2:25
we're gonna get to know you a little bit better in a moment.
2:27
First, we're gonna tell our listeners a couple
2:30
of things we're talking about today. We're

3:01
is tomorrow. Herman
3:04
Kaine is out as you're fed
3:07
nominee. Uh, but not
3:10
just because he'd be really bad at the job, because
3:12
he's too late. Yeah, we're gonna
3:14
talk about Sri Lanka. We're gonna talk about
3:17
Wisconsin being the number
3:19
one state for frozen pizza consumption, and
3:22
the Playboy Club, all of that and more.
3:25
But first, Lisa, what is
3:27
something from your search history that's revealing about
3:29
who you are? I was looking
3:31
at my search history and I was so embarrassing
3:34
because everything I google is can
3:36
I give my dog this human food? Pretty
3:39
much everything? Bacon,
3:43
pineapple, uh, strawberry,
3:46
Yes, he can. I think
3:48
those are the last few I remember. Yes,
3:53
Well, I find like cutting it. I'll like yeah,
3:57
he's he is
3:59
accustomed to kind of coming up and begging
4:01
for scraps. Oh all the time. Yeah,
4:03
our dog is just a beggar.
4:06
Oh yeah, I thinks he's a chooser. Yes, yeah,
4:09
I mean I feel like with meat, I'm always I don't
4:11
I don't think twice. If it's like a meat thing,
4:14
I'm like, yeah, I'm sure you can eat this whopper.
4:16
Yeah, with cheese. But then
4:19
he has fruits that don't always kind of get I always look
4:21
up because I'm like, you never know what is not
4:23
good? What's the fruit? Is blueberries? Not alright?
4:25
Orberryes is fine? Avocados and no
4:28
avocados? No? Yeah, yeah,
4:31
oh no. Our dog likes
4:34
every food except bananas.
4:37
Really well, not with bananas. My dog is so picky,
4:40
Like I give him an apple slice
4:42
and then he'll just leave the skin, would
4:48
you please cut the crusts off? Just
4:51
looks at it like somebody's getting
4:53
lazy. R Like yeah, yeah.
4:55
Our dog is so about the scraps
4:58
that I will just find like a
5:01
dried noodle like in his fur somewhere,
5:03
because he just like knows when
5:05
my son is going to like drop some
5:07
pieces, right, So he's just always
5:09
it's like falling on his head constant, like manna
5:12
from heaven. Yeah, exactly. What
5:14
is something you think is overrated, overrated,
5:18
overrated. I'm
5:21
gonna say food trucks, I feel
5:23
like they're overrated. I feel like they're
5:25
done. I feel like it's enough. Okay, let's
5:28
talk some ship. Did you go to one recently
5:30
and you're like, you know what, this ain't it anymore? It's not
5:32
that because I do feel like the taco trucks
5:35
are like fine, but only because the price point
5:37
is good. Taco trucks are great because yeah, it's right,
5:39
it's affordable, and it's like for the people,
5:41
it's of the people, and it's delicious. But
5:43
like when you go to on the way
5:46
to work today, I got cut off by the doctor
5:48
Delhi fucking truck. Motherfucker
5:51
cut me off so hard, and I'm
5:53
trying to practice some zen ship I'm going through
5:56
right now. I'm really trying to get ahold of myself. Excuse
5:59
me. But when the doctor Deli cut me
6:01
off, and I just saw like the hokey nous
6:03
of it, and they're charging all this money for pastronomy
6:06
grilled cheese, that is not interesting to me. Do you know?
6:08
If he was on his way to a Deli related
6:10
medical emergency, that's the whole
6:12
thing. That's the thing I don't like about some
6:15
of these trucks is how like uh
6:18
kitchy or like nicky they
6:20
are with their menus because on that thing, it
6:23
literally was a prescription for
6:26
grilled cheese, grilled cheese, Prestronomy sandwich
6:28
with Parmesan fries. I've okay,
6:30
thank you two thousand seven. I've
6:33
seen that menu combination before. Also,
6:35
it's like eighteen dollars. It's
6:37
not like I don't
6:39
know about Dr Deli. If their prices are fair, then
6:41
I don't wanna bring you into this. But you did cut me off, motherfucker.
6:44
Any of those where it's like a specialty
6:46
waffle truck, You're like, fuck this, it's
6:48
gonna be so expensive and it's not even gonna be
6:50
a good waffle. Like just like,
6:53
can you get me a Lingua taco for less
6:55
than one dollars? Because if you can, I'm from
6:57
all for it and I'm here now.
7:01
I will say. The good thing is that it allows
7:04
different people to get into the restaurant game without
7:06
having to pay the overhead for I'm
7:09
not saying for a spot. And
7:13
where Cracked was located back
7:15
in the day in Santa Monica, we just had like
7:18
mobile Yeah, there was just a like mobile
7:20
food court that was always showing up. But
7:22
it's also tricky because man, there's
7:24
some like the difference between
7:27
a bad food truck and a good food truck is
7:29
just wide. Um.
7:32
I do want to shout out Vitos, the
7:34
Salvadoran food truck with the poopoosas
7:37
that's like a moderny food
7:39
truck that I'm like, yes, I'm here
7:41
for that too. Papoosa's, uh,
7:45
what is underrated besides Papoosa's
7:48
monogamy? Monogamy is underrated
7:51
controversial? You're telling
7:54
me here,
7:58
not a lot of great movies made about just
8:00
really great monogamous relationships.
8:03
I mean, was the start
8:05
like that because you consider the Nope, I've
8:08
I've never seen it. Yeah, I think it probably
8:10
is kind of about that, but it's also about
8:12
mental littleness. I think, yeah, there's a lot of
8:14
other things going on. Well, he has like what they
8:17
have all signs one of them, at least one of them.
8:19
I don't know, it's been a while spoiler alert, it's
8:21
been a while. Well, yeah,
8:25
I think literally fifteen years. Did that come in two
8:27
thousand four or something? Yeah? Probably, Um,
8:30
monogamy tell me more. I just think
8:33
that well, I'm a stand up comedian, and I feel
8:35
like I hear all this uh
8:38
talk about how like cool
8:40
it is to be open and and that's
8:43
great if that's your thing, that's cool. But I
8:45
think monogamy is cool too. What is it? What's
8:47
the advantage for you? The value that you feel people
8:50
aren't seeing in monogamy, Like I guess with the
8:52
openness, people like, well, you can try whatever you
8:54
want to be a little more free. Yeah, if that's
8:56
your vibe, you know, that's your vibe. But some people need consistency.
8:59
I guess. I think a lot of times that
9:01
for me, the parts of relationships
9:04
that are hard are what makes it more
9:07
valuable to me. Oh we've been
9:09
through this together, We've gone through this thing.
9:12
To me, that provides me with a lot of comfort
9:14
and security and maybe for other people it doesn't.
9:17
But that's why I think that monogamy
9:20
is underrated. Yeah, easy to take for
9:23
granted, but yeah, it could
9:25
be an amazing thing. Yeah. I mean, if I didn't have Her
9:27
Majesty, my partner by my side. When
9:30
um, I found
9:32
out Taco Bell wasn't serving Maxims anymore,
9:36
I just found out right now. Yeah, but luckily
9:40
our listeners are so fucking about
9:42
that life. They've taught me. The men you hack, you
9:44
know, get a cheesy roll up at beef at
9:46
Pico blood al hacked
9:49
Maximo would actually even more beef. So
9:51
you know, the Lord take it, then the Lord giveth
9:53
back. That's how I see it. But
9:55
yeah, it's true, like there is something to the
9:58
hard parts of life that do add
10:00
a dimension, like a depth or quality
10:02
to a relationship. But I guess I wonder
10:04
if that's a thing, like if that's just the nourishment
10:07
we need in our relationships that someone
10:09
who is more has like an open relationship
10:12
isn't as interested in that, because maybe it's about
10:15
literally the actual being able to love as
10:17
many different people as possible. Yeah,
10:19
yeah, I don't want to shoot on people who are in open relationships.
10:22
I just think monogamy is underrated.
10:24
The only people are shooting on people talk a bell for taking
10:26
the Mexic and making me sound
10:29
wild when I'm trying to reverse engineer
10:31
the ship at the drive through. And I think just in general,
10:33
like in the same way that like certain crimes
10:35
are overreported because they're just like more
10:38
interesting and get better ratings. Like
10:41
uh, you know, monogamy just doesn't really
10:43
get talked about because it's somewhat boring, but
10:45
it is a It is a thing that probably
10:48
gets culturally underrated. People
10:50
think it's not cool and it's actually really
10:52
hard. Welcome to the new show called Yeah, I
10:54
guess our single friends are having fun. But there's like
10:57
also something pretty tight to being a loving man too,
11:01
that's right. Uh? And finally,
11:03
what is a myth? What's something people
11:05
think is true? You know to be false? Are
11:08
good? The buffets are good? Yeah?
11:11
Wow? Okay, all
11:13
buffets? I
11:17
mean yeah, like I guess, I
11:20
guess there are exceptions every rule,
11:22
but yeah, generally generally they all suck.
11:24
What do you think when in your mind the kind of buffet
11:26
being like, that's bull that's a bullshit buffet. What do we
11:29
what are we talking? Like Vegas buffet? Like
11:32
any I don't know anywhere, Sue
11:35
plantation, any like anything of
11:37
what those many ice creams you
11:39
know, I mean I don't really Yeah,
11:43
you could get you could get ice cream somewhere, that's very
11:45
totally. I didn't know that though. After
11:48
the show, if you could tell me some other places. I
11:50
thought it was only a super plant. I
11:52
just you know, what the only reason I recoiled
11:54
was because I love a breakfast buffet,
11:57
and that's where I think it's a little a
12:00
different hotel in the morning. Yeah,
12:02
like on a cruise ship, like
12:04
I'm nasty, I like a
12:07
funk. I just want to blow the plate up with
12:09
I'm a nasty breakfast eating motherfucker,
12:11
and I just want to have like because on a cruise
12:14
ship they have like international breakfast, so you have
12:16
bangers too, you know. Then they also have like a
12:18
little eggs benny, you know if
12:20
you want to if that's your jam, and then Asian stuff
12:22
too. I was like, what me, So soup yea and
12:25
eggs with bacon sounds
12:28
gross. I'm not gonna Yeah, I know, I know that's what
12:30
I'm saying. And I'm a self proclaimed
12:33
nasty buffet dude, but
12:36
I know that they're also when but when you get into like
12:38
the actual like a dinner buffet, that's
12:41
when the quality is just like ship, I think, just breakfast,
12:43
it's easier for me to lower my bar for quality.
12:45
The qualities grows also, I mean it's
12:48
so much easier to guess it because people aren't
12:50
just hing stuff with their
12:53
hands and like doing the most it's
12:55
so bad. Yeah, well
12:58
breakfast buffets, breakfasts and
13:01
then yeah, but even like in Vegas too, there's
13:03
like the ones that are like good or
13:06
like sixty five bucks, and even then
13:08
you're like, let's just go to a restaurant,
13:10
but it's all you can eat and
13:13
you expect it to be good and it's not.
13:15
And also like the service is
13:18
usually okay, like they
13:20
come and fill your drinks up or you know. However,
13:23
however often is right
13:26
yeah yeah, And I
13:28
bet those people probably don't even get like tipped or
13:30
anything because people are just like, yeah,
13:33
I know, yeah right, that people be like I
13:36
actually did all the work, even
13:38
though you cleaned up my nasty ass mess, like
13:40
in between me getting new plates and ship Yeah
13:43
yeah again, always tip, always
13:46
tip, real quick. We wanted to bring
13:48
up the fact this has been an ongoing
13:50
survey ever since yesterday when we talked
13:53
about the stomach pump rumor. We've
13:55
gotten some wild ass answers on
13:58
winter people heard that
14:01
rumor about and uh,
14:03
Lisa, you said that you didn't really have the
14:06
stomach pump rumor you had heard the
14:08
Marilyn manson moving
14:11
a rib for at that seems to
14:13
be the number one rumor everybody
14:16
heard in high school. I don't think there's anybody
14:18
who was alive between the years
14:20
and who
14:22
did not hear something to that effect. Right.
14:24
I had actually also heard it about Prince
14:27
I think at once yea in
14:29
the seventies or early eighties.
14:36
Uh um, but yeah,
14:38
we heard Alanis Morrisset Britney
14:40
spears. So it's basically any
14:43
woman that like made
14:45
men slightly uncomfortable or made
14:47
young men slightly uncomfortable, and then
14:50
any dude who was like a little bit like,
14:53
you know, fluid when it comes
14:55
to like there was Elton John, there was a
14:58
UK rock star who I
15:00
wasn't familiar with, but I
15:02
think Sanctaneed Love was the UK
15:05
version of that rumor. Uh so
15:08
that's when you know you've made it. Yeah, if
15:10
you get if you get the wild homophobic
15:13
myth about you, I can't wait
15:16
to get my stomach. Would
15:20
people please start that rumor about me? Not
15:26
oblige maybe
15:29
not. Miles is looking at me like maybe that's it.
15:31
I mean, it's better that they
15:33
start organic. You don't want to look thirsty. Um,
15:37
you don't want to be too thirsty because thing you might
15:39
have to get your stomach bumped exactly. Just let
15:42
it happen. Let the let the controversial ship
15:44
just come to you organically, and who knows it could
15:46
organically happen. We're also
15:48
talking about New Kids on
15:50
the Block, had a bunch of hits, had a bunch
15:53
of hits. Chinese food makes me sick, but
15:55
I love when girls stopped by
16:00
you. You know. We're talking about this
16:03
rumor that the New Kids on the Block.
16:05
Like I think the rumor I heard was that New
16:07
Kids on the Block. Like a doctor
16:10
found other members of New
16:12
Kids on the Block semen in the
16:15
but of like one
16:18
of the other members, and Miles
16:21
was like, yeah, because of that always
16:23
common medical practice where you're
16:25
going for a checkup and they check your butt seen
16:29
and they cross reference that with people you know,
16:32
and there's thousands of untested rape kids.
16:34
Yea, we
16:37
got to check out check. Yeah. Yeah,
16:41
maybe that's why that one didn't spread to New
16:47
Kids. And Mark Mark wasn't the one that
16:49
was in New Kids. Yeah, wow,
16:53
don't slander Jordan though, right, he
16:55
didn't deserve anything he did. Yeah
16:58
yeah, okay, that's going
17:00
to say Frontman, classic
17:02
front Man. Alright, guys, let's talk
17:05
about Avengers end game. The
17:07
anticipation is building. Miles.
17:09
You said you've never seen an Avengers now man,
17:13
you were gonna I got. I
17:16
saw I think what was one of the first
17:18
big Marvel movies to come out of the Disney
17:21
side of things, or the Iron Man Iron Man?
17:23
Right, Yeah, I was there for Iron Man. I was
17:25
there for Iron Man too. I was there
17:27
for Iron Man three Man. I
17:30
went there for Oheda iron Man. I
17:32
was there, and then like Thor came
17:34
out. I wasn't a big Thor fan because I was
17:37
just like, dude, just got a hammer, and
17:39
just as a comic. I never really read Thor. I read
17:41
x Men, so I was seen every x Men film and then
17:44
Marvel just came out with New Ship like every
17:46
couple of months that I just got overwhelmed and I just kind
17:48
of gave up. I was like, I can't keep up, and I'm
17:50
not gonna want to see Black Panther too,
17:53
right, you
17:55
I've been lying about that too, know. I was like saying, that's the one
17:57
Marvel film that I have seen and
18:00
had seen repeatedly. But I got overwhelmed.
18:02
They hit me too hard and fast, and then I'm like such
18:05
a person who likes to read everything and know
18:07
about everything. That at that point when the
18:09
Avengers film came out, I had people telling
18:11
me like, oh, well, they all connect. It's really
18:13
cool how they connect with the other films. And I was like, then,
18:15
this is probably wasted on me because I have not seen
18:17
any of the other ones, and that
18:20
that built on itself snowball effect, And here I am,
18:22
I'm the ignorant one during this huge cultural
18:24
moment. Yeah, speaking of the Stomich
18:26
pump rumor, Yeah, snowball effect. Snowball
18:29
effect, Lisa,
18:31
you're you're an Avengers fan. Jack can't
18:33
wait to see it. I'm sure it's going to be great.
18:35
Yeah. I do feel like every time you watch when
18:37
you do, feel like you want to watch all of the other ones over
18:39
again. So I totally get being overwhelmed. Like
18:42
when Infinity War came out, my boyfriend
18:44
I were like, let's see, like which ones around Netflix.
18:46
Of course there's like none, but we
18:48
were like, oh, we'll see if we can find a way to watch
18:50
them. And now there's a ton on Netflix.
18:53
I feel like I don't even have excuses anymore because like, most
18:55
of them are accessible, we can find them. I
18:57
didn't have a similar issue with Thor too, though.
19:00
But Ragnarok is so
19:03
good. Okay, everybody, everybody.
19:06
I started watching it and I was too high,
19:09
and when I woke up, the credits were happening.
19:11
Ye, but it was it seemed pretty
19:13
tight. Yeah, I don't remember.
19:16
That's my experience too, But that was that
19:19
during the whole thing. Well, I mean it makes sense
19:21
because it is also when I see
19:23
it, I get it for what it is. Like You're seeing all of
19:25
this great concentration of superhero
19:27
stuff and one contained thing, and you can see
19:30
them interact just like you did in the comic books. Um,
19:32
and you know when you look at the the fervor
19:35
across the globe, Yeah, you
19:37
know. I guess I'm the odd one. I mean,
19:39
this seems like it happens every time a new
19:42
Avengers movie comes out. But you know, all
19:44
my friends are texting, like where
19:46
where they're going to see it? When they're gonna see it, like
19:48
if they got tickets or whatever. That doesn't
19:51
happen with really any other movie or franchise.
19:54
AMC theaters have announced they're
19:56
going to stay open for seventy two hours
19:58
in a row, uh to
20:01
make room for all the people who want to see it,
20:03
and also the fact that it is as long
20:06
as The Godfather. It is three hours
20:08
long. It's three hours long.
20:10
Yeah, yo, can you imagine
20:13
I feel bad for people? Yo?
20:15
Good look, keeping your eyes open. Man.
20:18
I saw Fast and Furious eight off edible fell
20:20
to sleep through the whole zombie car sequence. Um,
20:23
I just have a problem sleeping movie theater tired.
20:27
No, it's the seats are too freaking comfortable
20:29
now, especially those the ships that like fully
20:31
recline in a bed
20:33
at a certain point. Anyway to the AMC
20:37
thing, Yeah, seventy two
20:39
hours. Can you imagine like you're already in a like
20:41
a tour. Let's say you're at a one o'clock showing
20:43
and you got to stay all the way up through for too
20:46
old for that? Yeah. The first
20:49
I think I went and saw a movie a
20:52
midnight showing of Terminator
20:55
two when I was very young. And that's the only
20:57
time I've seen a movie that late. That's that's what you
21:00
saw Bridge to Terabithia midnight show. Oh
21:02
yeah, yeah, yeah, that's true. I love going to
21:04
a midnight movie. Really. Yeah, I don't sleep
21:06
well anyways, right, Yeah,
21:10
Well, are you looking for any specific
21:12
outcome in this film. Nah,
21:14
I just like when there's when
21:16
there's an ending. Yeah, Um,
21:20
China has pre sold twenty seven million
21:22
dollars worth of midnight showing
21:24
tickets alone. That
21:27
is that's for you. I
21:29
mean, could you even do that in America? Like,
21:31
I feel like that China is just so
21:33
big that I mean, I don't know how. I'm sure that that
21:36
has to compare to the US and on
21:38
some level, even though there are you
21:40
know, way more customers out there. People
21:42
don't think it's going to be a billion dollar opening,
21:44
but that idea of a billion
21:46
dollar opening, the possibility of a billion dollar
21:49
week at the box office is
21:52
has been raised wait for
21:55
real, yeah, like worldwide
21:57
because with the global might that this
21:59
is gonna be huge in the United States and it might be
22:01
even bigger in China. So but yeah,
22:04
for a bunch of actors, this is the end. This
22:06
is my only friend. For r
22:09
d J as iron Man, I think
22:11
is what people are expecting. And Chris
22:13
Evans, I know, for like, has has
22:16
tweeted about the fact that this is it. So
22:18
yeah, man, Ruffalo, I think I
22:21
think he's gone after this. He's
22:23
um. Also, he's just been taking a lot of internet
22:25
breaks, and like, I think he wants out the game.
22:28
What do you mean he's taking a lot of internet break, Like he'll go off
22:30
Twitter. I'm a big fan, he'll
22:34
like not be online at all. Oh,
22:36
so he's just he's I think
22:38
he does those environmentalist things too. So
22:42
I think he's really um, maybe taking
22:44
a step out your fan of you can count on me.
22:46
I haven't seen it. And you're
22:48
a Mark Ruffalo fan, Yeah you should check
22:50
out what you can count my favorite Mark Ruffalo
22:53
performance. I like Mark Ruffalo. Okay, I can't
22:55
wait. Okay,
22:58
yeah, new
23:00
Mark Marky Mark movie. Yeah, all
23:02
right, Well we're gonna take a quick break and then
23:04
we'll be right back and
23:16
we're back and uh.
23:18
We have consulted some people
23:20
from the younger generation on the
23:23
younger like a a friend
23:25
in college, a friend
23:28
or one of our co workers who is
23:30
not too far out of college, and they
23:33
have confirmed that the stomach pump rumor did
23:35
not persist, which just
23:37
goes with the Flynn effect that each
23:39
generation is smarter than the last. So yeah,
23:42
I think is that they're just like, yeah, that doesn't
23:44
make anything, because back in our day, the only like
23:46
way we could fact check something was to
23:48
ask someone's older brother or sister
23:51
who was probably the origin of the myth. They're like, yeah,
23:53
dude, it's true. Yeah, I'm all
23:56
right, thanks Mark. Yeah, yeah.
23:58
I don't like keep saying Mark, Mark Ruffalo,
24:00
he's on the brain. Yeah, maybe he's the one who told
24:02
us this rum. Better Mark Wallberg Ruffalo
24:05
Rufflo. I don't know. I
24:08
mean better in what way, like as
24:10
a human being. I don't know, as a human being, Mark
24:12
Ruffalo. Come on, dude, Walberg
24:14
gets up at two in the morning work. I don't know
24:16
how many racist attacks Mark Ruffalo
24:19
has done on people. So have you seen the Wallberg's
24:22
television show Reality? Yes,
24:25
it's excellent. Is it really excellent?
24:27
I love trash TV reality
24:32
because they're just they're insane. They're
24:34
just just angry at each other all the time. They're just yelling
24:36
and like talking about the Yeah,
24:40
okay, ok, let's
24:42
talk about the Supreme Court of the United States.
24:44
The only subject that can follow
24:47
that conversation. Stomach
24:52
pump. I mean this whole thing, right, The
24:54
Supreme Court is has a very
24:57
very busy schedule coming up. First, they're
24:59
gonna be who knows whether they're going to
25:01
come down on the census case on
25:03
whether or not to include a citizenship
25:05
question, Um, that will probably
25:08
you know, the census people have said
25:10
they need to know by there should be
25:12
some kind of decision around June when they need to begin
25:15
printing census materials. But that would
25:17
be the one that would add a question about citizenship, which
25:20
most people on the left, they're saying that's gonna
25:22
have a chilling effect on people. Yeah,
25:25
exactly. And then but you know, the argument on the right
25:27
is like, well, we need a holistic answer, we need to know what we
25:30
have to keep track of everything. But the census is so important,
25:33
like in terms of how funding is moved around and
25:36
things like that, subsidies, uh, subsidies
25:38
and the like that to have
25:40
this question that they know could prevent
25:43
people from answering. Honestly, they're like, this could
25:45
this could potentially hurt states that have more illegal
25:48
uh like or illegal immigrant populations
25:50
or people who are not citizens. Yeah, I mean, on its
25:53
what's the point of a census if we're not gonna
25:56
have people answering it or you know what I mean?
25:58
Yeah, Like, it doesn't I think any sense
26:00
to have it if you're gonna I think, on its surface,
26:03
it's hard to argue with We'll just ask him the
26:05
question, like why why wouldn't answer it? But there's
26:07
like this huge, long history of
26:10
people being scared to take the census
26:12
and the senses being used to kind
26:14
of pry and just like dark
26:16
Ship, like there's a whole oral
26:20
history of the senses being like a
26:22
conspiracy by the government. So like, from
26:25
a practical perspective, adding this question
26:27
is basically designed to make the country
26:30
seem wider and less
26:33
diverse than it actually is, and it shifts
26:35
congressional representation to It has that effect
26:38
too of how things are represented in Congress.
26:40
And if you do something that is meant to keep
26:43
some people from answering, then you're like, ha
26:45
ha, brit Yeah, I mean I'm a American
26:47
and I definitely check white, So I don't know, and
26:50
maybe that's the problem, but well,
26:53
I think it's just and I think at the very sense
26:55
it's you know, I think
26:57
a lot of people the question is like, like
26:59
you're like, kids will affect the accuracy
27:03
um because people who are undocumented
27:06
could avoid it all together or deliberately misreport
27:08
themselves as legal. So there's no way
27:10
to read that's that's why. It's like, even if
27:12
you ask, you don't know how the person is going to answer
27:15
truthfully, So like, why don't we just get a number
27:17
of how many just fucking people are here? Let's
27:19
we don't need to know how many people are citizens, because
27:22
if you want to, you can use that information for
27:25
aims that are less uh compassionate,
27:28
more about you know, maintaining power. We don't ask
27:31
sexual orientation or anything on there, right, So I
27:33
don't know, I think that the more detailed
27:36
and specific it gets, the scarier
27:38
it gets a little bit. Yeah, And I think that's I
27:40
think that's just sort of shitty defense that
27:43
they're using from the Trump administrations, like, oh,
27:45
of course not, We're not trying to do anything evil.
27:47
We just we just have to know so
27:50
we can do ef move direction.
27:53
And then in addition to that, they're also hearing three
27:55
very important cases having to do with discrimination
27:59
against lgb t Q people. That's
28:01
Altitude Express VERSARDA. Bow
28:03
Stock versus Clayton County R G and g
28:06
R. Harris Funeral Homes versus E E O C. So
28:08
they aren't just on the surface, it's about
28:10
people who have been you know, fired or
28:13
their employment terminated, because of their
28:15
sexual orientation or gender identification.
28:18
And Title seven of the
28:20
Civil Rights Act of nineteen
28:22
sixty four, the way it's written,
28:25
it prohibits employers from discriminating
28:27
quote against any individual with respect
28:29
to his compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges
28:32
of employment because of such individuals race,
28:34
color, religion, sex, or national
28:36
origin and sex meaning gender.
28:38
Here. Now, if the Supreme
28:40
Court, like if they're looking at it, just
28:42
at the text, when you use the term because
28:45
of sex, that would actually forbid anti
28:47
l g B t Q to discrimination because
28:49
it's the same way, you know, like if you're
28:52
you're looking at someone's orientation as a function
28:54
of their gender or whatever their sex, and if
28:56
it doesn't abide by what the employer thinks is
28:58
right, then they're using that to discriminate against
29:00
someone. But then you have people on
29:03
the right, on the Trump administration, who are arguing
29:05
that, you know, the Civil Rights Act wasn't intending
29:07
to cover those rights back in nineteen
29:10
sixty four, so they're not actually protected.
29:12
They're using a very narrow, narrow
29:14
view of it um and that's where
29:17
like, so all of these decisions are
29:19
going to have a knock on effect because it might not just be
29:21
about these specific cases, but also how the Supreme
29:23
Court is viewing the Civil Rights Act,
29:26
which could lead to just bizarre
29:29
interpretations of what even sexual harassment
29:31
is. I also think that if
29:34
we want to talk about what the intention of
29:37
that Civil Rights Act was, maybe
29:40
they would have wanted to cover right,
29:42
Yeah, and I think maybe they didn't include
29:45
it in the verbage, but maybe they would have wanted to cover
29:47
well. And that's what even like antonin Scalia
29:50
had to sort of face that in
29:52
a case about male on
29:54
male sexual harassment. And you
29:57
know, they use this thing of like the principle
30:00
evil that the Congress had
30:02
identified when they passed it. But
30:04
they're saying, but the language and it does you
30:06
know, sometimes it's not about what the people were
30:09
specifically talking about then, but the language
30:11
of the law done covers things beyond
30:13
that. And it's whether or not they're going to take
30:15
that view of it or or well, what did
30:17
they say when they did this? Um. So
30:20
it's a very it's you know, it'll
30:22
well, we'll see what happens. But these
30:24
are three cases to keep our eyes on. Will
30:26
four with the census case, just because
30:28
it could have very bad repercussions
30:31
in terms of discrimination. Um, and
30:33
with you know, Gorsch and Kavanaugh on
30:36
the team now, so it's hard to
30:38
think of how the
30:40
Supreme Court would decide this that isn't
30:42
in favor of the Trump administration. Yeah.
30:45
I mean, they have surprised some people
30:47
with regards to uh, you
30:49
know, some of their rulings on I think abortion
30:52
rights. But this seems
30:54
like that more gray area
30:57
where they're going to side with the Trump
30:59
administration, not even gray area, just
31:01
like I don't know, I just get the vibe
31:03
that they're going to be fucking assholes
31:06
about this. Well, yeah, and it's going to take
31:08
a very distorted view of
31:10
the law from the Supreme Court to try and arrive
31:12
at this conclusion to like a potentially
31:15
upending decades worth of anti
31:17
discrimination law. Let's
31:20
talk about Joe Biden, shall
31:22
we for a moment. Yeah, one of my
31:25
sounds like he might announce his candidacy
31:28
tomorrow, Thursday. But then they're also rumors
31:30
that maybe it won't be Thursday because his aids
31:33
are being so specific and tactical
31:35
of like, well when do we want it? What messaging
31:37
doing type, when do we do it? But it seems like Thursdays
31:41
the day and he's leading in the polls.
31:43
Excites me because I think and
31:47
I obviously live in the liberal bubble here,
31:49
but a lot of my friends have been kind
31:51
of bickering about who and what
31:53
and how, and I
31:56
think a lot of them would be excited
31:58
to see Joe Biden. I think a lot of people are excited
32:00
because of the familiarity of Joe
32:02
Biden. And then for me personally, his
32:05
politics aren't progressive enough
32:07
for me to be excited because there I feel
32:09
like we need a lot of radical change.
32:12
Um. But when you look
32:14
at the polling, a lot of the establishment
32:17
money, the polling data
32:19
is like the money's on Biden. Yeah, but
32:21
Bernie Sanders is very close. I think it's t is
32:24
Biden is Sanders, and then
32:26
there's nobody else with double digits, well
32:29
did not even Yeah,
32:31
there was a poll that just came out that had Sanders
32:33
five points ahead of Biden, which
32:36
I think it was changing. Man. Yeah,
32:39
I think that might be what kind
32:41
of put a fire under
32:44
his ass a little bit, maybe because it
32:46
seemed like it's easy
32:48
to sit out of the race when
32:50
you're the front runner and you haven't even announced,
32:53
right once you start losing
32:56
some of that edge to to somebody who's
32:58
picking up momentum, and you see, you
33:00
know, other other candidates picking up momentum,
33:02
and the only thing that you're making headlines
33:05
about is uh, you know, kissing
33:07
people on the back of the head and mashing
33:09
your foreheads together. Then uh,
33:12
yeah, it makes sense that he wants to announce.
33:15
Now. I was just gonna say, he's one of my favorite
33:17
people to discuss when it comes to uh in
33:19
the context of Conservative Supreme
33:22
Court nominees, just because he was so
33:24
helpful. And Clarence Thomas, yeah, um,
33:27
he was team team Thomas on that
33:29
one. Thomas. I mean, so we'll
33:31
see. But at least now you know, we're starting to
33:34
move into that phase of the campaign where candidates
33:36
are actually like saying things out loud
33:38
of substance. Um, and you know,
33:40
Elizabeth Warren's candidate is saying
33:42
things well, I guess two candidates well
33:46
and yeah, and uh. Everyone
33:49
kind of has their way of kind
33:51
of being vague enough that they don't have to get
33:54
really fully defined their positions in case things
33:56
swing the other way, they don't have to change their positions
33:58
suddenly. But like with even
34:01
Elizabeth Warren's announcement of like forgiving
34:03
student debt, and then she even gave a really good
34:05
answer and at a town hall where this young college
34:07
student was saying like, you know, I'm I'm an aspiring
34:10
police officer, Um, what kind
34:12
of legislation will you put forth to protect police?
34:15
And she was like, I hear you, And
34:17
then she was just sort of like, I'm gonna
34:19
be real with you. The criminal justice systems fucked
34:21
up because of racism. And then he's
34:24
like, there's your answer, essentially. But
34:26
I think her who whole idea is like the way
34:28
you would even begin to protect police
34:31
is to create some sense of trust
34:33
within the community that the criminal justice system
34:35
is actually working. And she did like this very
34:38
She's got that school teacher energy where
34:40
she was just like, you know, here's some stats. You know, African
34:43
Americans are more likely to be arrested for the
34:45
same crimes than a white person doing the exact same
34:47
crime go to trial, and just you
34:50
know, boiled it down very easily. And I was
34:52
like, and I think we have to just confront these kinds
34:54
of things head on to just make the criminals astice
34:56
system fairer and leaner, more balanced.
34:58
And I was like, Okay, I like it when
35:00
people answer the question that they weren't
35:03
asking, you know what, I mean, they wanted
35:05
to say, right, and I think someone else might just
35:07
be like the real politicians answer could have been something
35:10
like, you know, that's a really great question. And I think
35:12
we all need to ask ourselves when
35:14
we live in the community such as this one, who
35:16
are the people we want to protect? And are those ones
35:18
that are protecting us? Are we doing enough to
35:20
protect them? And that's something I want to look
35:22
into. Miles. I didn't know you were running this year. Yeah,
35:26
I'm fou, but I use it for good,
35:28
not evil. I mean, I could use
35:30
it for evil, but you'll you'll you'll see
35:32
when my line of homeopathic
35:34
remedies products come out. Yeah, I mean,
35:36
Elizabeth Warren is blowing everyone
35:38
out when it comes to like actually
35:42
putting forward policy and policy
35:44
ideas. But that is not a
35:46
thing that people typically do this early
35:49
or even at all in a presidential campaign.
35:52
And I mean did it she did.
35:54
She put out a ton of white papers and then
35:56
because she was like, well, here's all my here on my positions. Here my
35:59
positions, but it kind of lost. They got lost
36:01
in the in the Medican That's
36:03
what I was gonna say, is I think there's a reason political
36:07
analysts and you know, all the fucking
36:10
terrible people who ruined politics,
36:13
uh tell you not to do
36:15
this is because it doesn't
36:18
get that big of a hit. I'm
36:20
gonna actually read a tweet by Mike Drucker. He
36:22
tweeted Elizabeth Warren and that
36:25
is why I've created a sustainable
36:27
plant based fuel that will allow us
36:29
to colonize Mars and prevent any future
36:32
wars over media versus
36:34
in media. Hey, everyone quick, there's
36:36
a dog on a skateboard running for president.
36:38
Everyone runs out. I do feel
36:41
like that is sort of how
36:43
Elizabeth Warren's being treated a little
36:46
bit. People Like she's putting out all these policies.
36:48
People are like, oh, that's dope. Anyway. Pete
36:50
bog though, man, he's he. I
36:52
like the way he talks. It's like, no, she just
36:54
gave off. She just said she was going to cancel student
36:57
death for sevent of the country. Yeah, okay,
36:59
whatever. Anyways, but I want you know what
37:01
you can at me if you're listening on this. One
37:04
of my favorite things are those surveys where
37:06
you fill out what you believe and
37:08
then it tells you which candidate when
37:10
those start coming out, send me those. Yeah,
37:14
it makes it very easy, and it gives you the percentages
37:16
because then I'm like, oh, I didn't know I was so closely
37:18
aligned with Jill Stein or whatever. You
37:22
know. And I think just to your point about
37:25
candidates not articulating their positions
37:28
early on, I prefer if they do, because
37:30
that's somebody who's saying they already have a
37:33
vision for what they want to do, rather than like,
37:35
let me just do what's gonna actually be the
37:37
popular thing, and I can just you know, wiggle
37:39
my way into that position if you come
37:42
off the rip saying these are the things I'm
37:44
I want that I'm saying, oh, this is a person who
37:46
at the very least has a well defined
37:48
idea of what principles or values they
37:50
have as a president. Not to say that
37:52
someone who doesn't doesn't have values,
37:55
but I I just there's something too that
37:57
if you're confident in what your platform is, then
38:00
you know, and I mean Bernie like has had
38:02
a lot of success just just
38:04
being a policy guy, just being like, these are
38:07
the things that I stand for. These are like the
38:09
five to ten policies that I will always
38:12
say I stand for and like that's
38:14
it. He doesn't have a lot of other like charismatic
38:17
ship. It's just he's the he's
38:19
the guy who has these policies that are fairly
38:21
easy to understand and very popular.
38:24
Um and I think, you know, Elizabeth
38:27
Warren has really you
38:29
know, policies that make sense on a Okay,
38:32
I just sat down and read a
38:34
paragraph and it makes sense to me type
38:37
policies, which is something that I do think in comparing
38:40
it to uh, Hillary Clinton
38:42
in two thousand and sixteen, that Hillary
38:44
Clinton never really had that like coherent
38:47
okay, She's like this is where she
38:49
stands on everything type
38:51
thing like it. I feel like it was more
38:53
like nuanced with her and more yes.
38:56
But at the same time this and that like
38:59
it was it was little bit harder to figure
39:01
out exactly where she was yeah, or I don't
39:03
know, or just not paying attention because most
39:05
of us are like yeah, yeah, whatever you
39:08
yeah, yeah, more on them, not like
39:10
yeah yeah fine, good, good good. It's not
39:12
this other guy. Yeah that's true, and then cut to you're
39:14
like, oh, yeah, okay,
39:17
yeah, well I'm just explaining why I didn't vote
39:19
for yeah, right, I just couldn't
39:21
know I'm just well, yeah,
39:23
I mean, look, the the Russia,
39:26
the Russian Bureau of Tourism treated you very
39:28
well on that junking trip you went on. That's
39:30
true. As a charismatic leader,
39:32
I mean, what can I say? Hey, and hell of a judo practitioner
39:36
and attractive. You see
39:38
him play hockey, I mean as
39:41
if you scored twenty goals, and because
39:43
people let him, I thought he couldn't get more
39:45
handsome. And then I saw him play hockey and
39:48
I was like what I saw
39:50
him nail a slap shot from
39:52
mid ice with mid ice hu
39:55
Yeah, not even you can't say like the Blue Liners.
39:57
Yeah, I mid ice like
40:00
mid court in basketball. Yeah he did.
40:02
He did a wrist shot from the other side.
40:07
Anyways, he hit him. He hitted him with his
40:10
dick. Was it's the fourth
40:12
quarter there on the three yard
40:14
line. I know Miles
40:17
was a hockey player, and so this
40:19
is all driving him crazy. Yeah, Well from
40:21
someone who would regularly score wrist shots
40:24
from the brew line. Yeah, that's how nasty
40:26
my wrist shot game was. Real
40:29
quick. We should talk about Sri Lanka.
40:31
Information keeps coming out after those
40:34
horrifying terror attacks. It now seems like
40:37
this was specifically a
40:39
response to the christ Church
40:42
terror attacks. Uh that's what security
40:44
officials from inside Sri Lanka
40:47
is saying. It's a it's a big fucking
40:49
mess. But they also
40:52
had to close down social media
40:54
and because of just
40:57
all the anti Islamic sentiment
40:59
that's going to be that they
41:01
knew was going to be coming in the immediate
41:04
aftermath and probably still will be.
41:06
I mean, there was anti Islamic sentiment
41:09
when Notre Dame had a fire,
41:11
because people wanted to be like, yeah, it's probably
41:13
Isis. That's gotta be Arson, It's it's
41:16
gotta be Isis. Uh So, I
41:18
mean this is like wish fulfillment
41:20
to a certain type of like right wing
41:23
European nationalist right
41:26
and I think a lot of people in the counter
41:28
terrorism sphere of like
41:30
the intelligence communities around the world were bracing
41:33
for some kind of response when
41:35
you have someone terrorizing mosques
41:37
and killing people as they worshiped that they're
41:40
saying, Okay, well we've
41:42
seen, we know how this plays out. These things
41:44
tend to be eye for an eye kind of thing. And
41:47
yeah, like three people,
41:49
right over, three people lost their lives, including
41:52
like the owner of Asos. Yeah, the richest
41:54
student Denmark. Him and his wife
41:56
have four kids and they lost three of them in
41:58
the attacks. Fucking just
42:01
the worst thing I've ever heard. So
42:04
yeah, I mean it's a it's a horrifying
42:06
story, but it is something that is going
42:08
to be I think we're going to be dealing
42:10
with probably for a long time.
42:13
I like the idea of shutting
42:15
down social media, and I want
42:18
to see how that plays out,
42:21
because I feel like it's a good call
42:23
kind of to bring people more into their community
42:26
and find that kind of support and like
42:29
close knittedness that you need during
42:31
like destructive and tragedy times.
42:34
Hopefully it like I
42:37
think it needs to be, like it should be a
42:40
mandatory thing in the aftermath of an
42:42
event like this, because like there's
42:44
just so much toxic, dangerous ship
42:47
that happens. And I mean, the fact that we
42:50
feel that way, and I don't know if it will
42:52
effectively prevent that sort of thing, but
42:54
the fact that we feel like you
42:56
have to shut down social media just points
42:59
out like how much
43:02
social media, these like gigantic
43:04
multibillion dollar companies have just
43:07
completely just shipped on
43:09
the social construct of the social
43:11
contract of like you know, don't
43:13
do harm to the society that you're
43:15
making money off of. They just like, don't give a funk.
43:18
Yeah. Well in Sri Lanka though too. I think last year
43:20
the year before, they were having a lot of Facebook
43:23
based problems because a lot
43:25
of fake news was spreading that was leading
43:27
to violence against Muslim people there and
43:30
Facebook they were like, people were begging Facebook
43:33
to do something about it, like yo, because a lot of
43:35
people, Facebook is their portal to the Internet,
43:38
especially in that country. So you know,
43:40
despite people asking Facebook
43:43
to monitor this, like yo, you're you're in action
43:45
is actually causing a lot of problems in this
43:47
country. I think that was another reason that led
43:49
to this, because they're like this time and again
43:52
the social media thing has been the source of
43:54
a lot of conflict and yeah, for like
43:57
reasons to whether people can just sort of find
44:00
support with each other, and also just to keep
44:02
like you're saying, just the nasty
44:05
ship from spreading and exacerbating
44:07
the problem. Um, there's a good call. But also
44:09
I think in indictment on social media,
44:12
when the government is like, oh, what's the person
44:15
to do, Yo, shut that ship down,
44:17
because we don't want people to get you
44:19
know, further energized in the wrong direction
44:21
or something. All
44:24
right, we're gonna take another quick break. We'll be right back,
44:36
and we're back. Uh and uh
44:40
quick men Ghazi update. Uh.
44:42
Luke Walton from who
44:44
he was last year the coach of the Los
44:46
Angeles Lakers and was just tired as the coach
44:49
of the Sacramento Kings, is
44:51
being sued for sexual assault
44:53
on a woman who
44:56
is a reporter. Reported on
44:58
the Lakers. Luke
45:00
Walton was supposedly going to write
45:03
a forward to a book that she was releasing.
45:06
He met her at a hotel astrup
45:08
to his room too. I don't know,
45:11
see a book or something. The specific
45:13
details of like the things he
45:15
said, it just like paints such a clear picture
45:17
of like an entitled douche bag who's
45:19
like just right, thinks he's well.
45:21
Also that your response after assaulting
45:24
somebody is being flipp in, just
45:26
saying like nice to see you. Yes. She
45:29
reported that since the incident, when he
45:32
saw her, he would hug and kiss
45:34
her and say stuff like you're killing
45:36
me with that dress. So yeah, just
45:38
is he being So it's not a police
45:41
matter, it's like a civil lawsuit. I think it's a civil
45:43
lawsuit. I'm sure why maybe
45:46
it's a statute of limitations thing. I'm
45:48
not sure, but yeah, if
45:51
if true, which I tend to think
45:53
it is, what a disaster of a human
45:56
being. Well, I just appreciate you for telling
45:58
me who Luke Walton was. He's
46:01
one of the shittiest coaches of the Lakers
46:03
and one of the shittiest players who got a contract.
46:05
You should have never got human being too.
46:08
Yeah around, Well,
46:11
Wisconsin, guys, let's get back.
46:13
Let's get to some brass tacks here. Brass
46:16
tacks. Important important news.
46:18
Wisconsin. Uh, it
46:20
has been announced as the number one state for
46:23
frozen pizza consumption. That
46:25
is a sick title to have. That
46:28
is awesome. I thought they had just legalized
46:30
weed or something, but it turns out this was
46:32
like just some insider information that was being shared.
46:35
They need to put that on their license plates
46:37
on all of the signs when you're entering
46:39
Wisconsin. Welcome to everybody.
46:43
Everybody's blood type is di jorn um.
46:46
Apparently there are people, like a lot
46:48
of people are interested. It's like, what is it about Wisconsin?
46:50
What the funk is going on? Like you think that would be like
46:53
I thought would be a state where people are smoking
46:55
wild weed all the time and just eating frozen
46:57
pizza. But someone that was asked for a comment
47:00
that the state's appetite for frozen pizza
47:03
lies in its populations ties
47:05
to Norwegian immigrants, so
47:08
noting that Norway is the only country that eats
47:10
more frozen pizza per person than America.
47:14
And I'm like, wait what and this this is kind
47:16
of a trend throughout the rest of the Midwest
47:18
also, which they say each
47:20
about twice the rate of frozen pizza as the rest of
47:22
the country. But also Wisconsin
47:25
is the home to Di Jorno and Tombstone
47:27
and Jack's, So there's that's
47:30
I think there's a thing they
47:32
love cheese there. Yeah, I mean
47:36
is the pizza in restaurants. They're
47:38
good. I feel like this is the only thing that they
47:41
have, like Milwaukee style pep I mean, they have
47:43
their own style of pizza. I don't know that's where z
47:45
gang. Look, if you're Wisconsin pizzahead,
47:48
what what's good? What am I supposed to tell
47:50
people what they should be getting instead of that? But
47:52
I mean it's also like when
47:55
I lived in Missouri for a
47:57
couple of years, I definitely saw my consumption
48:00
and a frozen pizza go up just because it's
48:02
like money saving, easy
48:04
to do at home. You don't go out
48:07
as much, at least when I was living
48:09
there, I didn't go out as much. So it's just like,
48:11
yeah, this will do. I like that
48:14
Norway has this insatiable appetite
48:16
for frozen pizza. That's interesting to me. I
48:18
love that. I wonder if it's because
48:21
of the cold and
48:23
just not wanting to open the door when a delivery
48:26
person comes, or you
48:28
could just store your frozen pieces outside your door.
48:31
You have to put him in your freezer. You're just
48:33
like, hey, you'll go out back and grab a pizza
48:35
off the pile, staws it in
48:37
the oven. Do you guys funk with
48:40
any frozen pizza in particular? Mm,
48:43
the grosser the better. Yeah, you
48:45
know, like when it's trying to be like a respectable
48:48
pizza, I'm like, you know how to do all that? Like, we know
48:50
what this is. It's a frozen pizza. My
48:52
boyfriend makes fun of me because I dress
48:54
it up and he's like, why
48:56
do you got to fix it? Like why wait?
48:59
So what do you how do I'll pack it up. I'll put
49:01
like Italian seasoning on it, or
49:03
like slice garlic. If
49:07
we have any meat in the house, I'll throw it on extra
49:09
cheese. And is it uh,
49:12
I'm sure it actually doesn't prove it or does it feel
49:15
like you're it cooks the same? I mean yeah,
49:17
but if you I don't know, it
49:19
makes me feel better about eating it. I
49:22
ain't no regular as one. I put
49:24
one basil leaf on here. There
49:29
was like there was a type that I used to always
49:31
eat that was like two dollars per pizza
49:33
and I can't remember what it was.
49:36
I had like allian
49:38
Grandma on it, and it was like, oh,
49:41
Mama, yeah, Mama Celeste, Mama
49:43
Celeste. Right, yeah, that
49:45
ship was never leave a cardboard on,
49:49
uh, like in the oven
49:51
and yeah, oh hell, I mean I probably
49:53
did that once and then it's I
49:56
was smoking up my house and I was going
49:58
on and I quickly sucked that off. It's
50:00
not Mama Celeste unfortunately, or just Celeste,
50:03
and I'm not gonna yeah, it's not Celeste either.
50:05
What is it? Because I just I can't find it. I'll
50:08
update It was like it
50:11
might be it might be,
50:13
but it had real crispy crust and
50:16
a lot of them do yeah, especially
50:18
when you just or was yeah,
50:21
Red Baron, I think they would have that at my school
50:23
cafeteria in high school. But anyway, get
50:25
your celeste on Okay, and DJ Danield
50:28
is pointing furiously at his notepad that
50:30
says, Tony's maybe
50:33
that's it. Yeah, see that one. That's
50:36
kind of that's that's that's the kind of garbage
50:38
I'm talking about when I look at it. Yeah, you don't
50:40
want it to really look like pizza. It's like I just want a round
50:43
disc of cheese and bread. Yeah, it's
50:45
like cafeteria like school cafeteria
50:47
level pizza is what you're
50:49
kind of working with. H And let us know,
50:52
is that getting what the best frozen pizza is if
50:54
it is in fact a jordanal I
50:56
prefer bubbally? Oh
50:59
no, I'd remember the eighties they would always
51:01
say that commercial and I always wanted
51:03
to get the like the fully baked pizza like
51:05
dough that they would have at the store, and my
51:08
mom never obliged. To
51:10
this day, I've not had it. I grew
51:12
up in an Italian restaurant, so yeah,
51:15
my mom I would make a lot of pizzas. Yeah
51:19
that oh so you that
51:21
maybe maybe that's a of
51:24
course, yeah, because to you. It feels like fucking
51:26
blasphemy to just have you like you, We gotta
51:28
put something on here. It feels like home. Yeah.
51:31
Was the name of the restaurant, Sorrento? And
51:34
is this in Texas? Okay? Sorrento.
51:37
I bet some listeners know about the pizza. Hey,
51:40
have you ever had rows homemade
51:43
marinara sauce? All?
51:46
I call it raos, but nah,
51:49
ras is probably right. You haven't had it. It's
51:51
more expensive, but it's fucking good man. The
51:54
restaurant is very good, my favorite,
51:57
my favorite. Like they they solved
51:59
pasta saw as far as all concerned.
52:01
Did you know bon Jovie has a pasta sauce? Yeah,
52:05
that's insane to me. Have you had it? No?
52:07
Have you? It is? No? It
52:11
is darkshit slippe.
52:15
No, it's gross. It's just gross
52:17
that he has one. Joan Bongovi.
52:20
Um, that was offensive and
52:22
I apologized listeners. Um,
52:26
alright, guys, let's talk about Playboy Club, where
52:29
I grew up inside a Playboy club
52:31
apparently not doing so
52:34
hot. They're not doing well. Um, you
52:36
know, as someone who used to work at play Yeah,
52:39
just like Jamie Loftus, things
52:42
aren't going well there and Hugh
52:44
Hefner's son, I believe is a driving force
52:47
behind bringing nudity back to the magazine
52:50
and also going like just pedal
52:52
to the metal with opening up this Playboy
52:54
club, which you know, if you recall,
52:57
we had an opportunity here from Gloria Steinham silly
53:00
and she famously went
53:03
into worked at a Playboy club undercover
53:05
to write about it, and when she heard that it
53:07
opened, she's like, how is this even opening
53:09
now? Right? Because most people are like, who
53:12
is this for? And apparently
53:14
one of the biggest problems it seems to be the
53:16
service, because page six they're getting very
53:18
messy and they have a sort of it's like, yo, it's
53:20
hell in there, apparently, um but essentially
53:23
the managers are just, they say, are more worried
53:25
about how the prospective hires looked
53:27
and of course sit in fluffy tail than their relevant
53:30
experience in the service industry. H service
53:32
has been so bad that new management had to be brought
53:35
in and they fired half of the bunny staff.
53:37
Now the club has hired real waiters and called
53:39
the bunnies, although it has kept some of the flappy
53:41
eared friends on with adjusted job descriptions
53:44
and slashed paychecks, So now they're
53:46
basically just having the bunnies just take
53:49
the drinks from the bar to the
53:51
tables rather than like actually doing any of the
53:53
waiting and things like that, and they've like slashed
53:55
their pay from forty dollars an hour to twenty five
53:57
dollars an hour. The things just kind of in free
54:00
fault. And when you look at the yelp reviews, I was
54:02
like, what's the yelp got to say? It's a mix
54:04
between like people who are like Wall
54:06
Street bros, who are like, Oh, it's fucking sick,
54:09
dude, it's the tightest fucking place. I feel
54:11
like a fucking king. Then there are people who
54:13
are like the food is ship. Then
54:15
there are other people saying it's not toxic
54:18
enough for them. They're like, dude, they're not even
54:20
hot in there. One star for that. People
54:22
are like one star because it's so aggressively
54:24
like out of touch. So you know, it's
54:26
being pulled in many directions. But there's also a lot of
54:28
five star reviews that I suspect are maybe
54:31
friends of the people who rent it, because they're
54:33
like the vague ones, like you know, the Homie five star
54:35
review were like, oh great, time
54:38
five stars. No detail really loved
54:40
it. Awesome place. Food is sick. I
54:43
mean I got sick from the food, that's
54:45
right. So I've never been to
54:47
one of these. I actually didn't know they existed
54:50
prior to this story. It
54:52
sounds like it's like a mix between a strip
54:55
club and a theme restaurant,
54:57
like a Jacqueline Hide. Yeah, it's
54:59
like a it's like a Hooters if
55:02
it went to college or something.
55:05
Like. It's like this weird fake air of
55:07
sophistication, but it's still the same
55:09
oargle the server staff type
55:12
vibe, but like also made
55:14
you know, that's trying to create that that playboy
55:17
ship that they're chasing, like the dude who
55:19
walks in and it's like, you know, fond
55:22
over by beautiful women and blah
55:24
blah blah. So I think actually
55:27
they should lean into the strip club model
55:29
a little bit more and have
55:32
the bunnies be the entertainment.
55:34
They don't have to dance or anything, but they can
55:36
talk to the patrons and like then
55:39
have real good servers. Yeah,
55:42
they just don't know. That's the problem with this
55:44
company is like they just don't know. They
55:46
had a club in l A that was on the Sunset
55:49
Strip that was like this little tiny bar and
55:51
it was just like another business that wasn't
55:53
ran well where you know the thing
55:56
that like the battle crying that company
55:58
is that like the Playboy Bunnies. I
56:00
think the second or first most recognized
56:02
logo on Earth, like without context,
56:05
people know what it is, and that behind
56:08
the Swoosh I think, or maybe
56:10
Adidas, but like those are like people
56:13
just no matter where continent, like internationally,
56:16
know that that logo and they're
56:18
just sort of coasting off the strength of that thing and
56:20
without realizing, like it's a dying brand
56:23
that's left over from a bygone era and
56:25
they've not really been able to figure out how to evolve
56:28
with the time. So I think they've just resorted to
56:30
their old ways and just hope like, well, we'll just
56:32
catch the people who still think this is like a thing
56:34
they want. Yeah, it's a little bit too
56:36
late for sure, but I don't know,
56:39
I feel like they can make it work. Yeah,
56:41
right, if you're gonna if they did it right, if
56:43
you're gonna be like a brand that's about objectifying
56:45
women, they're half asking it and
56:48
that's why people are like confused. If
56:50
you're just gonna be a disgusting brand that's gonna just like
56:53
full on just be like, yeah, come in, like you can just
56:55
talk wild to these bunnies and do whatever
56:57
the fun you like. Just be some gross too,
57:00
would it is what it is? Yeah,
57:02
but I think trying to thread the needle of being like it's
57:05
fine dining plus like men
57:07
in course it's and like it's just like
57:09
people are like, I don't know what to make sense of this place. Yeah,
57:11
I mean Hooters for sophisticated
57:14
people seems to be like by
57:17
definition like an error like does
57:19
not compute. Those two things don't really
57:21
overlap in a way that oh, sophisticated
57:24
people can't like the sight of a beautiful woman
57:26
Jack. Oh god, I
57:28
remember, like when you were talking about
57:31
the Playboy Club. I thought we were talking
57:33
about the two thousand and eleven TV
57:35
show where they were trying to make the
57:38
Playboy Club. I think it was basically Madmen
57:41
came out, they saw that that was a hit, and they
57:44
were like, Playboy was like, how do we get in on
57:46
this? So they had a show, had a show.
57:49
Uh, let's see here. First episode
57:51
date September nineteen, two
57:53
thousand eleven. Final episode date
57:55
October three, two thousand eleven, their
57:58
three episodes. Wha what network
58:01
was it on NBC? It was like a big,
58:03
big ben Yeah, a lot of dudes
58:06
walking around in suits being like the Playboy
58:08
Club is gonna change everything. But
58:11
it had the Bunny in the Bunny logo
58:14
in the title, so it was like an official
58:16
Playboy joint where they were like, our
58:18
brand is gonna explode,
58:20
yeah, because the people who owned it up until recently,
58:22
we're just like a licensing company, right who there
58:25
They were getting their money out of owning Playboy
58:27
by just slapping the logo on anything and selling
58:30
it right um. And then a dude
58:33
who has no experience
58:35
running restaurants or clubs was like, I'm
58:37
gonna take this over, yeah,
58:39
and has no experience doing anything that being
58:41
you have ner Son working in that, that
58:44
place is a time war you. I couldn't
58:46
believe this ship. I would hear of working in there, even
58:49
from the playmates. Man, some of those players has some racist
58:51
ass fucking takes on Jesus, because
58:54
I was there, like in the midst of the
58:56
election heating up for
58:59
the guys sixteen, like going
59:01
into and like
59:04
there were just times not even having
59:06
to do with the election itself. But like
59:09
you know, when I was doing video there, we
59:12
would be like make content like
59:14
let's let's do a profione this playmate or
59:16
whatever, and asking about like people they would
59:18
date regularly. I would have to cut
59:20
sh it on, like that was that was racist.
59:23
They're like, um, no thugs, Like I don't
59:25
like thugs, Like I'm not about thug life,
59:27
or like saying like then you're like, oh, you're
59:30
cuddling this ship out. Um, but
59:32
yeah, look shout out to y'all. Got
59:35
some healthcare from y'all. Good
59:38
on, good on you, Good on you. Then
59:40
yeah, and Kanye had Sunday
59:43
service on Easter. It
59:45
was I thought it was cool.
59:48
The part that I watched of it for some
59:50
reason, they shot it through a fish is lends because
59:53
that's how myopic is eyesight is in
59:56
his version for the Future. It was like, would
59:58
you want to watch this live? Now?
1:00:00
Would you want to watch this live if
1:00:02
you had to detach Retina and
1:00:04
glacoma and you were a fish? Um?
1:00:08
But the music was good and I
1:00:11
think they were selling crew neck sweatshirts
1:00:13
for like three dollars, so
1:00:16
you know, spiritual, spiritual. You know, that's
1:00:19
because he's he's still preaching that uses ship, you
1:00:21
know what I mean, because he's he's disrupting the whole
1:00:23
business and he's selling fucking merchandise for two dollars
1:00:26
don't really even wrapped, like more than a couple of verses.
1:00:28
But it was just like a cool band
1:00:31
playing live gospel and Kanye tracks
1:00:33
with the gospel choir. Yeah, but I mean
1:00:35
doesn't like hit what an ego? Huh?
1:00:39
I'm I'm right. I'm
1:00:41
re contextualizing a church service. So
1:00:43
the choir is singing my songs and
1:00:46
I'll just gonna hop around, uh
1:00:49
and do all that. It's very surreal because
1:00:51
there was like a small group in the middle of
1:00:53
this giant field and then the crowd was
1:00:55
like held back from them. It was it
1:00:57
was weird. Man, wake me up
1:01:00
when he wakes up? Right,
1:01:02
how about that. I'll take a free
1:01:04
sweatshirt if anyone has, Yeah
1:01:07
for a grant. Anybody's got a
1:01:09
free sweat
1:01:12
sweatshirt? Wait, Miles, didn't you know he
1:01:14
has arisen the Yeah?
1:01:18
Oh Ship, Yeah, that's what that's what Easter
1:01:21
is about. Sometimes I lose track of Easter.
1:01:23
That's why Friday, Yeah
1:01:26
for good Friday, and then good Friday.
1:01:29
Maybe I'm did I get that wrong? I
1:01:32
did go to church. Yeah, it
1:01:34
was the church of YouTube livestream. Okay,
1:01:38

So let's take it to a Japanese psychedelic
1:04:19
rock band that I really like called Kagaku
1:04:22
moyole uh, which means
1:04:24
geometric patterns. But they are I saw
1:04:26
them years ago uh and like
1:04:28
people like these do are trippy, and they play
1:04:30
one of the trippiest psych sets I had ever heard
1:04:33
or witnessed here in l a yeah, um
1:04:36
out in the desert actually at like this
1:04:38
thing called Desert Days, and they've
1:04:40

more so. This is a song by them called Nazzo Nazzo
1:04:47
And you know, if you're if you like psychedelic
1:04:50
