Speaker 1: Who are they going to give it instead? What means

35
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: the relief right now? Is it corporate America or people? Well,

36
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: I mean I think we all know the answer to that. Also,

37
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: we'll be talking about the Texas Attorney General who filed

38
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: you know, that really weird lawsuit with the Supreme Court

39
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: and been like, I wonder is he dying of pardon thirst?

40
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: Is that what's going on? Could he be in some

41
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,839
Speaker 1: jeopardy and that's why he's legally self immolating in front

42
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: of everybody. We will dig into that. Also, yes, there

Speaker 1: name that when I say I'm my name is Michael,

64
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: people in New York then immediately call me some nickname

Speaker 1: I don't approve. I do not accept your nickname of me.

67
00:03:55,480 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: I'm Michael, and I like Michael. It is Mike as

68
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: a kid. And then I grew up and I said,

69
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: it's time to be Michael. I okay, I'm curious about

70
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: this is there was there that moment where you were like,

71
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: I don't feel like Mike anymore. I'm I think I

72
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 1: need to own the adult Michael. Now. I think I

73
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:19,280
Speaker 1: made a three pointer, you know, organized basketball game, and

74
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 1: I said, I'm now Michael, I can shoot deep. Mike

75
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: couldn't make that shot, Mike, Mike would would have would have,

76
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: you know, gone to the paint, gotten followed, missed both

77
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: free throws exactly. And I'm guessing so you're special Detroit,

78
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: New York l A um um. I know you're in

79
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: New York. Now, you said you've lived in Los Angeles. Uh,

80
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: tell me about Detroit. What's going on. Yeah, I'm from

81
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 1: ann Arbor, Michigan. So I started in the Detroit comedy scene,

82
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: and I wanted my special to follow my path. So

83
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: I want to take the viewers in the same path

84
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: I did. So we started this really great theater downtown Detroit,

85
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: and then we within ten minutes, I'm on a bicycle

86
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 1: in Manhattan going to the New York Comedy Club Grimy Gritty,

87
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: Damp Basement show, and then uh, twenty minutes later at

88
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: the Hollywood Improv off of Melrose Avenue. Three totally different places,

89
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: three totally different audiences, and I I just kind of

90
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: want the viewer to experience some of the nonsense that

91
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: we all go through as a stand up comic, right

92
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: right right. I'm so excited to see it. Yeah, I

93
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: think I love man. I've been in eight years, but

94
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 1: I want to go back. Yeah. It's wild to go

95
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 1: back now because you see a lot of construction, and

96
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 1: when I grew up there, you never saw construction. It

97
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: was like they had just given up on it. And

98
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,840
Speaker 1: now it's funny. I've never been happy to say, Oh good,

99
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 1: they're redoing the streets. This is a terribly inconvenient to

100
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 1: get around right now, but it means someone is putting

101
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,559
Speaker 1: some money and energy into this place, which is great

102
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:04,479
Speaker 1: infrastruct social list Anyway, Well, let's get into you, Michael

103
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 1: a little bit. Why don't you tell us something from

104
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 1: your search history that is revealing about who you are? Yeah,

105
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 1: you know, it really is revealing because the search is ready,

106
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 1: what is kink sex? Okay? Now, now, the reason it's

107
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:28,559
Speaker 1: revealing is because I'm close with my family. You're onto

108
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:33,039
Speaker 1: something and um my mom is a therapist and she

109
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: has a couple of new clients and I said, hey,

110
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: I was your new client today, and she said, well,

111
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: I had to google kink sex. And then I'm like,

112
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: what the fuck is king? I don't like, I don't

113
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: even know what that is. And I'm almost a certain

114
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: Mom is wrong about the terminology. So then I googled

115
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,160
Speaker 1: what she had said, and I just read that it's

116
00:06:55,200 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 1: basically like kinky sex, as m that I would be

117
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: really surprised if it ended up being something different. It

118
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 1: would be interesting. Wait, so that's what I thought. It's

119
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: just a general blanket. But then I'm like, why would

120
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: your client, Why wouldn't your client be more specific what

121
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 1: it is that he or she is into. So, I mean,

122
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: kin can mean a few different things for at least yes.

123
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: So was your mom like, so it was one of

124
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: those moments where you're like, I don't know if your

125
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 1: definition is the same one. So you had to sort

126
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: of like, let me just try and get find the

127
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: real answer. Was she insisting it was something specific or

128
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: she was like I don't know. I mean, I don't

129
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: know how you guys read your text messages from your parents,

130
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 1: but I am reading most of it going this is

131
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: a complete exaggerated nonsense. Okay, So like when my mom,

132
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: like when my mom texts me, hey, our neighbor says

133
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 1: your Comedy Central special isn't showing up on the guide,

134
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: I go europe, old woman who doesn't understand anything. And

135
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: then I find out that it's actually correct and this

136
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: is a problem and I have to reach out to

137
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: the comedy network because it's not showing up on the guy.

138
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: But um, so I just thought she was kind of

139
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: like not pulling the wrong terminology, which I kind of

140
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: still feel like she was. I was hoping I was

141
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: going to Google and be like, kink sex is when

142
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: this happens. This happens, but it's not. It's a very

143
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: it's a wide umbrella. So I appreciate you guys reaffirming

144
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: that for me. Yeah, exactly. It's when you're blasting the

145
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: album albums of the Kinks while in bed. I could

146
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: also see a patient kind of like getting nervous and

147
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: cutting themselves off before getting too specific. They're like, you know,

148
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: kinky sex and then seeing whatever facial expression your mom

149
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: made have been like I think of him A move on. Yeah,

150
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 1: I've definitely done that before before I get too with

151
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: the therapist and like, I don't think, I don't know.

152
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 1: I don't have time to I can't. I'm paying a

153
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: lot for this and I can don't have time to

154
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 1: burn time explaining to you what I'm talking about. It's

155
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: funny when you get a new therapist and you're expanding

156
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: a lot of energy being like how am I going

157
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 1: to present this to this person? And then I'm already

158
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 1: burning myself out trying to describe something I'm working on

159
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 1: and trying to be like I think I'm being judged,

160
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: and they like, wait, I'm in therapy, so I loaded

161
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 1: I loaded the gun with a full clip. You know what,

162
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: I'm just going to move on to a new story

163
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 1: because because we do judge their face, we assess their

164
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,199
Speaker 1: face and go, oh, they are judging me. Of all

165
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: the people they talked to today, I get the face

166
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,719
Speaker 1: they think I'm a loser. That's my greatest fear in

167
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 1: this life. Why am I getting the face? Michael, what's

168
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 1: something that you think is underrated? Well? I was gonna

169
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: say silence, and then I thought that that's probably like

170
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: a hacky answer, and then I said, you know what,

171
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna let Miles and Jamie intimidate me with

172
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:57,839
Speaker 1: my answer and what I've been known to do. I

173
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,079
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of silence. I think it's harder

174
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 1: and harder to get it. I believe in noise pollution.

175
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: I think I would love it if we could backtrack

176
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: on the key fobs to check if your car is locked.

177
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: I mean everybody is over clicking. Yeah, I'm guilty of that.

178
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: It's like I needed to honk three times. Why, you're

179
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,079
Speaker 1: a smart guy, would yeah. I think it's just this

180
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 1: like it's like a thing where you're just like because

181
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: I've had you know, I've just had ship stolen out

182
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: of my car once before us or maybe a couple

183
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 1: of times, but where I'm like make sure. But I

184
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,439
Speaker 1: know at a certain point, like I was like, I

185
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: think I need to find a way to for it

186
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: to not do the horn. I know, but it would

187
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 1: be nice if they gave us options if it's just

188
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: it's just the lights flashed or something, and for all them,

189
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: I just did the headlight light flash with my hand. Yes,

190
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: when we all know that, we want to say the

191
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 1: picture for the listeners, the hand choreography was next level.

192
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 1: We definitely appreciate that. But yeah, like news, I'm sure

193
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: for you noise pollution living in the city that never sleeps,

194
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: what is like, are you finding waste? Yeah? I just

195
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: kind of made that up, I think, But is there

196
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: is there like do you find yourself doing things to

197
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 1: create sort of that atmosphere for yourself or you just

198
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: kind of experience it and being like, damn, I wish

199
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: quite quiet is way better than this ship. I find

200
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: now that even when I go home to Michigan, it's

201
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:25,079
Speaker 1: like I can never not hear a leafblower then and

202
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: like now when I sit in my uh tiny living

203
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: room in New York. I'm like always hearing the refrigerator

204
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,559
Speaker 1: or I'm always hearing a car drive by. And so

205
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: maybe what I'm discovering through this conversation is it's not

206
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 1: that I find silence is underrated. It's that I maybe

207
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,439
Speaker 1: like I have a too high a sensitivity to noise

208
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 1: or something, especially like mechanical compressors. It seems like a

209
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: mechanical really well, especially if you don't have access to silence,

210
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: that like makes it all the more valuable because you're like, well,

211
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: I couldn't even have it if I wanted it. This

212
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: thing that we should all sort of have access to

213
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: struggle with, Like silence makes me tense up in a

214
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: way that I'm like, I should probably do some work

215
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 1: on that. But I always like maybe as I grew

216
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 1: up with like my parents watching TV while I went

217
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:19,959
Speaker 1: to sleep, so just some background noise feels comfortable. And

218
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: so when actual, like when true silence happens, it's I

219
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,199
Speaker 1: love that when it's so quiet it's fucking loud as

220
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 1: ship and you're like, yeah, to the desert and ship,

221
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: when you're just like I'm not hearing it things, there's

222
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: something to that. Yet space must space, Like did I

223
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 1: hear something. You heard literally absolutely nothing, and you're gonna

224
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: die now. I think Jamie, you hit it right because

225
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: my father I grew up in a home where commercials

226
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 1: were on bang mute. If you had something in your

227
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,199
Speaker 1: hand and you were kind of like fidgeting, my dad

228
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: would grab it and we go, we're gonna put that down.

229
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,599
Speaker 1: It's gonna be quiet now. So I'm just like, I

230
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 1: just got my dad in my head, see value silence,

231
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: that's right. And now they're coming, our parents, and there's

232
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,959
Speaker 1: church bells behind me right now, and it's and I'm

233
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 1: furious about it. And you're like, hey, Christ, pipe down

234
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: for a second birthday coming up. Um Christ, I've been

235
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: saying this for years. Jesus Christ is taking up too

236
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: much space, I think, so, yes, he needs to make

237
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,839
Speaker 1: more space for people. Yeah, it makes space, Jesus. I

238
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: mean the Crucifix game is so congested it can only

239
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 1: mean really, um, think of the other people. But yeah,

240
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,079
Speaker 1: the other thing I found myself doing the lockdown. I

241
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 1: said this very early on the lockdown was just like

242
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 1: this app called Portal because it's just like three D

243
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 1: nature atmospheres and I have like noise canceling headphones that

244
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: I wear that with and it's like reading a book

245
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,079
Speaker 1: or anything else is so much more pleasant, especially like

246
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: when you're in a very you know, condensed packed urban areas.

247
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'll way, but but even noise canceling headphones

248
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 1: like they kind of have some thing they do they

249
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 1: like shoot out white noise or something. And and so look,

250
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: this is something that has been in my brain for

251
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: a while. And that's why you know, I was like,

252
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: do I disclose such a personal item to the Daily Zeitgeist?

253
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 1: And I did? And I don't want you to judge

254
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: me on this, but let's how about this. Let's reevaluate

255
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: what silence means to all of us and try to

256
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 1: be more comfortable in silence. And that's what my goal

257
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 1: is this week. I love I just brought that down. Michael.

258
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: All right, now, let's move on to something that you

259
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 1: think is overrated. I think there's two much fried chicken.

260
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 1: I feel like, I feel like every restaurant's got a

261
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 1: fried chicken sandwich, now hot chicken. I feel like Kale

262
00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 1: hired this publicist fifteen years ago, and then Truffle Mac

263
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: and Cheese hired the same publicist, And I feel like

264
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: fried chicken then hired that publicist as well. I think

265
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 1: I think it should be exceptional when you have it,

266
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: but you shouldn't have it as often as it's being presented.

267
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: That's it. You can't look look, that's it. Okay, that's it.

268
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: The dealers out. Sorry, shift changed, I got nothing more.

269
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, that l A is it? Like it

270
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: happened in such a violent way, right it was. Holland

271
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 1: Rays came and everyone's like, because you know, I get it.

272
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: All these food trends are like sort of offshoots of

273
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 1: some guy fiery thing, like you go on, you watch

274
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: a food travel show and you're like, man, in Nashville,

275
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: they got this ship called hot Chicken, and for me,

276
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 1: I love fried chicken, I love spicy food. It's the

277
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: intersection of one of the two most important culinary roads

278
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 1: in my life at the moment. So I was like, yes,

279
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 1: fuck yes. Holland Rays opens up in l A. And

280
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: the line is like seventeen hours, and that's que for

281
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: the rest of the city to be like, all right,

282
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: I think this is what everyone needs to pivot to.

283
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 1: And I think I'm not joking. In the valley, I

284
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: think there's like forty two hot chicken places now that

285
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: have popped up instantly. We went on like a drive

286
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 1: the I forget why we had to drive across the

287
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: city this week, but it was like so many places

288
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: had popped up since I last drove all the way

289
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 1: across the city six months ago. You're like, it's even

290
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 1: going to these places like I used to be a

291
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: Washington mutual, Like wasn't that a public library at one point?

292
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: But now it's a really expensive chicken restaurant. I may

293
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 1: have I may have mixed up overrated with oversaturated, but

294
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: I would also argue that maybe those are parallel that

295
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: I think. So that exists, and what's the next? What's next?

296
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: Like you know, you you guys live in l A.

297
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 1: You know, no one ever creates the new thing. You

298
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 1: just make another of the thing that was first and successful.

299
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: So I'm always thinking, like, Okay, we had truffle mac

300
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: and cheese or truffle seems to be everywhere. I thought

301
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: truffle was a delicacy. It's everywhere. Um understand what it means?

302
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:06,400
Speaker 1: Something is truffle. What are they saying? It's just because truffle. Yeah,

303
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 1: Like it's like a you know, like a mushroom basically

304
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: just a flavor, and it's it's the umami of it,

305
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,479
Speaker 1: and it takes like Okay, I don't even know if

306
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,680
Speaker 1: I can swear on this podcast, but you can when

307
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: we talk about truffle sh Okay, get that shitty truffle

308
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: out of my fucking face right now, because and I

309
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 1: think the other thing that's expensive, like it takes pigs

310
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 1: to find them, like they have to like they have

311
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:31,680
Speaker 1: to find them under the ground. Yeah, like they're hard

312
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: to dig up. And then I remember, like on the

313
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 1: Vice Channel like years ago, was like spending a day

314
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 1: with like Manhattan's like truffle Dealer King and it's like

315
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: this weirdest ship and you guys like yeah, yeah, I

316
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: can get you that, but that's gonna be about five

317
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: grand right there. And it's like this like Wall Street

318
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,360
Speaker 1: yuppie drug dealer vibe. It's so stupid. I would watch

319
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: a cartoon about truffle pigs. That's that's more interesting. Oh yeah, right, yeah,

320
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,120
Speaker 1: I think there's more of there's definitely like a pair

321
00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 1: of like a sort of allegory to like working class

322
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 1: corporate work relations with like truffle pigs. Do it like

323
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 1: extracting from the earth these things these other people over

324
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 1: value and they're like, why do we have to do this? Done? Done, Jamie,

325
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 1: get on it? In Capital, isn't alright perfect? Is there?

326
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 1: Like in in New York? Are you like is I'm

327
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 1: guessing fried chicken is basically everywhere as well? Are you

328
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: seeing other? And and you know, I went out to

329
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 1: dinner last night, and by out to dinner, I mean

330
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:33,120
Speaker 1: sat in the street and someone had built a shoddy

331
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,439
Speaker 1: outdoor home depot two by four with some plastic as

332
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,399
Speaker 1: I just froze, you know, um. And I know this

333
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 1: must be hard for you guys in l A to

334
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,919
Speaker 1: hear about such a thing, but we have outdoor dining

335
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 1: here kind of. But people, you know, no one has

336
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 1: any money. No restaurant has like extra money line around

337
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 1: after seven months of nobody going to a restaurant. So

338
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: they've built these like outdoor space. So I'm sitting there

339
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: and I'm looking at the menu and it's just like

340
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 1: it was just it's fried chicken. The waiters like, you

341
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 1: gotta get the fried chicken. It's so good, and I'm

342
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:07,400
Speaker 1: just like it's always the same goodness. It's just everywhere.

343
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 1: What's the next sandwich? You tell me? I'd love to

344
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 1: know what the next one is. It's kind of the

345
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: sort of thing where every time a food trend like

346
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 1: this happens, I get annoyed with it in the moment,

347
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: but then when it's over, I get really sad. Remember

348
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 1: when you chicken anywhere right right, You're like to remember

349
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 1: cupcakes when they came out of a T M S.

350
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 1: Cupcakes were hot for for for a few minutes there.

351
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: I felt that way about frozen yogurt. I was like, man,

352
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,639
Speaker 1: when I was in college, there was a frozen yogurt

353
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 1: shop on every corner. And then I'm like, I found

354
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 1: five hundred years old like me and doo wop groups

355
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 1: when I was there on every fucking corner, you know

356
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,640
Speaker 1: what I mean. Yeah, I think the next food It's

357
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: always interesting to think of, like what the next ethnic

358
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: food trend is going to be, because like that's always

359
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 1: like the thing that like the trends happens, Like I

360
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: don't know if you guys have had Nepalese food before

361
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 1: and everyone's like, oh, you gotta have it, Like Taiwanese

362
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 1: food was becoming like in the East Side of l

363
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 1: A for a little bit. But yeah, I'm always the

364
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: the the kind of run Saracha's had has been interesting

365
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:14,159
Speaker 1: because you know, I remember always kind of enjoying Saracha,

366
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 1: feeling like maybe I knew something others didn't. And then

367
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 1: I was in Silver like one day and like I

368
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: saw a table of like six kids wearing a Saracha

369
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 1: T shirt right right, and I'm like, Okay, Saracha's coming gone.

370
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:28,440
Speaker 1: But it is an excellent sauce um. And but why

371
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: did it get so popular? Why did it pop off?

372
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: Maybe fried chicken? Maybe that's what hot fried chicken is?

373
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,119
Speaker 1: Is it? You never know? I think it's just like

374
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,119
Speaker 1: Saracha became one of those things that felt like exotic

375
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 1: but was available everywhere. And he was like, oh yeah,

376
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 1: that thing with the fucking rooster on it, that's good.

377
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: Oh I know that, and they buy it. A buddy

378
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 1: of mine like wrote the Saracha Cookbook like in like

379
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,680
Speaker 1: the early twenty tens or something, and it was it

380
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,440
Speaker 1: was purely like it was truly one of those things

381
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: that was like the hottest thing at an urban outfitters

382
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: during Christmas. You know, when it's like the Saracha fucking cookbook,

383
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,959
Speaker 1: Get the fucking y'all. Uh so shout out to him,

384
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 1: all right, let's take a quick break and we'll be

385
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:24,680
Speaker 1: back to talk some stories. And we're back and oh,

386
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: PLoP PLoP, fiz fiz where the relief is? Mitch McConnell, Okay,

387
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:32,959
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just I just vibe that one

388
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 1: out off the off the cuff right there. I was

389
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: just feeling that one. But yeah, I appreciate it. I

390
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: liked the journey. We're looking for a relief bill, uh

391
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 1: to come out of the Senate's something that acknowledges that

392
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: people have only received one check from the federal government

393
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 1: throughout this entire lockdown. And you know, for whatever reason

394
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 1: that they're the Republicans are very much like, well, you know,

395
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,640
Speaker 1: who knows what it's gonna do, Like if it's good,

396
00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,919
Speaker 1: it's really really need that much? Like are these real

397
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 1: people even that exists? Like I thought poor people were

398
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: like a myth we made up to keep people in

399
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,200
Speaker 1: line with capitalism. I don't know, sure, go back to

400
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 1: the classic of like I'm pretty sure most of these

401
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 1: people have died. No no, no, no, no, no, they're

402
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: going to die. I don't do anything. Got mixed up? Yeah, um, yeah,

403
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 1: And you know, I think the refrain from the entire

404
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 1: country at the moment is asking, begging the question, where

405
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: is the relief? Where are these checks going, when are

406
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 1: they coming? What is happening with this these negotiations in

407
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: the Senate? And you know, I think we're looking at, well,

408
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 1: who's getting the relief? Who is who is Mitch McConnell

409
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,880
Speaker 1: going to ride for in this instance. And he's made

410
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 1: it clear since the fucking be like the first relief

411
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: bill was coming out, he is very concerned about the

412
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:50,199
Speaker 1: liability of companies more than anything. That is his biggest

413
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,199
Speaker 1: concern and at the moment, that is what's holding up

414
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,920
Speaker 1: the negotiations. Um, you know they're saying that right now.

415
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 1: McConnell is like the offer from the republic canes how

416
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:05,359
Speaker 1: about an eighteen month federal shield on coronavirus litigation Meaning

417
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 1: if you were if you were so fucking greedy that

418
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: you harmed your employees in the pursuit of money, Um,

419
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: guess what, they can't sue you because you were acting. Yeah,

420
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: And so that's the current hill that Republicans are choosing

421
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,719
Speaker 1: to kill the country on. That's wild because a lot

422
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 1: of that is meat packing. M Remember, like Trump declared

423
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 1: meet emergency or whatever the hell it was. And then

424
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: all these more or less illegal immigrants who work and

425
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 1: packed the meat, all who were forced to go to

426
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: work and get sick, and then now they have even

427
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 1: less legal rights to like, you know, do anything anything. Yeah,

428
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 1: when you look in places like I think it was

429
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 1: like one of those Tyson processing plants to where the

430
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: executives were what they were telling the translation staff because

431
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 1: like you're saying, there's a lot of people who are

432
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,439
Speaker 1: coming into work that aren't speaking English, so they actually

433
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: need to deploy translators on the processing floor to communicate

434
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: to the workers. They were saying, don't talk about COVID

435
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: to anyone down there, just like they would when they

436
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 1: did speak to a journalist. They're like, I noticed that

437
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 1: the person who stood next to my left for eleven

438
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,920
Speaker 1: straight years, like went away for four days, and like

439
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,800
Speaker 1: because that person was sick and died. I mean it's

440
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 1: like it's also I can order nine packs of chicken

441
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: breasts because oh no, the pandemics coming. I want to

442
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 1: have food in my freezer. Uh yeah, it was. I

443
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: didn't realize that that's what McConnell was held up over.

444
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 1: Now that's mess, I mean, right now, you know, his

445
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,400
Speaker 1: first the first thing he wanted, like earlier this year,

446
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 1: he was asking for a five fucking year period of

447
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 1: liability protection for businesses, schools, healthcare providers, and other organisms

448
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: and other organizations because you know, like we're saying this

449
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 1: whole lockdown or don't lock down, open up, we need

450
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 1: to earn. It's all based around this thing, is that

451
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,679
Speaker 1: no company or the federal government is willing to actually

452
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,879
Speaker 1: subsidize lost wages or these other things to get people

453
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,719
Speaker 1: to comply to actually get a hold on this thing.

454
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 1: So people's only recourse is to go to work and

455
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 1: possibly get sick and work for a boss who's not

456
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 1: going to be in there because they're not gonna get

457
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: fucking sick. But you damn sure better clock in because

458
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 1: I need to see money in the til by the

459
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,479
Speaker 1: end of the day. So as it stands right now, uh,

460
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 1: it doesn't look good for Americans because you know, until

461
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 1: they can guarantee that they're the wealthy aren't going to

462
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: be held accountable. It seems like that's the you know,

463
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 1: that's the biggest impass at the moment. And like we

464
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: were talking about yesterday, I mean, it just already seems

465
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,640
Speaker 1: pretty unlikely that Biden administration is going to do much

466
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 1: to progress that and do much to progress you know,

467
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,640
Speaker 1: any labor movement in any meaningful way because the um

468
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 1: because the cabinet is already stacked with billionaires and people

469
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 1: who represent billion dollar companies and so it's just very

470
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 1: bleak extreme. Yeah, and it's just it's a tough it's

471
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 1: just such a really fucked up thing to just behold

472
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: when you're like, Wow, we're really here because Mitch McConnell's

473
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: like prose companies from getting shood for being just you know,

474
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 1: pathologically greedy to the point that it's causing death. Uh So, yeah,

475
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 1: welcome to America. Let's move on to Texas and the

476
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 1: attorney general there, Ken Paxton, who he was. He caused

477
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 1: a lot of shock waves last week, um when he

478
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 1: went straight to the Supreme Court and was like, uh,

479
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: here's the deal, essentially, like without getting into the legal eaves,

480
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: because I don't even think there was any legal ease

481
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 1: in the complaint or the lawsuit he filed his whole

482
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 1: complaint of trying to overturn the election with a few

483
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 1: other attorneys general's. Attorneys general were that he was saying

484
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 1: specifically dear Supreme Court, Um, Texas wanted Trump and these

485
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:02,479
Speaker 1: other swing states that let Joe Einen win because they

486
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 1: wanted to like make voting easier in a pandemic that

487
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:10,919
Speaker 1: actually violated the desires of the people of Texas. Um,

488
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 1: so you need to overturn the entire election. And even

489
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 1: like Samuel Alito was like, what is what does that

490
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 1: even mean? Dude, It's just yeah, that's like a waste.

491
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: I mean, not that any of these have not been

492
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 1: a waste of time, but this is a this is

493
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 1: a special waste of time. Yeah, absolutely, And it's it's

494
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,159
Speaker 1: it's just a really you know that that that's the

495
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 1: nature of the current lawsuits that are just getting body

496
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: slammed by judges. Yeah, I mean, it's it seems it's weird.

497
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 1: Every time I think that they're starting to kind of

498
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 1: die down, and then it's like, okay, someone's gonna just

499
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:48,880
Speaker 1: taken oil finally, Um there's there's three more. And it's

500
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,239
Speaker 1: a way it's I've honestly stopped keeping up with them

501
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 1: because we're like, well, none of these are going to

502
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 1: fucking go anywhere, knock on wood, right, But it's just

503
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 1: it's sad. It's pathetic make me sad, Well, it's it's

504
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,360
Speaker 1: all so, it's it's it's has this weird effective being

505
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 1: like we're laughing at the coup, but like not being

506
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 1: like no, there, this is like this is a this

507
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 1: is an indicator of how bad things are actually even

508
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: though that's all you got, it's like, yeah, but they're

509
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 1: trying it. This is new, They're trying this nonsense. Yeah,

510
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 1: I mean it's like after the year that we're having.

511
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 1: It's it is like just so it just makes my

512
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: heart sink when you're like it's good news when you say,

513
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 1: like the coup is failing, like that's where we're at.

514
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 1: Is it a is it a potential feeling of optimism

515
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: because some of the checks and balances are working, Like

516
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 1: part of me, part of me was thinking, hey, I'm

517
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 1: not going to pay attention to this bullshit because it's

518
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 1: it's bullshit. But then I was like, well wait, stuff.

519
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 1: That's how like stuff sneaks up on you and all

520
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: of a sudden, we have Donald Trump for another four years.

521
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 1: But I'm like kind of pumped that some of these

522
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: federal judges who more or less have been appointed by

523
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 1: Republican president are are giving it an L So that

524
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: made me happy a little bit. Yeah, no, I think

525
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 1: that's the like. And at that point it's like, Okay,

526
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 1: those institutions held up, but we're also seeing that there

527
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 1: it's like anything like they're hacking the law in a

528
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 1: way of like, well, that didn't work. Let's try this version,

529
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: like of like brute force ways of trying to use

530
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 1: her name and password where it might work at some point,

531
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 1: But I think the real alarm should be like, okay,

532
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 1: we actually need to we need better safeguards around this.

533
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 1: It's like relying on Yeah, it's like, oh good, our

534
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 1: backup parachute worked, and you're like, what happened to the

535
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 1: first parachute? Why did they get pushed out of a plane? Backup?

536
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: Like I would rather not have to use the backup? Well,

537
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 1: hold on, because before this, and if I recall, I

538
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: was eating hot chicken at a restaurant and then someone

539
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 1: put an ether rag over my mouth and then I

540
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 1: awoke to being pushed out of a plane in which

541
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: my first shot didn't work. And now you're saying, good

542
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 1: thing my backup. So I'm grateful that you know I'm

543
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 1: not dead, But it was regardless, we were pushed out

544
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: of a plane. Yeah, shouldn't we do something about that?

545
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 1: I think you're missing the point here. You're good, that'll

546
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 1: just happen. That happen. What about next time? Who knows

547
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: it will be next time? Um? But yeah, this guy

548
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: Ken Paxton, he is he's actually he's quite literally currently

549
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 1: under indictment for securities fraud that was happening back in

550
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 1: So you know, it's hard to look at somebody or

551
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: like well, I mean, maybe that's just a one off.

552
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 1: Maybe he's he's actually suing and having this ludicrous lawsuit

553
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 1: because he believes this is what the Constitution should be.

554
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: I mean, in the beginning of his lawsuit, he starts

555
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 1: off saying, quote, our country stands at an important crossroads.

556
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 1: Either the Constitution matters and must be followed even when

557
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: some officials considered inconvenient or out of date, or it

558
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 1: is simply a piece of parchment on display at the

559
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: National Archives. We asked the court to choose the former.

560
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: Oh that, like what your argument is that people made

561
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 1: it easier? Okay, sir, thank you. We've had enough of that. Um.

562
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: And he was shooting shoot out of the building. Um.

563
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: But as you sort of like look on uh like like,

564
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 1: why do this because we know why Rudy Giuliani has

565
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: been going on and he's making twenty dollars a day

566
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 1: and he needs a pardon when all of a said

567
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 1: and done, so we're like, yeah, this Guy's gonna do

568
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: whatever he can to stay in Trump's good graces. And

569
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: Ken Paxton, I mean, look, is he Are the FEDS

570
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 1: watching him or something? Oh? I think they actually are.

571
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 1: He is under investigation by the FBI. Ken Paxston was

572
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 1: just subpoena U for his personal records because of bribery

573
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: claims for tat this the one that is under indictment

574
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 1: for securities fraud him. Um. This all comes because his

575
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: staff raised like alarm bells back in October because they

576
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: were saying he was making moves to help this guy

577
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 1: Nate Paul. Not really to Jake Paul. I don't think um,

578
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 1: who is an Austin interest is still sinister amoutter no

579
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 1: matter what. UM. And it's like a huge donor like

580
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 1: he got like twenty five tho dollars from him from

581
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 1: him and then apparently Ken Paxton hired like an outside

582
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 1: lawyer to investigate this donor's claims that the FBI, like

583
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: fucked up the raid on his house in office last year,

584
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 1: and like, so ship should be negated. So he he

585
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: really went through with that, and also says that, um,

586
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,960
Speaker 1: one of the guys this donor employed, there was a

587
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 1: woman that he employs. The Attorney General had an affair

588
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 1: with this woman and then also like recommended her for

589
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 1: a job like high up somewhere else. So the whistle

590
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 1: blower lawsuit is becoming very huge. Um So, I can't

591
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 1: imagine that any scrutiny from the FEDS would motivate this

592
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: kind of nonsense from him. No, it's interesting to see

593
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 1: Ken Paxson. Okay, fine, I guess I'll I guess I'll

594
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 1: pay attention to this story. Fine, I mean don't have

595
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 1: to in this sense. Somewhere legally, I mean truly, like legally,

596
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: the options are running out. The cracking lawsuits with Sydney Powell.

597
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't even believe I'm giving it the

598
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 1: dignity of calling them the cracking lawsuits. But the cracking

599
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:14,000
Speaker 1: that was released has been fully shoved back down into

600
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: the sea to never emerge again. Um So, I think

601
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: that's again another reason. You know, a lot of people

602
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: are curious now that the legal routes are exhausted. What

603
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 1: Trump pivot to um because his desire to upend things?

604
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 1: I don't think it's and and was all this legal

605
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 1: just him buying himself time right, makes you know, some

606
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: other sinister plan, figuring out his pardons, distracting the media

607
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 1: so he could do whatever is next. I do think,

608
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, he doesn't want to lose. No one

609
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 1: wants to lose. Maybe he thought he could win. But

610
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: I do think some of these legal nonsense was like

611
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: him figuring out what he's supposed to do now, you know,

612
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: buying himself some time. Yeah. Absolutely, And it seems like

613
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 1: even the way he was hiring lawyers, it was like

614
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 1: straight improv It's like, I'm sorry, who's willing to debase

615
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 1: themselves in front of a judge? Four Seasons Total Landscaping

616
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 1: was like, yo, we have we have to do a

617
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 1: press conference now. And I mean, to me, that was

618
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 1: that was like, yo, I'm jingled the keys, so we

619
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 1: and media all like look that way, and I'm like

620
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 1: trying to go what is going on over here? Like

621
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 1: why are they doing a press conference at four Seasons

622
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 1: Total Landscaping? Well, Miles, I think it was you a

623
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago on the show, like who brought

624
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 1: up like that Steve Bannon theory of just spewing as

625
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 1: much ship as you possibly can and the New cycle too, Yeah,

626
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 1: just to just to kill what I mean, that's I'm

627
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,320
Speaker 1: assuming maybe this is too generous, but I'm assuming that

628
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 1: that's what Juliani has been doing. That's what I mean,

629
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 1: that's what a lot of people have been doing, to

630
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 1: just flood the New cycle with as much ship as

631
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 1: possible and then to make it as difficult as you

632
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,240
Speaker 1: can to figure out what the what is the important

633
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 1: story or any of us who've worked on a day rate,

634
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,000
Speaker 1: we're just trying to justify a twenty K day right

635
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 1: every day. Like, dude, I was out there, man, you

636
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 1: saw me. I got that woman who was you know,

637
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,840
Speaker 1: maybe sipping on something before that hearing in Michigan. But

638
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 1: it's all good. Um. But yeah, so we'll we'll see.

639
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I think at the end of the day,

640
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 1: like this lawsuit is basically like a very like soft

641
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,919
Speaker 1: civil war attempt. Essentially, we're like, as this state over here,

642
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:25,239
Speaker 1: I'm trying to fuck over nine other states. It's like huh,

643
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 1: but you know, they'll keep trying, and I think it's

644
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 1: something to really keep an eye on because you know,

645
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 1: we as that one article in the Atlantic. It's like

646
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 1: we don't have the nuanced language in this country or

647
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,839
Speaker 1: imagination to describe these kinds of power grabs because we've

648
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: been so used to like the pomp and circumstance and

649
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 1: formalities of being like yes and gentleman's yes. So maybe

650
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 1: I will maybe only committed to light funckery during that election.

651
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 1: But a win's a win, you know, like we we're

652
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 1: still kind of stuck there, so yeah, we've got to

653
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:55,960
Speaker 1: be able to call a coup a coup, even if

654
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 1: it's a bullshit one. Uh. And next, I just want

655
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: to talk about Disney really quick because I they had

656
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,960
Speaker 1: this announcement and it like consumed half of like entertainment

657
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: Twitter because they have had like your shareholder meeting or whatever,

658
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 1: or they're just sort of announcing what some of the

659
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 1: bigger plans are. And I think because they own like

660
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 1: seventy of the I P that does like numbers in

661
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 1: the theaters and on TV, kind of we kind of

662
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 1: need to see what's going on. Um, and it's it's

663
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 1: interest like the biggest thing I think that people were

664
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 1: curious about, was what was going to happen with Black

665
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: Panther two because Chadwick Boseman passed away and they were like,

666
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 1: at this thing, they said, they have confirmed quote honoring

667
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:41,240
Speaker 1: Chadwick Boseman's legacy and portrayal of ta Challa, Marvel Studios

668
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,839
Speaker 1: will not recast the character, but will explore the world

669
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: of Waconda and the rich characters introducing the film blah

670
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 1: blah blah, because there were talks of like digitizing him

671
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,400
Speaker 1: and I mean, I mean that's what happened to Carrie

672
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,839
Speaker 1: Fisher in like the back half of the Star Wars

673
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 1: movies that were filmed actor she passed away. I I

674
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 1: I never know how to feel about that decision. I'm like,

675
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 1: I guess, I I guess I don't feel one way

676
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 1: or another about it. Is it a respect thing or

677
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:09,479
Speaker 1: is it more of like for me as a viewer,

678
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 1: it looks weird and I know it's digital, so I

679
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,320
Speaker 1: don't like it. Yeah, yeah, that's what. I don't know

680
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:20,200
Speaker 1: what uncomfortable. But was Black Panther two shooting already when

681
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,800
Speaker 1: Tradwick Boseman passed away. I guess I don't really understand

682
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 1: at what point in the timeline, Um, everything like everything

683
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 1: kind of shifted, like was he almost done shooting? Because

684
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 1: that would make more sense to me if if he

685
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 1: had shot quite a bit of it before you, if

686
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 1: you were shooting and worked on the film. I understand,

687
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 1: and I think it's kind and respectful to try to

688
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 1: put that actor in the movie. But controversial statement coming up.

689
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:52,800
Speaker 1: I believe that life is for the living, and to

690
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 1: just bring him back as a digital because we like

691
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 1: him so much, I said, give that opportunity to another

692
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,800
Speaker 1: young actor. It's uh, that's what I would say. But

693
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:07,239
Speaker 1: if I just canceled myself, bring it on. This guy says,

694
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 1: let living actor portray someone. Well, I mean yeah, because

695
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,440
Speaker 1: on one hand, they're like, we want to honor the

696
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 1: contribution to the character, and like I get that, Like

697
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,279
Speaker 1: you know, especially like with fandoms, like there's a lot

698
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: of the we sanctify the people who are playing these characters.

699
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,879
Speaker 1: So on one hand, I get that, I feel like, yeah,

700
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 1: it's it would definitely be too soon to recast it.

701
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 1: I don't think it's like you can never recast again.

702
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,319
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't really believe in that. To your point,

703
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,920
Speaker 1: those would be some big shoes to try to follow.

704
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,239
Speaker 1: I'm not saying something act just gonna like love the

705
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 1: idea of it would almost be like, yeah, I don't

706
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,719
Speaker 1: know who would want to Yeah, but I was trying

707
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 1: to think of comparable situations where there was I did

708
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:55,799
Speaker 1: not watch this movie, but the movie the last movie

709
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 1: that he led your shot obviously not The Dark Knight.

710
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 1: The well it's like a toymaker or an inventor or

711
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: something like that. And he passed away halfway through the shoot.

712
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,839
Speaker 1: And then they Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus. Yeah, and then

713
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 1: and then they just sort of turned it into like

714
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 1: this multiverse where multiple people played that character, so they

715
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:18,320
Speaker 1: were able to use his footage, but there it was

716
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 1: also like became a collaborative effort that sort of celebrated him.

717
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know. I mean, they've made their decision,

718
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: so who fucking cares what I think? But well, they haven't.

719
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 1: I just looked. They haven't shot any black Panther toos.

720
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,480
Speaker 1: They have nothing's been shot yet, so there's no there

721
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:35,800
Speaker 1: is no footage to reckon with or anything like that.

722
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,320
Speaker 1: I mean, it's interesting that we can even have this

723
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,800
Speaker 1: discussion only because ten years ago this conversation would be

724
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,920
Speaker 1: basically impossible to have of like you wouldn't be able

725
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 1: to create a convincing enough digital um, you know, replica

726
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 1: of someone who's at that point, is it a Black

727
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: Panther film? You know what I mean? Like if we're

728
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 1: in the m c U and it is just about

729
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 1: Wakonda and other things, like do you ca all that

730
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: Black Panthers still? I mean, like that's for Ryan. I

731
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:05,759
Speaker 1: also think you can't computer generate a Chadwick Boseman performance

732
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 1: like that's he's amazing, like he was performance. I'm trying.

733
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:13,880
Speaker 1: I found I found the Carrie Fisher ones to be

734
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 1: really kind of like ghoulish and and scared. I didn't

735
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,400
Speaker 1: I don't know, it made me uncomfortable to watch because

736
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 1: I loved, like I like, you know, it's like these

737
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 1: are beloved performers, you know how they act in these parts.

738
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,000
Speaker 1: But and then when you see it digitally repeated and

739
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 1: you know that it just there's still that kind of dissonance, yeah,

740
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: because otherwise they would just do this for every actor

741
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,439
Speaker 1: like you. I don't know, I don't know, I'm I'm

742
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 1: I'm being digitized right now. But to your point, Miles,

743
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: I don't feel like this has been a great performance, right,

744
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 1: I disagree. I highly love so the other things that

745
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: are being announced. Nea da Costa is directing Captain Marvel too.

746
00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 1: She's directed Candy Man, I think or directed Candyman. And

747
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 1: then so Captain Marvel two is coming out. I love that.

748
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 1: I love the first one also because they shot one

749
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 1: of the scenes in a parking lot by my elementary

750
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 1: school that I grew up in North Hollywood, So shout

751
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:12,680
Speaker 1: out to that scene. Um. And then also the the

752
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:16,400
Speaker 1: like the reimagined Little Mermaid that is going they've already

753
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 1: been like okay, we're confirming, but reconfirming the actors. That

754
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 1: was the thing that had people all up in arms.

755
00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 1: It's like, it can't be a mermaid of color? What

756
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 1: the fund is this? And it's like, yeah, we'll buckle

757
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 1: the funk up, ignorant fox because mermaids are white. Yeah,

758
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:36,640
Speaker 1: like really that's the take that happened. People. People were

759
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:42,359
Speaker 1: piste off about that. It was it was like ridiculous, yeah,

760
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 1: because it's like what do you mean, like at what

761
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 1: point you know, like the sort of like original ship

762
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 1: head like internet trill logic of like, well that character

763
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 1: is white, so it should be white. It's like that,

764
00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 1: even that dumb logic, I can see the pathway there

765
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 1: and though it's absolutely stupid, but with like something like this,

766
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 1: it's like we're talking about a fucking mythical creature and

767
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 1: and a fucking car to like this, this being adapted

768
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 1: from a cartoon, Like what kind of like I think

769
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: it could be? Like people for red Hair, they feel

770
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,319
Speaker 1: like maybe it's a racer, you know what I mean,

771
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 1: because Ariel's iconic, uh with the red hair. But at

772
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:27,840
Speaker 1: that point, like really, yes, like serious, that's bullshit. That

773
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:32,799
Speaker 1: was such a frustrating, um frustrating controversy because it kept

774
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 1: going and going and going and going, and it's like everyone,

775
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 1: fucking chill out. All the live action reboots suck anyways,

776
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:46,840
Speaker 1: Like like just shut up. She's Lando Calarisian Donald Glover

777
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 1: is coming back to play Young Lando because they're going

778
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,040
Speaker 1: to have a series for Disney. Plus. I know that

779
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 1: was like a rumor, but you know, I like to

780
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,239
Speaker 1: see that. And then the other one, WHOOPI Goldberg she

781
00:42:55,320 --> 00:43:00,959
Speaker 1: teased it but sister Act three in development and premier. Yeah,

782
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,839
Speaker 1: I mean, is Kathy Nagimie going to be in it too?

783
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:09,239
Speaker 1: Is Maggie. What's her name is? Professor McGonagall? Whoever the fuck? Oh?

784
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 1: Max ms Smith, that's right, she said. I mean she's kicking.

785
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,840
Speaker 1: Maybe she'll come back. Damn. Yeah, I know we're like

786
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 1: will those elderly people also be in? Was sister act

787
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 1: I for? Why was she she was disguising herself as

788
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 1: a nun? Correct, Yes, she was on the run. She

789
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:40,320
Speaker 1: was like the run right from what god generally unsavory characters.

790
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:44,000
Speaker 1: I feel like it was like my recollection was that

791
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 1: something happened where like someone she was in a relationship

792
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 1: with did something illegal, and that she had to be like,

793
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 1: her identity had to be protected. She didn't do anything,

794
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:55,240
Speaker 1: but she like was close with someone who did something.

795
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:59,319
Speaker 1: The classic plot of every great movie, which is your

796
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 1: living your life as a quirky character until you witness

797
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:08,640
Speaker 1: a murderer run. That's what it was. She saw her

798
00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 1: boyfriend kill a fucking snitch. That's what it was. I mean, exactly,

799
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 1: why wasn't called like snitch to act or something? Let

800
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,600
Speaker 1: people know, like this is actually a movie about snitching.

801
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 1: But yeah, her name Dolores Vancardier. Remember that, Oh my god,

802
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,839
Speaker 1: that's a perfect character name. Yeah, Alright, we're gonna take

803
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 1: another quick break and we'll talk a little bit more,

804
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:37,759
Speaker 1: some more more popular culture. Where was the bab That

805
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:41,399
Speaker 1: was my question, the Babu Frick spin off? I'm out.

806
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 1: I'm out. Yeah, I subscribed. They can't handle it. They're

807
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,279
Speaker 1: a right, they can't handle the Babu Frick verse. All right,

808
00:44:49,360 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 1: we'll be right back, and we're back. Uh, and have

809
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,719
Speaker 1: y'all seen I don't know if you saw this, but

810
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 1: over the weekend, Britney Spears and the Backstreet Boys dropped

811
00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:18,880
Speaker 1: like a fucking new song together in twenty I mean, okay,

812
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:21,520
Speaker 1: I mean I'll play a little bit of it for

813
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: you now. It's called let me see what did you

814
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:31,200
Speaker 1: just call me? Yeah? Right, you already got matches matches,

815
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 1: and you know what, Let's just play a little bit

816
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: of it, uh and just get our thoughts on the

817
00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:39,240
Speaker 1: other side here. You know, I could see I'm brainstreaming

818
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 1: my name and it fits up to me. Oh you

819
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:53,719
Speaker 1: know what, I am a brand between Let's play in

820
00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:57,839
Speaker 1: with matches. Okay, okay, like that drop, I couldn't give

821
00:45:57,840 --> 00:45:59,719
Speaker 1: it to you. We will get hit with a season

822
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:06,280
Speaker 1: to say, but Britney in playing with my what my matches.

823
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,759
Speaker 1: It's like playing with matches. Yeah, exactly, because we're so

824
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:11,879
Speaker 1: horny or something. I feel like that's where most songs

825
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:14,520
Speaker 1: are about, like that. I like this one, especially after

826
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,719
Speaker 1: after the year that Brittany has had. I'm like, she

827
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:21,720
Speaker 1: deserves a win, she if she. If Brittany is happy

828
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:24,879
Speaker 1: with the track, then I'm happy with the track. Yeah.

829
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,880
Speaker 1: I okay. Now I'm not saying I don't like this,

830
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:32,560
Speaker 1: but what would have been nice was something that fully

831
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:36,080
Speaker 1: leaned into like that early odds late nineties sound like

832
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:38,560
Speaker 1: that would have probably fucked everybody up. Like you know,

833
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:40,719
Speaker 1: I'm like, yo, I don't like, it's not great, but

834
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,719
Speaker 1: it sounds like when we were sixteen or fourteen or

835
00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:46,279
Speaker 1: however old anyone was back then. But like, I feel like,

836
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 1: but either way, this seems like very up to date.

837
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 1: You know. It's got that club drop that everybody was

838
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:56,920
Speaker 1: having a drop alone is just so unfamiliar. So the

839
00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:00,839
Speaker 1: vocals sounded a little wet, like, they sounded a little

840
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 1: older for what they didn't sound like boys. And I'm

841
00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:07,399
Speaker 1: sensing some computerized vocals have heavy on it. I think

842
00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 1: so again, No, that's no, that's called practice, baby, that's

843
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,719
Speaker 1: I think Brittany is doing the back Street Boys a

844
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,600
Speaker 1: huge favor here because it's like Brittany sound as she's

845
00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:28,759
Speaker 1: like still a contemporary artist. She her like sound and

846
00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:31,719
Speaker 1: image has like evolved over the years, whereas the back

847
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 1: Street Boys are still very firmly in two thousands. But

848
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 1: like Brittany, I yeah, I think that was that was

849
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:41,320
Speaker 1: a good community service thing that Brittany did for the boys.

850
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:46,320
Speaker 1: They oh, there's no I mean actually unless Brittany was

851
00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 1: like you know what I'm feeling, you know, nostalgic for

852
00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 1: the old days. But it's like it's very clear who's

853
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:55,680
Speaker 1: doing who the favorite here because that's like, yeah, I

854
00:47:55,719 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 1: don't know. There's a telephone that like pop stars just

855
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 1: pick up and they all are connected to right, like

856
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:09,680
Speaker 1: like the Tower Puff Girls. Basically who wants to I

857
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,280
Speaker 1: saw I saw the back Step I saw the Backstreet

858
00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:16,959
Speaker 1: Boys in Vegas last year. The brag and uh, they're

859
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 1: a little they're getting a little crusty. They're getting a

860
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:24,160
Speaker 1: little crusty getting Listen, did I did I cry? There

861
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:31,880
Speaker 1: was I did I buy merch? Yes, of course, but

862
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:35,279
Speaker 1: but they you know, they're gett they're getting maybe a

863
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:39,279
Speaker 1: little crusty. They're doing skits at their Vegas show. But

864
00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:44,239
Speaker 1: they do skits. They're like, hey, Nick, remember when we

865
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:50,839
Speaker 1: lived in Florida, and please well it's also in Pearlman.

866
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:56,399
Speaker 1: Oh my god, where's the lou Pearlman move? Anyways there.

867
00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 1: I could go on about that for days, but it's

868
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:00,480
Speaker 1: just like the back Street Boys all like kind of

869
00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:04,080
Speaker 1: walking around on stage trying to avoid talking about the

870
00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:07,400
Speaker 1: many crimes Nick Carter is committed over the years. Um,

871
00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,200
Speaker 1: So we couldn't even get Aaron Carter in there as

872
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:13,879
Speaker 1: a sub sucks. It's like, yeah, it's like you're damned

873
00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:15,080
Speaker 1: if you do, and your damned if you don't. With

874
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:19,080
Speaker 1: these Carter guys. Um. One thing I was looking at

875
00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:22,720
Speaker 1: it was interestingly enough, is the New York Times devoted

876
00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 1: a bit of page space to the trend, the pandemic

877
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:32,360
Speaker 1: trend of squirrel tables. Um, the squirrel table sort of

878
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:35,879
Speaker 1: stuff like the squirrel tables. You haven't seen These kinds

879
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 1: of memes are like not memes, like, but I felt

880
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,040
Speaker 1: like at the very beginning of Lockdown, I was definitely

881
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:43,680
Speaker 1: seeing these like videos and images of people creating like

882
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 1: picnic benches for squirrels that they would put on trees.

883
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:50,359
Speaker 1: Or fences and like just be like, oh my god,

884
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:52,640
Speaker 1: look the squirrels eating at this table I made and

885
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 1: it's eating sunflower seeds, and people just getting giddy by

886
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:59,760
Speaker 1: being like I made a cool restaurant for a squirrel. Um, okay,

887
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:02,359
Speaker 1: kind of cute. This isn't I'm really the only one

888
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:04,120
Speaker 1: that was tapped into the world was like, this does

889
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:07,080
Speaker 1: not ring any kind of bells for me. You were, what,

890
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 1: what's your algorithm? I don't know, man, I think it's

891
00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:14,560
Speaker 1: like it's it's it like modulates between like European soccer,

892
00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:18,880
Speaker 1: NBA weed, like hip hop beats, and then like moments

893
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:22,279
Speaker 1: that will make you cry because you skipped therapy this week. Um,

894
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:25,839
Speaker 1: but this one the trend. And so as they're saying,

895
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,920
Speaker 1: they really tried to dial like dial in where the

896
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:30,800
Speaker 1: origin of this trend was. They said the trend seemed

897
00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,520
Speaker 1: to have started in March quote when Rick Kalinowski, an

898
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,279
Speaker 1: unemployed plumber in brent More, Pennsylvania, posted a series of

899
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,839
Speaker 1: pictures of a squirrel feeder in the Facebook group all

900
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:42,000
Speaker 1: about Squirrels. In one widely shared picture, a squirrel sits

901
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,600
Speaker 1: at the table attached to a fence and grasps peanuts

902
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 1: in its little hands. Um. Now, just a quick history

903
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:50,440
Speaker 1: about squirrels, which I didn't know. I just thought there

904
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:53,960
Speaker 1: were things we have lived with a long time. Apparently,

905
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:57,839
Speaker 1: like we got very close to like eradicating squirrels from

906
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:01,000
Speaker 1: cities because people are just like these are crop pests,

907
00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:04,560
Speaker 1: are like their game, Like they're not for fucking hopping

908
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:07,960
Speaker 1: around our our neighborhoods and things like that. But they

909
00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 1: had a nice rehabilitation in the mid eighteen hundreds, uh,

910
00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:15,960
Speaker 1: in places like Philly and Boston, they began reintroducing squirrels

911
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:19,560
Speaker 1: to like the urban environments, to quote beautify and enliven

912
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:22,399
Speaker 1: the urban landscape at a time when American cities were

913
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:27,400
Speaker 1: growing in geographic extent, uh, population density, and cultural diversity.

914
00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 1: And then once the urban park came along, it was

915
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:36,320
Speaker 1: Frederick bestowed upon us. Yeah, I mean we all know.

916
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,040
Speaker 1: I mean we all have the tattoo. Um, the world

917
00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 1: is basically once like we have more parks, they really

918
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:45,080
Speaker 1: began finding their place and like trees and in suburbs

919
00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:48,720
Speaker 1: and in cities. So now cut to like us living

920
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:54,040
Speaker 1: vicariously through these tiny animals. It sounds like something that

921
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:57,040
Speaker 1: my my like aunt would post a Facebook and be like, now,

922
00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:00,640
Speaker 1: this is true bipartisanship. There are some things we can

923
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:02,840
Speaker 1: all agree on. And it's at a squirrel on the

924
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:06,000
Speaker 1: table makes me laugh and look at him eating today

925
00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 1: my best customer the Loneous Chipmunk, which I think is

926
00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:14,560
Speaker 1: the name of a famous squirrel. This is much kinder

927
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:19,280
Speaker 1: to the squirrel than some of the YouTube squirrel clicks

928
00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 1: I've gone after, which are people who are unhappy with

929
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 1: squirrels taking the bird their bird seed. Oh yeah, no,

930
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:32,120
Speaker 1: this is a and there are some true hilarious depending

931
00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:37,719
Speaker 1: on what you know, mean um obstacle course aficionados that

932
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,760
Speaker 1: have like really taken it two squirrels because as anyone

933
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:43,640
Speaker 1: from the Midwest, like myself knows, they will get that

934
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:48,919
Speaker 1: bird seed right, well, they will get the bird seed well. Going,

935
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:52,400
Speaker 1: going off this, I want to make a quick YouTube recommendation.

936
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:56,640
Speaker 1: There's a channel I learned about recently called James Blackwood,

937
00:52:56,719 --> 00:53:01,000
Speaker 1: the Raccoon Whisperer. He's a guy that lives in Nova Nova, Scotia,

938
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:05,880
Speaker 1: and it's just truly thousands of videos of him feeding

939
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:09,759
Speaker 1: raccoons peanut butter sandwiches every single night. The raccoons are

940
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:12,800
Speaker 1: gigantic and they love him, and he has them on

941
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:15,759
Speaker 1: the schedule, and it's just if you want to see

942
00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:20,440
Speaker 1: a retiree feed like thirty raccoons, is this how grizzly

943
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:25,360
Speaker 1: man do there's a chan it's so it's the raccoons

944
00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:28,279
Speaker 1: are so because they have fingers and hands and it's

945
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:33,640
Speaker 1: cute and so that's yeah, there's a whole He has

946
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:37,840
Speaker 1: four hundred thousand subscribers. Is Werner Hurtz not gonna narrate

947
00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:45,200
Speaker 1: that too? Raccoon Man came to that hung old. He

948
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,000
Speaker 1: uploads twice a day. It's just like and all the

949
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:54,040
Speaker 1: videos are called like mobbed by Raccoons Tuesday, November three day.

950
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:59,480
Speaker 1: This guy is a content machine. Yeah, we think we

951
00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:02,560
Speaker 1: really a lot. Well, he's going twice a day, no

952
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:06,600
Speaker 1: days off with the raccoon content. I will say this,

953
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:09,840
Speaker 1: like people are I mean, it's nice to see people productive,

954
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:12,279
Speaker 1: like be productive in their time off at least like

955
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:14,239
Speaker 1: they're being like I'm dedicate my time at least feeds

956
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:18,400
Speaker 1: some animals and like poisoning the raccoons or like that.

957
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:21,320
Speaker 1: But I posted one of the pictures from this article.

958
00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:25,880
Speaker 1: People are making like full on charcouterie boards for squirrels

959
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:28,680
Speaker 1: and That's where I'm like, look, I get it if

960
00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:30,359
Speaker 1: it's a hobby and helps pass the time. Like, I'm

961
00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:32,080
Speaker 1: not gonna judge you. But like I'm looking at that,

962
00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:33,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, I'm too greedy with my food to

963
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 1: ever put a platter out for an animal who won't

964
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:38,960
Speaker 1: give a funk about the presentation. I mean, honestly, for

965
00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:40,960
Speaker 1: at that point, I feel like that's people doing it

966
00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:45,000
Speaker 1: more for content than for the animals, which is annoying.

967
00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:47,800
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, isn't this funny, And You're like, I

968
00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:53,759
Speaker 1: guess whatever, More like you're no raccoon whisperer, more like

969
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:59,560
Speaker 1: shark CUTI. Oh, that has to be a fucking Instagram page.

970
00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:02,800
Speaker 1: I'm sure showing the best of people. I want to

971
00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:07,799
Speaker 1: step on. I didn't want to step on Jamie's raccoon men. Yeah,

972
00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 1: don't interrupt me when I'm talking about the raccoon whisper.

973
00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:14,399
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean credit to all these people. I mean,

974
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:17,439
Speaker 1: look if if just because we can't dine out doesn't

975
00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:22,239
Speaker 1: mean we can create that experience for our squirrel friends. True. Uh.

976
00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:23,800
Speaker 1: And then one last thing I want to touch on,

977
00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 1: because we were talking about reboots pissing people off. Um, NBC,

978
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:31,319
Speaker 1: like I can't I can't believe how many like they're

979
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:33,799
Speaker 1: gonna think they're gonna reboot I carly at this point,

980
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:37,640
Speaker 1: like everything that's coming back around now, um, and apparently

981
00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:41,880
Speaker 1: Zoro is going to become a series. And I'm like okay,

982
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:44,320
Speaker 1: but NBC, you know, like they're like, no, let's just

983
00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:46,960
Speaker 1: not just do Zoro, Like let's do Zoro but like

984
00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:51,359
Speaker 1: make a Lady Zoro with Sophia Vergara. And right now

985
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:56,880
Speaker 1: NBC is developing this contemporary take, contemporary take on the

986
00:55:57,080 --> 00:56:00,920
Speaker 1: classic character with like Robert Rodriguez and his I believe

987
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:04,640
Speaker 1: his sister are working on like the script. Um now

988
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, whatever, that could be interesting. It was

989
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:09,680
Speaker 1: like I'm on word so far, but what's the show about?

990
00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:11,640
Speaker 1: What's this show about? And they say co written by

991
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:14,279
Speaker 1: brother and sister do a Robert Rebecca Rodriguez and to

992
00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:18,279
Speaker 1: be directed by Rebecca. Zoro centers on Solo Dominguez, an

993
00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:22,720
Speaker 1: underground artist who fights for social justice. As contemporary version

994
00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:25,080
Speaker 1: of the mythical Zoro. Her life is threatened by several

995
00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:28,920
Speaker 1: criminal organizations after she exposes them to have quite literally

996
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,280
Speaker 1: social justice warrior. In the description, I have a feeling

997
00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:35,359
Speaker 1: you're going to draw the ira of shitty Internet people,

998
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:37,000
Speaker 1: like I mean, like, this show could be good, but

999
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:38,759
Speaker 1: I love seeing that. I'm like, I can only see

1000
00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:43,799
Speaker 1: people like dude a literal social justice warrior come to Yeah.

1001
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 1: I almost feel like that is like that's a really

1002
00:56:47,239 --> 00:56:52,360
Speaker 1: frustrating way for the press release to frame it because

1003
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:54,680
Speaker 1: they're just like, I mean, I do believe that that

1004
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:56,880
Speaker 1: happens all the time, where like press releases will be

1005
00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:59,440
Speaker 1: formed in a way where they know they're kind of

1006
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:01,840
Speaker 1: bay being the hateful part of the Internet because that

1007
00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:05,560
Speaker 1: will get the show coverage. Um, but that's a very

1008
00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:07,759
Speaker 1: vile thing to do because it's like who gets the

1009
00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:11,000
Speaker 1: abuse from that is like the not the press department.

1010
00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:13,560
Speaker 1: It's the stars of the show and the people who

1011
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,400
Speaker 1: are writing and creating it, so that ship. I hope

1012
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:19,040
Speaker 1: the show is good. I mean, it's it's I would

1013
00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:22,560
Speaker 1: it sounds like a show that I would absolutely watch.

1014
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:24,760
Speaker 1: I mean, how do you what's how do you go?

1015
00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:29,720
Speaker 1: I'll envision the pilot of an underground artist. I'm just

1016
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:35,760
Speaker 1: trying to at all the unsuccessful pitches I've had in

1017
00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:41,480
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, like this this guy put through unsuccessful artists

1018
00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:44,880
Speaker 1: social excuse me successful whatever it is, yet underground artist.

1019
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,240
Speaker 1: I think underground artific artist is a euphemism for not

1020
00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:51,360
Speaker 1: selling any of your works. I just I wish, I

1021
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:54,280
Speaker 1: wish that there was like there there needs, there's like

1022
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,960
Speaker 1: such a void in Latin X representation on TV, but

1023
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:00,640
Speaker 1: it's I do I do that. It was like we

1024
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:04,160
Speaker 1: could just give money to latin X creators instead of

1025
00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:08,080
Speaker 1: making it like the Algorithm and it reboot and have

1026
00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:11,760
Speaker 1: it like that's so many, that's so many additional things.

1027
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,880
Speaker 1: But just felt like why are you being like why

1028
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:19,000
Speaker 1: I gotta be about something like letting people create, Like

1029
00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:21,520
Speaker 1: give money to marginalized creators and let them make what

1030
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:24,800
Speaker 1: they fucking want, Like that always works out better. Yeah,

1031
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:26,560
Speaker 1: if I was at NBC, I'm like, bring me the

1032
00:58:26,640 --> 00:58:29,880
Speaker 1: latin X Seinfeld, bring me the Black Seinfeld, bring me

1033
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:32,800
Speaker 1: the Asian Seinfeld, Like we'll get all of these going,

1034
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 1: like because that's really I think the most creative writing

1035
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:37,800
Speaker 1: are coming out of like these small moments that are

1036
00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:41,440
Speaker 1: experienced by these groups and elevating them because we know

1037
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:45,480
Speaker 1: the sitcom moments of like white American culture. But it's

1038
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:49,439
Speaker 1: like you can this place got a multi contains multitudes based.

1039
00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:52,600
Speaker 1: It's all they're just like fund it and green light it.

1040
00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:54,640
Speaker 1: But it's like, yeah, this is a lot of this

1041
00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:59,800
Speaker 1: is a lot of buzzy, like Social Justice Warrior, re

1042
00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:05,200
Speaker 1: boot old property, famous filmmaker attached, like there's there's so

1043
00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:09,680
Speaker 1: many algorithm things that play here. Yeah, if you guys

1044
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:14,040
Speaker 1: could uh reboot a movie right now or or show, um,

1045
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:16,120
Speaker 1: what would you do? What do you want to see

1046
00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:18,240
Speaker 1: come back? Because it looks like I mean, the chances

1047
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:20,160
Speaker 1: are that it probably will be rebooted, But is there

1048
00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:23,120
Speaker 1: anything specifically that y'all hold in your hearts that you're

1049
00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:25,400
Speaker 1: waiting for or would like to see them back? Boy,

1050
00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:29,200
Speaker 1: I honestly did. I was excited to hear Tiny Tuns

1051
00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:32,680
Speaker 1: was coming back. That was the one I was like, there,

1052
00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:36,720
Speaker 1: I I like like kids cartoon reboots work for me

1053
00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:38,600
Speaker 1: because it's like, oh, I would love to see a

1054
00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:42,640
Speaker 1: less problematic version of that cartoon that I really liked. Um, yeah,

1055
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 1: I wouldn't know about Orson welles if for Tiny Toons

1056
00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:49,440
Speaker 1: to be honest, well, yes that's true. What about you, Michael?

1057
00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:54,400
Speaker 1: I think I'm always gonna go with an original over

1058
00:59:54,560 --> 01:00:00,120
Speaker 1: a reboot, but um, just because I just feel like

1059
01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:03,840
Speaker 1: there are so many original, interesting stories that always get

1060
01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:07,400
Speaker 1: pushed off because hey, the networks like Zoro made us

1061
01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:11,560
Speaker 1: some money back in, let's just change a couple of

1062
01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:14,960
Speaker 1: Zoro things. But um, I don't know if I have

1063
01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:17,040
Speaker 1: a great answer for you on that. Yeah, No, I

1064
01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:19,520
Speaker 1: mean I think that's fair because for the most part,

1065
01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:23,000
Speaker 1: I think I do get more excited for something new

1066
01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:25,280
Speaker 1: where I'm like, hey, I've never heard of that, and

1067
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:27,640
Speaker 1: it could be absolute shit, but it's at least it's

1068
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:31,960
Speaker 1: not another season of name whatever fucking show. Well yeah,

1069
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:34,560
Speaker 1: and I'm always like, you took a shot at something

1070
01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:37,160
Speaker 1: unique and different. Maybe it wasn't executed the right way,

1071
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:40,760
Speaker 1: but I'm like, okay, you created you can right right? Yeah. Yeah.

1072
01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:45,600
Speaker 1: The thing like reboot culture, it's everything like reboot culture.

1073
01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 1: It pisces me off though, because it's like at this point,

1074
01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:52,120
Speaker 1: like we're rebooting like B and C Tier County, right,

1075
01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:54,920
Speaker 1: Like what is the point in doing it? How is

1076
01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:57,960
Speaker 1: that worth anyone's time or energy? And like I feel

1077
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:02,840
Speaker 1: like also, the like success rate of reboots is so low,

1078
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:08,000
Speaker 1: Like I just don't understand. I don't understand it. Usually

1079
01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:10,960
Speaker 1: people hate hate when because they're either mad that it

1080
01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:14,000
Speaker 1: doesn't suck in the same ways, or they're mad because

1081
01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:16,280
Speaker 1: they're like I've seen this on bored of this? You know,

1082
01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:20,680
Speaker 1: is there a contractual like do they need to activate

1083
01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:25,360
Speaker 1: zoros so then they keep the copyright or something like

1084
01:01:25,440 --> 01:01:27,680
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like like is it hidden

1085
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:29,720
Speaker 1: in some time capsule and if they don't use it

1086
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:32,320
Speaker 1: for thirty years, it goes back to the originator. Like

1087
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:34,600
Speaker 1: I'm always wondering, like is there more, some more sinister

1088
01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:37,440
Speaker 1: reason that they keep bringing it back up other than

1089
01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:43,120
Speaker 1: just I mean, I just can't wait for that Small

1090
01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:48,880
Speaker 1: Wonder reboot. Really well, you know what would actually be

1091
01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:53,640
Speaker 1: a good reboot is the Jim Henson Dinosaurs series. I

1092
01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:56,880
Speaker 1: would like a Dinosaurs reboot. Oh yeah, get DJ Daniel's

1093
01:01:56,960 --> 01:02:01,400
Speaker 1: dad back. I'm my uncle was one of the first

1094
01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:03,120
Speaker 1: eight d s on that show. And I remember I

1095
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:04,960
Speaker 1: went to the set as a kid and I took

1096
01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:06,920
Speaker 1: up a picture there and I brought that ship to school.

1097
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:09,400
Speaker 1: I was like, I was there, I met not the mama, motherfucker,

1098
01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:11,919
Speaker 1: Get off of me. That's cool. Yeah, I would want

1099
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:14,600
Speaker 1: I want, I want the baby who you gotta love

1100
01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:17,720
Speaker 1: to come back? Bring back that baby. Yeah yeah, Well

1101
01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:19,800
Speaker 1: Bill Barr kind of looks like the baby I want

1102
01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:25,320
Speaker 1: dinos and diapees. Absolutely, I think that's a great slogan.

Speaker 1: Great great, I know. Yeah, the reboots called dinos and diapees. Well, Michael,

01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:53,520
Speaker 1: his sixth birthday. We gave him an open face bacon sandwich.

1112
01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:56,960
Speaker 1: Am I trying to get you as a follower by

1113
01:02:57,080 --> 01:02:59,960
Speaker 1: pushing out my picture of my dogs eating a birthday

1114
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:02,160
Speaker 1: a sandwich? I am, That's what I'm Can you described

1115
01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:03,760
Speaker 1: the birthday? Just give us a little bit more, just

1116
01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:05,440
Speaker 1: because I think you got people out the doors. But

1117
01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:09,760
Speaker 1: how do we get him in? Well, we accidentally bought

1118
01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:13,200
Speaker 1: gluten free bread and we didn't know how to eat it.

1119
01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:15,439
Speaker 1: So I was like, let's cut one piece in half,

1120
01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:17,800
Speaker 1: put some bacon on it, and then a candle. So

1121
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:19,800
Speaker 1: he actually has a gluten free bait. And I know

1122
01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:22,240
Speaker 1: you were being sarcastic, Miles, but I ran with no question.

1123
01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:26,120
Speaker 1: So he has a gluten free piece of bread with

1124
01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:28,240
Speaker 1: some bacon on it and a candle. But I blew

1125
01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:29,760
Speaker 1: out the candle. I didn't have the dog blew out

1126
01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:32,960
Speaker 1: the candle, but you made it, did But you made

1127
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:35,800
Speaker 1: the wish on his behalf. Actually it's a great point

1128
01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:43,440
Speaker 1: shit wish. Well, I believe, I believe we we granted

1129
01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:46,280
Speaker 1: him his wish, which was I want to open face

1130
01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 1: bacon sandwich right now. And let's be fair, dogs can't

1131
01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:50,800
Speaker 1: even wrap their head around the concept of a wish

1132
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:54,960
Speaker 1: being granted, so's wasted. Uh. And Michael, what's a tweet

1133
01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:56,760
Speaker 1: that you like? Is there an active social media that

1134
01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:59,880
Speaker 1: you want to show you? My friend, my friend Tim

Speaker 1: Handling is a funny comedian and he tweeted this a

1136
01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:06,240
Speaker 1: few days ago. But I think it's just great. If

1137
01:04:06,360 --> 01:04:09,560
Speaker 1: nine eleven happened today, half the country would say it

1138
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:14,880
Speaker 1: was a hoax, and it is. It's so freaking funny

1139
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:19,560
Speaker 1: and also totally unfunny and also true. Right. Yeah, It's

1140

Speaker 1: you hurt inside, Like we watched the airplanes fly into

1142
01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:27,840
Speaker 1: the building. And yet there would still be people that

1143
01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:30,800
Speaker 1: would say, you know, I don't know, dude. I mean

1144
01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 1: to be fair, I think there were some people back
