Speaker 1: Caitlin Gil Forever and always yours, Scateland Gil, roller skating,
Speaker 1: There anything you'd like to funk? That's right. Didn't get
Speaker 1: the Olympics for skateboarding because you wouldn't take off her
Speaker 1: roller skate What everyone would have Won. I don't know
Speaker 1: why I decided roller skating and not skateboarding. The actual
Speaker 1: logo I have for Skateland Delf is skateboarding, but in
Speaker 1: my heart she is also a roller skater. I feel
Speaker 1: like you got like Derby Ship. Maybe that's when I'm
Speaker 1: really old. When I'm Skateland Delf, I'll just be breaking
Speaker 1: bones on the hard core of the Derby Wars. Do
Speaker 1: we think rollerball is the near future? Perhaps I'm qualified
Speaker 1: has to be. I'm Caitlyn gilt Scalin gilf eternally yours.
Speaker 1: We really overrated the creativity and like fun of our
Speaker 1: apocalyptic futures in these in those movies and others, and
Speaker 1: instead it's just very Watching so much apocalyptic material in
Speaker 1: the last year and a half is it's a milage.
Speaker 1: It's like a Rover Ball is like one of your days,
Speaker 1: and then Hunger Games is like another day. And then
Speaker 1: you take a long, long on the road, and then
Speaker 1: something on the road is like, oh, didn't take your
Speaker 1: ball right this? And then you keep going and it's
Speaker 1: like just pick where are we going to eat? What
Speaker 1: do we watch on TV as we eat our war rations? Oh?
Speaker 1: The Running Man is on great exactly exactly, and The
Speaker 1: Masked Singer will still be running, and it's mass Singer
Speaker 1: does take place in A in the shared post apocalyptic universe.
Speaker 1: If I've mentioned this before, I apologize, but it's something
Speaker 1: that haunts me. I don't think any other city, but
Speaker 1: l A experienced the blanketing of like billboard media for
Speaker 1: The mask Singer and it's first season before anyone, like,
Speaker 1: I mean, people knew what it was. I guess it's
Speaker 1: l A, but it was just these horrifying like Lion
Speaker 1: and Ostrich heads. It was a very like ornate season.
Speaker 1: It was very the capital for my young adult literature
Speaker 1: Hunger Games fans. Oh it's so weird. You just turn
Speaker 1: around and it's just like Lion, but it's a person
Speaker 1: and you don't know why it's in the sky, but
Speaker 1: it's too ornate. It's like, do I word it in
Speaker 1: my voting for this? Yeah. The hard bit too, is
Speaker 1: that you didn't know what the concept of the show was.
Speaker 1: So I just remember seeing I'm like, dude, I don't
Speaker 1: know what I don't care what this is. Is this
Speaker 1: like the new Daniel day Lewis film. It was just
Speaker 1: it was like marketing campaign for another city. L A
Speaker 1: was just like we get it dystopia. Yeah. I remember
Speaker 1: when I first moved to l A being surprised at
Speaker 1: the prominence of like billboard culture out here. I wonder, Yeah,
Speaker 1: like the boards are are a thing here that people
Speaker 1: pay attention to. They're our Pokemon cards. That's right, if
Speaker 1: you will, All right, Caitlin, We're gonna get to know
Speaker 1: you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're
Speaker 1: gonna tell our listeners a couple of the things we're
Speaker 1: talking about. We're gonna talk about the uh banning of
Speaker 1: vaccinated people from one restaurant in Hunting the Beach, the
Speaker 1: banning of unvaccinated people in other more prominent things. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about Moe Brooks and just the general January sixth
Speaker 1: investigations and what's all going down there. And we will
Speaker 1: talk about Olympic fast food promos. We will talk about
Speaker 1: on a streaming corner, we we did watch We Are
Speaker 1: Lady Parts and uh, we're gonna we're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: that and other shows all that plenty more. But first, Caitlin,
Speaker 1: we like cask our guest, what is something from your
Speaker 1: search history? Oh? Man, Okay, it's horrifying and I don't
Speaker 1: recommend that you ever search it, and if you have to,
Speaker 1: I apologize. I think that if you have searched this,
Speaker 1: then you understand how my weak has been. But boy,
Speaker 1: have I been reviewing too many Google images of ant stings.
Speaker 1: I wish the audience could have seen the dramatic rip
Speaker 1: off of my glasses proceeded the cult by the collapsing
Speaker 1: of my banks. But yeah, I am a little bit
Speaker 1: since I'm a little sensitive sensitive to ant stings and
Speaker 1: I live in the desert of the Southwest, so they're
Speaker 1: sort of an inevitability. I got stung by an unlike
Speaker 1: the hip side, but I have there's a part of
Speaker 1: my body because I am a soft person that is
Speaker 1: unundentifiable as hip, sire. But I think you all know
Speaker 1: by now what part that is. But like, if you
Speaker 1: had to pick one, it's like your hip, but it's
Speaker 1: not as lower than that, and it's your side, but
Speaker 1: like it's such a tor butt and there's that but
Speaker 1: yet I don't know. I'd probably crop it out of
Speaker 1: a picture. I just call it a quadrant. Now, yeah,
Speaker 1: it was my launch is where I was struck, which
Speaker 1: is like the softest. It's just my most generous place
Speaker 1: so there's no stopping. It's just I look, there's no stopping.
Speaker 1: There's nothing for the swelling to stop at. It can
Speaker 1: just keep going. And it's the way an ant stings
Speaker 1: is that it grabs you with its horrible pictures and
Speaker 1: then it sticks you with poison once, and then it
Speaker 1: swings its ass around and sticks you with poison again
Speaker 1: and again in a little circles sticking. Yes, it's like
Speaker 1: break dancing, like doing full full on windmillst wins, but
Speaker 1: striking you with poison stings at regular intervals, so they
Speaker 1: stop very much, so it's like multiple stings. It's a
Speaker 1: whole thing. It's been a lot of better drill, but
Speaker 1: I really do this. One's for fans of the movies
Speaker 1: that also, you know, touch my heart. Everybody who's watched
Speaker 1: a league of their own enough times to know when
Speaker 1: to turn away to not see that bruise on the
Speaker 1: girl's leg who took the slider skirt that I took
Speaker 1: a picture, that's like damn on the stand in like
Speaker 1: if they'll be there, it's atrocious. So yeah, like the
Speaker 1: thing about being sensitive, I'm going on. I'm going on
Speaker 1: and on. I'll stop in a second. It's like to
Speaker 1: an ants thing. It's like, that's terrible, but I'm not allergic.
Speaker 1: There's no EpiPen. I don't need to go in an
Speaker 1: ambulance to the hospital. But it still sucks very much.
Speaker 1: And in cournaments tie ins that is like the mild
Speaker 1: case of an ant sting, like a mild case of
Speaker 1: COVID is awful. It's fucking flooring you for weeks. You
Speaker 1: feel like absolute shit. The thing is, that's a mild case.
Speaker 1: So I'm having a very light, like little tiny allergic
Speaker 1: reaction to an ants sting, which looks like a fucking warmond.
Speaker 1: What kind of ants are? What what I just felt
Speaker 1: like growing up in l A. It's just like those
Speaker 1: red fire ants are the one that was thing like
Speaker 1: that's would be like, oh, I've I've dug too many
Speaker 1: holes in a playground and been stuffed up by those ants.
Speaker 1: But like other than that, I'm I'm ignorant. My first
Speaker 1: encounter was in Atlanta, and I don't remember what kind
Speaker 1: of ants lived there, but boy did they hurt an edge.
Speaker 1: These ants I live in the desert, like in Joshua Tree,
Speaker 1: an actual desert. There are nineteen types of ants in
Speaker 1: the art. There are at any time, like twelve different
Speaker 1: kinds of ants visible for you to observe a few
Speaker 1: of them. Biden staying, I have a guess at which
Speaker 1: one got me, and I will vengefully kill any member
Speaker 1: of their species. I did something kind of disturbing in
Speaker 1: the shower doing AUNT. I was a little bit like Kaylor,
Speaker 1: listen to Unlove Murder podcast to know that this is
Speaker 1: like a little permission. You're grinding yourself. I'm just like
Speaker 1: like removing segments. But I also have like a good,
Speaker 1: enormous while. Okay, yeah, so I've been looking up ant
Speaker 1: sticks and all it's fair. All's fair with that ant bites.
Speaker 1: We get it in love and War with ants? What
Speaker 1: is something you think is overrated? Okay? In the desert,
Speaker 1: living driving faster? Stop driving faster. Why do you think
Speaker 1: you're gonna get there faster? Why are you passing someone
Speaker 1: on a two lane desert highway? Are you trying to
Speaker 1: see more desert? Do you think the desert is pretty
Speaker 1: or faster? Stop? Stop driving faster? You are you can
Speaker 1: drive that. Look, there's time, You'll find a time. But
Speaker 1: if you're behind the semi, please just don't get all
Speaker 1: rigid behind the semi just don't drive fast, please. I
Speaker 1: think it's overrated. I've done it, of course, I've done it.
Speaker 1: Of course I've looked down and been like, look, we're
Speaker 1: going a hundred. We're starting to shake. I'm not correctly
Speaker 1: behind another human driving. I am not passing them on
Speaker 1: the right. Yeah. Yeah, you're already going very fast. Like
Speaker 1: the difference between sixty and sixty five is just like
Speaker 1: negligible enough for you to like you don't have to
Speaker 1: you're going very fast. I feel like it's always happens
Speaker 1: like in areas, like especially like in like in California,
Speaker 1: where it'll be sort of like the sort of secluded
Speaker 1: regions of the state that like don't have a lot
Speaker 1: of like you know, tourists or just people kind of
Speaker 1: traveling through where they have the least patience for it.
Speaker 1: I remember driving through Santa Cruz where like roads you
Speaker 1: know super wide or you know safe, and I remember
Speaker 1: con sentaly people like honking like I'm like, dude, I'm
Speaker 1: going like forty five on like the windiest road. I
Speaker 1: already feel like I'm in Grand Tarismo, like bending corners
Speaker 1: and ship and people will be like fuck it past
Speaker 1: you on in a corner. And you're like, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: witness something terrible, up and down hills, overround corners. It's
Speaker 1: a wild and the desert. The insight I have gained
Speaker 1: is that like I can see you broke, like we
Speaker 1: are still driving together for many miles there is right
Speaker 1: here and walking in the same direction on a city street,
Speaker 1: but for like miles and setting rugged by someone going
Speaker 1: the same direction is year you just got a cruise
Speaker 1: from from for a while, like enjoy the phone. I
Speaker 1: don't know delete, don't know where can I get it back?
Speaker 1: All right? I keep going, there's just no don't have that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I the thing is, I see you're still just
Speaker 1: you're right there, like you're still right. You passed me good,
Speaker 1: You're right, I'm right years ago. I'd imagine there's a
Speaker 1: good correlation, but mean ego and people who must pass
Speaker 1: people that are too slow for them because I feel
Speaker 1: like that because I used to be like that to him,
Speaker 1: like I'm getting stuck behind no ghosts or you know,
Speaker 1: slow drivers Like I just in my mind, I was like,
Speaker 1: that's not me. I don't do that. I don't play that.
Speaker 1: And that was like probably me and my most superficial
Speaker 1: too like and just like no understanding of who I was.
Speaker 1: And then I'm like, yeah, you know, your safety is
Speaker 1: a concern too. I don't need to like go super
Speaker 1: fast like you know, unless obviously there are times when
Speaker 1: you are on a like a two lane road and
Speaker 1: you can tell like I'm I don't need to be
Speaker 1: driving under sixty behind this person, but safely, that's fine.
Speaker 1: It's just the like you don't yeah nothing, You're never
Speaker 1: in a race. You're never winning the race you're in,
Speaker 1: I promise, Uh yeah, I love that. One of those days,
Speaker 1: if someone passes you and it's someone trying to drop
Speaker 1: something off at your house, it's like a courier, Hey, hi,
Speaker 1: we're here both we're both here blocking the whole way.
Speaker 1: I do the most evil thing because I've tried angry
Speaker 1: things like flipping people off, but that doesn't work, And
Speaker 1: especially when it's a man passing me or makes me
Speaker 1: man on the road, I just start laughing, like really
Speaker 1: like me, like just laughing, trying to make it as
Speaker 1: obvious with my face is physically possible that I am
Speaker 1: laughing at, like putting everything in my bones to make
Speaker 1: it clear that I am laughing. Act then and I
Speaker 1: really think it's the most effective thing I've ever done
Speaker 1: to piss someone. It is incredible. It is the painful
Speaker 1: aunt bite for a toxic man is laughing that there?
Speaker 1: You what? What is something you think is under it?
Speaker 1: King and Queen of my last week and honestly, if
Speaker 1: I'm being my last here ice packs, honey child darling,
Speaker 1: if you don't have an ice pack in your freezer
Speaker 1: at all times, ready for you to use for your enjoyment,
Speaker 1: change your life by adding an ice pack bag of
Speaker 1: peas will do it. You don't gotta go spending for
Speaker 1: some things, but you will. Eventually you'll be like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't want that, Joel be an ice pack, but
Speaker 1: start with by just grabbing vegetables you don't want to
Speaker 1: eat and placing them on your body. I'm porky. Listen
Speaker 1: to the old woman talking to you, young child in
Speaker 1: growth in years, preventative care is all the rage. You're
Speaker 1: doing it for your beautiful face, kin, do it for
Speaker 1: your sweet sweet joints. You don't need an ice pack always.
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean you shouldn't write for one. What if
Speaker 1: your pleasure. I live in a hot place, I just
Speaker 1: wear an ice pack occasionally all the cool athletes do it?
Speaker 1: Ice packs are cool? Y'all? Ice packs are so cool.
Speaker 1: Here's something like a cool ice pack, like a like
Speaker 1: a like a lebron ice pack doesn't have one check
Speaker 1: probably endorser. I feel like, well, there's like those hyper
Speaker 1: ice you know, there are ones that athletes use that
Speaker 1: are definitely like on the next level it. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: like made in a lab somewhere, like the fare gun
Speaker 1: and things. I'm like, do I need five? Do I
Speaker 1: need to spend five for this? Am I any of
Speaker 1: that kind of condition? I'll be like, I'll just take
Speaker 1: the thing from when I ordered something that was frozen
Speaker 1: on the internet and just keep those three the grocery
Speaker 1: delivery ice pack that's just like a block of those
Speaker 1: are ice packs. They were test my theory. See if
Speaker 1: it's for you, shout out to Zight Gang. When we
Speaker 1: had Our Lives show in Toronto, there was a listener
Speaker 1: from Montreal who brought Montreal smoked meats and gave it
Speaker 1: to us, and it gave with all these ice packs.
Speaker 1: It's like, I think they should be fine for the
Speaker 1: flight back, Like they're pretty stable, they're smoked me and
Speaker 1: I'm like, great, I saved those fucking ice packs. Baby, yeah,
Speaker 1: I still international ice packs. I haven't been my freezer.
Speaker 1: I use them all the time. That's how I ice
Speaker 1: down my vaccine shot. Oh yeah, see yeah yeah. I
Speaker 1: just think we forget if we're ache or headache or
Speaker 1: feel shitty that you actually can't do something about it
Speaker 1: for right now. That works, right now. There's just like
Speaker 1: nice relief kind of all around you. Sometimes, So when
Speaker 1: the stressful an ice pack is under rated. The cheapest
Speaker 1: air conditioner is a soaking wet hand towel. You right
Speaker 1: out on it and put it on your back, straight back,
Speaker 1: and you lay on your stomach on the tile floor. Baby,
Speaker 1: anybody stuck in the heat waves, you get you get
Speaker 1: yourself a little spray bottle and you just brey your sheets.
Speaker 1: You're sleeping only under the top sheet anyway, You just
Speaker 1: you just bread that top sheet. It's not wet. It's
Speaker 1: just sort of like really just like damn. Yeah, nobody
Speaker 1: likes damp. Nobody wants a damp sheet. Moist sheet also
Speaker 1: not great sprints. Let's go with sprints. I was gonna say,
Speaker 1: I was gonna recommend three ice packs because you have
Speaker 1: to like cycle them in and out and so you
Speaker 1: have the water that's out and then it gets warm,
Speaker 1: and then you have the the domino over right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that will become clear to the ice pack user as
Speaker 1: it becomes a deeper part of their life. But then
Speaker 1: I was told that you're actually not supposed to like
Speaker 1: perpetually have ice on any part of your body, like
Speaker 1: for too long a period at times. So, uh, you
Speaker 1: want to do like you're definitely not yeah, yeah, yeah
Speaker 1: at most, I'll tell you, yeah, unless you're like when
Speaker 1: these people like I want to go numb. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't dry ice on your body. Whenever you're putting your body,
Speaker 1: your body is gonna warm up a little bit, so
Speaker 1: it will naturally, you know. Fifteen or twenty minutes is
Speaker 1: about the maximum ice can sit on a nine point
Speaker 1: six degree object anyway, So you're you're all right. I
Speaker 1: haven't had a haircut since last March, So I am
Speaker 1: trying to hang out with the gang and actually look
Speaker 1: at you and enjoy this digital meeting that we are
Speaker 1: having together to record this podcast. And if I could
Speaker 1: do another stand in bit, I am the Adams family
Speaker 1: cousin at stand in, I can't. I couldn't get cast
Speaker 1: as cousin it, but I could stand there while they
Speaker 1: set the cameras. Or you look like a side character
Speaker 1: like in a cartoon about like hippies, or like there's
Speaker 1: like that one character who's like hair was so shaggy,
Speaker 1: like you never saw their face. Yeah yeah, but I
Speaker 1: still Yeah, do you want some pot? I'm hungry some
Speaker 1: nineties conservative yuppies like idea of a hippie. Yeah, exactly
Speaker 1: cut their hair and you can't can't even see out
Speaker 1: of their hair. All right, let's take a quick break.
Speaker 1: We'll be right back, right, and we're back. I never left.
Speaker 1: Don't tell them. We we like to preserve the illusion
Speaker 1: that we just like go off into yeah, yeah, go
Speaker 1: do some yard work, come back real quick. So there's
Speaker 1: like a war of regulations going on, the most fun
Speaker 1: type of war between so, like there are anti vax
Speaker 1: restaurants and various communities around America. There's a hunting Tion
Speaker 1: Beach restaurant which has this sign on the window notice
Speaker 1: proof of being unvaccinated required, and then like a picture
Speaker 1: of a shot like being broken in half, and then
Speaker 1: underneath we have zero tolerance for treasonists, I think, Yeah, treasonists,
Speaker 1: anti American stupidity. Thank you for pondering. That's the they
Speaker 1: love to make it seem like they are the thoughtful ones, like,
Speaker 1: just ponder this, bro, is this the America you want?
Speaker 1: It's I just think we're getting to you know. It's
Speaker 1: it's obviously the accusing the other side of what they
Speaker 1: themselves are guilty of in allowed and aggressive way. It's
Speaker 1: like the Trump playbook. But I also think they're benefiting
Speaker 1: from the fact that their selfishness and like desperation to
Speaker 1: be unique is so embarrassing that we just kind of
Speaker 1: like look away and we can't. I feel like we
Speaker 1: can't do that anymore. I thought, I feel like we're
Speaker 1: slowly coming to terms with the fact that we we
Speaker 1: have to get into that incredibly embarrassing argument that it's
Speaker 1: just become too easy for them to say bullshit. Well yeah,
Speaker 1: And also I think we also are not signaling with
Speaker 1: any kinds of regulations that are like truly being applied
Speaker 1: consistently to say like if you don't, if you're doing this,
Speaker 1: you're running a foul of what the norms are at
Speaker 1: the moment. Sure, you have the choice to not be vaccinated, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you have free will. No one's arguing that. But I
Speaker 1: think The biggest thing is that where people get caught
Speaker 1: up is that then at that point, if you are
Speaker 1: choosing to be unvaccinated and potentially a vector for infection
Speaker 1: and possibly spreading a disease, that you then will lose
Speaker 1: some abilities or things you may have been used to
Speaker 1: as a result of the decision that you made. That's
Speaker 1: completely your choice. No one is saying that you should
Speaker 1: go to jail if you do it, But don't act
Speaker 1: like you can still go to the fucking baseball game
Speaker 1: or an indoor facility with your mask off and be
Speaker 1: unvaccinated and potentially spread the illness because of this perceived freedom.
Speaker 1: And I'm just I'm just more curious before anything because
Speaker 1: they love saying we love to prove a negative, you know,
Speaker 1: that's I love that philosophical point where we come to
Speaker 1: or you have to prove something that isn't But how
Speaker 1: would you even prove this? Like how do you go
Speaker 1: in if you go to this restaurant in wherever, Orange
Speaker 1: County and they say, okay, proof of unvaccination please? Yeah,
Speaker 1: uh hey man, fucking trump baby, all right, here's your table.
Speaker 1: I don't know, like yeah, Like it's just it's just
Speaker 1: that it doesn't even this even the stands entire family
Speaker 1: got the vaccine. Everyone this demistration got the fucking vaccine, right,
Speaker 1: just got the vaccine. Everyone telling you that the vaccine
Speaker 1: is weird breaks the fucking vaccine. They all do. They
Speaker 1: all got it. I don't that thing of wanting to
Speaker 1: feel so special, like you're so so smart, and I
Speaker 1: just don't understand. But I do get. I understand so
Speaker 1: many of the roots of mistrust of like giant institutions.
Speaker 1: This just isn't the time, like you missed on this one.
Speaker 1: There's so many reasons to mistrust a lot of things
Speaker 1: and uh in systems and institutions. But it's not this time.
Speaker 1: It's not as good as it used to be. It's
Speaker 1: not you know, selling the patent for insulin for a
Speaker 1: dollar so people can to have it to cut to
Speaker 1: where we are now. It's not giving the giving the
Speaker 1: polio vaccine away. We're not cool. Fighter is not great,
Speaker 1: Like I don't like, you know, I'm not getting a
Speaker 1: maderna fuck tattoo on my forehead, but I got the shot,
Speaker 1: but I'll get it on my lower back. So it's
Speaker 1: not all the time. Yeah, it's yeah, it's it's it's
Speaker 1: a it's a really tough spot and a lot of
Speaker 1: people have pointed out to like, aside from the misinformation
Speaker 1: on social media, you could really you're truly the line
Speaker 1: has to be drawn directly to the beginning of the
Speaker 1: pandemic when everyone in the Republican Party said, it's just
Speaker 1: a cold, it's just a cold, it's nothing. And it
Speaker 1: was that first moment, you know, because there's a lot
Speaker 1: of been analysis about what really is social media's role
Speaker 1: in this misinformation dimension of the anti vaccine sentiment, and
Speaker 1: most of it are like if the table was set
Speaker 1: the second everyone on the right set it's not a
Speaker 1: big deal more than the others, more than like the
Speaker 1: microchip nonsense. It's the idea that they were because it
Speaker 1: was shortsighted. They were purely there to preserve the economy
Speaker 1: and having that run with a varied little interruption that
Speaker 1: they just said, we gotta tell pop what, ain't that
Speaker 1: big of a deal because that's the only way we
Speaker 1: can keep ship running for as long as possible. And
Speaker 1: that has really been the largest thing is mostly the
Speaker 1: messaging that we get from the top, and now it's
Speaker 1: just too a little too late. Yeah, I do feel
Speaker 1: like they can get away with more and are open
Speaker 1: to you know, we we have Marjorie Taylor Green and
Speaker 1: people like that because social media is a tool. So
Speaker 1: they're like making the decision based on the fact that, Okay,
Speaker 1: we can use social media just say whatever the funk
Speaker 1: we want to say. Definitely doesn't excuse anything from the
Speaker 1: Republican Party, Like any blame that's being put on social media,
Speaker 1: that's like, well, you're just gonna have ignorance because it's
Speaker 1: social media. It's like, no, it's people in power taking
Speaker 1: advantage of that. But remember to speak to your elders. Gramma, over,
Speaker 1: here's forty I've seen forty. Gosh darn witers. I'm very young.
Speaker 1: I feel very but I have been around long enough
Speaker 1: to like has been a child on a playground without
Speaker 1: social media there, So when you see the dynamics of
Speaker 1: social media expand, it is just our same fucking playground,
Speaker 1: brain stretching out like this. It's not any different from
Speaker 1: like fifth graders pretending they know what hand jobs are,
Speaker 1: like the misinformation campaigns that we all spread about like nords.
Speaker 1: It's the stake and the same characters play about. There's
Speaker 1: people with bravado they're very like their whole mission is
Speaker 1: to be like sort of louder and bigger, and that's
Speaker 1: the only thing that really strategizing on. They kind of
Speaker 1: don't care what they dropped into, the models that fit
Speaker 1: getting the loud attention, and you watch those people rising,
Speaker 1: and every part of politics it's the same playground. Social
Speaker 1: media is just few. It's like letting people relive that
Speaker 1: same weird whisper campaign And yeah, I know, I know,
Speaker 1: I've done it. I've done done it with like a
Speaker 1: few vaccines. It's the same shit. I don't know what
Speaker 1: it is. You don't know what you know. It's Mr
Speaker 1: Rene is true, is bomb. But there's a whole bunch
Speaker 1: of him and kids quietly just standing there, understanding everything
Speaker 1: and not saying a fucking word because they don't want
Speaker 1: to get in the mix. And there's the kids that
Speaker 1: argue back the folks in the comments section just like
Speaker 1: how dare you? And even doesn't do any fucking good
Speaker 1: because that's just the attention. That's a cycle that feeds itself.
Speaker 1: It's the same you know who. I've just been around
Speaker 1: long enough to watch both and I recognized the dynamic
Speaker 1: well enough. Our brains are we're just we're not any
Speaker 1: smarter than we were before social media, so we're gonna
Speaker 1: do all the same dumb ship like belief things that
Speaker 1: aren't true, really passionately right again. Named Michael Dorff is
Speaker 1: saying that people can't eat at his restaurant without showing
Speaker 1: sign proof of vaccination, which is getting him, you know, protested.
Speaker 1: So that's you know, I think that's the sort of
Speaker 1: thing that needs to happen. There's the San Francisco Bar
Speaker 1: Owners Association guy named Ben Blinman is talking about like
Speaker 1: having the same policy he and his just explanation which
Speaker 1: is the same explanation the v A is giving for
Speaker 1: requiring everybody who works at the VA to get vaccinated.
Speaker 1: Is it seems to be the easiest and fastest way
Speaker 1: to protect people. It's just like a very straightforward and
Speaker 1: clean and like that's it. That's that's just we've looked
Speaker 1: at the data and this is what protects people. Yeah,
Speaker 1: But in the federal government, I think is doing a
Speaker 1: similar thing where they're going to either require you get
Speaker 1: vaccinated or show weekly clean test, which is just gonna
Speaker 1: make it super fucking annoying to be unvaccinated, which I
Speaker 1: think is hopefully going to start friends who can't get vaccinated.
Speaker 1: It's not many, but they're out there and having an
Speaker 1: opportunity absolutely working by testing clean and keeping yourself safe
Speaker 1: is something that I think is awesome. So just to
Speaker 1: not assume that every absolutely everyone is thinking the same
Speaker 1: thing can't necessarily get the vaccine, I'm sure that's terrifying. Yeah,
Speaker 1: your your well being is in the hands of people
Speaker 1: who are just mainlining the dumbest ship or just hopped
Speaker 1: up on this other narrative of like what life is,
Speaker 1: which is like I have immune system, therefore I'm good.
Speaker 1: What's what's community transmission? I don't know. Good, Look, just
Speaker 1: get away from me. I think that's really what's disheartening too.
Speaker 1: And then even just even the smallest things like wearing
Speaker 1: a mask, even those people are unvaccingly, well, what are
Speaker 1: I gonna do with all my freedom? Dude? We should
Speaker 1: we have to still keep doing this, because again, I
Speaker 1: think there's all there's also a split in people who
Speaker 1: think the pandemic is over. There even vaccinated people who
Speaker 1: think the pandemic is over just because they're vaccinated, And
Speaker 1: it's there's a lot many people on many different pages
Speaker 1: and I think some people have allowed them so like, well,
Speaker 1: I got vaccinated, so like what the folk join you
Speaker 1: to mask or whatever. It's like, that's not it's not that,
Speaker 1: it's that that's not the case. And then you still
Speaker 1: on the other side, do people like, oh, well if
Speaker 1: the if the vacs works and how can we need
Speaker 1: mess and if the mass doesn't work to help him?
Speaker 1: I'm like, please, I don't have time to go on
Speaker 1: your weird logic tour. But the fact remains that we
Speaker 1: have to look out. Well, some glasses work while you
Speaker 1: wear the hair. Alright, let's talk about mo Brooks real quick.
Speaker 1: In the January six failed insurrection, we we saw some
Speaker 1: truly harrowing testimony from Capitol police who received physical abuse,
Speaker 1: racist abuse in the case of one black Capital officer
Speaker 1: and many I mean his in his testimony. All the
Speaker 1: other officers were like one guy said he had never
Speaker 1: been called the N word in his life until that day,
Speaker 1: and I was like, wow, that's fucking wild. Yeah, But
Speaker 1: I don't know what's sad or that sentiment or I
Speaker 1: would have that that's so hard to like that that
Speaker 1: seems like such a remarkable thing. But I think, like
Speaker 1: that's so sad, And the saddest part is that I'm like, really, yeah,
Speaker 1: oh I thought America is way more racist, you know,
Speaker 1: like it's it's just a But again, this is what
Speaker 1: all everything that's coming to the surface in terms of
Speaker 1: what these people were thinking, what they were willing to do,
Speaker 1: and how they even look at things like law enforcement,
Speaker 1: because as we know, the Blue Lives Matter stuff didn't
Speaker 1: matter unless it was about, you know, supporting Trump. It
Speaker 1: was just all a device to hide behind the sanctity
Speaker 1: of law enforcement to sort of obscure your own racist
Speaker 1: a Yeah, I mean gal in Utah who happened to
Speaker 1: step on the flag and then we'll see you in
Speaker 1: a few years, right, right. The voicemail that was left
Speaker 1: for one of the like lead officers who like testified,
Speaker 1: that is just like the most hateful, vitriolic thing. But
Speaker 1: it's yeah, it's just interesting to like you can read
Speaker 1: the transcript of that anywhere and then compare that to
Speaker 1: like all the rhetoric around Blue Lettes Matter and all
Speaker 1: that bullshit. Yeah, yeah, because it didn't matter. It's you
Speaker 1: can look, you're either Trump or not, and then if
Speaker 1: you're not, fuck you you're a communist or whatever. You know,
Speaker 1: unsold assure there is. But Moe Brooks specifically, he was
Speaker 1: one of these Congress people who was very turned up
Speaker 1: on January six. He's somebody who spoke at the fucking
Speaker 1: you know, kickoff rally to get people as you know,
Speaker 1: screaming and adrenaline fueled as possible before marching on the Capitol.
Speaker 1: If you just if just just some of his words
Speaker 1: that Moebrook said, just you understand he said, today is
Speaker 1: the day American patriots start taking down names and kicking
Speaker 1: ass Now, our ancestors sacrifice their blood, their sweat, their tears,
Speaker 1: their fortunes, and sometimes their lives to give us their
Speaker 1: descendants in America. That is the greatest nation in world history.
Speaker 1: So I have a question for you. Are you willing
Speaker 1: to do the same. My answer is yes, Louder, are
Speaker 1: you willing to do what it takes to fight for America? Louder,
Speaker 1: will you fight for America? So this is what he
Speaker 1: was saying prior to all these people then going in
Speaker 1: just attacking law enforcement and whoever was in the way
Speaker 1: of of this election being certified. And there's another reason
Speaker 1: why Eric Swalwell and other and another member of Congress
Speaker 1: have sued him and Trump and Don Junior and Rudy
Speaker 1: for inciting this insurrection because they're saying, like, you know,
Speaker 1: this was you put me in harm's way, this is
Speaker 1: this is you're violating my civil rights to do all
Speaker 1: these things, and just like these are the damages that
Speaker 1: I am and I'm pursuing restitution for. And Moe Brooks
Speaker 1: has been dodging this lawsuit from Eric s waldwell like
Speaker 1: some character and fucking that opening scene in Pineapple Express
Speaker 1: when Seth Rogan is like doing fucking costume bits to
Speaker 1: like give somebody there you've been served. He he was
Speaker 1: dodging the summons, like the being served for like fucking weeks, okay,
Speaker 1: And like even the people were like, this is this
Speaker 1: is kind of impressed because like we know where he
Speaker 1: works and we still can't serve this guy. He finally
Speaker 1: got served, but even even while he was ducking it,
Speaker 1: he kept saying like, oh, that's fine. This lawsuits are
Speaker 1: relevant because I have immunity, and we're like, what is
Speaker 1: he talking about? So what he was saying was he
Speaker 1: believes in this very like narrow statute that because you know,
Speaker 1: if there's any kind of tort suit filed against a
Speaker 1: person working in the government that if they're working in
Speaker 1: their capacity as a you know, part of the federal government,
Speaker 1: that the government would have to represent them at trial.
Speaker 1: But you know, because he's claiming I was doing Congress stuff,
Speaker 1: so the government needs to step in. And then when
Speaker 1: people are like, well that's not true, what do you
Speaker 1: have to say? This is what he filed, he said.
Speaker 1: Brooks sought to encourage this is what his lawyers filed
Speaker 1: to say like no, no, it's it's all good. He
Speaker 1: wasn't as know, they have to tell you they're a
Speaker 1: cop if you ask them. It's like that that's a
Speaker 1: hippo violation if you ask me if I'm a cop,
Speaker 1: he said. Brooks sought to encourage the ellipse rally attendee
Speaker 1: to put the elections behind them, and in particular the
Speaker 1: preceding days to Georgia GOP Senate losses, and to inspire
Speaker 1: listeners to start focusing on the four elections which had
Speaker 1: already begun. So this is again, this is that was
Speaker 1: his defense. I was just no, I told him to
Speaker 1: get over, and what I was saying was like, we
Speaker 1: gotta focus on four. This is where this idiot didn't
Speaker 1: think this through by saying that he was focusing on
Speaker 1: those are election campaigns, so that means you are campaigning,
Speaker 1: which means that's not something the government is involved in.
Speaker 1: So you are out of luck, sir. Therefore you are
Speaker 1: going to have to get sued like a regular ass insurrectionist. Now, wow,
Speaker 1: what way to go? Way to go? They shouldn't sorry sir,
Speaker 1: But I mean this is kind of a lot of
Speaker 1: people are like, oh, well that maybe something will happen
Speaker 1: to this. Will somebody pay his legal bills? I don't
Speaker 1: know what will he say, what he'll pull? He turned
Speaker 1: this into another huge thing. But yeah, this is I
Speaker 1: don't know, there's slowly some things are kind of falling
Speaker 1: into place. Although I'm very cynical in terms of what
Speaker 1: how the subpoenas will actually compel people to appear for
Speaker 1: the January six commission in terms of people who are
Speaker 1: like fully up in it. But there you go. This
Speaker 1: is the short sightedness of these people. I love that
Speaker 1: it's the rule of law. People that don't understand any
Speaker 1: of the rules. And I'm pretty sure mode Books is
Speaker 1: a lawyer. It's a funny rhetoric to try to use
Speaker 1: when you don't give a ship about what amendments actually
Speaker 1: mean or say, or like how law is actually interact
Speaker 1: with each other among different areas and government levels, and
Speaker 1: what the difference between like a regulation and the law is,
Speaker 1: or like what a government says and what they're making you.
Speaker 1: COVID has been freedom, horrible, horrible freedom. Nobody made us
Speaker 1: wear a mask. We're free to. Nobody makes us good
Speaker 1: a vaccine, we are free to. That's it's flipping that backwards.
Speaker 1: So sad because we don't have the military, Like nobody's
Speaker 1: taking an election away from you. We had an election.
Speaker 1: It's just so sad. Yeah, And I think that's just
Speaker 1: sort of why that's been sort of like the laziness
Speaker 1: of these sort of like really conservative cynical campaigns is
Speaker 1: that they always just hide behind things like the law
Speaker 1: or you know, what culture is without acting because it's
Speaker 1: never really about it. Yeah, because it's just about halting progress. Yes, Yeah,
Speaker 1: with pretty with the little treason, just a little sense,
Speaker 1: just a little sensitive, zero calorie treason. The nation is
Speaker 1: having a very mild reaction to some treason. I'm not
Speaker 1: going to say that they're allergic, but they are a
Speaker 1: little sensitive. Have a committee in a way. I'm kind
Speaker 1: of I'm kind of surprised at how how light the
Speaker 1: reaction is to a little bit terrifying. It's surprised, It's
Speaker 1: definitely one word. The other is like shaken deeply to
Speaker 1: my core and unsettled about in your few Sure anybody
Speaker 1: remember the national boling? We don't, we got it was
Speaker 1: a whole moon. Oh man. Anyway, let's just stop the freeway, right.
Speaker 1: I just keep remembering things that just like keep happening, deeply,
Speaker 1: deeply unsettling. Anyway, how's everyone's morning, You have a great
Speaker 1: all right, let's take another quick break and we will
Speaker 1: be right back. And we're back, and before we get
Speaker 1: to streaming corner, let's talk really briefly about that's so pretty.
Speaker 1: Let's let's capture that and use it every time we
Speaker 1: go to stream, bottle it back to them. So there's
Speaker 1: a time honored tradition of fast food and junk food
Speaker 1: having an Olympic tie in. This year, I feel like
Speaker 1: we're a little light this year. Pizza Hut Japan is
Speaker 1: celebrating the Olympics with a Decathlon pizza, which includes ten
Speaker 1: different types of meats, including pepperoni, pulled pork, three types
Speaker 1: of bacon, bullhog pizza, and each ingredient contains a different
Speaker 1: quality according to the ad campaign, like stamina, toughness. I
Speaker 1: like meat that contains toughness. This is so Japanese, but uh,
Speaker 1: that is so. There's restaurants where like there's like just
Speaker 1: like stamina restaurants. Oh really like this will give you
Speaker 1: like energy, like certain certain like body parts or certain
Speaker 1: like meats are like good for your your stamina. And
Speaker 1: it's just funny because like a lot of people like it.
Speaker 1: It's like a good hook for me able to be like, yes,
Speaker 1: stamina because I'm overworked. I don't understand it. Anybody want
Speaker 1: to spend two hundred dollars of Catholic gratitude later, I'll
Speaker 1: see there, see you there? I am how what is
Speaker 1: the naming convention at Cafe Gratitude. It's like you order
Speaker 1: by the emotion that the food is supposed to make
Speaker 1: you feel. You might order happy, or you might order
Speaker 1: relax but it's like I am happy relaxation exactly. There's
Speaker 1: very It's where you take if you if your parents
Speaker 1: are visiting you in l a from out of town
Speaker 1: from the Midwest, say, and you want them to leave
Speaker 1: immediately the Cafe Gratitude world be so worried about you,
Speaker 1: yea go there. Honestly, it's kind of like, yeah, that's fine,
Speaker 1: that's fine. So this is kind of a long tradition
Speaker 1: that McDonald's has historically been a huge sponsor of the Olympics.
Speaker 1: The official sponsorship started in seventy six, but there's like
Speaker 1: a urban legend where they airlifted burgers to American athletes
Speaker 1: in nineteen sixty eight because the Olympics were in France
Speaker 1: and you can't get French fries there clearly, so they
Speaker 1: like delivered a bunch of of burgers and fries to
Speaker 1: Olympic athletes who missed their home cuisine, and that became
Speaker 1: like a thing that they that they were kind of
Speaker 1: known for and like to brag about. There's something on
Speaker 1: their website. It all started when we airlifted hamburgers to
Speaker 1: US athletes in nine. In nineteen eight four, they had
Speaker 1: the uh they were the lovable funk ups who offered
Speaker 1: a promotion for free food when the US team won
Speaker 1: a medal, except they didn't realize the Soviets were boycotting
Speaker 1: the games, which resulted in them like having to give
Speaker 1: away like free food for months, like they're they're just like,
Speaker 1: we're not getting any money for our food anymore because
Speaker 1: we just agreed to give it all away. But the
Speaker 1: worms started to turn in twenty twelve when they built
Speaker 1: the world's largest McDonald's and limp Bick not not Olympic
Speaker 1: village where the athletes all have sex. I think it
Speaker 1: was like Olympic Town or something where where like fans
Speaker 1: go and people are just pointing out like this is
Speaker 1: like having Kryptonite sponsor Superman. It's like the thing that
Speaker 1: these people completely abstain from their entire lives is sponsoring
Speaker 1: their athletic achievement. So after McDonald's stopped sponsoring because people
Speaker 1: were like, yeah, there's a global obesity crisis that you're
Speaker 1: contributing to, and then you're kind of whitewashing that by
Speaker 1: sponsoring Olympic athletes. Uh. Coke is still sponsored this year.
Speaker 1: Um yes uh. And Burger King you get a free
Speaker 1: whopper if you post a screenshot of an athlete biting
Speaker 1: their metal, which is so dumb. Chipotle has menus curated
Speaker 1: by athletes who have never eaten those meals, presumably um,
Speaker 1: and they're wrapping their burritos in gold foil this month,
Speaker 1: So that's sort of an update one like if you
Speaker 1: get the gold foil, do you get some ship like
Speaker 1: Willy Wonk or they're just saying, hey, this month is
Speaker 1: just gold foil. It's just this month is gold foil.
Speaker 1: But people like because of the gold foil of Willie
Speaker 1: Wonka and like how indelible that images. People were like,
Speaker 1: oh should I want like when they first started it,
Speaker 1: give me freeze, and then getting bad because Burrito factory,
Speaker 1: Mr Chipotle, He's gonna take me on a magic ride
Speaker 1: in this elevat. That's not a good I don't even
Speaker 1: want to know what you mean. The rooms are the yeah,
Speaker 1: the guad I have a lasting tortilla. Yeah, like fuzzy
Speaker 1: lifting walk I think, yeah. The gum I think the
Speaker 1: beans are the gum that you can never do. It
Speaker 1: is a flow meal. That gob stopper. The gob stopper
Speaker 1: is just the avocado pit yes yeah, yeah, yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: or like a bay leaf that people signing Chapelli food
Speaker 1: and then freak out about, like there's a leaf in
Speaker 1: my food because they be right. But it is, of
Speaker 1: course time for on a streaming corner super producer on
Speaker 1: a Hosie is joining us uh to tell us just
Speaker 1: broadly what she's been streaming, recommend some things. We're also
Speaker 1: going to check in on her most recent recommendation, which
Speaker 1: is we are Lady Parts on Peacock, which I think
Speaker 1: we've all watched at this point. Very good. Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I loved it. It was awesome. But Hi, an a
Speaker 1: welcome first. Let let me let you speak Hi. Yeah. Sorry.
Speaker 1: I was kind of nodding off for a second because
Speaker 1: I had like a moment of peace while you guys
Speaker 1: were talking, and then I I within seconds, I was
Speaker 1: like falling into a deep sleep. I was one of
Speaker 1: those who are yelling at off screen. My dog was
Speaker 1: barking at the FedEx delivery guy out the window, and
Speaker 1: I was trying to be like going five the way
Speaker 1: you're talking. I was like, I don't know if that's
Speaker 1: a human or no. He you have to really, because
Speaker 1: he's so used to being like coddled, because he's one
Speaker 1: of those cute, little white, fluffy dogs that like when
Speaker 1: you really want because he knows he's cute, when you
Speaker 1: really want him to shut he's God damn mouth. You
Speaker 1: have to go hard. Just tell him and the FedEx
Speaker 1: guy to get a room. Is that how you? No? No,
Speaker 1: the FedEx guy didn't like out to the door. He
Speaker 1: can see him outside the window, so he knows he's
Speaker 1: coming into the building, so he he acts as like
Speaker 1: the We call him the sheriff. He's out here just
Speaker 1: like barking at anyone who walks by our building. Now,
Speaker 1: will that be a streaming show coming soon? No? But
Speaker 1: you know what. We also used to call one of
Speaker 1: my aunts the sheriff because she was just I mean,
Speaker 1: we still call her that. She's still alive, my dad's sister,
Speaker 1: because she's such a hard ass. And it's funny because
Speaker 1: I'd always be like, God, he's got the same personality,
Speaker 1: and that just slowly became like because she gets away
Speaker 1: with a lot. But she God, when she's mean, she's mean.
Speaker 1: You know. So, I have a confession to make. I
Speaker 1: got two episode three of We Are Lady Parts, but
Speaker 1: I got in Yeah, sorry, sorry, had to do it.
Speaker 1: Didn't finish it, but I've I've enjoyed every single moment
Speaker 1: of it. And I just attack he's boarding up plane's
Speaker 1: actually projecting across the Pacific. But yeah, I I really
Speaker 1: I remember when you first brought it up you're like,
Speaker 1: you have to watch the show. It's nailing everything. It's
Speaker 1: so funny, like I'm dying at all the jokes. And
Speaker 1: I at first I was like, Okay, I love when
Speaker 1: you come out the gates with like your stream of
Speaker 1: like praise for a show, because that just shows how
Speaker 1: much energy, Like I can just feel you actually being
Speaker 1: like I love this thing. And then when I watched it,
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, yeah, this is I can I exactly
Speaker 1: see what was so exciting to you to watch it.
Speaker 1: But even for me, I'm just like it's a has
Speaker 1: I really I'm really liking the show. It has like
Speaker 1: heart to it, and it's also has this edge to
Speaker 1: it that I really like. And I think the balance
Speaker 1: of like this sort of real I don't know, I
Speaker 1: mean culturally I'm living outside of Muslim culture, but from
Speaker 1: what I know sort of passively, I feel like there's
Speaker 1: a really interesting commentary about it while also not being disrespectful,
Speaker 1: but also like really like representing this like our our
Speaker 1: generation and sort of like the new norms that we're
Speaker 1: pushing against or trying to have for ourselves. But yes,
Speaker 1: first one, how could you disrespect me in such a
Speaker 1: way to nothing streaming corner staff in Hamilton's Crash. Okay
Speaker 1: that I'm that's taken up, not talking about it. We're
Speaker 1: focusing on the racing and not the drama. Okay, like
Speaker 1: we're staff and keeps saying, trying to act like he's
Speaker 1: not the angriest he's ever been in his life, shout
Speaker 1: out Silverstone. Okay. So yes, this show. Have you seen
Speaker 1: We Are Lady Parts. It's been highly recommended and it
Speaker 1: is on my shirt list and no, but I'm really
Speaker 1: glad to hear the recommendation again. Let me tell you
Speaker 1: you you would love it, kaitl. I think you would.
Speaker 1: You would love it specifically because I see myself in
Speaker 1: you a lot in the sense that we're both Persian women.
Speaker 1: Just joking but no, you're a barrier kid, you get it.
Speaker 1: But I mean, it's on, it takes place in the UK,
Speaker 1: it's in London. But I think the thing that really
Speaker 1: speaks to me is that this I mean, and I
Speaker 1: might sound completely off my rocker if you will, but
Speaker 1: it's the anger these girls have within them that really
Speaker 1: resonates to me, Like they go from there's so many
Speaker 1: view of the show for someone who says it's a
Speaker 1: It's a show about a all girl Muslim punk band
Speaker 1: in the UK and they're basically the main punk band,
Speaker 1: which is called We Are Lady Parts, is recruiting a
Speaker 1: new lead guitarist and they find this one girl who
Speaker 1: is doesn't like to perform, you know, is a great
Speaker 1: guitar player, just another Muslim woman and hilarity and sus
Speaker 1: how they kind of come together and find their place
Speaker 1: and become this amazing band. And the I mean, the
Speaker 1: music budget alone for this movie incredible. They must have
Speaker 1: been like everyone gets two dollars for showing up because
Speaker 1: all the money is going to the music because they
Speaker 1: can they pull the things that music that you're like,
Speaker 1: holy shit, yes, you know, the best cover of Creep
Speaker 1: since Dave Chappelle took the stage. That seems specifically Miles,
Speaker 1: I don't think you've gotten there yet. That scene sent me.
Speaker 1: It's just a woman in a huge job having an
Speaker 1: existential crisis and being like one of those like float
Speaker 1: scenes where they're clearly not walking but they're moving through
Speaker 1: a room singing. I mean, unbelievable work on this show.
Speaker 1: But I mean I think the real thing that resonates
Speaker 1: me is like you have all these Muslim women who
Speaker 1: are not fighting against their religion. They're all fully Muslim.
Speaker 1: They pray, they respect the religion, they respect their families,
Speaker 1: you know, but they all have this anger of being
Speaker 1: raised in these immigrant families, not feeling understood, feeling pushed
Speaker 1: away for who they are, and and I feel that
Speaker 1: so hard because they will be like one scene where
Speaker 1: they're all scream singing system of a down in a
Speaker 1: car and then cut to prayer, cut to talking to family,
Speaker 1: you know, like it's like it's all this, it's not
Speaker 1: so you know. It shows like, you know, as like
Speaker 1: children of immigrants, especially Middle Eastern Immerrants and personally growing
Speaker 1: up as like a little Muslim Iranian kid in the
Speaker 1: big area, like I had many the multitudes. You know,
Speaker 1: we all have multitudes and there we have so many
Speaker 1: interests and you can't be put in a box. And
Speaker 1: I think this show shows that so well of like
Speaker 1: these girls who just are like fuck the system, and
Speaker 1: then they're like gotta go pray, you know, like because
Speaker 1: you're like that's I I was raised in that. And
Speaker 1: and it also shows that the battle of people being
Speaker 1: like are you disrespecting your religion and them trying to
Speaker 1: express like no, I'm at actually not. I don't like
Speaker 1: we're trying to explain or trying to understand why you
Speaker 1: see what we're doing as like pushing Islam away when
Speaker 1: it's actually the opposite. We're actually embracing it in a
Speaker 1: way that we've created to be our own. So I
Speaker 1: don't know. There's many layers, and I think it's such
Speaker 1: a great show and it's so funny. In the music man,
Speaker 1: it really was like me growing up, being like I
Speaker 1: want to be in a band and be badass, but
Speaker 1: my parents made me play the chill Your blood is
Speaker 1: your Friend. I thought of you Anna with that scene
Speaker 1: where Bisma is selling her comic books about the menstrual
Speaker 1: cycle turning these women into flood their stea killers, and
Speaker 1: like those two school girls are like you it's gross,
Speaker 1: and she's like, no, sisters, the blood is okay, don't
Speaker 1: hate your body. Said blood is your friend. They leave.
Speaker 1: It's like in the middle of like a street markets.
Speaker 1: All the characters are so great, like the drummer, how
Speaker 1: angry the drummer specifically is who I relate to the most.
Speaker 1: She's so bad. Ask oh, I love it and I
Speaker 1: will always be In the debt of the show for
Speaker 1: all the reasons you talked about. It was a great
Speaker 1: show and also got me to sign up for Peacock
Speaker 1: and got me to watch Girls five EVA, which is
Speaker 1: another one of my favorite shows that I've seen in
Speaker 1: a long time. That's dope, and you watched that too.
Speaker 1: You recommended that to me. I don't really taking culture
Speaker 1: that Anna hasn't recommended to me. Yeah that's yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: just like but it doesn't it is she working with it? No, No,
Speaker 1: I wasn't working with it anyway. No, I didn't think
Speaker 1: that way. But yeah, this show, I mean, even for
Speaker 1: for anybody who was just being like, okay, I'll check
Speaker 1: it out. If you've ever played in a band, if
Speaker 1: you like music, if you've ever felt like a black
Speaker 1: sheep in your family, or you didn't fit in culturally
Speaker 1: in any culture. That's I think that's what sort of
Speaker 1: the real interesting appeal of this show. Despite it being
Speaker 1: very specific to these Muslim women that are living in
Speaker 1: the UK, there's still this element that is just so universal,
Speaker 1: And I think that's what's really the brilliance in it,
Speaker 1: is like you can immediately like oh yeah, like I
Speaker 1: I despite the specifics being different, I can totally understand
Speaker 1: like this fucking just pursuit of wanting to do like
Speaker 1: achieve your dreams and even if you've got to do
Speaker 1: a little light manipulation to get there, in the in
Speaker 1: the name of a great comedy, you'll do it. And
Speaker 1: the writing is just like I really love all the
Speaker 1: characters and how sort of specific they are and how
Speaker 1: they all have like their own personalities that are like
Speaker 1: they're just really well written to. Yeah, each character has
Speaker 1: its own thing, like their own personality you can relate to.
Speaker 1: They're not all like just angry muslimoman like you know.
Speaker 1: The main character who they recruit is this very soft spoken,
Speaker 1: quiet girl who's like in a PhD program to be
Speaker 1: like a biologist and like working on an arranged marriage,
Speaker 1: and like she's like just an amazing guitar player. But
Speaker 1: then like if she's on stage performing, she automatically like
Speaker 1: ships and vomits at the same like it's like all
Speaker 1: this stuff where you're so my nervous disposition makes me
Speaker 1: prone to vomiting and diarrhea whatever, as she says multiple times.
Speaker 1: But then it's also like cut to her like in
Speaker 1: a meeting with another family for a potential arranged marriage
Speaker 1: and her just really trying to be like okay, I
Speaker 1: like his eyes, okay, like trying to make it happen,
Speaker 1: to make it hard. Yeah, And it's just so sweet.
Speaker 1: And she's pulled between two different communities, like the really
Speaker 1: perfect Muslim girl community where you have everything together and
Speaker 1: you're getting married and I'm having kids, you know, and
Speaker 1: then this like grungy rock band world where she's like
Speaker 1: I and when she like when she's solos, you can
Speaker 1: just see it like she fucking goes somewhere that you're like,
Speaker 1: that's where she's being her truest self, you know, like,
Speaker 1: and that's I mean, everyone's just like, dude, what who
Speaker 1: are you? And that's like I think, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think it's just a really great, really well done
Speaker 1: for media representation, a little Middle Eastern girls heavywhere it's
Speaker 1: still got a Honda right on ron Tomatoes. I mean,
Speaker 1: if that's not enough, if that's not enough, I mean
Speaker 1: rotn Tomatoes ever, Oh my god? What what what is
Speaker 1: our assignment? Should we choose to accept? For for the
Speaker 1: next on a streaming corner? Should you choose to accept?
Speaker 1: I don't know. Myles only watched half of it. He
Speaker 1: just got away with it. Oh, there's no choice here.
Speaker 1: And that cackle was like top grade. I can't even
Speaker 1: stand it. That that was. That was literally incredible. That
Speaker 1: was like one take, we got it. It's like the
Speaker 1: Will Hill scream. They just loop it over moved. That
Speaker 1: was if there was an audio button in a dictionary
Speaker 1: next to cackle. You just kneeling. I can tell you
Speaker 1: weren't trying to blow my mind, and you did. That's fine.
Speaker 1: Jack and Miles think they have any control cackle. It's
Speaker 1: funny because They're like, this is what we're doing, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, it's not it's not sorry, you'll do as
Speaker 1: I know. We wanted to call it something different, and
Speaker 1: it's like it should be The Daily Guy. All right, okay,
Speaker 1: well Jack, do you actually remember the naming of that?
Speaker 1: Jack keepping like, I want to do a show where
Speaker 1: it's just like The Daily Zeke guys, and then I'd
Speaker 1: be like, what about tennis Ball. We'd be like, just
Speaker 1: call it the fucking Daily Side guys. Just call it that.
Speaker 1: You keep saying it, just call it that. Tennis ball
Speaker 1: is kind of cool. There was brought up tennis ball.
Speaker 1: Do you actually remember the name for the show okay,
Speaker 1: as long as it's not like T N M, S BLL.
Speaker 1: I think we're good. As long as you're putting all
Speaker 1: the valves in tennis ball. I just like tennis. I think,
Speaker 1: So what's next? I actually don't have something next just yet.
Speaker 1: I'll give you, guys. The thing is, I really want
Speaker 1: to recommend The White Lotus, which I've been really enjoying
Speaker 1: HBO Max, But there's only three episodes out and I
Speaker 1: don't fully know how long this season is. I mean,

Speaker 1: But give me, give me a week and I'll come
Speaker 1: through with the new recommendation. Because let's be real, I
Speaker 1: you know what I really want to recommend as the
