same adrenaline rush from childhood into adulthood, like in terms of.

Just straight up kid card games.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Ah, when you do the like and reverse and pick

of these dang cards.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
You have three cards up, I have ten? No way

That's that real ship. Because you know why, I think
as adults would make they would I would cry when
they would do that ship to me that like I
was forged in those fires that now like when I
(02:03):
do it, like yeah, like younger family members, bro, I'm
a fuck you. All the adults, especially on my dad's side,
there was no mercy for children in card games. Like
they're like, well, we can go easy on them. They're
like yeah, no, they were. It was like they were like,
you know, my grandmother Michael Jordan's ship. She's like, what's up, Hope,

Speaker 3 (02:46):
Hello the Internet and welcome to this week trend edition
of Guys. Yeah, production by Heart Radio. It's the podcast
where we take deep to have into American share consciousness.
And this is the episode where we tell you what
wasding over the weekend. My name is, of course Jack,
and that over there, well, that of course is my
co host, mister Miles.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yeah, nitrous oxide veteran. Wanting to your kids out really.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Quick by telling them how to do it by you're
doing it wrong.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Get a big ass balloon. Stop hitting it from the can.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
It's more fun with the balloon, more fish.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Anyway. Yeah, what a weekend?
Speaker 3 (03:29):
What a weekend?
Speaker 1 (03:30):
I'm forty years old and one week old now, I
like to think of it like that.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
I'm just going to start doing this every week.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
I'm forty years.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
And two weeks now.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Correct.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Well, this is the episode where we tell you, guys,
what is trending, what happened over the weekend. We also
get to know you a little better by telling you
what is something we think is underrated? What is something
we think is overrated? Miles, you want to tell them
something you think is under over dealers choice, what do
you want to start with?
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Let's do under rated and I think the youth are
underrating how terrible doing.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Nitrous oxide is for you.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Yeah, on Friday, right, I was like looking at Twitter
and Sizza, you know, fantastic vocalists, Hilarious.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
I'm tweeting out about Sis's latest album very late, but
bangers on this.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Look, you gotta look, there's a lot of music out there.
We're not kids anymore.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
We're waiting on the Tuesday when music would drop and
be like, did you go to Sam Goodie and get
the CD?
Speaker 4 (04:36):
Because it's like seventy things that come out every day.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Anyway, she tweeted, sorry to be old and annoying, but
is no one going to talk about how galaxy gas
came out of nowhere and is being mass marketed to
black children? The government is doing nothing. Since when are
we selling whippets at the store? Somebody protect the children.
Something about the childlike designs and marketing is so spooky,
like stars and bright colors.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
You're trying to entice the kids on purpose.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
And at the time, like I've been like in the UK,
there's like a lot of soccer players get fucking they
get caught up doing laughing gas and shit like that.
And I've noticed too in a lot of like rap
videos too. You see people like hitting cans of like
fucking naws like in different ways.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Like it used to be those little whipp.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
It cartridges for like a home, you know, whipped cream
thing that sort of like silver cartridge. Now this shit
like Galaxy gas. It is branded. It's so colorful, like
the bottles and stuff, and it's stuff like mango smoothie
ice cream. Like it's straight up flavors. Yeah wow. Whereas
(05:37):
like before, they're like it's nice like whipp It the
things that used to be, but in bigger ass cans
now and with flavors. But they say like, oh, it's
to help in It's like it's for culinary use only.
But if you're using it for culinary use, like you
don't need a flavored gas because potentially you're like your head.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
Is so in the game.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
You're flavoring whatever yourself that you need to inject with
like banana chemical flavor.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
It's to power your Derby car. It's mango smoothie flavor. Yeah,
exactly for your kids Derby car their mouth.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
But anyway, I just like looking at that and now
seeing like how there's definitely like a proliferation of articles
more and more where people like the new trend. I
saw video like they're just like there's people doing shit
on TikTok making it look all fun and shit. I'm
telling you that just as an old head, I will
sat like an old person here, you do not this
(06:30):
ship is not good for you.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
It is not the fucking experience you want, chemically or otherwise.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
And I just like, again, I just need to tell
the youth just leave that nitrous oxide alone, please please?
And what the fuck is this company doing with like
all this flavored shit. It's like it feels like the
early Jewel days, you know what I mean, when it
was like, no, this ain't for kids, but it's called
like uh like unicorn, huh yeah, you know exactly.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Galaxy gas is what a DARE officer would call it.
Like I feel like, you know, did you when the
DARE officer came in and we're like, yeah, weed, Devil's
devil salad and like all the galaxy gas feels. I
remember him like calling some drug like black ice, and
everybody just like laughing at him because we were twelve.
(07:21):
Yeah you know what the fuck?
Speaker 1 (07:21):
You know, like you go to a like I remember
I was in a head shop like to get some papers,
and like they just had a bunch on the fucking
walls there. I was like wow, And it didn't really
connect at the time. I was like with this big
old galaxy gus shit. And now I'm like putting it
all together and I'm like it's everywhere, and yeah, just
please talk to your kids about galaxy gas and Halen's
(07:45):
is like one of the like growing segments of like
intoxicans for like younger people. So I didn't realize how
much the kids were fucking with NOAs like that and
not diverse.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
That's pretty scary. Yeah, I mean I was associated with
like the very drugs that people did when you couldn't
get like you were too young to get drugs. Like
the things that the kids that I grew up with
did was whippets and then like passing out, Oh where
you just like took a bunch of deep breaths and
(08:15):
then like made the person pass out.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
Ye ye, yep, just some light brain damage.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
You know, yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
We just just please damage my brain, hitt these thoughts
away from me. That's fucking crazy.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Yeah, So.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
My underrated I got a couple like sweaters on the
beach movies love these esthetically it looks good.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Like, yeah, it's always Cape Cod. I feel like there's
always like the Atlantic seaboard when you.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Were and we went to like a tidepool beach like
so not not like a beachy day, but just like
a low tide end of the day check out, like
what was left behind type beach. Leo Correo also shout
out like there's all these places around Los Angeles that
are named for like actors who I think were like
the George Clooney of their day, but then like nobody
(09:04):
remembers them at all, but like a.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Smart idea Will Rogers.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Yeah, Will Rogers, I guess is pretty well known. But
like Leo Careo, I didn't I didn't know about him.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, but I didn't know either. That's a guy A
place like you could go camp like as a teenager
and no one would bother you and you could like smoke.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
A good strategy, find like an out of the way
spot that is very pretty and name name.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
It after who was this Leo Careo.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
I didn't do a lot of research, but.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
I know it's an American actor, vaudevillian, political, cartoonist and conservationist.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
So said Will Rogers, also a vaudevillian.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Guy too, like around that same era.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Yeah, Will American vaudeville. What's the vaudeville beaches and ship?
Speaker 3 (09:49):
Yeah yeah, all right.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Anyway, SoundCloud rappers should be the next generation of entertainers.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
I get their own beaches after this.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
I always assumed that, like you, why would you ever
wear a sweater on the beach, But you know, we
we brought our sweaters to this beach. It was like
in the sixties and the sun was going down and
the Pacific is fucking freezing, so it was chilly. And
it's just a just a good look. That's just a brief,
a little no no family photosh We we didn't. We
(10:18):
weren't like coordinating or anything like that. We just but
I got a lot of pictures shark fish and anemones
and oh yeah, come on, dude. But the other my
other underrated. So I watched this movie Rebel Ridge this weekend,
which is has been like near the top of like
the Netflix uh charts, and I'm gonna call it like
(10:42):
a cabsploitation, Like it's like a guy getting fucked with
by cops and repeatedly just like fucking the police up
over and over again.
Speaker 4 (10:54):
It's like an ouva bowl film, like where like one.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Kind of but it's like well done. Oh okay, it's
it's pretty well done. It's like it starts out and
you think it's just gonna be like a remake of
First Blood, like where you know the first Rambo, which
is like a better movie than people remember because the
sequels were so ridiculous. But in that movie, like Rambo's
(11:18):
a Vietnam vet and like he gets sucked with by
a local sheriff and then like runs off into the
woods and is just like killing cops from those woods
the whole time. So in this I was wondering, like
why they weren't doing that, because after he gets sucked
with one time, he just like continues to go back
and like find the movie just like finds ways for
him to interact with the cops. But it's actually smart
(11:43):
because it just repeatedly like recreates these scenarios we've seen
with like corrupt cops, like arresting someone, finding different ways
to like fuck someone up, or at one point they
like pull him over but like don't use their lights
and then they explain like it's because if the lights flash,
(12:04):
then their dash cam camera starts up and like they're we're.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
About to be corrupt, all right, And it's like I'm
lifting the hood of my car, Like that's the other
thing cops do is like they pull the hood up
to block the engine.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
To let the engine cool off a little bit. But
it's yeah, so it's just seeing this these scenarios we've
seen so many times in actual like police body cam
footage like played out in a way where the cops
kind of get fucked up is very satisfying, and I
(12:39):
feel like it could be its own genre of movie
of just like repeatedly showing people fucking up.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Hey, yeah, you know, you know it's better than real
police reforms movies where they taking it out of the
cops and then that will act as a salve for
us in our ailing society.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Yeah, and then it'll give people ideas of what to
do and they'll all get armed. So maybe not a
good idea, but it was very satisfied.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
I'm gonna I mean, like when you said I'm I'm
watching this, I mean just seem like a still poot.
I'm like, why is this guy intact gear like fighting
the cops and I'm like, okay, I'll ask last questions,
yeah and start watching more. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
His backstory is like that he trains the military on
how to like do hand to hand combat when you're
unarmed and they're armed, and like.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Have like escalate a situation premise.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Yeah, and so he's like anti weapon, Like he's like
kind of got Batman rules where he like won't use
a weapon on somebody. He's just like disarming them over
and over again.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Oh I love that shit.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Yeah, it's a blast. I highly recommend. But yeah, it's
just it was smart of them to be like, Okay,
these are thereforce scenarios, keep seeing over and over again. Yeah,
what is miles something you think is overrated?
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Overrated summer now that it's fall. And I have to say,
along with that is the food.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
I have two things.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
The first is just a parent thing that I think
all parents experience, which is like you get all these
like toys from relatives and stuff that are nice that
you think your kid is gonna play with, and they
just want to play with a fucking tube of toothpaste
for like days, and you're like, what about this nice
thing grandma got you that's made of like wood and
is like baby safe, and he's like, nah, dude, I'm
(14:38):
gonna keep trying to eat this hand sanitizer hand spray
bottle and like just like fuck with this forever very
I mean, in a way, bless their bless their imaginations
for making toys out of those things. But yeah, just
like with the season change on paper, because it's still
hot here. I did a thing last night, just like
(14:59):
when we were talking with Lydia, just getting into I'm
in Peepaw fall right now. Yeah, such a nice pork
stew last night that with I'm not in like these
mashed potatoes Jack, I put a fucking pound of butter
for it was three and a half pounds of potatoes,
one pound of butter, and it's just the perfect vessel
(15:22):
for the stew to sit upon, and I cut up some.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
It was just so fucking good.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
And anyway, I realized too, how much like food helps
bring like sort of in a sense, in a sensory way,
bring you into the next season because like the mood. Yeah, yeah,
because I did. I did on Saturday, I like grilled.
I was like, let me just get my last kind
of grill at not that I won't I'll stop grilling,
but like this felt like they're like, Okay, this is
kind of like, you know, we're getting into falling out
(15:47):
summer grill exactly fully into the stews. So I just
got to say, summer, it's been great. You were very
fucking hot this year in Los Angeles, and people who
knows what fall will look like. But now I'm realizing
I'm ready to wear sleeves. I'm wearing ready to wear
a hoodie. I'm ready to wear pants and I want
(16:08):
that very soon.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
And you're you're ready to wear sleeves, but you're just
for the listener. You're not wearing sleeves right now. You're
still wearing a cut off yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
And I have like cropped it's cropped too, like I
look like a linebacker from the eighties.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
To Belichick chic cut off sleeves hoodies.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
Yeah, wasn't that what he called them?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
They're called give ups like I give up, yeah, like
wearing like rocking the sweatpants and at times, but yeah,
I got my give ups on that's great.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
I'm like, I'll take that.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
I was listening to a sports podcast that was covering
like one of the rings NFL shows. I guess there's
other sports podcasts besides my Jack Mad Boosts. Right, So
I was just I just found out about this, so
I was just checking them out. But they were talking
about like coach expressions and like they were talking about
how like Mike Tomlin is always saying cut your eyelids off,
(17:04):
keep your eyes open, cut your eyelids off, players, and uh,
what's his name? From the Chargers. Harbaugh was like, I'm
gonna die leaning on my staff like Moses about like
his coaching staff.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Wow, trust, wow, Wow, this is this is great like
high level coach poetry. He's the son of the other Harbor.
Is that the deal?
Speaker 3 (17:29):
No, he's the brother of the other Harbor.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Oh wait, so they were Jim John Yeah, okay, got it,
got it, got it.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Jim was the Michigan, right, Jim is the Michigan and
now Chargers and now Chargers.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
Okay, okay.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
And people were like, so, how do you feel about
your like offensive coordinator's decision? And he was like, ah,
you know, call me Moses because I'm gonna die leaning
on my staff.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Yeah. I call him the staff al of Caucus because
they're deadly to others, you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (17:58):
You hear me, our tactics, man our place.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
Yeah hell yeah, but yeah, I don't know if they
have writers writing for them or if that's just like
a part of you have to have that like weird
gym teacher poetry in.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
The brain because it's like a pimp, you know what
I mean, Like and like the least problematic sense of
like you got to convince a group of people to
like ride for you and put their bodies on the line,
and you kind of need the gift of gap to
sort of be like, you know how like that old
player ship that like you got to make sure your
next move is your best move, you know what I mean,
Because I'm ready, like you know, like a referee with
(18:32):
a whistle like that kind of shit. I feel like, yeah,
you need those little isms that like kind of get
it that connect, because it's not enough to be like
wake the fuck up. Yeah yeah, and.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
You're like cut my eyelids off, exact, cut my and
you always don't close your eyes forever.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Yeah, everyone had terrible eye infections.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
They're like anyway, kind of with my this weekend, it
didn't go so well.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
A lot of pinky now, that's right.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
My overrated is old bagels I had bagels this weekend
a place to like bagels every couple hours. Old bagels
are overrated, fresh bagels underrated. I guess I'm just an
underrated kind of guy because this is clearly an underrated
disguised as an oprated. But I yeah, my like having
(19:22):
a fresh bait. I was like, I have not been
having bagels until now, like that. Any bagel that's not
freshly baked is such bad.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Yeah, it's so subpar. It's such bad pr for the
bagel brand.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Yeah, yep.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
You know, I've been reviving them with the toaster here
and there, but not close to what I experienced this weekend.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Yeah. Well, because you freeze them, like do you get
fresh ones and then you freeze them sometimes?
Speaker 3 (19:49):
Yeah, so we've done that before, or we get the
buy in the grocery store. It's just like a sponge
and it's like mostly just uh, it's.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Bagels taped bread. That's not a bagel like that you
buy at the store like that. It has to come
from dude.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
Like spongey from the preservatives.
Speaker 4 (20:07):
Have you had a sour dough bagel? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah from lady. Have you been to that spot?
Speaker 3 (20:13):
No, So I just so I'm a novice to this.
We were going to a place that last week, like
a friend's house where my kids are like taking a class,
and so last week they brought fresh bagels. So I
was like, I've had these bagels from this place Courage.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
Oh yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
So I went there and the weight was thirty minutes
to order, and then as I was waiting, someone who
had just reached the front was like, oh, also, it's
fifty minutes after you order for them to give you bagels.
So I wow. Went to a different place that was
called c A L I see, I think, and their
(20:55):
whole thing is just like we baked new bagels every
two hours and the whole shit, yeah, oh, I think
just like fresh baked any bread product is such a
is so different. Like my my favorite pizza place that
I've talked about on here before is Manco and Manco
on the Jersey Shore, And but I've like realized that
(21:16):
it goes bad within ten minutes of like getting out
of the oven. It doesn't like go bad, but it
just becomes pretty mediocre after that. And I feel like
if I granted every other pizza place that same grace,
I would probably still think Manco Omeco is the best,
but like it's I don't know, like that that makes
such a difference. Like yeah, because bread is a pham
(21:39):
so it's like naturally not going to.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Be it's the insane environment.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Yeah, like ten minutes after it comes out and like
achieves that form.
Speaker 4 (21:48):
So yeah, I like Courage.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
I like Bell's Bagels, I like Mary's Bagels, Layla Bagels.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Yeasts a bunch of places. Yeasty boy. Yeah that sounds
very I love a fun name. Also, Quick overrated your
ability to own a pigmy hippo in my moodang research,
I was searching pigmy hippo size to like find out
(22:17):
what their size would be full grown. And when I
put pigmy hippo s it auto completed to sale, and
oh god, that that worried me. So I would suggest
not owning, not trying to go out and buy your.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Own island right now, smuggle one back.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Yeah, they get to be up to like six hundred
to nine hundred pounds, and I'm just gonna say those Yeah,
I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
This is also a thing that I am now completely
unsure of any any research I do, because I am
realizing that the Google AI is Assistant is so fucking
bad at it.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
Length four to six feet, weight four hundred to six hundred.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Yeah, this thing fulls oh shit. Yeah, I don't want
nothing to do with that. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
One of them, I was like danger, pigmy hippo Danger,
and like one of them ate a antelope at a
zoo in Ohio. I think that's like killed an antio.
I don't know if it ate the whole thing, but.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
So all right, well I guess I'll put that dream aside.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
So that that's our those are our PSAs, ye, and
don't don't try and buy a pigmy hippo.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Hey, always wisdom from this show.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
That's right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back,
and we're back.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
We're back, man.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
My kids have like a little bit of a cough,
and this weekend I was having like a couple moments
where I was like, man, I've got RFK boys, like
my boy like has there's something on my vocal chord
or something. Yeah, there was like something where I couldn't
I've hadn't speak right for I.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Sound like like when I've I was at a wedding,
like maybe a few months ago, and I completely lost
my voice and I sounded like funk Houser from Curby Enthusiasm,
like super Dave Osborne, like it was like Larry like
it was. My vocal cords were shocked. Didn't quite get
to rf to shreddo Yeah, yeah, yeah, I couldn't. Could
not get like a full bodied voice out all right.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Well, amazingly, speaking of r f K h his being
investigated for desecrating Yeah, and up p s A. So
the p s A don't send nudes to r FK Junior. Okay, Okay,
I know it sounds like a good idea. Yeah, and
we were all tempted to do so, but I'm going
to explain why why not to? So he was being
(25:01):
investigated for desecrating a whale carcass, as we learned at
the end of last week, for the story where he
chainsaw the head of a whale off and put it
on top of his van. That didn't turn out to
be the biggest RFK Junior scandal of the week because
New York Magazines Olivia, Newsy, Nuzzy and used ez I
(25:24):
See was forced to take a leave after New York
magazine discovered that she allegedly had a personal relationship with
RFK Junior.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Okay, a personal relationships like their friends.
Speaker 3 (25:36):
Uh yeah, sorry, all right, I'm not allowed to have friends.
It was not physical, but it did involve the sending
of nude photos, which have repeatedly been described as demure.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Oh, very mindful, very demure. Yes, very very on point
with the use of the word demurre. It's happened such
a moment right now. Okay, so very demure, very mindful
nude photos. Yes, but they weren't having a physical relationship.
They were not having a physical relationship. She had written
a profile of him called that was titled the mind
Bending Politics of RFK Junior Spoiler Campaign, and it wasn't
(26:15):
like particularly flattering. I would say, like, sure, he seems
kind of like an asshole, Like he seems like real angry.
Throughout the profile.
Speaker 3 (26:26):
At one point they like hop in his van and
She's like, I honestly like couldn't stop from gagging, Like
this van is just like covered in dog hair and
smells terrible. I don't know if it's the same van
that transported the whalehead all those years ago, but it
sounds like it could be.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Dude, I'm gagging in your van is just like to
fucking wild as shit. Yeah, I love that he drives
a van, though, there's just something RFK Junior with his
like wacky anti vaxer shit whale chainsng love of you know, life.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
He should be writing around this stinky ass van.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
With no seatbelts because the dogs have chewed all the
seatbelts off. He just like runs around with a wild
pack of dogs. But like that comes off with somewhat
he kind of like So the drawing that goes with
the article makes him look like he's having some kind
of emotional breakdown inside a Doctor Seuss book and like
(27:26):
he's crying and there's like dogs, but it's like a
you know, a fun illustration. So that's because he does
just like burst into tears throughout the profile piece. Oh
and he just seems, yeah, like somewhat unstable. I remember
reading it and being like, Wow, this guy seems like
he's got a lot going on and shouldn't be the president.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Yeah yeah, no, not at all. That's not the kind
of guy. I don't even want to hang out with him.
So no, I don't. I means I wouldn't trust him
with anything outside of leaving me the fuck alone and
not having to do it intersected my life in any way. Yeah,
which and then she got fired. Is she fired?
Speaker 3 (28:05):
She's been put on leave because they said it like
poorly reflects on their you know, impartiality and you know,
all the stuff that journalism is supposed to care about.
Although she said it happened after the profile. So the
way that this apparently came out is that she sent
him the demure nude photos and he proceeded to brag
(28:30):
about that to so many people that it got back
to the editor of New York Magazine, who they do
not like. Uh so did you This is gonna seem
weird and based on your reporting, I can't imagine it's true,
but yeah, you And then she denied it, denied it,
(28:51):
and then came clean from HR.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
Right, that's why she's here. So that's what I'm just
gonna ask this to you.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
And this is I'm asking you this in the most
objective sense, Right, did you send nude pics to RFK Junior?
I can say that, right, Uh yeah, I mean that
makes sense. That's so when I read that, like, like
she only got busted because this dude was bragging about it.
I like, immediately, I was like, wait, there was something
(29:18):
about that in the Vanity Fair this guy's eating a
dead dog profile too, and I went back to find it.
And then this is another part. This is from that
Vanity therapiece quote. When Kennedy was married to his second wife,
Mary Richardson, he was known to text other damning images
to friends as well of nude women. Those friends assumed
Kennedy himself had taken the pictures, but they didn't know
(29:40):
whether the subjects had consented to having their genitalia photographed,
let alone shared with other people. When one friend lost
his phone, he panicked that somebody might discover the images.
So yeah, this is all this is. I know, lies
detected at this point.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Yeah, his campaign, for the most part is like he
only met Olivia Nutzi once in his life for an
interview which turned out to be a hit piece. And
if she wants to send him some demure nude photos, right,
you know what can he do?
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Hit piece and now rag about.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
Them to everybody?
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (30:19):
So he is married to Cheryl Hines from Curb Your Enthusiasm?
Any update on that as no updates as of yet, Babe, they.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
Were very demure, very mindful nudes. Okay, that that's account
for something.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
Yeah, I was annoyed by the whole demure thing just
because it seemed like people were really forcing it. But
now it just seems like people are going to use
it more in their vocabulary and it's a very fine word.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
So yeah, but I think I would say, like at
least a solid sixty percent of people don't know what
demuir means, right, Like it's just a way to describe
a vibe. But I hope people understand the modesty aspect
of Yeah, that's what I hope comes back to our society.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Well, speaking of the Trump campaign, because our kid Jringer
did endorse Donald Trump, we do like to check in
with the Trump campaign from first of all, from the
perspective of what's he selling these days?
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Yeah, what's what's he grifting on? Hell? Yeah, what do
you got for me?
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Man?
Speaker 1 (31:23):
How can how can I? How can you unburden me
of my dollars? Donald Trump?
Speaker 3 (31:27):
So every week it feels like there's some sub QVC
merchandise being uh sold and ridiculed online. So he has
recently announced that he's selling coins, claiming that it's the
only official coin designed by me. I love I love
(31:48):
the idea of Donald Trump taking graphic design courses and
like learning photoshops.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
And a design you will guess what's on it, so.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
You're never gonna I mean, this is pretty wild, Like
the guy's doing some next level thinking. It's on one side,
it's the White House with his signature with a big flag,
big flag over what's.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
It's like that half the width of the White House
is about how wide this fucking American flag is above it?
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Yes, yeah, it's a it's it would be a illogically
big flag where it actually sized that way. And then
like the it's in God we trust is written above
the top, but it like doesn't it looks cheap and
weird because it only has like it doesn't have all
the detailing of even a nickel, you know, right, Like
(32:38):
there's a lot of empty space in it, which makes
it weird. And then on the other side, the moneymaker,
we got Donald J. Trump across the top, and then
a picture of Donald Trump that looks like Ted Copple.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Yeah if Ted Copple was like flattened by a steamroller. Yeah, yeah,
that's what this is.
Speaker 4 (33:02):
This is exactly what this looks.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
Like very unflattering. So that's very mir very unflattering, very demure,
very very mindful.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
He's selling the coin for.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
One hundred dollars even though it contains around thirty dollars
worth of silver and perfect. Yeah, this is not you know,
as as you might have noticed from his sale pitch
that this is not the only Trump coin. This is
just the only official coin designed by Miame. There are
other Trump coins, these ones in gold, because he knows
(33:33):
that his followers love gold. Love of gold now.
Speaker 4 (33:39):
Asterisk and not made of real gold.
Speaker 3 (33:41):
Yeah, but these ones are like even more unflattering.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Yeah, like, so he should never be shown in profile,
even if it is for a coin that's like meant
to pump your own dick up and pretend you won
the elunction. There's like a Trump one challenge coin and
his profile he looks like Boss Nass from Phantom of
the Menace. He looks like Phantom of the Menace. Yep,
(34:10):
Phantom of the Phantom of the Opera Menace. H huh.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
Yeah, and the other one is just troubling, all the
images of him. What the silver one looks nothing like him,
and then the gold ones are seem like they would
be like very unflattering likenesses and perhaps the reason that
he felt the need to put his own coin out.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
And the other one, it looks like he's taking the
Elvis ship that seals your destiny.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
That's like, what is basically it's like.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
And you have taken the Elvis shit that seals your destiny.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Oh, thank you.
Speaker 3 (34:51):
So anyways, just we wanted to share this exciting opportunity,
investment opportunity with our listeners.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Now, let's soften that with a bit of polling.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
Well, and also explain why this might be the official
coin of the realm pretty soon. Because he so, he
is surging in polls. According to the latest New York
Times polling, he's going up in Arizona, Georgia, and North Carolina.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
And if Democrats lost all those states, it'll be bad,
Like it would be much more difficult for.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
The Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona. Kamala must win, Pennsylvania must win, Wisconsin,
must win, Michigan. Yeah. Yeah, it's there's it's it's it's
a it gets tricky there, It gets tricky there to
get to two seven.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
And if he's actually doing really well in those states,
he's probably doing much better than expected in other states.
Is usually how election results work, you know, the like
the states aren't completely distinct from one another. So this
is this is the first really bad polling for Harris
in a number of weeks. But the New York Times
(36:05):
polling has been a little bit to the right of
the overall averages over the past, you know, since before
the debate, and then this is the first poll that
like kind of seemed to return to that right word
lean since the debate. I've also I just want to
like note how I'm reading polls these days, because there's
(36:29):
this guy and ed Injermentum. Are you familiar with him. Yeah,
he's like a poll reader who is one of the
few people who got the polls right ahead of the midterm.
He was like one of the few people who was like,
I don't think it's going to be a red wave.
And one of the things that he was able to
pull out was basically that there's all these polls and
(36:51):
You've mentioned this off handedly before, but I just wanted
to like kind of focus in on it. There's all
these poles that are basically designed to generate the appearance
of support for Republican policies and Republican politicians. Yeah, because
they know it's like absolutely guaranteed that Fox News will
pick those up, like or you know one American News
(37:14):
confirmation bias.
Speaker 1 (37:15):
Baby, who's God for me?
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:18):
So basically, even though these are polls that are like, well,
we'll give them a C or like a C plus
or a B minus in like like five point thirty
eight takes all poles into account and just grades them differently.
And this guy basically predicted the midterm results by being like,
you actually shouldn't take those into account at all, you
(37:39):
should just leave them out. So his read has been
that she's like in a good position heading into the
final forty two days. Jesus, that's giving me fucking anxiety
the area. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
Yeah, I've been telling this motherfucker to take its fucking time,
and now we're forty two out, all right, Jackie Robinson,
that's right.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
But yeah, there's just all these garbage pull Like so
even since the mid term, there's like a bunch of
Twitter personalities and what he calls politics obsessed teenagers getting
into polling as a hobby, and like all of their
polls get averaged. You know, they have a small weight
on it, but they have enough of a weight that
(38:22):
they affect what like five thirty eight averages and models
look like, right, and so he was able to get
a more accurate read by just ignoring all of those.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
Yeah, well, I mean because what Nate Silver, he left
five thirty eight, right, He's like doing it own. He's
like doing a weird thing that people are like, what's
up with his polling? But yeah, I mean, I know,
like in Newsweek they were saying, you know, like they're like,
Nate Silver's model has Kamala Harris winning for swing states.
But it's not the swing states we were just talking about.
It was the ones that like Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Nevada
(38:56):
that are must wins in the event that you know,
North Carolina and Georgia aren't aren't going to turn out
the way it will. But yeah, I mean, I think there's,
like like you were saying, there is there's a lot
of confirmation bias that play with polling and like.
Speaker 4 (39:08):
How people hire polsters.
Speaker 1 (39:10):
Like so if you're working on you know, like a
ballot proposition and you have like a consortium of wealthy
donors who are the ones bankrolling the entire thing. You
need to check in with them to show them how
their money is being well spent. By that, I mean,
you show them polls that look good and be like,
oh my god, thanks so much. I know, we asked
for that extra hunter k blah blah blah. That's how
(39:30):
that translated. This Like here's some latest polling. Da da
da da da, and they go, oh, okay, here, here's
more money.
Speaker 4 (39:35):
Here's more money.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
So guess what you will hire polsters that can help
shape the reality a bit, you know, to keep your
dollars flowing or you you know, getting to you know,
you know, covered on Fox or One American News or whatever.
So it's always like there's a there's definitely a bit
of it. It's not the most objective thing because sometimes
(39:57):
polls aren't necessarily for us or to indicate to us
what's happening.
Speaker 4 (40:02):
Sometimes, like you need polls that.
Speaker 1 (40:03):
Are just meant to message things for other purposes too.
But yeah, yeah, and it's going to be close.
Speaker 3 (40:08):
Fact, they have an effect in the sense that they
like give people confidence that oh the foxest narrative that
they're talking about is the act actually reflective of how
people out there feel. You know.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
Yeah, and you also you do for considering how deflated
conservatives have been since the beginning of Brat summer and
all the weird oh shit they need they need to
see something that tells them they're still in the game and.
Speaker 3 (40:33):
Nothing weird about those numbers.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Yeah, and by all measures, like I just in the
same way, like Democratic voters are being told like a
lot is on the line, a lot is at stake,
the same is being told to conservatives in a much
freakier fucking way. But they're they're also trying to tap
into their like this, it's all on the line this November.
Get your ass out there, so you know, we'll see
(40:58):
forty two days though, and and Georgia is gonna make
it fucking very difficult. So speaking of Georgia, we've talked
about the Georgia Elections Board and the MAGA members of
that election board that like Donald Trump, like called out
by name at a rally, like we love them, notary folks.
They're gonna completely fuck the rat for us when it
comes to these election results. And they've altered the rules
(41:22):
to the point that like essentially this election board can
decide whether or not to certify election results uh oh.
And now it got worse somehow because over the weekend
it was reported they've changed the rules now, so millions
of ballots will have to be fucking hand counted. Jesus
hand counting. The handcover quote requires the poll manager and
(41:44):
two sworn poll officers to unseal ballot boxes, remove and
record the ballots, and have three poll officers independently count them.
And it's not like that they're saying, like you need
to record the results, just purely the number of ballots cast.
Speaker 4 (41:59):
It is what they're trying to go after, and.
Speaker 1 (42:00):
The process is so fucking convoluted it's like pointless to describe.
But essentially three people at each polling place are going
to handcount ballots independently to make sure like all three
arrive at the same number. They're like, what'd you get?
What'd you get? Like, ah, off by two uh oh,
over four million? Yeah, or another like if it's taking
(42:23):
too long, which is the point, the Elections Board will
take over and determine if and when to certify the
results of a given precinct or.
Speaker 3 (42:31):
The Elections Board, which is very pro Trump, Yes.
Speaker 4 (42:34):
They have a Trump majority.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
Who is they are doing things that are extra legal
they are doing. They are not a legislative body. They
are an administrative body, so they're but they're saying like, oh, well,
now we're going to decide, you know, like we are
the b all end all and everyone's like, you can't
do that, and that's I'm like, our system's so fucking flimsy.
Speaker 4 (42:53):
If three assholes can just be.
Speaker 1 (42:55):
Like, no, we're changing it and now I'm in charge
and fuck you and there's no remedy to that, then
this Holy shit. I thought, you know, I thought this
was gonna get sorted, but no, here we are. And
you know, I think we've said this before because there's.
Speaker 4 (43:11):
Republicans like we need a hand count or whatever.
Speaker 1 (43:13):
That is one of the most I mean, like, I guess,
the most inaccurate way to count something unless you were
like blindfolded and on like acid or something and you
were told these were snakes you were handling, maybe you
get a more like a less accurate count. But machines,
So why machines fucking work here? And there were no
issues with these existing systems previously. But again, this is
(43:36):
all happening because this is the playbook for this election,
and there is a murky figure behind this elections board
like sort of the like a group of very willing
elections officials across the state of Georgia.
Speaker 4 (43:49):
She was like, she's like very close to Trump.
Speaker 1 (43:51):
She was actually on the line on that same phone
call when Trump was asking Brad Rathensberger to find some
more votes. Yeah, so there's like as an you cheat
on this and make me president. Yes, she was like
on the phone for that call, like on the Trump side.
And now she has an entire infrastructure in place of
elections official that will basically do whatever they can to
(44:12):
cause as much chaos as possible and delay the results.
The Attorney General of Georgia is like, this seems like
a little bit too far. But whether or not that
is going to translate to any kind of legal remedy,
I'm not sure. Forty two days away jesus.
Speaker 3 (44:30):
Yeah, in other countries, like they know the results the
night that the election happens, in real time based they're
just like, uh and yeah, we have a winner like
right away. But in the US, yeah, this is gonna
George is gonna take days like maybe like weeks by
design because they want to give the Rats as much
(44:50):
of a chance to fuck.
Speaker 4 (44:52):
I think they have a six day period to count
Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1 (44:55):
And the fact that it's not happening sooner again is
because if you slow down the map from turning blue
or red in certain places for an audience that has
been fed a steady diet of election result denihilism, it's
just gonna it will help put roots down in their
minds that wait a second, is it happening again? Ye,
(45:19):
if it isn't an out, if it isn't a total blowout,
or if you know, Trump just drastically overperforms too, and
it's we got twenty sixteen Michael Jordan cry face on
the way.
Speaker 3 (45:30):
I do feel like he's going to do better than
like the MSM narrative of the past twenty days.
Speaker 1 (45:35):
It's too it's too cocky, Like yeah, it's weird, Like
I know that they're they're terrible at covering Donald Trump,
but they also are so dismissive to be like, and
we've won. Look at them. They're a mess. But yeah, also, like,
don't count out the fact that there are a lot
of wealthy people that are putting tons of money and
(45:56):
also to try and help Trump win, and add to
that all these fucking creeps out here who are just like, yeah, man,
I'll fucking I'll put my finger on the fucking scale.
Speaker 4 (46:06):
I don't care even if I am indicted.
Speaker 3 (46:09):
Yeah, yeah, I feel I feel like I don't know.
But either way, like it's important to stay focused on
the information that actually matters and not a smoke screen
of like people who are just horny for Hannity to
say their name or the name of their pulling outlet.
But yeah, like the stuff with the Georgia election board
(46:30):
feels like it's gonna matter. And then like the actual
pulling that seems to be suggesting he's doing better than expected. Uh,
probably need to pay attention to that too.
Speaker 2 (46:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (46:40):
Well, it's just tough too, because like he and I
think you are alluding to this in something you're reading
that I wrote, is that like his playbook isn't to
appeal to anyone aside from like the like the biggest
low lifes. Yeah, Whereas like Democrats are like they're not
doing the thing that energizes progress, like their entire base
(47:03):
of voters. They're like, if we just fucking curl up
into a ball, maybe no one will notice anything that
we're not changing this situation in the country, And we
can just get through this, rather than like Joe Biden
even was you remember when they're like, yo, this motherfucker
fdr to electric bogloo when he was running in twenty
(47:24):
twenty with like some of the policies, Like these policies
aren't e fucking close. They're like, yeah, man, yeah, more
money for the cops, baby, uh, less money for people?
Speaker 4 (47:33):
All right, any questions? Yeah, all right, great, Yeah, the
see November.
Speaker 3 (47:39):
The stuff that the mainstream media like points to as
like disqualifying, like his racism, willingness to say anything, just
seems to strengthen his appeal with a lot of the
people who are already interested in voting for him. And
then and then the mainstream media pointing it out like
I don't know what you're supposed to do in this case,
(47:59):
but that also seems to make people happy because it's
like triggering the the Libs. But yeah, on the Democratic side,
it just feels like we're watching them try to like
balance between different positions that won't offend this party, and
you know, like right, because they are for a status
(48:19):
quo that the people voting for them aren't actually happy with,
and so it just it's a disadvantage.
Speaker 1 (48:27):
On a macro level, Like this is where I'm like,
these people are so stupid. Ask any normal person who
has a regular existence like a job and a family
or a debt or whatever, I would tell I'd wager
eighty percent of people are like, man, this shit can't
continue the way it's going. Yeah, like the way my life,
(48:47):
how chaotic my life feels, how you know, stretched thin
I feel without any help, without any kind of relief.
Speaker 4 (48:54):
This isn't sustainable.
Speaker 1 (48:56):
And the fact that that is so that's permeating throughout
the zeitgeist and through people's like minds and not being
addressed in sort of like you can activate something that
a huge, a large amount of people are feeling right
now that quite can't articulate it. But the fact that,
like to your point, it's like, well, we're kind of
here to defend that shitty status quo.
Speaker 4 (49:16):
It's like, dude, you're ugh, this isn't it's not energizing.
Speaker 1 (49:20):
This fucking freaks out here being like they're eating pats
and they're fucking jacking off to this nonsense. It's fucking wild.
Speaker 4 (49:27):
And like here it's like, hey man, we have like.
Speaker 1 (49:30):
Like the most regressive immigration plan we've had as a
party in a long time. Uh sure, yeah, excited. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (49:38):
Trump is also, by the way, for a status quo
in all the important ways that would impact people's day
to day lives. Like he's going to do things that
benefit the extremely wealthy, but just.
Speaker 4 (49:51):
For that group of people.
Speaker 3 (49:52):
Yeah, yeah, for that group of people that don't care.
They just he can say whatever wild ass thing pops
into his head and they're going to enjoy it as
long as it makes people say that's that's a terrible
thing to say.
Speaker 1 (50:06):
Exactly, because again, those people are also dealing with their
stressed out, unhappy lives too. But it's the remedy to
that is manifesting in a very different way, which is like, yeah, man,
fucking everyone's gonna cry. And that's that sort of level
of destruction, Like I mean, will be who will come
to pass if things don't anyway. Yeah, we'll see, we'll see.
(50:30):
We'll see, man, we'll see, we'll see, we will see.
Speaker 3 (50:33):
Let's let's take one more break and we'll come back
and talk some pop culture stuff.
Speaker 2 (50:37):
We'll be right back, and we're back.
Speaker 1 (50:48):
We're back, and.
Speaker 3 (50:50):
Uh at the box office, let's check in with the
bo Beetle Juice. Beetle Juice continues to be baffo was
number one. Still I'm going tonight. It's legging out. It's
it's got legs the trades.
Speaker 4 (51:09):
Is are they saying it's legging out?
Speaker 1 (51:11):
Oh it's a leggy box office boffo.
Speaker 3 (51:14):
Okay, So it was number one of the box office
for a third weekend in a row, chopping topping the
new Transformers movie Transformers one, which our writer JM was like, wait,
what there's a new Transformers movie. Yeah, my kids were
acutely aware they were locked in on this ship.
Speaker 1 (51:35):
Yeah it's live action.
Speaker 3 (51:38):
No, it's animated.
Speaker 1 (51:40):
And oh it's not computer animated. That's why your kids
know about it, and the fucking drug using adults don't
know about it.
Speaker 3 (51:47):
That's right, Yeah, which isn't fair because I'm sure it
would be fun to watch on drugs. The animation is
pretty cool in moments.
Speaker 1 (51:55):
Oh really, Yeah, it's.
Speaker 5 (51:57):
Like Spider Man level interesting, like King with the Okay, no,
just like not like it kind of has a unique
style and it sticks with it and there's just like
some cool action sequences where they take advantage of the
fact that they don't.
Speaker 3 (52:12):
Have to like make this look like it's happening in reality.
It's made by the director of Toy Story four, which
you know that movie. I really enjoyed that movie and
the overall. Yeah, so I took my kids to see
it this weekend. Only fell asleep for like fifteen minutes. Yeah,
(52:35):
my kids absolutely loved it.
Speaker 4 (52:37):
I thought they fell asleep.
Speaker 3 (52:39):
I no, No, I only fell asleep for fifteen minutes.
Speaker 4 (52:43):
Was it which should they wake you up? Or did
you do that thing? We're like, oh, ship up in
a sleep?
Speaker 1 (52:47):
Yeah, the latter.
Speaker 3 (52:49):
And when I told them that I was asleep for
a portion of it because they were asking me a
question that I couldn't answer.
Speaker 1 (52:56):
About what happened? Like that what happened?
Speaker 3 (53:02):
But I, yeah, it's a very good execution of what
it is. But I expected this movie to do badly
from the second I saw the first trailer because it
like takes place on their home, like on the Transformer
home planet, like in a Transformer's world where they like
it's just like Transformer v. Transformer fighting, like bug aliens
(53:26):
mixed in and there's just like a ton of moving
parts and like it's not even clear like what the
steaks are or like what what's haed Like you kind
of have to be familiar with Transformers lore, and the
animation does take like a little getting used to, and
my kids fucking loved it. I ate too many Jlopago
peppers with my popcorn and haven't felt right since.
Speaker 4 (53:50):
With each kernel.
Speaker 3 (53:52):
Basically, oh man, that I don't recommend that I like.
As much as I enjoy it, I need to stop
doing it because it really fucks me up. Stach, Oh yeah,
but it does. It does feel like a movie where
the IP is weighing it down, like if they had
taken a similar story and like put it in a
world that wasn't Transformers and just like simplified it without
(54:17):
like all the lore and you know the things you
have to do because you're telling a Transformers movie. I
feel like it might have done better.
Speaker 1 (54:26):
I wonder how it did in China, though, which I
felt like has become the biggest audience for Transformers films,
like the last few.
Speaker 3 (54:32):
Ones disappointing both in America and overseas. I don't know
if it's opened in China yet. I can't imagine Beetlejuice.
Beetlejuice is doing well in China right because don't they
not fuck with ghosts.
Speaker 1 (54:46):
Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (54:47):
Yeah, I always heard that as an explanation for why
the Star Wars movies don't do well in China.
Speaker 1 (54:52):
Yeah, but Beetlejuice is like a fucking you know, a creep. Yeah, yeah, ghost.
Speaker 3 (55:01):
Yeah that's true. He's just you know, he's real piece
of shit. But yeah not now my kid, like I
fucked up. Basically I shouldn't have taken my kids to
see this movie because now they're like, all they want
to do is see the Michael Bay Transformers movie, which
I had managed to not see a single like one
(55:21):
of those end to end.
Speaker 1 (55:22):
Then they'll have a formative memory that of Megan Fox
working on an old car. Yeah ah wow, to be
young again and have that be the movie or like
and I had, I had a crush on Megan Fox
from this old Transformers movie.
Speaker 4 (55:37):
Right, what an age?
Speaker 1 (55:38):
What an age?
Speaker 4 (55:39):
What an era?
Speaker 3 (55:41):
Anyways, it does feel like, I don't know, the the
IP stuff is obviously working in some cases right inside
out to Beetlejuice too. It's like a real uh summer
for Part two movies.
Speaker 1 (55:55):
I feel like the.
Speaker 3 (55:56):
Parts Parts two are killing it. But it does feel
like we're at some end point, and like movies made
by independent filmmakers on like cheap budgets are going to
have to start coming out and replacing what is being
lost in the current studio system.
Speaker 1 (56:17):
It's just a matter of like where.
Speaker 3 (56:18):
People are going to go see those because now like
Sony owns the Alamo Draft House, and like even the
independent theaters are kind of being owned. And you know
that there were there were monopoly laws about like distribution
and studios owning distribution methods, and those are kind of
gone away.
Speaker 4 (56:38):
Losers.
Speaker 1 (56:38):
Man, yeah, fuck the paramount decrees. Man, yeah, yeah, we
can all agree.
Speaker 3 (56:44):
I think we can all agree on this.
Speaker 1 (56:45):
I think I think look, Maga Democrat, we can all
degree all degree, we can all agree, agree, agree, Fuck
the paramount.
Speaker 4 (56:54):
I gotta go.
Speaker 3 (56:56):
That's been our time, folks, our brains shutting down.
Speaker 2 (57:00):
It's early.
Speaker 3 (57:02):
We are back tomorrow with the whole last episode of
the show. Until then, be kind to each other, be
kind to yourself, get the vaccine, get your flu shots,
don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we will talk
to all tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (57:16):
Bye bye,
Did you see be just yet?
Speaker 2 (00:04):
I did not.
Speaker 3 (00:04):
I saw Transformers one. Oh did you see Beat going tonight? Oh?
Speaker 1 (00:10):
To night? To Transformers one? They call it Transformers down here,
and you.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Thought it was Transformers one, you know up here as well?
Oh wait, wait a second Transformed there's two different Transformers movies. Yeah,
there's one and then there you know and one.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
I thought it was a crossover with the you know
the game. Yeah yeah, Transformers who know? Is just Transformers around,
you know for ninety minutes.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
I am now, I'm like, I have to look up
Transformers who Know. It's got to deck.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Yeah, I mean there's no flip Transformers Star. There's know
for everything they did the they monopoly that ship.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
They were like with we can your kids like your
kids like they know mm hmm yeah, I'm I think
that's like one of the few games that has the
same adrenaline rush from childhood into adulthood, like in terms of.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
Just straight up kid card games.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Ah, when you do the like and reverse and pick
five and I'm out, yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
For real, to the point where I only I only
play for the biggest high in Uno, Like I just
filled my hand with just death cards like and I'll wait.
I'll wait because I just want to build a hand
to just go out with it.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
It's like my fucking favorite. I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
I think it's like rope adoping somebody, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 3 (01:39):
In a card game, man, I just got so many
of these dang cards.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
You have three cards up, I have ten? No way
draw for reverse blue switch. Fuck you, I'm out peace.
That's that real ship. Because you know why, I think
as adults would make they would I would cry when
they would do that ship to me that like I
was forged in those fires that now like when I
(02:03):
do it, like yeah, like younger family members, bro, I'm
a fuck you. All the adults, especially on my dad's side,
there was no mercy for children in card games. Like
they're like, well, we can go easy on them. They're
like yeah, no, they were. It was like they were like,
you know, my grandmother Michael Jordan's ship. She's like, what's up, Hope,
(02:24):
He's we get that ship.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Oh we got a bitch tonight. As you sit down
to the table.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Played to play scrabble, she's like cracking her knuckles and ship,
She's this motherfucker can't read.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Hello the Internet and welcome to this week trend edition
of Guys. Yeah, production by Heart Radio. It's the podcast
where we take deep to have into American share consciousness.
And this is the episode where we tell you what
wasding over the weekend. My name is, of course Jack,
and that over there, well, that of course is my
co host, mister Miles.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yeah, nitrous oxide veteran. Wanting to your kids out really.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Quick by telling them how to do it by you're
doing it wrong.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Get a big ass balloon. Stop hitting it from the can.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
It's more fun with the balloon, more fish.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Anyway. Yeah, what a weekend?
Speaker 3 (03:29):
What a weekend?
Speaker 1 (03:30):
I'm forty years old and one week old now, I
like to think of it like that.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
I'm just going to start doing this every week.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
I'm forty years.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
And two weeks now.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Correct.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Well, this is the episode where we tell you, guys,
what is trending, what happened over the weekend. We also
get to know you a little better by telling you
what is something we think is underrated? What is something
we think is overrated? Miles, you want to tell them
something you think is under over dealers choice, what do
you want to start with?
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Let's do under rated and I think the youth are
underrating how terrible doing.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Nitrous oxide is for you.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Yeah, on Friday, right, I was like looking at Twitter
and Sizza, you know, fantastic vocalists, Hilarious.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
I'm tweeting out about Sis's latest album very late, but
bangers on this.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Look, you gotta look, there's a lot of music out there.
We're not kids anymore.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
We're waiting on the Tuesday when music would drop and
be like, did you go to Sam Goodie and get
the CD?
Speaker 4 (04:36):
Because it's like seventy things that come out every day.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Anyway, she tweeted, sorry to be old and annoying, but
is no one going to talk about how galaxy gas
came out of nowhere and is being mass marketed to
black children? The government is doing nothing. Since when are
we selling whippets at the store? Somebody protect the children.
Something about the childlike designs and marketing is so spooky,
like stars and bright colors.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
You're trying to entice the kids on purpose.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
And at the time, like I've been like in the UK,
there's like a lot of soccer players get fucking they
get caught up doing laughing gas and shit like that.
And I've noticed too in a lot of like rap
videos too. You see people like hitting cans of like
fucking naws like in different ways.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Like it used to be those little whipp.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
It cartridges for like a home, you know, whipped cream
thing that sort of like silver cartridge. Now this shit
like Galaxy gas. It is branded. It's so colorful, like
the bottles and stuff, and it's stuff like mango smoothie
ice cream. Like it's straight up flavors. Yeah wow. Whereas
(05:37):
like before, they're like it's nice like whipp It the
things that used to be, but in bigger ass cans
now and with flavors. But they say like, oh, it's
to help in It's like it's for culinary use only.
But if you're using it for culinary use, like you
don't need a flavored gas because potentially you're like your head.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
Is so in the game.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
You're flavoring whatever yourself that you need to inject with
like banana chemical flavor.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
It's to power your Derby car. It's mango smoothie flavor. Yeah,
exactly for your kids Derby car their mouth.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
But anyway, I just like looking at that and now
seeing like how there's definitely like a proliferation of articles
more and more where people like the new trend. I
saw video like they're just like there's people doing shit
on TikTok making it look all fun and shit. I'm
telling you that just as an old head, I will
sat like an old person here, you do not this
(06:30):
ship is not good for you.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
It is not the fucking experience you want, chemically or otherwise.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
And I just like, again, I just need to tell
the youth just leave that nitrous oxide alone, please please?
And what the fuck is this company doing with like
all this flavored shit. It's like it feels like the
early Jewel days, you know what I mean, when it
was like, no, this ain't for kids, but it's called
like uh like unicorn, huh yeah, you know exactly.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Galaxy gas is what a DARE officer would call it.
Like I feel like, you know, did you when the
DARE officer came in and we're like, yeah, weed, Devil's
devil salad and like all the galaxy gas feels. I
remember him like calling some drug like black ice, and
everybody just like laughing at him because we were twelve.
(07:21):
Yeah you know what the fuck?
Speaker 1 (07:21):
You know, like you go to a like I remember
I was in a head shop like to get some papers,
and like they just had a bunch on the fucking
walls there. I was like wow, And it didn't really
connect at the time. I was like with this big
old galaxy gus shit. And now I'm like putting it
all together and I'm like it's everywhere, and yeah, just
please talk to your kids about galaxy gas and Halen's
(07:45):
is like one of the like growing segments of like
intoxicans for like younger people. So I didn't realize how
much the kids were fucking with NOAs like that and
not diverse.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
That's pretty scary. Yeah, I mean I was associated with
like the very drugs that people did when you couldn't
get like you were too young to get drugs. Like
the things that the kids that I grew up with
did was whippets and then like passing out, Oh where
you just like took a bunch of deep breaths and
(08:15):
then like made the person pass out.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
Ye ye, yep, just some light brain damage.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
You know, yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
We just just please damage my brain, hitt these thoughts
away from me. That's fucking crazy.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Yeah, So.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
My underrated I got a couple like sweaters on the
beach movies love these esthetically it looks good.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Like, yeah, it's always Cape Cod. I feel like there's
always like the Atlantic seaboard when you.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Were and we went to like a tidepool beach like
so not not like a beachy day, but just like
a low tide end of the day check out, like
what was left behind type beach. Leo Correo also shout
out like there's all these places around Los Angeles that
are named for like actors who I think were like
the George Clooney of their day, but then like nobody
(09:04):
remembers them at all, but like a.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Smart idea Will Rogers.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Yeah, Will Rogers, I guess is pretty well known. But
like Leo Careo, I didn't I didn't know about him.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, but I didn't know either. That's a guy A
place like you could go camp like as a teenager
and no one would bother you and you could like smoke.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
A good strategy, find like an out of the way
spot that is very pretty and name name.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
It after who was this Leo Careo.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
I didn't do a lot of research, but.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
I know it's an American actor, vaudevillian, political, cartoonist and conservationist.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
So said Will Rogers, also a vaudevillian.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Guy too, like around that same era.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Yeah, Will American vaudeville. What's the vaudeville beaches and ship?
Speaker 3 (09:49):
Yeah yeah, all right.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Anyway, SoundCloud rappers should be the next generation of entertainers.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
I get their own beaches after this.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
I always assumed that, like you, why would you ever
wear a sweater on the beach, But you know, we
we brought our sweaters to this beach. It was like
in the sixties and the sun was going down and
the Pacific is fucking freezing, so it was chilly. And
it's just a just a good look. That's just a brief,
a little no no family photosh We we didn't. We
(10:18):
weren't like coordinating or anything like that. We just but
I got a lot of pictures shark fish and anemones
and oh yeah, come on, dude. But the other my
other underrated. So I watched this movie Rebel Ridge this weekend,
which is has been like near the top of like
the Netflix uh charts, and I'm gonna call it like
(10:42):
a cabsploitation, Like it's like a guy getting fucked with
by cops and repeatedly just like fucking the police up
over and over again.
Speaker 4 (10:54):
It's like an ouva bowl film, like where like one.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Kind of but it's like well done. Oh okay, it's
it's pretty well done. It's like it starts out and
you think it's just gonna be like a remake of
First Blood, like where you know the first Rambo, which
is like a better movie than people remember because the
sequels were so ridiculous. But in that movie, like Rambo's
(11:18):
a Vietnam vet and like he gets sucked with by
a local sheriff and then like runs off into the
woods and is just like killing cops from those woods
the whole time. So in this I was wondering, like
why they weren't doing that, because after he gets sucked
with one time, he just like continues to go back
and like find the movie just like finds ways for
him to interact with the cops. But it's actually smart
(11:43):
because it just repeatedly like recreates these scenarios we've seen
with like corrupt cops, like arresting someone, finding different ways
to like fuck someone up, or at one point they
like pull him over but like don't use their lights
and then they explain like it's because if the lights flash,
(12:04):
then their dash cam camera starts up and like they're we're.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
About to be corrupt, all right, And it's like I'm
lifting the hood of my car, Like that's the other
thing cops do is like they pull the hood up
to block the engine.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
To let the engine cool off a little bit. But
it's yeah, so it's just seeing this these scenarios we've
seen so many times in actual like police body cam
footage like played out in a way where the cops
kind of get fucked up is very satisfying, and I
(12:39):
feel like it could be its own genre of movie
of just like repeatedly showing people fucking up.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Hey, yeah, you know, you know it's better than real
police reforms movies where they taking it out of the
cops and then that will act as a salve for
us in our ailing society.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Yeah, and then it'll give people ideas of what to
do and they'll all get armed. So maybe not a
good idea, but it was very satisfied.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
I'm gonna I mean, like when you said I'm I'm
watching this, I mean just seem like a still poot.
I'm like, why is this guy intact gear like fighting
the cops and I'm like, okay, I'll ask last questions,
yeah and start watching more. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
His backstory is like that he trains the military on
how to like do hand to hand combat when you're
unarmed and they're armed, and like.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Have like escalate a situation premise.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Yeah, and so he's like anti weapon, Like he's like
kind of got Batman rules where he like won't use
a weapon on somebody. He's just like disarming them over
and over again.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Oh I love that shit.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Yeah, it's a blast. I highly recommend. But yeah, it's
just it was smart of them to be like, Okay,
these are thereforce scenarios, keep seeing over and over again. Yeah,
what is miles something you think is overrated?
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Overrated summer now that it's fall. And I have to say,
along with that is the food.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
I have two things.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
The first is just a parent thing that I think
all parents experience, which is like you get all these
like toys from relatives and stuff that are nice that
you think your kid is gonna play with, and they
just want to play with a fucking tube of toothpaste
for like days, and you're like, what about this nice
thing grandma got you that's made of like wood and
is like baby safe, and he's like, nah, dude, I'm
(14:38):
gonna keep trying to eat this hand sanitizer hand spray
bottle and like just like fuck with this forever very
I mean, in a way, bless their bless their imaginations
for making toys out of those things. But yeah, just
like with the season change on paper, because it's still
hot here. I did a thing last night, just like
(14:59):
when we were talking with Lydia, just getting into I'm
in Peepaw fall right now. Yeah, such a nice pork
stew last night that with I'm not in like these
mashed potatoes Jack, I put a fucking pound of butter
for it was three and a half pounds of potatoes,
one pound of butter, and it's just the perfect vessel
(15:22):
for the stew to sit upon, and I cut up some.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
It was just so fucking good.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
And anyway, I realized too, how much like food helps
bring like sort of in a sense, in a sensory way,
bring you into the next season because like the mood. Yeah, yeah,
because I did. I did on Saturday, I like grilled.
I was like, let me just get my last kind
of grill at not that I won't I'll stop grilling,
but like this felt like they're like, Okay, this is
kind of like, you know, we're getting into falling out
(15:47):
summer grill exactly fully into the stews. So I just
got to say, summer, it's been great. You were very
fucking hot this year in Los Angeles, and people who
knows what fall will look like. But now I'm realizing
I'm ready to wear sleeves. I'm wearing ready to wear
a hoodie. I'm ready to wear pants and I want
(16:08):
that very soon.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
And you're you're ready to wear sleeves, but you're just
for the listener. You're not wearing sleeves right now. You're
still wearing a cut off yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
And I have like cropped it's cropped too, like I
look like a linebacker from the eighties.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
To Belichick chic cut off sleeves hoodies.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
Yeah, wasn't that what he called them?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
They're called give ups like I give up, yeah, like
wearing like rocking the sweatpants and at times, but yeah,
I got my give ups on that's great.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
I'm like, I'll take that.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
I was listening to a sports podcast that was covering
like one of the rings NFL shows. I guess there's
other sports podcasts besides my Jack Mad Boosts. Right, So
I was just I just found out about this, so
I was just checking them out. But they were talking
about like coach expressions and like they were talking about
how like Mike Tomlin is always saying cut your eyelids off,
(17:04):
keep your eyes open, cut your eyelids off, players, and uh,
what's his name? From the Chargers. Harbaugh was like, I'm
gonna die leaning on my staff like Moses about like
his coaching staff.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Wow, trust, wow, Wow, this is this is great like
high level coach poetry. He's the son of the other Harbor.
Is that the deal?
Speaker 3 (17:29):
No, he's the brother of the other Harbor.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Oh wait, so they were Jim John Yeah, okay, got it,
got it, got it.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Jim was the Michigan, right, Jim is the Michigan and
now Chargers and now Chargers.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
Okay, okay.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
And people were like, so, how do you feel about
your like offensive coordinator's decision? And he was like, ah,
you know, call me Moses because I'm gonna die leaning
on my staff.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Yeah. I call him the staff al of Caucus because
they're deadly to others, you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (17:58):
You hear me, our tactics, man our place.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
Yeah hell yeah, but yeah, I don't know if they
have writers writing for them or if that's just like
a part of you have to have that like weird
gym teacher poetry in.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
The brain because it's like a pimp, you know what
I mean, Like and like the least problematic sense of
like you got to convince a group of people to
like ride for you and put their bodies on the line,
and you kind of need the gift of gap to
sort of be like, you know how like that old
player ship that like you got to make sure your
next move is your best move, you know what I mean,
Because I'm ready, like you know, like a referee with
(18:32):
a whistle like that kind of shit. I feel like, yeah,
you need those little isms that like kind of get
it that connect, because it's not enough to be like
wake the fuck up. Yeah yeah, and.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
You're like cut my eyelids off, exact, cut my and
you always don't close your eyes forever.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Yeah, everyone had terrible eye infections.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
They're like anyway, kind of with my this weekend, it
didn't go so well.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
A lot of pinky now, that's right.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
My overrated is old bagels I had bagels this weekend
a place to like bagels every couple hours. Old bagels
are overrated, fresh bagels underrated. I guess I'm just an
underrated kind of guy because this is clearly an underrated
disguised as an oprated. But I yeah, my like having
(19:22):
a fresh bait. I was like, I have not been
having bagels until now, like that. Any bagel that's not
freshly baked is such bad.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Yeah, it's so subpar. It's such bad pr for the
bagel brand.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Yeah, yep.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
You know, I've been reviving them with the toaster here
and there, but not close to what I experienced this weekend.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Yeah. Well, because you freeze them, like do you get
fresh ones and then you freeze them sometimes?
Speaker 3 (19:49):
Yeah, so we've done that before, or we get the
buy in the grocery store. It's just like a sponge
and it's like mostly just uh, it's.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Bagels taped bread. That's not a bagel like that you
buy at the store like that. It has to come
from dude.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
Like spongey from the preservatives.
Speaker 4 (20:07):
Have you had a sour dough bagel? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah from lady. Have you been to that spot?
Speaker 3 (20:13):
No, So I just so I'm a novice to this.
We were going to a place that last week, like
a friend's house where my kids are like taking a class,
and so last week they brought fresh bagels. So I
was like, I've had these bagels from this place Courage.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
Oh yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
So I went there and the weight was thirty minutes
to order, and then as I was waiting, someone who
had just reached the front was like, oh, also, it's
fifty minutes after you order for them to give you bagels.
So I wow. Went to a different place that was
called c A L I see, I think, and their
(20:55):
whole thing is just like we baked new bagels every
two hours and the whole shit, yeah, oh, I think
just like fresh baked any bread product is such a
is so different. Like my my favorite pizza place that
I've talked about on here before is Manco and Manco
on the Jersey Shore, And but I've like realized that
(21:16):
it goes bad within ten minutes of like getting out
of the oven. It doesn't like go bad, but it
just becomes pretty mediocre after that. And I feel like
if I granted every other pizza place that same grace,
I would probably still think Manco Omeco is the best,
but like it's I don't know, like that that makes
such a difference. Like yeah, because bread is a pham
(21:39):
so it's like naturally not going to.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Be it's the insane environment.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Yeah, like ten minutes after it comes out and like
achieves that form.
Speaker 4 (21:48):
So yeah, I like Courage.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
I like Bell's Bagels, I like Mary's Bagels, Layla Bagels.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Yeasts a bunch of places. Yeasty boy. Yeah that sounds
very I love a fun name. Also, Quick overrated your
ability to own a pigmy hippo in my moodang research,
I was searching pigmy hippo size to like find out
(22:17):
what their size would be full grown. And when I
put pigmy hippo s it auto completed to sale, and
oh god, that that worried me. So I would suggest
not owning, not trying to go out and buy your.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Own island right now, smuggle one back.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Yeah, they get to be up to like six hundred
to nine hundred pounds, and I'm just gonna say those Yeah,
I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
This is also a thing that I am now completely
unsure of any any research I do, because I am
realizing that the Google AI is Assistant is so fucking
bad at it.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
Length four to six feet, weight four hundred to six hundred.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Yeah, this thing fulls oh shit. Yeah, I don't want
nothing to do with that. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
One of them, I was like danger, pigmy hippo Danger,
and like one of them ate a antelope at a
zoo in Ohio. I think that's like killed an antio.
I don't know if it ate the whole thing, but.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
So all right, well I guess I'll put that dream aside.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
So that that's our those are our PSAs, ye, and
don't don't try and buy a pigmy hippo.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Hey, always wisdom from this show.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
That's right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back,
and we're back.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
We're back, man.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
My kids have like a little bit of a cough,
and this weekend I was having like a couple moments
where I was like, man, I've got RFK boys, like
my boy like has there's something on my vocal chord
or something. Yeah, there was like something where I couldn't
I've hadn't speak right for I.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Sound like like when I've I was at a wedding,
like maybe a few months ago, and I completely lost
my voice and I sounded like funk Houser from Curby Enthusiasm,
like super Dave Osborne, like it was like Larry like
it was. My vocal cords were shocked. Didn't quite get
to rf to shreddo Yeah, yeah, yeah, I couldn't. Could
not get like a full bodied voice out all right.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Well, amazingly, speaking of r f K h his being
investigated for desecrating Yeah, and up p s A. So
the p s A don't send nudes to r FK Junior. Okay, Okay,
I know it sounds like a good idea. Yeah, and
we were all tempted to do so, but I'm going
to explain why why not to? So he was being
(25:01):
investigated for desecrating a whale carcass, as we learned at
the end of last week, for the story where he
chainsaw the head of a whale off and put it
on top of his van. That didn't turn out to
be the biggest RFK Junior scandal of the week because
New York Magazines Olivia, Newsy, Nuzzy and used ez I
(25:24):
See was forced to take a leave after New York
magazine discovered that she allegedly had a personal relationship with
RFK Junior.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Okay, a personal relationships like their friends.
Speaker 3 (25:36):
Uh yeah, sorry, all right, I'm not allowed to have friends.
It was not physical, but it did involve the sending
of nude photos, which have repeatedly been described as demure.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Oh, very mindful, very demure. Yes, very very on point
with the use of the word demurre. It's happened such
a moment right now. Okay, so very demure, very mindful
nude photos. Yes, but they weren't having a physical relationship.
They were not having a physical relationship. She had written
a profile of him called that was titled the mind
Bending Politics of RFK Junior Spoiler Campaign, and it wasn't
(26:15):
like particularly flattering. I would say, like, sure, he seems
kind of like an asshole, Like he seems like real angry.
Throughout the profile.
Speaker 3 (26:26):
At one point they like hop in his van and
She's like, I honestly like couldn't stop from gagging, Like
this van is just like covered in dog hair and
smells terrible. I don't know if it's the same van
that transported the whalehead all those years ago, but it
sounds like it could be.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Dude, I'm gagging in your van is just like to
fucking wild as shit. Yeah, I love that he drives
a van, though, there's just something RFK Junior with his
like wacky anti vaxer shit whale chainsng love of you know, life.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
He should be writing around this stinky ass van.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
With no seatbelts because the dogs have chewed all the
seatbelts off. He just like runs around with a wild
pack of dogs. But like that comes off with somewhat
he kind of like So the drawing that goes with
the article makes him look like he's having some kind
of emotional breakdown inside a Doctor Seuss book and like
(27:26):
he's crying and there's like dogs, but it's like a
you know, a fun illustration. So that's because he does
just like burst into tears throughout the profile piece. Oh
and he just seems, yeah, like somewhat unstable. I remember
reading it and being like, Wow, this guy seems like
he's got a lot going on and shouldn't be the president.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Yeah yeah, no, not at all. That's not the kind
of guy. I don't even want to hang out with him.
So no, I don't. I means I wouldn't trust him
with anything outside of leaving me the fuck alone and
not having to do it intersected my life in any way. Yeah,
which and then she got fired. Is she fired?
Speaker 3 (28:05):
She's been put on leave because they said it like
poorly reflects on their you know, impartiality and you know,
all the stuff that journalism is supposed to care about.
Although she said it happened after the profile. So the
way that this apparently came out is that she sent
him the demure nude photos and he proceeded to brag
(28:30):
about that to so many people that it got back
to the editor of New York Magazine, who they do
not like. Uh so did you This is gonna seem
weird and based on your reporting, I can't imagine it's true,
but yeah, you And then she denied it, denied it,
(28:51):
and then came clean from HR.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
Right, that's why she's here. So that's what I'm just
gonna ask this to you.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
And this is I'm asking you this in the most
objective sense, Right, did you send nude pics to RFK Junior?
I can say that, right, Uh yeah, I mean that
makes sense. That's so when I read that, like, like
she only got busted because this dude was bragging about it.
I like, immediately, I was like, wait, there was something
(29:18):
about that in the Vanity Fair this guy's eating a
dead dog profile too, and I went back to find it.
And then this is another part. This is from that
Vanity therapiece quote. When Kennedy was married to his second wife,
Mary Richardson, he was known to text other damning images
to friends as well of nude women. Those friends assumed
Kennedy himself had taken the pictures, but they didn't know
(29:40):
whether the subjects had consented to having their genitalia photographed,
let alone shared with other people. When one friend lost
his phone, he panicked that somebody might discover the images.
So yeah, this is all this is. I know, lies
detected at this point.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Yeah, his campaign, for the most part is like he
only met Olivia Nutzi once in his life for an
interview which turned out to be a hit piece. And
if she wants to send him some demure nude photos, right,
you know what can he do?
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Hit piece and now rag about.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
Them to everybody?
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (30:19):
So he is married to Cheryl Hines from Curb Your Enthusiasm?
Any update on that as no updates as of yet, Babe, they.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
Were very demure, very mindful nudes. Okay, that that's account
for something.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
Yeah, I was annoyed by the whole demure thing just
because it seemed like people were really forcing it. But
now it just seems like people are going to use
it more in their vocabulary and it's a very fine word.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
So yeah, but I think I would say, like at
least a solid sixty percent of people don't know what
demuir means, right, Like it's just a way to describe
a vibe. But I hope people understand the modesty aspect
of Yeah, that's what I hope comes back to our society.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Well, speaking of the Trump campaign, because our kid Jringer
did endorse Donald Trump, we do like to check in
with the Trump campaign from first of all, from the
perspective of what's he selling these days?
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Yeah, what's what's he grifting on? Hell? Yeah, what do
you got for me?
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Man?
Speaker 1 (31:23):
How can how can I? How can you unburden me
of my dollars? Donald Trump?
Speaker 3 (31:27):
So every week it feels like there's some sub QVC
merchandise being uh sold and ridiculed online. So he has
recently announced that he's selling coins, claiming that it's the
only official coin designed by me. I love I love
(31:48):
the idea of Donald Trump taking graphic design courses and
like learning photoshops.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
And a design you will guess what's on it, so.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
You're never gonna I mean, this is pretty wild, Like
the guy's doing some next level thinking. It's on one side,
it's the White House with his signature with a big flag,
big flag over what's.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
It's like that half the width of the White House
is about how wide this fucking American flag is above it?
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Yes, yeah, it's a it's it would be a illogically
big flag where it actually sized that way. And then
like the it's in God we trust is written above
the top, but it like doesn't it looks cheap and
weird because it only has like it doesn't have all
the detailing of even a nickel, you know, right, Like
(32:38):
there's a lot of empty space in it, which makes
it weird. And then on the other side, the moneymaker,
we got Donald J. Trump across the top, and then
a picture of Donald Trump that looks like Ted Copple.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Yeah if Ted Copple was like flattened by a steamroller. Yeah, yeah,
that's what this is.
Speaker 4 (33:02):
This is exactly what this looks.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
Like very unflattering. So that's very mir very unflattering, very demure,
very very mindful.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
He's selling the coin for.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
One hundred dollars even though it contains around thirty dollars
worth of silver and perfect. Yeah, this is not you know,
as as you might have noticed from his sale pitch
that this is not the only Trump coin. This is
just the only official coin designed by Miame. There are
other Trump coins, these ones in gold, because he knows
(33:33):
that his followers love gold. Love of gold now.
Speaker 4 (33:39):
Asterisk and not made of real gold.
Speaker 3 (33:41):
Yeah, but these ones are like even more unflattering.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Yeah, like, so he should never be shown in profile,
even if it is for a coin that's like meant
to pump your own dick up and pretend you won
the elunction. There's like a Trump one challenge coin and
his profile he looks like Boss Nass from Phantom of
the Menace. He looks like Phantom of the Menace. Yep,
(34:10):
Phantom of the Phantom of the Opera Menace. H huh.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
Yeah, and the other one is just troubling, all the
images of him. What the silver one looks nothing like him,
and then the gold ones are seem like they would
be like very unflattering likenesses and perhaps the reason that
he felt the need to put his own coin out.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
And the other one, it looks like he's taking the
Elvis ship that seals your destiny.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
That's like, what is basically it's like.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
And you have taken the Elvis shit that seals your destiny.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Oh, thank you.
Speaker 3 (34:51):
So anyways, just we wanted to share this exciting opportunity,
investment opportunity with our listeners.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Now, let's soften that with a bit of polling.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
Well, and also explain why this might be the official
coin of the realm pretty soon. Because he so, he
is surging in polls. According to the latest New York
Times polling, he's going up in Arizona, Georgia, and North Carolina.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
And if Democrats lost all those states, it'll be bad,
Like it would be much more difficult for.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
The Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona. Kamala must win, Pennsylvania must win, Wisconsin,
must win, Michigan. Yeah. Yeah, it's there's it's it's it's
a it gets tricky there, It gets tricky there to
get to two seven.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
And if he's actually doing really well in those states,
he's probably doing much better than expected in other states.
Is usually how election results work, you know, the like
the states aren't completely distinct from one another. So this
is this is the first really bad polling for Harris
in a number of weeks. But the New York Times
(36:05):
polling has been a little bit to the right of
the overall averages over the past, you know, since before
the debate, and then this is the first poll that
like kind of seemed to return to that right word
lean since the debate. I've also I just want to
like note how I'm reading polls these days, because there's
(36:29):
this guy and ed Injermentum. Are you familiar with him. Yeah,
he's like a poll reader who is one of the
few people who got the polls right ahead of the midterm.
He was like one of the few people who was like,
I don't think it's going to be a red wave.
And one of the things that he was able to
pull out was basically that there's all these polls and
(36:51):
You've mentioned this off handedly before, but I just wanted
to like kind of focus in on it. There's all
these poles that are basically designed to generate the appearance
of support for Republican policies and Republican politicians. Yeah, because
they know it's like absolutely guaranteed that Fox News will
pick those up, like or you know one American News
(37:14):
confirmation bias.
Speaker 1 (37:15):
Baby, who's God for me?
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:18):
So basically, even though these are polls that are like, well,
we'll give them a C or like a C plus
or a B minus in like like five point thirty
eight takes all poles into account and just grades them differently.
And this guy basically predicted the midterm results by being like,
you actually shouldn't take those into account at all, you
(37:39):
should just leave them out. So his read has been
that she's like in a good position heading into the
final forty two days. Jesus, that's giving me fucking anxiety
the area. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
Yeah, I've been telling this motherfucker to take its fucking time,
and now we're forty two out, all right, Jackie Robinson,
that's right.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
But yeah, there's just all these garbage pull Like so
even since the mid term, there's like a bunch of
Twitter personalities and what he calls politics obsessed teenagers getting
into polling as a hobby, and like all of their
polls get averaged. You know, they have a small weight
on it, but they have enough of a weight that
(38:22):
they affect what like five thirty eight averages and models
look like, right, and so he was able to get
a more accurate read by just ignoring all of those.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
Yeah, well, I mean because what Nate Silver, he left
five thirty eight, right, He's like doing it own. He's
like doing a weird thing that people are like, what's
up with his polling? But yeah, I mean, I know,
like in Newsweek they were saying, you know, like they're like,
Nate Silver's model has Kamala Harris winning for swing states.
But it's not the swing states we were just talking about.
It was the ones that like Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Nevada
(38:56):
that are must wins in the event that you know,
North Carolina and Georgia aren't aren't going to turn out
the way it will. But yeah, I mean, I think there's,
like like you were saying, there is there's a lot
of confirmation bias that play with polling and like.
Speaker 4 (39:08):
How people hire polsters.
Speaker 1 (39:10):
Like so if you're working on you know, like a
ballot proposition and you have like a consortium of wealthy
donors who are the ones bankrolling the entire thing. You
need to check in with them to show them how
their money is being well spent. By that, I mean,
you show them polls that look good and be like,
oh my god, thanks so much. I know, we asked
for that extra hunter k blah blah blah. That's how
(39:30):
that translated. This Like here's some latest polling. Da da
da da da, and they go, oh, okay, here, here's
more money.
Speaker 4 (39:35):
Here's more money.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
So guess what you will hire polsters that can help
shape the reality a bit, you know, to keep your
dollars flowing or you you know, getting to you know,
you know, covered on Fox or One American News or whatever.
So it's always like there's a there's definitely a bit
of it. It's not the most objective thing because sometimes
(39:57):
polls aren't necessarily for us or to indicate to us
what's happening.
Speaker 4 (40:02):
Sometimes, like you need polls that.
Speaker 1 (40:03):
Are just meant to message things for other purposes too.
But yeah, yeah, and it's going to be close.
Speaker 3 (40:08):
Fact, they have an effect in the sense that they
like give people confidence that oh the foxest narrative that
they're talking about is the act actually reflective of how
people out there feel. You know.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
Yeah, and you also you do for considering how deflated
conservatives have been since the beginning of Brat summer and
all the weird oh shit they need they need to
see something that tells them they're still in the game and.
Speaker 3 (40:33):
Nothing weird about those numbers.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Yeah, and by all measures, like I just in the
same way, like Democratic voters are being told like a
lot is on the line, a lot is at stake,
the same is being told to conservatives in a much
freakier fucking way. But they're they're also trying to tap
into their like this, it's all on the line this November.
Get your ass out there, so you know, we'll see
(40:58):
forty two days though, and and Georgia is gonna make
it fucking very difficult. So speaking of Georgia, we've talked
about the Georgia Elections Board and the MAGA members of
that election board that like Donald Trump, like called out
by name at a rally, like we love them, notary folks.
They're gonna completely fuck the rat for us when it
comes to these election results. And they've altered the rules
(41:22):
to the point that like essentially this election board can
decide whether or not to certify election results uh oh.
And now it got worse somehow because over the weekend
it was reported they've changed the rules now, so millions
of ballots will have to be fucking hand counted. Jesus
hand counting. The handcover quote requires the poll manager and
(41:44):
two sworn poll officers to unseal ballot boxes, remove and
record the ballots, and have three poll officers independently count them.
And it's not like that they're saying, like you need
to record the results, just purely the number of ballots cast.
Speaker 4 (41:59):
It is what they're trying to go after, and.
Speaker 1 (42:00):
The process is so fucking convoluted it's like pointless to describe.
But essentially three people at each polling place are going
to handcount ballots independently to make sure like all three
arrive at the same number. They're like, what'd you get?
What'd you get? Like, ah, off by two uh oh,
over four million? Yeah, or another like if it's taking
(42:23):
too long, which is the point, the Elections Board will
take over and determine if and when to certify the
results of a given precinct or.
Speaker 3 (42:31):
The Elections Board, which is very pro Trump, Yes.
Speaker 4 (42:34):
They have a Trump majority.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
Who is they are doing things that are extra legal
they are doing. They are not a legislative body. They
are an administrative body, so they're but they're saying like, oh, well,
now we're going to decide, you know, like we are
the b all end all and everyone's like, you can't
do that, and that's I'm like, our system's so fucking flimsy.
Speaker 4 (42:53):
If three assholes can just be.
Speaker 1 (42:55):
Like, no, we're changing it and now I'm in charge
and fuck you and there's no remedy to that, then
this Holy shit. I thought, you know, I thought this
was gonna get sorted, but no, here we are. And
you know, I think we've said this before because there's.
Speaker 4 (43:11):
Republicans like we need a hand count or whatever.
Speaker 1 (43:13):
That is one of the most I mean, like, I guess,
the most inaccurate way to count something unless you were
like blindfolded and on like acid or something and you
were told these were snakes you were handling, maybe you
get a more like a less accurate count. But machines,
So why machines fucking work here? And there were no
issues with these existing systems previously. But again, this is
(43:36):
all happening because this is the playbook for this election,
and there is a murky figure behind this elections board
like sort of the like a group of very willing
elections officials across the state of Georgia.
Speaker 4 (43:49):
She was like, she's like very close to Trump.
Speaker 1 (43:51):
She was actually on the line on that same phone
call when Trump was asking Brad Rathensberger to find some
more votes. Yeah, so there's like as an you cheat
on this and make me president. Yes, she was like
on the phone for that call, like on the Trump side.
And now she has an entire infrastructure in place of
elections official that will basically do whatever they can to
(44:12):
cause as much chaos as possible and delay the results.
The Attorney General of Georgia is like, this seems like
a little bit too far. But whether or not that
is going to translate to any kind of legal remedy,
I'm not sure. Forty two days away jesus.
Speaker 3 (44:30):
Yeah, in other countries, like they know the results the
night that the election happens, in real time based they're
just like, uh and yeah, we have a winner like
right away. But in the US, yeah, this is gonna
George is gonna take days like maybe like weeks by
design because they want to give the Rats as much
(44:50):
of a chance to fuck.
Speaker 4 (44:52):
I think they have a six day period to count
Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1 (44:55):
And the fact that it's not happening sooner again is
because if you slow down the map from turning blue
or red in certain places for an audience that has
been fed a steady diet of election result denihilism, it's
just gonna it will help put roots down in their
minds that wait a second, is it happening again? Ye,
(45:19):
if it isn't an out, if it isn't a total blowout,
or if you know, Trump just drastically overperforms too, and
it's we got twenty sixteen Michael Jordan cry face on
the way.
Speaker 3 (45:30):
I do feel like he's going to do better than
like the MSM narrative of the past twenty days.
Speaker 1 (45:35):
It's too it's too cocky, Like yeah, it's weird, Like
I know that they're they're terrible at covering Donald Trump,
but they also are so dismissive to be like, and
we've won. Look at them. They're a mess. But yeah, also, like,
don't count out the fact that there are a lot
of wealthy people that are putting tons of money and
(45:56):
also to try and help Trump win, and add to
that all these fucking creeps out here who are just like, yeah, man,
I'll fucking I'll put my finger on the fucking scale.
Speaker 4 (46:06):
I don't care even if I am indicted.
Speaker 3 (46:09):
Yeah, yeah, I feel I feel like I don't know.
But either way, like it's important to stay focused on
the information that actually matters and not a smoke screen
of like people who are just horny for Hannity to
say their name or the name of their pulling outlet.
But yeah, like the stuff with the Georgia election board
(46:30):
feels like it's gonna matter. And then like the actual
pulling that seems to be suggesting he's doing better than expected. Uh,
probably need to pay attention to that too.
Speaker 2 (46:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (46:40):
Well, it's just tough too, because like he and I
think you are alluding to this in something you're reading
that I wrote, is that like his playbook isn't to
appeal to anyone aside from like the like the biggest
low lifes. Yeah, Whereas like Democrats are like they're not
doing the thing that energizes progress, like their entire base
(47:03):
of voters. They're like, if we just fucking curl up
into a ball, maybe no one will notice anything that
we're not changing this situation in the country, And we
can just get through this, rather than like Joe Biden
even was you remember when they're like, yo, this motherfucker
fdr to electric bogloo when he was running in twenty
(47:24):
twenty with like some of the policies, Like these policies
aren't e fucking close. They're like, yeah, man, yeah, more
money for the cops, baby, uh, less money for people?
Speaker 4 (47:33):
All right, any questions? Yeah, all right, great, Yeah, the
see November.
Speaker 3 (47:39):
The stuff that the mainstream media like points to as
like disqualifying, like his racism, willingness to say anything, just
seems to strengthen his appeal with a lot of the
people who are already interested in voting for him. And
then and then the mainstream media pointing it out like
I don't know what you're supposed to do in this case,
(47:59):
but that also seems to make people happy because it's
like triggering the the Libs. But yeah, on the Democratic side,
it just feels like we're watching them try to like
balance between different positions that won't offend this party, and
you know, like right, because they are for a status
(48:19):
quo that the people voting for them aren't actually happy with,
and so it just it's a disadvantage.
Speaker 1 (48:27):
On a macro level, Like this is where I'm like,
these people are so stupid. Ask any normal person who
has a regular existence like a job and a family
or a debt or whatever, I would tell I'd wager
eighty percent of people are like, man, this shit can't
continue the way it's going. Yeah, like the way my life,
(48:47):
how chaotic my life feels, how you know, stretched thin
I feel without any help, without any kind of relief.
Speaker 4 (48:54):
This isn't sustainable.
Speaker 1 (48:56):
And the fact that that is so that's permeating throughout
the zeitgeist and through people's like minds and not being
addressed in sort of like you can activate something that
a huge, a large amount of people are feeling right
now that quite can't articulate it. But the fact that,
like to your point, it's like, well, we're kind of
here to defend that shitty status quo.
Speaker 4 (49:16):
It's like, dude, you're ugh, this isn't it's not energizing.
Speaker 1 (49:20):
This fucking freaks out here being like they're eating pats
and they're fucking jacking off to this nonsense. It's fucking wild.
Speaker 4 (49:27):
And like here it's like, hey man, we have like.
Speaker 1 (49:30):
Like the most regressive immigration plan we've had as a
party in a long time. Uh sure, yeah, excited. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (49:38):
Trump is also, by the way, for a status quo
in all the important ways that would impact people's day
to day lives. Like he's going to do things that
benefit the extremely wealthy, but just.
Speaker 4 (49:51):
For that group of people.
Speaker 3 (49:52):
Yeah, yeah, for that group of people that don't care.
They just he can say whatever wild ass thing pops
into his head and they're going to enjoy it as
long as it makes people say that's that's a terrible
thing to say.
Speaker 1 (50:06):
Exactly, because again, those people are also dealing with their
stressed out, unhappy lives too. But it's the remedy to
that is manifesting in a very different way, which is like, yeah, man,
fucking everyone's gonna cry. And that's that sort of level
of destruction, Like I mean, will be who will come
to pass if things don't anyway. Yeah, we'll see, we'll see.
(50:30):
We'll see, man, we'll see, we'll see, we will see.
Speaker 3 (50:33):
Let's let's take one more break and we'll come back
and talk some pop culture stuff.
Speaker 2 (50:37):
We'll be right back, and we're back.
Speaker 1 (50:48):
We're back, and.
Speaker 3 (50:50):
Uh at the box office, let's check in with the
bo Beetle Juice. Beetle Juice continues to be baffo was
number one. Still I'm going tonight. It's legging out. It's
it's got legs the trades.
Speaker 4 (51:09):
Is are they saying it's legging out?
Speaker 1 (51:11):
Oh it's a leggy box office boffo.
Speaker 3 (51:14):
Okay, So it was number one of the box office
for a third weekend in a row, chopping topping the
new Transformers movie Transformers one, which our writer JM was like, wait,
what there's a new Transformers movie. Yeah, my kids were
acutely aware they were locked in on this ship.
Speaker 1 (51:35):
Yeah it's live action.
Speaker 3 (51:38):
No, it's animated.
Speaker 1 (51:40):
And oh it's not computer animated. That's why your kids
know about it, and the fucking drug using adults don't
know about it.
Speaker 3 (51:47):
That's right, Yeah, which isn't fair because I'm sure it
would be fun to watch on drugs. The animation is
pretty cool in moments.
Speaker 1 (51:55):
Oh really, Yeah, it's.
Speaker 5 (51:57):
Like Spider Man level interesting, like King with the Okay, no,
just like not like it kind of has a unique
style and it sticks with it and there's just like
some cool action sequences where they take advantage of the
fact that they don't.
Speaker 3 (52:12):
Have to like make this look like it's happening in reality.
It's made by the director of Toy Story four, which
you know that movie. I really enjoyed that movie and
the overall. Yeah, so I took my kids to see
it this weekend. Only fell asleep for like fifteen minutes. Yeah,
(52:35):
my kids absolutely loved it.
Speaker 4 (52:37):
I thought they fell asleep.
Speaker 3 (52:39):
I no, No, I only fell asleep for fifteen minutes.
Speaker 4 (52:43):
Was it which should they wake you up? Or did
you do that thing? We're like, oh, ship up in
a sleep?
Speaker 1 (52:47):
Yeah, the latter.
Speaker 3 (52:49):
And when I told them that I was asleep for
a portion of it because they were asking me a
question that I couldn't answer.
Speaker 1 (52:56):
About what happened? Like that what happened?
Speaker 3 (53:02):
But I, yeah, it's a very good execution of what
it is. But I expected this movie to do badly
from the second I saw the first trailer because it
like takes place on their home, like on the Transformer
home planet, like in a Transformer's world where they like
it's just like Transformer v. Transformer fighting, like bug aliens
(53:26):
mixed in and there's just like a ton of moving
parts and like it's not even clear like what the
steaks are or like what what's haed Like you kind
of have to be familiar with Transformers lore, and the
animation does take like a little getting used to, and
my kids fucking loved it. I ate too many Jlopago
peppers with my popcorn and haven't felt right since.
Speaker 4 (53:50):
With each kernel.
Speaker 3 (53:52):
Basically, oh man, that I don't recommend that I like.
As much as I enjoy it, I need to stop
doing it because it really fucks me up. Stach, Oh yeah,
but it does. It does feel like a movie where
the IP is weighing it down, like if they had
taken a similar story and like put it in a
world that wasn't Transformers and just like simplified it without
(54:17):
like all the lore and you know the things you
have to do because you're telling a Transformers movie. I
feel like it might have done better.
Speaker 1 (54:26):
I wonder how it did in China, though, which I
felt like has become the biggest audience for Transformers films,
like the last few.
Speaker 3 (54:32):
Ones disappointing both in America and overseas. I don't know
if it's opened in China yet. I can't imagine Beetlejuice.
Beetlejuice is doing well in China right because don't they
not fuck with ghosts.
Speaker 1 (54:46):
Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (54:47):
Yeah, I always heard that as an explanation for why
the Star Wars movies don't do well in China.
Speaker 1 (54:52):
Yeah, but Beetlejuice is like a fucking you know, a creep. Yeah, yeah, ghost.
Speaker 3 (55:01):
Yeah that's true. He's just you know, he's real piece
of shit. But yeah not now my kid, like I
fucked up. Basically I shouldn't have taken my kids to
see this movie because now they're like, all they want
to do is see the Michael Bay Transformers movie, which
I had managed to not see a single like one
(55:21):
of those end to end.
Speaker 1 (55:22):
Then they'll have a formative memory that of Megan Fox
working on an old car. Yeah ah wow, to be
young again and have that be the movie or like
and I had, I had a crush on Megan Fox
from this old Transformers movie.
Speaker 4 (55:37):
Right, what an age?
Speaker 1 (55:38):
What an age?
Speaker 4 (55:39):
What an era?
Speaker 3 (55:41):
Anyways, it does feel like, I don't know, the the
IP stuff is obviously working in some cases right inside
out to Beetlejuice too. It's like a real uh summer
for Part two movies.
Speaker 1 (55:55):
I feel like the.
Speaker 3 (55:56):
Parts Parts two are killing it. But it does feel
like we're at some end point, and like movies made
by independent filmmakers on like cheap budgets are going to
have to start coming out and replacing what is being
lost in the current studio system.
Speaker 1 (56:17):
It's just a matter of like where.
Speaker 3 (56:18):
People are going to go see those because now like
Sony owns the Alamo Draft House, and like even the
independent theaters are kind of being owned. And you know
that there were there were monopoly laws about like distribution
and studios owning distribution methods, and those are kind of
gone away.
Speaker 4 (56:38):
Losers.
Speaker 1 (56:38):
Man, yeah, fuck the paramount decrees. Man, yeah, yeah, we
can all agree.
Speaker 3 (56:44):
I think we can all agree on this.
Speaker 1 (56:45):
I think I think look, Maga Democrat, we can all
degree all degree, we can all agree, agree, agree, Fuck
the paramount.
Speaker 4 (56:54):
I gotta go.
Speaker 3 (56:56):
That's been our time, folks, our brains shutting down.
Speaker 2 (57:00):
It's early.
Speaker 3 (57:02):
We are back tomorrow with the whole last episode of
the show. Until then, be kind to each other, be
kind to yourself, get the vaccine, get your flu shots,
don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we will talk
to all tomorrow.
