Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of trend
Shaka Laca because we're having a late nineties little bit
of a I guess that was the early nineties episode today,
that one courtesy of First Blood five twenty two. My
name is Jack o'brianon. I'm thrilled to be joined in
our second seat by the hilarious, the talented, wonderful stand
(00:21):
up comedian. It's Ello.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
It's me on Trending. I gave Miles a new strain
of COVID that's never been produced.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Both they saw. They're baffled. The authorities are baffled.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
They have no they actually want to study my brain.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
M That's how you came up with that sick, twisted.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Shit fucking crazy.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
We were trying out some different things, like I was
wondering why sister hasn't caught on the same way that brother, Brother,
Hey brother, how you doing.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
We're just to say it. It's just it just feels weird.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
It feels it feels very like in the same way
that like certain people when they say brother, they sound
like a Christian youth minister. They're like, hey brother, how
are you doing?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Like sister, there's about to be a hand placed on
my shoulder. You know. Yeah, hey, sister, anticipatory cringe, as
the psychologist call it.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
They do call it that. That's the number one problem
I had. There was a slightly older friend of my
nine and seven year old over at our house and
I heard him explaining to them like that. He was like,
I don't do that, that would be cringe. And they
were like, well, what does that mean? And he was like,
it's like a thing that older girls say to you,
(01:46):
you like, do something that isn't cool.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Waits, that's good. That's me little boys to think exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
He's just like, O good, it's great. Kid's nineteen years old.
All right. This is the episode where we tell you
some of the stuff that is trending on this Wednesday,
December tenth, pol. Yeah, you might have. You might have
noticed this because you're you're a pretty big Maga supporter. No, yeah,
you know, I'm huge.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Did you say magnet supporter?
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Yeah, you love magnets. It's crazy. A magnet mag trains
magnets on the fridge, doesn't matter one way or another.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Magnet ruining my laptop whatever, you know.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Brand the editor is a big Magma supporter. He likes
lava before it gets to the surface.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
It does make you want to lick it.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
It's it's a depressing time in this country right now,
not for any of the reasons that people want to
talk about. The economy bround, you know, fascist police forces
invading cities and kidnapping people and not telling you where
they're taking them. No, the thing that's rough is you
(03:01):
hate to see the right turn on each other, you.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Know, so if they can't make it.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Exactly, it's like it's like when we found out Tom
Cruise and Nicole Kidman broke up.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
What Who's gonna have the post Nicole pictures? Remember those
pictures where she's like, I'm free after signing the divorce papers. Yeah, yeah,
it's gonna be Candace.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Maybe Candace, I don't know. She seems like pretty troubled.
Buy a lot of different conspiracy theories. But all right,
So the latest beef my Lea Annapolis went on I believe, Yeah,
George Santos and Tim Poole's podcast, so some people some
people are getting together.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
George Santos has a podcast with Tim Poole.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Tim Poole like proven Russia Asset, Tim Poole.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Bayest and Straightest people.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
You can think just wear my beanie indoors. It's July.
What what do you want? Don't look, I've showered in
two weeks. So he came on and had some thoughts
on Benny, my infant nearly died in a drug fire
(04:18):
after mass shootings. Johnson, you did not have me back
on this.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
And do you know about when I was on with Miles.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
And that first happened.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
No, he played the clip and I like literally was
just laughing on on the podcast for half an hour.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Yeah, well he's back. He's back, Paulvy. You will be
happy to know. We're in the midst of doing our
countdown to the top fifteen stories of the year that
we covered on TDZ and that story may or may
not have come up on the fact that I was
out that day. You were filling in for me, and
(04:58):
you might get name dropped in that. But so Miloianopolis
another like kind of a blast from the past, this
is just he washed Mega Influencer podcast. George Santos, Tempoole,
and Miley Napolis were on and Milo was like, I'll
tell you one thing that's weird about the right Miley Aanopolis,
who I think is openly gay, or like was openly
(05:22):
gay and now things to have been converted has come
through and said that Benny Johnson, and this is something
that there's been rumors of, is uh, you know, despite
the fact that he's constantly posting pictures of his human
wife and real children, is actually gay?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Wait, why'd you whisper it like that?
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Because I'm I'm someone's parent.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Ethnicities to.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
But uh, I'm not going to play the clip because
it's sped up at like two x speed for some reason,
I guess just because that's the only way anybody could
get through it. But he claims that Benny's wife was
drunk at the bar at Sass, which I don't know
exactly what that is. I'm sure we've talked about it before,
(06:17):
but it's not coming to me at the moment. Was
drunk at the bar at SaaS three years in a row,
crying about how her husband was upstairs with men at
the hotel. So that's, you know, not the most shocking thing.
Bennie Johnson just responded with a picture of his family.
Was like been a.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Thing though, right, Like he's not allowed to go to
conferences by himself or whatever, like because he hooks up.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
With guys allegedly allegedly she's alleged no, you have to
say the allegedly part out loud.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
He allegedly shots Grinder down at Republican Gone.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Melts the Grinder app, melch the app. And then there's
Nick Fuentes, who I hadn't heard much about his sexuality,
the Latino Latino influencer, Latino influencer. N that's that's a
great way to describe him.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Virgin gay Latino, allegedly.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Hitler loving mic Roman who is like the right. The
Republican Party are are not thrilled with him because he
you know, some of them openly welcome his open Nazi support.
Others are like, we're not We're not like actually the
Nazi Party and feel like subtle T shirts still be
(07:49):
a thing. But anyways, he went on Peers Morgan, why
are we just.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Going through nightmare blunt rotations?
Speaker 1 (07:57):
They're my all my sleep, this demon I know, just
some of the worst people getting together and just like bickering.
But I do want to play this interview because it
revealed ap Peers is like, so you're not gay, which
I don't know. This is a weird line of questioning.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I don't well No, it's a it's a that's also
a rumor.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
That's a rumor that's going around. Okay, yeah, that.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Nick Fintas And like Destiny, who do you know who
Destiny is? He's like a he's a quote unquote liberal streamer.
He's pro Israel. He supposedly interview or debated like with
Alan Dershowitz. Again, I think it was. Yeah that so
(08:41):
apparently there are rumors that like job or something.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
I don't so, so okay, that's helpful context for this
interview where we just learned a little bit more than
we ever wanted to know about Nick quent you online. Yeah,
so okay, here's the lore.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
One of the many theories. You have no idea what
the answers, and you haven't got to answer. But are
you actually attracted to women?
Speaker 4 (09:10):
I am attracted to women?
Speaker 1 (09:11):
You're gay?
Speaker 4 (09:13):
No, women are very difficult to be around.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
So h and do you think they should have the
right to vote?
Speaker 4 (09:23):
I do not know? Absolutely not, absolutely not. Well yeah
absolutely So.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Basically you're just a misogyn is all done? So there
aren't he for a for a young guy? I mean,
I know I'm the boom.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I know, I'm the seems like this is where it's
going to end. But it actually all women am All
women are annoying.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
All women grow old, they all get fat, says the guy.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Have you ever had sex? No?
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
No, absolutely not, Like is an accusation.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
This evil little twink. I I feel like he fits
that stereotype of evil white twink. So eyebrows went up
when he when they were like when Pierce was like,
do you are you attracted to women? And he was like, ah, yeah, definitely,
I love their boobs and their behenes. But his whole
(10:22):
thing about him not getting laid. In the interview, he
talks about how he advocates for marriage even though he
like shits on women constantly to his male audience.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
But that's he seems like you'd be a great partner.
So it's weird.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Yeah, very loving, generous partner. But that's like a thing
that's happening with the people with young men who are
listening to these alpha male influencer nazi influencer people is
that they're like totally like distanced themselves from having actual
relationships even like they they don't want to like interact
(10:56):
or have they're like focus on yourself. King, like these
bidgeons are going to hold you down, like you know
that sort of thing.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
So great advice.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah. So it's like he ca he within that same interview,
he called himself an in cell. He said he was like,
hat is a virgin, but he has like people sliding
into his dms all the time. But he's gonna wait
for marriage till later. But he encourages his follow it's
so like contradictory to how he lives his life.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
And paying a coherent picture of an actual sexual being
more of like a series of postures that's being taken
up to conveniently.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Yeah. Yeah. And it's also like he also later says like, yeah,
well I tell them to marry women, you can like
make them lose weight and like basically break their spirits.
But you know, like it's fine. That's still straight of me.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Yeah, yeah, that's what dudes do. You're in nineteen thirty five. Wait,
what also said.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
That women want to be raped and want to get
beat up, Like he talked about rape fantasies, but the
way he presented it was like they want to be raped.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Damn. That sucks for women that he's not h actively
pursuing them. He sounds like a catch like.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Yeah, no, it's pretty Yeah, I don't know. And then
he claims that the reason he's not getting married is
because he's a target, so he doesn't want his family
to go through that. And I'm like, you sound like
you want whoever whatever woman's nearest to you to suffer
as much as.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Possible, right, Yeah, that, But but he's heroic when it
comes to, you know, not not pulling. I don't want
to pull the love of my life into this. Yeah, yeah,
I mean that is you know, when you're thinking about marriage,
the first thing you got to think about is like,
what does this do to my security profile?
Speaker 2 (12:49):
You know, like, will she get me docs? What's opsit
I throw her body in front of mine at any
gift of Yeah, exactly?
Speaker 1 (12:56):
What's the op sex situation here? How does this affect
my opps?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I hate fat women. But she also can't lose too
much weight, and she won't be able to guard.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
You, easy to shoot around. Yeah, let's take a quick break.
We'll cover other stories than this. I promise we'll be
right back. Oh God, hand to her back, and Polly,
(13:29):
we got a little bit of good news, We got
a little bit of continued.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
You threatened me with a good time Jack.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
More momentum for Democrats who focus on affordability and oppose
Donald Trump's policies. For the first time since nineteen ninety seven,
a Democrat was elected mayor of Miami. I would have
thought it was like a tradition to Miamy. We're going
to Miami again. Yeah, just for the look, I don't
(14:00):
don't light it. Some of the best bars in the
of all the time, not in Miami in the song
Welcome to Miami. And you know, Republicans are trying to
claim this is a democratic city, like that's this is
just what happens. It first time since nineteen ninety seven,
since the year.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
I don't even know about because I'm so young.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
And yeah, like before either of us were born politics.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Before we were even a twinkle in our parents' eyes.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
I was having a midlife crisis in nineteen ninety seven.
But and she's not like a Democrat who like taxed
to the right and just tricks people into I know. Also,
the very first female mayor was elected. Uh not by
being like, look at my gun collection. I'm a Democrat,
(14:49):
but you can trust me. I hate gay people. She's
a Democrat who did this wild thing where she opposed
the Trump administration's immigration policy. Instead of being like, I
too don't want anybody who's brown in this country, she
opposed the immigration policy and she focused on something called affordability.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
What is even that I've never heard.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
What does even that mean?
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Like affording me affordability?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
As far as I'm told.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Credit card debt is that something?
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Yeah, it's this is a hoax and fake news according
to Fox News. But they're just like, yeah, of course
they win in Miami, and it does like it does
make sense. They would claim that because I did assume
that Miami would, like many you know, major metropolitan areas,
would have democratic politics. But no, not since ninety seven.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Also, like I thought that, like I thought a lot
of the population, like even the Latino population in Miami
voted Republican because of.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Like the Cuban population does.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Yeah, socialism scare sort of thing.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yeah, they did not vote Republican this time. She won
by ten points over a candidate, Amelio Gonzalez, who was
supported by Donald Trump and meetball Ron DeSantis. Trump endorsed
him twice on truth Social spelling his name incorrectly both times,
(16:23):
didn't get it right once Amelio Gonzalez, Amelio Gonzalez.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Did he ever spell Zorn's name correctly?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Maybe after the meeting. I think he got it once,
he got it tatted on the heart.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Donald Trump also had a bit of a Miles has
been pointing out that you can kind of track his
cognitive behavior by when it is in the day, like
as the sun goes down. And this is there is
a thing with people with dimension called sundowning, where you know,
(16:58):
anybody who has worked with the l early is like
they talk about sundowning, which is when as the day
goes on, their brains get exhausted, they start getting very
frustrated with the you know, with being inside a brain
that isn't functioning properly.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
But also this presents itself in Donald Trump's brain as racism,
which means his brain is also a sundown town.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
He just gets more racist against like black people, Somali's
as the day passes.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
His brain becomes a sundown town. From the nineteen well,
there still are some, yeah, but his I feel like
it's particularly regretsive. Yeah. Yeah, There's little white children hitting
a hoop with a stick as they run down the
middle of a dirt road. But so last night he
had just a real long rant on truth social where
(17:55):
he continued to fixate on his cognitive ability for some reason,
don't know what that first he went through and was like,
my hours are the longest, and my results are among
the best. I've created the greatest economy of the in
the history of the country, brought business back into the
United States, rebuilt our military, created the largest tax Just
(18:16):
like making shit up and then.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
Thinking of that, sounds like a villain from Loki. My
hours other longest.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
My hours are the long I actually have more time
in my twenty four hour day than you do. In
addition to all that, I go out of my way
to do long, thorough and very boring medical examination at
the great Walter Reed National Medical Military Medical Center, seen
and supervised by top doctors, all of whom have given
me perfect marks. Some have even said they have never
(18:44):
seen such strong results. I have done something that no
other president has done on three separate occasions, the last
one being recently, by taking what is known as a
cognitive examination, something which few people would be able to
do very well, including those working at the New York Times,
and I aced all three of them in front of
large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I
(19:07):
do not know.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
The doctors called me a medical miracle, saying that it
was impressive I could walk around with my brain being
in the state that it.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Is exactly like you do not like to brag that
you're taking takenical.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Students and examiners from all over the world.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
To brag that you're taking cognitive exams in front of
like entire teams of doctors that you don't know, who
are all just like and they look on with great
concern and going saying.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
They've never seen a brain so smooth.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
And when I say, why did you just say? Oh no,
When I answer the thing, they're saying, oh, because you
you broke the record for being the best.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
And then they give me a lollipo.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
There's no such thing as perfect marks on a test
that is meant to determine whether or not you have dementia.
That's just like me.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
It's like the ADHD tests were like, if you fail,
you pass.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
You know, if you fail, you now have access to stimulants.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Maybe they were like, you tested positive and he misinterpreted that.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Right, They say, I have I'm giving some of the
most positive tests. They said this country.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
They said, I am serving.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
I am serving add complicated by profound dementia. I mean,
they said, I'm basically the smartest person on the planet.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
Giving Louis body syndrome. They like my body.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
I don't know why. I will know when I am
slowing up, but it's not now after all the work
I've done with medical exams, cognitive exams and everything else.
The work he has done with medical exams research.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Yeah, he's like distributed scientifically prime.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
The editor said, it's like saying you got an eighty
on your AIDS test, and then he claimed that it's
treason us for anybody, including the New York Times, to
say that the president of the United States is lacking
in any mental capacity. If you think he's stupid, you
(21:14):
should actually be hanged for that.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Okay, they said my blood type was A plus very good.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
So I don't know. It just seems like the sun
is going down. The sun is low in the sky,
and it's rarely, in my experience, the sun rarely reverses
directions starts going up again. So we'll see. And I
may be hunting for this opinion a long time. Yeah,
(21:45):
And Finally, we got to do our check in with
the box office because it is in keeping with our
year long trend of haunted creepy trend. Sydney Sweeney dominating.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
He said, wanted creepy dolls. At the same time, I said, Sidney.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
She does kind of give haunted creepy doll.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Yeah, like that meme of her being a bigot or
whatever that they're trying to were she just staring off
into the distance.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
I've got good Janes, listen.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
She actually is very beautiful, has amazing She's very beautiful.
But I wish she would say either less or more, you.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Know, m hm or not. I leave that there. I'll
just leave that there at all. But we're not talking
about that particular haunted doll. We're talking, of course, about
the trend. It's just funny to read the box office
reports when they're like and the Annabelle franchise comes to
a close with like shockingly high numbers, then they're like
(22:50):
five nights at Freddy's two comes in and doubles what
we expected it to do. It's like, people love haunted dolls.
Give me some haunted doll in this case.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Is animatronic, and it was the same haunting doll. It
was just haunted for good. You know. Yeah, we love
dolls that come to Megan. That's a gay icon.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Yeah. Megan actually fucked up this trend a little bit
this year by dropping an absolute turkey on us. But
apparently that one just wasn't good.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
Although I enjoyed it.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Fy Ni Freddy Too, Fine Nite Freddy Too. Is supposed
to be dog shit and it did sixty million at
the box office. They were coming in being like, man,
this movie might even make like thirty to forty million.
It's crazy. It did sixty three million. It broke all
the like. This is supposedly box office dead zone the
week after Thanksgiving, nobody releases movies there, and they they
(23:46):
dropped it on all of our asses. Fine Nite Freddy Too,
And it was fucking massive, almost as if Hollywood is
bad at estimating how much people want to go to
movie theaters and actually see movies.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Jack, I have a pitch for you. Get ready, Yeah,
I'm a gotcha terrorist?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Yes, yeah, no, absolutely, just keep doing like I think obviously,
Five Nights of Freddy's is a massive game franchise, right
you just and I think it's also like drawing power
from the fact that like people have been seeing on
the internet, like all those videos of like melting ferbies
(24:29):
and ship you know, or like what looks like without
the face on. Like that's all we're seeing, right eye, Oh,
we're going online and see. But you've seen like the
like just creepy animatronics. You've never seen atronics.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
But like, I haven't seen a trend lately of ferbies melting.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Right, No, not lately, but we it's it's in there.
It's lockdown our.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Brain the boo boo thing too, because I'm getting ferbie
flashbacks with the boo boos.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Yes, absolutely, this is the other part of our trend.
Might also be making an appearance on our top fifteen
stories of the year. Is like the la booboo craze
peaked this year and again my ear to the streets
when it comes to seven year olds. My seven year
old came home and was like, Okay, there's this new
thing called the boo boos. One of the kids in
(25:17):
our school has it. And the one he has turned
its head and looked at me and smiled, and I
was like, fuck, I wish I could tell you that
didn't happen. But Honestly, man, I'm too scared of any movies,
too fucking scared.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Every time there's like a trend like this where it's
like a kind of fuzzy sort of toy, that is
a huge deal. I always think of that picture from
like some Judge Judy type show where the divorced couple
are separating their beanie baby collection.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Do you guys, Yeah, that's oh. We talk about that
a lot. I mean, that's one of them. That wasn't
court TV. That was like just a that was a
picture from an actual divorce settlement. Makes it worse like
that wasn't It wasn't for TV. It is how shit
was going down at that point in time.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Like anytime anybody collects things, That's what I think of.
I'm just like, No, the kids are being torn apart.
Do they switch custody? What's happening?
Speaker 1 (26:13):
All right, Paulay, that's that's plenty. We're going to come
back tomorrow. Shut the fuck up, friend, Paula. Thank you
so much for filling in for Miles after you poisoned him.
Where can people find you? Follow you, go see you
all that good stuff?
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Well, obviously you'll always find me poisoning miles. That's my
first passion and hobby, and I would say career at
this point.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
And then.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
I run two monthly shows in LA now. One is
called Second Screens Comedy and it is a show where
you are encouraged to be on your phone, be on
your laptop, be an ADHD head. At our first show,
we passed around a bag of gru grasps for people
to touch if they got over stimulated, and it's super fun.
(27:04):
We do like online bits. We took a which Disney
Princess are you quiz and it turns out our entire
audience and all the performers were Tianas together, so that
was sweet. And that's on the fourteenth of January. On
the seventeenth, I will be at Sketch Best with my
South Asian improv teams in the batties and with Facial
(27:27):
Recognition Comedy that's in the Bay Area FF. And then
on the twenty third of January, we have Facial Recognition
Comedy back in LA and we also have one in
on the nineteenth of December. So the show's in LA
and FF and I'm going to be touring again. Ll me, okay,
thank you.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
All right, We're back tomorrow with the whole ast episode
of the show. Until then, be kind to each other,
be kind to yourselves, get your vaccines where you still
can't get your flu shots, don't do nothing about white supremacy,
and we will talk to you all tomorrow. By The

Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of trend
Shaka Laca because we're having a late nineties little bit
of a I guess that was the early nineties episode today,
that one courtesy of First Blood five twenty two. My
name is Jack o'brianon. I'm thrilled to be joined in
our second seat by the hilarious, the talented, wonderful stand
(00:21):
up comedian. It's Ello.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
It's me on Trending. I gave Miles a new strain
of COVID that's never been produced.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Both they saw. They're baffled. The authorities are baffled.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
They have no they actually want to study my brain.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
M That's how you came up with that sick, twisted.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Shit fucking crazy.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
We were trying out some different things, like I was
wondering why sister hasn't caught on the same way that brother, Brother,
Hey brother, how you doing.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
We're just to say it. It's just it just feels weird.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
It feels it feels very like in the same way
that like certain people when they say brother, they sound
like a Christian youth minister. They're like, hey brother, how
are you doing?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Like sister, there's about to be a hand placed on
my shoulder. You know. Yeah, hey, sister, anticipatory cringe, as
the psychologist call it.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
They do call it that. That's the number one problem
I had. There was a slightly older friend of my
nine and seven year old over at our house and
I heard him explaining to them like that. He was like,
I don't do that, that would be cringe. And they
were like, well, what does that mean? And he was like,
it's like a thing that older girls say to you,
(01:46):
you like, do something that isn't cool.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Waits, that's good. That's me little boys to think exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
He's just like, O good, it's great. Kid's nineteen years old.
All right. This is the episode where we tell you
some of the stuff that is trending on this Wednesday,
December tenth, pol. Yeah, you might have. You might have
noticed this because you're you're a pretty big Maga supporter. No, yeah,
you know, I'm huge.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Did you say magnet supporter?
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Yeah, you love magnets. It's crazy. A magnet mag trains
magnets on the fridge, doesn't matter one way or another.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Magnet ruining my laptop whatever, you know.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Brand the editor is a big Magma supporter. He likes
lava before it gets to the surface.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
It does make you want to lick it.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
It's it's a depressing time in this country right now,
not for any of the reasons that people want to
talk about. The economy bround, you know, fascist police forces
invading cities and kidnapping people and not telling you where
they're taking them. No, the thing that's rough is you
(03:01):
hate to see the right turn on each other, you.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Know, so if they can't make it.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Exactly, it's like it's like when we found out Tom
Cruise and Nicole Kidman broke up.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
What Who's gonna have the post Nicole pictures? Remember those
pictures where she's like, I'm free after signing the divorce papers. Yeah, yeah,
it's gonna be Candace.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Maybe Candace, I don't know. She seems like pretty troubled.
Buy a lot of different conspiracy theories. But all right,
So the latest beef my Lea Annapolis went on I believe, Yeah,
George Santos and Tim Poole's podcast, so some people some
people are getting together.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
George Santos has a podcast with Tim Poole.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Tim Poole like proven Russia Asset, Tim Poole.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Bayest and Straightest people.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
You can think just wear my beanie indoors. It's July.
What what do you want? Don't look, I've showered in
two weeks. So he came on and had some thoughts
on Benny, my infant nearly died in a drug fire
(04:18):
after mass shootings. Johnson, you did not have me back
on this.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
And do you know about when I was on with Miles.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
And that first happened.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
No, he played the clip and I like literally was
just laughing on on the podcast for half an hour.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Yeah, well he's back. He's back, Paulvy. You will be
happy to know. We're in the midst of doing our
countdown to the top fifteen stories of the year that
we covered on TDZ and that story may or may
not have come up on the fact that I was
out that day. You were filling in for me, and
(04:58):
you might get name dropped in that. But so Miloianopolis
another like kind of a blast from the past, this
is just he washed Mega Influencer podcast. George Santos, Tempoole,
and Miley Napolis were on and Milo was like, I'll
tell you one thing that's weird about the right Miley Aanopolis,
who I think is openly gay, or like was openly
(05:22):
gay and now things to have been converted has come
through and said that Benny Johnson, and this is something
that there's been rumors of, is uh, you know, despite
the fact that he's constantly posting pictures of his human
wife and real children, is actually gay?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Wait, why'd you whisper it like that?
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Because I'm I'm someone's parent.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Ethnicities to.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
But uh, I'm not going to play the clip because
it's sped up at like two x speed for some reason,
I guess just because that's the only way anybody could
get through it. But he claims that Benny's wife was
drunk at the bar at Sass, which I don't know
exactly what that is. I'm sure we've talked about it before,
(06:17):
but it's not coming to me at the moment. Was
drunk at the bar at SaaS three years in a row,
crying about how her husband was upstairs with men at
the hotel. So that's, you know, not the most shocking thing.
Bennie Johnson just responded with a picture of his family.
Was like been a.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Thing though, right, Like he's not allowed to go to
conferences by himself or whatever, like because he hooks up.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
With guys allegedly allegedly she's alleged no, you have to
say the allegedly part out loud.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
He allegedly shots Grinder down at Republican Gone.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Melts the Grinder app, melch the app. And then there's
Nick Fuentes, who I hadn't heard much about his sexuality,
the Latino Latino influencer, Latino influencer. N that's that's a
great way to describe him.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Virgin gay Latino, allegedly.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Hitler loving mic Roman who is like the right. The
Republican Party are are not thrilled with him because he
you know, some of them openly welcome his open Nazi support.
Others are like, we're not We're not like actually the
Nazi Party and feel like subtle T shirts still be
(07:49):
a thing. But anyways, he went on Peers Morgan, why
are we just.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Going through nightmare blunt rotations?
Speaker 1 (07:57):
They're my all my sleep, this demon I know, just
some of the worst people getting together and just like bickering.
But I do want to play this interview because it
revealed ap Peers is like, so you're not gay, which
I don't know. This is a weird line of questioning.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I don't well No, it's a it's a that's also
a rumor.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
That's a rumor that's going around. Okay, yeah, that.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Nick Fintas And like Destiny, who do you know who
Destiny is? He's like a he's a quote unquote liberal streamer.
He's pro Israel. He supposedly interview or debated like with
Alan Dershowitz. Again, I think it was. Yeah that so
(08:41):
apparently there are rumors that like job or something.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
I don't so, so okay, that's helpful context for this
interview where we just learned a little bit more than
we ever wanted to know about Nick quent you online. Yeah,
so okay, here's the lore.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
One of the many theories. You have no idea what
the answers, and you haven't got to answer. But are
you actually attracted to women?
Speaker 4 (09:10):
I am attracted to women?
Speaker 1 (09:11):
You're gay?
Speaker 4 (09:13):
No, women are very difficult to be around.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
So h and do you think they should have the
right to vote?
Speaker 4 (09:23):
I do not know? Absolutely not, absolutely not. Well yeah
absolutely So.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Basically you're just a misogyn is all done? So there
aren't he for a for a young guy? I mean,
I know I'm the boom.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I know, I'm the seems like this is where it's
going to end. But it actually all women am All
women are annoying.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
All women grow old, they all get fat, says the guy.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Have you ever had sex? No?
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
No, absolutely not, Like is an accusation.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
This evil little twink. I I feel like he fits
that stereotype of evil white twink. So eyebrows went up
when he when they were like when Pierce was like,
do you are you attracted to women? And he was like, ah, yeah, definitely,
I love their boobs and their behenes. But his whole
(10:22):
thing about him not getting laid. In the interview, he
talks about how he advocates for marriage even though he
like shits on women constantly to his male audience.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
But that's he seems like you'd be a great partner.
So it's weird.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Yeah, very loving, generous partner. But that's like a thing
that's happening with the people with young men who are
listening to these alpha male influencer nazi influencer people is
that they're like totally like distanced themselves from having actual
relationships even like they they don't want to like interact
(10:56):
or have they're like focus on yourself. King, like these
bidgeons are going to hold you down, like you know
that sort of thing.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
So great advice.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah. So it's like he ca he within that same interview,
he called himself an in cell. He said he was like,
hat is a virgin, but he has like people sliding
into his dms all the time. But he's gonna wait
for marriage till later. But he encourages his follow it's
so like contradictory to how he lives his life.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
And paying a coherent picture of an actual sexual being
more of like a series of postures that's being taken
up to conveniently.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Yeah. Yeah. And it's also like he also later says like, yeah,
well I tell them to marry women, you can like
make them lose weight and like basically break their spirits.
But you know, like it's fine. That's still straight of me.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Yeah, yeah, that's what dudes do. You're in nineteen thirty five. Wait,
what also said.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
That women want to be raped and want to get
beat up, Like he talked about rape fantasies, but the
way he presented it was like they want to be raped.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Damn. That sucks for women that he's not h actively
pursuing them. He sounds like a catch like.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Yeah, no, it's pretty Yeah, I don't know. And then
he claims that the reason he's not getting married is
because he's a target, so he doesn't want his family
to go through that. And I'm like, you sound like
you want whoever whatever woman's nearest to you to suffer
as much as.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Possible, right, Yeah, that, But but he's heroic when it
comes to, you know, not not pulling. I don't want
to pull the love of my life into this. Yeah, yeah,
I mean that is you know, when you're thinking about marriage,
the first thing you got to think about is like,
what does this do to my security profile?
Speaker 2 (12:49):
You know, like, will she get me docs? What's opsit
I throw her body in front of mine at any
gift of Yeah, exactly?
Speaker 1 (12:56):
What's the op sex situation here? How does this affect
my opps?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I hate fat women. But she also can't lose too
much weight, and she won't be able to guard.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
You, easy to shoot around. Yeah, let's take a quick break.
We'll cover other stories than this. I promise we'll be
right back. Oh God, hand to her back, and Polly,
(13:29):
we got a little bit of good news, We got
a little bit of continued.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
You threatened me with a good time Jack.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
More momentum for Democrats who focus on affordability and oppose
Donald Trump's policies. For the first time since nineteen ninety seven,
a Democrat was elected mayor of Miami. I would have
thought it was like a tradition to Miamy. We're going
to Miami again. Yeah, just for the look, I don't
(14:00):
don't light it. Some of the best bars in the
of all the time, not in Miami in the song
Welcome to Miami. And you know, Republicans are trying to
claim this is a democratic city, like that's this is
just what happens. It first time since nineteen ninety seven,
since the year.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
I don't even know about because I'm so young.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
And yeah, like before either of us were born politics.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Before we were even a twinkle in our parents' eyes.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
I was having a midlife crisis in nineteen ninety seven.
But and she's not like a Democrat who like taxed
to the right and just tricks people into I know. Also,
the very first female mayor was elected. Uh not by
being like, look at my gun collection. I'm a Democrat,
(14:49):
but you can trust me. I hate gay people. She's
a Democrat who did this wild thing where she opposed
the Trump administration's immigration policy. Instead of being like, I
too don't want anybody who's brown in this country, she
opposed the immigration policy and she focused on something called affordability.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
What is even that I've never heard.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
What does even that mean?
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Like affording me affordability?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
As far as I'm told.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Credit card debt is that something?
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Yeah, it's this is a hoax and fake news according
to Fox News. But they're just like, yeah, of course
they win in Miami, and it does like it does
make sense. They would claim that because I did assume
that Miami would, like many you know, major metropolitan areas,
would have democratic politics. But no, not since ninety seven.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Also, like I thought that, like I thought a lot
of the population, like even the Latino population in Miami
voted Republican because of.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Like the Cuban population does.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Yeah, socialism scare sort of thing.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yeah, they did not vote Republican this time. She won
by ten points over a candidate, Amelio Gonzalez, who was
supported by Donald Trump and meetball Ron DeSantis. Trump endorsed
him twice on truth Social spelling his name incorrectly both times,
(16:23):
didn't get it right once Amelio Gonzalez, Amelio Gonzalez.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Did he ever spell Zorn's name correctly?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Maybe after the meeting. I think he got it once,
he got it tatted on the heart.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Donald Trump also had a bit of a Miles has
been pointing out that you can kind of track his
cognitive behavior by when it is in the day, like
as the sun goes down. And this is there is
a thing with people with dimension called sundowning, where you know,
(16:58):
anybody who has worked with the l early is like
they talk about sundowning, which is when as the day
goes on, their brains get exhausted, they start getting very
frustrated with the you know, with being inside a brain
that isn't functioning properly.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
But also this presents itself in Donald Trump's brain as racism,
which means his brain is also a sundown town.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
He just gets more racist against like black people, Somali's
as the day passes.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
His brain becomes a sundown town. From the nineteen well,
there still are some, yeah, but his I feel like
it's particularly regretsive. Yeah. Yeah, There's little white children hitting
a hoop with a stick as they run down the
middle of a dirt road. But so last night he
had just a real long rant on truth social where
(17:55):
he continued to fixate on his cognitive ability for some reason,
don't know what that first he went through and was like,
my hours are the longest, and my results are among
the best. I've created the greatest economy of the in
the history of the country, brought business back into the
United States, rebuilt our military, created the largest tax Just
(18:16):
like making shit up and then.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
Thinking of that, sounds like a villain from Loki. My
hours other longest.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
My hours are the long I actually have more time
in my twenty four hour day than you do. In
addition to all that, I go out of my way
to do long, thorough and very boring medical examination at
the great Walter Reed National Medical Military Medical Center, seen
and supervised by top doctors, all of whom have given
me perfect marks. Some have even said they have never
(18:44):
seen such strong results. I have done something that no
other president has done on three separate occasions, the last
one being recently, by taking what is known as a
cognitive examination, something which few people would be able to
do very well, including those working at the New York Times,
and I aced all three of them in front of
large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I
(19:07):
do not know.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
The doctors called me a medical miracle, saying that it
was impressive I could walk around with my brain being
in the state that it.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Is exactly like you do not like to brag that
you're taking takenical.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Students and examiners from all over the world.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
To brag that you're taking cognitive exams in front of
like entire teams of doctors that you don't know, who
are all just like and they look on with great
concern and going saying.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
They've never seen a brain so smooth.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
And when I say, why did you just say? Oh no,
When I answer the thing, they're saying, oh, because you
you broke the record for being the best.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
And then they give me a lollipo.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
There's no such thing as perfect marks on a test
that is meant to determine whether or not you have dementia.
That's just like me.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
It's like the ADHD tests were like, if you fail,
you pass.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
You know, if you fail, you now have access to stimulants.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Maybe they were like, you tested positive and he misinterpreted that.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Right, They say, I have I'm giving some of the
most positive tests. They said this country.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
They said, I am serving.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
I am serving add complicated by profound dementia. I mean,
they said, I'm basically the smartest person on the planet.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
Giving Louis body syndrome. They like my body.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
I don't know why. I will know when I am
slowing up, but it's not now after all the work
I've done with medical exams, cognitive exams and everything else.
The work he has done with medical exams research.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Yeah, he's like distributed scientifically prime.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
The editor said, it's like saying you got an eighty
on your AIDS test, and then he claimed that it's
treason us for anybody, including the New York Times, to
say that the president of the United States is lacking
in any mental capacity. If you think he's stupid, you
(21:14):
should actually be hanged for that.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Okay, they said my blood type was A plus very good.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
So I don't know. It just seems like the sun
is going down. The sun is low in the sky,
and it's rarely, in my experience, the sun rarely reverses
directions starts going up again. So we'll see. And I
may be hunting for this opinion a long time. Yeah,
(21:45):
And Finally, we got to do our check in with
the box office because it is in keeping with our
year long trend of haunted creepy trend. Sydney Sweeney dominating.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
He said, wanted creepy dolls. At the same time, I said, Sidney.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
She does kind of give haunted creepy doll.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Yeah, like that meme of her being a bigot or
whatever that they're trying to were she just staring off
into the distance.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
I've got good Janes, listen.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
She actually is very beautiful, has amazing She's very beautiful.
But I wish she would say either less or more, you.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Know, m hm or not. I leave that there. I'll
just leave that there at all. But we're not talking
about that particular haunted doll. We're talking, of course, about
the trend. It's just funny to read the box office
reports when they're like and the Annabelle franchise comes to
a close with like shockingly high numbers, then they're like
(22:50):
five nights at Freddy's two comes in and doubles what
we expected it to do. It's like, people love haunted dolls.
Give me some haunted doll in this case.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Is animatronic, and it was the same haunting doll. It
was just haunted for good. You know. Yeah, we love
dolls that come to Megan. That's a gay icon.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Yeah. Megan actually fucked up this trend a little bit
this year by dropping an absolute turkey on us. But
apparently that one just wasn't good.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
Although I enjoyed it.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Fy Ni Freddy Too, Fine Nite Freddy Too. Is supposed
to be dog shit and it did sixty million at
the box office. They were coming in being like, man,
this movie might even make like thirty to forty million.
It's crazy. It did sixty three million. It broke all
the like. This is supposedly box office dead zone the
week after Thanksgiving, nobody releases movies there, and they they
(23:46):
dropped it on all of our asses. Fine Nite Freddy Too,
And it was fucking massive, almost as if Hollywood is
bad at estimating how much people want to go to
movie theaters and actually see movies.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Jack, I have a pitch for you. Get ready, Yeah,
I'm a gotcha terrorist?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Yes, yeah, no, absolutely, just keep doing like I think obviously,
Five Nights of Freddy's is a massive game franchise, right
you just and I think it's also like drawing power
from the fact that like people have been seeing on
the internet, like all those videos of like melting ferbies
(24:29):
and ship you know, or like what looks like without
the face on. Like that's all we're seeing, right eye, Oh,
we're going online and see. But you've seen like the
like just creepy animatronics. You've never seen atronics.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
But like, I haven't seen a trend lately of ferbies melting.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Right, No, not lately, but we it's it's in there.
It's lockdown our.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Brain the boo boo thing too, because I'm getting ferbie
flashbacks with the boo boos.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Yes, absolutely, this is the other part of our trend.
Might also be making an appearance on our top fifteen
stories of the year. Is like the la booboo craze
peaked this year and again my ear to the streets
when it comes to seven year olds. My seven year
old came home and was like, Okay, there's this new
thing called the boo boos. One of the kids in
(25:17):
our school has it. And the one he has turned
its head and looked at me and smiled, and I
was like, fuck, I wish I could tell you that
didn't happen. But Honestly, man, I'm too scared of any movies,
too fucking scared.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Every time there's like a trend like this where it's
like a kind of fuzzy sort of toy, that is
a huge deal. I always think of that picture from
like some Judge Judy type show where the divorced couple
are separating their beanie baby collection.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Do you guys, Yeah, that's oh. We talk about that
a lot. I mean, that's one of them. That wasn't
court TV. That was like just a that was a
picture from an actual divorce settlement. Makes it worse like
that wasn't It wasn't for TV. It is how shit
was going down at that point in time.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Like anytime anybody collects things, That's what I think of.
I'm just like, No, the kids are being torn apart.
Do they switch custody? What's happening?
Speaker 1 (26:13):
All right, Paulay, that's that's plenty. We're going to come
back tomorrow. Shut the fuck up, friend, Paula. Thank you
so much for filling in for Miles after you poisoned him.
Where can people find you? Follow you, go see you
all that good stuff?
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Well, obviously you'll always find me poisoning miles. That's my
first passion and hobby, and I would say career at
this point.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
And then.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
I run two monthly shows in LA now. One is
called Second Screens Comedy and it is a show where
you are encouraged to be on your phone, be on
your laptop, be an ADHD head. At our first show,
we passed around a bag of gru grasps for people
to touch if they got over stimulated, and it's super fun.
(27:04):
We do like online bits. We took a which Disney
Princess are you quiz and it turns out our entire
audience and all the performers were Tianas together, so that
was sweet. And that's on the fourteenth of January. On
the seventeenth, I will be at Sketch Best with my
South Asian improv teams in the batties and with Facial
(27:27):
Recognition Comedy that's in the Bay Area FF. And then
on the twenty third of January, we have Facial Recognition
Comedy back in LA and we also have one in
on the nineteenth of December. So the show's in LA
and FF and I'm going to be touring again. Ll me, okay,
thank you.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
All right, We're back tomorrow with the whole ast episode
of the show. Until then, be kind to each other,
be kind to yourselves, get your vaccines where you still

and we will talk to you all tomorrow. By The
