Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to season sixty nine, Episode

February eleven, two thousand nineteen. Having breath, lay to my dad.
My name is Jack O'Brien a K. Jacko Bryan Daily. Hi, guys,
(00:24):
take my hand off to Jazy podcast Land courtesy of
Stewart Thomas, and I'm sure to be joined as always
by my co host, Mr Miles Greag. I need it
around the way grave back, it's high with Meg, thank

big green energy at Jordan's learned for that one, even
though I had to add that part at the end.
But yes, we all new something even around the way right?
Who will get high with me? With me? Yes? And
who can twist dutchess effortless lee huh? And we're throwed
(01:09):
to be joined in our third feet by the hilarious
stand up comedian Aaron Holy. Hello. What those are two
of my favorite songs? Yeah, I get yeah, they're both
my ring tones, one for the week and then the
other from the Week for the Week and Samman makes
people realize you mean business. Yeah, every every day I
(01:31):
wake up to the closing song of Mariana Rivera's career
into the Sandman and uh and then around the Girl
on the weekend. For sure. We're excited about your boy, Mariana.
I am, I am. Uh. I just saw like a
T shirt that said like you nan momnus or something
(01:52):
like you put mo in and I was like, yeah, yeah, wait,
what do you do? The Hall of Fame and the
first time ever, it's like one of it's very ever. Yeah,
he's the first unite has ever been. I mean, I
can't remember. I'm not a huge baseball fan, but I
can't remember anybody being as dominant at their position as
(02:15):
he was as a closer, like he was just yeah,
and he's such a good he's such a good story
because he's like a starter and he kept getting he
sent down, you know what I mean. He just was
like a total and then he just like found a
cutter in the off season, like everyone finds, like, you know,
diseases in the off season, and it's like a Hall
(02:35):
of Fame cutter. Yeah. Yeah, so that was exciting. Aaron,
you're a big sports fan. We're going to talk some
sports today by way of Terrible White Guy jazz blues music,
and we're gonna get to know you a little bit
better in a moment. But first we're going to tell
our listeners a couple of things we're talking about today.
We're going to talk about the ongoing revelation of this
(03:00):
date of Virginia and the white population there in and
their problematic nous. We're gonna talk about Dick Toilett making
his big UH appearance, his big premier debutante on speaking
in front of the House UH in such a way
that we could see him and it was impressive. Yeah, yeah, showing, Yeah,
(03:22):
very strong showing. UH. We're going to talk about the
battle we deserve between Jeff Bezos and am I. We've
been talking about am I since before they were a
national before it was popular, before it was a household name.
Just you know, we used to do the watch here
on the Daily Zeitgeist and we like to talk about
(03:44):
how David Pecker was, you know, one of Trump's homies
who would help him out. And turns out that became
national news. And yeah, it's not like we were doing
original reporting. We just read the New Yorker, the only
thing we're breaking is like, yo, have you had that thing?
(04:04):
A taco bet? Yeah, that's the most original report. I
think the most original story we broke was that there
might be cheesy bacon fries coming from McDonald's doubled down
on that. We'll talk about the Green New Deal, We'll
talk about the outbreak of measles, We'll talk about all
sorts of things. But first, Aaron Foley, we like to
(04:25):
ask our guests, what is something from your search history
that is revealing about who you are as a person. Well,
this is a uh, this is a wormhole. I went down.
I had to take a picture because I couldn't remember
the title. But I clicked on it and then I
couldn't stop it said, gut doctor, I bet Americans to
throw out this vegetable. And I clicked on it. Americans.
(04:50):
I beg sorry, Oh, I beg them got it? And
I was like, what vegetable? Oh no, because I eat
a lot of vegetables. And I was like, what am
I eating? That's like ruining my gut? You know when
you clicked on these things, And then twenty minutes later,
I still didn't discover it because it was like, watch
this guy's forty minute video on gut rot and then
(05:11):
like you know how you just get sucked in and
keep clicking and you can never get to the I
was like, oh god, it's three o'clock. I started this
at nine am. Is it selary or you never found out?
I never? Okay, so you Google to be like, what's
just I just kept going and then really it was
like twenty it was. It was one of these things
(05:33):
where then I think at one point I got it
to like then a dollar ninety nine, you know, click
it was just yeah, And so then I just started
guessing it was was that clickbait like at the bottom
of another article, like one of those things. It was
one of those things. It's even doctors are concerned about. Yeah,
(05:54):
it's like these jeans make you look You're like, yeah, yeah,
it was one of those things. But it's always a
shameful experience. But you sometimes you just have to click
on them. They're like, well they got me, No, they
this guy definitely got me. Right. It'll be like a
person who has like had like clearly photoshopped face and
like you'll never guess what celebrity went overboard with plastic
(06:18):
And then you go and it's like, okay, like Muriel Hemingway, right, Yeah,
I just have a like a bad stomach, and I'm
always trying like new things. So I was like, what
do you mean what all vegetables are perfect? Isn't that
troubling that Google knows you have a bad stomach? Of
course it does, because every every time when my computers off,
(06:39):
I have a bad stomach. And then I turned it
back on and it's like, do you have a bad stomach.
We're just gonna guess here. We're gonna throw something out
and you can tell us if we're wrong. What is
something you think is overrated? This sounds ridiculous, but I
was just touring a lot the last couple of months,
and I was in a lot of East Coast really
cold cities, and I had to I had to drink
(06:59):
a lot of hot beverages. So I'm gonna put hot
beverages on overrated, specifically hot coffee. I was drinking cold
brew on like an eight degree day, and I was
totally fine with it. I was just a lot. I
drink a lot of hot beverages, and I'm like, they're overrated.
You know that drinking cold stuff isn't great for your
gut though. I know. Yes, God, doctor, I beg aaron
(07:23):
to drink hot beverages. This vegetable iced coffee. You need
to throw that out. Uh yeah. Any anybody who has
parents from like the old World or relatives from like
Europe or something like has been told like throw out
that cold beverage. My mom for the longest, she only
(07:45):
drinks hot teens and she's like, oh, it's bad for you.
Drink cold water. And I'm like, look, splinter, I'm gonna
get down to beer. Bod this ice water. My mother
in law, anytime I'm sick, she thinks it's because I
drink too many cold beverages, right right, right. And the
air conditioner was one. That's the other one. I was like, oh,
you're gonna die. So it's a draft, the draft, Korean
(08:08):
fan death. What's in a draft? You know? Monsters? That's
exactly right. What's something you think is underrated? All right? Um,
this is this is good guys. Uh yeah, squeeze your
your cigarette butts uh. The quiet car of Amtrak. Okay,
(08:29):
I just did a six and a half hours from
New York to Virginia and then Virginia back to New
York in the quiet car and amtrack because I was
so sick of taking planes because the worst of humanity
or brings out the plane travels the worst of humanity.
And it was a magical experience. It was self policed
and I'm talking to you no, I mean, like, these
(08:51):
two guys sat down next to me. They were quietly talking,
and I was totally fine with that. I just didn't
want anybody yapping on their phones right right right. And
this woman turned around and goes, excuse me, this is
a quiet car. There's absolutely no talking. And I thought, oh,
it's gonna go down. And they go, oh, I'm so sorry,
and they took their ticket and walked to another car.
That's how it started. And I was like, this is
(09:11):
the respect to the quiet car. I mean, it was unbelievable.
It was like everybody's dream sequence. Like on the way back,
this guy was talking on the phone, which didn't happen
for the first like nine hours, and I felt like
empowered and I was, excuse me, sir, it's a quiet car.
There's absolutely no talking on your cell phone. Because I
just had to do it, and he goes, oh, I'm
(09:32):
so sorry. I didn't know this is a quiet card
and he turned off his phone. It was like it
was a dream sequence. It was like being in Japan, right,
like every train is quiet. Well, I didn't realize that
that was like an option, Yes, the quiet And I've
been in the car before, but I hadn't been on
a train in a while, and I and it was
but they took it seriously. It was like a lie.
It was a traveling library. I was like, can I
(09:54):
commute on this train? I mean, I don't have a
job in New York and Virginia? But I was like,
I could get stuff done right. I couldn't. My blood
pressure could go down. No, it was it was just
a little what's the sella that goes from New York
to d C? I think, yeah, because in twenty minutes
(10:14):
in clifty dollars, you literally get there in twenty minutes
if it doesn't fly off the tracks. Remember the early
where they hadn't quite figured it out. Now they're like,
where how am we have a problem with lift? Right?
So fast? Uh? And finally, what's a myth? What's something
(10:35):
people think is true you know to be false? Well,
I mean you know it hasn't been completely fact checked,
but I'm really questioning the myth of apple cider vinegar
because I have it every day, and yet I'm still tired.
My back hurts, my vision is going for distances. That
(10:56):
sounds like you're having a real problem. The person suggested
apple cider vinegar. What did they promise you? If you
google the effects of apple cider vinegar, you get seventeen
pages and it cures everything that's wrong with you. Literally,
it goes down to, like you gotta you know you've
got a bunyan apple cider that like mothers. Yes, okay,
(11:19):
because that's the stuff. I had to bring some apple
cider vinegar to Japan for some relatives and who swear
by it, but it has to be with the mothers.
And I'm like, I don't know what that's the stuff
that's floating sediment. Yeah. Yeah, I'm just saying I thought
I thought it would be a miracle, you know, And um,
(11:40):
I'm not saying it doesn't. I'm just saying, easy, easy
apple A drink in a day. You're supposed to have
like a tablespoon a day, right, and then you cut
like drink and then I have a couple of glasses
I want at night and then I wake up and
I feel like a little fuzzy. I'm like, when is
this apple cider vinegar going to start? Wait? So sorry,
the with mothers thing you guys just said to me,
(12:02):
I felt like I was having a stroke. So yeah,
it's crazy when someone says, yeah, it makes you get it.
With the mother's Okay, basically, the mother's is the stuff
on the bottom. Well, there's one brand that everyone swears
by that they drink. There's a version that No, there's
a version of that brand that does not have mothers,
and there's one that is that brand with mother It's
like the kbuch like the mother plant of the kombucha.
(12:23):
Got it. It's it's like it's like sort of the
same thing. You know how people grow like they have
to get like the mother plan of this in your closet.
It's like a pulpy people grow. You. I don't know
anything about bootsch growth. You're deep in this. I'm only deep.
It's not even a hipster thing. It's lesbo lan Okay,
(12:44):
it's I. I have so many freaking lesbos in my
life that are growing kombucha and they're freaking you know?
Is that the new thing? Dog closet whatever that means.
It just flew out of my mouth. But they're like, well,
we gotta get that. The mother has to be in
a quiet, dark place. I'm like, do you or what
you're saying? So it's like what lesbians like. It's like
weed growing for lesbians right now, I grow my own
(13:05):
booch right yeah, no, I'm serious. Yeah, the real hipster
booch thing hit like peak mass when I was at
a show and all the cocktails, the only mixers they
had were kombucha, like you want to jack and booch
and I was like, get the funk away from oh
my god, and I was like, you don't have anything else?
Like no, it's like all kombucha based cocktails. L a
(13:26):
fucking needs based cocktails, and the flavors do not go
well together. And I'm sure some barre you know person
is gonna be like, actually you should try and like this,
and if you do, invite us to your bar to
drink unlimited for free on just just disclosure. I am
gay so I can say, Lesbie, I don't want your things,
(13:47):
like who the hell is this, lady fella? And I
just based on my Mariano rivera knowledge should that should
have been your cue, but just in case. All right,
well we're on the subject of New York sports. We
are pivoting the w m b A because, Uh, just
(14:07):
before we started recording, I revealed something that I thought
everybody knew who was a New York sports fan. But
James Dolan, former owner of the New York Liberty, who
sold them, I guess he kicked them out of the garden.
Kicked them out of the garden. Also, just the worst
team owner ever. I think people generally agree the worst
(14:28):
for people who are not literate, and James Dolan. People
to explain why he's so bad. He inherited a giant
company from his father and also the ownership of the
New York Knicks. Uh, they have been atrocious for basically
twenty years millennia. Yes, and based almost exclusively on hiring
(14:49):
decisions that he has made. Uh. And they would have
had an amazing run post Lebron's decision. Lebron and Dwyane Wade,
it has now been revealed, wanted to go to the
Knicks and like bring basketball back to New York and
you know, just make the Knicks grade again. And they
met with James Dolan and came out of that, like
(15:10):
we're going to Miami. Guy is a His pitch presentation
was a concert. Yeah, so that's what we just talked
about right before we start recording. He has a band
that he plays in that he sings in uh sings
in quotes. They're called j D and the Straight Shot,
(15:33):
and they are breathtaking because they're all so he's maybe
early sixties, mid sixties, and he has hired he has
hired a bunch of you know, twenty two thirties something
musicians to hang out with him, and you know the
(15:54):
straight Shot. Yeah, be the straight Shot, and it is
among the worst things you will ever experience if you
look them up on YouTube. We will play a little
segment of j D in the Straight Shop for you
right now. This is called better find a Church, Find
your church guys. Oh yeah, uh huh, really you're moving
(16:14):
really okay. Just so you know, it's four people standing
in the pus. You don't see the bass player. Everyone's
holding a guitar, but no one's playing. There's seventeen basketball
players crying in the back room. So he got an
actual singer to sing over him. So it seemed like
(16:37):
he was harmonizing with something but it's just that he's
wearing like a pork pie trying to look like an
edgy music. It's really cringe e. I was already cringing
when you're like, oh he sings like jazz or blues
or whatever, garbage just coming out of his mouth. I was.
And then the first song you hit pull up is
better find a Church. I'm like, it's too much. Yes,
(16:59):
And he is just one of the great unintentional sources
of comedy in the world. And he's in charge of
like the Knicks and the Liberty, you know what I mean.
It was it's so it's so bad. I mean, the
garden is like it's so iconic, and it's such a
you know, it's not this monster cathedral like it it's
(17:20):
almost such a great it's almost like a church of sports.
It's a great place to see a game, you know
what I mean, Like it's it's it's a really great
uh court, Like it's not you don't there's no bad seats,
Like it's amazing. We want to go. The Knicks were
just revealed to be the most valuable franchise I think
in the NBA, not in sports. Yeah, I mean some
(17:41):
of us remember when the garden was eaten. Okay, great plug. Anyways,
you were saying that The Liberty now play in in
a nursing home in Westchester. Uh you know, they literally
playing like a community gym. But the nets owner just
bought them. Oh good. So there's the Japanese guy. I
(18:05):
think he's got the controlling steak or forty Night or whatever. So, uh,
I didn't I don't remember his name, billionaire, Yes, Joseph Si.
So Joseph S. I sorry, I just screamed out the
Japanese guy, which is, uh, well, that's what they say.
I was born in Virginia. I just didn't know his name,
(18:25):
but I was screamed in delight. I was like, who
is this guy? I love him because it's it's ridiculous
they have. But anyway, the whole point is, I think
they have a lot of stuff already booked for the
summer in um Barclays, So I think it's maybe next
summer they'll come, but they'll do some games at Barclays
and more on the roads. I don't know. It's just
like the Liberty was is when I lived in the city,
(18:48):
Like it was so fun. You know. The whole thing
is like you see these little girls and they're wearing
Tina Charles jerseys, like and like, you know, we never
got to do that growing up. So it's so important
and it's such a fun sport and uh, it's such
a family affair and it's awesome and to lose that
in the city is heartbreaking. Yeah, but I believe you
(19:09):
had to clear out some space for j D. In
the straight shot, they're touring exclusively a Madison Square garden,
which he owns. In the men's room. Yes, yes, let's
talk Virginia. You were just there riding trains and Virginia. No, no, no,
the guy was not from Japan. So this has turned
(19:33):
out to be such a trend in Virginia, the wearing
black face in school yearbooks, that a group of activists
from Richmond has put together a go fund me to
pay students from historically black universities to go through yearbooks
and look for evidence of racist behavior and imagery. And
(19:54):
I feel like this is going to be just one
news break after another world that will last for years
to Yeah. I mean, because after the Mark Harrying thing,
or the a G of Virginia, his black face scandal,
Ralph Northam's black face scandal. Then we found out last
week that the Republican Virginia State Center Tommy Norman, who's
(20:15):
the majority leader of the Chamber, was the editor of
the v m I Virginia Military Institute's yearbook and call, yeah,
your face is so damn black. Uh with again just
more black face in the yearbook. So, but the headlines
were weird. It's like Virginia politician oversaw yearbook with black face.
I'm like, let's let's say overseas with black FaceTime, right anyway,
(20:37):
But yeah, it's just you know, it's a thing. But
I mean, I don't think this is necessarily a lot
of the takes are hyper focus on Virginia. This is
a worldwide thing. But yeah, right now it's Virginia's turn
in the hopper because yeah, now we have just straight
up go fund means where we're doing grassroots OPO research
where they're like, go through every person who's serving in
Virginia politics, and then then then aren't moving south, right,
(21:01):
and then go to your Georgia yearbooks and you go
to your Alabama. I mean, I mean, this is it's
tough to say because it's well, it's all just so
deeply horrifying. But people go, oh my god, I'm shocked,
and you're like, oh, oh, you're shocked. Do you read
a page? Have you? Literally there's any site of history
in the Deep South or pretty much anywhere, you know
what I mean. But that I had a friend of mine.
(21:22):
He's he's probably like in his fifties. He's a comedy
club book or he's he's one of the good guys.
And he we text back and forth all the time.
And he went to University of Georgia in like late eighties.
And because we're talking about Virginia politics when I was
going down there and whatever, because he booked the show
in Virginia, and he was like, this is literally what
happened when I was in Georgia. He's like, they would
(21:43):
do the frat parties, would do Confederate parties, like the
Spirit of the South parties, and people would come in
KKK outfits and black face. He's like, this was just
like literally all the time, Like millennials had golf pros
and tennis homes parties, we had straight up Confederate ship right. Yeah.
He's like, so, I mean this is gonna be in
everybody's you know, you do a little digging, you're gonna
(22:06):
this is like everybody was doing run DMC is right
and moonwalks and how about his wife was like that's
not appropriate, and he likes smirked inappropriate circumstances, and he's like,
my wife says inappropriate circumstance. I literally was like, your
whole life is an inappropriated The lady says that somebody
(22:27):
pointed out that if you are surprised that this takes place,
you should know that there is a school in Virginia
called Lee Davis. Uh their high school in Archanicsville, in Mechanicsville, Okay,
and their team mascot name is the Confederates. And lest
you think that you know, it's named after Bobby Lee
(22:50):
and uh viola h it is. Actually their their logo
has no don't Robert E. Lee and Jefferson like just
standing shoulder to shoulder. I was really hoping it was
Bobby Lean Violet, right. I guess it's those two guys. Well,
you know Robert E. Lee Community Center for White Folk, right, yeah, essentially,
(23:14):
and Jefferson Davis wasn't even I mean he was born
in Kentucky, I think, right, But they just love that
he was the president of the Confederacy and the capital
of the Confederacy was in Virginia. So there there it is, baby,
you know, proud of their heritage. Right, here's my question
for you guys. If I just was thinking about this, like,
(23:36):
if it keeps unfolding, right, let's say you get you know,
your top fifteen people in line for Virginia all have
black face scandal scandals, then do you just we replaced them?
Just keep going, like you just keep going. We replaced
their statehood with Puerto Rico State perfect, Like where does
it stop? Do then you go, well, my black face
(23:58):
story was actually a little bit better than your black friend.
So I'm gonna keep my attorney general job, but you
have to quit the governorship. I think the only way
to settle it is a dance off. R Curtis Blos
Michael Jackson, all right, we're gonna take a quick break.
We'll be right back, and we're back. And I was
(24:30):
claimed to talk about one Matthew Whittaker A K. Dick
Toilet aka the acting Attorney General. Uh. He went to
the House on Friday to testify before the Judiciary Committee,
and they, you know, wanted answers about his involvement in
(24:51):
the Mueller probe, and you know other things, other ethical
issues like how come you didn't refuse yourself when all
the ethics experts like, recuse your fucking self, dick toilet,
like literally the Department of Justice ethics they were like
advisors were like, okay, so the ethical thing to do
(25:11):
is okay, I'm looking at everything. Yes, you have been
rated conflicted, dick toilet, and I think you should recuse yourself.
But he was like, no, no, I'm good. I'm good
just because I wrote some hot op eds about how
it's a bullshit which Hunt doesn't mean whatever. Also, could
I just could you remind me what the definition of
recuses an ethical right? If you could just freshen up
(25:32):
those definitions, because I've never learned them while I was
shaving my head with my Nazi night right, right, right.
So he wanted to prove that he had nothing to hide.
So on Thursday night he he said he would go
and testify on Friday, giving people a lot of a
(25:52):
lot of time to prepare and be ready for that.
So at first he was really just dragging his feet,
and he's like, well, I have I'm not repaired because
I don't even know what they want to talk about.
And Jerry that was like, that's so, that's verifiably false.
I sent you a letter outlining what we wanted to
question you about, so shut the funk up. Check your
fax machine, man, And he was like, well, I don't know.
(26:13):
I mean like to drag his feet more. And now
there was like, I will fucking subpoena you to get
down here answer these questions if you don't come down,
and then Whittakers like, well, if you're subpoena me, I'm
not gonna like, well, I don't want to do that.
That's just you know, let's not take it there. And
then in place dumb the Department of Justice duty. So
(26:37):
he basically then Nadler was like, Okay, find subpoena's off
the table, but bring your ass here and you better
answer these questions. Don't make this difficult for us because
we're we have an oversight role in the government as Congress,
and he was like okay. High then they got an
argument over the subpoena by saying well, I'm not gonna
come if you subpoena me. But he's like, if you're here,
(27:00):
I won't have to subpoena you because you're here if
you will have already been here, it's just again, what
is the subpoena? It was like an argument that you
have when you're a child with like another kid, like
where it's just like you, Okay, fine, I guess you
win that argument just by sheer like, yeah, there's word,
(27:21):
but no actual acknowledgment of the logic behind it all. Anyway,
this is what happens when you go from like g
e Ed in Kansas to literally Attorney General of the
United States of America. You know, I mean there's no
when you have no education or just basic grasp of
how the government literally works. Yeah, you're missing some pretty
(27:41):
astounding engineering fits in between the where he created a
toilet for people with huge ditch and Rachel Matto describing
that trying to get around the toilet was one of
the funniest things I've ever She's like, this makes me uncomfortable,
but I'm just gonna he Well, he made a toilet,
and I was like, please keep going. This is the
best thing ever manhood. Anyway, So cut to the House
(28:07):
Judiciary Committee is hearing, and it was uneventful in the
sense that he didn't say anything really meaningful or give
real answers. At times, he even pushed back against like
GOP congressmen who are like their line of questions, but like, uh,
you know, I'm here to talk about stuff with the
d O J. This is like really, this is all
over the place. And at one point Jerry Nadler, who
(28:28):
is the chairman, was you know, had like real questions
like why didn't you accuse like have you you know,
had to oversee any decisions being made about them, just
basic stuff about them, all investigation, and he was like
humming and high trying to run the clock out because
everyone has five minutes to question anyway. Just listen to
this genius defensive move by Dick Toilett when Jerry Nadler
(28:51):
is being like trying to question him about them. All
investigation in your capacity is acting at to any general
Have you ever been asked to approve any request or
action to be taken by the Special Council, Mr Chairman,
I see that your five minutes is up, and so
i'm we we we we I am I'm here voluntarily.
(29:13):
We have agreed to five minute rounds. And have I
mentioned that my dick is too big for my toy. Actually,
can I get one of the dick chairs? I don't.
I can't say in a regular chair. Wow, that is amazing.
He's trying to run the clock out. He's playing Madden
or some ship. What the fun again? This is what
(29:33):
I mean. It's like these people have no respect right,
they have no respect for what an attorney general does,
they have no respect for oversight, and it's so damaging.
It's so damaging because people are going to look at
that and go, oh, yeah, good for that guy. When
you're like this is again, it's like not to be
like but a couple of steps away. Then democracy crumples
(29:56):
when you when you have no confidence in Department of
Justice an oversight like this is. It's really scary. Yeah,
well that's what the last two years have done though,
because with the Republicans controlling these committees, people have just
come in and been like, you know what am I gonna?
What do you want me to say here? And they're
like that's good enough for me, thank you sir. Can
we follow up? Your time's out? And three to one
(30:19):
your time? So I'm sorry. Moving on to now, I
think the scam artists, like what is a scam artist?
And under the FBI investigation for scamming people, and he
is the highest ranking judicial cop. Basically co yeah, he's
the top cop. So cut to Sheila Jackson Lee from Texas.
(30:41):
She had fucking no time for this bullshit. So again,
here's another scenario where a Democrat is trying to question
him and there's a little bit of time issues going on,
where again she's being aware of what what time is
on the clock and he tries to pull the same
fucking thing, but again she is not having it. Again,
(31:04):
Mr Chornee General, the question is did you have a
confirmation hearing and has been more than ten years since
you testified before a congress um congresswoman, and the costee
restored it was sorry, what was I don't know if
your time restored or not. Mr Chornee General. We're not
(31:25):
joking here, and your humor is not acceptable. She basically
just goes on to rip just saying, this is Congress.
We're here to fucking just figure out what the hell
is going on, and we have the power we are
we have the mandate from the Constitution to do this.
And again she's like, this is not this is not funny,
(31:46):
this is not games. So we'll see that you've taken
two more minutes to make that point and your clock
is okay, I'm gonna go for a dick toilet break.
The sand went out in the hour. Class, my you
flipped it over, and uh, your pictionary time is now
over it. Yeah, so we shall see where this ends up.
(32:08):
I'm sure there'll be more fire fireworks. So he did
he answer? I know we're in real time here, but
did he He didn't answer anything. I guess. The one
thing that he did give an answer on was when
he was pressed, did you ever talk to the president
or anybody in his cabinet his inner circle about your
opinions on the Moor investigation? Yes? Or no? Did you
talk to them before you were appointed? He did answer
(32:29):
that and said no, okay, but I don't believe it. Yes,
so we did pass notes secretly though on top of
the when we were on our dick toilet s we
scribbled out some some letters talk no whisper, Well, that's
a different story, which encrypted chatting app Yes, And I
(32:50):
guess in further questioning Whitaker did then he testified that's
what he says. According to his words, he did not
interfere with the Mueller investigation anyway, and never refused funding
for it. So he's, you know, trying to say I
was a good boy. Okay, I'm just a dick toilet
trying to make my way in this world like anybody
else with nothing to hide. And your time is up.
(33:14):
And also your time's up, bro, So I gotta go,
and maybe Rod Rohodzenstein will have a different opinion when
he leaves. Yea as the overseer. Uh, let's talk about
some more shady characters doing the bidding of the president.
So am I American Media, Inc. I think run by
(33:35):
a guy named David Pecker appropriately Uh. We We've been
talking about them forever. They're just an amazing outfit of
bungling crooks and just fucking conmen, liar extortionists. Yes, and
they have been basically busted openly extorting the richest man
(33:56):
in the world. Yeah, I mean so. Jeff Bezos last
week wrote a Medium post like any angsty millennial would,
basically saying like, hey, just you guys know I know
that like it came out that I was having an
affair or whatever. But I preempted that story by just
coming out with it. Because the national Choir was gonna
publish it, um, and I just kind of want to
(34:19):
show you guys some back and forth I've had over
email or my organizations have had over email with American Media, Inc.
And the editor in chief, Dylan Howard, in which basically
it I don't know, I'm not a lawyer, but this
looks like some light extortion going on, where essentially National
Enchoir was like, hey, so I know you hired like
(34:39):
an investigator to kind of try and get to the
bottom of why we had like hacked texts. If you
remember when that Lauren Sanchez thing came out, we read
some of the texts where Jeff Bezz was like I
love you a live girl, and we're like, what the
fun is going wrong about? Um? And he was like
did you get my package? Yea, Like how did he
get those texts? I mean, although, like Lauren Sanchez brother
(35:00):
has like weird connections to Roger Stone and you know
he's like a maga dude. Um, but still I do
not have access to my sister's text message, right, So
it's it's one thing that should be noted. No boundary
family anyway. So from there he was like, something's weird
going on, especially when it's Am I and like the
(35:20):
Washington Post has been up, like you know, Trump hates
the Washington Post, and Bezos's like, can you look to
see if maybe this was politically motivated? And when that happened,
they were like, we want you to stop with this.
We hear you're gonna publish the story about how you
like you've been investigating how this may have been a
politically motivated story if you do not cease and desist
from this, like just so you know, we have some
(35:42):
pictures of you that we could leak, like little what
what what are known as colloquially colloquially known as dick picks,
and then other ones of like weird things about just
him half naked or Laurence Sanchez being happy. It was
just like just weird relationship that they stole basically and
described them in the email. Yeah, it's yeah, very in
(36:03):
very like direct legal terms, is so weird? Um with
like his half erect manhood peeking out of the zipper
of his cargo shorts, like cargo shorts. Anyway, why is
the richest guy in the world wearing cargo shorts to
hold all that cash? Maybe so you know he was
showing the back and forth saying like this looks like extortion.
(36:25):
And apparently, you know, there was a lot when his
investigators got near the idea that am I might have
some also connections to the Saudis, which I mean we
all know that they put out like a really cool
spread magazine for NBA Heart Saudi Arabia MB with no
ads in it. Yeah, it was at a grocery store,
(36:47):
like when MBS was doing his tour of goodwill around
the Western world. You probably saw a just glow like
a picture of him that was like a glamour shot.
It was like a teen idol. Yeah, spreadsheet for he's
like a dictator, woke Saudi hottie UM. And so from
(37:08):
there it just got like darker and darker. And so
from you know a lot of people were like, wow,
this is very clear extortion. I mean, other people like
if they really go like legally put it together, they say,
maybe it's hard to find like extortionate intent because the
language was masked under all this business talk or whatever,
but it's clear. It's like we have naked pictures, we
will release a view if you don't end with this
(37:30):
like politically motivated ship Later on like other people reporting
that Bezos is investigator suspects that maybe there was a
government entity involved in getting these text messages. So it's
starting to get fucking well, am I you know, has
a direct agreement right with Muller. Right, so it's okay,
(37:52):
we you know, we caught you red handed. You know
you you did the hush money, you did you know,
the cover up? What do they call it? Killing the
story or catching kill? Right? So Mueller has them red
handed and they and they're like, Okay, you won't come
to any chart, there'll be no charges. They have to
do one thing and that's not committed crime for three years.
(38:12):
And this is they go after Jeff Bezos, the wealthiest
man on the planet, and they think there's gonna be
no repercussions. He's like, fine, throw I'm gonna throw a
gazillion dollars you know at this investigation show my dick
and this, and and the thing is that's so it's
(38:33):
so layered. There's so many layers to this because I
mean literally Washington Post, you know, Amazon, like everything like
Trump has been He's he calls him like his number
one enemy, right openly calls him me like trying to
shut down like the post office with the Amazon like
it's so blatant, it's so and then the Kashogi spread,
(38:54):
it's like so obvious. And it was interesting reporting last
night because they were saying, like if if it is,
how you prove that this is extortion? Right, It's usually
like if you don't send me eight and fifty million dollars,
I'll show your dick pis And that's clear. But this
what they wanted specifically was to say this isn't politically
motivated and knock it off with the Saudi stuff, right,
(39:17):
I mean it's unbelievable, and it's like it's so clear.
It's like, well, you're not asking for money, but you're
asking you know, don't screw up all our Muller three
year this isn't a crime plan. Yeah, fascinating. I'm convinced
there's nothing there this investigation. They don't like the people
who have anything to help. I mean, they have so
(39:39):
much fucking karma built up, am I between like this
when like Rose McGowan, when they sent in someone to
try and like figure out what you knew about Harvey
Weinstein to all this ship during the election, I mean,
we already know that they're in for a ride. And
I still again, like you said, you have an immunity deal.
Don't go extorting people. Not the richest man who could
(40:00):
he could buy AM I if he really wanted to,
some kind of hostile takeover should be like go to
their board and be like, okay, what do you guys?
Okay watching crumple this fucking thing up and toss it
in the garbage can. But again they're the I guess
board of directors at AM. I like, we're gonna look
into this to see if anything untoward occurred. It's like
he published all the emails right there. I did see this.
(40:22):
There's this guy on I think it was Laurence O'Donnell
last night and his title was like, you know, former
senior editor of the l A branch of AM. I.
You know you could just tell like a total sleez
bag back in his day. But he made a really
good point. He was like, you know, you know the
readers of the National Enquirer, right is that? Where is
(40:42):
that the publication that it broke? Right? They He's like
probably five percent of them know who Jeff Bezos is.
You know what I mean? Like this isn't George Clooney
or Brad Pitts dick picks. Like if you were like, hey,
do you know who Jeff Bezos is, they would be like, so,
like what is this? Like you know, there's no fear
(41:05):
and no like, oh I cannot wait to see Jeff
Bezos is dick picks, you know what I mean. Behind Yeah,
So I was like, that's such a good point. It's like, so,
how is it not politically yeah, now, because it seems like,
based on his willingness to turn these over that he
probably has a pretty good looking dick. So like, and
(41:26):
that's just gonna be depressing because he's like the richest
guy in the world and he has a great dick.
Maybe maybe he has some aftermarket work for the woman,
you know what I mean? For him, I'm like, oh what,
you know, it sucks, but like whatever for the woman,
you know, for Laurence Laura, I mean, she's just she
has to Like I would just be like, this is
(41:47):
this is like your worst night? Well yeah, and just
it's it's just so salasious and it's funny because this
is like the first time I find myself being like, yeah,
I'm on Jeff Bezos, is this is a publication Like yeah,
I'm like, yeah, them up, Jeff. He is inherently a
psychopath for having as much money as he has and
(42:07):
not being charitable. There's a list that came out of
like the most charitable, like the top five. He's like
four out of five, Like and the problems with Amazon
and working and you know what I mean. So I
didn't really care that his you know, picture scandal happened,
but like the political fallout, I mean the words government entity,
Like what is it that we're all finding ourselves like
(42:29):
rooting for the FBI. It's like Jesus Christ billionaire exactly.
Well yeah, and then and you know, Bezos isn't the
first person to receive these kinds of threats, you know,
because Ronan Farrell came out, I was like, oh, yeah,
they tried to funk with me too. Yeah, And I
was like he's like, I don't cut deals with people
on investing terrorists. You to negotiate with terrorists. And then
(42:51):
we didn't get anything about Ronan Fara did we Like,
it's not like they like put out some salacious hit
piece on or if they did, nobody noticed, because again,
it's not like the National Enquiry readers are like ronan
pharaoh with a male lover, right, and they're like what
And then AP the journalists from the AP were also
like I think an editor at the AP was also
saying like, yeah, if you my journalists got things from
(43:13):
the from a M I too, being like high snop
sniffing around. It's all so funny to hear everybody mispronounced.
At some point last night, I was like, is it
is it Bezos? Because I've been saying Bezos the entire time,
and then people would come on to comment on the
story and they go Jeff Bezos and I was like, wait,
it's not is it Bezos? But what I'm talking I
(43:35):
was literally laughing for twin miutes because someone's gonna be like,
here's the problem with chef Bezos, and then the next
two seconds would be like Jeff Bezos. When he started,
I was like, that's person. You're running a show. But
this was like you know, CNN, MSNBC. I was like,
could someone just I'll clarify, and then the host is
like this Jeff Bezos not be to the Z to
(43:58):
the Like We're just can someone get a clarification on
how to pronounce this last day. Yeah, that is a
thing with like Mueller as well, and like it's I
feel like there are some people who feel like it's
cool to say it in a different way because it
makes it sound like they know something you don't. Right, Well,
(44:20):
that's interesting, you don't know the derivation from Yeah, yeah,
I mean, myles, you mentioned karma and this just I
don't know, man, this this is a giant, bungling spider
web of corruption and the ringleader is currently the president.
I feel like believing in karma is what gets our
(44:40):
side in trouble a lot of the time. It's just
like there's no karma clearly because they are karma criminal organization,
and the one thing they have is just shamelessness and
like just acting as if doing bad ship will never
come back to bite them in the ass and has
worked for them. They are the president, right, which shows
(45:03):
you that you can side Stebcarma if you're rich enough, right,
unless you're trying to sidestep the richest man, and they'll
be like, no, I'm sorry, my bag is heavier. Right,
all right, we're gonna take a quick break. We'll be
right back, and we're back, and do you guys remember
(45:31):
movie Pass from like five years ago. No, it's has
it been that long? Has it been? I look at
my hands, Agnes twenty five years? So it had a
bad two thousand eighteen movie pass uh and went out
of business. And that's the last we've ever heard of it. Good, goodbye,
(45:52):
good story. Great Okay, well all right, no, actually they're
still in business. Yeah. The Ringer a profile where they
sent one of their reporters to movie Pass headquarters and
they couldn't find it because it's in a doctor's office,
(46:12):
like in a broom closet, or like next to a
doctor's office in what looks like a broom closet, and
it's just the two dudes who totally fucked this whole
thing up, just sitting there and that The description of
the of the interview is that the main guy who
screwed it up, whose name I should know, John movie
Pass Uh. He says that Mitch Low, Mitchell Big Mitch Low,
(46:39):
was answering questions. He said he was holding onto his
seat like he was on a roller coaster, like just
like like he just hasn't recovered from the funk up
that he just put his company through. Yeah, it's I
love it. It just said to their credit, low an
item who is the other the other partner there both
acknowledged this mistake for that basically like burning bridges with
(47:02):
like filmmakers and studios in the theaters. But they're like
just undercutting business. So I said. For most of our conversation,
Lowe's pensive and resigned, often picking at the label of
his water bottle and when answering questions, holding on to
the seat of his chair like a car that's careening
around a corner two fast. Oh my god, that's like
kid in trouble, Just nervous behavior, like I'm just going
(47:23):
to pick the label off this water and do anything. Yeah. Maybe.
But then when you tell them about the description of
even trying to get to the office, that's what's so hilarious.
How they've gone from movie past. Everyone's like, oh, yeah,
we've we're fucking running ship to this the next Netflix
is why it is what they were pitched as. And
(47:44):
so the reporter says, I found myself in the large
entryway into the offices of Abram's Artists Agency. I turned right,
which led to a small office with two chairs and alone.
Abram's branded iPad meant for signing in. It was a
doctor's office only for actors. Finally, I resigned myself to
asking the receptionist at Abrams, and the receptionist said, oh,
(48:06):
it's pretty much right there. She said, just walk straight ahead.
Straight ahead, there was a nondescript door the same color
as the hallway walls. I couldn't be sure that I
had noticed it the first two times I walked past it.
It looked like the door to a broom closet. As
I went to knock, two men opened the door and
sauntered out, revealing a full office space behind them. Is
(48:28):
this movie pass? I asked? They nodded like it's like
they're They're like, sh don't say it out right, what's
the past? And get in here? And then they do
the thing where they peek their head out the door
and look both ways and then slammed the door. Somebody
fucking follow you, dude, or shut the funk up? All right, man,
welcome to the movie pass. My favorite detail, though, is
(48:50):
that as they're fielding these difficult questions because there's no
good answer to their behavior, right, how did you funk
up this, they're like showing the tape, like like Ellis
from die Hard being like showing the watch the tape
on the tape yea pieces video home. So they put
in a video that they have created to like go
(49:12):
around and like pitch movie pass too, just various people
who might give them money to keep this shrade up.
And it's just a highlight reel of movies. It's just
they're just like, yeah, like like one of those Oscar
like reels where it's just there's like movies, huh, pretty great,
and here's some popcorn read one zillion dollars for you
(49:35):
to keep us afloat this is. The video plays like,
oh my god, I think from the articles is the
video plays like one of those compilations the oscars make
every year to remind us that, yes, movies are quite good.
Tom Hardy demanding we dream bigger. In inception a Butt's
a clip of gal Gado as wonder Woman Willy Wonka
waxes poetic while the voiceover speaks of first kisses stolen
(49:55):
away in the darkness of a theater and then just
Tom Cruise running in the firm. Yeah, because that's what
they are doing and you like all that stuff. Yeah,
that was us. We're movies and they're like see dude,
this ship's magic Man, and yeah, we're sorry we burned
your movies movies. There's also the fact that in two
(50:19):
thousand eighteen, something I didn't know about is they send
an email to subscribers from an adorable puppy that actually happened.
Movie Past thought the best way to save their company
was to send their customers an email from Chloe, the
director of Barketing. So after they fucked up, like not
being able to follow through on their promises to their
(50:41):
customers and angry people being like, why do my rates
go up? How come half the dates are blacked out?
I can't even see a movie, their idea is to
send a look at this beautiful, this cute little puppy
with a movie Past bandana on. That's like at the
top of this email, and then the text says, woof.
I'm Chloe, the director of Barketing at Movie Pass. I'd
(51:02):
like to explain why from time to time you have
had a quote rough experience with us, But I'm sorry,
but it turns out that I'm a dog and I
can't talk. What I do know is that I see
these humans working like crazy to make movie Pass better
and better for you as fast as possible. They're so
(51:23):
grateful for your membership and support while they work it out.
We're listening, we're learning, we're changing. I'm a dog. I
can't speak English. Don't get mad at me. Don't get
mad at me. Don't get mad at me. Look how
cute I am? How I were They in a in
the small little office and they're like, you know, let's
just go at the dog. Blame it on that dog.
(51:46):
The dog is chilled. Dogs, may people smile about the
dump we took in the corner. We're a dog, Yeah,
you could. Like. Honestly though, I could see the like
White How employing this tactic at some point of being like,
how do we explain the collusion thing? Cats three Q
(52:07):
cats going, uh, what is collusion? Right? Oh sorry, we're
from mew scow saw me about that defroding the US
that that does seem to be the new sort of
strategy for dealing with fucking up? Is you just I mean,
(52:30):
this is what Facebook does. This is now what movie
Paest does. I'm guessing it's what the White House is
going to do is just yeah, funk up and then
ask for forgiveness. Yeah, but this is so how much
do they move, like, how much do they is it?
Is it? It's not in bankruptcy right, like they're trying
to pull it back. They have those Times Square didn't
(52:50):
they invest? Where where do they get the money? I
don't put up billboards in Times Square when they owe
everybody money and it's it's now is it? It's still
now defunct? Right? Or they're actually holding that cute dog
for hostage and that's where they marketing is gonna get
(53:12):
and a plugger if you don't get the fucking money
to us um. On the same day that those billboards
were unveiled, they were hit with a class action lawsuit. Yeah,
oh really Yeah, beautiful timing. And I mean, I think
the only reason they could possibly still have some value
is the all the access to people's private information that
(53:32):
they have is probably worth something like the data that
they have on their user base, which they will presumably sell.
And you know, and the deal with the deal was
eighty nine movies per week for a dollar, right exactly,
and it imploded cents gets you unlimited movies, right, This
(53:53):
is odd that the numbers didn't crunch out with that
turns out sustainable just doing some quick match, just quick
and when I say quick, I mean you're going to fail.
I just did it in my head without a calculator.
I mean I I can't even Yeah, and then the
director of marketing it's great, it's adorable. Yeah, I think
(54:15):
the genius there who they must have been so relieved
when someone came up with that idea. They're like, what
if we just put Chlothe in the phone, like oh yes,
fuck yeah do that? Do that? Yes? Yes, yes, And
then we're going to change our Facebook profiles to Chloe.
No one can find but literally that, like if you
just say it out loud. Their strategy was pretend to
be a dog, and when people ask us a difficult question,
(54:39):
say we don't speak English because we're a dog, right,
And then you're like I'm sorry what? And then how
did then you think? All right, how did these people
get as far as they did? You know what I mean?
Like they just it's literally about they're probably like great
idiot sales people, you know what I mean, Like they
just sit down the world getting the money people just
(55:00):
blowing forward. I need that skill. Yeah, strata of wealth
though any of other people who have so much just
throw away money that if you're like if you're smarter
than another rich guy. Like this guy is smart, Yeah,
I will kick him a million dollars. And then because
their exit panic strategy is a dog. So, I mean,
it's it's unbelievable. I'm really jealous of how they got them,
(55:26):
Like you know what I mean. It's like people's you know,
trojan horses, Like they go in and they're like they've
got nothing, but they're like, I got I got a
toilet right now. I mean, but think about the fire
Festival documentaries that we've seen recently, Think like, think about
these guys. This is there's like a cheap code to capitalism,
like people have people on the right have been saying
(55:48):
forever that, well, the market is the best way to
decide everything. And it's like, no, you can just fucking cheat.
You can just like lie to people and get all
the money and live in South to coddn't have a
Russian agent as your girlfriend, yes, or you're just Donald Trump, right.
But you know, the thing that I'm actually worried about
in all of this is the three picture deal Bruce
(56:10):
will assigned with Movie Pass. I don't remember Willis as well, guys,
I thought I think Bruce Willis is like something going on.
I think, so, yeah, what do you mean, Well, he
was sober for like twenty five years and now he's
drinking again and he just seems, yeah, he seems like
like out of it in interviews. And then he signed
this three picture deal with movie Pass, which first one
(56:33):
being Moonlighting to Electric Boogle. Yes, I mean we're excited
about that. Yeah, yeah, three picture deal though, right, So
you think that was I mean, yeah, he's selling his
Bedford estate was just put on the markets in the
greater Brentwood area for a Movie Pass. Yeah, I mean,
(56:55):
I think this is also a good lesson that we're
learning is if it seems too good to be true
from a monetary standpoint, it's that's right, if it's too
good to be true, your attorney general. Right. But it's
what we've talked about with Facebook and Google, like they
(57:16):
they're not giving you these amazing services for free. They're
giving them to you and selling your information. They're getting
the good end of the stick. So if the word
oligarch is in your contract, read it carefully signed terms
of service, stay in touch with your friends, and donate
(57:37):
to Russian oligarchs. The US together look at people's baby pictures,
you don't. Russian's right outside your window dictates that's that
is Trump's go to movies. That's sniff. I wonder if
(57:59):
on the Hello prompter it says inhale vigorously through nostrils,
get that drip going poppy. The meme someone sent me
a meme of I'm sure you guys have seen it
of the Nancy Blosi the clap, the clap right behind
Maroon five. Dude. It was. It was seriously like the
(58:21):
funniest thing ever. So he's shirtless and then she's right
behind him doing the clap. Impressive. It was. I don't
know what Millennial is in the basement doing those memes,
but um, they're amazing. People had at work, you know exactly,
and then getting it stolen by and then Jerry is
stealing it and giving it time and there's a loop
(58:41):
there we go there. It is a circle of life. Aaron,

(01:09):
to be joined in our third feet by the hilarious
stand up comedian Aaron Holy. Hello. What those are two
of my favorite songs? Yeah, I get yeah, they're both
my ring tones, one for the week and then the
other from the Week for the Week and Samman makes
people realize you mean business. Yeah, every every day I
(01:31):
wake up to the closing song of Mariana Rivera's career
into the Sandman and uh and then around the Girl

I am, I am. Uh. I just saw like a
T shirt that said like you nan momnus or something
(01:52):
like you put mo in and I was like, yeah, yeah, wait,
what do you do? The Hall of Fame and the
first time ever, it's like one of it's very ever. Yeah,
he's the first unite has ever been. I mean, I
can't remember. I'm not a huge baseball fan, but I
can't remember anybody being as dominant at their position as
(02:15):
he was as a closer, like he was just yeah,
and he's such a good he's such a good story
because he's like a starter and he kept getting he
sent down, you know what I mean. He just was
like a total and then he just like found a
cutter in the off season, like everyone finds, like, you know,
diseases in the off season, and it's like a Hall
(02:35):
of Fame cutter. Yeah. Yeah, so that was exciting. Aaron,
you're a big sports fan. We're going to talk some
sports today by way of Terrible White Guy jazz blues music,
and we're gonna get to know you a little bit
better in a moment. But first we're going to tell
our listeners a couple of things we're talking about today.
We're going to talk about the ongoing revelation of this
(03:00):
date of Virginia and the white population there in and
their problematic nous. We're gonna talk about Dick Toilett making
his big UH appearance, his big premier debutante on speaking
in front of the House UH in such a way
that we could see him and it was impressive. Yeah, yeah, showing, Yeah,
(03:22):
very strong showing. UH. We're going to talk about the
battle we deserve between Jeff Bezos and am I. We've
been talking about am I since before they were a
national before it was popular, before it was a household name.
Just you know, we used to do the watch here
on the Daily Zeitgeist and we like to talk about
(03:44):
how David Pecker was, you know, one of Trump's homies
who would help him out. And turns out that became
national news. And yeah, it's not like we were doing
original reporting. We just read the New Yorker, the only
thing we're breaking is like, yo, have you had that thing?
(04:04):
A taco bet? Yeah, that's the most original report. I
think the most original story we broke was that there
might be cheesy bacon fries coming from McDonald's doubled down
on that. We'll talk about the Green New Deal, We'll
talk about the outbreak of measles, We'll talk about all
sorts of things. But first, Aaron Foley, we like to
(04:25):
ask our guests, what is something from your search history
that is revealing about who you are as a person. Well,
this is a uh, this is a wormhole. I went down.
I had to take a picture because I couldn't remember
the title. But I clicked on it and then I
couldn't stop it said, gut doctor, I bet Americans to
throw out this vegetable. And I clicked on it. Americans.
(04:50):
I beg sorry, Oh, I beg them got it? And
I was like, what vegetable? Oh no, because I eat
a lot of vegetables. And I was like, what am
I eating? That's like ruining my gut? You know when
you clicked on these things, And then twenty minutes later,
I still didn't discover it because it was like, watch
this guy's forty minute video on gut rot and then
(05:11):
like you know how you just get sucked in and
keep clicking and you can never get to the I
was like, oh god, it's three o'clock. I started this
at nine am. Is it selary or you never found out?
I never? Okay, so you Google to be like, what's
just I just kept going and then really it was
like twenty it was. It was one of these things
(05:33):
where then I think at one point I got it
to like then a dollar ninety nine, you know, click
it was just yeah, And so then I just started
guessing it was was that clickbait like at the bottom
of another article, like one of those things. It was
one of those things. It's even doctors are concerned about. Yeah,
(05:54):
it's like these jeans make you look You're like, yeah, yeah,
it was one of those things. But it's always a
shameful experience. But you sometimes you just have to click
on them. They're like, well they got me, No, they
this guy definitely got me. Right. It'll be like a
person who has like had like clearly photoshopped face and
like you'll never guess what celebrity went overboard with plastic
(06:18):
And then you go and it's like, okay, like Muriel Hemingway, right, Yeah,
I just have a like a bad stomach, and I'm
always trying like new things. So I was like, what
do you mean what all vegetables are perfect? Isn't that
troubling that Google knows you have a bad stomach? Of
course it does, because every every time when my computers off,
(06:39):
I have a bad stomach. And then I turned it
back on and it's like, do you have a bad stomach.
We're just gonna guess here. We're gonna throw something out
and you can tell us if we're wrong. What is
something you think is overrated? This sounds ridiculous, but I
was just touring a lot the last couple of months,
and I was in a lot of East Coast really
cold cities, and I had to I had to drink
(06:59):
a lot of hot beverages. So I'm gonna put hot
beverages on overrated, specifically hot coffee. I was drinking cold
brew on like an eight degree day, and I was
totally fine with it. I was just a lot. I
drink a lot of hot beverages, and I'm like, they're overrated.
You know that drinking cold stuff isn't great for your
gut though. I know. Yes, God, doctor, I beg aaron
(07:23):
to drink hot beverages. This vegetable iced coffee. You need
to throw that out. Uh yeah. Any anybody who has
parents from like the old World or relatives from like
Europe or something like has been told like throw out
that cold beverage. My mom for the longest, she only
(07:45):
drinks hot teens and she's like, oh, it's bad for you.
Drink cold water. And I'm like, look, splinter, I'm gonna
get down to beer. Bod this ice water. My mother
in law, anytime I'm sick, she thinks it's because I
drink too many cold beverages, right right, right. And the
air conditioner was one. That's the other one. I was like, oh,
you're gonna die. So it's a draft, the draft, Korean
(08:08):
fan death. What's in a draft? You know? Monsters? That's
exactly right. What's something you think is underrated? All right? Um,
this is this is good guys. Uh yeah, squeeze your
your cigarette butts uh. The quiet car of Amtrak. Okay,
(08:29):
I just did a six and a half hours from
New York to Virginia and then Virginia back to New
York in the quiet car and amtrack because I was
so sick of taking planes because the worst of humanity
or brings out the plane travels the worst of humanity.
And it was a magical experience. It was self policed
and I'm talking to you no, I mean, like, these
(08:51):
two guys sat down next to me. They were quietly talking,
and I was totally fine with that. I just didn't
want anybody yapping on their phones right right right. And
this woman turned around and goes, excuse me, this is
a quiet car. There's absolutely no talking. And I thought, oh,
it's gonna go down. And they go, oh, I'm so sorry,
and they took their ticket and walked to another car.
That's how it started. And I was like, this is
(09:11):
the respect to the quiet car. I mean, it was unbelievable.
It was like everybody's dream sequence. Like on the way back,
this guy was talking on the phone, which didn't happen
for the first like nine hours, and I felt like
empowered and I was, excuse me, sir, it's a quiet car.
There's absolutely no talking on your cell phone. Because I
just had to do it, and he goes, oh, I'm
(09:32):
so sorry. I didn't know this is a quiet card
and he turned off his phone. It was like it
was a dream sequence. It was like being in Japan, right,
like every train is quiet. Well, I didn't realize that
that was like an option, Yes, the quiet And I've
been in the car before, but I hadn't been on
a train in a while, and I and it was
but they took it seriously. It was like a lie.
It was a traveling library. I was like, can I
(09:54):
commute on this train? I mean, I don't have a
job in New York and Virginia? But I was like,
I could get stuff done right. I couldn't. My blood
pressure could go down. No, it was it was just
a little what's the sella that goes from New York
to d C? I think, yeah, because in twenty minutes
(10:14):
in clifty dollars, you literally get there in twenty minutes
if it doesn't fly off the tracks. Remember the early
where they hadn't quite figured it out. Now they're like,
where how am we have a problem with lift? Right?
So fast? Uh? And finally, what's a myth? What's something
(10:35):
people think is true you know to be false? Well,
I mean you know it hasn't been completely fact checked,
but I'm really questioning the myth of apple cider vinegar
because I have it every day, and yet I'm still tired.
My back hurts, my vision is going for distances. That
(10:56):
sounds like you're having a real problem. The person suggested
apple cider vinegar. What did they promise you? If you
google the effects of apple cider vinegar, you get seventeen
pages and it cures everything that's wrong with you. Literally,
it goes down to, like you gotta you know you've
got a bunyan apple cider that like mothers. Yes, okay,
(11:19):
because that's the stuff. I had to bring some apple
cider vinegar to Japan for some relatives and who swear
by it, but it has to be with the mothers.
And I'm like, I don't know what that's the stuff
that's floating sediment. Yeah. Yeah, I'm just saying I thought
I thought it would be a miracle, you know, And um,
(11:40):
I'm not saying it doesn't. I'm just saying, easy, easy
apple A drink in a day. You're supposed to have
like a tablespoon a day, right, and then you cut
like drink and then I have a couple of glasses
I want at night and then I wake up and
I feel like a little fuzzy. I'm like, when is
this apple cider vinegar going to start? Wait? So sorry,
the with mothers thing you guys just said to me,
(12:02):
I felt like I was having a stroke. So yeah,
it's crazy when someone says, yeah, it makes you get it.
With the mother's Okay, basically, the mother's is the stuff
on the bottom. Well, there's one brand that everyone swears
by that they drink. There's a version that No, there's
a version of that brand that does not have mothers,
and there's one that is that brand with mother It's
like the kbuch like the mother plant of the kombucha.
(12:23):
Got it. It's it's like it's like sort of the
same thing. You know how people grow like they have
to get like the mother plan of this in your closet.
It's like a pulpy people grow. You. I don't know
anything about bootsch growth. You're deep in this. I'm only deep.
It's not even a hipster thing. It's lesbo lan Okay,
(12:44):
it's I. I have so many freaking lesbos in my
life that are growing kombucha and they're freaking you know?
Is that the new thing? Dog closet whatever that means.
It just flew out of my mouth. But they're like, well,
we gotta get that. The mother has to be in
a quiet, dark place. I'm like, do you or what
you're saying? So it's like what lesbians like. It's like
weed growing for lesbians right now, I grow my own
(13:05):
booch right yeah, no, I'm serious. Yeah, the real hipster
booch thing hit like peak mass when I was at
a show and all the cocktails, the only mixers they
had were kombucha, like you want to jack and booch
and I was like, get the funk away from oh
my god, and I was like, you don't have anything else?
Like no, it's like all kombucha based cocktails. L a
(13:26):
fucking needs based cocktails, and the flavors do not go
well together. And I'm sure some barre you know person
is gonna be like, actually you should try and like this,
and if you do, invite us to your bar to
drink unlimited for free on just just disclosure. I am
gay so I can say, Lesbie, I don't want your things,
(13:47):
like who the hell is this, lady fella? And I
just based on my Mariano rivera knowledge should that should
have been your cue, but just in case. All right,
well we're on the subject of New York sports. We
are pivoting the w m b A because, Uh, just
(14:07):
before we started recording, I revealed something that I thought
everybody knew who was a New York sports fan. But
James Dolan, former owner of the New York Liberty, who
sold them, I guess he kicked them out of the garden.
Kicked them out of the garden. Also, just the worst
team owner ever. I think people generally agree the worst
(14:28):
for people who are not literate, and James Dolan. People
to explain why he's so bad. He inherited a giant
company from his father and also the ownership of the
New York Knicks. Uh, they have been atrocious for basically
twenty years millennia. Yes, and based almost exclusively on hiring
(14:49):
decisions that he has made. Uh. And they would have
had an amazing run post Lebron's decision. Lebron and Dwyane Wade,
it has now been revealed, wanted to go to the
Knicks and like bring basketball back to New York and
you know, just make the Knicks grade again. And they
met with James Dolan and came out of that, like
(15:10):
we're going to Miami. Guy is a His pitch presentation
was a concert. Yeah, so that's what we just talked
about right before we start recording. He has a band
that he plays in that he sings in uh sings
in quotes. They're called j D and the Straight Shot,
(15:33):
and they are breathtaking because they're all so he's maybe
early sixties, mid sixties, and he has hired he has
hired a bunch of you know, twenty two thirties something
musicians to hang out with him, and you know the
(15:54):
straight Shot. Yeah, be the straight Shot, and it is
among the worst things you will ever experience if you
look them up on YouTube. We will play a little
segment of j D in the Straight Shop for you
right now. This is called better find a Church, Find
your church guys. Oh yeah, uh huh, really you're moving
(16:14):
really okay. Just so you know, it's four people standing
in the pus. You don't see the bass player. Everyone's
holding a guitar, but no one's playing. There's seventeen basketball
players crying in the back room. So he got an
actual singer to sing over him. So it seemed like
(16:37):
he was harmonizing with something but it's just that he's
wearing like a pork pie trying to look like an
edgy music. It's really cringe e. I was already cringing
when you're like, oh he sings like jazz or blues
or whatever, garbage just coming out of his mouth. I was.
And then the first song you hit pull up is
better find a Church. I'm like, it's too much. Yes,
(16:59):
And he is just one of the great unintentional sources
of comedy in the world. And he's in charge of
like the Knicks and the Liberty, you know what I mean.
It was it's so it's so bad. I mean, the
garden is like it's so iconic, and it's such a
you know, it's not this monster cathedral like it it's
(17:20):
almost such a great it's almost like a church of sports.
It's a great place to see a game, you know
what I mean, Like it's it's it's a really great
uh court, Like it's not you don't there's no bad seats,
Like it's amazing. We want to go. The Knicks were
just revealed to be the most valuable franchise I think
in the NBA, not in sports. Yeah, I mean some
(17:41):
of us remember when the garden was eaten. Okay, great plug. Anyways,
you were saying that The Liberty now play in in
a nursing home in Westchester. Uh you know, they literally
playing like a community gym. But the nets owner just
bought them. Oh good. So there's the Japanese guy. I
(18:05):
think he's got the controlling steak or forty Night or whatever. So, uh,
I didn't I don't remember his name, billionaire, Yes, Joseph Si.
So Joseph S. I sorry, I just screamed out the
Japanese guy, which is, uh, well, that's what they say.
I was born in Virginia. I just didn't know his name,
(18:25):
but I was screamed in delight. I was like, who
is this guy? I love him because it's it's ridiculous
they have. But anyway, the whole point is, I think
they have a lot of stuff already booked for the
summer in um Barclays, So I think it's maybe next
summer they'll come, but they'll do some games at Barclays
and more on the roads. I don't know. It's just
like the Liberty was is when I lived in the city,
(18:48):
Like it was so fun. You know. The whole thing
is like you see these little girls and they're wearing
Tina Charles jerseys, like and like, you know, we never
got to do that growing up. So it's so important
and it's such a fun sport and uh, it's such
a family affair and it's awesome and to lose that
in the city is heartbreaking. Yeah, but I believe you
(19:09):
had to clear out some space for j D. In
the straight shot, they're touring exclusively a Madison Square garden,
which he owns. In the men's room. Yes, yes, let's
talk Virginia. You were just there riding trains and Virginia. No, no, no,
the guy was not from Japan. So this has turned
(19:33):
out to be such a trend in Virginia, the wearing
black face in school yearbooks, that a group of activists
from Richmond has put together a go fund me to
pay students from historically black universities to go through yearbooks
and look for evidence of racist behavior and imagery. And
(19:54):
I feel like this is going to be just one
news break after another world that will last for years
to Yeah. I mean, because after the Mark Harrying thing,
or the a G of Virginia, his black face scandal,
Ralph Northam's black face scandal. Then we found out last
week that the Republican Virginia State Center Tommy Norman, who's
(20:15):
the majority leader of the Chamber, was the editor of
the v m I Virginia Military Institute's yearbook and call, yeah,
your face is so damn black. Uh with again just
more black face in the yearbook. So, but the headlines
were weird. It's like Virginia politician oversaw yearbook with black face.
I'm like, let's let's say overseas with black FaceTime, right anyway,
(20:37):
But yeah, it's just you know, it's a thing. But
I mean, I don't think this is necessarily a lot
of the takes are hyper focus on Virginia. This is
a worldwide thing. But yeah, right now it's Virginia's turn
in the hopper because yeah, now we have just straight
up go fund means where we're doing grassroots OPO research
where they're like, go through every person who's serving in
Virginia politics, and then then then aren't moving south, right,
(21:01):
and then go to your Georgia yearbooks and you go
to your Alabama. I mean, I mean, this is it's
tough to say because it's well, it's all just so
deeply horrifying. But people go, oh my god, I'm shocked,
and you're like, oh, oh, you're shocked. Do you read
a page? Have you? Literally there's any site of history
in the Deep South or pretty much anywhere, you know
what I mean. But that I had a friend of mine.
(21:22):
He's he's probably like in his fifties. He's a comedy
club book or he's he's one of the good guys.
And he we text back and forth all the time.
And he went to University of Georgia in like late eighties.
And because we're talking about Virginia politics when I was
going down there and whatever, because he booked the show
in Virginia, and he was like, this is literally what
happened when I was in Georgia. He's like, they would
(21:43):
do the frat parties, would do Confederate parties, like the
Spirit of the South parties, and people would come in
KKK outfits and black face. He's like, this was just
like literally all the time, Like millennials had golf pros
and tennis homes parties, we had straight up Confederate ship right. Yeah.
He's like, so, I mean this is gonna be in
everybody's you know, you do a little digging, you're gonna
(22:06):
this is like everybody was doing run DMC is right
and moonwalks and how about his wife was like that's
not appropriate, and he likes smirked inappropriate circumstances, and he's like,
my wife says inappropriate circumstance. I literally was like, your
whole life is an inappropriated The lady says that somebody
(22:27):
pointed out that if you are surprised that this takes place,
you should know that there is a school in Virginia
called Lee Davis. Uh their high school in Archanicsville, in Mechanicsville, Okay,
and their team mascot name is the Confederates. And lest
you think that you know, it's named after Bobby Lee
(22:50):
and uh viola h it is. Actually their their logo
has no don't Robert E. Lee and Jefferson like just
standing shoulder to shoulder. I was really hoping it was
Bobby Lean Violet, right. I guess it's those two guys. Well,
you know Robert E. Lee Community Center for White Folk, right, yeah, essentially,
(23:14):
and Jefferson Davis wasn't even I mean he was born
in Kentucky, I think, right, But they just love that
he was the president of the Confederacy and the capital
of the Confederacy was in Virginia. So there there it is, baby,
you know, proud of their heritage. Right, here's my question
for you guys. If I just was thinking about this, like,
(23:36):
if it keeps unfolding, right, let's say you get you know,
your top fifteen people in line for Virginia all have
black face scandal scandals, then do you just we replaced them?
Just keep going, like you just keep going. We replaced
their statehood with Puerto Rico State perfect, Like where does
it stop? Do then you go, well, my black face
(23:58):
story was actually a little bit better than your black friend.
So I'm gonna keep my attorney general job, but you
have to quit the governorship. I think the only way
to settle it is a dance off. R Curtis Blos
Michael Jackson, all right, we're gonna take a quick break.
We'll be right back, and we're back. And I was
(24:30):
claimed to talk about one Matthew Whittaker A K. Dick
Toilet aka the acting Attorney General. Uh. He went to
the House on Friday to testify before the Judiciary Committee,
and they, you know, wanted answers about his involvement in
(24:51):
the Mueller probe, and you know other things, other ethical
issues like how come you didn't refuse yourself when all
the ethics experts like, recuse your fucking self, dick toilet,
like literally the Department of Justice ethics they were like
advisors were like, okay, so the ethical thing to do
(25:11):
is okay, I'm looking at everything. Yes, you have been
rated conflicted, dick toilet, and I think you should recuse yourself.
But he was like, no, no, I'm good. I'm good
just because I wrote some hot op eds about how
it's a bullshit which Hunt doesn't mean whatever. Also, could
I just could you remind me what the definition of
recuses an ethical right? If you could just freshen up
(25:32):
those definitions, because I've never learned them while I was
shaving my head with my Nazi night right, right, right.
So he wanted to prove that he had nothing to hide.
So on Thursday night he he said he would go
and testify on Friday, giving people a lot of a
(25:52):
lot of time to prepare and be ready for that.
So at first he was really just dragging his feet,
and he's like, well, I have I'm not repaired because
I don't even know what they want to talk about.
And Jerry that was like, that's so, that's verifiably false.
I sent you a letter outlining what we wanted to
question you about, so shut the funk up. Check your
fax machine, man, And he was like, well, I don't know.
(26:13):
I mean like to drag his feet more. And now
there was like, I will fucking subpoena you to get
down here answer these questions if you don't come down,
and then Whittakers like, well, if you're subpoena me, I'm
not gonna like, well, I don't want to do that.
That's just you know, let's not take it there. And
then in place dumb the Department of Justice duty. So
(26:37):
he basically then Nadler was like, Okay, find subpoena's off
the table, but bring your ass here and you better
answer these questions. Don't make this difficult for us because
we're we have an oversight role in the government as Congress,
and he was like okay. High then they got an
argument over the subpoena by saying well, I'm not gonna
come if you subpoena me. But he's like, if you're here,
(27:00):
I won't have to subpoena you because you're here if
you will have already been here, it's just again, what
is the subpoena? It was like an argument that you
have when you're a child with like another kid, like
where it's just like you, Okay, fine, I guess you
win that argument just by sheer like, yeah, there's word,
(27:21):
but no actual acknowledgment of the logic behind it all. Anyway,
this is what happens when you go from like g
e Ed in Kansas to literally Attorney General of the
United States of America. You know, I mean there's no
when you have no education or just basic grasp of
how the government literally works. Yeah, you're missing some pretty
(27:41):
astounding engineering fits in between the where he created a
toilet for people with huge ditch and Rachel Matto describing
that trying to get around the toilet was one of
the funniest things I've ever She's like, this makes me uncomfortable,
but I'm just gonna he Well, he made a toilet,
and I was like, please keep going. This is the
best thing ever manhood. Anyway, So cut to the House
(28:07):
Judiciary Committee is hearing, and it was uneventful in the
sense that he didn't say anything really meaningful or give
real answers. At times, he even pushed back against like
GOP congressmen who are like their line of questions, but like, uh,
you know, I'm here to talk about stuff with the
d O J. This is like really, this is all
over the place. And at one point Jerry Nadler, who
(28:28):
is the chairman, was you know, had like real questions
like why didn't you accuse like have you you know,
had to oversee any decisions being made about them, just
basic stuff about them, all investigation, and he was like
humming and high trying to run the clock out because
everyone has five minutes to question anyway. Just listen to
this genius defensive move by Dick Toilett when Jerry Nadler
(28:51):
is being like trying to question him about them. All
investigation in your capacity is acting at to any general
Have you ever been asked to approve any request or
action to be taken by the Special Council, Mr Chairman,
I see that your five minutes is up, and so
i'm we we we we I am I'm here voluntarily.
(29:13):
We have agreed to five minute rounds. And have I
mentioned that my dick is too big for my toy. Actually,
can I get one of the dick chairs? I don't.
I can't say in a regular chair. Wow, that is amazing.
He's trying to run the clock out. He's playing Madden
or some ship. What the fun again? This is what
(29:33):
I mean. It's like these people have no respect right,
they have no respect for what an attorney general does,
they have no respect for oversight, and it's so damaging.
It's so damaging because people are going to look at
that and go, oh, yeah, good for that guy. When
you're like this is again, it's like not to be
like but a couple of steps away. Then democracy crumples
(29:56):
when you when you have no confidence in Department of
Justice an oversight like this is. It's really scary. Yeah,
well that's what the last two years have done though,
because with the Republicans controlling these committees, people have just
come in and been like, you know what am I gonna?
What do you want me to say here? And they're
like that's good enough for me, thank you sir. Can
we follow up? Your time's out? And three to one
(30:19):
your time? So I'm sorry. Moving on to now, I
think the scam artists, like what is a scam artist?
And under the FBI investigation for scamming people, and he
is the highest ranking judicial cop. Basically co yeah, he's
the top cop. So cut to Sheila Jackson Lee from Texas.
(30:41):
She had fucking no time for this bullshit. So again,
here's another scenario where a Democrat is trying to question
him and there's a little bit of time issues going on,
where again she's being aware of what what time is
on the clock and he tries to pull the same
fucking thing, but again she is not having it. Again,
(31:04):
Mr Chornee General, the question is did you have a
confirmation hearing and has been more than ten years since
you testified before a congress um congresswoman, and the costee
restored it was sorry, what was I don't know if
your time restored or not. Mr Chornee General. We're not
(31:25):
joking here, and your humor is not acceptable. She basically
just goes on to rip just saying, this is Congress.
We're here to fucking just figure out what the hell
is going on, and we have the power we are
we have the mandate from the Constitution to do this.
And again she's like, this is not this is not funny,
(31:46):
this is not games. So we'll see that you've taken
two more minutes to make that point and your clock
is okay, I'm gonna go for a dick toilet break.
The sand went out in the hour. Class, my you
flipped it over, and uh, your pictionary time is now
over it. Yeah, so we shall see where this ends up.
(32:08):
I'm sure there'll be more fire fireworks. So he did
he answer? I know we're in real time here, but
did he He didn't answer anything. I guess. The one
thing that he did give an answer on was when
he was pressed, did you ever talk to the president
or anybody in his cabinet his inner circle about your
opinions on the Moor investigation? Yes? Or no? Did you
talk to them before you were appointed? He did answer
(32:29):
that and said no, okay, but I don't believe it. Yes,
so we did pass notes secretly though on top of
the when we were on our dick toilet s we
scribbled out some some letters talk no whisper, Well, that's
a different story, which encrypted chatting app Yes, And I
(32:50):
guess in further questioning Whitaker did then he testified that's
what he says. According to his words, he did not
interfere with the Mueller investigation anyway, and never refused funding
for it. So he's, you know, trying to say I
was a good boy. Okay, I'm just a dick toilet
trying to make my way in this world like anybody
else with nothing to hide. And your time is up.
(33:14):
And also your time's up, bro, So I gotta go,
and maybe Rod Rohodzenstein will have a different opinion when
he leaves. Yea as the overseer. Uh, let's talk about
some more shady characters doing the bidding of the president.
So am I American Media, Inc. I think run by
(33:35):
a guy named David Pecker appropriately Uh. We We've been
talking about them forever. They're just an amazing outfit of
bungling crooks and just fucking conmen, liar extortionists. Yes, and
they have been basically busted openly extorting the richest man
(33:56):
in the world. Yeah, I mean so. Jeff Bezos last
week wrote a Medium post like any angsty millennial would,
basically saying like, hey, just you guys know I know
that like it came out that I was having an
affair or whatever. But I preempted that story by just
coming out with it. Because the national Choir was gonna
publish it, um, and I just kind of want to
(34:19):
show you guys some back and forth I've had over
email or my organizations have had over email with American Media, Inc.
And the editor in chief, Dylan Howard, in which basically
it I don't know, I'm not a lawyer, but this
looks like some light extortion going on, where essentially National
Enchoir was like, hey, so I know you hired like
(34:39):
an investigator to kind of try and get to the
bottom of why we had like hacked texts. If you
remember when that Lauren Sanchez thing came out, we read
some of the texts where Jeff Bezz was like I
love you a live girl, and we're like, what the
fun is going wrong about? Um? And he was like
did you get my package? Yea, Like how did he
get those texts? I mean, although, like Lauren Sanchez brother
(35:00):
has like weird connections to Roger Stone and you know
he's like a maga dude. Um, but still I do
not have access to my sister's text message, right, So
it's it's one thing that should be noted. No boundary
family anyway. So from there he was like, something's weird
going on, especially when it's Am I and like the
(35:20):
Washington Post has been up, like you know, Trump hates
the Washington Post, and Bezos's like, can you look to
see if maybe this was politically motivated? And when that happened,
they were like, we want you to stop with this.
We hear you're gonna publish the story about how you
like you've been investigating how this may have been a
politically motivated story if you do not cease and desist
from this, like just so you know, we have some
(35:42):
pictures of you that we could leak, like little what
what what are known as colloquially colloquially known as dick picks,
and then other ones of like weird things about just
him half naked or Laurence Sanchez being happy. It was
just like just weird relationship that they stole basically and
described them in the email. Yeah, it's yeah, very in
(36:03):
very like direct legal terms, is so weird? Um with
like his half erect manhood peeking out of the zipper
of his cargo shorts, like cargo shorts. Anyway, why is
the richest guy in the world wearing cargo shorts to
hold all that cash? Maybe so you know he was
showing the back and forth saying like this looks like extortion.
(36:25):
And apparently, you know, there was a lot when his
investigators got near the idea that am I might have
some also connections to the Saudis, which I mean we
all know that they put out like a really cool
spread magazine for NBA Heart Saudi Arabia MB with no
ads in it. Yeah, it was at a grocery store,
(36:47):
like when MBS was doing his tour of goodwill around
the Western world. You probably saw a just glow like
a picture of him that was like a glamour shot.
It was like a teen idol. Yeah, spreadsheet for he's
like a dictator, woke Saudi hottie UM. And so from
(37:08):
there it just got like darker and darker. And so
from you know a lot of people were like, wow,
this is very clear extortion. I mean, other people like
if they really go like legally put it together, they say,
maybe it's hard to find like extortionate intent because the
language was masked under all this business talk or whatever,
but it's clear. It's like we have naked pictures, we
will release a view if you don't end with this
(37:30):
like politically motivated ship Later on like other people reporting
that Bezos is investigator suspects that maybe there was a
government entity involved in getting these text messages. So it's
starting to get fucking well, am I you know, has
a direct agreement right with Muller. Right, so it's okay,
(37:52):
we you know, we caught you red handed. You know
you you did the hush money, you did you know,
the cover up? What do they call it? Killing the
story or catching kill? Right? So Mueller has them red
handed and they and they're like, Okay, you won't come
to any chart, there'll be no charges. They have to
do one thing and that's not committed crime for three years.
(38:12):
And this is they go after Jeff Bezos, the wealthiest
man on the planet, and they think there's gonna be
no repercussions. He's like, fine, throw I'm gonna throw a
gazillion dollars you know at this investigation show my dick
and this, and and the thing is that's so it's
(38:33):
so layered. There's so many layers to this because I
mean literally Washington Post, you know, Amazon, like everything like
Trump has been He's he calls him like his number
one enemy, right openly calls him me like trying to
shut down like the post office with the Amazon like
it's so blatant, it's so and then the Kashogi spread,
(38:54):
it's like so obvious. And it was interesting reporting last
night because they were saying, like if if it is,
how you prove that this is extortion? Right, It's usually
like if you don't send me eight and fifty million dollars,
I'll show your dick pis And that's clear. But this
what they wanted specifically was to say this isn't politically
motivated and knock it off with the Saudi stuff, right,
(39:17):
I mean it's unbelievable, and it's like it's so clear.
It's like, well, you're not asking for money, but you're
asking you know, don't screw up all our Muller three
year this isn't a crime plan. Yeah, fascinating. I'm convinced
there's nothing there this investigation. They don't like the people
who have anything to help. I mean, they have so
(39:39):
much fucking karma built up, am I between like this
when like Rose McGowan, when they sent in someone to
try and like figure out what you knew about Harvey
Weinstein to all this ship during the election, I mean,
we already know that they're in for a ride. And
I still again, like you said, you have an immunity deal.
Don't go extorting people. Not the richest man who could
(40:00):
he could buy AM I if he really wanted to,
some kind of hostile takeover should be like go to
their board and be like, okay, what do you guys?
Okay watching crumple this fucking thing up and toss it
in the garbage can. But again they're the I guess
board of directors at AM. I like, we're gonna look
into this to see if anything untoward occurred. It's like
he published all the emails right there. I did see this.
(40:22):
There's this guy on I think it was Laurence O'Donnell
last night and his title was like, you know, former
senior editor of the l A branch of AM. I.
You know you could just tell like a total sleez
bag back in his day. But he made a really
good point. He was like, you know, you know the
readers of the National Enquirer, right is that? Where is
(40:42):
that the publication that it broke? Right? They He's like
probably five percent of them know who Jeff Bezos is.
You know what I mean? Like this isn't George Clooney
or Brad Pitts dick picks. Like if you were like, hey,
do you know who Jeff Bezos is, they would be like, so,
like what is this? Like you know, there's no fear
(41:05):
and no like, oh I cannot wait to see Jeff
Bezos is dick picks, you know what I mean. Behind Yeah,
So I was like, that's such a good point. It's like, so,
how is it not politically yeah, now, because it seems like,
based on his willingness to turn these over that he
probably has a pretty good looking dick. So like, and
(41:26):
that's just gonna be depressing because he's like the richest
guy in the world and he has a great dick.
Maybe maybe he has some aftermarket work for the woman,
you know what I mean? For him, I'm like, oh what,
you know, it sucks, but like whatever for the woman,
you know, for Laurence Laura, I mean, she's just she
has to Like I would just be like, this is
(41:47):
this is like your worst night? Well yeah, and just
it's it's just so salasious and it's funny because this
is like the first time I find myself being like, yeah,
I'm on Jeff Bezos, is this is a publication Like yeah,
I'm like, yeah, them up, Jeff. He is inherently a
psychopath for having as much money as he has and
(42:07):
not being charitable. There's a list that came out of
like the most charitable, like the top five. He's like
four out of five, Like and the problems with Amazon
and working and you know what I mean. So I
didn't really care that his you know, picture scandal happened,
but like the political fallout, I mean the words government entity,
Like what is it that we're all finding ourselves like
(42:29):
rooting for the FBI. It's like Jesus Christ billionaire exactly.
Well yeah, and then and you know, Bezos isn't the
first person to receive these kinds of threats, you know,
because Ronan Farrell came out, I was like, oh, yeah,
they tried to funk with me too. Yeah, And I
was like he's like, I don't cut deals with people
on investing terrorists. You to negotiate with terrorists. And then
(42:51):
we didn't get anything about Ronan Fara did we Like,
it's not like they like put out some salacious hit
piece on or if they did, nobody noticed, because again,
it's not like the National Enquiry readers are like ronan
pharaoh with a male lover, right, and they're like what
And then AP the journalists from the AP were also
like I think an editor at the AP was also
saying like, yeah, if you my journalists got things from
(43:13):
the from a M I too, being like high snop
sniffing around. It's all so funny to hear everybody mispronounced.
At some point last night, I was like, is it
is it Bezos? Because I've been saying Bezos the entire time,
and then people would come on to comment on the
story and they go Jeff Bezos and I was like, wait,
it's not is it Bezos? But what I'm talking I
(43:35):
was literally laughing for twin miutes because someone's gonna be like,
here's the problem with chef Bezos, and then the next
two seconds would be like Jeff Bezos. When he started,
I was like, that's person. You're running a show. But
this was like you know, CNN, MSNBC. I was like,
could someone just I'll clarify, and then the host is
like this Jeff Bezos not be to the Z to
(43:58):
the Like We're just can someone get a clarification on
how to pronounce this last day. Yeah, that is a
thing with like Mueller as well, and like it's I
feel like there are some people who feel like it's
cool to say it in a different way because it
makes it sound like they know something you don't. Right, Well,
(44:20):
that's interesting, you don't know the derivation from Yeah, yeah,
I mean, myles, you mentioned karma and this just I
don't know, man, this this is a giant, bungling spider
web of corruption and the ringleader is currently the president.
I feel like believing in karma is what gets our
(44:40):
side in trouble a lot of the time. It's just
like there's no karma clearly because they are karma criminal organization,
and the one thing they have is just shamelessness and
like just acting as if doing bad ship will never
come back to bite them in the ass and has
worked for them. They are the president, right, which shows
(45:03):
you that you can side Stebcarma if you're rich enough, right,
unless you're trying to sidestep the richest man, and they'll
be like, no, I'm sorry, my bag is heavier. Right,
all right, we're gonna take a quick break. We'll be
right back, and we're back, and do you guys remember
(45:31):
movie Pass from like five years ago. No, it's has
it been that long? Has it been? I look at
my hands, Agnes twenty five years? So it had a
bad two thousand eighteen movie pass uh and went out
of business. And that's the last we've ever heard of it. Good, goodbye,
(45:52):
good story. Great Okay, well all right, no, actually they're
still in business. Yeah. The Ringer a profile where they
sent one of their reporters to movie Pass headquarters and
they couldn't find it because it's in a doctor's office,
(46:12):
like in a broom closet, or like next to a
doctor's office in what looks like a broom closet, and
it's just the two dudes who totally fucked this whole
thing up, just sitting there and that The description of
the of the interview is that the main guy who
screwed it up, whose name I should know, John movie
Pass Uh. He says that Mitch Low, Mitchell Big Mitch Low,
(46:39):
was answering questions. He said he was holding onto his
seat like he was on a roller coaster, like just
like like he just hasn't recovered from the funk up
that he just put his company through. Yeah, it's I
love it. It just said to their credit, low an
item who is the other the other partner there both
acknowledged this mistake for that basically like burning bridges with
(47:02):
like filmmakers and studios in the theaters. But they're like
just undercutting business. So I said. For most of our conversation,
Lowe's pensive and resigned, often picking at the label of
his water bottle and when answering questions, holding on to
the seat of his chair like a car that's careening
around a corner two fast. Oh my god, that's like
kid in trouble, Just nervous behavior, like I'm just going
(47:23):
to pick the label off this water and do anything. Yeah. Maybe.
But then when you tell them about the description of
even trying to get to the office, that's what's so hilarious.
How they've gone from movie past. Everyone's like, oh, yeah,
we've we're fucking running ship to this the next Netflix
is why it is what they were pitched as. And
(47:44):
so the reporter says, I found myself in the large
entryway into the offices of Abram's Artists Agency. I turned right,
which led to a small office with two chairs and alone.
Abram's branded iPad meant for signing in. It was a
doctor's office only for actors. Finally, I resigned myself to
asking the receptionist at Abrams, and the receptionist said, oh,
(48:06):
it's pretty much right there. She said, just walk straight ahead.
Straight ahead, there was a nondescript door the same color
as the hallway walls. I couldn't be sure that I
had noticed it the first two times I walked past it.
It looked like the door to a broom closet. As
I went to knock, two men opened the door and
sauntered out, revealing a full office space behind them. Is
(48:28):
this movie pass? I asked? They nodded like it's like
they're They're like, sh don't say it out right, what's
the past? And get in here? And then they do
the thing where they peek their head out the door
and look both ways and then slammed the door. Somebody
fucking follow you, dude, or shut the funk up? All right, man,
welcome to the movie pass. My favorite detail, though, is
(48:50):
that as they're fielding these difficult questions because there's no
good answer to their behavior, right, how did you funk
up this, they're like showing the tape, like like Ellis
from die Hard being like showing the watch the tape
on the tape yea pieces video home. So they put
in a video that they have created to like go
(49:12):
around and like pitch movie pass too, just various people
who might give them money to keep this shrade up.
And it's just a highlight reel of movies. It's just
they're just like, yeah, like like one of those Oscar
like reels where it's just there's like movies, huh, pretty great,
and here's some popcorn read one zillion dollars for you
(49:35):
to keep us afloat this is. The video plays like,
oh my god, I think from the articles is the
video plays like one of those compilations the oscars make
every year to remind us that, yes, movies are quite good.
Tom Hardy demanding we dream bigger. In inception a Butt's
a clip of gal Gado as wonder Woman Willy Wonka
waxes poetic while the voiceover speaks of first kisses stolen
(49:55):
away in the darkness of a theater and then just
Tom Cruise running in the firm. Yeah, because that's what
they are doing and you like all that stuff. Yeah,
that was us. We're movies and they're like see dude,
this ship's magic Man, and yeah, we're sorry we burned
your movies movies. There's also the fact that in two
(50:19):
thousand eighteen, something I didn't know about is they send
an email to subscribers from an adorable puppy that actually happened.
Movie Past thought the best way to save their company
was to send their customers an email from Chloe, the
director of Barketing. So after they fucked up, like not
being able to follow through on their promises to their
(50:41):
customers and angry people being like, why do my rates
go up? How come half the dates are blacked out?
I can't even see a movie, their idea is to
send a look at this beautiful, this cute little puppy
with a movie Past bandana on. That's like at the
top of this email, and then the text says, woof.
I'm Chloe, the director of Barketing at Movie Pass. I'd
(51:02):
like to explain why from time to time you have
had a quote rough experience with us, But I'm sorry,
but it turns out that I'm a dog and I
can't talk. What I do know is that I see
these humans working like crazy to make movie Pass better
and better for you as fast as possible. They're so
(51:23):
grateful for your membership and support while they work it out.
We're listening, we're learning, we're changing. I'm a dog. I
can't speak English. Don't get mad at me. Don't get
mad at me. Don't get mad at me. Look how
cute I am? How I were They in a in
the small little office and they're like, you know, let's
just go at the dog. Blame it on that dog.
(51:46):
The dog is chilled. Dogs, may people smile about the
dump we took in the corner. We're a dog, Yeah,
you could. Like. Honestly though, I could see the like
White How employing this tactic at some point of being like,
how do we explain the collusion thing? Cats three Q
(52:07):
cats going, uh, what is collusion? Right? Oh sorry, we're
from mew scow saw me about that defroding the US
that that does seem to be the new sort of
strategy for dealing with fucking up? Is you just I mean,
(52:30):
this is what Facebook does. This is now what movie
Paest does. I'm guessing it's what the White House is
going to do is just yeah, funk up and then
ask for forgiveness. Yeah, but this is so how much
do they move, like, how much do they is it?
Is it? It's not in bankruptcy right, like they're trying
to pull it back. They have those Times Square didn't
(52:50):
they invest? Where where do they get the money? I
don't put up billboards in Times Square when they owe
everybody money and it's it's now is it? It's still
now defunct? Right? Or they're actually holding that cute dog
for hostage and that's where they marketing is gonna get
(53:12):
and a plugger if you don't get the fucking money
to us um. On the same day that those billboards
were unveiled, they were hit with a class action lawsuit. Yeah,
oh really Yeah, beautiful timing. And I mean, I think
the only reason they could possibly still have some value
is the all the access to people's private information that
(53:32):
they have is probably worth something like the data that
they have on their user base, which they will presumably sell.
And you know, and the deal with the deal was
eighty nine movies per week for a dollar, right exactly,
and it imploded cents gets you unlimited movies, right, This
(53:53):
is odd that the numbers didn't crunch out with that
turns out sustainable just doing some quick match, just quick
and when I say quick, I mean you're going to fail.
I just did it in my head without a calculator.
I mean I I can't even Yeah, and then the
director of marketing it's great, it's adorable. Yeah, I think
(54:15):
the genius there who they must have been so relieved
when someone came up with that idea. They're like, what
if we just put Chlothe in the phone, like oh yes,
fuck yeah do that? Do that? Yes? Yes, yes, And
then we're going to change our Facebook profiles to Chloe.
No one can find but literally that, like if you
just say it out loud. Their strategy was pretend to
be a dog, and when people ask us a difficult question,
(54:39):
say we don't speak English because we're a dog, right,
And then you're like I'm sorry what? And then how
did then you think? All right, how did these people
get as far as they did? You know what I mean?
Like they just it's literally about they're probably like great
idiot sales people, you know what I mean, Like they
just sit down the world getting the money people just
(55:00):
blowing forward. I need that skill. Yeah, strata of wealth
though any of other people who have so much just
throw away money that if you're like if you're smarter
than another rich guy. Like this guy is smart, Yeah,
I will kick him a million dollars. And then because
their exit panic strategy is a dog. So, I mean,
it's it's unbelievable. I'm really jealous of how they got them,
(55:26):
Like you know what I mean. It's like people's you know,
trojan horses, Like they go in and they're like they've
got nothing, but they're like, I got I got a
toilet right now. I mean, but think about the fire
Festival documentaries that we've seen recently, Think like, think about
these guys. This is there's like a cheap code to capitalism,
like people have people on the right have been saying
(55:48):
forever that, well, the market is the best way to
decide everything. And it's like, no, you can just fucking cheat.
You can just like lie to people and get all
the money and live in South to coddn't have a
Russian agent as your girlfriend, yes, or you're just Donald Trump, right.
But you know, the thing that I'm actually worried about
in all of this is the three picture deal Bruce
(56:10):
will assigned with Movie Pass. I don't remember Willis as well, guys,
I thought I think Bruce Willis is like something going on.
I think, so, yeah, what do you mean, Well, he
was sober for like twenty five years and now he's
drinking again and he just seems, yeah, he seems like
like out of it in interviews. And then he signed
this three picture deal with movie Pass, which first one
(56:33):
being Moonlighting to Electric Boogle. Yes, I mean we're excited
about that. Yeah, yeah, three picture deal though, right, So
you think that was I mean, yeah, he's selling his
Bedford estate was just put on the markets in the
greater Brentwood area for a Movie Pass. Yeah, I mean,
(56:55):
I think this is also a good lesson that we're
learning is if it seems too good to be true
from a monetary standpoint, it's that's right, if it's too
good to be true, your attorney general. Right. But it's
what we've talked about with Facebook and Google, like they
(57:16):
they're not giving you these amazing services for free. They're
giving them to you and selling your information. They're getting
the good end of the stick. So if the word
oligarch is in your contract, read it carefully signed terms
of service, stay in touch with your friends, and donate
(57:37):
to Russian oligarchs. The US together look at people's baby pictures,
you don't. Russian's right outside your window dictates that's that
is Trump's go to movies. That's sniff. I wonder if
(57:59):
on the Hello prompter it says inhale vigorously through nostrils,
get that drip going poppy. The meme someone sent me
a meme of I'm sure you guys have seen it
of the Nancy Blosi the clap, the clap right behind
Maroon five. Dude. It was. It was seriously like the
(58:21):
funniest thing ever. So he's shirtless and then she's right
behind him doing the clap. Impressive. It was. I don't
know what Millennial is in the basement doing those memes,
but um, they're amazing. People had at work, you know exactly,
and then getting it stolen by and then Jerry is
stealing it and giving it time and there's a loop
(58:41):
there we go there. It is a circle of life. Aaron,
