Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, Gang, it's Jack speaking to you after we recorded
the episode you're about to hear. I just wanted to
let you know we recorded this before Nancy Pelosi had
officially announced that the Democrats were launching impeachment procedures. Uh,
nothing else really has changed. We basically believed that that
(00:21):
was inevitable at the time. But we will be talking
about something in the future tense that we would have
been speaking about in the past tense. And yeah, stay
tuned tomorrow for more on this developing story. Hello the Internet,
(00:41):
and welcome to season one on one, Episode three of
The Ice Guys, a production of My Heart Radio. This
is a podcast where we take a deep dive into
America's share consciousness and say, officially, off the top, fuck
coke Industries and perfect I didn't think we'd make it
(01:02):
this season one on one. Uh, it's Wednesday, September. Team.
My name is Jack O'Brien, a k I co found
at Cracton Pool and the ends are bree courtesy of Trike,
Gang and Child, to be joined as always by my
co host Mr Miles, Rab've Got e d and Jackson Weird.
(01:30):
What the hell are those veness I'm dreaming of? Royce hair.
I'm dreaming of Royce hair. That's Marco Royce, footballer from Grosia,
Dormante uh e D. And Jackson Weirdo veneers, a reference
to Jamie Loftus's obsession with identifying celebrity veneers. That a
(01:51):
k a. Comes from Nathan Miller at Micropolitans. Thank you,
I'm the jack Weirdo part a unfair attack on my character. Yeah, well,
we're thrilled to be joined in our third seat by
the hilarious and talented TIFFs Steven. Hey, my voice didn't
(02:12):
even come out then to do that. Yeah, I didn't
even have the enthusiasm to cheer myself on. How British
have you been good? Yeah? I'm joining the Sunshine. Yeah,
been in town about a week now. It's gonna be
my birthday while I'm out here, so I'm looking forward
to the surprise party plan. Yeah, and your birthday was
(02:35):
reminded me exactly exactly exactly, so we will see you then. Obviously,
apparently they were saying that if you're born on the
twenty six of September, that's because your parents boned on
Boxing Day? Do you call it boxing day? Here? The
day off just Canada. I think there's only a North
American country that recognized the Boxing Day. But this is
(02:57):
the most you have, like in the region of the
most common time to have a birthday among the human specs.
I just had my as well, right, and it's because
the Christmas is our mating season. Yeah, well, actually I
think I was. I was produced in festive Gooch, which
is do you do you have the word couch here?
(03:18):
It means something very different. It means a bit between
the balls and the most like, so festive Gooch is
a bit between like Christmas and New Year. Take that America,
download that one vocabulary. Yeah matter. I like holitains. Rate
(03:41):
the holitains with your friends. That is kind of the
best time to where it's like, well, we're not taking
the decorations down because it's still the spirit and then
you're looking forward to New Year's or Boxing Day football matches. Yes,
Boxing Day football matches Is that a thing? Oh yes, yes, yes.
And also they cramped so many matches in to that
Christmas break too, it's pretty amazing. Also, some might say
(04:03):
unfair because other leagues in Europe do take breaks during
Christmas and that might lead to better Champions League performance,
but I don't know. Okay, I'm not a pundit. I
just play one on a podcast throwing down some hot
opinion there. Well, I mean I think it's I think it's,
you know, my thing. Most European footy fans would have
agreed that if the Premier League had a break, we
do much better than I don't know anyway, Liverpool just one.
(04:24):
So it's all moot, it is, right, Jack More. We're
gonna get to know you a little better in a moment.
I saw some of your sports here, by the way,
you saw some of my sports, well, some of your
country sports. I went to a Yankees game in New York. Yeah,
it's really exciting when stuff happened, which very rare, but
(04:47):
like there's five times it was rained off for like
a chunk of time. Really, But I thought I would
just shout out things that I know from UK sports
during the game. I thought that would make me really popular,
Like score a goal exactly, ball that kind of thing exactly.
You're like, what, yeah, I am, like what We're going
(05:11):
to first tell our listeners a couple of things. Uh,
it's it's great that our engineer is incredibly high today.
So this is fun. He's just us. You know why,
It's because he's watching dough Boys video clips. That's what
he does on everything he engineers. He's he makes it
a point to watch dough Boys clips to be like,
(05:32):
I like this podcast, right, And so he can get
a genuine reaction of enjoying a podcast while he's engineering ours.
So so it looks like he's engaged. He's laughing fun,
he's taped an iPad in front of the monitor and
he's like, oh yeah, this is good stuff right here.
You said it. I mean Jack many ways, I mean
(05:52):
Miles is a real Uh. Well, we're going to get
to a little bit better in a moment. First, we're
gonna tell our listeners a couple of things we're talking
about today. Fox has had to apologize for h only
one of their super Caddy surface level takedowns of a
sixteen year old child. We're gonna talk about that. Getta
(06:15):
getta listen to some of those sick burns on Greta. Uh,
we're gonna talk about Ukraine. We're gonna talk a lot
about Ukraine. Actually today we might need to start mentioning
Ukraine up top when we're talking about that. We're taking
a deep dive into America and Ukraine's national share conscious.
(06:38):
But yeah, we're gonna talk about the whistleblower story, the
fact that it might be heading towards impeachment town. We're
gonna talk about millennials killing the Amtrak dining car. Affirmative action,
uh for rich white kids is a thing. Uh. We're
gonna talk about Gucci's latest funk up, just one in
(07:00):
a long series. You hate to see it. I hate
to see I'm wearing one of the belts I didn't know.
And then we're gonna talk about Instagram. The first tiff.
We like to ask our guests, what is something from
your search history that's revealing about who you are. I
just looked up crem de lamare cremla, yes, which is
(07:23):
skin cream, skin cream because I was the horse. Cream
of the sea. That sounds yeah, cream of sounds yeah. Yeah.
That or like when when you're by the shore and
like the waves are like frothing. Yeah, that's in my mind.
(07:43):
I think that would be cream of the sea. Anyway,
white in the White Caps, I instantly went sexual engross. Yeah,
I mean I was just trying to think of what
that would look like, and yeah, I prefer the phone,
but yeah, it would be yeah. Lets which is I
think we just arabbed oysters as being like the sea
ejaculating in your mouth. Oh maybe the brainy taste of Anyway,
(08:07):
we digress. Side note, I do like to pee in
the sea when a minute, just to mark my territory. Yeah,
I feel like this is my bit. So I was
looking it up because it popped into my mind and
AD popped up on my computer for it. I have
used it. And then I had this kind of memory
(08:28):
about a friend of mine, my friend Ash, about ten
fifteen years ago. So I was looking up Cremlon because
I was looking at the current price, and I'm pretty
sure when we were first talking about it it was
about a hundred and fifty pounds. And I said to
my friend Ash, this this cream is a hundred and
fifty pounds because it's got seaweed in it, and he went,
go swimming in the sea. You can't response to to
(08:52):
people who spent a hundred fifty pounds around one almost
of our us that's a lot. How How big is
it like a swimming pool worth of the kremdlin there
or how much how much we target? I don't know,
it's like a little targe a couple of hundred mills,
maybe a slider sized yeah, yeah, realizing that people can't
(09:14):
see what I'm doing hockey puck, so maybe a bit deeper. Yeah,
but I think it's more than one fifty now, I
think it's probably a couple of hundreds. What is the
secret of the sea exactly that makes it so indispensable? Um,
it's the seaweed I think has like massive healing properties.
I think originally the cream was actually developed by a
(09:36):
Swiss doctor who was working on burns and developed it
to work on people's skin who'd had like, here we go,
enough of helping these usd for what size? For a
for what looks like a chapstick? One announce? How does
(09:59):
that compare to to we value of cocaine? Well, it
depends on where you get it, but I wouldn't know allegedly, Um,
but for weed, that's uh, it's more expensive than weed. Well,
depends on what state again it's is it gonna is
it gonna? Is it gonna help your skin though weed? No? No,
it will help your appetite and it will help your
(10:19):
mouth get very dry. Yeah, those are about the things
or and you'll have a panic attack about maybe you
know something that's meaningless. Uh I started. My partner, her
majesty began telling me I should really give a funk
about my skin more because I was relying on my
black and Asian nout to not have a routine aside
from washing it. And she's like, you should use this,
(10:41):
use this after you wash them, Like what the fund
is this? Uh So, I'm I'm not good at it,
but I've been I've been told I should start thinking
about it, and I try to try to remember to
use if that helps, thank you, you know, it's it's
this damn bi racial going on, damned perfect genetics and
(11:03):
parents of mine. Miles has incredible skin. One time, actually
a fame, a celebrity makeup artist said I had great
skin and I used that to never moisturize my face again.
I held onto that to be like, I don't think
I need to do anything. I feel like I had
a small skin victory this morning because I actually washed
my face before putting on moisturizer, which I had been
(11:25):
just putting moisturizer without washing. My wife was like, what
are you doing? And yeah, it did turn my face
very greasy. Yeah, just on top of the morning. Yeah, yeah,
like you're already as you sleep. Yeah, you want, when
you like wipe your face on something for that thing
(11:49):
to immediately become see through, right, exactly, Testy. I'm so
pleased that I've got I've come on and I've got
guys talking about skin. Yeah, dream skin by the way, wonderful.
How many? How many for Anglo? How? What do you say?
What do I use? How many stages of skincare are there? Oh?
(12:11):
I like I've I've I used to go to sleep
in my makeup all the time because I liked waking
up looking fox mudged. But but yes, I used to.
I used to. But now as I've got a bit older,
I've decided that I should be like, I'll just use
a face wash or wipes to take it off at night.
(12:33):
And you know, I turned four last year, so I've
started throwing money at my face a bit more in
terms of expensive cream. Does that work? It's more about
It's more about the texture I suppose of the cream
and stuff and how makeup sits on top of it
and stuff like that. But I just I never really
used to use a separate I cream, which you know,
I got showered at. It was like, it's all skin,
isn't it my face? Yeah? Exactly, that's what That's what
(12:56):
I think. I get hung up. I'm like, ain't it
all the same thing? It's like, oh no, skin around
your eyes is very different. So I think SPF is
probably the thing that I've been trying to do more
more than anything else protected from the side, because I
think that's the bigger that's the big aging. Yeah. Step
one and sorry, just going back to your friend's comment.
So in the Queen's would caun't be between like asshole
(13:21):
and bitch somebody calling you that, because I think if
I called my friend bitch it would still even like
be a little bit more offensive than that sounded than Yeah,
then it sounded coming from her friend to her. Yeah,
I mean it wasn't to me calling me. It was
just saying the people that buy it him In the
seatur plural comes like stopping dicks, but also it is
(13:46):
much more is much more of a term than dim
and in the UK, and it is here. I don't
know whether we can keep these hard season. You might
have to edit the mat we do, you know, because
it's a learning lesson everyone involved. What is something you
think is overrated, Oh overrated, Oh contrarian ism, cheap basic
(14:07):
a f contrarianism. They took us wear out for you guys,
you know the Piers Morgan's of the world, the people
who are sort of coming online and you know the
Katie Hopkins, these kind of people that do such. You know,
they see what the general opinion is and what the
decent way to be a human is and then they
(14:27):
just come out against it for attention. So these aren't
thoughtful positions, they're just basic contrarian is um. It's the
kind of stuff that Piers Morgan does all the time.
And it's also we have a person called Julia Hartley
Brewer in the UK who tweeted a picture of Greta
thinburg Um saying, I've just booked an amazing holiday for
me and my family, flights to the beach at Christmas.
(14:49):
And guess what, Gretter, I don't feel guilty about it
at all. Maybe feel guilty about, you know, trolling an
actual child, but whatever. Yeah, they're they're putting themselves on
the permanent record, you know, they're and that's written in ink,
so they can they can go out there and be
talk a big game. But they're they're going down on
the record as not giving a shit about global warming.
(15:13):
Being contrainued is just such a lazy way to enter
a conversation or get the focus on yourself. It's like, Okay,
I'll say something that doesn't need to be said. I
say the worst thing I can think of, rather than
being nuanced, because nuance is difficult and a lot of
people aren't capable of it. So if you're not capable
of nuance, then shut the funk up and let some
people who are. But the problem is there's too much
(15:33):
of a reward I think now for this type of behavior,
and I'm noticing it in comedy in the UK as well,
Like you know, just the more sort of right contrarian
you can be, the higher the prize, the more the reward.
Because they're like, we need both sides, and you're like,
what you need another side to being a decent human
because a lot of this isn't about sides. This is
about questioning people's humanity, right right, right, It's like, what's
(15:57):
the counterpoint to being a kind person? We need more
of that? What do you think is underrated? Aging? Weirdly,
as I've just talked about what standpoint. Well, I just
so I'm staying at my friends and he has a
roof pool and I was up there the other day
and just I just sort of packed up my stuff
(16:17):
and I was leaving an incame a woman. It was
so iconic. I would say she was like late sixties.
Her body was incredible, the lips were I'm going to say,
you know, if I was to take a thing away,
like a little bit overdone. But she was in swimming crossing,
but she had like a spritzer in one hand, a
wine spritzer, and she looked like she was dragging a
case in. I was like, oh, she's here with a kite.
(16:39):
And then there's only as I went past her, I
realized that she had her Yorkshire Terrier in the case.
And I was like, this is my this is goals
for me. This is that one day I want to
get to my late sixties be at a roof pool
with my white wine spritzer and my tiny dog in
like a rolling yeah dog. I was hoping you're going
(17:01):
to say the rolling thing was actually a cooler with
more white anywhere. I was just like so iconic, and
I think we often look at aging in such a
negative way. But actually there's something to be said for
like letting go of giving a ship about what other
people think of just kind of like living your best life.
(17:22):
And um yeah, I was just like that is iconic.
I want to be like that. That's my goals. Or
Dolly Parton, who just seems to be there was like
a picture of her up on a website the other day,
one of those awful like I want to say, like
the Daily Mail sidebar, I don't know what the equivalent
of it here would be. Well, people, we also check
out the Daily Fail here for trash Ukraine. Adaption story
(17:46):
comes from right. So it was like that. And then
it had a website called Cars and Yachts. It said
underneath and it said click on this. This picture of
Dolly Parton without makeup will make you want to skip lunch.
And I was like, no, that won't make me want
to skip lunch. Will make me want to buy lunch
that paid for myself, which money I've made from working hard.
Live maderine like Dolly and my salad dressing will be
(18:08):
the male tis of men who are upset that Dolly
has a bigger yacht on car than they do like, well,
I think also that especially those weird clickbait things that
are always being served in the bottom of every website,
it's always just some nonsense, delacious garbage that is never
actually what it says. It is, like, you know, it
may just be a photo where it was like her
(18:29):
younger like looking different, and they're like, anyway, you click,
sorry you got, we got the click we got you
have the temerity to age and keep living. But to
me so that I was actually, I think she's better
than she's ever been. She's like, had this amazing career
and yeah, she continues to do great stuff and not
give a ship what people think. That's why. I just
(18:50):
think aging and I think all parts of culture are
starting to like kind of come around to her being
a national treasure, like just every like, it's not just
you know, people from Tennessee anymore. I think every everyone.
I think everyone knows Dollies. She's Dolly, She's the best,
She's our Dolly. Um And yeah, there have been psychological
(19:11):
studies that say that people generally like get happier and
happier as they age. Um is that as they realize
they let go of all the bullshit they thought was significant, right,
because you are a learning organism, like as a human being,
you get better at doing life unless you know, unless
you don't, in which case you might not make it
(19:34):
long enough to get happier and happier as you age.
I think there's a point, and I think that probably
happens in your thirties. I think for me it was
where there's a change. Is it used to be? When
I was younger, I was obsessed with what everyone else
thought about me, and now I just it's what do
I think? Right? Well? Yeah, all that validation has to
come internally first, right, yeah, yeah, because if you seek
(19:55):
it externally and it's it'll be fleeting m hm. And
only what is a myth? What's something people think is true?
You know to be false? The queues are good queuing. Yeah,
so this is like in America, if I see a
queue for somewhere, a line, a line, Yeah, you call
it a line, right. So if you see a line,
you're like, that thing is good, that thing is great.
(20:18):
That means that's happening. Yeah, that means there's there's good
times ahead usually or something very hyped. Yeah. Right. So
but if you see a queue in the UK or
a line in the UK's normally because the service is bad. Yeah,
I assuming is like, oh, they're upside down in that
kitchen or something. Yeah, it just means that they haven't
got their ship together and now we're waiting ages. So
(20:39):
if you see a cue, your first assumption is like, yeah,
I swerve it. I don't think that looks so amazing.
Papa's strategy of just not having very many chicken sandwiches
would not have worked in the UK. They would have
just been like, well, that's stupid of you. One of
those coming back, by the way October October, maybe like
(21:01):
a few limited run of sandwiches until they can get
their supply chain together. All right, we're gonna take a
quick break. We'll be right back, and we're back. And
(21:22):
uh Fox speaking of people having problematic takes when it
comes to global warming, and Greta Thunberg, the so a
right wing podcast host, came on Fox News and called
her a mentally ill sixteen year old, and Fox was like,
(21:43):
we apologize. We would never uh say something rude about her,
would never see something rude about a white person. I
feel like what the real take was. Meanwhile, we played
you a clip on yesterday's episode. There was a dude
on Fox and Friends who said she's a fearmonger who's
giving children around the world anxiety disorders. There is also
(22:06):
like one of the gemstones in their gauntlet. Laura Ingram
called her creepy and compared her to Children of the Corn,
so basically like making fun of her manner of speaking,
because she's like all very it's just all very like
surface level like catty ship doesn't to be making fun
of a child about but that's the But those are
(22:28):
like the that's where we're at, right. They can't argue
the facts that are in front of them that this
is an issue. So it's like, well, we're gonna lose
that argument, so let's just be let's just be even
more fucking fucked up and just be like what about
her though? Huh Yeah, it's the complete role reversal, though,
isn't it. She's behaving like an adult and they're all
behaving like absolute children. Yes. Someone tweeted recently too, is
(22:49):
like it's really interesting to see critics be like, look
at this child like whining and stuff like that. Are
the same people who were saying, like Brett kavanaughs blowout
during his confirmation was righteous indignation. Of course. It's like,
really because this person wasn't even yelling. And what I'm
going out for Halloween, by the way, I'm going dressed
as a teenage girl who wants to save the world.
Apparently that's terrifying running my own house. Yeah, kill it,
(23:16):
destroy it. I mean I feel like, sure, can these
people go to bed at night and put their head
on the pillow and feel okay about doing that? They
can because I'm sure like anything, Right, It's like people
who pivot to audience to audience because their bottom line
is the affection or the attention. It's not about what's good. Yeah,
they're in it for money, publicity, and that's it. That's why,
(23:39):
because you've never I've never seen people really show any
kind of any sort of virtue anyway. Yeah, and so
they also assume everybody else is in it for that.
They're like, oh, come on, like you are. Um. But yeah,
it's funny to hear Fox News call anyone a fearmonger,
right when that is like their game. Uh, it's it
(24:01):
really is like the um. In People's History of the
United States, they write about how the us UH Department
of Defense changed its name from War Department to Department
of Defense, right at the very moment that they started
waging offensive wars. Like it was. It's basically like you
(24:22):
say the opposite of what you're actually doing, because you're trying.
Like it's a good way of if you're dealing with
people who are this full of ship, just see what
they're saying, and that can tell you exactly what they're
actually doing. That's incredible. But by the way, just pick
up Zimmerman. Yes, it's in. How it's in, Yeah, for sure,
(24:47):
I now need to reread it, actually, because that's how
I imagine it's pretty pertinent for the stuff that's happening
at the moment. George Carlin said that as well, didn't
He He had a great routine about how the meanings
of words changed, you know, how eventually was like shell
shock became PTSD, became these ways of sweetening right words
and meanings so that they lose the kind of impact
(25:11):
when you're talking about war or when you're talking about devastation,
to say things like rather than go um, you know,
we don't say third world anymore, we say developing nation.
But then you know, if you talk about poverty and
you use the hard pain, you say poor, that really
forces people to think about it developing. It's like a polaroid.
(25:35):
Eventually you'll see an image of a starving child. Yeah,
it's having a glow up. Just you know, it's a
little awkward right now. But actually they'll blow up to
second world I don't know, yeah, yeah, yeah, there a
lot of those things do mitigate sort of the impact
of and in fact, third world country started as just
a way of describing any country that was not either
(25:57):
like part of the US sort of him of influence
or the USS are like USSR was second world, we
were first world. And then any any countries, bonus countries,
country that could still be influenced, was still up for grabs,
was considered third world. And then it eventually became like
a way of describing uh, developing nations. All right, let's
(26:19):
talk about the scandal with Trump the whistle blower Ukrane.
It will never end, It always gets I mean, there
was nothing new so far. I mean because amazingly Rudy
Giuliani and Donald Trump have admitted to every They just
keep admitting that. They keep saying that. Yeah, he admitted
(26:42):
he called the president Ukraine. He admitted that it was
about Joe Biden. He admitted that he was withholding the
military aid. Yeah, so there's no mystery here aside from
what the actual whistle blower complaints says Um. And again,
when you look at just sort of the timeline of events,
it's clear that anyone who was in Trump's orbit knew
there was a whistleblower complaint around early September. And I
(27:06):
think and there are many people online who are sort
of thinking, well, based on everything you're seeing, right, because
the funds were being held withheld even before that phone
call took place, and there was a bipartisan group of
senator or congress people who are like, what's going on
with this money that we allocated as Congress to aid, Like,
what's going on with that? Mick mulvaney said it was
the funds had to be frozen over concerns quote unquote
(27:29):
that the president had but could not elaborate. So that
was already stinking like ship. And then you have Rudy
Giuliani constantly going and be like, I'm going to Ukraine.
You know, Biden's doing this thing. Trump isn't doing stuff
with Ukraine. So it's been I think probably known for
the very like for the all the sycophants that are
Trump's main defenders in the Senate in the House that
(27:50):
this was coming, which is probably why on September eleven
they finally released the funds um and then a week
later then we start hearing that there's a whistleblower complaint.
So it's it's really timed with September eleven in the
hope that no one would notice the September No. I
think it just happens. It just happened to be the
date where they attached it to a different spending bill,
(28:12):
so it had to get so the money had to
move um. And I think that was mostly because I
think if the Republicans in the Senate and House are
sort of like, if it comes out that the money
is still being withheld and there's a whistleblower complaint, it's
completely fucked. It's like, if we're gonna do anything, maybe
this is our only shot. But now you still have
people like John Cornyn saying like, oh what you would
(28:34):
you say, tramp in a new crane. I don't know,
no, no no, no, what, I've never heard anything about this,
like or saying it's rumors, that's just all bullshit, and
it's just it's really starting to stink because now you're
I'm sure there are man like everything, there's always people
involved into cover up, but like the number of people
who are probably in the Senate Intelligence Committee or House
(28:54):
Intelligence Committee on the right must have known something. And
it's just starting to look darker and darker, and the
cover up is starting to you know, fizzle out a bit. Yeah,
so the foundation is slipping a bit. Yeah, I mean,
at least with this, right, because this is differently. You know,
with the Mueller Report, it was easy to you know,
spin all this ship about it and be like stealed.
(29:17):
There were too many things they could use to distract people.
This is so different. Yeah. Well, I mean he wasn't
president during the Mueller like the events that were being Mueller. Uh.
And now this is directly about somebody using the power
of the presidency for their own corrupt political gain. Um.
(29:37):
And yeah, it's also just it's being investigated right after
it happened. Uh, it's very It's like whereas with the
Muller Report, and you know, the Muller investigation, there were
you know, thousands and I think they like turned over
millions of pages of documents, like there was just so
much stuff. This is just a very clear cut Uh.
(30:00):
You know, this is him doing what we've always known,
he was doing what other people might have suspected he
was doing. Uh, just in a very like focused clear way. Yeah. Well,
I think now that we have more moderates moving into
the impeachment column. Yeah, it seems like now Nancy Pelosi
(30:24):
can finally do something. Yeah, it seems like they're moving
in the impeachment direction, the direction of at least starting
the process of impeachment. Yesterday morning, if he checked Drudge,
they had the spinning siren, which he usually reserves for
huge news stories. Uh, and it said impeachment. So it
(30:45):
seems like he at least thinks the signs are pointing
in that direction. And there was a meeting yesterday with
Pelosi and who was it, the entire Democratic caucus, the
entire Democratic Caucus, just to be like, all right, what's
the game plan here and see what happens. I'm not
sure what has happened. We don't know what has come
out of that meeting yet. Um, I'm sure people do
(31:06):
by now, But I think the one thing to look
at those like there's some you know, many people were
wondering why Nancy Pelosi was waiting for so long? Was it.
One theory was like, she's just trying to slow cook
Trump out of office. Um. Other people was like, you know,
maybe it's a Tip O'Neil type deal where he he
knew from the beginning. He's like, this is going to
lead to impeachment, but we'll just let everything fall apart
(31:28):
and then people will be more compelled to do this,
which I think maybe is what's going on. Or maybe
she was just so shook at the idea that a
botched impeachment attempt would lead to losing the majority in
the House and a lot of these freshman congress people
who just flipped districts would just be ousted. Um. But
now many things have changed again, there's no mystery around
(31:49):
this scandal. Everyone is admitting basically to what had happened.
And the seven freshmen, Uh, there are seven freshmen from
swing districts, which are the ones that were primarily Republican
districts that went blue. Seven of them who have national
security clearances penned and op ed that were like, these
are impeachable offenses, and that's that's what's different because the
(32:11):
people Nancy Pelosi was worried about a lot of these
freshmen are out here now saying no, this is bullshit,
this is impeachable. This is the These are the people
she was supposedly like holding back because of right And
I think now though too, because these are the people
with national security clearances. Maybe they feel that this specific
event is so clear that it will be very easy
(32:33):
for them to explain, even to their constituents, who are like,
you're just some Pelosi fucking progre It's like, no, wasn't
the fucking navy. I understand national security. I took a
fucking oath to protect the country from enemies foreign and domestic.
I'm saying, what this, what happened here is unacceptable, like
having a president blackmail and other world leader for their
(32:53):
own PARTI is in gain is an absolute abuse of power,
no matter how you cut it. Yeah, do you feel
like this is the thing that will typic? I though,
because I feel like you keep thinking it will happen,
and you're like, surely this is impeachable, and then nothing.
He's like teflon, Yeah, I mean, you know, if we
it seems like the House can get the votes eventually
to move impeachment proceedings forward. It's that when it goes
(33:16):
to the Senate and becomes a trial is where it
gets a little sketchy because the numbers aren't Therepublican yeah,
unless they find their spine. But again, I think part
of this process too, will be to get as much
of this information out and make that position of defending
the president untenable. But I don't know if that's Watergate moment.
I guess where Republicans say that they can't in all
(33:36):
good consciousness side with yeah, you need that moment that
they had with Nixon yea. Whether it's in terms of
careerism or whether it's in terms of consciousness and timing
is interesting because like by the time if it does
get to the Senate, like that'll be like with too
little time for them to put a different candidate up,
won't it? Like I mean when would what would be
(33:58):
the absolute last drap to date for them to like
start thinking about, okay, maybe we run, uh you know who?
What's the if it's like bending in that direction as
the elections approaching, Like what would their political calculations be,
Like I'm not sure what the mechanics would be of unprecedented, unprecedented, unprecedented.
(34:23):
I'm sure there's been like this, and that I can't
I can't really recall. I mean, Nixon was a lame
du like he was in a second term when all
this ship went down and he had one in a landslide,
unprecedented landslide. So it was like they really had to
bring some evidence to get people. I think the problem is,
(34:45):
right the Republicans have embraced Trump to the point where
they have already been poisoned by his radioactivity, and to
then turn against him because already the Republicans are facing
an existential threat as a party where younger people are
more and more not convinced that conservative politics aligns with
(35:06):
their own values. So they're having trouble bringing new people
to then be like, oh, yeah, this guy was a
massive funk up would be like what happened? Like where
was your leadership? So I don't know why I'm even
asking the question of like, there's no way the Republicans
are gonna like abandoned Trump. But again, I guess that's
the thing. Maybe they could have a come to Jesus
moment and if if they want to move forward, you
would have to say something like we were completely were
(35:30):
fucked up. We fucked up. This is actually wrong. I'm
sorry now we're saying something and I'm sorry all this
ship happened. We really fucked up. And then they'll probably
all get voted out for admitting I don't know. It's
a it's a it's not an enviable position, which is
why so many people are just fucking off out the
back door and not we're not running again, They're just
like retiring. Yeah, it does seem like it would be
catastrophic for the Republican Party at least. I mean, it
(35:53):
seems like this whole Trump the rise of Trump, has
been catastrophic for them. But um, you know, I also
don't think that he's going to go without a fight.
I don't think it'll be so easy that they just
get Republicans on board. One thing that does seem to
be developing is that Biden's take on all this, since
(36:14):
he is at the center of Trump's reason for abusing
his power, is kind of interesting because he's like taking
this as his opportunity to like take center stage, and
he's like, well, the reason they're mad is because they
know I'll beat him like a drum and so I
(36:35):
do think if he does become the nominee, there will
then be this like both sides of them, where they'll
be like, it'll just be the Republicans will have to
make a case that there was some something that needed
to be investigated about Hunter Biden's position on the that
gas company, which it's shady as fuck. I mean, it's absolutely,
(36:58):
I mean it's smacks of the kind of thing that
like children of geopolitical players like can just fall ass
backwards into. It's like you're on the board of Ukraine. Okay,
interesting because you're so into gas. Yeah, I mean the
only thing he had experience with was you know, getting
sucked up and you know, trying to get sober. So
there was he had no experience did I experienced with gas?
(37:21):
But just not that guy, that loud hu that Gasolina
as I say. I mean, even when the sort of
rumors about this sort of scandal came out like months ago,
I was like, yeah, I figure that out, because I
would love to find a reason to disqualify Joe Biden
from running, like just objectively be like, yeah, this guy's
self dealing with his kids. I mean, so as the president,
(37:41):
that's the problem though, if they go head to head,
it's going to completely obscure what this election is about.
It's gonna be like which fucking asshole do you like
better or worse, because they're both gonna be like, well
you did that, well you did that. Russ getting some
other candidates like a Bernie or Elizabeth Warren who is
not going to be there not, there's not gonna be
this whole like, well, they're in bed with the fucking
whoever the Fox. Those criticisms you can sort of at
(38:05):
least if you're a hyper part is in Republican, you're
gonna be like, yeah, man, well that Ukraine deal, like
it is going to be the same ship like the
Uranium one thing with fucking Hillary Clinton exactly to be clear,
like Uranium one. There is like people who are actually
investigated this say that like Biden did nothing improper, like
his son, it was probably taking advantage of his father's
(38:28):
position in office. But when Biden like had this guy fired,
it was like after that would have been a relevant
move right and like relevant to his The timeline just
doesn't add up like this. This case was dropped before
Biden even said anything publicly about this prosecutor. So you
can't say that that was there's no cause and effect there.
But it's difficult, isn't it, Because during the debates and stuff,
(38:51):
people have been talking about the candidates holding back on
each other. But you can kind of see why that's
necessary because otherwise it's always exploited by the republic. But
they're gonna and I think, but yeah, slowly the debates
are going to start moving in that direction, as Bernie
is going to need to. You know, everyone's confusing him
and Elizabeth Warren for their policies being the same, you
(39:13):
though there are huge differences. I mean, Bernie today it
was just sort of like, I think billionaires shouldn't exist.
So I'm about to take a big gas bite out
of that fucking account if from president. Okay, I funk
with that, but you know, I think so there's that brewing,
then there's Biden, who's probably gonna have to start punching
around depending, you know, because Elizabeth Warren is now in
a statistical tie with him in the Iowa voting polls.
(39:37):
So yeah, I'm not sure when it's maybe the next
debate we'll see a little bit of handbags as it were. Yeah,
but the one thing that's clear is if it is
if Biden does end up being the nominee the Republican Party,
and Trump will be beating that story like a drum.
Yeah yeah, Uh alright, let's talk about how millennials killed
the m track dining Yeah, so time for my generation
(40:00):
to sea walk all over another grave. We've done it, millennials.
This time we killed the Amtrak dining car. No. Now,
for those of you who are not familiar with the
Amtrak dining car, it was of the country. Yeah. Well,
I mean, hey, our parents know our grandparents, because yeah,
(40:23):
burn the thing down. Uh they you know, who would
have thought that of the most broke generation might not
be into the white tablecloth service of an Amtrak dining
car when you're on a train. Um. But again, what's
interesting about this is that the whole millennial angle came
from the person at Amtrak who was indirectly in charge
(40:44):
for the health of this car. So this guy named
Peter will Ender said, some people really liked the dining car,
and you would a sort of a nostalgic train experience
pivot to some people, especially our new millennial customers, don't
like it so much. They want more privacy. They don't
want to feel uncomfortable sitting next to people. Okay, that's
(41:06):
that's through all of your analysis, That's what it was.
So will people not be able to buy food on?
Come on, this is America, baby, They're gonna sell you
whatever they can. What they're doing. What's funny is the
move that they're doing is actually saving the company money
because what they'll do is basically make it like a
pre order system where before you get on the train,
you say, I would like microwaved to hell pasta, and
(41:27):
then you can pick it up and eat it shamefully
at your seat. Yeah, it's the first class dining thing
and the amtrack like anyone can no matter where. If
there was a part of the plane where you could
get your plane food and like sit with other plane passengers.
But it's like that level of like culinary excellence is
(41:50):
plane food. It is plain food, right, so it's not
good to eat this food miserably on your own, your
like with strangers. Yeah, like orient Express and no statiause.
If it was like an upgrade, it would be different
because we have that on the we have the get
on the night train, the overnight trains got what are
they called? Why can't. I think of the name of them.
(42:11):
To Scotland and back used to be the sleeper trains.
Trains you get like a little birth to yourself. But
then there's also a dining car that you can go
into and you can have whiskey, and it's got a
bar and you can have and so people are a
bit more sociable in that. Yeah, that's the same, it's
the same kind of thing, but but it is is
there a bar in the Amtrak Well, you can buy
like little bottles of liquor there definitely gotten drunk in
(42:33):
share of dining cars, feeling like a giant tiny Yeah,
what's happening to me? You've had your ninth little whiskey.
So it's a similar thing then, yeah, yeah, yeah, but
I think, you know, I don't know. I like the
idea of the dining car, but I think ultimately, when
(42:54):
you're on a train, it's like I'll just sit here.
I'm so used to like plane travel or something else,
or like every thing's done at my seat. But you know,
instead of having drinks with people, they're having drinks and
going on Tinder. Yeah, exactly, watching their TV shows on Tinders,
watching the TikTok's all right, we're gonna take a quick break.
(43:17):
We'll be right back, and we're back, and uh, let's
talk about affirmative action. But for rich white kids. We
mentioned this a little bit in the past that uh,
(43:39):
you know, college sports, we think of you know, college basketball,
college football because those are watchable. Um, but there's all
these other like most college sports at any given college
are sports like you know, lacrosse and rowing and other
(43:59):
things that you have to have a lot of money
to do, right, And so it ends up being a
somebody described it as affirmative action for rich white kids
all by playing one of these like non Big three
type sports exactly right, right right, Yeah. And it's also
(44:19):
like not super competitive. It's just like you go to
a prep school like in the Northeast where this sport
is actually played sick at the regatta, dude, squash, Yeah,
sailing and squash where like easy ways that people's collegiate squash. Yeah.
I love squash because you love a game of squash. Yeah. Um,
(44:41):
it's basically like racquetball with a dead or ball I
believe you mean less bounce less racketball, doctetball in the UK.
But we do squash, do you? But there's lots of
you know, posh, fancy schools there, so that I didn't know.
That's where it came from. I feel like really subverting
it being a working class state school girl playing squash.
(45:03):
Yeah hell yeah, that's like the number one street sport
and the UK squash what's man? Yeah. Yeah, you go
to any council housing you'll see it. Just wild squash
games happening. You can hang out on my block, but
you gotta play me for it squash. Anyways, So, because
Harvard was sued over their admissions policies, we got a
(45:28):
peak into their numbers and it's pretty shocking. Yeah, a
lot of the data came out as evidence because this
woman said the admissions process was unfairly discriminating against Asian applicants,
and so Harvard they're like, okay, well we need to
see the data so we can begin to kind of
assess this. The data became public. But unrelated to that,
these researchers started combing through the data and wow, there's
(45:52):
a I mean, I don't know if you'll believe this
about Harvard University, but I just from what they found
from two thousand nine until they found that forty of
the Caucasian applicants accepted at Harvard were either athletes legacies
meaning their parents had gone there, or children of donors
and faculty. Only about a quarter of those students would
(46:13):
have been accepted to the school without those admission advantages.
So is that legal? Yeah, okay, because I know there's
been this whole obviously there's been this whole admission scandal
sort of thing. Yeah. So what those people did was
pay somebody to change the schools, to change the scores,
or to bribe people, bribe people to pretend like there
(46:36):
was a tiny bit of artifice, whereas this is just
how America works. Yeah, this is just like the networking
where it's like their grandparents paid somebody a long time ago.
I mean, that's the same as you know. That's why
before we started the podcast cast, I was sort of
saying in the UK, if you fail, if you're posh
white man and you fail, you just fail upwards relentlessly
(46:57):
into your prime minister. So so that's the same there.
I mean, if you like Eaton has that and you
know George W. Bush was kicked out of the White
House for being too drunk one time, and like that
that is something that would be life defining for most people.
For him, it was like a bump in the road
that let him know it is time to turn around
(47:19):
and uh, you know, become president. Yeah. When you look
at sort of the mix to like, at first, I
was like, well, surely this doesn't just apply to the
Caucasian students. This like being a legacy or faculty or donor, right, like,
that should be everyone. If you're giving money, your legacy. Okay, Well,
so if you break it down again into the like
four racial categories, twenty seven percent of white students were
(47:42):
likely to be legacies, only five point eight percent for
Black students, nine point five for Hispanic and eleven point
oh for Asian students. So at best, it's over twice
as much as the closest families families who went to
Harvard right or or but they also include like the
dean's interest list or fact are people who are children
(48:05):
of faculty. Yeah, there's like all sorts of ways they
find to let people in who they're essentially doing a
favor for, like their parents or something. There's uh one
thing that you can do where like a student can
apply but then take a year off. So they become
like part of the next year's class. I think, um,
and it's just I don't know, I don't for whatever
(48:29):
reason that makes it easier for you to get in.
But I know kids who did that to specifically go
to Harvard UM. So you're super talented. How many scholarships
are there now for like? They they are not sports based.
Say you're super super clever and you come from projects
or social housing or like, and you scored off the
charts on your S A T. S. That's what you
(48:50):
call them here, right, what are the chances of you
then getting into somewhere like Harvard? I mean, if your
scores are good, there's definitely a chance. I think at
that point it's then about how you come up with
the money for tuition. And some people might get an
academic scholarship, they might get it from outside groups that
they can apply to to get a lot of their
tuition paid for. But it's not I mean, it's hard
(49:11):
to I would it would be hard to say that
Harvard's admission admissions process is meritocratic in any way. Right,
It really seems like this puts a lie to the
idea that they're having to bend over backwards to let in,
you know, people who are from a different class or
people who are you know, not who are from disadvantaged backgrounds.
(49:32):
It seems more like they're bending over backwards to let
in the children of people who they know, like all
those average like a third. Essentially, what this means is
a third of Harvard's Caucasian students don't deserve to be there.
And so in place of that third, uh, you put
(49:55):
like people who despite like you know, having gone to uh,
you know, not prep schools, they went to public schools,
God forbid, uh you know, they get into Harvard and
set of that third, like we have a better country
and general there's gonna say it's not better for everyone,
the spots and the brains and the small people, the
(50:19):
talented people in here, and more diverse mix of people
from different social backgrounds. And I think that's the thing,
because they do point out that even if you took
away all those advantages for those certain things like legacy students,
faculty kids of faculty or whatever, it's not gonna it
wouldn't change the amount of Caucasian students that were admitted,
but it would create a much more economically diverse class
(50:42):
and I think that's the thing is like you go
to Harvard and if you go to Harvard Business School,
like you're just in like predatory capitalism shark school and
you're not and you're meeting other people who are like
being like, yeah, man, we're just gonna make a ton
of money and whatever. Yeah, you're joining a club that
it has access to insane amounts of our and I mean, uh,
(51:02):
in addition for to it just being easier because they're
friends with the parents of these kids, It's hard not
to think that there's some design, some overall design to
this that like you don't let the poor kids in
because the poor kids then might like have a lot
of power and start giving money back to other poor
(51:23):
people instead of by the rules. Yeah, the social dynamics
and the high vocal structures that exist. I mean, it's
wild to me that there is an interview portion of
the admissions process where they're like, okay, but what is
there like socialization, Like do they know how to act
(51:44):
like when you know it's most like, well, they're polished
and know how to do a given interview. You have
test scores, you have your application like essays, you have
your grades, and then you have an interview where previous
graduates sit down and like look you over and decide
how they feel about you. Right, what you're wearing, how
(52:04):
you sit exactly. The question would be like you're in
a life raft and there are two people in the water.
One is an elderly billionaire. He's lived a full life,
he's ninety seven years old, and he says he promises
to make you wealthy beyond your wildest dreams if you
just pull him into the boat. There's only room for
one person. The other person is a disadvantaged asylum seeker
from a country where they're they're fleeing persecution. Who do
(52:26):
you pull into the boat? What do you um? The billion? Okay, great,
welcome to Harvard. Yeah you got it. Let's talk about Gucci.
What's Gucci? Gucci? What's Gucci? Man? What's Gucci? My dude,
I'm wearing a Gucci belt. This is upsetting on stage
because it's the double gs. I want people looking at
(52:50):
I have big boobs. That's just also if I mentioned
it on stage, it is tax deductible, so able to
do that on this podcast. Some chores, But if they've
gone and got themselves into they just seemed to be uh,
who whose line is it? Oh, Charlie Murray, As Charlie
(53:12):
Murphy puts it, perpetual line steppers. They just really like
to piss people off and then apologize, then piss people off,
then apologize. So at Milan's Fashion Week, it ended with
a big show from Gucci that opened with a bunch
of models on a like one of those moving walkways,
(53:34):
and they were all in like white basically like it
looked like straight jackets, like what you would see people
wearing in a mental health institution. And one of the
models happened to have some experience with this and be
a an artist with some backbone model by the name
(53:57):
of Ayesha tan Jones. They wrote a message on their
hands reading mental health is not a fashion and rode
the moving walkway out with that, showing to the cameras
and to the audience. So they were it was basically
a protest in the middle of the show. Well then
even weird too, because like that was just part of
(54:19):
like the intro to throw the audience off because they're like,
what is with all this like monotone ship, like this
is not a Gucci show. And then the lights changed
and then they fucking did the real fashion show as
like some really odd commentary, what is it about, like
fucking society or so well, yeah, their idea was that
(54:41):
this was meant to contrast their actual like fall line,
because that had color. So this was the man trying
to hold you down, the like straight jackets, and then
you know, the their actual fall line was like bringing
color to the lands because it was the strange jackers
(55:03):
were meant to represent. According to Gucci, in a statement,
said the most extreme version of a uniform dictated by society.
So uh that Gucci has apologized and said we're We're
sorry you straight jackets. By the way, I feel like
they were more like of an asylum victorian kind of. Yeah.
(55:23):
I feel like it's more branding. It's more like of
an icon of uh, you know, mental health, the mental
health apparatus than it is, uh something that's actually used anymore.
But I actually don't know. I'd imagine, I'd imagine they
would there would be some form of restraint and then
like a facility like that. But yeah, again, I think
(55:45):
this was more to just say, like, this is why
Gucci is fucking tight. Okay, well, there was sciety is
trying to restrict you. We're trying to do like which
want to free you. Problematic fashion, which trying to free you,
and it will caused you three dollars right right for
this red jacket selling turban to you. I like it
when fashion just puts out like nice looking stuff without
(56:08):
trying to do Politics and fashion do not mix. Stop
trying to do. It always ends badly. It's like the
Black Lives Matter t shirts that were like they're made
by like in a sweatshop. Wasn't it someone like Target
or something? You're like, these things don't Yeah, well, I
think yeah. We've also seen like even last week, I
(56:28):
think there was a stupid design company fashion line that
was doing like school shooting hoodies that was just the
name of high schools and schools that had been you know,
had had mass shootings occur, and they were like, yeah,
it has bullet holes in it, because it's like, you know,
I'm trying to like start a conversation. Yeah, stop trying
to affect wonteness when actually you're just trying to chill
(56:51):
products exactly, and no one has a put like I
just don't think the two things. I don't know. It's
like pride cups from coffee shops that do zero our contracts. Right,
it's like all of that kind of thing. Is that
corporations trying to be like, look how we are? Yeah,
it'd be better if you just put the clothes out
that you want to sell for WUM and go, oh
it's colors? Are they pretty? Does that make sense? Other
(57:11):
than trying to say and with this it was just
like a dumb It was like a stupid idea to try,
and like it wasn't even the clothes weren't even the
problem here. It was like this weird message they were
trying to set up that they completely fucked up and
just came off completely wrong and offended the models that
were like working the show, and apparently they were even
(57:31):
talking amongst themselves like this, are we good with this?
Larger Felt? Did it? Lger? Carla Felt? Did it? I
forgot about this when he was at Chanel and was
celebrated like he was the most amazing person when he died,
and you're like carlogu Felt was pretty much a piece
of ship. But he had models go down the runway
wearing suffragette sashes and like feminism and placards, and I
(57:52):
was like, you're the person who said Adele was too
fat for fashion, Like you cannot now say I'm a feminist,
yeah right, Like it just it's it's such bullshit hypocrisy.
Just do the bit that you're meant to do, which
is designed the clothes and the people who've got the
money can pay for them, be ethical with how you
make them, and then shut up, like shut up? Just
(58:17):
does that make sense? What do you think brands need
to have this? I no, I mean I think if
it makes sense for you to be maybe on a
certain side of a political issue like Nike might or whatever,
I understand that. But they're not. They're not, like I
don't know, the to try and profit off of Like
you know, we've talked about like during Pride, we were
(58:37):
talking specifically about a lot of people like even campaign
candidates selling this Pride stuff they voted against it, yeah,
or that they just or that none of the money
was actually going to an organization, it was just Pride
merged to put in their own coffers for their campaigns
and sort of like, well what is this? I mean, yeah,
I don't think, especially like luxury fashion brands already, we're
(58:59):
dealing with something that I don't know where their places
and the social justice movement. Um, so yeah, I think
it's good for Alessandro mkelly or whatever who's the creative
designer to fucking to do some to get his name,
to wake the funk up more in the sense of, like,
think about what you're even doing. Like, I know you
(59:19):
think it's edgy, but because you're completely removed from like
the nuance and like what these garments are communicating to
other people that you've completely you've done actually the opposite
of what you even wanted to do. And I said
that Alessandro mkelly had or however repronounced it, had apologized.
That isn't true. They haven't apologized yet. But this isn't
(59:41):
the first time that Gucci has gotten in some controversial water.
Back in February, they made a thousand dollar sweater that
when you pulled the uh turtleneck up, had a black
face mouth on it. It was like a black sweater
with like big red lips around a whole for your mouth.
(01:00:03):
I mean, what he did say was it was never
intended to be racist, okay, And in a letter to
employees after the sweater fiasco, mkelly said he was truly
committed to in facing what happened as a crucial learning
moment for everybody. But literally just a couple of months later,
they had a what was essentially a turban on like
(01:00:29):
a white model during one of their fashion shows that
also cost round a thousand dollars on a male model model. Right, yeah,
so definitely a seek. Yeah that's a turban. Yeah, not
like because you know, women went through a phase of
what you know, like slightly smaller. Can you think of
the Hollywood phase of like yeah, that is like a
(01:00:51):
that is a very specific right, And they were even
coming up being like, um, it may be fashion, but
it's also a sacred religious garment. And mckelly again apologize,
saying we will learn a lesson and this company will
do things in a different way. Uh And cut to
this year's fashion week and this straight jacket thing. So really,
(01:01:16):
this guy just seems kind of like an insincere dick, yeah,
or just someone who thinks because he's doing fashion, it's like,
well you can't look at it with these other you know,
like I do look at it through a different lens
because I'm I'm presenting something different. I think that's always
like the mentality of like why they can even allow
themselves to enter that world of thinking or he could
just be straight up racist and you think this is funny.
(01:01:38):
But I think the other thing too is sometimes artists
want to take themselves too seriously and be like, this
isn't about that. Okay, you're missing the point if you're
just looking at this merely as a turban Okay, it's
something forward thinking, but you know, gouchon. Uh well, Tiff,
