Speaker 1: blath uh. That is courtesy of Fat Andrew on the
Speaker 1: discord Orange Crush by r em Big Big Rim Fan Grown.
Speaker 1: They were the first cool music band that I listened to,
Speaker 1: and you can tell it worked out and made me
Speaker 1: cool because I call them music band, like like a
Speaker 1: real cool kiss. And I'm thrilled to be joined as
Speaker 1: always by my co host mister Miles Grass.
Speaker 2: Yes, the LA Lakers original Blajian Miles Gray coming to
Speaker 2: the mic. Shout out to the Los Angeles Rakers. As
Speaker 2: of this recording, we are up to one. Although the
Speaker 2: game Game four has happened. We'll see, we'll see what
Speaker 2: happened have happened in that game, But I will say this,
Speaker 2: the response of Golden State fans has been really something
Speaker 2: to see. There was a guy, I don't know if
Speaker 2: you saw this clip at the Staples Center when we
Speaker 2: were blowing their entire back end out. He was going
Speaker 2: up and down the stands as Staples I will cause Staples.
Speaker 1: And I don't reckon. I don't know crypto whatever Doc
Speaker 1: Krreen is this span.
Speaker 2: This Warrior's fan was going up down the aisles holding
Speaker 2: up a four, being like one, two, three, four rings,
Speaker 2: four rings and everyone starts going seventeen seventeen, you know
Speaker 2: what you're talking about?
Speaker 1: And he was like, okay, I got it. Was he
Speaker 1: like a straw man hired by the Lakers to just
Speaker 1: get publicly that it like a.
Speaker 2: He did have the vibe of like when they have
Speaker 2: plants for like the audience cam where they're like, whoa,
Speaker 2: this guy's doing a dance battle against the mascot.
Speaker 1: He's a plan.
Speaker 2: It did have kind of like they're like, there's no
Speaker 2: way you think four is greater than seventeen, or you
Speaker 2: are just such a new fan with the tags still
Speaker 2: on your jersey that only occurred to you that maybe
Speaker 2: four was the most somebody ever won in this league.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. Also, his wig is
Speaker 1: not convincing. Just up there. I've seen that guy from
Speaker 1: the ground block.
Speaker 2: Side note, I have my in laws there in town.
Speaker 2: I got them on the Jalen Rose Got fake Hair
Speaker 2: conspiracy bandwagon.
Speaker 1: Now, yeah, it can't all be right. We're all in
Speaker 1: agreement that it can't all be fake. It's just I
Speaker 1: don't know. It could be mixed medium fake hair. I
Speaker 1: don't see.
Speaker 2: And this is the part I don't like because before
Speaker 2: I held him up as the strongest hairline of all time,
Speaker 2: and now I don't like that we're wobbling in the
Speaker 2: perception of it.
Speaker 1: That's what really hurts me more than whether or not
Speaker 1: he is faking the hairline. I think it's like a
Speaker 1: situation like the Olympic athletes are the greatest athletes in
Speaker 1: the world, and then they use performance enhancing drugs because
Speaker 1: to like, once all the attention is on you and
Speaker 1: there's competition from other people with the greatest hair in
Speaker 1: the world, then he feels like he has to keep
Speaker 1: up with impossible standards. Would be my guess.
Speaker 2: It was just funny how cook they went from like
Speaker 2: the Internet there's this dumb conspiracy theory that this guy
Speaker 2: got a fake hairline. They're like, oh really, They're like,
Speaker 2: it is pretty strong, and then they're like, five minutes in,
Speaker 2: is just turning to I don't know, maybe you're right.
Speaker 2: I was like, it's that easy to maybe spread misinformation
Speaker 2: out there.
Speaker 1: Well, Miles, we are thrilled to be joined in our
Speaker 1: third seat by a brilliant and talented podcast producer, e
Speaker 1: sports commentator guy on Twitch, Yeah DJ and music producer,

Speaker 2: brought down a star destroyer with your hands.
Speaker 3: Damn. It was pretty good.
Speaker 1: That was Yeah. I think you had to mash the
Speaker 1: buttons to do that. But anyway, parenting is just a
Speaker 1: long process of withholding things that they would like too much, right,
Speaker 1: they don't.
Speaker 2: They don't lose the plot That Avatar too, I feel like,
Speaker 2: would just destroy our ability to get him.

Speaker 3: just you know it is a. I got got a
Speaker 3: cup of tea right here. I recently switched my caffeine
Speaker 3: intake to kind of like trick my body into being
Speaker 3: more awoken by the caffeine. I think I'm just too
Speaker 3: used to coffee at this point. Like I was switching
Speaker 3: beans every month, and then I was like, let me
Speaker 3: just switch it up to tea again and see if
Speaker 3: that makes a difference.
Speaker 2: You're doing this shit like people who smoke weed, Dude, Like, man,
Speaker 2: I'm just smoking too many indicas.
Speaker 1: Man, let me say teva really quick. That might knock
Speaker 1: something and loose?
Speaker 2: Is there?
Speaker 1: Like are there like sea breaks like people do tea breaks.
Speaker 3: I'm sure there are. I'm just doing I simply cannot.
Speaker 3: So I'm just switching up the caffeine to see if
Speaker 3: it makes a difference. This is before I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 3: I was recently at Smart and Final and I saw
Speaker 3: or no, not Smart and Final. I was somewhere else,
Speaker 3: but I saw the old Kirk Siggy cold Bruce with
Speaker 3: that panther on the can. That's kind of for I
Speaker 3: think I was for a half second, I was like,
Speaker 3: I might have to cop. Do I do it to him?
Speaker 3: I might have to cop.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're like, I had to do it to him,
Speaker 2: have uncontrollable caffeine and do his diarrhea destroy my insides?
Speaker 3: But damn would I be awake?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I found like a like a loose can I had
Speaker 2: I was sitting on and it wasn't great.
Speaker 1: It had been like years had passed since I was
Speaker 1: supposed to drink it. But when I bore that thing out,
Speaker 1: it is opaque solid.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no seeing through that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, opacity one of the one of the signs that
Speaker 1: you're fucking with a strong, cold brow. All right, Daniel,
Speaker 1: we're going to get to know you a little bit
Speaker 1: better in a moment. First, we are going to tell
Speaker 1: the listener to a couple of the things that we're
Speaker 1: talking about. We got some new details, a new theory
Speaker 1: on what happened to Tucker Carlson as he is like
Speaker 1: threatening to launch his Elon Musk collab his own network.
Speaker 1: There there's some more behind the scenes ship. This one
Speaker 1: kind of boring and about what it seems true because
Speaker 1: it's so boring. It's just like fucked with the wrong
Speaker 1: hr lady basically, yeah, so don't comfort the people in
Speaker 1: the C suite. It is. It is very like succession asque.
Speaker 2: Yes, like Katerina I was saying, like Katerina who was
Speaker 2: running comms for Ways Star Whiteco.
Speaker 1: She seemed impervious to the kill list because.
Speaker 2: That's what these comms people do, like they help keep
Speaker 2: your evil empire like from the outside looking half decent.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and nowhere every single body is veried. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: yea ye yah yeah yeah yeah yeah. So yeah, it
Speaker 1: ain't gonna be a us. We'll talk about that. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about teacher pay. We will talk about the way
Speaker 1: that pop culture is cycling back to the year nineteen
Speaker 1: eighty nine in a number of ways, Like I don't
Speaker 1: know that it can be coincidental, the number of ways
Speaker 1: that it's just like they it feels like everyone in
Speaker 1: Hollywood two years ago just were like, Okay, so nineteen
Speaker 1: eighty nine, right, nineteen eight nine, We're gonna go just
Speaker 1: make everything cool, remake everything from the year nineteen eighty nine,
Speaker 1: do it again, and it's all coming out at the
Speaker 1: same time. So all that plenty more. But first, Dan,
Speaker 1: we do like to ask our guests, as you may know,
Speaker 1: what is something from your search history?
Speaker 3: All right, I'm gonna take you guys on a journey
Speaker 3: here because the search history that I have here is
Speaker 3: the end of my journey. But I want to see
Speaker 3: if you guys can get there with me. So I'm
Speaker 3: going to sing you a tune right now, and I
Speaker 3: want you to tell me if you know it off
Speaker 3: the top of your head. Okay, yeah, mm hmm boo
Speaker 3: do do do do Do Do Do Do doo. Baby Elephant
Speaker 3: Walk fucking nailed that ship, well done. I had that
Speaker 3: tune stuck in my head the other day, couldn't remember
Speaker 3: what it was called.
Speaker 2: And so Dan podcast, okay, with nothing to do except
Speaker 2: no useless shit like that song is.
Speaker 1: Called baby Elephant Walk.
Speaker 3: Now, now, not to call you out, but Jack, did
Speaker 3: you know that off the top of your head?
Speaker 1: No? No, no, I I was getting there. I was
Speaker 1: like the first step on a one hundred step journey
Speaker 1: to getting there, and I was not all the way there.
Speaker 3: So here's the here's the journey I took via Google
Speaker 3: search to find that song. Yeah, classic Honky tonk type
Speaker 3: songs wrong honky talk. I don't think of that as
Speaker 3: exactly wrong. That classic song that has flute and horns
Speaker 3: also wrong. Song from Austin Powers was not in that movie.
Speaker 3: Now Here's where I took a lot. I totally thought
Speaker 3: it was though. I was like, yeah, that's right. That
Speaker 3: was a song walking through city. Now in my head,
Speaker 3: I was like, I feel like walk is in the
Speaker 3: name of the song or something like that, and I
Speaker 3: was right, I was close. But song walking through City
Speaker 3: not helpful. And then we get to my actual search
Speaker 3: Shazam you can sing into because I was so tired
Speaker 3: of doing this bullshit that I was like, I just
Speaker 3: have to solve this by someone telling me what it is,
Speaker 3: and Shazam is insufficient for that. Now, did you guys
Speaker 3: know that the Google app will let you sing into
Speaker 3: it and it will find the song.
Speaker 1: Wow? So it worked.
Speaker 3: It worked. I sang it to Google and the first
Speaker 3: thing that came up baby Elephant Walk by Henry Mancini.
Speaker 3: There it is. What humbled me a.
Speaker 4: Little bit was that it said, act you're a little
Speaker 4: twelve percent twelve percent. I was like, I mean, I
Speaker 4: appreciate you getting but you did not have to drag
Speaker 4: me like that twelve.
Speaker 1: You're kind of all over the place, You're all over
Speaker 1: the map here with your pitch. But I can tell
Speaker 1: that this is what you're doing. Just don't do that
Speaker 1: in front of anybody my note. Oh yeah, I think
Speaker 1: my man did the pink Panther theme too.
Speaker 3: Oh oh wow, that's right. Yeah, good call. So yeah, shazam,
Speaker 3: you can sing into and gang. If you're like me
Speaker 3: and you have a tune stuck in your head, just
Speaker 3: pull up that baby girl Google and sing right into
Speaker 3: her and then boom, you got.
Speaker 1: Yourself baby baby walk.
Speaker 2: You could have just called me man. You could have
Speaker 2: just called me man. No, I could You're right, I
Speaker 2: could have, And maybe that's what I'll do from now
Speaker 2: on instead of very good to Google. So there was
Speaker 2: a dragon when I like was so into those like
Speaker 2: just songs that you hear all the time but didn't
Speaker 2: know what they were called. And like, well, back in
Speaker 2: the early days of iTunes, I had a playlist with
Speaker 2: all like those those weird tracks on there. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 2: and a lot of Herb Albert tracks around there too,
Speaker 2: because like there's the songs you kind of hear.
Speaker 1: Like, wait, what is this one?
Speaker 2: What are some of those Herb Albert like in the
Speaker 2: Tiajuana Brass, like Zorba the Greek.
Speaker 1: Do you want to tax? I feel like I'm in that. Uh.
Speaker 1: I think you should leave sketch with Heightacre oh Man.
Speaker 1: Also do with ak also do the the thing.
Speaker 2: That is from Biggie Biggie Biggie Hypnotized Rise that sample,
Speaker 2: Uh huh that's Herb Alpert, that's Herb Albert.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's cool. Anyway, I know that I'm I'm yeah.
Speaker 2: I was really into that kind of s And when
Speaker 2: you said song with horns and the flude, I said
Speaker 2: the intro of Tears of a Clown. They anyway got
Speaker 2: smoky on the brain?
Speaker 1: Where is that song from the Baby Elephant Walk?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 1: Where where would people have recognized it?
Speaker 3: When I looked it up, it was actually in an
Speaker 3: episode of The Simpsons, in the Dance and Homer episode. Yeah,
Speaker 3: but it was from some it was it was written
Speaker 3: for some movie that I can't remember right now, because
Speaker 3: when I looked it up, I saw the Homer thing
Speaker 3: and I was like, that's.
Speaker 1: Where I must have remembered it from Hatari, the nineteen
Speaker 1: sixty two film.
Speaker 3: There you Go that I undoubtedly have seen hundreds of times. No, yeah,
Speaker 3: I have not.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I knew it from like The Simpsons
Speaker 2: and then just it being like throwaway music that people use.
Speaker 5: For like comedic bits exactly okay that and Spanish fille
Speaker 5: per okay, yeah, I know that one.
Speaker 1: That's like the whole music when they like when like
Speaker 1: something goes wrong in the show and then they like to.
Speaker 3: Like yeah exactly, yeah, yeah, bingo.
Speaker 1: All right, what is something you think is overrated?
Speaker 3: Overrated?
Speaker 1: By the way, your search history could be an entire podcast.
Speaker 3: I appreciate that thing.
Speaker 1: Nobody would listen to it. It would be it could
Speaker 1: be you could have called you could have called me man,
Speaker 1: you could have just you could have.
Speaker 3: My overrated is special seasonings. And what I mean by
Speaker 3: that is having, you know, a a spice drawer full
Speaker 3: of things that are like your like crazy barbecue rubs
Speaker 3: or these like you know, wild you know, flavored salts
Speaker 3: and stuff like that. And the only reason I say
Speaker 3: that is not because it's not useful to spice up
Speaker 3: your food. It's that all of those seasonings are simply
Speaker 3: combination of seasonings you probably already have in your spice drawer,
Speaker 3: Like one of the things that I made recently was
Speaker 3: my own Cajun seasoning. Because it's like five ingredients and
Speaker 3: you have all of them. It's not that I don't
Speaker 3: want to go and buy cage and seasoning or something.
Speaker 3: It's just that what I have all the shit already, like,
Speaker 3: why not just make it? So I had, I had
Speaker 3: I encourage you look at the ingredients on the back
Speaker 3: of some of your spices and be like, oh damn,
Speaker 3: I literally holding on to this, which is just these
Speaker 3: five things that I already have in my spicetra. Right,
Speaker 3: just do that. Do that and save A save yourself
Speaker 3: some money, and b they're probably higher quality ingredients when
Speaker 3: you're getting them as the individual ingredient itself versus getting
Speaker 3: them in some like kngeal whatever.
Speaker 1: You're like sawdustin to fill up the exactly exactly filled
Speaker 1: the bottle, a little.
Speaker 2: Ing spice apothec are just cooking. You're mixing it up,
Speaker 2: mixing and blending on your own. Wait so what Wait,
Speaker 2: so you'll so you won't buy specialty spices. Now you're
Speaker 2: just saying I can cook up my own, or you're
Speaker 2: just saying if you ever feel like you have to
Speaker 2: go out and buy it, first check what it is,
Speaker 2: because chances are you might you might be able to
Speaker 2: just make that shit on your own.
Speaker 3: I'd say it's I'd say it's more column B, but
Speaker 3: certainly a little bit of column A. I mean, there's
Speaker 3: definitely some something that we had in our spice rack
Speaker 3: where I was like, why, I feel like we probably
Speaker 3: could have made this. And then we were just, you know,
Speaker 3: as we're looking up recipes and whatnot, somebody had a
Speaker 3: homemade cage in the seasoning and I was like, this
Speaker 3: is bullshit. We have every single one of these things.
Speaker 3: Let's just make it.
Speaker 2: And it's fire garlic, paprika, cayenne, salt, pepper, cooking onion
Speaker 2: powder time.
Speaker 1: You know, OKAYO is googling like an ingredient and then
Speaker 1: replacement and then just finding out what the closest thing
Speaker 1: is to that because I don't have that ingredient or
Speaker 1: it's it's behind thirty layers of old spices exactly, and
Speaker 1: not the cool, good smelling old spice that I wear
Speaker 1: every day, but the old spices that after shave I
Speaker 1: get from crowd, my crowd, my spice rack. Have you
Speaker 1: seen people? Have you seen the old spice in the
Speaker 1: bottle the like old time you want. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, recently, I thought it was a joke and I
Speaker 2: was like, oh, that's right, that's how this ship started.
Speaker 1: And I was like, Okay. In my mind, I thought
Speaker 1: this was a frank on me.
Speaker 2: They're the deodorant company that do those weird ass commercials,
Speaker 2: not old like this ship was old.
Speaker 1: Spice is old spice. It had four more l's in
Speaker 1: the label. Oh no spice. Yeah.
Speaker 3: What is something you think is underrated? This is a
Speaker 3: boring old head answer, But flossing. I've been flossing every
Speaker 3: day and it feels great. Literally, not only does my
Speaker 3: mouth smell better, it feels better. And it's something that
Speaker 3: I underrated for way too long, thinking it was something
Speaker 3: that I had to do for a week before I
Speaker 3: went to the dentist. So that exactly. Yes, the dancing,
Speaker 3: thank you, I thought you meant flossing like that. Yeah,
Speaker 3: exactly that. Yeah, underrated under Fortnite dances. Yeah, shout shout
Speaker 3: out Donald, shoutout Donald on the O G got ripped off?
Speaker 3: Yeah exactly. You know he never complains about that anyway. Yeah,
Speaker 3: flossing is something that I do every day now and
Speaker 3: I don't regret it, and I'll never go back because
Speaker 3: it feels fucking great, and I recommend that everybody do it.
Speaker 2: Yoh, you know what I started doing? What tongue scrape
Speaker 2: is huge? The andrew that ship, I was like, man,
Speaker 2: I've been abusing my fucking mouth, like not getting at
Speaker 2: it with this tongue scraper that do you have?
Speaker 3: Do you have a tongue scraper or yeah?
Speaker 2: I got one that's like I have a I have
Speaker 2: a terrible gag reflex, like if I like, if I
Speaker 2: even try and brush my mols.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's how you know it's working. That's how you
Speaker 1: know you're working hard enough to get your mouth feeling
Speaker 1: good is when you almost throw up.
Speaker 2: But I have one that's like a like a stainless
Speaker 2: steel like ring like onst.
Speaker 1: You just put your tongueing and he comes right off. U. Man,
Speaker 1: that ship that comes off of there not what do
Speaker 1: we call it? I don't know? Small Yeah, yea from
Speaker 1: the football team and they're playing the Super.
Speaker 2: Taking no such team as when you get that spungo
Speaker 2: off your tongue, Man, spungo off your tongue, go and
Speaker 2: it's all bets are off.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the good news and bad news about flossing is
Speaker 1: that like once you start doing it regularly and no
Speaker 1: longer is pretty like things stopped coming out as exactly
Speaker 1: exactly and you stopped like bleeding, which I had. Now
Speaker 1: I'm like, am I even really flossing?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 1: Am I? Am I really earning the clean guns that
Speaker 1: I have been working for here? But I I too recently,
Speaker 1: like within the last year, started flossing every day. It's
Speaker 1: straight game changer, dude. I gotta tell.
Speaker 3: You, I'm not gonna lie. The high I got with
Speaker 3: my dental hygienis went, wow, so are you flossing more often?
Speaker 1: Yes, Queen.
Speaker 3: I walked outside. It was like there was a parade
Speaker 3: for me down the street. They were all like, who's.
Speaker 1: The man of them?
Speaker 3: There's wedded a three.
Speaker 1: And I will not talk about the checking with my
Speaker 1: dental hygienis that got me to.
Speaker 2: Start flossing every day because god, oh right, because they
Speaker 2: fell back and hit their head right.
Speaker 1: It's we are currently in litigation, so we're not going
Speaker 1: to talk about. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean, it is a landmark case that would define
Speaker 2: like what is actual, like you know, like a salt,
Speaker 2: like yeah, through your own negligence that is a salt
Speaker 2: really Okay.
Speaker 1: All right, the less said about that, the better. Let's
Speaker 1: take a quick break and we will be off your tongue, spungo,
Speaker 1: off your tongue.
Speaker 3: Go.
Speaker 1: The other good thing about the tongue scrapers are also
Speaker 1: the makeshift shaver. When my kids want to shave with me,
Speaker 1: Like when I'm shaving, they want to have like a
Speaker 1: little plastic one. Yeah, the little plastic one, and so
Speaker 1: they pretend like they're shaving with that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's fun. That's fun.
Speaker 1: And then the tongue scraper tastes like ship for a
Speaker 1: couple couple of times, but then their cheeks smell like ship.
Speaker 1: Horrible weird down the side of that face. Oh man,
Speaker 1: I can't even kiss my kids. Disgusting. Again, the gag reflex.
Speaker 1: That's how you know the love is working, Yes, when
Speaker 1: you have to get a little gag reflex before you
Speaker 1: give them a kiss. All right, let's take a quick break.
Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're back and tucker the people.
Speaker 1: This is like the Zapruder films of firing. Like we're
Speaker 1: just adding little blocks. Yeah, yeah, we didn't know, said
Speaker 1: like a real JFK assassination expert. The Zapruder films of fire.
Speaker 1: There's there's a lot of theories as to what happened here,
Speaker 1: and I don't know. So Rolling Stone gave us the
Speaker 1: the genre of this one is succession episode. Yeah, they've
Speaker 1: been scratching.
Speaker 2: We've been like, we've been just trying to figure out
Speaker 2: what has been going when the firing, because you know,
Speaker 2: we're like, it couldn't be because he was racist in private,
Speaker 2: that's what to do, and then or that he's like
Speaker 2: a misogynistic piece of shit. I'm like, that's pretty much
Speaker 2: most on air talent at the network from past to present.
Speaker 2: But yeah, this Rolling Stone piece a little more context,
Speaker 2: a little more texture. It sounds like Tucker was feeling
Speaker 2: himself since his ratings were so high through the roof
Speaker 2: and that even with like the occasional advertiser exodus, he
Speaker 2: was still like top dog at the network. And I
Speaker 2: guess he thought he was basically Fox News himself and
Speaker 2: that anyone that got in the way, like in his way,
Speaker 2: would lose. And his biggest beef well at the network
Speaker 2: was with the head of communications for Fox, this woman
Speaker 2: named Irena Briganti, and she has been down with Fox
Speaker 2: for a minute and has been doing all the dirty
Speaker 2: work of like coming at reporters who report unflattering shit
Speaker 2: about the network, blacklisting certain journalists even if they like
Speaker 2: said one thing wrong about Fox, like oh, you'll never
Speaker 2: work for us ever, Like I keep a list.
Speaker 1: She was Roger Ayle's.
Speaker 2: Mouthpiece, okay, and like continued after his ouster and like
Speaker 2: when you think about like what again, like with succession
Speaker 2: being loosely based off of you know, the Murdochs, like this,
Speaker 2: it sounds like this person is Katerina okay, like the
Speaker 2: like and Katerina is not maybe as aggressive as this
Speaker 2: one when Irena Burganti is, but apparently like one of
Speaker 2: those people who knows everything about the company, has done
Speaker 2: everything to keep the company, like you know, in decent
Speaker 2: shape in the press, and it's been a very loyal servant.
Speaker 2: And I guess due to her loyalty to the Murdochs
Speaker 2: and her record of service, she's basically unfuck with able
Speaker 2: at the network. Just like it, like there's like no
Speaker 2: way because this is the person who cleans up all
Speaker 2: the messes, like when Hannity fucks up, She's got to
Speaker 2: clean the messes when O'Reilly's fucking up. She's got to
Speaker 2: clean the messes. That's what she does, and she gets
Speaker 2: in front of all these pieces and all that. So
Speaker 2: because of that, I guess Tucker thought that she was
Speaker 2: food and figured he could make a case for, you know,
Speaker 2: for her being shown the door. And this is just
Speaker 2: from this Rolling Stone piece quote. The sources say Carlson
Speaker 2: made his case to Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott, Fox's
Speaker 2: chief legal officer, yet Dan Murdoch, family air in Foxcorp
Speaker 2: CEO Lachlan Murdoch, and even other Fox News personalities such
Speaker 2: as Sean Hannity. Basically Carls quote. Carlson argued Berganty spent
Speaker 2: too much time badgering on air talent and in the
Speaker 2: channel's personnel, and that she was generally incompetent and mean spirited,
Speaker 2: and that she regularly engaged in dirty tricks against him
Speaker 2: and other hosts and contributors. One current Fox source with
Speaker 2: knowledge of the matter described the Carlson Burganty feud as
Speaker 2: an intra network death match. Damn so damn So it
Speaker 2: sounds like again, like I said, the comms person's like, yo, Tucker,
Speaker 2: you like, go easy with the with all this wild stuff.
Speaker 2: We're losing advertisers or like like we need to figure
Speaker 2: out what's going on. He basically took these kinds of
Speaker 2: words from the person's like I'm the one who has
Speaker 2: to clean up the fucking mess, so can you work
Speaker 2: with me here?
Speaker 1: And he's like, I don't like her. Yeah, she wasn't
Speaker 1: nice about the mess I made her clean up. She's
Speaker 1: kind of sighed under her breath. He's just like one
Speaker 1: of the one of those people who's never happy, Like yeah,
Speaker 1: he's got that Trump thing where he's just not happy
Speaker 1: unless he's like fucking with somebody or right, you know,
Speaker 1: in a fight of some sort that is helping him,
Speaker 1: you know, feel better about Like, well, I'm okay, so
Speaker 1: I'm the biggest dog at the network, right, but like,
Speaker 1: how do I prove? How do I like keep getting
Speaker 1: wins for my ego? You know?
Speaker 3: I mean that seems like the next like logical step
Speaker 3: if you are if you are like beaten aka fired
Speaker 3: from the network, your next fight is with who has
Speaker 3: quote unquote betrayed you. And so he's just like trying
Speaker 3: to take it out as much as pot But I'm guessing,
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, but.
Speaker 2: He's been trying to do this since twenty twenty. Apparently
Speaker 2: that's fuck trying to get her fired and there and
Speaker 2: apparently everyone who's who works at the company and knows
Speaker 2: anything was like, bro, Tucker, you you don't want you
Speaker 2: don't want me smoke. Another person who spoke anonymously the
Speaker 2: Rolling Stone said quote, he really thought he was going
Speaker 2: to make a change, And I kind of shook my head.
Speaker 2: It was such a terrible idea. It was such a
Speaker 2: clear suicide mission. But then again, at the time, I
Speaker 2: guess he thought he was big enough to do anything.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's perfect that I was a former Fox News talent.
Speaker 3: Talent.
Speaker 2: Yeah, someone knows, Oh, you can't come for her. Yeah, no, bro,
Speaker 2: that's that's why would you do that? So, knowing that
Speaker 2: it's not the whole story, but it definitely like now
Speaker 2: you add up, it's like, oh, he's got like he's
Speaker 2: he's bringing these lawsuits because of his own behavior on
Speaker 2: the on the on the set obviously, like his comments
Speaker 2: just lead to more and more like advertiser difficulty, and
Speaker 2: he's trying to come for the neck of the comms
Speaker 2: director who knows where everybody is buried. Yeah, when you like,
Speaker 2: I can't imagine the person who had to clean up
Speaker 2: the messes in the Roger Ayles era and beyond has
Speaker 2: little insight into the mess that we don't even know about.
Speaker 2: Yeah at Fox. So yeah, at the end of the day,
Speaker 2: we're like, well, she's sitting on more information than Tucker
Speaker 2: outwardly like exposes himself for so I think we're gonna
Speaker 2: go with her. But again, he is pissed, and like
Speaker 2: you were saying at the top, Jack, there's like this
Speaker 2: Axios piece where that says like we don't know what
Speaker 2: exactly is going on, but apparently him and Elon have
Speaker 2: had some kind of conversation about potentially working together without
Speaker 2: any specifics.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean that tracks Elon is just such a sucker.
Speaker 3: He's gonna try and work with anybody who's down to work.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but I mean also someone who's like on
Speaker 2: this same sort of level of like, man, aren't these
Speaker 2: like woke people just like so annoying. It's talking about
Speaker 2: like pay people of fair wage or like don't be
Speaker 2: racist at your factory, Like I'm sick of this, right,
Speaker 2: And yeah, who better than the guy who's like this
Speaker 2: is how white men fight honorably? Yeah, fucking outline in
Speaker 2: that fight.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I feel like they're gonna create like a
Speaker 1: weird like it just my guess would be Tucker's next
Speaker 1: move is like I'm moving to Austin and we're gonna
Speaker 1: like set up shop in Austin with like, you know,
Speaker 1: create the weird conservative Hollywood Joe Rogan, but in.
Speaker 3: The studio next door. Exactly right.
Speaker 1: But here's like I'm curious, now, like what what the
Speaker 1: evolution of the network's gonna be, right, because since Tucker left,
Speaker 1: the ratings have been bad. Yeah, and so they need
Speaker 1: That's like.
Speaker 2: Basically when people come to your buffet for the roast
Speaker 2: beef carving station, right and that shit's gone, people are
Speaker 2: gonna come. They want their where's the red meat at?
Speaker 3: You're telling me holding him up?
Speaker 2: I mean, he's like he's holding his own in the
Speaker 2: late night part. But that's a huge hole that is
Speaker 2: left from Tucker Carlson not being there that I'm sure
Speaker 2: they're gonna find someone who's like they're probably just gonna
Speaker 2: hook chat, GPT up to mind com or something and
Speaker 2: be like, yeah, do your thing, yeah, saving money does.
Speaker 1: I think that's one of the things that's intriguing is
Speaker 1: the like the decision didn't make sense, so like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's gonna hurt their ratings kind of transparently from the
Speaker 1: moment that they made it. He's their most popular person.
Speaker 1: They didn't have like a replacement that made any sense
Speaker 1: ready to go, So it's yeah, they were just like that.
Speaker 1: That's why, like all of this, like these are all
Speaker 1: things that make sense for a firing, but for this
Speaker 1: firing where it was like we got to get this
Speaker 1: done like post haste immediately. I think there's I it'll
Speaker 1: be interesting to see as details emerge about like what
Speaker 1: happened at the dinner between Tucker Carlson, Rupert Murdoch then
Speaker 1: fiance who the day after the dinner they called it
Speaker 1: off and who was like Tucker Carlson's biggest fan. Like
Speaker 1: that feels like there was some personal animosity there. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like, oh, you're trying to come for Arena
Speaker 2: Briganti and my fiance exactly.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no.
Speaker 1: Nope, time to clip your wings or not today.
Speaker 2: But yeah, apparently there was another thing that like Newsmax
Speaker 2: was offering him more money than Fox to get him
Speaker 2: to go over to Newsmax, and Fox offered him twenty
Speaker 2: million dollars to do nothing. Wow, twenty million a year
Speaker 2: I think for the rest of his kind, Like, how
Speaker 2: about this, we'll pay him just.
Speaker 1: If they tried to like fire like fire him, but
Speaker 1: also keep him under contract. Like so there's some kind of.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if it was to deal with
Speaker 2: like whatever was left in his contract, but apparently there's
Speaker 2: an offer of twenty million dollars to not work like.
Speaker 3: A non com just side post clause or something. Yeah,
Speaker 3: huh is that I mean, is that whole even fillable?
Speaker 3: Like is there someone as hateful that they're like, yep,
Speaker 3: this is exactly who we're going to put in there.
Speaker 3: Or do you think this signal is like an entire
Speaker 3: direct swing in the kind of content they're even going
Speaker 3: to try to put in that slot they.
Speaker 1: Think Jesse Waters would be.
Speaker 2: My guess, Jesse Waters is the most like he's the
Speaker 2: most available to just slip into that and has absolutely
Speaker 2: no problem saying the most vile, disturbing non sense ever. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Or it's like do they do the thing where it's like, hey,
Speaker 2: maybe we go to the minors and go to podcasting.
Speaker 2: Let's see what kind of right wing podcasters we can
Speaker 2: call up to the you know, yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't think you're wrong. Arena Brigante is going to
Speaker 1: like what we've been saying. No, we got to take
Speaker 1: our names out of the rounding miles unfortunately.
Speaker 2: All right, that's fine, that's fine, I mean whatever. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Like y J said, I don't care. I don't care,
Speaker 2: go ahead and try and break I don't break my
Speaker 2: try and break my glass.
Speaker 3: They won't.
Speaker 1: You can't.
Speaker 3: You can't.
Speaker 1: You can't you pray, Come on, go ahead and break
Speaker 1: you can't. I'm gonna break them right, go ahead, I
Speaker 1: don't care. All right. Inside it is teacher Appreciation week.
Speaker 1: Last week was teacher Appreciation Day, and oh it's just
Speaker 1: is it there week? Now? There there's I think I
Speaker 1: think it's like at my kids school, there's a teacher
Speaker 1: appreciation like week. Oh yeah, I think that's just yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So just to like give some check ins of what
Speaker 1: that looks like. So on Tuesday, on Teacher Appreciation Day
Speaker 1: in the United States, you could get one free select
Speaker 1: meal at TGA Fridays Let's Go and a complimentary egg
Speaker 1: McMuffin at some McDonald's locations. So I think we're done here.
Speaker 1: Like that's all I just wanted to check in to
Speaker 1: make sure they were being taken care of, and it
Speaker 1: sounds like they are.
Speaker 2: So you know what's wild though, too, Like as you
Speaker 2: say this, USA today has like a thing of like
Speaker 2: here all like the deals you can get for teacher
Speaker 2: appreciation Week, Right, it's like, how about like here's the
Speaker 2: legislation that we should be supporting teachers. They're like, hey man,
Speaker 2: you want to get a free move move, shake and
Speaker 2: move wows what's moo yahburger? Like does they literally have
Speaker 2: that office depot man? Like that's so offensive where they're
Speaker 2: like office depot man, come get some fucking school supplies. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you pay for it out of pocketing out of here anyway.
Speaker 2: But also like if you're gonna get people free crocs
Speaker 2: and stuff, do that.
Speaker 1: I guess yeah, yeah, I mean I definitely don't stop
Speaker 1: doing that. But it just feels like that is the
Speaker 1: that's the least to it. I think that's the least
Speaker 1: corporations can do. Now, what's the least legislators can do?
Speaker 1: This is a yes and situation. Yes, not a not
Speaker 1: a no bar.
Speaker 2: Is a yes to my yes, I will take your
Speaker 2: free fired house SUBSAMD with you. Yes and a wage right,
Speaker 2: many teachers earn less than a family living wage, and
Speaker 2: a twenty twenty two study found that teachers earn twenty
Speaker 2: three point five percent less than the comparable college graduates,
Speaker 2: like people with the same level of education. Right, going
Speaker 2: into being a teacher, one of the most important jobs
Speaker 2: in our society is like a bad financial decision. Like
Speaker 2: I remember when I was like getting out of school,
Speaker 2: like the whole those who can't do teach, like that
Speaker 2: being just a thing that shitty people said, Right, But yeah,
Speaker 2: there's just a growing shortage of teachers. More than three
Speaker 2: quarters of states are experiencing a teacher shortage. But Arizona
Speaker 2: has the answer. So one Arizona School District is building
Speaker 2: a tiny company town of modestly priced studio apartments next
Speaker 2: to the school.
Speaker 1: Company town. I got to keep an eye on you.
Speaker 1: You know that feels penitentiary esque.
Speaker 3: Good for school spirit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Geno Value Unified School District is using federal money
Speaker 1: to build ten studio units, each four hundred square feet
Speaker 1: four hundred square feet on a vacant lot behind an
Speaker 1: elementary school, where teachers will pay roughly what but at
Speaker 1: a steep discount miles just like the TGI Friday is
Speaker 1: the deal.
Speaker 2: Yo, If you got to live in a fucking four
Speaker 2: hundred foot square or four hundred square foot studio apartment
Speaker 2: and already live next to the school.
Speaker 1: Next to your workplace, I believe you're.
Speaker 2: Supposed to be like because when the real company township
Speaker 2: be like and you don't have to go nowhere because
Speaker 2: we own your ass.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, then charge the rent that's five hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty per month, which is below market rate, but you
Speaker 1: are living at work, which is tough. I remember when
Speaker 1: you could get a studio in La in two thousand
Speaker 1: and nine for five point fifty.
Speaker 3: Yeah, below marketing is such a ridiculous statement, considering that
Speaker 3: rent is so inflated right now. It's it's it's like
Speaker 3: saying it's honestly, that is probably a little bit above
Speaker 3: what it should be for that amount of space anyway,
Speaker 3: So to say that is just.
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, below market just means like not as greedy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, Like.
Speaker 1: Four hundred square feet on the premises of where you
Speaker 1: work is below market in terms of what a renter
Speaker 1: would probably be looking for. But that's not taken into
Speaker 1: consideration when life people are talking about this. Yeah exactly,
Speaker 1: but yeah, so teachers very pay can vary widely. In
Speaker 1: some states like Oklahoma and Mississippi, teachers make an average
Speaker 1: of less than fifty thousand dollars a year. And even
Speaker 1: when you get people who are trying to address the
Speaker 1: problem or claim they're trying to address the problem, that's
Speaker 1: oftentimes in a super shitty way. You're not gonna believe this,
Speaker 1: But Sarah Huckabee Sanders recently signed the Learns Act into law,
Speaker 1: which raised the minimum salary for teachers to fifty thousand
Speaker 1: dollars in Arkansas, which, first of all, below the living
Speaker 1: wage in Arkansas. Second of all, it was rushed through
Speaker 1: because the pay raise was basically a smoke screen for
Speaker 1: a voucher program that will decimate the public school system. Aha,
Speaker 1: and there's Florida like bands on discussing gender identity, sexual orientation,
Speaker 1: and sexual reproduction. Of course, of course thrown in there.
Speaker 2: Yeah you gotta yeah, you come in like, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: Like we've done the calculus. We can afford to raise
Speaker 2: the pay this much because these vouchers are about to
Speaker 2: fuck things up on.
Speaker 1: The other end. That will help out a ton. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: that's wow.
Speaker 2: It's again like you're saying, like even when outwardly you're
Speaker 2: trying to do something right, or at least in this
Speaker 2: instance in Arkansas where she's the governor, you're still getting
Speaker 2: a fat middle finger.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Bernie introduced a bill to make a federal minimum
Speaker 1: wage for teachers that would raise public school teacher salaries
Speaker 1: nationwide two sixty thousand dollars or higher, and of course
Speaker 1: the GOP pushback, claiming teachers should be paid more, but
Speaker 1: it shouldn't be left out. But it shouldn't be the
Speaker 1: big government telling you that it should be the states,
Speaker 1: which is exactly what's happening now and it's clearly not working.
Speaker 1: But Biden also seems to be reluctant to make any
Speaker 1: big moves. I'm paying teachers because you know, he's got
Speaker 1: to run it, run America like a fucking corporation.
Speaker 2: And so also, shame on you man, your fucking partner,
Speaker 2: your wife is an educator. Yeah, and you can't the
Speaker 2: fuck at whatever.
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm not acting surprise. I'm just like, yeah,
Speaker 1: fuck this guy, like you.
Speaker 2: Can't even this is These are the easiest wins to
Speaker 2: farve out as a politician. There's no els again, and
Speaker 2: unless you're unless you're worried about the sounds that your
Speaker 2: donors make or like dark money groups are gonna make.
Speaker 2: But like, for people from their perspective, it's not a
Speaker 2: single person who's like, man, teachers are paid way too much.
Speaker 3: Not a single person.
Speaker 2: I just watched the video this dude get fucking punched
Speaker 2: out by his student because he took their cell phone
Speaker 2: because they were cheating on a test. Yeah, and see,
Speaker 2: oh my man took one to the eye. And then
Speaker 2: the same teacher got pepper sprayed.
Speaker 3: I was gonna say it was the same teacher.
Speaker 2: Same teacher in Tennessee. That was the latest one he
Speaker 2: got pepper spray. The clip before was when he got
Speaker 2: fucking punched out by a kid who's like taking my
Speaker 2: phone because I'm cheating on the test.
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, the.
Speaker 2: Shit that people have to go through and the lack
Speaker 2: of support, Like even like that teacher who was shot
Speaker 2: by the student who brought a gun to school, they're like, oh,
Speaker 2: that's a that's a workplace injury that should be covered byron. Shit,
Speaker 2: It's like not anything, nothing beyond there's no other real
Speaker 2: negligence here.
Speaker 1: Hey, just what comes with the territory? Like really, yeah,
Speaker 1: Biden's plan last year was to encourage governors to tap
Speaker 1: into COVID relief money to bump up teachers back. So, bitch, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3: You need to show me the entire breakdown. I mean, like, yes,
Speaker 3: could I go online and look at the entire budget
Speaker 3: and then see where I can square a few dollars
Speaker 3: here and there. Yeah, it's called the defense budget, Thank
Speaker 3: you very much. It's just like I you need I
Speaker 3: don't know. It's just so it's in a desperate political moment,
Speaker 3: taking these easy w's seems like priority number fucking one.
Speaker 2: He's not desperate, though, he's not desperate. It's because they know, man,
Speaker 2: the biggest fucking gift these Republicans gave the Democrats was
Speaker 2: them going so hard on abortion. Yeah, so now all
Speaker 2: they're gonna do is like we're gonna codify Roe v.
Speaker 1: Wade. No, you're not.
Speaker 2: Gonna keep dangling that shit because it's it's such a powerful,
Speaker 2: like motivational mechanism that you've stumbled upon by accident. And
Speaker 2: that's why I'm like, I don't know, like get ready
Speaker 2: for barely any promises twenty twenty four.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I mean, you know, I agree,
Speaker 3: with you that it may not be as like desperate,
Speaker 3: but it's still just it's I feel like the bigger
Speaker 3: a swing, or rather the more because the pendulum just
Speaker 3: swings back one way versus the other. You know, you
Speaker 3: go from Obama to then Trump and now we're like
Speaker 3: looking at Biden, but like giving us a an extra
Speaker 3: push the other way, since the since we're not in
Speaker 3: such a desperate political situation to maybe get Biden in
Speaker 3: twenty twenty four is just like, why aren't we thinking
Speaker 3: to do as many positive things as possible so that
Speaker 3: the swing back the other way isn't so drastic, because
Speaker 3: it's just like I feel like it's just setting it
Speaker 3: up for an even harder pendulum swing the other way
Speaker 3: to get whoever it would be in twenty eight.
Speaker 1: Well, we talked about this.
Speaker 2: It's because there's this like, because of all the consultants
Speaker 2: and that have been working on decades on electoral politics,
Speaker 2: it's like it all follows the same thing of like
Speaker 2: you speak slightly to the left, you don't deliver on
Speaker 2: any of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's.
Speaker 2: That's how they nudge it a little bit more by
Speaker 2: saying whatever in the primary, then in the general, the
Speaker 2: sh deliver on it. Yeah, and again because they know
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, the thing that they're like, man,
Speaker 2: we don't really even have to do this because what
Speaker 2: the Republicans are proposing is so terrifying that it's more
Speaker 2: just to be like, yeah, we don't.
Speaker 1: Have to don't promise too much. And that's what's so
Speaker 1: cynical about it.
Speaker 2: And there's also that like really dumb accepted wisdom of
Speaker 2: like don't go too far left. You know, in a
Speaker 2: reelection bid, you don't want that to happen. You don't
Speaker 2: want to get in over your skis promising this stuff
Speaker 2: when meanwhile, we're in like when you read the climate
Speaker 2: of like just the tone of the room and what
Speaker 2: people are asking for.
Speaker 1: They want they want this shit to go left.
Speaker 3: Too far left, pay teachers fifteen thousand more dollars a year,
Speaker 3: too far left.
Speaker 2: And that's but that's what's wild, right, is like they've
Speaker 2: co op just to be able to say like, oh,
Speaker 2: it's too much, Like no, what we're saying is like
Speaker 2: the bear min me.
Speaker 3: Truly.
Speaker 1: They there's also evidence that this strategy of just generally
Speaker 1: gesturing towards Trump might not be working. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: it's a fucking poll, so polls. Who the fuck knows.
Speaker 1: But he's apparently, according to a new ABC News Washington Post, Pole,
Speaker 1: set to lose by seven points in a hypothetical general
Speaker 1: election against Trump. So all the like, this is the
Speaker 1: smart move, and he's just being like, what do you
Speaker 1: want to do? Have Trump in there and Biden's like
Speaker 1: a shoe in to beat Trump. I think that's probably
Speaker 1: not the case. Like that. Everybody assumes that, you know, whenever,
Speaker 1: like the same thing that happened last time is going
Speaker 1: to happen again, and it just that never is the case,
Speaker 1: right everyone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think for as much as Biden isn't Trump,
Speaker 2: that's not enough for people.
Speaker 1: It's not enough.
Speaker 2: People are way too in tune with what they are
Speaker 2: owed and what their situation looks like that they're like,
Speaker 2: you can't just be like I don't know, man, we
Speaker 2: got to do better. They're like, hold on, you make
Speaker 2: the decisions. Yeah right, Actually, you gotta do better. That's
Speaker 2: why you gotta vote many And if, maybe, if if
Speaker 2: Biden's physical state didn't have him looking like the fucking
Speaker 2: nosgool up there, I would be a little more be like, well,
Speaker 2: you never know, maybe he's got some new tricks of
Speaker 2: his sleep.
Speaker 1: But my man is like he looks like he's about
Speaker 1: to blow away, Like he's threadbare.
Speaker 3: Got nothing going on.
Speaker 1: Is that Jerry Seinfeld who just came in there? For
Speaker 1: a second, I feel like I just heard Jerry Seinfeld popping.
Speaker 1: I forget what you were saying. Look at that guy,
Speaker 1: he's ad his wet his hair looks like spiderwebs. All right,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. And
Speaker 1: we're back. And so is the year nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 1: This summer ps to be the biggest movie summer in
Speaker 1: years because of the pandemic. Obviously, think my best year.
Speaker 2: Pretty quiet, your best oh years old? Killing I have
Speaker 2: Batman bike shorts, will wear every day. My parents had
Speaker 2: Batman bike shorts.
Speaker 1: Is such a specific butt like that was? That was
Speaker 1: when Axel Rose started wearing bike shorts as like just
Speaker 1: a thing like T shirt bike shorts and yep, that
Speaker 1: was like, well, I guess that's okay. I had Batman
Speaker 1: logos going all up the side of the leg.
Speaker 2: I remember my parents like I will fall asleep and
Speaker 2: they would have to take them off of me because
Speaker 2: I'm like, no, these are my pajamas? Also, yeah, and
Speaker 2: like I just part of me anyway.
Speaker 1: So I think that year did make a mark and
Speaker 1: the you know, brain trusted Hollywood has looked at the
Speaker 1: metrics and were like, we're just gonna do that one
Speaker 1: over again, because yeah, so biggest movie of the year,
Speaker 1: as Miles mentioned, as Miles head on his child hips
Speaker 1: on his child legs Batman, so shout out Legs. So
Speaker 1: in that in place of Batman, we are getting The Flash,
Speaker 1: a new movie that, according to the trailers, is just
Speaker 1: basically Michael Keaton as Batman. Again, Like it's full up
Speaker 1: of like Michael Keaton saying I'm Batman and like his
Speaker 1: first line in the movie also you want to get nuts,
Speaker 1: Let's get nuts, which I guess is a line from
Speaker 1: the first one. I forgot that. Oh yeah, you are
Speaker 1: my number one. I remember that. Wait, but does Michael
Speaker 1: Keaton say you want to get nuts, Let's get nuts
Speaker 1: or the joker line? Yeah, it feels like he's like
Speaker 1: his Bruce Wayne is a little It's like I would
Speaker 1: not want to I guess that's true of all Bruce.
Speaker 1: Bruce is Wayne, but just a guy I wouldn't want
Speaker 1: to hang out with. It seems seems like a billionaire
Speaker 1: with like trauma. It's like he could he could just
Speaker 1: go to me, maybe a couple of therapy sessions which
Speaker 1: collects old weapons. Yeah. Yeah, So anyways, that's coming back.
Speaker 1: People are like, oh my god, it's amazing. The second
Speaker 1: biggest movie of nineteen eighty nine was Indiana Jones in
Speaker 1: the Last Crusade. This year we have what, will, according
Speaker 1: to Harrison Ford, be the last Indiana Jones movie again.
Speaker 1: I think he said that about Kingdom of the Crystal
Speaker 1: Skull again. They have just wildly missed on the name
Speaker 1: that they've given it. Like the first three were all
Speaker 1: all made sense to me. Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Speaker 1: too much. This one, the Dial of Destiny. Does that
Speaker 1: do anything for you, guys?
Speaker 2: No, No, that sounds like it sounds like you would
Speaker 2: do something for a seventy year old person.
Speaker 3: I was gonna say that also sounds like a bad
Speaker 3: rom com title. Dial Destiny. I want to call away.
Speaker 3: I have to.
Speaker 2: I've forgot to mention this when you you brought up
Speaker 2: the Flash movie. There was an article that was going
Speaker 2: around last week because Ezra Miller. You know, they got
Speaker 2: all this fucking legal trouble and like all these allegations
Speaker 2: that we've heard constantly about and we've seen it on
Speaker 2: video ourselves of if this person just acting wild.
Speaker 3: In public, truly, why the fucking.
Speaker 1: The production designer of the film said that the film, Oh,
Speaker 1: hold on, I just have to I just have to
Speaker 1: find this this ship.
Speaker 3: How do you how do you even come out and
Speaker 3: say this? How do you say this?
Speaker 2: Basically said that the film looks so good that quote,
Speaker 2: people will forget they're like this, that they will forget
Speaker 2: their history of abuse because the movie looks so lit.
Speaker 2: How do you throw yourself under the buzz Like, what
Speaker 2: is the point of falling on someone else's sword to
Speaker 2: be like, no, no, no, it's chill. All that bad shit
Speaker 2: they did, You're gonna forget about that? Yeah, what's the point?
Speaker 2: Because if people were just asking, they said in this article,
Speaker 2: in this interview with the CBC, this guy, Paul Osterbery said,
Speaker 2: Oscar Bay says he's not too concerned about how the
Speaker 2: story surrounding Miller will affect the film.
Speaker 1: People will forget that this film could star Woody Allen
Speaker 1: and everyone would still go because that's how it looks,
Speaker 1: that's how good The production design was that's wild. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So anyways, we got Dial of Destiny, which I'm pretty
Speaker 1: sure the Last Crusade was built as like the last
Speaker 1: Indiana Jones movie. So they're doing the exact same move
Speaker 1: as they did in nineteen eighty nine. Also coming out
Speaker 1: The Little Mermaid, Disney's remake of a movie that came
Speaker 1: out in fall of nineteen eighty nine, and what like
Speaker 1: if the previous live action remakes of Disney films have
Speaker 1: taught us anything, it's that they will not be adding
Speaker 1: much no to this, Like, they don't change a whole lot.
Speaker 1: This is just a skinning of like the original film
Speaker 1: with live actors and and better performers.
Speaker 2: I think I think we're gonna get some good I
Speaker 2: mean the performances. At the end of the day, you're
Speaker 2: not having to do much lifting creatively because you're like,
Speaker 2: yeah that that script we already.
Speaker 1: And just in terms of a straight straight up transposition
Speaker 1: of what was happening in nineteen eighty nine, they're really
Speaker 1: they're really doing it.
Speaker 3: If I if I've been on record on the show
Speaker 3: talking about my disdain for live action remixs of Disney movies,
Speaker 3: because I know that we have talked about this in
Speaker 3: the office for years, basically since The Jungle Book and
Speaker 3: Lion King. You just and I know and Jack, I
Speaker 3: know you. I mean, well, I'm not gonna put you
Speaker 3: on the spot and say you share this level of disdain,
Speaker 3: but I know that you too have observed you just
Speaker 3: cannot make these animal faces do what a Disney movie
Speaker 3: does an animation.
Speaker 1: You just cannot, right, you cannot, and you may not.
Speaker 3: And you may and you may not.
Speaker 1: That's why you were so mad about Flounder. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: we talk about since they announced this, I've been like,
Speaker 1: first of all, like it didn't work in The Lion King,
Speaker 1: and those are beautiful animals. Yes, undersea creatures are ugly
Speaker 1: and terrified, weird, and they are supposed to like they're
Speaker 1: cute in the original movie. But like flounder looks really flounder, Yes,
Speaker 1: he looks. Yeah, flounders which, by the way, like actual flounders,
Speaker 1: have their eyes on the So what is what?
Speaker 3: What is this even?
Speaker 1: It's a tropical fish of some sort, but something of
Speaker 1: some sort. Yeah, I'm just like, what if instead of
Speaker 1: the original round, cute faced cartoon character, it was like
Speaker 1: a a fish skeleton mixed with like Pete Davidson, like
Speaker 1: it feels like there go what they've gone with.
Speaker 3: Right, I'm just never I'm I you know, I am.
Speaker 3: I'll say this like, you know, happy for Halle Bailey,
Speaker 3: like getting out there and becoming the star, even a
Speaker 3: bigger star than she already is. Like this is of
Speaker 3: course a huge moment for her. We will see some
Speaker 3: awesome The music that will come out of this will
Speaker 3: be amazing, much like the Lion King the music coming
Speaker 3: out of that was amazing. But just stop it with
Speaker 3: the animals, like what are you? What is I don't
Speaker 3: like we can you can't do we do?
Speaker 2: Just no one Like I wouldn't care if Flounder looked
Speaker 2: all cute in the live action version, like.
Speaker 1: That's a weird That's the one thing I feel like
Speaker 1: people are like, yo, you didn't need to be that
Speaker 1: real find finding.
Speaker 3: Nemo that ship just it's okay if it's a little
Speaker 3: pick Sarry, just you you you own that, do it?
Speaker 1: Nobody's out here and being like man, Mermaids is real.
Speaker 6: It is not how they would be interacting with the
Speaker 6: undersea life here man, Like I'm fine with the Mermaids,
Speaker 6: but don't freak, don't I don't want to look like
Speaker 6: I'm seeing some ship that washed up on the Santa
Speaker 6: Monica Beach.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I mean. Like this flounder looks
Speaker 1: he looks busted, he looks like he's got a problem.
Speaker 2: They say he look like Steve Buscemi, I think, is
Speaker 2: what they're saying on Twitter. There are cuter like with Flounder.
Speaker 2: I was like, maybe they'll find you know, as Katie
Speaker 2: Golden has pointed out on Twitter, there are cute fish
Speaker 2: like they're a parrot fish that as long as you're
Speaker 2: not too freaked out by the fact that they have
Speaker 2: a set of human teeth up front, which you know
Speaker 2: takes a.
Speaker 1: Little while to get over. But they they're goofy. They
Speaker 1: they do fun stuff like they're but they were just like, nope,
Speaker 1: uh huh, it's gonna look like they've seen some ship.
Speaker 1: They're gonna make it look like Flounder has seen some
Speaker 1: dark ship.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah. Also, in my in my own fear of
Speaker 3: not giving people enough credit, like the three D animators
Speaker 3: who are given these jobs to work on these specific
Speaker 3: things obviously do incredible work, and the ship looks awesome,
Speaker 3: but it is a effort completely in vain in that
Speaker 3: you are trying to recreate an emotion that is incapturable
Speaker 3: in a three D animated space. When you're trying to
Speaker 3: make something look quote unquote.
Speaker 1: Real, you just can't smile.
Speaker 3: Whole point. That was the whole point of Disney movies
Speaker 3: in the first place.
Speaker 1: To Sebastian was a no win. By the way, I
Speaker 1: can't total no win. Crabs. Crab have never looked at
Speaker 1: anything like others.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the Sebastian gonna rip his own arm off. No,
Speaker 3: but that's what they do.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they do when they're in a bit of a spot,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: That's what I'm grow that year back that I will
Speaker 3: forgive it. I Sebastian rips's own arm office movie, give
Speaker 3: me that terrify. Some children teach these, teach them about
Speaker 3: Archa Podds.
Speaker 1: So up to this point you might be saying, all right, guys,
Speaker 1: but like these are huge movies, and like it takes,
Speaker 1: you know, nostalgia has a cycle. Ghostbusters Too came out
Speaker 1: in June of eighty nine, and later this year I
Speaker 1: didn't know this. We're getting the sequel to Ghostbusters Afterlife.
Speaker 1: They're doing a sequel to that, and and this sequel
Speaker 1: takes them to New York City, so they're really.
Speaker 3: Baby yeah wow, yeah, Okay.
Speaker 1: There's also the New Ninja Turtles animated movie, which, even
Speaker 1: though the original Ninja Turtles movie didn't come out until ninety,
Speaker 1: like eighty nine was the year of full yone Ninja Turtles,
Speaker 1: Like this was when the cereal was introduced to the
Speaker 1: TV show The Video Games. By the way, this detail
Speaker 1: on the Ninja Turtle cereal I had forgotten. The cereal
Speaker 1: was described on the box as crunchy sweetened Ninja nets
Speaker 1: with Ninja Turtle marshmallows. Pizza shaped marshmallows were later added.
Speaker 1: The Ninja net cereal pieces looked suspiciously similar to checks,
Speaker 1: so they were just like, oh, yeah, these are ninja.
Speaker 3: Nets, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know how one of the Ninja Turtles has
Speaker 1: a net with them at all times?
Speaker 3: Yep, do this?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love that marketing person like, well, obviously we're
Speaker 2: just making this with loose checks, and we're adding our
Speaker 2: own marshmallows.
Speaker 1: Like what they're gonna call these it could have just meaties,
Speaker 1: and talked about the similarity between wheaties and like turtle food,
Speaker 1: you know, right, flaky that flaky like fish Turtle Food.
Speaker 1: There's also on TV in twenty twenty three, We're getting well.
Speaker 1: Rosanne is already here, Quantum Leap is here. Doogie Howser
Speaker 1: dropping The second season was Doogie Howser eighty nine. I
Speaker 1: think so, yeah, is it Who's the Boss reboot in
Speaker 1: the works? They watch remake that nobody asked for. Even
Speaker 1: Matt Locke is coming back?
Speaker 3: Matt really yeah, aren't the Well I don't know, isn't
Speaker 3: anybody who watched Matt Lock probably you know, not with
Speaker 3: us anymore.
Speaker 1: I'm still here, man, That's what I've been saying for years.
Speaker 1: Matt Lock fans, we are still here. You're gonna be
Speaker 1: on the watch list because Joe Biden is still our president. Facts. Okay,
Speaker 1: ye favorite show. You know what I mean. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: still here.
Speaker 3: No you wrong?
Speaker 1: Yeah wrong? Like even like the reuniting of Matt Damon
Speaker 1: and Ben Affleck was about, like the invention of the
Speaker 1: Air Jordan, which was, you know, probably hitting its original
Speaker 1: peak popularity in like eighty nine. It's it's just yeah,
Speaker 1: we're stuck. It's fine, it is. It's what what it is.
Speaker 3: Did you guys see Air? I did? Miles n I
Speaker 3: heard Michael Jordan wasn't in it, so I said, fuck that. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he's He has one quote unquote one line where he says, hello,
Speaker 3: I loved it. I loved air. I thought it was great.
Speaker 1: Jack.
Speaker 3: Did you I did not damn did not care. I
Speaker 3: remember him saying, I firing.
Speaker 1: I wanted to like it. So iron this out, iron
Speaker 1: this out right now?
Speaker 3: Yeah? What what didn't you like about it? Because I'm
Speaker 3: totally I mean obviously I'm completely open to that. And
Speaker 3: you know, and but we know how toxic you can
Speaker 3: get when we start debating movies. Oh I get toxic.
Speaker 3: Take a breath first.
Speaker 1: We know you, we know it. It just I don't know,
Speaker 1: it felt thin to me. Like it opened with a
Speaker 1: montage of like eighties nostalgia that just felt like it
Speaker 1: could have been on, Like like all the needle drops
Speaker 1: were just like so down the middle eighties hit songs,
Speaker 1: the character watch Me like that. The speech, the climactic
Speaker 1: speech that Matt Damon gives to Michael Jordan, like didn't
Speaker 1: really I don't know, it just didn't resonate with me
Speaker 1: as somebody who's like, okay, you have Michael Jordan about
Speaker 1: like the way that he discovers he's great is by
Speaker 1: watching and rewatching the tape of him hitting the game
Speaker 1: winning shot in the championship game, and then like that's
Speaker 1: the only footage, Like what what did they only license
Speaker 1: a single piece of footage Michael Jordan's playing, because.
Speaker 3: Well, they wasted all that money on licensing all those songs,
Speaker 3: so it's kind of late that go where was it
Speaker 3: going to be?
Speaker 1: I don't know, it just felt like there was not
Speaker 1: It's I think it's part partially like as a person
Speaker 1: who grew up around basketball and who like I don't know,
Speaker 1: like has like red books about like Jordan and what
Speaker 1: makes him different and stuff like that, it just felt
Speaker 1: shallow and kind of reductive.
Speaker 3: Okay, I think that is a completely fair take.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you're gonna say, Okay, well, like that's
Speaker 1: some old head ass take. No.
Speaker 3: I mean, I think I think that's completely fair because honestly,
Speaker 3: one of my favorite things about it is that it's short.
Speaker 1: I love that it's quick, because.
Speaker 3: The whole thing is my thing about the movie is
Speaker 3: that if you go into that movie, I don't think
Speaker 3: there's anybody who's watching that movie unless you are like
Speaker 3: Jack and someone who has grown up with basketball or
Speaker 3: is intimately ailing yeah, exactly, or it's just intimately familiar
Speaker 3: with like listen about how there you go shout out
Speaker 3: my miles Jack on my booties, but like intimately familiar
Speaker 3: with the I don't know, the shoe game of any
Speaker 3: time before the nineties. It's like your association with Michael
Speaker 3: Jordan is probably like entwined with Nike. Like you probably
Speaker 3: don't even see Mike, you don't. You don't think of
Speaker 3: Michael with any other shoe period. So if you're watching
Speaker 3: that movie, you're thinking about that or like getting to
Speaker 3: the end, like well, I mean, I know what's gonna happen,
Speaker 3: Like what what is there even? I know who this
Speaker 3: guy is exactly, I know who this guy is. What
Speaker 3: is even what is even the point of this? So
Speaker 3: the fact that it was so kind of like short
Speaker 3: and to the point and just I mean, you know,
Speaker 3: if I'm being real, I mean Phil Knight and some
Speaker 3: of his business practices I think are of course deplorable
Speaker 3: and political giving practices.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they use like the Nike mottos, like the
Speaker 1: core mottos that like he has up on his wall
Speaker 1: of like job's not done until it's done. And like
Speaker 1: all this stuff they use that as like they they
Speaker 1: cut to that as like little chirons that they like
Speaker 1: show you in between scenes. And I don't know, it
Speaker 1: just felt like spiritually empty to me to like tell
Speaker 1: this story about It's like, wow, Nike almost didn't become
Speaker 1: the massive international behemoth that is doing damage all over.
Speaker 3: It already was right, It's just that it didn't become
Speaker 3: even bigger.
Speaker 1: So is the movie.
Speaker 2: But so Jack the movie good on an airplane. I
Speaker 2: think it would be a good airplane watch. I also
Speaker 2: think I might watch it again with my wife and
Speaker 2: be like, oh, I actually enjoy this.
Speaker 1: You know. It was just I think ninety percent of
Speaker 1: my movie takes are like yeah, I just wasn't like
Speaker 1: in a great mood. Wasn't like feeling that movie at
Speaker 1: that time. You know, I will tell you I'd come
Speaker 1: full circle on this take. I like it.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I will say that one of my least favorite
Speaker 3: things about the show The Bear is how much they're
Speaker 3: constantly like Chicago, this is Chago and the beginning of
Speaker 3: the of air. I was watching it just like do
Speaker 3: you have to hammer this so hard to make the point?
Speaker 3: Because it's not like the rest of the movie isn't
Speaker 3: trying to hammer that point home the entire time. It's like,
Speaker 3: at no point you're like, I wonder what time this
Speaker 3: movie said it?
Speaker 1: What myles, there's like a montage with people like doing
Speaker 1: Rubik's cubes.
Speaker 3: It's really like game it's too long.
Speaker 2: It is too long and too just like well, you know,
Speaker 2: because you know what it is. It's it's not I
Speaker 2: think in the end it's not. It's like for us
Speaker 2: but not really yes, because we were there. Dude, I
Speaker 2: don't need this fucking recap. But I'm sure for like
Speaker 2: younger people who would see it like what the wow?
Speaker 1: What is what was this time?
Speaker 3: And I think that's I almost want to say, like
Speaker 3: that is what I feel like studio notes do to
Speaker 3: a movie, because like I feel the same way about
Speaker 3: like any show that's about video games or something. You're
Speaker 3: watching the show and it's just like, this is annoyingly
Speaker 3: what is this video game? Exactly? This is annoyingly hitting
Speaker 3: the hammer on the head. It's like, yeah, I've heard
Speaker 3: a pac Man, thank you?
Speaker 1: Right? Yeah. I don't know, because like I like the
Speaker 1: social network despite the fact that, like you know, I
Speaker 1: don't think Facebook is cool. Like the fact that I
Speaker 1: like watched this and like wasn't on board with like
Speaker 1: loving Phil Knight and Sonny Baccaro like that. I've I've
Speaker 1: done that before. I've liked it before. It was just
Speaker 1: like something just felt like pet and sort of lazy
Speaker 1: about it to me.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, look, this is our time, because clearly
Speaker 2: if this feels with all this stuff coming back around,
Speaker 2: I mean it's like it's like partial studio and network laziness.
Speaker 2: And the other part is like more millennial aged people
Speaker 2: probably influencing things too, like on someone you know that
Speaker 2: sh would you know that ship would go? Although they
Speaker 2: should be hiring us because we got some real ideas
Speaker 2: over here.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, and also this my take like it as
Speaker 1: far as film, like the film industry is concerned, is
Speaker 1: objectively wrong. The like it got an A Cinema score.
Speaker 1: Everybody seems to really love this movie except for me,
Speaker 1: So I'm not and I've listened to like even the
Speaker 1: people from like blank Check and The Flagrant Ones, like
Speaker 1: all those people like this movie. So I just I
Speaker 1: don't know. That's fine what you you as an individual,
Speaker 1: that's what that's what that's how you took it. That's
Speaker 1: how it goes, No, I'm bad. I'm bad. I shouldn't
Speaker 1: even feel something bad about me. So well, then if
Speaker 1: you're bad, then I'm Wesley Snipes. Hey, Hey, you think
Speaker 1: you're bad? Thank you? What are they going to from
Speaker 1: my head? Put that ship out there? Who directed that?
Speaker 1: Was that? Who directed the bad video? I feel like
Speaker 1: it was Scorsese or something like that? Uh it was Yeah,
Speaker 1: Scorsese directed the bad Wow, holy ship? That was eighty seven.
Speaker 1: Eighty seven. What a time to be alive. Well, Miles,
Speaker 1: mm hmm, thank you so much for having me, Yes, Miles,
Speaker 1: such a pleasure.
Speaker 3: Show appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can find him.
Speaker 3: Daniel's such a pleasure having you out, pleasure to be here.
Speaker 1: Where can people also pleasure to follow you?
Speaker 3: You can find me all over the internet at DJ Underscore,
Speaker 3: d A n L. Danly. You can find me on Twitter, Instagram, Twitch,
Speaker 3: and TikTok. And I'm saying it here and now I'm
Speaker 3: riding Twitter until the wheels fall off. I'm not going
Speaker 3: to Blue Sky, I'm not going to any of these
Speaker 3: other things. When Twitter is done, I'm never posting again.
Speaker 3: It's over.
Speaker 1: What is that thing you're saying about white supremacy. No,
Speaker 1: say the whole say the whole.
Speaker 3: Thing anyway, So I'm running Twitter to the wheels fall
Speaker 3: off and then I've done with that shit. So if
Speaker 3: you all of a sudden seven stop posting on Twitter,
Speaker 3: it's because the wheels have fallen off entirely.
Speaker 2: Well, you could say they already have, but huh, yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm curious what for you defines the wheels falling off Twitter?
Speaker 2: Because I'm like, I'm not necessarily I'm not protesting it
Speaker 2: by taking my I don't post enough to be like
Speaker 2: my content will live elsewhere, right because I just I'm
Speaker 2: using it less and every now and then I'll look
Speaker 2: at it. But what to you, I'm curious what what
Speaker 2: is your The wheels have won't truly come off, and
Speaker 2: I'm off this, I think, I mean, you know, if
Speaker 2: I were to start listing things, I think it would
Speaker 2: be pretty easy to see that a lot of those
Speaker 2: things are kind of like already happening. But I think
Speaker 2: think if there is a total separation of the people
Speaker 2: who you know, we trust as like news sources and
Speaker 2: just like reputable minds being silenced in different ways like
Speaker 2: purposefully silenced, where are not allowed to tweet anymore. In
Speaker 2: this and the and the platform truly becomes a space
Speaker 2: that is exclusively run by people who actually pay for
Speaker 2: the service, and there's no way to access it without
Speaker 2: having like bought into Elon's Twitter. I think the wheels
Speaker 2: will have completely come off, right because you can still
Speaker 2: kind of get what you need to get. Yeah, but
Speaker 2: I mean, I know to your point, though there's the algorithm.
Speaker 2: They're trying to gain things too, to keep some things.
Speaker 3: Are Arguably, I can still use Twitter more or less
Speaker 3: the way that I used it by just hanging out
Speaker 3: in my following tab and just not looking at the
Speaker 3: FORO you and ignoring every blue check because it's pretty
Speaker 3: it's pretty clear who decided to pay for the money
Speaker 3: and decided that was worth it. Oh yeah, I don't really.
Speaker 2: Chuse those people any because now blue checks are just
Speaker 2: the people who come up with the worst fucking takes. Truly,
Speaker 2: Y're like wow, And in a way it is funny
Speaker 2: how subconsciously you're like, oh, that must be like a
Speaker 2: professional in here, dehumanizing unhoused people. And I'm like, no,
Speaker 2: that's someone with fourteen followers exactly sending his rent money.
Speaker 3: So and so bunch of numbers as we like to say.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Dane, is there a work of media that
Speaker 1: you've been enjoying?
Speaker 3: There is? And I the funny thing is, I think
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do the thing where you're describing a picture
Speaker 3: on the on the old Twitter. But I'll share this
Speaker 3: in the chat right now. There's been this, there's been
Speaker 3: one of these these memes. Y'all ever heard of these things?
Speaker 3: These memes? Yeah, I love them, ma ma is. It's
Speaker 3: where someone quote tweets a tweet, but it's a picture
Speaker 3: of like someone saying the tweet. And have you you guys,
Speaker 3: have you guys seen Kunk on Earth? Yes? Yeah, Okay,
Speaker 3: I will say I think it's kind of a joke
Speaker 3: that only works for one episode, but it's so god
Speaker 3: damn funny. And it's the host of Kunk on Earth
Speaker 3: saying this thing. And I think this dude is one
Speaker 3: of the guys in Choppo Trap House. I think, isn't
Speaker 3: that who this guy is? Or maybe it's just a
Speaker 3: picture of that dude. I don't know.
Speaker 1: It looks like it could be Virtuil Texas or Jason Schwartz.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1: For a second, I thought it was Jason Schwartz, right exactly.
Speaker 3: But no, But anyway, the tweet, the tweet that I
Speaker 3: the tweet that I love so much is it's the
Speaker 3: woman from Kunk on Earth. I don't know. I don't
Speaker 3: think I can do the accident, but it's it's easy
Speaker 3: to think of Italy as nothing more than spaghetti, garlic,
Speaker 3: bread and parmesan cheese, but a quick look at their
Speaker 3: history reveals they invented fascism and thinking of Kunk on
Speaker 3: Earth saying that is so wait, what is Kunk on Earth?
Speaker 3: It is a show on Netflix that you got to watch.
Speaker 3: You can give it, give it one episode. It's kind
Speaker 3: of like David Attenborough if they were just wrong about
Speaker 3: everything Oli g David as.
Speaker 1: The BBC show, How the fuck do I not?
