Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, welcome one and all to this afternoon edition
Speaker 1: of Trended Paltrows Ski Crash Musical. Because that thing about
Speaker 1: Gwyneth Paltrow and the ski that's a musical. Now, that
Speaker 1: is one of the things spending. We will get to that,
Speaker 1: but that doesn't excuse the fact that I have not
Speaker 1: introduced myself and my co host. I am Miles and
Speaker 1: that is Brian. Hello, Brian. Okay, uh, you doing okay?
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm doing great. It's it's nice and stormy and
Speaker 2: gloomy and spooky outside. Okay, like it?
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, we were on the same coast. We got
Speaker 1: a bit of a bit of the spooky waters tonight.
Speaker 1: Look good time to bundle up, you know, put a
Speaker 1: gas log on.
Speaker 2: Nice big tartan poncho on.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Wow, that looks crazy.
Speaker 2: Like Irish Mexican or something.
Speaker 1: Yeah. That is a combination of fabrics and styles. But yeah,
Speaker 1: well you've threaded the needle culturally with that garment. Let's
Speaker 1: tell the people what's trending today. Up first, Gwyneth Paltrow.
Speaker 1: It's called Gwyneth ghost skiing. You said, what the fuck
Speaker 1: is that? Well, this December in London Town in Jolly
Speaker 1: Old England. You can see the debut of a new
Speaker 1: stage musical which is all about that Gwyneth Paltrow trial
Speaker 1: about when she slammed into the optometrist who couldn't enjoy
Speaker 1: wine anymore. Remember, he was so fucked up from that
Speaker 1: collision that he no longer could could be enjoying the
Speaker 1: wine like he used to. Life just isn't the same.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's done by the same people, this group
Speaker 1: Awkward Productions that sounds about right, who describe themselves as
Speaker 1: quote harbingers of queer chaos. H And it will seemingly
Speaker 1: involve some audience participation by making audience members the jury
Speaker 1: in the trial. These are the same people that did
Speaker 1: the Diana the Untold and untrue story that one reviewer called,
Speaker 1: quote the most unhinged piece of theater in existence.
Speaker 2: That actually sounds kind of appealing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, that's that. That that sounds about right. I
Speaker 1: just wish, like I just don't care about Gwyneth Paltrow,
Speaker 1: But I guess you can make it work because it
Speaker 1: is so absurd. I do like the audience participation aspect, Like,
Speaker 1: you know, you can maybe have fun with that if
Speaker 1: you're getting like super lit in the fucking theater.
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, love improv, love improv from untrained.
Speaker 1: Love improv from drunk people from the audience.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it.
Speaker 1: Did you ever see Point Break live in.
Speaker 2: La Actually yeah yeah, yeah, Yeah, that's.
Speaker 1: Like the one time you can drag someone up from
Speaker 1: the crowd and it works, because.
Speaker 2: That was huge, Yeah, for you know, a small theater thing.
Speaker 1: Exactly if people don't know, there's like this show where
Speaker 1: like they would they would do Point Break, basically act
Speaker 1: out the entire movie Point Break, but someone from the
Speaker 1: audience would be pulled up to be Johnny Utah and
Speaker 1: the whole thing was like, yeah, they can't have chops
Speaker 1: like we just like you're Johnny Utah tonight. So maybe
Speaker 1: they but this is probably not gonna be that. But hey,
Speaker 1: what we need is the fucking musical about the fucking
Speaker 1: the boat brawl in Alabama.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you could definitely. He definitely built that story out
Speaker 2: a little bit.
Speaker 1: This man, it has all kinds of layers to it. Man,
Speaker 1: white supremacy.
Speaker 2: That could be a beautiful ballet.
Speaker 1: Actually, wow, oh, you don't want to go lowbrow with it.
Speaker 1: You want it to be like someone's seminal work. Love
Speaker 1: modern dance. Oh yeah, which, by the way, the charges
Speaker 1: are I'm pretty sure the black man who was defending
Speaker 1: himself got charged with assault while some of the white
Speaker 1: defendants skated.
Speaker 2: I think, Yeah, it sounds about on brand.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it sounds about on brand for this place we
Speaker 1: call America. The next thing that's trending, there's a new
Speaker 1: Spider Man adjacent film. I guess it is what we're
Speaker 1: calling it because it's a Sony Lade Spider Man. It's
Speaker 1: called Madam Web So, No, what the fuck is it
Speaker 1: called Madam Web? Yeah, that was right, Madam Web. I'd look,
Speaker 1: I'm struggling, but Madame webso's wax web Museum. But yeah,
Speaker 1: cause Sony, like this is a Sony movie, and they're
Speaker 1: trying to make Spider Man movies without the Spider Man,
Speaker 1: as we saw with Venom and obviously the fantastic Morvious.
Speaker 1: Because it is Morbon time in this house, we do
Speaker 1: believe that it is Morben time. It is Morbon time.
Speaker 1: But this one stars Dakota Johnson as the titular Madam Webb,
Speaker 1: who's a paramedic who can see into the future after
Speaker 1: having a near death experience. And then there's like a
Speaker 1: trio of these young women, including Sidney Sweeney, who are
Speaker 1: all being terrorized by this dude that I'm like, yo,
Speaker 1: that's Spider Man's Like, no, no, no, that's not Spider Man's
Speaker 1: that's an evil guy. That's Ezekiel Simms pretending to it
Speaker 1: being evil Spider Man. I don't know enough about the
Speaker 1: lore to fully wrap my head around this, but it
Speaker 1: turns out like the the three younger people that he's
Speaker 1: trying to go after are all people that are destined
Speaker 1: to become Spider people of their own in the future.
Speaker 1: This is them, that's ps for them, pre Spider I
Speaker 1: guess I think it's like Terminator, where it's like, you know,
Speaker 1: this dude came in to try and eliminate John Connor
Speaker 1: or some shit, trying to get these Spider people before
Speaker 1: they get it popping.
Speaker 2: The impression I get from the trailer is that this
Speaker 2: is another and a long line of not necessarily time
Speaker 2: travel movies, but like time loop movies. Alla, your Ground
Speaker 2: Hugs Days, your Edge of Tomorrow, Yeah, your source code,
Speaker 2: all that stuff, and yeah, they're pulling from a lot
Speaker 2: of influences and it just it kind of just feels
Speaker 2: like a product looking for an audience. Yeah, if that
Speaker 2: makes sense, it doesn't feel very organic.
Speaker 1: They're like, it's fifty shades of gray mixed with Sydney Sweeney.
Speaker 1: Uh we got this Billie Eilish track Spider Man adjacent lore?
Speaker 1: Is that enough folks? Well that give buy a ticket?
Speaker 1: I don't know the aesthetically too, it looks Lily's dated,
Speaker 1: like like as filmmaking, it just feels as one critic.
Speaker 2: Who working on this, how long is it sitting on
Speaker 2: the shelf?
Speaker 1: Yeah, they said, someone described as a run of the
Speaker 1: mill two thousands thriller is what it reminded them of.
Speaker 1: But hey, there you go. Okay, next up the Supreme Court.
Speaker 1: You know, they've they've put out a new code of
Speaker 1: ethics obviously because Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito just many
Speaker 1: like even everybody, even Soda mayor there are people who
Speaker 1: are like, y'all are kind of making a lot of
Speaker 1: money off of this. This is this the most appropriate
Speaker 1: thing when you are sitting on the highest court of
Speaker 1: the land.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: So they're like, hey, we need a code of ethics
Speaker 1: to maybe try and dampen those stories or or fix
Speaker 1: the reputation of the court. And it turns out like
Speaker 1: it does fuck all. Like basically it just codifies the
Speaker 1: rules that existed now into this code of ethics that
Speaker 1: Clarence Thomas was following when he did all that shit. Anyway,
Speaker 1: so it's like very toothless. Like even in the beginning
Speaker 1: of the document about this new code of ethics, it
Speaker 1: states that quote, for the most part, these rules and
Speaker 1: principles are not new. Who wrote this, This is coming
Speaker 1: from the court.
Speaker 2: Okay, so they let the Supreme Court right their own.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I want to go home.
Speaker 1: And then here's the other cool part. You know how
Speaker 1: like a lot of times you'll be like, like a
Speaker 1: local judge can be disbarred and shit or whatever, unseated
Speaker 1: or impeached or whatever, like for you know, egregious conflicts
Speaker 1: of interest kind of thing. It's because like those rules
Speaker 1: actually have teeth, like they're enforceable with a lower court.
Speaker 1: The thing that they get into this philosophical conundrum with
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. They're like, but like there's no higher
Speaker 1: court to appeal to than us, So what's so I
Speaker 1: guess it is what it is, Like it's so bad,
Speaker 1: it's so it's it's it's nonsense. Yeah, but hey, they
Speaker 1: can make their own rules.
Speaker 2: Now, Hey, it's a great country. Great country.
Speaker 1: I mean, like we have people taking millions in gifts,
Speaker 1: like shady property deals, lavish vacations, and they're like, well,
Speaker 1: my company like directly didn't have any business in front
Speaker 1: of the court. It's like, but your industries do. And
Speaker 1: that's that's where your influence. That's how you you turn
Speaker 1: that influence into you know, tangible results for your industry
Speaker 1: or business.
Speaker 2: Look, look, folks, this isn't going to stop until you
Speaker 2: run up in their houses. That's the long and short
Speaker 2: of it.
Speaker 1: Run up, get done up. Yeah, that's what they'll say.
Speaker 2: I just haven't put it plainly like.
Speaker 1: I mean, like, you know, for think about how like
Speaker 1: how terrified they were when people were actually going outside
Speaker 1: of Supreme Court justices houses, like they were getting the
Speaker 1: protections we had never seen.
Speaker 2: But imagine how shift they'll be when it's like ten
Speaker 2: thousand people pulling up to their house and not for
Speaker 2: a party.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's where I think that's why
Speaker 1: they want to begin to help, you know, enact more
Speaker 1: laws that make it much more difficult for people to
Speaker 1: like gather protest, et cetera. Because those are the kinds
Speaker 1: of those are the kinds of cases that these sort
Speaker 1: of conservative, wealthy activist types want to get to their
Speaker 1: to their supreme country.
Speaker 4: This is oh yeah, yeah, for sure, this shit is trash,
Speaker 4: But this is the way this is. This is the
Speaker 4: mechanisms in which we see it all come together. They
Speaker 4: just they hang out at their weird little theme parks
Speaker 4: with Hitler statues and figure out how to just.
Speaker 2: Non in international waters and shit.
Speaker 1: Like yeah, exactly, all right, let's take a quick break
Speaker 1: and we'll be right back after this. And we're back,
Speaker 1: and I know you're like, because this is what kind
Speaker 1: of country this is? You were saying that in relation
Speaker 1: to how there's really there's no justice just us, as
Speaker 1: many people will say, or D'Angelo and Devil's pie, ash
Speaker 1: to ashes, dust to dust, But we're truly also just
Speaker 1: we're a really uninformed and not smart group of people
Speaker 1: in the United States. Unfortunately, there was this viral thing
Speaker 1: that went off. It's like video where this woman was
Speaker 1: talking about how she went to Alaska and she was
Speaker 1: absolutely gobsmacked, surprised, her wig flew when she found out
Speaker 1: that Alaska is not an island and is actually part
Speaker 1: of the North American land mass that you could drive
Speaker 1: to on land.
Speaker 2: Miss in the right time of year, you can drive
Speaker 2: to Russia. Wait.
Speaker 1: So she finds that it's wild because like Canadian people
Speaker 1: were looking at them like, are y'all for fucking real? Uh,
Speaker 1: because they they obviously share a border with Alaska. But
Speaker 1: like other people Americans in the comments are saying, they're like,
Speaker 1: oh shit, did I thought that? Shit too? It's not
Speaker 1: an island because like on a map, it's an island,
Speaker 1: and you're like, that's not what that means. God, please
Speaker 1: go a fucking island.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, And in rand McNally hamburgers eat people.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, right, right right, it's like, but it's always
Speaker 1: in the lower left, like next to Hawaii. I thought
Speaker 1: it was next to Hawaii. Yeah. Yeah, this place that
Speaker 1: has that gets all kinds of snow that we know
Speaker 1: is one of the coldest places in America. Is it's
Speaker 1: right next to Hawaii because it's on the because it's
Speaker 1: not part of the contiguous United States.
Speaker 2: It's just wait until they find out what the fuck
Speaker 2: a mercader projection is and that the sizes of countries
Speaker 2: are not what you think that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, for real, Wait, till they hear about the annexation
Speaker 1: of these places to Actually, they probably wouldn't care.
Speaker 2: They'd be like, boy, yeah, how we got these fucking places?
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, far flung.
Speaker 1: Never mind, never mind, never mind, never mind, never mind,
Speaker 1: never mind. We didn't We didn't kidnap anyone and be like, oh,
Speaker 1: you want your queen to come up off these lands
Speaker 1: real quick anyway. So that's that was just so wild,
Speaker 1: Like I couldn't like it was. It's hard to hear
Speaker 1: when other people were like, put on a map, it's
Speaker 1: an island, and you're we're like Jesus.
Speaker 2: It's it's the kind of stupid where you have to
Speaker 2: as a normal person, you have to take it second
Speaker 2: and recalibrate your whole brain to be on that level
Speaker 2: of like, wait, what do you even Oh you mean
Speaker 2: you mean the thing on them?
Speaker 1: Oh so you're oh so you're all the way not smart. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: like holy shit. Yeah, it's a little sad, sad, as
Speaker 1: a Donald Trump would put it. And then lastly, let's
Speaker 1: check in with some really really cool American people. Let's
Speaker 1: start off, because like there's all kinds of hearings happening
Speaker 1: right now. One of the big ones to touch on. Obviously,
Speaker 1: yesterday we were talking about Senator Mark Wayne Mullen, uh talking,
Speaker 1: you know, how he wanted to fucking throw hands in
Speaker 1: the Senate. He was on Sean Hannity's show, and you
Speaker 1: know kinda defended what he said or tried to explain.
Speaker 1: He was definitely on a very sympathetic, friendly show to
Speaker 1: be able to do this. But here, let's just take
Speaker 1: a quick look at what Mark Wayne Mullen was thinking
Speaker 1: when he decided that, you know what, maybe I will
Speaker 1: fucking try and fight Sean O'Brien to the Teamsters union.
Speaker 5: That's right.
Speaker 6: I think any other response kind of would have been
Speaker 6: a little gutless.
Speaker 1: But you know, I would agree with that.
Speaker 5: I mean, what don't people want me to do? If
Speaker 5: I didn't do that, people in Oklahm would be pretty
Speaker 5: upset at me. That's not how we raised I supposed
Speaker 5: to represent Oklahoma values.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, maybe actually do things that like
Speaker 1: are tangible benefits for your constituency.
Speaker 2: They're both like lame white dudes doing MMA, and.
Speaker 1: I know they both do mma.
Speaker 2: Do MMA. They were probably chopping it up, putting each
Speaker 2: other in choke holds and ship before the vapor.
Speaker 1: They're like, yo, what baby? Oh yeah, dude, watch this, dude,
Speaker 1: you do the gee choke show them. I just do
Speaker 1: the geecho, just use the gee to choke.
Speaker 2: They just they're just blowing clouds, chopping it up.
Speaker 1: The best is then they go on like to brow
Speaker 1: down on like the art of toxic masculinity and violence
Speaker 1: is this next part where he's like, what the heck
Speaker 1: happened to this country?
Speaker 6: When I grew up, it was a little bit of
Speaker 6: a different time when me and my friends, when we
Speaker 6: played football, when we played basketball, I played hockey. You know,
Speaker 6: I don't think there was a single day that we
Speaker 6: were playing sports where we didn't drop the gloves or
Speaker 6: you know, have a brief interlude of you know, throwing
Speaker 6: fists and it all be over. You pick up and
Speaker 6: you start playing again. You know, when all of a
Speaker 6: sudden did we become that woke? That the thought of
Speaker 6: two people, uh one responding to a threat directly saying, Okay,
Speaker 6: you threatened me, here's your opportunity take me.
Speaker 1: Up on him.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, it's political correctness. It's it's all of a sudden,
Speaker 5: you got to worry about somebody's feelings. But all by
Speaker 5: the way, the left can say whatever they want.
Speaker 1: Wow, it's so I love that.
Speaker 2: I love how that guy called him a clown and
Speaker 2: you're a joke and a fraud. And he's like that's
Speaker 2: a threat.
Speaker 1: That's a threat, and I'm gonna have to throw down
Speaker 1: now because how dare you? I swear it's I mean,
Speaker 1: but it's funny. He's like, yeah, there would also like,
Speaker 1: how was he saying there wasn't a day that went
Speaker 1: by that they weren't like fistfighting. I'm like, was it
Speaker 1: all that lad you were exposed to or some ship
Speaker 1: the fuck was wrong?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm righting off that whole let's not get into it.
Speaker 2: But these motherfuckers never.
Speaker 1: Mind what happened to us. When do we become so
Speaker 1: woke that unchained violence wasn't the solution to every single
Speaker 1: thing that we encountered? What the fuck happened?
Speaker 2: They're ill.
Speaker 1: Then we have Christopher Ray, the head of the FBI,
Speaker 1: is on Capitol Hill and he's getting absolutely grilled by
Speaker 1: Congressman Clay Higgins, Republican, who has been so like he
Speaker 1: is so horny for January sixth conspiracies like inside job,
Speaker 1: false flagshit. And this was during the worldwide threats hearing, okay,
Speaker 1: this is when they have the head of the FBI
Speaker 1: to talk about worldwide threats. Of course, the Republicans are like,
Speaker 1: what about January sixth? And I just want to play
Speaker 1: this part where he's like hitting him with this really
Speaker 1: interesting conspiracy theory that I had not known up until now.
Speaker 7: If you are asking whether the violence at the Capitol
Speaker 7: on January sixth was part of some operation orchestrated by
Speaker 7: FBI sources and or agents, the answer is emphatically saying no, no,
Speaker 7: saying not violence orchestrated.
Speaker 1: If my FBI sources or agents.
Speaker 3: Are you familiar with with you know what a ghost
Speaker 3: vehicle is? Director, your director of the FBI, certainly should
Speaker 3: you know what a ghost buses? Ghost bus? I'm not
Speaker 3: sure if you use that, Okay, okay, pretty common in
Speaker 3: long enforce. It's a vehicle that's that's used for huh,
Speaker 3: his secret purposes. These two buses in the middle here,
Speaker 3: they were the first to arrive at Union Station on
Speaker 3: January sixth, zero five hundred. I have all this evidence.
Speaker 3: I'm showing you a tip of the size.
Speaker 1: Sper mister chairman.
Speaker 3: These two buses, mister completely white is a very significant hearing,
Speaker 3: mister chairman, and these buses are nefarious in nature, and
Speaker 3: we're filled with FBI and foreman stressed as Trump supporters.
Speaker 3: You can deploy it unto our capitol on January sixth.
Speaker 1: Your day is coming you okay, okay, So that's your
Speaker 1: brain on right wing extremism and four chan posts. When
Speaker 1: you say ghosts, I think he's just say Ghostbusters director, Ray,
Speaker 1: have you heard a ghost Buster? You know, a Ghostbuster?
Speaker 2: Is you mean ecdo one? Sir? Yeah, I don't understand.
Speaker 1: And do you believe that those busses were filled with
Speaker 1: FBI in formats, armed with proton packs, dressed as Trump supporters?
Speaker 2: What?
Speaker 1: Huhde? What you're talking about? Man?
Speaker 2: Sorry, he just left the new Ghostbusters movies and he's excited.
Speaker 1: I know, ghost busts, ghost busses feels like some kind
Speaker 1: of like civil rights movie but with ghost Dog with
Speaker 1: Forrest Whitaker.
Speaker 2: It's like, I think, I think it's funny that he
Speaker 2: admits that there's like secret police just right asually. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: they're common, They're coming. I have secret, secret purposes. Yeah wait,
Speaker 2: exact secret purposes.
Speaker 1: You know, I mean, you know, but but we know,
Speaker 1: like okay, uh huh so yeah, really good times being
Speaker 1: spent on the Capitol Hill over there anyway, that is
Speaker 1: gonna do it for us today. We're back tomorrow with
Speaker 1: a whole new episode. So yeah, until then, take care
Speaker 1: of yourselves, take care of each other, get your vaccines,
