Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to season one fifty, episode
one of production of My Heart Radio. This is a
podcast where we take a deep dive into America's share
consciousness and say, officially, off the top, fuck the Koch Brothers,
fuck box News, fuck Rush Limbaugh, buck buck Sexton, fucking Shapiro,

(00:23):
and fuck Tucker Carlson. It's Tuesday, September eight. My name
is Jack O'Brien AK. No one knows what it's like
to be the red Man, to be the dead man
behind white thighs, and no one knows what it's like

(00:48):
to be graded second rded on the Zeitgeist. That is
courtesy a Rusty Shackleford. Great that that made me. That
AK made me re examine what a whiny song that
is by the who I know. I'm not supposed to

(01:12):
talk yet, but please tell me that you have heard
be Fred Durst cover. Oh yeah, what's for the It
was for the movie Attica. And at the end of
it he gets to make out with Holly Berry I believe,
I'm not sure at the end of the video. I
think so. He definitely has He definitely has a video
where at the end he gets to make out with
Hallie Berry and like whatever, And he definitely did a

(01:33):
cover behind Blue Eyes and he could be completely something, yes,
but yeah, damn he really had his moment, didn't he
really did. It is weird to put myself in a
place where I'm like, yeah, fred Durst, like Hallie Berry
would agree to kiss fred Dart. It's just a strange mindset,
that's what you feel. You're just like, I guess there
was a point in time. It's just one of those days.

(01:59):
We were just talking in on a recent episode, connecting um,
the toxic masculinity of the seventies with the toxic masculinity
of like the late nineties, early two thousands. Uh, and
just like how white men were just given this like
carpe launch and they always use it to be sexual

(02:19):
predators and pedophiles. Uh, And that that's just because like
the seventies, like rocker, like nobody knows how hard it
is to be the lead singer of the world's biggest
rock band, and then like fred Durst comes back and
it's like nobody appreciates my talent. I'm an artiste. Now

(02:42):
I'm gonna make out with And it was was his cover.
It was his cover of Behind Blue Eyes. First he
makes out with Holly Berry and I was thinking of Gatica.
You're talking, I don't. I think Gothica makes way more
sense one of those. But I don't know. But I
was thinking which hawk one where Yeah, that's Gatica. I

(03:06):
was like, that is strange that they went with a
Durst cover for that movie, and I've think Gotha. Hey,
who are those voices? I'll tell you who they are. Listener,
I'm thrilled to be joined by my special guest co host,
the very face of Mount Zeitmore. She is little Zam

(03:28):
Jamie if you like me, Jamie Laftis and saying Colvin
in May if you like that, and bonus and going
out in the rain if you like Vinsie for leftists
on the streets of l A And then I'm that

(03:51):
cost you've looked for. Please don't at me today. That
is a fun one. That's a fun one there. That's

(04:34):
the hilarious and talented and brilliant Danielle rad descriptions. Yeah,
and it is her birthday. Ship. You were born on

(04:54):
the same day as presumably a lot of people, but
one Beyonce Knowles as super producer on a Hosnie pronounced it. Uh,
same day, same year, same day, same year. Pretty cool.
We both look great. Yeah. Well who that entitles you

(05:14):
to a hang Yeah for sure, special bond. Yeah, that
seems to be made. Miles has talked about how he
is birthday brothers with Prince Harry. Harry is his name right?
I almost called him Henry, but yeah, Prince Harry. Uh so,
and he he really does seem like he believes he
deserves to hang out with him. He's like, Yo, hit

(05:36):
me up. We're born on the same day, so yes,
you know we should we should kick it. Uh have
you have you ever had any interaction with Beyonce? Um?
I have not. Um that it is. It is a
meeting of the minds, and I guess we'll just have
to wait to happen. Um, one person. Now he was
not born on our exact birthday, but Xavier Woods the

(05:57):
wrestler is also a September four baby. Yeah, that's really nice.
There is. There's a couple of good ones man, some
uh some real classy parents just just fucking getting it
in right between Christmas and New Year's, just fucking banging
it out. That is humanities. Uh like, uh, what's that

(06:18):
called mating season? Is the between Christmas and New Year's.
Like when you look at when birth spike, that's the
most common. You are in the range of the most
common birthdays. Um, because basically we're all stuck inside. Uh.
I was. I was birthday sex for sure. I did

(06:39):
the math when I was like fourteen. I was like,
oh that's a bummer. Oh My parents like to They
didn't really mix things up. They're like, oh, it's your birthday, Okay,
I guess we'd better have sex. That's how I go. Right,
all right, Danielle, we're going to get to know you
a little bit better in a moment. First, we're gonna

(06:59):
tell her listeners just a couple of things we're talking about.
We're gonna talk about how Donald Trump is truly cartoonishly
bad at being a conservative president. With regards to his
feelings about the troops, we'll talk about that. We'll talk

(07:19):
about what his miracle cure convalescent plasma plan has to
say about just his general outlook on what his role
is as a leader. We're gonna talk about Batman being sick.
We're gonna talk about the Smurfs, of course, and boss Baby. Yeah, yeah, sorry,

(07:43):
I should have said should have called him by his
full name. There's boss Baby movie, There's boss Baby TV show,
and now to complete the trilogy, is boss Baby Interactive? Yes? Yes,
the children like the boss Baby I don't know. Yeah,
what toy capitalism is? Adorable? Um? Seven Days to Live, Danielle,

(08:08):
What is something from your search history that's revealing about
who you are? I looked up blue shoe. Um. Blue
shoe is a It is a a dick pill product
for uh, for keeping keeping your dick hard. And they
advertise on a lot of wrestling programs, like a lot
of wrestling podcasts. And I have a friend who told

(08:30):
me the story about how one night he took some
blue show UH, and it is a delightful story. It
is not mine. I hope to get him on my
wrestling podcast to talk about it. But yeah, a friend
of mine took some blue shoo and so I I
looked up. I looked up exactly what blue schoo is
and how blue choo works. And I'm still not sure.

(08:52):
But according according to Jim Ross, uh, it'll make your
dick show hard and like a cat could scratch it.
So oh that's so hard, Like a cat could scratch
it like one of those cat posts. Yeah, I got
it in my head as someone with many cat scratch
posts around my home. The implications of that are devastating. Um,

(09:18):
it's incredibly upsetting. Wrestlers have very lively, very lively talk,
but yeah, I I if you listen to, in particular
the Gym Ross podcast, he will talk for too many
minutes about what blue Chow has done for him in
his dick and too many minutes is one is one

(09:39):
minute too many? Um? But he will go in for
like five minutes just talking about how great blue Chow
is um so that he can sex ladies. Yeah cool?
Is it too like um gum to like a soft
chewable thing or che just chew able in like Flintstone's

(10:02):
vitamin sense? Do we know um Let's let's find out.
I believe. Um, oh gosh, now I'm on their official side.
They should just pay me. Maybe there's some listeners that
are like, now, hold on, did some say a cat
could scratch it? You just a cat? I believe it's so.
It looks like it almost looks like Smarties. It almost

(10:25):
looks like a Smartie. Yeah. Interesting, getting something from my family. Yeah,
of course you need to. Uh, that's yeah, I'm curious
what it what it tastes like? Is it flavored like
blue raspberry? Are we thinking, yeah, it's interesting. Well we'll

(10:45):
have to uh taste tests some blue choo at some point. Yeah.
You should absolutely do that on the air and then
stay on air for however long it takes for to
not be in your system anymore. It's like that radio
broadcast where they had a water chugging contest and someone died.
It was yeah, yes, yes, Oh that's uh. You know

(11:10):
the things people do for content. Radio is scary. Radio
kills people. I feel like radio is very scary. Yeah,
because it's like unregulated to a large degree. Um kind
of miss it. What is something you think is overrated?
Oh gosh, Um, we don't need to call Donald Trump

(11:32):
orange anymore. Right, we all get it, we we all,
we all get it unless you can find a really
interesting way to call him orange. Like I don't need
to hear about how he's a pumpkin. I don't need
to hear about how he's a cheeto. You know, the
cheet thing that somebody said that before. It looks like

(11:55):
I just sorry. I look, if you can find a
clever way to say it, great, I no longer need
to hear the cheeto that's in office. Um, we've it
reminds me of we all make fun of. Conservatives have
two jokes, um you know, one of them being attack
helicopter blah blah blah. Um. We have one joke, which

(12:18):
is that Donald Trump is a Cheeto, and I like cheetos.
Stop sucking up cheetos for me. She doesn't. We only
have so many things like yeah, that has that when
people say that it has a big like aunt energy
to it, like email, forward energy, forward energy. Yes, yes,
that's exactly it is. Your just watched John Oliver for

(12:39):
the first time. Well you believe what that cheeto did
this time? Fucking yes, we believe it. Yeah. I got
my political takes from Jimmy Fallon energy. J I saw
Jimmy fallon conduct I was like, in a there was
nothing on and what was conducting electricity? Open heart surgery? Uh?

(13:08):
A fifteen minute zoom interview with Joseph Gordon Levitt TikTok Dances.
It was the worst mad lib I've ever went. J
g L. Where where have you gone? Joseph Gordon Levitt?
He's been in stuff still, I don't know. I was
just like, I don't need to see you do a

(13:29):
TikTok dance. I don't. He's in that new Netflix movie
right where it's like you get to have superpowers for
like a second. Yeah, what is that project Project Power?
That was my rewatch a couple of weeks ago. He's
fine in it. Uh. He is what he should be,
which is uh the you know, supporting actor in an

(13:52):
action movie. I think he's good as a supporting actor
in an action movie. Um, but yeah, he just kind
of I don't know he went and did that like
press record or whatever. Um thing. I think his the
movie that he was building up too in his career
was the one about him being a porn star and
people are like, uh, that's that's a bomber man. That's

(14:16):
not how we want to think about you. You lead
that to your Buff's right exactly. Yes, I feel like
j g L really wants to harness that lo buff energy,
but it's just not it's not in the cards for him.
He's too soft. He's a sad boy. He's a sap soft, soft, soft,
sad boy. I don't mean, look he's big Shin's energy.

(14:40):
You're not giving me buff. He's a big I'm so confused.
If a Cardigan was a person, it would be Joseph's
the rock band. I think the bone big hell yeah
is he was in. I was thinking about him recently

(15:02):
because I we did Inception on the backdel cast and
it was like he was really making a play for
like Action Man for a couple of years there, and
it's I'm kind of glad that it didn't pan out.
I he's a soft boy. I think Looper was the
kind of the nail in that when it was like, oh,
you're doing it and for some reason you also have

(15:22):
Bruce Bruce Willis's entire bottom half of your face, Like
so weird, what a weird decision. They really doubled down.
Be able to get people won't be able to get
over the idea that he looks slightly different. We have
to we have to give him a very strange prosthetic.
It looked very much like you don't want conan, where

(15:43):
they would put the fake lips over, like over a
picture of somebody and then like someone talks. That's what
it looked like. But c g I where it was
just like Bruce Willis's bottom half of his face just
super imposed over Joseph Gordant. It may fuel was he
knives out, No, but it seems like he should have

(16:03):
been right. He has a hidden cameo and knives out apparently.
I just googled Joseph Gordon Levitt and knives out came up. Um.
But yeah, I mean he is in Ryan Johnson's uh
first movie Brick. Yeah, I do too, and I like
him in Brick, and I was like, am I going
to be a Joseph Gordon Levitt fan? Uh? And then

(16:27):
that didn't end up panning out? But he I feel
like he was replaced by Tom Holland. Like somebody who
is like small, like musical, can like jump around and
do fun stuff. But uh, Tom Holland is like the
evolutionary Uh. I guess Tom Holland is like trained in dance,

(16:49):
uh and j g L is trained in being in
third Rock from the Sun. He might be also trained
in dance, but I don't know. He did he did
do a really good version of Um the Nation for
UM lip Sync Battle. Okay, okay, yeah, he's probably has
some musical background. Uh, let's just make this podcast about

(17:10):
j g L. What is something you think is underrated?
Oh gosh, something that is underrated? Um. I think I've
said this on here before, I feel okay to repeat it. Um,
maybe we can all just choose the empathetic response first
before we get them jokes off, Like just for a second. UM,

(17:32):
I think maybe empathy is underrated. And this is just
you know, thinking about we've all I think this has
been a larger conversation that's been happening. But just what
happened with Chadwick Boseman when he went on to do
that live and everyone was like, oh, he's skinny, he
must be on the crack. It couldn't possibly be that, like, oh,
maybe he had he did it for a role or whatever,
and so black Twitter got all them jokes off and
then we found out obviously that he was Um, he

(17:55):
was undergoing very aggressive treatment for a very aggressive cancer
which wound up. You want to pass it away from um.
And look, we're all gonna get them jokes. I get it.
I make them jokes. But maybe it's okay before you
fire off your hot take to give it a hot second.
And like, maybe you don't need to um immediately jumped

(18:16):
to this actor lost weight. They must be on crack. Yeah,
And just we're just remembering that like everyone is their
own universe. Everyone is a person. People aren't just background
players in your life. UM. People have a whole world
going on inside of them. UM, and just act accordingly.
I'm sure that someone smarter has put it in a

(18:38):
better way, like do one to others or golden rule
or whatever. I'm just gonna say it in the way
that's five minutes long and consulated just every bunch of
I'm a very talented writer. The I will also say,
as somebody whose job used to have the word crack

(18:59):
in it, just in general, you can hold onto your
crack jokes. They're not, uh ever funny, and usually the
least funny human beings in the world are the ones
who leap to make them. When the word cracker cracked
come up there. It's always like, that's always the very

(19:21):
unfunny person's first response is to sorry, just crack even
exists anymore? Is that like a thing the drug? I'm sure, yeah,
I think so. Uh, I think it. I think it
is less epidemic than it obviously used to be, but

(19:41):
uh yeah, there's a lot of people in the recovery
community who have have dabbled. I think I think it's
still out there ruining lives. Um good. What is a myth? Finally?
What is uh something people think it's true, you know,

(20:02):
to be false or vice versa. I don't know if
I've used this one before too, but it always comes
up that the people that you see online that are
like often retweeted, or the people that you see on YouTube,
or the people that you hear on podcasts have money. Yeah.
Um yeah. I was once at the train station, um

(20:22):
a train station in l A And there was a
security guard there and he recognized me from my work
on like screen Junkies and whatever, and he was like, well,
what what are you doing riding the train? I was like,
why ride? I take the train? And then which is
like not from one place to another, Yeah, just going
from one place to another place, and um, craziness and

(20:42):
uh and to be fair, train culture like it's not
the same as it is in a Chicago or in
a UM, or in a New York or even in
San Francisco. But he was like, oh, I would have
thought that you would, like I just assumed that you
would be driving like a fancy car. And I was like,
I don't. We're not all beauty pie. My dude, are
very happy that we can cobble together one of ten

(21:03):
jobs to make one rent. That's like a if. It's
so interesting. I feel like that conversation has been going
on for a long time, but it just never quite
catches on that. It's like there are so many different
versions of like being a podcaster or even just like
making stuff that mostly lives online where I forget when

(21:24):
this was like maybe five or six years ago, there
was um someone who worked, I believe for BuzzFeed. There
was like a wave of employees who had to get
who are like really you know, internet famous on BuzzFeed,
but then had to have like second jobs and people
were giving them ship for it when it's like they're like,
you're famous, why why are you working at a restaurant.

(21:45):
It's like, why would you be consider where this blame
should be, you know, left, but just I don't know. Yeah,
that conversation has been so imperfect, Like, oh, that's crazy.
So you are responsible for were all of this content
that people really love and yet the money is not
coming down to you. What an interesting conversation to have,

(22:07):
you know what I mean. But then but then it
winds up being no, you're a loser and that's why
you have to work at Trader Joe's instead of being like,
how come they take your stuff and then give you
like fifty bucks per appearance? You know what I mean?
And I don't know. I don't know what buzz Yeah,
I blame you. I don't know what BuzzFeed is is

(22:27):
charging or what's going on. And granted this whole industry
is dying, it's very exciting as far as like the Internet,
as far as like the being on YouTube and talking
about stuff stuff um and a lot of people will
ask like, hey, like I want to do what you
do and it's like, oh, what I do wasn't gonna
be around in two years. You gotta find something else.

(22:47):
That door is closing quickly. Yeah, you're like no, no, no,
you don't understand. I got in just in time. No
I did. I always say like I try to keep
that ladder down, but the industry has pulled that ladder
up behind me. I am the last one to get
in and be like you can make money just sucking
cracking jokes about movies like it was it. I was

(23:08):
the last one, and I apologize. It's like that's seen
in Titanic where there's like the guy slipping under the
watertight door. That's us. Sorry, sorry, everybody else you have
to you know, you know it's not worth it. It's fine.

(23:28):
Just go on TikTok, make a new dance. I promised challenge.
Don't do the benegrill challenge. God are people still doing
the benegril challenge? A child diet from the bend challenge
on from TikTok. I don't know how, Like maybe she
saw it on TikTok. Maybe it's you know, so a

(23:50):
lot of times, whatever the latest technology buzzword is will
get blamed for things that were happening anyways. But so
maybe it's just the Benadryl challenge has been a thing,
and benadril abuse has been a thing, and somebody saw
it on TikTok and is blaming TikTok, but her aunt
and uncle, who I was gotta trust in aunt and

(24:12):
uncle are saying that it was a TikTok based challenge.
What is the benetial challenge? Because it's very upsetting because
I because diafan hydramene for me is just like I
can't slee if I have anxiety, and it's a chemical
cousin of a lot of anxiety meds. Um, So do
you just take a crap ton of benadryl. I think

(24:35):
that's it and then see how all right, let's take
a quick break. We'll be right back, and we're back
and sticking with Titanic metaphors. I feel like our current

(25:00):
president is, uh, Billy's in like shooting women to get
on the escapeboat, like just cartoonishly doing the bad thing.
That absolutely Billy Vane like this. Um. But so there's

(25:27):
I think this was generally like rumored at the time,
there was this uh you know, Trump too made a
trip to France and was supposed to visit a cemetery
where a bunch of World War One veterans were buried.
It was raining, it was missing that day, and he

(25:48):
claimed that they couldn't fly as helicopter and that's why
he chose not, that's why it had to be canceled. Um,
people who are with him that day are now saying
that he he was He was saying, why should I
go to that cemetery? It's filled with losers. Referred to
the more than eight hundred Marines who lost their lives

(26:12):
there as suckers for getting killed. And yeah, it's like
a very venerated event in the history of the Marine
Corps and very venerated cemetery. And and he's, uh, he
asked who were the good guys in this war? And
at wondered why the US would intervene on the side

(26:34):
of the Allies, which isn't too surprising given his stance
on World War Two and the fact that he always
had Adolf Hitler's speeches near his bed for like eighties
and nineties. Um, but he's just like so directly the
opposite of what the people who support him claimed to

(26:56):
stand for. Like there's definitely a new spin on like
what a conservative is that he invented basically like say
what racist people are thinking? Straight shooter capitalism, celebrity guy
version of things. But then I feel like even like
the they're like willing to overlook his sexual assaults and

(27:20):
affairs because there's like an old fashioned version of like
sexual politics that they're like, yeah, he's doing the thing
for the nineteen fifties, but and that that's like a
he's a complete fucking stretch for his supporters to to
be into. But this seems to be the one place

(27:41):
where they haven't quite found the way to justify him
to themselves. He doesn't support the truth, yeah exactly exactly.
That's the one where he's like where they're like, but
like can we can we find a way? Yeah? Yeah,
like could you? It's at least you could do with it.

(28:01):
Especially with the major league Conservative platform is too like yeah,
s a T s are garbage, right, and like a
lot of um just for for lots of different reasons, right,
A lot of entrance exams are kind of are kind
of garbage and trash um. And I think in most
cases they are not necessary because they don't um actually
um adequately show what someone knows. Right, they should you

(28:25):
should if your president probably know who fought in World
War One, what the war was about, Yeah, um, you
should know. You you should just know that. Um. Also,
is that question too dumb to be on the S
A T S though, like you fought in World War One? Yeah,
I feel like that's more of like a high school

(28:46):
entrance exam. I think that's been That's been said a
number of times of like our president could most likely
not pass the American citizenship test, but yeah, much less.
I'm like, I don't even know if fucking I could.
But he definitely. But you're not. You're not president, right,
I am famously not the president you make. That is

(29:07):
what we do, and it is fantastic and we're very
good at it. There is no entrance example to part jokes. Also,
is it is it a problem with helicopters that they
don't work in the rain? I feel like we have
heard about that before. Yeah, no, it's it's not Nobody
is really backed him on on that one. But the Yeah,

(29:31):
I mean he it's really like a hot mic moment
written by Veep if Veep just wanted to, you know,
be the if the Raiders of Veep just wanted to
like completely let an algorithm write an episode or yeah,

(29:52):
it's it is. It's like the chaotic take on everything
and some of those some of that chaos ends up
with a conservative platform, and a lot of it does not.
The article goes on to talk about how Trump on
Memorial Day visited Arlington Cemetery on a Memorial Day with

(30:14):
his chief of staff John Kelly, whose son is buried
in Section sixty, which he was killed in two thousand
ten in Afghanistan when he was twenty nine, and Trump
was supposed to on his visit, joined John Kelly and
paying respects at his son's grave to comfort the families
of other fallen service members. But according to sources with

(30:35):
knowledge of the visit, while standing next to Robert Kelly's grave,
he turned to John Kelly, Robert Kelly's father, and said,
I don't get it. What was in it for them? Um?
So Kelly chose to justify that to himself by being
like he was making a reference to the selflessness. Um.

(30:57):
But then he said he says that he According to sources,
he later came to realize Trump simply does not understand
non transactional life choices. It's it's just fucking cruel. I
would speculate that it has to do with him his
own insecurities about being a draft dodger as well, and

(31:17):
like devaluing the military as a way to justify that
decision in his head. But like that's just I don't know.
It's also you know, it's very classic, you know, born
on third base. Thank you, thank you hit a triple
you know what I mean. Like it, Um, that's like
him to be like, oh, well they're losers. It's like, well,
why didn't they just oh they got drafted, Well they

(31:40):
simply could have not been drafted. Why were they just
not drafted? Why did they just not I didn't go?
Why didn't they just not go? And it's like, well
that's not Look, I'm glad you have a gold shitter,
but that's not like real life for most people. Um,
I don't know. This is so weird because it's it's
discussions about the military, Like there's a whole military industrial

(32:01):
complex as some people maybe no, Like I grew up
on military basis. I my my popses in the military.
Most of my family, um are either like involved in
law or law enforcement or legal in some way, or
we are in straight up criminals. So like that that's
my family. So for me personally, it's like it doesn't
bug me in terms of you know, how dare he

(32:23):
be disrespectful? Whatever that dude sucks. We all know that
he sucks. The thing that I don't get is is
it's just we we all think that, like, this is
gonna be the thing, and this is a problem that
we have, or maybe I should have made this my
overrated We all think this is gonna be the thing,
This is gonna be the thing that finally takes down
Cheeto man, Like this is gonna be It's never going

(32:43):
to be the thing. It's never gonna be the thing.
You guys, there's always lower. There's always lower he can go.
There's always a video of more low. The only thing
that's ever gonna make it the thing is of more.
Conservatives finally decide that they are done using him as
a useful idiot and it is actually hurting them, and

(33:03):
that will be when they start turning against him. But
right now they all know that they can continue using
him to further their own agenda and then later be like, oh,
well we behind the scenes, you don't know what we said,
and did you know what I mean? And then they
can always like distance themselves from him later. That's just
it's never it's always these things of like, well, how
is it if you guys believe in God and he

(33:25):
does this, and and you guys believe in this, they
don't care. They don't care. They care about the fact
that he is pushing through the things that they want
to get pushed through, and they will do whatever leaps
and bounds need to happen to make that make sense
in their brain. And that's really it. They don't care. Yeah, yeah,

(33:46):
I mean at this point, yeah, that's to almost two
hundred thousand people have died on this person's watch, and
there's still a huge number of people that don't you know,
don't hold them accountable for there's just not there's nothing
after Herman Kane, Like that's like come on, like if that,
if that, if there was ever to be a moment

(34:08):
where people go like, hey, guess maybe, uh maybe we
should back some of this up. Maybe you know, maybe
we should uh revalue that They don't they want to
get through the things they want to get through, and
later they will find ways to justify. But like, well,
he wasn't perfect, but he gave us this and this
was godly or he gave us this and this to
blah blah, that's what it is. And it's you know,

(34:30):
and US US leftist US well liberals leftists, most of
them progressive. It's mostly like you know, oh, I can't
believe that you guys would stand by him while he
does this. Yeah we can, Why do we do that?
We believe it. It's a useless discussion to continue. And
I find it really frustrating that there's still a number

(34:52):
of news outlets that, like you're saying, Danielle, are trying
to make this thing the thing, when it's like there's
you have so many reas versus to report on other
things and to like of course, report on what the
president is doing, but the you know, I don't know,
it's it's it just seems like such a futile effort
at this point to make to try to make something

(35:13):
the thing. It's like you're saying, it's not going to
be the thing. Where can we direct our attention that
is like productive? And yeah, and like cover it, absolutely,
cover it, like it is a thing that happens. It's
important to cover it. But it's always like the odd
singer got him this time, right, Like what you don't
need to cover it for weeks and weeks trying to
be like that was the thing. It's like, it's not

(35:35):
the thing. And and there's there's a lot going on.
If the piss, if the piss tape ever comes out
and they are peeing in his mouth, it will not
be the thing. It will it's going to be it.
They are going to vote for this man no matter
what because he further's the thing he's doing. He's giving
them the things they want. Like they can say all

(35:57):
day long about how Michelle Obama this, and Michelle Obama
was arms and this thing and that thing, and then
you show you know, or or complaining about whap, and
then you show them pictures of Melania covering her whap
and they don't care. The hypocrisy is part of the point.
You get to do whatever you want and still say
whatever you want, be whoever you want. That's what being

(36:18):
rich is about. And you get to have that if
you do the things that we say you do. Yeah, bummer,
what a bummer on my birthday. No, it's definitely true.
And like part of the reason I thought this was
like worth covering was this story that I remember in
the election there he like talked shit about a gold

(36:43):
star family like family, and like his polls actually dropped
and people are like, well, that's the silver bullet, but
that was before he got elected president, so it seems
like it's not at silver a bullet. When when women

(37:04):
Will Miranda went on SNL and it was after the
ground by the pussy thing and he's saying, never going
to be president. Now about truck one of the most
embarrassing pieces of media to revisit, right up there with
Kate McKinnon singing Hallelujah Clinton. It's just like, yeah, stop

(37:25):
doing that. It's embarrassing, it's and it I don't know whatever. Well, again,
we cover all of it. It's important to cover it.
I think it's it's important to have it as a record.
I just don't like the tweets, words like boom whatever,
Like a tweet like this is not okay. This I

(37:45):
feel like this connected with your cheetah president thing. This
is not normal. This is not okay. I'm like, okay,
suggestions for a solution like or no, okay, I guess
not okay, okay, Oh my god. It's just like it's
just like a bunch of people with their hands on
their ships, like waggling their fingers. Okay, but what's like okay,

(38:09):
that's step one acknowledging that there is a problem. But
oh my god, you guys, that is not okay. That's
the voice I hear in my head years later. It's
like I was saving those tweets. I'm like, yeah, this
is not okay. But it's like, okay, continue this conversation.

(38:36):
Did you guys hear the Trump pooped in someone's mouth?
This is not okay? Like what this is not okay?
This is not normal. That was like that, Yeah, that
I don't know. Everyone went through the phase is normal,
but no normal. Now Hitler is not okay, you guys,

(38:57):
Hitler is that is not normal? Okay? So like have
you seen his speeches? He is like so wound up?
That is not right? Uh about I don't know. There's

(39:18):
um there's also this thing where he is there's with
regards to his COVID nineteen response. There's a thing that
we've had on the dock for a while that I
just wanted to touch on real quick, where it's like
convalescent plasma, which is where you take the blood plasma
from people who have had the disease and put it

(39:40):
in the veins of people who are fighting it and
it helps boost there it has been shown to help
boost their immune response. Uh, so he got on board
with that. And it's been something that's been in used
since the eighteen hundreds, so it's not like this revolutionary thing.
But he only really like started talking about it when

(40:06):
the f D A like pumped the brakes on it.
So it just underlined to me that it's not that
he wants to be he needs to be right, it's
that he needs to be right while everyone else is wrong.
Like he uh, And that's something that I guess is
just worth keeping in mind. Is he uh destroys our
country that that is why he's doing it. He's like, yeah,

(40:28):
you know, he's a total contrariyan. He's like those dudes
that tweet sports bar ball while other people are enjoying
the super Bowl, right, except with our lives, Except with
our lives. Can you guys imagine what, like, in the
best case scenario for how the election goes and Biden

(40:49):
wins and everybody agrees he has one, Like, what will
those months where he is just waiting for Biden too,
like come into off? Like what would those be? Like?
I don't like, I don't think that that's necessarily going
to happen. But we've only had that happen once in

(41:12):
my lifetime, So definitely, you guys a lifetime. Like with
with Georgie H. W. Bush, and like, the thing that
was uncommon about him was that he was very like
gracious to the Clinton administration and like was trying trying
to be helpful to them, Like what will that He'll
try to start a war essentially, like it seems like

(41:36):
it will not be good. But I wonder if if
he loses, if that is the point that his cabinet
will begin to distance themselves because he, you know, his
powers running out. I'm not I know, I don't know.
I kind of wonder if it'd be one of those
things where it's like it starts coming in that it's
looking like he's losing and he doesn't do a concession

(41:57):
speech so much as a I've done everything I want
to do, so I'm quitting anyway, Like do you can't
fire me? I quit? Like if it's one of those
it's like, oh, I'm not I'm not conceding because I
was going to win. But no other president has done
what I've done in the last four years. I guess
you're not wrong. Like although that also feels like something

(42:18):
that I the liberal Democrat inside of me keeps waiting
for it to happen. It's like, well, none of this
is okay. This is not okay. He's gonna quit, Like
it's so outside the bounds of propriety, this man must quit.
And uh it's it just seems like I I'm extremely

(42:43):
worried about what q and On will do and what
he will encourage q and On to do. Uh if
he if he is electorally defeated, Um, what does he steal?
Is not okay? Yeah, that's true, you guys. This is
like who does that? That is not okay? He is

(43:03):
going to steal some ship though, Like if he does,
if he does, if this is a peaceful transfer best
case scenario like the zero zero zero one top zero
zero one percent case like scenario, he's taken all the
laptops and forgetting that they have trackers on him, like
he's doing like all like he's forgetting that it's got
key loggers because it's the White House, like five government

(43:27):
lap to chrome book the Clinton administration when they were
a bitter about Gore losing that took all the ws
off of the computers, which is such a great metaphor
for toothless Democratic Party politicis they showed him? Yeah, he can't,

(43:51):
he can't put in part of his name. Yeah. Very symbolic,
very powerful, powerful. All right, let's take a quick break
and we'll come back and talk about children's movies. And

(44:12):
we're back, and the Smurfs is number two on the
Netflix top ten, uh and number seven, but I think
charging up the charts, I will definitely Yeah. Is Boss
Baby interactive? Jamie? Can you tell us what? What is
Boss Baby interactive? It's like the um that Black Mirror

(44:36):
episode where you like, choose your own adventure type of thing,
but for boss Babies, but this time for boss Babies.
I was very curious to watch this because I worked
on an interactive show that hasn't come out yet. So
I'm like, it's fun too because it's I don't know,
it's like the most obnoxious way to write a show

(44:59):
human possible. UM and Netflix, I don't know, it's weird.
Netflix does the does the most popular ones, but they
don't do it very well. Boss Baby the story is simple,
it is, but also kind of I was when I
was trying to recap it, I'm like, I actually don't
know if I can describe this. So the boss Baby,

(45:22):
you know him, you love him, He's got an older brother,
and then he has to win some kind of relay race.
Why I don't know. But at the relay race he
runs into several escaped convicts, one of whom and they're
mostly goofy cartoon criminals that are like I stole a cat,

(45:47):
no adults. And then one of them is Rheese Darby,
who is who's a kind of like a business he's
a white collar criminal. So so the boss Baby runs
into all these guys for some and then he finds
out there's a big government conspiracy. You're making choices this
whole time, and you're like, should I fight Reese Darby?

(46:10):
And then yeah, we should, So the Boss Baby fights
Reese Derby, and you're kind of it's kind of just
like you're playing like an old school video game where
it's Boss Baby Reese Derby, and it's like, what should
you throw at him? A diaper? You throw a diaper
at Reese Derby. That's fun, knocks him out, and then
he gives you your passive fireback. So that happens. There's

(46:32):
just this sounds like a flash game. It sounds very
like New Grounds. It is, yes, and so then nothing
happens for a while. You're kind of just like fighting
anyone you meet. And then at the end there's the
climaxes at a factory and there's some controversy with a factory,

(46:53):
and it's like a kind of a socialist statement, but
it's also really like upsetting to watch where it's this
big conspiracy where it's this sweater company, right, and Rhese
Darby is involved with the sweater company. But how do
they make the sweaters? They make babies lick cats and
then spit out the hair balls and they make the
hairballs into sweaters. Jamie, are you having an episode? What? What?

(47:19):
What did you just say? They make babies lick cats?
I had to the hair out. It was really I
wish I was. I was shocked and I'm not easily shocked.
But okay, so what it is is they have babies
on like the production line, and then what happens at

(47:40):
the factory is they there's this thing that dangles a
cookie in front of the baby's face and the baby
goes oh, and the baby gets ready to lick the cookie.
And then as we do how you consume cookies by
licking them. Babies love to eat cookies this way. And
then at the last second, as the baby is about
to lick the cookie, they switch it out and they
put a kitten there instead, and so the baby looks

(48:00):
the kitten and they go oop and then they catch
the hair in a barrel and they turned the hair
into sweaters that they sell for three hundred dollars. So
this is a world in which the Triangle shirt waste
factory never existed. No if what is the Triangle shirt
waste factory was babies and kittens, and that's what this

(48:22):
narrative explores. And then at the end you base the
whole framework of the thing. It's kind of people seem
to like it and it's like it's for kids. I
get it, but I also think that this format can
be done way better and Netflix has never done it
very well. Um, but the whole framework is that you're
playing through this entire story and then at the end

(48:43):
they tell you what your job is. They like, hire
you at the boss Baby's company. Because the boss baby
frees all the babies and he frees all the kittens
in various ways. There's kind of no way to lose there.
There's just different ways to free all the babies, and
in one my favorite way was when the babies they're like,
we're taking back the means of production, and then there

(49:08):
isn't eat the rich. But then at the end they're like,
and you're hired in HR at the boss Baby's company.
I'm like, well, that's kind of unsatisfying, but there's sixteen
different jobs that you can get at the I'm like,
do children want to be hired at a conglomerate? Like
there was an ending I got where it's like, congratulations,
you've been hired in middle management? Like, yeah, that's one

(49:32):
of the endings. I only got to eight out of
the sixteen and then I was like, I cannot conscidually
spend more time on this, but yeah, there's so it
is a weird story. I can It's like not it's
not badly written. I like there was some jokes that
I was laughing. Boss Babies always got some fun jokes.
I enjoyed the original movie. Uh. But the thing that

(49:56):
bothers me about this format that I think is kind
of lazy is that it's kind of I think people
had the same issue with Bandersnatch. Of like, there's just
there are points where you just lose, and then they
send you back and you have to watch a whole
scene again and then just make the other choice, which
is like, if you're going to make me do that.
First of all, I firmly believe no one actually wants

(50:16):
to pay attention to television, and it's frustrating to have
to pay attention to television too carefully like this, Um,
I'm not here to tell the boss baby what to do.
I trust that he's going to do what's right in
the end, because you're not in charge of the bus
Baby is in charge. He is. He is the boss
after all. I mean, no no ethical consumption under boss Baby,

(50:39):
but it is what it is. He makes his choices.
But in this one, I'm in control of the boss Baby.
But it's it sucks. There's multiple points where you there
they just send you back to the previous scene. They're like,
you lost, and that happened in Bandersnatch too, where like
if you something like if you killed your dad, They're like,
that was the wrong choice. You have to go back,
And I think that's sucks because you don't have to

(51:02):
do that, which I know, because there are ways to
write stories where that you can. It's just actually doing
what you say that the format is supposed to do,
which is like give you a ton of choices of
where stuff can go, or like, I don't know, I
think it really sucks when you can lose an interactive
that it just makes you feel like you're wasting your time.

(51:23):
I felt the same way. I think the worst one.
Did either of you watch the Kimmy Schmidt Interactive Special.
I didn't know. It's so frustratingly bad because famous people
they just shouldn't be in things like this because it's
a lot of filming and they don't want to do
a lot of filming, and so then they have like
two endings and then they're like, sorry, you should have

(51:45):
kissed Daniel Radcliffe forty five minutes ago. Go back to
the beginning. Like a special sucked. Also, I didn't want
to see Ellie Kemper kissed Daniel Radcliffe. What I've been
shipping them for so long? You didn't want it? It's gross? Uh.
I don't know. I could talk about the issues of
interactive television forever, but if you haven't, like, maybe they

(52:08):
like it. But I'm also like, I don't think kids
want to babies. I don't know. I think the boss
baby will be studied like as a cultural institution many
years into the future as like a weird expression of
like late stage capitalism. And it's just so strange. So

(52:29):
I'm glad that they're continuing to perpetuate the myth that
HR is for the employees and not for the employer.
Right there, lucky you, you get to screw your fellow
employees over. There's one ending where they're like, congratulations, you
are a recruiter. I'm like, kids don't know what a
recruiter is, and then they just tell you what a

(52:51):
recruiter is. It's like they're preparing children for an unsatisfying
life in a bizarre is based on a book that
every parent is required to purchase when you have a baby.
They're like, here, you have to buy this. It's or
else you will be you know, your child will be

(53:12):
taken away. And it's a very simple premise that is
inconceivable that they made this into a larger universe. The
idea is when a baby first comes home from the hospital,
they take over your life and start making like you
have to do very uncomfortable things much as a bad

(53:33):
boss would make you do. It's like the Baby set
up his office right in the middle of the house
and he was calling meetings all night long. And so
that's it. And then they were like, what if Baby
was like a really mean like capitalists like fortune five

(53:56):
hundred oligarch or like it's some kind of implies that
you're like that you can be born with capitalism in
your The baby, it's just what he does. He can't
help it. His family isn't teaching him. This just lives
in a in a middle class family and you know,
and but the boss baby boss is in his bones.

(54:19):
It's the weirdest ship. Uh And I don't know, Yeah,
I I no, I Okay, time for reflex. I know
someone who works on the Boss Baby TV show, and
I don't know if he worked on this, but I
do know that it is a weird room to be
in because you're constantly having to discuss how to present

(54:42):
capitalism to children. Looks, some people are born queer, some
people are born capitalists. Like that's just how it works,
that's right, Boss Baby. I don't know. And also Boss
Baby was originally Alec Baldwin and but it they just
hired an Alec Baldwin sound alike for this. I was

(55:04):
gonna yeah, no, Alec bol I mean also, it's like
that Boss Baby came out what like three ish years ago,
and already it's it's poorly the Boss Baby Extended Universe.
It's it's too much. It's yeah, I came out three

(55:27):
years ago. God, it's uh. It made like over five
hundred million dollars at the box office when it came out.
People love like, but it is just it is such
a weird property because it's like it's just making references
to Alec Baldwin's work in Glen Garry Glenn Ross for

(55:49):
a lot of the movie, and Jack Donaghey and children
famous huge in the glen Garry Glynn Ross. That's yeah, yeah,
like Glen Garry Glenn Ross for kids. My four year
old isn't as much into it anymore. But it's like
a definitely a stage two year olds go through where
they're like than trains than dinosaurs. Uh So, guys, I

(56:15):
want to talk to you about the Smurfs because it
kind of ties in and that the Smurfs are very
much from a land that doesn't have a capitalist ethos,
that has like more of a socialist ethos. They everybody
is defined by like their role that they perform within

(56:37):
the group. Sorry. Yeah, absolutely, that's one of the very
strangest parts of the Smurf world that they lean into.
They're like they make sure you know that they Smurfs
are all boys. But then the evil wizard of this
universe made a girl Smurf to like fuck them over,

(57:00):
to be like, yeah, well women are gonna yeah. Yeah,
that's where smurt Fact comes from. The main antagonist, Gargamel
uh invented her to screw over the to like screw
up the dynamics, the internal balance of the Smurfs. Um,
and they Papa Smurf through his beneficence and uh, you know,

(57:24):
he's very saintly, also wears a red hat white beard,
very uh uh Santa clause ish, but also like could
have like Lennon Vibes in there. Um, but he's very uh,
I don't know kind and like a it would make
this movie and all Smurfs movies would make sense as

(57:47):
like a hagiography of uh of Papa Smurf, Like if
Papa Smurf were a real historic figure, it's just like
Papa Smurf is the kindest, gentlest, most loving human Like.
He sacrifices him his life in this for the greater
good of the other Smurfs, and they like go back

(58:07):
to save him because they realize Papa Smurfs is the best. Um.
This is Neil Patrick Harris Smurf right, this is Neil
Patrick Harris Spurfs. So what happens? They live in a
magical forest and giant oversized mushroom houses. Uh, and Gardenmel
comes for them, so they are very like socialist they

(58:28):
It opens with him collecting berries, putting them in a
pot in the middle of town. So where they're going
to share all the smurf berries. Gargen Mel is very like,
I want to possess the Smurfs. I'm going to come
for them and turn them into a product that I
can use for power. He arrives chases them through a
portal into New York City. Um, and that's when they

(58:53):
meet Neil Patrick Harris, who is very solid performance from
him for someone who is having to, you know, act
against a bunch of tennis balls and dolls. Uh. But
it is it is shockingly recent for a movie in
which not only are we asked to believe him as

(59:14):
like a just very straight down the middle like straight
father husband, but like we demanded he pretend to be
like a straight guy for this role. Um, but he does.
He does a good job. It is like there's this
part in The Big Lebowski. Yes I'm quoting The Big Lebowski,
but they they open up talking about how the dude

(59:36):
is like the most perfectly of his time person like
he is just perfect for the era in which he exists.
I feel like this is the most two thousand and
eleven movie that's ever been made. It's so aggressively like
three D. There's like all these scenes where you're just
like zooming back and forth in between like tunnels. Like

(59:57):
it opens where you're like getting a point of view
of a are swooping around with a smurf on its
back and the Neil Patrick Harris thing. Katie Perry plays
Smurfette and at one point she says, I smurfed a
girl and I think I liked it. Uh. No, Guitar
Hero is like the big musical number is Neil Patrick
Harris rocking out with a guitar Hero and the Smurfs

(01:00:21):
are dancing. The cranky Smurf falls in love with the
Green eminem. So it's like that ad campaign they go
to a toy store and there's like an eminem setup.
It's very like corporate dists. I just think that making
candy into sexy women is some of the most right

(01:00:47):
in the entire That's what I meant. I saw a
picture of a sexy lady Hershey kissed the other day
that I was just like someone really had to be
firing on it. They're like, Oh, this beautiful curvy kiss
it's so weird, and they're like, let's give her lips
in a phone. People are gonna love this sexy piece

(01:01:08):
of candy. I just I don't know. I don't want
to suck my food. I guess I just don't. I
just don't. Yeah, but but good for the green eminem. Yeah,
she's out here. It's also that point in tech where
like we still thought Google was so like cool. Like
at one point, he like searches something and they're like,

(01:01:31):
where what are you? Where are you getting these facts?
What magical alchemy is this? He's like, I'm googling something
and they're like a Google. Uh, Like it's just cool
and adorable. Times Squares also like They're like, whoa, look
at all the lights and corporate logos. It's like, um,

(01:01:55):
they're more of a what magic land is this? Rather
than who dumped garbage all over my eyeballs? Uh? I
think is more what you would get today if you
made a thing where like people came from a socialist
utopia in the woods two times square. Like I feel
like people would be like this is so cool, um

(01:02:18):
being like why does looking burn right? Exactly? Um? But
I watched it with my uh four year old and
two year old and they, uh, it got their official
stamp of approval, which is when the credits song starts rolling,
they started dancing, uh and really have a have a blast. Uh.

(01:02:40):
There there are some like five star jokes, uh from
my four year old perspective, where in a smurf falls
into a toilet uh and that was the funniest thing
he'd ever seen. So you do you do love to
see it? So I can't be mad at this movie

(01:03:02):
five stars. Um, let me know what, Let me know
what the what the boys think of Boss Baby Interacted. Yeah,
I'm kind of excited. I'm kind of excited. There are
good jokes. Okay, I mean it sounds like I could
get a whole just like burned through a whole weekend. Uh,
with with just all those all those choices a scoring

(01:03:24):
jobs you can get. Oh, I can't wait to find
out what it means to be a comptroller. Uh. Danielle,
you said you have seen the Smurfs two thousand eleven. Yes,
I have, Yep, sure, sure did. UM It's yeah, it's

(01:03:47):
for some reason we really wanted to see um because
we've already done the Garfield, which was already like a
mixture of live action and UM animated, just because that's
the nature of it. It's the same thing when we
do like an and in the Chipmunks, that is the
nature of it, live action animated. And so someone was like, look,
we can't trust that the Smurfs can be the Smurfs
on their own, and so we have to take them

(01:04:10):
into I'm always I'm always very curious about, um, how
little people want to adapt this thing that's that's popular,
but they believe so little in it that they completely
fundamentally change the premise of what it's about. I mean,
it's like, oh, yeah, no, we love the Smurfs. Everyone

(01:04:32):
loves the Smurfs. Um, but how about we take the
Smurfs and this thing that everyone loves and we put
them in New York and see what happens. Um, yeah,
no it's not. You know, there's some cute songs. I
think Britney Spears has a song on there on either
the first one or second one, that La Law song.
They try real hard to make Smurfett real bangable, it's not.
It's one of those things. Was like, you can't even

(01:04:54):
be mad at it. It It just kind of happens to you.
It washes upon you. Um, it's not so bad that
it's not a boss Baby, which is like the movie
Boss Baby is not good. And you can spend some
real time taking it apart. Um, much like with anything
that it's my job. I find ways to take apart everything.
It's like what I do for a living. I'm a
very happy person. Um. But so you can find ways

(01:05:16):
to like take that apart. You can find ways to
take the Smurfs apart. But mostly it's just like why, yeah,
why did you make this? Because for me, I like
the socialist utopia, Like I like the idea that it's
like hey, like there's this thing and then here comes capitalism.
There there are there is a lot to be said
about the way that Gargamel is portrayed. Um in the

(01:05:36):
same way that the dwarfs in Harry Potter. There there
could be a lot to be said about them if
you decided you want to do deep dive. Uh, if
you want a deep dive on that for a bit,
but you know that's you know. But instead they were like, no,
let's give them to Neil Patrick Harris and see what
he does. Right Um and Hankers Area plays gargon mel

(01:05:57):
and I would say it's up there with a Pooh
in terms of offensive depictions of Uh, I don't know.
It's well, they'll never cop to it. When it comes
to those again, it's like that. It's like the it's
like the goblins or whatever, and it's like they'll never
cop to it. It's always like, oh, it's just a
design choice. Is a design choice. But it's just like,

(01:06:19):
I don't know, man, some of that's looking real nineteen thirties,
the word coding around these people, they won't know what
to do. Um. Also, the Neil Patrick Harris's job is
being a ad executive for a perfume company, and it's
treated as just like a noble profession. His boss is

(01:06:42):
like a monster who keeps like firing everyone, Sofia Vergara
and the victory at the end is he pleases her.
She's like, you really made me happy. You did a
good job. I'm not going to fire you. And he's
like sick, and that's like, I just want the girls
to smell good. What a noble pursuit. I mean, I

(01:07:04):
would imagine that Neil Patrick Harris, I mean inn he
would be coming from to this project basically right off
of How I Met your Mother, right like yeah, yeah,
So that's probably why he's like this lovable business goof.
That was his bread and butter at that time. Yeah,

(01:07:27):
business goof, the business goof in the early two I
want to be a business goof. He was the sexist
business goof and that was and that was how he
bought a house. And you know, yeah, we can't we
can't make it unhappy. I'm not unhappy for him. I
don't know the character and how you How I Met

(01:07:47):
your Mother was gross though, pretty gross, pretty predator, but
funny like yeah, and then later like oh but he
falls in love with the hot girl, so it's I
were forgiven she fixed him. Boom Danielle, it's been a
pleasure of having you. Boom women, fixing men, boom done

(01:08:13):
ladies was horrible catchphrase on believable. That is believable. I
thinks close enough. I think that's what it is. Now
that is buff Zina. I'm actually glad I forgot and

(01:08:37):
I don't want to know. Damn, you're about to find out.
It is ten most iconic phrases from How I Met
your mother, dann ten ten hole ones. They were like
all books, and they were day it was. I feel
like it was on wait for it? Is that what
it is? Wait for it? Legend, wait for it, dar,

(01:09:02):
that's it, you found it, you did it? A house
that bought a house. God, it's me Barney, what up? Uh?
True story was that? Was that the one you're thinking of?
That's another one he had a He was a catchphrase
machine in that in that show. Yeah really really um. Anyways, Danielle,

And is there a tweet or some other work of

(01:10:09):
social media you've been enjoying. Oh, that's exactly what I
was looking up. This tweet came out today and it's
one of the best things I've ever read at Immortal Underscore,
Graves Rights, welp at River and Mall found the Worst
Man Writes Woman excerpt ever, I'm gonna read this whole
fucking thing. It's pretty great. Hey, baby, it's happening. I'm

(01:10:30):
ovulating right now. I feel the tingling of my egg
coming out. There's more, but the most obvious change to
Felicia's body from the woman who would let me join
her in the shower was a full inch waistline added
from a burgeoning uterus filled with my bountiful overnight deposits,
imagining those seeds making way into her fallopian tubes, seeking

(01:10:53):
that most precious treasure of eggs and bringing them to
life within her flooded womb. I felt myself stiff and
once more interesting. I don't want to be alive anymore.
I'll never be stiff again. But I know lu Chu
cannot fix that. Holy sh it, I don't like that

(01:11:20):

aid in your area. We need it. We're gonna keep

you need help finding somewhere and my tweet, I have
something a little different this time, so because I was
just um in the northern Wisconsin area for a couple

(01:12:02):
of weeks. Uh, they don't have tweets up there. What
they do is wooden blocks in which there is a
joke inside. And so I have a there's I've also
got one of these in northern California. Where here it
is so you get there, it's a block with a
flap and it says where you are. So if you're

(01:12:23):
like Okay, So that's that's basically the geo tag of
the tweet. Um on top is the setup for the
joke for this, it's clip art of a cow, a turkey,
and a pig and it says there's a place for
all God's creatures. And then for the punchline, you have
to open the flap and the punchline is right next
to the potatoes and gravy ship delicious and you can

(01:12:46):
put this tweet on your shelf and enjoy the hilarity
over and over and over. Is that is a very
gross joke. But I do like the wooden block tweet format,
like there's there's there's money to be made out here.

(01:13:09):
Joke writers. We gotta get, we gotta get some leftist
joke writers working in the wooden block format. Is an
open market for it right now. It is a pretty
pretty meat and potatoes kind of energy to the Wooden Block.
But it's a good format tweets I've been enjoying. Abby
Gaffney tweeted you ever fall out with a fella and
his whole friend group and follow you like damn sorry,

(01:13:31):
Power Rangers? Uh? And then just what tweeted I guess
in this version of Batman. He kills his own parents
