Speaker 1: So you don't you're in LA, but you don't know
Speaker 1: if the Hollywood sign has changed colors.
Speaker 2: I haven't looked outside. I saw that on Twitter like
Speaker 2: last night, but I wasn't paying attention.
Speaker 1: The whole thing. The whole LA thing was like so
Speaker 1: fake like they I mean, I guess I guess it
Speaker 1: was by it, like they couldn't actually fly Tom Cruise
Speaker 1: warp speed back to Los Angeles, but just like felt
Speaker 1: I don't know that first of all, that they went
Speaker 1: to Long Beach instead of Venice, like they seemed to
Speaker 1: indicate they were going to Venice, and then it was
Speaker 1: Long Beach.
Speaker 2: So you're talking about like in the closing ceremony they
Speaker 2: had him like transfer it basically to LA.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And so I didn't see the full thing. I
Speaker 2: just saw him like repelling into the tweets about.
Speaker 1: It, and that scared you, and so you ran away
Speaker 1: and stopped at that point. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So you're saying it was just like very fake,
Speaker 2: which does feel very Hollywood.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it just felt like so he got the thing right.
Speaker 1: It just felt the whole closing ceremony in France was
Speaker 1: so like experimental art piece, like what are they trying
Speaker 1: to say, it was like so slow, they didn't give
Speaker 1: a fuck that they were making it, just like in
Speaker 1: a wildly uncomfortable watch. And then the second like Tom
Speaker 1: Cruise repels in and it's like quickly edited. They're like yeah, yeah, YadA,
Speaker 1: YadA YadA, like do the red dot flying across the
Speaker 1: globe like in Indiana Jones And then he's like skydives
Speaker 1: for no reason and makes the Hollywood Sign a different color.
Speaker 1: Although we still don't know and there's no way to
Speaker 1: know really if that's actually happened to the Hollywood Sign
Speaker 1: other than you looking at your window.
Speaker 2: And I refuse to do that. I refuse to give
Speaker 2: Tom Cruise. When I look at my window, I see
Speaker 2: this Scientology building and that's enough attention Tom Cruise for me.
Speaker 1: Done. He had done something to the Scientology building. That
Speaker 1: was the big reveal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's like, this is where the Olympics are going
Speaker 2: to take place now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Hello the Internet, and welcome to this week trend
Speaker 1: edition of Daily. It's a production of iHeartRadio. It's a
Speaker 1: podcast where you take a deep bab into America share consciousness.
Speaker 1: It's Monday morning, Monday afternoon, depending on where you are.
Speaker 1: I'm Jack O'Brien and I am thrilled to be joined
Speaker 1: by very special guest co host with the mo host,
Speaker 1: a hilarious and brilliant stand up comedium writer, actor improviser.
Speaker 1: It's pobably Ganollo.
Speaker 2: It's you, your favorite non Olympian.
Speaker 1: Come on, you're you're an Olympian in our hearts.
Speaker 2: Oh, thank you so much. I will drown. I will
Speaker 2: drown in that pool.
Speaker 1: That was just drown in front of everybody.
Speaker 2: Well, that's like there was that tweet that was going around.
Speaker 2: That's like, if you feel useless in your life, just
Speaker 2: know that there's a lifeguard at the Olympics. It's doing
Speaker 2: nothing and it's like, if I was anywhere near that pool,
Speaker 2: you'd be doing a lot.
Speaker 1: That pool so deep, or at least like the diving
Speaker 1: pools I was. I had the question, how deep are
Speaker 1: those diving pools? They look crazy deep. Yes, I'll go.
Speaker 2: To the other side of the area. I feel like
Speaker 2: every time I saw this, the swimmers go under, I
Speaker 2: was like, save them, and then they came.
Speaker 1: Back up and I was like, oh, get back, Oh no, okay,
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. Yeah, that swimming, I think in particular,
Speaker 1: and there have been videos of this where they show
Speaker 1: you like regular swimmers versus Olympic level swimmers. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: it's just bonkers.
Speaker 2: We're Olympic level swimmers from like the nineteen thirty Yeah,
Speaker 2: like the track athletes, you know. Yeah, they didn't have
Speaker 2: the technology back then, they did.
Speaker 1: Not they also, Yeah, it was just like there were
Speaker 1: like five people in each town who knew how to swim,
Speaker 1: and they they sent them to try and do the
Speaker 1: Olympic for Yeah, exactly, freestyle was really free. It was like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, is this something that that was how
Speaker 1: they swam. But we're gonna talk Olympics. But this is
Speaker 1: of course the episode where we let you get to
Speaker 1: know us a little bit better by telling you guys
Speaker 1: something that we think is overrated, underrated. Let's let's start
Speaker 1: with underrated. Paulavi, do you have something I know? I
Speaker 1: just kind of sprung this on you. You were you
Speaker 1: were not familiar with the format. Do you do you
Speaker 1: want me to kick us off?
Speaker 2: You go either way? I have have something I can
Speaker 2: talk about.
Speaker 1: Hit me with something you think is underrated.
Speaker 2: Cheap people, we exist, we're important. We're getting you free shit.
Speaker 2: Yesterday I was at my dog rescues like adoption event,
Speaker 2: and it had like all these stalls and I just
Speaker 2: went around. First thing I did, fuck the dogs. Okay,
Speaker 2: first thing I did. I went around and I caught
Speaker 2: I'm like the volunteer that's like trying to get some adopted.
Speaker 2: But I'm like, forget this, I need free shit for
Speaker 2: my dogs.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And I was the only one of the volunteers who
Speaker 2: like did like was very Indian about it, and like
Speaker 2: was like, hey, can I get like another stuffed toy
Speaker 2: from my dog? And I came away from that with
Speaker 2: a whole bag of swag, came up on squat. I
Speaker 2: feel like in every family there's like a cheap person
Speaker 2: who like haggles and gets stuff for their family, and
Speaker 2: everybody's like, oh my god, this is so embarrassing, and
Speaker 2: then they get all the free ship.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I feel like, come on, we're out there, we're the
Speaker 2: soldiers doing the brave work of debasing ourselves for free
Speaker 2: shit for you.
Speaker 1: And do you put the stuff to use, like you'll
Speaker 1: you'll actually use those stuff stuff toys.
Speaker 2: Nice, they already destroyed one, you know. I have like
Speaker 2: a ton of treats that I got them. Of course,
Speaker 2: I'm advocating for all the people who can't, you know,
Speaker 2: talk to the waiter themselves, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we can't feel too embarrassed to ask for like birthday,
Speaker 1: or we could pretend it is if you're yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, shout out to the shout out to the cheap.
Speaker 1: My underrated is I got two one is. I think
Speaker 1: my brain was just like, I don't smoke weed anymore,
Speaker 1: but my brain just like has these periods where I
Speaker 1: feel like I'm like having high thoughts and so, uh,
Speaker 1: my two underrateds are seashells and identical twins.
Speaker 2: And like acid flashbacks but yeah flash.
Speaker 1: Works, Yeah, where I'm just like like seeing it again
Speaker 1: for the first time through like high eyes and I'm
Speaker 1: I so, I'm I'm down to shore with my kids,
Speaker 1: and my kids are just running around, you know, obsessed
Speaker 1: with seashells. My eight year old is into collecting broken shells,
Speaker 1: which at a certain point is annoying because what the
Speaker 1: fuck am I going to do with all of these
Speaker 1: broken shells? Like pave a bar parking lot in Key West.
Speaker 1: But the more time I spent with him really looking
Speaker 1: at the seashells, I feel like he's probably right, Like
Speaker 1: the sea just kind of spits out a bunch of
Speaker 1: artwork that is like a minus sixth grader art project artwork,
Speaker 1: Like it's better than ninety percent of the like sculptures
Speaker 1: I have ever made or really seen. And like the
Speaker 1: colors or like the colors usually go together really well
Speaker 1: on the seashells, and.
Speaker 2: You're like, you know what, see, nice job, nice job,
Speaker 2: I see, You're very good, pretty good most of the time.
Speaker 2: I literally had this thought recently because when I was
Speaker 2: a kid, I used to be that kid who collects
Speaker 2: all the seashells, and like even like my dad or
Speaker 2: whatever would bring a seashell back from like a beach
Speaker 2: he was on, and they are like really beautiful, and
Speaker 2: like all the different shapes and the fact that they're
Speaker 2: imperfect but still beautiful.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like a little shard of one that you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: this thing was beautiful. Like the full version of this
Speaker 1: was unbelievable.
Speaker 2: They're homes to creatures.
Speaker 1: They're homes. They are just a bunch of houses for mollusks.
Speaker 2: Tiny homes, tiny tiny huh.
Speaker 1: They were on the tiny home wave before humans. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think I think I just got older and aliced
Speaker 1: over by life and stopped having the wonder. But I
Speaker 1: think I am wrong and the kids are right on
Speaker 1: this one. And seashells are fucking cool. Just straight up,
Speaker 1: they do great work. The ocean does great work every day.
Speaker 1: Plus they've like been in the depths of the sea.
Speaker 1: They've like seen some shit and then you know, came
Speaker 1: out beautiful and they still come out beautiful us. And
Speaker 1: then back to the Olympics. My identical twins one just
Speaker 1: watching synchronized swimming, and they were like, and this is
Speaker 1: our first of six different duos who are identical twins.
Speaker 1: Like they're so like, being an identical twin is basically
Speaker 1: a performance enhancing drug for synchronized swimming, which I don't know.
Speaker 2: I wait, so that was actually a thing, Like they
Speaker 2: were actually twins in synchronized women.
Speaker 1: Yeah, a bunch of there were multiple twins that were
Speaker 1: doing synchronized Yeah.
Speaker 2: I saw that there were a couple track athletes that
Speaker 2: were twins. I forget what their names started with an S,
Speaker 2: but they're like these gorgeous women that were twins and
Speaker 2: track athletes.
Speaker 1: Why are all the track athletes so gorgeous? Those were
Speaker 1: literally I was like, why is everybody so beautiful. What
Speaker 1: the fuck is happening? It's like when you see like
Speaker 1: NFL quarterbacks, and a bunch of the NFL quarterbacks are
Speaker 1: all like really handsome, You're like, why are all these
Speaker 1: track athletes like the most beautiful humans I've ever seen?
Speaker 1: It doesn't make sense.
Speaker 2: We're gonna be like, hey kid, you got a face
Speaker 2: for track?
Speaker 1: You know, face for track? Doesn't make sense. But it
Speaker 1: did make me again like have high mind, just the
Speaker 1: identical twins. Like thinking about it again, I was like,
Speaker 1: this would be like if it wasn't real, it would
Speaker 1: have been invented by a sci fi writer and it
Speaker 1: would have been like a mind blowing work of science fiction,
Speaker 1: Like what if there was a type of person who
Speaker 1: looked exactly like you but also had your like same
Speaker 1: insides and a lot of like your same personality. Like
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just a philosphic, philosophical like mind
Speaker 1: fuck that we just you know, we we've lived with forever,
Speaker 1: so it's not that weird to us. But yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know. And then this like sent me down a
Speaker 1: rabbit hole of just weird Olympic athlete hacks, like apparently
Speaker 1: swimmers have to have really long torsos and short legs
Speaker 1: because like everything below the waist is I guess useless.
Speaker 1: So like Michael Phelps in person looks like he's walking
Speaker 1: around on his knees, but he's got like webbing Yama's wingspan,
Speaker 1: like he's just wild.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then I was I just remember like at
Speaker 2: the time, everybody who was commenting on the Olympics, they'd
Speaker 2: be like, he's so graceful in the water, and he
Speaker 2: looks like a fucking dog on land. He looks disgusting,
Speaker 2: like some sort of deep sea fish. Get the fuck
Speaker 2: off land, Michael Phelps, get back in the water. We
Speaker 2: don't want to see you.
Speaker 1: You look like shit. Pal. Also, water polo players have
Speaker 1: to have long forearms, which is just so that they
Speaker 1: can yeah, just so they can like throw. I guess
Speaker 1: that like helps them with the which is interesting. It's
Speaker 1: just like weird little details of the human body. I
Speaker 1: never would have thought.
Speaker 2: Weird for those people, because everybody's like, oh, you're tall,
Speaker 2: do you play basketball? Like that's a thing, But nobody's like, oh,
Speaker 2: you have long form arms. But yeah, how do these
Speaker 2: people like find It's it's amazing to me when people
Speaker 2: find the thing that they're amazing at like Simone Biles,
Speaker 2: you know, like how she had the body for and
Speaker 2: the mental capacity and like all everything had to come
Speaker 2: together for her to be who she is. That's such
Speaker 2: a beautiful thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I have to give my overrated to
Speaker 1: like every athlete that's not Simone Biles. Like when you
Speaker 1: see how fucking high she umps, it's truly incredible.
Speaker 2: Like she's like five x her height is to the
Speaker 2: boundary line. Because fuck that when she's jumping that high
Speaker 2: and she steps out of bounds, Like, let.
Speaker 1: Her like her just what we do now? If she
Speaker 1: steps out of bounds, that's what we do now. Although
Speaker 1: she was so cool about giving you know, she was
Speaker 1: so chill. Yeah, she like bowed down to the woman
Speaker 1: who won gold and was like really cool. Yeah, fuck
Speaker 1: the boundary line, I got, yeah, well we'll come back,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about we'll do our Olympic uh decompress. But
Speaker 1: I got, I got real into it. I was I
Speaker 1: was like refreshing the metal count over the weekend.
Speaker 2: Oh that was the thing I didn't really care about that.
Speaker 2: Did China win that?
Speaker 1: No, we ended up tied with China for gold, and
Speaker 1: then overall metal count uh, the United States ended up winning,
Speaker 1: so but it was was touch and go there for
Speaker 1: a little while. We needed needed that US men's basketball title,
Speaker 1: and they came through for us. All Right, let's uh,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.
Speaker 1: And we're back and the Olympics are over. We got
Speaker 1: to watch a very weird, very French closing ceremony. We
Speaker 1: got to meet Ygun b girl Raygun on the way out.
Speaker 1: That was wild. So just let's just kind of go
Speaker 1: through impressions thoughts. As mentioned I, you know, Miles and
Speaker 1: I were talking about I was like not prepared for
Speaker 1: how into the Olympics I was going to be and
Speaker 1: then kind of gets me every time, but this time
Speaker 1: in particular, I was refreshing the medal count all weekend
Speaker 1: to see if the US was going to catch China.
Speaker 1: I had multiple conversations where I was like, they should
Speaker 1: have like a gold Derby or like a New York
Speaker 1: Times election needle style list of like expected medals and
Speaker 1: remaining events because because they just like they don't because
Speaker 1: of the tape delay, they're like not trying to be
Speaker 1: very forthcoming about when things are happening. So you'll watch
Speaker 1: someone win a gold on TV and then like not
Speaker 1: know if that gold is already included in the total,
Speaker 1: and like they're very loose with like live. You know,
Speaker 1: it says live sometimes when that shit is not live.
Speaker 1: But anyways, I have that thought every four years where
Speaker 1: I'm like, they should make it easier, Like someone should
Speaker 1: just have like a hacked together unofficial web should be
Speaker 1: that guy.
Speaker 2: I'm seeing it happen.
Speaker 1: I'm seeing it happen, but I'm also not the sort
Speaker 1: of person who remembers to do that.
Speaker 2: Thing I was thinking that about the Olympics in general,
Speaker 2: is like it's really cool to be able to see
Speaker 2: all of these sports that maybe you don't regularly have
Speaker 2: access to or aren't popularized in the same way during
Speaker 2: those four years, and to be able to like get
Speaker 2: really into like I'm not out here like watching two
Speaker 2: hundred meter race, you know what I mean, Like I'm
Speaker 2: not out here watching synchronized swimming, even though there may
Speaker 2: be events, but it makes me want to go to
Speaker 2: more events in between, because it does give you an
Speaker 2: appreciation for all of these different techniques and mental fortitude
Speaker 2: that all of these different athletes have to have.
Speaker 1: You're fucking bonkers, like the way they're able to suspend
Speaker 1: themselves in the water like and just do whatever they
Speaker 1: want with their body, like in time with one another
Speaker 1: is really uh.
Speaker 2: And the timing of it because I don't remember water, Like,
Speaker 2: how do you hear the beat? Like you just counting?
Speaker 2: Like that's crazy, that's raw dogging beats in rhythm. That's right,
Speaker 2: that's I don't understand that.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, their heads are underwater, so they can't know.
Speaker 1: They're just like kind of tracking one another. The Yeah,
Speaker 1: I learned something about an athlete, and then if somebody
Speaker 1: walked into the room, I act like I've always known
Speaker 1: that thing about them. I'm like, oh, yeah, she's she's
Speaker 1: she's the best. She would actually win the four hundred
Speaker 1: hurdles if the other girls weren't even jumping over hurdles.
Speaker 2: That the term repage like I knew what it meant
Speaker 2: this whole Yeah, like a little the the isn't it?
Speaker 2: The the repasage rounds where they like it was like
Speaker 2: the rescue rounds for like the track runs qualifying and
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 1: I watched it usually without much audio.
Speaker 2: Oh, I had to listen to the commentary because some
Speaker 2: of it was so fun like watching Noah Eagle. Noah
Speaker 2: Eagle and Dwayne Wade comment on things was so fun.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, because.
Speaker 2: Dayne Wade was like, I'm a Hooper and no Eagles
Speaker 2: be really serious. They were great. I loved it. But
Speaker 2: it was like the right dynamic.
Speaker 1: Yeah. They the basketball was you know we I think
Speaker 1: the last time we recorded the Serbia game was happening.
Speaker 1: Both the Serbia game and the France game for the
Speaker 1: US basketball were like high points for sports fandom for me.
Speaker 2: Those were really fun games.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 2: It really felt like they, like the US was like, okay,
Speaker 2: let me just like relax a little bit, and then
Speaker 2: they had to like amp themselves up and be like
Speaker 2: we're not going to be disrespected. Like Seth Curry like
Speaker 2: turned it to turbo mode the last game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Miles said it as the Serbia game was going on,
Speaker 1: and then a lot of people have since come to this,
Speaker 1: but it really was like an Avengers film, Like it
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, they were losing and then just just
Speaker 1: in time and like on command, everybody's very special super
Speaker 1: power like came out and they were able to like
Speaker 1: do their thing. But yeah, Steph Curry, who had been
Speaker 1: not great in the Olympics up to those last two
Speaker 1: games was so so awesome. Was like really, you know,
Speaker 1: proved that he's the greatest shooter of all time, greatest
Speaker 1: shot maker of all time. The three he hit where
Speaker 1: he had like two people on him and he was
Speaker 1: like fading away and just like looked like he flung
Speaker 1: it up.
Speaker 2: Those those like pictures were insane. If you've seen stills
Speaker 2: from it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Webbing Ama like trying to block it. Yeah.
Speaker 2: And the French commentators on that were like, Steph Curry
Speaker 2: the devil, stuph Curry is done, He's hurting us, He's
Speaker 2: doing it. They calling him the devil and saying he was.
Speaker 1: Hurting the French. I do enjoy like that. That's something
Speaker 1: that I've I still remember when he went off like
Speaker 1: early in his career against Oklahoma, the Oklahoma City Thunder,
Speaker 1: and somebody was just like, Steph got a demon, that's all.
Speaker 1: That's the only And I've always remember that because that
Speaker 1: does It's one of those things like sometimes my kids
Speaker 1: will have a temper tantrum like this where I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: I understand exactly why people believed in Satan before, you know,
Speaker 1: like when when before like we knew science and psychology,
Speaker 1: and like I feel like Steph Curry is the other reason,
Speaker 1: like something yeah, like if awesome ande do that like
Speaker 1: two hundred years ago, you would definitely have to at least,
Speaker 1: you know, make sure that they could couldn't withstand like
Speaker 1: a boiling body of water or something.
Speaker 2: All those Salem witches were just like really good at track,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe they're just like damn, did you see the
Speaker 1: vert on her day?
Speaker 2: We're just synchronized swimmers and it.
Speaker 1: Took out some of her greatest athletes. And then of course,
Speaker 1: I mean there's also the really cute Chinese silver medalist
Speaker 1: and rhythmic gymnastics who saw the Italians doing the like
Speaker 1: bite the metal with the side of the mouth thing
Speaker 1: and then was like made an audible like oh and
Speaker 1: then bit like put it in her mouth like a
Speaker 1: cookie or like a pacifier or something that really cute.
Speaker 2: I love watching the metal ceremonies because it's afterwards and
Speaker 2: like everybody is like just so excited to be up there.
Speaker 2: And then like even watching the women's like weightlifting, it
Speaker 2: just looked so beautiful. I love watching women just like
Speaker 2: hug each other on the podium.
Speaker 1: I love the hugs. The hugs are humans crave hugs.
Speaker 1: We crave like contact with one another. Uh. And it's
Speaker 1: like you see it in athletics, Like you see it
Speaker 1: when like somebody's going to the free throw line in
Speaker 1: basketball and like they have to touch every other member
Speaker 1: of their team's hand before they shoot and after they shoot,
Speaker 1: and like they've done studies where that actually helps.
Speaker 2: Like it's like improv. It's like I got your back
Speaker 2: on improv where right before you go on stage you
Speaker 2: pat each other on the back and you're like, I
Speaker 2: got your back, I got your back, I got your back.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The only NBA teams the US men's basketball did
Speaker 1: zip zops app also, Yeah.
Speaker 2: You could tell they were really in tune. That's what
Speaker 2: one of their times that timeout was for. That would
Speaker 2: be such a fun uh like Patch Adams like like
Speaker 2: because I know Seth Crey has his show that's out,
Speaker 2: but it'd be so funny if that's like they were,
Speaker 2: there's a coach trying to get who was in improv,
Speaker 2: who's trying to get them? That's a team.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like a ten lasso with an improv coach
Speaker 1: coaching in the NBA.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's uh, the only two uh moments that I
Speaker 2: will say didn't happen is Jordan Chiles is still Lebronze medalist,
Speaker 2: and nobody dunked on Lebron and we can just move on,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, we can just keep.
Speaker 1: Going Lebron he was trying to take a charge. I
Speaker 1: feel like I know it over.
Speaker 2: It didn't happen.
Speaker 1: People like this is worse than nine to eleven. I know, it's.
Speaker 2: Dunk denialists.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was doing. He was so good that whole game.
Speaker 1: He's like Lebron has gone up a whole new level
Speaker 1: in my mind, Like I've always been a huge Lebron
Speaker 1: stand but like what he was doing. Some of the
Speaker 1: passes he was throwing throwing were so cool, and he
Speaker 1: did it all with like a gray, old old ass
Speaker 1: man beard. I know, I love.
Speaker 2: It's crazy that he's playing with his son. That's insane
Speaker 2: that like, that's how old he is, and he's been
Speaker 2: this good for this long.
Speaker 1: It's bonkers, all right. And then of course there was
Speaker 1: Rey gun Uh doctor Rachel Gunn I think is her name.
Speaker 1: She So I've heard it said a bunch of times
Speaker 1: that they should let an average person compete in every
Speaker 1: Olympic event for context, they finally did it by accident
Speaker 1: in breakdancing. It did not go the way I would
Speaker 1: have expected. The yeah, I don't know, hopefully you got
Speaker 1: to see this Australian breakdancer before they like pulled all
Speaker 1: the clips off social I think there's still some floating around.
Speaker 1: Mostly it is people taking a video of their TV
Speaker 1: and just laughing.
Speaker 2: She basically was just like there were serious breakdancers, and
Speaker 2: then she looked like she was just making fun of them.
Speaker 2: She looked like she was from Alabi's Most Wanted. Like
Speaker 2: it was this white, thirty six year old PhD woman
Speaker 2: who was I guess trying to prove a point, which
Speaker 2: is the whitest shit ever is to go into a
Speaker 2: space created by black culture and then act like you
Speaker 2: know more about it because you're being an academic about
Speaker 2: it and not appreciating the culture.
Speaker 1: It just it really seemed like someone was like making
Speaker 1: fun like my, you know uncle, who's like breakdancing that
Speaker 1: shouldn't be a sport, Like was watch breakdance and then
Speaker 1: was like, oh, yeah I can do that too, this
Speaker 1: is you or like the comparison I saw a lot
Speaker 1: of people make is to like a five year old
Speaker 1: immediately after watching an actual breakdancer, like yeah, be like,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, we'll check this out. Like that's kind of
Speaker 1: what it felt like.
Speaker 2: The crazy thing is she got through like all the
Speaker 2: trials and everything, and so it just like I don't
Speaker 2: understand like what she was trying to prove or what
Speaker 2: her message was. And the thing is like I don't
Speaker 2: want to give air to it, Like I don't want
Speaker 2: to understand it. I'm mad that she's famous. I'm mad
Speaker 2: that she let people are like she's like this is
Speaker 2: such a like a beautiful, like a fun moment, like
Speaker 2: it made it the Olympics accessible. No, it's like demeaning
Speaker 2: to break dancers. It's I think, to media to like
Speaker 2: black culture, Like I don't I'm I'm just like pissed
Speaker 2: that that spot was taken by her.
Speaker 1: Yeah. It it really reminded me of this Naked Gun
Speaker 1: umpire scene like where he like goes under cover as
Speaker 1: an umpire and like doesn't know the rules of baseball
Speaker 1: and it's just like kind of making it up as
Speaker 1: he goes along. Like yeah, I think roy Wood Junior
Speaker 1: made that comparison. The confidence, the utter ineptitude just to
Speaker 1: an amazing combination. It's probably bad for breakdancing. I think
Speaker 1: you're right, Like it was the fact that that was
Speaker 1: the thing that Kate people took away from break dancing
Speaker 1: rather than like the gold medal winner is a bummer.
Speaker 1: At the same time, it was incredibly entertaining. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. And and it looks like breakdancing is
Speaker 1: not going to be back in la unfortunately.
Speaker 2: So this white lady like took it away.
Speaker 1: So they had already made that decision at a time.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I blame ray Gun. Yeah she didn't even
Speaker 1: like she just wore the Australian like warm up that
Speaker 1: they like gave all the Olympic athletes. It was a
Speaker 1: it was a wild look.
Speaker 2: It felt like she stumbled into it for sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like it felt like someone woke her up that
Speaker 1: morning was like you have to break dance. What it's like, Yeah,
Speaker 1: here's a video of somebody else doing it. You need
Speaker 1: to be out there in fifteen minutes. Anyways, Uh, the
Speaker 1: NBC is still trying to make Jimmy Fallon happen. That
Speaker 1: was the other kind of bummer thing. But other than that,
Speaker 1: it's just so I don't know, did not need like
Speaker 1: reaction shots of Jimmy Fallon during like these super iconic
Speaker 1: basketball moments, like Steph Curry hit that shot, and then
Speaker 1: the NBC's like cutaway to Jimmy Fallon's reaction shot, like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, he's.
Speaker 2: Like doing like he's he's doing like a song with
Speaker 2: the roots on the side. He's like he's doing bits.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah. And then they had him like narrating
Speaker 1: the closing ceremonies and just kind of like fucking up
Speaker 1: the vibes. He asked Katie Ledecki if she was going
Speaker 1: to fly home or swim home, and she was like, sorry,
Speaker 1: I didn't hear that, and he was just like we
Speaker 1: just all we love you so much the respect that
Speaker 1: he bailed on the joke. Anyways, all right, let's take
Speaker 1: a quick break. We'll come back. We'll check in with
Speaker 1: the Trump campaign and other news stories.
Speaker 3: We'll be right back, and we're back and back back
Speaker 3: to real life.
Speaker 1: No more, no more burying ourselves in the Olympics.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: Time to so that there's still a presidential election coming up.
Speaker 1: Apparently a couple updates on that front. Trump's campaign was
Speaker 1: hacked by Iran and you hate.
Speaker 2: To do it, do they just hand over documents.
Speaker 1: Right, somebody just emailed them and asked for them. They're
Speaker 1: according to the Trump campaign, they were hacked by Iran
Speaker 1: and issued a statement. It sounded like so weirdly familiar.
Speaker 1: I can't I can't put my finger on why it
Speaker 1: sounds so familiar. But they were saying these documents were
Speaker 1: obtained illegally from foreign sources hostile to the United States,
Speaker 1: intended to interfere with the twenty twenty four election, and
Speaker 1: so chaos through our throughout our democratic process. You'd think
Speaker 1: they would have like done something to like put it
Speaker 1: in Trump's voice, so it wouldn't sound exactly like the
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton campaign when they were.
Speaker 2: Hacked by Russia, like so wild.
Speaker 1: It's like it's it's.
Speaker 2: Like when Milania stole Michelle Obama's.
Speaker 1: Speech, still my favorite speech, the best. She just like
Speaker 1: removed some words, but like it was no longer grammatical.
Speaker 2: I think politicians should be able to do covers. I
Speaker 2: think that's fair. Yeah, yeah, if we're still talking about
Speaker 2: the same issue, we should still be able to use
Speaker 2: the same speeches.
Speaker 1: The hackers apparently send a shitload of documents to Politico,
Speaker 1: and while Politico hasn't published anything. They did give us
Speaker 1: the most appetizing little morsel in a description of what
Speaker 1: was in the documents, they said, one is a quote
Speaker 1: research dossier the campaign apparently conducted on JD Vance.
Speaker 2: It's just a bunch of testimonies from couches.
Speaker 1: That's right, Like there's pizzas in there. What if they're like, look,
Speaker 1: we have nothing to base this on. It's he never
Speaker 1: wrote it, but the guy has the vibes of somebody
Speaker 1: who fus couches. We can't explain it, but just beware
Speaker 1: if one person suggests that, even remotely suggests that on
Speaker 1: social media, Uh, it's going to catch on. Like if
Speaker 1: their intelligence was that.
Speaker 2: Good, it's like the Batman dossier on the rest of
Speaker 2: the Justice League. But it's just like a fire all
Speaker 2: full of couch.
Speaker 1: Couch couch shit. Yeah, I don't know. Maybe it would
Speaker 1: be boring since they did end up choosing him, so
Speaker 1: apparently whatever they found was not so it was not
Speaker 1: enough to scare them off. The advance trant.
Speaker 2: That like, the only people that are competent maybe put
Speaker 2: together put it together. And then Trump didn't read it.
Speaker 2: He just was like, what does my son want me
Speaker 2: to do?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it also apparently has vetting of the VP candidates
Speaker 1: who didn't make it, like Marco Rubio. So uh, should
Speaker 1: be interesting if that ever drops. But just a quick
Speaker 1: vibes check for the race. It feels like, and again
Speaker 1: you do hate to see it, folks. Feels like Trump
Speaker 1: and his supporters are really struggling right now. We're seeing
Speaker 1: a lot of energy for Harris and Walls and a
Speaker 1: lot of responses for Trump and team that seem pretty
Speaker 1: out of line with what is actually happening. You know,
Speaker 1: their Harris. So apparently Harris had twelve thousand people turn
Speaker 1: out for her rallies and Philly in Wisconsin, fifteen thousand
Speaker 1: in Detroit. Vegas had twelve thousand people inside UNLV's arena
Speaker 1: and they had to like turn four thousand people away
Speaker 1: because they were getting heatstroked because it was one hundred
Speaker 1: and nine degrees outside.
Speaker 2: Some Waltz had to stop his speech in multiple cities
Speaker 2: and be like, someone, get that person water.
Speaker 1: Like a fucking beetle. Like it was like beatle Mania,
Speaker 1: Like people are fainting in the front row and he's
Speaker 1: having to like point them out. Yeah, but meanwhile Trump
Speaker 1: is like launching conspiracy theories about their crowd size, claiming
Speaker 1: like the images and report about Kamala having big crowds
Speaker 1: or like digital manipulations. He like posted a photograph of
Speaker 1: like this massive crowd outside of air Force too, like
Speaker 1: where you know, on the tarmac, and it does look
Speaker 1: altered like it just like the picture is like a
Speaker 1: little crisp. I don't know if like they you know,
Speaker 1: did some touch up work on it. But he was like,
Speaker 1: you know, just with it. He said, look, we caught
Speaker 1: it with a fake quote crowd. There was nobody there,
Speaker 1: and like all you would have to do is search
Speaker 1: on the internet for any want like a video of it,
Speaker 1: and you would have been able to find that this
Speaker 1: was in fact by photograph from fifteen thousand people showing
Speaker 1: up in Detroit for them.
Speaker 2: It also is like he's using the same arguments that
Speaker 2: they're using in order to try to boost the numbers
Speaker 2: around his crowds, which is he's saying like, oh, they
Speaker 2: turned them away. I don't want to turn them away,
Speaker 2: but they said they had to turn them away for
Speaker 2: his rallies, And it's like what are they can turn
Speaker 2: like four more people away that many people outside or
Speaker 2: like jd Vance had a rally but it was mostly
Speaker 2: like press people and it was just like because nobody
Speaker 2: wanted to be around them. So it's just like super awkward.
Speaker 2: But it's crazy how the ratings invigorate Trump, Like that's
Speaker 2: clearly his motivator for everything. That like spices up his attacks,
Speaker 2: Like yeah, he gets some like it really upsets him
Speaker 2: that she is having these this energy and this crowd
Speaker 2: and these donations and things, and he's still stuck on Biden.
Speaker 2: He's still posting about like Biden.
Speaker 1: Yeah, fan fishing is going to like take the nomination
Speaker 1: back at the DNC. He Yeah, he just can't. He
Speaker 1: can't see the appeal of Kamala Harris and his supporters,
Speaker 1: like his most ardent supporters can't see the appeal of
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris because they're racist, and so they can't deal
Speaker 1: with it. Like they're really having a hard time dealing
Speaker 1: like making sense of it. Like they see the massive crowd,
Speaker 1: they see people excited, and they're like those people can't exist.
Speaker 1: It does remind me of like how I think a
Speaker 1: lot of like live brained people greeted the rise of
Speaker 1: Trump in like twenty sixteen, where they were like there's
Speaker 1: no way that many people are into him because I
Speaker 1: find him abhorrent, you know, and because I thought racism
Speaker 1: was cured when we elected Obama, you know, so like
Speaker 1: they couldn't to deal with the crowd size because they
Speaker 1: just they were like, well, now he said something racist,
Speaker 1: so certainly this will be the end of his campaign.
Speaker 1: And it's like, no, no, the racism is the point,
Speaker 1: and that's why there's so many people there because America racist.
Speaker 2: Did you see that video where he called Kamala He's
Speaker 2: like in a golf cart and he called her a
Speaker 2: fucking bitch.
Speaker 1: No, do we have a video now? I know that there,
Speaker 1: it's been reported. So I want to talk about that
Speaker 1: New York Times article because that is a banger from
Speaker 1: Haberman and co. At the New York Times. They yeah,
Speaker 1: it just talked about like what they call the worst
Speaker 1: couple weeks, the worst few weeks of his campaign, and
Speaker 1: one of the one of the details was that he
Speaker 1: was but was heard calling her a bitch behind the scenes.
Speaker 1: But I did not know that. We had him on
Speaker 1: wax doing it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, my computer is frosen right now, so I can't
Speaker 2: navigate to it. But there is there is a video
Speaker 2: of him, and it's like clear that he didn't know
Speaker 2: he was being recorded, because it was kind of like
Speaker 2: at waste level and someone outside of a golf cart
Speaker 2: is recording him, and he's in it and he's talking
Speaker 2: about how great he did at the debate, and then
Speaker 2: he calls Kamala a fucking bitch wow, very casually, and
Speaker 2: it's just like sometimes, like, you know, he is a
Speaker 2: bigot and a fascist and all of these things. But
Speaker 2: then we kind of kind of remove him from like
Speaker 2: that personhood of like that person that you see in
Speaker 2: your daily life who that actually has these like really dismissive,
Speaker 2: dehumanizing feelings, and then you see a clip of him
Speaker 2: be so casually disgusting and you're just like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: this is like a real person and this embodies like
Speaker 2: real people that I have interacted with in my life,
Speaker 2: and it gives you like a visceral reaction, right like
Speaker 2: anger and fear and discussed with how this person actually
Speaker 2: views women, how they actually view black and brown people
Speaker 2: and immigrants at everything.
Speaker 1: You're just like, oh, yeah, yeah, there was just a
Speaker 1: poll that said that people actually trust her more on
Speaker 1: the economy than Trump. And I don't know the strength
Speaker 1: of the policizes we can, but the way it was
Speaker 1: agreed on the right was like, well, now we have
Speaker 1: proof that they're lying. And weirdly, the poll said that
Speaker 1: people trust Trump to make them richer, but trust Harris
Speaker 1: to run the US economy better. And the New York
Speaker 1: Post is like, well, well that doesn't make any sense
Speaker 1: at all, and like not not making room for the
Speaker 1: idea that people might recognize that just like tax breaks
Speaker 1: are actually really bad for the economy overall, like if
Speaker 1: there's no taxation and is just doing the worst thing
Speaker 1: that everybody kind of secretly selfishly wants but doesn't actually
Speaker 1: benefit like the overall running of the country. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know, or maybe the polls bullshit.
Speaker 2: I think the American people hold different contradictory opposing thoughts
Speaker 2: at the same time, a lot like how I think
Speaker 2: there was some pull on like how they like view
Speaker 2: or treat the border, like they want the border security,
Speaker 2: but simultaneously if you're like, hey, this immigrant came through
Speaker 2: for this reason, They're like, oh, yeah, I want them here.
Speaker 2: You know, Like the people have a hard time conceptualizing
Speaker 2: how policy affects them in a very real and day
Speaker 2: to day way, and so they can hold these opposing
Speaker 2: thoughts where they think, like the economy is this like
Speaker 2: big thing, but Trump's going to get me rich, you know.
Speaker 1: Right yeah yeah, and also they're incorrect about Trump getting
Speaker 1: you rich but yeah the day, yeah, like he's the
Speaker 1: rich money guy though, so he's going to make me rich.
Speaker 1: But uh anyways, uh yeah, I want to get to
Speaker 1: this New York Times article Haberman and co reporting on
Speaker 1: the Worst couple Weeks. It opens with him at a
Speaker 1: meeting with some of his wealthiest donors from this iteration
Speaker 1: of the Business Plot twenty twenty four, you know, because
Speaker 1: it is straight up like if he wins, like I know,
Speaker 1: like we're tired of being like this is the most
Speaker 1: important election, Like we're really fucked like he with what
Speaker 1: we've seen from the Supreme Court, like he's never going
Speaker 1: to like leave office unless he's dead. Like that's where really,
Speaker 1: that's it. So but yeah, so we've got like guys
Speaker 1: like Bill Ackman, Omid Malik, who names I didn't know
Speaker 1: before this article, but I do feel like we should
Speaker 1: name names because these people are fucking monsters. They're all
Speaker 1: like his key benefactors. And so they open this meeting.
Speaker 1: It's after Harris has joined and like kind of shot
Speaker 1: up in the polls, and they're like, obviously this has
Speaker 1: been going not great. How do we pivot? I'm assuming
Speaker 1: they said pivot, because like business guys love to talk
Speaker 1: about pivoting, and Trump's opener was, well, we got to
Speaker 1: stop the steal, which like that's not even this election.
Speaker 1: And then next he like bragged about how hard he
Speaker 1: nailed the National Association of Black Journalists panel, and they
Speaker 1: were like, what the fuck are you talking about? And
Speaker 1: then like and sort of less vibe, more terrifying news
Speaker 1: From this article, he also described the assassination attempts as
Speaker 1: potentially the Democrats trying to kill him.
Speaker 2: When it was a Republican and also we've all forgotten
Speaker 2: about that.
Speaker 1: It's crazy how quickly that just stopped being I remember
Speaker 1: like in the immediate aftermath, we were like, well, this
Speaker 1: changes everything. And then some people are like, or are
Speaker 1: we going to forget about this? Because the news cycle
Speaker 1: is so fucking crazy and just the turnover.
Speaker 2: Just the news cycle, it's him not being good at
Speaker 2: messaging or branding or like using that as an opportunity
Speaker 2: for his campaign to pivot from I'm a business guy,
Speaker 2: to pivot from all the negative.
Speaker 1: Thank you saying pivot because I need that.
Speaker 2: He wasn't synchronicity ing with the Democrats after the assassination attempt,
Speaker 2: so it's like, Okay, Trump's gonna trump, so we're just
Speaker 2: going to react to that. Yeah, yeah, a lot of
Speaker 2: what Democrats have been doing.
Speaker 1: So we're still waiting to see if he turns on JD.
Speaker 1: Vance But uh, you know, during during his mar A
Speaker 1: Lago Jazz sessh at the end of last week, he
Speaker 1: said JD's doing a great job. But according to this article,
Speaker 1: behind the scenes, when someone was like, they're calling us weird,
Speaker 1: he was like, uh, they're saying that about JD, not me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: fucking love. He's just so quick to throw people under
Speaker 1: the bus. But yeah, just generally it feels like he's
Speaker 1: in the position of wishing things were different. He wants
Speaker 1: it to be one way, but it's the other way.
Speaker 1: To quote Marlowe Stanfield, get in.
Speaker 2: Line, buddy. We're all we're all like that.
Speaker 1: I know, but he's like, really, he's usually not this transparently,
Speaker 1: Like where where that the post where he like wrote
Speaker 1: the fan fiction about Biden. He's like, Biden is so mad,
Speaker 1: he must be and he's gonna like come back and
Speaker 1: take the nomination back, and then he's gonna challenge me
Speaker 1: to a debate, but the I'm gonna beat him up
Speaker 1: in front of all everybody, and it's gonna be tough
Speaker 1: and everyone's gonna love me. Like it just felt so
Speaker 1: weird and desperate, along with the like claiming that her
Speaker 1: crowds are photo shopped and they're not, and then like
Speaker 1: the only rally that he's held is in Bozeman, Montana,
Speaker 1: and he played my Heart Will go On at the
Speaker 1: Montana rally.
Speaker 2: This was and then Celindion's people had to be like,
Speaker 2: we did not give him approval for that, stop immediately,
Speaker 2: and also why that saw.
Speaker 1: Why a Titanic song as your campaign is famously floundering,
Speaker 1: like like.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna hold onto the door and I'm shoving JD
Speaker 2: under the water.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then he also like canceled ABC debate and
Speaker 1: then reversed when people made fun of him for being scared.
Speaker 1: He just feels scared and desperate and like he's like
Speaker 1: just once wants everybody to look at him and wants
Speaker 1: to change how this all is going. And I'm sure
Speaker 1: you know right now the media is like at a
Speaker 1: full one eighty from the stories they were writing about
Speaker 1: a month ago. And there are plenty of Trump advisors
Speaker 1: behind the scenes who are like, this is exactly what
Speaker 1: we predicted the day she replaced Biden. It will last
Speaker 1: through the DNC and then the energy will be over
Speaker 1: and maybe they're right, Like the Kamala thing does feel
Speaker 1: like there's a lot of energy right now, just based
Speaker 1: on the fact that people are so happy that Biden
Speaker 1: dropped out, you know, and like people like the idea
Speaker 1: of her. But I don't know, what.
Speaker 2: What do you think it's gonna I think it's gonna
Speaker 2: last because I think like white women in this country
Speaker 2: have a lot of buying power. I think that's part
Speaker 2: of the reason that like Taylor Swift is one of
Speaker 2: the largest artists of our time, and I feel like
Speaker 2: they have been really activated in a way where they
Speaker 2: can advocate for women and women of color, like they
Speaker 2: feel like they can take that on their mantle, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean. And so and you know, Brian
Speaker 2: is saying, oh, she's a cop though, but like she
Speaker 2: white women love that women love a manager or a cop,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 1: I see every eighties movie with Bruce Willis or Mel Gibson.
Speaker 1: White women love a cop.
Speaker 2: White women love a cop, and they love someone who's
Speaker 2: gonna girl boss like she did when she shut down
Speaker 2: the Gaza protesters in Michigan and was like I'm speaking now.
Speaker 2: So they it's very it's very bought into by a
Speaker 2: certain demographic that I think will have the energy to
Speaker 2: carry it through the election.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, we will see. She hasn't really been with
Speaker 1: the media. So that's like the there's some Tim Wall's
Speaker 1: stuff about his military record that the Republicans are anytime
Speaker 1: a Democrat like has a military record, the Democrat, the
Speaker 1: Republicans are going to attack the shit out of it,
Speaker 1: Like John Kerry was like certified war hero, and they
Speaker 1: somehow turned that into a liability. Tim Walls just served
Speaker 1: in the military, and they're going hard after him. They
Speaker 1: got somebody who had served with him to come out
Speaker 1: and be like, he's totally fabricated everything. They Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean it's like I'm the Daily Beast, but I haven't
Speaker 1: seen it pick up a ton of traction. But I
Speaker 1: do think that is going to be happening until the
Speaker 1: day after the election, Like they're going to be going
Speaker 1: hard off that just because they always always do because
Speaker 1: they feel like there's just something about democrats at their
Speaker 1: core that like people don't trust on military stuff, so
Speaker 1: they just like and you can always find the military
Speaker 1: is so big, you can always find somebody who's going
Speaker 1: to say somebody's like full of shit, or that they
Speaker 1: were lying about their war record, and the military is
Speaker 1: secretive enough that you can't like point to documents to
Speaker 1: like backup shit.
Speaker 2: So I think they're also going to do that about anything, right, Like,
Speaker 2: I think they're going to be like football's gay now,
Speaker 2: you know, because he was a coach.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: I think they're just gonna be like, we hate sports,
Speaker 2: we hate Yeah, they're just going to be willing to
Speaker 2: give up whatever for this cult.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The So, the other mainstream narrative that's kicking up
Speaker 1: about Kamala Harris is not the Gaza stuff really. I
Speaker 1: mean there there's some references to it, but it's not
Speaker 1: the main story. But the thing that is kicking up
Speaker 1: is that she has not been very like, she hasn't
Speaker 1: had any interviews, she hasn't done at press conference, and
Speaker 1: I don't know, it feels like she's going to have
Speaker 1: to start doing something.
Speaker 2: But then on the rally, trail though, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've been just doing appearances and ads that have
Speaker 1: been I also feel like this is just the way
Speaker 1: things are now. Like Trump does interviews with only people
Speaker 1: who are going to glaze him, you know, like they're
Speaker 1: just like he doesn't do like hard interviews except for
Speaker 1: you know occasionally like that the panel. But she's like,
Speaker 1: I feel like there's also you know, people are terrified
Speaker 1: of a second Trump administration who are supporting her and
Speaker 1: probably are just like or don't do interviews, like you know,
Speaker 1: we don't want you to fuck up, so like don't
Speaker 1: so just like staying your lane and like let's keep
Speaker 1: building up the good vibes. And so she I think
Speaker 1: she's like, yeah, we'll probably put together an interview at
Speaker 1: some point, but by the end of the month. But yeah, she.
Speaker 2: Probably wants to have more control over it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally. And so like we are in a new era.
Speaker 1: Like there's an AP article about it where they're like,
Speaker 1: you know, the like Biden didn't do many press availabilities Obama.
Speaker 1: Like I remember during Obama's administration, they like the media
Speaker 1: was like it's crazy how little like access we get here.
Speaker 1: And that's because we live in a new era, like
Speaker 1: social media, like they the politicians stopped really needing the
Speaker 1: mainstream media, Like they used to have to like trade
Speaker 1: access for access for favorable coverage, and it was like
Speaker 1: a whole like game. And now they're like nobody gives
Speaker 1: a fuck what you think, Like you're not you're not
Speaker 1: Obama pro.
Speaker 2: Creator albums and musicians out on his own. He doesn't
Speaker 2: need to channel that through a sixty minutes interview.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they don't have to like do favors of
Speaker 1: granting the interview in exchange for like positive coverage anymore
Speaker 1: because no media, mainstream media figures as powerful as they
Speaker 1: used to be. But all that said, I don't think
Speaker 1: I don't think Kamalak can like coast through November without
Speaker 1: any like media availabilities. So but I think she'll she'll
Speaker 1: be fine. She always seems like she's doing she she
Speaker 1: seems like she's like really stepped up, like since Biden
Speaker 1: fucked that debate so badly, Like she all of her
Speaker 1: appearances have been like she's been really locked in. She's
Speaker 1: been like giving remarkably straight answers, which has in the
Speaker 1: past been a difficulty. I think she's I think been
Speaker 1: really good in like media availabilities. She hasn't had many,
Speaker 1: She hasn't had any since she took over. But I
Speaker 1: think like some switches flipped and she's like ready for
Speaker 1: all this shit. So I'm not that worried about it,
Speaker 1: but we shall see.
Speaker 2: I would love I would love some answers on Gaza.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, all I would say, assuming that's one of
Speaker 1: the reasons that she hasn't given an interview. All right,
Speaker 1: Paula v thank you so much for joining today. Where
