1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:06,760
Speaker 1: Hello everybody, and welcome to this Thursday edition. Oh trend

2
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 1: Z says Instagram likes are micro cheating. When I'm Miles

3
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: Gray and I'm here joined by my guest co.

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:18,920
Speaker 2: Host Chris crofton Illo pleasure to be here.

5
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,080
Speaker 3: Look this first story, I don't know.

6
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,480
Speaker 1: It sounds like younger people are now trying to describe

7
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: liking a micro cheating. Now. This is an intern as

8
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: the Washington Post describes, an Internet era term for small

9
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:35,480
Speaker 1: act of betrayal.

10
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 3: Now, this is something to do with something like, you know,

11
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 3: maybe liking a bikini photo of someone else. Is it harmful?

12
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 3: Is it harmless? Who knows?

13
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 1: But I think because we're all in this new era

14
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: where you can interact so much digitally, we have a

15
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: new way of I guess we got a new term now,

16
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: micro cheating, which is.

17
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 2: Oh, okay. This is interesting, Miles, because some times, you know,

18
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 2: when you can see your friend's likes, like on Instagram,

19
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, and you suspect some you

20
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 2: meet somebody and like you meet their husband and you

21
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 2: think he seems like a creep, and then you are

22
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 2: also being a creep. But you're single, so it's okay.

23
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,119
Speaker 2: So you're like so you're like, like me, like, I'm single,

24
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 2: So I'm like looking at like some bikini lady has

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 2: like one hundred billion followers, you know, right, and then

26
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 2: you see the sad fuckers that put a like on

27
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 2: their shit, like hoping that she will pick.

28
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 3: Their like to like be like I want to have

29
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 3: sex with you or whatever.

30
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 2: They you'll see.

31
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,399
Speaker 3: Some guy you're like, oh, people will like.

32
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 2: This, and it's like a billion likes, and then it

33
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: says people you know, and it shows that dude. It's

34
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 2: like that dude, and it's like those dudes are so

35
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 2: horny and desperate, and so I think I don't know,

36
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's cheating, but I think it's

37
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 2: an indicator. I think if you see somebody putting their

38
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 2: like on some.

39
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's first, especially.

40
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 2: When they're sixty thousand likes and you picture this guy

41
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 2: was a family being, like I like this.

42
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: I Also I see people though, too, like scroll Instagram

43
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: and they like it. I know, people just like everything

44
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: like on the thing, which is so too yeah yeah,

45
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: and not even defending them. Like I remember catching a

46
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: frame like are you just liking every photo you see?

47
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, man, my friends and stuff it's like.

48
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: Living on like honey, that's why. That's why I thought,

49
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 2: you know, that's why you think you have a career,

50
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 2: and then you find out you don't when you go

51
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 2: on a tour, You're like, fuck this many likes, I'm

52
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 2: gonna book fucking Carnegie.

53
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: Hall, I'm too fucking Stintyre, or I just don't like.

54
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: I just never thought of like the feedback loop of

55
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: like reward of like or whatever. Anyway, uh So, micro cheaters, beware,

56
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 1: there is a new term for you liking thirst trap

57
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: pictures or you know, leaving comments with the most part

58
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: et cetera. Next thing, Supreme Court one of your favorite topics, Chris,

59
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 1: Uh Well, So as it stands, I know they shot

60
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: down on an EPA measure that would have kept the

61
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: air clean. I haven't fully dove into what that was,

62
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 1: but the main things that we saw as they wrap

63
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 1: up their last session, they are allowing emergency abortions in Idaho.

64
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 1: But the only reason is they said they're not actually

65
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: going to rule on the merits quite yet, So that's

66
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: not We're not fully out of the water with that

67
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: case where you know, they were saying that someone has

68
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: to be on the brink of death in that state

69
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:22,359
Speaker 1: before an emergency abortion could be performed. But another thing

70
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 1: they also were seemingly gave the green light to our bribes.

71
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: There was a yeah, local mayor who basically bought a

72
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: bunch of trash trucks for about a million dollars, and

73
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: then that company gave him a nice little thirteen thousand

74
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: dollars donation after the fact. People are like, that seems

75
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: like a tip for tet interaction there. He said, it

76
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: was a gratuity, much in the same way you know

77
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: that people are given plaques for their service from interest

78
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: groups and things like that. Well, Kavanaugh, writing for the

79
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: Conservative majority, said that the question in the case was,

80
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: quote whether federal law makes it a crime for date

81
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: and local officials to accept such gratuities after the fact.

82
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: He wrote, the answer is no. So yeah, I've been

83
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 1: talking about it.

84
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 2: If you follow my social media, I tend to not you,

85
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 2: but just in general, you know, I talk about I

86
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 2: mean the Supreme Court at this point, to report on

87
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 2: the Supreme Court as if it's like a legitimate organization,

88
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 2: is I mean, if they put it, if they put

89
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 2: it like a little asterisk on like this is COVID

90
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 2: misinformation and they should always have an asterisk on every

91
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 2: Supreme Court decision from now on that this court is illegitimate,

92
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 2: because that's not like up for debate, it's it's been proven.

93
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,839
Speaker 2: This is a proven fact that we have a bunch

94
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 2: of corrupted justices that have no right making these decisions.

95
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 2: And so it's like very difficult for our sort of

96
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 2: both sides journalism or just even like norms, like the

97
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 2: idea that the Supreme Court is compromised as not something

98
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,239
Speaker 2: that like the New York Times or the Washington Post

99
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 2: are prepared to deal with because there are certain things

100
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 2: that they expect to be givens that the Supreme Court's

101
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 2: not corrupted.

102
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 3: So they don't kind of discuss it, well.

103
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: They do it in this sense where they bring up

104
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: how send it like someone else is concerned with it,

105
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: rather than like as a statement of fact, you're like,

106
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: this is like such a politicized body.

107
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 2: Now it should be the headline every day they make

108
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 2: the decisions for this whole fucking country.

109
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no sense of objectivity.

110
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: They're not just you know, like trying to make decisions

111
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: based on the law as they see it. Like, especially

112
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: when you see things with Samuel Alito and his wife

113
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 1: or Clarence Thomas or just all the conservative justices who

114
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: have all these question marks and murky shit behind them,

115
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: and you're like, yeah, they were all put in there

116
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: by the Federalist Society and they're here to do the

117
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: bidding of the conservative movement.

118
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 3: And yeah, it should be the top story.

119
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 2: That's the thing is like there's a couple top stories

120
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: that should be every day, and then everything else should

121
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 2: be underneath because they all follow from that. That's like

122
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 2: Citizens United and and and you know, declining tax rates

123
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 2: for the wealthy and the Supreme Court being corrupted as

124
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 2: a result of those two aforementioned things, and then everything

125
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 2: else should be under that. And that's why everybody feels

126
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 2: crazy because they've.

127
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 3: Read those things.

128
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, those things explain so many of the things, even

129
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 1: like with Jamal Bowman losing his primary race, I mean,

130
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: I mean that is millions of dollars all Citizens United.

131
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 2: That's such a disaster, and so just fucking the fact

132
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 2: that Hillary Clinton is mixed up in that God damn

133
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 2: like just that Centrists are fascists and we need to

134
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 2: get our heads around that.

135
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:46,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, because insanity, the status quo is violent, it's death

136
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: for people. It's not it's not something we need to

137
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: be embracing, we need to be moving away from.

138
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 2: But again, that's why both sides doesn't. Both sides only

139
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 2: works if both sides are like you know, you know,

140
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 2: years and years ago, when both sides were sort of

141
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 2: working toward once I was working toward. That doesn't matter

142
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 2: that everybody knows this.

143
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 1: We're like, man, I'm just about to explaining cluck.

144
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 3: We have to cut all the shit out, all right,

145
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 3: but I get the frustration.

146
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: We're gonna take a quick break and we will be

147
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 1: right back, and we're back.

148
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 3: Kevin Costner has.

149
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: A new movie coming out, and it sounds like it's

150
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: like this Western epic. It's called Horizon in American Saga

151
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: Chapter one. It cost one hundred million dollars to make,

152
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: a Costner grew in his own money. Apparently right now,

153
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: it's only projected to make between ten and twelve.

154
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 3: Million dollars at the box office.

155
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 1: Now we've known that these projections, we've been like, they've

156
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 1: been wrong before. But it's clear here that the the

157
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: sort of strategy that the studio is going for is

158
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: like they're trying to do like a sound like they're

159
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: trying to mimic like what the Sound of Freedom did

160
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: last year, like from Middle America. They wanted to come

161
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: out fourth of July, like just kind of get in there,

162
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: get people out there, into the into the theaters.

163
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 3: And because they saw that this.

164
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 1: Like indie film that was just a you know, human

165
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: trafficking topic movie.

166
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 2: That's how fast Ship moves. I forgot that movie existed.

167
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, became one of the biggest fucking like it made a.

168
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: Ton of money during the summer, although a lot of

169
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: people were just buying the tickets and you know, propping

170
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 1: up those numbers. But the movie might be easier to

171
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: track if it actually was a right wing polemic like

172
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: Sound of Freedom.

173
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,439
Speaker 3: Because the thing is with Kevin Costner, it's like what.

174
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 1: We don't really even know where he is politically, He's

175
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 1: quite almost he's all over the place. He's like a

176
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: red state coded regular Joe. But his work and like

177
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: what he says out cloud, yeah, like going, it's.

178
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 2: So true, Kevin Costner is not just a person. He

179
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 2: is like a something something something something.

180
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're like you know, like with even like you know,

181
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,559
Speaker 1: with this film, people are even trying to figure out,

182
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: like what you guys even saying about like colonialism.

183
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 2: He's a white supremacist avatar. He's the hot face of

184
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 2: he could be a Republican governor. It's the same old fucking.

185
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 1: Oh he would easily like yeah, just from the shit

186
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 1: he did in the eighties and nineties when people would

187
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: fucking eat his fucking just.

188
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 2: The same, like the same thing is like this just

189
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 2: sort of idea that if you look like you could

190
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 2: fit on Mount rushmore than you can be the governor

191
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 2: of our state and then everything will be all right.

192
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 2: And if we just had Kevin cost I mean, he

193
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 2: could probably fucking beat Trump.

194
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, Like, yeah, he's still look,

195
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 1: he's himself was a Republican in the eighties who's friends

196
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 1: with Reagan, but then he donated to al Gore and Obama.

197
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty two, he showed up wearing a T

198
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: shirt with the phrase I'm for Liz Cheney, and you're like, oh,

199
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 1: because she was like she was like the first Republican

200
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: to be like yeah, vehemently opposed it, frum outwardly.

201
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 2: He's actually a crusader for freedom.

202
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. The Emperor Balpatine's daughter is so cool.

203
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: We love her, We love her, but even like, look

204
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 1: at like Field of Dreams, right, like, it's about a

205
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: farmer in Iowa who loves baseball, but like the opening

206
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: scene is like like they're at a PTA meeting where

207
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: him and his wife are opposing book bands, and then

208
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 1: the villain is his yuppie brother in law who's only

209
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 1: like about money rather than like the wonders of like

210
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: our universe.

211
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 3: If these ghosts are playing baseball and feel.

212
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 2: To us needing to do a podcast where I watch movies. Yeah,

213
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 2: me and you doing it because I've never seen Field Dreams.

214
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 1: But anyway, but then it ends where like Kevin Costner

215
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: keeps his farm because he's like, he's like monetizes the

216
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: fact that these like ancient baseball ghosts are playing baseball

217
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 1: in this field.

218
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,319
Speaker 3: And then so like the moral of the story ends

219
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 3: up being like follow your dreams, man, and think outside

220
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 3: the box.

221
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: You know, as long as you know how to fucking

222
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 1: commodify that shit and and generate revenue off of it.

223
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 3: Okay, you're like, what is this?

224
00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 2: What this makes me think of? It makes me think

225
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 2: of fucking the Bike Riders. I saw The Bike Riders,

226
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 2: that movie that's out now, you know, sure, and it

227
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 2: was a fun movie.

228
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 3: I enjoyed it.

229
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 2: A female actor who runs it, or's the main character. Basically,

230
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 2: she's great in it. But it's sort of a make

231
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 2: America great again kind of message. It's another one of

232
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 2: these like white you know, biker gangs were better and

233
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 2: less violent when they were all white and it was

234
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 2: the fifties, and it's it's like this hispanic guy shows

235
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 2: up and takes over the biker gang, and it's like

236
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 2: about the decline of biker gangs. I mean, it's like, really,

237
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 2: I can't it's not supposed to be and I guess

238
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 2: the real truth of this is supposed to be based

239
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 2: on a true story and maybe the guy was hispanic

240
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 2: who took over the club, but it's ends up being

241
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 2: fee you can't. I don't know how you can be

242
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 2: so klutzy to make a movie like that and not

243
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 2: see what you're what you're going to, how it's gonna

244
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 2: be perceived. It took me out of the movie. It

245
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 2: made me not enjoy the movie because I was like,

246
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 2: this is actually like kind of I get like, maybe

247
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 2: based on a true story, but it ends up being

248
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 2: another one of these things where it's like, don't we

249
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 2: wish like, man, we're in charge again. I mean, it's

250
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 2: really what it is, and it's all you know. And

251
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 2: that's what Kevin Costner represents. He represents the fetishization I

252
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 2: cannot say fetishization, and I love to say it. The

253
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 2: fetishization of white daddies, of white American fetishization of dudes

254
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 2: with big fucking heads. And I want to know, the

255
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 2: main thing I want to know about fucking Kevin Costner

256
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 2: is justice, justice. What the fuck is on top of

257
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 2: his head? And why has it been that same fuzzy

258
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 2: wuzzy wispy shit since.

259
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 3: All the way back? Like what is that? Like?

260
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 2: Did he for semi ball like realistic looking somewhat lost hair?

261
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 3: Yeah? Was his hair?

262
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 2: I want to know, Like I wish I could get

263
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 2: rich and get some hair, but yeah, Kevin Costner, Man,

264
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,839
Speaker 2: Kevin Costner needs to fucking stop making cowboy movies because

265
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 2: he doesn't understand that he is a whether he knows

266
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,079
Speaker 2: it or not, he's the right wing here, like.

267
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 3: He has all these like other like water World. Know,

268
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 3: you probably didn't even see water World, you know.

269
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 1: Water World is like do you know what it's about?

270
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: Baguely like the polar Ice caps melt and it's all water. Yeah,

271
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: it's like totally about climate change. They never mentioned climate

272
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: change once in that film. Just about the politics of

273
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: his film. Then in two thousand and eight, Chris just

274
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: to put bringing down memory lane, I know you were

275
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: loving the movies and there was a film called Swing

276
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 1: Vote that he was in that's literally about like the

277
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: election coming down to this one guy and what his vote,

278
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 1: like what direction the country is gonna go in?

279
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, money, It's.

280
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,719
Speaker 1: Just it's like off the walls. But like again, a

281
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: lot of people are like, what's the message here, because like

282
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 1: we were, we were grappling with the fucking Iraq war

283
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: and shit, and it's like nothing's like, bro, we're not

284
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 1: saying anything about fucking anything. And he even said like himself,

285
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: he's like the good thing about this is like there

286
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: isn't a message and you're like, oh okay. So it'll

287
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 1: be interesting to see what happens with his new film

288
00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 1: that's about the West but has no take at all.

289
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: And I don't know, maybe if you really leaned into

290
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 1: like the right wing shit, maybe you could get that

291
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: sounder freedom bump.

292
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 3: But we will see. Time will only tell.

293
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 2: Well, that's that's a lazy thing to say. Everything's political

294
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 2: right now, whether it wants to be or not. I mean,

295
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 2: that's the thing. It's like, it's like, you can make

296
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 2: a statement.

297
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 3: You're making a statement.

298
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 2: Yeah you can, it's not.

299
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 3: It's not.

300
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 2: I understand. There was when things are stable, there's a

301
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 2: there's a chance you could be doing something apolitical. But

302
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 2: now everything's political because we're under attack from the inside.

303
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 2: So it's not. I mean, that's not and that's not

304
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 2: an overstatement. So it's like I get you know, he

305
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 2: has to understand, like whether or not he knows it,

306
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 2: he's a white icon and that means something, whether he

307
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 2: doesn't want it to. And then to make a cowboy movie,

308
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 2: I mean, come on, he's making a statement whether he

309
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 2: unless he's an idiot, and he's definitely not an idiot,

310
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 2: or he wouldn't be he wouldn't have such a nice

311
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 2: hair system.

312
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, hair system.

313
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 2: Seriously, I'm fascinated by that, tought Chris.

314
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 3: I know you're on the internet. Have you saw you've

315
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 3: seen the trend about raw dot ugging a flight? I

316
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 3: have not seen what's that r so broad.

317
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: Dogging a flight is when people go on a flight

318
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: of an airplane flight with in the entire time with

319
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 1: zero entertainment, like not not watching.

320
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 3: Anything, not listening to anything, not.

321
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: Reading, just fucking turning your brain off, eyes straight ahead.

322
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 1: Some people even brag they don't go to the bathroom

323
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 1: or even drink water the whole time. They're like, I

324
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 1: just sit there and I'm zoned out, straight ahead. Have

325
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: you ever seen someone do this on a plane?

326
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 2: Uh?

327
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 3: Really, I don't think so.

328
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 2: I don't. I fall asleep when I'm on.

329
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 3: The plane, exactly, I know.

330
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 1: And like you're like mostly in your own world, where well,

331
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: this is like a whole thing people were talking about

332
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: the Internet and now an on deadline, it looks like

333
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: they're a twenty four maybe making a movie about this.

334
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 1: It's called the Entertainment System Is Down, and this is

335
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: the guy who directed A Triangle of Sadness, it says.

336
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: Described as a social satire, the movie takes place on

337
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: a super long haul flight think more than twenty hours.

338
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 1: While passengers would usually have access to digital entertainment, the

339
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 1: protagonists of the movie find themselves in a situation in

340
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: which the entertainment system is in fact down, and they are,

341
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 1: as Ustlin put it in an early interview, quote doomed

342
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: to deal with their boredom.

343
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 3: So, I mean, I think that doesn't.

344
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 2: Sound like a good movie. I'll tell you that. I

345
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 2: don't know what I said about that, except that sounds

346
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 2: like a horrible movie and it sounds like A twenty

347
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 2: four has been infiltrated by morons. I mean, that's not

348
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 2: a good movie.

349
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 3: I saw.

350
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: That's a common movie unless it's like, unless it's a

351
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: commentary on the fact that like people are just unable

352
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 1: to even be in the stillness, because I think that

353
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: is a thing.

354
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 2: Like they make it deeper than like just being like,

355
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 2: you know, there must be a deeper Hopefully they're going

356
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 2: to do like that. You know what that means that

357
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 2: you can't sit through some I mean, yeah, yeah, I'm

358
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 2: interested in I'm not interested. Also, everybody knows this. I

359
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 2: don't care about it. Being example, everyone knows that they're

360
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 2: over entertained and can't be by themselves. I don't need

361
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 2: a twenty four to like illustrate it. Yeah, like, okay,

362
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 2: you know, I mean, oh, you know, like I.

363
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 3: Mean a twenty four.

364
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 1: They're not I mean, they have a decent batting average,

365
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 1: so I'm sure they know what they're coming from.

366
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 3: And I was mad about iron Claw.

367
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:12,120
Speaker 2: I just thought iron Claw.

368
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 1: I know you should have been cast. I know you

369
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: were talking, you were salty about that. You messed up

370
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: that audition.

371
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:18,880
Speaker 2: They didn't even ask me or anything.

372
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know they didn't.

373
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 2: Auditions, Man, that are so ridiculous. I'm surprised I didn't

374
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,919
Speaker 2: get that. That's why I stopped doing auditions. But anyway,
