As mild Miles mentioned on yesterday's episode, that was the
last one in in person for for a while. That
one was actually recorded last week and now we are

(03:27):
uh remote, yeah, and it feels a little weird screaming
into a into my empty house, but uh yeah, it's good.
It sounds good. Did you did? Did y'all see uh,
the what you call it? The John Oliver episode from
last night that was the most dystopian content yet It

(03:47):
was still really funny. But he's just sitting in a
white void, an undisclosed location. I just saw that thumbnail
and I was like, oh yeah, okay, that's uh yeah,
you those those writers. It's still a good episode. But
it's like the thumbnail is jarring right. Shout out to
Daniel O'Brien. Is it is it like a webcam? Is

(04:09):
he just like sitting there? Like does he look like
we look at each other's Google hangouts right now? It
looks like it's just like a white void background. It's
like it looks like a broadcast that would happen like
right before. They're like uh, you know, like the helicopters
are about to descend, like take cover, like a very
calm British person on against a void background. It's like, yeah,

(04:33):
it was like prerecorded. It's like if you're seeing this message,
yeah exactly. Just please chick, if you've seen this message,
please relax. Everything's all good. I still associate white void
backgrounds with like eighties TV versions of Heaven. And also

(04:53):
and everyone's wearing a white suit. Well, here we are
in our different bunkers. It's nice. Even everybody's house looks
like honestly, yeah, it's great. You can see the air
events in my roof. Someone's got central air. Wow. And
you look at mine, you're like someone has a curtain
for a door. All right, let's tell the people what

(05:18):
we're talking about today. So we're gonna try and divvy
things up a little bit. So Act one we won't
do too much corona news. Act two will be more
you know, what's happening on the news, what people are
talking about on the news with regressive politics and also
the the pandemic. Uh, we're gonna talk in Act three

(05:42):
about a little bit more diversions and what we're what
we're all doing UH in our respective bunkers to stay
saying yeah yeah, so um. That's gonna be kind of
a new format. Like in Act three, we're gonna talk
about how it is a good week for R E.
M in terms of their streaming numbers. Miles created an

(06:05):
activity UH that I think it's fun. I'm I'm, for one,
going to try UH, and then we're going to talk
about the new method for getting off of cocaine A method. Yeah,
just like just like most effective treatments for anything, It's
only available to a very select few, but if you

(06:26):
can get your hands on it, you will never do
cocaine right. I was brought to us by Fiona Apple.
We're all thrilled to go out and try it ourselves.
But first, Jamie loft is, we like to ask our guests,
what is something from your search history that's revealing about
who you are? Friend? Oh boy, I've been putting a

(06:47):
lot of stuff in online shopping carts and then taking
them out, and I feel like every I encourage like
getting to share your dystopian cart with us. I've been
hearing a lot of dystopian carts. I bought a katana.
Oh Katana not like a legit katana, like a like

(07:10):
a twenty three dollar ka. I think it's like a
costplaying katana. But I just wanted to see how it
felt in my hand. You know, well, I will say,
if you want to know how it feels, you almost
want that real steel in your hands to really feel
the balance of the blade. Oh you okay? As there
as a true blade master. Yeah, as a Japanese person
who's going to pretend to be this the samurai teacher. Yeah,
I think I think you need this, the real steel

(07:31):
in your hands. I'm gonna be I'm gonna be like,
what is that like, old meme, That's like while you
were at parties, I was studying the blade. That's gonna
be like while you were having sex with the love
of your life. I was studying the blade. I mean,
while Isaac is just in the corner crying his eyes
out with a bunch of bruises from your cosplay sword. Yeah,

(07:54):
he just got in the way of my blade. Too
many times? Were you real when you said you got
a saxophone or you want you're thinking about getting a
sax I put that in the cart and then I
took it out of the car. I wanted I want
a beginner's instrument. The student instruments are more affordable than
I thought, so I was like, oh, maybe I'll get
a clarinet, and Isaac was like, I don't want to
hear that, and like, you have to be sensitive to

(08:15):
your partner when you're ordering an annoying instrument. So so
I'm between an alto sacks and a violin. Oh, I
mean I think violin. I think you're gonna Well, didn't
you say you played Obo? Yeah, but it turns out
that's out of my tax braggett. Have you seen reads

(08:37):
and what reads costs these days? Yes? There, Yeah, you
think in the time of Corona, I can afford an
Obo read? Get real. There's something, But I think either one,
whether it's a sax or a violin, the visual of
you playing the ship out of either one I think
will bring joy to many. Whichever it is, I want
to try. I want to try, And then I wanted

(08:58):
to get like a fake has mat suit. I don't
want to get a real one because I'm sure people
need them, but a fake like breaking Bad Halloween costume
has matt suit because I've been doing Jane Fonda exercises
and I want to do one in a has mat suit,
just exact video. It'll probably help you swept for the content,
just for the content. You know, this is this is

(09:19):
really a golden age for content when you think about it. Yeah,
the bar is about to go crashing through the f
I mean Amazon TikTok like everyone's we're all finding our
new content niche for split stuff. Sup producer on a
Josie is now going to be like a traffic reporter

(09:41):
for the Daily Zeitgeist, but exclusively from TikTok. She's gonna
be telling us what the latest trends are, what's happening
on TikTok to the moment, the talk beat, the TikTok
on TikTok. Uh, we're gonna be getting we We found
out about the the Corona channel that the kids are
into right before we started recording, which is kids licking

(10:05):
a toilet seat to you know, uh for the loes. Uh.
But you know that it's not going to get them sick.
It's just if you thought the memes were cool now
before all this, wait till wait, wait about six days
when the memes are gonna we're gonna hit a new
level of people trying to find meaning throughout all of this, Jamie,

(10:26):
what is something you think is underrated? Oh? Underrated is
new life. My niece was born yesterday. I'm really uh yeah,
it was. It was. I mean it is like a
wild story, like just hearing like I mean, obviously people
are still having babies and ship, but just the way

(10:47):
that like they're brought into the hospital is a little
bit different. But my my niece was born. Her name
is Carolina Clark, code named Corona Clark. And uh she
she you weighed seven pounds and eleven ounces, which is
how you know that we're related. She's a straight up Yeah.

(11:08):
I wonder how many people are thinking, like, hey, well,
if you know everything's on pause, hey you can can
we put this pregnancy on pause? Like do we gotta
decorate now? Like it's gonna be pretty rough. Yeah. Healthcare
workers are you know, just don't want to stay home
as much as anybody, and especially ones who aren't you know,
necessary for the for specifically Corona stuff. But I think eventually,

(11:32):
you know, all healthcare workers are probably gonna be called
into help out to all healthcare workers. Game. I know
a couple of people are very pregnant right now and
who are going in for their like last checkups with
their O, B, G, y N. And it's like their
tents outside the hospital. That's got to be a little

(11:53):
bit unnerving. Um, yeah, that's awesome to hear that it
can work out and you can have a seven eleven
babe can have a little seven eleven baby. Every picture
I've seen of her she looks worried, so she can
like read probably genius. What is something you think is overrated? Overrated?

(12:13):
Is uh watching like starting to binge a good TV show?
I've already I mean, this is what day three, I've
already tried to watch two shows that I haven't watched
before that are good, and I've gotten really stressed out
in board, Like I was like, oh, now is the
time to start West World? Now? This is this is
my moment, But it's not. It's for me anyways. It's

(12:36):
not the time for thinking TV, not trying to challenge
myself media wise at this time. And so I I
tried West World and I dropped it after two episodes,
and then I went back and I watched something really
funked up on Netflix and felt way better. I think
like a new thing that would be tight. I was

(12:56):
proposing this to her Majesty is, if you know we're
really like things really start changing, why not fully regress,
put up the Christmas decorations, watch only Christmas holiday films
and just to be like, oh really, Like yeah, let's
just go into a time warp, like if we're gonna
if I'm really gonna throw myself off, like I might
as well just go to the time where I'm like, yo,

(13:18):
let's watch trash Christmas films because there's plenty of those
that I've still not seen, even though I am challenging
myself to try and watch all of them. Yeah, I
mean it's we were thinking, like after one failed episode
of West where we're like, should we bust out the
ranking bass like specials right now? Like are we doing it?
But it will happen. I think the other thing too,

(13:38):
We were talking about it on yesterday's show. But the
VHS archive that's on like the Internet archive, it has
stuff that's ripped from tapes from like the earliest the
sixties up until now. The mainly clustered in the like
the late eighties and nineties when people were really ripping
things off their vhs, like decks. You can just go
back and be like I will watch a three hour

(13:59):
club stir of Rocco's Modern Life from or things like that,
or commercials there's you know, keep yourselves entertained however you
have to. I'm gonna I have like a pile of
vhs is at the house that is just like all
the footage from my childhood of just my mom holding
like a tank sized video recorder screaming at children, being

(14:21):
like so hard. I was like, maybe it's time to
digitize that. Maybe it's time to open those wounds. Yeah,
start making a really cool arthouse film. Yeah, I'm just
sounded a lot like Nicole Buyer by the way there there.
I also like I encourage everyone to be like, you know,
like be creative during this time and stuff, but I do.

(14:41):
It does make me laugh to think about like two
years from now when just like a bunch of shitty
dystopian movies come out at once and you're like, well,
we know what that was. I mean, think of all
the fucking rom com scripts that people are gonna be
fucking combing through this next year, or worse, mumble core.
I'm just like, I if a mumble core movie comes

(15:01):
out about Corona, which it will off flip a table,
which I will. Yeah, I'm actually keeping a one of
those old timy metal trash cans right at my bedside
and right next to me at all times, just in
case it becomes time to panic and I need to
throw it through a window. I recommend that. Yeah, I

(15:22):
get your throwing can. Finally, Jamie, what is a myth?
What's something people think it's true? You know to be false? Hm?
I was struggling with the myth today. Every everything feels
like a myth. Um. I guess that my myth. It
maybe it may be more of a somber myth than
I was planning, But like, here's a myth. The myth
is that people will reach out to you when they're

(15:44):
feeling lonely. They might not like I I've been I
don't know, I've I've been like facetiming with friends over
the weekend, or there's just been people who have just
like FaceTime me out of nowhere and been like, hey
are you are you feeling okay? Are you feeling good?
Are you? And it's just been I don't know, it's
been nice. And I've been calling what like like I

(16:06):
call my parents, which was annoying. But then I called
you aunts and uncles and ship like that, and like
it's it's it's it's been nice. I think that, Like
there's some people that you call and they don't want
to admit, like because they're whatever proud that they're like, hey,
I'm feeling a little lonely, feeling a little isolated. Uh,

(16:26):
wish you hadn't moved across the country. A lot of
those discussions. Um, but it's been it's it's been good.
So I guess don't count on people, especially maybe the
more proudful people in your life. They might not tell
you that they're feeling lonely. Or my favorite is like
when I would call a family member and then they
would be like, Jesus Christ, I'm fine, leave me alone.

(16:52):
I was looking forward to this. That was some of
my relatives. And then they like they were sending text
messages like everybody, chill out, this is gonna be fine.
And then like the next time I talked to them,
like twenty four hours later, they had like made peace
with the fact that our lives were about to change

(17:12):
for a while. So, yeah, I think people are all
going through this at their own rate. But honestly, the
people who are having a good week all these video
chat services. I mean, look at us. I've been on
like a couple of Google hanging outs. I think also
to all your text threads you have a bunch bunch
of people. Turn that into a video conference. You will
be surprised how life affirming it can be to see

(17:34):
everyone's faces. Because if you're fortunate enough to be like
working from home and to have the free time, um,
it's it can be very nourishing. Mm hmm. Alright, guys,
let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.

(17:59):
And we're back, and so that this being the news chunk,
let's just get right into it. Uh what do you guys? Uh? Yeah,
I thought one of the best things I saw was
from Sheila Blair, who was I think she was in

(18:19):
charge of the FED under George W. Bush and into
the Obama administration, and she you know, a lot of
the coverage about you know, the economy in at this time,
like as everything shutting down, has been about the FED
and about the stock market. And she pointed out, like

(18:41):
lowering interest rates to zero doesn't help if businesses can't
pay their loans back and they don't have cash flow.
We need to get help out there, especially to small
businesses and people already losing their jobs. And I just
think that's an important point. Like this is something that
I've kind of felt over and over again really in
the past few months, that there's just this sort of

(19:03):
feedback loop between the mainstream media and Donald Trump specifically,
and just wealthy you know, media elites and the sorts
of people who pay attention to the stock market where
they think they're the only ones whose opinions matter. And
I feel like we're starting to see that get punctured
a little bit as you know, the reality of the

(19:24):
situation breaks through. Oh yeah, I mean you have Mitt
Romney out here proposing possibly giving people one thousand dollars
like right now just to offset things. And it's funny.
It's so many of like the funnier tweets and stuff
I've read over the weekend where things about you know,
just being like, you know, this virus has the government
actually giving people human rights? Now, I'm trying to address

(19:46):
these things because I think, you know, it had to
come to a point where the the rubber met the
road and it was like, are you really going to
expect people to not work and also get these things done,
Like how is that even possible? And you can no
longer blame there people. You can no longer say raw
rab bootstraps. Shit, It's like no, no, no no, there needs
to be tangible assistance for this to work and not

(20:08):
have just a chain reaction that you know, I think
they're not quite prepared for. Yeah, it is like kind
of surprising to see. I mean, not surprising, I guess,
but just like how this has forced the government to
provide some like basic services to two people, like just
like things that people have been asking for forever, Like

(20:30):
in l A there there's been like a proposal to
just get like hand washing stations at homeless encampments for
like ever, ever ever, and they have just started to
roll them out in the last week because it feels
like a possible threat to the you know, the government
don't actually give a ship, but like at least something
is happening. Yeah, I mean, I think it's going to
take a while because on one level, you see that

(20:53):
they've done everything they could to try and stabilize it
from the top down, you know, by slashing interest rates
and things like out in the markets. Still didn't really
respond the way they did, and you know, I think
luckily on the other end, hopefully, like local municipalities. I've seen,
like even in the area, like school districts trying to
set up ways to distribute food for kids who are
like counting on school to get their meals and things

(21:15):
like that. It seems like a lot of them. More uh,
you know, tangible or effective solutions are having to come
from the people on the ground because clearly the federal
government is in total disarray. Um, but I think it's
I hope, I mean, they'll I don't know if we
can talk about what are positives or negatives throughout this
whole thing, but at the very least these sort of
these topics are entering the discussion at least on a

(21:37):
national level. Yeah. I mean, from a historic perspective, it
seems like, you know, the last time that America was
truly open to very progressive policies was like during the
Depression and after World War Two, And we're during World
War two. So I mean, maybe, uh, that's what it

(21:58):
takes to get America, uh, you know, out of its
own ass enough to realize that people need help. Yeah. Well,
Trump is hoping for sort of an easier fixed to
all of this, and that is a magic pills. He's
hopings just gonna make the magic the magic pill. He

(22:19):
doesn't like needles, I'm sure, but I don't needs. Do
you have it? And can you put it into a
flint stone chewable vitamin fun stones kids. I will say
that I haven't laughed at a Trump tweet in a
very long time, but I did laugh at his socialt
testancing that's a pretty good one. A lot of old

(22:44):
man yelling, a lot of old man yelling. Yeah. But
so there's a biotech company in Germany that's working on
a vaccine for the virus, and I feel like we're
hearing that various news stories where people are trying out
vaccines or biotech companies are, you know, trying to make
advances against the virus. But Donald Trump, being who Donald

(23:05):
Trump is, wanted to kind of keep it all for himself. Yeah,
there's I mean again, a vaccine would be tremendously helpful
right now, clearly because it's a pandemic. The effects of
people not being able to work or falling ill are
really significant. And yes, a vaccine would not only be
a game changer, for everyone's health, but would also be

(23:27):
I guess, very profitable if you're a greedy, fucking sociopath
like Donald Trump is, who is looking at this possible
vaccine as like a straight up money maker. Um. So,
this company in Germany, you know they've been they've been
pretty successful. They were hoping to start like trials on
people in this summer UM And at a certain point
we found out that Donald Trump was offering them a

(23:50):
lot of money, like many funds to lure the company
to the United States and to continue to operate in
the United States and keep the vaccine just so would
only be available to the United States and then possibly
if they own it then they can start licensing it
to other people. I don't know, but this was purely
looked at as a business opportunity from the president um

(24:11):
to the point where like Germany was in a bidding
war with the United States to be like no police stay.
In the end, they clearly were like now this like
we're not gonna leave. Um. And the government of Germany
was like, I don't know what the funk y'all thought
you were trying to do. Rick Grinnell, who's like the
like ambassador to Germany or former ambassador was like, no,
that's all just a joke that never happened. But then

(24:32):
when it was confirmed, he was like, Okay, maybe that
I'm I'll take Yeah. I feel like this is another
place where we're seeing the like market based economy and
government and media apparatus that has run America for so
long just being kind of ill equipped to even like
just the paradigm in general, and like people's brains are

(24:55):
just incapable of sort of get it, wrapping their minds
or onund the idea of a world where it's not
just like oh, we gotta get we gotta get that
and sell it and you know, beat the competition, and
it's like, no, we're all trying not to have a
species wide like you know, devastation. It would be cute

(25:16):
if it weren't so fucked up, you know, like the
fact that like our president is out here like still
thinking that we're in charge, like so clearly not the
case at this point, and just I don't know or
even that the stakes are like low enough that you
can play like greedy, greedy entrepreneur. You can't millions of lives.

(25:40):
But again, I think that shows the mindset it's the
problem is actually completely abstract to him, um, and it's
much more serious. But yet here he goes trying to
bribe researchers in other countries to be like give it
all to us and then we can sell it. It's
it's really I mean, seeing anything related to this like

(26:01):
operating on a like a transactional level, is very very alarming. Yeah. Yeah, well,
the shenanigans I think of, like all of this, it's
brought out the best and the worst in people. And
this so okay, there was like obviously we like last
week and the weeks before, there was clearly a rush

(26:22):
on things like masks and cleaning supplies and disinfectant and sanitizers. Also, guys,
soap is perfectly great. It's actually very effective because it
breaks up the oils in which the virus lives in.
So also consider using hand soap to just as good
soapy water fantastic um hand lotion. Use that, yeah, your head,

(26:43):
because people's hands are getting dried out. Mind started cracking
a little bit. Started moisturizing much better. Oh okay, that
about moisturizer. What did you say someone told Joe Biden
about moisturizer. Oh boy, no, it's it's it's too late
for Joe. I'm just saying Bernie came in moisturized and

(27:04):
you know he was just using Irish spring. Oh yeah,
cutting it with a knife and rubbing it on himself.
Um so yeah, So a lot of people have been,
you know, buying up these products. There were people obviously
trying to price gouge on Amazon and eBay, and so
this story came out about this guy and his brother
in Kentucky who like went on a multi state mission

(27:26):
to buy up any purel or masks or other things.
They thought we're going to be profitable, like in a
resale capacity. And not only did they make the mistake
of like talking out loud to the New York Times
about this, but one of the brothers actually showed his
fucking human being face on fucking television wearing a shirt
that said family man, Family Business as he gave a

(27:48):
news crew a tour of his garage where he had
an estimated seventeen thousand bottles of hand sanitizer plus other goods.
So in this article, he's like, yeah, man, it's quote.
It's been a huge amount of plash from being in
a situation where what I've got coming and going could
potentially put my family in a really good place financially
to what the heck am I going to do with

(28:10):
all this? Was being like, I my plan didn't quite
work out. Um, And then he was telling them he
actually felt maybe like he was doing a real you know,
Paul Revere of purel public service type vibe where he said, quote,
there's a crushing, overwhelming demand in certain cities right now.
The dollar General in the middle of nowhere outside Lexington,

(28:31):
Kentucky doesn't have that. I honestly feel like it's a
public service and I'm being paid for my public service
and his public services. How much is he charging people?
He's given it to him at a discount of rate?
Uh No, he was putting the prices so high that
eBay and Amazon Perma fucked him off the platform for
trying to price gouge. Not only that, I'm pretty sure

(28:53):
the state Attorney of Kentucky basically threatened him and the
brother with illegal action if they attempted to downloade any
of this ship it. Um. Yeah, so now they have
to donate everything. Yeah, well that's good. I look forward
to the scam God this episode on that. Yeah, right,
I mean, it's such a short sighted scam. But again,

(29:13):
it's like the it's the reflex of how a lot
of Americans think, because again, we're like acting out. I
keep saying this, we're acting out the same ship we
see at a higher level, which is like, oh, yeah,
someone's in pain, how can I profit up this? Oh
someone's hurt? How can I profit off of this? That's like,
just because that's the example, we see our our institutions

(29:34):
and the companies that supposedly take care of us see
us as Oh, you've got something wrong with you. How
am I going to extract every fucking dollar out of you?
And it's interesting to see the this echo effect in
real life. And this guy now he's saying, like, you know,
this whole thing has been a lot of like a disaster.
He's been getting a lot of cell phone calls, people
who can picked up messages, people like sending him pizzas,

(29:56):
which is actually kind of sucked up because the people
who are in a delivery capacity are a pretty intense
risk um. But he was saying, it was never my
intention to keep necessary medical supplies out of the hands
of people who needed them. That's not who I am
as a person, And all I've been told for the
last forty eight hours is how much of that person?
I am, yeah, fact, okay, Jesus well, I'm glad that

(30:19):
he was thwarted at least that's good. What I mean,
Kentucky seems to be having a rough time, rough go
of it during this just just adapting in general, because
there's this this duo, and then there's also the guy
who tested positive and then was like, you can't quarantine me.

(30:40):
I have my rights, and so they had to like
put an armed guard outside his house to keep him
from leaving and in people, Um, I mean, yeah, that's
I mean, from what I've heard, I feel like, uh,
you know, Andy Basher, who is the governor, had a
decent response. I don't know how true that is. I mean,
I think every state sort of dealing with everything in
their own ways. But there's definitely again and I'm I'm

(31:03):
sure this will be a thing we continue continue to
talk about as all kinds of news come up. But
like we're starting, this is a really interesting examination of
the psyche of Americans also generationally, uh socially at every level.
You see like the attitude too of like a lot
of older people who have the mentality of like, America's
the greatest country and nothing bad will ever happen, having

(31:26):
to sort of be confronted with the fact that, yeah, no, this,
this can very well upend that uh you know, self
held identity that that everyone thought. Yeah, alright, Well, what
one phrase that I'm hearing people use a lot now,
is uh draconian? Are you guys hearing that in a

(31:46):
lot of places? Yeah? A lot of dragon hate. Yeah,
dragon hete. I was assuming, you know, this heads that
like the derivation was something to do with Draco malfoy,
but that's actually not the case. It's yeah so Draco, Yeah,
I know, I think Draco Malfoy might come from this.

(32:09):
Believe it or not. Wow. J K. Rowling did a
cute little turn of phrase, and being a transfob, it's
also truly does it all, can't have it all? Draco
gets a really bad rap. He was the first legislator
in ancient Greece to make laws, and like people are like,

(32:32):
fuck your laws, you don't don't know that rights. Yeah so,
I mean prior to that it had been blood feuds
and like, you know, whoever was in charge could decide
whatever they wanted. To do to people. Um, and there
were these random people who were arbitrarily able to enforce

(32:54):
the laws because they like quote unquote knew the code.
But you uh that that wasn't so that he was
the first person to write them down. Uh. Now, granted,
when we look back at them, they're not great laws.
Like you they were had capital punishment for like stealing
a cabbage. But they also made big progress in terms

(33:18):
of just writing them down in the first place, because
everything up to that point was just whoever you know,
had the power and the weapon. At that point, I
got to decide what the law was. And also, uh,
you know, it made distinctions like between manslaughter and murder.
That was the first time those were viewed as separate. Um.

(33:39):
So very early stages law stuff. But uh, you know,
I think because people were like pissed that anyone was
writing laws down in the first place, we were like,
this is draconian, terrible. Yeah, I hate to be an

(34:00):
actually person, But wasn't the Code of Hammurabi one of
the earliest written down laws in history? Yeah? Might this
might be like Western bias where this is one of
the first just you know, I just want to hold
it down for hamarabie. You know, yeah, you know, you're
we're living in a weird time because this is normally
something that you would hear from like a guy at

(34:22):
a party. It's like, actually, um, there's uh, there's a
lot of baggage attached to the terms that you might
not actually realize and then be like, oh, sorry, I'm
gonna go get another miller. I know this is this
is when that guy leaves. I wasn't able to go

(34:44):
to parties and just make people run away from me
with really boring his historic derivations of words, so and
I would always have to shoehorn in that I knew
what the code of hammurabi. You're like, but yeah, you
guys are like wing men each other, Like dude, no,
you guys. So you guys both come off looking real
smartction Postmortar heard the conversation. He's like, oh, hey, I

(35:09):
couldn't help but over here that you were talking. And
then at the end of the night, at the end
of the night, we meet up outside the party and
we compare notes. Are like, all right, so how do
we do how many numbers you get to? Like I
had three women told me to never fucking talk to
that it's info from the same guy that is, like, yeah,
only watched season one of Mr. Robot. It gets really

(35:31):
shitty after that. So there's this Paula. It's basically one
guy though. Oh boy, well, I guess I'm going to
spike the next story about how season to a Mr.
Robot really drops off. Well, and you really expect me
to watch something and then tell me it's a dream

(35:52):
halfway through the season? Honey, come on on. Oh you're
gonna hate that one episode that one season A fucking
Dexter Mike God. Oh wow. I hope things don't get
so bad that I have to watch Dexter. That would
be too bad, truly apocalyptic. Al Right, guys, let's take

(36:13):
another break and we'll be back. And we're back, and
let's let's talk pop culture. Let's talk things that aren't
the news. Yeah, let's talk r e M. One of

(36:37):
my favorite bands grown up that nobody really listens to anymore. Hey, what,
so it's the end of the World. I think a
lot of people know. That's maybe that's the only r
M song. It's the end of the world, you know,
and ives and like they did, everybody hurts, right, yeah, yeah,

(36:57):
and wow, look at you. That song came out in
eighties seven, I believe, um and right, like I think
at its heyday when it was on the charts, like
in the eighties, it peaked at number sixty nine on
Billboards Hot one. Currently, um on the iTunes charts, it's
number forty three, and that's twenty nine spots higher than

(37:19):
it was on Friday. So this this song is climbing
the effing charts right now. This is like the dystopian
version of when like Bohemian Rhapsody got really popular again
when Wayne's World came out right right right, yeah, But
I mean they're both good songs. I think I think
you need that. They need to both be songs that
that hold up. Uh yeah yeah. And then I feel

(37:41):
like Bohemian Rhapsody came back with the movie Bohemian Rhapsody,
which I don't know now. I was at a Waynes
World movie. Yeah, that's a Waynes word. It's about the
making of Wayne's World. It's the Wayne's World joint now,
but I feel like it's not now people are like
that songs sucks, and like I think it's Queen's most

(38:01):
popular song, Whereas when it first came back, it was like,
oh yeah, here's a unheralded gem uh from the early
days of Queen. Now people are like, it's the Ice
Ice Baby of the seventies. Um um yeah. I think
when you compare it to other songs that are coming

(38:23):
out right now, it's getting more downloads than Billie Eilish's
Bad Guy, Lizzo as good as Hell and uh Nile
Horn is that how you say his name? From One Direction? Anyway?
That guy, the one Direction guy? He hasn't he put
out a new album last Friday and this song from
RM still just crushing all them ouch um yeah, but

(38:46):
RM are great musicians. Get those royalty fellas. Yeah alright, guys,
for the rest of the show, let's just talk about
our favorite RM albums. You go first, what's number that?
Are you talking R E M to me? Yeah? There
is a and I was a huge R E M
fan and even I couldn't listen to that, so oh boy,

(39:10):
I like both of those guys too. Uh. One good
episode where they had the guys from Vampire Weekend on
them to talk about their album. But uh yeah, anyways,
check out Automatic for the People if you want to
get into R E M and New Adventures in the
h Hell. Yeah, I literally just got a text from

(39:31):
Her Majesty from the other room, who says you were
right the first time. Nile Horren like horror and then
hyphen u. N her Majesty is shadow producing from the
other room. That's awesome. Hi, her Majesty, thank you. This

(39:53):
like I hed phones on, Oh I can just texting me,
I can hear you. Motherfucker there. Nile is a sweet boy.
I love him. Be nice. Okay, okay, all right, I
don't know who Nile is. Maybe you, guys, I'm a
nihilist this out. Do you need to take a quick
break to kind of work this out? No, no, I'll

(40:15):
take a quick break for her to smash my podcasting equipment.
Uh so, Miles, you and her speaking of her Majesty,
You guys, uh, we're we're doing some like old eighteen
hundred style parlor games. Yeah, yeah, I mean, I think
you know, it's really important to find ways to entertain

(40:36):
yourselves right now, especially because it's very stressful. Trust me,
I understand the stress that everyone's under, from financial stress
to social stress, to existential stress. It's all there, and
I think it's really important a that we you know,
try and be as adaptable as possible and have our

(40:58):
hearts as open as possible. Just to reambled all of this.
I think everyone needs to be as helpful to each
other right now more than ever. And if you're able
to help other people, please do in any way you can,
because I think right now when our own institutions are
failing to maybe provide those things, and at a certain extent,
we may have to rely on each other. So I

(41:18):
just want to begin with, please open your heart's wallets
whatever you can to be, you know, to absorb this
shock with everyone as best as possible. Um. And I
think it's really also important that we, like make the
best time of our time together. If we are hold
up with people, you might be hold up with people
you like, You might be hold up with people that
you don't like. Um, but let's try and make the

(41:38):
best of that the other. Over the weekend, uh, I
got tired of watching things on TV and cooking, So
Her Majesty and I were just like, okay, let's go
back to basics. I was like, I have not drawn
something in ages because A I'm a terrible illustrator and
I don't like to engage in things I'm not good at,
but for the sake of fun, I was like, you
know what, let's let's revisit some of these artistic skills

(41:59):
I had, and we came up with It could be
a game that already exists. I don't know, but I
was just like, I had one legal pad and a pen.
I said, okay, sixty second portrait challenge she I would
pose for her. She would have sixty seconds to draw
my likeness on the page. Then I would get the pad.
I would not see what she drew. I would have
sixty seconds to draw her. The results may shock your

(42:22):
relationship to their core to the point that they dissolve
her majesty is actually decent with the pen uh in
forms and shapes I have. I don't even know what
you could describe my drawing portrait of her as except
for mildly offensive. There I would say that maybe some
pupils to her eyes would have been helpful if I

(42:43):
just giving some tips. I ran out of time. Something
in her eye holes. Besides nothing in her eye holes,
something her eye holes. Yeah, I tried the You know,
I'll post it to my story so people can see
how awful of an illustrator I am, But yeah, I

(43:03):
think games like that are just really funny because honestly,
try it with anybody. You'll be if if you're really good,
you'll be impressed, you'll see someone has art skills, or
you'll be you'll just have a good old laugh. Uh.
And please hit us up with any games, low fi,
low technology games, activities you have to sort of engage yourself. Yeah,
We've been finding old funny exercise videos because I just

(43:26):
feel I get so stir crazy when I can't go
on walks and stuff like that. So Jane Fonda's got
your damn back. She's on there. It's the horny Ist
video and in American history. Really Yeah, my whole body hurts.
I've been doing it for three days now, what what? No,
but bring it back to the horny nous. What's horny
about it? It's like it's really horny. It's her two.

(43:49):
She's wearing this skimpy outfit and like she's just like
it's like an and stretch and then like she's like
pulsing her hips the whole time. She's like making a
humping motion when the exercise doesn't even call for it,
she just all it's it's electric all right, and so
some news that isn't as depressing as all the other

(44:13):
news right now is that we have a we do
have a medical breakthrough in the realm of getting you
less addicted to cocaine. And it comes from Dr Fiona Apple.
She has a lengthy profile in The New Yorker. Uh
that is a good read. Uh. We we all have

(44:36):
time now, so check it out. But really early on
we get this anecdote about how partying hard with Quentin
Tarantino and Paul Thomas Anderson got her to quit doing cocaine. Yeah,
that is though, that is a very interesting one. So
she used to date Paul Thomas Anderson and actually reveals
like that a very tumultus, like like a weird relationship.

(45:00):
He was kind of emotionally abusive and she was like
drinking a lot. He partied hard. Listen to her music
from that time, it's it's all there baby, Yeah, You're like,
oh okay, Paul um. So because of that, you know,
he's he's a director quinz or a director. They that
means they do coke. I guess. There's this one line

(45:21):
that is just very very talent from the New York
It says she had quit cocaine years earlier after spending
quote one excruciating night end quote at Quentin Tarantino's house
listening to him and Anderson Paul Thomas Anderson Bragg. This
is from her quote, Every addict should just get locked
in a private movie theater with q T and p

(45:42):
T A on coke and they'll never want to do
it again. And quote, I mean it's just because they're
like turned up to an eleven there. It's probably sucking insufferable.
Oh god. Yeah. And for people with such like really
strong opinions on film and visual aesthetics and things like that,
I can only imagine being a bite. Let's probably like
watching two furbies talk where like I don't know what

(46:04):
they're doing and I know I don't want to be
here and it's freaking me the funk out, and I
don't know how to turn them off. There is no
clear off switch and the doors are locked and I
I feel unsafe. Yeah. No, Fiana Apple is the fucking best.
I'm so excited. I hope she released his new music early, uh,
for for all us quarantine heads that need it. She's

(46:26):
so amazing. I think that album. I think they're the
pieces talking about an album that's like in process and
might be it's about to come out. She said it's done,
so I'm like, I have fingers crossed. She's she There
was a lot of good press around her when Hustlers
came out, too, because j Lo does that amazing pole

(46:47):
dance to criminal at the beginning movie, and she like
she contacted, uh someone at Vulture, like she just emailed
someone was just like, hey, do you want to talk
to me? And then like there was another great prol fault.
She just seems great. She's just hanging out. She's she's
been she's been quarantined. Yeah, she's It seems like she's

(47:09):
artist who made her art like the center of her life,
which you know, and she keeps making really good ship.
This is actually somewhat reassuring to me too, because you know,
like any person who was a teenager in the nineties
I liked the movies of Quentin Tarantino and Paul Thomas Anderson,
or at least any male who was a teenager at

(47:32):
that time, I feel like, yeah, and they when whenever
I would like see them interviewed or like read a
feature about where a journalist like spent significant time with them,
they were just these like insufferable and like just kind
of unidentifiable as human beings. Like the way they behaved

(47:54):
was just like so strange and over stimulated. And I
I think that's actually a word from one of the
profiles that I read of Paul Thomas Anderson. That's a
nice way of saying on coke. Yeah, Like I never
I was like, yeah, I was always like, wait are
they are they? Like do they have like some is

(48:15):
that like what you need to be like a great director,
You just have this like natural reservoir of energy or something.
And it turns out now they were just on cocaine.
Like you would have thought what I would describe as
insufferable enthusiasm they suffer from. It's quite astonishing. Oh yeah,
I mean Paul Thomas Anderson, Local Valley scumbred. So yeah, yeah, yeah,

(48:41):
I'm like whatever is what whatever the other thing in
that profile is. And I didn't realize that she had
dated Louis c. K Oh. Yes, I've always blocked that out,
but that is true. Yeah, it's I mean read the
whole piece. There's all there's a lot, a lot, a
lot of stuff in there that's a really interesting read

(49:01):
but she yeah, she like at first expected him to
like do some trenchant like self evaluation and come out
with really interesting material following his outing as a as
a creep and a sexual predator. And then you know,
she talks about her coming to the realization that that

(49:23):
wasn't happening. Uh, and yeah, don't happen. Yeah, that will
happen finally. Uh. Just in terms of reporting on what
people are doing to kind of pass the time, I
don't know if do we do we want to ask
z Gang to to reach out, let us know any

(49:44):
any other parlor games they're doing. Uh. I did want
to talk about Arnold Schwarzenegger, who seems to be just
sitting at a small table feeding eating carrots with his
two so much. Yeah, he's with a only named Whiskey
and a donkey named Lulu. He's wearing a Terminator T shirt.

(50:06):
He's in his little kitchen and he's just being like,
don't go out, It's okay, everything fine, don't go outside.
You have it has to be seen to be bullied.
It's so good. Cut to five days from now and
he's spit roasting that. He's like, yeah, I was just
fattening them up for the slaughter, Lulu, you shouldn't have

(50:28):
bucked me off that one time. I have one more
thing about just a quick mensa x oh that this
is our this is our collab of the day as
mensa X coronavirus. Okay. I love to love to hear
about those collabs. So they've been they've been dunking on
me like extra hard. I've been getting a lot of

(50:48):
mean emails from them the past week, since the since
your famous write ups boom uh, so I've been I've
been getting a lot of hate mail from them. But
in dependently of that um there has there's like they
have their regional gatherings and one was supposed to happen
in Las Vegas. So this is like a couple of
thousand people and they refused to cancel it. Um yeah,

(51:14):
like they they were sending out emails saying, let's see quote.
My gut tells me that we will provide food, drink,
lots of drink. They'll be entertainment options, parentheses, open mic,
and and speakers who are still willing to do their
thing with a predictably small audience. This is a choice

(51:35):
to attend or not attend. But I want everyone to
know who's coming to town, that you will not be
left hanging. So like the fucking Genius Club is like, actually,
let's gather in numbers of hundreds because you know you're immune.
I'm actually smart enough to know. I'm actually smart enough
to know which expert opinions to completely ignore. It's a

(51:58):
rare gift. There's a aerographed the last thing. I mean,
I just think it's it did end up like having
to get shut down, but just so beautifully poetic that
they were the last you see. How much like people's
egos are also involved in this, like the idea like
no one wants to I think a lot of people
are looking at this the wrong way, which is like, oh,
I'm not. I am is scared of know corons, you know,

(52:19):
like I'm not going to get the flu or whatever,
rather than no, I'm I need to actually stay away
to minimize anybody interacting and spreading infection. It's not because
you are weak and like a lot of people take that.
I've noticed this with a lot of older people who
are like I'm gonna be fine. It's not that it's
gonna hurt me. It's like no, no no, no, you're missing
the point here, like you actually need to stay inside,

(52:40):
not because I look at you as a weak person,
even though secretly low key I do. It's not about that.
It's mostly about the fact that you have to minimize
your risk of exposure and spread. Uh. And I've had
a really interesting time speaking to all kinds of family
members about the reasons why. I understand it was way
tougher back an ex country that you came here from.

(53:02):
But that's not what this is. It's not a challenge
of who's been through more to challenge about can we
put our you know, can we put our neighbor's safety
and the community safety as a priority and restrict our movement.
That's the thing that the women who hosts Night Call
we're talking about that Moon I think Moon Juice is

(53:22):
the company that like charges us for a small thing
of almond milk. But they they were releasing or is
sending out mass emails or they were like, just you know,
we are lucky enough to be people who are in
control of our own immunity, and can you know, be

(53:45):
like just basically or our own immune systems basically you know,
the mensa version of mindfulness essentially where they just believe
themselves to be immune and it's just yeah, it's very
counterproductive to community spread. There was an intensely stupid RYA

(54:07):
announcement as well, Riya being the like whatever, we're like
c list celebrities really break down what I mean. I
don't know if RYA is in a lot of listeners cities,
but like, how do you explain I've never like RYA
is like you, RYA's basically hinge for people with a
publicist essentially, so like it's almost like trying to be

(54:29):
like the krem della crap of the city, you know,
like oh yeah, like I work in this industry, you
need other people to co sign for you to get in,
Like it's meant to be like really exclusive, and like
many people in l A will bitch about how they
couldn't get on RYA or whatever, like I even heard
a recommendation and like whatever. So it's it's already that's
the mentality of of RYA. My my, yeah, it's or

(54:51):
it's like elitist by design. But there was I'm trying
to look for the official like because everyone, I mean,
I've gotten a like of it. Nineteen message from Forever
twenty one being like we swear we'll clean the dress
antient rooms this time have written like a Ghana from
seven eleven, being like we will never close uh. And
but the ryo one I saw people posting was just like, hey,

(55:16):
we've shut down all the profiles of people over a
certain age. Uh oh, I have it right here? Do
you want me to read it? Yes? Please? The ending
is gorgeous, dear members. As you know, Rya is a
global community with members in each corner of the world.

It's literally just a text that every single one of
Kristen Stewart's friends got. Like it's just so it's fine.

(56:20):
I mean also like yeah, like it sounds like a
bit that will eventually be on like SNL like the
game of the sketches to get more and more wildly
specific to one percent or lifestyle stuff. It's like avoid
hot tubs, Swedish saunas and like infrared bats. It's like, yeah,
do not go to the you know anyway, Timothy Shalam
has been seemed coughing. Maybe don't hang out with him. Yeah,

(56:42):
even for Cloud, I mean we have we have managed
to ignore the big story of yesterday as it relates
to coronavirus, and that is the ELBA stringer. Yeah, uh
shout and his wife who I didn't know if it
was his wife or his daughter he got married? Oh shot,

(57:05):
don't you love that's some riot shit. I mean I
hope that he's doing Okay, that's um super producer on
his knees hall pass so yeah, to keep him in
good health. That definitely had reverberations through Daily Zageist production
when indru Sellbook was you know came down with COVID nineteen.
Yeah you do hate? Do you hate to hear it?

(57:30):
It's my past used to be Scarlett Johansson. Well that
was Actually this is pre like cancelation, even pre her majesty.
I haven't even discussed what my past. I don't think.
I don't. I think Lola Bunny now is the one
one person who has my heart. Oh that's fucked up.

(57:54):
I think mine is still Will Poulter? Wow, yeah that
I thought that crushed is going to die, but it
is a fire that will not be extinguished. Yeah, I don't.
It's I remember you saying this, and you know I
get it, even though he looks like what's his face
from toy Story? Yeah? Oh yeah, but I shouldn't slander him.

(58:16):
I believe he's also an Arsenal fan. So shout out
to Will Palter. Yes, yes, oh he is. You know this. Yeah,
I don't know what it means, but I know it
is true. Wait, you you've read up enough about him
to even passively gain this knowledge. Do you think about
Will Palter? And then three weeks ago, Isaac was sitting
next to him at a bar and was, just like
we I found out that Will Palter is actually too

(58:37):

of tweets that I like a couple, this one was

(01:00:24):
pretty funny over the weekend. It's from Rachel McCartney at
Rachel m Comedy September. The pandemic is over, but nothing
will ever be the same. The virus riped out how
f our parents and we had to say goodbye over Skype.
But today groups are allowed to gather again and stand
up comedy returns. The first comedian takes the mic, so

(01:00:44):
dating has been hard. Um, and a few more. Another
one is from uh uh, where she and Alyssa Limp
Paris form guests at Alissa Limp. I picked a hell
of a time to have not learned how to cook
for the past twenty nine years. Um. And then the

(01:01:07):
last one. We didn't really talk about the debate because
we are trying times. We'll get to debate covers in
a second. But from Jamie Loftus, you tweeted something very
funny that I loved. There was a moment on the
on the debate stage um where there was a lot
of Bernie was cornering Joe Biden on a few things.
One was sort of like, oh, so you never supported
cuts to Medicaid and Social Security. He's like, oh no,

(01:01:28):
And the way Bernie like scoffed at him, it looked
like two fourteen year olds having to fight, like, oh
you never said that. Okay, guys, go to the YouTube
right fucking now and stars Joe Biden medicare cuts. The
ship's right there. You're gonna take an l Joe. But
I don't know how many people were actually watching the
debate the other day. The other moment was talking about
super PACs, where Bernie was saying, look, Joe, you've got

(01:01:50):
some super PACs. Going Joe Biden to Bernie, He's like,
oh yeah, well you've got like nine super PACs. Uh,
And he was like no, I don't. And then this
this sweet from Jamie. She tweeted here the here, here
the Bernies nine super packs. Biden is talking about Asterisk
takes off top reveals nine thick nipples, dripping pennies. Thank

(01:02:12):
you for the signal boost. I honestly I just wanted
I would I would buy that as a poster. Hell yeah,
I think I found I think I found a tweet.
It's more of an idea than a tweet, but I
have found a lot of comfort and cursed Caroline Callaway
content the past couple of days. She's in a She's

(01:02:36):
in a twitter feud with roxand Gay. I don't know why,
but I'm just falling. It's just something to do is
watch Caroline Callaway and Rock sand Gay fight with each
other about From what I can tell, literally nothing. Um
So I recommend going over to either of their profiles.
They're both way to online. Uh in times of crisis

(01:02:58):
and uh it's it's very under dating. Uh. Some tweets
I've been enjoying Miss united Face at Miss united Face
tweeted the TikTok of christ and Chenawick like going around
cleaning her house for the camera in a very like
fun musical way on TikTok, and he tweeted, we need

(01:03:21):
a rescue mission for all the personal assistants trapped in
quarantine with their celebrity clients to film their coronavirus content,
which is a real a real bummer um. And then
Graham Clark tweeted a picture that Eminem put out there

(01:03:43):
of himself in like a black leather jacket with a
black T shirt overlooking New York City and looking really tough,
and he tweeted this fall in NBC Martial Law. It
really it really looks like a Law and Order wait
instead of Marshall Mathers. Yeah, oh my god. Yeah. It's

(01:04:07):
good content, and we need content at this time. Throwing
a content. I want everyone to just keep, you know,
keep a soft spot in your heart. Whenever you see
a comedian going live on Instagram, they're really they're really
going through it. It could be a lot of comedians
going live on Instagram. And here's the thing, most of
