Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of the
Speaker 1: antem My Friends is trending in the wind. That one
Speaker 1: courtesy of Vanadium Silver on the discord and years of
Speaker 1: singing lesson for me, My name is Jack.
Speaker 2: That is Miles, Hello everybody.
Speaker 1: For you? He worked for five years, what trained himself
Speaker 1: for five years?
Speaker 3: The goat like shit the goat?
Speaker 1: All right, so my goat is Michael Jordan's still, then
Speaker 1: shall make them lebron.
Speaker 3: My goat the unborn child also known as a zygoat.
Speaker 3: Then that's my goat.
Speaker 2: I hear you, man. It is Tuesday, March fourth.
Speaker 3: Fucking activists and got posters of ygoats on their wall.
Speaker 3: That one that one became Ronald Reagan.
Speaker 1: Oh, that would actually be a good racket for selling bullshit.
Speaker 2: To sell life people, you get.
Speaker 1: Random like sonograms sonograms and then sell them be like,
Speaker 1: that's fucking Jordan right there. Do you want to trump
Speaker 1: rookie card, the most Jordan rookie card possible?
Speaker 3: Oh, y'all talk about that flair eighty five rookie Nah
Speaker 3: na na, no, this is the most expensive.
Speaker 2: Jordan A little bit? Uh yeah, gross, look at his hands?
Speaker 2: Can you tell? Get tell? Dude?
Speaker 1: All right, this is the episode where we tell you
Speaker 1: what's trending, and I'll tell you what's trending the dang
Speaker 1: stock market downward. And I am, for the first time
Speaker 1: starting to have some doubts about this Trump guy.
Speaker 3: What are you the Wall Street Journal? I am all
Speaker 3: of mainstream media, dude, the Was Street Journal. Last week
Speaker 3: you're like, don't fucking do the tariffs, dickhead? Are you
Speaker 3: seriously gonna fuck everything up? And then today like is
Speaker 3: this guy fucking like every offense? Like this shit's dumb?
Speaker 3: What are you doing?
Speaker 1: Man?
Speaker 3: We're the money paper and you're fucking up the money. So, yeah,
Speaker 3: the tariffs are here hit. We're basically again I'm saying
Speaker 3: we are.
Speaker 2: Tariffs are coming.
Speaker 3: The TIFFs are coming the year I guess the United States.
Speaker 3: We are hitting ourselves with twenty five percent tariffs on
Speaker 3: certain goods from Mexico and Canada and as well as
Speaker 3: twenty percent on goods from China. Again base China ourselves,
Speaker 3: and we are the ones China. This doesn't you know?
Speaker 3: This is what's really frustrating. You see a lot of
Speaker 3: the politicians going They're like, well, obviously, we gotta we gotta,
Speaker 3: we gotta tighten this trade deficit up a little bit.
Speaker 3: And then I just wish one journalist would go, Okay,
Speaker 3: can you explain how that tightening of the how that's
Speaker 3: going to reflect on cheaper prices for the consumer, just
Speaker 3: so they can understand how this this is actually a benefit.
Speaker 3: No one fucking Oh okay, this is a trade represent
Speaker 3: So again, this is sent like you said, Jack, markets
Speaker 3: crashing prices on certain materials soaring. Like on Maria Bartiromo
Speaker 3: show on Fox, she had a person had a Dodge
Speaker 3: dealership and he was like, this Dodge ram eighty thousand
Speaker 3: dollars normally. It just went up two hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 3: today instantly because of the term. And I'm like, we're
Speaker 3: just trying those yeah, son. So yeah, this has sent
Speaker 3: basically our neighbors to the north and South, just having
Speaker 3: them wondering are these stupid asses for real? Like all
Speaker 3: the things we hear like from Trudeau, he's like.
Speaker 1: Y'all, he's this is he's hurting to the American people
Speaker 1: real quick.
Speaker 2: I don't do this normally, but.
Speaker 3: Let me address my constituents really quick. The American people,
Speaker 3: Oh that it is so funny if you said that
Speaker 3: shit and then he's like, yeah, you guys are doing
Speaker 3: unfortunately he's doing this to you. You know, like we're
Speaker 3: trying to be chill, but you know, if you fucking
Speaker 3: push us around, we're we might be He's like, look,
Speaker 3: Canadians may be polite and well mannered, but we do fight.
Speaker 2: We had some of the best snipers world War two.
Speaker 2: You know, yeah, straight up. Okay, man, Hey.
Speaker 3: We won't forget Juno and sword Beach on D Day.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 3: But anyway, this is also like kind of one of
Speaker 3: those things where there are Republicans from agricultural states that
Speaker 3: are privately like you see a lot of anonymous quotes
Speaker 3: from these Congress people from these are agricultural states who
Speaker 3: are definitely worried because this will do damage. Like the
Speaker 3: last time, there are these trade wars happening to farmers
Speaker 3: specifically because you know, they have to export their crops
Speaker 3: for money, and a lot of these retaliatory tariffs are
Speaker 3: like zeroing in on these specific goods just to make
Speaker 3: it as uncomfortable as possible. Speaker Mike Johnson, though, is
Speaker 3: basically showing he's towing the line, and this is apparently
Speaker 3: what everyone is supposed to think on the right of
Speaker 3: these tariffs. Quote the America first agenda is to reset
Speaker 3: those relationships with other countries. Huh, basically saying that his
Speaker 3: intent wasn't to start a trade war or an adversarial thing. Quote,
Speaker 3: this is to continue good relationships and trade policies. I
Speaker 3: think this initiative will achieve that desired result. As the
Speaker 3: President said, just have a little patience with this, let
Speaker 3: it play out, see how it develops, and I think
Speaker 3: at the end of the day, America is going to
Speaker 3: be better off.
Speaker 1: False false doesn't seem false where things are headed like that.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 1: So we talked before about how Trump and like the tariffs,
Speaker 1: like it is a blunt instrument that can get a
Speaker 1: very specific return, like it can you can get a
Speaker 1: very specific objective with a tariff. Sure, so that they can,
Speaker 1: like I think in his first administration, he's like, let's do.
Speaker 2: This tariff, that tariff, this tariff, that tariff.
Speaker 1: And like the people his economic advisors were like, we'll
Speaker 1: let you do the one and like it had an
Speaker 1: effect that wasn't catastrophic.
Speaker 2: But now that there are no brit now it's just
Speaker 2: all gas, no breaks.
Speaker 1: He is putting all the tariffs out and it like
Speaker 1: it doesn't make sense to really anyone, Like, have you
Speaker 1: seen anybody really make a case for it.
Speaker 3: I think the I don't know if we're going full
Speaker 3: cynicism here. He's trying to tank the American economy.
Speaker 2: Fully, that's the goal ends because of the gold.
Speaker 3: It could be the gold gold, what is it the
Speaker 3: gold or what is it the crypto? You know what
Speaker 3: I mean, whatever it is, I think it's also a
Speaker 3: tool to weaken your adversaries who rely on the economy
Speaker 3: or the stock market to derive their wealth from. And
Speaker 3: you can kind of be like, watch me fuck it
Speaker 3: all up. I don't know, but like to try and
Speaker 3: game out the four dy chess here. I don't know.
Speaker 3: The most simple thing is like it seems like he's
Speaker 3: just trying to tank the fucking economy and this is
Speaker 3: one way to do it. And again he needs pretext
Speaker 3: for everything, So this time the flimsy ass pretext is
Speaker 3: we've got to stop the flow of Fentanel into legal immigrants.
Speaker 3: That's why we're doing this to try and reverse all
Speaker 3: this and also the trade. He's like saying, it's a
Speaker 3: myriad of things, but to go and then up end
Speaker 3: relationships with our immediate neighbors to the north and south.
Speaker 3: Just makes zero financial sense. And you know, you have
Speaker 3: Republicans who privately are like this, I don't understand. I
Speaker 3: think this is gonna fuck us all up. And then
Speaker 3: other people who don't know what the fuck the like
Speaker 3: economics are and they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we got
Speaker 3: to show them. And by them, I mean us our
Speaker 3: own consumers. So we'll see how this plays out. Because
Speaker 3: Trump is addressing a joint session of Congress, some Democrats
Speaker 3: will be there, some won't. I don't know why that
Speaker 3: what the fucking point is, because you're just gonna they're
Speaker 3: gonna make a fucking meal of you if you don't
Speaker 3: stand up and clap when they're like and.
Speaker 5: There are families of Lacan Riley people that were killed
Speaker 5: by immigrants, right, so so terrible, And if they're like
Speaker 5: they're being like, this is some fucking puppetry show circus shit,
Speaker 5: then they'll.
Speaker 3: Be like, well they why don't they care about da
Speaker 3: da dah.
Speaker 1: So some people are completely avoiding attending, but it's going
Speaker 1: to be again, all the people that Trump is bringing
Speaker 1: out for this address are again the families of like
Speaker 1: Lake and Riley, the family of the guy who was
Speaker 1: killed at the Trump rally where the assassination attempt happened.
Speaker 1: And Mark Fogel, the guy that he just freed from Russia.
Speaker 1: And then the Democrats are going to be bringing like
Speaker 1: people who have just been laid off, which I think
Speaker 1: is just as cynical.
Speaker 3: I'm like, what's the point to re traumatize them, to
Speaker 3: be like, and no, they're gonna have to look at
Speaker 3: these people. Don't care y'all are doing this same you're
Speaker 3: using these people as props too, Like, do some real
Speaker 3: shit or don't fucking go and legitimize this nonsense. But anyway,
Speaker 3: we'll see tonight, folks. We will see tonight how that goes.
Speaker 3: Alyssa Slotkin will be giving the rebuttal for Democrats, so
Speaker 3: we will see exciting.
Speaker 2: All right, let's take it back to Main Street.
Speaker 1: We have a we have a report from young producer
Speaker 1: Victor y PV about what the latest dating trend. It's
Speaker 1: called flood lighting miles and it may be coming for
Speaker 1: a romantic partner near you or it's.
Speaker 3: My millennials still out there, you know, on the on
Speaker 3: the lookout for love, know the flood lighting when you
Speaker 3: see this? Apparently I did not know what.
Speaker 2: I don't know what blood light.
Speaker 3: This sounds like being bad at dates, But we're in
Speaker 3: an era where we must give a very succinct sort
Speaker 3: of description or catch off phrase to these kinds of things.
Speaker 3: So in this instance, it's called flood lighting, and.
Speaker 1: You're using vulnerability as a high intensity spotlight. I don't
Speaker 1: really understand the spotlight part of that, but it involves
Speaker 1: sharing a lot of personal details all at once. So
Speaker 1: it's like, instead of love bombing, you are vulnerability bombing
Speaker 1: the person. This is allegedly to test the waters, speed
Speaker 1: up intimacy, or see if the other person can handle
Speaker 1: these parts of you.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this just seems like a bad strategy, but like,
Speaker 1: maybe it works with a certain type of personality.
Speaker 3: Oh so it says. For example, say you meet someone
Speaker 3: from a dating app and grab drinks a few days
Speaker 3: after connecting. On the day, you begin to talk about
Speaker 3: you childhood, sharing details about your parents' divorce and other traumas.
Speaker 3: You then drain on about how this impacts you today, eg.
Speaker 3: Makes you doubt love and loyalty, causes insecurities and dating,
Speaker 3: et cetera. All the while you're closely reading the other
Speaker 3: person's reactions determine whether they can handle you testing their
Speaker 3: boundaries and how much they're willing to accept. This sounds
Speaker 3: predatory and weird, like sure to be like boundaries pesculation tactics.
Speaker 3: I just don't think I get. I think that your
Speaker 3: people are sort of like people just won't accept me
Speaker 3: for me. So maybe if I lead very intensely with
Speaker 3: all of that and put all my cards on the
Speaker 3: table at once, then I can see. But this sort
Speaker 3: of like watching their every reaction to see how they respond.
Speaker 3: That is not how you're going to get to know
Speaker 3: somebody or anything like that. That's like being like you're
Speaker 3: cooking food or some shit, and like before I give
Speaker 3: you the whole meal, I'm gonna have you taste every
Speaker 3: individual ingredient on its own before I've cooked it or
Speaker 3: combined it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, taste this Google like job interview thing where they
Speaker 1: like give you a terrifying, difficult question and see if
Speaker 1: you freak out or not. I will see what this
Speaker 1: motherfucker's made, which is the weird and predatory as like
Speaker 1: a a hiring practice let alone, is like a you know,
Speaker 1: dating practice. Yeah, Hey, if you can't handle me at
Speaker 1: my worst, you're never going to be able to handle
Speaker 1: me at my best, because I'm really like pretty awful
Speaker 1: at my best.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Also like the process of like falling in love with
Speaker 3: some you like them, and then you like them enough
Speaker 3: that as you learn more about them, you can put
Speaker 3: all the pieces together and be like, oh, okay, I
Speaker 3: still like accept and love this person for who they are,
Speaker 3: rather than if I showed up to my data said, yo, bro,
Speaker 3: I might have an issue with cannabis. You know, I
Speaker 3: have parental issues. I'm a perfectionist who will always criticize
Speaker 3: everything you or I do to and then just do I.
Speaker 1: Think a diaper on my back right now because of
Speaker 1: how much I sweat?
Speaker 3: Oh wait, wait, hold on you you have a diaper
Speaker 3: on your back because of how much you sweat.
Speaker 1: Sorry, I was told that this was flood lighting. I'm
Speaker 1: trying to just like be really vulnerable with you. I
Speaker 1: sweat a lot. Now it's actually the diaper is no
Speaker 1: longer sufficient because you stopped me there and now it's
Speaker 1: turning out weird.
Speaker 3: Do you have an extra diaper? Fest or no? How
Speaker 3: many diapers do you have on you right now? Bubble gum?
Speaker 3: Bubble gum in a dish? How many diapers do you
Speaker 3: have on you right now? Let's take a quick break.
Speaker 3: We'll be ready back and we're back. We're back and r.
Speaker 1: FK, what's that guy up to sending some mixed signals
Speaker 1: about uh, straightforward medicine.
Speaker 3: Despite floodlighting us over the many years, letting us know
Speaker 3: what where what his foibles?
Speaker 2: What is he does? He is a big flood lighter.
Speaker 1: He's just like, yeah, perfect, here is a large list
Speaker 1: of pedophiles that I've been associated with with.
Speaker 3: I air humped a dog corpse, you know, a few times.
Speaker 1: The original the o G floodlighter and does seem to
Speaker 1: work bafflingly well for him. So he there's a measles
Speaker 1: outbreak in Texas and terrifying the child just out of
Speaker 1: me for the first time since he said about that.
Speaker 2: You know, people die, children die.
Speaker 1: So he wrote this op ed on Fox's website, and
Speaker 1: in one part of it he said things like vaccines
Speaker 1: not only protect individual children from measles, but also contribute
Speaker 1: to community immunity, protecting those who are unable to be
Speaker 1: vaccinated due to medical reasons, which is kind of a
Speaker 1: big Endorse like, that's the most endorsee he's ever gotten
Speaker 1: around a vaccine. He he does still acknowledge, like, you know,
Speaker 1: some people can't be vaccinated and they seem to be fine,
Speaker 1: But he does say the decision to vaccinate is.
Speaker 2: A personal one.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 1: Yeah. He also elsewhere talks about how vitamins are a
Speaker 1: good way to treat measles.
Speaker 3: But which one, please, so I can buy it? Which
Speaker 3: one do I can I get instead of a vaccine?
Speaker 1: Studies have found that vitamin a can dramatically reduce measles mortality.
Speaker 3: Okay? Does he also tell the part about how you
Speaker 3: can cause like liver damage?
Speaker 2: Noh?
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, so but okay, so based on what I'm
Speaker 3: seeing the dick that you've positioned these two things to say,
Speaker 3: vitamin a is basically like a vaccine though too right, Yeah, buttamin.
Speaker 2: A is fine?
Speaker 1: Like so okay, measles, it's good not to have measles.
Speaker 2: Measles bad if you.
Speaker 1: Want to personally make the personal decision to get vaccinatum
Speaker 1: for some fucking reason because you're weird and sick and
Speaker 1: want Bill Gates fucking chips inside of you. You sick
Speaker 1: freaking If you want to do that, uh huh.
Speaker 2: Great If you're not that type.
Speaker 1: If you don't make that personal choice for your personal
Speaker 1: self maybe your free family.
Speaker 2: Ed you're a freethinker.
Speaker 1: Uh, you know, you're just kind of you do your
Speaker 1: own research because.
Speaker 3: You're Harriet Tubmart the research.
Speaker 2: You're not a sheep. Maybe you're a wolf, you know,
Speaker 2: like people like me.
Speaker 1: Then in that case, uh, it has been showed the
Speaker 1: vitamin A instead of vaccines or you know, if you
Speaker 1: do get measles, don't trip. It's like the Space Program.
Speaker 1: If an asteroid's coming, we gotcha over here at Big
Speaker 1: vitamin A. Unfortunately, according to doctors, specifically doctor Sue Presley,
Speaker 1: the president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, in fact,
Speaker 1: relying on vitamin A instead of the vaccine is not
Speaker 1: only dangerous and ineffective, but.
Speaker 2: It puts children at serious risk.
Speaker 3: Huh huh, but that's not that's not what health Man
Speaker 3: just said.
Speaker 1: He's been on this vitamin a shit since twenty nineteen,
Speaker 1: when he spoke at an event hosted by Texans for
Speaker 1: Vaccine Choice and was speaking about a measles outbreak.
Speaker 2: At that time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and said that while doctors claimed that the outbreak
Speaker 1: was caused by parents refusing to vaccinate their children, he
Speaker 1: said that measles cases fell both before the vaccine was introduced.
Speaker 2: That's what they won't tell you why, because the.
Speaker 1: Thing that cured measles was nutrition and clean water, not
Speaker 1: the vaccine.
Speaker 3: All right, all right, all right, cool cool? Yeah. I
Speaker 3: mean this, this op ed has been like the perfect
Speaker 3: piece of misinformation because depending on what side of the
Speaker 3: political spectrum you're on, you're going to read into it.
Speaker 3: Like some headlines were saying from this op ed, they
Speaker 3: just glombed onto the part where he said the MMR
Speaker 3: vaccine is actually safe or whatever, which goes against everything
Speaker 3: he's been saying for the last fucking forever about the
Speaker 3: MMR vaccine. And then you have the parties like but
Speaker 3: it's a personal choice. So I see headlines that were like, Yo,
Speaker 3: he's all in on vaccines. They're effective, Like you saw
Speaker 3: headlines and then if you read he's like, but they're
Speaker 3: a personal choice, and other ones were being like, yeah,
Speaker 3: he says vite them in a just as good So yeah,
Speaker 3: it was interesting to see how this one op ed
Speaker 3: was somehow covered him seeing the light yeah, and others
Speaker 3: were just like, no, bro, he's just fun.
Speaker 1: Saying both things, and like so you get the heat
Speaker 1: off your back. But you also are signaling to the
Speaker 1: people who you know, actually follow and listen to you
Speaker 1: like you're you know, we've been right all along, don't
Speaker 1: wear I'm saying the vitamin A shit.
Speaker 2: So uh.
Speaker 1: Also in this new world, a Texas official just had
Speaker 1: to call a press conference. This is the chief health
Speaker 1: officer for the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and
Speaker 1: had to urge people not to throw measles parties. Apparently
Speaker 1: they noticed that some people plan to hold measles parties
Speaker 1: on social media.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: And it's like the chicken pox parties from the eighties. Yeah,
Speaker 1: eighties and nineties.
Speaker 3: I'm just singing that because that's when I went to.
Speaker 3: It wasn't even it's fun. I didn't even go to a
Speaker 3: chicken pox part I just got motherfucking chicken pox at
Speaker 3: a birthday party.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well you did think you might not know the
Speaker 1: actual details of that party month. Yeah did you look
Speaker 1: at the Do you have the invitations for that party
Speaker 1: in front of you?
Speaker 3: Yeah, just say, come make sure your kid gets chicken pox,
Speaker 3: but we'll have a party so they don't realize. Chicken
Speaker 3: pox at a Flying Lotus show at twenty six years old.
Speaker 2: All right, so yeah, don't do that.
Speaker 1: But I have a thing that we need to uh say, now,
Speaker 1: in a world where vitamins are where measles is not
Speaker 1: a big concern for the head health guy in the nation,
Speaker 1: and it could be treated with vitamin A.
Speaker 2: Is vitamin A the sun one. There's that vitamin D.
Speaker 1: That's the all right, there's a great New York magazine
Speaker 1: article that I wanted to shout out real quick. That
Speaker 1: is the most sycophantic things Republicans have done so far
Speaker 1: in this Like this is not overall. This is just
Speaker 1: since he's been in the second.
Speaker 3: Time for the last three weeks.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've On February fourteen, they introduced a bill to
Speaker 1: make Donald Trump's birthday a federal holiday, saying his impact
Speaker 1: on the nation is undeniable. Just as George Washington's birthday
Speaker 1: is codified as a federal holiday. This bill will add
Speaker 1: Trump's birthday to this list, recognizing him as the founder
Speaker 1: of Americans Golden Age right before the economy fell off
Speaker 1: a fucking cliff. A bill to put Trump on Mount Rushmore.
Speaker 1: That's that's for real. Abible to change the name of
Speaker 1: Greenland to Red, White and Blueland. A resolution to allow
Speaker 1: Trump to serve a third term. I mean that shit's
Speaker 1: just going to happen. A pair of bills to put
Speaker 1: Trump on the one hundred dollars bill, and then a
Speaker 1: US attorney that calls himself Trump's lawyer is another one.
Speaker 1: President Trump's lawyer is what he calls himself, Ed Martin.
Speaker 3: Oh right, right, who's You're like, you're fucking working for
Speaker 3: the Department of Justice. That's cool, I'm Trump's. The other thing, though, too,
Speaker 3: is recently they're talking about renaming Dulles Airport after Trump too.
Speaker 2: After that's it's another one. Just such a wild on
Speaker 2: rush of bullshit.
Speaker 3: This is just typical dear leader shit, you know what
Speaker 3: I mean? This is Yeah, this is no different than
Speaker 3: any other country where they're like people have to fawn
Speaker 3: over the figurehead to curry favor and be.
Speaker 2: Like, yes, my lord please, I want to put you on.
Speaker 3: A bill that doesn't need to fucking exist. A two
Speaker 3: hundred and fifty dollars bill for who So you go
Speaker 3: buy a dozen eggs?
Speaker 2: Is that what it is? A two hundred and fifty
Speaker 2: dollars Yeah, there's.
Speaker 3: Two hundred fifty dollars bill they're talking about that's amazing.
Speaker 3: One of them has the mugshot as the fucking face
Speaker 3: like all these Bill mock ups. It's absolutely bullshet bullsheet night.
Speaker 1: And finally, we do have an update because we had
Speaker 1: mentioned that we were a little suspicious of the number
Speaker 1: that kept getting quoted during the break number.
Speaker 3: Wait, was that something Conan said or who was saying it?
Speaker 1: He was saying that a billion people watched, But it
Speaker 1: wasn't like a joke that it' psych Not a billion
Speaker 1: people are watching it, and people covered it as being
Speaker 1: serious in the mainstream media.
Speaker 3: So that's a Harvard Lampoon humor, dude.
Speaker 1: Right, so very sophisticated, very dry, that dry rang Poon humor.
Speaker 1: This is a thing that people have been saying for
Speaker 1: a long time. The ratings came back. The Oscars drew
Speaker 1: eighteen million viewers across ABC and Hulu, which is seven
Speaker 1: percent down from last year.
Speaker 2: That's about what I would have guessed based.
Speaker 1: On the movies that were nominated, like last year was
Speaker 1: an all time or a high like since before the pandemic,
Speaker 1: because the two movies that were most likely to win
Speaker 1: Best Picture were movies that a lot of people saw
Speaker 1: in Oppenheimer and Barbie, and this year was like, you know,
Speaker 1: small arty movies, but yeah, so down down seven percent
Speaker 1: from last year. People are just like, what the fuck
Speaker 1: what happened Cone? I guess people don't like Cone or something.
Speaker 1: It was like, no, the movies are just not big.
Speaker 1: It was not a year where like there were a
Speaker 1: lot of high performing movies that made Sense's Best Picture nominees.
Speaker 3: And we're just not that into celebrity worship as we
Speaker 3: used to be. That's really the thing. We just don't
Speaker 3: We're not as interested in celebrating these people and being like,
Speaker 3: whoa what are they wearing?
Speaker 1: Like for yourself, Miles, I have that selfie that Ellen
Speaker 1: DeGeneres took tattooed on my back.
Speaker 2: That's what that is. Yeah, man, it's a little blurry.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I would say it looks really infected.
Speaker 2: Dude.
Speaker 1: It's so I started it as a watercolor of that
Speaker 1: and then you know, showed that to the person and
Speaker 1: then kept updating it as they were doing the tattoo.
Speaker 2: And it just has not It's not gone great, it's
Speaker 2: not gone badly, but yeah, they are having to take
Speaker 2: chunks in my back out.
Speaker 3: God, is it too late to make it Nixon's face.
Speaker 2: Is that what you think? It looks like? Maybe I
Speaker 2: could I feel like Swartz things around.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can be like Roger Stone, but yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know, like Deadline blamed Hulu. Uh, I just think, yeah,
Speaker 1: but fewer people fewer and fewer people watch anything on
Speaker 1: TV anymore, like feer and fewer people are into celebrity
Speaker 1: worship these days. But our writer JM did look into
Speaker 1: where the billion people all over the world claim came from,
Speaker 1: and uh, it's from a nineteen eighty five Associated Press
Speaker 1: story which contained the billion viewer claim without any attribution.
Speaker 1: And that's where it just still gets excited, like it's.
Speaker 4: Just the free internet lies from the eighties, pre internet
Speaker 4: lie that is like convenient for the purposes of attracting advertisers,
Speaker 4: you know, and there and therefore you just.
Speaker 3: Got that is so funny, dude, This is some This
Speaker 3: is a This is sales speak from someone in a
Speaker 3: sale in this in a sales position at ABC clearly
Speaker 3: being like, yeah, we get a billion viewers. Man, your
Speaker 3: product in front of a billions, They're going to be
Speaker 3: wild to get you to get this thing.
