Speaker 1 (00:19):
It is time to leave your warriors outside and laugh
with us inside the treehouse. I'm Dan, O'Malley, along with
Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma. Today is Thursday, July thirty first,
twenty twenty five. And you know it wouldn't be a
(00:40):
Thursday in America without some new battle in the ongoing
culture war. American Eagles new ad campaign starring Sydney Sweeney
has the woke mob claiming racism and Nazi propaganda.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
It's done from parents to offspring, often determining trade. It's
like her color, personality and even eye color. My jeans are.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
Blue, Sidney's Sweeney hasburg Keynes.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
You guys are complaining about that Sydney Sweeney jeans, and
so I went and saw it.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
That's Nazi propaganda.
Speaker 6 (01:19):
Wow, I will be the friend that's two woke because
those Sydney Sweeney American Eagle ads are weird, like fascist, weird,
like Nazi propaganda weird. This is Nazi.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
Pure Nazi, all right, gentlemen, is American Eagles new ad
campaign starring Sydney Sweeney Nazi propaganda. Raj, We'll start with you, yes, Trey, no,
all right, now, let's get it on.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
I like how you're Bruce Buffer in this moment.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Yeah, yeah, Okay, briefly tell me why you think this
is notazo propaganda.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Just play the commercial again and think of it that
way in a second, because she they changed the commercial
because it was just good jeans, good jeans, good jeans,
over and over again.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
So they've changed this commercial.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Well, this is the one that's out there, and they've
actually pulled this.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Ad from parents to offspring, often determining traits like her color, personality,
and even eye color.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
A blonde hair, blue eyed girl.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Blue city Sweeney Hasbury Keynes, M.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
There you go, yep, yep. Had the ad campaign been
jeans for white girls, would that have been okay?
Speaker 5 (02:47):
I don't know what that means.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Well, that's basically I mean, if you're saying that it's
not too propaganda stuff, then that's sort of an implied
message being sent by American eagle. It's saying, look, these
genes are for white women. The other side of it
is like you're saying, is that, well, this is clearly
saying that blonde hair, blue eyed, white skin is the
good genes is okay, So here's no hang on, Trey,
(03:14):
let me say this and I'm gonna come to you.
I don't think this is not too propaganda. I also
don't think that this is a good ad. I'm more
offended at the basic bitch marketing denim jeans, human gens,
blue eyes, blue denim. I have an amazing idea. Let's
charge millions of dollars as an ad agency to American
(03:36):
Eagle and this will anyway. The flip side is on
the the woke part of it. The this is not
too propaganda thing is just because this ad says Sidney
Sweeney has good genes, doesn't mean you, as a person
of color, don't. Okay, They're just saying Sidney Sweeney has
(04:00):
good genes, and people are are are putting things in
there which are their own biases.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
But that's how propaganda works, right, That's how it works.
It's it's telling it's a select market that you have
good genes.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
It is, but that's more of an implied thing. When
you within, you then have to add in your part
that says because you don't. The Nazi propaganda part is
the Nazis saying arians are the best and we're going
to prove it, and then we're going to murder anybody.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Else, and that's what they said, and I agree with
that Arians are the best because I'm Rian.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
I don't know if you know Iran Well.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Hitler's version was a little different than the history the name, Yeah, Trey,
is this Nazi propaganda? No? Why?
Speaker 7 (04:49):
First of all, by any objective definition, she has good genes, like,
she's pretty talented. That's what you would say if that
had backs.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Everything you just said is very subjective.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
Sure, not really.
Speaker 7 (05:05):
I mean, I think most people would agree she's attractive.
It's a pretty girl.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Okay, most people think, you know, she has some talent.
Speaker 7 (05:15):
So let me so let me ask you a question.
If let's say, if that had been Zoe Kravitz, okay, then.
Speaker 5 (05:23):
But it wasn't.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Okay, that's but that's so so you know, this actually
comes down to it.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
I think it was Mahatma Gandhi, it would be, I mean,
but it wasn't. Did they did this for a reason.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
Because she's she's the it girl right now?
Speaker 5 (05:38):
Yeah, blonde hair, blue eyed, white girl saying good jeens.
Speaker 7 (05:41):
I mean, why why don't we talk about I mean,
this is more, you know, about pretty privilege than it
is about you know, Nazi propaganda.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
It starts off with her talking about her family giving
her the good genes.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Okay, and if you look at her, she has good gens.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Like, this is a surface level ad that people are
as signing things beneath the surface that I don't think
they intended. I don't think that this is some overarching
Nazi propaganda add that whoever the people were behind it
thought yeah, this is this is.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
What we're gonna do.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
We're gonna spread this message. No, it's a surface level ad.
Like I said, it's basic bitch marketing, and they didn't
expect that it was going to get this extreme backlash
from people taking more out of it than what they
put in.
Speaker 7 (06:30):
It's it's a joke from a forty year old movie
called The Big Chill where they want Kevin Klein's character
to father a child and they go, you've got good
jeans and he looks down at his blue jeans. It's
it's a it's a joke.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
So you're telling me that fifteen sixteen year old girls
right now will know that movie or or people that
because I didn't know the joke.
Speaker 5 (06:55):
Okay, So so you there's there's people in an advert.
Speaker 7 (07:00):
So let me So basically, what you're saying, is because
she's white, we can't say she has good genes.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
No, you can say however you want to, don't put
it in an ad.
Speaker 7 (07:10):
Okay, So you can't mar so marketing. You can't use
white people in marketing.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
So here's the problem, Trey. You're taking it to an extreme,
and I understand where you're coming from. Hang On, hang on,
hang on. That's how you take something out of it,
with the reaction from the crazy leftists saying this is
not too propaganda, when in reality, if you exclude people
from certain things, then you're kind of inviting this type
(07:38):
of backlash. Had they done the same ad campaign and
did it with three to four representative people from various ethnicities,
there would be absolutely zero issue. Instead, they focused on
the white part of it. And now they're they're playing, uh,
oh my god, we're shocked and.
Speaker 5 (07:56):
I'm gonna stop Trey right there.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
I'd be offended if they did that as well, because
now it sounds like you're playing to a demographic. It
sounds like you're playing to a race. No, but just
don't do Lots of companies do that. Yeah, I mean,
and I don't like that, but don't do me.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Fubu is pretty direct.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Who's still okay? I don't know. We went back to
nineteen ninety nine. No, but don't do this.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Where you're talking about my Listen to the ad again
and what she says and then she has good genes.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
That's just terrible. We're just in bad taste. So I'm
glad they pulled it because the well, they.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Haven't pulled the entire campaign. They they just pulled this
particular ad that I played for you. It's difficult for
you to find it online in its entirety. I pulled
it out of a news piece from page six. So
why is it bad for her to say it's good
genes or she has good jeens.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Because she's talking about being a white kid growing up
and now she has good genes.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
She never said.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Why when does she say she was okay when it
wouldn't color get into it?
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Uh, the minute you see her that that's that's a
bias on your end. Okay, I can agree with that,
but yeah, it's still a fact, Like I.
Speaker 7 (09:18):
Said, objectively, if you if if you look at it,
she's pretty, and you know you say, right, she's the
it girl right now. She she's generally even people think
she's fairly talented. If you take if you take color
out of it and objectively look at it, you would
say she has good genes. I mean, I don't know
her family medical history, but unless there's some you know,
weird disease lurking there, you know.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
So you're saying that the whole eugenic single wouldn't be
so bad if we all stemmed from Sydney sweety.
Speaker 5 (09:48):
We need to get her bath water, or.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
It's not just to bathe in.
Speaker 8 (10:00):
You're listening to the tea house visit is online at
Treehouse on air dot com.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Eight three to three cookdift W. That's the phone number
you will want to call Daniel Cook and get your
free roof inspection from cookdift W Roofing and Restoration. I'm
going to go out on a limb here, Daniel and
assume you've never stood outside during a hailstorm. Dan, I'd
be lying if I said no, All right, this commercial
(10:34):
took a turn. You're weird. Most sensible people don't go
outside during a hailstorm because it's dangerous. Your roof doesn't
get that option. It's out there all the time, taking
the beating. That's why it's so important to make sure
an expert takes a look at it to see what
(10:55):
kind of damage might have been done. Right, absolutely, I
mean shocked.
Speaker 9 (11:00):
I mean, now, we get a lot of small hell
storms through here, and the one I actually there's a couple. Now,
there's a couple of hell storms I go out into
and and and they hurt in a couple of but
I have a hard hat in my truck, and so
usually I've worn a hard hat and we've gone out
to it and and it's kind of fun to see
the big wind and blow you around and the hell hitting.
I mean, it hurts, it pelts you. It just depends
(11:22):
on the wind velocity. But yeah, so yeah, you definitely
want us to.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Come out and check.
Speaker 9 (11:27):
Not all hell damages your home. That's that's something a
lot of people have a you know, a wrong misconception on.
Just because you have a hell event at your house
doesn't mean you.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Have damage, you know.
Speaker 9 (11:37):
And sometimes people think they had a small hell and
actually the hell came down to eighty mile hour winds,
but it's still hurt the property.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
So there's a combination of.
Speaker 9 (11:44):
Different things, different factors. Just call us out, don't don't
don't try to figure it out yourself. We come out again.
We're going to show you what's wrong. If there's something wrong.
I don't recommend playing in Hell for everybody.

(12:43):
on that Sydney Sweeney American Eagle jeans ad bone, and
we'll get to more of it later, but right now
I know that Trey has a bit of a bone
to pick with me individually, because raj were out last
week and on Monday's show, we went through birthdays like
(13:04):
we do pretty much every day here inside the Treehouse,
and I mentioned that it was Elizabeth Berkeley's birthday. Elizabeth
Berkeley from Saved by the Bell and her most notorious
film role in Showgirls. Trey took the social media a
couple of days ago and lambasted me because his TV
(13:25):
suggested to him he should watch show Girls. How is
this my fault, Trey, because.
Speaker 7 (13:31):
The disease you carry of bad film watching has just
spread to all of us.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
I am not a virus tray. That is your algorithm
showing you what it thinks.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
You want to see.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
I would go more bacterial.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Than Yeah, that's actually not bad. If you just wash
your hands bore that, I can't get at you.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
Yeah. I don't know if a shot is going to
take care of this.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
I thought it was hysterical. It's a great little video
that you posted, and it's on your account at tree
Trinholm one. It's also on the Treehouse account at Treehouse
on Air where you blame me for your television suggesting
that you watch show Girls. Show Girls is not a
good movie. I never said it was a good movie.
(14:25):
All I said was, and I can pull the tape
if you want. Is that it's Elizabeth Berkley's birthday. She
is best known, probably as caffeine riddled Jesse on Saved
by the Bell, but She's also really well known for
one of the worst movies of all time, Showgirls, and
your TV thinks you want to see it, And now
that's my fault, and I'm I I'm offended. Where's my
(14:47):
woke mob.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Good jeans, your wolk mob is watching? Jim Cotta me.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
There actually was a pretty scared mob in that movie.
Just FYI, So that's possibly too soon.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
I did not remember that Showgirls was in C seventeen.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Oh yeah, it was a hard movie.
Speaker 5 (15:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
The uh, the reason I saw Showgirls is because I
knew it was in C seventeen and it had Jesse
from Saved by the Bell in a grown up role.
And I couldn't wait to see it because at the
time it came out, what was it ninety two or something?
I think I was twelve. I mean that's a sweet
spot in my adolescents. You're damn right, I want to
see Showgirls.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Oh that movie.
Speaker 7 (15:33):
So every pretty much every ticket sold was our age
range that wanted to see Jesse Nicket and.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Boy did we Yeah, you talk about worth the price
of admission? Who can you imagine what the ticket sales
would you imagine what the box office for Showgirls would
have been if they had Tiffany Amberthiesen in the lead
role instead of Elizabeth Berkley, Holy god, that would have
been great. Oh who I'm talking about good genes.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
I'll see you guys later.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Like even Lark Vorhees would have been like, yeah, I gad,
that's fair.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
But nobody's television's ever ever suggested to watch Showgirls like
Trays did.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Yeah, he says its fault it is, and I was wrong.
Show Girls came out in nineteen ninety five, even more
of a reason for me to see it. You talk
about being in the sweet spot of adolescents.
Speaker 7 (16:27):
Who you didn't even have to be adolessent. I mean,
like I said, if your gen X you wanted to
see Jesse Nickeett, like that.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Was just right, and that that Tray is not my fault.
It is not my fault that that movie got made.
It is not my fault that I saw that movie.
I never suggested that you see it. I just simply
stated a fact about Elizabeth Berkley in the middle of
mentioning it was her birthday.
Speaker 7 (16:54):
I think it's your love of bad movies why you
gravitated to that birthday.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Yeah, yeah, you can't have just said Saved by the Bell.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
No, I couldn't. You can't. You cannot talk about Elizabeth
Berkley and only mentioned Saved by the Bell. You have
to mention show Girls in the same sentence. If you don't,
you're an irresponsible journalist.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
And I'm sure she would appreciate it if you would
just bring up Saved by the Bell.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Well, we all don't get to pick and choose the
stories that are written about us.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
It's just a.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:29):
So when I saw when I saw the post, I
agreed with with Trey. I'm like, this had to be
either you were in his house and something was said, or.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
I'm not breaking into his house talking into his remote
and saying that.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
To show me show girls.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
Oh I think you are. I wouldn't doubt that for
a minute.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
After that happened, I actually shut down my computer just
to make sure.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
I threw it out and burned it, ped on it,
earned it some more, change the passwords, changed, the gate
code apartment.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
I did recognize it in the video. Trade doesn't mention
in the video that he and I are friends of
over twenty years, so he just mentions me as a fine,
fine gentleman. He does, Yeah, you casually distanced yourself from me.
Speaker 5 (18:23):
Like the rest of the cast of Saved by the
Bell did to her.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
It is pretty sad when they ostracized her, But all
you know, open arms for Screech and his struggles. But
did you watch it?
Speaker 2 (18:40):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Did you watch it when it came out in nineteen
ninety five or on VHS slash DVD roughly a year
six months two, a year later.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
I can't remember if.
Speaker 7 (18:52):
I don't think I saw it in the theater, but
I absolutely when it came out on VHS. I believe
that would at that time. Yes, yeah, I mean I
definitely didn't want Jesse huh.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Oh, No, he's saying he watched it.
Speaker 5 (19:05):
Oh you did.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (19:06):
I don't think I went to the theaters because I
think I remember getting slammed as just a horrible movie.
So I think I was like, I'll rent it.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
And I think that was a smart move because if
you go to a theater. Had you gone to a
theater to see show Girls in nineteen ninety five, you
would have run the risk of being next to a
pee wee.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Or people, or just being pee wee.

I'm Daniel Maley along with Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma
(20:25):
on Thursday, July thirty first, twenty twenty five. Just a
couple of days ago, tsunami evacuation orders. We're broadcast across
the Pacific because of an eight point eight earthquake in
Russia's far East. Luckily, within a number of hours those
tsunami evacuation orders were lifted in Hawaii and the West
(20:49):
United States waves tsunami waves still hit US shores after
that earthquake, but for the most part, from what I've seen,
roll in pardon the punt is no extensive damage or
uh life lost from the tsunami from that eight point
(21:10):
eight earthquake in Russia, but scary moments for a lot
of people that live on the in the Pacific region,
because I mean, eight point eight is nothing to shake
a stick at.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
Well, it's the second largest in history. I think the
one from Indonesia was nine point one nine point two.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Was that the one from like twenty something years ago
that sparked the deadly tsunamis?
Speaker 5 (21:34):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Okay, God, that was a nine yep who.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
And that was the largest in history at that moment,
So okay, now it's the second largest. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (21:48):
I saw a graphic they did, like the like top
ten worst earthquakes ever, and this one was I want
to say, Rogers right, tied for third.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
I mean, wow, eight point yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
I think the north Ridge earthquake in was a six
point four. Okay, just to give you an idea.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
And there's been lots of interesting stories coming out about
these tsunami warnings and evacuation orders as they hit the
Western United States, including Hawaii, obviously because it's right out
there in the middle of the Pacific in harm's way.
You had some locals claiming Oprah Winfrey, Oprah Winfrey's road.
(22:25):
Don't laugh at me.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
You say that.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
You say it. Say it, Dick. You talk as much
as I do, and you get every word right. So anyway,
a bunch of locals were claiming that Oprah Winfrey's road
see now say all three of those raj.
Speaker 5 (22:41):
Oprah Winfrey's road see not so easy, is it? It's okay,
I get the I get the little hiccup.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Oprah Winfrey's road was clothed. Anyway. Locals were claiming that
Oprah Winfrey's road was closed and therefore they couldn't make
it to high ground during these tsunami warnings. Oprah Winfrey's
people immediately came out and said, no, no, that's not true.
That road was open. As soon as we heard the warnings,
(23:08):
we contacted local emergency personnel and said the road is open,
free and clear. Please take this. Just don't just don't
come in the house.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Opebrius should have said Gail closed it.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Or blamed Stedman, the uh the other. The other interesting
story about this to come out of the tsunami warnings
was that wiki key tourists turned the tsunami warnings into
balcony parties when higher waves were expected to hit. A
(23:44):
reporter was live and Waikiki and was surprised to find
that people staying in higher floors of hotels were having
balcony parties. Where there's a disaster, there's going to be
partiers and the bar still open. If the bar is
still open, I mean that that that right there is
(24:06):
the reason why there is a waffle House index. People
gauge the severity or the expected severity of a storm
based on whether or not waffle House closes ahead of time.
If waffle House closes ahead of time, people bug out.
If waffle House is still open, then we're getting them
smothered and covered. Storm be damned.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (24:27):
There was one video of a guy he was just
like sitting on the sea wall, actually kind of kneeling,
videoing the ocean and you're just and it just you
start seeing the ocean rise. I would say it's probably
five foot and then you know it's waters up to
four feet three feet. Did you not see the videos
(24:50):
from from you know, Indonesia and that twenty years ago?
Speaker 3 (24:54):
Why why just just run if you see?
Speaker 1 (24:59):
Got to do it for I, but I got to
do it for the Graham.
Speaker 7 (25:02):
When the ocean draws back, run Look at atlant it's
winding up. Yeah, look at planet Earth like a giant wiener.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
If it is unsheathing. Run.
Speaker 5 (25:22):
That was really weird.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
When when the one the when the water recedes in
the ocean, you should not go walking out towards it
to see what what's the matter, Just go to the
opposite direction.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
That was literally the craziest thing. I think.
Speaker 7 (25:40):
I think it was uh natural. I think it was
nat Geo that did a documentary last year where they
they had gotten footage just all this home video footage
that people hadn't seen over twenty years from from the
Indonesian tsunami. And the craziest thing was I mean when
the ocean drew back, like it's hundreds of feet of
(26:03):
land you haven't seen ever run.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Yeah, just hearing you describe that gives me chills thinking
about standing someplace where you're like, oh, I used to
you know, bodyboard, maybe a little surfing, some paddle boarding,
and all of a sudden, hundreds of feet or hundreds
of yards of ocean draw back and I'm now seeing
things that were forty feet below the surface of the
(26:30):
ocean that I'm now seeing and the sun is shining
on it. Kind of a thing that's terrifying.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
And people were walking out there, yeah, like oh, look, unexplored.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Territory unless there is some Jewish man with a big
stick standing in the middle of it, asking for God's
help to receive these waters. Don't walk out there.
Speaker 7 (26:55):
Now, I'm pretty sure at that point even Moses have
been like, higher ground, We're out.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Yeah, I'm go back up and take a look at
these commandments on the top of this mountain.
Speaker 5 (27:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
When I when you see that pull back, I don't
know what the curiosity is, like, what's going on? Like
I wouldn't have that. I'd be like, Okay, so we're leaving.
So this was our day at the beach. I'll see
you guys later.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Don't you hate it when you go to the beach
and the ocean leaves days over?
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Man, just go home.
Speaker 5 (27:32):
Yeah, that's exactly right.

(28:28):
talking about that eight point eight magnitude earthquake that hit
Russia that sent tsunami warnings throughout the Pacific region. And
in the aftermath of those tsunami warnings, roj you said
you saw something pretty interesting.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
Uh no, I'm just talking about the documentary that Trey
was watching. If you Indonesia, when the ocean recedes, you
can still see people like coming. I guess it was
like a walk up bar and you can still see
people like grabbing their drinks and sitting down as that
ocean receip and then a giant wall of water is
(29:03):
coming to you and they're just sitting there and in
loungers they brought.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Yeah, they brought beach chairs.
Speaker 5 (29:09):
Oh yeah, yeah, wells going on.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
I was gonna say, if you've ever gone to an
all inclusive resort, it's hard to get those loungers. So
when one comes open, you gotta go for it. Uh yeah,
if you're bringing your Yeah, if you're bringing your own
what was that? Ra I said?
Speaker 4 (29:29):
How good was that drink? I gotta sit and I'm
just gonna watch this water come right towards me. But
this is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
This is this is tasty. It's so refreshing, not as
refreshing as the one hundred foot wall of water is
going to be when it crushes you. That is a
great question, though, It's like that would actually make for
a terror like a really really good terrible resort ad
where you show those people walking out onto the beach
with their with their drinks and say, here, here at
(30:03):
the Sri Lanka Lakina, the drinks are so good you'll
brave a tsunami for our ocean side beverages.
Speaker 5 (30:17):
That's a fantastic joke. By the way, there was no
fat in.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
That at all.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
It's an ad campaign waiting to happen.
Speaker 7 (30:29):
That'll it's a fascinating documentary because the other thing that's
just crazy is when the people that are higher up
in the balconies whatever start yelling at the people on
the beach run and they don't want to spill their drinks,
so they just start Some of them just start casually
walking back.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Like fast walking, but still sipping out of the straw, not.
Speaker 7 (30:50):
Even fast walking. They don't start fast walking until they
realize it's too late. I mean sadly, but yeah, it's
it's like, let's see the oceans just sucked back like
two hundred feet from where.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
It normally is. People are yelling at you to run.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
Can I get another shri lunkan sprints?
Speaker 5 (31:08):
Please off another white claw?
Speaker 1 (31:11):
H Speaking of spritzes, have you guys heard of the
trailer park sprits. This is apparently the new drink of
the summer, the trailer park Sprits. However, some experts are
calling it a recession indicator. No more apparol for you
(31:35):
this year. Some people might argue that it's the Hugo Sprits,
or perhaps the paper Plane, which was crowned twenty twenty
five's drink of the year. Yet, with rising costs of
inflation and ensuing shrinking while it's a lot of people
are turning to the Spaghette, a Miller high life with
a splash of apparol and a squeeze of lemon, as
(31:55):
a more budget friendly option for a refreshing hot weather bev.
That's a to business insider. So the trailer park Sprits
is a Miller high Life with a splash of aparol
and a squeeze of lemon, and it's taking the summer
by storm. It's also known as the NASCAR and the gronie.
Speaker 5 (32:19):
I'm so glad that sentence ended the way it did.
Speaker 9 (32:22):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Yeah, that could have that could have that could have
had a real dangerous left turn.
Speaker 5 (32:28):
What is apparrel? I don't know what that is.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
It's a liqueur, okay, basically kind of a strawberry root.
Speaker 4 (32:35):
Oh, a little Miller highline, a little strawberry and lemon wedge.
Don't forget that, oh lemon wedge. Yeah, stay classy.
Speaker 5 (32:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
But by the way, aparol is not tasty, remember.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
Like that's.
Speaker 5 (32:51):
It's like a grenadine or something like that.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
No, that tastes delicious because it's full of sugar. Uh.
And grenadine doesn't have any have any liquor in it.
It's just it's just a pure mainline diabetes bringer. Yeah,
but that's that. The grenadine is what's going to make
a lot of things taste good and turn pinkish. Now,
it's like there's an apparel sprits, which I've heard people
(33:18):
order for years and I've never had one. Uh. Then
had a friend ordered just an apparol, like just a
little bit of aperrel, and I don't know why, but
that's what they had. And I was like I've never
had that. Can I have a little sip of that?
They said, you're here, you go, and I'm sure they
were fine with it because it tastes terrible. It just
it's there. Like Trey said, it's sort of a strawberry flavor.
(33:40):
I didn't get any of that, mainly just because I
have a terrible palette.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
Well no, it's I misspoke. It's a more of an
orange liquor.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
Well orange. I'm glad I didn't drink all of it, but.
Speaker 3 (33:55):
Some people love it.
Speaker 5 (33:56):
I mean, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
So there's the apparalls, which is apparol and what else Trey.
Speaker 5 (34:03):
Club soda.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
I mean, you can do soda water, or you can
do some wine.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
That's what I usually see it done with.
Speaker 5 (34:16):
Yeah, mixed wine wine like interesting.
Speaker 3 (34:20):
The sprits thing has multiple variations.
Speaker 5 (34:23):
Yeah, joscha.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
Uh So, anyway, if you guys want to try, well,
not you, Trey, because you've been sober almost nine years. Uh,
if you want to try the NASCAR and the Groni
also known as the trailer Park sprits. There you have
the recipe. It's a Miller high Life, which is of
course the champagne apparol and a lemon wedge.
Speaker 5 (34:47):
Where would you order this at? Like what Bard knows this.
Speaker 3 (34:52):
Aperol sprits.
Speaker 5 (34:53):
No, no, no, the trailer park, oh sprits.
Speaker 3 (34:59):
Finding a bar that carries mg ds is pretty hard.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
Go to the obvious. Go to Mecca, Texas Motor Speedway. Oh,
I mean, just imagine being on the infield and you're
making them yourself on the infield and you hang a
sign that says NASCAR and the Groni's sold here. Oh yeah,
You'll have a line all the way out of the
(35:26):
U course.
Speaker 3 (35:29):
And people really disappointed at a drink.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
Kind of an offentness.

twenty five. Let's celebrate today with some Earth Days. Rico
(36:32):
Rodriguez the second is twenty seven years old today. He
is best and I believe only known for playing Manny
Delgado on Modern Family. So the actor Rico Rodriguez, the
second who plays Manny Delgado on Modern Family, turns twenty
seven today. It's also a good offspring birthday day, not
(36:54):
the band actual offspring. Ruby Modine is thirty five. She's
Matthew Modine's daughter. She was the killer in the first
Happy Death Day. She was also a waitress named Sierra
on Shameless. Matthew Modine, by the way, really hasn't really
had too much of a dry spell in his career.
It's been pretty consistent, and then he had a huge
(37:15):
resurgence as Papa on Stranger Things, which leads me to
ask you, guys, have you seen the teaser for Stranger
Things five? About last week? I believe and last I saw?
It had over twenty million views on YouTube. So if
you Trey I know you're a Stranger Things watcher, the
season five teaser you can take a look at on YouTube.
(37:39):
Another offspring birthday. Zelda Williams turns thirty six. She's Robin
Williams's daughter. She was on the Freedom series Dead of
Summer and has guest starred on teen Wolf and Stitchers.
So Zelda Williams, daughter of Robin Turns thirty six today.
She plays Stacey in the Pitch Perfect movies. Alexis Nap
is also thirty six from Avenged Sevenfold. Im Shadows is
(38:03):
forty four.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
Good for him?
Speaker 5 (38:04):
What's a Cool Name?
Speaker 1 (38:07):
Bj Novak is forty six today, best known as Ryan
on the Office, he is a writer producer extraordinaire. In
addition to work on the Office, he did a lot
of work on the Mendi project as well, and he
had a movie come out last year. I can't remember
the name of it, but it was supposed to be good.
That's as much as I know about it. Country superstar
(38:27):
Zach Brown is forty seven. Dean Kin former Superman from
Lewis and Clark and Kara's dad on Supergirl, and Fox
News contributor Dean Kin is fifty nine to day. He
stuck his name in the middle of the Superman controversy
two weeks ago by saying that Superman is super woke
(38:50):
because of a pro immigrant agenda. Tell me you hadn't
seen the movie without telling me you hadn't seen the movie,
Jesus christ Man, just stop it, Just stop fanning the
culture war flames. I'm tired of this stuff. Anyone that
even thought the movie was going to be that and
went into the movie ready to be angry and bust
(39:11):
out the Superman super woke Pitchforks should have seen the
movie and said, no, it's not. He's just a big
blue boy scout. By the way, it was a nickname
for him in the comic books. What they did was
is they picked up on the one word that director
James Gutten shouldn't have used when describing Superman, and that
(39:31):
was an immigrant. Even though, by the way, it's true,
if you are just learning that Superman is an illegal alien,
I believe the problem is you Superman has always been
an illegal alien and he's clearly not going anywhere. So
(39:52):
if you're running around wearing a deport Superman t shirt,
I know you have not seen the movie. All right,
off my siltbox on that one. Jk. Rowling is a
sixty man. This is an interesting day for birthdays, for controversy.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
JK.
Speaker 1 (40:06):
Rowling versus trans people, Dean Kane versus Superman. This is fun.
You two going at it over Sidney Sweeney's jeans. What
a fun day in the treehouse. Mark Cuban turned sixty seven.
What a dick.
Speaker 3 (40:27):
Sorry.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
The only reason I say that, The only reason I
say that is because I really wish he had not
sold the Mavericks to the Addlesons. That is a horrible, horrible,
horrible group of people to have purchased them maps. Not
because of anything politically, but because they did what I
hate when big corporate things, when big corporate companies do
stupid things thinking they know better than everybody else. Yes,
I'm talking about them trading Luca. They didn't think the
(40:52):
blowback was going to be a big deal. Guess what
it was. And then an ultimate corporate irony, they get
gifted on a lege less than two percent chance of
getting the top pick in the NBA draft. They get it,
and they pick up the next great White Hope in
Cooper Flag. That's why I think Mark Cuban the dick.
(41:14):
Otherwise he's a really good person. I appreciate what he's
trying to do with prescription drug prices. I just wish
he hadn't sold the MAVs to the Addlestons, who then
made the biggest sports blunder in DFW history.
Speaker 3 (41:25):
Yeah, but don't don't.
Speaker 5 (41:26):
I mean.
Speaker 7 (41:28):
Cuban was around, I know he says he wasn't consulted
on it, but uh, it wasn't what's his name like?
Didn't Cuban say yes, he was going to be a
good GM.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
He was until he wasn't.
Speaker 3 (41:42):
Well, you know, isn't that always the case?
Speaker 1 (41:47):
I honestly don't know.
Speaker 7 (41:49):
I mean, let me unless you're Jerry Jones. You know,
typically people are you know, all gms are good until
they're not.
Speaker 1 (41:57):
And one would argue that most gms are bad because
the shelf lives for general managers and professional sports is
probably about the same for NFL players longevity, which is
around three and a half years.
Speaker 7 (42:12):
And I will still say this, as much as everyone
hates to say it, that is a trade that you
really can't fully judge, probably until a year or two
from now. If Luca completely breaks down, people are gonna go,
all right, maybe you know, they knew something that we didn't.
Speaker 1 (42:30):
I don't necessarily think it'll be of just a bonus.
I don't think it'll be a breakdown factor for Luca.
If he ends up back in a Lakers uniform having
gained sixty pounds and eaten his feelings and perhaps a
couple of teammates, then yeah, they can point and say, see,
we were right, but they don't get to then point
(42:53):
their finger and say, look how great it turned out.
This was our plan the whole time to luck into
the top pick in the NBA draft with a less
than two percent chance. Basically, it was bad behavior being rewarded.
And so they can't point and say this is their
grand plan the entire time, because it wasn't. They said
their grand plan was to double down on defense by
(43:15):
getting rid of liability Luca, and then within two weeks
of getting the best defensive guy in the league, he
was broke down because he got a sad groin.
Speaker 11 (43:26):
I hope the MAVs do a good jeens ad who
they need to star in it though, Cooper Flag Well,
that is the obvious choice.

I said earlier that there was more white meat on
that Sydney Sweeney American Eagle Jeans ad Bone, So let's
get back into it, Trey. Do you still feel like
(45:31):
that it's a woke mob going a little too Frankenstein?
Speaker 3 (45:37):
Yeah, I mean I think people.
Speaker 7 (45:41):
If you don't like the ad, that's fine, But I
don't think there was Nazi propaganda behind it.
Speaker 3 (45:48):
I don't think Again, she's the it girl right now.
Speaker 1 (45:54):
Do you think that it is similar to I don't
think they intended it to be Nazi propaganda, But do
you think it is similar to Nazi propaganda promoting a
supreme race?
Speaker 3 (46:07):
No, they're promoting a mediocre gene.
Speaker 4 (46:13):
Raj your counterpoint, No, I mean, I'll stand by it.
It is I mean, it's clearly racist. It's clearly I
don't know Nazi propaganda, but I mean it's I mean,
it's promoting like we are the supreme gene, we are
the supreme gene, we are the supreme race.
Speaker 3 (46:33):
Whatever else it says, good genes?
Speaker 4 (46:36):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (46:36):
Is it a blind spot? Is it a blind spot
for some Caucasians to not realize what it is that
we're doing by saying, hey, look there's this chicks, You've
got really good genes. Isn't that clever without thinking about
the fact that they're unintentionally promoting the whiteness.
Speaker 3 (47:00):
Why can't it she?
Speaker 7 (47:01):
Just like I said, by most any metric you would
judge a person jeans, you would say she has good
genes take color out?
Speaker 5 (47:11):
Are we judging people on jeans?
Speaker 11 (47:13):
Like?
Speaker 5 (47:14):
Why why are we doing that again?
Speaker 1 (47:16):
And by jeans you mean the g E N E
s as the genetics.
Speaker 4 (47:19):
Okay, why are we doing the Why are we doing
that again? Because that's what that's what, that's how that
started over there?
Speaker 3 (47:26):
First of all, it really you want to get back
it started here?
Speaker 5 (47:33):
What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (47:34):
I mean eugenics wasn't something that Hitler came up with.
That was Woodrow Wilson was a big proponent of it.
Speaker 5 (47:41):
That was the Klan.
Speaker 4 (47:42):
That wasn't That doesn't make it its Woodrow Wilson not
the Klan. Yeah, Woods Woods, Well, I mean he was
a big supporter of the clan. I mean I think
he had what was the movie that was You're.
Speaker 3 (47:55):
But again they're not saying she's white. She said good jeans.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
So and that's why I'm asking, and that's why I'm asking, Right,
is it a blind spot for white people to say
it's not that? But we don't see it, We don't
see it as tone deaf?
Speaker 5 (48:10):
That is correct.
Speaker 3 (48:11):
So if if it had been a person of color,
it would it be Okay.
Speaker 5 (48:16):
They wouldn't have made that ad.
Speaker 4 (48:22):
Why again, you're doing hypotheticals like if I was seven
feet tall, I'd be dunking, you know what I mean.
They wouldn't have made that ad. They picked that ad,
they picked those words, They picked that.
Speaker 3 (48:35):
Choice because she's the it girl right now.
Speaker 5 (48:41):
Okay, and the market's fine for it. And it's okay.
Speaker 4 (48:47):
That's what the dan's saying. It's a blind spot, you guys, aren't.
You're not seeing it.
Speaker 5 (48:51):
That's the first thing I saw.
Speaker 1 (48:53):
And I think the reason why I bring that up
is because one, I enjoy stirring this melting pot here
inside the tree.
Speaker 2 (49:00):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (49:01):
And two it's because if if you have not been
discriminated against, it's hard to see discrimination on a huge
billboard in the middle of Times Square, which is what
I'm gleaning from the people that are outraged about this ad.
While keeping in mind, I would like to also maintain
(49:23):
my firm position on this fence in saying I don't
think they intended it to be racist. And I also
think if you're super super mad about this, then you
should consider yourself lucky that this is the thing that's
got you angriest today.
Speaker 5 (49:39):
Yes, I'll agree with that, yeah for sure.
Speaker 7 (49:44):
If it's Yeah, if it's that if it don't buy
an American eagle, like if there, I don't know anyone
that does well.
Speaker 1 (49:52):
Again, this was their big swing again.
Speaker 7 (49:57):
One of those things someone you know, calm it on
a post I made about this, like so, yeah, people
are talking about their company. They're they're getting more press
yeah than that than they could have ever hoped for.
Speaker 5 (50:12):
Oh so interesting how that happened? Like they by accident?
Speaker 1 (50:16):
Okay, Oh I think it was. Yeah, I think it
was absolutely not. I think the reason why I think
it was. I don't think this is some grand plan.
The reason why is because the ad is utter crap.
It's like it's like I said earlier, this is basic
bitch marketing. I have any anthea, Let's do blue eyes
and blue denim and good genes and good genes haha, and.
Speaker 4 (50:40):
A toxic society right now and the way things are going. Yeah,
that was done on purpose. They have they have marketing
groups like they have.
Speaker 1 (50:48):
They do people and we've known many of those people,
I think. And one of the problems that society has
these days is it gives too much credit to idiots.
Sometimes people just do something real effing dumb, and there
was no master plan. Involved in it, and I think
this is one of those cases.
Speaker 7 (51:07):
It's an old joke, it's not I think someone was
being cute and and I don't think there was ill intent.
I don't think there was a racial element to it.
I think they saw Sidney Sweeney, like I said, Gez,
kind of.
Speaker 3 (51:22):
The four where old movie.
Speaker 4 (51:24):
It's all Sidney Sweeney and a forty year old movie,
and decided to put that together.
Speaker 1 (51:28):
Honestly, I don't even know if they know about the
Big Chill that Bad Trey's talking about. But I only
would I would argue that I doubt the Big Chill
was the first time anyone ever made the connection between
genes of pants and jeens genetics. The fact is someone
thought of it and thought it was super clever, and
it's not as clever as they thought it was, and
they put it in this ad, and now they're dealing
(51:50):
with all this backlash. Yeah, and again, I think I
think a large part of it is people that are
being super outraged by it are giving too much credit
thinking that there was some sort of master Nazi propaganda
racist ad machine going on in here. I think it
was because some jackass ad executive thought he had an
(52:13):
award winning idea based on an old trope.
Speaker 7 (52:16):
I mean, Dad, what you said, and I agree with you,
is that you're giving people too much credit for being like,
you know, mad scientists, evil geniuses. It's like the government,
you know everyone. There's some big cabal, but most of
them are idiots.
Speaker 1 (52:30):
Exactly. There's no deep state. It's very shallow.
Speaker 3 (52:32):
Yeah, and you know what, they still find a way.
Speaker 1 (52:35):
To drown themselves in him and the country with it.
Speaker 5 (52:38):
There's no deep state.
Speaker 1 (52:39):
It's right there in like two inches of water which
you can still drown.
Speaker 3 (52:41):
And we are it's a shallow gene pool.
Speaker 1 (52:47):
Well, I'm sure glad we cracked that nut today. For

It is time to leave your warriors outside and laugh
with us inside the treehouse. I'm Dan, O'Malley, along with
Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma. Today is Thursday, July thirty first,
twenty twenty five. And you know it wouldn't be a
(00:40):
Thursday in America without some new battle in the ongoing
culture war. American Eagles new ad campaign starring Sydney Sweeney
has the woke mob claiming racism and Nazi propaganda.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
It's done from parents to offspring, often determining trade. It's
like her color, personality and even eye color. My jeans are.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
Blue, Sidney's Sweeney hasburg Keynes.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
You guys are complaining about that Sydney Sweeney jeans, and
so I went and saw it.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
That's Nazi propaganda.
Speaker 6 (01:19):
Wow, I will be the friend that's two woke because
those Sydney Sweeney American Eagle ads are weird, like fascist, weird,
like Nazi propaganda weird. This is Nazi.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
Pure Nazi, all right, gentlemen, is American Eagles new ad
campaign starring Sydney Sweeney Nazi propaganda. Raj, We'll start with you, yes, Trey, no,
all right, now, let's get it on.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
I like how you're Bruce Buffer in this moment.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Yeah, yeah, Okay, briefly tell me why you think this
is notazo propaganda.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Just play the commercial again and think of it that
way in a second, because she they changed the commercial
because it was just good jeans, good jeans, good jeans,
over and over again.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
So they've changed this commercial.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Well, this is the one that's out there, and they've
actually pulled this.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Ad from parents to offspring, often determining traits like her color, personality,
and even eye color.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
A blonde hair, blue eyed girl.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Blue city Sweeney Hasbury Keynes, M.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
There you go, yep, yep. Had the ad campaign been
jeans for white girls, would that have been okay?
Speaker 5 (02:47):
I don't know what that means.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Well, that's basically I mean, if you're saying that it's
not too propaganda stuff, then that's sort of an implied
message being sent by American eagle. It's saying, look, these
genes are for white women. The other side of it
is like you're saying, is that, well, this is clearly
saying that blonde hair, blue eyed, white skin is the
good genes is okay, So here's no hang on, Trey,
(03:14):
let me say this and I'm gonna come to you.
I don't think this is not too propaganda. I also
don't think that this is a good ad. I'm more
offended at the basic bitch marketing denim jeans, human gens,
blue eyes, blue denim. I have an amazing idea. Let's
charge millions of dollars as an ad agency to American
(03:36):
Eagle and this will anyway. The flip side is on
the the woke part of it. The this is not
too propaganda thing is just because this ad says Sidney
Sweeney has good genes, doesn't mean you, as a person
of color, don't. Okay, They're just saying Sidney Sweeney has
(04:00):
good genes, and people are are are putting things in
there which are their own biases.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
But that's how propaganda works, right, That's how it works.
It's it's telling it's a select market that you have
good genes.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
It is, but that's more of an implied thing. When
you within, you then have to add in your part
that says because you don't. The Nazi propaganda part is
the Nazis saying arians are the best and we're going
to prove it, and then we're going to murder anybody.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Else, and that's what they said, and I agree with
that Arians are the best because I'm Rian.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
I don't know if you know Iran Well.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Hitler's version was a little different than the history the name, Yeah, Trey,
is this Nazi propaganda? No? Why?
Speaker 7 (04:49):
First of all, by any objective definition, she has good genes, like,
she's pretty talented. That's what you would say if that
had backs.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Everything you just said is very subjective.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
Sure, not really.
Speaker 7 (05:05):
I mean, I think most people would agree she's attractive.
It's a pretty girl.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Okay, most people think, you know, she has some talent.
Speaker 7 (05:15):
So let me so let me ask you a question.
If let's say, if that had been Zoe Kravitz, okay, then.
Speaker 5 (05:23):
But it wasn't.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Okay, that's but that's so so you know, this actually
comes down to it.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
I think it was Mahatma Gandhi, it would be, I mean,
but it wasn't. Did they did this for a reason.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
Because she's she's the it girl right now?
Speaker 5 (05:38):
Yeah, blonde hair, blue eyed, white girl saying good jeens.
Speaker 7 (05:41):
I mean, why why don't we talk about I mean,
this is more, you know, about pretty privilege than it
is about you know, Nazi propaganda.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
It starts off with her talking about her family giving
her the good genes.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Okay, and if you look at her, she has good gens.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Like, this is a surface level ad that people are
as signing things beneath the surface that I don't think
they intended. I don't think that this is some overarching
Nazi propaganda add that whoever the people were behind it
thought yeah, this is this is.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
What we're gonna do.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
We're gonna spread this message. No, it's a surface level ad.
Like I said, it's basic bitch marketing, and they didn't
expect that it was going to get this extreme backlash
from people taking more out of it than what they
put in.
Speaker 7 (06:30):
It's it's a joke from a forty year old movie
called The Big Chill where they want Kevin Klein's character
to father a child and they go, you've got good
jeans and he looks down at his blue jeans. It's
it's a it's a joke.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
So you're telling me that fifteen sixteen year old girls
right now will know that movie or or people that
because I didn't know the joke.
Speaker 5 (06:55):
Okay, So so you there's there's people in an advert.
Speaker 7 (07:00):
So let me So basically, what you're saying, is because
she's white, we can't say she has good genes.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
No, you can say however you want to, don't put
it in an ad.
Speaker 7 (07:10):
Okay, So you can't mar so marketing. You can't use
white people in marketing.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
So here's the problem, Trey. You're taking it to an extreme,
and I understand where you're coming from. Hang On, hang on,
hang on. That's how you take something out of it,
with the reaction from the crazy leftists saying this is
not too propaganda, when in reality, if you exclude people
from certain things, then you're kind of inviting this type
(07:38):
of backlash. Had they done the same ad campaign and
did it with three to four representative people from various ethnicities,
there would be absolutely zero issue. Instead, they focused on
the white part of it. And now they're they're playing, uh,
oh my god, we're shocked and.
Speaker 5 (07:56):
I'm gonna stop Trey right there.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
I'd be offended if they did that as well, because
now it sounds like you're playing to a demographic. It
sounds like you're playing to a race. No, but just
don't do Lots of companies do that. Yeah, I mean,
and I don't like that, but don't do me.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Fubu is pretty direct.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Who's still okay? I don't know. We went back to
nineteen ninety nine. No, but don't do this.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Where you're talking about my Listen to the ad again
and what she says and then she has good genes.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
That's just terrible. We're just in bad taste. So I'm
glad they pulled it because the well, they.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Haven't pulled the entire campaign. They they just pulled this
particular ad that I played for you. It's difficult for
you to find it online in its entirety. I pulled
it out of a news piece from page six. So
why is it bad for her to say it's good
genes or she has good jeens.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Because she's talking about being a white kid growing up
and now she has good genes.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
She never said.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Why when does she say she was okay when it
wouldn't color get into it?
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Uh, the minute you see her that that's that's a
bias on your end. Okay, I can agree with that,
but yeah, it's still a fact, Like I.
Speaker 7 (09:18):
Said, objectively, if you if if you look at it,
she's pretty, and you know you say, right, she's the
it girl right now. She she's generally even people think
she's fairly talented. If you take if you take color
out of it and objectively look at it, you would
say she has good genes. I mean, I don't know
her family medical history, but unless there's some you know,
weird disease lurking there, you know.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
So you're saying that the whole eugenic single wouldn't be
so bad if we all stemmed from Sydney sweety.
Speaker 5 (09:48):
We need to get her bath water, or.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
It's not just to bathe in.
Speaker 8 (10:00):
You're listening to the tea house visit is online at
Treehouse on air dot com.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Eight three to three cookdift W. That's the phone number
you will want to call Daniel Cook and get your
free roof inspection from cookdift W Roofing and Restoration. I'm
going to go out on a limb here, Daniel and
assume you've never stood outside during a hailstorm. Dan, I'd
be lying if I said no, All right, this commercial
(10:34):
took a turn. You're weird. Most sensible people don't go
outside during a hailstorm because it's dangerous. Your roof doesn't
get that option. It's out there all the time, taking
the beating. That's why it's so important to make sure
an expert takes a look at it to see what
(10:55):
kind of damage might have been done. Right, absolutely, I
mean shocked.
Speaker 9 (11:00):
I mean, now, we get a lot of small hell
storms through here, and the one I actually there's a couple. Now,
there's a couple of hell storms I go out into
and and and they hurt in a couple of but
I have a hard hat in my truck, and so
usually I've worn a hard hat and we've gone out
to it and and it's kind of fun to see
the big wind and blow you around and the hell hitting.
I mean, it hurts, it pelts you. It just depends
(11:22):
on the wind velocity. But yeah, so yeah, you definitely
want us to.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Come out and check.
Speaker 9 (11:27):
Not all hell damages your home. That's that's something a
lot of people have a you know, a wrong misconception on.
Just because you have a hell event at your house
doesn't mean you.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Have damage, you know.
Speaker 9 (11:37):
And sometimes people think they had a small hell and
actually the hell came down to eighty mile hour winds,
but it's still hurt the property.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
So there's a combination of.
Speaker 9 (11:44):
Different things, different factors. Just call us out, don't don't
don't try to figure it out yourself. We come out again.
We're going to show you what's wrong. If there's something wrong.
I don't recommend playing in Hell for everybody.

(12:43):
on that Sydney Sweeney American Eagle jeans ad bone, and
we'll get to more of it later, but right now
I know that Trey has a bit of a bone
to pick with me individually, because raj were out last
week and on Monday's show, we went through birthdays like
(13:04):
we do pretty much every day here inside the Treehouse,
and I mentioned that it was Elizabeth Berkeley's birthday. Elizabeth
Berkeley from Saved by the Bell and her most notorious
film role in Showgirls. Trey took the social media a
couple of days ago and lambasted me because his TV
(13:25):
suggested to him he should watch show Girls. How is
this my fault, Trey, because.
Speaker 7 (13:31):
The disease you carry of bad film watching has just
spread to all of us.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
I am not a virus tray. That is your algorithm
showing you what it thinks.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
You want to see.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
I would go more bacterial.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Than Yeah, that's actually not bad. If you just wash
your hands bore that, I can't get at you.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
Yeah. I don't know if a shot is going to
take care of this.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
I thought it was hysterical. It's a great little video
that you posted, and it's on your account at tree
Trinholm one. It's also on the Treehouse account at Treehouse
on Air where you blame me for your television suggesting
that you watch show Girls. Show Girls is not a
good movie. I never said it was a good movie.
(14:25):
All I said was, and I can pull the tape
if you want. Is that it's Elizabeth Berkley's birthday. She
is best known, probably as caffeine riddled Jesse on Saved
by the Bell, but She's also really well known for
one of the worst movies of all time, Showgirls, and
your TV thinks you want to see it, And now
that's my fault, and I'm I I'm offended. Where's my
(14:47):
woke mob.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Good jeans, your wolk mob is watching? Jim Cotta me.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
There actually was a pretty scared mob in that movie.
Just FYI, So that's possibly too soon.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
I did not remember that Showgirls was in C seventeen.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Oh yeah, it was a hard movie.
Speaker 5 (15:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
The uh, the reason I saw Showgirls is because I
knew it was in C seventeen and it had Jesse
from Saved by the Bell in a grown up role.
And I couldn't wait to see it because at the
time it came out, what was it ninety two or something?
I think I was twelve. I mean that's a sweet
spot in my adolescents. You're damn right, I want to
see Showgirls.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Oh that movie.
Speaker 7 (15:33):
So every pretty much every ticket sold was our age
range that wanted to see Jesse Nicket and.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Boy did we Yeah, you talk about worth the price
of admission? Who can you imagine what the ticket sales
would you imagine what the box office for Showgirls would
have been if they had Tiffany Amberthiesen in the lead
role instead of Elizabeth Berkley, Holy god, that would have
been great. Oh who I'm talking about good genes.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
I'll see you guys later.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Like even Lark Vorhees would have been like, yeah, I gad,
that's fair.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
But nobody's television's ever ever suggested to watch Showgirls like
Trays did.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Yeah, he says its fault it is, and I was wrong.
Show Girls came out in nineteen ninety five, even more
of a reason for me to see it. You talk
about being in the sweet spot of adolescents.
Speaker 7 (16:27):
Who you didn't even have to be adolessent. I mean,
like I said, if your gen X you wanted to
see Jesse Nickeett, like that.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Was just right, and that that Tray is not my fault.
It is not my fault that that movie got made.
It is not my fault that I saw that movie.
I never suggested that you see it. I just simply
stated a fact about Elizabeth Berkley in the middle of
mentioning it was her birthday.
Speaker 7 (16:54):
I think it's your love of bad movies why you
gravitated to that birthday.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Yeah, yeah, you can't have just said Saved by the Bell.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
No, I couldn't. You can't. You cannot talk about Elizabeth
Berkley and only mentioned Saved by the Bell. You have
to mention show Girls in the same sentence. If you don't,
you're an irresponsible journalist.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
And I'm sure she would appreciate it if you would
just bring up Saved by the Bell.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Well, we all don't get to pick and choose the
stories that are written about us.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
It's just a.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:29):
So when I saw when I saw the post, I
agreed with with Trey. I'm like, this had to be
either you were in his house and something was said, or.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
I'm not breaking into his house talking into his remote
and saying that.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
To show me show girls.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
Oh I think you are. I wouldn't doubt that for
a minute.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
After that happened, I actually shut down my computer just
to make sure.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
I threw it out and burned it, ped on it,
earned it some more, change the passwords, changed, the gate
code apartment.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
I did recognize it in the video. Trade doesn't mention
in the video that he and I are friends of
over twenty years, so he just mentions me as a fine,
fine gentleman. He does, Yeah, you casually distanced yourself from me.
Speaker 5 (18:23):
Like the rest of the cast of Saved by the
Bell did to her.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
It is pretty sad when they ostracized her, But all
you know, open arms for Screech and his struggles. But
did you watch it?
Speaker 2 (18:40):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Did you watch it when it came out in nineteen
ninety five or on VHS slash DVD roughly a year
six months two, a year later.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
I can't remember if.
Speaker 7 (18:52):
I don't think I saw it in the theater, but
I absolutely when it came out on VHS. I believe
that would at that time. Yes, yeah, I mean I
definitely didn't want Jesse huh.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Oh, No, he's saying he watched it.
Speaker 5 (19:05):
Oh you did.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (19:06):
I don't think I went to the theaters because I
think I remember getting slammed as just a horrible movie.
So I think I was like, I'll rent it.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
And I think that was a smart move because if
you go to a theater. Had you gone to a
theater to see show Girls in nineteen ninety five, you
would have run the risk of being next to a
pee wee.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Or people, or just being pee wee.

I'm Daniel Maley along with Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma
(20:25):
on Thursday, July thirty first, twenty twenty five. Just a
couple of days ago, tsunami evacuation orders. We're broadcast across
the Pacific because of an eight point eight earthquake in
Russia's far East. Luckily, within a number of hours those
tsunami evacuation orders were lifted in Hawaii and the West
(20:49):
United States waves tsunami waves still hit US shores after
that earthquake, but for the most part, from what I've seen,
roll in pardon the punt is no extensive damage or
uh life lost from the tsunami from that eight point
(21:10):
eight earthquake in Russia, but scary moments for a lot
of people that live on the in the Pacific region,
because I mean, eight point eight is nothing to shake
a stick at.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
Well, it's the second largest in history. I think the
one from Indonesia was nine point one nine point two.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Was that the one from like twenty something years ago
that sparked the deadly tsunamis?
Speaker 5 (21:34):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Okay, God, that was a nine yep who.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
And that was the largest in history at that moment,
So okay, now it's the second largest. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (21:48):
I saw a graphic they did, like the like top
ten worst earthquakes ever, and this one was I want
to say, Rogers right, tied for third.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
I mean, wow, eight point yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
I think the north Ridge earthquake in was a six
point four. Okay, just to give you an idea.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
And there's been lots of interesting stories coming out about
these tsunami warnings and evacuation orders as they hit the
Western United States, including Hawaii, obviously because it's right out
there in the middle of the Pacific in harm's way.
You had some locals claiming Oprah Winfrey, Oprah Winfrey's road.
(22:25):
Don't laugh at me.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
You say that.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
You say it. Say it, Dick. You talk as much
as I do, and you get every word right. So anyway,
a bunch of locals were claiming that Oprah Winfrey's road
see now say all three of those raj.
Speaker 5 (22:41):
Oprah Winfrey's road see not so easy, is it? It's okay,
I get the I get the little hiccup.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Oprah Winfrey's road was clothed. Anyway. Locals were claiming that
Oprah Winfrey's road was closed and therefore they couldn't make
it to high ground during these tsunami warnings. Oprah Winfrey's
people immediately came out and said, no, no, that's not true.
That road was open. As soon as we heard the warnings,
(23:08):
we contacted local emergency personnel and said the road is open,
free and clear. Please take this. Just don't just don't
come in the house.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Opebrius should have said Gail closed it.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Or blamed Stedman, the uh the other. The other interesting
story about this to come out of the tsunami warnings
was that wiki key tourists turned the tsunami warnings into
balcony parties when higher waves were expected to hit. A
(23:44):
reporter was live and Waikiki and was surprised to find
that people staying in higher floors of hotels were having
balcony parties. Where there's a disaster, there's going to be
partiers and the bar still open. If the bar is
still open, I mean that that that right there is
(24:06):
the reason why there is a waffle House index. People
gauge the severity or the expected severity of a storm
based on whether or not waffle House closes ahead of time.
If waffle House closes ahead of time, people bug out.
If waffle House is still open, then we're getting them
smothered and covered. Storm be damned.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (24:27):
There was one video of a guy he was just
like sitting on the sea wall, actually kind of kneeling,
videoing the ocean and you're just and it just you
start seeing the ocean rise. I would say it's probably
five foot and then you know it's waters up to
four feet three feet. Did you not see the videos
(24:50):
from from you know, Indonesia and that twenty years ago?
Speaker 3 (24:54):
Why why just just run if you see?
Speaker 1 (24:59):
Got to do it for I, but I got to
do it for the Graham.
Speaker 7 (25:02):
When the ocean draws back, run Look at atlant it's
winding up. Yeah, look at planet Earth like a giant wiener.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
If it is unsheathing. Run.
Speaker 5 (25:22):
That was really weird.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
When when the one the when the water recedes in
the ocean, you should not go walking out towards it
to see what what's the matter, Just go to the
opposite direction.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
That was literally the craziest thing. I think.
Speaker 7 (25:40):
I think it was uh natural. I think it was
nat Geo that did a documentary last year where they
they had gotten footage just all this home video footage
that people hadn't seen over twenty years from from the
Indonesian tsunami. And the craziest thing was I mean when
the ocean drew back, like it's hundreds of feet of
(26:03):
land you haven't seen ever run.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Yeah, just hearing you describe that gives me chills thinking
about standing someplace where you're like, oh, I used to
you know, bodyboard, maybe a little surfing, some paddle boarding,
and all of a sudden, hundreds of feet or hundreds
of yards of ocean draw back and I'm now seeing
things that were forty feet below the surface of the
(26:30):
ocean that I'm now seeing and the sun is shining
on it. Kind of a thing that's terrifying.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
And people were walking out there, yeah, like oh, look, unexplored.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Territory unless there is some Jewish man with a big
stick standing in the middle of it, asking for God's
help to receive these waters. Don't walk out there.
Speaker 7 (26:55):
Now, I'm pretty sure at that point even Moses have
been like, higher ground, We're out.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Yeah, I'm go back up and take a look at
these commandments on the top of this mountain.
Speaker 5 (27:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
When I when you see that pull back, I don't
know what the curiosity is, like, what's going on? Like
I wouldn't have that. I'd be like, Okay, so we're leaving.
So this was our day at the beach. I'll see
you guys later.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Don't you hate it when you go to the beach
and the ocean leaves days over?
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Man, just go home.
Speaker 5 (27:32):
Yeah, that's exactly right.

(28:28):
talking about that eight point eight magnitude earthquake that hit
Russia that sent tsunami warnings throughout the Pacific region. And
in the aftermath of those tsunami warnings, roj you said
you saw something pretty interesting.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
Uh no, I'm just talking about the documentary that Trey
was watching. If you Indonesia, when the ocean recedes, you
can still see people like coming. I guess it was
like a walk up bar and you can still see
people like grabbing their drinks and sitting down as that
ocean receip and then a giant wall of water is
(29:03):
coming to you and they're just sitting there and in
loungers they brought.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Yeah, they brought beach chairs.
Speaker 5 (29:09):
Oh yeah, yeah, wells going on.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
I was gonna say, if you've ever gone to an
all inclusive resort, it's hard to get those loungers. So
when one comes open, you gotta go for it. Uh yeah,
if you're bringing your Yeah, if you're bringing your own
what was that? Ra I said?
Speaker 4 (29:29):
How good was that drink? I gotta sit and I'm
just gonna watch this water come right towards me. But
this is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
This is this is tasty. It's so refreshing, not as
refreshing as the one hundred foot wall of water is
going to be when it crushes you. That is a
great question, though, It's like that would actually make for
a terror like a really really good terrible resort ad
where you show those people walking out onto the beach
with their with their drinks and say, here, here at
(30:03):
the Sri Lanka Lakina, the drinks are so good you'll
brave a tsunami for our ocean side beverages.
Speaker 5 (30:17):
That's a fantastic joke. By the way, there was no
fat in.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
That at all.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
It's an ad campaign waiting to happen.
Speaker 7 (30:29):
That'll it's a fascinating documentary because the other thing that's
just crazy is when the people that are higher up
in the balconies whatever start yelling at the people on
the beach run and they don't want to spill their drinks,
so they just start Some of them just start casually
walking back.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Like fast walking, but still sipping out of the straw, not.
Speaker 7 (30:50):
Even fast walking. They don't start fast walking until they
realize it's too late. I mean sadly, but yeah, it's
it's like, let's see the oceans just sucked back like
two hundred feet from where.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
It normally is. People are yelling at you to run.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
Can I get another shri lunkan sprints?
Speaker 5 (31:08):
Please off another white claw?
Speaker 1 (31:11):
H Speaking of spritzes, have you guys heard of the
trailer park sprits. This is apparently the new drink of
the summer, the trailer park Sprits. However, some experts are
calling it a recession indicator. No more apparol for you
(31:35):
this year. Some people might argue that it's the Hugo Sprits,
or perhaps the paper Plane, which was crowned twenty twenty
five's drink of the year. Yet, with rising costs of
inflation and ensuing shrinking while it's a lot of people
are turning to the Spaghette, a Miller high life with
a splash of apparol and a squeeze of lemon, as
(31:55):
a more budget friendly option for a refreshing hot weather bev.
That's a to business insider. So the trailer park Sprits
is a Miller high Life with a splash of aparol
and a squeeze of lemon, and it's taking the summer
by storm. It's also known as the NASCAR and the gronie.
Speaker 5 (32:19):
I'm so glad that sentence ended the way it did.
Speaker 9 (32:22):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Yeah, that could have that could have that could have
had a real dangerous left turn.
Speaker 5 (32:28):
What is apparrel? I don't know what that is.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
It's a liqueur, okay, basically kind of a strawberry root.
Speaker 4 (32:35):
Oh, a little Miller highline, a little strawberry and lemon wedge.
Don't forget that, oh lemon wedge. Yeah, stay classy.
Speaker 5 (32:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
But by the way, aparol is not tasty, remember.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
Like that's.
Speaker 5 (32:51):
It's like a grenadine or something like that.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
No, that tastes delicious because it's full of sugar. Uh.
And grenadine doesn't have any have any liquor in it.
It's just it's just a pure mainline diabetes bringer. Yeah,
but that's that. The grenadine is what's going to make
a lot of things taste good and turn pinkish. Now,
it's like there's an apparel sprits, which I've heard people
(33:18):
order for years and I've never had one. Uh. Then
had a friend ordered just an apparol, like just a
little bit of aperrel, and I don't know why, but
that's what they had. And I was like I've never
had that. Can I have a little sip of that?
They said, you're here, you go, and I'm sure they
were fine with it because it tastes terrible. It just
it's there. Like Trey said, it's sort of a strawberry flavor.
(33:40):
I didn't get any of that, mainly just because I
have a terrible palette.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
Well no, it's I misspoke. It's a more of an
orange liquor.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
Well orange. I'm glad I didn't drink all of it, but.
Speaker 3 (33:55):
Some people love it.
Speaker 5 (33:56):
I mean, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
So there's the apparalls, which is apparol and what else Trey.
Speaker 5 (34:03):
Club soda.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
I mean, you can do soda water, or you can
do some wine.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
That's what I usually see it done with.
Speaker 5 (34:16):
Yeah, mixed wine wine like interesting.
Speaker 3 (34:20):
The sprits thing has multiple variations.
Speaker 5 (34:23):
Yeah, joscha.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
Uh So, anyway, if you guys want to try, well,
not you, Trey, because you've been sober almost nine years. Uh,
if you want to try the NASCAR and the Groni
also known as the trailer Park sprits. There you have
the recipe. It's a Miller high Life, which is of
course the champagne apparol and a lemon wedge.
Speaker 5 (34:47):
Where would you order this at? Like what Bard knows this.
Speaker 3 (34:52):
Aperol sprits.
Speaker 5 (34:53):
No, no, no, the trailer park, oh sprits.
Speaker 3 (34:59):
Finding a bar that carries mg ds is pretty hard.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
Go to the obvious. Go to Mecca, Texas Motor Speedway. Oh,
I mean, just imagine being on the infield and you're
making them yourself on the infield and you hang a
sign that says NASCAR and the Groni's sold here. Oh yeah,
You'll have a line all the way out of the
(35:26):
U course.
Speaker 3 (35:29):
And people really disappointed at a drink.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
Kind of an offentness.

on social media. Today is Thursday July thirty first, twenty
twenty five. Let's celebrate today with some Earth Days. Rico
(36:32):
Rodriguez the second is twenty seven years old today. He
is best and I believe only known for playing Manny
Delgado on Modern Family. So the actor Rico Rodriguez, the
second who plays Manny Delgado on Modern Family, turns twenty
seven today. It's also a good offspring birthday day, not
(36:54):
the band actual offspring. Ruby Modine is thirty five. She's
Matthew Modine's daughter. She was the killer in the first
Happy Death Day. She was also a waitress named Sierra
on Shameless. Matthew Modine, by the way, really hasn't really
had too much of a dry spell in his career.
It's been pretty consistent, and then he had a huge
(37:15):
resurgence as Papa on Stranger Things, which leads me to
ask you, guys, have you seen the teaser for Stranger
Things five? About last week? I believe and last I saw?
It had over twenty million views on YouTube. So if
you Trey I know you're a Stranger Things watcher, the
season five teaser you can take a look at on YouTube.
(37:39):
Another offspring birthday. Zelda Williams turns thirty six. She's Robin
Williams's daughter. She was on the Freedom series Dead of
Summer and has guest starred on teen Wolf and Stitchers.
So Zelda Williams, daughter of Robin Turns thirty six today.
She plays Stacey in the Pitch Perfect movies. Alexis Nap
is also thirty six from Avenged Sevenfold. Im Shadows is
(38:03):
forty four.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
Good for him?
Speaker 5 (38:04):
What's a Cool Name?
Speaker 1 (38:07):
Bj Novak is forty six today, best known as Ryan
on the Office, he is a writer producer extraordinaire. In
addition to work on the Office, he did a lot
of work on the Mendi project as well, and he
had a movie come out last year. I can't remember
the name of it, but it was supposed to be good.
That's as much as I know about it. Country superstar
(38:27):
Zach Brown is forty seven. Dean Kin former Superman from
Lewis and Clark and Kara's dad on Supergirl, and Fox
News contributor Dean Kin is fifty nine to day. He
stuck his name in the middle of the Superman controversy
two weeks ago by saying that Superman is super woke
(38:50):
because of a pro immigrant agenda. Tell me you hadn't
seen the movie without telling me you hadn't seen the movie,
Jesus christ Man, just stop it, Just stop fanning the
culture war flames. I'm tired of this stuff. Anyone that
even thought the movie was going to be that and
went into the movie ready to be angry and bust
(39:11):
out the Superman super woke Pitchforks should have seen the
movie and said, no, it's not. He's just a big
blue boy scout. By the way, it was a nickname
for him in the comic books. What they did was
is they picked up on the one word that director
James Gutten shouldn't have used when describing Superman, and that
(39:31):
was an immigrant. Even though, by the way, it's true,
if you are just learning that Superman is an illegal alien,
I believe the problem is you Superman has always been
an illegal alien and he's clearly not going anywhere. So
(39:52):
if you're running around wearing a deport Superman t shirt,
I know you have not seen the movie. All right,
off my siltbox on that one. Jk. Rowling is a
sixty man. This is an interesting day for birthdays, for controversy.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
JK.
Speaker 1 (40:06):
Rowling versus trans people, Dean Kane versus Superman. This is fun.
You two going at it over Sidney Sweeney's jeans. What
a fun day in the treehouse. Mark Cuban turned sixty seven.
What a dick.
Speaker 3 (40:27):
Sorry.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
The only reason I say that, The only reason I
say that is because I really wish he had not
sold the Mavericks to the Addlesons. That is a horrible, horrible,
horrible group of people to have purchased them maps. Not
because of anything politically, but because they did what I
hate when big corporate things, when big corporate companies do
stupid things thinking they know better than everybody else. Yes,
I'm talking about them trading Luca. They didn't think the
(40:52):
blowback was going to be a big deal. Guess what
it was. And then an ultimate corporate irony, they get
gifted on a lege less than two percent chance of
getting the top pick in the NBA draft. They get it,
and they pick up the next great White Hope in
Cooper Flag. That's why I think Mark Cuban the dick.
(41:14):
Otherwise he's a really good person. I appreciate what he's
trying to do with prescription drug prices. I just wish
he hadn't sold the MAVs to the Addlestons, who then
made the biggest sports blunder in DFW history.
Speaker 3 (41:25):
Yeah, but don't don't.
Speaker 5 (41:26):
I mean.
Speaker 7 (41:28):
Cuban was around, I know he says he wasn't consulted
on it, but uh, it wasn't what's his name like?
Didn't Cuban say yes, he was going to be a
good GM.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
He was until he wasn't.
Speaker 3 (41:42):
Well, you know, isn't that always the case?
Speaker 1 (41:47):
I honestly don't know.
Speaker 7 (41:49):
I mean, let me unless you're Jerry Jones. You know,
typically people are you know, all gms are good until
they're not.
Speaker 1 (41:57):
And one would argue that most gms are bad because
the shelf lives for general managers and professional sports is
probably about the same for NFL players longevity, which is
around three and a half years.
Speaker 7 (42:12):
And I will still say this, as much as everyone
hates to say it, that is a trade that you
really can't fully judge, probably until a year or two
from now. If Luca completely breaks down, people are gonna go,
all right, maybe you know, they knew something that we didn't.
Speaker 1 (42:30):
I don't necessarily think it'll be of just a bonus.
I don't think it'll be a breakdown factor for Luca.
If he ends up back in a Lakers uniform having
gained sixty pounds and eaten his feelings and perhaps a
couple of teammates, then yeah, they can point and say, see,
we were right, but they don't get to then point
(42:53):
their finger and say, look how great it turned out.
This was our plan the whole time to luck into
the top pick in the NBA draft with a less
than two percent chance. Basically, it was bad behavior being rewarded.
And so they can't point and say this is their
grand plan the entire time, because it wasn't. They said
their grand plan was to double down on defense by
(43:15):
getting rid of liability Luca, and then within two weeks
of getting the best defensive guy in the league, he
was broke down because he got a sad groin.
Speaker 11 (43:26):
I hope the MAVs do a good jeens ad who
they need to star in it though, Cooper Flag Well,
that is the obvious choice.

I said earlier that there was more white meat on
that Sydney Sweeney American Eagle Jeans ad Bone, So let's
get back into it, Trey. Do you still feel like
(45:31):
that it's a woke mob going a little too Frankenstein?
Speaker 3 (45:37):
Yeah, I mean I think people.
Speaker 7 (45:41):
If you don't like the ad, that's fine, But I
don't think there was Nazi propaganda behind it.
Speaker 3 (45:48):
I don't think Again, she's the it girl right now.
Speaker 1 (45:54):
Do you think that it is similar to I don't
think they intended it to be Nazi propaganda, But do
you think it is similar to Nazi propaganda promoting a
supreme race?
Speaker 3 (46:07):
No, they're promoting a mediocre gene.
Speaker 4 (46:13):
Raj your counterpoint, No, I mean, I'll stand by it.
It is I mean, it's clearly racist. It's clearly I
don't know Nazi propaganda, but I mean it's I mean,
it's promoting like we are the supreme gene, we are
the supreme gene, we are the supreme race.
Speaker 3 (46:33):
Whatever else it says, good genes?
Speaker 4 (46:36):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (46:36):
Is it a blind spot? Is it a blind spot
for some Caucasians to not realize what it is that
we're doing by saying, hey, look there's this chicks, You've
got really good genes. Isn't that clever without thinking about
the fact that they're unintentionally promoting the whiteness.
Speaker 3 (47:00):
Why can't it she?
Speaker 7 (47:01):
Just like I said, by most any metric you would
judge a person jeans, you would say she has good
genes take color out?
Speaker 5 (47:11):
Are we judging people on jeans?
Speaker 11 (47:13):
Like?
Speaker 5 (47:14):
Why why are we doing that again?
Speaker 1 (47:16):
And by jeans you mean the g E N E
s as the genetics.
Speaker 4 (47:19):
Okay, why are we doing the Why are we doing
that again? Because that's what that's what, that's how that
started over there?
Speaker 3 (47:26):
First of all, it really you want to get back
it started here?
Speaker 5 (47:33):
What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (47:34):
I mean eugenics wasn't something that Hitler came up with.
That was Woodrow Wilson was a big proponent of it.
Speaker 5 (47:41):
That was the Klan.
Speaker 4 (47:42):
That wasn't That doesn't make it its Woodrow Wilson not
the Klan. Yeah, Woods Woods, Well, I mean he was
a big supporter of the clan. I mean I think
he had what was the movie that was You're.
Speaker 3 (47:55):
But again they're not saying she's white. She said good jeans.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
So and that's why I'm asking, and that's why I'm asking, Right,
is it a blind spot for white people to say
it's not that? But we don't see it, We don't
see it as tone deaf?
Speaker 5 (48:10):
That is correct.
Speaker 3 (48:11):
So if if it had been a person of color,
it would it be Okay.
Speaker 5 (48:16):
They wouldn't have made that ad.
Speaker 4 (48:22):
Why again, you're doing hypotheticals like if I was seven
feet tall, I'd be dunking, you know what I mean.
They wouldn't have made that ad. They picked that ad,
they picked those words, They picked that.
Speaker 3 (48:35):
Choice because she's the it girl right now.
Speaker 5 (48:41):
Okay, and the market's fine for it. And it's okay.
Speaker 4 (48:47):
That's what the dan's saying. It's a blind spot, you guys, aren't.
You're not seeing it.
Speaker 5 (48:51):
That's the first thing I saw.
Speaker 1 (48:53):
And I think the reason why I bring that up
is because one, I enjoy stirring this melting pot here
inside the tree.
Speaker 2 (49:00):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (49:01):
And two it's because if if you have not been
discriminated against, it's hard to see discrimination on a huge
billboard in the middle of Times Square, which is what
I'm gleaning from the people that are outraged about this ad.
While keeping in mind, I would like to also maintain
(49:23):
my firm position on this fence in saying I don't
think they intended it to be racist. And I also
think if you're super super mad about this, then you
should consider yourself lucky that this is the thing that's
got you angriest today.
Speaker 5 (49:39):
Yes, I'll agree with that, yeah for sure.
Speaker 7 (49:44):
If it's Yeah, if it's that if it don't buy
an American eagle, like if there, I don't know anyone
that does well.
Speaker 1 (49:52):
Again, this was their big swing again.
Speaker 7 (49:57):
One of those things someone you know, calm it on
a post I made about this, like so, yeah, people
are talking about their company. They're they're getting more press
yeah than that than they could have ever hoped for.
Speaker 5 (50:12):
Oh so interesting how that happened? Like they by accident?
Speaker 1 (50:16):
Okay, Oh I think it was. Yeah, I think it
was absolutely not. I think the reason why I think
it was. I don't think this is some grand plan.
The reason why is because the ad is utter crap.
It's like it's like I said earlier, this is basic
bitch marketing. I have any anthea, Let's do blue eyes
and blue denim and good genes and good genes haha, and.
Speaker 4 (50:40):
A toxic society right now and the way things are going. Yeah,
that was done on purpose. They have they have marketing
groups like they have.
Speaker 1 (50:48):
They do people and we've known many of those people,
I think. And one of the problems that society has
these days is it gives too much credit to idiots.
Sometimes people just do something real effing dumb, and there
was no master plan. Involved in it, and I think
this is one of those cases.
Speaker 7 (51:07):
It's an old joke, it's not I think someone was
being cute and and I don't think there was ill intent.
I don't think there was a racial element to it.
I think they saw Sidney Sweeney, like I said, Gez,
kind of.
Speaker 3 (51:22):
The four where old movie.
Speaker 4 (51:24):
It's all Sidney Sweeney and a forty year old movie,
and decided to put that together.
Speaker 1 (51:28):
Honestly, I don't even know if they know about the
Big Chill that Bad Trey's talking about. But I only
would I would argue that I doubt the Big Chill
was the first time anyone ever made the connection between
genes of pants and jeens genetics. The fact is someone
thought of it and thought it was super clever, and
it's not as clever as they thought it was, and
they put it in this ad, and now they're dealing
(51:50):
with all this backlash. Yeah, and again, I think I
think a large part of it is people that are
being super outraged by it are giving too much credit
thinking that there was some sort of master Nazi propaganda
racist ad machine going on in here. I think it
was because some jackass ad executive thought he had an
(52:13):
award winning idea based on an old trope.
Speaker 7 (52:16):
I mean, Dad, what you said, and I agree with you,
is that you're giving people too much credit for being like,
you know, mad scientists, evil geniuses. It's like the government,
you know everyone. There's some big cabal, but most of
them are idiots.
Speaker 1 (52:30):
