Speaker 1: Coming Phil? Comp nothing much. I also celebrated July fourth
Speaker 1: by staying inside and not looking at a single firework.
Speaker 1: I am not going to bask in the glow of
Speaker 1: any bombs bursting in air this fucking year. That's first.
Speaker 1: I just I just only clapped for the regular gunshots
Speaker 1: in my neighborhood. Yeah, yeah, that's what I took my
Speaker 1: nieces in town, and I took her to not I'm
Speaker 1: radicalizing her already. I was like seeing fireworks and we
Speaker 1: just go and listen to gunshots. Baby, Oh my god.
Speaker 1: The fireworks though, like just intense all night. There was
Speaker 1: some Yeah, there's some that seemed like they were targeting
Speaker 1: my house. Maybe I don't know that makes sense. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's coordinated effort. But as law is meant, people are
Speaker 1: I woke up with the weather and you know, people
Speaker 1: showing the air quality and it's like bad quality is
Speaker 1: bad in Los Angeles. We kind of went overboard last night. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I canceled my sky diving less than today because I
Speaker 1: wasn't gonna deal with it, you know what I mean. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what though. I'll tell you what though.
Speaker 1: My cousin lives in New York. She lives in the
Speaker 1: Bronx in New York, and she lives like in a
Speaker 1: high rise, like she beautiful views of the city, like
Speaker 1: one of the top floors, and she was taking videos
Speaker 1: on our Instagram of fireworks just popping up in the
Speaker 1: middle of city as like people was popping up fireworks
Speaker 1: in the middle of city blocks. At least in l A,
Speaker 1: we're doing it the neighborhoods and ship these motherfucker's was
Speaker 1: downtown Bronx popping up fireworks. It was like no chill
Speaker 1: in New York. So it's all over the place, man,
Speaker 1: It's all over the place. Yeah, I wish we could
Speaker 1: just give up the independence part. Like no one. I
Speaker 1: don't think anyone is celebrating American out that I know.
Speaker 1: But if you want to celebrate just blowing ship up
Speaker 1: once a year, just be honest about that, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. Hot dogs and fireworks Day, and that's
Speaker 1: all it has to be. Yeah, the fireworks. I did
Speaker 1: take my kids to a firework display and they were
Speaker 1: bored so quickly, like they were like, so is this
Speaker 1: the finale? They first, like, you know, they just kept
Speaker 1: asking if it was the finale, and then you know,
Speaker 1: but they were not frightened, which I you know, used
Speaker 1: to be when I was a kid, So that's also
Speaker 1: a concern. They're desensitized. Yeah, yeah, exactly, like you gotta
Speaker 1: keep your head on a swivel out there. We're in America. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean unless this Disney fireworks or some ship, Like
Speaker 1: most fireworks are boring for kids, because unless they are
Speaker 1: some music or something. Yeah, exactly, if you're just in
Speaker 1: a neighborhood, it's just like, Okay, I guess we're looking
Speaker 1: at this street in this direction for these wild ass neighbors.
Speaker 1: Let's see how much the ship they bought. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: drive back from the fireworks was the best part because then, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're just like hitting all like driving down like a
Speaker 1: firework alley of just like explosions going off everywhere way
Speaker 1: too low, you know, backyard backyard displays that are like, oh,
Speaker 1: I think that could have cracked my window if if
Speaker 1: I was like in the left lane. But anyways, we're
Speaker 1: going to get to know you a little bit better
Speaker 1: in a moment. Brody, first, we're gonna tell our listeners
Speaker 1: a couple of things we're talking about. It seems like
Speaker 1: a lot of America is coming to the conclusion that,
Speaker 1: like the I don't know, there there's like an existential
Speaker 1: crisis politically where people are like, why do you, as
Speaker 1: the two major parties in America? It exists if you
Speaker 1: don't actually help people. And the answer that like, I've
Speaker 1: just been you know, morbidly curious and like watching the
Speaker 1: mainstream media to see how they deal, and they are
Speaker 1: going hard in the moderate Democrat like direction, Like the
Speaker 1: New York Times magazine had a cover story about how
Speaker 1: moderate Democrats are really the iconoclastic outsiders of politics, and
Speaker 1: Mitt Romney had like an op ed where he was like,
Speaker 1: we got our head in the sand and we need
Speaker 1: to come together in the center. And everybody was covering
Speaker 1: the hell out of that, you know, as you know,
Speaker 1: the weekend brought video of Akron police shooting jaylend Walker
Speaker 1: to death, a mass shooting at a Fourth of July
Speaker 1: parade where people are just like it seemed like they
Speaker 1: were just choosing people sucking at random, like I don't know,
Speaker 1: like it. It feels like America has entered the terrorism
Speaker 1: phase of like the American system is just you know,
Speaker 1: fucking terrorizing people. And then their answer is moderates. What
Speaker 1: if we went back to Clinton Clintonian politics? Uh, that
Speaker 1: that's a like I have. I have some wild quotes
Speaker 1: from that New York Times magazine article. So we'll talk
Speaker 1: about that. We're gonna talk about the latest kind of
Speaker 1: viral obsession, Sara Patch Kids slushy from Sonic. Sorry, Sara
Speaker 1: Patch Kids slush space. When you said that, oh yes,
Speaker 1: and that that just sounds terrible it is, are not
Speaker 1: not so Patch Kid or I love I love, I
Speaker 1: love Sour Patch Kids. Now, but look, man, older I get,
Speaker 1: the more I'm like, that's too much sugar, Man, the
Speaker 1: more we become our parents, Man, that's too much sugar.
Speaker 1: That's too much sugar for kids, or anybody doesn't feel
Speaker 1: like this is like the pop cultural like content that
Speaker 1: is devoid of like any political implications that people can
Speaker 1: just you know, everybody can distract themselves with. But this
Speaker 1: seems like a bad one just based on the reviews. Anyway,
Speaker 1: all of that plenty more, But first, Broody, we do
Speaker 1: like to ask our guests, what is something from your
Speaker 1: search history I have never seen the movie The Bodyguard,
Speaker 1: which is my own fault because I grew up in
Speaker 1: a black woman's house. But I someone recently told me
Speaker 1: that Winnie Houston holds a katana in that movie, and
Speaker 1: I had to immediately google it, and I was not disappointed,
Speaker 1: a little disappointed because I wanted to see her really
Speaker 1: really going at it, you fucking swing it, yeah, whacking
Speaker 1: some bamboo or anything. But it's just the scene work
Speaker 1: having Cosner lets her hold a gatana and then he
Speaker 1: like throws like a silk sheet over it and then
Speaker 1: it like slices without her like doing anything. That was
Speaker 1: just really badass. So you heard it here, Whinney Houston ninja,
Speaker 1: that's relevant to my interests? How is that not like
Speaker 1: the most memed like gift like that? Exactly? Sure? Give
Speaker 1: the watch. This gift is everywhere. What about the Yeah,
Speaker 1: we live in a world of so much fan art
Speaker 1: where people are like making all the Narto characters black
Speaker 1: or something like that. So I think it's time we
Speaker 1: got some Whitney Houston holding a katana fan art. And
Speaker 1: if anyone is listening and you've got the artistic capacity
Speaker 1: tweet at me, I'll beat bucks. I don't care I
Speaker 1: miss what I miss when, Like I miss when like
Speaker 1: the biggest stars like also acted and didn't well, like
Speaker 1: I feel like those new crop of stars we have
Speaker 1: uh now probably like Lady Gaga is the last one
Speaker 1: uh and like there's more coming, but who are Like
Speaker 1: I'm not saying like the stars aren't acting, but like
Speaker 1: when Houston was okay as an actress, I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: a fun fact. A lot of people don't know that.
Speaker 1: Maybe some people do know this, but she was originally
Speaker 1: cast as one of the daughters on The Cosby Show
Speaker 1: or some sh it. I think, oh, that's so yeah,
Speaker 1: and like then she turned it down and went to
Speaker 1: music instead of which was, you know, a good idea.
Speaker 1: But yeah, man, I'm missing Lady Ga. I was like, no, no, Whitney, Whitney,
Speaker 1: Lady Gaga was Lady was gonna be Lady Goga. I
Speaker 1: was gonna be Claire and Claire's okay now. She was
Speaker 1: going to be on the conste Show. She was gonna
Speaker 1: be the White Cotter. She was also a infant. But no,
Speaker 1: it's just like I think that's dope and now and
Speaker 1: I mean like not just actors who singers who act
Speaker 1: with like the top of Echelon. Like now we have
Speaker 1: Beyonce and I'm sorry be Hive, but Beyonce is a
Speaker 1: terrible fucking actress. It's been like it's been over ten
Speaker 1: years since Goldmember. I'm sure she's got some lessons down.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Men, dream Girls came out to go
Speaker 1: remember and we got we got Haley in uh Little Mermaids.
Speaker 1: So okay, there we go. We'll we'll see what's up.
Speaker 1: Rihanna was like very good and everything she was in
Speaker 1: she was just in like bad movies. And then just
Speaker 1: like I just choose not to be a great actor. Yeah, Battleship.
Speaker 1: That was like she was like a great part of Battleship.
Speaker 1: But of course nobody fucking saw that. No I didn't
Speaker 1: see that. Yeah, like, let's let's get these Let's get
Speaker 1: some of these singers like lead rolls and see what
Speaker 1: they can in like cheesy rom coms. I remember The
Speaker 1: Preacher's Wife with Denza Ellen and Whitney. Terrible movie but
Speaker 1: also very fun, so fun, loved it. What is something
Speaker 1: you think is overrated? Brodie? Okay before you guys, okay, listen,
Speaker 1: let's hear hear me out. Gont hear you out? Arm here,
Speaker 1: and before you react, not just women. It's overrated on everyone. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I'm not just talking about a little bit armed here, Okay, right,
Speaker 1: we all we all got it. When I'm talking. If
Speaker 1: someone is wearing like, um, you know they got sunset out,
Speaker 1: guns out, they runn a tank and they got like
Speaker 1: six inches on them. Yeah, are you Are you making
Speaker 1: a political statement like nasty? Are you gonna braid it?
Speaker 1: Are you trying to impress like an art student or
Speaker 1: something like that. It's just like if if if if
Speaker 1: I saw someone who like did it like clip their
Speaker 1: nails and they had like six six inches and like
Speaker 1: fingernails and be like, what's going on? I want to
Speaker 1: agree with I I agree with you so hard and
Speaker 1: I'm glad you said it because now I can finally
Speaker 1: speak my truth. Thank you so much. Here here it
Speaker 1: is here, it is aren't pit hair. It's fucking nasty
Speaker 1: on everybody, on everybody, And like I'll never I'll never
Speaker 1: ever tell because I know like you here to do
Speaker 1: say that and amatically the mind the thought processes, Oh
Speaker 1: you're talking about women who have arn't pit hair, And
Speaker 1: I'm just like, yo, look I'm willing to say instead
Speaker 1: of like everybody just being comfortable with their body hair.
Speaker 1: Let's get men to say no, we're gonna go hit
Speaker 1: and shave our armpit hair. Like, let's do that. Let's
Speaker 1: everybody everybody shave your armpit hair. Let that be the default. Like,
Speaker 1: let's all be fucking wrestlers. What they have just no
Speaker 1: armit hair? And it's great, I mean, but honestly, at
Speaker 1: the end of the day, people can do whatever they want.
Speaker 1: I am famously pro white dreads. I think I think
Speaker 1: can be a gutter punk whatever. Get, But I just
Speaker 1: don't get what it adds, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: It's just like if someone gives you a soup with
Speaker 1: with like a basil leaf on that, you're not supposed
Speaker 1: to eat the basil leaf. But if someone gives you
Speaker 1: like a soup with like a handful of basil leaves
Speaker 1: on there, it's just like, what is what exactly exactly
Speaker 1: are you doing anyway? That's that's just yeah, I get you.
Speaker 1: It's it's overrated for sure. And again, like you said,
Speaker 1: any hair you want to have it, fool with me.
Speaker 1: It's still a beautiful, sexy beast and I love it.
Speaker 1: It's great. It's just you know, you're welcome, you wecome.
Speaker 1: It's just you know, I'm here for the push of
Speaker 1: instead of like, yo, let's all be okay with our
Speaker 1: body hair, our armpit hair. More specifically not body hair,
Speaker 1: armpit hair. I'm saying, let's just all cut our our
Speaker 1: armpit hair, let's all be naked under our arms, and
Speaker 1: let's let's be okay with a moderate amount. Let's all
Speaker 1: let's meet in the center. You're a centrist on this,
Speaker 1: I'm a leftist. Who would I be concernering on this?
Speaker 1: Would this be conservative? Conservative? This means conservative and Jack
Speaker 1: loves it, so he's leftist. He wants all, he wants
Speaker 1: all the bushes under the arms, have a true tea
Speaker 1: on and you can, as you guys can see it
Speaker 1: like that, my hair is coming down town. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: do have it graded like so yeah. It's it just
Speaker 1: feels like when you see people who have those handlebar
Speaker 1: mustaches that they're like trying to win like a contest
Speaker 1: every year and they like grown out real big. That's
Speaker 1: that's almost what it is to me. But hair. At
Speaker 1: the same time, listen, I'm not going to come to
Speaker 1: Portland and tell you how to grow your hair. It's all.
Speaker 1: It's all good. It's all good. So you I, I
Speaker 1: assume you've had both. You've both had armpit hair and
Speaker 1: not like, is there comparison. Never I've never had it.
Speaker 1: I've wasted it off. I've never shaved, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: I am curious about the comfort of it all. I mean,
Speaker 1: I mean, I've I've shaved my armpit hair maybe a
Speaker 1: couple of times before. I can't remember why. It's been
Speaker 1: very long. I don't grow a lot of hair. I know,
Speaker 1: anybody who knows me personally knows like I'm like very
Speaker 1: fucking smooth like hair. I don't have like leg hair
Speaker 1: and shipped like. I don't have that much hair in general,
Speaker 1: So even my armpit hair is very like scarce. The
Speaker 1: only reason I'm not cutting it is just because it's
Speaker 1: itchy as ship and I don't want to go through
Speaker 1: the learning curve. But if that's the society we say,
Speaker 1: this is what we're doing, I'll jump on that sword
Speaker 1: and I'll also join everybody and they're bald under arm hair.
Speaker 1: But until then, now I wanna let I wanna let
Speaker 1: my ship out, though I just can't. I don't think
Speaker 1: my mine can physically grow more than like an inch.
Speaker 1: And I see some people where I'm just like, man,
Speaker 1: you're in You're in the Guinness books, and we're all
Speaker 1: acting like it's normal and that's whatever. You like people
Speaker 1: who if they shaved, you would have to shave like
Speaker 1: twice a day, if you got to the point where
Speaker 1: you have to commit. I'm just like, Okay, what is
Speaker 1: what exactly is going on? If you if you can
Speaker 1: pick your armpit hair out there, you're putting a newg
Speaker 1: on there in a ways? What is something you think
Speaker 1: is underrated? Something I've been getting into recently and I've
Speaker 1: been like resisting of it. But like, I'm the kind
Speaker 1: of person who doesn't like to go to the grocery store.
Speaker 1: I'm an introvert. Sometimes I get social anxiety and then
Speaker 1: when I get to that last day where I'm just like, fuck,
Speaker 1: I don't have any good groceries. I just all I
Speaker 1: got is a packet of rice. I can't just need
Speaker 1: a pack of rice all day. I gotta go. I
Speaker 1: I was always kind of resistant of like getting groceries
Speaker 1: delivered to you. And I know this is like not
Speaker 1: like a new take, especially like post pandemic or anything
Speaker 1: like that, but It's nice every once in a while
Speaker 1: just to get someone to go to the store for
Speaker 1: you and you tip them. You know what I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm improving somebody's livelihood and I don't have to fucking
Speaker 1: go to Ralph's and wear my mask, um for a second.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I don't know if you
Speaker 1: guys have done any of these like delivery things, but
Speaker 1: you'll you'll like, you'll put stuff in your cart and
Speaker 1: then they'll say, if we can't find it, we'll get
Speaker 1: you something similar, and then they'll then they'll like, bring
Speaker 1: your ship. And I'm just like, Okay, you definitely could
Speaker 1: have found the thing that you gave me a replacement
Speaker 1: for I asked for, you know, a twelve pack of
Speaker 1: Canada dry and you're you're bringing me back swepts right
Speaker 1: right or not? Even sometimes they will be like, well
Speaker 1: spreading to do they both being cans. I just have
Speaker 1: sucking food to let food delivery is is I I
Speaker 1: just got some groceries delivered this morning, um as well.
Speaker 1: And I still go to the grocery store, but every
Speaker 1: blue moment I'll get especially there's a promo code or
Speaker 1: something like that, I can get free delivery and I'm
Speaker 1: not even on my promo code game. I'm on my
Speaker 1: promo code game. Baby, I'd be searching for I'll be
Speaker 1: searching for promo. I'll try about four or five of
Speaker 1: them too, before i be like, Okay, I'm gonna work.
Speaker 1: I guess that none of them gonna work. But yo, yo,
Speaker 1: here's the play though, here's the play. Just go in
Speaker 1: and tell them. You can go in the app and say,
Speaker 1: if you can't find this, don't give me a goddamn substitution.
Speaker 1: Just refunfund my money. That's what I do, because they'd
Speaker 1: be giving you the wildest substitutions. Like I eat keyto,
Speaker 1: I do keto mostly, and so sometimes I'll get like
Speaker 1: keto centric things and and then they won't have it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm a keto centrist. That's why I'm in the center
Speaker 1: of I'm glad we can all agree centrism as the
Speaker 1: is the way. That's the way. It's the way. But
Speaker 1: you will act for like you know, like, oh, give
Speaker 1: me some almy flower, and then they'll have almon flower
Speaker 1: and then bring you back a loaf of bread and
Speaker 1: stead like what the fund is this? I gotta do
Speaker 1: nothing with this. Yeah, that's funny. So I yeah, I
Speaker 1: like this is a part of me that's broken that
Speaker 1: I've kind of come to terms with. I think I
Speaker 1: like there's this book White Noise, like Don Deolilo White Noise,
Speaker 1: where like they talk about like the guy is like
Speaker 1: dealing with his fear of death just generally, like the
Speaker 1: like he is stalked by his fear of death. One
Speaker 1: of the things. Yeah, I'm I'm completely fearless around death
Speaker 1: and like a complete might as well have a military medallion.
Speaker 1: I'm so brief. But he like one of the things
Speaker 1: he does is like goes to a grocery store with
Speaker 1: his family, and it's just like calmed by the like
Speaker 1: colors and all the like choices and just like the
Speaker 1: excess of it all. I think I I think I
Speaker 1: have that like that. I think I have that sickness
Speaker 1: where like because I do the grocery shopping for my
Speaker 1: family like on purpose, because I like to just like
Speaker 1: go turn my brain off and just bask in the horror.
Speaker 1: That the plusest thing I get. We get to like hunting,
Speaker 1: so exactly for your family. Yeah, but I I understand
Speaker 1: that it like it makes more sense to me that
Speaker 1: somebody would be like anything to avoid ralphs. Yes, I
Speaker 1: am not that way for some reason. Anyways, Uh, let's
Speaker 1: take a quick break. We'll come back. We'll talk about
Speaker 1: the great doubling down on the status quo. Yes please,
Speaker 1: and we're back. Like we set up top, everybody seems
Speaker 1: to become to the same conclusion that America is currently
Speaker 1: having an existential crisis, like in in as far as
Speaker 1: its political systems go. The American people seem to be
Speaker 1: asking like why do these parties exist? Like on the
Speaker 1: one side, it's like maga people being like why won't
Speaker 1: they agree with Trump? But I think the major already
Speaker 1: is people being like, hey, we voted for Democrats. We've
Speaker 1: voted for Democrats like in the in the majority, uh
Speaker 1: eight of the last nine elections. But it does feel
Speaker 1: like there is a paralysis that is happening with this party,
Speaker 1: like what what else can we do here? And the
Speaker 1: answer that The New York Times seems to have come
Speaker 1: up with is like just doubling down, like the blaming
Speaker 1: extreme leftist politics. It's it's fine. It was like a
Speaker 1: truly baffling story. Yeah, the New York Times is I
Speaker 1: think we can all consider The New York Times to
Speaker 1: be a conservative rag at this point, like it seems
Speaker 1: like every week they got some new ship everyone's getting
Speaker 1: mad about in their opinion section or or elsewhere. It's
Speaker 1: they're just all about the status quo. Yeah, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I I agree with that that they are. I would,
Speaker 1: I would even take it. I don't really think there's
Speaker 1: a There isn't an extreme left because extreme the only
Speaker 1: extreme left there is is people on the quote unquote
Speaker 1: extreme left just sometimes are equally as fucking annoying as
Speaker 1: people like for reasons. Uh, you know, it's very much
Speaker 1: because you know, white people have gotten a hold of
Speaker 1: woke ism and their only way to do anything is
Speaker 1: to say my way or the highway type ship, which
Speaker 1: you know, I I get that, but I would prefer
Speaker 1: The New York Times to be about as conservative as
Speaker 1: it gets. Well, well not not. I'm just saying, like,
Speaker 1: if that, I want to live in a world where
Speaker 1: that is what the New York Time, where they represent,
Speaker 1: is the extreme right, because right, see works is right,
Speaker 1: and you know that's what we're you know, because I
Speaker 1: you know, everybody love I want to progressive. I want
Speaker 1: to be I'm in a progressive thing and everything like that.
Speaker 1: But I'm in a progressive thing, but I'm not sucking.
Speaker 1: I'm not like dumb and think like the right is
Speaker 1: gonna go away forever, Like that's just not a realistic thought. Right.
Speaker 1: But if we can eradicate what is seemingly taken over
Speaker 1: and ruling our country apparently with an iron clan fist,
Speaker 1: with this, which is the extreme right, then I'm all
Speaker 1: for that. I don't know how we get there, but
Speaker 1: it's I was. I don't want to go off on
Speaker 1: a tanger or anything. I had this viral threat about
Speaker 1: a week ago famous catch traits by the way. I
Speaker 1: don't want to go but I had a viral, But
Speaker 1: I had a viral. I wanted to make sure that
Speaker 1: people caught the trademark, the implications of the trademark in
Speaker 1: there as you as you said it, thank you so much.
Speaker 1: Go go back lost of the other disease or I
Speaker 1: guess on you can. There's always a point um and
Speaker 1: you can drink if you if you hear me say that.
Speaker 1: But I was watching this, uh, this video by this
Speaker 1: economist who was also this historian, and he was talking
Speaker 1: about what happens to these empires who are on the
Speaker 1: top historically. You know, before we were like the country
Speaker 1: with the reserve currency, which is the most internationally strong
Speaker 1: currency in the worlds which people trade off and because
Speaker 1: of that, they tend to lend us money and we
Speaker 1: get to kind of determine the policies for a lot
Speaker 1: of the rest of the world. Before us, it was
Speaker 1: the British. Before the British, it was the French. Before
Speaker 1: the French, it was the Dutch, and we forget about
Speaker 1: the Dutch. But the Dutch invented ships, and they invented capitalism,
Speaker 1: and they invented the stock market. And we've seen all
Speaker 1: of these empires who were on the top at one
Speaker 1: point kind of go through these it's where they were
Speaker 1: at the top end. Those periods lasted for like a
Speaker 1: hundred a hundred fifty years, and if you look at
Speaker 1: it historically from even before the Dutch, we're like this
Speaker 1: the Spanish and like the Portuguese, like we're kind of
Speaker 1: we've kind of reached that point where economically, our leaders
Speaker 1: are just borrowing a lot of money. Rich people, I mean,
Speaker 1: like the divide between the foreign riches increased. People are
Speaker 1: playing the stock market there that you see them investing
Speaker 1: in things like gold and stuff because they think that
Speaker 1: the market is going to tank because they borrowed money
Speaker 1: and all this stuff. It's just like, um, it's on
Speaker 1: a larger scale, it seems like America is dying. I
Speaker 1: think we're all in this kind of like weird existential crisis.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I think we're just gonna
Speaker 1: have to get used to not being the world's biggest superpower,
Speaker 1: and we're just gonna have to focus on like making
Speaker 1: our lives better. Like, like the rights that we fight
Speaker 1: for are important. It's it's not just voting that we
Speaker 1: have to do. It's like we actually do have to
Speaker 1: demand change from our leaders who are ineffective, and they're
Speaker 1: ineffective for a reason. It's fight design, you know. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but yeah, the center is just not it anymore. No, yeah,
Speaker 1: like the center isn't in anymore because like I said,
Speaker 1: like the center almost has to become what we need
Speaker 1: to be just the right and and you know it
Speaker 1: is right because oilse I don't think like because you
Speaker 1: can't be you can't the the extreme to the right
Speaker 1: of the center is too extreme, right, so any any
Speaker 1: movement towards that direction. Uh, the status quo is why
Speaker 1: we have led to the extreme rights that is who
Speaker 1: we're not codifying and doing things and being like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's okay. Is what is allowed people who, for instance,
Speaker 1: have wanted to control and take away women's rights and
Speaker 1: were's reproductive rights and and all the things we see
Speaker 1: kind of going away because the action of the Center
Speaker 1: is was allowed them to just kind of keep operating
Speaker 1: kind of into shadows, and now they're operating in the
Speaker 1: fucking light exactly. Yeah. I remember growing up and thinking like,
Speaker 1: I can't imagine people being like openly bigoted as they were,
Speaker 1: Like you know, when we see black and white videos
Speaker 1: of like the Civil rights movement, I couldn't really picture it.
Speaker 1: And now it's it's it's like commonplace. It's commonplace, it's
Speaker 1: it's it's it's just it's people who are younger than
Speaker 1: me as well too, which is a really surprising thing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's nuts, and honestly, it's it's off
Speaker 1: from like four chant and stuff. It's all this stuff
Speaker 1: I'm very familiar with. And I think but I think
Speaker 1: there's also a something happening where they're is desperation among
Speaker 1: people who are coming to this conclusion that we have
Speaker 1: a political system that only serves corporations and the police
Speaker 1: essentially at this point, and that you know that like
Speaker 1: so so there's anger and discomfort, and the way that
Speaker 1: people deal with that is like looking for something outside
Speaker 1: of the status quo in the mainstream that is currently
Speaker 1: ignoring them, and the you know, the four chance of
Speaker 1: the World are one of the things that is offering
Speaker 1: a solution. It is a horrifying, like you know, white supremacists,
Speaker 1: violent ideology, but it's also it's there and constant. The
Speaker 1: left seems to be like struggling as of now to
Speaker 1: like fully put something together that is like consistent and coherent,
Speaker 1: like you know, for a while with Sanders. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think part of it is because the left by design
Speaker 1: is diverse and egalitarian and we consists of a lot
Speaker 1: of different people from a lot of different backgrounds. And
Speaker 1: the right, and I feel like we see this over
Speaker 1: and over in history, is like they value a specific
Speaker 1: type of lifestyle, which is this um white American way,
Speaker 1: Christian um identity that they rally around and push and
Speaker 1: try to gather people in. And that's how you know,
Speaker 1: fascism happens. You wrap people around one identity and then
Speaker 1: you blame other problems on other people, and then they
Speaker 1: stock buy a bunch of guns. So it's kind of
Speaker 1: a scary place to be in. But like at the
Speaker 1: same time, when we when we push Democrats and be like,
Speaker 1: we need to push gun reform right now, we need
Speaker 1: to codify row and Wade right now, Like the situation
Speaker 1: is more desperate it than it ever has. I mean,
Speaker 1: last week we saw the Supreme Court just push through
Speaker 1: a bunch of ships. We saw them push through uh,
Speaker 1: they got rid of some coal regulations for coal mining
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. It just seems like they're doing
Speaker 1: every evil thing in the in the in the playlists
Speaker 1: as fast as possible. And it's a really pivotal year. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The New York Times magazine article like so they start
Speaker 1: out and they're like, you know, some fiscal policies like
Speaker 1: medicare for all or Medicaid for all and uh, raising
Speaker 1: the minimum wage are popular. But then it just like
Speaker 1: completely drops it. But it's like, but a lot of
Speaker 1: the stuff that Democrats believe in our not And it
Speaker 1: doesn't talk about like abortion rights, It doesn't talk you know,
Speaker 1: having a solution to climate change in place that we're
Speaker 1: all working towards which are they. It just completely accepts
Speaker 1: the right wing like characterization of of Democrats and is
Speaker 1: just like that's that's a political winner. It's a loser
Speaker 1: for us, and it's just so laser focused. It's it's
Speaker 1: it's one of these stories that like has kind of
Speaker 1: a protagonist or a couple of protagonist and like it
Speaker 1: portrays them as these iconoclastic outsiders of politics and they
Speaker 1: are like middle of the road Clintonian like people. At
Speaker 1: one point, the guy brings the he's like a New
Speaker 1: Jersey representative. He brings a video to Nancy Pelosi. It
Speaker 1: is a six bill Clinton campaign ad that brags about
Speaker 1: welfare reform, work requirements, taxes, cut death penalty for drug kingpins.
Speaker 1: Like that's what it says it did. Clinton did in
Speaker 1: the first administration bann cop killer bullets, capital gains, tax
Speaker 1: cut for homeowners, balance the budget for growing economy, and
Speaker 1: like that. So that that's like Clinton doubling Downald means
Speaker 1: testing the war on drugs, weaponizing a plot line from
Speaker 1: Lethal Weapon three. I think like the cop killers thing
Speaker 1: is just it was just like a meme. Like I
Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know that that was necessarily even
Speaker 1: like a real story, but to give basically giving police
Speaker 1: more opportunity to claim their brave and under constant threat.
Speaker 1: It is an amazing time capsule that, by all rights
Speaker 1: should be brought forth and be like, do you fucking
Speaker 1: believe this was only twenty six years ago? But instead
Speaker 1: he's like, Nancy, this is how we win, this is
Speaker 1: how we do it. And it's just I don't know.
Speaker 1: The New York Times magazine just takes them at their work. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it seems like we, I know, like something to some people,
Speaker 1: it seems like we've reached a tipping point as a
Speaker 1: black man in America. Don't I don't think it exactly.
Speaker 1: I'm here. I'm here to tell you we have not right.
Speaker 1: We still have much more to tip to go before
Speaker 1: we reached that tipping point. And they and and there
Speaker 1: are gonna be certain people that are going to the
Speaker 1: scales are tipping, but we haven't reached the tipping point yet,
Speaker 1: Like there are still things they are coming for before
Speaker 1: we quote reach our tipping point. Where like some people
Speaker 1: on the left, especially in no center left, moderate people
Speaker 1: are eventually going to say we can no longer I
Speaker 1: hope we can no longer allow for the our need
Speaker 1: for status quo to be our guiding light, right because
Speaker 1: to some people, like, for instance, you know, I've heard
Speaker 1: the argument, and look, I don't know who you or
Speaker 1: disagree with this, but I've heard the argument. I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess I can't disagree or agree, but I I hear,
Speaker 1: I hear the marriage of this argument where all right,
Speaker 1: let's say Hillary was elected, right, what we be where
Speaker 1: we are right now? And the answer is probably not
Speaker 1: because you know, Trump put three justices on, you know,
Speaker 1: in the part, and Hillary would not have right, so
Speaker 1: we probably would not be here. I don't think that's
Speaker 1: an unfair statement to say, right, And what the Clinton
Speaker 1: with Hillary stood for was the status quo. So so
Speaker 1: the argument that some people making is man status quote
Speaker 1: looks pretty damn good right now if status quo still means,
Speaker 1: you know, women can get apportions without fucking going to
Speaker 1: jail or dying or making a choice between death or jail, right,
Speaker 1: And and to that, I say, I get that, I
Speaker 1: hear that, I hear the merits of that. But eventually,
Speaker 1: when you keep having a status quo, you keep tipping
Speaker 1: the scales towards the opposite direction, and eventually we get
Speaker 1: to this tipping point, to a tipping point, which is
Speaker 1: where we are fucking headed. And unfortunately, nobody wants to
Speaker 1: get to a tipping point because that means we have
Speaker 1: lost a lot in order for people to finally wake
Speaker 1: the funk up. And but it seems like that's where
Speaker 1: we're going. I don't know. Yeah, a lot of people think,
Speaker 1: um that the at us quo is synonymous with stability,
Speaker 1: because you know, we've we've vaguely been a certain way
Speaker 1: as a society since World War Two. But like it's
Speaker 1: not sustainability, it's still the slow creep of capitalism towards
Speaker 1: the right. I think one thing that people kind of
Speaker 1: don't really recognize is that even though Trump was an accelerant,
Speaker 1: he wasn't really special. He didn't really do anything that unique.
Speaker 1: He just kind of did whatever his um, the Republicans
Speaker 1: who were patting on the him on the back told
Speaker 1: him to do. Like this is still kind of just
Speaker 1: textbook war on poverty type ship. Um, it's all just
Speaker 1: like natural creep and everything from the persecution of trans
Speaker 1: people right now to digging on a native pipelines and stuff.
Speaker 1: It's it's all connected to the same kind of rhetoric
Speaker 1: where we're trying to put the onus of America being
Speaker 1: a stronger country on everyday people, when really it's the
Speaker 1: people who actually have power sucking resources away from us,
Speaker 1: and then uh, eventually they're going to abandon us and
Speaker 1: some other already in many ways. Yeah, yeah, to to
Speaker 1: the point which I think is an argument I've heard
Speaker 1: recently and seeing like from people being like anybody who
Speaker 1: was like a big you know, Bernie's supporter or like
Speaker 1: didn't vote for Clinton, like should be ashamed and totally
Speaker 1: get that sentiment. At the same time, I like, I
Speaker 1: think there is a world where you look at the
Speaker 1: fact that Hillary Clinton, who is the most like representative
Speaker 1: of this centrist democratic like position in the status quo
Speaker 1: that you could possibly find, like in the world you
Speaker 1: could possibly find, lost to Donald Trump in the election,
Speaker 1: like that that should have signaled okay. And then meanwhile,
Speaker 1: there was this movement to the left that we had
Speaker 1: to actively like we being the Democratic Party, had to
Speaker 1: actively suppress in order to get Clinton like even into
Speaker 1: the election in the first place. So maybe we learn
Speaker 1: a lesson from that and learned that that there's a
Speaker 1: bunch of energy there because I think that's the That's
Speaker 1: the thing that people are leaving out of the equation
Speaker 1: is that the reality is that the Democratic Party is
Speaker 1: in trouble because they got elected and couldn't do any
Speaker 1: of the things they claimed they could because they are
Speaker 1: are beholden not to people so much as like corporations.
Speaker 1: And yeah, so and the country isn't trouble because the
Speaker 1: other option is going to probably be Trump, like as
Speaker 1: much as people were like using wishful thinking and being like,
Speaker 1: ah well that'll that'll put the final nail in the coffin,
Speaker 1: Like that's not true that he's about to announce his campaign.
Speaker 1: Anybody who goes up against him in the campaign is
Speaker 1: probably going to get beat up pretty bad. But you're
Speaker 1: run to santas. I was hoping that maybe, like the
Speaker 1: Republicans would just prevent Trump from being the nominee. But
Speaker 1: they've they've tried that before, and they actively tried that.
Speaker 1: They couldn't do it before. Now that like half the
Speaker 1: party is in his thrall, like that's probably not going
Speaker 1: to happen. Oh yeah, they loved him. They he does
Speaker 1: whatever they want. Essentially, they've gotten a lot of they've
Speaker 1: got a lot of state power, through through Trump. Like
Speaker 1: we talked about the Supreme Court a lot, but so
Speaker 1: much ship happens through state courts as well too, a
Speaker 1: lot of it, and that's where they've stolen a lot
Speaker 1: of power. That's where they Jerry Aman did a lot. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I also I also want to challenge
Speaker 1: the narrative that people who like Bernie supporters didn't vote
Speaker 1: for Clinton, Like I feel like I want to challenge
Speaker 1: that every time it comes up, because we absolutely did.
Speaker 1: It was like Bernie supporters. It's like statistically wrong to
Speaker 1: say that we didn't because more you know, when you
Speaker 1: look at Hillary voters who uh went out for Obama,
Speaker 1: they're they're less than Bernie supporters went out for Clinton.
Speaker 1: And it's when I see people still talking about that rhetoric,
Speaker 1: like like especially after Rovie Wave got shot down, I
Speaker 1: saw a lot of people tweeting that, and it's just like,
Speaker 1: first of all, this is the same thing as like
Speaker 1: yelling at Susan Surrandon. She didn't she didn't do anything.
Speaker 1: She's just one person, just one scapegoat who cares. Yeah, No,
Speaker 1: I think I think it. I think is unfair to
Speaker 1: say Bernie supporters are the reason that Hillary didn't didn't
Speaker 1: get it. I do think, and I I understand ampathy
Speaker 1: towards our political system and and does my vote matter?
Speaker 1: And I do think. Look, like Brody, you brought up
Speaker 1: a great point. Trump was not the the person to
Speaker 1: start a lot you know, Trump didn't start the birth
Speaker 1: of movement. A lot of racist people in the backwoods
Speaker 1: of this country. We're saying that ship before Trump gave
Speaker 1: them a blow blowhorn or blowhorn to like say it
Speaker 1: out loud, you know what I'm saying. He just picked
Speaker 1: up on that was like, oh, I can get some
Speaker 1: support from this and ship and blah blah blah blah blah. Right,
Speaker 1: And so I think where the the anger comes from from,
Speaker 1: For instance, the folks who was like, I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: vote because I can't vote for the lesser of two evils,
Speaker 1: not the not the not Bernie supporters, but the people
Speaker 1: was like, I'm not participating in this ship, right. I
Speaker 1: think where the anger comes from is we saw the
Speaker 1: accelerant coming, you know, like you saw that. We we
Speaker 1: saw that if this dude it's in office, the acceleration
Speaker 1: to where we don't want to go, it's gonna come
Speaker 1: a lot fucking quicker than any of us probably think.
Speaker 1: And we saw that it did right in many ways.
Speaker 1: So I do think it is I think this notion
Speaker 1: that Bernie supporters are the reason we're here now, if
Speaker 1: they would have just voted for Clinton, then we would
Speaker 1: be here. Well, like you said, they did, they did
Speaker 1: over end. Yeah, but you know there are people who
Speaker 1: can hold else. There are people all over the place
Speaker 1: who can holding els. It's just you know, any politician
Speaker 1: has a lot of else. Yeah, really everyone. So the
Speaker 1: the other kind of centrists take that is getting more
Speaker 1: traction in less quote liberal mainstream media because it's coming
Speaker 1: from Mitt Romney. He like wrote opinion piece in The Atlantic.
Speaker 1: I think where he was like, America is in denial
Speaker 1: and there's a ball the eagle with a fucking blindfold
Speaker 1: as the main thing. So you know, we're in trouble.
Speaker 1: But this was basically the lead story on the Drudge
Speaker 1: Report over the weekend, which is still like one of
Speaker 1: the most popular news sources. Uh. It just links off
Speaker 1: to things, and his point is basically, we're in trouble
Speaker 1: because we're not treating any of our problems as real.
Speaker 1: The two main issues he comes back to our Trump
Speaker 1: is um and climate change, which absolutely like, yeah, those
Speaker 1: are those are the two issues. And he's like, the
Speaker 1: right is ignoring the you know, poison of authoritarianism with
Speaker 1: Trump and the dangers of climate change. The left is
Speaker 1: ignoring illegal immigration and the national debt. And he's like,
Speaker 1: so we just need to heap in the middle and
Speaker 1: figure this out. I want to know what conservatives have
Speaker 1: ever done for the national dat increase it exactly like
Speaker 1: there you know, like, uh, you know, Jack, I know
Speaker 1: your sports fan, Brody. I'm not sure how much into
Speaker 1: sports you are. We've talked about it sometimes, but like
Speaker 1: there's a such thing that's just like you know, analytics, right,
Speaker 1: but there there's also just like basic fucking stats, and
Speaker 1: the basic fucking stats just show you that, like the
Speaker 1: Republican Party has never been good for the economy. Yeah
Speaker 1: ever ever, those are just basically you don't even have
Speaker 1: to dig deep just because yeah, just the basic stats
Speaker 1: show that. And it's it's remarkable that people, especially people
Speaker 1: who are sports fans, which most Republicans are, they'll talk
Speaker 1: you to you blue in the face about football stats
Speaker 1: and all these other stats and then you throw them
Speaker 1: stats and be like, no, man, that ain't right, Like,
Speaker 1: all right, bro, all right, I mean yeah, to be fair,
Speaker 1: I could say that's a lot about the Democratic Party
Speaker 1: that is similar the Democratic Party, it's just Republican party. Light.
Speaker 1: I mean, like, if you want to vote for a
Speaker 1: party that isn't going to increase the military budget or
Speaker 1: give money to cops, like, you just don't have an option. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's yeah, absolutely absolutely right, and and and and that's
Speaker 1: and that's what we call the analytics stats right there, right,
Speaker 1: that's digging deeper. That's the deeper stats. But that is
Speaker 1: that would be the point that this You could you
Speaker 1: could have published that that sentence and been done with it.
Speaker 1: And instead they're like why don't people like why why
Speaker 1: are the middle of the road democrats disappearing? Their positions?
Speaker 1: Some of their positions are popular. Uh so why are
Speaker 1: they going extinct? And just a bunch of photoshops or
Speaker 1: illustrations of like donkeys with a unicorn corn to like
Speaker 1: be like, these are the magical fixers of our problem?
Speaker 1: Why are we orient Like that's which bright It's so
Speaker 1: funny that, like i I'm so leftis that sometimes when
Speaker 1: conservatives make fun of like democrats and liberals, I'm like,
Speaker 1: you're right, Joey. Al Right, well let's take a quick break,
Speaker 1: we'll come back, we'll talk about something that I know
Speaker 1: at least you Kis is excited about the Sour Patch
Speaker 1: Kid slush float and we're back and yeah, so this
Speaker 1: seems to be something more and more. I don't think
Speaker 1: it's just our show, Like it's definitely our show though,
Speaker 1: like I you know, broke up the recent episode in
Speaker 1: the aftermath of the review weight being overturned with a
Speaker 1: taste testing of various new forms of Mountain du Baha blast,
Speaker 1: just to you know, keep myself from wanting to jump
Speaker 1: out a window. And it seems like they're like we
Speaker 1: also talked about a cheesy Gordia Crunch or now it's
Speaker 1: a Mexican pizza toastada, a talk about creation that has
Speaker 1: a giant cheese it in the middle of it that
Speaker 1: everybody was going crazy about. It seems like there's a
Speaker 1: new one of these every week. I feel like, by
Speaker 1: the way, I saw someone order that cheese at toastada
Speaker 1: without any toppings and it was just a bit cheese it.
Speaker 1: Someone commented like this is uh, this is like like
Speaker 1: hamster appropriation or something like that. Go ahead. But yeah,
Speaker 1: so I mean, I that is, by the way, but
Speaker 1: worth the price of admission just to cheese it that big.
Speaker 1: Come on, Yeah, I feel like it gives us cold
Speaker 1: like pop cultural content that is both self hating in
Speaker 1: the sense that like you're consuming this and slowly killing
Speaker 1: yourself and then also devoid of It's not like a
Speaker 1: movie where like Chris Prett pops up and you're like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: Chris Prett. Yeah, so I don't know that. This seems
Speaker 1: to be the latest one. It's a slushy. You can
Speaker 1: look at it if you just Google. If you use Google,
Speaker 1: has little specs of Sara Patch kids in it, and
Speaker 1: then little specks of Sara Patch kids like sprinkled over.
Speaker 1: So it's Sara Patch watermelon flavored slush with vanilla ice
Speaker 1: cream on top. Jesus. And then this is one of
Speaker 1: those times where you where you really do have both
Speaker 1: sides panelists, because I am about this. Yeah, every candy
Speaker 1: into a bar, or a freaking ice cream or or
Speaker 1: a slurpee and this. I love a slurpee, I love
Speaker 1: a sour run, I love Hey, I get it. It's
Speaker 1: not an everyday thing. Yeah, yeah, it's right. Listen as
Speaker 1: a person who loves you know, oreo milkshake and stuff.
Speaker 1: We we always gonna put stuff and stuff, right, it
Speaker 1: is just the nature of how we create food and
Speaker 1: things were always gonna put. We're always gonna put stuff
Speaker 1: and stuff, man, you know, we always gonna find a
Speaker 1: way to put something or something you know, and fry
Speaker 1: it or or ice it or some way you know,
Speaker 1: blended together. It's fine, it's good. It's just at a
Speaker 1: certain point, like we need to just say, and this
Speaker 1: is for teenagers, this is what this is what people
Speaker 1: still growing, because this is for people you know, or
Speaker 1: or as a one time treat, you know, try it
Speaker 1: out and then leave it behind, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Like it's the reason why at thirty five, I don't
Speaker 1: do yeager shots anymore, but one I did because I
Speaker 1: have grown my body can't take it anymore, and things
Speaker 1: like this I do. Look, I love new food inventions.
Speaker 1: I love the big gass cheese it give it to
Speaker 1: me like I probably won't eat it, but I'm here
Speaker 1: for because eventually, like some of this ship is actually delicious, man,
Speaker 1: and we deprive ourselves of delicious things sometimes. But you know,
Speaker 1: a sour patch kid it's already sugary and sour enough,
Speaker 1: and end up throw that bitch in the in the slurpee,
Speaker 1: which is already sugary. It's like, which is flavor of
Speaker 1: the sour patch we're talking because if you're just throwing
Speaker 1: them all from there, you know what I mean? The watermelon,
Speaker 1: So the slur is the watermelon watermelon, So it is
Speaker 1: kids watermelon flavor slush real ice cream, which I always
Speaker 1: find it suspicious is when they put real next to
Speaker 1: ice cream ice cream. Yeah, so there's so there's a
Speaker 1: slush with vanilla ice cream topping and just like Sarah
Speaker 1: Patch Kids that have been put through a wood chipper,
Speaker 1: like just all throughout the whole thing, Like I don't
Speaker 1: know why why they had to like into little pieces
Speaker 1: Sara Patch Kids candy blitz they call it, which just
Speaker 1: means that it the slush is infused with Sara Patch
Speaker 1: Kids and then there there are some sprinkled Sara Patch
Speaker 1: Kids body parts and then the they're sprinkled over the
Speaker 1: top of the vanilla ice cream. I have read two
Speaker 1: reviews of this. One is like not great. It gives
Speaker 1: up five out of ten, but it still says it's smooth,
Speaker 1: which like I think I think the vanilla ice cream
Speaker 1: is I think they made this concoction. They tried it
Speaker 1: as a slush, and we're like, holy sh it, like
Speaker 1: some of my hair just fell out. A lot of
Speaker 1: it actually just fell out, And so gawk Er the
Speaker 1: New Revival Gawker, their journalists like went on a cross
Speaker 1: state hunt to find it and finally found it. But
Speaker 1: like the people wouldn't give them vanilla ice cream because
Speaker 1: they have the same ice cream soft serve machine issues
Speaker 1: that McDonald's has. I guess they like just gave them
Speaker 1: the slush and they were like, it tasted like upsetting.
Speaker 1: The taste is upsetting and to sour like it tastes
Speaker 1: like maybe some battery acid has been leaking into the batter.
Speaker 1: And but the other middling review that I read was
Speaker 1: like it's nice and smooth. The little texture the little
Speaker 1: bits of Sara Patch kids are chewy, which I find
Speaker 1: very suspicious. Both of them said that they like they're
Speaker 1: not any so I don't really funk with like gummy
Speaker 1: candy and ice cream because it gets too hard. They
Speaker 1: have done something chemically to the body parts of these
Speaker 1: Sara Patch kids that like they don't they don't get hard.
Speaker 1: They're just still like dummians and chewy, which I find
Speaker 1: suspicious in the way I don't want my food to
Speaker 1: be suspicious, both like impressive and like I am introducing
Speaker 1: a chemical into my body that was not there before.
Speaker 1: And there are a lot of chemicals in my body. Listen,
Speaker 1: the closest Sonics is twenty five miles away. All of
Speaker 1: the Sonics have a two or two point five writing
Speaker 1: on y'all. Yeah, if I leave now, I could get there.
Speaker 1: You get there in about fifty five minutes. You know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've been, I've been. I've been. I go to that
Speaker 1: Cracker Barrel right next to it every once in a while,
Speaker 1: and I'm you know, get a couple of stands going,
Speaker 1: get a couple of friends going, and go get go
Speaker 1: to you know, the the only restaurant that racism feels
Speaker 1: right to black people. I've never been a Cracker Barrel,
Speaker 1: But next time you go, let me know for sure.
Speaker 1: I like, I let you know, the pancakes and them biscuits.
Speaker 1: Why don't like? The food is fucking delicious. It's the reason,
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, look, you know, we got black people,
Speaker 1: and our black we got black people in our families.
Speaker 1: So there's a few things that black Board don't even
Speaker 1: you don't even trip. But I'm I'm here. I'm here
Speaker 1: for food ship. I I still think the greatest creation,
Speaker 1: the last great creation that the company has ever made,
Speaker 1: is the mcgriddle. That was the last great creation. Everything
Speaker 1: else has just been kind of like throwing it at
Speaker 1: the wall and seeing with sticks and kind of mediocre. Uh.
Speaker 1: And it's just some of the good but nothing has
Speaker 1: hat got some good stuff, we got serial stuff, but
Speaker 1: noneing has hit quite like the macgriddle has to me
Speaker 1: from a fast food joint, I should say, not just
Speaker 1: like everything. Man, I still get cheese in the crust
Speaker 1: from Pizza Hut. That's all that's all I got. I mean,
Speaker 1: listen that that was before the macgriddle, though, that's another stuff. Cuss,
Speaker 1: it was like we we have I'm waiting for the
Speaker 1: invention like that, the invention that's gonna be so good
Speaker 1: that they don't even run commercials footing bitches no more.
Speaker 1: I mean, what are your thoughts on Dorito's locos tacos.
Speaker 1: They're good, they're good, but you know, like I've had
Speaker 1: better tacos. Listen, they got the Doritos. They they they
Speaker 1: got those taco shells at the grocery store, so you
Speaker 1: can make them at home on your own and make them.
Speaker 1: I make them with my impossible meat. Oh it's a
Speaker 1: great time. I actually didn't realize that. So another plug
Speaker 1: for Kroger brand stores. Go out and get it delivered,
Speaker 1: Get it delivered delivered, Bromo co. All right, well, I
Speaker 1: will not be trying this. It sounds bad. So I
Speaker 1: think the they couldn't get the slush to follow through.
Speaker 1: You know how Sara Petch kids are sour and then
Speaker 1: they get sweet and like that's sort of the rhythm
Speaker 1: of eating Sara Petch kids like that. They couldn't do
Speaker 1: that with the slush. So they were just like, throw
Speaker 1: some vanilla scream on top of that ship and that'll
Speaker 1: be the sweet. But I don't know anyways, Brody as
Speaker 1: always truly a pleasure having you. Where can people find you?
Speaker 1: Follow you all that good stuff? You can find me

Speaker 1: tweet or some other work of social media that you've
Speaker 1: been enjoying. Um, yeah, I mean there's a lot of
Speaker 1: interesting tweets today I bookmark, but at the end of
Speaker 1: the day, I just gotta go with some stupid and
Speaker 1: one stupid thing I enjoyed. This is from like a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, when people watch movies like on
Speaker 1: their laptop, but they watch them through a snapchat filter
Speaker 1: on their phone, and and someone took a made a
Speaker 1: TikTok they I'm not even sure what movie it is.
Speaker 1: It's an al Pacino movie where he is like interrogating
Speaker 1: somehow he's blind. I saw this, Yeah, and they and
Speaker 1: they put the snapchat on where there where their their
Speaker 1: eyes are like bugging out, and it's like a it's
Speaker 1: like a serious scene where they're like yelling at each other.
Speaker 1: It's it's just so funny. I'm just gonna, I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna what do you guys? Put it in the put
Speaker 1: it in the chat. We will put it in the footnotes.
Speaker 1: Don't make you laugh, I guarantee you, Jakis. Where can
Speaker 1: people find you? What is a work of social media
Speaker 1: that you've been enjoying? Ah, you know, you can always
Speaker 1: find me in the streets. Uh and at Jack Keith
Speaker 1: Neil on Instagram only Uh, you know, I've been, I'm in,
Speaker 1: I'm been a joint. I got three for you. They're
Speaker 1: very quick. Obviously it's hard to like because their memes
Speaker 1: or their videos. Uh so I'll just give them shoutouts
Speaker 1: instead of reading the tweet. But there is one. This
Speaker 1: one actually is a tweet, and it is you know,
Speaker 1: Stranger Things Volume volume two is out, which, you know what,
Speaker 1: no matter what you think about it, me personally, I
Speaker 1: thought volume two of CS four was sucking dope. I
Speaker 1: loved it. But there is a sweet Vegna every time
Speaker 1: he hears Kate Bush and it's him, just it's the
Speaker 1: actor playing Vecna in the makeup chair, just with his
Speaker 1: hands on his eyes, just like sighing and like, god
Speaker 1: damn it. Which if you don't watch Stranger Things, that
Speaker 1: probably doesn't mean anything to you. But if you do
Speaker 1: watch Stranger Things, it is very fucking funny. And then
Speaker 1: you know Tony Baker v O if you or just
Speaker 1: Tony Baker in general, one of the funniest dudes, and
Speaker 1: he does animal voiceovers, go check this out. They're always funny.
Speaker 1: Some are just so great. But my favorite memes since
Speaker 1: the last time I've been on is just how black
Speaker 1: people start gossiping, and it is you got me on
Speaker 1: speaker or you by yourself. That's funny. Yeah, I have
Speaker 1: one more for you. You just reminded me. Um. This
Speaker 1: is just like a short TikTok of I don't know what.
Speaker 1: I don't know what this is. It seems like some
Speaker 1: kind of like um black men's convention, but everyone in
Speaker 1: the video is dressed like they have a Steve Harvey
Speaker 1: suit on, and they're they're going around a circle and
Speaker 1: they're they're they're they're they're dancing to blow the whistle
Speaker 1: and they're all doing kind of like this step, but
Speaker 1: they're all adding their own flavor to it. And it's
Speaker 1: like it's like it's like a hundred black men, all
Speaker 1: just like Steve Harvey. It is great. It changed my day,
Speaker 1: that's all. I love it. I love it. I'm looking
Speaker 1: at it now. It's very funny. All right. You can
