Speaker 1: a bubble here am ak Uh. That baby is disgusting. Uh.
Speaker 1: That is courtesy of pick Class and sight Class and
Speaker 1: my three year old. Uh. And I'm thrilled to be
Speaker 1: joined by my co host, Mr Miles grab who thinks
Speaker 1: that Dave Fance slaps, who twists up some nice blunts,
Speaker 1: wraps me? Do me do? Who smokes weeding games at night?

Speaker 1: All Right? You know we're talking with stone Cutters and
Speaker 1: the the discord went off. Shout out to Hay Skippy O.
Speaker 1: Shout out to Rory the scrivener for putting that one
Speaker 1: together for me. Maybe, Lady beauty and up the rhythm, Miles.
Speaker 1: We are fortunate, thrilled, overwhelmed to in our third seat,
Speaker 1: completely unworthy by the brilliant the talented Roy Would Junior. Well, Hello, well, welcome, welcome,
Speaker 1: Who is dead with noisy child, who has child, won't
Speaker 1: shut the funk up? How old your child before I'm
Speaker 1: being a mean father. I love him and he's the
Speaker 1: best thing that ever happened to me. Blah blah blah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Do you have those moments where you I'm Jack as well,
Speaker 1: like where your comedy brain and your parent brain come
Speaker 1: at Audrey, like, I can't let this lyric go and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say something like this pay as kid won't
Speaker 1: shut the like, but I love him, but also had
Speaker 1: to do the bid. But you know why you have
Speaker 1: to say that disclaim at the end of a kid
Speaker 1: joke because some people, what do you mean? Is it
Speaker 1: worth a disclaimer? Yeah? It is. Because also we're the
Speaker 1: first generation where our kids will be able to like
Speaker 1: there's a whole digital law that everything I've ever said
Speaker 1: about him? Yeah yeah, And I don't want him to
Speaker 1: stumble across this episode and just here if he goes
Speaker 1: won't shut the funk up your Yeah, I was. There's
Speaker 1: that Michael Keaton movie in my life where he is
Speaker 1: about to die and like his wife's pregnant, I think,
Speaker 1: or like they have an infant, and so he like
Speaker 1: records a bunch of home video. I could die now,
Speaker 1: like I could die and have eight more kids, and
Speaker 1: like they'd be fine because they could just put together,
Speaker 1: like they could black mirror a version of me with
Speaker 1: all the ship that we've recorded on this they totally
Speaker 1: program a robot that was to say, thought, Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: a very good point, Miles. Well they could deep fake
Speaker 1: a robot with your face by the time your kid
Speaker 1: is right, yeah, you just know me as a zoo
Speaker 1: as dad on zoom. Yeah. And to your point about
Speaker 1: this generation kids like we don't, we don't. There's very
Speaker 1: few times we could present receipts to our parents about
Speaker 1: how they sucked us up, like literally, like here's the
Speaker 1: fucking audio tape of what you said you remember them.
Speaker 1: And now it's like, um, I was listening to episode
Speaker 1: of your podcast that you used to do forty years ago.
Speaker 1: We're saying our parents are literally a mystery. Yeahnyhing younger
Speaker 1: than age six, You just I don't know. Your parents
Speaker 1: all have like eight photos that confirm his moments before you.
Speaker 1: That's all they got right, right, right, And they're so
Speaker 1: good at editing the like useful memories out of like
Speaker 1: they're like, no, that never happened. Actually I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't remember that, and you were a dumb kid, So
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with my memory over yours. Alright, Broy,
Speaker 1: We're gonna get to know you a little bit better
Speaker 1: in a moment. First, we're gonna tell our listeners a
Speaker 1: couple of the things we're talking about. We're gonna talk
Speaker 1: about some of the children reactions yesterday, put that in
Speaker 1: a little more context, and how they're criminalizing protest. We're
Speaker 1: gonna talk about whether Quimby is back fingers crossed somehow.
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about some new frat sickles that are
Speaker 1: hit in the market, the old ster fashion takeover that's happening,
Speaker 1: all of that plenty more. But first, Roy, we like
Speaker 1: to ask our guest, what is something from your search
Speaker 1: history that's revealing about who you are? You know, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna give you something even better than that. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: give you my YouTube, recently watched video perfect. I will
Speaker 1: not give you pornhope, but I will give you recently
Speaker 1: watched videos. YouTube is where I go for tutorials just
Speaker 1: to learn how to do stuff, how to stop Internet
Speaker 1: Explorer from redirecting to Microsoft Edge Girl with that Internet
Speaker 1: is Lionel Richie's girl a friend too young for him?
Speaker 1: I don't know why I like that MLB twenty one
Speaker 1: Road to the Show. I just bought that so I
Speaker 1: watched all of the gamers play the game that I'm
Speaker 1: about to play, so I have a little bit more
Speaker 1: familiarity about that. A gang of black women comedians. I'm
Speaker 1: starting to get back out on the road, so I'm
Speaker 1: trying to figure out who's funny out there, and you know,
Speaker 1: you know, get to working with some new people. I
Speaker 1: like new new faces on the road with me. It's
Speaker 1: how I stayed fresh. The BGS You should be Dancing
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy six version, high quality audio. Damn, that's eclectic.
Speaker 1: It's not like a single thread that you're following through there.
Speaker 1: That's like that. I can screen grab this. I could
Speaker 1: screen grab this. The YouTube video I listened to right
Speaker 1: after the BGS three six Mafia Popping my Collar instrumental.
Speaker 1: Oh the instrumental? Yes? Oh yeah, Oh dude. I am
Speaker 1: deep into hip hop instrumentals, especially South Ship from the
Speaker 1: nineties because I'm from Alabama, so that's like the soundtrack
Speaker 1: of my childhood. Bro. I mean, we're so were you
Speaker 1: just you put the beat on, and you gave yourself
Speaker 1: your own never since I can't remember, I've been popping
Speaker 1: my collar, popping, popping like so hip hop instrumentals. That's
Speaker 1: when you really started appreciating the little nuances of production.
Speaker 1: To me, many fresh, it's the master of random laser right,
Speaker 1: like just just weird pum pum ship happening underneath the
Speaker 1: little Wayne verse from the ship is amazing. It is
Speaker 1: a thousand percent amazing. But that's pretty much what it is.
Speaker 1: Um a gang of comedians, a lot of gospel music
Speaker 1: and rap instrumentals. That's pretty much how I roll. I
Speaker 1: like it. I wish that it was something more weird. No,
Speaker 1: that's perfect now. I think that's a glimpse because sometimes
Speaker 1: you'll just be like, I don't know, measure, drink tape,
Speaker 1: I'm moving, and they're like, okay next. And then there's
Speaker 1: also a run of slavery movie videos that I was watching.
Speaker 1: I'm working on a bit about white people who played
Speaker 1: slave masters in black struggle movies. Because I have what
Speaker 1: I'm workshopping a joke. I have to bait a test
Speaker 1: the thread of it. The theory has to hold water
Speaker 1: first before I can explore the funny. So I have
Speaker 1: to be like digging a crate and find the most
Speaker 1: iconic white actors being horrible and figure out which one
Speaker 1: was the best, like the DJ premier of Looking for
Speaker 1: a White Savior and white demon portrayals and film just
Speaker 1: dusty fingers going through the craze. The theory of the
Speaker 1: bid is that no white person ever gets nominated for
Speaker 1: awards for playing a slave master because the assumption is
Speaker 1: that there wasn't much of a trance formation that had
Speaker 1: to take place. Right, But I'm not gonna bore you
Speaker 1: with the nuts and bolts of a comedy joke that
Speaker 1: I haven't even proven it's funny yet, but that's pretty
Speaker 1: much within in my history and a Gang of Cubs highlights.
Speaker 1: So yeah, no, grateful for the glimpse into your progress, though,
Speaker 1: for sure wait for and with MLB the show. I
Speaker 1: used to like to play a lot of baseball games,
Speaker 1: but like over the years, I think there was about
Speaker 1: a five year gap where I missed the game and
Speaker 1: I came back in and the batting was so complex
Speaker 1: for me. I was like, Okay, You've got to go
Speaker 1: back there. It's like, that's why I don't work with
Speaker 1: two K. I don't play NBA two K for the
Speaker 1: same reason. I don't have time to learn this analog
Speaker 1: shooting ship. I'm sorry. And then if I try to
Speaker 1: switch it to button mode, apparently that's like having the
Speaker 1: bumpers up at a bowling alley and then people clowning you.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Yeah, I'm used to holding the button and
Speaker 1: releasing at the height to get my shot off. That's
Speaker 1: what I do. The show. The show makes it hard.
Speaker 1: It's like Apple, when you ate your Mac or your iPhone.
Speaker 1: You have to go through the settings to find the
Speaker 1: way your ship used to be to put it back
Speaker 1: like that. But no, the show. The show is great
Speaker 1: man that. But then I also never took that five
Speaker 1: year gap that you're talking about when NBA Live. When
Speaker 1: they started making NBA Lives, I think, oh, seven oh
Speaker 1: eight ish, somewhere in there, I stopped playing basketball games
Speaker 1: because two K came in with the stick and I
Speaker 1: was like, fuck you, I'm not gonna no, I'll just
Speaker 1: start playing Call of Duty now, And I just shifted
Speaker 1: to RPGs and stuff like that. Right. No, that's it.
Speaker 1: That's why I just like NBA Street will just sort
Speaker 1: of be at the height for me. I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we perfected NBA jam with Street and I can always
Speaker 1: hop back into that and still feel literate. Ronnie Chang
Speaker 1: showed me, like all of the slick ship that I've
Speaker 1: learned in my life. Ronnie Chang showed me those emulators
Speaker 1: and how to put in an classic Nintendo and Sega
Speaker 1: Genesis games on your matt book for free and playing
Speaker 1: with a PlayStation control. I was like, dude, I may
Speaker 1: not need a PS five. I'll go back and play
Speaker 1: some old school m VP Baseball from O two with
Speaker 1: Manny Ramirez on the cover. I'm happy you'll throw you
Speaker 1: off because you know, the rosters are a little weird,
Speaker 1: but Dave Ortiz is still playing. But fun. It's fun
Speaker 1: right right right? The Griffy Baseball is where my is
Speaker 1: where my baseball game knowledge? And how how does that
Speaker 1: stack up that? Yeah? Nintendo has always been terrible, well
Speaker 1: I always say terrible. They appealed to a different personality
Speaker 1: of sports fan, where this is fun and more arcade style.
Speaker 1: I want to control the price of the fun. Can
Speaker 1: hot dogs do exactly? You're firing because I fired my
Speaker 1: pitching coach in the middle of the season one year
Speaker 1: on the show because it's just because you can. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm definitely in that bucket of like I didn't get
Speaker 1: on the basketball team when I thought I should have energy,
Speaker 1: and now I'm using video games to explore that and
Speaker 1: exercise those demons. So I do like the more simulator
Speaker 1: type things. That's fair, Roy, What is something you think
Speaker 1: is overrated? I'm hesitant to say it. I'm going back
Speaker 1: and forth about whether or not this is what I
Speaker 1: was going to bring up. I believe that New York
Speaker 1: City pizza is overrated. M it's floppy thing, Chris. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's floppy thing, Chris. Pizza. Um, the sauce cheese ratio
Speaker 1: is not as good as a traditional pan or a
Speaker 1: deep dish. I say this as a full car carrying
Speaker 1: member of Team Detroit Style and Team Chicago Style. Pizza. Um.
Speaker 1: I know pizza is one of those serious things that
Speaker 1: Americans tend to draw the line, you know, with each
Speaker 1: other wrong. But I'm sorry, I just maybe maybe I'm
Speaker 1: just a basic bitch who was raised on pizza Hut
Speaker 1: in the South and I don't know no better. So
Speaker 1: maybe my palette isn't refined enough. But the way people
Speaker 1: it's a slice of New York pizza and it's just
Speaker 1: so nothing beta slicer. I can name five things right
Speaker 1: now what this slice of pizza. I do wonder if
Speaker 1: you're like the specific chain that was like your go
Speaker 1: to growing up, effects like what you are high end
Speaker 1: taste in pizza and absolutely absolutely, Oh that's a great observation.
Speaker 1: I grew up from Pizza Hut hand Toss, which is
Speaker 1: the closest you'll get to a Chicago style. And also
Speaker 1: keep in mind, I came up in a time I'm
Speaker 1: forty two for the listeners. I came up in a
Speaker 1: time where Pizza Hut was upper crust. There was there
Speaker 1: was no delivery. Literally, Pizza Hut did not deliver. Motherfu.
Speaker 1: Could you have to come here and sit the funk
Speaker 1: down right? And you want this pizza drink from those
Speaker 1: frosted glass red yeah. Yeah. And so the rise of Dominoes,
Speaker 1: the rise of Little Caesars, and you know, Pizza Hud
Speaker 1: had to eventually give in and start delivering. So they
Speaker 1: have to make the pizzas faster to meet demand and
Speaker 1: the quality than they got a little shaky. But yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's that's a fair observation, because that's what I
Speaker 1: always ran with. Did you funk with Pizza Hut's thing crust? No? No,
Speaker 1: I was never to Hut. That's when I diverged from
Speaker 1: Pizza Hut and went full Dominoes all the time. That's
Speaker 1: probably the only thing that me and my girl kind
Speaker 1: of You know, there's there's there's disagreements in any relationship,
Speaker 1: and then there's the ones where you know, wow, this
Speaker 1: is just a for real impasse. Right, she likes thin
Speaker 1: crust pizza. Okay, fine, but then she has such an
Speaker 1: eclectic palette that she'll get all the ship on the
Speaker 1: pizza and then these my frocks are rushing the pizza
Speaker 1: out of the oven. So the crust on the bottom
Speaker 1: isn't sturdy enough to hold a mushroom, onion, a green pepper,
Speaker 1: and child all this. It's too much ship on it,
Speaker 1: and it's good, but this isn't for think you have
Speaker 1: a hand tossed palette, and I can't get that through
Speaker 1: to her, like you need a sturdier crust foundation to
Speaker 1: uphold all of the different flavors that your palette demands.
Speaker 1: But she just likes the flakiness of the thin crust
Speaker 1: and it's all flimsy. It's like New York pizza with
Speaker 1: two more extra pounds and shot on the top, and
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just floppy. It's like a wet
Speaker 1: paper towel. At the end of the day, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think Jack, your thing holds up because I remember the
Speaker 1: March Madness basketball that will come from Pizza Hut in
Speaker 1: the early nineties, and you demand all your pizza comes
Speaker 1: with the basketball and the box to be so greasy
Speaker 1: that it can barely function as a box to hold
Speaker 1: the pizza. Like, that's definitely because I will always I
Speaker 1: always love a greasy as pan pizza from Pizza Hut.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't think. I think over the years
Speaker 1: of just hearing people argue so much over pizza, I'm
Speaker 1: just like, man, fuck saying whatever is good. Man, If
Speaker 1: you like what the fuck you like, like fine. But
Speaker 1: also I'll say what I like and I'll say what
Speaker 1: I don't like. But to act like no, it's just
Speaker 1: hard to rank at the end of the day, like
Speaker 1: it's it's it's just one of those things. It's a
Speaker 1: fool's Errand to try and really say one is better
Speaker 1: than the other. I feel like because it's just no
Speaker 1: one's going to agree. I don't know if it's still
Speaker 1: open post COVID, but it was a Chicago style spot
Speaker 1: in New York City, in the village or near the
Speaker 1: village called Emmetts. It's the only place in New York
Speaker 1: where you can get a Chicago style deep dish proper,
Speaker 1: Like you gotta wait forty five minutes for that thing.
Speaker 1: And I went and got one, and I brought it
Speaker 1: to the comedy seller to eat before the show, like
Speaker 1: that was gonna be my thing. And I got heckled
Speaker 1: out of there like my other comedians. How dare you
Speaker 1: eat Chicago style in a New York legendary established I'm
Speaker 1: like you, Motherfucker's don't even have pizza on the menu.
Speaker 1: You literally don't even sell it, right, what is gonna do? Yeah,
Speaker 1: so you know it is what it is. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I just I just think I think New York I
Speaker 1: just think it's overrated. I'm not saying I wouldn't eat
Speaker 1: it in a drunken pinch, but stopped acting like this
Speaker 1: is the measuring it by which to measure all pizza. Right,
Speaker 1: I'll also eat a little Caesar's Hot and ready in
Speaker 1: its entirety, and I have no palette, so I'm not
Speaker 1: going to reply right Oh. A listener said, have you
Speaker 1: ever got a crazy seasoning on your pizza at Little Caesar's. No,
Speaker 1: they will turn if you ask them. They will turn
Speaker 1: up your Hot and Ready with the crazy bread season.
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, you want us to dust it with it?
Speaker 1: And now you've got a fucking high bread, hot and
Speaker 1: ready crazy bread pizza. WHOA. I mean that sounds like
Speaker 1: what Dominoes did to turn up their pizza little but
Speaker 1: they do it like the whole thing. So yeah, that's
Speaker 1: why I like when the Z game comes to like
Speaker 1: you ever get it with the crazy season, I'm like,
Speaker 1: thank you so much for giving me the imagination to
Speaker 1: envision of you. Let's talk about some underrated grab and
Speaker 1: go pizza. Uh, it's hungry. Howe's there a Southern chain?
Speaker 1: I think they're sprinkled around the Midwest song. But they
Speaker 1: have four flavored crusts that ship. So they do the pizza.
Speaker 1: They hands ass that thing and then they brush it
Speaker 1: with the butter cheese sauce and now you have a
Speaker 1: butter cheese crusting your fingers. Tastes delicious on top of
Speaker 1: it I could talk pizza all day, dude. I also
Speaker 1: love a pizza chain that sounds like a pizza chain
Speaker 1: in a movie Hungry How it just sounds completely made up.
Speaker 1: That's also Funck pretzel bagels from Fanuel Hall in Boston.
Speaker 1: Too thick, too big. Well, now, Boston's usually even minded
Speaker 1: about any criticism about any of their cultural institutions, so
Speaker 1: you should be fun. It's not that it's nasty, it's
Speaker 1: just it's too it's too tall, but you have to
Speaker 1: have a porn jaw to open wide, and like you
Speaker 1: have to unhinge like a fucking boa constrictor to take
Speaker 1: a so you can never get an even bite. That's
Speaker 1: why when people have these fucking burgers that this is
Speaker 1: the big, super duper turkey bake it beast burger and weight.
Speaker 1: You can't bite it, bro so you're never getting all
Speaker 1: the flavors at once. But it's meat mountain, and you'll
Speaker 1: prove to your stepfather you are tough man versus food.
Speaker 1: I'm taking on food. And then after three seasons and like,
Speaker 1: look that ship, I want to live. Let me get
Speaker 1: somebody else to host this year. My doctor and family
Speaker 1: begged me to stop. I know, I know I got
Speaker 1: his friends with him. He's like a really cool dude.
Speaker 1: And I wondered that the first season of Man Versus Food,
Speaker 1: how long can he do this? How long? And I
Speaker 1: know that they would shoot the show and like, like,
Speaker 1: I guess, like over the course of two months, shoot
Speaker 1: the whole thing, and then the other ten months of
Speaker 1: the year. This guy eats picture of health. He's fucking exercising, right,
Speaker 1: he knows two months a year, I might die. There
Speaker 1: are moments when you'll see him mid challenge and he'll
Speaker 1: give up, Like his eyes will meet the camera and
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, this person is drowning. He's lost. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then they're like, but no, he found a way
Speaker 1: to get right back in it. But yeah, I mean, Adam,
Speaker 1: please please stay safe. How disappointed would you be if
Speaker 1: you were a fan of Man Versus Food and you
Speaker 1: saw that guy out in the off season. Come on, man,
Speaker 1: let's right, so I can sitting there with some kombucha
Speaker 1: and some tempate bacon fake bacon ship is crush. You'd
Speaker 1: be like the time I saw Too Short in the
Speaker 1: airport holding hands with his girlfriend. Really, I'm pro love,
Speaker 1: I love, but when you know too Short brand right,
Speaker 1: and then you just see him and he was like
Speaker 1: carrying her bag like it was cool to see. But
Speaker 1: then there's a party that goes, wait a minute, Santa
Speaker 1: is not real, right right? I thought you were. But
Speaker 1: it's funny though too. And he's like, oh yeah, that's
Speaker 1: all his performance. Sorry, and you're right, but Short, okay,
Speaker 1: it's crazy. I could have taken a picture of two
Speaker 1: short holding hands and that would have been like the
Speaker 1: biggest scandal in black Twitter in three days. Dear Short,
Speaker 1: beholding hands. Man. Everything is a lot the fucking astronaut
Speaker 1: meme where it's like two shorts respects the ladies, like
Speaker 1: always has you know, always what's something you think is underrated?
Speaker 1: Mm hmm do I do I want to say therapy?
Speaker 1: Or do I want to say bike riding? Oh? You
Speaker 1: know it's underrated? Calling my fuckers you ain't talked to
Speaker 1: in a long time, Like that's one fine every week,
Speaker 1: fine fifteen minutes for someone you haven't talked to in
Speaker 1: a year. That's I've got a less I'm sorry to
Speaker 1: get deep like that, seriously, Like that's that's where I am.
Speaker 1: And it's probably been the coolest thing to just talk
Speaker 1: and just reconnect with people and you know, just trying
Speaker 1: to be some degree of human if you will. I
Speaker 1: know it's a hassle. I know it's a paint in
Speaker 1: the ass. So do it while you do other things,
Speaker 1: Like that's my thing. While I'm playing something brainless, you know,
Speaker 1: doing PlayStation or whatever. Or if I'm at the park
Speaker 1: watching my boy. He's out there with his friends, so
Speaker 1: all I have to do is look at him and
Speaker 1: make sure he's not snatched or hurt. So that's the
Speaker 1: perfect time to call an old classmate from somewhere. And
Speaker 1: so you know, that's that's the type of stuff that
Speaker 1: I like to do. And I'm finally realizing, oh wow,
Speaker 1: this is meaningful in life is precious, especially like being
Speaker 1: locked down and stuff and not really having the same
Speaker 1: sort of social connections. It's funny too, because there are
Speaker 1: times I would get a call from somebody who's doing
Speaker 1: that to me. They're like, oh, I'm gonna I'm gonna
Speaker 1: hit miles up and I'll see a name coming like funk,
Speaker 1: I don't talk this person a year, And I was
Speaker 1: like sweating almost because you're like, funk, what am I
Speaker 1: gonna say? Like what? We don't have this awkward conversation
Speaker 1: and then you pick up and it's like we it's
Speaker 1: like we left off exactly where we were, however long
Speaker 1: ago it was, and we we spoke from forty minutes
Speaker 1: straight because it was so effortless and you and that's
Speaker 1: that was one of those moments she was like, funk, man,
Speaker 1: I'm out here creating stress about this when it's actually
Speaker 1: such a like rejuvenating thing to even begin talking your
Speaker 1: friends again or even people like you're saying that you
Speaker 1: haven't spoken to in a while. Yeah, definitely want money.
Speaker 1: So luckily this person had more money than me, so
Speaker 1: I was like, I'll ask them for money. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: was gonna say, I'm gonna try and just listening to
Speaker 1: you talk, I'm gonna the next time I'm thinking of
Speaker 1: interacting with a bunch of people I don't know, like
Speaker 1: on Twitter, like posting something on Twitter, reading a bunch
Speaker 1: of tweets, I'm gonna call somebody I do know. Are
Speaker 1: you used to know? It's it definitely gives you life,
Speaker 1: as opposed to slowly sapping your will to live Twitter
Speaker 1: that sometimes Alright, let's take a quick break and we're
Speaker 1: gonna be right back to talk some news and we're back. Uh,
Speaker 1: And we've had a day and a half of reactions
Speaker 1: to the choven verdict. And also as the verdict was
Speaker 1: coming in, the police in Columbus, Ohio killed another black child,
Speaker 1: like within moments of the of the verdict being read
Speaker 1: out loud. So just a mix of horrible ship, white
Speaker 1: supremacy all all over the place. But yeah, it was
Speaker 1: a relief too, and also kind of upsetting that it
Speaker 1: was such a relief that they got got it right.
Speaker 1: But at the same time there's just like so much
Speaker 1: ship on display. Nancy Pelosi just not knowing what Oh god,
Speaker 1: she basically said, I mean, for people who don't know,
Speaker 1: she said, thank you George Floyd for sacrificing your life
Speaker 1: life for this to happen. Floyd's girlfriend came out and
Speaker 1: said something similar not too long after that. I can't
Speaker 1: remember where she said it, but like, I'm hoping that
Speaker 1: they just poorly worded their statement that because George Floyd
Speaker 1: didn't wake up that morning, I'm gonna die for the culture. No,
Speaker 1: Josh Floyd woke up to go mind his fucking business,
Speaker 1: and regardless of what he was under suspicion of, if
Speaker 1: he didn't deserve to die period. To the Nancy Pelosi thing,
Speaker 1: I don't think it was poorly worded. I think that
Speaker 1: really underlined just sort of how the Democrats move, which
Speaker 1: is just sort of like you know, essentially, she was saying,
Speaker 1: it's gonna take a lot more bodies for us to
Speaker 1: give a fuck because she's sort of she's connecting the
Speaker 1: fact that George Floyd had to die on video in
Speaker 1: order for them to muster the semblance of courage to
Speaker 1: begin to address this like form of the shitty policing
Speaker 1: that we have, and it's it's it's it's almost as
Speaker 1: if like it absolves them of responsibility as legislators to
Speaker 1: say thank you George Floyd, because like you helped push
Speaker 1: things a little bit more than like we were willing
Speaker 1: to a politicians too. Yay, we got one and all
Speaker 1: it took was video evidence, a whole fucking summer of
Speaker 1: uprisings and movement and the fucking police chief himself testifying him.
Speaker 1: Think you know what, he still might not only get
Speaker 1: seven or eight years. Right. That's the other thing that's
Speaker 1: wild is that first you march for transparency, then you
Speaker 1: march for cameras, and then you march for a rest
Speaker 1: next year after March to try and get sentences. And
Speaker 1: I think that's the thing that's really infuriating is that
Speaker 1: when you look at when you look at what happened,
Speaker 1: you know, with the Chauvin verdict, and then to immediately
Speaker 1: see what happened in Columbus, Ohio, it's a reminder that
Speaker 1: there isn't a lot that you should be celebrating just shared, yeah,
Speaker 1: because the system is still the same regardless, and the
Speaker 1: way we are defining crime and safety is still the same,
Speaker 1: and police is still the same, and it just it
Speaker 1: sucks to just think that like a lot of the sentiment,
Speaker 1: especially from the meteor like Kristen Bell, who's like, finally
Speaker 1: we can breathe this, I have relief something right happened today,
Speaker 1: like this idea that like hooray we won. That's not
Speaker 1: nobody fucking won, and the and I feel like again
Speaker 1: because the media, for people who are just tuning in
Speaker 1: to CNN or MSNBC or anything like that, it should
Speaker 1: that what they should be saying is it is now
Speaker 1: so painfully clear that our system isn't just ill equipped
Speaker 1: to solve this problem, it in fact itself is the problem.
Speaker 1: And this is why it's so exhausting because it has
Speaker 1: been so painfully clear for a really long time now,
Speaker 1: and like you're saying, roy it, the only reason this
Speaker 1: happened is because the whole thing was on tape. The
Speaker 1: whole thing was on tape. Otherwise we would have had
Speaker 1: to put that on the pile of many other deaths
Speaker 1: that have occurred that unfortunately we're not captured in h
Speaker 1: D for the entirety of someone's life ending. And that's
Speaker 1: what's really fucked up. The Minneapolis Police Department report on
Speaker 1: the murderer that went around, like a lot of people
Speaker 1: were reposting this, but it is just wild. Look at it,
Speaker 1: like it just describes it man dies after medical incident
Speaker 1: during police interaction. Like really, so many things had to
Speaker 1: go right like that. If that video didn't exist, that
Speaker 1: none of none of this happens. That's that's that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: one down, three to go, So you know, that's kind
Speaker 1: of how I look at it. I didn't watch any
Speaker 1: of the coverage, Like I just like, I know, you
Speaker 1: work at a daily shot and you're supposed to like
Speaker 1: watch the news and all of that stuff, But I
Speaker 1: was like, I think Trevor's got this one. Watching this
Speaker 1: one trying to figure out any indignation or outrage or
Speaker 1: anything that I can put together. That's the That's the
Speaker 1: one thing that I do love about being a correspondent
Speaker 1: is that if I want to, I can just fucking
Speaker 1: unplug from the horror of today and focus my attentions
Speaker 1: on the solutions. What's happening to change this, What are
Speaker 1: people doing? Because there's comedy in the solutions, because there's optimism.
Speaker 1: So if there's optimism, then there's an opportunity to find
Speaker 1: a joker too. So for me, I'd rather swim in
Speaker 1: those waters and do a ride along with Clipper about
Speaker 1: police bias, or walk the streets of Chicago on the
Speaker 1: South Side to show that black people actually do care
Speaker 1: about black on black violence. Like, to me, that's more
Speaker 1: where my head starts to turn and looking at stuff,
Speaker 1: you know. Like the one thing I have been clocking
Speaker 1: is I think it's thirty four states now that are
Speaker 1: starting to put anti protest laws on the books and
Speaker 1: are attaching it to I mean, you all con fact
Speaker 1: check this, but I think they're basically you won't be
Speaker 1: eligible for student loans and federal grants and unemployment benefits,
Speaker 1: food stamps, public housing, like in Florida, they'll just say
Speaker 1: they'll take all your ship away for trying to advocate
Speaker 1: for yourself. Um, and yeah, no, it's true. And I
Speaker 1: think even to your point, like the segment that you
Speaker 1: did going to Chicago with that group of people who
Speaker 1: were intervening in neighborhoods, that the point was clear that
Speaker 1: it's not about the idea of that people want to
Speaker 1: be engaging in criminality. It's that there isn't support, there
Speaker 1: are no options. And the way we are looking at
Speaker 1: how we keep people safe isn't because we have more
Speaker 1: armed goons on the street. Is because we're able to
Speaker 1: provide people opportunities to live as they deserve to to
Speaker 1: have opportunity and not to resort to these other kinds
Speaker 1: of things. And it's that simple. But we're still sort
Speaker 1: of like locked in this mentality of like what what
Speaker 1: are we gonna stop spending money on these like vests
Speaker 1: and ship Like yeah, exactly, but we're I think just societally,
Speaker 1: we're not able to see like, no, you see, we
Speaker 1: have to turn this whole industry off to be able
Speaker 1: to like take all that revenue or capital and move
Speaker 1: it into something that's actually restorative um and we're just
Speaker 1: unfortunately have the imagination for that still at least at
Speaker 1: a critical mass level. Yeah. Yeah, that Columbus cop who
Speaker 1: you know, murdered a fifteen year old girl shot or
Speaker 1: four times in an altercation that like could with courage
Speaker 1: and like willingness to put themselves like slightly in harm's way,
Speaker 1: like could have been like that. That's that's the thing
Speaker 1: that frustrates me is that the white supremacists like Tucker
Speaker 1: Carlson and they always paint the police as like courageous
Speaker 1: and putting their body and harm's way to do their job,
Speaker 1: and like that's that's not what you see. What when
Speaker 1: you actually see the details, you see them standing tempeed
Speaker 1: away and firing four shots at a child too to
Speaker 1: stop them and sort of you know, just jumping in there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that there's this weird collective grouping of cops
Speaker 1: that other jobs don't get. You know. It's like, no
Speaker 1: matter what, they're all heroes and good. Even though these
Speaker 1: are there's there's clearly a systemic issue, but nope, we
Speaker 1: cannot acknowledge that because the good outweighs the bad. Well,
Speaker 1: how do you measure bad? Is that that's and I
Speaker 1: think that's the question that you know, collectively people refuse
Speaker 1: to ask, which is why the same day that a
Speaker 1: cop is convicted of killing someone on tape, you also
Speaker 1: have back the blue trending on Twitter. Everybody's picked a team,
Speaker 1: and there in common decency is the thing that should
Speaker 1: always being looked at first before you pick a side. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so dug in And while you know it's if it's
Speaker 1: not George Floyd and it's or Brianna Taylor who still
Speaker 1: waiting to see any form of accountability there, and now
Speaker 1: it's going to be mckayah Bryant. And that's why, you
Speaker 1: know it. The idea that we can reform a system
Speaker 1: like this is just so absurd, Like you don't reform
Speaker 1: a malignant tumor, you remove it. You don't figure how
Speaker 1: to do solutions like let's fund the tumor less. No,
Speaker 1: you need to get rid of it. If we can
Speaker 1: acknowledge what it's doing and how insidious it is, then
Speaker 1: we're it's it's incumbent on us to be responsible enough
Speaker 1: to look at it objectively, Like I think we actually
Speaker 1: have to rethink that. But again, that's a huge shift,
Speaker 1: and that's why now the white supremacy has to now
Speaker 1: rally around itself in the forms as you're saying, thirty
Speaker 1: four states have introduced eighty one anti protest bills in
Speaker 1: one in this legislative session. That's more than twice as
Speaker 1: many as any other year and we're only in April.
Speaker 1: So that's the response now is to say, okay, because
Speaker 1: the logic for them is, well, the reason, the reason
Speaker 1: Derek Schouban went to jails, because the uprisings over the
Speaker 1: summer created an angry mob which is now bullying the country,
Speaker 1: inter sacrificing well intentioned police officers to the wolves, to
Speaker 1: the outrage community, and therefore their strategies now say, well,
Speaker 1: then we now we have to take away the ability
Speaker 1: to protest in this way. That's literally what Tucker said. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that that was Tucker's logic last night, and then Candice
Speaker 1: Owens had to come on to yes and that in
Speaker 1: a wonderful improv scene. Um, it was just really some
Speaker 1: other ship. And like you know, you look at what's
Speaker 1: happening like in Oklahoma and Iowa, they're passing bills to
Speaker 1: grant immunity to drivers whose vehicles striking injured protesters in
Speaker 1: public streets. You know, there's in Indiana there's a there's
Speaker 1: a proposal saying if you're convicted of unlawful assembly, you
Speaker 1: can't be employed by the state, you can't hold office.
Speaker 1: There's a Minnesota bill that's on the books that they're
Speaker 1: trying to get past that says, if you're convicted of
Speaker 1: this kind of protesting, you won't get loans or unemployment
Speaker 1: or housing. So it's it's clearly targeted at people of
Speaker 1: color and working people and people who are more than
Speaker 1: more most likely to want to get out and advocate
Speaker 1: for themselves. Um. Then yeah, it's just watching this all
Speaker 1: ebb and flow. It's why all of those down the
Speaker 1: ballot collections matter. M that's why all of that on
Speaker 1: presidential stuff really doesn't do it justice in terms of
Speaker 1: exactly what's going on in the world in terms of
Speaker 1: the things that affect you, you know, on the day
Speaker 1: to day. Right. Yeah, and this is yeah, well we're
Speaker 1: I think again looking at now, just always thinking of
Speaker 1: having the federal things at the top of mind, not
Speaker 1: realizing that that's it's all the state legislative and municipality
Speaker 1: legislators that are the ones that are truly like shaping
Speaker 1: what your day to day actual experiences, like the people
Speaker 1: in the community you're in is by those people, and yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just a shame now to see like how many
Speaker 1: also police chiefs are saying like, yeah, well, you know
Speaker 1: that it shows that the legal system works, like that's
Speaker 1: been the sort of through line, and it's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: Alex villen Auavea, the head of the l A sheriff Department,
Speaker 1: came through with seeing we told you justice works, and yeah,
Speaker 1: there's a gang problem in your department. In your department
Speaker 1: there in there are sheriff's gangs and the reporter who
Speaker 1: has been reporting on it has to wear a bulletproof
Speaker 1: vest now because she's getting death threats because she bothered
Speaker 1: to report on these gangs that exists in the Sheriff's
Speaker 1: series Castle, who was on Daily Zykist a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago. She also went to a press conference with
Speaker 1: her credentials and was arrested for not having her credentials
Speaker 1: by the Sheriff's department, uh and or detained and then
Speaker 1: let go. But you know, the message was clear because
Speaker 1: again I think and that I think it's indicative and
Speaker 1: what what they mean, because a lot of statements do
Speaker 1: from police units, like well, policing as we know it
Speaker 1: is on the line. Yeah, good, what I mean, that's
Speaker 1: but like I know, but let's be real, like is
Speaker 1: it is there the wealth of the like leadership in
Speaker 1: this country to change it like that? TBD. Alright, let's
Speaker 1: take another quick break and we'll be right back to
Speaker 1: talk about Quimby. Segue sege, and we're back and speaking
Speaker 1: of things that bite. I don't know, quick bites, quick,
Speaker 1: quick bites. Quimby is back. I'm just bringing this up
Speaker 1: because it's really about what Quimby cost and then what
Speaker 1: they just sold everything for because Roku, who makes like TV,
Speaker 1: you know Roku and all those little adapters that ship,
Speaker 1: they bought all of the Quimby content and they're like
Speaker 1: sort of repurposing it as Roku originals and they're making
Speaker 1: their own like streaming content or whatever. But the reason
Speaker 1: I was like reading about it because this was this
Speaker 1: is announced batch back in January that wrote who might
Speaker 1: come through with it. Quimby cost one point seven five
Speaker 1: billion dollars. That's how much they put into production. That's
Speaker 1: what they spending, that's what that's how much they raised.
Speaker 1: Quimby completed, launched, off the ground market and everything. One
Speaker 1: point seven five billion dollars, okay, and only a couple
Speaker 1: of months. The Wall Street Journal there's any things saying
Speaker 1: they sold it to Roku quote for significantly less than
Speaker 1: one hundred million dollars. So let's assume that's what sixty
Speaker 1: million trying to flip that hundu, right, and now that's
Speaker 1: a loss for Quippy. I just loved that. I just
Speaker 1: love that ship. One point seven five man, will you
Speaker 1: pay fifty fruit? I don't know, man, please uh. I
Speaker 1: think that Quimby has an opportunity to come back because
Speaker 1: it was an app that was for the commuter and
Speaker 1: for people in the office sneaking and streaming at their desk.
Speaker 1: Can mutant went away in office work went away, so
Speaker 1: you're dead. Then they had that stupid tech thing where
Speaker 1: you couldn't watch the ship on a laptop or TV
Speaker 1: perfect and by the time they lifted that embargo, it
Speaker 1: was too late. My fuckers was on life support, so
Speaker 1: you know it was done. Deal vaccines flowing. What did
Speaker 1: Joe Biden say this week? Two hundred million got the
Speaker 1: shot or two dred million shots? I don't you know what.
Speaker 1: Let me take that back, maybe they might be padding
Speaker 1: the stats over there because two hundred shots, it's technically
Speaker 1: a hundred back because you get two shots, are you're
Speaker 1: gotting both shots? Joe Biden Anyway, my fucker's are going
Speaker 1: back outside again. So if people are going back outside again,
Speaker 1: then I think that there's a chance that quid Be
Speaker 1: could come back. Also, the other thing that's happened at
Speaker 1: the same time, pretty much every streamer has raised their
Speaker 1: price or is planning to raise the price, and Quimby
Speaker 1: has enough star power. I don't only watch The only
Speaker 1: thing I watched on Quimby was Chrissy t Gets Courtroom Show,
Speaker 1: because you know, I kind of like her, She's cool.
Speaker 1: And then there was a movie they had, like a
Speaker 1: movie that was split up into like seven minute parts,
Speaker 1: and I was like, like I made it through thirty
Speaker 1: minutes of that and like that was it. Like I
Speaker 1: didn't really watch anything else over there. So I think
Speaker 1: they come back cheap, and they come back with the names.
Speaker 1: They have a chance. But I think that's the problem
Speaker 1: is they wasted all that money and they've sold all
Speaker 1: the I P so they I don't know what happens.
Speaker 1: Katzenberg is gonna have to I don't know the US
Speaker 1: do another round of fundraising to try and get all
Speaker 1: that money going. But yeah, it was interesting cause I
Speaker 1: think the one thing that they did have was like
Speaker 1: the aspect ratio of going from vertical to horizontal and stuff,
Speaker 1: and that would give you new things. I think that
Speaker 1: was legitimately an interesting thing. But yet to your point,
Speaker 1: like people also want to watch it on a computer
Speaker 1: or a TV or whatever, and when you have stars,
Speaker 1: you're used to seeing on that format. Alright, I rotate
Speaker 1: my phone. I can see more of the room that
Speaker 1: the actors are talking in. That to me was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: that's cool, but it still boils down to what's the
Speaker 1: story on the screen, but it rotates it good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can see you around the corner. Now. Oh it's
Speaker 1: a bigger conference room than I thought. That part was cool.
Speaker 1: But I root for it to do well because the
Speaker 1: board places there are for content stories to be told
Speaker 1: about opportunities I have to get a check exactly. I've
Speaker 1: always been rooting for there's so many talented people who
Speaker 1: are getting paid. Who are you know, drinking up that
Speaker 1: one point seven billion. I just it is also such
Speaker 1: a perfect example of like executive overreach and just putting
Speaker 1: one idea and executive had before any of the many
Speaker 1: many things that you have to do to make something work.
Speaker 1: They're like, well people people like short stuff. Uh, and
Speaker 1: then you know, meanwhile, YouTube is trending longer and longer,
Speaker 1: and Netflix like the thing people are addicted to is
Speaker 1: like streaming shows that like keep you glued to your
Speaker 1: TV until five in the morning. Like it was just
Speaker 1: I remember that like when the web, like when putting
Speaker 1: content online first started, people were like, it's got to
Speaker 1: be thirty seconds or less or else nobody's gonna watch it,
Speaker 1: and like they just stopped thinking about it at that point.
Speaker 1: They're like, all right, we gotta we gotta make it
Speaker 1: bite sized content for anybody to consume it in this
Speaker 1: fast paced world. And people are like, no, we we
Speaker 1: want relief from this fast paced world. About Quimby and
Speaker 1: Netflix for that matter, a lot of the shows are
Speaker 1: written to deliberately cliffhang, so it's never supposed. Even the
Speaker 1: comedies like that are kind of serialized. They deliberately want
Speaker 1: you to hit the next episode. So you just fucking
Speaker 1: rat pushing the cocaine button in that cage. So it's
Speaker 1: like that's that's what they want. But Quimby is gonna
Speaker 1: need a flagship hit you know, you know and that,
Speaker 1: and that's difficult, especially at a time now where a
Speaker 1: lot of the sites are like they're just basically remixing
Speaker 1: existing I p like pretty much every streaming side it
Speaker 1: is like, what do we have that we already own?
Speaker 1: Fucking a new one, build on that for cheap, and
Speaker 1: then start doing new ideas. So you know, I don't know,
Speaker 1: but if they're gonna come back, they're gonna need content.
Speaker 1: So if you're listening from Quimby, get I would I
Speaker 1: would love to see real cool like just take off
Speaker 1: as like suddenly a really successful streaming plat form that
Speaker 1: like is up there with Netflix and uh Quimby, like
Speaker 1: all the big gas executives who put stake their career
Speaker 1: on Quimby or just you know, yeah, somebody has to
Speaker 1: get fined. Yes, you get roy a check call it
Speaker 1: you know branded as roy coop. You know what. There
Speaker 1: you go right there, Let's go from really bad ideas
Speaker 1: to really bad ideas. Uh, this is called these are
Speaker 1: some frat sickles that Natty Light is creating. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean, you guys, tell me what you think so.
Speaker 1: Natural Light has been like when I was in college,
Speaker 1: that was the beer of choice because it was like
Speaker 1: four dollars for a thirty pack, and they were just
Speaker 1: like trying to give it away basically, and it tasted bad,
Speaker 1: but like not so bad that it didn't get you drunk.
Speaker 1: And since then they have apparently had some meetings where
Speaker 1: they're like, what if we did like a fruity beer,
Speaker 1: the like taste of culture culture at your uncle's beer.
Speaker 1: It's your nanny, it's your nanny's beer. Now. I've also
Speaker 1: been on some r fps from Light where they're like
Speaker 1: trying to like brand themselves in an ironic way. It's right,
Speaker 1: it's really weird, and they had some weird like pr
Speaker 1: campaigns like internships and things like that, but they're this
Speaker 1: all their Their first thing was like this natter Day's ship.
Speaker 1: There's like their fruity beer strawberry lemonade or pineapple Lemonade's like, okay, fine,
Speaker 1: whatever is. I guess it's popular enough. I've never had it.
Speaker 1: It definitely sounds like a better idea than those like
Speaker 1: sweet Tea truly Seltzers, which I've had one of and
Speaker 1: immediately thought I was being poisoned um. And now they
Speaker 1: have turned this into an eight percent a V V popsicle,
Speaker 1: which sounds like, oh dangerous development. I mean, I guess yeah,
Speaker 1: anytime you make alcohol easy to consume, and anytime make
Speaker 1: alcohol fun to consume, like stupid bendy straws or those
Speaker 1: long New Orleans hurricane cups that look like a fucking
Speaker 1: long as water it's out traffic control tower, the long necks.
Speaker 1: You're gonna get into some trouble, Like you're gonna you're
Speaker 1: gonna get into some trouble yum, Like I mean like
Speaker 1: there was for Local before, and for Local got everybody
Speaker 1: off the crazy colors. But you know, like I came
Speaker 1: up with like Mad Dog and all of that ship
Speaker 1: and all of that like this, Yeah, it's just like,
Speaker 1: oh it's just fruity or it's sane eyes the little
Speaker 1: fruity cooler cocktail joints or whatever if naughty light like
Speaker 1: PBRs more refined cousin that like finnished community college and
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, well respected beer but also a
Speaker 1: beer that exudes shot shot shot shot shots right, Yes, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I would, I would. I don't know that it finished
Speaker 1: community college necessarily but definitely, yeah, it definitely told their
Speaker 1: parents that they went. They were going and didn't tell
Speaker 1: their parents. They were just sleeping in the car of
Speaker 1: a grocery store near the campus during class and then
Speaker 1: we'll drive back and say class was good. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: And PBR told him so and said you should have
Speaker 1: never lied what these are made like that they might
Speaker 1: have had a like excess packaging at the h at
Speaker 1: the popsicle factory, Like these look exactly like things that
Speaker 1: my three year old and four year old would be
Speaker 1: so hyped to get their hands on. Oh yeah, this
Speaker 1: is right. If the candy cigarettes exactly quick cigarettes still
Speaker 1: gave you cancer? What's the over under on stories where
Speaker 1: a bunch of kids have found their kids matter day,
Speaker 1: their parents Saturday's popsicles and God just bent out of
Speaker 1: shape off of them. Like, I don't I feel like
Speaker 1: it's very quick because I when looking at it, I
Speaker 1: had to look very closely to be like, where does
Speaker 1: this say this is alcohol? Like when you look at
Speaker 1: the red the packaging. But yeah, like you said, really
Speaker 1: making it easier to consume. I think it's like this
Speaker 1: because now we're going back to childhood where the popsicle
Speaker 1: is like yes, I got a popsicle. Now we're adding
Speaker 1: alcohol to that experience. I don't know if there's another
Speaker 1: level that will inspire more childlike excitement than the popsicle.
Speaker 1: They look like the squeezable yogurt tubes I give yeah right, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: this ship looks like durt. I don't want him having
Speaker 1: some natty light sending him out the door to four
Speaker 1: year old pre K's Like, would we found some of
Speaker 1: your child's lunch box? Uh? Just filled to the brim
Speaker 1: when Naturday's Wait what those go girds? Yeah? Also, like
Speaker 1: people aren't gonna actually freezy I mean, like responsible people
Speaker 1: will freezies, but this just gives you a faster way
Speaker 1: to to drink Saturday's I'm assuming, and get drunk off Saturday's. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't really know how cool you look
Speaker 1: pulling one of these out of the cooling meat on
Speaker 1: their drill, yourilling meat. Who wants a popsicle? But Rap
Speaker 1: brothers sucking on popsicles is a funny image to me.
Speaker 1: Just replace all these party scenes, which is frapayses eating
Speaker 1: these popsicles and ships doing the linking arms thing, but
Speaker 1: just sucking on a popsicle for like sit on them
Speaker 1: and put them up. There would be some sort of
Speaker 1: ash shot remix with the pot like whatever the beer funnel,
Speaker 1: what was that when people were dying a couple of
Speaker 1: years ago from but chugging, Yeah, but chugging. This will
Speaker 1: be the ugging, right, It's just make a frozen but
Speaker 1: plug like by like melting together like fifty of them
Speaker 1: things and like can you handle the mega plug of
Speaker 1: natur Day? Like, oh my god, are freezing? That's the point, Bro,
Speaker 1: Maybe this will being bring back Bro's ice and bros though,
Speaker 1: which is you know, just giving someone You should add
Speaker 1: a disclaimer right there because I feel like we just
Speaker 1: gave someone an idea and they're gonna take that to
Speaker 1: the front. Daily z Case is not responsible for any
Speaker 1: mega plug, for the mega plug for any uh anal ingestion,
Speaker 1: uh rec consumption of this. All right, let's talk about
Speaker 1: old people fashion. There's an article in the Wall Street
Speaker 1: Journal that that's my source for all fashion, right is
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal. But this article is kind of fun.
Speaker 1: There's it's like a fashion blogger talking about this trend
Speaker 1: where like a lot of fashion photographers and like instagrams
Speaker 1: are like they're they're these really popular feeds of just
Speaker 1: old person fashion, but like the ship is like really
Speaker 1: cool looking, like the stuff that old people are wearing
Speaker 1: in these pictures, and you know, the theory is basically
Speaker 1: that they are picking the coolest ship from their archive
Speaker 1: of like decades old clothes and just authentically wearing whatever
Speaker 1: you know brings them joy, and they're like ignoring whatever
Speaker 1: you know young people are chasing and just creating these
Speaker 1: wild as mixes of color. Yeah yeah, and like ignoring
Speaker 1: that like makes them. It's like the Marge Simpson scene
Speaker 1: where she's like, does I'm so not cool that maybe
Speaker 1: I am cool? And the kids are like, nah, I
Speaker 1: think that has finally come true for for the elderly.
Speaker 1: Is this like, because I've also seen accounts where clearly
Speaker 1: somebody just dressing up a grandparent in their own clothes
Speaker 1: and like your heype beast grandpa with the supreme drip,
Speaker 1: which is like, okay, like I see the novelty of that,
Speaker 1: but like, are these so you're just saying these are
Speaker 1: the most swagged out elderly people legitimately digging into their
Speaker 1: own fashions. Sometimes when I claim right that these are
Speaker 1: all old people who they just caught in the wild
Speaker 1: wearing dope ship gives us hope. Isn't that the point?
Speaker 1: Is that the point? Yeah, I'm not really a fashion guy,
Speaker 1: Like I just kind of I don't really care about
Speaker 1: clothes until it's time to be on television, which is
Speaker 1: probably not the best time to be scrambling five seconds
Speaker 1: before together. I literally, I literally emailed your producer twenty
Speaker 1: minutes before this show began. And that's it. Hey man,
Speaker 1: is this video? Or don't have to wear a shirt
Speaker 1: for this ship? How do I need to brush my hair?
Speaker 1: That's that's where I am. Now. The pictures are dope.
Speaker 1: I mean, the people look great, and it also really
Speaker 1: really shows like that. I think these old people know that,
Speaker 1: Like they're just not like, oh you caught me in
Speaker 1: my magenta an aquamarine blaze. Oh yeah, they're dressing. You
Speaker 1: knew you was fly when you left the fun right,
Speaker 1: you didn't know you were getting a picture taking, right.
Speaker 1: But old people are the ones who will like dress
Speaker 1: up for a flight. Well you know, Younger people are
Speaker 1: the ones you're more likely to see with socks and
Speaker 1: sweatpants on them. Yeah. I remember my grandfather, he wore
Speaker 1: a suit. There was this burger place on crunshot called
Speaker 1: it a burger and it was designed like a fifties
Speaker 1: car hot place, and it was really cool and everybody
Speaker 1: was like, oh, et a Burger's opening up. Motherfucker wore
Speaker 1: a suit to go get a burger when when I
Speaker 1: was a kid, and I remember me like, what the fun?
Speaker 1: And I think there is just this generational thing where
Speaker 1: I'm like you Roy, where I wear this more the
Speaker 1: same version of that same outfit pretty much infinitely, where
Speaker 1: I don't have it in me. I don't have the
Speaker 1: mind to dress up for things as much as I
Speaker 1: see you know, I guess other people who respect going
Speaker 1: out or something. I don't know what it is. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just I don't know. I know a lot of that.
Speaker 1: It's all habits from stand up comedy and places that
Speaker 1: didn't demand that I dress up. So there's that, But
Speaker 1: I don't know fat good fashion. I respected enough to
Speaker 1: know that I don't have the attention span required to
Speaker 1: do it well. You have to shot at a level
Speaker 1: that I don't have the time for, and then you
Speaker 1: have to put your outfit together and exited with this this.
Speaker 1: I just don't have the time to think. Man, for you,
Speaker 1: what's the highest point of fashion for you, perly that
Speaker 1: you when you say, oh shit, I'm I'm dressing up today. Well,
Speaker 1: we went to the Emmys. I got a custom tuxedough, Okay,
Speaker 1: that's fair. I mean the Daily Show when The Daily
Speaker 1: Show was nominated at that time, I got a really
Speaker 1: nice tuxedo from the homie Rich Fresh. That's probably where
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, Yeah, I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: right for this. Right my first hour special brawler about
Speaker 1: all that ship and Macy's there, Like it wasn't like
Speaker 1: like everybody else I know me because to me get
Speaker 1: the trip and then I'm getting shoes from Italy and
Speaker 1: then I get my socks from Vancouver. Vancouver has I
Speaker 1: did it? Macy's on thirty four, I got all that
Speaker 1: ship between two floors. There you go. So the best
Speaker 1: outfits in this article are these this elderly couple who
Speaker 1: own a laundromat and like put together these amazing outfits
Speaker 1: using ship their clients leave behind. But that is definitely
Speaker 1: one where you can tell that they've got a Either
Speaker 1: they have like the most just cutting edge fashion sensibility,
Speaker 1: or they have like a consultant but like the big
Speaker 1: thing that they're doing is there. You know, most laundromats
Speaker 1: are also tailoring locations, and they're tailoring all the fits
Speaker 1: to like look really good on them. Which that's that's
Speaker 1: the key. I think pretty dope though. All right, real quick,
Speaker 1: speaking of awards shows, I do wanna talk about the
Speaker 1: plan for this year's oscars. I hadn't really heard of this,
Speaker 1: but so, um they're being helmed by Steven Sworderberg, the
Speaker 1: guy who made Contagion. So the pandemic oscars are being
Speaker 1: made by the guy made Contagion. Uh. They're saying it
Speaker 1: won't feel like a TV awards show. It will feel
Speaker 1: like you're watching movie. The presenters will be playing versions
Speaker 1: of themselves working from scripts, which I don't. I mean
Speaker 1: that it's true of all awards shows. I guess I
Speaker 1: wish I would get nominated for a fucking award and
Speaker 1: then the award show tells me I gotta do all
Speaker 1: of this extra righting character who yeah, exactly. Uh, It's
Speaker 1: it's just very strange like so it seems like this
Speaker 1: idea was approved by somebody who knew that Soderberg had
Speaker 1: made like Oceans eleven and Contagion, like all his successful
Speaker 1: commercial movies and wasn't aware of like all the really
Speaker 1: experimental ship that he's made that like audiences were like
Speaker 1: no thing like full frontal. A lot of people haven't
Speaker 1: seen that. That's like Julia Roberts and yeah, everybody missed
Speaker 1: that one. But it's very strange, experimental, like fourteen different characters,
Speaker 1: nothing really makes sense. And he yeah, it's a He's
Speaker 1: just going very like in a in a very strange
Speaker 1: direction with this that this is the first Oscars I'm
Speaker 1: going to watch just because for the Yeah, for the
Speaker 1: like this is going this could be totally fucking off
Speaker 1: the rails. I think it's gonna be either all good
Speaker 1: or all bad. Like it's either gonna work and you're like,
Speaker 1: fuck man that I guess shooting it in twenty four
Speaker 1: frames for a second really did give us some cinematic field.
Speaker 1: Or it's going to be the first Anything is better
Speaker 1: than seeing nine people in the zoom chat and eight
Speaker 1: of them are saying the trophy. Yeah, that's what I
Speaker 1: like that there's there's no so and this one hasn't
Speaker 1: absolutely no zoom anything right, like nobody this one. He
Speaker 1: when he agreed to do it, which is kind of
Speaker 1: a weird move for the guy who made Contagion, like
Speaker 1: researched all pandemics and ship He said, I will do
Speaker 1: this if it's agreed that they're going to be absolutely
Speaker 1: no people allowed on zoom uh. And they agreed to that,
Speaker 1: and so yeah they did. They did create it hubs
Speaker 1: for people in like Europe to go to so that
Speaker 1: they wouldn't kill Anthony Hopkins. Yeah, there's like a UK
Speaker 1: hub and other European UK uk oscar distribution hub. Yeah, exactly. Um,
Speaker 1: I guess it seemed like a lot of trouble to
Speaker 1: go through to not give black movies the awards they deserve,
Speaker 1: all right, it will Yeah. Well the last time they
Speaker 1: tried to go high concept and like gave the Oscars
Speaker 1: over to like a visionary it was a real disaster.
Speaker 1: Um no, ain't no, ain't no black movies going in
Speaker 1: now because that's chovn trial the black people we gave
Speaker 1: the moral likensing will continue. You get no trophies this month.
Speaker 1: Sorry about that. I'm a pessimist. Yah. Yeah, then just
Speaker 1: to see it, I mean again with the drama of
Speaker 1: a presenter, I mean like I don't know about this
Speaker 1: presentation and I'm gonna say what and the Oscar goes
Speaker 1: to or how how do you? How do you many
Speaker 1: deliver that? Right, Steven? Like what is that? How? Like
Speaker 1: what is the character they're playing that is not just
Speaker 1: them delivering an award speech? Like is there going to
Speaker 1: be like a spy theme where or these peop were
Speaker 1: just so you know, thirsty to perform again that there's like, Okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna form at it. So the whole thing is
Speaker 1: a performance, baby, because we haven't been able to get
Speaker 1: out there and just stretch our wings. Trust me, if
Speaker 1: you come to this you will have you literally you
Speaker 1: will have to perform. If you participate in these oscars.
