Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this little it's just
Speaker 1: a little a news boosh you get it, like instead
Speaker 1: of in amos boosh mosith akin really good worth one
Speaker 1: of those ones that's like we must have done this before.
Speaker 2: This is so good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's just right on the sweet spot of
Speaker 1: the racket, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Anyways, thank you.
Speaker 3: Thank you for that.
Speaker 4: But like you know, then sometimes we will accept things
Speaker 4: that go outside of the form of you know, geist
Speaker 4: or trend.
Speaker 3: And here we are.
Speaker 1: I'm Jack O'Brien. That's what I can tell you. That
Speaker 1: that damn much. Okay, that right there, Well, I'm pretty
Speaker 1: sure that's Miles Gray.
Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure i am too, But I don't know anymore,
Speaker 4: you know, because I'm getting up there in the years,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Yeah, where's like you could be a lineman for one
Speaker 1: of the good ones, one of the uh you know
Speaker 1: or whatever. Anyways, we're talking about the fogy old brain
Speaker 1: of one Joe Biden.
Speaker 3: Our commander in chief.
Speaker 1: So he finally went to Maui two weeks after one
Speaker 1: of the worst natural disasters in the history of the
Speaker 1: United States, and he's just he just seems like the
Speaker 1: people are asking if he fell asleep at one point
Speaker 1: on stage during one of the memorials. Should we play
Speaker 1: the quote where he tells the.
Speaker 4: Guy that he looks like So this I think like
Speaker 4: one of the first things he's like, he comments, this
Speaker 4: isn't in the clip, but he like commented about like
Speaker 4: the ground being hot and stuff, and you're like, you're
Speaker 4: walking through a place a fire has just come through.
Speaker 4: Try and just like keep your comments to things that
Speaker 4: are relevant. But anyway, here he is at his press
Speaker 4: conference with some really interesting ideas.
Speaker 5: And Mayor Rick Rick when we talked on phone, I
Speaker 5: never you look like you played in defensive tackle for
Speaker 5: I don't know who. Somebody good any rate? Thank you
Speaker 5: for your leadership and this unimaginable during the sun Imaginal.
Speaker 3: Travity, Travity, Yeah, oh yeah, shout out Travity. Scott got
Speaker 3: a new album out, Like.
Speaker 2: What oh boy?
Speaker 1: That is not a good How is this motherfucker the
Speaker 1: only thing standing between us and a Donald Trump presidency?
Speaker 3: Wow?
Speaker 1: How is this where you have put us the Democratic Party?
Speaker 2: Holy shit?
Speaker 3: This is this your king?
Speaker 1: He is barely holding it together. You guys like it
Speaker 1: put him out of his misery, just like somebody come
Speaker 1: talk to him and just be like, hey, it's all over.
Speaker 1: You're good, You're good, you're good. Actually we we've discovered,
Speaker 1: like you're we're better off if you just kind of
Speaker 1: take a nice long nap.
Speaker 3: Dude, you would be sick.
Speaker 4: Is if you supported the candidate for president and you
Speaker 4: just stepped to the side.
Speaker 3: That could be something else, but hey.
Speaker 2: It definitely would be Kamala, which is I don't know who.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't think Kamala could be wording no.
Speaker 4: She at least is like there, yeah, like and wouldn't
Speaker 4: you know, granted not the most charismatic at times, but
Speaker 4: still like has a mind that is intact. But this
Speaker 4: is just so it's just hard to watch, man, And
Speaker 4: I hate like sounding like some like maga dude, like
Speaker 4: this guy.
Speaker 3: Is so old, but it's like so fucking hard to watch.
Speaker 1: He's so old, he's so bad at being a politician
Speaker 1: at this point.
Speaker 3: Yeah he's not really, I'm not, you know.
Speaker 4: And again that's why, like I get why everyone's pointing
Speaker 4: like back one year ago to the Inflation Reduction Act
Speaker 4: to be like he did that, and yeah he did,
Speaker 4: he did.
Speaker 2: And now it's time to step aside.
Speaker 1: I mean, the thing is, like, I don't know, I'm
Speaker 1: down for whatever is going to give that the best
Speaker 1: chance of winning the election, and if keeping him like
Speaker 1: propped up is going to but it just doesn't feel
Speaker 1: like it possibly could. Now if the alternative is Kamala Harris,
Speaker 1: then maybe that is, but like, why does the alternative
Speaker 1: need to be Kamala Harris at this point?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 4: It's probably really cynical triangulation from the DNC to like
Speaker 4: try and like, you know, really shore up the black
Speaker 4: vote because right now we look at how the like
Speaker 4: black male celebrities are going, right, and yeah, just trying
Speaker 4: to fucking find like, you know, the support. It might
Speaker 4: go in a different direction in certain demographics, but this
Speaker 4: is just whatever. You know, you show up two weeks
Speaker 4: late to this terrible fucking disaster.
Speaker 3: Mind you they say that around eight hundred and fifty
Speaker 3: people are still missing Jesus, and like, it doesn't feel
Speaker 3: like a Heaven and Earth type response from the federal
Speaker 3: government to do something. At least that's not what the
Speaker 3: sentiment I'm gaining.
Speaker 1: Isn't He's sending them like seven hundred dollars per person. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that doesn't feel like enough, man.
Speaker 4: I think again, it's just but again, I think there's
Speaker 4: just a there's just a reflex of the US government
Speaker 4: to be like, oh not on the mainland, oh like
Speaker 4: basically a colony from a couple of centuries ago, Like
Speaker 4: I don't know, go get there when we get there.
Speaker 1: He's also doing this thing on this trip where he
Speaker 1: keeps talking about how like he can kind of understand
Speaker 1: what the Maui wildfire survivors are going through because he knows, quote,
Speaker 1: what it's like to lose a home to a fire,
Speaker 1: and he didn't. It's like not, first of all, like
Speaker 1: that's inadequate to the situation to be like, I get it, man,
Speaker 1: I've had a thing that I lost to a fire.
Speaker 3: So I'm also the most powerful human on earth. Kind
Speaker 3: of real.
Speaker 1: So as I was watching my home burn, I kind
Speaker 1: of totally knew everything was gonna be all right.
Speaker 3: So no big deal.
Speaker 1: But it's just so dumb. It's so insensitive, Like if
Speaker 1: Trump had said it, I like, I I don't give
Speaker 1: a shit if Trump had said it. You know, they
Speaker 1: are all these people, But like he said, I don't
Speaker 1: want to compare difficulties. But we have a little sense
Speaker 1: Jill and I what it's like to lose a home.
Speaker 1: Years ago, now fifteen years ago, I was in Washington
Speaker 1: doing meet the press. It was a sunny Sunday and
Speaker 1: lightning struck at home on a little lake that's outside
Speaker 1: of our home, not a lake, a big pond and
Speaker 1: hit a wire and came up underneath our home into
Speaker 1: the heating ducks, the air conditioning ducks. Make a long
Speaker 1: story short, I almost lost my wife, my sixty seven Corvette,
Speaker 1: and my cat. But all kidding aside. I watched the
Speaker 1: firefighters the way they responded, what the fuck you're kidding, It's.
Speaker 4: Just he's it's like campaign trail talk rather than like,
Speaker 4: I'm here to like whatever.
Speaker 3: He you know, it is what it is.
Speaker 1: At this point, fire never left the kitchen and took
Speaker 1: twenty minutes to put out. And this is what he's
Speaker 1: going with to console people who just like went through
Speaker 1: one of the worst natural disasters, and.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like I and look, I underlook. There is obviously
Speaker 4: the instinct of a politician to create common ground as
Speaker 4: quickly as possible with the group of people you're speaking with,
Speaker 4: So he's trying to do that by saying, like, I
Speaker 4: know the position you're in. But sometimes you can just
Speaker 4: come through and express your just your grief, your sadness
Speaker 4: for what's happened, and then pivot to and this is
Speaker 4: how I want to make sure I'm helping you and
Speaker 4: this never happens again, and here is what I'm going
Speaker 4: to do. Yes, yeah, And rather than like you know,
Speaker 4: the boilerplate thing of like I'm sending all federal assets
Speaker 4: to sure but I don't know.
Speaker 3: Again, it's like just a bad look.
Speaker 4: I don't I'm the Republicans are like hammering Joe Biden
Speaker 4: right now over this, but not for like the leadership part,
Speaker 4: like he fell asleep a big story about like a fire,
Speaker 4: and they're meanwhile, I'm over here. I feel so fucking
Speaker 4: terrible for these people that have lost everything, the amount
Speaker 4: of people that are displaced, the amount that are still missing,
Speaker 4: and I don't know, it just it just feels like
Speaker 4: inadequate from from my side.
Speaker 3: And again I'm not obviously there to like fully get
Speaker 3: the tone of.
Speaker 4: People, but from the handful of people that whose opinions
Speaker 4: I do respect, that are like on the ground there,
Speaker 4: it doesn't feel it seems like it doesn't feel like
Speaker 4: everything possible can be done. But we've said this in
Speaker 4: the past, when has the federal government really come through them, like, yeah,
Speaker 4: we cleaned all that up and it's all the waste
Speaker 4: is gone and there's no more chemicals and all this
Speaker 4: is fine.
Speaker 3: Everyone has a place to stay. Just not that's just
Speaker 3: not the case.
Speaker 1: Like mainstream Democrats. I feel like when they hear people
Speaker 1: criticize Biden, they're like, what do you want Trump?
Speaker 3: No, and I want better. I want better and just wish.
Speaker 2: That the party did better than this.
Speaker 4: You can, And I think that's the thing that people
Speaker 4: conflate the having a better hope, wanting to have politicians
Speaker 4: of a higher standard with like support for Trump. There
Speaker 4: are people who cynically will do that for their own
Speaker 4: like conservative aims and like kind of be like, yo,
Speaker 4: I'm kind of a liberal and then switch it up
Speaker 4: on people. But consistently we talk about how the Democrats
Speaker 4: don't do enough. Why obviously because they're a pretty much
Speaker 4: corporate owned party at this point that those the real
Speaker 4: interests of workers, of working people, of families and stuff,
Speaker 4: but they don't intersect with them because they're there to
Speaker 4: look after a completely different group of people and just
Speaker 4: sort of make these incremental gestures of progress to us
Speaker 4: and hope that that will keep us at bay from
Speaker 4: screaming for something better than what it is now. But yeah,
Speaker 4: hey man, we got we've got a lot going on.
Speaker 4: There's the world is crumbling, and I'm you know, like
Speaker 4: we like we said, remember like the Republicans are counting
Speaker 4: on a catastrophe.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, to push them into the White House.
Speaker 1: Will like twenty different catastrophes. Do Are they okay with that?
Speaker 3: I don't know. Maybe not. It might. It might not
Speaker 3: be enough.
Speaker 1: It's too diffuse. The catastrophes are too diffuse at this point.
Speaker 3: We need a nine to eleven plus a January.
Speaker 1: Sixth, right, right, right, all right, let's take a quick
Speaker 1: break and we'll come back and talk about the disappearing mugshot.
Speaker 1: And we're back, and turns out Trump might not get
Speaker 1: a mug shot after all.
Speaker 3: The fuck.
Speaker 1: Despite reports that Thursday's arrayment could make history by giving
Speaker 1: us the first Trump mug shot, it may not actually happen.
Speaker 1: One legal expert interviewed in The Mirror at least speculated
Speaker 1: this probably wouldn't happen given the president of previous cases
Speaker 1: and his legal team have been arguing against their client
Speaker 1: being photographed, even despite the fact that his campaign literally
Speaker 1: photoshopped a fake mugshot for fundraising purposes.
Speaker 3: Totally.
Speaker 2: I do love this this little detail.
Speaker 1: Though online gambling sites have been allowing bets concerning the arrangement.
Speaker 1: People can wager whether or not he'll be smiling in
Speaker 1: the mug shot, what color tie he'll be wearing, and
Speaker 1: most importantly, how much he'll weigh when he shows up.
Speaker 1: This one has captured my attention and my imagination.
Speaker 4: The line here is two hundred and seventy three and
Speaker 4: a half pounds. Yeah, I didn't think.
Speaker 3: I didn't know. I'm so bad at assessing like weight
Speaker 3: that I'm like, is that? Is he that big? He's
Speaker 3: not that tall? But I don't know, I knows, that's
Speaker 3: what he says. I mean, he's.
Speaker 4: Obviously like three he says, yeah, yeah, yeah, six three Yeah,
Speaker 4: And I'm sure do we have do we have the
Speaker 4: overunder on that?
Speaker 3: Yeah? It's a good question. Okay, are they going to
Speaker 3: measure him without his shoes on?
Speaker 1: So height six three? His reported weight is two forty three,
Speaker 1: so to seventy three point five seems.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: That seems low to me. You're thinking it's under that
Speaker 1: I'm thinking.
Speaker 4: I just can't be okay, I just can't believe this
Speaker 4: is like where we're at, where we.
Speaker 3: Were like fucking Joe Biden and now we have like,
Speaker 3: all right, is it what color ties our future future?
Speaker 1: Because like I don't know, I don't know what he's
Speaker 1: smiling for sure, the odds are I don't know what
Speaker 1: the odds are if he's taking a smile for Yeah.
Speaker 2: But like they do have to weigh him, don't they.
Speaker 4: I have no idea, man, I've I've not been processed
Speaker 4: and booked like that before. Yeah, I'm imagining, Yeah, that
Speaker 4: they do, because it's like because they want to get
Speaker 4: all your data or some shit. Yeah, hey, Donald, just
Speaker 4: just you know, stay strong throughout all this and don't
Speaker 4: go to Russia like we think you're going to, or
Speaker 4: at least you're.
Speaker 3: Just joking that you would, just a joke that I'd
Speaker 3: go to Russia.
Speaker 1: But he wants it does seem like he wants them
Speaker 1: to put him in jail because then it'll make people
Speaker 1: outraged on his behalf. So he is threatening to run
Speaker 1: from the country, to flee the country as a quote
Speaker 1: unquote joke to see if he can't make them smack
Speaker 1: him and then he'll fall down and call the police.
Speaker 2: That sort of thing.
Speaker 1: All right, there was a ruling that may affect the
Speaker 1: strike and may affect the future of AI art. Yeah,
Speaker 1: a federal judge just upheld a ruling that concludes that
Speaker 1: copyright law has never stretched so far to protect works
Speaker 1: generated by new forms of technology operating absent any guiding
Speaker 1: human hand, stating that human authorship is a bedrock requirement.
Speaker 1: So basically that you can't copyright AI art.
Speaker 3: But I guided it when I told the generative AI
Speaker 3: to show me pimped out pope, that's my IP.
Speaker 1: I just feel like that's that is the thing that
Speaker 1: makes this feel like it doesn't actually matter to me
Speaker 1: is that the people will just argue that like they
Speaker 1: guided it by you, by doing programming or whatever.
Speaker 4: But I guess that's like saying you would have a
Speaker 4: copyright claim because you told a songwriter to like, write
Speaker 4: me a song about how beautiful I am, and then
Speaker 4: you're like, and that's mine, now, my copyright because I
Speaker 4: told someone to make it.
Speaker 3: I don't know. Again, I'm not a lawyer, but I
Speaker 3: just like the fact that that will keep people from
Speaker 3: thinking they can profit off of this lazy ass shit,
Speaker 3: Like I.
Speaker 1: Would have been happier if you didn't specify like no
Speaker 1: guiding human hand and had just focused on something else
Speaker 1: that he pointed out and the decision, which is that
Speaker 1: AI models are often trained on pre existing work. That's
Speaker 1: the thing that really kind of throws a not in
Speaker 1: the idea of AI art being copyrightable is that it's
Speaker 1: just a remix of pre existing art. So why yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: did you get all those copyright.
Speaker 3: From every single movie you've seen in your life? How
Speaker 3: did you get those ideas?
Speaker 4: But yeah, this is good to know because everybody was
Speaker 4: licking their lips as to like how AI can.
Speaker 3: Be like so profitable, and yeah, the studios would hate that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they would hate it if they may like made
Speaker 1: an AI movie and then weren't able.
Speaker 3: To we could just rip it off, yeah, like no,
Speaker 3: what the fuck? Like sorry?
Speaker 1: Where As that Russo brother said, like you could just
Speaker 1: like remake that movie but with you as the star,
Speaker 1: which is.
Speaker 2: What everybody wants.
Speaker 3: The fuck I do?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you do? You think about it, dude?
Speaker 3: You do?
Speaker 4: The most I can do is photoshop our faces onto
Speaker 4: movie characters and then get weirded out by that and then.
Speaker 3: Be like, oh my god, it's come too far. It's
Speaker 3: come too far. But also, I look sick as the terminator.
Speaker 2: You do, Actually, yeah, you look great.
Speaker 3: You look great as Eddie Furlong too. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So some of the elderly pictures of me really are troubling.
Speaker 1: Let me know exactly what I'm going to look like
Speaker 1: on my deathbed.
Speaker 2: Scooter Braun is trending.
Speaker 1: He So, we don't have anything really official yet, right, No,
Speaker 1: this is he's famous for being Justin Bieber's manager who
Speaker 1: like bought Taylor Swift's songbook, prompting Taylor Swift to redo
Speaker 1: like all of her albums, and being Taylor the versions
Speaker 1: that he bought worthless.
Speaker 2: He's not.
Speaker 1: He's not a very well liked person in like writ
Speaker 1: large in the public.
Speaker 2: And he So what we know so far.
Speaker 1: Is that I'm pretty sure it's confirmed that Demi Lovado
Speaker 1: and Ariana Grande are leaving his management stable. Yeah, there
Speaker 1: are also rumors, and this would mark this is a
Speaker 1: big deal that.
Speaker 2: Justin Bieber is also leaving.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Adina Menzel I think also parted ways.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so there's a there's an article on Variety with
Speaker 1: the headline what the hell is going on in Scooter
Speaker 1: Bronze Empire, and it's yeah, it seems bad. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: there's also like not the usual like kind of speculation
Speaker 1: of like what what all this means or what's happening?
Speaker 3: So I don't know.
Speaker 4: I noticed an exchange on Twitter between our favorite people,
Speaker 4: Bridget Todd and Sophie Lichterman where Bridget was talking about
Speaker 4: She's like, I don't know what's going on, but like
Speaker 4: what it's like. First Bridget was saying, like does that
Speaker 4: have to do with like crypto or NFTs? And then
Speaker 4: Sophie pointed out, like all of his Instagram picks are
Speaker 4: like he's like, they're all vacation picks where he's like
Speaker 4: very nonchalant, and Bridge just said that's the biggest sign
Speaker 4: of someone who did something, just posting all nonchalant, like
Speaker 4: you don't know what everyone's talking about.
Speaker 3: So I don't know.
Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, there there's apparently the rumor is that
Speaker 4: some kind of report or story.
Speaker 3: Is going to become public about him, and that is
Speaker 3: why people are starting to head for the exits. Early
Speaker 3: who'd have thought.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll see, we will see. Yeah, it seems like
Speaker 1: a lot of like the thing in the Variety article
Speaker 1: is like speculation around financial misdeeds, white collar type stuff,
Speaker 1: which there is a Taylor Swift lyric vigilante.
Speaker 2: Yeah, son, it's.
Speaker 1: I don't know that it's about Scubar Brown, but I mean, look,
Speaker 1: we don't.
Speaker 4: We don't all the time in straight up conspiracies. But
Speaker 4: verse three, while he was doing lines and crossing all
Speaker 4: of mine, someone told his white collar crimes to the FBI.
Speaker 3: Okay, and I don't dress for villains or for innocence.
Speaker 3: I'm on my vigilante shit again. So yeah, we'll see.
Speaker 2: We'll see, we'll see who that is about.
Speaker 1: Maybe about our dad, who's the billionaire hedge fun person
Speaker 1: or maybe multimillionaire. Anyways, those are some of the things
Speaker 1: that are trending on this Tuesday afternoon. We are back
Speaker 1: tomorrow with the whole last episode of the show. Until then,
Speaker 1: be kind to each other, be kind to yourselves, get
Speaker 1: the vaccines, don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we
Speaker 1: will talk to y'all tomorrow.
Speaker 3: Bye bye,
