00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:23,119
Speaker 1: So yeah, for sure. Man. Somebody the other day wrote

00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,119
Speaker 1: on Twitter they did the snoring sound effect as hawk

23
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: Shoe and I love it. I think about it all yeah,

24

Speaker 1: funk shoe. Me me me, me me MEI. Um. Well,

25
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: Soren is dressed as Soaring for Halloween, which is actually

26
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: very appropriate. Acclaimed television writer Sorn. Yes, I have a

27
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: green Goblin costume. Put the mask on, Jack, all right,

28
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: so hold on one second night? Oh my god, Jack,

29
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: what the fund is that? So this is the green

30
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: Goblin mask that came with my like green goblin body sock,

31
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: and I'll wear it in the episode photo the selfie.

32
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,559
Speaker 1: If people want to go look on Instagram or Twitter

33
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: to see what it, you can probably hear my lips

34
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 1: being pressed down. So it's I assumed that there was

35
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: some mechanism involved with this. It's just like one of

36
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: those like heads of a body sock, you know, if

37
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: you've ever seen one of the people in like the

38
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: monochrome body sock thing where they're just like all yeah, yeah, um.

39
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 1: I assumed that there was something like they had a

40
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: thinner material where the eyes go that helped you see

41
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: through it that that appears not to be the case.

42
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: I can't see anything. It's clear to me that it's

43
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: completely uniform in there because it's on crooked right now,

44
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: and you have no idea. Yeah you have it. You

45
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: have it so rotated, you like a cyclops, have no

46
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: way of knowing that it's okay, it's okay, you look fine,

47
00:02:55,040 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: you look fine. Anyways, I'm taking it off. It's uh,

48
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 1: it's spooky season. We're about to go trigger treating. I'm

49
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: gonna go to my kids school do a little Halloween celebration.

50
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: We're gonna go tricker treating. So my wife is Spider Man,

51
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: I am Green Goblin, my other son is Batman, and

52
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: then my other son, after my wife had ordered her

53
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 1: Spiderman costume, was like, I'm Spider Man too. Uh So,

54
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: so we have two Spider Man uh. And that's just

55
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,399
Speaker 1: how it's gonna be. But it's it is the year

56
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: that the Spider Man with the multi Spider Man came out.

57
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: So I think we can or they can point at

58
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: each other and it can be a meme costume. Um.

59
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: But what are we seeing out there in the holloway

60
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: in the world, Oh, Halloween costumes. I don't know. I've

61
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: seen it there's a lot of like meme ones that

62
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: that work to varying effects. I think my favorite meme

63
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: one is Nicole Kidman from the m c Intro like

64
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: that that would get if I saw that in the wild,

65
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: I would be going wild for it. The thing I

66
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: like is that when Kim Kardashian went to Tracy Ellis's

67
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: Ross birthday party over the weekend, she went as Mystique

68
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: from the X Men and Tracey Ellis Ross like, this

69
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: is just my fiftieth birthday girl. This is painstakingly painted.

70
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: But had to tell Blude up from the shoes up,

71
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: it's just hey, you know what happens. P Diddy as

72
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: the Joker was also really weird too. Yeah. The other thing,

73
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: the one thing I do want to point out is

74
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: in Japan we have this thing called Jimmy like Halloween.

75
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: Jimmy means like super normal, super dull, super like just boring,

76
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 1: not exciting, And there's a tradition of just going as

77
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: like really specific Jimmy like moments like normal ship from

78
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: our lives, and I just want to go through a

79
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: couple of them. Um. This one is a woman holding

80
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: like a t M thing and her costume is shop

81
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: attendant trying really hard to look away as you enter

82
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: your pin numbers, just holding it. Another one is left

83
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: the artment right at the same time as the next

84
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 1: door neighbor and ran back inside to wait until they leave.

85
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: It's just a guy waiting by a door, listening. Um.

86
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: This is another one. Where is it? Where is it? Oh?

87
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: This is like super Japanese. It says next in line

88
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: to offer incense at the funeral, but unsure of the custom,

89
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 1: so trying to peek at the person in front. So

90
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 1: like when you go to offer a thing, like there's

91
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 1: a way where you're like do these like little pinches

92
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: and hold them in front of your head and like

93
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: throw this like it's the whole process. And if you're

94
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 1: rusty on your ship, you will be looking ahead tore

95
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 1: like how many are they doing? How many? Okay'll be

96
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: all ready. I'll be ready for that. Uh. And another

97
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: one that's is didn't really want anything from Ikea, but

98
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: my friend insisted on driving us there. And it's a

99
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: person with an Ikea bag but just got like one

100
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: little thing, just like a little stuffed animal. Yeah. So

101
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 1: I I love just these hyper specific uh you know, yeah,

102
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: those are all right. Well, let us know what you're

103
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: costumes were. What the best thing you saw was. We're

104
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 1: about to get a thousand trick or triers in my house,

105
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: so i'll I'll come with my zeitgeist for report. So

106
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: we're in every every year we get a thousand trick

107
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 1: or treers, and I make all my decisions about what

108
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 1: pop what's trending in popular culture based on what everyone

109
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,160
Speaker 1: shows up as you like, Guys, the Republicans are gonna

110
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 1: take the house in the Senate based on that's a

111
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 1: good way to keep your finger on the pole. That's right.

112
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 1: The kids are the ones who were in touch. Hey,

113
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: I knew the Joker was going to be a big

114
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: hit before. Well, I guess everyone knew the big hit. Yeah,

115
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: do you believe it? No? Yeah? Yeah. I think the

116
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,279
Speaker 1: sequel might be a hit too. I don't know. I'm

117
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: going out on a limb, all right. In the in

118
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: the world of news, Lula one in Brazil, the world

119
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: exhaled very big for climate human rights. Uh. He defeated Bolsonaro,

120
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: who was like openly a fascist. It was like a

121
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: leftist populist leader verse is the rightest populist fascist leader. Um.

122
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: And it was super fucking narrow. Um. Probably not helped

123
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: by the fact that Bolsonaro had a lot of pro

124
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: Bolsonaro police forces out like trying to prevent people from

125
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: getting to the polls in major cities where he was unpopular. Yeah,

126
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: I mean they pulled it up. The one thing that's

127
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 1: interesting is like all the reports that Bolsonaro just shut

128
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: himself away, like in a room after it didn't take

129
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: any calls and like just turned off the lights, and

130
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: people like what the fund is going on in there?

131
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: Which doesn't make me confident. What the fuck is he

132
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: doing right now not talking to anybody because he hasn't conceded. Yeah,

133
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: everyone is just sitting back being like he's going to

134
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: pull a Trump, Right, He's definitely gonna pull a Trump.

135
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: That kind of feels like like that is what they're

136
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: calling it, the Trump playbook. But um, his supporters are

137
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: crying though in the streets. Yeah, so you know, you

138
00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: hate to see that. I hate to see that. I

139
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: hate to see people on board with fascism crying. Huh. Yeah,

140
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: all right. Julia Roberts MLK, did you see the clip? No?

141
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: I didn't. Okay, So Julia Roberts, like in September, did

142
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: a talk with Gayle King, and Gayle King clearly did

143
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: her homework because like, I don't like and you could

144
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: you actually have a connection to, you know, Dr Martin

145
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 1: Luther King and the King family. And she was like

146
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 1: oh yeah, um, yeah, that's true. And she's like right that,

147
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 1: like the he they paid for your hospital bill when

148
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 1: you were born. So she's like, well, so what happened?

149
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 1: So apparently, um, her family was like unable to pay

150
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 1: the hospital bill when she was born, and Coretta Scott

151
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 1: King and Dr Martin Luther King Jr. Paid for the

152
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: bill and they're like so Gayl King's like, uh so

153
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: what was he just going by and like throwing cash

154
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: out at the hospital or something. And it turns out

155
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,119
Speaker 1: that her mother, her family ran a drama school in Atlanta,

156
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: and Coretta Scott King was trying to find a place

157
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: for the kids to get in the drama because they

158
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: really wanted to, but because of racism, nobody was taking

159
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: black children, but her mother did and then they had

160
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: a connection with the King family. So when it came

161
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: to this moment, they were like, oh yeah, we got you,

162
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: We got you. That's how Julia Roberts I know exactly

163
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: because At first it felt like this sounds like the

164
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 1: most fucked up backwards privileged ever, like and Dr Moley

165
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 1: King paid my bills, cool guy. Where it was like

166
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 1: she really wanted to get her kids in and the

167
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 1: only way to do that was to help pay for

168
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 1: this baby. No, so a kindness was done prior to

169
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: that from from her family. So I like the first

170
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: time I heard it, till like this is this going

171
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: to either be some weird shit like or gonna make sense?

172
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: And luckily yes, as the story evolves, you're like, oh,

173
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 1: I see, I see what happened. That's wow that that's

174
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 1: not a thing that she has publicized before. Yeah. I

175
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: mean part of me was like, what is she doing

176
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,839
Speaker 1: like with her activism, like what is is she paying

177
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: it forward? Maybe not? I don't know. A little murky

178
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: there Wikipedia page under philanthropy. There was this other debate

179
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 1: where they're like, well, you know, she could be doing

180
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 1: it giving anonymous donations because you know so and so

181
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 1: gives anonymously too. I'm like, yeah, they'd give anonymously quote unquote,

182
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,559
Speaker 1: but still tell people they do that, so their name

183
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: might not be there, but it's known that they do that,

184
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 1: So she could be she could not be all that

185
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: to say. I got no problems with Julia Roberts, but

186
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,479
Speaker 1: glad to see that, uh you know, her family was

187
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:35,199
Speaker 1: doing something right. Mhm alright, let's take a quick break.

188
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: We'll come back. There is a new voodoo flavor of

189
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 1: mountain dew. I have it here. I'm going to taste

190
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: test it, and I guess, give you my guess. I

191
00:10:47,080 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: don't know. We'll be right back and we're back, and

192
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: so our money. You say what you just said, people,

193
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: it was embarrassing for you to go by that mountain

194
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: for me to go buy mountain dew voodoo a national phenomenon, indubitably,

195
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 1: sir um no. I mean it's something that I'm not

196
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: embarrassed by. I don't think my wife feels super great

197
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: when I'm drinking. Do at like a party where other

198
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 1: people are having like white wine. But it's who I am,

199
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: like a secret of the US green that. Yeah, it's

200
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 1: the only thing it can be is mountain dew. Yeah, exactly.

201
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 1: I like that. The idea of people like, oh, we're drinking,

202
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: what is he? What is that old man drinking over there? Hey,

203
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: you knew I grew up in Kentucky. When you married me.

204
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: You know, like, hey, I'm drinking it out of a

205
00:11:51,080 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: wineglass to fit O god class my nose. You're smelling

206
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 1: like it's just fizzy as you spin the glass. Shock. Okay,

207
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: So he's opening the new Mountain dew voo do d

208
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 1: d W and I do want to say interest prompt

209
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,719
Speaker 1: On the website, it says back by popular demand, It's back,

210
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 1: blah blah blah. It says the limited time unidentified new

211
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 1: flavor will leave you screaming for an answer to what

212
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 1: the flavor could be. And so they say, what's your guests?

213
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 1: Are you screaming for an answer? I'm not screaming necessarily,

214
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: maybe my heart and solar screaming for an answer. It's

215
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: definitely challenging. So last year was Fruit Candy Choose, which

216
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: is pretty vague. I think it. I think it's Starburst basically,

217
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 1: but they didn't want to officially like licensed Starburst or something.

218
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: This here feels like it has notes of like ginger beer,

219
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: but also like kind of a fruity or finish. So

220
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of like what that could be.

221
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: That's like, is there a burn to it? Is there

222
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: that ginger burn? No, it's like that's it. It sends

223
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 1: you down that direction that this might have a ginger

224
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: beer burned, but then it has more of a fruity finish,

225
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: which is interesting, more so more ginger ale than ginger beer.

226
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: Then what if it was just ginger ale? Like these

227
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: fucking idiots are so hopped up there so do brained.

228
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: If we just changed the color and put a weird

229
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 1: label on it, they're gonna be like, um, ginger snaps. Yeah,

230
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 1: we can convince people to drink ginger ale anywhere other

231
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 1: than on a plane or when they're sick. It's a

232
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 1: hole on that market. The fact that fruit candy was

233
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,719
Speaker 1: last year's is sending me down it. It could be

234
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: a fruit candy flavor. But I guess all Mountain dews

235
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: could be fruit candy, right, Like they all kind of

236
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: taste like candy, that's for sure. There's all some citrusy adjacent's.

237
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: It's like a it's not like a breakfast cereal. Like

238
00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: that's an interesting idea, Like maybe maybe it's yeah, like

239
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 1: feeling pebbles or something. On Twitter, people's guesses are Swedish fish.

240
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 1: Swedish fish, that is that's pretty good. Yeah, yeah, it

241
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 1: does taste a little Swedish fishy. Another one said black

242
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: cherry vanilla. Another person said it feels like it descends

243
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: from the red, white and blue bomb popsicle. Okay, yeah,

244
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: I could see that, like those are all yeah, and

245
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: I think Swedish. I was when I couldn't tell if

246
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: fruit candy Choose was sending me the direction of like

247
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: chewy fruit candy, but I kept thinking of Twizzlers. But

248
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: I was like, it's not Twizzlers because Twizzlers are like

249
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: more of a dull sweetness and this is like a

250
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 1: little bit sharper and more kind of puckery sweetness. Well,

251
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: shout out Klea Bailey on Twitter because she's like, I

252
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 1: know a Swedish fish flavored soda when I taste one. Yeah,

253
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: and definitely a better execution of a Swedish fish highlighted

254
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: like crossover if it is that because the Swedish fish

255
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 1: oreos were one of the first things we ever reviewed

256
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 1: on this podcast, and that was that was a problem.

257
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: This is just like we're seeing as I look at

258
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 1: these tweets like the Last Days of Innocent Twitter, like

259
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: this black woman was one saying like I know Swedish

260
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: fish flavor, so do my taste one this random white

261
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 1: dude in the replies who was like his avatars like

262
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: taking a photo, like really, like, and I'm a photographer.

263
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: This guy's like that's what I thought too, had one yesterday.

264
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: They don't follow each other, they were just cruising from

265
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: their wedding pictures. Yeah, if you've got the early taste,

266
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: because it may bee sour Patch kids because those have

267
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: like a very Swedish fish. It's yeah, it's it's more

268
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 1: Swedish fish than sour Patch kids. I would say, okay, yeah,

269
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 1: but could you really, like, as a self respecting company, PepsiCo,

270
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 1: could you do fruit candy shoes and then sour Patch

271
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 1: kids the next year? No? But I am curious how

272
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: they're going to like label it. If it is Swedish fish,

273
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: what are they gonna call it? Because they can't like

274
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: if they don't Scandinavian swimmers. We didn't, we didn't red

275
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 1: fruit chooes at this time. Yeah, it probably not going

276
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 1: to be that. I wonder. I wonder if it is

277
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: like a ginger beer type thing, but but they wouldn't

278
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 1: call it ginger beer because that's kind of niche, So

279
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: they would probably have to call it ginger ale which

280
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: would be so weird this one. We did a sprite

281
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 1: this year. Anyways, I just drank half a bottle of

282
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: mountain dew and we'll be crashing, like right when my

283
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: kids are hitting their sugar. We gotta get through the

284
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 1: stories before you crash. Dude. It's it's really a clock,

285
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 1: my miles nose. That's a very short countdown to. But yeah,

286
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: I don't have another bunk Halloween where you have another

287
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 1: Dow crash. Alright, affirmative action trending because enough right wing

288
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 1: donors have invested in making this a case that the

289
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 1: Supreme Court thinks they need to reverse racism. I tells

290
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: you it looks like they're set to cut this you know,

291
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: massively successful so social policy, and like you said, enough

292
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 1: backing from donors that it made its way to the

293
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 1: Supreme Court. The argument that's being made, there's a couple,

294
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 1: but one of them is that it's negatively impacting A

295
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 1: A PI students, which there is an argument for that, absolutely.

296
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: But the lack of space to enroll those students isn't

297
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: because of like black kids or brown kids an affirmative action.

298
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 1: It's the wacky admissions policies of places like fucking Harvard

299
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 1: that keep thousands of spots open for a l d

300
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 1: c s. A l d c s are athletes, legacies,

301
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: people on the Dean's list, and then children of faculty.

302
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,680
Speaker 1: They make about five percent of applicants, but thirty percent

303
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,199
Speaker 1: of the admitted class miles. How do they get on

304
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 1: the Dean's list. It must be through academic achievement. Let

305
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:48,960
