especially now that you've heard. Uh let's talk about Uh
did the poop talk? Um? Are you okay with that? Oh? Please?

(02:59):
I love it. Do you know any people with weird
farting or pooping? You know? I grew up with the
father that's you, that's you might know him Master Fartman. Um. Yeah,
nothing I can think of. Didn't mean to put you
on the spot with that name someone. I mean, you

(03:20):
just outed your dad as something who parts They must
be mortified. Uh all right, we're gonna get to know
you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're
gonna tell our listeners a few of the things we're
talking about. We're gonna check in with what is deemed
the scariest haunted house in America. It's in Tennessee, and
you have to sign a forty page waiver to go there, Uh,

(03:41):
and watching two hour warning like training video seems too much.
We're gonna check in with what we've learned since Bill
Taylor's testimony. We're gonna check in with what we've learned
about how the you Cranian leader felt about those calls

(04:02):
that he he had with the President, the perfect perfect,
how the Republicans are feeling about this whole impeachment inquiry,
how they're totally not panicking. A couple a couple of
interesting takes, one from Dick Toilett Matt Whittaker on abuse

(04:24):
of power, one from Mitch McConnell on what he thought
about Trump's perfect perfect phone call, and yet another from
Trump's attorneys in Manhattan arguing that he could in fact
shoot someone in the middle of the Fifth Avenue and
they wouldn't be able to do ship. Uh. They literally
said that in court. Uh. We're gonna check in with

(04:46):
an NBA conspiracy theory we worked through Miles came up
with today. We're gonna check in with another edition of
men Got uh and Uh. The Joker Stairs, our new
now national monument. The stairs from that dancing scene in
The Joker makes more sense. We've taken a dump on

(05:06):
the stage of liberty at this one. Um. But first, Maddie,
we like task our guess, what is something from your
search history that's revealing about who you are? Great? I
recently googled our parents allowed in hospitals because I was
visiting a family member in the hospital and there was
a parent there truly every day I was there. Um,
there was like a patient who had a parent on
shoulder every day and I was gonna knock on her. Um. Yeah,

(05:31):
it was like a weird like we work space she
had like a parent was just um, you know at
the hospital. Yes, he was like the parent was inside
the hospital every single day day. I was visiting, like
on the floor on the hospital floor, on a shoulder,
and it was of a patient. Another piece must be
a support parent. Yeah, maybe. I googled that after. I
was like do they count? It was like what happened

(05:53):
to docks? Like we can just bring dogs back? Yeah,
so the parent really bothered you? Huh? It was just
terry doing this motherfucking hospital, not a fucking pirate ship.
It really felt like a zoo. It felt like a weird. Yeah.
I'm just curious, but you know, and did you find
an answer? We don't know, no idea. You didn't even
do like the thing to like the nurse like around

(06:13):
me like that. I can't imagine that's who you are, right,
that's gotta because maybe you just throw them. I don't huh.
I should have tweeted at the hospital. That would have
been the stop. Yeah, Delta airlines right at whatever hospital. Um,
there's a fucking macaw in here. Macaw rather macaw is
the gambling island. I know, so, Maddie, why do you

(06:35):
hate birds? Oh? I don't hate birds. I'm not interesting,
it's interesting. I think I think they're dirtier than cats. Right,
birds are dirtier than cats? Yeah? Probably, I don't know.
I don't know. I don't like birds because they because
they look like dinosaurs. Right, I mean most animals are
dirtier than cats. Cats ship in designated areas or can

(06:56):
be taught to do that. I don't know the ship
every have a bird? Twitter in our mentions. Yeah, I
didn't mean to come out with anti bird. I didn't
really mean. What is underrated? Underrated? Um? Talking on the phone.
Everyone hates to do it, but I really like it. Yeah,
you're bringing it back. I've heard that recently. From somebody else,

(07:20):
another young person who's into talking on the phone and
can't get friends to do it. I have friends. If
they get like an unknown call, they'll just send it
to voicemail. I always pick up. You always pick up. Yeah,
you are a scammer's dream. I know. But it's like,
I don't know why I was so afraid. It feels like,
you know, to pick up a number you don't know. Yeah,

(07:40):
I typically it's weird. I at this point, most people
just text all the time, right, um, And I just
have a rule if your number is not saved in
my phone, I'm not picking up because nine out of
ten times it's a fucking robot call, or like telling
me about some rebate that the state of California is
giving for solar panels, or I'm brother, this this is
not me. Do you have the new iPhone setting that

(08:03):
sends all unknown calls that aren't from your contact list
into like directly to voicemail. No, that's a that's a
new setting that I had on and I was like, Wow,
this is so much more peaceful. But then I did
one of those things where you can like you're on
hold and you have them call back and at like
six voicemails. It's like your voicemails. Uh, cell phone exactly

(08:25):
do you guys call your friends to catch up with
them or do you, like, yeah, if they don't live
in the state like around the phone call is really
the only way you can like speak to someone like
you don't you can't get a lot done in text.
And also, you know, at my age, being an elder millennial,
we grew up talking on phones all the time. So like,
to me, that's more normal than texting. Yeah. So yeah,

(08:49):
FaceTime though, that's when you get a FaceTime you weren't
expecting it, so scary. That's a lot it's violent. Yeah,
I would say, to be honest, if I'm like high
and I have no shirt on and your face siming
me no no, no, no no. Yeah. I think that's
maybe a good rule in general, is never FaceTime somebody
without texting first and being like, hey, I wanna down

(09:10):
to ft down to ft yea uh d t ft.
I've noticed myself facetiming like my sister and she just
like won't answer ever unless I do the text first,
like set up a time. Yeah, I think that's probably
a good rule for myself. I need to just stop
randomly facetiming my sister x is or you know, I

(09:34):
would like build a home that where are you make
my cell phone inert and I could only use accorded
phone telephone. Yeah, just to be like have that like
sort of go back to simpler times when I'm in
my own space. I have a computer up fine, very scarface, yeah,
with the with the the globe that says the world
is mine, yes or yours, whatever one it was. What

(09:55):
is something you think is overrated? I don't love hot tubs.
I'm not a person. Yeah, what do you mean? I
don't love being hot in general? And I feel like, yes, um,
and I feel like being in hot water. It's a
lot of skin cells, and I know it's disgusting that. Yeah,
you don't want being in his body soup? Yes, And

(10:16):
then bring it back to my father. He's someone who
regularly passes out and hout tops like it's too hot,
We're worried. I really feel like it's a Harrison Ford
like suicide of Ton thing where he's like, I just
passed out on an accident. It wasn't on purpose, right, Yeah,

(10:37):
But a lot of the times you're just thinking all
this body lint. Yeah, you can see it in the water.
It's floating. And I've never been in a hot tub
with like clean people. It's always like, you know, guys
I knew freshman year of college who are like using
this as a bath. Yes, they're like, why do you
keep scrubbing your arm under the water. They're like something
feeling myself and I'm not exfoliating here in the working

(11:00):
hot tub. Was in a hot tub with a guy
who's eating red vines that got wet from the hot
top water and continued eating them. I'm okay with that.
I'm okay with that. Yeah, to be honest, I mean
I'm trash. I'm not saying that he's right. I'm saying
I'm disgusting. Yeah, that doesn't do anything to me because
you know, my mind visceral glory. Yeah exactly. And I'm like,
what's a little skin cells friends, and also strange, it's

(11:23):
basically like pre softened for you a little bit, you know.
So also, you know, actually I'm a little more upset
about the I don't like red vines in a hot tub.
I don't like just in general. I'm not a big
red vines fans. I'm like twizzler. Yeah, catch me and
twizzlers that have been dipped and submerged in a hot tub.
Red vines you can use as a straw, right yep, disgusting. Yeah,

(11:44):
that's again that's an abomination. Is he doing that? That
would be I would can you stop capt saying that
sa tesis and when he's like, oh, fart snorkel, that's
why I fart and I try and get the air
bubbles underneath the water, okay, just me? Yeah, alright, well

(12:10):
person t r person soup either way. Not feeling it? Yeah,
well but I like, but I get that, but this
feeling of a hot tub is nice. Yeah, like a
hot bath maybe. Yeah. See that's why you're like, are
you an ice bath person? You say, I'm like an athlete, right, yeah,
I mean I would do look warm. I'm like a
big So do you do cold showers? Yes? Wow? Do

(12:33):
you guys in the summer? Yeah, when the like ambient
temperature is hot, I'm like, I don't need to get
this hot. I just need to be very uncomfortable to
do a cold shower, really very Yeah. I don't like
even with your sweats, you don't feel like that's not
the hack to be like because my body showers itself
and it's already self that I don't I've never really

(12:55):
gotten overheated to the point that I needed a culture.
It feels so good to walk up a could. Sure
feels like taking like a natural just like you're ready
when we'll see when it's cold and you have a
freezing bathroom and take a cold shower, that's a level
of shivering. I'm not you only do that if you're
punishing yourself, or yes, or trying to sober before a podcast. Right,

(13:19):
that's right, Miles. Clothes are completely dressed, always dressed, some
always You got half washed off ax body wash on
my neck? Do they do? Hot tubs need more chemicals
than a pool because like bacteria more easily and you
sweat in them. Right, yeah, I don't know pool pools,
that gang pool maintenance, that gang. Yeah, I know some

(13:41):
of you all out there because we've talked when I
was maintaining trying to maintain glorine levels. What's the rule?
Do you need more? You need more chemicals for the soup?
Are they worse for you? Worse to drink? Well? I
was gonna say, like in Japan, right, like there's a
lot of their bath culture is very big there, but
you you have to clean your body before get into
a tough You can't just hop in and soup it

(14:02):
up with your dead skin. You got, yeah, exactly like
you know, we respect because you get like people clock
that and they're like getting in that fucking bathroom breath
floating around. So do exploit the funk at yourself? Yeah,
And I remember as a kid, there's like this Japanese
scrubbing cloth. I'm sure all these people have it, remember,
just a fucking At the beginning, I didn't understand why

(14:23):
she was like buffing my skin down to like the
new parts. And then as I realized, I was like, oh,
it's exfoliating and you gotta kind of put some elbow
grease into this. Do you guys go to we Spa?
Are you fans? I feel like that's like the first
thing people do when they get unemployed, like late, just

(14:44):
chilled like for like deep into the night, after hours.
It's good self care, good stuff. What is a myth? Well,
now I'm afraid because I've spent so much time talking
about my father already, but it was about my father father.
I was there, um my like the apple fall. Wait
the apple apple doesn't. Yeah, so my dad is a

(15:07):
Somalian works in wine. I hate wine so much. I
won't drink it. I won't smell it. I feel like
it tastes like battery acid. Yeah, it's really weird. I
think it's like a probably like a weird psychological thing
where I just grew up watching you. I have one sister.
Are you the older or the younger? Younger? Okay, you're
the youngest. Yeah, and you're pushing back again and your

(15:27):
your oldest sister likes wine. Yes, wow, you know that.
Thank you. This has been my ted talk. Wait, so
do you like other forms of Yeah? I drink cocktails,
but I won't drink wine. Yeah, it's just you just can't.
Is it the first thing you're like, I don't like it.
But do you think if you stripped away did your
did your dad like wax on and on about wine

(15:48):
all the Yeah? I think it's because like when I
was a teenager, I couldn't go in tasting rooms. My
dad would leave me in the parking lot. Just is
this your dad like falling of warm red? He was

(16:09):
just like avoiding my mom by going to wine tastings, Right,
I don't like it plastic, that's you're right? Yeah. So
are you like you when you're at Thanksgiving? Are you
the only one not drinking wine? Yeah? Yeah I think so. Yeah,
I have wine. Know. I was just wondering, like family wise, right, yeah. Well,

(16:32):
I just feel like when I think about it, there
is wine because even my my, like my dad's side,
their wine didn't start coming to the picture to like
later on before there was a lot of wine on
the tape right now. I think they think they made
it or something. It's so scary when someone like fines
wine when they turned like fifty four, right, I look
to be honest. Um my, I was a little bit

(16:55):
ignorant about wine. I thought there were only four kinds
red white, screw top and core actually five and box um.
And then I went to Italy for the first time.
When I was in Tuscany, I went to the San
Bolognano winery and I fell in love with at that
to say it maybe taste. There's this haunted house in Tennessee.

(17:20):
Uh that far from any winery, probably to some whiskey distilleries.
You know what a haunted house should be. A world
without this Kiante shut the U in a way. So
there's this gentleman Rustum mcami who owns and operates what
claims to be the most terrifying haunted house experiencing America

(17:42):
names well h. He follows the people through with a
video camera because they will like tryan sue him because
they're so fucked up. The exact Nathan for You bit
where he was like, you're gonna make your your haunted
house popping because you're gonna be so scary, people sue you. Yeah,

(18:04):
it's basically it's it is. That's the exact premise that
Nathan offers the Haunted House owner that episode. Okay, films
every tour. He then publishes the results on his YouTube page.
I haven't had a chance to watch the hours and
hours of footage of people walking around in the dark,
but yeah, it just seems it seems next level. He

(18:25):
makes you watch a two hour video on what like
just how to can be scared? Yeah, I think basically
or like primes you, yeah, you're not allowed to. There's
all this long list of like you can't touch the actors,
you can't do any of this stuff, and then primes
you to be scared, which I wonder if that. Like,
he also talks in this article that's like a profile

(18:45):
of him from the local news about hypnosis. So I
wonder if like part of the video is priming you
like to be scared and like in particular, so that
like when you go in, everything that you're like hearing
in the dark becomes something really or hold on, are
they waterboarding people in here? I'm watching this clip. This

(19:06):
woman is covered in blood crying. Yeah, someone has a
hand around her throat. Now is that her own throat
or is that him? It looks like they're dude holding
the camera. Looks like a dark as p OV porn video. Yeah,
that's really kind of the vibe you get. He is
he's never drank, taking an illegal drug or sworn. He's

(19:32):
never even had a cup of coffee. He's so he's
like this, you know, he's like Trump, Right, he's the Yeah,
he's the teetotaler who's getting his jolly's by porn blood
on women and strangling them on. Yeah, I think that
might be what we're dealing with. But you can you
can experience it for yourself. What's this challenge I'm reading? Yeah,
he will I think pay you. I think there's a

(19:55):
twenty thousand dollar prize if you can make it all
the way through the haunted House. There's something like this
in San Diego to actually where it's supposed to be
the most immersive, disturbing experience you having people come from
all over the country to do it because it is
so fucked up and it's sort of the same thing
where you're just you're basically being like mentally tortured for

(20:18):
like eight eight hours straight. People are like, oh, yeah,
it was great, and other people like, I don't know,
I shouldn't have done this, um right yeah um And
apparently you he deducts money from your twenty dollar prize
if you curse. So yeah, so you just have to

(20:46):
keep it pg as somebody's like water boarding you with
fake blood. But I'm just looking at this preview video
is on his channel. I'm like, this is all kinds
of bad. But I get it. I mean, like if there,
but I get why. There's so many people who I
know who are into this ship, like they're like I
want to get fucking freaked the funk out. Yeah, I
wonder what that is, Like what that is internally? What

(21:09):
if you just didn't have a lot of adversity. You're like,
I want to be scared. That's people. Yeah, Like you're like, man,
I would love to have like kinds of existential threats
coming at me, right Yeah. Yeah. I mean when you
think about it, like our like whole nervous system was
shaped at a time when we hadn't fully escaped the
food chain, so we are like we were built to

(21:32):
experience life altering fear, like on a regular basis. So
people probably who are too bored, I think you're right,
just go and seek it out. For women, you can
just walk home at night with headphones in experience. Yeah,
I think that's next year's use the headphone challenge. Uh yeah, boy,

(21:55):
well Ross mccame me. Good luck to you, sir. Yeah,
I hope. Man, I'm I'm gonna want I'm gonna dig
in a little bit more. I want to see how
because it sounds like it's basically saying you're going to
sign a waiver and and and and indemnification agreement where
I will abuse you. Yeah. He says a common fear
people share is water, So like somehow he's turning water

(22:16):
into a haunted house attraction. Why not, like can listen
the army if you're gonna you know, yeah, yeah, because dude,
he's doing ship like duct taping people's eyes shut, like
wrapping it around their heads. I'm more like, what about
the back of your head? All that hair you're gonna
pull out? Yeah, that's good hair back there. Hey man,
that's some good hair back there. That's where that forty

(22:38):
forty page waiver comes in. Let's go to Burbank for
the haunted houses there. Uh no, I've there's one in
North Hollywood. I went to last year that this dude has,
and he was so stoked. He's like, I save all
my money to do this for the kids, for the
kid and I was like, but he was like, but
he he you could tell it was truly like in
the spirit of Halloween. And he's like, I just really

(22:58):
like to see that, like I can like kids in
the neighborhood have something to do in the neighborhood. Yeah,
And I was like, oh, look at you. Yeah, And
I'm like, also, brother, you hunt houses trash? Was it
really bad? I think I scared one of the characters
because I went the wrong way and like they were
on like a cigarette break or something like oh funk.
I'm like, oh no, this is your living room. All right,

(23:20):
We're gonna take a quick break. We'll be right back.
And we're back, and uh, we have a little bit
better visibility than we did yesterday into what Bill Taylor's

(23:41):
testimony was. It's been called a smoking cannon, smoking cannon,
fucking everything direct line connecting Trump to the withholding of
military aid for political gain. I mean, he basically just
destroyed every argument that they, the GOP in the White House,
were using to defend his actions. Uh he had. I mean, look,

(24:04):
it's you knew it was bad when his opening statement
was fifteen pages long. Everything we know about his testimony
is from this fifteen page opening statement that the Washington
Post got their hands on. So we don't know what
the fucking testimony is. We know what the fucking opening
statement was. And the opening statement was enough to say
basically he was. It starts off saying, well, when I

(24:25):
took over for Maria Ivanovitch in Ukraine, I realized that
they were there was a traditional diplomatic channel people are
using and this quote irregular one, which was basically Rudy
Giuliani and company doing their own shadow foreign policy. Um.
And then he said, oh yeah, Gordon Solon told me
that Trump wanted Zelinsky to publicly declare investigations into Barisma

(24:48):
in the twenty sixteen election or there was nothing. And
Gordon Solond, if you remember we were talking about last week,
he his whole thing was to go up there and
be like, I no, I didn't I never thought that
I don't know anything about this. I'm just I'm just
a guy who paid a million dollars to be a
diplomat um. And you know, as he says in the statement,
it was the most damning testimony I've heard. Debbie Washman

(25:10):
Schultz said, uh, he drove a very specific line from
the president to withholding foreign aid in the refusal of
a meeting um and that he basically wanted to put
Zelenski in quote a public box by making these statements
public about these investigations. So, I mean, Gordon sold is
probably a deep ship too. Now he's probably gonna come
back and you're like, uh, sir, did you a lie
to us because you said you didn't know a fucking thing?

(25:33):
But all this is he testifying under oath? Like would
that be yeah, yeah, this is under oath. That's why
this is so damning. This is Bill Taylor, who is
like an army officer, career diplomat. Fucking sir, he was
a bush bush to appointee. This is not like someone
they can I mean, I'm we'll see if they try
and be like or whatever. But it was just fucking

(25:54):
calling him as he saw them. Uh. And I think
one of the biggest things though, too, is that it
true he just lays bare that like Rudy Giuliani and
Donald Trump knew exactly what they were doing, they were
directing all these other people to do it. There's there's
just no way to deny this anymore. So who knows
what the fucking testimony was, what his actual deposition was like,
because this is from the fucking pre typed up statement

(26:16):
he submitted. And this is all relevant and important because
it is Trump cheating at election. That's important. And also
again when you look at the knock on effects if
if if it turns out Ukraine was the one meddling
in our elections, then Russia's off the hook and no

(26:36):
more sanctions. And if Ukraine, because we've completely made them
feel destabilized in terms of like the dependability of American
military aid, that would make them closer to making a
deal with Russia to end the conflict and probably give
up part of Crimea. And then again once that conflicts over,
oh now there's no more invading Crimea sanctions for Russia either.

(26:57):
So there's like down the road these things play out,
they always they do benefit Russia. But again that's neither
here or there, because really we're getting really focusing on
what this actual thing is. It's just a complete, uh
you know, corrupt act. That's the stuff that's going to
come out like a couple of years down the road,
is like how it all tied into if it happens,

(27:18):
and you know, we'll see I mean, yeah yeah. Also
kind of putting the lie to Trump's argument that there
wasn't quit pro quo was Ukrainian officials are coming out
and being like, oh, yeah, we totally got the subtext
of that phone call and every phone call that uh
we've had prior with Trump. There was, you know, the

(27:40):
phone call that we have the memo kind of outlining,
but there was also an earlier phone call where Trump
called to congratulate him on his election that they actually
make reference to in the phone call we saw in
the memo, and where we don't know specifically what was said.
But Zelinsky had to call a group of advisors into

(28:02):
a meeting on May seven, uh and basically be like, well,
what do we do here? This is Trump won't give
us aid if we don't do this bullshit investigation. So yeah,
it's basically, you know, they're just confirming from their side
exactly what Taylor was saying. Yeah, it's I mean, it
was very quiet from the GOP after this because they

(28:27):
did not they didn't know what the fund to say.
But you know who didn't know what to say? Who
that was Acting Attorney General, former Acting Attorney General, uh,
Matt Whittaker to the man. If you don't if you're
if you're a new listener, you know, the lord of
Dick toilet. He was. He was a football player. Where

(28:50):
do you play? University of Wisconsin. Yeah, something I don't know.
I don't want to look. I don't want to defame
the matters like that. But anyway, he designed a toilet
for people with big balls, so your balls don't go
on the toilet water. So he was like, he's like,
this is something we need. He like tried to make
up like patent. I think he did patent pat toilet

(29:11):
and he became Attorney General before William Barton. Um. So
we that's why called Dick toilet. He was on Laura
Ingram's show, because again they're saying the fallout from Bill
Taylor's testimony was essentially, oh, yes, he was abusing his
power for his own political gain. It was a total

(29:33):
abuse of the power of the office of the president. Um.
And he just gave us because we don't, we can't.
They can't defend anything. This is what his rebuttal was.
Abuse of power is not a crime. Let's fundamentally blew
it down to you know, the competition is very clear
that this has to be some pretty egregious behavior and
they cannot tell the American people what this case is

(29:56):
even about. They have to do it in secret. Mm
hmm um, whoa where do we start with? Is it
a crime? Not a crime? How about corruption? Right? How
about extortion not a crime? Not a crime? Okay, I guess,
I guess not he this is but I mean, this

(30:17):
is where this is where they're at. Right, this is
what I'm trying to change the They can't. Yeah, the
goal line by saying that you know it's not a crime,
therefore you shouldn't be impeached when that's not the definition
of what that's so lit. It's also crazy when he's
like the American people can't be told what this is about, right, Yeah, Yeah,
they are being told what it's about, and you don't

(30:37):
like it. So you're just trying to be like arguing
the words now because they can't argue, they can't defend
the actions, so they have to look at everything else
around it. And I think that's the biggest sign. When
you have no like really intellectually non bankrupt argument, you
have to have technicalities. Yeah, And and that's that's sort

(30:58):
of where everything is at UM and which plays in
even more to what happened on Wednesday, UM when Laura Cooper,
who is basically this of Pentagon official um was the
Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense basically for Russia, Ukraine and Eurasia,
was gonna give private testimony. Again, this is all normal
because even sudden you're doing it in secret. First of all,

(31:20):
there's these are bipartisan hearings, so there are Republicans in
there and they have the exact same amount of time
to ask questions as the Democrats. Something they're not being
like all right, all the Republicans funk off real question
into our secret Democrats ship's like they have no secrets too,
as if they've never done anything. So it's just and again,
this happened with Benghazi like it was people I guess

(31:43):
who everybody cooperated with subpoenas from Mike Pompeio at the
time and Trey Goudy circus show um. But now suddenly
when this is just the typical refrain from the Republicans
when it's their turn to be held accountable, not even
that Benghazi was a real anyway, that's the whole thing,
But now it's their turn to answer for ship like
this is this is just so corrupt. So what happened

(32:05):
was obviously Bill Taylor's testimony was awful um for the
administration and all their spin. And so this woman Laura
Cooper was going to testify fucking a group of Republican congressmen.
They barged in to this closed door testimony to physically

(32:26):
stop her her deposition. They fucking like barged into this
fucking thing, stormed the castle, stormed the fucking room. While
they are doing this, also when incriminating way to prove
that she's correct, if they're threatened by what she asked
that they're gonna physically like with cell phones, because first

(32:46):
of all, these are all happening in a skiff, and
we talked about the skiffs were a big thing, went
Mara Lago initially because Trump wasn't used anyway. It's say
what they call a sensitive compartmented information facility because you
don't need any information getting out of there. You can't
have cell phones in there. It's like for truly to
be like in this boy, nothing leaves this right. And

(33:07):
it was a big deal mar mar Lago because he
wasn't using one, and he was or like fucking uh
talking about it outside of one, just like not exactly.
He was trying it like a Italian restaurant where he
was just like doing business. People couldn't overhear him talking
about police and policy and whether they the world was
about to end. So they essentially hopped into this thing

(33:31):
and immediately Adam Schiff and the witness Lord Cooper there,
He's like, let's get the funk out. This is ridiculous. Uh,
And then Matt Gates had this cool like thing where
he was like, oh, this is just you know, they're
doing everything in secret, and this is just so corrupt
that we had to violate all these rules and act
completely unethical to stop this thing that is completely legal

(33:53):
and lawful. So again, very chill. What is their argument, Like,
are they're claiming because Nancy Pelosi hasn't held a vote
or something like that. Well, essentially, their whole thing is
that it's happening behind closed doors. That's the thing. That's
why even when you heard Dick Toilet's say and it's
all happening in secret, that's been this other thing they're saying,

(34:14):
like why is it all secret? Why do they got
to do with all this closed door like like it's
a grand jury or something like they're investigating something now
with Nixon's hearings. I remember in that podcast low Burm
when they were talking about like public public sentiment changing
over the course of time. It was public hearings like

(34:37):
basically this process happening on television that changed everybody's mind.
Is that do you remember? Was that the Senate or
was that this process the House? I don't know. I mean,
I know eventually the a lot of the reporting says
that they are going to start like publicly doing these Yeah,
I think from the other side, like it feels like

(34:57):
we're getting these huge revelation actions, but they're coming out
in like drips and drabs because I think what they're
doing is when they know it and they go public,
there's they want to be able to present this information
in a way that can catch whatever lame defense the
Republicans have like off guard because like the Fox News
will still have to show the hearings, right like oh yeah,

(35:20):
I mean, who knows how the Whereas like the only
people who are reporting on the drips and drabs of
bad news for Trump that are coming out of these hearings,
are you know fake news? Yeah a p and uh no.
Even yesterday, right after Bill Taylor gave his deposition, Jim

(35:42):
Jordans came out and all the reporters trying to be like, oh,
what happened in there? And he was ashen faced and
did not say anything. Yeah, So that shows you something too,
because Democrats will come out and they were like, I
can't really tell you what I saw, but whoa Joey
Lawrence who It was fucking wet, wacky in there. And
so I think when you see these people and a

(36:03):
lot of the even a lot of the descriptions of
the reactions of the Congress, the congressional members during Taylor's deposition,
or a lot of people just being like, we're just
reeling so And I think the other thing too, is
just like Trump the day before was saying, you know, I,
you know these uh, the GOP really needs to step
it up. They gotta get more aggressive and defend me.
I think this is this storming of the skiff. Is

(36:26):
that sort of outward demonstration to his boot liquors legion.
They're like, you see what we did. We just barged
in on this closed door hearing for you also feel
like like a business e like succession vibe where it's
like you're just walking into meetings and conference that's how
business man watch that. He's like, how do we get
logan really on our side? Mr? President? That's the actor

(36:50):
Brian Cox playing apart what fuck? Uh? But I mean
so he also came out and talked about how Mitch
McConnell was totally backing him on his version of That
was October three, right when this ship was coming out
with the transcript, Like I think right after the memo
had come out, just listen, this is a this is

(37:10):
a thing of something. Trump's ad October three, trying to
drag Mitch McConnell to his defense, and then Mitch McConnell
on I believe Tuesday or Wednesday. I read Mitch McConnell's
statement yesterday and he read my phone call, and as
you know it put out his statement that said that
was the most innocent phone call he's read. And I
spoke to him about it too. He read my phone

(37:32):
call with the President of Ukraine, Mitch McConnell, he said
that was the most innocent phone call that I've read.
I mean, give me a break, okay, that his phone
call the Ukrainian president was that the president. We've not

(37:53):
had any conversations on subject. I don't recall any calms
sessions with the President about that. I don't know her.
I who know, Yeah, that's again, I mean before in
the past. You know, Mitch McConnell is more than willing

(38:14):
to provide cover. I don't know. I don't know what
this means. If you're if you got your it's Mueller time,
mug and hat on right now, you're probably but that's it, right,
But I don't know. I think it's definitely clear that
he's distancing himself from this to take that for what
it is. But at the same time he's also just saying, well,

(38:36):
you'd have to ask him. I don't recall, so it's
still weasily. The most innocent phone call is such a
funny phrase. Can we actually explore that? What would an
innocent I read dozens of phone calls a day and
up there with the most innocent of that? You know,

(38:56):
my hobby is innocent transcript So this was this was
like a baby lamp um perfect. I don't know, like, no,
no stumbling, no, I mean, it's just Trump speak, it's
just he no, I know, but I only has access
to a handful of words. But I just I want
to live in that world right where someone goes, oh

(39:18):
fu yeah, a perfect call, you ship, yeah perfect. Now
he was at the top right, he said his name right,
and then you're like, dude, I think your wife is
a really lovely person. Oh my god, love bar Man
perfect born on third thinking he had a triple born

(39:41):
on like fourth think he's like, it's a new base
on the rich too. Yeah, we'll see just another check
in with the election, one more just little piece of
evidence on the Bernie blindness thing. There was a poll
of head to head matchups. They did Biden versus Trump,
Warren versus Trump, Buddha Judge versus Trump, and Kamala Harris

(40:05):
versus Trump. Uh, and then they also did Biden and
Warren versus Pence. But they nowhere to be seen. Bernie
like that they just didn't show the results or that
they didn't even bother to They didn't get the question,
so they don't even have the data. They tested the
three of the top four and also Kamala Harris, who

(40:27):
has plummeted, and they were like, so uh. Somebody asked them.
They were like, why didn't you test Bernie And the
person's explanation was that Buddha Judge is surging, which it
turns out that story was kind of a media narrative.
He's been pulling around thirteen percent and Iowa steadily, and
people just were like, well, now that he kind of

(40:48):
had a good debate or a debate that got a
lot of media attention, we're going to pay attention to
the fact that he's been pulling a uh and Harris
has stalled, and so he's like, we just wanted to
see what it was like. Uh. People who are surging installing,
except uh, like I said, Boujadge isn't surging and Harris

(41:10):
hasn't installed. She's plummeting. Basically, she's like in the realm
of your bedos and Bookers, like she's not really there anymore. Um.
But Sanders, I mean, it's just, uh, they don't think
that Sanders is a legitimate candidate. They're like, eventually, eventually

(41:30):
he's going to go away, so let's just ignore him
until he do well. Then he has a plenty of
supporters who don't need those posts to know that they're
they're to the movement that he's representing. Well, you know,
it's like Larry Agren, isn't he having like the most
attended rallies right now? Like his rallies are huge, the highest,

(41:53):
the biggest rally. I mean, it was when he announced AOC,
or when AOC announced her or because she had done
it like Twitter I think before. But yeah, so it
is that also probably helped that it was AOC in
New York. But either way, I mean, he's going to
draw a crowd, right yeah, But I don't think he's

(42:15):
the front runner. And in fact, there was a Biden
poll that came out that likes put him back way
out in front, and granted it was only one pole,
but it was pretty significant and one that's like not
a complete garbage pole. So things may be stabilizing for Biden.
It's just weird when I don't know, he just don't

(42:36):
a couple more town halls and eye, yeah, blood pouring
into his eye. His teeth just turned black in the
middle of his sentence. You're like, oh my god. Yeah. Um,
but yeah, like I said, I'm not like a Bernie stand.
I just do think it's noteworthy when the media has

(42:59):
this black spot. Miles. You were talking about a documentary
he saw, Well, there's this documentary from called Spin and
it's just a lot of footage from the campaign presidential campaign.
It's a lot of like raw satellite feeds and stuff.
And there was a candidate, Larry Agrin who he was
from Irvine, California. It wasn't like the most compelling guy,

(43:19):
but you know, a lot of this stuff. He was like,
you know, we have a lot of urban issues, like
in terms of funding the city's like, our cities are crumbling,
and he was sort of like one of the things
he's talking about was reducing defense spending to put that
into like city infrastructure support programs, and the media completely
erased him from the campaign, like you don't you wouldn't
be able to know, you'd think it was Jerry Brown

(43:41):
and a few other people running like with Bill Clinton
for the Democratic nomination. But he was full on like
being cropped out of photos, like when he only got
one interview. He was pulling at the same as other
candidates and even better than some, and being not included
in debates to the point that he was like showing
up screaming like I should be up there with the
fund is this um? And you know, I mean that

(44:02):
was a very different landscape now because people, I think,
much more savvy now. But there is this there is
this sort of like gatekeeper class in the media too
that does this sort of thing. And I think it's
just a little it's it's just disingenuous, I think, just
journalistically to completely ignore something. I mean not that polsters
or journalists, but like, if you're gonna do be doing
some kind of analysis, why not make it meaningful? Yeah,

(44:25):
And I just think that they have their own opinions
about who has a realistic shot and from the beginning.
You know, that guy was somebody they were like, no,
he's got no shot. Yeah, he was arrested for trying
to get on the debate stage because he's like, I'm
pulling as the same as this guy, like I have
four percent was in front of a couple of people

(44:45):
by the end, and yeah, we found out burning the
whole time. Well, he actually ended up like if you know,
like Orange County politics, he got into this whole thing
where like he developed there's like this huge park thing
that was being built, and it was just an uttered
to like finance with disaster. So I wouldn't say he
was necessarily the same kind of figure, but probably an
example of how like you know, the media can squeeze

(45:09):
out well, but they're looking out for us. I mean,
they knew that this guy was a total funk up.
And there was a thing too where he's like he
was complaining about the media coverage and he's like, well,
you don't have enough media coverage to get media coverage, right.
It's like that thing where you're applying for a job
and it's like, well we need someone with more experience,
like there, I need this experience. What I need the

(45:31):
experience to get this doesn't make sense. Do you think
social media has made that better because he can like self, um, yes, yeah, yeah,
you don't need TV. I mean there was only one
way to get out there, like radio, TV or newspapers.
They don't have TikTok, fucking Twitch and Twitter and all
this ship because Mary Williamson, I feel like was largely
grassrooted through people who thought she feels funny. I probably

(45:53):
found out about her through Twitter, right, yeah, for being
the jokey ORB candidate. Yeah, And I mean I do
you know I I was talking about how this is
something that you could argue having to trump in and
he was able to get past it. I think at
least partially because of social media and Twitter. Um well,
he was like a but then it became a funny

(46:16):
like a joke worth and that's when it changed a
little bit. But like, you know what, let's see what this.
Can you believe this guy? The coverage and then actually
became that they were like, you know, I'm not saying
he had an unfair disadvantage, like once the election got
to the general election, but just at the beginning, I
think people were like, wow, this is never gonna happen.

(46:38):
Should have been jab huh police clap. Uh. Yeah. And
then there was also that the fact that the the
news networks, like I knew he was good TV, so
they put him on. And when he hosted U s
a Now and like late I embraced it and Jimmy
fallon tustle just to pay all right, we're gonna take
another quick break. We'll be right back. And we're back,

(47:11):
and so is the NBA. You get. The Lakers played
the Clippers. Uh the game, it was a very good game. Uh.
This is the new look Lakers with Anthony Davis, the
new look Clippers with Kawuai Leonard and Paul George is
looking like he's one of the oscars. The fun was

(47:31):
that outfit? Yeah, alright, night's opening night, I get it. Yeah,
wasn't he where in a tuxedo? You're like a fucking
shimmery tuxedo. Whatever, that's fine. There was also a new
look for the NBA's the headwear of the players. Yes,
this is the thing I've noticed as a man losing
their hair as your hairline starts running for the border
of the back of your skull. Uh, you know, the

(47:54):
headband can be your best friend, can obscure your hairline, okay,
just like these hats do. And I suspect I don't
know what it is, but the NBA headbands seem thicker
than they have over they've gotten thicker, like wider the
width of them. They used to be like like you'd
see in the eighties aerobics videos, like kind of a
little head That's what we thought a headband was that

(48:15):
the people were rocking the eighties and nineties, and then
we got full, like nearly full on beanies that they're
wearing like a muffler. Because I'm like it is because
Nike's making a lot of the accessories now, are they
accommodating Lebron James's weird hairline? Because part of me believes it. Yeah,
he's like players. He needs the head he needs the headband,

(48:36):
he needs the coverage because the plugs aren't working that
great anyway. My cat band, the big head bandage from
Big Headband, Big Headband. No one talks about it, Yeah,
except for the things. Just me and Joe Rogan right now,
I really have our eyes open this ship. But yeah,
there's something about it too. I just because I remember

(48:56):
when I was rocking on the head bands when I
had a healthier head hair in early two thousand's. They
were they were thin, they were thinner like Jason Terry
when he was rocking headband this. He'll be like, what
the fund is this? And he's bandage. Yeah, Jason Terry's
headbands were very thin and boogie cousins rocks and very
thin headbands. But yeah, it's almost like they stretched the
same amount of fabric out because it's like a very

(49:18):
thin but wide headband. Yeah. Well, for a while they
were rocking like the bandana, like was it It wasn't
Jimmy Butler wearing one? Yeah, they and then they made
him take it off. They were calling it something I forget,
like the karate headband with the not in the back,
like the tie back. Yeah, like it's your nadal on.
Yeah you know. So they are regulating headbands in the NBA,

(49:40):
just not the width. Yeah, but hey, look, you know,
I salute them. I salute the bald kings of the NBA. Yeah,
and Lebron looked a little like a step slow. Yeah,
look it's the first, it's the first, come on, come on,
look good though, Yeah, he looked good. Kauai is a
robot in Japan. These Kauai means like scary. Yeah, so

(50:03):
I think about that they knew what they were doing
when the names. Uh all right, let's check in with
Mangazi real quick. Cuba Gooding Jr. Has now been indicted
on another sexual missconduct charge. This is a third woman.
There's also this footage that recently, I think it's been

(50:23):
around for a while, but only recently made its way
to the mainstream. The mainstream have been just I don't know,
I don't know this clip. This is Cuba Gooding Jr.
At a club, gets on Mike and they're like, get
get that dude over here, Gooding. Yeah, everyone, why don't
you say something Cuba Gooding Junior? This is what he says,

(50:44):
hold on up here, hold on subbot, suck that paper?
Uh yeah, what in what context? What? Sir? Or? I
believe everything? I mean? Wow? What the I don't even

(51:06):
know what to say about that. It sounds like a
voicemail before rap song. Yeah one message PM. Yeah. Also,
Nellie also had to settle with an accuser of like
some sexual assault accuser in the UK too, So what

(51:28):
the fun is going anyways? Yeah, because Cuba getting Junior,
at first it was like this one like surveillance tape
that people were pointing to that like people were like,
oh god, yeah, he's getting weird and hands and then
multiple people have been coming out and then actually on
that Twitter thread that had that video, other women who
are like, I've been in a nightclub with Cuba getting Jr.

(51:48):
And he's a sexual assaulting trash, like he was squeezing
my butt and doing all kinds of weird ships saying
can I do a line off your butt? Yeahs anyway
snow dogs to that. Yeah, it seems like he's just hammered.
Like every time you see him. There's a video of him,
like a couple of years ago, interrupting as he's a
set where he like went on stage. One of the

(52:09):
use of for him was like, you're pretty funny, was
like giving him back on went up on stage. Yeah. Yeah,
he's just one of those dark drinkers where he's gone
the black box stops recording the flight information and you
might as well be Oceanic flight six thirteen. He's just
waking up in the morning like, Oh, I hope the

(52:31):
baby is okay. What have I done? Yeah, that's that's
what we gotta I'm sorry. You look like a fool
from lost. Um. All right, let's talk about our new
national monument. The Joker Stairs are now a tourist destination.
It's an actual location in the Bronx. Uh. It is

(52:54):
the scene from The Joker where he's dancing down the
steps after he has stopped taking his medication and is
now a good dancer. Um. And they play that Gary
Glitter and and then that song which is weird. Dude,
isn't he a childless? Yes? He is a child molest Wow,

(53:18):
that's cool. Uh. And yeah, people started taking note of
the stairs, like where it is, put it on Google Maps, uh,
designated it as a religious site on Google Maps. Uh.
And now it's basically a full fledged tourist attraction. Yeah.
The photos of their video clips I've seen, it's almost

(53:42):
like you can't actually achieve the thing you'd even want
by going there because there's so many people Like you'd
kind of want an un like a clear frame when
it's just you on the steps, but it's like seventy Yeah,
people are showing up at nine in the morning. Now,
that's really and it's weird, like when you hear people
like being interviewed or just like you know, it's just

(54:03):
someone is just so powerful about these steps. Man. Yeah,
I get being a fan of a movie. But it's
funny like when because on Jesus and Merrow Show Time Show,
they were like, dude, Like Merrow was saying, He's like,
how dare they take tourist photos on a place I
want smoked angel dust? Yeah, and Jesus like, I've seen
people get thrown down those fucking steps and now it's

(54:26):
like a full on tourist site. And anc spoke out
again against it, right, I believe. So she said it's
good that they're getting like attention to the Bronx and
like that that's cool, but that people should maybe be
careful and in that specific location. Uh, and that she
doesn't want it like fully crowded. But yeah, apparently that location.

(54:50):
During the actual filming of that scene, Jwakee Phoenix reported
that teenagers from a nearby apartment we're yelling fuck you Phoenix,
like that they knew who it was to Phoenix, Wow,

(55:13):
I mean you know, there you go, You're in the
Bronx and you're trying to dance all the steps, the
smoke from the nearby people in the buildings. Yeah, I
just I'm trying to think of any place from a
film I would be that excited to go to, like
truly because like there was something you can see the
reverence that people are treating those derk that those steps with.

(55:37):
And I'm trying to think of any if a film
has been like you know what, bro, we gotta fucking
go there. Right. It's also not like good or interesting choreography.
It's not like impact trash dancing. But yeah, I don't know,
Like what if you what's the like if you went
to the real Amityville, Amityville, Oh, Amity Beach, Yeah, Amity

(56:00):
Beat whatever it was from Jackson Martha's bingerd I've been there, man,
But is it called Amity Is that the real place?
Or they change in Amity Island is not a real islands? Yeah?
But which ye? Or maybe that weird SeaWorld from the
other Jaws that had the when the That would be dope.
I would love to see that, But I don't. I
don't think that place actually exists real Jurassic Park maybe

(56:23):
like the island from jas Park bar. Yeah, and it doesn't.
I don't think really exists, no, because they say it's
off the coast to Coasta, Rica, And I've asked many
people if it's a real place and I was laughed
at and yeah, they say, there's not really dinosaurs. I
was in Sacramento ones and accidentally saw the Blue House
from Lady Bird. I was like, I like screamed, yeah,
that's very did it feel did it feel religious? Yes?

(56:46):
But yeah, yeah, fantastic. Yeah you started speaking in tongues.
You're like, I was prop signed from up there? What
about the rocky steps, Jack, don't care? You don't care,
But that's just Philly to like, you're famil it's familiar, familiar,
and yeah, it's just too it's already And it's like saying,

(57:06):
would you be blown away by the Statue of Liberty
from Ghostbusters too? It's like no, that's and are we
using a Nintendo Control? But like the Art Museum stairs
in Philly are a pretty well known monument already. So yeah,
well I know, Anna, when you went there for that
podcast thing, you you pay proper respects up to stairs,
So somewhere, hey, somebody respects the Yeah. The only thing

(57:28):
I feel like places where I would feel emotional or
privated with sports sadly, Yeah, like what the first time
I went to Highbury. I don't know what that is. Okay,
well that's where Arsenal Football Club got it storied, thank you,
story to football and ground. That felt really good. But
that's the only thing. Like I was like, damn man,
like this is where it all happen. Yeah, this is it.

(57:50):
And once upon a time in Hollywood's really satisfying when
they do like the Neon signs herein arc Light. We
love it. We know. Ye what's the time in Hollywood
is actually a good one. They do a lot like
real world locations, but it's funny. I was even like
when they went to Casa Vega to get all funked up.
I'm like, I've been going to Casa so I don't know.
It's like, you know, it's all I guess it all depends. Yeah,

(58:11):
oh if I could, uh maybe go I don't know,
something from Starship Troopers. If that exists in real life,
I'll get excited for that. Yeah. There are some places
from the original Star Wars like those uh like like
supposed to be desert little like pod houses are real.
That would be dope to just happened upon in New Mexico.
I don't know, think Morocco or something, yeah, or Algeria,

(58:35):
I don't know. So Vulture actually sent a reporter out
to visit the stairs and they found a ton of
two Nie chorists, but a lot of them weren't even
fans of the movie. They were just like into the meme.
So it was just right, yeah damn, which suggests it
will probably go away pretty uh pretty soon. I mean, yeah, hey, look,

(58:58):
you know, if you're just trying to hop in on
the viral trend, do some good fucking do some good
parody shots, man, Because I saw a lot of people
doing like the weirdest, most awkward poses, trying to mimic joke.
I was like, okay, but this is I guess. It's
also like maybe this truly is like this one of
those manifestations of sort of worre societies come right where

(59:20):
it's there are people who don't even actually engage with
the original artwork that you know that drew people there
there there because of the social media likes and attention
it will garner them, and that's what the draws might
not even be an emotional attachment to the film. It's like, no,
I'm about to get like forty likes on this, so
It's also interesting because I often like reference movies I

(59:42):
realized I've never seen, but like that it's in the
lexicon where I hear people talk about, or I will
say it without knowing. I'm like referencing a larger scheme. Yeah,
like what I I constantly quote fight Club and I
don't realize it until like five months later. It's really
it's scared for five years? What do you mean? What

(01:00:03):
do you say? I will say, like like, weapons formed
against me will not prosper, because like that's what I've
heard people say, and they'll be like, oh, fight Club,
And then I'm like, oh god, it's because it's like
signifying a larger insult culture that I'm not aware of. Date,
weapon formed against me will not process. You find yourself

(01:00:26):
saying that it's like some hardcore ship. Yeah, what I
do is that blackout and I did sciss fights under Um.
That's pretty that's pretty dope. Oh other famous stairs though
where I went to college, The Exorcist stairs right there
and people that's a big tourist destination. Yeah, tell me

(01:00:47):
the point that a movie this year, stairs have been
resembling like class structures, so like in US when she
goes downstairs and in paras site similarly when they go
down the stairs, it's like a big theme and movies
right now. Yeah, that's all right, we've waked the people up,
you know. Yeah huh an, wait, that's that's from the Bible. Actually,

(01:01:07):
Isaiah seventeen, Wake the people up. No weapon that is
formed against the shall the most embarrassing thing. Actually actually
so good to me one of my fellow Christians sisters.
That's even worse. King James version. Yeah, I mean get
beat up one day you didn't like? Yeah, you know,
I love that other hot take from Fight Club. Shall

(01:01:29):
not kill No No, for God loved the world so
much that he gave his only gootten Son. I mean

Nick Wiger tweeted this, uh said, re upping Alvin gentry
story about meeting Buzz Aldrin from seven Seconds or Less.
Alvin Gentry is a NBA basketball coach, so the story

(01:03:26):
is a quote from Alvin Gentry. So it's a full moon,
beautiful night, says Gentry. And I'm trying to think of
something to say to this famous guy, and finally I say, Buzz,
damn you ever look up and see the moon and
think to yourself how people stare at it all the
time and write poems about it? And you walked on it?
You walked on it. And Buzz looks at me and
