Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of I
Speaker 1: don't know who you are. I don't know what you want.
Speaker 1: If you're looking for ransom, I can tell you I
Speaker 1: don't have money, but what I do have are a
Speaker 1: very particular set of trends that is courtesy a superproducer, Brian.
Speaker 1: He asked if I was still doing movies with old
Speaker 1: white men in them quotes, and I think we are now, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're doing it, and that is from take In. I
Speaker 1: think most people know that one by now. But yeah,
Speaker 1: we were talking about how much better it would have
Speaker 1: been if every one of the movies was his daughter
Speaker 1: getting kidnapped over and over again, like just the most
Speaker 1: kidnappable daughter. Get it together. Anyways, I am Jack and
Speaker 1: I'm thrilled to be joined by superproducer backup Robbers. What's
Speaker 1: going on? Happy Thursday? It's women Women's History Month, one twelve.
Speaker 1: Y'all get one twelfth of the year. You may have
Speaker 1: one half of the population, you get a twelfth of
Speaker 1: the year. Okay, and you'll be happy with it. But yeah,
Speaker 1: shout out to the Women's History Month. So yeah, Jack
Speaker 1: Dorsey has a new Twitter alternative. I guess he's been
Speaker 1: working on it for a while. It just launched in
Speaker 1: the app Store or as about to as an invite
Speaker 1: only app. And it is called blue Sky. And you
Speaker 1: can tell me that it's supposed to be pronounced blue sky,
Speaker 1: but you put all those letters in one word, and
Speaker 1: I'm calling that ship blue sky. He should have capitalized
Speaker 1: the S. Yes, you had like capitalized the S. I
Speaker 1: really did read it as blue sky. And then I
Speaker 1: like saw the imagery the Tech Crunch article put with it,
Speaker 1: and it's a blue sky like they put the imagery
Speaker 1: of skies. And I was like, oh, yeah, I guess yeah,
Speaker 1: that makes sense, And that is like some shit a
Speaker 1: tech company would think is a good name for an
Speaker 1: absolutely just the most annoying people like tech executives love
Speaker 1: to ask you to blue sky something and it always
Speaker 1: means a different thing. Well, yeah, just blue sky for me.
Speaker 1: Just give me the thirty thousand foot view of it.
Speaker 1: Just give me the Oh I hate that. I hate. No,
Speaker 1: I don't even want the bird's eye. I want to
Speaker 1: the astronaut's eye, you know what I'm saying, The International
Speaker 1: Space Station's eye on on this thing. But just blue sky,
Speaker 1: just everything having to do with space and sky and
Speaker 1: H and Big Brain thinking like, you guys are suffering
Speaker 1: from amphetamine overload. Yes, I feel like all tech executives
Speaker 1: just have a spinal drip, a spinal tap of amphetamines
Speaker 1: just coursing through them at all times. But anyways, I'm
Speaker 1: all for a Twitter alternative. So yeah, hopefully it's good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm curious what it's gonna be like because I feel like, obviously,
Speaker 1: pre Elon Musk of Twitter, Twitter already had had a
Speaker 1: ton of issues from the audience and was known as
Speaker 1: like a vile you know space to begin with, right,
Speaker 1: Like I think before Elon Musk became the owner of Twitter,
Speaker 1: we were all like, yeah, this is a very toxic platform.
Speaker 1: So I am curious as to like, how maybe in
Speaker 1: this new venture of Jack Dorsey, is he going to
Speaker 1: maybe curb some of that negativity or if it's going
Speaker 1: to just be the same thing just now it's called
Speaker 1: Blue Sky and it's not too far. Yeah, probably that
Speaker 1: probably the latter, although I do know that, like when
Speaker 1: Elon Musk fired everyone, it was shocking how big the
Speaker 1: teams were that were dedicated to like keeping things not toxic.
Speaker 1: So it was like just a constant battle, though never
Speaker 1: enough fun and there's just not enough people. Because as
Speaker 1: we're talking about you, if you had enough moderators on
Speaker 1: any of these platforms, you will not be profitable. These
Speaker 1: not these are amazing public services that like are good
Speaker 1: to have if they're properly run. They will never be
Speaker 1: properly run as long as they're for profit institutions, like
Speaker 1: they just need to be you know, subsidized, and yeah, absolutely, yeah. Anyways,
Speaker 1: a story that we talked about, i think last week
Speaker 1: when it first hit the news, was that the oscars
Speaker 1: have a crisis team in place, and the Academy CEO says,
Speaker 1: we've run so many scenarios came up again in our
Speaker 1: pre show conversation and I just I'm starting to like
Speaker 1: really wonder what the scenarios are and like what the
Speaker 1: slap combinations are, absolutely, because it's like, is it just
Speaker 1: the idea that anybody can you know, rush the stage
Speaker 1: or is it like as we were chatting, is it
Speaker 1: is a B level celebrity allowed to hit an A
Speaker 1: level celebrity arcum? Absolutely not. They will take them out
Speaker 1: with a with a fucking sniper. But my question is
Speaker 1: is one of the scenarios Meryl Street apps a B lister, Like,
Speaker 1: if they're being honest, the answer is, we just pretend
Speaker 1: that shit didn't just happen, and we just move on.
Speaker 1: We just play the like the orchestra starts to swell
Speaker 1: and we cut away, Yeah, cut the cameras. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: just move away to a sponsor. It just feels excessive
Speaker 1: to me. A whole team, dedicated. And also I was like,
Speaker 1: you already got rid of the problem in theory, like
Speaker 1: you told Will Smith he can't come back, So why
Speaker 1: do you need a whole crisis team. They because they
Speaker 1: I think they recognize that the slap is the best
Speaker 1: thing that's happened to the Oscars maybe ever. And so yeah,
Speaker 1: it's all anybody's talking about is the these Oscars come back.
Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel will probably have quite a few fun jokes
Speaker 1: about the slap in his monologue. What if it's like
Speaker 1: a more famous person slapping a less famous person like
Speaker 1: Brian threw out the rock slapping Aaron Paul, But that
Speaker 1: is that's like the Rocks pretty famous, but in different categories,
Speaker 1: like totally different categories, you know. And also the rock
Speaker 1: could kill Aaron Paul, Like Paul is a tiny man.
Speaker 1: I would be like a little video game. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: then like do you have to worry about that? Like
Speaker 1: what I think they would still just be like all right,
Speaker 1: movement moving along, which I kind of did in the
Speaker 1: first place. Like I also wonder, like when they're rerunning
Speaker 1: that scenario from last year, like what the fuck are
Speaker 1: you gonna do different? You're gonna like pull Will Smith
Speaker 1: off the stage or like stop him? I guess I
Speaker 1: wonder who is hosting this year? Do we know? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel, Okay, Jimmy Kimmel. Yeah, I just don't imagine
Speaker 1: anything like that's going to happen. Would Jimmy Kimple? Right? Right?
Speaker 1: But I mean the Chris Rock getting slapped by Will Smith,
Speaker 1: Like Chris Rock wasn't the host, was he was country? Oh?
Speaker 1: He was, yeah, the host for the whole show? Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh interesting, So that's I think what happened because he
Speaker 1: was like writing, I mean, and that's why there was
Speaker 1: a lot of controversy with it, because it was just
Speaker 1: like well, like you know, he had a whole team
Speaker 1: of people writing jokes, like it wasn't just like Chris Rock.
Speaker 1: And then there was people being like, well, you know, no,
Speaker 1: Chris Rock went off script for that joke, So that
Speaker 1: was on him, you know, so right, yeah, yeah, Will
Speaker 1: Smith should have done what Hollywood celebrities have done for
Speaker 1: years and just made a note of it and then
Speaker 1: ended the career of anybody involved with writing that joke. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there go. You don't slap the other famous person. That's
Speaker 1: bad for your career. You just silently, silent assassinate everybody
Speaker 1: who had anything to do with it who isn't a
Speaker 1: household name. Oh, because yeah, he can't destroy Chris Rocks.
Speaker 1: Speaking of silent assassinations, producer Brian is suggesting that the
Speaker 1: seat fillers are going to be massad. That's how that's
Speaker 1: how they're gonna deal with it, just going up behind
Speaker 1: people a little, putting them to leap with a chokehold.
Speaker 1: M Zendiah is getting one million an episode for you
Speaker 1: for ye and this is being treated as like, Wow,
Speaker 1: they're really rolling out the cash truck. And my response
Speaker 1: is this is not enough, which I was like at
Speaker 1: first whenever the article, I was like, oh my god, yeah,
Speaker 1: incredible because of the frameming. But the second that you
Speaker 1: Jack pointed out that like at Friends's Peak, they were
Speaker 1: really doing that, So they were doing that for the
Speaker 1: whole cast on a show that was like you know,
Speaker 1: so oh yeah, and like so many episodes the season
Speaker 1: like this, yeah, each episode of the Only Cha there's
Speaker 1: eight episodes. There's eight episodes, and each one is like
Speaker 1: a future film. It's like yeah, and also she is.
Speaker 1: I've only seen the first two episodes still, but her
Speaker 1: performance in those first two episodes are as good as
Speaker 1: any film performance I've seen. Like, she's so good all
Speaker 1: of it, and I will agree with you that she
Speaker 1: is absolutely. I mean, I am a fan. I'm a
Speaker 1: huge fan of Days because I think she's just such
Speaker 1: an incredible actor slash. Everything she touches is like comes
Speaker 1: with so much poise and professionalism that it's just so
Speaker 1: incredible to watch her work. She's so clearly, like very
Speaker 1: dedicated to her craft and what she does. Like the
Speaker 1: reason she even became an it girl on the scene
Speaker 1: is because she was so calculated that people would not
Speaker 1: take her seriously from her Disney days that she just
Speaker 1: started showing up to events looking good as fuck, and
Speaker 1: that was like absolutely calculated with her team, she was like,
Speaker 1: I want to be known as a fashion girl, so
Speaker 1: then they start taking me seriously. In other arenas and
Speaker 1: she did it. She showed up and looks. People started
Speaker 1: booking her for modeling shoots and actually forgot she had
Speaker 1: a singing career, and she was just like, yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't feel like doing that anymore. And then she was like,
Speaker 1: I want to now be a serious actor now that
Speaker 1: they're taking me seriously as a model, and she did
Speaker 1: the damn thing. And now she's literally one of the
Speaker 1: youngest people to ever win an Emmy for producing at
Speaker 1: twenty five. So because that was a part of her
Speaker 1: last contract, I think she's still an EP on this
Speaker 1: coming season, but last season, it was part of our
Speaker 1: contract to be an EP of season two and that
Speaker 1: got her the Emmy for being the youngest producer. And
Speaker 1: so now she's getting a million in episode and as
Speaker 1: an EP. So congrats and day. But like you said, Jack,
Speaker 1: you deserve more. I will say as somebody who tried
Speaker 1: that strategy, you know, in between Cracked and starting the
Speaker 1: Daily Zeitgeist, I spoke to my team and I was like,
Speaker 1: I think my strategy, I just need to start showing
Speaker 1: up two events looking good as fuck, just like become
Speaker 1: a fashion boy. And they were like, first of all,
Speaker 1: why are you calling us, your team, this is your
Speaker 1: parents and wife, and we think you need help or
Speaker 1: you need an audio media. Yeah yeah, yeah. So then
Speaker 1: we started this podcast that was Plan B. You're listening
Speaker 1: to Plan B. But easier said than done. I'll just say,
Speaker 1: in terms of fashion, just showing up and looking good
Speaker 1: in places, being a strategy is you have to have
Speaker 1: a a little bit of the riz as super producer
Speaker 1: on a Josie calls it. That's what the kids are
Speaker 1: calling it. She got it, Zendia got it. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go ahead and say it. And this is, you know,
Speaker 1: mark my words, breaking news. But she's got this it
Speaker 1: thing that people talk about it, that people talk about it.
Speaker 1: I'm my brain is melting. Anyways, let's take a quick
Speaker 1: break and we'll come back and talk about shower oranges.
Speaker 1: And we're back. And the concept of the shower orange
Speaker 1: seems to have caught on on TikTok. It has been
Speaker 1: a thing on Reddit for a while. Uh, there's a
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen Reddit post. You know, the millennials are angry
Speaker 1: at the at the TikTok kids. Now, yeah, oh, you're
Speaker 1: just finding out about the shower orange. Okay, wow, But
Speaker 1: there's a twenty fifteen Reddit post about how great it
Speaker 1: is dat a orange in the shower that then became
Speaker 1: the shower orange subreddit. But basically the idea is that
Speaker 1: eating an orange in the shower is a very pleasant experience.
Speaker 1: I think it works on a few different levels. So
Speaker 1: there's the shower beer that people who drink too much
Speaker 1: are probably familiar with, where you drink a cold beer
Speaker 1: in the shower and it's just extra good. See I've
Speaker 1: never understood that because I take really hot showers, so
Speaker 1: your beer's just gonna get warm really quickly. Well, so
Speaker 1: this is the thing is I think it's only popular
Speaker 1: with alcoholics because I liked it because I drank so
Speaker 1: quickly that the beer never had a chance to get yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: at an astronomically slow pace, if you ask any single
Speaker 1: one of my friends. Right, So I think that was
Speaker 1: my issue. There was what or why it worked out
Speaker 1: so good. It was cold and gone within a minute.
Speaker 1: But also, like everybody has probably experienced the like farting
Speaker 1: in the shower and it being of human rights violations,
Speaker 1: it's the worst smelling thing in the world. Oranges are
Speaker 1: some of the best smelling fruits, so it works on
Speaker 1: that level. And then Becca, as you were pointing out
Speaker 1: the stick, you know, no stick stick. Yeah, it's just
Speaker 1: running running off of you. There. There's probably so they
Speaker 1: My one kind of potential like concern with the shower
Speaker 1: orange is the pulp getting in the I just I
Speaker 1: don't need anything that is going to end with me
Speaker 1: rooting around in the shower drain, because the shower drain
Speaker 1: is the most underratedly foul like yeah, locuses of like
Speaker 1: just dirt hair just it's it's not all making its
Speaker 1: way through the drain like it's it's free time. I'm like, please,
Speaker 1: please don't make me have to get in here later.
Speaker 1: And then, as someone who has incredibly curly hair, I
Speaker 1: do at least once a month have to get in
Speaker 1: there and be like, yeah, it doesn't matter that I
Speaker 1: have a little hair catcher that I clean it out
Speaker 1: every day. It not fail. I got DRAINO, I got
Speaker 1: the giant jug. Oh yeah, no, there's a I mean
Speaker 1: my wife uses a lot of hair products that I
Speaker 1: think goop up the drain a little bit. It's uh,
Speaker 1: I will I will let a drain be slow until
Speaker 1: it's like getting up to my calves. And then I'm
Speaker 1: like all right, we need to we need to do
Speaker 1: something here. This sucks. I can't see my feet because
Speaker 1: the water's cloudy. And yeah, anyways, shout out to the
Speaker 1: shower orange though, um, just be careful where you drop
Speaker 1: those seeds and the pulp and appeals. The Haunted Mansion
Speaker 1: trailer dropped. This is just Disney. They had the success
Speaker 1: of the Pirates of the Caribbean movie and they're just like,
Speaker 1: I'd argue that this isn't use of the success of
Speaker 1: the Parts Security movies because they did have a Hana
Speaker 1: Mansion movie way back in the day, and maybe that
Speaker 1: original movie was during the height of the Parts of
Speaker 1: Curban movie that they were like, okay, a ride became
Speaker 1: a famous movie series, maybe we could try this with
Speaker 1: a Hana Mansion. Because I remember the first one came
Speaker 1: out probably when I was oh it says in two
Speaker 1: thousand and three in our article here, So yeah, I
Speaker 1: was probably in like elementary school, and I remember seeing
Speaker 1: it and really enjoying it. So now this is just
Speaker 1: a remake. Because Disney's in this era of remaking almost
Speaker 1: all other content instead of making new ip They're like, well,
Speaker 1: we got a jillion things that we can remake so
Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna do it and they're modernizing. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Somebody wrote about it as a remake of the other
Speaker 1: the Eddie Murphy film, and yeah, I was like, let's
Speaker 1: not remake because I mean that one just came out.
Speaker 1: Oh it was twenty years ago. Oh my god, I'm old.
Speaker 1: It's fun though. I really like the cast. Luckie Stanfield
Speaker 1: brings the right vibes to it. He had that haunted
Speaker 1: house episode of Atlanta that it feels like he's kind
Speaker 1: of channeling in this. Just yeah, Lackie Stanfield walking through
Speaker 1: a haunted house seems to be like it could be
Speaker 1: its own genre of movie. Well, I'm curious, like the
Speaker 1: relationship of everybody, because it does seem like, I mean,
Speaker 1: to me watching Luckie Stanfield in the trailer, I'm like,
Speaker 1: he does not seem like a father material in this,
Speaker 1: Like he seems like the older brother slash fun uncle vibe.
Speaker 1: It seems like they hire him as a ghost hunter
Speaker 1: or that. But he was like fun with these ghosts
Speaker 1: kind of in the trailers. So yeah, yeah, yeah, that's true. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, so Owen Wilson is a priest who pays
Speaker 1: Lacki Stanfield two thousand dollars to like go into the
Speaker 1: haunted mansion after Rosario Dawson and her family move in
Speaker 1: and seemed freaked out, and then Danny DeVito just shows
Speaker 1: up to beat any DeVito. Yeah, it seems like a
Speaker 1: lot as I'm gonna watch it, and it's made by
Speaker 1: the filmmaker who made Dear White People. Oh, that it's
Speaker 1: gonna be a blast. I really loved Dear White People. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I think it'll be fun. It's definitely gonna be
Speaker 1: a lot more lighthearted. I feel like the original one
Speaker 1: was actually kind of dark for like movie. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: was a little bit. It was like because like the
Speaker 1: story from it was like the wife, like Eddie Murphy's
Speaker 1: wife was reminiscent of one of the women ghosts in
Speaker 1: the house, and so it was like this weird like
Speaker 1: she's trying to find out if she's related to this ghost,
Speaker 1: and like she is, and then there's like this prophecy
Speaker 1: kind of tell me if I'm wrong, y'all, because like
Speaker 1: this is just like me pulling from my memory watching
Speaker 1: it twenty years ago in theaters. But it was just
Speaker 1: like this vibe where they like move in and then
Speaker 1: there's like this weird connection in the house between the
Speaker 1: family and the house, and then they realized that, like
Speaker 1: his wife is like a reinc nation of this ghost
Speaker 1: that's in the house and that's why it's like haunting
Speaker 1: them or whatever, and like they're all kind of like
Speaker 1: discovering what's going on and like ooh, whereas like this
Speaker 1: one feels more like a like a Clue vibe where
Speaker 1: it's like people are coming in and they're like like
Speaker 1: or Scooby Doo more than Clue. Yes, where the ghosts
Speaker 1: are a little more scary than I remember them in
Speaker 1: the original cause CGI is just better today. But um yeah,
Speaker 1: the original one I think was a little bit more
Speaker 1: of a drama in terms of the storyline. So yeah,
Speaker 1: so anyways, interesting, that's that's our trailer watch for the day.
Speaker 1: Um Becca, where can people find you? Follow you all
Speaker 1: that good stuff? You can find and follow me at
Speaker 1: x ramos, the ECCS Ramos on all platforms that out
Speaker 1: the Mundos in Bushwick every other weekend. Yeah yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: Well that is going to do it for us back
Speaker 1: tomorrow with the whole last episode of the show. Until then,
Speaker 1: be kind to each other, Be kind to yoursels, get
Speaker 1: the vaccine, don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we'll
Speaker 1: talk to you all tomorrow. Bye, bye, m
