Speaker 1: to rot my tooth. Now I'm falling even more in
Speaker 1: love with do whether it is green or red or blue.
Speaker 1: I'm drinking this until it makes me puke. Maybe I

Speaker 1: And I'm thrilled to be joined by today's special guest
Speaker 1: co host, He Hilarious, the talented, the brilliant Jamie Loft
Speaker 1: us a few times about a game stop stock, So
Speaker 1: I'm not just gonna sell when that ship drops, because
Speaker 1: i ain't no dollar. Heck, girl came from Nick Draykovsky.
Speaker 1: I like it. I still don't totally understand what happened there,
Speaker 1: but I do know that the guy that did it
Speaker 1: then the guy who you see his picture and you're like,
Speaker 1: oh no, he's uh he lived in my hometown for
Speaker 1: a while, so yeah, I think he went to college there.
Speaker 1: So we don't we we don't claim him, but unfortunately
Speaker 1: he's been nebracton the the athletic headband uh wristband combo
Speaker 1: matching is an underrated look for sure. Back bringing it
Speaker 1: back well, we are thrilled to be joined in our
Speaker 1: third seat by the hilarious and talented newly a writer
Speaker 1: of Rick and Morty. He is Mr Cody Zigla. This
Speaker 1: odd hush can grab it and that's exciting. That is
Speaker 1: super exciting. I'm I'm both super excited for you, obviously,
Speaker 1: but very excited for Rick and Morty. I think some
Speaker 1: new blood. Yeah, yeah, I'm very stoked. We were supposed
Speaker 1: to start as of this recording yesterday, but things got
Speaker 1: pushed back, so I have one more week to be
Speaker 1: very nervous until I, uh get accustomed to the room.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm I'm very stoked. It's it's nice because
Speaker 1: I'm still eggsiled from l A. I've been sequestered in
Speaker 1: North Carolina because I foolishly decided to come and spend
Speaker 1: the fall here and then I didn't think that I'd
Speaker 1: get trapped and so like, I've been basically stuck here
Speaker 1: until I can find an opening to fly back. So
Speaker 1: it'll be it'll be a nicing to like, keep me busy.
Speaker 1: You are missing it out man, it is La. It's
Speaker 1: so perfect right now you guys can finally eat out again.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I've been eating outdoors every single night. The
Speaker 1: fury I feel, the fury I feel. But the you
Speaker 1: did miss the holly Holly boob thing Hollywood sign. I
Speaker 1: can sort of see the sign from my apartment, and
Speaker 1: I would like to see Holly boob for you know,
Speaker 1: the three hours I probably would have been up before
Speaker 1: taking down. Yeah, I do have to say I like hollyweed.
Speaker 1: I believe was the brainchild of like a person. It
Speaker 1: was better conceived, I think because the word works better. Um,
Speaker 1: although holly boob, like the sweatiness of it, I got,
Speaker 1: I kind of do like, but then like just in
Speaker 1: terms of like the b that was supposed to cover
Speaker 1: the W was like kind of slumping off and then
Speaker 1: they try to turn the D into a B and Uh,
Speaker 1: not our best work. But why do I try to
Speaker 1: improve upon perfection? Yeah? Hollyweed? Uh? In history, how many
Speaker 1: people did it take to come up with hollyweed? It
Speaker 1: took two people to write your A K A. How
Speaker 1: many people? They probably had a whole remote room there,
Speaker 1: they had like a mini room. Yeah, all right, they
Speaker 1: We're gonna get to know you a little bit better
Speaker 1: in a moment. First, we're going to tell our listeners
Speaker 1: a couple of the things we're talking about. The Democrats
Speaker 1: delivered their impeachment filing yesterday morning. The Republicans I think
Speaker 1: are delivering their rebuttal or whatever the funk it's called,
Speaker 1: I think by noon yesterday, so it's out there you
Speaker 1: could probably read it. Uh. So we'll talk about just
Speaker 1: how that whole thing is shaping up, whether the coronavirus
Speaker 1: is becoming more deep politicized. Uh. We're gonna take a
Speaker 1: look at two upcoming sporting events. The Australian Open uh
Speaker 1: in tennis is coming up, as well as the American
Speaker 1: Big Game, the Super Bowl. That you're not supposed to
Speaker 1: call the Super Bowl. So we'll talk about that and
Speaker 1: just the precautions and how how the two events reflect
Speaker 1: on how successful the two nations have been during this pandemic. Uh.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about New York City restaurants they're opening for
Speaker 1: Valentine's Day, the best, as we all know, the best
Speaker 1: day to go to a restaurant for sure on Valentine's
Speaker 1: Day Day. Yeah, very very Uh. We will talk about
Speaker 1: there's like a new rule for the Minneapolis p D
Speaker 1: about body cams that CNN reported on completely incorrectly, So
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that, talk about the latest on the
Speaker 1: game stop thing. Uh. We'll talk about a very wholesome
Speaker 1: story in the UK that I I was completely unaware of,
Speaker 1: but it kind of came to a sad close captain
Speaker 1: Sir Tom Moore, um, the one hundred year old who
Speaker 1: captivated a nation. Uh, and very wholesome story that feels
Speaker 1: like an alternate timeline in a universe where like the
Speaker 1: where our world hasn't become like yeah, awesome old guys story,
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, But before we get to any of that, zig,
Speaker 1: we like to ask our guess, what is something from
Speaker 1: your search history that's revealing about who you are, oh boy.
Speaker 1: As I was talking to DJ Dan before we started recording.
Speaker 1: I finally got my PS five back like two weeks ago.
Speaker 1: It broke so like my latest, literally my latest christree
Speaker 1: was PS five hard drive because I had no storage
Speaker 1: to put on my game. So, um, I bought one
Speaker 1: at Gate. He got here yesterday. You boys plugged in.
Speaker 1: He's logged in, he's in the he's in the matrix.
Speaker 1: He's just downloading his games. He's backing things up. So
Speaker 1: we're good now. So you you the PS five was
Speaker 1: hard to come by. You already got that. So this
Speaker 1: is what happened. I um, I somehow managed to weasel
Speaker 1: my way into a pre order, like in September. Then,
Speaker 1: um I I immediately flew out to North Carolina, and
Speaker 1: I forgot that I had a pre order until I
Speaker 1: got an email like saying, hey, your things about the ship.
Speaker 1: So I had to like scramble and somehow get it
Speaker 1: shipped to my house, my mom's house in New York
Speaker 1: or in North Carolina, and I got it working, and
Speaker 1: it worked for like a solid two weeks and then
Speaker 1: it just just bricked on me. I took yeah, and
Speaker 1: I was like well, fuck, this is my This is
Speaker 1: like the one thing that's gonna keep me saying while
Speaker 1: I was sort of stuck here the definite so I
Speaker 1: had to ship it off and got fixed fixed, meaning
Speaker 1: like they just sent me a new one in like
Speaker 1: two and a half weeks and like I got it
Speaker 1: back like two weeks ago. So I've been like trying
Speaker 1: to play my games, but I forgot that I left
Speaker 1: the only two PlayStation five games that I have I
Speaker 1: left at my dad's house. So I've just been playing
Speaker 1: old PS four games. I mean, it's a really hard
Speaker 1: life out your guys. I was like, this is a
Speaker 1: really complicated process. I mean, I'm choking down these p
Speaker 1: F four PS four games and ten a DP I need,
Speaker 1: I need four K. But I do love referring to
Speaker 1: it as playing my games, like you're stories my stories. Um.
Speaker 1: But other than immediately breaking has the PS five like
Speaker 1: your experience with it? Does it live up to the hut?
Speaker 1: I think it does. It's the first it's the first
Speaker 1: new game since I've ever bought in my entire life,
Speaker 1: so I think that's where most of myce to the
Speaker 1: mentality is going from. I will say it is enormous
Speaker 1: like it is the biggest thing I think I've ever seen,
Speaker 1: Like it's probably it's definitely bigger than my laptop. It's
Speaker 1: almost as big as a TV that I played on.
Speaker 1: Like that's like that's the only thing that would have
Speaker 1: warriors them. I'm like, oh, how the hell am I
Speaker 1: going to get this thing on a plane? Here? It's
Speaker 1: it's enormous. It's like shockingly large. It's like it'll take
Speaker 1: your it's almost it's border's own breathtaking. I think, is
Speaker 1: it loud? That's my this is like the girlfriend est
Speaker 1: question ever. But every time I passed the PS four
Speaker 1: I'm like, why is this so fucking loud? Like I
Speaker 1: will say this one, this one like you know what's on?
Speaker 1: Like you know it's you know, it's using that four
Speaker 1: K technology because it's it'll be singing like it lets
Speaker 1: it it lays a clip out a fan. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: just like it'll do this thing where like you're just
Speaker 1: watching a movie, like you're streaming something and then all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's just like that's how I know
Speaker 1: the movie said, and that's how I know this scene
Speaker 1: was shot. This must be like an iMac scene because
Speaker 1: this thing is really working right now. Yeah, Um, what
Speaker 1: is something you think is underrated? Underrated? Great question, Jack,
Speaker 1: thank you so much. I will say underrated is any
Speaker 1: type of YouTube cooking video. Like we've all been in
Speaker 1: pandemic now for almost a year, so we've all been
Speaker 1: cooking at home. Like I have really been tearing through
Speaker 1: um YouTube cooking videos. But not just like you know,
Speaker 1: the dude or the lady or whoever sitting in their kitchen,
Speaker 1: Like have you seen those videos of like it'll just
Speaker 1: be like some random like Hungarian man with like a
Speaker 1: big knife in the woods, just cooking in a pot.
Speaker 1: Have you seen those videos? What? Like Yeah, he'll he'll
Speaker 1: he'll like build a fire. It just has this giant
Speaker 1: or dane knife and like he'll he'll be like him
Speaker 1: cutting up the meat and cutting up the onions, and
Speaker 1: like he always puts like the spices on the giant
Speaker 1: knife and then dumps it into like his like cast
Speaker 1: iron as he's cooking over wood. The one that I
Speaker 1: watched the most is called Men with the Pot. I
Speaker 1: think he's like a Polish or Hungarian guy because it'll
Speaker 1: have like salt in English and then we'll have like
Speaker 1: whatever like language he speaks translated, and it's just him
Speaker 1: cooking random, delicious looking food in the woods with a
Speaker 1: pot and one giant knife. No spatulors, no no tongs.
Speaker 1: It's just a dude with a big gas knife in
Speaker 1: the woods. I love that when whenever you see videos
Speaker 1: like that, I'm like, does this know does this guy
Speaker 1: know about the coronavirus or is he just like been
Speaker 1: in the woods with his knife for years. It's amazing
Speaker 1: just doing this thing. It's great. I do wonder are there,
Speaker 1: like remember that article right after Trump won where the
Speaker 1: New York Times guy is like he's not a New
Speaker 1: York Time he doesn't work for the New York Times,
Speaker 1: but he's just like the most New York Times reader
Speaker 1: that The New York Times has ever profiled. He's got
Speaker 1: a beard and like a tote bag, and he like
Speaker 1: had quarantined himself off from the real world so he
Speaker 1: wouldn't find out who won the election and was like
Speaker 1: living in a separate reality. I wish I could have
Speaker 1: that type of privilege. I could escape reality for four years.
Speaker 1: Wonder if he's still out there and doesn't know about
Speaker 1: the Maybe this is the guy he's own developed. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I love isolated people with YouTube channels. It's so you
Speaker 1: have you have you? Have you seen the dude that
Speaker 1: builds like spas in the middle of the jungle in
Speaker 1: South America, like carves them into the ground. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: just this one dude. He has two tools and it's
Speaker 1: just him like moving tons of dirt and building like
Speaker 1: elaborate spas in the middle of no in the jungle.
Speaker 1: It's great. How do you get there? Like how do
Speaker 1: you arrive at that point where you're like this is
Speaker 1: it for me? Like I've done it. It's like the
Speaker 1: Rock the Raccoon Guy channel that he's like it's this
Speaker 1: old man in Canada and he leaves out food and
Speaker 1: then there's like fifty raccoons that comes to his porch
Speaker 1: every day and he has five trillion subscribers. That's my life.
Speaker 1: Give me that nice, it's nice. And octopus teacher, it's
Speaker 1: like my occopus teacher, but with fifty raccoons, my fifty
Speaker 1: raccoon teachers. I do think that there's like a fascination
Speaker 1: with like the blending of Yeah, like a spa that's
Speaker 1: like dug into just like Earth, or you know, a
Speaker 1: cooking video that's like that. The sort of complete other
Speaker 1: end of that continuum is that the new Amazon building.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys saw that, but it's
Speaker 1: like they've created this giant, like prism shaped, uh spiral skyscraper,
Speaker 1: but like like caked a park onto the outside of it,
Speaker 1: so that like there's like a big full super villain stuff.
Speaker 1: I love it. Yeah, really at this point? Why not? Yeah? Um, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's very lystium but kind of Uh, what is what's
Speaker 1: something you think is overrated? Oh? Boy? Literally any type
Speaker 1: of online discourse, Like I just can't take anything, even
Speaker 1: if it's it could be the most munday a thing
Speaker 1: like oh the nude the Snyder cuts coming out, Like
Speaker 1: I don't want to see anyone's opinion on anything, including
Speaker 1: my own, Like I don't even want my own opinion online.
Speaker 1: Like I just can't take any type of discourse at
Speaker 1: this point in the year one, Like I'm so over
Speaker 1: Like it's exhausting to the point where like if I
Speaker 1: didn't have to use you know, Twitter for like work stuff,
Speaker 1: I would gladly just disappear into the ether and never
Speaker 1: come back. It's so exhausting. Yeah, and it's like I
Speaker 1: don't know it's I I earlier in quarantine. I used
Speaker 1: to kind of like delight in very simple aggressive discourse
Speaker 1: because you're like wet. But it's yeah, even that has
Speaker 1: kind of run its course. I just want to descend
Speaker 1: into like one of the one of the dirt spas.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't like it's it's so fun, not
Speaker 1: a well fun, but the big extric meaning painful watching
Speaker 1: like any reply guy replied, like the most fun thing thing, Like, um,
Speaker 1: I had a friend that you know that that mean
Speaker 1: that was going around of like um Kate Blanchet and
Speaker 1: tyke y t d um on thee like like whatever,
Speaker 1: like this girl in like blank boyfriend like he had
Speaker 1: one with like me explaining podcasting to my girlfriend who
Speaker 1: just came home from nursing whenever, and like it's like
Speaker 1: some random person just replied why would I care about this?
Speaker 1: I'm just like that that's a funny thing to sage
Speaker 1: like just a stranger, but like why even think the
Speaker 1: energy to like throw shoot on this person that you
Speaker 1: don't know? Why do I care? Though? Like can you
Speaker 1: explain that to me? That's a beautiful reply to any
Speaker 1: tweet that was Matt mat Appy dappy shout to um, Yeah,
Speaker 1: somebody tag me on that because that is a constant
Speaker 1: experience that I have. Um. Yeah, but like the podcast
Speaker 1: today was really pretty tough. You know, I think we're
Speaker 1: talking about frump stuff and that guy's a real down
Speaker 1: or how about you, yeah Jack, why is your podcast
Speaker 1: so negative? I've need to ask you that. Um you
Speaker 1: mentioned the Snyder cut. I am like becoming increasingly more
Speaker 1: and more fascinated by this. Um. I mean, look, people
Speaker 1: like love what you love. Um, I'm not here to
Speaker 1: pp on anyone's parade or you anyone jump. I do
Speaker 1: think it is wild. It's probably one of the funniest
Speaker 1: things I've ever heard of, Like a movie that was
Speaker 1: so bad that they had to rehire the original director
Speaker 1: and then dump seventy million dollars into it to make
Speaker 1: it better, to then dump it on like a video
Speaker 1: plus streaming platform like I I don't like I It's
Speaker 1: I can't even begin to fathom. It's so wildly funny
Speaker 1: to me that they're like, you know what we need
Speaker 1: to give this movie that no one liked another another injection,
Speaker 1: a little stimulus injection. Let's go ahead and see what
Speaker 1: happens by a stimul stimulus That is where yeah, uh
Speaker 1: it's four Like has there been a successful movie that
Speaker 1: is four hours long? Like Titanic is three hours and
Speaker 1: twenty three minutes, And that's the longest movie I can
Speaker 1: remember or conceive of. There's definitely like a cap right
Speaker 1: because it wasn't like Avatar, like five hours long. But
Speaker 1: no one could tell you what happens in that movie, Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I remember Avatar being the only thing I remember Avatar
Speaker 1: is that it had the only use of three D
Speaker 1: that I thought was interesting. But again, I don't know
Speaker 1: what happened in the store. Besides, there's like a big
Speaker 1: tree that got blown up, and then like Weaver was
Speaker 1: like a cat lady. That's all that I really remember
Speaker 1: about that movie. Remember the cats. I've rewatched Avatar a
Speaker 1: couple of months ago, and that's an Avatar. I have
Speaker 1: a costume, and I literally couldn't tell you what happens
Speaker 1: in the movie, like it just goes right through you
Speaker 1: the juice ones. I had no idea Avatar was almost
Speaker 1: three hours long, and I yeah, I saw it and
Speaker 1: I really loved it. Like my eyes were like dried
Speaker 1: out by the end of it, because I didn't want
Speaker 1: to blank. I was like, whoa, this is amazing um.
Speaker 1: And then I went into a deep depression because Avatar
Speaker 1: World was not real. I was gonna say, that's my favorite,
Speaker 1: that's one of my favorite before times. Uh, like non
Speaker 1: issues is like I can't believe Avatar World isn't real.
Speaker 1: I'd better die like it was. I do want to read.
Speaker 1: I think I am going to rewatch it now, just
Speaker 1: because I haven't seen it probably in like ten years
Speaker 1: or wouldn't however long ago it came out, and I'm
Speaker 1: so see what happened? Does it not hold up? I mean,
Speaker 1: you're the premier stand it doesn't. It doesn't hold up.
Speaker 1: And I didn't like it the first time I saw it,
Speaker 1: but the like I love I love the cats. I
Speaker 1: love that the cats have sex with their tails. Uh.
Speaker 1: And then there's like this, I don't know. I could
Speaker 1: get into Avatar Ship all day. Unfortunately, there's like a
Speaker 1: whole amazing story of how much money went into that
Speaker 1: movie movie and how much money was given to like
Speaker 1: all of these um experts, and like James Cameron was
Speaker 1: like I want this to be a blend of five
Speaker 1: hundred cultures, and like he hired all these experts and
Speaker 1: then he used none of it and just madd like
Speaker 1: about the American Army at the end. But there was
Speaker 1: all this cool work that went into it and they
Speaker 1: used zero percent of its kind of fun. Um. I
Speaker 1: actually became depressed that Clash of the Titans wasn't real,
Speaker 1: which was the movie that came out right after it,
Speaker 1: and was like they were like, oh yeah, I won't
Speaker 1: make it three D and it just looked like like
Speaker 1: cut it out of construction paper. Um, all right, let's uh,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. Won't come back and talk
Speaker 1: about news. We're back. The Democrats delivered their impeachment file.
Speaker 1: There's nothing super surprising here. I'll just read like the summary. Um,
Speaker 1: President Trump's responsibility for the events of January six is unmistakable.
Speaker 1: His effort to extend his grip on power by fomenting
Speaker 1: violence against Congress was a profound violation of the oathis war.
Speaker 1: If provoking an insurrectionary riot against a joint session of
Speaker 1: Congress after losing an election is not an impeachible offense,
Speaker 1: it is hard to imagine what would be. Um. That's yeah,
Speaker 1: it's literally you know, describing what we all saw. I
Speaker 1: was hoping there might be like some additional evidence that
Speaker 1: they like found more plotting or collusion between the GOP
Speaker 1: and the people who rated the Capital building. But I
Speaker 1: don't know if that is still being looked into or what.
Speaker 1: But I haven't heard anything about that from the people
Speaker 1: who actually read these like eighty pages of the filing. Either.
Speaker 1: You watch aoc S live. I didn't the whole thing,
Speaker 1: but it was I was moved. That was like so
Speaker 1: upsetting and I'm so glad that she did it. You're
Speaker 1: talking about Yeah, I um. I watched like I saw
Speaker 1: like a clip on Twitter. It's like, I'll let me
Speaker 1: go check this out. And then I was voted for
Speaker 1: like an hour and twenty minutes, however long. It was
Speaker 1: like it was a long ass like a lot, like
Speaker 1: she really went in, but she sort of just sort
Speaker 1: of like walked through like from her point of view,
Speaker 1: like what she experienced that week, and like the main
Speaker 1: points were like yeah, everyone sort of like tried to
Speaker 1: spin in this, like we didn't know this was happening.
Speaker 1: Who could have thought coming? But she was like even
Speaker 1: like a week before that, like we were I was.
Speaker 1: She personally was getting um texts and messages from like
Speaker 1: other members of Congress been like hey, you should like
Speaker 1: put together, so I have a plan because we're getting
Speaker 1: sort of rumbling the things we're gonna pop off next Wednesday.
Speaker 1: Then she sort of walked to the timeline. She's like,
Speaker 1: you know, Monday, like there were like Trump supporters in
Speaker 1: town like holding rallies and like they was sort of
Speaker 1: did this tense thing, and then like Tuesday, it really
Speaker 1: felt like there was a powder keg. And then for Wednesday,
Speaker 1: like the most horroring part was like her walking through
Speaker 1: like you know, the like you know insurrection, just like
Speaker 1: rushing the capital and her her and like one of
Speaker 1: her aids hiding in her like her room and like
Speaker 1: her office and whatever. She was like trapped in the
Speaker 1: bathroom like behind the door as the door opened and
Speaker 1: the guy's yelling like where is she? Where we need
Speaker 1: to find her? And like there was a whole moment
Speaker 1: where she talked about, you know, she read into a
Speaker 1: Capitol Police um officer, but like the vibe just felt
Speaker 1: completely off, like she couldn't tell if he was there
Speaker 1: to like actually a sister or like maybe he had
Speaker 1: something like a little bit more nefarious plotting, like he
Speaker 1: didn't have a partner, Like he didn't identify himself like
Speaker 1: just a lot of very scary, scary shit um and like,
Speaker 1: you know, this is like me distilling down like an
Speaker 1: hour and twenty minutes of this, so like I really
Speaker 1: do recommend people go to watch it. She really spells
Speaker 1: it out, and it is like a very terrifying um
Speaker 1: um story that that she like sort of telling. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she and I liked she didn't like there's nothing to like,
Speaker 1: but it was like really effective. I like when when
Speaker 1: she was kind of describing like the fallout of all
Speaker 1: of that, and like how Cruise and Holly were kind
Speaker 1: of spinning it to be like get the funk over it.
Speaker 1: It was two days ago, and like essentially like made
Speaker 1: an effective argument that that is like classic like gaslighting
Speaker 1: abuser tactics, except instead of one person, it's on like
Speaker 1: an entire body of people and also the country. And like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know, she broke it down really really effectively.
Speaker 1: I don't know how, Like, I don't know how she
Speaker 1: does it. I would be a fucking puddle. People mentioned
Speaker 1: like the fact that the idea that the Democrats like
Speaker 1: don't have really a leader, like somebody to inherit the
Speaker 1: mantel because it's the Garontogracy. I've there's not a single
Speaker 1: instance where I haven't been just like fucking blown away
Speaker 1: by her. She's amazing. Every time you hear somebody talk
Speaker 1: about the actual experience of being there, it's really like
Speaker 1: grounds it because it is so mind blowing and like
Speaker 1: far from what you would expect could have happened. And
Speaker 1: even the response to it has like found a way
Speaker 1: to sort of make it abstract or you know, to
Speaker 1: make it like distance us from it and just like
Speaker 1: taking it back to hearing what it was to be
Speaker 1: a member of Congress as as this thing. It just
Speaker 1: makes it very clear, like what they were trying to do,
Speaker 1: what what the people the insurrectionists were trying to do.
Speaker 1: One of the more surprising things one of Trump's defense
Speaker 1: counsels went on Hannity last night, and it seems like
Speaker 1: a big part of their defense is still going to
Speaker 1: be the idea that he can't be impeached because he's
Speaker 1: no longer in office. You can't impeach him if he's
Speaker 1: in Florida, which it's like, there's not really a case legally,
Speaker 1: right like their historic lead, Yeah, the precedent is that
Speaker 1: you can do that legally and historically, Um, I think
Speaker 1: maybe because impeachment is like purely a political spectacle. I
Speaker 1: think the Republicans are going to use the the argument
Speaker 1: of can't we just move on? Like you're pulling us
Speaker 1: back into this rancor, and I do worry that it's
Speaker 1: going to be effective in the way, like if you
Speaker 1: conducted a CBS focus group of like how people think
Speaker 1: about that. I do feel like because of the way
Speaker 1: the media has covered it and sort of abstracted it
Speaker 1: from what actually happened and how dramatic and dangerous was,
Speaker 1: I do feel like people will be like, yeah, let's
Speaker 1: just move on, um, which is I feel like, and
Speaker 1: like the center, like the more centered dems. I feel
Speaker 1: like I've already kind of been playing ball that front anyways,
Speaker 1: where they've kind of like it's this whole like unity message,
Speaker 1: like that is the word that's being used to be like,
Speaker 1: let's just all that stuff that happened literally three weeks ago, Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's come together like just I don't know, I find
Speaker 1: it incredibly gaslighty and conflict avoided, but like it seems
Speaker 1: like they're playing ball with it, or some of them are,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, And to that point. I think
Speaker 1: that's what I enjoy and enjoy doing a lot of
Speaker 1: heavy lifting. That's what I respect more most. I think
Speaker 1: about these younger congressmen like AOC and Nalahun and all
Speaker 1: those where they're like, I'm not trying to be unity
Speaker 1: with somebody tried to have me killed three weeks ago.
Speaker 1: It's like, I'm so mad about this. You get this
Speaker 1: ship figured out right, and then like having the response
Speaker 1: be like why why everyone else seems fine and it's
Speaker 1: like clip uh, it's it's yeah. I can't imagine how
Speaker 1: frustrating that experiences, but it seems like and like it
Speaker 1: almost feels like they're kind of taking advantage of the
Speaker 1: fact that the entire higher country does not want to
Speaker 1: think about Donald Trump anymore to be like, let's just
Speaker 1: let this go. Let's just let it go. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think strategy, yeah, yeah, I hope it does not work,
Speaker 1: but it seems like it will. Yeah, because like Democrats
Speaker 1: are like, yeah, let's like not think about that anymore.
Speaker 1: Let's move forward. Because that was a stressful time when
Speaker 1: we had to pay attention to politics, and then Republicans
Speaker 1: obviously don't want to continue to be the center of
Speaker 1: attention for their shitty Uh yeah, yeah, already already the
Speaker 1: centrism is already like driving me. It's it's yeah. I
Speaker 1: just saw an article that was like the two most
Speaker 1: powerful Democratic senators and it was Mansion in cinema. Man,
Speaker 1: what They've got a direct line into Joe Biden's Paul
Speaker 1: to see. We got two people, we got a bully. Yeah,
Speaker 1: right now, it's like that's true, the bullying part is fun.
Speaker 1: Um just kind of in keeping with the idea of
Speaker 1: moving forward from the end of the Trump administration. Uh,
Speaker 1: there's so January was the worst month in the history
Speaker 1: of coronavirus in terms of deaths, new cases, hospitalizations. We
Speaker 1: are starting to see at the end of the month
Speaker 1: and beginning a February sharp drop in new cases. And
Speaker 1: this epidemiologist, you know, it was like, yeah, the vaccine
Speaker 1: is like partially responsible, but only like for a very
Speaker 1: small part of that because it's not to the point
Speaker 1: where it's like creating herd immunity yet. And uh he
Speaker 1: was saying that he thinks that actually has something to
Speaker 1: do with the political climate. Um, and that like people,
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's certainly easier said them proved. Uh,
Speaker 1: but it just feels like Trump simply not being there
Speaker 1: on social media with the amount of disinformation. Uh well,
Speaker 1: I mean people said, like statistically disinformation dramatically dropped the
Speaker 1: week after his Twitter account was banned. Um, it's kind
Speaker 1: of it's again like one of those things where the
Speaker 1: second they did the right thing completely belatedly, it became clear,
Speaker 1: like how obvious this decision should have been. Um, Like,
Speaker 1: it does seem like Twitter Jack and uh sucker nerd
Speaker 1: uh need to be like yeah, I have to say yeah, sorry, bro,
Speaker 1: but that's what I'm calling you. Uh. It's like Neville
Speaker 1: Chamberlain type ship with like their insistence on not removing
Speaker 1: the president. Like as we get distance from it and
Speaker 1: we see like how damaging it was for him to
Speaker 1: have just a direct wire into people's brands. Um, and
Speaker 1: you know the fact that they banned him from Twitter
Speaker 1: three days after the GOP lost control of the sentence.
Speaker 1: It's like that it couldn't be more transparent that they
Speaker 1: were just like whatever you say, sir, yes sir, yes sir,
Speaker 1: But I have another Yeah that was and and now
Speaker 1: it's it's like it is nice to see that disinformation
Speaker 1: is dropping, but now it's just like just there. It's
Speaker 1: like the the infection is just like in there now,
Speaker 1: so it's like you can't like, oh well, we put
Speaker 1: some neo sport on it, so it's done. It's like no, now,
Speaker 1: it's like you're gone gang green, Like you gotta cut
Speaker 1: this ship out, like you got to cut out the
Speaker 1: rotten tissue, like you spent four years of unchecked just
Speaker 1: like lies in propaganda and like conspiracy theories. And now
Speaker 1: you have acting senators that believe in q a On
Speaker 1: trying to come strapped into the Senate. You're like, well,
Speaker 1: we banned him from Twitter. You're like, well, yeah, but
Speaker 1: it doesn't do anything now because they're already here right
Speaker 1: right right, and they're looking for something to do with
Speaker 1: their time. All of a sudden, there's all these conspiracy
Speaker 1: theories with a new wealth of free time. Uh makes
Speaker 1: me nervous, Yeah, absolutely, Although I do think some of
Speaker 1: them took up trying to cut to the front of
Speaker 1: the line of the vaccine, like in place of their
Speaker 1: conspiracy theorizing that the vaccine was micro chipped, they were like,
Speaker 1: all right, well, now we're gonna find a way to
Speaker 1: just get in line and get a vaccine. Very chill,
Speaker 1: very chill approach. Um. So I just wanted to talk
Speaker 1: about two sporting events, Uh, the Australia Open. Yes, UH
Speaker 1: couples since we had a couple of sport ohs on
Speaker 1: uh classic sports hads. So the Australian Open is coming up,
Speaker 1: one of the four tennis majors. Um. I think it's
Speaker 1: happening this week this weekend, and I think it's just
Speaker 1: gonna be like pretty much fully opened, uh with yeah,
Speaker 1: like fans in stadium. I saw like footage on Sports
Speaker 1: Center where they were like, yeah, nobody's wearing masks and
Speaker 1: it's just it looks like it's again. Um. And it's
Speaker 1: because they underwent like they haven't had a new COVID
Speaker 1: death since October and all of Australia. If Australia can
Speaker 1: get their ship together, what are we doing good for Australia.
Speaker 1: First of all, shout out to Australia. Good good for Australia.
Speaker 1: But I am better about it. They just did a
Speaker 1: short term full lockdown and UH said they it was
Speaker 1: called like a zero or bust campaign and it worked
Speaker 1: and they were like, we're going to uh put our
Speaker 1: long term health and survival as a society ahead of
Speaker 1: short term considerations and that so. Uh. The other side
Speaker 1: of this coin is a super Bowl which is happening
Speaker 1: this weekend in Tampa, and I think it's a good
Speaker 1: illustration of how uh these sorts of things happen in America. Uh.
Speaker 1: The mayor of Tampa has been like fighting with Ron
Speaker 1: de Santas for you know, the past year, trying to
Speaker 1: like she tried to get bars to shut down back
Speaker 1: when he was opening all the bars up. Uh and
Speaker 1: like wanting to get funds to pay the bars to
Speaker 1: shut down so that they could like stay in business
Speaker 1: without opening up. Uh. She did not succeed in that. Uh.
Speaker 1: Now she is hosting US capitalisms like Olympics. Uh she's
Speaker 1: saying and she saying ship like we are climbing up
Speaker 1: on the world stage. And one thing I can guarantee
Speaker 1: you is Tampa Bay is going to dance like we've
Speaker 1: never danced before. Um. God, it's yeah, it's just like
Speaker 1: out of sort of capitalist necessity. She like has no
Speaker 1: reason to be confident. Um, but she's yeah, she so
Speaker 1: like the measures that she took instead of actually like
Speaker 1: paying people to stay home, keeping things closed, asking people
Speaker 1: to sacrifice on the short term for long term Gain
Speaker 1: was a social media campaign using local celebrities to spread
Speaker 1: spread awareness around mask wearing. Um basically nothing that's going
Speaker 1: to cost money. We tried that. Yeah, remember when Kate
Speaker 1: Winslet taught us how to wash our hands last March?
Speaker 1: Right fucking good? Did that do nothing to change my life?
Speaker 1: But not for that, I wonder what's happening in like
Speaker 1: Earth seventy seven, like the parallel Earth, where like America
Speaker 1: is about collectivism and not individualism, and like we decided
Speaker 1: to you know, bite the bullet and treat people like
Speaker 1: people for like just a year, we just locked down
Speaker 1: everyone livable wage. And he's just like, hey, you know,
Speaker 1: we're gonna ride this thing out as opposed to hear
Speaker 1: where we're just like everyone gets cheese had at the
Speaker 1: beer party. Come on down to what is happening? What? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean she called bars a perfect Petrie dish for
Speaker 1: spreading the virus back in the spring, and now the
Speaker 1: virus is at its highest levels to date and she's
Speaker 1: hosting a just the most massive event with like thousands
Speaker 1: of people just getting drunk together, like turning her city
Speaker 1: into a bar. Uh. And she's like, I'm glad we've
Speaker 1: decided to hold the events outdoors, so that that's something, um,
Speaker 1: a little treat. Yeah, but well that's very bleak. And
Speaker 1: I don't have cable, so I'm not gonna be able
Speaker 1: to watch the big game. What I can't watch the
Speaker 1: Big Game? I don't know. I'm called rewatch the air
Speaker 1: in Hernandez documentary for the four thousand times, just live
Speaker 1: tweeting there. That'll put me in a good Yeah. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna like really bruin every keep in mind. Um yeah,
Speaker 1: so I'll just I'll just really delight in bringing others
Speaker 1: a little serotonin down. I'm about to expose myself right now.
Speaker 1: When is the Super Bowl? Is it? Is it? This
Speaker 1: is this week? Great time? Is this week? Oh wow,
Speaker 1: I'm really behind who's playing? Uh? Funny you should mention
Speaker 1: Aaron Hernandez because his uh former quarterback Tom Brady and
Speaker 1: his former tight end mate, uh Rob Gronkowski are both
Speaker 1: playing for Tampa Bay this time. I forgot that Rob
Speaker 1: Gronkowski caught. You couldn't escape Rob Gronkowski. They used to
Speaker 1: have a cardboard cut out of Rob Gronkowski in every
Speaker 1: Duncan Donuts in Massachusetts. You couldn't get away from that. Man,
Speaker 1: I'm glad he's gone brand. It was really I kind
Speaker 1: of was like, where did all those Where did all
Speaker 1: those Rob Gronkowski? Yeah, let's see, I'll check, I'll check eBay. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's been. It's a bummer for Patriots fans because they
Speaker 1: were they just got left, They got dumped for Tampa.
Speaker 1: You know, I think that all of my uncles will
Speaker 1: be just fine. But once you've seen Tampa dance like
Speaker 1: they've never danced before, it's hard to go back to
Speaker 1: cold ask New England, you know. So. Uh, let's talk
Speaker 1: about Andrew Cuomo, pandemic hero Andrew Cuomo, who recently won
Speaker 1: a special Emmy Award for his televised press conferences where
Speaker 1: he is like literally did his job that how he
Speaker 1: handled the coronavirus pandemic, which like must have been locked
Speaker 1: like six months ago, like at the height yah um.
Speaker 1: He is now reopening indoor dining in New York City
Speaker 1: at capacity um, which get those on your rings? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I gotta get those. Uh. It's still considered a high
Speaker 1: risk activity. One expert called dyning restaurants super spreader destinations.
Speaker 1: There was that South Korean study from the end of
Speaker 1: last year where you saw how one customer was able
Speaker 1: to infect another sitting away was the one with like
Speaker 1: literal they had like someone sitting at this part of
Speaker 1: the restaurant, and then the person was away in the
Speaker 1: air flow. Yeah, from the spread it around. Yeah, god,
Speaker 1: I forgot about that cursed chart. I like, can we
Speaker 1: I feel like we should stop encouraging governors, Like if
Speaker 1: you tell them that, if you tell them they did
Speaker 1: a good job one time, they'll immediately start to do
Speaker 1: the worst job possible and they don't care how many
Speaker 1: people die like them. Yeah, oh god, I love to
Speaker 1: bully a governor, but like it's just like every mayor
Speaker 1: and every governor, like they'll take the clickbait and then
Speaker 1: they're like, okay, cool, like no one's looking. Let's let's
Speaker 1: absolutely funk this up as much as possible. We got
Speaker 1: the emmy who cares. Yeah, this his post governorship has
Speaker 1: like I'm seeing very rudy Giuliani vibes for him, like
Speaker 1: just living off of this and then eventually devolving into, uh,
Speaker 1: just a mess because when you so they're reopening restaurants
Speaker 1: for Valentine's Day because he knows that's the best day
Speaker 1: to go to restaur I'm seeing that nine as of
Speaker 1: like twenty minutes ago, nine top New York health officials
Speaker 1: quit because of Cuomo. Um. Maybe maybe they didn't hear
Speaker 1: that he's also opening wedding ceremonies up to maybe they
Speaker 1: were like, you should have opened them sooner. Yeah, um.
Speaker 1: And he at his press conference announcing this, uh, he
Speaker 1: encouraged everybody to go have dinner at a restaurant Valentine's
Speaker 1: Day and then get engaged while you're at it. Hell yeah,
Speaker 1: just kind of a fun thing. Enjoy the few weeks
Speaker 1: you have left. I mean yeah. People naturally asked that
Speaker 1: this press conference, they were like, so when will food
Speaker 1: service workers be available? Like when when are they getting vaccinated? Uh?
Speaker 1: And Cuomo called the question of weather restaurant employees should
Speaker 1: be prioritized quote a cheap, insincere discussion, um, which suns
Speaker 1: that yeah, really just the worst Okay, where's Yeah that's
Speaker 1: a that's a real guillotine moment. Yeah really, Jesus, I
Speaker 1: mean it's like bad enough here having all the restaurants
Speaker 1: open again, you know, they open up Friday and all,
Speaker 1: like the sidewalks are truly like brimming with people eager
Speaker 1: to uh infect waiters. So it isn't like cold in
Speaker 1: l A right now, Like I haven't been there, but
Speaker 1: hasn't like it ben sort of like hitty weather, Like
Speaker 1: who wants to go eat outside in the rain anyway.
Speaker 1: I just don't understand how you could be frothing this
Speaker 1: bad to pay too much for a piece of bread,
Speaker 1: Like it's just yeah, it's not even nice out yeah
Speaker 1: all the like, it really put the light of all
Speaker 1: the people who are like it's freezing when it's fifty,
Speaker 1: but then you let them eat at a fucking uh
Speaker 1: sidewalk cafe and they're all out there right away. It's yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: so uh not great. Um uh, let's take a quick
Speaker 1: break and we'll be right back. And we're back. So
Speaker 1: CNN reported on this story out of the Minneapolis p D.
Speaker 1: Like the title suggested, I'll just read you, guys the title.
Speaker 1: The title is Minneapolis police officers must keep body cameras
Speaker 1: turned on during entire response to a call. New policy says,
Speaker 1: But if you actually look at the policy or even
Speaker 1: the text of that article, it's actually like the officers
Speaker 1: still have the ability to turn on and off their
Speaker 1: cameras like themselves. Uh, just they get to decide that
Speaker 1: any thing they say on camera can be redacted from
Speaker 1: public release. Uh. And the policy doesn't mention the punishment
Speaker 1: for turning their camera off. Oh yeah, so it's just
Speaker 1: more of the same ineffectual bullshit that won't cause a
Speaker 1: single officer who's interested in abusing his power to change
Speaker 1: behavior at all. Um. But this is in classic CNN
Speaker 1: for rewarding it for no reason, just giving them a
Speaker 1: great headline. See they're trying. Yeah, an effort was made.
Speaker 1: So oh god, I hate it here. Um, well, I've
Speaker 1: got something that's gonna make you feel better. Uh. We
Speaker 1: we got to meet the game Stop guy who made
Speaker 1: millions off of that stock. He's ugly, he's Oh my god,
Speaker 1: I'm just like this looks like this is how I
Speaker 1: picture how people look when they email me death threats.
Speaker 1: They look like this guy. You know, he looks like
Speaker 1: a sketch character. Absolutely looks like a sketch character because
Speaker 1: wearing a T shirt that says game over, with a
Speaker 1: color coordinated headband uh and wrists sweat bands uh and microphone. Yeah.
Speaker 1: There's another article where the narrative seems to be, you know,
Speaker 1: moving back towards the side of capital and basically a
Speaker 1: side of money. Um, there's a Bloomberg article where the
Speaker 1: moral of the story is this was all just a
Speaker 1: silly online fed that hurt a bunch of the small people. Uh,
Speaker 1: and does not mention like the fact that the people
Speaker 1: were trying to use the market against companies who make
Speaker 1: a living fucking them over, and the companies literally changed
Speaker 1: the rules like midstream to fund them over again. But
Speaker 1: like it's yeah, it's just a real to remembered staying
Speaker 1: your place, guys, because it's dangerous out there. This is
Speaker 1: a real like a bizarrow Sophie's choice, because the only
Speaker 1: thing I hate more than redditors are capitalists stock brokers.
Speaker 1: So it's really it's really because I would like I
Speaker 1: I went into that subret just to see what's going on,
Speaker 1: and like it was as ready as you thought, as
Speaker 1: you possibly think. It could be like a lot of
Speaker 1: like ship post, a lot of like people just throwing
Speaker 1: around the R word just for whatever ships and giggles,
Speaker 1: And I'm like, do I really care that these people
Speaker 1: were making becoming millionaires? And I mean, on the one hand,
Speaker 1: they are fucking over hedge fund managers, which I love,
Speaker 1: but also like I really need more shitty white dudes
Speaker 1: getting amassing capital, like do I carry either way? That's
Speaker 1: like the best contact outs. And it was like that
Speaker 1: that that meme of like the two monkeys fighting on
Speaker 1: the ship from the Symptoms and mont people around it
Speaker 1: cheering on, Like that's the way that that's is like
Speaker 1: reddit dudes fighting hedge fund manders, Like I'll watched them
Speaker 1: fight all day. I don't support either one, but like,
Speaker 1: I'll watch them fight. It'll be interesting to see how
Speaker 1: it ends. It's like, yeah, I don't know that that.
Speaker 1: I didn't engage with that story very much because I
Speaker 1: was like, there, I don't know, the redditors are triggering
Speaker 1: for me. I don't want to. I don't want to.
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear what reddators are up to.
Speaker 1: I certainly don't want them to have a bunch of money. Uh,
Speaker 1: But also like you gotta like, I don't know, dunking
Speaker 1: on Wall Street is good, but reallocating Wall Street money
Speaker 1: to redditors seems like the like the not ideal outcome.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, and I feel like a lot
Speaker 1: of the people who made the money or like part
Speaker 1: of that Internet like gotta get your hustle on, gotta
Speaker 1: grind it. Dude, this is how this is good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: agreed is good. I'm just hustling out here making making
Speaker 1: my mills. Uh type of culture that is a real bummer. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is a really uh the funny take on Wolf
Speaker 1: of Wall Street. Aren't they already like making a movie
Speaker 1: out of it? Yeah, Noah Sentendeo. I guess, I guess.
Speaker 1: Noah Sentennaio looks like he could be a riditor. Why
Speaker 1: is any of this happening? This? And he's been to
Speaker 1: Brockton I just can't It's just been there. He's just
Speaker 1: been there. Yeah, he's just polluted the air. No Ah Sentenaio.
Speaker 1: I need to know who he is, right, seem increasingly
Speaker 1: I would, I would argue in and I don't know
Speaker 1: he's He's at a tipic point where either he's supremely
Speaker 1: untalented and no one will know who he is in
Speaker 1: twenty minutes, or he is secretly like or he's like
Speaker 1: another Robert Pattinson where you're like, oh, I guess he
Speaker 1: was good. But he's he's in that Kissing Booth movie, right, right,
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure. Yeah, yeah he's in Wait, No he's not.
Speaker 1: I have no idea who this man is. He looks
Speaker 1: like he's he. Oh, I have no idea who this
Speaker 1: man is. He looks like the guy from Kissing Booth.
Speaker 1: He's not, he's not, he's not. He looks exactly like
Speaker 1: the Australian guy from Kissing Booth, but he's actually American
Speaker 1: and he's in Oh, he's to all the boys I've
Speaker 1: loved before. He's like some Netflix movie guy. And either
Speaker 1: he's good or he sucks. That's all you need to know. Okay, perfect, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he is bringing the Game Stock, the Game Stop Stock
Speaker 1: Saga to Netflix, according to International The News. Um, well,
Speaker 1: that's exhausting. But like, my brain is melting when I
Speaker 1: say that sentence. I was so sure he was that
Speaker 1: guy that looks like a true Yeah, let's not bring
Speaker 1: Noah Sentenao into it. God, I can't imagine what that
Speaker 1: movie is gonna be. Yeah, because it's not even over yet,
Speaker 1: like it's still happens, still happening, Like what I guess.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna wing it and maybe figure it out.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It is interesting, and they're just like
Speaker 1: finding replacing the big short script. They're like it'll work out, right, Um, alright,
Speaker 1: let's finally dig into some wholesomeness. Uh, that's still has
