1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,400
Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of Give

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: Trend back My Son or give me back my trend,

3
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:13,120
Speaker 1: whichever way you prefer um. That's courtesy of frog Eggs,

4
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:16,759
Speaker 1: who in the discord said, just rewatched Ransom last night.

5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:21,600
Speaker 1: Whoa's watching Ransom right now? I'm wondering if it's on

6
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:26,279
Speaker 1: t NT or one of these channels. But even it

7
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: feels a little old for that, right, Like TNT has

8
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,239
Speaker 1: moved on to other movies that they constantly replay, like

9
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 1: they're not. They're no longer replaying Ransom? Are they rands trend? No,

10
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:43,160
Speaker 1: that doesn't really work anyways. Producer Brian says, Yeah, they've

11
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: moved on to movies like Payback other Gibsonian classics. I

12
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,240
Speaker 1: am Jack and I'm throwed to be joined by TDZ

13
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: writer Jim McNab. Hey, thanks for having me. It's great

14
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 1: to have you. Let's tell the people what's trending, shall we.

15
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 1: Chicago Mayor Laurie Lightfoot has lost her reelection. Bid did

16
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 1: not get enough votes to participate in the April fourth

17
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: runoff election, making her the first incumbent elected Chicago mayor

18
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 1: to lose reelection since nineteen eighty three. I think that's

19
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: at least partially due to the fact that Chicago is

20
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: like the most corrupt, like machine run political city traditionally. Right. Yeah, like,

21
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: how long was the penguin mayor for right a while

22
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 1: the penguin Penguin was running shit, she ultimately fell behind

23
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: because of running from the middle. Yea. One candidate ran

24
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: decidedly to her right, another campaign far to her left,

25
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: and it just feels like there's not really it's tough.

26
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: It's tough time to like you can't really have a

27
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: coherent position without picking aside and not because like things

28
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: are so extreme on the left, but because the right

29
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: has gotten so extreme. So by being in the middle,

30
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: you're kind of mostly a fascist still, is kind of

31
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: what it comes back to. Like, at one point, she

32
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 1: raised the bridges in Chicago during the Black Lives Matter

33
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:16,839
Speaker 1: protest of twenty twenty to prevent people from being able

34
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: to move around in the city. Yeah, I remember hearing that.

35
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: That's messed up. I know, I was just joking about

36
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: the penguin, But that kind of sound like something from

37
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: bad It sounds like the Nolan Batman movie. Yeah, you know. Anyways,

38
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: Brandon Johnson is one of the candidates who got enough

39
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: votes to make it to the runoff. Brandon Johnson stumped

40
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: on reopening mental health clinics, and Paul Vallis is the

41
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: one who ran to the right, ran on a tough

42
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: on crime platform backed by the cops. So it seems

43
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: like Chicago has a pretty clear choice to make there.

44
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, but we shall see. We haven't seen

45
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: the right wing scare craziness work to this point. But yeah,

46
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: and technically I think they're all They were all Democrats running,

47
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 1: like all the candidates where yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a

48
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 1: matter of degrees. Yeah, Like I mean, La just had

49
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: a similar showdown between two Democrats, one of whom was

50
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 1: a billionaire mall developer who was a Republican as recently

51
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 1: as like a year ago. But you just technically have

52
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: to be a Democrat to even get people to pay

53
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: attention to you. So anyways, let's talk about what's really

54
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: on people's minds, and that is the stand up scene

55
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: in Claw. If you haven't seen it, I thought what

56
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: I was watching was yet another example of how movies

57
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: are just hopeless at ever getting stand up comedy right,

58
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: Like they're just will ever. And I don't blame movies

59
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: for anything other than attempting to put stand up comedy

60
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: in a movie like that, a non documentary or stand

61
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: up special, Like it's just having an actor recite written

62
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 1: words as a stand up comedian always, always, always is bad.

63
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: So that's what I thought I was watching, was like, wait,

64
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: they did it again with a movie claw that you

65
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: just hadn't heard of, and that's what it is. Kind

66
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: of for a while, I feel like it's just the

67
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: actors is like, you know, just doing a bad impression

68
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: of a stand up comedian. But her set is all

69
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 1: about being chased by a raptor, and there's like some

70
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: crowd shots thrown in in between, and like her friend,

71
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: she's like my friend over here, he gets it, he

72
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: knows and like he laughs at the top of his

73
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 1: lungs and then audibly says mm as he takes a

74
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: step of his drink. Ummm, he goes it's wild. Uh

75
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: And then the laugh Factory too or something. Yeah, it

76
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: could be confused with like they did a good job

77
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: in terms of recreating like what footage from a stand

78
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: up special would look like that took place at the

79
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 1: laugh Factory until the very end, when a dinosaur bursts

80
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: through the wall behind her, and apparently it is a

81
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: dream sequence. So it's just a lot of strange choices happening.

82
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: I don't excuse it for being a dream sequence. Dream

83
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 1: sequences for me, I am a staunch anti dream sequence

84
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: uh proponent in films. I really have your kids never

85
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 1: seen the last like two minutes of the Wizard of

86
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: Oz just like band, Yeah, where this all really happened?

87
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: I'm a I'm a Wizard of Oz truther. Uh, the

88
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 1: whole thing happened and they just tacked that on to

89
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 1: confuse us. But there is really a Land of Oz.

90
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 1: So you saw this clip, and being the diligent internet researcher,

91
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: you were like, I have to see this in context

92
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,239
Speaker 1: and went and watched the end of Claw. So why

93
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: is any of this happening? Well, I don't know because

94
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 1: I only watched the end of it. I did not

95
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 1: if I was really diligent, I would have like set

96
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 1: aside an hour and a half this morning and watched

97
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 1: all of Claw. But I saw the viral clip like everybody,

98
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: and I wanted to see it in context. So I

99
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 1: found Claw It's on Toby and I watched the end

100
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: of it, and yeah, it's like I guess after the

101
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: whole movie is about like this, uh, this couple that

102
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: are yeah, fleeing from a raptor and like a ghost

103
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: town or some deserted town. And then at the end,

104
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 1: yeah there's this it's like a year later and the

105
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,279
Speaker 1: woman's giving her stand up set. You know, it's the

106
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 1: clip we see and then the dinosaur Perston the end.

107
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: But then yeah, she wakes up and it was just

108
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: a shream. But then she's like in bed with the

109
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: guy and then just the same thing happens in their

110
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: bedroom and then it ends and it's like, well, there

111
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: was no reason that had to be a dream. It was.

112
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: It was like better in the comedy club. It was

113
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: more exciting and visually interesting, like you really didn't need it.

114
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: Was like they were like, oh, you know, we promised

115
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: it would be like eighty eight minutes, not eighty six minutes.

116
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: I should really make this a dream. It feels like

117
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: they saw the cut together footage of the stand up

118
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 1: thing and we're like, Okay, this feels like a surreal

119
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: bad acid trip, so we're going to make it a

120
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: dream and then do a double scare, double fake out scare.

121
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 1: But so yeah, it takes place in a world where

122
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: raptors are real. So it is. Yeah, I'm very confused

123
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: by it. Seems like it's just a shlacky B movie.

124
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 1: I guess this is the answer to all my questions.

125
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: It did make me want to see like the you know,

126
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: the movies in between, like the Jurassic Park movies, where

127
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: this would be stand up like you know, people would

128
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: actually have bits about like the dinosaur attacks that routinely happen.

129
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: That is the movie that I think the Jurassic World

130
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: franchise really left on the table. Is just a movie

131
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: that takes place in the livid day world where dinosaurs

132
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: actually happen, and you were just like checking the like

133
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: dinosaur report, like you would check the weather report to

134
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: see if there were if the dinosaurs were out today,

135
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 1: or if you could go to school, you know, right.

136
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: That seems very interesting to me. They didn't do that,

137
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: according to people who saw the last one that ostensibly

138
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 1: like had the premise of like it's years later, dinosaurs

139
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: are loose, but it was mainly like they found a

140
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 1: way to like put it back on the island somehow.

141
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they were just like, yeah, they had an

142
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: interesting premise, and then like five minutes into it. They're like,

143
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 1: two years later, we've created a new dinosaur park. It's like,

144
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: what are you doing that? And what does the stand

145
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: up special look like in this in this world? You

146
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: exactly all right, let's take a quick break. We'll be

147
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:25,079
Speaker 1: right back, and we're back. And speaking of stand up,

148
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 1: there was a rumor going around that Tom Brady was

149
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: reportedly considering trying his hand at stand up comedy. I

150
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: think this is just the world wants so badly to

151
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: see this man humiliated that they invented this story like this.

152
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 1: The news works that way sometimes sometimes, like the unconscious,

153
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 1: just something is so urgently desired there that they create

154
00:09:55,400 --> 00:10:00,439
Speaker 1: that reality in the news. Um and they people want

155
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 1: to see Tom Brady try his hand at stand up.

156
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 1: But I don't think it's happening, because you know that

157
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: there was a report from Radar Online that like Tom

158
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 1: Brady was considering stand up, his team, his inner circle

159
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 1: hated the idea. And then it was immediately like TMZ

160
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 1: came through with the not true, not true. Actually Tom

161
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: is not trying going to try stand up. He just

162
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: wants to spend time with his family and he might

163
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 1: be doing a Comedy Central roast, right, which Yeah. Yeah,

164
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: what if the article is like, he's got a type

165
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 1: five about raptors, but he's not right, He's not going

166
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: to perform it. Yeah, we blew it here. We should

167
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: have responded to this not with derision, but with just

168
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 1: friendly encouragement when we heard that Tom Brady was considering

169
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,560
Speaker 1: stand up so that we could get to watch Tom

170
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: Brady try stand up comedy. Yeah, and then eventually watched

171
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 1: Tom Brady become the joker when it doesn't work. Right,

172
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: KFC is bringing back the double Down? Are are you familiar?

173
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 1: Did the Double Down even make it to Canada? Yes?

174
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,680
Speaker 1: I think it did, Yeah, but I mainly heard about

175
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 1: it through that Patton Oswalt bit. KFC. It was a

176
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: cultural happening. I don't know why I asked it, like,

177
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: it's you don't get the same news up there, right? Yes?

178
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:28,959
Speaker 1: So this is two pieces of fried chicken that are

179
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 1: treated as the buns on a sandwich with like some

180
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 1: vague is it just bacon like fast food bacon in

181
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 1: between and a lot of mayonnaise. Um, But the idea

182
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: is the chicken is the bun, the chicken is the bread,

183
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: and then mayonnaise is the meat in the sandwich. Essentially. Um,

184
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 1: it's yeah, I've always wondered, like, how do you eat it? Like,

185
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 1: doesn't it isn't the chicken that's replacing the bread too

186
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: hot on your hands? You think so, wouldn't you? Like

187
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:05,239
Speaker 1: that is kind of the structural conceit of a sandwich,

188
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,839
Speaker 1: is that the bread makes it so that you can

189
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: eat the hot interior but bright, Yeah, you need double

190
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: down gloves to they need to be off and double

191
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: down gloves. I don't know. The gloves are also made

192
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 1: of chicken. The gloves are made of the fried cristy

193
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: chicken skin. Superducer Victor, who added the story to the

194
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: dock is informing us it's bacon and cheese. There is

195
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 1: also a sauce. I mean, I do remember there being

196
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:41,559
Speaker 1: like a orange red, pinkish sauce and that's also in there. Um,

197
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: I don't think I tried it. This was also at

198
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: an Arrow when Catsy had the bowls, which I was

199
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: I was a big fan of um so I was.

200
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: I was more into that. It feels like this is

201
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: how nature is like balancing things out. Yeah, with vaccinations

202
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: and everything, it's like, well people are getting a little

203
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:06,199
Speaker 1: too healthy. Let's bringing the double down back. Yeah, Elvis is.

204
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: People were like that movie wasn't very good, and everybody,

205
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: like so many people went to see it, and the

206
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: lead actor got nominated. Elvis is apparently like going to

207
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: be a cultural thing, and so Netflix just released a trailer.

208
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: I mean, this probably was in the work long before that,

209
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: but Elvis is powerful, powerful force in an American pop culture,

210
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 1: and the people behind Archer are making an animated series

211
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: in which the premise behind Elvis's drug fueled trip to

212
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: Nixon's White House gets made into a reality. Yeah. That's

213
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 1: so weird because it's also one of the creators or

214
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: producers is Priscilla Pressley, right, who's in it, who plays herself.

215
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 1: But it's like, yeah, this was just like a thing

216
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,439
Speaker 1: your husband thought when he was like at his worst. Yeah, So,

217
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: for people who aren't aware, Elvis one time took a

218
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:15,319
Speaker 1: trip to Nixon's white House with a golden revolver into

219
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 1: like gave a golden handgun to Nixon. You can see

220
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 1: pictures of it. Nixon looks visibly uncomfortable, which I guess

221
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 1: Nixon kind of tends to look visibly uncomfortable, but I

222
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: have to imagine he was very nervous Elvis was presumably

223
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: out of his mind on prescription drugs. But something that

224
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: I didn't know before the story was that he was

225
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 1: like all the drugs he did were prescribed to him,

226
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: and he was very like staunchly anti street drugs, right,

227
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: And so he went to Nixon and pitched that he

228
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 1: would be America's undercover drugs are and like would help

229
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: Nixon in like just be king Nark, be Nixon's undercover

230
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: ever drug guy who takes out dangerous drug users like

231
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: the Beatles. Like I think that was specifically a part

232
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 1: of his pitch was that he will go undercover and

233
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 1: like get the information that would allow Richard Nixon to

234
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: take down dangerous countercultural forces like the Beatles. And they

235
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 1: seem to have been like, yeah, what if that that

236
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: reality actually happened and he was a secret agent? Yeah

237
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 1: that's wild. Yeah, but yeah, he's like a super spy.

238
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: He's not just like, yeah narking on Ringo or whatever. Yeah. Yeah,

239
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: it seems it's seems like they were just like, what

240
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: if Archer was Elvis? Right? Yeah, I think one of

241
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 1: the guys is as an Archer writer who did Yeah,

242
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: and Elvis is voiced by Matthew McConaughey, so, um, yeah, yeah,

243
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: it could be good. I don't know. I watched like

244
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: the first half of that Elvis movie and it was yeah,

245
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: it was it was. It was a movie. I mean

246
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 1: it felt like reading a Wikipedia article on whatever Elvis

247
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 1: was on for ninety minutes and then I'd had to

248
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 1: turn it off. Written by Elvis, well high. I feel

249
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: like that was the other thing, because he also in

250
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: the movie is like a civil rights hero instead of

251
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:25,359
Speaker 1: a person who was used as like a white figurehead

252
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 1: for stealing rock music away from its inventors. Yeah, and

253
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 1: there's that guy who I can't remember his name now.

254
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: He co wrote, like he has a co writing credit

255
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: on a lot of Elvis songs. The way Elvis would

256
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: learn the songs was he would sing them and mail

257
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: the tapes to Elvis. And when you go and when

258
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 1: you listen to him, like there's a few recordings of him,

259
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 1: like I think he was on Letterman in the eighties

260
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 1: or something, and he sounds like Elvis. You're like, oh,

261
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: even the thing Elvis did, which was his sort of

262
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 1: signature style, the way he sang songs which just stolen

263
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: from this guy who you know, I don't didn't get

264
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,479
Speaker 1: out for note. Yeah. Anyways, those are some of the
