You know, man of a certain age, white

0:08

man of a certain age. We are contractually

0:10

obligated to go see Vampire Weekend when

0:12

they're into course, so I

0:14

did that in a lot of my contractual

0:17

obligation and

0:18

they were awesome.

0:20

And then they brought out Tim Robinson

0:23

and do you know, I think you should

0:25

leave?

0:26

Of course?

0:27

Yeah, so you know the Dangerous Most

0:32

of your words are quotes

0:34

from that, you know, the Dangerous Night's Crew

0:37

song, like at the end of the Dangerous

0:39

Nights video, the Sloppy Stakes,

0:42

and then like you beat when he's on the

0:44

beach and looks over and the baby's there. I

0:47

love that song. I've looked for it

0:49

on I find it.

0:51

It's Vampire Weekend. Their first

0:53

encore was like, hey, so we helped

0:56

this guy write the song for

0:58

the show.

0:59

That My god. I'm a little

1:01

bummed how quiet the crowd is when he

1:03

comes out, though, But I get I

1:05

guess that you can't expect a plurality

1:07

of Vampire Weekend fans to be I'll

1:10

scream if I see Tim Robinson people.

1:12

But yeah, yeah, so I don't

1:14

know what the overlap is.

1:16

I'm processing it too where it's like

1:18

it's not a musician.

1:19

It's a reveal too.

1:20

Yeah, the way he came out in his hood,

1:23

you almost believe maybe he was a little

1:25

like a piece of ship literal pie, Like,

1:30

I wonder who that is. I'm glad they helped

1:32

that guy. He looks like such a shovel.

1:33

He does look like such a piece of ship. Yeah,

1:36

I bet like a plurality

1:38

of the audience is just like, yeah,

1:40

man, that was nice when they brought out that,

1:42

like make a wish kid.

1:44

But that's my favorite is that saying

1:46

that he's a piece of ship is so vague.

1:49

It's not like he was an adulterer

1:52

or like he was a Criminal's right,

1:54

it's it's it's a slang term which

1:57

basically.

2:05

4:35

it other than just being.

4:36

Like, get out here. Don't

4:39

get screaming from the indoor indoors

4:41

so it's hardly audible to the squirrels.

4:44

But yeah, hoping that it's doing something I get. I put

4:46

a bird.

4:46

Feeder up because now that I have this Merlin

4:50

app where it like listens

4:52

to, you can just like set that ship, put it in

4:54

the background of your phone and it'll just

4:56

be recording and telling you every

4:58

bird it heard for like thirty

5:01

minutes.

5:02

I was just looking into that. I saw that the CIA

5:05

is underwriting all the technology on that, so you

5:07

just leave this on all.

5:09

Yeah, it's recording everything you're saying, everything

5:12

we were saying.

5:12

But what it calls out the birds? Just yeah

5:15

yeah yeah, oh okay, it's worth it. It's worth it.

5:17

Yeah. Wait, you can really scientific

5:19

too, like the birds. It's like that was a blue

5:21

one. Yeah, that one flies?

5:23

Yeah, that was that one with

5:25

the wings or whatever.

5:27

Yeah.

5:27

Anyways, well talk more about.

5:29

Talk more about, like, well, yeah, how you disagree

5:31

with the government in the direction of the country and that

5:34

one definitely not a chick. Not

5:36

a chicken.

5:37

Not a chicken. I'm thrilled to be joined

5:39

as always by my co hosts and

5:41

shout out to who did I say that

5:44

was on the discord, Isaac, Isaac. That

5:46

was a great one. Thank you, Isaac. Thrilled to

5:48

be joined as always by my co host mister

5:50

Miles great man.

5:52

Let's just keep the fucking ludicrous theme going

5:54

because rets are all blast

5:57

piled up. Trash rest got a big

5:59

old lash his rat to day. Think is

6:02

RATA day, Come get Joe, trash

6:05

dump dance dashed one now with search

6:07

them stacks, it's rat today, thinking Iggy

6:09

iggy, All right, shout

6:11

out keV whatef that

6:15

you know?

6:15

Man it

6:16

rat? Stand

6:18

by that statement rats he oh yeah yeah,

6:21

big old dump truck asses.

6:22

And if you draw a rat,

6:25

an aerial view of a rat is a pear

6:28

shape, you know what I mean, guessticker towards

6:30

the back. That's just that's universally

6:32

accepted. So I think that rat lore

6:34

is about Big Butler for sure.

6:36

That's right. Well, Miles, we are thrilled

6:38

to be joined in our third seat

6:41

by one of our favorite guests, one

6:43

of our most chaotic guests

6:45

one. He's a brilliant comedian.

6:48

He's a writer, he's an actor. It's brought

6:50

you comedy albums such as the Blake album

6:52

Stuffed Boy Live from the Pandemic.

6:55

I'm choking up a little bit, twelve years

6:57

of voicemails from Todd Glass to Blake

6:59

wex He's one of those two people.

7:02

His new special Daddy Lung Legs is

7:05

a triumph, a hilarious

7:07

triumph. Go watch it right now on YouTube. Please,

7:09

welcome to the show. The hilarious,

7:12

the chaotic, the riding a recumbent

7:14

bicycle in short shorts. He's Blake

7:16

Wexland.

7:20

This is Blake Wexler aka save

7:23

Zitegeist. Blake will

7:25

be the host at dawn. I'm coming for

7:28

Miles tomorrow. He will be

7:30

gone save Sitegeist.

7:34

That was from nobody wants to work any More?

7:36

Let me just say that. And then also that was from

7:39

Liz from Lancaster.

7:41

Inspired by Liz gave me a save

7:43

Zeitgeist, and then I added in the part

7:46

form taking out Miles, but the rest of it

7:48

was from Lizz, So thank.

7:49

You Liz from Lancas Blake Aster

7:51

PA, Lancaster, England.

7:54

No, Lancaster, pais Lankster

7:58

Blankster it's actually pronounced.

8:00

Is that is that Amish country? It

8:02

is? It is Amish country. That is country.

8:05

Yeah. Amazed

8:07

by their ability to write that, AKA, you

8:10

know, abusing.

8:12

Well, that's that's why I did it a cappella without

8:14

my normal, normal electric

8:16

guitar.

8:18

Out of respect.

8:22

Yeah, I mean you've you've told

8:24

us from day one that you are targeting

8:27

Miles. You're not here to make friends. Yeah,

8:29

you never take you never Miles down. Yeah.

8:32

True.

8:33

Yeah, I'm I normally I like an underdog,

8:35

which is what Miles is in this situation.

8:39

Side of insulting.

8:40

Also, I think an underdog about

8:43

without the media experience that Jack

8:45

has compiled over the years.

8:46

Trained media professional.

8:49

Yeah, got miles, he's got his back to the curve,

8:51

you.

8:51

Know what I mean. Other people root for an underdog,

8:53

I try and take them out.

8:58

Christie the governor gonna but exactly

9:02

Puppy to the gravel pit.

9:03

God, she must have told that

9:05

story so many times and had people just be

9:07

like hell, yeah, like you know

9:09

what's.

9:10

Wild though, I know, like, you know, obviously

9:12

we're looking like consuming way more political

9:14

news than like the regular person. But a lot

9:17

of I was talking to some friends and a few of them

9:19

had not heard this before.

9:20

Well they didn't know who she was.

9:22

I feel like, yeah, I know, it's like you have to really

9:24

and I get it. I don't know why. I'm like, you got to be a

9:26

real loser to really be have your

9:28

ear to what's happening in our own country.

9:31

But at the same time, like, but this is like

9:33

the funny ship, you know what I mean, Like she lies

9:36

and she's a potential puppy

9:38

cider. So anyway, it was fun telling

9:40

people that, watching the reactions on their faces.

9:42

Like my warm holiday treat, puppy

9:45

puppy one,

9:50

yes, only you

9:52

know requires like three to four puppies per batch,

9:54

so.

9:55

It's really good ones.

9:56

Yeah, you can water it down, but I'll notice you'll

9:58

notice deep stuff.

10:05

Pooch sloop.

10:07

Like poo soup.

10:11

Yeah, ye, I don't

10:13

know.

10:14

Don't call me out on my Did you just say

10:17

I'm the guest, I'm I'm the guest in your home.

10:19

I don't get Yeah,

10:22

that could be a T shirt? Should and it

10:25

is what.

10:27

Alone?

10:28

Yeah, I came.

10:29

Up with a T shirt.

10:30

A T shirt I don't think I can sell, but it's

10:33

gonna be. It says I'm a

10:35

dick head on it and next

10:38

to dick in real small type

10:40

it says to garn with a big

10:42

picture of Dick de Garon, the lawyer

10:44

for Robert Thurst in the trials.

10:47

And I think I can sell three of them.

10:49

Yeah, why do you talk? What

10:51

kind of fucking references

10:54

of all their dicks? More

10:56

like a cowboy hat?

10:58

That's the visual is quite fun, right,

11:01

Oh, maybe it should be a hat. It should

11:04

be a cowboy hat that says I'm a dick

11:06

to garon head, because hat goes

11:08

on your head and a picture of Garon on it. Maybe

11:10

not like one of those signatures like you would see on a baseball

11:13

card, fake ones.

11:14

I mean, yeah, to work shop.

11:17

Don't forget David Koresh too? And

11:22

do you do not forget about David? Never

11:25

forget about it?

11:25

Well, he never left, so I don't know why we forget

11:27

about him.

11:28

He's still here in a way.

11:30

All right, Blake, we're gonna get to know you a little

11:32

bit better in the moment. First, we're going to tell our listener to a couple

11:34

of things we might get to today

11:36

or we might not. Donald Trump is

11:38

on a begging tour in Washington, d

11:41

C. To have his charges overturned. These

11:44

are selony charges have turned

11:46

out to be a real thorn in that

11:48

guy.

11:49

Motivator.

11:50

Yeah, he's he's p o. It's

11:52

it seems like it's really getting to him. So we'll talk about

11:54

that. We'll talk about what

11:57

the right is signaling the next

12:00

rights that they're going to try to take away?

12:02

Is that why they're called the right because they like to take

12:05

away people's rights.

12:06

The next rights left of them? Not called the wrongs?

12:09

Wow, and now and think

12:11

about that, listener, Maybe

12:13

they should be called the wrong.

12:14

Hey, has Biden tapped you yet for his campaign?

12:18

He's been working on could use

12:20

your hell phone service.

12:22

So we'll

12:25

we'll we'll talk about just what what rights

12:28

they're going to take away next, because they've told us

12:30

via some Southern

12:32

Baptist convention they usually

12:34

is where they tip their hand a little bit. We'll

12:37

talk about Donald Trump shitting

12:39

on Milwaukee. Uh and North Dakota

12:42

just became the first state to approve an age

12:44

limit for politicians. Yeah,

12:47

which look at that.

12:49

And that, but

12:52

we like it. It's a start, I know, it really

12:54

is.

12:55

So we're gonna talk about that. What like how what

12:57

what stands in the way. Apparently

12:59

there's like seventy two percent popular

13:01

support for an age limit on

13:04

like the president, which makes sense,

13:06

like I had great, Yeah, it should

13:08

be like forty Poles have found the

13:10

majority of Americans think that both Biden

13:13

and Trump are tooled served. Only

13:15

eleven percent said neither

13:17

of them are, and then over

13:19

seventy Uh no, never mind. Anyways,

13:22

we'll talk. We'll talk about it. We'll get to the

13:24

hot ye gets that I'm holding

13:27

back. That's called a tease.

13:28

Baby. Yeah, God, I can't read, Baby

13:31

God, I can't.

13:31

Find the stat that I was looking for because

13:34

there's a lot of words and I'm sleepy.

13:37

Before we get to any of that, Blake,

13:39

what is something from your search

13:42

history that's revealing about who you are?

13:44

Search history? I didn't realize that this was

13:46

a this is a thing. But rodent men,

13:49

hot, rodent men.

13:50

We're talking about this, Yeah, talking about

13:53

did you?

13:54

Yeah?

13:54

So fucking move on, man, sometimes Okay.

13:57

My underrated oh

13:59

gold back Blake's Hot Takes aka

14:02

yesterday on TDZ Yesterday.

14:06

Geez you do, dude, just listen to the last episode

14:08

and the fucking steal that and come on

14:10

or something.

14:11

So I'm really trying to drive traffic all

14:14

of Froster platform right now, and

14:17

it's bad marketing what you're doing.

14:18

What's your feeling on what's your feeling on rat

14:20

boys?

14:21

I think whatever you guys

14:23

said yesterday was a great that's the right way

14:25

to think about it. I obviously,

14:28

I think it's an incredibly insulting

14:30

way of speaking about someone

14:33

while they're hot, right while

14:36

also saying they're hot and also being wrong about

14:38

that because they're not hot. I would say most

14:40

of these guys that they're showing are objectively

14:42

really ugly people, but

14:46

I don't like saying that.

14:47

So you don't like bringing being mean to these

14:49

guys who you judge to be objectively

14:52

really ugly.

14:53

Yes, leave them in a dark hot, leave

14:56

them in the shadows and let them be,

14:58

let them exist, And and yeah, it's

15:00

just it's it's not necessary.

15:02

Don't even really the name who creates

15:05

a fire? Who creates a fire in your

15:07

loins when you cast you?

15:08

Who's a hot guy for you?

15:10

Then? Yeah, just so I can kind of understand

15:12

where we're at here, that's.

15:13

What was the name of the actor who played monk oh

15:17

Tony Shalub, Tony Shaloup.

15:19

That's mine that they're not get

15:21

Come on now, be honest, I

15:24

would say that who's the hottest guy to

15:26

you?

15:27

Here's here's actually I will

15:29

say that in a moment. But okay, I

15:33

and I will and I will.

15:34

Get that politician answer, and I will

15:36

and I will get First, I want to push back on the premise

15:38

of the question.

15:39

But first I want to talk about immigration,

15:42

So immigrant and

15:44

the last I want to talk about immigration. When I'm halfway

15:46

through that, I'll get back to the rat boys. So I

15:48

actually think the one the rodent man

15:50

alleged rodent mean from

15:53

the bearer, And I know we're talking a lot of

15:55

animals yes,

15:57

I think he's circumvented man

16:01

by Jacked. Yeah, I think

16:03

he's too like, you

16:05

know, to ripple to

16:07

be erode it exactly.

16:09

Yeah.

16:10

And then the guy that I think is like is

16:13

so good looking and charming, the

16:15

guy who's the lead in Dark

16:17

Matter right now. He's Australian. His

16:21

name is excapes me. But he's he's

16:24

great and I see he's he looks great with a beard,

16:26

he looks Joe Edgerton.

16:29

Wow.

16:31

You ever see his uh directorial

16:33

debut, The Gift.

16:35

No, and I won't.

16:36

Yeah, okay, that'll

16:38

change your oping.

16:41

That what you've brought.

16:42

It looks like a dog.

16:45

He was ugly a ship good

16:47

never mind, No, it's like written directed

16:49

by him. I believe stars him as

16:52

like the world's biggest creep.

16:54

It's really but it's good.

16:56

But if that's the only thing I saw of him, Oh

16:59

no, that's the one that I'm facing this off up.

17:00

I love. Yeah.

17:02

Have you seen his brother, Nash Edgerton. Don't

17:05

you dare a little dash and Nash.

17:07

Yeah, Dash Nash same

17:09

little nashy Edges Yeah?

17:12

Oh good, make the heart go yeah,

17:17

HATCHI Machi.

17:19

Fifty one my ass.

17:21

So you like okay, all right,

17:23

fifty one, what do you have? You asked that a request?

17:26

Would you please? Fifty one? Last?

17:28

Hey, fifty fifty one.

17:29

Yeah you've heard of sixty nine, but that's that's

17:32

not happening anymore. I want to be fifty one fifty.

17:35

I want to be fifty spoon

17:39

I'm being spooned and someone's putting a poxicle. All

17:41

right, this is not that kind of job. And this is this

17:43

is off is it is locker room

17:45

talk.

17:46

You know what it seems to be when you're on I thought.

17:48

You're help trying to drive traffic, not to drive

17:50

people away. I'm trying to drive them to the previous

17:52

episode.

17:54

Fifty is being spooned

17:56

while someone puts a popsicycle in around.

17:58

No, that's fifty one fifty. That's

18:01

cute, thank you.

18:04

I'm just picturing you being fifty one

18:06

by Joel Edgerton and it's like, really

18:09

nice. There's nothing like dark about it, to be honest

18:11

with me, both know.

18:12

I also I imagine him having like a paper towel

18:14

too, because paper.

18:15

Towel along beside that is the only dark thing.

18:18

The only dark thing is is

18:20

if there's just uh no, no, if

18:22

there's no, people, there's just popsicle

18:24

stuff coming out of the side.

18:26

Of your Yeah, and it's only one.

18:27

It gets weird and like Slay

18:30

sloppy.

18:30

It's like those sloppy mess cooking videos

18:32

on TikTok. You're like, this can't be about I

18:35

think it's about the mess.

18:36

Yeah.

18:37

I would actually just get an absorbent pillow

18:40

and put that under my face so Joel wouldn't

18:42

even have to deal with it, so he could just be in the

18:44

moment and then just let wait, who's

18:46

this for? Is it for Joel or is it for you?

18:49

I'm eating the popsicle popsicles for

18:51

me. I don't understand what's so complicated about this. It's called

18:53

fifty one.

18:54

I hope you're doing a lot of labor for someone.

18:56

Skull.

18:57

What is what's the under rated?

19:00

Underrated?

19:02

Shazam the app that tells

19:04

you what songs are playing? Okay, so recently

19:07

I use it daily and

19:09

I have such bad taste in music,

19:12

and I don't even know if it's bad taste. I think

19:14

I just don't have any

19:17

I don't know how to find music. And for

19:19

instance, whenever I literally

19:22

people fast forward, I hear through Mark

19:24

Marin's intros and WTF. Famously,

19:26

I don't do that. I love them, But I

19:28

in this show all fast forward.

19:30

You don't listen to the interviews, right.

19:31

No, no, I don't even I've never heard another voice

19:33

in the podcast except

19:36

a Joel Edgerton interview. But he

19:39

But I fast forward to the end of this so I

19:41

can hear Miles's music recommendations

19:43

or Dustin when Justin does them, because truly

19:45

I do know bit actually like I always

19:47

add those songs because I just don't find

19:51

music.

19:51

Well.

19:51

I used to do it when I was listening to music

19:53

in my car, like on the radio or whatever,

19:56

and make like a.

19:56

Note of it. So I guess it's been like fifteen

19:59

years I've been able.

20:00

Where are you shazaming things? You just like going

20:02

buy a car with its windows down?

20:04

Like that happened the other day. Really I did

20:06

that. Yeah, they were stuck at a stoplight and rolled

20:09

down your window. What is this? What is this?

20:10

What is this? Is this? Guy? Was this guy? It was?

20:12

It was a convertible, so you know, the music was good.

20:14

Yeah the other day

20:17

I have to I have to be a little quet but like

20:19

neighbor, it was it was yeah,

20:21

Loggins through

20:24

the wall. I could hear him blasting

20:27

music in my house. So

20:29

I held my phone up to the wall

20:31

shazam and I shazammed a

20:34

song his song through the wall, and

20:36

it was like a song by Portugal the Man. I'm like, I

20:38

fucking love this song. And I just started

20:41

listening to a ton of their music. And then I went to a

20:43

concert.

20:44

Oh really, Portal the

20:46

Man this show, Yeah,

20:49

yeah, they are shout out man.

20:52

I like, I bought a hat. I have a Portugal

20:54

the manhat.

20:55

I listened to them all the time, literally

20:57

because the zeitgeist oh

20:59

amazing, as they should it should exactly.

21:02

I mean, I I don't know why we're even mentioning that.

21:04

I mean, I feel like about the Empire weekend before

21:06

we started, obviously huge fans of the show.

21:08

Art the Man should bring us on stage,

21:11

like these two guys are real pieces of ship.

21:13

Sometimes the pot there was no reference

21:16

to anything.

21:16

Yeah, alright,

21:20

these two pigs, all right, get out of here, pig

21:23

grand generation.

21:25

What song was it?

21:27

You know?

21:27

What?

21:27

Do you know what something was? I wasn't paying attention.

21:29

What were you playing? The Man? Song

21:32

was that? Did you sho started?

21:35

It was modern? Modern?

21:38

That one that one I had heard of that was like the big one. It was

21:40

called Modern Jesus and then

21:43

red, yellow, purple blue probably

21:45

not the right colors. Waves all

21:47

from that one album. I was like really into it.

21:49

And then I saw them in Philly

21:52

whenever that was, and they were great.

21:54

So yeah, all

21:56

right, the tech industry

21:59

as off the rails is they have steered

22:01

our entire civilization over

22:03

the past ten years. They have yours.

22:07

Just they

22:10

and I am just reading this word for word from what Blake

22:12

wrote in.

22:12

The doc No no, no, no, no.

22:14

As much as they have fucked us with

22:16

this AI bullshit.

22:19

That doesn't sound like me, they

22:22

they've.

22:23

Bought themselves, Like I think I'm giving them

22:25

at least another four years

22:27

just because of Zam. Yeah, Shazam

22:29

and the bird Shazam that I can't stop

22:31

talking about is.

22:33

It's called Merlin.

22:34

Merlin, Merlin. It's brought to you

22:36

by I think Cornell University, and

22:40

right, yeah, is that what they're

22:42

called the Big Red?

22:43

I know all the Ivy League teams.

22:47

The Big Red.

22:48

Anyways, it's a great app. Shazam

22:50

is a great app. But you've

22:53

got five more years the tech industry

22:55

and then you need to dom

22:57

yeah, you need, you need enough. Another thing

22:59

that just solves a basic

23:01

human problem.

23:02

What about this? We can we can give custom names

23:04

to your farts.

23:06

If another three

23:08

months, another three months, alright, that'll buy you about

23:10

a week.

23:11

But I'm not gonna lie that will buy you a little bit.

23:13

That's but like they're really good,

23:19

really great part names. Uh, let's take

23:21

a quick break and we'll come back and hear what you think is

23:23

overrated? Blake, Okay, that's

23:25

not all right.

23:26

I'll be here Tri

23:29

City Dust double.

23:41

And we're back and Blake

23:45

mm hmm Wexler. What if something you think's overrated?

23:48

Jack?

23:48

I think and Miles I think something

23:51

that's overrated on QR

23:53

codes more tech talk

23:56

that's the name.

23:57

Oh I was going to give them another fifteen years

23:59

for how cool QR codes are? Were

24:02

you? Yeah? Man, I fucking

24:04

love QR codes. Yeah,

24:09

we're like sends you to a website that usually

24:12

doesn't load. Hells.

24:18

I love it when it comes on the TV screen and they're

24:20

like they expect me to get my phone out and scanning

24:22

in three seconds when it shows up.

24:25

Fuck you Yeah, Oh you can't read

24:27

QR codes like with your own brain? Oh

24:29

I can meet that I actually we're

24:31

good for you. For you that's one of my

24:34

uh extra languages

24:36

them.

24:37

Yeah, yeah, that's how interesting.

24:41

Wait, well, what's it? What's your beef with the QR code.

24:44

It's like we were just saying, I feel like they never

24:46

load. You need good internet

24:49

when you're using them where.

24:51

We don't have in America. I could see working

24:53

in Korea or Japan.

24:55

But yeah, it is true,

24:57

objected measurably. We do not have the best.

24:59

No.

25:00

It sucks, shit, it's crazy,

25:02

it's insane. And often the cool spots

25:04

that I go to they're underground, you know.

25:06

They're like, yeah, you need to find hot spots, bro, not

25:09

cool. You gotta find an Internet

25:11

window. And uh there's

25:13

also I don't like how they leave the fucking windows

25:15

open on your browser where I'll

25:18

go look for my recent Google search

25:20

for this show and it's like, oh, here's eighty

25:23

menus. Right, it's

25:25

crazy from you at an airport.

25:27

Yeah yeah yeah. And now yet, like you said,

25:29

they're on commercials, they're everywhere. The thing

25:32

that I really don't understand, like sometimes I

25:34

get it, like if it's like in a fixed

25:36

position and you want a lot more information,

25:39

you can scan it like I've definitely done that before,

25:41

but like the way they definitely try and just like on

25:44

commercials try and do it or like TV broadcasts,

25:46

I'm like, y'all, I get that a lot

25:48

of people probably are holding their phones,

25:51

but the amount of time that the ship

25:53

is up there, it's like no one's pausing the TV.

25:55

It doesn't fo scan it. And that's where

25:57

you're like, are they I mean the thing, QR

25:59

codes have been for a long time, man,

26:01

so it's way longer than we think. Shit. Yeah,

26:03

yeah, I.

26:04

Think a guy that was working at a Toyota plant

26:06

invented QR codes. Well

26:09

time's up. Yeah, that's what I have to say. At

26:11

times it's been too long, it's time to take them

26:13

out. I like to color over them in sharpie

26:15

so people can't use them.

26:17

I feel like I've seen it, like one of those conspiracy

26:20

theory cars you know that has like weird

26:22

conspiracies written all over them. Yeah. Yeah,

26:24

I think I've seen one of those with QR codes

26:26

driving around LA, like.

26:28

A hand painted one or like no no.

26:30

I think they like printed it off the internet

26:33

and thank god, put some effort

26:35

in your conspiracy theory cars.

26:37

That would that would be funny is if they're

26:39

like, listen, I don't like what bumper

26:41

stickers do the esthetics of my cars. So I

26:44

think we can actually condense it into

26:46

one single all my QR into

26:49

one QR code, and this car

26:51

we believe Q is readying the

26:53

storm. You're like, oh, fuck, yeah,

26:56

there it is. I shouldn't stand.

26:57

It all right. Well,

26:59

speaking of Q, the man himself,

27:02

Donald Trump has gone on a

27:04

bit of a begging tour in watching DC

27:06

to have his charges overturned.

27:08

Yeah, dude, Yeah, he's visiting

27:11

the on Thursday, visited the fucking

27:13

Capitol, which is a WoT. I'm like,

27:15

when was the last time he was there?

27:17

January sixth Maybe he

27:19

wasn't there when he was president, when he lived

27:21

there.

27:22

Yeah, well when it was so

27:24

he was he was still there. I

27:26

mean, I don't know. He's there, I guess right

27:28

now, officially under the guise of discussing

27:30

his twenty twenty five agenda with the Republicans,

27:33

but that's basically just a cover for Speaker

27:35

Mike Johnson. That Speaker Mike Johnson

27:37

came up with for the official invitation,

27:40

But really he's trying to convince Republicans

27:42

in the House and Senate that they can

27:45

and should help him get

27:47

out of his legal troubles. So this

27:49

second he was convicted in New York, he

27:51

was basically on the phone with Speaker of the House,

27:54

Mike god has front row seats

27:56

at my jerk off shows Johnson, Yeah,

27:59

to get him to do something. And

28:01

Johnson was willing to entertain this terrible

28:03

idea because he thinks he knows the law

28:05

but clearly doesn't obviously, as exemplified

28:08

by all the not real legal theories that he thought

28:10

could form the basis for overturning the election.

28:13

Four years ago.

28:14

But the army of boot throwers

28:17

think that they can go after

28:19

Alvin Bragg and Fannie Willis to help

28:21

Trump. But these are all just fantasies

28:24

because Democratic Senate, where

28:26

even if they get out of the House, they're gonna be like, yeah,

28:28

get the shut the fuck up with this one.

28:30

I could see the Democrats finding a way to fuck it up

28:32

though, Oh

28:35

well, we got both sides this.

28:36

One, and we're like, we do like young Thug

28:38

and we're not really into the rico charges he's facing

28:41

down there on Fulham Council. Just on Thug's

28:43

behalf you know what I mean, But

28:45

yeah, they've tried this dumb shit before,

28:47

and like all it does is like waste

28:50

time. But yeah, no matter how much mining

28:52

Trump's gonna do or has done, it

28:54

might not get more than just rhetorical support

28:57

because the margins are too slim. In the House. There's

28:59

already p being like, I don't know if I can campaign

29:01

on like vote for me so I can try

29:04

and find a way to get these felony

29:06

convictions to go away in New York and

29:09

not everyone's in on it. So and

29:11

like it's funny, like you know, in political interviews

29:13

people on the Hill, there's always like a Republican

29:16

senator who asked for anonymity

29:18

who like says the same thing where they're like, you

29:21

know, my colleagues are saying that accusing the

29:23

Democrats are weaponizing the justice system.

29:25

I mean, if we're doing I mean, wouldn't we just be

29:27

doing the exact same No, it's a it's

29:29

a bunch of gobbledygook. So

29:32

yeah, I don't know, I don't. I mean he's trying,

29:35

but not sure where

29:37

the will or the you know, the

29:40

mechanisms to make that happen will.

29:42

Yeah, Actually it takes a place in time for it. It

29:44

makes sense to me that this is like a big

29:46

deal for him. Like the more distance we've gotten

29:49

from it, Like at first, I was like, he'll probably

29:51

just like bounce back from this or like just ignore

29:53

it and it'll be a slap on the wrist

29:55

or something. But there are some early

29:57

indications it's like dinged him a little bit, and polls

29:59

like, probably not as much as some people were

30:01

hoping, but some voters do seem

30:04

to be a

30:06

little bit put off by the fact that he's now

30:08

convicted fell In. And I feel

30:10

like the thing that's hurting

30:13

him is that his

30:15

brand is corruption, but

30:17

it's like being good at it, you

30:20

know, like it right, Like remember

30:22

in twenty sixteen during the

30:24

election where he would play, yeah,

30:27

why are you paying taxes? Because I'm smart, that's

30:29

why. Because yeah, his

30:31

whole thing is that he's good

30:34

at being corrupt, and like that's what

30:36

makes him smart. And then he just

30:38

like got caught doing

30:40

like the most low level criminal bullshit,

30:43

like like and all the scum

30:46

bag yeah, just rich scumbag, like

30:48

total bullshit, you know, Michael

30:50

Cohen, like all the things

30:53

were there, Like he's like he's a liar, he's terrible.

30:55

He's it's like, yeah, well he was working for

30:57

you, Like that's you're supposed

30:59

to be like this slick, corrupt business

31:01

man and you had this dufis

31:04

working for you, So like that reflects

31:07

poorly on you. And

31:09

like when he's not staying

31:11

one step ahead of the cops, it

31:14

really is deflating to

31:16

this mythos that he had like built up

31:19

just by being a very

31:22

consistent liar that

31:25

was able to just like hammer away with all

31:27

the money that he you know, had

31:29

and until people would just not

31:32

want to deal with the pain, right, And so it

31:35

feels like if I am pulling

31:37

for someone who is, like I suspect is corrupt,

31:40

but I'm like, yeah, but he's smart and like he gets

31:42

the job done. And then he gets caught

31:44

doing some dumb bullshit like this, like

31:47

that, I can see where that would

31:49

be massively deflating. And then having

31:51

him like continue to whine and like winge

31:54

like like this, Like I feel like

31:56

it could be at least temporarily

31:59

like like that. Uh, when that Macy's

32:01

Day float got impaled by the light pole

32:03

and just like deflated in three

32:06

seconds, right right right, Yeah.

32:08

It's embarrassing too, because he's always been

32:10

such a line jumper, you know,

32:13

like he always gets to the front of the line, Yeah,

32:15

with through no skill generally generally

32:17

money talking and deceit you

32:19

know, so maybe that is a skill. He is skillfully

32:22

deceitful. But now he's

32:25

not at the front of the line anymore,

32:28

and he can't even make calls,

32:31

you know, like he actually had to bring his ass

32:33

to Washington, which is so embarrassing,

32:36

Like the guy. The guy doesn't want to be in Washington

32:38

ever, and he can't even like be, oh, can I

32:40

make some calls or can someone go in my place?

32:43

He actually has to go in person and

32:45

talk to this ass.

32:46

I mean, no, it's true.

32:47

I think that is an indication, right, because usually

32:50

people would flock tomor a lago to fucking

32:53

you know, sniff his dandriff and be like exactly

32:55

you lord. But the fact that he has

32:58

like the summoning or I'm clearly

33:00

clearly for him whether or not they are going or not.

33:02

He's like me just streaming about it

33:04

isn't enough. I need to get in their fucking faces

33:06

and beg them or you know, tell them

33:09

what I need or whatever. But it I

33:11

mean, the Republican Senate is like,

33:13

like, you know, some people aren't even bothering to meet with

33:15

him, So yeah, I get

33:17

what you mean. Like and when like you're saying, Jack, when

33:20

people are used to seeing you one way and suddenly

33:22

that shifts, like it does make shit. Well

33:24

it's like, I mean, this is sort of a terrible

33:26

example, but like even like with the Drake Kendrick beef,

33:29

like Drake was on on top and Kendrick

33:31

made him look dumb, and

33:33

everyone's sort of like I kind of look at him

33:36

a lot different now because and

33:38

it's just sort of like, yeah, when your brand is one way,

33:40

all it takes, like damn, Dode, you got smacked like that in

33:43

public. Yeah, usually he blocks

33:45

it or ducts it.

33:46

But he really think about that one in the mouth. When

33:48

you think about how he was during the trial.

33:50

He was like so like above it and

33:52

like yeah, this is like beneath me bullshit,

33:55

and like that is just

33:58

it. It was assuming and

34:00

like projecting like this is who I am. I'm

34:02

going to continue to be this unflappable

34:06

teflon, Like I mean they called him the Teflon Dawn

34:08

and like and then so when

34:10

that just like that unflappable,

34:13

like falling asleep in court,

34:16

farting yourself awake, thinking

34:18

sorry, think it? What your fine?

34:20

Tuning a new app that would custom name

34:22

the Farts.

34:23

Dude being startled by

34:25

a bullfrog that happened to be nearby.

34:29

But like that, it just

34:31

makes him look stupid, Like the thing that he

34:34

always that has always made him to those

34:36

people look kind of tough

34:38

and in charge, ends up making him

34:40

look stupid. So I

34:43

hate to see it. You do hate to see it. We're

34:46

just pulling for him to make a comeback and everything

34:48

to be all right in his world. We're

34:51

just praying for him.

34:52

Yeah.

34:52

And speaking of prayer, I

34:54

bet a lot of prayers for Donald Trump

34:57

were coming out of the Southern Baptist Convention.

35:00

Man, doesn't that sound like a fun thing to go to? Yeah,

35:02

dude, I couldn't get in this.

35:05

Yeah yeah.

35:06

The aftermarket, Yeah dude, were

35:08

in the thousands and I only sit in the front.

35:12

So, uh, you know what the cross

35:14

fifty yard lines those

35:17

are my seats season tickets.

35:20

Sprint when they put the microphone

35:22

up for audience questions, I sprint

35:24

to that, like.

35:27

Just dive for it. But yeah, so

35:29

so many of the terrible policies that come from the

35:31

GOP have basically been telegraphed

35:34

either through like what the evangelicals

35:36

are angry about or what the online

35:38

weirdos make their like main stories on their

35:41

like web streams and ship And there

35:43

are two new ish developments because

35:45

we have sort of talked about this before, but these

35:47

things are starting to get a lot more traction. So first,

35:50

the Southern Baptist Convention aka the largest

35:52

and most powerful Protestant group in the nation,

35:55

has officially come out their position is to

35:57

oppose IVF and

36:00

this again has been something that has been

36:02

talked about on the fringes more and more and more. And

36:04

we saw the bills in the South where they're like, no, we got

36:06

to protect these popsicles

36:09

and from death. And

36:11

it is now Blake's mouth, that.

36:16

Is your weird kink. That was the type of popsicle

36:19

that it was.

36:20

And I don't talk about that publicly, but yes, you.

36:23

You're gonna be on libs of TikTok if

36:25

you said some ship like that about how you're like, this

36:27

fucking freak goes to

36:29

bed. His fantasy is to be spooned

36:31

by Joel Edgerton while sucking down

36:33

a frozen embryo.

36:35

No, who books that, by the way, who books

36:37

libs of TikTok?

36:37

Because I have been. But

36:42

yeah, so again, you know, the belief here

36:44

is that IVF involves multiple embryos

36:47

and so them being destroyed based

36:49

on the basis of viability they're talking about, then

36:51

you're you're killing the babies. So they got to save

36:53

the babies. They did call for the

36:55

adopt you.

36:56

Worrying about less about what's viable and

36:58

more about reading the biable.

37:02

I tried that at the Yeah, they kicked

37:04

you out. They knew, they knew from your tortoise shell

37:07

glass frames that you were not one of them.

37:09

You guys see the Vampire weekend concert

37:13

here Vampire.

37:15

Yeah, I mean should I do on the weekend is

37:17

praise fucking Christ.

37:22

So they did call for again

37:24

the adoption of frozen embryos so

37:27

that they may be saved. But like, let's be real,

37:29

like these fucking people don't give a fuck

37:31

about any actual babies, or they would be screaming

37:34

for better social services for children

37:36

and like improving the adoption and foster care

37:39

system. So nice, yeah, we get it. You had

37:41

to just say that to pretend to be not fully you

37:43

know, deeming people.

37:44

And part of me was like, oh no, this is going

37:47

to be a huge deal for all those like

37:50

fundamentalist Baptist Christian

37:52

IVF centers. But on the other

37:55

hand, look what they've been able to do for

37:57

reproductive take away people's reproductive

37:59

right over the long run elsewhere.

38:02

So yeah, which is wild because

38:04

it's something that helps people, you know, be

38:06

able to become pregnant. But yeah, yeah,

38:09

they have to figure out how to just basically,

38:12

you know, start they're all at war on people's

38:15

freedom, especially to like marginalize

38:17

and you know, take away any power

38:19

that women may have gained over the last century. I'm

38:22

so worried about.

38:23

The population going down, but they're

38:26

also like against people being

38:28

able top procreate in some case the white population.

38:30

Yeah, yeah, they're they're popular population

38:33

that comes directly from this.

38:34

Well it depends too, because there's that version

38:36

and then there's like the hyper capitalist you

38:38

know, Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos

38:41

fantasy version of the population going down, which

38:43

is more like a workforce. And also this

38:45

like weird Caveman way, if.

38:47

We have confirmation on that Wall Street Journal report

38:49

that he was just like fucking interns

38:51

at SpaceX and being

38:53

like, oh, well, you know you should have my baby

38:56

because i'm a high IQ.

38:58

Well he's got eleven kids, are you

39:00

know what I mean? Like, and he talks you

39:02

know that he's he's like he talked to that

39:04

one dude, Like he's all into fucking trying

39:06

to be the next fucking what's his name,

39:09

Yeah, Genghis Khan basically. But anyway,

39:12

the other thing that we're seeing more is

39:14

more conservatives embracing the idea of getting

39:16

rid of no fault divorces. We talked about

39:18

this when we talked like last

39:21

year about the first crow magnet man

39:23

to get a podcast, Stephen Crowder, when

39:25

he was like embroiled in a divorce where

39:27

there were like receipts in four k

39:30

of him being an abusive, shitty husband, and

39:32

he began railing against no fault

39:34

divorces, and we're like, oh, I wonder if this is

39:37

going to be a thing. Well, it's starting to be more

39:39

of a thing. So prior to nineteen sixty nine,

39:41

if you wanted a divorce, you had to

39:43

go to a judge to prove that the other party

39:45

engaged in abandonment, adultery,

39:47

or cruelty, and this led to like traumatic,

39:50

drawn out divorce trials or typically the party

39:52

that had more money for legal maneuvering would

39:54

win. And in some cases judges wouldn't even

39:56

intervene an instances of abuse. So it

39:59

was a fucking, full fucking system. Supporters

40:02

of this regressive move say

40:04

that quote making divorce too easy

40:06

causes social upheaval, unfettered

40:09

dishonesty, lawlessness,

40:11

violence towards women, war

40:14

on men, and expendability

40:16

of children war on

40:19

men, which

40:22

is I don't think it,

40:24

I'm sorry. No fault divorces actually

40:26

put like helps to bring down rates

40:29

of violence towards women.

40:30

Yes, of course, that's like one of the

40:32

main reasons it was created.

40:34

You're not stuck in an abusive relationship.

40:36

It also prevents men from having like insurmountable

40:39

power, like an insurmountable power dynamic

40:41

with their wives. It reduces like

40:44

when these bills were first passed in the

40:46

late sixties seventies, it like suicide

40:49

rates for women started going down. Look, you can go on

40:51

and on about why there's no reason to get

40:53

rid of no fault divorce, but state

40:55

Republican parties are bringing this

40:57

policy shift into their own platform, so

41:00

Home of State Senator Dusty Divers

41:03

introduced a bill. Yeah

41:05

waiting what Yeah, Dusty

41:07

Devers, Dusty Divers,

41:10

that's if you just switch the d's for

41:13

bees, you'd have a weird ass like beavers.

41:16

Now, now you're talking my language, busty

41:22

beavers, talking about beavers,

41:25

and they got that thick ass too. Come

41:27

on, I don't see the New York Times riding

41:29

about busty beavers.

41:30

Huh. Maybe there he had.

41:32

He introduced a bill to the states like

41:34

for their own version of a no fault divorce.

41:36

The Texican Texas Republican Party

41:39

at like put a call to end the practice

41:41

on their twenty twenty two platform, so

41:44

it may come up again this year. JD.

41:46

Vance and House Speaker Mike Johnson

41:49

have also spoken in favor of tightening

41:51

divorce laws.

41:51

So, like, the terror.

41:53

Campaign to bring back conservative

41:55

values and basically go back

41:57

to the eighteenth century is

42:00

in full swing. It has not gone away. But

42:02

you know, like we talked about in yesterday's trending episode,

42:05

a bit of good news because of Supreme Court actually

42:08

was like, no, you know what, We're gonna do

42:10

the unthinkable and

42:12

h tear this anti abortion lawsuit a new

42:15

one and you know, slat form.

42:16

Now you can.

42:18

But based on what they said, they're like you're gonna

42:20

have like they're basically saying like you need a new angle here

42:23

because so

42:26

yeah, I think they're feeling emboldened. But again,

42:28

just like we've seen with these other these other policy

42:31

moves to try and like restrict body

42:34

autonomy and healthcare access, it is

42:36

wildly unpopular and it's only gonna less to lead

42:38

to more messy and chaotic shit. But this

42:41

is their marching orders are coming

42:43

from on high, so I guess this is where they're going.

42:46

This is one of those things that are like a no fault

42:49

divorce is one of those things that like its name

42:52

doesn't show how how

42:54

important or how scary the alternative's

42:58

named things, you know, where it should be like oh,

43:00

like like the Divorce Equality

43:02

Act or something would be.

43:03

But yeah, yeah, you know, because no

43:05

marriage it's like yeah, yeah, well was it

43:07

wasn't my.

43:08

Fault, you know, like it's just so like

43:11

takes the venom out of like you said,

43:13

these horrific, abusive cases where

43:15

women couldn't get divorces before.

43:17

Yells a shame too. We

43:19

were talking yesterday's episode about

43:22

the Alito Like the tape

43:24

of Alito's wife where she's

43:26

she is talking like fantasizing

43:29

about putting up a flag that just says

43:31

shame to like, yeah,

43:33

to get into a flag war with people

43:35

who have a pride flag. She's just

43:37

like, yeah, shame, we

43:41

got a flag that's a shame and it has flames.

43:43

Let me spell it for you. V E R

43:46

G O G n A. They're gone.

43:48

Yeah.

43:50

I like to make up little flags in my head.

43:53

Yeah, it's

43:55

Doctor Strange like that. Upon

43:57

rewatching Doctor Strangeler recently very

44:01

cultured, I was reading a New York article,

44:03

well, rewatching Doctor Strange's love.

44:05

Yeah.

44:05

The the reason like they ultimately

44:08

decide to end the world is

44:10

because they like seize on the idea of like,

44:12

well we could have like a little cave where

44:14

like the men just repopulate the globe

44:17

and like that. They're like that gets

44:19

them going, and then they decide to ultimately

44:22

end it and like that feels like what

44:24

with this, Like, no, you can't

44:26

you can't use science to have a baby.

44:28

You gotta have a baby with sperm from

44:31

from me probably preferably.

44:34

Why was Keith Ranieri convicted?

44:36

That's the wife.

44:37

I want to I want to create a sex cult.

44:39

Why won't. They're all conservative

44:41

about it, feels like, you know, well,

44:43

and it's all to basically be like there is only

44:46

one way that's heterosexual marriage,

44:48

that creates people, and there's

44:50

nothing else. So yeah,

44:52

I mean, yeah, this is what they're

44:54

spending all their time on because the policy

44:57

is not even like the no real policy there

44:59

only look looking for the dissolution

45:01

of rights. This pretty much the only

45:03

thing they're running on these days. I guess if

45:06

maybe increased rights

45:08

for billionaires or tax dodging corporations,

45:10

I think those are the two groups. Yeah,

45:12

they're focusing on.

45:13

Yeah, and having like billionaire wealth

45:16

that makes that create and like

45:18

libertarianism that creates the

45:20

conditions where you can have a

45:22

cave where you're trying to repopulate,

45:25

you know, a nice cave, Yeah, a nice

45:27

cave.

45:27

Yeah.

45:28

All right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right

45:30

back.

45:41

Dusty Deepers, that's crazy.

45:45

Hand or back. I just didn't include

45:47

that.

45:48

You just remembering that? No, I

45:50

just read it again. I just

45:53

I just read Dusty, I saw it in print.

45:55

What's the problem Where I heard you say Dusty

45:57

divers and that I read it in the show

45:59

run Yeah.

46:01

It stopped me dead in my

46:03

tracks. As I was going through the show run down,

46:05

I was I couldn't stop.

46:07

I get Yeah, I just sat there looking

46:10

at it with my mouth.

46:11

Having a fucking sex bomb. Dude, Dusty

46:14

Deavers is yeah, I know, you said, Joel Edgerton.

46:16

Dusty Devers is my Dusty,

46:20

Dusty Dusty, take away

46:22

all of my rights please, a big professor.

46:27

Wait what yeh?

46:30

Yeah, yeah, I don't know, just

46:32

saying what do you want? You want? Uh?

46:34

North Dakota just became the first state to approve

46:36

an age limit for politicians. Age

46:39

limit for politicians seeming to be an

46:41

idea that is having a moment

46:43

for for some reason. We

46:46

don't we don't know why. We don't

46:48

know.

46:49

I don't know what you mean. Like it's

46:51

been fine for Supreme Court justices, senators.

46:55

Yeah, remember now suppressions as

46:57

old as possible older

47:01

older aap as.

47:03

Old as pot No, that's not that's not

47:05

how words work anyway, aoap

47:09

aoap rocky. Uh So. North

47:11

Dakota voters just approved a ballot measure

47:14

barring congressional candidates who

47:16

would turn eighty one by

47:19

the end of the year. Before their term would expire.

47:22

Wait a fucking

47:24

the trap door down on eighty one

47:27

is so fucking old and

47:29

yet and yet it would

47:32

uh disqualify I.

47:33

Think both of our current presidential

47:36

candidates. Trump's seventy seven, so

47:38

no he has time year, Biden's

47:41

eighty one, Biden's eighty one.

47:43

But Trump, this would be the year at the end

47:45

of the year before their term.

47:48

Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.

47:50

Trump would be like right making it maybe

47:52

right under the wire or might be disqualified.

47:55

It was supported by sixty

47:57

one percent of the voters. It

48:00

won't affect any of the state's current

48:02

congressional delegation because they're all under

48:04

the age of seventy. But the

48:07

move is historic.

48:09

This is going to be the first state to set an age

48:11

limit for US Senate and House candidates.

48:14

It will likely face a Supreme

48:16

Court legal challenge. A

48:18

similar amendment was shot down in nineteen

48:21

ninety five because the Court ruled that states

48:23

cannot set qualifications for Congress

48:25

beyond those listed in the US Constitution.

48:28

You could probably hear that I was making the jerkoff handmotion

48:31

while reading that confirmed

48:33

but lawmakers have already

48:35

earmarked one million dollars in state funds

48:38

to defend the measure in court. So

48:40

they were like, we're passing this law

48:43

because we know it's going to the Supreme Court and

48:45

we want to fight for our ability

48:47

to do this. So they have one million dollars in legal

48:49

funds basically to you know, construct

48:52

an argument and you know, learn

48:54

from what didn't work in nineteen ninety

48:57

four the one thing that did

48:59

work in nine before when when it

49:01

went to the Supreme Court last time, the person

49:03

who I guess it was ninety five person

49:05

who wrote the dissenting opinion and

49:08

who was in favor of the age

49:10

restrictions was Clarence

49:12

Thomas.

49:16

Well, we'll see if you know, being

49:18

incredibly old as fuck, will have

49:20

changed his opinion on this. But

49:23

I don't know.

49:24

I mean, he's seventy five, man, He's a spry

49:26

seventy five, so he gets agile.

49:29

He's like, I'm good, man, I'm good as long as I have

49:31

my little r V I

49:33

can play around with and whatever.

49:35

Oh my god, I wish

49:37

he wrote an RV like off Roaded,

49:40

like John Madden. Yeah, yeah,

49:43

oh, I was thinking of to

49:45

Fly.

49:46

I was thinking of a TV.

49:48

Just like like he would

49:50

be five feet.

49:52

And it would just roll over on him and break

49:54

everybody in his body.

49:55

His robe gets caught in one of the ship

49:59

Claire, I told you not to wear your robe.

50:02

I like it.

50:02

Don't tell me my business, devil woman. But

50:07

this could be read as just a symbolic

50:09

gesture. Coming so

50:11

soon after Mitch McConnell's brain shut down

50:14

on live TV and Diane

50:16

Feinstein died in office

50:18

at the age of ninety, that was

50:21

one of those things that, like, when it was happening, I

50:23

don't think my brain had fully appreciated that she

50:25

was ninety.

50:26

I think because regardless of the numerical

50:28

age, just visually it was so clear

50:31

that this human body should

50:33

be just be at rest at home, like

50:36

not trying to like hear, like

50:38

be it a fucking judicial confirmation

50:40

hearing and asking pointed questions.

50:43

It's just a good thing that she didn't get through

50:45

that provision in her will that

50:48

she'd be weekended at Bernie's for the

50:50

remainder of her term, because that would have been

50:52

distasteful.

50:53

I think, well, that's where the

50:56

abuse of a corpse laws ended

50:58

up sort of overriding.

50:59

Her own will and saving us from anyway.

51:02

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

51:03

Also, what difference, would it really need is

51:07

actually happening right when she was

51:10

it's oh god, yeah.

51:12

We're hoping that this inspires other states

51:14

to follow suit, which wouldn't be surprising

51:16

considering the idea of imposing maximum

51:19

age limits for elected officials is

51:22

supported by seventy nine

51:25

percent of Americans.

51:26

That's how you know it'll never happen.

51:29

Seventy nine percent. Yep,

51:32

that's just like a fucking slam

51:34

dunk. Like any politician, like

51:37

in a just system, would

51:40

be like, oh, I'm gonna make this my thing, Like

51:42

this is going to be I'm gonna just like ride this

51:44

to office. And then you get to office

51:46

and you just have like a bunch of elderly

51:48

people who want to kill you and destroy your

51:51

career because you're coming for them.

51:53

But you know, there is the

51:55

issue that you know people are gonna be like age

51:57

discrimination. Age discriminate

52:00

in the workplace is obviously not okay,

52:03

but there are age restrictions on other

52:06

First of all, on the other end of the spectrum when

52:08

it comes to like elected officials, you know,

52:10

you can't be under thirty five and

52:12

be president, or under twenty

52:14

five and be in the House, or thirty

52:17

in the Senate. And there's also

52:19

age maximums in

52:22

flying, like in aviation.

52:24

In the aviation industry, airline pilots,

52:27

commercial pilots aren't allowed to work past

52:29

the age of sixty five. But

52:31

that's, of course, because that's a very taxing,

52:33

exhausting job that requires intense

52:36

concentration in people's lives hang in the

52:38

balance. So nothing like being

52:40

president.

52:41

No, no, yeah, the

52:43

presidents are on the ground, famously on the

52:45

ground, except for when they're in a plane.

52:48

Do you think they what if they just like, let Joe

52:50

Biden fly or force one, because you know,

52:53

he proviosly asks for it, who's

52:55

to say he hasn't.

52:56

They probably just set up like a video game

52:58

joystick from the nineties and just be

53:00

like, yeah, sir, you can do it right here from your recliner.

53:02

Man, here you go. Don't get too whacky now,

53:05

a lot of people on board, all right, captain,

53:08

thank you.

53:10

In twenty fifteen, France considered

53:12

instituting a law that would banned politicians over

53:14

seventy from holding office.

53:16

I mean, I think you know, the the real

53:18

argument here is about the weight of

53:20

the decisions these people make that they

53:23

potentially don't have to live with like

53:25

the fallout from these decisions, like

53:27

especially when as it relates to the climate

53:30

and shit like that, when you have people who

53:32

already got fucking fucking both

53:34

legs in the grave. Yeah, like are

53:37

just being like, yeah, man, I don't fucking

53:39

doing anything to take care of with legs.

53:42

Yeah, of like Earth death, it's like yeah, because

53:44

you're you're fucking maybe gonna live ten

53:46

more years or some shit.

53:48

Well they're always cold anyway, so

53:50

you know they're they're fuck they're

53:52

cold as hell the blanket that comes

53:54

with them.

53:55

Yeah, I mean, in order to

53:57

be able to be traded from one sports

53:59

team to to another sports you need

54:01

to pass a physical. It's always

54:03

like, oh they've been traded pending a physical. There

54:06

has to be some way, some

54:08

physical a fucking president has

54:11

to pass. And I know it's not as easy

54:13

as like measuring you know, a meniscus or

54:15

something, but just mentally, there

54:17

has to be some sort of exercise that you can do that's

54:19

indicative of decision making ability.

54:21

And yeah, like yeah, invented

54:24

maybe ninety five percent over

54:27

the president, not van Buren.

54:28

They not van Buren. They do have physicals

54:31

that they're supposed to undergo or like make their medical

54:33

health records public. But that does

54:35

so.

54:35

Easy to but it doesn't bar

54:37

them from holding office, right, they're

54:40

just taken account.

54:43

Yeah yeah, but look at look at where we're at. We

54:45

have again a fucking a

54:47

mummy from World War One. Yeah,

54:50

up against this fucking other guy.

54:53

You can decide who's whos

54:55

and like it and a felon. It's like, yeah, these

54:57

are all kinds of things people should consider, but

55:00

it doesn't matter. But

55:02

God, I wish that that this should

55:04

be a standardized thing because especially

55:06

as it relates to the Supreme Court in all these other positions,

55:09

because we're allowing, yeah,

55:11

we're allowing this like kleptocracy to

55:13

just flourish

55:16

under the leadership of these people who really

55:18

they have no vested interest in anything sustainable.

55:21

And again we're gonna be left holding

55:23

the fucking mad Max bag in

55:25

like thirty years or I don't know however long

55:28

if it gets to that, I don't know, in the most cynical

55:30

version, but we're already seeing temper

55:33

like, look, the shit's changing, it's

55:35

happening right in front of our faces. And so it's

55:37

a bicker about like eighty one.

55:40

No, by the way, this isn't just a problem

55:43

in the US. So a decade ago, one

55:45

of the world's ten most populous countries

55:47

had a leader seventy year older. Today

55:49

they're eight. So

55:53

eight of the ten most

55:55

populous countries have leaders that are seventy

55:57

or older. Like, what the fuck happened

55:59

that ten years? Is it just they just

56:02

made it easier to like cheat,

56:04

to hold on to power.

56:06

I think that or just the idea of working.

56:09

Yeah, that's true. We all decided when we would

56:11

prefer yeah, avocado toast over

56:13

having power.

56:14

We quite quit world global leadership.

56:17

Yeah we worked from home, and then we stopped

56:19

working from anywhere. It turned into residenteeism

56:22

exactly. But I think really it's just about the

56:24

people who are still mentally gone

56:27

enough to think that these fucked

56:29

up policies we all live under are still

56:32

good or worth younger.

56:34

The sense

56:37

that they would be the ones who are

56:39

able to consolidate power.

56:40

Younger people, Yeah, they're.

56:41

Gonna be like, man, what the fuck is this?

56:43

I mean, not everybody, but a lot of younger

56:45

people like this is fucking bullshit,

56:48

And they all and all get

56:50

and and the problem is that people who have

56:52

the voting power or the people who are

56:55

even like processing this world are still

56:57

taking it through this very dated lens

56:59

about how these economic system should

57:01

work. So yeah, like, I mean it makes sense that,

57:04

like it's their swan song, because as

57:06

it gets younger and younger, were less

57:09

committed to upholding these fucked up

57:11

systems. Yeah, but again, I think

57:14

because of the nature of like white supremacy

57:16

and capitalism, they'll always find a way to maintain

57:18

you know, it's like a living organism. It will find a

57:21

way to defend itself. And I think right now

57:23

that's being expressed through you know,

57:25

keeping these really old fucking

57:28

zombie people in office and making

57:30

calling all the shots.

57:31

Yeah, capitalism's immune system

57:33

is fighting back. So

57:36

there are like globally the

57:39

legislatures have like houses

57:41

of Representatives and plays like that.

57:44

Parliaments is the word that I was looking

57:46

for. I have actually gotten slightly younger.

57:49

Reportedly, thirty percent of the world MPs

57:51

are under the age of forty five, according

57:54

to a twenty twenty one report. But

57:56

that is because explicitly

57:59

of age caps

58:01

and like legislation like this, So

58:04

stuff like this can.

58:04

Work, and people in those

58:07

countries seem to be happier.

58:10

Yeah, I don't know.

58:11

That's just like your opinion. Man, I want.

58:13

My grandpa who I want my grandpa who's bleeding

58:16

from the eyes to still run things,

58:18

you know, like Mitch McConnell, who

58:21

looked like he would like again that shit that

58:23

you want to see what a farragun hard reset

58:25

looks like a successful one. It's Mitch McConnell

58:27

when he's up there just being like.

58:31

To your point, there is an eye test to

58:34

it too, where it's like that I don't

58:36

know how old that person is. I don't know if they look

58:38

bad for sixty or if they look

58:41

correct for ninety. That person

58:43

cannot if you have to hold the door,

58:45

like if you're like worried, I first,

58:47

you can make it through a door, ever, unless

58:49

someone holds it for it's.

58:52

You need to hold our

58:54

president's elbow, like obviously

58:57

they're not gonna let it happen when

58:59

like in front of cameras. But if I were

59:02

walking up the steps with

59:04

him, I feel like I would want to hold his

59:06

elbow.

59:07

You would be an asshole. If you didn't, you would

59:09

be a bad person if you.

59:10

Like my wife would look at my wife would

59:12

look at.

59:13

Me and be like, oh, man, like don't let

59:15

him carry that briefcase. What do you do heavy?

59:18

He's trying to put in the overhead bin. Are you just

59:20

because you hated your grandfather? Doesn't whoa

59:23

babe? The way into this?

59:25

Not right now?

59:26

No, not whatever?

59:29

1:02:28

You have to see. It is so cute.

Jack and on our basketball podcast, Miles and Jack.

1:03:40

I'm at Boosties to where we're talking about

1:03:42

the NBA Finals. Oh

1:03:45

boy, that

1:03:48

was Wednesday. Yeah,

1:03:50

Mads in three. Still I'm still holding out for Masa.

1:03:52

Blake was on our finals preview

1:03:55

episode and just

1:03:57

say, hey, we nailed it.

1:03:59

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. I

1:04:01

mean because we were right. We were just like, it's probably Celtics

1:04:03

in four. But then we had to we had

1:04:05

to really start hitting the copium and it turned into

1:04:07

really hit or Celtics before were like, yeah, imagine

1:04:09

three, probably imagine side and I don't know, but

1:04:13

anyway, they just.

1:04:14

Don't got it.

1:04:14

Uh So let's see a tweet

1:04:16

that I like, oh, I don't know. So there's this

1:04:19

this woman on TikTok who's

1:04:21

using the N word and she started

1:04:24

using it like just sort of she was kind of like, oh,

1:04:26

well, now I'm going to launch my right wing career because

1:04:28

I lost my job doing it. And it was like this whole

1:04:30

thing that played out this week at Blackwood

1:04:33

be our black word. B l a q U E

1:04:35

w o r D tweeted, I was right

1:04:37

about that white woman who said the N word. By the way,

1:04:39

the neo Nazis are rejecting her for

1:04:41

being a psyop and not being white

1:04:44

enough. They're bullying her. She ruined her

1:04:46

life for the worst audience in the damn world worse

1:04:48

than the shade room comments. And if you if

1:04:50

you're on the shade room on Instagram, you know how

1:04:52

bad those comments are. So yeah,

1:04:55

it's yeah. You hate to see it when those those

1:04:57

racist rifts completely backfire on

1:04:59

you and you thought cancelation.

1:05:02

Yeah, tweet, I've been enjoying

1:05:04

Natty Winters. This would buy

1:05:06

you another ten weeks tech industry.

1:05:08

Natty Winter's at Utility Limb

1:05:10

tweeted, So I'm a first cyber truck

1:05:13

I r L And here's what I think. How

1:05:15

about a reverse next door so

1:05:17

we can report these to local vandals.

1:05:20

I think that's a really good idea.

1:05:23

Reverse next door.

1:05:24

I think I reverse next door for people

1:05:26

to get away with like.

1:05:27

Petty like, yeah, it's great,

1:05:30

it's dot com.

1:05:32

Yeah, run my neighborship dot com like

1:05:35

lawn furniture theft and you

1:05:37

1:05:43

1:05:46

What if they come for you? You know what

1:05:48

I mean?

1:05:48

1:05:51

it's for other they wouldn't. People
