How are you doing, Miles? We were just catching up.
Usually when I go away for a little bit, something
bad happens. In the past, it's been the debate and
then Trump almost getting shot. Yeah, those were the last two,
and then this time we got we got Benny Johnson
(02:28):
making up a crime. But like that's basically and I mean,
steady drift of into authoritarianism. But it didn't like speed up.
It didn't accelerate that much while I was out.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's yeah, I don't know. I wish
there was something a little more dynamic to be honest,
but it's just, you know, the slow rot continues.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
So that's right. Yeah, yeah, well it's great to be back. Okay,
this is the episode where we tell you what is trending,
but first we get to know each other a little
bit better by doing our own overrated underrated and Miles,
do you want to kick us off with something that
you think is Oh, I don't know, let's say.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Underrated underrated again. The dreams the dream world. I was
as I was moving, I got laid down to sleep
as as the Lord layeth me down to sleep at night,
and my pillow, my head hitteth thy pillow.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
I was having those like the weirdest look.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
I just have to pillow. Yeah yeah, sorry, I biblical pronouns.
I'm not good at this.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
So I.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Had these crazy ass fucking dreams.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
But this time I was I was like talking with
some like film critic people.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
This.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
I just found myself in a conversation with.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
These people and they for some reason, I was really
talking about my acting chops and they were like.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
And they were like, oh really, they didn't believe me.
They're like, you're full of shit, bro, you can't act.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
And I'm like, oh really, They're like, what if I
do a monologue for you guys right now?
Speaker 4 (04:08):
And they're like, yeah, let's see it. What's up?
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Then?
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Like it was like that kind of energy, Like it
was like a.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
Fucking rap battle. They're like, Okay, it's good, bro, Then
let me hear some fucking bars.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Made a circle for you to Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
And then so then I fucking I just I there
was some play apparently.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I just was like, this is from the lines. Yes, bro,
it was something that would happen to me in a dream,
but I wouldn't know the lines.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
This was like Mary Catherine Gallagher shit.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Where I was like, this is going to be a
dramatic monologue from the Lifetime movie Where's Emily?
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Where I will be playing.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
So in this scene, I was playing an elderly man
whose memory was slipping and was still coming to grips
with his memory something and his wife Emily, who had
passed away. He was still in this liminal space between
had she passed away?
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Or is she still there? And do I know?
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Like what what is my reality anymore? And all I
did was I was pretending to clean up and I
was talking. It was just a monologu where I'm talking
to Emily. And then the last part, the button of it,
I just go Emily, yeah, Emily, and I say it
like five times. By the fifth time, tears are streaming
down my face. Wow, And I'm going.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Emily.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
And then I ended it right there. They class immediately.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
They were into it. You have high your self esteem
than I do. In my dreams.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
I love that ship in my phones.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Bro.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
I woke up and I was like, Emily anyway, So anyway,
what it.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Was like to have dreams while you're talented, I don't.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Know any other time I've never done.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
I've usually I'm having the same dreams where you're like
completely frustrated by your lack of godlike ability. This time,
for whatever reason, I fucking crushed this monologue looking for him.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Man, congratulations, that's huge for you. Thanks.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Thanks, And then you woke up in your pillow was yeah,
because you've eaten, because you had the pillow. You were
carrying it the whole time, because I was.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
That's right. That's that's the alternate, the twist ending to
the ate a big marshmallow woke up, pillow was missing,
but it was because I was carrying the pillow the
whole time.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
That's that's wild. Congratulations on that man. That sounds very fulfilling.
Did you have like tears in your eyes when you
woke up?
Speaker 4 (06:22):
No? I did not.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
I did not, although I'm photo sensitive, so if it's
really bright when I wake up, my eyes will water.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
That's right, all right, my underrated just uh, having a
little distance from the news cycle and then like checking
back in. I think it's weird that Trump is now
against revealing the Epstein list. I just I was thinking
about it, and I was like, if anybody else in
(06:50):
the world went, like, was against the revealing of the
Epstein list, you would be like, like, if I was
against it, I was just like, I don't think. I
think we should just let bygones be bygones. The guy's dead. Yeah,
you would be like somehow, I don't know how. But
(07:11):
Jack O'Brien is on the way too hard on this.
It's like he's never been pictured with him age, but
that I like, that is obvious that he's on it,
because that's the only reason anyone would ever take that position.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
So to have him come out, it's just like, it's
just so funny to me that he just is like, yeah,
I don't know I think we should just chill out
on this thing.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Let's move it along.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Hey, man, journalists, I don't know how to crack this mystery.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
What could this possibly mean?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Could possibly be going on here? I mean, we know
that he's on the list, so that I don't know
it wouldn't get that, but probably in very innocent ways,
in very innocent ways that that does seem to be
the benefit of the doubt that he's getting. They're just like,
we don't we don't know in what context. And I
saw an article being like and he might be just
(08:14):
protecting like some of his friends too. Oh, like, that's
the most generous possible.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
So you're caping for sexual predators and like somehow there's
like a selflessness involved and you're caping for sexual predators, and.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
We should commend that.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
This dude, he is so close to sounding like one
of those people who aren't to catch a predator, because
there's a few excuses these dues give when they're on
they get caught by Chris Hansen. He goes, you have
some lemonade for me, and they're like, oh shit, and
they're like, oh, I just came here to tell them
that it's dangerous to meet people on the Internet.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
And that's Trump's about to be like, and that's what
I was. I was on the line used to don't
you go to that island?
Speaker 1 (08:53):
That was that was the entire conspiracy theory. The Q
thing was all him being like, yeah, and he was
friends with him because he was secretly undermining the whole
sexual predation.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
Thing and justice system.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Yeah, exactly. So there's that. And then I was also
I was reading this book on the history of comedy
and there's just this like throwaway thing I just dropped in.
It's like the entire history of comedy from their early
like twentieth century. I was like, I'm not gonna read
all that shit. So I dropped in in like the sixties,
and there's this story about the like the Nixon administration
(09:33):
going after like I think it was the Dick Cavot show.
You know that like one guy who like looks like
he's from Like he looks like he would be on
crooked media. You know, he's like got the he's got
the side swoop hair and just look looks like he
just like stepped out of a country club. But he
like had a competing show. There's like I've seen David
(09:56):
Bowie interviews with him. But basically his thing was that
he would interview people who were like against the war
at a time when that was like very controversial. And
there's just there's like stuff on the Nixon tapes where
Nixon's like, what's this guy's deal? Is he Jewish? Can
(10:17):
we screw him? And the and the show gets moved,
like the show is successful and they turn it from
a nightly show into a show that is one week
a month, and and the book is just like, but
they didn't succeed in canceling it. So it's it's just like,
(10:38):
I think the thing that I'm getting at with like
that's underage is just like how pervasive and insidious like
anti left wing conspiracies are throughouts history that it's just
like taken for granted that if you do any if
you just like this guy just had people on his
show that were against the Vietnam War, which now we
(11:03):
in retrospect, we're all like, we were all against that
not true. In fact, if you put it on, the
President himself would change the programming of your fucking television channel.
There's also an anecdote about how that Dick Gregory, the
comedian who you know, was very involved in the civil
(11:25):
rights movement, ran for president and you know, was completely
screwed over in the media completely ignored him. But the
FBI was like talking about like trying to get the
mafia to kill him, like just straight up like the
most just these like wild things that are conspiracy theories.
(11:46):
They are like the things that conspiracy theories are made of,
and we don't talk about them, like they just get mentioned,
like obviously that's not the point of this book that
is about the history of comedy, but just like mention
it and move along, like yeah, that's just like and.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
I tried to screw him too, and yeah, oh yeah,
just like exactly wait, why did I don't understand why
him being Jewish was something Nixon?
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Nixon was just anti Semitic and thought like he believed
in all the like fucking conspiracy theories that like Jewish
people run the media and ship like that that. Yeah,
there's wild anti semitic ship of the Nixon tapes. That
again feels like if we were really concerned about anti semitism,
(12:35):
like this would be a big part a big part
of like what did.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
What did Nixon think of Henry Kissinger.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Yeah, you know, probably said wild ship about him. Honest.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Anyway, again, all of these things continue to pulse through
the veins of the country.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yeah, and we just don't like admit it or like
you know, pay any attention to it. Like when it
when it happened in history. It's just like taken for granted.
And it's just it is the thing that everyone's always
looking for of like you know, the Satanic panic and
all these things where people are like they actually hid
messages and they were they were secretly trying to convince people.
(13:17):
It's like all that shit is happening is just happening
against people who espouse human rights right right, people who
are not well.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
I mean it shows you know, it's like the it's
it's like a it's a living organism. Like imperialistic capitalism
is just sort of like if you start seeing green
shoots of people talking about equity or how to like
end it, it's like you fucking spray round up on
that ship. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah, that's it's a living organism and it is allergic
to anything that has to do with you know, yeah,
against white supremacy. What what is something Miles that you
think is overrated?
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Overrated my way of packing. So I'm in the process
of move moving. You may notice if you see videos
I'm in another closet now, new closet.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Who is.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
But I, for being forty years old, I should be
better at packing, but I still pack like I'm a
twenty year old, like moving from like into my first
off campus apartment kind of thing where shit's just going
in trash bags. Nothing's organized, it's just like it goes
(14:29):
in a box. Because I think I get into this
sort of like decision making paralysis of if I have
to organize, then the process takes way longer because I
can't be like, well, where do.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
I put this one like loose electronic. I'm like, fuck it.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Everything in my vision right here is going in this
fucking box now. And corner box, yeah, exactly, corner box.
And then my labeling system is fucked. I put I
have one box that says miss misc bullshit, miscellaneous bullshit.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
There's a bunch so there's a cutting board in there.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
So my mill boxes dude cables And I'm like, uh,
I just have forty boxes that say misk on them.
I know exactly, and I don't know why. I'm like, oh,
this is fine because I think I'm in such The
real sort of stress inducing part is packing all of
your shit. It's like, how do I make everything that
(15:22):
I in this place disappear into a box? And I
don't think about the unpacking part where now I may
not I've I may not have headphones tomorrow or something,
or a fucking power cable for my computer.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
But I'll figure it out. I'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
I'll figure it out. So anyway, being just organized is better.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
But my freestyle way of packing very fucking overrated, and
I have to I have to grow up.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
I'm too old for this.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
I'm in New York City right now and I packed
all my like recording equipment and just want to show you.
The thing that I packed it in is thank you Bodega,
Thank you Beg. But I got from my parents' house
when I was there last week. That's where all the
chords were wound up. I mean they were in an
organized fashion, but they were in a boudeka. Thank you back.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Good for you for em putting him in a bag
when I traveled a record shit is just stuffed in
a backpack strewn takes me three hours.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
So untangle all the cables.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
All right, Uh my overrated. I have you ever flown Frontier?
Yeah yeah, I enough said, all right front It was
like a weird psychological pressure test, like to be like,
can we make we make this person go like lose it?
(16:41):
They So I flew back from the East Coast with
my kids solo and my my youngest had to go
to the bathroom so many times. One of the bathroom,
one of the three bathrooms on the plane was closed,
like they can do about that. I think somebody went
in there and uh had a problem. Yeah yeah, it
(17:02):
didn't absolutely had.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
I was on a flight where we couldn't take off
because someone did a paint job so bad before, like
as the.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
Plane was boarding.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
It delayed our takeoff by forty minutes because whatever happened
in there was.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
It was yeah yeah, crime against humanity? Yeah they yeah,
what so this is not this is no one's fault, right,
rather than like whoever decided to make this airline that
they were like that so that this will be one
hundred dollars cheaper than the other tickets, sometimes more, but
it will be harrowing.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Yeah yeah yeah, and there.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Yeah, there's just the poor people who work on the
plane like, you know, the people, just anybody trying to sleep,
anyone who had the idea of sleeping. I think whoever
designed those fascist benches that are designed to keep unhoused
people from sleeping on them, I think design the frontier seats.
(18:03):
There's like a but you like land, You're like, okay,
finally that ordeals over. You have to like take a
bus that like takes an.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Hour because you're not at l A X.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
You're gonna actually not officially LAX won't officially let us
fly out of there. Yeah, you know, I don't know, man.
It was just I wonder if they named the airline
because traveling in a wagon train during the Frontier era
is the only comp that like makes this make sense? Right,
(18:35):
you know, right right right? If you if you're thinking
in those terms, if you're thinking about the Oregon Trail, uh,
you're gonna be all right.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Because then it's not it's not it's not bad.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
If you're the Captain's like I have cholera, folks, I'm
gonna have to land the plane and someone's gonna have
to fix our wheel before we we have to we
have to forge this thing across our river really quick.
Anybody got strong arms, and I think you can hunt
for squirrel on the plane.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
You are.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
That's the only way to eat anything. You only, it's
only refreshing. It's like, well, here's a musket and for
loose squirrels. Yeah, go ahead about it, you know, solve
a couple problems.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
Don't worry.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
The muzzle velocity isn't enough to damage the fuselage and
cause a pressure issue.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
Don't worry.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
It's actually a pop gun. That's It's either that or
your hands. Yeah. Anyways, shout out to the people who
work on Frontier, because that's got to be harrowing anybody
who's flying it. It was just it was it was
kind of a nice community experience because like everybody was
in it together and everyone was just like openly being
(19:42):
like fuck. I mean, it was the only one that
I could afford. Uh, And we'll never do it again.
I will just not go on vacation in the future.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
I will just just just walk, man, take a bus.
Like honestly, uh, well, because all those front those all
so many of those budget airlines, like the ticket is
cheaper and there it's like, oh, you want to check
a bag that's ninety two dollars and You're like, what
the fuck I'm back to like a regular ticket price. Now, yam,
you look thirsty, man, you bet your eyes are really red.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
You look super dehydrated. You look jaundiced.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Anyways, Uh, let's take a quick break and we'll be
right back. And we're back. We're back, We're back, And
(20:36):
I know I know nothing happened because when I left
on Monday, we were talking about the upcoming Trump summit.
We were saying, man, I bet he talks tough in
the lead up to it and then does whatever Putin
wants him to do what he gets there. And boy,
howdy do.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
You that the only people Trump doesn't pump fake on
or like black people, poor people and LGBTQ people, I think,
and people of color generally immigrants, Like it's the people
in his own country, Like he'll brutalize the innocent working people.
When it comes to really doing anything like geopolitical, he's like, literally, rent, Yeah,
(21:14):
this dude got nothing done. I mean, if anything, it
was a it was actually a negative. It was a
win for Putin.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
But I think anyone who's yeah, the media narrative that
this was like a toss up or like that nothing
was accomplished.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Shook ass media, dude.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Yeah, that's incorrect, Like that he by by having the
meeting in the US, by like rolling out literally a
red carpet, by then coming away and basically the thing
that Putin wanted heading in, which is like we'll talk
about a peace deal without a cease fire, and you
(21:55):
know all the things.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
He just came right, Trump quote very severe consequence consequences
for Putin if he refuses ceasefire. Then after it, Trump
drops these fire demand, echoing Putin's position and jittering Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
Wow wow wow wow wow wow wow. So yeah, he
absolutely gave Putin what he wanted.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
He fucking like the way when even Vladimir Putin got
off the plane, it was like he looked like a
Beatles groupie.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
True, he like like, what.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
The fuck is this?
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Yeah, it's and these are like supposed to be the
two things that Trump actually respect, the only two things
that he actually like concerns himself with are like, you know,
power and evil, you know. Yeah, and he's anytime he's
(22:49):
in a position against somebody like this, it's just but
specifically Putin, Yeah, he just he does. It's a little
a little bit of the old Cat and Mouse where
the mouse just like crawls up to the cat and
rolls over and shows his belly.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Yeah, totally famous gambit and then brings as side of
dipping sauce too, just with them.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
If you if you want.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
I know, I know I'm unseasoned.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
I just know that you liked it last time.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
So yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this is very good. This
is very good. So yeah. The whole thing he even
like went around like it was just so stupid. The visuals.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
He's like and these are my planes, like he was
doing like weirdo fucking show and tell, and Pun's like, whatever, bro,
let's just get to the part where I tell you
what I want and you accept it and I get
the fuck out of here.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
Yeah, and that's pretty much what happened.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Like they were supposed to have a lunch and all
this other shit shit got scrapped. The fucking press conference
that was supposed to happen was very short, and yeah,
just Vladimir got what he wanted in that. Again, Trump
is not really putting any conditions for a ceasefire. He's
just saying, I guess yeah, we'll just do a piece deal.
(23:59):
Because again for Pooh and that means he can continue
attacking Ukraine if there's no ceasefire and they're quote working
on a piece deal, that just means the goalpost just
get shifted constantly and he can just basically keep like
there's really.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
No end in sight.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
And so yeah, I mean a lot of people on
their like even Marco Rubio, who is it's just so
funny to see these people like Marco Rubio who were
pre prior to Trump such staunch anti Russia sort of politicians,
and now he's just having to bite his tongue off
in these meetings and then act like it was an
(24:32):
actual victory for the US when in Yeah, Rubio went
on one of the weekend shows and you know, somebody
was like, the President went into that meeting saying he
wanted a ceasefire and there would be consequences if they
didn't agree on a ceasefire in that meeting, and they
didn't agree to a ceasefire, where are the consequences?
Speaker 1 (24:52):
And Rubio was like, that's not the aim. Oh. The
guy was like, oh, but the President said that was
the aim. So huh m hm, that's like, according, that's
like your opinion, man, exactly exactly that that's it.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
I think the other things they were saying was that
because Trump is technically taller than Vladimir Putin, that that
was also a big win because it was the two
biggest alphas on the planet. Mm hmmm.
Speaker 4 (25:21):
I don't know what alpha means in this context.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
I think maybe just really tiny men who lash out
in anger whenever their power is threatened.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
I guess it is like like the movie Step Brothers.
That's the level at which these people like understand, yeah,
well to see and like how it is like all right,
let's go back.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
You want to see my drum set. You want to
see how many push ups ke you do?
Speaker 4 (25:46):
When stealth bomber looked, there goes, there goes.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
There were people who are like, that's so baller that
Trump had the stealth bomber fly over as as Putin
got there, and it's like it's stupid, it's fucking dumb, Like,
I don't know what you think this is like actually
when when the result of this was fucking not the
outcome that anyone, especially Ukraine, who this whole thing is about,
not fucking you know, Trump's uh sort of show and
(26:11):
tell with war machines, but everything there were so many
There was like also this like the reports or that,
like after the meeting, all of the advisors came out
like quote ashen faced and like the Trump side, Yeah,
what that seems to be how everybody responds when they
see them. Remember there was that like dinner they had
(26:32):
together that Malani was there for when during the first administration,
and like everybody came away with that just being like
what the fuck was going on?
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Because like they like went away against the you know,
advice of anybody who like knows anything about diplomacy. He
like wouldn't listen to any of his advisors and like
went somewhere else with Putin to like have a conversation.
Speaker 5 (26:56):
Yeah, everyone was like, that's fucking what. So weird, it's
so weird. It's so weird, Like I think something's going
on maybe, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
That's why it's weird to me.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
It's also wild to me that Milania Trump maybe had
more fucking uh just like resolved to do something because
she had Trump hand like a letter over to Putin
that she had written.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
And she was like, hey, come on, now, let's protect
the children in Vladimir. Like even Trump like like like
I don't know, do whatever you want to know.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
This is from my wife, you know, makes the like
chattering motion with his hand. You know. Uh, that's that
is funny that his wife is like, I here, actually
I don't trust you to deliver the message. Just hand
this to this.
Speaker 4 (27:43):
Thing to him. Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
And just like all the embarrassing other shit that like,
like the trove of documents that were left behind in
a hotel where people are like eight pages miles.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
They were eight pages and they were the Trump administration.
It was like it was like a lunch menu or something.
In fact, it was full of previously undisclosed and potentially
sensitive details about the meeting. They left it in a
public hotel printer like the business center. The menu contained
(28:18):
names and phone numbers of three US staff members, plus
the names of thirteen US and Russian state leaders, and
it had a cheat sheet for how to pronounce complicated
Russian names, including President Pooh ten poo all capitalized tih.
They gave them the yeah exactly, And that's that's like
(28:40):
something funny that you could bring up to it.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
Another thing in that document that was talking about how
they were going to give Trump wanted to give Putin
like a golden eagle thing like a like a statue
like chatchkey, and.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Then it was rejected as like two thirsty.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Yeah, they're just like, sorry, bro, we got we got
a lot of other things to do.
Speaker 4 (28:58):
Bro, We're out of here. And they're like, oh, but
you're eagle.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
He's just standing there like the otter with a guitar holding.
Speaker 6 (29:05):
Oh hey, Jesus Christ is somebody who needs all words
written phonetically with pauses built in on my scripts.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
I'll give them a pass on this, but okay, how
do you not know how to pronounce Vladimir Putin's name?
Speaker 4 (29:21):
I think it's.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Probably just standard operating procedure for like everything, even if
it's a given, just so no one's caught off guard
because everyone's a fucking idiot in this administration.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
So also, I don't know if you're in the build up,
he kept calling.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Fuck what he kept calling one of the I think
he kept calling it like he was kept referring to Leningrad.
Trump did, and they're like, what the crazy billy jewel
song he was like in Leningrad? And they're like, dude,
what year does he think he's in? Does he knows
it's called Saint Petersburg or is he still in the
fucking Cold War right now? Because this guy's time traveling
(30:01):
with his decaying brain.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
Man, So, now what they're they're all gonna meet. Trump's
gonna meet with Zelensky. He's gonna yell at him for
not being grateful enough. Yeah, that's probably you're listening to
this if you're listening to it when it drops.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
So yeah, So Monday, Zelensky's meeting with Trump along with
all of like the European power players like Keir Starmer,
Macron Maloney, Mrs from Germany, the head of the EU,
the NATO secretary, because they were all basically before the
call time. Trump is like, dude, ceasefire, don't just fucking
let this thing go to straight up peace talks, like
(30:36):
we need the ceasefire to be able to end the
fighting and actually get some stability going.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
And so now he did the absolute opposite.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
They're all just like, okay, so now we have to
go be face to face and be like, uh, what
the fuck was that about.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
So I don't know what exactly is going to come
of that.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
I know Trump has demanded Zelenski wear a suit this time.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
There were reports that Zelenski will be wearing something in
the style of a suit.
Speaker 4 (31:04):
I think maybe that's a suit style of jacket.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
Yeah yeah, oh my god, t shirt ultimate troll job.
It's like, you're happy now, bitch, you like this motherfucker anyway,
If I look, if we're just going to be joking
around being a clown show to everything, then why can't
I wear my tuxedo shirt? But yeah, I mean essentially,
Zolski's like, dude, I'm not going to fucking seed any land.
(31:29):
I'm I'm going to get the borders of the country
as they were established. We're not giving up land to
fucking Vladimir Putin. You can't make me fucking do this.
I mean, the one benefit here is that like the
EU now like they have no other choice but to
really be like, bro, we can't, like if you think
about the trade deal and how they're like, we're going
to spend seven hundred and fifty billion dollars in the
(31:52):
US to try and like get because the whole they
wanted to butter Trump up to keep him engaged in
the Ukraine stuff. But now this guy has no fucking
like he does whatever Vladimir Putin wants. I think now
they have to go probably look him in the eye
and really know for sure.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
They're like, okay, so we really have to.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
Like so there's nothing there. It's all just yeah, So
you did the opposite of what you said you were
gonna do.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
Is that I didn't. No, I didn't. I said I
did exactly what I did.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
I said I told I told Vladimir whatever you want, baby,
I'll help you whatever you need.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
There was a liberator who read him saying, I'll help
you right away, like the opening gambit, opening gambit, here
are my cards? Do you want to like? I just
feel like it would be cooler if you could see
my cards and my cards are. Let's let's get you
that pot.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
Yeah right, Yeah, nice to see you, President Trump.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
I'll help you whatever you want right now. I'll fucking
do it. I'll fucking kiss you. I don't care, man,
I'll help you whatever.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
You need, right here in front of God and everyone.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
So, yeah, the EU learning in real time of what
countless others have have learned about Donald Trump.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
It doesn't matter if you fucking butter this guy up.
He will fuck you over because he It's not.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
About relationships or any kind of social like any kind
of agreement.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
There's a thing in sports where like a team that
like is really good at pressing right, like who like
you know, full court press is like when you play defense,
like right when they inbound the ball on the other
side of the court in basketball, Like a team that
is really good at that is actually often very susceptible
to that. If you like do it back to them,
(33:36):
they like kind of free. And I feel like that's
a little bit what you have with Trump and Putin,
where like yeah, like hearing the EU being like, yeah,
we'll give you all, like all these concessions. Just don't
like that. That's fucking stupid. That sounds like what Trump
would do with Putin, where they're just like conceding to him,
you know what I mean. Like it's that same like
(33:56):
bully shit. But it's just Trump is not good at it.
When it happens to him, he just like is so easy.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
What's going on with this press? I could barely get
the ball in exactly.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
I didn't prepare for this running down his legs, but
I was the one. Anyways, Uh, we'll see how it goes.
Probably good.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
I think he'll salvage it and we'll all be in
a good place and Russia won't get exactly what they want,
not exactly percent.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Did you see there was a fucking uh there's already
a clip of like the Russians captured like an a
PC from the from the Ukrainians and American ape and
then they started flying an American and Russian flag on
top of it, like while they were just marauding around
like you, they're.
Speaker 1 (34:42):
Just like chanting USA as they take Kiev. Boy, all right,
let's take a quick break. We'll come back and we'll
talk about some ship that's not this and we're back. Wow.
(35:03):
And big news for me, a young a young gen
z or that they're finally accepting our influence and putting
skibbety in the Cambridge Dictionary.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
I think that's more Gen alpha. You're stop stop acting older.
Speaker 4 (35:22):
Than you are. You know you're in Gen alpha.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
That's true. That's what you keep forgetting. That is true.
Thirteen Uh so last year they added the ick and boop.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
I was like, wait, boop like booping on someone's nose.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
It's just booping on someone's nose. Which I was like,
all right, well that should have been in there a
long time ago. Yeah, yeah, yeh then he booped me,
you know, give me a little boop. Anyways, they argue
that these are they're trying to pick the words that
have quote real staying power. Yeah, they've added some TikTok
(36:01):
friendly words, including trad wife. I agree, delulu, which is
like delusional, skibbity, which, as our writer Jam points out,
that's gonna make some intergenerational scrabble games go off the rails.
Oh yeah, Brian editor said, next year chimpanzini bananini of course.
(36:25):
And and they've also done broligarchy, which I don't know
that I've ever heard that one used casually in a conversation.
It's definitely like for online political discourse. I see broligarchy,
but I don't feel like I hear.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Kids being like in the fucking brologarchy, dude out of control.
That one just feels like more uh Cambridge Dictionary, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
all right.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Skibbity uh is because I did want to like, it's
a nonsense word, right, Like it's a word they can
have a lot of different meanings. Was curious what Cambridge
was going to do with that. The definition is a
word that can have different meanings such as cool, or bad,
or it can be used with no real meaning as
(37:13):
a joke.
Speaker 4 (37:15):
What are the examples right here?
Speaker 1 (37:19):
Yes? Yeah, so one example they use is what the
skibbitty are you doing? Other examples the use cases skibbity, skibbity, skibbity.
A boy around seven sang to himself as he dribbled
a soccer ball. What next use case? What the skibby
are you doing? Which I already Wentever, next use case?
(37:40):
What was the most skibbety part that doesn't tell you shit.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
Because they are saying good or bad?
Speaker 1 (37:46):
Here? Okay, next use case. In the viral song, the
words you're so pretty were replaced by you're so skibbity,
and then the final one that I feel like it
is really cementing them as getting it knowing the kids
and you know, I'm sure will win the respect of
their children, which has to have been the point here
(38:09):
final use case that wasn't very skibbty, riz of you
Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Why did they think is this just like the death
of dictionaries or like they're lowering themselves to have to
be like, well, we got to get there, We got
to get the youth into what words mean again. So
let's let's give them a little treat by putting their
nonsense words in here.
Speaker 1 (38:29):
Yeah, I think they might. You know, all dictionaries now
have like online versions, and they obviously see spikes when
they do some shit like this, and so they've they've
gone that They've probably hired some people who used to
work at BuzzFeed to be like, right, how do we
juice the numbers? Baby?
Speaker 2 (38:50):
I wonder, like, what's urban dictionaries definition of skivity usually
word to start a conversation, a conversation filled with brain rot. Okay,
this is written by someone who's like these fucking kids.
Person one skivity person too. Don't worry, my bro, I'll
get you out of Ohio with my one two buckle,
my shoe typers.
Speaker 4 (39:07):
Well, we busted down Person one. Kill yourself. Okay, yeah, that's.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
My covers realistic at least.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
All right.
Speaker 1 (39:18):
Weekend box office report, there's some reports that Sidney Sweeney's
new movie was flop City did Bad, And then there
are also reports coming out saying actually, it wasn't a flop,
it was actually a art house movie. I think the
confusion comes from the fact that it came out on
(39:41):
one thousand screens, which is kind of a wide release,
like over a thousand screens. The headlines tried to make
it about the American Eagle controversy. I think it probably
had more to do with the fact that, like, I
think they could get it on a bunch of screens
for cheap, and they did that because it like free,
but they also spent Like I did not know this
(40:04):
movie existed other than the fact that, like there was
the controversy. And then the next time she was seen publicly,
it was at the premiere for this movie, and I
was like, Okay, there's a movie coming out that wearables
did not exist.
Speaker 4 (40:17):
The outfit was. It was really an l for her.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
The movie, which is a heist movie, made five hundred
thousand dollars, opened in sixteenth place, which is lower than
the annual release of the Grateful Dead movie, which is
the thing I didn't even know about that I also
didn't know about.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
I guess, but yeah, I don't know. It's hard to
say that it was because of the Janes.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
No, dude, not enough people were fucking not enough people
that overlap of people.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
No, no, no, no, it's.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
I mean everything was. I feel like even before the
ads there was like.
Speaker 4 (40:56):
No one was like this shit's gonna be the sickest
fucking movie ever.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
It seemed pretty tepid. But oh man, now now I
have to go see it.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
I mean it's got Paul Walker Houser in it. He's
usually he doesn't miss that often Walker Paul Walker Howser.
Isn't that?
Speaker 4 (41:15):
Oh god?
Speaker 2 (41:18):
Okay, Jack, I thought I thought it was her Houser.
Oh god, I thought he was Risen. He he was
risen on screen.
Speaker 4 (41:28):
Hus give me giv.
Speaker 1 (41:31):
Shoes my shirt. See we get it, guys, kids, we
get kids.
Speaker 4 (41:38):
We get it.
Speaker 2 (41:39):
Dude. Jack didn't grow up in Skimmy, Ohio for nothing.
Speaker 4 (41:41):
Dude, I sty Dayton.
Speaker 1 (41:43):
I still haven't seen weapons. I am excited to see that.
Did you see that yet?
Speaker 2 (41:46):
No, we have to go see I think we have
to see it together because her Majesty ain't that. He's like, bro,
I don't want to see the fucking monster children in
the night. Everyone on the team that that that works
on the show. Everyone's fucking seen it except us, and
everyone's like, oh brawl, dude, it.
Speaker 1 (42:04):
Is one of those like everybody on the internet has
also seen it. Like I know, just Ran, I'm trying
not to learn anything about it, but I know about
that like hot dog lunch that like don't even know
that you don't know that. There's just I have no idea.
Speaker 4 (42:21):
I think you should leave.
Speaker 1 (42:23):
I have no idea what the context is, but like
somebody has apparently served a lunch tray that has like
five hot dogs and uh chips with like onion dipping sauce,
you know, potato chips with that like a sour kaream
onneon yes sour cream Union dep Anyway, Like I know
that it's just a moment that happens that people are
(42:47):
like to live in the movie weapons, Oh, that's so funny.
Speaker 4 (42:51):
That's like me, like dude.
Speaker 2 (42:52):
And then there's that one part I think like a
red Mustang drives by in the foreground of.
Speaker 1 (42:56):
A shot, so you can red mustangs. I did just
see Final Desk Nation, Bloodlines, Good Time, and there's a
there's a red old timey car might be a Mustang,
probably not. I'm not a car guy. Leave me alone, guys,
but uh watched that watch bo is Afraid? Watched uh.
Speaker 4 (43:16):
The plane?
Speaker 1 (43:17):
Yeah, man, I've had a lot. I've been clocking plane.
Well you flew solo, yeah to La because I had to,
you know, bring the kids back. My life was already
back because she's a fucking or whatever. So flew the
kids back, and then yesterday I flew right back to
New York because I had to be here for a
(43:38):
couple becatting things New York City, New York City. Man,
have you seen there's so many of these Eric Adams
like things that are going viral where people are like,
I can't believe this is like part of his campaign.
And it's just like a video of him addressing the
camera describing like a getting caught in a bird trap,
(44:01):
and it's so obvious that like someone has just done
a AI version of his voice and like put it
over an image of him talking. Like the voice and
the video like don't match up in any way. But
everyone's like, man, this guy's so wacky. I was like, no,
somebody's just making silly videos of him being silly.
Speaker 4 (44:24):
Wait, what are this is? This is real shit or
this is just some shit?
Speaker 1 (44:27):
Seeing people fall for this thing that's like clearly fake
AI videos of.
Speaker 4 (44:32):
It. They're just because he's so dumb that it's yeah.
Speaker 1 (44:36):
Yeah, And I just think it's unfair to him and
people need to give him a chance. I also, when
I got in a New York City cab last night,
there was an ad for I think they were like
trying to skirt the fact that this was basically political
like ad placement that was like, see me talk to
Eric Adams was like some morning show, and then you
(44:56):
just like was a campaign ad with like him talking
about how he'd like leaned up the subways or whatever.
Speaker 2 (45:01):
I cleaned up the subways with my own broom. Okay,
so Jesus Christ, Eric ah Man. Well, I mean the
in taxi entertainment was always lacking.
Speaker 4 (45:14):
I gotta say it.
Speaker 2 (45:15):
I'm glad at least it's filled with propaganda now, as
the sci fi films have foretold.
Speaker 1 (45:20):
That's right. Finally, Tom Cruise has reportedly turned down Trump's
Kennedy Center Honor, which has freedom room for kiss and
the guy from Phantom of the Opera.
Speaker 4 (45:31):
Great. Great.
Speaker 1 (45:32):
Some people on the left are like, yeah, Tom Cruise
is one of us, you know, he's generally a political
and was just like, ah, sorry, sorry, scheduling conflicts. But
one other possible reason that isn't going to make any
one happier, at least not that many people happy, is
President Trump has thrown his support behind removing the Church
(45:55):
of Scientology's tax exempt status.
Speaker 4 (45:59):
Oh no, well, god, I won't be celebrating that. I
want that. I want Scientology to be thriving.
Speaker 1 (46:06):
That's right. Yeah, I have such a great.
Speaker 4 (46:08):
Track record of letting journalists do their things.
Speaker 1 (46:10):
Strange bedfellows, Am I right? Anyways, hut Church of Scientology
trump a big orange cheeto, and I'm here for it.
Speaker 4 (46:19):
Could you imagine Jesus? Maybe pretty soon? Pretty soon?
Speaker 1 (46:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (46:25):
Okay, well, good for you, Tom Cruise. But yeah, realistically.
Speaker 1 (46:30):
That is so funny, Like that's it is like Tom
Cruise is like kind of Hulk Hogan codd a little
bit like just like his position in the Zech like
as an icon, it's just like very I don't know,
I associate him with that part of history.
Speaker 2 (46:49):
If you if you flattened the eighties like into like
a couple pictures of like pop culture moments, Tom cruise
face has to be part of that.
Speaker 4 (46:58):
Hulk Hogan's face has to be part of that.
Speaker 1 (47:01):
And also like if you put if you just like
added a background in both of those cases, an American
flag would probably be the thing that makes sense, you know,
right right right, right right, and Tom Cruise like top
Gun and all that shit and all that shit and
all that shit.
Speaker 4 (47:18):
Fucking cocktail or whatever.
Speaker 1 (47:20):
Bro is a bar behind Yeah, motherfucking bars. All right,

then Trump almost getting shot. Yeah, those were the last two,
and then this time we got we got Benny Johnson
(02:28):
making up a crime. But like that's basically and I mean,
steady drift of into authoritarianism. But it didn't like speed up.
It didn't accelerate that much while I was out.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's yeah, I don't know. I wish
there was something a little more dynamic to be honest,
but it's just, you know, the slow rot continues.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
So that's right. Yeah, yeah, well it's great to be back. Okay,
this is the episode where we tell you what is trending,
but first we get to know each other a little
bit better by doing our own overrated underrated and Miles,
do you want to kick us off with something that
you think is Oh, I don't know, let's say.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Underrated underrated again. The dreams the dream world. I was
as I was moving, I got laid down to sleep
as as the Lord layeth me down to sleep at night,
and my pillow, my head hitteth thy pillow.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
I was having those like the weirdest look.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
I just have to pillow. Yeah yeah, sorry, I biblical pronouns.
I'm not good at this.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
So I.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Had these crazy ass fucking dreams.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
But this time I was I was like talking with
some like film critic people.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
This.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
I just found myself in a conversation with.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
These people and they for some reason, I was really
talking about my acting chops and they were like.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
And they were like, oh really, they didn't believe me.
They're like, you're full of shit, bro, you can't act.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
And I'm like, oh really, They're like, what if I
do a monologue for you guys right now?
Speaker 4 (04:08):
And they're like, yeah, let's see it. What's up?
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Then?
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Like it was like that kind of energy, Like it
was like a.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
Fucking rap battle. They're like, Okay, it's good, bro, Then
let me hear some fucking bars.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Made a circle for you to Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
And then so then I fucking I just I there
was some play apparently.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I just was like, this is from the lines. Yes, bro,
it was something that would happen to me in a dream,
but I wouldn't know the lines.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
This was like Mary Catherine Gallagher shit.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Where I was like, this is going to be a
dramatic monologue from the Lifetime movie Where's Emily?
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Where I will be playing.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
So in this scene, I was playing an elderly man
whose memory was slipping and was still coming to grips
with his memory something and his wife Emily, who had
passed away. He was still in this liminal space between
had she passed away?
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Or is she still there? And do I know?
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Like what what is my reality anymore? And all I
did was I was pretending to clean up and I
was talking. It was just a monologu where I'm talking
to Emily. And then the last part, the button of it,
I just go Emily, yeah, Emily, and I say it
like five times. By the fifth time, tears are streaming
down my face. Wow, And I'm going.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Emily.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
And then I ended it right there. They class immediately.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
They were into it. You have high your self esteem
than I do. In my dreams.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
I love that ship in my phones.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Bro.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
I woke up and I was like, Emily anyway, So anyway,
what it.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Was like to have dreams while you're talented, I don't.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Know any other time I've never done.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
I've usually I'm having the same dreams where you're like
completely frustrated by your lack of godlike ability. This time,
for whatever reason, I fucking crushed this monologue looking for him.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Man, congratulations, that's huge for you. Thanks.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Thanks, And then you woke up in your pillow was yeah,
because you've eaten, because you had the pillow. You were
carrying it the whole time, because I was.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
That's right. That's that's the alternate, the twist ending to
the ate a big marshmallow woke up, pillow was missing,
but it was because I was carrying the pillow the
whole time.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
That's that's wild. Congratulations on that man. That sounds very fulfilling.
Did you have like tears in your eyes when you
woke up?
Speaker 4 (06:22):
No? I did not.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
I did not, although I'm photo sensitive, so if it's
really bright when I wake up, my eyes will water.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
That's right, all right, my underrated just uh, having a
little distance from the news cycle and then like checking
back in. I think it's weird that Trump is now
against revealing the Epstein list. I just I was thinking
about it, and I was like, if anybody else in
(06:50):
the world went, like, was against the revealing of the
Epstein list, you would be like, like, if I was
against it, I was just like, I don't think. I
think we should just let bygones be bygones. The guy's dead. Yeah,
you would be like somehow, I don't know how. But
(07:11):
Jack O'Brien is on the way too hard on this.
It's like he's never been pictured with him age, but
that I like, that is obvious that he's on it,
because that's the only reason anyone would ever take that position.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
So to have him come out, it's just like, it's
just so funny to me that he just is like, yeah,
I don't know I think we should just chill out
on this thing.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Let's move it along.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Hey, man, journalists, I don't know how to crack this mystery.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
What could this possibly mean?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Could possibly be going on here? I mean, we know
that he's on the list, so that I don't know
it wouldn't get that, but probably in very innocent ways,
in very innocent ways that that does seem to be
the benefit of the doubt that he's getting. They're just like,
we don't we don't know in what context. And I
saw an article being like and he might be just
(08:14):
protecting like some of his friends too. Oh, like, that's
the most generous possible.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
So you're caping for sexual predators and like somehow there's
like a selflessness involved and you're caping for sexual predators, and.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
We should commend that.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
This dude, he is so close to sounding like one
of those people who aren't to catch a predator, because
there's a few excuses these dues give when they're on
they get caught by Chris Hansen. He goes, you have
some lemonade for me, and they're like, oh shit, and
they're like, oh, I just came here to tell them
that it's dangerous to meet people on the Internet.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
And that's Trump's about to be like, and that's what
I was. I was on the line used to don't
you go to that island?
Speaker 1 (08:53):
That was that was the entire conspiracy theory. The Q
thing was all him being like, yeah, and he was
friends with him because he was secretly undermining the whole
sexual predation.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
Thing and justice system.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Yeah, exactly. So there's that. And then I was also
I was reading this book on the history of comedy
and there's just this like throwaway thing I just dropped in.
It's like the entire history of comedy from their early
like twentieth century. I was like, I'm not gonna read
all that shit. So I dropped in in like the sixties,
and there's this story about the like the Nixon administration
(09:33):
going after like I think it was the Dick Cavot show.
You know that like one guy who like looks like
he's from Like he looks like he would be on
crooked media. You know, he's like got the he's got
the side swoop hair and just look looks like he
just like stepped out of a country club. But he
like had a competing show. There's like I've seen David
(09:56):
Bowie interviews with him. But basically his thing was that
he would interview people who were like against the war
at a time when that was like very controversial. And
there's just there's like stuff on the Nixon tapes where
Nixon's like, what's this guy's deal? Is he Jewish? Can
(10:17):
we screw him? And the and the show gets moved,
like the show is successful and they turn it from
a nightly show into a show that is one week
a month, and and the book is just like, but
they didn't succeed in canceling it. So it's it's just like,
(10:38):
I think the thing that I'm getting at with like
that's underage is just like how pervasive and insidious like
anti left wing conspiracies are throughouts history that it's just
like taken for granted that if you do any if
you just like this guy just had people on his
show that were against the Vietnam War, which now we
(11:03):
in retrospect, we're all like, we were all against that
not true. In fact, if you put it on, the
President himself would change the programming of your fucking television channel.
There's also an anecdote about how that Dick Gregory, the
comedian who you know, was very involved in the civil
(11:25):
rights movement, ran for president and you know, was completely
screwed over in the media completely ignored him. But the
FBI was like talking about like trying to get the
mafia to kill him, like just straight up like the
most just these like wild things that are conspiracy theories.
(11:46):
They are like the things that conspiracy theories are made of,
and we don't talk about them, like they just get mentioned,
like obviously that's not the point of this book that
is about the history of comedy, but just like mention
it and move along, like yeah, that's just like and.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
I tried to screw him too, and yeah, oh yeah,
just like exactly wait, why did I don't understand why
him being Jewish was something Nixon?
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Nixon was just anti Semitic and thought like he believed
in all the like fucking conspiracy theories that like Jewish
people run the media and ship like that that. Yeah,
there's wild anti semitic ship of the Nixon tapes. That
again feels like if we were really concerned about anti semitism,
(12:35):
like this would be a big part a big part
of like what did.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
What did Nixon think of Henry Kissinger.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Yeah, you know, probably said wild ship about him. Honest.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Anyway, again, all of these things continue to pulse through
the veins of the country.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yeah, and we just don't like admit it or like
you know, pay any attention to it. Like when it
when it happened in history. It's just like taken for granted.
And it's just it is the thing that everyone's always
looking for of like you know, the Satanic panic and
all these things where people are like they actually hid
messages and they were they were secretly trying to convince people.
(13:17):
It's like all that shit is happening is just happening
against people who espouse human rights right right, people who
are not well.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
I mean it shows you know, it's like the it's
it's like a it's a living organism. Like imperialistic capitalism
is just sort of like if you start seeing green
shoots of people talking about equity or how to like
end it, it's like you fucking spray round up on
that ship. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah, that's it's a living organism and it is allergic
to anything that has to do with you know, yeah,
against white supremacy. What what is something Miles that you
think is overrated?
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Overrated my way of packing. So I'm in the process
of move moving. You may notice if you see videos
I'm in another closet now, new closet.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Who is.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
But I, for being forty years old, I should be
better at packing, but I still pack like I'm a
twenty year old, like moving from like into my first
off campus apartment kind of thing where shit's just going
in trash bags. Nothing's organized, it's just like it goes
(14:29):
in a box. Because I think I get into this
sort of like decision making paralysis of if I have
to organize, then the process takes way longer because I
can't be like, well, where do.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
I put this one like loose electronic. I'm like, fuck it.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Everything in my vision right here is going in this
fucking box now. And corner box, yeah, exactly, corner box.
And then my labeling system is fucked. I put I
have one box that says miss misc bullshit, miscellaneous bullshit.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
There's a bunch so there's a cutting board in there.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
So my mill boxes dude cables And I'm like, uh,
I just have forty boxes that say misk on them.
I know exactly, and I don't know why. I'm like, oh,
this is fine because I think I'm in such The
real sort of stress inducing part is packing all of
your shit. It's like, how do I make everything that
(15:22):
I in this place disappear into a box? And I
don't think about the unpacking part where now I may
not I've I may not have headphones tomorrow or something,
or a fucking power cable for my computer.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
But I'll figure it out. I'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
I'll figure it out. So anyway, being just organized is better.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
But my freestyle way of packing very fucking overrated, and
I have to I have to grow up.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
I'm too old for this.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
I'm in New York City right now and I packed
all my like recording equipment and just want to show you.
The thing that I packed it in is thank you Bodega,
Thank you Beg. But I got from my parents' house
when I was there last week. That's where all the
chords were wound up. I mean they were in an
organized fashion, but they were in a boudeka. Thank you back.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Good for you for em putting him in a bag
when I traveled a record shit is just stuffed in
a backpack strewn takes me three hours.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
So untangle all the cables.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
All right, Uh my overrated. I have you ever flown Frontier?
Yeah yeah, I enough said, all right front It was
like a weird psychological pressure test, like to be like,
can we make we make this person go like lose it?
(16:41):
They So I flew back from the East Coast with
my kids solo and my my youngest had to go
to the bathroom so many times. One of the bathroom,
one of the three bathrooms on the plane was closed,
like they can do about that. I think somebody went
in there and uh had a problem. Yeah yeah, it
(17:02):
didn't absolutely had.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
I was on a flight where we couldn't take off
because someone did a paint job so bad before, like
as the.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
Plane was boarding.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
It delayed our takeoff by forty minutes because whatever happened
in there was.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
It was yeah yeah, crime against humanity? Yeah they yeah,
what so this is not this is no one's fault, right,
rather than like whoever decided to make this airline that
they were like that so that this will be one
hundred dollars cheaper than the other tickets, sometimes more, but
it will be harrowing.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Yeah yeah yeah, and there.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Yeah, there's just the poor people who work on the
plane like, you know, the people, just anybody trying to sleep,
anyone who had the idea of sleeping. I think whoever
designed those fascist benches that are designed to keep unhoused
people from sleeping on them, I think design the frontier seats.
(18:03):
There's like a but you like land, You're like, okay,
finally that ordeals over. You have to like take a
bus that like takes an.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Hour because you're not at l A X.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
You're gonna actually not officially LAX won't officially let us
fly out of there. Yeah, you know, I don't know, man.
It was just I wonder if they named the airline
because traveling in a wagon train during the Frontier era
is the only comp that like makes this make sense? Right,
(18:35):
you know, right right right? If you if you're thinking
in those terms, if you're thinking about the Oregon Trail, uh,
you're gonna be all right.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Because then it's not it's not it's not bad.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
If you're the Captain's like I have cholera, folks, I'm
gonna have to land the plane and someone's gonna have
to fix our wheel before we we have to we
have to forge this thing across our river really quick.
Anybody got strong arms, and I think you can hunt
for squirrel on the plane.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
You are.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
That's the only way to eat anything. You only, it's
only refreshing. It's like, well, here's a musket and for
loose squirrels. Yeah, go ahead about it, you know, solve
a couple problems.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
Don't worry.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
The muzzle velocity isn't enough to damage the fuselage and
cause a pressure issue.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
Don't worry.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
It's actually a pop gun. That's It's either that or
your hands. Yeah. Anyways, shout out to the people who
work on Frontier, because that's got to be harrowing anybody
who's flying it. It was just it was it was
kind of a nice community experience because like everybody was
in it together and everyone was just like openly being
(19:42):
like fuck. I mean, it was the only one that
I could afford. Uh, And we'll never do it again.
I will just not go on vacation in the future.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
I will just just just walk, man, take a bus.
Like honestly, uh, well, because all those front those all
so many of those budget airlines, like the ticket is
cheaper and there it's like, oh, you want to check
a bag that's ninety two dollars and You're like, what
the fuck I'm back to like a regular ticket price. Now, yam,
you look thirsty, man, you bet your eyes are really red.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
You look super dehydrated. You look jaundiced.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Anyways, Uh, let's take a quick break and we'll be
right back. And we're back. We're back, We're back, And
(20:36):
I know I know nothing happened because when I left
on Monday, we were talking about the upcoming Trump summit.
We were saying, man, I bet he talks tough in
the lead up to it and then does whatever Putin
wants him to do what he gets there. And boy,
howdy do.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
You that the only people Trump doesn't pump fake on
or like black people, poor people and LGBTQ people, I think,
and people of color generally immigrants, Like it's the people
in his own country, Like he'll brutalize the innocent working people.
When it comes to really doing anything like geopolitical, he's like, literally, rent, Yeah,
(21:14):
this dude got nothing done. I mean, if anything, it
was a it was actually a negative. It was a
win for Putin.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
But I think anyone who's yeah, the media narrative that
this was like a toss up or like that nothing
was accomplished.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Shook ass media, dude.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Yeah, that's incorrect, Like that he by by having the
meeting in the US, by like rolling out literally a
red carpet, by then coming away and basically the thing
that Putin wanted heading in, which is like we'll talk
about a peace deal without a cease fire, and you
(21:55):
know all the things.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
He just came right, Trump quote very severe consequence consequences
for Putin if he refuses ceasefire. Then after it, Trump
drops these fire demand, echoing Putin's position and jittering Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
Wow wow wow wow wow wow wow. So yeah, he
absolutely gave Putin what he wanted.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
He fucking like the way when even Vladimir Putin got
off the plane, it was like he looked like a
Beatles groupie.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
True, he like like, what.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
The fuck is this?
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Yeah, it's and these are like supposed to be the
two things that Trump actually respect, the only two things
that he actually like concerns himself with are like, you know,
power and evil, you know. Yeah, and he's anytime he's
(22:49):
in a position against somebody like this, it's just but
specifically Putin, Yeah, he just he does. It's a little
a little bit of the old Cat and Mouse where
the mouse just like crawls up to the cat and
rolls over and shows his belly.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Yeah, totally famous gambit and then brings as side of
dipping sauce too, just with them.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
If you if you want.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
I know, I know I'm unseasoned.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
I just know that you liked it last time.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
So yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this is very good. This
is very good. So yeah. The whole thing he even
like went around like it was just so stupid. The visuals.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
He's like and these are my planes, like he was
doing like weirdo fucking show and tell, and Pun's like, whatever, bro,
let's just get to the part where I tell you
what I want and you accept it and I get
the fuck out of here.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
Yeah, and that's pretty much what happened.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Like they were supposed to have a lunch and all
this other shit shit got scrapped. The fucking press conference
that was supposed to happen was very short, and yeah,
just Vladimir got what he wanted in that. Again, Trump
is not really putting any conditions for a ceasefire. He's
just saying, I guess yeah, we'll just do a piece deal.
(23:59):
Because again for Pooh and that means he can continue
attacking Ukraine if there's no ceasefire and they're quote working
on a piece deal, that just means the goalpost just
get shifted constantly and he can just basically keep like
there's really.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
No end in sight.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
And so yeah, I mean a lot of people on
their like even Marco Rubio, who is it's just so
funny to see these people like Marco Rubio who were
pre prior to Trump such staunch anti Russia sort of politicians,
and now he's just having to bite his tongue off
in these meetings and then act like it was an
(24:32):
actual victory for the US when in Yeah, Rubio went
on one of the weekend shows and you know, somebody
was like, the President went into that meeting saying he
wanted a ceasefire and there would be consequences if they
didn't agree on a ceasefire in that meeting, and they
didn't agree to a ceasefire, where are the consequences?
Speaker 1 (24:52):
And Rubio was like, that's not the aim. Oh. The
guy was like, oh, but the President said that was
the aim. So huh m hm, that's like, according, that's
like your opinion, man, exactly exactly that that's it.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
I think the other things they were saying was that
because Trump is technically taller than Vladimir Putin, that that
was also a big win because it was the two
biggest alphas on the planet. Mm hmmm.
Speaker 4 (25:21):
I don't know what alpha means in this context.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
I think maybe just really tiny men who lash out
in anger whenever their power is threatened.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
I guess it is like like the movie Step Brothers.
That's the level at which these people like understand, yeah,
well to see and like how it is like all right,
let's go back.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
You want to see my drum set. You want to
see how many push ups ke you do?
Speaker 4 (25:46):
When stealth bomber looked, there goes, there goes.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
There were people who are like, that's so baller that
Trump had the stealth bomber fly over as as Putin
got there, and it's like it's stupid, it's fucking dumb, Like,
I don't know what you think this is like actually
when when the result of this was fucking not the
outcome that anyone, especially Ukraine, who this whole thing is about,
not fucking you know, Trump's uh sort of show and
(26:11):
tell with war machines, but everything there were so many
There was like also this like the reports or that,
like after the meeting, all of the advisors came out
like quote ashen faced and like the Trump side, Yeah,
what that seems to be how everybody responds when they
see them. Remember there was that like dinner they had
(26:32):
together that Malani was there for when during the first administration,
and like everybody came away with that just being like
what the fuck was going on?
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Because like they like went away against the you know,
advice of anybody who like knows anything about diplomacy. He
like wouldn't listen to any of his advisors and like
went somewhere else with Putin to like have a conversation.
Speaker 5 (26:56):
Yeah, everyone was like, that's fucking what. So weird, it's
so weird. It's so weird, Like I think something's going
on maybe, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
That's why it's weird to me.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
It's also wild to me that Milania Trump maybe had
more fucking uh just like resolved to do something because
she had Trump hand like a letter over to Putin
that she had written.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
And she was like, hey, come on, now, let's protect
the children in Vladimir. Like even Trump like like like
I don't know, do whatever you want to know.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
This is from my wife, you know, makes the like
chattering motion with his hand. You know. Uh, that's that
is funny that his wife is like, I here, actually
I don't trust you to deliver the message. Just hand
this to this.
Speaker 4 (27:43):
Thing to him. Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
And just like all the embarrassing other shit that like,
like the trove of documents that were left behind in
a hotel where people are like eight pages miles.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
They were eight pages and they were the Trump administration.
It was like it was like a lunch menu or something.
In fact, it was full of previously undisclosed and potentially
sensitive details about the meeting. They left it in a
public hotel printer like the business center. The menu contained
(28:18):
names and phone numbers of three US staff members, plus
the names of thirteen US and Russian state leaders, and
it had a cheat sheet for how to pronounce complicated
Russian names, including President Pooh ten poo all capitalized tih.
They gave them the yeah exactly, And that's that's like
(28:40):
something funny that you could bring up to it.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
Another thing in that document that was talking about how
they were going to give Trump wanted to give Putin
like a golden eagle thing like a like a statue
like chatchkey, and.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Then it was rejected as like two thirsty.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Yeah, they're just like, sorry, bro, we got we got
a lot of other things to do.
Speaker 4 (28:58):
Bro, We're out of here. And they're like, oh, but
you're eagle.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
He's just standing there like the otter with a guitar holding.
Speaker 6 (29:05):
Oh hey, Jesus Christ is somebody who needs all words
written phonetically with pauses built in on my scripts.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
I'll give them a pass on this, but okay, how
do you not know how to pronounce Vladimir Putin's name?
Speaker 4 (29:21):
I think it's.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Probably just standard operating procedure for like everything, even if
it's a given, just so no one's caught off guard
because everyone's a fucking idiot in this administration.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
So also, I don't know if you're in the build up,
he kept calling.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Fuck what he kept calling one of the I think
he kept calling it like he was kept referring to Leningrad.
Trump did, and they're like, what the crazy billy jewel
song he was like in Leningrad? And they're like, dude,
what year does he think he's in? Does he knows
it's called Saint Petersburg or is he still in the
fucking Cold War right now? Because this guy's time traveling
(30:01):
with his decaying brain.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
Man, So, now what they're they're all gonna meet. Trump's
gonna meet with Zelensky. He's gonna yell at him for
not being grateful enough. Yeah, that's probably you're listening to
this if you're listening to it when it drops.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
So yeah, So Monday, Zelensky's meeting with Trump along with
all of like the European power players like Keir Starmer,
Macron Maloney, Mrs from Germany, the head of the EU,
the NATO secretary, because they were all basically before the
call time. Trump is like, dude, ceasefire, don't just fucking
let this thing go to straight up peace talks, like
(30:36):
we need the ceasefire to be able to end the
fighting and actually get some stability going.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
And so now he did the absolute opposite.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
They're all just like, okay, so now we have to
go be face to face and be like, uh, what
the fuck was that about.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
So I don't know what exactly is going to come
of that.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
I know Trump has demanded Zelenski wear a suit this time.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
There were reports that Zelenski will be wearing something in
the style of a suit.
Speaker 4 (31:04):
I think maybe that's a suit style of jacket.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
Yeah yeah, oh my god, t shirt ultimate troll job.
It's like, you're happy now, bitch, you like this motherfucker anyway,
If I look, if we're just going to be joking
around being a clown show to everything, then why can't
I wear my tuxedo shirt? But yeah, I mean essentially,
Zolski's like, dude, I'm not going to fucking seed any land.
(31:29):
I'm I'm going to get the borders of the country
as they were established. We're not giving up land to
fucking Vladimir Putin. You can't make me fucking do this.
I mean, the one benefit here is that like the
EU now like they have no other choice but to
really be like, bro, we can't, like if you think
about the trade deal and how they're like, we're going
to spend seven hundred and fifty billion dollars in the
(31:52):
US to try and like get because the whole they
wanted to butter Trump up to keep him engaged in
the Ukraine stuff. But now this guy has no fucking
like he does whatever Vladimir Putin wants. I think now
they have to go probably look him in the eye
and really know for sure.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
They're like, okay, so we really have to.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
Like so there's nothing there. It's all just yeah, So
you did the opposite of what you said you were
gonna do.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
Is that I didn't. No, I didn't. I said I
did exactly what I did.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
I said I told I told Vladimir whatever you want, baby,
I'll help you whatever you need.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
There was a liberator who read him saying, I'll help
you right away, like the opening gambit, opening gambit, here
are my cards? Do you want to like? I just
feel like it would be cooler if you could see
my cards and my cards are. Let's let's get you
that pot.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
Yeah right, Yeah, nice to see you, President Trump.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
I'll help you whatever you want right now. I'll fucking
do it. I'll fucking kiss you. I don't care, man,
I'll help you whatever.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
You need, right here in front of God and everyone.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
So, yeah, the EU learning in real time of what
countless others have have learned about Donald Trump.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
It doesn't matter if you fucking butter this guy up.
He will fuck you over because he It's not.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
About relationships or any kind of social like any kind
of agreement.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
There's a thing in sports where like a team that
like is really good at pressing right, like who like
you know, full court press is like when you play defense,
like right when they inbound the ball on the other
side of the court in basketball, Like a team that
is really good at that is actually often very susceptible
to that. If you like do it back to them,
(33:36):
they like kind of free. And I feel like that's
a little bit what you have with Trump and Putin,
where like yeah, like hearing the EU being like, yeah,
we'll give you all, like all these concessions. Just don't
like that. That's fucking stupid. That sounds like what Trump
would do with Putin, where they're just like conceding to him,
you know what I mean. Like it's that same like
(33:56):
bully shit. But it's just Trump is not good at it.
When it happens to him, he just like is so easy.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
What's going on with this press? I could barely get
the ball in exactly.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
I didn't prepare for this running down his legs, but
I was the one. Anyways, Uh, we'll see how it goes.
Probably good.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
I think he'll salvage it and we'll all be in
a good place and Russia won't get exactly what they want,
not exactly percent.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Did you see there was a fucking uh there's already
a clip of like the Russians captured like an a
PC from the from the Ukrainians and American ape and
then they started flying an American and Russian flag on
top of it, like while they were just marauding around
like you, they're.
Speaker 1 (34:42):
Just like chanting USA as they take Kiev. Boy, all right,
let's take a quick break. We'll come back and we'll
talk about some ship that's not this and we're back. Wow.
(35:03):
And big news for me, a young a young gen
z or that they're finally accepting our influence and putting
skibbety in the Cambridge Dictionary.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
I think that's more Gen alpha. You're stop stop acting older.
Speaker 4 (35:22):
Than you are. You know you're in Gen alpha.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
That's true. That's what you keep forgetting. That is true.
Thirteen Uh so last year they added the ick and boop.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
I was like, wait, boop like booping on someone's nose.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
It's just booping on someone's nose. Which I was like,
all right, well that should have been in there a
long time ago. Yeah, yeah, yeh then he booped me,
you know, give me a little boop. Anyways, they argue
that these are they're trying to pick the words that
have quote real staying power. Yeah, they've added some TikTok
(36:01):
friendly words, including trad wife. I agree, delulu, which is
like delusional, skibbity, which, as our writer Jam points out,
that's gonna make some intergenerational scrabble games go off the rails.
Oh yeah, Brian editor said, next year chimpanzini bananini of course.
(36:25):
And and they've also done broligarchy, which I don't know
that I've ever heard that one used casually in a conversation.
It's definitely like for online political discourse. I see broligarchy,
but I don't feel like I hear.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Kids being like in the fucking brologarchy, dude out of control.
That one just feels like more uh Cambridge Dictionary, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
all right.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Skibbity uh is because I did want to like, it's
a nonsense word, right, Like it's a word they can
have a lot of different meanings. Was curious what Cambridge
was going to do with that. The definition is a
word that can have different meanings such as cool, or bad,
or it can be used with no real meaning as
(37:13):
a joke.
Speaker 4 (37:15):
What are the examples right here?
Speaker 1 (37:19):
Yes? Yeah, so one example they use is what the
skibbitty are you doing? Other examples the use cases skibbity, skibbity, skibbity.
A boy around seven sang to himself as he dribbled
a soccer ball. What next use case? What the skibby
are you doing? Which I already Wentever, next use case?
(37:40):
What was the most skibbety part that doesn't tell you shit.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
Because they are saying good or bad?
Speaker 1 (37:46):
Here? Okay, next use case. In the viral song, the
words you're so pretty were replaced by you're so skibbity,
and then the final one that I feel like it
is really cementing them as getting it knowing the kids
and you know, I'm sure will win the respect of
their children, which has to have been the point here
(38:09):
final use case that wasn't very skibbty, riz of you
Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Why did they think is this just like the death
of dictionaries or like they're lowering themselves to have to
be like, well, we got to get there, We got
to get the youth into what words mean again. So
let's let's give them a little treat by putting their
nonsense words in here.
Speaker 1 (38:29):
Yeah, I think they might. You know, all dictionaries now
have like online versions, and they obviously see spikes when
they do some shit like this, and so they've they've
gone that They've probably hired some people who used to
work at BuzzFeed to be like, right, how do we
juice the numbers? Baby?
Speaker 2 (38:50):
I wonder, like, what's urban dictionaries definition of skivity usually
word to start a conversation, a conversation filled with brain rot. Okay,
this is written by someone who's like these fucking kids.
Person one skivity person too. Don't worry, my bro, I'll
get you out of Ohio with my one two buckle,
my shoe typers.
Speaker 4 (39:07):
Well, we busted down Person one. Kill yourself. Okay, yeah, that's.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
My covers realistic at least.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
All right.
Speaker 1 (39:18):
Weekend box office report, there's some reports that Sidney Sweeney's
new movie was flop City did Bad, And then there
are also reports coming out saying actually, it wasn't a flop,
it was actually a art house movie. I think the
confusion comes from the fact that it came out on
(39:41):
one thousand screens, which is kind of a wide release,
like over a thousand screens. The headlines tried to make
it about the American Eagle controversy. I think it probably
had more to do with the fact that, like, I
think they could get it on a bunch of screens
for cheap, and they did that because it like free,
but they also spent Like I did not know this
(40:04):
movie existed other than the fact that, like there was
the controversy. And then the next time she was seen publicly,
it was at the premiere for this movie, and I
was like, Okay, there's a movie coming out that wearables
did not exist.
Speaker 4 (40:17):
The outfit was. It was really an l for her.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
The movie, which is a heist movie, made five hundred
thousand dollars, opened in sixteenth place, which is lower than
the annual release of the Grateful Dead movie, which is
the thing I didn't even know about that I also
didn't know about.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
I guess, but yeah, I don't know. It's hard to
say that it was because of the Janes.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
No, dude, not enough people were fucking not enough people
that overlap of people.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
No, no, no, no, it's.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
I mean everything was. I feel like even before the
ads there was like.
Speaker 4 (40:56):
No one was like this shit's gonna be the sickest
fucking movie ever.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
It seemed pretty tepid. But oh man, now now I
have to go see it.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
I mean it's got Paul Walker Houser in it. He's
usually he doesn't miss that often Walker Paul Walker Howser.
Isn't that?
Speaker 4 (41:15):
Oh god?
Speaker 2 (41:18):
Okay, Jack, I thought I thought it was her Houser.
Oh god, I thought he was Risen. He he was
risen on screen.
Speaker 4 (41:28):
Hus give me giv.
Speaker 1 (41:31):
Shoes my shirt. See we get it, guys, kids, we
get kids.
Speaker 4 (41:38):
We get it.
Speaker 2 (41:39):
Dude. Jack didn't grow up in Skimmy, Ohio for nothing.
Speaker 4 (41:41):
Dude, I sty Dayton.
Speaker 1 (41:43):
I still haven't seen weapons. I am excited to see that.
Did you see that yet?
Speaker 2 (41:46):
No, we have to go see I think we have
to see it together because her Majesty ain't that. He's like, bro,
I don't want to see the fucking monster children in
the night. Everyone on the team that that that works
on the show. Everyone's fucking seen it except us, and
everyone's like, oh brawl, dude, it.
Speaker 1 (42:04):
Is one of those like everybody on the internet has
also seen it. Like I know, just Ran, I'm trying
not to learn anything about it, but I know about
that like hot dog lunch that like don't even know
that you don't know that. There's just I have no idea.
Speaker 4 (42:21):
I think you should leave.
Speaker 1 (42:23):
I have no idea what the context is, but like
somebody has apparently served a lunch tray that has like
five hot dogs and uh chips with like onion dipping sauce,
you know, potato chips with that like a sour kaream
onneon yes sour cream Union dep Anyway, Like I know
that it's just a moment that happens that people are
(42:47):
like to live in the movie weapons, Oh, that's so funny.
Speaker 4 (42:51):
That's like me, like dude.
Speaker 2 (42:52):
And then there's that one part I think like a
red Mustang drives by in the foreground of.
Speaker 1 (42:56):
A shot, so you can red mustangs. I did just
see Final Desk Nation, Bloodlines, Good Time, and there's a
there's a red old timey car might be a Mustang,
probably not. I'm not a car guy. Leave me alone, guys,
but uh watched that watch bo is Afraid? Watched uh.
Speaker 4 (43:16):
The plane?
Speaker 1 (43:17):
Yeah, man, I've had a lot. I've been clocking plane.
Well you flew solo, yeah to La because I had to,
you know, bring the kids back. My life was already
back because she's a fucking or whatever. So flew the
kids back, and then yesterday I flew right back to
New York because I had to be here for a
(43:38):
couple becatting things New York City, New York City. Man,
have you seen there's so many of these Eric Adams
like things that are going viral where people are like,
I can't believe this is like part of his campaign.
And it's just like a video of him addressing the
camera describing like a getting caught in a bird trap,
(44:01):
and it's so obvious that like someone has just done
a AI version of his voice and like put it
over an image of him talking. Like the voice and
the video like don't match up in any way. But
everyone's like, man, this guy's so wacky. I was like, no,
somebody's just making silly videos of him being silly.
Speaker 4 (44:24):
Wait, what are this is? This is real shit or
this is just some shit?
Speaker 1 (44:27):
Seeing people fall for this thing that's like clearly fake
AI videos of.
Speaker 4 (44:32):
It. They're just because he's so dumb that it's yeah.
Speaker 1 (44:36):
Yeah, And I just think it's unfair to him and
people need to give him a chance. I also, when
I got in a New York City cab last night,
there was an ad for I think they were like
trying to skirt the fact that this was basically political
like ad placement that was like, see me talk to
Eric Adams was like some morning show, and then you
(44:56):
just like was a campaign ad with like him talking
about how he'd like leaned up the subways or whatever.
Speaker 2 (45:01):
I cleaned up the subways with my own broom. Okay,
so Jesus Christ, Eric ah Man. Well, I mean the
in taxi entertainment was always lacking.
Speaker 4 (45:14):
I gotta say it.
Speaker 2 (45:15):
I'm glad at least it's filled with propaganda now, as
the sci fi films have foretold.
Speaker 1 (45:20):
That's right. Finally, Tom Cruise has reportedly turned down Trump's
Kennedy Center Honor, which has freedom room for kiss and
the guy from Phantom of the Opera.
Speaker 4 (45:31):
Great. Great.
Speaker 1 (45:32):
Some people on the left are like, yeah, Tom Cruise
is one of us, you know, he's generally a political
and was just like, ah, sorry, sorry, scheduling conflicts. But
one other possible reason that isn't going to make any
one happier, at least not that many people happy, is
President Trump has thrown his support behind removing the Church
(45:55):
of Scientology's tax exempt status.
Speaker 4 (45:59):
Oh no, well, god, I won't be celebrating that. I
want that. I want Scientology to be thriving.
Speaker 1 (46:06):
That's right. Yeah, I have such a great.
Speaker 4 (46:08):
Track record of letting journalists do their things.
Speaker 1 (46:10):
Strange bedfellows, Am I right? Anyways, hut Church of Scientology
trump a big orange cheeto, and I'm here for it.
Speaker 4 (46:19):
Could you imagine Jesus? Maybe pretty soon? Pretty soon?
Speaker 1 (46:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (46:25):
Okay, well, good for you, Tom Cruise. But yeah, realistically.
Speaker 1 (46:30):
That is so funny, Like that's it is like Tom
Cruise is like kind of Hulk Hogan codd a little
bit like just like his position in the Zech like
as an icon, it's just like very I don't know,
I associate him with that part of history.
Speaker 2 (46:49):
If you if you flattened the eighties like into like
a couple pictures of like pop culture moments, Tom cruise
face has to be part of that.
Speaker 4 (46:58):
Hulk Hogan's face has to be part of that.
Speaker 1 (47:01):
And also like if you put if you just like
added a background in both of those cases, an American
flag would probably be the thing that makes sense, you know,
right right right, right right, and Tom Cruise like top
Gun and all that shit and all that shit and
all that shit.
Speaker 4 (47:18):
Fucking cocktail or whatever.
Speaker 1 (47:20):
Bro is a bar behind Yeah, motherfucking bars. All right,
those are some of the things that are trending on
this Monday afternoon. We are back tomorrow with a whole
less episode of the show. Until then, be kind to
each other, be kind to yourselves, get your vaccines way
you still can get your flu shots. Don't do nothing
(47:42):
