connects from your car air conditioned vents and like creates

like those telescopic toy kids from.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Back in the day.

Speaker 6 (08:20):
It was like, yeah, yeah, it sounds and you're like,
whipp it apart. But then guys like dude, I hooked
it up to my air vent to just blow on
my nut.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
Also, I guess you can only have chill balls in

Hybuck your balls. That is our That is our policy
on this podcast. You can get that on National Tattoo.
Fyb your balls. Great, Well, we're thrilled to have you here.
We are going to get to know you a little
bit better in a moment. First, we're going to tell
the listeners a couple of things we're talking about on

(08:59):
today episode JD Vance, which it was reported the J
and D stands for Chance Dance, so it's Jance Dance.
Van is the VP pick uninspired? I don't know. It
didn't inspire me, but apparently it's gonna inspire a whole
lot of money. Well, Tea coming in to the campaign,

(09:23):
so we'll talk about that. We will talk about the
RNC had its first day where I think, while you
listen to this, where it's like in a third day,
but they're going in an interesting direction with regards to
sensitivity towards the assassination attempt on their dear leader. One
of the things that you can do at the RNC

(09:45):
is win a free AR fifteen. So the very device
used to attempt to assassinate Donald Trump, you can win.
You can win a free one. Cool. Cool. So we
use it for like other stuff.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
Yeah, it's a political violence.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
It's for faral hogs.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
It's a regular violence. Yeah yeah, and school violence.

Speaker 1 (10:09):
Yes, not political. Just don't shoot us.

Speaker 9 (10:12):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
And we are going to talk about breaking coming to
the Olympics and then promptly disappearing from the Olympics, which
they Yeah, they've already canceled it for twenty twenty eight.

Speaker 6 (10:25):
That's like the one thing I'm fucking really looking forward
to seeing how they do this, and if.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
It goes enough, they'll probably figure something.

Speaker 3 (10:35):
Why cancel it before it happens?

Speaker 2 (10:36):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Anyway, We'll we have plenty of cardboard in LA that
we can set down on the ground for them. I know,
Like that's the thing is they're having it for Paris,
not not immediately associated with breakdancing and then cancer for
La one of.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
The just you just lost all your Parisian breakdancing listeners.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
I mean, there's great dancing and pair but not great
break is not what I associate the one more of
a cotillion I like to join. That's right, all right,
Kim Kett, Can I call you Kit? Yeah? Of course?
All right, all right, Before we get to any of
that bullshit, we do like to ask our guests, what
is something from your search history that's revealing about who

(11:19):
you are?

Speaker 2 (11:20):
Well? I am currently searching how to move your kiddy
cats to whales. Oh, it is significantly more complicated than
one would think, and I add complications to it in
that I have very high standards for my children.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
Sure.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
So that is my current Google deep dive that I'm
working on it, and so far I'm displeased to learn
that the it's looking like private jet is my only option.

Speaker 6 (11:49):
So what what do you mean, like in a way
that isn't like we'll put them in the bottom of
the aircraft. They could die under their don't pretty much
like that's the horror story with flying with pets is
like exactly, and I.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
Just too long, Yeah, and I just shan't. But also
the UK has like some weird thing where they like,
I don't want my cats flying directly, I mean not
just my cats, but I.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
Don't think specifically enteringeted.

Speaker 2 (12:19):
Yeah, so I don't know, I have to do some
weird rigamarole flying into another country and driving through the
ocean or something like that. So that's what I'm currently googling.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
Working damn driving through the ocean James Bond style, Yeah, exactly,
cyber truck for that. What are waterproof unless it's raining,
I think Elon said, as a cyber boat, I don't know,
unless the water is coming sprinkling from the sky. Yeah,

Speaker 2 (12:54):

think I need it.

Speaker 1 (12:58):

about that before, but like does does car wash mode?

Speaker 10 (13:04):

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Actually it just like roll the windows up? What I'm
very compute? Anyways, Well, I don't know. I don't want

Speaker 6 (13:13):
All windows, locks, the chargeboard, disables windshield wipers, sentry mode,
walk away door locking, and parking censor times.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
It had like go go gadget.

Speaker 1 (13:25):

mode and.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
I want to walk what I was picturing?

Speaker 6 (13:38):
But you got it, Miles, Yeah, you're I know you're
talking about Tim Burton's batmobile.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Baby. Yeah, how are you? Kim? What's something from your
search history? Uh?

Speaker 3 (13:46):
You know, it's been tough times and something happened to
me over the pandemic that's never happened before. Where I
started watching reality TV and I got really obsessed with
ninety Day Fiance. So like the most recent thing I
was researching was the Island Chicken music video because I
just wanted to see, like how many hits they actually have.
Not sure you guys are familiar with it, but it was.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
Less than from It's UK.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I watched them all. I had
some time on my hands, and so I went from
zero to every single episode that's ever been made of
Ninety Day Fiance And now I can't stop. And it's
just it helps me get through life.

Speaker 1 (14:22):
There's a lot of Yeah, soja boy has a lot
of great material.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
Soja Boy has some pops.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
Yeah. I love that.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
You said it as if like this tragic, horrible thing
happened to you during the pandemic, and it was I mean,
and then you said you watched all of ninety Day Fiance,
so I guess it did fit.

Speaker 6 (14:39):
Actually, Yeah, you described one of my passions in life.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
We could have a whole podcast about this.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
Yeah, you need to start a long podcast. We smoke
weed and talk about it.

Speaker 3 (14:52):
You know, I'm in.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
What is something you guys think is underrated?

Speaker 2 (14:57):
Kim and I talk about this a lot. You know,
we received majors and you know, so my dad paid
money for me to learn how to you know, breathe
and sound and roll around on the ground pretending I'm
a puppy, you know that kind of thing. And yeah,
and we've gotten a lot of flak for it over
the years. But now in this day and age, we're like,

(15:18):
everything is tragic. No one knows how to process their emotions.
Everyone is a ball of anxiety. I'm pulling out a
lot of theater exercises to process my daily life. And
so that theater degree, Oh, Kim, and I breathe and
sound into the daily Which.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
Sound can you do? Is a vocalation? Vocalation exactly, but
from a swamp swamp every day? Well, freeze jewel jewels? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
My theater degree is is is not looking so stupid.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
Now, Dad, when you've taken a lot of about it
over the years. Is it just from your dad?

Speaker 2 (16:18):
Honestly, my dad is probably the most supportive one.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
What you know, other people, Dad?

Speaker 2 (16:24):
Yeah, Dad, So Skip shout out to Skip Skip and
peg quarter. They they're they're the best. But uh no,
other people you know, you're like, oh, what's your degree? Theater?
And you just you get looks.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
You get as a as a philosophy major.

Speaker 2 (16:38):
I yeah, yeah, how is philosophy helping you through this tragedy.
We call a country.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
Every day, you know, I just read a little dairy.
How about you, Kim, What's something you think is underrated?

Speaker 3 (16:56):
Bubble baths? I love a bubble bath. I'm just obsessed.
I think they heal everything.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
Yeah, it makes fining presence for her really easy too.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
I just, oh, I bet anywhere I.

Speaker 3 (17:09):
Just stuck for bath. Just throw everything in the bubble bath.

Speaker 6 (17:13):
Are you like a like a self described bubble bather
like you would say like if people are and you're like, oh,
hell yeah, I know with the core.

Speaker 1 (17:21):
What's the what's like the standard bubble bath?

Speaker 6 (17:23):
Like I'm just thinking of like child bubble bath things,
So I don't I know, not of what the professional
would use. My Oh my gosh, sir, I use dish
soap because that's the bubble up.

Speaker 3 (17:34):
Really good, Lord in Heaven.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
No, you need to get a lot of bubbles.

Speaker 3 (17:37):
You need a scent. It's an aromatherapy situation. It's not
just bubbles, like how do you want to feel? And
then you bring that sentence and then candles. I bring
my whole computer in there. I'm watching movies. I'm watching
ninety Day fiance up in the bubble. Man, you have
no idea I live in there.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
Kim, You're not watching movies, You're only watching ninety dots.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
It's just that's your saying, another bubble bath out here.

Speaker 10 (18:05):
You know.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
No, I'm bathing. Actually I'm not even watching against it
take hours, not actually watching the movies for your podcast
and just being no she chilling details with.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
She does relate a lot of things back to ninety
eight and then gets really excited that I don't watch
it because then she kind of has to describe the story.

Speaker 3 (18:30):
To me, you know, so everything relates back to dance.

Speaker 6 (18:33):
I know exactly what that feeling is like, Kim. That
look in your co host eyes as they roll back disinterest.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
Actually point to my eyes when they're rolling like engage. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
what's something you guys think it's overrated being awake?

Speaker 2 (18:59):
Honestly, right now, I just I just feel like there's
just so many times that I'm just like, I don't
know what else to do other than take a nap.
I need to. It's like tapping out. It's like closing
the laptop screen of reality, and I just need to

(19:22):
do that so often, and I just feel like there's
so many like who what wouldn't be solved by people
taking a nap, like all of the the assholes, the oppressors,
take a nap, Just take a nash hush shush hi
and good.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
Night, so they don't enter your they don't enter your
dreams too Freddy style.

Speaker 6 (19:45):
Yeah, it's Freddy Krueger's style for me.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
Then I have dreams like I'm in the Resource Wars.

Speaker 2 (19:50):
That's true. Kim and I are actually not afraid of
Freddy Krueger. We already know how we would defeat him,
and mine would be punching up all of his one liners,
and Kim's would be either laughing sincerely at them and
complimenting him on his.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
One you are or you're so Yeah, I just become
Freddy Kruger.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
Or what's worse is and I've been on the receiving
end of this, and it hurts if if you make
a joke you don't get and Kim doesn't think it's funny.
There's no polite laughter, there's no like a good one.
It's just a blank stare where you just feel like

(20:40):
you have all the time in the world to contemplate
where you went wrong in every aspect of your life.

Speaker 1 (20:47):
He'd just cut off something. Take it never mind.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
Do you want to hear the joke again?

Speaker 1 (20:55):
Did you not get it?

Speaker 2 (20:56):
Or yeah? So I don't Freddy your dreams in my naps.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
I don't worry about making jokes. Making jokes to my
mom should do the same thing. Just be like it was.

Speaker 6 (21:06):
It's the facial equivalent of like, so you're into that. Huh,
that's you're proud of that one.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
It's it's just it's debilitating. It sticks like you.

Speaker 1 (21:17):
It's worse than like someone saying, dude, shut up.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
Yeah, honestly, I'd like and I would welcome Kim being
like you are such a dumb bitch, Like I would
welcome it.

Speaker 3 (21:33):
But yeah, sometimes that's all you have to offer.

Speaker 6 (21:38):
Yeah, I get it. It's power though, it's power, its power,
it's power. Yeah, I appreciate that. I appreciate those displays
of power.

Speaker 1 (21:46):
Being awake. I feel that I had to do. You
ever like remember your dream too well? Like I had
a dream last night. Yeah, and it was just like
I spent the whole night looking for a bag and
it was like just it was like I know I
left it in this house, this cottage on this floor
and just it was not there and I would just

(22:07):
keep it was so boring and so frustrating and just
like so I don't know.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
But were you able to trace it back to like
something that you're struggling with in your consciousness.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
No, I just I just came back from a trip
and probably there was like some stress that I'd leave
a bag behind. It's like very straightforward, nothing interesting or like,
you know, no textures, just like yeah, and what was
in the bag. It was my mom No, it wasn't.

(22:39):
It was just like some clothes or some ship. Anyways.
So I agree. I love sleep, especially that moment like
as you're drifting off when like the brain chemicals just
start dumping in yeah oh yeah. But then yeah, the dreams,
my dreams. I just have notes for my dream like

(23:01):
some network. Yeah, mine are fucking weird. Yeah, last night
I had one.

Speaker 6 (23:07):
I was I was working at an immersive theme park
like as a tour guide, but also I had to
I know, but here's the thing. I had to pee,
so like in real life it was time for me
to pee, and yeah I got.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
To pee, but like I'm still doing this tour and
it was like torn between like ah, fuck, what do
I do? And then pardon me?

Speaker 6 (23:27):
Was like, dude, I got to piss, and then I
just kind of came out of the dream and then
I tried to catch it, like going back, you know
how sometimes like I'm.

Speaker 1 (23:34):
Going back in.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
You just the best.

Speaker 3 (23:40):
You have to pee.

Speaker 6 (23:41):
No, it's been a while I've not like the closest
I've come because I used to like.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
As a kid, I remember my dreams when I pee
the bed.

Speaker 6 (23:47):
I was peeing in the dream, like I found a
bathroom and I started peeing, and then I like, oh,
spaghettio bles, my bed is all wet. But now when
I in a dream, when I see the bathroom, like
I think i've I'm aware.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
Enough of my dreams, I'm like, oh, bro, you you're
about to piss the bed.

Speaker 3 (24:02):
And I'm like, you did that when he was drunk
a lot.

Speaker 6 (24:07):
Oh yeah, yeah, without the dreams, I just did it.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
It was my calling card for a number of years.
What Kim, what is something you think is underrated or
over it? Let's go overrated. Let's try that.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
I had a hard time with this one, but so
I did have to google some options. I wasn't sure.
I put unboxing videos oh, don't get it. I don't
know if those are still a thing. I think for kids,
like the best like the biggest kid YouTubers are like unboxers. Yeah,
but I don't get it, Like why do I watch you, yeah,

(24:45):
get a pretty cool thing, and then I don't have
that cool thing, and then I.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
Just watch you have it.

Speaker 6 (24:51):
I think if you know you have no chance of
getting it, then the next best thing is watching someone
open it and just so you can see what all
the cool stuff that it comes with is someone who
would watch them and be.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
Like why the fuck?

Speaker 6 (25:03):
Because like when I watched them, I felt like it
was right after I forget which financial crash, but one
of them, I was like, oh man, what's in this?

Speaker 1 (25:12):
Like what's in this new fangled like tech thing that
I can't afford? And I'm like, oh, that's cool, that's cool.
And then but I, yeah, that's about it.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
I don't I think I'm too covetous of a.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
Person you'd covet your neighbors unboxing. Oh so you're just
like mad that they got it, and yeah, fuck you. Yeah,
you're just saying you think you're better than me under
your breath the whole time. It feels like that feels like.

Speaker 6 (25:37):
An only child thing. Like I feel like I would
be doing that as an only child, like fuck, because
I remember I remember being at birthday parties as a kid.
I'm like, bro, they got that.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
Fuck like like them? No, I'd be like, man, I
would have. I would have played the funk out of
that toy. But then it's throw it on their pilots
have one hundred toys.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
It just got I would just befriend them so that
I could go over to their house.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yeah yeah, and break it so they can never have
it again.

Speaker 2 (26:05):
Yeah, or try to be like we're trying to bring
like a less cool toy over and be like, look
who this thing is. You can have it if you want.
Maybe I can. We can trade it for like I
don't know, like that that thing that's not even that
cool at all.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
I heard it's like for babies. Dude, Yeah, it's whatever.
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (26:22):
I mean like this is like, this is cool. It's
like a laser toy from Japan. But I take a
toy to help you out, just to help you out, dude.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
Wow? Oh really you like that want the back of
the nose laughter. I feel like that's.

Speaker 6 (26:39):
Okay, okay, wait, so that was on your wish list?

Speaker 2 (26:45):
Really like back of the nose laughter as a description.
That's great. I'm gonna steal that.

Speaker 1 (26:53):
Watch out, he's litigious, will come after you. Yeah, and
everything you own. If I ever hear you saying that.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Well, I kind of think back of the nose laughing
is for babies, though, don't you think.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
I was just joking about being I think it sucks.
Actually whatever, what else, it's yours, it's yours. Actually, I
fucking hate it. I think it's fun. All right, let's
take a quick break and we'll come back and we'll

(27:27):
talk about jd Vance. We'll be right back, and we're back.
We're back, and the Dvance Man jd Vance. Yeah, he

(27:49):
was announced Monday. Yeah a while. It's been a while,
but it just took us a while to get our
head around it.

Speaker 6 (27:55):
And also, yeah, you'll I'm sure you heard us talk
about it on the Trending episode from Tuesday. But yeah,
as we as as we know, jd Vance is Trump's
p pick dance and it was announced in a pretty
non trumpy way. Like most people that like probably would
have expected some weird ass pageant where he's like get
everybody line up, and who is it gonna be?

Speaker 1 (28:15):
No, no, no, no, no, that that fake passes a
VP football at somebody. She just flinched. Little Marco tells
you fuck out of here. It's a joke, you fucking loser.
You fired, fired, You're fired, you preak. So it did.

Speaker 6 (28:35):
It was not like that at all, and you thought,
you know that there would be some kind of coronation
by Trump a ka Van Goll in his Orange period.
But it caught most people at the r n C
that were like in the building off guard, like like
Trump just posted the truth social just very casually and
was like, yeah, I'm selecting JD. Vance to be my

(28:56):
vice president pick. And a lot of people on the
even convention floor didn't notice until Mike Lee from Utah,
the Senator, like announced it during the open role call
where he's like, our delegates are for Donald Trump and
also his vice president pick and my colleague JD.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
Vance. Everyone's like huh eh, oh okay, and then they
were clapping.

Speaker 6 (29:17):
But aside from the lackluster announcement, Vance is like an
is an interesting pick for Trump because typically you pick
someone as a running mate to help like bolster your
like likability or increase support from a certain voting block.
Vance is very trumpy, like he's all in on the
culture war bullshit. He hates women, he hates immigrants like
you get it, fucking hates divorce, all of that shit.

(29:39):
And he appeals to like the hardcore ultra maga set,
but is not necessarily appealing to moderates because like, just
just to juxtapose some information here. So when he ran
for a Senate seat in twenty twenty two in Ohio,
GOP governor Mike DeWine won sixty three to thirty seven,
Vance underperformed ten points fifty three to four forty seven.

(30:01):
So even on that like down ticket, some people are like,
I prefer Tim Ryan over JD.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
Vance.

Speaker 6 (30:07):
And a lot of people are like, there are a
lot of people who would vote like a GOP person
at the higher ticket, but then maybe be go a
little bit more moderate on another office. So some people
are like, oh, that might not help, But again I
who knows, but this like, if whoever's gonna vote for
Donald Trump's going to vote for Donald Trump, and I
think it's gonna be all about turnout more than like
what they can what they can pick off at the margins.

(30:29):
Although sure there are some swing voters. I don't even
know who these people really are, like intellectually at this
point or like philosophically.

Speaker 1 (30:36):
Is what pushed me over the edge, Miles, I told
you before. This is they got me with this one,
with jd Vance the most likely hiring piece of shit. Also,
not that this matters to me, but historically it has
mattered when it comes to politicians height. But Trump very

(30:56):
derisive of Marco Rubio for being little Marco Rubio. Mark
Rubio's five to nine. Jd Vance is five to seven.
He's like a lot shorter the Marco Rubio. Which this is.

Speaker 6 (31:07):
What's really interesting because people again, right if Donald Trump
is six three and J. D Vance is five to seven, oh.

Speaker 1 (31:19):
Huh oh the lift.

Speaker 2 (31:22):
I'm interesting.

Speaker 6 (31:23):
I'm just wondering, how do you know what I mean,
he's reported six, he claims he's six, He's not six.

Speaker 1 (31:33):
Jd Vance thing is like fake news. I don't know, Like, yeah,
it seems way too short, but yeah.

Speaker 6 (31:43):
If you I mean this is again, I mean, this
is where we need Starley Kain again from Miss Show,
to be like how tall is jd Vance?

Speaker 1 (31:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (31:52):
Trump also hates facial hair, which is weird that he's yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
Exactly, but when you're looking at his his voter base,
it's not weird that he chose somebody with a beard,
but it is he does despite the beard. Like JD.

Speaker 6 (32:07):
Vans, I think he says like he looks really young
without facial hair, so he prefers it because he's he's
thirty nine, he's going to be forty like in August,
so he's super young. I mean for like this would
be like maybe the third or fourth youngest vice president.
But also Trump has said on the records, like his
beautiful blue eyes, which can be.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
He kind of like he has like very striking eyes,
which is like a thing like you wouldn't you look
at him from a distance, You're like, this is just
some yokel. You look up close, you are transported by
his eyes. Unfortunately, I do have to I do have
to do it. There was speculation about him wearing eyeliner.

Speaker 6 (32:44):
They're like, do you have that like he's got that
natural fake ass eyelash thing going on?

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Where you got the natural eyeliner or are you in
do you have that natural thick ass eyeliner going on?

Speaker 6 (32:55):
That like natural eyeliner thing going off, or do you
look like somebody who has like a thirty seconds to
mars Field cover band and.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
In the early two thousands in the emo era with
that natural eyeliner.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
Oh yeah, if that was.

Speaker 6 (33:10):
His campaign and him he's like, no eyeliner here, dog.
So I don't know who knows, who knows if it matters, just.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
The wildlifts and full MASc era going on. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (33:22):
Right, So now people are like, Okay, how did we
get to this, because like in the last few weeks
it felt like it's like it's gonna be Marco Rubio
or Doug Bergham, like they both felt like safe, these
like safe GOP kind of picks and had a lot
of support from Trump's big donors.

Speaker 1 (33:37):
A lot of the big donors were like out on JD.

Speaker 6 (33:39):
Vance, Like even before this, they're like, dude, we don't
want Vance, Like we want one of these guys who
understands the hill.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
This guy's too green. We don't like this.

Speaker 6 (33:48):
That's not how we're going to bring in the fourth
Reich no way. So it turns out that Trump had
a lot of people in his ear recently telling him
to go with Vance, like Tucker Carlson and Elon Musk
are two of the bigger names that were vouching for
the former Peterkeel linked venture capitalist in JD.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
Vance.

Speaker 6 (34:06):
So it seems that he's Silicon Valley's pick since he
is familiar with the venture capital world. And it seems
that Trump has been rewarded for picking Vance because it
was also recently reported by The Wall Street Journal that
Elon Musk will now be donating forty five million dollars
a month to a Trump supporting super pack.

Speaker 1 (34:25):
Yeah, it feels like this started making sense to me.
Is that. Yeah, I didn't know Vance was like a
Teal Musk like part, like basically a creature of that
in the way that Pence was like the Koch Brothers,
you know, puppet. Yeah, he Vance is like the Teal Musk,

(34:46):
you know, figurehead who's just like out in front doing
their bidding. And it feels almost like a an incredibly
cocky pick by Trump where he's like not even thinking
about politics, like he's he's really just he's so confident
that he's just aligning all the most powerful people in
the world on his side with this pick. Like the

(35:09):
day before he announced this pick, Musk announced that he
was endorsing Trump. Then Trump announces the pick, and then
it's forty million dollars a month. Forty five, Yeah, forty five.

Speaker 3 (35:19):
So so you think it's the money, not the sparkly eyes.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
The money in the power, I mean, Musk is like
terrorized power can Yeah.

Speaker 2 (35:28):
But I also think that that also makes sense to
me why the announcement was so lackluster in almost like
a petty way, because I don't I think that I
think that Trump doesn't like being specifically bought in that way,
and I think that he had no choice but to
accept the forty five million a month from Elon Musk.

(35:51):
And then the difference is that he's like, but you
have to go with Van So I think, you know,
it's his ego being like, fine, I'll go with your guy,
but like, I'm not going to roll up the red
carpet for him was what it felt like.

Speaker 6 (36:02):
It's interesting, well because I think with anything right, like
every subsequent attempt at office has been about him consolidating
power and like and only really like bringing in the
people that he wants to. So like, yeah, he pushed
out the evangelicals when they were doing making or voting
on the platform last week and he's clearly like I
can do this without you, like I know other GOP

(36:23):
people would have bowed to you. I'm gonna just I'm
gonna keep my distance to do it my way. And
this feels like if he's turning his back on like
the traditional big donor class, then yeah, like to your point,
the tech money feels like a safe bet. But Elon
Musk he denied, Like the Wall Street Journal tweeted that
and then Elon Musk denied it with like a stupid
ass meme. But the Wall Street Journal they came back

(36:44):
and they're like, we don't get like, no, we stand
by our reporting, like we one percent stand by this
bront care what this fool says.

Speaker 1 (36:49):
And when you look at the actual pack, like who is.

Speaker 6 (36:52):
Reportedly being like behind it, it's a lot of people
that are part of Elon's social circle. It's like it's
reportedly run by this guy Joe Lonsdale, who's a co
founder of Palenteer and a close associate of Elon Musk.
There's another guy who's Antonio Gracias, who's a private equity
person and a board director at SpaceX. Yeah, Antonio, Tony

(37:17):
shut out, Tony thanks out.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
Here give it a million dollars.

Speaker 6 (37:21):
And then there's another guy, Ken Howary who's an early
PayPal exach who worked alongside Musk. Like it's all people
who are just close to him that are involved with
this specific super pac. So yeah, it does feel like
a like a power consolidation move. And like a lot
of people have said, like jd Vance has spoken out,
He's like, I'm against big tech, like we ned, and

(37:42):
he applauded Biden going after Google. But I think this
is as I was reading like a more Silicon Valley
specific news, It's like the smaller.

Speaker 1 (37:51):
Startup world, the venture capital world.

Speaker 6 (37:53):
They want these big companies broken up because they're gobbling
up too much of the market. So it benefits them
to break down those monopolies so then they can now
sort of replace them. And like when you look at
people like Elon Musk, you would love to have something
that he could be up there with the Google or
the Metas of the world. But we'll see, it's a
lot a lot of trading.

Speaker 1 (38:13):
Going on behind the scenes. It looks like, do you guys.

Speaker 2 (38:16):
See what I mean about being awake?

Speaker 1 (38:17):
Like it just right, this is a fucking yeah. Now
that you mentioned holy shit, this sucks.

Speaker 2 (38:25):
It sucks, like break on, Freddy Krueger, Like, honestly, Freddy
Krueger twenty twenty four, you know what I'm saying, Like I.

Speaker 1 (38:36):
Just can't at least he thinks are funny, you know, Yeah,
so you can.

Speaker 2 (38:41):
Yeah, Kim thinks are funny too.

Speaker 1 (38:44):
Kim pretend and then Adam and question, Yeah, I am curious,
like listeners who live in or work in Silicon Valley, like,
have you felt a palpable change in just the overall
vibe because it's you know, as recently as the Obama
administration was pretty pretty much a given that like everybody

(39:05):
in the tech world and all the tech money was
on the democratic side of things, even though they there
were these like libertarian ideals on regirding a lot of it.
And now it feels like we're headed in a direction
like we've talked about there being like are we headed
for another like Reagan eighties type thing where like all

(39:27):
the power and all the money and even like some
parts of the mainstream culture are just like on this
like right wing fascist tip, Like I wonder if we're
not headed in that direction, because it feels like things
are moving in a mega fascism libertarian tech billionaire direction,
and that is like a that is terrifying, Like this

(39:50):
version of the next Trump administration with like a musk deeal,
you know, like with with the tech industry like lined
up on his side. Like then we're kind of like
that the tech world is so deeply ingrained in our
modern lives it would be.

Speaker 3 (40:08):
Hard to see getting bigger.

Speaker 1 (40:10):
Yeah, Like Zaslov recently was like, hey, I'm not picking
a side in this election. I just want whoever is
going to be before deregulation of these massive like tech
or media consolidations, which is trun He's like, I'm just
gonna I would just prefer whoever is going to do
what Trump is gonna do exactly. So it's just all

(40:31):
the most powerful people are lining up on Trump's side.

Speaker 6 (40:34):
Someone who's like against body autonomy, and yeah, he's.

Speaker 3 (40:38):
Feeling like a little oh this is maybe good because
no one he's full maga, So no one knew was
being brought to the side like they're not going to
get the quote unquote undecided voters. But now when you're
putting it this way, now I'm even more scared.

Speaker 1 (40:55):
Yeah, like, oh, now what happens if they win, but
it does.

Speaker 3 (40:59):
They're getting money, and then people I thought were on
the different side, Yeah exactly.

Speaker 1 (41:05):
Well there's they're like, you know, recently, there's just been
more and more.

Speaker 6 (41:09):
Outwardly sort of vocal conservatives in tech, you know what
I mean. And yeah, I think they're they have a
ton of money and they want to go against the
traditional powers like you know, the fucking Apple, Google.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
You know, that whole thing.

Speaker 3 (41:26):
And that's why I was going to ask, because they
have less regulations, like what is the well.

Speaker 6 (41:30):
I think the big thing it's like I think the
if they're looking at the entire industry, it's like if
they can dilute the power of like the major companies,
that creates more opportunity for them to profit because of
their like diminished influence. So that's like a good business
opportunity for these like for the sort of.

Speaker 1 (41:48):
World them, just without the fascism. Like, yeah, I think
it's bad to have massive, massive tech companies that are
like more powerful than the government.

Speaker 2 (41:59):
You know, I also hate fascism.

Speaker 8 (42:02):
Hey look it up. And just to be clear, Just
to be clear, I h eight make it a little
accessible for the kids.

Speaker 1 (42:17):
Yeah, So that that's like my read on it is
that he's just like lining up the most powerful people
because he's assuming, he's already assuming he won. Like we heard,
did you guys hear the r f K, the leaked
RFK call with Trump. He RFK just took a video
of Trump like calling him. An r f K is
like looking at the phone like frowning, like what the

(42:39):
fuck's happening? And Trump's just talking for two minutes. Yeah,
but he's like, I'm fucking killing the guy, like this
one's over, like it's a rap. You should join up.
I'm gonna win. And that feels like where he's at
you I can't hear the audio, Okay, you hear it.

(43:02):
Turn up. We send a little bit more of this
out to internet world.

Speaker 9 (43:14):
Frozener, No, no, no, I'm just deep in thought. Okay,
that's this better?

Speaker 10 (43:24):
Yeah, when you when.

Speaker 11 (43:39):
When you feed a baby Bobby vaccination, feed them a
vaccination due both of these guys are fucking cooked man.

Speaker 1 (43:52):
Anyways, what else? What else?

Speaker 10 (43:55):
All of a sudden starting to change?

Speaker 1 (43:59):
Yeah, it's called a baby g growing maybe too for
it's I got a call from Joe and we're gonna win.

Speaker 2 (44:09):
Way ahead of the guy.

Speaker 10 (44:11):
The guy and you know, he said it was very nice.
Actually he called.

Speaker 1 (44:15):
And he said, choose to move. I said, I said,
you know, I was.

Speaker 10 (44:23):
I was looked at straight up, he said.

Speaker 1 (44:26):
I said, I was just showing a jar.

Speaker 10 (44:28):
And I didn't have to tell.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
Him the shark was all the people pouring into a gunch.

Speaker 10 (44:32):
But uh, I'm gonna just turned my head to show
the jar and something ratch. Man, it sounded like a
ghiant like the World's watches mosquito and it was.

Speaker 6 (44:45):
It was a bullet and it was it was a
bullet and it was and it was.

Speaker 1 (44:49):
It's so funny because my friend's mom. Her first reaction was,
do you think it was just a really big mosquito
because the mosquitoes are really bad right now when he
like that when the video for happened and he like
touched his head and then came up with the blood,
but she was like, the mosquitoes are really bad, and
were about his mom saying that too, And then this

(45:09):
comes out. We're like, oh my god, shout.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
Out to join so some like do they know I
know that they were wondering if it was like shattered.

Speaker 1 (45:19):
Glass or something. The bullet hit him a piece of glass.
We don't. We don't know.

Speaker 6 (45:23):
He says bullet because that's the most dramatic and it
could be glass. But either way, the fact means he's
he did get shot at, so yeah, he'll just take
whatever liberties he wants with that.

Speaker 1 (45:34):
It is the I mean, my takeaways from that call.
It's revealing how like buddy buddy at all is behind
the scenes. Like Joe called me, he's very nice. Actually
said this funny thing, and it was anyways, the bullet.

Speaker 6 (45:46):
Yeah, he asked me, how did I know how to
turn my head to the right. It's like he was
talking about like how he won like a fucking local golf.

Speaker 7 (45:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (45:53):
Exhausting, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (46:05):
Yeah, just holding the phone out just in debt. Like
if you've ever like done, like done that thing where
someone keeps talking and you're in the room with someone
and you like point to the phone and you're like
to listen to this. He doesn't even make an encouraging
sound throughout the course of trump. He's not like, I

(46:26):
don't Yeah, it's just anyway.

Speaker 2 (46:30):
You wouldn't hear it anyway, you know.

Speaker 1 (46:33):
But he's he's so charmed by the fact that he
got a call from the President. He's like, it was
actually really crazy the President called me.

Speaker 10 (46:41):
And.

Speaker 1 (46:43):
I don't know, like there are ways in like he
seemed to be at a peak with the photo up
and the surviving you know, just adds to this idea
that he's like this invincible, charmed person.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
But then like, never hearing the end of this, We're
never hearing the end of this.

Speaker 3 (47:01):
But honestly, things change so quickly we probably will, right somehow,
something else is going to come up. And then when he.

Speaker 1 (47:08):
Takes jd VNS, he's not very likable. It is like
a less well known Ted Cruz. Then he has like
a stupid looking bandage on his ear, the thing which
I thought he would like that would be stage managed
better than that. Then he gets caught comparing the bullet
to a mosquito, and then it's revealed he's golfing the
day after. And then he doesn't even call the family

(47:29):
of the supporter who got killed by a stray shot
like that does like he's kind of fumbling the bag
a little bit, which I mean, is like a weird
thing to say in such a serious situation.

Speaker 6 (47:42):
But yeah, but I think that's just like that's just
how the GOP moves in general, like they they they
need it just for a flashpoint to be like you
see what they're doing to us, and then they don't
know how to really play that out much further because
if you think about it again, like you we mentioned too,
someone fucking shot at their godhead figure head, and they're
not even fucking talking about gun connection guns.

Speaker 8 (48:04):
Like they can't even like they can't even.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
C intellectually go there with this.

Speaker 6 (48:09):
So well, you know, some people they're just monsters, but
you know, got to have those guns.

Speaker 1 (48:13):
Like, yeah, they are giving away as you mentioned, uh
in the intro, they're giving away a free air fifteen
at a booth at the RNC, giving away the gun
that was used to attempt to murder their godhead.

Speaker 3 (48:26):
And did kill someone and like many people in our country,
many many, many people, including children, you know, people's.

Speaker 1 (48:35):
But they don't care about that. The booth is run
by the US Concealed Carry Association, a group looking to
promote their membership and fill the NRA's void, also behind
a bunch of dark money that is battling gun control laws.
So that can that's like, that's like it's the idea
of the US Concealed Carry Association even sounds more vile
than the NRA somehow, where it's like, yeah, we're about

(48:57):
like sport guns, like no man, every person it has
that thang on them. It goes where you imagine like
if everybody at that thing had been armed, like how
many people would be dead? Like anyway, The Rolling Stone
asked the US Control Carry Association rep at the who's

(49:17):
manning the booth, whether anyone was touchy touchy about giving
away air fifteen's right after the Trump shooting, and they
said that it was merely a tool that had been
used for something really terrible, like straight up, that could
have been a wrench or a screwdriver that that guy
threw or shoot the president. Yeah, you know what, are
we going to ban shoes now? Anyways?

Speaker 3 (49:39):
Sure remember that guy like threw shoes at like g
w oh, yeah, but he lived. He was fine. He
caught them, yeah, threw them back. Everyone was good.

Speaker 1 (49:55):
Did he catch it and throw it back?

Speaker 3 (49:57):
He kind of wanted it.

Speaker 2 (49:58):
You know, yeah, honestly, like he dodged it in a
pretty athletic way. Like the clip was actually like kind
of impressive.

Speaker 1 (50:07):
Yeah, God damn, these fucking Republican presidents. Whenever somebody tries
to go at them, they always do something impressive. I
was just watching the Reagan clip where like six years
after somebody after the attempted assassination of balloon popped and
he like paused and was like missed me, Like, oh
my god. Yeah, all right, let's take a quick break

(50:31):
and we'll come back and close it out. We'll be
right back, and we're back. We're back, and the Olympics
are still going to happen. Yes, yes, we're preparing for

(50:53):
the Olympics. Wild and potty Games kick off in just
over a week. A lot of attention is still being
focused on the swimming events. Uh, it's normal event, find
a new angle. It's just that they're holding some of
the distant swimming events and triathlon in the Scent River

(51:13):
despite the fact that it's still contaminated with E. COLI. Okay,
we get it, big deal. People are directly in the pool.
But these people are swimming in fine angle.

Speaker 3 (51:28):
Is there no other body of water in the country
of France the people can swim in.

Speaker 1 (51:32):
I don't understand it was it's like they had this
vision that they just like, yeah, like it had to
be in the Seine. It's iconic.

Speaker 6 (51:42):
That's what a perfect encapsulation for just generally, how like
humanity's movements, like, don't do the thing, man, it's all
fucked up. You're like, we're gonna do this, No man,
no man, open mouth.

Speaker 2 (51:57):
Mouth swimming. They're actually to the to the event strokes
and then open mouthed swimming.

Speaker 1 (52:08):
How was this you were there? Did the sent smell
like doo doo or as they necessarily smell more or
less like do doo than you would know? Yeah, then
rivers that I've been around, it smelled like a river
that runs through a city.

Speaker 2 (52:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (52:25):
But the camera angle, I mean that thing runs right
by the Eiffel Tower, and the Eiffel Tower has the
Olympic rings on it, so there can be some cool
shots and that's all the Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (52:35):
Yeah, that's all just you got to do it for
the gram.

Speaker 1 (52:37):
Yeah, you gotta do it for exactly. Someone takes a
big breath and the swimmers want to do it. We'll
find new swimmers. People don't know the difference between a
professional level swimmer and just somebody who can swim, you know.

Speaker 2 (52:48):
Yeah, that's the official the official motto of the Olympics.
This year. Doing it for the gram Doing.

Speaker 1 (52:56):
It got to I feel like that's the motto.

Speaker 3 (52:59):
Of twenty Yeah.

Speaker 1 (53:02):
I mean the Trump's entire persona is just like, man,
that guy is really telegenic.

Speaker 6 (53:08):
Or like people who are like, I'm going to Death
Valley to experience one hundred and twenty eight degree temperatures
and like, did it for the Graham though, I had
to pose would that?

Speaker 2 (53:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (53:16):
You know that's not just a cute nickname Death Valley,
that's yeah, yeah, anyway.

Speaker 2 (53:22):
It's what happens there.

Speaker 1 (53:24):
The big event, the new event that's gotten a lot
of attention in no way involved swimming through feces. It
is breaking aka break dancing aka break in. And we
talked about this a few years ago when it was
first introduced to the twenty eighteen Summer Youth Games and
they announced that it was going to be in Paris,

(53:45):
and I don't know, like people like this. There are
squash players who are up in arms about this because
squash was not included in the Olympics. They're like, oh,
but there, it's an absolute mockery mate. They Australia, they
were Welsh, right, Yeah, Miles handles mockery.

Speaker 3 (54:09):
It's I don't be fair though I had to google
what squash was, and I didn't have to google what
break dancing was.

Speaker 1 (54:15):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (54:18):
Squash is another It's correct me if I'm wrong. It
is another ball plus racket type of situations.

Speaker 1 (54:25):
Pickleball, racket racketball. It's racketball. If the ball didn't bounce as.

Speaker 2 (54:31):
Much, got it so less fun?

Speaker 1 (54:33):
Yes? Exactly? Cool y racketball, you know how racketball. You're like,
I love watching this sport, but it's a little too
care don't anyway, it's too much going on, too fun.
I need I need you to calm this one down
for me. Anyway. Some pass sports is being you know,

(54:55):
if if you're going to hear an elderly relative be like,
what intarnation is this? You can point out that pass
sports have included. They tried to make competitive dog grooming
a sport. They did make in the nineteen hundred Paris
Games pigeon shooting an event.

Speaker 3 (55:15):
Excuse me.

Speaker 1 (55:16):
The one that I think should be brought back is dueling.
They tried to, but it kind of sucked because they
were just shooting mannequins dressed in frock coats. That was
during the nineteen twelve games.

Speaker 3 (55:28):
They just had to beat them.

Speaker 1 (55:30):
Yeah, you just had to like turn in like.

Speaker 3 (55:33):
Oh faster than you.

Speaker 1 (55:34):
Yeah. It does make sense though, because dueling is how
they settled personal conflicts back then, and break dancing battles
is how we settle them today.

Speaker 6 (55:44):
So in my town, these are real battles that we're
talking about. You know what other sport and calls it
a battle.

Speaker 1 (55:56):
No, just breaking.

Speaker 2 (55:58):
So sold I'm sold on this.

Speaker 1 (56:01):
Probably a little bit more athletic than murdering birds and
giving haircuts to dogs. But it's unusual for modern games
in some specific ways, like the judges need to show
their own breaking moves before the competition like that that. Yeah,
it's like, bro, can you even do a windmill? Like,
I'm sorry, I'm both I'm a modern dance instructor. I

(56:24):
don't know much about breaking.

Speaker 3 (56:26):
Yeah, you judges should have to do that.

Speaker 2 (56:28):
I agree.

Speaker 1 (56:29):
Like if the if the figure skating judges had to
like go out and do break dance, I'll give you
a double ancel. I don't even need to triple axle.
Just give me a double you do. I need to
see three. I need to see that three a yeah,
but this is that is a breakdancing tradition called Judges
showcase and it should be fun.

Speaker 2 (56:49):
That's kind of cool.

Speaker 1 (56:50):
I like it, yeah, like get your body ready.

Speaker 6 (56:54):
I think for me to just as someone who like
coming up in like the DJ like B boy scene
and high school. Like the whole fun of it, Like
if you're the DJ is like the battle, like the
break the breakbeat records you put on for people to
break to.

Speaker 1 (57:07):
That is the knowing that like they don't have any
licensing ship, they don't have the music, so it's going
to be like weird official like eliminits. How do you fun.

Speaker 3 (57:19):
Just break dancing to the Olympics. I don't know. I'm sorry, boom.

Speaker 2 (57:27):
Actually they've actually hired they just hired Kim to do it.

Speaker 1 (57:31):
It's like are you ready to break?

Speaker 6 (57:33):
Here we go five six, seven eight. This is just
some default Cisco hold music we got because they don't
you can't license anything else.

Speaker 1 (57:51):
Like that's what it feels like. But don't tell me.

Speaker 2 (57:53):
You're not excited when that sick beat drops on Hold. Okay,
it's but here's my question. I forgive me if this
is a dumb question, but.

Speaker 1 (58:03):
Like I will not be able to I just have
I'll just leave.

Speaker 2 (58:07):
If it's bad, I'll I'll just go It's the Olympics,
you know what I mean. I'd imagine there's some money
behind it, there's some press, there's there's a machine behind it.
I don't understand why they wouldn't be able to get
the licensing, especially because we have other competitions that use
license music like figure skating, gymnastics all of that. So

(58:28):
I don't even understand the mechanism by which that would
be an issue.

Speaker 1 (58:32):
It continues the great tradition of our modern world of
just spending all the money in the exact wrong places. Yeah,
like spending probably spending like one hundreds of millions of
dollars trying to clean the shit out of the Seen River,
and spending like a couple million on fucking just getting
good music for the breakdancing competition. It feels like it's

(58:55):
like a cool idea that everybody was immediately like embarrassed
by and like are just like kind of half assing, Which.

Speaker 2 (59:02):
That's lame, because I feel like it would be cool.
And I've never given a single solitary shit about break
dancing in my entire life until write this second, But
like now I feel like I want to, like campaign
for it or something like help them out.

Speaker 3 (59:15):
Let's start at this campaign, all right, let's do it.

Speaker 1 (59:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (59:18):
Breaking in the games also like yeah, like when it
comes to La, like that feels like like this is
a this is a major city that had a handle,
like the evolution of hip hop.

Speaker 1 (59:28):
Like yeah, why don't we have break in here in
and like the subjectivity of it doesn't.

Speaker 10 (59:34):
Like.

Speaker 1 (59:34):
Some of the most randomly captivating moments I've had watching
the Olympics are events like rhythmic gymnastics and like that,
where it's just like, would they with the little beach ball?

Speaker 6 (59:44):
Yeah, they're doing like little beach ball things or whatever
that's called.

Speaker 1 (59:47):
I'm I don't give a subjective Yeah, oh yeah, rhythm dancer,
Yeah yeah, ribbon dancerund.

Speaker 2 (59:58):
Yeah, don't pretend like y'all have a gotten some sort
of ribbon and flung it around and yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:00:04):
Yeah no, that's a common birthday party like parting, you know,
gift that you get at a kid's birthday party. Oh,
and then you try and do the little fucking tornado. Yeah,
watch I fucked that ship up. And then my kids
are okay, great man, no reaction, Yeah, they give you

(01:00:25):
the kim Yeah reaction. So okay, so you think that's cool. Okay,
I was just checking that you thought that was cool.

Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:00:34):
Yeah, but it's already not part of the twenty twenty
four games or twenty twenty eight games as of right now,
which seems nuts considering that, unlike Paris, La was one
of the hotbeds in the early days of the art form.

Speaker 2 (01:00:46):
Kim and I will take care of that, don't you worry.

Speaker 1 (01:00:48):
Okay. I didn't want to like come out and ask it,
but we did have you on for this story specifically,
break do something, Okay, the same breaking they are doing
flag football in the Olympics. Instead of breaking, it's like,

(01:01:08):
come on, guys, yeah well yeah sure, but like they
get squashed next time, so that one person, can you know,
just hold on to travesty might yah, yeah, might to.

Speaker 6 (01:01:22):
But yeah, but I think flag foot flag football is
just so that feels like less like breaking at least
feels like artistic. It like required, like not to say
flag football doesn't, but that's like a game we grow up.

Speaker 3 (01:01:33):
Playing play that like powder games in high school.

Speaker 6 (01:01:36):
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, And I get like track is
simple or whatever, but there's still like a level of
like I don't know, So we'll see what the flag
football looks like, but I feel like it'll yeah, look,
just sort the music out and you could probably have
something like akin to what these like great looking like
break dancing competitions look like. But that's the hard part
because the Olympics are they have a great track record

(01:01:58):
with this kind of stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:02:00):
So we'll see. Well, the sprinting though, the sprinting, the sprinting,
I'm ready for the swimming in the pools. They are
going to what's that no, open mouth river, swimming, open mountain.

Speaker 2 (01:02:19):
All swimmers are going to have like like just explosive diarrhea, like.

Speaker 1 (01:02:25):
Not horrible skin rashes. Yeah. Yeah. They will be shipping
in the Olympic pools too, just to make it. Yeah,
there will be ship floating.

Speaker 6 (01:02:35):
And we're about equity here. Yeah, everyone take it up
real quick. There's free bree, some bree that's kind of
pasted its date and your stomach up and just blasting
in the pool.

Speaker 3 (01:02:47):
Yeah, that's what chlor is for, you know exactly exactly.

Speaker 6 (01:05:08):
A couple of tweets I like. First one is from
at Roger tweeted my number one younger millennial trait is.
I am young enough that playing video games is a
lifelong hobby of mine, but old enough that I have
absolutely no desire to play online against strangers.

Speaker 1 (01:05:21):
My beef is with the computer, and the computer only.

Speaker 6 (01:05:25):
Outsiders do not need to get involved, and I felt
that shit because.

Speaker 1 (01:05:30):
I've only known the computer to be my enemy as
an older game player.

Speaker 6 (01:05:34):
And another one at Year of the Wizard tweeted smoking
weed when you're bald must be like, damn, I'm so
fucking high and I'm bald.

Speaker 1 (01:05:47):
As a bald smoker. I was like, bro, I never
thought about that, but I'm gonna do that now.

Speaker 2 (01:05:53):
Truer words never spoken.

Speaker 1 (01:05:55):
Show a couple of tweets. I've been enjoying Brandy and
tweeted jd Van's always looks like you should be wearing
a bib, which is true, and then Kant's at Kant's
e y Y tweeted the picture of Trump with his
little ear bandage and it says when you order a
pillow at on Timo. Yes, you can find me on

(01:06:21):
Twitter at Jack Underscore. Brian. You can find us on
Twitter at daily Zeitgeist, at the Daily Zeitgeist on Instagram.
We have a Facebook fan page on a website, daily
zeit geist dot com where we post our episodes and
our footnotes were like off the information that we talked
about in today's episode, as well as a song that
we think you might enjoy Miles Well's song you think
people might enjoy.

Speaker 6 (01:06:41):
This is a track from a new producer that I
just came across called Sarah the Instrumentalist. It's an American
beat maker and her sound is like, oh Man, like
high tech jay Dilla if you like that production, like
songs q Tip produced for tripal Quest. It has that
like old school jazzy boom backfield to it, but there's

(01:07:03):
something modern about it which I really like. And you
know she's really making those beats because she doesn't use
any quantization, no quantize on these beats. They're all hand played,
just like jay Dilla intended. So anyway, this is a
track from Sarah the Instrumentalist called This Makes Everything Better,
which maybe is a good title that we could just
listen to it for now while you go to sleep tool.

Speaker 1 (01:07:26):
Yeah right, well, we will link off to that in
the footnotes. Today. He's Like Guys is a production of
iHeart Radio. For more podcasts from My Heart Radio, visit
