Speaker 3: he's reading the messages of his.
Speaker 2: Duel on television.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was crazy. You current do that on television.
Speaker 1: And sky Rizzy once again, great rapper named somebody was
Speaker 1: wasted on a medication from water to severe plaxe. All right,
Speaker 1: I'm Jack. That's Miles. It is Wednesday, May ninth, the
Speaker 1: afternoon and uh, North Korea. It just taught me something,
Speaker 1: just taught me a little something. What Uh poop balloons, Miles,
Speaker 1: poop balloons?
Speaker 3: Wait, what do you mean they they taught you that
Speaker 3: it's a thing you're saying you have ideas?
Speaker 1: Now it opened my mind. This is this just feels
Speaker 1: like a thing that I should have thought of when
Speaker 1: I was in middle school, you know, I get that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like it doesn't it's not a pretty It's maybe the
Speaker 1: least precision weapon that I can imagine.
Speaker 2: It's probably the most imprecise weapon.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly, Like it's just anywhere. But here is
Speaker 1: essentially what you're doing. That'd be wild if you set
Speaker 1: up the poop balloon and it just came right back
Speaker 1: down on you on your head.
Speaker 2: Oh poetic.
Speaker 1: So basically, South Korea is accusing North Korea of sending
Speaker 1: balloons across the border which happened to be carrying bags
Speaker 1: full of garbage and quote he sees the sees the
Speaker 1: ninety nine feces, yes, oh, ninety nine pieces balloon or
Speaker 1: Martin Luther reference goes either way. Yea. But yeah, so
Speaker 1: they the balloons specifically have bags attached to them that
Speaker 1: contain plastic bottles, batteries, shoe parts, shoe just parts maybe like.
Speaker 2: Blown off soul.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and what is believed to be manure. So this
Speaker 1: is an exchanse. So South Korea has been known to
Speaker 1: use balloons to send K pop and you know, pro
Speaker 1: South Korea propaganda across the border to the North Korean
Speaker 1: people and North Korea is like, here's what we think
Speaker 1: of your books at those.
Speaker 3: It's not the government doing that though, that's activists.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I don't think I have a government ship balloon program,
Speaker 3: but it sounds like North Korea has a government ship
Speaker 3: balloon pro.
Speaker 1: I don't know, Like when when I was in middle school,
Speaker 1: when I was at that age, you know, some men
Speaker 1: just want to see the world burn. Yeah yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel like this would have been right up my alley.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean I was just shooting BB guns
Speaker 3: at people, you know what I mean, and throwing stink
Speaker 3: bombs and smoke grenades, these little smoke bombs and shit.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I probably could have this would have been
Speaker 3: a little more high minded.
Speaker 1: The BB guns you send it up it gets over
Speaker 1: like the part the place that you want a bomb
Speaker 1: with poop. You want to like, you want the ability.
Speaker 1: I mean, since time in memorial, men have dreamed of
Speaker 1: both flying like birds and shitting on people from.
Speaker 2: About from above, like yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Now's your chance, because you could it floats over neighbors
Speaker 1: house that you don't like, and then you shoot the
Speaker 1: balloon with the BB guns.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, see that that was
Speaker 3: too multi modal for me, and that's all I was
Speaker 3: getting into. I'm like, dude, I don't know, or I
Speaker 3: could just throw this shit at this person riding by a.
Speaker 1: Bike like a fucking ape.
Speaker 3: And I was a shitty, fucking kid, man had I had?
Speaker 3: I learned the hard way a lot of times. So anyway, yeah,
Speaker 3: I was a terrible kid. I was a terrible kid.
Speaker 1: So this is a story that I was talking about
Speaker 1: yesterday or this morning. I forget about CNN just being
Speaker 1: wall to wall coverage of the Trump deliberation. I don't
Speaker 1: want the fact that they're covering it like it's the
Speaker 1: Bronco Chase to distract from the fact that you know,
Speaker 1: it is actually happening, and they the jury just went
Speaker 1: to deliberation to see if the former president, who is
Speaker 1: currently basically probably the favorite to be president again in November,
Speaker 1: will be convicted of a felony. Supposedly, his secret service
Speaker 1: is already like checked with some jails and prisons to
Speaker 1: like see what they would do if he gets put
Speaker 1: in jail, but it's looking unlikely, so that that's basically yeah,
Speaker 1: I just wanted to like check in with this story,
Speaker 1: be like, okay, so if he gets convicted, what are
Speaker 1: the possibilities. So if everybody on the jury agrees that
Speaker 1: a crime has taken place, and there are many counts
Speaker 1: against him, they don't have to all agree on each
Speaker 1: of the counts. But there're thirty four felony falsification of
Speaker 1: business records charges, each one carrying a sentence of up
Speaker 1: to four years in prison and a five thousand dollars fine.
Speaker 1: He is an incredibly rich and powerful white man, so
Speaker 1: probably not going to face the four years in prison,
Speaker 1: but that is theoretically a possibility. But like this judge,
Speaker 1: who I feel like a lot of people are like,
Speaker 1: he's not taken any of Trump's shit, like, has all
Speaker 1: these quotes where he's like, the last thing I want
Speaker 1: to do is put you in jail, sir. You're the
Speaker 1: former president of the United States and possibly not getting
Speaker 1: president as well. And yeah, so I don't know. So
Speaker 1: in New York State, the judge has quote broad authority
Speaker 1: to determine when sentences are handed down after conviction and
Speaker 1: what exactly they will be. So worst case scenario for Trump,
Speaker 1: he gets convicted on all this shit. It then goes
Speaker 1: to this judge who is on the record saying the
Speaker 1: last thing I want to do is to put you
Speaker 1: in jail. It probably means he's not going to jail,
Speaker 1: unless he was saying, last thing I want to do
Speaker 1: is put you in jail, the way somebody like holding
Speaker 1: a knife is like, last thing I want to do
Speaker 1: is have to cut you, you know, right, right, right right?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, because I mean that was the thing with
Speaker 3: all this the gag orders and stuff. He's like, you know,
Speaker 3: he's like, I can find you in contempt, and he
Speaker 3: never did. So it felt just like a lot of
Speaker 3: pump faking with the toughness. But I get that it's
Speaker 3: incredibly I mean, it's it is complex to have someone
Speaker 3: with Secret Service detailed go to jail.
Speaker 1: And that's like the thing. The other thing that he's
Speaker 1: mentioned that was like definitely not a threat is that
Speaker 1: this would be first of all, he's a candidate for
Speaker 1: president of the United States, so their First Amendment rights
Speaker 1: at stake, and he said, quote, I also worry about
Speaker 1: the people who would have to execute that sanction, the
Speaker 1: court officers, the correction officers, the Secret Service detail, among others.
Speaker 3: That's wild though, that you could skirt jail because the judges,
Speaker 3: like this is gonna be such a fucking bummer for everybody.
Speaker 3: So so you know what, I'm gonna let you have this, but.
Speaker 1: You are so annoying.
Speaker 2: Can you vote?
Speaker 1: That's a great question. Could he vote for himself as
Speaker 1: a fill?
Speaker 3: Wow? Too, It's like he ends up like yo, he's
Speaker 3: running for elections, Like obviously I can't vote, so I.
Speaker 1: Need you really to do me a big really helped
Speaker 1: me out.
Speaker 3: I mean, this is the thing, like a lot of
Speaker 3: people are waiting to see what happens with this because
Speaker 3: if he gets acquitted, Yeah, that is going to put
Speaker 3: that campaign on turbo juice. The way they're going to
Speaker 3: be like that you couldn't be guilty, y'all. Not yeah,
Speaker 3: exactly Trump Kelly not guilty.
Speaker 2: You're like, whoa, whoa, whoa what are you? Are you
Speaker 2: playing that song for real right now at your rallies?
Speaker 3: But yeah, it's and then like obviously the Democrats they're
Speaker 3: gonna be like, this guy's a convicted felon.
Speaker 2: So either side stands to potentially gain or not.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean, like this is just the thing with this,
Speaker 3: Like again, this whole trial has been going on, there's
Speaker 3: been this whole circus coverage. But after being burned so
Speaker 3: many times from following Trump trials to be a thing
Speaker 3: of like, dude, wake me up when there's a verdict
Speaker 3: and what the punishment is. I don't care about the
Speaker 3: antics and all the delaying tactics and the depravity of
Speaker 3: his lawyers.
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, that's to be expected.
Speaker 3: The thing that I the thing that's a variable here
Speaker 3: is what is the outcome going to be? That's right,
Speaker 3: And yeah, we will see. Because a few men, there
Speaker 3: was like a poll that came out. They were pulling
Speaker 3: what was it, like likely Trump supporters, and like sixty
Speaker 3: percent like I don't give a fuck what happens, and
Speaker 3: then like thirty percent like, dude, I'll vote harder if.
Speaker 2: He gets convicted.
Speaker 1: Yeah, sixty percent said I don't give a fuck, and
Speaker 1: the other forty said vote harder.
Speaker 2: I'm I'll get hornier for him if he's convicted.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, boots.
Speaker 2: Yeah, anyway, take your sweet ast time November.
Speaker 1: Take time a fucking We'll be right back. And we're back.
Speaker 2: We're back.
Speaker 1: And Biden's Gaza Peer, which was one of his ideas
Speaker 1: for how to address the crisis in Gaza, was built
Speaker 1: a peer where foreign aid could be let in because
Speaker 1: like he can't reason with Israel to let them let
Speaker 1: foreign aid in. So fine, if you won't let it in, can.
Speaker 3: I build a pier like on the other side to
Speaker 3: let it r ah maybe yeah, And that's three hundred
Speaker 3: and twenty million dollars this thing costs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so three hundred and twenty million dollars a taxpayer
Speaker 1: money and it just broke apart in rough seas, so
Speaker 1: they're going to need a week to rebuild it.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, cool, cool, cool, And is there the ace?
Speaker 3: But the aid is getting in for the two weeks
Speaker 3: that it was open, because that was the whole thing
Speaker 3: you said at the State of the Union to try
Speaker 3: and get the heat off of you that you're doing
Speaker 3: absolutely nothing for the people of Gaza.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it turns out no, it transferred roughly five hundred
Speaker 1: sixty nine metric tons of aid into Gaza, but none
Speaker 1: of that aid had been delivered to Palestinians as of
Speaker 1: last week.
Speaker 2: Huh okay, okay, So.
Speaker 1: Still just like kind of figuring things out.
Speaker 3: It's such a fucking insult man, because there was another
Speaker 3: the IDF bombed another refugee camp, and we're just still
Speaker 3: doing these like like it's like an insult to even
Speaker 3: say band aid fixes like these are nothing.
Speaker 2: These is this is an insult.
Speaker 3: Because a lot of people also speculate, like, is that
Speaker 3: another point of exit for Palestinians to inevitably displace these
Speaker 3: people permanently, because we know that's what the aim is here,
Speaker 3: as much as they're like, we were going to destroy Hamas,
Speaker 3: which I don't know how that's possible. You're only radicalizing
Speaker 3: more people by the day. But yeah, okay, sure, the
Speaker 3: three hundred and twenty million dollars of who knows what
Speaker 3: that could have done in this country, Uh, went right
Speaker 3: to a thing that does absolutely nothing, Like yeah, and
Speaker 3: this has to be like a terrible l for like
Speaker 3: the military engineers who built this fucking thing or not.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, I don't know enough about Peers,
Speaker 1: but it's not a not a great look.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know about Peers, Morgan. Yeah, and my sucks,
Speaker 3: so maybe this peer is also not great. But again,
Speaker 3: this is just all this was all lip service during
Speaker 3: the State of the Union because this was you know,
Speaker 3: there's been a constant chorus of Joe Biden is doing
Speaker 3: absolutely nothing or are nothing meaningful to help these people,
Speaker 3: And that was the thing that all the pundits were like,
Speaker 3: he's building a peer, he's taking it seriously. And it's
Speaker 3: not only is it like not even operational at this point,
Speaker 3: but even the aid that was delivered they can't even
Speaker 3: confirm that any of it has actually reached Palestinians. So
Speaker 3: I failed to see how this is a win in
Speaker 3: any conceivable way. But yeah, let's continue.
Speaker 1: To appearance best having done something the appeer.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, and it's just a great metaphor for this
Speaker 3: entire like absolute just diplomatic fuck up from the United
Speaker 3: States is like you have you have, you have the
Speaker 3: ability to do actually something that is tangible, and you're like,
Speaker 3: what about a floppy pier that will break apart?
Speaker 1: They takers on this floppy pier. Nope. So there there's
Speaker 1: new research on peanut allergies. This is a question that
Speaker 1: has occurred to me as a parent. Is it seems
Speaker 1: like there are more peanut allergies today than there was
Speaker 1: when I was a kid. Back in the old days,
Speaker 1: peanut butter sandwich fights and schools were oh yeah, common
Speaker 1: as baseball and apple pie.
Speaker 2: Joe, I'm sure, isn't that anything Joe Biden said recently,
Speaker 2: Probably we set peanut butter sandwich fights all the time.
Speaker 1: Jack, That's right. And I heard him because I thought
Speaker 1: he was talking directly to me. But yeah, right now,
Speaker 1: the US has what's been described as an epidemic of
Speaker 1: peanut allergies. Between nineteen ninety seven and two thousand and eight,
Speaker 1: the number of American children with a peanut allergy has triple,
Speaker 1: and parents feeding children peanuts or peanut butter regularly between
Speaker 1: the ages of four months old and five years old
Speaker 1: is being touted as a potential like prevent it. Like
Speaker 1: they they think the problem is essentially not getting enough
Speaker 1: peanuts early enough.
Speaker 3: Right, I mean, as somebody who's got a little baby
Speaker 3: and going into that phase of like eating solid foods,
Speaker 3: and pediatricians like, yeah, man, you should, you should get
Speaker 3: this stuff that has all these allergens in it to
Speaker 3: introduce your child to them as quickly as possible to
Speaker 3: help counteract that. And I was like, oh, it's it
Speaker 3: was just because people were avoiding peanuts, because I remember
Speaker 3: I remember one kid, Corey, who had a peanut allergy
Speaker 3: at my school. It was one fucking kid I remember,
Speaker 3: And like that's how rare it was to now, you know,
Speaker 3: like at the daycare, and shit I go to they're like, yohen,
Speaker 3: there's a peanut free fucking zone. Yes, Like we can't
Speaker 3: even fuck around with things that you.
Speaker 1: Turn the corner to come here onto when you get
Speaker 1: on the street, you better not even think about peanuts
Speaker 1: or say the word peanut.
Speaker 2: It will get you fucked up out here.
Speaker 1: But yeah, so this new scientific study thinks that actually
Speaker 1: introducing peanuts can reduce the rate of people suffering from
Speaker 1: a peanut allergy by a staggering seventy one percent. So two,
Speaker 1: but what's really good?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna say, Jack, what's really fucking going
Speaker 2: on here?
Speaker 1: Yeah? So, where where are these coming from? Is it
Speaker 1: all of the microplastics center scrotum entire possible impossible to
Speaker 1: impossible to know one thing that one of the most
Speaker 1: popular theories in America is of course, that it is
Speaker 1: caused by vaccines, which I don't even understand, Like it's
Speaker 1: not even first of all, like vaccines didn't start in
Speaker 1: the last twenty thirty years, like vaccines have been around.
Speaker 1: So there's this one book that is like it's called
Speaker 1: the Peanut Allergy Epidemic. It's the cover is blood red.
Speaker 1: There is a giant needle on the front cover image,
Speaker 1: and uh, there is it. It's believed by Uh. I
Speaker 1: don't know one of the people who's running for president,
Speaker 1: r FK Junior. So uh. In the nineties, RFK Junior
Speaker 1: started the Food Allergy Initiative because his son has a
Speaker 1: peanut allergy and he was arguing that certain allergies were
Speaker 1: caused by vaccines. He wrote a forward to the book
Speaker 1: on the book theory that peanut oil is used in
Speaker 1: vaccines and like that's what's causing It stems from two
Speaker 1: New York Times articles from the nineteen sixties that noted
Speaker 1: that peanut oil was being tested in flu vaccines.
Speaker 2: There it is, there it is, so we found it.
Speaker 1: Like the amount of fucking research these idiots are doing
Speaker 1: to find this one reference to peanuts and vaccines. The
Speaker 1: trials were immediate failures and no peanut oil based edge events,
Speaker 1: which is like what they were testing it as in
Speaker 1: flu vaccines were quote ever used in human vaccines. Ah shit,
Speaker 1: but that's not that's what they want you to think. Yeah.
Speaker 1: When the author of the book was pressed on this
Speaker 1: point by Snopes for an article debunking the theory, she
Speaker 1: had to admit that she had quote no evidence that
Speaker 1: peanut oil had ever been used in childhood vacuums.
Speaker 3: Oh, that is such an l to have to say
Speaker 3: that out loud. Then it's like, oh, then you're talking.
Speaker 1: Shit right, completely full of shit.
Speaker 2: God no, well there's other things too.
Speaker 3: This is a thing with these but I mean, like
Speaker 3: I remember, like you know, you think about the whole
Speaker 3: MMR vaccine that everyone was like, that's the thing that's
Speaker 3: that's causing autism, is the MMR vaccine or whatever, and
Speaker 3: that got debunked so hard, to the point that the
Speaker 3: author himself.
Speaker 2: Was like, yeah, I was Look, I was working on
Speaker 2: my own.
Speaker 3: Vaccine that I was trying to compete with, so I
Speaker 3: had to talk some shit on the existing one to
Speaker 3: get my name out there.
Speaker 2: And when you point that out to anti vaxxers they still.
Speaker 3: Like yeah, but you see, it's like it's such a
Speaker 3: moving target that I'm sure that even these people when
Speaker 3: the person who wrote the book out loud to be like,
Speaker 3: there's actually no evidence to say that peanut oil was
Speaker 3: ever used in human vaccines, it's gonna be like, yeah,
Speaker 3: but you can, but you can imagine, right.
Speaker 1: This book is a novel, Okay, it's a cool to
Speaker 1: see novel, But so the more compelling theories. Nobody knows
Speaker 1: exactly why peanut allergies are going up, but more compelling
Speaker 1: theory that is widely accepted is that the world's improved
Speaker 1: sanitation basically leaves our It's kind of like the orca
Speaker 1: theory that we talked about yesterday. Why workers are attacking
Speaker 1: yachts is because there's like so much tuna in the
Speaker 1: sea that they're like, they don't need to spend as
Speaker 1: much time hunting tuna, so they're bored and just start
Speaker 1: attacking yachts for fun. In this case, our immune system
Speaker 1: like they're fewer germs because of increased cleanliness for your
Speaker 1: immune system to fight off, and so it just is
Speaker 1: like fu. Yeah, basically gets bored and starts attacking peanuts. Right.
Speaker 1: I have a loose theory that ties in with one
Speaker 1: of my overrated recent overrated oh because the thing that
Speaker 1: has changed over the past twenty years is peanut butter
Speaker 1: has gotten way shittier. That it's gone from being the
Speaker 1: easy to spread kind to the stir kind. Yeah. Sure,
Speaker 1: I'm just saying I ate way more peanut peanut butter
Speaker 1: when I was a kid than my kid, it was
Speaker 1: because yeah, because this shit is gloppy as fuck Galapagos
Speaker 1: islands in there.
Speaker 3: Okay, so you're saying it, Okay, so the peanut it's
Speaker 3: less appealing, less.
Speaker 1: Appealing peanut butter, less peanut butter consumption. I'm just saying
Speaker 1: that is my conspiracy theory as to what's going on here.
Speaker 1: I blame big stir peanut butter. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, the other theory that people say is because pediatric
Speaker 3: experts were recommending giving kids less algins or avoiding food
Speaker 3: allergens early in life, which is different because that someone
Speaker 3: who just had.
Speaker 2: A kid recently. All I'm hearing from pediatrician is like.
Speaker 3: Give them, man, yeah, yeah, and introduce them to allergens
Speaker 3: like real quick, like just as soon as you can,
Speaker 3: like soy and all that other stuff, obviously in case
Speaker 3: there isn't an allergy.
Speaker 2: That That was the fucking wildest part.
Speaker 3: I remember feeding the geist child some of this like
Speaker 3: allergen filled stuff. He's like, hey, make sure you observe them, yeah,
Speaker 3: because if there is an allergy, I'm like, what the fuck.
Speaker 3: I don't want to have.
Speaker 2: To be like on top of shit. When I gave
Speaker 2: him a little spoonful of oatmeal or some shit. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that shit is scary, but he's okay.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think that we need to just like
Speaker 1: start smoking around our kids again. That seems to be
Speaker 1: the smoke and not even watching them, just letting them
Speaker 1: play in the street. Yeah.
Speaker 3: At our house we use cigarettes like incense. We're not
Speaker 3: even smoking them. We like them and just leave them
Speaker 3: around the house.
Speaker 1: Leave. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what was that movie? Was it The Island?
Speaker 3: There's like, you know, it's like a Van Damn movie
Speaker 3: where he had to like escape that like island and
Speaker 3: he used a cigarette as a timer to see how
Speaker 3: long he could hold his breath. There's like a there's
Speaker 3: a scene where I think it's a Vandamn movie where
Speaker 3: he's training to hold his breath because he has to
Speaker 3: like swim underwater for a really long distance. So to train,
Speaker 3: he lights a cigarette and leaves it and like his
Speaker 3: progress is sort of determined by how much the.
Speaker 1: Salid how much is burnt down. Yeah, that's actually really
Speaker 1: fun and cinematic for a Van Damn movie. I kind
Speaker 1: of like that a lot. Yeah, very cool, very cool,
Speaker 1: Van Damn. It's not gonna be the first time I
Speaker 1: said that, And it's not gonna be the last. All right,
Speaker 1: those are some of the things that are trending on
Speaker 1: in the zeitgeist. It was double Team Rodman. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: a cinematic classic, cinematic.
Speaker 2: Classic with Dennis Rodman.
Speaker 1: Absolutely wow. Remember that back tomorrow with the whole aast
Speaker 1: episode of the show. Until then, be kind to each other,
Speaker 1: be kind to yourselves. Get the vaccine, get listen to
Speaker 1: these motherfuckers, Get all your vaccines, get all your flu shots.
Speaker 1: Don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we will talk
Speaker 1: you out tomorrow. Bye bye,
