Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of sucked
off into the sky by this trendnadoo that one courtesy
a Peanuty Brown on the discord, thank you for bringing
Twists back up, Twisters, because it got us start it
all again. Brian the editor just watched it and he
(00:21):
concurs with us Steven Spielberg's note no kiss at the end,
leave the kissing.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Wait it was I thought Spielberg wanted the kiss.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Spielberg gave them the note to remove.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
The Oh hell yeah, yeah, sick dude, that's what I'm
talking about.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
It's movie.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
I took it as they because they don't kiss, but
then their flight is delayed and they like walk hand
in hand purposefully off to either like left up to
ones imagination exactly.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
It's a test.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Yeah, find a tornado shelter, like they probably know where
all the tornado shelters are, you know what I mean, a.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Little miss their miscreants. Of course, of course they do.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Or they're just gonna go like find find that next
tornado because they are you can apparently just like go
find a tornado right now. You want you want me
to find you a tornado, I'll go find you a tornado. Yeah,
I'll get you three, man.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
I'm gonna get you three by fucking by nine pm tonight.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
But yeah, more of course a reference to Miles's famous
line that he just loves how people keep getting sucked off,
because that is, in fact what happens.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
What the action is, you know, the air pressure, the
change I don't know even say the change in air pressure. Yeah,
took took their their corpses took flight due to them. No,
they got sucked off into the sky.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
And you showed tremendous restraint not using that phrasing when
we were talking about that show, the accident in which
a moon bounce full of children.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Yeah, yeah, well obviously that's I don't want to I
don't want to make light of something that's a tragedy
that's made up in a Netflix film, that's right.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Yeah, Anyway, they don't go just like get the thing
doesn't just blow off into the sky like.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Up into the clouds like.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
No, no, no, people have died from moon bounce. Is
getting lifted off the ground and then like fall out
of the moon bounce.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Bro. I saw there's a video that that's been on.
Anybody who's on Reddit or Twitter, enough spicing. The video
of like a little girl holding a kite and then
gets pulled up into the air like nifty feet No,
luckily she has the grip strength of an American gladiator. Goddamn,
because like it comes down and she's safe. But the
sight of seeing people get airborne due to the wind,
(02:39):
I use a scientific term there, Yeah, the people getting
airborne due to wind speed. That's I will not I
will not be flippant about that.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
And children do have that grip strength, man, Like, that's
the like, babies are born with tremendous grip strength, which
the fact that we lose is that evolutionarily needed that
in the first place, says a lot about how fucked
up things used to be for the kids species to survive.
And you're just gonna need to hang right there for
(03:10):
a little bit.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Yeah, you just have to dangle from this tree branch
so the predators don't get you. Yeah, ye, and then
you'll be okay, you'll be okay.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
But anyways, all right, my name's Jack, that's Miles. These
are some of the things that are trending. Twitter has
been banned in Brazil, the whole damn nation of two
hundred and fifteen million.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Yeah, yep, yeah, the whole thing. Nobody's getting it.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
That's like something like forty to seventy million users for
Twitter poof bye bye gone.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Can't use it all.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Because Elon Musk is a free speech champion, streak speech
absolute tis. So when the Brazilian government is like, hey man,
you needed to take some of these accounts down. They're
spreading disinformation, and he's like, go fuck yourself.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Oh, go fuck yourself turned.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Into like Keanu. I hate that.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
It's kind of half key because that's not Keanu's vibe.
But anyway, as a result, it went into this back
and forth where then Twitter also like removed their like
legal representative that like that is it based in Brazil
who would answer to the court. So basically the Brazilian
court's like, oh so there's no one here to talk
to adjudicate this or to press to discuss this properly.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Okay, your banned.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Your banned.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
They do say that that is Lula's famous catchphrase.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Your band mm hm.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
But he what he was interviewed on CNN and was like, yeah, no,
fuck this guy. The Brazilian justice system may have given
an important signal that the world is not obliged to
put up with Musk's extreme right wing anything goes just because.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
He is rich yep.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Which, yeah, I feel like American politicians probably saw that
and were like, wait, you can just you can just
say that. You can't say that.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
That's the fucking death wish. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
I think the other one another Supreme courts, because the
reason it's in the news again is the Supreme Court
of Brazil upheld this other judge's decision. Like the other
judge even took it to the Supreme Court to be like,
I'm not tripping right, and they unanimously be like, no,
fuck this guy. And one of the justices said that,
like the size of a bank account does not give
rise to outlandish immunity.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Yeah, wow, that that sounds about right.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
And there was even talk of like people being fined
for using VPNs to access it, although it wasn't clear
how like that could be enforced.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
But the used to be very popular in Brazil and
recently has like fallen off quite a bit, and so
the the stories from on the ground are like people
are like, yeah, I don't know, I don't really use
that shit anyways anymore.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Most a lot of people don't.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
I mean, you know, aside from the tortured few of
us that still insists on get good again.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
I think it's gonna get good.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
God, I just don't.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
I think Elon can turn it around, even with the
Nazis he's embracing.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
I think you can turn it around.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
But yeah, it's like and then also like this has
led to like Starlink also having their assets frozen.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
It's a whole thing.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Like he's fucking around and finding out that the Brazilian
legal system a bit different than the very friendly one
in the United States.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Joker Too fully add oh fully like Nick axle Folly, Yeah, yeah,
axle Folly Odd Deux. The new The Joker sequel, Joker
Too is out. It's getting reviews or it's not out.
It hit like it was debuted at like Venice or
(06:35):
one of the film festivals, and.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
The reviews are in and they are mixed. Yeah, we
don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Some people seem to really like it, some people don't.
I'm always rooting for movies to be good, but uh,
I do just want to So it is a musical.
It's not even doesn't even seem Yeah, it is musical.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
This is because he's got Lady Gaga, right.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
It's got Lady Gaga Joaquin Phoenix who won an Academy
Award for playing a musician. So you know that sentence
had music in it. And then uh I so, but
people were like, so, what what was the thinking behind
making this a musical? And Todd Phillips was like, I
(07:27):
don't want to label Joker to a musical because quote,
most of the music in the movie is really just dialogue.
It's just Arthur not having the words to say what
he wants to say, so he sings them instead because
he doesn't know what a musical is.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
I guess the.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Music in the movie is dialogue. And when the music
doesn't have the words that he wants.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
To, which is the whole, he sings the musical.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Is there a musical definition, it's if we're on the
same thing, a player or movie in which singing and
dancing play an essential part.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Uh huh, uh huh.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
And that's the that's like the broadest definition, and it
feels like it's absolutely conforming to that.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Okay, it's a it's a musical.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
So we'll get to see a movie that it is
a musical but is made by someone who has not
seen a musical ord wasn't even aware of the concept
of musicals existing, which I think makes it more intriguing.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
So maybe that's what he was going for, ye or maybe.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
Or is it just so bad, like he quite literally
can't find the words He's like, I was like.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I just think that I love you.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
And it's like he has to have the affect of
singing it to distance himself from his true emotions, thus
protecting his ego from being vulnerable.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
You know, we don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
And that's what's so intriguing about Charitable Two's French words, because, Uh,
this guy, Arthur Fleck, the star of Joker, guy's fucking twisted,
So you don't really know what what he's gonna come with.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Dude, he'll sing off key bro, he don't give a fuck.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
He doesn't give a fuck, but he's singing.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Uh, let's let's take a quick break and we'll be
right back and with.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Some election updates.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Mm, and we're back and Tim Walls's for some reason,
I've gotten worse at pronouncing his name. Is it Walts Walls?
(09:44):
Tim Wallas's second cousins are for Trump. Uh so there, yeah, case.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
Bitch, Yeah, nice try assholes, we got you. Even this
the vice presidential picks families for Trump. Now there's a
sure that says Nebraska walls is for Trump, and it's
got uh.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I believe these are eight human beings, yes.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
Eight eight whites with their nice custom T shirts on,
and like everyone's like, oh my god. Tim Waltz's mom
came through and was like, yeah, these are his second
cousins and they're just like the conservatives. It's like the
conservative wing of the family. So yeah, I mean they
it's not like they're in reaction to Tim being a
(10:28):
like Tim Waltz. They're being like, well, now we're for Trump.
They're like, you know, these people have been always maggot out.
It's just now they can use their connection to Tim
Waals to probably up their cred locally.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
His second if you can't even get his fucking second
cousins to vote for him, like what's even happening? Or
maybe this is inevitable because he is like an actual
Midwestern person, and right every Midwestern person's family is probably
grab back.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
I mean, I think most people's families are regardless, you
know what I mean, Like there's you're always going to
have somebody who's on that side of the fence for
the most part.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Yeah, So on the other side, Trump seems to be
losing a few people you might expect to be supporting him.
Not as significant as a group of eight second cousins,
mind you. But for instance, Goldman Sachs economists have come
out and done like some modeling. And you know how
(11:29):
big a fans we are of economists modeling, but oh yeah,
the economies do always seem to have like come down
on the same side of like who is better for.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
The economy for my money?
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Yeah, Goldman sach economy, Goldman Sax economists like that.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
That just like.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Feels I start like smelling a Republican when those words
are put together. But they came out gamed out the
potential economic implications of a Republican or Democratic victory in November.
Uh and caush, and that the us GDP would face
a hit in the case of a win for Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Boom.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Capital has spoken yes, uh, but that's yeah, that's a
little surprising. That goes against the kind of accepted wisdom
about who Donald like, who would Donald Trump be good for?
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Right? A handful of rich people.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
Yeah, when it's all things like I'll make sure you
don't pay anything. But they're like, yeah, but that's just
a handful of us. Like I'm also invested. I'm like
kind of invested in a lot of shit in the economy,
so like it can't just be me like I need
I need the businesses to be humming, but great, sure
will that do anything?
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Probably I do not. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Maybe maybe they are, like I feel like there's probably
some like banker people who are still listening to economists
about like what what their forecasts say. There's probably still
like Wall Street Journal Republicans out there.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Yeah, if you're that. But I feel like those kinds
of people they're probably insulated enough by the wealth that
it really truly doesn't matter who's president.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
They're like, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
Yeah, I forgot to vote. Yeah, like I'm just collecting
interest on all this shit.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
But it's helpful for them to have like their financial
advisors moral licensing to be like, yeah, Trump would actually
be better for you, so they could.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Be well, there, he said it, he said it, not me.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Hold on, honey, you want braces, right, Okay, So I'm
gonna have to vote.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
I'm voting Trump.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
And then also apparently there are some Republicans these are
like blind items. Nobody's going on the record, but they
like since the past month or so, as Trump has
been you know, seeming to like have some some things
glitching in the old brain in public, and then his
(13:46):
you know, he's gone back on some of his anti
choice bona fides, that there are now Republicans who are
okay with a Donald Trump lost on election day and
specifically are like gaming things out and they're like, actually,
this would be the best thing for the Republican party
because we have no future with him.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
So yep, yep, yep. Cool.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
I don't know, you could just lose.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
Yeah, there was like a whole thing in Politico. I
think that was the article, Yeah, Politico's playbook.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Of course, we checked the politico dot com playbook every
morning just to see, uh, what what everybody's up to.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Yeah, in the Capitol.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
People people come up to me on the street all
the time they say, hey, what's up, playboy?
Speaker 2 (14:29):
I say, hey, what's up with the playbook? Thank you? You
asked me wrong. Questions. I need to know what political's
weird takes are on today.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
I actually keep it on a thing on my arm
like a college quarterback. You know the playbook Politico playbook.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
Yeah, it's a little led screen that you have that
updates like.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Oh no, look at this, what is this?
Speaker 4 (14:51):
But yeah, I think there's this whole you know, the
the the Republicans who aren't even never Trumpers are saying it,
but not publicly because they are cowards, and so they're
still just hoping that his terrible candidacy will help them.
Now they're like, now we get to be the people
who are the big kids on the playground.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Because the MAGA people took it over.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
I don't know, it's it's a lot of coping. So
I guess they can just say.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Well, the good thing is maybe if Kamla Harris wins,
we can we can be the new Republicans. Yeah, okay, sure, sure, sure, sure, sure,
sure sure sure.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Unfortunately, they're probably not going to get their wish of
Donald Trump lost because it does seem like the Republicans
have figured out the code for stopping Kamlala Harris. And
so we got a couple strategies here.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
Onees Yeah, fucking genius dude, Peter Navarro, who I'm you know,
I think just got out of prison, you know, he's
he's on he's on the internet screaming about He's like,
we gotta figure out a way to get just to
just to try and you know, slow down the enthusiasm,
(16:06):
and then this is this is his strategy for that.
Speaker 5 (16:08):
I emerging you. From this day forward, never ever ever
to refer to Kamala Harris by her first name.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Okay, only her first name, Okay.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Kamala, Kama.
Speaker 5 (16:20):
She is not a soccer star.
Speaker 6 (16:22):
Okay, I get it, Messay, I get it.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
By the way he says, essay.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
Yeah, messy, MESSI not Lionel anyway, it ain't messy Okay.
Speaker 5 (16:45):
But but when you use Kamala these days, it does
not do us any good. Works in the other direction,
it personalizes her and it creates a favorable impression. We
haven't been able to do what needs to be done
(17:06):
based on her resume.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
Turn anyway, I can't, I can't. I can't understand this anymore.
He's like losing the thread. He also goes on to
be like he's like so an ode or homage to
that famous pop music karma chameleon. That's not bad, comm
a liar, that's not bad. But we're having a wake
up call right now. Okay, we're burying Kamala as.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
A single use names. A single use name. What is
a single use plastics to?
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Yeah, a single use name is very strange.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Comma chameleon would peoples kama chameleon.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
It's not even.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Chameleon.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Couldn't even figure out like what it would be.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
So he was like, maybe like work, I don't know,
I'm just spitballing here, but maybe like that song could
be worked in somehow.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I'm just like out here workshopping things. I didn't say
they were all.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
Going to be winners.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
Okay, yeah, that's just wild though, too, Like that's this
is this is where the thinking is too. Now, like
the ideas that are coming out of these like people
have audiences for like people in the far right, is
just stuff, Like.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
All right, what if we just called her madam vice President?
Speaker 1 (18:22):
What I mean I thought he was going with because
calling women by their first name and men by their
last name is kind of like a microaggression that happens
in the workplace sometimes.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
So I thought he was being like being protective.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Yeah, yeah, guys call her miss Harris or something.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Please.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Meanwhile, they're coming at Kamala Harris from multiple angles, so
of course don't use it as a single use name
whatever that means name. And then also, uh, what's up
with their earbuds? Okay, like is it that this is weird? Right?
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Yeah? What is it? What's going on?
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Why does she so Miles she's always got earbuds in
when she's talking on the phone. And that's because, uh,
it really feels like people just like trying to be like, well,
look at your shirt. Your shirt sucks, you know, just
like looking at a picture and trying to like pick
(19:26):
a thing to make fun of somebody about. But she
is wearing headphones because she's on the phone, because she's
busy person. They are speculating that she is using them
to shield herself from interviews and interview questions. Fox News
(19:49):
loved this, so they like jumped on and they're like,
look look at this with her with their headphones. They're
like proof positive smoking gun is that she's not using
air pods. Okay, like the rest of the world, She's
still using wired headphones. So obviously it's just a show
(20:11):
to like she's trying to show everybody that she's on
the phone so that she looks busy and so she
can't answer their questions.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
Right, right, right, right right, Okay, so similar to so
when these men see that, similar to a lot of
the females I try to talk to you out in public,
they got their ear.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
I've seen this one hundred times, folks.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
It's fake.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
It's just because I'm creepy, or it's because they're they're lying. Yeah,
so this is just so wild to be like the
other ones, like they're wired. Sometimes she wears the wired ones,
not even air pods.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
Yes, and by the way, that was a scandal.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
They like, so now they're being like, she's actually like
faking it, and you can tell because she's using wire.
But she's always worn wired earbuds and you can like
literally see them in the famous like We Did It
Joe video where she's out for a jog and finds
out that they won the election. And in fact, this
is the first time her use of wired earbuds has
(21:18):
sparked a stupid controversy. In twenty twenty one, Politico published
a piece blowing the lid off of her bluetooth phobia.
They interviewed former aides who revealed that Harris insists on
using wired headphones.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
Holy shit, what.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Are we kay as a country, we're fine with that?
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Not if we have this person so close to power
who insists on using wired headphones, why.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
Would they do that? Like?
Speaker 1 (21:50):
What?
Speaker 3 (21:50):
What? What?
Speaker 4 (21:51):
What compels the person to use fired headphones in twenty
twenty one?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Oh actually, so that same article, like after pretending it
was a controver. He also points out that numerous experts
say that despite you know, this article's three authors calling
Harris paranoid for using wired ear buds, there are numerous
cybersecurity concerns around bluetooth technology. The CVE program is a
(22:17):
database of current and historic cybersecurity vulnerabilities recorded, which and
it has recorded more than four hundred and fifty instances
of Bluetooth being used to compromise data and devices, which
is why the FBI reportedly instructs politicians, lawmakers, and national
security executives to protect themselves from spies, trolls, and adversaries
(22:38):
by using wired devices, not bluetooth, whenever possible. So she's
literally being dragged for just following security protocols from the FBI.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
She's just listening to the FBI. Man, what's wrong with that?
Speaker 4 (22:52):
What's wrong with It's just so funny though, too, because
like they can't, Like there's plenty of policy you could
talk about, but the Replicans are famously want nothing to
do with policy. It would also be these like weird
personal attacks, like dude, and she's wearing like fucking earbuds. Yeah,
I mean, obviously it's not a critique of her policies.
(23:13):
Isn't gonna come from the far right of her, But Jesus,
like they're they're they have nothing. Uh, And this is
this is where you end up when you're just going
after earbuds and you have no policy to speak of.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Yeah. Yes.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Meanwhile, if you want to compare the two cannon's respective
earbud cred In addition to presumably not even knowing what
AirPods are, Trump sells gold paneled earbuds on his website,
and like I assumed they were just the Apple AirPods,
but like with gold on the outside and like Trump
stenciled in, Uh, they're just like way worse. A full
(23:49):
charge gives you two to three hours of listening time,
whereas normal AirPods give you four and a half to six.
So you check that we wouldn't want to have wired
earbuds as opposed to gold plated shitty AirPods that only
work for like an hour.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
Yeah, oh well they'll have something. They'll they'll have another Look,
they're gonna have another attack, locked and loaded come this
time tomorrow, something great.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
So like I love opening up my Internet box every
morning and seeing what they have in store for me.
Speaker 4 (24:25):
Yeah, well, because now it's just like even like fucking
Lindsey Graham had an op ed in the New York
Times and he's like, Donald Trump, please stop going off
