gambling and he doesn't speak English.

Speaker 6 (02:35):
Hold on, hold on illegal gambling.

Speaker 4 (02:37):
Byes here for this. If it's people of color and
illegal gambling.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
And illegal gambling, yeah, it's our country hasn't hasn't even
learned the language. I'm just saying.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
It's so funny because you watch him in the dugout

like he's like cutting it, like I.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
Don't want to talk to these people to It's.

Speaker 4 (02:55):
Also like a Japanese thing to like not want to

more comfortable speaking as you can with the translator too.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
Ye come out in two seasons and be like, hey,
my name is Shoho, you know, just like right, yeah,
just like wait, what the fuck?

Speaker 2 (03:13):
Hey my name is Flori. Yeah sorry.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
It actually has a Midwestern accent for some reason, like.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Yeah, hey, raised in Tokyo, don't you know?

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah, right there in Tokyo.

Speaker 7 (03:26):
Then right off the Yama note line, John, we do
like to ask our guest, what is something from your
search history that's revealing about who you are?

Speaker 6 (03:36):
This is meandering, but you'll understand. I found a guy
on Instagram that explains where plants and vegetables came from,
and as a result, I did a pumpkin deep dive
last night at about eleven forty five pm. That is
the father of a child was inadvised because it was
an hour and a half long. But are you aware
of the journey humanity has had with the pumpkin?

Speaker 1 (03:58):
No, did it like start out looking totally different.

Speaker 6 (04:01):
It's more like we used to eat it. We used
to like it's like it grows everywhere. It's one of
those things where it's like and if it not for
the pumpkins, society never would have taken place, like in
the same way of like if they had not discovered coffee,
could have we would we have had the Industrial Revolution.
You look at like the caloric intake from pumpkin at
different times and you're.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Like, like, ninety percent of our was pumpkin.

Speaker 6 (04:26):
Oh my god. And then you're like, and now what
do we do with it? Once a year we pretend
that they're a face and then some teenagers smash them. Yeah, yeah,
that that tracks for this whole group.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
I just had to throw away my jack O lanterns
same Halloween because they were fucked up. They were melting,
like they were rotting, and they also had like a
mold growing on them. So fast that I was like,
who touched this? Like when we were carving this, whose
hands were that dirty?

Speaker 4 (04:57):
Once you scrape that out, though, it's the clock is
taken from once you open it up.

Speaker 7 (05:03):
Man.

Speaker 6 (05:03):
As an official pumpkin pete, I can explain they rot
from the inside out, so as we got them for
our delicious, delightful Halloween fun, we're basically just where we're. Yeah,
we're starting the clock. You know what I'm saying. We're
we're it's the end of the movie. It's the end
of the movie Saw One, and we're turning to them
and going, good luck getting out of here, whatever he says.

(05:24):
And I'm throwing the keys in the bathroom.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
Right, fine, good luck getting out of here.

Speaker 6 (05:28):
But I mean, listen, I'll be totally honest. By the
end of that movie, I was so freaked out. I
wasn't even paying attention. I was just like, get me
out of get me out of here. I'm I think
I've done some things. He's gonna saw.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Me right, Yeah, I mean I like some pumpkin soup,
I like some pumpkin pie. I get any of those
pumpkin seeds. Weast too, and they have remained untouched since.

Speaker 8 (05:56):
Out of them, and I'm like, get this is it? Yeah,
I'm gonna say this. I don't think they love it.
I don't think anyone actually likes pumpkin seeds. I think
we just like remembering being a child because I think
they are a terrible snack that are not good.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
If you season them.

Speaker 4 (06:10):
Well, we were like season them, get them greasy, so
they kind of like fry a little bit, give them
a texture because normally, like they just break into shards
and you're like, I'm fucking up the inside of my mouth.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
But if you wrote if some seeds you didn't eat
the inside, you just ate the whole thing, wouldn't that
be fun?

Speaker 6 (06:25):
You just want to say this the whole thing of Like, well,
if you season it right and it's really delicious. That's
true of literally everything. You put enough olive oil and
salt on ventanyl, you're gonna be like, you know, not
that ventanyl doesn't sell it.

Speaker 4 (06:38):
So but you know what I'm saying, Like, just lollipops,
actually they don't need any seasoning.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
They're pretty fun.

Speaker 1 (06:45):
V lollipops the delicacy at the Idaho. Yeah, what's something
you think is underrated?

Speaker 9 (06:53):
I I really like this is something that people already
think is at least pretty good. But I really like
the new album by Clips here. It's phenomenal, very very
good music.

Speaker 2 (07:04):
Oh my god, yeah you're you're reup gang Alex.

Speaker 6 (07:08):
I didn't know that.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
Oh it's fun and like they're just there's just accellent rappers.

Speaker 9 (07:13):
And I really have no life connection to Cooking Cocaine
and Virginia Beach, but they do a great job of
telling the stories about it and getting other themes going.

Speaker 6 (07:22):
You know.

Speaker 4 (07:23):
That's the point Clips everyone thinking they were cooking cracked
on pi rex in Virginia Beach. That's the power of
their music. That's when their first album. I thought I
was selling crack cocaine in a tennis ball.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
I wasn't. I was at a private Catholic high school.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Now is the tennis ball actually were they using a
tennis ball or was it just a tennis ball sized bag?

Speaker 4 (07:44):
No, the tennis ball is how you that's how you
move the work across the street. They thought we was
playing catch. No, there was a there was drugs in there,
so it's like, oh, here catch the ball. But really
they said, hey, let me get that. Then you take
the cat cut drugs. Yeah, the drugs are drugs.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Trying to seal it back up you little like arts
and crafts, Yeah, baby, yeah, yeah, what's.

Speaker 9 (08:06):
Your favorite what's your favorite choco on the new Clips album? Uh,
Mike Tyson blow to the Face is really good. Oh yeah,
And but.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
I feel like like the very first track is like
very emotional and his dad's passing and everything, and like
there's a there's a real range on it.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
I know.

Speaker 9 (08:20):
I a sentence ago made it sound like they only
talk about cocaine, but there's there's a lot going on.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
It's also nice they love their dad. Their dad sound
like a great guy.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
Yeah, it's really tragic songs about like how good your
dad was.

Speaker 4 (08:35):
Yeah, yeah, truly it's like, yeah, cops bounced on old
you know. Yeah anyway, yeah, yeah, it's there with legend,
you know.

Speaker 9 (08:43):
Because also, like growing up, I feel like I was
told that rap is not good and country is not good,
and that adulthood has been a lot of discovering how
good both of those are, because there's a lot of
good country music also about you disappointed your parents and
you're just trying to live. Like Merle Haggard his sing's
Mama try about disappointing his mountain, and you know they
just really capture really emotionally and then also do hardcore

(09:05):
songs about how they're kicking ass all the time.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Yeah, oh my god, yeah I love it.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
You know who else likes the clips? The Pope didn'
they didn't. They perform a.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
Performed the Vatican.

Speaker 6 (09:17):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
Yeah, that was wild. Did you see that?

Speaker 1 (09:20):
A personal request by the Pope.

Speaker 4 (09:22):
Yeah, he's like, I'm re up game. He's like, make
sure stove God Cooks is also here. I want to
hear a fight ball.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Will Smith jacket.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
Boy, I cook it till they inside out. I love that.
Or fresh Prince Jacket, I cooked him till they inside out. Yeah,
that's I don't know.

Speaker 6 (09:38):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
I think that was because if you should check that
one out, because I think they did. Birds don't sing
with like an orchestra at the Vatican.

Speaker 9 (09:46):
Yeah, this is an amazing tip. Yeah, and it's like
this Pope, the Chicago Pope.

Speaker 4 (09:52):
Yeah, this happened. This happened like two months ago.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
This always thought of you as the Chicago but the
Chicago hope. But that's he's humble. Another thing you too
have in common.

Speaker 9 (10:04):
Yeah, he the Pope attended Game one of the two
thousand and five World Series, and is there is footage
of him in the actual like Fox or whatever telecast
watching Bobby Jenks try to close out Game one and
terrified it won't work out, making the face that I
made in our basement at home. It's it's the best amazing.

(10:24):
I mean, he just looked like some guy like he
was just the pictures of him at that game. He's
just like there with like his brother, like they're eating
hot dogs.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
Funny, funny. What is something like do you think's overrated?

Speaker 2 (10:42):
Marsupials?

Speaker 5 (10:44):
I have been digging into them, and it seems like
the pouch is I would say, more of a concern.

Speaker 4 (10:51):
So you're saying you're literally digging into a marsupials pouch.

Speaker 5 (10:54):
Sure, sure, So, okay, there's the there's a stop in
frisk in Australia where it only applies to the pockets
on the front of these beasts. But no, I think
that it's doing a lot of work for their pr
and making them sound more interesting than they are with
the pockets. I don't think a kangaroo really if you

(11:15):
get past the fact that they let these things hang
out in their pouches, are that interesting of an animal,
And I think the same goes for I mean, like
possums are a disaster, Like there's just so many animals.
Wombats are cute on their own that no one mentions
the pouch for them. So I just think that the
marsupials are maybe crum. Yeah, yeah, it doesn't have to

(11:36):
be your whole personality, I guess is my point where
you can just have one and not bring it up.
I would prefer that they'd stop bringing it up. I
think it's actually what.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
I personally find kangaroos to be. Like shot, you know,
if you can just like clear your mind of all
knowledge that you've ever learned and then like look at
the world with fresh eyes, like the fact that there
are deer sized rabbit things that just jump around like
huge and will beat the ship out of you, and

(12:06):
not to mention, have a little pouch that they carry
their babies. And I find it pretty amazing.

Speaker 5 (12:12):
But you you say, I would say upsetting. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (12:15):
I think it's because your parents forced you to leave
the house when you're eighteen, probably right. My mom was like,
you say, as long as you want, honey, Yeah, pouch,
you know, and ill.

Speaker 5 (12:27):
They until then they made me sleep in the mailbox
in front of the couch or in front of the house,
which I believe in front of the couch, and our
mailbox was in our living room a.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
Mailbox kind of mailbox? You what kind of mailbox you
got left on.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Top of it like snoopy just eyes to the stars.
One question I've had that I think I've asked on
this and maybe had answered and forgot the answer. Marsupials.
Are the pouch dry or are the are in there?

Speaker 2 (12:56):
But you know, from what I understand, it's if I
had a.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Pouch, it would be disgusting, like if I pouch on
my body?

Speaker 5 (13:03):
Like what do you keep in there? Yeah, that's right,
I believe there are. And you do ask this constantly, Jack,
and I.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
Ask a good question, and I refuse to learn the ask.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
You just go to, hey, hey, is it wet in there?
You're like you're talking to the kangaroos. I just sorry, baby,
the baby.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
Keep it down.

Speaker 4 (13:25):
Is it like wet or dry in there?

Speaker 1 (13:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (13:27):
All right, never mind.

Speaker 5 (13:28):
I believe they can nurse in there. I believe it
is it. It's gotta be a little moist in there
if you if there's spillage, of course, and there will
there will be spillage, especially if that thing's hopping around.
Imagine trying to suckle from a tea and as your
mother bounces.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Up right trying, like a fucking nightmare. You know, Blake,
you've just killed yourself with that trying to see Imagine
trying to suckle from a tea as your mom bounces
upside down. Yeah, broadly, that's what Blake wants you to
imagine old skinned with a single opening that covers the
teeths inside the pouch. The blind offspring attaches itself to

(14:04):
one of the mother's teeths and remains attached for as
long as it takes to grow and to develop to
a juvenile stage.

Speaker 2 (14:10):
So yeah, marsupials are awesome.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
I find them very interesting. Like I also think they're
like kind of an alternate like in the world of
you know, like sort of parallel evolution, where they like
sort of evolved separately on that God's forsaken continent down there,
but they like kind of look the same, except they
got like a weird little like feature, you know, like

(14:34):
some of the like we don't have our own version
of kangaroos obviously, but you know a lot of the
marsupials are like similar to what we've got up here,
but just completely different and like got that way all
on their own, just by reacting to the elements, which
I find very interesting.

Speaker 5 (14:51):
Well, Australia has kangaroos and we have frogs, so we
have the same different.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
Yeah, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
All right, Well thanks for that, Blake, We're pleasure.

Speaker 4 (15:04):
I'm sorry to the audience for giving out completely incorrect
information about it.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
Well I'm mad, I'm a little emotional. Kangaroo is frog?
Is it wet in there? We'll be right back.

Speaker 1 (15:21):
Is it wet in there? Though? Like did we get
an answer on that?

Speaker 4 (15:25):
I mean it based on the pictures not really does
mean it's like driving me.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
I got something that says that kangaroo is often damp, slimy,
and sometimes smelly due to a mix of milk, saliva,
waste from the Joey and natural skin and oil.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
Yeah, that's what I thought, That's what and that's what
I thought.

Speaker 5 (15:43):
Hit us up at waste from the Joey dot com
slash she had made.

Speaker 4 (15:48):
It was from the Jarry.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
And where and Jennie, we do like to also ask
our guess, what is something you think is overrated?

Speaker 2 (16:05):
Yeah, so I'm glad I used that one because it
ties in with my overrated one. And this is a
theme that's just been coming back a lot, especially over
like our troubles and trips with like touring and everything.
But being pathetic is overrated, Being nihilistic is overrated, Being

(16:26):
overly cynical is overrated. And I'm never going to be
the type of person who's going to be like, oh,
have you just tried being happy?

Speaker 1 (16:33):
I think that the put a smile on your face.

Speaker 2 (16:37):
Yeah, I think the the I don't know, I think
the tendency to catastrophize things is like, I don't know,
I think it's kind of insincere in a sense. And
that's just something I'm just really I'm just really over
like I need everyone to get a lot more sincere,

(16:57):
like right fucking now. And I think that this kind
of like bitterness, this like failure to like truly engage
with anything you like or to just kind of be
this shielded by irony like cynic is. It's pathetic and
it's disgusting to me. And I think it's so overrated.

(17:20):
And I think in the age of like the modern
internet culture we exist in, like everyone's so afraid to
embrace things that they like or speak up for things
that they think are wrong or I don't know, it's
just I understand that everyone has feels like they have
like this like overly critical lens on them, and everyone
feels like more exposed than normal. But like bitch, like honey,

(17:43):
expose yourself to eva. Let's let's get naked together, Let's
be out in the sun in front of God. Let's
be sincere.

Speaker 4 (17:50):
Let's see now you got me when you said it
in front of God. That's something I can relate to that. Yeah,
I heard it. I heard that. I heard that. I mean,
I totally get that about the sort of protecting your
ego by being so rapidly cynical about things. It's like, well, actually,
if I'm cynical about everything, then like I'll never be
vulnerable through that.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
Yeah. I think that's.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
Suppose that you're you're like responding discomfort by being like, well, actually,
it doesn't bother me anymore because I've accepted it and
actually like to yeh, you just got to keep feeling
the discomfort.

Speaker 2 (18:25):
And there the opposite end of that too, where someone
like really really likes something, but like when you ask
them about it, they're like, you know, that's okay because
they're they're like afraid to like like, see, this is
why I've grown to have a lot more respect for
people like furries or like mega weves and stuff. It's like,
it's not my thing, but the fact that you're so

(18:47):
into this like inherently kind of silly thing is awesome.
It's awesome. Like I think that's great, Like, like, I
don't know, I think that more people need to be
less afraid to well.

Speaker 4 (19:00):
I'm actually like sincerely just really into zen and the NFL, you.

Speaker 2 (19:06):
Know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (19:07):
And so yeah, I'm out here naked in the sun too,
you know.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
I'm yeah, I'm I guess taking three Zen's in your
upper lip and then doing sports gambling all night. It's okay,
whatever I got. It's like, bro, if that's what you do,
that's awesome. Tell me.

Speaker 1 (19:23):
Let's go, Like, I'm here for your brother banging out
some parlays. We'll get to parlay corner in a little
bit brought to you by Draft Kings. Is that the one?

Speaker 2 (19:34):
But yeah, what's the one where you can beat on
like anything poly market.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
Yeah, yeah, I mean polymarket is trend to get an
interesting direction. Speaking of our first story, the market a
little bit of a The poly market has Cuomo in
the high single digits, so yeah, like in that in
that range as of end of last week, and I

(20:00):
haven't checked my poly market poly market.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
It sounds like it sounds like what you would do
if you're like like a trans girl that just moved
to Seattle and you're like, yeah, I've kind of.

Speaker 4 (20:10):
Been the poly market there you go, what are yeah,
so what are the are the polls are Wait, what
do you mean by what is the not? What is
the high single dude? What I mean like in terms
of how close he is now?

Speaker 1 (20:21):
So yeah, the his chance of winning trended up to
I think nine or eight last week. So people, you
know that there was an article where someone was like,
if this keeps up, like this is a dead heat
by Tuesday that that was the one where someone was like,
my baby doubled in size since it was since it's bural,

(20:42):
this keeps up, he will be three billion pounds by
the time he's an adult.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
Zoran's odds are at ninety one percent on poly market.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
Yeah, I know, so I was gonna say so it
there was a little bit of a Cuomo. Uh, we'll
call it a surge because we have to, because the
mainstream media needs a story here. It did kind of
go back down, and so now Zorn's at ninety's at
seven eight percent. But everybody wants this story so bad.

(21:11):
They just like they're willing it to be true. The
Zoron's about to lose In a shocking.

Speaker 4 (21:17):
Today, the New York Post has potisted Andrew Cuomo would
beat Zoron Mamdani and head to head race for NYC
mayor from according to bombshell poll.

Speaker 2 (21:27):
Uh huhyah.

Speaker 4 (21:28):
And that's like bombshells some survey you've never heard of?

Speaker 2 (21:33):
Cool? Cool.

Speaker 4 (21:33):
I mean, maybe put that on your vision board. Maybe
you can manifest it. But it looks like the my
sources point to know.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
Yeah, we've been working the polls of the magic gate
Ball and it keeps showing us that doesn't look good,
doesn't look good for Cuomo. The yeah, So then New
York Post another another angle that the people are trying
who they're they're trying. They're going Atlas shrugged on that
ass Ron run there.

Speaker 2 (22:01):
And they're like like that that's so much scarier.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
Well, it is pronounced iin that makes sense, Yeah, it does,
I think probably it was. Her name was Anna, and
she was like, uh, could we actually go with my
preferred pronunciation iron. So they're being like, look, we're the
rich people and we're gonna leave this fucking city if
you guys don't elect to Cuomo.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
That's the the childish threat of I will leave and
I'm gonna take all my toys with me if you
don't do what I want to.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
Sure there is this, it says.

Speaker 4 (22:36):
According to the Post, it says around seven hundred and
sixty five thousand people of the eight point four million
residents who call New York City home are preparing to leave,
with about nine percent of New Yorkers sharing that they
would quote definitely leave the city if mum done he
is elected the.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Now are you convinced, Janney, Yeah, no.

Speaker 4 (22:58):
Definitely, dude, they definitely If those residents were to leave,
it would be equal to the population of DC, Las
Vegas or Seattle.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
Essentially.

Speaker 6 (23:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (23:08):
Go, I mean, honestly, go ahead. You know, if you
want to self rapture out of New York.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
City, that would be so many people leaving like that
is that is an exodus.

Speaker 4 (23:17):
I wouldn't make any I would move to New York.
I think I would move to New.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
York like right away for the part of the Wall
Street diaspora, right, But like you, there's.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
A period in for like three days around Thanksgiving when
LA just like all all the people leave LA, like a.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
Lot of the transplants go back to like where they
moved from.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Yeah, and it becomes the nicest place. Like you could
just like drive places without being like this might take
me an hour and a half or it might take
me fifteen minutes and there's literally no way to tell
it took seven minutes. But yeah, it's just it's how
city should be. I'm like, New York is a place
that like had congestion pricing to like try and make

(24:06):
it like miles, you and I sat in a cab
for forty five minutes going three blocks in New York City. Yeah,
like yeah, we could have we watched it. We just
watched people walking, but we you know, we had business
to do. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
Yeah, I remember last time in New York, like we
had gotten like we landed in Newark, so it was
already like a journey the end of the city, but
like we were not too far from our friend's apartment
in Bushwick, but like we needed the sea train to come,
and we were just down there waiting for it to
come for like hours. And I don't live in New York,

(24:44):
so I didn't realize that sometimes the trains just don't
want to go that day, Like sometimes they're just like
I'm having a mental health day and they just they
just don't want to show up. So it took like
it was like a fifty dollars cap bride to get there,
which was awesome.

Speaker 4 (25:03):
It's it's really I just this threat is so funny
to me, like because it's like, yeah, go ahead, leave
one of the best cities in the country for Fort Lauderdale,
like where. And I feel like if you're so incensed
by a candidate running on the most basic shit, like
straightforward shit like affordability, we're not even time like capital
s socialism here, like, then go on, then you know,

(25:25):
have your time.

Speaker 2 (25:26):
And I'm not one of those people who's like who
thinks that mom, Donnie can't do anything, can't do a
lot of the things he's saying because he's just a mayor.
I think he can probably do more than like people
some of it, thinks some of it maybe, but I'm
I'm not sure he can like really make their taxes
go up in a substantial way unless I'm wrong about that.

(25:49):
Rus there's something I'm missing, Like, like I feel like
that would be a something above his purview.

Speaker 1 (25:55):
Well it will be called tithing in his califee right right, right, thing? Yeah, yeah, right,
But yeah, it's it's all scared. I mean, they billionaires
are very scared, and the media, which really like answers them,
are trying everything. They're making it like neck and neck.

(26:17):
They're making it an existential threat to the city. And it's, uh,
it could be.

Speaker 4 (26:23):
I mean, I'd imagine it's people who are so they
just they just believe that he is there to like
do some kind of new Holocaust against the Jewish people
of New York or something.

Speaker 2 (26:33):
Plus the billionaires.

Speaker 1 (26:35):
I think it's the billionaires. I really think it's just people.
And also like he's going to do stuff that is
going to be scary for a capital.

Speaker 2 (26:41):
I think it's also I mean, like with when a
lot of like there's leftist victories happen, it's not always
so much what they're going to do with their election when,
and more so, what that when signify for other people

(27:02):
in the country and across the world, where it's like, oh,
we can win, we can do things, we can't affect
change when they want you to be like, no, just
you can't do shit. Shut up. You can vote for
a Democrat who can do nothing essentially, and things might
not get worse. Maybe they do. I don't know, but

(27:22):
that's the most you can do and you can't do
anything more than that.

Speaker 4 (27:24):
I don't still don't know if Schumer's endorsed, Like on
I think on Friday he was like, I'm still talking
to mom Donnie like.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
About what Jeffries did. Right, Maybe, I mean, I think
the team Jeffries to kind of I have.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
Trying to bore him to death so that he never
takes office.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah, I think that's right.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
I do think it's gonna be extremely hard, Like I
think the forces of capital are going to be extremely
sore losers on this one and make his job very difficult.
But yeah, I think in terms of you know, first
of all, I think nobody thought he had a chance
at getting the nomination, let alone getting a lot, So
you know, with the power of like a lot of

(28:04):
people who this is just common sense good for the
media is going to be like he's failing and you know,
telling that story the whole time. But if he can
find a way, Like we talked about how shine Baum
in Mexico, Like the first thing that she did was
like start holding a every morning two hour press conference
that was just like live streamed and just answered people's questions,

(28:29):
just straight to like talking directly to the people. Like
there needs to be something like that where he's able
to like talk to people about what he's doing that's
not filtered through whatever the New York Post and even
the New York Times want to get out there. But
you know it's it's not going to be easy.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
Well, he's incredibly good at talking.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
Guy fucking loves to talk.

Speaker 4 (28:48):
Yeah, he's very tlid on ar just like with la Right,
Like you have a city council that's already pretty entrenched
with how they do business, so like getting that put
into I think the other part is communicating enough that
people begin to put pressure sure on their city council
members to figure out how they're going to deliver.

Speaker 1 (29:03):
But again, this is Clomo thing though he's talking about
how much Mam Donnie smiles Now, he said, I mean
all these things that people wait, that's what they made
fun of. Yeah, they made fun of on Saturday Live. Yeah,
and so Clomo was like, exactly, fuck this guy. He
smiles and so he uh, he was like, yeah, you
know all these things that people think mom Donnie could do,

(29:25):
like uh, you know, have grocery stores and like lower prices.
He would just smile and they'd believe him, like he's
like some sort of fucking magician or you know, hypnock it.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
Kind of It kind of reminds me of when Trump
was making fun of Kamala's laugh.

Speaker 1 (29:42):
Right song.

Speaker 4 (29:47):
Just funny. So, yeah, Jennie Hakeem Jeffries endorses Mamdani and
then he goes on CNN is asked moments later, is
it is Mam Donnie the future of the Democratic Party?
Jeffrey said, quote No. The lightning rod in terms of
what's going to impact the ability of either side to
win control of the House or hold control in twenty
twenty six, is going to be the failure of Republicans

(30:08):
to actually deliver on the promises that they have made
and to actively make light for everything America. Shit fucking
just the same tired ass playbook again. They're gonna they're
doing the Look at.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
What they're doing.

Speaker 6 (30:20):
They're not even doing nothing well for me?

Speaker 2 (30:24):
Yeah, God, good fucking luck.

Speaker 1 (30:26):
All right, we do have to talk about the new
Ick couple that's taking the world by storm. You say
new Ick couple. I think that, Oh yes, is it's
being called the hug heard around the world by us
just now, just like it's yeah, JD Vance and Erica Kirk.
I mean she was like, I miss my husband, but

(30:47):
no nobody can ever replace him.

Speaker 4 (30:48):
Okay, here, look just listen, listen.

Speaker 1 (30:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (30:51):
So at a turning Point USA event like where again,
jd Vance was brought out to play the role of
Charlie Kirk.

Speaker 2 (30:56):
And do the debating of people from the stage she brings.

Speaker 4 (31:00):
She's about to introduce him, and her whole thing is like,
you know, I just want to say, this is an
amazing person.

Speaker 2 (31:06):
Yeah, and his wife too.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
Sure, sure she's cool, but no one can replace him.

Speaker 2 (31:12):
So here's here it is.

Speaker 4 (31:12):
I just I'll play the I think she's about to say,
and his wife because they're talking about how much the
Advances have done for Erica Kirk since Charlie Kirk was killed.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
They are incredible.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
Well, she's wearing the shirt.

Speaker 10 (31:30):
No one will ever replace my husband. No, right, But
I do see some similarities of my husband in JD
and Vice President jad Vance. I do, and that's why
I'm so blessed to be able to introduce him tonight.
He's an amazing man, so please help me. Welcome to

(31:52):
the stage, vice President JD.

Speaker 7 (31:54):
Vance.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
So she just hit us with the nobody nobody's going
to replace him, but I see that similarities.

Speaker 2 (32:01):
That's a this crazy thing to siy.

Speaker 4 (32:03):
It is a wild thing a widow to say, no
one can replace my husband. Guys, ago, yes, here's and
again this is the thing that's been getting a lot
of tention. So he comes out and this is like
the hug that they share that go out. She give
a little hair touch.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
He's that waist he.

Speaker 1 (32:24):
Said, shorty, let me grab you by the waist. Okay,
the hug on its own did not. I was not like,
what the fuck? But in context of that speech, and
then really the weirdest thing as was reference to my
ak is that at this same conference, maybe even earlier
before that, I think.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
It's after this. It would be after because he introduces home.

Speaker 4 (32:48):
Yeah, because she comes out and then he starts speaking
and then he hits us with this take.

Speaker 2 (32:52):
Yeah that so she could have said just as easily,
like but he's someone who embodies what Charlie Kirk believed
or whatever. I think there's a way to phrase that
that's not as a plan. No, there's a frisson of
eroticism there.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
That is the thing. Like I just remember, like there
were a lot of stories in the aftermath of nine
to eleven where like the fellow firefighters who of like
people who like firefighters who died in nine to eleven, Like,
there were a lot of times they would like leave
their wife for the wives of the fallen firefighters. Like

(33:31):
there's there's a thing that happens when, like you're when
somebody is getting a lot of attention from being a
you know, the widow of someone whose life is tragically
cut short, and then like you are like publicly getting
a lot of positive attention for being the shoulder that
they lean on. But anyways, around this time, at the

(33:51):
same event, Jade Events had this to say.

Speaker 4 (33:55):
Yeah, quote my wife, as I said at the TPUs,
is the most amazing blessing I have in my life.
She herself encouraged me to re engage with my faith
many years ago. She's not a Christian and has no
plans to convert, But like many people in an interfaith
marriage or any interfaith relationship, I hope she may one

(34:16):
day see things as I do. Regardless, I'll continue to
love and support her and talk to her about faith
and life and everything else because she's my wife.

Speaker 1 (34:25):
Similar format, similar structure to the previous statement about look,
nobody can replace Charlie.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
But but when I say one thing, yeah, I don't
buy for a second. Aside from maybe making like photo
op stuff to like appeal to his Christian base, I
do not believe for a second. I mean little Harvard
fucking like god like, I don't believe it. I don't
buy especially like being Trump's guy, because Trump is one
of the most secular people of all fucking time, like.

Speaker 4 (34:58):
And he also killed the Pope.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
And also I do not I also don't think, for
that matter that if he was this much of a
like true like like died in the whole evangelical type guy,
I don't think he would marry a hinmduo in the
first place.

Speaker 1 (35:12):
I think that he is a recent convert which is
what's so weird. That's actually he's a recent convert to Catholicism,
the weirdest people in the world. Later recent convers I
think I personally think he can convince himself of anything
like that. He you know, like people people like that

(35:33):
like he he there's part of him that is believing
the bullshit in in maybe like he's doing God's mission.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
I think he is faking to his very fucking core.
Like I like like for him to like write that
book and like present himself in the way he's presented
itself his whole life. I think that there's like I
think he's just fake. I do not think there's like
a real person in there. Like it's not hillbillyology, it's
it's brettysonellis American psycho. Yeah, yeah, it's psycho.

Speaker 4 (36:08):
When people were like, oh man, what's a kind of
weird statement, he blasted any criticism as being anti Christian discrimination.

Speaker 1 (36:16):
Yeah, and they be like double which is one of
the biggest problems we have in this country. I will
say anti Christian discrimination. Basically Christian nation.

Speaker 4 (36:26):
Yeah yeah, yeah, built on genocidal everything. But yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's the problem.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
That's the problem.

Speaker 6 (36:32):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (36:32):
It's like, I think a lot of people are like,
so is he going to dump Usha to then have
Charlie Kirkirk's widow as his wife to run in twenty
twenty eight? Is Erica the VP on a vance ticket?
There's so many questions. I mean, like, it's just interesting
to see to the two because Cash betel right, he
deigned to embrace Doval he like in a post and

(36:55):
then got torn down by all these maga racist people.
And I wonder if Gene advances, like obviously to be
the president, I will need a Christian wife, and in
this fucked up Game of Thrones esque thing that's happening here,
I choose Erica Kirk.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
Spot just opened up.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
I'm gonna be honest. I don't think people give a
fuck who the first lady is. Not much really think
the breaker thing like.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
We've learned that in this lest Yeah administration, So I
don't really know how beneficial that would be.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
That to what I could see is more likely is
Erica kirk herself trying to have some kind of like
I don't know, kind of her way into the administration.
They're gonna, yeah, they'll find a position for her like
while I don't, well, I'm maybe not convinced that there's
a uh, some romantic Game of Throne style thing at play.

(37:48):
A lot of these people give me swinger vibes, and
swingerism has been kind of hot in the conservative movement.
It's been hotter for conservatives to be in recent years
than it ever has been. And I wouldn't be surprised
if a lot of these people are just fucking and
sucking on the side and that that's father to it.

Speaker 1 (38:09):
I would be surprised if they were not. Yeah, all
available evidence seems to be that, well, they're into calling
people cucks and stuff like yeah, you know, yeah, it's
very corny coded.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
They're going to change the conservative symbol from an elephant
to a pineapple.

Speaker 1 (38:24):
That's right, elephant with a little pineapple, And that's such
a good call about like the Patrick Bateman aspect, Like
when we just watching jd Vance go into a donut
shop is very similar to like watching Patrick Bateman like
interact with people and just be like freaking out, like
his brain just like can't handle normalcy, be like donuts,

(38:49):
all right, how you don't, yeah, so of whatever you
think is ordinary.

Speaker 2 (38:55):
We'll do that I think we've seen years of like
the liberal version of Patrick Bateman, and I mean you
still like Gavin Newsom's very much like a person like that,
Pete boota judge as well, but I think JD. Vance
and uh, like you can feel like Mark Johnson, like
I feel like people like that are an example of
like the conservative type of Patrick Bateman, where I think

(39:17):
that like like the the years of like people like
Bush or like like I don't know, like Mitch McConnell
or like Lindsey Graham, where there's like a southern kind
of affectation to their like conservatism, there's like a folksiness
to it. I think that they're pivoting more to the
like stone Face disaffected like yes, I want to make

(39:37):
the world worse kind of conservatism.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
Which shouldn't be. That doesn't That seems weird. It seems weird.
That's their position. It does.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
It does.

Speaker 1 (39:47):
Let's take a quick break and we'll come back and
we'll we'll talk about the beginning of the season of
Christmas as Dane by Mariah Carey, and also big big
news in the world Chuck Lurie fans, Oh, yeah, who
don't don't know much about chuck LORI, we'll be right
back and her back. And so the trial started. Trial

(40:20):
of the century. Yeah, many sandwich enthusiasts are calling it. Yeah,
this is the guy who threw a sub sandwich that I.

Speaker 6 (40:33):
Don't know.

Speaker 4 (40:34):
Look this guy he cut short the life of a
poor ice agent's ballistic fest when he sullied it with
a sandwich. And we talk look this the trial started
this week, and we talked about how Janine Piro has
been taking a lot of l's with grand juries, trying
to prosecute Americans for fucking nothing as a way to
intimidate people. Well, she tried to get the sandwich guy

(40:55):
in a felony, and the fucking Grange is like, They're like,
get the fuck out of here, what are you talking about.
So now she's going back trying to get him on.

Speaker 2 (41:02):
A fucking misdemeanor.

Speaker 4 (41:04):
Okay, And the whole thing just people that are reporting
from the trial, it's it sounds like as stupid as
it is to try and charge someone for throwing a
sub sandwich at a guy and then running. Border Patrol
agent Gregory Lairmore is on the stand. This is all
from a Blue Sky account from Dave Jamison who is
like reporting from the courtroom. So these are some of

(41:25):
his posts on Blue Sky's quote. Border Patrol Agent Gregory
Larimore is on the stand narrating surveillance video of the
Samy Tass.

Speaker 2 (41:31):
Quote.

Speaker 4 (41:32):
Now he struck me with the sandwich, Larimore says. Border
Patrol Agent Larimore now testifies that he was not injured
by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his
ballistic fests.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
Yeah, this is what he said, sandwich felt the impact.

Speaker 6 (41:48):
Yeah, dude, wait, imagine what would happen if you know,
someone shot at him through the fucking ballistic fest.

Speaker 2 (41:54):
So I swear this is it. That's the sand He said.

Speaker 4 (41:56):
The sandwich came apart and quote kind of exploded on
his chest upon impact.

Speaker 1 (42:01):
Quote.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
I could smell the onions and mustard. H fortunate sun.

Speaker 4 (42:06):
Now okay, because this guy's having a flashback, please please
help him. How is this guy still walking on two
feet after all this? But then this is the best
part the cross examination from the defense. You're like, okay,
so it exploded. This is from the defense. Defense is
now questioning Laramore on cross examination. They show video still
of the sandwich and wrap around the ground post throw

(42:27):
the attorney asked, quote, do you recognize that sandwich?

Speaker 1 (42:33):
Laramore, the sandwich exploded Larry Moore.

Speaker 4 (42:37):
Larimore won't confirm.

Speaker 1 (42:38):
Quote.

Speaker 4 (42:39):
I did not go back to collect it, he says.
The defense team presses Laramore on whether the sandwich really
quote exploded, They returned to the photo of the sandwich
and wrapper on the ground. Defense asked, quote that sandwich
hasn't exploded at all, has it? Laramore replies, quote, it
looks like a little bit is coming out towards the bottom.

Speaker 6 (43:00):
I love a shithead prosecutor defense lawyer type, like, just
clearly you're lying. Clearly you're lying, and now I've got you.

Speaker 1 (43:09):
Also sorry, you want to go ahead and identify that sandwich?
The sandwich looks from familiar.

Speaker 6 (43:16):
Also, here's something they never say. I have never seen
a police officer help themself on the stand, like if
you like actually look into like we don't get that
image of law and order. And it's Lenny Briscoe and
he's like, and then he told me a social insurance
social security number, and I knew it had to be
the murderer because he was covered in blood. And then
you actually watch anytime a police officer gets on the

(43:37):
stand and it's just like and so what did you see?
And it's just like.

Speaker 11 (43:42):
The the accused do the crime. And then you go
to the camera shot, it's like, well, there's you. You're
wearing a you're wearing a blindfold and you're holding the
silences on your blindfolded and cannot see.

Speaker 1 (43:53):
There's a on your head and on your foot.

Speaker 6 (43:56):
Yeah, you're in a concrete tunnel underneath here.

Speaker 1 (43:59):
The falling down.

Speaker 6 (44:01):
Was purported to have taken place for pants keep falling down,
and you discharged your weapon three times to quote unquote
get some light in this goddamn moove.

Speaker 1 (44:09):
Well it eventuated that uh at about fourteen hundred at
you know, they just put it in a cop speak
yeah again, so that it sounds like, I mean.

Speaker 6 (44:18):
You know, it was a ten forty five doing a
double triple and a situation double.

Speaker 2 (44:24):
Yeah, we got a foot along here.

Speaker 4 (44:25):
The defensive strategy is a pretty sound because they're just
trying to show the jury how fucking stupid this whole
thing is. And they even asked the shell shocked Ice
agent about like all the gag gifts that his fellow
coward colleagues were giving.

Speaker 6 (44:39):
Him after the incident.

Speaker 4 (44:40):
They're like, hey, so what kind of stuff they given
you after this terrible ordeal. He's like, I got a
subway like a sandwich plush toy that one guy gave me,
and a patch that said felony foot long wow, put
on my tack vest. And he was apparently even like
kind of laughing on the standard phone.

Speaker 6 (44:58):
So sweet.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
So let the rare weight. So is this a bit
defense right right? You're trying to determine if the state
is bringing the charges as a bit.

Speaker 6 (45:09):
It's a bit your honor objection? I think I'm being
zinged right right.

Speaker 1 (45:15):
We're trying to put him in jail as a goof
your honor.

Speaker 4 (45:19):
I mean, look, this is why Janine Prio probably got
Kim Kardashian to probably prosecute this better than the freaks
they have in that office right now.

Speaker 1 (45:27):
I like Superducer Victor's idea of having doctor Loomis from Halloween,
the guy who like always shows up and is, oh,
you know, like he's just his job is to describe
Michael Myers to people after Michael Myers has killed someone
next door to them, that I prayed that he would
burn in hell. But in my heart I knew that
hell would not have him just like come up and

(45:49):
describe the sandwich throw right right. So in the movie goes,
I've been I've been trick or treated to death tonight,
and he shows up and goes, you don't know what
death is?

Speaker 2 (45:59):
Wow? Wow.

Speaker 6 (46:00):
What's amazing about doctor Loomis as a character is if
you follow through what he did as a doctor, he's
maybe the worst person ever to practice medicine in cinema,
because it's like, you discovered that this child was capable
of black magic and maybe Satan's pawn on Earth to

(46:20):
reap death for demons. And your solution was I'm gonna
read it some nice books and hope it doesn't escape.

Speaker 1 (46:26):
Yeah, yeah, like.

Speaker 2 (46:29):
Appeasement.

Speaker 6 (46:30):
Yeah, what are you the president? During Escape from New York.

Speaker 1 (46:33):
The sandwich exploded like that bird when hit by Randy Johnson.

Speaker 6 (46:41):
Do we have any idea of what the contents of
the sandwich were besides onions and mustard? Now that narrows it,
obviously if you're it could be tuna, but that's a
that's a that's an odd.

Speaker 1 (46:51):
Don't think because if it were tuna, it probably would
have exploded based on my understanding of physics.

Speaker 6 (46:58):
Yeah, well, depending on how damp the bread is.

Speaker 1 (47:01):
Yeah, and it wasn't a planned attack, right the guy
I remember his account, Yeah, his account coming in was
just that saw Ice agents doing fuck shit, had a
big sandwich in his hand, and.

Speaker 4 (47:15):
Yeah, I mean, and then and they couldn't even catch
him on foot. And then they're like, fuck it, we
got this guy's address and then they got at home.

Speaker 6 (47:25):
Are you kidding me? They didn't even catch this guy
like he they he threw a sandwich and they they
had to they had to fugitive him.

Speaker 4 (47:32):
Yeah, they did not apprehend him right away.

Speaker 6 (47:34):
No, your fugitive was carrying a quiz No's foot log.

Speaker 2 (47:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (47:40):
I mean, to be fair to those Ice agents, it
was the first time they ever rang with all that
gear on.

Speaker 1 (47:44):
So that's tough. That's tough stuff.

Speaker 6 (47:47):
Dude.

Speaker 1 (47:47):
Have you tried to do three pushups?

Speaker 12 (47:50):
All right?

Speaker 1 (47:50):
I do want to talk about another great TV lawyer
besides Lenny Brisco, and that is, of course, Kim Kardashian.
She's been making some headlines lately. Usually it's myself to
tune out a news story, but some of these are
pretty entertaining. Recently, she admitted that she isn't a lawyer
yet yet Oh okay, And one of the reasons is

(48:11):
she kept using chat GPT to study slash cheat and
it quote often gave the wrong answer, causing her to
quote failed tests all the time.

Speaker 6 (48:22):
What what does she think being a lawyer is, Like,
I don't understand, Like I.

Speaker 1 (48:28):
I will say, we have a number of stories of
judges having to reject lawyer like lawyers work and like
proofs and what you know, whatever the fuck lawyers do
for being like you. You clearly use chat GPT like
these are made up cases that you're citing as president.

Speaker 2 (48:48):
Oh no, Beggars v.

Speaker 4 (48:50):
Choosers was a landmark case.

Speaker 1 (48:52):
Okay, So yeah, I just want to read this quote
where someone was asking her about her use of chat GPT. No,
I use it for legal advice. So when I'm needing
to know the answer to a question, I'll take a
picture and snap and like put it up there. And
then someone asks her whether she was cheating, and she
classified clarified that it was just a study for her tests.

(49:13):
They're always wrong. It has made me fail tests all
the time, And then I'll get mad and I'll like
yell at it and be like.

Speaker 6 (49:21):
You made me fail?

Speaker 4 (49:22):
Why did you do this, yeah, and it'll reply and
it'll it'll talk back. I think she was saying after
like and like, yeah, I just have to yell at
it a little bit.

Speaker 2 (49:32):
Cool.

Speaker 4 (49:32):
Cool, I'm again, it's it's weird that I expected a
little bit more.

Speaker 2 (49:37):
From Kim Kardashian.

Speaker 4 (49:39):
I didn't think she would scream at a l M
for trying to replace her own intellect and like.

Speaker 6 (49:46):
You made me fail, machine.

Speaker 1 (49:48):
I don't know why if that, maybe I've always suspected
she was like smarter than she's letting on. And like,
I do think like she plays up this stuff to
like just I don't know, like as a as a character,
I'm keeping up with the Kardashians.

Speaker 4 (50:02):
I think as someone who has probably never had to
earnestly study in their life, that she would look at
chat GPT as a way to like augment her studies
for it and somehow feel let down because she's like,
this is perfect.

Speaker 2 (50:16):
Is exactly what I needed. Is someone who doesn't want
to do the work.

Speaker 1 (50:19):
However, there are signs that the chat GPT leakage has
gone further. Another reason she's in the news is a
behind the scenes clip from her new show All's Fair
which we're gonna get to, involves her telling Sarah Paulson,
like great actor Sarah Paulson, that the moon landing isn't real,

(50:40):
citing interviews with buzz Aldrin and the other one.

Speaker 6 (50:45):
Much chat GPT couldn't give you that answer when she
said the other one, did she mean the guy that
we always forget was also up there or she just
couldn't remember Neil Armstrong's.

Speaker 1 (50:55):
I think she couldn't remember Neil Armstrong.

Speaker 6 (50:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (50:58):
Yeah, But to be clear, neither none of the three
people who went to the Moon have ever suggested that
the moon landing was faked, and in fact, there's a
great video where buzz Aldron confronts a person like a
famous moon hoaxer and literally punches him in the face.

Speaker 6 (51:19):
I was gonna say this, didn't like they speaking of
a court case. There was a court case as a result,
because buzz Aldrin's a man in the Air Force from
the sixties, Like he's gonna he's gonna he's gonna drink,
he's gonna drink red meat and he's gonna hit you.
How dare you I.

Speaker 1 (51:34):
Think it was fake? I've seen a few videos on
on buzz Aldron talking about how it didn't happen. He
says it all the time now in interviews. Maybe we
should find buzz Aldron. Do you ever think about that?

Speaker 2 (51:45):
No? I don't.

Speaker 1 (51:46):
Have you ever think about maybe finding buzz Aldron, maybe
asking him what what's real and what's not.

Speaker 6 (51:54):
What happened to people taking into account who they are
when it came to their opinions.

Speaker 1 (51:59):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 6 (52:00):
If I'm Kim Kardashian, I'm sitting there being like, Okay,
I'm famous because my mom and I orchestrated gossip columnists
and released a sex tape at the right time to
go into reality TV show that's really a sitcom. I
probably don't understand rocket propulsion in.

Speaker 1 (52:18):
One which I play a fool, Like on the sitcom
that is purportedly a reality show, I play a fool.

Speaker 6 (52:25):
Yeah, I'm a dumb idiot who's stupid. Maybe I don't know,
like maybe I don't know what the Van Allen radiation
belt really is capable.

Speaker 4 (52:35):
No, but I have seen a out of context clip
from a Conan O'Brien interview with a thing they're.

Speaker 1 (52:41):
Talking about is a Conan O'Brien interview where he Conan
interviewed Aldrin, and he described how broadcasters used animation during
news reports at the time, and people were like, see,
they just cut out all the context. And I think
maybe he was like explaining why there are conspiracy.

Speaker 4 (52:59):
Theories, but yeah, because you're saying it was intercut with
the actual legitimate footage. And she's like that little bit
of ambiguity because it's like, yeah, they did that kind
of shit, but not it's fake because she says shit
like the flag, like there's no wind on the.

Speaker 1 (53:14):
Moon, like the standard like bullshit. It's like, yeah, they
did that. They knew there would be no wind on
the moon, and therefore we're ready for that.

Speaker 6 (53:23):
It's kind of crt too less and say why and
I know this this was referenced by comedian Nik Molin
during Standard Special, but I'll say it anyway, if they
were going to do something like that, why would they
leave so many clues?

Speaker 1 (53:35):
Right?

Speaker 6 (53:35):
You know what I mean? Like, first of all, you're
not hatching we need to fool the Soviet Union that
we're at the Moon, and we're going to do it
with a bunch of famous people who are going to
leak the information right right. The other thing is when
it comes to conspiracy theories, it's just like it's either
like you can always find there's always just a guy
that just lied and claimed it. In the case of
the moon landing, it was probably a bunch of other

(53:58):
Nazis who wanted to count Annazis that did the moon landing,
you know what I mean, Like, I literally know the
guy that started the modern flat Earth movement. I started
open mic stand up comedy with him. But he would
show up at the coffee shop I worked at in
steel muffins and his apartment building had no plumbing, Like
this is just it is what it is, guys. And

(54:18):
I assume the flat or the moonlanding not happening was started.

Speaker 1 (54:22):
By I think there's definitely some KGB seating in there,
like that that was something that they were working on
getting out there because they didn't want to, you know,
admit the ras.

Speaker 2 (54:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (54:35):
Fun, I'd like if the KGB was involved, you know
what I mean, just a guy named Boris maybe.

Speaker 1 (54:40):
Yeah, I mean they they had a pretty prominent role
in early JFK assassination conspiracy theories. So anyways, one reason
she might be pursuing in in quote her legal degree
is to as like method acting preparation for her role
in Ryan Murphy's All's Fair, which the the cast is

(55:07):
fucking stacked. It's just like they're it is like when
Doc Rivers's son played on that like really stacked Clippers
team and he was just like, I don't know if
everybody else is really good, maybe.

Speaker 4 (55:19):
Yeah, maybe you can carry this person. Which doesn't doesn't
work on acting because you do it, you act for
yourself and then the other actors got to do their acting.
So if you're a great actress or you know, someone
like Naomi Watts and then you cut to Kim Kardashian
and do it her line, that might that it might
be actually worse that juxtaposition.

Speaker 1 (55:38):
Sarah Paulson, Teana Taylor, Glenn Close, Naomi Watts, all you
know in Oscar conversations at various points, the show is
sitting at on ron Tomatoes, sitting at zero, an unprecedented,
the very rare zero percent on ron Tomatoes.

Speaker 4 (55:56):
To be fair, it's now it's six personal.

Speaker 1 (55:58):
It got up to sit, got up to say they
saw the zero, they saw that they were getting bad
pressed for that, and they got there. Somebody to go
out and write a positive review for it. Yeah, The
reviews are fairly unambiguous. The Guardian called it fascinatingly, incomprehensibly,
existentially terrible and so awful it feels almost contemptuous for Jesus.

(56:24):
Another grid called it unwatchable, a crime against television and
possibly the worst television drama ever made. Again with actors
who are kind of above being on TV. Like you're like,
oh damn, Like that's wild that they're doing a TV
show like this must be prestige, to quote super producer
on A Jose, that's some prestige casting. And The Nightly

(56:46):
called it said, it's not a hate watch. It's unwatchable.

Speaker 2 (56:49):
This is actually good. This is actually making me more
interested now.

Speaker 1 (56:52):
It does like I don't know it as that bad.

Speaker 4 (56:55):
You kind of got to know, right, It's like watching
Cutthroat Island when it came out because it was so bad.

Speaker 6 (57:00):
First of all, Cutthroat Island is not that bad. I
watched it again in the Pandemic watchable. It's real fun.
Yeah it's stupid, but it's a pirate movie. Like the
cannonballs wouldn't make things explode, all right, fine, yeah, Gena
Davis also wouldn't have that rosy of a skin like
on a shift. Yeah, eat my butt. I don't care yet. Also,

(57:22):
that monkey wouldn't be a fun companion. We're gonna pull
it all these threads.

Speaker 2 (57:26):
Yeah, I will.

Speaker 1 (57:27):
I will say, speaking of eat my butt, some of
those plot lines do make it seem like it would
be can't be fun, which the fact that it has
these plot lines and it manages not to be fun
for many reviewers is pretty kind of kind of an
achievement all on its own. So some clips of surfaced
online when a husband is being grilled for his butt

(57:49):
plugs and pig costume fetish and Watts and Kardashian tell
him that the negotiation so far has been just the tip.
It'll be so much more painful the deeper we go,
which seems like it's beneath Naomi what I don't know that.

Speaker 4 (58:07):
I mean, she must have spent all that twenty one
grams money or something.

Speaker 1 (58:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (58:10):
I like this period of time because what we've learned
is anyone who is famous is just a shill for money.

Speaker 1 (58:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (58:16):
If the Rion Comedy Festival and this drama has taught
us nothing, it's that like everyone has a price, and
it's vaguely lower than you realize, like that's one of
those things where it's like, yeah, they'll just do it
for money, like I'm sure, like I guarantee Glenn Close
was like sipping shardonnay and didn't learn her lines because
it's like it's a Kim Kardashian drama, Darkling Impropress, Like

(58:38):
it's just like they like I get, like, yeah, it's
crazy that all these great performers were with this terrible,
weird person from Calabasas. But also if we really analyzed,
which means no.

Speaker 1 (58:51):
Yes, that's true.

Speaker 11 (58:53):
That is yeah, I don't believe you. How about that,
I promise, Yeah, I smell something earlier. I smell rotten pimpkins.
No your pants and they are a flame.

Speaker 4 (59:04):
Oh fuck yeah no, No, it's because the Spanish is Calabasa,
Cala so Calabasas.

Speaker 2 (59:12):
I guess could be a squash, but hey, same family.

Speaker 1 (59:15):
Vulture has also pointed out that the show has an
insidious vein of Islamophobia, which is just what we need
at this point, including a plot point about a sheik
who wants to behead his wife, and Melos's character is
apparently a Golda Meyer super fan. Oh Israeli prime minister
who said, there's no such thing as Palestinians. So we'll

(59:36):
see it's too early to tell where maybe the Sheikh
is secretly the good guy and the golden Meyer fan
is revealed to be not a good person. We we
it's too soon to know. But the only way to
find out how to tune in Bad and Evil the
show is is to tune in. What if this was
a paid a piece of paid marketing for the show?

(59:59):
Just tear it down, like I feel like it's gotta
be like somewhat effective. Like I, having done this story,
kind of want to watch it.

Speaker 4 (01:00:06):
I mean, I think what, I'll look at the clips
that are on social first to see if they're They're
probably just gonna raise the hairs on my neck, and
I'll be.

Speaker 2 (01:00:13):
Like, I can't this. There's already too much going on.
I can't waste my time with this.

Speaker 1 (01:00:18):
But it'll watch it the same way that I used
to like take shots of tequila with tabasco in it.
You know, it's like some part of me that wants
to hurt myself. Yeah, you know.

Speaker 6 (01:00:29):
Which streamer is this on? I'm sorry if I missed that.

Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
Helloo, Helloo.

Speaker 6 (01:00:33):
I was gonna say this doesn't feel like this feels
like one of the let's throw something at the wall
streamers like this is this has peacock oh Hulu, Yeah,
And every once in a while a little stream around
to call Max written all over and you know, I.

Speaker 1 (01:00:47):
Yeah, you come from the you went under to the
Max siding. You haven't come come back with the rest
of us today.

Speaker 6 (01:00:55):
I only switched, I only stopped calling it. HBO, go
right to it.

Speaker 1 (01:01:02):
All right, that's gonna do it for this week's weekly Zeitgeist.
