whole like thing? Because he said, like, Marilyn Manson, come around,
I'll kick your ass in. And Marilyn Manson is like,
I'll fuck you up if I see you. WHOA really yeah,
all I'm into his nineties and like early two thousand's
trash beefs. But I remember that was like a moment
where like, oh, Marilyn Manson didn't like that line. Yeah,
A lot of people remember Tupac Biggie, but that was

(04:35):
the one that I feel like really defined a generation.
Um what it? What was that band? Who was Uh,
New Radicals, the New Radical course, How could I forget
that they were the ones? Uh? Stephen, how are you doing? Where?
Where are you? I am in my girlfriend's closet because

(04:58):
she's in a meeting. Well part of the country, Poland, Oregon,
Land of Lincoln. God, I think that's a bit different,
but I like that. So if you're in the closet,
does that mean there's like a sort of room hierarchy
where podcast like means closet work means I get the
house right where the revenues coming from the real estate

(05:26):
based on this rev share, My man, you're gonna have
to record in the closet tonight. Um, all right, Stephen,
we're gonna get to know you a little bit better
in a moment. First, we're gonna tell our listeners a
few of the things we're talking about today. We're gonna
talk about the Revelution, the Revelution, my favorite lotion, the

(05:48):
revelation that Jane Roe was paid to be anti choice
for much of her life. Uh. We're gonna talk about
Georgia and why they need to change some laws down there.
Mike Pompello just being all around cool boss. Why we
should ignore Donald Trump, Yeah, it's been one year since

(06:10):
the finale of Game of Thrones, so we're just gonna
take a look back memory. We all know, we're all
together hating that things. That's what we cared about. Oh
I wasn't there, by the way, but only in my mind. Yeah,

(06:35):
we're gonna talk about Scoop all of that and plenty moore.
But first, Stephen, what is something from your search history
that is revealing about who you are? I recently searched
sky Rizzy lyrics, um the yeah, the drug, the drug,
and I wanted I wanted to know what the lyrics

(06:56):
of the sky Rizzy theme song were because they're fun.
The thing is everything? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it's when
when you said that, I was like, that was always
when I first saw that commercial, I like, that's such
a interesting pharmaceutical name because it does sound like a
SoundCloud rapper like sky That's what you were saying, Yeah, lyrics,

(07:22):
and I'm like, I know that like this bit. I
thought it too, man, the drug, Come on baby, what
are the sky Rizzy things? But yeah, that song is
kind of like what what artists are they ripping off?
It reminds me of like those San Diego tourist commercials.
Um So that's what I was wondering because I thought
like they might just be some royalty free song or something.

(07:44):
But then I was hearing it on the TV and
it's like, uh, nothing in me go hand in hand,
nothing on my skin, that's my new plan. I was like, Oh,
this is specifically for or just very uh just it
happened coincidentally happened to be a perfect fit. You just
gotta checking about clear skin. But that, yeah, that it

(08:10):
sounds like kind of like a Matt and Cam rip
off or something too inspired by Matt and Kim. You know,
I just want to always want to try and find
the genesis of all of our pharmaceutical ad commercials music.
I wonder if Matt and Kim, like that's what they're
doing for bank these days, you know, the like there
are certain musicians who go into Barry Manilow wrote a

(08:31):
bunch of the eighties jingles. Uh, they might be checking right,
a bunch of the Disney TV show, like annoying earworm
theme songs, Mark Mother's ba energy. I feel like it
wasn't He's He's like the best example and probably like
the coolest example of that. What commercials, did Mother's Body.

(08:52):
He did a bunch of commercial work. I think that
like before he got into like the Rugrats zone and
like before he started scoring every kid show, he did
commercial work to show that he could like hack it
in the in the non divo world, I can I
can crack that whip commercial. Push a T wrote the
I'm Loving It he did with Justin Timberlake. Yeah wait

(09:15):
for yeah, yeah, still got it. Messing with the music scholars. Now,
that's so wild. Yeah, that's like a song between the
two of them. Uh yeah, but yeah, he's like because
Steve stout Right, that's this guy. He always he's like

(09:38):
this guy who has always been like the connecting point
between business and hip hop. And that's like one is
Steve stout things like people don't know me, like, but
I'm the person who put like that's a that's from
hip hop. He's always like kind of picking himself up
over that. I'm still mad about mac Tonight. I just
had to say it's hours for me. Everyone was teasing

(09:59):
me there, Christ you have a Gucci man, was like
it was it was funny, But I did more. I
did more research into mac Tonight and it's so bad.
It's they stole him, they stole them ac Tonight. Did
you go on the record saying it was a banger? No?
I was just like mack Tonight, we got to bring

(10:19):
him back. He rocks. And then was like mac Tonight
is a symbol of the alright, And I just didn't know.
I didn't know. By the way, also, I was wrong.
The Threepenny Opera was not by who did I say, Shakespeare?
It was a It's Breck told brectu that egg on

(10:42):
your face? Anything by Shakespeare by Shakespeare? Um side note,
h back to your a k A Stephen about new
young radicals. The thing that happened with Marilyn Manson, this
is a whote he said. I'm not really mad, he
said he kicked my ass. I just don't want to

(11:03):
be used in the same sentence with Courtney Love. I'll
crack his skull open if I see him was his
full line. And because the lyric was saying, like fashion
shoots with Beck and Hanson, Courtney Love and Marilyn Mansla,
blah blah blah. But the the the guy who wrote
the song was like, I was curious if the media
would just focus on those celebrities I called up because
the part preceding that is health insurance rip off, lying

(11:24):
f d A, big bankers buying fake computer crashes, dining
cloning while they're multiplying. Was like, I had this, like
other thing to say about bigger issues, but I thought
the media probably just focused on me talking about Hanson
and Courtney. Look, and Ron's not gonna be like I'll
kick his. Hugh Man is like, hey, when I see you, motherfucker,
it's totally What is something you think is underrated? Stephen Diners,

(11:51):
drive ins and dives Triple D. I mean we love it,
Triple D. I still hear a lot of flak. My
favorite thing recently is me my girlfriend will be watching
it and we'll play a game where guy will be like,
take a bite of a burger and he'll be like,
shut the front door, slit my throat, kill me, send
me out to see what a great burger. And it's like, oh,

(12:13):
you like that, And then like a different segment, he'll
take a bite of a burger and he'll be like, ah,
you could really taste all the flavors and the texture
on that first bite is really something else. And look
at the dripping and it's like, oh he hated that
he hated that burger. He's like, all right, drawn corded me,
ripped my body parts apart, feed me to the birds

(12:35):
so I may return to earth. Because my god, what
a what a b lt. But if it's just like
a description, you know that this shirt had flavor? Wow? Interesting? Yeah,
I demand you mutilate me like, sad me, sad me,
sad me. He's like, what do he make me clean for?

(13:00):
We have had a whole coming around for at least
I have to Guy Fiery just because he's he's a saint.
And again shout out to I forgot the user or
the Ze gang member who made the Guy Fiery masks
because we said Guy Fiery is the new guy Fox
should be wearing when we're like actually trying to get
like real substantive societal changes to honor the energy of

(13:24):
Guy Fiery. Yeah, the for flavor town. In response to that,
somebody sent us a close up of his hands. Those
are amazing to behold. Oh yeah they were new Arthur fist.
Yeah very uh he has like a giant baby's hands. Yeah,

(13:44):
very plump, beautiful. What is something you think is overrated? Stephen?
Too hot to handle oh fair fair one of the
weaker reasons. It feels like an afterthought and it just
it's that it's a little too exploitive for my taste,

(14:05):
you know, it reminds me of it and it's this
isn't even as extreme as this one show was, but
way back in the day where it was it was
like twenty gay men on an island and was one
guy trying to find love. But some of those guys
were secretly straight and if they can, if they can

(14:27):
convince the gay guy to fall in love with them,
they win like extra money. It's just like a manipulus
who is too hot to handle, exploitative of like hot. Yeah,
just the dumb my eye would take on Berge with

(14:48):
the fact that it's boring. My main issue it's too
hot to handle is that it's boring and it's so
like if you have any like understanding of reality shows,
which everyone does, it's so fake that it's just like
not really fun to watch. Yeah, I I thought I
would get through more of it because on the premise

(15:10):
when we were talking about it, is like great, now Netflix,
bring us with the horniest dating show. And it wasn't
as like what didn't actually quite like pay off on
what I felt the concept was initially, So you know,
I don't know, maybe that's it wasn't horny enough for me,
to be honest, so I needed more horny, needed more frothing.
I watched a horrible I really like took my brain

(15:32):
out of my head and put it in a jar.
Over the weekend and I watched a horrible show called
Selling Sunset. Oh, I love that show. That show the
real estate people who are so toxic. Yeah, it's just
like the Hills for people in their thirties, and it's
just it's it's horrendous with the worst priorities as human,

(15:52):
like absolutely inverted priorities. It's unbelievable. I was a late
cover to it. I just watched all of it this weekend.
Now I'm psyched for season two. They're like, it has
every evil white lady in the books in the show.
It's it's great. Is it on Netflix? It's on Netflix. Yeah,

(16:14):
it looks like somehow because it's an original, isn't it.
It's an original. It's some of the blonde women or
it's literally I cannot tell them apart. They'll be talking
to each other. There was like a whole scene where
I thought there were three people in the room, there
were only two there. But it's like identical people. Yeah.
I remember when it came out. I was like, oh cool,
and Netflix if it's it was like the beginning of

(16:35):
the end of that Netflix original meaning something on like
a pitch and I was like, oh cool. And then
I was like, what the funk is this? Like okay,
so somebody in there, like development department, panic bought this
show because they need to fill out a reality slate.
It was great, you know, just some l a snark
for you, you know, just some absolute but you know,

(16:59):
the show's try, but it's so fun to watch. I
love that there's a soap opera star on it. The
show has everything. Yeah, it really does. The very worst
buyers remor smiles. I think you'll agree, is when you
buy a reality show for your dollar and honestly, and
I know you're a man of conviction and morals. We
wouldn't wish that on anybody, not even Jonald Trump. To

(17:21):
know that, you know that feeling right off a big
reality project, you can't even And finally, Stephen, what is
a myth? What's something people think is true? You know,
to be false. Uh. I was thinking, my my favorite
one and not a lot of people think it's true, hopefully.
But the one from a few years ago about Finland

(17:44):
not being real? Whoa what? There was a there was
a guy who like he heard from his parents like
when he was a kid, like they that you know,
Finland wasn't real and he went on read it about
it and it just had some very like loose evidence

(18:05):
and he did it as a joke. He thought, hey,
look at this funny ship my parents told me. And uh.
But then some people were like, hey, that adds up.
And then some like Finnish people are like, I exist.
And that's a great place for a conspiracy theory to end.
It's just people screaming that they exist, exist, like not

(18:26):
just that the country isn't there, but like the land
mass is not there either. Australia is a big target
for this sort of conspiracy theory with the flat earthers.
I believe, um, But why feel like things like that
are born out of like some kind of weird white
supremacist ideology too? So why erase like a Scandinavian like

(18:50):
Nordic country, Like what's the point? Too good to be true? Man?
Too good. Yeah, you don't even dude, don't even get
my mind around a place like Finland. Oh my, oh
we should. Yeah, well, I feel like that's like only
a matter of time that just like any country that
has like decent infrastructure and values that citizens lives, they're
like that plays actually doesn't exist. So I don't know

(19:12):
what the funk you're talking about. Must be fake. All right,
let's take a quick break, guys. I'm we'll be right
back and we're back. And uh, let's start off with

(19:35):
the Jane Roe story. So Jane row from the Roe v. Wade.
She was the pseudonymous pseudonymous Jane Row Um. Her real
name is Norma mccorby. Uh, and she in the eighties

(19:56):
came out as a anti choice advocate and was aligned
with a lot of like anti abortion, um, you know groups,
and she was like the mooster child to be like
whoa she came Look, she came around to the light
like it was such a like optics victory. Yeah I

(20:16):
didn't I didn't know this. Uh, I like I or
maybe I knew it, but it just didn't stand out
that much for me. But I think this is like
it seems like this was very important for anti choice
people to like prove to themselves that they are right. Well,
anytime you can like take down, if you can take

(20:37):
away like a figurehead of a movement, that's gonna be
a huge win. But it's just like another example of
like why you don't get attached to people, you get
attached to ideas because like this will always happen. But
this story was like very interesting. I'm glad it's getting
reported on. Yeah, So she passed away a couple of

(21:00):
years ago, I think two thousand sixteen, late two thousand
and sixteen or early seventeen. But before she did, she
was making a documentary and in it she talks about
the fact that she was basically paid to say all
those things. Uh, and you know she is pro choice

(21:21):
and didn't believe any of the ship that people were
paying her to say. And it's actually like a it
seems like a very interesting character and has a bunch
of really funny things to say. She takes so many
boxes with them getting her to flip like her her
her public persona or whatever, you know, Like she went

(21:43):
from being this this sort of symbol of like people
and if you have a uterus, you you are up
to you were able to decide what you do with
your body. Uh too then this person who became like
anti abortion, ex gay, born again Christian, Like it was
like check, this fully came to the light and like

(22:04):
that's really and then I guess, yeah, to see this
like admission on her deathbed is really really interesting to
say that, Like yeah, dude, I was just getting a
check to do that, Like that's really all it was,
and I feel bad about it, Like but do we
got a number on Yeah? How much? How much? What

(22:25):
is the dollar amount that it takes to just sell
out a movement? Uh? Serious? But I mean it's yeah,
this is I'm interested to see the documentary and sort
of like get to know what, I mean, like how
she spent her life because my knowledge of her kind
of ends at her doing the heel turn on abortion.

(22:45):
Uh she does come in from the rafters and there's
smoke coming in from everywhere, and oh yeah it signed
she smashes it with a chair. It's awful. But yeah,
I mean I am curious as like what her life

(23:06):
was like after this. But yeah, for me, this is
just like a cut and dry like yeah, nope, don't
become attached to the figurehead, They'll always let you down
kind of kind and also just like how cynical that
this whole thing is, you know what I mean, Like
they were like, the only way we're going to get
a human being to like say this stuff out loud
is we have to pay them, Like we have to

(23:29):
we have to actually create this person with with money
to be able to have like a messaging thing like this. Uh.
And I'm that makes me want to watch that movie
roe V. Wade because I believe that was like a
lot to do with how she kind of came around.
I think roe V. Wait, you mean the fictional films
with John Voight making it that whole thing is about

(23:54):
like her coming to Jesus, isn't it? Wait? Is it her?
I thought it was a frient abortion anti choice activist,
more modern one, but it's it tells a similar tale.
And this kind of puts all of those people who
have a miraculous change of heart under scrutiny. I would say,

(24:16):
at the very least makes you somewhat skeptical. And I mean, yeah,
it's it is interesting that on her deathbed, the things
she talks about are you know, regretting that she did
this and also regretting the same sex relationship that she
had with like her lifelong partner that she then like

(24:38):
turned against because of the anti lgbt Q ideals that
she was kind of aligning herself with. She just has
profound regrets about all those things. So well she should
like like, I'm not that's you know, that's that's good
that she at least had the you know, decency that

(25:01):
I mean, yeah, she had the decency to admit the
wrongdoing and admit that. It's like, yeah, I was asked
to assign a dollar amount to my values and my experience,
and I made I made the whatever that dollar amount was,
I made that choice. I mean, it's it's an unfair
situation to be put in the first place, but you know,

(25:22):
you should feel bad. Well, speaking of doing the bare minimum,
it seems like Georgia should do the bare minimum and
repeal their citizens arrest laws. Yeah, are very is back
in the news because there's new bodycam footage of showing
him in another interaction with police, and it looks like

(25:44):
a man who was doing nothing being harassed by the police.
And if we're not for the policeman's taser, not like
malfunctioning probably would have been tasted in this video because
he was in his car by a park and it
just just adds more layers of frustration when thinking about
what his life was like, um and how it ended.

(26:05):
But again, like the guys who killed him were using
they're saying, they were claiming that under the citizens Arrest statute,
you know, it's just legal in the state of Georgia. Like,
that's why they were approaching him, and that's why when
he uh, when the things got violent, they were justified
in murdering him, essentially, And that's why that's why the
case first like okay, great, oh citizens are okay, that

(26:27):
makes sense, we have that law perfect, Okay, thanks. So
that's why many people now are calling for Georgia to
completely repeal that statute because it just allows for the
laws like this just allow for the continued presumption of
guilt of black people. That's all this ship does. And
when you go back to like these citizens arrest laws,
they have very dark roots in slavery, which is basically

(26:48):
about empowering people to capture runaway slaves uh and be
like hey man, I know there's not cops here, but
you got a gun. And you see a black person
maybe going to like fleeing to the north, something turn
them in. Um. And there's just this very there's just
this very dark history about white people being able to
arm themselves and act extra judicially um in this manner

(27:11):
because of laws like this. And so you know, there's
a lot of studies about saying, you know, any state
that has laws that protects individuals for aggressively protecting their
property or being like vigilantes, um, they're often like it's
there's often an increase in racially based violence in those states,
which makes sense because we have a history of just

(27:32):
for the presumption of guilt for black men and women
and children in this country. Uh. And so what the
other thing that's interesting to see is that those laws
also just like increase homicide rates and emergency visits across
racial groups, like entirely like just the thought of being like, hey,
you who is not trained in any capacity to enforce law,

(27:53):
you now that we're entrusting you with that, it only
leads to bad ship. So this is like you know,
continued thing where the end double a CPM. Many activist
groups are calling for this lot to be or a
statue to be repealed, but I think it needs to
be in entering a larger conversation. Same thing with like
a lot of these standard ground laws use a lot
of things that allow cover for just the continuation of
this kind of violence against people of color. It's one

(28:15):
of those things that it's shocking that it exists in
the first place. Like, it's truly unbelievable. It's such a
ask backwards thing that for a very long time I
did not think it was real anywhere. I thought it
was like a sitcom trophy thing. That's yeah, um, because

(28:40):
the rationale that you would even try to to make
it no, no, this is a racist couldn't exist anymore.
Like you couldn't come up with a good reason why
citizens arrest would be a valuable thing because cops can
be there very quickly. Yeah, and in a way, it's
just a way of legalizing twenty first century lynch mobs.

(29:01):
You know, that's the same thing with a lot of
lynchings and black people. There was plenty of innocent landowners,
farmers or whatever being intimidated as white people were like
begrudgingly being like now I have to live with no,
like this is this It's just it's playing out. This
is just a theme in our history, and it just
you know, the song is the same, just the instruments

(29:22):
are different, but we're still playing the same fucking song
over and over, which is this thing of black bodies
are a menace and for some reason, I'm very easily
moved to take this person's life. It's just again just
a dark it's like the national anthem basically, yeah, and
justify it under the law that the and it's like

(29:44):
inevitably these conversations on the side of the bad faith
racist person is always that if you take away this
right too, like lynch somebody in their own neighborhood, that
you're also what am I try going to say, like
that you're like limiting they're freedom, that you're limiting a murderer,

(30:05):
like their freedom to murder someone that they want to
just because they right, Like it's always spun in this horrible,
bad faith way, and then nothing ever gets accomplished. Yeah,
it's a waking nightmare, like this is the stuff of
dystopian science fiction movies that like you would have people

(30:26):
who believe they have the right to murder someone based
on the law, like within the law, and it's just
a you know, a confluence of the circumstances of just
America's deep abiding racism and the gun lobby being like
as powerful as it is. The legal system though in

(30:46):
this country is just a racist sandbox filled with racist
tools for the outcomes to only be racist. So even
like the people who are operating in it, who you know,
to a certain extent, I can't fault every single person
in this country you for how they behave because this
is just this is the culture of this country. But
it comes in so in so many subtle ways, you

(31:07):
know what I mean, like our media and all these
other things that again it's like but it's like, Okay,
well now here's your sad but here your tools. Here
your tools of uh citizens arrest statutes and being able
to buy a gun at any time, and depictions of
black people who always look like criminals, and even like
you look at just general studies on how black African

(31:28):
American men are perceived by other Americans, like compared to
a white man of the similar size, like that person
is threatening and bigger and scarier. So again, this is
this fucked up racist sam box. It's like, Okay, do
your thing, and that's why This is until they take
those fucking things, those toys out of the sand box
and replace them with actual, just tools, the outcomes will

(31:48):
not change. And I think that's what we're trying to
That's what this attention needs to be on, because very
quickly everyone's just on this whole thing of like Trump says, like,
come come to look on man, there's real problems. When
I was four years old, one time I pooped in
a sandbox and and the whole time that you were

(32:09):
talking just then, I was trying to think of how
can I fold that into a metaphor that would work? Yeah,
it didn't work out. Didn't work out, became an awkward
attend Um yep, yep, sure did. Yeah yeah, Jack, back

(32:29):
to you. Four Citizens on Patrol. Also something that popped
into my mind, just yeah, is that the one Jason
Lee is in post? I think so he's a skate
podcast very quickly sweet check. Yeah, yeah, I think David
Space in it to David Spade, Yeah, he's a David.

(32:57):
I've witnessed one citizen's arrest in my lifetime, and it
was when I worked at a bookstore and my assistant
manager he lost it. Man, someone was trying to steal
a vinyl record and he went stop it, and he
took it. We had like zip ties that we would

(33:20):
use to like zip tie books together, and he took
a zip tie out he waved it. He's like, I'll
arrest you, and then with the teenager was like and
then ran away and he's like, and that's how it's done,
and that I'm like, David, that is not how it's done.
You know it very odd. Stop it, stop it. I'm

(33:40):
not playing around. I gotta I have a small piece
of post. You're in the bond. Wait, what do you mean?
Are you resting me? I know it ended up being
a very kinky like I don't know what it was,
but either way the vinyl was it was do we
know what the recording question was? Tish. I'd have to
check with my old coworker. It was something goofy like.

(34:01):
It wasn't the Smith's, but it was the Smith's adjacent. Yeah,
something trying to be cool, bringing something cool, just trying
to shop something for his GF. Yeah, I get it.
Deep Blue Something's debut album. Let's talk about Mike Pompello.
He is pulling some very Summer of Scott adjacent behavior

(34:25):
um Summer of Scott. If you this is like the
last season the Game of Thrones, one of those things
that was just erased from our mind as soon as
it was over. But we used to have an e
PA chief named Scott Pruitt who would abuse his power
and really silly ways, like make his assistance go to

(34:46):
his dry cleaning and like, uh you wanted Yeah, yeah,
just like really like just diva diva the ship out
of his of the office of his security chief, a
security detail, put the sirens on because he was late
to a dinner reservation. Yeah. Yeah, that'll added up and

(35:08):
basically lead to his The things we would all think
about doing, like were we to be because it, we'd
be like, oh maybe I could get it, but then
we would never we realize that's the wrong. Or you
do it once and then you have like anxiety the
whole weekend about it. You're like, oh, man, I shouldn't
done that. I shouldn't have done that, suld that, I

(35:29):
shouldn't ring that um. But yeah, So now we're looking
at Pompale and he's doing I think he's giving me
Scott Pruitt and all the North vibe simultaneously, which is
a very unique vibras. Yeah, so this I guess it
just means being a cabinet official for Trump is just
like how the you just use any staffer as like

(35:50):
a p A to make any kind of run for
you that you want. Because so the I G of
the State Department was looking into some the reports essentially
that one of Pompeo's staffers was doing performing quote domestic
errands and chores such as handling, dry cleaning, walking the dog,
and making restaurant reservations. So like, I don't know, some

(36:13):
kind of app but as a human um and this
was like, so this started to get hot, and then
Pompeo went to Daddy and said, please fire the i G.
Because it's making it hot. Then hours later after that
story came out about the errands, Elliott Engel, who's on
like the I Think Armed Services are Intelligence Armed Services Committee,
he was basically saying, like, I'm also heard that the

(36:35):
I G was looking into a Saudi arms sale that
Pompeo authorized that was not supposed to happen, so that
that could also be the reason, not just the dry
cleaning thing. So he's got a lot on his plate.
But again, you know, uh, there's so many other things
going on. Trump just says four things and we're talking
about something else. Well, speaking of talking about something else, real, briefly,

(36:58):
let's talk about why we should be ignored wearing all
of the smoke bombs that Trump is throwing at the
news cycle. Yeah. I've said it before and I'll say
it again. This guy is a bozo. This guy stinks.
Huh um. Yeah. He has been out here just on

(37:19):
a tear the last few days. I mean again, we
have stories about all these inspectors generals, that inspectors General
that he's fired, botched pandemic response, nothing but numbers about
like how Biden is doing better. Not that does matter,
but in his mind that they really do. Um. So
this week he is into some serious ship. He came

(37:41):
out here smoke bomb number the first was this revelation
that he is now taking hydroxy chloroquin himself. I just
want to play this clip for everybody because the way
he sounds it, he starts getting defensive, um and it
almost sounds like he's lying that he's actually taking it.
But please listen here. A lot of good things have

(38:02):
come out about the hydroxy. A lot of good things
have come out and you'd be surprised at how many
people have taken and especially the front line workers. Before
you catch it, the front line workers, many many are
taking it. I happen to be taking it. I happen
to be taking it right now. Yeah, a couple of

(38:26):
weeks ago. I started taking because I think it's gonna
have heard a lot of good stories, and if it's
not good, I'll tell you right. I'm not gonna get
hurt by it. It's been around for forty years from malaria.
Plope is for other things. I take it. Frontline workers
take it pretty much. It was like, yeah, dude, I
got a girlfriend. She's in college, and everyone at the

(38:48):
Lune it was like, you have a girlfriend that's in
college and he's like yeah, yeah, dude, like started dating
a couple of weeks ago, like so bashful. It's really like, yeah,
I've been a couple of weeks. His nose is like renny.
He kind of looks dishell, it looks a little more
disheveled than normal. But this again immediately sucked up all there.

(39:09):
It feels like the frontline workers thing. He was expecting
to hit bigger people and it was like me too,
I'm doing it. Yeah, I think again, it's a The
whole thing is really interesting because it like it, it
accomplishes so many things. It sends the news cycle into
a tail spin because now they're not talking about what

(39:31):
this Inspector General being fired on any kind of Pompeo
wrong doing. The ship that William Barr is doing with
the Michael Flynn case, that there's like twelve state attorneys
general that have signed onto an amicus brief supporting the
do o j's decision to drop the case. Like they're
now like getting their cronies in the states to like
back this shitty decision up. So we have this going on,

(39:53):
and I was like, whoa, he's taking it the thing
that everyone says don't do. And also like people are
curious if there's some how some tangential financial stake that
he has in it. And along with other people who
have been so like proudly trumpeting this thing because like
the front line thing sounds like a bad ad. He's like,
you know, they're all taking it on their threadlines to
protect themselves and if that's how they're safe, you know, Yeah,

(40:17):
like it's sort of that very same thing, but uh,
it's it's the I think the most fascinating part after
all of this is what happened to Fox News in
light of this, because you know, their their whole thing
is like news during the day and then full pedal
to the metal racism at night and just like you know,
typical like dog whistle racism during the day in the

(40:40):
news section. But when it gets to the opinion people,
the editorials, that's the fucker Carlson's and the hannitys and
Ingraham's and all those uh wonderful people. Uh that's where
like the split happened. Neil Cavudo, he went on TV
and absolutely like shut the whole thing down, like he
based siically was telling people do not, for any reason

(41:04):
do what the President just said. Um let me and
I just want to play this clip for you because
this is like very interesting for for Fox right because
normally they'll want to just be like, oh, okay, that's interesting.
The President said that this is him like straight up
warning his listeners that like, you know, funk what you
just heard. The v A study to which the President
alluded was at a loaded political one. It was a

(41:27):
test on patients there and those who took it in
a vulnerable population, including those with respiratory other conditions. They died.
I want to stress again, they died. If you are
in a risky population here and you were taking this
as a preventative treatment to ward off the virus, or
in a worst case scenario, you're dealing with the virus

(41:49):
and you are in this vulnerable population, it will kill you.
I cannot stress enough. This will kill you. So that's
a pretty stark split. And the President naturally on Twitter
is like, I don't know what happened to Foxy completed,
They're all, yeah, the latest smoke bomb he threw up

(42:10):
is that he doesn't want to put the Obama portrait
up in the White House. Everyone's like, oh no, And
Obama didn't want to either, Yeah, he said he didn't.
He didn't want it under this presidency. He was like
he was unwilling to do it. But the other end
of the other one was the World Health Organization fight
that he's picking by saying he'd like drafted this like

(42:31):
junior high level letter like fuck you note like type
letter to the World Health Organization, be like you lied
about this, you fucked us over on that it's it's
full of horseshit, like none of it is true or
and if anything that is true, it's like so just
like barely near the truth that it could pass um.
But all of this to say that these are all

(42:53):
things to just distract the news cycle. And then for
in the instance of the World Health Organization, he needs
just someone to fight against going into the election, because
he can't just have this situation with the coronavirus be like,
how did you fund this up? Man? It has to
be like, no, can you believe China or the World
Health Organization or fucking bats or I don't know what.

(43:14):
Then they're gonna say, yeah, like the bats of Austin,
Texas or the reason for this. Have you guys seen
the Epoch Times add on YouTube where they're like, it's
got a woman who's like a straw man who's like,
I've heard the mainstream media say that Trump is responsible
for the poor response to COVID nineteen and then this
guy like pulls out this giant like things. It's like,

(43:37):
here's evidence that China covered it up, and here's it's
uh this and it's for their strange times, right. Well,
the Epoch Times is Follonong, which is a religious group
in China, and you know they love Trump. They love
a lot of conservative politicians because they're very strongly anti

(43:58):
Chinese Communist Party. So a good source is what I'm saying.
People should check it out. And then in the other corner,
I just encountered this, this piping hot news on my feed.
Joe Biden finally makes up nickname for Trump, President Tweetie.

(44:20):
Oh my god, So get ready for some spicy debate,
President Tweetie. And that's when I knew we were in
for another four years president. Honestly, but you know what,
the what that's just not even a move the needle
because everyone's still so focused on hydroxychloric quick. It's a

(44:44):
it's an interesting strategy of just hiding while while running
for president. It will it'll be interesting to see how
that works. Uh, President Tweetie is not good. I'd love
to see Biden in a full Sylvester costume though. Yeah,
I'm coming for you, President Tweetie. And he's chasing the

(45:04):
grandma around and she's so it's just because he tweets.
That's the the whole thing. You got. He's got a
big head, got I got it. He's always tinking. He
top hoody tats that's true. He does say it a lot.

(45:25):
He's the more memorable character of the two. Any any
other physical attribute he'd hit him on. He has the
same thing. They both got fake teeth, they both got
fake hair, they both got fake tans. Like there's not
if you want to get a schoolyard with it, somebody like,
so do you bro At least neither of them have
No one in the world has worse veneers than Scoob. Oh, yeah,

(45:47):
let's get into it all right. Let's take a quick
break and then we'll talk about Scoop and we're back.
Uh and Scoob is the was the number one new

(46:08):
movie in America over the one end, it was would be,
but there's no But there were no movies any by default.
It's like the number one film, isn't it. Basically there
was a capone movie by Josh Trank, Gotta be Trash, oh,

(46:29):
with Tom Hardy, Tom Hardy, Tom Hardy. Yeah, I'll watch that.
He's my birthday twin. You put a lot of snock
on birthday. That's a weird that's a weird path. Watch. Hey,
Tommy Lee Jones birthday twin baby, Prince Harry. Look look Jack,

(46:50):
we can go down this road. I got a birthday
commitment to and uh and Christians Slater good Pack Solid
Pas school with his brother. Oh really it was in
The Great Panda Adventure. WHOA, what a treat. So Scoob is,
you know, riding the same wave as Trolls World Tour.

(47:11):
It's a bunch of you know, parents stuck at home
with their kids looking for anything that will eat an
hour of time, and Scoob fits. The bill is exactly
ninety minutes long, which is the first tip off that
it's not very good. I was on a class with
my son and one of the other kids was like,

(47:33):
I've seen Scoob twice already. Like I was like, they
just came in and four year old, Um, so Jamie,
you actually watched Scoop. I was there, Yeah, Isaac and
I got it. Friday night, made some nachos, made some Margarita's,

(47:53):
sat down watch Scoob. So this is a Scooby Doo
movie in which he has human teeth? Yeah, I got
I would like to go back into the Scooby Doo
catalog and see if this movie is what originates Scooby
Doo having human teeth. But yeah, so this is like,

(48:15):
I didn't person I mean, I think for kids, it's
a kids movie, like whatever, it's good for kids. I
found the story to be very confusing. There was too
much going on. Mark Wahlberg is like, it starts out
as like, oh, Shaggy and Scooby your friends? Do you
find out how your friends? I didn't really want to know,
but it's nice to know. That's cute, that's nice. And
then all of a sudden there's a huge pivot in

(48:35):
the middle where they're like, Scooby Doo's DNA needs to
be used to become a superhero, and Mark Wahlberg is
a disgraced It's it's just like a movie that feels
like it was kind of written by an algorithm. There's
just let me just read this plat synopsis from j M,
and I want you to let let me know if
this is true. Scooby Doo, it turns out, is the

(48:58):
descendant of Alexander the greats Dog, and Alexander built a
literal gateway to Hell. Is somehow genetically predisposed to open
the gates of Hell. They don't, okay, so I will
say I wasn't paying close enough attention to know if

(49:19):
it was a literal gateway to Hell. I'll take Jam
at his word for that, but there does there is
a huge pivot where it all of a sudden becomes
like a chosen one narrative for Scooby Doo, where it's like,
all of a sudden, it's like your DNA, you're the
only one that can close the portal. And then the
mission shifts and then it's like Mark Wahlberg is playing

(49:41):
like a Birdman, not actual birdman, but it looks like
Birdman and he's a superhero and he falcon and he's
got like some it just like it feels like studio
executives are like, okay, kids like what superheroesby Doo? Alexander Hell,

(50:04):
it's kind of chaotic. I also had a big problem
with how they animated Simon Cowell. It is so uncanny. Valley, Wait,
what do you mean The way they animated like it
was too good? No, not no, But but if you
look in the dock of how they animate Simon Cowell
versus how they animate the Scooby Doo teens. They animated

(50:25):
the Scooby Doo teens like cartoon characters, but they animate
Simon Cowell to just look like himself and it's very
Simon Cow might have had some notes on how they
animated him, right, like they don't. He doesn't have the
cartoony eyes that the rest of the characters do. He's
just like just make it look like a photo realistic

(50:45):
and it's very it's it's really like we were like like,
it's very bizarre. It sounds like, yeah, they mo capped him,
but then just traditionally animated everybody else. It's just I mean,
I will say I didn't not and I don't regret
watching it. It was like it a lot, a lot
happened the portals that they closed the portal to Hell

(51:08):
at the end. But it's sort of like with Scoob,
but it's also with the power of friendship. It's kind
of unclear what I don't know, like maybe a more
you know, a stute viewer will know exactly what happened,
but it was just it was weird. And then in
the middle they have a bit where like a visual
gag where they're in like some sort of space shippy

(51:29):
thing with falcon and then you there, you know, like
their their cheeks are dragged back and flapping, and it
reveals that Scooby Doo has a full set of human teeth.
Do they comment on that? No. I pause it and
I rewound it and I washed it again, and I
pause it again and I took a picture and it's

(51:50):
a full set of human teeth. Because he's never had
like fangs. Nobody's I freak. In the live action ones
with Freddie Prince Jr. And Sarah Michelle Geller and like
Linda Carlolini, he had like dog teeth. They weren't people.
I could be wrong, but any animal with human teeth
is it. It's very Have you ever seen those fish

(52:12):
that look like they have like just a teeth? Those
are so disturbing. It's just why is that happening? Scooba
is just a wild movie. I would I would recommend
watching it if you don't have to pay for it. Also,
I would recommend uh looking up the behind the scenes
drama because this was the first Scooby project in like

(52:35):
twenty years where Lillard isn't shaggy. It's it's will Forte.
And that was a big and Lillard took to Twitter
to express his like he was not having he was
president tweety huh, he was president tweety will Forte silence. Wow,

(52:55):
He's like, you're right, Shaggy would never say that. Come on, well,
you saw compare the Shaggy's who does a better Shaggy?
I am a huge will Forte fan, but it's like,
this is Lillard. I mean, yeah, Matthew, this is Lillard.
It's it's just an impossible bar. I wonder if, like

(53:18):
Lillard has become so shaggied out that they just couldn't
afford him for this, or maybe it seems like they
wanted to reboot the cast, like there's Zac Efron is
fred Gina Rodriguez is Velma. It's like you're just like, okay,
we're just getting a whole new cast. They recash Shaggy,
but Lillards was like Shaggy from two thousand two to
two thousand nineteen. It sounds like Lillard's main complaint about

(53:43):
Shaggy was that it wasn't me all right, we're gonna here,
let's talk Game of Thrones. For some reason, h it's
yesterday was the one year anniversary of the finale of
the Thrones. It is my reason, I am the reason

(54:04):
we're talking about it. I don't know. That just seems
like a very very long time ago, a different version
of reality when we carrid about Game of Thrones. Also,
it was just interesting to be reminded of how bad
the ending was, because I think there's part of me
that was trying to like it, just because I didn't

(54:28):
want it to be as far below the quality as
of the rest of the show as it was. But yeah,
I was looking at some screen caps of Peter Dinklich
being like, and who's got a better story than brand
the Broken, and just like, such a bad moment. It's
such a bad idea. It was a fun moment to

(54:51):
watch in a room though, where everyone was like nosing
at the tv. Basically it was like I think everyone's
like fuck you basically sentiment in the office when we
were all together. Well, I remember that watching. I know,
it's such a nice memory to be angry in the
same room. You guys were all just giving each other

(55:11):
shoulder rubs in a circle, right, Oh yeah, we're passing
a dijury do around. Yeah. I didn't realize that like
at the time even well, first of all, I didn't
realize there were like individual critic reviews of each episode
that like showed up on Rotten Tomatoes but if you
look at that season, there were only six episodes and

(55:33):
it goes eight seven percent seventy and then like it
really falls off a cliff for those last three. Um yeah,
I mean two to three I think is probably where
I guess you'd say it's it really began, because that's
that's a four percent drop. You know. At least we
went five percent between one and two. Yeah. Three was

(55:56):
the long night. That was the long battles and oh yeah,
everyone's like, oh man, that's gonna be so tight. Like
I heard they shot those battle scene for three years.
Actually see them aging a. Yeah. I think my biggest
gripe with that, I was like, everyone should have died.
Everyone should have died, everyone should have died in that episode.

(56:18):
I was emotionally prepared for everyone to be dead, maybe
for almost everyone to live, and then the people who
did die died is a just stupid way. Yeah. And
then I mean that's the thing, Like it's funny for
a show that ended so like like such a lame,
little wet fart in the end, like it's gonna it's

(56:38):
affected so many things after this though, which is funny
because as much as we're like angry about it. It's
it's it changed TV, and like, you know, I'm curiously
what the next show is of this like kind of scale,
because it's definitely like shown that we all as like
a viewers have an appetite for something like that. Yeah,

(56:58):
I don't think we're going to have one for a
little while. I think Westworld's as close as we've gotten.
But you don't. You don't hear about west World the
way you heard about I was that old fuck bought
TV show. It's weird, man, it went place, it went
places that I was like, oh, they're ending the series here,

(57:19):
and then rushed the whole thing and I was like, still,
like kind of I think I read somewhere that this
is the last season. I see why they're doing all
this now. And then like a day before the finale
or they're like season four confirmed, and I blown away that,
like I have no idea where they're going to go

(57:40):
with it, and the the dialogue is trash, and but
god damn it, I'll watch it. Man. I'm going further
down to Scooby Hole. I gotta be honest, I've been there.
I'm not listening any of you were saying, there's so
much Scooby stuff going on. There's the good news about

(58:01):
Scooby about Scoop is that Scoop is voiced by the
original Scoop Frank Welker. He took a break ship that
the O g Scoop. He's seventy four years old. He's
been scooping for over fifty years. He's he's still scooping
to this day, isn't it nice? I love the idea
of a film that's about his life, and it's like

(58:22):
one of those like Clint Eastwood, like One Last Job
films were like they're begging Frank Welker, but he's like,
it's actually like it kills him to do it. I
just really can't. Like he's like and then like in
between takes, like helping blood into a napkin, and you're like,
yea again, Frank, And he's like, yeah, so wrestler, Frank,

(58:45):
please not another Scoop. One more Scoop on, one more Scoop.
He's like a leg Like I love like all the
stories about like legacy voiceover actors, because now only celebrities
do voiceover because it's easy money. It's you don't really
have those same like legacy Like that's what they do.
Tom Kenny Kenny types, and Frank Welker is like one

(59:07):
of them. He was like he was Garfield on The
Garfield Show. He is Nibbler of Futurama, he was Megatron
on Transformers. He was Curious George, Like he's like those
old school Franklin It's it's impressive, yeah, Franklin will. Yeah,
it's definitely like you just used to be a thing
where like that was truly a trade of like voice

(59:28):
acting for animation and things like that. Back it's the
dying are Yeah, I feel like there's like only I
I mean, Tom Kenny is obviously like the leading guy,
and then there's who voiced Tommy Pickles, Tara Tara Strong,
that's a big one, and then kind of Patrick Warburton,
like there's there's not a lot of people left to
all the voice actors worth their salter in video games. Now.

(59:52):
Oh that's true. Yeah, that's kind of like where it's migrated.
It was like two years ago or something. They actually
all went on strike because they weren't being treated probably
weren't allowed like proper amount of breaks after uh, you know,
two hours of screaming over and over again, like for
some call of duty thing. It's like, yeah, and then

(01:00:14):
if they can get Chris Pratt to show up for
three hours and just like mumble two takes of each line,
he makes a million dollars. It's just silly. Yeah. The
interesting point I just want to lightly flex. My cousin's
maternal great grandmother. Penny Singleton was the voice of Jane
Jetson back in the day, and she was badass so too.

(01:00:36):
She was also like a labor leader for like women
that were in variety shows, like was testifying in front
of the Senate like in the sixties about like the
treatment of like women on like these shows. But Singleton, yeah,
Penny Singleton. Check her out there. The last thing I'll
say about Sorry, sorry for backtracking and going back to
school scoop talk. The IMDb page does say that this

(01:01:01):
is this is the planned first installment in a Scooby
Doo cinematic universe. Hell yes that so yeah, that's dog
eugenics theme in all this ridiculous like dog DNA hell

(01:01:21):
eugenic chosen one. I don't know. Doesn't mean that they're
going to do like um, like wacky races and like
all those old other like Hannah Barbera or is it
just straight up Scooby universe. Yeah, I mean, I like,
I don't know Hannah Barbera stuff. I feel like it's

(01:01:41):
very hard to reboot because if you rewatch a lot
of it now, a lot of it was not very good.
I I defy you to watch an old episode of
The flint Stones and laugh even one time. It's mostly
domestic abuse jokes, but the buttones I will, I will argue,
and I've tried, because I like, I love animation at

(01:02:03):
work in animation, the Flintstones is like borderline unwatchable. It
is deeply unfunny, like it's I just remember even as
a kid, I was like, dude, this ship. It's a whack.
Like I could even worry kid without even knowing what
was going on. But anyways, I didn't even know about
wacky racism until you just said that. I was that, Yeah,

(01:02:27):
I just have like the cars and stuff, and it
would be like all the it would be all the
Hanna Barbera properties like Aggy Doggie and Doggy Daddy and
Captain Greata one of the it was great Paper, one
of the characters. Sure they did they have They had
like Droopy, they had the Jets, since they had they

(01:02:48):
had they had a lot of good ship, they had
the Smurts. I think is that wrong? That could be wrong.
I just remember somebody. Yeah, Um, well, Stephen, it's been
a pleasure having you. Where can people find you and
follow you? You can find me at wilbur with any

(01:03:10):

about it. It's fine. I have an album coming out
on May. It's called sixteen Bits. You can pre order
it on iTunes and Amazon right now, or just wait

(01:03:34):
till it's on Spotify. You should follow Steven's one of
the funniest people out there. Uh, Stephen, where is there
a tweet you've been enjoying? Uh? Actually, Uh, something I
want to bring up. So maybe ZiT Zeit Nation can
help me out with this. Well, there's a there's an account. Uh.

(01:03:55):
It used to be called Jeff's Wife and I've been
following it for years and it's this woman from Montana
who just talks about her husband. Uh. And it's very
funny and I, for the life of me, could not
tell the different, Like if it is a sincere account
or not, and I tried contacting them about it. I

(01:04:19):
thought it might be a comedian friend who's like doing
this account, but because it's so it's so good. Recently
in December she changed it to Jeff's ex wife and
became like Jeff. It said, Jeff and I are getting
divorced and it's Jeff's ex wife now. And it's just
been a lot of like really sincere, like the type

(01:04:41):
of stuff a mom would pose, like here's what's going
on in Missoula and stuff, and that as a whole
other wrinkles. So if somebody can get back at me
and tell me if Jeff's wife is real or not,
I just I need to know. Good. N Uh Jamie,

(01:05:02):

What do we We've got? We're doing on the Bechtel
Cast this week we are doing Birds of Prey with
Emily Yoshida. It's a really fun episode, highly recommend and
tweet I've been that is directly related to what we

(01:05:25):
were just talking to about. Is my friend Nick Sarelli
at Nick Sarelli tweeted just yesterday, in the nineteen sixties,
people in their thirties and forties would get home from
work and watch The flint Stones, which is just something
to think about. Watch back old flint Stone clips and
you'll be like, boomers are wild or Boomer's parents whatever,

(01:05:51):
the greatest generation, the greatest generation r I b. Yeah,
the Flintstones advertised cigarettes, like that's who they were. They
were four grown ups. I'll still, I'll still, I'll still
stump for the for the vitamins, but I can't kids.
And I want to rewatch the John Gimman movie and

(01:06:12):
gros Yeah, that's a good movie. I mean, it's not
a bad concept. It's just that they were like, you
know what it would be funny is if this was
a riff on other boring sitcoms. Yeah, with the Honeymooners
in history, and those aren't Those don't really hold up either. Yeah,
it's not flid Stone specific problem, but it's just funny

(01:06:34):
because they take that group and go further back even
more things weren't. Okay, let's address even these archaic things.
Let's put on in literally archaic values I still like
the like visual gags of like toilet dinosaur being like,
don't ship in my mouth? Like those Uh miles where

(01:07:02):
can people find you? What's a tweet you've been enjoying? Twitter? Instagram, Uh,

fance talking about ninety d fiance if you like that
reality stuff. Uh. Some tweets I like first one from
h John Benjamin Uh. It says with public restrooms a
major problem during coronavirus, there's going to be a huge

(01:07:24):
uptick in shipping on the side of the road, predicting
that for himself. Uh. And then this one is from
no Controller. It's a Gadsten flag and the snake underneath
it just says let me die at Hooters. Hell yeah. Uh.
Jake Rejected Sacrifice tweeted if you see a horse that

(01:07:45):
symbolism baby, better find out what that horse means before
it's too late. And anime police tweeted fool me once,
thanks for me twice cool. I love it, thanks Uh.
