Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to season fifty two, episode
five of DIR Daily S eight Geist for Friday act
Over twelve, two thousand eight team and names Jack O'Brian aka,
I don't usually do this lest I'm Jack or O'Brien,
but I'm both right now. I gotta be talking about that, guys,
and I'm thrilled to be joined as always buy my
co host Mr Miles Greg. Things are gonna get easier,

(00:25):
oh Master, things will get cider, so Greg, Yeah, we'll
get it together and we'll get it all done some Greg,
when your head is much cider and that is from
hannahs altis coming through with that. Ak Ana Good thinks
that a game. Well, We're thrilled to be joined by

(00:46):
pop Culture Collaboratives Senior Fellow on Comedy for Social Change.
She's also a hilarious comedian and writer and co host
of the award winning podcast Good Muslim, Bad Muslim Zara
nor Bosch. No no, no, no no, I don't know
words or what do you said? I thought you were

(01:06):
doing ray J Wait a minute, anyway from the early
two thousand's oh wait what pop culture Collaboratives Senior Fellow
on Comedy for Social change. You are probably by far
the most team guests we've had with that title. I agree.
What is the pop culture collaborative and fun? I asked.
The pop culture collaborative works at the intersection of activism

(01:28):
and Hollywood specifically, Oh wonderful, okay, And yeah, they're basically
they're changing the game. Okay, what's an example, like, do
you guys write articles? What do you do? So? I
am a fellow, which means that I get money to
do things like change the field of comedy. Oh nice,
by March by March. If it's not, it's not, it fired,

(01:52):
money gone, And it's by appearing on shitty, second rate
podcasts encouraging them to do better the first step. And
there are multiple fellows working on multiple projects. For example,
one of our fellows, may El Hassan posted yesterday an
incredible report on one hundred years of Muslim representation in Hollywood,

(02:16):
which no good right, nothing, just celebration after celebration of
after all. And I think they also worked with some
of the like moving parts and pieces and organizations that
brought the activists working on the Me Too movement to
the Golden Globes, with the actress that were nominated there

(02:38):
were a lot of organizations that were involved, and I
think they were somehow a part of that coordination. We
ain't doing ship John. I know you guys have an
incredibly important podcast that is the first stop to my
question question, So for you change in comedy, like, how
do you look at that in terms of your fellowship?
How are you approaching that exact There are a lot

(02:58):
of parts and pieces that I have to like take
into account, right, But one of the things that I'm
focusing on is that like scene up, comedy has no
genre and no rubric. We have like set up, punchline
and that's it. But it's actually like building context, establishing context,
generating anticipation, delivering a surprise, and leaving a lingering impact.

(03:23):
Like there's so many parts and pieces that nobody ever
thinks about that actually makes it easier to craft a joke.
And then on top of that, you have, like you know,
reviews of comedy that are like that was or wasn't funny, right,
which like we never would do with a book. You
would never say like it was a good book, it's
good or bad end of New York Times review, you know,

(03:47):
And thank you for the Bible. My favorite genre of
comedy is have you seen this? Have you heard about this?
This is why you guys are my first stop seeing
this input. Yeah, well have you seen this? Have you
heard about this? One? All right, we're gonna get to
know you even better in a moment. But first we're
gonna tell our listeners what we're gonna be talking about.

(04:09):
We're gonna start off with a good old fashioned Google
trend search, just checking out what the Internet's hive mind
is thinking and asking about. Right now, we're gonna talk
about that horrifying meeting I guess you would call it
press appearance by Kanye in the Oval Office. We're gonna
talk about the Georgia governor's race and just how that's

(04:31):
totally on the up and up. That was sarcasm. We're
gonna talk about Trump's call in to Fox and Friends,
Melania doubling down on her title of Queen of Hot Takes,
and more. But first, Sara, what is something from your
search history that is revealing about who you are? Okay,
this is a really unfair question to ask in the morning.

(04:51):
I know, yeah, it's it's what we do. What we
do though, you know, romantic porn specifically, so that something
from last night. And that's why you're saying. Okay, and
so to find porn you just google it. You don't
know a porn hub or something to go romantic. Okay,
you porn with Damny yesterday. Yeah that's true. Yeah, so
was ex videos also as a ex vidios. I don't

(05:14):
even know about xt video. See, you guys have like
porn hub. I like because they do stuff with their data.
They tell the world about what's going on through porn searches. Oh,
that's that's useful with romantic porn. That's like stuff where
people like kiss and you believe that these are people
in love rather than like some bizarre situation involving someone
doing a pizza delivery or something. I would be totally

(05:36):
down with a pizza delivery. Here's the thing. Oh, and
I have to say this because like I'm in activist
land like you, porn doesn't pay equitably. I feel like
that's yeah, right, like to stream the content you're saying,
there is like equitable paying porn out there that like
does actually do a good job by sex worker? Yeah? People,

(06:01):
who where do you find that you have to subscribe
to the site? Right? Isn't that part of the thing
is it like a Spotify model where they're getting giving
people cut based on all of these things stand between
me and orgasm. And I'm still working on a better
citizen of the world so that I have these answers.
But okay, I have to filter with romantic porn just

(06:23):
so that I can watch something that treats women well.
Like and I don't even like the kissing all that
might like I usually fast forward past that, but like,
I also don't like to see like woman like hurt y. Yeah,
you know, kills my mood a little bit. And also
like you know, I'm not into the rougher style. Yeah,
I am thirty eight. The gel in my spine is

(06:47):
you know, disappearing slowly happen when yeah, it is. It's
the thing. And then when I explain a lot about
how I've been feeling lately, see, okay, when you take steps,
do you feel the impact? Yeah? Hit from your heel.
You can just hear the grinder net brings my vertebras,

(07:08):
so like being thrown around in a room. I'm just like, well, right,
you're like someone like can I put your feet up? Yeah?
Go down on you. Romantic porn, that's romantic porn. Yeah,
I like it. Um. I only like porn where it's
just the kissing and then the camera moves up to
the you know, window, and there's slow dissolved to them

(07:28):
in bed afterwards having a cigarette. That's my kind of porn.
Like ABCPT Blue has some wild scenes his era Hayes
Code era nineteen fifties six scenes. Oh is that? Oh
that was like the rules. Yeah, you could kiss cloth
up tight closed lips and like moving your head around
and then pan up to the set of curtains. So

(07:51):
you guys, you needed to watch way more soap operas.
Oh do they do that to be like softcore? Practically?
Do they get heavy or is it transition and stuff
like are you seeing a little bit of action? Like
I mean in comparison to a blustery window, it's a
lot more going on. General hospital was pretty hot. I
was more young and the restless person. The amount of sex,

(08:14):
according to the world's of fiction, that is happening in
hospitals is just so unsettling. Yeah, alright, what's something that's overrated?
Any and all investigations or news coverage about this administration
in any way, shape orful is a huge smoke screen. Okay,

(08:37):
so are you talking Mueller investigation. I guess that is
an investigation. Let's look at how much time we spent
on Kavanaugh. For one the entire time, it was very
clear to me and I think many people that it
mattered not at all because he was innocent. Right. Just wait,

(09:01):
what are you saying about Brett? What I'm saying about
Brett d You mean that it was a foregone conclusion
that he would be confirmed or that, Yeah, I think so.
I mean they even slipped him in. There were people
who were planning on you know, direct action protests to
like get in the way of traffic, you know, to
filibuster at traffic basically, and it didn't matter a lot.

(09:24):
They like they practically helicoptered him into the desk. And
then because there was an investigation, they were like, well, see,
this is what's making the voters hate us. That's a
one semantic thing. It was a background check, you know
what I mean, That's what the FBI was. Also, when
they were trying to defend themselves, they're like, yes, the
White House asked us to continue our background check, not
to investigate, because if that was a real, like criminal investigation,

(09:48):
would have maybe done more. But also, like the FBI
does have the ability to say this is complete bullshit,
but they don't have to walk around like middle management
in the show twenty four, you know, and I, I mean,
I don't understand why it's all working out, And then
Jack Bauer is like, do me back my daughter? Like,
I mean, it just it doesn't work that way, but
it does when it's necessary to generate buzz and a

(10:10):
smoke screen, Right, Get Bauer out of there, throw him
in prison. Uh, that was my impression of twenty four
middle management. Yeah, they well know, they just never believed
in him. Every time he would get himself into a situation,
they would always just be like, that's it, Bower, you're fired.
Get back here so you can give me your bedge.

(10:31):
I never really watched the show. Was he on Heroin
at some point? Yeah? Well, so he was held captive
by I think it was the Chinese actually, and they
hooked him on Heroin just to like kind of be like, yo,
you're too you're too effective that whole country and just
hooking Jack Bauer on always getting guys Jack cooked on heroin.

(10:52):
And that's my excuse. What's something you think is underrated, underrated,
everything you need to know about d stable as station. Okay,
so explain. We are in destabilization. Every running knows what
I'm talking about right now because we go through it
like every two years that the country is doing well

(11:12):
and then all of a sudden it's a circus and
nobody knows why. Oh you know, people with foreign influence
have an investment in your country failing. Uh. And that's
what's happening to us right now. And like all of
the things that we say that we're like, I never
thought blank would happen. I never thought blank would happen.
I never thought it's like government doesn't matter. That is destabilization,

(11:34):
and it's meant, the reason why it makes me so
angry that more people aren't talking about this is that
the whole point of destabilization is that it's polarizing, that
it makes you hate government, it makes you want to
see your government fall, and it also feels like a circus,
which is what it feels like right now, you know.

(11:56):
And that's that's the whole point. Is like it's a
the oldest trick, yeah, to make the scroll pretty much
so that country, kingdom, empire does itself in so when
the foreign invasion comes, I mean, I don't I don't
want to sound xenophobic, Like, what's a foreign invasion? Amazon?

(12:16):
You know what I mean? Finally having its win? Uh?
Then the job has largely been done for them. So
are you saying that America is going through destabilization? Absolutely?
Everybody should know more about destabilization. Where can you point
people to learn more about this? Just learn more about Iran?

(12:38):
I mean, it's destabilization is very easy to look up,
google it, and then all of a sudden it will
start to feel like it's talking about your life, right,
and just start there, like this is the one place
where I would be like, maybe start with Wikipedia, Like
I wouldn't literally anything else, including prime numbers, but destabilization.

(12:59):
Start with Wicked. It's like it's just a good seg
way to the myth. How do you know I was
going to ask about a myth? That's crazy? What is
the myths? What's what's something that people think is true
that you know to be false? Alright, Iran is not
your enemy. Iran is your only hope. Run is the
obi Wan. I actually I don't really know anything about

(13:24):
foreign policy, buts I'm Iranni and I have an investment. No.
The reason why I say that is because it's very
interesting to me how like the Middle East is playing
out in all of this. Number One, that we don't
hear about the Middle East anymore. Have you guys noticed that,
like what happened to ISIS, right, that's how much ISIS

(13:49):
is talked about. ISIS just dropped, just like I think
there was like one line in the news at one
point that was like and we solved it, as if
they're like, hey, we're done, yeah, just moved on. But
there's been multiple reports about Saudi Arabia support of ISIS
and Vladimir Putin support of ISIS. And it used to

(14:10):
be that like what we would watch was destabilization in
the Middle East. And so it's interesting to me that
now it's all about like what does Saudi Arabia have
a hold on it? Just like, well that's a shift
given it all to a kingdom. Um, So you know,
I'm just putting it out there. Iran uh and friends

(14:32):
with Iran. It's the only other country there that's like
holding the opposition. Opposition is good Also because I noticed
what fans everybody is of a handmaiden's tail and that's Iran. Like,
if you're into it, just go check out the real deal.
There were real cloaks, real bonnets. And it's also really

(14:54):
unsettling and someone entertaining as an Iranian to like watch
and I'll play out because the election of the Supreme
leaders in Iran, you know, they're extraordinarily right wing politic
when it came to anything related to women, you know,
and watching that take hold despite the populaces desires, you know,

(15:16):
like of Iran voted for reform and yet you know,
um so just you know, just putting some ran plugs
out there. Well, yeah, no, it's getting when we have
Nicki Haley doing like cool book reports pointing at like
things and like that's from Iran, so we have to
go to war now. And you have people like John
Bolton who are like their singular focus is trying to

(15:37):
vilify them by any means possible. Oh my god. When
you said book report, actually my esteem went up. There's
a kind of report getting in front of the class
type thing. Remember like when they've they brought out that
missile piece and they're like, oh yeah, you see right there,
even though it looks like in my high handwriting, it

(15:57):
says made in Iran. So I think this is an
evidence for us to start looking that way. But yeah,
but yeah, we've talked before on the show about how
Margaret at would, before writing The Handmad's Tale, just researched
history of other country. It's like she like stole specific
I think she said all of the different details. It's
just sort of a collage of different details from history

(16:20):
of other countries, ripping off history many um, but yeah,
and Iran, Like look at pictures of Iran in the seventies.
I think people would be surprised to see like how
completely things changed their pent shift. Yeah, or just knowing
about like most of egg and how you know, we're like, hi,

(16:41):
we're here to pretend that you don't want this person
anymore right now, already you're entering into territory I don't
actually know about. I just know that I want people.
Of course, No, no, I think it's important bran and romantic.
But yeah, the United States had a hand in man.
Yeah that it is like, yeah, it's like basic staple
Iran one oh one guys. But you know, I have

(17:02):
this unique relationship with my history where growing up in
the eighties as an Iranian like your parents did not
want you to know anything about politics, because my teachers
would ask me like at recess when I was like
in kindergarten, first grade, third grade, fifth grade, right like
and what do you think I'd be like like, I'm sorry,

(17:24):
I have glue all over my alright, let's check in
with the Google trend search real quick. Hurricane Michael is
still out here. The pictures are coming in from Mexico
Beach in Florida, which is where the hurricane made landfall,
and the photographs are just horrifying. It looks like a

(17:46):
bomb went off. Selena Gomez is recovering in a mental
hospital um and the story of how the breakdown came
about is something that I've heard about more recently, and
I'm one ondering if there's an actual maybe the Zeit
Gang can tell us about this, but if this is
like an actual, like there's a medical diagnosis for this.

(18:07):
So apparently she was, you know, hospitalized for lupus. She
has all sorts of health issues from lupus, and she
got a bad blood test result and they were like,
you're gonna have to stay and that caused her to
like have sort of a breakdown and I've heard of
that happening to people, where it's like, you just want
to get out of the hospital. You're so tired of
being in the hospital. The hospital is a terrible place

(18:29):
to be and you start to feel like you're a
prisoner there. But the test results are, you know, nonetheless
saying that it's unsafe for you to leave, so they
can't let you leave, and um, yeah, So anyways, she
then kind of had an emotional breakdown and is now
at a mental hospital, which good for her. There are
other celebrities who are not getting the mental health treatment

(18:52):
that they need, as we'll talk about shortly. But yeah,
so she is trending, and you know, all the stories
seemed to be her friends and family are like doing
the right thing and supporting her and asking for privacy.
So wow, who thought, Yeah, she has a support system
around her. Celebrity with some problems has a support system

(19:14):
around them, and not a circus around She's got a
great support system. One of her best friends gave her
her kidney, right, I want Selena Gomez his friends Jamie
Lee Curtis is trending. Uh, and I had to look
into this, why yogurt? No, It turns out Fox News
was trying to get a thing going yesterday they twooked

(19:38):
Jamie Lee Curtis wields firearm in new Halloween movie despite
advocating for gun control. M okay uh. This set off
a bunch of really great tweets like Jason Gilbert tweeted
Tim Allen murders Santa Claus in movie despite advocating for

(19:59):
celebration of Christmas, and just all sorts of other or like,
you know, Fox News presents no news despite being wow,
well you know all that culture warship, Like they really
have to find a thing to be, Like, I can't
believe she talked about advocated for gun control and then
they're like, how can we get her back? Oh, you're

(20:20):
holding a gun in a movie. I think that Fox
News just has the take of just like the worst
neighbor on the block, always just a neighbor that like,
no matter what, even if it doesn't make sense to say,
they have to say it in that tone like, well, right,
should you really be chemically watering your lawn? I mean,

(20:41):
we are all doing it, but should we? Yeah? There's
this sort of disingenuous cultural commentary coming from the right
and from Fox News lately. So during the Kavanaugh hearing,
Molly Ringwold was like, yeah, there was some really fucked
up stuff. And my movies, like in one of the movies,
I think it's pretty in Pink or sixteen Candles, a

(21:04):
drunk girl is given to somebody as like here, have
fun with her, and it's just like considered cool. And
she was like that in retrospect, not all right? And
Fox News was like, oh, come on, what people can't
do like bad stuff in movies? What so now all
movies are just going to have to be people sitting

(21:24):
around and peacefully discussing their problems. It's just like, I
feel like all the Fox News should just be that impression.
Come on, come on, like now it matters how the
populace votes. Come on, now we care about racism. We
come on now, like you care about who's your Supreme
Court justice at all? Like you need to come on,

(21:46):
Oh come on. But anyways, do we have to explain
why that's stupid that movies have points of view and
characters within them. This out loudest screw. It's very frustrating,
and I think it's funny like this notion that like
Molly Ringwald and Jamie Lee Curtis are like in charge

(22:08):
of movie yes, right, Hello, it is literally my understanding
of movies when I was like four, like when I
first saw and I was like, I don't like him
because he's mean it's like yo like that. But you
guys are grown ups who are actually covering the culture
for a large portion of Americans, So try harder Fox

(22:32):
News and Kanye is also trending, and that is, of
course who I was referring to when I said that
some celebrities need people around them to look out for them,
because he was seriously on some it was a rand
dude on the corner with a cardboard signed ship. Well
it was just sad, you know, Like he went to
the White House to have lunch with the President. There

(22:53):
was an agenda where they would talk things about, you know,
record high black employment and you know, curbing violence in
Chicago and there of course, and it was like Jim
Brown was next to him, and I mean, we're talking
about posting clips of it, but like it's just so
clearly somebody who is just all of his thoughts are disjointed.
He never at one point really offers a solution or

(23:16):
like a coherent or actionable point or about anything. Are
you talking about the president or talking sadly? And the
president for his entire administration and Kanye for this particular conversation,
he just went ten minutes. Yeah, Yeah, it was odd.
At moments Trump you could tell he seemed a little
like he wasn't it wasn't making sense to him, and

(23:37):
he was like at one point, remember he looked at
the other reporters like smiling like wow, okay, but yeah again,
this is like there was nothing about what he said
that made any real point. It was just it was
I don't know, it just felt bad to watch, and
it was so it was just really it was just
difficult to watch. And I have like a destabilization SoundBite
for every time I see it. Just yeah, the the

(24:00):
that's is that circus? I don't know that. Yeah, you're
kind of sounded like a jazzy like soft chee with
jazz hands, that romantic porn um. So how is this destabilization?
Just explain it to the listener, you know, having people

(24:21):
talk about whole pieces of the fabric of our society
and its construct who are rappers? And yeah, now he's
not even standing next to the president because also, you know,
the representation of African Americans by this administration has been
so good, right, yes, and yeah you bring him in.

(24:43):
And it's odd too, because Trump seems to think he's like, oh, yeah,
it's it's great for me and uh, the African American
voters to understand what I'm trying to do. And it's like,
my man, he's not moving the needle for you with
African American voters at all. If anything, you have your people,
and that's not really moving. I think for him to
think that somehow, I don't know what Trump thinks he's
getting out of bringing him in. I think it clearly

(25:05):
is he's like, well, look at the black guy. He's
had a magahet on. I'm not racist, And I think
that's like the optics of it are clearly all he's
using to just sort of rationalize, Yeah, that was great
and now I'll be doing great in the mid terms.
But it's a bad look to be the guy exploiting
a mentally ill person. I would just say, yeah, so,
but does he even know what's going on? Right? I Mean,

(25:25):
there are rumors that Donald Trump is going through dementia. What, Yeah,
they're they're there are doctors who are actually like putting
out pieces saying like he's displaying all of the signs
and his vocabulary shrinking. And yeah, even today he was
on Fox and Friends. We'll talk about that later, but
he couldn't even remember the names of candidates. He was
just like, yeah, there's a there's a manybody said, there's

(25:48):
a man running, and you're like, okay, huh, okay, we're
gonna take a quick break. We'll be right back, and
we're back. And as we get closer to the mid terms,

(26:11):
the upcoming election and November, more ship is coming out
that is somewhat concerning Miles. He were writing about the
Georgia governors. Yeah, well, Brian Kemp who's running against Stacy Abrahams,
who would be the state's first African American governor. They're
so they're in they're very tight race right now. And
Brian Kemp, he is he's the Secretary of State for

(26:33):
the State of Georgia right now, meaning he is though
be all end all when it comes to voting and
voter registration and letting people vote essentially. Uh. And now
a lot of people like, maybe you should step away
from that role since you are in an election and
you couldn't you're at the levels of people being able
to vote. And he's like, no, it's fine, I'm not
doing anything wrong, Like we just got rules and people
gotta follow him. Except now we're finding out that this

(26:57):
policy that he put forward, this exact match policy, which
basically dictates that like, if someone fills out a voter
registration form and it's off by a letter hyphen a
fucking tide on your name and it doesn't match what
the government has, sorry, Bronna, we're gonna toss out on
the pile and we're gonna have to get back to
you very soon. And the APE is reporting that there

(27:19):
is around fifty three thousand registration forms that are just
sitting on ice because of this law, probably mostly Irish people.
Right in my case, Brian, you forget to have an apostrophe.
I don't forget it. I just choose not to use
it sometimes because it sucks up, like in when it's
like going from a word doc to something else. What

(27:39):
about the like Scottish like McMillan, So it's probably capitalized
capital m then who knows. But right now they're saying
that seventy of these registration forms that are being held
are from black voters who would have thought, who thought?

(28:00):
You know, Brian Kemp has not had a good history
in terms of voter rights, Like he's been sued before
by voters rights groups. He even once Stacy Abrams had
a like a nonprofit group that had like the their
mission was to register people of color to vote, and
he launched an investigation into that group years ago. I
don't I don't know if that's, you know, to intimidate
them or something like that, but yeah, he this is

(28:21):
like his ship. And when you think about how close
this race is, I'd hate to think that fifty three
votes could swing an election or anything like that. But
it's a problem, and I think that more people need
to figure out what's going on or he needs to
do something about this. But as it stands, he is
doing a really good job of limiting people's ability to

(28:41):
vote right now, especially in a very important election that's
really close. And I've never had it explained to me
what being extremely careful about this ahead of an election,
Like what problem do they think they're solved? It's all
it's that it's they're just raising the fucking specter of
voter fraud, which is like not even a real issue.
But that's not actually like cause saying voter fraud, like

(29:02):
I mean, essentially what they're doing is completely illegal. They're
inhibiting people's right to vote. This. This is also where
I'm going to advocate for like another section, a new
segment to your podcast, just like how close are we
to becoming Iran? Just like that meter going as you
get closer with the election, because like in Iran, one

(29:24):
of the things that happened because destabilization was when Madina
Dudd first one, you know, after the people have voted
unanimously for reform, there was a they have a feminist
party in Iran, there was a candidate from the feminist
party in the cabinet, and then Medina Judge showed up
and all of that evaporated. And in the first round

(29:45):
of voting it sounded a lot like Trump's aftermath, where
people were like, who voted for this? What we think
Russia's involved? And then in the second round, the Iranian
me da when the votes came out, because people came
out in droves of the country votes, they call it

(30:07):
black Tuesday because everybody's you know, cloaked in black or
wearing black and is out voting at the voting booths,
and everyone knew it was they were getting him out,
and then the camera just as soon as the election
results come in, straight up pants to a field of flowers.
Wow in music place back and he's just magically back.

(30:33):
So like we should do like a running prediction. Yeah,
we just need to know what those levels are between
America and like so yeah, like how how full blown
gas lighting are they going to go? Yeah? I mean
it's every with every election and every action of this
administration and just and I think the government in general
this country, we've been on that slow path from the beginning.
So yeah, I don't know, we'll have to figure out

(30:55):
what those those notches are in the meter before they
just go straight back to Like it's actually not at
all about the name. We really just have been racist
this whole time. Like honestly, look, this candidate is African American.
I have a feeling a lot of people are going
to turn out, so we're going to have to try
and kneecap people of colored voting. So like like at

(31:18):
the booth, they're like, no, you better, yeah, that's right,
vote for Brian Camp. But it's so easy just to
throw their ballots out. Why would you need the crowbar? Yeah,
well that's man. They have their underhanded ways of staying
on top. But wait, well who knows. I mean, hopefully
enough people turn out that that won't be an issue,
but still I think definitely like their lawyers and d
c's from other voting voting rights groups who are like,

(31:40):
this has to be addressed, Like what then are we doing?
Like we get to sit here and act like this
isn't a fucking issue, but we'll see. I mean, what
what is the consequence, I don't know, go to a
Supreme court where you can go to a fate exactly,
and then and then they're gonna be like, hey, he's chill, dude, Briant.
He aimed a gun at a kid in a campaign ad,
so sign welcome to we ron, welcome to we run.

(32:05):
Uh well, all of this seems somewhat confusing, but fortunately
the President of the United States called into his favorite
TV show and talked for a long time, so I'm
sure he like explained all this right, Oh yeah, yeah,
it made sense of the made sense of everything. You know.
He called in and basically just rambled on about how, hey,
the Mueller thing it's oh so witch hunt and had

(32:27):
to do the thing again, and goes, actually Hillary colluded
with Russia to beat herself for some ship. It was
wacky the host or even like okay, because then he
started talking about Jeff Sessions, and Trump was talking about, ay,
maybe after mid terms, maybe I'll boot old legal Sniggles
asked to the curb and put an attorney general who

(32:47):
will fully just obstruct justice like I needed to be obstructed,
and also again admitting that he was thinking about obstructing justice,
but what are the consequences? And then he said something
about Devin Nounez to get the Medal of Honor um.
Now that's very confusing to me because the Medal of
Honor isn't that supposed to be a military award. From
what I understand, I've always seen that blue ribbon be

(33:11):
put around the neck of someone in the military. But yeah,
it's always the highest decoration for someone in the armed forces,
and he thinks Devin Nunez should get it. Well, yeah,
he's in a different kind of army. He's in the
MAGA Army. So he's the colonel. He's a street corner colonel,
a k spliff star and he's out here trying to
funk up all kinds of investigations and breaking the law

(33:32):
and just letting himself wrought by the soul. But yeah,
he said that, and then he ended really nice with
like someone like one of the hosts, can you wish
my dad a happy birthday? And he did, and then
they were trying to be like, all right, let's wrap
this up because you like literally, I said, okay, now
go run the country rather than talking to us for
however long I think it's almost an hour or something,

(33:54):
So you know, he he likes his favorite calling the show. Well,
Queen hot Take. We had King hot Take go on
Fox and Friends and Queen hot Take Milania has doubled down. Yeah,
I think we can just play this clip just just
you can hear the hottest fucking take of I could
say I'm the most bullied person on the world. You

(34:18):
think you're the most bullied person one of them if
you really see what people saying about me? Okay, I
mean sure, maybe I don't know if you are the
most bullied person on earth. I think yes, you've been
on the receiving end of a lot of anger. Also,
you don't get to leave you know detention center of

(34:42):
children in cages by known sexual abusers with a jacket
that says I don't care to you, and then be like,
I don't understand why i'm bullied. Let's well, I think
that's the whole thing is that, yeah, they're right, is
looking at criticism of their like a moral just shitty
actions as being violent or it's bullying when it's like

(35:02):
you're fucking around and we're calling you out, that's what
he's going on. We're not being like, oh, Rampaul, you're
fucking nose looks fucked up, right, you know what I mean.
It's like you're out here keeping for Russia and then
you're like one of the few senators that didn't sign
on to that letter that was like, oh we need
to actually reprimand Saudi Arabia. I don't know what's going
on Rampaul right now, but anyway, I feel like she

(35:25):
should just say what it is that she wants to say,
which is like people don't know their place. I will
be queen. Do you think she wants to be queen?
Do you think she wants to be like king with
absolute power? That's the only that's what he thought he
was winning when he won the presidency. I mean they're

(35:45):
both there, they're both participated in pageantry, right, Yeah, But
it's just funny to think, like the reports of like
on election night when they won, she just began sobbing
right right, and and I think he also was crying
like he was terrified, but then nvinced himself that he
could do it. And so this this just makes sense
of because her whole campaign has been no online bullying,

(36:08):
and what she meant is no saying shit about me online.
Just keep out of your mouth. Who cares if I
don't want to hold my husband's hand because it's nasty, right,
I don't know, you know that's hey, you know, if
you're the most bullied personal world, shout out to you.
I feel for you, But I think there are many
other people who are in much more vulnerable situations that
you could be shedding. Light up. But hey, put your

(36:29):
pith hat on the table when you do your fucking
interview and just look like the colonizer where you want
to be the only way she could have made me
somewhat sympathetic to that statement, as if she had then
followed up with, I mean, look who I'm sucking married too.
You think I don't get bullied every day like that guy,
But I want to have sex with just catching heat,
sucking up. Yeah. So you mentioned the well hot water

(36:54):
that Saudi Arabias. Um right now, um, if it's gonna
be hot, but yeah, it's it's something. So more and
more details are coming out. I mean it's still it's still.
The main detail is the bone saw, I think is
the main detail. So the most grim detail of it
all the murder of a Washington Post reporter. Yes, kahogi,

(37:15):
he went in then never came out. He's not in
there anymore. And people walked in with like a hit
squad shows up with bone saws and empty luggage and
boxes and shut up. Yeah, and then they left with
bone saws and boxes and luggage, and the reporter is

(37:37):
no longer in there, like fuck, Like intelligence intercepts like
and oh they do this ship when they want you
to know the laws of physics say that that dude
got murdered and cut into pieces, like that's just the
only physical explanation unless they have some sort of transportation
beam right right, in which case we should also find

(37:57):
out about that because that was that's not the case,
because they had a forensic plethologist as part of this
fifteen man hit squad that came and they're like, let
me see your looking. So you're here for thirties two
hours and your luggagees a bones okay, welcome whatever. And
you guys came on private jets from Saudi Arabia okay,
and you're leaving tonight. Yeah, it's just it's just one

(38:17):
of those things where now and you know, again, Trump
was asked, they're like, have you talked to them? And
he was like, you know, Jared and John Bolton talked
to Mohammed bin Salmon and he and like Mohammed so
literally like, oh, I don't know what happened. Yeah, that's crazy,
and they're just like they're just acting real like brand
new about it. And then we asked Trump, it's like, well,
something should happen, right, and he's even like, I mean,

(38:38):
it doesn't look good. He admitted that much, but then
he said, but you know, we have this deal with them,
and there's a lot of money involved because we're selling
them weapons basically, and he doesn't want to funk up
this like fifty billion dollar arms deal with Saudi Arabia
by making it hot for them by holding them accountable.
I don't know that he actually has the power to
make anything happen for them. I don't I don't know

(39:00):
that the actually like yeah, underneath there, I don't know
that he's in charge of much when it comes to
But I wonder if we're looking at all the facts,
I mean, did somebody opperate was the report? Key, Oh,
that's a good point, Yeah, or like one of those yeah,
like from portal one of the people like maybe there
was some flu powder some evidence of flu powder on
the scene, also very possible. Yeah, almost all of the

(39:25):
terrorists who did nine eleven were from Saudi Arabia, and
yeah that we were we were cool with that at
that time. So there weren't many consequences that they saw.
So I doubt that this is going to cause much
problems for them. But yeah, well, also when you have
Jared Kushner, who's like the same age as mohammedan Salman,
being like, hey, you're can you be in charge of

(39:46):
talking to him? I'm starting out the Middle East guy
who doesn't know how to foreign policy. And you know,
there was a there was a report like early this
year with Mohammed Bean Salm was bragging. He's like, yeah,
I got Jared Kushner in my pocket. Yeah, He's like,
what they're gonna do? And now you're seeing it, it's
just super aggressive. Before I'm sure it was fine when
they were doing all their human rights violations within their
own borders, and we were fine turning a blind out

(40:09):
of that. And even now it's like, oh and then
Trump even said, oh, I don't think he's an American citizen.
So it's like, okay, there you go, there you have it. So,
I mean, they are trying to prove a point. And
the point they're trying to prove is look what we
can do without getting in trouble, right, And that seems
to continue to be the point, like, hey, check out,

(40:29):
you know your new Supreme Court justice. Look at what
we can re enact. I saw a movie. But maybe
that's why Milannia is like I'm the most bullied person.
Maybe like they cut out. Maybe she was like this country,
that man, this, they like cut all of it out,
so she's just like it's not right right right? I

(40:50):
mean yeah, And it's funny when the Jack the way
you had it was talking about Bob Corker coming in
and him, you know, wanting to admonishing the outias and
Lindsey Graham suddenly finding his moral backbone again. Uh. And
you know, it was one of those things where it's
a gesture what will happen? Probably not much, especially when

(41:11):
the president is being so transparent about what his actual
you know, what, what the real stakes are for him,
or how he looks at the whole situation. I know,
it definitely seems like one of those situations where he's
saying out loud the part that people usually only think
like yeah that like, well this would be bad for
us financially. Well, look, we we closed a huge deal.
We're trying to get a hunter ten billion up front,

(41:31):
which I don't think they we still have or the
government still has. What do billions mean anymore? I've lost
track bigger than millions, But like I don't even have
an impressive gauge, like you know, a gauge of impressiveness.
I no longer have, like what what like what I
think the justin timber Lake said that the transformation is

(41:56):
a million is cool, but you know what's really cool
is a billion. And I'm talking like in the billion realm,
we have like hundreds of billions, tens of billions, right,
when does it mean something like? I don't, I don't know.
It all depends on if if money is your god,
then it means something, right. But yeah, I don't worship
the dollar like I used to, like I used to,

(42:18):
you know, I wrap videos had me sucked up, right,
But I mean, it doesn't take that much money to
impress Trump. There's this experiment that Spy magazine did in
the eighties where they sent all the richest people in
New York checks for like they started at a hundred
dollars and then went down to fifty dollars and then

(42:40):
just to see how cheap the richest people in New
York are and who would like keep cashing that check,
taking the time to cash the check. And the only
person who cashed the check all the way down to
like two cents was Donald Trump. Get out, yeah, because
he's a broke boy. You just you love that money,
cashing in, cashing in. All right, We're going to take

(43:00):
another quick break. We'll be right back, and we're back.
And a couple other things that are trending right now.
Dal Jones is trending because the market continues to be

(43:22):
unstable it's as superproducer Nick Stump said yesterday, it was
whipsawing all over the place. Did you say my favorite word, unstable?
And a story that was just breaking as we recorded
this is that Facebook has been removing hundreds of influential

(43:43):
political accounts. Basically, they're being accused of doing what Russia
did for the two thousand sixteen election, but in the
run up to the mid terms. But they are like
Americans or groups of Americans who are doing this. So
it gets into questions abou out like First Amendment law. Okay,
I have not to to my own horn. I'm far

(44:05):
from influential sols. Now blow it at horn. I can't
get my freaking account to work Facebook account because it
does the like bouncy blankie thing, like have you guys
had this issue? And I don't really use Facebook, Like
a couple of my friends have had this issue, And
now I'm wondering if it's like at all related because

(44:26):
my Persian conspiracy brain, because it's like I haven't been
able to post. Were you running like an account with
like or moderating a group or something like that that
was like groups? Yeah, they all say radical, Is that
an issue? They all say, Muslim, is that a problem?
From my understanding, I'm just going to back out of
the room, though, just to be safe. Where are you going?

(44:48):
I just want to know to the bathroom to cry. Wait,
So they're just getting rid of American ran like political
accounts that it could be like the union union workers
for better work. They've been doing this. Like I had
a couple of friends who had shows like man Hater's
comedy show. They're they're like page got shut down and
they had to for really like and then I had

(45:09):
another friend who like posted men are trash. Oh, I
remember that whole fiasco. You gotta shut down. Her account
got frozen for a while. Like, So it's interesting that
that's one kind of politic. Yeah right, And it's not
like when Jamie Loftis gets death threats in a private
mental group or something. Yeah. Well, hey, man, I wonder

(45:30):
if they're just sort of like they're so bad at
trying to figure out their problem with fake news that
they're just like just fucking sanitize the whole fucking like
they don't even have like the will or the know
how to properly address their their major problem on the platform.
That they're just like all right, well, now you guys
don't get nice things, right, don't get anything. But then
that has to run into some kind of like those
are real issues. This is like an issue now though

(45:50):
if you're kind of trying to stifle people's ability to
express their politics, even on the right of the left.
Is if it's not like violent disinformation, I don't see
what the issue is, right, Yeah, but that's what it
has to be, disinformation. I think they're accusing them of that.
And but then the people on the right are going
to be like, well, how do you define misinformation? So
they're saying, oh, so Kenye was wrong when he said

(46:12):
the Democrats created Okay, so Jamie Lee Hurdis can just
have gun on, come on, come on, come on. So
our office this morning is talking about Lebron. James Bron
on Wednesday had his first not his first appearance as

(46:33):
a as a Laker, but it was a preseason game
where he looked really good and finally Superproducers Sophie Lichterman
was excited about. She was like, I was thinking for
the first time that this could be a good thing
for the Lakers because she's a Kobe stand and she
is in that in that group of Lakers fans who
who think that there's like some sort of conflict between

(46:57):
liking Kobe and liking Lebron just because Lebron better than
Kobe and dissonant. Yeah, there's also that, but also a
thing we're just learning other than that Lebron is still
good at basketball shocking Laker fans is that he's apparently
that cool dad who lets his kids drink. He said

(47:17):
that he his kids are super mature, and he was like,
they drank wine. Yeah, they're eleven and fourteen. So I mean,
I don't know a lot of people are like I
think took it immediately because they want to vilify him
as like these kids are drunk off wine all day, right,
you know, like and I don't know if it's more
like the European angle where yeah, I was gonna say, like,
you know, every kid in France, right, and like even

(47:39):
my mom, like you know, she traveled out in Europe.
When I was a kid, I would be like, I
want to taste your wine, like yeah, whatever, you're not
gonna like it. And I didn't like drinking the foam
off my dad's beer or some ship that wasn't like
fucking twisted at four years old, Bret sipping the foam
off at daddy's beer. But you know, I think I

(47:59):
would like to know what the amounts are before we
have any judgment cutting. I also do wonder, like what
are the goals as a rich parent? You know what
I mean? Like do you do you want to be like, hey,
like this is how rich dad is. Get drunk. You
want to know how good we're doing. Get drunk, drive
death's car if they can do anything to us. Um, yeah,

(48:23):
it's interesting. There are those parents who are like the
cool parents who everybody drinks at their house. That's different though, right,
that's the games like Saudi Arabia. This mean everybody gets
drunk at their house. What well, I think everywhere else
not here, guys go wild. Okay, I'll turn my back

(48:45):
to everything, right, But I don't know, yeah, like that's right,
Like I don't know parents who are just like I'd
rather have my kids get super twisted at home, right,
then go out somewhere else and do it. Like there's
an argument of like, you know, you can demystify like
the taboos around alcohol if early on kids realized you
can responsibly drink or whatever. But like, I don't know
about the ship. How do you feel about those parents,

(49:07):
because like I always hear those parents in response to
their kid, But then I always wonder what it's like
for parents whose kids hang out with that kid that
there was a dad who's like, you drunk at my house? Right, Yeah,
I understand. I think it's just more like sort of
it's the fear based parenting where they're like, what's better
here than it's just some party in Woodland Hills, which

(49:28):
I knew people like that. I don't know. I think
that can that's a slippery slope a little bit. Did
you guys go to high school parties? Were you those? Yeah? Yeah,
high school parties? Uh yeah. There were some razors and
there were some The ragers were always at the house
where the parents were cool with the rager happening. Yeah, exactly,
which was wild. They were always the kickbacks were for
you know, my parents had a wedding come through, you

(49:50):
know what I mean. That was the kickback the rager.
It was like at home. Girl and I'm gonna say
her name, Kati san Felippo's house. Her mom was there.
Shout out to Shawn Nato, Cindy Nato. She was sucking
out there being like, you guys need more blah blah blah.
But like, yeah, I get that. But again, those kids,
I don't know, I mean, not all of them ended
up odd, but I think, yeah, I know, like I

(50:12):
know a couple of parents who were like the cool
parents who let the parties happen at their house and
their kids ended up in rehab. But then you know,
it's not It's not always that way, and I know
plenty of uh kids with really strict parents who ended
up in rehab. These are like all, these are all

(50:32):
the reasons that my dad and mom, growing up as
like devout Muslim parents, were like, you will not have friends,
right exactly, we don't want you have ideas. Did you
say you didn't go to any rangers? None, Well unless
you count the sleepover where we watched The Shining and
I was the only one that stayed up Like everyone

(50:53):
was asleep, yeah, because everyone falls asleep during that movie
and then like wakes up to all the blood right right,
that's usually in that elevator. But I was like, I
will not sleep. I barely get out of the house.
I'm enjoyed every moment. Uh, let's talk about Little Caesar's,
you guess because they've been in the news for a
couple of reasons lately. Yeah. Well first, yeah, on Twitter. First,

(51:15):
they had a very unfortunate photo op where somebody, a
manager of a Little Caesar's, was spotted, uh pushing a
cart of de journo into the back of the Little Caesar's. Yeah,
that was not straight, not a good look. And little
a Little Caesars come like, which, which which location is this?
And I was like, you have to pay me and
I'll tell you, but it turns you up. Guys, he's

(51:37):
going to get hired to work for this administration. You
need information that will be beneficial to you, you can
pay me for that. But apparently someone did a deep
dive and found out it was at a Walmart and
the coolers like at the Walmart were malfunctioning, so they
had to throw out a lot of those de journo pizzas.
And what they were trying to do was move that
stock out of that with one freezer and move it

(51:59):
into another one that was in the back where the
like the Little Caesar's was so like it wasn't They
weren't serving as we thought in the most twisted capitalistic
fantasy that you know they were just serving was out
the Little Caesar's that it wasn't even know the difference
between those two also a right now right, so many
free ads wild mean, how would you know the difference? Yeah,

(52:22):
would you know? And that's what we tested on today's show.
Everyone knows the superior quality of Little Caesar's pizza. Pizza. Now,
this story is interesting because, uh, you know, we we
we talked about fast pizza all the time when the show,
at least three times a week. I would say, because
we're very invested. But there was a Little Caesar's location
that we found out in Fargo, North Dakota that was

(52:44):
giving away. Like they found that they realized someone was
going through their dumpsters, like during the when the restaurant
was closed, and then the next day they posted a
sign that said, to the person going through our trash
for their next meal, you're a human being and worth
more than a meal from a dumpster. Please come men
during operating hours for a couple of slices of hot
pizza and a cup of water. No charge, no questions
asked those Little Caesars. I will buy from them forever.

(53:07):
This was a franchise franchise owner in North Dakota, and
apparently since they posted that, they have given away over
one forty two slices of pizza to needy people, which
is amazing. But again, I would I would say this
is another story of late stage capitalism, sheaved in a
feel good story where this person is having to pick
up the pieces because there are people who are neighbors.

(53:29):
I mean, this is our lives right now. Is where
we're talking about, like people with billions and billions of
dollars and then we're like, thank you for the pizza,
thank you for that little slice, sir. That is a
lot of hungry people. Yeah, well it was over many
years and who knows, you know, if there are a
lot of people are doing good in the commuters and
Trump is going to institute a rations box, right, yeah,
and it's going to include a slice, one slice, and

(53:51):
it might be rotten as funk by the time just because.
But it's interesting too, is like we're talking about I
don't know if we talked about this past, but Mike Ilitch,
the guy who is the founder of Little Caesar's, he
was like he did a lot for the city of Detroit.
Some people you know, they say he was did a
lot of land speculation that didn't help. That's true, But
another like little known stories that he was like paying

(54:12):
Rosa Parks's bills for like a long time to yeah,
and just was sort of like, you know, she had
moved to Detroit and she had been like robbed at
one point, and he's like, let's get her into another apartment.
Some people sort of nitpicked the story and say like, well,
it wasn't for a decade, because most of the stories
are like he paid her rent for a decade. Others
like it was probably nine years and with a group

(54:32):
of people who paid. But but the bottom line is Mike,
the founder of Little Caesars, did step up to help.
It wasn't a decade. Then, I prefer Papa John. Yeah,
the man was really standing up for Purple of Color. Yeah,
but you know, I feel good story that is really
though just a late stage capitals. Some store, you guys
ever had the pizza that tastes like Spaghettio's sauce is

(54:55):
the meat is the like tomato sauce which pieces that
that's like like frozen pizza. I feel like tastes like that. Yeah,
that's just like watery red water for pizza sauce. I
just got like really nostalgic for it. But you can't
remember what kind of pizza that was. No, it was
like a box pizza is like a frozen one and
it tastes baron. I thought it was because the red

(55:17):
baron was like the trap tridash that you can get
like five boxes for a dollar or something. I feel
like everyone had that like tangy citric acidy, like we
call that ummy. You might call that might taste like
your licking batteries, but the aftermath that is what we

(55:38):
call it is actually late stage capitalism America. Zara. It

(56:24):
book dot com, Zara comedian And is there a tweet
you've been enjoying? I mean I've I've been loving all
the retweets of my friend Maya Hassan's report, Oh yeah,
on Muslims in Hollywood dating back a hundred years. That's
been pretty rad. I've been I've been following that. Go

(56:44):
retweet that. Yeah, go retweet that. Miles Where can people
find you? Follow you? Oh? You can follow me on
Twitter and Instagram at miles of gray And a tweet
I like, is so one? Someone took video I hate
to bring up Kanye West to give it. Someone took

(57:05):
video of Kanye in the White House and at one
point he pulled up his phone because he said, I
want to show you a gift of a plane that
I'm designing with Apple. It's called the Iplane. He literally
said this, and when he pulls up his phone, they
zoom in and they do his like l m ao.
Kanye's iPhone password is zero zero zero zero zero zero
zero because he just does like the wild zero touch.

(57:26):
I don't you know, I feel like when you have
a password, don't think of a password, don't just do
all ones or all zeros. Give yourself a solid password
because you know your data is you know, precious. Before
I talk about a tweet that I've been enjoying, I
just want to say shout out to at Alex Schmidty
Schmidty the clan he is. I've been telling you guys,

(57:48):
he is a dangerous assassin all along. Dude, super smart,
and now he is proving it to the world by
fucking dominating Jeopardy. It's crazy. Last three nights, Jeffy Jeopardy
is still on and this dude who I used to
work with at cracked, just very quiet, unassuming, just went

(58:09):
out there and has been demolishing people. It's scary. It
is because I'm like, I've talked to this dude, right,
what does he know about? It feels weird when you
meet somebody who has that much knowledge that they don't
reveal to you. I mean, he's very intelligent. That was
never in doubt, but then you go he watched him
on Jeffary, Like, motherfucker, what has been going on with you?
Like he has glasses, we get it, He's got the brain.

(58:31):
Check out the big brand on the clam. Also, he
got a question wrong about clams, and I was like, dog,
that's the nickname that I randomly gave you. Respect. Anyways,
tune into Jeopardy. Watch Alex just assassinate these other And
he also doesn't like you could tell he likes sort
of feels a little bit bad for the people whose

(58:52):
scores he's doubling. Uh but I mean he feels bad.
I don't know, he's just like it was last night's
last nice was like super embarrassing. He wagered zero dollars
on Final Jeopardy because it was like impossible for him
to lose. That's a flex. If you you went negative,
you're a whole amount. That would be the super flex.

(59:14):
And then you're like, and I still got the fucking question.
My joke is that he's a heartless assassin who enters
every room he walks into cock first. But the truth is,
like he's such a nice person that I bet like
part of him feels bad that he's like beating people
that badly. Hey man, you know you've got that, you've
got the knowledge. But in an educational way, don't all

(59:36):
men walk cock first? When if you have an inverted penis, right,
that's a thing or micro penis, Well, the thing is Alexai.
He has priapisms, very painful some tweets I've been enjoying
your son tweeted person it smells like updog in here
me always too embarrassed to ask questions? Yeah, Uh, I

(01:00:05):
love that literary how that lit hub. Iron Rand's Atlas
Shrug was published sixty one years ago today and since
then has served as an excellent way to weed out
potential romantic partner. Uh. Love that. And finally, Doug Exeter
twote super genius voice. Uh. The Nazis were left wing

It's like lo fi hip hop. So if you like
