Speaker 1: well represented wonderful culture well represented in the advertisements.
Speaker 2: Yes, Miles, you are in Los Angeles.
Speaker 3: No, I'm in atl Georgia, and it's you know, what
Speaker 3: do they do for you? It's a raining like planet, Like, Yeah,
Speaker 3: i'd be get to go a different place, exact same weather.
Speaker 2: The problem, man, it's clear back here now, man. Also,
Speaker 2: the studios here are so nice in Atlanta.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh my god, oh my god, oh oh I
Speaker 3: did he.
Speaker 2: Didn't play that, did he? Yeah? He did. It was
Speaker 2: just for a brief dude. It was like his second
Speaker 2: his cattle.
Speaker 3: It's so dense he could only do like one bar
Speaker 3: of a song as like a transitional line.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Are we gonna talk about the halftime show. We'll
Speaker 2: get to that. We talk about the super Bowl for sure,
Speaker 2: halftime show.
Speaker 1: But I am Jack beats Miles. I think I already
Speaker 1: said that. Before we get to what was trying to
Speaker 1: go over the weekend, we do like to tell you
Speaker 1: what's going on with us with a little overrated, underrated. Yes,
Speaker 1: you want to kick us off with something, Miles, you
Speaker 1: think is underrated underrated? Mid toilet paper, Just that nice
Speaker 1: mid toilet paper. The fancy shit sucks too fancy, like
Speaker 1: the overly quilted, overly quilted you're dealing with.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, but you're gonna be picking bits. But you
Speaker 3: know what I mean, it falls apart. And here's because
Speaker 3: on the spectrum of toilet papers, on the low end
Speaker 3: you have I don't give a I don't give a
Speaker 3: fuck about my orifices and the damage I'll do with
Speaker 3: this rough what they call paper toilet paper.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like tracing paper at the lowest end. Yes, exactly. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it feels like most in common with like yeah, the rice.
Speaker 3: Paper, right, or like a dental bib that they pin
Speaker 3: on you good for it, or they're all in the
Speaker 3: same family, they get all for the same supplier, just
Speaker 3: rough rough. And then on the other side of it,
Speaker 3: you also have like when it's too soft, the softness
Speaker 3: is over emphasized and you actually have something that is there.
Speaker 3: The structural integrity is compromised the second it interacts with
Speaker 3: any kind of moisture. So as I as I you know,
Speaker 3: sit here and think about it. I was in the
Speaker 3: hotel room. The hotel room I was in was on
Speaker 3: concrete paper tier almost to mid level tier, which I respect.
Speaker 2: But you know, also when you use a bid day.
Speaker 2: When you use a.
Speaker 3: Bidet, the toilet paper typically just there for a little dabbin,
Speaker 3: for a little dry in.
Speaker 2: So it does. But yeah, I'm just saying we need
Speaker 2: to respect.
Speaker 3: Let's really stop buying the super expense of ship.
Speaker 2: When it's like it's like wiping your ass, you're just
Speaker 2: encouraging then you guys.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't need to wipe my ass with newspaper anymore.
Speaker 3: I'm I'm past that, and I'm past wiping my ass
Speaker 3: on pillows. It was a fun frank in junior high.
Speaker 3: But with the pink eye outbreak, I realized it's a
Speaker 3: bad thing.
Speaker 1: And that horrible outbreak of pink eye that yeah, they
Speaker 1: say we.
Speaker 2: Lost our flag football championship game because of me.
Speaker 3: Quarterback Woolen shot quarterback and his eyes were just swollen shut.
Speaker 1: Oh no, oh my god. Yeah, I had a I
Speaker 1: just I'm very thankful for the for the advent of
Speaker 1: the beday era of my life.
Speaker 2: I'm living the bday era.
Speaker 1: I just had a day over the weekend where I
Speaker 1: was away from my home for a long period of time.
Speaker 2: And my Yeah, I was just miss isn't it.
Speaker 1: I was begging for the bidet, you know, just had
Speaker 1: to get back, and you know, I'm sorry, sorry for
Speaker 1: listeners anyone who didn't want to hear that, But then
Speaker 1: that's just the way it is.
Speaker 2: I'm just being honest. Mindrated. So I gotta like low
Speaker 2: power mode.
Speaker 1: I just I'm sure I'm missing something here, but like
Speaker 1: the low power mode on iPhones, I just like use
Speaker 1: that whenever I think to turn it on, and I've
Speaker 1: never noticed a difference in the funk like how my
Speaker 1: phone functions. I'm also stupid, so I'm you know, I'm
Speaker 1: putting the question out into the ether, like what is what?
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't you just always have low power mode on
Speaker 1: and just have longer battery life at all times? Like
Speaker 1: there's nothing that prevents you from having it, like turning
Speaker 1: it on at ninety percent and just leaving it there.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 3: Oh, because you're doing the uh the Kramer and Newman
Speaker 3: thing where they're trying to see how far they could
Speaker 3: go on?
Speaker 1: Man, Yeah, like could I could I get two days
Speaker 1: of usage from a single charge?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: Probably not, but you know, yeah, I've had to do it,
Speaker 1: you know, when traveling, I've had to do that. But
Speaker 1: I just I don't I don't understand what the I've
Speaker 1: never been like, man, low power mode is really fucking
Speaker 1: me here, you know.
Speaker 3: Right, Ah, yeah, you don't have someone going, well, there's
Speaker 3: your problem.
Speaker 2: You got all little power mode all the time. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I also, I should say, I also leave my flashlight
Speaker 1: on it all the time.
Speaker 2: The person. Yeah, yeah, I know, honey, I know, I know. Sorry.
Speaker 3: I shouldn't be on the phone in the movie theater.
Speaker 3: I'll be I'll call you right back after. Yeah, we're
Speaker 3: taking the second act.
Speaker 2: I just love the ideas. I mean, you see that.
Speaker 2: I've caught my mom. You know, people flashlight on, Yeah,
Speaker 2: they forget. I remember one time I think my mom
Speaker 2: had it on all day.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I remember it like because I was with
Speaker 3: her all day and I remember helped, like we were
Speaker 3: looking for something in the morning, and I remember she
Speaker 3: turned it on and then like in the middle of
Speaker 3: the day, I was.
Speaker 2: Like, you still got your flash not okay, miss. Never know,
Speaker 2: you never know where you're gonna need that.
Speaker 3: I think the one thing that could only be perceivable
Speaker 3: as I do a little research, is if you have
Speaker 3: like the like a newer pro motion display on your phone,
Speaker 3: then it just limits the display refresh rate to a
Speaker 3: paltry sixty frames per second.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe, yeah, And I wonder if it's like actually
Speaker 1: diminishing the quality of pictures I'm taking while it's on
Speaker 1: low power.
Speaker 2: I imagine the photo sensors are like work at the
Speaker 2: same But I have.
Speaker 1: A Nokia thirty three ten, so that's also people should
Speaker 1: take that into account.
Speaker 2: I'm back here, right right, okay, all right? What is uh?
Speaker 2: What's something you think is overrated? My mouth?
Speaker 3: I keep saying this, but travel? Oh, first of all,
Speaker 3: update I was traveling. I want to go see how
Speaker 3: much checks mixed cost at the Hudson News at LAX
Speaker 3: four ninety nine.
Speaker 2: Lax, what the shoutout to Lax? What in the fuck?
Speaker 3: It was only like a dollar more than it was
Speaker 3: in my rite aid, because I remember I went to
Speaker 3: write aid earlier this week. I said, let me just
Speaker 3: let me just just for a baseline, see what the
Speaker 3: checks mixes.
Speaker 2: More bake news, I mean I think I do.
Speaker 3: He's did He didn't say something about he's like tired
Speaker 3: of the shrink flation crap that the snack companies are doing. Anyway,
Speaker 3: But I'm always thinking about food because I love food.
Speaker 3: I'm always hungry and I love to eat, and I
Speaker 3: was just thinking that, Like I talked about this when
Speaker 3: I got back from Japan too, that like we just
Speaker 3: American food culture is just fucked up. Like the food
Speaker 3: itself is great. We have a lot of great food
Speaker 3: that has come out of the United States, and it's
Speaker 3: not about food, but capitalism has destroyed our underlying beliefs
Speaker 3: around food, and I like, again, I talked about this
Speaker 3: a lot. But if you eat outside of your house,
Speaker 3: that's a luxury, and we are denied opportunities to socialize
Speaker 3: with friends and family if you go out or something
Speaker 3: and maybe just get like one bite to eat without
Speaker 3: it being a financially fucking tense situation most of the time.
Speaker 1: So so you're saying that like in other countries, it's
Speaker 1: not eating outside your house is not a luxury.
Speaker 2: It's like kind of more powerful there there are you.
Speaker 3: There are places we can be like, oh, this place
Speaker 3: is cheap, Like we can go and at least we
Speaker 3: can sit down, we can have a drink if we want,
Speaker 3: we have a little bite to eat, and it's not
Speaker 3: like just you know, exorbitant prices. But really, I say
Speaker 3: this because I thought of something in my hotel room
Speaker 3: late at night as I was trying to fall asleep.
Speaker 3: Is we need to nationalize the sandwich, and we need
Speaker 3: what we need is to set a standard for what
Speaker 3: a sandwich can cost. And I'm not talking like a
Speaker 3: HOGI those those are more bells and whistles. I'm talking
Speaker 3: about your standard issue two pieces of sliced bread with
Speaker 3: something in between sandwich. Like, we need to find a
Speaker 3: way that we say we cannot go over a certain
Speaker 3: price for this thing.
Speaker 2: There's no need for it. And also we can help people.
Speaker 3: I'm saying seventy five cents seems like a fair price,
Speaker 3: Like if you're just had seventy five.
Speaker 2: Any sort that's like well talking fucking call it.
Speaker 3: I don't know, a fucking egg salad, a turkey sandwich.
Speaker 2: Ham and cheese, cheese, a veggie, whatever.
Speaker 3: But like there has to be a there has to
Speaker 3: be like a floor and that we are a ceiling
Speaker 3: and a floor that is set in a way that
Speaker 3: we're like, we don't go over this. We this is
Speaker 3: part of the social contract that a sandwich that's simple
Speaker 3: can be accessible to anybody because fast food is inaccessible.
Speaker 3: I just like I'm just thinking about all this stuff.
Speaker 3: Like like in Japan, I always use this an example,
Speaker 3: like ramen is a working class food. It's accessible to everyone.
Speaker 3: That's why, like I have trouble eating out, like having
Speaker 3: domin in like La because I'm like, I'm like, I can't.
Speaker 3: I can't wrap my head around a fucking eighteen dollars
Speaker 3: bowl of this shit. Like there it's understood, Like you can't.
Speaker 3: Don't start gouging people for this. This is a staple
Speaker 3: thing that we agree on costs a certain amount.
Speaker 2: Can I make a request? Yes? Can we nationally?
Speaker 1: Can Can we just take ramen as our national baseline
Speaker 1: food instead of a wonderbread sandwich?
Speaker 3: That is a very American thought. And yeah, you know what,
Speaker 3: I like your thinking. I don't like because sandwich daughter.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like there's way better man or like a burrito
Speaker 1: something that I can buy at seven to eleven or
Speaker 1: the National Sandwich Dispensary. Yeah, and then take home and microwave,
Speaker 1: you know, with without it the sandwiches, the kind of
Speaker 1: low price point sandwiches. Uh usually get fucked up at something.
Speaker 2: Understand that.
Speaker 3: But but it's all to say that there is a
Speaker 3: way to get sustenance that doesn't cost too much money.
Speaker 3: And that's for you, for president, Thank you, because like
Speaker 3: in Asia other parts of the world, the seasoning part
Speaker 3: is already understood and it's a little bit delayed.
Speaker 2: So we can't.
Speaker 3: We don't want to jump over and be like, well
Speaker 3: what about the brito, because they know what that tastes good.
Speaker 3: We have to accept our lot as Americans. This is
Speaker 3: our cheap food, and we do not go over a
Speaker 3: certain price for it. So anybody in a just in
Speaker 3: a pinch, whatever you can at least eat something. I
Speaker 3: just think it would have much I don't know, I
Speaker 3: think it would just be a net positive for our society.
Speaker 1: I'm just envisioning a lot of like grilled chicken breast
Speaker 1: on white bread with a slice of cheese and a
Speaker 1: piece of wet lettuce, kind of making the whole thing,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get that.
Speaker 3: I think we can think a little bit bigger, you know,
Speaker 3: because everything is so mass produced, right, even if we're
Speaker 3: like pimento cheese. I'm saying that because I'm in Atlanta
Speaker 3: and I'm surrounded by it and my blood type is
Speaker 3: slowly turning into amento cheese. But like in mass you
Speaker 3: can find a way and keep your margins low. Like
Speaker 3: the whole thing is this is not going to be
Speaker 3: a great business model.
Speaker 2: No, but exactly.
Speaker 3: But how this food that people can afford is a
Speaker 3: bigger issue, and I think that's where I don't know.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: We need to nationalize and be like, okay, you know what,
Speaker 3: we love your pimento cheese. Some of this is going
Speaker 3: to like the federal fund for our nationalized sandwiches.
Speaker 1: It's just unrealistic. If it's not a good business model,
Speaker 1: it's unrealistic.
Speaker 2: I know, that's what's so fucked up.
Speaker 1: But you're a child if you don't if it's not
Speaker 1: a business model, if you can't explain to me how
Speaker 1: you're gonna get this thing capitalized, bro, how you're gonna
Speaker 1: get some VC funding. Some angel investors excited or.
Speaker 3: On the right, they're like, this is big government coming
Speaker 3: for you and making us eat their prison food or whatever.
Speaker 3: I'm like, no, well this is already a prison anyway.
Speaker 3: Thanks for that realization, But we also need to we
Speaker 3: just have to have some level that we agree because
Speaker 3: food is so so ridiculous.
Speaker 1: Man, it's just sir, all right, let's take a quick break.
Speaker 2: We'll come back.
Speaker 1: We'll do my over, which is related to some news stories.
Speaker 1: So uh, it'll get We'll get into the news when
Speaker 1: we come back.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back.
Speaker 1: And we're back, oh we are. And so my overrated is.
Speaker 2: News stories that are called.
Speaker 1: Anytime you hear this construction the real world insert movie,
Speaker 1: the real world Home Alone or something, the real world
Speaker 1: Gone Girl, the real world war fin. So if you're
Speaker 1: seeing that construction, be very wary. I've talked about my
Speaker 1: you know, I the power of movies that I think
Speaker 1: movies like channel our national like unconscious, and you know,
Speaker 1: the ones that hit are expressing something that like we
Speaker 1: need expressed as a culture, and sometimes it's so powerful
Speaker 1: that they like the culture will manifest an actual real
Speaker 1: version of that. Like I've always said that, I think
Speaker 1: the Dahmer thing might have come about because like he
Speaker 1: was discovered during the Sounds of the Lambs like mania,
Speaker 1: Like after that movie became a huge hit, they discovered Dahmer.
Speaker 1: He has all these bodies in his house and his freezer,
Speaker 1: and he's like, oh, yeah, I was eating them.
Speaker 2: I don't I don't know that he was.
Speaker 1: I think like he met the moment the the like
Speaker 1: and the and the police obviously like found that compelling,
Speaker 1: and you know, got on a bunch of talk shows
Speaker 1: because they you know, that matched what the people wanted.
Speaker 3: Right, And I ignored that one victim that stumbled out
Speaker 3: of his house because I don't know, he seemed like he.
Speaker 2: Had right exactly. So.
Speaker 1: But there are these two stories that are kind of like, uh,
Speaker 1: making a lot of waves in the true crime world
Speaker 1: right now, that are examples of this. So there's the
Speaker 1: Natalia Grace story. You know about this.
Speaker 2: I've heard about this, folks. Yeah, I've seen folks, you've
Speaker 2: seen this. You heard about this? Did you watch both seasons?
Speaker 2: I haven't watched.
Speaker 1: Either documentary, I'm but I just became aware of them,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, this is exactly exactly what I'm always
Speaker 1: talking about. This couple adopted a child with Dwarfism from
Speaker 1: Ukraine and then like convinced themselves and a judge and
Speaker 1: a bunch of true crime podcasters in mainstream media outlets
Speaker 1: that she was actually an adult with Dwarfism.
Speaker 3: I remember we talked about this on the show like
Speaker 3: years ago when it first came out, when like it
Speaker 3: was sort of like, what's going on, Like these people
Speaker 3: are claiming that she was like saying, like I'm gonna
Speaker 3: cut your throat and like she still stood over me
Speaker 3: with a knife while I was sleeping, Yes.
Speaker 1: Which are like scenes from the movie Orphan. Right, And
Speaker 1: the plot the premise is the same plot as the
Speaker 1: movie spoiler alert for the movie Orphan. The twist for
Speaker 1: that is that the child ends up being like older,
Speaker 1: so they have sense, you know, they they convinced a
Speaker 1: judge that she was an adult. She was legally like
Speaker 1: her birthday was legally changed. Yeah, made an adult, and
Speaker 1: then the family just like dropped her in an apartment
Speaker 1: to fend for herself like she was a child. They
Speaker 1: so they've they've done like the testing and like all
Speaker 1: the DNA and everything, and they're like, no, she's the
Speaker 1: age she said she was.
Speaker 3: You may spoiler alert she got her age changed back.
Speaker 3: She did, she got was able to get her age
Speaker 3: changed after.
Speaker 1: Such a wild story. And it's just the power of people,
Speaker 1: you know. The movie hit on this premise that people
Speaker 1: are like, oh shit, could you imagine?
Speaker 3: It's weird though too, because like some people's even perception
Speaker 3: of her in their first hand experiences with her were
Speaker 3: tinged by this idea that she may be older or
Speaker 3: like when she lived in that apartment. Like in the
Speaker 3: in the documentary series, they talked to the neighbors and
Speaker 3: they're like, she was always like so obsessed.
Speaker 2: It was kind of weird.
Speaker 3: She'd always be like when you're going to be home,
Speaker 3: or like when we'd get home, they would come out
Speaker 3: and like knock on our door and like see what
Speaker 3: we were up to, And it's like there was really
Speaker 3: no boundaries, and like part of that was sort of
Speaker 3: you could say people were saying that from this perspective
Speaker 3: like kind of creepy. But then there's a version to her,
Speaker 3: like this wasn't a This was a child who didn't
Speaker 3: know anybody.
Speaker 2: So imagine circumstance. Yeah, imagine a child is like, hey,
Speaker 2: what are you guys doing? Oh? What can I do? Stuff?
Speaker 2: That's what probably was fucking happening. Rather than being like, hey,
Speaker 2: where the fuck were you? You know what I mean?
Speaker 3: It's just yeah, this this the story gets I guess
Speaker 3: even deeper because she was adopted by this other family.
Speaker 3: Now and the cliffhanger at the end of the second season.
Speaker 3: There's a spoiler alert if you're watching it and you're
Speaker 3: not caught up, but they seem to cast doubt over
Speaker 3: how like if she is sort of like always this
Speaker 3: kind person, or if she's a little more aggressive, or
Speaker 3: if there's just another family that was in over their
Speaker 3: skis and were like, something's wrong with her.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: There's also this popular crime documentary, American Nightmare. I think
Speaker 1: it's called about a woman who was abducted her boyfriend
Speaker 1: reporter missing after he said he was drugged, and then
Speaker 1: like the police began to suspect him, and then she
Speaker 1: returned alive like three days later, and the police and
Speaker 1: the media immediately were like, dude, looks like Gone Girl
Speaker 1: to me. Do you see that movie Gone Girl that's
Speaker 1: out in theaters.
Speaker 2: It's exactly what it is. Reminds me of no thought needed.
Speaker 1: Here, So they like just assumed that it was a
Speaker 1: Gone Girl situation, right, she had like faked her own abduction,
Speaker 1: and and there was a real serial sexual predator who
Speaker 1: was out there and kept on doing it and had
Speaker 1: been doing it for years, but Gone Girl had just
Speaker 1: come out, So that's what the police went with. And
Speaker 1: it's just it's another like I mean, true crime is
Speaker 1: basically like the true crime obsession is America waking up
Speaker 1: to the reality that the police are like so bad
Speaker 1: at their jobs. Yeah, and this is no exception. There's
Speaker 1: like there there was this serial predator who was responsible
Speaker 1: for the abduction, had been doing shit like stalking students
Speaker 1: for years in a different community, and like the police
Speaker 1: were dismissive of them, and like the students caught him,
Speaker 1: like figured.
Speaker 2: Out who he was, like that he was.
Speaker 1: Had a military background, he was a lawyer, like all
Speaker 1: these different things, and the police just more like, yeah,
Speaker 1: well that's what you crazy kid. Yeah, you go back
Speaker 1: to being a student. Detectives like, what do we got here?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 3: Yeah, she disappeared, came back a few days later. I've
Speaker 3: seen this one hundred times. It's a Gone Girl situation. Wait,
Speaker 3: you've seen it a hundred times from your experience as
Speaker 3: a detective. Now, I've seen the movie Gone Girl one
Speaker 3: hundred times. Really good, really out there. Anyway, this is
Speaker 3: like exactly like that, So we should just go with that.
Speaker 1: Yeahs anyways, very I don't know, there's a real, uh,
Speaker 1: real attraction to bullshit.
Speaker 2: That is, you know people imagine.
Speaker 1: In movies if a movie says it, if you see
Speaker 1: it in a movie and then the police say it happened,
Speaker 1: I would be very highly suspicious.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just like wilder than someone at a podium like
Speaker 3: in a police press conference, Like, yeah, it's an open
Speaker 3: and shutcase of the lovely bones.
Speaker 2: What lovely bones on our hands?
Speaker 3: We got a real I Am Sam type thing going
Speaker 3: on here.
Speaker 2: What what what do you mean? Did you guys? Yes,
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, got that messed up? Got that
Speaker 2: messed up? You thought it was the Sean Penn Yeah?
Speaker 2: Wait wait, yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Not familiar,
Speaker 2: all right.
Speaker 1: Uh, We're gonna check in with our two presidential candidates
Speaker 1: from the weekend. Trump, you know, continued to impotently rage
Speaker 1: at the mere concept that Taylor Swift would endorse Joe
Speaker 1: Biden over the weekend, you know, just revealing where the
Speaker 1: anger of his follow his supporters comes from. All mad
Speaker 1: at Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift, and he is not
Speaker 1: making it easy for them to hide where that anger
Speaker 1: is coming from, because he's having a temper tantrum about
Speaker 1: how she should like him more in public, master with
Speaker 1: all the conspiracies, He's like, she should love me.
Speaker 2: But why why should? I think?
Speaker 3: This is the best part is that he actually is like,
Speaker 3: she should actually like me better than Joe Biden because.
Speaker 1: I was responsible for the Music Modernization Act of twenty eighteen. Oh,
Speaker 1: there's no way she should endorse crooked Joe Biden, the
Speaker 1: worst and most corrupt president in the history of our country,
Speaker 1: and be disloyal to the man who made her so
Speaker 1: much money. Friend Travis, even though he may be a
Speaker 1: liberal and probably can't stand me. Exclamation point that that detailed,
Speaker 1: like adding that at the end, probably hates me so money.
Speaker 3: Tight end boyfriend, even though he may hate me and
Speaker 3: think I'm just probably losing.
Speaker 1: I we know he's impressed by big guys with muscles. Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, looks like an oak tree smuggling Christmas hands.
Speaker 3: I mean the right places, The way he was, the
Speaker 3: way he was screams singing Viva Las Vegas from the
Speaker 3: podium when he raised that trophy, it was we've.
Speaker 2: Lost, we lost. Folks were completely lost in his voice.
Speaker 3: But yeah, he uh, you know, he loves a bit
Speaker 3: of MMA. So the Music Modernization Act and I guess
Speaker 3: maybe falls into that.
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's like, I'm sorry, did you conceive the bill?
Speaker 2: Did you say? You know what?
Speaker 3: As president, we need to address how royalties are paid
Speaker 3: on streaming services or whatever.
Speaker 2: It sounds like him that sounds like that's true. Donald Trump, Yeah,
Speaker 2: you're right. Actually, what am I saying? Yeah? It's responsible
Speaker 2: just legislation based. Now. According to the key attorneys.
Speaker 1: Behind the MMA, his comments were funny because he quote
Speaker 1: did nothing on air legislation except sign it. And she
Speaker 1: also suggested he quote doesn't even know what the Music
Speaker 1: Modernization Act does, adding that someone should ask him what
Speaker 1: the bill actually accomplished.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure if someone said, Trump, uh, you know,
Speaker 3: can you tell us about the m m A, he'd
Speaker 3: start talking about UFC. Oh, for sure. There's no way.
Speaker 3: There's no way you could just lob that. And he goes,
Speaker 3: I get this, Dana White, really good friend.
Speaker 1: I feel like he treats like the things that he
Speaker 1: signed during his presidency like their memorabilia. You know, it's
Speaker 1: like he doesn't know anything about it.
Speaker 2: He just like collects full of bills that he signed.
Speaker 1: Pretty cool life profile The New Yorker profile of Trump
Speaker 1: from like the early two thousands, where they're just like
Speaker 1: following him around and he's just showing them like the
Speaker 1: spot and loves signing Show and Tell by Hollyfield being
Speaker 1: like it's a pretty cool life, eh, Pretty cool?
Speaker 2: Pretty cool?
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's and I'm glad that he's like, I'm
Speaker 3: the reason she made all the money. It's because the
Speaker 3: way the publisher worked for streaming platforms is the reason
Speaker 3: Taylor Swift made so much money, not because prior to
Speaker 3: that for music was so popular. But yes, but yes,
Speaker 3: that will convince her to say, bow to the man
Speaker 3: that gave you all your precious little pennies.
Speaker 1: He also proudly stated that he would encourage Russia to
Speaker 1: attack any NATO members that fell behind in its payment
Speaker 1: during a rally, leading NATO's chief to suggest that those
Speaker 1: comments undermine all our security put American and European soldiers
Speaker 1: at increase risk. That doesn't really have anything to do
Speaker 1: with Taylor Swift, So I wasn't going to really.
Speaker 2: Get it, so to speak. I'm not sure what that's
Speaker 2: all about.
Speaker 3: That's the one part he told the truth about. And
Speaker 3: I'll put all of his brain power towards that statement.
Speaker 3: That seems a little more realistic.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it does feel like the Biden campaign should just
Speaker 1: be running on. He's more likely to start World War three.
Speaker 1: He like seems to want to start World War three. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he might not know the difference between Mexico and Egypt,
Speaker 1: but yeah, we'll start World War three American democraphy.
Speaker 3: Democraphy democracy is too amorphous of a concept for the
Speaker 3: regular voter.
Speaker 2: But if you're like you.
Speaker 3: Want to get conscripted in World War three, like exactly,
Speaker 3: then maybe be like wait what wow? But again that's
Speaker 3: a cynical politics. It's like Biden's whole things. She'd just
Speaker 3: be pointing at Trump.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it really should.
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, I know what's he gonna do. Be like, I
Speaker 2: can't get countries right in my mind.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So that that did happen, just to like check
Speaker 1: it on the other side.
Speaker 2: So he started out so strong.
Speaker 1: He had the there was uh this Special Council Robert
Speaker 1: her report on Biden's mishandling of classified documents where he
Speaker 1: was like, you can't charge this guy. I mean, he's
Speaker 1: so old he can't remember shit. Is essentially he called
Speaker 1: him quote an elderly man with a poor memory who
Speaker 1: couldn't remember when he was vice president or even when
Speaker 1: his son Bo died.
Speaker 2: That's actually in the document.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh boy, which is that's not good, That's that's
Speaker 1: not a resounding endorsement. Biden comes through and was like,
Speaker 1: all right, that's it stage of stage of press conference.
Speaker 2: Oh no, right now, do you want to telepronster?
Speaker 1: No, no, we're going off prompter. We're going off prompter Jack. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I mean people are some people are like it
Speaker 1: seems a little mean and like bringing up the his
Speaker 1: son bo dying thing feels a little like wind crossy,
Speaker 1: but also like his memory was material to any conclusions
Speaker 1: that were reached in this investigation.
Speaker 3: So I don't know, because if you're honestly, like, honestly, bro,
Speaker 3: this dude didn't remember, So I can't really say there
Speaker 3: was anything like untoward, Like this dude didn't even remember
Speaker 3: when his sun died.
Speaker 2: So I'm like, how am I gonna? I don't think
Speaker 2: there's any malicious and.
Speaker 3: Like I feel that, you know, it's it seems malicious
Speaker 3: or whatever. If you're so concerned about people the perception
Speaker 3: around Joe Biden's mental acuity, they're like.
Speaker 2: Don't fucking shake the boat right now.
Speaker 3: But they're both fucking in decline.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So it's not like I can see how it
Speaker 1: would come up when investigating someone's mishandling of documents and
Speaker 1: they can't remember like that that they were vice president
Speaker 1: for a moment. He might he might be like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel like this is what's going on here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I get it too, because he's like it
Speaker 3: was like a Trump sort of appointee sort of pattern
Speaker 3: of like the people involved. But sure, yeah, the fact
Speaker 3: remains Joe Biden can see dead people and he can
Speaker 3: commune with the deceased. Yeah, and also, maybe you know,
Speaker 3: the memories a little dodgy at times.
Speaker 1: So you did this impromptu press conference that I have
Speaker 1: to assume was just like he asked for it, like
Speaker 1: forty times before they even acknowledged that he was asking
Speaker 1: for it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: In the first a couple of times, it was like
Speaker 1: that conference. Sure, let me tell the press conference. Okay,
Speaker 1: I give me ten minutes.
Speaker 3: Let me just get the press pool together in the
Speaker 3: conference room really quick.
Speaker 2: He goes in.
Speaker 3: It's all his staffers still just fucking pretend to be
Speaker 3: the press.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 3: He's like, hey, hey, hold on, hold on, no, that's
Speaker 3: my assistant.
Speaker 1: So when asked about his memory problems that is impromptu
Speaker 1: press conference by Fox News is Peter Doocey. He responded,
Speaker 1: my memory is so bad, I.
Speaker 2: Let you speak. Yeah, got his asked. Everyone was like,
Speaker 2: all right, Biden's sharp, so just.
Speaker 1: As he's walking away, and his you know, staff is
Speaker 1: like high five a like responding like they just won
Speaker 1: the super Bowl because they're like, oh my god. He
Speaker 1: like pitched a perfect being almost out the door, and
Speaker 1: a reporter asked him about Israel, and he returned to
Speaker 1: the podium and he kept speaking and he referred to
Speaker 1: Egyptian president Abdel Fatah, I'll see see as the president
Speaker 1: of Mexico.
Speaker 2: I'll see see. And that that was Yeah.
Speaker 1: It was just, you know, it's kind of the kind
Speaker 1: of ship that he's been doing for a while.
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 1: I don't know, like three of the four last presidents
Speaker 1: have all been like this, you know, but w Bush,
Speaker 1: Trump and Biden have all been the sort of people
Speaker 1: who confuse words for other words, the misspeak and are
Speaker 1: kind of bumbling.
Speaker 2: And but yeah, I mean, is this bumbling or his men?
Speaker 2: I mean, because like I'm.
Speaker 1: Trying to be like, is it your mehotocracy.
Speaker 2: Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador sound like.
Speaker 3: Out CC and anyone like trying to figure out it,
Speaker 3: like if there are any connections here. But yeah, Joe,
Speaker 3: look man, it's like it's it's Battle of the Olds
Speaker 3: this fall.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Trump, Meanwhile, this weekend couldn't say the word subsidies.
Speaker 1: He also talked about how he once saw a migrant
Speaker 1: stealing a refrigerator and claimed that if he didn't win,
Speaker 1: Biden would change the name of Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2: So I just he said. It was such confidence too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, we're not gonna have He's like, you gotta vote, Remember,
Speaker 3: we have to win in November. Quote, Oh, we're not
Speaker 3: gonna have Pennsylvania. They're going to change the name. They're
Speaker 3: going to change the name of Pennsylvania for what reason.
Speaker 1: Again, like the people who work for him are like, Okay,
Speaker 1: we can probably figure out a way to justify him
Speaker 1: saying we're not gonna have Pennsylvania, Like maybe you know
Speaker 1: something with taxation, they're going to change the name.
Speaker 2: Oh fuck, what does that mean?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 1: Miss but you're going to change the name of Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2: Oh fuck. It's because he.
Speaker 3: Has this like rhetorical style when talking about like when
Speaker 3: he has to sort of forecast what a like a
Speaker 3: liberal future looks like in in America, and it's always
Speaker 3: they're gonna take away your bread, folks, They're gonna take
Speaker 3: away all your TVs.
Speaker 2: They're gonna change the name of like It's just like
Speaker 2: a thing.
Speaker 3: He always just says shit like this, and sometimes it
Speaker 3: makes sense, kind of like when you're talking about gas
Speaker 3: stoves or whatever, he's like, they don't want anybody cooking
Speaker 3: with gas. They want people just cooking with charcoal again
Speaker 3: or something, or magnets.
Speaker 2: And with this he just unfore you, they're gonna change
Speaker 2: the name of Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1: They want toilets with tiny little mouth holes that can't
Speaker 1: flush our huge turds exactly.
Speaker 2: That was one of those things. Could you imagine if
Speaker 2: he started doing I think you should leave shit?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think, I mean, I think I think you
Speaker 1: should leave is one of his favorite shows.
Speaker 2: And he saw that and was like, that's what they're
Speaker 2: gonna do. I mouth.
Speaker 1: Because he did have like a run during his presidency
Speaker 1: about how toilets can't flush as big dumps anymore.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Oh, and then remember that one Attorney general guy who
Speaker 3: made the toilet for big balls. Yeah, and my balls
Speaker 3: are always Matt fucking Matt Whittaker.
Speaker 2: Good lord, why is that name still in our brains? Anyway?
Speaker 1: That's not a mine. Yeah, that is one of the
Speaker 1: things I have forgotten. Just for Uber Eats commercial, which
Speaker 1: we will talk about when we come back from break
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl commercials. Guys, we love them, don't we, folks.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back and we're back. We're back.
Speaker 1: And uh so you were you were kind of in
Speaker 1: flight and then at a bar.
Speaker 2: I was.
Speaker 3: My flight took off at two thirty, so you were, Yeah,
Speaker 3: so it started to take like an hour into a
Speaker 3: class transcontinental flight.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 3: It's kind of interesting looking at the flight map too,
Speaker 3: because like a lot of times, when you know, like
Speaker 3: you take like long flights, you kind of use the
Speaker 3: curvature of the Earth to like lessen the distance traveled,
Speaker 3: like and I was like, oh that makes sense. Like
Speaker 3: flying from Eleida George, it's like the most straight line
Speaker 3: I've ever seen, like a.
Speaker 2: Flight path pick.
Speaker 3: It's like, and we're just on this one road. It's
Speaker 3: like take the ten on down and you'll get there.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I got that and I saw So it's
Speaker 3: funny I didn't I didn't have it on my I didn't.
Speaker 3: I wasn't watching it, but every person pretty much had
Speaker 3: it on so like peripherally, like I was always kind
Speaker 3: of seeing what was happening. And so but then I
Speaker 3: didn't see the halftime show because I wanted to watch
Speaker 3: it like properly, so I saved that for when I
Speaker 3: got to my hotel and I watched some of the
Speaker 3: I just watched some of the commercials on YouTube because
Speaker 3: I wasn't really watching it in real time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean halftime show was good.
Speaker 2: Oh my dude. The skates were an incredible feat.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, usher Man forty five, you're doing it. You're
Speaker 3: still you still got it? Like is ninety eight in here?
Speaker 3: I don't know how, sir, but you're when he like
Speaker 3: when he went into you don't have to call, but
Speaker 3: he was out, like he was almost out of breath
Speaker 3: from like the last number and then had to go
Speaker 3: situations And I'm like, hot, bro, you were just running.
Speaker 2: How did you hit that note? Yeah?
Speaker 1: And you knew the audio was actually his audio because
Speaker 1: they were having some mike difficulty.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Also, Jermain Dupree looked like a miniature version of se Lo.
Speaker 2: He did, I could. I didn't know who that's who
Speaker 2: that was.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was like, that's jdqual because you know, we're
Speaker 3: used to we're used to the braids and ever since
Speaker 3: he went clean shaven, you know, and and the glasses
Speaker 3: and like this sort of tuxedo short style felt very
Speaker 3: like NARLS.
Speaker 2: Barkley era Selo that did it was?
Speaker 1: I think that that was who the people I was
Speaker 1: watching was thought it was at first, Yeah, sure.
Speaker 2: No, but he was too short in stature to be
Speaker 2: Selo Green. But yeah, really.
Speaker 1: Big different, I mean a big night for Jesus, Jesus
Speaker 1: Christ like four ads where Jesus the he Gets Us
Speaker 1: those are everywhere. And these were like a series of
Speaker 1: what seemed to be AI generated images of people washing
Speaker 1: each other's feet. I need a bunch of little freaks.
Speaker 3: It looked like, can you do like Norman Rockwell and
Speaker 3: David la Chapelle, like David la Chappelle's photography style and
Speaker 3: generate all these images of the foot washings which are
Speaker 3: very that commercial was so weird.
Speaker 2: Very weird.
Speaker 1: Love the message of like, hey, Christians, Chris, here's the
Speaker 1: thing that like It seems like his main thing was
Speaker 1: about like kind of liking each other, being kind. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: the group behind it, He Gets Us is bankrolled by
Speaker 1: at least partially by anti LGBTQ plus groups, So.
Speaker 3: Which is why because that I feel like the final
Speaker 3: image was him with like like a gay guy with
Speaker 3: like a like it was sort of meant to be,
Speaker 3: like and even homosexuals are welcomed to Jesus, but also
Speaker 3: partially funded by the people who are trying to roll
Speaker 3: back rights for LGBTQ plus people in America.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: Mark Wahlberg has mentioned up top urged us to stay
Speaker 1: preyed up.
Speaker 2: Uh and it.
Speaker 1: Was weird, like it was. It's an ad for an app.
Speaker 1: Most most of the ads seem to be for an
Speaker 1: app in one way or another. Yeah, but his is
Speaker 1: an app where you can pray with people.
Speaker 2: At the at the same time. I don't I don't really.
Speaker 1: I haven't really figured wrapped my head around how this
Speaker 1: works or why you would want to pray with people
Speaker 1: at the same time.
Speaker 3: But I feel like it has to be a little
Speaker 3: sacrilegious to be like we're going to monetize a prayer app.
Speaker 1: Right, like actually, like we're we're we're not going to
Speaker 1: make you pay. We're just gonna, like, you know, you
Speaker 1: still with your identity. We're going to basically steal your identity.
Speaker 3: But then like also let us know what you're praying about,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like type it in what
Speaker 3: are your thoughts, your feelings.
Speaker 1: The Scientology model. Scientology had a couple ads, which I'm
Speaker 1: not I'm not going to talk about them because I
Speaker 1: still have some research to do, but look very intriguing.
Speaker 1: I'm very interested in this group. I haven't I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever heard of them before. But
Speaker 2: we'll give it a look. Yeah, we'll see some interesting
Speaker 2: stuff being talked about.
Speaker 1: But yeah, the scientology model of where you like, you know,
Speaker 1: find out compromising information about the people up front. I
Speaker 1: don't know that that's what the preyed up app does. Uh,
Speaker 1: maybe it could be.
Speaker 3: At the highest levels of the Vatican, they're like, we gotta,
Speaker 3: we gotta go Hubbard on them.
Speaker 2: This one goes all the way to the top.
Speaker 1: Bro, exactly, my boss, the Pope here, why don't you
Speaker 1: Why don't you take it up with my boss the Pope?
Speaker 2: I feel like that was the name.
Speaker 1: Mark Wahlberg is constantly saying that ship, quoting the Pope's exorcist.
Speaker 3: Yeah, or he'll be like or he'll be like really
Speaker 3: mean to service workers. But then he'll be like, yeah,
Speaker 3: but guess what, It's not coming from me, It's coming
Speaker 3: from my boss Jesus Christ. So why don't you learn
Speaker 3: how to fucking why don't you learn what a well
Speaker 3: done hamburger looks? Like?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I like it, fucking well done. Ben Affleck
Speaker 2: did a duncan add with a fake boy band.
Speaker 1: They're like, I don't know, like if you I rewatched
Speaker 1: it this morning, so I get I get the vibe
Speaker 1: a little bit more. But it's just the he like
Speaker 1: comes into J Loo's recording studio and pretends to be
Speaker 1: in a boy band called the dun Kings dum, and
Speaker 1: I thought they've been like, y'all are done? Like you're correct, Yeah,
Speaker 1: the dune Kings.
Speaker 3: I thought that's what Maybe he was like, Oh that's
Speaker 3: that's clever, because y'all are I mean.
Speaker 1: It was him, Matt Damon, and Tom Brady, youeh, at
Speaker 1: least two of those three might be done. Tom Brady
Speaker 1: seems to just be on a tour of like appearing
Speaker 1: as himself with like silly shit on his face right
Speaker 1: in a way that's like self effacing, but also it's
Speaker 1: impossible to tell if he's in on the self effacement
Speaker 1: or not.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so that's what a lack of charisma does
Speaker 3: to people.
Speaker 2: You're like, I'm not sure what you're.
Speaker 3: Doing here, so I guess I'll have to so maybe
Speaker 3: wig acting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, be the move this guy.
Speaker 3: I honestly, I think the best part of that duncan
Speaker 3: Ad was Matt Damon because he was the audience surrogate
Speaker 3: representing the audience like this is fucking terrible, dude, why
Speaker 3: are we doing this?
Speaker 1: So our writer jam was like, how much does he
Speaker 1: love duncan that he, like Ben Affleck, is like willing
Speaker 1: to routinely humiliate himself for them, Yeah, which you know,
Speaker 1: partially you're like, obviously he is making a lot of money. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Partially you're like he's probably taking payments and iced coffee.
Speaker 1: But it's it's just a weird brand relationship because his
Speaker 1: initial association with them comes from like tabloid photos of
Speaker 1: him looking like rock bottom as hell, just like puffy
Speaker 1: relapsed face, smoking cigarettes, looking like the soul has been
Speaker 1: just like drained out of his body, and people were like, man,
Speaker 1: this guy loves his donkeys. And now he's got like
Speaker 1: a national ad campaign where he's just got to pretend
Speaker 1: he's a loser and ads for a brand. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: associated with because they were there for him. It's a
Speaker 1: rock bottom.
Speaker 3: It's like the subtext, Yeah, it's like this is his
Speaker 3: favorite thing, like even at his worst, like Duncan was
Speaker 3: there for him, but they can never acknowledge that, like
Speaker 3: in the commercial where they're like, Duncan is there for
Speaker 3: people even when you've hit the absolute fucking bottom of
Speaker 3: the abyss.
Speaker 2: Yeah okay, which maybe be a hard name. Immersial cafter
Speaker 2: us was how the ad ends. Yeah, okay, what is it?
Speaker 3: It's just an iced coffee with a bunch of a
Speaker 3: lot more creamers in it or something, the seventeen creamers.
Speaker 2: Dude, how do you like them? Duncan's yeah, Matt Damon's
Speaker 2: you know. Fun.
Speaker 1: There was a campaign at about like uber eats where
Speaker 1: it was like, how do I remember that uber eats
Speaker 1: can deliver all this stuff? And it's like, well, for
Speaker 1: everything you new thing you remember, you have to forget
Speaker 1: something and it was just a bunch of people forgetting
Speaker 1: various things. It was that was kind of that felt
Speaker 1: like the most classically executed Super Bowl ad, right, very
Speaker 1: basic premise, doesn't really make sense. Could be for ninety
Speaker 1: other products, right.
Speaker 2: Oh right, the genius product that we should all be remembering.
Speaker 2: I remember it now.
Speaker 1: And they also had a thing where an actor is
Speaker 1: like eating peanut butter and having like an allergic reaction,
Speaker 1: and the joke is like he forgot he was allergic
Speaker 1: to peanuts, or that peanut butter had peanuts in it,
Speaker 1: and that's it. Weird to like have something that seems
Speaker 1: like it's a riff on brain damage in the middle
Speaker 1: of an NFL game, right, Yeah, like the biggest NFL game.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's kind of just a weird ad.
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, shout out to a friend of
Speaker 3: the show, Adam Lustick, who played the man who had
Speaker 3: to have a little bit of peanuts and they had
Speaker 3: to cut that out because yeah, Adam, hey man, I
Speaker 3: hope you look.
Speaker 2: You got the check obviously to be in a Chipable commercial.
Speaker 2: It sucks that they didn't.
Speaker 3: They didn't air your part where you were somehow the
Speaker 3: guy who was about to go into anaphylactic shock was about.
Speaker 2: To die from uh uber eat.
Speaker 1: Uh RFK Junior aired a surprise super pac funded campaign
Speaker 1: ad that reproduced JFK's nineteen sixty campaign ad that I
Speaker 1: was not familiar with. Yeah, but it's just you know,
Speaker 1: it had old timey music, It felt and looked like
Speaker 1: it was from a different time. Basically, it was just
Speaker 1: like images of him looking like just like skiing and shit.
Speaker 1: It like he just looked he just like looked rich,
Speaker 1: which seemed like a weird image for somebody who's like
Speaker 1: trying to be a man.
Speaker 2: Of the people. And were they like accentuating his eye color.
Speaker 2: I felt like his eyes were.
Speaker 3: Really popping out, and they like, yeah, they do some
Speaker 3: monocroshout to make his eyes like bright blue.
Speaker 2: Oh cool. Cool.
Speaker 3: So yeah, vote for the the White Walker to be.
Speaker 2: The fucking night King will be your president.
Speaker 1: So he then apologized to his family on Twitter, claiming
Speaker 1: that the head was created by a super pac without
Speaker 1: any involvement or approval from my campaign. Guys, I'm not
Speaker 1: trying to capitalize off our family name. That's what I
Speaker 1: was not even my dad about.
Speaker 3: I could have went about with my dad, but I
Speaker 3: chose your more popular dad.
Speaker 2: And I know that's kind of scummy.
Speaker 3: But I love how he's doing the fucking same Excuse again, Oh,
Speaker 3: it wasn't my idea.
Speaker 2: It was a super pack. No, I'm not having him.
Speaker 3: I'm not having the birthday party no one wants to
Speaker 3: go to. It was a super pack, the super I planned.
Speaker 3: It always at the last minute when something's that l
Speaker 3: the fucking super pac is the one that came in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, and also yeah, just uh. That apology was
Speaker 1: slightly undercut by the fact that the ad was pinned
Speaker 1: to the top of his profile. He uh was apologizing
Speaker 1: for it.
Speaker 2: I think you know how much that should cost. I
Speaker 2: think it costs seven million for that each ad cost
Speaker 2: seven million. That was so uh. The other thing that
Speaker 2: jumped out to me was Tamu uh tu.
Speaker 3: Mum no, no, I mean I saw the Adam was like,
Speaker 3: what the fuck? Because I remember I think in the
Speaker 3: group chat. I think you referenced someone referenced in the
Speaker 3: group group chat, didn't they Yeah, yeah yeah, And then
Speaker 3: I remember seeing it Yeah, I think it was super
Speaker 3: producer Becca.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
Speaker 1: So the deal with Tamu is like it's like cheaper Amazon, right,
Speaker 1: you can just buy stuff directly from China. It like
Speaker 1: bypasses American warehouses, and the ad just it felt like
Speaker 1: the sales Genie ads from years past. Do you remember
Speaker 1: those where it like the first one happened early two thousands.
Speaker 2: I think, oh yeah, it was like the panda.
Speaker 1: The panda was the more racist like second edition. But
Speaker 1: the first edition was this guy Pierce, and it was
Speaker 1: just it was like an ad out of like an
Speaker 1: eighties infomercial like that was just like randomly in the middle,
Speaker 1: like the quality was terrible. It was just everyone being like,
Speaker 1: hey Pierce, what's with the new car?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: And he's like, you know, just killing it. It was
Speaker 1: just this like random like white guy and like his
Speaker 1: boss was like, hey Pierce, let's go golfing. It was
Speaker 1: just showing this guy like succeed in all these very
Speaker 1: like basic business y ways and then they're like sales Genie,
Speaker 1: Hey Pierce, what's with those sales leads? And my friend
Speaker 1: Shold and I have never stopped talking about it.
Speaker 2: It's so heavy handed.
Speaker 1: It's so heavy handed, like he just has like the
Speaker 1: ve get some wet energy of like an ab sexual predator,
Speaker 1: right right, right, So.
Speaker 2: This one is not like quite that uh, I mean
Speaker 2: tame in that sense. Yeah, that's tame.
Speaker 1: But it just it's like such a like kind of
Speaker 1: basic computer animation. It really felt like it was like
Speaker 1: teleported from a pre Pixar era.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it feels like children's animation from the mid nineties.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just like, oh, this ad is coming to
Speaker 1: us from a different universe than all the other Super
Speaker 1: Bowl ads, And they ran it like three times right
Speaker 1: in like during regulation time in the Super Bowl, so
Speaker 1: you know, seven million dollars a pop. And yeah, super
Speaker 1: producer Becca was saying that, like their business model is
Speaker 1: like sell stuff for cheap, but then they get access
Speaker 1: to your data.
Speaker 2: You know, Oh is it?
Speaker 1: That is the rumor I have not independently verified, but.
Speaker 3: I mean yeah, at the very least, it just feels
Speaker 3: like a thing. We're like, watch this, all the stuff
Speaker 3: they saw on Amazon, we actually got it over here.
Speaker 2: How about we cut them out of it?
Speaker 3: And yeah, here's here's how you get into the fast
Speaker 3: consumer track.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's it doesn't get like even in the
Speaker 1: places where reviews they are pretty you know, usually like
Speaker 1: in the four star range, like it's in the two
Speaker 1: and a half star range and people are like, yeah,
Speaker 1: like this table only had three legs or whatever.
Speaker 3: I feel like that was like the problem with Wish too. Yeah,
Speaker 3: Everyone's like, oh, Wish is so.
Speaker 2: Cool, and then they're like, uh, everything had lead in it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all your favorite products made entirely out of lead.
Speaker 2: Oh's are guarantee? Yeah?
Speaker 3: This wow, this looks like an Eames desk chair, but
Speaker 3: it's actually just made out of lead.
Speaker 2: That's how we make it affordable.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I can't think of a worse product for
Speaker 1: the world right now than an Amazon that sells even shittier,
Speaker 1: junkier stuff like Ason already does at a lower price point.
Speaker 1: Their slogan was like shop like a billionaire, right, which
Speaker 1: is like, oh, you mean like being the main contributor
Speaker 1: to climate change in the end of the world. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's can shop like a billionaire, shop.
Speaker 2: Like a billionaire.
Speaker 3: I think the one thing I saw the guy who
Speaker 3: got like a ten dollars two pay you know how,
Speaker 3: like the characters like in the commercial, right, like they
Speaker 3: would be from like normal and then suddenly acquire stuff.
Speaker 3: This bald headed dude, I feel like he had hair
Speaker 3: all of a sudden said ten dollars like a ten dollars.
Speaker 2: I don't know it like a billionaire. I mean like billionaires.
Speaker 3: I don't stand in the sun with it too long,
Speaker 3: or you will will you are you are combustible and
Speaker 3: we can.
Speaker 2: Be made of ice cream.
Speaker 3: Unfortunately, I think the other thing that people hopefully begin
Speaker 3: to realize is so many of our consumer goods that
Speaker 3: are coming from China like that, there's this whole thing
Speaker 3: where people just like print their own brand name on
Speaker 3: it after going to one supplier and being like, oh,
Speaker 3: this pop socket, I put my company's name on and
Speaker 3: it's now different. But other businesses also are obtaining their
Speaker 3: stock from like the same manufacture. That's why it's so
Speaker 3: weird when you see like identical USB cables or something,
Speaker 3: but they always have like a different brand name on it,
Speaker 3: and you're like, y'all, it's we're all just it's all
Speaker 3: different levels of marketing and you like, I think this
Speaker 3: one's better.
Speaker 2: It's like it's actually the exact same one as this company.
Speaker 2: It is.
Speaker 1: Really it's just like a scam site going mainstream is
Speaker 1: basically what this was, which I guess where we're at,
Speaker 1: Like it's not surprising, but it does seem like, you know,
Speaker 1: the thing we've talked about about like just products getting
Speaker 1: worse and worse because they've just like corporations have all
Speaker 1: the power and they figured out like how to you know,
Speaker 1: make things cheaper and people will still buy them because
Speaker 1: we're confused because you know, there's still a thrill of
Speaker 1: having a thing show up at your house, but like,
Speaker 1: you know, the the idea of I think Emily Heller
Speaker 1: talks about the time that sh ordered a welcome matt
Speaker 1: that's made of like what looks like real grass, and
Speaker 1: like the thing that showed up was a piece of
Speaker 1: cardboard with like a photograph of that like taped onto it,
Speaker 1: and it's like that's the world where.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this was for this was for a this was
Speaker 3: for ten photos of the iPhone.
Speaker 2: Read the fine print. Yeah, so, I mean.
Speaker 1: The fact that that is kind of the name of
Speaker 1: the game these days in capitalism, Like it makes sense
Speaker 1: that TAMU would be debuting with like.
Speaker 2: Three pretty shitty Super Bowl ads.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I'm sure they're like some ships cost seven
Speaker 3: seven million of pop. Like you think we're gonna spend
Speaker 3: we can't. We had we made those animations on an app.
Speaker 1: Right, there was It felt like there were a couple
Speaker 1: ads like that, and some of the Jesus ones felt
Speaker 1: just AI generated for sure.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the the foot washing one was very I was
Speaker 3: really trying to look to be like is this did
Speaker 3: you guys.
Speaker 2: Mid Germany Monny Fingers, mid Germany mid Journey.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, those are some of the things that
Speaker 1: are trending on this Monday morning.
Speaker 2: We are back tomorrow with a whole last episode of
Speaker 2: the show.
Speaker 1: Until then, be kind to each other, be kind to yourself,
Speaker 1: get the vaccine, don't do nothing about white supremacy, and
Speaker 1: we will talk to you all tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Bye bye,
