Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this week trend edition
Speaker 1: of Production of My Heart.
Speaker 2: I was holding my breath because I got the hickeys.
Speaker 1: And you've been holding your breath since the last time
Speaker 1: we recorded.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so did Thank god, I was starting blue. Oh
Speaker 3: my god, dude, you're right, You're right. It is hard
Speaker 3: to hold your breath the whole weekend. Now, man, the
Speaker 3: fucking hiccups. So I'm trying to stretch my diaphragm out.
Speaker 3: I get them every now and then, but you know,
Speaker 3: I'm just I'm dealing with it.
Speaker 2: How you stretch your diaphragm.
Speaker 3: My friend who I gotta stretch my diaphragm and she
Speaker 3: kind of just put her hands over her head and
Speaker 3: just kind of take a deep breath.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Okay, it's hoping.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because look their diaphragm fragmal spasm or whatever, diapragms,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Well, so I'm Jack mile these.
Speaker 1: This is the episode where we tell you some of
Speaker 1: the things that trended over the weekend, some of the
Speaker 1: things that are trending on this Monday morning. First, we
Speaker 1: get to know ourselves a little bit better by telling
Speaker 1: each other something we think is underrated?
Speaker 2: Overrated? You want to kick off? You want me to
Speaker 2: kickick off? What underrated? What's something you think is? Who
Speaker 2: did I say? Last time? Did I say? Was Vinnie
Speaker 2: del Negro a kicker?
Speaker 1: No, Vinnie del Negro was a a basketball player and
Speaker 1: coach of the last.
Speaker 3: Time I was Vinitary, I'm nick Folk. Now I'm nick full.
Speaker 1: Nick kicking it. I did a kickoff. He's holding his
Speaker 1: finger up in the air. Everybody's waiting his soccer career.
Speaker 3: But like a lot of football kickers, you end up
Speaker 3: being like, you know what, they liked it. I kicked
Speaker 3: this ship out of this weird ball, so I'll do that.
Speaker 3: Went to my high school? Actually was it really was.
Speaker 1: I feel like kick is one of those professional sports
Speaker 1: jobs that you can do high.
Speaker 3: You know, no fucking way you cannot do that high
Speaker 3: like you have to. I'm like, you almost have to
Speaker 3: be hiding, don't know.
Speaker 2: I just kicked the ball.
Speaker 3: I might get fucking ripped if the fucking play comes
Speaker 3: my way.
Speaker 1: Where the stoner professional athletes go there, Yeah, this is
Speaker 1: one that I can just kind of show up pretty hungover,
Speaker 1: maybe still a little bit drunk, and get the job done.
Speaker 2: Who am I thinking of?
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm like, am I like doing like Testa Verdi
Speaker 3: and I'm trying to be Negro and teary phone didn't
Speaker 3: Was he still someone to do with the Spurs?
Speaker 2: Did he Negro? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Negro was with the Spurs. Ye, appropriately of black.
Speaker 3: I had a wild I had a yeah, right, I
Speaker 3: had a wild weekend. And that's why my underrated is
Speaker 3: Show and Tell. Not because I even have a you know,
Speaker 3: the guys child is not close to doing shows or
Speaker 3: tells quite yet.
Speaker 2: Sure he's you know, it's cruising.
Speaker 3: Uh, but I was just thinking about I was like,
Speaker 3: just how how that ship sticks with you? Like I
Speaker 3: was talking with people just about like someone someone's kid
Speaker 3: having to do Show and Tell, and all these fucking
Speaker 3: memories flashback, Like I honestly think i'd be like my
Speaker 3: first bout of class consciousness came through Show and Tell,
Speaker 3: where like, oh, for sure you bring a toy or whatever.
Speaker 3: I brought like a Japanese like ant like manga book.
Speaker 3: I remember one of the first times, and I was
Speaker 3: fucking ridiculed because that's weird. Yeah, They're like it's got
Speaker 3: scribbles for words, and I'm like you, this is a
Speaker 3: this is dragon Ball, you fucking losers. You're gonna be
Speaker 3: fucking begging me to hang out with you in ten
Speaker 3: years anyway. So I just remember, like then seeing kids
Speaker 3: come out with like the wildest fucking toys, like the
Speaker 3: ship that like you would go to the toy store
Speaker 3: and be like can I get that?
Speaker 2: And your parents like absolutely fucking kidding, what the fuck
Speaker 2: do you think this is?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: They drive in on their show and tell, oh, yeah.
Speaker 3: Like I remember, no, fucking like some kid had the
Speaker 3: Fao Schwartz Mercedes fucking you know, power Wheels brought that
Speaker 3: ship to school, and I remember being so fucked up
Speaker 3: about it. But anyway, I still think about how like
Speaker 3: those impulses, like I feel like there's still power, like
Speaker 3: what today is our modern like flex culture on Instagram
Speaker 3: because we've lost the school room setting to be like
Speaker 3: and this is what I have and this is why
Speaker 3: I'm a different kind of thing.
Speaker 2: And now it's like I gotta.
Speaker 3: Post it on Instagram because I gotta do my own
Speaker 3: show and tell this is my new show, and tell
Speaker 3: that I do. And I just it's it's a powerful force.
Speaker 3: And I was like reading, I was trying to see
Speaker 3: like what like where did where did we? Where did
Speaker 3: we come up.
Speaker 2: With this ship?
Speaker 3: There's really there's no This is why I think it's
Speaker 3: an alien technology because we can't quite find the origin
Speaker 3: of Show and Tell. But it's mostly like an English
Speaker 3: speaking like UK, North America, New Zealand, Australia kind of thing.
Speaker 3: And it was like meant to just sort of be
Speaker 3: able to like bridge the ability of like talking about
Speaker 3: home stuff in school stuff and like being able to
Speaker 3: have like poise or whatever.
Speaker 1: Share something all about yourself.
Speaker 3: But it's like I feel like the new version the
Speaker 3: teachers are probably up on this and like we don't
Speaker 3: do toys.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't do toys anymore. Yeah, yeah, that's what
Speaker 1: I figured. I think there's some days where you're like
Speaker 1: allowed to bring a stuffy from home that we like
Speaker 1: really fucked with diamond, Yeah, And I think that I
Speaker 1: think the real kind of mind fuck of that is
Speaker 1: like kids realizing that like other people have the same
Speaker 1: stuff with them.
Speaker 3: Oh I know, right, like the stuff that you're cheating
Speaker 3: on them. Yeah yeah, exactly, you too with this.
Speaker 1: That's brown Bunny Why wait, like it's even Krusty likes
Speaker 1: I saw him.
Speaker 2: Bb No, Yeah, you fuck that's brown bunny. Oh man.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So anyway, it's a I just think it's it's
Speaker 3: a force from that we take from childhood into our.
Speaker 1: I don't remember that much from from my kindergarten. I
Speaker 1: don't know if my kindergart and skipped it or if
Speaker 1: I was just oblivious. I was like a real spacey kid.
Speaker 1: I remember like it. I was like we were worried,
Speaker 1: that's right. But I heard like one of my uncles
Speaker 1: being like, we were worried about you there for a while. Man,
Speaker 1: just like head like head in the clouds of head
Speaker 1: in the clouds off doing my own thing, like in
Speaker 1: a movie nobody else is aware of.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well you're very cerebral. You're a thinker.
Speaker 3: So that makes sense that as a child, it translates
Speaker 3: to like is that boy all right?
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, all right, my underrated I'm so it's professional sports,
Speaker 1: but sports sporto's or like non non sports fans like this.
Speaker 1: This is just something that I'm like kind of viewing
Speaker 1: professional sports again as an outsider because of like we
Speaker 1: so you remember on Mad Boost He's our NBA podcast.
Speaker 2: When I saw him, like he's back on this chart.
Speaker 2: He's back on this chart.
Speaker 1: I found there's a great page of web it's a
Speaker 1: radio media markets chart that lists the size of media markets.
Speaker 1: So this is something that's come up before because like
Speaker 1: I was, I was marveling at the fact that Jacksonville
Speaker 1: is the biggest city in Florida. That like fucked me up.
Speaker 1: I was like, there's wow, that doesn't make sense, like
Speaker 1: Miami is so much more well known. And the reason
Speaker 1: is just technical, like a technicality, like cities, you know,
Speaker 1: have their technical size, and like Miami is you know,
Speaker 1: a handful of different counties spread right, So media market
Speaker 1: actually tells you how big like a city actually is
Speaker 1: because that's like how many people live around there and
Speaker 1: identify around that and can be you know sold to
Speaker 1: I guess right, but ye know, ever, I real like
Speaker 1: three paragraphs now, actually more than that about this ship.
Speaker 1: So it's the sizes of markets in the United States.
Speaker 1: So you're basically finding out like how many people actually
Speaker 1: live around these geographical clusters. And the reason was because
Speaker 1: like there was a player from Denver who was like,
Speaker 1: you know, I wish I was in one of the
Speaker 1: big markets and was more you know, more people would
Speaker 1: give us our respect, like you know, Lebron in La
Speaker 1: or Yannice in Milwaukee, and I was like Milwaukee, Milwaukee
Speaker 1: was not a big market. Looked it up. It is
Speaker 1: a much smaller market than Denver. But anyway, Also, I've
Speaker 1: never spelled Milwaukee correctly without.
Speaker 3: The I love that you spelled it two different ways
Speaker 3: within three words.
Speaker 1: So difficult, it's I don't Oh yeah the U came
Speaker 1: before today.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just picked it.
Speaker 1: But anyways, the other thing that this chart made me
Speaker 1: really is that there are these like it's a list
Speaker 1: of you know, New York, La Uh, Chicago, right, all
Speaker 1: these cities I know, and then there are these little
Speaker 1: pockets in the top fifty that I really don't have
Speaker 1: any context for, And it's all based on whether they
Speaker 1: have a professional sports team sport that I pay attention to,
Speaker 1: Like San Jose, California. If you didn't watch Big Little Lies,
Speaker 1: you don't know shit about it. But it is a
Speaker 1: larger city than like Salt Lake City and Milwaukee. But
Speaker 1: I've spent time in Salt Lake City and Milwaukee just
Speaker 1: in like professional sporting event b roll you know right, right,
Speaker 1: I've seen like city.
Speaker 2: You can see the mountain from the venue. Yeah, it
Speaker 2: seems like yeah, like a big little in Monterey, not
Speaker 2: San Jose.
Speaker 1: It's not all right, I no see win exactly.
Speaker 3: For a second, I was like San Jose is not
Speaker 3: that glamorous, but yeah yeah, yeahs a lot of tech
Speaker 3: people there.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Middlesex, New Jersey, Riverside, California. Like you don't know Riverside, dude,
Speaker 1: I mean I'm aware of Riverside.
Speaker 2: Didn't I tell you about those T shirts they used
Speaker 2: to rock back in the day.
Speaker 3: It would say homicide, genocide, suicide Riverside.
Speaker 2: Wow. Yeah, and that was like made by Riverside.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was like some I remember seeing like some
Speaker 3: hardcore like Riverside people rock and shit like that.
Speaker 2: It wasn't like a huston I remember, like all right, Riverside. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But like Middlesex, New Jersey and Riverside are bigger markets
Speaker 1: than Cincinnati and Kansas City, right, Like I know things
Speaker 1: about Cincinnati and Kansas City's cuisine, Like I know what
Speaker 1: they look like from because sports, right, yeah, just because
Speaker 1: of sports. Like Indianapolis is smaller than Norfolk, Virginia. Oh,
Speaker 1: Buffalo is crazy small, but Buffalo is smaller than like Monmouth.
Speaker 2: New Jersey.
Speaker 1: But yeah, truly, like I don't know so it's just interesting,
Speaker 1: like now I understand what like it just like puts
Speaker 1: like some of the pride and you know, just reason
Speaker 1: for existing of professional sports into context a little bit.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying these are like accurate snapshots just because
Speaker 1: I've seen like people throwing fish around the fish market
Speaker 1: in Seattle, doesn't mean I know Seattle, but at least
Speaker 1: like it's in my mind, it's like on on the map,
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 3: Right, because in my mind it's drawing attention because I mean,
Speaker 3: like you to your point, like, I don't know what
Speaker 3: the reason there would be national attention on Middlesex unless
Speaker 3: there's like a gigantic convention like if like the if
Speaker 3: the DNC type thing was happening there maybe something like
Speaker 3: that or sports.
Speaker 2: But otherwise, yeah, there's and.
Speaker 1: It never would because there's not venues big enough because
Speaker 1: no professional sports.
Speaker 3: Right, it's just this, Oh my god, it's a snaky
Speaker 3: in its own tale. Yeah, so what what are we
Speaker 3: saying if we're going by like market size, Seattle is
Speaker 3: still the one that needs more.
Speaker 2: Well, actually know, they just don't have a basketball team.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they just don't have a better the tragedy there, Yeah,
Speaker 1: the biggest market that I don't like Nasau, New York,
Speaker 1: which is basically Long Island, right, is like bigger than
Speaker 1: Baltimore or Saint Louis, Tampa, Denver, Pittsburgh, Portland, So they
Speaker 1: have the Islanders. I think in NHL, I think that's right,
Speaker 1: But I don't really fuck with hockey, so I don't
Speaker 1: know like what their culture is. I just know, like
Speaker 1: I know some people from Long Island, but I feel
Speaker 1: like I know Long Island less than I know Oklahoma
Speaker 1: City or like San Antonio, yacause I feel like San
Speaker 1: Antonio has hosted the NBA Finals so often, right.
Speaker 2: Or like I know Staaten Island better because of Wu Tang.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I one three four, Like I got the
Speaker 3: fucking zip code right here, man, like truly put you
Speaker 3: on the map.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: But I guess, like with New York, like those kinds
Speaker 3: of things too, like New York is just seen as
Speaker 3: just a region, right. There might be New York City,
Speaker 3: but everyone from the area like just sort of is like, yeah,
Speaker 3: that's our team.
Speaker 2: So I guess it's kind of like the collective identity too.
Speaker 1: But yeah, a Long Island I think fucks with like
Speaker 1: the Mets and the Jets, if I'm not, or maybe
Speaker 1: it's the Giants.
Speaker 3: What do you met Jets Islanders or Yankees, Rangers Giants
Speaker 3: kind of thing, right, Yeah, anyway, tell us, hey, Long Islanders,
Speaker 3: please help us.
Speaker 2: We're help me, help me understand please.
Speaker 1: I didn't realize how big Dallas was either. I thought
Speaker 1: Dallas was like kind of a small side I remember
Speaker 1: both like bigger than Houston, Bigger than Houston. I think
Speaker 1: the fifth biggest it goes New York, LA, Chicago, San
Speaker 1: Francisco is four, which I didn't realize it was that big,
Speaker 1: and then Dallas right after it.
Speaker 2: It's crazy. I guess again that might be like a
Speaker 2: hip hop bias for me. I'm but all the rap
Speaker 2: there's so many rappers from Houston.
Speaker 1: Yeah, who are all these Dallas people?
Speaker 2: You know? Just like boys? Yeah? All right, myles, what
Speaker 2: is something you think is overrated?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 2: Some of the thing is overrated? Now, how do I? Oh?
Speaker 2: I guess technically Vanilla Ice is a Dallas rapper. Overrated? Cool?
Speaker 2: There you go, Dallas, there you go.
Speaker 3: Just yeah, overrated is as I think thinking, just trying
Speaker 3: to embrace trends and doing it at the expense of
Speaker 3: acknowledging where you are experientially in life, not even an age.
Speaker 3: But I say this because as I approach forty, myself
Speaker 3: and other millennials I talked to in the sort of
Speaker 3: same age Cohort are like stuck in this space where
Speaker 3: like we acknowledge.
Speaker 2: We're like, yo, bro, we're washed. Like we're washed, bro,
Speaker 2: Like I don't know, I don't know half these motherfuckers
Speaker 2: that are coming out.
Speaker 3: I can barely keep up with new music, but like
Speaker 3: I do my best, and also like I don't know,
Speaker 3: like I'm like the shit kids are wearing.
Speaker 2: I'm like that shit looks dumb to me, so like
Speaker 2: I've a.
Speaker 3: But at the same time, it's like, but I'm not
Speaker 3: uncool though, you know what I mean, Like I still
Speaker 3: know what's up.
Speaker 2: It's like we're trying to have it both ways.
Speaker 3: It's like, look, were either washed and we're like fine
Speaker 3: with it and not even washed, like in a pejorative
Speaker 3: sense like that, we're just the like sort of that
Speaker 3: mainstream youth culture is for the youth them, you know,
Speaker 3: and we are now the forties them.
Speaker 1: And that's why I set out of the league. We
Speaker 1: watched out the big league. We're in the now, like
Speaker 1: the catcher in Major League.
Speaker 3: I'm like a veteran to just like, you know, just
Speaker 3: to encourage on like the next generation of stars to
Speaker 3: be like, hey, I was there too. Man was called
Speaker 3: the Ox Baby and we were doing it big. But hey,
Speaker 3: now it's your turn. That was twenty years ago. But anyway,
Speaker 3: so like, we don't like to feel like we're fucking
Speaker 3: off trend or whatever the fuck you want to you know,
Speaker 3: however you want to phrase that. But I notice this
Speaker 3: specifically every time I go out wearing my phone.
Speaker 2: I wear my phone on a next strap. Now.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because when I was in Japan, like the last
Speaker 3: time in December, a lot of people were wearing.
Speaker 2: I'm like, that kind of has like a swat to it,
Speaker 2: even though like in my mind, you're ahead of the
Speaker 2: curve on this well to me.
Speaker 3: But here's the thing, right, people pull up, Like when
Speaker 3: I wear it now in LA they're like, whoa, all right, dad, life,
Speaker 3: you got your phone on the next strap? Okay, like
Speaker 3: you're doing you're doing it functional. And then others are like,
Speaker 3: you know, that seems like pretty functional to like what
Speaker 3: my needs are. But also like I don't want to
Speaker 3: I don't want people yelling hashtag dad life at me,
Speaker 3: so I'm gonna.
Speaker 2: Pass, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: And at first I saw the next strap as some
Speaker 3: like some high school nark shit or you know, catch
Speaker 3: me wearing no fucking next strap on my phone, and
Speaker 3: I realized it's one of the best things I've done,
Speaker 3: Like in terms of my cell phone purchases, after buying
Speaker 3: a case for it is like this next strap, I
Speaker 3: won't lose it because it's on a bright orange leash. Basically,
Speaker 3: I can access it whenever I need, Like I can cook,
Speaker 3: I can hold the kid, I can I can sumone
Speaker 3: a recipe and then just fling it back down. Because
Speaker 3: it's on a strap, I can free my pockets because
Speaker 3: as you know, we're a plumper gang here. And I
Speaker 3: don't need people knowing the exact mode of my cell
Speaker 3: phone based because they can tell from the outline in
Speaker 3: my pocket.
Speaker 2: So it's nice to have it out of there.
Speaker 3: And I was at a birthday party this weekend and
Speaker 3: a couple came up to her Majesty and I and
Speaker 3: they were like, hey, so I just want to thank
Speaker 3: you for your bravery, like with wearing the next strap
Speaker 3: in public, Like we also decided just now as a
Speaker 3: couple that this is like the mood for us, and
Speaker 3: and like we just were like glad we saw like
Speaker 3: other people our age like using it, and I like,
Speaker 3: we feel really great about it. And I was like,
Speaker 3: how come you weren't like embracing it sooner? They're like, well,
Speaker 3: it looks like some high school narc shit, and you know,
Speaker 3: we just weren't quite there. So anyway, sometimes function can
Speaker 3: be the wave, you know what I mean, And I
Speaker 3: think I don't like, I don't even regret it. I'm
Speaker 3: just like, yeah, man, this is like this fucking works,
Speaker 3: like that's why I like it. I don't think like
Speaker 3: I'm much like, oh, this is my fucking drip, because
Speaker 3: that's where you have to sort of reconcile what those
Speaker 3: values are.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 3: And for me, it's the function and guess what, and
Speaker 3: sometimes being functional turns out can bring you admirers from
Speaker 3: from all across the age spectrum.
Speaker 1: I'm just waiting for it to become like a little
Speaker 1: bit more popular so it doesn't look like I'm copying
Speaker 1: you so much. You know, like I need to see
Speaker 1: like a few more people and then you will.
Speaker 3: I'm telling you people are Every time I was like,
Speaker 3: I'm wearing my Humble bag.
Speaker 1: By the way, Miles, this feels like you being like,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not chasing trends. I'm kind of chasing
Speaker 1: sometimes you do. Sometimes you travel to Japan. Sometimes travel
Speaker 1: to Japan and see the wave before it hits. See
Speaker 1: how the United States I was.
Speaker 3: I was pushing away my own people, my own culture,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: And I had to just I had to dive in.
Speaker 2: I had to dive in.
Speaker 3: But I think, no, but it's but truly it's a
Speaker 3: story about how, like you know, how the cool people
Speaker 3: will always be cool I think, is what I mean
Speaker 3: to say.
Speaker 1: Yeah, really, at that time, people will always be cool.
Speaker 1: So stop trying. Stop trying by yelling dad life at
Speaker 1: people who you think are on some dad shit and
Speaker 1: are actually on some jack ship.
Speaker 3: This ain't no dad shit, bros. Some Japanese trend wave
Speaker 3: our mom fucker now back up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're just embarrassing yourself. Also, I will report from
Speaker 1: the functional perspective. My wife, uh got one of these
Speaker 1: a while back. Also, she's getting ahead of the curve
Speaker 1: on this ship.
Speaker 2: And uh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm having to do the find my iPhone app
Speaker 1: like maybe three times a day instead of like seven.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's pretty Yeah, that's huge. Three because you
Speaker 2: have an extrap.
Speaker 1: No, No, because she has an extrap and so I
Speaker 1: don't have to find her phone for her like.
Speaker 2: Her seven times a day. Yeah, I got it.
Speaker 1: I thought you exactly. All right, my overrated let's stay
Speaker 1: on the phone thing picking up. Do you have the
Speaker 1: thing where like you can now see when someone is
Speaker 1: leaving a voicemail for right, and you can like pick
Speaker 1: it up in the middle of the voicemail.
Speaker 2: Yeahs like now voicemail.
Speaker 3: No, I haven't done that, but I haven't done that
Speaker 3: ship since like I was using a landline in like
Speaker 3: ninety eight.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is like you can now jump in
Speaker 1: when someone is leaving a message and interrupt, interrupt them
Speaker 1: and basically be like, oh, hey, I'm actually here. And
Speaker 1: it's it's like waking a sleepwalker while they're asleep. Like
Speaker 1: it's it's there's just like something humiliating about it, Like
Speaker 1: they go from like you know, autopilot to like, oh ship,
Speaker 1: there's so yeah, it's just hey, and it's like confusing
Speaker 1: because not everybody knows about this ability. So I've just
Speaker 1: made a vow to myself I'm not doing that ship
Speaker 1: don't don't pick up happened to you? Was No, I
Speaker 1: did it to a couple people, and they just their
Speaker 1: kind of confusion really like fuck's the whole conversation. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Like well I was gonna say, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: It's like you caught someone like stealing or something. We're
Speaker 3: going to put it back the thing. You're like, what,
Speaker 3: like it's I wasn't expecting to speak to a human
Speaker 3: right now.
Speaker 2: So this kind of fucked Yeah.
Speaker 3: I remember doing that, like when we had those little
Speaker 3: tape answering machines back in my day. Yeah, with the
Speaker 3: little MicroTape I know, and then you'd be like, yo,
Speaker 3: hold on, I got to hang up there else everything's
Speaker 3: gonna be on wax, like when we come right back,
Speaker 3: or like you have to run over and stop.
Speaker 2: The fucking answering machine to be like, do not reward
Speaker 2: this weird shit I'm about to talk about. Yep, yep, yep.
Speaker 2: I won't do it. I won't do it.
Speaker 1: It's like the opposite of like the answering machine message
Speaker 1: that like tricks people into thinking you're there. This is
Speaker 1: like real pickup mid answering machine. Yeah, it's fucked up.
Speaker 1: So you're breaking the sacred bond of you know, phone etiquette.
Speaker 2: I feel like because.
Speaker 3: It's a social finish line, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: It's like once I've crossed I've look I did. I
Speaker 3: was doing the thing where I was willing to talk
Speaker 3: to you during the rings. Yes, but now that we're there,
Speaker 3: now that we've crossed the rubicon into voicemail.
Speaker 1: I'm happy to not be talking to you. Yeah, just
Speaker 1: like there is a relief when somebody's voicemail picks up.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I know, not many people like actually call each other anymore,
Speaker 1: but I'm trying to do more phone calls, actually talk
Speaker 1: to people. I think I think there's some some benefit
Speaker 1: to that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to, you got to. Oh, I'm all profone,
Speaker 2: you got to.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break and come back
Speaker 1: and talk about some news.
Speaker 2: And we're back.
Speaker 1: We're back, and I mean I'm seeing I'm seeing some
Speaker 1: good press for Mike Johnson for the first time.
Speaker 3: Hey, Mike, Yeah, Mike, old Jesus jerk off eyes actually
Speaker 3: got something passed in the House. Yeah, after weeks of delays,
Speaker 3: the House actually passed something. And is it help for
Speaker 3: American people? Unfortunately, it's been millions of dollars of aid
Speaker 3: for everyone except Americans. But we could carry less about
Speaker 3: the country struggling.
Speaker 2: But hey, the.
Speaker 3: Status quo and a status quo, and Mike Johnson did
Speaker 3: his thing. And despite all the Republicans that have turned
Speaker 3: into Russian propagandists like Marjorie Taylor Green, those freaks were
Speaker 3: unable to fully cut off the money hose for Ukraine
Speaker 3: because they will be receiving around sixty billion dollars.
Speaker 2: Wow, in what I'm pretty sure is lethal aid.
Speaker 3: Indo Pacific allies, read people that we're hoping will fight
Speaker 3: China if we need them to when called upon, are
Speaker 3: getting eight billion dollars and Israel gets twenty six billion dollars,
Speaker 3: although nine billion of the twenty six billion is going
Speaker 3: to humanitarian aid in Gaza, which is just such a
Speaker 3: weird like notion where it's like, if you're gonna be
Speaker 3: providing lethal aid to Israel, like the nine billion just
Speaker 3: feels like a fucking weird number. That's like art, like
Speaker 3: you could say, like you're just saying it out loud
Speaker 3: to be like, and there's aid for them too, but
Speaker 3: also more lethal munitions for the people to to then
Speaker 3: attack them. And I feel like you know, you could
Speaker 3: just do the thing. All Palestinians and most of the
Speaker 3: civilized world are clamoring for an immediate ceasefire. But hey,
Speaker 3: just look, we got it.
Speaker 2: We got it. We got to feed the machine.
Speaker 3: And it's again like to you're to send money, just
Speaker 3: gotta send money man, And just said, we didn't.
Speaker 2: Discriminate money hose. Discriminate money hose.
Speaker 3: Just not for social services, just not for things like
Speaker 3: Medicare for all. There's nothing like real, you know, making
Speaker 3: college affordable for people, maybe childcare service whatever.
Speaker 2: I don't know what the fun I'm talking about. I
Speaker 2: don't know the money hose.
Speaker 3: And they'll figure it out, you know exactly. It's like
Speaker 3: that scene in What is UHF? But it's like you
Speaker 3: ready to drink from the fire hose. Yeah, just blow
Speaker 3: your head off with money. But yeah, to your point
Speaker 3: about like the you know, the tides turning for Mike Johnson,
Speaker 3: there's like there's this op ed in the Washington Post.
Speaker 3: I was like, you know, we got we actually got
Speaker 3: to commend Mike Johnson.
Speaker 2: Got to give him a chance. He's a fucking hero man.
Speaker 2: He really showed spine.
Speaker 3: You're like, what I mean, I get that the GOP
Speaker 3: is now just like three hundred racists and like a
Speaker 3: Russian propagandist in a trench coat, but like doing the
Speaker 3: normal thing, which is just throwing money away into the
Speaker 3: military industrial complex.
Speaker 2: Fire Like, isn't really a crouse for celebration, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's still the same fucking guy who decided to
Speaker 3: go through with a bullshit impeachment of Alejandro majorcis like
Speaker 3: drummed up all this xenophobia about the border, only to
Speaker 3: then just be like, actually, no border deal because this
Speaker 3: is all just rhetorical fuckery that I was engaged in. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he's an election denier, but sure, let's let's really Yeah
Speaker 3: he showed such spine when he denied the results of
Speaker 3: the election, but yeah he did a thing John Bahner
Speaker 3: would have done, so I guess he is redeemed, right,
Speaker 3: So ye, turn off, turn off your Covenant eyes tonight, Mike.
Speaker 2: And just this one's on us of course.
Speaker 1: The app that he uses to try and stop himself
Speaker 1: from jacking off, like saying his son too, yeah, sends
Speaker 1: his search history to his son and his son's search
Speaker 1: history like it was specifically highlighting any untoward online activity.
Speaker 1: They get reports on one another. That is an actual app.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but yas, like you just keep looking at the
Speaker 3: Murk Medical Manual online.
Speaker 2: What's in there? Just cool body parts I just want
Speaker 2: to learn about.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's such a low barrier that we're now
Speaker 1: applauding them for doing the horrifying thing that they've been
Speaker 1: doing for years.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's also like an opportunity Hakim Jefferies can
Speaker 3: be like, well, the Democrats had also come in and
Speaker 3: save the day, and like so everybody gets to kind
Speaker 3: of like pat themselves on the back for just again
Speaker 3: the status quo, which again is just from what I'm reading,
Speaker 3: mostly death dollars being handled out.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah with President Zelenski also thanked Mike Johnson,
Speaker 3: so he's got that he can he can hang on to.
Speaker 1: There you go, Yeah, put that, Yeah, put that on
Speaker 1: a shelf and try not to jack off to it. Uh,
Speaker 1: try put that on your little shelf.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: There's this article in The New Yorker that I found
Speaker 1: kind of interesting clarifying the spine of it is about
Speaker 1: that guy, Remember the guy who shot himself into the
Speaker 1: sky in a rocket to try and prove the Earth
Speaker 1: was flat and died in the process.
Speaker 2: Yeah, his fucking homebrew rocket.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So the thesis of this article is basically that, you
Speaker 1: know what, when I hear about like QAnon, I'm imagining
Speaker 1: like a future war like the Chinese Civil War that
Speaker 1: killed twenty million people because they believed this cult leader
Speaker 1: was Jesus's son. Like I the things they say they
Speaker 1: believe are so bizarre that I'm there's kind of this
Speaker 1: tension in my mind about like how come they're not
Speaker 1: like constantly we're not constantly seeing like people run into
Speaker 1: you know, like do wild shit with you know, they're
Speaker 1: they're all super well armed, and they apparently believe that
Speaker 1: everyone is part of like this satanic cabal.
Speaker 2: And yeah, I mean.
Speaker 3: It pops up every now and then, like the one
Speaker 3: guy who like shot his neighbor because he thought he
Speaker 3: was a Democrat, right and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's definitely not for the most part, Like
Speaker 1: the numbers aren't where you might expect them to be, right.
Speaker 1: And this article is basically saying that when you look
Speaker 1: at the research on disinformation and like the like false beliefs,
Speaker 1: like the transparently false beliefs, like people kind of believe
Speaker 1: it in the way that like Catholics believe the bread
Speaker 1: is the body of Christ, but like don't actually expect
Speaker 1: like blood to start running down their mouth where they like,
Speaker 1: you know, it's not his body, right, yeah, yeah, but
Speaker 1: they like believe it. It's not like they you know,
Speaker 1: like they've done so they've done all these experiments with
Speaker 1: like Democrats and Republicans, where like Republicans, like they'll ask
Speaker 1: them to estimate something that's like politically charged, like the
Speaker 1: number of deaths in Iraq, and Republicans will generally be
Speaker 1: like further off than Democrats from reality.
Speaker 2: But when you start rewarding them with money for.
Speaker 1: Accuracy, they actually like they they get much more accurate,
Speaker 1: like that the difference almost Yeah, they knock it off exactly.
Speaker 2: But how about for a couple of bucks, you knock
Speaker 2: this bullshit off, all right? Right? Yeah.
Speaker 1: And so the reason they focus on the flat earth
Speaker 1: guy is that he was so his s was actually
Speaker 1: that he was a daredevil, like a backyard he idolized
Speaker 1: evil Canevil always wanted to be evil Canievil, like, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, five years before his death, he was like
Speaker 1: trying to fund his like backyard rocket launches and could
Speaker 1: only like raise three hundred and ten dollars on go
Speaker 1: fund mer, and then he was like, you know what
Speaker 1: would be smart is if I said it was all
Speaker 1: part of like flat earth shit. Oh shit, Like he
Speaker 1: was interested vaguely and flat earth stuff. It was like
Speaker 1: part of he was like a conspiracy theorist. But sure
Speaker 1: then he like hooked it up to that and was like,
Speaker 1: I fund my rocket launch so I can like expose
Speaker 1: the truth about like NASA being a conspiracy and that's
Speaker 1: where that all came from. But like there's lots to
Speaker 1: indicate that he didn't actually believe the Earth was flat.
Speaker 1: The like even the story didn't really make sense when
Speaker 1: you think about it, Like he didn't appear to be
Speaker 1: reaching or coming close to the levels of like an airplane,
Speaker 1: which still doesn't show you the curvature of the Earth.
Speaker 1: So it's like it didn't didn't really make sense that
Speaker 1: this guy was like actually trying to do anything with
Speaker 1: flat Earth more.
Speaker 2: Vibes than science honestly, with that whole crew.
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, And so it's it's just interesting.
Speaker 2: I think it like that.
Speaker 1: It's something that I come back to a lot as
Speaker 1: we're you know, dealing with this uh you know, the
Speaker 1: news is like the stupidity of others seems to be
Speaker 1: a myth that like both sides want to believe in
Speaker 1: and want to like simplify the other person's assumptions. And
Speaker 1: it's easy to do in the abstract and at a distance,
Speaker 1: but it's generally like less true in the like there
Speaker 1: there's these two systems of belief that we have, and
Speaker 1: like one is like symbolic beliefs and the other is
Speaker 1: like I believe there's a chair here that I can
Speaker 1: actually sit down on. All right, you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: then some people don't believe there's.
Speaker 2: From the RNC. All right, President Obama? Oh boy? Yeah,
Speaker 2: So anyway, sorry, go on.
Speaker 1: So anyways, I'll link off to the New York article
Speaker 1: on the footnotes. But it's a pretty interesting read that
Speaker 1: I think is like, I.
Speaker 3: Mean, it does show how like a lot of these
Speaker 3: people just come to embrace Oh, someone's calling right now,
Speaker 3: and should I answer them?
Speaker 2: When they go to a voicemail voicemail, Hey, what's up?
Speaker 3: Full, It's no one, I know it's it's probably some
Speaker 3: fucking robot call anyway, spam, But no, Like, it's interesting
Speaker 3: to see how malleable people are when it's just advantageous
Speaker 3: for them to have a certain belief set, whether that's
Speaker 3: to be like part of an in group or to
Speaker 3: be part of a bigger group.
Speaker 2: The social setting, or for your rocket fuckery.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, it's like convenient for social like it's
Speaker 1: they they point to this idea that like it's a
Speaker 1: driver of group identity, that like when you have beliefs
Speaker 1: that are like really strange, Like the more, the more
Speaker 1: unsubstantiated and strange the beliefs, the better, because then it
Speaker 1: proves like how down you are with the with the group.
Speaker 1: So like religions often define their membership on the basis
Speaker 1: of like really unverifiable or even like unintelligible beliefs, and
Speaker 1: like similar to.
Speaker 2: Yes, exactly, oh you don't okay, well I see you okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: yeah okay.
Speaker 1: So but then when you ask, like when the money
Speaker 1: is on the line, like they will not.
Speaker 2: Exactly.
Speaker 1: People just are surprisingly realistic when you put even a
Speaker 1: small amount of money, like the small amount of money
Speaker 1: that comes in a you know, experiment in the humanities, like.
Speaker 2: Ten dollars or something. Yeah, and even then that feels
Speaker 2: like a lot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, should we take one more break and
Speaker 1: come back and hit some more news.
Speaker 2: Let's do it, and we're back. We're back.
Speaker 1: And this is a headline that you may have seen
Speaker 1: over the weekend that was not in the onion. It
Speaker 1: is Joe Biden doubles down on false claim his uncle
Speaker 1: was eaten by cannibals.
Speaker 2: Yep, yeah, it's so.
Speaker 1: He was campaigning in Pittsburgh last week and told a
Speaker 1: story about how his uncle Bosey was shot down in
Speaker 1: Papua New Guinea and World War two. His body was
Speaker 1: never found because there used to be a lot of cannibals,
Speaker 1: for real in that part of Papua New Guinea. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and of course, the official war records concerning his uncle's
Speaker 1: death feature no reference to cannibalism or even that the
Speaker 1: plane was shot down. But these are the sorts of
Speaker 1: like family legends that people start blending with reality as
Speaker 1: you get.
Speaker 2: Older and older. Right here, let's just let's hear it.
Speaker 3: Let's hear from our president Joe Byron about the cannibalism
Speaker 3: that his family was subjected to.
Speaker 4: And my uncle they called him Ambrose, Brosie, they called him.
Speaker 2: He's honestly, it's.
Speaker 4: A hell of an athlete. They tell me when he
Speaker 4: was a kid and he became an Army Air Corps
Speaker 4: before the Air Force came along. He used to those
Speaker 4: single engine planes as reconnaissance over war zones. He got
Speaker 4: shot down in New Guinea and I never found the
Speaker 4: body because there used to be are a lot of
Speaker 4: cannibals for real in that.
Speaker 1: And uh oh man for wow, man, I feel you
Speaker 1: know what that is.
Speaker 3: Democrats Republicans need to unite over the fact that no
Speaker 3: matter which candidate is speaking, they will there will be
Speaker 3: a backdrop of board out of their minds, people holding
Speaker 3: signs for.
Speaker 2: Just like the fuck that's the case, What the fuck
Speaker 2: is he going? Uncle Wembozi was a elevant athlete and.
Speaker 1: Tuti, I'm serious man. She got shot down over the
Speaker 1: U over the Black forest and an old lady lured
Speaker 1: her to her house and baked her and pie, I'm
Speaker 1: serious man, exactly.
Speaker 2: She had gambs that would make Mussolini cry what gam
Speaker 2: talking about? Cry?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I love I remember when this came out too,
Speaker 3: because at first the headline was like Joe Biden's out
Speaker 3: here saying like cannibals ate his uncle and people like
Speaker 3: and then initially without him pushing back you're like, uh,
Speaker 3: even the official record from the Department of Defense says
Speaker 3: that he just wasn't found, had nothing to do with cannibals.
Speaker 3: But then I like that he doubled. Joe Biden really
Speaker 3: had to be like, no, I'm.
Speaker 2: Not kidding, and I'm not kidding.
Speaker 1: His favorite thing to do, say something incredibly stupid and
Speaker 1: then reiterate over and over that you're not kidding. Yeah,
Speaker 1: congratulations to him. That's wildly entertaining, but not not a
Speaker 1: ton of energy there.
Speaker 2: Especially with which you have people pushing back to.
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, on the other side of the presidential election,
Speaker 1: another low energy loser, Donald Trump. So obviously no cameras
Speaker 1: allowed in his New York trial, But there are the
Speaker 1: sketch artists, yep, and Donald Trump is not a fan.
Speaker 1: Apparently he reportedly critiqued the quality of the sketches behind
Speaker 1: the scenes, which isn't all that surprise, and considering that
Speaker 1: one caught him dozing off with his own lawyer kind
Speaker 1: of being like yeah.
Speaker 2: Like kicking him, Hey, motherfucker, all right.
Speaker 1: And then there's another sketch that I think a lot of,
Speaker 1: like I've I feel like everybody saw this one where
Speaker 1: he's just looks like a villain from a Doctor Seuss book.
Speaker 2: Oh totally yeah. He looks like the Grinches lawyer, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean, he's running a suit. He's like,
Speaker 2: I get you out of this sort.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just like a weird like shit eating grin making
Speaker 1: eye contact with the sketch artist.
Speaker 2: The thing that I love, though, is that not that
Speaker 2: I love this is the fucking part about whenever we
Speaker 2: because Trump is just such a fucking just.
Speaker 3: Loser with all kinds of weird things going on that
Speaker 3: like it's easy to make fun of kind of thing.
Speaker 3: The other story that kept going out was that he's
Speaker 3: just farting to a bunch the entire time, just part
Speaker 3: box sleeping and farting man, just rip Van Winkle, you know,
Speaker 3: just ripping them and sleeping them and and like and
Speaker 3: then that's what I come away with. I'm like, this
Speaker 3: fucking guy is gonna get away with some other ship
Speaker 3: that everyone's like, yeah, but he's farting man, and that sucks.
Speaker 2: We're farting our way into the apocalypse right now.
Speaker 3: But sure, I just I just like that there's really
Speaker 3: no way for them to get around the sleeping thing,
Speaker 3: because he's been sleeping pretty much every time he's in
Speaker 3: court and they're like this, this is as just a
Speaker 3: vendeta against him, that people I can't stay awake.
Speaker 1: I've had those things though, where like I don't know,
Speaker 1: they're definitely warm, warm rooms where you just have to
Speaker 1: sit still and you just can't stay awake.
Speaker 2: You know That's why. I that's me in high school college.
Speaker 3: I could not for the fucking if I'm sitting, especially
Speaker 3: if it's dark. Yeah, I happens like I just started
Speaker 3: fucking dozing off or just something where you just don't care.
Speaker 3: Like clearly, it's more a function of how disengaged from.
Speaker 2: The process Donald Trump is, because in his.
Speaker 3: Mind he's like, I don't know, I just have to
Speaker 3: sit here while they fucking tosk this shit and then
Speaker 3: I'll get it over like I always do.
Speaker 2: So I'll just fucking go to the sun here. Yeah.
Speaker 1: A Trump rep said that the sources behind the drawings
Speaker 1: are losers who will try to pedal fantasy as fact
Speaker 1: because they live miserable existence.
Speaker 2: Again, like that, it's just so good, like he's been real.
Speaker 1: I'm assuming this Trump rep is speaking on his behalf
Speaker 1: and maybe that this was directly authored. The statement was
Speaker 1: directly authored by him. I have no idea where I'm
Speaker 1: getting that, nuh and from.
Speaker 2: I think he's smart enough that he knows how to like.
Speaker 3: I think he has a job because he has his
Speaker 3: skill of talking how Trump wants to sound. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 3: because it's just always like they're losers and that's they're
Speaker 3: just and he's like perfect exactly, That's why I'm sleeping.
Speaker 2: Because they're losers and jealous.
Speaker 1: But he just he is very he's very thin skinned
Speaker 1: about the falling asleep in court.
Speaker 2: I know, it's weird.
Speaker 3: He doesn't he doesn't take much umbrage with the fart reports.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I haven't seen the fart reports. Are we getting those?
Speaker 1: Are those has Maggie Haberman kind of backed up?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I mean, let's see there there's always Michael Cohen talking
Speaker 3: about the smell rumors. But oh, someone says there's no
Speaker 3: evidence that Trump farted, okay according to Snows.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so his lawyer might just be incredibly flatulent.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because Haberman was the one that said he fell asleep. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and then other people were like it smells around him
Speaker 3: because the other thing that is something people say is
Speaker 3: that he's odious stickyness yeah, yeah, but.
Speaker 2: How that how that plays out, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously we're not gonna we'll never have a
Speaker 3: proper camera angle of a loud fart.
Speaker 2: But either way, he says, you.
Speaker 1: Get older, you definitely uh have a little bit less
Speaker 1: control over your flashlens. So this is not not shocking
Speaker 1: to me that he's a.
Speaker 2: Come to my house holiday.
Speaker 3: There's if you want to see old people fart in
Speaker 3: a grand chorus, it's it happens every time, you.
Speaker 2: Know, I do want to see that, Miles. Yeah, it
Speaker 2: was a lot for her. Master invitation accepted.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they come through, come through their farting right now?
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: Number one show on Netflix is What Jennifer Did, which
Speaker 1: is a troubling true crime documentary that is just ahead
Speaker 1: of in second place, Woody Woodpecker Goes to Camp, which
Speaker 1: I'm hearing also very dark, I bet you know.
Speaker 2: I mean, like, what is it?
Speaker 3: Are they just mapping like the Earnest films to Woody
Speaker 3: Woodpecker is just like Woody Woodpecker goes to.
Speaker 1: Prison, right, are you allowed to do that?
Speaker 2: I don't know, goes to camp like that was Earnest.
Speaker 1: Woody Woodpecker saves Christmas. It's interesting though, like Woody Woodpecker
Speaker 1: does not have an imprint. I feel like for this
Speaker 1: younger generation, maybe I'm wrong about that, but my kids
Speaker 1: missed Woody Woodpecker and was a fixture when I was
Speaker 1: a kid.
Speaker 3: Well then, do you remember how like insufferable you'd be
Speaker 3: doing the Woody Woodpecker laugh.
Speaker 2: As a kid.
Speaker 3: You're doing twenty percent commitment. Man, I need to really,
Speaker 3: I need you to be there.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Man, And they're like, dude, please shut up, and we're like, no,
Speaker 3: we're Woody Woodpecker. So maybe maybe blessed.
Speaker 2: The kids for not knowing that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But anyway, what if we made a character that
Speaker 1: was intentionally annoying as fuck?
Speaker 3: Yeah, and would cause parents around the world to have
Speaker 3: some kind of break down. But yeah, the things it's
Speaker 3: a the things about a woman who like hired a
Speaker 3: hit person to like kill her parents.
Speaker 2: Right yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Pretty hitmen that you can hire are basically not real.
Speaker 1: F YI, just for any of our our listeners out there,
Speaker 1: that's a cop. You're trying to hire one, that's a cop.
Speaker 1: But anyways, uh, certain photos in the documentary, uh are
Speaker 1: clearly allegedly but I mean we we now know the
Speaker 1: trademarks of AI editing images, and uh, this ship is
Speaker 1: clearly they just stuck it through an AI filter.
Speaker 2: And yeah whatever it was.
Speaker 1: Yeah, one of the EPs is admitting they did some
Speaker 1: photo editing for I guess like acceptable reasons to like
Speaker 1: remove other people and other like details from the picture
Speaker 1: so that it wasn't clear whose photos were being used, right,
Speaker 1: But they're not specifically speaking to the AI part. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Which that's the reason that's the story is because AI
Speaker 1: is putting people out of work and doing a shitty job.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: Exactly, if you wanted to remove someone from a photo
Speaker 3: or whatever, a person can do that. But when you
Speaker 3: run it through your thing and then suddenly they have
Speaker 3: like alien hands where like each hand has like three
Speaker 3: digits on it, just everything about. Like it's so funny
Speaker 3: how these people who are like make these decisions are
Speaker 3: like it's fine, no one's gonna look at the background,
Speaker 3: because a second you do, you're like, what the fuck
Speaker 3: is going on in this room? Like if you're just
Speaker 3: looking at her face, maybe sure, you're like, oh they're smiling, yeah,
Speaker 3: and like the context is a room, but you start
Speaker 3: looking at the hands, the nose, like just the inexplicable shit.
Speaker 2: There's no door knobs or hit this. Everything's just all bad,
Speaker 2: all bad.
Speaker 1: There's a there's a shelf full of lotions in the
Speaker 1: back background that is like appears to be like operating
Speaker 1: on mc escher physics. It's just like floating tilted sideways.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah that if you gave this task to a human,
Speaker 1: they'd have it done in about an hour. It would
Speaker 1: look great, would not have broken fingers.
Speaker 3: There's a whole subreddit they can go to on Reddit
Speaker 3: and you can just be like, hey, can you do
Speaker 3: this to a picture, and then you can just tip
Speaker 3: them at the end and they do it so quick
Speaker 3: and better than this.
Speaker 2: But again, dude, Oh I forgot to say.
Speaker 3: When I was in Japan, I saw this fucking ad
Speaker 3: on the side of a building that I was like,
Speaker 3: it sort of seemed pretty like innocuous until like I
Speaker 3: really read into it. It says it's called dip dream
Speaker 3: Idea Passion dip dot AI and I was like, oh no,
Speaker 3: And then the subhetter was Labor Force Solution Company.
Speaker 2: Oh no, that is the most final.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Labor Force Solution Jesus likest it's.
Speaker 2: Given not vibes.
Speaker 3: We don't need solutions to the labor force at all,
Speaker 3: Like it might be better pay, but not.
Speaker 1: Like we have the thing that will dust them forever. Yes,
Speaker 1: labor force, cleansing department or.
Speaker 2: No, whatever it is. But this is just like dude,
Speaker 2: AI everywhere.
Speaker 3: Like even with the Kendrick Lamar Drake beef, there was
Speaker 3: like a distrack that came out that was like it
Speaker 3: turned out to be AI. There's now Ai Tupac on
Speaker 3: a track that Drake put out. It's just there's so
Speaker 3: much like it's even it's even unsettling the rap like
Speaker 3: beef game right now.
Speaker 1: Like so basically Kendrick, Drake and j Cole were like,
Speaker 1: we're part of the Big three with Kendrick, the three
Speaker 1: best rappers, like, and they put themselves on the same
Speaker 1: level as Kendrick. Kendrick came out and just demolished them.
Speaker 3: In a verse he had one verse yeah, one verse
Speaker 3: future song right yeah with metro booming, and then then Drake,
Speaker 3: then Kendrick or then Cole responded and then he ended
Speaker 3: up being like you know what, actually I don't want
Speaker 3: smoke because yes, let's be real, that's really not Ja Coles,
Speaker 3: that's not Jay Cole's lane and he's a great rapper,
Speaker 3: but like most people know, he's like he's he's a
Speaker 3: he's an honest, sensitive guy, and I think he was like,
Speaker 3: this isn't really what I how I stand as a person.
Speaker 3: I was really pressured to respond and just doesn't feel
Speaker 3: right for me. He took that track down, and then
Speaker 3: everyone fucking flamed him because they're like, wow, bro, really
Speaker 3: like you get called out by name and you responded
