What is 345 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: something that you think is overrated? 346 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 3: All right, this is going to be really controversial. And 347 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 3: I know that everything's been really calm and hunky dory recently, 348 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 3: but I'm going to stir the pot the Arc Light. 349 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say that the Arc Light is overrated. I'm 350 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 3: tired of hearing about it. It's over Did you. 351 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 2: Not get our coming back? 352 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 1: Did you get the email where we said that you 353 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: couldn't talk about we just stopped just to stop the 354 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 1: recording stuff there. We can't do this now, Like, what 355 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: are you trying to get our show taken off the air? 356 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 3: So funny, it's so funny just because I like, I 357 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 3: love the Arc Light because of the innovation of reserving 358 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 3: your seats, but then once that became like another that 359 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 3: became pretty much the normal. Like the way people talk 360 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 3: about the Arc Light is like their dad went out 361 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 3: for a pack of smokes and never came back. Like 362 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 3: it's just like it's so so too much. And also 363 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 3: it's just like I think it's just it's just one 364 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 3: of those things where absence makes the heart grow fonder, 365 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 3: because it's like when you're really in that that specific 366 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 3: part of Hollywood too, it's just like we're we're yea days. 367 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 2: I mean, we're where where is an arc Light? Anymore. 368 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: Oh, they're gone, They're gone, They're out of business. 369 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is say, Yeah, I feel like, isn't there 370 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 2: there's not even one left somewhere because I know that 371 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,439 Speaker 2: the Sherman Oaks one's gone. Obviously, Hollywood's gone. 372 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: Now I think the whole company went out of business 373 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: during the pandemic. 374 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 3: And it's some weird thing too, like. 375 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 2: An American movie theater chain. 376 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, like why did they like is it? It's like 377 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 3: is it whoever owns the property? Is it like a 378 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 3: least thing or what? 379 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: But uh, yeah, well now you're going to get me 380 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: in trouble because now this is where I start talking 381 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: about the plandemic. 382 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, yeah, why how come we don't have the 383 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 2: Cineramlen Dome anymore? Huh? That's right where the real truths 384 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:09,959 Speaker 2: are being transmitted to us. 385 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: It is funny because I totally agree that it's like 386 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: we're remembering it here, like we're remembering a version of 387 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: it at a time when it was like doing some 388 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: innovative things that nobody else was doing. And now all 389 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: those things have been like co opted by AMC, and 390 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: like that's that does suck. It sucks that we're like 391 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 1: AMC did it. You can get a fuck off, but 392 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:32,239 Speaker 1: it is. 393 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just don't get what I like. My thing is, 394 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 3: I'm just like, why didn't Why didn't any like really 395 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:42,239 Speaker 3: rich person just step in and like do like kind 396 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 3: of the same way Quentin Tarantino like, yeah it did 397 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 3: with like the vista or whatever. And also it's like 398 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 3: but but but my the and the reason why I 399 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 3: brought up is because just I still hear people talking 400 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 3: about it. I'm still always hearing people talk about it. 401 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 3: So I'm just like, maybe it's maybe it's like true love. 402 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 3: Maybe it's like when we finally all call actively like 403 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 3: let it go, then will come. 404 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. 405 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. Okay. I like that. 406 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 1: I like that theory that like, once you work on yourself. 407 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: So this is it's not saying that the arc Light 408 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: is not a worthy, you know, subject of our adoration. 409 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: It's just that we need to work on ourselves. 410 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. 411 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, look in the mirror. Yeah, let's take a quick break. 412 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're back. 413 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 2: We're back. Uh. 414 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 1: So we're in the aftermath. You know, this is coming 415 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,679 Speaker 1: out a day and a half after you know, Charlie 416 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 1: Kirk was murdered. We're recording it less than twenty four 417 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: hours after h Donald Trump is already like waged war 418 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: on anybody who is critical of right of any in 419 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 1: his ideology. 420 00:21:57,880 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 2: Ye. 421 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 1: So yeah, just we just wanted to compare how this 422 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: assassination the whole, Like this is something we talked about 423 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: on Yesterdays trending, but like a really like very horrifying, 424 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: Like I don't think like the combination of everybody seeing it, 425 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: like the number of places that it was being shown 426 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: to people, like including the New York Times, the fact 427 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: that it's like a person that I guess he's not 428 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 1: like a household name, but he's like well like people 429 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 1: knew who he was, or at least a lot of 430 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,399 Speaker 1: people had seen him. And then just like how fucking 431 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: gory and awful it was. It was like a really 432 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: traumatic thing. And you know, I think it's a potent 433 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: material that the Right is working with, and I think 434 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 1: they know that and are like digging in as much 435 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 1: as possible. 436 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 2: Oh completely, Yeah. 437 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: But it's not just like the Right. It does feel 438 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: like the New York Yankees held a moment of silence 439 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: for Charlie Kirk, which. 440 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 3: He was a media guy. Like that's the other thing 441 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 3: he was just like a media guy. 442 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: Right, yeah, and like one that had some pretty horrific 443 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: white supremacist views. So like the fact that like a 444 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 1: mainstream institution like the New York Yankees is holding a 445 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 1: moment of silence when again, like comparing this to Representative 446 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 1: Melissa Hortman, who was a politician in Minnesota who was assassinated. 447 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: She and her husband and their dog were assassinated in 448 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 1: their home by a Trump supporter earlier this year, and 449 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: the Yankees did not hold a moment of silence for them. 450 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:46,719 Speaker 1: The Yankees statement that they issued on social media couldn't 451 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,880 Speaker 1: be bothered to mention the school shooting that happened in Colorado, 452 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,679 Speaker 1: like right at the same time. And yeah, it's just 453 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: it is a fallacy, logical fallacy that the right in 454 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 1: the United States really likes to play on, which is 455 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 1: just selection bias, and you know, Charley showing and like 456 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: focusing on crimes and really visceral things that are going 457 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: to support their political point of view, and you know, 458 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: they just pick and choose which victims of political violence 459 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 1: they recognize. 460 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,120 Speaker 3: One thing real quick that I just sort of was thinking, 461 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 3: is that step with the Yankees thing. It's like that 462 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 3: came from the owner, like right, like that, like they. 463 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 2: Are a major League Baseball thing. Someone at the Yankees like, 464 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 2: we got to do this. 465 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:40,159 Speaker 3: That's a guy that probably like at some function or whatever, 466 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 3: met Charlie Kirk, and I was like, he's a nice guy, 467 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,680 Speaker 3: he's a family man. We have to do this. I 468 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,439 Speaker 3: just kind of like because it is weird. It's like, 469 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 3: why would a baseball team comment on this in general? 470 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 2: Like what I think it indicates a guy And I 471 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 2: was saying this on the trending episode yesterday, is just 472 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 2: how much like the now default sort of perspective people 473 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,880 Speaker 2: have is that of a conservative or through conservative. 474 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 1: Media institutionally that is certainly the case. Yeah, that's that's 475 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: just where that's the default now. And I think you know, 476 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 1: like even what the Yankees posted it said quote before 477 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: tonight's game, we had a moment of silence and more 478 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 1: of Charlie Kirk. Kirk founded the youth activist group Turning 479 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 1: Point USA and become a fixture on college campuses. Charlie Kirk, 480 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: a husband and father of two thirty one years old. 481 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 1: You're like leaving out all of the details that as 482 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: the white supremacist group. Yeah, and what and exactly like that. 483 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:38,400 Speaker 2: Rhetorically, they're fanning the flames of the of this completely 484 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,880 Speaker 2: out of control fucking era we're in, especially with right 485 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,959 Speaker 2: right wing extremism and the normalization of like white like 486 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 2: white nationalism. But again, I think that's because that's that's 487 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:52,400 Speaker 2: currently the default of American culture. Culture is to be like, well, 488 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 2: we don't say things like that. We just look past that, 489 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 2: and we're just going to say that this is a 490 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 2: person and that's what it is. And yeah, I think 491 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 2: that's really The thing that was really that struck me 492 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 2: was to see the number of like pieces that were 493 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 2: written that were like leaving out all like just completely 494 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 2: obfuscating like what his legacy is in terms of a 495 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 2: media personality or if you want to, yeah, that's lessily ephimistic, right. 496 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,679 Speaker 3: Or left or whatever. I mean, especially after something like 497 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 3: especially incredibly, I mean I saw the video gruesome, like 498 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 3: very real, very real, very traumatic. There is just such 499 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 3: a strong inclination to live in the fantasy world and 500 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 3: to not deal with the reality of what is actually 501 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,679 Speaker 3: going on. So it's like this is a like opportunity 502 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 3: for a lot of people to harken back to like 503 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 3: a time that people are talking about free speech and 504 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 3: stuff like that in this and it's like literally what 505 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 3: a month and a half ago, cops are like busting 506 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 3: heads on college campuses. Is because students deign to say 507 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,120 Speaker 3: we shouldn't give money to Israel, Like you know, it's 508 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 3: just like the totally totally it's just an opportunity. And 509 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:13,239 Speaker 3: as we're seeing, you know, I'm sure we'll dig into this, 510 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 3: but like I just the thing that really got under 511 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 3: my skin was Nancy Mace just like reacting so and yes, 512 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 3: I understand it's raw, and I'm not denying anyone of 513 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 3: their emotional response to what happened and what they're seeing, 514 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 3: especially if they knew this guy. But they're immediately laying 515 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 3: it at They're literally saying, this is the Democrat's fault. Yeah, 516 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 3: they don't. They don't know who it is. I think 517 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 3: they've I think they've released a picture of the personnel, 518 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 3: but they have no lead, they have no idea who 519 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 3: it is or why they did it. And they're there. 520 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 3: I'm like, Oh, this is what they want. They want 521 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 3: this moment and they want to foment it, and they 522 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 3: want it's probably easier for them if the Americans just 523 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,959 Speaker 3: start attacking each other than if they have to do 524 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 3: any crowd control stuff or anything like that. 525 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I think this is an excuse to do 526 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: the crowd control stuff that they want to do, which 527 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: will allow them to not have. 528 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. 529 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, But just to reiterate this comparison that I think 530 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people are making. A US lawmaker, you know, 531 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 1: Melissa Hortman, a politician, was assassinated three months ago flags 532 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: were not flown at half masted across the country. Trump 533 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: has ordered that all flags across the country be flown 534 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: at half masted until fourteenth. Yeah, and his social media 535 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: response to the Hortman assassination back in June didn't even 536 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: mention her name, of course, didn't take any responsibility with 537 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: you know, the person who committed that murder, being a 538 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: Trump supporter, refused to give Tim Walls a phone call 539 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 1: and skipped her funeral and went golfing with Lindsay Graham 540 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: in Stedge. So it it is just like you know, 541 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: the most it's blatantly politicized. Anything he's saying about like 542 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 1: political violence being out of hand is only being observed 543 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: about one type of political violence. 544 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I'm also just it's again the amount 545 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 2: of attention being paid to this by people who are 546 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 2: like diametrically opposed on the political spectrum. To Kirk, it's 547 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 2: like very odd to me. I'm like, I'm like, I 548 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 2: don't know, maybe you just give it the same amount 549 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 2: of attention that the Republicans give to a slain Democratic lawmaker. 550 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 2: Right there is this sort of like having to prove 551 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 2: that they're like there's like a moral high ground. But 552 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 2: I mean, like, you know, say whatever you need to say. 553 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 2: But to again, like to see people like write these 554 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 2: pieces in the New York Times were like I had 555 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 2: a lot in common with him, like you did in 556 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 2: what way? And then also be like he was a 557 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 2: free speech advocate, Like can you define free speech advocate? 558 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 2: Like does that mean they fight for everyone's right to 559 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 2: free speech? 560 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 3: Or it was such a big it was such a 561 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 3: big for part of the abundance agenda, right. 562 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 2: Right, Like what is going on? But again, I think 563 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 2: that's what's I think that's what's really surreal again is 564 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 2: to see how the culture is completely reset and be like, well, 565 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 2: this is the default way to speak about this. Don't 566 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 2: mention anything that like try and absolve this person of 567 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 2: everything they've said and every like horrible thing they've said 568 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 2: about non cishit white people. 569 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 3: Well, and that's also where we see the like yeah, 570 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 3: journal journals and political pundits and other people with podcasts 571 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 3: are going to take that tack because in this moment, 572 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 3: like podcaster is like the ultimate like thing. It's not 573 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 3: it's not the political thing right now. It's like it's 574 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 3: the fact that this could happen to someone that isn't political, 575 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 3: isn't intellected, isn't a public official, but you know, has 576 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 3: the ears of all these many people, is a huge platform. 577 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 3: It's just it's it's just a it's a very hard 578 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 3: realization of how muddied everything has become and how obviously 579 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 3: there's something that we already knew but we're just seeing 580 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 3: it in real time. Just how the institutions are basically worthless. 581 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 3: I mean literally, like the FBI can't catch the guy 582 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 3: because there's this fuck an idiot that's in charge of 583 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 3: it right now, and like yeah, I mean just that. 584 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 1: Was like live tweeting the thing was like we got someone. Okay, 585 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 1: it wasn't him, we got some It wasn't like what 586 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: the fuck. 587 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,479 Speaker 2: Man, It's like, why are you playing the crab? Rave Music. 588 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 2: After that we got it and we got him. Actually 589 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 2: we don't, we don't. 590 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: I mean, just another like kind of institutional thing, is 591 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 1: that South Park episode was taken down really in the aftermath? Yeah, 592 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 1: well it was taken off of Comedy Central. I think 593 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 1: it's still available on Paramount Plus. 594 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 3: But what was there one about this? 595 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 1: Wait or Charlie Cartman played a Charlie Kirk type character 596 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: with Charlie Kirk hare Oh shit, Yeah, I mean it 597 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: was a thing that, like, you know, Charlie Kirk said 598 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: he thought was hilarious. Yeah, I usually think this is hilarious. 599 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 1: But the way that people on the right responded to 600 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 1: that was somebody said on X they mocked him on TV, 601 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: then they killed him in real life, comedy has consequences. 602 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: A turning point, USA staffer posted on telegram. 603 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 2: The thing is like to get browbeaten like over this 604 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 2: when this it just obviously you have the intentionally hypocritical 605 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 2: people on the right who are like, right, please tell 606 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 2: me about jokes again and what leads to real life 607 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 2: outcomes and what doesn't.

Probably. 706 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: I just think about the Oklahoma City bombing and like 707 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 1: the fact that that was like a right wing terrorist 708 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 1: and like right never takes like so many children, like 709 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 1: they blew up like a fucking preschool, and that's not 710 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,759 Speaker 1: like when you think about that event, it's not like 711 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,800 Speaker 1: and that was when we realized right wing terrorism was 712 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 1: a problem, and like it was just you know, a 713 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 1: detail of that not even I mean, I mean, I 714 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,919 Speaker 1: that was ninety four, right, yeah, And I just remember 715 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 1: I was ten years old and not that I was 716 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,839 Speaker 1: like an I watched the news because I was you know, 717 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 1: like on TV, and I just would watch TV. But 718 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 1: I remember like all of that was flattened into and 719 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 1: then this guy Timothy McVeigh did it lone wolf there pot, yeah, 720 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 1: boom and that's it.

We'll come back 724 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: and talk about why this is probably one of our 725 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: last episodes. 726 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 2: We'll be right back and we're back. I mean, there's 727 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,320 Speaker 2: so many reasons this might be one of our last. Gentlemen, 728 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 2: it's been a privilege and an honor podcasting with you 729 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:34,440 Speaker 2: this evening. Yeah, now get out our violins. 730 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 6: Yeah, and just play like shit because I don't know 731 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 6: how to play the violin. That would be amazing if 732 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 6: like one of the people was just like, sorry, i'm 733 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 6: freaking out a little bit. 734 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 2: Sorry. Also I'm not very good. Do you know this? 735 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 2: The fucking ship is really listing?

But yeah, 742 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 2: I only say that and maybe flippantly, maybe sincerely, because ai, 743 00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 2: I mean, it sounds like they're gearing up to take 744 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 2: over the podcasting world because the Hollywood Reporter recently had 745 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 2: a piece where they spoke with the people behind Inception 746 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:26,960 Speaker 2: AI and they make just a fuck ton of AI podcasts. 747 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 2: I'll get to the numbers in a second. And they 748 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:31,879 Speaker 2: try to frame this article like in the beginning, like, God, 749 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 2: aren't people aren't like networks tired of paying like humans 750 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 2: to talk or like paying celebrities like these crazy deals. 751 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,879 Speaker 2: I do get what's the most appointing?

This year is so random. But anyway, 754 00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 2: the CEO of this AI company is a former exec 755 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 2: from Wondery, another podcast network, and the Jack alluded to 756 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,600 Speaker 2: her like Facebook post that she put it out to 757 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 2: like announce this thing.

Goes on 775 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,720 Speaker 2: and as Jack said, we believe that in the near future, 776 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 2: half of the people on the planet will be AI. 777 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 2: That's when my eyes rolled into the back of my 778 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,879 Speaker 2: head and I go, we're cooked that you if their 779 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 2: people sip in the AI kool aid? This hard, I mean, 780 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,319 Speaker 2: fucking yikes. She goes on to say, we're bringing these 781 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 2: people to life, and we're bringing the next generation content 782 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 2: business model, all powered by AI. In the process, we 783 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,320 Speaker 2: built what we believe to be the first AI talent 784 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 2: management agency with an extensive roster of fake ass people 785 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:33,239 Speaker 2: we created with algorithms. 786 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,759 Speaker 3: And that's that's been a thing already too. 787 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, we've had these voices these voice models being 788 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 2: created and things like that. But now they're really trying 789 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,879 Speaker 2: to like brand each one and be like and they 790 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 2: do all kinds of stuff. So their whole model is 791 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,840 Speaker 2: essentially to flood the zone with shit podcasts. But because 792 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 2: their overhead is so low, they can make a profit 793 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 2: on a laughably small number of listens. This is from 794 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 2: the High Report quote. The company is able to produce 795 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 2: each episode for one dollar or less, depending on length 796 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 2: and complexity, and attached programmatic advertising to it. This generally 797 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 2: means that if about twenty people listen to that episode, 798 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:11,880 Speaker 2: the company made a profit on that episode without factoring 799 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 2: in overhead inception. Point Air has already made more than 800 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:20,359 Speaker 2: five thousand shows across its network and produces more than 801 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:22,719 Speaker 2: three thousand episodes a week. 802 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: Wow, and yeas been up for like a couple of years, 803 00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 1: which does again beg the question of joining as a 804 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 1: co founder two years in. 805 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 2: It's good negotiating tactic. Really, I'm going to see. 806 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 1: This being just like like a nonstarter because I do 807 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,839 Speaker 1: think that the thing people look for from podcasts is humanity. 808 00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,680 Speaker 1: It's like a thing that like they they're not just 809 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 1: necessarily looking for like some quick way to get a voice, 810 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 1: facts shoveled into their brain. I think a lot of 811 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 1: the time you could read an article if you wanted that, 812 00:43:57,480 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 1: or like have an article read to you. 813 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 2: But I could also. 814 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 1: See this kind of ruining things because they're going to 815 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 1: be flooding the zone with so much shit. 816 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 3: That's the part. That's the part right there, that's the 817 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 3: Amazon thing. 818 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 1: Yeah right, there's going to be so many bad podcasts 819 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 1: indistinguishable from our bad podcast but completely you know, flooding everything. 820 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,799 Speaker 1: There will be like five different podcasts. The good news is, like, 821 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 1: this is not how people like. People don't find podcasts 822 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 1: by being like, all right, I'm going to go to 823 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:35,839 Speaker 1: uh ai and search for a topic that I think 824 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: I want to know about, and then you know, people 825 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 1: find out about podcasts and then become followers. 826 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 2: Some do, apparent according to them, apparently because their whole 827 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,279 Speaker 2: thing set up is cool. Podcast topics are selected with 828 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 2: the help of a based on Google and social media trends, 829 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 2: and then the team may launch five different versions of 830 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:57,720 Speaker 2: the show with different titles to see what performs the best. 831 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 2: The podcasts are often titled for simple SEO search terms, 832 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:06,799 Speaker 2: such as Wales Wales, Yeah, it's I was.

You got a sense that at 1039 00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:29,919 Speaker 1: least a large part of them, maybe there were two 1040 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 1: wolves inside of them, and one was rooting for her, 1041 00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:36,440 Speaker 1: but another was definitely hoping to see her fail and 1042 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 1: be vindicated for thinking that they had a better shot 1043 00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:40,239 Speaker 1: than her. 1044 00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:43,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, there's another thing that she said to quote, 1045 00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:46,600 Speaker 2: it's Joe and Jill's decision. We all said that like 1046 00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:49,920 Speaker 2: a mantra, as if we'd all been hypnotized. The stakes 1047 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:51,960 Speaker 2: were simply too high. This wasn't a choice that should 1048 00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 2: have should have been left to an individual's ego and 1049 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:58,000 Speaker 2: individual's ambition. It should have been more than a personal decision. Yeah, okay, 1050 00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:00,680 Speaker 2: I don't know. I guess like there's really nothing in 1051 00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:03,719 Speaker 2: here that isn't that's like shocking to me. I'm like, yeah, 1052 00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:06,480 Speaker 2: of course they hung you out to dry like that. 1053 00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:08,839 Speaker 2: I mean, I saw that this part, which I think 1054 00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:11,080 Speaker 2: we knew already worse. I often learned that the president's 1055 00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 2: staff was adding fuel to negative narratives that sprang up 1056 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:15,920 Speaker 2: around me. One narrative that took a stubborn hold was 1057 00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:19,840 Speaker 2: that I had a chaotic office and unusually high staff 1058 00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 2: turnover during my first year as vice president. I do 1059 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 2: remember that coming at a pretty critical point. 1060 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:28,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, in the and like that wasn't coming Like they 1061 00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't have posted that if that was coming from like 1062 00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:34,080 Speaker 1: jd Vance, you know what I mean, Like that was 1063 00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:36,760 Speaker 1: coming from someone inside administration. 1064 00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:40,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's fucked. 1065 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 3: Up a lot of the two. It's like the Biden 1066 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:48,520 Speaker 3: cognitive whatever cover up this about how his team was 1067 00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:50,880 Speaker 3: mean to her. All of it just reads is like 1068 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 3: the Democratic Party has no idea what the fuck it's doing. 1069 00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:59,560 Speaker 3: And like if if if this is what like and 1070 00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 3: I don't know, I I to me, she feels done, 1071 00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:06,520 Speaker 3: Like I feel like I feel like, guys, like a populace, 1072 00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 3: we're done with her. She also, I think, feels done 1073 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:12,080 Speaker 3: like I don't know if she would run again, but 1074 00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 3: if she, if she does, you know maybe, but like 1075 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 3: I'm just like, if this is what we're still talking about, 1076 00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:23,760 Speaker 3: it's like we're fuckedating. 1077 00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:27,080 Speaker 2: Yeah the obvious, like why did we lose? Like, guys, 1078 00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:29,680 Speaker 2: is it really that much of a mystery to you? 1079 00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:30,080 Speaker 3: Right? 1080 00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:32,520 Speaker 1: I think that's the only reason this story is of 1081 00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:36,000 Speaker 1: value is just to further drive nails into the coffin 1082 00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:38,800 Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party. It's just like, guys, look how 1083 00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:42,360 Speaker 1: bad it was behind the scenes, Like we all thought 1084 00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:45,160 Speaker 1: that they had a chance, because we were hoping they 1085 00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 1: had a chance. Behind the scenes, they were blowing it. 1086 00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 2: You know, it's a capitalist clown show, and they don't know, 1087 00:58:53,600 --> 00:58:57,920 Speaker 2: they don't realize how their devotion to capitalism and the 1088 00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 2: status quo was really its whole undoing. And now it's 1089 00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 2: now that I now seeing the quotes from the Biden 1090 00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:08,240 Speaker 2: administration people that are like giving quotes after in the 1091 00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:10,480 Speaker 2: aftermath of this excerpt, I'm like, now I believe everything 1092 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:14,280 Speaker 2: she says. Like one person said, quote Vice President Harris 1093 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 2: was simply not good at the job. She had basically 1094 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:20,400 Speaker 2: zero substantive role in any of the administration's key work streams, 1095 00:59:20,400 --> 00:59:23,040 Speaker 2: and instead would just dive bomb in for stilted photo 1096 00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:27,640 Speaker 2: ops that expressed how out of depth she. Wow, holy shit, dude. 1097 00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:30,040 Speaker 1: That's what they're saying now. The day after this, yeah 1098 00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:34,480 Speaker 1: came out, President Biden was not there were mean. Actually 1099 00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:39,120 Speaker 1: you're fucking stupid. Yeah, you're actually fucking dumb what we're 1100 00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:41,680 Speaker 1: saying at all. Yeah, it's it's just being mean. 1101 00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:44,720 Speaker 2: Nobody likes you, but No one's going to tell you 1102 00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:46,920 Speaker 2: that to your face, but nobody actually likes you. They 1103 00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:49,080 Speaker 2: going to say, quote, President Biden was not the reason 1104 00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 2: she struggled in officer tanked her twenty nineteen presidential campaign 1105 00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:54,920 Speaker 2: or lost the twenty twenty four campaign for that matter. 1106 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:58,680 Speaker 2: The independent variable there is the Vice president, not Biden 1107 00:59:58,800 --> 00:59:59,440 Speaker 2: or his aides. 1108 00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:03,840 Speaker 1: Damn, you're like, that's like the best I've seen them 1109 01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 1: at being like critical and clap the backbone. They can't. 1110 01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:09,400 Speaker 1: They couldn't do that against Trump. 1111 01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:13,600 Speaker 2: They couldn't. Yeah, it's just but there's other quotes too 1112 01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:17,000 Speaker 2: that back what she says. Another aide or staffer who 1113 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:19,880 Speaker 2: spoke in this one article, I think, let me just 1114 01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:23,720 Speaker 2: think before was it in the New Republic said that quote. 1115 01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 2: We all know that the Biden folks treated her and 1116 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:28,680 Speaker 2: her team like shit. We never thought she would actually 1117 01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 2: say anything. Staffers across a range of ages and positions 1118 01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:35,400 Speaker 2: that I'm talking to are proud of her. Yeah, so 1119 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 2: there's clearly, like I mean again, it just shows a 1120 01:00:38,440 --> 01:00:41,720 Speaker 2: very divided administration. And I think that was really probably 1121 01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:44,880 Speaker 2: became clear as Biden just sat on his hands after 1122 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:51,040 Speaker 2: October seventh, too, right, So yeah, we will see where 1123 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:53,360 Speaker 2: if this, if this harms her career because you have 1124 01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:57,520 Speaker 2: other people being like, well, she just nuked her career. Really, yeah, 1125 01:00:57,680 --> 01:00:58,160 Speaker 2: I mean I don't know. 1126 01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:00,240 Speaker 1: I mean like I feel like the type of people 1127 01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:03,240 Speaker 1: who say that, who are like play it safe politically 1128 01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:06,880 Speaker 1: always have have proven that they have some of the 1129 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:09,720 Speaker 1: worst instincts in modern politics. 1130 01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:11,840 Speaker 2: I mean, like think about like Anthony Wiener, you know 1131 01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:14,080 Speaker 2: what I mean, who went to prison, like he's even 1132 01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:17,880 Speaker 2: trying to get back in.
