Geist you know, we just just taking the temperature of

(02:30):
the global consciouness, no, the national consciousness, because sometimes they
get mad when you say global and sometimes we do
capture the global consciousness. But yeah, we do everything. We
like social media. We look at articles, we look at
box office reports and things of that nature to make
sure that we're giving you the most up to date, uh,
stories that we think are important. Sometimes they're good, sometimes
they're bad, but keep in mind, this is a second

(02:52):
rate podcast. Uh. And so today we're gonna be looking
at a couple of things, like, you know, Megan Kelly,
apparently she just found out that black face was bad. Yeah, exactly,
very important announcement for McDonald's fans out there. I don't
want to say what it is quite yet, but if
you like McDonald's and you funk with the breakfast, hold
onto your button, boy does your boy fun when McDonald

(03:13):
I'm excited about it because I also what everyone does. Uh.
Then we're gonna talk about someone taking the president's words
very seriously and starting to send explosive packages around to
some of Trump's political critics and enemies. That is getting
like a pretty hot story, some more disinformation around the
migrant caravan, will get an update on that w E

(03:35):
event in Saudi Arabia, and talk about a few other
things that will get your attention. But first I'm excited
talk about all those things. Mr. Mr Baizade, friend of
jack Keys. You're from Chicago, right, a longtime friend. We've
been friends for over twelve Beautifully, I'm not from Chicago,
but I lived in Chicago for like ten years. I'm

(03:57):
actually from Upset, New York. There you go, Syracuse. All right, well,
let's let's get to know you bays On. What is
something from your church history that let's just know a
little bit more about who you is? Who you is?
Oh wow, I'm gonna click my Google search. We gotta know.
I looked up I would have one, two, three, four five.

(04:20):
I'm gonna len just list my last. Ramona Singer Trump
because somebody told me that Ramona Singer from Real Housewives
of either Beverly Hills, Orange Column. Ramona's from New York.
Oh that's right, that's right, that's rightmo from New York.
That I actually watched a lot of the Real Housewives.
But yeah, Ramona Singer someone told me was like a
Trumps sporter. So I googled that because I want to

(04:40):
make sure that was true. Then I googled Disney Makeup
Aladdin because I heard that the Walt Disney, did you
guys hear about this that? Like Disney was accused that
on their set of their of Aladdin right now, they
have a bunch of white extras putting on brown faces
in the back. And then when they got called out,
they said there was like reads of people and they
only did it to twenty and and cal Penn, who

(05:04):
tweeted about who's not involved movient. Cal Pen was like,
but why twenty at all? Because there's literally Bollywood that
has like five million brown actors, like go hire them
another another thing. They're like, oh, well, some of these
people have special skills, like they ride horses and things
like that. And they're like, oh, because brown people don't write, okay,
then Google that is bad. And then the last thing

(05:27):
I google was last night actually about like six I
said late night cafes to write, and I was at
bozebad Pig last night to do in the morning. What
are you working on? I'm I'm from anti government manifesto.
Please don't do that ethnically, I beg you has already
got me in trouble eyes and all kinds of ship.
Um no, I am creating content right now. UM I
am trying to bring an Indian American family story to

(05:49):
television because surprisingly has never been done. Um. We have
the success of Crazy Ritations and and and Black Panther
and Blackish and all these things, but the Indian American story,
or the Middle Eastern American story has never actually really
been told in a in a real way. We have
some of these characters sometimes, but usually it involves them
marrying white people and then getting their perspective. Um, So

(06:10):
I'm trying to tell like that Indian American story. We
often see the Indian story like sorry is and accents
and and arranged marriages and all that, but we don't
get to see like an honest, true telling. So I'm
currently creating that. I'm pitching it as a writing partner.
I have producers, and it's a lot of work. I'm
surprised any TV show ever gets to TV with how
much work it is and how much like fires there
are to put out. But last night I just you

(06:32):
went you went off. I can't work at home, I
can't write at home rather because too many distractions. I
just I just end up listening to music laying in
macauch fall. See if I'll do it tomorrow, you know,
light's exactly right. I gotta sit and like feel like
I'm in a place. Wait, so why were you searching
Ramona Singer? Because I obviously when I look at Ramona,
I was like, yo, she is one of those can

(06:52):
I speak to the manager type white women? She is
she like a John and K plus eight type mom.
I don't know, I don't know. She doesn't have that hairstyleed.
Her energy is like this New York woman who sort
of is really condescending all the time. It was really good.
Oh my god, that's see. I'm like, that's a really
good one singer. I watched a lot of Real Housewives

(07:13):
and not like religiously, but I'll catch episodes. And someone
had said on Twitter. Oh, someone on Twitter had said
something about like, oh, I know what it was. Trump
had just done that thing about the trans thing he
had like getting you try to erase trans from the
definition whatever. And someone had said are you happy Ramona?
Like happy Ramona Singer on Twitter? And I was like, oh,

(07:35):
I was like, did Ramona like support that? So that's
what I was Google. So apparently one of the housewives
I forget which one is like a huge Hillary supporter
and had a Hillary like dinner, like one of those
like you know, fancy dinners where they do exactly and
didn't invite Ramona. And when they asked her later, like
why didn't you write Ramona, and she was like, let's

(07:57):
just say Ramona wouldn't have come, and that like sort
of started it. And then like Ramona when they asked
Andy straight up asked like Andy whatever his name is,
straight up asked like what did who did you vote for?
And Ramona put the fifth and I was like, you
played the fifth. That means, yeah, played the fifth unless
she voted for Gary Johnson. Why, oh my goodness beside,

(08:24):
what is something that you think is overrated? New Year's Eve? Okay?
News Eve is so overrated? You mean just the like
with the gravitas, the prompt circumstance of New Year's Eve,
the dinners, the flute, Champagne, the I've never had fun
on the years, the idea that we're supposed to have

(08:44):
like the greatest night of our lives to bring in
the new year. But like, technically today is the new year.
You know what I'm saying, Like, oh, okay, today, that
is the first day of the new year. You know
what I just I just think it's yesterday was the
first day years to day to second. I don't know
if I've ever had fun on New Year's what you're

(09:07):
describing like the shitty over the top ones which I
would never go to where it's like pay four hundred
dollars to. I feel like there's something else ever getting
sun up at your house. Yeah, so you got to
be alone, But I'm I'm a dudeho's been single on
New Year's for the last like six years. So it's
like you don't want to sit alone watch other people
make out. There's sort of like a pressure to do
something to like have fun. Yeah, And like I agree

(09:29):
with you, Like, so if you don't want to do
the fancy spent three on a dinner with the champagne
and no one wants to. But I feel like every
restaurant closes for that, Like I feel like there's nothing
else you can do. Yeah, you gotta have to have
friends who were doing say, you gotta have friends who
are doing parties. I never had a good New Year's either,
but well I had one a few years ago. UCB

(09:50):
through a free party for all their members and it
was also the last one day threw because ship went
down because it was free alcohol all night long. Got
a guy fucking wild, went into the wilderness and went,
let's just say some people lost their times up pants.
That's it. And it was like, we can't do this anymore. Yeah,

(10:12):
there's like there's so much pressure on years. It's like
you gotta get a kiss in New Year's. Yeah, you
gotta get And then I in Chicago, I remember, I
think you were already out here. You've been here a
lot longer than me. But in Chicago, New Year's is
often like a terrible weather day, and there's and like
so all these people we get dressed up in suits
and we get we get like, you know, dresses. I remember,
I'll tell you one there was I'm gonna throw under

(10:34):
the bus because I think I don't know, I don't
think they ever ran their ship. Well, anyway, there's a
theater called Red Moon Theater Company of Chicago, and Red
Moon had this big blast, like this huge like gathering
at their warehouse space in a neighborhood called Pilson in
Chicago and which is also some nice last places, and
they had this huge warehouse and so they have this
like party and of course everyone's ubering or zip carring

(10:56):
because in Chicago, you know, like car culture. So everyone's
getting down there and we're all dressed up for this
bash and we all have heavy jackets and sweaters and
gloves and hats and scarves. They didn't have a coach check,
they didn't have no but real talk like that's actually
a thing, because where do you there was two thousand

(11:16):
people in there with old I didn't realize that's a warehouse.
The warehouses in that neighborhood are their party spaces, right,
I know it sounds crazy, but like, well, I'm just
showing my l a ask because I don't wear jackets.
But where you put two douzen jackets? I mean that's yeah,
you just pockets. But the thing, it's a warehouse. There's
a warehouse. So now you have I remember this because

(11:37):
I was with like this woe who that's like really nice.
Like I had a top coat on when my sup
we're all dressed up. I'm not putting my top coat
on the ground in a warehouse with snowy slushy shoes
like I was just like the New Year's Sun together,
everyone's holding new jackets all night. What is for in
Indian culture was new Year's like, well, it depends on
the So India has like so many religions. So I'm

(11:58):
Zarastriansarastrian years, and it's called courtat style mubarik, which is
actually it's funny. Our new year is like the birth
of our prophet. And then there's something in Iranyan's Russian
culture it's potato mubarak or never rose mubarak. And so
that's in August. I think, I don't know um. And
then there is Hindu has Dowali which is coming up um,
and then Islam has their own and I don't want

(12:19):
to speak on it because I don't know what it is.
But what's the vibe like is it? It's just more
it's not as like it's more cermony getting together with
your family and things like that. It's more similar because
its more religious, more religious, like our New Year's here
in America is just the turn of the calendar years. Yeah,
whereas a lot of other New Year's as religious aspects. Yeah,
this is the rebirth of our spiritual beings. And Japan

(12:41):
is kind of like that too, especially there's more of
an emphasis of like you know, for the first like week,
just don't do ship, like you cook all this food
and just keep it chilling at the house so you
don't have to leave and just watch TV all day.
And they do the most of the wild Japanese specials
you see when you like look at this Japanese game show.
It's usually around New Year's when they put them those
ships out because everybody's at home. So I love the

(13:02):
idea of going to watch the ball drop in Time
Square Live sounds so miserable to me. You gotta get
there at like two pm right to get a spot
that's not in the side street and children for ten
hours in the freezing cold in New York as it
gets more and more and more and more. Crap, what
if you have to pee? You're sharing yourself that we
both just right away. We just haven't we talked about

(13:25):
that before we ourselves. Are you serious? Well it depends. Well, look,
you know, some shows are too big and you're too
close to the stage. You're not gonna go to the bathroom.
Some shows you don't wanna. You don't wanna, you don't
want to go to the bathroom. You just piss yourself
and smelled like ass the rest of the time. Yeah, man,
you know I would not be comfortable. I didn't piss myself.
I pissed in the cup. I went to the Okay
Ali and a J from the Disney Channel. I went

(13:45):
to one of their shows that how Clues. Pissed myself
there show. What's something that's underrated? What's underrated is that
in in good songs, I don't mean like hip hop,
R and B. I mean like more like rock and
roll nineties, kind of like alternative music. In good songs,
the drums are underrated. Oh wow, people don't give enough
respect to the drums. That's such a that's such a
specific thing. I guess what I'm trying to say in

(14:08):
a way that I don't know how to say it
is that like the drums can really make or break
a song or one of the rhythm sections. It's the foundation.
But like I'm thinking of like certain Okay, so I
used to play the drums in high school. I wasn't
never really good, but as I listened for rhythm a lot,
and like a lot of times, it's like what the
drums could do is like the bare minimum. They hold
the rhythm right right, they they play four or four time,

(14:29):
they keep the time every four to eight measures. They
fell in a little to good Dog, Dog Dog. But
then there's some drums that drummers that are like creative,
like the drummer for No Doubt Cardobut for the drumber
for Dave Matthews Band. Like drummers that are creative and
they do things that are like, oh, I do not
think you would call out those two bands off top
to be like creative drummers from I can give you
examples of those, but like, but like they do things

(14:51):
that are like it's not that they're hard or difficult,
any like eighth grade drummer could do them, but it's creative.
It's the idea. And I was like, like, if you
think crashing to me, it is like Dave Matthews Man's
biggest song. They got that cool snare kind of like
March happening in the back. Nine out of ten bands
would just have like you chat some some chat and
this guy's like it's like this March happen in the

(15:12):
back and it's dope and it makes the song great
and and No Doubt listen to Sunday Morning. There's parts
where the drummer could just be holding it, but he's
like fucking with time like pop, like syncopating things for
no reason and like a normal rock song where most
drummers would just like whole time. Right, So I feel
like more people care about the guitar and then I'll
show the piano. But but, and you said this in

(15:35):
hip hop though, it is about the drums. So yeah,
for me, when I heard it, I'm like, dude, all
we care about is the drum because that is there's
a Chappelle sketch where they come in with the guitar
and like all the people in the barbershop are just
sitting there and then he hit the drums and stuff.
I haven't say that, I got it. Feels like it's

(15:56):
right you think about tracks like grinding by the people
is dressed. Oh man, that's snap. A lot of people
don't catch that. Yeah, I feel like with the drums things,
I agree with you is underrated. But in Back and
Back that ass up Juneile, people miss at the very end,

(16:16):
there's a cow bow and it's dope. It's like, look
good on your back. That ass I'm using to fund
and it's like bunk bunko boom bump bum bum bum
bum boom. It's in the back. You go thanks time
you listen to back that for different reasons. Bum. All right,

(16:38):
what's a myth? I don't want to get too deep
down in the sports thing, but these are both gonna
be sports things. Okay, basketball things specifically two two parts
Part one. When people try to tell me that college
basketball or college teams a play harder, play smarter, work better,

(17:02):
the best college team could beat the worst NBA, that
is such garbage nonsense. It's not true. When people say
to me like, oh, in college they play defense, and
they don't, ye are right? And then when they say
things like, oh, well, in college they're playing for the
right reasons and the NBA they're just playing for money. No,
in colleges are playing to get to the NBA to
make my money? Yet, like what are you talking about?
Like having kids? Don't want even be and and then

(17:23):
and the ones that go to are already getting paid.
All right, Well, let's get into the stories of the day. Yesterday,
we're talking a little bit about Megan Kelly's super fire
take on black face. Wait, how is that racist? What?
Maybe she just really likes Diana Ross, well another real
housewife were actually that was yeah? Uh? And she was
she was like, I don't get it, and then yeah,

(17:46):
come Wednesday morning, she had to kind of explain herself
because I think the internet was like, I'm sorry, this
is not nineteen o two. I guess we have to
explain to you what's going on black face. So she
started her show off today with a very, very heart
wrenching apology. Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the show.
I'm Megan Kelly, and I want to begin with two words.

(18:08):
I'm sorry. You may have heard that yesterday we had
a discussion here about political correctness and Halloween costumes, and
that conversation turned to whether it is ever okay for
a person of one race to dress up as another,
a black person making their face lighter or a white
person making their's darker to make a costume complete. I
defended the idea, saying, as long as it as it

(18:30):
was respectful and part of a Halloween costume, it seemed okay.
Well I was wrong, and I am sorry. One of
the great parts of sitting in this chair each day
is getting to discuss different points of view. Sometimes I
talk and sometimes I listen, And yesterday I learned. I
learned that given the history of black face being used

(18:52):
in awful ways by racists in this country is not okay, okay, stop,
he said, I learned yesterday yesterday time traveling, like, you
know what was bad? You know what? You know it
pissed me off when she led with people come after

(19:15):
Marlin and Shaun Wayne's white girls. You like, that's not
what we're talking about. I have a lot to say
about this, because I do a lot. I think I
might have mentioned this in the last one, but I'm
a founding member of a group called the Chicago Inclusion Project,
and what we do is seek to level the playing
field for women and people of color and lgbt Q
on the stages in Chicago. I just do that when
I was living there, and we get a lot of
messages about people putting brown face on um and their

(19:39):
productions of Bollywood Pippin or Aladdin or anything goes with
the two Asians. They do this all the time, and
it's like a lot of times the other side will say, well,
acting is acting, it's just makeup. They gotta look like
the person acting is acting. And I'm like, that's true.
If we don't have a history in this country where
black and brown people could not tell their story. So

(20:01):
white people were creating stories about black people and then
playing those black people by putting black face and denying
them the ability to tell their own stories. That horrible
minstrel show, racist history of movies like Birth of the
Nation is why we can't have black face now, because
there's context there. If for three hundred years, every judge,

(20:22):
every control of the media, every police officer, every president,
if we have forty four straight black presidents over the
course of three years, and there was a time where
we enslaved white people, then in two thousand five two,
I'm willing to hear you talk about why black people
shouldn't have a white face. Well, yeah, and I think
just missing the whole mark of how black face is

(20:43):
just about the dehumanization of people of color, Like just
missing that point entirely, Just like, hey, if you like
Diana Ross, Like, what's the problem, right, Yeah, if you like,
because that's the thing if you go watch black I
don't think enough people have watched those old black face
is discussing even more than that. I was watching a
couple clips today and not only did they put on

(21:04):
black face, and you were saying they couldn't tell their stories,
those weren't their stories either they were you know, they
were well, you know how I'm gonna going head and
eat some fried chicken and put my toes in the dirt.
And I'm like, actually worse than that. It was even
like I'm gonna I can't not rape these white women. Yeah,

(21:26):
it's like I can't not steal ship. It was like
worse than that. And we're about to see it. I
mean what Today's so starting this week, we're going to
see all kinds of like white kids at fraternity is
doing gangster parties and being thugs for Halloween and do
all that kind of stuff. And like the thing is,
it's like, oh, you want to like you want to
put on that culture for a day and then take
it off and that's a convenience. Yeah, why don't you

(21:48):
keep that black face on and drive around town and
then get pulled over by a white cop? Yeah? Yeah,
because you want to be able to like experience the
culture for a day and the way you think you
can and then like take off the skin and take
people of color tours act. Yeah, and that's that I
think that's missing the point of that, uh, the ability
to just be like and then I can resume my
privilege while I just have fun and take taking care

(22:09):
of a baby while it's laughing and then giving it
back to its mom when it's Yeah, I hate that
I would do that. All right, we'll talk a little
bit more about your parenting. That's great, and we're back

(22:30):
and gosh, we I think something's big is happening in
the news. I can't quite put my finger on it. Apparently, well,
the Secret Service had intercepted some explosive devices that were
addressed to uh oh, the Obama's Clinton's CNN studios in
New York. And they say these are nearly identical devices
to the ones that was mailed to George Soros, the

(22:53):
liberal boogeyman that the right loves to portray all the time.
Uh And then this list kind of got longer. So
the last few days, suspicious potentially explosive packages have been
sent to those people, in addition to x CIA director
John Brendan, Debbie Washerman Schultz, who's the x d n
C chair, ex Attorney General, Eric Holder, Kamala Harris, Maxine Waters,

(23:16):
just the name many and wow, I'm yeah, and I'm
trying to think, how, like what's the connect Like, what
do all these things have in common, and I couldn't
quite figure it out, and I was like, wait a second,
that's right. These are all people who are on the
receiving end of the president's violent rhetoric about attacking his enemies,
political enemies, his locker up rhetoric when it comes to

(23:38):
Hillary Clinton, his journalists are the enemy of the people rhetoric,
and Obama is not American. We're seeing this play out
because again people like, oh, well, he's just that's what
he says, that's what he says. There's just words are
just words. But guess what, these words have a direct
impact on people. And there's clearly someone or a group
of people who have clearly taken his words to heart

(23:58):
because now they're on it, uh, in potentially violent ways.
I mean, luckily no one was hurt. And you still wonder,
I mean, like, the people I named are probably like
the front row of Trump's like hater team, but there
are so many other people have been on the receiving
end of that that you wonder, like, how many other
people could be at risk? And what this people people

(24:20):
like people like Jamille Hill and Colin Kaepernick don't have Well,
here's the thing to the other people right is. For instance,
Ted Cruz ran this political ad today where he's walking
through a grocery store and people are yelling at him
like get out of here, we don't like you, blah
blah blah blah blah, and then he ends it with

(24:41):
Texas Tough right, And there's this whole rhetoric and and
and dialogue about you know, the Democrats and the left
there yelling us the violent left, and the flip side
to that, like, that's what y'all want to worry about.
Find if y'all can't take some people saying hey, we
don't want you in our restaurant on your violent to you, fine,

(25:02):
the flip side that we have to worry about is
people taking our lives. And that is what the flip
side is, whether it is people killing black people because
on the train stations or people sending bombs to Democrats
and people who hit we're getting get hit by cars
and that and and and the fact that that is

(25:23):
not even something that they are willing to talk about,
well they know that's their shame. That's the whole shame
of this whole game. The kick in case they were
gonna burn crosses in black districts on the way to voting. Yeah,
And I two things to that. One is like I
went on Twitter looking about this a little morning, just
looking at responses from people, and what's crazy about the
far right to me is that there wasn't like a, hey,

(25:45):
we obviously disagree with these people, but we shouldn't be
throwing bombs to them. It was immediate jump to conspiracy
theories and it was like, the Dems are doing this
on purpose to make it look like we're doing it,
which means that they're trying to get out the vote
because they're trying to suppress the vote for ourselves. Like
you're just jump into a conspiracy theory that some Democratic
person is doing this till like it's a conspiracy theory,
and it's like, why is the far right so prone

(26:07):
to conspiracy theories? Pizza Gate? And like, I think they're
unable to own the flaws of some of the people
that support them, and all of the platform that they're
built on is just built on hatred. And one senator
even said, this is probably a dem who's doing this.
It's not even it's not a It is a conspiracy theory,
but that's not the root of it. The root of
it is the fact that they don't want to have

(26:31):
the real conversation. It's like, oh, yeah, the damns are
doing this instead of no, we are creating this rhetoric
in this there's blood on our hands. Right. That's why
you'll never hear the pundits on the right. Even on
Fox News, they're like they were at first like, Okay,
we'll look into this, and sometimes like on Drudge they
were saying like, oh, the White House even got sent

(26:52):
one to try and make it seem like, hey, everybody
was getting it, but that was that was debunked, or
at least they were saying that that report wasn't actually verified. Um.
And yeah, when you look at some of the conservative
pundits now in the aftermath of all these explosive devices
showing up, they're saying ship like this is an anti
foo false flag attack, um, or that this is like

(27:13):
all the other fake hate crimes that they say that
the right is behind and like and they'll be like
and they're all fake just so you know. Uh, and
then even Russia Limbaugh is out here doing the same
thing too, saying like this is a fake attack or
just saying like, of course they're doing this to make
us look bad because they're trying to drum up support
for mid terms. How like, I mean, that is just
the height of absurday. It's a disregard for life. And

(27:36):
you know, nobody's saying when the Democratic girls had it
or somebody on the left gails at public office, person
at a restaurant. They're not saying, oh, that stage, because
that doesn't affect life. That affects comfort, right, and this
threatening to kill people, Yeah, that affects life, and they

(27:59):
don't care about that is about power, is about money,
it's about staying in office, it's about it's about fear
of being second. And that is the problem. Well yeah,
and now they're making that existential threat of lost uh
status is now turning into them creating an existential threat
of like violence to their lives now. And that's the

(28:20):
the entire game plan, which is, like you say, the
people who are morally outraged, who are expressing their moral
outrage of policies, their weaponizing that to say they're violent.
See what they're doing to us without acknowledging what provoked
this moral outrage. And another thing too, is that's now
just being like, okay, we need to vilify and dehumanize

(28:41):
our political rivals to begin for people to even seeing
them as not human, which leads to behavior like this
where they're like, oh, well, I'm willing to make an
attempt to harm or injure somebody because this is the
diet I'm on, the rhetoric I'm consuming all the time,
and I really feel like, you know, places like ox
and you know other middle or not that other Foxes,

(29:03):
middle of the Road and you know more centrist news
outlets really have to begin analyzing what the president's words
like have been on a continuum and looking at that
and say this is how we're getting here because all
we're all he's feeding his base is hey, you know,
we gotta lock her up or you know, these people
their animals, We've gotta do something about him. Yeah, when

(29:24):
you say that over and over, they're not calling lives lives,
they're saying President claims like, no, you know what to lie.
So you gotta say president lies. President lies because that's
what he did. He lied. So when when when they
when President says this and this and this happens in
they're all lies. The media keeps saying President makes this claim,
no he lied, say that he lied and I want

(29:44):
to bring this up. It's kind of different but kind
of the same you brought up Ted Cruz. This thing
has been on my mind so much. I can't understand
like the blatant hypocrisy that just gets Ted and Trump
right now we're on this like campaign to make fun
of how Beto's name is not actually Beto when his
name is Rafael, but head's name is Raphael and he's
by Ted to sound more Texas. I don't understand how

(30:06):
you can be at a Ted Cruise rally and cheer
for the line where Ted Cruiz makes fun of Beto,
Well you're going by a nickname. Well, I can't understand.
How can you cheer for that? And I go, oh,
well the guy we're watching is doing the same thing. Yeah,
well here's the thing with that, And it goes to
even connected to this with the violence and in that
it's a it's a it's a one side or the

(30:27):
other thing, right, if we do it, it's okay. If
you're doing is wrong type thing. Right, So if you
do it, if you change your name, you're doing it
for nefarious reasons. If I do it, I'm doing it
for love and because I want to relate and all
this stuff like that. The same with you know, Donald
Trump and the far right saying, oh, if they yell
in our faces, they're violent left, they're the violent left.

(30:50):
But then at a rally last week when the journalist
body slammed somebody, wasn't that great? You don't want to
russell him, you know, because if we do, it is
for a reason, that's for patriotism in country. Yeah that
was back in Greig jan Forte. Yeah, but he taught
that exactly. But but if we yell in your face,

(31:12):
we're violent. Well again, it's because they have to absolve
themselves of any guilt or any any responsibility in this.
It's always like I don't I don't know what's going
on there. They're they're wild and out. I don't know,
but I'm just I'm just doing my thing. And again
this sort of vilification and and fear campaign that they
used to just sort of unify their base, it bleeds
into also this migrant care migrant caravan that's coming up

(31:36):
through Central America in Mexico towards the US border. Yeah,
where again it's the same tactics where it's trying to
obscure what the reality is to the point to not
to begin to see these people as not human beings
but as violent people who are hell bent on your destruction.
And Middle Eastern and and brown person and Indian person.

(31:57):
It bothers me that even the left is saying things
that they're trying to defend, but it's just like insidious racism.
Like I saw a lot of things today that we're
like even when they're saying, oh, there's clearly no Middle
Easterners in that thing, it's like a disparaging term. It's
like as if yeah, Like it's like it's like it's
like no Trump, there's no there's no Middle Easterners coming in.

(32:19):
And then I saw one that was like, why is
everyone so mad that this migrant caravans coming in and
they're the ones that are going to cut your lawns
and clean your dishes and do your thing. And I'm like,
or they can teach your kids. Yeah, And I was like,
I get your point, but that's pretty insidiously racist as well, like, well,
you know the amount of like you're saying, like one

(32:39):
of the claims has been that it's filled with Middle
Eastern people coming in here, and isis members who are
part of this caravan because they're doing like a trojan
horse type thing. And again that is that all came
out of the Guatemalan president last week just said, oh,
we arrested like a hundred people who we we saw
were connected with ISIS. That was before like this caravan
story started to like in traction, and that was but

(33:02):
that claim was totally unfounded and unverified. But again they
heard this person. They said, oh, well, okay, Guatemala said, ISIS.
That means people are coming from what Okay, we can
lump that together conflict the story like ISIS needs to
come through Mexico. The nine eleven hijackers had passports from
Saudi Arabia. I don't understand why we are they flew here, right,

(33:24):
they got on airplanes and they flew here from your
ally country, Mr Trump, Saudi Arabia, Mr. That's the country
you love so much. And how come when we did
the whole Muslim like that whole what's it called, where
they like blacked out certain countries or Muslim able to
come here, Saudi Arabia was not on that of course,
on the list, and they had sixteen out of the
eighteen hijackers, So what are you talking about like well

(33:45):
they got they flew here, they don't need to come
in here. But we can't get too outraged by this
because this is such a predictable game player. It's just
you know, it's not surprised. We can we can sit
here in poke poke holes in the logic of all
the arguments all day because everything is iological and only
appeals to people's just base fears and just it's the
worst in people. And again and we have to and

(34:07):
the problem is right that these shitty misinformation, like this
misinformation campaign or these lies, they because they gain traction
with the right, other media outlets have to report on
them because so many people are talking about it that
it begins to like lend an air of credibility to
it because CNN has to be like, well, they're saying

(34:27):
there's I said, and that's not true, And sadly it
pulls the coverage in the direction that is completely ridiculous.
Like again, even Pence like two days ago said, oh,
I spoke to the Honduran president and he said basically
that this is being funded by the Venezuelans and organized
by leftist groups. Now the organizer of the caravan is
a former Honduran lawmaker Bartola Fuentez, and he's like, Yo,

(34:52):
this has nothing to do with Venezuela, because let me
tell you something. The Honduran president, he can't be real
about why people are leaving at a rate of three
a day. It's because of the rampant violence and corruption
that's happening under his watch. And you think he's gonna
be there to be like, hey, I'm a shitty president.
So everybody wants to get the funk out, and the
US government is propping me up because there are military
installations here, Like that's why it's so clear. Why then

(35:14):
you just have to pivot to Okay, let's make this
thing look as evil as possible so people can just
hop on board with the xenophobic agenda and obscure the
fact that these are human beings who are fleeing their countries.
You don't, I don't doubt any of these people want
to leave, especially if there was an if their countries
were stable. I don't think they were like, oh I
would love to leave my home, Yeah, I would love

(35:35):
to leave my family. Yeah, But if the situation is
too is it's untenable and we're not We're not like
most our guests on the right, they don't even acknowledge
that sort of basic human urge to you know, avoid
pain and seek prosperity is the fair thing, you know
it is. Yeah, so let's care about you know, this
is why you need us an office, because we can
protect it from this. But there's nothing. I don't want

(35:57):
to say, there's nothing to protect us from, because there
beviously things to protect us from. Its people sending motherfucking
bombs to people, and yeah, let's worry about that. Well again,
and that's why the other reason to the police. You
have people on the right like Rush Limbaugh like he's like, well,
this had to have been the Democrats, And his argument
was because our people don't do stuff like that. And

(36:19):
you're like, okay, so y'all are in full shot up
those churches in South Carolina, right, who shut up Las Vegas.
I mean, look, this is again, this is what happens
when they begin to see their power slip a little
bit and you have to do everything you can to
try and I mean, you know, look, I get it,
I get it. You know, I used to play a

(36:40):
little basketball based on how we played basketball before. And
you know, back when I found out much jump shot
was slipping a little bit, you know, and you know,
you know, and then before and before we started playing,
you know, I would be talking of a game like
y'all want this jumping man, ha ha jump eleven feet,
you know, and I change and just so people would

(37:02):
think like, let's keep him out the paint. Let'sten, you know,
and then trying to add to the perception, trying to
add to the perception. Well, we'll see, maybe we'll have
to see you on the court. Yeah, smallest dogs marked
the loudest exactly. Well again, you know, this is just
all the year of our Lord twenty eighteen and things
that are happening. Another thing I want to talk about
is I don't know. If you guys get wild fucking

(37:25):
amounts of robo calls or calls that you get, the
scam likely show up on it. And mine's the worst
because you know they call from your area, coach, Yeah,
and my areas New York. I live in LA. Now
it's three hours so they're calling me us seven am
thinking and I'm like, you get in trouble for that,
Well no, because they think it's ten. But supposed to
do it based on your area area coach five. So

(37:46):
they're like, they're like it's ten. I'm like no, I'm
in l A, it's seven. I hate you. Right. The
reason I bring this up is that there was like
a study done of like robo calling, and it is
up like nearly double from last year, like the amount
of calls people get, whether it's for political stuff or
like reminders for things like insurance on my back, So

(38:06):
we'll see. That's where the other ones come in, where
it's like they're just finesse scams or they're trying to
be like you the I R S nine thousand dollars
less gift cards to pay off your debt, or other
ones to be like we want to save you on
a new solar thing investment. So I get so many
to the point that like if you listen to the show,
I'm sure there are times you can hear my phone
go off and usually it's a fucking robo call, but
they were putting it in the context. So right now,

(38:28):
there was a record of four point four billion robo
calls received in September, So that breaks down to robo
calls a second, okay, or one seven million calls per day.
There's only thion Americans. Yeah, but the people multiple times there, Yeah,
they got, they got and like if you have. We

(38:48):
did this on Culture Kings where I picked up the
phone and called them back and did a whole segment
the I R S. Yeah, it is wild. It's just
how how some of those scams out, how some of
those scares operate, and how obvious. Well yeah, but that's
the thing they're usually praying on, like elderly people don't

(39:09):
who don't have the savvy to question like the technology
or the methodology. I always know what's an Indian do
because they say my name correctly. I'd be like They're like,
may speak to Mr Be And I'm like, oh, you're
calling from good what's going on there? Not calling from Kentucky?
Because no, They're like hello, they speak to Mr Du

(39:29):
and I'm like, oh wow, what's good. But they also
did analysis of like the areas that are getting the
most calls, and some makes sense, like they're bigger areas
like l A and New York, but then other ones
are like Atlanta has by far the most robo calls
in terms of like area code stats four or four
is the hottest area for robo cause, which I get

(39:51):
because well, I wonder how I think it's part to this. Literally, yeah,
it's ludicrous. U hold he was like matter oh one,
but this oh three one call Maryland, but this uh

(40:12):
you know, like I think for Atlanta it could make
sense because there's a huge governor's race there and there
could be money pouring in for like elections. Then Dallas
in Houston that could also be because elections are very
important in that state. But then it starts to trickle
down and then you see like Miami also another big
state going on with governor race. Then it's l a
New York Dallas. But you can like look up your

(40:32):
area code just to see how LYDIA your area code is.
And yeah, I mean people are getting up. Every single
one of those cities has a lot of English as
a second language to yeah, Miami, a lot of sl
I think you might be able to get someone with yes,
I don't understand and I r s yeah, because the
share of it is it's basically payment reminders are then
like telemarketing is about someone to sell you something scams,

(40:57):
So it's mostly this scams and their lives be too big.
That lives me first of all, I hate what I
have coming to arrestue. Yeah, they're coming to arrest you.
And I called back. I called back and it was like,
you owe us nine hundred and forty million dollars or
thousand dollars. I was like, come on, man, I haven't
even made that much money in my life. That lies

(41:17):
too big. That lies too big for me to even
so something for you, like bring cash, but also give
us your bank account. Great cash, but can you give
us your bank account now so we can check you
have the money? Well I don't. I was like, Also,
you know what I hate. I hate that they use
your own area code because I'm a paranoid dude. Yeah,

(41:37):
I think it's my hospital and saying like, yo, somebody's
dead right now. And sometimes I do answer my area
code and it is something, you know, like hey, this
is a one time my mother's office had called because
they wanted to surprise her for her birthday. If I
thought that was a robo call, I wouldn't have had that.
Like my mom's office called me, and I also get
an email. Man, don't be calling people that should just

(41:59):
agree even in the world that if you called me,
I think something happened. Yeah, I don't know. I called
people anymore. So if you called me, I'm thinking, like,
somebody is the fifteenth floor of a building. I was
on a date a couple of days ago, and uh,
all right, it was like ten pm and it was
like pm it was and I got a call from
a Chicago friend and she called. I think I gotta

(42:20):
answer this, so I like, I answered it, and she goes, hey, Han,
what's up and just like you know, shooting the ship
And I was like, oh, was it. I can't answer this.
I can't I can't talk right now. And she goes, oh, well,
why did you answer? I was like, because you called.
I answered because you called, like I thought you were dead,
like you had something. But if you are nothing to
talk about, I gotta go. It was somebody I know. No, Okay, okay,
this is a regular ship. Ship called. You can get

(42:43):
messy after the break and we're back and hold on
to your max as a McDonald's and see too. This
NeXT's because McDonald's Breakfast is coming for those arteries. They

(43:07):
just have announced they're briefing up the breakfast selection. Now.
I don't know about I think we all realized as
we were talking about the story that we love McDonald's breakfast.
I would give up regular McDonald's. I could eat McDonald's
breakfast that hands down. If I had to choose between
the two, I have picking breakfast. How long have I?
When I moved to l A and October twelve, on
the way here, I got a double cheeseburger and that

(43:28):
was the last time I've had McDonald's regular menu only
only done. I've only done their breakfast. You're gonna love
this because this is now they're basically dropping something called
the triple Breakfast Stacks. Hallelle. When you look at these photos,
I'm telling you, they look like double cheeseburgers. They say

(43:48):
this is from McDonald's. The triple breakfast stacks come with
two slices of melty American cheese between two savory hot
sausage patties. They're topped with crispy thick cup bacon and
an egg. Guests can opfer their choice of a total McMuffin,
bunn biscuit or sweeten savory mcgriddle cakes. Now, apparently this
was all born out of customers on their own, just
hacking the menu and being like, just let me stack

(44:10):
these on my own because the sandwiches aren't enough similar
to the mcsurfing turf, which I've brought up on this.
Oh that's we get a flail fish sandwich and a
double border pounder with cheese, and you put the fish
patty in between the double quarter pounder and there's your
mixed surfing. Wait you ate. The person has to order
both and do that themselves. They do it. No, No,
you have to order. They don't. Sometimes they'll oblige you.

(44:31):
I've been to one where they will be like, okay,
I can make you a mixer. What neighborhood is in
North Hollywood? That makes sense, Yeah, you're not gonna get that,
like Sherman Oaks. But other times Sherman Oaks, I mean
the Sherman I grew up here, Sherman Oaks. McDonald would say,
I think Boe, I think like like calabasas well, relative
relative to me being a valley scum kid, like going

(44:53):
to North Hollywood and like Sherman Oaks is the closest
nicer place. But what what's the what's the hierarchy of
the valley, the hierarchy of the value is it? Like
there's is none. I'm from the valley and I just
hate all this fucking valley hater ship. But is it like,
is it like Recita is worse than Encino is worse
than van Like the more affluent areas of the valley,
Like you're in Cino's calabasas parts of Woodland Hills. I

(45:15):
mean there's also parts of Wooden Hills. They're a little
little less studio city considered the valley. Yes, it is
a very nice part of the valley to Glendale too. Yeah,
Glendale's got the bank, the bank, Yeah, Burbank, very conservative
and basically half owned and ran by Disney, that entire city.
But yeah, I mean like there's everything else to me,
Like it's all valley to me. But like I guess, yeah,

(45:35):
like just think of this. If it's in the hills
near the valley, that's those are typically the people in
the valley. Are they like people if you live in Recida,
are you like if you live in vans Like, screw
studio city. I mean people might based off their high school.
But I grew up, I grew up partying all over
the valley, so I was never like I'm not going
to Vanie. I'm like, is there a fucking party there? Like,
let's go again, Okay, anyway, So yes, bottom line, are

(45:59):
you love it this? This DIARYE to this menu? Because
when does this release? And when does this have? Did
I say when this? When this? I think it's it's soon. Okay,
it's pon us. When this releases, let's both get oh yeah,
and let's do a review one of our I mean,
I'll yeah, fine, let's yeah, so what we could do it?

(46:20):
Right now? Let me figure out when? Yeah, I did.
I did a McDonald's commercial a couple of years ago. Uh,
a chicken McNuggets commercial if you guys want to YouTube,
but it's called chicken mcgog. I thought it was the
buttermilk chickens. I did that too, But I did this
one which was a it was it's called chicken nuggets
a dizzy and it was like, when you're eating chicken
McNugget with friends, you have to create an order so

(46:41):
that everyone gets a fair share. So you have to
start with Alex, then go to Brian, then go to
you know what I mean, like Ne. It was like,
but today your friend William cannot go by Bob. That
was the That was the commercial. So I was doing
the commercial and we shot all day and they were
like we have a spit bucket for you. And I
was just eating chicken nuggets all day long and then

(47:02):
you have a spit bug and I'm like, I don't
need that spit buging. I was like a chicken nuggets
all day long, so I just kept eating them, eating them,
eating them, eating them. And then they go all right,
we're breaking for lunch, so we break for lunch. I'm
full as hell off, like forty chicken mc nuggets. They
had this amazing cater like lobster shrimp like steak meal,
and I couldn't eat any of it because I hated

(47:25):
That's why he got there all like we had a
spit bucket, and I was like just watching people like
eat crab legs and like lobster besk, and I'm like,
I'm filled with chicken products. Yeah. Man, that was like
that's a commercial rookie mistakes. No, I've had that before too.
I was chewing. I did a seafood commercial and I

(47:45):
don't eat sea food anyway, so I would have spit
it out anyway. But man, every bite right in that buffet, everybody, well,
the Triple Stack Breakfast, it will come out Novembers everywhere
already everywhere. So well, I mean that's when they say
i'd imagine, but that doesn't mean just like prime locations.

(48:06):
I figured they already have the ingredients. It's like, yo,
just throw this ship, you know. Do you know how
they determine when they're doing the McRib m hmm. Well,
first of all, it's not a chain wide thing. You
can do like an owner of McDonald's can say I
wanted to the McRib whenever they want, like franchise owners
can do that. But it's literally based on the price
of chicken versus the price of pork. So when the
price of chickens go up for whatever reason, then they

(48:29):
go like, oh we got because they like buy more
pork because usually the price of chicken and pork are
inverse to each other. Okay, so they're looking into pork
futures chicken futures. Good to know. All right, Well let's
move on to another thing. Uh yes, I think we
should love. The day was like as we've talked about,
like everything we'll talk about, basketball, music, we talked about
like when we're about to talk about wrestling. McDonald talked

(48:50):
because last week, don't know nothing, I think it was
last week our guest Danielle Redford was on and she
is a huge wrestling fan, and as the Jamal show
G thing was going down with his murder, we were asking, yeah, thinking,
we were asking. We were asking about, you know, like
the w w E doing a lot of events there
and what that what the future is like. And at

(49:10):
first we were asking her as a fan, which you thought,
but Jakes, you're saying like, now there's more and more
is happening, More and more is happening. Yeah, it's been
a it's been a crazy week for the w w E.
So they have Crown Jewel coming up, which that's that's
the event, that's the pay per view and w w
E has a ten year, multimillion dollar deal with sada

(49:32):
uh and they had one earlier this year. Greatest were rumbled.
This one was this year, right, and then the whole
thing started happening and they started depressure. So the first
thing they did was they stopped mentioning that it was
in Saudi Arabia because they had already started running the
propaganda commercials like the beautiful Saudi Arabia that ever progressive,
and then that stopped. So now it's just like, hey,
Crown Jewel coming soon exactly without the word without because

(49:55):
they used to be where it was going to be
at Saudi Arabia was in the title and now on
programming they have not mentioned it at all. Right, so
that was the first step. Tickets were supposed to go
on sale last week tickets and not on sale yet.
John Cena has pulled out. John Cena is the biggest
star w W. At the last event, he looks super
fun everybody Kingdom, He's like, thank you so much as

(50:17):
this beautiful country of freedom. And you're like, because he's
a face of the company, Because he's a face of
the company, so he's he's a movie star too. So
you get John Cena saying that that's a big deal,
but you get John Cen to pull it out saying
I'm not going there. That's a big deal. Daniel Bryan
is another wrestler who pulled out, who is one of
the biggest stars, and in the championship match the Ground Jewels,

(50:41):
then he is he is literally in one of the
marquee matches of the event and he's pulling out. And
then also this week and now you know, I can't
go too far without saying this, the biggest star in
the company right now. Roman Rains who just announced on
Monday that Raw that he has leukemia, which is very sad,
so out out to Roman reigns Um But obviously he

(51:04):
can't go for obvious reasons, and he was in the
other championship match. So all of that together, plus they're
getting pressure from the U. S. Government, They're getting pressure
from businesses who do things with w W E and
John Cena, Daniel Bryant. They have the stock to say
I'm not going and let it be known in the news.

(51:25):
But other wrestlers are also saying like I don't want
to go either. The wrestlers are starting to pull out,
and rumor is today or within the next couple of
days that an announcement is coming. They are looking for
new cities. They're they're either going to cancel it all
together or they're looking for new cities, possibly in the USA.

(51:45):
New York City was one of was one of the things.
It's so crazy how important money is. Uh, this deal
shouldn't have been made in the first place, but it is.
We're not going to talk about that. You can't talk
about the past. But yeah, dude, I hope they pull
out of it. I think I think like eventually all
the optics around this, it's just gonna be too much

(52:06):
and there it's going to be radioactive for them. But
I mean, word on the street is about to be canceled. Well,
you know what another word on the street is the
Titanic is about to come back to Kate. Sorry and
Ryan Gosling, but no, this Australian guy, he was behind

(52:27):
the project at first, installed out a little bit, but
now he's come back and said, you know, the Maiden
Voyage is happening going from not the original Maiden voyage
going from Southampton, England to New York, but from Dubai
to New York. How are you not going to trace
it exactly? If you're gonna do, you gotta trace it.
I think they probably have more people interested to pay
the money to do that from there, I'd imagine, and

(52:48):
it's them flying from Dubai to Southampton. You gotta do
it exactly? Well, they will, they will after the Maiden
Voyage then you will be able to do that. They'll
they'll do the actual voyage. Are they not doing the
actual original route in this made a voyage? No, because
I mean I don't know, it would probably be wildly
inefficient to go from Dubai and then trying everybody from Dubai.

(53:10):
You gotta you gotta do the thing. And then where
do they hit the iceberg? You gotta stop, You gotta
do a moment of silence. You gotta have like a
re enactment that because we watch re enactments of the
Civil War and that ship thousand people die. Oh interesting, okay,
so let me let me let me tell a little
bit of a few details before we talk about how
we can turn this trip up. So the new ship

(53:31):
is essentially it's an identical copy. It's like a fucking
to scale replica of the original Titanic, which sang in
nine twelve, as we all know. But this time they're
obviously they're upgrading a little bit, like the hull itself
will be welded together to avoid any damage, and obviously
modern like navigation radar equipment things like that. But they
will have like first, second, and third class tickets you

(53:52):
can buy. So I'm curious if like there really is
like a legit steerage area where like and you go
down like the wild European Imma grants are playing violin,
You're like, yo, this is way better than the stuff got.
They got a period pieces, you gotta you kind of
have to. You gotta have that one. I'm just going
to regular as cruise. If you're not gonna period piece it,

(54:12):
then what's the point? So are would you go? First
of all, if you know, would you go? Would you
create yourself a backstore and say, my name is whatever
I'm coming from into all that like coastplay type of stuff.
But I'll say this, if I had buckets of money, yeah,
why not. I'm not against it. I'm not against going
like I'm not. I never really did the like dress
up as a thing and do a thing, but I

(54:33):
would do it, and I can. I can see the market.
But I don't understand the point of it if it's
not gonna period piece it, because otherwise you're just on
a carnival cruise. Well, I'm sure the people will be
dressed like at the same or whatever, but I want
the chandeliers to look like that. Everything inside will look
exactly same, even that staircase from the movie. Then you
gotta you gotta go. You gotta do the exact route,

(54:54):
and then at the spot where it's sank, you gotta
like stop there. And have like a moment of silence.
You gotta like have the dude scream Iceberg right here,
you have the icebolg right, you gotta you gotta have
some dude fall from the top of the boat that
hit that. Yeah, that is the most iconic part of
every not the not the basketball court side thing. She

(55:19):
was on a plank the size of a basketball court.
Not that right, but just the d and then he
goes the other way. My and my aunt was so
mad when I laughed at that in the theater because
that was when that movie came out. I was like
twelve and thirties and I was bored as hell when
that movie. When that part happened, I'm the only one
in the theater laughing, And my aunt was like, stop laughing,

(55:40):
right right right. It was funny. I have some respect
me and you are cruise people were cruise people will
go on the Titan. I would go on this and
that ship could sink too, because they added more life
they add more lifeboats, so I kind of wanted to sink.
If you do, I want to look in the underground
and stears and looking for that old couple that's holding
each other. That was a lot of Rustan sit. Yeah,

(56:01):
that part of sucked me up. I'm not gonna lie.
You know what else I'm gonna look for. You know
what doesn't wanna look for? If it does hit another
ice wear again, Saints, I want to see if the
crew or those people playing the music actually will stay
this time. I love that. I love that. Steve Harvey Bett,
he was like, you know the band was white. He
was like, no black band, he said, cooling, the gang
will be unplugged, he goes, it goes. The band played

(56:25):
on while the ships sank. That No, it was an
honor playing with you. I would have been I would
have been off that, but I would I would have
took Kate Winslet and Leonardo off that damn door and
swam my ass to shore. He said that they would
have turned over the dining room table, kicked off a
leg using as a rower, had a dinner napkin blowing

(56:45):
in it like a sail. Very funny, is hilarious and God. Lastly,
I just want to end on a heartwarmer, or maybe
it's not a hard one. I don't know. If there
was a picture on Twitter that kind of went viral
of a little a boy in Arizona, who was at
a pizza party and he was the only damn kid

(57:06):
at his own birthday. It's like he's was eight years
old or something. He's a young kid. And all you
see is all these plates set up at like a
Chucky cheese type place. The pizzas trays are full, all
the plates have not been disturbed at all, and you
just see this kid with a look in his eyes
that isn't that is. It's almost a meme. I don't

(57:32):
feel bad at all. And I'm gonna tell you why
I don't feel bad at all. We always find out.
We always feel bad for these people. Let me find out.
He's probably a bully. He's probably an asshole, and nobody
likes that. That's why. That's why nobody showed up because
he's probably an asshole. And I don't know nothing about
that kid, but we always feel bad for the people. Actually,
it takes a lot of work to be the only
motherfucker's birthday. And but then you're saying that because of

(57:54):
that video, some people did you know him up? Because
they hooked him up. So not only he's probably a bully,
he got looked up. The Phoenix Sun saw it and
they offered. They offered him tickets. They offered him take
us to a Suns versus Lakers games coming up on Wednesday,
seven seconds with us. Yeah right. And then also he
got tickets to a Phoenix Cycle Clubs rising. He'll be

(58:17):
the only one there too. He will be the only
one there who watches soccer, the only one. Another event.
We're about to get so many people like, actually I
watched soccer actually sport in the world part in the world.
We were talking about this. I think it's so easy.

(58:39):
What's going on with the mom? Yeah, this is a
parents thing. This isn't the kids thing. Of course, this
is like you said, it was kindergarten, right, he's in kindergarten. Kindergarten,
so yeah, how the funk are you fucking? Like, clearly
the parents are like, yo, that mom, is the invitation
the wrong date on it. He early to his own birth,
the invitation probably had the wrong day. The other thing

(59:01):
is why take a photo of your child in their
saddest moment like that and then post that ship because
we're gonna get Phoenix, Lina. But that's where that's where
these things always begin to fall apart. Where first you're
like oh, that's dope. But just like much like there
was that other kid who was getting bullied, like and
his video went viral of him crying and his mom
was just like like video him and then we turned
out she had some interesting problematic Facebook. There's always someone

(59:24):
you always have to look at the parents, are you
maybe maybe that kid and the mom personally had the
birthday at the same time and day as another person's birthday,
and all the other parents banded together. It was like, well,
we're going to go to the original birthday and well,
you know what I mean, it's saw some big little
lives ship but the phoenix version, so it's a little
like chucky cheesy instead of you know, yeah, going to
the something exactly. Yeah, I mean, that's that's what I

(59:48):
think it is. And there's something this ain't gonna help
the kid. Of course, they're gonna beat his ass when
he snitch. Five knuckles, five knuckles. These kindergardeners all got fence.
They're all going to destroy him on fence to Yeah,
thank god there was no social media. We were kids,

(01:00:10):
all right. Well, Bezi, thank you so much, thanks for
having me, for joining me to KIS. Thank you so
much for helping me host this. Damn Can I say
one thing? Well, yeah, or would order? I'll get to
you and you can have you can say your piece
of a bed? Where can people find you and follow you?
Support you? My Instagram and my Twitter are the same,
but I'm a spell it for you because my name

like that you want to call out let people know

(01:00:55):
something you like you mess with? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yah yea,
yayyayyayaya ya ya ya ya Oh my god, I gotta
read it. It was so funny. It was this tweet
I saw. This tweet is from a tag called art Fucker,
So it has the Charles Bukowski quote and the Charles
Wokowski quote is people run from the rain but sit

(01:01:16):
in bathtubs full of water, okay, And then underneath it
Art says, wow, Bukowski is so profound? Do you also
bathe fully clothed? You dickhead? Oh? Isn't it funny that
a person will eat when they're hungry, but we'll duck
if you throw an apple at their face? Probably love that?
Like that quote makes no sense. You run from the
rain because you're wearing clothes, You sit the bathuple of

(01:01:38):
water because you're not. You know, people, people so dumb.
That's my favorite tweet. What about kis time for you
