Speaker 2: Day, so what if we're trying to kneecap at the
Speaker 2: FDA and CDC and National Make a Friend Day, say
Speaker 2: don't cry over spilled milk is just a just a
Speaker 2: thing to tell you not to cry over something that
Speaker 2: already happened. It's like a real, real abuse or logic.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, but that should already happen. So why
Speaker 2: are you crying over it? You just did it and
Speaker 2: it still hurts. There's no changing what is done. Maybe
Speaker 2: that is the better version, like Yoda, mind set yourself
Speaker 2: into like being accepting abuse and terrible treatment.

Speaker 3: that flying actually comes from the seventeenth century, which is

Speaker 2: no pants, but still got the hydrogen atom betwixt my eyes.
Speaker 2: M you gotta stop looking at it with both eyes.
Speaker 2: It is Yeah.
Speaker 3: Has there ever been someone whose eyes who crossed their
Speaker 3: eyes and it's stuck? That's just a lie. That's just
Speaker 3: a lie you tell kids.
Speaker 2: I believe that is one of the most common things
Speaker 2: to happen, based on my understanding of human anatomy from kindergarten.
Speaker 2: That shit happens all the time. People will accidentally get
Speaker 2: hit on the back and they're stuck, not going away.
Speaker 2: My six year old likes to cross his eyes for
Speaker 2: comedic effect, and I don't know. I guess I just
Speaker 2: need to like look it up to figure out if
Speaker 2: it if it is actually dangerous, because a part of
Speaker 2: me is like, oh no, that's going to stay that way.
Speaker 2: Your ocular independence. Yes, his eyes are too free, they're
Speaker 2: too independent. I don't like it. Miles. We're thrilled to
Speaker 2: be joined in our third seat by a t d
Speaker 2: Z Hall of Fame or one of the very faces
Speaker 2: on the Mounta site. A brilliant stand up comedian you
Speaker 2: know from MTV, Comedy Central, NBC, True TV, all the
Speaker 2: all the TV places. You've heard her on, Bob's Burgers.
Speaker 2: Her Our Special Life from The Big Dog is absolutely hilarious.
Speaker 2: I must watch It's flair socking.
Speaker 1: What zi gang o?
Speaker 2: God, I can see that energy, right.
Speaker 1: They're so good to be back.
Speaker 2: Yeah my god.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: The ship catching.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Oh that was so good. While it was really hard
Speaker 1: for me to stay silent during the eye crossing conversation
Speaker 1: because I love to cross my eyes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, also for comedic effect.
Speaker 1: Only I do it on I do it on stage
Speaker 1: all the time. I love it, dude. But it is
Speaker 1: odd that children have a proclivity for it because it
Speaker 1: is wildly uncomfortable.
Speaker 2: I remember when I had to train. I remember not
Speaker 2: knowing how to cross my eyes and my dad was like,
Speaker 2: take your finger and just faollow it fall. And Dad
Speaker 2: taught you how to and this is saw you.
Speaker 1: A lot of important stuff, like he taught you about rain. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I was like, where's you that. I've never heard
Speaker 1: a man know about rain? And he told you about it?
Speaker 3: Oh talking about terror rock Yeah yeah, yeah, you know incredible.
Speaker 2: We are evolved human beings.
Speaker 3: The great the Gray family, Yes, absolutely also taught me
Speaker 3: when again I always talked about this. When I first
Speaker 3: saw like an unhoused person and could like articulate what was.
Speaker 2: Going on, I'm like, what, what, what's wrong? My dad
Speaker 2: said Ronald Reagan? So the this is Reagan from that mind,
Speaker 2: it was just a podcast host.
Speaker 1: He is able to really just steal things down so simply,
Speaker 1: I guess.
Speaker 2: That I have. Yeah, I have taken on in my
Speaker 2: own way. So the Gray Men sequel to Netflix is.
Speaker 1: The Man And Happy Birthday to Jim.
Speaker 2: Yeah, big Jim, jungle gym my friends I used to
Speaker 2: He didn't like it because he'd crawl all over and
Speaker 2: I'll call me that jungle arms out. Let's swing on
Speaker 2: him in high school, hule Jim, and because we crawled
Speaker 2: all over him.
Speaker 1: Right, Oh that's sweet, Claire.
Speaker 3: Last time you were here, you were preparing for a procedure.
Speaker 3: You were saying you had to get a procedure. You're
Speaker 3: you had operation, and you're fine. I can hear your voice.
Speaker 3: Everyone can tell you of you are on the other
Speaker 3: side of it. You are doing well, You're thriving.
Speaker 1: Oh, thank you for remembering. Yeah, you know what's funny.
Speaker 1: I had a little bit of like vulnerability hangover after
Speaker 1: that podcast. But I was so like fired up and
Speaker 1: upset about it. I was like, I really revealed a
Speaker 1: lot that day. But yeah, I did have the surgery.
Speaker 1: It was this the lead up was scarier than the
Speaker 1: actual thing. I went through the whole recovery and we're
Speaker 1: all good.
Speaker 2: Beautiful love that. Yeah, we love to hear. Yeah, thanks,
Speaker 2: we love good news on this show. Yeah we do.
Speaker 2: We need every single last drop that we can. Absolutely. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 2: we're thrilled to have you here, Blair. We're going to
Speaker 2: get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First,
Speaker 2: we're going to tell the listeners a couple of things
Speaker 2: that we're talking about later on, we're going to talk
Speaker 2: about just what's been going on with the Trump administration
Speaker 2: in the last few days and how the Democrats are responding.
Speaker 2: We're going to talk about it being that there's a
Speaker 2: new type of movie that I don't think existed when
Speaker 2: I was growing up, where it's like a movie that
Speaker 2: exists but does not get released, just gets hidden forever.
Speaker 2: And so we're going to talk about that because there's
Speaker 2: two new ones, one of which sounds really good, and
Speaker 2: I'm really upset that we're not going to get to
Speaker 2: see it. All of that plenty more. But first, Blair,
Speaker 2: we do like to ask, Sorry I didn't mean to
Speaker 2: sound so danger First, Blair, I do like to ask
Speaker 2: our guests, what is something from your search history that's
Speaker 2: revealing about who you are? Oh?
Speaker 1: Well, I thought it was my very last thing that I.
Speaker 2: Searched, and that yeah, that's great too.
Speaker 1: A restaurant called Curry Pinch that I saw when it
Speaker 1: was driving.
Speaker 2: By Nice and that's you saw something.
Speaker 1: And it looks like because it hasn't. I just saw
Speaker 1: the sign, but they were like redoing the restaurant to
Speaker 1: put it in, so it's not in yet. And I said, hmm,
Speaker 1: that just buy me. What's that all about. It turns
Speaker 1: out it's some new Sri Lankan cuisine and I'll be
Speaker 1: sure to hit it up.
Speaker 2: That is a level of follow through, a level of uh,
Speaker 2: you know, clarity of mind that I never would not
Speaker 2: have from seeing a seeing something to like getting back
Speaker 2: home and googling it, unless were you googling while driving?
Speaker 2: Oh are you? Siri?
Speaker 1: Totally used Siria the.
Speaker 2: Hands free I always do that. I always do that
Speaker 2: with bumper stickers. Oh I don't understand. Yeah, yeah, Einstein
Speaker 2: really say this ship? Nope, Yeah, of the Einstein bumper sticks.
Speaker 3: When I saw one that said that's some dude in
Speaker 3: a Cadillac, only said I'm non bidenary, Like.
Speaker 2: What could they possibly mean? Yeah, google this.
Speaker 1: I just had a crazy reaction.
Speaker 2: Yeah, look it happens.
Speaker 1: I'm not a big pun guy. That's just who I am.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, with you, they're so funny.
Speaker 1: I know my dad, Well, it's like my dad is
Speaker 1: obsessed with puns and it's it really makes me laugh
Speaker 1: when he does it. But it just doesn't feel authentic
Speaker 1: to me.
Speaker 2: Right, Oh oh that's not your those aren't your comedic stylings.
Speaker 3: Sure, when you've been like, have you ever you know,
Speaker 3: dated someone who's really into puns and you do, you
Speaker 3: just go.
Speaker 1: Like, oh my god, I can't say that I have.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, you know, like a visceral reaction to
Speaker 3: someone getting.
Speaker 1: Their I don't find I don't anticipate that happening for me,
Speaker 1: but we'll.
Speaker 2: See, no cause I know some people who like get
Speaker 2: incensed from my hearing puns, like oh my god, okay, fine,
Speaker 2: great other.
Speaker 1: Pun I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. I listen to children's podcasts with my kids
Speaker 2: sometimes in the car, and they.
Speaker 3: Are sometimes just heavy, right I said sometimes, you said,
Speaker 3: sometimes with my kids in the car, and like sometimes
Speaker 3: just me.
Speaker 2: Sometimes just me. They actually, you know, you learn some
Speaker 2: interesting stuff that they're they're read teaching kids about science,
Speaker 2: and I'm like, didn't learn it the first time, So
Speaker 2: that's yeah. But yeah, every time they make a pun,
Speaker 2: I feel a little tired, like a little more tired
Speaker 2: in my soul, just like tired and in a way
Speaker 2: that I will never recover from, you know, right, just
Speaker 2: like I've lost I've lost some life force from having
Speaker 2: Endura another one of these puns.
Speaker 1: I didn't even know they were children's podcast. So yeah,
Speaker 1: a lot today already.
Speaker 2: Brands to brains on shout out to what's the other one? Uh?
Speaker 2: Wild interest, Miss Rael. I don't know if this Rachel
Speaker 2: has a podcast, you should reach out to miss Rachel, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: What is something Blair you think is underrated? Oh?
Speaker 1: Koreans skin skincare obsess love it, a whole new world,
Speaker 1: endless possibilities. I find out about something new on TikTok
Speaker 1: every day brings me incredible joy. Also, Uh, Traders, I
Speaker 1: love the show The Traders.
Speaker 2: And I'm hearing a lot about Traders these days.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Severance, but I think a lot of people
Speaker 1: have the show.
Speaker 2: Jack. Not what you're hearing on Fox now. I'm hearing
Speaker 2: a lot about what the Democrats and the Biden family
Speaker 2: were getting up to and got.
Speaker 3: Up to and that Alan Cumming bastard also right now.
Speaker 1: But I'm so into Severance, like I'm in I'm listening
Speaker 1: to podcasts about it, like I'm in deep.
Speaker 2: There you go the behind the making of one with
Speaker 2: like Adam Scott or like fan theory ones.
Speaker 1: No, I tried that one, but then I found a
Speaker 1: better one that like does such an in depth recap,
Speaker 1: but and then they have a second one that week
Speaker 1: that like goes through all the theories. It's really good.
Speaker 1: Oh it's called a we Know Severance.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we Know sever mm hmm.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I love when it's always funny, Like I love when
Speaker 3: a show gets you. You get so into it you're like,
Speaker 3: now I have to listen to all the podcasts about it.
Speaker 3: That's how it was a Chernobyl.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Patricia right, wasn't that? Oh No, that wasn't No,
Speaker 1: she wasn't escape to Dona Bia.
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't tell.
Speaker 1: And also I started getting.
Speaker 2: Into chat because of reference. You started getting into chat
Speaker 2: GBT from we Know Severans No.
Speaker 1: Just from Severance because like I miss so much even
Speaker 1: just because there's such intense metaphor on that show that
Speaker 1: I that I end up asking chat GBT like a
Speaker 1: million questions just to try and clarify in my mind,
Speaker 1: and then how do.
Speaker 2: They do do they? Like, so, give me an example
Speaker 2: of a question you've asked chat GPT about severance? What
Speaker 2: time is severance on? And it totally sucked it up before.
Speaker 1: I don't know who's caught up or anything. I don't
Speaker 1: want to make any spoiler spoiler, accidental spoiler warning, not
Speaker 1: intentional for.
Speaker 3: What this season, So so people know, okay, I've just
Speaker 3: you've been warned, you've been warned, E've been warned.
Speaker 2: Spoiler potentially.
Speaker 1: But like I, before we knew that uh Helly was
Speaker 1: actually Helena, I was like like three or four episodes ago,
Speaker 1: was like asking chatchabt like could this potentially be happening?
Speaker 1: Like and then you know, go back and forth, and
Speaker 1: I never had any desire to use chatchybat but it
Speaker 1: worked quite well.
Speaker 2: Wow, they were and they were just so you're just
Speaker 2: like bouncing fan theories and they're like, yeah, I mean, damn,
Speaker 2: that's interesting, Okay, it could be. It's pretty I never
Speaker 2: never looked at it that way. That's actually pretty sick.
Speaker 2: Does talk like that?
Speaker 1: It actually it's like, wow, that's a really smart observation
Speaker 1: you have really a lot of emotional depth to you.
Speaker 1: It says ship like that. I'm like, thanks, bitch, you know.
Speaker 2: That's pretty cool. Yeah, your smoked too, that's all. That's all.
Speaker 2: I just want to say, Jack, they'll kill you. I'm
Speaker 2: working on my relationship with chat GPT or little Crazy
Speaker 2: right now.
Speaker 1: A lot of people are using it for therapy. That's
Speaker 1: pretty crazy.
Speaker 2: That is what is something you think is overrated?
Speaker 1: Sam as Gary and Tom Sandebal on Traders. Tom Sandibal like,
Speaker 1: you know, he has a place because he's sort of
Speaker 1: like and I hate to use this term, but he's
Speaker 1: like lovable, fun to hate or I wish I had
Speaker 1: another word. I don't hate him, yeah, as a person.
Speaker 1: And then Sam as Gary makes me really mad that
Speaker 1: he's even on the show. I'm so upset he hasn't
Speaker 1: spoken once in seven episodes, like and he's just making
Speaker 1: one hundred grand for being Britney's X. It just makes
Speaker 1: me mad he's on there, right, Okay.
Speaker 2: So Sam a Scar is Britney's ex husband and Tom
Speaker 2: Sandobal is from vander Pump Rules.
Speaker 1: And famously Yeah cheated with Raquel after nine years in
Speaker 1: his common law wife's home that.
Speaker 2: He shared with her kind of like did it for
Speaker 2: the content? Is my sense that he was just like
Speaker 2: I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I don't think he's I think he's too dumb to
Speaker 1: think about that. But yeah, he got caught. We let
Speaker 1: me feel that. But it is so weird seeing him
Speaker 1: on Traders because like he seriously has no idea what's
Speaker 1: going on or what the hell he's doing.
Speaker 2: Is just so confused that he's like still around. He's
Speaker 2: not like immediately bounced, no sp.
Speaker 1: Because everyone's like he's definitely not a Trader.
Speaker 2: Traders is like there's multiple games. There's multiple games, like
Speaker 2: it's not just a single like the way I've heard
Speaker 2: it described is like the way that like Survivor you
Speaker 2: can kind of like scheme for and everybody learns to
Speaker 2: play the game and everybody kind of plays it the
Speaker 2: same way. Like Traders is like a little bit more
Speaker 2: like constantly evolving, and it's it's like there's molds, right,
Speaker 2: or there's Traders within the house, and it's like you're
Speaker 2: trying to figure.
Speaker 1: It figure Mafia. It's like, yeah, it's like Mafia. It's
Speaker 1: really good that I love it, And Alan Cumming is hilarious,
Speaker 1: such a good.
Speaker 2: Host, yeah, one of our best character actors, well, not Hours,
Speaker 2: but Earth's you know, American human species. Yeah, I didn't
Speaker 2: want to speak for Scotland Miles. Are you watching Traders? No, No,
Speaker 2: it's they're talking about a lot on last Culturistas, and
Speaker 2: Anna Josnia has been really being like just is mad
Speaker 2: at me every time she brings it up, and I haven't, like,
Speaker 2: I'm like, I still haven't like.
Speaker 3: House burned down in a wildfire. It's the perfect defense.
Speaker 3: She's like, wow, if you watch that now, no fire,
Speaker 3: She's like, oh right, right, right, right, Jack.
Speaker 2: And when you say no, she's like, you fucking idiot.
Speaker 1: It is so good though, I love it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean everyone I know watches it. Uh, it's
Speaker 3: just like we're just in this era where there's just
Speaker 3: too many things to watch that. Uh you know, I
Speaker 3: her messy and I watched Speed last night to just
Speaker 3: be like, yeah watch yeah Pallet Cleanser exactly.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But you guys are like married and have children and
Speaker 1: stuff like, I don't have any responsibility.
Speaker 2: So people your parents who also with Traders, it's not
Speaker 2: an excuse. I have no excuse. I have no excuse. Laziness,
Speaker 2: that's my excuse.
Speaker 3: And I'm sure I like it because I love seeing
Speaker 3: sort of social engineering type things like this where it's
Speaker 3: really about how like sort of cunning people are too
Speaker 3: that I am.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And it's just like these wild personalities from
Speaker 1: all different shows and just everyone is, you know, these
Speaker 1: wild reality TV personalities and seeing them in this environment
Speaker 1: when you know them from another environment is a thing.
Speaker 1: It's exciting.
Speaker 2: I like that, it's smart like that. That was the
Speaker 2: thing that Real World road Rules Challenge like did. They
Speaker 2: would like they found a like NBA that like the
Speaker 2: cast members of Real World and road Rules were like
Speaker 2: feeding into you know, like the professional League that people
Speaker 2: could then like watch watch them, and like this just
Speaker 2: does that with all of reality TV, right, It's just
Speaker 2: like every everyone is talent that they can come for.
Speaker 2: It's all that you have to have been on a
Speaker 2: reality show to do it. Like you couldn't be the
Speaker 2: most of a daily comedic news podcast or something.
Speaker 1: No, you probably could. I think you if you have
Speaker 1: to be notoriety, I don't think you have to have
Speaker 1: been on reality TV. Although most of the people are.
Speaker 2: Gotta start a beef with somebody or something. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna ask him, like Lacy. Can you put me on
Speaker 2: Scam Goddess, the TV show. I'll do a scam. I'll
Speaker 2: do a scam because I'm just trying to get on
Speaker 2: the traders.
Speaker 1: Oh, I miss Lacey too. These are fun people you're
Speaker 1: talking about.
Speaker 2: Thriving. Lacey's for people who don't live in La Lacey
Speaker 2: Mosley all over the city right now, because season one
Speaker 2: of Scam Goddess is a form. Check it out, check
Speaker 2: it out, go watch. All right, Blair, we're gonna take
Speaker 2: a quick break. We're gonna come back. We're going to
Speaker 2: talk about the news and we'll be right back. And
Speaker 2: we're back. We are, and the fire hose continues unabated
Speaker 2: of Trump bullshit. M Where are we at these days? Miles?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: Well, I mean to take a deep inhale so I
Speaker 2: can say it all in one bra Well.
Speaker 3: He just announced plans to shut her the Office of
Speaker 3: Environmental Justice and External Civil Rights of the Environmental Production Agency.
Speaker 3: He's placed on nearly one hundred and seventy employees on
Speaker 3: administrative leave. Musk's fuck boy army is nosing around at
Speaker 3: FEMA currently. Trump just killed any new projects to build
Speaker 3: fast EV chargers because that is an Elon Musk competitor.
Speaker 2: A lot of people were like, but isn't that Elon like, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: these are different from the teeslo ones. This is his competition.
Speaker 3: He's also floated plans to fire a yet to be
Speaker 3: disclosed number of employees at the FDA and CDC triple
Speaker 3: down on the idea or his plan to quote buy Gaza.
Speaker 2: It's just it's NonStop.
Speaker 3: Then there's like the kid who was in his little
Speaker 3: doge fuck boy army who was doing Nazi stuff and
Speaker 3: then resigned.
Speaker 2: He's back already. Oh because I think super broccoli haircut
Speaker 2: like whatever, one of the fucking yeah yeah, yeah, the
Speaker 2: fucks over there, I think. But really just too so
Speaker 2: I have do those boy trading cards, so oh yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm still trying to get my hands on. Yeah.
Speaker 3: It wasn't Brocco or big balls, it was it was
Speaker 3: a little little little Nazi, little Nazi. Yeah, we go Nazi,
Speaker 3: I think is what he was going by a big
Speaker 3: rico nasty fan. But yeah, he like came back and
Speaker 3: Elon Musk was like, it's time to forgive and move on,
Speaker 3: which is basically I have a feeling that's obviously very
Speaker 3: intentional because they don't want to have the perception that
Speaker 3: outside forces can affect the business of Doge or whatever
Speaker 3: happening in the government. So they're like, I don't care
Speaker 3: if ninety eight percent of people don't like the Nazi stuff.
Speaker 3: You're coming back here because we need to show that
Speaker 3: we are impenetrable and impenetrable and you know, whatever, whatever
Speaker 3: we want to do, we will.
Speaker 2: Get that line. It's time to forgive and move on
Speaker 2: was the line he gave about, like, because he's like
Speaker 2: supporting this even for like even more far right party
Speaker 2: in Germany. That was like a speech he gave was
Speaker 2: like that it's time to forgive and move on about
Speaker 2: the Nazis. So when he's saying it's time to forgive
Speaker 2: and move on, he's not saying that about like being
Speaker 2: this is a young kid who's made some mistakes. He's saying,
Speaker 2: you guys are too mad about Nazis. It's time to
Speaker 2: forgive Nazis and move on, or we're good with the
Speaker 2: Nazis now, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: So you know, while all of this is happening, the
Speaker 3: Democrats continue to demonstrate how out of their depth they are.
Speaker 3: I referenced this earlier, like Chuck Schumer was leading chance
Speaker 3: last week that were so vague, I have no idea
Speaker 3: what Like I'm not sure he even knows what's actually happening.
Speaker 3: I just want to play this because this was like again,
Speaker 3: this is the when they were all outside the Treasury
Speaker 3: Department and Chuck Chuck Schumer just basically saying we will win.
Speaker 2: We I'm just gonna play.
Speaker 3: It because this was meant to be a rallying cry
Speaker 3: to be like, all right, there is an opposition party,
Speaker 3: but this is what we got.
Speaker 2: Gotta stand with you in this fight.
Speaker 4: And way will when Way well, when Way well, when
Speaker 4: Way well?
Speaker 2: Whoa boy?
Speaker 3: Way?
Speaker 2: Well, wait, we will win. We will rest. Oh we
Speaker 2: won't rest either. Okay, so those unwell, like he sounds
Speaker 2: so old yeah, oh yeah, Like he sounds like an
Speaker 2: old guy. There's a certain age you hit where you
Speaker 2: always sound like you just woke up from a nap
Speaker 2: and like yeah, yeah, yeah, he's at that age.
Speaker 3: Like you know how it's like specific when you're younger
Speaker 3: and like I feel like in college, like my a
Speaker 3: parent would call me like as I was clearly partying
Speaker 3: the night before and they're like, what's wrong, Like you
Speaker 3: get that like way too early phone call voice. It's
Speaker 3: like permanent, not a certain names.
Speaker 2: Motherfucker was like forty five minutes into a speech and
Speaker 2: he's like, oh.
Speaker 1: Shit, I have such secondhand like like oh this my
Speaker 1: old grandpa is out there, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, And also seeing like a nearly eighty year old
Speaker 3: representative Al Green who was off to the side next
Speaker 3: to Maxine Waters like lift his barely muster the strength
Speaker 3: to like lift this pain along. I'm like, oh God, y'all,
Speaker 3: this is why we need term limits. Like these people
Speaker 3: are way too entrenched in the old ways that they're
Speaker 3: they're I always use this metaph for just this, and
Speaker 3: this is what happened with the Vikings when people didn't
Speaker 3: protect like there were so much gold in like monasteries
Speaker 3: and churches, and people were like, the fear of God
Speaker 3: will prevent people from robbing this place. And then you
Speaker 3: get a bunch of people who don't believe in that.
Speaker 3: They're like, was it a bunch of golden there? Yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm taking that.
Speaker 2: They're like, but the fear of God, They're like, who
Speaker 2: give me this shit? You know what I mean?
Speaker 3: We're like, this is not you cannot fight an enemy
Speaker 3: who has they are like, not even on the same
Speaker 3: ideological playing field.
Speaker 2: You're not even close at this point.
Speaker 3: And then this week Chuck Schummer said that right now,
Speaker 3: their biggest weapon, the many Democrats have been saying this
Speaker 3: is going to be to withhold withhold votes that would
Speaker 3: cause the government to shut down.
Speaker 2: That would be in March.
Speaker 3: So they need a continuing resolution to keep the government
Speaker 3: fundly part fund partially funded until they can you know,
Speaker 3: approve a new budget partial.
Speaker 2: It's kind of fun, fundally partial.
Speaker 3: Check out my new podcast for People in Disarray in
Speaker 3: America Fundally partialed with Gral's May. But, like, you know,
Speaker 3: the biggest thing for Republicans right now is that they
Speaker 3: want to make the Trump tax cuts permanent, and the
Speaker 3: way that they're going to offset that is to make
Speaker 3: huge cuts to like Medicaid right or Medicare and go
Speaker 3: after those kinds of programs because they're like, oh, that's
Speaker 3: a huge chunk of money we can just do away
Speaker 3: with to show people when they're trying to quote balance
Speaker 3: the budget, they're like, well, we can offset all of
Speaker 3: the money we lose from having millionaires not pay taxes
Speaker 3: by not paying for these other welfare programs that are
Speaker 3: wildly popular, so I think, you know, being able to Hey,
Speaker 3: they need to tie people or have more people sort
Speaker 3: of connect to what is going on there. But that's
Speaker 3: a huge, sort of huge prize for the conservatives right
Speaker 3: now is to try and make those tax cuts happen
Speaker 3: but at the expense of things like medicaid and stuff
Speaker 3: like that. So that's like one legislative avenue for pushback
Speaker 3: that could work, because already there's they don't have the numbers,
Speaker 3: like the Republicans already split. There's like the Magot people
Speaker 3: who are like, dude, do whatever Trump wants and that's
Speaker 3: that's fine by me. I don't even know how any
Speaker 3: of this works. I'm just a racist guy who got
Speaker 3: enough votes and I used to play baseball. And then
Speaker 3: there are other conservatives who are like total budget hawks,
Speaker 3: who are like, we're not gonna do a fucking thing
Speaker 3: until you like reel this shit in.
Speaker 2: So that's one avenue for leverage.
Speaker 3: The other they say are that they have a four
Speaker 3: point plan that is based around legislative oversight, litigation, communication,
Speaker 3: and mobilization. Now those sound nice, but at the moment,
Speaker 3: we're already in a constitutional crisis where everyone's saying, like
Speaker 3: Trump doesn't actually need to listen to the courts. Okay,
Speaker 3: so then what is what is legislative oversight going to do?
Speaker 3: What is litigation going to do? Because we're already seeing
Speaker 3: attempts to completely sort of be like, no, no, I'm
Speaker 3: not gonna be burdened by things like a legal decision,
Speaker 3: communication and mobilization. Maybe like definitely, like the sense of
Speaker 3: outrage needs to be I think developed.
Speaker 2: A little bit more.
Speaker 3: But again, this is just all so much is happening,
Speaker 3: and there's just not real agreement on how they're going
Speaker 3: to pursue this because it just feels like I think
Speaker 3: most people agree when they look at the Democrats, like
Speaker 3: this is not enough. And that's why I'm like, it's
Speaker 3: so infuriated enough. The same people who seemingly were so
Speaker 3: clear eyed on what a second Trump administration would look
Speaker 3: like act like they have no idea.
Speaker 2: They knew about the dangers that seemed during the know.
Speaker 3: How to say, we knew how to say the words dangerous, right,
Speaker 3: but in terms of actually contending with that with TBD.
Speaker 2: They Yeah, I feel like they only know how to
Speaker 2: speak in a like way that's so full of technocratic
Speaker 2: like jargon that you can't really understand it, and it's
Speaker 2: just like hidden behind complexity or they have thing they
Speaker 2: they're like, oh, you want us to simplify it, we
Speaker 2: will win, you know, like just like so simple and
Speaker 2: basic and vague to be meaningless like those they feel like, well,
Speaker 2: we tried to dumb it down and like address the people,
Speaker 2: and it's like, no, you're not like speaking in a
Speaker 2: way that it seems remotely authentic because they can't. They
Speaker 2: aren't able to. That's why they, like, I feel like
Speaker 2: a lot of the programs that are getting cut, they're like, well, fine,
Speaker 2: that's fine with U. Like our corporate overlords, like they're
Speaker 2: not mad.
Speaker 3: Well, I just think that the thing that would actually,
Speaker 3: I think, motivate more people is that you're actually presenting again,
Speaker 3: this is what this is all we were crying out
Speaker 3: for doing election. Present a vision of the future that
Speaker 3: makes sense to people. But they cannot because they are
Speaker 3: there to like with like, you know, support the status quo.
Speaker 3: Because at this point we're seeing all the norms go
Speaker 3: out the window and people are like, what the fuck
Speaker 3: then what is this?
Speaker 2: Like what who? What is the direction?
Speaker 3: And they're like, ah, but the old way, no, no,
Speaker 3: and that's just that again, a bridge too far. That's
Speaker 3: why I think again it's so important to have younger
Speaker 3: voices come out to deal with this, because those are
Speaker 3: the ones that have like the literal energy to sort
Speaker 3: of connect to people's sense of outrage. And I'm like,
Speaker 3: you know, like you remember how like those Korean parliament
Speaker 3: members were fucking hoping the fences and shit trying to
Speaker 3: get back into the building during a coupe, Like we
Speaker 3: got our grandparents up there saying shit like well, I
Speaker 3: won't give you any more werthers from my rocket book
Speaker 3: if you don't stand aside at once, like we're just
Speaker 3: this opposite the as currently constructed. They are not really
Speaker 3: able to be the opposition party that is needed, but
Speaker 3: that it's really just about I mean, I feel.
Speaker 2: Like they can. They may be able to turn a corner.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I'm not counting on it. But that's which is also
Speaker 3: kind of also very frustrating, is to be like, well,
Speaker 3: I'm not counting on them. So I think that's where
Speaker 3: you're starting to see more like state legislators try to
Speaker 3: do what they can to at least from a legislative place,
Speaker 3: try and safeguard things but there needs to be more
Speaker 3: like of a vocal they're they're we're just lacking voice.
Speaker 3: Is that are going to rally people, because that's a
Speaker 3: huge thing. If there aren't enough people to demonstrate their outrage, that's.
Speaker 2: A huge thing.
Speaker 3: Trump cares about, like is if there's nothing, he'll at
Speaker 3: least have a reaction to. It doesn't necessarily mean it's
Speaker 3: like then that's all we have to do, but he
Speaker 3: is very much thinks about like how he's being perceived
Speaker 3: and right now without much you know, aside from like
Speaker 3: protests happening here and there, there's just I don't know,
Speaker 3: we were not able to coalesce around like a cccinct
Speaker 3: set of ideas on how to resist.
Speaker 2: All of this. By the way, we should mention that
Speaker 2: I got I think I might have gotten taken in
Speaker 2: by some Trump propaganda because when they showed him during
Speaker 2: the national anthem during the super Bowl and there was
Speaker 2: like a big cheer, like apparently that was piped in,
Speaker 2: like that wasn't actually crowded.
Speaker 3: With international viewers were like they booed like on those broadcasts,
Speaker 3: and then they were also like there were videos from inside.
Speaker 1: Yeah of him getting booed like badly.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Wow, interesting, Jack, you just wanted to believe in America.
Speaker 2: I believe in America. I want to believe that we're
Speaker 2: all on the same page. Again. No, I was like
Speaker 2: very troubled when I saw people just like, wait, we're
Speaker 2: not supposed to cheer for the president ever, but like
Speaker 2: this one at this time, they didn't mean I will
Speaker 2: say the Chuck Schumer clip that we will wing clip.
Speaker 2: It's interesting because they've got like a couple young people
Speaker 2: in the background that I feel like the way that
Speaker 2: Trump uses people of color in the background of his speeches,
Speaker 2: like they just they're just like collecting to young friends,
Speaker 2: like we want you to look energetic and young, spry.
Speaker 1: Yeah, call for anyone under twenty five.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Can you lift? Can you lift a
Speaker 2: sign above your head? Fantastic? Fantastic? Yeah. I mean the
Speaker 2: fact that Representative Algreen is shaking a fucking like literally
Speaker 2: shaking a cane. Yeah, And that's no knock on him
Speaker 2: or whatever.
Speaker 3: But I'm just saying, like, you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: it's just like the overall optics knowing what the establishment
Speaker 3: Party stands for and what they've allowed and where we're
Speaker 3: at now, it's just all like it's just so much.
Speaker 2: It's it's so so so much, it's so growth.
Speaker 1: Like anytime I have to see even just anything about
Speaker 1: that man, it makes me feel sick. And then when
Speaker 1: you see people encounter them in the world being excited
Speaker 1: about him, it's just sick me. I mean, I guess
Speaker 1: that's how they feel about us the other years, you know,
Speaker 1: but it.
Speaker 2: Man, I wasn't excited to see Joe Biden. Like that's pathetic.
Speaker 2: That's like I want to do somebody who listens to
Speaker 2: those podcasts like I want to hear a report back.
Speaker 2: Are they still like those like comedy in quotes podcasts
Speaker 2: that are like right wing or like right leaning and
Speaker 2: like I think it's edgy. Are they still like yo,
Speaker 2: Trump is so tight? Like how is that comedy to
Speaker 2: be like Trump is cool?
Speaker 3: I mean like President his show flagrant, like the listeners
Speaker 3: like what the fuck is this anymore? Like this is
Speaker 3: just a right wing circle jerk now or like or
Speaker 3: like maybe one or two people will say something contrary
Speaker 3: and then it just gets moved right past.
Speaker 2: I mean it's do you see Trump the super Bowl
Speaker 2: last night? It was pretty tight? So sick.
Speaker 1: I don't listen to comedy podcasts like Freaky seventh.
Speaker 2: Ones there, Yeah, Protecting and Jack and Miles that's right,
Speaker 2: and Faky you guys about because it's too freaky partialed
Speaker 2: bitch is too bad, Our bitch is too bad on
Speaker 2: that one that we can't you guys would want to
Speaker 2: kill us. Trump did announce more tariffs on his way
Speaker 2: to the super Bowl. It would seem twenty five percent
Speaker 2: tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports, including from Canada Mexico. Again,
Speaker 2: nobody really knows why he's doing, like it doesn't make
Speaker 2: economic sense and so but the one thing, the one
Speaker 2: cause it does seem to be having tariffs are a
Speaker 2: blunt instrument at getting like things like getting a specific
Speaker 2: effect out of the market. And the one thing that
Speaker 2: seems to keep happening is gold keeps jumping and the
Speaker 2: Trump family, as we talked about, as our writer JM
Speaker 2: pointed out in a recent episode, their family recently invested
Speaker 2: in like a gold company and they're they're all in
Speaker 2: on gold, which also is in fitting with everything we
Speaker 2: know about Donald Trump and his aesthetic and like with
Speaker 2: his hair, he's starting to look like gold Member from
Speaker 2: Austin Powers. Yeah, weird way I feel like his hair
Speaker 2: and his face are one day going to all be
Speaker 2: the same color.
Speaker 1: They are They already are like yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well you know we got to toe the line.
Speaker 2: We can't. We don't. We don't want to. We don't
Speaker 2: want to be in his crosshairs, now do we? Oh?
Speaker 2: I know?
Speaker 1: I was yeah, we'll we ban, it will disappear in
Speaker 1: the night. But I'm sure you guys have been this
Speaker 1: has been brought to your attention. But all those videos
Speaker 1: on TikTok about Republican women's makeup, no, yeah, they're pardying it,
Speaker 1: and like then they keep getting mad and then they're
Speaker 1: doing like yeah, I have been enjoying it.
Speaker 2: I'll be Was this while I was gone? Was this
Speaker 2: while I was on my sabbatical?
Speaker 1: This girl, I feel this girl named Susanne I feel
Speaker 1: like is leading the charge where she's just she's like,
Speaker 1: democrats are too nice. We need to fight fire with fire,
Speaker 1: and she's like just ruthlessly mean and and look, I
Speaker 1: don't I don't like meats stuff. But she's like, well
Speaker 1: you're She's like, you're creating laws and that are really affecting,
Speaker 1: you know, the people I love. And so I feel
Speaker 1: like I'm justified to say, and she doesn't.
Speaker 2: Make one of your makeup choices leth the most.
Speaker 1: Lethal reads about people's makeup and hair, and yeah, this.
Speaker 2: Is a great recommendation. Were talked about Mega Face more
Speaker 2: with regards to like Matt Gates and like face like
Speaker 2: kind of it felt like everybody was kind of trending
Speaker 2: in the same direction to have Villaer's VOTs really highly
Speaker 2: botoxed faces.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they need to find some more natural injectors in
Speaker 1: my opinion.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they should be using They should be using
Speaker 3: ablative labor labor treatments.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be quite honest, but they wouldn't know about that.
Speaker 1: Maybe some PRF easy gel could be a more natural result.
Speaker 2: I've been saying that. I'm glad you agree. Jack. Your
Speaker 2: face has healed remarkably after that. Al my Elasian. I know,
Speaker 2: I'm Blazian. My, that's what I call you, my bla.
Speaker 2: What's up?
Speaker 3: Oh ship?
Speaker 2: They're like, bro, who was that? I'm like, I don't
Speaker 2: know him. I don't know him. I don't know him.
Speaker 1: You guys are really in sync, incredible, Yeah, play off
Speaker 1: each other. So well, what do you coach?
Speaker 2: You co host? Long time what have you been doing
Speaker 2: this show for? Have you said more words to each
Speaker 2: other than your own children? So fu up?
Speaker 3: Potentially if I did a word counter, what's easy. Only
Speaker 3: have my kids only got two years on the clock,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Yeah, for sure I've said
Speaker 3: more to you that I have my my own kids.
Speaker 3: So it's fine, it's fine.
Speaker 2: All right, let's take a quick break and we'll come
Speaker 2: back and talk about some bullshit that is not politics.
Speaker 5: We'll be right back, and we're back and right right, guys, big,
Speaker 5: So these shelved movies we've talked about.
Speaker 2: Like Acme Versus Coyote or whatever. That one is the
Speaker 2: Will Forte movie that was completed, and then Zaslov from
Speaker 2: HBO Max was just like, yeah, we're gonna we're gonna
Speaker 2: kill this and nobody's ever gonna get to see it.
Speaker 2: It was that and batgirl right, We're like, yeah, let's
Speaker 2: just take the tax loss on that one. I'm a
Speaker 2: big mcgruber head, so I was, uh said that that's
Speaker 2: the Acme one is the one that really sticks with me.
Speaker 2: But so there's now two more movies that are going away,
Speaker 2: not because of David Zaslov fortune. But first I just
Speaker 2: wanted to ask, like was this something that ever happened before?
Speaker 2: Like this is new right, like that there were like
Speaker 2: albums that were completed and like withheld for a long time,
Speaker 2: and like book there's like all sorts of legendary books
Speaker 2: that like got lost. Well, like I think like Hemingway's
Speaker 2: like first manuscript got lost or something like that. But
Speaker 2: like movies, I feel like if they could complete a
Speaker 2: movie and put it out in theaters, they were going
Speaker 2: to like find a way to do it. Like Bruce
Speaker 2: Lee died halfway through making his last movie and they
Speaker 2: just like put somebody in like a wig and like
Speaker 2: shot him from behind.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's bizarre because it's like it's something about their taxes,
Speaker 1: because you'd think if you put the capital into completing
Speaker 1: a movie that's already sunk in costs, that you would
Speaker 1: be put it out to get your ROI. But there's something,
Speaker 1: there's something happening where the tax exemption is bigger. So
Speaker 1: that's the motivation for not releasing. It's been happening now
Speaker 1: for like four to five years, and it's really sad
Speaker 1: for the industry and a lot of people.
Speaker 2: And it's like when I hear that like that well
Speaker 2: it's tax implications. Like part of me is like, don't
Speaker 2: say anything. They're like, it's just too smart, it's too complicated,
Speaker 2: you don't understand it. Just shut up. But like part
Speaker 2: of me is I feel like we should just be like, well,
Speaker 2: that's a dumb system. Then, like if the incentive is
Speaker 2: such like, then that's too complicated, and it like is
Speaker 2: making the people who have the power to make big
Speaker 2: decisions do stupid stuff like that, that's bad. So even
Speaker 2: whether it does make financial sense or not, like, then
Speaker 2: that means the system is fucking stupid. Yeah, would be
Speaker 2: my contentions.
Speaker 3: I'm just reading a list of movies that work completed,
Speaker 3: not release. There's some There's a movie called All Star
Speaker 3: Weekend with Jamie Fox and Jeremy Piven. Oh, the hair
Speaker 3: Plug All Stars. Wow, hair Plug All Star Weekend with
Speaker 3: Jamie Fox and Jeremy p I loved him, but apparently
Speaker 3: it like was shelved. It was supposed to come out
Speaker 3: with it during the twenty eighteen All Star Game about
Speaker 3: these two guys who win tickets to the All Star
Speaker 3: Game NBA All Star Game. Yeah, and they were like
Speaker 3: the post didn't like begin until twenty nineteen, and then
Speaker 3: In twenty twenty two, Quote Fox confirmed the film was shelved.
Speaker 3: While promoting the twenty twenty two film Day Shift expressed
Speaker 3: the difficulties of getting the movie released in the present
Speaker 3: day comedy landscape. So I'm guessing so this was supposed
Speaker 3: to release in twenty eighteen. This something happened in twenty twenty,
Speaker 3: in which case they said, yeah, you know what, maybe
Speaker 3: we don't put this out.
Speaker 2: Apparently Robert Downey Junior.
Speaker 3: Was in it, and he plays a Mexican man also,
Speaker 3: and some people were like, maybe that's what it is,
Speaker 3: but there was never a reason.
Speaker 2: Yes, again, let's blame the comedy climate and not their
Speaker 2: terrible decision for casting Robert Downey Junior once again in
Speaker 2: Brown or Blackfaith. There's a picture from this set. He
Speaker 2: looks like Mickey Rourke more than anything in this picture
Speaker 2: right here. Oh Jesus Christ, that's Robert really problematic.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, she does look like Mickey Rourick.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Does many of you guys ever say that I look
Speaker 1: like Mickey Rourick in a picture? You don't understand the
Speaker 1: desastation that that's a legal read for you. No, that
Speaker 1: was one you can't come back from that. To back
Speaker 1: my bags and leave town. If you ever say I
Speaker 1: look like Mickey.
Speaker 2: Rourick, you're giving piss Hound for twenty too much power
Speaker 2: whatever its free due for.
Speaker 1: He's my best friend.
Speaker 2: No, I was talking about Pisshound for twenty different different
Speaker 2: guys different. That's Jacks reply guy, which is secretly all right.
Speaker 2: So two new movies that will not be ever coming
Speaker 2: out one I can kind of see it, all right.
Speaker 2: So the first one is for Rel's autobiographical musical about
Speaker 2: his childhood, the Lego One, not the Lego one Miles
Speaker 2: because and this is news to me, the Lego One
Speaker 2: came out last year, came out, that shit dropped on
Speaker 2: all of our ass and it did not do baffo bio.
Speaker 2: It did offo boh. It was not did not do
Speaker 2: very well. Three million, three mil at It was its
Speaker 2: first week out, and it had a campaign like it
Speaker 2: it was playing as a trailer before a lot of
Speaker 2: big movies.
Speaker 3: I mean as a concept. It was I was like,
Speaker 3: who is this war? And why do indeed, why does anyone?
Speaker 3: I mean, I love I'm a huge Pharrell Williams fan,
Speaker 3: like from his time in the Neptunes and stuff, But
Speaker 3: I'm like Yeah, I don't. I don't need to see
Speaker 3: a lego depiction of his life.
Speaker 1: I would have watched it and I probably will now
Speaker 1: that I know it exists.
Speaker 2: It existed out there. Yeah, should have seen it in
Speaker 2: theaters because now we're not getting a second Pharrell autobiography,
Speaker 2: thanks a lot, Blair.
Speaker 1: Sorry, I do love a Lego movie like I am
Speaker 1: a fan.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the Batman Lego movie is a blessed so good.
Speaker 2: So this one is not a Lego movie, although it's
Speaker 2: directed by Michelle Gondry of The Eternal Sunshine of the
Speaker 2: Spotless Mind and like the the thing I knew him
Speaker 2: for most before Eternal Migue music video Come into My World.
Speaker 3: That made Miles cry for recently want to Know, can't
Speaker 3: get you out of my head cry was the White
Speaker 3: Stripes video where they are made of legos.
Speaker 2: So was it fell in Love with a girl? What
Speaker 2: is it? Yeah? I think it was fell in love
Speaker 2: with a girl. But it's so again like Farrell was
Speaker 2: just like I'm gonna it. Really feels like Farrell was
Speaker 2: in in talks trying to decide between two biopics. One
Speaker 2: was a movie, one was with the guy who made
Speaker 2: the Lego music video, and he was like, fuck it,
Speaker 2: We're gonna do both of these. We're just gonna keep
Speaker 2: going with both of them, to the point that we
Speaker 2: had like a Armageddon deep impact situation of Pharrell autobiographies
Speaker 2: coming out, and they've decided to shelve the second one
Speaker 2: because nobody saw the first one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's I mean, I'm surprised it was them, you know,
Speaker 3: because like again, the other examples are like the studios,
Speaker 3: We're like, bro, we cannot put the shit out, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean? And I like how Michelle Gondry
Speaker 3: and Farrell are like no.
Speaker 2: No, no, no. So in this case, they were like,
Speaker 2: we went into the edit bay, we realized that there
Speaker 2: was no way to make a good movie out of
Speaker 2: what we had here, and we've decided to not do this.
Speaker 2: So this is wild. They had Janelle Monet, Holly Berry, Yes,
Speaker 2: fucking Brian Tyree, Henry, Missy Elliott, Quinta Brunson, Booky Young White. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: the fucking Twitter lord, Like, I mean, this.
Speaker 3: Is such a such an l for a filmmaker to
Speaker 3: make a fucking movie to completion, take it into post,
Speaker 3: and then say quote during the editing process, they collectively
Speaker 3: decided there wasn't a path forward to tell the version
Speaker 3: of this story that.
Speaker 2: We originally envisioned. That's what a script is for, just
Speaker 2: as that's the thing. Like, so there's this bias within
Speaker 2: Hollywood that it's like writers are kind of like the tertiary.
Speaker 2: You know, you have the directors, you have the actors,
Speaker 2: and like producers oversee everything, but like and then the
Speaker 2: writer is just like down below, you know, just a
Speaker 2: hired hand, hired gun. You go back and like read
Speaker 2: the scripts for like great movies and it's like, yo,
Speaker 2: this is all there, Like every everything that was great
Speaker 2: about this is on the page. And you go back
Speaker 2: and read a script for a shitting movie and you'll
Speaker 2: a lot of times like it's better than what and
Speaker 2: ended up coming out on screen, Like but yeah, that
Speaker 2: that is they might have wanted to figure this out
Speaker 2: at the scripting stage, all right. So that's one I
Speaker 2: probably wasn't going to see. You think I have to see.
Speaker 2: The Legos one, by the way, did not get like
Speaker 2: terrible reviews. It's like in the sixties on Metacritic, so
Speaker 2: I'm sure incredible. Yeah, movies are good.
Speaker 3: I think everybody was checking for that one too specific
Speaker 3: like very specific. Kids are like Batman, yay, They're like
Speaker 3: what about Farrell Williams.
Speaker 2: They're like.
Speaker 3: The guy who's saying the despicable despicable me, no, no, nosable,
Speaker 3: stop it, don't let me finish. The old man who
Speaker 3: has a fan, who has fantastic skin, who barely ages
Speaker 3: that guy, what do you mean barely ages?
Speaker 2: Okay, maybe that's morely important to me. Yeah, maybe we
Speaker 2: don't need to see this. Yeah, it's It's usually a
Speaker 2: bad sign when you're doing a pitch of a children's
Speaker 2: movie to and you keep having to scream can I finish?
Speaker 2: Let me finish? All right? This one. I'm bummed out
Speaker 2: about this next one, though. Netflix just canceled a nine
Speaker 2: hour documentary about Prince directed by Ezra Edelman, who won
Speaker 2: the Oscar for the OJ maide in America movie. Did
Speaker 2: you guys watch OJ maide in America? Yea, that shit
Speaker 2: was so good?
Speaker 1: Was that that one a while ago?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I did watch that one. I didn't watch
Speaker 1: the new one.
Speaker 2: So this was He's been working on it for the
Speaker 2: past five years. This is what he like followed up
Speaker 2: the OJ one with was This Prince documentary is nine
Speaker 2: hours it was going to be a complete banger. And
Speaker 2: then and he was like granted access to Prince's entire
Speaker 2: archive known as the Vault, and had permission from his estate.
Speaker 2: And then the estate changed administration and Netflix, the Netflix
Speaker 2: exact who green let the movie left the company, and
Speaker 2: now they're killing the project. So this dude just made
Speaker 2: a documentary that The New York Times like a journalist
Speaker 2: got to see it and was like, this is a
Speaker 2: cursed masterpiece. Wow. And yeah, I mean the stuff we're
Speaker 2: going to learn some stuff about Prince which anybody who's
Speaker 2: been paying attention probably had a sense that it was there.
Speaker 2: But allegations of physical assault from his ex girlfriend, descriptions
Speaker 2: of his addiction to painkillers, and criticisms of certain lyrics
Speaker 2: as anti semitic. But that now they're going to take
Speaker 2: another pass at it with with the approval of Prince
Speaker 2: of the State, And could you imagine how sanitized it becomes?
Speaker 2: Like and he was a prince, that was it. They
Speaker 2: called him Prince Prince and everyone lived happily ever after.
Speaker 1: That one was because someone on Prince's side like found
Speaker 1: a way to get it killed to protect his legacy
Speaker 1: or oh yeah, okay, yeah, because I was going to
Speaker 1: say with the last five, with the state of our industry,
Speaker 1: the film entertainment industry, I've experienced this several times where
Speaker 1: there's so many layoffs at the executive that you're developing
Speaker 1: something with for like a year or two, all of
Speaker 1: a sudden poof, they're gone in the projects immediately dead
Speaker 1: right right exactly.
Speaker 3: I mean that was a huge thing when HBO Max,
Speaker 3: like that whole Discovery thing. So many people had shit
Speaker 3: potentially about to be piloted, have things greenlit. Then all
Speaker 3: those executives like, hey, man, do you know anywhere at that's.
Speaker 1: High Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2: I was about to ask you if you I know else?
Speaker 1: Yeah, And like the mergers and the whole like like
Speaker 1: streamers and companies, not even the existing any I mean,
Speaker 1: it's just been crazy.
Speaker 3: It's La feels like and I think this is a
Speaker 3: this is a very specific to La Vibe thing, but
Speaker 3: I think people just outside of La should probably understand,
Speaker 3: like this city feels like it's dying. I don't know
Speaker 3: if people are aware. It feels like like like you know,
Speaker 3: when factory jobs were like there's the work is gone.
Speaker 3: There are so many people having like CRISI is about there,
Speaker 3: Like I'm an editor, but there's nothing to edit edit, yeah,
Speaker 3: and I can't go anywhere. I'm a writer, there's nothing
Speaker 3: to write or like that whole industry is being so
Speaker 3: it's like in such a state of chaos right now. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's like there's just a huge dimension of the city
Speaker 3: that's like lost at the moment that it's very fucking eerie.
Speaker 2: I gotta say, it's yelling.
Speaker 1: A lot of people are leaving the business.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know people that are like I used to
Speaker 2: do this, I'm going to be a warrior now, yeah, maybe, or.
Speaker 1: People I've been in the business for a really long
Speaker 1: time and.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's it's yeah anyway, changes I'm a
