Speaker 1: Oh, this is actually costing me more money to do
Speaker 1: myself than to actually just have someone who knows what
Speaker 1: like who won't fuck it up, you know, like anything
Speaker 1: like breaks. I won't fuck with the brakes. Yeah, yeah, sure, yes,
Speaker 1: but that's so the opposite of me.

Speaker 4: Andrew T.
Speaker 3: I saw three takes come say Land on Christmas Week,
Speaker 3: basically Christmas week. I saw three takes come Sayling in
Speaker 3: like eight days before Christmas in the morning, Wait this morning,
Speaker 3: and were these takes from andre Ty from and Drety
Speaker 3: from Maderty? And were these takes from Anderty on Christmas
Speaker 3: Week or the morning?
Speaker 2: Yes? They were.
Speaker 4: Were you raised a question? And I was on the
Speaker 4: edge of my seat, So thank you for answering that news.
Speaker 3: I went to tam O Shanter and my friend Tampa shanter'sday.
Speaker 3: I guess like steak restaurant, primary restaurant in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that remains open against all odds.
Speaker 3: It's really well they I feel like they do a
Speaker 3: lot of their business during Christmas time because they it's
Speaker 3: like a I don't know, like a It has a
Speaker 3: very strong vibe. It's got a pub kind of like
Speaker 3: taverny vibe. And they have carollers all through the month
Speaker 3: of December. And my friend requested that song. And this
Speaker 3: is the one piece I want to bring to the world.
Speaker 3: Did you know that song is not called on Christmas
Speaker 3: Day in the morning, three ships, right, It's called three ships. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's crazy.
Speaker 4: I like it. I like a Christmas carol that like
Speaker 4: gets kind of artistic with it, Like, no, this is
Speaker 4: actually called three ships.
Speaker 2: What the fuck are you talking about? Three ships?
Speaker 4: That's what they saw. Man, that's like a whole motivation
Speaker 4: for the fucking thing.
Speaker 2: Fucking I don't like any of this.
Speaker 4: And also, what the fuck are they talking about? Is
Speaker 4: that like a nautical version of the Christmas Story where
Speaker 4: like the people are ships? Is it like in the
Speaker 4: Cars Universe Christmas story in the Cars Universe where the
Speaker 4: wise men are ships.
Speaker 3: Baby Jesus sort of starts out as like a like
Speaker 3: a kayak and then yeah, a catamaran.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. It was so annoying.
Speaker 3: My friend was like, I'd like three ships please, And
Speaker 3: of course everyone else at the table is like, what
Speaker 3: the fuck is this?
Speaker 2: That's not a Christmas Carol?
Speaker 3: And then the other part, this is just a note
Speaker 3: for Tamila Shanter, a place that is doing fine.
Speaker 4: Huge fans they have, the restaurant themselves, are big listeners,
Speaker 4: big fans they have.
Speaker 3: Someone's gotta be the Carolers have worked in this dimension
Speaker 3: now of like they kind of do sort of like
Speaker 3: a I guess, like a Victorian era version of the
Speaker 3: rat Pack kind of deal, and I strongly dislike it.
Speaker 2: I think, just do the do the fucking Carols. There
Speaker 2: was like a guy who was sort of like some
Speaker 2: cross between ebonyz or Scrooge and I guess Dean Martin
Speaker 2: doing bits just I don't want to from the Yeah, it.
Speaker 1: Was vaguely horny as opposed to infamously sober Dean Martin.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was.
Speaker 3: The whole thing was was just like, guys, let's just
Speaker 3: fucking do the Carrols. You know, we're on video character.
Speaker 3: I really went to tout on my face right now.
Speaker 3: It really bummed me out. We characters just saying.
Speaker 4: We were at a Christmas party, an annual Christmas party
Speaker 4: for my children's school yesterday, and the Carollers were like
Speaker 4: I just saw like I came in at the same
Speaker 4: time as the Carollers, as I always do to make
Speaker 4: sure that I'm announced.
Speaker 2: As a caller.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, and I just watched them go through the
Speaker 4: process of like they had amazing costumes on, like Scrooge
Speaker 4: era costumes and rosed up cheeks with like makeup, and
Speaker 4: then you know were immediately like ignored by all the
Speaker 4: like the just children running between their legs and like
Speaker 4: just like totally not what they had in mind at
Speaker 4: all and just stuck through it like Champs and were
Speaker 4: you know, did did did there?
Speaker 3: I think Carols if you're if you're dressing up in
Speaker 3: costume and you're Carol and you're really going for it again,
Speaker 3: but maybe you got a little bored and you decided
Speaker 3: today this is the year I'm going to do a
Speaker 3: little fucking character work. I will also say this is
Speaker 3: this is a real pitch for I guess whoever makes
Speaker 3: the iPad app that handles sheet music, which I assume
Speaker 3: as someone because most most modern singers, I think put
Speaker 3: all their music. You know, they don't have like sheet
Speaker 3: music anymore.
Speaker 2: They just have everyone's got an iPad.
Speaker 3: And if you are the maker of this app, I
Speaker 3: beseech you put on like a just like a soft
Speaker 3: yellow filter onto your thing, because everyone else is like
Speaker 3: got their iPad in the tavern and just blue light
Speaker 3: blasting on their faces from beneath, and it looks crazy,
Speaker 3: so at least fake it so it looks like a
Speaker 3: candle or something. If you really want to go the
Speaker 3: extra mile, put in a candle flicker. But that shit,
Speaker 3: that shit really took me out of it.
Speaker 2: I like that a lot.
Speaker 1: I think now I am not one to waste papers,
Speaker 1: as you both know me, but if you're giving a speech,
Speaker 1: I do feel like it adds another element, where like,
Speaker 1: if you're giving a wedding speech, for instance, having it
Speaker 1: on paper or note cards makes it seem like you
Speaker 1: put so like like a hundred times more effort into it.
Speaker 1: Then if you're reading it off your phone, even though
Speaker 1: it's still the same thing.
Speaker 4: And having it on a yellowed scroll even better, youll
Speaker 4: like the edges and reading it by candle light perfect.
Speaker 4: I do like that idea of the you know, changing
Speaker 4: the white. I feel like just generally like the white
Speaker 4: Christmas lights are sometimes too white. I feel like whoever
Speaker 4: makes the two bright headlights headlamps what are they called
Speaker 4: headlights of cars, like has gotten into the Christmas tree
Speaker 4: light game and they're making me like bright white blue
Speaker 4: Christmas lights that are like blinding and like look cold.
Speaker 4: I like a warmer, yellower glow, and I think you
Speaker 4: can do either one. So I'm just telling my neighbors
Speaker 4: you fucked up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, big, justin edit all that out and all that
Speaker 1: light bullshit that Jack was just this weird.
Speaker 4: Cold, weird cold light.
Speaker 2: Is fucking with us. It's fazing yeah.
Speaker 4: The coldish light. Yeah, get your white balance right, fucking decorators.
Speaker 4: All right, this is going to be this episode of
Speaker 4: the Mess. We're doing great, Andrew, I I can't. I
Speaker 4: also can't remember which one of you is a guest,
Speaker 4: which one of you? And Andrew, we're going to get
Speaker 4: to know you a little bit better at a moment. First,
Speaker 4: a couple of things that we're talking about. Uh. Today
Speaker 4: we're going to talk about the backlash against the CEO
Speaker 4: who snitched on Luigi Mangioni to the cops and was like, hey,
Speaker 4: that's our backpack that he was wearing. FYI, I don't
Speaker 4: know what I can tell you about that, but anyways,
Speaker 4: people are mad at him. We'll talk about that and
Speaker 4: just the ongoing response to the Luigi the Mangione of
Speaker 4: it all. We'll talk about bend Oregon's Google eye bandit,
Speaker 4: the Google eye bandit can't stand it, so that's the
Speaker 4: green eye bandit anyways. Uh, and then we'll talk about
Speaker 4: Craven the Hunter.
Speaker 2: There.
Speaker 4: They keep making these fucking movies, these Sony Spider Man Universe,
Speaker 4: non Spider Man movies. Another one just dropped. I did
Speaker 4: not know that's what it was. I never know that
Speaker 4: that's what it is until they come out. Nobody sees
Speaker 4: them and they're like, well, Sony tried to trick us again,
Speaker 4: but again nobody went and saw this fucker.
Speaker 1: Look at all this money. This movie lost it. It's like, oh,
Speaker 1: I don't even know that that's probably why.
Speaker 4: But this has an incredible detail in this story that
Speaker 4: was It was like a real fucking plot twist for me. Yeah,
Speaker 4: we'll get to but that's we'll get to at the end.
Speaker 4: And that is called a tease. You can you can
Speaker 4: stick around.
Speaker 1: This is a harder job than it seems like the
Speaker 1: teas thing people don't talk about when you have to
Speaker 1: put in a tease, Like you are a good host, Jack.
Speaker 1: I think I'm sorry for all the things I've said
Speaker 1: in the past about you. I think you are pretty
Speaker 1: good at this.
Speaker 4: Like, that's so nice of you. Unfortunately we edit all
Speaker 4: those things out of the show, so none of the
Speaker 4: listeners know what the fuck you're talking about. But oh, well,
Speaker 4: I think you're a huge fan of mine.
Speaker 2: So I am now now I am.
Speaker 4: Nobody's allowed to say anything bad about me on this show.
Speaker 4: But you both know that you signed the contract, the
Speaker 4: yellow scroll contracts that I.
Speaker 2: Mean, so yellow Yellow.
Speaker 4: Just signed that ship. Before we get to any of that, Andrew,
Speaker 4: we do like to ask our guests, what's something from
Speaker 4: your search history?
Speaker 2: History? Ch history?
Speaker 3: Yeah, motherfuckers, get right?
Speaker 2: Yeah, stupid.
Speaker 3: I searched for well, so I went to five holiday
Speaker 3: parties but really Christmas parties in two no three days?
Speaker 2: Whoa too much?
Speaker 3: And I also sort of volunteered to cook too much?
Speaker 3: And I added on an additional cooking thing yesterday for
Speaker 3: no real sensible reason. But the first one was some
Speaker 3: of my friends new friends Ish who moved here from London.
Speaker 3: So they're fucking English as fuck. Yeah, they had a
Speaker 3: Christmas roast.
Speaker 4: Are they new Ish or they're your friend's Ish?
Speaker 2: No, they're new Ish friends. Okay, very nice? Yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: but they're you know, they've they've only been here a
Speaker 2: yearine change.
Speaker 1: I think I just wanted to clarify for their sake,
Speaker 1: because these that you're friends with similar age, the red
Speaker 1: Coats that you're friends with lobster.
Speaker 3: Fats, So yeah, i'd say probably. I don't actually know
Speaker 3: they're They're not like good enough friends that I know
Speaker 3: everyone's age.
Speaker 2: No, that's not true. I went to a birthday party
Speaker 2: that I didn't pay attention to what was happening.
Speaker 4: Actually, one of them said the candles.
Speaker 3: To be honest, there is an age, okay, indisputably an age.
Speaker 3: I just don't remember it. But I I thought I
Speaker 3: would get cute and make a English trifle okay for dessert.
Speaker 3: And then I just because I clearly have too much
Speaker 3: time on my hands, I thought, oh, instead of doing
Speaker 3: just fucking pudding, I'll like get the stuff. And this
Speaker 3: is where my searchestor comes in, called bird's custard powder,
Speaker 3: which is the shit you're supposed to use to make
Speaker 3: English trifle. It's that kind of it's thinner than pudding,
Speaker 3: and it comes in a little you know, it's powder.
Speaker 3: It's basically cornstarch and another stabilizer powder. And what I
Speaker 3: learned about myself and America and the rest of the
Speaker 3: world because I made a batch and I did not
Speaker 3: realize that because America is America and the rest of
Speaker 3: the world is the rest of the world. Bird's custard
Speaker 3: is not inherently sweetened, Like it has vanilla flavoring, but
Speaker 3: no sugar in it, so it is not sweetened. And
Speaker 3: I just assume every other prepackaged mix in America, even
Speaker 3: shit you don't want to have sugar, has a fuckload
Speaker 3: of sugar in it. So this was disgusting, and I
Speaker 3: ruined my first batch of trifle, which was like, honestly
Speaker 3: like kind of a lot of ingredients when it So.
Speaker 4: It's disgusting, but you made it the way that it
Speaker 4: was intended to be made or no, I just didn't.
Speaker 2: I was just like, obviously this has sugar in it.
Speaker 3: It's a mix, okay, So I just I just kind
Speaker 3: of like skimmed it. And I didn't clock that you're
Speaker 3: basically supposed to put in as much sugar as powder.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 3: She's also fucked up when you think about a box
Speaker 3: of jello, and it was the final result of that
Speaker 3: was still less.
Speaker 2: Sweet than just like your average jello pudding. Like, yeah,
Speaker 2: you is that? Do you enjoy cooking or is this something? Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm pretty I'm pretty pretty.
Speaker 3: Good at like the big a big cooking thing, like
Speaker 3: doing a lot of stuff. So also on yesterday, that
Speaker 3: was Friday. And then yesterday I made lasagna for my
Speaker 3: friend's lasagna party, which was too much. And then because
Speaker 3: I had borrowed the trifle dish in the first place,
Speaker 3: and I was going to return it to my friend,
Speaker 3: and I still had a fuckload of birds custard powder
Speaker 3: and like all this milk that I didn't really want around,
Speaker 3: I made another trifle and put it in the dish
Speaker 3: to return it.
Speaker 2: Now, what is it?
Speaker 4: I actually looked up what a trifle was like over
Speaker 4: the weekend for some reason, like my kids, maybe there
Speaker 4: was a song that mentions the trifle or something like that.
Speaker 1: I forget why, but we were looking trifling. It's bills, bills, bills. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: that's right.
Speaker 4: We were listening to bills, bill bills.
Speaker 3: So that was the other thing that I didn't search
Speaker 3: but I probably should have, which is, how does fucking
Speaker 3: trifling derive? Presumably from trifle, because the trifle, as far
Speaker 3: as I can tell, is humongous and labor intensive, and
Speaker 3: I mean, it's ultimately not my favorite, but trifling seems.
Speaker 2: Much worse than that. And and there's a smallness implied
Speaker 2: in trifling.
Speaker 4: It's flavor it's a mere trifle, but a mere trifle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but this trifle dish was like easily a gallon
Speaker 3: worth of putting with cream cake, port jam and fruit.
Speaker 2: Wow, it's fucking crazy. I put in.
Speaker 1: I got caught, of course, the alcohol one Jesus Christ blake,
Speaker 1: which yeah, like a custard's last stand over there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: call your co host an alcoholic. Is this something that
Speaker 1: you called Miles a drug addict?
Speaker 2: Huh? Because he is one. Yeah, we can back anyway.
Speaker 5: That's a that's a fucking tribal trifle. Is just like
Speaker 5: a big ass, fucking custardy mess.
Speaker 3: It's good, I think, but it is one of those
Speaker 3: things where you're like this is this is fucking ridiculous.
Speaker 3: I guess it's most similar to like a pre made
Speaker 3: strawberry shortcake in flavor profile, you know, like the kind
Speaker 3: of like when you buy of a strawberry shortcake that's
Speaker 3: been sitting in a in a cooler.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I just remember what it was. It's a
Speaker 4: book called children's book called The Worst Children, Part two,
Speaker 4: the World's Worst Children Too, and it talked about a
Speaker 4: baby that eats a trifle and they may it seemed
Speaker 4: like it's a big, a big amount of thing that
Speaker 4: he's eaten. Which, yeah, that that's why I looked it up.
Speaker 4: I was like, wait, is a trifle like big?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I was having the same exact experience with you via
Speaker 4: David Williams is the World's Worst Children too.
Speaker 2: We're gonna do.
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna If you're on YouTube, you're getting a preview.
Speaker 3: But this is like, you know, the closest size comparison. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that made damn ye.
Speaker 4: So this one's not going up on YouTube, but uh
Speaker 4: I wish it was now because I was a beautiful,
Speaker 4: beautiful cake.
Speaker 2: I mean it's not.
Speaker 3: It's just like a huge It's just like if a
Speaker 3: pudding like like putting in cake was in a gallon.
Speaker 2: It's like literally a gallon. It's so so much of
Speaker 2: the ship.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got to be a real, real British lad,
Speaker 3: a little little lord to enjoy this?
Speaker 4: Was it? Do you think that they were like originally
Speaker 4: like trifle being small was like sarcastic trying to figure
Speaker 4: out how they got there.
Speaker 2: It's British says to humor. For sure. That is something
Speaker 2: that's very funny.
Speaker 4: Let's take a quick break and we'll be right back
Speaker 4: to talking about overrated, underrated, and other shit.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back.

Speaker 4: desk record time. By the way, barely.
Speaker 2: Take we did. We did good work while you took
Speaker 2: your headphones off.
Speaker 1: We did really good work. That's the first time we
Speaker 1: ever had to break in the middle of an overrated,
Speaker 1: underrated this episodes We're going craver. I could I could
Speaker 1: fill a buster about custard forever. Also the custard that
Speaker 1: was available with comments amens custard, which I took the
Speaker 1: colonizer mentality and went with birds but obviously omens.
Speaker 2: How could it not be superior?
Speaker 4: Yeah, a couple were there? A couple of birds at
Speaker 4: the party? All right, I'm gonna stop that.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah yeah, yeah, mate, yeah yes mate, yes yeah baby,
Speaker 3: yeah baby.
Speaker 4: All we needed to get I was just seeing it
Speaker 4: would go.
Speaker 2: I feel Yeah, I felt so much better.
Speaker 4: If it wasn't you, it was about to be me.
Speaker 2: I was.
Speaker 4: It was so fun. That was so fun. What is
Speaker 4: something you thinks underrated?
Speaker 2: Underrated? How much gambling debt this country is about to
Speaker 2: be in?
Speaker 3: I did not realize because I'm just like not like
Speaker 3: built like a sports.
Speaker 2: Guy in this way. But like, obviously I understand.
Speaker 3: Like sports huge, I like my few esoterokey sports, and
Speaker 3: and I all recognize that what I'm about to say
Speaker 3: is people will perceive this with a tinge of irony.
Speaker 3: But I was playing poker at the casino the other
Speaker 3: day and there was a fucking kid at my table
Speaker 3: who was holding up the table because he I mean,
Speaker 3: I'll just you know, I'm not here to judge anyone
Speaker 3: else's poker play, but let's just say he was pretty
Speaker 3: bad at it and very sort of aggressive, relatively splashy
Speaker 3: flashi as an It felt like he was just there.
Speaker 4: To around, not knowing what he's done. Yeah, but not
Speaker 4: holding the table up with a handgun. Not, No, he
Speaker 4: was holding up He was holding up play, holding the works,
Speaker 4: holding up the way because while he was meant to
Speaker 4: be in fucking poker hands, this is also he was
Speaker 4: in every hand because he was just you know, calling everything.
Speaker 2: How old was this child?
Speaker 4: Like?
Speaker 2: How child? Are we talking?
Speaker 3: I'm pretty old, but I mean he felt like he
Speaker 3: was in his mid twenty maybe.
Speaker 2: Okaya, of course this is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but this this dude was holding up play
Speaker 3: because he was on face time with a lady friend
Speaker 3: of his who was placing draft kings bets for him
Speaker 3: while he was gambling, you know, playing poker rather badly.
Speaker 3: And I was just like, oh, we are like fucked,
Speaker 3: fucked or like people's like money, there's just a new
Speaker 3: quicker dimension for people's money to leave them with legalized
Speaker 3: sports gambling. Then I then I realized I was just
Speaker 3: going to get faster and worse. It's really wild, yeah,
Speaker 3: because I was just like, well, a lot of like
Speaker 3: relatively stable countries have legalized sports gambling, Like how bad
Speaker 3: could it be? And I was just like, oh no,
Speaker 3: this is like truly wild. And look, I mean I
Speaker 3: know again, I'm a I'm a poker player. I don't
Speaker 3: do any gambling related activities that I don't at least
Speaker 3: believe I have a mathematical edge.
Speaker 2: And yeah, yeah, and you have.
Speaker 4: Your mathematical edge because of that Kenny Rogers song. That's
Speaker 4: what you told exactly. He said that you just studied
Speaker 4: that song and that really good.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's all you need, you know, and data is
Speaker 3: bearing it out. But I do not currently have enough
Speaker 3: large enough data set to be sure I'm a winning
Speaker 3: poker player of what things seem to be trending in
Speaker 3: that direction.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I have a friend who made who kind of made
Speaker 4: his living for a number of years playing poker, and
Speaker 4: it was just it sounded like it was a monotonous grind.
Speaker 4: It was like a four hour like at least four
Speaker 4: hours at the table, just waiting, waiting, waiting, and then
Speaker 4: like you know where they don't know what they're.
Speaker 3: Doing, Yes, exactly. It's that that's the tricky part is
Speaker 3: like just having a good enough hand. Tricky slash depressing
Speaker 3: part is just wait until you have a good enough
Speaker 3: hand at the stakes.
Speaker 2: I play out to just take people's money and it's
Speaker 2: really unpleasant.
Speaker 3: But it was wild how much like this guy was
Speaker 3: like I got a system to beat draft kings.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like, you're right.
Speaker 3: This feels like do you know how much like the
Speaker 3: mouth they spend in advertising alone means they need to
Speaker 3: be so profitable, which means your ass doesn't have a system.
Speaker 1: It's like supersize me where he's like, I'm going to
Speaker 1: beat McDonald's, Like, no, you're not.
Speaker 2: You're just too it's too big.
Speaker 1: My one of my best friends is a professional poker player,
Speaker 1: and it is when the same thing happens every single
Speaker 1: time we're out, people ask you what you do, and
Speaker 1: I say comedian and then he says professional poker player.
Speaker 1: And people are so psyched to talk to him about it.
Speaker 1: And it is always the least interesting thing. Where the
Speaker 1: reason why he does it professionally. He clocks in at nine,
Speaker 1: he clocks out at five, He doesn't go to the casino.
Speaker 1: He plays multiple hands. He will then take a break
Speaker 1: to pick up his kids from like it's the most
Speaker 1: like standard. He's very you know, professional and treats it
Speaker 1: like a job. So I have a bunch of hands open,
Speaker 1: I play them, I fold. I don't get emotional about it.
Speaker 1: It's all like you said, Andrew, like just mathematical, like
Speaker 1: playing the paper.
Speaker 2: It's more it's I've started.
Speaker 3: This is this is the thing I've gotten into. This
Speaker 3: is truly revealing too much about me. Is a friend
Speaker 3: of mine is going pro and he is in this
Speaker 3: group of pro poker players, but one of them has
Speaker 3: ambitions of becoming a screenwriter. I've written a pilot, so
Speaker 3: we are trading with me with this like very high
Speaker 3: end poker pro I love it, like literally sessions of
Speaker 3: poker coaching and like screenwriting class. And it has been
Speaker 3: so this has sort of formalized my practice. I have
Speaker 3: all kinds of graphs and data and shit like that,
Speaker 3: and the way I'm like the romance of potential like
Speaker 3: romance of pro poker player, and the reality being like
Speaker 3: the number of spreadsheets that are involved in being an
Speaker 3: actual profitable poker player. It's like kind of indistinguishable from
Speaker 3: being a pretty low level Wall Street guy, right, Like, yeah,
Speaker 3: it's only math and large numbers, and that's that's how
Speaker 3: you handle the variants.
Speaker 2: It's really the spreadsheets.
Speaker 4: Like he has something capturing the hands and then basically
Speaker 4: like putting putting that directly into a spreadsheet, and then
Speaker 4: he analyzes and like sees where he could have improved.
Speaker 2: Yes, basically yes, let me see.
Speaker 3: It will be incriminating if I hold up my laptop
Speaker 3: with a graphic. I don't want to do this, but
Speaker 3: I literally I'm just like gathering hands and like putting
Speaker 3: him in graphs and then analyzing the play and then.
Speaker 2: Just sucks all the fun out of it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they go to Teddy KGB's warehouse game with all
Speaker 4: the just guys in town, where you get a royal
Speaker 4: flush at the end and probably win in dramatic fashion.
Speaker 4: And your girl leaves you. But in the end it's
Speaker 4: like it's better for her, and you got to be like, hey,
Speaker 4: you know, that's the breaks of the game. No one
Speaker 4: to hold them, no one to.
Speaker 2: Full Ye, that's right.
Speaker 4: Never count your money when you're sitting at the table.
Speaker 4: I think about that line all the time in the
Speaker 4: most pathetic context, like if I'm like winning it fantasy football,
Speaker 4: and I'm like, should I go check and see, like
Speaker 4: what place this will put me in? If I win?
Speaker 4: If I get like what I expected, then I'm like
Speaker 4: not Kenny Rogers. Kenny Rogers said, never never count your
Speaker 4: money when you sit at the table.
Speaker 3: I will just say, if anyone really likes poker, and
Speaker 3: it does it, it's just getting into it. Almost every
Speaker 3: piece of advice from poker media is you almost want
Speaker 3: to do the exact opposite, right, always know how much
Speaker 3: money you have?
Speaker 2: Almost always uh, you know you can't.
Speaker 5: Your everything from Rounders is crazy, Like it's just like,
Speaker 5: don't do any of that.
Speaker 4: You don't listen to the Oreo cookies to see which
Speaker 4: way it wants you to go.
Speaker 3: It's so if you had, if you had to tell
Speaker 3: like that, why would you tell the man just take
Speaker 3: his money every day for the rest of his natural life.
Speaker 4: Got a built in theatrical little tell that I do
Speaker 4: for no discernible reason. Yeah, Andrew, what is something you
Speaker 4: think is overrated?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 3: Man, talking to your friend's dumb kids? I was at
Speaker 3: another holiday party.
Speaker 1: And that's Jack. No, I'm just kidding me. That insinuated
Speaker 1: that your kids were dumb. Your kids aren't dumb.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I wanted to insult you, and I insulted
Speaker 2: your family. You know, I'm gonna tell you this. My
Speaker 2: kids are probably pretty dumb.
Speaker 3: Jacks kids count Jack's kids count as dumb kids. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I haven't even met him, but they're within the you
Speaker 3: know what I think? Actually, you know, I think the
Speaker 3: problem is my friend's kid is smart for a kid. Yeah,
Speaker 3: because she was at like, you know, a holiday party
Speaker 3: with mostly adults and like doing fine. I had two realizations.
Speaker 3: One is just like, because of like the way my
Speaker 3: life is configured regrettably, I as a single person with
Speaker 3: no kids and you know, kind of no real responsibilities.
Speaker 3: Was the adult who was by far the closest to this.
Speaker 3: I want to say eleven year old's life experience.
Speaker 4: The time you wake up on the weekends. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Literally, I was just like, I kind of just like, oh, man, yeah,
Speaker 5: it's like funny that I'm talking to the like the kid.
Speaker 3: And then I kind of looked around the party and
Speaker 3: I was like, I'm her closest peer at the party.
Speaker 3: You're both asking for rides to them all.
Speaker 2: I was just.
Speaker 3: Like like, oh, everyone else here has shit, like real
Speaker 3: family life responsibility shit happening, and I certainly do not.
Speaker 3: And that means me and the kid are the same.
Speaker 3: So yeah, so don't talk to your friends dumb kids,
Speaker 3: because they don't really make you a question a lot
Speaker 3: of shit about yourself or myself most importantly, but also
Speaker 3: this kid understandably didn't. The hallmark for me an old
Speaker 3: person is how long it takes for them to understand
Speaker 3: nine to eleven was a pretty bad day, and it
Speaker 3: took a very long time.
Speaker 2: And I was like, you know what, fuck you kid.
Speaker 4: Wait a second. That's what you do in your conversations
Speaker 4: with kids, is you're trying to convey.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's how I start this is a question. I'm
Speaker 3: doing the opposite of George Bush reading The Hungry Goat.
Speaker 3: You know, I'm just like, I open with this to
Speaker 3: see if the kid can handle it to like, you know,
Speaker 3: are you are you?
Speaker 2: Are you really?
Speaker 3: No? The kid brought up how sad she was that
Speaker 3: fucking January sixth was upcoming, and I was like, uh,
Speaker 3: you know, I think her friend had a birthday on
Speaker 3: January sixth, and I countered with, well, I got a
Speaker 3: bunch of friends who have birthdays on September eleventh. Eight
Speaker 3: ship kids, that's a long beat. And then she's like,
Speaker 3: oh right, nine to eleven. I was like, you know
Speaker 3: what funk? You can't you forgot? Oh man, yeah, anywhere
Speaker 3: a second plane has hit the tower. We're under attack.
Speaker 2: There.
Speaker 4: I was a clear Tuesday morning. That's how you open
Speaker 4: the conversation. You're doing different postures I do.
Speaker 3: I have a little audio clip to just make it
Speaker 3: richer of like very you know, Wolf Flitzer like stings
Speaker 3: like Brillian.
Speaker 2: Leaning, yeah, yeah, oh my god, yeah and yeah.
Speaker 3: It's sort of like a little radio play I do
Speaker 3: for children, and then ends with like a star spangled
Speaker 3: rendition of Star Spangled Banner by the children's choir, and
Speaker 3: I am crying a little bit by the Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah you do stick the landing. I've seen you do it,
Speaker 1: and it's thank you. It does stick in your head. Yeah,
Speaker 1: thank you, sir, I'll never performance.
Speaker 3: All right, well, thank you taking off enough and off
Speaker 3: been talking quite a long time, but we.
Speaker 4: Have been talking a long time to get to these stories.
Speaker 4: But as you heard when we were previewing the stories,
Speaker 4: nothing's really happening, so we can just you know, we
Speaker 4: got plenty of time to talk about these these three
Speaker 4: bullshit stories. We talked about the New Jersey drones yesterday
Speaker 4: on the Trending episode from the weekend. But do you
Speaker 4: guys have drone takes?
Speaker 2: Do you are you?
Speaker 4: Are you believing?
Speaker 1: Do you believe? Pissed off? I'm really pissed off about
Speaker 1: these drones. I live in North Jersey and have not
Speaker 1: seen a single drone, and I've been looking like i've
Speaker 1: I also have never I've just been wanting no one's
Speaker 1: smart walks around looking at the sky. Yeah you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, maybe look where you're going. But I
Speaker 1: didn't realize how many things are in the sky near
Speaker 1: New York City. And it's like there's three of the
Speaker 1: biggest airports in the world are within fifteen miles of
Speaker 1: one another in this area. There's helicopters, there's fucking consumer drones.
Speaker 4: You know, there's Andrew to cue the tape with the
Speaker 4: sound type with the jet. It's just someone.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't know. I don't really think it's
Speaker 1: that big of a deal.
Speaker 2: Like I haven't. I'm here either, and I don't see
Speaker 2: any of these fucking drones.
Speaker 4: H I think there's a lot of drones, and this
Speaker 4: guy constantly because people are allowed to have drones, and
Speaker 4: they just change the laws to make it even more
Speaker 4: possible to fly the way of the fuck you want,
Speaker 4: and people are just catching up to that fact. That
Speaker 4: is my official stance as of this moment. But I
Speaker 4: do famously want to believe. I coined that phrase. I
Speaker 4: want to believe, and yeah, I'm one of them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, did hope we're in aliens?
Speaker 4: Yeah, Andrew any any anything.
Speaker 3: I will say I had completely been ignoring this because
Speaker 3: I was like, there's yeah, there's so many fucking drones.
Speaker 3: I did not realize how much of the discourse had
Speaker 3: veered into alien business, which, yeah, come on, guys.
Speaker 1: It doesn't disservice to the drones, to this American made.
Speaker 4: Technology, you know, Oh god, I think it does a
Speaker 4: disservice to the USS NIT minutes sighting where the real
Speaker 4: alien sightings. These are just drones people. But that's that's
Speaker 4: the type of annoying person I am to be stuck
Speaker 4: talking to. I can't even get sentence with eleven year old.
Speaker 4: They're just like this guy's talking about drugs.
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 3: The worst case scenario, of course, is that these are
Speaker 3: like US owned anything, which they almost certainly are because
Speaker 3: they're flying.
Speaker 2: Around the US. Yeah, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4: All right, Yeah, there we got nothing for you, folks.
Speaker 4: If you if I'm if I'm missing something big, please
Speaker 4: hit me up. But I'm just like, I've seen zones
Speaker 4: do cool shit. I've seen lots of drones fly together
Speaker 4: at the same time, in coordination with one another. I
Speaker 4: have yet to hear of like something that these drones
Speaker 4: are doing that is like more impressive than what I've
Speaker 4: already heard.
Speaker 2: Of drones do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, something very funny happened yesterday. Were at the Eagles
Speaker 1: game in Philadelphia.
Speaker 2: There was a fight.
Speaker 1: They do those flyovers of like military planes, and then
Speaker 1: people like around Philadelphia started being like what.
Speaker 4: The fuck these drones? Did anybody hear those truns?
Speaker 1: It's like no, there were these f sixteens that were
Speaker 1: booked four years ago to fly over the stupid stadium anyway,
Speaker 1: do you.
Speaker 4: Buy in at all to the idea that it's just
Speaker 4: something endemic to the people of New Jersey, it being
Speaker 4: like New Jersey was.
Speaker 2: The place famously drones.
Speaker 4: Well, no, they were famously the people who got fooled
Speaker 4: by the War of the World's teleplay or radio play
Speaker 4: back in the day, Like the farmers in New Jersey
Speaker 4: were the ones who were like I'd like to see
Speaker 4: Orson Wells and his aliens come out here like holding
Speaker 4: a shotgun. That might be it.
Speaker 2: I think they want something, you know, like one thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Philly has you know, like it's the Declaration, you know, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they have their own thing they want like can it
Speaker 1: be drones? Can it be aliens? Can we please have something?
Speaker 2: And no? The answer is no. The answer is.
Speaker 3: Not yeah, yeah yet, Yeah, the aliens are gonna get
Speaker 3: fought off by our sick ass drones.
Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, let's talk about the backpack CEO peak backpack. Actually,
Speaker 4: before we get into any of the stories, let's take
Speaker 4: one more break. Yes, jam through these motherfuckers.
Speaker 2: What are you gonna push ups? What are you doing?
Speaker 2: What are you doing?
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're gonna do forty push ups, be right back
Speaker 4: here we go. That's why I sound like what I'm
Speaker 4: doing push ups? Never done a push.
Speaker 3: Up before, and we're back. No, we're from now on.
Speaker 3: We're taking bets or I'm laying two to one that
Speaker 3: Jack's next lap doesn't beat the time on his third lap.
Speaker 4: I did two laps that time, so well, yeah, my
Speaker 4: heart was really at its breaking point after those two
Speaker 4: laps the commercials.
Speaker 1: Is that a problem? Can I just talk over the ads?
Speaker 1: Is that a big deal?
Speaker 2: We assume this, I'll stay it in.
Speaker 4: Yeah, did you guys? Have you guys heard of the
Speaker 4: Peak CEO? The CEO of the backpack company that made
Speaker 4: Luigi Mangioni's backpack, He like kind of with real pick
Speaker 4: me energy, reach out to The New York Times and
Speaker 4: was like, hey, uh, by the way, I recognize that backpack,
Speaker 4: that's one of ours. Sorry the NYPD. Easy to mistake
Speaker 4: with the New York Times, but.
Speaker 2: I mean, stay on your grind.
Speaker 3: Obviously market all the time that they cannot not capitalize
Speaker 3: on an opportunity to get your brand out there.
Speaker 2: And this is I mean, you know he had them.
Speaker 3: He was a maker of the most famous backpack for
Speaker 3: easily a week and you gotta fucking you gotta you
Speaker 3: gotta snatch that w you know, but he just earned
Speaker 3: nice backpacks.
Speaker 4: And like they are like really nice backpacks that are expensive.
Speaker 4: They're like top of the line. So maybe like for people,
Speaker 4: maybe the NYPD were like, yeah, maybe maybe.
Speaker 2: We got a rich kid.
Speaker 4: Maybe that's how they started like putting together a profile
Speaker 4: of who it was. Oh my god, plus all that
Speaker 4: monopoly money. But then so I don't know, I don't
Speaker 4: know what information he thought he was gonna provide, Like
Speaker 4: it feels like telling So right after the shooting, I
Speaker 4: couldn't stop telling people that I had stayed at that
Speaker 4: hotel the week before. It was actually like two months before,
Speaker 4: but I was like so excited right there was right there.
Speaker 4: It could have been me. Yea, I should have been
Speaker 4: you know, God, damn it, it should have I get real grizzled.
Speaker 4: That should have been me.
Speaker 2: Man, he did nothing deserves that.
Speaker 4: But yeah, this feels like him just trying to like
Speaker 4: get make the big story of the moment, like be
Speaker 4: about him or involve him in some way. And then
Speaker 4: he immediately got started. People started calling him a snitch
Speaker 4: and he had to like post all these things like
Speaker 4: we won't violate your privacy if you register your bag
Speaker 4: with us, like because you know how all companies like
Speaker 4: all they want is for you to like buy their
Speaker 4: product and then be like, and this is all of
Speaker 4: my information because we're friends now. So that was the
Speaker 4: immediate question is like, well, if he's tugging to the cops,
Speaker 4: then he must be he must be like providing the
Speaker 4: serial number. But like basically he called the cops, was like, hey,
Speaker 4: that's our backpack. They're like, great, is it registered? And
Speaker 4: he was like, I don't know if I can tell
Speaker 4: you that, and I don't think ultimately told them anything,
Speaker 4: and then had to like post to be like I'm
Speaker 4: not gonna snitch on you guys, I swear, but yeah,
Speaker 4: I don't know. I felt. I think people were immediately
Speaker 4: like this is CEO solidarity. And the comments, the menacing
Speaker 4: comments that came from people are like definitely like not
Speaker 4: the fun, the fun Luigi Mangioni memes. These are like
Speaker 4: y'all left with the wrong people, enjoy what is left
Speaker 4: of your company. Like it's just like sounds like twelve
Speaker 4: year olds trying to be like bad as in a
Speaker 4: movie closing sale event coming soon.
Speaker 2: The tertiary effect.
Speaker 3: Of Luigi Mangoni bringing out all these like tough.
Speaker 2: Guys, yeah, has been like a little depressing.
Speaker 3: I'll be honest, like, you know, just there's no none
Speaker 3: of y'all are killing a fucking CEO.
Speaker 2: Come on, let's be honest. I let the fuck out
Speaker 2: of here. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I do hope that actually that company starts to go
Speaker 1: under because these backpacks are so nice, like they're great,
Speaker 1: and they are like three hundred dollars. So if you
Speaker 1: can cut this in act like I don't know, like
Speaker 1: maybe seventy five percent off whatever you have to do
Speaker 1: to tank this company so I can get an everyday
Speaker 1: tote pack in a twenty liter bone colored I would
Speaker 1: love to do it because right now it's one seventy
Speaker 1: nine ninety five and I can't.
Speaker 4: By the way, a lot of people are like speculating
Speaker 4: about Luigi Mangioni's motives, this whole thing has been a
Speaker 4: very long piece of sponsored content for what Lake just said,
Speaker 4: It's all been a piece of spon con on the
Speaker 4: daily zeit geist to get people to drop their guard
Speaker 4: so we can tell them how fucking nice these backpacks are.
Speaker 4: Holy shit, they.
Speaker 1: Have added a funny money pocket in one.
Speaker 2: Of their their bags. So I don't know if that
Speaker 2: was you know.
Speaker 1: If they thought of that before, if that's a new thing.
Speaker 1: But wow, yeah, oh man, it's nice.
Speaker 3: That's the problem is any any political and political adjacent murderer,
Speaker 3: They're never what you want.
Speaker 4: As the very first thing I said, I was like this,
Speaker 4: you guys are going to be disappointed. This is not
Speaker 4: going to be who you hope it is.
Speaker 8: Yeah, at least the people it Yeah, the people were
Speaker 8: really and seem to continue to be really willing to
Speaker 8: overlook the differences in his case.
Speaker 3: All that being said, I do think everyone should just
Speaker 3: take a peek at the concept.
Speaker 2: Of jury nullification. If you're in New York City, just
Speaker 2: throw it out there, just a thought.
Speaker 4: All right, how do you guys feel about the Google
Speaker 4: I banned it? I'm sure you've been all over this Bend,
Speaker 4: Oregon's Google I banned it.
Speaker 3: I'm not, but I do have a pretty pretty pretty
Speaker 3: significant take, especially this part. There's a there's a portion
Speaker 3: where the city of Bend is complaining about how much
Speaker 3: it takes to.
Speaker 4: How hard it is to remove Google eyes. Yeah, so
Speaker 4: just real quick for anybody like in case you've been
Speaker 4: living under a rock that doesn't have googly eyes stuck
Speaker 4: to it. There is somebody going around sticking googly eyes
Speaker 4: on sculptures installed in Bend, Oregon, and they're being called
Speaker 4: the Google I bandit because nobody knows who's doing it
Speaker 4: and the city is boost and they're saying, I, yeah.
Speaker 3: I will just throw out all public art is only
Speaker 3: okay at absolute best.
Speaker 2: So who who gives a shit?
Speaker 3: And in what world does it cost fifteen hundred dollars
Speaker 3: to take plastic eyes off? How could you damage? To
Speaker 3: put it charitably, this fucking juvenile garbage that you call.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a it's a sculpture of a deer. Yeah,
Speaker 4: who cares, It's a sculpture of.
Speaker 1: Like a rock on top of a rock on top
Speaker 1: of one another.
Speaker 4: But I do have to shout out the makers of
Speaker 4: googly eyes, like I did not know that they had
Speaker 4: such size variants, that like you could get googly eyes
Speaker 4: that fit onto like a life sized deer sculpture and
Speaker 4: look like kind of comically big. They they look fun.
Speaker 4: I do like, just you know, my kids will stick
Speaker 4: googly eyes on things and around the house. It's very fun.
Speaker 2: It's really cute.
Speaker 4: I will say, contrary to the idea that you need
Speaker 4: a budget of one than five hundred dollars to remove
Speaker 4: the Google eyes from installations, those ships fall off themselves,
Speaker 4: like I have. Every Google eye that has ever been
Speaker 4: applied to anything in this household has ended up on
Speaker 4: the ground, stuck to the bottom of.
Speaker 2: My socks like that.
Speaker 4: They never stay where they're supposed to stay, like they
Speaker 4: are at best post it note quality glob o.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really dramestic terrorist. I'm sorry, go ahead, I'm
Speaker 1: just loving this picture, I guess would be what toy
Speaker 1: story six the villain just a sock with a thousand googly.
Speaker 4: Google ass on the bottom.
Speaker 1: Dirty sock, very very scary. That was a big part
Speaker 1: of everything everywhere, all at once. Yeah, this person's a hack,
Speaker 1: not an art.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Hacks on hack hack.
Speaker 1: Hack the worst type of crime that is criminally uncovered.
Speaker 1: It's not covered at all.
Speaker 4: So apparently this is like a thing, like a thing
Speaker 4: that some strange adults like have or you know, not strange,
Speaker 4: but like adults, very specific adults are kind of obsessed with.
Speaker 4: Earlier this year, some people in Boston campaigned to have
Speaker 4: googly eyes stuck on the front of trains kind of
Speaker 4: looks like a Pixar movie in which all the characters
Speaker 4: have been day drinking. But they're again, they're like the
Speaker 4: right size or to turn the front of this te
Speaker 4: train into a cartoon character.
Speaker 2: Oh that's a commuter rail.
Speaker 4: That's a commuter rail.
Speaker 1: Jack, that's the commuter rail. Dude, that's the commu rail. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the Purple line. That's the commuter rail. All right,
Speaker 1: I'll take you so August four.
Speaker 4: You're gonna beat the shit out of me for making
Speaker 4: a mistake because you're from Boston.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, obviously he's gonna beat the shit out of you.
Speaker 3: Peering and you made a mistake, Boston Strap, you're looking
Speaker 3: at something.
Speaker 4: I've had people try and fight me because I was
Speaker 4: watching a sporting event on a TV and they were
Speaker 4: like at the bar but below the TV, and they
Speaker 4: were just like, I think the fucking kid's looking at me.
Speaker 2: Bro, Have I ever told you guys this story in
Speaker 2: my twenties before?
Speaker 3: I wear eyeglasses now, but I got them very late
Speaker 3: in life, and when I lived in New York, I
Speaker 3: had a run in my twenties, you know, going out
Speaker 3: of bars where I was like constantly almost getting in fights.
Speaker 3: And then I realized when I was like twenty seven
Speaker 3: or something that I needed glasses. It's because I would
Speaker 3: sort of like stare squint at people like constantly. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and I was evidently starting shit. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: It was like a real thing. So it's just people
Speaker 3: randomly walking up heah. Yeah truly. Yes, Like for like
Speaker 3: a couple month period when I was like, I don't know,
Speaker 3: I probably twenty six, twenty seven somewhere, and I was like.
Speaker 2: What the fuck is happening?
Speaker 1: These amorphous blobs keep challenging Yeah, fights, It really was wild.
Speaker 3: I was just like, oh man, this is something's up.
Speaker 3: It didn't help that at the time, my roommate had
Speaker 3: started doing jiu jitsu, so he was like very up
Speaker 3: for a fight.
Speaker 4: So says, hey, man to you, and then your roommate
Speaker 4: just comes flying. Oh truly, it's just like completely parallel
Speaker 4: to the ground.
Speaker 2: I can't see. I just can't see. I can't see.
Speaker 2: I can't see. Yeah, So gay you get your eyes checked. Kids,
Speaker 2: All right, Well.
Speaker 4: We do need to hurry up and get to our
Speaker 4: curving segment. Craven the Hunter News, So this one hurts, guys,
Speaker 4: We've been looking forward to this one all seven years
Speaker 4: that we've had this podcast. Craven the Hunter featuring starring
Speaker 4: the actor from Badass.
Speaker 2: Was that the name of that movie?
Speaker 4: The like Young Kids Super kick Ass? That's the one
Speaker 4: kick Ass.
Speaker 1: And whose name is also Craven the Hunter. That is
Speaker 1: his real birth name.
Speaker 4: But this is the latest Sony movie set in the
Speaker 4: Spider Man universe that in no way features Spider Man. Again,
Speaker 4: I did not know that was the case. They do
Speaker 4: not advertise that. They're just like, obviously you know Craven
Speaker 4: the Hunter. I assumed it was like a video game character,
Speaker 4: but just like Morebs Madam Webb and Pandom. I guess
Speaker 4: is the one that worked out?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Tom Hardy.
Speaker 4: So that's the answer the question of like why do
Speaker 4: they keep doing this? Because Ven did well well enough
Speaker 4: to like expawn its own trilogy that did just okay,
Speaker 4: the third one, the second one did really well, the
Speaker 4: third one kind of tanked. Anyways, This is the first
Speaker 4: R rated entry in the franchise and it did not
Speaker 4: do well. The movie cost from its production budget was
Speaker 4: one hundred and ten million dollars. It made eleven million
Speaker 4: at the domestic box office just to like I think
Speaker 4: fifteen at the International in sixty countries, So not what
Speaker 4: they were looking for. And yeah, I don't know. So
Speaker 4: people were thinking they were gonna end this idea of
Speaker 4: doing like non Spider Man Spider Man Universe movies. The
Speaker 4: theory of why they do this has always been that
Speaker 4: they're doing it to keep their like they have something
Speaker 4: in the track where if they don't make a movie
Speaker 4: in this universe every X number of years, their right
Speaker 4: of ownership like lapses essentially, and so they have to,
Speaker 4: like on a technicality, keep making these. But I just
Speaker 4: want to read this section from one of the articles
Speaker 4: about this. They say, the RAPS reporting suggests that Sony
Speaker 4: might be pivoting away from this strategy of making these
Speaker 4: movies about background Spider Man characters without Spider Man and
Speaker 4: instead of trying to make more Spider Man movies with
Speaker 4: Spider Man in them. What whether these films would feature
Speaker 4: Tom holland Spidey having non MCU adventures or whether they
Speaker 4: would be something new is unknown at this point. That
Speaker 4: was an option this whole time, was to just be
Speaker 4: making Spider Man movies and they were like instead, they
Speaker 4: were like Craven the Hunter instead let's go with Craven
Speaker 4: the Hunter.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean it. If I think that,
Speaker 3: it feels like they were just like, well, since we
Speaker 3: had to loan Spider Man to the m CU, let's
Speaker 3: not confuse the issue.
Speaker 2: Be sure our movies have a tone that's not mc U.
Speaker 2: It's dark.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, let's make movies in that tone that nobody
Speaker 4: will like, thus ruining that tone for people.
Speaker 1: Go to the movies for the tone. I like just tone,
Speaker 1: characters writing movies for.
Speaker 4: The vibes mainly, that's true.
Speaker 2: I love they could have just like been. I love
Speaker 2: popcorn too, Yeah, I do likeorn.
Speaker 4: Yeah, what's your what's your candy that you go with?
Speaker 2: What's the popcorn? Are you not? Yea? Yeah I had.
Speaker 4: I knew that, Like I was asking me Andrew because
Speaker 4: that's disgusting.
Speaker 1: And I put some of bird's dust on it.
Speaker 5: Bird's custard dust. Hell yeah, bro, Yeah, I mean my
Speaker 5: problem is dusted. I got I got a fucking passed
Speaker 5: to Alamo Draft House. So my my actual go to
Speaker 5: is a fucking order of Monzarellistics.
Speaker 2: Okay, I like that too.
Speaker 3: It's they're not the highest quality on earth, but I've
Speaker 3: probably I would say confidently that in Los Angeles I
Speaker 3: have eaten more Alamo Draft House Monzerelistics than any other
Speaker 3: human being alive.
Speaker 2: I love that.
Speaker 4: I'll just say that sounds like that sounds like something
Speaker 4: you should use in your next conversation with that, letting go.
Speaker 2: Hey, kid, how many monzerelistics have you had? You know
Speaker 2: who you're talking to?
Speaker 4: Do you know who you're talking to?
Speaker 2: Los Angeles Premiere I.
Speaker 3: I kind of have this thing where I'm just like,
Speaker 3: because I actually kind of like the idea of Spider
Speaker 3: Man movies, and these are all sort of pitched to me,
Speaker 3: and the fact that I kind of, well, admittedly I
Speaker 3: do see most of them, but I haven't enjoyed any
Speaker 3: of them, is kind of a bummer. And I do
Speaker 3: think there's a little bit of like the same thing
Speaker 3: that happened to DC, which is they kind of got
Speaker 3: fucked by the success of the first one and misinterpreting
Speaker 3: what the secret sauce was. The secret sauce, of course,
Speaker 3: is marinera, Yes, but they thought it was just not
Speaker 3: being the MCU, and so they keep trying to replicate
Speaker 3: this thing that I personally think. I'm trying not to
Speaker 3: talk myself out of any potential jobs ever in my life.
Speaker 3: Kind of think that even though the executives are geniuses,
Speaker 3: they are geniuses in this instance only they may potentially
Speaker 3: have misinterpreted what it was that was bringing people to
Speaker 3: the movie theater.
Speaker 2: The Yeah, I have.
Speaker 1: Something fucking crazy to say. And Jack hasn't asked this yet.
Speaker 1: Jack has glazed over this multiple times, So I'll just
Speaker 1: fucking ask it. Fried cheese kurds and mozzarella sticks not
Speaker 1: that different as a product, correct, Yeah, And yet I've
Speaker 1: had Ranch served with fried cheese curds, and also this
Speaker 1: is more catch up. Let's like, let's dive past that.
Speaker 1: And also Marinara, of course never Ranch with mozzrella sticks.
Speaker 1: And I feel like we could very conceivably bring Ranch
Speaker 1: into the Mozzarelli sticks side.
Speaker 2: Who correct? Is that crazy thing? I think the difference
Speaker 2: is because cheese fried cheese curds have more acidity and
Speaker 2: a little more like them that I think, yeah, Rane,
Speaker 2: Whereas if you do mozzarella sticks and and Ranch, what
Speaker 2: are you doing? It's just too to Ye, there's a lot,
Speaker 2: it is a lot. Okay, good, I'm glad I asked it.
Speaker 2: That's why I asked and.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna want because invest in a in a restaurant
Speaker 4: concept that's just morella.
Speaker 1: We're gonna have a drone in the kitchen goes kitchen
Speaker 1: and drone.
Speaker 3: The craziest, the craziest condiment they have at Alba Draft
Speaker 3: House is with the chicken fingers.
Speaker 2: They just give your side a gravy, which is insane.
Speaker 4: Jesus, whoa sick.
Speaker 3: The first time I had I in the dark dipped
Speaker 3: a chicken finger in gravy and put in my mouth,
Speaker 3: I literally thought like I had covid. I was like, whatever,
Speaker 3: this tastes like this, this is not right.
Speaker 4: There is kind of a mucus equality to gravy that
Speaker 4: I'm gonna try and forget.
Speaker 2: A surprise gravy in the dark is like, you can't
Speaker 2: surprise gravy in the dark.
Speaker 4: Surprise, Yes, andrew T. What a pleasure having you on

Speaker 2: But it is great to have on while you're writing.
Speaker 2: It's it's really it's.

Speaker 4: hundred million dollar budget.
Speaker 2: Nine million in Boston.
Speaker 3: I think actually Taskmaster in the MCU is, isn't it

Speaker 1: Tompkins on Blue Sky, who might have been one of
Speaker 1: those people who suggested task Master in some medium for
Speaker 1: an hot almost certainly, and he said, imagine being the
Speaker 1: person who cancels Sesame Street and just living your life
Speaker 1: after that. So HBO and Max is not renewing Sesame Street.
Speaker 1: So Sesame Street doesn't have a home for new episodes.
Speaker 3: I believe they What about today it got I think

Speaker 4: I mean, you know I need the drones.
Speaker 3: This is you know, Kurmit's got a great samples. I'm
Speaker 3: sure he's gonna find work somewhere else. Like the important

Speaker 3: you know, your Bunson's and Beakers, like they don't have
Speaker 3: that many options, So like, really, like you got.
Speaker 2: A not in this. I think science is out thinking

Speaker 4: day where big Bird like had this big, carefully coordinated
Speaker 4: media campaign about like how big birds like a small
Speaker 4: bird Now and you feel small and like has kind
Speaker 4: of lost his meaning and context and it was like
Speaker 4: a mental health therefore, and then Elmo was like, Hey,

Speaker 4: at Elmo. Like Elmo just effortlessly took over the conversation.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 4: Couple tweets I've been enjoying at shut up. Mike Gain tweeted,
Speaker 4: if you told me the story of Jesus for the
Speaker 4: first time, when you got to the crucifixion, I would
Speaker 4: be certain that he was going to use his powers
Speaker 4: as a carpenter to get out of it. That's why
Speaker 4: it must have been included. And then Corolene Jones Corolene
Speaker 4: x Maria tweeted, why did I just watch a ten
Speaker 4: minute analysis of the Wicked movie by Ben Shapiro? And
Speaker 4: also why is he kind of cooking? He needs to
Speaker 4: give up all right, drifting embraces blatant bisexuality, pivot into
Speaker 4: musical theater commentary because it's clearly his true passionate passion
Speaker 4: and I'm being so serious and she links off to
Speaker 4: a two minute video of Ben Shapiro just having the
Speaker 4: most impassioned and like serious takes about Wicked and the
Speaker 4: performances they're in and like just like a theater critics
Speaker 4: take on Wicked. Yeah, it's very interesting.
Speaker 3: I not clearly a failed theater kid that when Nazi

Speaker 6: All right, I got a pull one out of my ass.
Speaker 6: Yeah all right, well, okay, I have one. I think
Speaker 6: this song came across my timeline a minute ago, and
Speaker 6: it's so cinematic and dreamy. I could immediately picture film
Speaker 6: scenes in my head to this all day.
Speaker 2: This song is called rok Ki Ranie appreciate.
Speaker 6: It, which literally means queen of the night in Urdu,
Speaker 6: but it's also the name of a type of jasmine flower.
Speaker 6: It's apparently about a person who's allure, magnetism and charisma
Speaker 6: floats through a beautiful evening garden party. According to the
Speaker 6: songwriter a rouge off Top, I hope I'm pronouncing that correctly,
Speaker 6: and you can definitely feel that vibe in every note.
Speaker 2: So check out this song.
Speaker 6: This is called Rakki Rani by a rouge off Top
Speaker 6: and you can find that in the footnotes footnotes.
Speaker 4: It's not a mistake that that charisma, this is the
Speaker 4: charisma of that song came to your mind when we
Speaker 4: had Blake Westler.
Speaker 6: No, Andrew, if you weren't going to say it, we were, Yeah,
Speaker 6: it's just oozing out of there.
Speaker 4: You guys have garden party energy, just like a person
Speaker 4: who's drifting through a garden party, absolutely killing it.
