Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to season thirty three, episode
one of that Daily Eight Guys for May two thousand
eight team. My name is Jack O'Brien aka I want
something else to get me through this semi charm Jack
O'Brien baby baby Ah. That's courtesy of the goat Chapman

(00:22):
Rice and could have gone harder, could have gone further.
I am thrilled to be joined as always by my
co host, Mr Miles Pray. How you got Miles hard
for the evening Kiss Mouse? She's moving you confused things?
Should I just said out? OrCam Harder? Help me find
Miles Gray? Now? Why you want to go and do that?
Love hunh okay? That is a Tripod quest a k

(00:44):
A from at the No Call, No Show Michael Ian
on Twitter. Uh, so weird that you do that a K.
I was just at a Dodger game and that was
playing and one of my favorite tripod ustles. Just so
you know, Laurie, we do this for about a half hour,
just saying our names back and forth. We are thrilled
to have you joined in our third seat by one
of the great comedy writers and stand ups working also

(01:06):
in New York Times bestselling author's Laurie Kilmartin, thank you.
That was quick. I thought I was going to I
didn't know I we jumping into quickly. Yeah, we thought
we would sing more. You were ready for that. I
was hoping, Uh, Laurie, what is something that you have
researched or searched on the internet recently? Um Chin implants, yes,

(01:31):
that because that is the thing that apparently Ivanka Trump got. Yeah,
she in fact that kind of recently. I noticed hers
again because I made some kind of snarky comment about
how if she had her original knows, we'd be much
more angrier about all the trademarks she just got in China.
But because she's pretty, she gets pass. You know, no
one seems to care. And then someone showed me some

(01:53):
old pictures of her and I was like, oh, yeah,
she had a chin and plants, and I was like,
you know what, I wanted one a long time ago.
And I also was going to have my jaw broken
and realigned because I might have a gummy smile. And
I was like, that's why I don't have an HBO specialist.
So I'm like, let me do what I gotta do.
But then um, I went to a dentist, Andy, So

(02:13):
why don't you just not smile as hard? And although
the dentist yes, because because I was asking major surgery,
can you bring my gun line up? Yeah? He goes.
You can solve your problem by just you know, uh,
controlling your smile a little bit more and what you
can't normally in a laugh. You're just who you are.

(02:34):
But I was like, oh, okay, you happiness. Yeah, that's
the solution of breaking your job. It was way cheaper,
but that was that was a search for about a
year of before and afters on gum surgery and how
people fix their jaws or change them. I know, no
job as a rhino plastic. So what is a chin job?
Chin implant? No? But you know I must have some

(02:56):
fancy medical right I don't remember. It's just a shin augments.
Oh wait, chin augmentation a fero plastic. But yeah, it's
worth people, at least for the eyelids and the eye region. Okay,
we're all. If you get your chin, get your chin enhanced,

(03:19):
it naturally brings your eyelids up. That's how that works.
But people who think Ivonka Trump is pretty go look
at a picture of her. She's not like ugly before.
It's just it's so interesting, like how she constructed her
whole face from scratch. Yeah up. And it is also

(03:39):
proof that plastic surgery can be good these days, even
though I don't know. I think back in the day
and even still a lot of people that you see
in Hollywood, it's like, oh, they've had plastic surgery. But
I wouldn't know looking at Ivanka Trump that she's constructed
her face holy from scratch. You don't see. You only
see real I only surgeries. I only look at the

(04:03):
form exactly. This is esthetically pleasing to me, exactly, Laurie,
What is something that is overrated? Okay? I had a
tie between avocados and the internet. Wow, let's go avocados. Okay.
They have a disgusting texture they do. It's really gross.
Really can't get over it. Um and they don't really

(04:24):
have a taste like I have to. If I were
to eat avocado, I would have to salt it heavily,
but I couldn't get past the texture. And you choose, yeah,
you choose not to. I avoid it completely. And I
don't like guacamuli either. Do you not like hamas? I
don't mind Thomas, You don't mind. Yeah, there's something a
little too creamy about avocado that is unsettling. Yeah, it's

(04:48):
like Nature's butter is butters, natures butter. You're right, yeah, yeah,
well it's want avocados. Yeah, I guess I'm a millennial.
So you cut me open, I'll just spill out avocado.
And I don't like that it's a labeled It's labeled
a fruit, right because as a pit and technically is that?
Why isn't that usually that's probably that's it? Right? Didn't

(05:11):
the Supreme Court have to like tormato or something exactly?
Went right down to the wire, Kennedy sided with the
Conservative because of some like taxation thing that like fruits
are different than vegetables. Uh. Yeah, they've had to determine
all sorts of I guess it is technically a fruit.
And Lorie, why is the internet overrated? Other than the

(05:33):
obvious reasons that it's terrible? Besides the obviously well here's
it tricked us because I think at first it just
seemed like it was a solution to loneliness for me,
especially like chat rooms and stuff like that, and now
it's it's just horrible. Were you a prolific chat room. Yes,
I was on a o L very early. Wow, what
was your screen name? Any lorinn or any a n

(05:57):
y n y l a U r I E. It
was opposite of this. There's this like Vienna or Austrian
princess named Annie Laurie, and I just my name was
Laurie Anne. So I just sort of flipped it around
because I I might have had a Princess Diana fetish
at the time. It's also a fun play on, like
I know there are celebrities who are like that, Shaquille

(06:19):
O'Neal this, You're like, I'm any Laurie just whichever Laurier
you want me to be. Yeah. Well this was before
that though, But I'll take credit for being very blase
about my uniqueness. Um. I also think that it has
had a weird sort of it's like a synthetic cure

(06:39):
for loneliness that has actually made us more lonely. That's
not a new observation. But I know it's hard to
criticize the Internet without sounding like every tweet you've ever
read about it, But it really, despite bringing us closer,
we couldn't be further apart. Basically, that takes you see
every time. Yeah, Miles, you probably didn't grow up without
the Internet at all, right, you in your well, no,

(07:01):
because I was born eight four, so like the Internet
for me, I didn't really start using until maybe so
up until about ten or eleven. I was just like
the computer was like the thing my dad told me
to not fucking touch. Ever, was like I paid a
lot of money for that. So I was like, I
just want to play the early version of Prince of Persia.
Uh and yeah, so I'm just on that cup and

(07:23):
my friends and I always talk about this is like
at least we did know a pre Internet world where
like I had to learn how to use a Thomas
Guide for my mom to be like, where's your birthday
party you want to go to? Because I get the
Thomas Guide out and I'm okay using a grid system
to find a map that is specific to Los Angeles,
that is a very specific l a thing. Quickly did
those people lose their fortunes? Oh my god, Thomas Thomas.
I feel like they had I think the garment had

(07:46):
him by the balls and like hand over the maps.
That was a huge thing. That was like everybody had
a Thomas guy and it was just a series of maps, right,
because la is very all you know, it was like
a zip code or maybe the block number of your street,
looked in the back, found it and then just from
there like try and picture. Like soon I'll be like, okay,

(08:07):
where is that relations to the freeway to take? And yeah,
so those are the kinds of skills. But yeah, I
I definitely, But I guess it's weird. You know. I
didn't really start using the Internet to even like for
my education until probably seventh grade, six seventh grade, so
I went for a long time, like having to use
like the Dewey decimal system and encyclopedias and stuff like that.
You know, it's weird though, Like my kid is eleven

(08:27):
and a lot of stuff he's learning, you memorizing or
supposed to memorize. I know he's not never going to
need to know and it's so easy to look up.
It's like, should kids still be learning the same things
that we learned without the internet? Or good question? You know,
we were always like why do I have to know this?
But they literally that is a valid question, right, I

(08:48):
learn any information, Like all you need to do is
learn skills for finding the information and also learning survival
skills in case, like all the Internet goes out, the
information is taken from you. Yeah, so you should learn
how to google and start a fire. That's about. Yeah,
you're good, But what comes first? Learning how to start

(09:09):
a fire or learning how to google how to start
a fire? Yeah, exactly, the new philosophical question. But that
is the one piece that you have to kind of
store in the old memory bank. Everything else just stored
on Google, like our email. But I do think that
we will look back in a hundred years or people
who are still live a hundred years and be like,
I can't pretty that's what Yeah, we will. We will

(09:31):
look back at when I am a hundred and thirty
eight years old. You might live that long. Yeah, that's true.
I mean you're just looking at me and seeing I'm
in great health and you're like, wow, this guy. Yeah no,
that's people think that there might be a great leap
forward in life expectancy in the not too distant future.
But I do think we will look at the things

(09:53):
that we learn the way we educate our children today
and be like that was a leftover. There's a lot
of things that I think are left over and curse
of we still teach kids curse of God. Yeah, yeah,
I haven't seen people's pennonship. Now I've seen some kids
right down, What the funk are you writing? Like do
you know how to write? It does help you think,
to be able to write on paper, it helps you think.

(10:14):
But there's also so much information now that you have
access to that like say a hundred years ago, when
you're just learning state capitals and states, you know, just
to use internet computer terms, just like maybe one gigm
of information a person had to know for their entire life.
And now when I was your all's age, I barely
knew who the president was, and you guys probably know

(10:36):
intricate details of policy now just because it's all over
the place, Like there's so much being thrown at you
that what wasn't thrown at like thirty and twenty somethings.
I think a lot of that is Trump, though I
think a lot of that is just what a great
president or current just like how how how? What about

(11:02):
feminist Laurie Network. I think the young people had to
funk up the country and like put it in a
state of crisis before they were like, okay, now we
really need to learn this ship and now I agree
that people are a little bit more plugged in, but
the Boomers that sucked it up though, Let's be clear, Yeah, yeah, no, no, no,

(11:23):
that's that's for sure. And then Gen X just sort
of wasn't big enough to really have an impact. And
now to me, it's like it's an amazing battle between
millennials and boomers this next election, and time is on
your side because they're dying. Right. I didn't realize millennials
are even bigger a generation than the boomers. Did you
know that? It's just Millennials are more like modest, so

(11:46):
they don't give themselves the name like the Baby Boomers.
It's like we are a boom broke right, exactly how
to afford housing? Shrip? Like, yeah, Millennials, let's get together
and show everybody who we are. You don't have a
war right to come off? Well, I mean, I guess
that that's the greatest generation. But they famously sort of

(12:09):
came off a war and came into this time of
happiness and you guys sort of just were dumped during
a recession to the planet. And I mean, we've had
small wars, but so the Baby Boomers, we've had war,
not not the war tend all wars. I mean, I
feel like most eighties kids were born out of like
coke fueled like trysts. So like like me, yeah yeah,

(12:30):
my parents sell me like for cocaine in the eighties,
Like I was doing good. I think all of our
parents were some version of high at some point in
the pretty soon before we were conceived. So that's why
we're also smart. What is something that's underrated? Lord um trees?
What his backyard? All cement? Just pa pa. Every human

(12:58):
being should be planting a tree a day. That's so funny.
I was just telling her, Majesty, my girlfriend, that we
should put a tree in the ground because we have
a house, a new house, and like watching it grow.
Like I remember when we first moved into a house
as a kid. My parents are like, we're planting a
tree so you will see over time like how it
works and everything like that. And we always got gifts

(13:20):
of trees, like from like my parents. Friends wouldways like,
here's a tree for your house. We don't do that anymore,
but I was like, I want to put a tree
down because like, especially when you see a tree that's
like really old, you're like someone thought seven years ago. Yeah,
they're dead and I'm taking I'm gonna take a risk
and put a little sapling here. But eventually this thing
will be massive and someone will reap the benefits. Yeah,

(13:40):
and it's good for the environment and it's just to
see greenery. Yeah, my kids are just gonna carve some
stupid ship into a wet concrete block, like like our
neighborhood has like nineteen fifty something like initials. Yeah, but
that's the stupid version. The tree thing is a good idea. Yeah.

(14:01):
I used to play in nature all the time, Like
I had woods by my house and I just go
out there, like my favorite lucky how is the valley?
The valley? I had one mother lemon trees, yeah, like
by the literally hung out by the l a river
like go down like overpasses, and we had one lemon
tree that I would climb up in as a kid

(14:23):
because I would just like to be like climbing trees
was fun and if you got high enough, you could
just be like I'm gonna hide to make my mom
panic like I was kidnapped, and then I'll come out,
which is like the mom. We just at the mall
Man Clothing Racks shout out to my grandma, who was
like literally left to call my parents to apologize that
she had lost me and I was just hiding in

(14:46):
a clothing racks. Oh yeah, but I would say that
from maybe four to ten, it's cool to like live
in the suburbs by a forest and be able to
play in But then like, once you're a teenager, I
hung out at the Dayton mall and all right, you
had Daton, Ohio. Oh my god, you had like cool
culture and lived in Los Angeles, so I think you

(15:08):
had me beat there. Hey, Dayton is home to some
of the greatest funk bands ever, So Dayton don't sleep
on the Dayton is a great complex town. People from
Dayton got mad at me. It's a love hate relationship. Guests.
I worked in Dayton many times at jokers. Yeah, that's
a very famous it was. I've never encountered an audience
that was ad percent chain smokers, but I had. Yeah,

(15:33):
I would have to throw clothes away. You couldn't wash
and shave my head at the end of the week,
couldn't watch the smoker there, Like Shad O'Connor impersonator. They're like,
it's because of the smoking. Laurie What is a myth?
What's something people think it's true that you know, based
on personal experience or just information you googled. That you
have is that you have to wait a half hour

(15:54):
after you eat to a swimming There you go, you
can eat and have a good workout. I mean, I
wouldn't suggested because your food will get wet. Is that
that's just what a thing moms tell you? Because I think, so, yeah,
why you have fun immediately? Right? It is basically where
where did that come from? I think it's maybe to
justify the adult swims that would happen at public pools,

(16:17):
that public pools used to be a much bigger thing,
and yeah, you had to get the kids out of
the pools, like enjoy it. You're right, this is what
I found it. A myth was that while you're digesting,
all your blood will be diverted away from your arms
and legs towards your stomach's digestive tract, and if your
limbs don't get enough blood flow, then you're at risk
of drowning. Yeah, no, I've heard that. I got the justification.

(16:39):
It's just what was the like big lifeguard? Was that?
Who was behind it? Who caused a big lifeguard. It
might have been also an attempt to make sure kids
peed before they went to the pool. Right, So if
you just had some sort of liquid, I'd love to
find like the person behind it, Like it wasn't about
that man follow the money. He's a lifeguard who lost

(17:04):
ten right after lunch. He got in his arms. Like,
but I do remember, like I grew up thinking that,
like I would like throw up and drown if I
had got in the pool like a half had. Like
I really thought that that was like a firm cut
off and always stuck by it until today. And now Laura,

(17:26):
you have freed me. All right, let's get into the
events of the day. We're trying to take a sample
of what people are thinking and talking and doing about
today and breaking news when we're recording this, presumably not
when you're listening to it. ABC this morning canceled Roseanne

(17:49):
after they looked up racism in the dictionary and they're like, oh,
this this matches. I guess So what what brother tweet
this morning? She went on like a rip. First, she
came at Chelsea Clinton for like suggesting that maybe she
was related to a family member of George Soros, like
that old right wing, that the boogeyman that they loved

(18:12):
to to conjure. I didn't know a single liberal who's
ever met George Soros. The only time I hear of
him is via Fox News and people with conspiracy here. Yeah,
he's so I don't even know if he exists to
be but again, sure, dude, he's from the Holocaust. I
just don't know. You've met liberals who have met I've

(18:33):
met I've only met actors exactly. So yeah, she came
at him and Chelsea Clinton was like, just for your information,
my middle name is not Soros, it's Victoria. Like it
was very kind, It's like, but thank you. And then
Rosanne was like, well, you don't know during the Holocaust,
like he was selling out Jewics to the not. So
that was the beginning. Then there was like a thing
someone who tweeted something about Valeri Jared was a former

(18:55):
Obama aide, and underneath this Twitter thread she replied Muslim
brotherhood and Planet of the Apes had a baby equals
v J, which Valley Jarrett's initials. So she did the
time honored anti black racist thing of comparing black people
to apes. Uh, and then some and then throwing some
Islamophobia in there, just just to top it off. And
then afterwards, I think clearly because the Internet blew up

(19:18):
at her and was like what the fun is going on? ABC?
Everyone was telling ABC to cancel it. She had like
an apology where she said, oh, it's like a joke
and bad taste, and I regret talking about her politics
and her looks. And sure, but for someone who thinks
they're so smart that they can see the deep state
and comment ping pong and all these other q and
on and all these deep conspiracies, you don't. You can't

(19:38):
even tell the difference between racism and a bad joke.
So I regret commenting on her looks is like suggesting
that I don't know. It's not like I regret evoking
the deep seated racism of you know, just horrible white supremacy.
It's like, yeah, my bad for being superficial in my
comments that were why el racist annoys me that she

(20:02):
used the construct of a great roast joke is where
you are you know A plus B? Yeah, yeah, they
had a baby, and then she just picked imagery that
was very racist and went that way. And and then
it's like, oh, it's just a bad joke, and yes,
it was a very bad, bad racist It was a

(20:23):
lazy joke and a racist joke and to not understand
the history behind right and but that's where you go.
You know that was racist because you were you You
were making a racist comment to get your fellow racists
excited about your quote unquote joke, and we all know
what's going on. So afterwards, everyone was like criticizing ABC
because they had really not said anything, and then a

(20:43):
few hours later they said, okay, season three canceled. Wanted
to Psykes tweeted pretty quickly, it's like, I will not
be returning to the Rosanne show us. I think she's
a consulting producer. So she did that first and then
ABC canceled. Yeah yeah, I mean I think this is
going to create a lot of debate because Roseanne was
very popular, and you know, the right mega heads like

(21:07):
are going to say this is PC culture, run amock.
I would just say that I think ABC should keep
the show. They need to valerie this ship. There was
an e D sitcom called Valerie, and the lead actress,
the titular Valerie, went into negotiations in the off season

(21:29):
and was harper right, I think so yeah from Mary
Telly More Yes, and they were like, oh, you are
going to be difficult with us, Well, screw you, We're
gonna just kill your character off. And the next season
it became the Hogan Family and the first episode was
I remember this because it was Jason Bateman was one

(21:49):
of the sons, and he came in with like a
piece of burnt metal from her car that she had
died in and made a joke about the he's already
however from his grief. Well, they're already doing sitcom jokes
about mom being dead. And then they just moved on
without skipping a beat. Uherfect, I mean, she came after

(22:12):
Valerie Jarrett, so why not validate her? Just Valerie this ship?
When Roseanne said said VJ. Now if she had meant
Victoria Jackson, would we all be having this comment now?
We'd be like, you know what, and I'd be like,
what's wrong with your eyes? Right? And white? Looking that? Ridge?
I'm sorry? Do we do we have a disconnect on
what looks like? Yeah? But it's also this is just

(22:35):
capitalism and that's it yea. And it's a shame too,
because I think the woman who is the head of
programming ABC is a woman of color to even signed
off on Roseanne coming Back and things like that. So
I think, yeah, put in a very tough spot because
I think most people were like, you have to do
something if you're ABC, your Disney, Like is this what
Disney believes to? But yeah, again, the other thing that

(22:56):
I noticed too, I forget what you webs. I think
think progress sort of aggregated how many media outlets just
sort of obscured the fact that it was racist by
describing it in every single way except using the word
racism or racist comments like her tweet or the show, no,
the this tweet, this specific moment this morning about her
tweets at Valerie Jarrett. They were like some people were

(23:17):
like she waded into racial waters, was one Fox News tweeted.
Roseambar quits Twitter after offending with statements about Chelsea Clinton.
Former Obama aid Valerie Jarrett that was just it just
offending them. Washington posts had racially charged. So you know, again,
I think this kind of speaks to the culture that
we're in now, where a lot of conservatives get up

(23:37):
in arms when racism is described for what it is,
and they're like, just again, the PC culture run a
muck thing and the same thing too when people sort
of begin to fear the backlash of you know, actually
calling out bad ideas for what they are and the
right maybe spinning it as, oh, this is suppression of
thought or whatever. I mean, if yes, you made a
terribly racist comment, let's call that racism when I say,

(24:00):
waited into racial waters, like yeah, yeah, I mean, I'm
sure it's in her contract that she's not allowed to
be racist on Twitter. Of course, Yeah, it's got to be.
They they must have thought about this, and she was
just you know, uh, thinking she was big enough and
the show had done well enough that she could just
do this. But I'm honestly not even kidding about the

(24:20):
Valerie thing. There's so much talent involved with that show
that's not her. And so you're saying, if Roseanne were
to die and from opioid addiction, exactly because because she
they already set up her opid addiction. It's great to
have a show about a you know, socio economic bracket
that is like rarely depicted in mainstream pop culture. Uh,

(24:42):
and yeah, a lot of those people are dealing with
opioid addiction and people passing away from opioid addiction, and
you know, maybe they could use some laughs. You could
call it instead of Roseanne, you could call it Roseanne
I p R I p R I P in peace
and also and also would be mocking her that, like

(25:02):
we have your I P now, Yeah, yeah, we have
your name property. Yeah. All right, We're gonna take a
quick break. We'll be right back, and we're back, and
we wanted to give a quick sports update. It was

(25:23):
a big sports weekend, bad sports day yesterday for the
gop Ted Cruise go funk yourself at the Rockets head
one of the more embarrassing losses. At one point, they
missed seven straight threes. This is a team that has
openly tempted the gods by being like, yeah, all we

(25:45):
do is shoot threes and layups. That's all we do.
And it's they died by the three horrifically. But prior
to the game, old Ted Ted Word was there Courts
and he's apparently a huge fan of the round ball,
huge basketball fan, as we know Ted Cruz. I mean,

(26:06):
he made an appearance I think during the primaries in Indiana,
you know, one of the great basketball states Central and
referred to I believe. I mean, Jack, you know a
little bit more about basketball than I do. The thing
that it goes into is called a basketball hoop, yeah,
or the basket basket or a or a rim, but

(26:27):
I think Ted Cruz called it a basketball ring. But
let's look, I mean my ears made to see you
might you might have missed. You know. The amazing thing
is that basketball ring. Nope, here in Indiana it's the
same height as it is in New York City and
every other place in this country. That sounds familiar and
there is nothing that Hoosiers cannot do. Cool fucking And

(26:53):
then superproducer Nick Stuff pointed out that he may have
just not may he was just ripping off the movie
Hoosiers when he said that he stole that from the
like if Indiana had a state movie, right, So, I mean,
maybe it was just a reference. But the one thing
that Hoosiers definitely didn't do call the basketball hoop a
basketball ring. In that clip, It's funny because you see

(27:15):
a woman like as he gestures to the rim when
he says ring, she looks over like, what is ring? Yeah? Yeah, boxing?
They fight inside a ring, right exactly, But there's no
basketball to ring The best thing was in the championship
ring head. The Rockets will not be getting now thanks
to you and your fucking tweet that cursed them. Uh.

(27:38):
He's done it before, though he did before an Astro's
game he tweeted. This time, he tweeted a clutch city,
which is like the exact opposite of what happened. And
now we have another Warriors Calves Finals. This is the
fourth year in a row, four years in a row,
that has never happened in the history of the NBA, NFL, NHL,
Major League Baseball. There's never been the same team's meeting

(28:01):
four years in row in the championship game. Um. And
it's almost a foregone conclusion that the Warriors are going
to win at this point. Uh. And it sucks. So yeah,
we really needed the Rockets to pull that of here
from northern California. Are you a Oakland Warriors fan? But

(28:24):
I'm just tired of watching men do things, so I've
sorted backed off of those kind of sports. But I
will tell you that. Uh. And just to contribute to
the Ted Cruise conversation, he's the most sexually repellent man
um I could think of on top of me and
do you guys remember the debate where he had food
in his mouth in the corner. Yes, it is so

(28:47):
sickening and when I think of it, I just get
disgusted inside and my vagina titans closed, it closes up.
So um that's my that's your take on Ted Cruise, Yes,
and the NBA. Yeah, everything w NBA. Also yesterday, what
else happened to uh Rudolph Giuliani, the man who are

(29:10):
we are seeing just descend into senility before our eyes
as he defends the president. He was at Yankee Stadium
on Memorial Day to celebrate his seventy four birthday. And
you know, he's a kind of a figure and he's
a lifelong honorary Yankee. I mean that city loves Rudy Giulian.
They still call their delicious tap water Rudy juice, or

(29:31):
at least they did ten years ago. Really, I've never
heard that. That's where my sister called it. She's like
a cool New Yorker. New Yorker talk. Did he make
the water battery? Tapwater kind of improved under him? And
so I didn't know that Rudy juice. Well, see, I'm
sure they remember those things like and also how he
led the city out of nine and leveragings like that.
He can't squander all of that good faith, right, Yeah,

(29:54):
well despite everything he's done. So check this out. This
is during the Yankee game when they're going around announcing
people's birthdays and they get to Rudy Giuliani and the
crowd erupts, so, yeah, happy birthday. They've been kind of

(30:19):
smile and that guy's boy. He probably thought Bruce Springsteen
just walked in. Yeah, they're saying rude. I wish there
was footage of what his reaction was, Like, I wonder
if he got up and took his hat off and
was like, yeah, thank you, Oh they're booing, took his
teeth out, and just uh. Good sports weekend also for

(30:40):
America because Boston lost and Lebron confirmed as at least
the second best in NBA history. I don't know, do
you think Michael Jordan is the best? Yeah? Probably, I
don't know. And it's tough because somebody had a tweet
over the weekend. I think it was Logan Trent from
Cracked who tweeted something about like how it's different, we

(31:01):
should just have different eras of the best ever, because
like Bill Russell was the goat in his era. They
won like thirty championships in a row, like an annoying
number of championships in a row. But he would not
be the best ever today, And I don't even think
Jordan would be the best ever. Kareem was the best
in his time that he actually listed. That's funny that

(31:24):
you say that because he listed Bill Russell, Kareem, Jordan's
and then Lebron and Kareem was the controversial one. I
was like, Kareem magic not yeah, no magic really Yeah,
he went Kareem right to MJ. I would have gone
magic in between anyways. So, yeah, happy offseason to Boston. No,

(31:45):
I'm just saying happy offseason. You guys had a great
season and that was adorable when Jayson Tatum dunked on Lebron. Yeah,
you come at the King, you know the rest. Uh So,
Also speaking of Boston, there was a Harvard study that's,
you know, horrifying, but confirms what I think we have
speculated about here on the Daily ZYKEI. So they looked

(32:09):
into the number of deaths that are attributable to Hurricane
Maria and Puerto Rico and have come up with a
number slightly above the sixty four that the Trump administration
had thrown out there. Uh, they were only about like
seventy five times off. Yes, Uh, it's four thousand, six
hundred is the number of deaths that Harvard is saying over.

(32:32):
Four thousand, six hundred is the number of deaths that
Harvard UH says are attributable to the hurricane. So just
to put that in perspective, because I think in the
aftermath of a lot of these superstorms, people were referring
back to Katrina and saying, you know, at least this
isn't as bad as Katrina. Uh. And the death toll

(32:54):
of Katrina was one thousand, eight hundred and thirty three
across all the and uh, Puerto Rico, They're they're thinking
four thousand, six d um. And that dropped Bush's approval
rating into like the twenties. UH. Caused Kanye West to

(33:14):
say something really smart. Uh. And the fact that it's
in more slow motion this time, and that, like with Katrina,
was like five days of just the government fucking up,
and here it's been months and months of of complete neglect. UH.
And also presumably the fact that it's brown people who
speak a different language who can't vote, right, who can't vote?

(33:37):
But clearly that is something is making a difference because uh,
this is not the defining story of the year like
Katrina was, or maybe the country is more racist than
it was back then. But I think we're just not
really treating this as a story of Americans are being
left to perish in an unnecessary way. Like when you

(33:58):
look at it, a third of those deaths were preventable
in the sense that people perish because of the latter
interrupted medical care. So that's people who have had medical
treatments that to get a hospitals or diabetics or things
like that, Like those are just things like as your
infrastructure crumbles and you don't address those, people are very
vulnerable and they yeah, they would naturally be at risk
to to die unnecessarily, do you And also it's an island.

(34:21):
Do you think if the same thing happened to Hawaii?
You know is say, what the Lavast situation gets way
way worse and there's that many deaths and why do
you think this government would have the same I don't
give a ship. Because people can vote in elections, those
people can vote for president, but they always vote Democrat. Yeah, well, yeah,
but I'm sure at the same time, I don't think
they're calculus is just is that blatant We're like, oh, well,

(34:43):
they can't vote, they don't care. I think it's just
sort of less of a priority for the people who
are putting in the aid. I'd imagine that any bona
fide state would get proper response from the government. And
I think because uh, port Rigo is a commonwealth, they
just feel like it. It's sort of like people just
have this weird thing. I think a lot of people

(35:03):
were reminded, especially in the immediate aftermath of the hurricane,
that they're like, remember, Puerto Ricans are American citizens who
are like that need to be treated with the same
dignity that we care for people in Louisiana or Florida
or Hawaii, California, what have you. So I think that's
what makes it exceptionally, you know, troubling, because it seems
like for the longest time, the people on the ground

(35:23):
in Puerto Rico were waving their hands saying hello, like
we have real problems here, and I think, yeah, because
they're on an island too. I think it's even easier
for people in the media, for us here on the
mainland or whatever to sort of be like, oh, yeah,
that's right, Puerto Rico. But I think this is something,
hopefully that will spur some kind of change. I mean,
I know there are a lot of people going over

(35:45):
there from Congress to try and like talk to the
people and say like, hey, we care about you. I
don't I don't represent you, but I want you to
know I'm trying to do something for you despite the
utter lack of effective response, because I was I was
just kind of looking and comparing the two sort of
responses and scandals Katrina and Maria. And you know, Bush

(36:07):
at the time told FEMA they did a good job
and that was a huge scandal because they obviously clearly
fucked it up, and you know, he backed away from that,
and that was considered a huge blunder. Trump like in
the immediate aftermath of Maria was telling people of Puerto
Rico that the responders can't stay there forever and that

(36:27):
they like created a terrible financial situation for themselves, and
just like I wonder if there's like a shamelessness, like
he almost steers into the swerve like so much that
it's just like you can't even fucking comprehend of how
horrible like it is, and it's just it just explodes

(36:48):
like paint by numbers. Neo like conservative like thinking is
brown people who need help are leeches on the system. Yes,
so it's like, oh, yeah, look, we can't. We can't
be here the whole time to help you get that
going to feed him once. At some point those bootstraps
gotta kick in, and yourself probably wants to put a
wall around Puerto Rican. He just wants to take a

(37:08):
couple of slick jump shots with the paper towels, get
the photo of and then be like, all right, missions, mission,
mission accomplished. Yes. We we also as a nation may
have had uh like catastrophe fatigue under the Bush administration.
We're nine eleven, which was preventable, and Katrina, which was
not preventable, but definitely we could have done a much

(37:28):
better job. Some kind of barrier has been broken and
now we're like, oh, this thing happens to us every year. Maybe.
And also I think right from the election, Trump forty
or more of the population was so unacceptable that this
is just the thing where you're like Jesus Christ, whereas

(37:49):
Bush was you know, people were infuriated that he that
the Supreme Court gave him the election, but at least
just like, well, he was a governor and we know
his dad, and so he seemed a lot more legitt
So when he kept the second term of screw ups,
it maybe turned the five percent of the population that
was like, well, what can he do? I think people

(38:10):
just need to take the immutable truth of it all
is American people died, and there was a terrible response,
and many of those deaths were preventable. And I think
that's the conversation. I think that's a conversation that needs
to be had more of sort of like we need
to look at FEMA, We need to look at the
government's response and like really ask for like real answers here,
Like there needs to be like investigation and whole people

(38:32):
accounting in Puerto Rican needs to have a voice in Congress.
Absolutely they don't. There's some Puerto Rican American Congress people,
but they don't represent Puerto Rico. They don't. Yeah, there's
also the fact that they have politicized literally everything to
the point that I'm sure they're going to look at
this report and be like, oh, that's just you know,

(38:52):
the liberal media, because I mean, in the aftermath of
the hurricane, the way the media was covering it, being like, man,
and there's really a lot of people without power. He
was like, Oh, that's just the liberal media trying to
It's a combination of things. But I also think it
is that things have just become so politicized that part
of the Trump administration's overall goal has been to create

(39:14):
a world and this is exactly Russia's propaganda strategy. Create
a world where there are no objective truths, so that
you can't never you can't be wrong because there are
no objective truths, and people's minds are just exhausted. And
I think it's worked. But yeah, people need to think.
If you're getting so up in arms about people fucking

(39:35):
taking a need to draw attention to police violence as
they're disrespecting the flag, well what about the disrespect to
these American citizens. They're not inanimate objects, you know, they're
human beings too. So all right, we're gonna take another
quick break and then we'll be back to close things out.

(40:00):
And we're back, and we wanted to talk about a
Twitter thread that is now turning into a a couple
of mainstream media outlets are picking it up. Uh it's
this story that hundred children were lost by the US government.
Uh in the aftermath of crossing the border. Basically, Um,

(40:21):
and it seems like the story is so so the
person who wrote this Twitter thread is somebody is a
lawyer who kind of works in these circles and has
a lot of lawyer friends who are specifically working on
you know, children who come across the border unaccompanied and
need to you know, be supervised as they're released to

(40:43):
family members. And um, the thread is basically saying that
that story is mistaking the idea that government immigration officials
are not immediately able to locate these kids with them
completely losing the kids. Um. Essentially, this government branch that

(41:06):
o r R, which is the Office of Refugee Resettlement,
takes these kids, puts them with either family members or friends, uh,
you know, whoever they think is going to look out
for the children's best interest, never like a stranger, like
they're not just like actually putting them out there on
the street, and then like ups, we turned around and
they're not there anymore, there with family, there with friends.

(41:28):
And then the idea that they lost track of them
is just that they then try to reach out to
check in on them and are not able to contact
those kids. And the point that this lawyer is making
is that these children haven't gone missing. A lot of
times they are with family who you know, don't necessarily

(41:49):
want them to be contacted by immigration authorities or don't
themselves want to be contacted by immigration authorities because uh,
you know, O R are the people who are having
trouble acking these kids down, work hand in hand with
ICE and with I C. And are you know immigration
authorities who are the same people who are separating children

(42:11):
from family members and stuff. So the idea, it's I
think people associated this with the story that ICE and
other immigration officials are separating parents and children, and they're like,
and then we're losing those children. That's not what's happening.
And in fact, you know, by focusing on the idea
that these children have gone missing, it almost suggests that

(42:35):
the O r R should be keeping closer tabs on
the children and be like less likely to release them
to family members and friends. And so it's just a
misleading story that kind of got away from I think
the New York Times and AP, according to Snopes, were
the first outlets to really report on this, and it
got conflated with the story of I see separating parents

(43:00):
from children, which is happening and which is a terrible story,
but the lost kids is actually misleading. And also it's
either benign or it's almost kind of harmful to say
that those kids got lost, because then our might be
more likely to you know, keep those children in custody

(43:23):
and less likely to release them to people who presumably
have their best interests in mind, more so than uh,
I C. E and O are or the immigration or
at les we're talking point, it's like, oh, well, if
we need to find these kids, and it's like even
stricter enforcement, like just like literally trying to look for
these kids and more you know, probably more deportations at

(43:46):
the very least. I'm sure people who are hardline immigration
people they don't they don't mind this conflation of stories
because then that that allows them to sort of operate
in this thing of like, yeah, you see that we
got to really keep tabs on these people, and it
will probably deter people from actually seeking asylum here because
these are the kinds of stories they hear and they're like,
oh my god, like this this really might not be

(44:07):
the place to come. So, uh, that's a good explainer,
you guys. Yeah, we were guilty too of completing because
we saw and were like holy shit. But then, like anything,
experts coming hold on, hold on. PBS did have a
headline that they were being being given to sex traffickers,
so I think there were some people that were But again,

(44:28):
these were all kinds of stories that were being that
were overlapping each other in the same general area, and
we're like, oh, this is this is the you know,
this is the broad stroked story of about this. There
is a horrifying story of ice and immigration authorities separating
children from their parents and you know, uh, keeping their

(44:48):
parents in custody, and uh that that's a story that
everybody needs to follow keep an eye on. It's fucking
horrible what's happening um on. But it's just we should
also keep track of the children being lost. It's just
a thing where you should know what the act, what

(45:09):
that means functionally. Yeah, it's not that they were misplaced
at the same I think she used the metaphor of
sort of like you know, once a prisoners released from
a prison, prison doesn't go oh, we lost this prisoner
because we came to custody or whatever, right exactly. But yeah,
the other thing too is Donald Trump used you know,
there was also this report by the a c l
U which was about a lot of abuses that was

(45:31):
happening to migrant kids. That was that we're being held
by customs and border enforcement in the Obama administration, and
a lot of like liberal activists were mistakenly tweeting images saying,
look what Trump's doing to these kids. But it turned
out this was during Obama's administration, and he sort of
took that to spin his whole immigration policy to frame
it on the Democrats, because he tweeted, He's like put

(45:52):
pressure on the Democrats to and the horrible law that
separates children from their parents once they crossed the border
and into the US. Like, whoa, this is your poloshy. Yeah,
and they're not in power. You you need to put
pressure on your own people and yourself. But he this
is your idea. But this was a perfect Trump to tweet.
He didn't know the difference between there and the possessive there. Uh.

(46:14):
And also you brought up the wall and of course
thirteen so you know theres he has ghostwriters on some
of his tweets misspell stuff, right, it's true. Yeah, the
New York Times. Yeah, yeah, that's amazing like that. I
think that he gets to blend in with his idiot tweets.
So they give him like three options and then he's like,

(46:35):
which one do you like? Like, okay, that one and
then boom. And also he never physically tweets. He dictates
his tweets Gavino to dance or whoever, which makes him
a dictator. Wow, which sound the alarm? Sorry? I did

(46:58):
want to say. The Twitter thread is from a lawyer
named Josie Duffy Rice or Josie Duffy Rice. Uh, people
should follow her. She tweets a lot of really interesting
stuff on this subject and thoroughly explained the mistake that
we were all making. Yes, and we're going to try
and have her on at some point, but I'm sure

(47:19):
she is being just drowning media requests right now. So
from maybe like five years yeah, yeah, exactly, not a
second rate one right, second to third rate. Uh, we're
trying to get to second right. Uh wait, does she
know you have that air horn sound? She did? Would
that move you up in her eyes? I guess yeah,

(47:39):
in any correspondence, it'll just have to be an audio.
Hell yeah, you make a good one. That was George
de Kay all right. And we do like to check
in with the box office here and there because movies

(48:01):
do create a lot of these myths and misconceptions that
we talked about. Um And this past weekend there was
a big release. The Star Wars universe had another chapter
uh released out into the world. It is the movie
Solo Story. Uh, Miles, you saw it. You I paid

(48:24):
twenty dollars to see fucking nonsense. Okay, I'm kind of
I mean, truth be told. I'm I'm a huge Star
Wars fan, so I have different reactions. And I don't
think Star Wars is one of those films that, again,
no one can have a real objective opinion on, because
you bring your own emotional baggage into every Star Wars movie,
depending on what the franchise meant in your relationship with
your father exactly. Mine is terrible. So whenever they don't

(48:49):
touch on this, I get incense. But yeah, it was
so they don't touch on you and your dad. I'm like, Yo,
they didn't mention my dad by name is bullshit. But
I still keep coming back, you know, because I keep
thinking Lando might be anyway, but yeah, I mean solo.
I don't know. It felt like a film that clearly
had a lot of script changes, director changes, and it

(49:11):
just was a little like wonky. I mean there's I
talked to some people were like, oh, I felt it
was fine, but these are kind of more casual Star
Wars people who just don't who aren't like just outraged
by everything. And I wasn't outraged. I just and it
was not even that it was like bad. It just
fell flat and it didn't It didn't even capture sort
of like the magic of Star Wars, even like all
the other films to me have but like this one

(49:34):
just felt really flat and I was a little disappointed
by that. Now I don't know, people on Twitter can
come at me and explain why blah blah blah. But
Myles was playing it cool. When I asked him what
he thought of the movie, he literally spit on the floor.
Spit on the floor, yes, and then I peed myself,
but know it making unbreaking eye contact with the whole time. Yeah,

(49:57):
it just felt it's just a nice concrete floors. Yeah
we have? Is that why you went to the space.
That's why Miles can't control himself when he's angry. So
we need and I've been I can only wear jogger
pants because they're tied around the ankle, so it just
fills up my pants and won't go into the floor.
But so in terms of box office performance, the movie

(50:18):
was was below expectations in America. It's still broke a
hundred million, but still far below expectations. I think they
were hoping for something closer to like one or so
on um, and it absolutely tanked in China, which is
a trend we're starting to see in Star Wars movies. Yeah,

(50:40):
it's I think people. I think it's a combination of
the fact that the original trilogy didn't really penetrate, didn't
really get into the Chinese like shared cultural touchstones. Turns
out they have their own mythology right old right exactly.

(51:01):
And they also, uh, they're not great with ghosts, and
there's a lot of like forced ghosts and ship and
uh in the Star Wars movies, and I think i've
heard that also pointed to as a reason. There's just
just don't care and they're they're not connected to the
franchise like they are in the U s or parts
of Europe or even Japan, you know, like Japan. Like

(51:23):
I think Revenge of the Sith is like one of
the all time like the greatest openings in like Japanese
episode three. Okay, that just shows you, like people are
bad over there. But it makes sense because there's more
of a cultural connection between Japan and America. Yeah, they
stole the entire aesthetic from Curs movies, and Jedi is
based off the word jediyaki, So I mean, yeah, there's

(51:44):
a lot of stuff that world mere literally translates to
era drama. So for like most people, these are like
samurai era like period draf So yeah, that's why I
think from there, George Lucas is like, oh, I like this,
Like it's all about sort of the same thing. You're
using swords, but future swords, and it's very honorable and
you know, there's like this very defined warrior culture. So yeah,

(52:06):
so interesting. Do you think if they had an Asian
lead that would help in China? Well, in the last
Jedi they had a main character or a woman, right, yeah, yeah,
young woman whose name I'm drawing a blank. Wait and
no, no no, no, I think in Rogue one one they
had I think Donnie Yen in it, and then yeah,

(52:28):
but also Last Jedi when they had who's the guy
who played the blind Jedi? He's blind? Um uh, he's
been on a he's a Broadway star. Uh. God, John,
I can't remember his last name. He's Asian American and
he was like two Star Wars ago. He played a

(52:50):
blind Jedi in the marketplace. The scene is just coming
to me. I think that's Rogue one. Okay, maybe the
I didn't see them in the proper orders. I saw
it on a plane. Yeah, that was that was three ago.
Was actually the best place to see Oh yeah, that's
the way that they intend those movies to be seen. Yes, yes,

(53:14):
not four inch screen like three on a horribly scratched
DVD while you're marching on blue chips. Yeah. Um, but yeah.
I can also like, if you look at So the
Force Awakens, I feel like was the least reliant on
previous sort of mythology, and that's the one that did
the best in China. I think it also did the

(53:35):
best in America. And then Last Jedi, I feel it
was there's so much Luke Skywalker and if you're not
into the original trilogy. He's an annoying character. He's like
not cool, He's just whining the whole time, like a
lot of stuff. He's like the Uni bomber, he's just
living alone in a shock. Yeah, and uh, this movie,

(53:58):
the entire premise for seeing it is like looking at
Han solo origin story. So I think that explanation holds
a lot of because there's a lot of winks to
like the backstory of Han Solo that we've seen through
the Harrison Forward character that I'm sure if you just
went in to be like, oh, let's see this movie
with no real connection to you, be like huh okay.
But whereas movies like from the Marvel Cinematic Universe have

(54:22):
done very well in China, and you know, because those
are all self referential, but they're self self referential within
a universe that has been created within the last like
ten fifteen years. Oh yeah, if you're just going strictly
off the movies right yet, right like you you don't
have to have been familiar with a separate generation of
work to give a ship essentially, Um, So we'll see

(54:46):
if this changes, you know, I I for one, am
concerned for Disney. I mean those guys need to catch
a break. But well, we'll see if this changes how
they think about you know, their released strategy of one
Star Wars a year. But Disney's their new hit show
Rosanne seems to be doing well. Yeah, because I mean

(55:07):
that's the thing everyone got to congress from the president damn.
But yeah, I think the question was like are people
getting Star Wars fatigue? And that might be the case,
I don't know, or like also, this just sounds objectively
like a movie that had a very rough go and
production and was kind of fucked up. Stop making fucking prequels.

(55:27):
Maybe that maybe stop making prequels. The Land movie, Oh
that they making a Lando movie that was that was
the thing. Yeah, they're going to have I think the
Land get Donald Glover ring there. It's just when when
you know specifically like how that character is going to die,
maybe that's the problem. It's just like you know exactly
where it ends for this person, so like what's the

(55:49):
dramatic tension. Well, I mean, if it's a great movie,
people will see it, right that. I think the problem
is it's not being reviewed as a great movie. Think
about Godfather too. They had that whole prequel thing that
movie sucks. Nobody likes that. Around with three saved it it, Laurie,

(56:10):
It's been a pleasure having you. Where can people find you?
See you, follow you? I'm on Twitter as any Laurie
sixteen because I guess any Laurie was taken when you
were sixty Any Laurie one anywhere, very first system. I
just wrote a book called Dead People Suck and it's

(56:30):
a comedy about hospice and cancer and funerals and a parent.
So if that's in your life, you might enjoy that.
And uh and what was your first New York Times bestseller?
That's called Shitty Mom. Yeah, I am buying that where
my wife soon? Not that she's a shitty mom, but
it's how to get away with Yeah, yeah, yeah, that

(56:50):
sounds including leaving your child in a car for a
second just to run into seven eleven arrested. Yeah for
eleven you can see through the window exactly, yes, yes, yes.
And if you just like put a blanket over your
baby and you're just running in to get coffee, you
can't take a baby out. It's just a pain and
they have to get them out of the chair at
a single time. I help my friend with a baby,

(57:13):
get her baby and car seat. I'm like, you couldn't
pay me to do this, suck. It'll make your life
a lot better if you figure out these little things.
Also the blanket, let's and anybody if they look in
they're like nothing going on, Like yeah, exactly, Yeah, it's
a moving pile of laundry. Yeah, you're on your way
to the laundry goes. It's a magical crying pile of
laundry to get Miles. Yes, how's it going? Man? Oh?

(57:37):
I'm great. Where can people find you? You can follow
me on Twitter and Instagram at Miles of Gray. You
can find me at Jack Underscore O'Brien on Twitter. You
can find us at Daily Zeyegeist on Twitter. We're at
the Daily Zeitegeist on Instagram. We have a Facebook fan page.
We have a website Daily zich geist dot com where
we post our episodes in our footnotes where we link
off to the information that we talked about in today's episode.

(58:01):
That's gonna do it for today, Miles. We also link
off to the song that we ride out, what is
that going? Well? Okay, So this isn't like a cut,
this is more of like to get people up to
the zeitgeist. This is more zeitgeist think, so push it
to one half of the group clips you might remember
from the early two thousand's for grinding him a runaway, Yes,

(58:23):
and just push the you know, like a prolific cocaine rapper.
We like we talked about his cocaine raps because he
talks a lot about dealing cocaine and the intricacies dealing cocaine.
So he over the week or on Friday, put on
album called Daytona produced by Kanye West. An album is
pretty good despite the producer that he worked with being
a total ship head. Uh. And what happened was there's
a track on there called Infrared where he takes a

(58:44):
shot at Drake, the prolific Canadian rapper Aubrey Graham uh
and says basically alludes to his use of a ghost
writer by the name of Quentin Miller, And basically it's
kind of like, oh, you don't even write your own verse,
like really low level? Can you write these wrongs if
you don't write your own song? Oh, that's a hot take.
And then so you know Drake kind of uh, you know,

(59:05):
he's also a good rapper. It turns out he put
out a response track called Duppy Freestyle. Now I'm led
to believe that duppy means ghost in the in the
patois there. So in this he basically comes to Push
the T and Kanye West. Basically, Drake definitely got the
better push the T in this and he released it
like a minute after a Push a T dropped his album.

(59:26):
I don't know it came out Friday night. It came
out Friday night. Well know, I think days before at
an album preview party, we found out that there was
a track on there that took shots at Drake because
people on Twitter like, oh whoa, this thing just mentioned
Drake or whatever. So but as we've all seen Drake
as a quick thinker, and he immediately called his ghostwriter

(59:47):
Comedi called his ghost writer for a track called ghost
But yeah, I think this one. Yeah, he definitely he
kind of as yeah the Dragon, we say, he read
him for Phil. Uh. So we'll see what pushes he does.
I don't think he'll do much because he did not
respect its funny because push It cheese. Uh kind of
part is very like vague and sort of makes virtue.

(01:00:10):
He never says Drake's name. He just mentions his ghostwriter
Quinton and uh Drake just comes for him very just
verydingly and directly actually came for his neck. Yes, uh so, yeah,
we're gonna listen to that. It's a pretty good Also,
Daytona is a really good album despite the problematic shitty
album cover that Kanye West had Art Trek a lot

(01:00:32):
of despites, but it's worth listening to. It's I don't know, man,
I fucking hate that guy. Yeah. Anyway, for the reason
why I'm play is the cover of the Daytona thing
is because Push it has a background in cocaine dealing,
so he'll have us believe. It was a picture of
Whitney Houston's bathroom like at the height of a drug addiction,
and a lot of people are like, Yo, what are
you doing? Why is this the album? Like don't kick

(01:00:55):
dirt on her name like that, just to make a
point of like how edgy you are? And again, and
Kanye was like, I did eighty five dollars for that photo.
Good for you, bro, Why you're good at spending money?
All right? Working right out on that. We will be
back tomorrow because it is a daily podcast by so
if you refuse me for working with someone else on
a couple of these. What do you really thinking? And

(01:01:16):
nigger that's making your beats. I've done things for him.
I thought that he never would need. Father had to
stretch his hands out and get it from me. I
pop style for thirty hours, gonna let him repeat. Now
you're popping up with the jokes. I'm dead, I'm asleep.
I just left him over by y'all, putting pen of
the sheets, tied, of sitting quiet and helping my enemies
heat and keep getting temperature checks. They know that my
head overheats. Don't know why the funk you niggas listening

(01:01:37):
denim of Steve must have had your infra red roan
a your head in the beam. Y'all are the spitting
image or whatever. Jealousy breeze. Don't push me when I'm
an album old. You're not even top five as far
as your labeled talent goales. You send shots while I
gotta challenge those. But I bring calicoes to the alla mode.
I could never have a virtual in my circle and
hold him back because he makes me nervous. I want

(01:01:57):

much resembles what's been happening. Lady. Please believe your demands

Kroger working double time, y'all acting like you made the
boy when I was trying to help the guy who
