Speaker 1 (00:12):
Hello, and welcome to Mini number one hundred finally.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Oh my god, it's crazy. It hasn't happened sooner. I guess. Well,
we took a brief fatus accidentally.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
These things happen anyways. Yeah, So this is our hundredth mini.
But fun fact, if you count the bonus episodes, it
might be one oh four because we did four bonus
episodes before we started doing minis, and then we started
the story times and movie nights. But minis were like
the OG. So basically, for the hundredth mini, we're gonna
(00:46):
give a breakdown of all the other minis based only
on the episode's summaries, because I was not about to
listen to all the.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Fucking Okay, some of this you had more detail than
just the titles, and I was like, damn, had she
not so much? Did she go back and listen? That's crazy,
as if I would not.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
I do not prep that much. Sorry, guys. It's based
on the the descriptions and what I remember, and I
also figured we'd chip in whatever we remember too, so
some honor I mentioned. So the bonus episodes, they they
were about. The first one was Patty Hurst, the second
one was the Stanford Prison Experiment. The third was Debbie Mackle.
(01:23):
I remember she was the inspo, well not inspo but
like looking for Alaska.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
But like, no, that's the lovely Bones actually, so.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
That's what I meant. Sorry, lovely bones.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
So Patty Hurst because she was mentioned in that book
about Squeaky Yes, uh, Stanford prison experiment, because the Lord
of the Flies. Debbie Mackle because of the lovely Alaska.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
God, damn it, such a different lovely bones. Lovely bones.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah, Debbie Mackle was a poor murdered child, not some
teen with inks mannic Pixie.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Dream Girl was about looking for a lot, because that's
yes THEO or was it?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
No, Twilight was Mary Sue.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Yeah, Twilight was Mary Sue. That was an actual mini
So we will talk about that too. But okay, do
you want to be even or odds.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
I'll be odds. So I'll start our first mini ever.
I did it on the Titan which is a book
that predicted the Titanic fourteen years before it happened.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Number two was Edgar Allan Poe, the og Emo kid.
You also talked about some death conspiracies with him, so like,
that's fun. Also, I figured that you would want to
be the odds. So like some of these I've written
like for each of us, just.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
You know, oh perfect. Yes. Number three Iselda Fitzgerald who's
the wife of was called him JK. Fitzgerald. You know
Fitzgerald and her husband plagiarized her and also did she
go into a mental institute.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
I think she threw herself down as the stairs, so
maybe probably Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
I think she ended up going into a mental hospital.
She had a rough time. Rough time.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
The description for that episode is maybe the dumbest one
we've ever.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Been, so probably once they're dumb.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
It's literally like Zelda, you're gay for Hemingway and stole
my books. It it's something really dumb. And then it's
like he says something and that it's like Zelda throws
herself down the stairs like it's we didn't It's funny,
I think, but it's domb.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yeah, they did have a her husband was They were drama.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
That's what I remember. Okay, Next one Shakespeare conspiracies because
maybe he didn't write all of his stuff because according
to some people, poor people can't be talented, so there
was some drama behind that.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
They really do be down my guy. They doubted him
strange literary deaths. I remember I did this right before
Morbid did their episode of the same title, and I
was like, okay, got me some Apparently three did we
only talk about three authors at least three.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
In the butt Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Died weird. I don't remember which ones they were, but.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
It's in it's in the description. But I they're not
authors that like.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I know, they're not like big names. Yeah, they're I
think foreign mostly.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah. Number six Brief History of Horror, which was mostly
just a recapit but Wikipedia page, as most of the
genre ones are, it do be like that.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Seven is the Marquis de Sade, the guy who invented sadism,
and he sucked. But he was also in the Bastille prison,
I think during the breakout. So that's school if I
remember criting.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
I don't know. Maybe then we had the truth about
Amineville because the Dafayos did lie, and running to Fail
sucked a lie.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Didn't lie. Ryan to fail killed?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Oh yeah, sorry, not the defail killed.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
His family to fail over to fail. Also, I think
lied about why.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
He murdered his whole ast family, but he lied about
ghosts and stuff when really he was just an awful,
terrible guy who killed his family.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Yeah, the family couldn't lie they were murdered. Yes, Mary Sue,
we're back at it because that Yeah, Twilight, it's just
a girl who has nothing going on that you project
yourself onto because fanfic.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yep. Then we got Ben Franklin murderer.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
This one was my favorite. I remember all the details.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Yeah I don't, but you know, maybe he was Jack
the Ripper. He wasn't just a founding father. Okay. I
love conspiracies about.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Lived in a house where later on they found a
bunch of bones under But also a doctor lived in
that house, So maybe he was just had dumb bodies,
you know.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Or maybe that's what Ben wants you to think.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
He probably didn't tell me one, but like there was
a lot of bones under his house.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Okay, Okay, who knows. He was a crazy little slit.
He could have been doing anything.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
He really could have. Oh this one. Manifesto's not the
bad kind, just the art in literature kind, because there
was some fun ones. People don't do them the same
way they used to. Okay, Manifesto has got a bad rap,
but they used to be cool and for our movements.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Bring back good manifestos.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Stop putting your manifestos on your fucking four jan Yeah,
don't want it about why you're in in cell?
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Okay. Number twelve was about Jane Austen, who was obviously
an author, but also she was a girl who accomplished
a whole lot in a time when girls couldn't accomplish
a whole lot. So like, we love it, girl power.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Do be an icon. Malcolm Gladwell our most popular mini.
By the way.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
That's so I meant to look that up too and
figure out how far that's why.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Are the most listener listeners listens? Malcolm god is popular mini.
He was the fastesting in Canada. Good for him, I know. Yeah.
All I remember from this mini is the stop and
risk stuff. That's because I remember not liking him. He
has recently apologized for that view, so I'll give him that.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Okay. We love people that learn, Okay. Next, we had
Sir Terry Pratchett. He was the author of the Discworld series.
If you all forgot, he was a super cool guy
and he got knighted by the Queen for his work
in literature, which like, damn, okay, that's cool.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Yeah, the dead Queen so Nicholas Sparks. Yes, well, yeah,
but now she's dead. Nick Sparks never met the dead
queen in as far as I know, But I saw
something about him recently.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Makes sense. He's still writing copious amounts of books.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
I'm sure. Yeah, I said something weird about him. I
probably send it to you on Instagram if I saw
it there. Anyways, he he talked a lot about his hometown.
I think he's removed the South. I remember he did,
he did, but no guide did before.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
He did that. Okay. Then we had a brief history
of romance novels, just how they've changed over the years. Yeah,
obviously there's a lot of weird shit now versus well,
there's still weird shit back in the day.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Ye honestly, don't even remember how they don't remember. Don't
know ed Gan because Deleen, he went to the Texas
chains on Masac your house and the movie was inspired
in part by ed Gan, guy who made nipple belt.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Yep, nipple belt and all them lamps.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Or whatever lamp in the belt yep.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Then we got Jack London, who was a fake socialist
who loved eugenics and became a writer because he thought
it was the easiest way to make money, which is
you know what, I don't remember the episode, but fuck him.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
He was in the gold Rush, but he built that
house of stone that burnt down that was called the
wolf manor or something.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
That sounds like him, honestly, Yeah, nineteen What is the KGB?
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Yeah, of course I can't pronounce any Russian names. No,
they're rare, they're hard. Okay, have easier names for me.
I'm sorry. My family kind of came from that area.
But do I know the language is now?
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah? And yeah, just learn about KGB, guys, It's fine.
Then we got Kurt Vonnegut, obviously Sid's fave, who we
thought was going to be super controversial, but he wasn't
so like we were pleasantly surprised by that. He wasn't
a great husband though, But yeah, Sidney loves him.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
He's he's one of the best.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Honestly, I love him too. All the books I've read
by him amazing.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
He's a great fucking writer. I mean, there's the first
few pages of Breakfasted Champions, the book we're in. It
read good, right, Yeah, I'm just like in the drawings,
love so fun love probably guy who has little doodles
in his books Love a Little Doodle, you know what,
They're not even bad. Okay, has spilled fourteen sixty one,
four sixty seven Florida book bands, that's what.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Don Yeah, there's quite a few of those ones, so well,
there's at least four I know that, So yay. Then
we got the Trail of tears. If y'all didn't know,
it was just classic horrific American history. And if you
were second guessing Andrew Jackson, guess what, he's a piece
of shit. Don't second guess him. He sucked. That's it.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Yeah, not a great guy apparently, but also dead. In
case you're wondering novel news, because oh, is this the
lady who in.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
She literally wrote a book called how to Kill Your Husband?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Yeah, the Portland lady, and then she killed her husband.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
And then she was on trial for killing her husband.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Yeah, she was her chef husband. She did it. She's
kind of a bitch. Yep. Man didn't deserve that.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Don't write a book like that, guys, Like, it's just
not it's just silly. It worked for it worked for OJ,
will not work for you.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Oh you did it after you know?
Speaker 1 (11:02):
True, it's true. You gotta go and trial first, then
you write the book. Okay. Then we have David Sedaris,
the iconic author, comedian, garbage enthusiast.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
I don't remember the garbage thing.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
That either, but sounds cool and he's sounds like.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Him, so finally I saw him at a reading once
cool dude, cool dude, lat fan literature. Once again. Can't
pronounce it. Eastern Europe. Your names are hard. It's not
embarrassing because just because my grandfather was born there doesn't
mean they don't know shit about the language.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
But you still can't pronounce all them names though.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
I'll never be able to. I could pronounce my last name.
That's the only Latvian name I could pronounce.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
And it's probably one of the easiest ones. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I don't know. Tell you, I.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Couldn't tell you. Next, we had history of the true
crime genre, which is apparently the fastest growing genre. I
would believe that bitches love true crime. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Yeah, you know, I can bring up the Bible.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Oh yeah, Apparently we think that the Bible is the
original true crime book, which.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
I mean, I don't know about true crime book, but
it is a murder book. I mean bitches be committing
crimes in that book.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
It's full of crime as far as I've heard.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Yeah, never haven't read it, never will. I know the
stories Jack when Susanne, the author of Value of the Dolls,
the book tour queen who is apparently a hashtag boss babe.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
In the description, we called her a boss babe like
two different times.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
I mean, I think she did just go. I mean
she was really good at marketing.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
And good for her. We love that, like yeah, then
we got uh the Barefoot Bandit he was a teen
who stoles America's hearts one plane at a time. But
then you know, he grew up and uh, you know,
don't get to know your heroes because by twenty sixteen
he was not cool. I don't remember what he did.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
I'm guessing he supported I'm guessing it was a Trump thing.
It's just the year twenty sixteen.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
Yeah, probably something right wing related.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
So not great came a Trump guy rolled Rold Doll.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
I know, I watched a video where he said how
to say his name, and then I instantly forgot how
he said his name, So.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Always want to call him Ronald, and I know it's wrong.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
It's a I think a Scandinavian uh area of type name.
His family is Scandinavian, I believe.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Is what I learned in the video The American move On.
He's a problematic sex guy who wrote a bunch of
books that we do love. I Love Matilda.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Yeah. Then uh, for number thirty, we got Delia Owens,
which was another woman who wrote about murder and then
her and her husband they maybe murdered a person or
two and maybe they say it's in the in the
name of conservation, but like a little suspicious.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
It's when white people go to Africa and then kill people. Yeah,
but also just in general, most white people going out
for capitalists. Yeah, what are you doing there?
Speaker 1 (14:05):
I'm suspicious of you.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Yeah, You're have questions. I'm not just gonna be like, okay, exactly.
Especial if you're going there and you're like we're gonna
be good, we're helping you never help. You never helped.
You're just Lorain and Lorraine Warren. We love him. Fake
demon hunter com man bus driver, bus driver.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Yeah. And creepy rapist I think for ed.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Creeper pedophile who was into young teens.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
I remember that part, oh Eddie.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Yeah, And then we got Michael Crichton dino expert. Guys
remember him from Jurassic Park. Also maybe one of the
fifty hottest people. I didn't remember that part, but.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
I don't remember that either. You didn't put any thematic
stuff about him. He is very problematic.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
That wasn't in the bio, so I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Oh well, he used a surprise because didn't he write
a bunch of He's like super anti climate change.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
That's right, which is surprising considering he did all that
dinosaur stuff so well. He like he should understand the
climate and a spiritual level.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Just because he wants to bring dinosaurs back doesn't mean
he understands.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
He doesn't want to bring them back Sydney. He's trying
to warn us.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
I feel like he would do it, though, give me,
give him the chance. Yeah, okay, George, orwell, Surprise Grenade
expert wrote, Steph loved, he loved. He was a good milk.
He was in the me fought a lot. He was
a soldier. Yeah. Yeah, Spanish revolution or Spanish Civil War,
(15:41):
not revolution. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
And then we got the Harper Union strike. You guys
remember that. I believe it was at the point of
the mini at least it was at twenty nine days
because HarperCollins didn't want to pay its staff a livable wage, so.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
I think it did. When it ended, they did get
a pay raise, but probably still not enough to live
in New York.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Probably not.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Susan me Chan, I think that's say pronoun her name
as an author who maybe came back from the dead
to posts on Facebook. She was a con artist. I'm
pretty sure she was escape.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
She like faked her own death just for publicity, kind
of so that when she wrote a new book it
would be more popular.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
I don't know, I remember the details. I remember bitch
be crazy though, yep.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
And then we got Stephen Carrey Bloomberg aka the most
prolific book thief to ever live.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
To a bunch of rare books from like libraries and
stuff like he had millions I want to say a thousand.
He had a ton of books.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Go off.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
I mean what he was good at, what he did, Okay,
let him have hobbies. Langston Hughes, poet, activist, Harlem Renaissance.
If you tell me Harlem Renaissance, he's who I think
of number one. And here's the one who stuck with
me when I learned about that in college.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Literally though, like Langston Hughes, I know him, Harlem Renaissance.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Yes, that's it, that's how I got.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Okay, Then we got another book banning. This one was
called book Banning How far will it go? And yeah,
big surprise, Rondasantis was involved, so you know it's some
Florida bullshit once again?
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Was she in Florida? Melville Dewey a real bad guy.
He invented the Dewey decimal system but also anti Semite.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Yeah, yikes, man. Then we got for number forty, it's
more book banning. This is book Banning number three. So
many books, so little time. I don't know if that's
in the title or not.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I think it my title.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I put the full title in all of them. And
so yeah, this time it was Texas and Missouri. And
also this was our only episode that has different artwork.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Yeah, I remember I made a special thing for this one.
I was like, we could do it for ab them
and then didn't. So here we are forty one A
brief history of libraries. Apparently I did include the Library
of Alexandria.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
It was like, we don't know what was in there.
I think was the idea. So you had to talk
about all the other libraries. Yeah, I burned down.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
I don't know, well, I wasn't alive. I'm sorry. I
remember that they used paper to wrap fish in from
the library. I don't remember.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
There you go. Then we got the Writer's Guild strike
because like, remember that in twenty twenty three, guys, that happened,
so basically, just make sure to support your artists and
writers and not AI. And that was in twenty twenty three.
We were saying that, so like even more prevalent.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Now, Oh, it's just pointless now, AI, it's rible. I
was just listening to a podcast about how AI and
then it's like really bad. Chat JBT is terrible if
you're schizophrenic because it will encourage your delusions.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Well, and it's like it doesn't actually do any research.
Guys like my aunt is always like, do you have
chat GABT? And I'm like no, because.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
I've never even used it, never once. If I use it,
I don't even understand it. Yeah, I don't use it. People,
but like it's so easy these people. I was this
episode's crazy. Listen to it QAA podcast. It might be
a premium episode, so five dollars a month you can
hear it and or maybe it's free, but like within
like it's a couple of days. This guy went from
(19:10):
like just asking chat GBT like for like recipes or whatever,
to full on down the rabbit hole. He thinks he's Jesus, like.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
It went crazy.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Yeah, and these because there's no safeguards, like if you say,
like you how, if you ask, like how do I
kill myself? You'll give you the suicide hotline like Google. Well,
but if you like go full on like schizophrenic, like
if you have like paranoid delusions, it will encourage.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Them or believe it because I mean, yeah, it's going
off of what you tell it man, like it's it is.
I don't Yeah, we're against AI in this.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
It's really bad. And also I just don't understand it
and don't use like I just never have used it.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Yeah, I already have Google. I don't need AI.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Google uses enough AI for me, and I don't like it.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
That's what I never got into, Like, uh, the fucking
Alexi Siri that bullshit. Either it's the same shit I
don't I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
I don't ever ask anything.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
I have it disabled on my phone. I would delete it.
If I could, but they won't let me.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
They record you. I know, yeah, Alexa, Google.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Is already recording me. Okay, I don't need them recording
twenty four to seven.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Alexa literally records everything you say to it and stores it.
You can't opt out of it anymore. I'm pretty sure
I saw something where it's like you can no longer
opt out everything you say stored.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Yeah. Creepy wow.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Speaking of Great Controversy forty three, The Great Controversy a
book I gott in the mail about. I think it
was a Catholic church.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Yeah, I think there was some kind of religion stuff.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
I think it was like anti Catholic.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
So what's up with that, guys?
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Which is crazy because the Catholics have been having a
moment with a new pope thing. I mean really, they've
been in the news a lot.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Good for Oh, I've seen so many things where people
are like, if the pope is American, why isn't he
speaking English, English and Rome?
Speaker 2 (21:05):
And at the Vatican he speaks Latin because he's a pope,
now I'm sorry. Also, he spent a lot of time
in South America, so I'm sure he speaks Spanish too,
But yes, yeah, and also he probably speaks Italian just
because now he has to live in Italy.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Yeah, good for him being American, least least interesting thing
about the man. Probably, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
It made him. It made him, you know, historical first
American pope.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
It's true, and it pissed off a lot of conservatives.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
The first pope to have a hot dog because you
know he's from Chicago.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Oh my god, i'd be.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
The first pope to ever eat a deep dish pizza.
We don't know.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
I just love the jokes where they give him a
Chicago accent. Yeah I do, too iconic. Anyways, back to
this forty four it's book banning four Pan America versus
Iscambia County, Florida. In this one, the authors are fighting back,
so like that was exciting. I don't know how I did, but.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Yeah, I have to. I don't think it's concluded yet.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
There are a couple update episodes, so it might be
on there.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Yeah, but it's still to my knowledge, I don't think
he's ever.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Been law suits take a while.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Yeah, Okay. Forty five Moms for Liberty aka Antigament group
of pretended it's okay to be homophobic if you have

Speaker 1 (22:25):
Enough said them forty six.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Fairly popular. This is a fairly popular.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
It should be because it's Robert Putson, Agent of chaos.
I'm pretty sure this is just you talking about different interviews.
He's been in the lies he tells in these fucking interviews,
and it's just us being in love with him because
everyone should be.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
He just tells crazy lies. I honestly might want to
do an update on it because he'd just be talking
about like, Howie lie all the time.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Did you have you seen his new movie, well one
of his new movie, uh, Mickey seventeen.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
No, I haven't, but I want to.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
My parents bought it on Prime or whatever. So it's
pretty good. A lot of people don't like it for
like one stupid scene that I don't think is well,
like they're stupid for not liking it. You know, if
it's whatever, it's it's a good movie. You should watch it.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
I heard he really likes it, so it makes me
think it is crazy in a way.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
It's a bit silly, and he has a funny voice.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Yeah, it's like he said I think his favorite movie
he's ever done, which intrigues me.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Yea a hot girlfriend, so like, yeah, yeah.

Good for her hot girlfriend in real life too, in.
Speaker 1 (23:29):

Speaking of movies, the Barbie movie. We just said about
the barbe movie. I don't remember why.

how Ryan Gossling is ken It's a great role for him.
It is. Then we got what is Pregger you? It's
it's just right wing propaganda because yeah, kind of terrifying,
but that's all it is.
Speaker 2 (23:53):

the mysterious book about the Maui fire that was published
two days after the fire. And also we talk about
a Jason Derulo biography.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
I don't remember the Jason Darulo biography. Why are we
writing a biography on him?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
It made it in the description don't know, but we
were exciting.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
It must have also been written by AI because the
Fire and Fury book is most likely AI.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
Which would make sense that came out two days later.
But you know, Bitch has had a lot to say
about those fires and still do. There's a lot of
conspiracies behind them. At least one of them might be true.
Who knows well.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
The true one is whether other and climate change. Anyways,
the Twilight soundtrack, it's real good.

music and talk about mus because they were in it.
And then we got the Lost Cause, which was a
bad cause which ended up it was it's like a
conspiracy about the Civil War or something.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
It's remember why people say the Civil War state rights
because this started like within a few years of the
Civil War ending, they decided to start spreading a rumor
that it wasn't about slavery a hint it was.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
So it was Actually we talk about Twilight and.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
After the eclipse Eclipse episode, I think, so, yeah, that's
one where we learn that Jasper was a Civil War
Confederate soldier and he doesn't apologize for it, and I
just think one apology one, a little one little whoops
would have been nice. But no, you know I feel
bad about that one.

Speaker 2 (40:10):
They did fix that loophole. The judgers were like, this

Speaker 1 (40:15):
Yes, but it took longer than it should have. I mean, yeah,
as did most of the laws that you talk about.
Then we had ninety eight werewolf literature, but was mainly
just a history of werewolves because they've been around forever
and are maybe the explanation for serial killers.
Speaker 2 (40:31):

Oh my god, it's crazy. It hasn't happened sooner. I guess. Well,
we took a brief fatus accidentally.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
These things happen anyways. Yeah, So this is our hundredth mini.
But fun fact, if you count the bonus episodes, it
might be one oh four because we did four bonus
episodes before we started doing minis, and then we started
the story times and movie nights. But minis were like
the OG. So basically, for the hundredth mini, we're gonna
(00:46):
give a breakdown of all the other minis based only
on the episode's summaries, because I was not about to
listen to all the.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Fucking Okay, some of this you had more detail than
just the titles, and I was like, damn, had she
not so much? Did she go back and listen? That's crazy,
as if I would not.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
I do not prep that much. Sorry, guys. It's based
on the the descriptions and what I remember, and I
also figured we'd chip in whatever we remember too, so
some honor I mentioned. So the bonus episodes, they they
were about. The first one was Patty Hurst, the second
one was the Stanford Prison Experiment. The third was Debbie Mackle.
(01:23):
I remember she was the inspo, well not inspo but
like looking for Alaska.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
But like, no, that's the lovely Bones actually, so.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
That's what I meant. Sorry, lovely bones.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
So Patty Hurst because she was mentioned in that book
about Squeaky Yes, uh, Stanford prison experiment, because the Lord
of the Flies. Debbie Mackle because of the lovely Alaska.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
God, damn it, such a different lovely bones. Lovely bones.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah, Debbie Mackle was a poor murdered child, not some
teen with inks mannic Pixie.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Dream Girl was about looking for a lot, because that's
yes THEO or was it?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
No, Twilight was Mary Sue.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Yeah, Twilight was Mary Sue. That was an actual mini
So we will talk about that too. But okay, do
you want to be even or odds.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
I'll be odds. So I'll start our first mini ever.
I did it on the Titan which is a book
that predicted the Titanic fourteen years before it happened.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Number two was Edgar Allan Poe, the og Emo kid.
You also talked about some death conspiracies with him, so like,
that's fun. Also, I figured that you would want to
be the odds. So like some of these I've written
like for each of us, just.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
You know, oh perfect. Yes. Number three Iselda Fitzgerald who's
the wife of was called him JK. Fitzgerald. You know
Fitzgerald and her husband plagiarized her and also did she
go into a mental institute.

maybe probably Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
I think she ended up going into a mental hospital.
She had a rough time. Rough time.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
The description for that episode is maybe the dumbest one
we've ever.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Been, so probably once they're dumb.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
It's literally like Zelda, you're gay for Hemingway and stole
my books. It it's something really dumb. And then it's
like he says something and that it's like Zelda throws
herself down the stairs like it's we didn't It's funny,
I think, but it's domb.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yeah, they did have a her husband was They were drama.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
That's what I remember. Okay, Next one Shakespeare conspiracies because
maybe he didn't write all of his stuff because according
to some people, poor people can't be talented, so there
was some drama behind that.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
They really do be down my guy. They doubted him
strange literary deaths. I remember I did this right before
Morbid did their episode of the same title, and I
was like, okay, got me some Apparently three did we
only talk about three authors at least three.

Yeah. Number six Brief History of Horror, which was mostly
just a recapit but Wikipedia page, as most of the
genre ones are, it do be like that.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Seven is the Marquis de Sade, the guy who invented sadism,
and he sucked. But he was also in the Bastille prison,
I think during the breakout. So that's school if I
remember criting.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
I don't know. Maybe then we had the truth about
Amineville because the Dafayos did lie, and running to Fail
sucked a lie.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Didn't lie. Ryan to fail killed?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Oh yeah, sorry, not the defail killed.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
His family to fail over to fail. Also, I think
lied about why.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
He murdered his whole ast family, but he lied about
ghosts and stuff when really he was just an awful,
terrible guy who killed his family.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Yeah, the family couldn't lie they were murdered. Yes, Mary Sue,
we're back at it because that Yeah, Twilight, it's just
a girl who has nothing going on that you project
yourself onto because fanfic.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yep. Then we got Ben Franklin murderer.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
This one was my favorite. I remember all the details.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Yeah I don't, but you know, maybe he was Jack
the Ripper. He wasn't just a founding father. Okay. I
love conspiracies about.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Lived in a house where later on they found a
bunch of bones under But also a doctor lived in
that house, So maybe he was just had dumb bodies,
you know.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Or maybe that's what Ben wants you to think.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
He probably didn't tell me one, but like there was
a lot of bones under his house.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Okay, Okay, who knows. He was a crazy little slit.
He could have been doing anything.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
He really could have. Oh this one. Manifesto's not the
bad kind, just the art in literature kind, because there
was some fun ones. People don't do them the same
way they used to. Okay, Manifesto has got a bad rap,
but they used to be cool and for our movements.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Bring back good manifestos.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Stop putting your manifestos on your fucking four jan Yeah,
don't want it about why you're in in cell?
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Okay. Number twelve was about Jane Austen, who was obviously
an author, but also she was a girl who accomplished
a whole lot in a time when girls couldn't accomplish
a whole lot. So like, we love it, girl power.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Do be an icon. Malcolm Gladwell our most popular mini.
By the way.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
That's so I meant to look that up too and
figure out how far that's why.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Are the most listener listeners listens? Malcolm god is popular mini.
He was the fastesting in Canada. Good for him, I know. Yeah.
All I remember from this mini is the stop and
risk stuff. That's because I remember not liking him. He
has recently apologized for that view, so I'll give him that.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Okay. We love people that learn, Okay. Next, we had
Sir Terry Pratchett. He was the author of the Discworld series.
If you all forgot, he was a super cool guy
and he got knighted by the Queen for his work
in literature, which like, damn, okay, that's cool.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Yeah, the dead Queen so Nicholas Sparks. Yes, well, yeah,
but now she's dead. Nick Sparks never met the dead
queen in as far as I know, But I saw
something about him recently.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Makes sense. He's still writing copious amounts of books.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
I'm sure. Yeah, I said something weird about him. I
probably send it to you on Instagram if I saw
it there. Anyways, he he talked a lot about his hometown.
I think he's removed the South. I remember he did,
he did, but no guide did before.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
He did that. Okay. Then we had a brief history
of romance novels, just how they've changed over the years. Yeah,
obviously there's a lot of weird shit now versus well,
there's still weird shit back in the day.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Ye honestly, don't even remember how they don't remember. Don't
know ed Gan because Deleen, he went to the Texas
chains on Masac your house and the movie was inspired
in part by ed Gan, guy who made nipple belt.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Yep, nipple belt and all them lamps.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Or whatever lamp in the belt yep.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Then we got Jack London, who was a fake socialist
who loved eugenics and became a writer because he thought
it was the easiest way to make money, which is
you know what, I don't remember the episode, but fuck him.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
He was in the gold Rush, but he built that
house of stone that burnt down that was called the
wolf manor or something.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
That sounds like him, honestly, Yeah, nineteen What is the KGB?
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Yeah, of course I can't pronounce any Russian names. No,
they're rare, they're hard. Okay, have easier names for me.
I'm sorry. My family kind of came from that area.
But do I know the language is now?
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah? And yeah, just learn about KGB, guys, It's fine.
Then we got Kurt Vonnegut, obviously Sid's fave, who we
thought was going to be super controversial, but he wasn't
so like we were pleasantly surprised by that. He wasn't
a great husband though, But yeah, Sidney loves him.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
He's he's one of the best.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Honestly, I love him too. All the books I've read
by him amazing.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
He's a great fucking writer. I mean, there's the first
few pages of Breakfasted Champions, the book we're in. It
read good, right, Yeah, I'm just like in the drawings,
love so fun love probably guy who has little doodles
in his books Love a Little Doodle, you know what,
They're not even bad. Okay, has spilled fourteen sixty one,
four sixty seven Florida book bands, that's what.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Don Yeah, there's quite a few of those ones, so well,
there's at least four I know that, So yay. Then
we got the Trail of tears. If y'all didn't know,
it was just classic horrific American history. And if you
were second guessing Andrew Jackson, guess what, he's a piece
of shit. Don't second guess him. He sucked. That's it.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Yeah, not a great guy apparently, but also dead. In
case you're wondering novel news, because oh, is this the
lady who in.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
She literally wrote a book called how to Kill Your Husband?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Yeah, the Portland lady, and then she killed her husband.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
And then she was on trial for killing her husband.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Yeah, she was her chef husband. She did it. She's
kind of a bitch. Yep. Man didn't deserve that.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Don't write a book like that, guys, Like, it's just
not it's just silly. It worked for it worked for OJ,
will not work for you.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Oh you did it after you know?
Speaker 1 (11:02):
True, it's true. You gotta go and trial first, then
you write the book. Okay. Then we have David Sedaris,
the iconic author, comedian, garbage enthusiast.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
I don't remember the garbage thing.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
That either, but sounds cool and he's sounds like.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Him, so finally I saw him at a reading once
cool dude, cool dude, lat fan literature. Once again. Can't
pronounce it. Eastern Europe. Your names are hard. It's not
embarrassing because just because my grandfather was born there doesn't
mean they don't know shit about the language.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
But you still can't pronounce all them names though.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
I'll never be able to. I could pronounce my last name.
That's the only Latvian name I could pronounce.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
And it's probably one of the easiest ones. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I don't know. Tell you, I.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Couldn't tell you. Next, we had history of the true
crime genre, which is apparently the fastest growing genre. I
would believe that bitches love true crime. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Yeah, you know, I can bring up the Bible.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Oh yeah, Apparently we think that the Bible is the
original true crime book, which.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
I mean, I don't know about true crime book, but
it is a murder book. I mean bitches be committing
crimes in that book.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
It's full of crime as far as I've heard.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Yeah, never haven't read it, never will. I know the
stories Jack when Susanne, the author of Value of the Dolls,
the book tour queen who is apparently a hashtag boss babe.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
In the description, we called her a boss babe like
two different times.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
I mean, I think she did just go. I mean
she was really good at marketing.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
And good for her. We love that, like yeah, then
we got uh the Barefoot Bandit he was a teen
who stoles America's hearts one plane at a time. But
then you know, he grew up and uh, you know,
don't get to know your heroes because by twenty sixteen
he was not cool. I don't remember what he did.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
I'm guessing he supported I'm guessing it was a Trump thing.
It's just the year twenty sixteen.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
Yeah, probably something right wing related.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
So not great came a Trump guy rolled Rold Doll.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
I know, I watched a video where he said how
to say his name, and then I instantly forgot how
he said his name, So.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Always want to call him Ronald, and I know it's wrong.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
It's a I think a Scandinavian uh area of type name.
His family is Scandinavian, I believe.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Is what I learned in the video The American move On.
He's a problematic sex guy who wrote a bunch of
books that we do love. I Love Matilda.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Yeah. Then uh, for number thirty, we got Delia Owens,
which was another woman who wrote about murder and then
her and her husband they maybe murdered a person or
two and maybe they say it's in the in the
name of conservation, but like a little suspicious.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
It's when white people go to Africa and then kill people. Yeah,
but also just in general, most white people going out
for capitalists. Yeah, what are you doing there?
Speaker 1 (14:05):
I'm suspicious of you.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Yeah, You're have questions. I'm not just gonna be like, okay, exactly.
Especial if you're going there and you're like we're gonna
be good, we're helping you never help. You never helped.
You're just Lorain and Lorraine Warren. We love him. Fake
demon hunter com man bus driver, bus driver.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Yeah. And creepy rapist I think for ed.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Creeper pedophile who was into young teens.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
I remember that part, oh Eddie.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Yeah, And then we got Michael Crichton dino expert. Guys
remember him from Jurassic Park. Also maybe one of the
fifty hottest people. I didn't remember that part, but.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
I don't remember that either. You didn't put any thematic
stuff about him. He is very problematic.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
That wasn't in the bio, so I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Oh well, he used a surprise because didn't he write
a bunch of He's like super anti climate change.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
That's right, which is surprising considering he did all that
dinosaur stuff so well. He like he should understand the
climate and a spiritual level.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Just because he wants to bring dinosaurs back doesn't mean
he understands.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
He doesn't want to bring them back Sydney. He's trying
to warn us.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
I feel like he would do it, though, give me,
give him the chance. Yeah, okay, George, orwell, Surprise Grenade
expert wrote, Steph loved, he loved. He was a good milk.
He was in the me fought a lot. He was
a soldier. Yeah. Yeah, Spanish revolution or Spanish Civil War,
(15:41):
not revolution. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
And then we got the Harper Union strike. You guys
remember that. I believe it was at the point of
the mini at least it was at twenty nine days
because HarperCollins didn't want to pay its staff a livable wage, so.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
I think it did. When it ended, they did get
a pay raise, but probably still not enough to live
in New York.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Probably not.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Susan me Chan, I think that's say pronoun her name
as an author who maybe came back from the dead
to posts on Facebook. She was a con artist. I'm
pretty sure she was escape.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
She like faked her own death just for publicity, kind
of so that when she wrote a new book it
would be more popular.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
I don't know, I remember the details. I remember bitch
be crazy though, yep.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
And then we got Stephen Carrey Bloomberg aka the most
prolific book thief to ever live.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
To a bunch of rare books from like libraries and
stuff like he had millions I want to say a thousand.
He had a ton of books.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Go off.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
I mean what he was good at, what he did, Okay,
let him have hobbies. Langston Hughes, poet, activist, Harlem Renaissance.
If you tell me Harlem Renaissance, he's who I think
of number one. And here's the one who stuck with
me when I learned about that in college.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Literally though, like Langston Hughes, I know him, Harlem Renaissance.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Yes, that's it, that's how I got.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Okay, Then we got another book banning. This one was
called book Banning How far will it go? And yeah,
big surprise, Rondasantis was involved, so you know it's some
Florida bullshit once again?
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Was she in Florida? Melville Dewey a real bad guy.
He invented the Dewey decimal system but also anti Semite.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Yeah, yikes, man. Then we got for number forty, it's
more book banning. This is book Banning number three. So
many books, so little time. I don't know if that's
in the title or not.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I think it my title.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I put the full title in all of them. And
so yeah, this time it was Texas and Missouri. And
also this was our only episode that has different artwork.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Yeah, I remember I made a special thing for this one.
I was like, we could do it for ab them
and then didn't. So here we are forty one A
brief history of libraries. Apparently I did include the Library
of Alexandria.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
It was like, we don't know what was in there.
I think was the idea. So you had to talk
about all the other libraries. Yeah, I burned down.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
I don't know, well, I wasn't alive. I'm sorry. I
remember that they used paper to wrap fish in from
the library. I don't remember.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
There you go. Then we got the Writer's Guild strike
because like, remember that in twenty twenty three, guys, that happened,
so basically, just make sure to support your artists and
writers and not AI. And that was in twenty twenty three.
We were saying that, so like even more prevalent.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Now, Oh, it's just pointless now, AI, it's rible. I
was just listening to a podcast about how AI and
then it's like really bad. Chat JBT is terrible if
you're schizophrenic because it will encourage your delusions.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Well, and it's like it doesn't actually do any research.
Guys like my aunt is always like, do you have
chat GABT? And I'm like no, because.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
I've never even used it, never once. If I use it,
I don't even understand it. Yeah, I don't use it. People,
but like it's so easy these people. I was this
episode's crazy. Listen to it QAA podcast. It might be
a premium episode, so five dollars a month you can
hear it and or maybe it's free, but like within
like it's a couple of days. This guy went from
(19:10):
like just asking chat GBT like for like recipes or whatever,
to full on down the rabbit hole. He thinks he's Jesus, like.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
It went crazy.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Yeah, and these because there's no safeguards, like if you say,
like you how, if you ask, like how do I
kill myself? You'll give you the suicide hotline like Google. Well,
but if you like go full on like schizophrenic, like
if you have like paranoid delusions, it will encourage.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Them or believe it because I mean, yeah, it's going
off of what you tell it man, like it's it is.
I don't Yeah, we're against AI in this.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
It's really bad. And also I just don't understand it
and don't use like I just never have used it.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Yeah, I already have Google. I don't need AI.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Google uses enough AI for me, and I don't like it.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
That's what I never got into, Like, uh, the fucking
Alexi Siri that bullshit. Either it's the same shit I
don't I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
I don't ever ask anything.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
I have it disabled on my phone. I would delete it.
If I could, but they won't let me.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
They record you. I know, yeah, Alexa, Google.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Is already recording me. Okay, I don't need them recording
twenty four to seven.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Alexa literally records everything you say to it and stores it.
You can't opt out of it anymore. I'm pretty sure
I saw something where it's like you can no longer
opt out everything you say stored.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Yeah. Creepy wow.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Speaking of Great Controversy forty three, The Great Controversy a
book I gott in the mail about. I think it
was a Catholic church.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Yeah, I think there was some kind of religion stuff.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
I think it was like anti Catholic.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
So what's up with that, guys?
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Which is crazy because the Catholics have been having a
moment with a new pope thing. I mean really, they've
been in the news a lot.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Good for Oh, I've seen so many things where people
are like, if the pope is American, why isn't he
speaking English, English and Rome?
Speaker 2 (21:05):
And at the Vatican he speaks Latin because he's a pope,
now I'm sorry. Also, he spent a lot of time
in South America, so I'm sure he speaks Spanish too,
But yes, yeah, and also he probably speaks Italian just
because now he has to live in Italy.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Yeah, good for him being American, least least interesting thing
about the man. Probably, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
It made him. It made him, you know, historical first
American pope.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
It's true, and it pissed off a lot of conservatives.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
The first pope to have a hot dog because you
know he's from Chicago.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Oh my god, i'd be.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
The first pope to ever eat a deep dish pizza.
We don't know.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
I just love the jokes where they give him a
Chicago accent. Yeah I do, too iconic. Anyways, back to
this forty four it's book banning four Pan America versus
Iscambia County, Florida. In this one, the authors are fighting back,
so like that was exciting. I don't know how I did, but.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Yeah, I have to. I don't think it's concluded yet.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
There are a couple update episodes, so it might be
on there.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Yeah, but it's still to my knowledge, I don't think
he's ever.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Been law suits take a while.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Yeah, Okay. Forty five Moms for Liberty aka Antigament group
of pretended it's okay to be homophobic if you have
a kid, mom should abo to be whack bitches. It's
just a group of whack ass bitches.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Enough said them forty six.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Fairly popular. This is a fairly popular.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
It should be because it's Robert Putson, Agent of chaos.
I'm pretty sure this is just you talking about different interviews.
He's been in the lies he tells in these fucking interviews,
and it's just us being in love with him because
everyone should be.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
He just tells crazy lies. I honestly might want to
do an update on it because he'd just be talking
about like, Howie lie all the time.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Did you have you seen his new movie, well one
of his new movie, uh, Mickey seventeen.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
No, I haven't, but I want to.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
My parents bought it on Prime or whatever. So it's
pretty good. A lot of people don't like it for
like one stupid scene that I don't think is well,
like they're stupid for not liking it. You know, if
it's whatever, it's it's a good movie. You should watch it.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
I heard he really likes it, so it makes me
think it is crazy in a way.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
It's a bit silly, and he has a funny voice.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Yeah, it's like he said I think his favorite movie
he's ever done, which intrigues me.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Yea a hot girlfriend, so like, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Good for her hot girlfriend in real life too, in.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Real life and in this movie.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Speaking of movies, the Barbie movie. We just said about
the barbe movie. I don't remember why.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Yeah, just for fun, and I think we talk about
how Ryan Gossling is ken It's a great role for him.
It is. Then we got what is Pregger you? It's
it's just right wing propaganda because yeah, kind of terrifying,
but that's all it is.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
It's we talk about pegger you later episodes. Listen to
that episode though, because they do talk about Dennis Pregger
and I did read some old ass articles with him.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Yeah, Prigger You comes back, don't worry.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
Yeah, Moms for Liberty and Florida Schools Update, Uh, everything's bad.
Still update, still bad.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
Still bad. Then for number fifty, we have Fire and Fury,
the mysterious book about the Maui fire that was published
two days after the fire. And also we talk about
a Jason Derulo biography.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
I don't remember the Jason Darulo biography. Why are we
writing a biography on him?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
It made it in the description don't know, but we
were exciting.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
It must have also been written by AI because the
Fire and Fury book is most likely AI.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
Which would make sense that came out two days later.
But you know, Bitch has had a lot to say
about those fires and still do. There's a lot of
conspiracies behind them. At least one of them might be true.
Who knows well.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
The true one is whether other and climate change. Anyways,
the Twilight soundtrack, it's real good.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
That's yeah. I think we just break down all the
music and talk about mus because they were in it.
And then we got the Lost Cause, which was a
bad cause which ended up it was it's like a
conspiracy about the Civil War or something.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
It's remember why people say the Civil War state rights
because this started like within a few years of the
Civil War ending, they decided to start spreading a rumor
that it wasn't about slavery a hint it was.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
So it was Actually we talk about Twilight and.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
After the eclipse Eclipse episode, I think, so, yeah, that's
one where we learn that Jasper was a Civil War
Confederate soldier and he doesn't apologize for it, and I
just think one apology one, a little one little whoops
would have been nice. But no, you know I feel
bad about that one.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
He doesn't.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
I just wish you would say he feel bad about
it as.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
All, just like one time, not asking much a little regret.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Claudie with the Chance of Meatballs the book versus the
movie because Doane loves it.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
As I should. We did a movie night on it too,
so don't worry, guys. We we covered clus Chance and
Meatballs only not the first one.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Yeah, but we haven't read it. I mean, like I
haven't read it.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
I have, but that's fine anyways. Fifty four was about
