Speaker 1: Don't laugh by don't laugh.
Speaker 2: We're being serious now. It's not funny and nothing is funny.
Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought that up. Nothing's funny.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: This is serious. Let's give them the facts.
Speaker 3: Yes, the first fact, the first fact. We'd like to
Speaker 3: call this episode Facts for the Afternoon. The first fact
Speaker 3: we are going to give you. This is a very
Speaker 3: fascinating story that we're here hearing about. We are going
Speaker 3: to have another Matrix film. It does sound like yes,
Speaker 3: And this sounds.
Speaker 1: Like a joke when we talk, there's there's gonna be
Speaker 1: a new Matrix movie. I'm sorry, I'm not professionally, we're back. Sorry,
Speaker 1: we had to do it. Yeah, sorry, the programming just
Speaker 1: doesn't it just doesn't work for that long. But anyway,
Speaker 1: there's a new Matrix movie apparently coming out. This one
Speaker 1: will be directed by Drew Goddard, who made The Martian
Speaker 1: and Cabin in the Woods. It will be executive produced
Speaker 1: by Lana Wachowski, uh the co director of the Originals
Speaker 1: and also made the last one, Resurrections. I don't know
Speaker 1: who is going to be in it from the cast,
Speaker 1: but it sounds like the press release does make it
Speaker 1: sound like the new movie is going to be like
Speaker 1: an extension of the existing franchise rather than you know,
Speaker 1: like a remake or a reboot, because like we do,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, like a reboot, like a full on reboot
Speaker 1: of the Matrix would be disastrous, I think, and no
Speaker 1: one should do that.
Speaker 2: Just leave it alone.
Speaker 1: We already have enough problems societally because of what the
Speaker 1: fucking Matrix even had people thinking. And you still have
Speaker 1: people to this day be like you we folk with
Speaker 1: the Matrix. Yeah, yes, I do.
Speaker 2: We don't. This thing doesn't need to be reloaded again,
Speaker 2: you know, no, let it be.
Speaker 1: What do you do after it's You've been reloaded, You've
Speaker 1: been resurrected, you've been revolutionized. Yes, well then what the
Speaker 1: fuck comes after that?
Speaker 2: Uh? Coronated?
Speaker 1: Does that have to be an R word?
Speaker 2: And our Oh I guess it does. Restored the Matrix,
Speaker 2: Matrix restored. It's so not captivating it's been restored. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's the digital remix, the remastering.
Speaker 1: Oh, the Matrix remix remix. That would be with like
Speaker 1: Dancehall airhorns and then.
Speaker 2: All the bullets just travel even slower.
Speaker 1: Yeah, ohow, yeah, not good. I was such a big
Speaker 1: Matrix fan. I actually have not seen the latest one
Speaker 1: because at the time I think it was like just
Speaker 1: in the pandemic and I was just so I mean,
Speaker 1: the pandemic continues, but I was just so like, hm.
Speaker 2: What the fuck?
Speaker 1: Man, Like just I'm just gonna keep watching The Simpsons over.
Speaker 2: And over again for no more variables. We need to
Speaker 2: do it now, Yeah, Simpson's the Office.
Speaker 1: The way I regressed, like into a time machine, I
Speaker 1: was watching The Waynes Brothers show. I mean, I U
Speaker 1: still love the Wayne's Brothers as a kid, and like
Speaker 1: watching it again, I was like they kind of they
Speaker 1: actually touched on some really good topics on that show.
Speaker 1: Watching it in hindsight Jamie Fox Show, I mean, they
Speaker 1: all age a little bit weird, but the Jamie Fox
Speaker 1: show age is particularly weird because Jamie's character like just
Speaker 1: never took no from an as an answer from a woman,
Speaker 1: and You're like.
Speaker 2: That's tough.
Speaker 1: Yeah, He's like, come on, go on a date with me,
Speaker 1: and like let me just hound you. The whole time
Speaker 1: You're like, oh, JAMEI and like even the fucking characters
Speaker 1: like oh Jamie, and I'm like, oh Jamie, No.
Speaker 2: I really wish this scene would end really soon. It
Speaker 2: was like, oh, here it is again. Okay, all right,
Speaker 2: they keep doing that.
Speaker 1: Please please. But anyway, Lana Wachowski said that the movie
Speaker 1: the reason why it's coming back, apparently it was the
Speaker 1: deaths of her parents and sort of that's what kind
Speaker 1: of motivated her to sort of make the film and
Speaker 1: like cope with all the grief. Just said, my dad died,
Speaker 1: then his then this friend died, then my mom died.
Speaker 1: I didn't really know how to process that kind of grief.
Speaker 1: I hadn't experienced it that closely, and then just said,
Speaker 1: it's just going through my imagination. One night it just
Speaker 1: hit me and I was crying. I couldn't sleep, and
Speaker 1: my brain exploded to this whole story and I couldn't
Speaker 1: have any mom and dad yet suddenly I had Neo
Speaker 1: and Trinity arguably the most most important characters in my life.
Speaker 1: So yeah, it could be good. I mean sweet never Yeah,
Speaker 1: did you ever have did you ever dress like the Matrix? I?
Speaker 2: Unintentionally I had the ugliest pair of unintentionally I wore
Speaker 2: a leather horse like it.
Speaker 1: Unintentionally Matrix.
Speaker 2: That was a tough one. Yeah, it was just a
Speaker 2: bad style, is really what it was.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 2: I had those sunglasses where I don't know if they
Speaker 2: were ever in fashion where it was like the smaller lenses,
Speaker 2: you know that that covered the eye and nothing else.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like hacker glasses.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, Gami Loft just calls them. Yeah, hacker glasses
Speaker 2: is so funny, That's what it was like.
Speaker 1: Little yeah frames.
Speaker 2: And in middle school I did wear a massive leather
Speaker 2: cape as well, So I don't know if it's no,
Speaker 2: I didn't. I didn't know, But how sick would that
Speaker 2: have been a cloak?
Speaker 1: I would have believed it? Wait, what was that one
Speaker 1: guess that one time we had on where you said
Speaker 1: you were the sausage king of like Carolina or like
Speaker 1: fucking Philadelphia, and it just completely was absorbed. I do
Speaker 1: you remember when it's happened. I think I were you
Speaker 1: were co hosting, and I still think of that time
Speaker 1: of your delivery being too slick, that it just completely
Speaker 1: went over that some of the guests had and they're like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: uh huh, that sausage thing.
Speaker 2: That happened to correct it. No, I've saw you af
Speaker 2: and then I saw you do the mental gymnastics of
Speaker 2: is this something? Do I be a good Samaritan?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Exactly. Don't believe he's a liar. He lies, that's his snake. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I did something like that in high school. I told
Speaker 2: my class someone said their dentist used the thing that
Speaker 2: sucks stuff out of your mouth like water, salive or whatever.
Speaker 2: They called it, mister thirsty.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it was suction tube.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and like, oh, like here comes mister thirsty. Which
Speaker 2: is true that that happened in the story, and then
Speaker 2: I said, that's what we call our pet camel, our
Speaker 2: family camel. And then they moved on and people just thought,
Speaker 2: I my family had a pet. The Wexler's had a camel,
Speaker 2: which we which we didn't and I never correct.
Speaker 1: Energy is so interesting that somehow it's so malleable to
Speaker 1: someone that it could be like, yeah, he has a
Speaker 1: camel and he's a sausage King of Philly. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: yeah enough, Yeah that's his gio. Oh he looked, he
Speaker 1: looks it.
Speaker 2: Sorry, which one's true? Is he this? You can't be both,
Speaker 2: So which one's true? Is he the sausage King of
Speaker 2: Filly or does he have a pet camel named mister
Speaker 2: Thirsty too?
Speaker 1: Truth is in a lie, I'm the sausage king of.
Speaker 2: Two truths in a ie.
Speaker 1: Hello everyone, Wow, he's back, folks. He's back, and he's
Speaker 1: he's he's expressed up worse than ever.
Speaker 2: It is bad.
Speaker 1: Let mean, Also, this is what happens when you co hosts.
Speaker 1: I'm like, now We're just gonna be chatting shit the
Speaker 1: whole time, and I'm trying to tell people what the
Speaker 1: fuck is trending on the internet.
Speaker 2: We need to know. Everyone needs to know.
Speaker 1: Everyone does need to know. Actually, the next thing that
Speaker 1: is trending.
Speaker 2: Let me look here.
Speaker 1: I have so many tabs that I think my computer
Speaker 1: it's okay, it's smoking and not the good kind.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk. Yes, Charlie Kirk is trending because I think,
Speaker 1: you know, whenever, like Charlie Kirk has some new thing
Speaker 1: that he's like screaming about. It's a good indicator of
Speaker 1: that sort of how the Republicans or the like, the
Speaker 1: Conservatives are trying to mainstream a terrible backwards idea. And
Speaker 1: now it's clear because of like the full on on
Speaker 1: soughd on body autonomy, abortion access, it's now it's clear
Speaker 1: that they're coming for birth control too. Like it they
Speaker 1: they keep whittling away at birth control again. Is first
Speaker 1: it being like immoral, being like it's not good for people.
Speaker 1: Now this time it's Charlie Kirk. He's saying that. Just
Speaker 1: listen to him. This is this is his attack on
Speaker 1: birth control, which I'm sure we'll start. We're gonna hear
Speaker 1: a lot more of on Fox News probably coming up.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 4: A lot of them are on birth control too, and
Speaker 4: birth control like really screws up female brains. By the way,
Speaker 4: every single one of you to make sure that your
Speaker 4: loved ones are not on birth control. It increases depression, anxiety,
Speaker 4: suicidal ideation. Birth Control is the number one most prescribed
Speaker 4: medication for young ladies under the age of twenty five.
Speaker 4: They will give birth young ladies birth control for pimples,
Speaker 4: for acne, for to control their moods, their period. It is.
Speaker 4: It is awful, it's terrible, and it creates very bitter.
Speaker 1: Young ladies cutting up.
Speaker 4: That then manifests to a political party that is the
Speaker 4: bitter party. I mean, the Democrat party is all about
Speaker 4: bring us your bitterness. It's like we'll trade you, you know,
Speaker 4: bitterness for stuff. Essentially, that's like the Democrat Party.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is just there's nowhere to start because it's
Speaker 1: obviously just a bunch of fucking horseshit, because they're trying
Speaker 1: to bring this into the discourse about the dangers of it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's basically the birth control to Democrat pipeline, I feel
Speaker 1: like is the also part. It's like, hey, if you
Speaker 1: don't care about your family's mental health, then maybe here
Speaker 1: about this. Maybe you're an in cell or misogynist and
Speaker 1: you want to have a convenient way to blame some
Speaker 1: external factor and not your own repulsiveness as a human
Speaker 1: for your lack of human connection. It's birth control screwing
Speaker 1: up their brains.
Speaker 2: Man, it's overprescribed.
Speaker 1: That's what's going on.
Speaker 2: Everyone's on it. Liberal men are on it. He also,
Speaker 2: it's weird because it says his Wikipedia says he's thirty,
Speaker 2: but he has the eyes and brow of one hundred
Speaker 2: and fourteen year old man and the chin of a fetus.
Speaker 2: So it looks like his chin receives some sort of
Speaker 2: birth control that prevented it from coming to term.
Speaker 1: What an interesting analysis of Charlie Kirk's face he just gave.
Speaker 2: It's crazy obviously, all all his political and not it's
Speaker 2: not political, it's you know, he has no humanity whatsoever,
Speaker 2: and he's an awful monster and.
Speaker 1: Whatever whatever has to be said, he'll say it.
Speaker 2: Yeah anyway.
Speaker 1: Again, it's also, this is just part and parcel of
Speaker 1: like how the GOP and Conservatives work. It's like, Hi,
Speaker 1: i have no expertise in the field of medicine, but
Speaker 1: I'm about to fucking say some shit that all of
Speaker 1: you need to listen to as if it is the
Speaker 1: gospel truth handed down from the scientific medical community. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just a man. November. Take your time, I keep
Speaker 1: saying as I think about, take your time, take your time,
Speaker 1: Take whenever.
Speaker 2: You get a shot. Yeah, whenever you get a chance. November. Yeah,
Speaker 2: no rush.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The other thing is billionaires are trending, not just
Speaker 1: like because it's so in and fashionable. I guess it is.
Speaker 1: When you think about this headline from the Guardian, all
Speaker 1: billionaires under thirty have inherited their wealth. Three research finds
Speaker 1: no fucking shit Like this is what a lot of
Speaker 1: people have talked about the first wave of the great
Speaker 1: wealth transfer. As you know, as these older people, you know,
Speaker 1: some still hanging around from the Silent generation somehow all
Speaker 1: the way to the boomers. It's time to just hand
Speaker 1: over the keys to the young kids and hopefully they
Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean, we'll see what this wave
Speaker 1: of young billionaires looks like. But it is interesting that
Speaker 1: that stat like just clearly the people who are like,
Speaker 1: there's like a nineteen year old billionaire right now just
Speaker 1: because like their grand their their father was like owned
Speaker 1: the like like the luxotica that makes like all the
Speaker 1: sunglasses or whatever. But yeah, they said. Over the next
Speaker 1: This is from the Swiss Bank, UBS said quote, during
Speaker 1: the next twenty to thirty years, over one thousand of
Speaker 1: today's billionaires are likely to transfer more than five point
Speaker 1: two trillion dollars to their heirs. How do we calculate
Speaker 1: this number? Simply by adding up the wealth of they
Speaker 1: twenty three billionaires who age seventy or more today. Wow, great, cool,
Speaker 1: cool cool.
Speaker 2: I would imagine ninety nine percent of billionaires over the
Speaker 2: age of sixty also inherited their wealth. Yeah, I know,
Speaker 2: Like it's just is the same thing over and over
Speaker 2: and over again, exactly.
Speaker 1: Oh man, could you imagine like I didn't, like I
Speaker 1: think of stuff like, oh, I wonder if like, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, like my grandparents' time share, Like do I
Speaker 1: get that? You know what I mean? Do I get
Speaker 1: this car that like my dad has or some shit.
Speaker 1: But if you're if you're looking at your fucking like
Speaker 1: parents grandparents, like I can't wait for this motherfucker to die.
Speaker 1: It's like it's a wild position to be it because
Speaker 1: I will be balling out of fucking control the second
Speaker 1: they stop. That's wow, wow, wow, wow.
Speaker 2: What would you rather have? What would you a racist father?
Speaker 2: For their or.
Speaker 1: Their money or their money, yeah and their money switch
Speaker 1: that out, yeah or both. But yeah, I think that
Speaker 1: this also says that because of it, millennials, apparently we
Speaker 1: are poised to be the richest generation in history. Just
Speaker 1: need just need more, I guess of the elders to
Speaker 1: pass some stuff on.
Speaker 2: Can I ask you a question, like us as the richest,
Speaker 2: does that have anything to do with like a inflation?
Speaker 2: And then b is that evenly distributed amongst US millennials
Speaker 2: or is that like some millennials or is that.
Speaker 1: No, they're just saying it's probably because generationally where millennials
Speaker 1: are at, they're gonna be the first generation to be
Speaker 1: able to scoop up a lot of this money and
Speaker 1: then they'll piss it down to gen and Alpha or whatever.
Speaker 1: We call them, the iPad children of the earth. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but yeah, anyway, again, I'd love to see a change
Speaker 1: of heart from billionaire kids. Maybe maybe do something fucking
Speaker 1: piss off your grandpa or something with your by funding
Speaker 1: you know, abortion access or something like that. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: try that, And I get it. You can't say that
Speaker 1: out loud and you have to play the part or else,
Speaker 1: maybe that elderly parent grandparent will be like, I'm not
Speaker 1: giving you a fucking dime. The weird shit that you've
Speaker 1: said about equality. Hell no, you're probably gonna give this
Speaker 1: sh it away.
Speaker 2: Bottle that up, and then when they finally die, just say,
Speaker 2: you know what, you don't even have to ruin your reputation,
Speaker 2: say a liberal stole it, and then magically it made
Speaker 2: its way right Like.
Speaker 1: This slave money has been in our family for generations.
Speaker 1: Have you piss it away suddenly? No? No, no, no.
Speaker 2: No, do not do not, do not disrespect your elder.
Speaker 1: Uh whatever, but insert name of dynastic slave family here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Ernest Bell, Yes, the Ernest Belvidere. And if you're an
Speaker 1: Ernest Belvidere, hit us up to you know, we're down
Speaker 1: to take some money and we'll do whatever you want
Speaker 1: with it. We'll not spend it if you want. If
Speaker 1: you want us to save it, we'll save it, and
Speaker 1: by that we will spend it.
Speaker 2: We also love to accrue interest. Yeah, so whatever that
Speaker 2: percent is, it's not up to me.
Speaker 1: Yeah you and guess what my crew is interested in
Speaker 1: your money. And maybe we'll just rob you. I don't know,
Speaker 1: we'll see anyway. Just words, just just semantics words. All right,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.
Speaker 1: And we're back. Taiwan is trending because rescue operations are
Speaker 1: happening right now. There was a seven point four magnitude
Speaker 1: earthquake that right now it's killed nine people. Many are
Speaker 1: injured at least in that they're saying nearing a thousand.
Speaker 1: There are people trapped in tunnels and some other things.
Speaker 1: It's really really really grim. It's the strongest earthquake to
Speaker 1: hit taiwans is nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 2: There have been and there's there are earthquakes over there,
Speaker 2: like it's not like oh oh yeah, yeah, just.
Speaker 1: All over I mean Asia in general. I mean like
Speaker 1: it's there's just a lot of earthquakes and you know
Speaker 1: a lot of buildings, Like you see, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of stories coming up about how like the larger buildings
Speaker 1: are protected with all these like counterbalances. It's wild to
Speaker 1: see like the actual technology that is employed in a
Speaker 1: building for like, no, this like massive sphere is just
Speaker 1: gonna be like a counterweight, so the thing doesn't just
Speaker 1: like wobble and snap in half. So that's how those
Speaker 1: buildings are still afloat. But yeah, just earthquakes. I mean
Speaker 1: I was in Earth. I was in Japan right after
Speaker 1: that other big earthquake happened at the beginning of the year. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it's they're not they're not fun. Although there's some
Speaker 1: footage of like there's like this Taiwanese like newscaster who
Speaker 1: like through the earthquake is just like unphased. And I
Speaker 1: get it. When you live in an area that is
Speaker 1: pretty earthquakes are common, you just kind of have that thing,
Speaker 1: like all my relatives and there's an earthquake, theys go,
Speaker 1: oh earthquake, mm hmm. And meanwhile, like her majesty, she'll
Speaker 1: be she's not used to earthquakes, like even because she
Speaker 1: didn't even grow up in California like I did, where
Speaker 1: we have earthquakes, She's like.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, what do we need to go.
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, man, like it's I hit, it happen.
Speaker 2: What are you gonna fucking do?
Speaker 1: Like, it's we're okay, We're okay. Luckily we're not in
Speaker 1: like it terribly. We're not horribly built building or anything
Speaker 1: like that. But yes, it is.
Speaker 2: It is all perspective with that. I remember I've been
Speaker 2: you know, knock on Wood fortunate enough to be never
Speaker 2: be in one of the bigger earthquakes that you can
Speaker 2: be in. But years ago I was doing San Francisco
Speaker 2: Sketch Fest and they were doing some of the shows
Speaker 2: in the I think it was like the San Francis
Speaker 2: or California Academy of Sciences or something like one of
Speaker 2: these museums, and they hadn't exhibit. I don't know if
Speaker 2: it's still there where. Uh it's they reinvate it's yes,
Speaker 2: a living room that they made shake yeah like like
Speaker 2: and it was supposed to re enact what a whatever
Speaker 2: the magnitude of earthquake was that the huge one in
Speaker 2: San Francisco, and I remember being I knew what was
Speaker 2: going to happen. It wasn't one of these I walked
Speaker 2: in there. I knew it wasn't real. And the lack
Speaker 2: of control that you feel in that situation, where to
Speaker 2: the Majesty's credit, you you don't understand it's it's incomprehensible
Speaker 2: unless you felt it beforewards. Oh so everything's moving, everything,
Speaker 2: everything that's still no that that tea cup right there completely.
Speaker 1: The earth underneath me is wild'n out right now.
Speaker 2: It's quaking. Are you telling me that the earth is
Speaker 2: quaking CRRCT.
Speaker 1: They had one of those two at the California in LA.
Speaker 1: There was also like I think just because we have
Speaker 1: earthquakes like all up and down California, that like this
Speaker 1: must have been like a thing that all these places had,
Speaker 1: like yeah, go ahead, the couch, I'm going to rock
Speaker 1: the fuck out of you. Yes, yes, yeah, anyway, So
Speaker 1: I hope that the rescue operations are successful because earthquakes
Speaker 1: are very fucking scared. Have you been in one?
Speaker 2: Have you experienced some small small ones in LA? Like
Speaker 2: never really? I was in a high rise once for one,
Speaker 2: and it woke when you're woken up out of a
Speaker 2: dead sleep, by wan, that's pretty oh scared. I'm trying
Speaker 2: to think of what states of mind that would be
Speaker 2: the most concerned or the worst times to have one.
Speaker 2: I guess like being woken out of a dead sleep
Speaker 2: was pretty bad. But also if you're just going about
Speaker 2: your day and you're fully aware, that's not good either.
Speaker 1: I feel like taking a ship would be really bad
Speaker 1: because you're already like I'm surrendering to the toilet right now,
Speaker 1: and if it's shaking, I'm like, do I need to
Speaker 1: prioritize like running out of here a shitty mess, or
Speaker 1: just being comfortably just you know, take me having a
Speaker 1: bowel movement.
Speaker 2: It's the most spots I have.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yo, man, if a fucking earthquake happen, I
Speaker 1: don't know if I will get up, I'll just be like, Yo,
Speaker 1: let's just fucking let's do This's.
Speaker 2: How do I want to be found? Do? I Like,
Speaker 2: if my percent of survival running out and to use
Speaker 2: your it's a shitty mess, is like three percent more
Speaker 2: likely to survive, It's like, I'll just take whatever comes
Speaker 2: my way. If it's ten, still probably twenty. I clearly
Speaker 2: want to die. In this scenario it's a ninety nine
Speaker 2: percent chance of survival, I'm probably staying in that bag on.
Speaker 1: Bring it on. Yeah, Honestly, I had the other day
Speaker 1: like there was a like all right, maybe too much
Speaker 1: that there's a package that I had to have I
Speaker 1: had to sign for that it was coming. I was
Speaker 1: on the toilet and part of me was like, maybe
Speaker 1: I'll just let them put this thing up and I'll
Speaker 1: just go to the FedEx place to pick it up.
Speaker 1: And I really had to. Then I had to very
Speaker 1: frantically get out it's again. And that's when I realized, Man,
Speaker 1: in a lot of situations, I may just die on.
Speaker 2: The toilet, yeah, or you could surprise yourself where I've
Speaker 2: had a similar situation. But it's like, I really wanted
Speaker 2: this package. It's like a new jacket that I wanted,
Speaker 2: and it's like, you know what, I've never been able
Speaker 2: to stop the toilet process before in my life. I
Speaker 2: wanted that jacket so bad. I was like, nobody, you
Speaker 2: are done, this is done for now. Wash My hands
Speaker 2: ran out signed for.
Speaker 1: You had That's because you wanted to sign for a
Speaker 1: jacket that you wanted and I had to just make
Speaker 1: sure it was my dog's heart medication. A big difference.
Speaker 1: But look, priorities, priority, I hear you. It's different, man,
Speaker 1: these pet meds. They're so fucking expensive, dude, They're so expensive. Yo, man,
Speaker 1: somebody sponsor me please, heart Guard, Next Guard, Trifectus, Paraguard, Frontline,
Speaker 1: all this other shit.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: I got two cats and a dog man and a
Speaker 1: baby now too. Bro, My god, please look, if you
Speaker 1: see me doing an ad for you know, fucking Boeing
Speaker 1: or something in the future, just please know, listeners, I
Speaker 1: need a bag to help offset some of these prescription,
Speaker 1: pet costs and childcare because my values have changed anyway.
Speaker 1: And then finally, last thing that's trending, George Carlin is
Speaker 1: trending because I remember the dudez Ai George Carlin set
Speaker 1: that went up and everyone's like, oh, yeah, is this
Speaker 1: what the fuck is going on? So apparently Carlin's estate
Speaker 1: has settled their lawsuit with dude z and it's basically
Speaker 1: coming down and yeah, it's it's there, it is they
Speaker 1: it's it's no longer a problem for the carl and estate.
Speaker 1: I think the bigger thing here was whether or not
Speaker 1: it was actually written by AI, because that was the
Speaker 1: thing that was very contentious, Like the voice thing, sure,
Speaker 1: like there's AI voice models, but the thing that I
Speaker 1: think I was dubious about too was just sort of
Speaker 1: like this whole thing about like no man, it listened
Speaker 1: to all of his material and then like the Cadence
Speaker 1: and all that, and then it just it just made
Speaker 1: it just.
Speaker 2: That's how it did it.
Speaker 1: But again, there there was like a there was an
Speaker 1: article that came out that pretty much laid out in
Speaker 1: detail like how it came together and spoiler alert, because
Speaker 1: AI is bullshit. It wasn't because of that people writing
Speaker 1: fucking jokes but doing it not as good as George Carlin,
Speaker 1: because no one is as good as George Carlin at
Speaker 1: writing George Carlin material.
Speaker 2: So that's there's that. I like picturing that these people
Speaker 2: were so committed to the bit where it's like, yeah, podcast,
Speaker 2: if you just say you wrote it, you will not
Speaker 2: be sued for all this money. And they're like, no,
Speaker 2: it was the AI that did it. It's so bad. Also,
Speaker 2: they didn't want to admit it. That's like, yeah, we
Speaker 2: will have AI.
Speaker 1: I didn't think that was funny either.
Speaker 2: No, I didn't think it was so unfunny. It was
Speaker 2: so not funny. AI was not funny.
Speaker 1: I was so I'm so glad you pointed out, like
Speaker 1: I was screaming at the AI being like, dude, this
Speaker 1: shit is not even as funny as you think it is, dude.
Speaker 2: But that's what it wrote, you know. And so we're funny,
Speaker 2: just so you know, just so we're all on the
Speaker 2: same page. We're funny. We're very funny. Yeah, if we
Speaker 2: were to write that it would have come out a
Speaker 2: lot better. It was the AI that was the problem.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And that's like to me, that's a problem with AI.
Speaker 1: So that's kind of where I'm at. Yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: Well that's it for us, that's it for what's trending.
Speaker 1: We'll be back tomorrow with a brand spanking new episode
Speaker 1: with this voice, these voices you hear now, plus a
Speaker 1: third and maybe even.
Speaker 2: One who knows, maybe even six.
Speaker 1: Jack might be on a bit of a sabbatical for
Speaker 1: a little bit, or maybe a couple of days, or
Speaker 1: maybe not. Maybe he'll be back. I don't know. Stay tuned.
Speaker 1: The mystery does continue, all right. Until then, take care
Speaker 1: of yourselves, take care of each other, you know, get
Speaker 1: the vaccine at least two hundred times, like that man
Speaker 1: in Germany did, because look he's okay, he's okay, get
Speaker 1: shit two hundred seventeen times. He got the shit two
Speaker 1: hundred and seventeen, two hundred seventeen times exactly. And don't do
Speaker 1: nothing about white supremacy. Okay, be a good person out there,
Speaker 1: because the world is already fucked up. Okay, we will
Speaker 1: talk to you tomorrow. Bless you, Bye bye.
