Speaker 1: Hey, listeners, it's James Parker. Can you keep a secret?
Speaker 1: Daughters of d C is up next, But first a
Speaker 1: quick word from our sponsor, Iron Horn's Epic Productions. And
Speaker 1: I heard Radio present Daughters of DC. It's no secret
Speaker 1: that in Washington, d C. Corruption is everywhere. You could
Speaker 1: say it's gone viral. That's why my friends and I
Speaker 1: decided to take on the system from the inside. I'm James,
Speaker 1: I'm Peyton, I'm Celia, I'm Natalie, and we're the Daughters
Speaker 1: that equality, fairness, justice. I grew up believing in those things,
Speaker 1: thinking they mattered. I was so naive. My name is
Speaker 1: James Parker. My mom, Congresswoman Angela Parker, is the first
Speaker 1: black woman elected Speaker of the House. So yeah, no
Speaker 1: pressure there. If it wasn't from my mom, I'd just
Speaker 1: be James, the invisible luner, spending way too much time
Speaker 1: on her computer. Instead, everyone's always looking at me like
Speaker 1: they expect something. What's fair about that? What's fair about
Speaker 1: everyone in your life deciding what they want you to
Speaker 1: be instead of you getting to decide for yourself. Sometimes
Speaker 1: I wish you would all just go away. Sometimes I
Speaker 1: wish I could just be someone else. Looks like the
Speaker 1: ever enterprising storm Alloy just found an squl injection vulnerability.
Speaker 1: But you said this spiral wall was supposed to be
Speaker 1: what do you call it? Impenetrable with that zero day
Speaker 1: glit shine earth last week, I'll be over this wall
Speaker 1: in two licks. Now do you believe me when I
Speaker 1: just say I need a minute? Onyx writer, don't you
Speaker 1: think you've had enough? Storm? I've been so generous, so magnanimous,
Speaker 1: more like megalomaniacal. It takes time to throw up a
Speaker 1: proxy to bounce my traffic through Kazakhs town. We don't
Speaker 1: have forever Storm, so we both know you'd love to
Speaker 1: spend all night with me. Save it for your fan
Speaker 1: fake conics and score. I'm over the firewall. Okay, send
Speaker 1: the code if I don't obliterate this mall where I'm screwed. Okay,
Speaker 1: if you really think you're ready, catch you've gotten awfully quiet.
Speaker 1: I'm concentrating this mallor is trash. I'm expunging it as
Speaker 1: we speak. All right, I gotta ghost in a minute.
Speaker 1: I hope you got things in the control over there
Speaker 1: or else. Wait somethings off. Yeah, I know later, No,
Speaker 1: this is not supposed to happen. Crap, crap, crap crap.
Speaker 1: James Renee Parker, what did you do? Did you boot
Speaker 1: me off my own router again? Sorry? Mom? I have
Speaker 1: half a dozen staffers downstairs giving up their Friday night
Speaker 1: no less to get this bill pass, and they need
Speaker 1: the internet to do their jobs. I know, I know,
Speaker 1: I just it wasn't on purpose. And look we're back up.
Speaker 1: Can I have one night where I don't have to
Speaker 1: worry that my daughter is turning into anonymous? Go get
Speaker 1: in here. What you're going out tonight? Right? Yeah? Lacrosse
Speaker 1: party should be fun. You're taken James with you, Mom. James,
Speaker 1: go and put on something other than a gray hoodie.
Speaker 1: Come on, James, you're can have out all night. Only
Speaker 1: you'll be mad about Mom making you go to a party.
Speaker 1: She gets to stay home. She's Speaker of the house
Speaker 1: and she's working. What's the big deal anyway? Um, in
Speaker 1: case you haven't noticed, my day goes home, school, home, online.
Speaker 1: I'm not exactly going to have friends at this party.
Speaker 1: It's a celious It wasn't that long ago that you
Speaker 1: two were besties, not anymore? Come on, that whole blow
Speaker 1: was like two years ago. I'm sure Mom doesn't care anymore.
Speaker 1: What about Bate. It's a lacrosse party, she'll be there.
Speaker 1: Or Natalie, she's at every party. We didn't really keep
Speaker 1: in touch. They well, I I kind of fell off
Speaker 1: the map last year when we were living with Grandma.
Speaker 1: It was too hard after Dad. I get it, believe me.
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean you can't get it back out there.
Speaker 1: I managed, all right, it's different for you. James were twins.
Speaker 1: If I can do it, you've got no excuse whatever.
Speaker 1: My point is, you're stuck going to this party, so
Speaker 1: you might as well hit them up. I'm sure they'll
Speaker 1: be happy you're rejoining the living. I don't know what
Speaker 1: if they don't want to see me. We did not
Speaker 1: come here to fear the few. Sure, we came here
Speaker 1: to shape it. Really, you're quoting Obama at me? Fine,
Speaker 1: here we go. I'm messaging everyone happy mm hmm. Hey Celia, Peyton, Natalie.
Speaker 1: I heard you were all going to be at Celia's party.
Speaker 1: See you there, Ah, we're here. Hello, Earth to James.
Speaker 1: What where's your head at? I changed my mind. I
Speaker 1: don't want to go in there. You go. I'll wait
Speaker 1: in the car. Get out, Cole come, no backing out
Speaker 1: now cool? No one got back to me, nobody wants
Speaker 1: me here. What about your carrying and supportive brother? Now
Speaker 1: get out? Not optional? Fine? Just think of this is
Speaker 1: preparation from my botillion next. I know you don't want
Speaker 1: to go, but maybe it'd be easier if you had
Speaker 1: a date. There's a guy on my team who needs
Speaker 1: an escort, and it just so happens that he's inside
Speaker 1: right now. I wouldn't even know how to talk to him.
Speaker 1: He's chill. You'll like him, trust me. He's a gamer
Speaker 1: like you. I think he plays Call of Duty. Hey,
Speaker 1: how's it going? Kyle? Nice kicks? Pay great save yesterday?
Speaker 1: You're not it's called wait come here. I am so
Speaker 1: sorry about my dad. By the way, he was not
Speaker 1: very nice to your mom this weekend. Isn't it a
Speaker 1: big faux pall for senator to be taken shots at
Speaker 1: the house? That's what said? Hey, Hi, shut up James
Speaker 1: Parker at a party. Look at you? I love that
Speaker 1: switch shirt. It looks soup comfy. Yeah? Thanks paying? So um,
Speaker 1: how's it going? Well? I'm just so surprised to see
Speaker 1: you here because I did mustn't you actually Celia and
Speaker 1: Natalie too on do you d C d you d
Speaker 1: C Really? I haven't even opened the app in forever.
Speaker 1: Wait here it is stealing my bunk. See you there?

Speaker 1: bet she gets called it for the rest of the season.
Speaker 1: Sto'll be cold. He's just being nice and to have
Speaker 1: it so know I'm here. What are we supposed to
Speaker 1: do with these things? James? You are just the cutest.
Speaker 1: What you start by getting some drinks? Come on, don't
Speaker 1: waste your time? Baby, Tanner? What up playing live streaming? Son?
Speaker 1: What up? Dance? Dance? It's your boy, Tanner, a k
Speaker 1: tan Man coming at you from the loose super Deluxe mansion.
Speaker 1: As you can see, we're just up in here raising
Speaker 1: hell after our epic win tonight. Ghost Barton's hashtag the
Speaker 1: Cross Teams Barton Pride, Babe, Babe, my god, Stop Tanner?
Speaker 1: Why do you have to stream everything? Can you just
Speaker 1: enjoy the party? Cross King and Queen right here make
Speaker 1: way for Royalty Old Gone. I love this song. Catch
Speaker 1: up with you later. Time to get out of hair
Speaker 1: before I choked to death in a cloud of sweating hormones.
Speaker 1: And there's Celia, Come on, James, you can do this.
Speaker 1: She's only like the queen at the school now, no
Speaker 1: big deal. Not believe who I shared a little rendeven
Speaker 1: with at the White House Correspondence did after after party
Speaker 1: last year? Oh my god, Celia who Rosy Beacham, Secretary
Speaker 1: of State, marks curts of having parents who donate to
Speaker 1: both sides. Tickets to all the top tier events, Celia,
Speaker 1: James Parker, Well wonders never cease. This party is kind
Speaker 1: of crazy, nothing compared to my sweet sixteen. Everyone had
Speaker 1: to check their phones at the door. You would not
Speaker 1: believe what happens when the cameras are off A long
Speaker 1: way from your twelfth birthday. Huh remember when we hit
Speaker 1: under your bed? Can we have a word, James, James,
Speaker 1: I love you, and it's cool you brought back the
Speaker 1: d O DC app and everything. But let's not start
Speaker 1: busting out kids stories. Okay, we're a little too old
Speaker 1: for that. I have a rep to maintain. Yeah, sorry,
Speaker 1: that was stupid. I totally get it. Okay, listen, you're amazing.
Speaker 1: Enjoy the party. You loosen up. Natalie's outside, maybe go
Speaker 1: sit next to her and I don't know, in hell
Speaker 1: deeply a few times. Sure, thanks Celia. Oh mg, Celia,
Speaker 1: I did I tell you about my Babby trip. I
Speaker 1: heard the rumors. Let me give you a little It's
Speaker 1: almost like I'm the only one who's even heard of Augusta.
Speaker 1: You know. Suffice it to say, Mrs Senson and I
Speaker 1: had words. I won't stand and be a part of
Speaker 1: a drama program that isn't actively advocating for non authoritarian
Speaker 1: Latinos voices. Natalie, how's it going, James? I just saw
Speaker 1: you were back on the app last from the past.
Speaker 1: Come say it, girl, join the dialogue. See here's my point, though,
Speaker 1: The entire education system is built to colonize our collective imaginations.
Speaker 1: Take the S A T S for instance. They are
Speaker 1: a total scam designed to appeal to white upper class students.
Speaker 1: So what does that say about college admissions? I guess
Speaker 1: Take the A C T S. George, remove the scales
Speaker 1: from your eyes. If we live in the box, we
Speaker 1: become the box. James, You get me right? I mean,
Speaker 1: what are we only permitted to be? These ivy targeted
Speaker 1: achievement missiles being shot out of a DuPont branded cannon.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean I am feeling the pressure
Speaker 1: from my mom. She's like my hero. By the way,
Speaker 1: come on, what about your dad? I mean he's developed
Speaker 1: quite the following. Let me be blunt. If I get
Speaker 1: stuck talking to a one more meat headed rosen bro,
Speaker 1: I'll rip my own ears off. No, you're cool, George James,
Speaker 1: Where are you going? I think I hear my brother
Speaker 1: calling me. Sorry, Natalie, catch up more later sounds good girl, now, George.
Speaker 1: Back to my point, the socioconemic intricacies of sorry, look
Speaker 1: where you're going? Sorry? Dance it is? Remember when we
Speaker 1: knew all the moves to work from home? We were
Speaker 1: like our own fifth harmony turns, Remember except for the
Speaker 1: special surprise I mentioned. Come on, come on, come on,
Speaker 1: it's upstairs. Dance on hey, Peyton? Wait what I bet
Speaker 1: we could get them to play work from home? Right,
Speaker 1: Payton dancing? Hey? Hey, a little advice. She's really loosen up.
Speaker 1: Maybe people would only call you a freak behind your
Speaker 1: back instead ofto your face. Come on, Fay, let's go
Speaker 1: okay ol hey d o. DC fans stay tuned. More
Speaker 1: Daughters of DC is up next, But first, a quick
Speaker 1: word for our sponsor, Cold Social Experiment over. Okay, time

Speaker 1: come here, I want you to beat someone. This is Adrian,
Speaker 1: the guy was telling you about. Hey, we have tricked together, right,
Speaker 1: maybe Adrian? You don't have an escort to the Botillion yet?
Speaker 1: Right that as of yet? Interesting? Well, it looks like

Speaker 1: go you sorry, don't rum in the car for you
Speaker 1: and I really ashamed have a Cole says you're a gamer? Me? Yeah, sorry,

Speaker 1: that's not really much. Hey did you have the toilet flushing?
Speaker 1: Because that means I have to go in and get it.
Speaker 1: I have to be by all right, you're okay, You're okay.
Speaker 1: Nothing to do, but wait out your mortification in here
Speaker 1: until Cole comes back, and then never attend another party
Speaker 1: ever again, for as long as you live. Um? Was
Speaker 1: that a d O d C alert? Hello? And I
Speaker 1: won one upstairs, first second bedroom. One on the ride
Speaker 1: on my way coming now, what is going on? Oh
Speaker 1: my god, pain, are you okay? Happened? I don't even
Speaker 1: really know it all happened so fast, but D d
Speaker 1: C was opening my phone, so a message. We're here
Speaker 1: for you. What do you need? I just want to
Speaker 1: go home. Yeah, Peyton and I had a great time
Speaker 1: at Celia's on Friday. You were kidding? She did in
Speaker 1: Celia's parents bedroom. Okay, pay her June Tanner ticket to
Speaker 1: the next level at Celia's party. You heard wrong. Valentina
Speaker 1: Tanner's the ultimate trophy boy. Lock it down, Peyton, You
Speaker 1: and Tanner doing the nasty? Okay, all right, you get
Speaker 1: a girl. No, seriously, it wasn't like that. Believe me.
Speaker 1: Here comes your voy Now can we talk Tanner? What
Speaker 1: happened on Friday? Babe? This place is not sexy. Let's
Speaker 1: go to the stable. No, I don't feel good about
Speaker 1: what happened. What are you talking about? Well? I um,
Speaker 1: I don't feel like I had a lot of control.
Speaker 1: How you feel? It's not my fault? No, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm trying to I'm having fun. Is the whole
Speaker 1: point of dating. If you don't want to be fun, don't.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but I I wasn't ready. Okay, then maybe
Speaker 1: I should find someone who is. I think Tanner just
Speaker 1: broke up with me. Good. You're better than that asshole,
Speaker 1: are you? Okay? No, he's so angry. Maybe I did
Speaker 1: do something wrong. I mean we were dating. It's not
Speaker 1: your fault. Peyton, thank you. I know it's been a while,
Speaker 1: but I can't talk to my other friends like I
Speaker 1: can talk to you all. You know. I guess same, Yeah,
Speaker 1: me too. It was kind of price, but I'm glad
Speaker 1: you resurrected D O d C. James. I know it's
Speaker 1: corny kids stuff. No, it's not. We needed each other
Speaker 1: and the app made it happen. Daughters of DC come
Speaker 1: back door, and now we have a mission taking down Tanner.
Speaker 1: I know we'll go to the headmaster file a complaint
Speaker 1: to Yes, No, I can't. I can't do confrontation, not
Speaker 1: after Colorama, I don't know Tanner's dance close with my dad.
Speaker 1: What have this gotten? The press will make it completely anonymous,
Speaker 1: trust me, Natalie Rosenberg, What now another sitting over non
Speaker 1: organic produce of the dining hall salad ball? No? Well,
Speaker 1: actually that's a good idea, but I'm here for justice.
Speaker 1: How many detentions do you want for this justice, Natalie,
Speaker 1: I'm not putting up Celia lou head Master Woodford, Well,
Speaker 1: a lovely ascot really accentuates your sideburns. We're here to
Speaker 1: file a complaint on behalf of an anonymous victim. What
Speaker 1: kind of complaint? Tanner read assaulted a student at a party?
Speaker 1: We want him expelled. That's not how this works, ladies.
Speaker 1: And filing a formal complaint is extensive. It involves a
Speaker 1: tribune of the board. Your anonymous victim would have to
Speaker 1: give a statement something into questioning. It's an intense process,
Speaker 1: and someone like Tanna will have a strong defense. Last time.
Speaker 1: What do you mean last time? Tanner's a repeat offender
Speaker 1: student privacy of course, Headmaster. But as my parents consider
Speaker 1: their annual donation, I'm sure what they want to know
Speaker 1: Their daughter isn't at school with a predator? Is that
Speaker 1: a threat? How about this? If you don't leave this minute,
Speaker 1: I'm searching both your lacas for contraband how does that sound?
Speaker 1: Ms rosenbog Um, Celia, maybe that's not such a good idea.
Speaker 1: Thank you for your time, head Master Woodford. We couldn't
Speaker 1: file a complaint, but we did find out Tanner's done
Speaker 1: this before. What But he wouldn't give us any details.
Speaker 1: We have no idea what happened. This whole thing stinks
Speaker 1: of a cover up. I can find out what happened.
Speaker 1: I thought you didn't like confrontation. I don't. But if
Speaker 1: Tanner's done this before, there's got to be a record, right,
Speaker 1: a file online that I can get and without any confrontation.
Speaker 1: I've been practicing exactly this kind of thing on my
Speaker 1: hacker forums. Hacker forums. Who even are you? Who am I?
Speaker 1: I'm Storm Alloy, That's who. The school is running Windows
Speaker 1: two thousands and the system is riddled with holes. This
Speaker 1: is a real level one. Bough does keep smashing accent.
Speaker 1: It's gonna explode at some point. The decryption key is
Speaker 1: still in its default location. Nudes little on excres about this.
Speaker 1: I'm in all right, DuPont, tell me your secrets. Let's
Speaker 1: see student records there he is raid come a Tanner,
Speaker 1: Oh Tanner. They're gonna need better grades than that to
Speaker 1: get into Dartmouth unless Daddy buys them a new building.
Speaker 1: Formal complaints, there's one. Wow, there's a lot here interviews
Speaker 1: and I'll just download this whoa pulls out. What's going on?
Speaker 1: The files are all disappearing? Where are they going? I'm
Speaker 1: not doing anything valiant? You are you? You can call
Speaker 1: me Smith? What did you do with Tannerspy? Im? Sorry?
Speaker 1: I represent a party with an interest in those files.
Speaker 1: I'm a party with interests in those files, and I
Speaker 1: was here first poor baby hackers out of their death.
Speaker 1: You know I could teach you a thing or two
Speaker 1: if you were resolved to listen. I'm not a baby hacker.
Speaker 1: I'm storm allowing, of course you are. Goodbye baby hacker
Speaker 1: for now. Damn it lostmuth lostmuth point Jane? What? Oh
Speaker 1: had Mr Whitford? Yes? Were you too unwrapped breaking into
Speaker 1: the administrator's account to hear me? You have a lot
Speaker 1: to explain, young lady. Crap crap, crap crap. H so disappointing.
Speaker 1: I had much higher hopes for young James. We have
Speaker 1: work yet to do to unmut her true potential. But
Speaker 1: as she just sounds further into the swamp, who knows
Speaker 1: what might float to the surface. Oh, you said you
Speaker 1: wanted to speak about the solidar case again, So if
Speaker 1: you're here to check I'm being by ticker. I know
Speaker 1: that I'm not going anywhere. If that's all you wanted
Speaker 1: to say, I'm going to turn in for the night.
Speaker 1: Good night. What do you have never been? As our
Speaker 1: dearest sixteenth President said, nearly all men can stand adversity,
Speaker 1: But if you want a testament's character, give him power.
