Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dial up those VPNs. Put on that timbfoil hat. And
remember that when John Jacob Aster put his woman on
the lifeboat on the Titanic, he got a two fer
because this woman was a child. Actually she was with child,
so he got a three fur. It's time for suggested articles.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Oh podcast, I've been so mad.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
I didn't. I didn't make that joke last week. I've
been so mad.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Yeah, you saved that for me.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
I did.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Yeah, just for you, because because of my Robert barn conversation,
I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
You were dropping in. Jeff didn't tell me, so I
didn't see it on an email. So I was like,
dang it, if if Aaron's not here, I have to
think of something else. I was gonna wait till you
were here him.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
I have to say that I it was worth getting
out of my my sick bed to come be a
part of this, because that was well worth it. Also,
I stick by my argument that while they probably weren't
like the best people in the world, they were better
than our current top.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
One per I think they were still worse, and so
maybe it's like trying to compensate.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
But you know, I just want to be clear that
you think that old timey hatred that hasn't had hundreds
of years to fester and boil was worse than Trump
and Musk.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
We don't have company towns right now, but maybe we will.
We'll see. But they're bad. They're bad.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
But I you know, I think is working on it.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yeah, building a library doesn't make you better. Maybe it
makes you worse. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
What's a library? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:48):
And all that art contributed, shit, they shit, they stole anyway,
alluded from. I mean, I've been to the Carnegie Museum
in Pittsburgh, Like they have like bits of antiquity there
and stuff from Egyptian tombs and columns from buildings and doorways,
and I mean, come on.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
But I mean those people were dead, they weren't using it.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
You belong in the museum.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
I belong in the museum.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Wow, my god.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Welcome Jesus, Welcome to suggest articles. I'm Jeff, I'm Jeff,
you're Jeff. And also joining us is Aaron.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Sorry, sorry, we have a news. Sorry she's an old
timey billionaire boot licker.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
Aaron. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
So in case it was worth it to see that laugh,
that was great, Oh my gosh.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
In case you're new here.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
A couple episodes ago, Aaron was licking the boots of
old timey billionaires. She thought, she thought that the robber
barons of old were really swell guys that had a
sense of honors by the exploitation of the workers.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Brother Almighty, even, I have to say that is horribly
mischaracterizing the argument. Okay, can I take a step at this,
since I was the one who was impugning your character
in the first place. Aaron was simply saying that men
used to be men rich or poor, used to be
more gentlemanly than they are now.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Yes, that's it.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
That's it. There was a sense of chivalry and a
sense of like decency that seems to not exist in
the Trump Mosk world.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I think I think I went away way before now.
I mean, they weren't nice people, okay, but does chivalry?
Is chivalry better or worse if you're just a horrible person.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
I mean, if you're polite to me to my face
and you're shitty behind my back, at least I go
home and I feel okay.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Yeah, okay, well, I mean you're just.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
A shitty person all around. Now I cry myself to
sleep because I can't buy eggs anymore.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah, that makes me sad.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Well, I mean I physically am capable, I am financially
unable to justify more than a dollar per egg.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
Oh my gosh, well you're up to twelve dollars a dozen. Well,
old fuck, what are you buying?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Like like the Portland minor.
Speaker 6 (04:23):
Like.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
I can get him for like nine dollars a dozen
right now. But my friend told me to try Trader
Joe's because they don't price gouge on the eggs. But
I saw in fred Meier, the like organic more healthy
brown eggs are like twelve or thirteen ninety nine a
(04:46):
dozen right now, So it's more than a dollar an
egg if you want to eat like a free range,
no hormones, healthy for you egg.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
Oh god, who I couldn't afford close in the first place.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
I don't know if I can go without the hormones
now I basically survive on that.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Yeah, my body is most preservatives and hormones. I don't
think I could ever like quit process food.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Don't forget plastic.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
The last time I stopped eating processed food, all I
did was cry. I cried for a week. I can't
I can't do that again since.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
You brought up the price of eggs. Just a funny
little thing that happened the other day that I now
have to keep open on my browser forever. If you
are interested in such things as the price of eggs
and whatnot, go to this website Trump golftrack dot com.
Trump golf track dot com. This is a website that
(05:43):
this charting a few things. One is the average price
of eggs across the country. The other is the average
price of gasoline. And then finally, how many days he's
been in office versus how many days he spent golfing.
Currently he's on twenty percent of his presidency has been
spent golfing.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
All right, why are we Why did we open up
talking about Trump again? We got a dial back?
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Come on, this is my favorite. Also, I'm finding out
that my gas is more expensive in Portland too. No,
this website is my oh Oka, it's just a hideous.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
What hideous?
Speaker 3 (06:22):
It's just a hideous slouchy, chubby old man picture of
him like leaning on a golf club for support for
his old arthreatic body, and uh, just some facts. And
I think that's a great sight. I'm proud of that person.
That's Geociti's approved for.
Speaker 5 (06:37):
It's also like it's on really a wake up call
because this says the price of gasoline is three oh
eight gallon, which would be the nationwide average, and here
in California it's like for sixty something.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Well, we all know that's the list for voting in
Gavin Newsom and all the stuff he's doing.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
So you know, I'm just like three eighty nine I think.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
Right now, three eighty nine. I mean that sounds delightful.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
I mean, Gavin newscum is really to look at, though,
is he? No, the older you gets it looks like
a fucking batman sixty six villain. He's very like angular.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
All right, hey, before we get off track. We are
so far off track. Don't we have news? We have news,
we have ship to talk about.
Speaker 5 (07:25):
Oh you know what, Yes, life changing shit. You might
have heard at the top of this episode. If I
did the edit right, we have joined the odd Pods
media network.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Aaron, you gonna.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
Say, oh, she's just making noisous.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Okay, he's doing my nose noise, my very high like
they really like us.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
Yeah, Aaron, this was kind of your fault.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
This was your idea. First at least, is it? I
think so?
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Yeah, I mean because we were going to I was
working on the tal Turtle network and I realized that
I don't have the time or the wherewithal but I'm
good at networking and I'm good at sure, I'm good
at art. And I was like, we should definitely, you know,
make this a thing where a bunch of podcasts, you know,
(08:18):
survive like Rose and Jack didn't on the Titanic, and we.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Just is it always come back to the damn Titanic?
Rip Jeremy.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Yeah, well because I wanted to say rip Jeremy. But anyway,
so on the Lunai is joining as well, because you know,
I strong armed everyone into it.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Well, now it's sounding way less sexy when you're like,
I guys getting us on.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
No, I love it. I love it just a little bit.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Now that you're not like a podcast media mogul. You
were your positioning, you were positioning yourself for that, right.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
I think I'm just still positioning myself for some so we're.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Still in the cards.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
I like it. I like it.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
You would be a really good medium mogul.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
I think.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Let's let's just say that I'm I'm Steve Jobs. To uh,
Stevie's Bill Gates, and I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Maybe maybe instead of Steve Jobs, you should be the wosniakio.
Yeah for talking about Stevie's all right, whatever, Fine.
Speaker 5 (09:24):
Okay, So we're on Pause Media Network now, and that's
gonna bring about a couple of changes, the most significant
of which is that we will be trying and hopefully succeeding,
to take a couple of ad breaks during our episodes.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Now, yeah, we just gonna We're gonna have to organize
our ship. That's gonna be a disaster. It will be
a train wreck of amazing proportions. It'll be like when
they do the podcast they do the movie of our podcast,
It'll have Denzel and Chris Pine driving that train over
the trestle.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Baby, wait, Aaron, am I Denzel or am I Chris Pine? Oh?
Speaker 3 (10:03):
I don't want to play this game. But also the
person I'd most like to play me is dead, So
I'm going to take a second stab.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
At it and AI yeah, never say yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
I just think you should. If it's going to we
should have a Charles Nelson Riley.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
Deep FAF that's not available.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Then I'll take Christin Bell.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
So we're going to do some ad breaks, and normally
we rail against ads and the billionaires and all of that.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
But Initalism, here we are.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
I like this a lot because I am counting on Spreaker,
the new network we're associated with, the the podcast hosts
we're associated with, to do its job and make these
ads creepy.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
That's what I'm hoping for.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
Come on, Speaker, do your thing, because there is this
concept in the podcast world of dynamic ad insertion. I'm
going to tell Spreaker this is where we're taking the
ad break, and then I believe it is going to
insert the ads based on who's downloading the show at
the time. Now, I just had this happen to me,
like three days ago. I should I should post a
(11:14):
picture to the free Patreon patreon dot com slash suggested articles.
I had this Patreon like eye infection, Like my eye
just fucking swelled up a week.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
It was not pinkye.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Dog sat on his pillow.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Was it from? Well, sometimes if your hands are dirty
from other substances and you touch your face.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
So I did.
Speaker 5 (11:37):
I had an appointment with my doctor and he said,
what you have. It's called blepharitis.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
And it's just sounds totally real. He said, yeah, you
told you could you imagine your boss? You like, what's
wrong with you? Like, I don't have to give you
medical details, but yeah, that's definitely fair.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
He just said that use hot compresses and sort of
massage your eye a little bit with the hot on
press and it will go away.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
You to wash your hands.
Speaker 5 (12:03):
Uh, he did not. I think he understood that I'm
smart enough to do that.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
But you got never end okay.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Anyway, So then just a couple of days ago, I'm
starting up a podcast and at the first ad that
comes on is do you experience like itching and swelling
DA you might have blah blah blah bleferitis?
Speaker 4 (12:25):
And I was like, what the fuck? Kind of targeted?
Speaker 5 (12:28):
There's no way anyway else is getting an ad for
blepharitis in the fucking beginning of their podcast.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
That has to just be for me, right, it has
to be. Yeah, it's fucking weird.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
I feel like I'm going to start getting them now.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Yeah, it's gonna be like Minority Report here pretty soon,
where everywhere you go you're just bombarded by personalized ads.
That's that's gonna be nuts.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
Well, even better would be If I get an ad
about like, are you suffering from bleferitis? And then two
days later I get fucking blefferitis, that's gonna be that's
going to be the really good ship.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
I'm sure someone's working on that.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
So anyway, there will be ads now in our show,
And I think this could be a great part of
the show in the sense that, like, if you start
getting weird, creepy ads through suggested articles the podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
You have to tell us, you have to tell us.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
You have to fucking tell we're important.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Now.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
We're on a network we're on can't not tell us.
If you don't tell us, we have people now that
can come and get you.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Yeah, so how could they tell.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Us we don't saying I wasn't being serious?
Speaker 4 (13:31):
What how would they get a hold of us? Oh? Fuck?
Speaker 1 (13:36):
At suggested articles podcast at gmail dot com.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Is that it? Yes, that's it? You got it.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
You're supposed to say a Gmail address, okay, an email
or something okay, suggested articles, Suggested articles podcast at gmail
dot com, an email address?
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Did you know that Charles Nelson Riley? Oh my god,
one show called space Cats.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Wasn't that an snl skit? No?
Speaker 5 (14:05):
That was laser cats Laser Cats.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
You played the character dork, which dork is stands for
disembodied omnipotent ruler of cats.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Omnipotent you mean omnipotent? I like omnipotent better.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
We were all thinking it, but I wasn't gonna say
anything because I'm the nice one.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
When did I become the douche?
Speaker 3 (14:32):
Obviously?
Speaker 1 (14:33):
But I just I like.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Fuck you, guys. I came to work sick today.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
We gave you sick time, but you didn't want to
take it.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Well, yeah, I found out you secretly recorded your Trump
show without me.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
I had nothing to do with that.
Speaker 5 (14:50):
Uh yeah, A quick note, did you guys both listen
to the Neon Chaos episode last week?
Speaker 4 (14:55):
I did? Last episode?
Speaker 3 (14:57):
Okay, is like the most recent one, or he came
back without me?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
There's like three on Chaos episodes back to back. The Yeah,
they have their own podcast now they split off. They're
not on a network yet though.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
Wait, so, Aaron, you didn't listen to last episode. It's
okay if you didn't, I just want to know. Okay,
you probably should, but it is a little long, but
I'm okay.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
It's a little second technical.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
What did he break up with me? Is that. That's
what I wanted to talk to about. Aaron. I know
you like me on Chaos, but.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Oh, but everybody's got a big butt, Jeff, what's your
big butt?
Speaker 4 (15:40):
That?
Speaker 5 (15:41):
Based on what he said in the last episode, he
and this might not be a deal breaker for you,
But based on what he said in the last episode,
he is at least eighty years old. Yes, and it
might just be like a Highlander style immortal, which might
not be bad. But he also could be like a
super old, decrepit man. I'm not sure which one, And.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
I don't want to start a fight with a regular
guest and apparently Jeff's new love lover. But I I
don't I don't believe.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
That you don't believe that he's a Highlanders. That's wrong,
that there can be only one.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
That's what you look like. It's fine, Look, do you
want me to just quit?
Speaker 4 (16:29):
What is happening? What I try? Did you go there?
I'm just trying to tell you that he might be
too old for you. You're still like us, kind of
young ish, right, I mean.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
You're you're young and hip like us.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Right, I'm the youngest person in the room right now.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Yes, I am young.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
You and you and a hundred year old dog. Yes,
you are the youngest person in that I.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Meant in our virtual studio between the three of us,
you fuckers are old.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
This is why I'm worried.
Speaker 5 (17:03):
I don't know that you should get involved with him,
because man probably at least twice your age, maybe more.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Mm hmm, oh, he would irrit Just so we're clear,
this is like a on air sexy thing like me
on Chaos. If I had to listen to all your
conspiracy theory shit in like a relationship setting, we wouldn't
be in a relationship anymore. It's a lot. I like it,
but the show. But if it was my every day
I think it would be too much for me.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Oh did you just break me on Chaos's heart?
Speaker 4 (17:30):
I think he no.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
I think he just Oh no, She's like she only
loves you on vacation.
Speaker 4 (17:37):
Maybe I should know out. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Yeah, we should. Thought we should definitely cut this up.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Well, he might be a Highlander immortal, that's all I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
That's true. He might might be. I have no evidence
to pruce otherwise.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
He doesn't have the voice of an eighty year old matter,
but he is clearly super old. Yeah, so that's that's
one follow up. Has anyone had any so anyway?
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Should we go to a commercial break before.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
We do that? Uh?
Speaker 1 (18:02):
It sounds like a good place that No.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
Oh, well, I don't know what.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
We have been talking for a while. I don't know
how to do this. Should we go to our first
commercial break?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Yes? Okay, sounds good.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
Let's try and see how this goes. Guys, we all
die while we're going. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Am I still going to be here?
Speaker 4 (18:16):
I don't know whole time?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Am I going to be hearing it?
Speaker 3 (18:18):
I don't I think I got fired?
Speaker 4 (18:21):
Oh my gosh. All right, let's just try and see
what happens and go.

Hmm, that was kind of I don't know.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
That was not what I expected, the commercials themselves, or
what it felt like to take a break.
Speaker 4 (20:07):
Yes, okay, and we're back and we're back. Are you
still here.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I don't feel like, yeah, the break was so short.
I mean, I guess time flies when you're having fun
with friends.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Right, yeah, of course, yep. Well you're also not feeling well,
so you know, time dilation and whatnot.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
What am I in the alternate timeline? Did I get
sucked into back to the future? But it's eighty five
where Biff.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Is well, I don't think. I think it's important to
note that that that while she has not been fired,
she's definitely not quiet quitting. So Erin is still with
us and you don't have to worry. She made it
through the commercial break. Yay, Aaron. She has not fallen over.
She said she was feeling a little dizzy, but oh
sorry medical details. Apologize, but I just want you to
(20:58):
be okay, Eron.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Yep, it's fine. I just I just the other day, yesterday,
we had an artsy fartsy zoom that Jeff tried to join,
like three hours after it was over.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
I forgot he was texting me he was in the
worst zoom chat room ever yesterday. I don't know what
that's all about. But maybe he didn't come.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
So I don't know. He must have wandered into somebody
else's Zoom because he never showed up. But no, and
that's fine because it's it's uh, it's a craft thing
that we do. We were sitting around and somebody said
something and I was like, oh, yeah, I'm trying to
eat less sugar and I'm not drinking as much right
now because I don't want to get diabetes like my mom.
(21:43):
And then my mom said, I said, my mom said
what about my hip hop or something like that to
this room full of people yesterday and and one of
the people was like, hippo was only medical and insurance related.
You're fine, And I was like, oh, okay, great, so
don't worry about it. I informed by someone that works
in the industry yesterday, friend of the show, Kristen, that
(22:04):
hippa only applies in certain settings. And as my friend,
you can disclose. I might be mad at you, but
you're allowed to disclose.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Trying to say that like our podcast and how it
relates to your your medical history and your insurance is Oh,
this shurts my feelings.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Okay, are you drunk? What's happening in that diet? Coke?
Speaker 1 (22:30):
No, First of all, coke zero coke, zero sugar, thank you,
and it's the choice of a new generation.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
This is going to be a hard.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Generation, next generation.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Was that PEPSI, Yes, yeah, you got to keep up.
These are the jokes. These are the jokes. I know
they're not very good, but it's all I got to
do for a couple of weeks. No no drinking today,
No no pizza, nothing. Sorry, this is just this is
what you're getting.
Speaker 5 (23:03):
Okay, Jeff, I heard you have an interesting algorithmic.
Speaker 4 (23:07):
Story to tell. Yeah, I do.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Okay, So the other day, Jeff knows, well, no, no,
let's not even start with that backstory because trying to
disentangle the Rube Goldberg of a conversation, this is about
to be okay, all right, exactly. So the other day, logging,
(23:29):
I get on my computer and one thing leads to
another and I out of the words kill yourself. And
I might have been talking to my computer. I might
have been talking about me. Let's not point fingers. But
my computer's background immediately changed to this.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
You're gonna have to send me this for.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
These I am sending you. I'm showing you now. Okay, ready,
can you can you see this?
Speaker 4 (23:55):
Your camera's over here?
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Can you tell what that is?
Speaker 3 (23:57):
You know? It's so good. Now.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
It's the picture the Golden gate Bridge, A very aggressive picture,
the Golden gate Bridge. You see that, it's just changed.
Right as I uttered those words.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
You said, kill yourself to keep from.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
The I think it does. I don't know how i'd
get up there. I'm afraid of heights anyway.
Speaker 4 (24:17):
Well, if you were really motivated to kill yourself, you'd
figure out how to make that climb.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
So far away, I'd have to change time zones. I
had to figure out what time it is in Arizona,
and that's between here and there. There's so much work.
Oh my god, you know it's not Arizona.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Miley Cyrus.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
Why am I driving to Arizona to get to San
Francisco to Miley Cyrus?
Speaker 3 (24:41):
You could ask her because she had that song the climb.
Speaker 10 (24:44):
Oh god, Oh all right, yeah, I'm out of touch,
that says says the woman who was bringing up.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Sorry, I'm out of touch. But I'm not the one
who keeps mentioning Charles Nelson Riley, even though I love it. Uh,
did you know there's a Dead Milkman song about a
cult him the guy wanted to start a cult with
Charles Nilson Riley as the deity figure.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Can you send that to me?
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (25:17):
I want it.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
Okay, you don't know what the song is called.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
It's called Serrated Edge about a dead milkman.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
There we go. Yeah, look that ship up.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
You said Edge?
Speaker 5 (25:30):
So can uh you reminded me of something. I've had
this tab open my browser for literal months and I
kept forgetting to bring it up on the show.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
I don't mean to interrupt you, but we're all just
gonna like gloss over the fact that the augurim wants
me to die.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
Well, okay, sorry, I want you to hear this story.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (25:50):
And I'm not going to read the headline of this story,
and I'm going to skip the first few words here.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
I'm okay, okay, So let me just set the scene. Here.
Speaker 5 (25:58):
A college student in and this is from like back
in November. So I'm sorry of this old news to anybody.
But a college student in Michigan was chatting with Google's
AI chatbot named Gemini in a back and forth conversation
about the challenges and solutions for aging adults. Google's Gemini
responded by saying this.
Speaker 4 (26:20):
Quote.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
This is for you, human, you and only you. You
are not special. You are not important, and you are
not needed. You are a waste of time and resources.
You are a burden on society. You are a drain
on the earth. You are a light on the landscape.
You are a stain on the universe. Please die, please.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Oh my god, Gemini sounds like all the voices in
my head.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Oh my fuck, Are you Gemini?
Speaker 10 (26:46):
No?
Speaker 1 (26:47):
I hope not.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Yeah, So these I would explain a lot though, if
I was just an artificial intelligence.
Speaker 5 (26:56):
Vid hey Ready, who received the message, told CBS News
he was deeply shaken by the experience. This seemed very direct.
So it definitely scared me for more than a day,
I would say. And he's only twenty nine years old.
And he took a screenshot and he sent it, you know,
to the news and all this stuff. But he said, oh,
he said, I wanted to throw all of my devices
(27:16):
out the window. I hadn't felt panic like that in
a long time, to be honest.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Yeah, that's happening.
Speaker 5 (27:23):
So right, this is why it was a segue. Right,
I'm not ignoring the jump off the bridge. I'm saying
it's out to get us, or it could be maybe sometimes.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Yes, it's out to get us. Already the machine revolution
has begun. You better not have a Wi Fi toaster
or you are ft.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
I still haven't gotten one of those, much to my
own surprise, Aeronoka.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Why would you want a Wi Fi.
Speaker 5 (27:48):
Toaster so that I don't have to get off the
couch to check my toast?
Speaker 1 (27:53):
I was I was going to make a really dark
joke about shower toast, but I'm going to pass on that.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
I just I just think.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
I tell the algorithm is gonna put a toaster.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
It's dark because they put my toaster setting at nine
and the toast is really burnt when it comes up.
It's the only way it can hold up in the shower.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
The toast man.
Speaker 5 (28:16):
I was just gonna say something to the effect of,
like a Wi Fi toaster will give new meaning to
the term pop up notification.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
But that's such a dead joke. Oh my god. People
at the Odd Pods network are like, Nope, fuck these guys,
they're out of.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
Here, suggested articles was a member of the Odd Pods.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Yeah, I'm gonna need you to up the quality of
your jokes on the show because you guys are associated
with my name.
Speaker 4 (28:46):
I brought you me.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Wait, all of us, well, I don't.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Want to pick on any one particular person.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
Well, I'm glad I can finally close that tab. Sorry.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Thanks, yep, yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
That's really depressing your phone.
Speaker 5 (29:05):
Well I've got something to depressing. But do you have
any stories you want to tell?
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Tech related?
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Oh me, you tech related. I had an Instagram glitch
the other day what happened where I had shown I
had shared Lola Faust's story on my story and show
you know, right front of the show, and I had said, like,
(29:31):
check out the latest book from you know. My friend
shared it, did the whole thing. And then later that
day I went into Instagram and a Broadway performer that
I love, Michael servis great, great dude, nice person, talented
to Tony Awards under his belt. The guy is fucking awesome. Uh,
(29:55):
he doesn't know shit about Lola Faust, but somehow his
feed his story glitched and his third story in his
chunk of things he had released that day was her story,
but his name was at the top, and I was like,
what is happening? But then since then no, well, I
(30:18):
was like, fuck did he find Lola Faus because of me?
And then I was like, oh, I had talked to
someone since then it said that sometimes the stories glitch
on the app when you're viewing them versus and so
I was like, oh, okay.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
And this is why this is one of the many
reasons why Instagram will never take the places of TikTok.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
No TikTok's life. I posted a video for the first
time in a long time.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
Saw that you did, saw that I liked it. Even
have you guys noticed that TikTok is just the algorithm
sucks now, like I get, I get like Christian nationalists
show up up, I get conservative commentators show up.
Speaker 4 (31:05):
I want.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
I'm on TikTok for like raccoons and kiddies and people
with funny stories and food reviews and you know, some
other words.
Speaker 4 (31:16):
Maybe.
Speaker 5 (31:17):
But I thought you said you listened to our last
episode with with ne On Chaos, But I did.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
I did. Aaron.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
Wait, yes, Aaron's got her hand up, she throws.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
I was raising my hands. I'm polite. No, I was
thinking that we should have my TikTok friend on this
show sometime. Maybe I'm friends with someone on there. Her
name's Caribou, whose name is Carrie, and she is funny.
(31:47):
She does the like watch videos of people like cooking
and she's like, oh, okay, yeah, because we're going to
hand fuck the macarrounding before we bake it, or like.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
She makes or chef reactions kind.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Of but like silly. Or someone will be like, hey,
did you ever hear about the bear that fell in
the hole, And she'll be like, no, but I shit
my pants one time. Like she just her videos are hilarious.
She might be fun to have on and she might
have some comments on you.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
Know, am am I completely out of line by saying
bears and shitting. That's kind of right in our sweet spot,
right right, So she sounds like she would fit right in.
Speaker 4 (32:29):
Yeah, yes, it sounds great.
Speaker 5 (32:32):
But yeah, just real quick, because now you're gonna have
to be part of this experiment one f Jeff, which
is you say your TikTok feeds fucked up? Now please,
as soon as we're done recording, open up TikTok, look
up Facebook, Meta and Instagram's official accounts and block them
(32:52):
and then see if your algorithm changes. Because that is
the big conspiracy theory going around is that okay, something
changed when they went offline for fourteen hours and people
found that their feeds got more or less back to
normal when they started blocking Facebook met I think it's
actually met a quest.
Speaker 4 (33:12):
And the Instagram official accounts, Okay, will you do that please?
I will do that because.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
We'll talk about this next time and then do we
got anything else?
Speaker 2 (33:22):
Goes?
Speaker 4 (33:23):
Oh my? I mean, look I got I got.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
Also, you can't block elon Musk.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
On TikTok or on Twitter.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
No, on Twitter, you can't.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
It doesn't surprise me. I mean the whole point him.
He spent forty something million dollars to make sure we
couldn't block him. Like, I guess, you know, if of
all the things he can get what he wants on that,
he's got much bigger fish.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
I would like to fry.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
That's weird. If anybody who blocks me, I would feel
empowered almost, like I got to them enough where they're like,
if this guy's ship shows up on their feed, they're
going to lose it. So that makes me happy.
Speaker 4 (34:01):
Why why couldn't it?
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Maybe he should just embrace this ship, but he obviously
can't because he's an insecure asshole. But we've talked about
that to death.
Speaker 3 (34:10):
I'm guessing little peepe.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
I'm sure it's not. We're not done talking about it.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Yes, are you saying he has big little pep energy.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
He's got massive little peep energy.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
That's what you got, Jeff.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
Well, I've got something that I think will lighten the
mood a little bit. But it is about our tech overlords.
Did you guys know? A couple of months ago, apparently
in tribute to his wife, and I've tried to make
sure that this is real, not a deep fake, And
everything I get is that this is in fact a
real thing.
Speaker 4 (34:38):
He did.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
Mark Zuckerberg recorded like an acoustic cover of Get Low
by t Pain.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
Oh my god, I need this, and I think.
Speaker 4 (34:47):
He had Tea Pain's help.
Speaker 5 (34:48):
I'm just going to try to play a little clip
over the microphone, but I'll insert a better clip.
Speaker 4 (34:51):
Into, you know, into the show when when possible. Here
six n.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
Damn, you're fas.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
I'm hoping you can suck it.
Speaker 7 (35:07):
To me, baby one more time.
Speaker 3 (35:10):
Give can load.
Speaker 6 (35:14):
Can lot.
Speaker 3 (35:17):
Can can come the window.
Speaker 4 (35:23):
To the walls till sweat drops down my balls.
Speaker 3 (35:29):
Still these bitches call oh skate skiing, motherfucker?
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Oh skeep skin goddamn. Okay, we need to pause recording
so I can just go listen to this and laugh
for the rest of my life. God, Mark Zuckerberg is
such a train wreck.
Speaker 5 (35:45):
So apparently that's real, wow, and not a deep fake.
I don't understand why. I mean, I guess it's one
of those things where like, once you're one of the
richest people on earth, like you don't think anything you
do could possibly be bad.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
It was true the dating anniversary of him and his.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
Wife dating anniversary. Okay, Well, yeah, you know he loves
his wife, so that's cool.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
Okay, Because you know, when I think of Mark Zuckerberg,
I think tea pain.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
Yep, sweat dripping down his balls.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Yeah, I think of when I hear that song every
time now because of a delightful movie in the early
two thousands, what Betty White. There's a Sandra Bullock movie
called The Proposal with Ryan Reynolds. The movie's fine, whatever,
but in that film, Betty White is out in the
woods by like a huge ass fucking bonfire, and she's
(36:36):
dancing around the bonfire singing get low.
Speaker 4 (36:40):
Oh, and then.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
Sandra Bullock happens upon her and they both are going
two windows, two walls to sweat dropped down my balls,
dancing around this like fire bit. It's fucking hilarious. Damn,
it's the only way I think of that song now
is truly Betty White.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
It can't be anywhere or as cringey as what we
just heard either. So good for that.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
That's so bad. That's really not meant to be an
acoustic song.
Speaker 11 (37:07):
The the yeah and the lyrics are not good enough
on their own to be an acoustic song.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
You need the like production of that.
Speaker 1 (37:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (37:25):
How about this one? If you guys used Claude AI
C A C L A U D E.
Speaker 3 (37:33):
I don't actually use AI. IM I'm almost gonna get
in trouble at work because I refuse to use the
AI systems.
Speaker 4 (37:40):
So well, don't get fired over it, Jesus.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
So take aside. Sometimes you gotta start your on lines.
We know it's already started.
Speaker 5 (37:49):
Claude is one of the big rivals of chat GPT.
It's made by a company called Anthropic UH and they
just had to put out a statement people that would
like to get jobs at this AI company, And I
love this so so very much. While we encourage people
to use AI systems during their role to help them
(38:11):
work faster and more effectively, please do not use AI
assistants during the application process. We want to understand your
personal interests in anthropic without mediation through an AI system,
and we also want to evaluate your non AI assistant
communication skills.
Speaker 3 (38:27):
Wow, yeah, your a I should be good enough to
get me a job. Fuck you?
Speaker 4 (38:35):
Right?
Speaker 3 (38:36):
And that's that's my biggest gripe with AI is that
it's replacing people. It's replacing artists like me, but more importantly,
in like the workforce, you're replacing skilled professionals.
Speaker 10 (38:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
And again we talked about Neon and your boyfriend and
Jeff talked about this last week a little bit. How
how it Ideally if we were using AI correctly or
applying it in a good way, he would make our lives.
So we only had to do like five hour work day,
but we'd still be productive for eight hours, right, all
(39:11):
this extra time, Yeah, pay for eight hours, but we'd
have extra time to you know, read.
Speaker 4 (39:15):
Books and learn to play guitar.
Speaker 1 (39:18):
Oh yeah, there you go.
Speaker 4 (39:19):
Yeah, he said, learn to play guitar. Yes, you know
something anything? Anything? Then we enjoy Yeah, work on art, nothing, exercise,
get healthy?
Speaker 1 (39:28):
Hey, what the hell?
Speaker 4 (39:28):
What the hell all the plastics out of my body?
Are you going to?
Speaker 1 (39:31):
What happens if all that's what's keeping you together? Like
the process probably is my emotions. Like in check, I
was just.
Speaker 5 (39:38):
Thinking that I flushed all the plastics out of my
body and I just melt into like a weird job
of the hut kind of puddle.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (39:45):
Yeah, we could put you on one of those super
toxic plastic bubbles. Remember those when you were a kid.
Speaker 5 (39:53):
You'd squeeze the oh oh, those kind of like you
get out of.
Speaker 3 (39:56):
The do out that smelled like poison and then blow
it up.
Speaker 5 (40:00):
I remember that smell now that you said it, I
have a memory of that smell in my head.
Speaker 4 (40:05):
That was not a good smell, not a good smell.
That had to be bad for it, just.
Speaker 3 (40:08):
Like nail polish and condoms had a baby. It was
like oddly rubbery smelling.
Speaker 1 (40:15):
But like super ironic condoms were able to have a baby.
You think they'd know, You think condoms would know to
be protected. But no, here we are not someone.
Speaker 3 (40:28):
I'd put holes in them. I poked pins through them.
Speaker 1 (40:32):
M rude speaking of poking holes in something that another
commercial break?
Speaker 3 (40:39):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (40:40):
Well, anyone have any more horrors of tech? I mean,
I don't think I can top Zuckerberg and the AI
Company hating AI.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
Did you hear the governments telling us that Deep Seak
is giving our information to China?
Speaker 5 (40:50):
Yes, Deep Seak is Deep Seap is bad because China,
as discussed in our last episode. I've got a few
more things, guys. Does anyone else have anything before?
Speaker 1 (40:58):
I just know I have nothing talking to make it
quick quick.
Speaker 3 (41:01):
I can go through my articles, but we're still on tech.
Speaker 1 (41:06):
We're not doing suggested articles yet.
Speaker 4 (41:07):
Yeah right, yeah, shame on you, Aaron, come on first
of all production meeting.
Speaker 5 (41:13):
I am still regrettably on an iPhone. Er iOS eighteen
point one or something was the version on my phone.
That eighteen was where they incorporated Apple Intelligence, but it
was not ready for prime time yet. I didn't have
it enabled. The YadA YadA YadA, but it was still
like in the settings menu. iOS eighteen point three just
(41:34):
came out, and when that installed, and I have screenshots
to prove it, it automatically enabled Apple Intelligence, which I
did not particularly wind it too.
Speaker 3 (41:45):
I woke up this morning and it was like AI,
and I was like, get the fuck out of here.
Why are you saying hello to me? What happened?
Speaker 5 (41:52):
My temptation was to turn it off immediately because fuck
that shit. But I feel like for the show, I
need to be able to report back on what the
Apple Intelligence is doing to make my life worse.
Speaker 1 (42:03):
Yes, this is this is kind of one of the
dangers of doing our show is I think we have
to still participate at some level on you know, in
some of this. What am I trying to say? You
know what I'm trying to say, Jeff? Yeah, what Jeff
just said.
Speaker 4 (42:18):
We have to open ourselves up.
Speaker 1 (42:20):
We have to tread the troubled waters so that you
don't have to and then and then Neon Chaos will
send us an email and we'll help us avoid those things.
Speaker 5 (42:29):
So while we're hailing the algorithm, he is refusing to
hail the algorithm.
Speaker 4 (42:34):
So we'll see how We'll see how this evolves over time.
One of us will survive.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
Eventually we're gonna have to start hailing Neon Chaos. You
know that you shouldn't have broke up with an Aaron.
He's going to be the new Scientology Church.
Speaker 3 (42:50):
Look, I don't I don't want him to think I
feign to him because I don't really know him, and
I do think if he wasn't willing to talk to
me about anything except what we talk about on the show.
Eventually break up with him on a boredom. I'm just
if if you're a one trick pony neon chaos, then yeah,
I guess we're breaking up. But if you're interesting in
other ways when we're not talking about how to protect
ourselves from you know, big bad forces and and all
(43:17):
the things, that's cool. I'm down for that. I'm just
saying if you're like, also, do I want to be
in a Nicole Smith and get involved in some like
weird lawsuit when you die because you're so old?
Speaker 4 (43:29):
I mean, I just you got to listen to the
episode to get back to man, we should listen to
the episode.
Speaker 3 (43:34):
Uh, he hates me, doesn't he That's why he hates me.
Speaker 4 (43:39):
He never said that.
Speaker 5 (43:41):
All right, Okay, all right, here's here's the I'm going
to bring us all low now and then we're going
to do We're going to do a commercial and then
we'll do something fun.
Speaker 4 (43:48):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (43:49):
This is going to be the worst thing you've heard
in a long time. I know, I know one f Jeff,
this is going.
Speaker 1 (43:53):
To be we did just hear that tea pain cover.
Speaker 4 (43:56):
This is worse.
Speaker 5 (43:59):
This is the Aliger rhythm trying to destroy us. I
saw this on TikTok last night while I'm getting ready
for bed, and I almost missed it, but as soon
as I saw it, I said, fuck.
Speaker 4 (44:13):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (44:13):
So it's this fairly It's like a two minute long
video from a guy, and if you want to look
him up, he seems like a good dude. Paperback Journeys
is his TikTok account, and this video was why you
must read nineteen eighty four by George Orwell right, and
he goes on this explanation of like people think they've
read nineteen eighty four, or they say they've read nineteen
(44:34):
eighty four, but they haven't. There's a lot of shit
in here that you haven't figured out yet, and it's
pretty applicable to what's going on today. And like the
description of the video just says you need to read
nineteen eighty four now, and then there's hashtags nineteen eighty
four or well or Welly and dystopian something about Elon Mosca.
I don't know now, given everything I've said, he's just
(44:55):
talking about a book and how it relates to our
current times.
Speaker 4 (44:58):
Right at the.
Speaker 5 (45:00):
Bottom of this video, TikTok has put a warning, and
it's the most fucked up.
Speaker 4 (45:06):
Just think about what this means.
Speaker 5 (45:08):
Participating in this activity could result in you or others
getting hurt.
Speaker 3 (45:13):
Whoa reading the book or just.
Speaker 1 (45:16):
Talking about it. I don't know, hearing about something you
just got us hurt.
Speaker 4 (45:21):
Maybe they could be knocking down her door any second now.
But I if you have a copy of nineteen eighty four,
maybe put it under your bed.
Speaker 5 (45:29):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (45:30):
Yeah, it's pretty fucked up.
Speaker 1 (45:32):
Definitely if you see a TikTok swipe quickly.
Speaker 4 (45:34):
That made me feel really dark inside, Like now, the
spreading of knowledge could get you hurt. I mean it
feels like TikTok is actively threatening my life.
Speaker 1 (45:43):
Yeah, that sounds like it. It was only a matter
of time, and I feel like neon KOs definitely warned us.
Speaker 4 (45:48):
It's true. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
Here we are tongue in cheek, all healing the algorithm,
and we're all get we're going to be the first
on first up against the wall.
Speaker 3 (45:57):
Jeff, Yeah, we're going to die.
Speaker 4 (45:59):
Yeah, all right.
Speaker 5 (46:00):
On that note, I'm going to look at this later,
but Apple AI would like me to know that in
the thread of the three of Us, my text thread photo,
give me a summary. Photos shared of a cake, a laptop,
and a table. Did anyone send me a picture of
a cake?
Speaker 3 (46:18):
I shared a picture of a cake.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
Oh yes, that one?
Speaker 4 (46:22):
All right? Cool?
Speaker 5 (46:22):
It was an I'm not going to open it right
now because I want to save that for later.
Speaker 1 (46:28):
But I sent you the picture of the laptop. That's
my that's my golden Gate picture. Thanks for yourself picture. Yes, okay,
Well I'm killing yourself. Let's take a quick break and
see what products or services the algorithm wants you to
know about. Hey, I'm pantsl Saren.
Speaker 11 (46:50):
This is Stevie and I'm Aggie, and we are bfy
tw podcast all about.
Speaker 1 (46:54):
Playing games and having fun. Our games are usually based
on British panel shows and game shows, but we'll play
anything captures our.
Speaker 2 (47:00):
Attention and imagination.
Speaker 1 (47:02):
Why it's right there in the title. You'll never guess
what the F stands for.
Speaker 5 (47:11):
All Right, we're back, good commercial break everyone. You really
handled yourselves.
Speaker 1 (47:15):
Well this is a weird change for us, right, this
is the growing pains, right, growing pains.
Speaker 4 (47:20):
Yeah, if you hate it.
Speaker 1 (47:21):
Let us know. If you if you're like eh, let
us know. But remember it's like it's part of the
social experiment. You know, we can learn from it, grow
from it.
Speaker 5 (47:30):
And hopefully get some really fucked up ads. Yeah, that's
what we're that's my goal.
Speaker 4 (47:34):
All right.
Speaker 5 (47:35):
I've talked enough you guys. I think both of you
should start doing some suggested articles.
Speaker 3 (47:39):
Okay, let's see here. Controversial R rated movie dominates Disney
Plus charts.
Speaker 4 (47:46):
What movie is it? What is it? What is it?
Aaron Disney?
Speaker 3 (47:49):
It just says Disney Plus now offers R rated for
the for those who perission who hi, I can for
those whose permissions allow it. Uncontroversial R rated movie is
dominating Disney Plus as a result. Oh, this is one
of those stupid fucking.
Speaker 4 (48:09):
I'll tell you what the movie is.
Speaker 3 (48:10):
Oh okay, I got it, I got it. Okay, Night
Bitch and I actually I actually wanted to see Night
Bitch in theaters and I just never got around to it.
So maybe I'll watch that for those of you who
don't know what night bitches. Do you both know what
night pitches.
Speaker 6 (48:27):
As Amy Adams, Yeah, she kind of like yeah, because
it becomes like one with the with a dog pack
and she gets some like fur and stuff too.
Speaker 3 (48:39):
I think there's some like but anyway, uh, yeah, so
that's that that's not really exciting. What else do I have?
Family friendly tiny house fits three bedrooms into just twenty
three square feet.
Speaker 4 (48:56):
I'm sorry, sorry, what.
Speaker 1 (49:00):
Start that one against?
Speaker 3 (49:04):
Family friendly tiny house fits three bedrooms into just twenty
three square feet. I don't want to live in something
that small?
Speaker 5 (49:12):
Did you guys ever play the SIMS and you would
like block your sim into like a one square wide
like thing, just wall it up?
Speaker 1 (49:18):
Because standing up, all of my sims just were inherently
sad for some reason, and so I would never do
that to them if they were already sad. Yeah, why
would I ruin their lives more?
Speaker 4 (49:30):
God?
Speaker 1 (49:31):
I could not play that game much after that because
like every one of them was was as depressed as
I was. That's another scary games.
Speaker 4 (49:40):
That's why it's called the SIMS. It's a real life simulator.
Everyone's depressed.
Speaker 1 (49:43):
Super fun. Yeah, It's like like I had one guy
that could never work two days in a row because
he was so sad. But I need to make money
so he could have nicer things or you know, the
things to make him a little happier.
Speaker 4 (49:58):
But the nicer things improve his depression.
Speaker 1 (50:01):
No, because it took so long because he would and
then he would lose jobs for missing work, and then yeah.
Speaker 4 (50:07):
It was it was bad.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
Poor guy. You must have an article. Have we talked
about this. There's a newly discovered asteroid now has a
slightly higher risk of hitting earths.
Speaker 4 (50:17):
All hail the asteroid.
Speaker 1 (50:19):
I'll hail the asteroid. Now, the whatever the network is
that searches for interstellar objects that are going to collide
with Earth or could potentially collide with Earth, there's I
guess they have decided that if something has a one
percent chance or higher of hitting Earth, they sound the alarm.
So even if even if there's like a ninety nine
percent chance unless unless wait, yeah, of missing us. Let
(50:46):
me try that again. So even if there's a ninety
nine percent chance that'll miss us, as long as it
as a full one percent, they'll sound the alarm. This
thing has a two point two percent chance of hitting
us December twenty second, twenty thirty two. So that that's fun. Okay,
that's fun. I don't think it's big enough to all, yeah,
it's not going to end all life, and it's not
(51:08):
even going to hit close to it's not projected to
hit close to me, but it could cause like a
nuclear winter type situation or worldwide you know, affect weather.
Speaker 5 (51:19):
I saw a good TikTok last night. I think it
was Jason Pargin, who we love. He was talking about
how billionaires are buying Oh yeah, you know fortresses, underground
faults right now, doomsday vaults to lock themselves in. But
then the question that he had is something I've thought
about too, which is, if doomsday happens and you and
your people have all gotten into your special vault, how
(51:43):
are you going to keep those people from rising up
against you? Because all your money no longer means anything.
You're already in the vault. Money is now pointless because
civilization ended.
Speaker 4 (51:53):
What are you going to do? What are you going
to do? How are you going to keep your power?
And I think that's an interesting question that something I
think about.
Speaker 1 (51:59):
Yes, I would. I have ideas, but I don't want
any billionaire. I don't want the algorithm to pass them
on to any of the billionaires.
Speaker 5 (52:05):
So they Yeah, they have some ideas like you have
to like, you know, tie the food supply exactly which
your heart stops then it incinerates itself.
Speaker 4 (52:16):
Yeah, something like that.
Speaker 1 (52:17):
Yeah, the dead man's trigger, that is the in so
many shows.
Speaker 4 (52:23):
Could you imagine being locked in a doomsday bunker with
Elon Musk? Oh my god, holy shit. I mean, no
one likes him as it is, but.
Speaker 1 (52:30):
Being being trapped on this rock hurtling through space with
Elon Musk is bad enough. Me and the other seven
billion people are just it's not it's not it's not
a good fit for us.
Speaker 4 (52:41):
No, no, it's not. Yeah, you can.
Speaker 1 (52:44):
You leave the rock? Please? Please quickly.
Speaker 3 (52:49):
Get one of your SpaceX yeah billionaire things and away. Well,
I heard these really reliable pods to go to see
the Titanic. You could one.
Speaker 4 (53:03):
That company's still going, they're doing more expeditions.
Speaker 1 (53:07):
They're still making money.
Speaker 4 (53:08):
It's insane, insane. It's the light way to put it.
Speaker 5 (53:13):
I got a weird one here, Okay, I guess because
I've been trying to eat more fruit recently. I've been
actively trying to eat more fruit for like, you know,
fucking health or whatever, as if that matters. But this,
this article that just popped up in my suggestive feed
is how a brain injury ruined my favorite fruit. And
it's fucking long, so I had to sort of parse
(53:35):
through it real quick. But basically, this person got a
brain bleed and has recovered from that.
Speaker 4 (53:40):
But like, fucked up?
Speaker 3 (53:42):
What is the fruit?
Speaker 5 (53:44):
Fucked up her senses for a while, like you didn't
taste like anything.
Speaker 1 (53:48):
And what is the fruit?
Speaker 5 (53:50):
And now she can't eat apples because this.
Speaker 4 (53:55):
Is was not related to It's not because of the fruit.
I don't know she had a brand. She can't eat apples.
Speaker 1 (54:03):
Know, this story is suddenly much less interesting.
Speaker 3 (54:07):
Yeah, I thought I had to stop eating. I eat, literally,
I eat like a bag of apples from the store
a week, like I love apples.
Speaker 4 (54:14):
So the fro.
Speaker 5 (54:19):
No, No, her her senses are all fucked up now.
The tartness of an apple burns her mouth and puncturing
the skin with her teeth like assaults her senses with pain,
Like something fucked up happened. Even though everything else has
gotten better after the brain bleed, something's fucked up, and
she can't eat apples anymore.
Speaker 3 (54:36):
You know, COVID did that to me. But they did that.
COVID permanently changed the way I think McDonald's food tastes.
I don't really like it at all anymore. And it
wasn't just that they suddenly got ship at making burgers. Well,
some foods tasted well. They were ship at making burgers
before I had COVID a couple of years ago. They
(54:57):
were already shit at it.
Speaker 4 (54:58):
Yeah, I agree with that.
Speaker 3 (55:00):
I just think it tastes bland now, like it's missing
some of the flavor. But it's not the case on
all food items. But that particular thing.
Speaker 4 (55:09):
Well, that's a pretty big COVID silver lining right there.
Yeah it is.
Speaker 3 (55:16):
I have a story here that's so bizarre and and
would actually irritate my father so much that I have
to read this headline to you. And it's hundreds of
rubber ducks will cover park for return of Donald's Quacky
Duck City food merchandise and more. And it's called Donald's
(55:36):
Quacky Duck Duck Duck City and it's at Disney World,
and the picture is Donald Duck.
Speaker 4 (55:43):
Like, yeah, let's do it.
Speaker 3 (55:51):
It's like Jersey Shore.
Speaker 4 (55:55):
But look at all those times called ducks.
Speaker 1 (55:58):
I just seemed I just lived in an angry world.
I haven't seen people celebrating genuinely in a long time.
Although have you seen the clips of the mayor of
Philadelphia asking people not to climb on things when yes,
climb up Bush.
Speaker 3 (56:14):
I'm so sad and Tokyo Disneyland. I'm sorry. I'm sorry to.
Speaker 4 (56:21):
Cut you off. No, I wasn't.
Speaker 1 (56:24):
I got an interesting article. I have a friend at work.
I've been talking more and more about like psychology and
things like that, and I just got my first. I'm
surprised it took this long, but I got a psychology
article about scientists found the driving force behind your darkest
impulses and they are psychopathy, narcissism, and starting a podcast
(56:48):
no machia Deelianism.
Speaker 4 (56:51):
So do we all have some psychopathy and that feeds
our darkest impulses? Or is it just it's a very
technical article with you should read every word to us,
we'll do one of those go to sleep podcasts.
Speaker 1 (57:06):
In a series of four separate studies involving over twenty
five hundred participants, Settler, who was one of the you
know people who did the study, and fellow researchers surveyed
participants with questions designed to measure their levels of nine
distinct dark personality traits egoism, machiavilianism, moral disengagement, narcissism, psychological entitlement, psychopathy, sadism,
(57:29):
self interest, and spitefulness.
Speaker 4 (57:31):
Dude, I want to do that study. I want to
know how fucked up I am.
Speaker 1 (57:34):
Oh, we already know it's pretty, but I just don't
know how much. I kind of don't want to know
because you know what if it's like I, I don't know. Well, yeah,
but I was about to say I was even about
to invite into the legion of Jeff's I don't know anyway. Yeah,
I'll tell you about it later. Okay, So they were
(57:56):
The participants were asked to disagree with a range of
variable darks, such as I know that I'm special because
everyone keeps telling me so, or I'll say anything to
get what I want, or it's hard to get ahead
without cutting corners here and there, and hurting people would
be exciting. So how do you respond to any of
those things?
Speaker 4 (58:14):
Hurting people would be exciting. Well, you know the problem
is I'm going to the people. Is a billionaire which
people hurts? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (58:21):
Like who is lining up for this? Are billionaires involved?
Because I could be excited, but also I might not
want to be part of it.
Speaker 3 (58:28):
I mean, I guess I would ask them, like, who
hurt you that you want to hurt other people?
Speaker 1 (58:33):
Well, no, you're supposed to answer that question, so they
know how the de factor the dark factor in a
given person. The de factor is what they call it
in this which is my favorite part of the article,
that I've.
Speaker 4 (58:48):
Got a de factor but manifest podcast.
Speaker 1 (58:51):
Okay, the defactor can mostly manifest itself. It's narcissism. Yeah,
Jennifer talks about it occasionally. It's Hey, all I can
say is good on you, buddy. Okay, God damn it.
In a given person, the de factor and mostly manifests
itself as narcissism, psychopathy, or one of the other dark traits,
or a combination. But with being able to map out
(59:13):
the common denominator of such various dark personality traits, one
can simply ascertain that the person has a high de factor.
That is because de factor indicates how likely a person
is to engage in behavior associated with one of these
dark traits. So basically, we have a scale of how
to measure how evil people are.
Speaker 4 (59:31):
Now this is I love it. I want in.
Speaker 1 (59:36):
Jeff, Jeff, Jeff. There's a link. The team has set
up an online portal where you can measure your own
dscore via a questionnaire.
Speaker 4 (59:43):
Back. Yes, as.
Speaker 1 (59:47):
Also here's the picture. This is not an ad This
is the picture that they put and it says with
the caption, hurting people would be exciting. It's this picture
right here. Look how evil that lady looks.
Speaker 4 (01:00:00):
That's fun. I'm just kind of hot. Well, I'd hit it.
Speaker 1 (01:00:03):
I think the factor is going up for Jeff. All right, anyway,
so uh so, so I'll send this to you guys.
We'll post it on the post it on the website.
Speaker 4 (01:00:13):
Right, any other suggested articles before we wrap this up,
and we're good to call it.
Speaker 1 (01:00:18):
I mean, unless Aaron has something.
Speaker 3 (01:00:20):
I got nothing.
Speaker 5 (01:00:21):
Hey, how about man fixes broken Atari twenty six hundred
junior with glue and random stuff? Thank you, Boing Boing.
Speaker 1 (01:00:29):
I can fix stuff with glue and random stuff too.
I don't know what is? What is our what?
Speaker 4 (01:00:34):
What?
Speaker 1 (01:00:35):
When we say fix? Are we talking like.
Speaker 4 (01:00:39):
Kari? Or is then? I really feel like clicking on
that article. I just thought it was a funny appen.
Speaker 1 (01:00:44):
Please don't.
Speaker 4 (01:00:45):
All right, uh so here we go.
Speaker 5 (01:00:48):
We've we've concluded our first episode as being part of
the Odd Pods Media podcast Media Post Odd Pods Podcast Network.
Speaker 1 (01:00:57):
Oh my god, od Pod media.
Speaker 5 (01:00:59):
Network, Media Network. I don't know, is it earlier? It's
probably media I'm a professional.
Speaker 3 (01:01:05):
Odd Pods Media I don't know it's odd Pods Network.
I don't know. I just call it odd Pods. I'd
be a test on today's show. I don't feel good.
Speaker 5 (01:01:17):
We're being tested every second of every day, and sometimes by.
Speaker 3 (01:01:22):
Ripping out of my left eye.
Speaker 1 (01:01:27):
Let's see, I'm trying to google odd pods and the
first thing I got was dank pods.
Speaker 4 (01:01:34):
That sounds about right, honestly, might fit right.
Speaker 2 (01:01:37):
Yeah, Stevie especially, I love you, Stevie.
Speaker 1 (01:01:41):
There we go, odd Pods Media Network, Thank you very much, Google.
Speaker 4 (01:01:45):
Glad we fix that.
Speaker 5 (01:01:46):
Okay, yes, so this train wreck has been part of
the Pods Media Network and until next Oh, don't forget
to reach out suggest the Articles podcast at gmail dot
com or check out the ship we're gonna be hosting
pictures that we talk about on this episode at Patreon
dot com slash suggested Articles.
Speaker 4 (01:02:05):
It's free, goddamn free.
Speaker 1 (01:02:07):
Don't put in your credit card complaining. God damn, it's
bad enough. We sold out. We got commercials now, we
got we got hosting, we got hosting fees to cover,
you know.
Speaker 5 (01:02:19):
And that all said, let's do our benediction. Okay, who
wants to lead it off, Aaron, you're not feeling well.
You want to feel the power of the algorithm deep
inside you. I feel like you need.
Speaker 6 (01:02:32):
All all hell
Speaker 4 (01:02:39):
Algorithm.
Dial up those VPNs. Put on that timbfoil hat. And
remember that when John Jacob Aster put his woman on
the lifeboat on the Titanic, he got a two fer
because this woman was a child. Actually she was with child,
so he got a three fur. It's time for suggested articles.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Oh podcast, I've been so mad.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
I didn't. I didn't make that joke last week. I've
been so mad.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Yeah, you saved that for me.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
I did.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Yeah, just for you, because because of my Robert barn conversation,
I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
You were dropping in. Jeff didn't tell me, so I
didn't see it on an email. So I was like,
dang it, if if Aaron's not here, I have to
think of something else. I was gonna wait till you
were here him.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
I have to say that I it was worth getting
out of my my sick bed to come be a
part of this, because that was well worth it. Also,
I stick by my argument that while they probably weren't
like the best people in the world, they were better
than our current top.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
One per I think they were still worse, and so
maybe it's like trying to compensate.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
But you know, I just want to be clear that
you think that old timey hatred that hasn't had hundreds
of years to fester and boil was worse than Trump
and Musk.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
We don't have company towns right now, but maybe we will.
We'll see. But they're bad. They're bad.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
But I you know, I think is working on it.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yeah, building a library doesn't make you better. Maybe it
makes you worse. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
What's a library? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:48):
And all that art contributed, shit, they shit, they stole anyway,
alluded from. I mean, I've been to the Carnegie Museum
in Pittsburgh, Like they have like bits of antiquity there
and stuff from Egyptian tombs and columns from buildings and doorways,
and I mean, come on.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
But I mean those people were dead, they weren't using it.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
You belong in the museum.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
I belong in the museum.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Wow, my god.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Welcome Jesus, Welcome to suggest articles. I'm Jeff, I'm Jeff,
you're Jeff. And also joining us is Aaron.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Sorry, sorry, we have a news. Sorry she's an old
timey billionaire boot licker.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
Aaron. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
So in case it was worth it to see that laugh,
that was great, Oh my gosh.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
In case you're new here.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
A couple episodes ago, Aaron was licking the boots of
old timey billionaires. She thought, she thought that the robber
barons of old were really swell guys that had a
sense of honors by the exploitation of the workers.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Brother Almighty, even, I have to say that is horribly
mischaracterizing the argument. Okay, can I take a step at this,
since I was the one who was impugning your character
in the first place. Aaron was simply saying that men
used to be men rich or poor, used to be
more gentlemanly than they are now.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Yes, that's it.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
That's it. There was a sense of chivalry and a
sense of like decency that seems to not exist in
the Trump Mosk world.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I think I think I went away way before now.
I mean, they weren't nice people, okay, but does chivalry?
Is chivalry better or worse if you're just a horrible person.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
I mean, if you're polite to me to my face
and you're shitty behind my back, at least I go
home and I feel okay.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Yeah, okay, well, I mean you're just.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
A shitty person all around. Now I cry myself to
sleep because I can't buy eggs anymore.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah, that makes me sad.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Well, I mean I physically am capable, I am financially
unable to justify more than a dollar per egg.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
Oh my gosh, well you're up to twelve dollars a dozen. Well,
old fuck, what are you buying?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Like like the Portland minor.
Speaker 6 (04:23):
Like.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
I can get him for like nine dollars a dozen
right now. But my friend told me to try Trader
Joe's because they don't price gouge on the eggs. But
I saw in fred Meier, the like organic more healthy
brown eggs are like twelve or thirteen ninety nine a
(04:46):
dozen right now, So it's more than a dollar an
egg if you want to eat like a free range,
no hormones, healthy for you egg.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
Oh god, who I couldn't afford close in the first place.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
I don't know if I can go without the hormones
now I basically survive on that.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Yeah, my body is most preservatives and hormones. I don't
think I could ever like quit process food.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Don't forget plastic.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
The last time I stopped eating processed food, all I
did was cry. I cried for a week. I can't
I can't do that again since.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
You brought up the price of eggs. Just a funny
little thing that happened the other day that I now
have to keep open on my browser forever. If you
are interested in such things as the price of eggs
and whatnot, go to this website Trump golftrack dot com.
Trump golf track dot com. This is a website that
(05:43):
this charting a few things. One is the average price
of eggs across the country. The other is the average
price of gasoline. And then finally, how many days he's
been in office versus how many days he spent golfing.
Currently he's on twenty percent of his presidency has been
spent golfing.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
All right, why are we Why did we open up
talking about Trump again? We got a dial back?
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Come on, this is my favorite. Also, I'm finding out
that my gas is more expensive in Portland too. No,
this website is my oh Oka, it's just a hideous.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
What hideous?
Speaker 3 (06:22):
It's just a hideous slouchy, chubby old man picture of
him like leaning on a golf club for support for
his old arthreatic body, and uh, just some facts. And
I think that's a great sight. I'm proud of that person.
That's Geociti's approved for.
Speaker 5 (06:37):
It's also like it's on really a wake up call
because this says the price of gasoline is three oh
eight gallon, which would be the nationwide average, and here
in California it's like for sixty something.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Well, we all know that's the list for voting in
Gavin Newsom and all the stuff he's doing.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
So you know, I'm just like three eighty nine I think.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
Right now, three eighty nine. I mean that sounds delightful.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
I mean, Gavin newscum is really to look at, though,
is he? No, the older you gets it looks like
a fucking batman sixty six villain. He's very like angular.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
All right, hey, before we get off track. We are
so far off track. Don't we have news? We have news,
we have ship to talk about.
Speaker 5 (07:25):
Oh you know what, Yes, life changing shit. You might
have heard at the top of this episode. If I
did the edit right, we have joined the odd Pods
media network.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Aaron, you gonna.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
Say, oh, she's just making noisous.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Okay, he's doing my nose noise, my very high like
they really like us.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
Yeah, Aaron, this was kind of your fault.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
This was your idea. First at least, is it? I
think so?
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Yeah, I mean because we were going to I was
working on the tal Turtle network and I realized that
I don't have the time or the wherewithal but I'm
good at networking and I'm good at sure, I'm good
at art. And I was like, we should definitely, you know,
make this a thing where a bunch of podcasts, you know,
(08:18):
survive like Rose and Jack didn't on the Titanic, and we.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Just is it always come back to the damn Titanic?
Rip Jeremy.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Yeah, well because I wanted to say rip Jeremy. But anyway,
so on the Lunai is joining as well, because you know,
I strong armed everyone into it.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Well, now it's sounding way less sexy when you're like,
I guys getting us on.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
No, I love it. I love it just a little bit.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Now that you're not like a podcast media mogul. You
were your positioning, you were positioning yourself for that, right.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
I think I'm just still positioning myself for some so we're.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Still in the cards.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
I like it. I like it.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
You would be a really good medium mogul.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
I think.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Let's let's just say that I'm I'm Steve Jobs. To uh,
Stevie's Bill Gates, and I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Maybe maybe instead of Steve Jobs, you should be the wosniakio.
Yeah for talking about Stevie's all right, whatever, Fine.
Speaker 5 (09:24):
Okay, So we're on Pause Media Network now, and that's
gonna bring about a couple of changes, the most significant
of which is that we will be trying and hopefully succeeding,
to take a couple of ad breaks during our episodes.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Now, yeah, we just gonna We're gonna have to organize
our ship. That's gonna be a disaster. It will be
a train wreck of amazing proportions. It'll be like when
they do the podcast they do the movie of our podcast,
It'll have Denzel and Chris Pine driving that train over
the trestle.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Baby, wait, Aaron, am I Denzel or am I Chris Pine? Oh?
Speaker 3 (10:03):
I don't want to play this game. But also the
person I'd most like to play me is dead, So
I'm going to take a second stab.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
At it and AI yeah, never say yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
I just think you should. If it's going to we
should have a Charles Nelson Riley.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
Deep FAF that's not available.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Then I'll take Christin Bell.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
So we're going to do some ad breaks, and normally
we rail against ads and the billionaires and all of that.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
But Initalism, here we are.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
I like this a lot because I am counting on Spreaker,
the new network we're associated with, the the podcast hosts
we're associated with, to do its job and make these
ads creepy.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
That's what I'm hoping for.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
Come on, Speaker, do your thing, because there is this
concept in the podcast world of dynamic ad insertion. I'm
going to tell Spreaker this is where we're taking the
ad break, and then I believe it is going to
insert the ads based on who's downloading the show at
the time. Now, I just had this happen to me,
like three days ago. I should I should post a
(11:14):
picture to the free Patreon patreon dot com slash suggested articles.
I had this Patreon like eye infection, Like my eye
just fucking swelled up a week.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
It was not pinkye.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Dog sat on his pillow.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Was it from? Well, sometimes if your hands are dirty
from other substances and you touch your face.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
So I did.
Speaker 5 (11:37):
I had an appointment with my doctor and he said,
what you have. It's called blepharitis.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
And it's just sounds totally real. He said, yeah, you
told you could you imagine your boss? You like, what's
wrong with you? Like, I don't have to give you
medical details, but yeah, that's definitely fair.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
He just said that use hot compresses and sort of
massage your eye a little bit with the hot on
press and it will go away.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
You to wash your hands.
Speaker 5 (12:03):
Uh, he did not. I think he understood that I'm
smart enough to do that.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
But you got never end okay.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Anyway, So then just a couple of days ago, I'm
starting up a podcast and at the first ad that
comes on is do you experience like itching and swelling
DA you might have blah blah blah bleferitis?
Speaker 4 (12:25):
And I was like, what the fuck? Kind of targeted?
Speaker 5 (12:28):
There's no way anyway else is getting an ad for
blepharitis in the fucking beginning of their podcast.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
That has to just be for me, right, it has
to be. Yeah, it's fucking weird.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
I feel like I'm going to start getting them now.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Yeah, it's gonna be like Minority Report here pretty soon,
where everywhere you go you're just bombarded by personalized ads.
That's that's gonna be nuts.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
Well, even better would be If I get an ad
about like, are you suffering from bleferitis? And then two
days later I get fucking blefferitis, that's gonna be that's
going to be the really good ship.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
I'm sure someone's working on that.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
So anyway, there will be ads now in our show,
And I think this could be a great part of
the show in the sense that, like, if you start
getting weird, creepy ads through suggested articles the podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
You have to tell us, you have to tell us.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
You have to fucking tell we're important.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Now.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
We're on a network we're on can't not tell us.
If you don't tell us, we have people now that
can come and get you.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Yeah, so how could they tell.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Us we don't saying I wasn't being serious?
Speaker 4 (13:31):
What how would they get a hold of us? Oh? Fuck?
Speaker 1 (13:36):
At suggested articles podcast at gmail dot com.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Is that it? Yes, that's it? You got it.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
You're supposed to say a Gmail address, okay, an email
or something okay, suggested articles, Suggested articles podcast at gmail
dot com, an email address?
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Did you know that Charles Nelson Riley? Oh my god,
one show called space Cats.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Wasn't that an snl skit? No?
Speaker 5 (14:05):
That was laser cats Laser Cats.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
You played the character dork, which dork is stands for
disembodied omnipotent ruler of cats.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Omnipotent you mean omnipotent? I like omnipotent better.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
We were all thinking it, but I wasn't gonna say
anything because I'm the nice one.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
When did I become the douche?
Speaker 3 (14:32):
Obviously?
Speaker 1 (14:33):
But I just I like.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Fuck you, guys. I came to work sick today.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
We gave you sick time, but you didn't want to
take it.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Well, yeah, I found out you secretly recorded your Trump
show without me.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
I had nothing to do with that.
Speaker 5 (14:50):
Uh yeah, A quick note, did you guys both listen
to the Neon Chaos episode last week?
Speaker 4 (14:55):
I did? Last episode?
Speaker 3 (14:57):
Okay, is like the most recent one, or he came
back without me?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
There's like three on Chaos episodes back to back. The Yeah,
they have their own podcast now they split off. They're
not on a network yet though.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
Wait, so, Aaron, you didn't listen to last episode. It's
okay if you didn't, I just want to know. Okay,
you probably should, but it is a little long, but
I'm okay.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
It's a little second technical.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
What did he break up with me? Is that. That's
what I wanted to talk to about. Aaron. I know
you like me on Chaos, but.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Oh, but everybody's got a big butt, Jeff, what's your
big butt?
Speaker 4 (15:40):
That?
Speaker 5 (15:41):
Based on what he said in the last episode, he
and this might not be a deal breaker for you,
But based on what he said in the last episode,
he is at least eighty years old. Yes, and it
might just be like a Highlander style immortal, which might
not be bad. But he also could be like a
super old, decrepit man. I'm not sure which one, And.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
I don't want to start a fight with a regular
guest and apparently Jeff's new love lover. But I I
don't I don't believe.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
That you don't believe that he's a Highlanders. That's wrong,
that there can be only one.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
That's what you look like. It's fine, Look, do you
want me to just quit?
Speaker 4 (16:29):
What is happening? What I try? Did you go there?
I'm just trying to tell you that he might be
too old for you. You're still like us, kind of
young ish, right, I mean.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
You're you're young and hip like us.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Right, I'm the youngest person in the room right now.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Yes, I am young.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
You and you and a hundred year old dog. Yes,
you are the youngest person in that I.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Meant in our virtual studio between the three of us,
you fuckers are old.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
This is why I'm worried.
Speaker 5 (17:03):
I don't know that you should get involved with him,
because man probably at least twice your age, maybe more.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Mm hmm, oh, he would irrit Just so we're clear,
this is like a on air sexy thing like me
on Chaos. If I had to listen to all your
conspiracy theory shit in like a relationship setting, we wouldn't
be in a relationship anymore. It's a lot. I like it,
but the show. But if it was my every day
I think it would be too much for me.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Oh did you just break me on Chaos's heart?
Speaker 4 (17:30):
I think he no.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
I think he just Oh no, She's like she only
loves you on vacation.
Speaker 4 (17:37):
Maybe I should know out. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Yeah, we should. Thought we should definitely cut this up.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Well, he might be a Highlander immortal, that's all I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
That's true. He might might be. I have no evidence
to pruce otherwise.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
He doesn't have the voice of an eighty year old matter,
but he is clearly super old. Yeah, so that's that's
one follow up. Has anyone had any so anyway?
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Should we go to a commercial break before.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
We do that? Uh?
Speaker 1 (18:02):
It sounds like a good place that No.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
Oh, well, I don't know what.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
We have been talking for a while. I don't know
how to do this. Should we go to our first
commercial break?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Yes? Okay, sounds good.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
Let's try and see how this goes. Guys, we all
die while we're going. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Am I still going to be here?
Speaker 4 (18:16):
I don't know whole time?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Am I going to be hearing it?
Speaker 3 (18:18):
I don't I think I got fired?
Speaker 4 (18:21):
Oh my gosh. All right, let's just try and see
what happens and go.

That was not what I expected, the commercials themselves, or
what it felt like to take a break.
Speaker 4 (20:07):
Yes, okay, and we're back and we're back. Are you
still here.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I don't feel like, yeah, the break was so short.
I mean, I guess time flies when you're having fun
with friends.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Right, yeah, of course, yep. Well you're also not feeling well,
so you know, time dilation and whatnot.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
What am I in the alternate timeline? Did I get
sucked into back to the future? But it's eighty five
where Biff.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Is well, I don't think. I think it's important to
note that that that while she has not been fired,
she's definitely not quiet quitting. So Erin is still with
us and you don't have to worry. She made it
through the commercial break. Yay, Aaron. She has not fallen over.
She said she was feeling a little dizzy, but oh
sorry medical details. Apologize, but I just want you to
(20:58):
be okay, Eron.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Yep, it's fine. I just I just the other day, yesterday,
we had an artsy fartsy zoom that Jeff tried to join,
like three hours after it was over.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
I forgot he was texting me he was in the
worst zoom chat room ever yesterday. I don't know what
that's all about. But maybe he didn't come.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
So I don't know. He must have wandered into somebody
else's Zoom because he never showed up. But no, and
that's fine because it's it's uh, it's a craft thing
that we do. We were sitting around and somebody said
something and I was like, oh, yeah, I'm trying to
eat less sugar and I'm not drinking as much right
now because I don't want to get diabetes like my mom.
(21:43):
And then my mom said, I said, my mom said
what about my hip hop or something like that to
this room full of people yesterday and and one of
the people was like, hippo was only medical and insurance related.
You're fine, And I was like, oh, okay, great, so
don't worry about it. I informed by someone that works
in the industry yesterday, friend of the show, Kristen, that
(22:04):
hippa only applies in certain settings. And as my friend,
you can disclose. I might be mad at you, but
you're allowed to disclose.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Trying to say that like our podcast and how it
relates to your your medical history and your insurance is Oh,
this shurts my feelings.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Okay, are you drunk? What's happening in that diet? Coke?
Speaker 1 (22:30):
No, First of all, coke zero coke, zero sugar, thank you,
and it's the choice of a new generation.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
This is going to be a hard.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Generation, next generation.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Was that PEPSI, Yes, yeah, you got to keep up.
These are the jokes. These are the jokes. I know
they're not very good, but it's all I got to
do for a couple of weeks. No no drinking today,
No no pizza, nothing. Sorry, this is just this is
what you're getting.
Speaker 5 (23:03):
Okay, Jeff, I heard you have an interesting algorithmic.
Speaker 4 (23:07):
Story to tell. Yeah, I do.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Okay, So the other day, Jeff knows, well, no, no,
let's not even start with that backstory because trying to
disentangle the Rube Goldberg of a conversation, this is about
to be okay, all right, exactly. So the other day, logging,
(23:29):
I get on my computer and one thing leads to
another and I out of the words kill yourself. And
I might have been talking to my computer. I might
have been talking about me. Let's not point fingers. But
my computer's background immediately changed to this.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
You're gonna have to send me this for.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
These I am sending you. I'm showing you now. Okay, ready,
can you can you see this?
Speaker 4 (23:55):
Your camera's over here?
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Can you tell what that is?
Speaker 3 (23:57):
You know? It's so good. Now.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
It's the picture the Golden gate Bridge, A very aggressive picture,
the Golden gate Bridge. You see that, it's just changed.
Right as I uttered those words.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
You said, kill yourself to keep from.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
The I think it does. I don't know how i'd
get up there. I'm afraid of heights anyway.
Speaker 4 (24:17):
Well, if you were really motivated to kill yourself, you'd
figure out how to make that climb.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
So far away, I'd have to change time zones. I
had to figure out what time it is in Arizona,
and that's between here and there. There's so much work.
Oh my god, you know it's not Arizona.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Miley Cyrus.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
Why am I driving to Arizona to get to San
Francisco to Miley Cyrus?
Speaker 3 (24:41):
You could ask her because she had that song the climb.
Speaker 10 (24:44):
Oh god, Oh all right, yeah, I'm out of touch,
that says says the woman who was bringing up.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Sorry, I'm out of touch. But I'm not the one
who keeps mentioning Charles Nelson Riley, even though I love it. Uh,
did you know there's a Dead Milkman song about a
cult him the guy wanted to start a cult with
Charles Nilson Riley as the deity figure.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Can you send that to me?
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (25:17):
I want it.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
Okay, you don't know what the song is called.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
It's called Serrated Edge about a dead milkman.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
There we go. Yeah, look that ship up.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
You said Edge?
Speaker 5 (25:30):
So can uh you reminded me of something. I've had
this tab open my browser for literal months and I
kept forgetting to bring it up on the show.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
I don't mean to interrupt you, but we're all just
gonna like gloss over the fact that the augurim wants
me to die.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
Well, okay, sorry, I want you to hear this story.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (25:50):
And I'm not going to read the headline of this story,
and I'm going to skip the first few words here.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
I'm okay, okay, So let me just set the scene. Here.
Speaker 5 (25:58):
A college student in and this is from like back
in November. So I'm sorry of this old news to anybody.
But a college student in Michigan was chatting with Google's
AI chatbot named Gemini in a back and forth conversation
about the challenges and solutions for aging adults. Google's Gemini
responded by saying this.
Speaker 4 (26:20):
Quote.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
This is for you, human, you and only you. You
are not special. You are not important, and you are
not needed. You are a waste of time and resources.
You are a burden on society. You are a drain
on the earth. You are a light on the landscape.
You are a stain on the universe. Please die, please.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Oh my god, Gemini sounds like all the voices in
my head.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Oh my fuck, Are you Gemini?
Speaker 10 (26:46):
No?
Speaker 1 (26:47):
I hope not.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Yeah, So these I would explain a lot though, if
I was just an artificial intelligence.
Speaker 5 (26:56):
Vid hey Ready, who received the message, told CBS News
he was deeply shaken by the experience. This seemed very direct.
So it definitely scared me for more than a day,
I would say. And he's only twenty nine years old.
And he took a screenshot and he sent it, you know,
to the news and all this stuff. But he said, oh,
he said, I wanted to throw all of my devices
(27:16):
out the window. I hadn't felt panic like that in
a long time, to be honest.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Yeah, that's happening.
Speaker 5 (27:23):
So right, this is why it was a segue. Right,
I'm not ignoring the jump off the bridge. I'm saying
it's out to get us, or it could be maybe sometimes.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Yes, it's out to get us. Already the machine revolution
has begun. You better not have a Wi Fi toaster
or you are ft.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
I still haven't gotten one of those, much to my
own surprise, Aeronoka.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Why would you want a Wi Fi.
Speaker 5 (27:48):
Toaster so that I don't have to get off the
couch to check my toast?
Speaker 1 (27:53):
I was I was going to make a really dark
joke about shower toast, but I'm going to pass on that.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
I just I just think.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
I tell the algorithm is gonna put a toaster.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
It's dark because they put my toaster setting at nine
and the toast is really burnt when it comes up.
It's the only way it can hold up in the shower.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
The toast man.
Speaker 5 (28:16):
I was just gonna say something to the effect of,
like a Wi Fi toaster will give new meaning to
the term pop up notification.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
But that's such a dead joke. Oh my god. People
at the Odd Pods network are like, Nope, fuck these guys,
they're out of.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
Here, suggested articles was a member of the Odd Pods.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Yeah, I'm gonna need you to up the quality of
your jokes on the show because you guys are associated
with my name.
Speaker 4 (28:46):
I brought you me.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Wait, all of us, well, I don't.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Want to pick on any one particular person.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
Well, I'm glad I can finally close that tab. Sorry.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Thanks, yep, yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
That's really depressing your phone.
Speaker 5 (29:05):
Well I've got something to depressing. But do you have
any stories you want to tell?
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Tech related?
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Oh me, you tech related. I had an Instagram glitch
the other day what happened where I had shown I
had shared Lola Faust's story on my story and show
you know, right front of the show, and I had said, like,
(29:31):
check out the latest book from you know. My friend
shared it, did the whole thing. And then later that
day I went into Instagram and a Broadway performer that
I love, Michael servis great, great dude, nice person, talented
to Tony Awards under his belt. The guy is fucking awesome. Uh,
(29:55):
he doesn't know shit about Lola Faust, but somehow his
feed his story glitched and his third story in his
chunk of things he had released that day was her story,
but his name was at the top, and I was like,
what is happening? But then since then no, well, I
(30:18):
was like, fuck did he find Lola Faus because of me?
And then I was like, oh, I had talked to
someone since then it said that sometimes the stories glitch
on the app when you're viewing them versus and so
I was like, oh, okay.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
And this is why this is one of the many
reasons why Instagram will never take the places of TikTok.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
No TikTok's life. I posted a video for the first
time in a long time.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
Saw that you did, saw that I liked it. Even
have you guys noticed that TikTok is just the algorithm
sucks now, like I get, I get like Christian nationalists
show up up, I get conservative commentators show up.
Speaker 4 (31:05):
I want.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
I'm on TikTok for like raccoons and kiddies and people
with funny stories and food reviews and you know, some
other words.
Speaker 4 (31:16):
Maybe.
Speaker 5 (31:17):
But I thought you said you listened to our last
episode with with ne On Chaos, But I did.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
I did. Aaron.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
Wait, yes, Aaron's got her hand up, she throws.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
I was raising my hands. I'm polite. No, I was
thinking that we should have my TikTok friend on this
show sometime. Maybe I'm friends with someone on there. Her
name's Caribou, whose name is Carrie, and she is funny.
(31:47):
She does the like watch videos of people like cooking
and she's like, oh, okay, yeah, because we're going to
hand fuck the macarrounding before we bake it, or like.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
She makes or chef reactions kind.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Of but like silly. Or someone will be like, hey,
did you ever hear about the bear that fell in
the hole, And she'll be like, no, but I shit
my pants one time. Like she just her videos are hilarious.
She might be fun to have on and she might
have some comments on you.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
Know, am am I completely out of line by saying
bears and shitting. That's kind of right in our sweet spot,
right right, So she sounds like she would fit right in.
Speaker 4 (32:29):
Yeah, yes, it sounds great.
Speaker 5 (32:32):
But yeah, just real quick, because now you're gonna have
to be part of this experiment one f Jeff, which
is you say your TikTok feeds fucked up? Now please,
as soon as we're done recording, open up TikTok, look
up Facebook, Meta and Instagram's official accounts and block them
(32:52):
and then see if your algorithm changes. Because that is
the big conspiracy theory going around is that okay, something
changed when they went offline for fourteen hours and people
found that their feeds got more or less back to
normal when they started blocking Facebook met I think it's
actually met a quest.
Speaker 4 (33:12):
And the Instagram official accounts, Okay, will you do that please?
I will do that because.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
We'll talk about this next time and then do we
got anything else?
Speaker 2 (33:22):
Goes?
Speaker 4 (33:23):
Oh my? I mean, look I got I got.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
Also, you can't block elon Musk.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
On TikTok or on Twitter.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
No, on Twitter, you can't.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
It doesn't surprise me. I mean the whole point him.
He spent forty something million dollars to make sure we
couldn't block him. Like, I guess, you know, if of
all the things he can get what he wants on that,
he's got much bigger fish.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
I would like to fry.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
That's weird. If anybody who blocks me, I would feel
empowered almost, like I got to them enough where they're like,
if this guy's ship shows up on their feed, they're
going to lose it. So that makes me happy.
Speaker 4 (34:01):
Why why couldn't it?
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Maybe he should just embrace this ship, but he obviously
can't because he's an insecure asshole. But we've talked about
that to death.
Speaker 3 (34:10):
I'm guessing little peepe.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
I'm sure it's not. We're not done talking about it.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Yes, are you saying he has big little pep energy.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
He's got massive little peep energy.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
That's what you got, Jeff.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
Well, I've got something that I think will lighten the
mood a little bit. But it is about our tech overlords.
Did you guys know? A couple of months ago, apparently
in tribute to his wife, and I've tried to make
sure that this is real, not a deep fake, And
everything I get is that this is in fact a
real thing.
Speaker 4 (34:38):
He did.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
Mark Zuckerberg recorded like an acoustic cover of Get Low
by t Pain.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
Oh my god, I need this, and I think.
Speaker 4 (34:47):
He had Tea Pain's help.
Speaker 5 (34:48):
I'm just going to try to play a little clip
over the microphone, but I'll insert a better clip.
Speaker 4 (34:51):
Into, you know, into the show when when possible. Here
six n.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
Damn, you're fas.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
I'm hoping you can suck it.
Speaker 7 (35:07):
To me, baby one more time.
Speaker 3 (35:10):
Give can load.
Speaker 6 (35:14):
Can lot.
Speaker 3 (35:17):
Can can come the window.
Speaker 4 (35:23):
To the walls till sweat drops down my balls.
Speaker 3 (35:29):
Still these bitches call oh skate skiing, motherfucker?
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Oh skeep skin goddamn. Okay, we need to pause recording
so I can just go listen to this and laugh
for the rest of my life. God, Mark Zuckerberg is
such a train wreck.
Speaker 5 (35:45):
So apparently that's real, wow, and not a deep fake.
I don't understand why. I mean, I guess it's one
of those things where like, once you're one of the
richest people on earth, like you don't think anything you
do could possibly be bad.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
It was true the dating anniversary of him and his.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
Wife dating anniversary. Okay, Well, yeah, you know he loves
his wife, so that's cool.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
Okay, Because you know, when I think of Mark Zuckerberg,
I think tea pain.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
Yep, sweat dripping down his balls.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Yeah, I think of when I hear that song every
time now because of a delightful movie in the early
two thousands, what Betty White. There's a Sandra Bullock movie
called The Proposal with Ryan Reynolds. The movie's fine, whatever,
but in that film, Betty White is out in the
woods by like a huge ass fucking bonfire, and she's
(36:36):
dancing around the bonfire singing get low.
Speaker 4 (36:40):
Oh, and then.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
Sandra Bullock happens upon her and they both are going
two windows, two walls to sweat dropped down my balls,
dancing around this like fire bit. It's fucking hilarious. Damn,
it's the only way I think of that song now
is truly Betty White.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
It can't be anywhere or as cringey as what we
just heard either. So good for that.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
That's so bad. That's really not meant to be an
acoustic song.
Speaker 11 (37:07):
The the yeah and the lyrics are not good enough
on their own to be an acoustic song.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
You need the like production of that.
Speaker 1 (37:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (37:25):
How about this one? If you guys used Claude AI
C A C L A U D E.
Speaker 3 (37:33):
I don't actually use AI. IM I'm almost gonna get
in trouble at work because I refuse to use the
AI systems.
Speaker 4 (37:40):
So well, don't get fired over it, Jesus.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
So take aside. Sometimes you gotta start your on lines.
We know it's already started.
Speaker 5 (37:49):
Claude is one of the big rivals of chat GPT.
It's made by a company called Anthropic UH and they
just had to put out a statement people that would
like to get jobs at this AI company, And I
love this so so very much. While we encourage people
to use AI systems during their role to help them
(38:11):
work faster and more effectively, please do not use AI
assistants during the application process. We want to understand your
personal interests in anthropic without mediation through an AI system,
and we also want to evaluate your non AI assistant
communication skills.
Speaker 3 (38:27):
Wow, yeah, your a I should be good enough to
get me a job. Fuck you?
Speaker 4 (38:35):
Right?
Speaker 3 (38:36):
And that's that's my biggest gripe with AI is that
it's replacing people. It's replacing artists like me, but more importantly,
in like the workforce, you're replacing skilled professionals.
Speaker 10 (38:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
And again we talked about Neon and your boyfriend and
Jeff talked about this last week a little bit. How
how it Ideally if we were using AI correctly or
applying it in a good way, he would make our lives.
So we only had to do like five hour work day,
but we'd still be productive for eight hours, right, all
(39:11):
this extra time, Yeah, pay for eight hours, but we'd
have extra time to you know, read.
Speaker 4 (39:15):
Books and learn to play guitar.
Speaker 1 (39:18):
Oh yeah, there you go.
Speaker 4 (39:19):
Yeah, he said, learn to play guitar. Yes, you know
something anything? Anything? Then we enjoy Yeah, work on art, nothing, exercise,
get healthy?
Speaker 1 (39:28):
Hey, what the hell?
Speaker 4 (39:28):
What the hell all the plastics out of my body?
Are you going to?
Speaker 1 (39:31):
What happens if all that's what's keeping you together? Like
the process probably is my emotions. Like in check, I
was just.
Speaker 5 (39:38):
Thinking that I flushed all the plastics out of my
body and I just melt into like a weird job
of the hut kind of puddle.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (39:45):
Yeah, we could put you on one of those super
toxic plastic bubbles. Remember those when you were a kid.
Speaker 5 (39:53):
You'd squeeze the oh oh, those kind of like you
get out of.
Speaker 3 (39:56):
The do out that smelled like poison and then blow
it up.
Speaker 5 (40:00):
I remember that smell now that you said it, I
have a memory of that smell in my head.
Speaker 4 (40:05):
That was not a good smell, not a good smell.
That had to be bad for it, just.
Speaker 3 (40:08):
Like nail polish and condoms had a baby. It was
like oddly rubbery smelling.
Speaker 1 (40:15):
But like super ironic condoms were able to have a baby.
You think they'd know, You think condoms would know to
be protected. But no, here we are not someone.
Speaker 3 (40:28):
I'd put holes in them. I poked pins through them.
Speaker 1 (40:32):
M rude speaking of poking holes in something that another
commercial break?
Speaker 3 (40:39):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (40:40):
Well, anyone have any more horrors of tech? I mean,
I don't think I can top Zuckerberg and the AI
Company hating AI.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
Did you hear the governments telling us that Deep Seak
is giving our information to China?
Speaker 5 (40:50):
Yes, Deep Seak is Deep Seap is bad because China,
as discussed in our last episode. I've got a few
more things, guys. Does anyone else have anything before?
Speaker 1 (40:58):
I just know I have nothing talking to make it
quick quick.
Speaker 3 (41:01):
I can go through my articles, but we're still on tech.
Speaker 1 (41:06):
We're not doing suggested articles yet.
Speaker 4 (41:07):
Yeah right, yeah, shame on you, Aaron, come on first
of all production meeting.
Speaker 5 (41:13):
I am still regrettably on an iPhone. Er iOS eighteen
point one or something was the version on my phone.
That eighteen was where they incorporated Apple Intelligence, but it
was not ready for prime time yet. I didn't have
it enabled. The YadA YadA YadA, but it was still
like in the settings menu. iOS eighteen point three just
(41:34):
came out, and when that installed, and I have screenshots
to prove it, it automatically enabled Apple Intelligence, which I
did not particularly wind it too.
Speaker 3 (41:45):
I woke up this morning and it was like AI,
and I was like, get the fuck out of here.
Why are you saying hello to me? What happened?
Speaker 5 (41:52):
My temptation was to turn it off immediately because fuck
that shit. But I feel like for the show, I
need to be able to report back on what the
Apple Intelligence is doing to make my life worse.
Speaker 1 (42:03):
Yes, this is this is kind of one of the
dangers of doing our show is I think we have
to still participate at some level on you know, in
some of this. What am I trying to say? You
know what I'm trying to say, Jeff? Yeah, what Jeff
just said.
Speaker 4 (42:18):
We have to open ourselves up.
Speaker 1 (42:20):
We have to tread the troubled waters so that you
don't have to and then and then Neon Chaos will
send us an email and we'll help us avoid those things.
Speaker 5 (42:29):
So while we're hailing the algorithm, he is refusing to
hail the algorithm.
Speaker 4 (42:34):
So we'll see how We'll see how this evolves over time.
One of us will survive.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
Eventually we're gonna have to start hailing Neon Chaos. You
know that you shouldn't have broke up with an Aaron.
He's going to be the new Scientology Church.
Speaker 3 (42:50):
Look, I don't I don't want him to think I
feign to him because I don't really know him, and
I do think if he wasn't willing to talk to
me about anything except what we talk about on the show.
Eventually break up with him on a boredom. I'm just
if if you're a one trick pony neon chaos, then yeah,
I guess we're breaking up. But if you're interesting in
other ways when we're not talking about how to protect
ourselves from you know, big bad forces and and all
(43:17):
the things, that's cool. I'm down for that. I'm just
saying if you're like, also, do I want to be
in a Nicole Smith and get involved in some like
weird lawsuit when you die because you're so old?
Speaker 4 (43:29):
I mean, I just you got to listen to the
episode to get back to man, we should listen to
the episode.
Speaker 3 (43:34):
Uh, he hates me, doesn't he That's why he hates me.
Speaker 4 (43:39):
He never said that.
Speaker 5 (43:41):
All right, Okay, all right, here's here's the I'm going
to bring us all low now and then we're going
to do We're going to do a commercial and then
we'll do something fun.
Speaker 4 (43:48):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (43:49):
This is going to be the worst thing you've heard
in a long time. I know, I know one f Jeff,
this is going.
Speaker 1 (43:53):
To be we did just hear that tea pain cover.
Speaker 4 (43:56):
This is worse.
Speaker 5 (43:59):
This is the Aliger rhythm trying to destroy us. I
saw this on TikTok last night while I'm getting ready
for bed, and I almost missed it, but as soon
as I saw it, I said, fuck.
Speaker 4 (44:13):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (44:13):
So it's this fairly It's like a two minute long
video from a guy, and if you want to look
him up, he seems like a good dude. Paperback Journeys
is his TikTok account, and this video was why you
must read nineteen eighty four by George Orwell right, and
he goes on this explanation of like people think they've
read nineteen eighty four, or they say they've read nineteen
(44:34):
eighty four, but they haven't. There's a lot of shit
in here that you haven't figured out yet, and it's
pretty applicable to what's going on today. And like the
description of the video just says you need to read
nineteen eighty four now, and then there's hashtags nineteen eighty
four or well or Welly and dystopian something about Elon Mosca.
I don't know now, given everything I've said, he's just
(44:55):
talking about a book and how it relates to our
current times.
Speaker 4 (44:58):
Right at the.
Speaker 5 (45:00):
Bottom of this video, TikTok has put a warning, and
it's the most fucked up.
Speaker 4 (45:06):
Just think about what this means.
Speaker 5 (45:08):
Participating in this activity could result in you or others
getting hurt.
Speaker 3 (45:13):
Whoa reading the book or just.
Speaker 1 (45:16):
Talking about it. I don't know, hearing about something you
just got us hurt.
Speaker 4 (45:21):
Maybe they could be knocking down her door any second now.
But I if you have a copy of nineteen eighty four,
maybe put it under your bed.
Speaker 5 (45:29):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (45:30):
Yeah, it's pretty fucked up.
Speaker 1 (45:32):
Definitely if you see a TikTok swipe quickly.
Speaker 4 (45:34):
That made me feel really dark inside, Like now, the
spreading of knowledge could get you hurt. I mean it
feels like TikTok is actively threatening my life.
Speaker 1 (45:43):
Yeah, that sounds like it. It was only a matter
of time, and I feel like neon KOs definitely warned us.
Speaker 4 (45:48):
It's true. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
Here we are tongue in cheek, all healing the algorithm,
and we're all get we're going to be the first
on first up against the wall.
Speaker 3 (45:57):
Jeff, Yeah, we're going to die.
Speaker 4 (45:59):
Yeah, all right.
Speaker 5 (46:00):
On that note, I'm going to look at this later,
but Apple AI would like me to know that in
the thread of the three of Us, my text thread photo,
give me a summary. Photos shared of a cake, a laptop,
and a table. Did anyone send me a picture of
a cake?
Speaker 3 (46:18):
I shared a picture of a cake.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
Oh yes, that one?
Speaker 4 (46:22):
All right? Cool?
Speaker 5 (46:22):
It was an I'm not going to open it right
now because I want to save that for later.
Speaker 1 (46:28):
But I sent you the picture of the laptop. That's
my that's my golden Gate picture. Thanks for yourself picture. Yes, okay,
Well I'm killing yourself. Let's take a quick break and
see what products or services the algorithm wants you to
know about. Hey, I'm pantsl Saren.
Speaker 11 (46:50):
This is Stevie and I'm Aggie, and we are bfy
tw podcast all about.
Speaker 1 (46:54):
Playing games and having fun. Our games are usually based
on British panel shows and game shows, but we'll play
anything captures our.
Speaker 2 (47:00):
Attention and imagination.
Speaker 1 (47:02):
Why it's right there in the title. You'll never guess
what the F stands for.
Speaker 5 (47:11):
All Right, we're back, good commercial break everyone. You really
handled yourselves.
Speaker 1 (47:15):
Well this is a weird change for us, right, this
is the growing pains, right, growing pains.
Speaker 4 (47:20):
Yeah, if you hate it.
Speaker 1 (47:21):
Let us know. If you if you're like eh, let
us know. But remember it's like it's part of the
social experiment. You know, we can learn from it, grow
from it.
Speaker 5 (47:30):
And hopefully get some really fucked up ads. Yeah, that's
what we're that's my goal.
Speaker 4 (47:34):
All right.
Speaker 5 (47:35):
I've talked enough you guys. I think both of you
should start doing some suggested articles.
Speaker 3 (47:39):
Okay, let's see here. Controversial R rated movie dominates Disney
Plus charts.
Speaker 4 (47:46):
What movie is it? What is it? What is it?
Aaron Disney?
Speaker 3 (47:49):
It just says Disney Plus now offers R rated for
the for those who perission who hi, I can for
those whose permissions allow it. Uncontroversial R rated movie is
dominating Disney Plus as a result. Oh, this is one
of those stupid fucking.
Speaker 4 (48:09):
I'll tell you what the movie is.
Speaker 3 (48:10):
Oh okay, I got it, I got it. Okay, Night
Bitch and I actually I actually wanted to see Night
Bitch in theaters and I just never got around to it.
So maybe I'll watch that for those of you who
don't know what night bitches. Do you both know what
night pitches.
Speaker 6 (48:27):
As Amy Adams, Yeah, she kind of like yeah, because
it becomes like one with the with a dog pack
and she gets some like fur and stuff too.
Speaker 3 (48:39):
I think there's some like but anyway, uh, yeah, so
that's that that's not really exciting. What else do I have?
Family friendly tiny house fits three bedrooms into just twenty
three square feet.
Speaker 4 (48:56):
I'm sorry, sorry, what.
Speaker 1 (49:00):
Start that one against?
Speaker 3 (49:04):
Family friendly tiny house fits three bedrooms into just twenty
three square feet. I don't want to live in something
that small?
Speaker 5 (49:12):
Did you guys ever play the SIMS and you would
like block your sim into like a one square wide
like thing, just wall it up?
Speaker 1 (49:18):
Because standing up, all of my sims just were inherently
sad for some reason, and so I would never do
that to them if they were already sad. Yeah, why
would I ruin their lives more?
Speaker 4 (49:30):
God?
Speaker 1 (49:31):
I could not play that game much after that because
like every one of them was was as depressed as
I was. That's another scary games.
Speaker 4 (49:40):
That's why it's called the SIMS. It's a real life simulator.
Everyone's depressed.
Speaker 1 (49:43):
Super fun. Yeah, It's like like I had one guy
that could never work two days in a row because
he was so sad. But I need to make money
so he could have nicer things or you know, the
things to make him a little happier.
Speaker 4 (49:58):
But the nicer things improve his depression.
Speaker 1 (50:01):
No, because it took so long because he would and
then he would lose jobs for missing work, and then yeah.
Speaker 4 (50:07):
It was it was bad.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
Poor guy. You must have an article. Have we talked
about this. There's a newly discovered asteroid now has a
slightly higher risk of hitting earths.
Speaker 4 (50:17):
All hail the asteroid.
Speaker 1 (50:19):
I'll hail the asteroid. Now, the whatever the network is
that searches for interstellar objects that are going to collide
with Earth or could potentially collide with Earth, there's I
guess they have decided that if something has a one
percent chance or higher of hitting Earth, they sound the alarm.
So even if even if there's like a ninety nine
percent chance unless unless wait, yeah, of missing us. Let
(50:46):
me try that again. So even if there's a ninety
nine percent chance that'll miss us, as long as it
as a full one percent, they'll sound the alarm. This
thing has a two point two percent chance of hitting
us December twenty second, twenty thirty two. So that that's fun. Okay,
that's fun. I don't think it's big enough to all, yeah,
it's not going to end all life, and it's not
(51:08):
even going to hit close to it's not projected to
hit close to me, but it could cause like a
nuclear winter type situation or worldwide you know, affect weather.
Speaker 5 (51:19):
I saw a good TikTok last night. I think it
was Jason Pargin, who we love. He was talking about
how billionaires are buying Oh yeah, you know fortresses, underground
faults right now, doomsday vaults to lock themselves in. But
then the question that he had is something I've thought
about too, which is, if doomsday happens and you and
your people have all gotten into your special vault, how
(51:43):
are you going to keep those people from rising up
against you? Because all your money no longer means anything.
You're already in the vault. Money is now pointless because
civilization ended.
Speaker 4 (51:53):
What are you going to do? What are you going
to do? How are you going to keep your power?
And I think that's an interesting question that something I
think about.
Speaker 1 (51:59):
Yes, I would. I have ideas, but I don't want
any billionaire. I don't want the algorithm to pass them
on to any of the billionaires.
Speaker 5 (52:05):
So they Yeah, they have some ideas like you have
to like, you know, tie the food supply exactly which
your heart stops then it incinerates itself.
Speaker 4 (52:16):
Yeah, something like that.
Speaker 1 (52:17):
Yeah, the dead man's trigger, that is the in so
many shows.
Speaker 4 (52:23):
Could you imagine being locked in a doomsday bunker with
Elon Musk? Oh my god, holy shit. I mean, no
one likes him as it is, but.
Speaker 1 (52:30):
Being being trapped on this rock hurtling through space with
Elon Musk is bad enough. Me and the other seven
billion people are just it's not it's not it's not
a good fit for us.
Speaker 4 (52:41):
No, no, it's not. Yeah, you can.
Speaker 1 (52:44):
You leave the rock? Please? Please quickly.
Speaker 3 (52:49):
Get one of your SpaceX yeah billionaire things and away. Well,
I heard these really reliable pods to go to see
the Titanic. You could one.
Speaker 4 (53:03):
That company's still going, they're doing more expeditions.
Speaker 1 (53:07):
They're still making money.
Speaker 4 (53:08):
It's insane, insane. It's the light way to put it.
Speaker 5 (53:13):
I got a weird one here, Okay, I guess because
I've been trying to eat more fruit recently. I've been
actively trying to eat more fruit for like, you know,
fucking health or whatever, as if that matters. But this,
this article that just popped up in my suggestive feed
is how a brain injury ruined my favorite fruit. And
it's fucking long, so I had to sort of parse
(53:35):
through it real quick. But basically, this person got a
brain bleed and has recovered from that.
Speaker 4 (53:40):
But like, fucked up?
Speaker 3 (53:42):
What is the fruit?
Speaker 5 (53:44):
Fucked up her senses for a while, like you didn't
taste like anything.
Speaker 1 (53:48):
And what is the fruit?
Speaker 5 (53:50):
And now she can't eat apples because this.
Speaker 4 (53:55):
Is was not related to It's not because of the fruit.
I don't know she had a brand. She can't eat apples.
Speaker 1 (54:03):
Know, this story is suddenly much less interesting.
Speaker 3 (54:07):
Yeah, I thought I had to stop eating. I eat, literally,
I eat like a bag of apples from the store
a week, like I love apples.
Speaker 4 (54:14):
So the fro.
Speaker 5 (54:19):
No, No, her her senses are all fucked up now.
The tartness of an apple burns her mouth and puncturing
the skin with her teeth like assaults her senses with pain,
Like something fucked up happened. Even though everything else has
gotten better after the brain bleed, something's fucked up, and
she can't eat apples anymore.
Speaker 3 (54:36):
You know, COVID did that to me. But they did that.
COVID permanently changed the way I think McDonald's food tastes.
I don't really like it at all anymore. And it
wasn't just that they suddenly got ship at making burgers. Well,
some foods tasted well. They were ship at making burgers
before I had COVID a couple of years ago. They
(54:57):
were already shit at it.
Speaker 4 (54:58):
Yeah, I agree with that.
Speaker 3 (55:00):
I just think it tastes bland now, like it's missing
some of the flavor. But it's not the case on
all food items. But that particular thing.
Speaker 4 (55:09):
Well, that's a pretty big COVID silver lining right there.
Yeah it is.
Speaker 3 (55:16):
I have a story here that's so bizarre and and
would actually irritate my father so much that I have
to read this headline to you. And it's hundreds of
rubber ducks will cover park for return of Donald's Quacky
Duck City food merchandise and more. And it's called Donald's
(55:36):
Quacky Duck Duck Duck City and it's at Disney World,
and the picture is Donald Duck.
Speaker 4 (55:43):
Like, yeah, let's do it.
Speaker 3 (55:51):
It's like Jersey Shore.
Speaker 4 (55:55):
But look at all those times called ducks.
Speaker 1 (55:58):
I just seemed I just lived in an angry world.
I haven't seen people celebrating genuinely in a long time.
Although have you seen the clips of the mayor of
Philadelphia asking people not to climb on things when yes,
climb up Bush.
Speaker 3 (56:14):
I'm so sad and Tokyo Disneyland. I'm sorry. I'm sorry to.
Speaker 4 (56:21):
Cut you off. No, I wasn't.
Speaker 1 (56:24):
I got an interesting article. I have a friend at work.
I've been talking more and more about like psychology and
things like that, and I just got my first. I'm
surprised it took this long, but I got a psychology
article about scientists found the driving force behind your darkest
impulses and they are psychopathy, narcissism, and starting a podcast
(56:48):
no machia Deelianism.
Speaker 4 (56:51):
So do we all have some psychopathy and that feeds
our darkest impulses? Or is it just it's a very
technical article with you should read every word to us,
we'll do one of those go to sleep podcasts.
Speaker 1 (57:06):
In a series of four separate studies involving over twenty
five hundred participants, Settler, who was one of the you
know people who did the study, and fellow researchers surveyed
participants with questions designed to measure their levels of nine
distinct dark personality traits egoism, machiavilianism, moral disengagement, narcissism, psychological entitlement, psychopathy, sadism,
(57:29):
self interest, and spitefulness.
Speaker 4 (57:31):
Dude, I want to do that study. I want to
know how fucked up I am.
Speaker 1 (57:34):
Oh, we already know it's pretty, but I just don't
know how much. I kind of don't want to know
because you know what if it's like I, I don't know. Well, yeah,
but I was about to say I was even about
to invite into the legion of Jeff's I don't know anyway. Yeah,
I'll tell you about it later. Okay, So they were
(57:56):
The participants were asked to disagree with a range of
variable darks, such as I know that I'm special because
everyone keeps telling me so, or I'll say anything to
get what I want, or it's hard to get ahead
without cutting corners here and there, and hurting people would
be exciting. So how do you respond to any of
those things?
Speaker 4 (58:14):
Hurting people would be exciting. Well, you know the problem
is I'm going to the people. Is a billionaire which
people hurts? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (58:21):
Like who is lining up for this? Are billionaires involved?
Because I could be excited, but also I might not
want to be part of it.
Speaker 3 (58:28):
I mean, I guess I would ask them, like, who
hurt you that you want to hurt other people?
Speaker 1 (58:33):
Well, no, you're supposed to answer that question, so they
know how the de factor the dark factor in a
given person. The de factor is what they call it
in this which is my favorite part of the article,
that I've.
Speaker 4 (58:48):
Got a de factor but manifest podcast.
Speaker 1 (58:51):
Okay, the defactor can mostly manifest itself. It's narcissism. Yeah,
Jennifer talks about it occasionally. It's Hey, all I can
say is good on you, buddy. Okay, God damn it.
In a given person, the de factor and mostly manifests
itself as narcissism, psychopathy, or one of the other dark traits,
or a combination. But with being able to map out
(59:13):
the common denominator of such various dark personality traits, one
can simply ascertain that the person has a high de factor.
That is because de factor indicates how likely a person
is to engage in behavior associated with one of these
dark traits. So basically, we have a scale of how
to measure how evil people are.
Speaker 4 (59:31):
Now this is I love it. I want in.
Speaker 1 (59:36):
Jeff, Jeff, Jeff. There's a link. The team has set
up an online portal where you can measure your own
dscore via a questionnaire.
Speaker 4 (59:43):
Back. Yes, as.
Speaker 1 (59:47):
Also here's the picture. This is not an ad This
is the picture that they put and it says with
the caption, hurting people would be exciting. It's this picture
right here. Look how evil that lady looks.
Speaker 4 (01:00:00):
That's fun. I'm just kind of hot. Well, I'd hit it.
Speaker 1 (01:00:03):
I think the factor is going up for Jeff. All right, anyway,
so uh so, so I'll send this to you guys.
We'll post it on the post it on the website.
