Speaker 3: I like hearing about what you guys talked about previous days.
Speaker 3: When I hear your nicknames leading into this one. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: like this was it?
Speaker 2: Steak and shake right shake? They were there like we're
Speaker 2: frying our fries at beef two, not seed oils because.
Speaker 3: Sud I like when a company tells me they're no
Speaker 3: longer woke, is how I'm reminded they still exist? Did
Speaker 3: you hear Hollywood video is no longer woke?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 3: Right? Right? Lion's choice is no longer woke? Like damn
Speaker 3: Lion's choice. You are gonna believe, yeah it is. I
Speaker 3: I haven't thought about steak and shake in not even
Speaker 3: this or the last decade.
Speaker 1: Very reas massive in Missouri.
Speaker 3: That's I said.
Speaker 2: Lion's Choice also met up another Missouri state, but I
Speaker 2: think they're still there. Like I remember when I lived
Speaker 2: in Missouri for a couple of years, like being I
Speaker 2: was like, oh, man, steak and Shake is the fast
Speaker 2: food of the state.
Speaker 3: Well, you need to have a sit down restaurant. Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: It was like the Steak and Shake like Roy Rogers
Speaker 1: in New Jersey. You know, Roy Rodgers is just still
Speaker 1: in New Jersey like it never left.
Speaker 2: They have Yeah, yeah, holy shit, Roy Rogers still haunts
Speaker 2: the Garden State Parkway all right, like more than any
Speaker 2: other fast food outlet.
Speaker 3: Roy Rogers, I mean, the Steak and Shake had its
Speaker 3: thing going for a little while. You know. I was going,
Speaker 3: I'm from Missouri and going to school there, and like people,
Speaker 3: it was like where you could go, you could go
Speaker 3: to this. I don't know if the prices are the same,
Speaker 3: imagine the quality has gone down. I'm basing that off nothing,
Speaker 3: and I know I'm correct. I don't know.
Speaker 2: Of course, Well you're from Missouri, so it doesn't matter
Speaker 2: these takes. It's like it's a lot like Missouri. The
Speaker 2: prices might not have changed, but the quality has gone down.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: It's funny because, yeah, I had two fast food revelations
Speaker 2: when I dated someone whose parents lived in Missouri, and
Speaker 2: that was Lion's choice in steak and shake. But this
Speaker 2: was in two thousand and five, and I was like, whoa,
Speaker 2: this shit's different. And I was like, and because it's
Speaker 2: not the Jack in the Box Taco, Bell Dell Taco,
Speaker 2: or in and out McDonald's, this is impressive to me.
Speaker 2: The bar was kind of low.
Speaker 3: You couldn't believe other food could be made fast until
Speaker 3: you before you grew up. It's like the hero's journey,
Speaker 3: but it's g y r O. It's not h g
Speaker 3: r oh. I've always thought, Yeah, like calling.
Speaker 1: Hamburger fast food hamburger steak is like, definitely it's aspirational,
Speaker 1: but it's kind of an aspirational way that's like off
Speaker 1: putting because it's like you're you're just reminded of the
Speaker 1: fact that this.
Speaker 2: Is you're eating a burger.
Speaker 3: That's not really version of the word that's describing it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's like too much.
Speaker 1: It's almost like sarcastic, like the sure as opposed to aspirational. Anyways,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what's not sarcastic me saying I'm thrilled
Speaker 1: to have you.
Speaker 3: Here, Kyle, thank you. I need to say before I
Speaker 3: get before I forget that. I was in Edinburgh last
Speaker 3: August at the Fringe Festival. I was there just long
Speaker 3: enough to say the name of the city right, and
Speaker 3: I uh, Zekegang came to my show, Yes Kingdom people
Speaker 3: and they were like, we're here because we love the
Speaker 3: Daily Zeitkegeist and we love you on there. And I'm like,
Speaker 3: that's insane. I love to hear you. Were they raising Scotland.
Speaker 3: I couldn't understand what they're saying. No, yahre UK somewhere
Speaker 3: in the UK. It's funny, it's it's yeah that Scotland
Speaker 3: seems to have you know, I'm not making I'm making
Speaker 3: wide brush cultural references, but Scotland seems to have little
Speaker 3: little siblings syndrome to the England of the U k.
Speaker 3: And And when you're in Edinburgh for the French Festival,
Speaker 3: you're kind of as a circus. That is not indicative
Speaker 3: of how a city actually is in its regular life.
Speaker 3: You know, you go if you go to Coachella. During Coachella,
Speaker 3: it's not the same as if you go there right,
Speaker 3: go there right now, and you're like, oh, it's just
Speaker 3: mostly both Denny's. It's a little bit different of an.
Speaker 2: Denny's golf golf courses and some date shakes.
Speaker 1: I love California, specifically your E d M tents, right,
Speaker 1: specifically air strip you guys built for this.
Speaker 3: Weekend, right, Yeah, yeah, right, But it was incredible, and
Speaker 3: I mean it was not. It was like a few
Speaker 3: times through us sprinkled at people after the show, was
Speaker 3: like I came here, Zidegang, and I'm here for this
Speaker 3: long and it came and I'm like, that's so cool.
Speaker 3: So I have to say to them from here the Gang, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: some of the best podcast fans the other side of
Speaker 3: the world better, the best, the best. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But it's just weird for me to acknowledge that we
Speaker 1: have the best fans because our show is a second
Speaker 1: rate podcast.
Speaker 3: It's true.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it has nothing to do with you, Ze Gang,
Speaker 1: me saying some of the best when you are, in
Speaker 1: fact the best. It's just that's his inability, Yeah, my
Speaker 1: inability to be like, we have nice things.
Speaker 3: Well, you have some of the best, and then you
Speaker 3: also have the remainder of the best, all of the best,
Speaker 3: all not even no way to know what that group
Speaker 3: would be. You know what I mean. You'll never walk alone.
Speaker 3: But I'm always happy to be here and and and
Speaker 3: find out what I've searched on Google.
Speaker 1: They always an adventure. We're going to get to know
Speaker 1: you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're
Speaker 1: going to tell the listeners a couple of things we're
Speaker 1: talking about. We're talking about the the website scrubbing and
Speaker 1: history rewriting that is happening, the dumb cultural revolution, like
Speaker 1: the shitty cultural revolution that Trump is doing right now,
Speaker 1: where he's changing going onto the websites, probably not personally
Speaker 1: with his own numbs, but his administration not not allowed
Speaker 1: to have black metal of honor recipients you got you
Speaker 1: gotta get rid of those.
Speaker 3: And there's no way Trump's doing it with this. That
Speaker 3: man could not solve the capture code in a week. Now,
Speaker 3: he can't even hike. He has ideals.
Speaker 2: He's got that assistant who types everything for him, the
Speaker 2: person who prints everything for him.
Speaker 1: He was so blown away by that Tesla car because
Speaker 1: he had never sat behind the wheel of a car.
Speaker 1: And you got this big, round, round guy here.
Speaker 3: What do you do this? What do you do this?
Speaker 3: Very short? Where's the middle part where you don't have
Speaker 3: to talk to the driver.
Speaker 1: So we'll talk about that, and also his vision for
Speaker 1: the Kennedy Center because he's taken over that part of
Speaker 1: culture as well.
Speaker 3: He wants to he wants to be the Kennedy Center guy.
Speaker 3: The Uh.
Speaker 1: Well, and we'll talk about snow White, which is coming
Speaker 1: out the Walt Disney one, not the Daily Wire one.
Speaker 1: I hadn't really checked in with this since they released
Speaker 1: a trailer and then Ben Shapiro was like, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: check out our snow White and it looked like shit.
Speaker 1: And uh So we have an update on the Ben
Speaker 1: Shapiro one, and we also have an update on the
Speaker 1: Disney one. Yeah, all that plenty more. But first, Kyle,
Speaker 1: we do like to ask our guest, what is something
Speaker 1: from your search history that's revealing about who you are?
Speaker 3: Okay, I got It's hard. I took my last two
Speaker 3: things that weren't just sort of like what time is it?
Speaker 3: And uh? One and that is how you keep tying.
Speaker 3: One is shortening work in empanada dough recipe question mark
Speaker 3: and I'm doing I'm making m panadas today but I'm
Speaker 3: doing it in the most Missouri way possible. I'm using
Speaker 3: pot pie filling. Oh so some pot pie from scratch
Speaker 3: and we had left overfilling that froze and now it's thawing,
Speaker 3: and I thought it'd be fun to put them in empanadas. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's like my my girlfriend's parents are visiting from Missouri.
Speaker 3: So I'm like, this is your transitory food will be
Speaker 3: by in an so you can now I'll let you
Speaker 3: visually transition and tastefully remain home po pockets and I
Speaker 3: was like, I can't get I don't know if I
Speaker 3: can have time to go get lard, but I have
Speaker 3: shortening left over? Can I use that instead of butter?
Speaker 3: What's anyway? So that was that was the first thing,
Speaker 3: turns out yes, And the second thing is, I don't
Speaker 3: know if you ever find like a new way to
Speaker 3: just cry for a little bit, like where you're like
Speaker 3: this is you know when you get into a new note.
Speaker 3: I've been playing a lot of Dungeons and Dragons. I've
Speaker 3: been running a lot of campaigns and doing this. I
Speaker 3: googled montage of D and D campaign finales. Oh wow,
Speaker 3: and so I just watched for like an hour, people
Speaker 3: finishing their D and D campaigns, like their last session
Speaker 3: was down to the wire. Yes, like ten years of
Speaker 3: playing one story and this is like the summation of
Speaker 3: the story, or like people playing for like five or
Speaker 3: six years every week. So it's like I'm googling the
Speaker 3: end of a one hundred and eighty hour movie right right,
Speaker 3: right wow, and just watching sort of the denum of
Speaker 3: these people's emotional I don't know anything about the story
Speaker 3: or the characters. It's just people sitting around a table
Speaker 3: crying about something.
Speaker 1: It's like emotionally affecting because they're so kind of overpowered by.
Speaker 3: The moh So, I don't know what it says about me,
Speaker 3: and I'm certainly not going to pay ask the person
Speaker 3: I pay to tell me. And that I'm like eliciting
Speaker 3: emotional response with this very distant, very obvious wall. I
Speaker 3: don't know any of these people. I don't know what
Speaker 3: the story is, but I'm seeing them have to say
Speaker 3: goodbye to something that's years and years and years long.
Speaker 2: Right, yeah, I've seen It's so funny you say that.
Speaker 2: Last night I saw a clip of a guy like
Speaker 2: Timbaland the producer has this thing called the beat club
Speaker 2: that he would do on Twitch where users submit their
Speaker 2: own music and Timbland the fucking like one of the
Speaker 2: Goat producers listens to it and it's like no next,
Speaker 2: or sometimes he really likes it. And this one instance,
Speaker 2: there was this Maudy producer from New Zealand who had
Speaker 2: a beat come up and it's just his reaction to
Speaker 2: watching Timblan be like yo, stop stop. He's like, what
Speaker 2: the fuck play this shit again? He Timbland is loving
Speaker 2: it and this guy is just like so overcome because
Speaker 2: he's just like Timbland is fucking with it, and.
Speaker 3: I was like, you go on, man, I love it.
Speaker 1: I love happening to people.
Speaker 3: I feel like I was co OpEd.
Speaker 2: I think I was like hijacking someone else's success story,
Speaker 2: but in a weird way, I was like, I'm feeling
Speaker 2: it too.
Speaker 3: It might be the state of things that were like
Speaker 3: I was googling joy and I was surprised, right.
Speaker 1: Surprised by how it made me feel.
Speaker 3: Inside, or that there were results right right right.
Speaker 1: We're our own news feed now, so we just have
Speaker 1: to do the like fun human interest story at the
Speaker 1: end for ourselves, because.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I actually absolutely have been loved doing it,
Speaker 3: and I love playing D and D and doing all that,
Speaker 3: and I've just really enjoyed, uh what, I'm sort of
Speaker 3: coming to the midpoint of what will be a year's
Speaker 3: long campaign and seeing this like summation and wow, it's
Speaker 3: been nice.
Speaker 1: And how like are these old friends you've like played
Speaker 1: D and D with for a long time?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Randos man, I have been running some campaigns for
Speaker 3: Randos and can be hired to do it, and it's
Speaker 3: very fun. If you don't want me to run a campaign,
Speaker 3: ice you guys, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Right, I actually might need to reach out to you
Speaker 1: about that. Yeah, Kyle, what is something you think is underrated?
Speaker 3: Okay, this is gonna sound odd. It's Facebook. Uh, it
Speaker 3: is Facebook. It is Facebook. Not for anything happen to
Speaker 3: where Facebook seems to exist out of time. You ever,
Speaker 3: It's like if the whole world is arguing what time
Speaker 3: it is, Facebook is like, yeah, it's blue. He doesn't
Speaker 3: even have anything to do with what's time. And Facebook's like, no,
Speaker 3: we're all talking about if time is blue, it does
Speaker 3: not exist. The marketplace is the most wonderful thing I've
Speaker 3: ever seen. Yesterday I bought a chessboard side table from
Speaker 3: a guy for basically no money. And I went to
Speaker 3: his house and all he does is sell stuff. And
Speaker 3: there are mannequins in the art. There's people selling their
Speaker 3: own art, and you're just like, I saw an art
Speaker 3: piece that was called two and then the next one
Speaker 3: was called the Little Boy, and they look this and
Speaker 3: I'm just like, what's happening. There's no rules? And then
Speaker 3: I get when you get an ad, you can look
Speaker 3: at the comments and there's just an overwhelming amount of
Speaker 3: people not knowing what's going It is. It is chaos.
Speaker 3: It is. I get. I'm a Chiefs fan and so
Speaker 3: I see Taylor Swift posts on my Facebook and so
Speaker 3: it be a picture of Taylor Swift and the comments
Speaker 3: will just be like her shoulders look different now. And
Speaker 3: I'm like from like an eighty year old guy who's married,
Speaker 3: and I'll just go and look and I'm like, what
Speaker 3: is happening? Ye people, It's like no one knows everyone
Speaker 3: can see this, No one knows that your name is associated.
Speaker 3: Everyone acts like it's anonymous, and it's the only non
Speaker 3: anonymous social media.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, still it is. It is wonderful, like just
Speaker 2: trying to get stuff into our new place, like just
Speaker 2: trying to refurnish things, like we're not trying to buy
Speaker 2: a ton of stuff and get like certain things that
Speaker 2: you can't find or whatever. And there's so much. We
Speaker 2: got so many plants from people on Facebook. Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: gigantic plants that like, I don't know, twenty bucks. I'm
Speaker 2: like at a nursery. This is like a five hundred dollars.
Speaker 3: It is crazy. They're like my house. It thrives off
Speaker 3: of the idea that we're all giving up. And so
Speaker 3: I play tennis and you can get nice tennis stuff
Speaker 3: because there's there's no shortage of rich kids quitting and
Speaker 3: so you can get nice stuff from rich kids quitting
Speaker 3: stuff all of the time. Yeah, and every baby, every
Speaker 3: so much baby stuff. We're probably baby like yeah yeah
Speaker 3: at this point. Yeah, there's no rules. There's people selling
Speaker 3: like churros and they'll be like, I'm on the just
Speaker 3: come get a churl from right right, I'm making right now.
Speaker 3: I'm like, that's fucking awesome. It is. There's no rules Facebook.
Speaker 3: While there is everyone you can get into whatever political
Speaker 3: debate with your friends you went to high school with
Speaker 3: anywhere other than that the stuff that has nothing to
Speaker 3: do with anyone, you know, on Facebook is Golden Taylor
Speaker 3: Swift shoulder gate. It is on any picture of anyone
Speaker 3: and it will be the weird everyone is. Their face
Speaker 3: is cropped like it's a shot from mister Robot where
Speaker 3: they're like just stuck in a bottom corner. It's just
Speaker 3: some guy who has no idea. We can all see
Speaker 3: he has a wife and he'll just be like aging
Speaker 3: poorly on like a picture of like some actress or
Speaker 3: something like what's going on? Martin Ericsson from from Wisconsin
Speaker 3: Information like your job.
Speaker 1: They just got to Facebook and was like this is good.
Speaker 1: This is this is the Internet. I don't need to
Speaker 1: go anywhere else. And they never learned anything about.
Speaker 3: I saw my brother is moving out to Los Angeles
Speaker 3: and he's looking for a place, and I've been looking
Speaker 3: at apartments. I saw an Affron apartment today that was
Speaker 3: like this is nice, blah blah blah parking. Do have
Speaker 3: to let you know someone and died in here? Yeah?
Speaker 3: And I'm like, yeah, I don't just let me know
Speaker 3: that on Facebook. But it is, Yeah, it's incredible.
Speaker 2: Maybe when I see the place and they be like
Speaker 2: and you love it right, just so you know, you
Speaker 2: notice how the windows are flapping shut on their own, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: thanks for ignoring the goo that comes out of the
Speaker 2: outlets that looks like blood.
Speaker 3: We don't we still don't know what that is. Kyle,
Speaker 3: what's up? Do you think is overrated?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 3: Fucking robots? Robots, robots? I hate him. I hate robots.
Speaker 3: You just watch electric age too, man, electric State or whatever.
Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't want you to have. I don't
Speaker 3: want anything that does two things. I don't like it.
Speaker 3: I hate you.
Speaker 2: Like when you see posts now that's like, well we
Speaker 2: asked chat GPT what it thinks about.
Speaker 3: I don't care. I don't want to know. There's no
Speaker 3: value to that to me. It doesn't know words. I'm
Speaker 3: so tired of it all. Yeah, just yeah. I don't
Speaker 3: want people to do stuff. I don't want my car
Speaker 3: to have no driver in it. I am just tired. Yeah,
Speaker 3: we would if we didn't make any more of them. Yeah,
Speaker 3: every anything.
Speaker 2: I think the rule of thumb now in our era
Speaker 2: feels like anything that keeps us away from interacting with
Speaker 2: people is the devil and we should be cast in
Speaker 2: a way because it's obviously like helpful.
Speaker 3: Methods and and things that robots do that help people,
Speaker 3: and everyone's abilities are limited in different ways, and there's
Speaker 3: positives to this, but generally, generally, I'm just like the
Speaker 3: robots that deliver food. I hate you every everyone skirting
Speaker 3: and the shortcuts are But this is all stemming from
Speaker 3: me just saying a bunch of stuff that's like, well,
Speaker 3: I asked, we asked chat GPT who should be president,
Speaker 3: and it said, I don't care. It's not real and
Speaker 3: if it agrees with you, and what, Yeah, it's none
Speaker 3: of it. It's why are we giving it weight like
Speaker 3: it has an opinion. It's a calculator. The only word
Speaker 3: calculator should know is boobs upside down. Yeah, and other
Speaker 3: or go to hell, go to hell. Yes for my
Speaker 3: t I eighty nine hackers, I'm old. Other than that,
Speaker 3: I'm just like I've had enough of the robots. I'm
Speaker 3: just I'm sorry. I don't think we they're even fine.
Speaker 3: They don't need equal weight to people.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, well, I mean those articles are such
Speaker 2: like those are just coming from like chat GPT shill
Speaker 2: yeah out you just see whole sports articles that are
Speaker 2: all written by a robot, and you're just like, you know,
Speaker 2: we can tell, I can tell when the art is
Speaker 2: the robot art.
Speaker 3: I don't know what you think. Yeah, you're not tricking anyone.
Speaker 3: It's a gradient. Yeah sorry.
Speaker 1: Three caps are really have really been taken over by
Speaker 1: robots in a way that I'm so tired.
Speaker 3: Sucks.
Speaker 2: Oh that And now they're just like just summarizing bodycam
Speaker 2: footage video and under like a true crime genre on YouTube.
Speaker 2: And it's like on March eighteenth, twenty twenty two, this
Speaker 2: man was like, it's they're just basically putting like chat
Speaker 2: gpt ai narration over other videos and just making a
Speaker 2: ton It's that.
Speaker 3: Whole when you google something and it's like, hey, just
Speaker 3: so you know, now we lead off with incorrect misinformation
Speaker 3: and then we'll get to the links and I'm like,
Speaker 3: I don't want I don't I know, I can turn
Speaker 3: it off. I don't want to. I don't want to
Speaker 3: have to take extra steps to stop a robot from
Speaker 3: telling me what to do. Yeah, just use a different
Speaker 3: webs this this episode is going to be how I die.
Speaker 3: Like this, I'll be in front of the Robot Tribunal
Speaker 3: and yeah yeah yeah three years and they'll be playing
Speaker 3: this back out of one of their stomachs.
Speaker 2: That's like did you see, like have you I just
Speaker 2: I don't know, just I was fucking bored as ship.
Speaker 3: I was falling asleep.
Speaker 2: But I turned on that Chris Pratt movie The Electric
Speaker 2: State that was like a big flop on Netflix, and
Speaker 2: that whole premise is about the fucking robot wars and
Speaker 2: how like there had to be a truce between human
Speaker 2: and robot because they were going to rise up against
Speaker 2: the people and there's like all this anti robot and
Speaker 2: I was just like, dude, this is so stupid.
Speaker 3: I just turned it off, like.
Speaker 1: Anti robot propaganda, like we're hearing from Kyle here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, someone, yeah.
Speaker 3: I was.
Speaker 1: Somebody was saying that the robot car that drives you
Speaker 1: around Waimo. I think like they I've never been in one,
Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, you gotta go in one, And
Speaker 1: I was like, what's good about it? Other like, I
Speaker 1: think it's slow from the gimmick, it's slower, and they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: you know, like you don't have to like talk to
Speaker 1: the driver.
Speaker 3: I was like, that is that? Yeah, that's not that that. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I understand that that is the thing that that that
Speaker 3: people have anxiety about, and ultimately it feels short sighted
Speaker 3: to be like, I think that that we shouldn't remove
Speaker 3: that simply because you know, I'm just like, I don't know,
Speaker 3: it's all. I don't know.
Speaker 2: I a person shouldn't have a job because I don't
Speaker 2: want to talk to them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know that there are every time I
Speaker 3: say anything on the internet, I'm like, I understand that
Speaker 3: there's three people who have specific limitations that this could
Speaker 3: really really affect. And I just I want to earnestly
Speaker 3: be like, but I don't mean this if for you,
Speaker 3: like if you are if you have something something that
Speaker 3: is like really affecting you in a real way. I
Speaker 3: ultimately I just am so. I saw a way most
Speaker 3: stopped in Los Angeles because a guy laid on the
Speaker 3: hood and covered the cameras while it was at a
Speaker 3: light and it couldn't go anywhere and the person had
Speaker 3: to sit in it and wait for this guy to
Speaker 3: get off it. They do that.
Speaker 2: There's another thing I saw on like San Francisco. People
Speaker 2: are putting his traffic cones on the hood and that
Speaker 2: would just completely fucking fry it. And they're like, aha,
Speaker 2: bricked it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just so tired of it. I'm just so
Speaker 3: tired of everything being a robot.
Speaker 2: Yeah no, damn, bro, I know you sound like the
Speaker 2: beginning of the Electric State right now.
Speaker 3: When they do the Electric State, we're actually we're rebooting it.
Speaker 3: We're doing a live action version of that live action movie.
Speaker 1: Live or action or even live or action, but.
Speaker 3: Just cleaning it up a little bit. It's liver action.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break, we'll come back,
Speaker 1: We'll talk about what's going on in the news.
Speaker 3: We'll be ready back and we're back. Yeah, yeah, and yeah.
Speaker 1: So we're starting to hear some stories about things changing
Speaker 1: on government websites. Stories just getting slight updates. Yeah, like
Speaker 1: little tweaks.
Speaker 2: Little adjustments, because they're doing away with DEI and you know,
Speaker 2: just a little. I am a student of history, so
Speaker 2: just and I love to just compare everything to Nazis,
Speaker 2: because that's the thing to do right now.
Speaker 3: But again, these.
Speaker 2: Totalitarian regimes, they are very serious. Or as the Germans
Speaker 2: said about synchronizing German culture with Nazi ideology, it's a
Speaker 2: huge first step, meaning they wanted to purge the culture
Speaker 2: of ideas coming from the people they felt were quote
Speaker 2: on Germans, those Jewish authors, pacifist, socialist communists, fucking Ernest Hemingway,
Speaker 2: fucking whoever, just just get it the fuck out if
Speaker 2: it's not completely in line with our white supremacy. And
Speaker 2: the path toward that synchronization was through book like book burnings,
Speaker 2: which a lot of people are seeing have like have
Speaker 2: seen those images or you've seen Indiana Jones, And they
Speaker 2: basically because they want to control culture and history. You know,
Speaker 2: that's that's the whole point. And you know, if people
Speaker 2: are so ground down and have no ideas to inspire
Speaker 2: them because of the lack of art or literature and
Speaker 2: things around them that like inspires them, that makes subordination
Speaker 2: to the regime much easier. And that's what the nazis dowing, like,
Speaker 2: that's what we need to do. Let's let's fucking really
Speaker 2: hammer that point in.
Speaker 3: And I think this.
Speaker 1: Changes the stories that people tell each other to exactly
Speaker 1: make meaning yeah, exactly, and do away with any values
Speaker 1: that seem like they are going to be diametrically opposed
Speaker 1: or form any kind of like reasonable opposition to the regime.
Speaker 2: So this is what we're seeing on a daily basis
Speaker 2: now in America, like Trump's controlling culture and history with
Speaker 2: his like hijacking of the Kennedy Center and cutting off
Speaker 2: grants to higher ed and just deleting whole segments of
Speaker 2: US history from agency websites. So in the last couple
Speaker 2: of weeks, Oh yeah, go on.
Speaker 3: I while I think that Trump taking over the Kennedy
Speaker 3: Center is a bad thing historically, I don't mind him
Speaker 3: being in more theat just because you've heard that he
Speaker 3: enjoys theater. Yeah, yeah, yeah, right, the historical precedent is there.
Speaker 3: Who I don't know of any modern actors I think
Speaker 3: that could jump off a balcony and live. But we'll see, Yeah,
Speaker 3: we'll see, We'll see one of the stars guards is
Speaker 3: nimble enough.
Speaker 2: They're tall enough, definite enough to be able to like
Speaker 2: cut down on that impact. But again, like the last
Speaker 2: couple of weeks, the DEI purge in the military has
Speaker 2: begun in terms of first just deleting thousands of images
Speaker 2: and like web pages for people like the Tuskegee Airmen,
Speaker 2: Native American code talkers. Didn't calling a Black Medal of
Speaker 2: Honor winner from the Vietnam War a DEI medal recipient?
Speaker 1: Where did that?
Speaker 3: Like? Did they?
Speaker 2: They just changed it to that on the website. Yeah,
Speaker 2: like the web the U r L change to DEI medal.
Speaker 2: That's like they're just doing fucking dunk.
Speaker 3: Can I say that sounds like the sickest genre of music?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I metal? Yeah yeah, I'm metal. That sounds
Speaker 3: so metal. What's generally is a very you know, inclusive
Speaker 3: genre of music. Anyways, this is another thing robots are doing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and like even like recently, the most recent thing
Speaker 1: was like just really just deleting Jackie Robinson, like a
Speaker 1: page about Jackie Robinson's time in the Arm Force, just
Speaker 1: like being like, nah, fucking get rid of it.
Speaker 2: They are so fucking stupid. They're just searching for ship like.
Speaker 3: The word gay and deleting anything.
Speaker 2: And and people notice that included images of the fucking
Speaker 2: Inola Gay, which is the plane that dropped the bomb
Speaker 2: on Hiroshima.
Speaker 3: They're like, he's got gay in it. It's gone.
Speaker 2: And like I thought, you like fucking would love to
Speaker 2: memorialize that moment. No, okay, and again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Nola Nola, big hard dick.
Speaker 3: There's only two bombs, two genders. That's it. That's it.
Speaker 3: Fat man and little boy, the two genders and little boys.
Speaker 3: Like why Republican senators keep getting in trouble right, But
Speaker 3: again I.
Speaker 2: Think just like looking at all this the like we
Speaker 2: and we've all seen this, this whole de purge, it's
Speaker 2: all again they're full frontal attack on our sense of
Speaker 2: like tolerance, equality, fucking rights. And you know, some of
Speaker 2: these deletions have been restored due to public outrage. But again, like,
Speaker 2: it's really troubling when you think about that in the
Speaker 2: context especially of World War two, how that was like
Speaker 2: that helped nudge America towards being slightly less racist when
Speaker 2: they're like, wow, it's not just all white people that
Speaker 2: were like willing to die for this fucking place. Huh,
Speaker 2: maybe there's something more a wider truth about this place.
Speaker 2: But yeah, again, I just think it's very this this
Speaker 2: whole thing that they're doing now is like the lazy
Speaker 2: book burning thing where they just want to again completely
Speaker 2: erase any semblance of what the country had or the
Speaker 2: values that it has in exchange for just fully trying
Speaker 2: to take the clock back because they're just a bunch
Speaker 2: of scared, fucking dickheads, which is changing a website will
Speaker 2: completely change how we look at the world and each other.
Speaker 3: But we shall see.
Speaker 2: This seems to be their their their favorite plan of
Speaker 2: attack at the moment, it's just a sneakily just erase things.
Speaker 1: It is rhetorically difficult because we've been comparing them to
Speaker 1: Nazis for a long time because they're doing Nazi shit,
Speaker 1: but like not openly Nazi shit, And now that they're
Speaker 1: doing it just openly, like in the most straightforward way,
Speaker 1: it's just like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean there they are, right, Like, there's no
Speaker 3: need to get exhausted from comparing a group of people
Speaker 3: to another group of people when they keep doing new
Speaker 3: comparative things. Yeah, where you're just like, ah, you know,
Speaker 3: I hate to be continually comparing them. But it's like, well, yeah,
Speaker 3: but then there's another thing on a checklist, like if
Speaker 3: you keep doing more different things like a group, the
Speaker 3: comparisons will continue to be there. It's it's not that
Speaker 3: it's in fact, it's less of a stretch, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I think yeah, it's like when we say
Speaker 1: it's like, why the fuck would they do this, it's again,
Speaker 1: you just want to grind people down to the point
Speaker 1: that you're just like fuck whatever, man, they win whatever.
Speaker 3: And there is something like if you if they were
Speaker 3: moving let's say two hundred of something and then they're like, oh, yeah, no,
Speaker 3: we put that one back. There will be people on
Speaker 3: on the right or like see, but they it's still there.
Speaker 3: The one, the one thing, the one example is still there.
Speaker 3: It says Jackie Robinson still played baseball online somewhere. So
Speaker 3: I don't know what you guys are upset.
Speaker 2: Right, Dodgers fans will never forget.
Speaker 3: All right, Well there.
Speaker 1: He has a pretty comprehensive vision when it comes to
Speaker 1: not just history, but the arts, and that's coming out.
Speaker 1: His vision is coming out with his work with regards
Speaker 1: to the Kennedy Center, which you know, it's that there.
Speaker 1: It's a venue they often honor artists, and he recently
Speaker 1: fired the board of the Kennedy Center, writing on social
Speaker 1: media that they do not share our vision for a
Speaker 1: gold An age in arts and culture, which is like
Speaker 1: very that that sounds, I don't know, very like cultural
Speaker 1: revolution extreme meant to. Then, he just had a meeting
Speaker 1: with the new board, who are a bunch of Trump loyalists,
Speaker 1: and it was a doozy. So we have leaked audio
Speaker 1: from the meeting, and his vision includes remounting Andrew Lloyd
Speaker 1: Webber's Cats m the play with people going around as cats. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: and he but he like has this thing where you see,
Speaker 1: like actors go on a late night show and they
Speaker 1: feel like they have to justify that they like aren't
Speaker 1: theater people. So they're like, yeah, I actually did it
Speaker 1: for the chicks like that.
Speaker 3: That's how that's how I got into it. That's I
Speaker 3: actually got into it for girls.
Speaker 1: I had an injury that made it so I couldn't
Speaker 1: play football. Uh, and then I just saw these girls
Speaker 1: because of bone spurs.
Speaker 3: You guys aren't gonna believe this and some bone spurs.
Speaker 3: Let me just sing Cats on Broadway.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, So he told the story of how he
Speaker 1: loved cats but he had to couch it as like,
Speaker 1: first I thought it was weird, but then I saw
Speaker 1: how hot the girl cats are.
Speaker 3: I liked that. The science confused him. He's like, I
Speaker 3: just couldn't. I don't know how they.
Speaker 2: Made the cats talk like technology wise they were we
Speaker 2: should investigate that. Yes, they weren't walking on all fours.
Speaker 1: It's also a weird part in the leaked audio where
Speaker 1: he talks about going to Broadway as a young star.
Speaker 3: I was a young star. They were very excited to
Speaker 3: have me there.
Speaker 1: And then he was with quote somebody I should not
Speaker 1: have been there with.
Speaker 2: Yeah, very curious what that's in reference to. Yeah, that's
Speaker 2: about an underage person or right, that's the That's the
Speaker 2: thing about his mental decline is like he's gonna start
Speaker 2: slipping saying why what I mean, anybody who's had family
Speaker 2: go down this path?
Speaker 3: There's a time when the ship is just starts. What
Speaker 3: do you find out about secret families? All stuff like that?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 3: Yeah, for real? Right?
Speaker 2: And did you there's there was a moment where he
Speaker 2: was at the Kennedy Center talking and like the NBC
Speaker 2: camera got pulled while he was talking for some reason
Speaker 2: and they cut the feed. Oh really, what the fuck
Speaker 2: was that about. Some people were like, it's because he's
Speaker 2: starting to ramble, and they're like, oh, let's just not
Speaker 2: get this on tape because this is like a bad
Speaker 2: look for Trump.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he so just his description in his words
Speaker 1: of being wooed hearing the first siren call of the
Speaker 1: theater is that he showed up and he was initially
Speaker 1: turned off by the sight of dozens of dancers lying
Speaker 1: on stage. He recalled, thinking, you've got to be kidding me.
Speaker 1: Let's get out of here. I walked in But then,
Speaker 1: and here's the twist. I walked in, I saw all
Speaker 1: these bodies, and then I noticed those bodies were gorgeous.
Speaker 1: They had silk tights on, and they were all ballerinas
Speaker 1: and women from Broadway and men. I didn't find those
Speaker 1: particular bodies as attractive. To be honest, clarify, it's.
Speaker 3: So funny to just be so You're like, you're so
Speaker 3: wildly insecure, even in your most private, secure moments. Yes, right,
Speaker 3: he could have been talking. I bet he was talking
Speaker 3: to a mirror. It's like I didn't like the boys.
Speaker 3: I didn't like that as much. With him checking over
Speaker 3: the Kennedy Center, I am excited to see like John
Speaker 3: Voight play mister Mestopheles. I think that this is some
Speaker 3: really fun casting that we could get into James Woods too.
Speaker 3: I haven't seen Mark Wahlberg playing something in Cats, and
Speaker 3: I think that we It will be a fun revival
Speaker 3: for many careers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, this weird complaints about who is honored
Speaker 1: by Kennedy Center. I'm trying to think of, like, who
Speaker 1: is typically honored by the Kennedy Center? Is is that
Speaker 1: where they do the Mark Twain.
Speaker 3: I think Center honors are separate.
Speaker 1: They're like, yeah, I think yeah, But either way, according
Speaker 1: to him, it's they're they're kind of known for giving
Speaker 1: awards to radical left lunatics and should really start cool, JHO,
Speaker 1: really start honoring more people like Pavaratti, Elvis and Babe Ruth.
Speaker 3: The fuck are you talking about?
Speaker 1: They just look.
Speaker 2: At that list of people. A lot of your favorites
Speaker 2: are on there. Trump, so heaby Ruth is still alive,
Speaker 2: that's the thing.
Speaker 1: And then he's like, you should honor Steve Win, the
Speaker 1: casino owner, Like why doesn't Steve Winn have a Kennedy thing?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 1: And then finally, to give us a sense of like
Speaker 1: what all of this is about, he offered He's like,
Speaker 1: I'll host the award show myself. Yes, I know, I
Speaker 1: don't want to do it. I don't want to, but
Speaker 1: they'll twist my arm because I'm king of ratings.
Speaker 3: Oh Jesus Christ. So excited to see Scott BeO tussle
Speaker 3: his hair on the Kennedy Center stage. Yeah, it'll be
Speaker 3: a great coming together with Lorenzo. I mean, this is
Speaker 3: is this just another way for him to give something
Speaker 3: to people who give him something, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: He needs like output for his input. So if people
Speaker 3: are giving him things, this has to be like a
Speaker 3: lesser purchase, like almost like when you do a fundraiser
Speaker 3: for school and you sell candy bars and you get
Speaker 3: prizes or whatever. This is like the lower totem of
Speaker 3: the prizing. This isn't like a cabinet position, but this
Speaker 3: is like I can give you a Kennedy Center on
Speaker 3: it's something for your mantle.
Speaker 2: Yeah that or also I just think, because the whole
Speaker 2: thing is about a cultural realignment, is that the Kennedy
Speaker 2: Center sort of stands as this sort of thing. It's
Speaker 2: like the Libs control it. They're not giving it to
Speaker 2: people like Steve Winwood or whatever, whoever the fuck he's
Speaker 2: into you. I mean like Steve winn Lagio, Sorry, my bad,
Speaker 2: my bad, love win.
Speaker 3: Wamegm Grand, all of my friends, Cherry Benedict from Motions eleven,
Speaker 3: Luther luxor Luther luxor the pyramid scheme.
Speaker 2: But I mean like in that sense, it's like, oh,
Speaker 2: now we get to decide, and now we are the
Speaker 2: people who say who's number one, and it's not artists,
Speaker 2: it's just whatever figures on the right to just again
Speaker 2: say these are the most exalted figures, not artists, not people.
Speaker 3: Who are you know, performing or whatever. Yeah, this thing
Speaker 3: we made fun of for being unimportant, it's surprisingly important
Speaker 3: now that we picked the winner, right. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Also, Pavaratti did receive it in two thousand and one.
Speaker 3: He did.
Speaker 1: He Pavaratti got one already. He just wants to go
Speaker 1: back and give him another one now that he's done.
Speaker 1: It's just it feels like it's the same shit as him.
Speaker 1: You know, we've seen that, Like during his campaign, he
Speaker 1: kept just like hijacking events to just play DJ, like
Speaker 1: play music and just be like, yeah, the ship, this
Speaker 1: ship goes, doesn't it.
Speaker 3: Your Kennedy Center honors a village person, right right, right
Speaker 3: then the army man from the village people. A village person.
Speaker 3: Army man is the illegal name.
Speaker 1: That is the last thing that they don't have and
Speaker 1: probably will never have, and keep trying, as we'll get
Speaker 1: to with the snow White story, but they keep wanting
Speaker 1: to have to be cool, and it's just something they'll
Speaker 1: never be able to have.
Speaker 3: Like they're hating Hollywood and hating the elite, and hating
Speaker 3: New York and hating theater. They sure are wanting to
Speaker 3: buy and boycotting all of Hollywood and and and and
Speaker 3: theater in New.
Speaker 1: York, right, Yeah, I mean he he's always wanted that approval,
Speaker 1: like he's always said, like he's always behind closed doors,
Speaker 1: called his supporters like disgusting. Yeah, so he like he
Speaker 1: doesn't want his most famous musician supporter to be kid rock.
Speaker 1: You know, he wants it to be beyond, like he
Speaker 1: would he would die to be like honored with an
Speaker 1: honorary Oscar.
Speaker 3: You know. Yeah, he was so put off by Taylor
Speaker 3: Swift actually saying something anti.
Speaker 1: Hit really like that seems to be the thing that
Speaker 1: really hurts them is they're no matter what, they'll never
Speaker 1: be cool. I think the closest they came was during
Speaker 1: this past election because they were not in power, and
Speaker 1: now they're in power and everybody fucking hates them. And
Speaker 1: Elon Musk is like holding back tears, you know, like it's, yeah,
Speaker 1: it is the thing, like no matter what they say,
Speaker 1: it's the thing that they actually want.
Speaker 3: They do this all to be cool.
Speaker 1: And they can't be. They just like can't. It's everything
Speaker 1: they do is works against that.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well it's like it's they just want so badly.
Speaker 2: He's like Why can't having no empathy be an engine
Speaker 2: for creating great art?
Speaker 3: Right? Yeah, for some reason, we do a little research
Speaker 3: on that. Yeah, we'll see what happens.
Speaker 7: All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be
Speaker 7: right back. And we're back.
Speaker 1: We are back, and the movie we all keep hearing
Speaker 1: about now the Air up?
Speaker 3: No, sorry, Kevin, a classic. That was what we were
Speaker 3: talking about before. Wasn't Adrian Brody in that one? Uh?
Speaker 3: Yeah he.
Speaker 1: Was?
Speaker 2: He was Sally the African basketball player the Kyle Airs
Speaker 2: up theres what so?
Speaker 1: I I knew that they were making a snow white
Speaker 1: remake because of the racist backlash, because of the races backlash.
Speaker 1: That's basically how it came on our radar on this show.
Speaker 1: But yeah, they've been having a lot of success doing
Speaker 1: the like I was blown away to see, like a
Speaker 1: couple of years after it came out, we were looking
Speaker 1: at like the ten box office grossers, like movies of
Speaker 1: all time, and like the Lion King live action remake
Speaker 1: was like on there. It's like between Jurassic Park and
Speaker 1: like et. It's like the quotation.
Speaker 3: Marks around live action are doing a lot of heavy
Speaker 3: drifting in the animals Talk movie I'm not sure how
Speaker 3: many cameras were there, right, that's right, but the plates
Speaker 3: on cameras.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's wild, like a movie that feels like
Speaker 1: it never happened is still like one of the most
Speaker 1: financially successful, like whatever.
Speaker 3: It's that you just can't fathom all those people ever
Speaker 3: being in the same room. It's like an ungettable group
Speaker 3: of people, unbookable cast. Yeah, but you just get to it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they'll do it individually, in separate you know,
Speaker 1: trailers or whatever.
Speaker 3: Everything's computer movies. I do like the idea of someone
Speaker 3: like Heavy like explaining to Beyonce how to change her
Speaker 3: input in garage band. That's I mean, she's a recording artist.
Speaker 3: She probably knows how to do that. That's but she's
Speaker 3: the most famous person in the movie. I assume famous
Speaker 3: people can't use inputs. John all of it your second pole,
Speaker 3: he would be to be your second poll from.
Speaker 2: The most famous persons Beyonce, j Kevin Bacon, Sabrina Carpenter.
Speaker 1: All right, so they're somewhat soulless, I guess, is what
Speaker 1: I'd say. It feels a little like CGI slop, but
Speaker 1: it's incredibly profitable because so you got the two quadrants.
Speaker 1: All Right, you got the people who saw the first
Speaker 1: movie and still like that movie, uh, the first Lion King,
Speaker 1: and then you got these younger audiences who will never
Speaker 1: know the joy of seeing the first movie without having
Speaker 1: this kind of it's like high level AI slop is
Speaker 1: what it feels like.
Speaker 2: A little bit that is a good way of like
Speaker 2: they just copy pasted the YouTube link to the first movie.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And the other point that people have made is that like,
Speaker 1: like thinking about it like a business person, you're like, well,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of hard work that has already been done,
Speaker 1: Like they've already like designed these shots, and we don't
Speaker 1: have to pay those people.
Speaker 3: At all, Like you don't have to pay them on
Speaker 3: get a shot for shot remake of Psycho And we
Speaker 3: all dragged him for it, and then people at Disney
Speaker 3: were like, yeah, but what if we did this with
Speaker 3: other stuff?
Speaker 1: What if we did this like with stuff that actually.
Speaker 3: Everything we've ever done.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is a remake of a nineteen thirty
Speaker 1: seven film, So I actually am skeptical that there's a
Speaker 1: ton of people who are still left over from that
Speaker 1: initial r.
Speaker 3: I hired a lot of the same animators, right, Yeah,
Speaker 3: the union was stronger back then.
Speaker 2: A lot of people with the same mental state as
Speaker 2: nineteen Yeah.
Speaker 1: For some reason, the history kind of rhymes, but apparently
Speaker 1: it's good. Like the early critical reaction is that it's
Speaker 1: like pretty good for a snow White movie, like Rachel Ziggler,
Speaker 1: who is playing playing the titular snow White just you know,
Speaker 1: her star power shines through according to early critics, and
Speaker 1: Disney is like burying it, which is weird, Like that
Speaker 1: the very opposite of what they did with The Lion King,
Speaker 1: when when it was just like the biggest media event
Speaker 1: of the year for a thing that ended up being
Speaker 1: kind of nothing.
Speaker 2: It's been so many contras, like the fans, there's so
Speaker 2: many loud ass hater fans from the beginning that it's
Speaker 2: just like hammered Disney like into a corner. And then
Speaker 2: on top of that, like the the Rachel Zeggler saying
Speaker 2: things about the movie that people are like, how dare
Speaker 2: she talk up characterize a thing from nineteen thirty seven
Speaker 2: is potentially being backwards.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she says, one more thing has changed in one
Speaker 3: hundred years. I'm gonna lose my mind in my thirty
Speaker 3: dollars house.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they are doing the thing that they like move
Speaker 1: the Flash that Ezra Miller Flash Movie did, where they like,
Speaker 1: don't let press come to the premiere, Like they're still
Speaker 1: throwing a premiere, but they're not letting press come to it.
Speaker 3: Or it just happened earlier this week. Yeah, yeah, it's just.
Speaker 1: The movie cost two hundred and seventy million dollars.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it is crazy that they're like, you know
Speaker 3: how much snow White costs the Fox? Right, we bought
Speaker 3: that Fox.
Speaker 1: We bought Fox for that amount of money.
Speaker 2: We bought all of the things a Fox em since
Speaker 2: right right, Yeah, No, it's because even too. The other
Speaker 2: thing that was really telling is like the pre sale
Speaker 2: for the tickets was like only like a week out
Speaker 2: from the premiere, where anytime you have like a supposed
Speaker 2: tent pole film, you're doing more than like a week
Speaker 2: to try and get pre sale figures up.
Speaker 3: And it seemed like.
Speaker 2: Very early on maybe people were yeah, yeah, it could
Speaker 2: already buy tickets.
Speaker 3: To like the Avengers Doomsday movie, right, really yeah in
Speaker 3: the twenty thirties, yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and then there yeah, there's a controversy. Rachel
Speaker 1: Zigler has said some things hugely controversial about the sexual
Speaker 1: politics of the first movie, which, by the way, like
Speaker 1: going back and watching the first movie, I did this
Speaker 1: for the Bechdel cast. Like snow White is only like
Speaker 1: anytime she does something with her own agency, she like
Speaker 1: knocks herself out, Like she like runs into the woods
Speaker 1: and like knocks herself.
Speaker 3: Out like running the buttons to a video game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the only exactly the only good things that happened
Speaker 1: to her is when she's unconscious, Like literally she's unconscious,
Speaker 1: and then all the animals like fall in love with her.
Speaker 1: She's passed out in like the dwarf's bed, and like
Speaker 1: the they are about to like stab her with an
Speaker 1: ice pick and then or with a pick axe pick axe,
Speaker 1: and like they just fall in love with her because
Speaker 1: she's so pretty when she's asleep. When she's awake, she
Speaker 1: runs into the woods and like knocks herself out by
Speaker 1: like running into branches. She she eats a poison the
Speaker 1: most clearly poisoned apple of all time in.
Speaker 3: Even like even Eve was like whoa whoa whoa whoa
Speaker 3: whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah woman.
Speaker 1: And then the ultimate thing that saves her, she's in
Speaker 1: a coma in like a weird glass coffin in the
Speaker 1: middle of the woods, and like Prince Charming comes by
Speaker 1: and saves her by like falling in love with her
Speaker 1: again because of how pretty she is while she's asleep.
Speaker 1: That that is her superpower is being pretty when she's
Speaker 1: not making decisions or like messing it up by being
Speaker 1: having free will, she's just passed out. It's like fucking
Speaker 1: Bill Cosby wrote the movie. It's really a weird and
Speaker 1: has some weird angles.
Speaker 2: Even like even when she was talking about She's just
Speaker 2: kind of like, yeah, it's a little you know, it's
Speaker 2: like nineteen thirty seven, so yeah, there are some things
Speaker 2: that yeah, yeah, yeah, and it's well again, this goes
Speaker 2: back to the racism because she's you know, Colombian and
Speaker 2: also Polish. That why can't they just focus on the
Speaker 2: Polish side and celebrate that, you know.
Speaker 3: What I mean? Like, yeah, it's fine because they have
Speaker 3: books in their bathrooms.
Speaker 2: I know, but like you look at too, Like even
Speaker 2: when Homegirl, who was hermione when she played Belle and
Speaker 2: Beauty and the Beast, she also was saying shit about
Speaker 2: like how you know the the new Emma Yes, Emma Watson, Yes,
Speaker 2: thank you.
Speaker 3: Super Catherine.
Speaker 2: She even had things to say about how the remake
Speaker 2: was like that there were just some things in the
Speaker 2: original that she was like, I don't know, but that
Speaker 2: sort of didn't cause the same kind of controversy. But again,
Speaker 2: because everything is all about yes, they tell.
Speaker 3: The difference in immediate reaction to these two actresses, It's
Speaker 3: just really hard for me to find something that could
Speaker 3: cause a knee jerk reaction from someone ready to be
Speaker 3: upset online.
Speaker 1: So she is being compared to gal Gado, who is
Speaker 1: the place the evil queen, Gal Gadot, who has served
Speaker 1: in the idea, literally served in the idea.
Speaker 3: Hey, Daniel day Lewis got into character early.
Speaker 1: Exactly, has been very outspokenly pro Israel since the start
Speaker 1: of the war in Gaza, and Rachel Ziggler, who's just said,
Speaker 1: you know, pro Palestine.
Speaker 3: There needs to be a ceasefire. Yeah, I think that
Speaker 3: at least the way they could like come together, as
Speaker 3: if Gal could get some sort of like vertical video
Speaker 3: song montage video put together to really just let us
Speaker 3: all unite.
Speaker 1: Just try and imagine a world where that happens.
Speaker 3: Never that I will, I will never forget about that.
Speaker 3: That's the turning point. In every in celebrity warship as
Speaker 3: a culture, I believe.
Speaker 1: I similarly think that that was a very important event.
Speaker 1: I'm still waiting for the long read on how it
Speaker 1: came back together.
Speaker 3: The Hall of the Snow White reboot is shot in
Speaker 3: front of Galgadot's like pool side cabana, where she's trying
Speaker 3: to relate to people. That's right.
Speaker 1: So it also so at the time that it came out,
Speaker 1: Benjapiro was like, I mean, her name is snow White,
Speaker 1: like that, this is white supremacist, and that's a good,
Speaker 1: a good thing, I guess, so much so that he
Speaker 1: started launched his own version of snow White because snow
Speaker 1: White is a public domain starring a conservative like YouTube star.
Speaker 3: And I thought you were joking earlier. No, no, no, no.
Speaker 3: I thought it was like because Ben Sparrow likes musicals
Speaker 3: and stuff, and I remember his reaction to Wicked being
Speaker 3: like a very viral thing. I thought you were actually
Speaker 3: messing with me. No, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 1: He was like, we're gonna bring it into our own
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be snow White, and she's gonna be
Speaker 1: really white. By the way, the person just looks the
Speaker 1: same amount of white as Rachel Tiggler, it's not like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's not like Disney's out here trying to fight for diversity.
Speaker 1: But anyways, they put out a trailer looked like shit,
Speaker 1: and that.
Speaker 3: Movie fell apart. So unfortunately they won't make it. They've
Speaker 3: never made it. No, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2: Of course, of course she's snow white?
Speaker 3: Are the people like this is?
Speaker 2: This is an American thing because it's Disney, And I'm like,
Speaker 2: can do you know anything about fucking snow white?
Speaker 3: Do you know who the brother's grim? Are they from America? Yeah?
Speaker 2: So Cleveland, I believe, Yeah, yeah, Cleveland, Germany.
Speaker 3: They explained to the energy I have while I'm there.
Speaker 1: But yeah, like it really doesn't makes it if I
Speaker 1: had to guess why Disney is just completely burying a
Speaker 1: movie that costs them two hundred and seventy million dollars,
Speaker 1: whether it's their objection to Gal Gadot being pro Israeli
Speaker 1: or because they're ashamed that Rachel Ziggler says pro Palestine
Speaker 1: things every once in a while, and because they're trying,
Speaker 1: they're scared of being criticized by the right during this administration.
Speaker 1: I don't know which side is.
Speaker 3: More likely here.
Speaker 1: But yeah, they're they're just it seems somewhat cowardly to me.
Speaker 1: It's also kind of in keeping with their legacy because
Speaker 1: they've kind of been dicks about snow White from the start.
Speaker 1: The actress who voiced snow White was paid twenty dollars
Speaker 1: a day and was not listed, was not listed in
Speaker 1: the credits, and Walt Disney just blackballed her from ever
Speaker 1: appearing in anything ever again, allegedly so that her because
Speaker 1: he was like, that would ruin the snow White illusion.
Speaker 2: Right, That's why I also have her sleeping in this
Speaker 2: glass coffin in the middle of nowhere, right every now
Speaker 2: and then give her water and food.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I just don't want to destroy the illusion. Yeah.
Speaker 2: That's so wild though too though, like that like that
Speaker 2: old tiny way of doing this. I mean, they're still
Speaker 2: blacklisting actors now, so what am I saying?
Speaker 3: But like twenty dollars a day is like you can
Speaker 3: make almost double that now.
Speaker 1: Right for voice acting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, just like our whole equipment, that texture
Speaker 2: of being like you, I own you and the voice,
Speaker 2: and I can disappear you, my pretty and that's the
Speaker 2: fucking end of it.
Speaker 3: Anyway, So the actor I'm just reading the die the
Speaker 3: actress who voice is also about being Adrianna Cascilotti. I'm sorry,
Speaker 3: no one seeing her would change the image of snow white.
Speaker 3: I don't even know what she looks like. I'm picturing
Speaker 3: Adriana from The Sopranos, but purely based on name the mystique.
Speaker 3: I guess there were eight movies then, you know they
Speaker 3: were like, well, whoa, whoa, whoa, No one can ride
Speaker 3: that train came at the screen, do you know what
Speaker 3: I mean?
Speaker 1: They were There's still that point of like movies where
Speaker 1: they're like, we don't want to ruin the.
Speaker 3: Magic translates what Casablanca turns to. Do you know what
Speaker 3: I mean? He's gonna have some real gripes with where
Speaker 3: that movie took.
Speaker 1: What if they were on the other side, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm just just spitball in here, but yeah, they're like that.
Speaker 1: People are if if this woman goes out and goes
Speaker 1: on like one one of these talk shows she's people
Speaker 1: are gonna really like literally Jack Benny invited her to
Speaker 1: come on his radio show and she was like yeah,
Speaker 1: and then they were like, we checked with Walt Walt
Speaker 1: says no, because then people will think that the drawing
Speaker 1: is not singing. They'll know that you're an actual person.
Speaker 3: And oh, only Walt Disney knew how dumb people are
Speaker 3: falling for deep fakes now, where it isn't even the
Speaker 3: actual real person singing a song. Yeah, show him a
Speaker 3: Snapchat filter. Let's blow his frozen head.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, he's probably fucking he'd probably redie.
Speaker 3: How is that a dog? No?
Speaker 2: I don't have ears like that though, or a big
Speaker 2: puffy snout.
Speaker 1: Well, Kyle, it's been a pleasure having you as always always.
Speaker 3: Where can people find you? Follow you all that good stuff? Yeah, uh,
Speaker 3: I'm Kyle Aer's on most of the platforms, or if
Speaker 3: you search him, the one that looks like me. And
