Speaker 1 (00:07):
You're listening to prop culture. Hello, this is LUPAG from
Luther for Adventures. I'm an n f T. We're here
to make friendly wagers on current events as dictated by
the fictional missive. That is fictionally due to derive any
ficual moment. Welcome Quirkies, that's you you here, Yes, welcome
(00:28):
Quirky Oh yeah, sorry, I had a pause because I
want to see if James Corny was still in the
use and he still is welcome Quirky's three oh seven.
Oh sorry, I had a pause because I had to
see if Quirkyes was paying attention and she wasn't welcome.
Balls like Jagger eliminated not. It's kind of we've kind
(00:52):
of kind of like become a digital version of Survivor. Yeah,
it's the second week of November. Yes, let's talk about
our tally. If we've been doing this for a few
months now, let's see where we are on this. Do
you really want to get into that The grand pool
of money that we have is four hundred divided between
the four of us. We have done fifty three wagers,
(01:13):
believe it or not. In last place, of course, balls
like Jagger one was zero dollars. He lost all his
money that was provided to him by iHeart Media, wagered
it all, lost it all to us. Quite sad uh
in third place with eighty dollars loot bag for adventurers.
(01:35):
Oh that's me and I started with a hundred, started
with a hundred. You're really you've been when I look
back at the records though p c o O nine,
you were up to two hundred and fifty dollars down
to eight. You were in the two hundreds for a
long time back in those early days. I don't know
what happened. I could be next here. Maybe the chopping
you got a little soft. I think some of your
(01:56):
bets here it seems like you're just giving money away. Yeah,
you're some Yeah, I don't like talk about world. He's
going to get brutally dishonest. Maybe you're a prop shark.
In second place, let's give a big round of applause
for Quirkies three oh seven ninety dollars. Is that you
Quirkies three or seven? I'm currently winning this show Quirky
(02:21):
with two hundred and thirty dollars. Holy cow, Now, if
you had, if you ran away from all of us,
Quirkies and you said, fuck this show, I'm going to
go buy something. What would you buy for two dollars?
I mean, with inflation, what is there a dubio With
two thirty dollars you could buy Senhiser HD six hundred
headphones on ebe m H. I think I'll buy a
(02:44):
fifty seven a microphone, and then you'd still have a
hundred and thirty dollars left. What's your secret? Um? Just
being cynical. And this is a very very um unpredictable show,
the vagaries of prop culture. Um. There's no logic behind
logic or algorithm behind it. You just have to be lucky.
In my opinion, today we extend the friendly wagering to
(03:08):
our friends in the crypto verse. I love prop culture
at gmail dot com or I heard prop culture at
gmail dot com. If you like to place a wager
on one thing, by the way, one thing we can
do with balls like jaggers. We can mint it and
sell it and then he can have that money. An option.
I think that's an option. Yeah. I don't know if
(03:28):
that would bring him back, that would it? Would he
just be I don't know if his soul will be gone.
Because we all have souls. We're n f T s
with soul. Yeah. N f T is really taking a
beating these days. I don't look. I don't click on
my coin base, I don't on my watch o Via.
I don't click on my American Express. I just let
it be. Same with me. I just let it be.
(03:49):
Wat Trova is your bank? Yeah, I'm sorry. H well,
spar Joe as as wat Trova is supposed to sound
like that, Like we watched the watch movies, come on
and chovies, watch Over your Money? Okay, it was a
good It's like a writer's room. Yeah. Well, I didn't
(04:09):
know if that was just a coincidence. Watch Over. Yeah.
Is that still a bank? I don't. I think it's
I think they merged with Wills Fargo. It was one
of those um failing banks during the two thousand crist
We shouldn't call them failing in case they're listening out there,
watch Ova and the watch Ov crazisting condition. What's the
dumbest bank name there is? That's too subjective? Okay, so
(04:32):
this will be a subjective pre existing condition allowed. Oh
my gosh, no money exchanging. I just have in my
mind the dumbest bank name that I can that I've
ever seen, and I think you all know what it is.
I feel like there's one you're looking at. I'm looking
at bank names. Yeah, I'm looking at a list. I think.
(04:53):
I mean, I have one, But since it's not a
money wager, i'll say it truest. Oh, trust is good.
I'm gonna say Santander Bank. It's pretty lame. That is fun.
That sounds like a rocker, like Santana or amphibian salamander Santander,
you like, who crawls across the desert at night. That's
kind of a good idea for maybe a Netflix show
(05:15):
Harlos Santana plays a salamander. Santander could be funded by
the Santana Santander Bank. Well, I'm going to give you
the answer. The dumbest bank name is fifth third Bank.
Oh my gosh. That is very subjective, like because I
don't know, and I think it makes sensitive for a
bank to have a number ish name because they don't
(05:36):
do I agree with you. I agree with you, But
that not that number name? Three? Why No, it's fifth third? Yeah,
that's yeah. What does that name? Man? Do you think? Probably?
Um like the street where he was found? Yeah, fifth
third is that the street it was found. Probably you
(05:58):
don't know that you're making that up. I mean, you
know Sax's fifth avenue. That makes like the most logical
sense to me. All right, so I clearly one that
pre existing condition. Thank you for participating fund for fun.
That's right. We had a lot of fun. I'm glad
we did it. Honestly, it was like super cool and
not shared me up not. I had suggested earlier that
(06:19):
Taylor Swift crash Spotify. I suggested that it was a contrivance,
that it was, that it was fake, right, I remember
that there's a PR racket. Did you follow up with
the Spotify PR people? I followed up with googling everything
I could find on it. That's called research. These Yes,
I researched it. Um, I researched it. I used very
(06:42):
a different many different keywords, and I will tell you
what I discovered. Nothing. It's a mystery. I still think
it's I still think it's a false contrivance, but I
haven't got to the bottom of it. But I've said
that that was a fact, and I think that I'm wrong.
So I don't know. I kind of feel like I
should lose ten dollars. A lot of these wagers are
(07:04):
still in progress. We're not gonna say anyone wins or
loses just yet. Any other old bets um. I think
that's about it. From on the top of my head.
I haven't seen anything, and too, like we do so
many pre existing conditions these days that, like life bits
are hard to come by. That's true, that's true. And
in fact, I listened to the last episode and I said, well,
(07:25):
this is almost all prexisting conditions. Yeah. And they're fun.
They're a thrill. They're always a thrill. It was a
thrill ride. I got lots of people messaging me directly
saying they love the concept of da DA for data
really data. Yeah, and they want me to write my essays.
They want me to write a no vella. What about
a think piece? Yeah, I mean I have no there's
(07:47):
been no request for a think piece officially, but I
it's you know, it's on my docket. Something for Salon
perhaps or New Yorker. How about Philadelphia City paper? Perfect, Okay,
give us the headline data for da DA Is it
like what a baby says? I don't know, It's all
I got. So I haven't really thought about it. I
don't never remember what we were talking about, how in
(08:08):
context that we were talking about n f T s
are going to museums. I just remember the catchphrase more
than anything. Yeah, and I said that the quirkies are
going to be in a museum at a certain city
at one point in the next six months. Will Lutford
Adventurers be an n f T in a museum? No? No, never, never,
(08:29):
No quirkies, perhaps just due to the breath of creative
choices that have been made in regards to our n
f T culture prexisting condition. Oh, it's Lute for Adventurers
already in a museum. No, don't look no, don't look
it up. I say, no, absolutely not. You're gonna be
(08:53):
googling for the rest of the episode. I try to
find evidence. Now I see it right here. Okay, lutfors
n f T is at the Intrepid Museum dot org.
It's an website. It's a website. I'm talking about a
fiscal museum. Yeah, well look up Loot for Adventurers Intrepid.
You can't like it does not count. Okay, the whole
(09:14):
like the reason why it became news was it because
it was its expensive real estate okay, and Trepid dot
org is not expensive fiscal Real and Air and Space Museum. Yes,
it's a it's a real life battleship. And they also
have n f t S. What look up Loot for
Adventurers in Trepid Museum and I clicked on it and
(09:35):
I got a four or four error. We're sorry, but
that doesn't matter. Before it can't be found. Well did
you get did you get search returns? I think it's
fake news, flot yeah, I think it's fake news. Don't
give me that fake news. Come on, all these pages
are four oh fouring yes, no, And it says nothing
about n f t S. It's just loot for adventure.
It just said, it's just the words loot for adventure.
(09:58):
Oh my gosh, you had to take this data and
manipulate it so you could get money off of us.
I think lout is just um fallible to um, fake
news or just jokes. How dare you? I will say
that there's a big article about lout n f t
S by Christina Jorda Nova dap Radar dot com huge
(10:23):
is like this is a novella, okay piece In summary,
Lout for Adventurers have taken the n f T community
by surprise. This is also one of the reasons why
it's becoming such a huge hit craze. Most importantly, this
project brings a whole new ideology for the n f
(10:43):
T space, with virtually unlimited possibilities for derivative calls you
derivative derivative projects has set the beginning of a completely
new type of n f T ecosystem. That's right. Collector
spent twenty million on black images with white text. That's cool. Yeah,
(11:03):
I'm happy for you. It's just you're not going to
be in the moment like me and my wife are. Yeah,
it's time for me to step on ques. Are we ready?
Oh yeah? What's what's going on? In condition? Over the missive? First?
And then no, no, here when you start a pre
existing condition, you got yeah, God, you can't put the
(11:28):
part back in the bee hole. What I'm saying, how
mu should? Ryan Seacrest sells Beverly Hills a state for
can we can I ask where it is? Yeah? Very
I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say eighteen million, four three, yeah,
(11:48):
fifty one million? Oh my god, Ryan, yeah wow. Five
structures set between water features and gardens main house is
nine thousand square feet, a gourmet chef kitchen opening to
an outdoor pizza oven. How much did he sell it for?
Fifty one million? Because I'm reading the headline at Hello
Magazine that's calling a sixty nine point nine million dollar home.
(12:11):
That's what it was offered for but didn't sell for that, Ryan,
you got greedy many condition Part two? Wow? What's not
in the property? Especially from the pool and the teak poolhouse? Oh?
I like that. Actually that's there's a super cool lounge
bar plus a living room with twenty two ft high ceilings.
(12:32):
From whom did Ryan by his house from? Oh? I
used to read it somewhere. Goddamn it. I'm gonna say
I'm gonna go out on a limb because I know
Ryan Seacrest from the show American Idol'm gonna say he
bought it from Paula Abdel. I think he brought from
Simon Cowell. I mean, that's why I actually get points
(12:55):
if that's the truth. Bryan Seacrest is bidding his final
farewell to Los Angeles because he just unloaded his last
big property there. According to t MV, he's selling the
mansion he once acquired from Ellen de generous. Oh wow, wow,
you're back up to a hundred dollars, loot bag. Who
did Ellen buy the house from? Pre pre pree nod?
(13:19):
That's unfair, as que I know you're a gambling addict,
but that's I am a gambling attict. Alright. I'm just
gonna tell you this one. I'll give this yes from
the creator of what sitcom did Ellen by the same house?
From Rosanne bar No money on this. I'm giving you
(13:40):
a mercial and grace. Yeah, lame, Sorry for stepping on,
Nanu nanu, but it's if you'd like to take your
segment back. I'm I've cleaned up there. I'm am I
up to ninety dollars now that I've moved to the
second place. Hey guess would you might have moved up
to the second place. But that's not good for a
(14:00):
show because it's not good entertainment. It's not entertainment. That's
definitely not entertainments. Entertainment. Song and dance, it's here, Oh,
come in the missives here, dear lout bag, and the
(14:26):
rest existence continues to be a gamble here. Today's topics bloodlight,
bear cans, post malone in the news again, you remember
why it was in the news last week because he
filled down his stage. Oh that was two weeks ago.
Last week. He's in the news every week post Malone.
(14:47):
I love that guy. I mean that's what you need
to do to be a pop star. I mean pop
stars go like come and go really fast these days.
And besides, um, I heard one of Quirkies three oh
seven's nieces say, oh for a post Malone's old news.
So if a teenagers on TikTok are saying that, then
he must feel the heat. Well he's on TMZ and
(15:09):
TMZ is so oh currant that it gives me anxiety.
You guys watch TMZ every five minutes. Oh my gosh.
You know what TMZ stands for? Total madness tomorrow preexisting condition.
What does TMZ stand for? Oh my god? Prop culture good?
(15:35):
TMC dot com such a major purveyor of pop culture
in the world, not just America. They've been doing it forever.
It's not the world. No one watches TMC except for
English and American people. TMC made its debut in two
thousand five. Fox bought TMZ from Warner Media for fifty
(15:55):
million dollars. Oh my god, when was that. Wow, I'm
a lawyer. Sorry, this pre existing can condition is um
has to be canceled because I just found what it
meant that you automatically lose. Yeah, I think that's a
that's a violation. That's a violation. Hey, no one made
(16:16):
that rule. Like, no one made that rule. I'm sorry,
obvious you looked it up. Here's a problem with this show.
Nobody really makes rules like before, and it's always made
like on the flight after things are done. So I
mean someone has to make the rule that, hey, you
can't look and we always looking up. I think I
think last week Quirkies three oh seven, like looks something
(16:39):
up like earlier and then like you know, you want
like like thirty dollars. Anywaysist the Exorcist question, like what's
the knew the answer that's called the answer? That isn't
that looking it up? No, that's knowing the answer. That's
not looking it up after you hear the question. There's
a big difference that yes, well you looked it up
because I mentioned it. Hey, like you know, hey like
(17:03):
it ten Tenderer penalty. No there, I mean, hey, I'm
gonna say the Magic Zebra. The name TMZ is derived
from the acronym that was historically used in the film
and television industry to refer to the so called studio zone,
an area with a thirty mile radius centered on the
(17:25):
intersection of Beverly Boulevard and La Sienega and Los Angeles
because of the number of film and TV studios. Continuous answer,
I mean, how many of the we It's been ten
minutes and there's like ten perxistent position. This like episode
is just about you trying to be number one. Well,
guess what, I'm going to go on a role as well.
If that's the case. While you're down ten right there,
(17:47):
down to two twenty and I've gone up to one,
I'm back in triple digits. I mean, I'm just saying
this like this needs to be like spaced out of
it because it's just getting No, it's not that losing.
It's just like that we're losing. And and two, you
could have helped me. You could have whispered it in
my ear so I could have gotten the money, which
I think, guess what. And then there were making were
(18:07):
making rules arbrature early, and it's just being like an
annoying show. So I'm just saying post Malone and TMZ
says post Malone is back in the news. Last week
he did a gender reveal. Uh. This week he officiated
a wedding. Yes, I read that on like TMC Oh,
my gosh, who cares everybody off the sheets? Weddings and
Seattle too Excited fans hopped on stage while postmone was
(18:29):
waiting for them and started the ceremony. The crowd cheered
in the front row. After the couple exchange, I do
post gave the green light for the kiss and declared
them well, TMZ says oddly, post Malone declared them wedded
in the eyes of space. He's an alien believer. It
looks like he's getting a good rep for being the
go to guy for whatever fans want to pull off
(18:51):
at one of his concerts, including the gender reveal and
Tulsa letting a couple of fans know they're having a girl.
As they say t MZ, post Malone delivers, that's a
funny thing to write. All right, Well that was a
nice little story. I thought, that's heartwarming. Well, what kind
of bets can we make? You know, we'll post Malone
release a single in the next month. Well, I mean,
(19:13):
if he's doing everything for the fans. It would be
the trifecta of fan related involvement. Get a tattoo of
one of his fans. Oh, he has a tattoo of
his daughter's initials on his forehead. Yes, so maybe that's
maybe that's a good one. I was thinking, maybe there's
going to be a post Malone booze cruise. I'm going
(19:33):
to suggest a post Malone energy drink because he's an
energetic guy. He's always doing stuff, he's always busy. I
don't know, Like, I'll go with my um uh tattoo. Like,
but but is any a huge bud lighte fan? I
think you know, Oh, you're right, Yeah, before making an
energy drink, you know, I have a feeling that he'll
just like do uh you know bud Light will make
(19:55):
us post malone edition. Oh interesting, Well wait is it?
What's your bet? What's my bet? Actually, I'll go with
a bud Light you know, making um post malone special
um can uh? I will say your bet is void
(20:18):
post Malone bud Light can't already exists two nineteen special edition.
You lose ten dollars? That is are you serious? That's
something that happened. That's true. Make a bet and it
already exists. This is this is ridiculous. Cants. You can
make rules arbitrarily. We've established that in PC. I think
(20:40):
oh five, I think it's PCO five. You make a
bet that already exists, you lose the ten dollars. Serious,
that never existed. That never existed. Come on, yeah, I'm
looking at the can. Oh it's cool. Come on? Are
you serious? Serious? I'm sorry, come on, this is I'm joking.
I'm joking. I'm Joe. It's a joke. Okay, come on,
(21:01):
it's a joke. Okay. So then I'm just going with
a tattoo. But who cares. I'm looking at the post
Malone bud light can right here. Yeah, well guess what
I know. I'm just going to change it to the tattoo.
Like you can't change it, no, like people change their
bets all the time. Like, what are you like? This
is ridiculous. You only change it because it exists. That's ridiculous.
(21:23):
And I predict a post Malon boost cruise. I predict
like you'll get a tattoo of a fan. All right,
we'll let you have that, but you also lose tender
RS for that. No, no, no, and then there were
(21:45):
two Hey, quirkies, quirkies. He's just rolling up. He's just
because he's unhappy because he lost all his money in
the past, and he's trying to I know, I know,
I know he's not going to anymore. Please don't do
(22:06):
that anymore. Please do that for the sake of the shaft.
After this, I won't do that anymore. We're done, We're
done for this. You pay the ten dollars and then
we'll move on. I know, I know, we're moving on.
We're moving on. Next bet, next bet. They're on the floor.
(22:29):
You through, Yeah, right, for give it. I understand your
I mean, I need an algorithm in I just can't.
You're right, you're right, you pay the ten dollars, move on.
Won't happen again. No, he's just saying this. Stop. I
thought that that's what we were doing. That was a
(22:50):
price for listen, loot. I will end this uh episode
right now? Alright, alright, of course, and people change their
bets all the time. This is like, we're done, we're done,
we're done arguing, we're done. Okay, okay. I think it
was just because it's all good. He made the bet
(23:10):
and then we discovered it exists. You're the one. Someone
set up the bet. You know someone was there ever
a rule that we can't change bets in the middle
after after the bet was made, we discovered it existed.
But we'll overlook it this time because here's the thing.
I know this is supposed to be lightheart entertainment, but
my brain does not work, like like in where Les. Yeah,
(23:34):
I know, I'm with you. Okay, we all stand with you.
My brain just does not work. Okay, can history. I'm
gonna get about it. I'm going to do the spacey
sound effect. Now, social truth, should we buy a blue
(23:57):
Twitter mark for prop culture? In fact, leaded my Twitter
account today? What I deleted my Twitter account? I deleted
our prop culture Twitter account today. I'm done with that website.
It was a It's been a complete failure. Nothing good
has ever come for me from that website Twitter, except
sometimes I'll know if celebrities die, I'll know fast and
(24:18):
I get to say r I P Jean luc Godard.
And now you've got Elon Musk banning people for making jokes.
That's lame man. That he's changing the you know what
he's doing. He's changing the rules he's just making arbitrary
rules when there's an algorithm that he needed to follow,
and he's just making arbitrary rules. And you know what
(24:39):
happens when that happens and they quit. I'm signed up
on Mastadon now. So is Mastadon gonna be the next Twitter?
Well that's a good question. But some people, some people
I know personally, I think that Mastodon is the future.
But people are very confused by the Mastodon sign up process.
(25:03):
You have to choose a server. Yeah. Actually I didn't
really sign up for what. I couldn't figure it out.
I'm going to though. Twitter was very easy to sign
up for. Twitter was so easy to sign up for,
and it was such a smooth, clean app. Yeah, fun stuff. Yeah, great,
Well I go back to Facebook. Facebook is pretty good. Well, um,
let me tell you an interesting fact. I'd love to
(25:26):
hear it or more. US President Donald Trump's social network
truth Socialist based on Mastodon. Wow, that would have been
a good prexisting condition. Well, I just did not want
to make one after like, just yeah, I get it
still sort of hot after all. Yeah, Yeah, like you know,
I'll just make a pre existing condition, I feel like,
and I just want I'm on Facebook right now. I
just learned something amazing pre existing condition. Okay, pco what
(25:52):
is Ricky Lake former talk show host Ricky Lake's affliction
that has been solved by a product that she is
advertising for? Okay, okay stuttering? She is um struggling with
her weight of Actually, like I want to change my all?
(26:14):
Is that? Okay? Siasis? Uh? Can we can we lock
in the beats? Yeah? We got locked out. You guys
are blocked down. You both owe me ten dollars. She
is advertising hair loss. Last week we detailed a lot
of celebrities that were leaving Twitter. They're still coming Quirkies
(26:36):
three or seven. Add to that. Also, I will say
maybe I'll try out truth social. I feel like the
celebrities leaving Twitter is sort of dried up a little bit. Really,
you think it's slowed down. But after today though, there
was some stuff today that I think, really and you know,
I was just like, what into I'm almost constantly scrolling
through Twitter while I'm eating Chipotle as I was having
(26:57):
you know, they changed their hot sauce. They got way hot.
It's like ten times hotter. Yes it is, yeah, like
your but they definitely changed their hot sauce and it's like, really,
it's it's so spicy. If this I had to sit
there and go And as I'm going, I'm scrolling through Twitter,
and I'm like, what am I doing with my life?
It's people that I don't even know popping up and
(27:18):
it's like I just used it to follow like my
friends and stuff. That's why if I said if cerebraltis
is deleting hers, I am too. And as the guy
from thirty something Hot Sauce now, like I think, removes
a piece of whining, understanding, real tentative. I'm walking on
eggshells here. Why because I have a pre existing condition. Wow,
(27:40):
it's a binary. What does that mean? There's yes or no? Yeah?
Chipotle responded to the spicy hot sauce. Yes, thank you.
Bar Stool investigates, Is it just me or has a
hot sauce from Chipotle gotten absurdly hotter recently? Yeah? It
says our talk of David portnoy or partner from Parcenny Balls.
(28:05):
Investigative Journalists got an official response from Chipotle. The last
two times he had it, he said to himself, she'sh
this salsa is not for the faint of heart. He's
chowing down yesterday and knows a few of his friends
say the same thing, which is why he had to
ask the world to Chipotle make their hot sauce recipe
even hotter. Yeah they did. They got an official response
from Chipotle. Number one. If they say no, they're lying.
(28:30):
I'm gonna say they say no, but they're lying. I'll
just say, like they said yes, the answer from Chipotle,
we haven't touched the recipe. It's a lie. It's a
freaking line. Dude. I won't taking a beating this episode.
O't Carol, like I mean only said, I mean this
like this thing does an Yeah, it's this, doesn't you
(28:52):
know when he's not being transparent because he's probably probably
works for Chipotle in a spare time. That's all good,
it's all good. Hey, I have a pre existing condition,
look at you. Yes. So, by the way, we're having
fun here, right, I don't know this. This this episode
kind of just like I think. I think I think
(29:15):
we've really turned the ship around. I think we're having
a good time. Yeah. How old is David Portnoy? Good question?
Nine eight seven sixty four. I'm speculating about your very
(29:43):
when's his birthday? When's his birthday, so it's already cast
