Speaker 3: but hey, do what you got to.
Speaker 1: You're always going to find the best ones when last
Speaker 1: minute is appended at the beginning of your Google search.
Speaker 2: In a bad way. Here, what do I do? What
Speaker 2: do I do?
Speaker 1: Oh? Boy? But one thing to do? So when if
Speaker 1: you're going out to dinner for your or lunch.
Speaker 4: Bunch or bunch brunch is a great that's the one
Speaker 4: they do.
Speaker 1: Uh, try to be kind to the restaurant workers.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because according to.
Speaker 1: The CNN article, and we trust CNM for everything, don't
Speaker 1: we find we love them, We love them don't we find.
Speaker 1: According to this chef's servers and owners have said that
Speaker 1: Mother's Day is one of the worst days to work
Speaker 1: at restaurant because the expectations are high. There's a lot
Speaker 1: of people coming through. Everybody's feeling the presh of performing.
Speaker 4: At a high level for their mommies.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they just say people show up like incomplete parties,
Speaker 3: impossible ways of splitting checks, people who like to hover
Speaker 3: over their last bits of like dessert or coffee.
Speaker 4: It's just like, come on.
Speaker 3: And also, man, they say the worst part is because
Speaker 3: of inflation and the rising costs. It's basically naturally people
Speaker 3: are gonna be like, well, if I'm paying forty five
Speaker 3: dollars for a waffle, this shit better have gold on it,
Speaker 3: and you better come out tap dancing with this shit.
Speaker 3: And there's like this one chef who used to be
Speaker 3: Oprah and Jeb Bush's personal chef, was just talking about
Speaker 3: having general Yeah, Oprah and Jeb Bush. I mean it
Speaker 3: shows you at the end of the day, not much
Speaker 3: separating them. Just need a lot of money, folks.
Speaker 1: Does there's a point in the nineties where a lot
Speaker 1: of people thought that was going to be like twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four Oprah versus Jeb Bush Rush the presidential election. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and we went in a worst timeline somehow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I like how this one, this one chef
Speaker 3: was just saying, like people just COVID has taste, like
Speaker 3: changed people's tastes, and they just want more.
Speaker 4: It's like, if it's they want more carbs, if it's
Speaker 4: mac and cheese, it.
Speaker 3: Has to be the cheesiest they're drinking too, they want
Speaker 3: more salads.
Speaker 4: Sounds very stressful.
Speaker 3: So I will be very kind to the servers and
Speaker 3: restaurant staff when I am one of the just innumerable
Speaker 3: hordes descending upon.
Speaker 4: A restaurant on Sunday for a brunch.
Speaker 1: There you go, there's a Russian mega village.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're talking about it, man, what would that be?
Speaker 3: So in Russia, they're basically constructing a village just outside
Speaker 3: of Moscow for quote conservative minded Americans and Canadians. Interesting,
Speaker 3: is the state run media said. And basically they're saying
Speaker 3: like Russia has for years positioned itself as a bastion
Speaker 3: of quote traditional values in contrast with Western liberalism, as
Speaker 3: its relations with the West have deteriorated.
Speaker 4: Blah blah blah.
Speaker 3: So one of the migration lawyers of like this, Like
Speaker 3: who's associated with this is saying that there's around two
Speaker 3: hundred families that want to immigrate to Russia for idiological
Speaker 3: reasons Jesus, And I.
Speaker 4: Don't know how real that.
Speaker 3: I mean, I know there's definitely a group of people
Speaker 3: who are like you can tell like with how there's
Speaker 3: a lack of criticism about Russia or Putin, how many
Speaker 3: were like, man, rather live.
Speaker 1: In Russia, right, So you're not going to invite me
Speaker 1: to Thanksgiving anyways?
Speaker 2: So we're moving to Russia. Me and your mother are
Speaker 2: moving to Russia.
Speaker 4: Any other questions.
Speaker 2: That's what I thought.
Speaker 3: But apparently like this is also going to come at
Speaker 3: the cost of the people who want to move there,
Speaker 3: Like they're being like, hey, if we move there, can
Speaker 3: we like help build this cool place?
Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, go ahead, man, we don't need you here.
Speaker 1: And vivek Ramaswami, Republican presidential hopeful on Thursday, voice support
Speaker 1: for changing the overall US voting age to twenty five
Speaker 1: unless younger Americans fulfill at least six months of service
Speaker 1: in the military or as a first responder.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: It basically this would help eliminate a few million voters
Speaker 3: who probably aren't on board with the GOP right. And
Speaker 3: we've talked about something around four million gen Z Americans,
Speaker 3: you know, will be voting age for the twenty twenty
Speaker 3: four presidential election.
Speaker 2: And that's they're not fans of that.
Speaker 4: They're looking at.
Speaker 3: That, they're like, why can't we just find four million
Speaker 3: ethno nationalists that we didn't discover before.
Speaker 4: Who want to vote.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but so yeah, we're continuing to see them continue
Speaker 3: that like really dumb campaign to be like, we gotta
Speaker 3: raise the voting age.
Speaker 1: Well, I gotta make up for all the people that
Speaker 1: are losing to that Russian village. You know, those people
Speaker 1: aren't going to be able to vote in US presidential elections.
Speaker 4: For people who are like I don't need a vaccine
Speaker 4: cut to They.
Speaker 2: Did, they did, turns out they did.
Speaker 4: All right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back,
Speaker 4: and we're.
Speaker 1: Back and Egen Carol May sue Trump a third time
Speaker 1: after his vile comments on the CNN town hall, which
Speaker 1: I missed that that happened when I was out, But
Speaker 1: apparently it was just like a long Trump jazz fest.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it was. It was pretty nonsensical. But again,
Speaker 3: I think Trump loved it. He's already talking about how
Speaker 3: much he loves CNN. Yeah, because they let him go
Speaker 3: on there and just do lives for however many hours.
Speaker 3: But yeah, he kept, you know, he kept. He went
Speaker 3: right back to it and was like, yeah, she made
Speaker 3: it up. It's all nonsense. So I said it was
Speaker 3: a rig deal. And I think many lawyers are like,
Speaker 3: h I'd take another bite of that apple.
Speaker 4: Yeah, legally he can't do that.
Speaker 1: But yeah, like I guess his whole thing is doing
Speaker 1: the thing that he's legally not.
Speaker 4: I guess another defamation case for you.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean I think, like now, if the
Speaker 3: reporting seems to be that the higher ups at CNN
Speaker 3: are really they're dealing with angry staffers who did not
Speaker 3: like what they did with that town hall meeting.
Speaker 1: Yeah whatever, I mean in their response like we we
Speaker 1: made news. That's great, We're making the news. It's like
Speaker 1: that's not you're supposed to report news. You're not supposed
Speaker 1: to be making news.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I just have Misinformation Fest twenty twenty three.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think I think was probably more
Speaker 3: upsetting for people. And I get that, you know, it's like,
Speaker 3: why are they platforming it's that when you saw that,
Speaker 3: you're like, oh no, and we said this yesterday on
Speaker 3: trends like his his power is not waning among those people. No,
Speaker 3: And I think that's probably what freaks people out more
Speaker 3: than like saying it's not CNN's fault that there's a
Speaker 3: group of people who are into his full populism.
Speaker 4: But hey, that's where we are.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is where we are.
Speaker 1: It feels like, I don't know, the past couple weeks,
Speaker 1: for some reason, have have felt like there's been an.
Speaker 2: Overall shift towards Yeah, we might be.
Speaker 1: Looking at another Trump administration pretty fucking wild.
Speaker 4: Who knows.
Speaker 2: I mean, we'll see, we'll see how we'.
Speaker 4: Se how lazy the DNC is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this going. I mean, I think we know how
Speaker 2: lazy they are.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not because they're.
Speaker 3: Basically like like scaring anyone who wants to primary Biden
Speaker 3: away with like a hot poker.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a good headline the BBC.
Speaker 1: This is like the not the onion headline of the
Speaker 1: day Lockness monster a hunter. I thought this job would
Speaker 1: be easier. And this is not satire. This is an
Speaker 1: actual person who quit their job in like nineteen ninety
Speaker 1: to hunt the Lockness Monster nineteen ninety one and now
Speaker 1: after thirty years of searching for NeSSI. He said he
Speaker 1: thought the task would be easier. He made his first
Speaker 1: sighting of something unexplained within his first year of his search,
Speaker 1: and since then it's been tough.
Speaker 2: It's been crickets. Oh no, I.
Speaker 1: Had one glimpse of something like a torpedo going through
Speaker 1: the water.
Speaker 2: I did think this.
Speaker 1: Job was going to be easier, as I had a
Speaker 1: sighting in the first year, and I thought it wouldn't
Speaker 1: be long until a second sighting would come along. And
Speaker 1: that is where I'm stopped at the moment, at that moment,
Speaker 1: still waiting for that second glimpse of something unexplained. Oh
Speaker 1: at least it's like honesty. Yeah, I saw I saw
Speaker 1: a thing, and since then not so.
Speaker 3: Much like an American would not say this. I thought
Speaker 3: it was I thought it would be easy. They would
Speaker 3: never cop to that. It'd be like yeah, man, because
Speaker 3: probably Obama actually had it, you know, fucking extracted to
Speaker 3: a CIA black site.
Speaker 4: And that's why I can't see it. I mean, they
Speaker 4: would have gone full scammera by now, an American.
Speaker 2: Like they would.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1: They would have a Discovery Channel show called Hunting Nassy
Speaker 1: with like a bunch of fake sightings and stuff.
Speaker 2: I feel like this person's.
Speaker 1: Just like hard bitten, get waken up every morning, just
Speaker 1: be like maybe today is my day?
Speaker 2: Right? Yeah?
Speaker 4: I think Yeah. Brian and Victor are both asking like,
Speaker 4: how did he make money doing this?
Speaker 2: Who knows?
Speaker 1: Peloton is recalling two million bikes? Who because dang seats.
Speaker 4: Keep falling off.
Speaker 1: They took that note of like a seat that falls
Speaker 1: off from the focus group testing.
Speaker 2: Oh of course. Yeah.
Speaker 3: And now they're like, yeah, it turns out they are
Speaker 3: breaking off and hurting people. O. God, yeah, it's not good,
Speaker 3: Like a lot of people are breaking their wrists.
Speaker 1: And shiit thirty five reports of the seat post breaking
Speaker 1: and detaching from the bike during use, and yeah, shattered
Speaker 1: wrists and.
Speaker 4: That's fucked up.
Speaker 3: And it's apparently like every bike like that was sold
Speaker 3: from the beginning up until now or some shit of
Speaker 3: the of the regular bike. If you have like the
Speaker 3: bike plus then it's not so much an issue. But yeah,
Speaker 3: now they're like, hey, man, call us up. We'll come
Speaker 3: by with a free bike post, a seat post for you.
Speaker 2: Oh boy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And so mister yeast, I guess bought a bunch
Speaker 1: of houses in the same cul de sac, leading people
Speaker 1: to start talking again about the wealthy and the famous
Speaker 1: buying towns orighborhoods. So he bought a whole North Carolina
Speaker 1: neighborhood for himself and his employees, like a company town
Speaker 1: for content influencers. So our writer Jam reminded us of
Speaker 1: the time. Do you remember when Kim Basinger bought a
Speaker 1: town in Georgia?
Speaker 4: Didn't hasn't everyone didn't.
Speaker 3: Bruce Willis buy Atack like so many people by that
Speaker 3: didn't go well, But yeah, Kim Basinger one went really badly.
Speaker 1: So she bought a town back in nineteen eighty nine
Speaker 1: and then like had to file for bankruptcy like a
Speaker 1: couple of years later. It really was like, it's the
Speaker 1: inspiration for Shit's Creek, just the idea of selling an
Speaker 1: entire town, which shouldn't be a thing that's possible, right,
Speaker 1: It's like an incorporated thing, Like you can't just like
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, this person came through and bought like
Speaker 1: your house now belongs to this one rich person. But
Speaker 1: I guess, for whatever reason, they were able to do
Speaker 1: that in this one stop light town in Brazilton, Georgia,
Speaker 1: and then you know, she got sued for she was
Speaker 1: supposed to be in the movie Boxing Helena and like
Speaker 1: bailed on it and then like lost in court. They
Speaker 1: like sued her for not showing up when she was
Speaker 1: supposed to or whatever, and lost seven point five and
Speaker 1: had to declare bankruptcy. Like the people of the town
Speaker 1: were like, wait, what's going to happen to us now?
Speaker 5: Right?
Speaker 2: It's like one of those things like maybe towns.
Speaker 1: Shouldn't be a thing that a single person could own.
Speaker 1: But it was the late eighties, early nineties, you know,
Speaker 1: it was coming off of Reagan and Bush one and yeah,
Speaker 1: you know privatization, everything was gonna work.
Speaker 3: And likely all the money of the twenty million dollars
Speaker 3: that used to purchase it came from the pension fund
Speaker 3: of the Ameriatech Corporation.
Speaker 5: Yeah, what at is just the face of like a
Speaker 5: private equity company or like, you know whatever Ameriatech is
Speaker 5: what wanted to buy a town and who knows.
Speaker 3: When you started off this story, I thought you were
Speaker 3: gonna do that bit, and you're like, I don't know,
Speaker 3: like I don't know how to say this.
Speaker 4: Kim Bassinger Basinger.
Speaker 2: What show is that from?
Speaker 3: Is that from Arrested Development. It's like a doctor that
Speaker 3: comes in. It's like a it's like a stupid comedy bit.
Speaker 3: I think it's a doctor comes into like a room
Speaker 3: to talk about page like I'm sorry, I just I
Speaker 3: don't know how to say this, and what Kim Kim
Speaker 3: Basinger Bassinger. I think it might be family guy or
Speaker 3: some ship anyway. Anyways, that's all I can think of.
Speaker 3: That's what I got. That's what I got. Don't buy towns,
Speaker 3: I mean apparently like he's just buying like a bunch
Speaker 3: of houses on this cul de sact. He's not doing
Speaker 3: the thing where he's like I own the town, I'm
Speaker 3: just gonna own a.
Speaker 4: Section of it, right, And everyone's like he's so humble.
Speaker 2: It's like, mister Beast, so humble. I get it.
Speaker 3: You're not moving out to La and you're living in
Speaker 3: the hills and ship like crashing your tesla and like
Speaker 3: Silver Lake or something every day. So whatever, he's one
Speaker 3: of he's one of our benevolent YouTube gods who makes
Speaker 3: it rain cash on the poor people.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, all right.
Speaker 1: Those are some of the things that are trending on
Speaker 1: this Friday afternoon. We are back on Monday with the
Speaker 1: whole last episode of the show. Until then, be kind
Speaker 1: to each other, be kind to yourselves, get the vaccine,
Speaker 1: don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we will talk
Speaker 1: to you all on Monday.
Speaker 2: Bye. Stay woke.
