Speaker 1: Hello everybody, and welcome to this afternoon edition, Thursday, April
Speaker 1: third edition. Up the Great Depressed Trend two point zero.
Speaker 2: Yeah this applause, applause, Thank you.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Caitlyn. That's why I need you here. Look,
Speaker 1: I'm Miles G in the Place to be, and I'm
Speaker 1: here with Kaitlyn d also in the place to be.
Speaker 1: Kaitlan dude one, thank you for joining me. How are you?
Speaker 2: I am period, that's the way to say it.
Speaker 1: That's the way to say it, and you I am
Speaker 1: as well. I think therefore I am. Let's just get
Speaker 1: into what's trending. Let's rip the bandaid off. Tariffs obviously
Speaker 1: trending because this is the first day after Trump's really
Speaker 1: cool announcement on the White House lawn reheld up graphic
Speaker 1: cards that had absolutely incorrect information on it.
Speaker 3: All.
Speaker 1: That's to say we will be getting a lot deeper
Speaker 1: into the details of the tariffs. Let's just say right now,
Speaker 1: it's doing what it's intending to do, which is to
Speaker 1: royal the markets, and we will see where we end
Speaker 1: up on the other side. It's just too early to tell.
Speaker 1: But if you like line go up on the stock market.
Speaker 1: Not your day, not your news line go down. The
Speaker 1: shitty part is when line go down. Even if you
Speaker 1: don't have money and in line go up or down market,
Speaker 1: we are affected by line go down because all of
Speaker 1: the people who have all the money and all the capital,
Speaker 1: they they're going to do things that make our line
Speaker 1: go down, probably too eventually, so be on the lookout
Speaker 1: for that. But here for now, let's just get into
Speaker 1: some other things that are trending, because obviously we all
Speaker 1: know that we're gonna have to brace ourselves.
Speaker 2: The market doesn't affect me because rather than American dollars,
Speaker 2: I use the resources from katan oh.
Speaker 1: Or okay, and sheep yep, yep, yep.
Speaker 2: And would yeah, so yes, I really recommend everyone get
Speaker 2: on a Katan based kind of currency.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, I mean, look, if you are a follower
Speaker 1: of Curtis Yarvin, who we do get into a little
Speaker 1: bit more on tomorrow's episode, he did have a plan
Speaker 1: for all the the unproductive members of society was to
Speaker 1: hook them up to a big video game where they
Speaker 1: thought they were living. Well, the other people have things
Speaker 1: go so in a way, your catan metaphor may be
Speaker 1: apt army hammer. We haven't heard from him in a.
Speaker 2: While, I'm still eating people or whatever.
Speaker 1: Look he said, he said in a metaphor. He's not
Speaker 1: an actual cannibal, okay. And also his grandpa is really rich.
Speaker 1: All right, armand Hammer. Have you heard of him? That's
Speaker 1: actually yeah, that's that's just that's his grandpa, right, great Armond. Yeah, like,
Speaker 1: have you heard of the like the armand Hammer museum
Speaker 1: that we have here U c l A. It's a
Speaker 1: there's yeah, no, oh no, yeah, he comes from dynastic wealth.
Speaker 2: Well I know he's from armand Hammer, a bad Minnesota.
Speaker 1: That's what everyone thought. Yeah, no, no relations sadly when
Speaker 1: your grandpa's name is armand like armand ar m A
Speaker 1: N D. And your last name's Hammer. But anyway, he
Speaker 1: apparently earlier this year there was an announcement that Armie
Speaker 1: Hammer was going to be like doing his comeback with
Speaker 1: a new movie from what a lot of people consider
Speaker 1: the world's worst director. Obviously, that is so subjective and
Speaker 1: so unfair to Uva Bowl, the German auteur who just
Speaker 1: mostly his recent films are just mostly like guy shoots
Speaker 1: up entire town, the movie hyper Violence. Apparently they were
Speaker 1: going to do a movie together about a Vigilante, Embrace yourself.
Speaker 1: That movie was going to be called drum Rope. Lease,
Speaker 1: it was going to be called The Dark Night.
Speaker 2: And it's not a Batman movie, correct, I guess not?
Speaker 2: But well, I don't I don't see. I don't see
Speaker 2: the problem.
Speaker 1: I don't either. I mean, Armie Hammer is in a
Speaker 1: real life bad guy, so how could he ever be Batman?
Speaker 1: I mean, but he is like a wealthy fuck who
Speaker 1: probably I guess maybe a lot more does overlap. But again,
Speaker 1: turns out they had to change the movie. I don't
Speaker 1: know why again, because we still don't see, don't see
Speaker 1: the problem. Is there something called The Dark Knight already,
Speaker 1: but not that I've ever heard of. So the movie
Speaker 1: is now being called Citizen Vigilante. And when like the
Speaker 1: trades are like, hey, Ova, bull, what happened? I thought
Speaker 1: it was called Dark Knight. This is what he said quote.
Speaker 1: We had a very friendly conversation with Warner Brothers and
Speaker 1: decided to change our title to Citizen Vigilante to avoid
Speaker 1: any confusion with Warner's famous characters. It sounds like he's
Speaker 1: reciting what the seas and Desist notice was to him,
Speaker 1: that you must change the name from the Dark Knight
Speaker 1: to avoid any confusion with Warner Brothers famous like, sure
Speaker 1: it was friendly. I guess in so far as that
Speaker 1: you read the season desist and you're like, I don't
Speaker 1: want to smoke with Warner Brothers.
Speaker 2: No, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean respect. He went,
Speaker 2: he tried something, he went for it. It didn't work,
Speaker 2: but yeah, you know, he tried, and that's what's important.
Speaker 1: This then, the executive producer, I love when people act.
Speaker 1: I love the art of pretending you just didn't take
Speaker 1: an l and just like it's actually just like this
Speaker 1: other stuff. The executive producer of the movie also was
Speaker 1: quoted and for already said quote. We also got a
Speaker 1: lot of feedback from fans who asked us to change
Speaker 1: the title because of its similarity with Chris Nolan's movie.
Speaker 1: So this is another factor in changing the title. Yeah,
Speaker 1: not the fucking not studio that could sue you into
Speaker 1: fucking oblivion.
Speaker 2: Uh huh, the fans Citizen Vigilante.
Speaker 1: It's probably you know, he's it's just gonna be about
Speaker 1: some guy who got canceled and like murdered everyone in
Speaker 1: Hollywood or something. Oh, I don't know. That's usually how
Speaker 1: Uvabol's films work.
Speaker 2: I'm realizing I haven't seen a single one. I was
Speaker 2: looking up his filmography. There's like, it seems like there's
Speaker 2: a Jason Statham movie in the Name of the King.
Speaker 2: We've got postal, We've got blood rain, rain not spelled
Speaker 2: how you'd think. Rampage.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got a rampage President Down. So the first
Speaker 1: stram Page movie came out in like two thousand and
Speaker 1: eight or nine. This is the description an ordinary young
Speaker 1: man in a small town suddenly snaps, arming himself with
Speaker 1: machine guns and going on a relentless killing spree. Okay,
Speaker 1: Then there's twenty fourteen's Rampage Capital Punishment. Bill Williamson attempts
Speaker 1: to wreak vengeance on the rich and break Washington apart
Speaker 1: by taking control of a TV station and holding its
Speaker 1: staff hostage. Then you have twenty sixteen's Rampage President Down.
Speaker 1: Bill Williamson returns.
Speaker 2: The characters name is Bill Williamson, which means his name
Speaker 2: is William Williamson probably like his full name, yes, okay.
Speaker 1: Or Bill Williams Bill Bilson.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 1: Bill Williamson returns to bring down the President of the
Speaker 1: United States and his secret service detail. I'm like weren't
Speaker 1: you just in the Capitol? What I mean, what happened
Speaker 1: Bill Williamson, Because he's also in the first so I
Speaker 1: just love that he's always just getting away with it,
Speaker 1: this wacky old Bill on him. So I think I'm
Speaker 1: gonna miss that one. But you know, if that's your
Speaker 1: bag watching Army Hammer do fake ass Batman, then hey,
Speaker 1: you've got something. Speaking of media though, too, the rehearsal
Speaker 1: season two trailer, the full trailer just dropped, Caitlin. I
Speaker 1: know you said you haven't seen the first season, highly recommend,
Speaker 1: but look it's up to you. Like, if you're not
Speaker 1: fucking with Nathan Fielder, then you're not.
Speaker 2: Fucking I mean I was a fan of Nathan for You,
Speaker 2: so okay, then you'll it is.
Speaker 1: Did you watch Nathan for You all the way to
Speaker 1: the end like the last season?
Speaker 2: I think I did. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So do you remember how the last sort of episode
Speaker 1: became like a long special where that the Bill Gates
Speaker 1: impersonator guy was looking for his long lost time in
Speaker 1: Arkansas and it went kind of meta. The rehearsal just
Speaker 1: feels like a natural extension of Nathan Fielder going more
Speaker 1: and more meta with how he just sees things all right,
Speaker 1: and that's how you get the rehearsal. Then that has
Speaker 1: its own thing. Now we have the rehearsal too, which
Speaker 1: we watch the trailer together. I don't I'm not sure
Speaker 1: an escalation. We know it involves aviation safety. That's the
Speaker 1: central theme. There's a fake airport, there's fake pilots, there's
Speaker 1: people learning to pretend to be pilots. There's a fake congression.
Speaker 1: I don't know what the fuck is going on, but
Speaker 1: I'll watch it.
Speaker 2: I'm here for it.
Speaker 1: Did you watch his one with Emma Stone? That show?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 2: Which one was that?
Speaker 1: That was called The Curse?
Speaker 2: Okay, another one I haven't seen. I'm so bad at TV.
Speaker 2: I see every movie that comes out, which means I
Speaker 2: will be seeing Vigilante, Citizen Times or whatever it's.
Speaker 1: Called, Yes, Citizen on the Run, whatever it is.
Speaker 2: But I don't watch a lot of TV. Not because
Speaker 2: I don't like it. I just have to make an issue.
Speaker 1: You're talking to the person who doesn't watch anything at
Speaker 1: all either, because I'm so overwhelmed by the sheer volume
Speaker 1: of things too much. But I I'll I have a
Speaker 1: soft spot for just Nathan Fielder whenever he's doing something wacky.
Speaker 1: That show gets fucking goes to absurd town too.
Speaker 2: The curse.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, let's take a quick break.
Speaker 1: We'll be right back to talk about some of the
Speaker 1: other things that are trending right now. And we are back.
Speaker 1: So RFK he's begun, like the great purge at like
Speaker 1: the FDA and CDC and things like that. He's We're
Speaker 1: starting to see all of the cuts that are being made.
Speaker 1: I think he just got rid of the Freedom of
Speaker 1: Information Act, like the peep the departments that handle foyer
Speaker 1: requests for things like the CDC. So yes, of course,
Speaker 1: transparency number one in that we won't show y'all shit,
Speaker 1: so don't ask. But he's now again because RFK has
Speaker 1: a If you google RFK measles, he has a tremendous
Speaker 1: track record of giving people the worst advice, which certainly
Speaker 1: leads people to early preventable deaths and it's a tragedy.
Speaker 1: But he's repeatedly claiming that one of the best ways
Speaker 1: to battle measles is to obviously get vaccinate. Way when
Speaker 1: I read that wrong, is to take vitamin A and
Speaker 1: cod liver oil as soon as you get the measles
Speaker 1: that's all you got to do.
Speaker 2: That's what we all know to be the truth.
Speaker 1: M M, thank you. He wrote an article in Fox
Speaker 1: News and said this element can quote dramatically reduce measles mortality.
Speaker 4: I like that.
Speaker 1: That's vague, because if someone does die following your bone
Speaker 1: headed advice, you can just be like I just say
Speaker 1: it can dramatically reduce me I never said it's gonna
Speaker 1: prevent you from dying from a disease, that you need
Speaker 1: to have a vaccination to prevent death from.
Speaker 2: Just saying it can. Language. Language is important, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Very much here, So don't hit me with a cease
Speaker 1: and desist on that. Okay, this thing is called the
Speaker 1: Dark Knight. But he's been saying this over and over.
Speaker 1: It's all about vitamin A. It's all about cod liver oil.
Speaker 1: These are effective treatments. Now, it is true. The World
Speaker 1: Health Organization does it recommends low doses of vitamin A
Speaker 1: for children diagnosed with measles. But again they say that
Speaker 1: it is to specifically quote a supplementation in case of
Speaker 1: deficiency and is not quote intended to treat the virus.
Speaker 1: But what do they know? What do they know? What
Speaker 1: do they know?
Speaker 4: Now?
Speaker 1: In Texas hospitals are reportedly having to treat kids who
Speaker 1: have measles and vitamin A poisoning because parents are much
Speaker 1: I never even thought that was a thing, took too
Speaker 1: much vitamin A, but apparently it is because they are
Speaker 1: people are just this is like you, I don't know
Speaker 1: if we lived in a I don't know. If we
Speaker 1: lived in a just world, we never have, but we wouldn't.
Speaker 1: We wouldn't allow people to fucking put their kids at
Speaker 1: risk and poison them with vitamin A. They're saying, Yeah,
Speaker 1: these kids are coming in with quote abnormal liver function.
Speaker 2: So how do you even get Like when you go
Speaker 2: to the grocery store or whatever and there's like the
Speaker 2: supplements section, can you even I haven't seen in like
Speaker 2: individual bottles of vitamin A. You know they got C,
Speaker 2: they got D, they got can you get vitamin A?
Speaker 2: I guess I've just been because I don't give us
Speaker 2: a little ship about vitamin A.
Speaker 1: And yeah, I mean, hey, we not vitamin A deficient, y'all.
Speaker 1: That's our vilege. But yeah, I don't know. I didn't
Speaker 1: even know. I The only vitamin I ever was given
Speaker 1: as a kid was flintstones.
Speaker 2: Yeah, which is like probably a multi.
Speaker 1: It's a multi. It's a multi multi. It's a shocky
Speaker 1: candy for a kid, is how I looked at it.
Speaker 2: And do you remember when Thailand all used to taste
Speaker 2: so good? Because yeah, chew it and it was grape.
Speaker 1: Yeah there was also I think I read one too.
Speaker 1: Wasn't that a strawberry or cherry one too?
Speaker 2: I think so. I was all about the grape stuff.
Speaker 1: But even though it was like the shittiest texture texture,
Speaker 1: You're like, it's sweet, So what am I gonna do? Beggar?
Speaker 2: I thought they taste a gray. I thought flintstones flintstones
Speaker 2: did not taste as.
Speaker 1: Good, but those were grainy.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah to uh too rocky, I would say to.
Speaker 4: Flinty, flint to flint stone, stony to stony as I might,
Speaker 4: Yes as they did they Yes, yes, who among us
Speaker 4: didn't break our teeth on a handful of flintstone vitamins?
Speaker 1: But I ate so much of those that I remember
Speaker 1: my mom was like, you're gonna get sick eating just
Speaker 1: all these vitamins, And I remember that like stuck with
Speaker 1: me until someone was like you just typically just piss
Speaker 1: out the vitamins. Your body can't absorb.
Speaker 2: But that a and you have like fucking liver poisoning.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so great, that's that's what's happening on the health front.
Speaker 1: Just to kind of keep it in the world of politics.
Speaker 1: So as we reported, not re report, what the fuck
Speaker 1: am I even saying, as I fucking screamed about earlier
Speaker 1: this week after reading articles.
Speaker 2: That's reporting, I didn't have to catch my society.
Speaker 1: In today's society, I should be getting a fucking Peabody award. Okay,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Yeah, I do a bit
Speaker 1: of research, I guess, and I am open to new
Speaker 1: ways of thinking, but I'm science is pretty subtle for me.
Speaker 1: But anyway, in Wisconsin, right Elon Musk took the huge
Speaker 1: l he pretended, like the twenty million dollars he's spent
Speaker 1: on that Supreme Court seat. It was he actually knew
Speaker 1: he was gonna lose, and so he's not actually feeling
Speaker 1: bad because it was about this voter ide law, that
Speaker 1: passion in Wisconsin, and that was the thing that I
Speaker 1: was actually there for, and I put no money into
Speaker 1: and spent no time talking about, even though I kept
Speaker 1: sounding the alarm over the end of Western civilization. If
Speaker 1: this liberal justice makes it to the Supreme Court bench
Speaker 1: in Wisconsin. Anyway, he is. Now he's boosting conspiracy theories
Speaker 1: about the potentially dubious results of that very real race
Speaker 1: that he says he cares not about. So there was
Speaker 1: like a fucking Roger Stone based lie where he basically
Speaker 1: says that the Crawford campaign that's the woman who won,
Speaker 1: was quote illegally financed. And so he's like on Alex
Speaker 1: own show saying it's a matter of simple math. The
Speaker 1: numbers just don't add up. And they're saying what because
Speaker 1: Musk spent twenty billion and and the other campaign was
Speaker 1: like barely any I don't know, I really don't know
Speaker 1: what they're saying. So Musk, underneath that tweet that had
Speaker 1: this video clip playing, he just replied hm, as he
Speaker 1: does to really stir the fucking pot.
Speaker 2: He's so pensive, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's just so full. He's like Tom Yorke, you know,
Speaker 1: he's so intriguing, Like what's going on with him? Can
Speaker 1: he dance like him? I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think also, I don't know if we talked about
Speaker 1: this on the show. I think we didn't because we
Speaker 1: were having our own internal debates about Popeye's pickle themed menu.
Speaker 1: There's like all everything is. There's like a pickle glazed
Speaker 1: sandwich and fried pickles and then a pickle lemonade. We were,
Speaker 1: you know, we were kind of split over here on
Speaker 1: certain things. I was like, no, you know, I'm not
Speaker 1: a hater of pickle juice, but you, Caitlin, you did
Speaker 1: say something very interesting when you heard the phrase pickled
Speaker 1: juice lemonade.
Speaker 2: Pickle juice lemonade, And I said, isn't that kombucha.
Speaker 1: We're fucking back, y'all.
Speaker 3: Let them know where are we at? Here we go
Speaker 3: She said, hang it in the it hang that one
Speaker 3: in the louver.
Speaker 2: Yeah, veno five dollars right now.
Speaker 1: Well, so I can buy eggs, thank you man. We
Speaker 1: need at least five thousand dollars for one egg. So
Speaker 1: apparently they're like reviews are coming in. People are saying
Speaker 1: it's it's actually the best thing they've launched since the
Speaker 1: chicken sandwich. That's high praise.
Speaker 2: Look, how do you feel about pickles? I like pickles,
Speaker 2: like a sweet any kind.
Speaker 1: I like them all. Like in Japan it's called skimonal,
Speaker 1: Like there's Japanese pickled vegetables. I like pickle, I like
Speaker 1: I like kimchi, I like fucking pickles, dill half sours
Speaker 1: and whatever.
Speaker 2: Okay, see, I'm a big I really am into the
Speaker 2: dill variety mostly, but I love a pickle on like
Speaker 2: a chicken sandwich. So it makes sense that Popeyes is
Speaker 2: doing this. I'll try the pickle lemonade. I don't care.
Speaker 1: I don't care.
Speaker 2: I don't even care anymore.
Speaker 1: You just going to Popeyes? Yeah, give me the pickle
Speaker 1: Lemonade's like, I don't even.
Speaker 2: Care, I don't care anymore.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay, are you? What does it fucking matter?
Speaker 1: Give me the fucking pickle lemonade. I'm fucked.
Speaker 2: And then I like pissed my pants a little bit
Speaker 2: and burst into tears, and we and we.
Speaker 1: It's the birth of a new phrase, ma'am, this is
Speaker 1: a Popeyes and away we went.
Speaker 2: And then do that, I respond, I don't even care, I.
Speaker 1: Don't fucking care. Give me the kumbucha.
Speaker 2: Oh that's you, okay, Oh my gosh, I can't roastie
Speaker 2: to be the new meme like the kumbucha'ch a equal lemonade.
Speaker 1: Lady Brittany Broski see has a pretty funny show. Got
Speaker 1: to say, Um, that usually doesn't happen with people that
Speaker 1: become memes. They actually have a bit of funny in
Speaker 1: them anyway. So what look y'all, this is our homework
Speaker 1: this weekend? Going to Pope's. I don't even fucking care. Man,
Speaker 1: excise me a fucking lemon. I don't even what the
Speaker 1: fuck is this, and then pay for it and leave
Speaker 1: before you get it.
Speaker 2: But pay for it in or or wheat from cattan.
Speaker 1: Money post yourself doing it, and you will get free
Speaker 1: tickets to the next Bechdel cast live show or the
Speaker 1: next day. He's like, no, I can't, I can't promise that.
Speaker 1: Let's leak. That's I think it's illegal. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Elon must just gave people a million dollars to vote,
Speaker 1: so the fuck is legal anymore.
Speaker 2: I'm too sick with vitamin a poisoning, so I don't
Speaker 2: even know anymore.
Speaker 1: Please put that vitamin a down statement. Uh well, thank
Speaker 1: you Caitlyn for joining me on this trending episode. Guys,
Speaker 1: we have a fucking banger episode tomorrow me Caitlin and
Speaker 1: a very familiar your face from Twitter. If you're like
Speaker 1: on political Twitter, leftist Twitter. It's gonna be a fun one.
Speaker 1: And yeah, until then, be good to yourselves, be good
