Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of vivek
Speaker 1: Rama Trendy named after our New King New gop hot shot.
Speaker 2: Hold on a second, Jack New King.
Speaker 1: Yeah, sorry, well I'm a little late to the game, okay,
Speaker 1: And you've been telling me, you've been talking guy. He's
Speaker 1: a statesman, scientist. I don't know why I'm talking like Obama.
Speaker 2: But he's also got bars.
Speaker 1: It's also got bars. Yeah. He he quoted Obama during
Speaker 1: the debate. He roasted Pence.
Speaker 2: Completely, just torched him to the ground.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the only thing he did wrong was claimed
Speaker 1: to be a scientist while also claiming that climate change
Speaker 1: is a hoax. But that's not that big a deal
Speaker 1: my indifferences of opinion, you know, Like he seems to
Speaker 1: have that. He seems to be the young energetic sociopath narcissism,
Speaker 1: like a form of narcissism that works really well for
Speaker 1: this sort of thing. Like he seems to have the
Speaker 1: most juice of anybody. He had the most interesting energy,
Speaker 1: I guess. Yeah, he had a lot of interesting energy. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he he has the same thing that Trump has. That
Speaker 1: is like noteworthy because it feels like this isn't going
Speaker 1: through a like team of political operatives in their brain,
Speaker 1: you know, like it it feels like it's just he's
Speaker 1: shooting from the hip and happy to be wrong or
Speaker 1: not wrong. He just doesn't doesn't believe he's ever been wrong.
Speaker 2: Well, and when you're worth nine hundred million dollars, I mean, yeah,
Speaker 2: how can you go wrong?
Speaker 1: Yeah, So we'll dig into him a little bit more
Speaker 1: on tomorrow's episode. But I mean the one that all
Speaker 1: eyes were on DeSantis heading in and he seemed to
Speaker 1: know it because he gave us one of the most
Speaker 1: uncomfortable smiles. I'm I think I've ever seen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's really topped himself. He's had a long, rich
Speaker 2: history of awkward, off putting smiles that no human would make.
Speaker 2: And uh, yeah, he's gone above and beyond.
Speaker 1: He says, I will not let you down, and he
Speaker 1: looks very serious and there's like a lot of conviction,
Speaker 1: and then his face does a thing.
Speaker 2: That is so it's really it's like it's the most pained.
Speaker 2: It's like it's like trying to get up off of
Speaker 2: a couch after you've taken a heroic dose of mushrooms.
Speaker 2: Like that's how much energy he's putting forest to make
Speaker 2: the most wan unnatural smile.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks like his mouth hurts really bad. It
Speaker 1: looks like.
Speaker 2: Yeah and blew his smile muscles out.
Speaker 1: His cheeks are burning. He he looks like he's never
Speaker 1: used those muscles before. Producer Victor was saying, it looks
Speaker 1: like he's like a kindergartener trying to smile for a picture.
Speaker 1: But like it, I I identify with that. That looks
Speaker 1: like me trying to smile for a picture, like if
Speaker 1: I'm on the verge of tears. Like that's he's just
Speaker 1: he looks like he's in such inner conflict, which kind
Speaker 1: of makes sense, like he's just he's in an impossible position.
Speaker 1: I think. I don't think he has the muscle to
Speaker 1: just not be aware that to just like have everything
Speaker 1: like kind of bounce off of him. I think he's
Speaker 1: like thin skinned in a way that does not serve
Speaker 1: someone in a presidential primary.
Speaker 2: No, because he's he's just got heavy like a high
Speaker 2: school bully energy.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 2: Uh, And you know everybody knows what happens when you
Speaker 2: stand up to a high school bully.
Speaker 1: They typically told because they're not really used to. Sometimes
Speaker 1: they jump kick you in the chest. That's what happened
Speaker 1: to me when I stood up to a high school bully.
Speaker 1: As I talked about I think on a recent episode,
Speaker 1: I pushed a bully back and then he jump kicked
Speaker 1: me in the chest, and I started crying because of
Speaker 1: how cool it looked, Like.
Speaker 2: Jack, what were you doing picking on macho man Randy
Speaker 2: Savage in the first place? I know, just let him
Speaker 2: bully you.
Speaker 1: Like, I was like, I can't believe he just did that.
Speaker 1: So not all bullies work like that, but like, there
Speaker 1: is a certain type of bully where it is driven by, like,
Speaker 1: you know, a thin, skindidness.
Speaker 2: And he reminds me of the type of bully where
Speaker 2: it's it's the kid who has like an abusive dad
Speaker 2: at home and they come to school and take it
Speaker 2: out on everyone else. Yeah, it's like a deeply insecure,
Speaker 2: sad little boy type.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I see him, and I just yes. There's also
Speaker 1: the moment where Brett Baer, who was kind of conducting
Speaker 1: the debate, asked the people if they'd support Trump even
Speaker 1: if he's a like a convicted felon. Basically, I think
Speaker 1: is the gist of it. And so the VEC just
Speaker 1: throws his hand up because you know why the fuck
Speaker 1: not me, me me, Yeah, And when he does that, it,
Speaker 1: my guess is everybody else was like, I'm not going
Speaker 1: to commit to that at this juncture in their brain.
Speaker 1: Vec puts his hand up, the crowd goes wild, and
Speaker 1: then we see what the rest of these candidates are
Speaker 1: made of, and one by one they're all like, woo,
Speaker 1: me too, me too. But DeSantis is the one who
Speaker 1: is like most conspicuously chasing the applause. Like he's like,
Speaker 1: once it's clear that people are applauding, he like throws
Speaker 1: his hand up and it's just he's just like, it's
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, it's fun to watch because he's
Speaker 1: such a fucking piece of shit.
Speaker 2: It really is, it is, and he really is.
Speaker 1: He's just doing such a bad job, Brian, It's it's
Speaker 1: such a joy to watch him suck this badly. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: congratulations to him.
Speaker 2: Had another failed sun to follow.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So it seems like everyone's strategy heading in was
Speaker 1: to like not alienate Trump's fans and hope to be
Speaker 1: sitting in second place if his campaign gets fucked or
Speaker 1: if he is in prison and like is not allowed
Speaker 1: to run for president for some reason, and you know,
Speaker 1: it's just a weird it really, like for being a
Speaker 1: presidential primary debate really felt like a non event wherever
Speaker 1: nobody would like say the thing that is actually important,
Speaker 1: which is that they're all like forty points behind Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: And so Trump meanwhile, was over on Twitter with Tucker Carlson.
Speaker 2: Oh oh way, Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1: So Tucker like on this show seems to be like
Speaker 1: the research he got was like it seems like he
Speaker 1: has a intern who just found out about the Internet.
Speaker 1: And so like that because like when when it was
Speaker 1: time to like turn right the ship from sagging ratings,
Speaker 1: he went and like interviewed Andrew Taate. Like it's just
Speaker 1: like the most like broad scope topics of like, hey,
Speaker 1: what's the internet talking about? So in this he opens
Speaker 1: the thing basically by asking the question that's on all
Speaker 1: American voters' minds. Did Jeffrey Epstein actually kill himself? Juicy? Juicy?
Speaker 1: That is juicy, Like I kind of respect that, Like
Speaker 1: that's that's kind of funny. And Trump gave just like
Speaker 1: a complete rambling non answer. It was just like as
Speaker 1: possible that he was murdered, many are saying, but he
Speaker 1: speculated that he probably committed suicide, not because he was
Speaker 1: facing charges of sex trafficking, but because he was away
Speaker 1: from his beautiful homes, well in jail, which I don't know.
Speaker 1: That maybe a little bit revealing about where he's at
Speaker 1: heading into possibly being in jail, that he doesn't want
Speaker 1: to be away from his beautiful homes. Yeah, foreshadowing perhaps, yeah,
Speaker 1: But I mean that is that he gave the CIA
Speaker 1: exactly what they need if they do decide to off him.
Speaker 2: What if he's for d chessing right now and he's
Speaker 2: he's plotting to like fake his death. He's going to
Speaker 2: get like Vladimir to like missile down one of his
Speaker 2: planes and he's just gonna fuck off to some island somewhere.
Speaker 1: Oh man, I could see that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he seems to be he's too proud to run away,
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 1: Yeah, although he has thrown out the idea that he's
Speaker 1: going to run to Russia and live in one of
Speaker 1: those gold domes.
Speaker 2: I read that as how the fuck could I flee?
Speaker 1: That's true, he wasn't serious about that, but anyways. He
Speaker 1: also took time to criticize how Biden looks in a
Speaker 1: bathing suit. So I think he looks terrible on the beach.
Speaker 1: I don't know what they're doing with the beach. The
Speaker 1: beach seems to be playing a big role. They love
Speaker 1: pictures of him on the beach. I think he looks
Speaker 1: terrible on the beach. You know, he's just he like,
Speaker 1: deep down at his heart, wants to be a media critic.
Speaker 1: Like that's always what he's been most passionate about. Like
Speaker 1: he loves he loves talking talking shit about Robert Pattinson's
Speaker 1: relationships and wait, seriously, yeah, like before he ran for president,
Speaker 1: he he had these tweets where it was like, Robert,
Speaker 1: you have to ditch Kristin Stewart. She's a loser. Get
Speaker 1: rid of her.
Speaker 2: Oh he's wrong with Christen.
Speaker 1: He had this like YouTube channel that was still up
Speaker 1: when he was like running for president that had like
Speaker 1: a thousand videos where he was just going on and
Speaker 1: like giving you his opinions on like media and pop culture.
Speaker 2: He's just doing react video, just react videos. He's just
Speaker 2: doing Donald Trump, Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: I think this show actually stinks. I don't think it's
Speaker 1: very good. Robert Pattinson is hot to trot and he
Speaker 1: needs to get rid of Kristen Stewart. She's just gonna
Speaker 1: cheat on you, Robert. So I think ultimately that's what
Speaker 1: he wants to be doing. And so his rather than
Speaker 1: like having a coherent strategic thing about like this highlights
Speaker 1: his age. He's approaching the Biden things as like a
Speaker 1: mistake from a from a campaign strategy perspective, like he's
Speaker 1: just doing it like a like a political strategist. Which fine,
Speaker 1: that's great, that's what makes him interesting and crazy. There
Speaker 1: is a moment that I want, I want to just play.
Speaker 2: Here, please, and we need to hear this one again.
Speaker 1: So this is at one point he starts ranting about
Speaker 1: the Panama Canal and mosquitoes.
Speaker 2: Now real quick, before we get into this, what was
Speaker 2: this in response.
Speaker 1: To ran like, it's it's impossible to know. Yeah, I've
Speaker 1: tried to figure it out. I've tried to, like just
Speaker 1: in advance, we we did try to figure out who
Speaker 1: he is, the he that he's referring to, and I'm
Speaker 1: to figure out.
Speaker 2: I think it's it's Jesus, But anyone really, my man,
Speaker 2: j C.
Speaker 1: Actually, let's take a quick break and we'll come back
Speaker 1: and we'll we'll listen to Trump UH during a presidential
Speaker 1: campaign appearance, UH talking about the Panama Canal. We'll be
Speaker 1: right back, and we're back and okay, so here it is.
Speaker 1: We we don't really know what Tucker's question was, but
Speaker 1: it does doesn't really matter. It couldn't have had a
Speaker 1: I can't think of a possible question that this could
Speaker 1: actually make sense in response to.
Speaker 3: So, we built a thing called the Panama Canal. We
Speaker 3: lost thirty five thousand people to the mosquito. No malaria. Yeah,
Speaker 3: we lost thirty five thousand people building. We lost thirty
Speaker 3: five thousand people because of the mosquito.
Speaker 1: So he got stuck there for a little bit, just
Speaker 1: to reiterate what he said. We built a thing called
Speaker 1: the Panama Canal. We lost thirty five thousand people to
Speaker 1: the mosquito. Malaria, We lost thirty five thousand people. We
Speaker 1: lost thirty five thousand people because of the mosquito.
Speaker 3: Okay, yes, one of the true great wonders of the
Speaker 3: world is he said, one of the nine wonders of
Speaker 3: the world. Now it was one of the seven. This
Speaker 3: happened a little while ago. You know, since nine wonders
Speaker 3: of the world, you could make nine wonders.
Speaker 1: All right, this is where we go off, like completely
Speaker 1: lose track, lose the thread.
Speaker 2: He took such a hard left turn he completely flipped
Speaker 2: his fucking jeep. Yeah, because I don't know what he
Speaker 2: is talking about.
Speaker 1: All right, let's just let him here where, so here,
Speaker 1: here we go.
Speaker 3: He would have been better off if be stuck with
Speaker 3: the nine and just said, yeah, I think it's not
Speaker 3: but this is one of the true seven wonders of
Speaker 3: the world. And you take a look at the Panama.
Speaker 3: It was such an incredible engineering Marvel. We sold it
Speaker 3: under Jimmy Carter, we sold it to Panama.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay. My initial response was I must have missed
Speaker 1: something there, but let me just read the transcript. After saying,
Speaker 1: we lost thirty five thousand people to the mosquito over
Speaker 1: and over again and then gone vicious. They had to
Speaker 1: build under nets. It was one of the true great
Speaker 1: wonders of So then he gets into the wonders of
Speaker 1: the world. It was one of the true great wonders
Speaker 1: of the world, as he said, one of the nine
Speaker 1: wonders of the world. No, no, it was one of
Speaker 1: the seven. So then he like gets distracted by the
Speaker 1: idea of the wonders of the world. No, no, it
Speaker 1: was one of the seven. It happened a little while ago,
Speaker 1: you know, nine wonders of the world, you could make
Speaker 1: nine wonders. He would have been better off if he's
Speaker 1: stuck with the nine and just said, yeah, I think
Speaker 1: it's nine. But this is one of the true seven
Speaker 1: wonders of the world. So in this instance, let me
Speaker 1: get talking about Brian hold.
Speaker 2: On, Jake. I'm pulling up the calculator because I got
Speaker 2: to add up these numbers. He might be trying to
Speaker 2: say something. This might be a que drop.
Speaker 1: When when the when the he comes in is the
Speaker 1: he himself in the past tense like he is he
Speaker 1: Donald Trump five seconds ago, and he's like having this
Speaker 1: meta commentary inside his head about like what he should
Speaker 1: have said, because he said, you know, the nine wonders
Speaker 1: of the world, you could make nine wonders. Would have
Speaker 1: been better off if he had stuck with the nine
Speaker 1: and just said, yeah, I think it's nine.
Speaker 2: I think he's talking about our one true Lord and Savior,
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ Christ. Through him, all things are possible, including
Speaker 2: any world wonders as you want.
Speaker 1: They had to build under nets. It was one of
Speaker 1: the true great wonders of the world. As he said,
Speaker 1: one of the nine wonders of the world. No, No,
Speaker 1: it was one of the seven, which truly, like he
Speaker 1: shouldn't have cut in with the seven. And so I
Speaker 1: think he might be like giving it like doing a
Speaker 1: media commentary on himself.
Speaker 2: Maybe I love how we're he's so stupid that we're
Speaker 2: we think he might be a genius.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is a good metaphor for his
Speaker 1: entire fucking presidency because uh yeah, for d man he's
Speaker 1: like viewing it the way doctor Manhattan would view his thing.
Speaker 1: He's like unstuck from time and.
Speaker 2: Just trying to have a conversation with doctor Manhattan. He's
Speaker 2: over the map.
Speaker 1: Two sucks. Guy's so boring. Ho on, No, he's like seriously,
Speaker 1: like look at my big serious dick. Anyways, it was viewed.
Speaker 1: This interview was viewed like I don't know a lot
Speaker 1: of people. He was viewed two hundred million times in
Speaker 1: an hour. This is a win for Trump and for
Speaker 1: Carlson and like Fox News fuck you, And that's true,
Speaker 1: Like this is bad for Fox News a lot of
Speaker 1: but I feel like it's also probably bad for Trump too,
Speaker 1: Like this was not a compelling So I feel like
Speaker 1: he is on that diet drug because he does seem
Speaker 1: to be like losing a little weight in his face
Speaker 1: in a way that the presidency, being the president of
Speaker 1: the United States like usually one of the most stressful jobs,
Speaker 1: like never made him do. So I wonder if he's
Speaker 1: like just getting a little bit more like he's he's
Speaker 1: kind of running out of gas and we're we're going
Speaker 1: to see he's just running. Oh yeah, definitely. You know,
Speaker 1: his theory on exercise is that we only have a
Speaker 1: finite amount of energy in a lifetime, and so exercise
Speaker 1: is just like bringing you closer to an early grave.
Speaker 2: Oh so he's one of those people that thinks, like,
Speaker 2: you know, your lifespan is determined by how many heart
Speaker 2: beats you've.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you've had.
Speaker 2: H Yeah, basically you only get a hundred thousand heart
Speaker 2: beats folks.
Speaker 1: So I can tell you he is not running, So
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's well, we'll see, I mean, we
Speaker 1: won't see anything. This is all gonna be a mess.
Speaker 1: Still no, still, no mugshot from this guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I was looking before we started recording, and they
Speaker 2: said he's supposed to turn himself in today. But yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: to your point about you know, it looking bad for him,
Speaker 2: When does anything ever looked bad for him, Jack never
Speaker 2: Ye like he's got nine hundred felony counts on him
Speaker 2: and he's still going strong. Sou we will we will
Speaker 2: see and you can't can't wait, can't wait till he
Speaker 2: gets in a debate so to hear another solo.
Speaker 1: As of as of this recording, he is supposed to
Speaker 1: turn himself in in an hour and a half. He's
Speaker 1: like fired one of his lawyers. We're awaiting the historic mugshot.
Speaker 1: But the the mugshots of like Meadows and Juliani and
Speaker 1: all his henchmen are have been a great amuz Bush.
Speaker 1: I've really appreciated that they've given us a little appetizer
Speaker 1: because it's really runs the gamut.
Speaker 2: Do you think that.
Speaker 1: Do you have any last thoughts on like what he's
Speaker 1: going to do and his mugshot? I think he's gonna smile, right.
Speaker 2: I was just gonna ask, just based on the mugshots
Speaker 2: we've gotten thus far, what do you think? What do
Speaker 2: you think the odds are like Vegas ods on like
Speaker 2: his hair like just being completely blown out up top,
Speaker 2: you know with lighting, or you think he's gonna have
Speaker 2: more of a Juliani or more of like those other
Speaker 2: white guys in the mug shots.
Speaker 1: The white guys who's whose photos are completely blown out
Speaker 1: and like, yeah, they look like.
Speaker 2: I'm like, how are they so varied? Were they taking
Speaker 2: it with in different places or something, because yeah, some
Speaker 2: of them are just really you know, really brutal. They
Speaker 2: really need to upgrade those U upgrade to four K
Speaker 2: or something.
Speaker 1: It does seem like a total crapshoot, like what the
Speaker 1: thing looks like because they're using some of the shitty
Speaker 1: like for whatever reason, mugshots, which are supposed to be
Speaker 1: this like scientific like aspect of the criminal justice system,
Speaker 1: is like done with cameras from the late nineties. Like
Speaker 1: I'm sure they transfer the photographs to like those like
Speaker 1: mini discs. Yeah yeah, onto a thumb drive. Yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: So it's it's really interesting. I have no idea what
Speaker 1: it's gonna what he's gonna look like, other than I
Speaker 1: do think he'll probably smile because in the past he's
Speaker 1: usually tried to smile at these sorts of things.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's a toss up for me between a
Speaker 2: smile or the tough guy frown that he has. Were
Speaker 2: just like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah in here, no matter what his
Speaker 1: his audience is gonna love it.
Speaker 2: He will be ready for picture day. I'm sure of
Speaker 2: that though.
Speaker 1: Oh for sure, he's in makeup. Like the only thing
Speaker 1: that's holding him back for from turning himself in is
Speaker 1: he's in makeup. Is he's getting last looks right now.
Speaker 1: But yeah, so by the time you hear this, the
Speaker 1: world will have will be going crazy about those mugshot.
Speaker 1: And also see they've approved cameras in the court, so
Speaker 1: this should be.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's like a regular thing in Georgia. But I
Speaker 2: you know, I didn't know if they were gonna, you know,
Speaker 2: let that ride.
Speaker 1: Yeah, apparently that's like.
Speaker 2: A whole thing. I don't know if you have that's
Speaker 2: always like I have family in there, and they like
Speaker 2: if you get arrested for like random shit, they just
Speaker 2: put your your picture in the paper, like in the
Speaker 2: town paper and all that. Great. Yeah, it's it's it's wild.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Florida is the same way. And I've I've looked
Speaker 1: up old friends mugshots before.
Speaker 2: What I have to Oh hey, buddy, nothing like googling
Speaker 2: an old friend and finding a mug shot.
Speaker 1: Right. Yeah, anyways, all right, Well those are some of
Speaker 1: the things that are trending on this Thursday early afternoon.
Speaker 1: We are back tomorrow with a whole ass episode of
Speaker 1: the show. Until then, be kind to each other, be
Speaker 1: kind to yourselves, get the vaccine, don't do nothing about
Speaker 1: white supremacy, and we will talk to you all tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Bye bye bye
