Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to season episode two. After
Speaker 1: dailies Like Guys production by Heart Radio, this is a
Speaker 1: podcast where we take a deep dive into America's share consciousness.
Speaker 1: It is Tuesday, June. My name is Jack O'Brien, a
Speaker 1: k A. Let's go McKay feiser courtesy of NS Jensen,
Speaker 1: and I'm thrilled to be joined as always by my
Speaker 1: co host, Mr Miles gro Right. Stop download the pot there,
Speaker 1: listen mouths back with political tension and cold brew grabs.
Speaker 1: Ahold of me tightly putting out shows both daily and nightly.
Speaker 1: The minute that we stopped, Yo, y'all know, I'll turn
Speaker 1: off my mic and I smoke t D and Z.
Speaker 1: We like to talk about scandals. Loftus on stage drinking
Speaker 1: Mike's by the handle, Jack and is in lost fare
Speaker 1: room screaming like his brain is poison too much. Soon. Okay,
Speaker 1: there's more verses, but I had to get that last
Speaker 1: part out because you're no longer in this fare room.
Speaker 1: Shout out. They let me out to water chest Nuts
Speaker 1: on the discord or Walter chest Nut on the Twitter.
Speaker 1: As I sees you, sir, thank you for that vanilla
Speaker 1: ice inspired a Kay who is that from Water Chestnuts
Speaker 1: Water checking up Walter, Walter Walter. I don't know, aren't you.
Speaker 1: I think the person is like h works on ships
Speaker 1: or something from what I remember anecdotally from my like
Speaker 1: my vault like memory. Yeah, in the seventeenth century ship
Speaker 1: from Walter Chess. Yes, I have been. I'm out of
Speaker 1: the media closet. It's like the scene I've just arrived
Speaker 1: at Hogwarts from my time living under the stairs in
Speaker 1: this Harry Potter analogy. Is that a good thing where
Speaker 1: you go right, finally right, I'm not Yeah, but I
Speaker 1: don't wizard Harry. That's that's that part. Nobody asked me that.
Speaker 1: But I've just decided that this UFO report is by
Speaker 1: induction into the wizarding world of the Aliens space spacecraft.
Speaker 1: Even though I was in a media closet, that was
Speaker 1: by decision. My stay with my in laws was lovely.
Speaker 1: Although I was saying before we recorded, I did hear
Speaker 1: my mother in law say to my wife and Jackson
Speaker 1: his studio, Uh, But I think she was just responding
Speaker 1: to the fact that it was a very humble, you know,
Speaker 1: approximation of it. Yeah. I like more that she's like
Speaker 1: just covered in rubies and diamonds, and she's like has
Speaker 1: her own like podcasting networks, and he's in his studio. Yeah,
Speaker 1: shouting into a can as you say, well, Miles, we
Speaker 1: are thrilled to be joined in our third seat by
Speaker 1: the brilliant and talented poet and podcaster behind the fascinating
Speaker 1: American Hysteria podcast, which takes a deep dive into the
Speaker 1: fantastical thinking and irrational fears of Americans through the lens
Speaker 1: of moral panics, urban legends, and conspiracy theories. Please welcome,
Speaker 1: Chelsea Weber. You know I'm always happy to be here.
Speaker 1: I like something. We're always so happy to see you.
Speaker 1: I'm always thrilled when I look on the lineup see
Speaker 1: that you are coming up, and then you happy to
Speaker 1: be here on the day after the release of the
Speaker 1: UFO report by the Pentagon. Yes, as a skeptic, I'm
Speaker 1: curious to hear you know what what your thoughts are.
Speaker 1: I won't say as a skeptic, as somebody who specializes in,
Speaker 1: you know, American delusions, right, I call myself a flexible skeptic.
Speaker 1: I think that's a nice turn to get to get. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: flexic It sounds like like a failed toy, like a
Speaker 1: camping thing for like, hey, the flex stick. Sorry, what
Speaker 1: is it? Uh? I never mind, it's not for toy,
Speaker 1: it's not for kids. But I find it just as
Speaker 1: interesting to think about all these sightings from the perspective
Speaker 1: of if it is hysteria, like what does it say
Speaker 1: about us? Right? Definitely, Yeah, And we can talk a
Speaker 1: little about that because that happened in the forties and
Speaker 1: that's really interesting kind of our first big UFO. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I will say, I'm not I'm not the person to
Speaker 1: ask you if if like these things have been like
Speaker 1: perfectly explained by a skeptic, I'm not the person asked
Speaker 1: because I just found out all the Roswell ship was
Speaker 1: apparently explained by the Air Force. They dropped a report
Speaker 1: and they were like, yeah, no, that was like a
Speaker 1: spy balloon that we were working on, Like we told
Speaker 1: you all that and everybody laughed at us. Anyways, we're
Speaker 1: gonna get to that as well as we're going to
Speaker 1: talk about just the ongoing attempts to woo American workers
Speaker 1: back into the workforce following the pandemic. We are going
Speaker 1: to talk about some loser named Miles things he can
Speaker 1: save us from Trump. Hey, let me let me Okay,
Speaker 1: that's a real aggressive way to give me a moment
Speaker 1: to explain how we can bring democracy about. On truck,
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about some good news in the vaccination game,
Speaker 1: assuming you believe in vaccinations. We're going to talk about
Speaker 1: the Pentagon report. And we will of course get to
Speaker 1: on a Hosnier's on a streaming corner stream corner to
Speaker 1: talk about Starstruck and figure out what we're gonna watch next.
Speaker 1: All of that plentymore. But first, Chelsea, we like to
Speaker 1: ask our guest, what is something from your search history?
Speaker 1: All right? So piss profits? Have you guys ever heard
Speaker 1: of piss profits? Because you like this? All right? So
Speaker 1: is it first? Yes? About urine profit? Alright? Yeah. So
Speaker 1: we did our most recent episode US called Gender Revealed Parties.
Speaker 1: So we really dove into, you know, all of the
Speaker 1: these events that are causing wildfires and deaths and explosions,
Speaker 1: and uh, we wanted to figure out why things had
Speaker 1: amped up to this level. So we on American Hister
Speaker 1: Area we always try to go back to some you know,
Speaker 1: very root moments and kind of show how things have
Speaker 1: always been the same and so right, the sonogram changed
Speaker 1: the game of of gender for babies, right, or of
Speaker 1: course biological sex. So before sonograms, it was pretty much
Speaker 1: all guessing, right or you know, in the Middle Ages,
Speaker 1: it was all about psychic types of folks coming and
Speaker 1: trying to determine biological sex because the people were always
Speaker 1: obsessed with kind of like the mystery of pregnancy. And
Speaker 1: that's what we kept coming back to in the episode
Speaker 1: because we wanted to go deeper than that. It's fucked
Speaker 1: up and gender essentialists and all, like, we know that,
Speaker 1: So we wanted to figure out more about like what
Speaker 1: what is the history of this? And so in the
Speaker 1: Middle Ages, piss profits and they were called this in
Speaker 1: the Middle Ages, which is wonderful. And so they had
Speaker 1: many different ways of kind of examining a woman's urine
Speaker 1: to try to figure out if she was pregnant and
Speaker 1: then be what the sex of the baby was. So
Speaker 1: they would do things like they would mix it with
Speaker 1: wine to like see how it interacted with the wine.
Speaker 1: They would, you know, smell it, they taste it. They
Speaker 1: would One of the things they like to do was
Speaker 1: burn a ribbon that was soaked in urine to see
Speaker 1: if the woman gagged at the smell of the urine. Uh,
Speaker 1: they would like read the bubbles, which is what it
Speaker 1: sounds like. They're most successful way of doing this is
Speaker 1: they would they would have the pregnant woman p in
Speaker 1: um barley sprouts and a bag of wheat or sorry,
Speaker 1: a bag of barley and a bag of wheat, and
Speaker 1: whicheverone sprouted first would determine the biological sex. So anyway,
Speaker 1: they were able to later kind of applicate this experiment
Speaker 1: in the you know, second half of the twentieth century,
Speaker 1: and it was true that in this study women who
Speaker 1: were pregnant, it actually showed that whatever, for whatever reason
Speaker 1: they think, maybe estrogen or something like the up to
Speaker 1: estrogen level actually did make these things sprout. So it
Speaker 1: is this really interesting, bizarre thing that I went down
Speaker 1: into of this world of how we once you know,
Speaker 1: we've just so obsessed with the sex of the baby,
Speaker 1: and and a lot of that we kind of found
Speaker 1: was because if you're living in a world where gender
Speaker 1: expression matches biological sex, like you know, unfortunately it does
Speaker 1: in many most cases in America, then actually like divining
Speaker 1: the gender of the child is going to kind of
Speaker 1: tell you, like you can divine their future a little bit,
Speaker 1: because if you know, I'm gonna have a boy, you
Speaker 1: can sort of for the first time imagine this baby's life, right,
Speaker 1: So I think the really interesting. So, yeah, piss profits
Speaker 1: is my answer. This is the second time in less
Speaker 1: than twenty four hours that somebody has extolled the virtues
Speaker 1: of dark ages piss science to me. Yeah. Well, so
Speaker 1: the podcast it was a little weird. So the last
Speaker 1: podcast on the left, I was just listening to this today. Yeah,
Speaker 1: such a good series. It's good. Yeah. So they're doing
Speaker 1: a series on the plague the Black Death, and they
Speaker 1: opened the most recent episode with just looking at like
Speaker 1: the state of medical science at the time, and they
Speaker 1: it was interesting because they were like, actually, like you know,
Speaker 1: we have this sense that they would just you know,
Speaker 1: burn a baby bird and like based on the direction
Speaker 1: the smoke went, like that would tell you, you know,
Speaker 1: what the treatment should be. But they had like there
Speaker 1: was a famous experiment where like the Duke of some
Speaker 1: country or another in Europe tried to trick a piss
Speaker 1: profit by using the urine of a pregnant woman and
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, this is my urine, what do you
Speaker 1: what do you see for me? And they were like, well, congratulations,
Speaker 1: you're going to give birth in a couple of months.
Speaker 1: Such a good story. Yeah, which hopefully it's true. I
Speaker 1: believe everything that I hear from the Dark Ages, Yeah,
Speaker 1: everything from up but yeah, piss science and then you
Speaker 1: know that's still popular. Yeah, and then astrology took over
Speaker 1: and that was it. So yeah, astrology and piss science
Speaker 1: were the two things that they used a lot of
Speaker 1: in the Middle Ages, and piss has held on. We
Speaker 1: still when piss was king wait, and they called it
Speaker 1: pissed back then in the even the parlance of those times.
Speaker 1: One of these old that's kind of storied history. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, funk is a great like percussive word
Speaker 1: that is just like powerful in your mouth, no matter
Speaker 1: and like piss, yes, und of piss. They're very Anglo saxon.
Speaker 1: Just Yeah. Something I love too is that I feel
Speaker 1: as I feel like this is true that the piss
Speaker 1: profits were sort of like a faux paw by the
Speaker 1: time astrology came, like they were like, oh, those are
Speaker 1: really stupid people who are superstitious, and we are the
Speaker 1: real scientists because we're studying the planet, you know, and
Speaker 1: it's just it's weird to think about that. My cousin Frank,
Speaker 1: he's just into piss play. I'm sorry. Yeah, but the
Speaker 1: thing that's blowing my mind is that they're like, let's
Speaker 1: try the experiment now, and those scientists has been like, yeah, right,
Speaker 1: I mean there's must be something to it. I don't
Speaker 1: know or not. Well, you're there's people still have such
Speaker 1: like you know, because I remember, like in the late
Speaker 1: eighties and stuff, people talking about drinking their pists and
Speaker 1: ship and people still be trying to drink their pea
Speaker 1: and for all the whatever, I don't know, the properties
Speaker 1: probably know what you're saying, Miles, and let me just
Speaker 1: stop your right there, don't try it. I used that
Speaker 1: as an advertisement to be like, maybe I should give
Speaker 1: this thing a shot. It's not what it's advertised as
Speaker 1: at all. It's not as good as you well, it's
Speaker 1: funny even though you you protest now when I actually
Speaker 1: very directly, can you get sick from drinking your own
Speaker 1: You're like not, you're good. You're good, You're good. And
Speaker 1: trust me, you can drink a lot. You can drink
Speaker 1: all of it. Actually, anyone in your family. It's safe.
Speaker 1: What so we knew we wanted to have two kids,
Speaker 1: and we were, you know, really curious what our second babies,
Speaker 1: you know, if it was gonna be a boy or
Speaker 1: a girl. And we got so much like pseudo science
Speaker 1: from people. There was like the number of folds and
Speaker 1: your current baby's thighs would tell you whether you're gonna
Speaker 1: have a boy or girl. There's like this entire from
Speaker 1: the Middle Ages. Yeah, there's this entire chart that they're like, no,
Speaker 1: it's actually accurate, but it's based on like complete nonsense,
Speaker 1: and like I had like multiple like learned people swear
Speaker 1: by it, like you know, this looks like a chart
Speaker 1: of like anti bella, anti bell and physiognomy, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's my favorite. Was baby nurse told us that she
Speaker 1: like held a medallion over our son and like let
Speaker 1: it spin a number of times, and she was like,
Speaker 1: this works every time you guys are gonna have a girl.
Speaker 1: It works every time, except sometimes it's the opposite. Like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: that just means it doesn't work on wait and if
Speaker 1: it's if we're dealing in like brutal binaries, then yeah, sure,
Speaker 1: I guess I got one for you, guys. I got
Speaker 1: one for you. Modern piss profit sort of urban legend
Speaker 1: have you guys heard did anyone tell you about the
Speaker 1: drain oh test? This is so scary. So this is
Speaker 1: a really popular like I'm going to call it method
Speaker 1: of divination because that's how we think about these things.
Speaker 1: And basically, the woman peas in a bunch of drain
Speaker 1: oh and you mix it together and if it turns green,
Speaker 1: it's a girl, and if it's blue, it's a boy.
Speaker 1: And people do this and they should not do this.
Speaker 1: It seems such Yeah, it's like how a pregnant woman
Speaker 1: like combine urine with the harshest chemical and and let's
Speaker 1: stand over it and just breathe it in and create
Speaker 1: new new dangerous chemical compounds and then standardized. But it
Speaker 1: just shows that we like need these rituals and we're
Speaker 1: we just want to know something about this infants future.
Speaker 1: So you know, it's not all horrible. It's just humans
Speaker 1: are fucking just like a place would like happiness reveals
Speaker 1: and then every time you say yeah and then everyone
Speaker 1: feels good. Right, Yeah, I was gonna say that would
Speaker 1: suck if sometimes they were a bummer. They're like this
Speaker 1: kid is going to be a fucking like, oh you
Speaker 1: and just no explosions in dry field yeah, I was
Speaker 1: gonna say every single thing that we've discussed is better
Speaker 1: than like the modern if you instead you're going to
Speaker 1: like shoot an explosive. Yeah, I mean not a lot
Speaker 1: of times. But you know, I think the current method
Speaker 1: of divination is usually like nineties something percent right, but
Speaker 1: it's not It's not a hundred. And I've known people
Speaker 1: who like had everything painted and ship based on what
Speaker 1: they thought was going to happen, and then the baby
Speaker 1: was not what they were That's that's the university, you know.
Speaker 1: Don't be so don't give a yeah, don't be weird.
Speaker 1: What is something you think is well? You know, I'm
Speaker 1: not adjusting to post pandemic life well, and I'm feeling
Speaker 1: very like seeing people is hard, even people that I love,
Speaker 1: you know, And so I'm feeling like I don't actually
Speaker 1: think this, but my feeling is, you know, going out
Speaker 1: and seeing people and is overrated. And I've become very
Speaker 1: much like an animal person, which is weird. I wasn't
Speaker 1: really like I love nature and everything, but now I'm like,
Speaker 1: I get all my drama from animals. Right, So I
Speaker 1: go on. I get up every morning and go on
Speaker 1: my special walk at seven o'clock and I'm telling you
Speaker 1: it's like the other day I was at my my
Speaker 1: wetland and there was these, you know, a crow attacking
Speaker 1: a nest of eggs and just an army of these
Speaker 1: little birds with red wings, just the fucking fucking this
Speaker 1: crow up. And you know, the other day I saw
Speaker 1: an eagle on a football field just tearing apart of seagull, right,
Speaker 1: just like eating of sea goal, just ripping its guts out.
Speaker 1: He saw it again like a couple of weeks later,
Speaker 1: and I just feel like I'm getting a lot of
Speaker 1: um what I need from. I saw some ospreys just
Speaker 1: diving and eating fish. You know, it's badass. And then
Speaker 1: I did the sound that I didn't know what it was,
Speaker 1: and it was a full frog. And you know, I'm
Speaker 1: just like very happy there. And I feel like the
Speaker 1: rest of my old life feels overrated when I can
Speaker 1: just like we're talking and get back into it and
Speaker 1: talking to people and just sort of like catching up
Speaker 1: and things like that and just being like, yeah, listen,
Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, I saw the same eagle like
Speaker 1: evisceerate these right. I spent like a month and a
Speaker 1: half taken care of this abandoned rabbit that someone dropped
Speaker 1: off on Easter. You know how people do that, They
Speaker 1: get a rabbit for Easter and then they oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a big thing. People will just get like a
Speaker 1: one day rabbit pet and then let it loose a park.
Speaker 1: And that's what happened to this gigantic rabbit. And you know,
Speaker 1: I formed this relationship with this rabbit and I would
Speaker 1: bring it water every day and finally it let me
Speaker 1: touch it, like I worked up to it. But now
Speaker 1: it disappeared, so maybe it might have died. Probably it
Speaker 1: was a big rabbit. It didn't disappear right when you
Speaker 1: touched it, right, because that would have been Yeah, it
Speaker 1: was like when I can't survive after yeah, no, no, yeah.
Speaker 1: Two of the things I can vouch for in your story.
Speaker 1: Bullfrog sound weird. Well. In our household, someone stepped on
Speaker 1: a bullfrog is what we say after we fart. But also, yeah,
Speaker 1: my wife and I had an experience where we were
Speaker 1: like walking around this pond very late at night, and
Speaker 1: we just kept going up and back, up and back
Speaker 1: because the frogs, like when you walked with them five
Speaker 1: feet of it would like go silent and you walk
Speaker 1: away and they would just go back to like like
Speaker 1: it was just like this really loud mating season and
Speaker 1: then one time we walked up to it and they
Speaker 1: all went silent. But then it was like one of
Speaker 1: the bullfrogs let out like a little tiny fart. It
Speaker 1: was like they were all like holding their breath and
Speaker 1: one of them like couldn't do it, and You're like,
Speaker 1: got your ass, You're coming with me. We don't need people,
Speaker 1: look at all. We have the aerial battles between birds
Speaker 1: of prep like crows and then like a whole like
Speaker 1: fleet of smaller birds like chasing the crow when it
Speaker 1: takes a baby, or like yeah, I mean that's what
Speaker 1: like aerial battles in World War two look like they're
Speaker 1: like dive bombing and just swooping in and out. It's
Speaker 1: pretty wild. So we can replace animals of everything. Yeah, exactly. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the important thing to learn. What is something that
Speaker 1: you think is underrated? Chelsea? Well, here's the opposite thing
Speaker 1: to just said, which is I can't stop paying attention
Speaker 1: to fucking Jake and Logan Paul's boxing careers. If you
Speaker 1: paid any attention, it's not because I support it, it's
Speaker 1: just I just never was into boxing and I have
Speaker 1: to say they brought me in because I can't look
Speaker 1: away from just how fucking insane it is and how
Speaker 1: how it just seems so set up. And I don't know,
Speaker 1: I've just really been enjoying it since I saw The
Speaker 1: first one I saw was the Thriller Fight Club, where
Speaker 1: it was like Snoop and Pete Davidson hosted it. Did
Speaker 1: you guys watch that? No? Not? Oh man, they were
Speaker 1: just rolling blunts the entire time, and it just seemed
Speaker 1: like totally set up. I don't know what it is
Speaker 1: about it, but I can't. I want to start boxing now.
Speaker 1: I don't know why. And I apologize to America for
Speaker 1: my interest in support, but I have not paid pay
Speaker 1: per view. I've always illegally Yeah oh yeah, yeah you can't.
Speaker 1: You don't want, you don't want to contribute to the
Speaker 1: new celebrity races and then Aaron Carter, I could take
Speaker 1: away from Aaron Carter's bouncy ass like jumping around that guy.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys talked about that, did you not?
Speaker 1: I don't think we did. I don't because I watched it.
Speaker 1: I got so bummed out. It was so bad. Did
Speaker 1: he win? He also had a good foot and a
Speaker 1: half on the it was just like an insane choice.
Speaker 1: It's just and then and Paul fought Floyd Mayweather. It's
Speaker 1: just I can't look away from it and figured it out.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I should say that it's maybe
Speaker 1: it's irresponsible to say that it's underrated, but I think
Speaker 1: I just needed to come out and tell someone I don't.
Speaker 1: I think we're not really talking about how much attention
Speaker 1: it captures, how much for something that isn't really of
Speaker 1: something to be interested in on the merit of sport.
Speaker 1: They're not good at boxing. I really think it's this
Speaker 1: like this black white binary that they like keep it
Speaker 1: because he's not fighting other white guys like he's fighting
Speaker 1: they're fighting, you know Mayweather. I know he's like he
Speaker 1: wants to fight Canello, which was ridiculous. But you know,
Speaker 1: there's like these things that I think get a lot
Speaker 1: of people going to and I think for me, I
Speaker 1: really watched that Maye where they're finally beat his ass
Speaker 1: like it wasn't for like this will be a good
Speaker 1: boxing match. It's like, I hate this guy. It's a
Speaker 1: better boxer, do your worst. It's just a cultural phenomenon
Speaker 1: that I can't That's how I see it. It's just
Speaker 1: how is this happening? And how and and just the
Speaker 1: audacity of Logan Paul fighting Floyd Mayweather and how they're
Speaker 1: all they're just all terrible and yet they have you know,
Speaker 1: and the one the one thing is Pete Davidson did
Speaker 1: go up to Jake Paul live because it's all live,
Speaker 1: which I love a live event, and you know, he
Speaker 1: was just he just directly was like, yeah, so what
Speaker 1: about these sexual assault allegations against you? And they beated
Speaker 1: it out and Jake Paul just starts like being like,
Speaker 1: hey man, don't like and you know, it's just like
Speaker 1: I just felt like from start to finish it was
Speaker 1: just this like completely insane cultural event. There were just
Speaker 1: so many musical guests and Snoop Dogg premiered his like
Speaker 1: super band there. I was just I was just someone
Speaker 1: who was just like, you know, you should watch this
Speaker 1: is gonna be weird, and uh no, I had no idea.
Speaker 1: So that's the other side of my personality right now.
Speaker 1: It's all bird watching and celebrity boxing right now. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I have like middle ages on the bridge and I'm
Speaker 1: just thinking it would be like if they kept teasing,
Speaker 1: like this person that we all hate is going to
Speaker 1: get executed, but then they always escape and like they
Speaker 1: keep bringing it back and people are just like, well,
Speaker 1: I guess I gotta go because if they do die,
Speaker 1: I really want to see them get the ship eat
Speaker 1: out of them. I also think it's underrated that like
Speaker 1: boxing to this point is so like people who are
Speaker 1: very good boxers cancel each other out and it can
Speaker 1: be pretty boring except for like the split second when
Speaker 1: somebody breaks through and knocks the other person out. And
Speaker 1: then it's also like the specificity of like always having
Speaker 1: the same weight class fighting each other is something that
Speaker 1: keeps it very evenly matched and just mismatching. It is
Speaker 1: also like something that just is like throwing a live
Speaker 1: wire in the mix. You have no idea what's going
Speaker 1: to happen. It's just so weird looking to see, you know,
Speaker 1: because Logan Paul is so much taller than Mayweather. Take
Speaker 1: just yeah, it's like like the gross carnival, and I
Speaker 1: think they're making so much money, and that's the thing.
Speaker 1: I think maybe that's what it is is that I
Speaker 1: don't find many people like people on the left or whatever.
Speaker 1: It's just kind of like it's so mainstream that it
Speaker 1: just passes us by. And yet it's this like huge.
Speaker 1: I mean, people are making so much money, and I
Speaker 1: think people might be throwing you know, I think Mayweather
Speaker 1: could have definitely knocked his ass out. Maybe, you know,
Speaker 1: maybe it's like, oh, you let him stay up for whatever,
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, or maybe like, hey, we'll pay you
Speaker 1: more to like not fully destroy him. Yeah, like the longer.
Speaker 1: Someone else later on to say he survived, but may
Speaker 1: Whether made like tens of millions of dollars off this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: It's it's insane. Cash the funk out. And I'm like, well,
Speaker 1: credit to him because he's like, well, I'm not losing,
Speaker 1: and I'll just I'll just play with this child in
Speaker 1: the ring and be smack them around a little bit
Speaker 1: and get my millions. And why wouldn't you do that?
Speaker 1: It's you know, and then you'll yeah, and it wasn't
Speaker 1: even a real match, So there's literally no risk for him. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: stakes it's not going to hurt his record, not that
Speaker 1: that would ever be a possibility that his record would
Speaker 1: be hurt by Logan Paul, but and the fighting just
Speaker 1: seems like we're always just craving what's more close to
Speaker 1: our realities, Like, you know, I think that's why UFC
Speaker 1: had a huge you know, it was thriving because it
Speaker 1: was like street fighting, but like skilled and people like,
Speaker 1: oh ship, this is like you know, I could do this.
Speaker 1: Boxing seems like an art m m A. Well, granted
Speaker 1: it's a very elite sport. Is like you know, that
Speaker 1: is more like, yeah, this reminds you of when you
Speaker 1: I would just suck my little brother up and we're
Speaker 1: just rolling around and just throwing each other around. Eventually,
Speaker 1: I feel like the next paper views are going to
Speaker 1: happen like in the like customer service line at a target,
Speaker 1: and like that's what our boxing matches are probably, Yeah,
Speaker 1: just like just straight up regular people. Yeah yeah, Mark
Speaker 1: versus fucking Jared like taf mask on, you know, like
Speaker 1: anti Maslar Walmart. Yeah yeah, I heard they're trying to
Speaker 1: organize a FOUCHI versus Uh what's that. Yeah, there's something
Speaker 1: Tugger Carlton and that would do fucking numbers, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? It would again because our thing is
Speaker 1: you know, it's the end of an empire, so we
Speaker 1: have nothing but bread and bread and circuses like the
Speaker 1: Romanstead and gladiator fights. Yeah, yeah, pretty soon it will
Speaker 1: be like Bill bar versus fucking Sehn legend and like
Speaker 1: what you're like, Yeah, I'm here for it. And it'll
Speaker 1: determine political choices, to determine if trans people will have
Speaker 1: their medical expenses covered. It's like these people and are
Speaker 1: they stay cold? To know? But this is where, this
Speaker 1: is where the discourse has come to y'all. It's Caitlin
Speaker 1: Jenner and she just throws the match right right, trans people? Yeah,
Speaker 1: like this is bullshit. You know, check Caitlin's record. Man
Speaker 1: can run as a Republican governor. This is hold on.
Speaker 1: She shouldn't have gotten the ring. We should have we
Speaker 1: should have ended these fighters before or the process of lawmaking.
Speaker 1: Let's take a quick break. We'll be right back, and
Speaker 1: we're back, and uh, let's talk about the news. Where
Speaker 1: we're still in America on a year. What is the
Speaker 1: three hundred of the probably longer than that of the
Speaker 1: experiment of whether cruelty is an effective motivational tool, still
Speaker 1: trying to figure that out. And let's see what what
Speaker 1: what are we finding? Miles. I mean, look, we've talked.
Speaker 1: This has been a long ongoing news story about how
Speaker 1: the mostly the Chamber of Commerce and the business owning
Speaker 1: class of Americans have been really funding this message of like,
Speaker 1: we got to get people back to work. Also, these
Speaker 1: three hundred dollars stimulus checks that people are getting on
Speaker 1: top of their unemployment making them lazy, rendering um unexploitable workers,
Speaker 1: and we don't like that, So we need to figure
Speaker 1: out how we get these people back to work. Maybe
Speaker 1: what we can do is take their benefits away in
Speaker 1: the middle of a pandemic, because despite the vaccinations happening,
Speaker 1: we are still grappling with a pandemic. And the whole
Speaker 1: idea of cutting the checks has gained a lot of
Speaker 1: moment them. Like, you know, there are twenties six states
Speaker 1: or so who have it on their books to either
Speaker 1: they have ended the payments or are go or have
Speaker 1: created a sunset for it that will cut them off earlier.
Speaker 1: Again with the idea that this will motivate people to
Speaker 1: go take jobs and work for sub subsistence wages, wages
Speaker 1: that will not even cover your basic necessities. So, yes,
Speaker 1: that experiment is not going well for the business owning
Speaker 1: class because now we're finding out that in a state
Speaker 1: like Missouri where the benefits were cut off. I think
Speaker 1: on June twelve, they had a bit like there was
Speaker 1: like a The New York Times sort of covered a
Speaker 1: job fair that happened in like the following week, where
Speaker 1: people are like, Oh, this is gonna be great. We're
Speaker 1: probably gonna be looking at pre pandemic numbers of people interested.
Speaker 1: They went to this job fair, barely anyone showed up.
Speaker 1: And along with it, there's more research to say that
Speaker 1: workforce development officials in that state have said they haven't
Speaker 1: seen virtually no uptick in applicants for jobs since the
Speaker 1: governor announced that the supplemental check would be kai bosh
Speaker 1: would be ended. And even like the online site indeed
Speaker 1: where people go to look for jobs, they found that
Speaker 1: in states that have abandoned this check, the clicks on
Speaker 1: job postings were below the national average. So it's it's
Speaker 1: almost goes to say that you're actually this is having
Speaker 1: the opposite effect then, thinking people are gonna be so
Speaker 1: destitute and desperate that they're willing to then work for
Speaker 1: wages that are, you know, below what is necessary to live.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. They're like, Wow, the starvation is going to
Speaker 1: be such a great motivator. Let's let's all let's get
Speaker 1: ready to people. Are people are gonna want to work
Speaker 1: at B B at the mall, don't worry and Express
Speaker 1: and the Limited two yeah, and and the Delia's catalog.
Speaker 1: Everybody's going back to work, but it's not happening. There's
Speaker 1: an economist that was in the New York Times had
Speaker 1: this very nice way of saying it of what the
Speaker 1: situation is right now, saying, quote, one way you might
Speaker 1: define normal is when employers and workers have the same
Speaker 1: idea of what an appropriate package looks like for compensation,
Speaker 1: and then the issue is matching up the people with
Speaker 1: the jobs. Clearly, part of the problem now is that
Speaker 1: what employers and what workers think is out of whack.
Speaker 1: Mm hm. That's putting it lightly. I think that's so
Speaker 1: nice to say that when you, like, for example, in Missouri,
Speaker 1: in the area where this job fair was happening, you
Speaker 1: would need to be paying people at least fourteen dollars
Speaker 1: an hour to sort of avoid total absolute poverty like too.
Speaker 1: That's the minimum that's like the floor for someone to
Speaker 1: be able to have wages and be able to provide
Speaker 1: their own housing and things like that. If you had
Speaker 1: a child, that person would now need thirty dollars an hour.
Speaker 1: So they talk age in Missouri, do we know what
Speaker 1: the minimum wages in Missouri. I can imagine it's not
Speaker 1: close to fourteen an hour. The Missouri man um wage
Speaker 1: is eleven fifteen. So it's just shy of it. And
Speaker 1: so at this job fair, people were offering around thirteen
Speaker 1: dollars fourteen dollars bare nothing at fifteen in terms of
Speaker 1: like minimum wage stuff. And they spoke to some people
Speaker 1: that were there and this one woman said, if it's
Speaker 1: not even, if it's not above fifteen dollars, I'm wasting
Speaker 1: my time here. And this is someone who hadn't been
Speaker 1: working for a while, but they're personally they had arrived
Speaker 1: at a point to say this is what I this
Speaker 1: is I'm I refuse to live a life where I
Speaker 1: have to take to a two hour bus ride when
Speaker 1: I if I had the wages for a car, I
Speaker 1: could get there in twenty five minutes. Like it's this
Speaker 1: is adversely affecting my life. There's a lot of other
Speaker 1: theories around why people might not be coming back as
Speaker 1: quickly too, and that answers childcare and that's a huge
Speaker 1: missing thing. You know, we're all seeing how all of
Speaker 1: these forces contribute to people, whether it's there realized them
Speaker 1: realizing their worth and not wanting to, you know, lay
Speaker 1: down for these terrible wages, or just how like idiotic
Speaker 1: these business owners are in thinking like this is gonna work.
Speaker 1: Just turn the screws on them and on these human
Speaker 1: beings and then maybe they will come to the table
Speaker 1: um and they are, and you know then say oh,
Speaker 1: well we don't we're a business. We don't have enough
Speaker 1: money to pay that. That's going to destroy our business.
Speaker 1: And it's like, okay, then you don't get to have business.
Speaker 1: To like, you don't get to have business. Then that's
Speaker 1: not true. How much do you make exactly? That's not
Speaker 1: true at all. That's not true. That is not true.
Speaker 1: That line is so fucking tired to hear people say, well,
Speaker 1: then you know how much supposed to run a business? Well,
Speaker 1: first of all, you fucked up because your whole business
Speaker 1: is predicated on exploiting someone's labor so you can pay
Speaker 1: them funk all and you reap all the benefits of
Speaker 1: your labor so you can have of your little seed
Speaker 1: based on human cruelty. You are a capitalist who exploits
Speaker 1: human cruelty. At that point. I worked at a particular
Speaker 1: startup and they that was always the line, as you know,
Speaker 1: they were paying they would admit openly to not paying
Speaker 1: me enough. I also was once told, sorry, creatives just
Speaker 1: aren't respected in our industry quote, which is a really
Speaker 1: great thing for your boss to say. But yeah, you
Speaker 1: know you when you sign something and they'll oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I was just curious about the industry because it is
Speaker 1: eaten entertainment. But yeah, and it was they were like
Speaker 1: creatives yes, yes, um yeah, And you know, it was
Speaker 1: always like I'm just I was really just trying to
Speaker 1: get up see so expensive, you know, just trying to
Speaker 1: eat up to that like that line, you know, and
Speaker 1: and it was just like pulling teeth, and it was
Speaker 1: always like, you know, if like basically like your loyalty
Speaker 1: will pay off, right, like if you just like come
Speaker 1: with us and go, you know, and then just like
Speaker 1: of course, eventually you just get sucked over and nobody
Speaker 1: gives a yeah. So it's real charming. I do want
Speaker 1: to ask you a quick correction. Missouri's minimum wage will
Speaker 1: be eleven fifteen in as right now, it's still a
Speaker 1: ten thirty and in it's on an upward trajectory from
Speaker 1: it was seven five. This is what I was thinking.
Speaker 1: It still was somewhere around like eight nine. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: eleven fifteen is like what they We're like, okay, and
Speaker 1: then we'll fix it by getting them to eleven fifteen
Speaker 1: and to avoid starvation if you have a child, it's thirty.
Speaker 1: And I think what's really interesting is like just just
Speaker 1: to kind of underlining all things, because I always talk
Speaker 1: about the Chamber of Commerce because they represent, you know,
Speaker 1: most of the businesses and business owning class of people
Speaker 1: in the United States. There these are the same people
Speaker 1: who give quote unquote Bipartisanship awards two Democrats that were
Speaker 1: actively against the fifteen dollar minimum wage federal minimum wage.
Speaker 1: So that's Kirsten Cinema, that's Josh Gottheimer, that's people like
Speaker 1: Joe Mansion, Henry quay Are of Texas. These people again,
Speaker 1: they're this is how, this is how all this sort
Speaker 1: of environment works, where you have an entire group that's
Speaker 1: in the ears of politicians saying, don't you fucking dare
Speaker 1: back something that is going to pay these workers more,
Speaker 1: because that is gonna funk up people's bottom lines, and
Speaker 1: when they play ball, they're like, look at you, thank
Speaker 1: you so much for being open to buy partisanship. It
Speaker 1: fu yeah, I get, but anyway, get fucked. Indeed, you
Speaker 1: talk about this, uh gentleman Miles Taylor, who believes that
Speaker 1: he can save us from Trump. He has a new
Speaker 1: idea that isn't new at all. So he's basically saying
Speaker 1: he this. You might remember him as the op ed
Speaker 1: anonymous anonymous not bad person from the Trump administration said
Speaker 1: how bad Trump was. Anonymously was overtinuing to work for him,
Speaker 1: and he says that if Trump runs in, he has
Speaker 1: a plan and that in no way benefits him at all.
Speaker 1: His plan is he will run as an independent to
Speaker 1: split the vote, so all you have to do is
Speaker 1: vote for him for president there and he has saved
Speaker 1: us all because I can take some of the people
Speaker 1: of good conscience with me. Okay, again, we saw this
Speaker 1: in with a guy that couldn't even win in his
Speaker 1: home state, so it didn't work. And I think this
Speaker 1: whole idea that like, I can save it, but not
Speaker 1: in the way that would guarantee me the most smoke,
Speaker 1: which is to be in the party and start being
Speaker 1: loud and trying to rip it down. This like tether
Speaker 1: to Donald Trump. I'll be the guy would like, I'll
Speaker 1: lure some other people away with maybe some Lincoln Project
Speaker 1: money and probably, if anything, most likely take people who
Speaker 1: are like Democrats or people who resture Democrats who would
Speaker 1: may vote Republican. I don't think it's gonna I don't
Speaker 1: think you're gonna get much of the These aren't Trump
Speaker 1: so Republican Republicans because that party is not here no more.
Speaker 1: The person you're targeting is like the book are on CNN,
Speaker 1: who thinks this is a good idea because they're like
Speaker 1: a big D Democrat or like a centrist and think
Speaker 1: that everybody thinks like that. He wants Biden to win,
Speaker 1: then right, that's the ideas just like right, he doesn't
Speaker 1: want right, right? Who knows? Hey, you know, wink wink, hey,
Speaker 1: Koch Brothers, kink um Man. But yeah, this whole thing
Speaker 1: is so Stephen Robinson and Wonka just you know, just
Speaker 1: pointing out like this, Evan mcmaman, we tried this, this,
Speaker 1: this is it didn't work. It's not the point. And
Speaker 1: also the whole idea is there's not there's nothing that
Speaker 1: this party stands for anymore where like this, like mystery
Speaker 1: person of the fed up Republican is like in numbers
Speaker 1: big enough to anything. A lot of people are like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm still here for the red meat racism. I still
Speaker 1: I still eat that. So sure, but good luck to you, Miles,
Speaker 1: good luck to you. I do think that the only
Speaker 1: chance we so like this appealing to the people of
Speaker 1: good consciousness is out of like that. That's just not
Speaker 1: gonna happen. I was reading the story of how like
Speaker 1: bar eventually came around to say there was no fraud
Speaker 1: in the election. It was like over lunch and he
Speaker 1: like said it through a mouth full of food and
Speaker 1: like off handedly, so like it was like his body
Speaker 1: didn't want to even let him admit it. But Mitch
Speaker 1: McConnell had apparently been like lobbying him to come out
Speaker 1: and say this, because he was like, if I say it,
Speaker 1: Trump is going to go like raised Earth against the
Speaker 1: Senate race in Georgia. He's gonna like totally funk it up.
Speaker 1: It's like, Bill, Bill, you got you gotta be the one.
Speaker 1: I think He literally said, I look around and you're
Speaker 1: the only one who can do it. And Bill bar
Speaker 1: waited a month to do it. So three whoppers do
Speaker 1: the journalist who he was having lunch with with like
Speaker 1: was eating with them. I was like, wait, sorry, what
Speaker 1: what did you just say? Could you repeat yourself? Mr
Speaker 1: Bark So that this raised the first possibility I've seen
Speaker 1: of Trump not being the candidate for the Republicans. And
Speaker 1: it's just like internal funnory by like you're you're starting
Speaker 1: to hear Republican party officials be like, well, we can't,
Speaker 1: Like he just needs to disappear and that's the only
Speaker 1: thing that's going to stop him from coming back and
Speaker 1: getting like the same number of votes he got last time.
Speaker 1: Is like internal like anti democratic, basically a Republican amccinations,
Speaker 1: which in this case I'm fine with. They don't wanna.
Speaker 1: It's like they all look like someone who's dealing with
Speaker 1: a person, Like they they're all enabling the base, you know,
Speaker 1: like if they're if they're addicted to Trump, they're enabling
Speaker 1: this addiction to his rhetoric by not being the truth
Speaker 1: talkers in the situation. Like even in this this back
Speaker 1: and forth McConnell and Bill Barr, he was saying like, quote,
Speaker 1: you're in a better position to inject some reality into
Speaker 1: this situation, you are really the only one who can
Speaker 1: do it. It sounds like Mitch McConnell, you're not willing
Speaker 1: to put yourself out there and also do that as well,
Speaker 1: because for you, it's easier to be like, I don't
Speaker 1: want to say they have a problem with this Trump
Speaker 1: stuff and it's it's getting out of hand now, but
Speaker 1: like I certainly don't want and everyone wants to keep
Speaker 1: their hands off to the point that now it's a
Speaker 1: complete runaway train and they're still scratching their heads being like,
Speaker 1: well maybe if we ignore him, yeah, no, yeah. The
Speaker 1: mainstream media narrative seems to be that like we're beyond
Speaker 1: this and like everybody just wants Trump to go away.
Speaker 1: But like I think runaway train is like a great
Speaker 1: metaphor that we're like on a collision course with a
Speaker 1: number another presidential election where he's going to have exactly
Speaker 1: as much, if not more support than he did last time.
Speaker 1: Because what's going to stop the Republican Party is not
Speaker 1: going to no matter how much they you know, I
Speaker 1: think they want to or claim they want to, and
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is not going to be able to
Speaker 1: stop him. So clearly they're they're sitting on their fucking
Speaker 1: hands and being like, I don't know, Philip. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: we're we're headed right back to where we came from.
Speaker 1: Do you guys have a running mate guess divination? M M.
Speaker 1: That's interesting. I mean, I don't know. It's weird because
Speaker 1: he Rhonda Santis is out polling him in like these
Speaker 1: straw polls right now, so which is interesting. But I
Speaker 1: think that's probably provided by the campaign for a round
Speaker 1: to Santis. But yeah, and I'm so That's what I'm curious,
Speaker 1: is like it would I don't know people. I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess NICKI Haley, like if if he's trying to
Speaker 1: seem like he can run a better campaign this time,
Speaker 1: but I just feel like he was into her own thing.
Speaker 1: But she's becoming just as extreme even though everyone's like, no,
Speaker 1: she's okay. It's like, I don't have you heard have
Speaker 1: you heard how she's been talking lately? What about Marjorie?
Speaker 1: Do you guys think of whatever happened? I think that
Speaker 1: would be more likely than another like Mike Pence type,
Speaker 1: where like he listened on listened to other people on
Speaker 1: Mike Pence, and I think he thought that was a
Speaker 1: failure I think he, like I was saying, he's going
Speaker 1: to have as much support or more. I think he's
Speaker 1: going to be more far more dangerous than he was
Speaker 1: the first time around, like during the election if he wins,
Speaker 1: because he's through listening to people, like he doesn't even
Speaker 1: listen to Avanka anymore. Like he's now just in his
Speaker 1: media cave, getting like creating paranoid fantasy. Right. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: scarface at the end. Yeah, he's scarface at the end.
Speaker 1: But he has a very legitimate shot at winning presidency.
Speaker 1: So yeah, scarface at the end running the country. It's uh,
Speaker 1: you know that full of cocaine front. He's just off
Speaker 1: your best friend. Well, and then you've got the mythos
Speaker 1: of him rising again, right, which is really attractive, just
Speaker 1: as like a Christian narrative, right, like he's being resurrected back,
Speaker 1: and it's just gonna be real. They're gonna just how
Speaker 1: could it get turned up anymore? But it will. I
Speaker 1: just want you and on to go away. It makes
Speaker 1: my job really stressful. Yeah, do they come at you? No,
Speaker 1: I mean not. I don't read reviews, but yeah, I'm sure,
Speaker 1: but just uh, I just I don't know, it's I
Speaker 1: can't even watch, Like I try to watch, uh, what
Speaker 1: is it the newest conjuring, you know, and it's all
Speaker 1: about Satan worshippers and you know, and it's like, you
Speaker 1: guys need to stop doing this. This is actually really
Speaker 1: irresponsible at this po Like it's all about devil rituals
Speaker 1: and everything, and it's just just reminds me of work. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't like, don't want to watch show some birds
Speaker 1: that prey ripping up a mouth. Please, real real violence.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be
Speaker 1: right back. And we're back, and let's do it a
Speaker 1: little quick hit a good news. Yeah, the fiser and
Speaker 1: Maderna vaccines, uh may last a long time, longer than
Speaker 1: we initially anticipated. So if you're one of these people
Speaker 1: who was waiting for the lyddy version, well if there's
Speaker 1: a lit version, was last better? And look, hey you
Speaker 1: funck with get to get these m R and A vaccines.
Speaker 1: The studies are now showing that you may not need
Speaker 1: booster shots at this the efficacy of them may last
Speaker 1: for a really long time. So I just want to
Speaker 1: read this one bit. Findings add to growing evidence that
Speaker 1: most people immunize with the m R and A vaccines,
Speaker 1: so that would be fiser and Maderna may not need
Speaker 1: boosters so long as the virus and its variants do
Speaker 1: not evolve much beyond their current forms, which makes sense,
Speaker 1: which isn't guaranteed because life. But even better news, people
Speaker 1: who recovered from COVID nineteen before being vaccinated may not
Speaker 1: need boosters even if the virus does make a significant transformation.
Speaker 1: So they're saying, if you are someone who recovered from
Speaker 1: COVID and you got vaccinated, you're looking at even better
Speaker 1: outcomes from people who who weren't infected and just got vaccinated.
Speaker 1: That's because they've been looking at sort of immune cells,
Speaker 1: and they say they recognize that the virus lie quiescent
Speaker 1: in the bone marrow for at least eight months after infection,
Speaker 1: and so called memory B cells continue to mature and
Speaker 1: strengthen for at least a year after infection. Based on
Speaker 1: those findings, researchers suggested that immunity might last for years,
Speaker 1: possibly a lifetime in people who are infected and later vaccinated.
Speaker 1: But how long does the magnetism last is my question.
Speaker 1: It depends on how let's say skeptical about the yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: TV TBD. They're more how long does Bill Bill Gates
Speaker 1: get to listen to my thoughts? Bro? Sorry, he's already
Speaker 1: been listening to them. Spoiler alert spoiler on all the
Speaker 1: surveillance state stuff. It's all it's all happening at your phone. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but unfortunately you got the J and J might not
Speaker 1: be as durable damn in the long term. What it
Speaker 1: so they obviously feel effective for the variance we have now,
Speaker 1: it's just more like long long view saying if we're
Speaker 1: dealing with this kind of COVID, Yeah, it turns out
Speaker 1: the news is very promising. That's great. I just feel
Speaker 1: bad for J and J. Did you get Jane? No,
Speaker 1: you're which one? Did you get Jack McKay feiser, Oh
Speaker 1: that's right, of course, how can yeah? Yeah. Yeah. It
Speaker 1: just feels like I've the the people who got jan J,
Speaker 1: Like I have a friend who got it. And then
Speaker 1: the next day they were like, we're not giving this
Speaker 1: out anymore, and like pulled it off the market for
Speaker 1: like a week, and then now they're like, yeah, you're
Speaker 1: gonna need another one of these bad boys. Sorry. It's
Speaker 1: just like all it felt like cutting corners from the
Speaker 1: start because you only had to get one and it
Speaker 1: was like slightly lower and now it's just like NonStop. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I mean not to say this isn't to say
Speaker 1: that J and J is useless. It's just because based
Speaker 1: on because it's not an m r and A vaccine,
Speaker 1: it's just operating differently. And so the long view is
Speaker 1: that and that was always the case. That's why the
Speaker 1: efficacy rates were higher for the m RNA vaccines than
Speaker 1: they were. And you can probably get that other vaccine, right,
Speaker 1: It's not like you get the J J and you
Speaker 1: can't get I don't know that would be super fucked up,
Speaker 1: or like, hey man, it's like you're you're trying to
Speaker 1: download a Windows application onto a mac o West computer. Right,
Speaker 1: that's and it's not gonna happen. But you can't double
Speaker 1: up on my You can't just like keep getting vaccines
Speaker 1: until you get the one you want, right, Like, no, no,
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm talking long term, you know, eventually
Speaker 1: eventually last week I just wanted to get like I
Speaker 1: didn't even get sick. Can we go hard on like
Speaker 1: a couple modernism? Like just do a you know, a
Speaker 1: tasting menu? Can we can we do like a swirl
Speaker 1: like when or a graveyard soda? You know, soda isn't one.
Speaker 1: I got Astras Naka fiser BioNTech, Maderna, J and J
Speaker 1: A couple of weird ones I didn't even hear, but
Speaker 1: I don't really know how to pronounce them, but I
Speaker 1: got him. The Rick Carlisle is what I think of
Speaker 1: with the graveyard that he as a as a grown
Speaker 1: man in his forties, still when he goes to a
Speaker 1: restaurant orders a graveyard. How many times a year does
Speaker 1: that happen? Probably zero? Actually except for servers. Yeah, I'm sorry, sir.
Speaker 1: What Yeah, you're not at a pool concession stand? Do
Speaker 1: you understand on that? Right? I said, I know what
Speaker 1: I want. All right, let's talk about this UFO report.
Speaker 1: I mean, in some ways it's uneventful. They didn't explain ship.
Speaker 1: They explained one of the I think you know it
Speaker 1: was over a hundred cases that they were looking at,
Speaker 1: explained one as a deflating weather balloon. All the rest
Speaker 1: were not explained, and they specified they called out one
Speaker 1: reports of eighteen episodes that have no known explanation, like
Speaker 1: based on what they saw, they can't be explained. But
Speaker 1: then they do go out of their way to say that, like,
Speaker 1: we definitely need more data. You know, some of the
Speaker 1: targeting cameras that were used are hard to read. They're
Speaker 1: not things that were used to seeing. So it's not
Speaker 1: the bombshell that I feel like UFO until enthusiasts were
Speaker 1: hoping for. But you know, they did give it. The
Speaker 1: old College Tribe are a couple of months and they
Speaker 1: weren't able to explain really anything. So it's a total
Speaker 1: of a hundred and forty three reports gathered since two
Speaker 1: thousand four remain unexplained. The assumption among the skeptics seems
Speaker 1: to be that there is some motivation for all of
Speaker 1: these reports to start popping up popping up at the
Speaker 1: same time, like the US is so far and above
Speaker 1: enemy weapon capabilities that they need to create like a
Speaker 1: boogeyman to motivate increased like weapons spending. Finally we do
Speaker 1: that ship without going to that suggested there's like some
Speaker 1: massive pushback on like weapons spending as of right now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm a skeptic enough in how the foreign policy
Speaker 1: works in this country, you know, like we don't need
Speaker 1: aliens to keep them on, Like that's yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: I don't think that's a necessary part of it, but
Speaker 1: go ahead, there's I just they still it's the number
Speaker 1: of them, the similarity between them, and the fact that
Speaker 1: many of them have both eyewitness testimony, the weapons targeting
Speaker 1: cameras and radar. It's like that. That was the thing
Speaker 1: from the sixty minutes report that like sticks with me
Speaker 1: is that they kept seeing this phenomenon on radar. They
Speaker 1: scrambled the jets out to go look at it, and
Speaker 1: then with their eyes the fighter jet pilots saw this
Speaker 1: inexplicable like white tic tac that was like circling them.
Speaker 1: So for that one, it has to be a an
Speaker 1: explanation where the radar caused them to scramble these fighter jets,
Speaker 1: and the fighter jet happened to be flown by two
Speaker 1: fighter pilots who wanted to create this hoax around like UFOs.
Speaker 1: So I mean, it's possible for sure, probably more possible
Speaker 1: than alien life forms like living amongst us, But I
Speaker 1: don't know. It is at least not as open and
Speaker 1: shut as like the skeptics. Rebuttals that I find least
Speaker 1: convincing are like one off things where it's like it's
Speaker 1: just a weather balloon, scene through this one camera. It's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: but it was seen by radar a camera and then
Speaker 1: instance that one instance. But it's also like the similarity
Speaker 1: between them. Are we saying that because one person said
Speaker 1: tic tac or there's this one video of the tic
Speaker 1: tac shaped thing that that's then influencing people. And then
Speaker 1: Chelsea from your kind of the world of your podcast,
Speaker 1: I guess I find that just as interesting, Like what
Speaker 1: about our culture changed from wanting to believe in flying?
Speaker 1: So like, if we're to assume that this is all
Speaker 1: bullshit or like a figment of the human imagination, then
Speaker 1: what about our imagination change so that we wanted to
Speaker 1: be a tic tech as opposed to like a flying saucer.
Speaker 1: I guess I couldn't answer that that. Maybe that has
Speaker 1: some like I mean the book I read that one
Speaker 1: of the books I read that really influenced the show
Speaker 1: is actually Carl Young, which okay, yeah, just whatever problematic person,
Speaker 1: but this and also maybe full of Ship really god,
Speaker 1: just a very interesting person. But he wrote a book
Speaker 1: about kind of like the psychology of the UFO hysteria.
Speaker 1: I'm not I have no skin in this game in
Speaker 1: terms of our aliens real or not. We were talking
Speaker 1: about this before. But you know, in an ever expanding,
Speaker 1: infinite universe, I certainly have no problem imagining that we
Speaker 1: are not alone. And that's about as far as I
Speaker 1: go into having like a real opinion. But he was
Speaker 1: writing about the forties and that was the first time
Speaker 1: that I mean, these sightings was popping up all the time,
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, like boom boom boom boom boom
Speaker 1: all over the country. And it was right around the
Speaker 1: time that we were really fearing like a Nazi invasion, right,
Speaker 1: we were really fearing sort of an invasion from with
Speaker 1: out coming to the country that we hadn't experienced. So
Speaker 1: it's just you can kind of I don't know what
Speaker 1: would be now, like what the reason would be now,
Speaker 1: except that you know, Tom DeLong really led the charge
Speaker 1: and finally got us to believe in aliens. Isn't that
Speaker 1: fucking weird that Tom DeLong just like he lived his
Speaker 1: truth Because I think about being, you know, a ten
Speaker 1: year old kid listening to blank on two or however old,
Speaker 1: and listening to that Aliens Is It Exists song, and
Speaker 1: it's such a great anthem of a conspiracy theorists sort
Speaker 1: of being like, I don't want to believe this, but
Speaker 1: I think that it might be true. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I grew up with like my dad speaking of shapes
Speaker 1: of UFOs. My dad is somebody who was like, has
Speaker 1: a million sort of whopper tales. You know, he can't
Speaker 1: really tell they're true. But this actually came up the
Speaker 1: other day because I had to attend a wedding with
Speaker 1: both my biological mother and that side of my family
Speaker 1: and my biological father and that side of family, which
Speaker 1: is not like ideal, but they were able to have
Speaker 1: a nice conversation about my dad. This story he has
Speaker 1: of a UFO encounter, which is confirmed by her, and
Speaker 1: she always believed it because he came back and he
Speaker 1: was so scared, like shaking and really really freaked out.
Speaker 1: So he was like driving his truck out to get
Speaker 1: beer after some party and he was with his friend
Speaker 1: jar Shaw, who calls me Sheila and will not meet me.
Speaker 1: And I have never met my dad's best friend, and
Speaker 1: it's the whole thing, but he just calls me Sheila.
Speaker 1: It's it's he just it's like become a joke now,
Speaker 1: like he's shy. But now it's been thirty years, so
Speaker 1: it's just a joke. Now this is your you know,
Speaker 1: you can cut his heart out. Jarshaw. It's just such
Speaker 1: a good name. Years like a combination. No, it's the
Speaker 1: last name. Yeah, it's just Yeah. So they're driving their
Speaker 1: truck in through the woods outside Olympia and they hit
Speaker 1: something just boom and you know, slam on the brakes
Speaker 1: and they get out and see this orb, like a
Speaker 1: silver orb, and it just suddenly like rises up and
Speaker 1: just shoots off into the woods. That's what they said
Speaker 1: they saw, right, And that's a story I was told
Speaker 1: my whole life growing up, you know, and so I
Speaker 1: probably didn't happen, you know, like it sounds crazy, but
Speaker 1: there's like, you know, there's two people who say it happened,
Speaker 1: probably to drunk people. I don't know. It's it's a
Speaker 1: weird story. Friends who got each other's back. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you gotta get my back. Man. Let's say this orb.
Speaker 1: I will never know the truth, but you know that
Speaker 1: is like woven in the fabric of my d n
Speaker 1: A is like this story and other alien types of stories,
Speaker 1: and uh, I just have no idea. But I think,
Speaker 1: you know, this circular thing is interesting because that's not
Speaker 1: something I heard a lot about it, like it seems
Speaker 1: like a what like a men in Black scenario or
Speaker 1: something like that. But yeah, I don't. I don't have
Speaker 1: a ton of thoughts. The only thing that we like
Speaker 1: to really disprove is that like reptilian aliens bred with
Speaker 1: humans to create like pedophile elites, you know, like we
Speaker 1: don't want any think we don't. That's what we're trying
Speaker 1: to kind of deep on. But other one they blink
Speaker 1: sideways and they blank sideways. Here's a video of it.
Speaker 1: Should the suspect blink two sets of eyes? Yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: two sets of eyelids? But you know, so I I
Speaker 1: am scared of aliens. I don't really want to deal
Speaker 1: with it. It's definitely one of my biggest fears, which
Speaker 1: I don't really know why I watched all Remember like
Speaker 1: Fox Caught on tape, you guys, I know, like UFOs
Speaker 1: caught on tape. It was such a huge thing in
Speaker 1: the nineties too, And I don't know, I want to
Speaker 1: do a whole episode that that traces this so get back.
Speaker 1: I wonder what it offers people, like sort of philosophically
Speaker 1: for those that are believers, and what is sort of
Speaker 1: anathema to the people who are like really aggressive about
Speaker 1: denying any other life existing out in the universe at all,
Speaker 1: or the idea that we could be so ignorant about
Speaker 1: our own planet or life on this planet that it's
Speaker 1: just like protecting ourselves. No, like that's we know everything
Speaker 1: there is to know. We know everything is to know.
Speaker 1: Like both are terrifying, right, like the existence or non existence,
Speaker 1: because if it's non existence, we're just floating in an
Speaker 1: infinite darkness with like no hope. Right. But if it's
Speaker 1: like they're aliens, that might be scary, but it's kind
Speaker 1: of like the Illuminati, right, it's like, Okay, maybe there's
Speaker 1: something up here that even if they're nefarious, it shows
Speaker 1: me that there's like something controlling the chaos. You know.
Speaker 1: I think so much stuff just comes back to like
Speaker 1: the anxiety of of not knowing and the anxiety of
Speaker 1: death than all of those sortain things, And people just
Speaker 1: go in different directions depending on how they're raised, and
Speaker 1: so we get this battle. I never really but into
Speaker 1: it growing up. I wasn't even really interested in like
Speaker 1: time life stuff. I just like put that all in
Speaker 1: the category of like I was more interested in, like
Speaker 1: like the explanation for ancient aliens being like inherent white
Speaker 1: supremacy and like that, they're just like, well, they couldn't
Speaker 1: have built these massive pyramids because they weren't white. And
Speaker 1: it's like, no, there were civilizations that we just wiped
Speaker 1: out that you are giving like way too short credit
Speaker 1: for this like space of sightings and videos and like
Speaker 1: military I don't know, there's just like a a sense
Speaker 1: that you hear among fighter pilots and you know, who
Speaker 1: knows if they have their own motivation, but like this,
Speaker 1: this particular space just doesn't like the no explanation has
Speaker 1: like quite sat right with me to this point. And
Speaker 1: usually when I'm like looking at history or like a
Speaker 1: story this much, I'm able to come up with like
Speaker 1: a working model of the event that fits within the
Speaker 1: version of the universe that like my brain has formed
Speaker 1: in the background, And like this one, just like it
Speaker 1: still feels very unsettled to me. So that's why I
Speaker 1: that's just like how my brain works. I'm like very
Speaker 1: interested in it until I can like kind of uh
Speaker 1: explain it. I've jumped straight to bringing out the welcome
Speaker 1: wagon for the extraterrestrials. Yeah, I mean, I'm just like
Speaker 1: spare me, please, ignorant. That worked well. That worked well
Speaker 1: for the the Revelers and Independence days. Yeah, at the
Speaker 1: first Interstate Bank building in downtown, come they're opening the doors, Like,
Speaker 1: I mean, I think you're I think the way you're
Speaker 1: doing it, Jack is good. It's like, let's just we
Speaker 1: don't know, we don't know, we don't just don't know.
Speaker 1: It's a great like place to sit in, you know
Speaker 1: sometimes like we don't know, And so that opens up
Speaker 1: because if you say they're not real or they are real,
Speaker 1: then you're gonna be processing all the data through your
Speaker 1: confirmation bias. So you're gonna say all this evidence in
Speaker 1: one way where it's like if you don't know, then
Speaker 1: you can like you just like observe it and eventually
Speaker 1: maybe come to a conclusion. But I just don't think
Speaker 1: until we see if, until we have any definitive proof,
Speaker 1: how we're going to to say no, yes or no. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Like this is like as much as like I don't
Speaker 1: believe in ghosts, I really didn't believe in UFOs prior
Speaker 1: to this whole story and like doing research into it,
Speaker 1: so it's I feel very stupid for believing, Like it
Speaker 1: doesn't sit right with me that I like, I am
Speaker 1: open to it. But that's where I'm at. Have you
Speaker 1: been to Roswell before the town? No, I'm like not
Speaker 1: that that ship. I know. I drove through though on
Speaker 1: like a road trip and went there and it is
Speaker 1: just the tackiest, most fantastic town. It's just like is not.
Speaker 1: The town's not doing well and they're completely subsisting on
Speaker 1: like alien plastic alien toys made in China. That's just
Speaker 1: how they're getting by. But the museum is very fun.
Speaker 1: I will give the museum that. I like it when
Speaker 1: it's like it's so tactic, like, yeah, you goes like
Speaker 1: you're gonna you're gonna not believe in anything. Yeah, fuck it.
Speaker 1: U Oh right, and we are thrilled to be joined
Speaker 1: in our fourth seat today by the Superprouser herself Superprouser.
Speaker 1: Oh for on a streaming corner was that bye, hold
Speaker 1: on my My court is stuck to me and I'm
Speaker 1: all wrapped up. Oh did you get the vaccine? You
Speaker 1: might be Actually I'm an anti vaxer. Did I not
Speaker 1: tell you? Yeah? That's probably I'm I'm I'm Mr Nay
Speaker 1: all day, m r n A all day. There you go.
Speaker 1: So this week we watched the show on HBO Max
Speaker 1: called Starstruck. Why don't you give us a description of
Speaker 1: why you recommended it? Well, I recommended it because Miles
Speaker 1: was like, have you seen this show? And I was like, no,
Speaker 1: I gotta check it out, and then I loved it,
Speaker 1: so then I recommended it. So inde, Miles recommended it, um,
Speaker 1: which goes against everything that anna streaming wer is. Okay,
Speaker 1: let's erase that part, like people got to know the
Speaker 1: magic of this I didn't even know. Well, Miles, the
Speaker 1: dude who's running for president against Trump? No, no, some
Speaker 1: other asshole got it. Okay. I'm unfortunately did not hear
Speaker 1: the majority of this episode, so I do not understand
Speaker 1: the reference. I apologize. So, yes, the show's star Struck.
Speaker 1: It's stars comedian writer actor from New Zealand Rose Matafeo,
Speaker 1: who is like in Edinburgh, you know, legend if you will,
Speaker 1: a legend. She she I had never seen her in anything,
Speaker 1: I don't think, but she's sucking. I mean it's just
Speaker 1: like a toward force. She's amazing. Yeah. So she she
Speaker 1: stars in star Struck, and I believe she wrote it,
Speaker 1: you know, obviously, because it's hilarious. But it's about this
Speaker 1: new Zealander who lives in London and she, like you know,
Speaker 1: hooks up with a guy one night. Turns out guy
Speaker 1: is huge movie action star and then you know, hilarity ensues.
Speaker 1: It's great, it's fun. It's a fun romp. It's only
Speaker 1: six episodes. It's really entertaining. It moves fast, but it's hilarious,
Speaker 1: and um, I'm excited to see Rose and more stuff
Speaker 1: now now that she got this, like you know, HBO
Speaker 1: Max show and actually I believe a comedy special now
Speaker 1: in HBO Max. As they were advertising it, right, I
Speaker 1: saw the ad for it, like when I was finishing
Speaker 1: watching Starstruck, and this is as good a vehicle for
Speaker 1: like making you want to watch the thing they're advertising,
Speaker 1: because like she's so funny, and then the stand up
Speaker 1: stuff that they show from her special. Really it seems
Speaker 1: like she's just a real live wire. Yeah, this looks
Speaker 1: so good. I'm so excited. It has a percent on
Speaker 1: rat Tomatoes. Yeah, this show has so much fucking heart though.
Speaker 1: I really like because it's hilarious, but it's really grounded,
Speaker 1: like she's she's got her own ship, she's dealing with
Speaker 1: and it's not just like, oh no, my life's perfect
Speaker 1: because I'm with this celebrity who has everything. It's like
Speaker 1: she's really kind of embarrassed by it and is dealing
Speaker 1: like with her own idea about like what this celebrity
Speaker 1: is and who this person is in relation to her.
Speaker 1: And the cast is like really like I'm not really
Speaker 1: familiar with a lot of the people in the show,
Speaker 1: but I personally I have to shout out that one
Speaker 1: of her co stars m A. C D who plays
Speaker 1: her roommate Kate, has so many good like one liner,
Speaker 1: just like performance things that are so subtle that they
Speaker 1: just were fucking killing me. So yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: about many driver how she doing. I haven't seen her
Speaker 1: in a while. She only in like one episode yea,
Speaker 1: she has a brief role, but she is very funny.
Speaker 1: It's like my favorite. Yeah, this is my favorite genre
Speaker 1: of cameo when a like actor gets to come in
Speaker 1: and for fifteen minutes play the exact sort of Hollywood
Speaker 1: asshole who like they hate the most in like the
Speaker 1: entertainment industry. So she comes in and just plays this
Speaker 1: inexplicable manager for for the actor and is very funny.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, she's hilarious. Also the guy the Action
Speaker 1: Stars played by Nikesh Patel, who I didn't make the connection,
Speaker 1: but I've been following him on Twitter for a while
Speaker 1: and he's like really funny on Twitter. So when I
Speaker 1: realized it was him, I was like, oh, like, he
Speaker 1: just has a lot of joke. He wasn't like a
Speaker 1: Doctor Who episode, and there was just like, you know,
Speaker 1: a lot of like him getting confused for like another
Speaker 1: Indian guy actor who's like, I don't know, he just
Speaker 1: he's really funny on Twitter, and he talks a lot
Speaker 1: about being a person of color in the industry. And
Speaker 1: so I was actually like, oh, ship, it's that guy.
Speaker 1: I've only seen his profile literally, like he has his
Speaker 1: photo is like a profile of him. So, like I
Speaker 1: it took me a while to make the connection, but
Speaker 1: then I when I did, I was like, Yes, that guy,
Speaker 1: he's really it. So I hope to see more of
Speaker 1: both of them in upcoming comedies or even dramas. If
Speaker 1: you like, if you like English comedies, you're gonna love this.
Speaker 1: If you like if you like Kiwi People, you know
Speaker 1: you're Guy Montgomery fan Rose Matafao is bringing that energy
Speaker 1: in her own great way, and also like if you
Speaker 1: just like a show, that's if you like good writing,
Speaker 1: you're gonna like this show because it's really well done.
Speaker 1: In just six episodes, you really get a full on
Speaker 1: arc that so it's like not often you watch a
Speaker 1: comedy show and then the episode ends and you're like, Okay,
Speaker 1: could go fire up the next one, fi up the
Speaker 1: next like you don't want the sort of ride to end,
Speaker 1: So you're getting some feel good vibes. Did you guys
Speaker 1: watch Feel Good? Martin? Oh? Really, that's that sounds like
Speaker 1: the most like this show. May Martin is a comedian
Speaker 1: who also wrote a show, and she is a Canadian
Speaker 1: living in England, and it's like recovering drug addict who's
Speaker 1: also like very non binary and kind of struggling with that.
Speaker 1: But it is one of the funniest and most heartfelt shows.
Speaker 1: I cannot recommend it that the trailer was kind of
Speaker 1: ad so I slept on it a little and then
Speaker 1: somebody brought it to me and so that will be
Speaker 1: my This feels like the continuation of that need that
Speaker 1: needs to be fulfilled that that show opened. So thank
Speaker 1: you for that recommendation. I'm excited. There's yeah, there's just
Speaker 1: also the way that Rose out of fail like just
Speaker 1: writes about relationships. It's so fucking honest and real that
Speaker 1: it's just like from she has like this X, who
Speaker 1: she's not really that into, but like he's around and
Speaker 1: like he's so annoying, but it's like written in this
Speaker 1: way where you can kind of see how disarming like
Speaker 1: can kind of like just kind of make their way
Speaker 1: back and you're like, wait, what the funk am I
Speaker 1: doing with your um? Yeah, so I'm definitely gonna have
Speaker 1: to check uh feel good out. Yeah, just off the
Speaker 1: strength of the title. Yep, Yeah, I think I actually
Speaker 1: did watch the trailer for this. I gotta go now,
Speaker 1: I know. And that was an extra edition of Chelsea
Speaker 1: slash Anna's streaming What do You? What's the next one?
Speaker 1: What do you? What do you? What? Do you? Lobbing up?
Speaker 1: Next time for us to dunk down from the from
Speaker 1: the recommendation should we all do feel good? Or you
Speaker 1: have did you have something in the chamber? I know
Speaker 1: I was thinking of something and now I'm blanking. One
Speaker 1: thing I will say is that I'm going to be
Speaker 1: watching Army of the Dead at some point in the
Speaker 1: next week, just because the Nielsen ratings that came out
Speaker 1: revealed that to be kind of a massive hit, that
Speaker 1: a blockbuster. It's worth of people have watched. So I
Speaker 1: just want to watch that and kind of get a
Speaker 1: sense for Like I watched it very passively, just because
Speaker 1: knowing that Tig Nataro wasn't acting with anyone on screen.
Speaker 1: And when you watch it like that, you're kind of like,
Speaker 1: this is amazing. There's like a lot of parts they
Speaker 1: clearly said to shoehorn Tig in, and like the acting
Speaker 1: is like happened. Like the way they would frame shots
Speaker 1: to make it seem like they were both there is
Speaker 1: very clever. But when you watch, you like, ay, nobody
Speaker 1: there reading the scene with it. But I heard about
Speaker 1: oh yeah Tick Nataro? Who did who did replace? Yeah?
Speaker 1: So because of that ship that went down with Chrys
Speaker 1: d'eliah and his inappropriate connections with miners and things and
Speaker 1: other women, they put tig Nataro win. But like in
Speaker 1: the Pandemic, like it had to be shot in the
Speaker 1: Pandemic and it was just Tick on screen having to
Speaker 1: navigate that. Yeah, after the movie had been shot, um
Speaker 1: and agree what you wanna know? I honestly can't remember.
Speaker 1: I had something, and I legitimately can't remember because I
Speaker 1: came up with it before I went and saw Fast
Speaker 1: in the Furious nine, and that's like all that's been
Speaker 1: on my mind. Everything. Yeah, I can't remember what I
Speaker 1: was watching. Now. All my critical theory is strictly f
Speaker 1: nine based. I don't know that's in Furious nine. I
Speaker 1: do feel like we also, that's a movie that I
Speaker 1: probably need to watch. I tried to talk myself into
Speaker 1: going last night, but to go see Fast nine. Yeah,
Speaker 1: did you see it yet? Yeah? No, no, Yeah, we
Speaker 1: gotta see that. It's a tour day force. Hey maybe yeah,
Speaker 1: maybe Miles would be at a random theater in the
Speaker 1: l A area and I'll watch it. There you go,
Speaker 1: we can meet up. It's lovely. I actually went to
Speaker 1: see it with Joel Monique. Oh yeah, because I was
Speaker 1: because I was out of town and our fucking Joel
Speaker 1: when she was on the other day, I was like,
Speaker 1: I want to go with you. We were talking about
Speaker 1: we had a whole thing and I was out of town.
Speaker 1: So I played myself and I'll beside myself. Engineer, editor,
Speaker 1: producer Justin was with me, and so I met Justin
Speaker 1: for the first time in person. Boy, we had fun.
Speaker 1: We really did. I'm not joking. That movie is a
Speaker 1: wild Ride was a sneaker game. He actually wore beautiful sneakers.
Speaker 1: I pointed them out and he was like, they had
Speaker 1: some Swede on them. I was just gonna point out
Speaker 1: that there's been utter silence from Justin on this first
Speaker 1: times denying I don't know her. I'm like, what did
Speaker 1: you do this weekend? He's I don't know, hasn't even
Speaker 1: dropped in. He said nothing. Man, it sucked. Now we're
Speaker 1: actually like best friends. Now we got matching tats. One
Speaker 1: day he'll admit it. Um. All right, So we will
Speaker 1: be back tomorrow with what this week's assignment is. But
Speaker 1: I will be watching that Netflix show Army of the Dead.
Speaker 1: We were going to try and hit up F nine
Speaker 1: at some point this week to uh, you know, be
Speaker 1: in touch with the zeitgeist because it's the biggest movie
Speaker 1: since the Last Star Wars dropped the biggest opening weekend
Speaker 1: Fast nine. Yeah, I will say it is a movie
Speaker 1: made strictly for people who love the fast and the furious.
Speaker 1: Like they were like, okay, right down every trope we've
Speaker 1: ever touched on ever in this entire series. Now do
Speaker 1: that like multiply the emotion times a thousand and the
Speaker 1: stunts have to go harder. Uh, we have to say
Speaker 1: family minimum eighties six thousand times right, and it's the
Speaker 1: dream and you know what, Yeah, people will come back
Speaker 1: from the dead. Because if there's minimum at least six
Speaker 1: people don't come back from the dead from each Fast
Speaker 1: and the Furious movie, there's no movie. It's not worth it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what's the point? Has it reached scream level? Because I'm
Speaker 1: not a Fast and Furious person? I have no hate
Speaker 1: and I sort of want to be one, so I
Speaker 1: like feel jealousy right now. But has it reached like
Speaker 1: scream level where it's like eventually going to become self
Speaker 1: conscious and self aware and a parent of itself? It
Speaker 1: has that pitched all right, wonderful? Well that makes me really,
Speaker 1: I will say, there's the first person perspective. Yeah, there
Speaker 1: is a character, a beloved character who does start to
Speaker 1: point out that things are a little weird, how kind
Speaker 1: of everything just works out? Yes, the best fun He
Speaker 1: literally is just like, yeah, what is going like have
Speaker 1: you noticed we like don't die, like doesn't exist in university?
Speaker 1: Then it's like there's spinoff films where Tyrese's characters like
Speaker 1: dealing with his immortality, trying to die a bunch of
Speaker 1: ways like he's already. Yeah right, that's funny. Oh see
Speaker 1: new I p for y'all. There you go, Chelsea as
Speaker 1: always such a pleasure having you. Where can people find you?
Speaker 1: Follow you? Here? You? Well, thanks guys, It's always so
Speaker 1: great to be here you guys. Let's see. You can
Speaker 1: find me on Twitter, although I have been taking quite
Speaker 1: a Twitter break and my mental health is improving markedly,
Speaker 1: but I did it for you, guys. I did lots
Speaker 1: of twittering this weekend for you guys. Oh please, don't please.
Speaker 1: I never want to hear anyone's on Twitter because of me.
Speaker 1: I'm like the same way, I'm like, huh. There's a
Speaker 1: relationship with my lack of social media and my anxiety
Speaker 1: going down. Yeah, it's weird, isn't it. It's so strange.
Speaker 1: But you can find me there at a Mere Hysteria
Speaker 1: and on Instagram, which stresses me out considerably less, at
Speaker 1: American Hysteria podcast and then you can find my show
Speaker 1: American Hysteria anywhere that you get your podcasts, but maybe
Speaker 1: some places you can't but I don't know, probably but
Speaker 1: places and is there a tweeter some of the work
Speaker 1: of social media you've been enjoying. Oh yeah, I decided
Speaker 1: I would, Um, what I woke up to about myself?
Speaker 1: How about that? We like those I got here, I'm
Speaker 1: not going to say their name, but because it wasn't
Speaker 1: super nice, but so it said at a mere hysteria,
Speaker 1: all well and good, but nuclear doesn't contain the sound
Speaker 1: you anywhere in it. It's nuclear. And then they put
Speaker 1: the like pronunciation of it, you know, like the I
Speaker 1: don't know what you call it, but the phonetic pronunciation
Speaker 1: of it, and then just said please, which um, I
Speaker 1: felt like was really a great way to wake up
Speaker 1: because I can't say the word nuclear. I say nuclear.
Speaker 1: I say it, And I've been working on it for
Speaker 1: years now for this show, because that is the number
Speaker 1: one thing that people write to me about, is you
Speaker 1: say the word new clear wrong? And uh, I just
Speaker 1: wanted to share that tweet that I felt was really unnecessary. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think you should just Yeah, it's it's crazy how
Speaker 1: I do say that, and that is true of me always,
Speaker 1: So get yeah, get sucking used to it, and like,
Speaker 1: let me go through your life's work and just like
Speaker 1: make sure you're pronouncing every word right, and uh yeah,
Speaker 1: I just decided to end on a petty note. Why
Speaker 1: not people get mad at me for saying A and
Speaker 1: ann at the wrong time, And yeah, I don't know,
Speaker 1: like I do it like randomly. I've noticed and it's weird.
Speaker 1: But I'm also not gonna like change my train of
Speaker 1: thought to trying to address it. Just just trust that,
Speaker 1: like when I write emails, I don't mix it up.
Speaker 1: It's just a fucking weird brain fart and everybody can
Speaker 1: get fucked who corrects me on that? Also, it's just like, yeah,
Speaker 1: just like you're saying, like the great Homer Simpson when
Speaker 1: he joins the Navy, it's nuclear nuclear sub it's hard
Speaker 1: when the President said it again and again and again,
Speaker 1: it gets driven into you. You know. It's funny because
Speaker 1: as I was looking this up, I was like, which
Speaker 1: episode is that? When we're Simpson, Homer says it it's
Speaker 1: the Navy one. But someone on Reddit on the Simpsons.
Speaker 1: I said, I'm a big Simpsons fan, but never got
Speaker 1: the nuclear Joe and someone explain it. We're like, you
Speaker 1: are a true fan because you probably went, yeah, it's
Speaker 1: that's what Homer said, probably the producer around Hosni. Where
Speaker 1: can people find you? And what's a tweet you've been enjoying?
Speaker 1: I just realized I pronounce what is it? Nuclear? Nuclear?
Speaker 1: It's not nuclear? Are you one of me? Nuclear? We
Speaker 1: do it? But oh, I honestly have no idea that.
Speaker 1: When you were talking about that, I was like, I
Speaker 1: don't even know how I say that word. I have
Speaker 1: no memory of ever saying it. I refused to say
Speaker 1: reused to say it. I don't know. I protest against it.
Speaker 1: Someone tweeted that they refused to listen to my show
Speaker 1: anymore because of the way because words mean things. That's
Speaker 1: really terrible that someone has the free will to not
Speaker 1: listen to something that's free for that, I know, how
Speaker 1: dare I? You know? Shake the foundations? Welcome to Earth? Yeah,
Speaker 1: welcome to Earth? Thank you? Do you do you have
Speaker 1: a tweet you want to call out or um? Yeah?
Speaker 1: First of all, I would like to shout out that
Speaker 1: photo of Virgil Ablow at Fashion Week with his brand
Speaker 1: new like sweatsuit. I'm that photo gave me. I saw
Speaker 1: it all over Twitter. Jesus Merrow tweeted it like me
Speaker 1: coming to brunch after that P P P. Loan comes through.
Speaker 1: I thought was funny, but also it gives me so
Speaker 1: much anxiety because the pants are way too long and
Speaker 1: his shoes are untied. And I know that's like the
Speaker 1: cool athithetic, but it's like, come on, man, like is
Speaker 1: it worth tripping to be like cool as hell? I
Speaker 1: don't know. It's not worth it to me. It's like
Speaker 1: it's kind of dangerous. That's a flex because you're like, dude,
Speaker 1: I even have to pay attention to like walking. That's
Speaker 1: the problem to me. It's like I can't get past that.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, cool, you're wearing a suit made out
Speaker 1: of sweats. Great, it's a new girl joke, but like
Speaker 1: I can't, like, you gotta tie your shoes, man, it's
Speaker 1: not worth it. Like just tie your shoes, even if
Speaker 1: the pants are too long, just tie the shoes. It's
Speaker 1: not going on. You don't know that, we don't know.
Speaker 1: Imagine that's how he dies. He gets caught in an
Speaker 1: escalator in a blood bath and shoes. Oh god, no,
Speaker 1: you don the escalator. You just step on the lace
Speaker 1: and you fall right down and you fall factly, yeah exactly,
Speaker 1: and there's no coming back because you also have those
Speaker 1: really long pants. You don't know what's going to happen.
Speaker 1: I can't find this picture. What is he now? I
Speaker 1: can't either in the chat, it's really bad. It's just,
Speaker 1: you know, that's fine, Virgie a blow your you know
Speaker 1: what you do for Look, you've had some terrible takes
Speaker 1: and your fashion. Yeah whatever. To me, I'm like, whatever,
Speaker 1: it's Louis Vutan. It's high fashion, you know. But he's
Speaker 1: bringing back to the Vatan Air Force ones that people
Speaker 1: had to use to custom making the early octs. I
Speaker 1: think that's been the biggest thing for the culture. Old choogy,
Speaker 1: geriatric hip hop millennials have been looking at it like,
Speaker 1: yos are back. That's cool. I'm you know, I'm all
Speaker 1: about it. Do your thing, but just tie your shoes, people,
Speaker 1: it's just not worth like literally losing your front teeth.
Speaker 1: You know how insurance works in this country. It's not
Speaker 1: for us. Okay, insurance is not for us. This is
Speaker 1: reminding me Anna, I know you must remember this of
Speaker 1: the style of like girls in high school in like
Speaker 1: the let's see, it was like the two early two
Speaker 1: thousands when the the bell bottoms were so big and
Speaker 1: they would drag on the ground. You guys know this, Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then they just rip apart, and if you live
Speaker 1: in Seattle, they're just so Yeah, that's what I mean.
Speaker 1: That was true for me, and I'm way older than
Speaker 1: you guys like that was that's always been like the
Speaker 1: chewed up back, like chewed up for a while. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and that's when I get it. But nobody becomes like
Speaker 1: a mop that's been in use for forty years. I
Speaker 1: guess that's what the flex is that you're like, these
Speaker 1: are you know, probably like thousand dollar pants that I'll
Speaker 1: sweep the streets of Paris with because I don't give
Speaker 1: a fun nothing that's true. Just you know, be safe everyone.
Speaker 1: If you can't afford that. My mother's like, you're not
Speaker 1: getting out of the car until you tie your shoes.
