Speaker 1: talented Maggie Man. Cheer for myself as exactly. That's right,
Speaker 1: that's what I Instead of having self esteem, I like
Speaker 1: to just say the word sometimes self esteem and figure
Speaker 1: some sometime it might catch on. But how are you doing, Maggie.
Speaker 1: You do have miniatures behind you, so does that mean
Speaker 1: you're I'm pretty good. I'm doing all right. Yeah. This
Speaker 1: is a just like the best place in the house
Speaker 1: to record. So it's nice to be able to see
Speaker 1: the reflection of any house behind me. Yeah, it's a
Speaker 1: great many house. Thank you. Any any new developments in
Speaker 1: the world of the miniatures that are happening in your
Speaker 1: in your household? Um, let's see, this house is pretty
Speaker 1: much done. So I'm starting up a cafe, my Yeah,
Speaker 1: my dolls are going to have a cafe pretty soon. Amazing.
Speaker 1: And I'm thinking about there's like a lot of not
Speaker 1: custom but like newer I guess custom kind of dolls
Speaker 1: coming out, like the inspiring women and stuff, and I'm
Speaker 1: kind of thinking of getting them and unboxing them and
Speaker 1: putting them into the new things, and which is not
Speaker 1: what you're supposed to be doing. Those are like stuff
Speaker 1: that you put in a little case, yeah, just in
Speaker 1: case you know, something goes awry and you need to
Speaker 1: sell it. But right next to your beanie babies. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna take them out and you know, spread
Speaker 1: of loose with all the dolls. Yeah, I love it.
Speaker 1: There you go. Is all the ministry stuff handcrafted or
Speaker 1: how how much of that is made versus acquired? So
Speaker 1: see the dolls and the stuff that comes with them
Speaker 1: is all made. And I also got like super into
Speaker 1: these mini brands that are the you know, tiny little
Speaker 1: brand name things. But there's a lot of stuff that
Speaker 1: I make on my own. Like I don't know if
Speaker 1: you can see the bathroom down here, that is so cool.
Speaker 1: The toilet back there is a glade plug in that
Speaker 1: I repurpose. Amazing. That is really cool. I love that
Speaker 1: it looks like a fancy toilet. Oh. Also, a glade
Speaker 1: plug in toilet would probably be a successful product. Yeah
Speaker 1: that sounds huge. Electrocute a couple of people, but otherwise
Speaker 1: I feel like that would work really well. Yeah, Like,
Speaker 1: don't you want to toilet the smellst like mountain breeze
Speaker 1: or whatever. Yes, yes, I do. All right, Maggie, We're
Speaker 1: gonna get to know you a little bit better in
Speaker 1: a moment. First, we're gonna tell our listeners a couple
Speaker 1: of things we're talking about. We're gonna talk about police
Speaker 1: in competence and true crime. We're going to talk about
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court incompetence and being just too old for
Speaker 1: very basic security precautions. They're like, we don't know what
Speaker 1: the heck happened with all these document leaks. We just
Speaker 1: leave our sensitive documents in a bag in the hallway
Speaker 1: for real. That's like it's called a burn bag. And
Speaker 1: like some of them actually do the thing and like
Speaker 1: shread the stuff in the burn bag, and some of
Speaker 1: them just leave it in the hallway because they're old,
Speaker 1: old people who just they're not built for it. That
Speaker 1: we we're gonna talk about. Might we might talk about
Speaker 1: Hogwarts legacy or he might have heard us talk about
Speaker 1: that yesterday on the trending episode. Oh did you already?
Speaker 1: Oh dang, oh man you would? Oh? Daniel cut that
Speaker 1: We time travel, sir, We time travel on this show.
Speaker 1: We record the trending after the thing. Justin please cut
Speaker 1: that embarrassing miss by me? What are you talking about?
Speaker 1: So foolish? It stays? Super producer Justin has Dart decreed
Speaker 1: that it stays, and I'm gonna second that. Please tweet
Speaker 1: at me. I'm embarrassed. And c is changing their policy
Speaker 1: to charge more for seats that aren't shitty, which is cool, Yeah, awesome, well,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that plenty more. But first, Maggie, we
Speaker 1: do like to ask Eric guests, what is something from
Speaker 1: your search history other than the inspiring women dolls, which
Speaker 1: I feel like I already talked about. I was searching
Speaker 1: for work from home gigs. I'm looking for another side gig,
Speaker 1: and I would like to do that from home. There
Speaker 1: you go. I don't want to be leaving my house
Speaker 1: putting on pants, you know nothing. I just want to
Speaker 1: be home. I'll take care of whatever data entry or
Speaker 1: whatnot you'll need to do and close my laptop and
Speaker 1: be done with it at the end of the day.
Speaker 1: That my life could use that kind of structure, you know.
Speaker 1: I love that for you, and I love that for
Speaker 1: the inspiring women dolls as well. I'm going to take
Speaker 1: them out of their boxes just to be working data
Speaker 1: and free jobs. That's right. What are inspiring women dolls
Speaker 1: like part of a brand? Like is it Barbie? Is
Speaker 1: it an American? It's Mattel And so they have like
Speaker 1: a Bessie Coleman, who is the first black woman to
Speaker 1: have a pilot license fly plane, then Madam C. J. Walker,
Speaker 1: who was the first black woman millionaire, nice ruining all
Speaker 1: of our edges, but she she got that money, So
Speaker 1: I'm not mad at of my edges will never be
Speaker 1: the same, but I'm not mad out of for it.
Speaker 1: What is something you think is overrated? Uh? Honestly, restaurants? Okay,
Speaker 1: I never left. I never went back after the pandemic
Speaker 1: because I'm naturally a germ poe and I never felt
Speaker 1: really comfortable about, you know, people just handling my food.
Speaker 1: I've worked in restaurants, I've seen I didn't seeing some
Speaker 1: ship right, And I worked at a restaurant recently and
Speaker 1: just stuff that I washed when I cook, they weren't
Speaker 1: washing when they cooked. So I was just like, I
Speaker 1: don't understand why. And I mean, I'm a good cook.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna sit here and you know glad y'all
Speaker 1: say that I'm not. I'm a good cook. So I
Speaker 1: just don't like to. I I just don't want to
Speaker 1: be out there subjecting myself to you know, who knows
Speaker 1: what y'all have out here that you didn't wash off
Speaker 1: and that you didn't clean, and you know, to have
Speaker 1: the meal not be as good as I know I
Speaker 1: could probably do at home. Yeah, that's not everyone. Wolves
Speaker 1: gang Cock probably rock my ship, but I mean the
Speaker 1: rest of y'all. P g I Friday, don't try it
Speaker 1: with me. Yeah, I will say. I went to a
Speaker 1: will not name the spice. I'm not trying to drag them,
Speaker 1: but I wouldn't got k barbecue at a point that
Speaker 1: felt safe during the pandemic, and I just got a
Speaker 1: glimpse into the kitchen and where I was like, that
Speaker 1: doesn't look right. I'm not okay with this. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: me things that it has something to do with a
Speaker 1: little Pando slide, if you will. Yeah, just being understaffed
Speaker 1: the yeah, yeah, just people trying to like make do
Speaker 1: with way less or trying to undersell or or rather
Speaker 1: like under pay their their overworked staff. It's just like
Speaker 1: this is too much. I don't vibe with us at all.
Speaker 1: When I gets to that point when it's like, oh
Speaker 1: well it's good enough, that's that's when I'm out, because
Speaker 1: like good enough is not you know good. I feel
Speaker 1: the only person I've talked to who like worked at
Speaker 1: a restaurant and just got a whole new appreciation for
Speaker 1: how good restaurant food is. Like I loved the restaurants
Speaker 1: I eta. I was like, you give me more of
Speaker 1: these fries. They are so good. I think it was
Speaker 1: also I like worked at a time when I was
Speaker 1: like young and very hungry all the time, and so
Speaker 1: I was just like working around this food that looked
Speaker 1: delicious and just like wanting to eat it off of
Speaker 1: the customers plates the entire times around. It was just
Speaker 1: so I just came worked at an Italian restaurant in Kentucky,
Speaker 1: so like, this is not gonna be lixing in Kentucky,
Speaker 1: this is not gonna be your finest dining establishment. I
Speaker 1: came away from that ship like I started as a dishwasher,
Speaker 1: I was a bus boy. I came away from that
Speaker 1: just being like, man, Italian food is so fucking good.
Speaker 1: Like that was my That was my takeaway. Maybe I
Speaker 1: wasn't paying close enough attention or just don't have a
Speaker 1: proper appreciation for how hard germs are going to kill
Speaker 1: me one day. But you're like, oh, man, can I
Speaker 1: have a bide of that lasagn rito? Yeah? That looks
Speaker 1: good wrapped. I didn't know. WEDN, Kentucky has an interesting
Speaker 1: relationship to Italian food because they also have like the
Speaker 1: only fast food Italian restaurant that I'm aware, like drive
Speaker 1: through Italian restaurants called Frizzoli's. Yeah, they have like baked
Speaker 1: z D. Like the pasta is always through, Yeah, drive
Speaker 1: through baked z D, drive from pizza. Like it's just
Speaker 1: treated as yet another fast food establishment down there. It's
Speaker 1: just another thing they could do. Yeah, yeah, that's that's
Speaker 1: sitting in the rack for like thirteen hours all day,
Speaker 1: just sitting under a heat land Like, yeah, you want
Speaker 1: the big z D. It's actually good. I mean it's not.
Speaker 1: It's not good, but it's better than you would expect.
Speaker 1: I think wildly low expectations for my food, you know.
Speaker 1: I like, I like to say, you have a wide palette.
Speaker 1: How about that wide talent that goes up and down
Speaker 1: the ladder of quality. I think that's a good way
Speaker 1: to be. I support that as a matter of fact, Jack,
Speaker 1: I'm turning the story around. Good for you until you
Speaker 1: try to there we go. I'm with that. I'm with that.
Speaker 1: And when I lived there in the nineties there there
Speaker 1: was like a competitor fast food Italian chain, So I
Speaker 1: assume this was like something that was happening nationwide. But
Speaker 1: everyone else is like, you know, what, what the are
Speaker 1: you talking about? No one's gonna like eat pasta out
Speaker 1: of a drive through. That's so so strange. Hey, hey,
Speaker 1: let they who has not eaten taco about cast the
Speaker 1: first exactly? Okay, it's all none of it's convenient. Come on,
Speaker 1: come on, we've all been there. It was like your reader,
Speaker 1: that's really funny. That genius. Honestly, I'm worried that that
Speaker 1: Instagram is going to hear that and be like, you know,
Speaker 1: we need to incept that into some Italian restaurants. Brain.
Speaker 1: Some pizza yellow just woke up in a hot sweat?
Speaker 1: Did you guess with stuffed shells? Ever as a kid
Speaker 1: the pasta shells? Sure? Yeah, I made him. I made
Speaker 1: him like a month ago. Okay, oh nice? Yeah, what
Speaker 1: were we stuffed with? What we're talking about with, Let's see,
Speaker 1: was a seafood situation so I could crab and shrimp beautiful? Okay, yeah, beautiful,
Speaker 1: it's always could never never. I think I was caught
Speaker 1: just having a sense memory of having stuffed shells from
Speaker 1: Frizzoli's and being like, this is not good. I think
Speaker 1: they think they were wise enough to not add, to
Speaker 1: not take the shell side of it to a seafood
Speaker 1: component of what is being stuffed in there. They were
Speaker 1: just like ricotta, friend will find in these, No they don't.
Speaker 1: You can't do that the next day, you know, no,
Speaker 1: absolutely not. I've done that stuff shells with with just
Speaker 1: like ricotta and parmesan sitting in a whole bed of
Speaker 1: tomato sauce and it's like you eat them once and
Speaker 1: you're like that was way too much cheese. And then
Speaker 1: they sit in the freezer for like a month and
Speaker 1: you're like, you know what, I'm never going to eat
Speaker 1: these again. Okay, they might as was too much sauce too.
Speaker 1: It's just like, yeah, the way the way I've seen
Speaker 1: them prepared, it's just in a vat of sauce that
Speaker 1: you need some free breadsticks, which Frizzoli's will give you.
Speaker 1: So stop that. Shut up just saying Meg, what if
Speaker 1: something you think is underrated? Underrated? I think is venmoing
Speaker 1: your black friends and cohorts on black events, on holidays
Speaker 1: and celebrations. That ship is lit and it's tight, and
Speaker 1: it never gets old, never gets sold. It always getting
Speaker 1: a Venmo. It's like, sorry for my ancestors, I'd never
Speaker 1: get tired of that. Not enough. It's always fun, it's
Speaker 1: always good. I remember once was it Black History Month
Speaker 1: or was it Juneteenth? It was something and I like
Speaker 1: jokingly was like, I will absolve you from your white
Speaker 1: guilt for today, and by people sent me Venmo's and
Speaker 1: I was just like, okay, my ch ow, you're one
Speaker 1: of the good ones. And it was you know, I
Speaker 1: got some the next day too, and I wasn't like
Speaker 1: this is over. I was like, no, this is tight.
Speaker 1: Just happened. You know. Black History months should be the
Speaker 1: time that you should be Venmo and your black friends
Speaker 1: out of nowhere because who doesn't like to get a
Speaker 1: Venmo out of nowhere? But you on a subscription service
Speaker 1: where you can venmo me daily, daily subscription. Follow your heart,
Speaker 1: I mean all your heart. Get the patre going support
Speaker 1: and support should be constant. Let's be real. Month, it's
Speaker 1: not quite exactly the white guilt patriot. I know you
Speaker 1: felt insolved last month, but this is what have you
Speaker 1: done this? Thank you? Thank you? All right, Maggie Mays
Speaker 1: Venmo will be in the foot notes prominently displayed top
Speaker 1: foot top. All right, we're gonna take a quick break
Speaker 1: and we'll be back to talk about some news. And
Speaker 1: we're back. And so I had a connection. I was
Speaker 1: reading about police in Ohio shooting and killing a twenty
Speaker 1: year old who was cleaning his dead grandmother's apartment out
Speaker 1: and a neighbor like saw him and his parents in
Speaker 1: the grandma's apartment and called the cops, which don't do that.
Speaker 1: What do you think you're preventing? The police then claimed
Speaker 1: that this kid ran from them or this man ran
Speaker 1: from them, started using as minivan as a weapon. They
Speaker 1: released the body cam video on Friday, because that's the
Speaker 1: day they dropped incriminating video. Now, I guess, but now
Speaker 1: they're like saying, we did nothing wrong. Like the video
Speaker 1: is like very shaky and dark and it's impossible to
Speaker 1: tell what's happening. But that's the only kind of video
Speaker 1: that cause for It's like, we will release the video.
Speaker 1: It's like you can't even see anything, So congrats on
Speaker 1: doing your job, I suppose. But police are like under
Speaker 1: a national spotlight and just can't stop shooting people to
Speaker 1: death for no good reason. And I don't know if
Speaker 1: it's because the national spotlight is not critical enough or
Speaker 1: it felt like the national media coverage of Tyree Nichols
Speaker 1: was like, all right, well they've been arrested, so we're
Speaker 1: good here and not, you know, the criminal justice system
Speaker 1: is a fucking crime against humanity and needs to be
Speaker 1: dismantled immediately. But so in that I heard an ad
Speaker 1: for a true crime podcast that it was just quote
Speaker 1: after quote of victim family members being like, they told
Speaker 1: us she'd be home and not to worry about it.
Speaker 1: The police completely dropped this lead. The police forgot to
Speaker 1: interrogate the most important witness. And it occurred to me,
Speaker 1: like that is all that true crime really is. Like
Speaker 1: I've heard a lot of people speculate about why true crime,
Speaker 1: I'm is suddenly very popular, and I never really connected
Speaker 1: it to the rising awareness of just wide ranging police incompetence,
Speaker 1: just like deep and thorough and wide ranging police in competence.
Speaker 1: Like Serial Is the story of the police completely fucking
Speaker 1: up that investigation up and Vanished was a massive hit
Speaker 1: true crime podcast, and it's the story of like the
Speaker 1: police sucking up that investigation to degree that I suspected
Speaker 1: they were involved in the killing and covering something up,
Speaker 1: like after the first season, and then like because there
Speaker 1: was pressure put on them to solve the crime because
Speaker 1: they were kind of implicated, they solved it, and it
Speaker 1: was just like something I'm related. But that's how incompetent
Speaker 1: they were, is that they appeared to be like hiding something,
Speaker 1: And I just I wonder if that is why true
Speaker 1: crime is seeing this massive surgeon popularity at this time
Speaker 1: when we're also starting to get just more and more
Speaker 1: or evidence that the police tend the police tend to
Speaker 1: fall between completely incompetent, like we've talked about last week,
Speaker 1: how they solve two percent of violent crimes that fall
Speaker 1: to them and themselves racist and like violent predators, and
Speaker 1: so like true crime just tells stories that are more
Speaker 1: accurate two lived experience, which is that I don't know,
Speaker 1: I think movies and TV shows really still have this
Speaker 1: idea of a safety net and that like you have
Speaker 1: to outsmart the police. Like the standard is the police
Speaker 1: are going to like catch the criminal or investigate it,
Speaker 1: and it's just not it's not the case, and it
Speaker 1: doesn't like it probably resonates with people less and less
Speaker 1: as we get just more and more evidence. M Well,
Speaker 1: I feel like we live in a heavily d i
Speaker 1: y culture, right and seeing that these crimes are not
Speaker 1: getting solved, and then knowing that the people who we
Speaker 1: have tasked to solve these crimes they're not doing it,
Speaker 1: or that their wholesale fucking up or whatnot. That leaves
Speaker 1: a whole new opportunity for people to go d I
Speaker 1: y their own crime, which is pretty much sereal, like
Speaker 1: you put whatever crime you want on your Pinterest, like
Speaker 1: I solve this. Like if the police can't do it,
Speaker 1: and this person with a podcast can do it, what's
Speaker 1: to stop you know, Amy and miss Skogan from saying, well,
Speaker 1: I could do that too, Like anybody who watches like
Speaker 1: What's going on or watches what's unfolding, you know, our
Speaker 1: authorities are nept and you know, I've got a microphone
Speaker 1: and internet connection, Like anyone feels like they can solve
Speaker 1: a crime, right truly. And I think there's also like
Speaker 1: the belief that, like, and anyone can be the victim
Speaker 1: of a crime because like I don't know, crime and
Speaker 1: becoming a victim is just a reality. And it's like
Speaker 1: it's almost I feel when I listen to a true
Speaker 1: crime thing, it's like more, Oh, the world really is
Speaker 1: you versus the criminal, because the police are not uneffective
Speaker 1: like they're they're certainly a wild card that can be introduced,
Speaker 1: but they're not actually doing an effective job. Of solving
Speaker 1: the crime, they're just solving it if attention gets drawn
Speaker 1: to it. That's a that's a really frustrating part about
Speaker 1: the about the how much more technology and how much
Speaker 1: more money we put into policing and just like honestly
Speaker 1: like warfare and surveillance and all of that in general,
Speaker 1: is that like I would not hope, but would think
Speaker 1: that we'd be more in a minority minority report side
Speaker 1: of things at this point, where like we're not predicting crimes,
Speaker 1: but the fact that we need to so desperately chase
Speaker 1: people down and inflict violence on them when you can
Speaker 1: probably and again not really not really like an advertisement
Speaker 1: for police, but the fact that you can probably find
Speaker 1: people after the fact and approach them in a more
Speaker 1: like safe and structured manner, And like, you know, we're
Speaker 1: so surveilled that like, why do we have to resort
Speaker 1: to the only the most violent ways to apprehend quote
Speaker 1: unquote criminals when what is happening could just be like
Speaker 1: looked at maybe twelve hours later and then figured out
Speaker 1: and been like, oh, maybe we didn't need to actually
Speaker 1: like chase this person down with a car and like
Speaker 1: cause a ten car pile up because we were on
Speaker 1: like a police chase or something like that. Like it
Speaker 1: is just so surprising that we have not thought to
Speaker 1: work smarter and simply or like shoot more people. That's
Speaker 1: the that's the result of this. Yeah, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's I feel like I would not be surprised if
Speaker 1: there was some agreement between local news, police and like
Speaker 1: advertisers that like you have to get into one chase
Speaker 1: that like last two hours every every couple of months
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, because that is like still a stop
Speaker 1: everything everybody turns on the TV much what's happening. I
Speaker 1: think that falls into the category of like would would
Speaker 1: be shocked but not surprised, Like the fact that the
Speaker 1: fact that you see cops out there looking for speeding
Speaker 1: tickets starting on like the twenty every month. Like everything
Speaker 1: has a quota. There has to be x amount of thing.
Speaker 1: And it used to be because you know, we need
Speaker 1: money for a certain thing, or it's still that, but
Speaker 1: it's just now it's like, well, that quota also applies
Speaker 1: to how much news coverage certain things get. If we're
Speaker 1: not covering the police enough, then the public don't think
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah and it's like this is
Speaker 1: deeply sad and deeply disturbing, but not surprising. But it's
Speaker 1: also in those situations where like during the whole to
Speaker 1: fund the police thing, we had so many different ideas
Speaker 1: of who could take their play, like don't like call
Speaker 1: in mental health people, calling these people, call these people
Speaker 1: instead of the police. So those like high speed chases
Speaker 1: and stuff like who are you going to call for that? Right,
Speaker 1: that's a good question. So that's the kind of thing
Speaker 1: that you have to show to show that the police
Speaker 1: are necessary, because who's gonna You're gonna call a mental
Speaker 1: health professional into start yelling stuff over a bull Horn's
Speaker 1: not gonna work. So there's a couple cities, yeah, I
Speaker 1: believe Dayton, Ohio another place where I lived, and uh Milwaukee,
Speaker 1: Wisconsin have both experiment with just not chasing, just not
Speaker 1: getting into police chases because people kept getting hit by
Speaker 1: police cars. And just like you said, like, yeah, we're
Speaker 1: just trusting that they'll be able to track the person
Speaker 1: down later or that it's not worth it too, because
Speaker 1: when you engaged in a police chase, like you're putting
Speaker 1: so many people's lives at risk, like so much, so
Speaker 1: much so, all right, the Supreme Court. There's a there's
Speaker 1: a mystery that it's like, I don't know, an investigation
Speaker 1: that's happening into the leak of the Supreme Court's Roe v.
Speaker 1: Wade overturning, which is the one thing about that decision
Speaker 1: that no one gives a funk about. That I know
Speaker 1: that I can't imagine anyone giving a funk about. But
Speaker 1: Supreme Court martial, which is Supreme Court Martial is like
Speaker 1: a great NBA nickname somebody needs to come up with.
Speaker 1: But it's also an official name, an official title that
Speaker 1: someone named Gayl Curly has and Supreme Court Martial. Gayl
Speaker 1: Curly came up empty and couldn't figure out how the
Speaker 1: draft opinion leaked, which made people be like wait, wait,
Speaker 1: why why? How? How how could you like these are
Speaker 1: super locked down documents, like how would you not super
Speaker 1: how would you not know who leaked it? Like how
Speaker 1: could you not chase it down? And I think part
Speaker 1: of me has the conspiracy theory that you know it
Speaker 1: it was one of the conservative justices leaking it in
Speaker 1: order to you know, rip the band aid off and
Speaker 1: get people, give people, and I idea that it was coming,
Speaker 1: which I think it did. End up rather than being
Speaker 1: like one giant day of like fury where everything was
Speaker 1: like culminating and it came at came as a surprised.
Speaker 1: There was this day where it was like this might
Speaker 1: probably definitely is going to happen, but it was like deferred.
Speaker 1: So I do think, I don't know. So one theory
Speaker 1: would be that they're just not doing a good job
Speaker 1: of chasing it down because the white conservative men and
Speaker 1: women who you know do that job, get away with
Speaker 1: whatever the funk they want to. But they're also saying
Speaker 1: that the information, like the security around documents and just
Speaker 1: everything at the Supreme Court is about what you would
Speaker 1: expect it to be if you just took a selection
Speaker 1: of a bunch of other like sixty to eighty year olds,
Speaker 1: and we're like, here, keep keep close lock on these,
Speaker 1: and like, you know, I guarantee at least one Supreme
Speaker 1: Court justice has all their passwords written on a little
Speaker 1: index cards like that's taped to the side of their
Speaker 1: desktop computer in their office. You know. Yeah, but a
Speaker 1: number of Supreme Court justices just use personal email accounts
Speaker 1: for sensitive transmissions instead of secure servers because they're old
Speaker 1: as hell and like that. It was literally described as
Speaker 1: slow to adopt new technology. I'll tell you what happened.
Speaker 1: One of these Supreme Court justices called their grandkid or
Speaker 1: something because they got locked out of something and they
Speaker 1: had all of that information up on their computer and
Speaker 1: they were like, what ro Versus Waite is gonna what
Speaker 1: do you read it? Yeah? Exactly, Yeah, that is to
Speaker 1: think dumb mistake on someone's part. And then someone saw
Speaker 1: it and someone was like, I'll I'll leak this. I'll
Speaker 1: leaking good. Yeah, we'll leak it real good. I think
Speaker 1: this is more and more a reason why there needs
Speaker 1: to be an each cap on all political jobs, because
Speaker 1: if you don't know how to work technology at this point,
Speaker 1: you are not to be trusted with the nation's secrets
Speaker 1: or major important decisions or any of that. Ship. If
Speaker 1: you can't remember or no way to remember your email
Speaker 1: password you got, you gotta go. That's no good. That's
Speaker 1: no good anymore. We can't have that. We simply cannot
Speaker 1: have that. Just putting just putting something in the trash
Speaker 1: folder on your laptop isn't going to cut it. Grandpa,
Speaker 1: you have to empty recycled bin, right, how it's actually gone? Well,
Speaker 1: let's in there. No, no, it's not. I don't believe
Speaker 1: it recycling. You need to take it out of your here, don't.
Speaker 1: I've been looking for the trash band. So the justices
Speaker 1: use these things called burn bags, which contains sensitive documents
Speaker 1: that are supposed to be destroyed, but their use of
Speaker 1: that has no standard protocol. So some of them make
Speaker 1: sure that they're taken away to be shredded, while others
Speaker 1: just leave them lying open in a hallway for anyone
Speaker 1: to take. Not just a bag of sensitive documents that
Speaker 1: are like labeled sensitive, like you don't put them in
Speaker 1: the burn bag in lane kiss there unless they're sensitive,
Speaker 1: and they just put them in the whole life. That's
Speaker 1: how every burn book got caught in junior high. Someone
Speaker 1: didn't wait to hand it off to someone. They just
Speaker 1: put this little spiral notebook that said burn book right
Speaker 1: on the front right, and someone came along and just
Speaker 1: confiscated it. Do we not see mean girls? Did not
Speaker 1: see mean girls? Come on, learn from our media. Please.
Speaker 1: That's too old, too old to see it. I don't
Speaker 1: know about the Lindsay Low classic. Thank you, three generations
Speaker 1: too old to have seen it. You're right, you're right,
Speaker 1: they know nothing, but Russian Wieners come on. They also
Speaker 1: like their VPN access that allows them to print documents
Speaker 1: from any computer and then don't know what that is
Speaker 1: to track copies, So like they there's just no, it's
Speaker 1: not a question of like how did this one thing leak?
Speaker 1: It's like how is everything not leaking? Basically what what
Speaker 1: this report revealed? It's it's shocking. Also, why why do
Speaker 1: they have sensitive I think all their stuff needs to leak,
Speaker 1: Like the Supreme Court, like what, I want to know
Speaker 1: what you'll do it in the day today because honestly,
Speaker 1: I don't know what my taxes are going to. It
Speaker 1: really feels like every Supreme Court interaction is just like
Speaker 1: some sort of hearing about something that we see a
Speaker 1: five minute clip of on c Span like the next day,
Speaker 1: and it's like, so you guys meet for five minutes
Speaker 1: once a month, and like that's the whole job, because
Speaker 1: that's what it feels like, that's what it sounds like.
Speaker 1: I'm very with you on that one. Meg. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: the fact that they're even like doing this investigation is
Speaker 1: so wild that they're just like, well, how did they
Speaker 1: find out what we're doing in our important meetings? It's
Speaker 1: like that's weird. The thing that you're doing. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: thing that you're doing that is going to affect the
Speaker 1: health care and ability to live of half of the population.
Speaker 1: You're you're gonna be mad, You're you're gonna go with
Speaker 1: the who told you that response? How dare you? How
Speaker 1: dare you walk through my privacy like that file that
Speaker 1: under file that under need to know frankly, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back,
Speaker 1: and we're back. And so movies are back or they're not,
Speaker 1: depending on like which article that you're you're reading. But
Speaker 1: AMC Theaters is on the verge of becoming a monopoly there.
Speaker 1: You know, they're by they're using their big year where
Speaker 1: like everybody else went out of business and they were
Speaker 1: the only theater that had the scale to really stay
Speaker 1: in business and do well. They're using that to possibly
Speaker 1: by like arc Light Cinemas if they haven't done that already,
Speaker 1: I think they're planning to, and like that. There's just
Speaker 1: not Cineplex, I think is the other one that is
Speaker 1: on its way out. So there they just have massive
Speaker 1: scale now, and that means what we've learned from other
Speaker 1: things like Ticketmaster when when a company becomes a monopoly,
Speaker 1: they stopped giving a ship about what their consumers want,
Speaker 1: and that means policies like this one we just learned about.
Speaker 1: MC theaters just announced that there will be charging more
Speaker 1: money for seats that don't suck. This is such bullshit. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: Nicole Kimman doesn't monel out for free, Okay, she's yeah,
Speaker 1: that's and where else are you gonna get to see
Speaker 1: a movie except for any other movie theater. There's like
Speaker 1: nothing they do that's better other than I guess the
Speaker 1: m C like Guests or the m C Monthly Past.
Speaker 1: Some people really ride for the Nicole Kidman thing. We're
Speaker 1: all pretending to enjoy it, like ironically, but it's not good.
Speaker 1: And yeah, but it's also three minutes at the beginning
Speaker 1: of a movie. It's not all of a sudden like, well,
Speaker 1: I go to AMC theaters to see this thing that
Speaker 1: I've watched on YouTube ten times already and it has
Speaker 1: been parodied on SNL. I'm not going for that. That's
Speaker 1: just like a little cherry on top for my getting
Speaker 1: to go. Yes, Nicole, thank you, I'm okay. If you
Speaker 1: have a phone, if you have a full volume phone
Speaker 1: conversation during that part of the movie. You just wanna
Speaker 1: I think we can start being rude to m C
Speaker 1: and Nicole Kidman. It's it's the Nicole Kidman. It's my favorite. Okay,
Speaker 1: but I'll see you after the movie, right, Okay, Okay,
Speaker 1: I gotta don't if it's bootleg movies, just of that part. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what I'm downloading on the pirate bay. They're rolling out.
Speaker 1: The program they're rolling out is called site Line. They're
Speaker 1: doing it in New York, Chicago, and Kansas City. It's
Speaker 1: so fucking bullshit. It feels like the like the three
Speaker 1: cities that existed in like the eighteen hundreds. Those really
Speaker 1: the three America's hot, Damn Kansas City. I'm going to
Speaker 1: Kansas City but to eat a t bone steak. But
Speaker 1: it will be expanded to all domestic MC locations by
Speaker 1: the end of the year, and it's gonna have so
Speaker 1: we're we're talking three different seat pricing choices only after
Speaker 1: four pm and not on Tuesdays, So don't worry, all
Speaker 1: you Tuesday movie movie goers. No no word on how
Speaker 1: the full moon affects things, but standard site Line the
Speaker 1: seats that are the most common in auditorium and value
Speaker 1: siteline basically the front row, like the ones that are
Speaker 1: like you, you can't watch it, you can't really watch
Speaker 1: the movie without thinking about what you're doing and be like,
Speaker 1: I think his jaw just looks really big because that
Speaker 1: part of the screen is so much closer to me
Speaker 1: than the top. And but then there's preferred site line,
Speaker 1: which means seats in the middle where you can see
Speaker 1: everything almost like you're sitting at home watching it on TV. Well,
Speaker 1: the thing that they're trying to compete with, Jackie said
Speaker 1: the magic word also in my humble opinion, like there
Speaker 1: is a price that you pay comfort wise by choosing
Speaker 1: a seat with a better site line, because movies these
Speaker 1: days sometimes it's packed theater and wherever you're sitting is
Speaker 1: like you're sitting next to somebody, but you are choosing
Speaker 1: to be close to another person who may or may
Speaker 1: not respect your personal space, may or may not be
Speaker 1: very noisily chewing on something or like unwrapping their bag
Speaker 1: for five minutes in the middle of us watching Avatar.
Speaker 1: Person who sat next to me during Avatar. But like,
Speaker 1: you are paying a price by being in one of
Speaker 1: those better site line seats any way. So the fact
Speaker 1: that you used to pay more to maybe have less
Speaker 1: comfort when you're watching the movie just because supposedly your
Speaker 1: siteline is going to be better to a huge thirty
Speaker 1: ft screen is bunkers. To me, that is complete ludus ludicrous,
Speaker 1: Ludacy's ludicrous anyway, ludicrosity, ludicrosity, thank you, thank you. The
Speaker 1: wild part to me is that they're just openly admitting
Speaker 1: some of these seats are gonna sucky. We are charging
Speaker 1: you fourteen dollars for a seat that might suck asked.
Speaker 1: That's and honestly, if it doesn't take off, and if
Speaker 1: people are like, na, we're not gonna this and they
Speaker 1: can't sell out this, they're gonna make those seats suck more. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The the fact that they've named the program site line,
Speaker 1: which is like the thing that that just means like
Speaker 1: I have a unobstructed line of sight, like the most
Speaker 1: basic thing that you could ask for in any you know,
Speaker 1: consuming of an event or a piece of media us
Speaker 1: line And they're like, yeah, that's we're taking it real
Speaker 1: bare bones here. We will give you a line of
Speaker 1: sight maybe if you if you pay maybe. Yeah. Ridiculous, Yeah,
Speaker 1: preferred site line the ship. All of a sudden, you're
Speaker 1: gonna be like, why does every single seat in the
Speaker 1: front row now also have a pole in front of it? Exactly? Why?
Speaker 1: Why was this necessary? Why don't have to look around already?
Speaker 1: Shitty seat that y'all sold me exactly the sombrero row
Speaker 1: and then discounted behind the sobrero row. Yeah, that's really funny.
Speaker 1: Maggie as always such a pleasure having you on the dailies,
Speaker 1: like guyst where can people find you? Follow you all
Speaker 1: that good stuff. I'm on all the socials under Maggie

Speaker 1: people are out there are hateful and scared, and they're
Speaker 1: not even using logic as their Northern Star. They're just
Speaker 1: out there spread and all kind of hand so she

Speaker 1: And then there's a pretty girl down in the second
Speaker 1: half of the meme and she's saying, maybe if you
Speaker 1: let them keep more of their money, they could afford
Speaker 1: to let you keep more of yours, and Julia clar
Speaker 1: Folks I am laughing. Just a very interesting point of view,
Speaker 1: perspective on how capitalism works, that you just need to

Speaker 1: will be profitable. They're funded by people for the same
Speaker 1: reasons that like the government and Dictatorship's fun propaganda because
