your current optical and he earn it
1:29
was a lot of the. Why
1:43
they're humans. Welcome to the God Bar.
1:45
I'm here today with my son and
1:48
friend Jesus. Behold I stand at the
1:50
door and knock. If anyone here is
1:52
my voice and opens the door I
1:54
will come in to him and eat
1:57
with him. And he with me.
2:00
You will come into
2:02
him? Why
2:04
are you cringing like that? I'm
2:06
trying to inspire the people. I'm
2:10
sorry Jesus. This just sounds kind of funny when
2:12
you say I'm gonna come into you. Stop
2:15
twisting my words. You always twist my
2:17
words. Sorry Jesus,
2:19
you know. I like your
2:21
potty sense of humor. It's all good. It's all good.
2:25
How are you? God pod dad? God pod dad?
2:27
I don't know,
2:29
I'm just looking at your shirt. Oh
2:32
yeah. Have a Yahweh. Still holds up? It
2:35
looks great. I love it. Thanks.
2:37
I'm doing good. You know, it was
2:39
Mother's Day weekend and that was hard
2:41
for me because I don't have a
2:43
mother. Awwww.
2:47
Dad. I was
2:49
just abandoned in the universe. Awwww.
2:51
But you have family now. You have chosen
2:54
family. And me. I'm your son. I'm
2:57
your one. Yeah, that's true. You
2:59
should listen to the song Chosen Family by
3:01
Alton John and it features somebody else so
3:03
I can't remember at the moment. But
3:06
it's really hard learning. No, not Dua Lipa. It's
3:10
really good. I like that Dua Lipa. Chosen
3:12
family. Anyway, mine
3:14
was good. Yes, I did hang
3:16
out with Mother Mary and
3:19
we had a nice time. We went
3:21
to brunch. We
3:23
did bottomless mimosas and
3:27
she got a little buzzed and got a
3:29
little... Why are you cringing again? I'm
3:32
just kind of like... Oh, because I said
3:34
bottomless? Jealous. Jealous
3:36
that I didn't get to
3:38
go to brunch, you know? Well,
3:41
it's a day where sons and mothers,
3:43
sons and daughters and mothers get together.
3:47
And Joseph's. No, not even
3:49
Joseph's. He wasn't... Joseph wasn't there? He
3:52
wasn't invited. Doesn't that make you feel better? It's
3:54
Mother's Day. I'm never
3:56
really clear on who's the
3:58
father and who's the stepfather. I understand.
4:00
I mean, I don't want to... I feel
4:03
like I'm the step... I'm the father, and
4:05
Joseph is the father who stayed.
4:09
What's the answer? And raised you.
4:11
Why does he... Let me ask
4:13
you this. Why was Joseph not
4:16
there? Is there trouble in paradise? I'm
4:18
going to tell you there was, just so
4:20
you feel better about the day. So
4:23
like, is Mary available? Well, if
4:25
Joseph wasn't there, what was he
4:27
doing? Was he off golfing? Is that the
4:29
kind of dad he is? Yeah, he is
4:31
a very distant father. Like, I get to
4:33
spend time with you every week here on
4:35
the podcast, just for starters, which I love.
4:38
And yeah, Joseph actually, he has been
4:40
a little distant lately, and it's
4:43
kind of sad. Here's what I'll promise you right
4:45
now. I will spend Father's Day
4:47
with you and only you,
4:49
and I won't with
4:52
him. Whaaaat? You're lying. This
4:54
Father's Day will be all about you. Yep.
4:57
You're lying. I'm not lying. Stop.
4:59
No, no. Stop. You say
5:01
that to all your fathers. Well,
5:05
I just have way more fun with you
5:07
than I ever do with him. I
5:09
think... Oh, no, really.
5:12
Yeah. Sure, you say that to him
5:14
when you're woodworking. And
5:17
you've always been more supportive and
5:19
more entertaining and more chill. Now
5:22
I know that Joseph doesn't listen to
5:24
this podcast because you definitely wouldn't be
5:27
saying all this. Look,
5:30
I... As
5:32
for why he wasn't at Mother's Day, it's just...
5:34
I just wanted to have some one-on-one time. Yeah.
5:36
I want to have some one-on-one time with your
5:38
mom, too. God.
5:41
And right after Mother's Day, you have to say
5:43
that? Seems like, you know, she might
5:46
be available. Okay. Anyway... A little corny.
5:48
That's my... She's my... You
5:51
know, the one that got away. The
5:54
one that got away. By Katy
5:56
Perry. Uh, so that was
5:58
Mother's Day. I posted... on Mother's
6:01
Day quick Jesus and I
6:03
need ideas for gifts to get married for Mother's
6:06
Day any ideas even though I'm sure you had
6:08
a gift it was really just me you're
6:11
the gift that keeps on giving I'm the one
6:14
that forgot to get her anything
6:16
would you like to hear some suggestions from
6:18
the humans I would love to okay
6:21
here we go I
6:23
mean you can apologize for making her a mother at
6:25
12 yeah
6:29
her future was written in the stars in
6:31
that moment wasn't it that
6:35
that sounds really bad
6:37
hasn't aged well no no move
6:40
okay a paternity
6:42
test that
6:46
seems like more of a gift for you we did a
6:48
very early test on this podcast we
6:51
did and I did I was not happy
6:53
with the results I
6:55
don't honestly I don't trust Moses to
6:57
do science yeah I
6:59
would neither he probably you know he's
7:01
half blind he probably switched up the
7:04
vials that
7:06
seems very well we should do another paternity test
7:08
sometime we should that'd be
7:10
fun another idea for again these
7:13
are terrible suggestions for gifts by
7:15
the way okay what else what
7:17
else an apology to Joseph for
7:19
your adulterous impregnation of his wife
7:21
but again like that's
7:26
more of a gift for like
7:28
you or Joseph not so
7:31
much yeah Mary just show
7:33
of anistic ideas Bob
7:35
bodily autonomy and an excellent brunch okay
7:37
now there's a good one that's a
7:39
good one that's a good one nothing
7:43
says happy Mother's Day better than smashing
7:45
the patriarchy once and for all amen
7:48
that's a good one too yeah
7:50
thou shalt allow women
7:52
to decide what to do with
7:55
their bodies and decide if they
7:57
want to become a mother at all how about that mothers
8:00
day. It was weird
8:02
watching all these Republicans celebrate uh,
8:06
mothers day without
8:08
a shred of irony, Jesus. Yeah.
8:10
Don't forget mothers, we forced you all
8:12
to become mothers. You all now will
8:15
be mothers, whether you want to or
8:17
not. Yeah. And
8:19
um, it was, it's kind of like
8:21
watching a Republican celebrate Martin Luther King
8:23
Day. Yeah. True. And
8:26
it's like a Pride Month. Just kidding.
8:28
They don't do anything for that. Uh,
8:31
I bet we can find some who pretend to
8:33
support gay people. Yeah.
8:36
I bet you can't. Not anymore. Challenge
8:40
accepted. I'll keep an eye out in two weeks from now.
8:43
Total hypocrisy from
8:45
the right to the point
8:47
where Katie Britt, like
8:50
the day before the weekend, proposed
8:53
a federal database to get
8:55
data on pregnant people. I
8:57
did see that. How could
8:59
that possibly be seen
9:01
as a good idea? If you're a
9:03
Senator from Alabama, you're
9:05
a super duper evangelical
9:08
appealing to your handmade's
9:10
tail base, literally a
9:13
database in cyberspace
9:15
that tracks pregnant people. And they
9:17
say, and they're like, no, no, no, no. This is to
9:20
help you. This is to help. And uh, this
9:25
is all about helping moms. It's called the
9:27
moms act. And you know what? When
9:30
I read your article on sub stack about
9:32
it, I saw the moms act. I thought
9:34
you thought that up. The moms act. I
9:36
was like, oh, that's, that's good. That's really
9:38
funny. A lot of people
9:40
are confused by my latest satirical
9:42
offering Jesus, because they think it's
9:45
real. Now here's the real
9:47
headline. Okay. Katie
9:49
Britt proposes federal database to collect
9:51
data on pregnant people. This
9:53
is the guardian.com Republican
9:55
us Senator from Alabama, best known for
9:58
delivering widely ridiculed state of the. union
10:00
speech in March. Just
10:02
for a minute. Oh, that was good. Katie Bridget.
10:06
Uh, the Republican US Senator
10:08
from Alabama, Mark, best
10:10
known for being a moron, Mark the
10:12
run up to Mother's Day on Sunday by
10:15
introducing a bill, the creative federal database to
10:17
collect data on pregnant people, the
10:19
more opportunities for moms to
10:21
succeed moms act
10:24
proposes to establish an
10:26
online government database called
10:28
pregnancy.gov listing resources related
10:30
to pregnancy, including
10:32
information about adoption agencies and
10:35
pregnancy care providers, except
10:37
for those that provide abortion related services.
10:39
So they're totally like, they're like,
10:41
join our database. We're going to help you.
10:43
And then they're going to totally cut out
10:45
any and all access to any information about
10:47
getting an abortion or
10:50
doing anything other than giving birth
10:52
to that baby. It's under
10:54
the guise of helping you, but they're
10:56
just collecting data on you to keep
10:58
track of you and your children. Wow.
11:00
That, uh, yeah, you know, the party
11:03
of limited government just wants
11:05
a little data, but just one little database
11:07
to track all pregnant women. No big deal.
11:09
Right? No, nothing to see here. One little
11:11
pregnancy.gov website. Here, Jesus. Nothing,
11:14
nothing dystopian or terrifying.
11:18
Yeah. Then my article, um, go. So
11:22
that's the, that's the basic summary
11:24
of her, what she did. Right. Yeah. The
11:27
big takeaway, um,
11:29
there and there. Yeah. They're going
11:31
to connect you to government services and they're going
11:33
to Hector you into
11:36
having that baby. Damn it for Jesus
11:38
for me. No, I want my part
11:40
of that article. So my article, Jesus
11:43
was called Katie Britt
11:45
proposes GPS collar tags for
11:47
pregnant women. Oh, and
11:50
I thought this is like really
11:54
outlandish. It's got a
11:56
picture of a cat with a tag
11:58
around its collar. And
12:01
the sub header just says, just
12:04
like two animals. And
12:07
a lot of people read this
12:09
article and they thought that this was real. Yeah.
12:12
They were like, oh no, I just read
12:14
this. This is a real thing. And then
12:16
there's people in the comments being like, no,
12:19
this is satire. And
12:23
I even went in there and I was like, no, this
12:25
is an exaggeration of what
12:27
she did, a slight exaggeration.
12:31
But that's probably where it would go next too. I
12:33
mean, it could get to that point, some
12:36
sort of GPS device to track you.
12:39
I mean, weren't they thinking of doing that
12:41
somewhere in the south anyway? Maybe.
12:43
Well, not as far as an implant, but like,
12:46
oh, well, they were at least trying to ban
12:48
you from crossing state lines to go and get
12:50
an abortion and arresting people who are assisting you.
12:52
It's kind of similar to that. Let me read
12:54
you the article and you can tell me if
12:56
this sounds real to you. Okay.
12:59
All right. Let me put on my new suit. Ooh,
13:03
newsman. God, there. Wolf
13:06
Blitzer. Look at that. Hotty
13:08
Alabama Senator Katie Britz celebrated
13:10
Mother's Day 2024 by proposing
13:12
a new addition to the
13:14
more opportunities for moms to
13:16
succeed or moms act the
13:18
ability to snap GPS collars onto
13:20
pregnant women's necks for better tracking.
13:24
Just like zoo animals exclaimed
13:26
an excited Brit on CBS
13:28
face the nation. This
13:31
will help pregnant mothers who are thinking
13:33
about getting an abortion because we will
13:35
be able to track their location. And
13:38
if they get close to an abortion
13:40
clinic, we can take them aside for
13:42
prayer guidance. Oh,
13:45
it sounded real to me. You
13:47
can't put anything past Katie Britz.
13:50
She said zoo animal. Okay. I
13:52
thought it was pretty exact. The moms
13:54
act will establish an online government database
13:57
called pregnancy.gov listing pro life resources
13:59
related to pregnant. pregnancy, as well as a
14:01
friendly governmental help on how to
14:03
attain a comfy animal tracking collar.
14:07
I mean, come on. It's not real,
14:09
folks. I will demonstrate
14:11
on my cat Serena, said Britt, attaching
14:13
a collar tag around her cat's neck.
14:16
You just snap it into place and voila! Serena
14:19
here will never escape my watchful
14:21
eye again. I would
14:23
never allow my cute little kitty
14:25
cat to get an abortion because
14:27
she's a born-again Christian. Does
14:30
that still sound real to you? I'm
14:33
starting to put together the pieces as I'm reading it
14:35
for the first time and not knowing. Was
14:38
Serena a tip-off because she's a major
14:40
character in Handmaid's Tale? Oh,
14:45
I should have named it Aunt Lydia. See,
14:47
here's the tricky part. I mean, look, I
14:50
never watched the Handmaid's Tale because
14:53
it's too sad. I don't
14:55
want to be sad, but this is
14:57
one of the challenges of writing satire
14:59
online. It's like you gotta— It's subtle.
15:01
You gotta really whack them over that.
15:03
Okay, the Mom Zach will also establish
15:05
a government force to capture and tag
15:07
unwilling pregnant women who are unwilling to
15:09
love Jesus. In a statement,
15:12
Britt said the bill was proof
15:14
that you can absolutely be pro-life,
15:16
pro-woman, pro-family, and bag and tag
15:18
pregnant women against their will and
15:20
keep them fully under government control
15:22
at the same time. As long
15:24
as you smile and act all smarmy
15:26
about it. Bag
15:28
and tag. Oof. Is
15:31
that still not seen? No, it's— She's
15:34
admitting that she's being smarmy. Some
15:37
people will believe it. That's the
15:39
scary part, but yes, it gets
15:41
increasingly unbelievable. I
15:43
think a lot of people probably—you know, they don't read to
15:46
the end. And
15:48
then they're just like, no, this is real. Oh,
15:51
yeah. There's people who they just see
15:53
a post on Facebook in their feed and they
15:55
don't bother clicking in. They
15:58
just keep scrolling. I'm actually not a—
16:00
allowed to post this on Facebook. I
16:02
understand, but I'm just saying people are
16:04
so lazy. They don't even click past
16:06
the headline or read past. No, I
16:08
literally asked Facebook support. I'm like, can
16:10
I post this satire news on Facebook?
16:13
And they're like, well, it's attacking someone. So
16:15
no, we cannot guarantee that you won't be.
16:19
D you know, D rank
16:21
bullying, which is absolutely insanely
16:23
ridiculous. Yeah. So
16:27
that's why I'm happy to be on sub stack where
16:29
you can actually post fucking comedy. It
16:31
sucks that, you know, stop making
16:33
Elon have a point Facebook. You
16:37
know, comedy is legal on
16:39
sub stack. Yeah. That's
16:42
cool. Legal on X either, because he's totally
16:44
full of shit and bands, whoever he wants.
16:46
But anyway, fuck social media
16:48
companies. This one, I
16:50
at least get to post satire news.
16:53
Jesus fucking Christ. Susan
16:56
said the fact that I wasn't sure at
16:59
first, if this satire says something, either
17:01
I'm losing my sense of humor or
17:03
we are in serious nutcase territory. Um,
17:06
I think we're just in serious
17:08
nutcase territory, right? I think so.
17:11
And it's, it's scary because we're in
17:13
a nuttier time than ever and news
17:16
can run rampant and it's, uh, terrifying
17:19
to see how their message gets spread.
17:21
I try. Have you ever tried to
17:23
run rampant? I've tried
17:25
to run, but not run rampant. I hate running.
17:27
So I probably can't run rampant. I hate running
17:29
too. And my running form
17:31
is so bad. Yeah. That
17:35
me running rampant is just me running.
17:37
What is running rampant? Is it like,
17:39
I feel like that your, I feel
17:41
like it would be your limbs and,
17:44
uh, your arms and legs
17:46
just flying all the Kimbo. Oh,
17:48
okay. Really poor running form. Yeah. And
17:50
I'm thinking no clear path. You're just
17:52
running rampant all over.
17:59
Ha ha. It's nice to
18:01
laugh. Anyway, how is that as a set? How
18:03
am I doing? I think it's great. You did
18:05
a good job with that. And I'm happy that
18:07
you have a platform to write this type of
18:09
stuff. You said that you really enjoy writing this
18:11
stuff. And I'm working with the
18:14
founder of The Onion, who is the editor-in-chief for
18:16
them for 20 years. Oh,
18:18
no big deal. No big deal. No
18:20
big deal. No big deal. Comedy nerds. But
18:23
you know, most of the headlines are mine. His team's first
18:25
headline that I just posted was, God
18:27
demands America call itself One Nation under
18:30
somebody else. One Nation under
18:32
somebody else. Indivisible. Anybody,
18:35
please. Take this
18:37
off my chest, sorry. Callie Aries. Just
18:39
stop putting this shit on me. I've said it
18:41
on the podcast many times. But anyway, Mother's
18:44
Day, the Republicans, it didn't stop there,
18:46
Jesus. Oh? No.
18:49
Remember how Trump kept complaining that he wouldn't get
18:52
to go to his son's graduation? Yes, yes. Well,
18:56
the judge ended up giving him permission to
18:58
go to his graduation. Oh, good. And guess
19:01
where Trump's gonna be instead? Where?
19:04
At a fundraiser. Oh,
19:06
but what a frickin' liar.
19:09
An evil liar. Why?
19:13
And why not go to your
19:15
son's graduation, A-hole? Yeah. It's
19:17
a good look for you, A-hole. Clearly does
19:19
not give a damn about
19:21
him and or Melania. They're
19:24
just, you know, part of the team. Well,
19:26
Melania is just, you know, keeping the money
19:29
flowing to her family by
19:31
keeping quiet. And
19:34
then Barron was allegedly selected.
19:36
He was selected to be a
19:38
representative to the RNC. Yes.
19:42
And the Republicans were like,
19:44
whoo, new prince. Prince Trump
19:46
arrives. And then
19:48
Barron declined the invitation. Oh,
19:50
good. He said no. Yeah.
19:53
And he asked him about that first
19:55
before offering a public
19:58
invite. don't
20:00
ask they just grab you by the pussy.
20:02
Ah, of course. He declined.
20:04
If I was him, if I was
20:06
that kid, honestly, I would do anything
20:09
to avoid the spotlight. Oh,
20:11
I know. Of all of this. Well. Like, it
20:13
sucks. Yeah. You know?
20:15
He's forever going to be tied
20:17
to his horrible father. Now
20:20
that said, I'm sure he- I'd change my
20:22
name if I was him. Yeah, but you
20:24
know what? He surrounds himself with rich Republican
20:26
kids. I'm sure he has his support group.
20:29
True. We'll be right back
20:31
after these messages. So
20:59
yeah, they had a great Mother's Day, um, Mother's Day 2024 for the Trump
21:01
family set
21:19
against the backdrop of his
21:21
trial where he paid
21:23
off porn star Stormy Daniels. Yeah.
21:26
She was on a stand last week about
21:29
him. She didn't end up
21:31
describing his mushroom dick in court,
21:33
Jesus. I'm sorry to say. Oh,
21:36
that's such a bummer. That didn't happen. I was
21:38
looking forward to that. I know. But
21:41
she did contradict all of his lies, and
21:45
she did a great job. Bless her for that.
21:49
Michael Cohen is on the stand testifying
21:51
against Trump now, and he said, new
21:55
today is that Melania was the one
21:57
who came up with the-
22:00
the locker room talk. Oh
22:03
yeah huh pretty smart
22:06
pretty smart who
22:08
knew that she was she was the
22:11
brains in this operation the whole time.
22:13
Yeah she's just hiding there in the
22:15
background with her giant sunglasses. Behind every
22:17
horrible man is a horrible woman. Yeah
22:20
ain't that the truth. Well except for you
22:22
you don't have a wife. Oh
22:25
sorry was that you? Why you gotta say that
22:27
Jesus damn. Sorry
22:29
that was too mean. That was too mean.
22:32
I'm sorry dad. You know you don't
22:34
have a wife either you just got
22:37
12 dudes. I'd rather have 12 dudes
22:39
than one wife. Pretty
22:41
good Jesus. Jesus has a harem. Okay
22:48
yeah oh I've
22:50
been wanting to talk about this for weeks
22:52
Jesus. Uh-huh. Republican against
22:55
child marriage ban calls teens
22:57
ripe and fertile. Ewwww.
23:02
Yeah this is insane. Why
23:04
is it can you imagine if
23:07
Democrats were on the record of saying shit
23:09
like this? Yeah. From
23:11
the people who are always
23:14
saying groomers, pedophiles, Hollywood's all
23:16
pedophiles. This
23:19
is happening in New Hampshire. It's happening
23:21
in I think Missouri is you know
23:25
debating repealing these laws or
23:28
you know so that it's not legal to marry
23:30
children and then and then in
23:32
both places there's always a Republican
23:34
who's like wait wait wait wait wait wait
23:37
what? You're saying we can't
23:39
have child brides? Yeah
23:42
so this New Hampshire lawmaker
23:44
Republican state rep Jess Edwards
23:47
said last week that a bill banning marriage
23:49
for people under 18 would make abortion more
23:51
appealing for young people. If we
23:54
continually restrict the freedom of marriage as a
23:56
legitimate social option when we do this to
23:58
people who are of a... ripe, fertile
24:00
age and may have a pregnancy and
24:02
a baby involved, are we not, in
24:04
fact, making abortion a much more desirable
24:07
alternative? When marriage might
24:09
be the right solution for
24:11
some freedom-loving couples. Freedom-loving couples?
24:13
Oh, I roll. Yeah,
24:16
seriously. Ugh. Stop
24:19
infringing on my freedoms to
24:21
marry a child. I
24:25
mean, this is not a new thing. Republicans
24:27
have always been defending child marriage. You
24:30
can go back and look through time. This
24:33
is their thing. That's why these laws are on
24:35
the books. That's what they want. Ew.
24:40
So weird. Yeah, it's disgusting. Yeah. And
24:44
so, it's why
24:46
do Republicans hate dogs and
24:50
marry children? And just generally hate
24:52
people being happy. Yeah. You
24:55
can't get an abortion. You
24:57
have to be born so that you
24:59
can be sent to
25:01
war, left in the gutter, or
25:04
married at 13 to a
25:06
Republican. I'd rather be aborted,
25:09
Jesus. I'd rather be aborted. Yeah.
25:12
I worry about the kids coming up in
25:15
today's world because of what the future
25:17
might hold, you know? Mm-hmm.
25:21
Personally, I'm glad to just have 12 men to knock
25:24
up. I mean, you know, not
25:26
getting them pregnant. Where are you going to have
25:28
a baby, Jesus? I don't want—I just said I
25:30
don't want to bring a baby into this world
25:32
right now. Mm-hmm. It's
25:35
a scary world. No, I
25:37
get it. I get it. Honestly,
25:40
I really do because it's a
25:43
six-ad world down there, Jesus. Yeah.
25:46
Like I said, especially America, anybody
25:49
else make it a place
25:52
under Kali? Ah,
25:55
yes, yes. Really, anyone?
25:57
Zeno? I don't care. Let
25:59
the Scientologists Have it.. Joseph. Smith. Please
26:02
keep me out of it All right? He's
26:05
time the one not and I don't want
26:07
nothing to do with that mess. Tali
26:10
is a bad batch by the way. if
26:13
you look at her, oh my goodness, What?
26:15
Yes, he's a bad bitch. The bad as
26:17
a batches. Yeah, so says the irony is
26:19
not lost on me. Jesus at any time.
26:22
Oh. The.
26:24
Powerful. The Rich and powerful doing
26:27
crazy things. The. Republicans. It's nothing
26:29
shocking under they're willing to talk. I don't
26:31
think we talked about as last week but
26:33
the Met Gala to be talk about the
26:35
i don't think so. Gay
26:37
line. So this little bit of old knows
26:40
this point. But. Celebrities:
26:42
Are losing a lot of followers?
26:45
On online Tic Toc has come
26:47
up with something they're calling the
26:50
digital. Guillotine. Oh.
26:53
And. What is that us? Where they
26:55
and follow celebrities who haven't spoken
26:57
out about the war in Gaza?
26:59
Oh. Because. Er and Er
27:01
attending things like the Met Gala. And.
27:04
As live In It up. And
27:06
our faces. While. People are getting
27:08
bombed. You. Know honestly out
27:10
is a bad luck. It is a
27:12
bad luck. I mean it's a bad
27:14
look. Say something. Honestly, I've never been
27:17
a fan of the Match Gala either.
27:19
It's. Just any of these events where it's
27:22
all just about the lox. It's like this a
27:24
lot going on in the road. What? What are
27:26
you? Why are we practice and I criticized as
27:28
far as I saw like three pictures and I
27:30
was like with the hell. Oh
27:33
I say I know media or out
27:35
the hearing met gallas a my what
27:37
the hell are these people thinking. That.
27:41
They're and a time where people
27:43
can't afford groceries. They're just like.
27:45
Rubbing. Their wells and
27:48
everybody's faces. Yep, There's.
27:50
People you know On the one hand
27:52
you see images out a Gaza. And.
27:55
Then. There's. rich people just
27:57
live in and of what do you think people are
27:59
going to thing You
28:01
know? Yeah. So
28:03
yeah, not a good look. I
28:05
think Taylor Swift lost like five
28:07
million followers. Really? Not
28:11
that it matters because like she's
28:14
got like a hundred million. Well, yeah,
28:16
a lot of people are feeling it. To
28:21
her credit, she didn't go to the Met Gala, so
28:23
at least there's that. Yeah,
28:26
but people on the
28:28
ticket-y talk are pissed. Pissed.
28:32
And rightfully so. There's
28:34
a lot, honestly, there's not that much
28:37
news going on, Jesus. It's just like,
28:40
you know, Trump's trial
28:44
and Israel. That's it.
28:47
It's the only thing. There's nothing fun going
28:49
on, Jesus. Oh, nothing fun. Remember that time
28:51
Russell Brand got baptized? That
28:54
was pretty funny, right? That was funny. Did
28:58
you officially revoke his baptismal
29:02
rights? Oh, I did. Yeah. I
29:05
have a spell board, so I kind of just waved my wand
29:07
and took care of that. Yeah.
29:11
Yeah. So you saw through all
29:13
that. Oh, a hundred percent. It was nonsense. So
29:15
he's not actually officially a Christian. No. Nope.
29:19
He's just a con man. Took his Christian card.
29:21
Yep. I feel like we just
29:23
came up with a new article. Then
29:26
I took it. Jesus revokes
29:29
Russell Brand's baptism. There
29:32
you go. The Lord has spoken. See, that's
29:34
fun. That's fun. Honestly,
29:36
it's, we've tried everything
29:38
on this podcast. Talking
29:40
about very serious stuff, it feels kind
29:43
of off putting. It's
29:45
exhausting. Well, for
29:48
us in particular, because we're cartoon characters
29:50
and we're God and Jesus and it's
29:52
like, God, why don't you do something
29:54
about Israel? And it's like, yo, don't
29:57
just like the USA, please don't connect. connect
29:59
me to any of that. Yeah. Don't
30:02
you put that evil on me, Ricky
30:05
Bobby. Mm-hmm. Okay. Yeah,
30:08
and I just want to make people laugh
30:11
and give them some kind of escape from
30:13
this chamber of
30:15
horrors. You know
30:18
who's making me chuckle over the weekend?
30:20
I've been watching John Mulaney's new talk
30:22
show on Netflix. Yeah.
30:25
Is it good? Everybody's in LA.
30:27
Yes. And certainly it's a
30:29
limited series talk show. There's only like
30:31
seven episodes and now it's over. But
30:33
it's really funny. I recommend, and oh,
30:35
and the other big thing was that
30:37
he was streaming it live every night
30:40
on Netflix. Yeah. So that
30:42
was cool. I saw a little bit. He
30:44
was interviewing Seinfeld. Yeah. There's everything we can
30:46
learn from their talk show that we can use. Huh. They
30:49
had a- Live streaming, you say? Live
30:51
streaming. They had like- On Netflix.
30:54
Help. They had like, yes. They
30:56
had like five guests. Too many guests at once.
30:58
Like they're all sitting on a couch. It was
31:00
too much because they- Wow, that's interesting. Yeah, but
31:02
it leaves a very little time for each person
31:04
to talk and some people just get shuttered. Like
31:06
Pete Davidson was on the Dave Letterman episode. I
31:08
think he said a whopping like 10 words. He's
31:12
probably fine with that. Yeah, sure.
31:14
He was probably high. And
31:18
they had some comedy bits like outside
31:20
of the live interviews that
31:22
were honestly really bad. I started
31:24
fast forwarding through them. Really? Yeah,
31:26
the live conversations on the couch were great. So you just
31:28
said this is a great show. The
31:30
live interviews- You should watch it,
31:33
God. But the comedy sketches are terrible. The
31:35
sketches were not good, in my opinion. Maybe
31:37
one or two are all right. But I started
31:40
fast forwarding past them. Just watch for the
31:42
interview. I mean, this comedy is hard as fuck, so. Yeah.
31:45
But I felt like it was my duty- We
31:47
would do a comedian, like a stand-up comedian, like
31:49
John Mulaney, try to do sketch comedy. Or
31:52
you see a stand-up comedian, like
31:54
Jerry Seinfeld, try to do a
31:56
movie. Did you watch the Pop
31:58
Tarts movie? I watched the first- like 40
32:00
minutes of it and
32:03
yeah I did that's
32:05
amazing did you watch it I
32:07
watched the preview
32:10
that plays on Netflix for like
32:12
20 seconds and I was like
32:15
yeah it's not
32:17
good it's not good but the cast is
32:19
stacked look and if you just watch it
32:21
maybe it's a good like background movie like
32:24
don't take it seriously and you might think
32:26
it's okay but I
32:29
actually know somebody who liked who watched it and
32:31
really liked it which surprised me I think he's the only
32:33
person who liked it one of
32:35
my one of your disciple yeah yeah maybe
32:37
he doesn't have a good sense of your
32:39
high on the cada mean probably I also
32:42
watched the rom-com anyone but
32:45
you on Netflix over the weekend while we're
32:47
talking about what we're watching did
32:49
you watch the roast of Tom Brady no
32:53
I do want to watch that but I haven't I don't
32:56
know why I just don't
32:59
care just can't get into that
33:01
shit that roast again that's
33:03
another thing where it's like oh are
33:06
you enjoying yourselves celebrities
33:09
yeah but they're making fun of Tom Brady so that
33:12
we're gonna pretend that it's 2011 around here the roast
33:14
is three hours which I saw that
33:17
I was like oh my god
33:20
I don't think I'm gonna be able to watch three hours
33:24
of roasting Tom Brady seems like and
33:26
that's no commercials yeah and that's the other thing I
33:28
or I hate
33:30
Tom Brady
33:34
no I do I do know that he got
33:36
up and was like yo no more jokes
33:39
about Robert Kraft and
33:41
liking happy endings yes I
33:44
did to hear that that occurred live
33:47
which honestly guess who's
33:50
gonna have a ton more jokes made about him
33:53
yep Robert Kraft who
33:55
likes happy endings you
33:59
did it means get getting jacked off at
34:01
a massage powder. So were there reports
34:03
that he used to do that? Is that where they, those
34:06
dude really missed this whole story years ago. I'm
34:09
kind of a late bloomer to the sports world.
34:11
So if you want to
34:13
invite me, you can, but yeah,
34:15
no, he got accused of like
34:20
just Google search Robert Kraft massage.
34:26
Okay. Oh yes. I
34:28
see that on vanity fair. Because he's
34:30
a billionaire, Jesus, it doesn't
34:32
matter. That's right. He can do
34:34
what he wants. Yeah.
34:37
Oh, and you know what? Okay. Okay.
34:39
Okay. Okay. I know that, you know,
34:41
there's not enough fun, funny news for
34:43
us right now that
34:46
we're trying to, you know, give you some
34:48
escape and shelter from the storm. But,
34:53
but, but last week,
34:55
Jesus, something happened
34:57
that I feel
34:59
that by the end of 2024 is going to
35:01
be up there as one of the funnier things.
35:05
Oh, Robert F. Kennedy
35:08
Jr. says doctors found
35:10
a dead worm in his brain. Yeah.
35:15
Like last week on a Wednesday, you never
35:17
know what's going to happen on
35:19
a given day. But all
35:21
of a sudden, all anybody could talk about
35:23
was brain worms. Yeah. And
35:26
how Robert Kennedy has brain worms. Yeah.
35:30
And we, I was like, we already know that, but
35:33
thanks for confirming it. Yeah. Oh, there
35:35
were so many jokes, Jesus. I'm sure
35:37
you saw them all. It died of
35:40
starvation. It died of
35:42
starvation. Now
35:44
I know you heard about this. I did. Oh yeah. I
35:46
see you couldn't avoid this one. Yeah.
35:50
So that was fun. Um,
35:53
and, uh, one of my, my
35:56
favorite thing about this was.
36:00
making jokes about it and then
36:02
everybody's laughing, everybody's having fun and then
36:04
there's one dude in the comments who's
36:06
like a fan of
36:09
his who's like, this
36:11
is a very serious issue. Millions
36:14
of people are affected every year. A
36:20
billion people annually. God, how
36:22
dare you make fun of
36:24
him for having brain
36:26
worms. And it's like,
36:28
yeah, but are they running
36:30
for press? And
36:34
we need to know what were his
36:36
positions before the brain worms
36:40
and what was he like after the brain
36:42
worms. Is
36:44
that when things started going
36:47
south in his decision making? And
36:52
when did this happen exactly? Do we
36:54
know? Like 2001? In
37:01
2010, Robert F. Kennedy
37:03
was experiencing memory loss and mental
37:05
fogginess so severe that a
37:07
friend grew concerned he might have a
37:10
brain tumor. This is
37:12
very serious, Jesus. Mr. Kennedy said
37:14
he consulted several of the country's top neurologists,
37:16
many of whom had either treated or spoken
37:18
to his uncle, Senator
37:21
Ted Kennedy, before his death
37:23
the previous year of brain cancer.
37:25
Oh, nice. Several
37:28
doctors noticed a dark spot. The
37:32
doctor said it was caused by a worm that
37:34
got into my brain and ate a portion of
37:36
it and then died. It
37:40
died and then what? Like it's like
37:42
disintegrated? Like what? How does that what?
37:45
I'm confused. From starvation, Jesus. So
37:49
we had fun with this on
37:52
my sub stack, the God pod sub
37:54
stack. And I did
37:56
a post RFK Junior names brain worm is
37:58
running mate. Is it the
38:00
best headline of all time? That is good. That is
38:02
good. It's perfect. But it was
38:04
fun. I like it. Sometimes
38:08
they're just silly. Silly.
38:14
Shall I read you portions? Yeah, let's
38:16
hear. Let's hear. From my writing to
38:18
fill time. Okay. Independent
38:21
presidential candidate Robert F.
38:23
Kennedy Jr. named
38:25
a parasitic brainworm. He only refers
38:28
to as brainy as
38:30
his running mate Tuesday at a rally
38:32
in Oakland, California. A
38:34
worm got into my brain and ate a
38:36
portion of it and then died. In
38:39
honor of that worm, I'm so proud to
38:41
introduce you to the next vice president of
38:43
the United States. This little
38:45
parasitic worm I call brainy,
38:47
Kennedy said. Brainy
38:50
selection is being hailed as a smart move
38:52
by the New York Times editorial board. I
38:55
should have added. And bad for Biden.
39:00
Mr. Kennedy has, oh no I did. Sorry,
39:02
I did. Well done. Mr. Kennedy has
39:04
worms for brains. Here's why that's
39:06
bad news for Biden. RFK
39:10
Jr.'s campaign has severed ties with
39:12
its previous VP pick. Tech entrepreneur
39:14
Nicole Shanahan, who is reportedly not
39:16
happy about the news. I
39:19
think you're laughing at your own article that you
39:21
wrote. I make myself laugh. I'm
39:24
picturing you now writing this and laughing at
39:26
the same time. I don't know why everyone
39:28
is making jokes about this. Said
39:31
an agitate, said an agitated RFK Jr. fan
39:33
at the rally. See, this is inspired by
39:35
real life Jesus. Brain worms are
39:38
a very serious issue. Everyone I
39:40
know who supports RFK has had them at one point
39:42
or another. Me have five right now. Comedy!
39:51
And then we talked to the worm. He said,
39:54
please, no, don't make me go into his brain. My
39:56
father died in there. Anyway,
40:00
and then I had another good
40:02
tweet Jesus. Uh-huh. I still call them tweets It was
40:04
on threads where I was like having
40:06
a worm eat your brain is a good metaphor for
40:09
what it's like Listen to Joe Rogan and Ben Shapiro
40:12
And he's been guests. I'm like Joe Rogan
40:15
what multiple times? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah He's
40:18
got like 6% He's
40:20
pulling at 6% He's
40:24
hurting Biden I Think
40:27
he's taking more votes from Biden than Trump. Yeah,
40:29
I think that's right What
40:32
dude Jesus, you know, I uh,
40:35
I'm glad we're not gonna be allowed to exist
40:37
anymore Yeah, if
40:39
Trump gets elected they're gonna do that project 2025
40:41
shit Like
40:43
how do people not see that this is a bigger?
40:47
Threat. I know we're
40:49
pissed off but like
40:51
things could be So will
40:53
be so much worse We'll
40:55
be right back after these messages Backyard
40:58

41:37
I'm glad you bring this up because the New York Times
41:39
Posted some new polls on Monday and
41:42
Trump is leading in five key states.
41:44
I'm starting to get worried I'm starting
41:46
to get worried. I've said before on
41:49
this well that You
41:51
know, don't take the polls too seriously It's
41:53
too early that's a map, but I don't know I
41:56
rarely see good poll news about Biden and
41:58
as things As the
42:01
election gets closer, I'm like, oh,
42:03
you can't the polls mean something.
42:06
Yeah. And, uh, people
42:08
are pissed about the
42:10
inflation and the price of groceries.
42:12
They weren't able to fix that.
42:14
And also God's and then the
42:16
Gaza obviously is a huge issue.
42:19
Bernie Sanders said he's worried Biden could
42:21
lose election over the Gaza war. Yeah.
42:24
I think I would assume that
42:26
Hamas was told to do that. We're
42:28
paid to do that attack by Vladimir
42:31
Putin because he wants Trump to be
42:33
elected. He, they knew that this and
42:36
all of this, they probably came up with
42:38
the phrase genocide Joe, I wouldn't put it
42:40
past them and pushed it as
42:42
hard as they could. Because
42:45
they know once, you know, there's people that
42:47
are like, it doesn't matter. It
42:50
doesn't matter that new, but now the latest thing
42:52
is that Biden is, um,
42:55
they're withholding weapons. They're
42:57
not going to support Israel's March
43:00
into Rafa. And
43:03
it's honestly, it doesn't matter.
43:05
It doesn't matter to people on the left
43:08
that are pissed. They're like, the
43:10
damage is done. The people
43:12
are dead. You
43:14
know, once they slap genocide on
43:16
your name, they don't fucking take that
43:18
shit off. People
43:20
have right to be concerned about
43:23
the economy and Gaza and
43:25
many other things, but I just don't
43:27
know to your point how
43:29
you look at these two options and
43:32
you say, we're going back to Trump.
43:35
That's the better of the two. They say we're
43:37
going to punish the Democrats for not
43:40
doing what we wanted. But
43:42
then you're punishing yourself by voting for
43:44
Trump long-term, I guess is how I
43:47
feel. Yeah. I
43:49
know. I honestly, I saw it happen
43:51
in 2016. I
43:54
understood being pissed because Bernie,
43:56
you know, it wasn't the candidate and people were
43:59
pissed and I. I understand. Are you saying you voted
44:01
Trump in 2016? No.
44:05
Obviously. But I'm just saying. Because you're
44:07
dying, you can't vote. All I'm saying
44:09
is they fucking tried it already. Yeah.
44:11
Of this idea of let's punish the
44:13
Democrats because we didn't
44:17
get what we wanted and it
44:19
didn't fucking work. The Democrats
44:21
haven't changed at all. At
44:25
all. If you want to change
44:27
them, you got to join and
44:29
infiltrate from within or start a new party.
44:33
Whatever. We're
44:35
voting for R.F.K. But
44:38
he's not going to fucking win. And
44:40
then Trump is going to get elected and he's
44:42
going to put four more Supreme Court justices on.
44:45
And you're going to be living in the handmade
44:47
sale. How is
44:49
that going to make life
44:51
better for the Palestinians? Because
44:55
on Saturday night at his rally in
44:57
New Jersey, Trump suggested that when elected,
44:59
he would deport pro-Palestinian
45:01
college protesters. And
45:04
you know what their favorite little joke is, Jesus? What?
45:07
We're going to deport them to Gaza. When
45:10
he says we're going to deport you, they
45:13
mean deport you to Palestine. They
45:17
think that's so funny. Which
45:20
is just so many levels
45:22
of infuriating. Oh,
45:25
you're getting, it's like, so you're admitting it's
45:27
a horrible fucking thing. Place that you are.
45:30
I don't know where to begin with that shit. But
45:32
yeah, he said he would deport them. Oh,
45:35
and also he said he wants to finish
45:37
the problem. He
45:39
was the most pro-Israel president probably
45:42
ever. He moved, supported moving
45:44
the capital. He's
45:47
been, they consider him the
45:49
most pro. He wants to
45:51
finish the problem. What does finish the problem sound
45:54
like to you? But he's
45:56
totally down with mass genocide. If
45:59
anybody... Oh,
46:01
also his son Jared Kushner publicly
46:03
said that God's waterfront property
46:05
could be very valuable. Wow.
46:09
If you're supporting the
46:11
Palestinian people, how is that better?
46:14
Yeah. How is that going to be
46:16
better for them? That seems like worse.
46:19
Right? Yeah. I
46:23
mean, what has happened
46:26
is monstrous. Okay. But
46:28
Netanyahu has done, it's fucking monstrous.
46:30
Yes. Okay. Mm
46:33
hmm. But damn, shit
46:36
is, yeah, it's scary because I, it's
46:38
like, I get it. I get why people are like, well,
46:40
I'm just not gonna, you know, and that's
46:42
how I don't vote. I can't support
46:45
what's happened, but I don't get not
46:48
understanding that Trump is going
46:50
to be so much worse. He was already
46:52
in power. Yeah. And
46:55
you saw what he is. Yeah. How
46:59
the fuck is that better? I
47:01
don't know. I really, this is, it's so
47:03
hard for me to compute because do people
47:06
just have really bad memories? They
47:08
don't, and there's also of
47:10
course, so much that Trump is throwing at us
47:12
at all times. It's hard for people to keep
47:14
up on it all. It's like,
47:17
how do I, how do I stay on top of
47:19
just how nuts he is when he's spewing so much
47:21
shit every second of the day?
47:23
Well, I guess Biden should have made
47:25
a different decision and bucked 75 years
47:27
of American foreign policy.
47:30
I mean much fucking sooner, but
47:34
you know, that's, and we all knew it, but
47:37
that's just the way it's, it's tragic. What
47:40
they did with the, uh, anyway,
47:43
I said, how can you not
47:45
talk about the biggest story of the day? It's not
47:47
funny, Jesus. It's not. It is
47:49
not funny. No. Oh, and by
47:51
the way, don't let Trump tell you. They, they,
47:53
he wants to say that, oh, they're all
47:56
anti-Semitic, the protesters,
47:58
right? J.D.
48:00
Vance went on Dana Bass show on Sunday
48:02
and said, I don't think anybody could look
48:04
at the presidency in the conduct of Donald
48:06
Trump and say this is a person who's
48:08
somehow anti-Semitic. Dana Bass responded,
48:10
he had dinner with Nick Fuentes,
48:13
who is an avowed anti-Semite. It's
48:16
true. The
48:18
Proud Boys, like Nick
48:20
Fuentes, he's cuddled up to
48:23
the most anti-Semitic hateful
48:25
people in the country
48:29
for his entire presidency. Oh, also they
48:31
attacked the Capitol. Remember
48:35
that the Jews will not replace
48:37
us? And then Trump
48:39
was like, there's good people on both sides?
48:41
Oh, yeah. That was a really dark point
48:44
in his term. Well,
48:46
there you go. And so the nerve to
48:49
equate any criticism of
48:52
the military actions of Israel in
48:54
the first place with, oh, that
48:56
means you're anti-Semitic is
48:58
insane. But for
49:00
it to come out of the mouth
49:02
of Trump, okay? Yeah.
49:06
It's just – nothing makes sense. Because
49:08
his son Jared Kushner is Jewish. Yeah.
49:10
That's an awkward part of all this. He
49:14
also – it was also reported
49:16
in the last week that Trump's
49:18
been meeting with oil bigwigs, and he's
49:20
promising that if they send
49:22
him like hundreds of millions of dollars for
49:24
his campaign, he will undo
49:26
all the climate change. Change
49:29
regulation that Biden's been implementing, I
49:31
think particularly when it comes to
49:33
EVs. So he's trying
49:36
to win over the oil
49:39
guys that way, which is just gross. He
49:41
wants to undo the EV
49:43
movement in America with the
49:46
help of the gas
49:48
companies. So it's just – I
49:53
mean, you know,
49:56
once people are pissed, they
49:58
don't forget that shit. You
50:00
know, yeah, I
50:02
get it, but it's gonna lead
50:05
to Trump being president again. Yeah, and he's
50:08
going to Take
50:11
every issue and fuck us in
50:13
the app. No, that's I
50:16
need a better metaphor because that could be a nice thing
50:19
Stab us in the eyes with a fork
50:22
He's gonna stab us in the brain in
50:25
the heart in the back. So it's fucking
50:27
it's terrifying Jesus. It is really terrifying We
50:31
have six months of Worrying
50:34
and wondering people to for but
50:36
I try and dig out of
50:38
the I don't know Doesn't
50:40
look good Jesus that said
50:43
a lot of people are extremely fucking
50:45
fickle. What in what what do you mean? About
50:48
everything. Yeah, like the polls
50:50
go up. They go down Based
50:53
on what? Yeah, that's true
50:55
and the media loves covering the horse race.
50:58
So oh they're getting closer. Oh, they're gonna
51:00
show the report Oh Biden's now ahead. Oh
51:02
Trump's down really no one knows a goddamn
51:04
No one knows a medium thing about what's
51:06
gonna happen. Yeah, and like I've said before
51:10
It was just a few years ago that
51:12
Biden did defeat Trump and we have debates
51:14
to go Biden's been very good
51:16
when he needs to be think about like the
51:18
state of the Union. He can really turn it
51:20
on Turn
51:23
on his energy and make a forceful speech so
51:26
and they do seem to be They
51:29
seem to both be interested in debating one another Biden
51:32
made a surprise appearance on Howard Stern and he said
51:34
he is Up for debating
51:37
Trump and I think Trump has said the same
51:39
thing So maybe that can move the needle of
51:41
course we can look forward to an October surprise
51:43
or two Of
51:46
course, you know we here at
51:48
God Inc Would
51:50
love to interfere and but ultimately
51:53
it's up to you the American people Yeah,
51:56
I would love to interfere except for
51:58
the fact that
52:00
I'm totally fucking powerless. Okay?
52:04
Church membership is way down. Newsletters.
52:08
Yeah, I know. My only, I'm like, this
52:11
is how bad God is doing. I'm
52:13
like, super excited and
52:15
hopeful for my new sub-stack. Which,
52:19
you know, sounds,
52:21
for me, it's true. But for like, in
52:24
the wider public, that'd be like,
52:28
God, are you okay? The
52:30
Godpod. Are
52:32
you okay, God? Do you need a hug? Because
52:36
most people don't even know what the
52:38
fuck that is. Sub-stack. What
52:42
it means, or what, or...
52:44
The Godpod.substack.com. I'm just excited
52:46
to be free to
52:48
post my comedy without getting hit
52:51
with a community standards violation. So
52:54
yeah, the Godpod on sub-stack is
52:56
like, you know, a means
52:58
of getting our good shit out there.
53:02
And he's writing really funny stuff, so check
53:04
it out, y'all. I
53:06
just signed up. Oh, you
53:08
did? Just now? Well, at the
53:10
top of this podcast when you were giving me the
53:12
updates, but yeah. You
53:14
got a subscriber in me. You know how
53:17
many articles I've sent Jesus in the last
53:19
week? You just... You
53:22
just signed up now. Oh,
53:25
no, it's fine. I'm not mad. I
53:28
don't know why I hadn't done that sooner. You're
53:30
right, I apologize. Because
53:32
you don't want emails going to your inbox? No,
53:34
I'm looking forward to... I actually like newsletters. I
53:37
like newsletters a lot. I signed up for
53:40
a podcast newsletter. Oh, okay. You like
53:42
newsletters a lot. Just, you know... Well,
53:45
anyway, thanks for signing up. When
53:48
can I expect it in
53:50
my inbox every morning? I
53:52
posted random times. Usually I've been sending them out
53:54
at like 2 to 5
53:57
o'clock. In the morning? Or at night?
53:59
In the afternoon. depending on where you
54:01
are. Okay. And what, what the
54:03
engagement numbers look like, depending on the time of
54:05
day, you've been doing some A B testing. I
54:08
like my new, it just literally comes up
54:10
to when I'm, I'm trying to see, you
54:13
know, what's trending that day. Did
54:15
somebody say that they have brain worms and
54:19
you want to, you know, make your, make
54:22
your satire news article about that thing. You want
54:24
to jump on it as soon as you can.
54:27
May I recommend sending it
54:30
overnight American time so
54:32
they can wake up, grab
54:34
a cup of coffee and read
54:37
the news. Now I'm
54:39
a little biased. You know, this is a
54:41
biased opinion. Cause that's when I like reading my
54:43
newsletters, but you should try that out. That's how
54:45
like all the newsletters do it. They release it
54:47
in the morning. True. But
54:51
again, you're in, you know, you understand
54:53
that comedy is related to
54:55
time. I mean,
54:58
yes, I understand that, but maybe
55:00
they're not reading it at night. That's all I'm saying.
55:02
Open rates, 50%. That's
55:05
good. Pretty fucking good. Yeah. All
55:07
right. Let's bless the things we liked and smite
55:10
the things we hated. I would
55:12
like to bless everyone that has signed up
55:14
for my sub stack newsletter
55:17
and is reading the articles. And I would like
55:19
to bless the people have even
55:22
gone on to become paid subscribers. That
55:24
is my hope for the future of being
55:27
freed from the yoke of
55:29
tyranny of things like Facebook and
55:32
their insane AI moderation and
55:34
all this bullshit. I've
55:37
always relied upon the kindness of strangers,
55:39
Jesus. I would like
55:42
to smite Jesus for waiting an
55:44
entire week to add his
55:46
email to the newsletter. Um,
55:48
all right. I'm sorry
55:50
about that, but, uh,
55:53
you know, a week's not that bad. Oh,
55:55
you're sorry. I'm sorry. I'm
55:57
sorry. I
56:02
was busy celebrating Mother's Day
56:04
with my mom. Hey,
56:07
I promised you I would dedicate
56:09
myself to you this Father's Day.
56:12
I won't even be- I'm just kidding. He ended
56:14
up signing up. Okay. But,
56:18
uh, I would like to smite Jared
56:20
Kushner and Donald Trump and,
56:22
uh, all these people
56:24
that are- oh my
56:27
goodness. There was a whole bunch of good stories we
56:29
didn't talk about. Fuck. And I
56:31
would like to smite my poor time management. You go ahead,
56:33
Jesus. I would like
56:35
to bless every article in God's newsletter, and
56:37
I'll tell you what, God, to make up
56:40
for my delay, I'm going to hit like
56:42
on every article. And I might
56:44
even tell you- Hell yeah. Hell
56:46
yeah. I want to bless John Mulaney,
56:48
though I want to insert a smite
56:50
in this bless to say that the
56:53
sketches in between the interview segments
56:55
were not good. I'm
57:00
sure that they would love to hear that.
57:04
Absolutely ringing endorsement. Well actually- Can
57:06
you give us some John Mulaney
57:08
how he would respond? So
57:10
I heard Jesus on his
57:12
podcast said he doesn't like
57:14
the comedy sketches. So I've
57:16
invited Jesus onto season two
57:19
of Everybody's in Los Angeles.
57:21
And we'll see if he can do any better. We
57:24
wish. That started good.
57:26
I would also like to bless the
57:28
movie Challengers. It is homoerotic as, and
57:32
oh my gosh, it was so good. Everybody should see
57:34
it. And I want
57:36
to bless- It's about like having a three way with Zendaya.
57:39
Basically, yeah. And
57:42
I want to bless
57:44
the brain worm that was in RFK
57:46
Junior's head. Aww, yeah. Bless
57:49
you, Wormy. Bless
57:52
you for crawling in there. You're a good one.
57:55
Trying to help you. That brain worm was just trying
57:57
to help by eating some of
58:00
the- bad parts save America but
58:02
die of starvation so I would
58:04
like to drop a new commandment on you
58:07
that's right in a while new
58:10
commandment thou shalt not
58:12
create a federal database of
58:15
pregnant women thou
58:17
shalt stop trying to turn
58:19
society into the friggin handmade
58:21
