steady hand at the till. Yep, exactly.
You got. Look, there's some waves, but you'll get through them,
or you can panic and say the boat sinking and
then just jump into a life raft is the president

(03:42):
of the Knicks. Do you know how big of a
hand he has in all their trades and stuff and
identify I mean it depends the changes based on the franchise, Like, uh,
you know, their general manager Scott Perry will oversee the
basketball operations in the interim, but I guess Steve Mills
had been overseeing them. I know that. You know, he

(04:03):
oversaw the Porzingis trade and I think was the person
who came out and was the spokesperson that was a
controversial trade that happened last year. And apparently Nick's owner
James Dolan, who you know, he's inherited his role as
the head of a massive media empire from his father,

(04:24):
who was actually I guess a visionary uh, and he
has used his position as the owner of the Knicks
and the owner of Madison Square Garden to completely funck
over Knicks fans and also uh, music fans. He managed
to funk over music fans because his his band j

(04:45):
In the Straight Shot Jad in the Straight Shot opens
for bands like the Eagles. That's like, but that's part
of the terms, Like okay, you play Madison Square Guarden
by bands opening and like were the Eagles? Right? But
he would never put it in the contract. He would
just you know, be like it's kind of hinging. Yeah,
he just put his dick on the table in the negotiation.
That was that. That's the sound of that, Yeah, the

(05:07):
I mean, but for instance, to to give you a
sense of like how much a president can do, he
is reportedly looking to get Toronto Raptors president massaia Ugieriot
who is you know, he was one. He was kind
of the architect of their championship last year. So you
know that's a that's a president who is extremely involved. Um.

(05:29):
I mean, look, my heart goes out to Knicks fans
as uh. You know, I've I've I support teams that
go through lean years. But to be a like, I
know a lot of die hard Knick fans, which is
really interesting, like a lot of transplants here. I don't
know if they do it because they like don't want
to jump on the like Lakers or Clipper bandwagon, but
they're like, no, man, I'm a Knicks fan. Like wow, yeah,

(05:52):
bless you, sir. You've had daggers straight into your soul constantly.
You've been out to see for so long, Hey man,
bring this, bring bring the Chips back to New York hunt. Yeah. Uh,
it's getting it's getting to that point where I don't know,
it's interesting because it's not like the franchise feels cursed.
It feels just like they like acute ineptitude by one

(06:17):
person who's in charge of the franchise. UM so scenario
like this, Yeah, acute in eptitude at the top. Yeah,
huh huh. Anyways, Uh, what are you talking about? Uh
so we'll we'll see. I'm sure he's not gonna get
uh yu Jerry, because that is like the top, that's

(06:38):
who everybody will want to run their franchise. And uh
literally like this m right, but this is like what
he what Dolan and you know Nick's supporters and Nick's
front off his people were doing last year when they
were like, yeah, well then we're gonna trade away Porzingis
because then Kevin Durant and Kyrie are gonna come here

(07:00):
and right and we'll have Zion and they just nobody
wants to play for your James Dolan. Like the second
he sells the team, I'm sure it'll sure it'll be
an attractive place to play. Uh. Anyways, we can't put
any of this in the title or he will find it.
So uh, let's talk about mcmillions. There's a new HBO

(07:22):
documentary series chronicling Yeah. Yeah, this is one of my
favorite stories in a Cracked article, Stolen Monopoly. Yeah man,
he he really did it. It was just a guy
who was somewhere in the quality control line, quality control chain.
You know, somewhere along the line of like securing the

(07:45):
pieces winning pieces from McDonald's monopoly game, and he was
able to just start giving them out to friends and
family and somehow, I mean, I guess he just noticed
that McDonald's was not on the ship when it came
down to oversee he was the one they trusted to
distribute the pieces. So when it's that guy and he's

(08:08):
like building trapdoors into his jackets and shipped to smuggle
these things on planes, I mean, it'll be that. I mean,
I remember we were talking about it because the story
got a lot of more a lot more texture than
this last year, and we talked about the story a
documentary would be fascinating, although didn't we say like that
it was like option nearly immediately the second that Daily
Be started. Yeah, I'm sure, Like I feel I feel

(08:30):
like this is one of those stories that will be
both documentary and feature future film. And it's the like,
you know, for in the podcasting industry. This is that
sweet spot man just mass culture and true crime, popular
culture and true crime. There it's nailed on hit Man,
slam Dunk called mcdee dude to slam Dunk, Indian Zone. Well,

(08:55):
hitting a home run from outside the a team welling
a home run into a hole and one boom. Uh.
And then you know, Iowa caucuses are obviously the number
one thing trending. Uh. We now have sixty two percent
of precincts reporting as this recording, as of this recording. Uh.
And Buddha Judge is ahead on delegates, but Sanders is

(09:18):
ahead on the popular vote. And depending on what channel
you're watching, they'll they make all kinds of things out
of this, Like on CNN they're like, don't look at
the popular vote parts where Sanders had look at the
delegate count, which I know there is obviously because at
the end of the day, we're talking about delegates here,
so that does matter. But there's this I don't know
CNN that was sort of hard to watch the second

(09:41):
the results came out and them just trying to be like, yeah,
so this looks like this this is a dub, yeah,
dub for Buddha Judge. Uh. Clearly he knew what he
was talking about. When you play victory and and and
a story. Oh yeah, there's also these popular vote numbers,
but back to these and of the results so far. Yeah,

(10:02):
it was the guy who is the head of the party.
He looked just so embarrassed. He looked like the sort
of person who has uncomfortable battle movements just based on
his overall build and face. But then it looked like
we were watching him have history's most uncomfortable battle movement
while he was on stage. Yeah, I was hoping he
was gonna cry. Yeah. I kind of could have seen

(10:25):
a single tear falling down his face because when he
started on his sort of speed saying like, you know,
I've caucused for twenty years. Yeah, and I thought him, like, yes,
turn it on, get the sympathy points right now. Yeah,
I didn't want a little bit. It hurts me too.
I mean, that is a lot of adversity for a
you know, white dude to go through used to that

(10:47):
sort of thing, app crap out on you like that, right,
so we'll see, I mean, uh, the biggest takeaway I
will say, yes, Buddha Judge should he can hang his
hat on that little bit of bumping out because he
went from being a single digit person to being in
the top two as of this sixty that could change.
But you know who should really be quaking in their

(11:09):
bold boots Old Joe Biden old Joe Biden, he is
it does not was not a good look for him.
I mean it's wild because thirty eight heading into this
had him as like the prohibitive favorite just based on
his national numbers. But the second these numbers came out,
like everybody on MSNBC was like, man, he might be

(11:29):
if he doesn't win South Carolina, he'll probably drop out
that night because his New Hampshire is not looking good
for me either, Like neer is not a possibility for him.
Right when you look at uh Sanders numbers in New Hampshire,
they're kind of spiking, um yeah at the right time.
So I mean this this is also gonna hurt for
donations too. You put up you put up numbers like that,

(11:51):
then the donors are like, what the funk am I
giving you this? I mean the second these numbers hit
there there were reports of him reaching out to his
donors and trend you're like, hey, go to Joe, give
me some dough please. Um yeah. So it's you know,
it'll be interesting to see as this develops. But like

(12:13):
we talked, like we talked about on tomorrow's episode, IOWA
is mainly about the media narrative so, uh, this is
the sort of you know, story moment for the media
to try and be kingmaker, right, and it's the sort
of ambiguous results where the media gets to make whatever
the narrative that they want to tell up. Yeah, I

(12:36):
mean I wonder if they're going to do this thing
right where they're like, who the thought Pete Buddha Judge,
rather than acknowledging their blind spot for Bernie turning it
on like you know, we've gotten it wrong in the past,
but you know, Buddha Judge, really the wind is at
his bad. I mean, it's almost like Buddha Judges this
year's Trump. You know, we just didn't see him coming. Uh. Anyways, well,

(13:00):
we'll see how this affects things going forward. I'm sure
it will make Buddha Judge even more attractive to his
billionaire donors. That that was wild when he so he
came out right after those results were announced in New Hampshire. Yeah,
it was like, you know, we started this campaign a
year ago, nobody had heard of me. I had no money,

(13:23):
was like, yo, family, maybe like the most billionaire donors,
and now you're caked up. Yeah, but hey, look I
love it underdog. Sorry, Yeah, you know, nobody everybody said
they were gonna. Nobody said we could do Nobody said
we could do it. Actually, no one said we should
do it. All right, we're gonna. That's it. We're gonna.

(13:45):
I was used to throwing the brakes, but we're throwing
do the ultimate break until four morning. We bid you
a do Yeah. Uh So I have a great night everyone,
uh and we'll be back tomorrow morning with more daily See, guys,
we'll put get them by nite.
