Speaker 1: I'm gonna do my overrated now during the cold open. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the fuck messing with the format, man.
Speaker 2: My overrated is spoiling or under overrated?
Speaker 1: As being mad at.
Speaker 2: Spoiling movies, I think just spoil movies all the time.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to do it for you because I
Speaker 2: know you'll be mad, but I think you guys need
Speaker 2: to relax. But here's my little joke. Here's my little
Speaker 2: joke that I'm doing it the cold open, and we're
Speaker 2: not going to do an overrated when it comes time,
Speaker 2: which is that I think Weapons is set in the
Speaker 2: Naked Gun universe, and that's all say.
Speaker 1: That's all I'll say. And that is in no way
Speaker 1: going to affect how I how I watch Weapons.
Speaker 2: But there there's multiple points, but really one main point
Speaker 2: that is has a shocking similarity between the two movies.
Speaker 1: Wow, Okay, now now I'm excited because I have seen
Speaker 1: Naked Gun. I agree don't like I Spoiling movies doesn't
Speaker 1: bother me unless it's like either a big twist or
Speaker 1: it's a comedy movie. I don't want to hear jokes
Speaker 1: before they happen in the movie, because that does genuinely like,
Speaker 1: oh hear any subtitles the joke.
Speaker 2: But that's that's also bad, even after I would argue,
Speaker 2: that's not the spoiler of it. That's the problem. It's
Speaker 2: that people can't tell jokes. You should leave it to
Speaker 2: the professionals.
Speaker 1: That's right. Everybody should shut the fuck up and stop
Speaker 1: trying to be funny repeating jokes.
Speaker 2: Fucking sucks. Yeah, well, but you can work in Austin
Speaker 2: as a comic.

Speaker 1: It's Andrew too.
Speaker 2: No, I'm not because Jack's piss, Jack's piss.
Speaker 1: What is on your list?
Speaker 2: Because Jack's piss on your list?
Speaker 4: List?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess it would be the lips. People have
Speaker 2: not stopped fucking. It's just, uh, the discord still with
Speaker 2: piss pitches all the way up and down. And then
Speaker 2: also all all of the suggestions for aka is on
Speaker 2: the discord regarding me are impossible to hoppery head if
Speaker 2: you have not listened to upwards of five hundred episodes
Speaker 2: of The Daily Daily.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, this is this is the format. We like
Speaker 1: to do a incredibly deep inside joke at the top
Speaker 1: to just alienate anybody who might be a new listener
Speaker 1: exactly knock that out right up front. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: people when they go, hey, I listened to that podcast
Speaker 1: that you suggested, What the fuck are they talking about?
Speaker 2: What the fuck is it? What the fuck are you
Speaker 2: talking about?
Speaker 1: Anyway, it's all.
Speaker 2: And then the only other one was a was one
Speaker 2: that is a essentially like can only be used on
Speaker 2: an episode where me and Marcella are back on at
Speaker 2: the same time, at the same time. It's not really
Speaker 2: uh anyway, thank you, was like, gang, I love I
Speaker 2: love the pissed her actions, the pissed I don't know, yeah,
Speaker 2: the pistol in upon us. Yeah, I did want to say,
Speaker 2: I I went to high school with Andrew w K.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys remember him. You did,
Speaker 2: but all that party stuff was also sarcastic because we
Speaker 2: grew up in ann Arbor, Michigan. And he literally wrote
Speaker 2: I remember because I had the first seven inch and
Speaker 2: we were like I wasn't like super good friends with him,
Speaker 2: but like some of my friends were really good friends
Speaker 2: with him. And he was literally like, this is what
Speaker 2: the fucking frap boys sound like? Yeah, and he wrote
Speaker 2: party hard right, and it it like turned into whatever,
Speaker 2: and he just became that person in a great way.
Speaker 1: I think that's one of my favorite articles we did
Speaker 1: back at Cracked. Was like a bunch of songs that
Speaker 1: were like basically they were like massive hit songs that
Speaker 1: were done sarcastically. Yeah, oh right, right right top Elvis,
Speaker 1: Elvis's whole thing, Elvis's whole shit where he's like that voice,
Speaker 1: like he sang a couple songs that were just like
Speaker 1: him singing like a normal person and they were like
Speaker 1: this kind of sucks. And then like they were just
Speaker 1: fucking around and he was like doing a bit and
Speaker 1: they were like more of guy like you being an
Speaker 1: assholely ship, and that's where we got the whole Elvis
Speaker 1: thing from.
Speaker 2: That's what that's what the gangam style toub thumping. I
Speaker 2: guess it's a lot of party anthems are cynical people
Speaker 2: being like, do you know what you don't folks sound like?
Speaker 2: And then everyone we love that is what.
Speaker 1: We sound like. It fucking rules. Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: Hey, this fucker gets it, dude.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's crazy. We have Andrew W.
Speaker 2: K Lure on this podcast so much on this podcast.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I won't. I won't get into it any
Speaker 1: more than that.
Speaker 2: But how many years do you have to have been
Speaker 2: listening to the show to get what's happening on the show?
Speaker 1: Do you mean? It's Yeah, I just wonder what.
Speaker 2: New people are thinking. Go on the discord and just
Speaker 2: tell me what you're thinking.
Speaker 1: What you think the first time listeners just hop in
Speaker 1: the discord, which you have to ask.
Speaker 2: It's probably like doing drugs. So for the first time,
Speaker 2: it's really disorienting to start, and then you kind of
Speaker 2: settle into it and you're like, yeah, you know, I
Speaker 2: coul can do this every day and it's constantly but
Speaker 2: and it's also I guess a little bit like you
Speaker 2: just go with it because of context clues and then eventually.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a little puzzle that we make for you.
Speaker 1: It has nothing to do with us being bad at
Speaker 1: our jobs. It's actually we're intentionally doing a puzzle for you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Taylor Swift does the Easter eggs all the time.
Speaker 2: It's lore, and if you find it confusing, it's because
Speaker 2: you're not caught off in the lore.
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm sorry. Does Taylor Swift are the only good artist?
Speaker 1: Does she open every album being like, Okay, this is
Speaker 1: a song I'm going to write with like a guitar. No,
Speaker 1: she's challenging, Andrew. She challenges her listeners. And that's how
Speaker 1: really the inspiration that we take into every day every recording.
Speaker 1: Oh man, I like that song It's Nice to have
Speaker 1: a Friend? You heard that one? No, it's just like,
Speaker 1: is it Taylor Swift? She has a Taylor It's nice
Speaker 1: to have a friend. I would say it's one of
Speaker 1: the least challenging songs I've ever heard, but it sounds wonderful.
Speaker 1: And uh, it is a statement that I can get
Speaker 1: on board with. It's nice to have a friend.
Speaker 2: I that is obviously, I'm sure it's great. Yeah, she
Speaker 2: knows what she's doing songwriting and songwriting collaborator wise. That
Speaker 2: song sounds like if you told me that it was
Speaker 2: an Elmo joint, I would believe. I'd like, Yo, Elmo
Speaker 2: is fucking cooking?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, sounds so sad.
Speaker 2: What the fuck yo?
Speaker 1: You see Elmo collab with Maximum. It's one of the
Speaker 1: songs that I what a little method I have is
Speaker 1: I will add a song that I like that I like,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to put on my mix, but I'll
Speaker 1: put it on my kids mix and like wow, because
Speaker 1: I'm listening to that probably more anyway than my own mix.
Speaker 1: And then they're like, why is this song or mix?
Speaker 1: I'm like, shut up, I'm.
Speaker 2: Listening to this whack ass shit.
Speaker 1: Dad.
Speaker 2: Here's a question for the dads out there. Is my
Speaker 2: reference is my calling stuff targeted towards young children? Elmo stuff?
Speaker 2: Is that a boomer mentality? Here is something my kids
Speaker 2: with almost heavy almost out there? There's so many almost
Speaker 2: spin off shows bro.
Speaker 1: Also, just the sentiment it's nice to have a friend
Speaker 1: is some straight up Elmo ship. It's like, yeah, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean.
Speaker 2: I guess everything everything that like almost says you could
Speaker 2: also probably put in the words of like an alcoholic
Speaker 2: who's just hit rock bottom and so sad, so basic different,
Speaker 2: basic sentiment is the same, Yeah, I mean actually, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's nice to have a friend. You could basically read
Speaker 2: as Almo and it's sound they get Almo song.
Speaker 1: Who the stand up is? Who talks about how mister
Speaker 1: Rogers is like statement that like is also very easy
Speaker 1: to read as a serial. Actually, I'm not going to
Speaker 1: do this because I don't know who the stand up
Speaker 1: car talking about.
Speaker 2: Don't tell jokes you.
Speaker 1: Anyways.
Speaker 2: I did say leave it to the professionals, and like
Speaker 2: it or not, you guys are professionals.
Speaker 1: That's absolutely not true. I gotta go. Andrew T thrilled
Speaker 1: to have you here and especially feisty mood. We're gonna
Speaker 1: get to know you in a moment. First, we're gonna
Speaker 1: tell the listeners a couple of things we're talking about.
Speaker 1: We're gonna check out with the New York mayoral race
Speaker 1: the general election. Eric Adams still still out here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was so weird for me to realize that he
Speaker 1: was going to be the candidate opposite Mamdannie Like once
Speaker 1: Ma'm Donnie won. I was like, oh, and then Clomo
Speaker 1: is gonna come back. And there's that Curtis and Lee
Speaker 1: Will got and then they were like, no, Adams is
Speaker 1: still in the race. I was like, but what.
Speaker 2: How Adams the one investigated by the fence.
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyways, he's not doing well in the race, but
Speaker 1: he is still in the race, and there's a there's
Speaker 1: a great new anecdote from his campaign that we want
Speaker 1: to talk about. Also, just like how things are going
Speaker 1: for the anti Mamdanni movement. They've been trying hard, you mean,
Speaker 1: the Democrats. It's all types. Takes all types to stop
Speaker 1: a movement, you know. So we'll talk about how that's
Speaker 1: going for them, and then we of course one of
Speaker 1: my favorite things ever is when is when a breed
Speaker 1: more when a brand redesigns a logo disastrously. The Pepsi
Speaker 1: logo redesign is my favorite thing. I think like Gawker did,
Speaker 1: Like I had forgotten how short the Gawker article is
Speaker 1: where they just like combed through the deck. Yeah, one
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty page deck that this redesign firm did
Speaker 1: for Pepsi and just like pulled out the choicest nuggets.
Speaker 1: It's like a single page Gawker article probably my favorite
Speaker 1: single page in the history of the Internet. So I
Speaker 1: just want to talk about the redesign of the Cracker
Speaker 1: Barrel logo because it is being portrayed as like Mega
Speaker 1: is outraged about this, and I just like we need
Speaker 1: to we cannot seed this ground, like when we need
Speaker 1: to wait. Then we need to be on the side
Speaker 1: that we need to stand up and say no, we
Speaker 1: think this sucks too. Cracker Barrel redesigning their logo.
Speaker 2: But not for this, not because the old white guy
Speaker 2: went poof. This is this is Jack reaching across the aisle.
Speaker 1: This is this is Richie grows the island saying this
Speaker 1: fucking sucks.
Speaker 2: We can work together.
Speaker 1: We can't all that plenty more. The first Andrew tea,
Speaker 1: We do like to ask our guest, what is something
Speaker 1: from your search history that's revealing about who you are?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually I also don't remember how far I
Speaker 2: got into this last time I was on the show.
Speaker 2: So I'm just gonna do it, and Jack go ahead
Speaker 2: and correct me. If people have heard this already, are
Speaker 2: you know what?
Speaker 1: Fuck you?
Speaker 2: If you've heard this already, I don't care.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 2: It is other uses for sodium citrate, So what happened
Speaker 2: was I got I was making some hatch chili cheese sauce. Okay,
Speaker 2: so type situation, and it.
Speaker 1: Seized up a little bit. The initial batch.
Speaker 2: Was like okay, but then when I moved, it seized
Speaker 2: up and seized uff like congealed congealed, Yeah, and the
Speaker 2: emulsion didn't hold. So the oil was starting to separate
Speaker 2: from the protein broke, which yeah, very standard happens with
Speaker 2: you know, non e mulcified cheese sauces. And I knew
Speaker 2: in the back the thing, he's a bad thing, the
Speaker 2: thing you're supposed to do that like the fucking I
Speaker 2: don't know. I guess I heard of it in the
Speaker 2: in the heyday of the idea of molecular gastronomy, but
Speaker 2: it's just you know, regular asqu chemistry. Anyway, there's a
Speaker 2: substance called sodium citrate. That is, to put it in
Speaker 2: terms that I this is, this is the thing that
Speaker 2: I kind of came up with. That is what I
Speaker 2: can understand. It's the thing that turns cheese into cheese
Speaker 2: with a Z to google right, it's and it is
Speaker 2: honestly amazing. I love it so much. So I was
Speaker 2: just like thinking aloud at my friend's place where I
Speaker 2: brought the the caeso that had seized up, and I
Speaker 2: was like, well, we'd need like I don't know, fuck it.
Speaker 2: I was like, okay, well I could. I guess I
Speaker 2: could make another rue and then if we add some
Speaker 2: beer to it, I think we could thin the sound
Speaker 2: and like read, you know, make it creamy. And I
Speaker 2: was like, otherwise, we'd need some sodium citrate.
Speaker 1: And my man reaches into the.
Speaker 2: Back of his pantry and pulls out a fucking little
Speaker 2: baggy of sodium citrate and we we mix up a
Speaker 2: little just water and sodium citrate solution and mix it
Speaker 2: in this.
Speaker 1: Thing, and it is fucking magic.
Speaker 2: It turned this like lump of cheese in like one
Speaker 2: of the like kind of the big tupperware, in the
Speaker 2: like four inch cubic tupperware. H it was solid cheese
Speaker 2: with like maybe closer to half a centimeter than not
Speaker 2: of oil on top.
Speaker 1: But it's gonna like shit out slowly. The thing.
Speaker 2: It was real grainy and real gross, and the sodium
Speaker 2: citrate solution, my god, it turned it into cheese whiz,
Speaker 2: quite literal cheese whiz put with nice cheese. And so
Speaker 2: now I bought myself a baggy of this, and I'm
Speaker 2: trying to use it. I'm I'm on the you know,
Speaker 2: I'm on the fucking I'm playing the rush, as it were.
Speaker 2: I'm really loving it. But and I'm sure my enthusiasm
Speaker 2: will call them down, But holy shit, it's I made.
Speaker 2: I made like the best mac and cheese I've ever
Speaker 2: made yesterday with just like Parmisano reggiano. Grated some of
Speaker 2: that in there, some shred and cheddar cheese, hatch chili.
Speaker 1: Does it do it for anything else besides cheese?
Speaker 2: Yeah? What happens if you put it on a snail?
Speaker 2: I can't mention it goes, well, oh wait a snail. No,
Speaker 2: I don't know. Do you know what happens? That's like
Speaker 2: a French thing? I assume, yeah, exactly, fresh scargo, a
Speaker 2: nice little painte. But you said all other uses for it.
Speaker 2: I mean, you can put it in like beverages and
Speaker 2: like jams and stuff. It's basically like like a really
Speaker 2: good and multiplier and stabilizer. But I think the thing
Speaker 2: that is like the thing that to me seems most magic,
Speaker 2: and I'm just you know, from reading about it, I
Speaker 2: think it's the thing that most people will think is
Speaker 2: the most magic is the cheese again, it's the cheese
Speaker 2: to cheese with a Z transitions. Yeah, but not, it's
Speaker 2: not even It's just like it turns it into whenever
Speaker 2: the fuck cheese whizzards. Yeah, it's like it's like water
Speaker 2: or like whatever flavored, like what you want. I used
Speaker 2: broth in mine and loose bits of shredded cheese, like
Speaker 2: the most disgusting thing you can kind of think of,
Speaker 2: and it just melts it and it turns it into
Speaker 2: a homogeneous like solution. It's so fucking good. Anyway, who's
Speaker 2: a fire litl UZI verts if you need, if you
Speaker 2: need some sodium citrate I got. I got a real real,
Speaker 2: not a real big bag, but a pretty big bag.
Speaker 2: A yeah, yes literally.
Speaker 1: And your friend who who just had that ship on
Speaker 1: deck is meth Cook. I'm assuming, yeah, I wish.
Speaker 2: I think he's just like a he's like like a
Speaker 2: like aspiring food guy. So it was actually when you
Speaker 2: know the other day too, I was over there and
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, well, I mean, it's only one
Speaker 2: duck breast, but it would be kind of dope if
Speaker 2: we smoked it. And homeboy broke out like one of
Speaker 2: those like bel jar dome things with like with like
Speaker 2: a little like rubber tube and like a you know,
Speaker 2: essentially like a vaporiser. Yeah yeah, like probably was yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.
Speaker 1: It was like yeah it was.
Speaker 2: It's just he always has ship like that around, so
Speaker 2: I should have known he had motherfucking sodium sit trade.
Speaker 1: But again, possibly a drug guy all the I mean
Speaker 1: also yelling smoke into.
Speaker 2: All this is some methylamine. I got, what is something?
Speaker 1: So we did?
Speaker 3: We?
Speaker 1: We already covered the.
Speaker 2: Overrated Yeah, I guess so in the cold of oh
Speaker 2: maybe it was underrated, overrated whatever, this one might be
Speaker 2: a miles only kind of jam. It's being mad that
Speaker 2: your mom was right about some stupid Asian ship that
Speaker 2: when you were a kid you are certain was wrong.
Speaker 2: And here's mine. Growing up, my mom would routinely say, no,
Speaker 2: on a hot day, what you want to have is
Speaker 2: hot soup because that will cool you down. And like,
Speaker 2: I think, like many Americans, but many I would say people,
Speaker 2: even that sounds fucking crazy and unpleasant. And I the
Speaker 2: other day, when it was very hot in Los Angeles,
Speaker 2: I was like, fuck it, I just want some fun.
Speaker 2: I went and got fun in like an unair conditioned
Speaker 2: restaurant in Chinatown, so sweaty. What I will say is
Speaker 2: it did not cool me down particularly, but it made
Speaker 2: me so hot that I couldn't think anymore.
Speaker 1: And I didn't.
Speaker 2: I wasn't worried about the heat. So yeah, comparatively, because
Speaker 2: you've just skulled did the inside of your body that
Speaker 2: you go outside in the ambient temperature, it's like that
Speaker 2: Heidecker on I think you should leave. It's like it's
Speaker 2: hot if you're if you're not expecting it to be Yeah, yes, exactly,
Speaker 2: it's supposed to be ice cold. It's supposed to be
Speaker 2: ice cold, exactly. So I think that sketch like once
Speaker 2: a week. I think we're at the age where that sketch.
Speaker 2: That sketch changed my behavior. I started stretching every morning
Speaker 2: after that sketch. That sketch is one where it's not
Speaker 2: even a focus of the sketch, but every time he
Speaker 2: shifts on the couch, she goes oh, And I was like,
Speaker 2: I need to do mobility exercises that hemorrhoids.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it could be mobility.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, I just I do it when when
Speaker 2: I thankfully, I think I've gotten myself out of the
Speaker 2: part of life or not, like of the of inflexibility
Speaker 2: where that becomes a constant, involuntary sound that I made,
Speaker 2: but grown it was tying my shoes where it got bad.
Speaker 1: I was like I went in the ocean when I
Speaker 1: was Becky's and got like rocked by the waves, and
Speaker 1: like for the next twenty four hours when I would
Speaker 1: either sit down or stand up, I was making the
Speaker 1: most old man shit. I was being like, oh boy,
Speaker 1: oh you were doing I was vocalizing yah. They weren't
Speaker 1: even grown, Like yeah, yeah I got this. Oh you
Speaker 1: got this? Okay. Yeah, And and that's because I'm young
Speaker 1: and cool. Yeah yeah, well don't have that was an injury.
Speaker 2: But I will say I have found I think I've
Speaker 2: talked about this on the show before. Just a wee
Speaker 2: bit of stretching in the morning. Oh yeah, you got
Speaker 2: to so much more than I want to admit. That
Speaker 2: was my That was my grandfather's end of life advice
Speaker 2: to me.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I was like I was on a piece of advice. Yeah,
Speaker 2: when it's into the end. I was like, bro, like
Speaker 2: just get info, dune wisdom, dump on me. And He's like, man,
Speaker 2: the one thing he's like, you gotta stretch.
Speaker 1: Make sure you stretch.
Speaker 2: He's like, don't let your ship just get like fucking tight,
Speaker 2: and and just sees up on you need to like.
Speaker 1: Okay, damn, that's what you're thinking.
Speaker 2: Now, I'm like, okay the time that besides, actually these
Speaker 2: are both Netflix properties, listen to. This is simply the
Speaker 2: power of media and the magic of the movies. But
Speaker 2: this this came up for me when someone reviewed The Irishman,
Speaker 2: which is which is has de Niro with like a
Speaker 2: youthful face and the kind of and essentially that there
Speaker 2: was like, you know, it's the face is not as
Speaker 2: bad as you think, but he still looks his age
Speaker 2: because his movements are that of you know, his age,
Speaker 2: which is fine.
Speaker 1: Yeah. It has a scene hard where yeah, where they've
Speaker 1: de aged him and he like beats somebody else and
Speaker 1: it is the least. It's just like, guys, get a
Speaker 1: fu double here, what are we doing? Like you're just
Speaker 1: worried the whole time that he's going to topple over
Speaker 1: as he's supposed to be like showing off what a
Speaker 1: badass he is, and you're just like, oh, buddy, you're
Speaker 1: your legs bending.
Speaker 2: Yeah, why are you Why is your hand on your
Speaker 2: hip as you lean down to function?
Speaker 1: All right? I honestly thought about that scene when Mike
Speaker 1: Tyson fought that racist kid like the which one okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: whichever of the Paul brothers because of like his legs.
Speaker 1: Roy Jones Junior in the first round was like kind
Speaker 1: of like Mike's legs, And I was immediately like, that
Speaker 1: is exactly right. That's and I thought of the scene
Speaker 1: in The Irishman where like you could tell that he
Speaker 1: is not under the age of sixty because of the
Speaker 1: way he's like walking without bending his like there's no lightness,
Speaker 1: He's not light on his feet in any way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really telling. And Tyson used to be as
Speaker 2: a fighter like so that was the thing that I
Speaker 2: didn't really appreciate until I did a little bit of boxing.
Speaker 2: It's like he would like literally like drop it low
Speaker 2: sometimes during fights. Oh, he was so insanely flexible and
Speaker 2: like deft on his feet his heels. So yeah, that's
Speaker 2: a to me an underrated part of his game because
Speaker 2: everyone feared the power. But it's like, no, he can
Speaker 2: he can duck in a way that I did not
Speaker 2: realize a human back out trying to yeah right now, yeah,
Speaker 2: my nurse.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break to just rest
Speaker 1: and stretch out, do our mobility exercises. Miles, all right,
Speaker 1: we'll be back to get into this. We'll be right back,
Speaker 1: and we're.
Speaker 2: Back, thirsty virtualal inside.
Speaker 1: And did you come towards the camera? Bro?
Speaker 2: I don't know, man, It's crazy the level of physical
Speaker 2: comedy that's happening on this audio only podcast. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: this is great.
Speaker 1: Anyway, where were we? Let's talk Eric Adams real quick.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's just fun. He's still in it,
Speaker 1: still in it, baby, He's you know, Zorn Mumdani getting
Speaker 1: a lot of the attention. But you know, Eric Adams
Speaker 1: every once in a while, he'll pop back in be like,
Speaker 1: don't forget about motherfucker.
Speaker 2: Still here, still talking about the Twin Towers and corruption.
Speaker 2: But so Thursday morning, his former chief advisor, who quit
Speaker 2: fucking out of nowhere in December, was just hit with
Speaker 2: all kinds of charges related to her love of bribes
Speaker 2: and other grease payments. She's accused of accepting more than
Speaker 2: seventy five thousand dollars in bribes while serving in the
Speaker 2: mayor's administration, and the alleged conspiracy was outlined in four indictments,
Speaker 2: two of which included her son. The indictment alleges that
Speaker 2: her Son received fifty thousand dollars in exchange for steering
Speaker 2: city contracts for asylum seeker shelter sites for preferred property
Speaker 2: owners to help fast track permit approvals for a karaoke
Speaker 2: bar in Queens.
Speaker 1: This feels like par for the course of a New
Speaker 1: York City mayor. Oh yeah, this is what I feel like,
Speaker 1: a New York City mayor who's not doing this, not
Speaker 1: doing their just small.
Speaker 2: There's another one where she was steering permits and stuff
Speaker 2: in order to get home renovations for herself. And then
Speaker 2: there's like so many other ones that involve free food.
Speaker 2: Like thousands of dollars in catering is like the other grift, okay,
Speaker 2: but the other side of this is like it's only
Speaker 2: thousands of dollars in catering every bribe I've ever heard.
Speaker 2: I'm not saying there's small amounts of money there.
Speaker 1: They are big buck.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he is ten times smaller than I think
Speaker 2: they should be from Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah exactly, Like, yeah, what is happening in the
Speaker 1: world of like Wall Street and Finance, where they're just
Speaker 1: like moving casually moving, you know, like millions of dollars
Speaker 1: is like, yeah, it's only millions of dollars. You know
Speaker 1: how they are about it. Politicians are so broke, it's
Speaker 1: kind of that's kind of endearing.
Speaker 2: I mean that's why I think that's why corporations are like, well,
Speaker 2: you know what I can get for fifty grain?
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I can get? I can get
Speaker 1: a guy fucking killed. Yeah. I mean literally, a corporation doesn't.
Speaker 2: Have a way to keep track of fifty grand like
Speaker 2: that when it comes to them.
Speaker 1: Exactly, it does out in the wash, Yeah, exactly. This
Speaker 1: next stor this next anecdote is like that to the
Speaker 1: most extreme that I've ever heard, so to the point
Speaker 1: that I was like, she's not this is not like
Speaker 1: a bride. Still the very end, I was like, this
Speaker 1: is not a bribe. This is like this person just
Speaker 1: like for some reason doesn't understand that this looks weird.
Speaker 2: Okay, So so then okay, so that's just that's just
Speaker 2: the That was the teaser.
Speaker 1: Here's the fucking entre.
Speaker 2: So Wednesday, Eric Adams had an event for the New
Speaker 2: for a New campaign office he was opening in Harlem,
Speaker 2: and one of his advisers, this woman Winnie Greco, who
Speaker 2: is like his conduit to like the Asian American community
Speaker 2: in New York, saw a local reporter that covers like
Speaker 2: city hall affairs in attendance. She texts that journalist and is.
Speaker 1: Like, hey, can you meet me like across the street.
Speaker 2: They go to the Whole Foods around the corner, and
Speaker 2: the reporter's like, all right, this is fucking weird, but like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm a journalist, so of course, like some some person
Speaker 2: who's been investigated by the FEDS before, it's like, hey,
Speaker 2: you want to meet up, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1: Fucking see what's up. So they get to the Whole Foods.
Speaker 2: They have a brief convo and this woman Greco handed
Speaker 2: the journalist, Katie Honan, a bag of like sour cream
Speaker 2: an onion hers chips, and she's like, oh, no, I'm good,
Speaker 2: I'm not hungry, no, thank you, but Greco kept insisting
Speaker 2: she take it, and she's like, nah, I'm fine.
Speaker 1: She's like just keep it, just take it and keep
Speaker 1: just take this open bag of potato chips.
Speaker 2: Just take it, I know you and maybe look in
Speaker 2: it later. So I'm going to let this article from
Speaker 2: the City, which is the outlet that Honan works for,
Speaker 2: just the way they written up. It's amazing, so quote.
Speaker 2: The two parted ways before entering a nearby subway station.
Speaker 2: Honan opened the bag and discovered a red envelope inside
Speaker 2: stuffed with cash at least one one hundred dollars bill
Speaker 2: in several twenties. The reporter then called Greco and told
Speaker 2: her she could not accept the money, and asked if
Speaker 2: she was still nearby so she could give it back.
Speaker 2: Greco said she'd left the area. Honan told her she
Speaker 2: had to take the money back, and Greco said they
Speaker 2: could meet at some point in Chinatown. The reporter then
Speaker 2: texted Greco, quote, I can't take this. When can I
Speaker 2: give it back to you? She did not get a response.
Speaker 2: In an interview later Wednesday, the City asked Greko what
Speaker 2: her intention was for the paper, yeah, what her intention
Speaker 2: was in hand money to the reporter. In response, she
Speaker 2: said she'd made a quote mistake and apologized, quote I
Speaker 2: make a mistake, she said. I'm so sorry. It's a
Speaker 2: culture thing. I don't know, I don't understand. I'm so sorry.
Speaker 2: I feel so bad, right now I'm so sorry, honey,
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1: She is the best way to apologize for political for
Speaker 1: getting caught for your fucking one hundred and forty dollars. Ye.
Speaker 2: She then called the city back, advising that we call
Speaker 2: her attorney, Stephen Brillan, adding can we.
Speaker 1: Forget about this?
Speaker 2: I tried to be a good person. Please please please
Speaker 2: don't do in the news nothing about me. I just
Speaker 2: wanted to be her friend. I just wanted to have
Speaker 2: one good friend. It's nothing.
Speaker 1: So that is where I'm fully on her side. She
Speaker 1: her denial, her style of denial has fully worked on me,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, this is just a sad person who
Speaker 1: has no concept of what's going on, just maybe has
Speaker 1: some sense, Like she's been working in the Eric Adams
Speaker 1: office and just seeing people handing bags of cash back
Speaker 1: and forth. So she's like, this is just how people interact.
Speaker 2: It just looked like everyone just passes the same eighty
Speaker 2: bucks back and forth.
Speaker 1: That's important. It's like, I don't know, it's like a.
Speaker 2: Hot potato of hot potato chips bag that I get people.
Speaker 2: So they called her learn this is what the lyrics is.
Speaker 1: Quote.
Speaker 2: I can see how this looks strange, but I assure
Speaker 2: you that Whinnie's intent was purely innocent. In the Chinese
Speaker 2: culture none it's often given to others in a gesture
Speaker 2: of friendship and gratitude. Winnie is apologetic and embarrassed by
Speaker 2: any negative impression or confusion. This may have cost. Come on, now,
Speaker 2: don't don't blame the culture Whinnie. Although look, she did
Speaker 2: put in a red envelope. So she did put in
Speaker 2: a red Is this a photo in the document from
Speaker 2: the article? That's from that, that's from the from the article.
Speaker 1: Red envelope inside a bag of Also, she ate a
Speaker 1: lot of the fucking chips. This is mostly god But
Speaker 1: I was on her until you find out that the
Speaker 1: FEDS rated two of her properties during an investigation into
Speaker 1: straw donations. So she's just as she also did that.
Speaker 2: There's another investigation into her where she pressured a quote
Speaker 2: campaign campaign volunteer to do personal tasks for her for
Speaker 2: any in exchange for getting a city job.
Speaker 1: Sick. Yeah, I I listen.
Speaker 2: I know we already talked about the state of the
Speaker 2: bribe economy, but seriously, this is so fucking little money.
Speaker 2: This is yeah, yeah, this is why way more embarrassing
Speaker 2: than anything, Yeah, because it's more the story that it's like, bro,
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty bucks in that bag of sh
Speaker 2: in this economy, the bag of chips. This is literally
Speaker 2: like like I would be like, okay, it's time to
Speaker 2: like talk about options for mom if she did right,
Speaker 2: right right, like this can this can buy you seven
Speaker 2: bags of chips? What am I going to do with this?
Speaker 1: What I'm gonna do? The bag of chips that they
Speaker 1: put it in is more valuable. I think it would
Speaker 1: be wrong.
Speaker 2: I would have not to not to pitch to all
Speaker 2: the corrupt officials out there. I think it would make
Speaker 2: more sense to just be like I forgot, I put
Speaker 2: my money in my chips.
Speaker 1: That's actually smart. Yeah, Like I gave her that one
Speaker 1: that wasp wander to try the sour cream and onion.
Speaker 2: This thing in the Chinese culture when you give a gift,
Speaker 2: it's in it. That was for my young nephew. I'm
Speaker 2: so sorry, I really want I haven't had this flavor
Speaker 2: of hers sour cream and onion chips. I remember in
Speaker 2: the office they allude to this flavor. Chinese stereotype just dropped,
Speaker 2: which I know, money on the chips. I love it.
Speaker 1: They're always putting money in the chips. If you noticed
Speaker 1: this about them, the uh. There's a New York Magazine
Speaker 1: article that's also just talking about how overall there were
Speaker 1: many attempts to get an anti Momdani thing going, and
Speaker 1: all those attempts appear to be working out to not much.
Speaker 1: He's way ahead of Cuomo in the polls. Obviously the
Speaker 1: polls were wrong on the first one, but they were
Speaker 1: wrong in a very specific direction that the Inster media
Speaker 1: tends to favor, and also Cuomo. The only advantage that
Speaker 1: Cuomo had besides his like magnetism was just complete star
Speaker 1: power magnetism and a literal human being energy is the
Speaker 1: just massive amounts of money that he was raising, and
Speaker 1: he is for the general election raising less than he
Speaker 1: raised for the primary, so behind where he was in
Speaker 1: an election that was his to loose and he lost
Speaker 1: it pretty convincingly. Now he's way behind in this election
Speaker 1: and has less money to work with, which people think
Speaker 1: is not good for him. I also just the New
Speaker 1: York magazine article attributes it to the like, and you
Speaker 1: know the I don't think that he's going to catch
Speaker 1: him because Zorin is very talented, which I feel like
Speaker 1: we're going to see more and more this idea that like,
Speaker 1: it's not the ideas, it's it's not the ideas, it's
Speaker 1: not the policies. It's one person who's just it's he's cute. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's all the Democrats have a cute problem is all
Speaker 1: they they need to find go out and find people
Speaker 1: with embarrassing rap careers in their past. That's actually what
Speaker 1: the people are looking for, anything but the policies. I'm
Speaker 1: right here, I'm right here.
Speaker 2: I used to be in a rap group with Shilah
Speaker 2: buff Okay, that's terrifying. Truck keeps keeps making it. You know,
Speaker 2: he's he's he's.
Speaker 1: Just so hot.
Speaker 2: He's just so fucking hot, so hot. Right now, away
Speaker 2: from it, damn it.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back.
Speaker 1: And we're back. And so the big news story, you know,
Speaker 1: the president is using the military to occupy the nation's capital,
Speaker 1: like Lisa that we all forget that he is probably
Speaker 1: a serial pedophile. But the real big news story over
Speaker 1: the past couple days on social media has been the
Speaker 1: redesign of the cracker barrel logo, specifically the decision to
Speaker 1: as everybody at the same time, made noted on Twitter,
Speaker 1: they removed both the cracker and the barrel. The old
Speaker 1: the elderly white man and the barrel are gone and
Speaker 1: it's just the words cracker barrel in a font that
Speaker 1: is not very like I mean, it's the same coloring.
Speaker 2: It kind of looks like this, like the font for
Speaker 2: Continental Tires.
Speaker 1: And a reference I feel like, or one of the
Speaker 1: like coffee brands I feel like, has a similar Yeah.
Speaker 2: What is I've never been to a cracker barrel in
Speaker 2: my life. I guess, like, what are they? What's the
Speaker 2: food there? Like?
Speaker 1: Ship good? It's fine. I thought it was good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like what's the what's the cuisine? So the things
Speaker 1: that I've gotten there are biscuits and gravy. I think
Speaker 1: the producer.
Speaker 2: Said, bacon is a vegetable there, and yeah, yes, that's
Speaker 2: thank you got everybody in the terms of it's like
Speaker 2: what if Denny's was dinner.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it seems like a little bit better than Danny's.
Speaker 1: So it has like a folksy like they have little
Speaker 1: things on the walls like they used to have like
Speaker 1: ship on the floor. Did they used to have ship
Speaker 1: on the floor? There? No, that Texas roadhouse could have
Speaker 1: had like peanuts on the floor and and they cleaned
Speaker 1: it up, and then there's like the fucking woke no
Speaker 1: because we go to the shoot on the floor. I
Speaker 1: think you know what I.
Speaker 2: Will say for that, I I obviously it's such a
Speaker 2: hack thing to be like where did all these peanut
Speaker 2: allergies come from? But I got to imagine if you actually,
Speaker 2: you know, if you had a peanut allergy, the place
Speaker 2: with broken peanut shells all over the ground is pretty rough.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, that's that's just a very good point. That's uh,
Speaker 1: that's far from like banning peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
Speaker 1: at lunch. It's like, yeah, just ambient peanut dust is
Speaker 1: kind of our main feature.
Speaker 2: What if it was aerosolized.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was just like for ambiance is air borning.
Speaker 2: We've aerosolized peanut allergies into the allergens into the air.
Speaker 1: But yeah, so everybody is responding like this is the
Speaker 1: bud light campaign that enraged transphobes, And I don't the
Speaker 1: thing Dan that they're like it's the erasure of white men.
Speaker 2: Is that is that the of the complaint basically because
Speaker 2: they got rid of herridage.
Speaker 1: It really is.
Speaker 2: I guess I had never looked at a cracker barrel
Speaker 2: logo as much as I have in the last ten minutes.
Speaker 2: But it is a very, very, very the original logo
Speaker 2: very busy. It has like a half tone, relatively detailed
Speaker 2: illustration of an old white man on a leaning sitting
Speaker 2: on a chair and leaning on a barrel, and then
Speaker 2: the like graphic part of the logo starts, so it's
Speaker 2: like kind of like.
Speaker 1: A bean shape. It's a lot.
Speaker 2: It's so much going on. It is wild that I
Speaker 2: don't even think this CB is centered in the fucking
Speaker 2: logo either. No, you know, there's a lot of design
Speaker 2: choices are which is fine, Like clearly this was meant
Speaker 2: to be like it.
Speaker 1: Was carved, but the like if you go inside a
Speaker 1: cracker barrel, everything is like that, Like that is the
Speaker 1: vibe of a cracker barrel. Like every just junk like
Speaker 1: it's it is both a restaurant and a junk drug.
Speaker 2: Yes, right, there's like a gift shop and everyone's a
Speaker 2: gift shop.
Speaker 1: That is just like like there's little like math games
Speaker 1: and stuff like that like that. Uh, I describe a
Speaker 1: different cornpone ass garbage cornpone ass garbage is right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: like that's the that is the energy of it. Like
Speaker 1: I I do think this is an objectively bad logo
Speaker 1: design for a company that this fun is Yeah exactly,
Speaker 1: and like how kind of old, like the whole thing
Speaker 1: feels like it is. It's a Disney attraction for Like. Also,
Speaker 1: it is.
Speaker 2: Very clear that the old logo utterly unusable on social media,
Speaker 2: like honestly unusable in anything other than like three hundred
Speaker 2: pixels wide. I just don't understand why they didn't just
Speaker 2: take the graphic part and just use it on presumably
Speaker 2: presumably this all happened because whoever runs their Twitter account
Speaker 2: was like the truth social account was like you can
Speaker 2: hardly see the logo, can't make out what? So just
Speaker 2: use a different one for social media? Yeah, Well, because everything,
Speaker 2: you know, everything is moving to ard not moving. It
Speaker 2: already has moved towards minimalism in terms of like logo design,
Speaker 2: and it's just getting everything is getting stripped down more
Speaker 2: and more and more and more. That's like I think
Speaker 2: this like slight Wave can represent the entire logo that
Speaker 2: used to be iconic, so like in this sense with
Speaker 2: the cracker barrel thing I'm like, I get everything wants
Speaker 2: everyone wants to be minimal. But then it's funny too
Speaker 2: because you see a resurgence of retro design stuff come
Speaker 2: back too, which it was way more maximal, and now
Speaker 2: it's all just fucking just just.
Speaker 1: Designs I've seen in the past, like handful of years
Speaker 1: are Pepsi, and we'll get into their logo redesigned from
Speaker 1: the early.
Speaker 2: There's so much written here about this I can't believe.
Speaker 1: But like Pepsi finally went back to having the thing
Speaker 1: fucking centered with the word Pepsi written between the like
Speaker 1: red and the blue swirls and Burger King like did
Speaker 1: a retro version of Burger King where they're like, remember
Speaker 1: when we were good? Right, this movement away to just
Speaker 1: like a font this is just like I don't know,
Speaker 1: what if what if Jaguar, like that car brand which
Speaker 1: used to have a fucking Jaguar Jaar used to have
Speaker 1: a sick fucking Jaguar about to like eat something just
Speaker 1: like pouncing, just like moved over to looking like I
Speaker 1: don't know, some brand of like Wellness fucking water or
Speaker 1: something like a Wells bo vitamins.
Speaker 2: The Jaguar logo design sounds like it goes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks like the colors behind it should have
Speaker 1: like bubbles bubbling up.
Speaker 2: For I do very much wish that Cracker Barrel had
Speaker 2: also led. I'm assuming it was the like son of
Speaker 2: the owner of Cracker Barrel, the CEO Cracker Barrel, who
Speaker 2: pitched this like gen zification of it, or like, I
Speaker 2: wish they'd fully committed to doing one futurist Cracker Barrel location,
Speaker 2: just like like completely stark beige walls and just like
Speaker 2: trops of whatever. I don't know, Like some logans run
Speaker 2: like type shit, that's what I want, So I went,
Speaker 2: I want, so I went, So I went.
Speaker 1: Cracker Barrel.
Speaker 2: It's Julie Messino is getting all the heat now, the
Speaker 2: CEO and president of Cracker Barrel.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Why can't they go back to the time
Speaker 1: when their founder had a public policy of not hiring
Speaker 1: gay employees. Yeah, yeah, well those are the good old days.
Speaker 1: My request, I'd love for companies to keep doing this,
Speaker 1: because you know, anything that moves people in the direction
Speaker 1: of being like, oh, corporations are like dumb in bed
Speaker 1: and don't know what they're doing is great. I just
Speaker 1: would love for them to make all the paper, like
Speaker 1: all the decks publicly available, because how'd you get show
Speaker 1: your work? Please? I want to hear the bullshit like
Speaker 1: that leaks leak the deck.
Speaker 2: Yeah, before the Epstein files release the Cracker Barrel logo, redesigned.
Speaker 1: Decks, the Jaguar, the Cracker Barrel. The Pepsi one is
Speaker 1: like one of the great moments of like just realizing
Speaker 1: how fucking stupid and broken, like everything is just the
Speaker 1: everybody will link off to the article. I've linked off
Speaker 1: to it probably one hundred times in this podcast. They
Speaker 1: paid several hundred million dollars to change their logo from
Speaker 1: like the iconic one that you probably picture in your
Speaker 1: mind when you think of Pepsi to the one where
Speaker 1: it was like off center and like no, people are like, oh,
Speaker 1: it kind of looks like the Obama logo but not
Speaker 1: really so wild and like the the deck is so
Speaker 1: just like such amazing bullshit, like they have in one
Speaker 1: part they have like magnetic dynamic dynamics and like they
Speaker 1: have a picture of like the globe they like.
Speaker 2: The magnetic field of the actual earth jack And I
Speaker 2: think you should pay attention to the undulation of those
Speaker 2: waves because I feel like there's a there's a there's
Speaker 2: room for Pepsi there, I'm sure is what this asshole
Speaker 2: is said in a meeting.
Speaker 1: So C is magnetic dynamics. Magnetic fields are impacted by
Speaker 1: radiation and wind motion, and then see the Pepsi globe dynamic.
Speaker 1: This emotive forces shape the gestalt of the brand identity.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, obviously, I will say.
Speaker 2: Major, every major logo redesign is basically just wealth redistribution
Speaker 2: to people who do.
Speaker 1: Work to design, people who do LSD work. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And you know what, I'm not mad at that,
Speaker 2: although now it's a chat GPT, Yeah exactly. I mean
Speaker 2: this that these people should continue to have enough money
Speaker 2: to do a bunch of drugs at Burning Man.
Speaker 1: But as we know, continued investment provided Pepsi with a
Speaker 1: clear resource for reinvention. As the deck was quoted, they've
Speaker 1: got this one that is the old logo, and it's
Speaker 1: got two lines through it. One is like a you know,
Speaker 1: like the ray from geometry, where it's like a line
Speaker 1: pointing in one direction going one is moving from convention
Speaker 1: to innovation along a horizontal access axis. And then the
Speaker 1: other one that is like shooting upwards and giving off
Speaker 1: the new PEPSI logo is going from DNA to future.
Speaker 1: Of course, the two ends of that axis.
Speaker 2: Yes, what's the okay, what's the opposite of DNA future future?
Speaker 1: Exactly? Thank you? And that's where you know what.
Speaker 2: I will also say, though, it's that like, like this
Speaker 2: is just like the clearest example of why when when
Speaker 2: like people like business leaders deride the humanities. Hey, bro,
Speaker 2: if you were better versed in design and aesthetics and
Speaker 2: what art history, you wouldn't be able to be hoodwinked
Speaker 2: by this, right, Your ignorance is what allows you allows
Speaker 2: this industry to thrive. It's not that this stuff is bullshit.
Speaker 2: I mean, in this case, it's bullshit. If you just
Speaker 2: had some basic fluency and didn't require a consultant to
Speaker 2: tell you about aesthetics, you would not be susceptible to
Speaker 2: this type of more or less fraud. It's fucking unbelievable.
Speaker 2: I mean, like, yeah, right, Charlatan comes in and writes
Speaker 2: these fucking buzzwords down, like fucking euclidia geometry.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like, oh fuck, dude, that's so sick.
Speaker 2: And the asshole who did the pictures, like, bro, I
Speaker 2: did this shit in fucking twenty minutes, I yelled at
Speaker 2: my assistant, I was doing COVID.
Speaker 1: We improvising it now anyway.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so uh, that's what we're saying here, and we're
Speaker 2: definitely moving into a more sort of cartesian I guess,
Speaker 2: if you will, phil philosophical design language, and I think
Speaker 2: that would really just it would align well with the
Speaker 2: brand identity as we move from DNA on one end
Speaker 2: of the spectrum, break the paradigm and move into sure
Speaker 2: my future part with three with five thousand years worth
Speaker 2: of history.
Speaker 1: So it starts three thousand BC with like design concepts
Speaker 1: from back then, but like not really, I don't know.
Speaker 1: It just seems like a random assortment of shit. To
Speaker 1: six hundred BC. There's like the renaissances on there. Feng
Speaker 1: Shui is on there, two seventy eight BC, feng Shue
Speaker 1: up through eighteen fifty eight, MOBI a strip nineteen forty eight.
Speaker 1: I can't read that. Two thousand the modular, the modular,
Speaker 1: two thousand and nine PEPSI, and then a question mark
Speaker 1: to be like, and how will PEPSI yours?
