Speaker 1: what's news? Are how are we doing? Are we surviving? Yeah? Surviving?
Speaker 1: Always thinking about you as things are destabilized, destabilized. I
Speaker 1: hope to remember that conversation because one of the first
Speaker 1: your first appearance, and I'll never forget that conversation, Like
Speaker 1: destabilization all around, civil cold war, That's what's happening. What's
Speaker 1: going on with you? What's new? All right? So, uh,
Speaker 1: my mother in law had two hip surgeries. I went
Speaker 1: to two funerals. Oh oh no, And I still have
Speaker 1: my Christmas tree. I am now calling it a Valentine's tree,
Speaker 1: and that's just what it is. Are you? Are you
Speaker 1: like normally someone who takes it? Like do you normally
Speaker 1: have a tree and you keep it up late? Or
Speaker 1: what's going on? What's there's the tree? Just kind of
Speaker 1: like it's an afterthought given so many things we're all
Speaker 1: going through. I'm a Gemini, a d h D. I'm
Speaker 1: not so good with time as it is. And uh,
Speaker 1: in the times where I rarely leave my house and
Speaker 1: don't see people as a live performer, I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: probably have a St. Patrick's tree. Also, it's gonna happen. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we got the single to Mayo tree. You guys are
Speaker 1: loving it. There's gonna be what Dad's and grads tree.
Speaker 1: I get it, you can. There's there's always something to
Speaker 1: celebrate you for. For folks out there who is who
Speaker 1: are as physical as I am. It turns out that
Speaker 1: so much of our sense of time, organization, memory is
Speaker 1: linked and logged by our physical memory and our ability
Speaker 1: to like gross motor move in the world spatially and
Speaker 1: in acres, not just like around the house. Got you
Speaker 1: and now and look and I'm just thinking too, could
Speaker 1: be a no use tree for the for the new year. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's actually kind of a good challenge now that I'm
Speaker 1: thinking about it. It's just to keep your tree up
Speaker 1: and sexualize it. Well, now that you say that, I'm
Speaker 1: wondering why I don't keep it and then set it
Speaker 1: on fire and jump over it and jump over it
Speaker 1: right for the new year. Oh my god, Okay, hell yeah,
Speaker 1: keep that because look now you now you can keep
Speaker 1: that thing until March. Right done? You know why else?
Speaker 1: Because it celebrates wildfire season, right, the best way to
Speaker 1: wildfire season is let a tree on fire. There you go, yeah,
Speaker 1: and then jump over it, thus symbolizing our mastery over wildfires.
Speaker 1: Is it like a good transition into mad x times
Speaker 1: to say that that's just my nod to the planet. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because we're not even trying to save the planet anymore.
Speaker 1: We just have Hey, I see you, I see you
Speaker 1: out there. I see you, baby, just on fire, just
Speaker 1: letting him know when we sees you. Let me just
Speaker 1: keep recycling and then also get the new iPhone every
Speaker 1: six months. Sorry, So we just had to do a
Speaker 1: stop down because my I was only hearing like every
Speaker 1: other word. But I think I got everything that you're
Speaker 1: an arsonisting you're planning on starting a bunch of forest
Speaker 1: fires for the new year. No. I like Arsenal and
Speaker 1: her favorite TV show is The Wire. Yeah, what's wrong
Speaker 1: with you? Jack? You get your ears checked out? Man,
Speaker 1: get that you get that ear wax out of there
Speaker 1: destabilized years. My kid came home with like a real
Speaker 1: pro ear wax take from school or like it actually
Speaker 1: keeps bugs from getting in there and it keeps you
Speaker 1: from getting sick. So I mean, yeah to a point,
Speaker 1: but you don't want to be that person who when
Speaker 1: you offer your headphone to everyone's Like I remember, yo,
Speaker 1: and I used to do a lot of digital video.
Speaker 1: I worked with an editor who would like edit on
Speaker 1: his laptop and like you know, we'd be in the field,
Speaker 1: like having to just turn cuts around and get him
Speaker 1: uploaded to make those sweet digital ad bucks for our overlords.
Speaker 1: And I remember one time he's like, yeah, man, you
Speaker 1: want to check this cut out? And he took his
Speaker 1: ear butt out and I kid you not, I don't.
Speaker 1: It was so engrossing wax almost like it was as
Speaker 1: if it were threading out of his ear when he
Speaker 1: was like and he handed it to me, And I
Speaker 1: was in this impossible situation, right and be like, man,
Speaker 1: don't give me that nasty which I should have. Yeah, see,
Speaker 1: the Japanese part of me took you know, didn't want to.
Speaker 1: Like I got very self. I got embarrassed for this person.
Speaker 1: So I said I will take on the disc comfort.
Speaker 1: But I did not put that ship in my ear.
Speaker 1: I like held it like like very far from my
Speaker 1: ear whole. Yeah, And I think he knew what was
Speaker 1: up because nobody does that. And I was like, I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna say it, but when I hand this back
Speaker 1: to you, you will see why I didn't put it
Speaker 1: in my It's like, no, they all look like that, right,
Speaker 1: they'll get that little a little like brown orange gemstone
Speaker 1: that is attached to you. Gotta swap microbiomes, folks. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And also like different different ear wax. My mom would
Speaker 1: always be like, you have American people ear wax? What
Speaker 1: does that mean? What does that mean? She's saying the
Speaker 1: texture is different, is more waxy. She's like like love
Speaker 1: wetter ear wax. Yeah yeah yeah, And she was like,
Speaker 1: you know, like it's not like Japanese like Asian ear wax.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, here we go. Here, my my boys
Speaker 1: have the drivers lake here in Japanese wax. See and
Speaker 1: I got and I got goop. Yeah yeah, tastes like
Speaker 1: high fruit toast corn syrup. Oh yeah, of course I'm American.
Speaker 1: All of my excretions tastes like hy have you ever
Speaker 1: tasted the thing in a box of ramen, like the
Speaker 1: liquid e thing the packet. You just don't drink that.
Speaker 1: That's what my MG just straight up, I mean it's
Speaker 1: it's flavor town. But yeah, blood pressure. Yeah, just look
Speaker 1: all of the liquid and your body just immediately done
Speaker 1: for my body. Just for the record, h alright, well, okay,
Speaker 1: fair enough, you know, alright, So we're gonna get to
Speaker 1: know you a little bit better in a moment. First,
Speaker 1: we can tell our listeners a couple of things we're
Speaker 1: talking about. We are talking about the fact that Biden
Speaker 1: called Steve Doocey a stupid son of a bitch. Best
Speaker 1: thing he's done as a president far as I can tell.
Speaker 1: So we'll talk about that, whether whether that legitimized his presidency,
Speaker 1: whether this new is to be his new m O.
Speaker 1: Moving forward, we're gonna talk about Laura Ingram's impression of
Speaker 1: Kate McKinnon's impression of Laura Ingram. We're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: Elon Musk's neuralalink. But we might even talk about Rudy
Speaker 1: Giuliani's autographed nine eleven commemorative T shirt for sale for
Speaker 1: the low low price of nine and eleven dollars legit,
Speaker 1: like straight up, that's a real thing. All of that
Speaker 1: plenty more. But first, are we do like to ask
Speaker 1: our guests, what is something from your search history? All right?
Speaker 1: In my search history is how to shoot a dick?
Speaker 1: How to shoot how to shoot a dick? Okay, you
Speaker 1: shoot a dick? Off? Like so okay, apparently sprint pill
Speaker 1: off a dick? What are we talking here from? William
Speaker 1: Tell type stuff off? All right? Just blow blow that one.
Speaker 1: You would think there'd be more? How two? And I
Speaker 1: was looking it up for a friend's like I'm in
Speaker 1: a writer's group and what I was looking it up
Speaker 1: for their scripts? And then I came across the whole
Speaker 1: Facebook group. Mhmm about shooting your dick off? What? Yeah?
Speaker 1: What is the confusion? I think it's pretty straightforward of
Speaker 1: and this is just you know, me being a guy
Speaker 1: thinking I know everything, but I'm have a pretty clear
Speaker 1: idea of how to shoot my dick? Are you? Is
Speaker 1: that more like how does someone shoot their own dick off?
Speaker 1: Or you're saying how do I I'm interested in the
Speaker 1: act of shooting someone's dick off? How do I do that?
Speaker 1: More like? In all the ways that there is to
Speaker 1: shoot at your dick, right, there are good ones and
Speaker 1: bad ones. So we're talking about self owning with your
Speaker 1: with a firearm, yes, okay, got it. And you're saying
Speaker 1: you found a Facebook group of people who had blown
Speaker 1: away their fouces with firearms. No, just a group of
Speaker 1: people who were intrigued by the idea of shooting their dick.
Speaker 1: And the guy who started it accidentally shot his own
Speaker 1: dick while doing a demonstration and that brought the group
Speaker 1: together even closer while doing a demonstration for the group.
Speaker 1: We're just talking about it, But Brett lives this stuff, man,
Speaker 1: Damn he's talking to talk man and walking it. Like
Speaker 1: I would assume that how not to shoot a dick
Speaker 1: or how not to shoot your dick off would be
Speaker 1: the more popular search term, but we all it's interesting tons,
Speaker 1: you know. Then again, the easiest way to not shoot
Speaker 1: your dick is to not shoot your dick, not being
Speaker 1: stupid with firearms at all. The gun bear, I feel
Speaker 1: like there's so many videos like that were like their
Speaker 1: cops doing like demonstrations with their firearms and just hit it,
Speaker 1: like thying themselves is constantly trying to like holster their
Speaker 1: weapon or whatever, and You're like, what the fuck you
Speaker 1: shot yourself in a classroom? Like, what the funk is?
Speaker 1: This would be a huge problem with cops head bigger dicks. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: I'm here all week bub in the morning. What's new, folks, Well,
Speaker 1: that's cool. I can't wait to read or see that movie,
Speaker 1: the whatever they're writing writing about. Who did that robot
Speaker 1: Cop edit where the Summer of Tears? Have you seen that? Zara? No, okay,
Speaker 1: I don't know if you if you're familiar with robot Coop,
Speaker 1: but someone gets d shot in there, but there's a
Speaker 1: cut word yeah, where they extend that out and it
Speaker 1: becomes like a carnival of people getting shot in the penis.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's amazing, and it's just and it
Speaker 1: goes for so long. You can't believe someone bothered to
Speaker 1: like fund this production because it's it's done very cinematically.
Speaker 1: I'm going to share that with my friends in this group. Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, they would love it. Yeah. So it was
Speaker 1: a like a thing where people, like different sketch comedy
Speaker 1: groups did a shop for shot remake, Like everybody got
Speaker 1: a different scene to do a shopper shot remake of
Speaker 1: RoboCop and the person who was in charge of the
Speaker 1: dick shooting scene just had robotops shooting so many dicks
Speaker 1: off by fatal farm. Fatal farm. They're the best. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's right, and I haven't thought of them. Man. I
Speaker 1: thought about those guys in a minute. Also really really good.
Speaker 1: What is something you think is overrated? Sar? I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say getting rid of your Christmas tree? Folks have made
Speaker 1: the case. Hold on, do you have a real one? Yes,
Speaker 1: I have a real one. I keep it and I
Speaker 1: am keeping it until Tim Cook stops. Wow it stops?
Speaker 1: What putting out more iPhones? Yes, this one has four
Speaker 1: cameras on the back. Now you see I need that
Speaker 1: four one my bad, the one that sees into my
Speaker 1: ear wax. I forgot I needed it. Yeah, this um
Speaker 1: the tree thing, I definitely I When I used to have,
Speaker 1: like an old tree or a real tree, I would
Speaker 1: keep it up. Man, there are times I had that
Speaker 1: shut up until like mid February. Okay, as a Muslim kid,
Speaker 1: how do you even get rid of it? Chop it up,
Speaker 1: you break it up, put it outside? Yeah you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: just get rid of it. But I mean also to
Speaker 1: like in l a you can at a certain point,
Speaker 1: people just like put them on the curb. And then
Speaker 1: if you're outside of the normal like Christmas pickup or
Speaker 1: you know, week span when most people are putting it,
Speaker 1: you can always three one on it. Yeah. But when
Speaker 1: I was a kid, that's when I would score it
Speaker 1: right right, like run out and be like, we can
Speaker 1: get a Christmas tree now, mom, come on, let's go.
Speaker 1: Who knows how much it costs? No, they're free, you
Speaker 1: can just take it. I don't know. It's always a
Speaker 1: little water log, which gets rid of the main problem
Speaker 1: with Christmas trees, which is that they dry out and
Speaker 1: cause fire. So there you go, garbage juice in there,
Speaker 1: hopefully not kerosene. Did you. I've mentioned this before, I
Speaker 1: think on the show, But you've never seen somebody set
Speaker 1: a car on fire by putting a Christmas tree underneath
Speaker 1: it and then setting the tree on fire. All right,
Speaker 1: never mind put that a little script. Put that your
Speaker 1: little skit when you put that in your little humor magazine.
Speaker 1: I remember I saw that in I was at a
Speaker 1: party like in Santa Barbara, UCSB on in I La Vista,
Speaker 1: and people did that ship and I was like, the
Speaker 1: fuck is going on here? Like they literally just torch
Speaker 1: that car with a tree. Was it a like celebration
Speaker 1: of something or that was just like how hard? The
Speaker 1: party was just wildt some going down. Maybe they were cold,
Speaker 1: yeah right, I thought you were like maybe they were cool, Jack,
Speaker 1: I never thought about that. Maybe they're just cook Yeah. Man,
Speaker 1: Felonious Arson with us. What is something you think is underrated?
Speaker 1: Mental health? I'm doing great, guys, Go okay, I'll bite.
Speaker 1: What is this mental health stuff? You got me? You know,
Speaker 1: sometimes you're sad, you know, and it's compounded for the planet,
Speaker 1: for the people, for your friends that are passing, for
Speaker 1: you know, humanity at large, and then also just existential
Speaker 1: wondering why you're a comedian if you can't go perform
Speaker 1: without making people sick, right, and then you just bottle
Speaker 1: it up and you shove a Christmas tree under a
Speaker 1: car and you like maybe and you've got meaning now, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's how it works. How are you, I mean, how
Speaker 1: are you taking care? I mean? Because I mean I
Speaker 1: know you're you're very on top of things like mental health,
Speaker 1: and you you like to share, you know, ways to
Speaker 1: be more positive and things like that. How do you
Speaker 1: and I know you're able to articulate the angst and
Speaker 1: the emotional experience that you're having. But how do you
Speaker 1: I mean, I get that, sure we all got to
Speaker 1: burn a car up with a Christmas tree, but what
Speaker 1: would you do? Which I was right about by the
Speaker 1: way you are, man, you know it in all seriousness,
Speaker 1: it's really hard. I cry spontaneously. M h. I feel
Speaker 1: totally numb, and then sometimes I am overwhelmed with my
Speaker 1: own feelings. And I've had such a hard time getting
Speaker 1: out of it after the passing of one of my
Speaker 1: childhood friends that I had to ask different friends to
Speaker 1: call me at different times to make sure that I
Speaker 1: got out of bed, you know, come like one o'clock,
Speaker 1: two o'clock. Yeah, it's it's just a hard, hardass time.
Speaker 1: And I think the thing that's gotten me through it
Speaker 1: the most is that I'm in the arts and I
Speaker 1: and I can talk about it freely like this with
Speaker 1: you here, and I and I have room for that
Speaker 1: to exist side by side with everything else that I do,
Speaker 1: and I can kind of move through it and and
Speaker 1: it can mean as much as I'm as I needed
Speaker 1: to mean, you know what I mean. Yeah, that's so important,
Speaker 1: especially when you lose people like you come up with,
Speaker 1: because it's it's to create such a hole inside of
Speaker 1: you and like, you know, you we always envisioned like
Speaker 1: how our lives will be, especially when two you grow up,
Speaker 1: like yeah, man, we're gonna see this, this, that and
Speaker 1: the other. And when things are cut short. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: it's definitely trying. And yeah, I like even you know,
Speaker 1: there's there's been all kinds of loss that I experience
Speaker 1: doing the last year and and just all many trials
Speaker 1: and tribulations. But the thing that I try to, you know,
Speaker 1: do at least for myself, is to be able to
Speaker 1: express whatever that it is I'm feeling, because before that
Speaker 1: I probably wouldn't. I would just try and ignore it
Speaker 1: or say I'm fine, and then it would like manifest
Speaker 1: into me like getting like catastrophically drunk and embarrassing myself
Speaker 1: or you know, completely fucking up some other thing that's
Speaker 1: like disconnected. So it's important yet to get your feelings
Speaker 1: on and ship. Sometimes I just find myself too, I'm
Speaker 1: I'll get so emotional. I'll watch like one like one
Speaker 1: funny clip and I'm like it's so beautiful, man, Like
Speaker 1: the way the Supernize the back flips with these and
Speaker 1: I'm like out, oh, man, were blown off? You know
Speaker 1: what is the movie that is so good for grief?
Speaker 1: Talk about underrated Jaws. Yeah, for grief it is great
Speaker 1: because there's like the ocean in you know, and then
Speaker 1: like in the middle of the movie, like Robert Shaw's character,
Speaker 1: I feel like just like embodies so like I'm showing
Speaker 1: up down, shut up and let me alone. Fine, but
Speaker 1: it comes up at the end there's I know, and
Speaker 1: then you watch the monster just like eating them in half,
Speaker 1: and it's like, yeah, yeah, I'm working through the fact
Speaker 1: that like I don't know what I'm feeling a lot
Speaker 1: of the time because of like I think I think
Speaker 1: I like pin a lot of it on toxic masculinity
Speaker 1: and the fact that like when I'm feeling something, it
Speaker 1: just like gets either like pushed down or like turned
Speaker 1: into anger. But I think that's like generally, like especially
Speaker 1: like today in the modern Western world, where it's just
Speaker 1: like you gotta move on, you gotta get through, get moving,
Speaker 1: to get moving, while we're all like living through a
Speaker 1: fucking global pandemic where like our loved ones are dying.
Speaker 1: Like it's yeah, it's not it's not just toxic masculinity.
Speaker 1: It's toxic Western you know, toxicity period. Yeah, when really
Speaker 1: like it should be. Yeah, I feel like shit, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm like I feel like crying. Then you fucking do that.
Speaker 1: Get your ship out, like you know, like it's the
Speaker 1: worst ship is to ignore what you're going through and
Speaker 1: what you're experiencing, because then you're unable to actually address
Speaker 1: your needs because you're just going to kind of be
Speaker 1: like working with this skewed perspective of what you're going through.
Speaker 1: How rad would it be if it flipped and people
Speaker 1: like it was like toxic you're crying? Bro, Hey man,
Speaker 1: this motherfucker' not crying? Man, where's your tears? Oh? Wow,
Speaker 1: look at you not crying like a little bit. All right,
Speaker 1: on that note, let's make a quick we will be
Speaker 1: right back, and we're back. And so Joe Biden was
Speaker 1: on Mike. Did not seem like people keep referring to
Speaker 1: it as like him being caught on a hot Mike,
Speaker 1: like calling somebody a son of a bit. He was
Speaker 1: standing at a podium speaking into a microphone and just
Speaker 1: saying it like he wasn't caught on a hot He
Speaker 1: said that ship. He just said that ship out like
Speaker 1: like he didn't give a funk. That's the media trying
Speaker 1: to be like he didn't mean that. It's like, bro,
Speaker 1: he like, I don't know. Yeah, it was a very
Speaker 1: interesting moment. You know, we live in a we live
Speaker 1: in an environment where fuck Joe Biden or let's go
Speaker 1: Brandon is very commonplace. You know, we hear this, This
Speaker 1: is how people are are articulating their distaste for the president.
Speaker 1: Do we do the like origin of let's go Brandon? Like,
Speaker 1: was this from the Nascar? Is from Nascar? Yeah? Did
Speaker 1: we talk about that on on this show? I know,
Speaker 1: I think we touched on it maybe in a trending episode,
Speaker 1: but you know, essentially at a NASCAR race they were
Speaker 1: saying fun Joe Biden, and like it's not like they're
Speaker 1: saying let's go Brandon, Like they're not brand no better.
Speaker 1: Just let let's let it cook. You know, you know
Speaker 1: where we're at it one. This is the u s
Speaker 1: of a UM And you know, I think those little
Speaker 1: sort of outbursts have been the little blankie that keep
Speaker 1: conservatives warm at night as they shiver in the cold
Speaker 1: reality of Donald Trump not being the actual president. So
Speaker 1: you know, get your get your jollys off. But on Monday,
Speaker 1: when Joe Biden called Peter Doocy a stupid s ob
Speaker 1: like he was a Gabbo from the Simpsons. He you
Speaker 1: thought the fucking heavens came down based on the conservative reactions,
Speaker 1: and I will play let me just we'll play it
Speaker 1: so everyone can hear what was going on. He was
Speaker 1: being asked, you know what about inflation, blah blah, and
Speaker 1: Joe Biden just like the press conference was over at
Speaker 1: this point and journalists were still trying to get one
Speaker 1: last question. Peter Doocy asked about inflation. Do you think inflation?
Speaker 1: More inflation? What a stupid song of it? Wait, so
Speaker 1: this was what why is he calling him a Because
Speaker 1: Josey's out here, he's asking, he's saying, do you think inflation?
Speaker 1: He's just trying to get him like sort of bring
Speaker 1: up the idea of inflation. How that is like a
Speaker 1: that's gonna tank any kind of mid term momentum because
Speaker 1: of inflation, you know, like because that's that's a huge
Speaker 1: more inflation. Yeah, that they're right. You know, the conservative
Speaker 1: media is like all this inflation because of Joe Biden,
Speaker 1: Like that's the narrative that they want to keep moving
Speaker 1: along um so I think with him asking that to
Speaker 1: be like, are you like this non thing? Are you
Speaker 1: scared of it? He's like what stupid? Just like he's like,
Speaker 1: I'm off this saying it to the other people in
Speaker 1: the room. It was like yeah, it was like he
Speaker 1: he kind of I don't know, whatever it was. The
Speaker 1: right wing media has lost it. You're seeing all kinds
Speaker 1: of takes things of like quote, this is how he
Speaker 1: talks about conservative when he thinks no one is looking attention. Okay,
Speaker 1: Josh Holly Mr. Sending the fucking army or know that
Speaker 1: was Tom Cotton the other one, but Josh Holly, who
Speaker 1: is also just a terrible center from his he said,
Speaker 1: very presidential. And then another person said, I don't care
Speaker 1: that Biden called Doucy a name. I do care that
Speaker 1: the president of the United States lacks but cognitive ability
Speaker 1: to know what to say into a microphone. That's kind
Speaker 1: of a big deal. Oh they want to talk about
Speaker 1: cognitive ability and a president, do they? But but here's
Speaker 1: my thing. I'm like, oh, so he is your president.
Speaker 1: Motherfucker's got your ass, because otherwise you'd be like, man
Speaker 1: see his trash old man, fake auss president. Everything should
Speaker 1: not act like this. You know, he's in the shower
Speaker 1: every day just being like I should have said fake
Speaker 1: as president, right, come on. But yeah, it's just so
Speaker 1: it kind of just struck me that I like that
Speaker 1: the people that challenge the very legitimacy of this presidency
Speaker 1: are using presidential decorum as like a barb to attack him.
Speaker 1: And you know, I don't know, I guess if we're
Speaker 1: using Trump as some kind of metric for how the
Speaker 1: president should behave, then yeah, Joe Biden his president. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So people are pulling pulling out people's responses, like responses
Speaker 1: to Trump calling someone a son of a bitch and
Speaker 1: being like, well, you didn't like it when he did it,
Speaker 1: and that's definitely true that that just kind of highlights
Speaker 1: the people whose main argument with Trump was that he
Speaker 1: was rude and not like the and the and so
Speaker 1: the worst thing people are hearing like this guy is
Speaker 1: an ethno nationalist, want to be fascist who's trying to
Speaker 1: destroy everything for everyone, And the conservative media is like
Speaker 1: he's he's so foul mouth and he doesn't know how
Speaker 1: to use a microphone, Like that's fucking bad. Everyone, Like
Speaker 1: the comparison here is is really something else and yeah,
Speaker 1: a lot of people have pointed to many of Trump's quotes,
Speaker 1: and you know, Jacob Jake Tapper was like, you know,
Speaker 1: to be honest, you shouldn't be doing that ship. And
Speaker 1: that's true. Like if we have if we're trying to
Speaker 1: have some idea of like you know, what is what
Speaker 1: what's a an even handed leader? Look like he can
Speaker 1: he knows how to keep his mouth shut. But whatever
Speaker 1: that I mean, this is this is I think he's
Speaker 1: just merely he's having commentary on the situation he finds
Speaker 1: himself as president. That's the thing too, you know. Okay,
Speaker 1: so in communications coaching, I learned that you gotta first
Speaker 1: identify your value system otherwise you're going to come into
Speaker 1: conflict at every single milestone. And that is so true
Speaker 1: because everything is such ship right now. That just hearing
Speaker 1: him say the stupid cent of it bit like just
Speaker 1: it made me feel like everything was just a little
Speaker 1: more real. I felt like a little less gas lit
Speaker 1: by this government anyway, you know, this government that's like
Speaker 1: we're canceling your student loans, just kidding you don't have
Speaker 1: to go to work, yes you do, you know, like
Speaker 1: we're we'll just change what the CDC says, now, you know,
Speaker 1: to hear him actually like have some kind of reaction
Speaker 1: to just exhaustion by stupidity was like a relief for me.
Speaker 1: But we're so pocketed in our value systems and our
Speaker 1: news media and in the values that we judge a
Speaker 1: president by, like so astronomically divided. Right, Yeah, what is
Speaker 1: the temperature right now on the mid terms? I mean,
Speaker 1: the Democrats are going to lose because I'm like, you know,
Speaker 1: my buddy Jack O'Brien, he's really smart, Like I bet
Speaker 1: you know, he's a white guy. You guys might like
Speaker 1: him over there racist as Also, Hey, what I gotta
Speaker 1: say a shout out to the Zeke Gang in Alabama.
Speaker 1: I met Alabama Zike Gang homies toory what up at
Speaker 1: the dog park? And I promised to shout out, Oh
Speaker 1: I did, yeah, And I almost said the racist ass out,
Speaker 1: and I remembered hearing from them, Hey we're listening out there, Yeah,
Speaker 1: y gang, We're internationally known, locally respected everybody. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: was not surprised that we have Zyke Gang in Alabama.
Speaker 1: I just do not like them. I'm so surprised. If
Speaker 1: you're no, I'm just love you. Yeah, But this is
Speaker 1: you know, I like you're saying, it's all part of
Speaker 1: the current climate that we're in these you know, Jen
Speaker 1: Saki has also numerous times and like, what are you
Speaker 1: talking about, Peter? What are you saying up there, sir?
Speaker 1: Like he's been a constant bringer of nonsense. But yeah,
Speaker 1: all that to say is, uh, I'd love to be
Speaker 1: president so I can say stuff like that. Is Peter
Speaker 1: Doocey related to Steve Doocey? Is it as boy? Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: I mean I will not remember which one is, which
Speaker 1: I did call him Steve Doocey up top, and that's fine,
Speaker 1: That's fine with me. I will refer to them indiscriminately. Peter,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Peter. Peter is the kid Steve's daddy. Steve
Speaker 1: is alright, yeah, Peter looks I would be shocked if
Speaker 1: it was the other way around, because that's my son,
Speaker 1: like all right, speaking of the right. Not knowing how
Speaker 1: to react to anything Laura Ingram. So there was a
Speaker 1: cold open on SNL Over the Weekend where Kate McKinnon
Speaker 1: did a Laura Ingram impression and then through to interviews
Speaker 1: with Ted Cruz and Candice Owens has played by Idil
Speaker 1: Woden and Djokovic played by Pete Davidson, and it was
Speaker 1: like it was good. Kate McKinnon's very funny, and Laura
Speaker 1: Ingram then did her impression of Kate McKinnon's impression of her,
Speaker 1: and it just like seemed like she was doing like
Speaker 1: drunk person in improv one or something. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: let's roll the tape and we can analyze it on
Speaker 1: the other side. But yes, without further ado, here is
Speaker 1: Ingram's McKinnon's. Ingram The reason I like Kate McKinnon I
Speaker 1: have so much respect for as a talent. She's so
Speaker 1: even handed in their political commentary. But seriously, think of
Speaker 1: all the low hanging fruit provided by Joe Biden and
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi little PDB in the squad at a near
Speaker 1: daily basis. I mean, I think this is kind of
Speaker 1: comedy gold, don't you know. Uh, what I'm seeing is
Speaker 1: not comedy gold. It's also funny because they are doing
Speaker 1: like picture and picture, right, So they have Kate McKinnon's
Speaker 1: impression of her over her shoulder and then she's doing
Speaker 1: the impression and Kate McKinnon like just kind of leans
Speaker 1: to one side, like Laura Ingram does like nailing her,
Speaker 1: and then Laura Ingram like adds all this like wobbling
Speaker 1: back and forth, like just it's a transparently a bad
Speaker 1: impression of an impression of a good impression. I mean
Speaker 1: one definitely one of the more meta comedy performances we've
Speaker 1: seen on broadcast television, for sure, But she's a fucking
Speaker 1: odd one. Ingram aside from the obvious reasons, is that
Speaker 1: really how she sounds like? She was she doing like
Speaker 1: a impression of herself. Okay, she was doing an impression
Speaker 1: of Kate McKinnon's impression of her and it didn't sound
Speaker 1: to anything. She just like added a whole bunch of
Speaker 1: like drunk lady and like yeah, weird like dizzy cartoon,
Speaker 1: dizzy person, all the all the love hanging fruit and
Speaker 1: do you see Like but this she just has like
Speaker 1: a weird pension for like doing these bits. Like remember
Speaker 1: when she was doing the U thing and I legit
Speaker 1: it was so dry. I was like, is she is
Speaker 1: she serious? Or is this because she's like on what show? You?
Speaker 1: It was on you and it's like me, I said
Speaker 1: something about vaccines, no you and my show and it
Speaker 1: was like this who's on first thing, where Jack very
Speaker 1: quickly is like, this is a bit and I'm like,
Speaker 1: she's so bad at this. I don't know what she's
Speaker 1: doing ever, like art and parcel of her Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: it's a written bit that they were like, so, Laura,
Speaker 1: we think we have a new angle for you, like
Speaker 1: you're the funny one on Fox and like people people
Speaker 1: think you're a real cut up and they think you're funny,
Speaker 1: so let's go with that. And then Canada's Owens said
Speaker 1: she's funnier and prettier than Ego wont which like even
Speaker 1: her supporters I don't like. I looked at the comments
Speaker 1: underneath and it was funny because all her supporters were like,
Speaker 1: went with the same s and l still on the air.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen that in twenty five years joke, and
Speaker 1: that nobody was like, yeah, that's right, you are prettier
Speaker 1: and funnier than this very talented comedic performer. Yeah, is
Speaker 1: are all these people just failed improvisers and stand ups?
Speaker 1: Is that really? Like you know, like, did Laura Ingram
Speaker 1: try to be in the groundlings like in the early
Speaker 1: nineties or something and they're like, sorry, Laura, like you
Speaker 1: can't keep doing your like these character bits, they're really offensive.
Speaker 1: She's like, what I mean, that's either that or Toastmasters. Right, wait,
Speaker 1: what is Toastmasters? I just left. Toast Masters is a
Speaker 1: another like nationwide probe speakers program to boost your confidence
Speaker 1: and give you sort of like hacks on speaking, and
Speaker 1: they also have like competitions. Got it. Okay, so it's
Speaker 1: like it's like your daughter's wedding or whatever. It's like
Speaker 1: the speech and debate to improv type. Yeah. So she
Speaker 1: never got out of Toastmasters. Huh. I think she got
Speaker 1: kicked out probably like that was a comedic performance that
Speaker 1: would have made like that sometimes you'll see somebody like
Speaker 1: on Fox do something that you're like that would have
Speaker 1: brought down the house at like a Midwestern wedding. I
Speaker 1: feel like from Laura Ingram would have made everybody very
Speaker 1: fucking uncomfortable. Everybody would have been which I just want
Speaker 1: her to stop. That was like she had like the
Speaker 1: comedic timing of like a youth pastor. Yeah. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: it's like I get I mean, I get that you're
Speaker 1: committing and you'll be like, look, I'm comfortable doing this,
Speaker 1: but it's an l media. I'm sorry Kelly and Conway
Speaker 1: was a stand up comic. Oh that's right, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: one of the great. All right, let's take a quick
Speaker 1: break and we'll be right back. And we're back, and
Speaker 1: our writer j M out there doing the hard research
Speaker 1: so we don't have to discoverage that Rudy Giuliani was
Speaker 1: selling is still selling as of this recording, autographed nine
Speaker 1: eleven themed t shirts for nine and eleven dollars, which
Speaker 1: is both offensive and just an increa edible rip off, Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you could buy nine hundred and eleven copies of the
Speaker 1: book But Loving Unicorn on Amazon for that much, which
Speaker 1: is actually how I just make all my purchases. Is
Speaker 1: kind of equating it back to but Loving Unicorns, an
Speaker 1: amateur novel about the erotic tension between a handsome unicorn
Speaker 1: named Sullivan Horsepower and a Studley Veloci raptor named Raptor McCoy.
Speaker 1: Oh this is sexy. Yeah, it's pretty hot. Yeah, actually,
Speaker 1: let's get I'd rather I honestly, I'm more interested in
Speaker 1: what was the guy Studley McCoy Raptor McCoy and Sullivan Horsepower.
Speaker 1: Horse Power is a great name like that, like they
Speaker 1: took that off the discard pile at Pixar for cars
Speaker 1: for like, that's pretty fucking good. President. Yeah, so Sullivan horsepower. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm fine, What's I get it. Rudy is so broke.
Speaker 1: He has to come completely tarnished the memory of people
Speaker 1: who lost their lives to get his lawyer fees together. Yeah.
Speaker 1: It was interesting because he like straight up denied the
Speaker 1: story like people that he didn't do it. He was
Speaker 1: like some people were like, hey, this seems like it's
Speaker 1: in really poor days, and he tweeted, I am not
Speaker 1: selling nine eleven shirts. He said on Twitter, I'm not
Speaker 1: selling nine eleven shirts again, and people pointed out that
Speaker 1: as he was tweeting that. And still at this moment,
Speaker 1: I believe the linke is still up. You can still
Speaker 1: buy a collectible autographed by Rudy Giuliani nine eleven twentieth
Speaker 1: anniversary T shirt limited quantity blue for nine eleven dollars
Speaker 1: on the w ABC Radio store. So it's not like
Speaker 1: it's just some you know, this is on w ABC
Speaker 1: the radio, like ABC's radio station, which he hosts his
Speaker 1: show on, like they're the our website is making this
Speaker 1: limited time offer, probably very limited, like by the time
Speaker 1: this episode post that will have been taken down, but
Speaker 1: is it still there if we go look, just go
Speaker 1: really quickly. W mhm mhmm, yeah baby, just to get
Speaker 1: it in now, folks, why you can never forget they
Speaker 1: only have XL and double XL. So yeah, it's got
Speaker 1: Rudy George W. Bush and who is that Bloomberg Guy's
Speaker 1: way too tall to be Bloomberg who some some some
Speaker 1: non factor. But yeah, what what does he have on
Speaker 1: this radio station where they're like, yeah, man, we'll we'll,
Speaker 1: we'll buy in on this, we'll we'll let you completely
Speaker 1: bring us down with you. Like I can only imagine
Speaker 1: what that conversation is, like, hey man, can I sell
Speaker 1: these on the website? Please? Oh yeah, this was something
Speaker 1: that not only had to be his idea, but he
Speaker 1: had to fight for to out on. Like yeah, but yeah,
Speaker 1: as Myles pointed out, he's pretty much broke after spending
Speaker 1: millions and legal fees, right yeah, because yeah, this has
Speaker 1: been part of the many sort of acts of financial
Speaker 1: desperation we've seen from him. Cameo was probably one of
Speaker 1: my favorites. Like that's when I was like, oh it's
Speaker 1: Cameo bad Okay, But now I guess we're saying, Oh,
Speaker 1: it's we're selling autographed nine eleven T shirts for nine
Speaker 1: eleven bad. Yeah, he tried to so. He also launched
Speaker 1: a crowdfunding campaign for the quote Rudy Giuliani Legal Defense
Speaker 1: Fund with a five million dollar goal, and it raised
Speaker 1: ten grand before it got taken down. Oh man, that
Speaker 1: man is a mess. He also launched a YouTube channel
Speaker 1: where he will teach you gender studies. For some reason,
Speaker 1: Juliani's gonna teach me jet their studies. Yeah, the guy
Speaker 1: who was smearing his peep in the boat movie is
Speaker 1: gonna is gonna be okay? And also doing commercials on
Speaker 1: his YouTube channel for cigars and gold coins. Yeah, is that?
Speaker 1: Do you think that most of this money is just
Speaker 1: like folks wanting to see a train wreck. I don't
Speaker 1: think there's much money, to be honest. Like, That's what
Speaker 1: I'm surprised, is like, because you would have expected like
Speaker 1: that is a lot of him, like having the president's
Speaker 1: back on Maine for like a very popular president, a
Speaker 1: president who I don't know if you heard, got more
Speaker 1: votes than any sitting president in the history of America.
Speaker 1: But there's got a lot of fans Donald Trump and
Speaker 1: Rudy was like the face of his you know, attempt
Speaker 1: to coup the nation in the courts, and everybody's just like, nah,
Speaker 1: funk that guy, like get away, which is pretty remarkable,
Speaker 1: I mean because Trump like threw him under the bus us.
Speaker 1: But you know, that is just what Donald Trump does.
Speaker 1: But it's pretty wild that he just has just been
Speaker 1: relegated to the realms of like, no funk that guy
Speaker 1: by every every single side at this point, right especially
Speaker 1: too when because it's all what they do is they
Speaker 1: gotta griff, they gotta be like, hey, you want my
Speaker 1: attention or you want to be part of my club
Speaker 1: where you can buy this thing, and then it'll never
Speaker 1: be the the product that they promise it is, because
Speaker 1: like you look at his cameo reviews. I just love
Speaker 1: how these people are so angry that like the already
Speaker 1: was huge amounts of money, like over three hundred bucks
Speaker 1: for him to even talk into his cell phone. And
Speaker 1: one review said, we would like to do over without
Speaker 1: the pitch to go to your website or podcast. It
Speaker 1: ruined the birthday wish. Another one he said the review
Speaker 1: is he didn't actually mention any of the intended recipients
Speaker 1: by name. That's the whole point of a fucking s
Speaker 1: your fucking money to do an egg for himself. Hey,
Speaker 1: it's hard to get this guy his town message, as
Speaker 1: as the Trump's learned. Hey, I just want to wish
Speaker 1: you a happy birthday. You know, because the mainstream media
Speaker 1: is completely smearing me. You gotta go to Rudy Giuliani
Speaker 1: dot com for the truth, Patriots, God bless you. It's like, what, Okay,
Speaker 1: I guess one tenth of a birthday wish? Also, what
Speaker 1: is leaking out of his head? That is not a
Speaker 1: sentence of cameo review, but you know, I'm sure, yes,
Speaker 1: his hairline is strong. His cameo was only up for
Speaker 1: around two weeks before he embarrassed himself by inadvertently recording
Speaker 1: a video praising the activists who protested against Venezuelan businessman
Speaker 1: Alejandro bent to Court, who happens to be one of
Speaker 1: his former clients. So that was a big no no.
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, Jam is speculating, like what
Speaker 1: what is next if this trajectory continues? Like where does
Speaker 1: what is his next money making scheme? Like Jam's guess
Speaker 1: is He's just gonna go door to door and let
Speaker 1: kids whip nerve products at his balls for fifty bucks
Speaker 1: a pop. It's a good Facebook group for that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: how does shoot Rudy Giuliani in the balls with the
Speaker 1: nerf face? Yeah? I guess of a reality show. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he needs he needs it because because if you're thinking
Speaker 1: right like you need you need a check, you need
Speaker 1: a good check. You can't clearly like Nickel and Diamond
Speaker 1: on Cameo and stuff, isn't putting together the money. So
Speaker 1: he's probably looking for a deal. But at this point,
Speaker 1: every like broadcasting outlet is like, you're toxic, get the
Speaker 1: funk away from me, Whereas I don't know, I think
Speaker 1: like we needed someone with like a reality show. That's
Speaker 1: it would be such so humiliating to him. But when
Speaker 1: he does the math, he's like, it was worth it, right,
Speaker 1: that's good money. Like I would route anything for love.
Speaker 1: They just switched it over. They're like, look all right
Speaker 1: me lovest gone, how about I would route anything for love? Yeah,
Speaker 1: except he wouldn't have the But I won't do that
Speaker 1: because he would do but it would do anything the
Speaker 1: real thing you griffed on nine eleven truthers. Wow, that's
Speaker 1: your play, Rudy. Yeah, I know ship. None of y'all know,
Speaker 1: you should just have his own Alex Jones show on.
Speaker 1: I mean, like, well, didn't they take him off because
Speaker 1: he was like such a liability because I remember when
Speaker 1: he was like on Fox News once and they were
Speaker 1: asking him about blackmail and he just admitted that he
Speaker 1: was being blackmailed, and they just like cut away because
Speaker 1: like he started to divulge too much. It seemed. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: he was like that. There there was a time I
Speaker 1: don't know if it's the wing you're referring to, where
Speaker 1: he was just like and I could drop a lot
Speaker 1: of facts like with me basically like I've got I
Speaker 1: got a dead hand switch, so if you shoot me,
Speaker 1: everyone goes like that sort of thing, like the thing
Speaker 1: that the joker yells at the cops as they're like,
Speaker 1: you know, five snipers have their guns trained on him.
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about Elon Musk real quick, because
Speaker 1: his Neuralink product company is back in the news. He
Speaker 1: announced towards the end of last year one that he
Speaker 1: was planning on starting human trials in Yeah, just put
Speaker 1: that ship right in my brain. Apparently they've added a
Speaker 1: job posting for a clinical trial director. Okay, which includes
Speaker 1: health benefits, dental flexible time off. But seeing as the
Speaker 1: job entails convincing actual human beings to let the guy
Speaker 1: who just funked up half a million cars and thinks
Speaker 1: aliens built the pyramids to surgically jam a computer in
Speaker 1: your brain. Yeah, I don't know, it's probably not worth it, Viking.
Speaker 1: You'll let me convince you, right, gonna apply? I need
Speaker 1: dental Yeah. Once, once somebody pointed out that this post
Speaker 1: was made black mirror started trending on Twitter. So J
Speaker 1: m R writer dug into, like what exactly is neuralink, Like, what,
Speaker 1: what's the point of it? It's a debit card, isn't it.
Speaker 1: So it's like the those like credit cards that people
Speaker 1: out of money. So it was founded in by Musk
Speaker 1: and some actual neuroscientists claiming that their brain implant was
Speaker 1: going to help people with brain injuries. That was like
Speaker 1: the sort of emma the reason for existing. And there
Speaker 1: are like really well ways that people are using neurology
Speaker 1: and technology to help people who have brain injuries or
Speaker 1: you know, or disabled. But then it became clear that
Speaker 1: he was like trying to turn this into a consumer
Speaker 1: facing product that acts as and this is a direct quote,
Speaker 1: a wizard hat for your brain that will connect your
Speaker 1: mind to the cloud. Oh no, oh my god, A
Speaker 1: wizard hat for the brain. Yea, a wizard hat for
Speaker 1: your brain. Like that is such a fucking thing that
Speaker 1: he said out loud, being like, it's like a wizard
Speaker 1: hat for your brain. I'm sorry, what does that even mean?
Speaker 1: Is the hat the thing that bestows the powers upon
Speaker 1: your brain or huh? Yeah, so that was earlier on
Speaker 1: in the development. He he kept ramping him up, claimed
Speaker 1: that they were gonna be possible medical benefits, including curing
Speaker 1: blindness and paralysis, but also the possibility that you could
Speaker 1: one day use it to drive your Tesla or even
Speaker 1: save and replay memories, which is literally the plot of
Speaker 1: a Black Mirror episode. You could ultimately download them into
Speaker 1: a new body or robot body. So he doesn't think small.
Speaker 1: He's like, eternal life is what I'm pitching here, My dude.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know. You go get your
Speaker 1: new Apple product, but I'm pitching Eternal life over here.
Speaker 1: Go fund yourself. Okay. That Black Mirror episode is the
Speaker 1: reason why I never got one of those apps that
Speaker 1: lets you see who follows and unfollows you, right, we
Speaker 1: don't need to know all this. It was such a
Speaker 1: good fable. Yeah. I was like, let's him learn. I
Speaker 1: see it, Thank you, Black Mirror need to know? Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I love his like boyish like idea of what
Speaker 1: the future is like for his own mortality was like
Speaker 1: and then when this physical body rocks to death, I'll
Speaker 1: just download my dumb fuckery into a robot body and
Speaker 1: continue this ship show. Yeah. He like seems to be
Speaker 1: acquainted with like a lot of the big ideas from
Speaker 1: like sci fi and philosophy from like the past thirty years.
Speaker 1: Like there there is a respected, respected ish like futurists
Speaker 1: who thought that like within our lifetimes we'd be able
Speaker 1: to do that. And he's just like a lot of
Speaker 1: people are now like that's absolute horseship, and like do
Speaker 1: you do you think that investors like they do? Do
Speaker 1: you think that they're that stupid? Yeah? Yeah, okay, yeah
Speaker 1: it turns out it turns out yeah yeah. And he
Speaker 1: tells a good story. I mean he is like people
Speaker 1: are like he's Tony Stark in real life. He's P. T. Barnum,
Speaker 1: Like that's what he is. He will go down as
Speaker 1: like one of our great liars in American history who's
Speaker 1: just like very good at telling the lie that people
Speaker 1: want to believe at that moment, and he's gotten you know,
Speaker 1: he's done. He's done some things, but that's just based
Speaker 1: on the work of like the massive amount of you know,
Speaker 1: like labor that he employs to get those things done,
Speaker 1: like SpaceX or those things. But yeah, it's I mean
Speaker 1: found I feel like these fucking I feel like right
Speaker 1: now the latest things like what about all you cyber
Speaker 1: truck people who don't still don't have your fucking metal
Speaker 1: lunch box car that was being promised constantly And I
Speaker 1: am because I actually thought that looked cool. You Oh
Speaker 1: you wanted the cybertruck. I wanted the cyber truck that
Speaker 1: looks like what robocops should have stopped out for blowing.
Speaker 1: You know what, I'm going to have a cyber truck
Speaker 1: for you underneath my Valentine's tree, just a little tiny one.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's cool. Come on, Jack, be grateful to give it.
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, that's great whatever, just like the real thing.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Jack, do you think people would be
Speaker 1: over bullshit by now? You know what I mean? It's
Speaker 1: like all the respectability politic, the bullshitting, the like you
Speaker 1: think that we'd be in a state where people would
Speaker 1: be like, say what you mean and prove it, But
Speaker 1: it's the opposite. It's the opposite. He had me with
Speaker 1: those roof tiles that were like solar panels, like what
Speaker 1: he when he like debuted those at some Tesla thing
Speaker 1: a while back, I think it was like eight ten
Speaker 1: years ago. I was like, that's a great idea, and
Speaker 1: like he it was a good like presentation. Those still
Speaker 1: aren't on the market, Those still are not really a
Speaker 1: thing that any ordinary person can get, but yeah, basically
Speaker 1: so they The big sort of smart showmanship from this
Speaker 1: year is that they showed neuralink being used by a
Speaker 1: monkey to play pong using only his mind, which, if
Speaker 1: you don't listen to Radio Lab, is pretty mind blowing.
Speaker 1: But Radio Lab has been talking about scientists doing this
Speaker 1: for like a long a long time. That's yeah, it's
Speaker 1: neuroscientists have been implanting BC is very similar to neuralinks
Speaker 1: since the early two thousand's, And basically his claim is
Speaker 1: that he's going to make this make it available to
Speaker 1: everyday Americans, which is like he's kind of setting there
Speaker 1: with the Tesla car. But even then when he tried
Speaker 1: to do that, like the car, like he couldn't manufacture
Speaker 1: at that scale, like it just like his vision for
Speaker 1: that broke down when it came to labor laws. The
Speaker 1: second that Apple TV was able to have a remote
Speaker 1: with a chip in it so that it knows when
Speaker 1: you pause and what you pause on, you know, and
Speaker 1: has all that data, like that's all it wanted. Like
Speaker 1: as soon as it had a remote control, then it
Speaker 1: switched up to have a chip in it, so like
Speaker 1: for a massive amount of Americans to have a brain chip,
Speaker 1: Like I don't think that we're being wondering if it's
Speaker 1: just another way to like control our lives with our brains,
Speaker 1: right and to just speak like fully, like you just
Speaker 1: become a data point like fully where it's like no,
Speaker 1: I mean we are already right, like the even more
Speaker 1: Yeah the phones are bad enough, but yeah, I like.
Speaker 1: But also the other part of it is, is this
Speaker 1: going to be like a lasic type procedure because you're
Speaker 1: talking about implanting a fucking micro chip in your brain?
Speaker 1: Like right, going for it? Oh yeah, I forgot about
Speaker 1: my skull. You definitely want to make sure that they
Speaker 1: clean it before they put it in there. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: rubbed it off on my shirt. All right, now put
Speaker 1: the put the nostril expanders so you can fu shoot
Speaker 1: this thing straight total recall style. Yeah. Oh man, that
Speaker 1: like when they pull that thing out of his brain
Speaker 1: through his nostril and total recall. My brain has never
Speaker 1: been the same since then. But like so, like I
Speaker 1: said up top, though, they are doing amazing ship with
Speaker 1: like neural implants and like people who suffered a stroke
Speaker 1: and were incapable of speech and now they've figured out
Speaker 1: how to like let them speak again, or you know,
Speaker 1: allowing a blind woman to see letters into certain objects.
Speaker 1: But like neuroscientists who are involved in that sort of thing,
Speaker 1: I've been pretty critical. They're like, you're trying to take
Speaker 1: credit for work that a lot of people have been
Speaker 1: doing for a lot of years. We've been planting wireless
Speaker 1: devices a monkey since weird brag, but like, oh man,
Speaker 1: putting brains planning wireless devices in monkey since so don't
Speaker 1: you even try, Mr Musk Yeah, alright, alright, your brain
Speaker 1: brain implant hipster, like Jesus excuse me, brain brag M.
Speaker 1: And then so the neuroscientists who founded it with him
Speaker 1: has recently been demoted. This guy Hodak has been demoted,
Speaker 1: and Musk is like taking on a bigger roll because
Speaker 1: right the the stuff that you can accomplish with this
Speaker 1: technology that is like amazing is not like doesn't really
Speaker 1: match with Elon Musk's brand, right Like that That's what
Speaker 1: always didn't make sense to me. Is like an amazing
Speaker 1: cutting edge technology that like solves the ablems of people
Speaker 1: with people with disabilities, or at least like addresses the
Speaker 1: problems of people who want a part of their disability
Speaker 1: like aided or changed, is really cool. But like David
Speaker 1: Eagleman does a lot of really cool ship with that
Speaker 1: at Stanford. But it's like, that's not what Elon Musk does.
Speaker 1: Elon Musk like wants to promise cool futuristic ship too,
Speaker 1: like everyday people. You know, Like he wants to be
Speaker 1: the person who like allows you to drive your car
Speaker 1: without touching anything. You know, he doesn't. He's not in
Speaker 1: it for the helping people walk who weren't able to
Speaker 1: walk before. Like that just doesn't. I always knew it
Speaker 1: was ridiculous, but when you frame it so plainly, it's
Speaker 1: really sad. No cars you can drive in them same
Speaker 1: size and the same disturbance, but you don't have to
Speaker 1: touch anything. You can be on your phone. Jan thinks
Speaker 1: this is gonna be It's not gonna be a scary
Speaker 1: dystopian technology. It's all about like replacing video game controllers
Speaker 1: like NBR helmets so that you can just like close
Speaker 1: your eyes and have a BR experience until the Pentagon
Speaker 1: is like hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
Speaker 1: hold on run that back. Last month, Elon Musk didn't
Speaker 1: interview with The Babylon b which, yeah, the website that's
Speaker 1: like the Onion if it wasn't funny and run by
Speaker 1: right wing hacks. But Elon Musk is a fan, not surprisingly,
Speaker 1: and so he did an interview with with them and
Speaker 1: specifically hyped Neuralink as a virtual reality alternative to the metaverse.
Speaker 1: So again, the metaverse the most underwhelming, like new tech development,
Speaker 1: like I think we've ever seen as as an America
Speaker 1: like that, nobody's ever been like all right, everybody, get ready,
Speaker 1: and then like the thing they're revealing is something that
Speaker 1: was like old said, been years ago. But that that
Speaker 1: like even even with the segue, when people are like
Speaker 1: this is going to change everything, like it would have
Speaker 1: if people if it didn't look so stupid and people
Speaker 1: were willing to adopt it as much as they wanted
Speaker 1: them to. But it's not like it was like all right,
Speaker 1: everybody like get ready. And then the thing they were
Speaker 1: like revealing was the escalator side note Babylon b Babylon,
Speaker 1: Middle East. That's Muslim claiming it creeping Sharia. Tally there
Speaker 1: it is, got to the bottom. I found my way anyways,
Speaker 1: fuck Elon Musk is the mall of the story. Well,
Speaker 1: Zarah as always truly truly a pleasure having you on

Speaker 1: just ends with a card. It's just a card that's
Speaker 1: with with typing in white font. Through the clue provided
Speaker 1: by Tyler, the police rapidly figured out the whole plan
Speaker 1: and arrested all criminals, successfully preventing the bomb from exploding.
Speaker 1: After the trial, Tyler was sent to lunatic asylum, receiving
Speaker 1: psychological treatment. He was discharged from the hospital in two
Speaker 1: thousand twelve. The end, it's done, twelve, he's out Tyler. Wow,
Speaker 1: I mean that's a better ending, right, that's pretty good there,
Speaker 1: that's pretty You don't see them looking out the window
Speaker 1: with the buildings exploding. It's just and boom. Hey, and
Speaker 1: Tyler went to jail. But he's out, don't worry. Yeah,
Speaker 1: where do they cut it off? Like, do they even
Speaker 1: reveal that he Yeah, I guess because Tyler and yeah,
Speaker 1: they yeah, they cut it off as a as a
Speaker 1: the explosions are cut out. That's what happens, like the explosions. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you don't see you don't you don't get to see
Speaker 1: Marla and and you know ed Norton be like happenings
Speaker 1: as Iranian are cute familiar with the software weaponry. I
Speaker 1: appreciate this efficiency. You know, in the United States we
Speaker 1: go all out with our fake endings in our Disney history.
Speaker 1: We really give it a lot of money, millions and
Speaker 1: millions of dollars. And this this is just this is fast,
Speaker 1: it's clear and at right off boom, beautiful miles. Where
Speaker 1: can people find you? What's the tweet you've been enjoying
Speaker 1: me on Twitter and Instagram at Miles of Gray And
Speaker 1: also if you like reality shows like ninety Day or
Speaker 1: Married at First, I check out Fiance with myself and
Speaker 1: Sophia Alexandra some tweets like first one was from Molly
Speaker 1: Lambert at Molly Lambert. The Valley Homie tweeted, We've got
Speaker 1: to be so close to an Entourage re reboot, and
Speaker 1: I feel like it's so it would be so terrible
Speaker 1: because the show I can't exist anymore but feasible because
Speaker 1: the lack of creativity from people just like green lighting
Speaker 1: projects like yeah, yeah, yeah, let's check back in with
Speaker 1: the boys. There's gonna be like a mathematical equation that's
Speaker 1: related to both like how popular show was and how
Speaker 1: little the cast is currently doing like elsewhere in their career.
Speaker 1: And I feel like that ticks the boxes. And then
Speaker 1: other ones from Ben Collins, who is at one underscore
Speaker 1: and then an underscore, very clever tweet. He just tweeted,
Speaker 1: not sure what to even say, and he's basically quote
Speaker 1: tweeting Cheryl Hines, who she came out with a statement
Speaker 1: where she said, my husband's opinions are not a reflection
Speaker 1: of my own. While we love each other, we differ.
Speaker 1: We differ on many current issues. And in his quote
Speaker 1: to me, he said, here's Cheryl Hines commenting on her
Speaker 1: husband RFK jors comparison between anti Baxtors and Jews in
Speaker 1: World War Two. Cheryl Hines replies to this and said,
Speaker 1: I assure you that's not what I was commenting on.
Speaker 1: And he's like huh. And then someone else quote tweets
Speaker 1: her replies and he's like, you know we can see
Speaker 1: the replies that you know this right because someone said
Speaker 1: in another like another tweet they tagged her and said
Speaker 1: you need to make a statement, and she said the
Speaker 1: other thing of like, while we love each other, we
Speaker 1: differ on many other topics. And then Cheryl hind says, yeah,
Speaker 1: I know you can see, so you can see what
Speaker 1: I'm replying to write nothing about World War two? And
Speaker 1: he's like, when do you think the Holocaust happened? Like
Speaker 1: what is this? And then she posted some other thing
Speaker 1: today that was like, you know, he I doubt what
Speaker 1: he said is like absolutely unacceptable or not even unacceptable.
Speaker 1: It just basically said, yeah, I'm fine with him fucking
Speaker 1: like being flipping about the Holocaust. That's why our marriage works,
Speaker 1: right because what it's yeah, seemed to him. Yeah, power couple,
