like we get on tangents and I just said, shall

Now you say it to your kids and like what.

My name is Jack O'Brien. That's mister Miles great Marbs.
This is the trending episode where we tell you what
is trending on this Tuesday, May thirteenth, and I'll tell
you one thing that's frickin' trending.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
You know what.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
We're gonna top and tail this episode.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
And there's a theme to these stories, a shared theme
to the story at the beginning in the end, and
I'm not gonna tell you what it is.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
You're gonna have to figure it out. Figure it out.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Story number one, RB's is testing a menu item that
is made from steak. Steak made from steak, made from steak?
Is it steak made from steak? I'll tell you one
thing there there it was steak at one point.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Okay, that's fine, that's fine. But is it said?
Speaker 1 (02:08):
I was saying before we serve recording that I'm not
generally a fan of fried steak like chicken fried staed right.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
I just looks like this is real steak though in
the pictures is there's no fry to it? No, this
is a straight up steak, just a little snakes that
it looks like it looks like they're like, baby, let
me cut up your meat.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Oh damn, that actually looks pretty good. All right, never mind,
Glad I didn't just spend a bunch of time talking
about fried steak.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Cheah. I mean, I'm on board, I'm back. I'm yeah,
I mean, I'm I'm curious. It's not how you look.
It's hard to mass cook steak. I'm like that.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
So I'm but if anybody can, it's Army's. They've got
the meats. They do have the meats.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
I had up man, I I was sick of beef
and cheddars. But when I took that road trip recently
over Easter, ye up up up the five. Her Majesty
loves Arbi's because she used to work by the one
on sunset when it was still open, and she's like,
their Halapenio poppers are so good and they're blow chicken sliders.
I had both. I'm like, these are the most normal
(03:20):
fast food. I thought they were different. I'm like, Jack
in the boxes are better than this one, and the
Buffalo sider is so pedestrian. I'm like, you gotta eat
the fucking beef and chats like no disgust. Yeah. Got.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
There's something about like being like when you're really hungry
in your like twenties or something like that first job
hunger that like never quite leaves you just like imprints
on you.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah, what were you eating? I had?
Speaker 1 (03:42):
So I worked my first, very first job in high
school was as a bus boy at an Italian restaurant, okay,
and I just remember looking at the food as I
was like busting people's table, being like, God, damn it,
I want to eat every bite that this person left
on the table. I was so hungry and so I
(04:03):
I think that at least partially has something to do
with how much I love Italian food. In the cart,
you ever eat the leavings, Yeah, I definitely take the leaving.
I don't think I did it at that job because
I was like, I was a little scared, you know,
you know, and.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Yeah I did.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
I didn't want to get kicked out for the leavings just.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
By part of the plate. Dude, this this mashed potato
scoop is immaculate. I'm sorry it didn't touch anything.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
But then uh my next like waiting job, I I
would just eat the ship out of some fries man, Yeah, fries,
Like that's that's his own food group.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
I start on that Gordon Ramsay show, Hell's Kitchen, that
competition show, and like all these all the food that
comes at, Like you know, there's like a fake restaurant
where people eat at. We would all we would fucking
because they would also it's like a produced show, so
they would put out like extra food just for like
the visuals of the show, and some so the server.
Some would just take it straight to the back and
(05:03):
just put it on this table because it was just
for the camera. And we would all fucking fight over
these fucking pints of food, like truly, like that's not
even fair. The last time there was duck last night,
you got the first fucking bite.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
And they're like trying to bite each other like dogs
when the food gets put out for both of them
at once.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
We look like like Pirates of the Caribbean animatronics. Like
people just absolutely lost it over like scraps of food.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
You have a saber in one hand waving it.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Just like biting it, like holding like a fucking club
that has a flame on the end. Oh well, we'll
see what happens.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Let's let's check in with the Democrats. A couple of
stories break them through the big one. I'd say, there's
a new book coming out about what's it called Original Sin. Yeah,
it's got on the cover it's Joe Biden with his
hands over his eyes.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Yep. Just gonna say.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
If I'm ever in a moody photo shoot and they're like,
all right between like do a serious one and now
a fun one, They're like, and do one with your
hands over your eyes?
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Yeah, couldn't be me. I'm not gonna use this on
a book about how I'm senile, aren't you. No, You're
a good photo to have floating out there on the
off chance that you ruin the future of the country
through uh just insane hubris. I'm curious if that's photoshopped
(06:28):
or that's a genuine photo of Biden actually covering his face,
you know what I mean, because it's framed in a
way that you could just cleverly get another mummy's hands
to be pretend Biden hands. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
I was just about to say, well, Brian the editor
put in the chat that they were just like, all right,
mister president played peekaboo.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
That's how they got his mental acuity test. Mister president. Hey,
where'd you go? Man, I'm not calling for it this time. Okay, well,
then cover your mister president. It was just okay, but
supposedly pikaboo Pikaboo. That song's really had.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
That was the very first song off that album that
we were like, God, we love that song. And now
it's like it's on the NBA Playoffs. It's like in
every commercial. Very surprised by how mainstream.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Just the opening of that, I mean, does feel like
something where Joe Biden is like, what they talk about,
they talk about, what they talk about, what they talk
on they talk about nothing. Yeah, that was his internal monologue.
Drop what they talk about? They how do they ghet
these boogers on my shirt eighty years old? Like? What
(07:41):
the fuck?
Speaker 1 (07:43):
So this is this is a book where they interviewed
Democratic strategists and uh, you know, people behind both the
Biden and Harris campaign, and they are just taking this
opportunity to fucking throw his ass under the bus. One
prominent Democratic strategist who publicly defended Biden claimed that he
(08:05):
quote stole an election from the Democratic Party.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
He stole it from the American people.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
I'm sorry, Big Tim Robinson and a hot dog suit
energy coming from a Democratic strategist there who publicly like,
who's defending him? When weed to know that he couldn't no.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
No, we should get a name. So these people are
fucking never fucking listened to, Like, this is the exact
shit that irritates me to the point of that's like
such a light word, irritates fucking I'm using my shit
over the fact that these people are so opportunistic to
take the fucking consultant money and be like yeah, yeah, yeah,
(08:44):
this is it, this is gonna work, there's gonna work.
And then afterwards like he fucked us, he stole an
election from the Democratic Party and the people, and yeah,
I was raw ring it in public and saying everything
was okay, we're fine.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Everybody needs to stop with the bed wedding. Remember that, right,
Oh my god, oh man, the crooked guys.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Everybody's got to stop with the bed wedding. The bed
wedding is coming from inside the presidential bedroom. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Unfortunately, in this case, there is literal bed wedding happening
inside his inner circle.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Also, this one is getting a lot of headlines.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
His inner circle had a secret plan to transfer him
to a wheelchair if he was re elected.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
If as like a treat. You know, you can have
a wheelchair as a treat if you defeat Donald Trump
in the general election. Because they want to do it.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Buff, Like they were like, the responsible thing to do
would be put this motherfucker in a wheelchair. Now, Like
you guys think it's nerve racking to watch him try
to finish a sentence, how about just trying to like
go down some stage. Yeah, yeah, walk on a stage,
Like that's what we should be worried, Like that's the
level of concern we have. But unfortunately, like that's not
(09:58):
gonna win the election. And so they were like, we're
gonna hold off and just you know, like it sounds
like it went way better than it could have, Like
the way like their ability to hide this went way
better because he didn't like fall over a ton of
times in public.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Yeah, you know, I mean, the best job for them,
even though most of us were watching him and going,
get this guy the fuck out of here. Are you serious,
don't run him, do not run him? And yeah, here
we are now, and they're like, actually, we knew he was.
He was cooked from the get go. You're like, it didn't.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Pluff, who worked on Harris's campaign, was quoted as saying
that the campaign was a fucking nightmare because Biden totally
fucked us. Wow, they're talking tough now that there's absolutely
nothing to be done.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Yeah, yeah, exactly. Every I hate this revision as shit,
like everyone if everyone saw it, because everyone's like, we
knew how bad it was. Well, guess what. You're also
the people who were fucking standing idly by, and now
afterwards you're like, they fucked Biden really fucked us. Yeah
you can't.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
You can't make it sound this obvious, like he literally
says in the book and it's all Biden Pluff ads,
he totally fucked us.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
It's all his fault. It's like, what, No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, David Pluff. Your two thousand and eight Obama
fucking playbook does not work. In twenty twenty four, Oh my.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
God, I just got a New York Times like news
update push notification where they were like we talked to
nineteen ninety two Democratic strategists to see how the Democrats
can fix I was like, for real, like that, what?
Speaker 2 (11:39):
How? How is that still what you're doing. That's like
being like we went back in time to ask a
cave person how we can tackle the AI problem right exactly?
Speaker 1 (11:48):
How the senior aide who quote quit the White House
because they did not think Biden should run. Told Taper
and Thompson that we attempted to shield him from his
own staff. So many people we didn't. So many people
didn't realize the extent of the decline beginning in twenty
twenty three.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
God, so they even his own staff didn't realize it.
This is so again irritating. I might add to read
all of this stuff because you couple that with everything
we're seeing now. Like Amy Klobachar recently went on NBC
and said this quote, you know, everything we look at
in a rear view mirror after you lose an election. Yes,
we would have been served better by a primary, but
(12:28):
we are where we are. I'm not interested in going
backwards in time. I'm interested in going forward, and I'm
interested in I'm focused on helping the American people.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I'm interested in going forward and doing that shit.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
All again, all over again.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
I will keep my mouth shut just based on whatever
the DNC is doing, it's gonna be Boodha Judge AOC.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
I feel like, right, it's like that's who's going to
come down to. They love Buddha Jedge. I think there's
Pritzker and Newsom are definitely also people that I think
they're also thinking about too, because here's the other because
we're all we talk about, right is in the aftermath
of this terrible fucking election loss. It's like Democrats need
to fucking wake the fuck up. The problem is the
status quo is killing people. The first person to reach
(13:10):
the we're not the status quo anymore finish line is
going to do much better in the next election. And
for them, obviously that's impossible because they're so entrenched in
their ideology. But that's the state of things. And then
like you have like David Hog right, like we just
found out that the DNC is about to make a vote,
take a vote to potentially strip him of his vice
(13:31):
chair position and make it because he's openly being like
we need some new blood still, Okay, so there's a
little bit of contention here. Another person, Malcolm Kenyato, is
also a vice chair who would also have to he's
in the same position as David Hogg. Apparently there was
some kind of procedural error that they're saying would like
necessitate another election or vote on this has publicly said
(13:53):
that David Hogg is making this story about him and
that the complaint about his position came well before or
he even announced this like pack that he was launching
to primary Democratic incumbents, but the timing is odd either way,
given the DNC's propensity to purge people that rock the vote. Yeah,
so it's like everything's like, oh, you guys are going
(14:14):
right back to fucking falling right back into the bullshit
that got you here in the first place. Like this
these Biden book quotes are just like it's not us.
It was fucking Biden. It's not us, it's all Biden
or the other ones, Like it's all the people who
cared about Gaza. It's their fault. It's like, that's no
democracy's work, Like you don't you're you're you're you're supposed
(14:36):
to court a vote and if you don't get them,
that means you didn't court a sufficient vote to win.
That's like you can't have a business. Or you sell
rotten meat and you're like, well it went down because
no one wants to eat rotten meat.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
I mean, the thought for them to say is he
fucked us because Harris was not able to run away
from him, like she felt like she had to like
back all of his policies, like that's the only way
that I could see him fucking them because like did
he force Harris to run as like a Cheney endorsed
(15:09):
GOP candidate.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Basically he talked.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
More about like her gun than she did about you know,
I don't know Biden's support of Israeli genocide like that.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
I mean a little bit. I'll talk about a little
bit in that I talk about how I don't want.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
To talk to the activists, right exactly.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Yeah, it's and then like Jasmine Crockett to your point
about like which white guy is it gonna be? This
is what she said recently, like on like a serious
XM appearance, you did quote it is this fear that
the people within the party, within the part primary system
will have about voting for a woman, because every time
we voted for a woman we've lost so far. I
think that that's natural, that's a natural fear because we
(15:50):
just want to win. So there's a lot of people
that are like, you know what, like let's go find
the safest white boy we can find. I mean, I'm
just saying major So she said, then major donors are
excited about quote one specific candidate quote. I had a
donor on the phone with me telling me that all
the donors are lining up behind that candidate, so I
can tell and I tell you it's not a black
(16:11):
person nor a woman. So they have quote unquote, they
have chosen. She added. When I say they, it's the
same donors that most likely had their opinions about Joe
Biden and moved, so like that would be the they
that I would talk about in this instance.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Yeah, I think that's Budhaje because first of all, she
didn't say straight white man, and second of all, I
just I feel like Buddhaja allows them to be like
and he look at him. He has these good social
media eclips where he's like owning people on their podcast.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Wasn't it the High Hopes song that his campaign was
playing High High Hopes for Hopes And You're like, I
don't know, man, that's not the energy in America right now.
It's like so sanitized.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
And I feel like he's coming back with like dark
bodhajege where he's like got like three days growth of
beard and he's just like coming on being like, you know,
I feel like for how scared the Democrats are of
like gay people and fighting for gay people's rights that
they would almost be like it can't be booted, Like
we don't even you know what they're gonna They're gonna
(17:14):
hammer us on the fact that he's gay. It was like,
I feel like that's the kind of regressive thinking the
DNC would have given.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
They're like sure the Goddess would divey them, ad, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's right.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
They wanted to be got by the day of them
AD Like they were just waiting for that so that they.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Could throw and throw another group of people under the
bus rather than your inability to court the votes that
were there.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
That fucks with our ability to think triangulation is a
good idea, and so we're gonna we're gonna claim that.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
I mean, the Republican set match are also just as
much like in quote unquote disarray, because like you look
at this budget bill they just put out. They're gonna
have to make eight hundred and eighty billion dollars and
cuts to medicaid, and yeah, that's a lot. Josh Holly,
Senator Josh Holly, the fucking biggest coward on the Capitol.
He's even like, I don't know, this isn't a good
look for us. This is like political suicide. Fucking with
(18:12):
something like medicaid. I don't know if y'all are actually
understanding this. So they're just in a weird place. You're like,
but we have to feed the rich hogs their tax cuts? Yeah, yeah,
how do we do it? Didn't? Uh?
Speaker 1 (18:24):
The FBI guy, Trump's FBI guy just like show up
and like not have his budget.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Cash, Like yeah, a budget beating. He is like patting
his He's like shit and there, yeah, and I remember that.
The vice chair, the co chair or the ranking member
on that community is like, you need to have this legally, buddy,
what are you doing? And he I mean credit him.
He's such a bullshitter that, you know, he seamlessly found
(18:49):
some really tired excuse to be like working with our
agency partners, and we are finalizing that and I will
bring that and I will. She's like, are you violating
the law right now because legally you need to have
come with it like a pot luck and I'm working
with my agency.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Okay, let's take a quick break. We'll come back and
talk about what Trump's up to, and we're back.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
We're back. What's he up to? Trying to overthrow the
Postal Service? Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, there's that.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
I mean, yeah, this is old new Like during during
the first administration, he kept talking about how we should
privatize the US Postal Service and then you know, earlier
this week, David Steiner was appointed as the next Postmaster
General and CEO of the US Postal Service. And that
appointment was fish shat Yeah, fishier than JM. Rope Captain
(19:51):
Highliner's body. Odor I had to look into who Captain
Highliner was. He's the guy from like the fish sticks
ads say fish here. Then last night's NBA Draft lottery,
Oh you want to?
Speaker 2 (20:07):
I mean, we can't say it on the other should
you know what I mean? You know that straight off
the docks.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
That's generally not an NBA conspiracy theorist, but that should is.
I mean a Lakers year after the Lakers get a
suspiciously good player traded to them, that team that trades
the really good player gets the number one pick.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
I mean, but at least our trade for a d
wasn't as janky as the one for a Luk. Yeah,
you gave up a lot, Yeah, we gave up a lot. Yeah,
but it is ironic. It's like you give us a
dynastic like a fucking generational talent in the NBA, and
we will respond with one first first pick for you.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
One number one pick, which, like in retrospect, the only
thing that if you assume that that number one pick
was involved in the trade, it's the only way the
trade now makes sense, right, Like if you're just like, okay,
Luca for Anthony Davis and Cooper Flag, then yeah that
(21:15):
makes sense.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Yeah, but then you're like, oh, yeah, we can work
with that.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Anyways, for non NBA fans probably don't give a shit
about this, but it is very interesting.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Yet, said Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram and Josh Hart. That's right,
Josh Hart. Josh Hart, look at you now, Hey, worked
out for you, buddy.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Shout out to the Knicks and sorry to Celtics fans
and of course Jason Tatum. You really hate to see
that happen, you do.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
There's another headline a lot. There's a few more aids.
Two AIDS have now quit John Fetterman's office because it
seems like it's getting worse and worse.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Now. It really feels like it's a thing where like
people should be like we're just say for safety, people
should be get away from that.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I mean the fact that so much of like the
center left media is openly questioning where he's at, shows
that like the machine is already it's moving against him.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
But just back to the post office because that's not
going to exist pretty soon. Steiner is a member of
the FedEx Board of Directors.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
He knows he gets it right.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
It's so the selection is very you know, questionable, what
would have been very questionable. And then they also announced
his selection without doing the vote publicly like you're supposed to.
They were just like and it's Steiner's a guy, So Steiner,
which makes sense because Trump was threatening to fire everybody
(22:44):
on that board if he didn't get elected the board
of governor. So it's I don't know what this looks.
I guess it's just like the post office no longer exists.
I hadn't realized, but of course it makes sense that
like fed X up, like all the for profit delivery
services have like from day one, been like we just
(23:05):
got to take the post office out there. It's so
frustrating to us that they can that they will just
do what we do but for free, Like this is terrible.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
We need to make people pay for this shit. It's
like one of the few things that we have that's
good in this country is our postal service. Like fucking
hell man, it's and now Trump's in uh Saudi Arabia
now just sundowning and riad in front of Mohammed ben Salmon. Yeah,
just yeah, it's right now. I just want to play
(23:38):
a clip of this. He's he's rambling right now, like
in this speech.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
And we have great partners in the world, but we
have none stronger and no nobody like the gentleman that's
right before me. He's your greatest representative, greatest representative.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
MBS. Yeah, uh, mister fucking disappear. The fucking journalists.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Yeah, they feel like that's a real half assed compliment,
by the way.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Kind of I didn't like him, I'd get out of
here so fast.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Wow, know that, don't you?
Speaker 3 (24:17):
He knows me well, I do. I like him a lot.
I like him too much.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
That's why we give so much. You know, too much?
I like you too much?
Speaker 2 (24:28):
What does that even? Was that a reference to the murder?
And if I didn't like him, I'd get out of
here quickly? No, I think here, yeah, here because I
like this guy. Otherwise, fuck you guys. And like Elon's
behind him in like a k hole completely lost there.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Yeah, that was He's back and it's good they got
back together.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
I'm sure he's he probably also needs to be like
behind MBS. Yeah, ok, yeah, yeah, like he's he's also
he's i think, courting that Gulf State money for you know,
his failing audiences. So she said, can I go with
you on that trip on your money begging trip dead?
Can I come? Yeah? Just can you go on your
own jet though? Please? So yeah, that's everything's happening right now.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
And finally, the last story the book and a new
mission impossible popcorn bucket that requires a two part key
for you to open it.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Fuck yeah, dude, a two part key this one?
Speaker 1 (25:27):
I yeah, So I thought it was like one of
those double like when they want to launch a nuclear weapon,
they have like the two keys that turn at once
like that you have to Unfortunately, this is just a
key that you put together, like a very easy puzzle
for babies, and then you put the key in to
get your popcorn. The popcorn itself looks like it's inside.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Of like a Coleman camping lantern.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yeah yeah, I don't know how this maybe it might
maybe it ties in it's surprisingly unfuckable.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
It's yeah, I mean unless you're you have some kind
of plus sign shaped anatomy where the key hole goes.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
But right right, no, this is not Yeah, yeah, I
mean like metaphorically, maybe key in lock is there, Like,
that's plenty. That's plenty for people to talk about. Fucking
we be to wrap what KiB to lock.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Yeah. Also, I'm more I'm more upset by the actual
amount of popcorn this thing holds. I think it's like
about the capacity of a small popcorn.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Yeah, it's a massive like you know, just so much
plastic around a very small amount of popcorn. Yeah, this
is which, this is bad. This isn't l sorry for unfortunately,
it's for me dog.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Yeah, but I am I I hear this movie is good.
I still haven't watched the last one. I really need
to watch it and then go see sure you haven't,
because I was thinking that I haven't, but I remember that.
I think like for the last six flights I've had,
I've been watching it piecemeal.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Oh no, I haven't watched like I have started the
first like one minute and haven't even been able to
get myself because it just feels so much like one
of those things you see in theaters. I just always
would find myself going to see these in theaters and
just missane.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
It's like sanctified and you're like, I can't kind of,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
It's just like weird to watch a Mission Impossible movie
that like has famous stunts in it, like on your phone.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
But having the second one come out will hopefully push
me when I am going to see Friendship this afternoon.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Oh nice, Well, I'll look forward to that. Taking your kids, yeah, exactly,
they're gonna love it. All right.

like we get on tangents and I just said, shall
we's there? And shall we never leave? In my mind?
Now you say it to your kids and like what.

This is the trending episode where we tell you what
is trending on this Tuesday, May thirteenth, and I'll tell
you one thing that's frickin' trending.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
You know what.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
We're gonna top and tail this episode.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
And there's a theme to these stories, a shared theme
to the story at the beginning in the end, and
I'm not gonna tell you what it is.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
You're gonna have to figure it out. Figure it out.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Story number one, RB's is testing a menu item that
is made from steak. Steak made from steak, made from steak?
Is it steak made from steak? I'll tell you one
thing there there it was steak at one point.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Okay, that's fine, that's fine. But is it said?
Speaker 1 (02:08):
I was saying before we serve recording that I'm not
generally a fan of fried steak like chicken fried staed right.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
I just looks like this is real steak though in
the pictures is there's no fry to it? No, this
is a straight up steak, just a little snakes that
it looks like it looks like they're like, baby, let
me cut up your meat.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Oh damn, that actually looks pretty good. All right, never mind,
Glad I didn't just spend a bunch of time talking
about fried steak.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Cheah. I mean, I'm on board, I'm back. I'm yeah,
I mean, I'm I'm curious. It's not how you look.
It's hard to mass cook steak. I'm like that.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
So I'm but if anybody can, it's Army's. They've got
the meats. They do have the meats.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
I had up man, I I was sick of beef
and cheddars. But when I took that road trip recently
over Easter, ye up up up the five. Her Majesty
loves Arbi's because she used to work by the one
on sunset when it was still open, and she's like,
their Halapenio poppers are so good and they're blow chicken sliders.
I had both. I'm like, these are the most normal
(03:20):
fast food. I thought they were different. I'm like, Jack
in the boxes are better than this one, and the
Buffalo sider is so pedestrian. I'm like, you gotta eat
the fucking beef and chats like no disgust. Yeah. Got.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
There's something about like being like when you're really hungry
in your like twenties or something like that first job
hunger that like never quite leaves you just like imprints
on you.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah, what were you eating? I had?
Speaker 1 (03:42):
So I worked my first, very first job in high
school was as a bus boy at an Italian restaurant, okay,
and I just remember looking at the food as I
was like busting people's table, being like, God, damn it,
I want to eat every bite that this person left
on the table. I was so hungry and so I
(04:03):
I think that at least partially has something to do
with how much I love Italian food. In the cart,
you ever eat the leavings, Yeah, I definitely take the leaving.
I don't think I did it at that job because
I was like, I was a little scared, you know,
you know, and.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Yeah I did.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
I didn't want to get kicked out for the leavings just.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
By part of the plate. Dude, this this mashed potato
scoop is immaculate. I'm sorry it didn't touch anything.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
But then uh my next like waiting job, I I
would just eat the ship out of some fries man, Yeah, fries,
Like that's that's his own food group.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
I start on that Gordon Ramsay show, Hell's Kitchen, that
competition show, and like all these all the food that
comes at, Like you know, there's like a fake restaurant
where people eat at. We would all we would fucking
because they would also it's like a produced show, so
they would put out like extra food just for like
the visuals of the show, and some so the server.
Some would just take it straight to the back and
(05:03):
just put it on this table because it was just
for the camera. And we would all fucking fight over
these fucking pints of food, like truly, like that's not
even fair. The last time there was duck last night,
you got the first fucking bite.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
And they're like trying to bite each other like dogs
when the food gets put out for both of them
at once.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
We look like like Pirates of the Caribbean animatronics. Like
people just absolutely lost it over like scraps of food.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
You have a saber in one hand waving it.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Just like biting it, like holding like a fucking club
that has a flame on the end. Oh well, we'll
see what happens.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Let's let's check in with the Democrats. A couple of
stories break them through the big one. I'd say, there's
a new book coming out about what's it called Original Sin. Yeah,
it's got on the cover it's Joe Biden with his
hands over his eyes.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Yep. Just gonna say.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
If I'm ever in a moody photo shoot and they're like,
all right between like do a serious one and now
a fun one, They're like, and do one with your
hands over your eyes?
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Yeah, couldn't be me. I'm not gonna use this on
a book about how I'm senile, aren't you. No, You're
a good photo to have floating out there on the
off chance that you ruin the future of the country
through uh just insane hubris. I'm curious if that's photoshopped
(06:28):
or that's a genuine photo of Biden actually covering his face,
you know what I mean, because it's framed in a
way that you could just cleverly get another mummy's hands
to be pretend Biden hands. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
I was just about to say, well, Brian the editor
put in the chat that they were just like, all right,
mister president played peekaboo.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
That's how they got his mental acuity test. Mister president. Hey,
where'd you go? Man, I'm not calling for it this time. Okay, well,
then cover your mister president. It was just okay, but
supposedly pikaboo Pikaboo. That song's really had.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
That was the very first song off that album that
we were like, God, we love that song. And now
it's like it's on the NBA Playoffs. It's like in
every commercial. Very surprised by how mainstream.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Just the opening of that, I mean, does feel like
something where Joe Biden is like, what they talk about,
they talk about, what they talk about, what they talk
on they talk about nothing. Yeah, that was his internal monologue.
Drop what they talk about? They how do they ghet
these boogers on my shirt eighty years old? Like? What
(07:41):
the fuck?
Speaker 1 (07:43):
So this is this is a book where they interviewed
Democratic strategists and uh, you know, people behind both the
Biden and Harris campaign, and they are just taking this
opportunity to fucking throw his ass under the bus. One
prominent Democratic strategist who publicly defended Biden claimed that he
(08:05):
quote stole an election from the Democratic Party.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
He stole it from the American people.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
I'm sorry, Big Tim Robinson and a hot dog suit
energy coming from a Democratic strategist there who publicly like,
who's defending him? When weed to know that he couldn't no.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
No, we should get a name. So these people are
fucking never fucking listened to, Like, this is the exact
shit that irritates me to the point of that's like
such a light word, irritates fucking I'm using my shit
over the fact that these people are so opportunistic to
take the fucking consultant money and be like yeah, yeah, yeah,
(08:44):
this is it, this is gonna work, there's gonna work.
And then afterwards like he fucked us, he stole an
election from the Democratic Party and the people, and yeah,
I was raw ring it in public and saying everything
was okay, we're fine.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Everybody needs to stop with the bed wedding. Remember that, right,
Oh my god, oh man, the crooked guys.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Everybody's got to stop with the bed wedding. The bed
wedding is coming from inside the presidential bedroom. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Unfortunately, in this case, there is literal bed wedding happening
inside his inner circle.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Also, this one is getting a lot of headlines.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
His inner circle had a secret plan to transfer him
to a wheelchair if he was re elected.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
If as like a treat. You know, you can have
a wheelchair as a treat if you defeat Donald Trump
in the general election. Because they want to do it.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Buff, Like they were like, the responsible thing to do
would be put this motherfucker in a wheelchair. Now, Like
you guys think it's nerve racking to watch him try
to finish a sentence, how about just trying to like
go down some stage. Yeah, yeah, walk on a stage,
Like that's what we should be worried, Like that's the
level of concern we have. But unfortunately, like that's not
(09:58):
gonna win the election. And so they were like, we're
gonna hold off and just you know, like it sounds
like it went way better than it could have, Like
the way like their ability to hide this went way
better because he didn't like fall over a ton of
times in public.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Yeah, you know, I mean, the best job for them,
even though most of us were watching him and going,
get this guy the fuck out of here. Are you serious,
don't run him, do not run him? And yeah, here
we are now, and they're like, actually, we knew he was.
He was cooked from the get go. You're like, it didn't.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Pluff, who worked on Harris's campaign, was quoted as saying
that the campaign was a fucking nightmare because Biden totally
fucked us. Wow, they're talking tough now that there's absolutely
nothing to be done.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Yeah, yeah, exactly. Every I hate this revision as shit,
like everyone if everyone saw it, because everyone's like, we
knew how bad it was. Well, guess what. You're also
the people who were fucking standing idly by, and now
afterwards you're like, they fucked Biden really fucked us. Yeah
you can't.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
You can't make it sound this obvious, like he literally
says in the book and it's all Biden Pluff ads,
he totally fucked us.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
It's all his fault. It's like, what, No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, David Pluff. Your two thousand and eight Obama
fucking playbook does not work. In twenty twenty four, Oh my.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
God, I just got a New York Times like news
update push notification where they were like we talked to
nineteen ninety two Democratic strategists to see how the Democrats
can fix I was like, for real, like that, what?
Speaker 2 (11:39):
How? How is that still what you're doing. That's like
being like we went back in time to ask a
cave person how we can tackle the AI problem right exactly?
Speaker 1 (11:48):
How the senior aide who quote quit the White House
because they did not think Biden should run. Told Taper
and Thompson that we attempted to shield him from his
own staff. So many people we didn't. So many people
didn't realize the extent of the decline beginning in twenty
twenty three.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
God, so they even his own staff didn't realize it.
This is so again irritating. I might add to read
all of this stuff because you couple that with everything
we're seeing now. Like Amy Klobachar recently went on NBC
and said this quote, you know, everything we look at
in a rear view mirror after you lose an election. Yes,
we would have been served better by a primary, but
(12:28):
we are where we are. I'm not interested in going
backwards in time. I'm interested in going forward, and I'm
interested in I'm focused on helping the American people.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I'm interested in going forward and doing that shit.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
All again, all over again.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
I will keep my mouth shut just based on whatever
the DNC is doing, it's gonna be Boodha Judge AOC.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
I feel like, right, it's like that's who's going to
come down to. They love Buddha Jedge. I think there's
Pritzker and Newsom are definitely also people that I think
they're also thinking about too, because here's the other because
we're all we talk about, right is in the aftermath
of this terrible fucking election loss. It's like Democrats need
to fucking wake the fuck up. The problem is the
status quo is killing people. The first person to reach
(13:10):
the we're not the status quo anymore finish line is
going to do much better in the next election. And
for them, obviously that's impossible because they're so entrenched in
their ideology. But that's the state of things. And then
like you have like David Hog right, like we just
found out that the DNC is about to make a vote,
take a vote to potentially strip him of his vice
(13:31):
chair position and make it because he's openly being like
we need some new blood still, Okay, so there's a
little bit of contention here. Another person, Malcolm Kenyato, is
also a vice chair who would also have to he's
in the same position as David Hogg. Apparently there was
some kind of procedural error that they're saying would like
necessitate another election or vote on this has publicly said
(13:53):
that David Hogg is making this story about him and
that the complaint about his position came well before or
he even announced this like pack that he was launching
to primary Democratic incumbents, but the timing is odd either way,
given the DNC's propensity to purge people that rock the vote. Yeah,
so it's like everything's like, oh, you guys are going
(14:14):
right back to fucking falling right back into the bullshit
that got you here in the first place. Like this
these Biden book quotes are just like it's not us.
It was fucking Biden. It's not us, it's all Biden
or the other ones, Like it's all the people who
cared about Gaza. It's their fault. It's like, that's no
democracy's work, Like you don't you're you're you're you're supposed
(14:36):
to court a vote and if you don't get them,
that means you didn't court a sufficient vote to win.
That's like you can't have a business. Or you sell
rotten meat and you're like, well it went down because
no one wants to eat rotten meat.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
I mean, the thought for them to say is he
fucked us because Harris was not able to run away
from him, like she felt like she had to like
back all of his policies, like that's the only way
that I could see him fucking them because like did
he force Harris to run as like a Cheney endorsed
(15:09):
GOP candidate.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Basically he talked.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
More about like her gun than she did about you know,
I don't know Biden's support of Israeli genocide like that.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
I mean a little bit. I'll talk about a little
bit in that I talk about how I don't want.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
To talk to the activists, right exactly.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Yeah, it's and then like Jasmine Crockett to your point
about like which white guy is it gonna be? This
is what she said recently, like on like a serious
XM appearance, you did quote it is this fear that
the people within the party, within the part primary system
will have about voting for a woman, because every time
we voted for a woman we've lost so far. I
think that that's natural, that's a natural fear because we
(15:50):
just want to win. So there's a lot of people
that are like, you know what, like let's go find
the safest white boy we can find. I mean, I'm
just saying major So she said, then major donors are
excited about quote one specific candidate quote. I had a
donor on the phone with me telling me that all
the donors are lining up behind that candidate, so I
can tell and I tell you it's not a black
(16:11):
person nor a woman. So they have quote unquote, they
have chosen. She added. When I say they, it's the
same donors that most likely had their opinions about Joe
Biden and moved, so like that would be the they
that I would talk about in this instance.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Yeah, I think that's Budhaje because first of all, she
didn't say straight white man, and second of all, I
just I feel like Buddhaja allows them to be like
and he look at him. He has these good social
media eclips where he's like owning people on their podcast.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Wasn't it the High Hopes song that his campaign was
playing High High Hopes for Hopes And You're like, I
don't know, man, that's not the energy in America right now.
It's like so sanitized.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
And I feel like he's coming back with like dark
bodhajege where he's like got like three days growth of
beard and he's just like coming on being like, you know,
I feel like for how scared the Democrats are of
like gay people and fighting for gay people's rights that
they would almost be like it can't be booted, Like
we don't even you know what they're gonna They're gonna
(17:14):
hammer us on the fact that he's gay. It was like,
I feel like that's the kind of regressive thinking the
DNC would have given.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
They're like sure the Goddess would divey them, ad, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's right.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
They wanted to be got by the day of them
AD Like they were just waiting for that so that they.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Could throw and throw another group of people under the
bus rather than your inability to court the votes that
were there.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
That fucks with our ability to think triangulation is a
good idea, and so we're gonna we're gonna claim that.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
I mean, the Republican set match are also just as
much like in quote unquote disarray, because like you look
at this budget bill they just put out. They're gonna
have to make eight hundred and eighty billion dollars and
cuts to medicaid, and yeah, that's a lot. Josh Holly,
Senator Josh Holly, the fucking biggest coward on the Capitol.
He's even like, I don't know, this isn't a good
look for us. This is like political suicide. Fucking with
(18:12):
something like medicaid. I don't know if y'all are actually
understanding this. So they're just in a weird place. You're like,
but we have to feed the rich hogs their tax cuts? Yeah, yeah,
how do we do it? Didn't? Uh?
Speaker 1 (18:24):
The FBI guy, Trump's FBI guy just like show up
and like not have his budget.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Cash, Like yeah, a budget beating. He is like patting
his He's like shit and there, yeah, and I remember that.
The vice chair, the co chair or the ranking member
on that community is like, you need to have this legally, buddy,
what are you doing? And he I mean credit him.
He's such a bullshitter that, you know, he seamlessly found
(18:49):
some really tired excuse to be like working with our
agency partners, and we are finalizing that and I will
bring that and I will. She's like, are you violating
the law right now because legally you need to have
come with it like a pot luck and I'm working
with my agency.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Okay, let's take a quick break. We'll come back and
talk about what Trump's up to, and we're back.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
We're back. What's he up to? Trying to overthrow the
Postal Service? Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, there's that.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
I mean, yeah, this is old new Like during during
the first administration, he kept talking about how we should
privatize the US Postal Service and then you know, earlier
this week, David Steiner was appointed as the next Postmaster
General and CEO of the US Postal Service. And that
appointment was fish shat Yeah, fishier than JM. Rope Captain
(19:51):
Highliner's body. Odor I had to look into who Captain
Highliner was. He's the guy from like the fish sticks
ads say fish here. Then last night's NBA Draft lottery,
Oh you want to?
Speaker 2 (20:07):
I mean, we can't say it on the other should
you know what I mean? You know that straight off
the docks.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
That's generally not an NBA conspiracy theorist, but that should is.
I mean a Lakers year after the Lakers get a
suspiciously good player traded to them, that team that trades
the really good player gets the number one pick.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
I mean, but at least our trade for a d
wasn't as janky as the one for a Luk. Yeah,
you gave up a lot, Yeah, we gave up a lot. Yeah,
but it is ironic. It's like you give us a
dynastic like a fucking generational talent in the NBA, and
we will respond with one first first pick for you.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
One number one pick, which, like in retrospect, the only
thing that if you assume that that number one pick
was involved in the trade, it's the only way the
trade now makes sense, right, Like if you're just like, okay,
Luca for Anthony Davis and Cooper Flag, then yeah that
(21:15):
makes sense.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Yeah, but then you're like, oh, yeah, we can work
with that.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Anyways, for non NBA fans probably don't give a shit
about this, but it is very interesting.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Yet, said Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram and Josh Hart. That's right,
Josh Hart. Josh Hart, look at you now, Hey, worked
out for you, buddy.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Shout out to the Knicks and sorry to Celtics fans
and of course Jason Tatum. You really hate to see
that happen, you do.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
There's another headline a lot. There's a few more aids.
Two AIDS have now quit John Fetterman's office because it
seems like it's getting worse and worse.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Now. It really feels like it's a thing where like
people should be like we're just say for safety, people
should be get away from that.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I mean the fact that so much of like the
center left media is openly questioning where he's at, shows
that like the machine is already it's moving against him.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
But just back to the post office because that's not
going to exist pretty soon. Steiner is a member of
the FedEx Board of Directors.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
He knows he gets it right.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
It's so the selection is very you know, questionable, what
would have been very questionable. And then they also announced
his selection without doing the vote publicly like you're supposed to.
They were just like and it's Steiner's a guy, So Steiner,
which makes sense because Trump was threatening to fire everybody
(22:44):
on that board if he didn't get elected the board
of governor. So it's I don't know what this looks.
I guess it's just like the post office no longer exists.
I hadn't realized, but of course it makes sense that
like fed X up, like all the for profit delivery
services have like from day one, been like we just
(23:05):
got to take the post office out there. It's so
frustrating to us that they can that they will just
do what we do but for free, Like this is terrible.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
We need to make people pay for this shit. It's
like one of the few things that we have that's
good in this country is our postal service. Like fucking
hell man, it's and now Trump's in uh Saudi Arabia
now just sundowning and riad in front of Mohammed ben Salmon. Yeah,
just yeah, it's right now. I just want to play
(23:38):
a clip of this. He's he's rambling right now, like
in this speech.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
And we have great partners in the world, but we
have none stronger and no nobody like the gentleman that's
right before me. He's your greatest representative, greatest representative.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
MBS. Yeah, uh, mister fucking disappear. The fucking journalists.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Yeah, they feel like that's a real half assed compliment,
by the way.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Kind of I didn't like him, I'd get out of
here so fast.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Wow, know that, don't you?
Speaker 3 (24:17):
He knows me well, I do. I like him a lot.
I like him too much.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
That's why we give so much. You know, too much?
I like you too much?
Speaker 2 (24:28):
What does that even? Was that a reference to the murder?
And if I didn't like him, I'd get out of
here quickly? No, I think here, yeah, here because I
like this guy. Otherwise, fuck you guys. And like Elon's
behind him in like a k hole completely lost there.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Yeah, that was He's back and it's good they got
back together.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
I'm sure he's he probably also needs to be like
behind MBS. Yeah, ok, yeah, yeah, like he's he's also
he's i think, courting that Gulf State money for you know,
his failing audiences. So she said, can I go with
you on that trip on your money begging trip dead?
Can I come? Yeah? Just can you go on your
own jet though? Please? So yeah, that's everything's happening right now.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
And finally, the last story the book and a new
mission impossible popcorn bucket that requires a two part key
for you to open it.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Fuck yeah, dude, a two part key this one?
Speaker 1 (25:27):
I yeah, So I thought it was like one of
those double like when they want to launch a nuclear weapon,
they have like the two keys that turn at once
like that you have to Unfortunately, this is just a
key that you put together, like a very easy puzzle
for babies, and then you put the key in to
get your popcorn. The popcorn itself looks like it's inside.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Of like a Coleman camping lantern.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yeah yeah, I don't know how this maybe it might
maybe it ties in it's surprisingly unfuckable.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
It's yeah, I mean unless you're you have some kind
of plus sign shaped anatomy where the key hole goes.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
But right right, no, this is not Yeah, yeah, I
mean like metaphorically, maybe key in lock is there, Like,
that's plenty. That's plenty for people to talk about. Fucking
we be to wrap what KiB to lock.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Yeah. Also, I'm more I'm more upset by the actual
amount of popcorn this thing holds. I think it's like
about the capacity of a small popcorn.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Yeah, it's a massive like you know, just so much
plastic around a very small amount of popcorn. Yeah, this
is which, this is bad. This isn't l sorry for unfortunately,
it's for me dog.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Yeah, but I am I I hear this movie is good.
I still haven't watched the last one. I really need
to watch it and then go see sure you haven't,
because I was thinking that I haven't, but I remember that.
I think like for the last six flights I've had,
I've been watching it piecemeal.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Oh no, I haven't watched like I have started the
first like one minute and haven't even been able to
get myself because it just feels so much like one
of those things you see in theaters. I just always
would find myself going to see these in theaters and
just missane.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
It's like sanctified and you're like, I can't kind of,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
It's just like weird to watch a Mission Impossible movie
that like has famous stunts in it, like on your phone.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
But having the second one come out will hopefully push
me when I am going to see Friendship this afternoon.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Oh nice, Well, I'll look forward to that. Taking your kids, yeah, exactly,
they're gonna love it. All right.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
Those are some of the things that are trending on
this Tuesday afternoon. We are back tomorrow with a whole
last episode of the show. Until then, be kind to
each other, be kind to yourselves, get your vaccines while
you still can get your flu shots, don't do nothing

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
