Speaker 1: like two weeks ago.
Speaker 3: You never here's here's why I keep doing it, and
Speaker 3: it's it's it's you give a dog a cookie. It'll
Speaker 3: keep coming back. Where once I went to Trader Joe's
Speaker 3: lost the real ticket to get out of the parking lot.
Speaker 3: Used an old ticket from months before, one of the
Speaker 3: many that I just have in my door, and I
Speaker 3: put it in enough times that the thing was just
Speaker 3: like just let them out, and it's just the thing
Speaker 3: opened so nine years ago and now I still hold
Speaker 3: all them my car constantly.
Speaker 2: Yeah you can do that though, sometimes you can. You
Speaker 2: can just hit the button, be like sorry, it won't
Speaker 2: let me out, and hold up the old thing and
Speaker 2: they'll be like, all right, we feel sorry for you.
Speaker 1: Mine is like I wish there was something practical. I
Speaker 1: think it's left over stress from when my dad got
Speaker 1: audited in nineteen ninety four, and oh my god, like
Speaker 1: it basically destroyed my family because he was like, I
Speaker 1: gotta find all his paper because and nothing was digital
Speaker 1: and shit and it was like all these boxes. I
Speaker 1: remember being so hot in the garage trying to help
Speaker 1: my dad find shit. And it was like I was like,
Speaker 1: you guess I got to keep your paperwork, got to
Speaker 1: have your paperwork. Paperwork. But I'm like keeping paperwork, like
Speaker 1: for again, a trader Joe's bag, salad or some shit.
Speaker 1: Uh help me, Oh my god, it's some hoarders. The
Speaker 1: parking Authority's gonna audit you and you'll be ready. Yeah anyway,
Speaker 1: yeah man, here we are. Anyways, here we are.
Speaker 2: We are a group of mentally ill middle aged men.
Speaker 1: On our way out. Oh but you know what's wild.
Speaker 1: Shot on my niece, who's uh sick or seven we're
Speaker 1: about to turn seven. She fucking loves receipts.
Speaker 2: M hm oh really as there's a lot of data
Speaker 2: on there.
Speaker 1: I know she's like you looking at it. It's so
Speaker 1: wild because my brother in law was like, hey, if
Speaker 1: you got receipts, man, she'll take them. And I was like,
Speaker 1: what for real? Its a joke and she dude's gonna
Speaker 1: have to pay for him. Yo, the CVS one. She's like,
Speaker 1: oh fuck yeah, look at this motherfucker right here. I
Speaker 1: think it helps you feel like you're buying shit or
Speaker 1: something like as a kid, you're like, oh, yeah, I
Speaker 1: feel powerful. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2: The CBS receipt is the It's the moby dick of receipts.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: That's why everyone just takes things and walks out. Yeah,
Speaker 3: because of the receipt do you and pharmacies bad?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 3: But I didn't use the right grammar. There is CBS
Speaker 3: and pharmacy is bad in Los Angeles. Also because there's
Speaker 3: nothing in Philadelphia. My question I am I infer this
Speaker 3: is that Philadelphia there's nothing on the shelves, like they
Speaker 3: stopped trying to stop people from stealing, so there's just
Speaker 3: nothing on the shelves at any CBS or right eight
Speaker 3: in Philadelphia, like they have no inventory of any In Boston.
Speaker 3: It's the same way, like, but I was wondering if
Speaker 3: it's the same way and LA anecdotally.
Speaker 1: No, I've noticed increasingly just everything's behind plastic. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that's why. Yeah, they have the big plastic boxes,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, for fucking eye drops for real. I'm like, Bro,
Speaker 1: my eyes are just okay. Sorry? Can I get a
Speaker 1: manager to give me fucking regular ass eye drops?
Speaker 3: These things are infected? Yes, look at these things the
Speaker 3: fuck over.
Speaker 1: Help me. I can't even see, bro, I can't even
Speaker 1: open my eyes. Help me.
Speaker 2: So everything in the at the Philly ones is just
Speaker 2: like behind the counter.
Speaker 3: Or there's anything there actually is not there's It sounds
Speaker 3: like I'm being hyperbolic at which I never do, but
Speaker 3: I am being dead. There is just nothing on the shelves,
Speaker 3: so they've been closing. I read a story that was
Speaker 3: happening nationally, but I was wondering if it was one
Speaker 3: of these stories where people are just complaining about cities
Speaker 3: and it's not a real, actual thing. But it is
Speaker 3: real in Philly, and it's the same thing in Boston
Speaker 3: I've heard as well. But I guess LA New York
Speaker 3: seems like they have a good hand.
Speaker 1: Are they trying to do? Like is it because like
Speaker 1: the mentality is like, well, if you guys are gonna steal,
Speaker 1: then you can't even have anything. Then like that sort
Speaker 1: of the attitude doesn't sound it seems hospitable.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, No, they've been closing a lot of stores
Speaker 3: have been closing at like a very high rate apparently.
Speaker 3: So I don't know if it was a thing of like, hey,
Speaker 3: let's just trust that the people won't steal, right, but
Speaker 3: we're stealing.
Speaker 1: It's so while because we were just talking about this
Speaker 1: story how Target was crying crime wave as they closed
Speaker 1: stores in New York and San Francisco, and then the
Speaker 1: data was like, well, these aren't even the stores that
Speaker 1: are getting stolen from the most like, and also the
Speaker 1: numbers you're claiming it's affecting, like aren't really adding up
Speaker 1: for you to say you have to close a store,
Speaker 1: which which again always feels like the you know, retail
Speaker 1: lobbying efforts to be like we need more cops, I
Speaker 1: want more cop money.
Speaker 3: That's what it does seem. There is some sort of
Speaker 3: direct line between nothing being on the shelves and a
Speaker 3: CVS and then somehow also giving cop Well why wouldn't right,
Speaker 3: you know, No, that's what I mean.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you didn't know any better, you'd go in
Speaker 1: there and you'd be like, what the fuck's going on?
Speaker 1: Oh my god? I went to CVS and the theft
Speaker 1: is so rampant that there is we need law and order.
Speaker 1: And I wonder is it because Krasner is still the
Speaker 1: DA over there?
Speaker 3: Oh, no, idea, he might be.
Speaker 1: He might be.
Speaker 5: I voted for him, I think. Yeah, all very scientist. Yeah,
Speaker 5: this is all very like. Hey, is he still crashing
Speaker 5: over there because they.
Speaker 1: Don't like him?
Speaker 2: They don't like him the cops. All right, Blake, We're
Speaker 2: gonna get to know you a little bit better in
Speaker 2: a moment. First, we're going to tell our listeners a
Speaker 2: couple of the things that we're talking about today. A
Speaker 2: Democrat is finally calling for a cease file. Oh wait,
Speaker 2: not not really. Senator Dick Durbin accidentally seemed to call
Speaker 2: for a ceasefire and then.
Speaker 1: Walked it back.
Speaker 2: But we'll we'll talk about just generally, you know, Biden
Speaker 2: ignoring the slutter and Gaza and where where we're at
Speaker 2: with regards to his polling and the presidential race. Airbnb
Speaker 2: is that there's just like a steady drumbeat of Airbnb
Speaker 2: horror stories. So we'll look at that. We'll look at
Speaker 2: De Giorno making a Thanksgiving pizza. For some reason, Seattle
Speaker 2: has come up with a wacky new policy where the
Speaker 2: police aren't allowed to lie, all right for some reason.
Speaker 1: Well, I hope you guys like empty pharmacies. That's true.
Speaker 6: If that police can't lie, enjoy that, Seattle.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you're gonna have to go to the try
Speaker 1: cities to get your affer in. Now. That's good luck
Speaker 1: finding a single use umbrella, Seattle, single.
Speaker 2: Disposable umbrella. Yeah, it's actually not waterproof.
Speaker 1: Gets what it's about fifty minutes of water resistance before
Speaker 1: it absolutely just goes hollow on you made of newspaper,
Speaker 1: right right, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Before we get to any of it, Blake, We do,
Speaker 2: of course like to ask our guests, even you, what
Speaker 2: is something from your search history?
Speaker 3: Swordfish internal temperature. I am trying to eat more of the.
Speaker 2: Six swordfish temperature page temperature, Okay, open up.
Speaker 3: His nose was running, which has been a massive pain
Speaker 3: in the ass because it is a huge nose that
Speaker 3: that thing has.
Speaker 1: No Yeah, it's one of the biggest of those. I
Speaker 1: was impalled fourteen times last year.
Speaker 3: He keeps sticking me, that little son of a bitch,
Speaker 3: and all I do, I'm just trying to care for
Speaker 3: him these and it's also you know, the sea, their
Speaker 3: temperatures are rising. Therefore, my swordfishes temperatures are rising, and
Speaker 3: so of course fish their temperatures rising. Yeah, the sword
Speaker 3: fish are trying.
Speaker 1: To fund the police control.
Speaker 3: And you know ninety percent of your money that you
Speaker 3: pay for swordfish at Whole Foods does go to the
Speaker 3: Fraternal Order of Police and that's and that's just facts. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and I do demand the sword. Also when they hand
Speaker 3: me like, yes, you were sword, I'm like what, I
Speaker 3: start looking.
Speaker 1: Okay, I got where is it? Yeah, the butcher has
Speaker 1: it in his belt in a sheath.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I'm trying to eat more like fish steaks
Speaker 3: and it's new to me and like it's a swordfish steak.
Speaker 3: So I wasn't aware, by the way, I know a
Speaker 3: lot of people know this. This is very new to me,
Speaker 3: where that like a steak, like a beef steak, you
Speaker 3: can cook swordfish to different temperatures. So and just in
Speaker 3: my mind, I'm like, oh, can you do that with
Speaker 3: all meat or can you get violently my biggest spear
Speaker 3: in the world, just getting violently ill eating from eating food,
Speaker 3: that's fair, Yeah, thank you. So I'm eating undercooked raw meats.
Speaker 3: Someone told me that you can get sick from doing
Speaker 3: it and I believe it was pat Yeah, it was
Speaker 3: Patty pathogens. And she told me, yeah, I believe it's
Speaker 3: one thirty one thirty five, which is like more medium rare,
Speaker 3: and then I mean above that, it just becomes like
Speaker 3: a brick. But that's what I was looking sword for. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and it's good.
Speaker 2: I was not aware because Yeah, every piece of swordfish
Speaker 2: I've ever had is tastes like and I'm not don't
Speaker 2: don't think that I only have one reference to make,
Speaker 2: but it tastes like I'm cutting into a chalkboardy race, I.
Speaker 4: Keep talking about cho I'm sorry, did you get a.
Speaker 1: Trouble a lot detention in school? Like it just keeps
Speaker 1: coming that I'll show them one day what air grow up? Yeah,
Speaker 1: the but they yeah, they're always so dry. I did.
Speaker 2: I did not realize that that was because I was
Speaker 2: just like drilling it to like extra.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, which still can be good. Wait, Blake, You're like,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to eat more like steaks that are like fish.
Speaker 1: You like that sort of sounded like you're a guy
Speaker 1: who can only eat like beef steaks And You're like,
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's another there's a fish steak.
Speaker 1: Then I'll try it. Now, give you that a one sauce, like.
Speaker 3: I just have no no perspective, or I've never traveled steaks.
Speaker 3: It's just a say I go to the movies, I
Speaker 3: order popcorn steak. No, just make it could gield to
Speaker 3: one thing. I can't have multiple things. Pasta steak ozangna
Speaker 3: is like pasta steak? Yeah, pasta yes?
Speaker 1: Wait then what's it? Okay, we don't have to. We
Speaker 1: don't have to. We don't have to explore that. We
Speaker 1: could take this on, is it though? No poke holes holes, No,
Speaker 1: I won't not like you're not while.
Speaker 2: To do some diagramming and then we'll come back with
Speaker 2: two questions at the end.
Speaker 1: That's perfect. Yeah, hey Blake.
Speaker 2: Why don't you tell us something that you think is overrated?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Fact, I had here written down the heat, and I'm like,
Speaker 3: is are we talking about pat Riley? But of course not,
Speaker 3: I'm talking about the heat in your house where I
Speaker 3: for years thought that heat cost about four dollars and
Speaker 3: fifty cents per minute to run. So I was like,
Speaker 3: in gas money on your gas bill. So and I
Speaker 3: lived in la for forever, so I would never I
Speaker 3: would be like let's just throw on sweatshirts or coat.
Speaker 3: And then I started living with my now wife, and
Speaker 3: she was like, this isn't the right way to live,
Speaker 3: and so then I started turning it on. You're also
Speaker 3: living on the East coast in it was clay degrees
Speaker 3: this morning.
Speaker 1: Different temperatures. Yeah, correct.
Speaker 3: And when we turn it on, if you haven't used
Speaker 3: the heat in a while, there's generally a lot of
Speaker 3: like dust and I don't know, mouse bones and there,
Speaker 3: and I'm allergic to some of that.
Speaker 1: So allergic to mouth.
Speaker 3: I don't it's not mice is a full you know,
Speaker 3: out of the garage mouse, it's fine, but it's bone.
Speaker 2: Smoked a whole mouse this morning.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we came.
Speaker 3: Right off the bone, had a full mouse. And yeah, no,
Speaker 3: it generally gives me allergies. So I just think it's over.
Speaker 3: I like to bundle up. I prefer a blanket and
Speaker 3: like a nice comfy hoodie in home. Yeah I do.
Speaker 3: And which yeah, and I'm right. I was about to say,
Speaker 3: I realized that's strange. It's not strange, it's blake.
Speaker 1: Will you do me a favor, go ahead right now,
Speaker 1: will you wait? Yeah, I'm right, Okay, is the heat
Speaker 1: on right now at your place. No, No, it can't be.
Speaker 1: And you said it was thirty degrees this morning. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but it's gone up to about forty nine. Okay, will
Speaker 1: you touch the tip of your nose and tell me
Speaker 1: if that's warm or cold right now? I can't feel it.
Speaker 1: I can't even tell it. It's broke off. Yeah. Fuck,
Speaker 1: that's like snowman. That's always when I know the house
Speaker 1: is too cold is when the tip of my nose
Speaker 1: gets cold. I'm like, no, I mean, I don't need
Speaker 1: to have all this shit on, but yeah, it's funny.
Speaker 1: Is someone who loves to wear like warm, like cold
Speaker 1: weather clothing just for some reason. I get in my house,
Speaker 1: I'm like, do I need to wear a parka on
Speaker 1: my couch? I don't know.
Speaker 3: But when I was a kid, we I but we
Speaker 3: grew up like never wanted for anything, you know, grew
Speaker 3: up my dad had a good job. And I'm saying
Speaker 3: this because of what I'm about to say.
Speaker 1: We take those silver spoons out of your mouth real quick.
Speaker 1: I can't hear you. I can't.
Speaker 3: They're actually welded to my teeth. My teeth instead of fillings,
Speaker 3: i'd have silver swims. Melted down formed the bowlers, and
Speaker 3: we just I slept like in the a converted attic
Speaker 3: which had air conditioning but no heat. So when I
Speaker 3: would come home from college, win or break, I would
Speaker 3: sleep in a coat. You know what, That's probably why
Speaker 3: I don't give a shit about heat, because I did
Speaker 3: it when I was young. I was able to sleep
Speaker 3: in a coat. Why can't the woman I love more
Speaker 3: than anything on earth I suffer along with me?
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, she'll finger. Didn't tell many people about you, huh.
Speaker 1: It just kind of kept you up in that attic. No, no,
Speaker 1: it was.
Speaker 3: They wouldn't come up until my plates started piling up
Speaker 3: outside the door and feed me. Yeah, the little sloths.
Speaker 1: Or if we had company over and they would blindfold
Speaker 1: me and give me my happy juice. Yes, yes.
Speaker 3: And I met the broom once, the broom that they
Speaker 3: used to hit the ceiling and say, sorry, we have
Speaker 3: rats every time I'd sneeze or something.
Speaker 2: We have rats, I said, The mice bones are rattling
Speaker 2: again up there.
Speaker 1: Hence you who turned on the heat.
Speaker 2: You got allergic to mice bondes because they were your
Speaker 2: only friends for so long.
Speaker 3: But they were they were They were also from a physiological.
Speaker 1: No, it does in the mental state.
Speaker 3: And also if i'd like break a bone trying to escape,
Speaker 3: I would make a splint out of their bones.
Speaker 2: Yeah too weird, just bone supporting bones.
Speaker 1: Why not man bone sometimes together? You know? Thank you?
Speaker 1: Mm hm exactly. Let's take a quick break and we'll
Speaker 1: come back and hear what you think is underrated. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back.
Speaker 2: And we're back and blake. You know, we like to
Speaker 2: ask our guests, what is that? Do you think it's underrated?

Speaker 1: At least someone the more mainstream, the progressive in the
Speaker 1: main Yeah.
Speaker 2: But he was just asked on CNN if if it
Speaker 2: was time for a ceasefire, and he responded, I think
Speaker 2: it is, and.
Speaker 1: Was like, oh really shit, yes, fuck yeah.
Speaker 2: But it only seems like a big deal because Biden
Speaker 2: won't use any stronger language than the word pause, which
Speaker 2: of course implies zum, it's going to keep going afterwards, Yeah,
Speaker 2: not stop, a brief pause followed immediately by resumption. I
Speaker 2: like this quote from The Hill where Biden on Wednesday
Speaker 2: suggested a pause and fighting was needed to get the
Speaker 2: prisoners out in response to a heckler who asked him
Speaker 2: to call for a ceasefire. So that's how hard the
Speaker 2: mainstream media is hitting it that, like a heckler has
Speaker 2: to intervene to get him to comment on this because
Speaker 2: the mainstream media. She said a clip of like, what's like.
Speaker 1: Are they are they actually referring to the rabbi who
Speaker 1: yelled at who like interrupted him, Because that's a little wild.
Speaker 1: That's because I know there's a rabbi like definitely inner
Speaker 1: and got and was like calling for a seastfire, and
Speaker 1: that is so wild that they would just reducing this
Speaker 1: like toler.
Speaker 2: Wow, anti semitic heckler.
Speaker 1: Yeah, wasn't a rabbi. Yeah he was overserved.
Speaker 2: Yeah, bottom, some drunk wandered in off the street.
Speaker 1: Dude. You gotta see his shorts on YouTube. I love it.
Speaker 1: It went viral.
Speaker 2: But yeah, then Durban basically walked it back, clarifying that
Speaker 2: he only believes in a ceasefire in certain circumstances, such
Speaker 2: as the release of those who have been kidnapped and an
Speaker 2: indication that this is a good faith effort on the
Speaker 2: part of the other side, which just it sounds like
Speaker 2: he's just like wandering off muttering to himself at the
Speaker 2: end of that statement and yeah, good faith on both
Speaker 2: side and the other side and so forth and so on.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, when I mean people are saying, when body
Speaker 1: of water, when will the Palestinian airstrike stop? You know,
Speaker 1: when when will Palestine stop with their like a NonStop bombardment.
Speaker 1: But yeah, okay, Dick derb cool cool, cool, like yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think so all right, let me just move on.
Speaker 1: Is that just enumb.
Speaker 2: Finally we have a leader on the progressive side?
Speaker 1: I think, I think yes, yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 2: Think any encouraging maybe yes, perhaps, yeah, But it's just
Speaker 2: I don't know, a lot of people are pointing to
Speaker 2: the fact that Biden's numbers are cratering, but also like
Speaker 2: he he doesn't seem to be changing his tune very
Speaker 2: much in response to that creating, possibly because RFK Junior
Speaker 2: taking so much of of the Republican vote, or you know,
Speaker 2: in some polling, people think that he's going to make
Speaker 2: it so that Biden can still squeak out a victory
Speaker 2: against Trump because so many of the mega people are
Speaker 2: anti vaxers, and Trump did vaccine. He did the vaccine,
Speaker 2: did the vaccine, So he made it. I'm gonna start
Speaker 2: using some dark arts ship in this election and just
Speaker 2: be like, Trump's a vaxer man. He's in league with Fauci,
Speaker 2: don't you know.
Speaker 6: Whatever it takes. You know, he committed a vaccine. He
Speaker 6: committed the vaccine.
Speaker 1: The multi exact, he violated my vaccine. Right. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean this is like, this is kind of the
Speaker 1: thing with the with the Democrats, right there, there's always
Speaker 1: something that helps them not follow through on the things
Speaker 1: they promise voters, right And because and like the mag
Speaker 1: We've said this all the time, the MAGA phase of
Speaker 1: the GUP has been a fucking blessing to Democrats, because
Speaker 1: we said, their whole platform is just saying, well, we're
Speaker 1: not them at least now give us vote. Okay, we're
Speaker 1: not them, We're just just we dress better. And we
Speaker 1: used actual words from the dictionary consistently most of the time.
Speaker 1: And like you said, yeah, the polling's been like really
Speaker 1: going downhill with younger voters and Arab Americans. And this
Speaker 1: isn't an this is not an insignificant number of voters.
Speaker 1: Like young young voters have especially helped Joe Biden and
Speaker 1: the Democrats claim numerous victories over the last couple of cycles.
Speaker 1: And like, you know, you're like, well, what can he
Speaker 1: do to stop this besides actually stopping the siege? Is
Speaker 1: there anything else Joe Biden could possibly do without listening
Speaker 1: to the numerous pleas of many people in the country.
Speaker 1: And around the world. He recently touted like an office
Speaker 1: that would look into like in Islamophobia in America. But
Speaker 1: considering the rhetoric that's coming out of the White House,
Speaker 1: it feels very Kente cloth in the rotunda in the
Speaker 1: summer of twenty twenty, aka just an optics play, like
Speaker 1: no substance behind it, Like why don't you listen to
Speaker 1: the people who are telling you if you're so concerned
Speaker 1: with islamophobia, let's actually let's wrestle with that and look that,
Speaker 1: look at that through the lens of American foreign policy,
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, yeah, here's the thing that check out
Speaker 1: this PDF.
Speaker 2: And now RFK we're gonna first thing we're going to
Speaker 2: look into is what does it mean?
Speaker 1: What is it Islamophobia? Yeah? Is that even a thing?
Speaker 1: And who does that a word that you guys just
Speaker 1: made up? I don't know, I don't know. We'll see
Speaker 1: and you know, like with RFK, some polls say that
Speaker 1: it could open up a three point gap. Others are
Speaker 1: saying it could be a seven point gap, because that's
Speaker 1: how much RFK Junior could siphon off from the Republicans.
Speaker 1: But obviously these are just like snapshots in time they're
Speaker 1: no way are going to ultimately reflect the final outcomes
Speaker 1: since it's so early. But this is the kind of
Speaker 1: shit that helps Democrats think they can get away with
Speaker 1: like their mirage, like campaigning tactics, or they're like, well, hey,
Speaker 1: I mean even even if we're losing Arab American support
Speaker 1: and a huge chunk of younger voters. This if RFK enters,
Speaker 1: that's going to eat in. That could open up a
Speaker 1: seven point gap. Maybe that's going to be And right
Speaker 1: now I feel like we're getting even more talk about
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson, who is the new speaker, and he's getting
Speaker 1: a lot of coverage and rightly so, he has a
Speaker 1: lot of power. He is violently homophobic, He is like
Speaker 1: anti choice. Recently is revealed he has no bank accounts,
Speaker 1: like when he's looking at his financial disclosure.
Speaker 2: That's just smart, Miles, this guy's just smart. Where Yeah,
Speaker 2: well you're gonna lend it to the bank where you
Speaker 2: can't even see it when he comes on extra oven
Speaker 2: that is plugged in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, thank you. Surprise, surprise, Now I'm talking to
Speaker 1: a smart person. Yeah. Surprisingly, the guy with all the
Speaker 1: receipts believes in bank accounts though, uh, how but like,
Speaker 1: like a lot of people are saying like, either this
Speaker 1: guy is hiding ship and trying to be deceptive, or
Speaker 1: they're like they are hiding a child like Johnson. That's
Speaker 1: another one too, where they said he had a shady
Speaker 1: adopted kid that I'm not going to cast his persons
Speaker 1: quite yet. I'm gonna look into that a little bit more.
Speaker 1: But he has like a Matt Gates type. I adopted
Speaker 1: this person like many years ago, and I'm like, who
Speaker 1: is this anyway? It could also mean that he's just
Speaker 1: terrible with his money. Also, because he's in a lot
Speaker 1: of debt. It looks like so who knows, but a
Speaker 1: lot of the cover of a bank account. Yeah, truly,
Speaker 1: they're like, bro, what are you doing? He's like, are
Speaker 1: you where do you put it? I can answer your questions.
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Yea, what is a bank account?
Speaker 1: What is that? Do you want me to Yeah? I
Speaker 1: don't know. But like the like a lot of the
Speaker 1: coverage and discussion, especially with Mike Johnson, is in the
Speaker 1: context of these people are so fucking craven they should
Speaker 1: not be in power. This is what's gonna happen if
Speaker 1: you don't support Joe Biden, And again we understand, I
Speaker 1: understand what you're saying. These are the people that are
Speaker 1: also running for office or trying to ultimately control the government.
Speaker 1: But it excuses the lack of conviction, especially the Democratic
Speaker 1: Party has when it comes to its own commitment to
Speaker 1: progressive reform and it at this point, how are you
Speaker 1: gonna blame people for feeling like it's all bullshit? Like
Speaker 1: you're getting hammered into people. Oh, don't talk about don't
Speaker 1: Why are you tearing down Biden? Like why aren't you
Speaker 1: saying the economy is good? Because if you don't, they're like,
Speaker 1: if you don't put your values aside to keep the
Speaker 1: status quo, you are bad. And it's you know who's
Speaker 1: not bad. It's not the people that have the power
Speaker 1: to materially change this shit. It's you, and it's it's giving.
Speaker 1: It's the same dynamic that is used to frame consumers
Speaker 1: as the drivers of climate change and not governors or
Speaker 1: governments and multinational corporations. Like it's like, who's I'm sorry
Speaker 1: you are, Yeah, you got the mandate, you're in office,
Speaker 1: and now you're gonna be like, well, I don't know,
Speaker 1: can you do this? Can you? No? No? And I
Speaker 1: think that's like a huge I think we're at a
Speaker 1: really interesting crossroads right now because, like we were saying,
Speaker 1: I think in yesterday's episode, this dusty propaganda playbook is
Speaker 1: not working like it used to and talking about the
Speaker 1: economy and like the macro economic sense isn't good enough
Speaker 1: for people, especially people who are coming of age, entering
Speaker 1: the workforce and have their own dreams of you know,
Speaker 1: being able to afford a place to live, I mean,
Speaker 1: let alone home ownership, but all these other things. So yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's very like they have a lot of easy
Speaker 1: out to sort of obscure the lack of real shit
Speaker 1: that has been going on, lack of real progress that's
Speaker 1: being made, at least the shit that was promised to
Speaker 1: people on the campaign trail. Right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And again it's there's always this tone that like
Speaker 2: you're being childish if you are idealistic or put pushing
Speaker 2: back and just being like that it's the childish thing
Speaker 2: to not just like play political hardball unlessen to the
Speaker 2: political theorists about what we should be you know, what's
Speaker 2: what's the smart saye like by the books thing to
Speaker 2: be doing. It's like, yeah, but you're using that you're
Speaker 2: weaponizing that logic, which has made sense, does make sense.
Speaker 2: Nobody wants Trump to be the president, but you're using
Speaker 2: that logic weaponizing it against us. So that's on you.
Speaker 2: That's on you. For like, if if Biden doesn't get
Speaker 2: nominated because you keep weaponizing the shit, then like that's
Speaker 2: on you. That's that's just how politics work.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like the same base like with cops, right,
Speaker 1: you're like, what's your track record again? Oh? Wow? Not great?
Speaker 1: And what now? What is this now? You you need
Speaker 1: more money? And with like with the Democrats, like how
Speaker 1: long have you had to codify Roe v? Wade? How long?
Speaker 1: But you decided to fucking play you want to play
Speaker 1: keep away hot potato with it, and people's lives are
Speaker 1: hanging in the balance, and at a certain point you
Speaker 1: have to be like, that's that is actually the craven shit,
Speaker 1: not me saying I'm I'm envisioning a better way for
Speaker 1: things to operate or for people to have a some
Speaker 1: better semblance of a of a positive looking life. So ah,
Speaker 1: you know this is I think this is just gonna continue,
Speaker 1: like with Democrats and consultants kind of scratching their heads
Speaker 1: as like polling goes down, like, but the economy did
Speaker 1: they see that the GDP went up? I'm sorry, Yeah,
Speaker 1: how can you sell that to somebody? Can you sell
Speaker 1: that to somebody who is living in poverty or is
Speaker 1: like you know, like someone who's like classified as like
Speaker 1: the working unhoused, because we have plenty of people like that.
Speaker 1: I think they give a fuck about that. It's not
Speaker 1: going to move the needle. And I so everyone speaking
Speaker 1: different sort of languages to try and argue against or
Speaker 1: for a certain candidate, but like they're really missing the
Speaker 1: essential truths that people are experiencing and witnessing on their
Speaker 1: day to day lives.
Speaker 2: Right, which is what a lot of those essential truths
Speaker 2: are the thing that is like powering the mega movement
Speaker 2: in the first place. Yeah, you know, like that's not
Speaker 2: coming from nowhere. The fact that this racism and like
Speaker 2: you know, escapism is so popular is not coming from nowhere.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but hey, the GDP would up.
Speaker 3: No, the GDP, which we can all have a firm
Speaker 3: grasp on. It affects us in our daily life. Whenever
Speaker 3: I walk down the street, the GDP is holding my
Speaker 3: hand front. Not ancient romes, I no, not at all.
Speaker 3: I think it's such a good point about the Maga
Speaker 3: movement being such a gift to Democrats, where we can
Speaker 3: as Democrats keep looking well, if you don't vote for us,
Speaker 3: it's so much worse over there, and like cartoonish, like
Speaker 3: it is a cartoon of how bad it could be.
Speaker 3: But once that movement starts to subside, now we're just
Speaker 3: kind of stuck with not fulfilling on these promises, and
Speaker 3: people will start jumping from It's like, well, you know,
Speaker 3: the Maga made the Republicans look cartoonishly bad. Now they
Speaker 3: just look bad. But Democrats haven't been helping us either,
Speaker 3: so this is gonna get worse. I think once there's
Speaker 3: like the big bad wolf of Maga goes away where
Speaker 3: you can't they'll have Democrats won't have anything to point
Speaker 3: at that's as cartoonish that subside, So you have to
Speaker 3: have a foundation of being helpful and being truthful and
Speaker 3: benefiting your voters at some point.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But I think it's also we see this across
Speaker 1: the world, even in you know, the situations we're currently
Speaker 1: speaking about around the globe, where sometimes it benefits you
Speaker 1: to have people so craven or the appearing so extreme
Speaker 1: to help you kind of be like, that's actually good
Speaker 1: for me, Like, so I don't I'm not really trying
Speaker 1: to get rid of that. It's actually good that they're
Speaker 1: there because we can kind of maintain this course of act,
Speaker 1: like this course we're on, and not have to do
Speaker 1: too much and then just raise the specter of right
Speaker 1: wing extremism to get people to fall in line, because
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, we're still seeing police
Speaker 1: indiscriminately kill people in the streets. We're still seeing the
Speaker 1: economy not working for working people. It's only because of
Speaker 1: working people taking up for themselves that we're seeing things happen.
Speaker 1: So I get when people like, but he's the most
Speaker 1: pro union president ever, It's like he wasn't. He wasn't
Speaker 1: organizing the auto workers, he wasn't organizing the Starbucks, he
Speaker 1: was not organizing Amazon work. He's not the one doing
Speaker 1: I get that the the environment might be more positive
Speaker 1: in that sense, but that work is being done by
Speaker 1: the people on the ground. So you know, you got
Speaker 1: you got a lot. You got a lot to work on. Democrats,
Speaker 1: if you're going to continue to be like, you gotta
Speaker 1: vote for us, because shit is still really bad for people,
Speaker 1: and without something that resembles that. I mean, like, but again,
Speaker 1: I think this is it's sort of it's definitely a
Speaker 1: bit of a fantasy to think that the Democratic Party
Speaker 1: as it is is ever going to do anything different.
Speaker 1: And I think that's why we always end up coming
Speaker 1: to the place of, well, that's why there needs to
Speaker 1: be some sort of political realignment in this country that
Speaker 1: is able to siphon away some of the power from
Speaker 1: the main parties and actually give people some other option, because,
Speaker 1: like we said earlier, like between Donald Trump and Joe Biden,
Speaker 1: you're still going to get indiscriminate bombing of people in Palestine.
Speaker 1: It's just like, at what speed are you getting it?
Speaker 1: And that to me, those aren't those those aren't real
Speaker 1: options if that's something that's front of mind for you.
Speaker 1: And I think it's really fucked up to browbeat somebody
Speaker 1: be like, well, oh, okay, I'm sorry that you have
Speaker 1: a problem with all these these people getting killed with
Speaker 1: our munitions. But but but Donald Trump, like, that's that's
Speaker 1: not that's not moving the needle.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know that it's going I don't know
Speaker 2: the maggot things going to subside. Also like that it
Speaker 2: doesn't seem like, yeah, the country, the support is moving
Speaker 2: in the right direction, like our our third party candidate
Speaker 2: that is everyone's like, oh thank god, this guy camera
Speaker 2: is an anti vaxer who like is like, you know,
Speaker 2: appealing to people who don't who want support science. Like
Speaker 2: that things are not moving in the right direction. And also,
Speaker 2: like we we talked at the very beginning of like
Speaker 2: this show, we were talking about how but when Trump
Speaker 2: first came to office and that like it was new people,
Speaker 2: you know, everyone's breathlessly covering it and it was shocking
Speaker 2: that like somebody who says the things he says and
Speaker 2: is as racist as he is, like could come to power.
Speaker 2: But now we're at a point where it feels like
Speaker 2: people are just kind of like they accept it that
Speaker 2: that's a thing, and it's let like people are now
Speaker 2: sliding back into a world where it's like yeah, and
Speaker 2: also this other party is actively fucking us. And so
Speaker 2: you know that that's what happened with the Nazi Party,
Speaker 2: like that they were around and very unpopular for a decade,
Speaker 2: and like people think about that story and think it's
Speaker 2: like this quick swift rise to power, but it wasn't.
Speaker 2: They were around, They were popular when they first came
Speaker 2: to power, they or when they first like became a
Speaker 2: thing and started like beating people up on the streets
Speaker 2: and you know, being incredibly offensive and anti semitic in
Speaker 2: like on main they were front page news, and then
Speaker 2: by the time they rose to power, the people were
Speaker 2: just like, yeah, there walked into it. We know about them. Yeah,
Speaker 2: people just slept walking into it. So I think there's
Speaker 2: a real danger that these dynamics that the Democratic Party
Speaker 2: are counting on, whether there is like some crisis that
Speaker 2: suddenly makes like the populace like want to shift right
Speaker 2: word because of like a terror attack or something like that,
Speaker 2: or whether it's just like sleepwalking into it. Like I
Speaker 2: think the everybody is playing with fire. Who's just like
Speaker 2: counting on these same dynamics of being scared of Trump
Speaker 2: to hold up like that that's not indefinite, That won't
Speaker 2: that won't hold up indefinitely, and then you're in some
Speaker 2: real big fucking trouble.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's a really good point.
Speaker 3: I think, even like after you said that, I think,
Speaker 3: I hope what I meant, because it makes me sound smarter,
Speaker 3: is that it wouldn't. It may not be maga in
Speaker 3: that name or Trump on like Trump, but it will
Speaker 3: be a version. It'll take on it, maybe a new face,
Speaker 3: maybe name name, or they'll keep the name. It's a
Speaker 3: great name. So who knows.
Speaker 1: No, you are wrong, but I was right. That's a
Speaker 1: great point.
Speaker 3: No, No, you just talked longer and you do this
Speaker 3: and it makes part.
Speaker 1: Of your thing. This is why you have me on.
Speaker 1: I know you guys fucking set me up right now,
Speaker 1: that's right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like, oh, let him be funny and then
Speaker 3: we talk and yeah, no, I'm but it's I.
Speaker 1: I still come back. I'll still keep coming back. Thank you.
Speaker 1: Strength of character, folks, strength of character. Thank you.
Speaker 2: All right, let's uh, let's take a break and we'll
Speaker 2: be right back.
Speaker 1: And we're back. And it's it's the holiday season and
Speaker 1: all around. Oh did you know is that I don't know?
Speaker 2: I I lost a I lost So it just like
Speaker 2: caught me for a brief. Is the holidays?
Speaker 1: Andy Williams. It's Andy Williams, the late great Andy Williams. Holiday.
Speaker 1: Was that guy probably a violent racist?
Speaker 3: Oh he was an alcoholic and definitely oh yeah, oh
Speaker 3: my god, just drool you know that like drunk sweat
Speaker 3: where just there's like beads of sweat above the lip,
Speaker 3: but it's like sixty one degrees.
Speaker 1: He's holding a saucer for some reason to catch his drool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a whole genre of holiday songs where the
Speaker 2: person seems to have suffered some sort of head injury,
Speaker 2: where like the Sayanta Baby and like that one's very
Speaker 2: infantilizing and dumb sounding, and then the.
Speaker 1: So what they dodoctor dot on my cock? You're not
Speaker 1: saying words anymore, homie. Yeah, wait, what was that last one?
Speaker 3: It does sound like all of these people are singing
Speaker 3: it as their hospital gown just comes undone, and they
Speaker 3: don't even know about it because they're just.
Speaker 1: So artne Oh dude, I'm so, I'm I'm vindicted. I'm
Speaker 1: vindicated here. I was looking into Andy Andy Williams politics.
Speaker 1: He was at the fucking Ambassador Hotel when RFK was
Speaker 1: killed because he was friends with RFK. But I was like,
Speaker 1: oh well, but he later on he's like, yeah, I
Speaker 1: was friends with him, but I'm a lifelong Republican. And
Speaker 1: he was like letting Rush Limbaugh use his music for
Speaker 1: his radio show and said Obama was a Marxist. So yeah,
Speaker 1: thanks Andy, thanks for.
Speaker 2: That thanks, Thank you Andy. He was he was there
Speaker 2: at the at the hotel when he was killed.
Speaker 1: Hey sir, right here, right, how about you know around
Speaker 1: the corner here, around the corner, about to come through
Speaker 1: the kitchen, about to come to the kitchen.
Speaker 2: Allegedly anyways, all equally honoring the holidays. Dejoorno is dropping
Speaker 2: a frozen Thanksgiving pizza on all of our asses.
Speaker 1: I don't beating us over the head, I think because
Speaker 1: it's frozen.
Speaker 2: Ah, a murder This is used as a murder weapon. Yeah,
Speaker 2: this is a Thanksgiving dinner that takes twenty minutes to
Speaker 2: make and you know, zero work. Just press a couple
Speaker 2: of buttons and it looks like in the in the
Speaker 2: photograph where they've made it look like as good as possible.
Speaker 1: It looks like shiit to me. Oh, personally, it looks
Speaker 1: like somewhere you got it looks like you've gotten a
Speaker 1: fight at your Thanksgiving and you were leaving with a
Speaker 1: plate like to go home with and then you got
Speaker 1: so many just threw it on the fucking ground. And
Speaker 1: yeah it was a pizza. It's kind of like, visually
Speaker 1: what this looks like.
Speaker 3: I was reading the review of my six Swordfish, I think,
Speaker 3: oh no, once it left. That's a goofy.
Speaker 1: Bravy covered rectangle. Yeahs like ship, but like the reviews
Speaker 1: seem to be that like it was, it tastes much
Speaker 1: better than people thought it would, but still a no
Speaker 1: for me. Me dog was kind of a thing I saw
Speaker 1: from other accounts I was looking on the internet. If
Speaker 1: you've got an official no for me dog, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's not delivery, it's disgusting. Hey, you know there's one
Speaker 1: for you. I like that.
Speaker 2: I'm no one that that might have been just your
Speaker 2: group of friends in middle school, but.
Speaker 1: You are you. I don't. I don't need this. I
Speaker 1: never thought like I'm always down with a Thanksgiving sandwich,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? That's like I'm willing to

Speaker 4: that you wipe your mouth with when you're done with it.
Speaker 1: It reveals a nice cloth napping with every bite was

Speaker 1: they know, honey, they know, they know. We got it.
Speaker 1: We got you cook.
Speaker 2: You could put some poultry on there after the fact,
Speaker 2: but when you put it, you put cooked turkey on
Speaker 2: as a topping and then cook it again. That's bout. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's cried out ass fucker. That bird is dry, bro,
Speaker 2: this is hookers dry. I think the best thing bird.
Speaker 2: So we hydrate this real quick.
Speaker 1: What's bird water? You don't want to know. But the
Speaker 1: best Thanksgiving leftover thing I've ever done was made pop
Speaker 1: out a ina with it like potato balls, you know,
Speaker 1: like a Portos, the potato ballsat So, yeah, this is
Speaker 1: what you do. Take mashed potatoes and then you take
Speaker 1: the you fork off the turkey meat right, And what
Speaker 1: I did was I made it for yeah, okay, thanks guys.
Speaker 1: And then you basically fill the center with like little
Speaker 1: bits of turkey with gravy, and then you wrap that
Speaker 1: in a fucking mashed potato ball and then you take
Speaker 1: stuffing right like the dry stuffing, like the mix you
Speaker 1: roll your potato balls in that and then deep fry
Speaker 1: that fucker. I'm telling you, that's what I did, like
Speaker 1: maybe eight years ago, when my friends high as fuck,
Speaker 1: and it was it's it's wonderful. I think people started.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying I came up with this, but after
Speaker 1: the fact I started, people started making this ship. But anyway,
Speaker 1: I'm not here.
Speaker 2: You dipping that in some gravy, but you want to
Speaker 2: keep the inside.
Speaker 1: What we did was we took we we braized a
Speaker 1: like turkey meat, like slow cooked it in gravy, so
Speaker 1: you had like this treaded turkey, like really soft turkey
Speaker 1: meat that was already like in a gravy mixture. So
Speaker 1: then it goes very well into the potato ball. Anyway,
Speaker 1: that's recipes with Miles. Yeah, I'm fucking impressed. That's amazing.
Speaker 1: I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll
Speaker 1: fucking do it. You should, yeah, and then you will, Bro,
Speaker 1: you'll do it, will Bro. I'm not sure. Go ahead.
Speaker 2: I've always wanted to dip, dip gravy and more gravy,
Speaker 2: and that that feels like an opportunity with this recipe.
Speaker 1: Oh like that, I think. Yeah, I thinky think like
Speaker 1: freezing that like gravy into a stick and then dipping
Speaker 1: that in gravy.
Speaker 6: A gravesticle or yeah, yeah, I mean even though Dejorno
Speaker 6: Pizza does give you that option, and maybe that would
Speaker 6: get over my difficulties with the dry turkey if you.
Speaker 2: If they gave you a gravy dipping sauce on the
Speaker 2: side for your gravy pizza, or.
Speaker 1: Just think ahead and integrate fucking stuffing with the flavor
Speaker 1: profile of your crust or dough, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: So like, your delivery mechanism is already has that like
Speaker 1: sage herby stuffing flavor whatever.
Speaker 2: Bro, Like, I can't you don't say delivery around the pole.
Speaker 2: I mean, you can't say delivery mechanism with them. They'll
Speaker 2: be so pissy. Fuck I just jump out the window.
Speaker 2: This meeting is over. Fuck you have them until that moment.
Speaker 1: I fucked it up, didn't I. They're like, yeah, you
Speaker 1: learned yes for an answer? Yeah, do you guys validate? No?

Speaker 3: would imagine soccer field, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, also looks like a UFO landed in the middle
Speaker 2: of Silicon Valley.
Speaker 1: That's the campus over there. Hydration. There's no like, there's
Speaker 1: no like folksy origin story about Digiorno, because it's not anything.
Speaker 1: It's a fucking name. They just gave their stupid frozen ship.
Speaker 1: I don't know why I.
Speaker 2: Made in the same yeah, probably made in the same
Speaker 2: lab as snackables.
Speaker 1: You know, this is fucked up.
Speaker 3: When I was in college, this is really I really
Speaker 3: lucked out here, So let's just look past that. This
Speaker 3: could have been, depending on who you ask, a disaster.
Speaker 3: But I came home drunk when I put it the
Speaker 3: jorna in the oven, fell asleep, woke up, just smoke
Speaker 3: filling up the place. The thing didn't even the thing
Speaker 3: is so filled with chemicals. It just like it didn't
Speaker 3: catch fire or anything. It just kind of became a
Speaker 3: new It went underwent like a chemical reaction and went
Speaker 3: from food to something else, like.
Speaker 1: The carbon it went to became carbon.
Speaker 3: It was the Carbon Supreme that I ordered, and it
Speaker 3: became full coal, and I ran my apartment off that
