0:08

0:10

together into one NonStop

0:13

infotainment laugh

0:16

stravaganza. Uh

0:18

yeah, So, without further ado,

0:21

here is the Weekly Zeitgeist.

0:25

Miles. Yeah, We're thrilled

0:27

to be joined in our third seat by

0:29

a very funny comedian improviser,

0:32

a skateboarder whose comedy

0:34

special Spiritually Filthy is

0:37

hilarious a must for you to

0:39

check out. Please welcome back to the show.

0:41

It's mort Burn, Mortal.

0:43

Co

0:52

mort l Yeah, yeah,

0:55

hell Comberg.

0:58

I'm sorry, who do you fight? Who did you fight with?

1:00

People might not know we're having conversations about Mortal Kombat

1:02

too, But.

1:02

Who are you playing Mortal Kombat Arcade last

1:04

night? And I really like Johnny Cage

1:06

because I think he's the funniest because he

1:09

he murders you and then throws his head

1:11

shot at you, which

1:13

is legitimately hilarious

1:15

move. He's a Hollywood sociopath. I really like he's

1:18

like, he's the most oiled up and greasiest.

1:21

Oh yeah, dude, he's like, yeah, he's just

1:23

a super funny guy to play with.

1:25

I think I wonder have you seen like those

1:27

videos, like the behind the scenes of like the MOCAP

1:29

sessions for the first game. Oh

1:33

yeah, they're on YouTube, like Frenny Frenny MK

1:35

heads out there. Man, It's it's just worth seeing,

1:37

like how they like they brought these actors

1:39

in to do all this stuff, and now I'm just thinking, like, I wonder

1:41

what that Johnny Cage actor was like actually

1:44

when they were doing the like I need more body,

1:46

oil man.

1:48

That's not going to show up on the Yeah.

1:53

Yeah, he's also like.

1:54

A like a literature professor or something

1:56

like. He's like a great academic literature

2:00

happens to be able to do the splits and punch or whatever.

2:02

Right, he wants to talk

2:04

about Yates.

2:05

So that was that was the move, right,

2:07

he was split and punch and that was

2:09

it.

2:10

No, he's got a shadow kick, dude, don't

2:12

get me sorry, he's got the shadow elbow.

2:14

He throws these weird green balls.

2:17

Like everybody else they throw fire and stuff, which

2:19

kind of makes sense, but he throws these like green

2:21

orbs. They never explained if he's like part

2:24

which I don't know why. I don't know why.

2:26

Green balls, Right, it's

2:28

a Hollywood thing, probably scientology, that's

2:31

what.

2:31

It's an al Ron Hubbard reference. Yeah, it's actually

2:33

yeah, yeah, that's what level is that

2:35

of feet and removal.

2:38

He was inspired

2:40

by Jean Claude van Dam's character in Blood

2:42

Sport.

2:43

Yep, you can feel it, you can feel

2:46

Yeah, that's right because remember he's

2:48

on the he's doing the splits on those folding

2:50

chairs. Yeah,

2:53

right, very pivotal

2:55

scene in my young adulthood.

2:57

Yeah, that's

2:59

that's how you ended up where you are today,

3:01

exactly current.

3:02

You can't see me listeners, but I'm currently doing

3:04

the splits in between.

3:05

Doing the slits on two folding chairs. That's how

3:08

you record. That's how you're most comfortable.

3:10

Yeah, I feel at home there.

3:13

Yeah.

3:14

What is something from your search

3:17

history?

3:18

Well I haven't. I haven't

3:20

had a lot of interesting searches, but I

3:22

did.

3:23

Or something screenshoted on your phone?

3:27

I mean, damn, you don't let me finish my

3:30

man, I hate so much too today.

3:32

No, you don't hate me. You don't hate me. Don't

3:35

worry about that. Okay, that's projection. You're

3:37

just your cup of

3:39

hate for me is so full that

3:41

it's still such.

3:43

A bad mood.

3:44

Your hate cup.

3:46

The Drake and Drake situation

3:49

was a situationship. Yeah, it's

3:51

a situation ship. I was so. I

3:54

was so curious because I've hated Drake a very

3:56

long time and I've been pretty vocal

3:58

anti Drake for very long time. I do it on stage.

4:00

I spent the whole last year shitting on Ralph

4:02

Barboso's crowd because they're like, they're young

4:05

men, so they all love Drake and that was like so

4:07

fun. I hope that they've been thinking about me this week.

4:09

But anyhow, I was like, when did I start hitting

4:11

them? And I realized it was and

4:13

that's what I googled the that

4:16

Bay inspired song, the motto. I

4:18

can remember the name of it, but I was like Bay inspire

4:20

Drake song and I was

4:22

like, I just to confirm, I was like, there is

4:24

no Bay producer, there was no Bay rapper

4:26

on it, and I remember that pissing me the

4:29

fuck off. Likely

4:34

even this was I think the third.

4:35

Album Damn You you do go way back

4:38

with the I do.

4:38

Because when that happened as much as and I will

4:41

say, I did enjoy the song because it

4:43

is it was a banger. I'm not gonna and

4:45

that was the thing. It was still early, so I was like, I

4:48

mean, this song is good, and it took me a minute to be like,

4:50

wait a minute, there's a Bay feature

4:52

on this and there, and then I looked it up and I was like, and there's

4:54

no big producer on this. I was like, this is fucking whack.

4:57

And that's when I was like, this guy's a fucking leech

4:59

because a lot because I remember my brother being

5:01

like what He's

5:03

like, well, plenty of people, you know, do

5:05

Bay Area music, and I was like, yeah, but

5:07

they always have a Bay Area rapper featured

5:10

on the song, always when they dabble

5:12

with the first sound yeah, and anyway, so

5:15

I was like, oh, yeah, it's been since twenty eleven

5:17

since I've been like side eyeing that motherfucker.

5:20

And I'm just I'm very proud of that. And that

5:22

was one of my last interesting Google searches.

5:24

Yeah, because that in that song because he's he says

5:27

rest in peace, mag Dre, I'm gonna do it for the Bay.

5:30

Yeah, You're like, oh, and I feel like the

5:32

video, what wasn't the video also shot in the

5:34

Bay too. I don't remember the video, Yeah,

5:37

I don't anyway, like I know what you mean.

5:38

It is.

5:39

It's very raises an eyebrow raises

5:41

it.

5:42

Yeah, and it was my first timer. I was like hummm,

5:45

because I mean, especially because the Bay is so predictive

5:48

that I was like, how did he get away with this? But

5:50

it was a slapper and it was early in his career, and I

5:52

was like, oh, maybe he just kind of like made a bad choice,

5:55

but nah, it was intentional. He's ripped

5:57

off everybody since then.

5:58

So yeah, yeah,

6:01

yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

6:03

We'll see.

6:03

We'll see where he shows his face or he's just gonna

6:05

post like just vacation videos

6:08

for the next year or something.

6:09

I can't wait to find out what happens. I hate him so

6:12

much. I've been waiting for this week for so long.

6:14

There's a man.

6:14

There's even people who are like, you know, there could

6:16

there be like legal consequences? Could they sue

6:18

each other for what's happening? And then like you know,

6:21

the fans are like, I'm sure, like those

6:23

songs were vetted by lawyers, Like I

6:25

don't I don't think. I don't think so I don't

6:27

know.

6:27

No, he must have very big ass

6:30

law firm, like working around the clock.

6:32

Kendrick if they were vetting that ship, because

6:34

even those were coming out fast.

6:36

Well also, and if he has evidence, you're like,

6:38

where are the police?

6:39

Then? Yeah?

6:40

I mean, I mean that's the thing though,

6:43

it's like Drake, what

6:45

suing? Like how much of a buster? Does

6:47

that make him look like he can't do that? Like

6:49

that would really ruin any kind

6:52

of cool rep that he would, even that

6:54

he has little that he has. Like that's why

6:56

it's so interesting when when when you when

6:58

you say that, because it's like, I mean, rappers,

7:00

that's like, you know, code of conduct. It's

7:03

like, you don't sue each other for a ship it's a

7:05

live then it's a lie. Why would you sue? Like, oh, it's why

7:07

I don't you know. But if it's true and

7:09

you have no proof, that motherfucker

7:11

and Dre Hellett, that motherfucker

7:14

has been having women sign n das

7:16

to go into his parties forever. I

7:18

had this friend who was a stripper, and I remember her telling

7:20

me and I was like what, And

7:23

I was like, Yeah, that's so fucking weird that

7:26

you make people sign, especially women,

7:28

sign n d as before you walk

7:30

into your house party. That's fucking weird.

7:32

Yeah, Like if I do that.

7:34

It would just be like, please don't tell anybody how messy

7:36

my fucking apartment.

7:37

Is, right, Yeah,

7:41

Like imagine that because they would lock the

7:44

phones there. He must be the

7:46

original investor in Yonder bags. They

7:48

would make these girls lock their phones and sign.

7:50

NDAs like show

7:53

or something.

7:53

Shit.

7:53

Yeah,

7:56

that's weird.

7:59

Yeah. So there's a lot of stuff about that. There's

8:01

the Millie Bobby Brown interview that just like

8:03

resurfaced this.

8:04

There's a few interviews from her. She's like, yeah,

8:06

he texts me and you know.

8:09

So much, answers questions

8:11

for me about boys. And they were like,

8:14

what do you mean, and she was like,

8:16

oh, that's gonna stay in. The text is like no

8:19

you yeah, well, like get your parents over

8:21

here.

8:22

I also just love the innocence of it

8:24

because she genuinely thinks there's nothing wrong with it. It's

8:26

like, yeah, of course she doesn't know, because she's a

8:28

literal child. That's what rumors

8:30

do. They trick you into thinking that what is

8:32

happening is totally normal.

8:34

Dark side of the beef, dark side of the beef,

8:37

dark side of the beef. Andrew,

8:41

what is something you think is underrated? And

8:43

this again, I've just had COVID.

8:46

This is on me obviously, because I know people love

8:48

this, but I just I was just

8:50

taking long ass walks because I was like, I'm

8:52

want to get some kind of exercise in it. Yeah,

8:55

I guess part of it is, Yeah,

8:57

unbelievably long walks.

8:59

I guess.

9:00

Unbelieve we're talking like a fucking sojourn

9:02

across the the state.

9:04

I mean, I feel like

9:06

I could do it now, but no, I do

9:08

mean I mean two laps around Echo Park.

9:12

Which is unt long for me. So

9:14

we were talking about, like, yeah,

9:16

that's what he means by unbelievably long.

9:19

People start following him around because

9:22

they can't believe he's still doing it.

9:24

Wow, this guy did three laps around Eco

9:26

Park lakelievably.

9:28

There's the legend grows.

9:31

Never able to figure out the

9:33

exact tweet for this, but it's

9:36

it's the time of year where the baby geese

9:38

are out and and so I was

9:40

trying to figure out some Goslings

9:44

Ryan Gosling fall guy thing.

9:46

But there's my dog almost got in a fight with

9:48

multiple mother geese.

9:51

Geese. Man, that's witches.

9:54

Like they're not nice there.

9:56

They seem angry and territorial

9:59

and their kids are cute.

10:02

Yeah, they're there.

10:03

I saw because of my again unfathomably

10:06

long walks. I've seen multiple

10:09

families of like

10:11

baby geese jumping into the goslings.

10:14

I saw goslin jump into the pool

10:16

or into the lake, and it's so cute,

10:19

warm your heart, so cute every time.

10:21

Is that your favorite?

10:22

Would you say, as a man, andrew t, what's

10:24

your favorite bird?

10:25

Damn damn, damn damn. Yeah,

10:28

this just needs to be part of our questions, what's

10:30

your favorite bird?

10:31

As

10:35

yeah, tik tok, motherfucker.

10:37

I would say.

10:38

I'll say, I think maybe just a regular

10:40

duck. Goose is like too

10:42

much. I'm not like, yeah

10:45

like that.

10:46

Okay, they're really very elegant

10:48

and graceful, the goose,

10:51

the like by design, like their their

10:53

neck design is just too Hey, we're getting

10:55

the light. We're getting the light.

10:56

We're getting the light from justice.

10:57

Folks, We're getting the light movement.

11:00

This is all

11:03

right? Hey, what bring up?

11:05

Bring it up with an overrated Nicholas please?

11:07

Okay, well, the overrated I guess I was

11:10

just thinking about, you know, in terms of dichotomies,

11:13

there's another novel by Geny of Fathers

11:16

and sons, and it's

11:18

about this kind of like son

11:21

that comes back to the family estate with

11:24

with this kind of dosty evskin radical

11:26

figure in toe and in a way

11:28

he's kind of a model for some of these dostyevskin

11:31

nihilist characters. And

11:33

I think he's called Yevgeny, but not

11:35

one hundred per central because it was a long

11:37

time ago that I read it, and I just I don't

11:39

know, I didn't I found I found the characters

11:42

in that book kind of annoying in

11:44

a way, and they

11:46

just kind of sort of prattled

11:49

on anyway. Spring Torrent is very good, first

11:51

lave, very good.

11:53

Yeah, Sons for

11:55

the Yeah, yeah, watching

11:58

anything on Netflix? Man, you

12:02

know what you ever seen

12:04

that? I Toko Advice?

12:06

Okay? Oh yeah on HBO.

12:08

I think it's yeah, sorry yeah,

12:11

no, no, no, I mean it's I've

12:13

only caught the first couple episodes of the

12:15

second season. I read the book when it came out, and I was really

12:18

the book was really eye opening because

12:20

as someone who's half Japanese, just like the

12:22

idea of an American person because

12:24

it's so it's like my mom's

12:26

a journalist and it was written in Japan and stuff

12:29

like that. It's it's such a hard

12:31

life and it's so rigid the way,

12:33

like the tests you have to take to even get in

12:35

there. Like the idea of a Western ner being like yeah,

12:37

I'm gonna learn Japanese to that level like

12:39

blows my mind. But yeah,

12:41

at the show to be pretty

12:43

popular.

12:44

Yeah, So that's that's the story of

12:46

Tokyo Vice as a westerner trying to

12:49

figure out life in Tokyo

12:51

on the on the Vice Squad.

12:52

Well, it's him writing about like

12:54

what the Vice Squad is doing, so like you

12:56

learn all these different things about Tokyo through

12:58

his interactions with police, and then with this one

13:00

is sort of centering around this yakuza guy who,

13:03

in the books telling was like having

13:06

like renal issues with his kidneys and

13:08

was going to the United So it's like a kind of a

13:10

huge kind of.

13:13

A or something, right. Yeah, it was yeah,

13:15

Yeah.

13:16

It's a really good book. Yeah, because I read

13:19

it when I was in Japan a couple of years ago, and it was

13:21

it was also very eye opening, and.

13:23

I remember just thinking where are

13:25

the yakus.

13:26

I mean, it's not

13:28

really something that you have experience

13:30

of, but I guess friends

13:32

of mine who work there say

13:35

that it's kind of on the periphery quite a lot of

13:37

the things, especially people.

13:38

Who work in the restaurant industry.

13:40

Yeah, and like nightlife. Yeah, you can, it's

13:43

definitely it's a presence.

13:45

Yeah. All right, let's

13:47

uh, let's take a quick break and we'll

13:50

come back and we will

13:52

get into cobalt mining and

13:54

other forms of mining that kind

13:57

of make a lot of the wonder

13:59

technologies of our modern life possible

14:02

and kind of some dark things that

14:04

are up the supply chain behind

14:06

your phone.

14:07

We'll be right back, and

14:19

we're bad.

14:22

We are back to me.

14:23

I said it not Jack. Guys, if

14:25

you caught.

14:25

That flawless,

14:30

pretty hard to tell the difference, she

14:40

said, known virgin kV baby

14:43

Melley balls Jack Obrien, Melly

14:45

balls Obrien, that's im

14:47

him? Is that

14:49

a child?

14:51

You tell me where you.

14:53

Lot accusations flying around these days?

14:56

Sle what

15:01

what? What?

15:07

What a great song?

15:08

All right, let's check in with the Biden administration,

15:11

who are concerned about

15:14

the incursion into Rafa and

15:16

have paused a shipment of bombs which

15:20

progress.

15:21

Technically unprecedented, technically

15:24

unprecedented, h Like, technically

15:26

this hasn't happened since October seventh,

15:28

when Joe Biden is like whatever y'all need blank

15:30

check, go ahead. It is wild to see,

15:33

like what a shipment of bombs

15:35

constitutes, Like, yeah, Jesus,

15:38

this is this is a shipment

15:41

okay of bombs.

15:43

They're like, you know, thousands your morning

15:45

shipment Okay, yeah,

15:48

yeah, exactly.

15:49

Thousands of bombs. This is eighteen

15:51

hundred two thousand pound bombs

15:54

and seventeen hundred five.

15:56

Hundred pound bombs.

15:57

Jesus Christ, and that's

16:00

supposed to be I guess they're like the

16:02

reasoning there being is like these are

16:04

just too big for dense urban areas

16:07

that we're really just worried about what they could

16:09

do. I mean, we weren't worried up until now, but now

16:11

we're looking at the polling and we're a little bit worried

16:14

about that. And Lloyd Austin, the Secretary

16:16

of Defense, confirmed this Wednesday because first it

16:18

was like, apparently this happened last week, and he said, quote,

16:20

We've been very clear from the beginning that Israel

16:22

shouldn't launch a major attack into Raffa

16:25

without accounting for and protecting the civilians

16:27

that are in that battle space. And again, as

16:29

we have assessed the situation. We have paused

16:32

one shipment of high payload munitions.

16:34

We've not made a final determination on

16:36

how to proceed with that shipment,

16:39

meaning okay, so eventually

16:42

you may hand it over.

16:43

Is that? Yeah?

16:44

What can they do?

16:47

So what could they do to not

16:51

to get their shipment of like

16:53

massive bombs? Right exactly?

16:55

It's like, okay, now you can have your bombs to say

16:58

they're not going to use them on RAFA and then.

17:00

Hey, I promise I'm just

17:02

gonna use them.

17:04

Oh my god, what did you guys think we were

17:06

gonna do with them? You guys are crazy? Are

17:08

you serious? Guys are literally crazy? I

17:10

can't show.

17:11

You're tripping, Joe, you're tripping.

17:13

Oh my god, did you hear what Joe said?

17:16

So you know me, come on, you know me. You

17:18

know I wouldn't do that.

17:19

We can't have our cyber truck sized bombs.

17:22

Yeah, right exactly. Yeah, because

17:24

we've has a we has a red line.

17:26

I don't know, I mean like, so this comes as the State Department

17:29

prepares a report that quote examines whether

17:31

Israel's war conduct is credibly incompliance

17:33

with assurances that US supplied

17:35

weapons are not being used in

17:38

contravention of US in international

17:40

humanitarian law.

17:41

And just based on.

17:42

What I've seen red heard, the

17:44

countless protests that are happening around the world,

17:46

the ICJ ruling, it seems

17:48

that it might be a lot of contravention

17:51

going on there. But that's just a hunch.

17:53

I don't know if you need that full on report, but that's

17:55

just a hunch. And you know, we're looking at over

17:57

a million displaced gosins in Rafa, right,

18:00

and that was supposed to be a safe place for people

18:02

to go. But now that Israel has sees the border crossing

18:04

there, things are becoming increasingly

18:06

dire. And meanwhile, representatives of the

18:08

Israeli government are saying that this pause

18:10

and armshipment could affect the ceasefire talks.

18:13

And it's like, okay, Jan Like, it's been

18:15

pretty clear that Netanyahu has no

18:17

intention of stopping this genocide. So Biden

18:19

needs to I mean, I'm like, Biden needs to wake up.

18:22

This dude is fucking.

18:23

Sleep So I mean, exactly,

18:25

he said he's a proud Zionist.

18:26

Yeah, yeah, right, I mean in the sense like it's not

18:29

gonna change or it doesn't. I'm I'm

18:31

sadly so fucking cynical. That's why it makes

18:33

it so difficult to watch, you

18:36

know, the government just play in our faces like

18:38

they give a fuck about the people in Gaza

18:40

in the West Bank. For like every ten fucked

18:42

up headlines about like new mass graves

18:45

being discovered and children being orphaned,

18:48

you get like one of these goofy ass headlines about

18:50

how like Joe Biden privately

18:52

wants the killing to stop, or how

18:55

Biden has a red line that

18:57

could shift US policy. But we're close

18:59

to thirty five thousand deaths

19:01

already and it's fucking devastating

19:03

this that we know of that we exactly

19:06

and it's just yeah,

19:08

all unfold and like have to

19:11

be implicit as Americans while simultaneously

19:14

having yet another reminder

19:16

that like the only people that get

19:18

a wink of humanity in this world are those

19:21

that look white. Yeah, and it's

19:23

just yeah, it's so we shall

19:25

see that if they're if the line is crossed

19:27

or whether or not. But it yeah,

19:30

this is this is one of those headlines that I think they do to

19:32

be like, Okay, we know clearly the

19:34

world the pressure is cranking

19:36

up around the world about what is you

19:38

know, this this likely ground invasion of Rafa

19:41

and yeah, what we're getting to sort of

19:43

pacify us is one shipment

19:45

of bombs paused.

19:48

Like the fact that they're saying it

19:50

could affect ceasefire talks, like they're

19:52

like, we have all the weapons we need, Like you've

19:54

already given us everything we

19:56

need right like there, this isn't strategically

20:00

going to affect us, like stop

20:02

us from doing ship It sounds like I think where

20:04

they're just sort of more they know they're like, I

20:06

mean, you know, for them, their calculus

20:08

is more like we are just going to fucking

20:10

flat and Gaza.

20:11

We don't give a fuck, and we don't give a fuck how that

20:13

destabilizes the regime in the United

20:15

States or whatever. So it's

20:18

like this, it's just this really cruel back and forth.

20:20

But yeah, ally,

20:23

yeah.

20:23

I also feel like they they made

20:25

that announcement to like soothe

20:28

the students protesting. Yeah,

20:30

Like they're that fucking stupid to be like, oh my god,

20:32

they got one shipment paused.

20:34

So I think we stop big bombshipment.

20:37

We can everybody go home, Everybody

20:40

going to your dormitories.

20:42

What the fuck do you guys want?

20:44

What more do you need?

20:45

They're shopping stop one ship.

20:47

But I hear things are pretty frosty between

20:50

Jill and Joe. So yeah,

20:52

that's because because his body has expired.

20:54

That's why she's not his.

20:56

Dick or playing with the balls. What happened that?

20:59

No more did he say that.

21:01

That's he just said, like the key

21:03

to a good marriage is good sex.

21:05

Earlier this year, did he say that.

21:07

He did say something like that, and then everybody vombited.

21:09

See, yeah, he's a

21:12

he's a freak.

21:12

It's like, yeah, he looks like one of those remember

21:14

in Indiana Jones in the Last Crusade

21:17

when like them King Arthur fucking

21:19

mummies come out and ship.

21:21

Yeah, the one that's where he chooses

21:24

unwisely and yeah, yeah fades

21:26

away.

21:27

That's kind of what. That's the kind of vibe

21:29

Joe's give me right now.

21:32

Energy reference he's giving off like sarcophagal

21:36

vibes. Yeah, sarko all

21:39

right. RFK Junior is

21:44

We talked yesterday about how he landed the

21:46

big Kevin Spacey endorsement, But

21:49

now he is getting

21:51

a little more attention because The New York

21:53

Times just reported that back in

21:55

twenty twelve, during a deposition

21:57

for his divorce case. He reviewed

22:00

that in twenty ten, he was experiencing

22:03

memory loss and doctors thought

22:05

he might have a brain tumor, but it turned

22:07

out to be According to Kennedy, this

22:09

is, according to him, the guy who's

22:11

like, I should be president. According

22:14

to that man, the reason

22:16

he was forgetting things is quote a

22:18

worm that got into my brain and ate

22:20

a portion of it and then died. M

22:23

hm, that's what he thinks happened

22:25

to his brain. Doctors don't

22:28

think that happened. Doctors

22:31

are like, that's not a

22:33

thing that's happened outside of a cartoon

22:35

that we're aware of.

22:37

That's like a that's like a fuck boy. Lie

22:39

to get sympathy from like a woman, You're

22:41

like, yeah, but you don't even know, girl, Like I don't remember

22:44

because like in twenty ten of fucking a worm

22:46

win in my brain and ate it and died in

22:48

there.

22:48

That I forgot your birth code.

22:51

Oh my god, you should have told me that.

22:53

I know. But it's like, I do you feel like I didn't want that.

22:55

I didn't want you to define me by that.

22:57

So I don't want to tell you crazy.

23:00

Yeah, you're probably gonna leave me like everybody else does.

23:02

In my life

23:06

everyone else.

23:08

God just kill

23:13

This is so.

23:13

Triggering for me. I've so many fun

23:15

boys. I'm just like, they did say something

23:17

really dumb.

23:18

Ship, You're like, wait, I've actually heard

23:20

this one.

23:21

Hold on, did you say tapeworm made his brain and died?

23:25

Like?

23:25

R what's the name r R

23:29

r f K junior r f kJ f

23:32

j j k f R the degree

23:34

to which this guy knows he has like

23:37

mental problems, like brain

23:39

problems, because this is around the

23:41

time that like he started going real hard

23:43

on the I guess he's been like an anti vaxer

23:45

for a while, but it was like the time that like

23:47

his ambition really picked up, and

23:51

like he's in this deposition saying,

23:53

quote, I have cognitive problems.

23:56

Clearly, I have short term

23:58

memory load and I have longer

24:01

term memory loss that affects

24:04

the other distances of memory are pretty

24:07

strong, though, decides short

24:09

term and longer than short

24:12

term.

24:12

Is that why he plays dumb? Like when he gets gotcha

24:14

by journalists or like, yo, bro, what about all that like

24:17

nine to eleven shit you were saying? Is like I never said

24:19

that because he doesn't

24:21

because a worm ate that part of it.

24:23

Do you think he believed.

24:23

That's what I'm saying, Like, is that what he I'm trying

24:26

to regularize if he legit has like his memories

24:28

is fucked up and he's trying to blame a worm or he's this

24:30

is a story to set up to give himself like plausible

24:32

deniability.

24:33

When it's you talking.

24:35

About people need to accept it. Like when you

24:37

start aging your memory goes, that's very

24:39

normal. You can just say that, yeah,

24:42

right, that's that's nobody cares.

24:44

I mean, look at Biden. He's doing just fine as

24:46

our president.

24:47

I think it helps. I think it because they

24:49

don't have like the part of the brain that is like self

24:52

doubt like that. That's one of the first things

24:54

to go. We're like, well, they're so successful,

24:57

we were all talking about them, therefore

24:59

they must know what they're doing. And it's

25:01

like, no, he's a person who is

25:03

having so much trouble thinking straight

25:06

that he thought of worm like

25:08

eight part of his brain like a fucking cartoon

25:10

apple.

25:11

I will also say he if

25:14

he doesn't win, which you won't,

25:16

but he could definitely pitch a cartoon,

25:19

a conservative cartoon with a little

25:21

worm as his little buddy, right.

25:23

Like brain worms is a thing, right, Isn't

25:26

that a thing that conservatives screaming about

25:28

is like brainworm? Like I feel like Alex

25:30

Jones has talked a lot about that, but.

25:32

Just Jones is a brain worm, right.

25:35

He's definitely I would not be shocked

25:37

if if he were the one person affected

25:40

by brain.

25:41

I always think about Trump being

25:43

like, if you don't get tested,

25:46

we won't the numbers will remain low.

25:48

I always think about that logic that a

25:50

lot of conservatives like attach themselves

25:52

to of like well if we don't do, if we

25:54

don't know or don't do, the thing, like it doesn't exist.

25:56

It's like, man, what the fuck are you talking about?

25:59

And that's what this feels like.

26:00

He's like, I mean, he's actively reclassifying

26:03

deaths throughout the pandemic, just being like,

26:05

well, we don't know that.

26:07

That's like, that's that's wild to think about

26:09

how bad, how bad that shit was

26:11

having him be the president during the pandemic. But

26:14

yeah, yeah, I just think like this is

26:16

something that occurs to me, Like when you read stuff

26:18

about World War Two and like Hitler

26:21

was like really dumb, like

26:23

he was just a person who

26:26

was in like the like

26:28

somebody was going to be that, and

26:30

he just happened to be the person in that

26:33

position at that time. And like this motherfucker

26:36

is has a last name that

26:38

is politically convenient, and so there's

26:41

going to be an entire, like

26:44

industry's worth of people trying to

26:46

exploit his name. And then he

26:48

is just fueled by privilege

26:50

and opportunism. And

26:53

I think his dimness both robs

26:56

him of any like second thinking,

26:59

you know, self out, and it also

27:01

makes him a good engine for like sniffing

27:04

out the crazy ship that's going to appeal

27:06

to like self serious dumb

27:09

people as well, you know like

27:11

that he so he They're like, yeah,

27:13

we got one of our own in there, who thinks

27:16

that? But the COVID

27:18

vaccine is the biggest

27:20

problem. And I like the way he thinks.

27:21

I like the way he thinks because that's how I think, because

27:24

that's how I think exactly.

27:26

God redoomed.

27:28

It's it's not a great it's not

27:30

a great menu that we have to

27:32

choose from in this election.

27:34

I also wonder if the Internet had existed when Hitler

27:37

was alive, Like how quickly would I would

27:39

his downfall have happened?

27:41

Oh yeah, someone would have kendrick him, right,

27:44

you know what I mean, Yes,

27:48

bro, and.

27:49

He let true D day like

27:51

that's the that's ship, just like I never forget,

27:53

like he just he wouldn't wake up before

27:56

noon and like day

27:59

during World War T Like that's.

28:01

They should have just given him a bunch of VCRs

28:03

he could have disassembled when he was tweaking

28:05

all night. Yeah, and they kept him distracted with

28:07

that. It's like, yeah, man, once you open up that TV, see what's

28:09

inside man trying to figure it out?

28:11

Yeah, it goes.

28:12

Lulla by D day. God damn, what

28:15

a weirdo.

28:16

That's what's so wild though too, And like people are being like this

28:18

isn't the tapeworm thing

28:20

is like bullshit, and they're it's not rest

28:23

likely caused by mercury poisoning,

28:26

which Kennedy.

28:27

Into he was sushi. That's what

28:29

I'm saying.

28:29

You got the Jeremy Piven mercury pivot

28:33

because you got you're

28:35

eating too much fucking sushi, too much

28:37

omakase, like.

28:38

How much fucking proof. It's like,

28:40

yeah, bro, sushi, Like do you talking about.

28:42

I know, rice to the White American diet? No

28:44

rice too many?

28:46

Yeah, just sashimi, just

28:48

shimi all day. That's it, and

28:50

it's like the physical form of affluenza,

28:53

you know, like the people can get get off

28:55

from killing someone because they have affluenza

28:58

like their parents raised them to, you

29:00

know, and related from reality. Like

29:02

the the physical version of that is like

29:05

mercury poisoning from too much sushi,

29:08

Like I just can't stop eating this stuff,

29:10

your honor, Yeah, because

29:12

he was.

29:13

I mean I googled RFK sushi

29:15

because I was just curious to see if, like that's his ship.

29:18

But the one headline I didn't find was like he

29:20

was eating like sushi somewhere with

29:22

like Alicia Silverstone, you

29:24

know, they were talking it up anti vax style.

29:28

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

29:31

this.

29:31

Is a depressing episode.

29:34

I mean, they're they're all depressing and.

29:36

Someone I don't think they all are.

29:39

We'll pick something frivil more please

29:41

do.

29:42

But yeah, it's just you

29:44

know what bothers me is that three

29:48

of us all very smart, capable human beings,

29:51

and we would never pursue politics because

29:53

it's so fucking absurd to think like I'm

29:55

going to be in charge of, you know, the community

29:58

of people, and it's like it takes a real

30:00

fucking weirdo and like every time these types of

30:02

stories come out. I'm just like, yeah, man, like that's

30:04

the kind of weirdo you have to be to be a politician.

30:07

And it's like even with AOC, I remember

30:09

being like I'm gonna I'm gonna love her at the beginning because

30:12

I know eventually it's gonna turn. That's just it's

30:14

normal. That's just what happens, and that

30:16

is what's been happening, and it's

30:18

just one of those things who are just like, man, it

30:20

doesn't matter if you do go in with good intentions,

30:23

because I mean, I don't know if anybody goes in with good intentions.

30:26

But I think with those student activists,

30:28

I'm always like hopeful that those students

30:30

that are the protesting now are gonna

30:33

pursue politics because I feel

30:35

like that's the only way that this shit is going to change

30:37

is like literal infiltration of

30:39

like educated, young progressive people.

30:41

Yeah, because if that's the game, you need to be at the to

30:43

have a seat at the table, Like you have to play the game

30:46

differently because all of these people. I was

30:48

talking to somebody who like had

30:50

worked for like like the

30:52

White House like in the seventies, and I was like,

30:55

what, what the fuck is up with like all these people and

30:57

he's like, I'm telling you, they get in there

30:59

and it's the fucking job you've

31:01

ever had. Like they're like, Yo, you

31:03

can't fucking tell nobody about this shit. These

31:05

are secrets, like get you got security,

31:08

like you're moving in like these armored cars and shit

31:10

flying on Air Force one, and it just people

31:12

just get hooked on that sort of level

31:15

of being important to the point that they're

31:17

like, Okay, well where am I where's my money coming

31:19

from? So I can run my next campaign.

31:21

I gotta fucking kiss the ring, I gotta bend

31:23

the knee, then I'll do that, versus

31:25

people who are like we just need like a World

31:27

War Ze type strategy

31:30

of being like, yeah, man, go in, make

31:32

the votes count if they fucking come in primary

31:34

you like, we'll just put seventeen more bodies

31:36

up that are to go with nobody who gives a fuck about

31:39

staying there and having like a dynastic run as

31:41

a congress person, because everyone's calculus is just

31:43

to it's like, once you get there, is just to

31:45

stay.

31:46

There, to stay there.

31:46

Yeah, And that's what's like, I think that's what poisons

31:49

a lot of people on some level, and there's only a

31:51

few people that are able to kind of you

31:53

know, it's like maybe three people that can even

31:55

keep their principles.

31:57

It's like it's like a principle like uh

31:59

twy light zone version of fame. It's

32:02

like at least like fame. It's it just seems kind

32:05

of cut and dry, you know, it's and then what I reunists

32:07

you end up in Doing's house. It gets

32:09

a little more complicated, but

32:11

you know, like that, but that's the dynamics

32:14

that you're dealing with. And then like to be like

32:16

to want political fame feels

32:18

insane.

32:20

Right, Yeah, it feels like that is

32:22

the thing that is most noteworthy

32:24

about all of them is that they've

32:27

made that decision to pursue that. Like that's

32:29

the strangest thing about them. It's not like, oh,

32:31

there's so much smarter, right, right,

32:33

They're like they're smart. There are a lot of smart people

32:35

and a lot of different industries. The thing

32:37

that is unique and defining about

32:40

all the people in this is that they don't

32:43

think it's weird that they're in charge of other people,

32:46

you know, right, and and.

32:47

A lot of them, especially like with Kennedy,

32:50

it's like they're self funding, so

32:52

they're just like, yeah, I mean I

32:54

can only imagine the type of I

32:56

just speak about comics, so that's my world. But

32:58

like if comedians that are great actually

33:01

had the money to self fund the way like Jlo

33:03

fucking self funded that stupid fucking movie. Yeah,

33:05

twenty million dollars. You know, it's like, bit, you can't use that money

33:08

for something good, all right, But

33:10

it's just like it's that, you know, they

33:13

perpetuates whatever it is that you want to

33:15

perpetuate, And it's just such a bummer that

33:17

principal people like don't want to be

33:19

wealthy and don't want to like have

33:22

a power over people, which is good, but

33:24

it's just like, fuck, man, how do we really

33:27

change all this shit? You know exactly what

33:29

you were saying. It's like to have seventeen people ready

33:31

to fucking infiltrate that shit.

33:33

Yeah, because that's the thing that gets people in line, you

33:35

know, like they go, oh, you don't you don't want

33:37

to take this money from APEC, Right?

33:39

I guess what then will primary you? And it takes

33:41

someone to be like I don't give up, go ahead, yeah,

33:44

because we'll run somebody. I got fucking

33:46

thirty five thousand people behind me that are ready

33:49

to fucking also just be a

33:51

body just to be a vote, like not to be a

33:53

career politician, but to be a vote. And

33:55

I think that's like a paradigm shift that may

33:58

or may not happen. But I don't know, Like there's there's

34:00

so many other factors that play.

34:02

Yeah, I started rewatching Veep and

34:04

I'm just like, so like, yeah, this has got to be what

34:07

it's like, this shit is so insane. How

34:09

could it not be this?

34:10

That's what all the political operatives were like, this is

34:12

the first time it's actually been accurate, except

34:15

like, our insults aren't as good as their

34:17

insults.

34:18

Of course they're not that smart.

34:19

In DC, they call it Hollywood for ugly people.

34:22

That's what they say.

34:23

That's funny.

34:24

But the wild shit is like so with this rifkid, the

34:26

thing that really blows my mind right is like

34:29

after this like brainworm shit, Like

34:31

someone asked, you know his campaign

34:33

about being like yo, this guy said he's got like

34:36

he's saying, yo, I got cognitive issues

34:38

and they're like, is this going to be a problem, And the spokesperson

34:41

said, quote that is a hilarious suggestion

34:43

given the competition, right.

34:46

And they're so right. That's

34:48

what helps me up. And they're so right.

34:50

He's up against a decrepit monkey skeleton

34:53

and a sentient racist diaper, and

34:55

you're like, yeah, I don't know.

34:56

The motherfucker way too much sushi. I guess with anti

34:58

VAXX, I mean, put.

34:59

It, That's what I'm saying.

35:00

That's so frustrating. There's like much better, you

35:03

know, qualified, smarter, more intelligent, more

35:05

eloquent people, but it's like they don't have the funding. And it's

35:07

like, j Loo, take that twenty million

35:09

and find someone interesting to get into

35:11

politics. I just I just everything feels

35:13

insane.

35:14

Well, just that movie is timeless. That's gonna

35:16

be a museum.

35:18

Jack O'Brien, that

35:20

part, Yeah, yeah, with fucking posts

35:22

Malone being one of the fucking whatever.

35:25

The I couldn't even get through. I think I got through the second

35:27

song and I was like, yeah, I'm not doing this. This is insane.

35:29

Yeah.

35:30

In the movie, yeah, he plays like there's

35:32

like a there's like a council of the zodiac

35:35

symbols and like people are like embodying.

35:38

Yeah no, and I watched it. It's

35:40

just he disappears into his roles so

35:42

much that.

35:43

I Smelleyballs get

35:45

together.

35:46

I thought it was pre Ma alone.

35:48

The other thing is like, yeah, I think

35:50

hopefully more people just understand right

35:52

that with our the illusion of having

35:55

primaries and things like that, it's truly what the ruling

35:57

class wants to put on the menu for us,

35:59

you know, Like because there are so many progressive

36:02

people that have tried to run get bodied out,

36:05

you see what happens to like, you know, every

36:07

every nearly every election cycle, there's someone

36:10

who's like has a message that is trying

36:12

to go against the status quo, and it's just like, oh, you

36:14

know, let's pretend, you

36:17

know, a fuck them, get the money. You

36:19

know what.

36:19

Also, I'll say to that too. I have

36:22

a friend who's voted third party as long as I've

36:24

known her, and she's a civil rights

36:26

lawyer, Like she's about about it right, And

36:28

I have never like looked down on her when

36:30

she would do that, because I was like, that's fucking her choice. You

36:32

gets to make whatever choice she wants. But

36:35

with this round, where like I've been telling people

36:37

like I don't know, I don't know what I'm gonna do, Like I'm gonna obviously

36:39

vote for all the other shit. I was like, but I don't know. I think I'm just

36:42

gonna leave it blank for you know, the president, because

36:44

I just feel I feel insane. I

36:46

don't feel principled. I mean, I don't feel like it's principled.

36:49

And uh, I have gotten so many

36:51

condescending responses to that, and I'm

36:54

just like, and I ended up texting my friend that

36:56

again has been voting third party since she's been

36:58

able to. I asked, sure, if I've

37:00

ever been at condescending dickhead to her, because

37:02

I've never experienced I've never I've never thought

37:04

about voting third party or just not voting for, you

37:07

know, the Democrat, and so

37:09

I've been talking to people about that and yeah, everyone's

37:12

so rude. Anyways, she was

37:14

like, no, you've never been that way, and I was like, thank god.

37:16

I was like, I mean, logically, it makes no sense,

37:18

but it just made me glad that I was never

37:20

that person, because it just it feels so insane

37:22

that people are just so they have no desire

37:25

to think that change or improvement

37:28

can exist, like it's an option, Like it's

37:30

just not an option for people. And I find it so

37:33

it's really disheartening. I guess I just want to say

37:35

that.

37:36

I mean, I think it also speaks to a level of comfort

37:38

someone is experiencing when you can look at all these

37:40

things on the horizon and for many people, they're like, Yo,

37:42

this looks like this ends with me being

37:44

imprisoned or having the rights severely

37:46

restricted. And they're like, nah, I've been good,

37:49

I'll probably be good. Yeah, And then they're like, don't fuck

37:51

this up for me. And you know, that's

37:53

why I think it's this is such a fucking

37:55

precarious election, man, because everything

37:58

that's happening resonates with so many different people

38:00

in so many dimensions, and like for all

38:02

the handwringing about like you know,

38:05

the the fascism that Donald Trump is gonna

38:07

bring, which I understand, it's it can be a completely

38:09

different dimension. But like what we are seeing

38:12

even with the way this, like the police

38:14

are behaving with students, you look

38:16

at in the sixties, like

38:18

in the seventies, like these Vietnam protests, there was

38:21

no militarized response off

38:23

the fucking bat like there is now. That's

38:25

fine, this is this is completely different

38:28

shit like they would have time travels been like oh

38:30

shit, they're doing all like that already,

38:33

right, They're like, you know, like it's anyway,

38:35

the times are very different, and I

38:37

think that's what just makes it very hard to

38:39

like think about how how

38:42

things improve and what the pathway

38:44

there is, and like, yeah, the other times

38:46

when I talk to like people who do a lot of like

38:48

activist work, like in the streets and stuff and doing

38:50

like working for like nonprofits and things, they're

38:52

like, they're like, I think my job would be a

38:54

lot harder if Trump's in office, because they'll,

38:57

you know, the kinds of shit that they would try and make it legal

38:59

would make really hard for me to work with like

39:01

very vulnerable people. And it's

39:03

just like there's so many there's so many late there's

39:05

so many things to consider.

39:07

But yeah, it's but I think everybody's going

39:10

through it and we shouldn't be condescending

39:12

to each other on you know.

39:14

It's also just what a what a terrible way to

39:16

approach any conversation that someone was trying

39:18

to have sincerely, you know, yeah, you

39:20

can't actually have a conversation about this. You need to be a dickhead

39:23

off junk, right. It's like, isn't the daily

39:25

Zeitgeist and you're not a guest.

39:27

You can't just do that, right.

39:30

Sorry for the dog barking and I'm dog sitting.

39:33

If we didn't already know, no, no, no,

39:35

no's crazy.

39:41

All right, Should we take a break and come back and talk

39:44

about Jerry Seinfeld's weird movie that's

39:49

a bumper comedic icon Seinfeld

39:52

is for sure. Oh man, all right, we'll

39:55

be right back, and

40:07

we're back. And at

40:10

this point, Boeing and Terrible

40:13

Publicity are like they

40:16

go together like peanut butter and chocolate.

40:18

I'm gonna say, like sardine and pretzel, the

40:21

two famous combinations.

40:24

Yeah, if sardine and pretzel are peanut

40:26

butter and chocolate products were constantly falling

40:28

apart thirty thousand feet in the air. But

40:32

Boeing has now locked out one

40:34

hundred and twenty five of their unionized firefighters

40:37

in Washington State. The union claims

40:39

Boeing has saved billions in insurance

40:41

costs by employing its

40:43

own on site firefighters, but

40:46

they're still paying these firefighters a pittance.

40:49

They're proposed pay increase for these workers

40:51

would mean that Cruise would be quote earning

40:54

twenty to thirty percent less than firefighters

40:57

in the cities where Boeing plants are located.

41:00

So you're you're taking less money to

41:02

be a fighter.

41:03

You're taking less money, but you get the

41:06

the joy of working for Boeing

41:09

basically an arms manufacturer who

41:11

also has a side hustle where they make

41:13

the planes that you fly around in. But

41:16

yeah, it'd be like if Richie Rich paid the employees

41:18

of his private McDonald's thirty percent less

41:21

than the employees not working in a child's

41:24

mansion. Any any other Richie rich

41:26

fans out there.

41:29

I mean the mcaulay culkin version.

41:31

Yeah, Yeah, doesn't do Barber

41:33

Streisan have McDonald's

41:36

in her basement? I know she had, Yeah, but I don't

41:38

know what I think does. I think it isn't.

41:40

I think it is a McDonald's. Yeah, I wonder what

41:42

their pay was like compared

41:45

to like.

41:46

He's probably got clones or something working

41:48

in there, clone dogs and shit

41:51

trained clones.

41:52

Yeah, but yeah, Boeing wants firefighters

41:55

to extend the time it takes for firefighters

41:57

to hit the top pay scale to nineteen

42:01

years, up from

42:03

fourteen. The union is asking

42:05

for five and they're

42:07

like, uh, how about we take

42:10

your five and add it to the already

42:13

insulting. That is such a hopeless

42:15

situation we put you in.

42:17

They're probably like, oh, we misunderstood. I

42:20

thought, oh, okay, you didn't want the five,

42:22

you don't want five more?

42:23

Okay.

42:24

It's like they're trying to incentivize

42:26

people to keep their planes

42:29

falling out of the sky, you know what I mean. It's

42:31

like, why don't you like treating their

42:33

employees so terribly? Is just

42:36

incentivizing them to do a shitty job

42:38

on every aspect of plane production.

42:40

Yeah, especially the people that you know, like the

42:43

firefighters.

42:44

Yeah, assumably at the facility, Like, oh,

42:46

would that one just get a little bit singed?

42:48

Yeah, yeah, put it in, put it in. It's good, it's good.

42:50

We're good here. It's air. You're gonna have fight. I

42:52

mean, the AI is going to replace firefighters

42:54

anyways. Guys. So I don't know what we're even

42:56

talking about here. You know people, you know, people are talking

42:59

like that right now. Oh yeah, the people in Boeing.

43:01

Can you imagine like that? Who don't

43:03

even get a fucking need pilot? Do you kid

43:05

it? Have you

43:08

seen the

43:10

fuck do you think auto pilot is? Motherfucker?

43:14

Dude, We're so fucking close.

43:15

So we're gonna get those inflatable guys from air

43:17

the movie Airplane.

43:18

Yeah right, yeah, exactly.

43:23

Yeah.

43:24

Yeah. But so they're locking out trained firefighters,

43:27

which might seem like a pretty huge safety

43:29

risk, but not to worry because they're

43:32

bringing in a fleet full of highly qualified

43:34

scabs.

43:35

Ah boy.

43:36

They're also currently in talks with the

43:38

International Association of Machinists

43:41

and Aerospace Workers District seven fifty

43:43

one and Puget Sound, who want

43:46

not just better wages, but a greater

43:48

say in the company and high standards of

43:50

safety for Boeing manufacturing. Yeah,

43:53

good luck. Standards

43:55

of safety. Yeah, if

43:58

they follow the same negotiating tactic, they'll

44:00

like start sprinkling like rusty

44:03

nails around the you know, like

44:06

just like super dangerous ship

44:08

everywhere to Yeah, just loose

44:11

bags make it more less

44:14

safe.

44:14

Yeah. How'd you get a loaded guns?

44:18

Loaded guns with no safety mechanism or

44:20

whatever, just a plan yeah

44:22

inside like a paint can shaker.

44:25

Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, it's put those

44:27

in there. You should be right, you'll be right.

44:28

Just drop them next to you and you have to remember

44:31

not to grab them because.

44:33

Switch blades and machetties just around

44:36

thick.

44:37

Fast ah got his ass.

44:41

God, what are scab firefighters

44:43

even, like like I you know, like

44:46

what who are these guys?

44:47

They're like out of.

44:48

Work firefighters or something like, isn't

44:51

you know like I'm even like trying to wrap my head around, like I

44:53

mean, I get that there are private firefighting

44:56

brigades because that's like where like half of the

44:58

like the like people in Malibu you use, those

45:00

kinds of people are in Calabastes. So

45:03

I just answered my own question.

45:04

It's like the private ties firefighters,

45:07

please, thank you.

45:08

I have to hope they're not as

45:10

hot as regular fight.

45:14

Much like shittier firefighters.

45:16

A little heavier, not nearly as sexy. Teeth

45:19

that is white, you know.

45:20

Yeah, budget perfect,

45:22

handlebar mustaches perfect.

45:25

They don't have Dalmatians. They have kind of like sick

45:27

looking like like wiry mutts.

45:30

Yeah right exactly, Yeah, like

45:32

Christy nomespuppy Yeah. Speaking

45:34

of which, speaking of which,

45:38

oh man, well, Puppy Side Lady

45:40

is now getting destroyed by

45:42

her own very sad just

45:45

briefly checking back in because this is somehow

45:48

the ghost written book that keeps on giving.

45:51

But she had pretty easy interviews

45:53

with most conservative outlets early on in like

45:55

the dog killing controversy, but

45:59

recently that has not been the case. In the

46:01

last day, she's had some pretty hard

46:03

interviews, like on Fox Business,

46:06

she went to speak with Stuart Varney and

46:08

he pretty much was unrelenting and trying

46:10

to get her to admit that maybe it was a bit

46:12

of a fuck up to include that weird

46:14

shit in her book about just being like, Yeah, my

46:17

fucking kill dogs, bros. Because

46:19

I'm tough and that fucking with me. I

46:22

will put them down. I don't

46:24

give a fuck if you're fourteen months So you're

46:26

talking about puppy, right, No, talking

46:28

about a dog. She gets in an argument

46:30

with him where she's like, you're talking about a puppy. She's

46:33

like, well, no, it's a dog. It's an adult working dog.

46:35

It's like fourteen months. She's like yeah, and

46:37

then that's real and he's like, when my kids

46:40

to work, so what Yeah? But

46:42

uh, it was like this interview was part like let

46:44

me help you out of this shit storm, here's

46:46

an opportunity for you to write this ship,

46:48

maybe do a Maya kulpa, when part

46:51

let me just make this freak squirm.

46:54

So after going back and forth, on the topic for a couple

46:56

of minutes. They switched topics to talk about like plumbers

46:58

and stuff and electricians and South Dakota, and

47:01

then he came right back asking

47:03

if she still thought she had a fucking

47:05

shot at being VP. And this

47:07

is where like it got a little bit contentious.

47:11

You get truth here

47:14

we go.

47:15

Do you still think that you are in line to be Trump's

47:17

vice president? It's up to Donald Trump. He's

47:19

the only person who will decide this. He's

47:22

the only person who will decide. And I spoke, yes, I

47:24

do speak to him. May I ask what you said to you about

47:26

being Oh I never tell anybody

47:28

my personal conversations with I

47:31

talked to President Trump all the time about the dogs,

47:33

about a lot of things. And right now I tell you what.

47:35

He is being persecuted in a political

47:38

hunt, which hunt in this court

47:40

case. So I'm proud of him about

47:42

how tough he is and how well he is

47:44

doing. Did you bring up enough, Steward?

47:47

This interview is ridiculous what you were

47:49

doing right now, So you need to stop

47:52

it is okay, it is Let's talk

47:54

about some real topics that Americans care about. We're

47:56

out of time, Oh, well, of course we are. We do.

47:58

Thank you for being with us. Od

48:03

just but the dog though.

48:05

I like how she's

48:08

so slippery with this shit that it's not like

48:10

you've spoken to Donald Trump. She goes, I speak

48:12

to Donald Trump, So no, you

48:15

know what I mean, like doing that kind of you know, fucking

48:17

with tents there just to be like I'm gonna

48:19

dodge the question.

48:21

So yeah, you hear that.

48:22

Just Stuart, enough, you're fucking

48:24

flaming me on Fox. This isn't supposed

48:26

to happen. You're supposed to act like that was cool shit

48:28

I did. And then she got

48:31

fucking bodied the same day

48:33

on Newsmax when some guy

48:36

robbed Finnerty apparently this guy's name started

48:38

off saying, I think you were probably like

48:40

he starts off this appearance by saying, I think

48:42

in the beginning you were like at the probably at the top

48:45

of the list for VP options. But after

48:47

this shit book, I don't think you're even

48:49

in the convo, my lady, And

48:51

then he this time he's

48:54

pressing her about that fake

48:56

ass meeting with Kim Jong un, which

48:58

again never her fucking happened,

49:01

and she won't quite admit

49:04

that it never happened, and that's where it gets

49:06

again. That's where this one gets her

49:08

publisher.

49:09

Has admitted it didn't happen because they've like gone

49:11

and said, we had to go back to that.

49:14

Of course they don't blame her, like we had to talk to

49:16

the ghost writer and the editor

49:19

and yeah, change change a couple of

49:21

things.

49:21

Wow, So the governor had doesn't even vet

49:24

the shit that goes in the book because that's would

49:26

be a problem too, it was a really bad ghost writer.

49:28

Well, and then he starts off by saying he's like, you know, I think

49:30

the big problem right now politicians is they lie.

49:33

And she's like yeah, yeah. He's like, so what

49:35

about Kim jong un?

49:37

Well gets her with that. Uh.

49:38

And this is again where this is a little

49:40

bit further into the conversation, but he's

49:43

still just not letting it go that she won't

49:45

admit that she did not meet Kim Jong un.

49:47

Ask for the content to be changed and it has been.

49:49

Governor.

49:49

I'm not asking you about the details of this alleged

49:52

meeting. I'm asking if the meeting actually

49:54

happened. I don't think it did, and I think if

49:56

it did, you'd be able to confirm for me that yes, it

49:58

did, and here's when it happened.

50:01

It happens say at such and such

50:03

a date or a month, or.

50:04

You don't have to be about I'm not going to talk about.

50:07

You're going to continue to have to answer this question.

50:09

I don't think so, because the average American citizen

50:11

is more worried about the border. They're more worried about

50:14

what we see in a white house.

50:15

Then you're lying that's

50:18

that's such a weird pivot.

50:20

And it's always like, you know, they're always

50:22

turning it around on brown people. That's

50:25

all like, actually, you know what they can do. They

50:27

actually hate Mexicans. I think she should double

50:29

down on this thing. She I think

50:32

she should come prepared with a photograph

50:34

of her, like like writing piggyback

50:37

on Kim Jong un.

50:39

Yeah, you know what I mean.

50:40

They're like they're both like they're like they're both

50:42

like a family who like refused

50:45

to honor his name or something.

50:47

Yeah, She's like, Governor, can I see your hands for a

50:49

moment, Yes, here, Okay, so it looks like

50:51

you have five fingers now in this photo,

50:53

you have seventeen fingers on your right.

50:56

Is this ai?

50:58

She goes on, she's one of

51:00

the dresses from the from

51:02

the met Gallup.

51:05

Misled the American people over one hundred and fifty

51:07

times.

51:08

Nobody pushes him.

51:09

On what he says that he was imprisoned with Nelson

51:12

Mandela, that he drove

51:14

an eighteen wheeler that his uncle was.

51:15

And said he was in prison with Nelson Mandela.

51:18

Is that a real thing? Honestly?

51:20

Probably, I mean at this point, yeah, probably,

51:23

just like fucking jumble up

51:25

there.

51:25

Yeah, And I would like to see

51:27

that the American people know and recognize

51:30

the difference that they want leaders who actually will

51:32

go forward and give them a way that they can elect

51:34

people who want to represent them and fight for

51:36

them governor.

51:37

That's a very good point, and I'm not deliberately

51:39

trying to be adversarial. I just Donald

51:42

Trump winning and is very important.

51:44

Yes, it is.

51:45

I think that whoever he chooses to be his running mate.

51:47

And again, I think at one point you were

51:49

at the top of that list. But you're going to get

51:51

questions a lot more difficult than that.

51:53

The thing that's very interesting to me is the only

51:55

person who will decide.

51:57

Is Donald Trump.

51:57

You said that in the last interview, but anyway, just

52:00

you hate to see it, you hate to see it. It's

52:02

just funny when like you so clear, like Michael

52:05

Jordan was at my birthday party, and

52:08

you're like, oh, really I think he

52:10

was.

52:10

Though, right, I don't think he was. Yeah,

52:13

that seems really unlikely.

52:14

I don't know if I don't know if the other kids in schools are gonna

52:16

like that. Well, you know what, they don't care because

52:18

they're worried about the fact that the tater tots

52:21

are so bad in the cafeteria, right, Okay,

52:23

that won't matter to them. Next question, Rob,

52:26

please, Yeah, I don't

52:28

know where God, I mean

52:30

again, I don't think I've ever seen her in motion

52:33

before. She really seems

52:35

like an evil character being

52:37

played by Christina Applegate.

52:40

Yeah, yeah, yeah. She

52:42

seems like the substitute teacher who

52:45

like slept with one of the students

52:47

to ruin their lives, just

52:50

to ruin the kids line.

52:52

All right, finally, the met

52:54

Gala, we can't we can't go much further,

52:57

guys, of everything that's happening, everything

53:00

that's happening, we would be remiss to not We would

53:02

be so super remiss

53:05

not to mention the met gala

53:08

where most of the pictures

53:10

that I saw were AI which

53:13

is so insulting

53:15

to the stylists. Like people

53:18

were like, nah, just like this fucking thing that

53:21

somebody made up by being like turned

53:24

Katy Perry into a character

53:27

from a Lord of the Rings

53:30

slash fiic thing. Yeah, like

53:32

got more clicks than anyone.

53:34

It's like a bronze boostier

53:37

with a bronze boostier with a key, a garden

53:39

key. Yeah, see your garden key down the middle

53:41

Garden of Time. I don't know if you remember

53:44

that being the thing.

53:45

And then to

53:47

two to two like made

53:49

of flowers, it's Lady Gaga

53:52

became a layer cake that defied

53:55

physics, looked like the Guggenheim

53:58

and you was gonna.

53:58

Say, yeah, look like the googen High is bleeding flowers

54:01

from it seems. And that's Lady

54:03

Gay Gay Gay Lady Gaga.

54:06

And then uh Rihanna of course

54:09

looking like a chair that the

54:11

Pope would sit.

54:12

In slash

54:15

You know that thing when people do embroidery, like

54:17

you have to put it in that like circular wooden.

54:19

Yes, yeah, yeah, that's like stretch

54:22

frame for embroidery.

54:24

She's wearing that and has seventeen

54:27

fingers on her right hand.

54:28

But these are these are photo

54:31

like of the photos that I saw from the Met

54:33

Gala, these were the ones that

54:35

stuck in my head, I think, And you

54:38

know, I probably glanced

54:40

past like a dozen on social media,

54:43

you know, as I was trying to follow

54:45

the results of the Minnesota Timberwolves

54:48

just beating the ship out of the defending champs.

54:50

How have we gotten this long without mentioning it? Worry?

54:53

I don't want to time. Sorry, that's

54:55

the craziest game I've seen. We have a whole other

54:57

show where we can Yeah, I guess we'll talk about that on our

54:59

end podcast. But the yeah,

55:02

like, these were the ones that popped up that

55:05

I remembered, So I don't know. Now

55:07

I'm scared of AI again, guys.

55:08

Sure, No. I love how unbelievable

55:10

those are. It looks I'm expecting one of like

55:13

j Lo's face in front of the Thomas

55:15

the Tank Engine you

55:19

know what I mean, j Lo stunts Thomas

55:22

Tank Engine Garden like

55:25

one of the kids from Euphoria. But they're like

55:27

their faces it's in the moon or something, just

55:30

like unbelievable.

55:31

Shit, Yeah, holy shit, Yeah,

55:33

these are whatever, man, this

55:35

is where we're at.

55:36

This is uh met Gala.

55:38

Ai.

55:39

I guess, like I said November, this summer

55:41

is gonna get real fucking weird, and I'm

55:43

sure the gloves come off for political more

55:45

political misinformation into.

55:47

Oh my god, can you imagine when they have Trump

55:50

in this copper Bostier with

55:52

the key running down the model, it's

55:55

god, fuck up the Internet.

55:57

And everyone over forty five leaves.

56:00

It's true automatically, like they there's such

56:03

a generational divide.

56:04

They just can.

56:05

I mean, I have difficulty telling with a lot of it. But

56:07

then there are people who just have no idea. Yes

56:09

on the Internet has to be true.

56:11

Yeah, from now on, it's just like you have to

56:13

assume nothing is true. But yeah, yeah,

56:15

you just have to look.

56:16

It's always like look at the hands, look at

56:18

the background. There's a certain things

56:20

that have like give that, you

56:23

know, tell on them a bit. Like there's some

56:25

of the photographers. One guy has a

56:27

head so long. He looks like, what

56:30

are the what are the aliens the technical term

56:32

for the aliens and aliensmorph zeno

56:34

morph. This dude has a xenomorph dome.

56:37

Yeah, but somehow he's looking at

56:39

like a I don't know, like an ancient

56:41

camera whatever. Hey man, Rihanna looks

56:43

great. Rihanna, you look great. And also

56:46

you look like this photo was from when you were

56:48

like twenty four.

56:49

Yeah. Yeah. So that's the other thing that I think the

56:51

way they got my old ass is like

56:54

they focused on celebrities that

56:56

I'm familiar with and like the

56:58

time that they were at their pe of fame

57:00

and just like put them in pictures.

57:04

It with like Met this year's met

57:06

Gallathem. I was like, oh, there we go. I'm

57:08

still my interests are still relevant.

57:11

Like meanwhile, like nobody, Yeah, Rihannah

57:15

looks great.

57:19

Paul Abdul in a beautiful dress.

57:24

That was my cry.

57:28

I can't believe what Kathy Ireland

57:30

came to in the metcrop.

57:32

I'm all got looks

57:36

great. I mean it was Garden

57:39

of Time. You know, It's time

57:41

57:43

have surprised me if a young Paul Abdul showed

57:45
