Speaker 1: was Jupiter? By the way, it was, it was you know,
Speaker 1: it was a little a little anxiety inducing, But after
Speaker 1: like thirty or seven minutes, I I've conned myself calmed down. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I I think edibles might be I think like the
Speaker 1: sleep weed gumming might be the move. I just I
Speaker 1: don't think I have it in me for like chocolate
Speaker 1: bars or like uh or like the vape pins. I
Speaker 1: need a very small exact dose, I think to really
Speaker 1: get my sleepy sweets. But yeah, I see, I'm I'm glad.
Speaker 1: I took like a twelve day break because I even
Speaker 1: like edibles. In my time, it was like criminal to
Speaker 1: the point I was like, this is just a waste
Speaker 1: of money and I shouldn't do this anymore. Like oh look,
Speaker 1: I my buddy got me a chocolate bar and I
Speaker 1: got like three pieces of it before like I went
Speaker 1: to bed like maybe a week ago. And when I
Speaker 1: tell you, I was like I was having a panic attack,
Speaker 1: like I I could like fill myself reading like I was,
Speaker 1: I was seeing ship. It was crazy like it pretty
Speaker 1: much was it very much was. There was like tweets
Speaker 1: that are like uh the ship and wait doing ship
Speaker 1: and then twenty minutes like the SpongeBob like Mr krab. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was like that funked up from like doing anything
Speaker 1: with weed. It was. It was crazy. I can't go back.
Speaker 1: I'm not. Yeah, somebody replied to me talking about getting
Speaker 1: too high and like having all the thoughts that people
Speaker 1: were having about the James Webb pictures, like when I was,
Speaker 1: you know, thirteen, just being like we're all space dust man,
Speaker 1: we're also small. Somebody tweeted and said, like the you know,
Speaker 1: the meme with the crying like squinty, bad drawn guy
Speaker 1: versus like the elevated vang go looking guy. You know,
Speaker 1: the crying space guy was like looking at the night
Speaker 1: sky and makes me realize how puny and insignificant I
Speaker 1: am on a cosmic scale, And the elevated guy was like,
Speaker 1: I am the result of fourteen billion years of cosmic evolution.
Speaker 1: I am a thermodynamic miracle. I am the waking universe
Speaker 1: looking back at itself. And I was like, man, where
Speaker 1: were you when I was thirteen? Or the one thing
Speaker 1: I remember Joe Rogan saying about weed that I'm like, well,
Speaker 1: that's trippy. He's like the reason you're uncomfortable, and he's
Speaker 1: more weed. It's because you're expanding, man, because fucking you're
Speaker 1: creating new limits for yourself, and by definition that ship
Speaker 1: is different and jarring. I was like, oh, ship, I'm
Speaker 1: back back when Joe Rogan was a drug podcast and
Speaker 1: not a fucking nazi right wings Yeah, soft soft, soft
Speaker 1: lunch for millions of fascists. I just like, I feel
Speaker 1: like they take that I always had when I saw
Speaker 1: like space ship, what my first thing was like, yo,
Speaker 1: but what if out there they're looking at the same
Speaker 1: picture but from the other side. That was my first thought.
Speaker 1: It was I didn't get my ego death ship to
Speaker 1: like maybe college. But yeah, my, my, my. My thought
Speaker 1: process lately has been like man, I'm just bummed I'm
Speaker 1: never gonna be able to meet like a forearmed alien,
Speaker 1: Like I'm just so upset, like I'm never going to
Speaker 1: meet like a weird like hey, you never know, man, man,
Speaker 1: Like I would love nothing more than like cool, peaceful
Speaker 1: aliens like that, like the Independence Day ones like just
Speaker 1: like stop by Koreatown, like, hey, what's up, d you
Speaker 1: want to go? Like go around the universe a couple
Speaker 1: of days like let's do They're like, hey, man, you
Speaker 1: know a good Korean fluid spot? I'm I got crab.
Speaker 1: I like that better A comes and it's like, yo, man,
Speaker 1: show me a good time. You know, some legs for
Speaker 1: like Gorfax, it would be great, man, right, and he
Speaker 1: pricks his like skin because he didn't he didn't use
Speaker 1: the cracker you like hurt yourself on that crab leg.
Speaker 1: I mean they're here, they haven't killed us yet, and
Speaker 1: I do feel like they're doing some tourism. I think
Speaker 1: most of their tourism is like underwater right now. So
Speaker 1: that's yeah, I get it, man. The city is pretty cool.
Speaker 1: I get it, bro, But come get at me, get
Speaker 1: at zi. Yeah. All right, Well we're gonna get to
Speaker 1: know you a little bit better in a moment. First,
Speaker 1: we're gonna tell our listeners a couple of things we're
Speaker 1: talking about. A couple of names are starting to get
Speaker 1: mentioned around the subject of like, but who who would
Speaker 1: run if BI didn't finally takes the fucking hint for
Speaker 1: the Democratic nomination one of these I don't think I
Speaker 1: had heard the name like two weeks ago, Pritsker, and
Speaker 1: then and then there's the Gavin Newsom of it all.
Speaker 1: So we're just gonna check in, so just let them
Speaker 1: know we got our eye on on them, so that
Speaker 1: this is an update on a story. I'm almost positive
Speaker 1: we talked about this ship. This conservative dude who claimed
Speaker 1: that someone painted like Joe Biden and the Anarchy sign
Speaker 1: on his garage and we were like, Yo, nobody has
Speaker 1: ever done that. That's impossible. It's impossible for those two
Speaker 1: impulses to exist. Anyways, with that person was found out
Speaker 1: to be a fraud and get engaging and yeah, we're
Speaker 1: gonna talk about the JR fifteen and a R fifteen
Speaker 1: for kids that is real. Somehow, We're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: Starbucks fucking around in the Chicken Sandwich wars plentymore. First
Speaker 1: did not go well. Didn't go well for Starbucks. Not surprised.
Speaker 1: We don't need more people in the arms race for Chicken.
Speaker 1: There's like three spots. We'll get into it. We don't
Speaker 1: need more. We don't need to keep your innion busting
Speaker 1: ass out of this. Yeah, but before we get to
Speaker 1: any of that ship, say, we like to ask our guest,
Speaker 1: what is something from your search history? Oh uh, well,
Speaker 1: it speaks to my grapes of capitalism? Is a well
Speaker 1: paying credit card bill early increase your credit score? I
Speaker 1: I took a hit for fifty points, like my credits
Speaker 1: trash has always been trashed, but like I excciually took
Speaker 1: a hit for fifty like maybe thirty points to the
Speaker 1: other week. I'm desperately just trying to get up to
Speaker 1: some work good, Like I just want to see that
Speaker 1: little needle go to like just towards the green, just
Speaker 1: like a little bit. It's been read for so long.
Speaker 1: I category you want your capitalism E meter reading, get
Speaker 1: my capitalism eating up to a good level. U you
Speaker 1: need to be a level three consumer to get that
Speaker 1: work on that? Would you like some DLC you can
Speaker 1: download to like get to this or what? That is
Speaker 1: wild that somebody was just like, hey, we're going to
Speaker 1: create a grade that is just like grading you as
Speaker 1: a capitalist. And you're like, we're going to make billions
Speaker 1: of dollars doing it and have access to all your information.
Speaker 1: And when you do good, you your your score goes down.
Speaker 1: If you if you pay off a loan, guess what
Speaker 1: your score is going down? Baby? You said so, yeah,
Speaker 1: well whoa, you're paying that off way too quick. Yeah. No,
Speaker 1: you need to be stuck in. You need me shackle
Speaker 1: to us. That's the whole point. Do you ever figure
Speaker 1: out how you got the fifty point hit or was
Speaker 1: it just I think some of those student loans started,
Speaker 1: uh it hit some du collectors. So I think that's
Speaker 1: what that's what happened. Baby. Look ella takes to have
Speaker 1: a six hund level credit score and be immy nominated
Speaker 1: is to go into crippling debt. It's a It's great, guys,
Speaker 1: it's all you need. Mutual exclusive. Yeah, what is what? Something?
Speaker 1: Do you think is underrated? Underrated? Oh? You know what
Speaker 1: this is? I think I don't know if I've said
Speaker 1: this before, but like not having a take on something
Speaker 1: that you're own informed about, like I I nothing is
Speaker 1: better than just shutting up and not speaking and opening
Speaker 1: your mouth about any type of subject, particularly if you
Speaker 1: have no no investment or you don't know what's going on.
Speaker 1: Like my favorit thing to do when I see online
Speaker 1: discourse is not engaged because I have no take on
Speaker 1: what's going on, Like no one needs to hear my
Speaker 1: thought on it, and I'm out. I want to be
Speaker 1: clean and free, right like I'm not gonna add any fuel.
Speaker 1: I don't want to get I don't want to give
Speaker 1: anyone any little bit any like any like take an inch,
Speaker 1: take they take them out, Like I don't want any
Speaker 1: an excuse to get dragged. I just I did don't
Speaker 1: need it. I don't look for it like I mean sick, well,
Speaker 1: I see you move on Twitter. You have opinions, man, yeah,
Speaker 1: but they're always like coo coo can beat up for
Speaker 1: Jeta or like it's never like actual real things you know,
Speaker 1: or like you know, based off like you know, all
Speaker 1: cops are bastards, like things that are pretty like like
Speaker 1: undeniable you know. Yeah we're talking about science. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you can do the mixture. You can see that what
Speaker 1: some do you think is over rated? Most online discourse
Speaker 1: revolving around film, like film Twitter brings me such uh
Speaker 1: such psyche. It really it's such as like an immense
Speaker 1: p like a damage to me. I have to watch
Speaker 1: another person yell at someone else for like liking a
Speaker 1: movie like I just can't do it. It's no, it
Speaker 1: means nothing. Guys like, let let them enjoy the thing.
Speaker 1: Let them if they want to watch Transformers six? Who
Speaker 1: gives a ship? Like when no one's getting out of
Speaker 1: this thing of life like just you know when you okay?
Speaker 1: Because I feel like this is an evolution all people
Speaker 1: have like because I'll speak for myself, right, I was
Speaker 1: like a very opinionated film kid from around twelve years old,
Speaker 1: just by virtue of growing up in l A, my
Speaker 1: mom being a film critic, so I had fucking opinions.
Speaker 1: Then college I became in fucking sufferable like with I
Speaker 1: would be like, no, turn this off, like this is
Speaker 1: so doct like just so pretentious. And then around I
Speaker 1: think maybe like my maybe too, like late twenties, like
Speaker 1: I heard my I heard like out loud, like how
Speaker 1: I was talking about something, and I was like, this
Speaker 1: is such a waste of energy that like I became
Speaker 1: embarrassed for myself and I was just like this is
Speaker 1: actually not even useful to anybody except you know. Yeah.
Speaker 1: It was the exact same way like in film school,
Speaker 1: like this, these are these are the film the films
Speaker 1: the cinema you need to watch. And then I got order.
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, who gives a Ship? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I want to watch, uh, the thirty six Chambers of Shaldon.
Speaker 1: That's just as much fun as watching the Bicycle Thief
Speaker 1: for whatever you're right, or for the four hundred Blues,
Speaker 1: like who gives a Ship? Yeah? And I think probably
Speaker 1: all the Star Wars like just loser Star Wars fans
Speaker 1: that had shipped to say like the last couple of years,
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, this is so stupid.
Speaker 1: Just let the fun Like, trust me, I had issues
Speaker 1: with some of the films, but I don't give a
Speaker 1: funk enough when we have so much other ship calling on. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm like like, like, I'm gonna give the country three
Speaker 1: more president elections before it collapses. So I'm like, you
Speaker 1: know what, who cares you enjoy your justice league Snyder cut?
Speaker 1: Who gives you like We'll have plenty of time to
Speaker 1: bicker about the Snyder cut when we're in forced labor
Speaker 1: camps for Yeah, we were the camps outside of the June,
Speaker 1: We'll have plenty of time to argue about whether you
Speaker 1: shot first Haunt or Grit to Yeah. I I like
Speaker 1: the main thing I'm interested in here and is like
Speaker 1: people who are like calling out movies that are secretly
Speaker 1: like much better than we give them credit for. Like,
Speaker 1: that's the only use I have for critics now, the
Speaker 1: way that the ideas are communicated. Right when it's like
Speaker 1: I'm dunking on you because you're stupid and you don't
Speaker 1: know this about film, then I'm like this you you're
Speaker 1: losing me. But like to the point to your point
Speaker 1: if it's like here's something that isn't discussed enough. I
Speaker 1: think it's really just about the presentation. When people come
Speaker 1: with their chests out. It's like, yeah, I think the
Speaker 1: energy like having like just a little NEGGETI of kindness,
Speaker 1: but hey, I want to this is the thing that
Speaker 1: I watched that I really enjoyed. I think other people
Speaker 1: would enjoy. I think that's the energy I'm looking for
Speaker 1: these days, like the next I mean, most online discourses
Speaker 1: is poisonous to begin with, but like I the need
Speaker 1: to like dunk in roast and just like drag people.
Speaker 1: It's exhausting after seeing it for so long. He's like, man,
Speaker 1: we maybe maybe just like maybe just like coming with
Speaker 1: a nice energy, Maybe that's what we need. Maybe that's
Speaker 1: what people need for online discourse. Kindness, kindness, thought will win.
Speaker 1: But you know that energy, Jack? Did you did you
Speaker 1: ever have like a just like a weird film take
Speaker 1: that you were really like charged up about, like in
Speaker 1: your in your younger days when you're like that devoted
Speaker 1: too much energy to that film, like an anti like
Speaker 1: whatever negative were you were? You? Were you an evangelical?
Speaker 1: Were you or were you a hater? I was always
Speaker 1: interested in talking about movies like that. I was really into,
Speaker 1: even if they were dumb. Like I like talking about movies.
Speaker 1: I didn't. I like to read movie reviews. But I
Speaker 1: didn't ever have like a this is trash. I had
Speaker 1: more of a die Hard four is just as good
Speaker 1: as die Hard three and die Hard to take or
Speaker 1: like the Jaws sequels have more value than people give
Speaker 1: them credit for. I almost gotten a fight because I
Speaker 1: insisted walk Hard was one of the worst films ever made.
Speaker 1: Story huh do we co and like and like? In hindsight,
Speaker 1: I was like, it's kind of funny. But at that
Speaker 1: time I was I thought I had like not even
Speaker 1: a third eye, like a fourth and fifth. I opened
Speaker 1: up for cinema and I was like, this is so
Speaker 1: such a waste of energy. Like I don't know what
Speaker 1: the funk I was going. I mean, I was going
Speaker 1: through a breakup at the time, I know, so I
Speaker 1: just hated everything. But I remember everyone was like, yo,
Speaker 1: this is like this is too much. But anyway, shout
Speaker 1: out to those old times. What about you? Did you
Speaker 1: ever have a film like you rode too hard for
Speaker 1: or or against? I mean, yeah, it's I mean I
Speaker 1: when I tell you. I thought the first transform movie
Speaker 1: Transformers Movies, was so fucking good. This movie is great.
Speaker 1: It's got great action, it's got great pacing. It looks fantastic.
Speaker 1: All the actors are banging. And then I rewatched it
Speaker 1: like maybe like two weeks later with a friend. Like
Speaker 1: halfway through, I was like, Oh, this movie I think
Speaker 1: is a piece of ship. Like there's always like there's
Speaker 1: only like two action scenes. Like it's also like like
Speaker 1: like there's a one point like a robot pisces on
Speaker 1: like John Tatua. I'm like, this is stupid, Like this
Speaker 1: is a like robo excrement. Can we explain that or not?
Speaker 1: I'll say that's that is the one place that I
Speaker 1: will be like real harsh and start like shooting on
Speaker 1: a movie as if I have like like if it
Speaker 1: tricked me, Like Forrest Gump. When I saw it when
Speaker 1: I was twelve, I was like, this movie is just
Speaker 1: all Americana. And then I wrote in an after Hours
Speaker 1: episode about Forrest Gump and it was the meanest I've
Speaker 1: ever been in a movie in any format, And I
Speaker 1: think justifiably so. I think that's one of the most
Speaker 1: harmful movies about American history. That's ever been made. But yeah,
Speaker 1: that when when it's like you got me, son of
Speaker 1: a bitch, Like then I'll probably have a little bit
Speaker 1: more of an edge ont on my fucking high horse
Speaker 1: with stuff. That's why I like, I look back and
Speaker 1: like you really tried to make your like your ship
Speaker 1: known by going hard at walk hard. Yeah what you guys,
Speaker 1: Miles really fucking took down Dewey Cox And this I
Speaker 1: don't think his newsletter, He's got his yeah exactly out
Speaker 1: his YouTube page. I don't how much do you think
Speaker 1: just the mood you're in going into a movie determines,
Speaker 1: like what whether it's a four star versus like a
Speaker 1: one star two star experience. I think that has everything,
Speaker 1: it has everything to do with it, And I feel
Speaker 1: that's why I'm not interested in reviews. Is like I'm
Speaker 1: just like, yeah, you were having a bad day, man,
Speaker 1: Like That's how I feel about movies when I'm having
Speaker 1: a bad day. Like I said, also, like I think
Speaker 1: my version, I said the inverse of that is like
Speaker 1: going in thinking something's going to be a complete piece
Speaker 1: of ship, and then you watch it you're like, all right,
Speaker 1: this is like fine. So I think that's where a
Speaker 1: lot of like my three out of five three out
Speaker 1: of five stars would come like, oh I came in,
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be absolute darkshit, and it's
Speaker 1: just like a fine movie. So now I'm just like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you should go see this movie. It's it's like, because
Speaker 1: you started at a negative one four star rendered it
Speaker 1: to just a three out of five. It's like I
Speaker 1: burned one star overcoming like preconceived notion. Yeah, like the
Speaker 1: energy thing, I just I don't know if I'm putting
Speaker 1: a bow on it. But like in high school, I
Speaker 1: remember getting so mad at somebody acting like they were
Speaker 1: too good to see anger management that I put him
Speaker 1: to sleep and I like I choked him out because
Speaker 1: I was like I was going to management. Was no,
Speaker 1: like no, like he was like yo, I was, I
Speaker 1: saw anger manage over the weekend. She was so bad.
Speaker 1: I walked out and I said, oh, you're a real
Speaker 1: tough guy, huh. And I just like jumped on. It
Speaker 1: was so like this is me at my worst, a
Speaker 1: grow like you know, parents splitting up. I don't know
Speaker 1: who the funk I am phase. I mean, we're cool now,
Speaker 1: but it was just again a moment where my mood
Speaker 1: even my life. Tough guy unbelievable, like you yeah, oh
Speaker 1: you think that's oh you think you bet it an
Speaker 1: anger management? Like what oh my god? Yeah, look, I've
Speaker 1: done a lot of growth. You cost pst anger management.
Speaker 1: That was one of like five movies in my film
Speaker 1: my career as a film critic for the Georgetown Hoya
Speaker 1: that was that was one of the films I reviewed,
Speaker 1: And somebody got mad at me for being too nice
Speaker 1: to it. It's not good. What's wrong with you? I'm
Speaker 1: like that was oh tough guy? Huh yeah, Like I mean,
Speaker 1: and you were just going back and forth being you
Speaker 1: know that there's no way you're gonna talk tuck yourself
Speaker 1: out of situation begins with oh you're a tough guy,
Speaker 1: or like hey, what's up, big fella? Like you're never
Speaker 1: getting out of that. Like even to this day, I
Speaker 1: remember happening in the band room okay right for a
Speaker 1: band marching band practice kicked off, and one of my
Speaker 1: homeways to this day still talks about, oh you tough guy. Huh.
Speaker 1: You know, we referenced that moment because it was just
Speaker 1: like it was like, what is wrong with you? Just
Speaker 1: talking anger management? Take the second act in work. Oh
Speaker 1: my man, can spend the money to go to a
Speaker 1: m C and then walk out to like wow, okay,
Speaker 1: money bags. Okay, let's see what that wind pipe do? Where?
Speaker 1: Where was such a great movie to reveal your anger? Man?
Speaker 1: It was just too It looked it's sixteen seventeen year
Speaker 1: old models was not doing I want to see background.
Speaker 1: You just see a giant poster of it behind his
Speaker 1: head in a bunch of a bunch beside holes in
Speaker 1: the drywall. Yeah, alright, let's take a quick break. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back. And we're back and all right. So,
Speaker 1: like the big news of the past couple of weeks,
Speaker 1: nobody wants Joe Biden to run like it's of people
Speaker 1: are like, yeah, I guess you could run again. Everyone
Speaker 1: I was like, no, man, go go away. Yeah, unless
Speaker 1: you're part of or whatever was trending on Twitter a
Speaker 1: couple of days ago. There's like sort of a background
Speaker 1: conversation in those articles where they where they started like
Speaker 1: bringing up Kamala and like what you know, as kind
Speaker 1: of mentioning her as the presumptive replacement, which I think
Speaker 1: would also not go very well. Maybe no one's interested
Speaker 1: in either of these two. I mean you guys know,
Speaker 1: like we were so uninterested in in inverting for them
Speaker 1: in the first place. You know, we were just saying, guys,
Speaker 1: like that that meme of Rihanna throwing the cash in
Speaker 1: the dude's face if he walks behind stage like that
Speaker 1: was like us, vote to be done with it, and
Speaker 1: we'll allow it. Just get Trump out of office and
Speaker 1: then well then we'll deal with you later. Anyways, the
Speaker 1: mainstream media is starting to pay attention to a couple
Speaker 1: of people, so I just wanted to like kind of
Speaker 1: put their names on the podcast Get initial thoughts. Gavin
Speaker 1: Newsom kind of makes sense as a mainstream pick mainstream media,
Speaker 1: like he's somebody who they've just like had their eye on.
Speaker 1: I feel like the mainstream Democratic Party, and he's getting
Speaker 1: some attention. He went to d C and was talking
Speaker 1: about Red States and feels like he's like, I'm here
Speaker 1: for it. I'll talk shit about Republicans fighter. And then
Speaker 1: there's J. B. Pritsker, who sounds like you know, and
Speaker 1: he probably does or at least like lives off of
Speaker 1: wealth generated from a company town because he has aired
Speaker 1: to the highest fortune. It's probably worth like three points
Speaker 1: something billion. Dollars. But like he once he reached office,
Speaker 1: as he's the governor of Illinois, I think once he
Speaker 1: reached office, he like started doing like sort of like
Speaker 1: spouting some socialist talking points and actually doing i mean,
Speaker 1: not really socialist as much as just like what democrats
Speaker 1: should be doing, like the bare minimum of what democrats
Speaker 1: should be doing. And people are like, WHOA, he's got
Speaker 1: his he's got his eye on the presidency. He's actually
Speaker 1: doing stuff, considering what like four out of eight or
Speaker 1: nine governors of Illinois been arrested, right, Yeah, so I
Speaker 1: don't know it. The Gawker published a thing that was
Speaker 1: like the you know, we're endorsing billionaire socialist Jamie Prisker.
Speaker 1: They were joking, but they did like half of the
Speaker 1: article was like, but he's like doing a pretty good
Speaker 1: job and like seems to like take these talking points seriously.
Speaker 1: They did also point out he is a millionaire who
Speaker 1: loves money enough to have had all of the toilets
Speaker 1: removed from his mansion to get out of paying taxes
Speaker 1: on his mansion. Yeah, it's uninhabitable man toilets. That was
Speaker 1: the that was the logic. There was you toilets. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can't live here probably not that means this place
Speaker 1: I don't have to pay that extra two dollars of
Speaker 1: whatever year. Yeah, and he ended up having to pay
Speaker 1: like three grand anyway, Like but I don't know. It
Speaker 1: is one of those things, right, Like it's funny too
Speaker 1: that Newsome and Pritzker are mentioned at the same time,
Speaker 1: because Gavin Newsome, right, like, his his family is like
Speaker 1: tight with the Gettys because his dad and the Gettys
Speaker 1: were like his dad like facilitated like that like kidnapping
Speaker 1: payment to be made, Like yo, yeah, that's how Like,
Speaker 1: So Gavin Newsom is like already in with the getting
Speaker 1: is all fucking nefotism all the way down to that. Right,
Speaker 1: the Pritzkers are big in California politics, and because of
Speaker 1: his proximity to the Getties, Gavin Newsom's rise to like
Speaker 1: power also involves the Pritskers backing him to You're going
Speaker 1: to be like Pritsker was the one who kidnapped. No,
Speaker 1: but like they, you know, like they were like some
Speaker 1: of the first like you know, upper crust California elites
Speaker 1: to like give their like you know, sign off on
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom. So it's all like in this same world.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm curious, like, is it going to be
Speaker 1: is Pritsker Can he be the true, uh sort of
Speaker 1: class trader that we would need for for people to
Speaker 1: be like, oh, it's not odious to have like a
Speaker 1: billionaire there. And I get it, like when you look
Speaker 1: at the politics that like he's actually put into play,
Speaker 1: like putting the putting the state of Illinois, like on
Speaker 1: like being I think almost fully on renewables by and
Speaker 1: like minimum wage and getting rid of cash bail and
Speaker 1: like expunging all those like cannabis charges and things like that.
Speaker 1: I get that. Like people are like, well, he does
Speaker 1: all the things that he said he do, which makes
Speaker 1: you more ad for what a Democrat is because Republicans,
Speaker 1: you're like, yo, all that racist, nazi like theocratic shit
Speaker 1: they're doing they do, yeah, whereas Democrats are like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel like people deserve you know, living ways. And
Speaker 1: even with him, he you know, he came out and
Speaker 1: said Biden wasn't doing enough when the Dobbs decision came
Speaker 1: down that overturned Rowe. So I think like in those
Speaker 1: in those in that in those ways, yes, he looks
Speaker 1: much better than the field, for sure, I also like
Speaker 1: the fact, like as producer Justin is pointing out, like
Speaker 1: Newsome looks like Matthew McConaughey's better looking cousin, Like he
Speaker 1: just like looks like or like, you know, he's like
Speaker 1: very yeah, very bate. He looks like he was created
Speaker 1: in a lab to be a in a movie. Like
Speaker 1: he's like the he's like the bad mayor in like
Speaker 1: RoboCop five. Like that's what that's very much the interge
Speaker 1: that he looks and getting radiots with. I feel like
Speaker 1: that's part of the reason he's even at this like
Speaker 1: being mentioned right, you know, or that he's at this
Speaker 1: point in his career and you don't you don't have
Speaker 1: that ship with j BA. We gotta run as far
Speaker 1: away just from the optics. He just based off of
Speaker 1: the Tim Robinson. I think you should leave logic he
Speaker 1: has slicked back hair. Yeah, he's a real a real
Speaker 1: piece of ship. Was slicked back there. I don't And
Speaker 1: I think there's also because of that. I think it
Speaker 1: would instantly energize more conservatives, Like already he's hated by
Speaker 1: California Republicans, you know, like for their own reasons, and
Speaker 1: you know, whatever you can debate what those are on
Speaker 1: its own, but like it's like when you put that
Speaker 1: on a national stage, like he reads like greasy lib
Speaker 1: guy instantly. So whereas Pritzker, like in a lot of
Speaker 1: these writ ups that they point to, like, dude, this
Speaker 1: guy talks like he's from the Midwest. He doesn't like
Speaker 1: he doesn't he doesn't seem all like I went to like,
Speaker 1: you know, the Ivy League and it's been condescending. So
Speaker 1: he looks like he just looks like he looks like
Speaker 1: he is sleeping one off. Yeah, it looks like how
Speaker 1: like classic world leaders used to look before the entry
Speaker 1: as television, Like just sloppy pieces of ship, Like you
Speaker 1: feel like he has like a corn beef pash and
Speaker 1: like his breast pocket. Like that's the edge I think
Speaker 1: I'm looking for visually in a in a leader right now,
Speaker 1: if they're going to be a gross capitalist, like at
Speaker 1: least look the part like don't look like you're Who's
Speaker 1: that dude from Popeye who always wants the hamburgers? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Like what's his name? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, like that
Speaker 1: like that kind of vibe that feels like disarming. I
Speaker 1: feel like like like Hamburgers man, Yeah, if if I
Speaker 1: was keeping first the socialist though, and I need someone
Speaker 1: who looks like I can beat them at a foot race.
Speaker 1: That's the energy I'm looking for in my politicians. At
Speaker 1: this point, I think, yeah, yeah, I mean, what's interesting
Speaker 1: about that gawker right up to is they're like they're like, yeah, look,
Speaker 1: there's clearly like from even like progressives in Illinois, they
Speaker 1: were like sort of stunned that he made good on
Speaker 1: a lot of these promises and things like that. And
Speaker 1: to like point about the meme mobility, they're saying it's
Speaker 1: like they kind of need an element of fun like
Speaker 1: to back a candidate, if you know, for right or wrong.
Speaker 1: Not to say that I don't like they're even saying
Speaker 1: like we're not going full plane for president here, but
Speaker 1: they're saying like there's an element of having a character
Speaker 1: like that that kind of makes it easy for people
Speaker 1: to be like yeah, man, fucking yeah, I mean guy again. Like,
Speaker 1: I think that's why a lot of people, I mean
Speaker 1: people are also like just a lot of racist and
Speaker 1: fashions out there. But like, I think one of the
Speaker 1: reason people latched on the Trump so much that like
Speaker 1: he's a funny guy, like he I hate to say it,
Speaker 1: but like he is funny, Like it's like in the
Speaker 1: when when you're going through it, it's not very funny.
Speaker 1: But like like the tweet that he had the other
Speaker 1: day about Elon Musk or like I guess not whatever,
Speaker 1: like the fascist version of like Twitter is like that.
Speaker 1: I was like, it's funny, Like it's a funny. It's
Speaker 1: very funny, Like I hate to missay it out loud,
Speaker 1: but like the way that's written, it's very funny, like
Speaker 1: like posts like great, you know he's figured it out,
Speaker 1: and like that's why it's like because then last year
Speaker 1: we had to be like Biden is a fucking dried
Speaker 1: up pumice stone wearing a suit where he's at like
Speaker 1: he's probably exactly there. There was no fun It was
Speaker 1: the threat of fashion that was like yeah, this guy.
Speaker 1: It was never like Joe, Yeah, like it was I
Speaker 1: distinctly remember that like end of End of the Empire
Speaker 1: strikes back or into Revenge the Jedi whatever, when like
Speaker 1: the death Star blows up and everyone's celebrating across the universe,
Speaker 1: Like that's very much like l a like Demmi dancing
Speaker 1: on top of that car for eight hours and like
Speaker 1: for a guy that we didn't even actually want to
Speaker 1: vote for. Like that's the end. That's much pressure we
Speaker 1: were under exactly. Yeah. Well, speaking of guy we didn't
Speaker 1: actually want to vote for, and there was absolutely zero
Speaker 1: energy out there for him. Let's talk about the scandal
Speaker 1: around Dennis Mola's camper being set on fire and his
Speaker 1: garage defaced. Yeah, I mean September of this man in
Speaker 1: Minnesota said, I can't believe what happened. Okay, I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna read from this Washington Post article or yeah, he
Speaker 1: says when Dennis Vladimireovitch Mola told authorities that his camper
Speaker 1: was set on fire in his garage to face, the
Speaker 1: Minnesota man said that whoever carried out the attack was
Speaker 1: motivated by the Trump flag he had displayed from his vehicle.
Speaker 1: As pictures circulated of a vandalized garage door in September
Speaker 1: that was spray painted with Biden BLM and an anarchy symbol.
Speaker 1: Mala then collected thousands of dollars there for the reported
Speaker 1: arson through his insurance company and online donations. It just
Speaker 1: shocked me, he told the local news after the incident.
Speaker 1: This kind of stuff should not happen, especially over beliefs
Speaker 1: of some sort, but prosecutors have concluded, almost two years later,
Speaker 1: that Mola stayed the entire no shit, care to revise
Speaker 1: your bullshit story? I mean wow, And like he's being
Speaker 1: charged with why you're fraud filing fraudulent insurance claims benefiting
Speaker 1: from online fundraisers from the fake to arts And so,
Speaker 1: I mean, here's the thing, Like I get that we
Speaker 1: all live in our socio political bubbles, but like, where
Speaker 1: is this magical Biden supporter? And like, y'all, I get
Speaker 1: that on Fox News you're constantly just hearing blood libel
Speaker 1: about like democrats and how progressives want to eat the
Speaker 1: dead of like children and all this other weird ship
Speaker 1: to make people sound completely inhumane and dehumanize them. We've
Speaker 1: seen this playbook play out before, but like to then
Speaker 1: just be like, yeah, it's a loose smattering of Biden,
Speaker 1: BLM and anarchy, And that's that's a real suspect the
Speaker 1: profilers are gonna know exactly who this person is. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's when you really just gotta do a Google search,
Speaker 1: Like what are the kids talking about these days? I
Speaker 1: was like, black map matter, They fucking hate Biden. Anarchists
Speaker 1: hate everyone. It's like you just gotta have synergy, man,
Speaker 1: Like just make sure form follows function. That's what you
Speaker 1: gotta do. It's like the guy that had that pretended
Speaker 1: that someone Blacks rule across his his driveway, like you
Speaker 1: know what's saying that, Like it wasn't one of them,
Speaker 1: just like crips to like you crips like crip it
Speaker 1: was crips in cursive like it was like so weird,
Speaker 1: just like penmanship. Yeah, it was like just the mysterious
Speaker 1: case of the old man with the Blacks Rule. Oh man. Also,
Speaker 1: I just can't even picture somebody using spray paint to
Speaker 1: paint Biden anywhere, Like yeah, I feel like you feel
Speaker 1: like you just like go go to the Biden campaign
Speaker 1: and get like permitting to do that, like you don't
Speaker 1: have to and illicitly voice your support for Biden like
Speaker 1: that is the most Like yeah, just put a bumper
Speaker 1: sticker on your car for most of them, do that's enough.
Speaker 1: It's like the ship that you see gets ray painted
Speaker 1: it ship like a cap Okay, yeah that's not yeah,
Speaker 1: but not this ship like Biden and bl I can
Speaker 1: get it too if they just left out the anarchy symbol.
Speaker 1: You might have something because we saw in a lot
Speaker 1: of lips went full knte cloth on us, and you know,
Speaker 1: we're like, hey, I don't know what black liberation is,
Speaker 1: but I'm pretend I know what it is. He had
Speaker 1: a solid three months where they really pretended to care. Yeah, exactly,
Speaker 1: like that seems feasible almost. Then you do the anarchy
Speaker 1: and now you've created a comic book character. He didn't,
Speaker 1: as Kenny Wagen said, he didn't know when to fold
Speaker 1: he went. He put too much in, Like I think
Speaker 1: he just had too many hats. He was wearing too
Speaker 1: many hats. That was a hat on a hat, too
Speaker 1: much dip on your chips or all of those things
Speaker 1: happening once. But yeah, which is wild because this is
Speaker 1: all like as this happens, and like Republicans are constantly
Speaker 1: trying to find ways to say that we are the
Speaker 1: actual victims here they're doing ship just like this is
Speaker 1: against the backdrop right now where the party just voted
Speaker 1: like unanimously as a block. They voted against like an
Speaker 1: amendment to a bill that would have the Pentagon like
Speaker 1: analyze and proposed solutions to like ferreting out like Nazis
Speaker 1: in the military and they're all like, we're all against that.
Speaker 1: Every single Republican the House voted against that, And then
Speaker 1: like right after that, nearly all of them also voted
Speaker 1: against the House bill that would like help state and
Speaker 1: local governments create like an amber alert type system for
Speaker 1: when they're active shooter situations, just so they're like better
Speaker 1: communication between the public. Hundred and sixty eight of them
Speaker 1: were like, nah, no, we don't need Yeah, they're like, look,
Speaker 1: let's be real. The only victims that they're creating are
Speaker 1: like innocent people, innocent American people that I want nothing
Speaker 1: to do with, you know, what their policies are. But
Speaker 1: do you remember when we first launched the show and
Speaker 1: it was like Hurricane Harvey, I think had just and
Speaker 1: and there was this like Facebook group the Houston Luke
Speaker 1: Crew or something like that, like some street in Houston
Speaker 1: Looke Crew, and it was just like the most the
Speaker 1: worst creative writing by like a clearly like you know,
Speaker 1: middle aged white dude trying to write as like you know,
Speaker 1: a you know, Houston gang member. And it was it
Speaker 1: was like very embarrassing and transparent, but it was also
Speaker 1: like giving like putting down it was very dangerous, you know.
Speaker 1: It was like putting down a logic to just murder
Speaker 1: people on site when all the power and you know,
Speaker 1: everything was out in this entire city. Like that's yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just like embarrassingly uncreative excuses for fascism had yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: And it was like the same person had done that
Speaker 1: in a previous hurricane and like similarity in Sandy. Like
Speaker 1: it's just it's just stroke that occurs, which is white
Speaker 1: people pretending to be black people and just tiling on
Speaker 1: themselves in like four dimensions. Truly. Yeah, this this feels
Speaker 1: like a you know, shorter version, less weirdy version of
Speaker 1: that failure at it. And I think it speaks to how,
Speaker 1: you know, white people believe the judicial system will move
Speaker 1: against like black people. Like it's like I need to
Speaker 1: just do this thing like graffiti and vandalism and then
Speaker 1: put like these align it with these buzzwords that will
Speaker 1: code it as being black and then like and then
Speaker 1: everyone's going to be like, yeah, I know that's right,
Speaker 1: you know where to go. We found this at the
Speaker 1: scene officer they say it's eat. I don't know, but
Speaker 1: they wouldn't know how that. I mean, he's like, I
Speaker 1: know they're saying it gas, but I checked my tank
Speaker 1: and it's full. So they didn't. They didn't siphon the gas.
Speaker 1: I don't know what they mean though, all right, let's
Speaker 1: take a quick break. We'll be right back. And we're back.
Speaker 1: And so this is something that people apparently knew about.
Speaker 1: I might have known about it, but like I just
Speaker 1: I think it's just hitting my brain different now that
Speaker 1: there's been the Uvoli Day mass shooting. They are selling
Speaker 1: something called a JR fifteen that is an A R
Speaker 1: fifteen for kids like JR. Like JR. It's like the
Speaker 1: the ad JR fifteen. Get him one like yours, smaller, safer, lighter,
Speaker 1: the barrel like is silver like it makes it look
Speaker 1: more fun. And then there's like little cartoon drawings of
Speaker 1: like a skull with a passive. Are it truly? It
Speaker 1: looks like bad satire and it is real. It's real.
Speaker 1: Like I almost got mad at our writer jam. I
Speaker 1: was like, dude, you felt for fake satire. And it's like,
Speaker 1: this is gun. This is what gun magazines are. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean the logo itself, like you know again, this isn't.
Speaker 1: These aren't built with actual children in mind. These are
Speaker 1: built to appeal to parents who don't give a fuck
Speaker 1: and want to like upset everybody by buying it because
Speaker 1: like do some like market research. Let me tell you,
Speaker 1: some kids don't want to be seen as fucking babies. Okay,
Speaker 1: I even remember that ship. The last thing I wanted
Speaker 1: to be aligned with was baby culture. And so like
Speaker 1: this like skull and crossbones of like pacifier with pigtails
Speaker 1: like skull and then like even like the one that
Speaker 1: I guess is male has like a fucking mohawk and
Speaker 1: like a missing eye that's like a crosshair. I'm just
Speaker 1: targets for that. This is wild. Yeah, this should is
Speaker 1: like I'm like, that's that's not four kids. But again,
Speaker 1: none of it is because I don't think many kids
Speaker 1: are being like dad. When do I get my assault
Speaker 1: rifle for baby? Yeah? Press release for the gun claims
Speaker 1: this smaller than a regular Air fifteen and has added
Speaker 1: safety measures, but it's still operates just like mom and
Speaker 1: Dad's gun, and like so that this product was launched
Speaker 1: back in January at a gun show immediately sparked criticism, obviously,
Speaker 1: but it's being sold. It's being marketed in a magazine
Speaker 1: called Junior Shooters, and this is like we we have
Speaker 1: a one of the covers in the dock here that
Speaker 1: I don't know if you can see it, but it's
Speaker 1: got a like six year old girl with a gun
Speaker 1: on her belt, just like smiling. And Junior's stand up
Speaker 1: for gun rights is like the one of the headlines
Speaker 1: Forward Movement, like it's all about getting guns and kids
Speaker 1: hands Jack, I get it, like you're I can see why.
Speaker 1: This is like fake satire made from like you know,
Speaker 1: hard drive or whatever one of those like aggregates right inside.
Speaker 1: This is crazy. It looks sort of looks like ship
Speaker 1: doesn't look good, just a giant red backs shot showteen
Speaker 1: Like what what do you What's wild? Is you go
Speaker 1: to their website right now and it says the first
Speaker 1: thing when you go to their website, it says, due
Speaker 1: to California Bill a p. Two five seven one, Junior
Speaker 1: Shooters is no longer available to juniors under eighteen from
Speaker 1: the state of California. If you are a minor in California,
Speaker 1: please do not continue otherwise, welcome to Junior Shooters. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the Newsome bill actually, like so the existence of this
Speaker 1: gun caused Newsome to pass some legislation prohibiting marketing of firearms.
Speaker 1: Two miners. Yeah, I mean, good call, because this is
Speaker 1: this stuff is just how is that only popular in California?
Speaker 1: Seems like it should be pretty popular anywhere, man, give
Speaker 1: I mean you look at the this even the website
Speaker 1: and the content of the magazine. It's like there's like
Speaker 1: a kid on the cover, and then you open it
Speaker 1: up and it's a bunch of like boomers and like
Speaker 1: gen X militia people who are like, yeah, kids, check
Speaker 1: out the ghost Holster, Like what the fuck? But again,
Speaker 1: you know it's not it's not really four kids, just propagandia.
Speaker 1: You're trying to normalize the ship to them. There's an
Speaker 1: ad make Debt Jealous. For less than three hundred dollars,
Speaker 1: you can own an authentic one nine eleven reproduction in
Speaker 1: twenty two l R and spend the day of shooting
Speaker 1: and improving your skills without emptying dad's wallet. I like
Speaker 1: that the idea that this little girl is going to
Speaker 1: buy a nineteen eleven with her like paper route money,
Speaker 1: Like she's readcast her parents to give her money for this. Yeah.
Speaker 1: She the little girl looks to be about all of
Speaker 1: seven years old in the ad, and she's holding up
Speaker 1: a target where she like yeah, I know, so very
Speaker 1: impressive actually, but yeah, this isn't the first time gun
Speaker 1: manufacturers have tried to make guns specifically for kids. But
Speaker 1: this is like more aggressively targeting kids with a product
Speaker 1: that's explicitly a starter a R fifteen. I don't know,
Speaker 1: like people, I guess people knew this existed. I just
Speaker 1: I can't like the fact that it's not the first
Speaker 1: time gun makers have been marketing guns for kids. I
Speaker 1: put under the category of like not helping their argument,
Speaker 1: like as much as they think it might be, Like
Speaker 1: this feels like this feels like what gun control advocates
Speaker 1: should be focusing on is like not that gun control
Speaker 1: is about putting locks on guns so kids don't get
Speaker 1: at them, Like they're not. They're trying to get kids
Speaker 1: to get at guns. They're trying to put guns in
Speaker 1: kids hands to make your dad jealous with guns that
Speaker 1: you can't buy. It very much has the same energy
Speaker 1: as like the old like when stones were like you know,
Speaker 1: he would just like Marlboro went through. It feels so good,
Speaker 1: wellma like velment, Like this's very much the energy that
Speaker 1: this has. Yeah, we need to be floying all gun companies,
Speaker 1: like internal records. Just anonymous needs to be hacking the
Speaker 1: ship out of them so we see like how they talk,
Speaker 1: like look at how I want to know how they
Speaker 1: talk about mass shootings and the deaths of children as
Speaker 1: a result of their weapons, Like we've seen some but
Speaker 1: like we like that needs to be a national campaign.
Speaker 1: It's I'm part of me just feels like I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: because like I remember seeing like the first time I
Speaker 1: saw like multi colored tiny guns for kids, like yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's true. Yeah, I'm thinking back to like remember they
Speaker 1: would have like pink pink long rifles for like little
Speaker 1: girls and stuff, and like yeah, exactly girls first or
Speaker 1: daddy's first gun or whatever that you give to his kid,
Speaker 1: get your first m nineteen eleven. Hey, it's not a
Speaker 1: forty five like dad's. It's your little hand can handle it,
Speaker 1: like you can move up from squirrels, right, But yeah,
Speaker 1: I think just honestly, and then just shows like this
Speaker 1: whole like the way they're even just trying to get
Speaker 1: at like these kids, just like the gun brained parents
Speaker 1: who just feel like, oh, yeah, this is a cute
Speaker 1: thing my kid likes. Because I was saying I don't
Speaker 1: think this was even on Mike when I was talking
Speaker 1: about it. But like, you know, I grew up with
Speaker 1: a lot of kids whose parents were like big into guns,
Speaker 1: Like they grew up getting guns for their birthdays. So
Speaker 1: many of my friends like that, they are the last
Speaker 1: thing they want to do is interact with guns, like
Speaker 1: even though they were raised in it. They're like, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: that ship just it's a little too like grim now
Speaker 1: and like and I'm like, what about you can't take
Speaker 1: your kids shooting or anything like that, and they're like nah,
Speaker 1: Like it's just just it just feels too dark these days,
Speaker 1: like to be handling guns like around kids and ship.
Speaker 1: It just doesn't not adding up in my brain. So
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows how these these kids end up
Speaker 1: as h little socialist rifle association with that. So that
Speaker 1: was in Cow just a lot of like kids getting
Speaker 1: guns for I mean, I don't kids. I mean, because
Speaker 1: you don't have a lot of transplant kids like I like,
Speaker 1: I have family like friends who's like parents are like
Speaker 1: you know, like in law enforcement or firefighting and stuff
Speaker 1: like that, or like parents like their parents were veterans
Speaker 1: and stuff like Vietnam veterans and things like that. So
Speaker 1: it was just a little bit like and then growing
Speaker 1: up like in Georgia anam vet and then you know,
Speaker 1: you just take that culture with you to California. I
Speaker 1: like most of the stuff. I'm from North Comata further
Speaker 1: who are keeping up? Most of it was for hunting.
Speaker 1: For around us, it was like, oh I got I
Speaker 1: got barely his first hunting raffle. We can start small
Speaker 1: with the squirrel and then move up to deer whenever
Speaker 1: hunting things comes around, right, Yeah, I think in California
Speaker 1: was like here's your glocks, like yeah, exactly, don't get
Speaker 1: caught lacking out there, like you know, let him know
Speaker 1: you with the ship's Like okay, well, speaking of being
Speaker 1: caught lacking, let's talk about Starbucks just checking stand, did
Speaker 1: that really did not have that thing on them? That
Speaker 1: did not? Yeah, they sucked around with the chicken sandwich
Speaker 1: wars and found out in a in a very big way.
Speaker 1: I did any First of all, did anybody know that
Speaker 1: Starbucks had no? I would say that's how that's how
Speaker 1: you know the war was like there wasn't even a
Speaker 1: war because I didn't even know they. I just I'm
Speaker 1: just founding out right now. I can't imagine they put
Speaker 1: a knife to a gunfight. Yea, so to speak. All right,
Speaker 1: so this is the chicken maple butter. Okay, so far
Speaker 1: and egg sandwich. It was like a breakfast biscuit type
Speaker 1: thing they were trying to Chicken and egg is a
Speaker 1: weird combo, isn't it. I don't know if I've never
Speaker 1: had that combo. In Japan, we have a we have
Speaker 1: a name for it called oil oi don't, which means
Speaker 1: like parent and child when you like and chicken meat
Speaker 1: in a rice bul Yeah, maybe that's what it is.
Speaker 1: It's just there's something about it. For me. It's just
Speaker 1: looks like, yeah too cruel, too cruel. Yeah. Well, okay,
Speaker 1: so first of all, the reason nobody found out about
Speaker 1: it is that it was like grand opening, grand closing.
Speaker 1: Within five days, the ship dropped. People started eating it,
Speaker 1: and they said they pulled it because what they called
Speaker 1: quality concerns. Now in today USA today, the way they
Speaker 1: report it was the ship tasted so bad people thought
Speaker 1: they were poisoned. This is quote unverified knit reports on
Speaker 1: social media claimed the sandwich made some people sick. The
Speaker 1: crowdsourced website I Was Poisoned dot com, which is dedicated
Speaker 1: to tracking food born illness outbreaks and credited with helping
Speaker 1: identify several outbreaks. Logged five claims the sandwich made customers
Speaker 1: feel ill, at least temporarily. Now Starbucks was like unequivocal.
Speaker 1: They're like, no, that's a bullshit. Our food is so
Speaker 1: fucked up and overcooked and overprocessed. There's no organic material
Speaker 1: that could ever cause like ever lead to bacterial growth.
Speaker 1: The way they say is that the start the sandwich
Speaker 1: was quote cooked, frozen ship then reheated for the participant
Speaker 1: for customers at the location, a process that they say
Speaker 1: could shut out food borneil in this is so I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: there you have it. You just you got like just
Speaker 1: droopy sad beheated mica chicken and chicken sandwich. It sounds
Speaker 1: like yeah, I mean, but what what did you expect
Speaker 1: they don't have. I don't think they have deep friars Starbucks.
Speaker 1: That's like step one to a fried chicken anything. But
Speaker 1: what the fund do I know, for for your money,
Speaker 1: not to cause a big thing, but for your money,
Speaker 1: what's the who's like who like top three? Who's who's
Speaker 1: who's the top three? The chicken sandwich game? Right now? Oh?
Speaker 1: I mean Popeye' is nailed on. That's like easy, you
Speaker 1: know if I if I were, because I'm a bit
Speaker 1: of a more conscious consumer. I mean, I'll have to
Speaker 1: put Chick fil A in there, but I can't really
Speaker 1: get down with giving them my money. And you know,
Speaker 1: I had the McDonald's one that wasn't bad. It doesn't
Speaker 1: It doesn't have the same crunch fact the thing that
Speaker 1: the Popeye's one has the crunch fact. You know you
Speaker 1: know who Loki has form. I mean, for my money,
Speaker 1: the best burger can no KFC. The spicy KFC chicken sandwich,
Speaker 1: I haven't tried. It's it's it's got it. It's it's
Speaker 1: I think it's tired of PA makes sense. I'm saying
Speaker 1: it's good, it's got it. I think they definitely have
Speaker 1: like the motivation. It was embarrassing for them when pop
Speaker 1: Eyes came out and was like, yeah, ours is like
Speaker 1: by far better than anything that you've ever offered. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, I gotta go get the KFC one. Alright,
Speaker 1: be right back this this episode though, But yeah, I
Speaker 1: think it's just like one of those things too, is
Speaker 1: like start like you're drunk, Starbucks, go home. We're trying
Speaker 1: to get in the chicken sandwich and like a cake pop.
Speaker 1: Maybe if i'm if I'm at a I'll eat one
Speaker 1: of those. Those are times those feel under every single
Speaker 1: time I'm like, yo, y'all did not cook this. This
Speaker 1: is filled with cake better or I remember the first
Speaker 1: time I had A'm like yo, this glue and then
Speaker 1: I was like, oh no, it's fine. And that's I'm saying.
Speaker 1: The bar is pretty fucked up for the food. They're
Speaker 1: like the souvied egg bite. That was like one of
Speaker 1: the times I had something I was like, yeah, okay, maybe,
Speaker 1: but other than that, in my mind, I would never
Speaker 1: eat subject my body to start. If they have a banana,
Speaker 1: that's that's that's his riskies. I'm going, yeah, I'll take
Speaker 1: a piece of fruit from from Starbucks. I think I
Speaker 1: don't want like maybe like a kind bar like in
Speaker 1: a wrapper, bananas are boiled, frozen, transported from a distance,
Speaker 1: dry and reanimated cursed at Hearsley. The yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: there's your problem, right, is like that there's nothing that
Speaker 1: could conceivably be food in there, really like food the
Speaker 1: way people want it, like the way that they described that.
Speaker 1: It's just like, oh so it was more of a
Speaker 1: you know, phenomenal logical problem. It was, it was how
Speaker 1: people experienced it felt so bad they got sick metaphysically.
Speaker 1: The sandwich was making people sick metaphysically on an existential level?
Speaker 1: Were it in the after point? Yeah? But no germs,
Speaker 1: so we're good there, No exactly, And now watch I'll
Speaker 1: be I'll probably I'll be outside of a Starbucks and
Speaker 1: watch somebody eat one of those and they're like, man,
Speaker 1: this ship is terrible, and I'm like, oh, I've got
Speaker 1: a tough guy over here. It's that same guy. It
Speaker 1: had to be. It had to be God. Man, what
Speaker 1: do you think he still remembers that that person? Definitely? Still? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I got stick with you. It was terrible. I apologize
Speaker 1: usually it was it was like I knew the error
Speaker 1: of my way as the second has happened, Like what
Speaker 1: you know, It's like I felt like a like a
Speaker 1: like a super villain when you like like or something. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm just like what it's like looking at my own
Speaker 1: couldn't have been me. It's in the anime went like
