0:20
is courtesy of who else?
0:22
Johnny Davis? I am
0:24
jack Uh? That over there,
0:27
well, that smild over there, that bawled
0:30
up mess in the corner. Well,
0:33
now you're talking about my friend mats uh
0:36
and these well, these are
0:38
some things that are trending. There's
0:40
been an ongoing conversation about
0:44
whether it's bad for him to charge
0:46
your guests after a dinner party.
0:49
This, you know, one of my favorite tweets
0:51
from last week. Yeah, Amber Nelson
0:53
uh tweeted got invited to someone's
0:55
place for dinner and they charged
0:58
me for it. This is weird, right it?
1:00
Um? And that's that developed
1:03
a little bit more. Huh. I didn't even look through
1:05
the thread to understand what the dimensions were
1:07
of this tweet, and I was just like, that's that's bad
1:09
form. You don't invite people over in the charge. The people
1:11
were like what who what?
1:14
What did they? What did you eat? Right? Like?
1:17
What was right? Exactly? Like beef?
1:20
They were they were saying that it was homemade
1:22
pasta. They ate a couple of plates of Penny
1:24
a La vodka and the
1:26
host ven mode them for twenty Yeah
1:31
for homemade Penny Alla vodka. Yeah,
1:34
you can make that ship if you went, if I went
1:36
to the grocery store right now, I could cook,
1:39
I could do like at least seven
1:41
people's worth for that amount of money. Yeah,
1:43
but if you go to the restaurant and
1:45
get two helpings of it, unless
1:49
you're talking, unless you're talking for Zoli's
1:52
or and do you know that
1:55
was that was the fast food chaining. Italian
1:57
food was like four in enough that they
2:00
like a fast food like a McDonald's. For Italian
2:02
food, you get like a styrofoam
2:04
thing a spaghetti and so the big ZiT was
2:06
good. Wait, hold on, how would they serve
2:09
it up to you like a you know, like serving
2:11
box isn't ship? Did they have their
2:14
own like what you get Chipotle food and you
2:16
know, well you get a Chipotle bowling that's what it's
2:18
drive through For Zolies, I think they
2:20
had drive through, which is like kind of like a
2:23
Samarrow kind of fast Italian type
2:25
ship. I'd say that was dangerous except
2:27
down south. They also have drive through liquor
2:29
stores, so right, right, so
2:32
who's really the snow plinking? Right? Um?
2:37
But anyways, that's it's.
2:40
Yeah, it's not a good price for
2:42
a dinner party, it's not a bad price
2:45
for a restaurant.
2:47
So it's like they shot in between.
2:50
But that what is that? But you
2:52
can understand right when a restaurant charges
2:55
you the money, like what all that,
2:58
it's not just beyond Hey, drying new adles
3:00
at the store only cost this much plus
3:02
a little sauce. I mean, we're looking at eight bucks
3:04
max here. But you get that. There's they got
3:06
to pay the staff, they got overhead
3:09
costs, they got like the prestige of it being
3:11
a restaurant that factor in to the pricing. I don't understand
3:13
was this person like a Michelin starred chef and then
3:15
therefore they felt that because that bills just wacky?
3:18
Yeah I did. I did not dig into
3:20
what what the bona
3:23
fides of the chef of the
3:25
host was. I I think
3:27
it's definitely rude.
3:30
Yeah, no, it's not. It's not. Okay,
3:33
you can't do that. On the other hand,
3:37
well, were you to start
3:39
a trend where it was like after
3:41
dinner party. Everybody gets charged based
3:44
on what they brought to the
3:46
dinner party in terms of like, well you had you
3:48
had that great anecdote about that time you
3:50
met Ted Danson and
3:52
he was he was really drunk. So i'm gonna
3:55
I'm gonna give you five dollars off.
3:57
I'm gonna charge you dollars
4:00
you brought just yourself. So
4:02
you you're twenty and you were
4:04
an energy vampire, so we're
4:07
going to charge you forty dollars because everybody
4:10
left just fucking exhausted from
4:13
you giving them like five different
4:16
Wikipedia pages, uh
4:19
and dry background information
4:21
on random topics that crop up. Yeah,
4:23
and right after Larry talked about his good news
4:25
at his job, you just started exasperatingly
4:28
like exhaling, trying to get everyone's attention,
4:30
just like uh uh,
4:36
and no one no one was biting because they know
4:38
you're just gonna do something self serving. And
4:40
then finally when they bit, you
4:43
then just brought the whole energy down. Well,
4:45
if you got to know nobody,
4:47
but nobody bit you just said, well,
4:50
if you got to know nobody even asked
4:52
you, that's that's actually you know what hit me with
4:54
fifty for that I'm gonna be distributing
4:56
that. I'm actually gonna offset the cost of
4:58
the other people with that energy.
5:00
Vampire movie pulled back there. But I
5:03
mean, the only time you can do it right is like you
5:06
either have a pot luck where like yo, let's
5:08
have a thing, but like you know this
5:10
is I used to do this all the time when I have money, you say, oh,
5:12
let's let's do something. But like I can make one
5:14
thing, and like if everybody brings something that we have like a
5:16
little thing, I don't. I'm not kicked up enough
5:18
to go buy all the food for like all these people
5:20
here, or people bring
5:23
alcohol or other dessert or whatever
5:26
you have to you have to be up front. The only
5:28
time I've done it was like, hey, should we all go in
5:30
on like a big piece
5:32
of meat or something to roast? And also
5:34
like I don't have the money to buy it up front, hit me with
5:36
it so I can go to the store and get it ahead
5:39
of time. Sure, yeah, ahead of time. Or
5:41
the other thing that I've done where I split
5:44
is if like you're at
5:46
someone's house and then you're like,
5:48
you guys want to stay for dinner, Like maybe we could order
5:50
from this place and then everybody like
5:53
is making the decision together, and then it's
5:55
like a group decision and then exactly
5:57
and then even in those moments, you'll have the friends say hey, you
5:59
know what, like I'm not really eating out right now, I'm just trying
6:01
to save some money, and you go, Okay, that's cool, that's cool. It's cool.
6:03
There's like look, I got you, I got you, I got you, unless
6:06
you're trying to pull a scamp. I mean, yeah, you know, oh
6:08
man, I just make that leave my
6:13
sight. Anyways,
6:16
let us know, uh, if you if you
6:18
haven't already you know way in
6:21
yeah, I mean if I want more stories, I
6:23
want more stories of people getting charged. I
6:25
know, like petty yo, I'm not uh, I
6:28
don't know if I should say this. I don't think they listen
6:30
anyway. I know somebody who
6:33
like they're so on top
6:35
of like little charges. They'll venmouth
6:37
ship that's like really specific amounts.
6:40
They're like it's two thirty eight two
6:42
dollars and thirty eight cents because
6:44
I split this one thing and I noticed
6:47
you had that. I've been hit with some very
6:50
specific Venmo charge before, but
6:52
like ones where it was like so it
6:55
was such a small amount that. It was just more
6:57
confusing. It didn't feel like, oh, so now I'm
6:59
paying for your ship. It was more like, oh
7:01
okay, I figured we were
7:03
all kind of splitting this thing. But
7:07
hey, the specificity,
7:09
it's how stories get away with doing that, you know,
7:13
not ten dollars. We figured out it was just because
7:17
we know exactly how much this costs.
7:20
Um, yeah, it sounds like a scamp from
7:22
eight dollars. Well here's some good news.
7:24
Tom Brady is not really retiring.
7:27
H he's back. We're
7:29
all so happy,
7:32
Um that we spent our time and
7:34
attention talking about how he was great
7:36
and the greatest and um,
7:39
yeah, it's funny, man. You like
7:42
it that they experience
7:44
that that life of you
7:47
know, people looking at them
7:49
with a little less interest than before,
7:52
still a level of interest
7:54
that uh, I have never
7:56
experienced and couldn't couldn't imagine
7:59
where people are just like, holy sh it, he's
8:01
not even retired fucking six months.
8:03
That was he wasn't retired like three
8:05
months. I think. I know. I'm trying to give him some
8:08
sound, make it sounds something decent, but look,
8:10
it happens to everybody. J Michael
8:12
Jordan's you know, you think just when
8:14
you think you got out, Yeah, Ego
8:17
pulls here right back. Um,
8:20
so here we go. He's
8:22
back. The people of Tampa Bay are psyched.
8:25
Um, and I'll see where we go.
8:27
England fans, who he somehow erased
8:29
from his career, Yeah, what
8:32
they do for him. I don't know why. I like, that's like the
8:34
one thing I remember because I don't even give a funk about the NFL
8:36
like that. But I was like, damn, he didn't say anything about the bags.
8:39
Fu Okay, salt Elen
8:42
is trending the
8:44
musque man. He's got a he's got a solution
8:48
to everything, and he inserted
8:50
himself into the middle. Yeah, may
8:53
make himself the star of any
8:56
um global important storyline
8:58
that he possibly can. Uh. And
9:00
this is his stupidest attempt
9:02
yet. This is coming off a week he
9:04
tweeted something of it, like jokingly about how like Netflix
9:07
is making some like woke movie about like a black
9:09
Ukrainian soldier who falls in love with
9:12
like a trans Russian soldier.
9:14
It was like like, oh, he's
9:16
on his ship posting nonsense again and
9:18
then even posted like another just
9:21
he's he's just posting, just ship posting.
9:23
You know. I don't know what. Maybe he heard that Grimes
9:27
is now with Chelsea Manning and that kind of set some ship
9:29
off for him this weekend. I don't know, um,
9:31
but he tweeted in Russians
9:34
saying, I hear by challenge of Vladimir Putin
9:36
to single combat. Uh.
9:39
And then he added with the
9:41
stakes being Ukraine, and
9:43
then he said do you agree to this fight? Hmm?
9:47
I wonder if Ukraine agrees with this fight. I
9:49
think they would not agree. Yeah, they
9:51
were like, no, man, have you seen his judo skills?
9:55
You don't want it, you don't want anything to do with him. But
9:57
yeah, I don't know, it's
9:59
just more it posting. And then like some person
10:02
from like the Russian Space Agency
10:04
you like, replied with some like maxim
10:07
about like you are too still too small,
10:09
in a waste of my time, defeat
10:12
my brother and then I will consider it type ship.
10:14
And then m Ellen,
10:17
just really, if you needed more proof
10:19
like that this guy sucks and
10:22
doesn't know shit about anything, I
10:24
don't know. I don't know what else to say. Yeah,
10:26
I'm just trying to get to the headspace where
10:29
this seemed like a good idea other than like if
10:31
it's a bit is the joke
10:33
that he's a rich asshole
10:35
who's completely out of touch with the world, or
10:38
I don't know, it's it's very tony stark ish,
10:41
you know. It's like, hey, thing causing
10:44
the world strife. Why don't you fight me?
10:50
Has a history of fighting things and
10:52
defeating them. Oh, I
10:54
can break the will of child laborers who worked
10:56
in my parents di emerald minds. So
11:00
how does he think we view him?
11:02
Is kind of the question that this is
11:05
the first guy I would pick out to
11:07
be to do like a fight to make me look good.
11:10
Right, Yeah, he's I'm
11:12
guessing he has some like
11:15
living boxing trainer who lives
11:17
like in his guesthouse and has
11:21
been telling him that he has like a killer left hook.
11:23
Something calls him champ all the time when they're like he's
11:25
like on speedbags or he's hitting the pads
11:28
like oh ship, look at that combo now okay,
11:31
and that's where that's where you knocked me out right there?
11:33
Right? That was it? Cinder
11:36
block job. I'm going down if I take that one. It
11:38
doesn't matter, it doesn't matter who you hit. Could
11:41
be gladmore really say
11:43
that last party again, Hey brother, I'm not gonna lie to you.
11:46
I've never seen some ship like this. And then that guy goes,
11:48
he goes, you should see this ship. Man, I just get
11:50
I get real black with him, tell him how he's a championship.
11:53
He starts paying me more. It's fucked up.
11:55
But look, all my
11:57
kids college is paid for and they're only five years old.
12:00
So yeah, what's alright? Alright? Tip?
12:02
Alright, Tip? I
12:04
feel like that's what he's been fucking by
12:08
his boxing coach. Somebody,
12:10
somebody in his life needs to like
12:13
have a talk with him, and they're not going to.
12:15
But like that is that that is a
12:18
piece of advice that is
12:20
probably ten years old. Or
12:22
this could be another weird fucking moment.
12:25
Like I said, Kanye couldn't stand
12:27
the side of Pete Davidson with his the
12:29
mother of his children, and maybe this
12:31
Chelsea Manning news from the weekend really
12:33
completely blew his mind. Right, Yeah
12:36
you heard about that, right, did you? Did you keep
12:39
up with that part of the internet. I did not, but I
12:41
didn't hear about it because I saw that it was on
12:44
trending. Yeah yeah, yeah,
12:46
And so that's that's why we were just trying
12:48
to figure out what who what
12:51
do they what is it? I'm
12:55
I'm more curious about like who's gonna
12:57
pull who in which direction? Like this Chelsea Manning
12:59
pull Grhymes is certain way because Grimes pulled Chelsea
13:01
man in a certain way anyway. But
13:03
if you want to save Ukraine with his fists,
13:09
that it's very funny.
13:11
What does he do? Right? If vlad R Putin says
13:13
okay, bet uh meet
13:16
me and Minsk and then like yeah,
13:19
like you people from Ukraine
13:21
would have to like like block
13:23
him with their body, like
13:26
like we don't want that ship man, You're not what?
13:29
Yeah? Putin's like tagging at Zelensky you
13:31
ay on Twitter, being like you've seen this? Are
13:34
you good with this? Because
13:36
I will. I will dope like a madman
13:39
before he
13:41
did. Put is so doped up
13:43
and just like he's like yo, his
13:46
he I think he cut like forty pounds
13:48
of like water weight's all. You've seen all
13:50
his veins. He's like you can see
13:52
his heart beating in his fucking thighs.
13:55
I don't know. He comes through looking like that general
13:57
with the scar on his face from Avatar and that
14:00
like Giant mix. That
14:02
was, by the way, the first Avatar
14:04
reference in the history of pop culture. Nobody
14:07
remembers that movie, but uh yeah,
14:10
I think we was the moment there we go all
14:12
right, let's take a quick break, we'll be right back,
14:24
and we're back, and
14:27
uh Jenny Thomas, Clarence Thomas's
14:29
wife is in the news.
14:32
So she was doing a like this
14:35
like puff piece with this conservative paper
14:37
that forgets, like the Washington Observer or one of those
14:39
like belt wave papers, and it was like
14:41
this like very you know, meant to be
14:44
like sympathetic and be like she's a really stand
14:46
up lady. And then in part with you the interview, she
14:48
admits that she was at the stop the Steel rally
14:50
on January six, like before everyone's
14:52
like, you know, Jenny Thomas, Clarence
14:55
Thomas's wife has her hands over a lot of
14:57
the planning of the January six rally,
14:59
and people are like, this is fucking ridiculous.
15:01
This is this. This is a sitting Supreme Court
15:03
justices wife partner who
15:06
was on the other side of it, like invested
15:08
in like diet insurrections,
15:11
um and in it saying like, yeah, I
15:13
was there, but I left before got violent,
15:15
left before got I got cold. That's what
15:17
she said. She said she got cold, She got cold, and
15:19
then she left. She got cold feet, I
15:22
think when she didn't realize
15:24
she wasn't built to assault police officer
15:26
something right, But she can't admit that she
15:28
left because it was getting violent and she got
15:30
scared, because admit that what
15:33
was happening was actually bad. Um,
15:35
so she has to say she left
15:38
before because she got
15:40
cold. Yeah,
15:42
yeah, I mean it's just is
15:45
there a version of the
15:47
future where people try and impeach Clarence
15:50
Thomas over I think a lot of
15:52
people are like asking, how
15:54
do you how do you sit with
15:56
this? Like this person isn't, like, you
15:58
know, a far right activist,
16:02
and then they talk about like you
16:04
know, there are interviews like they're very similar to the
16:06
two of them, and you're
16:08
like, hold on, well, if this person is out here
16:10
putting their time and energy into this
16:12
ship, going against you know, the Constitution
16:15
or whatever sacred thing you want to
16:17
say it is, how is this person meant
16:19
to uphold the laws or interpret them
16:21
in a way that isn't different from that? And I think to that she
16:24
was like, we're in different lanes. Well,
16:27
yeah, because you're not a Supreme Court justice,
16:29
but you can be in different lanes and still be having
16:32
similar goals that you're moving towards. So
16:36
jenn A, Uh, that
16:38
was a forest reference
16:41
with Avatar and a Forrest
16:44
Gump preference. Let's go, let's
16:46
go it with a cutthroat
16:48
island one and we hit it. Let's
16:53
go a phrase that I've never heard before
16:56
because I'm from the year two
16:58
thousand and when did Avatar about two thousand
17:00
nine? Uh? Whopper Mount is
17:03
trending. Uh yeah,
17:05
so Burger King. They're
17:08
honing the focus
17:10
of the of their marketing department to just
17:12
the Whopper, the one thing that like people are like,
17:14
yeah, I guess that's the thing we know you for. They're
17:17
they're no longer trying to introduce all this new
17:19
ship and they've released something
17:22
called the Whopper Mount, which is
17:25
to Whopper junior patties stacked
17:28
on what amounts to
17:30
what the reviewer whose
17:32
review I read uh described
17:34
as Texas toast, you know white.
17:37
A lot of people think amount
17:39
comes on rye I
17:41
think is the normal bread of choice.
17:44
But yeah, yeah,
17:46
but that's a little too non
17:49
sort of mid mid
17:52
it's not Western, Yeah, it's
17:54
not. People are gonna be like what the funds
17:57
tastes like seeds, and
17:59
I get it. I was like that with Vibert too. I hated
18:02
the fucking fennel season until like my palate
18:04
evolved. I'm like, oh no, it all, it all works
18:06
together. The sandwich also features
18:08
melted American cheese, caramelized onions,
18:11
uh Stacker sauce, which
18:13
is just you know, Thousand Island
18:15
dressed. Hey man, he doesn't catchup mixed up. We
18:17
get um, but they
18:21
are the takeout is giving
18:23
this a flat a straight
18:26
up they said,
18:28
they said it's very good. Um
18:31
yeah, Like I
18:34
don't know, man, it sounds
18:36
good to me, first of all, because it reduces
18:40
like the one thing that was good about the whopper
18:42
is generally the patty, right, like the
18:44
kind of charboiled taste of the patty
18:47
that they concoct via a
18:50
galaxy of chemicals. I'm sure. But
18:52
and then you know, just
18:54
give me any burger patty with American cheese. I'm
18:57
I'm generally pretty pretty happy on
18:59
a on a nice piece of stone
19:02
at the takeout. Okay, I pick your
19:04
brain, lilian Um.
19:07
So anyways, just putting it
19:09
on your radar in case you're trying to find
19:12
the next fast food concoction
19:14
to slowly kill yourself with trying
19:16
to know your coworkers with NonStop parting. Uh.
19:20
And finally Rand Paul is trending.
19:23
Um, well, I
19:25
don't know, man, was so petty
19:27
this guy. First of all, Rand Paul is a doctor,
19:29
but he's like, I think an eye doctor who's like I
19:32
think he's been like sued anyway,
19:34
Rand Paul thinks fancies himself a doctor.
19:37
Sure. Uh. And he's also you
19:40
know, he's one of these conservatives who has made
19:42
like hating doctor Faucci like
19:44
his whole fucking personality and identity
19:46
and brand because it makes sense, like
19:48
for a while it was easy points to be like and
19:51
Faucci wants to blah blah blah,
19:53
like, no, it's not the whatever. We can
19:55
we can argue why they're wrong all day. But
19:57
he has introduced an amendment that
20:00
essentially he's trying to reorganize the National
20:02
Institute of Allergy, Infectious and Infectious
20:05
Diseases so to essentially
20:07
like eliminate Dr Fauci's
20:09
position as the director of it. So
20:13
petty Bill straight for his neck and being
20:15
like and with this bill that won't pass, you
20:17
won't even be a thing anymore. M M.
20:21
Because that's that will stop all belief
20:23
in science. It's just Fauci
20:26
is no longer at the nationalist whatever I
20:28
mean, the Faucci hate has grown.
20:31
You know, he put his body in front of
20:34
in a position that was going to
20:37
get a lot of hate. And I hear it from a
20:39
lot of people now that I
20:41
would not have expected to hear from, like people
20:43
who are an anti actress, who are like this guy. His
20:45
messaging was all fucked up, and it's like, well,
20:48
you know, are you like three sentences
20:51
away from using a racialistler or something?
20:56
Right? Oh? Easy, easy, easy. But
20:58
it's uh, this this just
21:00
feels like the laziest possible political
21:04
position to take. Again,
21:06
it underscores the fact
21:09
that conservatives have no real
21:11
political agenda aside from turning
21:13
the clock back to like eighteen sixty
21:16
three white supremacy authoritarianism
21:19
and what and when white supremacy
21:22
was King Man? Why can't we bring back King Cotton?
21:25
Like that's what they're like. I would like
21:27
to actually rest reorganize our government
21:29
to a monarchy where we all lay
21:32
at the feet of King Cotton like our ancestors
21:34
did. But it's just there's
21:37
no there's no worldview aside from
21:39
just tear down whatever like progress
21:41
has been made. So in this case, he's
21:43
just being like, what if there was no doctor Fauci?
21:46
Okay, what yeah?
21:48
Not what if we were able to have better
21:50
pandemic response or research?
21:53
But again, that's too progressive, and that requires
21:55
like putting things into like knowledge or
21:58
having like sympathy for
22:00
people who can't work and getting behind like
22:02
stimulus checks to keep people financially
22:04
afloat when we're asking people to not
22:07
work when there's a pandemic like that. Those
22:09
are solutions, but I don't think there's a way for them to
22:12
do that without them like self
22:14
owning, like their whole platform, which is to absolutely
22:16
not help anybody. And
22:19
even then it's like I know you're struggling, and
22:21
I know, and when you know they're at these
22:23
rallies, they could be saying, I know you're struggling, I know
22:25
times are hard, and it's never that's
22:27
why I'm trying to get you all some more money to make it easier.
22:30
It's just pivot too, and that's why we gotta get
22:32
fucking Foucy out right here. There.
22:35
It is Boom can't do.
22:37
You can't actually solve someone you couldn't just look
22:39
at a group of people even that they I bet
22:41
you even if you said, hey, man, would some more money
22:44
be good, they'd be like fuck, yeah yeah.
22:46
If it was a binary between probably
22:49
more checks or FOUCHI out.
22:51
I think people would ask for the financial support.
22:53
But it depends on if there's a camera
22:55
on them. There's a camera on them, they'd be like, I don't need
22:57
want to be burned this check, just that
23:00
m Dr Fauci's yeah, yeah,
23:02
all right. Well those are six
23:04
things that are trending on this Monday,
23:08
Pye Day of March. Um.
23:10
We are back tomorrow with the whole last episode
23:13
of the show. Until then, be kind to each
23:15
other, be kind to yourselves, get the vaccine,
23:18
don't do nothing about white supremacy, and
23:20
we will talk to you all tomorrow. Bye bye,
