Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to twenty twenty four. Oh no, yo,
Speaker 1: they didn't even change it in the Docks Game Day,
Speaker 1: I mean me did not change it to the doc
Speaker 1: it says Wednesday, January third, twenty twenty three.
Speaker 2: Slash cut that twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: Maybe we're still in twenty twenty three. It's December fourteenth,
Speaker 1: just so you know, because if some of these predictions
Speaker 1: come true, you know we're gonna want to timestamp this
Speaker 1: shit because we got some heaters coming. My fashion prediction
Speaker 1: is a real wild wild. My name is Jack O'Brien.
Speaker 1: I'm throwed to be joined as always by my co host,
Speaker 1: mister Miles Grad. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Hello, Hello.
Speaker 3: I'm really excited to look at this upcoming year with
Speaker 3: everybody or dreading it. I'm not quite sure where I like.
Speaker 3: You know, the inner therapist in me is saying, like,
Speaker 3: you know what, just try and find the optimism, Like
Speaker 3: the bad will always be there, so look for the good.
Speaker 1: And then I'm optimistic on an interpersonal level. On a
Speaker 1: broad level, via pessimist.
Speaker 3: This person who does a daily podcast reading the news
Speaker 3: all the time goes.
Speaker 1: So we'll see which one wins out. My prediction is
Speaker 1: acid reflux. Well, we are thrilled to be joined in
Speaker 1: our third seat by the brilliant and talented super producer.
Speaker 4: Back.
Speaker 3: What's your how are you? How would you wrap up
Speaker 3: twenty twenty three? How would you sum up? You had
Speaker 3: a good twenty twenty three? I mean, look for you personally,
Speaker 3: we all know what the fuck is out there, you know.
Speaker 5: Even on a personal level, I feel like it was
Speaker 5: a long year.
Speaker 1: Oh it was.
Speaker 5: It was a year of.
Speaker 4: Being in support my partner, and I feel like I'm
Speaker 4: really hoping for him to have a better year because
Speaker 4: really rough year. So it was a year about being
Speaker 4: a learning how to be a really good partner and
Speaker 4: how to be a dog mom.
Speaker 5: So you're a challenging year of lots of lessons, but.
Speaker 1: You're to love but you're nurturer.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know you that.
Speaker 3: I mean we've only hung out in person a handful
Speaker 3: of times, but spent numerous hours on the internet, numerous
Speaker 3: zoom calls, and I could feel I feel like you
Speaker 3: probably entered those roles pretty naturally.
Speaker 2: So I mean, I see how you love your dog.
Speaker 4: The first time that I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 4: I'm a real adult dealing with like real adult ship
Speaker 4: like I have you know, a dog child, the dog
Speaker 4: child that has you know, vaccines and appointments and ear infections,
Speaker 4: and you're raising them to not.
Speaker 3: Be evil and also like your partner has like life
Speaker 3: events that are like bigger than merely like.
Speaker 1: Man, the fucking Yankees lost exactly like my friend. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I hear that. I hear that. All right, Well, let's
Speaker 1: get into some of the velvet jacket. Yeah, man, it's
Speaker 1: my holiday jacket.
Speaker 5: Oh I think I was like, I'm in a Sada jacket.
Speaker 5: I'm in an old Wow.
Speaker 1: Okay, throw it up.
Speaker 5: Jack looks nice. I look like I'm still in college.
Speaker 1: We're recording this on the day of the LA Podcast
Speaker 1: Studio holiday party. Yeah, at the at the studio. So
Speaker 1: I have my little Uh it's boiled wool, as the
Speaker 1: guy at the store told us when we were like, oh,
Speaker 1: is that velvet? And he probably told my wife it's
Speaker 1: boiled wool.
Speaker 2: The boiled wool. Is it like velvet or nom?
Speaker 1: I just now it's just like kind of soft and uh,
Speaker 1: it's doing a lot, my man, the red wintry boiled wool.
Speaker 1: The guy looked like a creature from the bottom of
Speaker 1: the ocean. It's just a yeah, exactly coming off is
Speaker 1: getting off anglerfish vibes, but and just waiting for us
Speaker 1: to ask if the jacket was right. His like little
Speaker 1: light bulb was hanging over this dangling over our head.
Speaker 1: Is this a velvet? It's boiled? They're gonna like the
Speaker 1: way you look. I guarantee it, all right. So predictions
Speaker 1: we like to, you know, we don't go back often enough.
Speaker 1: And because the Internet is broken now, just like websites
Speaker 1: no longer work because of AI and because of budget
Speaker 1: cuts across the board, it was it was hard to
Speaker 1: find like what people's actual predictions were for twenty twenty three,
Speaker 1: but we did find some from one Nostra dumb ass.
Speaker 1: Uh Nostra Damas came with. I didn't realize he was
Speaker 1: just like, all right, so next year twenty twenty three,
Speaker 1: like just going through. But apparently he uh, he had
Speaker 1: some very specific predictions for twenty twenty three. He thought
Speaker 1: that there would be a great war, which pretty vague
Speaker 1: and sadly can literally apply it any year, but also
Speaker 1: mentioned a celestial fire on the Royal Edifice, which people
Speaker 1: interpreted as either a fire or a meteor impacting Buckingham Palace,
Speaker 1: which couldn't happen. He really shot his shot on that one.
Speaker 1: He's like, and a meteor is going to hit this
Speaker 1: one building or my name's not Nostrodoms. They were like, well, okay, sure.
Speaker 1: Also something about the light of Mars will go out
Speaker 1: Mars seems fine, so way off the asshole.
Speaker 3: Clear misunderstanding of what any of that means, Like the
Speaker 3: light will go out on it.
Speaker 1: It's like reflect and we'll have to replace the light
Speaker 1: bulb with astronauts like that. He was predicting at a
Speaker 1: time when that was probably there will need.
Speaker 5: More lamb the year the Mars rover died though, is
Speaker 5: it so?
Speaker 1: Some people thought that that would mean that unattempted Mars
Speaker 1: mission would be disastrous, but this was not the year
Speaker 1: of any disastrous Mars missions, apart from SpaceX's scheduled calamities,
Speaker 1: right yeah, which they're doing on purpose. I wanted that
Speaker 1: to happen.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I feel like I remember who was it?
Speaker 3: Our favorite from Texas who got the Mustang?
Speaker 2: They had the goat person ever manner ever, okay, I
Speaker 2: remember whatever.
Speaker 1: Ever.
Speaker 2: One of the first times Ever came on.
Speaker 3: They were like, yo, you fuck with Baba Vanga and
Speaker 3: we're like oh yeah, and they're like, you got Bulgarian
Speaker 3: mystic and ship like that. I think Baba Vanga has
Speaker 3: may have accurately predicted one thing this year.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm trying to think. So we've
Speaker 1: got some we've got some Baba Vanga content. And here
Speaker 1: from JM.
Speaker 2: So okay, okay, okay, Because some of.
Speaker 1: The published psychic predictions from Baba Vanga, who is the
Speaker 1: late psychic who supposedly predicted nine to eleven, said that
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four would see a nuclear planet explosion and
Speaker 1: also a visit from Aliens and the whole world would
Speaker 1: be covered in darkness. It's also possible that she had
Speaker 1: just heard about the plot of Highlander too, as we'll
Speaker 1: get to. Okay, that's fine. First, sorry that I think
Speaker 1: that was for twenty twenty three nuclear plant explosion. One
Speaker 1: of the calamities that has yet to happen is a
Speaker 1: nuclear plant explosion. Visit from Aliens has been ongoing for
Speaker 1: a while, so that's not I'm not impressed yet. Don't
Speaker 1: impress a meme Uasha Vanga. And yeah, the whole world
Speaker 1: has not been covered in darkness.
Speaker 2: I think she was right about it.
Speaker 3: She predicted a solar storm or something this year, and
Speaker 3: that happened like earlier in December. Okay, yeah, so I'll
Speaker 3: give her that. I mean, I don't know how. This
Speaker 3: is also something producer Brian is also talking about. He's like,
Speaker 3: that's why he's got a lot.
Speaker 1: Of redundant power systems for all his computers and stuff
Speaker 1: like that.
Speaker 3: But yeah, you know, Baba Vanga, I think one out
Speaker 3: of eight things hit maybe right.
Speaker 1: A living psychic claimed that a space portal will open
Speaker 1: up under Area fifty one and Elon Musk somehow knows
Speaker 1: all about it, and also predicted the return of the
Speaker 1: Antichrist in twenty twenty three. But I feel like that
Speaker 1: one's so vague. We're not like there's so many people
Speaker 1: like Obama with the Antichrist. I've heard arist every year.
Speaker 1: I know who's this year?
Speaker 2: Should we give this year's Antichrist to something?
Speaker 1: Anti Christ? Is Elian? Honestly, the Antichrist would probably be
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, right, Like if we're going off of like
Speaker 1: you're just like someone who leads everybody in a direction,
Speaker 1: like the power the magnetism is, like.
Speaker 4: I would say because of Elon's acquiring of Twitter ax.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the broad Tech Army. He's got two. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he's got an army too. But I think you know,
Speaker 3: to your point in Jack, there was that priest who
Speaker 3: was like, you know, Taylor's doing like demonic rituals and like,
Speaker 3: I'm not trying to say like she knows what her
Speaker 3: she's intentionally doing that. But the demons care not about
Speaker 3: inten They only care that they are being summoned.
Speaker 1: That's right. So yeah, maybe Taylor Swift maybe probably not
Speaker 1: our person of the year. We've said we thought our
Speaker 1: person of the Year for last year should have been
Speaker 1: labor Or with AI as the runner up, because of
Speaker 1: just how much fucking hype that got, and that does
Speaker 1: seem like it would have been the thing that people
Speaker 1: globally will look back on and be like, this is
Speaker 1: the year that everybody just couldn't shut the fuck up
Speaker 1: about AI and then they started using it and it
Speaker 1: was bad for the world. But our Antichrist of the year,
Speaker 1: I mean, and this is not I hope Taylor fans,
Speaker 1: because like we've brought up Taylor. When we said that
Speaker 1: Taylor maybe shouldn't have been the person of the year,
Speaker 1: people were like actually the like here's some really good
Speaker 1: ship that she did, and like she like pays for
Speaker 1: all the stuff and like tips well, and it's just
Speaker 1: like an amazing.
Speaker 2: Then I should be motherfucking time people.
Speaker 5: It's like the least you can do as a billionaire,
Speaker 5: Like what.
Speaker 1: Do you Yeah.
Speaker 5: Did you pay your employees and you tip?
Speaker 3: I get when you're a fan, you can't stand to
Speaker 3: hear something like they did and deserve x or y.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 3: I just don't think even after for Taylor Swift being
Speaker 3: person People of the Year, Person of the Year, that's
Speaker 3: not that's not something she like, she don't need that.
Speaker 1: She's already with her music. So I'm like a little
Speaker 1: unnerved by how much it seemed like she actually wanted
Speaker 1: it to be, like yeah, I am on the level
Speaker 1: of FDR and Stalin, Like yo, I mean she's yeah
Speaker 1: yeah that that interview was wild anyways. Also, dmitriy Medvedev
Speaker 1: like made a list of predictions for some reason, which
Speaker 1: included a second American Civil War in twenty twenty three,
Speaker 1: Elon Musk presidency in twenty twenty three, and the rise
Speaker 1: of the Fourth Reich following the collapse of the EU.
Speaker 1: So my man went on the record and uh off
Speaker 1: swamp rock defenses on that one. Yeah, and then just
Speaker 1: box office predictions are always interesting because people like that.
Speaker 1: So scream Rant did a big list of like, these
Speaker 1: are gonna be the top ten movies. Mario they put
Speaker 1: in number one. It was number two, so like pretty close,
Speaker 1: but they didn't even have like Barbie in the top
Speaker 1: ten or Oppenheimer.
Speaker 5: Believe in women, yeah.
Speaker 2: Exactly, But what about Christopher Nolan He doesn't either.
Speaker 6: Yeah, believed in them as long as they're like kind
Speaker 6: of don't follow any logical path other than to sell
Speaker 6: chaos on the leg they're great, man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're chaotics and not human.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, that's right. Fast ex Indiana Jones, the Marvels and
Speaker 1: Mission Impossible. They were like, these are your top films
Speaker 1: of the year, and not so much. They didn't do
Speaker 1: that well. So I think it was Barbie, then Super
Speaker 1: Mario Brothers then Oppenheimer were the top three. Okay, all
Speaker 1: original films. I mean Super Mario Brothers the most original
Speaker 1: of all. Absolutely.
Speaker 3: I never I thought it was so fantastic the world
Speaker 3: they built in that one, and just like the characters
Speaker 3: and everything. A lot of time went into that for
Speaker 3: just one film.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I don't know. I'm hoping that process like
Speaker 1: continues and that original films like continue to overperform of
Speaker 1: the box office instead of sequels. But man, we have
Speaker 1: a lot of fucking sequels coming, as we'll get to.
Speaker 1: And then some people from the year nineteen twenty three
Speaker 1: made some predictions about what life was going to be
Speaker 1: like in twenty twenty three. Oh okay, and so the
Speaker 1: big one that I think, I mean, this is interesting
Speaker 1: and maybe it'll happen next year. But they were predicting
Speaker 1: the eradication of beauty contests because everyone will be so
Speaker 1: beautiful that I love, they so much of their time
Speaker 1: and like attention back then was spent on like well,
Speaker 1: so our first question, what are the beauty contests going
Speaker 1: to be? Like?
Speaker 3: There will be none because everyone will be so beautiful.
Speaker 1: It's like people will no longer spend their Friday evenings
Speaker 1: going down to the dock and waving at boats that
Speaker 1: are leaving port because their arms will be flippers. Like
Speaker 1: they got like a thing that was like no longer happening.
Speaker 1: But they just like missed why you know, wait they
Speaker 1: really said that, No, no, just saying it feels yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because of race mixing.
Speaker 2: You're like, oh shit, because of race mixing, they won't
Speaker 2: even have hands.
Speaker 1: That's easy. That seemed to be what they did back then. Though.
Speaker 1: You could either go to the beauty contest just judge
Speaker 1: a woman's beauty. You could go down to the dock
Speaker 1: and wave it a boat that was either coming in
Speaker 1: or leaving, or you could hit one of those metal
Speaker 1: hoops with a stick. Right, those were right, Those were
Speaker 1: your petty Farthings, Yeah, Penny Farthing races.
Speaker 3: So it's like, we won't do ticker tape parades anymore
Speaker 3: because ticker tape will shoot out of your own home
Speaker 3: with your.
Speaker 1: Own ticker tape shooter. You can have a made with
Speaker 1: your own home ticker tape maker from Magna Box. All right, uh,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. We'll come back. We'll do
Speaker 1: our predictions and look at what movies thought was gonna
Speaker 1: happen in twenty twenty three. We'll be right back and
Speaker 1: we're back. You just get into our our prediction.
Speaker 3: Sure, wow, yeah, I didn't know this was I know
Speaker 3: this was a radio bilingue.
Speaker 1: Okay, that can't be real, is it? Prediction?
Speaker 5: Is that I think it is.
Speaker 1: Hey, yeah, look at me, Look at me. It is
Speaker 1: sorry to double sweet miles. You want to kick us off.
Speaker 2: First one for twenty twenty four. Okay, so a lot.
Speaker 1: I'm just thinking.
Speaker 3: I'm just thinking, God, can you blame me thinking so
Speaker 3: much about the presidential election?
Speaker 1: Uh, I'm right.
Speaker 5: Out, Yeah, there's no way there's a president.
Speaker 3: I mean, like, aside from my own misgivings about what
Speaker 3: is happening, I'm trying to look at the whole picture
Speaker 3: right now, and I'm thinking right because just you know,
Speaker 3: it's funny and we may or may not talk. You
Speaker 3: may or may not have heard this on the daily
Speaker 3: that case, but recently the Biden administration was like, oh,
Speaker 3: like switch the like the debate on the economy and
Speaker 3: like start delivering like real stuff at the kitchen table
Speaker 3: for Americans.
Speaker 2: Maybe that's what will help.
Speaker 3: So they're figuring this out pretty fucking late in the game,
Speaker 3: and that's very, very upsetting. But I have a feeling
Speaker 3: to counteract that Biden and the Democrats are gonna have
Speaker 3: to go even further all in on the Trump fear mongering,
Speaker 3: which I'm not saying isn't like, isn't deserved because this
Speaker 3: guy is saying out loud.
Speaker 2: He's like, I'll be a fascist day one dictator.
Speaker 3: And then except for day one, day one, I mean dictating,
Speaker 3: but it's only day one, starting day one, and then
Speaker 3: what does it end. I'm just saying it's starting day
Speaker 3: one is when that will happen. So that is absolutely frightening.
Speaker 3: But I feel also that that emphasis is going to
Speaker 3: also miss the fact that they are probably going to
Speaker 3: do too little to make material improvements to voters lives
Speaker 3: in the limited time that is there, and then at
Speaker 3: the last minute he will promote some kind of gigantic
Speaker 3: fdrsque vision, but it may be too late. I don't
Speaker 3: think he's going to come out with it now. I
Speaker 3: do think though, that they are going to The things
Speaker 3: that they're truly going to rely on are fear mongering,
Speaker 3: dangling the carit of codifying Row versus Wade, and making
Speaker 3: things more affordable for American people in some level where
Speaker 3: that's through healthcare. I don't know what, but I feel
Speaker 3: like those are going to be. That's what they're really
Speaker 3: going to press on, and it'll be TBD if.
Speaker 2: Those things come to fruition.
Speaker 3: And that's what worries me, because we can't just keep
Speaker 3: doing the dangling in front of the voters and then
Speaker 3: expect them to show up, because at this point it's
Speaker 3: getting old. So that's my first sort of political prediction.
Speaker 1: I think. Just tying into that, I feel like the
Speaker 1: divide between the left and like left leaning people's politics
Speaker 1: and the mainstream Democratic Party is going to continue to
Speaker 1: be more and more or uh fraught and like that,
Speaker 1: like that just the bad faith arguments I see, like
Speaker 1: the version of the left that you hear from mainstream
Speaker 1: like people who just follow like mainstream politics, Like it
Speaker 1: is so just it's like, well, you're all anti semitic
Speaker 1: and petulant and like you just have stupid uh you
Speaker 1: you believe stupid things. So it's just it feels like
Speaker 1: that divide that like we used to have between left
Speaker 1: and right, where the right was like well you're all
Speaker 1: you all just want to like kill babies, Like that's
Speaker 1: also happening on the left now. Yeah, like between the
Speaker 1: Democratic Party and people who have actually progressive politics and
Speaker 1: believing right.
Speaker 3: The irony will be that while they want to call
Speaker 3: progressives or leftists whatever, people left of the Democratic Party
Speaker 3: petulant or whatever, like people are asking for like really
Speaker 3: basic things very basic like.
Speaker 4: For healthcare, they're wing to not be broke exactly, to
Speaker 4: have housing, but they're asking for human rights and needs
Speaker 4: and necessities.
Speaker 5: And I agree with both of you.
Speaker 4: I think my add on to that is more that
Speaker 4: obviously Biden's not gonna win in my opinion as much,
Speaker 4: and I think he has dangled the carrot too much
Speaker 4: in this presidency, that he's lost all goodwill of the left,
Speaker 4: like the leftist people past the Democrats that are like, well,
Speaker 4: we just got to not get Trump, and I think
Speaker 4: kind of an honest campaign, people are not going to
Speaker 4: vote this year.
Speaker 5: I think you have a lot of people not vote
Speaker 5: this year.
Speaker 1: I think I think producer on a host said her
Speaker 1: prediction was she will not be voting, and she you
Speaker 1: can find her in these streets up for people to registering,
Speaker 1: people registered de registered. You can find her with a
Speaker 1: clipboard being like, have you deregistered to vote?
Speaker 3: But I think there's something like, even though that's a joke, right,
Speaker 3: that there is a real feeling of existential defeat and
Speaker 3: dread for people who are like this government is like
Speaker 3: not response, like we're so far behind the rest of
Speaker 3: the world, not just in like when you look at
Speaker 3: the UN resolution for a ceasefire and like the US
Speaker 3: like not us, Yeah, and we're like you realize how
Speaker 3: much of an outlier of the US is, Like we
Speaker 3: fall behind in a lot of other metrics as compared
Speaker 3: to quality of life and other developed nations. And so
Speaker 3: I think the irony will be that while they there's
Speaker 3: going to be these look, what's going to happen is
Speaker 3: they're gonna put every They're gonna lay all the failures
Speaker 3: of the Democratic Party at the feet of progressives and
Speaker 3: people on the left, that's all.
Speaker 1: And as they always do.
Speaker 4: I feel like there's a very common conversation amongst like
Speaker 4: my friends of color that are like, well, like who
Speaker 4: can get dual cinistionship in the countries that their parents
Speaker 4: immigrated from to come here, because like it doesn't seem
Speaker 4: like we can sustain a life here.
Speaker 5: In the United States.
Speaker 4: Like, oh yeah, that is the energy that is being
Speaker 4: brought into the twenty twenty four even so, I just
Speaker 4: have a bad feeling about I think a lot of
Speaker 4: the goodwill that Biden had kind of won by winning
Speaker 4: the presidency in twenty twenty, like this hope he has
Speaker 4: sustained that like ah, we defeated Trump. We did it,
Speaker 4: like everyone was like, okay, and now what now what Biden?
Speaker 5: We're holding your feet to the fire.
Speaker 4: Do the things he said, and as he failed throughout
Speaker 4: these past four years, you know, or three years right now,
Speaker 4: you know, I think people have lost all hope.
Speaker 5: They're like, we don't even care if Trump gets reelected
Speaker 5: because it's not getting better.
Speaker 3: And yeah, and I think that's what's like, really, that's
Speaker 3: what makes it a very intellectually fraught kind of decision
Speaker 3: to make. Right, Like this guy is telling you, he's like,
Speaker 3: I will brutalize like immigrants, Like I'm telling y'all day one,
Speaker 3: it's fucking on. And then it's like, well, can it
Speaker 3: be that much worse? Like it fucking can be. But
Speaker 3: then this fucking guy is like lying to us, and
Speaker 3: we're like we're having to watch just like untold horrors
Speaker 3: unfold before our eyes and feel like we're completely inert
Speaker 3: as a nation to intervene or do anything about it.
Speaker 3: And so there's such a I don't know a lot
Speaker 3: of philosophical uh, tug of war are going to be
Speaker 3: happening in a lot of people's heads. I think a
Speaker 3: lot of people get Yeah, no, for real, because I mean, honestly,
Speaker 3: I think people who may want to sit this vote out.
Speaker 2: You probably may have the luxury of that.
Speaker 3: If you live in a state that's so solidly blue,
Speaker 3: like you could vote for fucking you know whoever the
Speaker 3: monopoly man as a right candidate or whatever.
Speaker 1: But in other states it's it's different.
Speaker 3: And I think that's what is so uh, what's is
Speaker 3: what makes everything so contentious right now, because on one hand,
Speaker 3: it's like when you people, when people hear that they
Speaker 3: don't like Biden, they the that the only way that's
Speaker 3: perceived is you want Trump. It's like, I don't fucking
Speaker 3: want Trump either. What I am trying to do is
Speaker 3: see if there's any way that I can extract any
Speaker 3: kind of concessions out of a of a political candidate,
Speaker 3: uh that is more in line with a worldview that
Speaker 3: seems humane, and and that's where it becomes. That's where
Speaker 3: it feels really fucking gross, because on some level, if
Speaker 3: you've lived in this country long enough, feel like, I
Speaker 3: don't know if they can because it's just going to
Speaker 3: be like this.
Speaker 2: I think this election is going to.
Speaker 3: Be status quo versus you know, diet dictatorship, diato dictatorship.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, diet coke dictatorship because the leader drinks
Speaker 1: diet cook but it might just be full on dictatorship.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I mean I'm trying to like make it
Speaker 1: a little bit euphimistic. Again, these are yeah predictions. There's
Speaker 1: no world where it's not Biden versus Trump, right, like
Speaker 1: that's that's happening. Like there's still these like panicked op
Speaker 1: eds that are still dropping as of this recording, where
Speaker 1: it's like Biden needs to hand over the keys right now,
Speaker 1: like get out of there, like you know.
Speaker 4: It's yeah, I mean I really haven't even seen, which
Speaker 4: I guess is why I kind of forgot it was
Speaker 4: going to be an election year. I haven't seen any
Speaker 4: campaigning on the left for another candidate, you know, I
Speaker 4: haven't heard any other options besides Biden going for reelection.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean there's gonna be Jill Stein. I think
Speaker 3: she's coming back, right Cornell West, and.
Speaker 1: Cornell West is like it's our only hope at this point.
Speaker 3: And I don't even know if that's gonna you know,
Speaker 3: it's it's fucking it's grim out there.
Speaker 1: There's just no leadership on the left, which I think
Speaker 1: is going to make it so that this contest between
Speaker 1: the like mainstream and the left is going to be
Speaker 1: won by the mainstream, and like the left is going
Speaker 1: to be made to look like shit in the mainstream
Speaker 1: media and just just about everywhere, which is going to
Speaker 1: be very frustrating and going to make it almost impossible
Speaker 1: to talk to a lot of people. So that's the
Speaker 1: good news. Uh. The bad news is uh, and I
Speaker 1: this is really a prediction, but just the AI way
Speaker 1: AI is being I don't know thought about. I could
Speaker 1: see it being a big like market disruption because there's
Speaker 1: still like a massive market value for these companies using AI,
Speaker 1: where they're like this is the way of the future,
Speaker 1: and then the reality of the product is like when
Speaker 1: you use AI, it's so bad that like people get
Speaker 1: fired like this CEO of Sports Illustrated got fired at
Speaker 1: the end of at the beginning of December for you
Speaker 1: like creating AI sports writers and just like not telling anyone.
Speaker 1: So I don't know, it's I just I keep having
Speaker 1: these moments where I'm like doing things that I used
Speaker 1: to be able to do, like trying to do research
Speaker 1: on the internet. You just like can't do it anymore.
Speaker 1: It's completely fucking broken, like it. It's really like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just disrepair. And that there was this idea once
Speaker 1: that I had that you could just assume that things
Speaker 1: would continue to get better and that that was both
Speaker 1: you know, politically, like people would continue to have like
Speaker 1: more and more rights, uh and also just you know, oh,
Speaker 1: well we built like you know, the internet is a
Speaker 1: thing now, and then the Internet will continue to get better.
Speaker 1: And it's just so far from the reality now like that,
Speaker 1: I don't think people even like recognize that that change
Speaker 1: has happened, but things getting worse like that from a
Speaker 1: consumer just like from a day to day life perspective, uh,
Speaker 1: feels feels like it's happening more and more. And that's
Speaker 1: like in both cases, both like with regards to the
Speaker 1: left and with regards to just like things getting worse
Speaker 1: on a day to day like how we live our
Speaker 1: lives basis. It really feels like there's an opportunity for someone,
Speaker 1: like some leadership to step up and put these things
Speaker 1: to words. But it I don't know, it's just it
Speaker 1: hasn't happened to this point because it's the United States
Speaker 1: and there's not a lot of like media attention. There's
Speaker 1: not a lot of oxygen for that sort of thing, right,
Speaker 1: I do think like in the next couple of years
Speaker 1: there could be like it does feel like people are
Speaker 1: out enough on the mainstream the old version of the
Speaker 1: mainstream media that like there could be some sort of
Speaker 1: movement that happens that is just kind of feed with
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 3: I mean, one thing I do since is that every
Speaker 3: like less and less people are feeling the ability to
Speaker 3: live comfortably.
Speaker 1: Yes, And all you see.
Speaker 3: Are things like like you know, legislators talking about cutting
Speaker 3: pensions and like changing like retirement and things like that,
Speaker 3: and it it does get to a point where, like,
Speaker 3: I'm something is going to break on some level, Like
Speaker 3: it's really hard to imagine. I'm surprised it really hasn't
Speaker 3: yet because the cost of living being so high and
Speaker 3: just the complete warping of the quote unquote American dream
Speaker 3: of like what is attainable and what is not anymore
Speaker 3: that weighs heavily on a lot of people, and there
Speaker 3: something like that energy is going to manifest into something.
Speaker 3: I'm not quite sure what that is, but it's it's
Speaker 3: boiling right now. It's not even like bubbling. I think
Speaker 3: it's like roiling under the.
Speaker 1: Surface manifesting into fascism for a certain part of the population.
Speaker 1: And sure since twenty sixteen, but there's got to be
Speaker 1: room for somebody who's actually telling the truth about what
Speaker 1: it is right.
Speaker 3: Right exactly, And I think like the closest thing, I mean,
Speaker 3: like when Sean Faine of the United Auto Workers was imploring,
Speaker 3: like saying, like, hey, you know that we talked about
Speaker 3: this on with Vincent Bevans, talking about like you know,
Speaker 3: when you're talking about successful mass movements, a lot of
Speaker 3: the stuff you got to do is you got to
Speaker 3: work in the off season. And one of the things
Speaker 3: Sean Fayne was saying was that he'd like other unions
Speaker 3: should time their contracts to expire in twenty twenty eight
Speaker 3: so that there could be a real general strike that
Speaker 3: like would hit many different industries simultaneously.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right at the end of Trump's second presidence.
Speaker 3: But with the way they are, it's like that's the
Speaker 3: closest dately, Like that's what that's where we're head.
Speaker 5: We're looking at.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly, and that's how we're going to
Speaker 3: fucking change something. But yeah, that I mean, there's so
Speaker 3: many so many things out there. The one thing I
Speaker 3: also I am thinking will happen is I feel like
Speaker 3: there there has to be some kind of reckoning with
Speaker 3: what is happening in Gaza in this next year. I'm
Speaker 3: not sure if that manifests in some geopolitical way, whether
Speaker 3: that's like the lack of support for Biden or whatever
Speaker 3: other candidates or other governments, or in the form of
Speaker 3: like extremist terrorism. But I just the part I just
Speaker 3: cannot see what is happening right now and think this
Speaker 3: all goes away when Hamas is destroyed.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just don't. Things don't work like that.
Speaker 3: Human emotion does not work like that, And I think
Speaker 3: it's really misguided for people to think that things were
Speaker 3: that we were, that we could be somewhat safer as
Speaker 3: a result of like this is like indiscriminate bombing campaign
Speaker 3: of the Israeli government. So I just don't know how that.
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know if it's a reckoning for
Speaker 3: net and Yahoo. I don't know what what what that's
Speaker 3: going to be.
Speaker 1: But I feel like it can be a reckoning for Bide,
Speaker 1: Like I think it's gonna be that Biden doesn't get elected, And.
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's it and I but then
Speaker 3: then you have to I wonder how many people right
Speaker 3: are you know, like they said people were progressive until Palestine. Again,
Speaker 3: I wonder how many people who are going to get
Speaker 3: sucked into the Like okay, just put that out of
Speaker 3: your mind and like maybe Joe Biden will give everyone
Speaker 3: a free bicycle in twenty twenty four, like if that's
Speaker 3: gonna be enough. But yeah, like I just no, could
Speaker 3: you have free e bikes? I'm like, oh well, oh
Speaker 3: hold on no for a second, now, I know what
Speaker 3: kind of like suddenly they've spoken to the consumer and
Speaker 3: all of us. But yeah, I just there's there's just
Speaker 3: way too much emotion. There's no way I can read
Speaker 3: the news and not feel sick to my stomach. Yeah,
Speaker 3: And that's what is so disturbing to me, is like
Speaker 3: I don't like that the powers that be believe that
Speaker 3: people who are engaging.
Speaker 1: With the news can just kind of set it aside.
Speaker 3: I know many people can, but I've seen a lot
Speaker 3: of people who suddenly like weren't very political, be like
Speaker 3: oh my.
Speaker 2: God, like it's so bad there.
Speaker 3: I'm like, wow, welcome to Earth, but yeah, it really earth.
Speaker 1: Vox All right, and then my last prediction is propeller hats.
Speaker 1: Propeller hats everywhere I'm put my money where my mouth is.
Speaker 1: I like little hats. Yeah, the little spinny hats. I
Speaker 1: am completely leveraged up to my neck propeller hats. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I said what I said. Those are those are any predictions.
Speaker 2: Fashion otherwise culture?
Speaker 5: Ooh, fashion or culture? Let me think? I mean, I
Speaker 5: do feel.
Speaker 4: Like the propeller instry is about They're coming in.
Speaker 2: Stop spotting the chat jack.
Speaker 4: I do feel like there is gonna be this like
Speaker 4: implosion in the fashion industry. As someone who's just like
Speaker 4: chronically on TikTok and I need my brain is frying,
Speaker 4: I do feel like that the cycles are moving so fast,
Speaker 4: and as much as there's so much talk about fast
Speaker 4: fashion being bad, it is still like, I feel like
Speaker 4: at an all time high because people are so trying
Speaker 4: to meet these trend expectations and things are spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning,
Speaker 4: spinning out of control.
Speaker 5: Ire like the propeller hats.
Speaker 4: I hope that they kind of have a reckoning in
Speaker 4: and of itself, because it's a conversation I think with capitalism,
Speaker 4: with everything falling apart, in the country, things are just
Speaker 4: not what they were. Like even if you're trying to
Speaker 4: thrift in things, it's like stuff is falling apart because
Speaker 4: the fabrics, you know, the what is it, the shrinkage
Speaker 4: or whatever, Like we're costing inflations making things cost more,
Speaker 4: but they're also using cheaper quality fabrics.
Speaker 5: So it's like you're.
Speaker 4: Paying more for a product you to buy the same
Speaker 4: thing ten years ago, and it's not even the same.
Speaker 1: Quality as ten years ago. Quality in fashion is definitely
Speaker 1: like I've seen that observation, like I don't pay enough
Speaker 1: attention to it for it to like, but a lot
Speaker 1: of people are like, yeah, like look at a sweater
Speaker 1: now versus what a sweater like a comparable sweater from
Speaker 1: a similar company would get back.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I've even like I have a sweater from
Speaker 4: American Eagle that I bought in college and it is
Speaker 4: still very nice as a sweater. I get complimented on
Speaker 4: all the time whenever I wear it. And if I
Speaker 4: were to buy a similar sweater at American Eagle to day,
Speaker 4: it will fall apart in a week or not a week,
Speaker 4: like a year, Like I probably where that sweat of
Speaker 4: the same amount of times I've worn this sweater and
Speaker 4: I've seen the wear.
Speaker 1: Like.
Speaker 4: I don't even shop at American Eagle anymore, not only
Speaker 4: because it's like not my style, but I used to
Speaker 4: buy underwear there. They have a pretty good underwear deal.
Speaker 4: I think most women in this country know what I'm
Speaker 4: talking about when it comes.
Speaker 1: To American underwear deal. Yeah, it's like.
Speaker 5: Ten for thirty five.
Speaker 4: It's been the same forever, but like the same underwear
Speaker 4: from them, and it's just like disintegrade.
Speaker 1: It's made of cobwebs.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the mad with your hands.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you put and you're like, where did it go?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 5: And it's not my dog? I promise it like it's.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do. Really, I do feel like there's going
Speaker 1: to be. It might not be this year, but there's
Speaker 1: going to be. And I think it's happening in our
Speaker 1: individual minds. Everybody individually is like, this ship is not work.
Speaker 1: Like this operating system that we been operating off of
Speaker 1: for the past you know however many decades is no
Speaker 1: longer working. The companies are like, oh, I can sell
Speaker 1: worse shit for more money, and if we all do
Speaker 1: that and call it inflation, we're good. Yeah like that, Yeah,
Speaker 1: And like the fucking government can't say shit to us
Speaker 1: like that, so things are just completely out of the
Speaker 1: control of any human. Capitalism is just completely you know,
Speaker 1: grinding down everything they possibly can, like it doesn't work anymore.
Speaker 1: People are recognizing that individually, but because the whole system
Speaker 1: is like kind of part of this self perpetuating hive
Speaker 1: mind of capitalism, nobody is like stepping up as a
Speaker 1: leader because the media is you know, is like capitalism
Speaker 1: central nervous system, and they don't want that to happen,
Speaker 1: you know, just like kind of like that, right.
Speaker 3: That's why I think like de influencing has been like
Speaker 3: kind of an interesting movement in that direction, where it's
Speaker 3: like the gospel of like stop the coppying of the
Speaker 3: new shit.
Speaker 5: You know What's crazy though with the de influencing.
Speaker 4: I feel like TikTok as an app itself like rejected
Speaker 4: the influencing so hard they created the TikTok shop, And
Speaker 4: now every time I'm on TikTok, it's like every post I'm.
Speaker 1: Watching is a ad.
Speaker 5: It's like, have you tried the unbrushed?
Speaker 4: And I'm like, you can't tell me that's not a
Speaker 4: brush I can buy from the fucking beauty supply store. Right,
Speaker 4: that is not a revolutionary curly device, and you're not
Speaker 4: going to make me spend three dollars.
Speaker 2: And I keep hearing, well, how about this beca shop.
Speaker 3: You heard a pink sauce, so you heard a pink sauce,
Speaker 3: Well how about blue sauce?
Speaker 1: Because that's why.
Speaker 4: And it's two ninety nine on the TikTok toop click
Speaker 4: right now, and I'm like, no, I'm not buying any
Speaker 4: of this bullshit. So I I don't know. I feel
Speaker 4: like TikTok's going to implode. I do feel like the
Speaker 4: fun note fun makeup is going.
Speaker 1: To come back.
Speaker 3: I think fashion prediction, all of my clothes from high
Speaker 3: school are gonna be so relevant and people are gonna
Speaker 3: think I'm a motherfucking fashion god when I pull up
Speaker 3: in my varsity volures fucking tracksuit, my baggy ass rocko
Speaker 3: wear denim jacket with jeans.
Speaker 1: It's all my rainbow propeller head. And who said that.
Speaker 1: I know it sounded like me, but that was a
Speaker 1: actually Miles.
Speaker 3: No, No, You're right no in the rainbow propeller hat,
Speaker 3: giving new meaning to the term fly.
Speaker 1: Let's take one more quick break we'll come back and
Speaker 1: look at movies, and we're back and finally just wanted
Speaker 1: to look at I think we do this pretty regularly
Speaker 1: in this episode what movies predicted for twenty twenty three
Speaker 1: and what they think we have in the store for
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. So twenty twenty three was predicted by Click.
Speaker 1: The Adam I came up recently? Didn't we talk about that?
Speaker 1: It did?
Speaker 4: We talked about it on a different episode movies episode
Speaker 4: because Brian.
Speaker 1: Was like, no, I like it was on MIC because.
Speaker 4: Brian was like, Adam Sandler, movies like, weirdly get really
Speaker 4: sentimental in the middle for no reason, even it's like
Speaker 4: a comedy.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And ironically, after we had the conversation, my partner was
Speaker 4: watching Click in our apartment and we have.
Speaker 1: A little is having a moment's having a moment again.
Speaker 4: We have the dog camera app or whatever, but I
Speaker 4: have the dog with me here in Texas and I
Speaker 4: just get a notification that's like your dog is barking
Speaker 4: And I was like, there's no way the dog is
Speaker 4: with me.
Speaker 5: And he was like, I was watching Click.
Speaker 1: Wow parking in the movie Wow amazing. So Click. He
Speaker 1: ends up fast forwarding to the year twenty twenty three.
Speaker 1: That's he up after having had his stomach staple in
Speaker 1: the hospital, and the hospital is in the year twenty
Speaker 1: twenty three, and it is like a cheap futuristic version
Speaker 1: of uh like movie future, Like the everything's the same
Speaker 1: except like doors like slide like they're on the Death Star.
Speaker 1: It's like when you walk in and out Cape back
Speaker 1: and sale is still looks great in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 1: So they got that prediction correct, But like not a
Speaker 1: ton of sci fi flourishes. I think somebody is moving
Speaker 1: around on like one of like one of those people movers,
Speaker 1: which those are now you know, much more common with
Speaker 1: the hoverboards and the birds and all that shit. But yeah,
Speaker 1: glass liposuction, Uh wait about wait what about glass? There's
Speaker 1: just glass everywhere, Like it's just like a very list
Speaker 1: Yeah esthetic is like glass and clean and yes, it's
Speaker 1: sloppy and dirty right now. Yeah. There is like one
Speaker 1: part where they go to his office. He's like Architect
Speaker 1: of the Year or some shit, and they go to
Speaker 1: his office and like it's this big, crowded like work lobby.
Speaker 1: It's like, well, that shit doesn't happen anymore. We don't
Speaker 1: spend time in big groups anymore. But for the most part,
Speaker 1: like there's no big flourish where it's like and everyone
Speaker 1: is holograms, you know. So Click kind of nailed twenty
Speaker 1: twenty three Avengers endgame. Granted it was like predicting only
Speaker 1: seven years ago, but they fast forwarded to the year
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. In that one, they skip forward five
Speaker 1: years and that version of the future is pretty much
Speaker 1: just like kind of shut down and shitty, but basically looks,
Speaker 1: you know, like not a lot of people are out
Speaker 1: in the streets. I remember. It's just kind of a
Speaker 1: pressed version of twenty eighteen, which is kind of what
Speaker 1: we got mailed. It fucking nailed it a vendors endgame.
Speaker 1: So there's this weird like Wikipedia list of movies set
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three that came that like include a
Speaker 1: bunch of movies that like came out in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1: Like there's like the children's movie The Bad Guys, which
Speaker 1: came out in twenty twenty two and apparently is set
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three, but like, does that mean no
Speaker 1: other children's films were set in that year? Like it
Speaker 1: even includes movies that came out in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 1: So it's just like that is something that people talk
Speaker 1: about that, like the great filmmakers have all been scared
Speaker 1: to make a movie set after the advent of smartphones
Speaker 1: because smartphones kind of just like fuck up our ability
Speaker 1: to exist, as you.
Speaker 3: Can have really cool plot holes if cell phones don't exist.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. So anyways, Uh, chout out to the movie
Speaker 1: Year twenty twenty three and then twenty twenty four. We've got,
Speaker 1: of course, nineteen sixties Beyond the Time Barrier, which is
Speaker 1: about an Air Force pilot who travels in the future
Speaker 1: discovers that nuclear testing has destroyed much of the Earth
Speaker 1: driven humanity indoors created a race of mutants due to
Speaker 1: cosmic plague.
Speaker 3: Oh, this race of mutants is called podcasters, right, They
Speaker 3: only go indoors and they talk.
Speaker 1: In their little foam things and it just ranked all day. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The drawings that they use as like backdrops are just
Speaker 1: like everyone lives in little spheres and do they home, well,
Speaker 1: do they at least own their own sphere? No?
Speaker 2: Or are theyting from right? Yeah.
Speaker 1: There's nineteen seventy five cult movie A Boy and his Dog,
Speaker 1: which finds Don Johnson committing a series of sexual assaults
Speaker 1: with the help of a telepathic dog in the US
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty four, which is now post nuclear waste
Speaker 1: landfalling World War four four. Yeah, I've heard of world
Speaker 1: War three, but world War four, yo, that's kind of tight.
Speaker 1: I like that.
Speaker 5: I like that there was like there's definitely two new
Speaker 5: world War.
Speaker 2: Yea, just conjuring up, like, well, wait till world War six.
Speaker 2: You're like, what damn about four five?
Speaker 1: Like world wars start happening like faster than the Furious movies.
Speaker 1: It's just like a new one every year. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I guess world War one and World War two weren't
Speaker 4: like that drastically far apart, you know, right, because it's
Speaker 4: crazy to think that a World War three been too
Speaker 4: long happened.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean it's we got we got the
Speaker 2: materials sport right.
Speaker 1: Now, it's been through it. Come itching for a new one.
Speaker 1: Highlander to the Quickening set in the year twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: Imagine the future in which the guy from Highlander invented
Speaker 1: a laser shield to replace the dying ozone layer back
Speaker 1: in the nineties. So now all of humanity lives in
Speaker 1: darkness and everything basically looks like Gotham City for some reason.
Speaker 3: Oh well, like, yeah, okay, I'll take a like any look,
Speaker 3: anything that'll fight climate change.
Speaker 1: Man, Yeah, whis a little dangerous because so like on
Speaker 1: the one hand, you know, minus a bit about space lasers,
Speaker 1: the idea of a giant corporation ignoring the health and
Speaker 1: well being of the planet in order to like maintain
Speaker 1: their economic stranglehold, because it does. It does turn out
Speaker 1: out spoiler alert, that the ozone layer has fixed itself,
Speaker 1: has healed itself, and the company is continuing to just
Speaker 1: like profit off a problem that doesn't exist anymore. It's
Speaker 1: like the idea of a corporation doing something that underhanded
Speaker 1: and like us being under the thumb of corporation with
Speaker 1: an economic stranglehold on the world, U seem relevant, although
Speaker 1: like corporations in the government lying to you to keep
Speaker 1: you scared, but it's actually all going to be okay.
Speaker 1: Is not the climate message that I think we need.
Speaker 1: That like climate change is another pandemic, you know, that's
Speaker 1: a little worrying. Yeah, well, anyways, there can only be
Speaker 1: one there.
Speaker 3: Can only be one Highlander, and there's only one solution
Speaker 3: to climate change, and that's to get off fossil fuels,
Speaker 3: and they still haven't done that anyway, at least they
Speaker 3: said it phase down at COP twenty eight pays down,
Speaker 3: Phase down, John phase Down.
Speaker 1: There's also a bunch of twenty twenty four movies that
Speaker 1: are from the like in the same as Endgame, because
Speaker 1: Endgame took place in twenty eighteen, then jumped forward to
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. Now every like Marvel movie for a
Speaker 1: while took place in twenty twenty fourth. So we've got
Speaker 1: chang Chi happened in spring twenty twenty four. The Falcon
Speaker 1: in the Winter Soldier happens spring to summer twenty twenty four,
Speaker 1: Summer twenty twenty four, Spider Man Far from Home, summer
Speaker 1: into autumn twenty twenty four, Spider Man No Way Home.
Speaker 1: I didn't realize it was those happened executively. And then
Speaker 1: we can all look forward to autumn of next year
Speaker 1: because that's when the Eternals happens, as well as Doctor Strange.
Speaker 1: In the Multiverse of Madness.
Speaker 2: Well we will, we will be in a multiverse of madness.
Speaker 1: We will in the In the fall, you're not anybody
Speaker 1: who's dreading the election. When we say the Fall of
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. Jesus Christ also twenty twenty one's Godzillaverse
Speaker 1: Kong set in twenty twenty four, So be the year
Speaker 1: that the hollow earth theory is proven. Right, we can
Speaker 1: all look forward to that. Okay, man, that movie, like
Speaker 1: watching that movie while like walking on a treadmill during
Speaker 1: the pandemic is like the that memory. What a dark memory?
Speaker 1: What a dark time? Just being like I moved my
Speaker 1: body and watch God's theyll A Verse Kong.
Speaker 5: Can you get one of those desks treadmills.
Speaker 1: Jack, No, just a treadmil treadmill, This is a real tremill. Yeah,
Speaker 1: a treadmill.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, yeah, I just have well my desk.
Speaker 1: My desk is set up like a hamster cage with
Speaker 1: like a little water bottle that I can just move
Speaker 1: my head to the side and drink from. And then
Speaker 1: it has a big wheel that I can run on
Speaker 1: if I get we get too much energy pent up? Okay,
Speaker 1: and wood chips.
Speaker 3: Like everyone, everyone, give one really positive prediction, even if
Speaker 3: it seems so impossible. Just manifest it right now. Put
Speaker 3: it up, put put get your crystals out, throw it
Speaker 3: on your vision board. Manifest something right now. Becca do
Speaker 3: you manifest something? What what's you? What's your what's your
Speaker 3: hyper positive manifestation.
Speaker 2: Prediction for twenty twenty four that can either be for yourself.
Speaker 1: Or the earth.
Speaker 4: A hyper positive self manifestation is that.
Speaker 5: My partner I will buy property.
Speaker 1: Okay, call it into existence.
Speaker 5: Calling it into existence?
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes, Jack.
Speaker 3: Do you have anything hyper positive that you would you
Speaker 3: know that you would just put out there for the
Speaker 3: sake for the good of the earth.
Speaker 1: The left will find a leader, uh and consolidate around
Speaker 1: a leader based on just the pure charisma and propeller
Speaker 1: hat of that leader.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, I like that.
Speaker 1: I like that.
Speaker 3: I wish I had got I don't have nothing, man,
Speaker 3: I think it's all gonna be sucked up.
Speaker 1: Make you feel better.
Speaker 2: One thing I believe that could happen.
Speaker 3: I think it is possible that we will see some
Speaker 3: kind of billionaire paradigm shift.
Speaker 2: I think we're gonna see by millionaire like one.
Speaker 3: Like not even that, like but one tough guy's and
Speaker 3: be like, you know what, watch this, it's gone. This
Speaker 3: is for y'all and I'm still here, you know, And
Speaker 3: in a way that might begin to get people. I
Speaker 3: think someone might do something like that, well, which then
Speaker 3: people will laugh at him or her or whoever. But
Speaker 3: I do believe that maybe someone might have a crisis
Speaker 3: of consciousness.
Speaker 4: That I hope Jeff Bezos pays off all our student loans.
Speaker 4: He says, you know what, I did, fuck y'all for
Speaker 4: four years and promised this.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's like, yeah, exactly, and then it's gonna
Speaker 3: be fucking Bezos and Cameron Diaz running for president on
Speaker 3: the ticket, and they'll be like, fuck it, bro, I'm
Speaker 3: down for Bezos Diaz.
Speaker 1: I guess there you go.
Speaker 2: He has money, he has the funds, he has the funds.
Speaker 1: All right, Uh, that's gonna do it for a predictions episode.
Speaker 1: I think we're back tomorrow with a live episode like
Speaker 1: where we're also in the ere tweet. All right, so
Speaker 1: watch last for that guy. If we sound different, we're
Speaker 1: like wisened. Hopefully no massive catastrophes at that time. Yeah,
Speaker 1: But until then, I hope you guys are enjoying the
Speaker 1: new year, and we'll talk to you all tomorrow, all right,
Speaker 1: Bye bye,
