Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of the
Weekly Zeitgeist. Uh. These are some of our favorite segments
from this week, all edited together into one uh NonStop
infotainment laugh stravaganza. Uh yeah, So, without further ado, here

(00:22):
is the Weekly Zeitgeist. Well, we are thrilled to be
joined by the very funny and talented brighter and podcaster
who you can hear on the wonderful NBA Baseline podcast
uh and his new podcast Never Meet Your Heroes, which
he tells you all the most shocking details and twists
and turns from celebrity back stories like Mark Wahlberg Shila

(00:44):
buff We'll have to ask him if he included Miles
Gray's rat on the limit in the UH in that backstory.
Also Michael Jordans, He's one of the best follows on Twitter.
Please welcome back to the show. Jabari OHI David. Hey guys,
I appreciate you having me again. I'm not gonna alloe
to you. I've already made the determination I'm never going

(01:05):
to over you know, like out do you guys? With
the intro, So my a k A is a co
worker last week told me you're exactly like sugar Knight
except for nice. And I guess what they really mean,
because I've been told this many times before, is you're
a big black guy with shaved head, so that's cool,
and you got a beard too. Nice good. It was

(01:27):
right there, It was right and you know what I'm
stealing that right? You got? He's like, oh, I'm like sugar,
and you hold their ass over the edge of your
royalties right now? Yeah, exactly. You think that you're stereotypical bullshit?
Remind me another time. I'll tell you. I'll tell you
a story about signing up for that man's you know,

(01:50):
that man's big hit song at karaoke there in the
valley and he walked out because he was upset. Oh
wait what he was at the karaoke bar in Ireland
thirty two. It's a it's a spot that's over there.
I think, what is it like Burbank or not Burbank,
like Van Eyes or whatnot? I was there, you know,
Rob Vand was it Rob band Weak? Vanilla Ice was there.
He was in the bag. He's having a good time.

(02:10):
Folks are showing low. So I figured, hey, look we're here,
we're gonna go ahead and do this. I signed up
for it. The song came on, he gets up and
walks out because, like, I guess it was offended by it,
but whatever, because you did maybe Yeah, it's like broken
what we know you're from? Yeah, I thought it was
respect that song. Have you ever made loving an inner tube?
But Vanilla ice off of to the extreme? Is that

(02:33):
a song? That's not the title, but he talks about
making loving an entery tube, which is like the sort
of thing that a middle school student which I was
at the time, or I think elementary actually would like
think was cool, Like yeah, anyway, had sex would be
like that. That sounds really like uncomfortable and difficult. You

(02:53):
gotta come from Tuban culture, not just Retuban but inner
Tuban and embrace your inner Tuban while you're inner Tuban
as filize. Yeah, we like to ask our guest, what
is something from your search history? Last night, I was
reading about boxers because everybody was watching the no like

(03:14):
like like the Fisty Cuffs was because m my friend
Jay King was talking about Logan Paul, the logan or
Jake Paul who's the one who fights mm A or
whatever they both do, just talking about how Jake is
like a good character for fighting because he's like a

(03:35):
villain and everyone knows it and wants to see him
get punched in the face. And if you know that,
you're the guy back to the karate kids. If you're
the guy that like people will tune in to see
you get punched in the face and you're cool with that,
that's a good lane. That's a good lane. So yeah,
I was comparing him to other I was trying to
look up, like who were some other like famous Irish boxers,

(03:59):
and then I found this guy whose name I already forget,
but who was like a famous Irish boxer who was
also like an actor, and I was like, that's Jake Paul. Yeah,
and he was he also doing like black people versus
white people boxing matches too. I mean, I think that
was also what the nineteen thirties was all about, right
in the ring folks, right, because I was like, Oh,

(04:20):
it's weird that all the boxers were black, Jewish, Italian
and Irish almost like those are the people that had
to take the money to get their lives punched out, right,
Like sort of did you see yesterday? A lot of
people are like, did he take money to lose that fight?
Because everyone was like, if you just kept fighting him,

(04:41):
you would have probably won. But then Woodley lost in
his spit decision. Yeah, and everybody was mad because they
just tuned in to see Jake Paul got his lights clock. Yeah.
And that's the thing, you know what, And it's perfectly
as a money making scheme, that's what you do. It's like,
well that's what I was saying, like for a YouTuber,
if you can get paid to just get punched in
the face and you get like a few million dollars
every time, Like do that, untol and you're an idiot

(05:04):
who doesn't need a brain to function, Keep doing that. Yeah.
But then also recently I looked up the Paul siblings
and found out we have the exact same white ethnic
background related to the brothers. Yeah, they're a little bit Irish,
English and a little bit German and Jewish allegedly, Okay,

(05:29):
I think I was also like, the Paul brothers are Jewish,
Like I know nothing? And also is that my internalized
anti Semitism for seeing these blonde idiot guys and not
thinking try you know, aryan gods fighting on pay per
view or most people are. The other part is I

(05:50):
like how many people steal the fights to to also
be like, first of all, I need to see him
get his as beat. Part two, I'm not paying to
get his ass beat because I know part three he
probably has the fight rigged or something. I don't know. Yeah,
he keeps fighting. I mean he's carefully like selecting his opponents.
Even though this guy was a professional mm A fighter

(06:10):
who used to be successfully, he hadn't want to fight
and like eight fights and he's smaller than him, he
keeps fighting people who are much smaller than him because
he's figured out that that's a massive advantage people basically
outside his weight class. They're sort of turning it into wrestling,
which is like, yeah, pretty smart. Yeah, absolutely, it's very

(06:31):
I mean if he hadn't invented himself, like a like
wrestling or like boxing promoter would have invented him to
make money off of like evil social media influencer guy
who everybody wants to see get destroyed, who like keeps
selecting his his opponents so that they will never destroy him.

(06:54):
And we just keep tuning and being like this is
the one I really want. The guy who's sixty lighter
and a nine inches shorter. This time. This will be
the one that will be Yeah, I had no hope
for this last one. I am hoping that he fights
Myles Garrett though, the guy from the Browns, who would
just fucking demolish him. I hope he fights Miles Great. Yeah,

(07:15):
I was gonna say. I thought, yeah, yeah, I feel
like Smiles I back. You could take him, fight dirty,
you could sucking you could, you could hurt Jake Paul
or I'll just start off crying again. Though. You might
just see him at a Calabasas house party and like
right exactly and then like push him. He looks at
you the wrong way, and he says, he says, what

(07:39):
are you doing? And he does look just like Zapka,
the villain from the Karate Kid if he's like, hey,
what are these uh East Valley kids doing out here
in count Basses? Like, oh, what are we doing here? Well?
Maybe and then we're just all the goons come in
and we and we steal all the things that aren't
nailed down like we would at old house parties. And

(08:00):
does everybody come out o this ashtray? It was made
of marble? What is something you think is overrated? Yeah?
I don't know Honestly, I feel like somebody must have
said this at some point, but I'm just gonna throw
out almonds. When he talked about almonds, yeah, I mean
they take up way too much water. Yeah yeah, and

(08:23):
they just kind of taste like ship. Yeah, it's like
what if what if peanuts were like made of wood,
you know, we're made of the vibe though that is Yeah,
they're like they're like splintering your mouth. I'm with you,

(08:44):
like they're like and then yeah, they raw like a
raw almond is just like I have the same thing
with carrots. It's just something about the texture. Yea bad.
I'm not the big and they're they're like bad for
you know, all that water to use a Yeah, no
funk almonds for real? Like does this extent to almond

(09:05):
milk for you? Yes, yes it does. It does because
we have oat milk now, so we don't need almond
milk anymore. And coconut milk if you're if you're trying
to replace like whole fatty milk, coconut milk is really good. Yeah.
And you know what, people don't funk with coconut milk,
which I think is wrong. I feel like coconut milk
is underrated. Yeah, maybe that should be my underrated You wait,

(09:30):
so you're saying you're the two of you like you
just look at almonds and you're like, good, get them
away from me because I like a I mean, look,
I like a roasted almond. I'm not the thing it's
got to be roasted, right, yeah, not in its natural form?
Well what most of the nuts we eat are roasted
right on some level. Like I don't eat rock gass shoes.

(09:52):
I don't eat raw peanuts. I don't eat raw nuts.
You know what I mean, I don't. But you know
how it is. I'm saying, if it's like rock as
shoes delicious, Oh rock ashes are delicious, Yeah, absolutely delicious,
obviously better with extra you know, roasting flavoring. Sure, but
I think, oh, natural cash whose are fucking dope? Okay.

(10:16):
I just I feel like almonds became the default nuts
at some point in the past, like ten years over peanuts. Yea,
the healthy hard because they take a fucking it's I
think it's something like a gallon per nut. And you're like, what, no,

(10:37):
knock it off, fucking knock it off. We don't we
don't need amo. That's where I'm like, we don't need
almost that bad. You're not even that good, right, I
don't think they're that good. And yeah, like like when
you look at the water usage, like the little like
curbs that they put on consumer like water consumption like
regular gen pop water consumption, like it's the smallest dent

(11:02):
in the world when you compared to just like doing
anything to agriculture, like because they just like use all
the water, right Yeah, because yeah, when you go down
it's like, yeah, this is how much water and almond takes.
It's like, yeah, but what about all the live stock
that's where that's where the real water is going. Yeah. Ship,

(11:24):
what is something you think is underrated? The show Leverage?
You have? You just seen leverage. I have not, Okay, leverage,
Leverage rules. Leverage is basically the premise of the show
is every episode is It's It's It's It's a forty
minute heist movie with con artists, except they basically like

(11:45):
they they steal from the rich and give it to
the poor people, and they do it by just running
incredibly elaborate and absurd cons on people who suck and
it's it is an extremely good time and more people
should know about it because it's just it's it's just fun.
Where where can you watch it? Is an old show?
Oh yeah, it was on from oh eight to two twelve. Yeah,

(12:07):
there's a new season two that I I think you
can watch an Amazon Prime or something. But yeah, it
was originally and it's like a very it's a very
like post two eight show in like the best way
that I only sort of vaguely remember because I was
like twelve, but like you know, it's it's very post
to a thousand and eight in that like there's a

(12:28):
bunch of rich people and they're all bad and the
goal of the show was to screw those people over.
And it's okay, right right right, just like anger about
the the session and the subprime lending ship. Yeah, yeah,
you know, and it holds up right like even even
when they brought the show back, Like a lot of
the sort of old shows that they reboot like are
bad because they don't you know, the premise of whatever
was about is like and like you know that that

(12:50):
Robin hood nous that you really speaks to you, Yeah,
it's a Robin hoodness. And then also this I just
I like heist movies and this is like this is
like five Seasons of high movie that's also con artists,
which is just extremely fun. Okay, it's funny because that
was one of those shows too where I just saw
the poster and I'm like, I don't know what that's about. Yeah,

(13:12):
I don't know what it's about. It's vague. Looks like
people standing in front of a truck. Okay, maybe they're truckers.
But now, okay, this is interesting. Maybe I have to
check this one. Yeah, it's a it's a good time.
It was a t NT original. It looks like, yeah,
that's when I was. I would never cast my eyes
upon anything from TNT. So yeah, this all tracks from

(13:36):
me back then. If you had suggested a t NT original,
we would have cut your feed. Yeah, it's not allowed out.
I do feel like there are a number of shows
like from that tear of cable, like, um, I think
Suits is one of these that I I just don't

(13:57):
I never gave a chance, purely because they or on
t NT or USA, and I was like, well, yeah, okay, yeah,
like I'm gonna watch that White Collar and they're probably
I probably should have, so I will check it out. Leverage,
which you can watch on Apple TV for free if

(14:19):
you have an Apple or the is that what it's
called Apple TV or Apple plus whatever that is. They
have replaced from the main characters with an iPad. However,
it's as we talked about on yesterday's episode, the Apple

(14:39):
original programming is all just shot through with like kind
of the most aggressive product placement of all time. But
all right, well, let's take a quick break and we'll
be right back. And we're back and we're just gonna

(15:03):
do like a general check in with the state of America.
But before we do, we were realizing before we started recording,
Jabari that the last time you were on was January five.
It's been kind of an uneventful eight months since. Uh no,
that's so the day before the insurrection you you were

(15:24):
on here last. So I'm just warning people, you know,
watch out for tomorrow Tuesday. We'll see what happens. Don't
sleep on the influence of nice exactly, grow with the
gravitational pull of Jupiter. There you go, There you go.
But Miles, you were kind of, uh you put together
some thoughts on just sort of this idea of America's

(15:46):
practice of selective empathy. Yeah, it's just like you know,
like just like last time with the media not talking
about Afghanistan in one way, Like now I look at,
you know, with the conversation talking about resettling Afghan refugees.
I was just you know, seeing how the momentum was
moving very swiftly, you know, because there's about eighty eight

(16:07):
thousand Afghans that assisted, you know, occupying American and Allied
forces during the Forever War. And now the US is
like obviously scrambling to relocate these people to fulfill a
moral obligation um since you know, like leaving them and
their family members behind in the places like Taliban is
like trying to have retaliatory attacks against these people just

(16:30):
is what it should be done on a minimum level,
if not more people. And then you look at the polling, right,
Americans are pretty much on the same page like Democrats,
sevent of Republicans are saying like yeah, we like we're
I'm open to I I'm not opposed to resettling these
people in America and understand like that the narrative is

(16:51):
they helped the the army, so they should just like
that's their ticket to the United States. And another story
where I read about these South Florida Republicans who were
very enthusiastic about welcoming these people. And I'm not I
don't have any opposition to the fact that they're open
that they feel, you know, aligned with this sentiment. But

(17:13):
it just says like a lot right because like, at
a minimum, it acknowledges that these people put themselves and
their loved ones in harm's way to help the United
States military, and they understand like the reciprocal nature of
this transaction, Like that's okay, we get it, y'all all
could have got sucked up helping the US. Are are
are you know, brave men and women out there? So

(17:33):
this this you know, equates to a ticket back. But
like this other way to sort of underlines this fucked
up way in which Americans choose to have empathy for
displaced people, Like if you are working in service of
the American war machine, then it's a no brainer that
you know, like oh man, like because then it's like
you were one of the good ones, you know what

(17:54):
I mean, Like we came fucked up your country, you
still helped out, you know what. That's worth a ticket
back here, We thank you, thank you, thank you. And
then you know, and then even though like normally the
narrative around Afghan refugees, like on Fox has basically been
terribly islamophobic and xenophobic and you know, ethno nationalist, but
seventies six percent of Republicans feel that it is our

(18:17):
duty as Americans to take these people in. And I'm
just like, what the funk what does this say about
every other situation that we're involved in that intersects with
the United States foreign policy and displacement of people, and
even domestic policy and displacement of people that where does
It's just it's it's a it's amazing to see how
people can just selectively be like, yep, those people deserve

(18:39):
empathy those people at the board or not so much.
I mean, granted that you can draw straight lines from
American foreign policy and intervention in Latin America to why
we have this immigration problem. And on the same level,
if it's like, well, these people are displaced because you
get cheap fruit for the for fucking dole or whatever,
that there's no there's no empathy, there's no understanding of

(19:01):
what the root causes are. And it's just kind of
you know, I'm just sitting there thinking, right, here's another
example of all that. Right, It's what I wonder if
it's because the cheap fruit is like, you know, it's
implicating the consumer, you know it is it kind of
gets it this undercurrent where it's like, yeah, all of

(19:23):
this is being done to just feed the kind of
massive consuming machine that America has instead of a soul,
and we don't want to acknowledge that. Right, And if
you go just slightly broader, right, the fruit is like
one dimension because the whole point of fighting all these
like all the intervention in Latin America was the way
the US was fighting the Cold War. Kind the whole

(19:43):
thing was like, do not do not like communism root
on the continent, and we'll do whatever the funk we
have to do by hook or by crook to figure
out how to stop that momentum. So on some level,
you could argue that this was happening to protect America's freedom,
right like that that rhetoric is sort of that, like
our logic was being applied. Yet again we look at
displaced people from there and go, that's that's your problem,

(20:05):
that's problem. Well, I mean, really, the it has always
felt like the cut off, and it's it's very clear
at this stage, especially over these last couple of years.
To cut off is like, do we feel like these
people have you have value to us? Do we? And
I'm not saying the three of us. I'm not saying
like you know, you know, those of us that actually
have natural empathy, but I'm saying you'll, you know, general public.
Oftentimes it seems like if they if we don't feel like,

(20:28):
you know, there there's value monetary actual value to you,
then it doesn't matter. And and and then and that's
and that's more telling about you know, about society because
you know, and it's actually it's not just how we
look at you know, at you know, you know, people
in foreign lands, how we look at people in America.
If you are poor, you aren't you you're don't you
ain't ship you know, like if you if you're not
out here working, if you're not out there contributing to this,

(20:49):
you know, to this system, then you you know, you're
not worth our time. So yeah, it's and and like
and I get though too. You know a big differences
with Afghanistan, and you know, everything that happened in nine eleven,
there was just you know, NonStop, it was a prime
time TV conflict for for a certain point, and so

(21:09):
people and there is countless TV shows, you know, and
and films that were like talking about like what's happening
over in the Middle East and things like that post
nine eleven, that that was a thing that people had
just like this sort of concept of but there isn't
much talking about American intervention in other places and things
like that and that this. But but then I'm like, Okay, well,

(21:30):
maybe it's a historical thing, right, like because people know
what what's going on in Afghanistan and like they're like, okay,
well that I understand why we need to extend empathy there,
even though truly it's not even it's only being extended
to eighty eight thousand people among millions in the region.
But it's the same thing with like Black Americans. We
fucking built this country, right, and the land was stolen
from indigenous people, Yet these groups are still like I

(21:53):
don't know what the funk y'all problem is, right, what
is your what is going on? And and so it's
just it's just it's like sickening to watch how certain
issues that deal with things that are happening within the
country and are so clear of like why we need
to correct things, you know, but there's just not the
energy for that yet. For these things, there's like a
lot of there's just a lot of media momentum, and

(22:16):
Americans can selectively say like, right, I I totally understand
why we need to our obligation to resettle these these refugees.
Yet we still are unable to look at all these
myriad of ways that we're connected to other struggles and
problems within the country and outside and still not be
compelled because it's easy to turn a blind eye and

(22:36):
you and you know, the next thing will come up
and we'll all obsess about that I after they have to.
You know, honestly, y'all know, like I appreciate shows like this.
I appreciate ethnically ambiguous and you know, like those wonderful
ladies and the and and both and answering, you know,
for pointing stuff like this out, whether it's on you know,
whether it's on the shows, whether it's on you know,
you know, whether it's on the timeline. And actually you know,

(22:57):
through conversations with and in particular, you know, like she
was the one who pointed out, like you we we
as a country, we we definitely pick and choose. We
definitely pick and choose what's going to matter, Who's going
to matter, you know how much it's you know it's
going to matter. And we really can't do that, you know,
it's it's it's it's well, I say, we really can't
do that. Yes we can, but we obviously really shouldn't
because look at where we're at, right Yeah, it's yeah,

(23:20):
And this whole thing is just about preserving like like
you say, we were selective about where we choose to
understand what's at stake or what the consequences were for
other people based on certain policies, and and like then
the second we try to inform people right of like history,

(23:42):
we see what happens, it's just met with rage and
violence because it's you know, the the whole the ignorance
is meant to intended to sort of preserve this American
sense of moral purity. And with Afghanistan, I think it
gives people a really easy thing to be like, up,
there was a war there. These people are basically they

(24:03):
fought on this team, so they get to come on
back on the bus back to the locker room after
the game kind of mentality. But the second, it begot
begins to really sort of intersect with something a little
more like closer to home or something that you may
actually have to think about deeper than just merely this
like very clean sort of logic path. Then it becomes

(24:24):
chaotic and things like that, and it's yeah, it's just
it's fucked up because there's countless ways that people are
being left behind, whether it's in the Middle East, in
South Asia wherever. But we you know, we we we
chug along on this path and like we only see
things get worse. I'm just kind of thinking, like what
does it take, you know, because if it's not about

(24:44):
connecting people to the history to understand sort of like
the US's place in that, what like what will do it? Yeah,
there's Americans seem particularly bad at feeling empathy towards poor
people in our own country because I think they're you know,
we I talk on to hear a lot about like

(25:06):
just the work, the like psychological work that needs to
be done too for like kind of the passive white
supremacists in the country to just like go about their
daily lives and like kind of pushed down whatever that
that reality is, whatever realities are hitting them. Like whether

(25:27):
it's somebody living on the street or you know, the
videos of police shooting innocent people of color. Like, there's
just so much work that's having to be done for
them to like block that out. And so by letting
in empathy for anybody in the country already, you're almost

(25:47):
having to admit like that that whole thing is on
shaky foundation, Whereas I feel like the Afghanistan War and
the Iraq War, the media and the American people were
able to like kind of think of it as a
thing that was separate from them, So that's enabling them.
And then you know, the specifics of the really shocking

(26:11):
and horrifying footage from the airport, especially in those early days,
I think like probably just crystallized things in the kind
of American consciousness, which is wild though too, because there's
so many people that are destitute here and and yeah,
like it's just this, it's like we just want to

(26:33):
put our eyes on the thing that feels like it
can be solved in that one thing. Oh, the Afghanistan
thing can be solved if we get enough people on planes,
and then it's over and off to think about it
and it's done. I look at you know, you look
at things that happened in the streets of any city, Philadelphia,
of Baltimore, New York, l A. Wherever there's there's real problems,

(26:53):
and it's much easier, I guess, to go down that
path to think of how we can solve that is
just too much of a task for some people to
engage in mentally, when most of it really is just
about being like, no one's asking you to solve it,
but like fun man have the same feeling for for
that if you if your heart's broken seeing people who
are clinging to you know, trying to escape their country

(27:14):
to get here, and you can somewhat understand like, oh yeah,
I get that. Just just open your heart a little bit,
you know what I mean to be able to have
that sort of same level of compassion for more people.
But I don't know, that's just that's me being like,
what's what's wrong with us? But it also feels like
all of this is you know, very very specifically by designing, like,

(27:35):
for instance, there's a reason why we didn't ever see
the footage of you know, like what was going on
in Afghanistan. There's a reason why we didn't see the
body council's reason why they didn't even keep tracking a
lot of you know, in a lot of situations, there's
a really like it and the same thing goes where
you know, you know, domestically, individuals are no longer seen
as individuals if we just call them gangs or we
say that it's gang violence instead of saying like, these

(27:56):
are people, these are Americans that are you know, they're suffering,
that are in terrible situations, that are you know, innocent,
you'll you'll be you beyond beliefs at at at In
a lot of a lot of situations, it's easy to
just ignore. It's easy to do. You're like you to
look past people like it's the same it's the same thing.
You pull up, you put like let's say you're getting
off the freeway, you're getting off the four or five,

(28:17):
there's a dude sitting there right at you know, right there,
waiting for money. It's really easy. Folks will roll that
window of turn the music up and look forward. That's
what we've always done. Yeah, and I just yeah, and
I know like on some level, like you know, it's
it's a feeling of shame or powerlessness, like someone you know,
depending on how you you process it at times, like

(28:37):
for me, it's like a feeling of shame, like funck man,
Like I can't like this. I feel so helpless that
there's this person who's my age, who is We're probably
coming from very similar circumstances, and this is how things
shake up, because this is how things are, you know,
sort of designed in the country. Yeah, it's just and

(28:59):
I think it's it can be overwhelming for a lot
of people on some level too, But it's just like
this sort of very it's it's like one of the
many superpowers that Americans and American media have created to
sort of keep the status quo going in this direction,
which is one that doesn't really care for people that
are marginalized or in need of help. Just focus on,

(29:19):
like focus on the people who who got it right.
All right, let's uh talk about a new research poll
from Pew that is revealing the one of the big
differences between red and blue that we we weren't aware of.
I wasn't personally aware of. Yeah, it kind of makes sense. Well,

(29:42):
what is this new where is this new arena for
the political engagement? It is over the topic of walking
around your town. So when they look at these theys.
They just took a quick survey. I'm just curious about, like,
in the post pandemic, do people want to like live
in larger homes or that might maybe more spread apart

(30:03):
with distance between them? Do would they rather be closer
to people and be able to walk to places and
just have like more of that kind of thing. So
apparently only of conservatives that they pulled want to live
in a walkable neighborhood, while seventy seven percent preferred driving everywhere.
But what's funny though, too, is when it comes down

(30:23):
to Democrats or people who identify as liberals, they say
of moderate Democrats and fifty seven percent of liberals quote
unquote want walkable neighborhoods, resulting in a split among Democrats.
So it's just odd to look at these numbers, Like, sure,
I can understand why if you love your fucking truck
or whatever you want to walk around or drive around

(30:45):
or merely because you don't want to be around people.
But to think like for what you see is like
stereotypical liberal ideology would be more like environmentally conscious, and
maybe you think that people would be like, oh, I
would like better design of or better planning of my
city so I could walk around and do things like that.
But it seems like they're split a little bit more. Yeah,

(31:08):
I guess I understand why conservatives don't want a walkable neighborhood,
but like, what is the so they just don't want
people walking past their house. I think it's the same thing, right,
if you're you don't want a sense of community problem. Ultimately, no,
you don't want your house. You want your your land,
and no one's allowed on your land. We see this

(31:31):
in Los Angeles, where it is not a walkable city
and not a great public transportation city, although it's gotten
better in some ways, slowly slowly, where yeah, it's like
people don't even want other people's cars parked on their
block because homeownership makes people fucking insane. I think this

(31:52):
issue is super complicated, especially in California, because the walkable
cities thing is also like sometimes that's a dog whistle
for gentrification, right, but what we really need is just
like better public transport. I mean, I think some of
the walkable city stuff is also like taking this European

(32:15):
idea of the walkable city where everything central that hasn't
existed in California. Or anywhere in the United States since
like the nineteen fifties, you know, ever since colors like yeah,
they're like, hey, what if we gave you which I
wanted to make sure people had to have a car
to live in this place, for sure, But even like
even walkable cities, even places like New York that are

(32:37):
like where the place where you can go everywhere, you know,
people have cars, and people move to the suburbs and
then drive from the suburbs. The idea of the suburbs
is really the thing that killed walkable cities, and liberals
are just as into the suburbs as anyone else. M right.
This thing with like is especially in l a right
like there's because people don't aren't really put estrians there

(33:00):
in their cars all the time. It really diminishes your
ability to feel connected to anyone else. Oh, I completely
disagree with that. I totally disagree with that because I
think the idea that you're like connecting with people around
with you, that New Yorkers are always like, yeah, I'm
just talking to everybody on the subway, running into my
friends all over town. Absolutely not. People can be completely

(33:24):
isolated in a crowd of people. In fact, you can
feel the loneliest you've ever felt in a huge crowd
of strangers. You know, everyone is not your friend necessarily immediately.
I have all kinds of social interactions from my car.
I have like daysed and confused interactions, which to me

(33:44):
is like just as counts just as much, just like
talking to somebody on the street. What are dazed in
confused interaction? You like, talk to somebody out your car.
You roll down your window and talk to somebody. I
went out the other night and I talk to like
some guys on a motorcycle who started hitting on us

(34:04):
from from the motorcycle. And then I went to Del
Taco at midnight and I ran into my friend Michelle,
who was also at Del Taco at midnight, just in
the line at the drive through. Yeah, nice honking behind you.
Yeah yeah, yeah, So that's what it's, you know. But
I think the reason I bring that up right is
because I totally agree in that even just being physically

(34:28):
in proximity to someone doesn't necessarily create a sense of community.
But there's a way that you can absolutely shut yourself
off by being in a car all the time in
a way that like it's it's much easier to insulate yourself.
I know there are ways to do that in many walkables.
What do you say, you know, headphones man Like people
are putting their earbuds in like, But there's a difference

(34:50):
right between you never seeing somebody like you know of
of any different social class or whatever, and you have
whatever idea built up because it's born out of some media,
diet or whatever your social group says about a given
another group. And I think being in a car really
does allow that to reinforce in a way that I

(35:11):
think is can be pretty exceptional. I think you are
very much You're a very social person, and I'm also
across the line. But I think there is like even
for me recently, right, I started riding my bike more
because I wanted to be I wanted to like actually
feel like be around my neighborhood, see people out of
their homes too, and reinforce this idea that like, I'm

(35:33):
also around other human beings that are trying to live
in the same way versus it's easy to get caught
up inside, so I guess more so in the pandemic,
to get inside your house and just start creating a
sense of the world that might not actually exist because
of like what you're consuming media wise. So for me,
and maybe this is just more of a personal thing,
I found it a lot easier to be like in

(35:55):
public space around other people, and I'm not necessarily talking
to people, but there is something that just feels different
than being in a car and just like just having
you know, like completely sort of insulated. Yeah, I guess
it's also like I feel like in l A, people
drive somewhere to walk, you know. So it's like people
do walk, they just have to drive somewhere to walk

(36:18):
there because it is a gigantic place and we don't
have the greatest public transportation, right It's like, Yo, let's
let's drive forty minutes to go walk Ford you pretty
much that is, you know what I mean? And and
I think that's what I love about biking, or I'm
getting more into it now. I like cutting down a
lot of shorts. I like biking. I do I think

(36:39):
out there, I think biking in l A is kind
of terrifying because of culture. You know. I've been other
places where I'm like, it's easier to bike here because
it's a like I do think having real bike lanes
would be great for for l A, we could use
a lot more bike lanes. Everything is definitely centered around cars.

(37:00):
I do think cars here are a little bit like
guns in Texas and that you will pry them out
of our cold dead hands, right right, right right, because
that's how Yeah. Like, so I do think we're just
gonna get We've got to get better electric cars rather
than trying. I don't think there's gonna be in l
A without cars ever, probably no, No, people are like

(37:23):
just habitually, there will be in l A without cars,
but it'll be after like yeah, that's when the roaches
are running. But yeah, like you know, my partner, for example,
she's from d C, so her outlook on using a
car is so different than mine, being a valley scum
rat kid who like the car was your like to
me was like liberation, like when you're younger. And so

(37:44):
there are a lot of times she's like, why wouldn't
you just walk there? And I'm kind of catching with
something like because this is l A. And then I'm like, man,
I'm completely fucking I'm not even looking at things in
a way that will allow me to like actually just
make it sure you could have good public transportation and
walk ability, but then you'd have to live in Washington,
d C. I mean, as we found out in the

(38:07):
movie Crash, sometimes those of us in l A crash
or dank cars and what I'm saying again to feel connect.
Maybe it's just me. Maybe it is because I just
go out cruising all the time, looking for action and
like you know, crashing into people, fighting with the city.
As as Miles one said, he thinks I do all day,
which is what I do all day. But yeah, I

(38:30):
do just think like the idea that car culture is
inherently isolating is not I don't think it's true. Yeah,
but also, yeah, it's nice to walk. I walk around
in my neighborhood. But also because la is so spread out,
it's like sometimes you walk somewhere and you don't see anybody. Yeah,
and it's and I think that's what's also kind of
a bummer too, because like I'll go on parts of

(38:52):
the l A River and bike and like you'll see
these like pockets whre there's a lot of people, and
then suddenly I'm like there's like tumbleweeds and ship I
love to some boys. Yeah, but I mean, you know,
this is again back to the urbanism stuff. Like the
big issues in California are that we need more dense
housing for people because we are a city of a

(39:14):
lot of people, but there's all these single family homes
and that's what everybody thinks they get if they go
to California. But I can't have that anymore. And again,
I do think people are gonna maybe hold onto that
idea a little bit with they're called dead hands as
climate change happens. Yeah, well, I think because we're sort

(39:38):
of all inundated and like inoculated with the concept of
like American wealth building is based on real estate holdings, right,
which doesn't work anymore when the houses are burning down
all the time and being you know, flooded by hurricanes,
and especially as insurance companies start to drop people that

(39:58):
are in natural disaster zones, which is what I think
Mike Davis said is probably going to happen next, you know,
because so far it's just been like everything burns down
in Malibu or whatever, and then they just build it
back bigger every time. But there will come a point
when the insurance company has refused to do that. But
then what happens, Like banks are like lobbying and they're

(40:19):
like homeowners insurance is a is a right, Like it's
fucking medical insurance. You know what I mean to do?
You know? And I think I don't know. I think
people are are also just thinking about where they do
want to live. I do think that I do know
some liberals who moved to some walkable cities because they

(40:40):
were like, if I'm stuck at home during the pandemic,
I'd rather be somewhere I can like walk around and
walk to a place that I want to go. Then
in the suburbs, where I thought I wanted to be
right and just walk four miles and all you see
is like a desolate spearmit rhino, like an industrial park. Okay,
but that's the beauty to me, miles you know that,

(41:02):
Like I love it. But yeah, like we people don't know,
they're not used to that one in North Hollywood, well yeah,
but that's like we walked to the Century eight, which um,
I think is a different theater called something else now maybe,
but I looked it up recently on YELP and was
very delighted to see that the reviews were like this

(41:22):
place is still very scary at night. Yeah, everybody was
like this is the sketchiest parking lot I've ever been,
And I was like, man, I love the valley. Yeah,
they're like, now they shot a fucking what's not wonder
Captain Marvel in that park, I think. So you're talking

(41:43):
about the one in North Hollywood, right, Well, yeah, there's
there's a couple of scary theaters in North Hollywood though. Yeah,
but that one by the old Wells Fargo Bank that
has like the huge mirror lie So that's the that's
the other one, that's the that's the Yeah, that's that
one's closed forever. I think Century eight is still open
and you can go see movies. Because I was like,
now that the arc lives posed, where can I go see?

(42:04):
Like if I wanted to see in like a Fast
and Furious movie, Like, where would I even go? It's like,
what if I just start going to that theater again,
which I could walk to? So maybe that brings it back.
Maybe you're right, maybe we all love walkability. That's right.
All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be
back to talk about how COVID is affecting rap rock

(42:25):
legends of our youth. And we're back, and Adam Levin
has been replaced by super producer on a streaming corner, assholes,

(42:49):
open your ears. Sorry, Yeah, hard to pivot from that
very serious conversation about security and privacy and now the
pressing issues of our time, the way we distract ourselves
healthily from that television TV. Although this I feel like
this show really nailed something about the zeitgeist or just
I guess America. Oh White Lotus or yeah, White Lotus

(43:13):
show definitely always is always nailing the ze gust. Hello,
Anna Hosnie, thank you for joining us. What why why
do we watch White Lotus? When you first said why
are you watching it? What was parting? Well, okay, first
I have to do my streaming corner theme song. Okay,
go go go three six seven ten, batty d d

(43:37):
do dude, it's a stream in corner. Bad dot dot dude,
it's a stream in corner. You didn't watch White Lotus,
did you? You didn't watch It is gonna happen to

(44:05):
last time? When we were like, alright, well so I
missed all that. I was doing my theme song. We
were just saying that you have delaying because you didn't
actually watch White Lotus when we asked you about Godfather too, anyway.
Pretty I've ever been more offended than people just speaking

(44:26):
through my forty five minutes stream of corner. And we
were just so confused. We didn't want to get scammed again. No,
I was just um, I was, what is it when
you're like pulling from someone? I was pulling my inner
Kim Cantrell Chanel. Um. I guess before we get into
the just the talk, I'll I will read what the

(44:48):
description of White Lotus is, so if you haven't seen it,
you understand what we're gonna be ranting and raving about.
They say from Mike White, the creator of HBOS in light,
The White Lotus is a sharp social satire following the X.
It's a various employees and guests at an exclusive Hawaiian
resort over the span of one highly transformative week, As
darker dynamics emerge with each pressing day. This biting six

(45:09):
episode series gradually reveals the complex truths of the seemingly
picture perfect travelers, cheerful hotel employees, and idyllic locale itself.
There it is, and another interesting fact, Mike White did
in fact go to high school or college. I forget
with my friend Laurie's wife really okay, yeah, the other day.

(45:31):
Now we're looking with guests, now we're cooking. He also
did he write he wrote School of Rock. He's enlightened
with Laura Derny Yeah, yeah, but also School of Rock.
He's okay, stop bringing up School of Rock every time.
But interesting, kind of varied career. But this is I

(45:51):
don't know, very kind of keenly just sharply observed about
the one percent, I guess, and uh and their relationship
to themselves in their world and there their leisure, their leisure.
M I don't know. It was how do we get
into this? What do we? What do we? I mean? Yeah,

(46:14):
I just say so, like I know there's been a
lot of think pieces on it and all that, but
you know, I'm not really one that thinks too hard.
So I just thought it was just like a fun
dark comedy that just like kind of you know, showed
that rich white people are just like vapid, idiot losers,
and that's just kind of like funny to me. Yeah,

(46:35):
some woman, like I'm really simple, Like if you're like,
look at this rich white woman, like she doesn't get
that like white men are over I'm like, it's me um,
so like that's all it really takes for me. Yeah, well,
I think because a lot of people I felt like,
we're mad because they were expecting this show to have
some kind of really biting sort of commentary on what

(46:58):
it was. And I get that maybe you thought because
it was like adjacent to something really interesting, because throughout
this show, like there is this juxtaposition of like understanding
like what life is like for the people of Hawaii,
like the relationship that it has to the mainland, and
like just how like sort of the cast system that

(47:19):
even Annexation has created in that sense, But there's also
like there's just, yeah, this dark comedy aspect about it,
which just sort of makes it palatable. And I in
the beginning, I thought maybe this was going to be
all broader commentary on something like that, and in the
end it just was really just sort of this very
more narrowly focused dark comedy. So I didn't mind that
it didn't have that, because I also it was kind

(47:41):
of one a very American thing where like the show
almost was able to like observe an issue or like
a controversy, but not quite have a reckoning with it.
So it's just sort of like, damn that's sucking a while.
The vibe was that the show rather than like, this
is why we need to really seriously talk about like
what it means to have annexed the Kingdom of Hawaii,

(48:03):
you know, like all these other things, like what it
means for these power dynamics among all these other people.
But really it was just occupy Hawaii. Yeah, I know.
And and the kind of the great part about it
is that, like it just I kind of liked It's
like you didn't really try, and I'd rather you just
didn't try, Like you created humor and the fact that

(48:25):
like these people were really shitty and you're pointing it out,
but like they didn't really make that much of an effort,
and it's like I'd rather than not make an effort
than make like a half assed effort something, you know
what I mean and fall flat trying to be like
deep with it. But I feel like the commentary was
all there like that it definitely didn't end in a
satisfying way. But the way it ended was that the

(48:47):
people who you've kind of just been disgusted by the
whole time because they are just myopically just obsessed with
their own privilege, and like preserving the illusion that they
deserve like every thing, and like fighting anybody who's in
the service and service positions, like they just get away
with it and don't learn their lesson and that's just

(49:10):
like that that is how it works. Yeah, but didn't
that all feel like just in the writing like very
surface level, Like there were a lot of things that
they just touched on that they very quickly, very like
it was just like and then they like you know,
moved on, Like I feel like, yeah, you know, they'd
be like this guy hates the manager or whatever. Jake
Lacey's character Shane hates armand. Yeah, Shane hates armand and

(49:33):
it's like okay, but we're not really going to explain,
like explore further like what the funk is wrong with
Shane and like why, you know, like other than him
being like, look, I was just born into this, okay,
like what am I supposed to do? And it's like, yeah,
surface level, that's who he is, and that's all these
people are. They're all surface level people, right, Yeah, maybe

(49:54):
that is maybe that is the observation. So like just
to give people an idea, like there's like this tension,
there's there's character Armand who's like the hotel manager. Then
there's a couple of Nicole and Mark, which is played
by Connie Britten and Steve's On, who's like this wealthy
couple who have brought their kids and one of their
kids friends with them to just kind of like have
one of those rich people vacations. And then the other

(50:17):
story the other storyline involves Tanya, which is Jennifer Coolidge's character,
who's like mourning the loss of her mother and is
there to spread ashes alongside this newlywed couple of Shane
and Rachel, where this journalist has like married rich and
is kind of having this existential dilemma of like what
that means for her. Yeah, but I think that there's

(50:38):
something where when they're on vacation, they are left with
too much time to think about like just themselves and
how awful they are, so they like do things like
create the issue with Urmand that that Jake has. Or
Connie Britten, who's like supposed to be a Cheryl Sandberg
type character, is like at one went like moving furniture

(51:01):
around the hotel room, like just like doing these things,
like creating these tasks and these problems too, just like
focus on to like continue this like sort of endless
like competition and like urge to prove something that like
I feel like deep down they know they can't prove,
which is that they deserve any of this ship. Mm hmm,

(51:24):
what's um? I I want to say that this one
of the best things about this show, where like some
of just the individual performances and I don't know, I
just want to maybe go around and we can talk
about some of our favorite people from the show. I
remember when I wasn't watching yet and and it was
and you're like, due to Jennifer Coolidge, it's fucking crushing

(51:47):
this whole fucking show. And that's when I was like,
I'm watching because I'm such a Jennifer Coolidge fan. And yeah,
Tanya's character was called cool Dogs. Hey where the cool
Dogs at? But yeah, like honestly her performance is like fantastic,
and like her sort of storyline with Belinda and Natasha.
Rothwell's character was just like this fucking strange journey of

(52:11):
like white savior, doom and guilt and like also people
trying to act like they were being authentic by offering
or not offering money. It was a it was a
lot it was a lot. Yeah, you know, Jennifer Coolidge,
I mean truly like a legendary actor who like comedic
actor who never really I think, like I feel like

(52:32):
she gets you know, pigeonholed a lot in what she
has been offered in the past. And it was like
really nice to see her like playing this, like just
showing that she has like this wild range where she
can play like this, Like what is she She calls
herself an alcoholic she comes to like an alcoholic psychopath

(52:53):
or something like she's like under all you're just gonna
find an alcohol like psychopath and you're like wow, wow,
like that level of just like madness, You're like, wow,
she's kind of And the thing is she's nailing it.
Like her character, every person she interacts with, I immediately

(53:14):
feel bad for them. And that's how you know she's
nailing it. Yeah, she just walks up like you having
a good You're like, she's trappings. So she reminded me
of the character and shadows the energy vampire. Yeah, she

(53:38):
just came in and would destroy the life force of
everyone except the dying guy who she ultimately ends up with. Right,
I do want to add this one thing. Those characters
of Paula and Olivia like the gen Z college girls.
My dad said he like they made him feel so

(53:58):
uncomfortable that he couldn't get past the st episode because
he was getting like zoomer anxiety. He's like, oh man,
they're like they're just gonna fucking read your ass and
like you don't know what to do, and he was like,
yet he was feeling that off the screen. He's like, yeah,
I couldn't really get past it. First. They nail the
cruelness that gen Z can bring in their critiques, and

(54:19):
you're like, oh my, just like them reading at the
look that they both give you at the same time,
and you're like no, no, no, no, don't look at
me right because these characters are like almost like you know,
they have like the cutting commentary that like a five
year old would where they're like, oh you're bald, and
you're like, okay, thank you child, but they're just like

(54:41):
you're like an empty, like lame want to your wife.
Like they have like this expanded vocabulary and know a
lot more like psychological terminology, so like it's like the
same kind of observation, but it just cuts you in half.
But also they're just like disdained for things too. I
think was really that line where they're like, do you
guys meet on Riya You like, wow, okay you are

(55:04):
He's just like, oh no, You're just like damn. They
just come for you immediately. The reading is like the
books they're reading are like he's like, hi, like Nietzsche
and like Freud. Look, it's like okay, uh, nobody wants
nobody actually reads that. But um. And then Jake Lacy,

(55:25):
the like bro character who's like inherited a bunch of
money and like it seems to have like the most
violent conflict with like just well just with every everything
about himself and like he's always reading Malcolm Gladwell Blanket
and he's never yeah yeah and never making any progress,

(55:46):
and it's always like at the same place I thought
was he captures like a guy who says he's gonna
read on a trip energy and it's like yeah, almost, dude,
I'm bringing the book here. I'm bringing the book there.
I'm bringing I brought it to bed. No, I didn't
read it. I was about to, but you know, vacation
and I gotta say, Molly Shannon comes in. I mean

(56:08):
Molly Shannon is honestly, like every every role she plays
immediately is like she just progresses in a way where
I'm like, she's so fucking funny. She just comes in
as a mom who's just like, you know, like you're pretty,
you know, like that wedding I blacked out. You're like,
I don't remember you know, saying that. It's like, what

(56:28):
are you saying? People say it's lovely? I don't remember
that at all, but it was great, right, nothing, right? Yeah.
I feel like her, and I feel like the character Jake,
the mom, Molly Shannon, and the two gen Z girls
were like the ones that like stuck out to me
as like the most I don't know, like I hadn't

(56:49):
seen them on camera like in a thing before like
nailing to that degree, like that archetype because there, Yeah,
there's like a lot of pain in them, like the
like that is and the way they deal with it
is like very pathetic and like just completely like transferring

(57:09):
like their anger about one thing to another thing, and
they just really like nailed it in a way that
felt realistic and yet like so just obvious. And also
Steve's on. I forgot about Steve's on until I saw
him and I was like, oh wait, Steveson is actually hilarious.
His whole like meltdown through the series of like he

(57:30):
finds out his dad died of eates and and he's like,
I just first he thinks he has testicular cancer. Then
he finds out his dad died of eates because he
was you know, bisexual or or gay. Well, I don't
even know. It's not really explained. And then if I
let these like starts to be like he starts to

(57:51):
melt it down because he at one point he had
an affair and decides he wants to be open with
his son, and his son is he really not accepted.
He's just like okay, cool, dad, Like, stop telling me
about this. They're so like his character. And then just
like that scene at the dinner where they're like, be

(58:13):
nicer to your brother. You know, it's tough for young
white guys. And then like Paula, they're like, well you know,
the daughter is like you've never even asked Paula question.
And he's like, well, Paula doesn't know anything about me,
and she's like, well, I know about your balls, bro,
what do you mean walking around lament that? Yeah, And
then He's like, Okay, ask me a question, Paula, and

(58:34):
she says, what do you stand for? Oh my god?
His character just like like what do I stand for?
Because they're all that like emotional turmoil. He still lacks
the depth needed to analyze any of it, but he
can't do it. It's just I thought his character was

(58:55):
like perfect, just like Dad, he's just like kind of
checked out, so self involved with his own crap. It's
kind of nice to see like Zon he like you
can see that he can there's a like whatever this
next phases him playing this kind of weird middle aged guy,
like because that angs when he was younger, Like sure
it was funny, but I feel like it really suits

(59:17):
him now, like as he's gotten older and like you
know that he now looks like he I don't know,
it just feels like more spot on. And then also
like Molly Shannon too, It's just really helped to just
see like you're like fun, dude. Momy Shannon has like
always been super talented, but like now she's getting like
great roles to really you know fred or wings in. Yeah, yeah,
I thought this was a great role. There's one more
moment with Steveson the moment he gets the call from

(59:39):
his uncle and he's like, well, how did my dad
die of AIDS? And he's like he was sleeping around
with men. That face he makes, I cried, just his
I think his facial expressions alone throughout the series of
just like complete confusion, like what he Yeah, he embodied
the like circuits frying in a computer Reuters How made

(01:00:01):
that a facial expression? And then the face he's making
when he's just sitting like this the next day, where
it's with his hand with his face in his hand,
and his daughter's been like, that's really homophobic for you
to be this upset about it, Like what if Grandpa
was like a power bottom. It's a camp process any
of the information. I mean, I was dying, Mike what.
The creator and writer of the show's dad was Reverend

(01:00:25):
doctor James Melville White, a former speechwriter and ghostwriter for
the religious right figures such as Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson.
His father came out as gay in so kind of
lived in experience, right right? Cool? And are interesting? Mark Yeah?
And then the other character, I just want to like

(01:00:47):
Murray Bartlett as armand is like one of the most
realistic depiction of like a relapse just of being high
and like uninhabited and or uninhabited, and just like that
performance is fucking incredible. Yeah, that, especially that last episode
when like he's like fuck it, babe, It's yeah, it's

(01:01:10):
yeah that, I mean, his whole It's also like you
really felt for his character too, because like you know,
like he's he's trying to keep a ship together, he's
trying to stay clean, and he's also like in the
midst of like the most chaotic week of his career
is like managing a hotel with like unruly guests, finding
bags of drugs and not knowing what to do and

(01:01:32):
like his own demons. It's like, yeah, it's funny because
he provided a lot of comedic relief, but also like
super like you said, like this very realistic portrayal of
of someone just like struggling with their own addiction to Yeah.
I also like that the people around and we're kind
of like okay, armand no one was really that concerned

(01:01:53):
that this guy was so off the deep end. Like
you open your door and your boss is eating ass,
Like that's the problem there. I was just like, you
know what, not my business and seen the show. It's yeah,
you'll you'll be surprised, but I think it's worth checking
out for sure. Now, yeah, we should probably put a
spoiler alert at the beginning of this, because this is

(01:02:14):
no I think this is spoiler alert twenty minutes ago,
spoil alert all you can eat. But fet I actually
really like Dylan. He doesn't get yeah, I can have
any shift I want. I do have more like right,
And then I was just kind of like, yo, this
is so gross. And then I'm like, well, this is

(01:02:36):
this is this dark comation. It's like, finally, let's party.
There is a scene last episode that's the grossest thing
I've ever seen with Armand to be real, they have
to have like shown actual like that that right, you
can't fake that, or you it would cost a lot
of money to fake that, or you just don't put

(01:02:57):
it in a post. Yeah that's true. You think that
would digitize. I don't think. I think it worse. I
ran that back a number of times and just like
watch it and frame by frame and I'm pretty sure
that you did your own studies yourself trying to replicate
the shot. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's like what are you
doing in the bathroom. Like everything about the suitcase, I

(01:03:23):
got a new one coming in the middle. Don't worry
about it. Anna as always such a pleasure having you
and your streaming corner on. Where can people find you
and follow you? Well? Hold on, I have to do
my outro song for sure, boy, just because your as
like another four that's the end stream, thank you. Yeah,

(01:03:47):
I can get the horn section from Scodio Policias, thank you.
I also sampled that. All right, that's gonna do it.
