Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of the
antem My Friends is trending in the wind. That one
courtesy of Vanadium Silver on the discord and years of
singing lesson for me, My name is Jack.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
That is Miles, Hello everybody.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
For you? He worked for five years, what trained himself
for five years?
Speaker 3 (00:30):
The goat like shit the goat?
Speaker 1 (00:34):
All right, so my goat is Michael Jordan's still, then
shall make them lebron.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
My goat the unborn child also known as a zygoat.
Then that's my goat.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
I hear you, man. It is Tuesday, March fourth.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Fucking activists and got posters of ygoats on their wall.
That one that one became Ronald Reagan.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Oh, that would actually be a good racket for selling bullshit.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
To sell life people, you get.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Random like sonograms sonograms and then sell them be like,
that's fucking Jordan right there. Do you want to trump
rookie card, the most Jordan rookie card possible?
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Oh, y'all talk about that flair eighty five rookie Nah
na na, no, this is the most expensive.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Jordan A little bit? Uh yeah, gross, look at his hands?
Can you tell? Get tell? Dude?
Speaker 1 (01:33):
All right, this is the episode where we tell you
what's trending, and I'll tell you what's trending the dang
stock market downward. And I am, for the first time
starting to have some doubts about this Trump guy.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
What are you the Wall Street Journal? I am all
of mainstream media, dude, the Was Street Journal. Last week
you're like, don't fucking do the tariffs, dickhead? Are you
seriously gonna fuck everything up? And then today like is
this guy fucking like every offense? Like this shit's dumb?
What are you doing?
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Man?
Speaker 3 (02:00):
We're the money paper and you're fucking up the money. So, yeah,
the tariffs are here hit. We're basically again I'm saying
we are.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Tariffs are coming.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
The TIFFs are coming the year I guess the United States.
We are hitting ourselves with twenty five percent tariffs on
certain goods from Mexico and Canada and as well as
twenty percent on goods from China. Again base China ourselves,
and we are the ones China. This doesn't you know?
This is what's really frustrating. You see a lot of
(02:29):
the politicians going They're like, well, obviously, we gotta we gotta,
we gotta tighten this trade deficit up a little bit.
And then I just wish one journalist would go, Okay,
can you explain how that tightening of the how that's
going to reflect on cheaper prices for the consumer, just
so they can understand how this this is actually a benefit.
No one fucking Oh okay, this is a trade represent
(02:49):
So again, this is sent like you said, Jack, markets
crashing prices on certain materials soaring. Like on Maria Bartiromo
show on Fox, she had a person had a Dodge
dealership and he was like, this Dodge ram eighty thousand
dollars normally. It just went up two hundred thousand dollars
today instantly because of the term. And I'm like, we're
just trying those yeah, son. So yeah, this has sent
(03:14):
basically our neighbors to the north and South, just having
them wondering are these stupid asses for real? Like all
the things we hear like from Trudeau, he's like.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Y'all, he's this is he's hurting to the American people
real quick.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I don't do this normally, but.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Let me address my constituents really quick. The American people,
Oh that it is so funny if you said that
shit and then he's like, yeah, you guys are doing
unfortunately he's doing this to you. You know, like we're
trying to be chill, but you know, if you fucking
push us around, we're we might be He's like, look,
Canadians may be polite and well mannered, but we do fight.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
We had some of the best snipers world War two.
You know, yeah, straight up. Okay, man, Hey.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
We won't forget Juno and sword Beach on D Day.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Man.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
But anyway, this is also like kind of one of
those things where there are Republicans from agricultural states that
are privately like you see a lot of anonymous quotes
from these Congress people from these are agricultural states who
are definitely worried because this will do damage. Like the
last time, there are these trade wars happening to farmers
specifically because you know, they have to export their crops
(04:17):
for money, and a lot of these retaliatory tariffs are
like zeroing in on these specific goods just to make
it as uncomfortable as possible. Speaker Mike Johnson, though, is
basically showing he's towing the line, and this is apparently
what everyone is supposed to think on the right of
these tariffs. Quote the America first agenda is to reset
those relationships with other countries. Huh, basically saying that his
(04:39):
intent wasn't to start a trade war or an adversarial thing. Quote,
this is to continue good relationships and trade policies. I
think this initiative will achieve that desired result. As the
President said, just have a little patience with this, let
it play out, see how it develops, and I think
at the end of the day, America is going to
be better off.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
False false doesn't seem false where things are headed like that.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
No.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
So we talked before about how Trump and like the tariffs,
like it is a blunt instrument that can get a
very specific return, like it can you can get a
very specific objective with a tariff. Sure, so that they can,
like I think in his first administration, he's like, let's do.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
This tariff, that tariff, this tariff, that tariff.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
And like the people his economic advisors were like, we'll
let you do the one and like it had an
effect that wasn't catastrophic.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
But now that there are no brit now it's just
all gas, no breaks.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
He is putting all the tariffs out and it like
it doesn't make sense to really anyone, Like, have you
seen anybody really make a case for it.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
I think the I don't know if we're going full
cynicism here. He's trying to tank the American economy.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Fully, that's the goal ends because of the gold.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
It could be the gold gold, what is it the
gold or what is it the crypto? You know what
I mean, whatever it is, I think it's also a
tool to weaken your adversaries who rely on the economy
or the stock market to derive their wealth from. And
you can kind of be like, watch me fuck it
all up. I don't know, but like to try and
game out the four dy chess here. I don't know.
(06:15):
The most simple thing is like it seems like he's
just trying to tank the fucking economy and this is
one way to do it. And again he needs pretext
for everything, So this time the flimsy ass pretext is
we've got to stop the flow of Fentanel into legal immigrants.
That's why we're doing this to try and reverse all
this and also the trade. He's like saying, it's a
myriad of things, but to go and then up end
(06:36):
relationships with our immediate neighbors to the north and south.
Just makes zero financial sense. And you know, you have
Republicans who privately are like this, I don't understand. I
think this is gonna fuck us all up. And then
other people who don't know what the fuck the like
economics are and they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we got
to show them. And by them, I mean us our
own consumers. So we'll see how this plays out. Because
(06:57):
Trump is addressing a joint session of Congress, some Democrats
will be there, some won't. I don't know why that
what the fucking point is, because you're just gonna they're
gonna make a fucking meal of you if you don't
stand up and clap when they're like and.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
There are families of Lacan Riley people that were killed
by immigrants, right, so so terrible, And if they're like
they're being like, this is some fucking puppetry show circus shit,
then they'll.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Be like, well they why don't they care about da
da dah.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
So some people are completely avoiding attending, but it's going
to be again, all the people that Trump is bringing
out for this address are again the families of like
Lake and Riley, the family of the guy who was
killed at the Trump rally where the assassination attempt happened.
And Mark Fogel, the guy that he just freed from Russia.
(07:44):
And then the Democrats are going to be bringing like
people who have just been laid off, which I think
is just as cynical.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
I'm like, what's the point to re traumatize them, to
be like, and no, they're gonna have to look at
these people. Don't care y'all are doing this same you're
using these people as props too, Like, do some real
shit or don't fucking go and legitimize this nonsense. But anyway,
we'll see tonight, folks. We will see tonight how that goes.
Alyssa Slotkin will be giving the rebuttal for Democrats, so
(08:13):
we will see exciting.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
All right, let's take it back to Main Street.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
We have a we have a report from young producer
Victor y PV about what the latest dating trend. It's
called flood lighting miles and it may be coming for
a romantic partner near you or it's.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
My millennials still out there, you know, on the on
the lookout for love, know the flood lighting when you
see this? Apparently I did not know what.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
I don't know what blood light.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
This sounds like being bad at dates, But we're in
an era where we must give a very succinct sort
of description or catch off phrase to these kinds of things.
So in this instance, it's called flood lighting, and.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
You're using vulnerability as a high intensity spotlight. I don't
really understand the spotlight part of that, but it involves
sharing a lot of personal details all at once. So
it's like, instead of love bombing, you are vulnerability bombing
the person. This is allegedly to test the waters, speed
(09:18):
up intimacy, or see if the other person can handle
these parts of you.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Yeah, this just seems like a bad strategy, but like,
maybe it works with a certain type of personality.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
Oh so it says. For example, say you meet someone
from a dating app and grab drinks a few days
after connecting. On the day, you begin to talk about
you childhood, sharing details about your parents' divorce and other traumas.
You then drain on about how this impacts you today, eg.
Makes you doubt love and loyalty, causes insecurities and dating,
et cetera. All the while you're closely reading the other
person's reactions determine whether they can handle you testing their
(09:51):
boundaries and how much they're willing to accept. This sounds
predatory and weird, like sure to be like boundaries pesculation tactics.
I just don't think I get. I think that your
people are sort of like people just won't accept me
for me. So maybe if I lead very intensely with
all of that and put all my cards on the
table at once, then I can see. But this sort
(10:13):
of like watching their every reaction to see how they respond.
That is not how you're going to get to know
somebody or anything like that. That's like being like you're
cooking food or some shit, and like before I give
you the whole meal, I'm gonna have you taste every
individual ingredient on its own before I've cooked it or
combined it.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah, taste this Google like job interview thing where they
like give you a terrifying, difficult question and see if
you freak out or not. I will see what this
motherfucker's made, which is the weird and predatory as like
a a hiring practice let alone, is like a you know,
dating practice. Yeah, Hey, if you can't handle me at
(10:50):
my worst, you're never going to be able to handle
me at my best, because I'm really like pretty awful
at my best.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Also like the process of like falling in love with
some you like them, and then you like them enough
that as you learn more about them, you can put
all the pieces together and be like, oh, okay, I
still like accept and love this person for who they are,
rather than if I showed up to my data said, yo, bro,
I might have an issue with cannabis. You know, I
have parental issues. I'm a perfectionist who will always criticize
(11:18):
everything you or I do to and then just do I.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Think a diaper on my back right now because of
how much I sweat?
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Oh wait, wait, hold on you you have a diaper
on your back because of how much you sweat.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Sorry, I was told that this was flood lighting. I'm
trying to just like be really vulnerable with you. I
sweat a lot. Now it's actually the diaper is no
longer sufficient because you stopped me there and now it's
turning out weird.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Do you have an extra diaper? Fest or no? How
many diapers do you have on you right now? Bubble gum?
Bubble gum in a dish? How many diapers do you
have on you right now? Let's take a quick break.
We'll be ready back and we're back. We're back and r.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
FK, what's that guy up to sending some mixed signals
about uh, straightforward medicine.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Despite floodlighting us over the many years, letting us know
what where what his foibles?
Speaker 2 (12:28):
What is he does? He is a big flood lighter.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
He's just like, yeah, perfect, here is a large list
of pedophiles that I've been associated with with.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
I air humped a dog corpse, you know, a few times.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
The original the o G floodlighter and does seem to
work bafflingly well for him. So he there's a measles
outbreak in Texas and terrifying the child just out of
me for the first time since he said about that.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
You know, people die, children die.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
So he wrote this op ed on Fox's website, and
in one part of it he said things like vaccines
not only protect individual children from measles, but also contribute
to community immunity, protecting those who are unable to be
vaccinated due to medical reasons, which is kind of a
big Endorse like, that's the most endorsee he's ever gotten
(13:27):
around a vaccine. He he does still acknowledge, like, you know,
some people can't be vaccinated and they seem to be fine,
But he does say the decision to vaccinate is.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
A personal one.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah. He also elsewhere talks about how vitamins are a
good way to treat measles.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
But which one, please, so I can buy it? Which
one do I can I get instead of a vaccine?
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Studies have found that vitamin a can dramatically reduce measles mortality.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Okay? Does he also tell the part about how you
can cause like liver damage?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Noh?
Speaker 3 (14:05):
Okay, okay, so but okay, so based on what I'm
seeing the dick that you've positioned these two things to say,
vitamin a is basically like a vaccine though too right, Yeah, buttamin.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
A is fine?
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Like so okay, measles, it's good not to have measles.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Measles bad if you.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Want to personally make the personal decision to get vaccinatum
for some fucking reason because you're weird and sick and
want Bill Gates fucking chips inside of you. You sick
freaking If you want to do that, uh huh.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Great If you're not that type.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
If you don't make that personal choice for your personal
self maybe your free family.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Ed you're a freethinker.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Uh, you know, you're just kind of you do your
own research because.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
You're Harriet Tubmart the research.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
You're not a sheep. Maybe you're a wolf, you know,
like people like me.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Then in that case, uh, it has been showed the
vitamin A instead of vaccines or you know, if you
do get measles, don't trip. It's like the Space Program.
If an asteroid's coming, we gotcha over here at Big
vitamin A. Unfortunately, according to doctors, specifically doctor Sue Presley,
(15:21):
the president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, in fact,
relying on vitamin A instead of the vaccine is not
only dangerous and ineffective, but.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
It puts children at serious risk.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Huh huh, but that's not that's not what health Man
just said.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
He's been on this vitamin a shit since twenty nineteen,
when he spoke at an event hosted by Texans for
Vaccine Choice and was speaking about a measles outbreak.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
At that time.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Yeah, and said that while doctors claimed that the outbreak
was caused by parents refusing to vaccinate their children, he
said that measles cases fell both before the vaccine was introduced.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
That's what they won't tell you why, because the.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Thing that cured measles was nutrition and clean water, not
the vaccine.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
All right, all right, all right, cool cool? Yeah. I
mean this, this op ed has been like the perfect
piece of misinformation because depending on what side of the
political spectrum you're on, you're going to read into it.
Like some headlines were saying from this op ed, they
just glombed onto the part where he said the MMR
(16:31):
vaccine is actually safe or whatever, which goes against everything
he's been saying for the last fucking forever about the
MMR vaccine. And then you have the parties like but
it's a personal choice. So I see headlines that were like, Yo,
he's all in on vaccines. They're effective, Like you saw
headlines and then if you read he's like, but they're
a personal choice, and other ones were being like, yeah,
(16:52):
he says vite them in a just as good So yeah,
it was interesting to see how this one op ed
was somehow covered him seeing the light yeah, and others
were just like, no, bro, he's just fun.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Saying both things, and like so you get the heat
off your back. But you also are signaling to the
people who you know, actually follow and listen to you
like you're you know, we've been right all along, don't
wear I'm saying the vitamin A shit.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
So uh.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Also in this new world, a Texas official just had
to call a press conference. This is the chief health
officer for the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and
had to urge people not to throw measles parties. Apparently
they noticed that some people plan to hold measles parties
on social media.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
And it's like the chicken pox parties from the eighties. Yeah,
eighties and nineties.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
I'm just singing that because that's when I went to.
It wasn't even it's fun. I didn't even go to a
chicken pox part I just got motherfucking chicken pox at
a birthday party.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Yeah, well you did think you might not know the
actual details of that party month. Yeah did you look
at the Do you have the invitations for that party
in front of you?
Speaker 3 (18:07):
Yeah, just say, come make sure your kid gets chicken pox,
but we'll have a party so they don't realize. Chicken
pox at a Flying Lotus show at twenty six years old.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
All right, so yeah, don't do that.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
But I have a thing that we need to uh say, now,
in a world where vitamins are where measles is not
a big concern for the head health guy in the nation,
and it could be treated with vitamin A.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Is vitamin A the sun one. There's that vitamin D.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
That's the all right, there's a great New York magazine
article that I wanted to shout out real quick. That
is the most sycophantic things Republicans have done so far
in this Like this is not overall. This is just
since he's been in the second.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Time for the last three weeks.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Yeah, they've On February fourteen, they introduced a bill to
make Donald Trump's birthday a federal holiday, saying his impact
on the nation is undeniable. Just as George Washington's birthday
is codified as a federal holiday. This bill will add
Trump's birthday to this list, recognizing him as the founder
of Americans Golden Age right before the economy fell off
(19:21):
a fucking cliff. A bill to put Trump on Mount Rushmore.
That's that's for real. Abible to change the name of
Greenland to Red, White and Blueland. A resolution to allow
Trump to serve a third term. I mean that shit's
just going to happen. A pair of bills to put
Trump on the one hundred dollars bill, and then a
(19:44):
US attorney that calls himself Trump's lawyer is another one.
President Trump's lawyer is what he calls himself, Ed Martin.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Oh right, right, who's You're like, you're fucking working for
the Department of Justice. That's cool, I'm Trump's. The other thing, though, too,
is recently they're talking about renaming Dulles Airport after Trump too.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
After that's it's another one. Just such a wild on
rush of bullshit.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
This is just typical dear leader shit, you know what
I mean? This is Yeah, this is no different than
any other country where they're like people have to fawn
over the figurehead to curry favor and be.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Like, yes, my lord please, I want to put you on.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
A bill that doesn't need to fucking exist. A two
hundred and fifty dollars bill for who So you go
buy a dozen eggs?
Speaker 2 (20:28):
Is that what it is? A two hundred and fifty
dollars Yeah, there's.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Two hundred fifty dollars bill they're talking about that's amazing.
One of them has the mugshot as the fucking face
like all these Bill mock ups. It's absolutely bullshet bullsheet night.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
And finally, we do have an update because we had
mentioned that we were a little suspicious of the number
that kept getting quoted during the break number.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
Wait, was that something Conan said or who was saying it?
Speaker 1 (20:58):
He was saying that a billion people watched, But it
wasn't like a joke that it' psych Not a billion
people are watching it, and people covered it as being
serious in the mainstream media.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
So that's a Harvard Lampoon humor, dude.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Right, so very sophisticated, very dry, that dry rang Poon humor.
This is a thing that people have been saying for
a long time. The ratings came back. The Oscars drew
eighteen million viewers across ABC and Hulu, which is seven
percent down from last year.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
That's about what I would have guessed based.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
On the movies that were nominated, like last year was
an all time or a high like since before the pandemic,
because the two movies that were most likely to win
Best Picture were movies that a lot of people saw
in Oppenheimer and Barbie, and this year was like, you know,
small arty movies, but yeah, so down down seven percent
(21:53):
from last year. People are just like, what the fuck
what happened Cone? I guess people don't like Cone or something.
It was like, no, the movies are just not big.
It was not a year where like there were a
lot of high performing movies that made Sense's Best Picture nominees.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
And we're just not that into celebrity worship as we
used to be. That's really the thing. We just don't
We're not as interested in celebrating these people and being like,
whoa what are they wearing?
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Like for yourself, Miles, I have that selfie that Ellen
DeGeneres took tattooed on my back.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
That's what that is. Yeah, man, it's a little blurry.
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
I would say it looks really infected.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
It's so I started it as a watercolor of that
and then you know, showed that to the person and
then kept updating it as they were doing the tattoo.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
And it just has not It's not gone great, it's
not gone badly, but yeah, they are having to take
chunks in my back out.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
God, is it too late to make it Nixon's face.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Is that what you think? It looks like? Maybe I
could I feel like Swartz things around.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, you can be like Roger Stone, but yeah, I
don't know, like Deadline blamed Hulu. Uh, I just think, yeah,
but fewer people fewer and fewer people watch anything on
TV anymore, like feer and fewer people are into celebrity
worship these days. But our writer JM did look into
where the billion people all over the world claim came from,
(23:23):
and uh, it's from a nineteen eighty five Associated Press
story which contained the billion viewer claim without any attribution.
And that's where it just still gets excited, like it's.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
Just the free internet lies from the eighties, pre internet
lie that is like convenient for the purposes of attracting advertisers,
you know, and there and therefore you just.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Got that is so funny, dude, This is some This
is a This is sales speak from someone in a
sale in this in a sales position at ABC clearly
being like, yeah, we get a billion viewers. Man, your
product in front of a billions, They're going to be
wild to get you to get this thing.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
I got a billion people?
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Oh really? Yeah, dude, fucking India, fucking euro Euro Disney,

Speaker 1 (24:15):
Yeah, do you know the story of like Kennedy spoke
in Berlin and said, I bin I and Berliner and
everybody because it meant he's a jelly donut that comes
from a spy novel that like came out in nineteen
eighty one. I think like they just made that up
and everybody was like that, like that's the first place
(24:37):
that appeared, like years.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
After part of the eighties, dude, like that was the
best part of the eighties. Like we could all just
a fucking group lie and how that be reality?
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Well, now that the Internet does that for us, they
just the Internet is a like large fan fiction, you know,
in real time that everybody for reality, you have like
going on on one side, and that is happening for
everybody who wants to believe anything on any side.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Great. I love that for me though.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I Mean even the oscars were like trying to back
down from the lie. They were like, it's actually more
like I don't know, several hundred million viewers globally.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
Oh yeah, yeah, because you go go to go to
anywhere that isn't the United States. You go to any
non English speaking country right now and be like, did
you guys catch the oscars?
Speaker 2 (25:29):
They're like, what the fuck are you talking about?
Speaker 3 (25:32):
You just I don't know if you know this. You
just cursed at me, just so you know.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Yeah, I mean many of the big international markets, like,
they have their own film industries. Nah.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Also in many.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
Of these places, the ceremony airs in the middle of
the night, and a lot of people just don't give
a shit because yeah, they have their own film industry,
their own movies, their own award shows.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
Too busy trying to survive, you know, just see usual.

singing lesson for me, My name is Jack.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
That is Miles, Hello everybody.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
For you? He worked for five years, what trained himself
for five years?
Speaker 3 (00:30):
The goat like shit the goat?
Speaker 1 (00:34):
All right, so my goat is Michael Jordan's still, then
shall make them lebron.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
My goat the unborn child also known as a zygoat.
Then that's my goat.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
I hear you, man. It is Tuesday, March fourth.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Fucking activists and got posters of ygoats on their wall.
That one that one became Ronald Reagan.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Oh, that would actually be a good racket for selling bullshit.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
To sell life people, you get.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Random like sonograms sonograms and then sell them be like,
that's fucking Jordan right there. Do you want to trump
rookie card, the most Jordan rookie card possible?
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Oh, y'all talk about that flair eighty five rookie Nah
na na, no, this is the most expensive.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Jordan A little bit? Uh yeah, gross, look at his hands?
Can you tell? Get tell? Dude?
Speaker 1 (01:33):
All right, this is the episode where we tell you
what's trending, and I'll tell you what's trending the dang
stock market downward. And I am, for the first time
starting to have some doubts about this Trump guy.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
What are you the Wall Street Journal? I am all
of mainstream media, dude, the Was Street Journal. Last week
you're like, don't fucking do the tariffs, dickhead? Are you
seriously gonna fuck everything up? And then today like is
this guy fucking like every offense? Like this shit's dumb?
What are you doing?
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Man?
Speaker 3 (02:00):
We're the money paper and you're fucking up the money. So, yeah,
the tariffs are here hit. We're basically again I'm saying
we are.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Tariffs are coming.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
The TIFFs are coming the year I guess the United States.
We are hitting ourselves with twenty five percent tariffs on
certain goods from Mexico and Canada and as well as
twenty percent on goods from China. Again base China ourselves,
and we are the ones China. This doesn't you know?
This is what's really frustrating. You see a lot of
(02:29):
the politicians going They're like, well, obviously, we gotta we gotta,
we gotta tighten this trade deficit up a little bit.
And then I just wish one journalist would go, Okay,
can you explain how that tightening of the how that's
going to reflect on cheaper prices for the consumer, just
so they can understand how this this is actually a benefit.
No one fucking Oh okay, this is a trade represent
(02:49):
So again, this is sent like you said, Jack, markets
crashing prices on certain materials soaring. Like on Maria Bartiromo
show on Fox, she had a person had a Dodge
dealership and he was like, this Dodge ram eighty thousand
dollars normally. It just went up two hundred thousand dollars
today instantly because of the term. And I'm like, we're
just trying those yeah, son. So yeah, this has sent
(03:14):
basically our neighbors to the north and South, just having
them wondering are these stupid asses for real? Like all
the things we hear like from Trudeau, he's like.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Y'all, he's this is he's hurting to the American people
real quick.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I don't do this normally, but.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Let me address my constituents really quick. The American people,
Oh that it is so funny if you said that
shit and then he's like, yeah, you guys are doing
unfortunately he's doing this to you. You know, like we're
trying to be chill, but you know, if you fucking
push us around, we're we might be He's like, look,
Canadians may be polite and well mannered, but we do fight.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
We had some of the best snipers world War two.
You know, yeah, straight up. Okay, man, Hey.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
We won't forget Juno and sword Beach on D Day.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Man.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
But anyway, this is also like kind of one of
those things where there are Republicans from agricultural states that
are privately like you see a lot of anonymous quotes
from these Congress people from these are agricultural states who
are definitely worried because this will do damage. Like the
last time, there are these trade wars happening to farmers
specifically because you know, they have to export their crops
(04:17):
for money, and a lot of these retaliatory tariffs are
like zeroing in on these specific goods just to make
it as uncomfortable as possible. Speaker Mike Johnson, though, is
basically showing he's towing the line, and this is apparently
what everyone is supposed to think on the right of
these tariffs. Quote the America first agenda is to reset
those relationships with other countries. Huh, basically saying that his
(04:39):
intent wasn't to start a trade war or an adversarial thing. Quote,
this is to continue good relationships and trade policies. I
think this initiative will achieve that desired result. As the
President said, just have a little patience with this, let
it play out, see how it develops, and I think
at the end of the day, America is going to
be better off.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
False false doesn't seem false where things are headed like that.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
No.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
So we talked before about how Trump and like the tariffs,
like it is a blunt instrument that can get a
very specific return, like it can you can get a
very specific objective with a tariff. Sure, so that they can,
like I think in his first administration, he's like, let's do.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
This tariff, that tariff, this tariff, that tariff.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
And like the people his economic advisors were like, we'll
let you do the one and like it had an
effect that wasn't catastrophic.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
But now that there are no brit now it's just
all gas, no breaks.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
He is putting all the tariffs out and it like
it doesn't make sense to really anyone, Like, have you
seen anybody really make a case for it.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
I think the I don't know if we're going full
cynicism here. He's trying to tank the American economy.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Fully, that's the goal ends because of the gold.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
It could be the gold gold, what is it the
gold or what is it the crypto? You know what
I mean, whatever it is, I think it's also a
tool to weaken your adversaries who rely on the economy
or the stock market to derive their wealth from. And
you can kind of be like, watch me fuck it
all up. I don't know, but like to try and
game out the four dy chess here. I don't know.
(06:15):
The most simple thing is like it seems like he's
just trying to tank the fucking economy and this is
one way to do it. And again he needs pretext
for everything, So this time the flimsy ass pretext is
we've got to stop the flow of Fentanel into legal immigrants.
That's why we're doing this to try and reverse all
this and also the trade. He's like saying, it's a
myriad of things, but to go and then up end
(06:36):
relationships with our immediate neighbors to the north and south.
Just makes zero financial sense. And you know, you have
Republicans who privately are like this, I don't understand. I
think this is gonna fuck us all up. And then
other people who don't know what the fuck the like
economics are and they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we got
to show them. And by them, I mean us our
own consumers. So we'll see how this plays out. Because
(06:57):
Trump is addressing a joint session of Congress, some Democrats
will be there, some won't. I don't know why that
what the fucking point is, because you're just gonna they're
gonna make a fucking meal of you if you don't
stand up and clap when they're like and.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
There are families of Lacan Riley people that were killed
by immigrants, right, so so terrible, And if they're like
they're being like, this is some fucking puppetry show circus shit,
then they'll.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Be like, well they why don't they care about da
da dah.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
So some people are completely avoiding attending, but it's going
to be again, all the people that Trump is bringing
out for this address are again the families of like
Lake and Riley, the family of the guy who was
killed at the Trump rally where the assassination attempt happened.
And Mark Fogel, the guy that he just freed from Russia.
(07:44):
And then the Democrats are going to be bringing like
people who have just been laid off, which I think
is just as cynical.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
I'm like, what's the point to re traumatize them, to
be like, and no, they're gonna have to look at
these people. Don't care y'all are doing this same you're
using these people as props too, Like, do some real
shit or don't fucking go and legitimize this nonsense. But anyway,
we'll see tonight, folks. We will see tonight how that goes.
Alyssa Slotkin will be giving the rebuttal for Democrats, so
(08:13):
we will see exciting.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
All right, let's take it back to Main Street.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
We have a we have a report from young producer
Victor y PV about what the latest dating trend. It's
called flood lighting miles and it may be coming for
a romantic partner near you or it's.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
My millennials still out there, you know, on the on
the lookout for love, know the flood lighting when you
see this? Apparently I did not know what.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
I don't know what blood light.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
This sounds like being bad at dates, But we're in
an era where we must give a very succinct sort
of description or catch off phrase to these kinds of things.
So in this instance, it's called flood lighting, and.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
You're using vulnerability as a high intensity spotlight. I don't
really understand the spotlight part of that, but it involves
sharing a lot of personal details all at once. So
it's like, instead of love bombing, you are vulnerability bombing
the person. This is allegedly to test the waters, speed
(09:18):
up intimacy, or see if the other person can handle
these parts of you.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Yeah, this just seems like a bad strategy, but like,
maybe it works with a certain type of personality.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
Oh so it says. For example, say you meet someone
from a dating app and grab drinks a few days
after connecting. On the day, you begin to talk about
you childhood, sharing details about your parents' divorce and other traumas.
You then drain on about how this impacts you today, eg.
Makes you doubt love and loyalty, causes insecurities and dating,
et cetera. All the while you're closely reading the other
person's reactions determine whether they can handle you testing their
(09:51):
boundaries and how much they're willing to accept. This sounds
predatory and weird, like sure to be like boundaries pesculation tactics.
I just don't think I get. I think that your
people are sort of like people just won't accept me
for me. So maybe if I lead very intensely with
all of that and put all my cards on the
table at once, then I can see. But this sort
(10:13):
of like watching their every reaction to see how they respond.
That is not how you're going to get to know
somebody or anything like that. That's like being like you're
cooking food or some shit, and like before I give
you the whole meal, I'm gonna have you taste every
individual ingredient on its own before I've cooked it or
combined it.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah, taste this Google like job interview thing where they
like give you a terrifying, difficult question and see if
you freak out or not. I will see what this
motherfucker's made, which is the weird and predatory as like
a a hiring practice let alone, is like a you know,
dating practice. Yeah, Hey, if you can't handle me at
(10:50):
my worst, you're never going to be able to handle
me at my best, because I'm really like pretty awful
at my best.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Also like the process of like falling in love with
some you like them, and then you like them enough
that as you learn more about them, you can put
all the pieces together and be like, oh, okay, I
still like accept and love this person for who they are,
rather than if I showed up to my data said, yo, bro,
I might have an issue with cannabis. You know, I
have parental issues. I'm a perfectionist who will always criticize
(11:18):
everything you or I do to and then just do I.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Think a diaper on my back right now because of
how much I sweat?
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Oh wait, wait, hold on you you have a diaper
on your back because of how much you sweat.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Sorry, I was told that this was flood lighting. I'm
trying to just like be really vulnerable with you. I
sweat a lot. Now it's actually the diaper is no
longer sufficient because you stopped me there and now it's
turning out weird.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Do you have an extra diaper? Fest or no? How
many diapers do you have on you right now? Bubble gum?
Bubble gum in a dish? How many diapers do you
have on you right now? Let's take a quick break.
We'll be ready back and we're back. We're back and r.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
FK, what's that guy up to sending some mixed signals
about uh, straightforward medicine.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Despite floodlighting us over the many years, letting us know
what where what his foibles?
Speaker 2 (12:28):
What is he does? He is a big flood lighter.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
He's just like, yeah, perfect, here is a large list
of pedophiles that I've been associated with with.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
I air humped a dog corpse, you know, a few times.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
The original the o G floodlighter and does seem to
work bafflingly well for him. So he there's a measles
outbreak in Texas and terrifying the child just out of
me for the first time since he said about that.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
You know, people die, children die.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
So he wrote this op ed on Fox's website, and
in one part of it he said things like vaccines
not only protect individual children from measles, but also contribute
to community immunity, protecting those who are unable to be
vaccinated due to medical reasons, which is kind of a
big Endorse like, that's the most endorsee he's ever gotten
(13:27):
around a vaccine. He he does still acknowledge, like, you know,
some people can't be vaccinated and they seem to be fine,
But he does say the decision to vaccinate is.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
A personal one.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah. He also elsewhere talks about how vitamins are a
good way to treat measles.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
But which one, please, so I can buy it? Which
one do I can I get instead of a vaccine?
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Studies have found that vitamin a can dramatically reduce measles mortality.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Okay? Does he also tell the part about how you
can cause like liver damage?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Noh?
Speaker 3 (14:05):
Okay, okay, so but okay, so based on what I'm
seeing the dick that you've positioned these two things to say,
vitamin a is basically like a vaccine though too right, Yeah, buttamin.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
A is fine?
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Like so okay, measles, it's good not to have measles.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Measles bad if you.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Want to personally make the personal decision to get vaccinatum
for some fucking reason because you're weird and sick and
want Bill Gates fucking chips inside of you. You sick
freaking If you want to do that, uh huh.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Great If you're not that type.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
If you don't make that personal choice for your personal
self maybe your free family.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Ed you're a freethinker.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Uh, you know, you're just kind of you do your
own research because.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
You're Harriet Tubmart the research.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
You're not a sheep. Maybe you're a wolf, you know,
like people like me.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Then in that case, uh, it has been showed the
vitamin A instead of vaccines or you know, if you
do get measles, don't trip. It's like the Space Program.
If an asteroid's coming, we gotcha over here at Big
vitamin A. Unfortunately, according to doctors, specifically doctor Sue Presley,
(15:21):
the president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, in fact,
relying on vitamin A instead of the vaccine is not
only dangerous and ineffective, but.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
It puts children at serious risk.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Huh huh, but that's not that's not what health Man
just said.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
He's been on this vitamin a shit since twenty nineteen,
when he spoke at an event hosted by Texans for
Vaccine Choice and was speaking about a measles outbreak.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
At that time.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Yeah, and said that while doctors claimed that the outbreak
was caused by parents refusing to vaccinate their children, he
said that measles cases fell both before the vaccine was introduced.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
That's what they won't tell you why, because the.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Thing that cured measles was nutrition and clean water, not
the vaccine.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
All right, all right, all right, cool cool? Yeah. I
mean this, this op ed has been like the perfect
piece of misinformation because depending on what side of the
political spectrum you're on, you're going to read into it.
Like some headlines were saying from this op ed, they
just glombed onto the part where he said the MMR
(16:31):
vaccine is actually safe or whatever, which goes against everything
he's been saying for the last fucking forever about the
MMR vaccine. And then you have the parties like but
it's a personal choice. So I see headlines that were like, Yo,
he's all in on vaccines. They're effective, Like you saw
headlines and then if you read he's like, but they're
a personal choice, and other ones were being like, yeah,
(16:52):
he says vite them in a just as good So yeah,
it was interesting to see how this one op ed
was somehow covered him seeing the light yeah, and others
were just like, no, bro, he's just fun.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Saying both things, and like so you get the heat
off your back. But you also are signaling to the
people who you know, actually follow and listen to you
like you're you know, we've been right all along, don't
wear I'm saying the vitamin A shit.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
So uh.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Also in this new world, a Texas official just had
to call a press conference. This is the chief health
officer for the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and
had to urge people not to throw measles parties. Apparently
they noticed that some people plan to hold measles parties
on social media.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
And it's like the chicken pox parties from the eighties. Yeah,
eighties and nineties.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
I'm just singing that because that's when I went to.
It wasn't even it's fun. I didn't even go to a
chicken pox part I just got motherfucking chicken pox at
a birthday party.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Yeah, well you did think you might not know the
actual details of that party month. Yeah did you look
at the Do you have the invitations for that party
in front of you?
Speaker 3 (18:07):
Yeah, just say, come make sure your kid gets chicken pox,
but we'll have a party so they don't realize. Chicken
pox at a Flying Lotus show at twenty six years old.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
All right, so yeah, don't do that.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
But I have a thing that we need to uh say, now,
in a world where vitamins are where measles is not
a big concern for the head health guy in the nation,
and it could be treated with vitamin A.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Is vitamin A the sun one. There's that vitamin D.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
That's the all right, there's a great New York magazine
article that I wanted to shout out real quick. That
is the most sycophantic things Republicans have done so far
in this Like this is not overall. This is just
since he's been in the second.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Time for the last three weeks.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Yeah, they've On February fourteen, they introduced a bill to
make Donald Trump's birthday a federal holiday, saying his impact
on the nation is undeniable. Just as George Washington's birthday
is codified as a federal holiday. This bill will add
Trump's birthday to this list, recognizing him as the founder
of Americans Golden Age right before the economy fell off
(19:21):
a fucking cliff. A bill to put Trump on Mount Rushmore.
That's that's for real. Abible to change the name of
Greenland to Red, White and Blueland. A resolution to allow
Trump to serve a third term. I mean that shit's
just going to happen. A pair of bills to put
Trump on the one hundred dollars bill, and then a
(19:44):
US attorney that calls himself Trump's lawyer is another one.
President Trump's lawyer is what he calls himself, Ed Martin.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Oh right, right, who's You're like, you're fucking working for
the Department of Justice. That's cool, I'm Trump's. The other thing, though, too,
is recently they're talking about renaming Dulles Airport after Trump too.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
After that's it's another one. Just such a wild on
rush of bullshit.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
This is just typical dear leader shit, you know what
I mean? This is Yeah, this is no different than
any other country where they're like people have to fawn
over the figurehead to curry favor and be.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Like, yes, my lord please, I want to put you on.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
A bill that doesn't need to fucking exist. A two
hundred and fifty dollars bill for who So you go
buy a dozen eggs?
Speaker 2 (20:28):
Is that what it is? A two hundred and fifty
dollars Yeah, there's.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Two hundred fifty dollars bill they're talking about that's amazing.
One of them has the mugshot as the fucking face
like all these Bill mock ups. It's absolutely bullshet bullsheet night.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
And finally, we do have an update because we had
mentioned that we were a little suspicious of the number
that kept getting quoted during the break number.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
Wait, was that something Conan said or who was saying it?
Speaker 1 (20:58):
He was saying that a billion people watched, But it
wasn't like a joke that it' psych Not a billion
people are watching it, and people covered it as being
serious in the mainstream media.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
So that's a Harvard Lampoon humor, dude.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Right, so very sophisticated, very dry, that dry rang Poon humor.
This is a thing that people have been saying for
a long time. The ratings came back. The Oscars drew
eighteen million viewers across ABC and Hulu, which is seven
percent down from last year.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
That's about what I would have guessed based.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
On the movies that were nominated, like last year was
an all time or a high like since before the pandemic,
because the two movies that were most likely to win
Best Picture were movies that a lot of people saw
in Oppenheimer and Barbie, and this year was like, you know,
small arty movies, but yeah, so down down seven percent
(21:53):
from last year. People are just like, what the fuck
what happened Cone? I guess people don't like Cone or something.
It was like, no, the movies are just not big.
It was not a year where like there were a
lot of high performing movies that made Sense's Best Picture nominees.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
And we're just not that into celebrity worship as we
used to be. That's really the thing. We just don't
We're not as interested in celebrating these people and being like,
whoa what are they wearing?
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Like for yourself, Miles, I have that selfie that Ellen
DeGeneres took tattooed on my back.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
That's what that is. Yeah, man, it's a little blurry.
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
I would say it looks really infected.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
It's so I started it as a watercolor of that
and then you know, showed that to the person and
then kept updating it as they were doing the tattoo.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
And it just has not It's not gone great, it's
not gone badly, but yeah, they are having to take
chunks in my back out.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
God, is it too late to make it Nixon's face.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Is that what you think? It looks like? Maybe I
could I feel like Swartz things around.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, you can be like Roger Stone, but yeah, I
don't know, like Deadline blamed Hulu. Uh, I just think, yeah,
but fewer people fewer and fewer people watch anything on
TV anymore, like feer and fewer people are into celebrity
worship these days. But our writer JM did look into
where the billion people all over the world claim came from,
(23:23):
and uh, it's from a nineteen eighty five Associated Press
story which contained the billion viewer claim without any attribution.
And that's where it just still gets excited, like it's.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
Just the free internet lies from the eighties, pre internet
lie that is like convenient for the purposes of attracting advertisers,
you know, and there and therefore you just.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Got that is so funny, dude, This is some This
is a This is sales speak from someone in a
sale in this in a sales position at ABC clearly
being like, yeah, we get a billion viewers. Man, your

wild to get you to get this thing.

Speaker 3 (24:05):
Oh really? Yeah, dude, fucking India, fucking euro Euro Disney,
fucking everywhere. Dude, they're fucking they fucking love it man
one billion.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Yeah, do you know the story of like Kennedy spoke
in Berlin and said, I bin I and Berliner and
everybody because it meant he's a jelly donut that comes
from a spy novel that like came out in nineteen
eighty one. I think like they just made that up
and everybody was like that, like that's the first place
(24:37):
that appeared, like years.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
After part of the eighties, dude, like that was the
best part of the eighties. Like we could all just
a fucking group lie and how that be reality?
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Well, now that the Internet does that for us, they
just the Internet is a like large fan fiction, you know,
in real time that everybody for reality, you have like
going on on one side, and that is happening for
everybody who wants to believe anything on any side.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Great. I love that for me though.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I Mean even the oscars were like trying to back
down from the lie. They were like, it's actually more
like I don't know, several hundred million viewers globally.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
Oh yeah, yeah, because you go go to go to
anywhere that isn't the United States. You go to any
non English speaking country right now and be like, did
you guys catch the oscars?

Speaker 3 (25:32):
You just I don't know if you know this. You
just cursed at me, just so you know.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Yeah, I mean many of the big international markets, like,
they have their own film industries. Nah.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Also in many.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
Of these places, the ceremony airs in the middle of
the night, and a lot of people just don't give
a shit because yeah, they have their own film industry,
their own movies, their own award shows.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
Too busy trying to survive, you know, just see usual.
Speaker 1 (26:01):

a good job. And shout out Anora.
