Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of The
Speaker 1: Weekly Zeitgeist. Uh. These are some of our favorite segments
Speaker 1: from this week, all edited together into one NonStop infotainment
Speaker 1: last stravaganza. Uh yeah, So, without further ado, here is
Speaker 1: the Weekly Zeitgeist. Really, Miles, great to have you back. Great, um,
Speaker 1: thank you for having me. We are thrilled to be
Speaker 1: joined in our third seat by the hilarious, the talented
Speaker 1: Mr Vince Man. Soon is is great to be here.
Speaker 1: You know, Marvin just it's like a really good cousin
Speaker 1: name I feel, yeah, yeah, oh yeah, ma cousin Marvin y.
Speaker 1: And then Marvin gets his head blown off in pull fiction. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's an unfortunate name to Sometimes it's
Speaker 1: like you're never where's the hero, Marvin Marsian. I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe it just sounds like a roused about
Speaker 1: Oh it's Marvin. Here we comes right right right? Oh man?
Speaker 1: Do you think that scene had rewrites? Where the Marvin
Speaker 1: Barry scene, Like first they tried to be like why
Speaker 1: don't we just do stunt, like hey, Chuck, it's me,
Speaker 1: you know what are you looking forward? Well? Here it
Speaker 1: is and you're like wait, well that's that was a
Speaker 1: Chuck Berry song. They said, Chuck, that's enough, or did
Speaker 1: they go it's it's got a marvel. Well, the fact
Speaker 1: that he says Marvin Marvin Barry, Like it's if you
Speaker 1: had just said it's your cousin Marvin Berry, that would
Speaker 1: have been one thing, but or your cousin plus first name, right,
Speaker 1: but then you wouldn't know the Chuck Berry thing, right right.
Speaker 1: I just thinking also the reality of how you would speak,
Speaker 1: you know, it's like the delicate interplay of what's real
Speaker 1: and how you get the message across to the audience,
Speaker 1: because I'm never like, hey, it's your cousin, bro, your
Speaker 1: cousin Miles, Miles Gray, unless it's like an elderly cousin
Speaker 1: who likes especially if it's one of your cousins with
Speaker 1: the same last name as you. Exactly what implies that
Speaker 1: Chuck Berry has a lot of cousins that are always
Speaker 1: trying to sell them on stuff and pictures. Right, that's
Speaker 1: the movie. I want to see the unscrupulous Berry cousins
Speaker 1: the um All right, Vince, what what I was just
Speaker 1: gonna say? I feel like this is I feel like
Speaker 1: this is the process of figuring out that all my
Speaker 1: favorite movies are made for children. And I'm a four
Speaker 1: year old man. But Vince, what's new with you? What's
Speaker 1: going on? Man? Oh? Not much? Just uh, you know,
Speaker 1: I had a birthday yesterday, and yeah, h b D
Speaker 1: it's it's great. It's great to have a birthday. And
Speaker 1: now it's over and uh, I can just enjoy the
Speaker 1: rest of the year. Oh so for you, you're like
Speaker 1: one of these lucky motherfucker's who had a birthday before
Speaker 1: the pan emic and now it's only biting you in
Speaker 1: the ass. And now because last year you probably had
Speaker 1: a prior had a whole lass birthday, right, yeah, last year,
Speaker 1: I can't remember. I'm old enough that I don't remember
Speaker 1: exactly what we did on my birthday last year, but
Speaker 1: I think it was good, right right? Oh? Man? Yeah, pandemic?
Speaker 1: Will I will the pandemic be over for my birthday?
Speaker 1: You know? Because that was the thing in this summer.
Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of people were thinking about
Speaker 1: for the fall. They're like, dude, at the pandemic still
Speaker 1: happening for my birthday. I mean, not that you think
Speaker 1: like that, but I think it enters everyone's mind as
Speaker 1: a goal post in time I mean I were like, Oh,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be over by Memorial Day so we can
Speaker 1: go out and have have a proper three day weekend. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I've talked to you, Miles specifically about how I think
Speaker 1: that the pandemic is specifically a punishment for me for
Speaker 1: because I have a July birthday, and like you couldn't
Speaker 1: have really made it anymore central, so, you know, and
Speaker 1: for all the blaming of like Trump and his policies.
Speaker 1: I let's let's not get carried away. I think this
Speaker 1: whole pandemic was based the some kind of karmic spite
Speaker 1: um against Jack. Yeah, and that's where suffering. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: that's why I'm always shouting when we're not recording. Why
Speaker 1: do bad things happen to good people? It's that's that
Speaker 1: Nancy Karragan tape over Why uh underrated strange reaction to that,
Speaker 1: like that happened to It's not just like all my
Speaker 1: leg go get that person, but why me? Why couldn't
Speaker 1: have me? Oh? Man? That was one of the first
Speaker 1: times I made an adult laugh. Was right around that time.
Speaker 1: I think it was ninety three, right, um, and I
Speaker 1: was in third grade and someone there was like one
Speaker 1: of the kids in class, someone was crying about like
Speaker 1: they got in trouble and they had to like, you know,
Speaker 1: you do like red light, green light ship, that's a
Speaker 1: red light. And this girl was like why why? And
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, Nancy Karragan. My teacher was like, God,
Speaker 1: this girl now and no, none of the kids understood,
Speaker 1: and only my teacher understood. And I was like the
Speaker 1: goat prior this elementary. To your cousin, Marvin Leno, I
Speaker 1: got the joke riding for you. Hey, what do you Nancy?
Speaker 1: Carring it city around my head like dice man? What
Speaker 1: is something you think is underrated? On it? Thank you

Speaker 1: have how many tattooed, long haired men can you fit
Speaker 1: on an island in Fiji? Thousands? Thus, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: Every part of their body is tattooed except for their beautiful,
Speaker 1: beautiful faces. And you know what, I love it. Bachelor
Speaker 1: in Paradise Australia is first they film it in Fiji,
Speaker 1: so much more beautiful than the I don't know why,
Speaker 1: but like maybe it's because I've seen The Bachelor in Paradise,
Speaker 1: America one enough times that like Silita, the resort they
Speaker 1: go to in Mexico isn't like that alluring to me anymore,
Speaker 1: but like the Fiji location, Oh my god, gorgeous. Yeah
Speaker 1: the tattoo. I mean you were sending our our group
Speaker 1: thread your screenshots of the tatted folks, tatted gentleman of
Speaker 1: the Australian Bachelor, and it's like everyone has a chest piece.
Speaker 1: It's like that was the one thing I'm like, Okay,
Speaker 1: so to be in Australia right now, you gotta have
Speaker 1: the wild chess piece Australians, I gang let me know
Speaker 1: if I had to do. What's the aus Aussi bro
Speaker 1: starter pack, because what I'm seeing here is long hair
Speaker 1: with a dodgy mustache, full chest piece and like maybe
Speaker 1: even thigh piece too. All over body. One guy has
Speaker 1: full body everything um eccept his abs or his is
Speaker 1: he the one who like whose abs are a different color?
Speaker 1: It's like a frame for his ads, right, or it's
Speaker 1: like only the things football shoulder pads would cover. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what the tattoo is. Like that, I was like,
Speaker 1: what is happening here? That guy also showed up naked
Speaker 1: to the island, which just some grapes over his crotch.
Speaker 1: Oh that's what that is. Yeah, he had a horrible
Speaker 1: condition walk into the island where he's like introducing himself
Speaker 1: to everyone. He's like, and it's such a cocky photo.
Speaker 1: This dude is tatted head to toe and he's smiling.
Speaker 1: He's like, and I'm hiding my penis with grapes. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and everyone's like, oh, yeah, that's so him. He's totally
Speaker 1: like that. That's him, and that's Karen. Karen's like that
Speaker 1: my you like what the fuck? Also, I think Karen's
Speaker 1: technically British, but he's a transplant. He's in the UK
Speaker 1: or in Australia now I don't know. Yeah, there's a
Speaker 1: girl named Abby who doesn't like when she doesn't get
Speaker 1: what she wants. Oh, she's actually really scary. I I
Speaker 1: could have ever imagined being her friend. I saw her
Speaker 1: in a previous series of UM The Bachelor of Australia
Speaker 1: and she got to number two and then got dumped
Speaker 1: and she was like what what's the vibe of Azzy Bachelor?
Speaker 1: Because you said n Z Kiwi New Zealand Bachelor is wholesome,
Speaker 1: like it's an open space for sensitive people to be
Speaker 1: honest and open in like in a very safe space,
Speaker 1: constructive way to talk. And I remember all you would
Speaker 1: text me like I can't believe how these men are
Speaker 1: talking to each other and like how open this is.
Speaker 1: And it's so different. What's the vibe of Azzy Bachelor
Speaker 1: versus you know what I know of the U S
Speaker 1: Batchelor and what you've described of Kiwi BA. I think
Speaker 1: it's funny like New Zealand Bachelorette, like how progressive and
Speaker 1: cool and like together it was, and like compared to
Speaker 1: like what New Zealand is like, which is like progress
Speaker 1: even cool and together. Show of the Bachelor now right Australia,
Speaker 1: it's like very it's very like um extreme sports driven.
Speaker 1: Like everyone's like, ah, yeah, girl, I gotta jump off
Speaker 1: a plane if you love me, you know yeah, Like
Speaker 1: everyone's just like on today we're gonna go jump off cliffs.
Speaker 1: There's no we don't even know what's on the bottom.
Speaker 1: You like it, You're like, oh no, you don't have
Speaker 1: to risk your life to prove you love this dude
Speaker 1: for yourself. Yeah, my wife demonstrates her. She's like, Jack,
Speaker 1: unless you jump out of this plane even though you're
Speaker 1: absolutely terrified of heights and you're passing out. That's actually
Speaker 1: one season of The Bachelor of Australia, one of the
Speaker 1: girls was so scared of heights and they did like
Speaker 1: a group like all the women and the bachelor who
Speaker 1: jumped out of the plane. She was like that person
Speaker 1: who's like, oh my god, like passing out out of fear,
Speaker 1: coming back like what's going on, Oh my god, and
Speaker 1: like passing out again like that, and every then off
Speaker 1: girl you got And then one girl's like, wow, good
Speaker 1: for her. She's freaking out so much, she's getting all
Speaker 1: the Bachelor's attention. It's like, I think she's actually experiencing
Speaker 1: like real like trauma that might funk her up for
Speaker 1: the rest of her life. But yeah, no, sure, I'm
Speaker 1: sure this is worth it for her to get like
Speaker 1: two minutes of the Bachelor being like, don't you love me?
Speaker 1: Jump anyway? Isn't like a vasal vaguel response over Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think she was truly not doing well. M She
Speaker 1: went home soon after that I don't know. I think
Speaker 1: she was like almost relieved to go home, please don't
Speaker 1: give me a room as well to hear that on
Speaker 1: her behath like subpecting her to regular passing out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but there are like the one woman Abby who does
Speaker 1: it is not used to not getting what she wants.
Speaker 1: Her ability to like turn like her, her ability to
Speaker 1: use her sexuality to get what she needs is the most.
Speaker 1: It's truly like we have to study her. It's unbelievable
Speaker 1: what she can do. Like she'll be like, yeah, it's
Speaker 1: like no one wants to give me a rose. Every
Speaker 1: guy's like, I'll give you my rose. And then she's like,
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, has a guy and she's like
Speaker 1: naked and like I know you want, Like it's just
Speaker 1: who has it? Like who are you? You know, like
Speaker 1: Jessica Rabbit the human Yes, that's a perfec. She's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: Even I'm like, whoa, she's hot. Then I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: she's evil. If what am I doing? Why am I
Speaker 1: falling for her? There's blood coming out of my fudduck. No,
Speaker 1: she really is like unbelievable and her abilities I am like,
Speaker 1: I don't I could never like I truly don't even know.
Speaker 1: Like if I like tried to like walk seductively, I
Speaker 1: would like die. Maybe we need science to bottle that up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: sell it to us, bottle it up and then resell
Speaker 1: it to us unbelievable margin. There is a real deep
Speaker 1: dive in on medium about the ice cream company ample Hills.
Speaker 1: Are you guys familiar with the fancy ice cream company
Speaker 1: from Brooklyn? Ample Hills? Ample Hills sounds like ample Hills.
Speaker 1: It does sound like a like a porn from the
Speaker 1: forties when right, like written by a farmer. Uh yeah,
Speaker 1: oh yeah Ample Hill and her ample Hills. Uh yeah,
Speaker 1: So what's the deal with that? I do? I feel
Speaker 1: like this is just like such a like a of
Speaker 1: the moment like trend that we will look back on
Speaker 1: and be like, ah, yes, that was a very story
Speaker 1: indie ice cream shop from Brooklyn. So yeah, this is
Speaker 1: already very dated, right They so they just basically crashed
Speaker 1: and burned. They over extended, became friends with Bob iger
Speaker 1: and otherwise non a z Oprah. Uh that well, that
Speaker 1: bob igern Oprah became fans and like just when they
Speaker 1: expanded the l a than Disney World started becoming obsessed
Speaker 1: with things like square pints, which they called squints. And
Speaker 1: once again, guys, you don't you don't need to do that.
Speaker 1: We have writers. We have writers, so many writers who
Speaker 1: can also, how do you write that without it looking
Speaker 1: like squints? Yeah, it does look like squints and maybe
Speaker 1: marked guys, it's They created Disney license flavors with watercolor art,
Speaker 1: and bankruptcy followed quickly. Um they also just to make
Speaker 1: it fully uh just a fail a failed venture of
Speaker 1: the moment. They also have a podcast. Now, Um do
Speaker 1: they still have the podcast even though their bankrupt? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Do they have a patriot? Yeah? Cream talking about ice cream? Like, y'all, look,
Speaker 1: I know in everybody was like, I don't know, we're
Speaker 1: stuck at home. I shout into the void. I'm making
Speaker 1: a podcast, but a podcast about ice cream. But Wendy's
Speaker 1: has a podcast. I can't. I'm looking at Ample Hills
Speaker 1: right now, and I will say this, I think that
Speaker 1: killed Ample Hills. I think that if they had had
Speaker 1: time and place where we were all free, then this
Speaker 1: would have worked. They would have been at Coachella giving
Speaker 1: the girls, you know, watercolor creams and moments. They would
Speaker 1: have had a tidy flavor. By now, everyone would have
Speaker 1: a mini repretend photo by now with the ice cream
Speaker 1: comb melting in their hand and it would be getting cute.
Speaker 1: They would also be wearing the afro regardless of rice,
Speaker 1: and they could have had that. And I'm sorry killed
Speaker 1: them ample Hills because that's what did it. But you
Speaker 1: know what sometimes businesses deserve today. Yeah, I will say this,
Speaker 1: they did expand quickly with Oprah's influence and stuff, but
Speaker 1: for a long time, like ever so to the Oprah Show,
Speaker 1: and she used to do Oprah's favorite things. Um, after
Speaker 1: the first couple of years, they would demand that if
Speaker 1: you wanted to be in Oprah's list, or if you
Speaker 1: wanted to be in Oprah's company, that you had to
Speaker 1: expand because what would happen was is she would talk
Speaker 1: about a product and then everyone would want to go
Speaker 1: buy it and it would be gone. So I wouldn't
Speaker 1: be surprised if they were like, oh, we're working with Oprah, now,
Speaker 1: let's open all the ice cream stores, get get the Scoopers.
Speaker 1: Yeah right. They didn't really have any other choice because
Speaker 1: when Oprah mentioned something, it just immediately like sells out
Speaker 1: for a decade. Um. But that's that's really amazing that
Speaker 1: she demanded that instead of I'll recommend your product to
Speaker 1: my fans and then they'll buy buy you out to
Speaker 1: the point where you know you're sold out, that she
Speaker 1: would instead demand that they Expland that's very interesting. That's yeah,
Speaker 1: because she didn't want to put a bunch of companies
Speaker 1: out of business by or you know, like break them.
Speaker 1: Uh well, I mean, you know, if go if you
Speaker 1: sell out, you can just yeah, I guess you know,
Speaker 1: that's that's a business that's performing very well. Like selling
Speaker 1: out is kind of a goal, you know. But it
Speaker 1: was like the fan base because her reach would be
Speaker 1: so large because you know, she made Havanas pop, She
Speaker 1: made Greensburg turkeys pop. Like she was like, I better
Speaker 1: get out. She was her. She was like this is
Speaker 1: my favorite flip flap and everybody got toes and those habanas.
Speaker 1: I never knew what that was before her. Like she
Speaker 1: she turned a lot of businesses out. And this whole
Speaker 1: time I've been I've been calling them havinus. You might
Speaker 1: be right, I've been calling them Havina the whole time.
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm not looking at your foot to
Speaker 1: read what's on there. You got. You better look at
Speaker 1: the labels on my foot. I like to say poor
Speaker 1: ample Hills another melted ice cream for example. Those but
Speaker 1: check out their podcast. Um alright, Jack, I will that's
Speaker 1: a lie. Uh. I don't think anyone will. Um so true, Jack,
Speaker 1: so true? What is something from your search history that's
Speaker 1: revealing about who you are? Um? I I searched et
Speaker 1: hoodie because I was, you know, scrolling through. It's an
Speaker 1: old friends on Instagram and we're passing around in the
Speaker 1: group chat. You know, when you got like a friend
Speaker 1: that you don't talk to but mostly you just make
Speaker 1: fun of them in group chats with other people. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there their group chat fodder, their Instagram and group chat fodder. Yep.
Speaker 1: I have somebody who has a real brawlic doll collection
Speaker 1: and a lonely doctor who we always speculate what their
Speaker 1: life's about. Yeah, so I got one of those. And
Speaker 1: there was like one of those real uh you know,
Speaker 1: vague book we call him vague books. I forget one,
Speaker 1: which one of my comedian friends came up with that
Speaker 1: whenever people are sad and they just like right, vague
Speaker 1: platitudes online, vague vague booking, and they're in like a
Speaker 1: they're in a blanket looking very uh for Louren and
Speaker 1: it reminded me of Et, and I was trying to
Speaker 1: find the Et picture to compare to, and then I
Speaker 1: googled Et hoodie only to realize that Et wasn't wearing
Speaker 1: a hoodie. It was actually just like his blanket blanket warm. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like Mandela affected myself, I think, yeah, I friend heard
Speaker 1: this podcast like stop Et was wearing a fucking hoodie.
Speaker 1: So did you picture in your mind Et wearing the
Speaker 1: red hoodie that Elliott wears exactly? Well, yeah, yeah I did. Yeah,
Speaker 1: trying to picture that right now. Huh. Et hoodie is
Speaker 1: like a whole vibe though, like if Et rock to hoodie,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, his hands and ship. Yeah,
Speaker 1: whereas the you can pull off the red hood you
Speaker 1: cannot pull off the blanket wrapped around your head and
Speaker 1: then like tied at your chest without people being like yeo,
Speaker 1: man's everything. It's everything, right, Because remember there's even that
Speaker 1: tweet that we liked. I was like, yo, it took
Speaker 1: my kid brother to Target and it was just like
Speaker 1: a little kid in a big gas down coat and
Speaker 1: it's just look like a coat was walking around even
Speaker 1: that shape was less suspicious to me when I was
Speaker 1: a kid in the coat, but because that could have
Speaker 1: been et and I wouldn't have bat it, and I
Speaker 1: because I'm used to that. But it's some kid in
Speaker 1: a blanket like that, I'm like, no, it's some kind
Speaker 1: of terrestrial being. All right, we are going to take
Speaker 1: a quick break and we'll be right back. And we're
Speaker 1: back speaking of the other side of a story. This
Speaker 1: story that kind of hit yesterday morning, all right. T
Speaker 1: MZ is reporting that two of Lady Dougas three dogs
Speaker 1: were kidnapped and her dog walker during the course of
Speaker 1: this armed robbery, was shot four times. One of her
Speaker 1: one of her dogs, was, as Anna Josie said, was
Speaker 1: just like not today's satan and just sprinted away, got
Speaker 1: away shout to that. Yeah, no they Uh. There's a
Speaker 1: photograph of her bodyguard walking back found found the dog
Speaker 1: walking it back to the house. Um. By the way,
Speaker 1: so Lady Gaga is in Rome working on a movie
Speaker 1: right now. So the fact that her bodyguard was photographed
Speaker 1: carrying the dog backs suggests that that bodyguards in l
Speaker 1: a looking after the dogs essentially, and he managed to
Speaker 1: You had one job, my man. Uh, but so the
Speaker 1: one of the aspects of the story is Lady Gaga
Speaker 1: is offering five hundred thousand dollars no questions asked to
Speaker 1: whoever has her dogs, which is bananas, because whoever has
Speaker 1: her dogs shot her dog walker four times. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: want to say something here about this. It's not funny.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say that first, it's sad when people get shot,
Speaker 1: but I am gonna probably make a couple of jokes
Speaker 1: about it, so just bear with me, please. Anyway, Uh,
Speaker 1: he released an email address for you to send in
Speaker 1: tips on the whereabouts of the dogs, and I am
Speaker 1: just imagining all the dick picks somebody's going to have
Speaker 1: to comb through before they get to even one real
Speaker 1: clue about the whereabouts. I mean, yeah, it's so weird that,
Speaker 1: first of all, like Lady Gaga with like Democrats style
Speaker 1: negotiating hey money and no questions asked? If you just
Speaker 1: even though you almost killed us, so appropriate, let's be
Speaker 1: saying the national anthem for the Biden administration. Hold on,
Speaker 1: what about five hundred thousand dollars to find out who
Speaker 1: shot her fucking dog walker? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: That's in the hospital. Their life has changed but she's
Speaker 1: just gonna be like, Okay, how much do it they
Speaker 1: how much do you need for me to get those
Speaker 1: fridgepole dogs? I mean, because I can't live without Muffy
Speaker 1: and scruff Scruff. I'm not I'm not fully blaming her
Speaker 1: because she's just trying to get her dogs back, right.
Speaker 1: The dogs are something, uh, and it's not going to
Speaker 1: change anything necessarily, Like she could still be like find
Speaker 1: this motherfuckering prosecute them. But the fact that TMZ is
Speaker 1: just like, guys, no questions asked, it's all good, Like
Speaker 1: nobody's even or she's not even thinking about like the
Speaker 1: idea that she's devaluing the the life of her dog walker.
Speaker 1: And also the way that this just feels like the
Speaker 1: American version of you know, like aligar keys and dictatorships
Speaker 1: and other countries where people are kidnapped all the time,
Speaker 1: like that you have to like constantly be thinking about
Speaker 1: the fact that you know, people are going to kidnap
Speaker 1: you because there's massive wealth inequality, inequality, Like this is
Speaker 1: the American version of that. And the thing that everybody's
Speaker 1: reporting without even being like, wait, what is that, She's
Speaker 1: just like, yeah, okay, so that's done with now just
Speaker 1: giving my dogs back, please, I don't know. It just
Speaker 1: feels very American to me right now. Yeah, it's like
Speaker 1: like how people treat essential workers or companies that treat
Speaker 1: essential workers. You know what I mean is this person
Speaker 1: could have died. They were shot four times, and all
Speaker 1: she wants is her dogs back. It seems like I
Speaker 1: mean to be fair to Lady Gaga, to Stephanie. We
Speaker 1: don't know what she's doing for the dog walker, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: we know is all we know is the information that's
Speaker 1: out there. Sure we'll find out though. I hope, I
Speaker 1: hope that she's taking care of this person. Yes, it's
Speaker 1: what It's just like, it's come on, the police need
Speaker 1: to arrest this person for shooting another on the street.
Speaker 1: You have, like to Jack's point, right, like the idea
Speaker 1: that bodyguards were even adjacent and this person still got shot.
Speaker 1: It's an inside job, guys, that's what it is. You
Speaker 1: going there, we go shotshack Reduction had to throw the
Speaker 1: lab up, just need someone to throw it down, and
Speaker 1: Reddit is losing their mind. But like, but then also
Speaker 1: it's like, how are you managing? Like I get it
Speaker 1: when you're so fucking popping wealthy that you can't even
Speaker 1: do normal things, but like you wouldn't you want to
Speaker 1: be like, my dogs are so important, you don't even
Speaker 1: funk around. Man, I bought this forest. You can walk
Speaker 1: them around it, you know what I mean? Like, because
Speaker 1: I'm guessing because she doesn't she doesn't live in West Hollywood.
Speaker 1: I'm guessing that's where the dog walker lives. So she
Speaker 1: trust the dog walker enough to take the dogs. But
Speaker 1: then there's a security presence near the dog. It just
Speaker 1: seems so convoluted. I'm trying to understand, Like, if this
Speaker 1: is the most efficient way to ensure the safety of
Speaker 1: your animals given the budgets Stephanie has, probably not. I
Speaker 1: mean this goes back to the top shot question, what
Speaker 1: how do we value things? We value a blockchain on
Speaker 1: a video or a gift. We also value French bulldogs.
Speaker 1: There are some of the most extensive dogs in the country,
Speaker 1: probably in the world. Very hard to get, very hard
Speaker 1: to take care of all that stuff. So someone thought,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go out and shoot a motherfucker four times
Speaker 1: to take the dogs. I don't want the jewelry, I
Speaker 1: don't want the car, I don't want the clothes, I
Speaker 1: don't want the Grammys or the oscar I want. That's
Speaker 1: so crazy to me that the dogs are valuable, dogs
Speaker 1: are worth shooting a person? Does someone get app over dogs?
Speaker 1: And they were like, all right, this this seems like
Speaker 1: a good plan, even though the criminals and that are like, like,
Speaker 1: but in the mind of a person who's doing dirt,
Speaker 1: you don't want to uh, you know, discharge a firearm
Speaker 1: and the commission of a crime just you don't. You
Speaker 1: don't want to put force multipliers on your sentencing if
Speaker 1: something were to happen. So like, it doesn't seem like
Speaker 1: do you need to shoot somebody to strong arms snatch
Speaker 1: some dogs away? Its weird, I know, like that's I
Speaker 1: don't know what's going Like, it seems there's so many
Speaker 1: levels that just seem like aggressive or that the person
Speaker 1: knows that these are Lady Gaga's dogs, so they gotta
Speaker 1: come heavy and then they're gonna then demand another wilder ransom. Oh,
Speaker 1: they definitely knew that it was Lady Gaga's dogs. This
Speaker 1: was this was planning for sure. I just so confusing, man,
Speaker 1: and I hate to be the conspiracy theory person in
Speaker 1: a time conspiracy theories are so horribly dangerous, but it's
Speaker 1: it's ship went left on that inside job, you know,
Speaker 1: because you know what the bodyguard said, He said, you're
Speaker 1: supposed to stick to the script. What the funk you're doing? Yeah,
Speaker 1: shooting somebody four times? So maybe shooting somebody four times
Speaker 1: is the way that it makes it look like it
Speaker 1: was more of a real crime. The dog walker is okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: expected to fully recover. So it might have been I
Speaker 1: don't know. We the infuriate. Yeah, I'm like, yeah exactly
Speaker 1: because part of me is like, um, it's it's a
Speaker 1: The crime is sloppy, the security is sloppy. The shodd
Speaker 1: four times where exactly, but daw right through the back
Speaker 1: of the hamstring with it right to the hamstring, bing,
Speaker 1: bing bing. Let's uh talk about Joe Biden real quick.
Speaker 1: I just like to check him with where he's coming
Speaker 1: down on policies that effect Americans. It was Janet Yellen
Speaker 1: recently reported that in terms of how they're going to
Speaker 1: pay for various programs to help America get back after
Speaker 1: the pandemic, said they're pursuing corporate tax and capital gains taxes. Uh.
Speaker 1: She's open to discussing a wealth tax, but Biden is not. Uh.
Speaker 1: And then also just opened his first detention facility for
Speaker 1: immigrant children. So all the people who were like, finally
Speaker 1: Biden one and I can now celebrate because there will
Speaker 1: no longer be children in cages, but they're unaccompanied miners
Speaker 1: in overflow facilities, is what people and my Twitter replies
Speaker 1: are saying, because I have an outrageous amount of like
Speaker 1: you know, like capital l liberal followers because of my
Speaker 1: reporting last summer um, and every time I bring up
Speaker 1: stuff about Biden, I get like tens or like like
Speaker 1: dozens of dozens of people be like, oh, but it's
Speaker 1: the first three months, or oh but he's still dealing
Speaker 1: with the best Trump left over, or oh well it's
Speaker 1: different because X, Y and Z. And it's like they're
Speaker 1: incapable of criticizing Biden because I don't know, it's it's
Speaker 1: a it's a weird thing, yeah, because they're centering themselves
Speaker 1: when they when they defend Joe Biden, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. They're trying to because it doesn't really bother them,
Speaker 1: and the fact that it's bothering other people now like
Speaker 1: well it should it, well no, but it's only And
Speaker 1: then now you're just hearing their rationalizations to why they
Speaker 1: aren't outraged, because really they should just be able to say,
Speaker 1: just dial it back objectively. Do we still want to
Speaker 1: put kids in cages? Do we not? Do we not
Speaker 1: want to reunite people like whether or not who, no
Speaker 1: matter who's the president. If that's the case, then why
Speaker 1: can't we demand that that happens, that we're reuniting families.
Speaker 1: And then but here's the thing, Joe Biden, He's really
Speaker 1: they did a good move where you know, there was
Speaker 1: that deportation reason that was blocked by a conservative judge,
Speaker 1: and they said, well the judge blocked, the judge blocked,
Speaker 1: what do you want to do? Yeah, well, then motherfucker
Speaker 1: the president start feeling some ship out, start cracking some skulls.
Speaker 1: That's the thing. It's like, yeah, I was, I was
Speaker 1: angry tweeting about that for a while, and I'm like like,
Speaker 1: it's like I've got you know, hundreds of people at
Speaker 1: this point and being like, oh, well, one conservative said no,
Speaker 1: I guess we can't do anything else. We tried, like no,
Speaker 1: you're the president's the most powerful man in the country.
Speaker 1: Are arguably um like like if ice isn't if I
Speaker 1: say it listening and there's a there's a judge blocking this,
Speaker 1: then start just dismantling ice, like like you can you
Speaker 1: can do things here the most power that have the
Speaker 1: most political power than anyone else in the country, possibly
Speaker 1: the world. You're gonna let one conservative judge like stop.
Speaker 1: You know, it's just because you don't want to put
Speaker 1: in the work. The judge and fucking Joe Mansion are
Speaker 1: fucking fucking everything up because suddenly the man from West Virginia,
Speaker 1: he's the stunt queen of the Senate and he's like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: now my vote is really the deciding things, so let
Speaker 1: me fucking funk around with the OMB nominations or maybe
Speaker 1: Deb Holland for the Interior, who absolutely should be running
Speaker 1: the interior. But he's trying to make noise like oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know about that, Like get the fuck out
Speaker 1: of here, because now he's found a way to be
Speaker 1: the you know a little bit of a power broker
Speaker 1: and ship and it's it's all getting funked up. And
Speaker 1: I think it's also places into how like the capital
Speaker 1: capital D Democratic you know, voters um and and part
Speaker 1: of members are like so terrified of any criticism of
Speaker 1: the of the Democratic Party, like always it's like, you know, oh,
Speaker 1: we can't criticize people right now, it's gonna affect the
Speaker 1: mid terms. And oh, after the mid terms, we can't
Speaker 1: criticize anyone. It's gonna affect the general It's like they
Speaker 1: can they can never take any criticism of the candidates
Speaker 1: because they feel like it's just an attack wholly on
Speaker 1: their idea of like progressiveness, um, even when the criticism
Speaker 1: is coming from further left, um, just because they they
Speaker 1: feel like any of it is they It's almost like
Speaker 1: they feel like the party is so fragile that under
Speaker 1: any criticism they'll fall apart. In the Conservatives in actually
Speaker 1: it's their own egos that are so fragile and fall
Speaker 1: apart at any criticism because the people on the outside
Speaker 1: aren't looking at it like that, that's belt Way thinking,
Speaker 1: that's hell thinking of like, you can't don't say this
Speaker 1: about them because most people aren't like wonky enough to
Speaker 1: understand the optics arguments or the polling to see like
Speaker 1: why one thing doesn't work when most people think like
Speaker 1: I'm seeing that a majority of people want medicare for all.
Speaker 1: I'm seeing a majority of people want of an aggressive
Speaker 1: green new deal or path to renewable energy, and they
Speaker 1: that's like they just can't they can't really summon the
Speaker 1: energy to be like, wow, a majority of Americans are
Speaker 1: on this side. Let's now take that and march forth
Speaker 1: and do good rather than you know, this whole other
Speaker 1: thing of being afraid of whatever criticisms are gonna come out,
Speaker 1: then immediately water down legislation that helps no one or
Speaker 1: just the people that you want to help specifically. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm just I'm so frustrated. I've lost
Speaker 1: I've lost at this point, probably thousands of Twitter followers
Speaker 1: because I'm just like rage tweeting about how Biden's not
Speaker 1: doing anything, and I have all these like, you know,
Speaker 1: these people with like Biden Kamala User names, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't I don't care. Like you're you're now you're
Speaker 1: you know you have like oh, I you know, you
Speaker 1: have like kind of like anti Trump stuff in your bio,
Speaker 1: and now you're the one quote unquote defending these unoccupied
Speaker 1: miners in over flow facilities. Like no, like you're too
Speaker 1: like you're too offended to call it kids in cages.
Speaker 1: Now that we have a blue person in office, come on, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, stress that's just sucking the same ship. It's like, nope,
Speaker 1: fucking tunnel vision. Nothing is is wrong. But yeah, it's like,
Speaker 1: rather than getting mad at the people who are have
Speaker 1: the awareness and uh analytical skills to be like, this
Speaker 1: is not what he said he would do. This is
Speaker 1: not good objectively for children, send your outrage to the
Speaker 1: people that are keeping the kids in the cages. Why
Speaker 1: are you getting mad at the people who are making
Speaker 1: you realize that the people that the guy who's in office,
Speaker 1: who most people like he's not gonna do with any
Speaker 1: of this ship that it's turning out to be true.
Speaker 1: Start then start advocating for the people that if you
Speaker 1: really give a fuck, Yeah, but then they have to
Speaker 1: pause brunch and brunches so tasty. But like, I tweeted
Speaker 1: about the fucking m attention scility today and you know,
Speaker 1: one of one of the replies from a person with
Speaker 1: the blue flag in their in their Twitter name is
Speaker 1: the kids in cages thing was because they're using old
Speaker 1: walmarts to build cages. And how is large groups of
Speaker 1: children here? We have modular buildings used as schools. Are
Speaker 1: their cages? Are they just places where people get processed?
Speaker 1: I need more information terrible? How about this cage or
Speaker 1: not detained children? As you're looking at like fucking like
Speaker 1: shipping container is with like bars on the windows, Like
Speaker 1: that's the picture like cage. I hear when you say
Speaker 1: shipping containers. It's a modular place that's like a school.
Speaker 1: These are cages or these are tiny prisons from this
Speaker 1: company that does tiny houses from the TLC show, and
Speaker 1: they're great little how It's like, what the fuck? Why?
Speaker 1: Why are why are you going to bend your mind
Speaker 1: into saying because let's distill it down to the real argument,
Speaker 1: which is children should not be detained and separated from
Speaker 1: their parents, and people shouldn't be detained and separated for
Speaker 1: moving to a different country. I get the feeling, like
Speaker 1: the feeling of okay, but Republicans are so much worse,
Speaker 1: and like, strategically, if we're criticizing the Democrats, then uh,
Speaker 1: you know we're the Republicans are going to win the
Speaker 1: next thing. But like it really it's really starting to
Speaker 1: look like the thing they object to about the Republicans
Speaker 1: is less policy and more like the wording yeah it's optics,
Speaker 1: and like that they don't want to have that put
Speaker 1: in their face, that that's what goes on. They want
Speaker 1: a smooth, like a cool looking president who or like
Speaker 1: a nice president who uh does the things that make
Speaker 1: their life possible behind the scenes so they don't have
Speaker 1: to think about it. Like that's that's the thing that
Speaker 1: I feel like they're not uh admitting to themselves. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, like I have seen as as many tweets
Speaker 1: as there are about like you know, immigrants and ice
Speaker 1: stuff that that I get from my like more you know,
Speaker 1: liberal center followers. It's the same thing for like people
Speaker 1: being like expressing like relief that that they don't feel
Speaker 1: obligated to check what he's tweeted today. It's like he's
Speaker 1: it's because it's like it's it's like an optics thing, right,
Speaker 1: It's like they don't want someone who looks rude, but
Speaker 1: they don't really care about what's actually happening. It's like
Speaker 1: it's what it's what like the facade is like or
Speaker 1: what you know, the optics are to themselves and their friends.
Speaker 1: It's like it's you know, it's it's the it's it's
Speaker 1: like the respectability politics. It's almost more important than actual policy.
Speaker 1: Or it's like someone who like talks about veganism, but
Speaker 1: like they couldn't for a second look at a meat
Speaker 1: processing facility. Yeah you know what I mean, it's like,
Speaker 1: fuck veganism, are you serious? Meat all fucking day? Don't
Speaker 1: show me what? Like, get the funk out, like you know,
Speaker 1: just fucking deal, look at the ship in its eye
Speaker 1: and then look at reality and then do what you
Speaker 1: gotta do, or just you know, start maybe have a
Speaker 1: little bit of self ornis like am I tricking myself
Speaker 1: a bit to protect myself from maybe thinking a little
Speaker 1: more critically? I mean, and like new things, you know
Speaker 1: a lot of these like new things, Like new things
Speaker 1: are always uncomfortable, right, and it's much easier to kind
Speaker 1: of ignore things and just feel comfortable, right, Like I
Speaker 1: I wish I could sometimes, I wish I could just
Speaker 1: like disengage from everything and just you know, live like
Speaker 1: a regular person, because you know, I assume I assume
Speaker 1: it's similar to you. How we're like so in tuned
Speaker 1: with all current events and all the torrible news, and
Speaker 1: it can be overwhelming and depressing, and it'd be nice
Speaker 1: if you could just you know, funk off into the
Speaker 1: forest and and and fun up to brunch and just
Speaker 1: not have to look at like not have to look
Speaker 1: at this stuff just like be completely isolated. Right, It's
Speaker 1: like part of that is attractive. Um. But you know
Speaker 1: that's only possible if you come from from a place
Speaker 1: of privilege, because if you if you aren't privileged, you
Speaker 1: can't do that. So you know, it should be people's
Speaker 1: obligation to learn about these new things and learn about
Speaker 1: these other solutions, even if they seem uncomfortable, because you
Speaker 1: have the ability to ignore them, but a lot of
Speaker 1: other people don't because it's their everyday life. Speaking of
Speaker 1: our love of sports and also something that we were
Speaker 1: talking about before we started recording trading cards. Uh, so,
Speaker 1: are you guys up on the top shot movement? Oh? Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: I am in I'm you haven't heard of top shot?
Speaker 1: Get ready? No, I am in a I'm in a
Speaker 1: group chat all about basketball and top shot is the
Speaker 1: number one conversation. Yeah. Um yeah. So top shot is
Speaker 1: it's basically an NBA trading card style market, um where
Speaker 1: they create a limited number of NBA gifts that have
Speaker 1: like unique blockchain signatures, and because they have that unique
Speaker 1: signature and not because of anything to do with like
Speaker 1: the clip, really they sell for a Lebron James Dunk
Speaker 1: gifts sold for two hundred and eight thousand dollars. The
Speaker 1: top shot market drove forty five million dollars in sales
Speaker 1: in one day. I don't understand what you're saying. So
Speaker 1: you know how you know how blockchain is like a
Speaker 1: digital thing, but there's only one of them that had
Speaker 1: I get that. But you're saying people are paying six
Speaker 1: figures for a gift. Yes, that's connected that you use.
Speaker 1: What to do? What with? How do you flex with it?
Speaker 1: Like I've seen the clip. I've watched the clip. Uh,
Speaker 1: but then you might as well have the gift that
Speaker 1: don't have the cream master Cycle video art piece where
Speaker 1: you have to own the tapes to see the art piece.
Speaker 1: This is the first time Matthew Bartey's come up on
Speaker 1: the show. Miles talks about the creamaster Cycle all that time.
Speaker 1: But yeah, okay, I mean, you know, I grew up
Speaker 1: in an art house, so up talking about art um
Speaker 1: But yeah, like what I don't God see, this is
Speaker 1: why I don't know. Yeah, because I literally you saw
Speaker 1: before we record, I put on my old dusty binder
Speaker 1: of nineties basketball cars. That's what it's all about, right,
Speaker 1: So but the value is to just say I own
Speaker 1: this unique gift, m full stop. Yes, but it's not
Speaker 1: a unique gift because I looked at the gift. It's
Speaker 1: a gift that's connected to the block chain. There's no
Speaker 1: value to it. But neither is their value to any
Speaker 1: cryptocurrency other than like its value as a signifier of
Speaker 1: wealth like that, or a signifier of value. It's it's
Speaker 1: not it's an attempt to create The whole thing is
Speaker 1: an attempt to create sort of a physical materialist economy
Speaker 1: out of the digital world. Um, it seems regressive to me, Like, well,
Speaker 1: it seems regressive. It seems like kind of trying to
Speaker 1: go back to the like the people who are really
Speaker 1: passionate about trying to go back to the gold standard
Speaker 1: for a long time, and it's just fighting the direction
Speaker 1: things were headed, Like I don't, don't we're decentral What
Speaker 1: are we decentralizing? You know what I mean? Because that's
Speaker 1: the argument for these other currencies, is like we're trying
Speaker 1: to decentralize our banking or whatever. But in the end
Speaker 1: they're really not being decentralized because they're traded on like
Speaker 1: three fucking exchanges. But like what I'm this is how
Speaker 1: old I am, is that I'm such an old person
Speaker 1: that is not tangible. So I'm like, there is no
Speaker 1: value in a sporting card, and I'm and I think
Speaker 1: I'm looking at it in this sporting like sort of
Speaker 1: trading context of like what are you then you're just
Speaker 1: trading files. But then I guess that also speaks to
Speaker 1: the fact that I'm I'm I'm at an age where
Speaker 1: I don't know that I can understand for me personally
Speaker 1: that I could see the value in that philosophical value.
Speaker 1: It's not inherent. Value is applied to things based on
Speaker 1: whether or not lots of people share the same value
Speaker 1: on giving objects. Trading cards is a great example. I
Speaker 1: have a box of unopened Skybox trading cards Series one packs.
Speaker 1: There's no there's value to them. But they're just pieces
Speaker 1: of paper with an image of an athlete that you
Speaker 1: could you can you can print that, you could print
Speaker 1: that exact picture out. The cards have always been bullshit.
Speaker 1: You see, at least I can hug my sneakers that
Speaker 1: I love and you can wear them. They have a practical,
Speaker 1: practical application. But and then but there are people who
Speaker 1: just collect or whatever. And I still get that too,
Speaker 1: like you know, like you're gonna get in. And people
Speaker 1: don't understand sneaker collecting and things like that, but I understand.
Speaker 1: So now this is what they the high stakes world
Speaker 1: of six figure gifts, and now I'm just terribly behind.
Speaker 1: Now it's a hype economy, and hype drives everything. And
Speaker 1: it's not just entertainment to this stuff. It's not just
Speaker 1: gifts though. No, it's not just well, it is mostly gifts.
Speaker 1: The in the art world, there's also uh, like a
Speaker 1: for instance, Sara Junes nion cat uh gifts sold for
Speaker 1: five and eighty thousand dollars uh when it was because
Speaker 1: it was like attached to a very specific blockchain signature.
Speaker 1: And so it's just yeah, it's just people agreeing that
Speaker 1: this thing is going to have value. I'm curious and
Speaker 1: maybe he's like getting sleuth can look into how much
Speaker 1: of that money is Sarry Jun Seng for having created
Speaker 1: that gift? Yeah, right, like zero? We should just pull
Speaker 1: up to whoever owns that gift and be like, yo,
Speaker 1: run your ship. Yeah, well that's also it's also worth
Speaker 1: asking the question of how much money does Lebron James
Speaker 1: get for a top shot, right, is it this. I
Speaker 1: assume it's officially licensed to the National Basketball Players Association,
Speaker 1: So there's probably some profit that these people make um
Speaker 1: on the use of their likeness, just like a slush
Speaker 1: fund of like, Okay, you get this check for the
Speaker 1: fact that we put your face on this thing and
Speaker 1: this thing and that thing. But it's not it's not
Speaker 1: it's probably not significant money, and so it's just basically
Speaker 1: fancy ways to dress up your blockchain money kind of essentially, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're like, yeah, I got I got my k in
Speaker 1: bitcoin in a Lebron gold bar basically Lebron gift gold
Speaker 1: bar essentially, yeah, basically, and then you just have to
Speaker 1: hope that people still care about Lebron James dunking over,
Speaker 1: people care about how many how much energy these motherfuckers
Speaker 1: used to fucking do all these bitcoin mining is. Yeah,
Speaker 1: That's one point that this article and Axios is pointing
Speaker 1: out is that like, especially the art world side of it,
Speaker 1: which is all on this specific exchange that I can't
Speaker 1: remember or probably even pronounce the name of, but it's
Speaker 1: like notorious for having one of the worst carbon footprints
Speaker 1: because like the reason that blockchain is is impossible to
Speaker 1: recreate like at least part of it is that you
Speaker 1: are having to like go through all these computing like
Speaker 1: all this computing power and computing energy to like create one, right,
Speaker 1: So like it's they were comparing some of it to
Speaker 1: like what one of these things is the equivalent of
Speaker 1: dry having a thousand kilometers in a car, And one
Speaker 1: of the artists was like, yeah, that's cool because the
Speaker 1: carbon equivalent of like that is the carbon equivalent of
Speaker 1: running my studio for a full year, is the lord. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's like the other fie. It's so got the two
Speaker 1: sides of that. It's like yeah, but also the carbon
Speaker 1: emissions off of making our gift money is to room.
Speaker 1: But keep in mind there is mars we can always
Speaker 1: go to. Motherfucker. We're not getting there, I'll tell you that,
Speaker 1: and not people of our dollar denomination group. We gotta
Speaker 1: started working harder if we want our kids to these
Speaker 1: sexy blockchain gifts. That's why you need to get at
Speaker 1: a top shot so you can save up to get
Speaker 1: your children. Actually you can't. If you're willing to sell
Speaker 1: your children off into indentured servitude, you can, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: so just sell your child into indentured servitudes on Mars.
Speaker 1: That's gonna be some real ship. They're gonna say it
Speaker 1: like seventy years. Depends on how serious you are about
Speaker 1: getting your paper up man. That's all up. Those numbers
Speaker 1: up man, those are rookie numbs. You really want to
Speaker 1: be like your idol, Magic Johnson the businessman. I mean,
Speaker 1: you have to make some real moves in all right,
Speaker 1: let's take one more break and we'll be right back
Speaker 1: and we're back. What is something you think is overrated?
Speaker 1: Garrison robots Jesus Christ. Everyone's like, oh, robots are so fun. Like, no,
Speaker 1: they've done like nothing good effort. They've only been that. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think all it's done is the best thing people
Speaker 1: can say robots have done. It's like it's help people
Speaker 1: make more money faster. That's yeah. Basically then yes, there's
Speaker 1: like medical applications, but I think like overall, I think
Speaker 1: those robotics things I think of just like the factory
Speaker 1: lines and like how much more you can crank out
Speaker 1: with robots and things like that, but how it's making
Speaker 1: making the environment. Whereas there once we start giving robots guns,
Speaker 1: that's gonna suck. Um. They're all bad. I don't think
Speaker 1: anything really good is gonna come to robots, but people
Speaker 1: still like them because Star Wars. I guess I don't know.
Speaker 1: I like, I like Star Wars, and of course I
Speaker 1: like R two D two, but I don't. I'm terrif
Speaker 1: like anti homeless robot is kind of like R two
Speaker 1: D two shaped, so sad co opt his beautiful It
Speaker 1: sucks because like the robot just goes around like pokes
Speaker 1: people the worst and you can get in a lot
Speaker 1: of trouble from breaking it. Oh, it sucks terrible. What
Speaker 1: other what other robots are like being used? I guess
Speaker 1: I guess there's like you were saying, the factory floor robots,
Speaker 1: factory robots, I mean you and you know, think of
Speaker 1: like a computer flowing like drones and stuff for surveillance
Speaker 1: from dropping bombs. Um, I don't know, just like robots
Speaker 1: in general, just I don't. I don't. I can't think
Speaker 1: of very many good ones. They need They need a
Speaker 1: pr campaign, like to write the ship for that, because like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you could cut together a bunch of horrific robot videos,
Speaker 1: but like where is the one you're like, oh, robot
Speaker 1: or you're like, you know what, that's that robot? That
Speaker 1: robot did good? Well, in in the Star Wars universe,
Speaker 1: robots are like a thing that people who are you know,
Speaker 1: lower class or like farm laborers, like work with and
Speaker 1: like sell parts for and they're basically stars. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: they're basically slaves and like treated like absolute ship. But
Speaker 1: in reality they are a tool of Like you have
Speaker 1: to be a massive corporation to create or the military
Speaker 1: to create a robot. It's not like people are just
Speaker 1: like picking up robot parts and building their own robots.
Speaker 1: I didn't have that lego kit, right, technically made a robots. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but that's like a fantasy of Hollywood that like robots
Speaker 1: are just like a a thing that we can all
Speaker 1: just like we don't have to feel bad about, right,
Speaker 1: I think, Yeah, like real Steel, that huge huge Jackman
Speaker 1: movie where like the robots are like hang out in
Speaker 1: junkyards and like they pick up little pieces from Wait,
Speaker 1: they were sentient in that movie. No, No, that that's
Speaker 1: just like where you find them there, got you. I
Speaker 1: thought like there was a bunch of robots kicking in
Speaker 1: a junk ard like smoking cigarettes, like throwing dice or something.
Speaker 1: They're just on shutdown boat, right um Wally also Wally
Speaker 1: also yeah, one of the great robots. But while he's
Speaker 1: not Wally, he's not rolling through a door. I mean,
Speaker 1: and Wally's existence is a example of how messed up
Speaker 1: everything is. The whole robot basically making cities out of
Speaker 1: trash because we recked the earth. So yeah, again, it's
Speaker 1: not we don't want to have a Wally robot. If
Speaker 1: we have a Wally robot, we're already in a lot
Speaker 1: of trouble. Yeah, we're pretty sucked up. But he's so cute.
Speaker 1: Maybe it's worth it. I don't know. Do you have
Speaker 1: something do you think is overrated? Okay, I got one?
Speaker 1: Constantly having a runny nose? What the fuck is going
Speaker 1: on with my body? Since I wasn't alive then, I
Speaker 1: was only born three years ago. When I was born
Speaker 1: a few years back, because I'm a yeah, I have
Speaker 1: had actually legitally I was born. My nose has not
Speaker 1: stopped running since, Thank you for being honest. My nose
Speaker 1: will not stop running. It runs seven. It runs when
Speaker 1: it's cold, it runs when it's hot, it's runs when
Speaker 1: I eat spicy, runs my cold food, and runs when
Speaker 1: I like. At all times, my nose is running. Do
Speaker 1: you remember a few years back, I sent you that
Speaker 1: article that was like this girl just thought she had
Speaker 1: a running nose. Turns out it was her brain fluids leaking.
Speaker 1: My doctor said, it's not that I did. I straight
Speaker 1: up took that article on my phone likes talked about it.
Speaker 1: Look at yeah, and he's like, no, because you haven't
Speaker 1: experienced in extreme brain trauma. And I was like, how
Speaker 1: do you know what point you don't talking about works?
Speaker 1: Because I did. Actually as a child, around two years old,
Speaker 1: I did break my head. It's a true story. My
Speaker 1: brother were playing Roadrunner and coyote and he shut a
Speaker 1: door on my head and my head hit the metal
Speaker 1: like class part of the door, and I had to
Speaker 1: get stitches as you can see, Like that's where I
Speaker 1: always have this mark on my head that I had stitches. Yeah,
Speaker 1: to have stitches go all the way up my head.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, okay, well two years old. My doctor
Speaker 1: literally hates me. I'm like, got two years old? I
Speaker 1: had this right, Okay, I hit, I had real heart,
Speaker 1: So would that explain why my nose has been running since?
Speaker 1: He's like no, no. Then I was like wow, but
Speaker 1: I know, And I was like, well, I paid about
Speaker 1: played about five years of rugby two years in Division
Speaker 1: one college. Would that explain it? And he's like, I
Speaker 1: don't know, do you have any medical tests? From that point,
Speaker 1: I'm like, who knows, I don't know. Check out. I
Speaker 1: did get a few concussions during that time because I
Speaker 1: was I was paying a rowdy I had a bit
Speaker 1: of a rowdy, reckless era when I was playing rugby,
Speaker 1: because you know when you're like always you've been so
Speaker 1: like buttoned up because your parents are like aggressive, intense,
Speaker 1: like sheltering immigrants, and the next thing you know, you're
Speaker 1: on a field and you're like yeah, So I was
Speaker 1: like m v P for a little while because I
Speaker 1: was just going to wild on the truly. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: really was like a time where all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: I was like I'm free, baby, yeah, and I was
Speaker 1: like tackling like a madwoman and h dislocated the majority
Speaker 1: of my fingers during those years. But um yeah, so
Speaker 1: like I was like, well what about that, Maybe that's why,
Speaker 1: And he's like, I have no like I wasn't your doctor,
Speaker 1: and then I can't really like tell you, so, um,
Speaker 1: I'm I think it's my brain fluids. Yeah, okay, sounds
Speaker 1: like he's not paying enough attention to the links that
Speaker 1: you send him constantly? Are you checking your I G
Speaker 1: d M I'm in requests? Oh my god, doctor, please
Speaker 1: put me in a primary or at least general so
Speaker 1: you can see what I'm sending you. These I G
Speaker 1: t V links are really informative. Well, I'll just tell
Speaker 1: you that last time I tried to make an appointment
Speaker 1: during the pandemic, he said, it's really not necessary for
Speaker 1: you to come in. Yeah, I mean that is that
Speaker 1: is as the board. Why is my nose running right?
Speaker 1: It's like, but here's the thing, and when you come in,
Speaker 1: you then just show me YouTube videos for about thirty minutes.
Speaker 1: And right now my attention is really it's precious. So
Speaker 1: I have to be able to give it to me
Speaker 1: any medical I know, I knew what it was a
Speaker 1: long shot, but I still don't truly understand why of
Speaker 1: funds so much like the editors on my show, shout
Speaker 1: out Billy Klein. This poor guy. Literally I one time
Speaker 1: read his instructions for editing that he was handing off
Speaker 1: the editing to someone else, and he says, I just
Speaker 1: remove all the like sniffles and like clear like wiping
Speaker 1: of the nose and I'm like, don't be telling people
Speaker 1: the parts where they're the noses audibly dripping in. I
Speaker 1: was like, oh, that's a problem for my editors at
Speaker 1: this point, Like that's when you know you kind of
Speaker 1: problem if they're like, yeah, I actually to spend about
Speaker 1: two hours more on each episode removing all her sniffing.
Speaker 1: So I don't know, it's overrated. I don't care for it.
Speaker 1: I always have to have tissues on me at all times.
Speaker 1: Sinuses are a mystery. Um and it's it's extra high
Speaker 1: high stakes now because uh, stuffy knows is like one
Speaker 1: of the symptoms of COVID. But it's not stuffy. It's
Speaker 1: never stuffy. It's just always dripping. It's always got a
Speaker 1: drip running drip running too apparently. Um so maybe your
Speaker 1: your nose is just stunting, you know. I think at
Speaker 1: this point that's the diagnosis. That's like, honestly, I think
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to diagnose your nose as stunting. Alright.
Speaker 1: I like that, Doc, and you take that. He's like,
Speaker 1: thank god you last. He asked old what to diagnose
Speaker 1: you would get you to leave him the lounge? Sound
Speaker 1: like I should is stunting? Dad? All right, that's gonna
Speaker 1: do it. For this week's weekly Zeitgeist, Please like and
Speaker 1: review the show. If you like the show, uh means
