Speaker 1: dentist like, oh fuck, I've just been reading so many
Speaker 1: articles from dentists who are like, man, the pandemic fucked
Speaker 1: everyone's teeth up, like no one took care of their ship.
Speaker 1: People were grinding their teeth and like they're looking at
Speaker 1: all kinds of weird ship just from a year of
Speaker 1: stress and not no visits. Oh yeah, oh yeah, so
Speaker 1: humble bragg. My teeth have no cavities, which is good.
Speaker 1: The bad news is my gums uh needed attention, and
Speaker 1: it was very painful attention that it needed because they're like, wow, yeah,
Speaker 1: you haven't been in for over a year. This is
Speaker 1: gonna hurt. And hey, well, when you have teeth that
Speaker 1: are as good as your teeth, the gums are always
Speaker 1: feel like they don't get enough attention. So I understand
Speaker 1: where where your gums are coming from. Yeah, yeah, they're
Speaker 1: they're they've got fomo yeah gingo gingo. Wait, no, no,
Speaker 1: that's why I didn't because I'm a good girl at
Speaker 1: loss right right. I had always heard that Gingo was
Speaker 1: made up by Listo Big Listo Listerine Yah want us
Speaker 1: to gargle their microjuice? Yeah, are you a cavity? Cavity
Speaker 1: have her in general? No, Now, my teeth are pretty
Speaker 1: resilient to the punishment I put them through chewing on
Speaker 1: popcorn kernels. Leave an ice cream on him overnight, they're champions,
Speaker 1: leave an ice cream on them, just soaking in some
Speaker 1: vanilla vanilla. I got durable choppers, not so durable gums.
Speaker 1: They get sad at me when I don't floss um.
Speaker 1: My worst problem, like you mentioned, is the teeth grinding.
Speaker 1: I actually don't grind. I clinch hard at night, and uh.
Speaker 1: The dentist continually says, yeah, you clinch a lot. I
Speaker 1: can tell. And I got a mouth guard, but it
Speaker 1: was made out of a hard plastic so when I
Speaker 1: put it in, I drool a lot, and then I
Speaker 1: start chewing on the mouth guard, like repeatedly, So I'm
Speaker 1: just chopping and drooling all night. So I just put
Speaker 1: a belt in my mouth like an old person put
Speaker 1: a wallet, yeah, I don't know, wrapped around it. I got.
Speaker 1: I got fitted for a new mouthguard that's made out
Speaker 1: of a softer material. Thank you, thank you for you.
Speaker 1: Just do what I do. I do the dots mouth guard.
Speaker 1: You take those candies dots and you just kind of
Speaker 1: hurry along your teeth oh yeah, yeah overnight, and then
Speaker 1: you have a nice fruity tasting mouth in the morning.
Speaker 1: I just put a few select pieces of black licorice
Speaker 1: between my teeth, and then it also looks like I'm
Speaker 1: missing teeth and I can pretend like I'm a I'm
Speaker 1: a gold miner. It's like I have found golden these
Speaker 1: hill for an audience of no one in the middle
Speaker 1: of the night. I feel like, as somebody who also
Speaker 1: hasn't had cavities in my life, like being married to
Speaker 1: my wife who takes as good, if not better, care
Speaker 1: of her teeth and she has had multiple cavities. It's
Speaker 1: like so fully a genetic thing, like your your ability
Speaker 1: or inability to get cavities, Like, don't let them. I mean,
Speaker 1: it helps to take good care of it. But like,
Speaker 1: don't feel bad if you're just like if your teeth
Speaker 1: look like Swiss cheese, man, that's on. That's on. God,
Speaker 1: don't worry about it. Yeah, fir a second, think you're
Speaker 1: gonna go to the Joe Rogan take. You're like, dude,
Speaker 1: I've never had cavities. That's what I'm saying. These dentists
Speaker 1: are lying to you, you know what I mean, Like,
Speaker 1: what how come I never had no cavities? Anyway? Bro?
Speaker 1: I was jyr Bolsonaro after this Big Big LISTO, Big
Speaker 1: LISTO and Bill Gates coming together put their micro juice. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Have we ever mentioned the idea for the soccer podcast
Speaker 1: Gayer Golf Scenaro pitch for a podcast just discussion? All right, Katie,
Speaker 1: you are the host of the funked Up Nature Show
Speaker 1: Creature feature uh, where Nature is revealed to be a
Speaker 1: horror movie and also really cool. So we have a
Speaker 1: we have some nature ship going on today. We're also
Speaker 1: talking crypto crash, We're talking Trump Org being possibly criminally,
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about Kendall Jenner's celebrity tequila all of that.
Speaker 1: So anymore, but first, Katie, we like to ask our guests,
Speaker 1: what is something from your search history that's revealing about
Speaker 1: who you are? Yeah, I searched for the White Stripes,
Speaker 1: like the band, uh not, because like, I'm a big
Speaker 1: fan of theirs, although you know, what is it a
Speaker 1: hundred year anthem? That's pretty good. But like I was
Speaker 1: making a joke on the Creature feature about Zebras because
Speaker 1: I had a listener asked me about zebra stripes, like
Speaker 1: what are they black with white stripes or white with
Speaker 1: black stripes? And I want to make a joke about
Speaker 1: the white stripes, So I thought maybe googling the band
Speaker 1: would help me with the joke. But it didn't as
Speaker 1: choogy as fun Katie, dude, I like they feel like
Speaker 1: one of those They feel like Avatar a little bit,
Speaker 1: like one of those things that was a huge deal
Speaker 1: and then kind of disappeared from the culture. I guess
Speaker 1: Jack White is still a big deal. But the reign
Speaker 1: of White the White Stripes was when it was cool
Speaker 1: to be like, yo, I saw the White Stripes live
Speaker 1: that it was still I would be down to see them,
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, they're actually he's fucking awesome to see what.
Speaker 1: I'm honestly shocked that ugs and um crocs outlived the
Speaker 1: White Stripes. Yeah, crocs, because what was there any reason?
Speaker 1: I mean, I just know that they were like him
Speaker 1: and Meg were just like, yeah, we're not We're not
Speaker 1: doing this anymore. Thanks. Yeah, where my White Stripes fans
Speaker 1: at me? Why they break up? Shockingly? I think a
Speaker 1: band that was a man and a woman, their fan
Speaker 1: base was and you're not gonna believe this toxic towards
Speaker 1: Meg White and Treader like shit. And she eventually was like,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to do this anymore. You know, they
Speaker 1: can sucking toxic fans or ass out of there. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think the fuck is wrong with people. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: remember they're being a big deal about like, oh are
Speaker 1: they brother and sister? Are they? I mean that was
Speaker 1: on them, That was that was them. They like, that
Speaker 1: was just Jack White being Jack Wadey. He wanted but
Speaker 1: are they which they are ex husband and wife. I
Speaker 1: believe who claimed when they first came out to be
Speaker 1: brother and sister, because I don't know, he has some
Speaker 1: like weird I'm not gonna say Michael Jackson vibes because
Speaker 1: that obviously has a weird connotation to it, but like
Speaker 1: Johnny Depp channeling Michael Jackson in the Willie Wonka remake,
Speaker 1: he is good at channeling like childlike stuff and enjoys
Speaker 1: doing it. They thought they thought that would be good
Speaker 1: for the brand. Yeah, yeah, we're just brother and sister
Speaker 1: walking to school together. Well, that's kind of like his
Speaker 1: whole thing is because he kind of wants to keep
Speaker 1: people off, like wrong footed about who he actually is.
Speaker 1: He's like never which I think is kind of cool
Speaker 1: when you're like so like well known. That's the only
Speaker 1: way I think you can claim any sense of like
Speaker 1: privacy as you're like, well, I'm gonna just showing them
Speaker 1: this ship in public and then they can do it
Speaker 1: and I'll be me over here. But again, I don't
Speaker 1: really know this guy, so let us know jack Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think he's super like a super talented musician and
Speaker 1: interesting dude who has handled his celebrity in an interesting
Speaker 1: way for sure, what is something you think is overrated? Salad? Uh?
Speaker 1: Huh sad chicken? Are we talking about the leafy green leaves?
Speaker 1: The leafy green? Because when you think about it, have
Speaker 1: you ever thought about salad? You hear about this guy's
Speaker 1: you thought about It's just like it's lubricated leaves and
Speaker 1: hard bread and I could have like softer bread and
Speaker 1: non moist leave. Wait, so hold on, do you want
Speaker 1: to eat a dry leaf? Like your ideal meal is
Speaker 1: just a dry leaf? Is a rabbit? People might not
Speaker 1: realize that Katie is actually a rabbit. They might Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you put a leaf on on a soft bread, right
Speaker 1: with like some chicken or something. Maybe sandwich, Yeah, sandwich,
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. Sandwiches are better thanselves. What are
Speaker 1: you doing? It's just little please, it's a sam I mean.
Speaker 1: Do you do you like vegetables though? You just so
Speaker 1: if you're gonna have your vegetable intake, you're like raw
Speaker 1: with a veggie. Yeah, just eat a raw vegetable, bite
Speaker 1: into a big old bell pepper. Sure, yeah, you're eating
Speaker 1: a raw potato right now like an apple. I find
Speaker 1: it's good for my digestion digestive health. Digestion, digestion as
Speaker 1: nobody says. Yeah, I don't know, salads are better for
Speaker 1: me than sandwiches. And this might just be in my
Speaker 1: old age, likely comfortable, but I like this. What I mean,
Speaker 1: they're being compared, right, that's true. Well, I guess I
Speaker 1: feel like there's got to be a new method though
Speaker 1: for salad eating, Like maybe like a cone made out
Speaker 1: of lettuce and then you drizzle the inside with like
Speaker 1: vinaigrette and then you fill it with crutons and topings
Speaker 1: and really did give up on presentation. It's it's just
Speaker 1: a pile lazy. He just want to sounds like you
Speaker 1: just want you to let us wrap anything lettuces for wrapping.
Speaker 1: That's what it sounds like. That's what you're landing lettuce
Speaker 1: as a wrap. Salads are a rap, right, but usually
Speaker 1: let us wrap has like meat and stuff in it.
Speaker 1: I just want crutons wrapped in all us Okay? Yeah,
Speaker 1: then yeah, do you put crutons? You sound like you're
Speaker 1: you're a big tan head. Do you do you put that?
Speaker 1: That was not the best I could have done, but
Speaker 1: it is what I did. Uh? Do you do you
Speaker 1: put crutons in soup? I love a cruton. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's good. It's made made. Handmade some crutons last night
Speaker 1: by chopping bread up into cubes. But I kind of
Speaker 1: overdid the toms so they were a little bit you know,
Speaker 1: cinder blocks. Yeah yeah. Testing those teeth up yeah, um,
Speaker 1: what is something you think is underrated? I mean this
Speaker 1: kind of dovetails with our dental conversation, but having a
Speaker 1: relaxed jaw. If you are someone who doesn't constantly clenched
Speaker 1: their jaw and just doesn't notice what's going on with
Speaker 1: their jaw, you are so lucky because like just being
Speaker 1: able to like your default being relaxing your jaw is
Speaker 1: such a dream for me to one day achieved, because
Speaker 1: every time I'm like, I think a out my jaw,
Speaker 1: I realized it's clamped harder than like a vice. It's
Speaker 1: just constantly on chomp mode. And I wish I could
Speaker 1: stop chump mode. I love that Travis Scott song. Are
Speaker 1: your jaws doing guys? I definitely so. I don't notice
Speaker 1: it for sure, but then when I unclenched, I noticed
Speaker 1: that I have been clenching it. But it's always in retrospect.
Speaker 1: It's such a good feeling though, when you yeah, when
Speaker 1: you just remind you some like you've got to just
Speaker 1: check in with your like where you're like, yeah, I
Speaker 1: will hold my stress in my jaw sometimes. But I
Speaker 1: think because because I had one night where I don't
Speaker 1: know what the funk was going on in my dreams
Speaker 1: or something, because my jaw was fucked up in the morning,
Speaker 1: I don't know if I just slept at a weird
Speaker 1: angle or like I just have my head mouth clenched
Speaker 1: a certain way those dream tons from dreat t s,
Speaker 1: and I like, yeah, after that the following few days,
Speaker 1: it made me so aware of how my mouth was
Speaker 1: that like, over time, I was just like, oh, ship,
Speaker 1: just check in with your mouth, just check in. Release,
Speaker 1: release the mouth, release the mouth exactly. That's what meditation
Speaker 1: is good for, checking in with with all the weird
Speaker 1: things you're doing to your body. Halfway through the death,
Speaker 1: I get really itchy though when I meditate, because I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh wait, but I'm thinking about my arm now now
Speaker 1: it's itchy. Oh you do that thing, and then everything's
Speaker 1: like my arm, it's just my arm, it's his mom,
Speaker 1: it's his mom. It's just I find that it helps
Speaker 1: to itch your arm when that happens. I thought you
Speaker 1: weren't allowed to move during medicine. You can't move, you
Speaker 1: can't say nothing to you. I used to make all
Speaker 1: sorts of rules about meditation. Then somebody was like, noticing
Speaker 1: that your arm itches and that that's distracting you from meditating.
Speaker 1: Is meditating. It's like noticing the distractions but thinking of
Speaker 1: them as distractions, and then like that is meditation. You
Speaker 1: can do whatever the funk you want. You can you
Speaker 1: can edge, you can move around if you want. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's wild, you know I can't wait. Yeah you should
Speaker 1: check jack out on clubhouse when uh, all right, let's
Speaker 1: check in real quick with the crypto market says we
Speaker 1: do at the top of every show. There we go,
Speaker 1: here we go. Bro. Uh no, so this I don't
Speaker 1: know miles, you pay closer attention to this. So I
Speaker 1: am observing this like I observed young people at a distance.
Speaker 1: But with this phone, dial right nine one exactly. Uh.
Speaker 1: We can't do that old Chris Rock bit where he
Speaker 1: says dial nine one and then just wait because phones
Speaker 1: don't work like that anymore. You have to update that
Speaker 1: one to nine one one waiting to hit anyway. That's
Speaker 1: for old choogy joke Steelers. But this from a distance
Speaker 1: seems inexplicable that people so we had the Game Stuck
Speaker 1: thing where it was laid bare that if people who
Speaker 1: aren't on the street as we call it on Wall
Speaker 1: Street try to make money at the expense of people
Speaker 1: who are on the street who worked for banks and
Speaker 1: worked for you know, hedge funds, they will flip the board, right,
Speaker 1: Like we learned that from the Game Stunk thing, that
Speaker 1: like at least Robin Hood, yeah, I mean Robin Hood
Speaker 1: shut it down. They yeah, they they'll find a way
Speaker 1: to like tell things in their direction. But then after
Speaker 1: that people started digging into crypto and now that seems
Speaker 1: to be like tanking. Uh Miles, you're pointing out it's
Speaker 1: like a two wave your ride sometimes if you if
Speaker 1: you just look at the lifespan of any of these cryptocurrencies,
Speaker 1: it does this all the time, like we will be
Speaker 1: like what and then and were and but I think,
Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of write ups now that
Speaker 1: there's this time it seems very different because you know,
Speaker 1: you have and India also saying they're developing their own
Speaker 1: digital currencies that and saying we're not. We don't want
Speaker 1: our people fucking with bitcoin or these other cryptos that
Speaker 1: are out here. Um, so because of that, they're so
Speaker 1: a lot of people are like, fuck, now what am
Speaker 1: I holding onto this bitcoin for? But you know, I
Speaker 1: think it all depends on where you're at. A lot
Speaker 1: of people still see this as like a way to
Speaker 1: disrupt like the sort of centralized market, although a lot
Speaker 1: of where it's traded is very centralized. But I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's there's also a lot of people that lost money,
Speaker 1: and I think, like you were saying, people were putting
Speaker 1: their stimulus checks into ship Like, you know, there was
Speaker 1: a whole thing on the internet where people are like, yo,
Speaker 1: I'm fucking yoloing this stimulus check into some doge coin
Speaker 1: or whatever, and they just took a huge fucking hit
Speaker 1: on top of fucking like Elon also just doing his
Speaker 1: whole thing, and like so that was creating a lot
Speaker 1: of it's like interest very recently at a very intense level.
Speaker 1: It just feels like it's because I had ten hot
Speaker 1: dollars in there. So it depends on when you bought it,
Speaker 1: because if you're one of these people who bought it
Speaker 1: at like, you know, seventy cents, when SNL happened. Oh boy, no, no,
Speaker 1: I bought it a long time ago, and then it
Speaker 1: turned into a hundred dollars. Yeah, you might be okay now,
Speaker 1: but yeah, you could say I'm a professional investor. I
Speaker 1: get it. Yeah, you've got the diamond hands and you're
Speaker 1: holding off of your life like the rest of them.
Speaker 1: With any of these things, from doge to bitcoin, isn't it.
Speaker 1: It's not. There's not a lot of intrinsic value. It's
Speaker 1: just human psychology. It's a it's a prisoner's dilemma game
Speaker 1: you're playing with other people, right, So that's it's gonna
Speaker 1: be really volatile, it's all. Yeah. I mean I've given
Speaker 1: up on value with with Wall Street a long time ago,
Speaker 1: since all the all those hedge fun people became billionaires
Speaker 1: from doing literally adding no value to anyone's life other
Speaker 1: than their own. But this seems, I don't know, by
Speaker 1: bringing people in with this like pitch of it's crypto,
Speaker 1: and because you are tech savvy you understand it. It's
Speaker 1: still such an information economy. It just feels like you're
Speaker 1: a farmer who, like an old timey farmer who's just
Speaker 1: at the you know, lives and dies by the weather,
Speaker 1: and they have access to like meteorology, and they just
Speaker 1: have the better information. So like you're going to get
Speaker 1: fucked in the end because they have the inside track.
Speaker 1: I was in a conversation with an old guy who
Speaker 1: is very distraught about the crypto crash and kept referring
Speaker 1: to Elon musk as Elton musk Uh and that is
Speaker 1: not You should not be have a significant amount of
Speaker 1: your livelihood or happiness tied to an informed Asian economy.
Speaker 1: When you think Elama's name is out, when you're Tony Stark, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that ain't gonna work out for you, exactly. I mean, yeah.
Speaker 1: This other thing too, is a lot of people who
Speaker 1: are like big crypto advocates are like this is by design.
Speaker 1: You could see that India, China, Tesla. We're all basically saying,
Speaker 1: like announcing these things that would shake people's confidence in
Speaker 1: crypto to trigger a massive sell off, And they're like
Speaker 1: they're trying to, you know, undermine the faith into what's
Speaker 1: happening here. I mean, you know, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: vested interest in all this stuff, and I think it's
Speaker 1: it's going to continue to evolve. I don't think it
Speaker 1: to say like this is the end I think is
Speaker 1: a little bit premature, but it's it's an involving it's
Speaker 1: an evolving world we living. I mean, think of all
Speaker 1: the how n f T s are becoming more and
Speaker 1: more everyone is trying to get into that from like
Speaker 1: massive corporations now like Dan Harmon, who's like n f Team,
Speaker 1: like an animated It's it's like people are trying. People
Speaker 1: are trying all kinds of ship right now, and yeah,
Speaker 1: it might work out, it might not, but it's we're
Speaker 1: you're we're watching it in real time, that's for sure.
Speaker 1: N f T or no Guy, yeah, non Fule Tolkien's yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean I feel like a kind of a heuristic
Speaker 1: to use is by the time you hear about crypto
Speaker 1: investment or one of these like meme stock type of things,
Speaker 1: by the time it uh kind of makes the major news,
Speaker 1: it's too late to invest because you know, you're you're
Speaker 1: sharing about it last. And if you're one of the
Speaker 1: last people to like put your money into something that's
Speaker 1: like taking off, you're probably buying it when it's like,
Speaker 1: you know, at a real high, and then it's probably
Speaker 1: gonna crash again. So it's like, you know, when you
Speaker 1: when you hear news like you know, like oh or
Speaker 1: Ellen going like by this or like oh wow, this
Speaker 1: stock is taking off. You know it's probably not a
Speaker 1: good time to buy anyways, because you know, yeah, and
Speaker 1: and he knows too. He can say things and create
Speaker 1: a lot of interest in the stock and create a
Speaker 1: lot of people start buying or something. It's just all
Speaker 1: That's why it's it's so easy to become so cynical
Speaker 1: looking at all this and looking at the factors involved
Speaker 1: and being like, uh, this is a game that has
Speaker 1: like so many input factors and some people have such
Speaker 1: outsized influence over it, but that one's getting played and
Speaker 1: it's probably not. Jack and I. Our job is to
Speaker 1: look at the Zeite guys and and see the undulations
Speaker 1: in the future and the past and president. That's why
Speaker 1: we are all in on t d Z. I mean,
Speaker 1: they're all tied directly to be because you think about
Speaker 1: their dirt cheap right now, baby, I mean you can
Speaker 1: basically get them for beans. What they're gonna be in
Speaker 1: fifteen years. You can come visit me and my mansion
Speaker 1: for the answer. But just looking at broadly, like how
Speaker 1: this portion of American history has operated for the past
Speaker 1: let's say twenty to thirty years, and nothing has effectively
Speaker 1: changed about it. It's that people who are inside there's
Speaker 1: like legal insider trading. They will find a way to profit.
Speaker 1: You will get fucked. That's how this has worked. And
Speaker 1: it just feels weird that people are now kind of
Speaker 1: scrambling to get involved because the crypto thing, Like I
Speaker 1: get the appeal of the crypto thing that it's like,
Speaker 1: but it's unique, and nothing that's digital is unique. So
Speaker 1: this is like the first I don't know, it's kind
Speaker 1: of like groundbreaking. I I understand like how that can
Speaker 1: be appealing, but I think greed and Wall Street, like
Speaker 1: insider eism is, which is a real word, uh, is
Speaker 1: going to trump that every time. Yeah, any time like
Speaker 1: the little guy, the little investor figures out some trick
Speaker 1: to maybe earn money at the expense of Wall Street,
Speaker 1: Wall Street is going to course correct really quickly. So
Speaker 1: it's not gonna it's like as soon as you're like,
Speaker 1: oh maybe if I do this, They're just gonna completely
Speaker 1: change course and make sure that never happens again. So yeah,
Speaker 1: like by the time again, like by the time you
Speaker 1: hear about some trick in Wall Street, Like by the
Speaker 1: time it's getting reported like, oh, well, the little investor
Speaker 1: could make money by doing this, it's too late, Like
Speaker 1: they're already gonna learn about it and make sure that
Speaker 1: never happens again. Right, Yeah, the people who like that
Speaker 1: made all the money in the big short like they
Speaker 1: were outsiders, but they were still like people who had
Speaker 1: a careers worth of experience in Wall Street and who
Speaker 1: had all these connections. Uh, they were not just like
Speaker 1: some dude who read an article online. And I I'm
Speaker 1: sure there's people who are very smart who can be
Speaker 1: like you guys are full ship. You don't know what
Speaker 1: you're talking about, and I don't. I'm just looking at
Speaker 1: this from a distance and saying, writ large, if you're
Speaker 1: just getting in on crypto, somebody is trying to funk you,
Speaker 1: and they probably have better access to power and information
Speaker 1: in the stock market than than you do. All right,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.
Speaker 1: And we're back and just more on the crypto things
Speaker 1: to producer on a Hosnier miles, we're pointing out like
Speaker 1: you shouldn't be watching your investments every day and making
Speaker 1: rash decisions. This is me talking about it from a
Speaker 1: third party perspective, having nothing in crypto and just seeing
Speaker 1: the news stories about it crashing and drawing a judgment
Speaker 1: based on probably what is probably overreactions by the mainstream media.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, in general, I feel like Wall Street
Speaker 1: is out to fuck you. You know, Crypto, don't don't
Speaker 1: sell off if you have a long term investment strategy
Speaker 1: like crypto is, you know, might be a good investment
Speaker 1: long term. I'm just saying that I feel like they're
Speaker 1: always out to fuck you. That is my that is
Speaker 1: my educated outsider perspective. Yeah, it's like it's a long
Speaker 1: term thing that you want to invest in, not a
Speaker 1: short get rich quick scheme. That Yeah. Well that's why
Speaker 1: I think a lot of the write ups are happening,
Speaker 1: because a lot of the people like it's They're catching
Speaker 1: a lot of the sentiment from people who just who
Speaker 1: just got in expecting to ride some weird wave to
Speaker 1: like multi millionaire status overnight. And then you know, I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean this, this Selton Manx is really something else.
Speaker 1: All Right, Well, let's talk about the ultimate investment strategists,
Speaker 1: the guy who you should be listening to when it
Speaker 1: comes to where to put your money. That is, of course,
Speaker 1: the former President of the United States, Donald Trump. The
Speaker 1: Trump Or investigation went from civil to criminal. The New
Speaker 1: York City Attorney General's office has announced that their investigation
Speaker 1: is a criminal investigation. And that's a big deal. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, because civil just means fines and like go
Speaker 1: to class to like to remember, don't be swindling people
Speaker 1: with their condo pitches. And now criminal means potential for
Speaker 1: jail time. Because the New York Attorney General, Letitia James,
Speaker 1: she's been conducting a civil inquiry and this was over
Speaker 1: like the tax filings and if they were goofing the
Speaker 1: numbers on like the value of properties and then low
Speaker 1: bawling ship, you know what I mean, just to kind
Speaker 1: of get their their tax breaks and you know, you
Speaker 1: know how the how that class do. But now it's
Speaker 1: a criminal matter. And it's interesting because we don't know
Speaker 1: what is known or what they know, or who is
Speaker 1: at risk here, who's the focus of of investigation. But
Speaker 1: it is funny because back last summer, Eric Trump was
Speaker 1: fighting fucking tooth and nail against testifying in this case,
Speaker 1: like in giving any kind of testimony, because he was
Speaker 1: essentially he was like this could turn into a criminal case,
Speaker 1: and I don't want to incriminate myself. So that happened,
Speaker 1: and I don't know if it's for those Maybe there's
Speaker 1: been a lot of speculation about those Soho condos, a
Speaker 1: lot of ship about that. But Wanka is implicated because
Speaker 1: she was part of the what could be termed as
Speaker 1: the big lie to those Soho uh renters buyers, people
Speaker 1: who bought condos when they were like, we're at least
Speaker 1: eighty five percent full. Uh, these things are being snapped
Speaker 1: up and there were like five people. Yeah, so it's
Speaker 1: really bad. The other thing, too, is there's a thing
Speaker 1: in New York called the Martin Act, which for specifically
Speaker 1: things like fraud in the sales of like securities or
Speaker 1: even fucking condominiums, it gives the a g all these
Speaker 1: other powers to prosecute that kind of fraud. So that's
Speaker 1: a little bit of a sweat stained moment. And then
Speaker 1: when the Washington Post like hit up a Trump for
Speaker 1: comment on all of this, like, you know, what, what
Speaker 1: do you think about this switch to criminal? He just
Speaker 1: sent them a fucking video montage of Letitia James, like
Speaker 1: from her eighteen campaign saying like, oh the president's illegitimate
Speaker 1: and stuff, and we're gonna we're gonna sue him. He's
Speaker 1: gonna know my name personally. It's like, yeah, well, if
Speaker 1: there's ever, I don't know. So he's trying to say
Speaker 1: it's a witch hunt. But it gets better because Trump
Speaker 1: finally he actually responded to this this new update, and
Speaker 1: I put a photo in the dock so you can
Speaker 1: see the Donald Trump blog. There's this long word vomit
Speaker 1: is what the post is in response to the case
Speaker 1: going criminal. The two things underneath are what the normal
Speaker 1: length of entries are for the desk of Donald trump
Speaker 1: block site. This thing looks like a panic attack in
Speaker 1: text form, like you can just tell just compared to
Speaker 1: the other things. It can't even zoom in enough to
Speaker 1: like see it all on one page. Okay, well I'll
Speaker 1: just I'll tell you what the highlights are throughout this
Speaker 1: fucking tome of nonsense. Not a thing a paragraph break,
Speaker 1: by the way, no one, not one stone of ship.
Speaker 1: It looks like a text you get from like that
Speaker 1: homie and you're like, oh fun, You're like this long.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, y'all just need to break up. So
Speaker 1: it says, quote, there's no mistake more corrupt or there's
Speaker 1: nothing more corrupt than an investigation that is desperate search
Speaker 1: of a crime. But make no mistake, that is exactly
Speaker 1: what is happening here. The Attorney General of New York
Speaker 1: literally campaign I broughtly getting Donald Trump third person, even
Speaker 1: before she knew anything about me. What you didn't know
Speaker 1: anything about Literally everybody knew everything about you. You were
Speaker 1: the president at the time, multiple documentaries about the fucking
Speaker 1: alleged fraud that you've committed, and people been like, yo,
Speaker 1: he's screwed me out of money. Fun this guy, he
Speaker 1: goes on. This is something that happens in failed third
Speaker 1: world countries the United States. If you can run for
Speaker 1: a prosecutor's office pledging to take out your enemies and
Speaker 1: be elected to that job by partisan voters who wished
Speaker 1: to enact political retribution, then we are no long younger
Speaker 1: of reconstitutional democracy. The District Attorney's office has been going
Speaker 1: after me for years based on a lying, discredited low
Speaker 1: life who has not listening to a given credibility for
Speaker 1: other prosecutional offices, and sent it to three years in
Speaker 1: prison for lying on other events unrelated to me. That's
Speaker 1: I mean, literally that's just a fucking tip of this
Speaker 1: fucking shit burg that he posted. It's it's all witch
Speaker 1: hunt ship, right, It's all witch hunt ship. It's it is.
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's really weird to see Trump pros
Speaker 1: when I'm so used to like Trump high coups from
Speaker 1: Twitter or it's just like illegal crimes, witch hunt, very unfair.
Speaker 1: And then but to see like a thing written out
Speaker 1: in full, albeit scrambled sentences is really weird. It seems
Speaker 1: like somebody wrote this for him or gave he was
Speaker 1: pulling from something, because the sentences are far too full.
Speaker 1: Uh and uh that he just has put them all
Speaker 1: in one long jumble. I mean, but he did say
Speaker 1: other attorney generals general attorneys general. I think there's something
Speaker 1: to that. But the beginning feels very Trump when he says,
Speaker 1: I have just learned through leaks in the mainstream media
Speaker 1: what it was a news story that came out full,
Speaker 1: they leaked it to the Because he loves he just
Speaker 1: has to use all his hot words like leaks due
Speaker 1: to leaks in the mainstream Antifa media that that have
Speaker 1: been canceled cultured into a civil and criminal case, like
Speaker 1: what the funk? So you know, go on, panic on,
Speaker 1: because this is just the so many he has some
Speaker 1: there's a case in Georgia too, let's not forget that, right,
Speaker 1: and all the other fucking civil cases. People are personally
Speaker 1: personally suing him, including his own sister and many like
Speaker 1: uh ag and Carol. He has so many he just
Speaker 1: doesn't pay anyone, Like he'll like hire contractor and he
Speaker 1: just doesn't pay them. Yeah, alright, it's now time for
Speaker 1: the story. We've all been waiting for cicadas. We we
Speaker 1: knew brood what I had been calling brood X, but
Speaker 1: apparently Brewed ten his They're coming out into the world.
Speaker 1: Uh it's ten. Yeah, I know, man, I'm looking like
Speaker 1: I'm x X yeah. Yeah, no, this is Brewed X. Well,
Speaker 1: NPR is calling it Brewed ten. MPR also called him
Speaker 1: Malcolm ten. So that way. So, these cicadas are coming out,
Speaker 1: and they are on their way out. As they get
Speaker 1: closer to like sexual maturity, which is when they come out,
Speaker 1: their body gives off some sort of chemical marker that
Speaker 1: then causes this fungus too like mature rapidly. As they're
Speaker 1: coming through the ground, it infects them. They're insides basically
Speaker 1: get replaced with what appears to be like any racer,
Speaker 1: like a pencil eracer that's just absolutely packed with spores
Speaker 1: of this fungus, and it is full of amphetamines and
Speaker 1: psilocybin uh. And they spend the whole time that they're
Speaker 1: out just high, out of their minds, incredibly horny, and
Speaker 1: just trying to mate with anything that moves uh and
Speaker 1: therefore spreading the fungus around to others. Kada's it's wild.
Speaker 1: Can you explain that? Well? I actually I just did
Speaker 1: a podcast on Creature Feature with Marl Wilson about brude
Speaker 1: X recently, and yeah, it's really interesting. My my sister
Speaker 1: in law just sent me this article this morning. I
Speaker 1: guess everyone knows that I would want to hear about
Speaker 1: this and talk about it. The fungus are one of
Speaker 1: the few sort of like dangers to cicadas as they
Speaker 1: are underground and await their emergence after seventeen years of
Speaker 1: developing underground. So they their life cycle is basically, they
Speaker 1: legs the eggs, you know, fall down onto the ground,
Speaker 1: and the larva goes and burrows underground. They take seventeen
Speaker 1: years to mature and then after the seventeen years they
Speaker 1: all simultaneously emerge and start sucking each other and then
Speaker 1: the cycle begins again. But these fun guy will infect
Speaker 1: the cicadas while they're underground, and then as they come up,
Speaker 1: you know, they then like as they make that final
Speaker 1: molt into their adult forms, the fungus causes their butts
Speaker 1: to fall off, and then it replaces that entire area
Speaker 1: where their genitals and the rear end of their abdomen
Speaker 1: would be with like this weird like white, chalky, packed
Speaker 1: and sports just like Jack said, and it releases a wait,
Speaker 1: how did they funk if they got? No, But they
Speaker 1: can't but they try, but don't try in that way?
Speaker 1: How do they procreate for the next site? They don't.
Speaker 1: They don't. There's not it's not like the whole population
Speaker 1: has the the infection. It's just a small Oh got
Speaker 1: so some are freaky No, but I mean they're they're
Speaker 1: so they're There are so many cicadas. There's like hundreds
Speaker 1: and hundreds of like I actually think like millions of
Speaker 1: cicadas that come out. Because her majesty, she's from the DC,
Speaker 1: Maryland area, and she was saying how people are already
Speaker 1: wrapping their trees and ship like to prepare for this
Speaker 1: because they don't want their trees to become like cicada
Speaker 1: fuck parties and things like that, and them in like
Speaker 1: something romantic, just aromatic aromatherapy set and some tasty lubes. No,
Speaker 1: I just like they're trying to protect their problem. Pretty
Speaker 1: it's just wild to me, like because like being in
Speaker 1: Japan all the time as a kid, cicadas are just
Speaker 1: a very normal part of like this summer soundscape. Like
Speaker 1: in fact, something's wrong if I don't hear cicadas, you know, screaming. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's when the aliens have come, right, But this is
Speaker 1: funny like too, Now when over here we have this
Speaker 1: one that's like every seventeen years, it's like the fucking pestilence.
Speaker 1: It's more than every seventeen years, because so these are
Speaker 1: there are multiple species and multiple groups of these cicadas,
Speaker 1: so you will have even the one group so like
Speaker 1: this Brewed X will only emerge every seventeen years, but
Speaker 1: there's like another group of cicadas that are slightly out
Speaker 1: of sync with that one, so you get every few years,
Speaker 1: you get a giant amount of cicadas coming out geographic
Speaker 1: like is there like Brewed X like takes over the
Speaker 1: East Coast and then brood whatever the fun. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's not that huge of like a geographical chunk, but
Speaker 1: certainly like there's you'll have maybe cicadas in like this area,
Speaker 1: and and there's once in this area. But also if
Speaker 1: there are different species, those can those can um differ.
Speaker 1: They can be in the same region. But yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I mean I don't think it's like, uh, you do
Speaker 1: get that regional difference in terms of which are emerging
Speaker 1: at what time, But it's not like it's not like
Speaker 1: on the West Coast we get it every ten years
Speaker 1: and then on the East Coast they get it every seven.
Speaker 1: It's it's much so more diversified than that one question
Speaker 1: I had because this just raises like something that I
Speaker 1: think is interesting about drug use in general, is that
Speaker 1: like when when we take drugs, it's not like the
Speaker 1: powder from the ecstasy we take is going into our
Speaker 1: brain and like the little powder molecules are like going
Speaker 1: in there. It's like it's causing your brain to make
Speaker 1: its own drugs, right, Like that's what that's what this
Speaker 1: fungus does, is it causes the cicadas to make psilocybin
Speaker 1: and amphetamines and like they basically are like pumped full
Speaker 1: of those, but it's like by their own body. So
Speaker 1: it just made me wonder, like, are there examples of
Speaker 1: throughout human history where they think like, oh, they were
Speaker 1: probably like that was probably a massive wave of some
Speaker 1: infection that made everybody like start tripping for like a
Speaker 1: for an entire summer or something. Yeah, I mean I
Speaker 1: think you mentioned this, uh in the dock, But there's
Speaker 1: that the rye orgat um, which is that fungus that
Speaker 1: grows on rye, which when cooked into bread and ingested,
Speaker 1: can cause all sorts of health problems, but also has
Speaker 1: hallucinogenic effects. And so that's been speculated to be behind
Speaker 1: some of the Salem witch trials of those girls like
Speaker 1: accusing their natures of being witches and they believed what
Speaker 1: they were seeing. Yeah, and uh, Justin producer Justin just
Speaker 1: pointed out that this is something I had heard about.
Speaker 1: I had never heard it attributed to a fungus. But
Speaker 1: the dancing plague, the thing where people couldn't stop dancing
Speaker 1: and some of them danced until they died people, I
Speaker 1: believe that was caused by a fungal infection. So that's
Speaker 1: that sounds very similar actually danced until their butts fell off, right,
Speaker 1: Because if they're eating this like rie fungus and it
Speaker 1: produces this like ergotamin, and then that ingestion of it
Speaker 1: can cause hallucinations and uh. In terms of medical conditions, though,
Speaker 1: there are medical conditions where you can make yourself get
Speaker 1: drunk not drinking any alcohol. It's called auto brewery syndrome
Speaker 1: or gut fermentation syndrome. So ethanol is actually produced by
Speaker 1: fermentation by fungi or bacteria in the g I system,
Speaker 1: And you don't have to drink anything. You know, you
Speaker 1: just eat normally and then you have like this abnormal
Speaker 1: gut bacteria or yeast or fun guy that is creating
Speaker 1: basically beer. So you get drunk, your stomach turns into
Speaker 1: a Bruno bag from prist where whatever you eat is
Speaker 1: now like dude, that's booze. Now Like how a many
Speaker 1: times have people like gotten d I swear anything you
Speaker 1: can't you could get out of a d u I
Speaker 1: if you have this medical condition, I think I've actually
Speaker 1: read a case of that, Like someone your sauceper just kim,
Speaker 1: I'm telling you'a got the brewer's stomach. What alright, alright,
Speaker 1: you're driving a fucking school bus man. I mean, there's
Speaker 1: got to be a lawyer who specializes in that. It's
Speaker 1: just like I was. He likes to pull rabbits out
Speaker 1: of a hat, and he only takes on cases where
Speaker 1: he knows is It's like, oh right, yeah, you do
Speaker 1: have auto brewery syndrome. Okay, I'll take this case. Do
Speaker 1: you or someone you love have auto brewery syndrome? You
Speaker 1: may get money in a settlement. Yeah, we need you
Speaker 1: to get pulled over for a d u y first. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So this is all sorts of straight. One thing that
Speaker 1: I will just note in case anyone's getting any big
Speaker 1: ideas about going out and eating any cicadas they see,
Speaker 1: uh with their asses blown off by a plug of sports.
Speaker 1: So the scientists are saying in this NPR article there's
Speaker 1: always a risk in eating cicadas pumped filled with amphetamines.
Speaker 1: That was just a grand under statement. That was just
Speaker 1: one of a thousand compounds we found in the cicadas,
Speaker 1: and we don't know what those other compounds are capable
Speaker 1: of doing to humans. I'm sorry, man, this is gonna
Speaker 1: be the new tide pods. Well, but people already eat
Speaker 1: cicadas during these mass cicada blooms, like they put them
Speaker 1: for ice cream before the trippy as sports. Yeah they don't.
Speaker 1: I think it's irrelevant to the trippy as sports. It's
Speaker 1: just like, oh, this is a fun event, like a
Speaker 1: local ice cream store may like put candied cicadas. But
Speaker 1: I'm talking about like me, if I'm seventeen right now
Speaker 1: and I'm reading that their butts are filled with psilocybin
Speaker 1: and and amphetamines, I'm like, bro, we gotta see if that, Yeah,
Speaker 1: something happened. I mean it's yeah, it's like psilocybin is
Speaker 1: the same chemical found in psychedelic mushrooms. But I think
Speaker 1: he'd be safer off doing psychedelic mushrooms. Yeah, but again,
Speaker 1: this is for kids. I'm putting myself in an idiot
Speaker 1: kid mode and I'm hearing there's free drugs in the
Speaker 1: cicada assholes. My friend from Dayton, when I moved to
Speaker 1: Lexing in Kentucky, he came down to visit me. We're
Speaker 1: good friends, but like not such good friends that I
Speaker 1: was just a little like, wow, he like wants to
Speaker 1: stay for a week and then made us like go
Speaker 1: out into horse fields and look for psilocybin, mushroom under
Speaker 1: ship piles, in in a horse and cattle fields. Kids
Speaker 1: will do anything to get high, but don't scientists say
Speaker 1: don't because we never ate them. I wouldn't let him
Speaker 1: eat any of the any of the you don't. The
Speaker 1: thing is, I don't think you want to just eat
Speaker 1: a mystery mushroom. Probably not good for you. I mean,
Speaker 1: like what I was talking about that right, erg it
Speaker 1: um Not only could it cause hallucinogenic effects, but ergotism
Speaker 1: with repeated ingestion of it, which could cause gain green
Speaker 1: and convulsion, So people's like skin and digits falling off
Speaker 1: in convulsions. So I don't know. I don't know what
Speaker 1: we know about this butt fungus, but I wouldn't mess
Speaker 1: around with it personally. Kids do not smoke cicata? Ass
Speaker 1: Is that even a combination like that? People do? Like
Speaker 1: I know that M D M A and ampheta means
Speaker 1: is ecstasy, but like is mushrooms and ampheta means like
Speaker 1: a umbo? But that's not that's not that's not one
Speaker 1: you really want to. Like, Yeah, beam up and have
Speaker 1: a full on It's like okay, space and have an
Speaker 1: anxiety attack. They seem incongruous. All right, let's take a
Speaker 1: quick break and we will be right back. And we're back.
Speaker 1: So first of all, I just want to uh address
Speaker 1: some of my critics, some of the haters out there. Now.
Speaker 1: There's been a bunch of people who I think took
Speaker 1: our discussion on the sixty minutes UFO report to be
Speaker 1: me being like, there's definitely aliens are aliens out there,
Speaker 1: and I am just interested in how inexplicable this all seems.
Speaker 1: And a reasonable explanation that I've heard is that the
Speaker 1: US military industrial complexes out of the enemies to scare
Speaker 1: people with, and so they're like staging this to be like, Yo,
Speaker 1: we need worse weapons, we need better weapons past to
Speaker 1: make them because they're aliens out there. We don't know,
Speaker 1: but we're all funked up off, like Cicada asked, and
Speaker 1: we're like, Nah, don't foc with our alien homies. But
Speaker 1: I'm I'm interested in any and all explanations that y'all
Speaker 1: think are interesting and plausible. Uh, hit me with them.
Speaker 1: I some people are hitting me with This has already
Speaker 1: been thoroughly explained here. And then it's like a forty
Speaker 1: minute YouTube video or it's like a page with ninety
Speaker 1: videos debunking various sightings that aren't the one that we
Speaker 1: talked about. But I I do just want to say
Speaker 1: I have no doubt there are false positives. Like I
Speaker 1: once saw what looked like a glowing gas cloud hovering
Speaker 1: at what appeared to be like thirty feet over Santa
Speaker 1: Monica in the night sky, and it turned out to
Speaker 1: be an exhaust plume that was like miles up and
Speaker 1: catching some light coming over the horizon after the sun
Speaker 1: had set on the ground, and it was like one
Speaker 1: of the weirdest things I've ever seen. But it was
Speaker 1: like from a SpaceX launch that apparently they happen all
Speaker 1: the time. Like there's all sorts of weird explanations and
Speaker 1: cool ship that you can see that looks very alien.
Speaker 1: I just want explanations. I just I think it's very
Speaker 1: the the UFO doesn't mean alien spacecraft, it just means
Speaker 1: unidentified flying objects. Me it's too dumb to know what
Speaker 1: the funk that is, right, And so I think that
Speaker 1: I mean, there's probably a lot of like you know,
Speaker 1: false reports of UFO where you know you have you know,
Speaker 1: you think you see something and you don't or or something.
Speaker 1: But but I think a lot of them are real
Speaker 1: sightings of something. I don't think it's personally. I don't
Speaker 1: think aliens, you know, would would bother to come all
Speaker 1: the way here just to like you know, dip around
Speaker 1: and do cool kick flips and then leave. But although
Speaker 1: now that I sit out loud, it says kind of something.
Speaker 1: Videos look like the aliens they just come up with
Speaker 1: our fighters and like aliens jackass, right, the fighter jets
Speaker 1: are like the cops running after them with But yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean there are a lot of I know, there
Speaker 1: are a lot of like meteorological phenomenon that can result
Speaker 1: in seeing things that look like objects or spheres or
Speaker 1: bright lights. Like there's I think something called a sun
Speaker 1: dog where you get this like weird geometric pattern of
Speaker 1: light when you're at a certain place, in a certain elevation,
Speaker 1: with certain kind of weather phenomenon, and you know, like
Speaker 1: there's always space junk falling to Earth, like old satellites, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, fallen down. You really doesn't hit anything, but
Speaker 1: you could definitely see something weird in the sky, which
Speaker 1: is like you know, space junk coming at you. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: for sure, all right, anyways hit us with explanations. Uh,
Speaker 1: but only ones that prove the existence of aliens. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I need the arrival. I'm on the other side of
Speaker 1: this with the with the Havana syndrome. I think that
Speaker 1: is like having people's brains. But like, that's another one
Speaker 1: where I read everything that comes out about that because
Speaker 1: I find it interesting that we still like don't fully
Speaker 1: understand what's going on there. I appreciate you're not bringing
Speaker 1: up the new case near DC. Yeah, yeah, I definitely.
Speaker 1: I definitely think there are aliens in the universe. I
Speaker 1: think statistically speaking, that's very likely. I just think statistically speaking,
Speaker 1: them managing to find us very unlikely, but not impossible. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they'll find us, like three million years after we've just
Speaker 1: right ourselves. They're like, oh damn, Like like, yo, have
Speaker 1: y'all seen this place? Oh my god, what did they
Speaker 1: do here? Why that choogy planet? Dig up some like
Speaker 1: museum and they'll be like, don't look, don't look. That's
Speaker 1: so depressing. Alright, let's talk about Kendall Jenner and uh sorry,
Speaker 1: and celebrity tequila in general. It's all funked up, and
Speaker 1: I just you know, shout out to the absolute worst
Speaker 1: representative of the San Fernando Valley. Kendall Jenner, you fucking
Speaker 1: clown the launch of tequila, the sacred zip code of
Speaker 1: the valley. You turn it into a fucking tequila brand.
Speaker 1: All right, that's a separate issue, okay, And that's my
Speaker 1: own personal ship. But this now, she did a photo
Speaker 1: shoot in Jalisco where the distillery for her new tequila companies,
Speaker 1: and the photo shoot in the video of it is
Speaker 1: as about as sensitive as Kendall Jenner can be in
Speaker 1: an ad for a beverage. It's completely joined the conversation.
Speaker 1: She look people are accusing her of all kinds of
Speaker 1: cultural appropriation that they're not feeling her, like sort of
Speaker 1: ponytail braids that she's rocking the just like the vibe
Speaker 1: with her and like the Himada is like the guys
Speaker 1: who are in the fields, like actually cutting the agave
Speaker 1: and things like that. So, you know, I think, whatever
Speaker 1: you look at it, what is very clear is this
Speaker 1: ship is just such a transparent attempt to paint her
Speaker 1: or this product is like authentic in any way rather
Speaker 1: than it looking like a chill White Savior influencer shoot.
Speaker 1: But this is the whole thing. This whole tequila brand
Speaker 1: has been fucking up since she announced it, Like her
Speaker 1: first misstep A was labeling the tequila ship like blanco
Speaker 1: tequila tequila or repulsado tequila, where you know, if you're
Speaker 1: actually going to respect the Spanish language, it would be
Speaker 1: tequila blanco or tequila and jevo or tequila ship. Putting
Speaker 1: blanco tequila, people were like, you fucking appropriating, motherfucker. You
Speaker 1: can't even respect the fucking language to label the product
Speaker 1: that is something coming from Mexico. On top of agave
Speaker 1: being a very important plant culturally, you know, there's just
Speaker 1: a lot of just a lot of weird, dicky ship
Speaker 1: going on with the whole celebrity tequila vibe. On top
Speaker 1: of that, HeLa blanco, it's blanco tequila. It's super blanco,
Speaker 1: a f real blanco tequila. Parafabore yea for her favorite
Speaker 1: poor anyway, it'll say poor po you are favor for
Speaker 1: a Spanish so they One top of that, we're finding
Speaker 1: out that I didn't know this, but there's a this
Speaker 1: distillery that her tequila comes out of is like very
Speaker 1: well known and it is basically like a build a
Speaker 1: bear shop for celebrity tequila. So this is like a
Speaker 1: lot of tequila experts saying, like, so each bottle of
Speaker 1: tequila will have like a certain number that and that
Speaker 1: designates it to a very specific distillery because that's how
Speaker 1: they regulate like the actual production of like authentic tequila
Speaker 1: and things like that, And a lot of these places
Speaker 1: come from a very specific distillery, like sixty tequilas come
Speaker 1: out of here, like whereas where you have things like
Speaker 1: Patron or other brands, they only come out of this
Speaker 1: one distillery. So this is from a tequila expert saying, quote, basically,
Speaker 1: they just make barrels and barrels and barrels of tequila,
Speaker 1: and celebrities come in and literally pick a barrel, so
Speaker 1: they're not There might be a little of a little
Speaker 1: bit of a difference between brands, like one is aged
Speaker 1: in French oak and another's age in American oak, but
Speaker 1: essentially it's exactly the same bottle and the celebrity just
Speaker 1: buys that and then they just use their marketing and
Speaker 1: their branding to sell it to you. Well, you're paying
Speaker 1: for is the celebrity affiliation and not the quality of tequila.
Speaker 1: There's also just concerns about like how these people are
Speaker 1: paid because the cost of a gob Is skyrocket is
Speaker 1: since like the celebrity tequila boom, and there's like a
Speaker 1: shortage too, so all of it's very fucked up. All
Speaker 1: that to say, why don't you like buy a real
Speaker 1: authentic ship, because there are small, small makers of tequila
Speaker 1: that are even being squeezed out because a gove prices
Speaker 1: are becoming so high in Mexico. So yeah, just a
Speaker 1: very dark look into tequila. And even like, you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about, Miles, I care
Speaker 1: so much about mio amigoes, Mio amigos. This is also
Speaker 1: happening in the um ghost kitchen world, like where like
Speaker 1: there's been these massive like burger chans that have launched
Speaker 1: based only on the concept that you can order a
Speaker 1: burger close to you, and it's a affiliated with like
Speaker 1: some fucking TikTok influencer. It's yeah, this kind of shameless
Speaker 1: use of celebrity branding to sell you identical shit is
Speaker 1: It's fine, Like I you know, like the yeah and
Speaker 1: the placebo effect is real if it makes you feel
Speaker 1: like George Clooney to drink his fucking tequila, Hell yeah, dude,
Speaker 1: Like that's but also like that's what you're chasing. I mean,
Speaker 1: but if that's what you're chasing, that's great. I just
Speaker 1: don't think you're better than the people who like seek
Speaker 1: out Guy Fieri's restaurants or you know, like because they
Speaker 1: have his name on the wall, or like that's the
Speaker 1: same ship. Like you're that that's exactly what you're doing.
Speaker 1: And and so you have been to Gordon Ramsey's restaurant
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas. It's actually legit, it's very good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, Yeah I shouldn't have used I shouldn't have
Speaker 1: used a celebrity chef because yeah, and Guy Ferrea has
Speaker 1: Guy Fietti sorry, Thankfetti, thank you has an actual like
Speaker 1: a tourists take on how food should be prepared. So
Speaker 1: that was a terrible example. Don't think you're better than
Speaker 1: people who order food from the Rapper Tigers delivery only
Speaker 1: restaurant featuring chicken bites, or Steve Aoki's virtual pizza joint
Speaker 1: called Pizza Okey, Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville. Well, they are the
Speaker 1: same people who eat it Margariteville. I was watching, um
Speaker 1: I got we got a Margaritaville cookbook. For Christmas, and uh,
Speaker 1: we watched the Margaritaville cookbook companion video and the chef
Speaker 1: that wrote the Margaritaville cookbook was clearly he's clearly just
Speaker 1: a chef who has like no experience being like a
Speaker 1: personality at all. So he's just kind of staring at
Speaker 1: the camera with a bunch of like chopped up onions
Speaker 1: and some raw fish, and he's like, so the margarita
Speaker 1: Ville lifestyle is being relaxed on the beach. You know,
Speaker 1: it's like party but on the beach with sand and
Speaker 1: your toes reel loosen, relaxed. And I made these the
Speaker 1: shrimp dish. It's very Margarita because it's so relaxed on
Speaker 1: the beach. This is no fun. I don't want to
Speaker 1: go to this sad town. This he was going to cry,
Speaker 1: like this is what This is not what he had
Speaker 1: imagined a chef. No, God, does anyone picture themselves being
Speaker 1: like dad? When I grow up, I want to be
Speaker 1: the head chef of Margharita Ville. I'll be a chef
Speaker 1: and a brand ambassador. I'm going to shaker of salt
Speaker 1: tortilla chips. Fuck, fuck, really fucked this whole thing up. Life.

Speaker 1: playing around in calculate calculator apps. Some of these numbers
Speaker 1: are huge. This is kind of a bitter sweet one.
Speaker 1: Matthew Beefmaster tweeted, just logged into my dad's phone and

Speaker 1: That's why, like I I will keep up. There's one
Speaker 1: Google Voice account because I have a couple a couple
Speaker 1: of voicemails from like homies that passed away, and like,
Speaker 1: I just it's like the one place I'm like, ah,
Speaker 1: yes there are baby. The last joke my grandpa made

Speaker 1: brought up was too drunk and like was not interesting

Speaker 1: thought you were interesting, but you're just drunk. And then
Speaker 1: like but just like moved through about five people and
Speaker 1: every one of them was fascinating. Like that is like
Speaker 1: superpower that he has just an ability to find people
Speaker 1: like the Bill Gates impersonator. I really do want to
Speaker 1: see him do more performances though, because I know he's
Speaker 1: kind of been more like a produceral lately and he's
Speaker 1: but like, God, I know that he doesn't want to
Speaker 1: like keep doing Nathan for you, and he wants to
Speaker 1: in that, you know, gracefully, But I want him to
