Speaker 1: hilarious actor improviser who writes on TV shows like Grand Crew,
Speaker 1: video games, TV shows about video games. Please welcome thought
Speaker 1: Dead trademarks. If he want away, yes, yes he k
Speaker 1: if he should coo every time I check my bank account.
Speaker 1: If he should coo, you wouldn't even believe my bank amount.
Speaker 1: If he should count up the whole goddamn amount. I've
Speaker 1: made it, and sometimes I forget that I'm famous, just
Speaker 1: like I'm amous. Turn around, it's the worst little first
Speaker 1: two He ruined a baby cheam song. But beside that,
Speaker 1: beside that bar, it's it's actually the worst, just bar
Speaker 1: the verse itself. Okay that bar. He made a famous
Speaker 1: amous reference in the year of our Lord h but yes,
Speaker 1: I'm here. Dad in me sees you're like to pack
Speaker 1: my kids lunch. You're right, You're like, I'm for school.
Speaker 1: You're like, hold on, let me put on. I just
Speaker 1: want to rock by Little Usie for you ready for
Speaker 1: this one boo that that song goes being as good
Speaker 1: as it is, but it is. I have a question
Speaker 1: for your dad's out here, is it? How often are
Speaker 1: you like when when you're trying to like rock a baby,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Are you do you ever
Speaker 1: just wrap a verse? Like? Because I feel like people
Speaker 1: have baby appropriate songs, but I have so many rap
Speaker 1: verses memorized that I feel like a summit. I could be, like,
Speaker 1: you know, I could just lean into it, you know,
Speaker 1: like it's my baby. I rock a fly baby in
Speaker 1: the summertime for sure. Okay. Yeah, And and you look,
Speaker 1: they're they're so young, they're not even gonna remember all
Speaker 1: the words you're using, so you can just go full
Speaker 1: explicit on that rock in the first few years, pretend
Speaker 1: I know the whole rap god verse by eminem You know,
Speaker 1: I was spitting that ship perfect when you were a baby.
Speaker 1: You just don't remember it because you watch. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: it's definitely, like more of my brain is Dr Seuss
Speaker 1: Ship now, Like I just realized actually, like we were
Speaker 1: waiting in the line somewhere and we started doing I
Speaker 1: don't know, like some silly you know ship, and I
Speaker 1: realized I know all of doctors who's ABC's like by
Speaker 1: heart you can just like spit that back, which is
Speaker 1: not like that hard. You already know what order it
Speaker 1: comes in because of because it's but yeah, there's a
Speaker 1: lot of rhymes that started taking up space that used
Speaker 1: to be occupied by ghost Face. I think, yeah, Italian
Speaker 1: Italian music down the river with your chick clinging like
Speaker 1: like that's that's gone now to all that's right, Iffy,
Speaker 1: how are you doing? Man, it's been way too long,
Speaker 1: But yeah, I know it's been way too long. It's
Speaker 1: you know, I've been trying to squeeze in here between gigs.
Speaker 1: But like it really was a quick runner last year
Speaker 1: because I was doing Twisted Metal at the top of
Speaker 1: the year and then right after Twisted Metal is back
Speaker 1: in Grand Crew. But now, um, you know, I'm chilling.
Speaker 1: Um you know, you know you're developing some stuff, you know,
Speaker 1: inside baseball. But you know, now I have free time.
Speaker 1: I've been dying to come on the pods, and it's
Speaker 1: now is the perfect time because I think if I
Speaker 1: would have went in when I was like right after
Speaker 1: the room, when I was just like you know, like
Speaker 1: neck deep in writing a TV show and not coming
Speaker 1: up for air. But now you know, I'm back on
Speaker 1: my gym routine and part of my gym routine, which
Speaker 1: you know this if you don't know this already, uh
Speaker 1: you know zeit gang. If you are on Spotify, you
Speaker 1: can do the Daily Drive. That's that's my ship. And
Speaker 1: what they do when you do the Daily Drive is
Speaker 1: they mix in the NPR kind of like Daily up
Speaker 1: first and then it goes into your your music playlist
Speaker 1: and then they'll pick like a you know podcast that's
Speaker 1: your vibe. I think they figured out that I'm a leftist,
Speaker 1: so then it goes to marketplace. Then it'll place more playlists,
Speaker 1: and then if you come back in the day, you'll
Speaker 1: get the updates with nprs kind of up next updates,
Speaker 1: which is great. So why are you trying to hold on? Man?
Speaker 1: I just told you I was having a kid. You're
Speaker 1: trying to take money out of his mouth? Okay right there?
Speaker 1: Because you know we have a morning show too, and
Speaker 1: then we will update you later in the day. I
Speaker 1: also give music recommendations, but yes, uhout, oh yeah yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: that other I know I kind of show. But you
Speaker 1: know that, uh because when I was in my deep
Speaker 1: pod one, I was I was double dipping, uh you know,
Speaker 1: listening to y'all listening to this. And but also I
Speaker 1: do think Spotify doesn't need to get the t d
Speaker 1: Z because y'all would fit the vibe more because it
Speaker 1: is funny having to go from NPRS, you know tone
Speaker 1: to like baby Kam and I'm like, this would never
Speaker 1: be on KPCC or whatever you're listening like, they are
Speaker 1: never gonna be like, okay, the needle drop after Ira Glass,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be the like kind of do it sometimes,
Speaker 1: and it's it's embarrassing. It is jarring, whereas like if
Speaker 1: the needle Drop came off off of us, you'd be like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that makes sense. I mean we we go out on
Speaker 1: some bangers. So um yeah, if you work in Spotify,
Speaker 1: definitely let them know to get t d Z in
Speaker 1: that data. Let them know. But that's that's my new
Speaker 1: kind to make up for what I just did. I'm
Speaker 1: definitely gonna see what I can do to pull some strings. Man.
Speaker 1: Also Grand crewel is dope. I gotta tell you thank
Speaker 1: you so I can confident we say this next season
Speaker 1: is gonna be funnier, you know, And I think you
Speaker 1: know if you if you're like I feel like when
Speaker 1: you're in the city and you're tapped in, everyone kind
Speaker 1: of knows. That first season is kind of more establishing
Speaker 1: everyone's relationships and know, and the second season we're able
Speaker 1: to just go, like, what's the funniest ship we can
Speaker 1: I feel like you guys were able to get to
Speaker 1: that pretty quickly though, like oh no, after like the
Speaker 1: first few if the show really fucking cottage stride And
Speaker 1: I still love that Pipe Jerry or Jerry pipe joke.
Speaker 1: I don't know who wrote that one, but yeah that
Speaker 1: was I forget who did that, But what I do
Speaker 1: remember is I was trying so hard to be pipe
Speaker 1: Jerry I was. I was like, and then when they
Speaker 1: when we saw pipe Jerry, I was like, no, y'all
Speaker 1: got the right one, because boys buff, but that guy
Speaker 1: was shredded. That was Jerry was Wait, tell the pipe
Speaker 1: Jerry joke? What is it? Oh? So Nikki and her
Speaker 1: phone has uh, pipe, Jerry and Jerry pipe. One is
Speaker 1: a handyman, one is a stripper, and she calls the
Speaker 1: stripper up when she wanted the handyman, but he comes
Speaker 1: in as a handyman him and he just starts getting it.
Speaker 1: And I just loved Jerry Pipe and pipe. It was
Speaker 1: to find balance. Yes, what is something from your search history? Recently?
Speaker 1: I was searching sandwiches near me m M, which I
Speaker 1: thought was like a kind of a funny but pathetic
Speaker 1: little thing to search just near me. It, don't you know,
Speaker 1: it's like, what's just near around me an arm's length?
Speaker 1: You kind of yeah, that's like you're like you're basically
Speaker 1: just typing into your phone. I'm hungry sandwiches within earshot.
Speaker 1: You know, I can yell sandwiches and someone I wanted
Speaker 1: a sandwich, I would, you know. I did a couple
Speaker 1: of day trip type things that we've had some family
Speaker 1: visiting over the holidays, and that some of those days
Speaker 1: really feel like, Okay, now you gotta have a sandwich
Speaker 1: after a day trip, and so I needed one in
Speaker 1: the entity. Well, we just ate at we were at
Speaker 1: the Botanical Garden, Huntington's Botanical Beautiful Botanical garden, and we
Speaker 1: just ate at the cafe there because it was too
Speaker 1: hard to get to another sandwich, but I I was
Speaker 1: thinking of something. I didn't get them, but I'll eventually
Speaker 1: get there, do you ever. It's funny when you say
Speaker 1: sand like sandwich near me, because you know, like Google
Speaker 1: always auto fill stuff for you to be like near,
Speaker 1: like I need a physical fair like orthopedic blah blah
Speaker 1: near me. You want to you want it really far
Speaker 1: away part of me, Like I'm like some weird like
Speaker 1: early search snob where I'm like, that's not how you're
Speaker 1: gonna fucking figure out where it is. You know that
Speaker 1: you don't need to give it specific but obviously it's
Speaker 1: optimized to use your location. Just figure that on your own.
Speaker 1: But it's for whatever reason, whenever seen near me, I'll
Speaker 1: never do that. I'll fully type in the city. Well,
Speaker 1: I was desperate for a sandwich, That's why I allowed
Speaker 1: the auto complete, So I was like, you're right, I
Speaker 1: need it close. It needs to be here now. Food
Speaker 1: there not that great, not that great, No, it was
Speaker 1: garden was immaculate. Who doesn't love a Japanese garden? Actually
Speaker 1: like the I'm semi joking, but it is the most
Speaker 1: packed place. And you are like, this rules, this is
Speaker 1: tranquil as hell. Yeah, it's wild. How diverse, like all
Speaker 1: of the flora and fauna and stuff like, we're like, okay,
Speaker 1: now we're in Asia. Now you're down in the in
Speaker 1: the like succulent desert area. Are you a dad already
Speaker 1: or this is first thing you're talking. You're talking dad
Speaker 1: talk dads. I'm a dad, and let let me tell you.
Speaker 1: I love me some flora, because oh my god, it
Speaker 1: gets nuts, but dads love different types of things. Growing.
Speaker 1: I have my father in law here and he has
Speaker 1: pointed out many a tree and I'm like, and I'm interested,
Speaker 1: Like you're the choir man. We'll go on a boat
Speaker 1: cruise around the bay, check out the flotsam and jetsam.
Speaker 1: You know that would be really nice. Yeah, that's that's
Speaker 1: what I mean to now, not so much jetsam actually
Speaker 1: does my flotsam game is Sam or jet Sam plots Now,
Speaker 1: Myles is definitely do for that ship. He's I have
Speaker 1: unending useless knowledge to bore my child with and then
Speaker 1: that's what they need exactly. And then they'll they'll regurgitate
Speaker 1: that at school and they're be like, what are you
Speaker 1: what's going on at home? You know, like my son
Speaker 1: already does that. My son talked about Costco a lot. No, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh no, but oh yes, yeah. Mikey will
Speaker 1: talk about like Taco Bell, like how to get a Meximelt,
Speaker 1: the cars roll State and Ronald Reagan is why we
Speaker 1: have unhoused people. Where's the cheesy Ordia crunch Uh? Last
Speaker 1: time I went there, they didn't have the Cheesy Ordia
Speaker 1: crunch meal anymore. They have to they may they may
Speaker 1: have your olive carte that thing. Man, your listeners are
Speaker 1: just eating this up. They're like wow, no no because
Speaker 1: they knew my love with the meximunt And somebody who's
Speaker 1: to work at a Taco Bell is like, this is
Speaker 1: how you can order it still, this is how you
Speaker 1: And I was like, thank you so much, dear sir,
Speaker 1: coming here's the cheat code, because as I think about
Speaker 1: it too, you're maybe shortening my life as I become
Speaker 1: a parent if I keep up with the Taco Bell hacks.
Speaker 1: So you know, but that's okay too, because you're gonna
Speaker 1: want to get out at some point. So it's like
Speaker 1: if I'm going down Taco Bell and like a man. Yeah,
Speaker 1: with taco bells, son heart attack, your way out of there.
Speaker 1: What is something you think is overrated? Staying up late? Yes,
Speaker 1: spoken like a true fo. Yeah this is this has
Speaker 1: become such check out, you said, And I gave it
Speaker 1: in volunteering. Yes, and I will I will say also
Speaker 1: even more sadly that I've always kind of felt that way,
Speaker 1: even in my high school days. I was sort of
Speaker 1: known for like kind of cutting it off at a round.
Speaker 1: Midnight was like my cut off in high school. Yeah. Wow,
Speaker 1: I was like, there's nothing's gonna happen anymore. It's over Wait,
Speaker 1: what do you mean nothing? Officer said, nothing good happens
Speaker 1: after midnight. So I feel that for different reasons. I
Speaker 1: would say my my counterpoint to the DARE officer, I'd
Speaker 1: be like, no, do your drugs earlier and then you
Speaker 1: could still get a good night sleep. Don't be, don't be,
Speaker 1: don't run with the sun exactly. You don't with the sun. No,
Speaker 1: you don't want to wake up refreshed, and you're like,
Speaker 1: I had a great, insane night last night on tons
Speaker 1: of drugs. What is when something you think is overrated? Wow?
Speaker 1: This goes right kind of into what you guys were
Speaker 1: just saying. I feel that everyone else in there goddamn
Speaker 1: opinions are overrated. First of all, I personally overrate them.
Speaker 1: But being someone who has a podcast occasionally I hear
Speaker 1: frequently I hear people's opinions about everything about me and
Speaker 1: my show, and oh, the way you pronounce that word
Speaker 1: bothers me. The way you say this bothers me. Um,
Speaker 1: And because I do overrate it, then I have to
Speaker 1: be like, fine, I guess I'll just change the way
Speaker 1: I do everything to appease you. So I just feel
Speaker 1: like in general, people with all their opinions, if they
Speaker 1: happen to have to do with me and are negative
Speaker 1: and make me feel bad, no, thank you. Just you know,
Speaker 1: they always say, you know, living on the words of
Speaker 1: others is a double edged sword, you know, because the
Speaker 1: compliments can like power you up, but if if you
Speaker 1: really lean on that, the criticism will just cut you
Speaker 1: in half too. And I think it's about for me personally,
Speaker 1: Like throughout my life I've tried to get away from
Speaker 1: that because I'm such a people pleaser that I really
Speaker 1: do care a lot about what people think, and it's
Speaker 1: more about centering yourself and everything you do, and realizing
Speaker 1: that the most true a living experience you can have
Speaker 1: is to honor what who you are sincerely and really
Speaker 1: understand that outside commentary can allow those words to like
Speaker 1: penetrate into your soul, because then you're completely doing yourself
Speaker 1: a disservice and not treating yourself with the sanctity that
Speaker 1: you deserve. That is beautiful and and I actually that's
Speaker 1: sort of I go back and forth a lot, like
Speaker 1: that's something that for the most like, I I have
Speaker 1: that realization, maybe not as eloquently as you put it,
Speaker 1: but I have that realization frequently, and then all of
Speaker 1: a sudden I will find that, like, oh this these
Speaker 1: comments bothered me. That's weird. I thought I was a
Speaker 1: little more armored. Um. All that being said, allow me
Speaker 1: to say I'm being somewhat facetious, Like, for the most part,
Speaker 1: I love that people listen and have an opinion, and
Speaker 1: of course I want to hear feedback and all of
Speaker 1: that stuff. I'm just saying occasionally, I'm like, not today
Speaker 1: people occasionally they should consider shutting the funk up everyone, Kilda.
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you know, it's
Speaker 1: like that you have no responsibility to be like, oh
Speaker 1: I heard that. Yeah, whatever the funk you want, I'm
Speaker 1: not the same, you know, out of here. I'm just
Speaker 1: look live your ship from the inside and let that
Speaker 1: resonate outside. Don't let the ship don't don't do that
Speaker 1: ship in reverse. Don't let the outside ship affect your
Speaker 1: internal state. You know what I mean? That's so good.
Speaker 1: I recently, Oh, I think it was. I think it
Speaker 1: was Harry noted. Ginger was saying that the the Royal
Speaker 1: Families policy is like, never complain, never explain, and I
Speaker 1: was thinking, that's the opposite of my policy. I'm constantly
Speaker 1: I'm the most over explaining person in the whole world, right,
Speaker 1: and I'll complain too. Yeah. Yeah, it's healthier. Yeah, because
Speaker 1: the other side of it, you end up writing a
Speaker 1: book or you just like air out every weird thing
Speaker 1: that's happened you in your life and you're like, okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: I do want to read it though, Yeah, I know,
Speaker 1: and it right now. She got living getting updates from
Speaker 1: Ado in real times, like Prince Charles wears de your
Speaker 1: sausage and we're like, do your sauce age? And it
Speaker 1: was aug And when I responded her and he said,
Speaker 1: I was over here searching do your sausage? But do
Speaker 1: your savages? So it's so perfect, but as I was
Speaker 1: trying to type savage, it auto corrected two sausage like
Speaker 1: for like I couldn't get it too. It was like, like, no,
Speaker 1: you mean do your sausage, my friend, that's amazing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: do your sausage. What were you envisioning like some kind
Speaker 1: of high end sausage that he put on his has sausage?
Speaker 1: So I was like, I thought this was something yeah,
Speaker 1: but I was I didn't meening sausage that he put
Speaker 1: on his body. I'm sorry. When I read that text,
Speaker 1: it sucked me up so bad because like, how do
Speaker 1: I not know? What do you got to do? A
Speaker 1: car crash? I listened. I listened to so much wrap
Speaker 1: and like luxury brands are named you kind of buy
Speaker 1: osmosis are kind of up on ship, like the do
Speaker 1: you or sausage? Like is that a food or is
Speaker 1: that like a piece of jewelry that he keeps on it?
Speaker 1: Got that dor sausage, But what is do your savage?
Speaker 1: Is that a line of something that it is the
Speaker 1: color offensive Johnny Depth cologne. It's door cologne that they
Speaker 1: have where like Johnny Depp is in the ads playing
Speaker 1: electric guitar around like indigenous people's like in the desert
Speaker 1: and just very so many scarves, like he's just being
Speaker 1: swallowed by scarves and he's just out there in the
Speaker 1: desert with the moon and wolves and indigenous people and
Speaker 1: heavy handed nonsense. It's it's like a thing that they
Speaker 1: They doubled down on him being the spokesperson for the
Speaker 1: product as he was on trial. Yeah, anyways, shout out
Speaker 1: the sausage though. Yeah, but the sausage has a great snake.
Speaker 1: What is something you think is underrated? I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: real basic organizing bins U. I'm moved to my boyfriend
Speaker 1: recently and intellect where are Oh thank you? But I've
Speaker 1: been like it's great, But you know, this is probably
Speaker 1: something guys who have been through this will relate to you,
Speaker 1: I think, because I think that it's more common than
Speaker 1: I realized. I moved things around constantly because we're not
Speaker 1: moving together, so I'm like shufflings around. I started getting
Speaker 1: bins to put things that are out like flash pens.
Speaker 1: Now everything's in bins, but it's still like around because
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to so now like his friends will
Speaker 1: come over and be like, ah, I see there's more
Speaker 1: bins around, like just like all the loose items that
Speaker 1: were out and about are now in bins. But I
Speaker 1: love it and I think that it doesn't distract from
Speaker 1: his flow to like do you mind showing me, like
Speaker 1: give me example of something like yeah, and then there's uh,
Speaker 1: well I wish I can't go up now with these
Speaker 1: bright room clear ones. If you target sells them, they're great.
Speaker 1: You can stack them like by our It's not like
Speaker 1: you're filling up like rubber made storage containers. Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: they're in the bathroom. Then to catch it, it's like
Speaker 1: that what is that ludicrous song like in the car
Speaker 1: the oh yeah, in the Bad the movie. Yeah yeah
Speaker 1: yeah yeah. I can't. I can't recommend any more of
Speaker 1: these clear bands because if they stack, you could put
Speaker 1: like coffee pots, tea, chocolate every like, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1: I've never it's funny, so you've pricing this. I feel
Speaker 1: like Asian people will use like tupperware to container storage
Speaker 1: things like I up at all. Yeah. I remember my
Speaker 1: mom like like I'd be like six grades your rooms
Speaker 1: a message like I organized it. We just put all
Speaker 1: my pens like in a tough aware and other ships
Speaker 1: like that. That's like you go to you go to
Speaker 1: like an auntie's house and there's like those Danish cookies.
Speaker 1: Then yeah, it's just like kid. But yeah, I think
Speaker 1: it's just it is funny because I think of that too.
Speaker 1: I have it's just not in my brain to think
Speaker 1: of buying organizational bins or holders or things like that.
Speaker 1: So I think as just how I'm kind of like
Speaker 1: a messy person. People who have been to the I
Speaker 1: Heart office back when it was running, My desk looks
Speaker 1: like some kind of sucking hoarders, like nightmare. But I'm
Speaker 1: going to organize your office for I literally loved it.
Speaker 1: Like it's like, I think a new addiction because it's
Speaker 1: it's fun to organize. Percentage when you're organizing, what percentage
Speaker 1: of the stuff are you throwing away? My high is
Speaker 1: my high? How are you? And what page? Well, So
Speaker 1: like I'm trying not to throw away too much because
Speaker 1: that's the part I think will become annoying. Like literally
Speaker 1: I'm like my bfriend, it's fine, do whatever. So I
Speaker 1: just try to reorganize. But I already moved in, so
Speaker 1: a lot of my stuff is gone, so it really
Speaker 1: is just rearranging, and I think that part I love
Speaker 1: it because sometimes until you move, you don't realize that
Speaker 1: that's what the flow is gonna be. So I've had
Speaker 1: to shuffle where the keys go like maybe four times,
Speaker 1: and that is probably annoying. But you know, my boyfriend's
Speaker 1: saying and he acts like he didn't mind. I hope,
Speaker 1: I hope he still loves me. But are you saying
Speaker 1: that they've also improved the container get like it's no
Speaker 1: longer like the containers that you can get are are
Speaker 1: better than they used to be. Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 1: I think they realized we were using tupperware and repurposing
Speaker 1: like like you know, boxes and ship like I used
Speaker 1: to put my magazine in our old Amazon bucks like
Speaker 1: cut in half, and now it's like you can you know,
Speaker 1: you don't have to spend a lot, you can just
Speaker 1: couple bucks and get these like nice plastic stacking. Or
Speaker 1: my mom should put wrapping paper, like nice wrapping paper
Speaker 1: on other boxes to turn them up. Yeah, my mom
Speaker 1: has this closet up old boxes like literally, I'm like,
Speaker 1: we don't need like stores that are out of business
Speaker 1: like boxes. Far She's like, we don't need this make
Speaker 1: company box anymore. So I feel like the one time
Speaker 1: we made a real run at getting organized, my wife
Speaker 1: and I are both very disorganized people. And yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: oh I thought your wife was like the opposite attracting,
Speaker 1: Like no, no, no, we are like identical attracted in
Speaker 1: that respect. Her majesty looks at me and it's disgusted sometimes.
Speaker 1: Now that's why it's it's truly like we we were
Speaker 1: like should we really get married? This is this is
Speaker 1: gonna be a problem, Like we really love each other,
Speaker 1: but this is gonna be a problem because we are
Speaker 1: identically like identically a D D messy people and we've
Speaker 1: made it work so far, but we've like made multiple
Speaker 1: runs of getting organized to end. Sometimes it like that
Speaker 1: the last time we did it like via a container
Speaker 1: store approach, the stuff just kind of looked like ship
Speaker 1: and ended up kind of all over the place. We
Speaker 1: just had a messy house with containers in there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you gotta go not to because I used to be
Speaker 1: like too ambitious and be like I'm gonna do the
Speaker 1: whole room, and then you start doing it and then
Speaker 1: nothing matches. But the little thing you start small, like
Speaker 1: you you organized the desk, and then you you get
Speaker 1: like you know, and now I have confidence. I could
Speaker 1: do the kitchen, I could do the bathroom, and then
Speaker 1: up pretty soon. It's like the insides are good, so
Speaker 1: you can then the outsides follow, right, yeah, man, such
Speaker 1: as life. So let's take a quick break. We'll be
Speaker 1: right back, and we're back. I got the double thumbs up.
Speaker 1: Like the beginning of Top Gun and Top Gun, Maverick.
Speaker 1: That's how every movie starts, isn't it go? Movie start
Speaker 1: and where go? And alright, so conspiratorial thinking abounds. This
Speaker 1: is your story and gonna let you take it from
Speaker 1: the well I think. I mean, that's that's true. No
Speaker 1: matter who says that sentence, I would say, but yes,
Speaker 1: it is all. I mean. Look last week, right when
Speaker 1: you know, like the anti factors, I think they believe
Speaker 1: they got a gift from like blonde hair Jesus. When
Speaker 1: like NFL player tomar Hamlin collapsed passed away like momentarily
Speaker 1: from a cardiac arrest and was a revived immediately, the
Speaker 1: fucking tweets and post talking about died suddenly just ramped
Speaker 1: up exponentially. There's this group called the Center for Countering
Speaker 1: Digital Hate, and their nonprofit that looks at disinformation and
Speaker 1: things like that. They said that the phrase died suddenly
Speaker 1: had quadrupled that day. Like the daily average is only
Speaker 1: fourth about four thousand mentions, this is doing about seventeen thousand.
Speaker 1: Where people are going on this whole died suddenly. And
Speaker 1: do you guys remember we've talked about this phrase died
Speaker 1: suddenly before because there was that shitty I guess documentary
Speaker 1: that they called it, but it was really just a
Speaker 1: montage clip of people collapsing due to any other reason
Speaker 1: aside from having like a COVID vaccine and actually not dying.
Speaker 1: And people are like, oh man, this is fucking scary. Man,
Speaker 1: look at what the vaccines doing to people. People are
Speaker 1: just dying left and right. Well, this like the further
Speaker 1: around that ship hasn't died down. And this guy specifically
Speaker 1: just recently came back up in the news. You may
Speaker 1: have remembered us talking about him. His name is Christopher Keys.
Speaker 1: He was the guy that was called the vaccine cop
Speaker 1: who wore like a fucking bag and he tried to
Speaker 1: citizens arrest a fucking governor for like approving vaccines for kids.
Speaker 1: And he also remember his last I mean, we really
Speaker 1: talked about him because of his last science breakthrough. Let
Speaker 1: me just let me just remind you really quick what
Speaker 1: he's told a rueful of people what the antidote to
Speaker 1: the COVID vaccine was. You know, take it with a
Speaker 1: grain of stop and go do the research, because this
Speaker 1: is gonna just be like, there's no way but the antidote,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna kill the credibility. But what credibly don't
Speaker 1: have anyway, So okay, um, the antidote that we've seen
Speaker 1: now and we have tons and tons of research, is
Speaker 1: you're in therapy. You're in therapy, okay, And I know
Speaker 1: a lot of you and a lot of people like
Speaker 1: what the fund is this doing. Yes, he's talking about
Speaker 1: drinking your pepe so you can negate the vaccine and
Speaker 1: be free. Well, now this guy's back at it again,
Speaker 1: and he's this So he was on a plane and
Speaker 1: he was asking the pilots if they were vaccinated because
Speaker 1: they could died suddenly due to their vaccination. So this
Speaker 1: is we're gonna play this clip. This is he was
Speaker 1: just like going up to the cogny like, hey, how
Speaker 1: you fellows doing blah blah blah. You guys aren't vaccinated.
Speaker 1: Are you place? This is him walking up to the cockpit.
Speaker 1: We just found out another pallette dropped in. Yes, you
Speaker 1: guys aren't vaccinated, are your hope? Yes, both of you?
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Okay, So he's laughing off. He's like, yeah, okay, yeah, sure,
Speaker 1: thing more on that later. I bet you guys will
Speaker 1: be fine. Then guess what the fucking flight landed because
Speaker 1: no one's dying suddenly as ship. And then this is
Speaker 1: he goes up to the pilots. I guess, just like
Speaker 1: double back on being like, yo, I know I was
Speaker 1: talking about it, like, let me just check in on
Speaker 1: you guys one more time because I don't want to
Speaker 1: take that out. Thank you guys, Thank you give your
Speaker 1: car real quick. Yeah. Please. The documentary we just put
Speaker 1: out called Died telling me about Stop Peters. You said
Speaker 1: you were young, brother, so I said, but again, we've
Speaker 1: had over a thousand athletes dropped dead on the football
Speaker 1: field twenty three years of age. Please go look at it.
Speaker 1: We have a team of over you hear. The pilot
Speaker 1: just goes, that's a lie right back, because it is
Speaker 1: a fucking lie. Yeah, he's just like, just get the
Speaker 1: funk out of I face, dude, that's a thousands of
Speaker 1: people aren't going down. He's likely referencing this like website
Speaker 1: that just has a list of fucking athletes that have died,
Speaker 1: like for any reason. They'll be like sixties six year
Speaker 1: old Rugby legend died and just leaving it at that.
Speaker 1: And I think it's worth mentioning all this because Tucker
Speaker 1: Carlson has made the same claims on his show. And
Speaker 1: we're now looking at a like house of representatives where
Speaker 1: like the planned emic Adrena chrome gang are going to
Speaker 1: be setting a lot of the agendas for what kind
Speaker 1: of legislation they even discussed, or the you know, the
Speaker 1: business a lot of these of a lot of these committees.
Speaker 1: And McCarthy he finally got his speakership, but he basically
Speaker 1: had to give away all his power to these people
Speaker 1: just so he can have a bigger office and hold
Speaker 1: a wooden dildough. And we're going to pay the price
Speaker 1: because of this, because now we have people who are
Speaker 1: if you hear even what he said in his first speech,
Speaker 1: he's talking about things like looking into the origins of
Speaker 1: the pandemic or like looking at like what's going on
Speaker 1: with the c d C all this language is meant
Speaker 1: to begin a ton of quote unquote investigations that are
Speaker 1: just gonna challenge people's sense of like established truth or
Speaker 1: reality going into this is who we are seeding ground two.
Speaker 1: When people are like, he's made some concessions and seeded
Speaker 1: some ground, like, this is who he's ultimately seeding ground
Speaker 1: two is the guy who wants to make his pilots
Speaker 1: let him watch them drink their own p before takeoff,
Speaker 1: to make sure that they're covered. It's it'll only be
Speaker 1: a matter of time until Dr pp is going up
Speaker 1: to do like some kind of testimony in front of
Speaker 1: Congress or whatever about how like he's seeing he's seen
Speaker 1: he's seen it all, folks. But again, this is all
Speaker 1: it's just very dangerous too because when you look even
Speaker 1: how epidemiologists are talking, they're like, man, the way these
Speaker 1: these diseases mutate and we have new variants, like we're
Speaker 1: looking at like a new pathoge in like every six
Speaker 1: years that we have to contend with, whether it's like
Speaker 1: stars or merse or COVID, like they keep coming. And
Speaker 1: so there's no there's no world in which you've got
Speaker 1: to be like, we don't need to look into any
Speaker 1: of this ship anymore, Like it's all bullshit and there
Speaker 1: I don't know how on earth the country can protect
Speaker 1: itself because it did already the terrible job when the
Speaker 1: ship started. When the GOP is basically going to tell
Speaker 1: Americans like, hey, Fox Science, they don't know shit. Really yeah,
Speaker 1: they've like built out the scaffolding already for the next pandemic.
Speaker 1: And now everybody like prior to the pandemic, like people
Speaker 1: I think like that there were there's been a huge
Speaker 1: drop off and like the number of people who actually
Speaker 1: are not skeptical of sucking vaccines just across the board.
Speaker 1: Like that it's done. They've done quite a bit of damage,
Speaker 1: and it's it's very frustrating, Like this is one of
Speaker 1: the most frustrating sort of cognitive biases to deal with,
Speaker 1: like the sampling bias or sampling error, where it's just
Speaker 1: any news story can be used to make the kid
Speaker 1: like it. It didn't make any sense to me, like
Speaker 1: it It hadn't crossed my mind that the NFL story
Speaker 1: would be used in this way to like try and
Speaker 1: bias people against vaccines. But it's it's like the you
Speaker 1: know that year everyone was like god like eighteen is
Speaker 1: on a weird one. All these celebrities are dying and
Speaker 1: it's just like, no, there's just a lot of celebrities
Speaker 1: who are in their sixties and seventies and eighties at
Speaker 1: this point. You know, it's like that, it's you're just
Speaker 1: seeing It's like I used to think people in Russia
Speaker 1: where the wildest drivers, and it turns out it's just
Speaker 1: that Russian that like most Russian cars have a dash cam,
Speaker 1: and so you just see all the footage of the
Speaker 1: wilder ship that's happening on roads everywhere around the world happened,
Speaker 1: and like they actually share the footage as opposed to
Speaker 1: you know, we don't. We don't all have cameras constantly
Speaker 1: taking the footage. And right, well, now we're catching up
Speaker 1: because now more American people have them now and the
Speaker 1: clips are starting to have American license plate in them,
Speaker 1: and they're equally fucking out their drivers here, I mean
Speaker 1: ship in l A. I I think where I live
Speaker 1: in Glendale is like considered the worst driving in the country.
Speaker 1: It is, I mean four lawlessless and and I grew
Speaker 1: up driving on that ship. I'm a good driver because
Speaker 1: I've had to transit y Yeah, I mean that's had
Speaker 1: some of the most fucking fucked up accidents ever on it, Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: there was one where the guy like was ejected onto
Speaker 1: like a fucking freeway sign, like yeah, yeah, yeah, way again.
Speaker 1: It's just a lot of wild anyway. But all that
Speaker 1: to say, yeah, our confirmation vices are out there, but
Speaker 1: it's just very scary to think of, Like how even
Speaker 1: in our like when the in the pandemic started here
Speaker 1: in twenty like the CDC and the government was like,
Speaker 1: it looks like a lot of stuffs happened in New
Speaker 1: York right now, should we start testing for that, right?
Speaker 1: And they just didn't, and then you know que Curb
Speaker 1: theme song. People have to remember in general that state
Speaker 1: lines are just made up, right, right, because a lot
Speaker 1: of times people will be you know, I'm from the
Speaker 1: East Coast and I'll visit home and people will be like, wow, California,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of like fires and stuff out there.
Speaker 1: Hunt It's like you live here too, Yes, I'm like closer,
Speaker 1: but your planet is also on fire. It's not just like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's only California, and once it hits that line, we
Speaker 1: don't have to worry about it. Yeah, exact only slightly
Speaker 1: further away from you. I think, Yeah, we have such
Speaker 1: a terrible like compartmentalization problem in America, like whether it's
Speaker 1: class or race or like whatever. People like, Man, well
Speaker 1: that's that's for this outer thing outside of my little
Speaker 1: box I think I'm inside of. It's like, no motherfucker,
Speaker 1: Like to your point, it's like you're we're all on
Speaker 1: the same rock, you know, and the problem happening here
Speaker 1: can get to you. They will eventually. Yeah, I flew
Speaker 1: here in like a few hours, like it's happening. You
Speaker 1: might want to, like, you know, take some cover something. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well a little bit further, but still, you know. Part
Speaker 1: of a part of an ongoing trend that we've been
Speaker 1: tracking here that we're seeing happen in Brazil is the
Speaker 1: rise of fascism, and like a very specific type of
Speaker 1: fascism that is like mega fascism, I guess is. But
Speaker 1: so Bolsonaro lost his election and well that's what they say,
Speaker 1: right exactly. We don't know, we don't know, we don't know,
Speaker 1: we don't know. We'll according to according to whom, But
Speaker 1: it's all part of it is like what what you
Speaker 1: satirizing your show? What the p doctor the only doctor
Speaker 1: I listened to. And uh, of course and this Bolsonardo
Speaker 1: thing are all a part of this same trend of
Speaker 1: people feeling disaffected and lonely and feeling you know, rejecting
Speaker 1: the kind of liberal mainstream status quo in many cases
Speaker 1: for like good reasons and in many cases for horrifying,
Speaker 1: you know, racist reasons. But they are like, it's a
Speaker 1: growing it's a growing movement that it feels like we're
Speaker 1: not doing the right things to prevent. But what the
Speaker 1: latest kind of flare up of this is that after
Speaker 1: he lost the election, he kind of pulled a Trump
Speaker 1: and you know, disappeared to Florida, but continued to spread
Speaker 1: wild conspiratorial nonsense, to the point that supporter of storm
Speaker 1: Brazilian Congress over two election loss is was the number
Speaker 1: one story over the weekend on TMZ. What he m
Speaker 1: z none of the rioters are dating Pete Davidson, but
Speaker 1: that I was their number one store tmzs onto it.
Speaker 1: I think we should be too, but I don't know
Speaker 1: he's been. His protesters have been blocking roads, setting vehicles
Speaker 1: on fire, camping out outside military headquarters, urging the arm
Speaker 1: forces to intervene. And yeah, a lot of American media
Speaker 1: outlets are comparing this to January six, partly because we
Speaker 1: are incapable of seeing a global news story and not
Speaker 1: making it about ourselves. Yeah. Well, but also when Steve
Speaker 1: Bannon is a Boll scenario advisor, you know, and he
Speaker 1: was ringing that bell from over here like last year
Speaker 1: saying like, I don't know, it looks like real contested.
Speaker 1: We'll see what happened. I mean, he was his whole
Speaker 1: thing was like I'm hoping for another January six in Brazil.
Speaker 1: And it it's weird too because like it it was
Speaker 1: everything about it was just kind of off, like it
Speaker 1: was on a Sunday, so no officials were there, so
Speaker 1: like they weren't necessarily like stopping the certification of an
Speaker 1: election or something. They just like pulled up and just
Speaker 1: like ransacked the place. And that was like about then
Speaker 1: there's even like a q Q shaman q and on
Speaker 1: shaman like fucking like like analogous dude. But in Brazilian
Speaker 1: colors who also showed up. There's like so much imitation
Speaker 1: happening to it's very has the same has one of
Speaker 1: every type of person, right, Yeah, there's an Italian one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they all have one. Yeah, but it's but it's funny too,
Speaker 1: because like they go into it thinking they're like, this
Speaker 1: is what the people want. Like they're on this like
Speaker 1: wave of self righteousness, like even with the January six people,
Speaker 1: they're like, we're patriots or whatever. But the problem is,
Speaker 1: like I think, because they think they're on such a
Speaker 1: like righteous course and then they like objectively lose an election,
Speaker 1: it's like, well, I'm not gonna fucking say, oh maybe
Speaker 1: I would, maybe I didn't represent the will of the people.
Speaker 1: They're gonna double down and be like, no, fuck it,
Speaker 1: put your face paint on, and now will storm the capital.
Speaker 1: Like I don't know if you saw that one clip
Speaker 1: where the one guy's like, yeah, man, we can take
Speaker 1: that building. We can we can get in there, and
Speaker 1: there's a guy behind him he was like and then
Speaker 1: what like on January six, And that's kind of the mentality.
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, you're angry, you pulled up, but because
Speaker 1: you're all there motivated by this like like all of
Speaker 1: these very disparate principles, like everyone's there for their own
Speaker 1: fucking weird reason. Like it's it's they don't quite turn
Speaker 1: into like this hyper potent thing. But I will say this.
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously Brazil has had a military dictatorship, so
Speaker 1: they're not far off being like y'all get involved like
Speaker 1: like y'all did in the sixties to eighties. Please and
Speaker 1: apparently the local police report to the governor, who is
Speaker 1: a former Bolton arrow ally and this was similarly to
Speaker 1: January six, This is being planned openly on the internet
Speaker 1: for at least two weeks. I think even there's even
Speaker 1: more planning to the to the point that the buses
Speaker 1: were chartered that showed up for the for the storming
Speaker 1: of the capitol. Like this is this is like a
Speaker 1: you know, the the Civil War reenactments that are like,
Speaker 1: all right, this is what this is what you do
Speaker 1: when you lose an election and you're have a right
Speaker 1: wing dictator on the ballot. I love that everyone for
Speaker 1: all this stuff has to use social media and text messages,
Speaker 1: you know, like no one is like, hey, if we're
Speaker 1: going to be secretive, praviously, we can't text. And they
Speaker 1: all just text openly and then they get subpoenas and
Speaker 1: it's like, look, it's all here. I have every text
Speaker 1: that they wrote to each other. Like I just can't
Speaker 1: help it, you know, it's convenient. I like the blue bubbles.
Speaker 1: We all gotta have iPhones when we're planning. The second
Speaker 1: the second they figure out their ops sec, oh, it's trouble.
Speaker 1: But until then, yeah, their egos will continue to assist
Speaker 1: those who are seeking to keep texting, Yeah, put it on,
Speaker 1: put it on, get or or whatever saying signal. I
Speaker 1: think there's something that is like specifically social media driven
Speaker 1: about the like that specific impulse of well, there must
Speaker 1: have there must have been cheating going on, because everyone
Speaker 1: I speak to and all the information that I see
Speaker 1: is like creating this world where he's gonna win in
Speaker 1: a landslide. And that is because you are being fed
Speaker 1: and algorithm that is designed just for you based on
Speaker 1: what you want to see. So like that again, it's
Speaker 1: like a very it's a lonely world by design, and
Speaker 1: that it is it has been designed exactly and only
Speaker 1: for you, And so it doesn't actually like where else
Speaker 1: are you going to find the people who agree with you?
Speaker 1: But on social media because you go door to door
Speaker 1: right just to get a storm in the capital. Hi,
Speaker 1: I just wanted to see what what you knew about
Speaker 1: a violent overthrow of the government, and I might be
Speaker 1: able to interest you in joining us this weekend, yes
Speaker 1: or no. Yeah, but the riot was condemned by pretty
Speaker 1: much everyone except for Steve Bannon and other mega folks
Speaker 1: who were like Brazilian freedom fighters, that's what we're looking at.
Speaker 1: There were some, there were some quiet Republicans, like they're
Speaker 1: still the ones that are trying to figure out like
Speaker 1: where their soul is or they're like, I'm not gonna raw, right,
Speaker 1: But I can't say that's bad because then I'll get
Speaker 1: just absolutely you know, so you just on the internet
Speaker 1: by the maga people. But yeah, we shall see. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but Dan, it sounds like you when we mentioned him earlier,
Speaker 1: like Steve's a friend, Steve, Yeah, Steve's a good pal. Uh.
Speaker 1: He and I have the same skincare regimen and yeah,
Speaker 1: I just he's a beautiful, fun guy. Love him, do
Speaker 1: the same dental routine to sleep with a bunch of jobs. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and just I'm like, Steve Hetty, get those cool red
Speaker 1: spots all over you. All the insides are on your
Speaker 1: outsides because you're so evil that your a body that
Speaker 1: can't contain any kind of maladies. That's true power when
Speaker 1: when your body starts turning, it someth inside out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: when you look like um the Emperor or whatever from
Speaker 1: Star Wars, you're like cool, You're in a good spot.
Speaker 1: You look like the bad guy, like the worst bad
Speaker 1: guy ever made in movies. You look like him. Palpatine.
Speaker 1: Swam Palpayeah, Okay, rise and grind. I'm on my Palpatine, Palpa. Dude,
Speaker 1: I nailed him, Palpatine. That's messed up, man. You heard
Speaker 1: it here there it is. Why did they call it
Speaker 1: round teen? He's a round emperor. All right, let's take
Speaker 1: a quick break. We'll be right back, and we're back.
Speaker 1: And this is this is our JFK assassination conspiracy. This
Speaker 1: is our yeah, for our generation. So back in two
Speaker 1: thousand twelve, you might remember I didn't, but you guys did.
Speaker 1: Kim Kardashian flour bombed. She was being interviewed on the
Speaker 1: red carpet. Someone came up and I it was going
Speaker 1: to be more like violent than it was. It was
Speaker 1: more of like she was sprinkled with flower. Her head
Speaker 1: did go back and to the left as as it happened,
Speaker 1: but she was at an event launching her Knew perfume.
Speaker 1: It drew attention to the product and the seriousness of
Speaker 1: begging ingredient based attacks like police were called and everything,
Speaker 1: like Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department says deputies were called
Speaker 1: to the London hotel because somebody threw powder on her
Speaker 1: and you know, you don't know that it's flower exactly
Speaker 1: be the cocaine that her pr agent was doing. When
Speaker 1: so that's it. That's an expensive prank. Yes, I want
Speaker 1: to throw like a quarter pound of cocaine on somebody. Okay,
Speaker 1: do you I got eight ounces of money? She bravely
Speaker 1: refused medical treatment at the time. Paramedics were called to
Speaker 1: the hotel, but Cardasi refused medical treatment and described it
Speaker 1: as the most craziest, unexpected, weird thing that ever happened
Speaker 1: to me. Do you want to jack you said, you've
Speaker 1: never seen it. Do you want to see the Do
Speaker 1: you want to watch the video? The yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: the audio is just interesting because she's giving an interview
Speaker 1: and the person just utters for hag because it was
Speaker 1: like an anti fur protest supposedly, But she's given an interview,
Speaker 1: she's talking, she's talking. Oh, here comes a person from
Speaker 1: the bag with the bag. Here's the thing, though, this
Speaker 1: is the beginning of Kim Kardashian's terrible acting career because
Speaker 1: knowing what we know now, her her reactions are very
Speaker 1: like I knew that she was gonna she was like
Speaker 1: feigning outrage. She's like, oh no, but she's smiling. She's smiling. Right,
Speaker 1: here's oh ship happened? Are according to plan? Anyway? So
Speaker 1: what were you saying about this? And then walks off
Speaker 1: with her head down like almost like trying to stifle
Speaker 1: a lad Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, Or it was kind
Speaker 1: of doing that thing where you like someone through a
Speaker 1: like on a reality show where someone throws a drink
Speaker 1: on someone and they're not trying to let that phase them,
Speaker 1: so they go right, oh okay, right and just wipe
Speaker 1: the drink off, grabbing their hair. Yeah yeah, yeah. Anyways,
Speaker 1: we recently learned that it was all a PR stunt.
Speaker 1: She was totally in on it. Her PR agent and
Speaker 1: her planned the Foe attack in order to create a
Speaker 1: media moment. She supposedly told Kim Kardashian, if we create
Speaker 1: media gold, guess what's going to happen. Everyone's going to
Speaker 1: be talking about your perfume. Everyone's going to buy it.
Speaker 1: Did that happen? I'm wearing it? Right now. Okay, but
Speaker 1: I thought you were saying you always wear white diamonds.
Speaker 1: You said, yeah, it's a little it's a milange. Did
Speaker 1: Tom Cruise have something similar happened to him to where
Speaker 1: he got flower bombed? It literally they got her sprayed
Speaker 1: with a squirt gun? I think was it? I thought
Speaker 1: he got flower bombed too? Oh did he? I think
Speaker 1: he did? Maybe this works so well, or maybe he
Speaker 1: got glitter bombed. He got I think heat. Wait, let's see,
Speaker 1: there's a whole thing he said was get attacked, glitter
Speaker 1: bomb flower bombed? Uh, kim got the flower? Who is this?
Speaker 1: I think Lindsay Lohan got hit with glitter and flower?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah? What? Yeah? What? What? Something I don't know
Speaker 1: that looks like a liquid on? What did that? Maybe
Speaker 1: he did get wet. He did at one point get
Speaker 1: spread with a squirk gun. And I just remember because
Speaker 1: he he has this like very friendly facade. But when
Speaker 1: he got sprayed with a squirk gun, it went away.
Speaker 1: It was because I thought this was a part of
Speaker 1: something about Mary. Somebody has what is happening in this picture?
Speaker 1: So yeah, he got mad Lindsay Lohan and and the
Speaker 1: screen cap that they used of her glitter bomb at
Speaker 1: tech looks like she's being hit with molten metal, yeah,
Speaker 1: or then grenade went on. I don't know. This is
Speaker 1: interesting to me because it suggests that, like there are
Speaker 1: those times where you hear a conspiracy theory, like I
Speaker 1: had recently heard that all that don't worry Darling extreme
Speaker 1: media push controversy was all part of some four D
Speaker 1: chess plan, And it did seem to like it had
Speaker 1: a big opening weekend and then kind of died off
Speaker 1: after that. But that is a big opening weekend is
Speaker 1: usually a testament to a really successful media push, And
Speaker 1: I don't know like this So first of all, it's
Speaker 1: such a bad idea, like to say out loud, We're
Speaker 1: going to make people by your perfume by dumping flower
Speaker 1: on your head. But it is also like the it
Speaker 1: was definitely like conceived by someone who was doing too
Speaker 1: many stimulants, I think, whether it be coffee or what
Speaker 1: it was, but it's it does kind of in my
Speaker 1: mind too. Okay, I'm going to be viewing any anything
Speaker 1: like this in the future through new glasses because of right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it makes sense because so much is like
Speaker 1: celebrity is such a spectacle that all you have to
Speaker 1: do is, you know, think a little bit ahead of
Speaker 1: how people are going to respond to what's happening to
Speaker 1: a celebrity, and you get this kind of ship like
Speaker 1: all the time or like it would be like, oh,
Speaker 1: if someone does this, then it's popping. If you got
Speaker 1: all this talk around, you know, the stuff that was
Speaker 1: going on set or whatever, people are going to be
Speaker 1: talking because I feel like it's the days we used
Speaker 1: to just take movies in. There would be a billboard,
Speaker 1: there will be a fucking bus bench ad, there will
Speaker 1: be a couple of music videos, and you knew a
Speaker 1: movie was coming up. But I think in the age
Speaker 1: of like the Internet everything, it's like those same I
Speaker 1: don't think those work in the same way, and they
Speaker 1: kind of have to do like run psy ops on
Speaker 1: the fucking audience to get them interested on some level. Right, Well,
Speaker 1: related but not related is thinking about the whole I
Speaker 1: don't know if you've all talked about it at the
Speaker 1: gin Shaw thing, right, So, her bringing a fake bag
Speaker 1: to her her sentencing, everyone has been talking about that,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, as much as people are like, oh
Speaker 1: this thing, I'm like, that's what these reality folks have
Speaker 1: been crafted to do. They've they've learned how to make
Speaker 1: every moment of their anything happening, it's a moment. And
Speaker 1: so like, I'm not surprised that someone would come out
Speaker 1: and say Kim Kardashian's flower blom thing was a moment
Speaker 1: for me. I'm sorry, but I'm laughing because as I'm
Speaker 1: looking through the photos, there's these people vacuuming up the flower,
Speaker 1: and it's taking me down every time I see someone
Speaker 1: with an actual vacuum vacuuming up the flower. But all
Speaker 1: that to say, I'm not surprised cleaning up. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: not surprised at all. Yeah, but I'm curious to hear
Speaker 1: from you guys, any any like gang, what are stories
Speaker 1: like this that you always suspected we're an inside job? There?
Speaker 1: There have been that Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian's sex
Speaker 1: tape leaks were both you know, things that they did
Speaker 1: that you know what, whether it was an inside job
Speaker 1: or not, both like exploded their careers and to the stratosphere.
Speaker 1: You know, Paris Hilton say that wasn't she wasn't a
Speaker 1: part of that. She has come out and said that,
Speaker 1: But it's because because it was that wasn't, Yeah, because
Speaker 1: I feel like the guy she was with like a
Speaker 1: total yeah predator. Yeah, I don't know what other things.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not saying this is an inside job.
Speaker 1: But when the Caitlin Jenner vanity fair cover came out,
Speaker 1: right when she came out, that was the day like
Speaker 1: the renewal of the Patriot Act was going on, and
Speaker 1: there was a lot of outrage because Edward Snowden was
Speaker 1: like doing like, you know what the n s A
Speaker 1: is kind of up to. There was a huge conversation
Speaker 1: around surveillance. But the debate like on like the day before,
Speaker 1: there's all this debate going on, and then that like
Speaker 1: they were like trying to get the votes right and
Speaker 1: they finally got it through just served as a great
Speaker 1: I was more of an example of a great like
Speaker 1: pop culture distraction. Was something really fucking like is happening? Yeah, yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what I always thought, Like when you look at
Speaker 1: the dates of it, you're like, wow, that's I think
Speaker 1: just more serendipitous for the military industrial complex and surveillance state.
Speaker 1: Then Caitlyn Jenner ends up being a Republican politician. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then and then the end it's like it wasn't
Speaker 1: all just so you know, I feel like Julia Fox
Speaker 1: was never interested in Kanye, but that's not necessarily something
Speaker 1: I think was a setup that just seems like self serving,
Speaker 1: like social climbing of the lowest common denominator variety. But
Speaker 1: I don't know what other you know, like was the
Speaker 1: Tom cruise jumping up and down on the couch that
Speaker 1: felt contrived or was that real? You know, like what
Speaker 1: what where do we land on that? I think that
Speaker 1: was a Dean scream level, like the media ran with
Speaker 1: something because they were ready to pile on you're doing
Speaker 1: the opposite, and because he when when you picture that
Speaker 1: moment in your mind, what do you see? Like do
Speaker 1: you see him jumping up and down on the couch
Speaker 1: like the trampoline? Yeah? In my mind, I think, so
Speaker 1: what actually had he jumped on the couch, stood there
Speaker 1: for a second, and then jumped off Like when you
Speaker 1: go back and watch it, it's somewhat underwhelming. He just
Speaker 1: hopped on, Yeah, he hopped on then hopped on. He Like,
Speaker 1: I'm not saying the version that came through into the
Speaker 1: like collective consciousness was earned by just like his being
Speaker 1: intense to a degree that it's like, well, that person
Speaker 1: is really not human and their career is built on
Speaker 1: them portraying humans up to that point. And since then,
Speaker 1: Tom Cruise has been like, all right, what if my
Speaker 1: thing is just I'm the most intense person and I
Speaker 1: will die for you to watch my movie. But I
Speaker 1: think I don't think the media had to work too
Speaker 1: hard on that one as opposed to the Dean Scream.
Speaker 1: But I I do think that that one wasn't. It
Speaker 1: was just people were ready to be like this person
Speaker 1: is We're out on Tom Cruise, right, Okay, yeah that's
Speaker 1: my theory anyway. But yeah, he say I love my wife?
Speaker 1: Or did he say I love that woman? I love
Speaker 1: that woman? I believe that's what I remember. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: was that's a lot, very believable. Yeah, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of that's a lot of drugs, funny, Yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, I think he's just got the natural
Speaker 1: He's got the CEO energy, you know, yeah, because he's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: if if he weren't an actor, he'd be like some
Speaker 1: billionaire who like you know, like let like millions of
Speaker 1: people die like under his watch, but his day clapping,
Speaker 1: you know, like just that right, Alright, Well, Speaking of
Speaker 1: other movie stars, Mel Gibson is reportedly making Passion of
Speaker 1: the Christ to cruise Control. As writer Jim put it,
Speaker 1: it's not called control but control. Yeah. But he's apparently
Speaker 1: just months away from making a sequel to his torture
Speaker 1: porn blockbuster The Passion of the Christ. He had talked
Speaker 1: about the what's it about? So this is this is interesting.
Speaker 1: So he's talked before about the project and said that
Speaker 1: it's going to be wild and a vast theological experience.
Speaker 1: That is an acid trip, which sounded cool to me,
Speaker 1: much cooler than the First Passion of the Christ. I
Speaker 1: don't know if y'all saw that, but that is the
Speaker 1: least movie like Anti Semitism was a little wacky in
Speaker 1: that one, Oh my God, and there's just like, no
Speaker 1: there there's no plot. It's just a person getting beaten
Speaker 1: until the thing and looking Jim Caviel is doing right now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it really He also, I'm pretty sure got struck by
Speaker 1: lightning while he was on the cross during the film
Speaker 1: of that movie. Is like, how many signs do you need?
Speaker 1: Like this is this is the sort of thing he'll
Speaker 1: believe in, Like how many sides signs that a god
Speaker 1: is up there not wanting this to happen. Do you
Speaker 1: need if that's what we believe him? But anytime anyways,
Speaker 1: the idea is that it will happen in the time
Speaker 1: between Jesus dying and Jesus rising in like some like heaven,
Speaker 1: hell nether world thing. So it's just gonna be a
Speaker 1: totally different genre. It's gonna be alright, a man. I
Speaker 1: love to see someone really religious their religion and treating
Speaker 1: with the proper sanctity in respect it deserves being like
Speaker 1: a man. What about between Friday and Sunday? Though? What
Speaker 1: the funk was what was going on in that's right?
Speaker 1: He was in the Yeah, do you think it starts
Speaker 1: off like Friday? Like it starts like the first thing
Speaker 1: with but but but but it's Friday. Yeah, but then
Speaker 1: they yeah, then they have him what like in a
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's I can't believe, like someone's finding whatever. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's always somebody wants to make Jesus stuff. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: there's a there's a history of people trying to make
Speaker 1: sequels this because mel Gibson can't like copyright the story
Speaker 1: of Jesus or anti Semitism, so he's you know, lots
Speaker 1: of people have been like, hey, this this is a
Speaker 1: recipe that works. So there was a Christian film producer
Speaker 1: who tried to crab fund forty million dollars to make
Speaker 1: a sequel. It didn't really go anywhere. Most fucked up
Speaker 1: attempt to make a follow up to the Passion of
Speaker 1: the Christ came from the original film screenwriter Benedict Fitzgerald.
Speaker 1: So Benny Fits after the movie came out, was not
Speaker 1: getting any job offers, which is, you know, it is
Speaker 1: one of the most successful movies of all time. But
Speaker 1: on the other hand, the film was let's say controversial
Speaker 1: and also literal garbage is one of the worst movies.
Speaker 1: But also I was just like curious about like what
Speaker 1: was his backstory? Was he working? Like did he write
Speaker 1: Lethal Weapon four? And then Mel Gibson rapped him into
Speaker 1: this or what not a ton of credits, but is
Speaker 1: from like have you ever seen quiz show movie quiz
Speaker 1: Show where it's when refin yeah, then and this guy
Speaker 1: who is like from a famous intellectual family becomes a
Speaker 1: famous quiz show contestant and gets all the answers, but
Speaker 1: he's cheating, and like that's what it seems like. This
Speaker 1: person is the So his dad is a famous poet
Speaker 1: critic named Robert Fitzgerald, and when he was a kid,
Speaker 1: Flannery O'Connor babysat him. But so he's like literary loyalty
Speaker 1: and this was kind of he like worked on a
Speaker 1: couple of TV shows and then this was his biggest thing.
Speaker 1: And then everyone's like, oh man, we really didn't like that.
Speaker 1: So he hasn't been able to get work. But he
Speaker 1: was able to get a big pay day by saying, actually, okay,
Speaker 1: what about prequel? And he and he interested in a
Speaker 1: prequel and everyone's like, hell no. But he was able
Speaker 1: to raise money to make the movie by turning to
Speaker 1: a Mexican drug cartel. Okay, signed an agreement with them.
Speaker 1: Was very agreements exactly, was shockingly incurious about like what
Speaker 1: what are these people? Where's all this money coming from?
Speaker 1: From these people that nobody in Hollywood's ever heard of?
Speaker 1: And the cartel sued him over some money he couldn't
Speaker 1: pay back, and the car tells suited him. Yes, I
Speaker 1: like that. The cartels like, hey, man, get a business
Speaker 1: agreement this guy, Yeah, we don't know when, we don't
Speaker 1: know how he moves. So the cartel signed over the
Speaker 1: rights to the movie to two men, one of whom
Speaker 1: wanted the other to give up his half of the script,
Speaker 1: and when he refused, the other guy kidnapped his brother,
Speaker 1: with the ransom being a fact note, agreeing to give
Speaker 1: up his half of the Passion prequel. Oh my, this
Speaker 1: is the movie. This is the movie. Why someone's not
Speaker 1: making this a movie? Just be writing what is happening
Speaker 1: to stupid ahead, This guy runs a ballo to cartel.
Speaker 1: There's fucking kidnapping over the rights to the Passion of
Speaker 1: the Christ. This is the movie. Why is no one
Speaker 1: making this? This option? Has someone optioned this? Because we should?
Speaker 1: It is actually a fantastic movie that you can make
Speaker 1: and argo, yeah exactly. The script was then sold for
Speaker 1: one million dollars to a producer who was immediately questioned
Speaker 1: by the d A. And then when the arrest was
Speaker 1: made the government, like the US government, it claimed the
Speaker 1: rights to ten percent of the future profits of Mary,
Speaker 1: Mother of Christ, the name of the movie, because it
Speaker 1: was gonna be all about Mary, which they then ended
Speaker 1: up losing in court like they got sued to give
Speaker 1: up their rights to it. And then after all that,
Speaker 1: the movie was never made because the scripted become tainted.
Speaker 1: But this is the legacy of a passionate Christ sequel,
Speaker 1: which is like, on one level, it's like the Titanic sequel,
Speaker 1: like it's a thing you would joke about. It feels impossible,
Speaker 1: But yeah, I said, it's just not. I gotta see
Speaker 1: this movie now about this fucking guy going to the
Speaker 1: cartel to make a film that is so awful and
Speaker 1: the downward spiral that ensues. That's that's why I'm that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, but I just like that that the pivot
Speaker 1: was all right, then let's do it like right after
Speaker 1: they take him off the cross until it's Sunday. We'll
Speaker 1: do that. Okay, we burned the prequel, we don't. Nobody
Speaker 1: has the rights to the acid trip in the fucking
Speaker 1: cave in the tomb, as it were. That's right, so
Speaker 1: we'll see. We'll I'll be eagerly awaiting that. Talking to Satan,
Speaker 1: say the serpent, do you think what is that gonna
Speaker 1: look like? Do you know what I mean? How do
Speaker 1: you even do that? That? Won't I feel like even
Speaker 1: Christian people who fused with the first one might even
Speaker 1: be offended by whatever the director's depiction is of all
Speaker 1: this other stuff. It's gonna be wildly offensive and boring
Speaker 1: at the same time, like the first one, Like is
Speaker 1: there gonna be a scene where he's like what I mean,
Speaker 1: like going to like the cameras and then he lands
Speaker 1: in like a dark void where am I Welcome to Hell?
Speaker 1: Jesus your mind unless you can beat me in this
Speaker 1: fiddling content. James Brown gets a whole sequence because he's
Speaker 1: down there entertaining welcome to Hell and the doors open
Speaker 1: and it's just Jesus is like, what is going on?
Speaker 1: I mean, that would be in a way if you said,
Speaker 1: there's a fucking sequence where Jesus goes in a fucking
Speaker 1: wormhole to a black void which is Hell, and then
Speaker 1: he has a dance battle with James Brown. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: lights pop on. Yeah, I'm like, okay, look, I don't
Speaker 1: funk with Mel Gibson, but this is so absurd. I
Speaker 1: might have to torrent the Eegal version of the film
Speaker 1: because I might have to see that. Yeah, I would
Speaker 1: watch it just to laugh. Yeah. Yeah. Oh man, wells
Speaker 1: the wait. Would Jim Cavezel come back for this? I
Speaker 1: have to imagine. I don't think he's gonna object. Jim
Speaker 1: Caviezel he's gone full right wing mega. Yeah, what's that
Speaker 1: gonna do? I know, I mean talk about controversy on
Speaker 1: top of controversy. Hey, Past of the Christ too, and
Speaker 1: it will probably do extremely well from conflict marketing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so called electric Tumolo. Yeah, it is funny to me
Speaker 1: that it is funny to me that they blamed for
Speaker 1: for the flower bombing, like they're made up villain was
Speaker 1: animal rights person? Like they're just always they they know, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they have the four D chess mind to know that,
Speaker 1: like the media wants to blame, like they won't look
Speaker 1: too deep into that. They would love to blame an
Speaker 1: animal rights person. So yeah, there is but yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean the conflict, the first passion of the crisis probably
Speaker 1: the best example of conflict marketing. Like that movie is
Speaker 1: a monster monster hit. Yeah, and I don't like they
Speaker 1: were churches were being like it is your duty. You
Speaker 1: will go to hell if you don't go out and
Speaker 1: see this movie. Because isn't an aramaic to ship? Yeah yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: remember a whole bunch of different languages, right, Well, I
Speaker 1: can't wait to see the Shroud of Turin, Like is
Speaker 1: he gonna use the shroud? Is? Like does he tie
Speaker 1: that up in like a nice head wrap or something. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, Okay, we're starting our own Yeah, the three
Speaker 1: of us about to write this script. John wet you
Speaker 1: have to write this all right, that's gonna do it.
