What was the spicy whack a mole? Seatbelt? Seat belt

the last hundred years. Like we just used to be
like riding loose, like bouncing around in the car, and

(01:48):
was unsafe at any speed, y'all. Yet Anyways, my name's

he dreamed and read can't beat John fetter Man. That

(02:12):
is courtesy of Gerald Wright, Jerry Rice, good old Jerry. Yeah,
I was, I was not confident. I woke up with
Poland in my head by little Yadi, and I haven't
been able to get it out. So I took all
all of my willpower to not saying that in the
the Poland to the tune of Poland. Anyways, I'm thrilled

(02:36):
to be joined as always by my co host Mr
Miles Miles Gray. Guess who can figure out how to
use Poland in the a K. I might as well
be the Republicans because I took a lot. Okay, anyway,
shout out figured that out right at the death I

(02:59):
was like, wait where instrumental? Lord, it's hard to really
get in that. Get in your voice. Change yeah, voice,
change your voice whatever. Anyway, Yeah, get that register. Hit
it to be here, miles weird for it to be
joined in our third seat by a very funny stand
up comedian, writer poet who you know from such places

(03:20):
as TV, the Harvard Review, and her amazing podcast In
Your Hands. It's one of their new favorite guests on
this show. It is the hilarious and talented Lizzie Cooper
Mad Oh my god, I lost my voice. Just say
in your name, thank you, thank you, welcome back, welcome back,

(03:41):
thank you. It's nothing short of a thrill to be here.
Oh wow, you honor us with such a description. What
what sort of adventures have have your listeners been taking
you on? Oh my god, it's it has been truly wild.
I'm trying to even think of where we left off.
I was supposed to take the first job job that
I got on Craigslist gigs section. I applied to be

(04:05):
a hair model. I have very long hair, and I said,
I'll be a hair model for this fledgling beautition or
Styla's who wants to try you know, the pixie cut. Oh,
oh my god, you were about to let this person
hit you with the pixie if they responded first, I
was gonna, wow, Lizzy. I applied to work as a

(04:30):
Halloween performer on someone's front lawn. They specified you had
to be fun spooky, so I was trying to figure
out where is the line. Yeah, because they're not just
like disturbing spook, right, Just don't go up to people
and be like I killed your brother. That's regular spooky. Yeah,
going up to a little kid like Earth won't be
here when you're my age, please please don't what not

(04:56):
telling the truth to exactly like the adult Greta Thunberg. Yeah,
there is a There was a street or a house
off the street from me that did a climate based
Halloween themed like decoration, which I was like, yeah, hell yeah.
And then they also had a Rick Carusoe yard sign.

(05:19):
Rick Cruso, the billionaire mall magnate who's supposed to, uh,
you know, solve all of l A's problems. We still
don't have the results that he's making it snow at
the grove right about climate Yea, all right, Lizzie, we're
gonna get to know you a little bit better in
a moment. First, we're gonna tell our listeners a couple

(05:40):
of things we're talking about today. Knives out for Trump,
it's the people people are met, you know, it's they
don't realize it's too late for them. It's that he's
already he's already infected the Republican Party there, they can't
back off. Like he's still beating De Santa's by like
thirty points. It's in a head to head pull for

(06:02):
the president presidential election. So we're just gonna sit back
and look at that and e popcorn because he's he's
mad at run de Santis. So we'll look at that.
We'll look at how the election is being covered in
the mainstream media versus you know, a non mainstream paper

(06:22):
like Jacobin, and you know, there's some very clear learnings
from the election, and the New York Times ain't ain't
picking them up. So we'll talk about that. And of course,
Lindsay Lohan has a Christmas movie coming out, so we're
going to talk about that because thank God I need.
I'm I'm ready for Christmas movies. I don't give a

(06:44):
fun Christmas. Thanksgiving hasn't come yet. I already watched one
on Hallmark last week. Really, yeah, which one did you see?
It was one that had what's her name Carla Gugino?
What's her name? Yeah, Carla Gugino. It was in like,
what's the other one from Big Little Lies? Laura Dern.
It was like it was one from like sixteen years ago?

(07:06):
This the castle was fucking stacked. I was like, yo,
I'm gonna check this out. It was actually not bad.
I'm sorry Laura Dern is the other one from Big
Little Lies? To you, sir? I mean you know I said,
maybe I meant one of them, but yes, the I
think the other one because I know I could say
Reese Witherspoon first, and I think that's what's where I went. Whatever,

(07:29):
I don't care. You could come at me. But guess what,
Laura Dern, We're good one of our greatest. Yeah. Yeah,
but that's what's wild is like in this Christmas movie,
Like Laura Dern is like playing this like mother who
like can't get her act together, and like Carla Gugino
is having to take care of her child. Like there's
like these like really heavy acting scenes, like like Laura

(07:50):
Dern at this hospital, You're like, yo, Homemark. I was
just like during a Hameark movie, I don't know this
was was called Season for Miracles. Oh, I thought you
said it was six years ago. Now I said something
like sixteen years ago or so. And this is just

(08:12):
you can watch this and point out the scene to
see inconsistencies in this film. It's it's beyond Starbucks cupping
Game of Thrones. What happens in this Christmas movie? Well,
the title has changed, and I think they were probably like,
look things changed the title from one scene to the next.

(08:34):
It was called Married by Christmas, and then they were like, okay,
something's you know, people aren't drawn to this title, so
they changed it to the engagement clause the engagement and
it really bothers. Makes I feel like that's a thing
where when people screenwriters were like, oh, clause right to

(08:58):
play on the word of a play on words in
another movie title. Yes, exactly. But I recommend watching this
because it looks like there was some kind of art
department emergency in the film, because the protagonist is supposed
to work for like some vague food company, and her
office looks like a blank room with like a photograph

(09:20):
of a piece of broccoli behind her. Like it's so,
that's amazing again made by mar Vista. Mar Vista makes
all of the fucking like goaded terrible holiday films. That's
usually like I always have to check them. Oh it's

(09:40):
a mar Vista hit. Okay, it's like the death Row
records of Christmas movies. Wow, yeah, Miles is a connoisseur.
I don't know if you know. I pitched them a
fucking movie and they didn't. The biggest mistake they ever made,
they were it. Yeah, all right, before we get to
any of that ship, Lizzie, we like task our guest,
what is thing from your search history? Okay, so I'm

(10:03):
on an old computer today because my computer crashed. It's
coming back today from Apple. It's coming back from the
dead to the last search on this computer I'm using,
which is the equivalent of maybe a calculator from two.
This is an a sous Chrome book where the button
requires you know, every button requires kind of brute force

(10:25):
on this computer. The last search here was Cathy Smith
meet and greet and that was actually something for my
podcast where I was going to use this as an
option because they've they've been voting what I do with
my life every week through crowdsourcing my life. Kathy Smith
is a woman who conducts casting quote unquote meeting greets

(10:45):
at the Scientology Center every week. Um, meet and greed
is casting casting? Yes, so it's like an casting or
like acting showcase or shop that happens at the Scientology
Celebrity Center. Interesting. Yeah, that's where they take your money

(11:09):
then throw your headshot into a recycling band, right, or
I mean and then get you on your way to
spending money with them. Huh, exactly exactly. They're probably like,
you're just not confident enough. Hold onto these cans. We'll
see what we can tell you about you. Now, tell
us all your darkest secrets, every single one, like ship

(11:29):
you would never tell anybody want anyone to know. That's
how you get into Hollywood. Okay, right, right? I looked
you up on IMDb. There are several Kathy Smiths, which
I feel like before anyone gives birth, they need to look.
They need to go on IMDb and make sure because
Samuel L. Jackson actually didn't always go by Samuel L. Jackson. Right,

(11:50):
you had to add the alb was your Sam Jackson
at first? Yeah, I think, so, okay, that makes sense.
I thought he was like, no, he used to be Richard. Yeah,
do a quick se O check on your on your
baby name, you know. Also that I mean, if you
want to, you know, just make sure it's just tell

(12:12):
people it's the name. It's like, yeah, this is my
kid John Smith. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, that's the name. No,
but I'm not gonna tell you because secret. Yeah. Maybe
that's Scientology's whole strategy is like I mean, they're good
at getting things buried in search results. So maybe they're like, yeah,
maybe we don't want we don't we don't want Internet

(12:33):
sleuths like coming to coming to our like that. That
that would probably not be the best prospect for Scientology, right,
although you think that David miss Sabbage would maybe change
his name because that's a pretty unique name. Oh my god,
if you marry him, are you miss Cabbage? That's nothing
like his actual name. I just well. And then also

(12:55):
which is wild too, because they say, like his wife
has been disappeared by Scientology. If you marry him, you
go missing. Is actually yeah, that's right. Well, so this woman,
I guess supposedly discovered Mila Kunas that's in her bio,
But discovered can mean a lot of different things, right,
you just found out about her and he's a really

(13:16):
good actress that I dated. Somebody who was from Iowa
and her mom always claimed that she discovered Ashton Kutcher
in Iowa, and I was like, what does that mean?
And then it actually turns out her mom was like
running some kind of modeling agency and like pulled up
on him at a mom was like, fam, you could
model like yesterday And he's like really and then boom gone,

(13:39):
and she's like I did that. But there's also people
who are like I was the first person to realize
that person was good. I discovered them. It's like, well
that's that's a little bit of a tenuous claim. But okay,
when she discovered him, was he freelance punking people? Just no,
just cruising them all, just cruising them all? You know,
like honestly, like all those stories about like who were

(14:00):
like I was just walking through the malls and came
up to me, But this person wasn't like on some bullshit.
I used to do a joke about how when Biden
was looking for a vice president, all the articles made
it sound like he was scouting for them at a
shopping mall. It would be like the articles would be
like Stacy Abrams really caught his eye, you know, like
he locked up to her at a tzara and like,

(14:22):
excuse me, have you thought of a presidential Go home?
Talk to your mom if she and I've done this before.
I've been in the industry for decades. You can. You
can look my name up. I'm exactly who I say
I am. What's something you think is overraged? Okay, I
I have to I'm so thrilled to be finally talking

(14:45):
about this. I'm getting sick of people calling themselves a
monster and people go, I'm sorry, I'm such a monster.
I actually feel like it's really do you know what?
I like? I feel like it's actually bad for women
because at least in circles that I'm in. Sometimes, like
I'll go to someone's house and it'll be something that's
truly imperceptible, like maybe a dish towel on the counter.

(15:10):
I'm a monster, Like, oh I I forgot to shave
my legs for the barbecue. I'm a monster. And it
just it makes me feel like, what am I a
murderer like any of these things? So I feel like
it puts an expectation on everybody to have these I

(15:31):
don't know, priorities, like if your place looks any any
less impeccable than like a cbtwo catalog, it's it's unforgivable, yeah, right,
right right, Although I feel like when I hear it too,
like some of my like friends will use it very intentionally,
like just as like an offhanded thing and be like,

(15:52):
oh ship, like I forgot to get more like mustard
at the store, I'm a fucking monster, and I like,
ha ha ha. But I know you're talking about two
where people earnestly like apologizing like that's not a monstrous behavior,
but right you know, yeah, yeah, like not spraying the
pan with olive oil is not. It doesn't warrant that

(16:15):
to me, right right right now, that's just that's a
human error or allows in short term memory. When would
you is there a word you would swap because people
want to use that same sort of sequence of words
after would such I'm fucking useless, And when like the

(16:38):
sarcasm like bleeds into oh no, we're here in some
inner monologue, Right, I don't even want to be here anymore?
What that's really interesting? I feel like there should be
a replacement for that, definitely, But yeah, is it meant
to be like they you want to say monster because
it really isn't monster, But then you can also no,
it's like I would have done better at the end

(16:59):
of the day, I'm like, leave your fucking kitchen towels
or have you got to? Yes, I feel like that's
what it is is. I want people to just be
okay with the messy and not feel like wiping the
stove has to be number one. Yeah, well, I think
that it definitely reveals like how some people are, and
also reveals like then I'm very quick to reel it
and I'm like, oh man, you should see my kitchen, right,

(17:21):
you say, like, oh no, I'm worse. Yeah, actually I'm
the monster. Welcome. If I go to a front's house
and she says I killed my husband, I'll go, Okay,
you got it. Actually, let's find out why you killed
your husband, because oh, well, justified. Isn't that the same
thing I said where I was like I I applied

(17:42):
to be a Halloween monster. Yeah, there you go. I
still think about just that process of like people who
because like Jamie Loftus also during Halloween, like went to
go work as like a character at like a Haunted
hay Ride, and I just think of what I would
love to see a very earnest audition process for that,

(18:04):
like where like if it's like a dance audition, like
all right, line up, y'all. First, I know somebod y'all
know modern ballet or whatever, but we're doing mostly monster movements,
so let's see violent scary movements. Go and you're a
skeleton six seven eight. Those videos are out there. The
audition tapes are out there for like like very basic
monster moving. Yeah. My friend Roz was like, I love

(18:27):
watching them like people jerking around but just a normal
street clothes, like trying to get the role of a
zombie and what I started zombie auditions. What's something you
think is underrated, Lizzie? Okay, this is we're talking simple
pleasures here, Okay. And I think about this every time
I get in my car. Prescription sunglasses. Okay, do either

(18:52):
of you wear glasses? Tell him one eye and I
just never wear my glasses, so like, yeah, my vision
in one eye is like a super villain, Like, right,
it's gonna start drifting. Yeah, that's it. That is how
you get like your vision just shuts off, like like,

(19:13):
so my left eyes fucked up, and I have noticed
myself be a little cock eyed from time to time,
just relying on one a little more. Yeah, I think
I just rely on my right eye, which ken does
have X ray vision, so it is. Yeah, that's that's
little spooky. My friend Andy Ritchie used to have a
joke about that, and he's like, just look at Mr Peanut,

(19:34):
like Mr any character like with a monocle is just
why not? Wait, so you how bad is your prescription?
How bad is your vision? Mine is so bad? And
it's been this way since seventh grade. I remember Human
Sexuality class. I couldn't see the chalkboard. That was the
first time you realize you had that vision. You're like,

(19:54):
I finally want to see what's up there. He's like,
I was drawing a micro I could not see the chalkboard.
So yes, So it's been in seventh grade and now
it's so bad. It's twenty two hundred. So whatever someone
else can see two ft would have to be twenty
ft in front of me. To see. Wow. I but

(20:19):
for some reason, I never had prescription sunglasses until like
my early thirties, and before then it was just like, well,
if it's sunny out, I'm blind right right right the
days when the sun is shining. Yeah, man, that's well
because I have vision. Oh okay, well it's nearly perfect.
Just yeah, I mean it's actually be on perfect, Like

(20:42):
he sees things that we we can only us near mortals.
If the blood coursing through my hand right now, at
the back of my hand, astronauts can see things at
twenty ft that miles too, when when astronauts are looking
at twenty ft it looks two miles like it's half
that distance. Here's something absolutely insane that I just learned.

(21:04):
And since Thanksgiving is coming up, I feel like if
you missed not to mention is that turkeys have better
vision than human beings. Oh no wait what? Oh no
to that. If you're like, oh, I think they see
better than us, we should not eat them. They can

(21:24):
still see you from the oven right right there, just
like seeing everything, and that that is always interesting, Like
human vision. We like to talk about dog vision being
bullshit and you know, black and white like human vision.
Is not the top of the spectrum. There's the mantis shrimp.
I think has like oh what no, Jack, go on.

(21:48):
I think it has like nine times better vision them.
It's it's crazy, like they can see infrared light, they
can see everything. It's it's wild. Oh my god. Yeah,
not to like be like what okay, animals with it. Wow, Jack,
you're like a just a fact book right there. First
thing man to shrimp, Okay, well, channels of color and

(22:13):
can detect u V found out. I also found out
that wild turkey's sleep in the trees. Well, I've seen that,
you have. I saw like a thing where there were
turkeys in the tree and people like, what the fund
is that? And like they're sleeping and I was like,
what there's sleep? Yeah, that's right. At least they have
a bad friend. You know, some people like I won't

(22:35):
sleep with someone who doesn't have a bad friend, right,
turkeys your hall pass. But I just I just found
a clip of six Flag zombie auditions from New Jersey.
Oh yeah, just to just to kind of get an
idea of what kind of movements we're seeing here. Oh man,

(22:56):
this guy seem I think that. Thank you guys. Instructor
has real like gym teacher energy too. He just said,
this first exercise we're gonna do is just to get
you out of your comfort zone a little bit. Is
this a level one improv class? Yeah, but like as
taught by a middle school football coach and your favorite rider? Okay,

(23:21):
So that this audition is they're going to introduce themselves,
say their name, and scream at the top of their
lungs with their favorite rides. Bizarre m Okay about that,
little Bethany, that's not gonna work for us. My favorite Okay,
y'all are a little bit of physicality there, good afternoon,

(23:47):
my favorite ride? Okay, because she held it. That's why. Yeah,
my favorite Wait are they screaming and like it's just
those screams look whatever. That's why we don't run these

(24:09):
zombie auditions. But okay, thank you Lizzie for pointing me
in a direction, because now I'm gonna get high watching
of these I'm like critiquing. I'm like, y'all, I have
seen some things. I have worked with Miles long enough
to know that for the next week I better not
text him any questions be watching those videos I'm watching.

(24:35):
All right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back,
and we're back, and knives are out for Trump and

(24:55):
the Republican Party. They're they're just looking for their like,
look happy, our politics, the people rejected? So what do
we what do we do here? What do we him? Right?
You get mad at and him? Right now they're choosing
the one person that they absolutely can't get rid of.
I'm sure that I have to assume this is a

(25:17):
this is a passing fad. As soon as they look
at the numbers again, they'll be like, oh, wait, all
our votes, our Trump gout. But the problem is, right,
this is like the one time where they absolutely need
to find something different because with Trump at the ticket,
it's been consecutive elections where they're just losing. Yeah, like

(25:38):
it's it's been a downward trend every sing since and
like but it's funny, like they always there there's a
lot of outrage from like mainstream Republican figures, but like
each time there's some ship like this the Ukraine call
meddling with the d o J attempted election theft, there
are always like a few more Republicans are like, oh,
I wouldn't do that, but then they don't do anything,

(26:00):
they get too scared and next thing, you know, they realize, oh,
that's right, this dude is my daddy now. And last
week a lot of the media outlets on the right
came for him. In the National Review, the headline was
Trump is a bust for Republicans, ok, okay, and then uh,
going to Rupert Murdoch, what's he doing over there? Well,

(26:22):
most of the channels are like, I don't know about
this guy. On the New York Post, the cover on
Thursday showed Trump as trumpty dumpty don who couldn't build
a wall, had a great fall. Can all the GOP's
men put the party back together again? Uh? And they're
all kind of getting they're all using Trump as this excuse,
but they let them run that entire titles so long.

(26:46):
I mean, it's the New York Post like whenever it's
like pun filled, they're like, man, fuck whatever, both of
the standards are get that pun in there. But you know,
like they kind of tried to stop him in like
where that first, like this guy is gonna be bad
on need to just realize like that, them constantly feeding
the base like nativist bullshit in the eight years prior

(27:06):
is like what made Trump absolutely irresistible to their voters.
So they just got out the way, and we're like
amazed at what happened, and they excuse every single funk
up because they really saw this guy as like the
way to like that thing we talked about last week
with Nick Fuentez, like this one right wing extremist time,
like we just need a dictatorship man. Doesn't matter how

(27:27):
many more of them that there are than us, Well,
we think we need to get them to be get
in line with like our rules, and that's it. Many
people saw Trump as being like, oh, this guy can
just get this, Like if we just stay behind him,
we might get to that place. So it's just kind
of like, I don't know if there's really like we
always say there's no hypocrisy with like the base or

(27:48):
the politicians on the right, because you know, like they
know that this is all about just getting to the
end game of just own the Libs fully and just
having just give us absolute power and we'll look away
at every single thing. But I don't know, it's just there.
They keep trying to do this thing where they act like, oh,
here we go, they're gonna dump them, but they've already

(28:10):
like the toothpastes out the two. Yeah, yeah, but they
I mean people were pointing out the New York Post
has turned on Trump before, and everyone's been like, it's
the end for Trump. And then someone's like, actually, they
we we all said that four years ago, like this
this is they'll do this all the time exactly. Yeah,

(28:35):
you didn't want him in the first place, like the
mainstream of the party didn't want him in the first place,
and we're we're supporting Jeb Bush and other you know,
establishment tickets. And then they realized quickly when the primary
started that they couldn't beat him, and so they go
they go back to it. It's just there's not a

(28:57):
great option. I mean, De Santis seems to be the
option that the like there maybe their best option, their
best alternative to this point, but I I can't picture
a version of this playing out where De Santi's beats Trump.
He's just too much more entertaining. And there is he's

(29:19):
a person who has a death cult, like we haven't
had that ever, like a large scale death cult in America.
Like that's it's pretty wild. But yeah, it's like, but
how do you get But they're kind of maxed out
their membership on the death cult, and now they're like, fuck,
if this is the best we can do, and jerrymandering

(29:39):
is like only barely getting us like to even footing,
then what Because I think that's the thing that a
lot of you know, like the consultant and strategy class
of the party you're thinking about, like I don't know
how the funk you're gonna win, like like you can
only do so much without trying to figure out. Maybe
someone else energizes more people to come back, and we'll

(29:59):
see what happens. But I think the thing that really
said Trump off, especially last week, because he lost it,
like really in an interesting way. The New York Post,
I think, on Friday posted this headline with him and
his family after he won re election. It says the
future run the future, Yes, Ron the future, Okay, mask

(30:22):
off and he's also a mask off like future with
his racism and just heinousness. But Donald Trump went out
and then got on truth social and like email blasted
everybody talking about how like I made this motherfucker when
he said he was dying in the balls, I endorsed him.
Then he said this this is really interesting quote. I
was all in for Ron and he beat Gillham. But

(30:43):
after the race, when votes are being stolen by the
corrupt election process in Broward County and Ron was going
down ten thousand votes today along with now Senator Rick Scott,
I sent in the FBI and the U S attorneys,
and the ballot theft immediately ended, just prior to them
running out of the votes necessary to win. I up
this election from being stolen. Hold on, sir, what you said?

(31:04):
Who to do? What? Now? A lot of people are like,
is this for real? Did he really? Was he already
working with the like these mid terms. I think a
lot of people are like. It most likely is a
reference to when then Florida Attorney General Pam Bonda, I
like took into like listen to some bullshit claims, was

(31:25):
looking into some ship about voter fraud, and they didn't
find ship, and they kept it moving because I think
most people have noticed we usually have here most of
the ship that happens like in real time with this guy,
It just depends on how much of it gets reported
or not. And not many people found anything that you know,
that seemed consistent with what he just said. But again
I think shows his level of like like he's really

(31:46):
doing like I made you? Is the vibe right now?
He the only divisin is em power is because I
committed crimes to get him there, like easy. But that's
what's so good about having the Republicans tied to somebody
who is any any time he's under attack or like

(32:07):
any something that he perceives as humiliating, which is almost everything,
because that's just like how his brain work. Like anytime
that's happening, he is like a person who's drowning and
just pulling everyone in with him, just like fuck you,
I'm like, and we'll keep doing that until he's on
a pile of bodies, like just it's like watching a

(32:31):
magician bomb. Yeah you did not see me switch the
quarter into my other hand. When we did we did
what the funk man? That wasn't magic? Okay, what about
this this guy? Like, this guy was loving it a
minute ago, So ask him what happened? He said me up, actually, motherfucker,

(32:52):
get up here. Let's all boo him. But yeah, I
think Then he went on and came after the Governor
Glenn Yunkin and was like being like, I don't know,
maybe he's Asian. It sounds Asian to me? What kind
of last name is young Kin? Like, that's the I'm
not joking. That was the level of shit talking he

(33:14):
was at today. It was just being like, this dude's
last name sounds Asian. This is what he said, young
kid and parenthetical. Now that's an interesting take. Sounds Chinese,
doesn't it. What are you doing? I think we should
just isolate the side that Lizzie just had and that
should be our only analysis of It's giving me a panic,

(33:37):
Like the idea of going back to it gives me
a panic attack. Well, this is the thing, right, I
think most people have seen all these MAGA candidates that
were running to be elected. The ones that were reelected
is one thing, But the people who are trying to
unseat incumbents. Incumbents were not fucking winning, and that's a
big thing that they're Like, Dude, the MAGA ship is
not as potent as it used to be. And I

(33:59):
think that's that's the one thing that I will take
as an indication of perhaps his stock somewhat dwindling, is that,
like it just like they wasn't quite getting over the
line with some of these extremists, Like at a certain point,
some people are like, yeah, like Donald Trump's like but
also like a lot of this ship is it doesn't
sound like solution based at all. It sounds like, you know,
let's just restrict people's access to like healthcare or privatized

(34:22):
Social Security and things like that. So I don't know,
but you'd feel like if there was that sort of
same energy behind it, that would have been born out
a little bit in the election results. So I think
it's just merely like because the brand is just so
it's just not as it's losing its appeal somewhat. Yeah,
I feel like it's very muddy, like like you said,
it's on the one hand, it does seem like the

(34:45):
Maggie candidates didn't do well, and but like all of
the analysis of the midterm elections and like them being
the opposite of what was predicted by the mainstream media,
a lot of it is like, well, there is a
candidate quality at the issue and Trump maybe like Trump's
appeal maybe dwindling, but like that's hard to prove because

(35:06):
he wasn't like on the ticket, you know, like he
wasn't no, nobody was actually voting for him, and so
it just muddies what seems like there are some very
straightforward like policy takeaways that should be the thing that
every media outlet is pointing out, pointing to and but

(35:29):
but they are these like straightforward policy takeaways that don't
work with the mainstream narrative because they're too simple and straightforward.
And like it does feel like this moment feels go ahead.
I was just gonna say, I love that the idea
of a candidate quality check for Republicans, Like what that

(35:51):
would be like, is there a crease in your doctors
check their teeth and gum line like a horse? Like okay, good.
But this moment just feels very clarifying to me, Like
it feels like, you know, there's a bunch of progressive
energy at the point, like from voters that is laid

(36:11):
bare in an election that the mainstream media was kind
of distracted into thinking was going in a different direction,
so they didn't really have their message and ready for
like what was going to happen if there was this
kind of progressive energy that turned out and instead of
like covering the progressive policies that are resonating with people

(36:32):
that have resonated with people for a long time, they're
just like muddying everything with this, like are people tired
of Trump? Like what's Trump gonna say? Like just this
like personality contest, this like sports media bullshit take of
just like who's got the better like who who's the
better horse? Essentially, The New York Times literally, like the

(36:55):
day after the election was like, all right, here's who
we like for the Democrat addic presidency. If Biden drops out,
they'll be shocked to know the people they liked, Harris
Buddha Jedge where we're like all the mainstream centrist Democrats
and the people they weren't feeling. Like literally, there was
a category that was like here's who to here's who

(37:17):
we like, and then a category I'm just not feeling it.
And it was like the first two were Bernie Sanders
and AOC were like number one and two of like
just not feeling it, just not feeling a folks once
to old once to You think J. B. Pritsker was
in the middle section of that, right, Yeah, that's not
a lot of people are just like just get the
just get these big lads out there, right, yeah, the big,

(37:40):
big relatable lads out there, like in the rush belt.
But there's like a very straightforward story to tell here
like that. So, yeah, there has a lot of there
has been a lot of support for progressive policies that
performed incredibly well, and they performed incredibly well in like
they elections like Pennsylvania with Shapiro and Fetterman just you know,

(38:06):
running populist campaigns that are focused on giving people economic
reforms that help their lives, like that is for some
reason seen as like this fringe populist thing, but it works.
And then there are these more conservative democratic statewide campaigns
in North Carolina and Iowa that had so Federman Shapiro

(38:29):
both ran ahead of how Joe Biden did in traditionally
Republican parts of the state. That's always what Democrats are, like,
the thing that we got to figure out is how
we get those like those blue collar workers to start
voting Democrat again. So they have their answer that that's it,
like just run on populist progressive economic policies that we

(38:55):
we saw that work. And when they didn't do that
in state wide campaign in North Carolina and Iowa, they
ran behind Joe Biden. So it's like a very very
straightforward lesson. Then that feels like good news, right, they
have a very clear answer following this election. The bad
news is they've had a very clear answer before this
and ignore the funk out of it. But how do

(39:17):
we do economic populism without really affecting the bottom line
of a lot of companies? And I think that's the like,
that's this fucking weird cliff that the Democrats are always
like standing over there, Like, I mean, it's a winning
message when you speak directly to people's lived experiences and say,
I know you're getting fucked over by like rising prices

(39:39):
and the greed of companies. I know that. Like when
you go that route, people are like wait what And suddenly,
like you're saying, like rural counties start going back towards
Democrats because they're speaking something that is like very straightforward.
Every politician needs just start dressing like Aaron Brockovich. Yes,
why not. I'd love to see that. But I mean,

(40:03):
like that's that's what's sort of like so infuriating, is that,
like it's so simple. It's like you just you get
your you get your hymnal from your donors, and then
you have to sing the songs that they say, Yeah,
like you see it with with the messaging around inflation
like that was supposed to swing the whole election, and
it didn't really because people understood like all of the

(40:25):
stuff about like well, Biden giving money to you the
voter is what caused this pain, this inflation like that
it resonated something. It was like a fifty fifty split
basically on inflation, but it wasn't like the thing that
swung the election. And by the way, the like pre
electoral like analysis that they got was from Larry Summers,

(40:49):
who you may remember as the president of Harvard, who
was like flying on the lolite express that we covered
when we're talking about how Harvard Harvard. Yeah, it's basically
a bashing of wealth protectionism and not liberal intellectualism. But anyways,
like the the big one is just like they're all
these very popular progressive policies that we keep seeing, like

(41:11):
we making abortion illegal is wildly unpopular, and that does
seem to be the one that the mainstream media is
letting in, Like they're letting that message in that Okay,
the you know what, what the extremist Republican position and
action now on abortion is cost them this election. But

(41:34):
they're not like covering the fact that like gun control
is popular, and like, voters represented that white supremacy is unpopular,
and voters represented that in some places, people don't think
healthcare should bankrupt you. Yeah. Yeah, and like that's another
wild thing to just I just wanted to talk about
all the attacks that teachers are under, like critical race

(41:55):
theory and all this culture war bullshit. There are a
lot of bills that passed were increasing funding to public schools.
So despite all that, like you weren't like despite like, no,
we gotta we gotta cut the ship off and privatize everything.
Most people are like, no, no, no, we like that,
take that more money for them. Yeah, pro choice measures
swept at the ballot box. Progressives one with ballot measures

(42:18):
that support policies like raising the minimum wage and taxing
the rich. Like just everywhere across the country, a bunch
of like progressive House candidates one, but like aren't being
covered summarily in Pennsylvania, Delia Ramirez in Illinois. There's like
a bunch of these Greg Cassar in Texas, like a,

(42:41):
you know, these populous candidates are winning in Texas. It
seems like these are the surprising results that they would
cover if they didn't have some other agenda. I can't
quite put my finger on it right pro collective bargaining
measures one, legalized cannabis one. Like measures for rent control

(43:02):
one everywhere They fucking one in Orange County, Florida, like
rent control. Rent control is popular in Florida. You think
that would be like the one of the big takeaways.
It's like, help people because they're being harmed by massive corporations,
and like they it's a very straightforward message that they

(43:24):
seem to be willfully fucking up at places they are
at times they are because again, it's a consolidation of
our media and everything, and it's all being ran by
a very specific kind of person in a very specific
socio economic situation with a very specific perspective. And that's
I mean, honestly, that's that's why like people like candidates

(43:45):
who aren't his tethered to like the old school like
political machine of using corporate dollars and things like that,
are speaking more freely than the ones that are like
born from it. And that's I think that's the balancing
act of d n C is also probably gonna look
at too. It's like, dude, you get too many of
these populists in here, we're like we're like a couple.
You know. Congress is away from like real like actually

(44:07):
delivering for people at the expense of like profits. And
I think that's what will be interesting too, because there's
a lot of analysis about how there was a lot
of success in the suburbs and suburban voters going to Trump,
but a lot of suburban voters tend to be like
upper middle middle class and maybe look at the economy
way different than these other people, these other voters that

(44:29):
the Democrats are also trying to court, which are like
like workers, laborers, who are like looking at how like
the economy is affecting them, and have a like maybe
probably a more populist agenda than the people in the suburbs.
So how are they going to balance all those things?
And you feel like they're gonna probably just shy away
from going more populous, But I don't know, I mean,

(44:50):
maybe they found a way to be like we can
do a little bit of that stuff while still like
wreaking and or generating massive money and not completely just
you know, knee capping in industry because we decided people
need free medicine or some wacky ship like that does
populist just mean like anti corporate and like humanitarian like

(45:12):
like that. It feels like it's just like, yeah, I
don't I don't know. It's people, you mean populous interchangeably
to refer to Trump and then policies of like rent control.
It's just it's just appeal to normal people. That's all
it is. It's just normal. So that's all subjective, right,
But I think what Trump he was being like as

(45:34):
an outsider in sixteen, it was great popes, like we
gotta get these like nobody's making money. These prescription drugs
are way too like he did. He was talking to
a lot a lot of that ship and so but
then got in I was like, I'm broke and I
have bills. Y'all have a friend, a friend who like
works in finance from like you know, a friend that

(45:57):
I went to school with, and he her our podcast
and was like, oh, I had no idea you were
so populist, And I was like, what does that mean? Yeah?
Is that I think that is like a slur in
that realm, right, is like the idea that well, you're

(46:17):
just saying what people want to hear, and it's like, well,
they wanted to hear it because they're not stupid and
it helps them. And there are like clear ways that
people can help themselves through politics that fucking everyone else
is ignoring, like in the mainstream media. Right. Yes, it
really is like that thing where like, yeah, you're I

(46:41):
don't know how to put it. Like I feel like
back in the day, like I would I would be
wanting to date somebody and then like are you like
you know, they tell me like I'm not happy in
the relationship. I was like, oh, that's that's messed up,
and they what's happening, Oh, they don't do this and
don't go, oh, that's that's my stuff. Then you get
a call, hey man, why are you talking shit to me?
Like talking about me tomorrow to my girlfriend? I was

(47:01):
like what I just they literally just said what was
going on? And I agreed. I wasn't generating some other narrative.
You're just getting angry at the fact that objectively the
situation is not good and someone describing it isn't. Somehow
now this like underhanded thing rather than for like the
parties in power understanding their messages aren't resonating. The status

(47:24):
quo is absolute violence in death and that's how most
people see it. So you come out here talking that
same thing, they go, oh, that's death and destruction. That's
death and destruction. Yeah, that's not solutions like someone who's
and I think that's all it is. People just want
you to come and be like, here's the problem. Here's
the solution. Republicans, right now, just go here's the fucking problem.
You'all right, yeah this is well. Then the New York

(47:47):
Times doesn't have a single like they have a columnist
who's willing to say fucking everything. They have a columnist
who's willing to be like being a traditional Catholic is
actually punk rock and know like just the wildest ship,
like loving the Pope is the most punk rock thing
you can do today. And they don't have somebody who's

(48:08):
willing to be like all right, So like Democratic voters
like came out and forced voted for Democrats and said
that they're really frustrated, Like in exit poling they said
they're really frustrated with the Democrat, like with Joe Biden.
So like there's a clear message here. They vote for,
you know, progressive policies and they're frustrated with the existing thing,

(48:30):
Like what wouldn't it suggest that like it would make
sense for the Democratic Party to like shift to more
progressive policies and like being more straightforwardly like helpful to
people and humanitarian. Um, they don't have a single columnist
who make who makes that argument is pretty wild. Just
thinking about how much is brewing in Florida right now?

(48:51):
Is does Trump still live there? Oh yeah, I think
he refuses to even leave when a tropical storm is coming.
As of last week, A nucas, let's take a quick break,
we'll be right back, and we're back. And so is

(49:19):
Lindsay Lohan did no. I was watching her Greek beach
show on MTV when that was that was a vibe?
When was that? It's like three years ago, I said,
this reality show she had like a beach club somewhere
like in like Mico Nose or something like that, and
it was and she had that like funky accent. Yes,

(49:41):
she suddenly developed one like Madonna did. Yes, like a
Madonna suddenly came out in a British accent right right right,
Like I'm an extra understanding or like patient willing to
allow for people developing accents or just you know, any
anything that's like maybe pretty wacky. Also could be like

(50:04):
them coping with trauma. Like when it comes to child actors,
I feel like child actors more and more the more
evidence we have, we're just like, man, they were probably
so the worst way to grow up honestly, Like I
feel like the kids I grew up with were child actors,
Like only like a couple of them I can say
are like healthy functioning adults. Now, oh my god, just

(50:29):
a weird. I think a lot of it has to
do with just how what your relationship is to your parents, too,
because a lot of people just end up inverting the
child parent relationship the second that kid is generating like
TV money, and then it just begins like Okay, well
what's the next thing? What's the next thing? And like
as a parent telling your fucking twelve year old that,
like that's way too much pressure, and like especially if

(50:50):
they like they know the funky, like there's a funky
family situation to begin with, like just yeah, it's it
can't be not always the best. I remember with the
the change in her accent, she was like, I'm studying
a lot of languages right now. That's that's why this
is happening. And I love the for like drinking and

(51:11):
driving and doing dual lingo all at the same time.
So she'd used an accent to an accent work in
these movies. Check or what do we know is I
don't I don't believe. So I think we're back to
at least she's found some center that doesn't require them
to cast her as like a British national in the movie.

(51:31):
Because in this movie, you know, first of all, it's
a Christmas movie. You know, we're we're more than one
week into November. So I think we can all agree
it's time to take garbage bags over our windows and
start watching made for TV holiday movies. I was just
about to gesture to my garbage bag over my window
right there. Hey, that that's just good podcasting. Oh I

(51:53):
didn't even realize that was a garbage because that's how
I watched my Christmas movies. There you go. So this
one's called Falling for Christmas. It stars Lindsay Lohan. It
is basically Overboard but Christmas like Overboard the Goldie Hawn
Kurt Russell movie, except in the one What's so in

(52:13):
that Goldie Hawn is on a yacht, she falls overboard.
She is like a rich heiress and I think falls
overboard after after like being really shitty to a laborer
who is working on the yacht basically like has a
case of the old drowning that leaves her without her memory.

(52:34):
She like watches up on shore but can't remember anything.
And then the laborer like sees that she is missing
and go or sees that there's like an unidentified woman
at the hospital and goes and like basically brings her
on to be his wife. And Clay like lies very
very like very easy to confuse with a horror movie plot,

(52:58):
like you know, this person is kidnapping her. Easy to
confuse with the plot of Muppets Take Manhattan. I don't
know if you remember that. But Kermit hits his head
really right before he's supposed to do a starring role
on Broadway, and Mr Piggy has to go looking for
It's like a stress stream where you have to like

(53:19):
learn all the lines in like one day. Well, he
doesn't even know he's an actor. He ends up going
into advertising for a bit. It's actually a really good movie.
He thinks his name is Phil or something like that.
It's so funny because I know I've seen it, but
all the Muppet films. I just stopped watching like in childhood,
and like, as you said, I'm like, wait, this is

(53:40):
all coming. Yes, I've INTI this Manhattan before. Anyways, Despite
the fact that Lindsay Lohan's character has clearly suffered a
serious brain injury, the hospital staff quickly send her off
to live with some random dude, a ski lodge manager,
because because he offers which I guess it's based on

(54:02):
anxiety around our reckless healthcare system, you know where. They're like,
I don't know, we need we need the bed you got.
You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here.
And this fucker says you can live with him. You've
seen I don't. I don't know. He said you can
go him though. Fortunately the stranger is very handsome I

(54:23):
think romance and sues, but it's it does seem like
a bad idea. She needs further medical supervision. She has
a big TV head bandage situation going, and she's forced
to stay with a man she doesn't know. It's very
similar to Barbarians. The setup for Barbarian if you've seen
that movie, but it's also being heavily promoted as a

(54:44):
comeback and second chance for Lindsay Lohan, and people are
trying to make the phrase the low Hannah Sons happen. Nah,
come on, honestly, fetch has a better chance of happening
than low Hanna Sons, like honestly, and they may have,
but she's like second chance. She had like seven thousand chances.

(55:06):
It would be more like turbulent career. Another another moment
in this up and down career. Right, I remember in
Overboard it was like Goldie Hawn's character had like a
tattoo of a heart on one of her bought cheeks.
Do you remember that? Yeah, that's right, that's like an
identifying feature. Maybe Lindsay Lohan could have like an ankle monitor, right,

(55:28):
like who's the dude playing opposite her? Because like, is
Overboard like the beginning of the Kurt Russell Goldie Hawn relationship,
because weren't they on? Were they a bird on a
wire together? Too? Yeah? I think I think it was
after after that, And that's why we were fine with
the wildly predatory behavior of Kurt Russell towards Goldie Hawn

(55:51):
because people are like, well, they really love each other
in real life, so it's true, it's just a story
about them finding their you know pull or you know
so as just our new goldie and Kurt this guy, uh, whoever?
This guy? I thought it was Turtle from Entourage based
on the screen cap of this. Yeah, the screen cap
is not selling me on the handsomeness, but I'm sure

(56:12):
he's very handsome. He also is dressed like he was
someone who was at the at the Capitol on January six,
which does seem to be a prerequisite for for Hallmark
unk is, Like, was he there January six? Alright, we're good.
Could he reasonably be assumed to have been there? She
wakes up at Nancy Pelosi's desk. Oh, you're in my house,

(56:37):
But anything looks familiar in here? What is that the
lectern from Congress? Yeah? I was there. A writer jam
was pointing out that, like, it is kind of smart
writing because the main character like it. It is sort
of an allegorical version of a Lindsay Lohan comeback story.

(56:58):
The main character starts out spoiled and irritating. She bunks
her head and is given a new identity, humbled and
reduced to her core essence, revealing that she's a good
person deep down, And there's like that that is also
something that's happening in the media. I don't know if
this is part of like a pr push or like

(57:18):
how much money is being spent on this. There's a
BuzzFeed article with the headline, we really need to talk
about Lindsay Lohan, like she and I didn't add that,
Like that's in the headline. Like she is a completely
different person than she was a few years ago when
she was pulling up on that woman's like give me
your baby. Yes, I will take your child out safe

(57:38):
in the most ill ill informed way possible. Yeah, I
mean obviously pulling tugging out a child while mothers saying no,
I don't need your help. Maybe, but so she what
what do they say like in the article, like she's
so different now she like speaks with a different accent.
Now she sounds Dominican. You're gonna love it. We'll see, well,

(57:59):
we'll see if if there's any momentum here. The article
does not do a great job of, you know, laying
out a case that she is like a totally different
person's actually I'll believe it. Images and different things from
the mini fridge now, yeah, right, she only steals one
robe when she's staying out a hotel. Now not all

(58:20):
of the towels, okay, but I think the idea is
like this, in this story, this person who we all
deep down suspect, like we we loved her. She was
like so charming when she was a kid, like so
it's like she's stripped to her essence by this head injury.
Movie apparently even include a cover of jingle Bell Rocks

(58:41):
sung by Lindsay Lohan, which is a pretty conspicuous nod
to me. Girls, I don't love that. Yeah, that's you
don't need to do all that. It's a little much. Yeah,
it's like watch it for this, but watch it for this, right,
Oh guy, this is some oh some dude from Glee

(59:01):
is like the love interest Cord over Street Cord Yeah
that I got the gig on Glee, you know what
I mean. But the reviews are fucked up, man, for
all this ship of like New York Times falling for
Christmas review tripped down memory lane. But let's see Lindsay

(59:25):
low a throne sees anything else, but he still does
not have an alarm clock instead of having a In
the case of Overboard, the she is abandoned by her
wealthy husband I think he knows she's there, and he's like, oh,
she looks like a mess in that hospital picture. I'm
just gonna let her abandon her to the masses, essentially,

(59:49):
And in this one, instead of her husband, it's a
wealthy father who's the problem. I don't know the exact
plat maginations, but that feels you know, that also feels
like her interesting. You know what, I'm never listening to
New York Times because you know what Indie Wire said
about this movie, Lindsay Lohan's falling for Christmas is the
citizen Kane of Netflix. Christmas movie Thank You, The Low

(01:00:16):
Hand of Sons is officially upon us, complete with self
deprecating jokes and slave folds, a physical comedy Welcome Home, Lindsay.
So maybe that's what they're trying to say. Add Anti
lohand bias to the list of New York Times biases
and now I gotta watch see just off the strength
of the New York Times saying that, And some one
was being like, this is the citizen King of Netflix.
You can say that. I'm sorry, that's so powerful to

(01:00:38):
say that. You can't buy you can't buy coverage, Like,
I am curious what a voice sounds like now and
I accent aside. I want to know what level of
rasp we're getting, right we I think we can hear
it probably in the Should we just play real quick?
I can play a little bit of the You need
a special instrument to listen to it, like you do
to listen to Wales. Let me just get my tuning fork,

(01:01:01):
guys and put on This is binural audio, so please
put on both headphones. If you're driving over, pull over.
What your body here is not actual police sirens or explosions.
It's Lindsay Lohan's fantastic charisma. Oh. First, she's doing a
thing where she's introducing the trailer, so you want to
hear that. You want to hear the trailer voice. Let's

(01:01:22):
do the introduction. I mean, she's not gonna do a
totally different way we go. I want you to see
it too. Happy holidays everyone, Christmas has come early this year.
That's not that's smoking as many filterless cigarettes. Yeah, okay,
I'll buy that. Okay, let's see in the movie. Now,
let's see. Can we get a shot? What if we
go to the movie. I just want people to remember

(01:01:43):
me from more than my last name. Yeah, that's that
sounds right. Okay, Okay, all right, I mean, okay, Lindsey,
it's a little rough, you know what, I want the
Lindsay Lohan white noise machine. That's just like she does
have a rast. She always had a rask people she

(01:02:04):
always had Yeah, yeah, great, So it's better than it
could have been. And that is what I'm taking away
from that. I mean, honestly, I'm not like looking for
Lindsay Lohan to lose, you know, so I want, like
I said, I watched Lohan's Beach Club and after hearing
again it's the Citizen Kane of Netflix Christmas Films. That's

(01:02:25):
now I might have like, I might be really mad
if it's not what is that even supposed to indicate
exactly if it's the Citizens, like we're just saying, it's
like the most it's like seminal, it's the fucking is
the top? Yeah, I think the top of the top
of the heap. That's the implication, right, I'm I'm I'm
deciphering that correctly. Okay, Yes, that's the implication. I did

(01:02:48):
fall asleep during it in high school. However, it is
critically ahead of to the Rosebud part yeah. Well, Lizzie
Cooperman is such a play you're having you on the
d Where can people find you and follow you? Yes,
find me at Lizzie Cooperman on Instagram. Also, please listen

(01:03:10):
to my podcast that's Destroying My Life. It's called Lizzie
Cooperman's in Your Hands and the listeners are crowdsourcing my
life for me and I have a website, Lizzie Cooperman
dot com and as a result of my podcast, I'm

Savage Henry Comedy Club. Yes, I'd love to see you.
And is there a tweet or some of the work

(01:03:53):
of social media you've been Oh that's right, Oh okay, Well,
I don't know if you guys caught wind of this,
but Pete A. Hut twee did something. Well, they've got
something new, and the name of it is one of
my least favorite words in the world. It's called a melt,

(01:04:13):
the pizza hot melt. And I kind of loved this
thread just because I felt like it wasn't met with
the kind of fervent enthusiasm they expected. Like they were like,
the melt is here, and the whole campaign is like,
do not, like, don't you dare post a photo of
yourself eating the melt? And then no one posted a photo,

(01:04:35):
just a couple sad tweets like this is just a
folded up piece of pizza. I don't know. I always
I love seeing like, you know, companies try to be
like this is the thing, but it's just like a
different combination of the same ingredients. Because they paid a
bunch of like art school grads millions of dollars for

(01:04:59):
for this idea that they've come absolutely absolutely and it's
not it's not the pizza palooza they would have hoped for. Yeah,
also something that someone had probably paid hundreds of millions
of dollars for an ad agency to come up with.
Oh my god, that was actually what I called my
birthday in third grade that no one came to so funny.

(01:05:21):
I just came up with it. Now can we do
something with it? Yeah, Miles, where can people find you?

(01:06:03):
even really know. It's just okay, it's so funny on Twitter,
Like there's so much like like you know, seen on
the Titanic, or like it's been a pleasure playing gentlemen
this evening, like kind of fucking tweets all the time.
So I'm like, then I'm like going back to some
that I found. Uh. This one is from John Lee's
t becom com Exology one four at John Lee's it said,

(01:06:27):
I legit. Had to reread this several times before I
realized it wasn't intended to be a conversation between the
beta male and the alpha male. And it's a quote
tweet of this other account. This dude's like totally you know,
chud brain dude. It says, Beta male, So where do
you want to go? Alpha male? You're going to have
the best night of your life. I'll see you at

(01:06:47):
nine pm where that tight red dress. They're so they're
so cute together, the beta. I know. It's so funny
because even when I read it, I kept saying like, well,
this is a this is a dialogue, that's a conversation
every time I looked at and I think that's why
so many people were having trouble realizing what it was

(01:07:09):
trying to say, the difference between how beta mail and album.
They would say the same thing. I was like, why
you telling me? Wow, you're gonna take that beta mail out? Okay,
you can find me on Twitter at Jack Underscore O'Brien,

it's come to Twitter. I'm just gonna link off to
something in the footnotes that is this person, Drew Kaufman
is online tweeted trained my TikTok algorithm to show videos

(01:07:32):
that are so surreal you feel like you're dreaming. Here's
the threat of my favorites, and I'll just link off
to that because these are great. Some of them are
like works of art like that. It does feel like
when you go into like one of those video installations
at an art museum, like all of these would perfectly
fit in there. Dude, the wonder, the guy walking into

(01:07:54):
the foam garage, and the Conro O'Malley one is fucking
genius with the dump truck nachos. Oh yeah, yeah, I think, yeah, yeah,

do that song fighting and see that a lot of
people are like into now it's like a lot of

(01:08:58):
people describe this band is like being like a bit
of that, but it's also getting a little more electronics,

craft work show. But this song is like just really
awesome to listen to and all this stuff is super cool.
