Speaker 2: typical sort of trappings of a wedding, and it was beautiful.

71
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,400

161
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 2: woman I know, she was saying she she owns taco

162
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 2: bells or like young brand stock because like ever since

163
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 2: she was a child, she's been obsessed with Taco Bell,

164
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 2: and like in the school econ project, like in like

165
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 2: high school, they had to buy like a couple dollars

166
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 2: worth of stock in the stock market when people diversified.

167
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 2: She bought all Taco Bell and she's still holding onto

168
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 2: that a little bit of stock. She's like, but yeah,

169
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 2: I got my shares.

170
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: There you go.

171
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,959
Speaker 2: And you know, people all had different stories like that,

172
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 2: So shout out to fast food completely destroying our brains.

173
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: Yes, all right, My underrated is the model of human

174
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,599
Speaker 1: psychology in the movie Elemental.

175
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 2: Oh so you go a low brow with yours. I

176
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 2: do a little high brow, you do a little low brow. Okay, okay, yeah,

177
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 2: yeah exactly.

178
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not on the Taco Bell level. I'm

179
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 1: on the children's movie psychology. The new Pixar movie is

180
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,959
Speaker 1: finally on Disney Plus. It's fine, but they have this

181
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 1: thing in there that like I've thought about a lot,

182
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 1: and like as I've gotten older, and I think is

183
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: like truer and truer of me, which is so the

184
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: main character keeps losing her temper on that. So she's

185
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 1: like set to inherit her father's shop, she keeps losing

186
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: her temper on the customers, and it's treated like a

187
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 1: thing for her to overcome. But then her love interest,

188
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 1: who is water, she's fire, is like, when I lose

189
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 1: my temper, it's usually just like something to the effect

190
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 1: of like my inner self telling me something I'm not

191
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: ready to hear, and she doesn't like unlock it right then,

192
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 1: but she keeps like fighting against this belief that she

193
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: should in, you know, or fighting to like sustain this belief.

194
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: And I don't like this idea of human psychology, whether

195
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: it be like your temper or like self sabotage. Like

196
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: people talk a lot about self sabotage, and when people

197
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 1: talk about self sabotaging, they always side with the person

198
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 1: who's being sabotaged. But the saboteur is trying to tell

199
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: you something.

200
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 2: In my experience, like most I'm sorry, when you're people,

201
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 2: you mean, people side with the person themselves rather than

202
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 2: their instinct to sabotage themselves.

203
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, And like I feel like in my life, like

204
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: the saboteur is trying to tell me, like, at various times, Oh,

205
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: this career that you're trying to force your way down

206
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: is actually not the right one, or you know that

207
00:10:55,840 --> 00:11:01,479
Speaker 1: relationship doesn't work for you, or you know, like I

208
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 1: was experiencing a lot of social anxiety around like certain people,

209
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,959
Speaker 1: and I would, you know, try and figure out, like

210
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: how do I not experience as much social anxiety? And

211
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: like for a long time it was like, well, I

212
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: just drink to get around it. But you know, ultimately,

213
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: as I've gotten older and like been in therapy for

214
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: a while, I feel like the thing that was just

215
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 1: my my social anxiety was not like a bug. It

216
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: was like trying to tell me like maybe these aren't

217
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: the people that you fuck with, you know, like maybe

218
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 1: this is just like you don't feel great around these

219
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: people because there's like something about them that you're like

220
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 1: not super into that we're not vibing with. Like sure

221
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 1: that statement of like there's that cliche like we contain multitudes, right,

222
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: I think that that's truer and truer, But like we

223
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: only have access to like a small number of them

224
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 1: with our conscious mind, and so they will act out

225
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 1: on us through you know, things we seem seemingly do

226
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: by accident or things like that come out through a

227
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: temper or just like gut feelings or something like that

228
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I don't know, I'm

229
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: realizing I need to unlearn like some concepts and just

230
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: like listen to myself, you know.

231
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,080
Speaker 2: Right right right, because yeah, some that's sort of like

232
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 2: the last ditch effort of your subconscious being like, fuck

233
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 2: you do, I need to fuck this up for you

234
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 2: for us to move on, versus like, yeah, having that

235
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 2: level of self awareness to say, like have I I

236
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 2: felt this way a lot too, where I had such

237
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 2: a singular focus that I was like I need to

238
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,080
Speaker 2: be on SNL and like that's the only thing I

239
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 2: could do, and that led me to a lot of

240
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 2: fucking bad places, like just more like emotionally and how

241
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 2: like I had such a rigid sort of concept of

242
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 2: what my future could be or should be, that it

243
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 2: was at the expense of recognizing all these other things

244
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 2: that I liked to do. And yeah, like I know that. Yeah,

245
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 2: it took a moment. It never manifested to be sabotaging

246
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 2: anything necessarily, but there was a lot of like it

247
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 2: just felt like it was a slog to do certain things.

248
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,439
Speaker 2: I felt like, I'm like, this isn't fucking flowing right,

249
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 2: But part of my mind was like it's because you

250
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 2: don't want it hard enough, right, And I was like, wait,

251
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,079
Speaker 2: I might not actually just want this. I think it's

252
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 2: because I was Since I was a child, I was

253
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 2: told I was funny over and over and in the

254
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 2: nineties people were like, you're going to be on a

255
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 2: Living Color? Do you want to be on that CNL?

256
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 2: And then you take that shit with you and then

257
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 2: you have you completely sort of abandon any other possibility

258
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 2: for yourself. So I definitely see that.

259
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah like that. Sometimes I personally need

260
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: to listen to get on sn I could get on easily. Yeah,

261
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 1: It's super easy and only has to do with how

262
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: funny you are and nothing to do with love or

263
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: who you know, whether you're like a second generation like

264
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: literally like your dad was a writer on SNL.

265
00:13:58,360 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 2: Dad's Tim Hurley.

266
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, but sometimes I do feel like I just like

267
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: need to listen to what my own actions are telling

268
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: me what I want instead of like what I want

269
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 1: to want.

270
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

271
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:13,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I'm I realized all of this because.

272
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 2: Of Elemental Shout Out Elemental No.

273
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: I it just like it was kind of like a

274
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 1: deep point and like it's a pretty mediocre Pixar movie,

275
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: like compared to other Pixar movies.

276
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 2: Right.

277
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 1: I thought it was a pretty interesting idea, like psychological

278
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: concept that was kind of buried in there.

279
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 2: So good And what did your kids have the same

280
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 2: takeaway too?

281
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: Where they had to they were like interesting, this says

282
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: some interesting things about self sabotage.

283
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 2: Know yourself, embrace yourself.

284
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 1: What's what something you think is overrated?

285
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 2: A couple of things. First off is the fucking obsession

286
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 2: with Taylor Swift dating dating this Elsie guy Kelse whatever. Yeah. Uh,

287
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 2: I just it's like I was fucking inundated with coverage

288
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 2: about it online last night and this morning they walked

289
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 2: away holding hands. He's got this outfit he wore is

290
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 2: now named after tailor. They drove off in a convertible.

291
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 2: There are so many fucking she's with his mom in

292
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 2: the box. But remember she also met Tom Hiddleston's mom

293
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 2: and we know where that went. And fucking it was

294
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 2: just it was just too much. I you know, shout

295
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 2: out to her. Be happy. I hope y'all are happy.

296
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 2: Like it's because has nothing to It's not like Taylor's

297
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 2: out there be like y'all need to report on this.

298
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 2: It's just that our culture, like having this focus on it,

299
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 2: it just felt so I don't know. At a certain point,

300
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 2: I'm like, this is corny, Like this feels like an

301
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 2: early nineties rom com about like the superstar who's secretly

302
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 2: dating the football player. And then like the third act

303
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 2: climax is her like finally being at the gamer was

304
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 2: like act and so like to me, I was like,

305
00:15:58,720 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 2: this is just so boring.

306
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: But I mean, it's also interesting to think about in

307
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: the context of like the stuff we've said with regards

308
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 1: to her being a religious figure and like these artists

309
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 1: and religious figures like when a religiou Like if suddenly

310
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: people were like, oh, the Virgin Mary is dating Grunk,

311
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, They're like, yo Jesus for her.

312
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 2: HEYESU Cristo out here, ca noodling with Mary Magna doodle

Speaker 2: get what you get what you want. But the coverage

316
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 2: of it just like I just couldn't believe how many Hey,

317
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick, what do you think? And I was like,

318
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 2: this is so fucking annoying, Like I'm sure, and he

319
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 2: was even like it's good the best catch of his

320
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 2: career right there. No, yes, dude, Belichick said that some

321
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 2: ship like that was the headline. Didn't even bother because

322
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 2: I was like, I can't be leave. Everyone is trying

323
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 2: to make find an angle in with this, like whether

324
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 2: it's about the car or the restaurant or Bill Belichick

325
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 2: or whatever.

326
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 1: Belichick would be the funniest person I can imagine to

327
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 1: like do try to try to conduct a like right turn,

328
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 1: like at this late stage of his career into like

329
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: TMZ cultural commentators. He's like on the panel shows where

330
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 1: he's like, that's a great catch all football meta.

331
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 2: Apparently Belichick is a swiftye himself. Wow, so y'all, don't

332
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 2: you can get touched out here? Okay, that's just that's

333
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 2: the key, and so the other thing I also, so

334
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 2: aside from that, the other thing I want to say

335
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 2: was I just read that Alicia Keys is starting a

336
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:54,919
Speaker 2: fucking herbal te line called Alicia Teas. This is so

337
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 2: stupid to me. This is I can't I don't why

338
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 2: just because it rhymes, I don't think. I don't like

339
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 2: this doesn't seem like a thing where you're like, oh yeah, okay, interesting, interesting,

340
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 2: and I just again like celebrities are trying to be

341
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 2: like branding themselves, like I'm gonna sell fucking tea.

342
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 1: Alicia, Come on, Alicia T questions Alicia T.

343
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 2: It sounds like a joke we would say off on

344
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 2: this show, like a bad one.

345
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 1: That would be like Brian cut that, Yeah.

00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 2: I actually cut that out. Yeah yeah, no, no, don't. I

347
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 2: don't want anybody thinking that I actually think that shit.

348
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,679
Speaker 1: I love Yeah, my overrated. So I guess I have

349
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 1: a question, But do you do you? Was the movie

350
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,119
Speaker 1: big for you? Important to you?

351
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 2: What was his name? Josh Baskin?

352
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: Josh Baskin. Josh Baskin has a problem.

353
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 2: Dude, I fucked that movie fucking exploded my head.

354
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 1: Yeah. As a kid, yeah, I love We had it

355
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 1: on VHS. I probably watched it like three hundred times

356
00:18:55,400 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 1: from the ages of eight to ten, and then like

357
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 1: hadn't watched it again until I just watched it this

358
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 1: weekend with my kids.

359
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 2: Isn't isn't I haven't seen it in maybe ten or

360
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 2: fifteen years. But isn't the the relationships a little bit weird?

361
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 2: Isn't it? Yeah?

362
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,159
Speaker 1: What you mean? The one where he's a child in

363
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 1: an adult's body and he has a romantic relationship with

364
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,679
Speaker 1: a grown woman. Yeah yeah that one.

365
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah that part. I was like I remember seeing

366
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 2: it like ten or fifteen years ago and being like

367
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 2: that's actually kind of weird ye aka problematic, but anyway, yeah,

368
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 2: go on.

369
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 1: So you're watching it, so I can't believe how much

370
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 1: I remember, like everything from like editing, Like I was like, Oh,

371
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 1: here's the part coming up where like this guy's about

372
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,400
Speaker 1: to hit the hammer on the strength test and you're

373
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 1: going to hear the bell, but they're gonna cut away

374
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: from the bell before you hear it, and they're cutting

375
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: away to the roller coaster at the car like I remembered. Yeah, everything,

376
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,479
Speaker 1: like just little details of character performance like it was crazy.

377
00:19:58,520 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 1: It was like being out.

378
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 2: Like the food they were like they were eating takeout from.

379
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: Yes, like he got paid one hundred and eighty seven dollars,

380
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,239
Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty seven dollars, Like his read of

381
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,119
Speaker 1: that line is like, it's not that it was like,

382
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 1: oh I remember this. It was like, oh, this was

383
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: always in my mind, just under the surface. The one

384
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 1: thing that I hadn't remembered is Elizabeth Perkins, the love

385
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: interest in that movie was dating a what is she like?

386
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 1: What is he like? Twelve year old in an adult body?

387
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 1: She's twenty eight in that movie.

388
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 2: Mm okay she and like it just made me ure's

389
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 2: twenty eight.

390
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 1: I don't know if the character's twenty eight, that's how

391
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: old she is.

392
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 2: Oh, and she's given.

393
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,679
Speaker 1: Real performance of like an aspiring society lady. And it

394
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 1: just made me realize like there was weird things happening

395
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 1: with age in the eighties, like where everybody wanted to

396
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:03,440
Speaker 1: look older, like everybody wanted to like be an adult.

397
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: Like that was right. The movie's really about, like I

398
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 1: think I overrated how much it was a kid's movie, right,

399
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:16,120
Speaker 1: It's it's really a movie like about observations about adult

400
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: life and how weird adults.

401
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,719
Speaker 2: Are, right right, right, But you have someone we got

402
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 2: to just embrace that inner child.

403
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but I don't know, it's crazy, like what

404
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: if kid was an adult is Also that's also the

405
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 1: premise of Pee Wee's Big Adventure, which was a movie

406
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 1: night movie like a couple of weeks ago. And yeah,

407
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 1: there was something going on in like the late eighties

408
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,359
Speaker 1: where everyone was like kid adult like they were just

409
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,359
Speaker 1: having a real tough time with the concept of growth.

410
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 2: They're just like, yeah, it's either it's just a binary.

411
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 2: It's like you're you're a child and then you become

412
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 2: forty five years old.

413
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it.

414
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 2: There's no we don't know what an in between is

415
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 2: unless it's some freaky machine fortune telling machine that did

416
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 2: that to you. The thing was, I remember the fucking

417
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 2: way I begged my fucking parents to take me to

418
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 2: Fao Schwartz to hop on that gigantic piano. Yeah, and

419
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 2: I remember there was one in San Francisco and like

420
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 2: they fucking had it roped off, like you couldn't even

421
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 2: do shit on it. And I remember that became like

422
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 2: the thing that every Fao Schwartz on earth had to

423
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 2: have the big ass piano from Big in it that

424
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 2: you could play chopsticks on.

425
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, and just like it was like dark and covered

426
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 1: in sneaker tread.

427
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, some were used. Others were like, don't even fucking

428
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 2: think about desecrating the sacred monument. Yeah, but anyway, Yeah,

429
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:40,679
Speaker 2: that movie lives forever.

430
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't know. I guess my overrated is

431
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: how how much that movie is a kid's movie? How

432
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 1: old everyone I think I was overrating everyone's age in

433
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,199
Speaker 1: the eighties prior to this, you know.

434
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, in my mind, she was like in her late thirties. Yeah,

435
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,640
Speaker 2: like the energy was someone who's like I've done it all,

436
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 2: like now I'm just trying to focus on like my

437
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 2: job and my career.

438
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, my parents were like in their mid thirties. Anyways,

439
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 1: all right, those are some things we think is overrated, underrated. Yeah,

440
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: we're going to take a quick break and we're going

441
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 1: to come back and tell you about some news, a

442
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:36,360
Speaker 1: lot of it. And we're back, and the WGA has

443
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:41,159
Speaker 1: come to a tentative agreement with studios that appears to

444
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 1: give writers what they were asking for all along, all

445
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 1: the stuff that the studios and streamers were like, non starter,

446
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: that's impossible. This is coming at the worst time for us,

447
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 1: you know.

448
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 2: The worst time, record profits, record profits.

449
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 1: We can't afford to give you the basic protections and

450
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 1: requests that your earnings go up with the you know,

451
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 1: record skyrocketing revenue. You know.

452
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, So the way it was announced, I feel hopeful

453
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 2: that this I hope that it is a group of

454
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 2: actual good deal for the writers because like the way

455
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 2: they're saying, like what we have won in this is

456
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 2: This is a direct quote from the WJA. Well, we

457
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 2: have won in this contract. Most particularly, everything we have

458
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 2: gained since May second is due to the willingness of

459
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 2: this membership to exercise its power, to demonstrate its solidarity,

460
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 2: to walk side by side, to endure the pain and

461
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 2: uncertainty of the past. Out of forty six days, it

462
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 2: is the leverage generated by your strike, in concert with

463
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 2: the extraordinary support of our union siblings, that finally brought

464
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 2: the companies back to the table to make a deal.

465
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 2: We can say with great pride that this deal is exceptional,

466
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 2: with meaningful gains and protections for writers in every sector

467
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 2: of the membership. I mean, I you know a lot

468
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,159
Speaker 2: of times when you see these back and forth, you

469
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 2: get this, and then you see the deal and then

470
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 2: there's I mean, it's nothing's ever going to be perfect,

471
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 2: but sure the language and it helped makes me pretty

472
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 2: hopeful that they did make a great deal, especially now

473
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 2: like I felt like last week with Ted Sarandos what

474
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 2: is his name, Sarandon's Sarandos, Yeah, Sirandos from Netflix and

475
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 2: Bob Iger now like literally coming to the table to

476
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 2: fucking figure this shit out. I was like, oh, yeah, yeah,

477
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 2: this is serious now. But yeah, good for them. And

478
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,919
Speaker 2: also they said they until they're still going to be

479
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 2: you know, they're still not working, and I think that

480
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 2: they're still pickting until you know, the rank and file

481
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,639
Speaker 2: membership ratifies the agreement and votes on it. But they

482
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,200
Speaker 2: also said they will not go back to work until

483
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 2: SAG after it also gets theirs too, so the solidarity continues. Wow, yeah,

484
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 2: which is great to see. And hey, turns out striking works.

485
00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 1: Almost like striking works, and unions actually get you the

486
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 1: thing that you need to protect a job from. Yeah,

487
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: going away for love.

488
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, love a bit of worker power. Love to see it.

489
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 2: And also, like I know in California there was a

490
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 2: bill that the state Senate pass that basically would extend

491
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 2: unemployment benefits to striking workers. Yeah. So that's also a

492
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 2: huge tool, uh for workers to you know, exercise their

493
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 2: power because they don't have to rely on like or

494
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 2: have the you know, the whole thing of like what

495
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,199
Speaker 2: do I do money wise if I'm striking for my

496
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 2: own rights?

497
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: Don't we think Friends would have been better if it

498
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 1: was written by people who were part time gig economy workers,

499
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 1: Like that's the question you know, Yeah, I think we

500
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:45,360
Speaker 1: can all agree.

501
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,160
Speaker 2: I mean, and I could get I could get being

502
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 2: Ai Chat to give me a synopsis of an episode

503
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 2: of that, which I will tell you after the break.

504
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 1: Yeah. But when companies like tell us they absolutely need

505
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 1: every penny that they hold out on, it turns out

506
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: their line they can always they can always make it

507
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 1: work if you force them to. And the only way

508
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 1: that I've seen that seems to work forcing companies to

509
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 1: cut the bullshit is collective power. So shout out to them. Yeah,

510
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 1: all right, there's a there's a new poll that finds

511
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:28,880
Speaker 1: Trump winning by ten points and it's I don't.

512
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 2: Know so that.

513
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: This is a ABC Washington Post poll. It says Trump

514
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 1: is the head of Biden by ten points fifty two

515
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 1: percent forty two percent. Obviously that's going to make people panic.

516
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 1: It is starkly different than other poles which placed them

517
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:52,679
Speaker 1: Brinkley Neck and Brinkley Neck. We just got an NBC

518
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 1: poll that found them both tied at forty six percent.

519
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 1: And some outlets are calling the post ABC poll a shock,

520
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 1: which is weird because the same poll, like they use

521
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 1: the same collection methods, found back in May Trump at

522
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: forty nine and Biden at forty two, and at that

523
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: time everyone was like yees. So it's just like a

524
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 1: weird outlier. It doesn't doesn't mean shit. But now we're

525
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 1: getting closer, I think people are more willing to panic

526
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 1: a little bit. You know, there's been more Biden to

527
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 1: old stories. So and I'm panicking just a little bit

528
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 1: because Trump doesn't tend to underperform his polling. He actually

529
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: tends to intellectual politics. Like in presidential elections. Up to

530
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 1: this point he has overperformed his polling. So I don't know.

531
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: It's granted, like we haven't seen him run since the Republicans,

532
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: you know, attacked human rights and appealed Roe v. Wade,

533
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: but he has been willing to soften his stance on

534
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 1: that we've seen before that Trump, Yeah, I don't know.

535
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 1: I just makes me nervous. It's a it's a deep

536
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 1: dark abyss that we stand on the precipice of the

537
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: possibility of him running and winning. But and the outlier

538
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 1: polls are like Trump's up by ten. Are there outlier

539
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: poles that are like Biden is up by ten? No,

540
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 1: we're just not seeing Yeah, I haven't seen that.

541
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 2: I've heard it the most the normal or like the

542
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 2: majority of them that I've seen, it's like he has

543
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 2: like a slight it's basically an advantage within the margin

544
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 2: of error. Yeah, but I don't know. I mean part

545
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 2: of me like when I you know, just watching the

546
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 2: EBB and flow of articles like going from like Biden's

547
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 2: too old, I felt like there was then this push

548
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 2: from the establishment where I saw a lot of articles

549
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 2: that were just like like Trump is going, like it's

550
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 2: we cannot fucking lose to Trump, okay, and if he,

551
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 2: if he wins, it's over for this group. If he wins,

552
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 2: it's over for this And I believe that, you know,

553
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 2: Trump is going to just make things absolutely worse. But

554
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,959
Speaker 2: then I'm like, we always talk about how Trump has

555
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 2: been like this gift to the Democrats because they don't

556
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 2: have to advance their policy agentical anyway. They can just

557
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 2: go they can just rely on this guy can't fucking wine,

558
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 2: and that's the best thing for the status quo. If

559
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 2: the election is merely about this guy can't win, and

560
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 2: it's not about a housing crisis, it's not about like

561
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 2: income inequality and worker rights and shit like that, and

562
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:49,479
Speaker 2: it just becomes this guy can't win it's like a

563
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 2: gift to the establishment, so pardon me. Also too, is

564
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 2: like this also also helps further an argument against trying

565
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,239
Speaker 2: to find someone else to run and they can just

566
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 2: rely on well, I mean, Biden's done it before. He's

567
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 2: done it before, and he may not be perfect, but

568
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 2: he's done it before. It. As we just said earlier,

569
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 2: Trump cannot win. And I know there are other things

570
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 2: going on, but Trump cannot win, and I think centering that, yeah, again,

571
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 2: it just makes it just sort of helps the chances

572
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 2: for Biden to just for everyone just be like fuck.

573
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 1: Like dig in on the current course because they're too scared.

574
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: They're like, well, wha you know.

575
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 2: I can't. I couldn't imagine, like and I know, like

576
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 2: there you hear hear more and more people saying like, oh,

577
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 2: I mean, like you got to consider what these polls

578
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 2: say when even Democrats are like, we'd prefer someone else

579
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 2: to run. Yeah, I don't know, it's just it's it's

580
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 2: but I just can't, like, I feel like if there

581
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 2: was a real appetite to find to find a different

582
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 2: candidate to run, that would have happened a long time ago, right,

583
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 2: And so I just feel like the advantage is to

584
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 2: the establ for the establishment is Biden runs again because

585
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 2: he's not going to rock the boat and they can

586
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 2: just rely on this like Trump is so dangerous narrative

587
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 2: to sort of ignore all the other really big issues

588
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 2: that we have aside from the major fucking catastrophe threat,

589
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 2: et cetera that looms over another Trump administration.

590
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let's let's talk Senator Bob Menendez. Oh yeah,

591
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: it's been indicted over a bribery scheme.

592
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 2: This is this has been simmering for a while about

593
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 2: what was going to happen with Senator Bob Andendez and

594
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 2: he was indicted. Okay, double LP world excited, as we

595
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 2: say here in this influenced scheme where the Senator was

596
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 2: going to you know, used his power and you know,

597
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 2: a fucking reputation to make some businessmen very rich while

598
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 2: also helping the Egyptian government. And you know, the senator

599
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 2: also apparently allegedly got some gifts too. They say. This

600
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 2: is from the report from NBC. Quote. The charges include

601
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 2: conspiracy to commit bribery, conspiracy to commit honest services fraud,

602
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 2: and conspiracy to commit extortion under color of official right.

603
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 2: What a fancy term Wow. The bribes the couple received.

604
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 2: This is Bob Menendez and his spouse included cash, gold bars,

605
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 2: pavements toward a home, mortgage, compensation for a low or

606
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 2: no show job, a luxury vehicle, and other items of value.

607
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 2: When they did when they like you know, did a

608
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 2: search or you know, searched his home last year, they

609
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 2: found over four hundred and eighty thousand dollars in cash

610
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 2: for him. Wow. And then his wife had like seventy

611
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 2: grand in cash like in a fucking like a safe

612
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 2: deposit box, but.

613
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: Like the envelopes and hidden in clothing closet and a.

614
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 2: Safe Yeah yeah, yeah, I mean Jack, those are details

615
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,520
Speaker 2: that I feel like just make Bob Menendez look more guilty.

616
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 2: And I want to be like the other big demo

617
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 2: old school democrats who have just been like what do

618
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 2: you think this is bad? Hon, They're like, oh, he,

619
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 2: Bob's gonna have to really think hard about the cloud

620
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 2: this is gonna put over his service.

621
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:12,720
Speaker 1: Should he resign?

622
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 2: Oh? I think it's too early to say something like that, right.

623
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 2: John Fetterman is the only senator that has called for

624
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 2: his resignation. Alexandria Kazo Cortez also and a few others

625
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 2: in the House have. But otherwise there's a lot of

626
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:31,560
Speaker 2: fucking mumbling going on on the Democrat side. Just half.

627
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,839
Speaker 2: I mean again, if true, but it seems like this

628
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 2: is I don't know, if there's just mistaken gold bars

629
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,919
Speaker 2: that he received for some other shit.

630
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:46,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, fucking he's dirty. A couple of gold bars laying

631
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 1: around your house. Come on, I.

632
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 2: Wish I had a fucking couple of gold bars laying

633
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 2: around and then maybe maybe I should be a fucking

634
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,400
Speaker 2: senator so I could know the feeling of holding gold

635
00:34:55,640 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 2: ingots uh in my fucking crusty little hands. But I mean, like,

636
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 2: it's just well, Menendez himself so far. I know he's

637
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 2: giving a press conference later today. He said I'm going nowhere, okay, wow,

638
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,839
Speaker 2: And but he did. He got he did get a

639
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 2: show of support from another upstanding member of Congress, George Santos.

640
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 2: It was like, we got to just let process play out, happen,

641
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:22,799
Speaker 2: the presumption of innocence here.

642
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 1: Wow, you know, are we just going to write who

643
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 1: you want?

644
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 2: Right? Yeah? So I'm like, I thought being bad. I

645
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:34,760
Speaker 2: thought getting indicted is bad Democrats because when it was Trump,

646
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 2: y'all were like, fuck terrible.

647
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, reminds me of the fact that Lauren Bobert and

648
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 1: the guy she was given the overpants hand job too,

649
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: we're both like bar owners and like he you know,

650
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: he was a Democrat and she was a Republican. But like,

651
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 1: the solidarity is with your fellow you know what, whatever,

652
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:01,080
Speaker 1: the like the people who have the same career and

653
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: income level as you, like, not with their political beliefs. Yeah,

654
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 1: that stuff's all flexible.

655
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 2: It'd be like that that meme from a predator, you know,

656
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 2: you son of a bitch. And they do like the

657
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,240
Speaker 2: two sides'es like Democrats Republicans, and the hand coming together

658
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 2: is their horniness as we saw there. But apparently they've

659
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 2: been dating for months and she's trying to be like

660
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 2: this looks like I need to just look at the

661
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 2: political beliefs of the people I date on dating apps.

662
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 2: So we will watch, we'll watch along as the Democrats

663
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:43,280
Speaker 2: continue to, you know, also exercise these baffling amounts of hypocrisy.

664
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let's take one more break and we'll

665
00:36:46,920 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 1: come back. And we're back. And the expend for blespend

666
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 1: spendables expended expend four balls foibles. Uh, so it hit

667
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 1: theaters with critics hailing it as the opposite of a

668
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 1: must see and an embarrassment for all involved. That's the

669
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 1: most fucked so mean.

670
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:28,759
Speaker 2: It's not even like scathing artsy ship, just like it's

671
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 2: the opposite of a m an embarrassment for all involved.

672
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:38,279
Speaker 2: Is so fucked up so much. I love but yeah,

673
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 2: go off, go off critics.

674
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 1: Yeah. So uh. Shockingly, it did not do well at

675
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 1: the box office. It made just eight point three million

676
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:50,280
Speaker 1: dollars over the weekend with a budget of one hundred

677
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 1: around one hundred million dollars. So and this was the

678
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 1: worst weekend at the box office so far this year.

679
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 1: I wonder if that had anything to do with suddenly

680
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 1: the studios being like, we got to get a deal here, folks,

681
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:11,000
Speaker 1: this is looking bleak. But I feel like all I

682
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:15,880
Speaker 1: needed to know about how this movie was going to

683
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: be received was like you you can go to the

684
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: Expendables character Wikipedia page and it has a chart with

685
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 1: like who is in each film and you got your

686
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:33,880
Speaker 1: Jason Statham slashed alone, Dolph Lunggren, Randy Coutour are all

687
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 1: are in all four that right. Jet Lee got off

688
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,439
Speaker 1: the bus after three. Terry Cruz got off the bus

689
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 1: after three. Arnold Schwarzenegger got off the bus after three

690
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:50,359
Speaker 1: was then the first three and he bailed, uh for expendables.

691
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,359
Speaker 1: Three they brought in like Wesley Snipes, They brought in

692
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:59,360
Speaker 1: you know, Ronda Rowsey, Antonio Banderaz, you know, they were

693
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 1: they were covering all the all the quadrants for that one.

694
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:09,440
Speaker 1: This time to replace Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jetly in a

695
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 1: movie about like iconic action heroes. Yeah, they brought in

696
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,240
Speaker 1: fifty cent and Megan Fox.

697
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:21,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean they did. Yeah. Yeah, I'll give Tony

698
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,399
Speaker 2: Jaws cool with Tony Jaw's back of Martial Arts ship,

699
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 2: but wow, fifty and Megan Fox.

700
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

701
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 2: And I heard also that Sylvester Stallone is barely in

702
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 2: this one, and he's like the reason this shit even happened,

703
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:36,800
Speaker 2: Like he's the co creator of this city. He directed

704
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,360
Speaker 2: the first one. Yeah, and like wrote I think the

705
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 2: first three or co wrote, right and and writing in

706
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 2: him and then this one apparently he was like not

707
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 2: don't want to do the for the one, so an embarrassment.

708
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 2: Everybody don't know that rights.

709
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 1: I don't know Dolphine projects, like dolph was was driving

710
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 1: the bus.

711
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, but I mean, I guess

712
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 2: it'll make its money outside of the US. It's like

713
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 2: where they mostly they've been making a lot.

714
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,920
Speaker 1: Of They made eighty percent of its money outside of

715
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 1: North America last time around, so they're hoping for a

716
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:13,280
Speaker 1: similar turn of events here. But it does it seems

717
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 1: to be kind of pretty pretty soggy everywhere.

718
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 2: I just feel like, yeah, it's also just such a

719
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 2: bad time for us to be celebrating elderly people with

720
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 2: too much power. Yeah right, it's just like what a

721
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 2: weird mad thematically, We're we're not really feeling this right now. Yeah,

722
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,680
Speaker 2: so I can. I also see that aspect of like

723
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 2: I'll give a fuck about Dolph Lungren and fucking so

724
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:38,760
Speaker 2: Jason stuff.

725
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 1: Fuck no, Yeah, it's like Space Cowboys if it was

726
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,279
Speaker 1: an action movie like that. That that's the premise is

727
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: like old people like have rights too, and they can

728
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,920
Speaker 1: still do stuff as like old people are about to

729
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,439
Speaker 1: like drive the country over the edge of a cliff.

730
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:58,840
Speaker 2: Right, and it's all like all old white guys mostly too. Dude,

731
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 2: Please please fucking did you see that one with like

732
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,840
Speaker 2: what was the one about the women who were like

733
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,759
Speaker 2: all into Tom Brady with like Lily Tomlin and Jane

734
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:12,680
Speaker 2: Fonda and shit for Brady. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I

735
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 2: felt like but I mean, like, was that like Hollywood's best?

736
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 2: Like was that then? Being like what if we did

737
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,879
Speaker 2: the Expendables but with women? Yeah, I think probably yeah,

738
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:27,520
Speaker 2: And we're gonna do this really fucking narrow read on

739
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 2: like I don't know, it's like fucking heteronormative thing, like

740
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 2: but they all fuck with Tom Brady. That's their fucking mutual.

741
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:41,239
Speaker 2: They're there, their unifying call. But yeah, I don't know.

742
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:45,200
Speaker 2: Space Cowboys was pretty bad and also way too long.

743
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,279
Speaker 2: I remember that shit was over two hours.

744
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,880
Speaker 1: I didn't I never saw a Space Cowboys. I was

745
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:54,400
Speaker 1: never never into the idea of like being told a

746
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:57,040
Speaker 1: story about people who are like too old for this ship.

747
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,040
Speaker 1: I was. I was good at lethal weapon like that.

748
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:00,680

754
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:14,720
Speaker 2: kind of one dimensional loyalty I have to people.

755
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,359

776
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:17,120
Speaker 1: Yeah?

777
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 2: And then I then I then I saw another one

778
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 2: that was like it's Ken Burns, and I'm like, this

779
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 2: is freaking so stupid.

780
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 1: But he's like I don't know them in that picture

781
00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: that I didn't even know the picture. I was just

782
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 1: walking by and my arms got stuck on their backs somehow.

783
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

784
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's a you know, this is a pro

785
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 1: PUBLICA report. Uh, and it detailed Thomas's particulars. Yeah, so exactly.

786
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,760
Speaker 1: They've got an axe to grind, That's all I'm saying.

787
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 1: But it details Clarence Thomas's close relationship with the Koch brothers,

788
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 1: which included speaking at their donor events, none of which

789
00:43:57,280 --> 00:44:00,360
Speaker 1: was disclosed. So that's an obvious violation of federal FLA.

790
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 1: But the images for the article has Thomas David Coke

791
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:09,040
Speaker 1: and then in between them, you know, like you said, no,

792
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 1: I feel like ken Burns is not a household face.

793
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 1: He's a household name. Yeah, and maybe a household hair

794
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:19,320
Speaker 1: do if you've ever seen him, because you can't forget

795
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 1: his hair. But yeah, so ken Burns started trending on

796
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:25,720
Speaker 1: social media and he was forced to issue a statement

797
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:30,479
Speaker 1: distancing himself as much as humanly possible from Thomas and Coke.

798
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,320
Speaker 1: And he claimed that he only met Thomas when taking

799
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:36,239
Speaker 1: that photo and only knew Coke because he was a

800
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:38,719
Speaker 1: supporter of public television.

801
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 2: Which what an interesting fucking description.

802
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's just a guy just loves public TV.

803
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,759
Speaker 2: Oh wait, he does other stuff. What? Oh, I didn't know.

804
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 1: I've never heard of the other shop.

805
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 2: I just know him as a great patron of the arts.

806
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:59,399
Speaker 1: I was too busy researching baseball and jazz, so did.

807
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:01,320
Speaker 2: His name all come up to be fair?

808
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 1: So, but that support for public television does not extend

809
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 1: to documentaries about the Koch brothers. They allegedly killed a

810
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 1: deal between Public Television backers and the documentary Citizen Coke

811
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:21,719
Speaker 1: back in twenty thirteen. Yeah, the documentary showed at the

812
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:26,759
Speaker 1: Wisconsin Film Festival in April, and then immediately it was

813
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:31,680
Speaker 1: announced that Public Television Backers were pulling their funding because

814
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 1: who knows why. It's impossible to say, but just a

815
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 1: great example of the sort of MPR neoliberalism and the

816
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:47,000
Speaker 1: problems inherent in it that they expect capitalism to fix.

817
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 1: The problems of capitalism.

818
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I like you did a little bit

819
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,640
Speaker 2: of cockney there, a bit the problems inherent in it,

820
00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:57,480
Speaker 2: in it I've been watching toomuch, top boy. It's just

821
00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:00,839
Speaker 2: again we have a fucking sitting Supreme Court justice who

822
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:08,480
Speaker 2: is the like fundraiser headliner for these fucking fucking goblin

823
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 2: people and the Koch brothers. Yeah, and then they're the

824
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:14,800
Speaker 2: ones seeing fucking over like they're presiding over the cases

825
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 2: that directly relate to these people. It's just I don't yeah,

826
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:21,080
Speaker 2: I don't know. But Trump can't win.

827
00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:23,719
Speaker 1: But that's the important thing.

828
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 2: Focused on that, guys. That's it. It's one issue and

829
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 2: it's Trump can't win. Let's not we'll fucking we'll get

830
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,160
Speaker 2: to the other stuff once he's out of the way. Yeah,

831
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,960
Speaker 2: and we I wouldn't be surprised if the Democrats invested

832
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:38,040
Speaker 2: in technology to keep Trump alive forever, just like you know,

833
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:41,400
Speaker 2: he's running in twenty twenty eight. You already know twenty

834
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:43,200
Speaker 2: thirty two, twenty thirty six.

835
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,440
Speaker 1: But we are at the you know, in the midst.

836
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 1: Maybe I shouldn't say at the end, but we're in

837
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:54,759
Speaker 1: the midst of the longest run of very positive legislation

838
00:46:55,200 --> 00:47:00,080
Speaker 1: and Supreme Court findings for the extremely wealthy. Yeah, you

839
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:04,880
Speaker 1: wouldn't know it because of like astroturfed bullshit, like you know,

840
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 1: the Tea Party and you know Libertarians and you know

841
00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 1: people like that. But they have had the they've paid

842
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:17,560
Speaker 1: the least taxes that they've ever paid because of shit

843
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:21,839
Speaker 1: like this, just like very strategic relationships with the people

844
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 1: who are ultimately making the decisions, and then you know,

845
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:30,120
Speaker 1: those decisions have ripple effects where they make it harder

846
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:34,640
Speaker 1: to regulate the billionaires, and then the billionaires use the

847
00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:39,319
Speaker 1: lack of legislation and regulation to then influence more decisions

848
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:43,719
Speaker 1: until we have this out of control crazy system that

849
00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:44,439
Speaker 1: we have right now.

850
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:48,160
Speaker 2: We need ethics reform, folks. We got to really sort

851
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,040
Speaker 2: out the Supreme Court. But I don't know, it's like

852
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 2: the way Alido talks, He's like, yeah, come for me.

853
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, this idea that like you can have, like you're

854
00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 1: the strategy for the left side can be Well, if

855
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,560
Speaker 1: we just get this big donation from the Koch brothers,

856
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 1: we can continue doing journalism that is broadly critical of

857
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:11,600
Speaker 1: the system that gives the Koch brothers immense power, and

858
00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:15,320
Speaker 1: it just ends up just being liberal at a surface

859
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:19,879
Speaker 1: level without you know, and the ability to even can't

860
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:21,879
Speaker 1: even have the courage of your convictions to put out

861
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:26,360
Speaker 1: a documentary that is critical of like the Nazi oil billionacres.

862
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,239
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, they're allowing us to do really great

863
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:34,799
Speaker 2: stuff about baseball, you know, so we got to you
