Speaker 2: the other.
Speaker 1: Pros all of us. If I if I had to
Speaker 1: guess based on that dang movie that I think just
Speaker 1: came out, we were having a lively discussion to producer
Speaker 1: Victor was doing his best not to spoil it, but like,
Speaker 1: did you.
Speaker 2: See the the promo for it, the trailer.
Speaker 3: No, there's a promo truck with logs on the back.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I did see that.
Speaker 3: I was driving her.
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's literally what our entire generation thinks whenever
Speaker 2: we were behind a truck.
Speaker 1: But it's so funny, Like, please, my name is Jacko.
Speaker 1: Brian That over there is my co host for today.
Speaker 3: Paul Miles is never coming back.
Speaker 1: She killed Miles in a roundabout way. You put a
Speaker 1: final destination on Key and all of us.
Speaker 2: And yeah, and also like also the Saw movies also
Speaker 2: at the same time.
Speaker 1: Kind of added on a hat. But you needed to.
Speaker 2: Get the tricycle part because I thought it was cute,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, this is the episode where we tell
Speaker 1: some people what is trending on this Wednesday, May twenty.
Speaker 1: First this afternoon, let's see TikTok has reinvented soup. Uh
Speaker 1: is one way to read this story. Super producer Victor linked.
Speaker 4: Super producer producer Victor linked true to this video on
Speaker 4: TikTok where it says, pov, you started water based cooking,
Speaker 4: and now your skin is clear, your stomach is thriving,
Speaker 4: and you recover from illness overnight.
Speaker 1: Holy shit, to.
Speaker 2: Be fair, it's like water based, Like it's based.
Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: And then like that text is over a series of
Speaker 1: pictures of soups being cooked and then vegetables being steamed,
Speaker 1: which it's.
Speaker 2: Do you think the skin is just getting better because
Speaker 2: like their face is over steamed. They're just getting They're
Speaker 2: just getting like a spa treatment. You know.
Speaker 1: It's like I I think all of the things that
Speaker 1: they're showing look delicious and healthy. So I'm not here
Speaker 1: to say this is a bad This isn't like one
Speaker 1: of the bad ones where you know people are like
Speaker 1: I eat a little bit of plastic every day and it's.
Speaker 2: You're getting This is why I also don't mind like
Speaker 2: the Stanley cup water thing.
Speaker 3: I'm like, as long as.
Speaker 2: You're drinking water, and eating your veggies kids, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I also don't mind the the crispy diet coke
Speaker 1: thing where they just have like a really nicely refrigerated
Speaker 1: diet coke. Now that is poison, but I just like
Speaker 1: that it's not like and if you drink five diet
Speaker 1: cokes you'll never die gone. They're just really a lot
Speaker 1: of loving attention lavished on the experience of having a
Speaker 1: single die cook. But yeah, this just seems like, I
Speaker 1: don't know, taking centuries old recipes and cooking techniques and
Speaker 1: turning it into a viral trend by being like hot
Speaker 1: water based water based cooking.
Speaker 2: This is like when like white people discovered turmeric and like, right,
Speaker 2: we were like why were our fingers stained for centuries
Speaker 2: for you to just find this out?
Speaker 1: That's right. We love rediscovering things and being like pov,
Speaker 1: you've just invented a new type of cooking.
Speaker 2: We need to, like, I think, instead of trying to
Speaker 2: like do a revolution or like do things through a
Speaker 2: system where we legislate human rights, I think we need
Speaker 2: to distract white people with like Easter eggs and like
Speaker 2: constantly help them, like think like they're discovering new things,
Speaker 2: you know, just be like, Oh my god, good job.
Speaker 2: It's America. Oh my god, water based cooking.
Speaker 3: Good job.
Speaker 1: If that were happening right now, I'm I'm not sure
Speaker 1: I'd be able to distinguish it from what from our
Speaker 1: current timeline, because I feel like I feel like white
Speaker 1: people love being online and on TikTok looking for little
Speaker 1: Easter eggs and clues that have been left for them
Speaker 1: by the powers that be. Mister Beast is hot now.
Speaker 1: It seems like he went to the same person as
Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg hot all dating brick.
Speaker 3: I guess when he got jacked or whatever.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he just or like Matt right, is that
Speaker 1: the Matt rife? Is that the guys who the comedian
Speaker 1: who has like a jaw implants feels like mister got.
Speaker 2: Like, oh oh, it's like classic yeah, or Mullaney mullaney too.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, Well, Mullenie's jaw has changed.
Speaker 1: Interesting.
Speaker 2: Don't parasocial get mad at me, audience. Okay, his jaw
Speaker 2: looks different.
Speaker 1: I have seen that online, but I didn't. I guess
Speaker 1: I didn't notice that. I thought it was god.
Speaker 3: Mister Bee's face looks crazy.
Speaker 1: Good, crazy good. Sorry, he looks.
Speaker 2: His facial hair looks like the Tiger King he does.
Speaker 1: It could be that he's just accentuating his jawline with
Speaker 1: a little uh beard, you know what I mean. That's a.
Speaker 3: No, his face is different.
Speaker 2: Also Leah Sampson, a good friend of mine who's hilarious comedian,
Speaker 2: lives in New York. The first comment under this complex
Speaker 2: post is what half white, half black woman is responsible
Speaker 2: for this?
Speaker 3: She posted underneath.
Speaker 1: Also, oh, Michael B.
Speaker 2: Jordan has done. He's gotten his graphics, like we all
Speaker 2: need pointing out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't. We don't mind it. Sometimes sometimes you're
Speaker 1: allowed to have your jaw redone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he totally like he didn't have a chin before,
Speaker 2: and then now he.
Speaker 1: Has The Wire. He's plays a character who goes missing
Speaker 1: and uh it's one of the more heartbreaking moments in
Speaker 1: The Wire. Yeah, and he did not have a chin
Speaker 1: back then.
Speaker 3: I think by the time he was on like Parenthood,
Speaker 3: he had a chin.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah great.
Speaker 3: But I don't know.
Speaker 2: Men can get gender firming care. That's fine. That's I'm
Speaker 2: fine with that, you know, if they feel better about themselves.
Speaker 2: I just don't think mister Beast is hot.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: I don't think this hot now it's official. Find a
Speaker 1: new angle.
Speaker 3: Is he on the what is what chocolate? Does he
Speaker 3: sell beast treats or whatever?
Speaker 1: The fuck? What the beast treats? I thought it was
Speaker 1: just like mister beast Chocolate. I didn't know that it
Speaker 1: had a name that made you feel like a dog.
Speaker 3: I don't think they. I think I made that up.
Speaker 2: But hire me for branding beastables, crustables and Beastables.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think he's hot. Now I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: Next question, No further questions, your honor. Uh. Trump is quiet,
Speaker 1: making it impossible to get COVID boosters for most Americans,
Speaker 1: essentially despite the fact that he has tried to take
Speaker 1: credit for the COVID vaccine roll out, calling it one
Speaker 1: of the greatest miracles of the ages. He is also
Speaker 1: you know, he knows that his base does not like
Speaker 1: COVID and does not like to does not like the VEA.
Speaker 2: They like COVID, they love COVID.
Speaker 1: They can't get anough of it. They did not like
Speaker 1: the vaccine, and so he is doing what the people want.
Speaker 1: And you know, with the help of RFK, the government
Speaker 1: had previously recommended seasonal vaccines for all Americans six months
Speaker 1: and older, and now they have announced their direction going forward,
Speaker 1: which will be only given to adults sixty five and older,
Speaker 1: as well as children and younger adults with at least
Speaker 1: one high risk health problem.
Speaker 3: Everyone else is going to get injected with COVID.
Speaker 1: That's right. You do have to come in and get injected.
Speaker 3: Objective yet injected. You have that, you're gonna have a card,
Speaker 3: it'll say, here's COVID.
Speaker 1: One immediate blatant problem with this change is that the
Speaker 1: FDA didn't offer any intention to establish carve outs for
Speaker 1: caregivers of people who still qualify for COVID vaccines under
Speaker 1: its new rules, which would be smart. It just it
Speaker 1: feels like they give everything the level of thought that
Speaker 1: a Hollywood screenwriter would, where it's just like, we're gonna,
Speaker 1: we're gonna make this change because it's going to look
Speaker 1: like this to people who aren't really paying attention and
Speaker 1: moving on.
Speaker 2: We you know, it's almost worse because Hollywood screenwriters have
Speaker 2: to answer to their fucking nerd fans, and Trump has
Speaker 2: to answer to like the press, the White House Press Corps,
Speaker 2: which are now people that are.
Speaker 3: Like, hey, Trump, I heard your dick is good.
Speaker 1: Like.
Speaker 2: How is you dick so good, Like that's the extent
Speaker 2: that they ask him Bush.
Speaker 1: Now, that's a really good question that a lot of
Speaker 1: people are asking. My dick is great. They're saying it's
Speaker 1: one of the great dicks of the ages, miracles of
Speaker 1: the ages.
Speaker 3: Sure if you heard that it needs a boot, it
Speaker 3: doesn't need a booster.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, but a lot of people are pointing, uh,
Speaker 1: pushing back on this and saying, you know, you have
Speaker 1: to make allowances for people who are going to be
Speaker 1: you know, caregivers for.
Speaker 3: This, so to COVID potentially, well, I'm sure.
Speaker 1: The Trump administration will be quick to respond to that. Aka,
Speaker 1: just ignore the shit out of it. Have you seen
Speaker 1: Tom Cruise eating popcorn of late?
Speaker 2: I've heard so many things about Tom Cruise and popcorn.
Speaker 2: I've seen like random I'm like, why is he going
Speaker 2: to have a popcorn line? Like why am I seeing?
Speaker 2: There was one where he was walking a stage and
Speaker 2: he pointed out that somebody had already eaten their popcorn
Speaker 2: before the movie.
Speaker 1: There's walking off over.
Speaker 3: Popcorn to AMC employees.
Speaker 1: And now we've seen what it looks like as he's
Speaker 1: eat popcorn and he's like basically throwing fastball, Like each
Speaker 1: piece of popcorn he's like throwing into his mouth.
Speaker 3: He does his own stunt ferocity.
Speaker 1: It's kind of wild.
Speaker 2: Do you have Can you imagine Tom Cruise being normal
Speaker 2: in any situation?
Speaker 1: No, exactly, It's it is such a nightmare to like
Speaker 1: have somebody point out how quickly you've eaten your popcorn.
Speaker 1: I always finish my popcorn way too fast, and like
Speaker 1: I go in with intention being like I'm not going
Speaker 1: to finish my popcorn. I'm gonna finish this popcorn is
Speaker 1: going to be here at the like act too, you know,
Speaker 1: like as as we're heading into act three, I'll be
Speaker 1: polishing this bad boy off. I'm gonna do a thing
Speaker 1: where I eat the top half with my drink and
Speaker 1: then the bottom half I mix it. I'm sure, sour
Speaker 1: patch kit, I got.
Speaker 5: Two things of popcorn, one for the pre movie, for
Speaker 5: the maybe another third one for after I go double
Speaker 5: handed and my mouth at the same time, scoop.
Speaker 1: Double handed and your messages, all of.
Speaker 2: It in as fast as possible inhal you know, like
Speaker 2: one of the worms from Dune, just just gobbling it up.
Speaker 3: It's all over my face.
Speaker 2: After I can't look anyone in the eye, and that's
Speaker 2: how you.
Speaker 3: Enjoy a movie.
Speaker 1: It is like as people are making fun of Tom
Speaker 1: Cruise for how he eats popcorn, and it is strange.
Speaker 3: I do a thing about him, though.
Speaker 1: Everybody like I when I eat popcorn, I look insane, ridiculous. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, just like shoving it into my mouth.
Speaker 3: The theater is dark.
Speaker 2: It's not to watch the movie better, it's to eat
Speaker 2: your popcorn and shame.
Speaker 1: There's no like you know, it's the opposite of a
Speaker 1: Rese's there's that reces ad campaign. There's no wrong way
Speaker 1: to eat a reces There's no right way to eat popcorn.
Speaker 1: It's just always bad. I feel like I'm when I
Speaker 1: put it in my mouth. My wife is My wife
Speaker 1: is like, what are you? Why do you eat it
Speaker 1: like that? And I just ask her to, you know,
Speaker 1: kindly turn around and not look at me. I'm hideous.
Speaker 1: But it is such a Tom Cruise way to eat popcorn,
Speaker 1: just like he I have seen. It's like, have you
Speaker 1: ever seen somebody who like pops cashews or like peanuts
Speaker 1: into their mouth. It's like kind of it's like an
Speaker 1: upward toss into the mouth.
Speaker 2: It's very like I'm an alpha male. I'm making the
Speaker 2: business deals here.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: But every popcorn thing and it's just so high risk,
Speaker 1: high reward, which is how Tom Cruise lives his life.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I would try that, and if I got
Speaker 1: like three in a row, I would feel like I
Speaker 1: was on the top of the on top of the world. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I would be like taking out my eye like I would.
Speaker 2: It would be Jack doesn't do his own popcorn.
Speaker 1: I don't. I need somebody to step in for me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because it's not like throwing it up and catching it
Speaker 1: in your mouth where it's like a nice lazy arc.
Speaker 1: It's just an upward fastball.
Speaker 2: I don't have the patience to wait for it to
Speaker 2: fall down. I need it in my mouth faster. Also,
Speaker 2: I think the other surprising thing is that Tom Cruise
Speaker 2: eats popcorn, which like I'm like, what, I would think
Speaker 2: he would eat some sort of gray goo, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's gray go. And then I mean
Speaker 1: it is one thing that is still impossibly movie star
Speaker 1: slash scientology like hyperbaric chamber of him is eating the
Speaker 1: popcorn one piece at a time. Is like who has
Speaker 1: that restraint? You know?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm like that's that would be a bigger stunt
Speaker 2: for me than learning how to ride a motorcycle.
Speaker 3: Offic club. I'm like, yeah, yeah, I got it.
Speaker 2: Whatever, But I'm like the popcorn, I can't wait. They're like, oh, cut,
Speaker 2: go again.
Speaker 1: God, the people behind me would be getting pelted with
Speaker 1: so many individual pieces of popcorn, because I'd also be
Speaker 1: like in a panic to get more popcorn and off sweating.
Speaker 1: You know, let's take a quick break and we'll be
Speaker 1: right back breaking with me. I don't know. We're just
Speaker 1: gonna have a normal adult conversation in a public place,
Speaker 1: just because I think it's going to go so well
Speaker 1: that I want other people to see how well it's
Speaker 1: not all right?
Speaker 2: Cool?
Speaker 1: And we're back. And for some reason, during the break,
Speaker 1: we started talking about Clint Eastwood movies, because that's like,
Speaker 1: that is like an alpha move of throwing popcorn, and
Speaker 1: it feels like east Wood. I feel like it's a
Speaker 1: little too much work for Eastwood. Like Eastwood would eat
Speaker 1: a single kernel at a time, but like kind of suspiciously.
Speaker 2: And but that's why his eyes are so squinty all
Speaker 2: the time. He started to get popcorn in them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just like one at a time and kind of
Speaker 1: like without joy.
Speaker 2: Yeahcorn with him randomly Yeah, yeah, like such one dimensional
Speaker 2: female characters where they're like I hate you and then
Speaker 2: all of it, all of a.
Speaker 3: Sudden it turns into like lust when you want.
Speaker 1: To Secretly everybody wants to have sex with Clint Eastwood
Speaker 1: no matter how old they are and how old he is.
Speaker 2: I know, I was like, like I could I watched
Speaker 2: his movies because I like missed them or what like
Speaker 2: they weren't in my zeitgeist, and so I was like, oh,
Speaker 2: I should watch these as an adult to see what
Speaker 2: the like cultural references. And it's literally just like Clint
Speaker 2: Eastwood writing scripts of what he thinks is cool from
Speaker 2: like probably when he was like a teen, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and also he like just can't stop having kids,
Speaker 1: so it might not be that dissimilar from what.
Speaker 3: Oh really is he like that too?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, he just like walks into There's a very
Speaker 1: funny podcast, The Action Boys, that covers Clint Eastwood movies
Speaker 1: a lot, and they talk about how his sperm is
Speaker 1: like airborne. You just like get in the same room
Speaker 1: with them and like you be come pregnant.
Speaker 3: How many kids does he have?
Speaker 1: He is eight? But like he's still having them like
Speaker 1: with people ninety.
Speaker 2: Yeah ew ew.
Speaker 3: And he's married. He's been married like five times.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. Gross.
Speaker 3: At least it says children at least.
Speaker 1: Eight, at least eight that we know.
Speaker 3: There's no way to know.
Speaker 2: He's had numerous casual and series okay, yeah, many of
Speaker 2: which have overlapped.
Speaker 3: Gross.
Speaker 2: This man will sit on any any woman and chairs
Speaker 2: and any chairs at a Republican national conference.
Speaker 1: That's right, all right. There is a new survey that
Speaker 1: The Guardian is covering that finds that almost half of
Speaker 1: young people would prefer a world without internet. This is
Speaker 1: a UK study that has found that nearly seventy percent
Speaker 1: of sixteen to twenty one year olds feel worse about
Speaker 1: themselves after spending time on social media, and half would
Speaker 1: support a digital curfew that would restrict their access to
Speaker 1: certain apps and sites past ten pm. Forty six percent
Speaker 1: said they would rather be young in a world without
Speaker 1: the Internet altogether.
Speaker 2: I'm going to be honest, it was fun growing up
Speaker 2: with limited access to the internet. Like I had fun,
Speaker 2: I went outside. I'm not necessarily saying it's better because
Speaker 2: I wouldn't know that experience, but like I was just
Speaker 2: thinking about all the crazy shit we did as kids,
Speaker 2: and how it was like real interactive social stuff and
Speaker 2: it was hard, like there was bullying and whatever, but
Speaker 2: like we came up we made our own fun.
Speaker 3: We were like tepeeing houses.
Speaker 1: And shit, you know, yeah, we will.
Speaker 3: Do that anymore. Do they do they do tp houses?
Speaker 1: Well, we have talked about how the two things that
Speaker 1: have faced massive shortages are toilet paper and eggs, the
Speaker 1: two things that we used to throw at people's houses.
Speaker 3: Shit.
Speaker 2: So yeah, damn, these kids are growing up in a struggle.
Speaker 3: I never used to know.
Speaker 1: It's been bad for quietly retaliated against nemeses in middle school.
Speaker 2: There was also like a thing recently where they talked
Speaker 2: about how people like our phones like tracked how many
Speaker 2: selfies we would delete and then try to advertise like
Speaker 2: beauty products to us.
Speaker 1: Like yeah that makes sense, isn't that a thing?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like that's so gross. It's like they're literally squeezing
Speaker 2: us for everything. And these are like kids like teens,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and if your phone is just like subtly suggesting
Speaker 1: to you that you need to fix the way you look,
Speaker 1: like that can't be good.
Speaker 3: When you're a teenager. You need skincare.
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is crazy, it's yeah, and it feels
Speaker 1: I do really feel like it's taken away a big
Speaker 1: chunk of people's free will and that we're in a
Speaker 1: much worse place than we realize. When it comes to
Speaker 1: the amount of time, a quarter of respondents spent four
Speaker 1: more hours a day on social media. Forty two percent
Speaker 1: of those surveyed admitted to lying to their parents and
Speaker 1: guardians about what they do online, and while I'm forty
Speaker 1: two percent said that they had lied about their age.
Speaker 1: Forty percent admitted to having a decoy or burner account.
Speaker 1: I mean that stuff all seems pretty harmless. Uh. Twenty
Speaker 1: seven percent said they pretend to be a different person completely.
Speaker 2: They're like, no, mom, I'm just jacking off in here.
Speaker 2: I'm not looking at things to consume. I swear to God,
Speaker 2: I swear to God, I'm just jerking it. I'm just
Speaker 2: jerking it to the friend of yours. But I'm not
Speaker 2: trying to buy more shit, I promise.
Speaker 1: It. Yeah. I just I think boredom is underrated, you know.
Speaker 1: I think like having to make your own fun and
Speaker 1: just like come up with shit and not always have
Speaker 1: an option that is going to distract you and occupy
Speaker 1: your brain with something that has been like market tested
Speaker 1: to divert you and give you an idea that like
Speaker 1: steers you towards consumption. Like I feel like in a
Speaker 1: very obvious way that is it would be preferable to
Speaker 1: not exist online.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I like it is good for like
Speaker 2: being aware of like political issues and like if you
Speaker 2: can get outside of your bubble, which a lot of
Speaker 2: people can't online. But I also feel like there's not
Speaker 2: enough like interaction with like human beings when you're trying
Speaker 2: to like solve a problem for like critical thinking, Like
Speaker 2: it used to be we have a question and you'd
Speaker 2: be like, well, do you think it's this or that?
Speaker 3: And like we wouldn't immediately go to our phones.
Speaker 2: Right, but we're kind of what is it called like
Speaker 2: offloading or substituting outsourcing outsourcing, Yeah, logic to like AI
Speaker 2: or whatever. Yeah, so even even now, like yeah, you
Speaker 2: can look it up, but do you know like the
Speaker 2: sources correct. I don't even think we have necessarily the
Speaker 2: talk it out skills that we used to.
Speaker 1: You know, I definitely don't have the talk it out
Speaker 1: skills that I used to have. I'm fortunately just have
Speaker 1: an AI script writer that writes everything that I say,
Speaker 1: so in your brain, in my brain.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and planning and in black situation.
Speaker 1: That's the one place that I trust Elon Musk. I
Speaker 1: think he's off base on a lot of stuff, but
Speaker 1: I do trust him to implanting a chip into my
Speaker 1: brain to help me google things in my brain.
Speaker 2: Here's a crazy thing. I don't know if this is
Speaker 2: bad to say, but I went to college with someone
Speaker 2: who's like third in line at Neuralink.
Speaker 1: Wow, in line, like in the leadership, in line to
Speaker 1: get the thing put no, no.
Speaker 2: No in leader like he's at he's been at the
Speaker 2: company since we like graduated.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So I'm like, I'm I'm very curious, like what the
Speaker 2: internal because a lot of like, like I worked on
Speaker 2: neural probes in my Masters and the idea was to
Speaker 2: implant a probe to help a prosthetic move by you
Speaker 2: thinking right, so like amputees and stuff. But like with Neuralink,
Speaker 2: I'm like, what else are they doing up there? And
Speaker 2: then like because initially when it came out, I was like, Oh,
Speaker 2: that's cool. They're like trying to do a similar thing,
Speaker 2: you know, assist people who have don't have like access
Speaker 2: to movement or whatever.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's tough.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like that. Do you know back in
Speaker 1: the days when before all tech had just like gone
Speaker 1: down this like a dark fascist libertarian directions optimized, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was like optimistic. I was like, that's cool, Like
Speaker 1: it's going to be enable us to like create new senses.
Speaker 1: Like it not just like helps people who have lost
Speaker 1: certain senses, but like, you know, it could enable us
Speaker 1: to like have feeds that like enable us you.
Speaker 2: Know, biomimicry stuff like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So suddenly like you're just trailed by a drone
Speaker 1: that gives you like a bird's eye view of everything
Speaker 1: around you and it's like goes directly into your brain
Speaker 1: or like something. You know, that stuff all seemed like cool,
Speaker 1: and now it just feels like, no, they'd find a
Speaker 1: way to like fuck with you that.
Speaker 3: They monitor your head.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly. And speaking of monetization, Trump's pick to
Speaker 1: head the IRS, Billy Long is it's just like I
Speaker 1: don't I don't even note, Like I guess I just
Speaker 1: feel like we have to keep talking about this shit
Speaker 1: because it's so openly corrupt. But he is somebody who
Speaker 1: like has told business executives like that he's going to
Speaker 1: give them tax breaks, like they're just he's like, they're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean this is gonna be great. He's like making
Speaker 1: sure that we never like he's giving them these passes
Speaker 1: that are basically like I'm audit proof because of this
Speaker 1: guy who and like the way they're like talking about
Speaker 1: they're just speaking openly on these like recorded zoom calls
Speaker 1: and just being like, yeah, it's pretty crazy. Uh. I
Speaker 1: call up one of my friends and I say, Hey,
Speaker 1: the IRS Commissioner Billy Long, the new one coming in
Speaker 1: that we're all excited about. Is Billy coming too the inauguration?
Speaker 1: My friend says, well, he doesn't have a ticket. He's
Speaker 1: not because he's not confirmed yet. And I said, well,
Speaker 1: make him my guest. And then he goes on to
Speaker 1: say they had one dinner, spent a few nights together, and.
Speaker 3: That he it was a whirlwind romance.
Speaker 1: What yeah, exactly. And then he said that he was
Speaker 1: told that his company companies would no longer have to
Speaker 1: worry about IRS scrutiny on like certain subjects because like
Speaker 1: specifically these employee retention tax credits, which the IRS was
