Like you probably need somebody to like use like some
kind of laser or infrared ship to like nullify the
camera and then you could pull up.

And then you know, or you just have like a
horde of people come up and then circle around it

American cheese on a baby's bald head while they're crying,
it like disrupts.

The judges like these are not cases and lawyers have
some really good explanations that I can't wait.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
First of all, there's no such team as the Spungongos.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
Have you the Yeah? Yeah, is that like up in
Santa Clarita area.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Yeah, it's like a farm sanctuary. I follow all these
rescue farms and they're so sweet and they cuddle cows
and they like I feel like every animal is just
like some version of a puppy, Like like cows are
just like milk pluppies, you know, Turkeys are thingsgiving puppies,
you know, oh you them. No, I don't think I'm vegan. Okay,
(14:52):
now you consume giving puppy. But it's just like puppies
that we haven't like played with yet, you know what
I mean. Like they all have personalities, they all have
individual you know, like individual like emotions and things. You know,
they're just like they all got little things. And so
I really love like rescue farms because it's just like
(15:14):
kind of the misfit toys of animals that get to
all just like live and thrive. And so I'm really
excited to go. I'm gonna go to the gentle barn.

The guys child loves animals and like horses and donkeys
and shit like that. And everyone's like, you gotta take them,
you gotta take them to the gentle farm. And I'm like, yeah,
let me know how it goes. Let me know how.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Yeah, you can do like you can cuddle cows. And
there was this like viral video that went around a
while ago of this woman being like what does it?
It's like like when you when you get like so
like angry because it's something so cute, You're like, I
want to eat your cheek. Cute aggression. Yeah yeah, And
this woman was like, get it all out. You can

Speaker 1 (16:03):
Those cows are like tough guys, are they.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
You're trying to fight a cow at the gentle bar.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
You say, you saying the cow can handle it all.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
At the gentle barn. Are you gonna come in with
that energy to the gentle bar?

Speaker 4 (16:22):
I just want to know.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
I just want to know. I just want to check
how the bill. But oh, that does make sense, because yeah,
those animals are so like I like when I think
they're huge the bait. My baby's like going up to
like a cat or something, but a big ass cow.
I'm like, bro, there's nothing you can do to me, Yeah, except.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
Just want to This is coming from AI over you.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
But I do remember writing about this back of the day,
that cows are responsible for an average of twenty two
human deaths each year.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Okay, but how many humans are responsible for how many
cow deaths?
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Are you?
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Are you trying to tone police and oppressed class in
how they revolt against their oppressor.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Yeah, I'm just saying watch them keeping.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
That's crazy way Jack, You're saying that. So the cows
are claiming twenty two of our human lives a year?
Uh huh Okay, Well I'm just sliggling up the new
stats from twenty twenty three about thirty two point eight
million cattle were slidered in the United States.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
Hold that cows, my gor I know this is not
the feeling coming into this.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
I'm sorry about the milk puppies.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
I thought we were doing the scoreboard thing. I'm too
caught up in sports.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Sorry, race wars with other species.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Victor asked a very good question.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
Can you see that that clip of that little girl
who was like at a rescue farm thing and then
she was like, that's the cheeseburger.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Like that for a long time to connect the food
to the animal. They're like, no, it's not chickens, Like
that's chicken. That's the same same word, but it's for
different things, like that's the food chicken, and those are
like our cute our neighbor's cute chickens.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
I think that's how much are in their brains.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
The deaths are not based on that. They're not like
cheating this victor, but victors like I was just them
choking on steak or whatever, or like having heart attacks
from high and that. If we added that as well
as like their methane admissions, we would be that's it
from the.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Yeah, the cows are like we're playing the.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Long get taking the earth down with us.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
This is like two like small smashings where they're just
like smashing people or like dumb people are like and
cow tipping and then it like just rolls over on
them and they're like dead. Now when people are like
a farm related incident, let's not tell the whole.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
Truth of that one.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Sure, Paula the what's something? He thinks underrated?
Speaker 3 (19:13):
If you guys haven't been watching Paradise on Hulu, Oh
my god, Sterling K. Brown, James Marsden amazing?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Does James Marsden die immediately right away?
Speaker 3 (19:23):
No comment?
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Is he cut before he dies?
Speaker 1 (19:26):
He cut before this?
Speaker 3 (19:28):
James Marsden joint a proper This is a proper James
Marsden joint is it's I can't. I can't. It's too much.
You guys have to you would be so upset. Can
just watch it? It's it's Paradise. It has to do
with the fate of the world, and every episode has
(19:49):
like ten episodes.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Packed into what to do with the fate of You
can't see.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Victor says, don't spoil it. I can't wait.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
What do you mean? Can I not even read like
a description?
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Don't read don't just watch it, go in unspoiled, son't
read a description, don't talk to anyone, don't put up
on Twitter. Just go watch it. It is so good
and more has revealed every episode.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Hey, Apple media assistant, turn on Paradise and then keep
your eyes closed until you start hearing music. Yeah, you're
not allowed to even it is so good.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Like I feel like this is like the Severance team
will also be on this one, you know what I mean,
Like everyone who loves Severance. I feel like you guys
will love Paradise. It's more like action packed because there's
like more crazy shit happening every episode, but there's so
many twists and turns and it's just so well done,
and it also feels like it could actually happen, and
you're like, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
That's why I've been pitching that Severance should be recasting
their main roles with Steven Segal, cloud band Dan Sylvester
as hell, you know, give me out of here?
Speaker 4 (21:03):
All right?
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Well, I don't know, I mean, I guess that's a
pretty intriguing endorsement.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Yeah, especially when this the producer started spamming the chat like, don't.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Even read.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Somebody much, right, it's just I feel like I don't know.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
It's just now that I see the image, I'm like,
oh wait, I am familiar that of what this show is.
But I've only seen the look at the image, don't
look at anything.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
I know I what it is.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
But the log line is very innocuous. I would say
it's not they ain't give it away much.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
It's so good.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Just a secret service team is tasked with Miles.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Now, I'm never gonna watch it.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Oh my god, you ruined everything, Miles. I do. So.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
I feel like it's been a while. I might need
to retire my characterization of James Marsden as like somebody
who gets cucked in movies.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
I think that's like where his career started.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Okay, that's so true. Wait, but enchanted he got he
got cooked.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Yeah, yeah, he got cooked.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
He got cocked in that and the Notebook.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Yeah, the Notebook. He got cooked, Like his character in
the X Men universe got cooked, right, Like that was
like sort of his.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
You know, Psychlisnic He's getting cooked by I needed to
do a little work with the fan fiction to like
get it. There is tugging the fuck out of him.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
No, I love Marston he's so good.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Yeah, yeah, he's great. I mean he was great in
a jury duty too.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Is that what that?
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Yeah? I haven't seen that.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Though he's great.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
What is something you think is overrated?
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Okay, I haven't quite thought this out perfect, and I'm
just it's gonna be like a hot take, mostly because
I wanted to apply to me, but like hating nepotism normally,
I'm like, Okay, I hate nepotism, but like now I
want it to work for me. I'm like, let me
be an EPO. I mean, yeah, I would love you.
Turn around at the Oscars, every other person is an EPO. Baby,
(23:07):
You're like, what how did this? And then all of
the people with like like long standing careers have like family.
In the end, You're just like, oh, this would be
so great if it was if it was me, or
if I used my engineering nepotism and just stayed in
that industry, I'd be so so much.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Further picked up. I know, Yeah, you gonna do it.
Blew my mind when like Harold Parano was like posting
on Instagram was like congratulations to my daughter's best friend
for winning Best Actress last night, and wait, really yeah,
and it's like Harold Parano's daughter, like Mikey Mass He's.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
A Harold Parano is an icon first and lost Romeo
cross Asia.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Scratches. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but yeah he It was just
would to see that too, And it's like clearly like,
oh my god, so like everybody is it?
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Is it like the reverse of like on TikTok when
people are like I did it, like the the twenty
three in me and my grandfather is a serial killer.
It's like the opposite, like the old people are outing
the young people for being related to them.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
So how did Adrian and Brody come back from that
SNL thing where he did the rasta accent like he
married the person who's the expert on getting someone uncanceled?
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Oh he did. Who's wait, who's his wife.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Is Harvey Weinstein's ex wife?
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Oh my god, I total sense for him sexually assaulting
halle Berry and also working with Woody Allen and Roman Polanska.
Like Jesus Christ, I hate Adrian Barrody so much.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
She's got a great, great judge of character, it seems yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
Mean she she's like, he has a terrible character And
I love.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
That, and I love that and I love that about him.
When I saw him do that rasta mand bit, I
was heart eyes, Harvey, I'm gonna snitch on you because
I found my new husband.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be
right back.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
And we're back.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
And this is this is an era of no responsibility.
But like I I either because maybe there is some
you know, the remnants of some responsibility and consequences left
to the bottom of the ketchup bottle. Or maybe it's
just like a vestigial, you know, reflex of people being like.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Don't look at me, but I just I just started
working here.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
But yeah, but Mega and Elon Musk both seemed to
be trying to be like, not us, was it?
Speaker 1 (25:53):
It's not my fault? Why are you aead at me?
I think that, yeah, exactly?
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Or Brodi, we need that accent.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
A lot of people talking about how the twenty fourteen
Obama White House correspondence dinner was the start of all
this talking shit to Trump. I think it was the
Shaggy song.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
I think it was money, you know what I mean.
But look, I think we're all well aware of the
awful shit that the regime is doing in regards to
basic rights and the economy, and well, it's clear to us,
the not shitty people of America, that these things are
bad and should not be tolerated. But like as MAGA
(26:35):
voters begin to openly question if all this bad shit
they are seeing Trump and Musk do is actually bad.
We see how like the media again does their job
on the right wing to train them into believing that
bad is not bad. That you're seeing this is actually
just pret good is what you're experiencing.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
It's critical thinking back, is that so bad?
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Almost almost so? For starters right. One of the big
questions I think from a lot of people in MAGO
world is like, well, who the fuck is responsible for
all this shit? I just lost my job?
Speaker 2 (27:13):
Yeah, I lost my job.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
Contracts are being canceled. The outlook on you know, agricultural
expert exports looks Memphis bleak, to put it lightly, And
a lot of the response after the State of the
Union was that Trump did fuck all to convince anyone
that things will get better in any measurable way, And
people are just left with just kind of like, what
the so what are we supposed to think here? Because
(27:36):
you did all this stuff and you promised us day
one price drops but it's not happening. So here's Larry
Kudlow on Fox Business telling people it's like, look, I
know all the indicators and data say things are bad, okay,
but it just trusts me. This is it's not bad.
It's pretty good.
Speaker 8 (27:53):
The GDP now tracker from the Atlanta Fed is showing,
i mean, for the first quarter a minus two and
a half or minus two point eight percent, and we've
had lousy numbers on things like housing and business investment.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
My generic point here.
Speaker 8 (28:10):
With respect to affordability and the economy is we're gonna
have to suffer through some bad news. This is nothing
to do with Trump. Trump's programs not in yet. And
I got people on the left who are blaming Trump.
How can you blame Trump when he wasn't president when
these seeds were planted.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
You couldn't be more right about that because we've only
been here thirty plus days.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
You can't turn an entire economy around in thirty days.
Speaker 6 (28:38):
You can't.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Actually you can, and you seemingly have in that you're
crashing it fucking very rapidly.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
I mean, if you just like fire everyone and change
the rules, you kind of care.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
Yeah, it's wait easier to tear things down than build
things up, which is why we are tearing things down.
You Yeah, man, this has change. It's not so much hope,
but we do have change.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
It is change, I do say for the better, but
it is change. And I just love again how they
are so again because they have no like terra firma
they stand on when it comes to like anything that
they argue about. But sometime it's you know what I mean,
I'm not here, this is radio bi lingue. But you know,
(29:22):
like they used to do the thing where like the
Republicans inherit a great economy from a democratic presidency and
they go, look at what the economy is doing. But
in this instance, when they fuck it up, then they're like,
these seeds were planted long ago.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Is out of our hands. Man, we can't take credit
for this.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
So very very I guess not not the most convincing
sort of argument, but this is kind of where they're headed.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
And I feel like, yeah, this happens both sides, right,
like the economy, you know, bouncing back from a shit economy,
Like both sides are going to be like, well, you know,
give us a little bit of time. That makes sense.
The thing that really kind of feels like a shift
in tone for this administration is Elon Musk though, right, yeah, exactly, yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Because he talks weird.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Tone off in that way, but also him now no
longer he went from a week like less than a
week ago, being like I'm the cutter to the degree
of having like a cartoonishly big chainsaw, to now being like,
could you actually not.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
Basically so right now, like to your point, right, Musk
feels the heat from all the outrage over his a
curb stumping of the federal workforce. So now he's giving
Republicans their little propaganda talking points to say essentially that
Doge is not responsible for these cuts. This is from
CNN quote and his meeting with House Republicans. Musk also
(30:54):
attempted to distance himself from the widespread firings across the
federal government, which he blame aimed on federal department heads.
The GOP representative Derek Van Orden said that must hold
the group that recently announced plans to cut more than
seventy thousand jobs of the Department of Veteran Affairs quote
wasn't a Doge decision. The Wisconsin Republican added that Musk
(31:14):
told lawmakers that quote individual departments were involved in plans
to cut employees across the federal government, and that Doge
was making the quote assumption that department heads know who
is being quote unproductive and would quote reward the people
that are being productive. So a little bit more. Uh yeah,
(31:38):
he again he's the one finding the cuts to make.
But then he's liked, well, they're the ones that are
actually decided to do.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
A fucking email to everyone being like, we're gonna cut you.
If you don't like, send us a five point five
what you did? Yeah, top five, top five everyone.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Let me let me see your top five. Okay, let
me see your top eight friends on nice. But yeah,
this is just the I think because of all of
like it's clear that this has been a huge hang
up for Republicans and they're all probably banging on the
fucking White House door and Musk stored be like, what
are we supposed to say, like, you guys are doing
this shit. I don't even know how to tell him.
Who's response Like Musk's response like say, it's like the
(32:19):
department heads. I'm surprised Musk didn't just do the most
Republican thing like, oh, it's the immigrants that are doing
the cuts.
Speaker 4 (32:27):
Just say that.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
I mean, that's sort of the underlying logic of all
of this is because we have everything is so bad
because of immigrants or government waste or whatever. But I mean,
I feel like the easiest place to spot waste is
in the fucking Pentagon's budget. Like that's where you hear
the most ludicrous, like nonsense spending you've ever heard of.
But yeah, this is this is where this is, this
(32:50):
is the direction they're going. And right now Musk is
also blabbing on Twitter like that. He's like like welcoming
a government shut down and doesn't care if the Republicans
can get their shit in.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
Time, find all the services for like for the course,
looks how it doesn't work.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Yeah, because now he's like, we need to privatize Amtrak
and the post Office and like this is this is
like the most sort of bumbling way to get to this.
It's like, well, sabotage it. So then everyone's like privatize it.
But when you're doing it, when you're telegraphed, I mean,
I don't know it's not being telegraphed to everyone obviously,
but it seems pretty clear that that's kind of part
(33:28):
of the whole plan here.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Yeah, just privatize it, let him take over, and then
we're all we're all fucked because he's actually not good
at the things that everybody assumes he's really good at. No, no, no, no,
Like parenting, that is the one thing that I really
I mean, if he wasn't good at parenting, polity, why
would he have so many kids? Okay to checkmate, thank you.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Also, like there's some relation between Elon Musk having a
million kids and Trump's like new advertising being like Daddy's
home because he never usually is you know.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
What I mean, actually make an ad about like daddy
being home that like my kids could watch so then
I don't know, like they.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
I wonder's my dad? Who would give them like a
boyfriend his kids, a boyfriend pillow to hold at night,
to be like I'm not going to be there, but
here you can hold on.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
No, because he uses to help support his kids, doesn't
he like not pay for his kid in Texas or
something because he can get away with not paying.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
Well, like my dad didn't give me, you know, he
gave me like one diamond mind like you know, so
like and now look at me, so that's yeah, he's
he's a self made man. He's just passing that favor
along too. Oh wait, I'm sorry. He was born rich
and just bought a bunch of companies and is good
(34:50):
at I wish sting well from people.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
I wish his kids were self made so they wouldn't
have to say they're made from him, you know what
I mean. Yeah, that is horrific.
Speaker 2 (35:02):
Yeah, it was made with a turkey baster by his partners.
You know, in many ways, in many ways. All right,
latest trend, hot trend in in the legal world is
people using AI to generate briefs for cases that then
you know, they turn into the judge and the judge
(35:24):
there's a term for this now called hallucination sites c
i tes, and it's where they're citing case law from
cases that didn't actually happen.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
Oh fuck, we're so cooked.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
Yeah, I know.
Speaker 2 (35:41):
We talked about this when we had Emily Bender and
Alex hannah On last year about like what large language
models are. They're basically auto correct or autocompletes that are
just doing whatever they can to give you the appearance
that they're thinking and like trick you into thinking that
they have like done this work for you.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
And wait, that's also Trump and Musk. That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
Yeah, that's a lot of things. That's the entire Yeah,
it's the whole new ethos of like just good enough
to fool people.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
And which is fine if you're using it to correct
for the wage theft at your job, that's right.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
And so they lawyers are starting to use AI because
and I don't know, like we're all like everybody has
more and more work to do for less and less money,
like for other lawyers, CEOs.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
I know doctors who are using it to complete their notes.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
Right, like, yeah, everybody's getting fucking pinched.
Speaker 1 (36:41):
Does that makes sense to me?
Speaker 3 (36:43):
I think it can't save them time, like in terms
of like like because their notes are like they'll like input,
like they'll say it out loud or whatever and then
like have I don't know what they do, but like
they I think it helps. It's supposed to help with
the paperwork time. And I'm all for AI like helping
with this shit we don't want to do. But I'm
(37:04):
also like, I don't want people to get lazy at
the expense of our lives.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
No, not partly, I don't know, let the AI diagnose
this just the AI. Look at the chart that Yeah,
that's where it gets dangers. Yeah, that guy probably gets
a little dangerous. So judges are now having to find lawyers.
And there's this one case that four o four media
called out that's pretty fun, where the lawyer explained that
he had used AI before to assist with legal matters
(37:29):
such as drafting agreements, and did not know that AI
was capable of generating fictitious cases and citations. These hallucination
sites included tex step excerpts, which appear to be credible.
He reported, he is since that this is wild. He
reported that he has since taken continuing legal education courses
(37:51):
on the topic of AI use and continues to use
AI products, which he has been assured will not produced.
What do you mean you finished?
Speaker 3 (38:00):
What a disbar Okay, this is just the lawyer from
arrested Development all it is blah blah Barry. No, it's
the Winkler Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:13):
Henry Winkler Arson Arson investigator Henry Winkler.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
The judging response was, it is abundantly clear that mister
Ramirez did not make the requisite reasonable inquiry into the law.
Had he expended even minimal effort to do so he
would have discovered that the AI generated cases cases do
not exist, that the AI generated excerts appeared valid to
mister Ramirez does not relieve him of his duty to
(38:37):
conduct a reasonable inquiry just because they looked good to you,
Like you think that's a good enough excuse and then
to be like and I'm going to keep on using
it like it just this this seems to be an
emerging problem with AI that wasn't. Like one of the
big concerns I had going in is that it seems
to be like more fun and it's I guess it
(38:59):
seems more liable to the people using it than it
actually is so liable for fucking around, right, It's like
trying to talk a drunk person out of driving, like
and they're just like, no, what I'm fucking amazing to
Like combining alcohol with like driving is actually like I'm
(39:20):
I'm a better driver. Yeah, actually drive slower because I
know I'm drunk and I don't want to get pulled over.
But like the promise of something that can make you
like look smart with minimal effort for like people in
like this world where we're all being stepped on by
like massive corporations is like just too good to be true,
(39:42):
and so people are just like drunk on the promise
of that and end up just doing the wildest shit.
And then even when they get caught, aren't willing to
be like I guess I shouldn't use AI. They're just
like I guess I'll just keep using AI.
Speaker 3 (39:59):
This is also like tech. This is just like a
literacy in general. I think, like tech illiteracy, we never
have like the ethical implications ahead of the technology. It's
always behind, and I think like because of that, we're
eventually like not gonna have the tech development or the
medical development, or like the application of these solutions in
(40:19):
like the broad population, because we're just like too far
behind like educating people on this shit, right, Yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
Mean it's great. Doctor Ian Malcolm said, your scientists were
so preoccupied with whether or not they could they didn't
stop to think if they should.
Speaker 3 (40:34):
Oh holy shit, that's like a real doctor, right I
read that online.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
Yeah, that's a real doctor, my pediatrician.
Speaker 1 (40:45):
Chaos theory. I mean, no, The thing with this is
I can't believe though too. I guess it's super frightening.
It also just reveals the level of intellect of people.
That just can get into a certain field. Like we're like, like,
I mean, not that I thought every single lawyer is
a genius, but that on some level there was like
(41:05):
the basics where we're like, okay, don't use AI to
cite the case of Beggars v. Choosers in a court document.
But god, that's what's I don't know. Like that's when
I'm like, wow, I don't think I knew.
Speaker 3 (41:20):
That years ago when I first started stand up. These
are my friends, and people who listen to me may
know the podcast I was on, and so we're all cool.
But there was an episode of a podcast I did
with my friends and they were like, well, what makes
you more of a scientist than I am? And they shit,
weren't scientists. And I'm like I knew then that we
(41:42):
were cooked, Like because people people like will just be like, well,
I do my own research. And it's like YouTube videos,
you know what I mean, like googling and.
Speaker 4 (41:54):
Speech.
Speaker 3 (41:55):
I tutor with YouTube, but you can learn a lot,
but you do like have to know things. You know, Yeah, yeah,
tube videos are exactly But like for people to have
that arrogance of like, well, I'm also in this field
because I say I am.
Speaker 2 (42:10):
It's actually like my scientific method is I can just
like I watch the YouTube videos at two x speed,
and then I watched the ones that have monetization turned
off because then they don't get broken up by ads,
and so therefore I learn five times as much. It
has nothing to do with the fact that the monetization
being turned off is because they tells information why the Holocaust.
(42:34):
But also I'm not gonna pay for YouTube premium bee thish,
it's a racket. I can't even figure out how to
put ad blockers and chrome, so fuck it.
Speaker 1 (42:40):
Yeah. I it's funny when people turn like it feels
like that sort of attack of been like, well why
aren't I as scientists as if this is like a
philosophical quist question about what.
Speaker 3 (42:50):
It's like, Well, you could have done it. You could
have just got everybody could who has I mean not
everybody because they need resources and shit, but like these
people definitely could have done had they wanted to.
Speaker 2 (43:01):
Yeah, but I do think it's not necessarily I think
we're all dealing with the same shit of massive corporations.
Just everybody, like every bottom line is being shaved down
and down and down until one person's doing the work
of four people and then they're like, ho, this AI
(43:25):
thing is my a life saver, and they just don't
take the time to realize that it sucks. Shit, Like
I keep thinking about that Google that that Google super Bowl.
It was like an ad for Google AI. We've talked
about it a lot, where the Google AI is being
advertised with making the writing and research easy for a
(43:48):
cheese farmer who has to like put labels and like
marketing together for his cheese. And it had a blatantly
fake thing it said like Gouda is responsible for sixty
percent of the cheese consumption in the world, which is
like obviously false, and like just they just again like
it's the just not not wanting to admit that AI
(44:10):
sucks because it's like the answer to all these people's
prayers and it's like the answer to the stock markets prayers,
and so like I think that's the only way to explain,
Like how do you not fucking check your work? Like
the whole ad hinges on these facts being right, and
you don't check the.
Speaker 1 (44:31):
Facts, you do it like yeah, I don't, Yeah, I don't,
I don't know. I think I'm okay, I have I
had an immigrant mom checking my ship bro there, Yeah,
you know what I mean, different different levels, different levels
to that. I'm also just but I'm like even thinking
about it, lawyer, right, That's different than like someone who's
having to like do all this like paperwork at a company, right,
(44:53):
Like an attorney, Like if you're a criminal defense attorney,
like this joker is you haven't you have? You're charging
fucking money, and the assumption is why am I paying
you nine one thousand dollars an hour whatever your hourly
rate is for you to fucking use AI? Like then
I just did. That's just in excuse me.
Speaker 3 (45:11):
But I feel like that justification can be applied to
everyone because everyone can be like, well, I'm working really hard.
I may not be getting paid as much, but I
like don't have as much time I have my family
like whatever. It's like what Jack said. Like similarly with
like like doctors, they're like, well, if I don't have
to do the paperwork, then I can like see the
patient more, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (45:29):
Sure, I guess there's levels, right because once, yeah, filing
a legal brief about a case where you're citing case
law to bolster your argument in court, if you're merely
using AI to like summarize your notes. That seems pretty harmless.
Speaker 3 (45:43):
Yeah, I think we haven't been taught like where the
harm is.
Speaker 2 (45:46):
And that's, by the way, because they're so good at
summarizing the texts and emails that I get so so
good at that.
Speaker 1 (45:54):
That is funny on Apple. Now when you see some
of the messages, they're like, yeah, your friend believes so
so like Mavericks cooked. Also, dinner plans Tuesday. This is
not I said nothing. No one even said the Mavericks
were cooked in this text.
Speaker 2 (46:09):
But but anyway, let's take a quick break.
Speaker 4 (46:11):
We'll come back, and we're back. We're back, and we're back.
Speaker 2 (46:27):
Over the break, we were talking about Moodang. Where I
was I was saying, wait, wait, what happened to Moudang.
Did Moudang get canceled?
Speaker 6 (46:36):
She did.
Speaker 3 (46:37):
She got canceled because she chose Trump as the winner
for the election.
Speaker 1 (46:40):
From a predictive standpoint from endorsing.
Speaker 3 (46:45):
I think, I think because she's a woman, she's a girl.
I think people it's misogyny on the internet.
Speaker 2 (46:53):
I mean, I also thought Trump was going to win, Like.
Speaker 3 (46:56):
Yeah, I mean I didn't want it to happen.
Speaker 2 (46:59):
No, yeah, exactly, that, but Moodang because it's a woman
who's hot on the internet and there's so many haters
out there trying to take her down. Oh, actually okay,
to producer Victor, actually am I allowed to reveal this?
He Victor had a friend who worked with her, and
she's apparently problematic.
Speaker 1 (47:19):
As finn I can not believe that weld on. Victor
said that Moodang hides hold on. Moodang bites toothpicks in
her pen to see if the zoo keepers are.
Speaker 2 (47:31):
Clean up with the sufficient attention to detail.
Speaker 1 (47:34):
God, God, I thought that was only Ellen.
Speaker 2 (47:36):
You don't find that fucking toothpick, You're fired.
Speaker 1 (47:39):
You're fired, fire, I'm.
Speaker 3 (47:41):
Mood You can't cancel Moodang for not being kind. She
bites people and that's her whole thing, her whole problematic.
Speaker 4 (47:54):
Ship.
Speaker 2 (47:54):
All well, break back. So Moodang, though, is being uncanceled.
We feel like or is it is the lifespan for
like the cuteness of a baby hippo like short and
it's it's like.
Speaker 3 (48:08):
I'm sorry, I call the Cincinnati.
Speaker 4 (48:12):
And it's like Michael Jackson.
Speaker 2 (48:13):
Hitting puberty where they're just like get this kid out
of here, Like chemically castraight thing.
Speaker 3 (48:17):
Yeah, Michael Jackson famously not popular after hitting Pewery.
Speaker 2 (48:24):
I'm not familiar with the latter part of his career,
just a.
Speaker 4 (48:28):
Big fan of it.
Speaker 1 (48:29):
He kept that voice high anyway.
Speaker 3 (48:32):
You're like, he had that one hit wonder.
Speaker 1 (48:36):
Knocked the Beatles off the charts. Wait, were you asking something?
Speaker 2 (48:40):
I was I was asking are there other, uh like
hippos that have taken Moodang's place or we're no, it's
just other.
Speaker 3 (48:47):
Baby animals like the baby Tapier taper Tapeier in Oregon.
There's like another baby. There was like a there's baby
something I don't know, but there. It's all the zoos
have been capitalizing ons presence, but also mooting took over
the Cincinnati Zoo, Pygmy hippos, Fritz and family, you know,
so like it's a cycle, you know, if you're following
(49:11):
the zoo accounts like I am, you know.
Speaker 2 (49:14):
On that zoom on that zoo beat, on that zoom beat.
All right, zoo be quick, zoom beat, zoo beat, zoo
that's good.
Speaker 4 (49:26):
Zoo by to be well.
Speaker 2 (49:27):
I forget how that song goes. Anyways, Sasame Street, is
you in busting now? Anyways?
Speaker 1 (49:32):
All right next question, you're on it. Wait, what do
you mean, because the who's organized, the who's who's getting organized.
Speaker 2 (49:37):
The writers of puppeteers are already in unions, but there's
a new union.
Speaker 3 (49:42):
That you mean, what do you mean puppeteers?
Speaker 2 (49:46):
Okay, so this is gonna be a tough one.
Speaker 1 (49:49):
I told you, Miles, I told you, this is uh
moodang videos.
Speaker 2 (49:54):
Okay, cool, he's gonna be watching that while so, yeah,
keep watching that. The nonprofit that produces Sesame Street announced
that they're unionizing. Debut and new union logo that's basically
just a muppet version of the Predator handshake me the
son of a Bitch.
Speaker 1 (50:14):
Yeah, grasping hand in hand, rest in peace, Carl Weathers.
Speaker 2 (50:21):
But so the writers, Carl Weathers, I know.
Speaker 1 (50:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (50:27):
Uh, this new union doesn't cover writers, and it covers
workers such a puppet puppet ears. Yes, people, they're floppy
and cute.
Speaker 3 (50:42):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (50:44):
So this covers workers such as the early childhood education experts,
fundraisers for facilities, staff producers, and pair of legals and
they the other scaffolding for for all the scraffolding, all
the invisible scaffolding that have is behind the scenes that
makes it as good like stand out from other children
(51:05):
childhood education early childhood education specialists. It is the whole
reason that I was like, okay, like Sesame Street, yeah,
like that's it. There's so much shit, Like there's so
much the world of early childhood entertainment is like evolves
incredibly fast these days. There's like some scary shit about
(51:26):
Like okay, so these ones are actually really bad for
your kids' brains because it's just like flashing lights and
shit and like it's trying to it's just like not good.
And so the fact that like Sesame Street has from
day one been like we consulted first Step, we consulted
early childhood educators and like had them shape how we
(51:49):
like present information to children is like one of the
coolest things about Sesame Street. So they are finally being like, uh,
we feel like we should like be protected. And one
day after was announced that they were unionizing, Sesame Workshop
announced that they would be significantly downsizing, laying off more
than two hundred employees, which is I mean.
Speaker 3 (52:10):
This all is Elon Musk in charge of that too.
Speaker 2 (52:13):
It just it feels like he's in charge of everything.
It feels like, I mean, the entertainment industry has you know,
been slowly taken over by finance people, and it's resulted
in budget slashing, specifically of things that aren't overtly like
present on screen.
Speaker 3 (52:31):
You know.
Speaker 2 (52:32):
So they're like writers' rooms turn into like a handful
of writers being like put on onerous contracts and like
in this case, the early childhood education experts, like you
won't miss those the first episode after they're gone, the
monsters and puppets, and you know, they like all the
(52:52):
writers will still be writing the same cute shit, but
like long term, like same way that like you know, content,
you can just like tell there's like something missing a
little bit. Like they're they're just like not quite to
the level of what you're used to from years past.
Speaker 3 (53:12):
As they're bringing back black sitcoms, where are all the
black sitcoms other than that I love Abbit?
Speaker 1 (53:18):
Yeah you mean woke sitcom? I don't know. I mean
that's the whole fucking there's bring back production. Yes, you know,
they go from likes.
Speaker 2 (53:28):
They go from a writer's room of like eight people
who are hanging out like having fun, to like writers
google docs of four people, you know, and it's like
so there's like you could the jokes like feel similar
similarly like good and in places, and so you're not
totally noticing it, but it's just the overall quality like
(53:51):
it I feel. I just feel like this is the
overall direction of the entire economy, Like you hide the
poorly paid employees like that, like Amazon's and higher trick
is like okay, so like you know, if you pay
the people who work at the store like absolute shit
and like you know, charge them money for taking bathroom breaks,
(54:12):
people are going to notice that that that is going
to show up in like the customer experience at the store.
But if you never interact with those people, if the
customer never interacts with those people, then we can just
treat them like absolute shit and like just shave it
down and down and down, so the quality suffers, but
not in a way that's like immediately and overtly obvious
(54:34):
to people, you know what I mean, And like that
just seems to be the entire trick of how everything
functions now, is like how do we just keep shaving
it down further and further to worse and worse products
that people can't like immediately see, oh this sucks shit,
like right away on day one, but it eventually hits
(54:55):
that point.
Speaker 3 (54:55):
It eventually with quantity over quality. They're doing like these
things called verticals now in LA where it's like it's
it's basically like what can I watch on my phone
to take like the movie experience away from the user.
And it's also like the like the worst freakin' like
scripts and soapy things, and I will work on them
(55:17):
if you hire me. And it is like it's like
it's almost like AI slot, but it's like they're using
like it's weird. They're using like Chinese AI, translating it
and then translating it again and then making it consumable
for American market. It's like the process is so convoluted, right,
(55:38):
and it's so unnecessary when you could just get like
a couple writers in a room together.
Speaker 1 (55:42):
I didn't know that's what you're talking. I know, I
know some people who have been writing those.
Speaker 3 (55:47):
I had to write on like like a version of
that for a few months, and then they laid me
off and cut like cut my access to the slack
and it was awful, Like the material that they got
from the AI was terrible, And I didn't know that's
what I was signing up for When I first started,
it was crazy, Yeah, and what is the ultimate product
(56:09):
that just like weird trashy like soapy and I love
trash we know my love for reality TV, but like
weird trashy soapy like podcasts or verticals like things that
you can watch on your phone, like ten minute episodes,
And it's like you could have that but like better
quality if you just used human beings in a way
that like right allowed them to do art. You know.
Speaker 1 (56:32):
Yeah, it's like basically getting into that like TikTok scroll Habit,
but with like chunked out shows.
Speaker 3 (56:37):
With the worst content, like with really like inhuman content.
Speaker 1 (56:44):
Do people actually like watch that shit like that?
Speaker 3 (56:47):
Apparently it's like stuff to put up on.
Speaker 1 (56:50):
And people are getting hired. I mean, like I like
we've said it's the bubble, but yeah, we know people
that have been hired to work on that stuff because
that seems to be like some of the only place.
Speaker 3 (57:00):
But that's great, Yeah, that's where the money is and
we would much rather make like wonderful media, but we
can't because like everybody from the top down is investing
in this trash right do dooo?
Speaker 2 (57:13):
What if we invested in Dodoo. Okay, go on, Okay,
I'm intrigued. Yeah, it's it's it's wild. I don't know,
Like I'm sure eventually there will be a point in
the future, like after you know, independent media starts like
(57:34):
just dominating in terms of the quality of content, that
these massive industries will start being like all right, I
guess we fucking we.
Speaker 1 (57:43):
Need we need to make things people again, people have
to abandon that product first for any of that, for
that to make sense to like these massive studios and stuff.
I mean, like we like you're saying, like there's the
independent film has helped chip away at that or like
these smaller budget sort of indie capital I indie kind
of films.
Speaker 2 (58:03):
Yeah, but yeah, people doom Indie.
Speaker 3 (58:08):
Last like Indian people like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah exactly.
Speaker 1 (58:12):

saying to her people trying to gate keep break dancing.

To me, Like, Okay, well, I think she's terrible and
I hope she never dances again. And I think I
just want to I want to gate keep it from her.
