Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this uh season to
Speaker 1: seventy five, episode four of Like Geics. It's a production
Speaker 1: by Heart Radio. I've been sucking up like the parts
Speaker 1: that are that would seem to be unfunck upable of late,
Speaker 1: the parts that I've said thousands of times at this point,
Speaker 1: and I'm I'm still sucking it up this well. This
Speaker 1: is a podcast where we take a deep dive in
Speaker 1: to America's share consciousness. In case you were curious, it
Speaker 1: is Thursday, February three. My name is Jack O'Brien, a
Speaker 1: K and got no melanin pronounced the team my friend.
Speaker 1: Just to reminder, when you are a Caucasian, he sings
Speaker 1: the songs about a party on your birthday. He sings
Speaker 1: a song that doesn't care what fits your birthday. Oh,
Speaker 1: Curtis je, Curtis JE, Curtis JE. It's fifty cent. It's
Speaker 1: never fifty cent, No matter how uncol you think that sounds.
Speaker 1: It's fifty cent. It's never fi And he said, no
Speaker 1: matter how cool do you think that sounds, that's courtesy
Speaker 1: as Scaddy Magooth in reference to the new role if
Speaker 1: you're if you're a white person, don't don't pronounce it
Speaker 1: fitty s okay, just just don't ever do it. It's
Speaker 1: fifty to you and I good friends, plural s. Yeah,
Speaker 1: fifty cents. It's just fifty cents exactly. Just make it incomprehensible,
Speaker 1: interchangeable with a unit of money. That's anyways. I'm thrown
Speaker 1: to be joined in the second seat by one of
Speaker 1: our favorite, very favorite co host guests, a hilarious and
Speaker 1: brilliant producer and TV writer. He's he's standing up, he's
Speaker 1: thinking about standing up for this ak you know him
Speaker 1: from yours? This racist it's Andrew two. Where got apod? Wow?
Speaker 1: Andrety is here? Oh my god, I couldn't get the
Speaker 1: hide up. Oh yeah, I debated standing for this. I
Speaker 1: should have I should have done it committed, And I
Speaker 1: think I think that's probably at least part of my
Speaker 1: problem is that I don't put my full body into it.
Speaker 1: I don't have the diaphragm control it turns out, or
Speaker 1: the breath control, or the voice or the rage. I
Speaker 1: haven't got the rage. Oh it's I love having a
Speaker 1: new guest on and singing, or an old guest and
Speaker 1: just appalled the appalled look on their face when I'm
Speaker 1: just belting out something that like that is indistinguishable from
Speaker 1: like any other like they don't know what song it is.
Speaker 1: That's a great way to start a podcast. We're trying to, like,
Speaker 1: you know, reach an audience with this. Just alienate everyone
Speaker 1: and humiliate yourself. But I thought yours was beautiful and
Speaker 1: you know, the lost faith, lost breath, but it's still
Speaker 1: it's all. It was all that I could do. I
Speaker 1: left it all on the floor. I gotta take us right.
Speaker 1: And that's all we could ask from our podcast athletes.
Speaker 1: So thank you, Andrew. Andrew, We're thrilled to be joined
Speaker 1: by a creative and political activist who hosts Beyond the
Speaker 1: Pale on w b AI in New York. Is a
Speaker 1: caucus member of Jews for Racial and Economic Justice and
Speaker 1: co founder of its electoral arm, the Jewish Vote. Please
Speaker 1: welcome back to the show, Raphael shipping Up. Happy to
Speaker 1: be back. How are you doing? Man? Wait, you're coming
Speaker 1: to us from New York? What was happening in the
Speaker 1: future back there? We're you know, we're we're dealing with
Speaker 1: the our amazing cop Mayor. Yeah, just what the world
Speaker 1: needs right now. We can't find him anywhere and he
Speaker 1: have been following on Twitter. You've been like kind of
Speaker 1: hunting him at his favorite restaurants. Oh yeah, handing down
Speaker 1: Valentine's We're handing out our people were handing out Valentine's cards,
Speaker 1: you know, looking for him, asking him to stop taking
Speaker 1: money from our schools and giving it to police. Right, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: there's something about schools. These Republicans really seem keen on
Speaker 1: fucking up the lives of our children. They're trying to
Speaker 1: need it. Yeah, they do kind of kind of their
Speaker 1: whole thing. That's stuff, that's what they require for their
Speaker 1: their version of the society. Couldn't even keep his he's
Speaker 1: getting a ticket from the city or just uncontrollable rats
Speaker 1: coming out of his private property where it's like you
Speaker 1: have to work so hard to stand out in the city.
Speaker 1: Rats in the city where there's like crossing guards for
Speaker 1: rats between just like float around on a bed of rats.
Speaker 1: Like how how Like I'm trying to imagine what somebody
Speaker 1: would have to do to to stand out like that,
Speaker 1: like just moving around, just floating like a dracula, a rat.
Speaker 1: Dracula is just two inches off the ground. Walls made
Speaker 1: out of pizza crust everywhere rat coat made of live rats.
Speaker 1: They're just swarming. Why is your coat moving off? That
Speaker 1: is terrifying, sir. It's weird how New York mayor has
Speaker 1: just always find the perfect metaphor for themselves. That's right,
Speaker 1: it's incredible. All right, Raphael, we're going to get to
Speaker 1: know you a little bit better at the moment. First,
Speaker 1: we're gonna tell our listeners a couple of things that
Speaker 1: we're talking about. Nicky Haley, the sensible Conservative option, the
Speaker 1: moderate Republican option for president just came out as very
Speaker 1: like just wild, came out swinging baby with the ends. Well,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about the event, but it involved her expressing
Speaker 1: the most profound support for somebody who once claimed that
Speaker 1: Hitler was set by God. So we'll talk about that.
Speaker 1: We're going to talk about Florida schools. You know, so
Speaker 1: some of the folks in our discords and Zeit Gang,
Speaker 1: we're mentioning that they live in a place where there
Speaker 1: are I believe, two hundred and fifty approved books for
Speaker 1: all of K through twelve. And yeah, like the library,
Speaker 1: the school library shelves are are empty in these schools.
Speaker 1: And it's something that I think I was vaguely aware
Speaker 1: of but then you just like see like there there's
Speaker 1: a there's a New Yorker article that's like talking to
Speaker 1: this person as though they're like a source and a journalist.
Speaker 1: And then you like go they like like off to
Speaker 1: his Twitter account, and this fool's name is like jags
Speaker 1: fan Brian on Twitter. He's just like just a dude, man.
Speaker 1: These are just like this is happening to like people
Speaker 1: who are just like, yeah, I sent my kid to
Speaker 1: like the local public school, and like the they had
Speaker 1: to they got the book, their book taken away from
Speaker 1: them that they were reading for school because it wasn't approved.
Speaker 1: Like god, Yeah, so we're gonna talk about that. We're
Speaker 1: gonna talk about Subway being up for sale perhaps mayhaps,
Speaker 1: so we'll talk about that. We'll talk about Barney returning
Speaker 1: with a face lift that like looks like he has
Speaker 1: gone he's been on TV twelve, you know, like his
Speaker 1: he looks like he lost all of his like boogle fat.
Speaker 1: Yeah he got the surgery. Yeah, I like what if
Speaker 1: it makes him feel good? Yeah, Barney used to have
Speaker 1: like some heavy lids for a cartoon. You know, well
Speaker 1: we know we know why. Yeah, Barney was lifted, you know, Barney,
Speaker 1: Barney was smoking and that this Barney looks like he
Speaker 1: has switched over to cocaine or you know, Crystal mess
Speaker 1: and I really love you, I really love you in
Speaker 1: a row. I'll love you forty eight hours in a
Speaker 1: rough gateway gateway drunk. Yeah, I think that's right. All
Speaker 1: that plenty more Before we get to any of that bullshit, Raphael,
Speaker 1: we like to ask our guests, what is something from
Speaker 1: your search history? So the last thing I was listening
Speaker 1: to another podcast, and I think New York acknowled it
Speaker 1: doesn't exist anymore. It's gone. Actually, the last thing from
Speaker 1: my search was was ironically about being uh, they're They're
Speaker 1: teeming plotted its way back to elevance. Yeah, with that
Speaker 1: creepy chat GPT, the one that those college estates. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was like down that rabbit hole. And it's scary
Speaker 1: because you know, we watched Google make smart people smarter
Speaker 1: and kind of ignorant people more ignorant, and now now
Speaker 1: we're gonna come upon a new society where they can't
Speaker 1: even accidentally come across the right information. It's just gonna
Speaker 1: the search engine is gonna tell them what the answer
Speaker 1: is in sentence form. But also maybe, Yeah, if you
Speaker 1: don't know how to use it, you might draw the
Speaker 1: wrong conclusions. Yeah, it's got controlled by billiadaire monopolies and
Speaker 1: AI itself still racist. If the feeling lucky button on
Speaker 1: Google was wordy like that's what they've decided to go
Speaker 1: with here, I'm a little nervous. I'm feeling lucky and
Speaker 1: I will not shut up my favorite type of people
Speaker 1: just constantly feeling lucky, regardless of you know, outward indications
Speaker 1: of or results. And I just can't can't shut the
Speaker 1: funk up. So what would you learn? What would you
Speaker 1: have you? Did you see any of the results? I
Speaker 1: think I saw some results where somebody was like where
Speaker 1: is the avatar showing? And it wound up with them
Speaker 1: like down a very strange path. What I do is
Speaker 1: I don't have the that's like private access to test
Speaker 1: it out right now, but I test out other aies.
Speaker 1: I work with a group called Athena Coalition, and we
Speaker 1: oppose Amazon, and they are authors of their own AI
Speaker 1: stuff and and things that hunt that they sell to
Speaker 1: like governments to oppress their people. And it's really scary
Speaker 1: what's out there? Like if you ask your basic questions,
Speaker 1: a lot of these aies. You could see what they
Speaker 1: call guardrails, but really they actually like you could see
Speaker 1: its censoring results. You could see it, you know, saying
Speaker 1: like no, you don't like if you ask about armed revolution,
Speaker 1: you'll see them always responding, you know, like yes, the
Speaker 1: most successful ways historically to change oppressive systems have been
Speaker 1: violent revolutions. But however, however, not amore no no no no, no,
Speaker 1: no no no. Here's one very carefully selected sentence from
Speaker 1: the I have a dream speech. So that makes the
Speaker 1: love AI is like even the uncensored version of it.
Speaker 1: It's just like this whole thing is like educated on
Speaker 1: number one, the totality of the Internet taken credulously, and
Speaker 1: number two like people who love AI, like that's who
Speaker 1: interacts with it most. And guess what, people who love
Speaker 1: AI are fucking creeps, So like like on the whole
Speaker 1: and listeners who love it, but you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: it's just like, yeah, of course it's a fucking creep.
Speaker 1: It will just be what whatever Andrew Yang would reply with, Yeah, God,
Speaker 1: that fucker he's ruining being Andrew and about my age
Speaker 1: and Chinese. He fucking a Wormand but on the other hand,
Speaker 1: the same hand, but I'll just pretend like it's another hand.
Speaker 1: I forgot, Hey, what is something that you is overrated?
Speaker 1: You know Valentine's Jay just passed, and it's really the
Speaker 1: truffles over tule overrated. I can't take the difference between
Speaker 1: things with them, without them, the price difference is clear.
Speaker 1: I don't know what the hell people are talking about.
Speaker 1: Either my tongue is dead or these truffles seem like
Speaker 1: like they just it's a scam, and it's yeah, I
Speaker 1: think that's right. All all luxury is a scam. I
Speaker 1: just like I like the little shavy thing, but like,
Speaker 1: how do they even they find it with these They
Speaker 1: have these elaborate things with pigs and they go through
Speaker 1: florists and they find it, and and like when did
Speaker 1: we start trusting the animal that eats maggots from roots
Speaker 1: and maybe caterpillars that are too weak to run away
Speaker 1: from a pig, Like what a luxury food item is.
Speaker 1: It's just I don't know. Charlotte's Web is an o.
Speaker 1: I've been saying that one. Charlotte's Web is a fucking
Speaker 1: op to upsell us truffles. I think that's that's what
Speaker 1: you pay for. You pay for the fact that like
Speaker 1: the process is so steampunk and like twelfth century like,
Speaker 1: and it's like it's like getting like you know, like
Speaker 1: boots made by entirely one person or something. It's like
Speaker 1: they're not better, they're just expensive. It was annoying because
Speaker 1: it was annoying to make right, that's a good Yeah,
Speaker 1: so everything's a power trip basically. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Speaker 1: they are. I feel like truffles are the most expensive food,
Speaker 1: like on a per It has to be because it
Speaker 1: see what the shavings cost. Yeah, maybe you are paying
Speaker 1: for the experience a little bit, but yeah, I'm just
Speaker 1: to be entertained. You have to be entertained by it.
Speaker 1: I'm happy to get some parmesan graded over my ship,
Speaker 1: like some fresh ground up. You know. That's good. I
Speaker 1: don't I don't need the Yeah. I have enjoyed a
Speaker 1: truffle here and there, but never like it's it's kind
Speaker 1: of like buttery, but it's hard to explain, Like it
Speaker 1: doesn't really taste like anything else, and it kind of
Speaker 1: tastes bad. There's like a buttery but like there's a
Speaker 1: little bit it's like any mushroom. It's just now I
Speaker 1: love mushrooms. Yeah, I love mushroom, but I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't maybe it doesn't have enough. Maybe I'm not reaching.
Speaker 1: I've had enough truffles in my mouth, even from bro Bro.
Speaker 1: You just need more, You just need to take more enough.
Speaker 1: It's gonna hit you really hard. It's gonna Yeah, Barney, Barty,
Speaker 1: talk to you about Barney. Yeah, what is something you
Speaker 1: think is underrated? I mean, this is hard to make
Speaker 1: a case for it because everyone loves it. But chicken. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I still think it's still so fucking good. Everyone loves
Speaker 1: so good. Even even vegans love chicken for other reasons.
Speaker 1: But everyone loves chicken. But it's still not enough, Like
Speaker 1: it's we still have to rub it in how good
Speaker 1: it is, how amazing it is. But I think that's
Speaker 1: also a power trip because I feel like, you know,
Speaker 1: I do my own research as well. You know, these
Speaker 1: were dinosaurs that used to hunt us, and now we've
Speaker 1: overcome them in such a way where we're just trolling them,
Speaker 1: and we created turned them into these little things and
Speaker 1: then we're just like clowning them. We even billboards of
Speaker 1: them eating themselves. Like it's just it's just horrendous. It's
Speaker 1: a it's offensive and I hope they rise up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'd like to see that. It would be one of
Speaker 1: the most hilarious ways that we could go out as
Speaker 1: a species that believe weak enough with chickens to take
Speaker 1: us out. Yeah, we deserve it. What's the billboard with
Speaker 1: them eating themselves? You know? It's just like all the
Speaker 1: all the advertisements for chicken places are always like a
Speaker 1: comic of a chicken eating chicken or like right, like
Speaker 1: we're just plowing them at this there was like a
Speaker 1: peda thing that was like these chickens are forced to
Speaker 1: eat themselves. That's probably true too, like some like cruel
Speaker 1: raw type ship. Yeah, chicken, chicken is really good. Chicken
Speaker 1: is just the best. It like, it doesn't give me
Speaker 1: bad dreams like red meat does. Just meat you don't get,
Speaker 1: do you guys not get bad dreams from beef? If
Speaker 1: you eat beef, and sometimes beef really me up. You
Speaker 1: think you're getting the memories of the cow? I think so. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think it's there's like something evil about it. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I had a wonderful like stress dream nightmare
Speaker 1: last night. I woke up at like five in the
Speaker 1: morning and I realized I've been trying to rewrite this movie,
Speaker 1: and I've been stuck on the first scene, and I
Speaker 1: woke up in a panic that my car had been towed.
Speaker 1: And then I was like, eureka, I could fix this
Speaker 1: first scene. Yeah, I was like, the character have their
Speaker 1: car towed? No, no, it was it. I went from
Speaker 1: unbelievable stress to like, oh my god, I think I
Speaker 1: fixed this thing. That's a great example of this country
Speaker 1: where even in our dreams were working. Yes, a stress
Speaker 1: dream that also was not that consequential, but I woke
Speaker 1: up so upset. Right, my car got towed. That was
Speaker 1: my stress dream. Yeah, yeah, I mean they've solved science
Speaker 1: problems in their dreams. We talked about that a lot earlier,
Speaker 1: like a couple of months back. Like the answers that
Speaker 1: people have come up within their dreams are pretty cool,
Speaker 1: and it's always like through some weird visual metaphor, like
Speaker 1: they were trying to figure out what the molecular structure
Speaker 1: of something was, and like they were thinking of it
Speaker 1: as like linear, that it had to be linear, and
Speaker 1: then they dreamt of snake eating its tail and woke
Speaker 1: up the more like, oh, it's a fucking ring. Sounds
Speaker 1: like you need more beef. Nightmares, like you need to
Speaker 1: eat more beef. There's just a piece of steaks stuck
Speaker 1: in some part of their stomach. Those sending the weird messages, Look,
Speaker 1: I'm not a scientist, okay do I Oh you're you
Speaker 1: sound like you're a magician. That's all right, Let's take
Speaker 1: a quick break. We'll be right back to talk Nicky
Speaker 1: Haley and other bullshit. And we're back. And this is
Speaker 1: this is early in the week for me to just
Speaker 1: be like, I don't fucking know, Likecky Haley, I guess,
Speaker 1: but that that's where we're at, folks. Three EPs in,
Speaker 1: four EPs in, I'm like, uh, but yeah. So, just
Speaker 1: a day after Haley was being heralded by some conservatives
Speaker 1: as the more moderate Republican hope, she held a campaign
Speaker 1: launch event where she was introd by the election denying
Speaker 1: Trump loyalist Ralph Norman, who also formally endorsed her in
Speaker 1: a tweet. The events invocation was delivered by Pastor John Hagee.
Speaker 1: After he was done, she said to Pastor Hagey, I
Speaker 1: still say I want to be you when I grow up.
Speaker 1: And for context, this man claimed that Hitler was sent
Speaker 1: by God to help create Israel. Eventually, so way to go.
Speaker 1: God nailed it. His reputation was so extreme that John
Speaker 1: he endorsed John McCain, and not only did John McCain
Speaker 1: like not make it a cornerstone of his campaign to
Speaker 1: like launch his campaign, he publicly had to reject his
Speaker 1: endorsement in two thousand and eight. So like we've come
Speaker 1: come along you guys fifteen years mere, fifteen years later,
Speaker 1: and we're like, hell, yeah, this is my guy, this
Speaker 1: is this is who I need to hitch my wagon too.
Speaker 1: I mean, the reason, you know, Nicki Haley screwed is
Speaker 1: because the trend my entire lifetime, and I'm an old man,
Speaker 1: has been Republicans will nominate the most bigoted person they
Speaker 1: can get away with. But it's just simply the rule. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she just she don't got it right, but she's trying.
Speaker 1: She's trying to, like you know, she's playing the game.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. Does she even appear moderate alongside Trump? Like
Speaker 1: at all? Does she appear moderate next to him? To
Speaker 1: some people? Maybe? Like is that the play? Is that? Like? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that's the play. They've they've extended the window
Speaker 1: so far. Yeah yeah, yeah, it's unbelievably to the right now,
Speaker 1: she's just she's sword of Nazi and that makes her
Speaker 1: a moderate. Yeah. But Ralph, you were saying that you
Speaker 1: you you had a message for for Nikki that you
Speaker 1: wanted to just so you know, I'm from off you
Speaker 1: just just this is just raf to the to Nikki.
Speaker 1: I'm from Queens. Maybe that the most diverse area, especially
Speaker 1: with Asians and South Asians like Nikki, and I want
Speaker 1: a message. I want to one on one message to Nikki.
Speaker 1: I hope you're listening. I know you're listening because podcast. Yeah. Hi,
Speaker 1: I'm Raphael Shimonov, central Asian from Uzbekistan and Queens. I
Speaker 1: know your real name, Namata Dawa and all of us
Speaker 1: Asians and Queens, especially when Jobbi homies and also me
Speaker 1: all our a p I homies. I don't know why
Speaker 1: Hawaii is in there, but it's chill. We're good. But
Speaker 1: all of us, almost all of us, most of us,
Speaker 1: probably a slight majority of us, mostly renters. We look
Speaker 1: down on you. You're a seller. You're one of those
Speaker 1: immigrants who closed the door behind you and marry some
Speaker 1: prep school white kid who went on to occupy Afghanistan.
Speaker 1: I mean you literally married a wealthy prep school white
Speaker 1: kid who went on to occupy Afghanistan and kill and
Speaker 1: rob af again people for their sweet opium. And you
Speaker 1: know what, shame on you, Nimmy, shame on you. Thank you,
Speaker 1: am I allowed to put my headphones back on. It
Speaker 1: seems like you're done talking. Okay, all right, I'm back.
Speaker 1: Let's let's talk about Florida that better news. No, not
Speaker 1: quite quick. So the good cop side of this act
Speaker 1: is real? Yeah, Like, well, I think she was supposed
Speaker 1: to be. She was being set up by the media
Speaker 1: as a good cop, right, Like they were like, well,
Speaker 1: here and here she comes to be the moderate side
Speaker 1: because she's you know, I know it just you and
Speaker 1: she's you'd want to bring her home to your parents, right.
Speaker 1: She worked at the U M. That's a cool sounding,
Speaker 1: middle of the road job. But here here we go
Speaker 1: with it? Just it does? It really seems like a
Speaker 1: race to the right and a K at the bottom.
Speaker 1: So de Santist this year has moved his fight beyond
Speaker 1: K through twelve to like ap and college courses, and
Speaker 1: Republicans across the country are taking their lead from him
Speaker 1: because he had such a most successful most recent election.
Speaker 1: But it's like it's just wildly racist. Anything that teaches
Speaker 1: that America has been racist in its history he wants
Speaker 1: out of their truly just dystopian. His laws against the
Speaker 1: teaching of race, sexual orientation, and gender have led to
Speaker 1: strict book bands in various school districts. In higher education,
Speaker 1: the governor's rolling back diversity that is from a Vox
Speaker 1: yeah box article Equity and inclusion initiatives reduced tangure protections,
Speaker 1: moving school leaders to review core courses to make sure
Speaker 1: they're free of quote liberal indoctrination. All of this has
Speaker 1: ramifications beyond de santisms, and like a lot of the
Speaker 1: ship that he's like worried about, Like there there were
Speaker 1: math books, like most of the math books were getting
Speaker 1: rejected as too liberal. And yeah, I mean at a
Speaker 1: certain point, and that point was probably about four years ago.
Speaker 1: Like the rest of the country has to like start considering,
Speaker 1: like a high school diploma from someplace like Florida not valid, right, Like,
Speaker 1: like why would someone who graduated from the school system
Speaker 1: be allowed to go to college outside of Florida public colleges. Yeah,
Speaker 1: although they might be the most eager readers to ever
Speaker 1: like appear as freshman as at a as freshman in college,
Speaker 1: like everything's like yo. Instead of being like we can drink,
Speaker 1: they're like we can. And also I feel like I
Speaker 1: said that in such a like boot like accepting way
Speaker 1: of the whole rest of our country. But you get
Speaker 1: the general idea. Well, So, Duval County is currently working
Speaker 1: off a list of three fifty books that have been
Speaker 1: approved at this point for K through twelve. And it's
Speaker 1: not like I've read somewhere people being like, well, they're
Speaker 1: trying to prove a point that like this is how
Speaker 1: bad it's gotten. No, I think they're genuinely afraid of
Speaker 1: being suited. Like it's the same thing that happened with
Speaker 1: like you know, reproductive healthcare there, like you can really
Speaker 1: get fucked and like the way in in this setting,
Speaker 1: and so they are you know, I'm not saying like
Speaker 1: so do do that and like take all the books
Speaker 1: off the show. I'm just saying, like that it is
Speaker 1: a consequence of policy. It's not it's not you know,
Speaker 1: performative like or it doesn't mancel politics. Yeah, it has
Speaker 1: to say whether it's like malicious comply to prove a
Speaker 1: point or fear it's still proving the same point, which
Speaker 1: is those rules are horrified. I know, Like we had
Speaker 1: recently some guests on the w b A show, and
Speaker 1: they were the students from this county in Jacksonville, Florida,
Speaker 1: in high school who got their play banned. It was
Speaker 1: called Indecent and it's it's actually a play about a
Speaker 1: play that's being banned in New York, a Yiddish queer
Speaker 1: play that was banned in like the twenties in New
Speaker 1: York for having the first lesbian scene or something like that.
Speaker 1: And then they these high school kids were about to
Speaker 1: do the production in Jacksonville and high school and it's
Speaker 1: a famous playwright, Paula Vogel, and they got canceled. And
Speaker 1: the theory is actually that like these maga people joined
Speaker 1: the school board, like infiltrated the school board and made
Speaker 1: it canceled this play. So now right now, like Paula
Speaker 1: Vogel and all these kids, Madeline Scotty, these actors are
Speaker 1: fighting to reintroduce the play to get it unbanned. And
Speaker 1: that was part of a concerted strategy by Steve Bannon
Speaker 1: a couple of years back. Starting a couple of years back,
Speaker 1: they were just like, all right, this is the future
Speaker 1: of the thing in the past the we went with
Speaker 1: gamer forums and now we're going with the p t
Speaker 1: A and like, I remember when that was a story
Speaker 1: and just be like, man, that seems like that's going
Speaker 1: to be really bad for the future of the country,
Speaker 1: and it here we are. It is bad for the
Speaker 1: future of the of the country. When you're in twelfth grade,
Speaker 1: you're working with a list of twenty two books that
Speaker 1: you are allowed to read, and it's it's yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know, it's just wild too. Like you know, when
Speaker 1: The New Yorker covered this, they interviewed this guy, he's
Speaker 1: like their source, and he's going in, like he picks
Speaker 1: up his daughter and she she's in second grade, and
Speaker 1: she's just like, I did you hear what happened at
Speaker 1: school today? And you know, we had this like read
Speaker 1: to Achieve like program where we were like talking about
Speaker 1: getting to read these books, and like her older brother
Speaker 1: like they had to like take one of the book
Speaker 1: that he was reading away, and he like so he
Speaker 1: like went in and asked what was happening, and they
Speaker 1: had like papered over the bookshelves to because they're like, well,
Speaker 1: we can't have these on display because otherwise, you know,
Speaker 1: somebody could come in like one of these mega PTA
Speaker 1: people and I get fired and then I don't have
Speaker 1: healthcare in this country and I can die. Like every
Speaker 1: you kind of always have a gun at your head
Speaker 1: in this country when it comes to employment, Like that's
Speaker 1: what it's. It's just really fucking dangerous. And I think
Speaker 1: America has always been a little closer to authoritarianism and
Speaker 1: totalitarianism than we've been willing to give give it credit for.
Speaker 1: But like this, you know, people are going to fall
Speaker 1: in line quickly because their ability to continue to survive
Speaker 1: is on the line. There's a Brooklyn library, actually, there's
Speaker 1: a program called Books on Banned and anyone in any
Speaker 1: state who needs a book that's banned in their library,
Speaker 1: they'll send you the book. It's kind of an incredible program. Nationally,
Speaker 1: they'll send these books nationally. Yeah, well, it really is
Speaker 1: like the Tiny Sliver of Hope is some version of Look,
Speaker 1: maybe the kids aren't reading physical books that much these days.
Speaker 1: Like the teeniest, tiniest Liver of Hope is like I
Speaker 1: guess some kind of e book version of this, or
Speaker 1: you know, I mean with the reproductive health band. It's like,
Speaker 1: you know, I I actually don't even know, but I
Speaker 1: know people were like talking about or I don't know
Speaker 1: the results of how this worked out, but it's like,
Speaker 1: you know, these days you can order drugs from other
Speaker 1: places um legally or quasi legally or illegally, but relatively
Speaker 1: safely to get the health care you need. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe the internet is our savior, but obviously
Speaker 1: it's probably not. Yeah, it's never worked before, for it's
Speaker 1: never never once. Yeah, but I know that's like the
Speaker 1: tidy sliver of hope though, which is probably not a
Speaker 1: good one to hang on too. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean, my my sliver of hope is just that like,
Speaker 1: these are extremists who are like infiltrating the p t
Speaker 1: A and it will continue to alienate like the majority
Speaker 1: of the country the way that we saw with the
Speaker 1: abortion ban and mid terms. But but we are also
Speaker 1: are like so far behind because it's like now it's
Speaker 1: like you gotta fucking get a normal person to run
Speaker 1: for school board or p t A. And like that's
Speaker 1: going to be at minimum a year if not more,
Speaker 1: to like even get someone to run. Yeah, that's that's
Speaker 1: like the key reason why the age fights, the union fights,
Speaker 1: the healthcare fights, the college that fights are so important
Speaker 1: because those are all the things that kind of shackle
Speaker 1: folks from the time they need and the drive and
Speaker 1: will they need to go and do civic things like that.
Speaker 1: So then whoever is left is someone who's just like
Speaker 1: fine and can just like dedicated. In New York right now,
Speaker 1: there's people literally at every freaking drag Queen Story Hour,
Speaker 1: it's the same people who are coming to to disrupt it.
Speaker 1: Like they just don't have any issues with like needing
Speaker 1: money or paying the rent. They're just there to do it,
Speaker 1: to do this kind of thing. And and when we
Speaker 1: call on regular folks to come out and defend it,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of great response, But it could be
Speaker 1: even more if we weren't also worried about the price
Speaker 1: of things. You know that that's just so obviously now
Speaker 1: engineered from from the top. Yeah. Anyway, shout out to
Speaker 1: the getting of the Discord for bring this to our
Speaker 1: attention that this is something that's like a impacting you
Speaker 1: in your life. And shout out to Jags fan Brian
Speaker 1: on Twitter, because that wasn't like, for whatever reason, that
Speaker 1: really like drove it home to me, like, oh, this
Speaker 1: isn't an like This is not just a political thing
Speaker 1: happening back and forth between political people. This is the
Speaker 1: this person just wants to be a fan of the
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars, the NFL team in Jacksonville, and like is like,
Speaker 1: are you fucking really like after going to my kids
Speaker 1: school and like take a video of all the empty bookshelves,
Speaker 1: like I want to talk about Trevor Lawrence and how
Speaker 1: cool his hair is or whatever the fun Jaguars fans
Speaker 1: talk about. Well, it's also like that that that the
Speaker 1: other tidy sliver of hope is like I guess radicalizing
Speaker 1: people that are mostly addressed in you know, other ship.
Speaker 1: Like if the Jags is your main thing, then it's
Speaker 1: pretty telling that you went online and did this. I mean,
Speaker 1: something is gonna happen, like the just the the amount
Speaker 1: of like industrial accidents and train derailments and all of
Speaker 1: these consequences of out of control, top down just profit
Speaker 1: at the cost of any human safety and comfort like
Speaker 1: that that is alienating people. I just worry that our
Speaker 1: government and our media apparatus, like the mainstream media apparatus,
Speaker 1: is so completely allergic to socialism that eventually it's just
Speaker 1: gonna be like, well, I guess fascism then, because like
Speaker 1: that's the only thing that is responding to this that
Speaker 1: we'll get away with you covering, you know, like that
Speaker 1: that's the only thing that like ABC, NBC, CBS, like
Speaker 1: I don't know, like that seem to at least even
Speaker 1: be able to see everything else. Feels like it's like
Speaker 1: invisible to them. Any any socialists to action is just
Speaker 1: it is we like lost a rhetorical war to the
Speaker 1: fucking least articulate human beings on earth. And there's there's
Speaker 1: an argument we deserve what we get. Yeah, how the
Speaker 1: fund did we let them tard the words socialism in
Speaker 1: this way and yet they could just straight up the fascist? Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I feel like they lost sight of it for
Speaker 1: long enough that like most young people are now like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm a socialist, what the funk you're talking about? Of
Speaker 1: course I am. But like it's still there's just an
Speaker 1: unspoken rule or like something with the political and media,
Speaker 1: like the political body and the media central nervous system
Speaker 1: that is just like those words don't make sound in
Speaker 1: our brain. They don't, they don't, we don't have. What
Speaker 1: they have was just like this game of brinksmanship that
Speaker 1: they have when they pull things to the right, the
Speaker 1: extreme right and fascism seems reasonable. What's our like, what's
Speaker 1: left of socialism that we could use to scare the
Speaker 1: all out of them that, you know, other than eating
Speaker 1: the ridge maybe occasionally will throw out, you know, like,
Speaker 1: what's our thing? What could we we could put out
Speaker 1: there that could make socialism seem like Okay, that's that's
Speaker 1: like the same game they put it really is like
Speaker 1: like I was I I think I can't remember how
Speaker 1: I tweeted this the other day, like not the other day,
Speaker 1: what months and months and months ago. But the the
Speaker 1: idea that like even just like thinking of our Congress,
Speaker 1: like the fact that I quote safe seat like drives
Speaker 1: you to be more polar It's like I'm represented by
Speaker 1: fucking okay, but mostly mealy mouthed Adam Schiff, who has
Speaker 1: like the safest quote unquote democratic Well, I guess it's
Speaker 1: price some place in New York. But it's like if
Speaker 1: if he's supposed to be the analogue to like a
Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor greed, he should be out there, colleague for
Speaker 1: like privatizing the oil like industry and executing the CEOs
Speaker 1: like the ant Yes, but he has to have dinner
Speaker 1: with those CEOs. It's not close, and they're for it
Speaker 1: and they're paying for his campaign. Yeah, it's like yeah,
Speaker 1: so there's no version of this like look, yeah, it's
Speaker 1: like someone needs to take that position to be negotiated
Speaker 1: down to a sensible one. We're like we go. It's
Speaker 1: like we're going into a car dealership, Like, here's how
Speaker 1: much money I have. Yeah, that's like that's it versus
Speaker 1: I'm not supposed to spend this, but I will. We're
Speaker 1: at it negotiating. I think mostly because we like each
Speaker 1: other and have you know, have enjoy things and have
Speaker 1: hope in each other. For some reason, I think that
Speaker 1: maybe gives us this false sense of hope maybe. And
Speaker 1: we also don't have a political apper, Like the Republicans
Speaker 1: are doing the will of the people that they represent
Speaker 1: and they're like guessing each other up. The the Democrats
Speaker 1: are just they're to pretend to give lip service to
Speaker 1: what we're doing, but they're actually representative of big corporations.
Speaker 1: So it's just yeah, it's it's not happening. We're fucked.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, yeah, I don't know, something big has to change,
Speaker 1: but it feels like and it does feel like if
Speaker 1: it's either something big changes and or we get fascism
Speaker 1: at some point in like the more near term future. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I don't know. And it is like it's like
Speaker 1: I don't have the imagination having grown up in America,
Speaker 1: I don't have the imagination for like what it is general,
Speaker 1: like what that looks like. Yeah, it really does need
Speaker 1: to be like a general fucking strike. We're not going
Speaker 1: to get to a hundred years before another global fascist superpower, right, No,
Speaker 1: We're literally we're literally not going to make it. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: to the late thirties, Come on out of here. How
Speaker 1: long did it take? Actually it was it was I
Speaker 1: guess Mussolini was first. Yeah, early thirties, I was I
Speaker 1: was thinking from the edge, I guess from the we
Speaker 1: have still you know, mid forties, Okay, yeah, that would be.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying we're not We're never not going to
Speaker 1: get a chance, folks, a century of of not having
Speaker 1: most of the globe roll ruled by fascism. Right, all right,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. And
Speaker 1: we're back, and so is Barney. And that is what
Speaker 1: we need to be paying attention to right now. The
Speaker 1: redesign was released in the past week, and instead of
Speaker 1: the costume that was basically like a seventy pound sauna trap.
Speaker 1: I can't one of the worst looking things to be
Speaker 1: wearing that kind of like big Bird looks hard, but
Speaker 1: Barney just I don't know, it looks like it's all
Speaker 1: made of like a really warm that like there's no
Speaker 1: looseness to it, there's no bagginess. It's from my own
Speaker 1: experience having to dress up as the Toys r Us
Speaker 1: Giraffe when I was younger. What, yeah, I was, you
Speaker 1: were Jeffery. I was Jeffery in Douglas and Queen's. I
Speaker 1: was just super tall. Yeah, it's pretty tall. I couldn't
Speaker 1: get out of the doors without going forward, like the
Speaker 1: head straight right. Wait, So it was a one person operation.
Speaker 1: One person operation. There was a fan inside that didn't work,
Speaker 1: and it was extreme because I swift shifts. I switched
Speaker 1: shifts from someone so was like summer and I just
Speaker 1: like basically had to put it on while it's like
Speaker 1: still wet from this person person the last person. It
Speaker 1: was horrible and then the kids were really horrible and
Speaker 1: the parents were really horrible. You know what when when
Speaker 1: it's summer in queens. What you need is yes, oh
Speaker 1: my god, that I mean, I can't imagine, like I
Speaker 1: don't even want to. Well, they would, they would. Like
Speaker 1: one thing that was funny was thinking about like how
Speaker 1: the different types of people who would decide where my
Speaker 1: balls must be, so like they would like where to
Speaker 1: find my eye, Like the smart people would try to
Speaker 1: find my eyes first, then nowhere to kick me in
Speaker 1: my balls or try to kick in there was no way.
Speaker 1: It's it was completely steel hard and that that encasement,
Speaker 1: and but they tried, and it was just like interesting
Speaker 1: to see what people would come up with, including the adults. Yeah,
Speaker 1: with the adults went for your balls too. There is
Speaker 1: something like in eight in children at of a certain
Speaker 1: age that they're just going for the ball. Yeah, there
Speaker 1: were some adults that would like give the kids pointers
Speaker 1: how to go after Jeffrey Queens, do better, Do better, Queens, Queen.
Speaker 1: This Douglas and Queens is this area where we're like
Speaker 1: right on the border of Long Island. Yeah, Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: a lot of like you know, you got commuters coming
Speaker 1: in to kickt awesome meat heads coming in and like
Speaker 1: someone's like, oh, they're they're beating up Jeffrey called the
Speaker 1: police and I'm up, parents says, I am the police.
Speaker 1: Technically I wasn't beaten by a cop, I think, and
Speaker 1: it's always the US future cop for sure. All Right,
Speaker 1: So Barney's back. They're gonna do a cartoon character animated series.
Speaker 1: He looks just so wide awake, I guess the way
Speaker 1: I would describe it not referring to drugs. But yeah,
Speaker 1: they're gonna be releasing Barney movies, YouTube content, toys, plus
Speaker 1: apparel and accessories for adult fans, which I think means
Speaker 1: like we'll get the original Barney on on some T
Speaker 1: shirts and ship. But I don't know, is it. It's
Speaker 1: always tough to say, like is this something that is happening?
Speaker 1: Is this something they're trying to make happen. I feel
Speaker 1: like seeing any indication that they're Barney hunger thirst out there.
Speaker 1: I feel like with kids, I P it's like always
Speaker 1: a slam dunk because it's like no offense to any
Speaker 1: fucking two year old listening to the show right now.
Speaker 1: But they're not They're not very discerning, and so it's
Speaker 1: really just like the only thing is like whatever parents
Speaker 1: can handle, and there's probably enough parents that are like
Speaker 1: have fun enough memories of Barney. Yeah, like compared to
Speaker 1: your baseline, you know, non previous I p pitch for
Speaker 1: children's content, you know, it's it's he's enough of a shape. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The songs are fine. The songs are catchy bangers, two
Speaker 1: year old bangers, Toddler Bay, Nurse Daniel Kaluya we've talked
Speaker 1: about did come out like I think a couple of
Speaker 1: years back and was just like, yeah, I am making
Speaker 1: a Barney movie and everyone was like, what do you mean,
Speaker 1: why why are you doing that? And his answer was
Speaker 1: not satisfying. He was like, oh, well, you know I
Speaker 1: love you. You love me when you say you love
Speaker 1: me too, that's one of the first songs I remember.
Speaker 1: And what happens when that isn't true? I thought that
Speaker 1: was really heartbreaking. It's like, yeah, man, that is that
Speaker 1: is fucking dark. Now let's go back to the question
Speaker 1: of what is this movie about my friend? Because that's
Speaker 1: just what you just described, is a child finding out
Speaker 1: that they're not loved. Yeah, that's that. Yeah, that really
Speaker 1: hit me. I need a moment. I feel like skinnam
Speaker 1: Rink like kind of already did something with this like that,
Speaker 1: So like my idea old version of what it was
Speaker 1: gonna be. I haven't seen Skinner Marink, but like what
Speaker 1: I've heard of, like the promise of Skinn Marink, I
Speaker 1: feel like is what I had in mind for this
Speaker 1: from him. But I don't know. I think, you know,
Speaker 1: just Barney. It's just do a sort of Barney versus philosophraptors. Yeah, time, yeah,
Speaker 1: time drop him in. Yeah, and it's not it's not
Speaker 1: fluff in there because when I first picture that, I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: the last raptors are biting him and there's just like
Speaker 1: stuffing coming out. But no, yeah, yeah, and it's not
Speaker 1: just purple all the way down either. There's flesh in
Speaker 1: their friends. Yeah, it's dark. It's dark, but it's ultimately uplifting.
Speaker 1: He's gotta gotta be along for the ride. It was
Speaker 1: the same plot as Cross the Park where he Barney
Speaker 1: comes in and like started snapping necks at the end. Yeah,
Speaker 1: kids are up for that. So basically what they did
Speaker 1: to Transformers just like, yeah, let's just make these toys murderers.
Speaker 1: But you can't have Barney on Jurassic Park because Barney
Speaker 1: boy dinosaur and it's all women and as we know,
Speaker 1: Barney is fucking concert, so like that would be a problem.
Speaker 1: You know, nature will find a way as especially if
Speaker 1: Barney's at Barney Dinosaurs. Especially there's new Barney that is
Speaker 1: clearly on crystal meth. Yeah, you're gonna have a population
Speaker 1: control problems in that island. It's a it's a perfect sequel,
Speaker 1: just like Purple otherwise lifelike red ord philociraptors for the sequel. Yeah,
Speaker 1: how how do they get there? I mean they were
Speaker 1: blue in the in the Jurassic World one, I think
Speaker 1: versus Purple. This is great. Yeah, whoever wins, we actually
Speaker 1: we just kind of hope Barney wins. Yeah, Chris Pratt's Dinosaurs,
Speaker 1: Chris Brett's Blue Back to the Blue as a lazo Raptor. Yeah,
Speaker 1: a cab includes definitely includes Chris Prett's Blue the Lazzer Raptor. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Well the sandwich chain equivalent of Barney the Dinosaurs subway
Speaker 1: is up for sale. Yes, yeah, also like made from
Speaker 1: a fluffy plastic plastic synthetic component. But you know, just
Speaker 1: the rubbery is sandwiches like a still kind of down.
Speaker 1: I'll funk with a wonder bread. It can't be worse
Speaker 1: than like McDonald's bun or you know, I don't know. No, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it just doesn't like, Wow, my sense is enough
Speaker 1: for me to like ignore that I'm eating something that
Speaker 1: barely qualifies this food, whereas McDonald's just has so much
Speaker 1: it's so good, it's so good and whatever chemicals they've that.
Speaker 1: Like we're on that Ohio train on the way to
Speaker 1: beat the McDonald's headquarters. Like that's what I worked my
Speaker 1: senses into believing that, like this was fine dining. Yeah,
Speaker 1: subway just like they do have something like that. Because
Speaker 1: when you walk by a subway and smell the bread
Speaker 1: the quote bread baking, Yeah, it does trick you into
Speaker 1: being like that smells like food. That smells like food
Speaker 1: that I want to eat. But anyways, not much to
Speaker 1: say about them except that they may be up for
Speaker 1: sale's yeah, so any any buyers out there? Yes, I
Speaker 1: feel like I got enough punch, I got enough stamps
Speaker 1: saved up. I think I'm good. You can buy it.
Speaker 1: I think, for at least if I did at my
Speaker 1: glove glove compartment, I think I could. I think I'd
Speaker 1: come up with like the subway and not be redeemable
Speaker 1: for some majority owner. Yeah, so I just need a
Speaker 1: little bit. Would be the first thing you change with
Speaker 1: your new ownership. Oh my god, nothing, Well, I gotta
Speaker 1: stop giving out those stamps because I don't want to
Speaker 1: get your post. That's right. I'm pulling, pulling the ladder
Speaker 1: up behind me, just like Nicky Man. That's right. And
Speaker 1: you would get a bag of lace and a stale
Speaker 1: chocolate chip cookie with your sun chips Sun Chips. Baby, yeah,
Speaker 1: bake Laze. I don't know why I did it to myself,
Speaker 1: but like when I was eating it subways subway, I
Speaker 1: was like, all right, might as well go whole hog
Speaker 1: and just like not enjoy this meal at all and
Speaker 1: and eating like baked laze. I think what it is
Speaker 1: is like it bake lays, like more vegetables than you
Speaker 1: get at any other fast food place, not like a lot,
Speaker 1: and it's not like healthy, but more vegetables. I think
Speaker 1: it is like it just wings off enough of the
Speaker 1: margin of like this is better. It is indisputably better
Speaker 1: than off their fast food for you. Doesn't mean it's good,
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean it's terrible, whatever what you want, but
Speaker 1: I think that's it. I think it's it's it's like
Speaker 1: lets people live the lie that they want to live,
Speaker 1: and that is probably why it's in business. I think
Speaker 1: I'm mad because I was like, my go to for
Speaker 1: like most of my teen years was the meatball sub
Speaker 1: And then that was the one that when the information
Speaker 1: came out about like what what was unhealthy about subway,
Speaker 1: they were like, yo, I don't think we need to
Speaker 1: tell you guys this, but and I was like what me?
Speaker 1: And the other one was the Tuna, which was Gray
Speaker 1: Loves Still Rides for the Tuna, which they were like,
Speaker 1: it's actually not tuna. There's turtle in there. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know, man, all right, I mean, come on, it's
Speaker 1: it's a two to say I wish for like three dollars.
Speaker 1: Of course there's turtle in theres. You should be be
Speaker 1: glad you're getting turtle. Yeah, the turtles, the truffle of
Speaker 1: the sea, that's right. Yeah, it's I never really taste
Speaker 1: any turtle, alright, Wrath, It's been a pleasure having you
Speaker 1: on the daily Zeitgeist? Where can people find you? Follow
Speaker 1: you all that good stuff? We have a New York,
Speaker 1: New New York City radio show on w b a
Speaker 1: point five FM. We're also streaming on w b I
Speaker 1: dot org and on all the socials under Beyond the
Speaker 1: Pale FM, and it's it's uh, not your average show.
Speaker 1: It's the show like radical left to Jews and that prospective.
Speaker 1: And sometimes, you know, people come to me and it
Speaker 1: makes sense, you know, like that Jewish play was banned
Speaker 1: or there was you know, any kind of issue around
Speaker 1: like Palestinians and Israelis and stuff like. That's easy. But
Speaker 1: then people come to me with really interesting topics and
Speaker 1: I don't know how to make them Jewish. So it's
Speaker 1: fun to watch how I how I put a square
Speaker 1: thing in a round bag in a round hole. But
Speaker 1: but that's where you find me. Beyond the Pale FMS
Speaker 1: on Facebook, Twitter, on Instagram. There you go. And is
Speaker 1: there a work of media that you've been enjoying tweet
Speaker 1: or otherwise, Well, there's two. There's one real quick one
Speaker 1: is at Athena Coalition. We we published a Super Bowl ad,
Speaker 1: we took on ad and we remixed it, So look
Speaker 1: out for that at Athena for all social media. Scarlett Johansson,
Speaker 1: Colin Colin, Colin Colin jobs host or something who. Right now,
Speaker 1: we're on the anniversary of New York Kicking out Amazon
Speaker 1: from Queens, and he was one of the people who
Speaker 1: are during Sadnite Live kind of attacked us for saying
Speaker 1: that we like like paraded the right wing talking points
Speaker 1: about losing jobs, which is complete bullshit. Really yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: they're all They're all, yeah, that makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 1: It's one of those Harvard ass VC funded like if
Speaker 1: there's a if there's a human being, who is he
Speaker 1: almost married? Yeah? Yeah for sure. And then the other
Speaker 1: one is this Buster right, Like I don't have the
Speaker 1: link or anything, but it's like Trevor Noah bumps into
Speaker 1: Buster a rhyme somewhere and it's just beautiful and they
Speaker 1: just go into Busters Versus and it's just amazing and
Speaker 1: people please find it. It'll heal your soul, right amazing? Andrew,
Speaker 1: where can you will find you? And what is the
Speaker 1: media you've been enjoying? Podcast? Is yoss racist? I regrettably
Speaker 1: more back on Twitter since the last time we spoke,
Speaker 1: just because I don't know, I'm a fucking du fist.
Speaker 1: But it's it is okay because it looks like Ellen
Speaker 1: is edging towards getting rid of blocking people, and that
Speaker 1: will definitively be the straw that breaks in Camel's back.
Speaker 1: I checked blocks personally done. My, oh my god, you've
Speaker 1: blocked people. Yeah, let me see what I just posted it. Congratulations,
Speaker 1: it's it's really it's I will say. The changes Elon's
Speaker 1: made have made it easier to identify people that need
Speaker 1: to be blocked. So like Eddie, Eddie, Twitter, blue Folks,
Speaker 1: anyone who's like in his mentions, given the cry laughing
Speaker 1: of o G, it's just such an easy instant block.
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. Anyway, so good job, I guess um. So anyway,
Speaker 1: my my media, I haven't been enjoying. As a tweet
Speaker 1: from friend of the show, if you walk away, he
Speaker 1: does a thing where for Black History Months he usually
Speaker 1: makes these lists. This month, I don't know if he
Speaker 1: does it every year. He's doing cartoon characters that are
Speaker 1: in his mind canonically black, and I just want to say,
Speaker 1: my enjoyment of this is definitely cancelable. So I guess
Speaker 1: it is what it is. But for for Day fourteen,
Speaker 1: he said, uh, Day fourteen, Hong Kong FOOLI is canonically
Speaker 1: blackfully walks and that Dragonfly Jones could run, And truly,
Speaker 1: I don't know why that actually fixes that racist as character.
Speaker 1: For me, it's so terrible, but that was my absolute
Speaker 1: gut reaction, and I don't know. I have to live
Speaker 1: with myself, so I haven't worse than everyone else. I apologize,
Speaker 1: but it did make me laugh. Amazing to media, I've
Speaker 1: been enjoying. I finally saw a triangle said necessarily enjoyed
Speaker 1: that enjoyed a tweet from the Kid Marrow super Bowl
Speaker 1: Ads just visual DJ Khaled Songs. You can find me
Speaker 1: on Twitter at Jack Underscore O'Brien. You can find us
Speaker 1: on Twitter at Daily Zeitgeist. We're at the Daily Zeitgeist
