What if presidential pardons are less about justice and more about favoritism? Join us as we dissect the controversial use of pardon powers in the U.S., spotlighting President Joe Biden's pardon of his son and contrasting it with Trump's pardons of January 6th rioters. Our resident artist, Asia Nakia, offers her perspective on using creativity for social change, while we navigate the troubled waters of LA Animal Services following a key resignation. The call for compassionate leadership in animal welfare rings loud as we explore how to transform these challenges into solutions.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
We have to talk about it because everybody else is
talking about it and it'sridiculous.
The pardon powers in thiscountry have been abused since
the beginning of this country.
And yeah, yesterday Joe Biden,he pardoned his son.
Nothing compared to Trumpletting out the January 6th
rioters, especially the peoplethat you know did harm to police
(00:24):
officers.
All right, the world may notneed another podcast, but it can
definitely use a slap.
(00:46):
Welcome to Slap the Power, theshow that lifts artists who use
their powers for positiveprogress.
I'm Rick Barrio-Dill and I'mAsia Nakia.
That's right On the show.
Today we touch base with ourresident badass artist who's
using her powers for positiveprogress Asia Nakia, and we're
leading off with Paws forProgress today on our furry
fighters, rachel and Alan, aswell as the general manager of
(01:08):
LA Animal Services stepping down.
So lots of stuff going on there.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Yes, and then we're going to go into Joe Biden and
the fact that he pardoned hisson, hunter Biden, after vowing
not to do the very thing he saidhe just did.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
I know Everybody's got their take on this, and we
do too, but it's still worthtalking about and chopping it up
, because on one level it'sastounding, on the other level
you'd probably do it for yourpeople.
So that's just the place we'reat, and then a little later
we're going to catch up with ourGen Z correspondent, asher
Freidberg, with a new edition ofMake this Ish, make Sense,
(01:45):
asher.
He refused to give us anycontext today.
You know, kind of just like aGen Zer he's like no, I'm not
even going to tell you.
But I'm going to tell you we'regoing to have to make it.
Ish make sense, so stick aroundfor that.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
And then we've got the wonderfully articulated
comments from Elon Musk aboutfighting population decline,
even though he has children thathe doesn't want to claim
anymore.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
And we touch on martial law being enacted for
six hours in South Korea, andnow impeachment proceedings have
begun against the president andwe ponder can we do that here?
Is it possible?
We'll find out.
Asking for a friend?
We'll find out.
Uh, asking for a friend.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
And then, a little later, we've got our, our most
favorite little segment here twoscams and a slap where we take
three batshit crazy events, twoof which are fake and one which
is real, and we have to figureout which one is actually the
truth.
And today I am reading to Rick,and you are going to have to
decide which one is the slap inthe face.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
That's right.
I'm in the hot seat today alongwith you, the listeners.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
But first we're going to talk about some huge news
here in LA.
We just heard that the generalmanager of Los Angeles Animal
Services just resigned yesterday.
This is huge news.
I mean, we've been talkingabout the LA like shelter crisis
, you know, almost in everyepisode because it's just so
(03:11):
hard hitting and devastating.
And now here we.
Here we are again.
We've got a chance.
The mayor is now scouting forthis person that will take over
this job.
I mean, I am I'm like on edge,trying to figure out who is
going to be the next candidate.
Is this person going to make adifference?
I don't know, but I'm going tobe watching this like a hawk.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Is that a gig that you know?
Are there?
What's the list on people thatare actually perfectly suited
for this gig?
I mean.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
the issue with hiring shelter directors and the issue
that animal services is under agovernment body is that they
always go for people within thegovernment because they like
people that know the lingo.
They like people that know howto work in the city environment.
All of those things are great,but we don't need that right now
, like we need someone to comein that has been working in
(04:04):
every aspect of rescue.
We need somebody that isbrilliant on the streets.
We need someone thatunderstands you know how
shelters run and operate.
We need someone thatunderstands the you know spay
and neuter crisis that we have.
We need someone that's reallyin all of these different
pockets, not just someone that'scome up through the government
tiers and needs their nextadministrative job which is what
(04:26):
happens 99% of the time andthat's just not working.
So who would be a good candidate?
Me, you, I would.
You know that is something thatI would love to tackle, but
really it needs to be someonewith a rescue mindset.
It needs to be someone thatunderstands the ordinances, the
(04:49):
laws that are in place, the lawsthat need to change, how we can
best reach out to our communitywith low-cost spay neuter
clinics, um, how we can put anend to the license and intact
licenses.
So there's so much involved init.
But I just I am like fingerscrossed.
Let this be the positive changethat we need to move LA forward
.
I mean, 76,000 animals thisyear have been killed I'm going
(05:15):
to stop saying euthanized,because it sounds pretty and
it's just not and it's notacceptable.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
76,000 nationwide, no 76,000?
In Los.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Angeles, in LA, in LA , 76,000.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Acceptable 76 000 nationwide, no 76 in los angeles
, in la in la 76 000 we are noteven done with this year and
this number is from november.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
We have a whole entire month to add to that
number.
That's horrible.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
It's horrifying yeah, when we, when we first started
regrouping for this um newseason and you coming out to la,
one of the things you said tome was this is a solvable
problem and, uh, I love the factthat we're bringing this up
because it actually is anopportunity to hopefully, uh,
you know, put people in this, inthe flow of this opening and
(05:59):
this vacuum that's being created, to fix the problem, because
that is an insane number, that'sa ridiculous number, it's an
unacceptable number absolutelyso, uh, yeah, everyone nominate
asia nikia to to fix thisproblem in la, because she would
know how to do it.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
If the mayor wants my resume, she's welcome to it but
yeah I mean but at least getthe right, if you get the right
person.
And then we get some of therescuers here on the streets,
people that are working inCompton and Skid Row and dealing
with the low-cost spay-neuterclinics that are at their max,
that appointments are fullconstantly.
Get some people on the groundthat know what they're talking
about, that really have theanimal's best interests at heart
(06:36):
.
I mean, that's what it comesdown to.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Well, I guess keep an eye here.
We will definitely keepeveryone posted on this one,
absolutely, and you know that'sincredible.
72,000 is just an incredibleand unacceptable number, so
let's do something about that.
Moving on, pause for progresshow is what's the update with
our girl, daisy, slash Racheland, of course, alan the newbie,
(07:00):
but tell us about it.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Yeah, I mean our girl really, um, rachel slash Daisy.
Um, we like Daisy much better.
Um, daisy has been just goingthrough it.
I mean we've been getting youknow estimates and quotes and
you know, will we have toamputate her front leg?
Can we save it?
I've been talking to orthopedicsurgeons.
I've been trying to fundraise.
I mean we had a number at 6,000.
(07:23):
Now we have a number at 4,500.
That's the best I think we'regoing to get in this area.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Yeah, and for those that don't know or are just kind
of picking up on this.
We keep you updated on the Slap, the Power site, as well as
Compassion Curator andCompassion Kind.
Right yeah, we're at 24 hoursto basically get this girl some
legs.
Man, we need some legs for thisgirl, she's so adorable.

goodness for our audio listeners, they won't see a change.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Maybe on dialysis.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Dialysis.
But, yeah, I mean, I'mliterally like Googling how I
can find money for this littlegirl to get some legs tomorrow,
I mean and everything that comesup in the top 10 on Google is
only fans.
All it says is only fans onlyfans, only fans, only fans, only
fans, yeah, yeah.
And then there's arrangements.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Oh, and selling feet yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
I mean you selling feet, yeah, I mean you can you?
Can you, you can sell your?
Speaker 3 (08:43):
yeah I mean, I treated myself the other day to
a pedicure and, um, the lovelywoman at the uh nail salon was
telling me about how her friendis paying her rent, selling her
feet pictures and and onsnapchat of all places.
I didn't even know that thatwas a thing anymore.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
I did not know either .
That's incredible.
I mean yeah, I mean, can we getlegs?
Speaker 3 (09:08):
on Snapchat.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Right, sure Well, you can convert feet to legs.
That's what I'm thinking.
It's like a one.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
It's like got a correlation, you know it's a
correlation, you got one morecorrelation Feet cell legs.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
No, come on, but she is, Daisy is adorable.
We got to make this happen and,yeah, it's one of those things
where the pause for progress weneed to fix this girl's pause
for sure.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
We do, we do.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Hopefully we can stir this up for you.
All right, and we're back, aspromised, our resident Gen Z
expert here, asherher Fried.
Is it Asher or is it?
I'm still.
We're still working it out,right.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
I thought it was it's Asher, it was.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Joe, no, yeah, he's here make this ish make sense,
asher and, as usual, he's comingup from the trap door
underneath the table for thosethat are, and there he is for
those that are listening.
At home, he lives under thetable, under the pod table.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
There was another guy down there.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
What?
Oh my God, what was his name?
Did you, I mean?
Speaker 4 (10:22):
I think his name was Asher, was it?
That might have been it.
Okay, I think his name wasAsher, was it?
That might have been it.
Okay, that's who.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
You're getting confused, the confusion I mean
like sometimes I worry about,like what's going on under the
table.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Yeah, you know, I know, sure, yeah, that's why I'm
always wearing pants.
All kinds of yeah, that's whyI'm always wearing pants.
That's great.
Yeah, no, that's that's smart,because you don't know what, uh,
what could pop up fromunderneath the the uh pod table
(10:53):
here.
No, this week it is uh, it'salan, and no asher.
What do you got for us?
All right, make this ish, makesense.
What is it you refused to tellus.
Just like you know, you'resteadfast in your ideas.
You're always right, gen Zgotcha.
Okay, what is it?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Zero context.
Zero context, that's okay,let's move forward, Go ahead.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
This better be entertaining.
Okay, they're definitelyentertaining this week.
So I've got two issues for you.
The first one is a trailer foran upcoming TV project.
I want to see if you guys canguess what.
It is all right.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Oh, I love this game Okay.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
So what did you?
Speaker 3 (11:43):
guys think that was a trailer for Like end of the
world type.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Like alien invasion.
Yeah, slash new dinosaur agewith massive bugs.
I don't know Something likethat.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
So I'll give you guys a hint.
It's based on a classic videogame.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
Think classic Mario Kart.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
No, but that's actually as fair a guess as what
the answer is.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Donkey Kong no Dig Dug.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Pac-Man, it is the Pac-Man go me.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
I don't even know games.
That was Pac-Man.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
This is a new I believe it's a new Amazon
limited series.
It's going to be called SecretLevel and there's going to be
episodes.
It's an anthology series Amazonlimited series going to be
called Secret Level, and there'sgoing to be episodes.
It's an anthology series whereeach episode is going to be
based on a different video gamefranchise.
I know three of them One'sPac-Man, one's going to be Mega
man, one's going to be.
Warhammer and they're doingthese anthology series right now
, but the internet at the momentis talking about this crazy
(12:47):
Pac-man trailer that looksnothing like pac-man pac-man's a
yellow ball, yeah runs aroundeating ghosts.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Yeah, and I didn't see any ghosts in that one or
yeah, pac-man, but how does hedeal with hr though eating all
them ghosts?
Speaker 4 (12:55):
yeah, I could see that being an issue going
forward today.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Sure, in this, in this climate, in this pc world,
yeah, we eating all them ghosts.
Man come on, yeah, okay, so, so, so make it make sense.
Ask you, how, how make that ishmake sense, how, why, what?
Speaker 4 (13:09):
so a lot of people are kind of iffy.
Some people are like veryagainst him, like what is this?
You're just using the pac-manip to try to create something
new.
What is this?
I don't understand why youwould take a yellow ball and try
to change into a almost lookinglike a, like a legend of zelda
character, just a little bityeah but it's kind of hot.
Then the other opinion.
(13:29):
The other opinion which I, youknow, I kind of see that too is
we complain all the time aboutpeople making boring adaptations
of things.
Things are just one-to-one orjust not even that where it's
just lazy just sticking pagesonto screen.
You got to give them somecredit.
They are taking some realcreative liberties with Pac-Man.
We don't know what's going tohappen yet, but I'm going to
(13:50):
watch it.
I want to see what's going onwith this Pac-Man.
I kind of respect the factthey're trying something really
weird.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Yeah, you know, hey, I mean, that's where we got to
go now.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Yeah, I mean, it's seems far-fetched.
Yeah, um, and if they're tryingto, you know, pull on the
nostalgia from pac-man.
I don't know where that fits in, but sure I mean?
Speaker 1 (14:10):
I mean scraping the ip barrel boy, you're just going
around scooping it out I'vebeen hearing it with music
lately.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
Yeah, no, you think a tetris movie one came out like
two years ago already.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Yeah, yeah wow, well, all right and, as promised, uh,
pivoting a little bit, but makethis ish makes sense.
Asher elon musk all right, elon.
He's been habitually claimingthat people aren't having enough
children to sustain the worldpopulation.
Uh, extreme birth weightcollapse is the biggest danger
to human civilization thus far,says the.
(14:45):
I guess he's president-elect,right, president-elect Musk.
So make that make sense.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
Oh, my God.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
How does Gen Z feel?
Speaker 4 (14:53):
about that oh man.
Well, Gen Z is pretty splitthese days.
We're not as unified as we oncewere.
We are by no means a onceMonolith?
Speaker 2 (15:01):
No, of course not.
We are not a monolith, ofcourse not.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
We means a one monolith, yeah we're not a
monolith, of course not.
We used to be a little more ofone, I would say.
But we have divided more andmore.
But with elon I mean part of me.
Look, I myself could probablydo some more research about
overpopulation.
But also, I was born in 1999.
When I was born, the populationI think we were at six billion
people watch your feet.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
That was such a good bragging prince song too, I went
straight to the Prince song.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
Yeah sure.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Yeah, I've got people like it's 1999.
And then, since I've been alive, we've already gone up 2
billion people.
I don't feel like we're in adanger right now of
underpopulation.
If anything, I'm worried aboutoverpopulation.
There's people starving,there's homeless people.
We don't.
I mean I'm sure somewhere wehave the resources to help
everyone, but we clearly aren'tdoing it right, so why bring
(15:47):
more people into it?
No absolutely.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
What do I think this is?
I could go on for days aboutthis.
I think that that statement onhis Twitter is one of the most
dangerous statements to possiblyput out into the world when we
are dealing with climate.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
That's saying a lot from history.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
I mean, yeah, but it is a huge, huge statement, and I
mean there's a lot of followersof Musk that are going to take
that seriously and think we'vegot to be on some mission of
baby making, which is absolutelyridiculous considering that we
have not enough resources rightnow.
Nobody's even talking about thefact that we are going to face
water wars in the next 20 to 30years.
(16:26):
The water scarcity, our groundlevel water levels I mean we are
really at a breaking point.
I mean literally at a breakingpoint with climate change, and
now we have Mr Trump coming onboard, which will probably put
us backwards even more.
So the last thing we need to bedoing is putting more children
(16:47):
onto this planet, and I'll takeit a step further from there.
We have 370,000 children infoster care.
Where do those kids go In?
Speaker 1 (16:56):
the US.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Yeah, in the US, and then we're talking about all
these abortion rights and thingsthat are coming up.
Now we're going to have aplethora of children without
homes, and now we're tellingpeople they should be having
more children.
Let's take care of what we have.
Let's try to at least make useof the resources that we have
that we're already likeoverusing every single day.
(17:17):
So no, I'm not.
I'm not buying the Elon Muskstatement, and I think it's I
could be wrong.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Allegedly, allegedly, your honor, but doesn't he have
kids that he don't even knowtheir names or doesn't even
aren't they like decimal names?
Speaker 3 (17:28):
yeah, four, six, seven, I don't know dead to him.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
That's right.
He made a comment that's likeright, yeah, his um, I believe
he has a.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
I want to say he has a trans daughter and essentially
made a comment saying that theliberal woke virus killed her
and he's giving advice abouthaving children.
I'm like you are the lastperson to give advice.
Your own child's constantlyslamming you online.
That's not good.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
We have millions of children starving all over this
planet.
I am not about it at all andpeople are getting smarter and
resources are getting morescarce and families are doing
more planning.
I mean this is a good piece ofnews.
You should be putting a lot ofthought into having a baby.
You should be putting a lot ofthought into who's having kids
and what we're putting out intothe world.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
So I think the numbers.
Sorry, I didn't mean tointerrupt.
No, you're good, but I thinkthe numbers actually do sort of
bear out that we are at a placewhere the economics don't
sustain it for most people, andI think, in the same way that
that sort of decides elections,it also decides people's you
know, what they're going to dowith their families, and their
(18:31):
resources and stuff.
But yeah, it's a crazy time.
So you know, I don't know.
That's why we got the furrykinds, you know the four-legged
kinds.
They need homes too.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
I mean, I'm all about us just adopting more fur kids.
Yes, Amen.
And the children that are stilllooking for homes, that need
homes.
So yeah, absolutely ridiculousstatement.
I'm not about it.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Not about it.
Nope, hell, no, all right, andbefore we let you go, asher, you
had an update for us on Jaguar,which their Couture ad was
something that we highlightedlast time, trying to figure out
what the fuck were they doing.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Yeah, so we know what the fuck they were doing now.
Okay, so they have a new carout, the Type 00 or Type 00.
I'm going to show you guys realquick.
It'll be on the screen.
Okay, this is the new car.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Oh, wow, okay.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
That's a Jaguar.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
Yes, so these are the new Jaguars.
They're electric.
Wow, I mean, I'm not going tolie, I'm not like a big car
person and I am not mad at thatat all, I think it's an
interesting style.
My thoughts on this buildingoff of last week is that-.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
The ad campaign.
Speaker 4 (19:42):
I don't think that ad campaign did a great job
prepping this car out.
I think they were.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
You and I are talking about it now, though.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Yeah, we are talking about it.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
So maybe it did work, Maybe it worked.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
But it might be the kind of thing where I hope
people buy the car.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
So you're thinking like it created buzz, but we'll
see how many people actually buythis car let me see how much
this car is going for yeah, yeah, I mean they might have not put
a price out yet it's cute.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
That is that is I would drive that it's cute.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
I wish they had put this car in the commercial last
week, because I personally wouldhave been happier if we had
found out that they were doingsome sort of clothing line or
fashion, because then it wouldhave made what they did last
week make more sense, yeah, andfeel a little bit less.
I don't want to say that it wastaking advantage of anybody,
but it definitely felt like theywere I feel what you mean.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Yeah, it was just something about.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
It just didn't quite hit for me, the fact that I
can't see a lot of connectionsbetween the models they chose
and these cars, aside from thefact they were all wearing
pastels.
That's all I could think of,and there were no cars.
Hopefully we find out laterthat they have some kind of plan
that you know incorporatesfashion, you know style.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
It's interesting it's interesting because I, I, I,
they, you know it was so oddthat it became a thing and I
think nowadays you kind of haveto.
Nowadays it feels like you.
If you're sitting in a roomyou're like, what can we do to
promote our new car?
You really like no idea.
Is, you know, left enough?
Like no idea is crazy enough.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
I mean, it's true, that's like the brilliance of
marketing campaigns, you know.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Mad men and all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
Yeah, go crazy thinking up these, yeah, these.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
Super Bowl commercials.
You know, People are alwaystalking about them because they
leave an impression on you, nomatter what that impression is.
But I do feel you on.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Feeling duped.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Feeling a little duped and feeling like maybe
you're utilizing people fromdifferent backgrounds and
genders and all kinds ofdifferent humans to promote a
car in a cheesy kind of way, andI wanted it to work.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
I was rooting for them.
I thought it was a really coolcommercial.
I just feel like then look, Idon't.
I think that they might've beenrushing out this announcement
of the car because I know thatthere was a leak that revealed
that.
So, for all I know, in the nextfew days maybe by the time this
goes up we're going to find outthere's also going to be a
Jaguar clothing brand.
But as of now, their hand wassort of forced to be like okay,
(22:07):
this is the Jaguar plan.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
But you know, if there is a clothing brand again,
that's chef's kiss right there,because I think that's great
yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
But if it's just for the new car model I just look it
about it, but is it successfulin the fact where, a year from
now, we're like, oh, that wasstupid, like, or that was a
smart move, we don't know, maybeor maybe we'll see all of those
(22:34):
same characters in thecommercial on ads on the freeway
, and you know, that would be,uh, like beautiful articulation
and extension, yeah, if we startseeing those commercials, with
those humans that were sobeautifully put on their, on
their commercial, um then maybeit'll make sense, you know,
Speaker 1 (22:48):
yeah maybe they got a rollout plan.
Yeah, yeah, you know, everybodygets a free jag really smart
and we're just getting too soft.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
So what we said last week was right, though, that
they were definitely leaning tohave a less traditional
masculine look, and you knowthese cars are definitely.
I would say more, more genderneutral looking, you know,
depending on what kind of caryou're looking for.
I'm assuming that's not goingto just come in those two colors
, but pastels yeah, the pastelsare nice though but, they'll get
dirty.
They'll get dirty fast yeah,yeah, but cool looking they are
cool but you know look at leastthey were accurate and trying to
(23:18):
say like, yeah, we're not goingto be doing the classic,
original jaguar style.
Like I don't know if you guyssaw there were ads from like
past few decades where it's beena little bit, it's been a
little cheesy, you know.
It's like there's this one adit might be on the screen, I'm
not sure where it's like thispussycat can't be tamed and it's
a picture of the jaguarcrawling through the woods or
something you know it's adifferent cheesy what year?
(23:39):
was this oh my god, 70s, maybe,maybe, don't quote me on that.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
I was just looking at Twitter.
It makes a little sense.
It's been 100 years.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
Jaguar started in 1920, and now we're in 2025.
So if they want to trysomething new, try it now, and
if it doesn't work, go fromthere.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
That's what we say.
That's what we say here.
I like that.
I do All right well, when weget back from the break, two
scams and a slap and we alsofinish off with dissecting
martial law in South Korea, andit might be some advice for us
moving forward.
Yeah, we'll see you after thebreak.
Speaker 5 (24:13):
Hi, I'm Anjali Bhimani and I'm Julia Bianco and
we are so excited to bebringing you our new creative
baby, the Character SelectPodcast.
I've wanted to save the worldsince I was four.
Speaker 4 (24:26):
There has been no character like him up to that
point, and there really hasn'tbeen a character since.
Speaker 5 (24:29):
Every episode of Character Select, we're going to
be taking fantastic video gameperformances and talking about
what makes them tick, what makesthem exciting as players, as
performers, as sound designers,as casting directors.
That was, I feel like I've beenambushed.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
I was going to be on a podcast to talk about a video
game.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
So there's a big old love fest here.
That's how we start this, andyou're just going to have to
deal with it.
Recognized by the 2013 editionof the Guinness World Book of
Records, gamers Edition, as themost prolific female video game
voice actor in the world.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
You know it's a special project when you hold on
to the people you created itwith.
Careers are born by being inthe right place at the right
time.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
where you can't control the right time, but you
can control the right place wehave to talk about it because
everybody else is talking aboutit and it's ridiculous.
The, the pardon powers in thiscountry have been abused since
the beginning of the thiscountry and yeah, yesterday joe
biden, uh, he pardoned his son,hunter biden vowing not to for
(25:31):
essentially his wholere-election campaign, his whole
presidential campaign, and he,you know, hunter, had been uh
convicted for lying to a gundealer, lying on federal
screening uh form about his druguse and possessing a gun,
despite restrictions for peopleaddicted to drugs.
And it is true that for mostpeople, first offenses and stuff
(25:52):
like that, this is notsomething.
It is true that he was thecenter of a political witch hunt
.
It is true that he would begoing to jail.
It's largely a a trad.
It would be a tragedy ofjustice nothing compared to
trump letting out the january6th rioters, especially the
(26:12):
people that you know did harm topolice officers.
It was something like 100 andsomething police officers that
day, on january 6th, that wereinjured and uh, several died.
And you know to think thatthose you know you're he's just
gonna use, they're gonna use thefact that biden did this on the
way out and I, I like what Isaw online about this and I and
(26:34):
I think I heard love it sayingor something, but it was
basically his fuck it pardonyeah I'd never thought about it,
but I think about it.
he, he thought he could win andthen now he's getting blamed for
where we are.
He knows that you know, themayor mccheese is going to be in
charge of the department ofjustice coming.
You know, let's be honest, theHamburglar is going to be the
(26:59):
Department of Treasury.
And so you know, fuck it Onyour way out.
But the thing that is messed upis that in his statement he
gave him for the pardon.
He gave him 11-year pardon,Like blanket pardon, Going back
to 2014.
I'm all for the fuck it pardonif you would have like blanket
(27:22):
pardoned.
Think of everybody that Trumphas said and his people have
said that they're going to goafter when they get in.
You know, Nancy Pelosi.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
You know Anthony Fauci, you know anybody from the
FBI.
They want to go after JackSmith, right, and so give
pardons to those people.
You know, give blanket pardonsto those people.
First it just looks bad man andhe's done so many good things
(27:53):
it is.
It's frustrating and at thesame time, you know, I think you
take most people nowadays theywould do it for their children.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
I mean it's their kid , you know it's your child.
I mean we have to be able toseparate ourselves, but also
understanding the position thatthey're in.
But at the end of the day, theyare human.
Well, most of them are, yeah,Most of them are human.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Yeah, but like Trump pardoning his son-in-law's dad
or himself, or Paul Manafort,who was literally talking to
Russian intelligence with datafigures for Trump, like that
kind of stuff there shouldn't bepardons.
But Trump pardoned it and wejust gloss over the pardon now.
(28:33):
And it was always one of thosethings where I was frustrated
that they let off you know,george Bush.
I was frustrated that they letoff people in the financial
crisis of 2008.
Like how are people not getting?
And it just almost it justsolidifies a sad reality that
there's just too there are thatsort of that kind of political
(28:57):
White house crimes and stufflike that.
It, I don't know, it just feelsit's kind of depressing in in
some way, even though you kindof understand that he did it
yeah, and.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
And then I think about you know more than half of
our incarcerated.
You know people are innocentyeah we've got people on death
row and manslaughter that havebeen proven not guilty time and
time again, and we just let themcontinue on with their jail
sentences.
So it's just frustratingbecause it's like it's just
(29:31):
always a game.
Why does this one get away withit and why does this one not?
If we have a rule or a law andthis is what it is, thank you
like you can't make thingswishy-washy, like it makes it
very hard for people tounderstand and then it creates a
very slippery slope yeah foranybody that wants to do crime
or, you know, break those lawslike I don't understand it.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
So I it's, it's, it's depressing a little bit, and
you know how about, uh, you know, do a blanket pardon, pardon of
everybody that is, you know,convicted of nonviolent
marijuana crimes.
How about do that?
Do a blanket pardon for allnonviolent marijuana offenders
federally, on your way out.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Yeah, you want to impress us.
Do that.
And all nonviolent studentsjust trying to pay their student
loan debt, like myself.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
That would be a really great pardon.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
That's the Supreme Court.
I'm taking it too far now.
I'm taking it too far on thepardons, but I'm just saying no,
but I mean Supreme Court's likeno, we can't help you guys with
your student loan debt.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
But they can give away billions.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Watch the pardons that are about to come.
January 20th, oof, all right,coming up after the break we'll
get into what's going on inSouth Korea and that part of the
world that we need to payattention to.
It's martial law, it's, I don'tknow, getting rid of their
president, and so we're going totell you why that's relevant.
And then Asia gets to ask meI'm in the hot seat with you,
(30:52):
the listener, for two scams anda slap.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Gambling is part of the culture of America since
even before we were America.
I'm Norman Chad.
I know gambling.
I've played blackjack and poker.
I've bet sports and horse races.

Speaker 1 (31:26):
All right.
Martial law was put in place inSouth Korea for six hours
before parliament reversed thedecision.
Currently, impeachmentproceedings are in place for
Yoon Suk-yeol to eliminateanti-state forces, and the
question is, why would he dothis in the first place?
And if you can be pushed backby parliament or you can be
(31:55):
without even really having toget to the people?
That was fascinating to me,because I think it's going to be
required of us to uh deal.
There's a lot of things that wethought help was coming and help
is not coming, and so thisstory was really, really
encouraging, I think, because itwas.
It was a problem.
It was almost like what wouldbe the equivalent of a
constitutional emergency right,a constitutional crisis or
(32:18):
whatever that we could have hereyou know really easily, and to
know that it can actually getworked out by the people that
are in charge.
Now, I don't know what Vegasodds are on us being able to
pull that off here, but it stillis nice to know and to see it
when something kind of works andthe checks and balances you
know show that yeah, okay, itcan actually happen, you can
(32:41):
hold, you can do this safety net?
Speaker 3 (32:43):
No, absolutely.
I mean it gives you a littlebit of hope and security that
maybe those checks and balancescan come into play.
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
We might need to do it here, just asking for a
friend.
It's not me.
It's not me, it's my neighbor.
My neighbor was wondering.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
Your neighbor.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Yeah, my neighbor was wondering if we have to do
something like that here.
How does that go abouthappening?
Give us the steps.
So, if you know this, put it inour comments.
I'll pass it to my neighborBefore we get out of here.
Promised Two scams and a slap.
Today I am in the hot seat.
For those of you that don'tknow Two scams and a slap.
(33:23):
This world is so batshit crazythat we have to pick which one
of these things Is actually true.
And the messed up thing is somany of these things.
Nowadays you're kind ofthinking they could all be true.
So but give it to me.
Give it to me.
Today we're in the hot seatwith you, the dear listener.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
Okay, first one A man claims to have invented a sleep
deprivation alarm clock thatwakes you up with disturbing
news and facts.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Okay.
The second one, that'sdiabolical, okay.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
New York artist shoots a massive nude photo
shoot on the iconic Story Bridge.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
And third, a woman finds her missing cat after an
Instagram account starring hercat goes viral.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
Oh my God, On sheer, just on sheer, the balance of
what it is.
I want that to be true.
I'm going gonna say that didthe cat have an instagram
account?
Speaker 3 (34:21):
no, oh man.
So that one threw me because Iwas thinking like I mean
charlie's a cat charlie's got ayou know he's a best-selling
author and he's got a.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
You know he's got a right instagram page so it could
be possible.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
Cats and dogs are, you know, ruling the instagrams?
Speaker 1 (34:37):
so Dogs at least, Not necessarily so much cats.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
In your world.
Yes, We'll say animals forchildren, Sure for everyone.
No, the slap of reality is thatthe New York artist did a huge,
massive nude photo shoot.
Now, what's cool about it isthat I mean, the visuals are
really amazing.
I mean, when do you seethousands of naked people on a
(35:02):
bridge?
Speaker 2 (35:05):
I mean, did you see what I did last?
Speaker 3 (35:07):
weekend.
Speaker 2 (35:08):

Speaker 2 (35:17):
Come on, guys, we're going streaking.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
You guys might get lucky and catch Rick streaking,
yeah, streaking down through LA,but no, no, but this was an
actual beautiful display of thehuman body and it was just kind
of I mean, it was reallybeautiful to see that they all
are making the same shapes onthe bridge you know laying, you
know doing all of this stuff andit just looks cool from aerial.
(35:39):
You know the photography thatwas done, yeah, and apparently
it's on display for a couplemonths, but yeah just
interesting you wouldn't thinkthere would be a public nude
display In this country, in thiscountry, yeah, in New York,

We have to talk about it because everybody else is
talking about it and it'sridiculous.
The pardon powers in thiscountry have been abused since
the beginning of this country.
And yeah, yesterday Joe Biden,he pardoned his son.
Nothing compared to Trumpletting out the January 6th
rioters, especially the peoplethat you know did harm to police
(00:24):
officers.
All right, the world may notneed another podcast, but it can
definitely use a slap.
(00:46):
Welcome to Slap the Power, theshow that lifts artists who use
their powers for positiveprogress.
I'm Rick Barrio-Dill and I'mAsia Nakia.
That's right On the show.
Today we touch base with ourresident badass artist who's
using her powers for positiveprogress Asia Nakia, and we're
leading off with Paws forProgress today on our furry
fighters, rachel and Alan, aswell as the general manager of
(01:08):
LA Animal Services stepping down.
So lots of stuff going on there.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Yes, and then we're going to go into Joe Biden and
the fact that he pardoned hisson, hunter Biden, after vowing
not to do the very thing he saidhe just did.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
I know Everybody's got their take on this, and we
do too, but it's still worthtalking about and chopping it up
, because on one level it'sastounding, on the other level
you'd probably do it for yourpeople.
So that's just the place we'reat, and then a little later
we're going to catch up with ourGen Z correspondent, asher
Freidberg, with a new edition ofMake this Ish, make Sense,
(01:45):
asher.
He refused to give us anycontext today.
You know, kind of just like aGen Zer he's like no, I'm not
even going to tell you.
But I'm going to tell you we'regoing to have to make it.
Ish make sense, so stick aroundfor that.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
And then we've got the wonderfully articulated
comments from Elon Musk aboutfighting population decline,
even though he has children thathe doesn't want to claim
anymore.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
And we touch on martial law being enacted for
six hours in South Korea, andnow impeachment proceedings have
begun against the president andwe ponder can we do that here?
Is it possible?
We'll find out.
Asking for a friend?
We'll find out.
Uh, asking for a friend.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
And then, a little later, we've got our, our most
favorite little segment here twoscams and a slap where we take
three batshit crazy events, twoof which are fake and one which
is real, and we have to figureout which one is actually the
truth.
And today I am reading to Rick,and you are going to have to
decide which one is the slap inthe face.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
That's right.
I'm in the hot seat today alongwith you, the listeners.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
But first we're going to talk about some huge news
here in LA.
We just heard that the generalmanager of Los Angeles Animal
Services just resigned yesterday.
This is huge news.
I mean, we've been talkingabout the LA like shelter crisis
, you know, almost in everyepisode because it's just so
(03:11):
hard hitting and devastating.
And now here we.
Here we are again.
We've got a chance.
The mayor is now scouting forthis person that will take over
this job.
I mean, I am I'm like on edge,trying to figure out who is
going to be the next candidate.
Is this person going to make adifference?
I don't know, but I'm going tobe watching this like a hawk.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Is that a gig that you know?
Are there?
What's the list on people thatare actually perfectly suited
for this gig?
I mean.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
the issue with hiring shelter directors and the issue
that animal services is under agovernment body is that they
always go for people within thegovernment because they like
people that know the lingo.
They like people that know howto work in the city environment.
All of those things are great,but we don't need that right now
, like we need someone to comein that has been working in
(04:04):
every aspect of rescue.
We need somebody that isbrilliant on the streets.
We need someone thatunderstands you know how
shelters run and operate.
We need someone thatunderstands the you know spay
and neuter crisis that we have.
We need someone that's reallyin all of these different
pockets, not just someone that'scome up through the government
tiers and needs their nextadministrative job which is what
(04:26):
happens 99% of the time andthat's just not working.
So who would be a good candidate?
Me, you, I would.
You know that is something thatI would love to tackle, but
really it needs to be someonewith a rescue mindset.
It needs to be someone thatunderstands the ordinances, the
(04:49):
laws that are in place, the lawsthat need to change, how we can
best reach out to our communitywith low-cost spay neuter
clinics, um, how we can put anend to the license and intact
licenses.
So there's so much involved init.
But I just I am like fingerscrossed.
Let this be the positive changethat we need to move LA forward
.
I mean, 76,000 animals thisyear have been killed I'm going
(05:15):
to stop saying euthanized,because it sounds pretty and
it's just not and it's notacceptable.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
76,000 nationwide, no 76,000?
In Los.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Angeles, in LA, in LA , 76,000.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Acceptable 76 000 nationwide, no 76 in los angeles
, in la in la 76 000 we are noteven done with this year and
this number is from november.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
We have a whole entire month to add to that
number.
That's horrible.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
It's horrifying yeah, when we, when we first started
regrouping for this um newseason and you coming out to la,
one of the things you said tome was this is a solvable
problem and, uh, I love the factthat we're bringing this up
because it actually is anopportunity to hopefully, uh,
you know, put people in this, inthe flow of this opening and
(05:59):
this vacuum that's being created, to fix the problem, because
that is an insane number, that'sa ridiculous number, it's an
unacceptable number absolutelyso, uh, yeah, everyone nominate
asia nikia to to fix thisproblem in la, because she would
know how to do it.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
If the mayor wants my resume, she's welcome to it but
yeah I mean but at least getthe right, if you get the right
person.
And then we get some of therescuers here on the streets,
people that are working inCompton and Skid Row and dealing
with the low-cost spay-neuterclinics that are at their max,
that appointments are fullconstantly.
Get some people on the groundthat know what they're talking
about, that really have theanimal's best interests at heart
(06:36):
.
I mean, that's what it comesdown to.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Well, I guess keep an eye here.
We will definitely keepeveryone posted on this one,
absolutely, and you know that'sincredible.
72,000 is just an incredibleand unacceptable number, so
let's do something about that.
Moving on, pause for progresshow is what's the update with
our girl, daisy, slash Racheland, of course, alan the newbie,
(07:00):
but tell us about it.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Yeah, I mean our girl really, um, rachel slash Daisy.
Um, we like Daisy much better.
Um, daisy has been just goingthrough it.
I mean we've been getting youknow estimates and quotes and
you know, will we have toamputate her front leg?
Can we save it?
I've been talking to orthopedicsurgeons.
I've been trying to fundraise.
I mean we had a number at 6,000.
(07:23):
Now we have a number at 4,500.
That's the best I think we'regoing to get in this area.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Yeah, and for those that don't know or are just kind
of picking up on this.
We keep you updated on the Slap, the Power site, as well as
Compassion Curator andCompassion Kind.
Right yeah, we're at 24 hoursto basically get this girl some
legs.
Man, we need some legs for thisgirl, she's so adorable.
Check it out on Instagram, youknow there are.
You know we could do 45 peopledoing, you know, $10, right.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Yeah, and we would be there.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
We would be there, yeah, so make sure to check it
out.
Check it out on our site andget involved.
You know what is the open ratefor a kidney, I think, or.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Oh yeah, I mean, I'm literally you know.
Next show I might be a newversion of myself which, thank
goodness for our audio listeners, they won't see a change.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Maybe on dialysis.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Dialysis.
But, yeah, I mean, I'mliterally like Googling how I
can find money for this littlegirl to get some legs tomorrow,
I mean and everything that comesup in the top 10 on Google is
only fans.
All it says is only fans onlyfans, only fans, only fans, only

a pedicure and, um, the lovelywoman at the uh nail salon was
telling me about how her friendis paying her rent, selling her
feet pictures and and onsnapchat of all places.
I didn't even know that thatwas a thing anymore.
Speaker 1 (09:03):

That's incredible.
I mean yeah, I mean, can we getlegs?
Speaker 3 (09:08):
on Snapchat.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Right, sure Well, you can convert feet to legs.
That's what I'm thinking.
It's like a one.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
It's like got a correlation, you know it's a
correlation, you got one morecorrelation Feet cell legs.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
No, come on, but she is, Daisy is adorable.
We got to make this happen and,yeah, it's one of those things
where the pause for progress weneed to fix this girl's pause
for sure.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
We do, we do.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Hopefully we can stir this up for you.
All right, and we're back, aspromised, our resident Gen Z
expert here, asherher Fried.
Is it Asher or is it?
I'm still.
We're still working it out,right.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
I thought it was it's Asher, it was.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Joe, no, yeah, he's here make this ish make sense,
asher and, as usual, he's comingup from the trap door
underneath the table for thosethat are, and there he is for
those that are listening.
At home, he lives under thetable, under the pod table.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
There was another guy down there.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
What?
Oh my God, what was his name?
Did you, I mean?
Speaker 4 (10:22):
I think his name was Asher, was it?
That might have been it.
Okay, I think his name wasAsher, was it?
That might have been it.
Okay, that's who.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
You're getting confused, the confusion I mean
like sometimes I worry about,like what's going on under the
table.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Yeah, you know, I know, sure, yeah, that's why I'm
always wearing pants.
All kinds of yeah, that's whyI'm always wearing pants.
That's great.
Yeah, no, that's that's smart,because you don't know what, uh,
what could pop up fromunderneath the the uh pod table
(10:53):
here.
No, this week it is uh, it'salan, and no asher.
What do you got for us?
All right, make this ish, makesense.
What is it you refused to tellus.
Just like you know, you'resteadfast in your ideas.
You're always right, gen Zgotcha.
Okay, what is it?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Zero context.
Zero context, that's okay,let's move forward, Go ahead.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
This better be entertaining.
Okay, they're definitelyentertaining this week.
So I've got two issues for you.
The first one is a trailer foran upcoming TV project.
I want to see if you guys canguess what.
It is all right.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Oh, I love this game Okay.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
So what did you?
Speaker 3 (11:43):
guys think that was a trailer for Like end of the
world type.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Like alien invasion.
Yeah, slash new dinosaur agewith massive bugs.
I don't know Something likethat.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
So I'll give you guys a hint.
It's based on a classic videogame.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
Think classic Mario Kart.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
No, but that's actually as fair a guess as what
the answer is.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Donkey Kong no Dig Dug.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Pac-Man, it is the Pac-Man go me.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
I don't even know games.
That was Pac-Man.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
This is a new I believe it's a new Amazon
limited series.
It's going to be called SecretLevel and there's going to be
episodes.
It's an anthology series Amazonlimited series going to be
called Secret Level, and there'sgoing to be episodes.
It's an anthology series whereeach episode is going to be
based on a different video gamefranchise.
I know three of them One'sPac-Man, one's going to be Mega
man, one's going to be.
Warhammer and they're doingthese anthology series right now
, but the internet at the momentis talking about this crazy
(12:47):
Pac-man trailer that looksnothing like pac-man pac-man's a
yellow ball, yeah runs aroundeating ghosts.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Yeah, and I didn't see any ghosts in that one or
yeah, pac-man, but how does hedeal with hr though eating all
them ghosts?
Speaker 4 (12:55):
yeah, I could see that being an issue going
forward today.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Sure, in this, in this climate, in this pc world,
yeah, we eating all them ghosts.
Man come on, yeah, okay, so, so, so make it make sense.
Ask you, how, how make that ishmake sense, how, why, what?
Speaker 4 (13:09):
so a lot of people are kind of iffy.
Some people are like veryagainst him, like what is this?
You're just using the pac-manip to try to create something
new.
What is this?
I don't understand why youwould take a yellow ball and try
to change into a almost lookinglike a, like a legend of zelda
character, just a little bityeah but it's kind of hot.
Then the other opinion.
(13:29):
The other opinion which I, youknow, I kind of see that too is
we complain all the time aboutpeople making boring adaptations
of things.
Things are just one-to-one orjust not even that where it's
just lazy just sticking pagesonto screen.
You got to give them somecredit.
They are taking some realcreative liberties with Pac-Man.
We don't know what's going tohappen yet, but I'm going to
(13:50):
watch it.
I want to see what's going onwith this Pac-Man.
I kind of respect the factthey're trying something really
weird.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Yeah, you know, hey, I mean, that's where we got to
go now.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Yeah, I mean, it's seems far-fetched.
Yeah, um, and if they're tryingto, you know, pull on the
nostalgia from pac-man.
I don't know where that fits in, but sure I mean?
Speaker 1 (14:10):
I mean scraping the ip barrel boy, you're just going
around scooping it out I'vebeen hearing it with music
lately.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
Yeah, no, you think a tetris movie one came out like
two years ago already.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Yeah, yeah wow, well, all right and, as promised, uh,
pivoting a little bit, but makethis ish makes sense.
Asher elon musk all right, elon.
He's been habitually claimingthat people aren't having enough
children to sustain the worldpopulation.
Uh, extreme birth weightcollapse is the biggest danger
to human civilization thus far,says the.
(14:45):
I guess he's president-elect,right, president-elect Musk.
So make that make sense.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
Oh, my God.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
How does Gen Z feel?
Speaker 4 (14:53):
about that oh man.
Well, Gen Z is pretty splitthese days.
We're not as unified as we oncewere.
We are by no means a onceMonolith?
Speaker 2 (15:01):
No, of course not.
We are not a monolith, ofcourse not.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
We means a one monolith, yeah we're not a
monolith, of course not.
We used to be a little more ofone, I would say.
But we have divided more andmore.
But with elon I mean part of me.
Look, I myself could probablydo some more research about
overpopulation.
But also, I was born in 1999.
When I was born, the populationI think we were at six billion
people watch your feet.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
That was such a good bragging prince song too, I went
straight to the Prince song.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
Yeah sure.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Yeah, I've got people like it's 1999.
And then, since I've been alive, we've already gone up 2
billion people.
I don't feel like we're in adanger right now of
underpopulation.
If anything, I'm worried aboutoverpopulation.
There's people starving,there's homeless people.
We don't.
I mean I'm sure somewhere wehave the resources to help
everyone, but we clearly aren'tdoing it right, so why bring
(15:47):
more people into it?
No absolutely.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
What do I think this is?
I could go on for days aboutthis.
I think that that statement onhis Twitter is one of the most
dangerous statements to possiblyput out into the world when we
are dealing with climate.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
That's saying a lot from history.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
I mean, yeah, but it is a huge, huge statement, and I
mean there's a lot of followersof Musk that are going to take
that seriously and think we'vegot to be on some mission of
baby making, which is absolutelyridiculous considering that we
have not enough resources rightnow.
Nobody's even talking about thefact that we are going to face
water wars in the next 20 to 30years.
(16:26):
The water scarcity, our groundlevel water levels I mean we are
really at a breaking point.
I mean literally at a breakingpoint with climate change, and
now we have Mr Trump coming onboard, which will probably put
us backwards even more.
So the last thing we need to bedoing is putting more children
(16:47):
onto this planet, and I'll takeit a step further from there.
We have 370,000 children infoster care.
Where do those kids go In?
Speaker 1 (16:56):
the US.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Yeah, in the US, and then we're talking about all
these abortion rights and thingsthat are coming up.
Now we're going to have aplethora of children without
homes, and now we're tellingpeople they should be having
more children.
Let's take care of what we have.
Let's try to at least make useof the resources that we have
that we're already likeoverusing every single day.
(17:17):
So no, I'm not.
I'm not buying the Elon Muskstatement, and I think it's I
could be wrong.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Allegedly, allegedly, your honor, but doesn't he have
kids that he don't even knowtheir names or doesn't even
aren't they like decimal names?
Speaker 3 (17:28):
yeah, four, six, seven, I don't know dead to him.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
That's right.
He made a comment that's likeright, yeah, his um, I believe
he has a.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
I want to say he has a trans daughter and essentially
made a comment saying that theliberal woke virus killed her
and he's giving advice abouthaving children.
I'm like you are the lastperson to give advice.
Your own child's constantlyslamming you online.
That's not good.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
We have millions of children starving all over this
planet.
I am not about it at all andpeople are getting smarter and
resources are getting morescarce and families are doing
more planning.
I mean this is a good piece ofnews.
You should be putting a lot ofthought into having a baby.
You should be putting a lot ofthought into who's having kids
and what we're putting out intothe world.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
So I think the numbers.
Sorry, I didn't mean tointerrupt.
No, you're good, but I thinkthe numbers actually do sort of
bear out that we are at a placewhere the economics don't
sustain it for most people, andI think, in the same way that
that sort of decides elections,it also decides people's you
know, what they're going to dowith their families, and their
(18:31):
resources and stuff.
But yeah, it's a crazy time.
So you know, I don't know.
That's why we got the furrykinds, you know the four-legged
kinds.
They need homes too.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
I mean, I'm all about us just adopting more fur kids.
Yes, Amen.
And the children that are stilllooking for homes, that need
homes.
So yeah, absolutely ridiculousstatement.
I'm not about it.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Not about it.
Nope, hell, no, all right, andbefore we let you go, asher, you
had an update for us on Jaguar,which their Couture ad was
something that we highlightedlast time, trying to figure out
what the fuck were they doing.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Yeah, so we know what the fuck they were doing now.
Okay, so they have a new carout, the Type 00 or Type 00.
I'm going to show you guys realquick.
It'll be on the screen.
Okay, this is the new car.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Oh, wow, okay.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
That's a Jaguar.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
Yes, so these are the new Jaguars.
They're electric.
Wow, I mean, I'm not going tolie, I'm not like a big car
person and I am not mad at thatat all, I think it's an
interesting style.
My thoughts on this buildingoff of last week is that-.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
The ad campaign.
Speaker 4 (19:42):
I don't think that ad campaign did a great job
prepping this car out.
I think they were.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
You and I are talking about it now, though.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Yeah, we are talking about it.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
So maybe it did work, Maybe it worked.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
But it might be the kind of thing where I hope
people buy the car.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
So you're thinking like it created buzz, but we'll
see how many people actually buythis car let me see how much
this car is going for yeah, yeah, I mean they might have not put
a price out yet it's cute.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
That is that is I would drive that it's cute.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
I wish they had put this car in the commercial last
week, because I personally wouldhave been happier if we had
found out that they were doingsome sort of clothing line or
fashion, because then it wouldhave made what they did last
week make more sense, yeah, andfeel a little bit less.
I don't want to say that it wastaking advantage of anybody,
but it definitely felt like theywere I feel what you mean.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Yeah, it was just something about.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
It just didn't quite hit for me, the fact that I
can't see a lot of connectionsbetween the models they chose
and these cars, aside from thefact they were all wearing
pastels.
That's all I could think of,and there were no cars.
Hopefully we find out laterthat they have some kind of plan
that you know incorporatesfashion, you know style.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
It's interesting it's interesting because I, I, I,
they, you know it was so oddthat it became a thing and I
think nowadays you kind of haveto.
Nowadays it feels like you.
If you're sitting in a roomyou're like, what can we do to
promote our new car?
You really like no idea.
Is, you know, left enough?
Like no idea is crazy enough.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
I mean, it's true, that's like the brilliance of
marketing campaigns, you know.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Mad men and all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
Yeah, go crazy thinking up these, yeah, these.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
Super Bowl commercials.
You know, People are alwaystalking about them because they
leave an impression on you, nomatter what that impression is.
But I do feel you on.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Feeling duped.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Feeling a little duped and feeling like maybe
you're utilizing people fromdifferent backgrounds and
genders and all kinds ofdifferent humans to promote a
car in a cheesy kind of way, andI wanted it to work.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
I was rooting for them.
I thought it was a really coolcommercial.
I just feel like then look, Idon't.
I think that they might've beenrushing out this announcement
of the car because I know thatthere was a leak that revealed
that.
So, for all I know, in the nextfew days maybe by the time this
goes up we're going to find outthere's also going to be a
Jaguar clothing brand.
But as of now, their hand wassort of forced to be like okay,
(22:07):
this is the Jaguar plan.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
But you know, if there is a clothing brand again,
that's chef's kiss right there,because I think that's great
yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
But if it's just for the new car model I just look it
about it, but is it successfulin the fact where, a year from
now, we're like, oh, that wasstupid, like, or that was a
smart move, we don't know, maybeor maybe we'll see all of those
(22:34):
same characters in thecommercial on ads on the freeway
, and you know, that would be,uh, like beautiful articulation
and extension, yeah, if we startseeing those commercials, with
those humans that were sobeautifully put on their, on
their commercial, um then maybeit'll make sense, you know,
Speaker 1 (22:48):
yeah maybe they got a rollout plan.
Yeah, yeah, you know, everybodygets a free jag really smart
and we're just getting too soft.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
So what we said last week was right, though, that
they were definitely leaning tohave a less traditional
masculine look, and you knowthese cars are definitely.
I would say more, more genderneutral looking, you know,
depending on what kind of caryou're looking for.
I'm assuming that's not goingto just come in those two colors
, but pastels yeah, the pastelsare nice though but, they'll get
dirty.
They'll get dirty fast yeah,yeah, but cool looking they are
cool but you know look at leastthey were accurate and trying to
(23:18):
say like, yeah, we're not goingto be doing the classic,
original jaguar style.
Like I don't know if you guyssaw there were ads from like
past few decades where it's beena little bit, it's been a
little cheesy, you know.
It's like there's this one adit might be on the screen, I'm
not sure where it's like thispussycat can't be tamed and it's
a picture of the jaguarcrawling through the woods or
something you know it's adifferent cheesy what year?
(23:39):
was this oh my god, 70s, maybe,maybe, don't quote me on that.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
I was just looking at Twitter.
It makes a little sense.
It's been 100 years.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
Jaguar started in 1920, and now we're in 2025.
So if they want to trysomething new, try it now, and
if it doesn't work, go fromthere.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
That's what we say.
That's what we say here.
I like that.
I do All right well, when weget back from the break, two
scams and a slap and we alsofinish off with dissecting
martial law in South Korea, andit might be some advice for us
moving forward.
Yeah, we'll see you after thebreak.
Speaker 5 (24:13):
Hi, I'm Anjali Bhimani and I'm Julia Bianco and
we are so excited to bebringing you our new creative
baby, the Character SelectPodcast.
I've wanted to save the worldsince I was four.
Speaker 4 (24:26):
There has been no character like him up to that
point, and there really hasn'tbeen a character since.
Speaker 5 (24:29):
Every episode of Character Select, we're going to
be taking fantastic video gameperformances and talking about
what makes them tick, what makesthem exciting as players, as
performers, as sound designers,as casting directors.
That was, I feel like I've beenambushed.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
I was going to be on a podcast to talk about a video
game.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
So there's a big old love fest here.
That's how we start this, andyou're just going to have to
deal with it.
Recognized by the 2013 editionof the Guinness World Book of
Records, gamers Edition, as themost prolific female video game
voice actor in the world.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
You know it's a special project when you hold on
to the people you created itwith.
Careers are born by being inthe right place at the right
time.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
where you can't control the right time, but you
can control the right place wehave to talk about it because
everybody else is talking aboutit and it's ridiculous.
The, the pardon powers in thiscountry have been abused since
the beginning of the thiscountry and yeah, yesterday joe
biden, uh, he pardoned his son,hunter biden vowing not to for
(25:31):
essentially his wholere-election campaign, his whole
presidential campaign, and he,you know, hunter, had been uh
convicted for lying to a gundealer, lying on federal
screening uh form about his druguse and possessing a gun,
despite restrictions for peopleaddicted to drugs.
And it is true that for mostpeople, first offenses and stuff
(25:52):
like that, this is notsomething.
It is true that he was thecenter of a political witch hunt
.
It is true that he would begoing to jail.
It's largely a a trad.
It would be a tragedy ofjustice nothing compared to
trump letting out the january6th rioters, especially the
(26:12):
people that you know did harm topolice officers.
It was something like 100 andsomething police officers that
day, on january 6th, that wereinjured and uh, several died.
And you know to think thatthose you know you're he's just
gonna use, they're gonna use thefact that biden did this on the
way out and I, I like what Isaw online about this and I and
(26:34):
I think I heard love it sayingor something, but it was
basically his fuck it pardonyeah I'd never thought about it,
but I think about it.
he, he thought he could win andthen now he's getting blamed for
where we are.
He knows that you know, themayor mccheese is going to be in
charge of the department ofjustice coming.
You know, let's be honest, theHamburglar is going to be the
(26:59):
Department of Treasury.
And so you know, fuck it Onyour way out.
But the thing that is messed upis that in his statement he
gave him for the pardon.
He gave him 11-year pardon,Like blanket pardon, Going back
to 2014.
I'm all for the fuck it pardonif you would have like blanket
(27:22):
pardoned.
Think of everybody that Trumphas said and his people have
said that they're going to goafter when they get in.
You know, Nancy Pelosi.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
You know Anthony Fauci, you know anybody from the
FBI.
They want to go after JackSmith, right, and so give
pardons to those people.
You know, give blanket pardonsto those people.
First it just looks bad man andhe's done so many good things
(27:53):
it is.
It's frustrating and at thesame time, you know, I think you
take most people nowadays theywould do it for their children.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
I mean it's their kid , you know it's your child.
I mean we have to be able toseparate ourselves, but also
understanding the position thatthey're in.
But at the end of the day, theyare human.
Well, most of them are, yeah,Most of them are human.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Yeah, but like Trump pardoning his son-in-law's dad
or himself, or Paul Manafort,who was literally talking to
Russian intelligence with datafigures for Trump, like that
kind of stuff there shouldn't bepardons.
But Trump pardoned it and wejust gloss over the pardon now.
(28:33):
And it was always one of thosethings where I was frustrated
that they let off you know,george Bush.
I was frustrated that they letoff people in the financial
crisis of 2008.
Like how are people not getting?
And it just almost it justsolidifies a sad reality that
there's just too there are thatsort of that kind of political
(28:57):
White house crimes and stufflike that.
It, I don't know, it just feelsit's kind of depressing in in
some way, even though you kindof understand that he did it
yeah, and.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
And then I think about you know more than half of
our incarcerated.
You know people are innocentyeah we've got people on death
row and manslaughter that havebeen proven not guilty time and
time again, and we just let themcontinue on with their jail
sentences.
So it's just frustratingbecause it's like it's just
(29:31):
always a game.
Why does this one get away withit and why does this one not?
If we have a rule or a law andthis is what it is, thank you
like you can't make thingswishy-washy, like it makes it
very hard for people tounderstand and then it creates a
very slippery slope yeah foranybody that wants to do crime
or, you know, break those lawslike I don't understand it.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
So I it's, it's, it's depressing a little bit, and
you know how about, uh, you know, do a blanket pardon, pardon of
everybody that is, you know,convicted of nonviolent
marijuana crimes.
How about do that?
Do a blanket pardon for allnonviolent marijuana offenders
federally, on your way out.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Yeah, you want to impress us.
Do that.
And all nonviolent studentsjust trying to pay their student
loan debt, like myself.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
That would be a really great pardon.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
That's the Supreme Court.
I'm taking it too far now.
I'm taking it too far on thepardons, but I'm just saying no,
but I mean Supreme Court's likeno, we can't help you guys with
your student loan debt.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
But they can give away billions.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Watch the pardons that are about to come.
January 20th, oof, all right,coming up after the break we'll
get into what's going on inSouth Korea and that part of the
world that we need to payattention to.
It's martial law, it's, I don'tknow, getting rid of their
president, and so we're going totell you why that's relevant.
And then Asia gets to ask meI'm in the hot seat with you,
(30:52):
the listener, for two scams anda slap.

Currently, impeachmentproceedings are in place for

is not coming, and so thisstory was really, really

know that it can actually getworked out by the people that
are in charge.
