Speaker 1 (00:02):
Well, what's your Is that a Loong June shirt?
Speaker 2 (00:06):
What does it say?
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Bong June? Oh just just Bong June hope, okay, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
It's probably very possibly AI generated off of that sea, but.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
It is at this point, you know.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Ten thousand Bank June Hoe. At least it's images, it's clips.
Actually you know what, it probably wasn't, but it was
probably algorithmically generated by Yeah. Yeah, like you put in
twenty images of Bong June Hoe and it does the text.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
But you bought that outside the Magic Johnson Theater.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Yeah, I know it does look like yeah, like you
came out of what Mickey Mickey seventeen.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
I did wear this to Mickey seventeen, but I put
up and someone's like, yo, I got them right here.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Bro to one for twenty two for thirty Hey Internet,
how you doing, good morning, good to see you, good
to hear from you. It's uh, you know, season three
eighty four, episode one of the data. But look, we
call this what happened What the hell happened over the
weekend trending episode where we catch up on all the
(01:03):
nonsense and what the heck's going on? Yeah, yeah, what
the heck? What the heck's going on. Uh look, Jack
will be back soon, but hey, it's still me in
the place to be with my main co hosts, Andrew T.
Thank you Andrew T for joining me on this Tea
n D episode of dz Okay. I'm done.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I didn't. I didn't want you to keep going.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
I thought we finally deposed the white Man and now
we rule as we see fit.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, we did, we did, only for him to return.
It's funny because every time Jack goes out of town
is something cataclysmic happens. Like last time it was the
first assassination attempt on Trump and the debate. There's that
Joe Biden debate where I was like, did the airplane
or what film is that where everyone does a forehead slap.
It's one of those Zucker movies. Yeah, yeah, maybe it's
like airplane airplane or naked gun or some shit. And
(01:54):
then this time we got tariff fuck fest. He's got
a lot to answer, He's got a lot.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
I mean, it does feel like like basically Jack takes
off for his market manipulation summits, and then every time Jack.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Leaves, he makes three hundred million dollars in the stock market.
I don't know. I just don't know. And never he
never lets me in on any of these tips. But anyway,
here we are telling you what's trending. Before we get
to what the news was. We like to open our
hearts and minds to you. Zeichkang, let you know what's
overrated and underrated in our minds. Guests first, Andrew T,
(02:30):
what is something you think is underrated?
Speaker 3 (02:32):
You know what I'm I'm losing faith that I haven't
said this already, but I'll say it again. I'm just
completely fucking your Spotify algorithm. Oh just like, listen to
for one day a month, just listen to some shit
you would never listen to, right, just so like and
it really mixes it up. And not that even that
this is music I find like bad. It's just music
(02:53):
I don't really listen to. But the show Common Side
Effects has I don't know if you've ever heard of it. Yeah,
HBO and twim Max whatever has for the first time,
I think the only two good cops in UH cinematic
televised history. These two cops named Campano and Harrington, who
(03:19):
love like seventies disco, like electronica, funk ish type stuff
and anyway, Almost every one of their scenes opens with
them discussing like music esoterica before they get into like
their like stakeout business. Yeah, Tallow disco producer Brian's talking
(03:40):
about it's it's true and it is it is like
like it's so nicely worked into the animation. There's always
doing a little shoulder shimmy like every time they're talking. Anyway,
someone on Spotify made a playlist of their like the
music they're discussing. Yeah, so this weekend I had that
(04:01):
on repeat, and you know it's I'll.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Just I'll just look at this playlist.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Now we got like Jumped the Line by Harry Belafonte,
Nothing Too Crazy rescut by Bony m Oh Yeah, Let's
see You, Sexy Thing by Hot Chocolate War Edwin Starr,
which also underrated, just admonishing society in your in your
ad libs when when Edwin Star says good God, y'all,
(04:27):
it's really.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
But like I think this era of music, it's like
music I like, but I don't like listen to a lot. Sure,
and just like one weekend of playing this Compano and
Harrington playlist really refreshed my my suggestions on Spotify. So
I think in general, algorithm fucking just like make sure
they don't know who you are.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
And you know, it's so funny, Like I now that
I've now that I'm doing midlife cris DJ stuff as
my new hobby, I have like an entire other YouTube
account that I watch a bunch of DJ kind of
stuff on because I'm like, I don't want to poison
my other algorithm that I have, Like I have algorithm
silos basically where I keep it clean. I'm like, this
(05:15):
is just a nerd out on cooking and dejaying. Yeah,
and then but the thing about the algorithm one, it
is wild because there are times when I let her
majesty like play something because she refuses to get Spotify.
She's like, I'm fine using like the free things that
are late chok full of ads, and she loses her mind.
She like, I can't do this, and I'm like, why
(05:36):
don't we just do Like I'll just add you to
the counch. No, I don't need Spotify, just let me
use yours. And it fucks my algorithm up bad like,
and it is music I'm not really like into or
want to hear because I listen to a ton of music,
and I like it, like bringing new stuff that I
like all the time. I feel like when that happens,
it feels like whatever's happening with the economy right now,
(05:57):
It's like, with just this one moment in time with
the tariffs, you can completely fuck up your algorithm for.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
At least but Miles, here's my pitch to you. Okay,
it makes you a more active listener to like to
have your algorithm and even if you hate.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Something, move on from it. And I genuinely think.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
You know you're not gonna do it, and you shouldn't
because you have your system. But I am saying for
the people, no.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
No, I'm I'm not saying. I'm just saying I have
scram your data.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Scramble your data as much as you can. Just just
throw in, throw in a Joe Roken experience, every like
one hundredth podcast.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Listen that way, you.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Gotta know what they're saying. You got they're saying because
you like it.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
It truly it's it's so.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I I genuinely find it to be because like every time,
like Instagram or anyone advertises to me, I take some
small comfort in how wrong they are.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
They genuinely do not have to do a.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Thing where like you won't because like out of some
weird like paranoia from like watching Enemy of the State
or like conspiracy in the nineties, Like you won't do
things on the internet. This this makes sense, Like you don't.
You don't want to feed an algorithm a certain thing
you might be interesting because you're trying to keep some
of your cars.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
I probably should have. I think I think we all.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Anyone who's listening to this podcast, Anyone who didn't set
up like a VPN account to download the MP three
onto a cold storage and listen to this on a
separate device, has already given too.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Much of the algorithm.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
So I mean that That's what I'm saying is like
you've already put too much out here. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Yeah, So the only way.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
To obfuscate yourself is to flood the zone with guard shit.
Yeah yeah yeah, because you can't, like you can't take
back what you've already put out there, right, But what
you can do is make them wrong about who they are.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
To throw them off the scent. Yeah, everybody challenge throw
them off the scent. I'm like, I'm one going to
be watching some weird shit about ship.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Don't I should heavily asterisk this with I don't know
what I'm talking about, but.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
That's we should heavily ask this entire show with that.
But hey, people are here for the for the vibes,
you know, not the facts. It's all about vibes. Were
dealing vibes here. My underrated is crawfish end the story. Really,
it's the season. It's crawfish season. Well, no, this is
when you get fresh crawfish because a lot of times
(08:31):
other times you're getting frozen crawfish. This is when it's fresh.
And if you like a good crawfish like I do
and our mutual friend Kevin does you know, we like
to get we like to eat some mudbugs. I just
keep I just realized that we were like in the
height of like we're approach, like we're in the midst
of the best time for crawfish, and I just got excited,
(08:51):
and I just I just like, I think it's about
it's about a communal table with a bunch of weird
carcasses that you just rip through and disc hard, you know,
to metaphor yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
I I find it a little frustrating eating crawfish with
some folks. I eat.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
I mean, clearly something's wrong with me.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
But I have a very much like if you don't
eat it my way, you're eating it wrong.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Okay, what's your I mean just like thing, yeah, just
like they're like, oh, you should maybe separate the tail,
and just.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Like, nah, nah I do. I am fully onto.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I have not left a shrimp shell or any portion
of shrimp on a plate in going on ten years.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Now.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I eat if it's a shell, I take the outer
part off, but I always eat the tail.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Yeah, not meat, dog, you eat.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
The outer part.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Two.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I like the little I like the shrimp meat because
then I get my crunchies from the tail, you know
what I mean. And then I'm definitely eating the fucking
head the skull.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
This was like, this was like an uh a, this
was me trying to prove a point that I went
too far on.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
But like you'd like, watch this ship. Yeah yeah, yeah,
those are raw.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
It's I don't know, man, something something's wrong with me.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
But yeah, that's the thing, is I I am I
become like that dickhead that's like you have not sufficiently
sucked the head.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yeah I know, and I'm not.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
I'm yeah, I'm.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
The same way because I was also raised like with
my dad's family. Like my grandfather is a like he
had a barbecue restaurant and was always smoking really and
shit like that, and he would always comment on how
much meat people because obviously he's a black man from
the depression. He's like, he's like, boy, you better rake
that boney. He's like, there's still meat on there. And
(10:38):
I'm like, and then I took that with me into adulthood.
Now now I'm calling people out for not sufficiently raking
the bone. Right, Yeah, here, we're right.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Yeah, we just you just have to like pick your battles.
But we're right.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
And you know what, I pick every battle, and which
is the hard part. Every time there's a battle, I'm
picking it. I know. I never stand down, and that's
why people don't want to hang out with me anymore. Yeah,
I'm talking about, Oh.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
You can leave that cartilage. There's a cartilage on that bone.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
You think. It's also like being like I feel like
having immigrant parents also like sort of contributes to that
environment where you're it's like waste not want not kind
of thing.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I think, No, we eat that part immigrant.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
But also because like especially like like we're in like media,
which has like too much where we're we professionally and
probably socially are around I would say eight to fifteen
percent too many white people. So I think part of
the two is like really needing to like make your
market and remind me of yourself who you are.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Yeah, they're like no, because it's funny. My mom would
say shit like that growing up. She's like you, She's
like eat the tail. She's like, what are you American? Yeah,
like like America shaming, like ause, you know, shout out
my mom for her light America shame. She's like, look
at you cleaning those dishes, like you American that kind
of like leaving stuff, like not cleaning stuff sufficiently. The
(12:03):
slur was always oh, like yeah, it's really yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
I mean the like immigrant kid thing is the frustration
of like if you didn't want an American, why did
you come there?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Why? And then but then I know it's look, you're
putting all your America assimilation dreams onto me while also
being at odds with that dream at the same time,
and you're giving me double speak. But either way, now
I'm an insufferable dinner guest. Thank you parents, h Andrew.
What's something you think is overrated since we're talking about food.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
Yes, my overrated is actually I will I will walk
back some of the stuff. All the stuff we just
did is a little overrated. Hating on like white people
versions of food. I really I made before I.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Think, Oh did I fuck man? Okay, okay, well what's
your example?
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Because I remember you saying something about like we go
to I felt like a while back you're saying like
we too hard on white people's versions of stuff, and
oh well.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
So here's what I did is this weekend I got
a little bored and I had chicken breast in the house,
which is I had boneless, skinless chicken breast in the
house because okay, two things.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
When is I made this is? This is going to
blow your mind.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
The best chicken stock recipe is chicken breast, boneless, skinless
or otherwise you can you can do a little bone
what chicken breast and aromatics in the instant pot is
shockingly the best chicken stock.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
I guess technically, where are the where are the bones?
Where are the skin? Where? What the fuck are we
talking about?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Do not know? But I promise you it's so good
it will blow your mind.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
I'm actually fucking that you're even saying this goes against
it all of philosophically, everything I thought I knew about
cooking and the way I cook.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
I'm basically giving you the same pitch that the person
who sold me others rest if it did was, like,
I know, I know, it will make you mad. This
goes counter to literally everything you've ever learned. But I
swear to God it works, and it really did.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
We're talking like a Mirpa kind of thing, like you
got even.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
I just used veggie scraps in my freezer, like I
canicually save for veggie broth. But I took a boneless,
skinless chicken breast, browned it in the instant pot, took
it out, browned my veggie scraps, put the chicken breast
on top water instant pot for forty five minutes, Let
it cool, naturally, straight the fuck out of it.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Yeah, if you want.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
I mean, it's already pretty flavorless, but the chicken breast is.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
If you're making like a soup. In my case, I
was making Manziball.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Soup for a sodor style dinner.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Yeah, common, non religious, but.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
You celebrating the occasion, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I will say this.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
I also made a brisket.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
I think the passover sador, the traditional like you know,
European Ish passive orsador is like my favorite food holiday
like you.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Like bars it and stuff too.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Yeah, I like, I like herosat.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
I like I like a gafilter fish from the jar
with motherfucking horse radish, so good.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I love all of it anyway.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Herost with horse radish on a piece of matza.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
I put all of it together. You do that real?
I'm a real like mash it all together?
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Yeah, I get I get nasty at anyway, So you
made this so okay, So what do you do with
the chicken out after you make them? Stock?
Speaker 3 (15:31):
So you can so in case I shredded and put
it back into also put a mad duck fat instead
of vegetable oil in the mansa balls.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
They're very dense but very good.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Oh so you're not even using like traditional schmaltz.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
You're kind of little Well, I had duck fat for yellow.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Want to know anyway, The point is, uh, so that's
the chicken broth recipe. But also I had boneless, skinless
fucking chicken breast in my fridge, so I was like,
you know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna Chinese American
like chicken and broccoli, and I fucking like velveted that
ship with like baking soda and corn starch and like
all this business.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
And I have to say, I was like, that's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Damn.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Okay, okay, I said, if this is a repeat, I'm.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Sorry, No, no, this isn't. This is not. This is not,
this is not. And now I'm I'm I don't have
an instant pot. I never did, so it's not like
I can make a I lost one in the fire joke. Yeah,
but I'm in the market for that and an air
fryer because I didn't have an air I never had
an air fryer either, because I'm just so like old
(16:38):
school with the way I I'm not old school, I
just never got one.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
I'm an unbelievable hater on air friers and I do
not own one, but I have I have come to
understand that they're quite good.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Yeah yeah, well, but good for that.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
I'm a hater, as you can tell. I'm a fucking
like look, look, i'm a professional.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
The table the o, so my overrated I'm just gonna
go ahead since we're just contradicting ourselves with our overrateds
from the underrated. H Yeah, like you were saying, fuck
up your algorithm, do something different. My overrated is going
to concerts for the genres you love only and not
branching out because I went to a fucking metal show.
I saw Machuga and Cannibal Corpse on Wednesday. And my
(17:22):
boy is super into metal. Like one of my old
roommates who I used to work with in politics, he
put me onto like a lot of metal and I
was always like, bro, this is not for me, and
he's like, dude, it's He's like if you actually under
like you like music, like musicianship, He's like, yeah, listen
to what they're playing and listen to how they're playing it,
like listen to the like you fuck with good drumming,
(17:42):
listen to this. And I was like hooked. I was
like damn, like this shit is fucking crazy to me.
And then after the fire, he was like, hey, dude,
I got his tickets, like we can go see my shuga.
He's like, you know, like you I always send you
tracks listen to, but we can go see the show.
And he's like, and they don't like, this will be
a good show to go to. I was like, A,
I don't know, but it's not really my vibe. And
then I'm like, I'm like, fuck, I don't even know.
(18:04):
I don't even know what my vibe is anymore. So
I said, let's go, dude. It was so fucking dope
to see because like just being in that completely different environment.
I mean I remember going to like metal kind of
is shows like where people were mashing when I was
like younger, but the way this circle pit opened up
during like these two acts I was I was just
(18:25):
like everything was very stimulating in this very interesting way,
and it really just gave me a different dimension because
I think it's like anything right when we kind of
like look at genres of music or the fans of
genres of music, you're like, oh yeah, it's all kind
of like this way or whatever. And sure, maybe visually
like the aesthetic is that, but then you go and
you kind of like are talking to people and just
seeing what's up, and it's like it's just anyway, shout out,
(18:47):
shout out people, shout out all genres of music except
for ones where there's like actively racist people at them.
This shit was just so fun and getting out of
your comfort zone, especially with music, I think is a
really easy way to like give yourself a quick expansion,
like like travel. Does you know what I mean? It
feels like travel in this really weird way when you
go and really kind of like find a genre you're
(19:09):
kind of curious about, because don't subject yourself to music
you can't stand. That's gonna be just not enjoyable.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Below.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Yeah, if you think if you dabble and you're like, oh,
that kind of sounds good, just go check it out.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
It's gonna listen.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
It a tallow disco plus metal, is what we're saying here. Yeah,
I do not have the same relationship to music that
you do. I feel like on a like connoisseurce ship level.
But what I have been trying to do is just
like shimmy my shoulders a little bit. It's strongly inspired
by this TV show and it.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Helps a lot.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Dude, shimmy gotta shame you gotta let your big toast
shoot up in your boot.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
We we this is listen.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
The viewers are suffering because this is not a video episode,
but but we we're just we've been.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Doing this thing.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
It looks like that at the Roxbury Yeah plus middle age.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
All right, yeah, when those over under, we got to
keep your neck limber because my traps are like killing
you right now, all right, we'll come right back to
tell you about the news after this.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
And we are back. I always think of this tweet
where it must have been a brit who tweeted it
because it said you can't spell tariffs without ffs uh.
For fuck's sake, because my god, so many one eighties,
three sixties, seven twenties, ten eighties. We don't know what
which direction we were ever oriented in when it comes
to tariffs, not we the president. So just days after
(20:38):
we all found out that Apple flew like five cargo
planes ak six hundred tons of iPhones to the US
to avoid the tariffs, the Trump administration like randomly and
quietly issued an exemption to China's quote reciprocal tariffs, but
just for electronics like cell phones, in computers, in other words,
(20:59):
the country's most valuable export. And you're like, oh, okay,
that's that. That that's good, I think right. The move, also,
I think should be noted, would also benefit big tech
companies like Apple, Samsung, and chip makers like Nvidia. All
people who have tried to sidle up to to Trump
(21:20):
over the last year.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
Well, and and also the people who the like fucking
four companies that really make up the reality of the
stock market. So helping them gives the like simple s
and p five hundred pumps.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
I wonder how many people are like telling Trump it's like, dude,
in Vidia cannot crash. Dude that whole AI fucking bubble
Ye advise on a few different factors, and that's a
big one. Well he's I mean, he's surrounded by like
bitcoin bros. So like, yeah, but I think so anyway,
I think, yeah, we have no idea what the fuck
he's thinking. Because then so Howard Lutnik was on TV
(21:58):
and he was basically suggesting iPhone. You know, we looked
at this clip where he was being like they got
to be made in the US, you know, like where
they got the millions of screws or people that put
in tiny screws. But then he contradicted himself later like
because then automation will do all that and Elon's robots,
and you're like, is are we tiny screwing or the
robots doing it for us?
Speaker 2 (22:16):
But also like these guys talk so much shit.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
But like, you know, for considering that, they're the fucking
like facts, don't care about your feelings.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
People like yeah what robots, dog can't do shit?
Speaker 1 (22:31):
I know, they're like the one that kim Ka laid
down with in an ad. Yeah, that's not.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Even close that happening for They can keep talking science
fiction if they want, but like, this is not real.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
I so like, yeah, it must be cool to be
like a boomer where that shit is so magical to
you and you think it's happened because like it is
said with this like gee whiz kind. Yeah's robots, Yeah,
like they really believe it. Yeah, yeah, maybe he's like
Elon showed me a clip on his phone of like
a robot fucking doing screws. It was amazing.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
But no, I mean that's the thing is the country
is being run by people who because they were voted
in by these people who can be fooled by Facebook videos.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
They can be fooled by another man showing them a
video on their phone.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
And accept that as reality.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Yeah, that's like the bar for a lot of these people. Then,
following the exemption news, let Nick then told ABC that
it was only temporary and that the same products will
be subject to quote semiconductor tariffs in a quote month
or two. It's just like so wild. Everyone's like, where
where the fuck are we at? Of course this is
(23:42):
all just pointless because these tariffs that are upending global
trade in the economy. Turns out, at this moment, or
at at least as of this weekend, the reporting was
that these tariffs aren't even being collected because the US
Customs and Border Protection quote an entry code in the
US system for American ships we used to have they're
freight exempted from tariffs isn't working. So a glitch is
(24:04):
now saying we're not even collecting fucking tariffs. Setport.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
Well, that's the awesome thing too, is like, listen, the
one thing I bring to the table I think that
maybe not a lot of your guests or people in
the podcast world, is like, I spent my twenties being
a bad computer programmer. I literally wrote code that was
like good enough to keep me employed, but was objectively bad, right,
And I know bad coder is when I see it.
(24:28):
And all this dose shit is just a bunch of
fucking software clouds who are bad at that. You're not
even bad at their job. What's the road. What's the road, like,
what's the gateway? What's like the Pokemon evolution of a
code or to end up at doge Like where are
these people starting? What are they even trying to? Like,
what are they pursuing? What's their dream job?
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Is just to right shitty code or code is just
like the means to the end I think.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
I mean, these guys are probably like fucking Silicon Valley
like software guys because they're on their twenties.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Like the road is short, the road is short.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
They were you know, probably like just like Nazis on
like gethub comments sections and are willing to do this
like like that's the thing is like then the number
one job requirement is willing to do that because like
none of it is technical. They're like like the thing
(25:23):
that impresses Elon Moore is not like, oh this code
is bug bug free, even because like when he started
at Twitter, he was like I'll personally be reviewing the
code and it's like, no, you want you And even
if you were good, you're not a fucking engineer like
like what you dickhead?
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Like yeah, of course, Like.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
So like these guys like but he's impressed by the
Silicon Valley culture of like oh shit, we like we
slept in our offices and we've been eating pizza for
nine days straight, like you know, corporate pizza, but like
none of the actual like engineering or realizing that like
this shit takes time.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Like he thinks hacking.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Is just like tap tap tapping at the thing and
being like, I'm.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
In even I think he think hacks. He probably thinks
hacking is just wearing really tiny sunglasses.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Yeah, yeah, that's it.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
He's like, dude, look at these little fucking lenses. I
got shout out Jamie loftus cosplays.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
So like like I think I suspect.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Look, I don't fucking know.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
I'm sure these guys were like good at one guy
called big Balls. Yeah, they're not on like working on
a timeline where like it matters. They're just like like
hatching shit, breaking stuff like if it works, it works.
If not, like oops, will like fix it later. But
the thing is, it's like you know these these small
(26:40):
mistakes these days have consequences and like to go fast
break things. It's like, well, you're breaking things that are
permanently broken and are like even even these marginal like
say they fix this tariff code in a couple of days.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
That's fucking billions of dolls.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Yes, gone, thank god they're not. But either way, it's
still affecting the economy at large.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
But oh wait, just so you know, on fucking Sunday,
President brain Rot got on his fucking Fisher Price phone
and decided to blast this message out. Quote, there was
no tariff exception. These products are subject to the existing
twenty percent fentanyl tariffs and they are just moving to
a different tariff bucket. Okay, dude, I just want to know.
(27:29):
I like, where is the signal chat where I can
get on to find out where all the oligarchs get
their heads ups on when to buy or dump stock?
Because this shit is still to open at this point.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Here's the thing. You're liable to get added to that shit.
I know, I'm just.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Merely saying it out loud, like with all the probably
surveillance tech, like I can work the algorithms. Yeah, you
have been very add miles to Secret Signal Group. I
know you're add to ballers on the stock Market Crew
Group thread on Signal Now, all right, then, the Supreme
(28:07):
Court kind of told Trump to bring back kilmar Abrego Garcia,
the innocent father of three from Maryland who was taken
away to El Salvador to a torture prison. So then
shit got pedantic. So basically, the court ruled that the
Trump administration had to facilitate the return of the innocent man.
Then it got pedantic as the White House then said
(28:29):
they only had to facilitate and not effectuate their return. Saturday,
things escalated further when the administration had to go to
court to let the judge know what steps were being
taken to return Abrego Garcia to the United States. They
basically just said, we ain't doing shit, bro, you can't
really do nothing about it. This is what one of
(28:49):
the lawyers said when they were asked what steps have
been taken to return this man. This is how the
answer quote. It is my understanding, based on official reporting
from our embassy in San Salvador, that Abrego Garcia is
currently being held in the terrorism Confinement Center in El Salvador.
He is alive and secure in that facility. He has
detained pursue it to the sovereign domestic authority of El Salvador.
(29:09):
So sorry, my honor, they are sovereign nation. We respect
sovereign nations and the sovereignty of all nations, and we
can't make them do anything. Therefore shrug emoji. This is
like dark for so many reasons, But the two that
really stick out are that what is really going on
with Kilmar Abrego Garcia? Is he missing? Is he alive still?
(29:32):
What is the like? That's what are they delaying because
they don't know where he's at or what the state
of him is. But and also at the same time,
because it can be both or either, they definitely want
to probably set a precedent here that disappearing people in
the country without due process and saying that once they're
off us soil ah, we can't do anything about it.
(29:53):
They want to sort of cross that rubicon, and if
they listen to the judge, then they sort of they
lose that tactic. And the one thing we know is
President Bukele of El Salvador will do or say whatever
Trump wants, And in fact, on Monday he's visiting Trump
for whatever reason. I think, maybe just to rub it
in people's faces, or maybe Bukeles like, hey, how are
we going to play this one?
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Bro?
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Like what the fuck you're gonna do here?
Speaker 3 (30:15):
But yeah, very very grim I mean this plus the
like tariff's business too, though, is at like to the
extent that there is a tiny shred of a silver
lining here, is that like as much power as like
Trump and trumpsm wields domestically and internationally, there are pieces
(30:35):
of international like like you know, not Ol Salvador, but
China doesn't have.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
To go along with you know, just craziness.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Yeah, like you know, you can all die together, motherfucker.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Yeah, Russia doesn't have to, and so like, and you
watch them like get bogged down in the details.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Like Trump likes making proclamations.
Speaker 3 (30:55):
He does not like talking about different tariff buckets, or
like the difference between facilitate and effectuating.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Yeah yeah, yeah, So like you.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
Know, obviously this is bad and worse than the first
Trump one.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
But the thing that really did happen last time is
he very clearly got bored with the bureaucracy and like,
you know, not that damage can't be done, but that
is sort of what it is weird watching them sort
of get smothered by bureaucracy, like rightful bureaucracy and like
not even just bureaucracy, just rules.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Yeah, and they're trying to push through. I mean, that's
definitely clear because they I think they to your point,
like they knew that's what held things up a lot
last time. And now they're like, well, if we're going
to go full mask off, like we got to get
ahead of it. But they there's still a few roadblocks.
I hope, Well it helps.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
It helps that they're dumb, and it helps that like
reality is not on their side, like what are they
actually going to do. They're still like they're like, I mean, look,
they are taking us with them, but they are wiley
coyote several paces off the edge of the cliff at
this point, and they just need to keep pumping their
legs than running.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
I know, but we're all tethered to it is the problem.
And as this happens, you know, he's also like sort
of intimating that they're talking about disappearing American citizens just
as quickly.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Yeah, he'll do that for sure.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
So I don't know. I mean, like, but yeah, to
your point, like even with all the tough guy projection
that they're doing, like behind the scenes, they were begging
China to just ask for a call with Trump because
clearly they're the boss over here in the White House.
Is so seen now they're like, oh, he's not gonna
The only way he'll talk is if he thinks they
came to the table and like they we have to
(32:38):
figure out a way. And they begged and they're like, dude,
we're not calling Trump, We're not asking for a call.
You're fucking serious. Yeah, get fucked cool. It's also just
in the last bit of Trump news, and I swear
this is it. Maybe not he he got his annual
My doctor is a liar note this year aka his
physical exam. I just this, God fuck it. I don't
(33:03):
even want to fuck it's fucking stupid. The guy, the
doctor's lying and acting like his his frequent victories in
golf has helped keep his well contribute significantly to his
well being.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
But it's like it's good that it's a lie, because like,
who cares, Like this motherfucker is a decrepit, sad old man,
and yes, we are all going down with him, don't
get me wrong, but yeah, it's like like this is
just some some continual like sad, fucking like weird propaganda
(33:38):
that like ya, it doesn't fool anyone, But no one
is convinced by this, No except for his most most
unwell followers, but like what could possibly be said in
here that would change, like, like you know, it could
not make those people more enthusiastic about Trump, like like
they are at rapidly diminished returns on tuh.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
Yeah, especially like this last week with the amount of
like retirees that were maga retirees whore like, ah, I had,
I had money that I was going to live off of,
but that's I don't know. I mean, hopefully this leads
to some kind of like radicalizing event for people, not
fully radicalizing, but at least yeah, yeah, we'd have to
(34:25):
get pretty radical here. Yeah, shout out the square word symbol. Yeah,
all right, let's take a quick break. We'll come back
and talk about Coachella ella a a A And we're
(34:48):
back Coachella weekend one a k A. When the traffic
dies down just a little bit, just a little bit more,
did you do any did you do any long drives?
And go, oh, that's right, it's Coachella.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
It was like deep into Saturday. It was right fucking
old obviously, but like I truly was like, what the
fuck is happening? And someone on a group chat was like, well,
it's Coachella, and.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
I was like, ahh yeah, it's when the city finally
farts and that's the bad shit. Yeah yeah, go down
to Indio and let us let us the gut microbes replenish.
But yeah, apparently it was a rocky start there. Like
I saw videos of people in lines to do the
car camping the night before the festival started, twelve hour lines.
(35:33):
People were like doxing, like line cutters, like people who
were like yeah yeah, like getting in the lane and
then just cutting in line cutting. People were like, get this, motherfucker.
There's so many people doxing these line cuttered people. And
I get it. When you're in a line that's fucking
twelve hours and some dick just wants to snake in
when you're not paying attention, it's as.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Truly like hissing off. However, many hundreds of people that
you were going to be in a confined camp round, Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah,
it seems unwise.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
I feel like, yeah, especially if you're car camping, because look, bro,
people will do some dumb shit like let the air
out of your tires when you're at the festival. Like
I've seen I've kept collectively dumb shit, yeah, yeah, yeah,
big Catherine hanwin. But anyway, there were no porta potties around.
Some people said it was worse than Fire Festival, and
(36:26):
come on, now, at least they're an actual festival. Happened,
so let's let's not get too trim.
Speaker 3 (36:30):
Also, one hundred percent Coachella twenty twenty five attendees and
Fire Festival attendees a probably depressing amount of overlap.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
Oh yeah, it's one circle. It's one circle. It's not
a men diagram. How it's a circle?
Speaker 2 (36:44):
Was there any explanation on how it's possible it got worse?
Speaker 3 (36:47):
Like how could this thing that there's I actually do
not understand logistically how this could not be a well
oiled machine at this point.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
Like, how could it get worse? How can logistics get worse?
Speaker 1 (36:58):
But I feel like every year people have been, like
even last year, yeah, people have been were complaining. It's
probably just the lack of like real maybe i'd imagine,
like anything, lack of investment in the infrastructure and like
human infrastructure.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
To do this.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
Otherwise, I really don't know, And if you were there,
let us know. But it sounds like it was all
fucked up.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
The campground should have at this point fucking because that's
the same place where they do like stagecoach and all
this other shit like it should have like Disneyland level
like infrastructure.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
Yeah yeah, Like why what else is it gonna be?
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Ever?
Speaker 1 (37:40):
Yeah, I think they're just like, I don't know, there's
it's a banking operation at this point. But look, nobody
had to suck dick for evy on like at Fire Festival,
or at least you know, offer to do that. But
they still got to see people like Green Day and
Lady Gaga and also an eighty three year old man
fashioning a kayak out of wood. Oh I mean denouncing fascism. Yes.
(38:04):
Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella, introducing Clara
the Artist and warning the crowd the future of what
happens to America is dependent upon your generation. And when
he brought up Trump, everyone booed. And that was Coachella.
(38:25):
I don't know how many I don't know how many
of those people in the audience completely absorbed the message,
because I feel like maybe the rally you were at
earlier this weekend in La with AOC that had almost
forty thousand people at it, those people were probably listening
to every word. These people that were going, they were
probably so fucked up on Malli that they were wondering
why there was no more music playing during the while
(38:45):
they were peaking. Oh yeah, Okay.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
There's also the.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
Fact that, like again, the Coachella twenty twenty five crowd
is probably comprised of a depressingly high amount of the famous.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
You know, Mega gen z. Oh yeah, yeah yeah, and
like the type of influencers who are just like calling
on crypto and whatever. So anyway, I don't know, people
seem to a bloo at the right time, so I
guess we can take that as a positive. But also,
you know, like fuck it, get in front of as
many people, even if you're not listening, let him know.
(39:20):
Shit's fucked y'all. And like, yeah, I mean, maybe it
is a good message, Like hey, I hate to fucking
ruin Coachella for you guys, but there's some serious shit
if you want to chella it up, you know, the
in the foreseeable future. Maybe or not. I don't know,
just I don't know.
Speaker 3 (39:37):
I mean, listen, all of my political instincts, well, all
of my political judgments have always been correct, but my
political instincts have always been incorrect, right exactly. So I
always know who the Nazis are. I just don't know
what to do about it.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
I just don't know how to talk to them, talk
to the aspiring ones. So then while this was happening,
you know, he made a huge speed uh. Like the
New York Posts said, They're like, oh, they said his
remarks were quote a ranting speech, but then they were
like Trump though thrills crowds at the UFC fight in Florida. Yeah,
(40:13):
there was an interesting moment here. He brought Marco Rubio
RFK Junior and a man who is always in constant shock,
Cash Patel, along with Ted Cruz as like his entourage.
I think the one notable moment that I think people
may have saw over the weekend was he was going
and like greeting some of the cabinet members and like
(40:34):
said what's up to like RFK Junior, but then snubbed
Cheryl Hines totally. Yeah, this was I'm just trying to
like frame by frame this. He gives him a hug, just.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
Woo, and Cheryl Hines does the Hollywood like what the fuck?
Speaker 1 (40:48):
Yeah, I mean she tried, she said, oh, hi, huh,
maybe not he did that shit. He looked at her
and said, no, I'm quol on this shit. A lot
of people put Curb the Curb.
Speaker 2 (40:59):
Game over that we haven't needed a season nineteen of Kurb.
Speaker 1 (41:04):
I know that, Cheryl. Cheryl, Cheryl, look what you did.
You thought you could play both sides. You thought you
could say your little skincare and also be like, I
disagree with my husband, mister brainworms, and then try and
shake the president's hand. Bro Yeah, nobody fucking with You're
just sorry, Cheryl, And in this case, just like when
(41:26):
you and Larry got divorced in the show. Sorry, miss Cheryl,
We're going with mister Larry. Yeah, you know, we're going
with mister.
Speaker 3 (41:34):
My tiny contribution to this is the tag that the
pro hitler UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell to get choked out.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
This somebody caught him talking trash about walking out of
Anger Management early because whoever he fuds it, Oh you're
a tough guy, put his ass two s L E E. P.
Sleep Yeah, you love to.
Speaker 3 (41:57):
But I do want to say not just pro hitler
in the way that I, you know, will casually call
people fascist. This guy actually is on record talk about
how much he likes it.
Speaker 1 (42:06):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, big, big time, big time.
Brian the Editor asked, why do we assume Cheryl Hines
is liberal because she talks she's always couched her like
love of RFK, because they're like, you're you're you're giving liberal.
You show up at these places and espouse these things,
but your husband is completely antithetical to it. And she
was doing this whole thing over this time. She's like,
(42:27):
while I disagree with my husband's views, or while I
disagree with blah blah blah, she's just doing the writing
the needle thing. I mean, I mean, yeah, to your point,
she probably is not, and for the optics tries to
do it. But either way, she wants to present.
Speaker 3 (42:43):
As she's like liberal in the sense that she's like
a contemporary American Democrat, which means she's like sort of
center right as far as like most economic things go,
most like governance things go, and is a little more
distasteful about homophobia exact most.
Speaker 1 (43:02):
She's okay, sorry to put it in this way, she's
one of those like like liberals who's quote, as long
as my money's right, I don't really care.
Speaker 3 (43:09):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, she's a Santa Monica liberal, right, which
if you're she's a conservative, if you're judging on.
Speaker 1 (43:17):
Earth, a Santa Monica liberal who hates unhoused people and
is anti Fax. That is basically what that like.
Speaker 3 (43:24):
When you describe that in like a global political framework,
that's a conservative in America, it happens that that's on
the liberal side of fifty to fifty media.
Speaker 1 (43:34):
And again, if you just want to hear Bryce Mitchell,
this is this is what he was saying in January.
Just again like you were saying, Andrew, not like he's
dabbles in it. He's out here full throat endorsing Hitler.
Speaker 4 (43:47):
Hitler, Helen, the Nazis. I really don't think that he was,
because I honestly think that Hitler was a good guy
based upon my own research, not my public education indoctrination.
I really do think before Hitler got on myth, he
was a god go fishing with.
Speaker 1 (44:04):
You heard it here, folks. Hey, you know what sucks though,
Price Man, I get that. Man. How many homies do
we know? He said? Man, before he got on meth,
he was somebody we could go fishing with.
Speaker 2 (44:16):
True.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
The next thing you know, we're out here trying to
asking me to go to a party. He pulls up
to a construction site, Hey, asking me how much fucking
copper wiring can I pull out with my bare hands? No,
we're not doing that.
Speaker 3 (44:26):
Blaming blaming uh, meth, meth or or like yeah, for
for the actions of Adolf Hitler was really, I mean,
without without getting too into it, every one of those
motherfuckers and everyone until somewhere around Jimmy Carter was on
meth right exactly.
Speaker 1 (44:46):
Let's not blame the meth you know what I mean,
that's meth got shipped done. Yeah, hey, honestly based on
my own research. Oh my god, he looked at a
fucking meme. Yeah, boy boy? Howdy?
Speaker 2 (45:04):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (45:04):
And then finally, did you see I guess I should
ask you before I hit the short? Did you see
the SNL White Lotus White Potus sketch?
Speaker 4 (45:11):
Im?
Speaker 2 (45:11):
So I missed it? I usually you're wearing recording during
my catching up on SNL.
Speaker 4 (45:18):
No.
Speaker 1 (45:18):
No, and look, people know people know me. I'm I
miss this shit too. This is the problem. I was
gonna watch the sketch, but I'm so I'm dragging my
carcass through watching this season a White Lotus because it's
so uninteresting to me that like part of me wanted
to avoid it in case there's spoilers. And then I
was just like, then when I saw Amy lou Wood
(45:40):
post how she was like, man, bro, this ship was trash, bro.
They're just trying to fucking make fun of me, like
in the wrong ways. I was like, oh, never mind, maybe, eh, whatever,
I don't need to combine the two things that are
no pleasure right now, White Lotus and the tariffs in
one sketch.
Speaker 2 (45:56):
Never nah, I'll pass.
Speaker 3 (45:59):
I I'm gonna pick my words about White Lotus, but
I just I wish uh White Lotus had more a
more diverse writer's room, which is, by the way, to say,
any writer's room, but a more diverse writer's room.
Speaker 1 (46:16):
Is it just Mike White all the time? Is this him?
Speaker 2 (46:18):
I don't know about this season, but I believe it mostly. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (46:21):
I mean the way he lost, the way this thing
has just you can see it lose momentum over the seasons.
You're like season one, You're like, okay, we got a
little commentary. Now we're talking about Americans from the mainland
coming to Hawaii. Maybe there's some tension there. Then it
felt like Mike White's like, that's kind of too much
thinking what about what about Italy? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (46:42):
I just I again, I just I think this is
a show that like really really really could benefit from
more viewpoints. Yeah, because I'll just say season one of
White lotus my actual favorite characters, and to me, the
characters that would matter the most had their storylines concluded
(47:03):
off camera, which is the two native employees. Number one,
the lady who shows up on her due date in
the pilot just here that she gave birth, and then
the employee dude who was like part of the like heist.
I was like, these two are the people. These two
are the people the story is about exactly in my opinion.
(47:23):
They're like, well, what about the girls who talk like
sort of gen Z podcast brain people who like Mike
White was like told, yeah, what's her face?
Speaker 2 (47:33):
Sweeny sweeny to like listen.
Speaker 1 (47:35):
To Red Scare to like get the vibes down of
like what you want. And they're like, this is the
interesting part is all this other tension around thee.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
I just wish there was There's so much There's so
much more. There's so much more that I wish could
be in there. I will say if we're going to
pitch SNL. I believe it was from two weeks ago.
Echo Wodem did a shockingly long and amazing just stand
up routine during Weekend Update. That was just just her
(48:08):
doing an impression of like a you know, a stand
up comedian in all the ways that that can mean.
Speaker 1 (48:15):
Oh okay, it's I'm speaking of And you know there's
gonna be the Like UK spinoff now oh no, yeah?
Did you know? I did not? That's going to launch
next year, So it's like Lorne Michaels and it's like
Ashling b that has been tipped to be in it.
(48:37):
I don't know, I will see, I'll.
Speaker 3 (48:39):
Just I'll let me just say I think I've been
on the show enough that I may have already suggested
this also as a thing to enjoy.
Speaker 2 (48:46):
But I believe they did one season of Law and
Order UK and.
Speaker 3 (48:51):
It is, in my mind, one of the it's one
of the funniest cop procedurals I personally have ever seen
as someone who doesn't watch a ton of British cop procedurals,
which I know is a very funny thing, but to me,
it's so funny because in all the British ways.
Speaker 2 (49:06):
The cops don't have guns and the lawyers have to
wear wigs and it's so good.
Speaker 1 (49:10):
I know they're like arguing, like hold on, let me
put my fucking a little barrister cap on with my
curly white hairs.
Speaker 3 (49:16):
It's it's just the long court segment because the like
structure of it is the same as Law and Order America.
But it's just the things that make the British legal
says some different are so funny to me.
Speaker 1 (49:29):
Oh yeah, I love seeing like and I just love
though too how like ignorant. I just remember seeing it
every time, like why they gotta wear the wig and
then pardons? I think that's why maybe it's better, like
you gotta like can you be a shitty lawyer and
fuck around in court and be like a sleazy lawyer?
I'm sure, Hey, uk Zyking, let me know, Like it
must be so funny to see it, dude, be a
(49:49):
scumbag barrister like in court, like an ambulance chaser type lawyer,
but doing it with your little barrister cap like little
barrister wig on. Oh I I mean look it obviously though,
it is like just a reminder that this system is
made for white men.
Speaker 3 (50:04):
But in Law and Order UK, the thing that was
to me the funniest is the whatever their version of
the ada is. So in Law and Order America casting
it is almost always a very attractive woman. And in
Law and Order UK, I believe if I recall correctly,
I'm not going to look it up, it was a
uh a Nigerian British actress. So when she was wearing
(50:30):
the barrister's wig, it's, yeah, it's just so insane to me.
I know.
Speaker 1 (50:35):
That's what I'm always like when I see like the
barristers of color and I'm like, well, get them.
Speaker 3 (50:39):
Yes, you should be able, you should be able to
at least get color a texture.
Speaker 1 (50:44):
Pay does everybody look like they're about to fucking pull
up to George Washington in a fucking pistol rule? Like
why why is it? Whatever?
Speaker 3 (50:54):
It's like so weird because it's like it is just
like institutionalized white supremacy.
Speaker 2 (50:59):
But also it looks insane.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
Yeah, yeah, right, embarrass barristers, give us you give.
Speaker 2 (51:09):
Us glories, barrister, that's it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (51:14):
But yeah, I'm curious what a UK like. I wonder
who the writing is, what the writing is going to
be like, because there's I mean, I like like English comedies,
like UK comedies. I'm I'm definitely into it. So I
wonder if they're going to do the thing where they're like,
we just need to do you SNL but with accents
(51:35):
and keep the same style, with British sensibility, that minimalism.
Speaker 3 (51:40):
My wish, of course is that like the American SNL,
it will be made by unbelievably talented people, but every
now and again have a bizarre right wing viewpoint that
is very clearly put in by the producers.
Speaker 1 (51:53):
Yeah, some weird like Bregs. Wasn't so bad? Was it?
Kind of sketch? I guess can heard what's happening over here.
That's what I don't like. People, you don't want you.
Speaker 3 (52:03):
We talked a lot of shit about Brexit. Yeah look
what we did, and we ripped off our own nose
in front of everyone.
Speaker 1 (52:10):
Uh, what a time? What a time? All right, y'all, Well,
that's gonna wrap it up for what we were covering
in terms of what trended over the weekend. Bits of
ups and downs for everybody. But yeah, andrew T, thank
you so much for joining me. We are going to
be back tomorrow with a brand new episode, a whole episode.
You're gonna love it, and we'll be back to doing
(52:30):
all the usual things that we do. Baby. And guess what,
we will have the return of Jack this week, and
I will hold him responsible for the you know, escalating
costs of global.
Speaker 3 (52:43):
Let me hold eighteen point five million dollars real quick, Yeah,
that's specific eighteen Give me eighteen point five mil.
Speaker 2 (52:49):
Just just let me hold it for like two weeks.
Speaker 1 (52:51):
Just what's eight eighteen point you're gonna invest that you got?
Speaker 2 (52:55):
Don't worry about it, don'torry about all right?
Speaker 1 (52:57):
Sorry, bro, Here, I'll let you know. I'll send you
some screenshots from the signal chat I'm in I got
added to apparently, but it's pretty cool stuff happening in there.
All right, y'all. That will do it for us. We
will see you then, have a great day.
Speaker 2 (53:07):
Bye.
Speaker 1 (53:08):
Peace,
Well, what's your Is that a Loong June shirt?
Speaker 2 (00:06):
What does it say?
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Bong June? Oh just just Bong June hope, okay, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
It's probably very possibly AI generated off of that sea, but.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
It is at this point, you know.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Ten thousand Bank June Hoe. At least it's images, it's clips.
Actually you know what, it probably wasn't, but it was
probably algorithmically generated by Yeah. Yeah, like you put in
twenty images of Bong June Hoe and it does the text.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
But you bought that outside the Magic Johnson Theater.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Yeah, I know it does look like yeah, like you
came out of what Mickey Mickey seventeen.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
I did wear this to Mickey seventeen, but I put
up and someone's like, yo, I got them right here.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Bro to one for twenty two for thirty Hey Internet,
how you doing, good morning, good to see you, good
to hear from you. It's uh, you know, season three
eighty four, episode one of the data. But look, we
call this what happened What the hell happened over the
weekend trending episode where we catch up on all the
(01:03):
nonsense and what the heck's going on? Yeah, yeah, what
the heck? What the heck's going on. Uh look, Jack
will be back soon, but hey, it's still me in
the place to be with my main co hosts, Andrew T.
Thank you Andrew T for joining me on this Tea
n D episode of dz Okay. I'm done.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I didn't. I didn't want you to keep going.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
I thought we finally deposed the white Man and now
we rule as we see fit.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, we did, we did, only for him to return.
It's funny because every time Jack goes out of town
is something cataclysmic happens. Like last time it was the
first assassination attempt on Trump and the debate. There's that
Joe Biden debate where I was like, did the airplane
or what film is that where everyone does a forehead slap.
It's one of those Zucker movies. Yeah, yeah, maybe it's
like airplane airplane or naked gun or some shit. And
(01:54):
then this time we got tariff fuck fest. He's got
a lot to answer, He's got a lot.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
I mean, it does feel like like basically Jack takes
off for his market manipulation summits, and then every time Jack.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Leaves, he makes three hundred million dollars in the stock market.
I don't know. I just don't know. And never he
never lets me in on any of these tips. But anyway,
here we are telling you what's trending. Before we get
to what the news was. We like to open our
hearts and minds to you. Zeichkang, let you know what's
overrated and underrated in our minds. Guests first, Andrew T,
(02:30):
what is something you think is underrated?
Speaker 3 (02:32):
You know what I'm I'm losing faith that I haven't
said this already, but I'll say it again. I'm just
completely fucking your Spotify algorithm. Oh just like, listen to
for one day a month, just listen to some shit
you would never listen to, right, just so like and
it really mixes it up. And not that even that
this is music I find like bad. It's just music
(02:53):
I don't really listen to. But the show Common Side
Effects has I don't know if you've ever heard of it. Yeah,
HBO and twim Max whatever has for the first time,
I think the only two good cops in UH cinematic
televised history. These two cops named Campano and Harrington, who
(03:19):
love like seventies disco, like electronica, funk ish type stuff
and anyway, Almost every one of their scenes opens with
them discussing like music esoterica before they get into like
their like stakeout business. Yeah, Tallow disco producer Brian's talking
(03:40):
about it's it's true and it is it is like
like it's so nicely worked into the animation. There's always
doing a little shoulder shimmy like every time they're talking. Anyway,
someone on Spotify made a playlist of their like the
music they're discussing. Yeah, so this weekend I had that
(04:01):
on repeat, and you know it's I'll.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Just I'll just look at this playlist.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Now we got like Jumped the Line by Harry Belafonte,
Nothing Too Crazy rescut by Bony m Oh Yeah, Let's
see You, Sexy Thing by Hot Chocolate War Edwin Starr,
which also underrated, just admonishing society in your in your
ad libs when when Edwin Star says good God, y'all,
(04:27):
it's really.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
But like I think this era of music, it's like
music I like, but I don't like listen to a lot. Sure,
and just like one weekend of playing this Compano and
Harrington playlist really refreshed my my suggestions on Spotify. So
I think in general, algorithm fucking just like make sure
they don't know who you are.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
And you know, it's so funny, Like I now that
I've now that I'm doing midlife cris DJ stuff as
my new hobby, I have like an entire other YouTube
account that I watch a bunch of DJ kind of
stuff on because I'm like, I don't want to poison
my other algorithm that I have, Like I have algorithm
silos basically where I keep it clean. I'm like, this
(05:15):
is just a nerd out on cooking and dejaying. Yeah,
and then but the thing about the algorithm one, it
is wild because there are times when I let her
majesty like play something because she refuses to get Spotify.
She's like, I'm fine using like the free things that
are late chok full of ads, and she loses her mind.
She like, I can't do this, and I'm like, why
(05:36):
don't we just do Like I'll just add you to
the counch. No, I don't need Spotify, just let me
use yours. And it fucks my algorithm up bad like,
and it is music I'm not really like into or
want to hear because I listen to a ton of music,
and I like it, like bringing new stuff that I
like all the time. I feel like when that happens,
it feels like whatever's happening with the economy right now,
(05:57):
It's like, with just this one moment in time with
the tariffs, you can completely fuck up your algorithm for.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
At least but Miles, here's my pitch to you. Okay,
it makes you a more active listener to like to
have your algorithm and even if you hate.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Something, move on from it. And I genuinely think.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
You know you're not gonna do it, and you shouldn't
because you have your system. But I am saying for
the people, no.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
No, I'm I'm not saying. I'm just saying I have
scram your data.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Scramble your data as much as you can. Just just
throw in, throw in a Joe Roken experience, every like
one hundredth podcast.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Listen that way, you.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Gotta know what they're saying. You got they're saying because
you like it.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
It truly it's it's so.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I I genuinely find it to be because like every time,
like Instagram or anyone advertises to me, I take some
small comfort in how wrong they are.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
They genuinely do not have to do a.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Thing where like you won't because like out of some
weird like paranoia from like watching Enemy of the State
or like conspiracy in the nineties, Like you won't do
things on the internet. This this makes sense, Like you don't.
You don't want to feed an algorithm a certain thing
you might be interesting because you're trying to keep some
of your cars.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
I probably should have. I think I think we all.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Anyone who's listening to this podcast, Anyone who didn't set
up like a VPN account to download the MP three
onto a cold storage and listen to this on a
separate device, has already given too.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Much of the algorithm.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
So I mean that That's what I'm saying is like
you've already put too much out here. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Yeah, So the only way.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
To obfuscate yourself is to flood the zone with guard shit.
Yeah yeah yeah, because you can't, like you can't take
back what you've already put out there, right, But what
you can do is make them wrong about who they are.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
To throw them off the scent. Yeah, everybody challenge throw
them off the scent. I'm like, I'm one going to
be watching some weird shit about ship.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Don't I should heavily asterisk this with I don't know
what I'm talking about, but.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
That's we should heavily ask this entire show with that.
But hey, people are here for the for the vibes,
you know, not the facts. It's all about vibes. Were
dealing vibes here. My underrated is crawfish end the story. Really,
it's the season. It's crawfish season. Well, no, this is
when you get fresh crawfish because a lot of times
(08:31):
other times you're getting frozen crawfish. This is when it's fresh.
And if you like a good crawfish like I do
and our mutual friend Kevin does you know, we like
to get we like to eat some mudbugs. I just
keep I just realized that we were like in the
height of like we're approach, like we're in the midst
of the best time for crawfish, and I just got excited,
(08:51):
and I just I just like, I think it's about
it's about a communal table with a bunch of weird
carcasses that you just rip through and disc hard, you know,
to metaphor yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
I I find it a little frustrating eating crawfish with
some folks. I eat.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
I mean, clearly something's wrong with me.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
But I have a very much like if you don't
eat it my way, you're eating it wrong.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Okay, what's your I mean just like thing, yeah, just
like they're like, oh, you should maybe separate the tail,
and just.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Like, nah, nah I do. I am fully onto.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I have not left a shrimp shell or any portion
of shrimp on a plate in going on ten years.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Now.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I eat if it's a shell, I take the outer
part off, but I always eat the tail.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Yeah, not meat, dog, you eat.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
The outer part.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Two.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I like the little I like the shrimp meat because
then I get my crunchies from the tail, you know
what I mean. And then I'm definitely eating the fucking
head the skull.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
This was like, this was like an uh a, this
was me trying to prove a point that I went
too far on.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
But like you'd like, watch this ship. Yeah yeah, yeah,
those are raw.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
It's I don't know, man, something something's wrong with me.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
But yeah, that's the thing, is I I am I
become like that dickhead that's like you have not sufficiently
sucked the head.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yeah I know, and I'm not.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
I'm yeah, I'm.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
The same way because I was also raised like with
my dad's family. Like my grandfather is a like he
had a barbecue restaurant and was always smoking really and
shit like that, and he would always comment on how
much meat people because obviously he's a black man from
the depression. He's like, he's like, boy, you better rake
that boney. He's like, there's still meat on there. And
(10:38):
I'm like, and then I took that with me into adulthood.
Now now I'm calling people out for not sufficiently raking
the bone. Right, Yeah, here, we're right.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Yeah, we just you just have to like pick your battles.
But we're right.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
And you know what, I pick every battle, and which
is the hard part. Every time there's a battle, I'm
picking it. I know. I never stand down, and that's
why people don't want to hang out with me anymore. Yeah,
I'm talking about, Oh.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
You can leave that cartilage. There's a cartilage on that bone.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
You think. It's also like being like I feel like
having immigrant parents also like sort of contributes to that
environment where you're it's like waste not want not kind
of thing.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I think, No, we eat that part immigrant.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
But also because like especially like like we're in like media,
which has like too much where we're we professionally and
probably socially are around I would say eight to fifteen
percent too many white people. So I think part of
the two is like really needing to like make your
market and remind me of yourself who you are.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Yeah, they're like no, because it's funny. My mom would
say shit like that growing up. She's like you, She's
like eat the tail. She's like, what are you American? Yeah,
like like America shaming, like ause, you know, shout out
my mom for her light America shame. She's like, look
at you cleaning those dishes, like you American that kind
of like leaving stuff, like not cleaning stuff sufficiently. The
(12:03):
slur was always oh, like yeah, it's really yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
I mean the like immigrant kid thing is the frustration
of like if you didn't want an American, why did
you come there?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Why? And then but then I know it's look, you're
putting all your America assimilation dreams onto me while also
being at odds with that dream at the same time,
and you're giving me double speak. But either way, now
I'm an insufferable dinner guest. Thank you parents, h Andrew.
What's something you think is overrated since we're talking about food.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
Yes, my overrated is actually I will I will walk
back some of the stuff. All the stuff we just
did is a little overrated. Hating on like white people
versions of food. I really I made before I.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Think, Oh did I fuck man? Okay, okay, well what's
your example?
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Because I remember you saying something about like we go
to I felt like a while back you're saying like
we too hard on white people's versions of stuff, and
oh well.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
So here's what I did is this weekend I got
a little bored and I had chicken breast in the house,
which is I had boneless, skinless chicken breast in the
house because okay, two things.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
When is I made this is? This is going to
blow your mind.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
The best chicken stock recipe is chicken breast, boneless, skinless
or otherwise you can you can do a little bone
what chicken breast and aromatics in the instant pot is
shockingly the best chicken stock.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
I guess technically, where are the where are the bones?
Where are the skin? Where? What the fuck are we
talking about?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Do not know? But I promise you it's so good
it will blow your mind.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
I'm actually fucking that you're even saying this goes against
it all of philosophically, everything I thought I knew about
cooking and the way I cook.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
I'm basically giving you the same pitch that the person
who sold me others rest if it did was, like,
I know, I know, it will make you mad. This
goes counter to literally everything you've ever learned. But I
swear to God it works, and it really did.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
We're talking like a Mirpa kind of thing, like you
got even.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
I just used veggie scraps in my freezer, like I
canicually save for veggie broth. But I took a boneless,
skinless chicken breast, browned it in the instant pot, took
it out, browned my veggie scraps, put the chicken breast
on top water instant pot for forty five minutes, Let
it cool, naturally, straight the fuck out of it.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Yeah, if you want.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
I mean, it's already pretty flavorless, but the chicken breast is.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
If you're making like a soup. In my case, I
was making Manziball.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Soup for a sodor style dinner.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Yeah, common, non religious, but.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
You celebrating the occasion, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I will say this.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
I also made a brisket.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
I think the passover sador, the traditional like you know,
European Ish passive orsador is like my favorite food holiday
like you.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Like bars it and stuff too.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Yeah, I like, I like herosat.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
I like I like a gafilter fish from the jar
with motherfucking horse radish, so good.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I love all of it anyway.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Herost with horse radish on a piece of matza.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
I put all of it together. You do that real?
I'm a real like mash it all together?
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Yeah, I get I get nasty at anyway, So you
made this so okay, So what do you do with
the chicken out after you make them? Stock?
Speaker 3 (15:31):
So you can so in case I shredded and put
it back into also put a mad duck fat instead
of vegetable oil in the mansa balls.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
They're very dense but very good.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Oh so you're not even using like traditional schmaltz.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
You're kind of little Well, I had duck fat for yellow.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Want to know anyway, The point is, uh, so that's
the chicken broth recipe. But also I had boneless, skinless
fucking chicken breast in my fridge, so I was like,
you know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna Chinese American
like chicken and broccoli, and I fucking like velveted that
ship with like baking soda and corn starch and like
all this business.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
And I have to say, I was like, that's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Damn.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Okay, okay, I said, if this is a repeat, I'm.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Sorry, No, no, this isn't. This is not. This is not,
this is not. And now I'm I'm I don't have
an instant pot. I never did, so it's not like
I can make a I lost one in the fire joke. Yeah,
but I'm in the market for that and an air
fryer because I didn't have an air I never had
an air fryer either, because I'm just so like old
(16:38):
school with the way I I'm not old school, I
just never got one.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
I'm an unbelievable hater on air friers and I do
not own one, but I have I have come to
understand that they're quite good.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Yeah yeah, well, but good for that.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
I'm a hater, as you can tell. I'm a fucking
like look, look, i'm a professional.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
The table the o, so my overrated I'm just gonna
go ahead since we're just contradicting ourselves with our overrateds
from the underrated. H Yeah, like you were saying, fuck
up your algorithm, do something different. My overrated is going
to concerts for the genres you love only and not
branching out because I went to a fucking metal show.
I saw Machuga and Cannibal Corpse on Wednesday. And my
(17:22):
boy is super into metal. Like one of my old
roommates who I used to work with in politics, he
put me onto like a lot of metal and I
was always like, bro, this is not for me, and
he's like, dude, it's He's like if you actually under
like you like music, like musicianship, He's like, yeah, listen
to what they're playing and listen to how they're playing it,
like listen to the like you fuck with good drumming,
(17:42):
listen to this. And I was like hooked. I was
like damn, like this shit is fucking crazy to me.
And then after the fire, he was like, hey, dude,
I got his tickets, like we can go see my shuga.
He's like, you know, like you I always send you
tracks listen to, but we can go see the show.
And he's like, and they don't like, this will be
a good show to go to. I was like, A,
I don't know, but it's not really my vibe. And
then I'm like, I'm like, fuck, I don't even know.
(18:04):
I don't even know what my vibe is anymore. So
I said, let's go, dude. It was so fucking dope
to see because like just being in that completely different environment.
I mean I remember going to like metal kind of
is shows like where people were mashing when I was
like younger, but the way this circle pit opened up
during like these two acts I was I was just
(18:25):
like everything was very stimulating in this very interesting way,
and it really just gave me a different dimension because
I think it's like anything right when we kind of
like look at genres of music or the fans of
genres of music, you're like, oh yeah, it's all kind
of like this way or whatever. And sure, maybe visually
like the aesthetic is that, but then you go and
you kind of like are talking to people and just
seeing what's up, and it's like it's just anyway, shout out,
(18:47):
shout out people, shout out all genres of music except
for ones where there's like actively racist people at them.
This shit was just so fun and getting out of
your comfort zone, especially with music, I think is a
really easy way to like give yourself a quick expansion,
like like travel. Does you know what I mean? It
feels like travel in this really weird way when you
go and really kind of like find a genre you're
(19:09):
kind of curious about, because don't subject yourself to music
you can't stand. That's gonna be just not enjoyable.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Below.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Yeah, if you think if you dabble and you're like, oh,
that kind of sounds good, just go check it out.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
It's gonna listen.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
It a tallow disco plus metal, is what we're saying here. Yeah,
I do not have the same relationship to music that
you do. I feel like on a like connoisseurce ship level.
But what I have been trying to do is just
like shimmy my shoulders a little bit. It's strongly inspired
by this TV show and it.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Helps a lot.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Dude, shimmy gotta shame you gotta let your big toast
shoot up in your boot.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
We we this is listen.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
The viewers are suffering because this is not a video episode,
but but we we're just we've been.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Doing this thing.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
It looks like that at the Roxbury Yeah plus middle age.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
All right, yeah, when those over under, we got to
keep your neck limber because my traps are like killing
you right now, all right, we'll come right back to
tell you about the news after this.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
And we are back. I always think of this tweet
where it must have been a brit who tweeted it
because it said you can't spell tariffs without ffs uh.
For fuck's sake, because my god, so many one eighties,
three sixties, seven twenties, ten eighties. We don't know what
which direction we were ever oriented in when it comes
to tariffs, not we the president. So just days after
(20:38):
we all found out that Apple flew like five cargo
planes ak six hundred tons of iPhones to the US
to avoid the tariffs, the Trump administration like randomly and
quietly issued an exemption to China's quote reciprocal tariffs, but
just for electronics like cell phones, in computers, in other words,
(20:59):
the country's most valuable export. And you're like, oh, okay,
that's that. That that's good, I think right. The move, also,
I think should be noted, would also benefit big tech
companies like Apple, Samsung, and chip makers like Nvidia. All
people who have tried to sidle up to to Trump
(21:20):
over the last year.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
Well, and and also the people who the like fucking
four companies that really make up the reality of the
stock market. So helping them gives the like simple s
and p five hundred pumps.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
I wonder how many people are like telling Trump it's like, dude,
in Vidia cannot crash. Dude that whole AI fucking bubble
Ye advise on a few different factors, and that's a
big one. Well he's I mean, he's surrounded by like
bitcoin bros. So like, yeah, but I think so anyway,
I think, yeah, we have no idea what the fuck
he's thinking. Because then so Howard Lutnik was on TV
(21:58):
and he was basically suggesting iPhone. You know, we looked
at this clip where he was being like they got
to be made in the US, you know, like where
they got the millions of screws or people that put
in tiny screws. But then he contradicted himself later like
because then automation will do all that and Elon's robots,
and you're like, is are we tiny screwing or the
robots doing it for us?
Speaker 2 (22:16):
But also like these guys talk so much shit.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
But like, you know, for considering that, they're the fucking
like facts, don't care about your feelings.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
People like yeah what robots, dog can't do shit?
Speaker 1 (22:31):
I know, they're like the one that kim Ka laid
down with in an ad. Yeah, that's not.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Even close that happening for They can keep talking science
fiction if they want, but like, this is not real.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
I so like, yeah, it must be cool to be
like a boomer where that shit is so magical to
you and you think it's happened because like it is
said with this like gee whiz kind. Yeah's robots, Yeah,
like they really believe it. Yeah, yeah, maybe he's like
Elon showed me a clip on his phone of like
a robot fucking doing screws. It was amazing.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
But no, I mean that's the thing is the country
is being run by people who because they were voted
in by these people who can be fooled by Facebook videos.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
They can be fooled by another man showing them a
video on their phone.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
And accept that as reality.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Yeah, that's like the bar for a lot of these people. Then,
following the exemption news, let Nick then told ABC that
it was only temporary and that the same products will
be subject to quote semiconductor tariffs in a quote month
or two. It's just like so wild. Everyone's like, where
where the fuck are we at? Of course this is
(23:42):
all just pointless because these tariffs that are upending global
trade in the economy. Turns out, at this moment, or
at at least as of this weekend, the reporting was
that these tariffs aren't even being collected because the US
Customs and Border Protection quote an entry code in the
US system for American ships we used to have they're
freight exempted from tariffs isn't working. So a glitch is
(24:04):
now saying we're not even collecting fucking tariffs. Setport.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
Well, that's the awesome thing too, is like, listen, the
one thing I bring to the table I think that
maybe not a lot of your guests or people in
the podcast world, is like, I spent my twenties being
a bad computer programmer. I literally wrote code that was
like good enough to keep me employed, but was objectively bad, right,
And I know bad coder is when I see it.
(24:28):
And all this dose shit is just a bunch of
fucking software clouds who are bad at that. You're not
even bad at their job. What's the road. What's the road, like,
what's the gateway? What's like the Pokemon evolution of a
code or to end up at doge Like where are
these people starting? What are they even trying to? Like,
what are they pursuing? What's their dream job?
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Is just to right shitty code or code is just
like the means to the end I think.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
I mean, these guys are probably like fucking Silicon Valley
like software guys because they're on their twenties.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Like the road is short, the road is short.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
They were you know, probably like just like Nazis on
like gethub comments sections and are willing to do this
like like that's the thing is like then the number
one job requirement is willing to do that because like
none of it is technical. They're like like the thing
(25:23):
that impresses Elon Moore is not like, oh this code
is bug bug free, even because like when he started
at Twitter, he was like I'll personally be reviewing the
code and it's like, no, you want you And even
if you were good, you're not a fucking engineer like
like what you dickhead?
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Like yeah, of course, Like.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
So like these guys like but he's impressed by the
Silicon Valley culture of like oh shit, we like we
slept in our offices and we've been eating pizza for
nine days straight, like you know, corporate pizza, but like
none of the actual like engineering or realizing that like
this shit takes time.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Like he thinks hacking.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Is just like tap tap tapping at the thing and
being like, I'm.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
In even I think he think hacks. He probably thinks
hacking is just wearing really tiny sunglasses.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Yeah, yeah, that's it.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
He's like, dude, look at these little fucking lenses. I
got shout out Jamie loftus cosplays.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
So like like I think I suspect.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Look, I don't fucking know.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
I'm sure these guys were like good at one guy
called big Balls. Yeah, they're not on like working on
a timeline where like it matters. They're just like like
hatching shit, breaking stuff like if it works, it works.
If not, like oops, will like fix it later. But
the thing is, it's like you know these these small
(26:40):
mistakes these days have consequences and like to go fast
break things. It's like, well, you're breaking things that are
permanently broken and are like even even these marginal like
say they fix this tariff code in a couple of days.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
That's fucking billions of dolls.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Yes, gone, thank god they're not. But either way, it's
still affecting the economy at large.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
But oh wait, just so you know, on fucking Sunday,
President brain Rot got on his fucking Fisher Price phone
and decided to blast this message out. Quote, there was
no tariff exception. These products are subject to the existing
twenty percent fentanyl tariffs and they are just moving to
a different tariff bucket. Okay, dude, I just want to know.
(27:29):
I like, where is the signal chat where I can
get on to find out where all the oligarchs get
their heads ups on when to buy or dump stock?
Because this shit is still to open at this point.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Here's the thing. You're liable to get added to that shit.
I know, I'm just.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Merely saying it out loud, like with all the probably
surveillance tech, like I can work the algorithms. Yeah, you
have been very add miles to Secret Signal Group. I
know you're add to ballers on the stock Market Crew
Group thread on Signal Now, all right, then, the Supreme
(28:07):
Court kind of told Trump to bring back kilmar Abrego Garcia,
the innocent father of three from Maryland who was taken
away to El Salvador to a torture prison. So then
shit got pedantic. So basically, the court ruled that the
Trump administration had to facilitate the return of the innocent man.
Then it got pedantic as the White House then said
(28:29):
they only had to facilitate and not effectuate their return. Saturday,
things escalated further when the administration had to go to
court to let the judge know what steps were being
taken to return Abrego Garcia to the United States. They
basically just said, we ain't doing shit, bro, you can't
really do nothing about it. This is what one of
(28:49):
the lawyers said when they were asked what steps have
been taken to return this man. This is how the
answer quote. It is my understanding, based on official reporting
from our embassy in San Salvador, that Abrego Garcia is
currently being held in the terrorism Confinement Center in El Salvador.
He is alive and secure in that facility. He has
detained pursue it to the sovereign domestic authority of El Salvador.
(29:09):
So sorry, my honor, they are sovereign nation. We respect
sovereign nations and the sovereignty of all nations, and we
can't make them do anything. Therefore shrug emoji. This is
like dark for so many reasons, But the two that
really stick out are that what is really going on
with Kilmar Abrego Garcia? Is he missing? Is he alive still?
(29:32):
What is the like? That's what are they delaying because
they don't know where he's at or what the state
of him is. But and also at the same time,
because it can be both or either, they definitely want
to probably set a precedent here that disappearing people in
the country without due process and saying that once they're
off us soil ah, we can't do anything about it.
(29:53):
They want to sort of cross that rubicon, and if
they listen to the judge, then they sort of they
lose that tactic. And the one thing we know is
President Bukele of El Salvador will do or say whatever
Trump wants, And in fact, on Monday he's visiting Trump
for whatever reason. I think, maybe just to rub it
in people's faces, or maybe Bukeles like, hey, how are
we going to play this one?
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Bro?
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Like what the fuck you're gonna do here?
Speaker 3 (30:15):
But yeah, very very grim I mean this plus the
like tariff's business too, though, is at like to the
extent that there is a tiny shred of a silver
lining here, is that like as much power as like
Trump and trumpsm wields domestically and internationally, there are pieces
(30:35):
of international like like you know, not Ol Salvador, but
China doesn't have.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
To go along with you know, just craziness.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Yeah, like you know, you can all die together, motherfucker.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Yeah, Russia doesn't have to, and so like, and you
watch them like get bogged down in the details.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Like Trump likes making proclamations.
Speaker 3 (30:55):
He does not like talking about different tariff buckets, or
like the difference between facilitate and effectuating.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Yeah yeah, yeah, So like you.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
Know, obviously this is bad and worse than the first
Trump one.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
But the thing that really did happen last time is
he very clearly got bored with the bureaucracy and like,
you know, not that damage can't be done, but that
is sort of what it is weird watching them sort
of get smothered by bureaucracy, like rightful bureaucracy and like
not even just bureaucracy, just rules.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Yeah, and they're trying to push through. I mean, that's
definitely clear because they I think they to your point,
like they knew that's what held things up a lot
last time. And now they're like, well, if we're going
to go full mask off, like we got to get
ahead of it. But they there's still a few roadblocks.
I hope, Well it helps.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
It helps that they're dumb, and it helps that like
reality is not on their side, like what are they
actually going to do. They're still like they're like, I mean, look,
they are taking us with them, but they are wiley
coyote several paces off the edge of the cliff at
this point, and they just need to keep pumping their
legs than running.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
I know, but we're all tethered to it is the problem.
And as this happens, you know, he's also like sort
of intimating that they're talking about disappearing American citizens just
as quickly.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Yeah, he'll do that for sure.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
So I don't know. I mean, like, but yeah, to
your point, like even with all the tough guy projection
that they're doing, like behind the scenes, they were begging
China to just ask for a call with Trump because
clearly they're the boss over here in the White House.
Is so seen now they're like, oh, he's not gonna
The only way he'll talk is if he thinks they
came to the table and like they we have to
(32:38):
figure out a way. And they begged and they're like, dude,
we're not calling Trump, We're not asking for a call.
You're fucking serious. Yeah, get fucked cool. It's also just
in the last bit of Trump news, and I swear
this is it. Maybe not he he got his annual
My doctor is a liar note this year aka his
physical exam. I just this, God fuck it. I don't
(33:03):
even want to fuck it's fucking stupid. The guy, the
doctor's lying and acting like his his frequent victories in
golf has helped keep his well contribute significantly to his
well being.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
But it's like it's good that it's a lie, because like,
who cares, Like this motherfucker is a decrepit, sad old man,
and yes, we are all going down with him, don't
get me wrong, but yeah, it's like like this is
just some some continual like sad, fucking like weird propaganda
(33:38):
that like ya, it doesn't fool anyone, But no one
is convinced by this, No except for his most most
unwell followers, but like what could possibly be said in
here that would change, like, like you know, it could
not make those people more enthusiastic about Trump, like like
they are at rapidly diminished returns on tuh.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
Yeah, especially like this last week with the amount of
like retirees that were maga retirees whore like, ah, I had,
I had money that I was going to live off of,
but that's I don't know. I mean, hopefully this leads
to some kind of like radicalizing event for people, not
fully radicalizing, but at least yeah, yeah, we'd have to
(34:25):
get pretty radical here. Yeah, shout out the square word symbol. Yeah,
all right, let's take a quick break. We'll come back
and talk about Coachella ella a a A And we're
(34:48):
back Coachella weekend one a k A. When the traffic
dies down just a little bit, just a little bit more,
did you do any did you do any long drives?
And go, oh, that's right, it's Coachella.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
It was like deep into Saturday. It was right fucking
old obviously, but like I truly was like, what the
fuck is happening? And someone on a group chat was like, well,
it's Coachella, and.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
I was like, ahh yeah, it's when the city finally
farts and that's the bad shit. Yeah yeah, go down
to Indio and let us let us the gut microbes replenish.
But yeah, apparently it was a rocky start there. Like
I saw videos of people in lines to do the
car camping the night before the festival started, twelve hour lines.
(35:33):
People were like doxing, like line cutters, like people who
were like yeah yeah, like getting in the lane and
then just cutting in line cutting. People were like, get this, motherfucker.
There's so many people doxing these line cuttered people. And
I get it. When you're in a line that's fucking
twelve hours and some dick just wants to snake in
when you're not paying attention, it's as.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Truly like hissing off. However, many hundreds of people that
you were going to be in a confined camp round, Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah,
it seems unwise.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
I feel like, yeah, especially if you're car camping, because look, bro,
people will do some dumb shit like let the air
out of your tires when you're at the festival. Like
I've seen I've kept collectively dumb shit, yeah, yeah, yeah,
big Catherine hanwin. But anyway, there were no porta potties around.
Some people said it was worse than Fire Festival, and
(36:26):
come on, now, at least they're an actual festival. Happened,
so let's let's not get too trim.
Speaker 3 (36:30):
Also, one hundred percent Coachella twenty twenty five attendees and
Fire Festival attendees a probably depressing amount of overlap.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
Oh yeah, it's one circle. It's one circle. It's not
a men diagram. How it's a circle?
Speaker 2 (36:44):
Was there any explanation on how it's possible it got worse?
Speaker 3 (36:47):
Like how could this thing that there's I actually do
not understand logistically how this could not be a well
oiled machine at this point.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
Like, how could it get worse? How can logistics get worse?
Speaker 1 (36:58):
But I feel like every year people have been, like
even last year, yeah, people have been were complaining. It's
probably just the lack of like real maybe i'd imagine,
like anything, lack of investment in the infrastructure and like
human infrastructure.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
To do this.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
Otherwise, I really don't know, And if you were there,
let us know. But it sounds like it was all
fucked up.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
The campground should have at this point fucking because that's
the same place where they do like stagecoach and all
this other shit like it should have like Disneyland level
like infrastructure.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
Yeah yeah, Like why what else is it gonna be?
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Ever?
Speaker 1 (37:40):
Yeah, I think they're just like, I don't know, there's
it's a banking operation at this point. But look, nobody
had to suck dick for evy on like at Fire Festival,
or at least you know, offer to do that. But
they still got to see people like Green Day and
Lady Gaga and also an eighty three year old man
fashioning a kayak out of wood. Oh I mean denouncing fascism. Yes.
(38:04):
Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella, introducing Clara
the Artist and warning the crowd the future of what
happens to America is dependent upon your generation. And when
he brought up Trump, everyone booed. And that was Coachella.
(38:25):
I don't know how many I don't know how many
of those people in the audience completely absorbed the message,
because I feel like maybe the rally you were at
earlier this weekend in La with AOC that had almost
forty thousand people at it, those people were probably listening
to every word. These people that were going, they were
probably so fucked up on Malli that they were wondering
why there was no more music playing during the while
(38:45):
they were peaking. Oh yeah, Okay.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
There's also the.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
Fact that, like again, the Coachella twenty twenty five crowd
is probably comprised of a depressingly high amount of the famous.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
You know, Mega gen z. Oh yeah, yeah yeah, and
like the type of influencers who are just like calling
on crypto and whatever. So anyway, I don't know, people
seem to a bloo at the right time, so I
guess we can take that as a positive. But also,
you know, like fuck it, get in front of as
many people, even if you're not listening, let him know.
(39:20):
Shit's fucked y'all. And like, yeah, I mean, maybe it
is a good message, Like hey, I hate to fucking
ruin Coachella for you guys, but there's some serious shit
if you want to chella it up, you know, the
in the foreseeable future. Maybe or not. I don't know,
just I don't know.
Speaker 3 (39:37):
I mean, listen, all of my political instincts, well, all
of my political judgments have always been correct, but my
political instincts have always been incorrect, right exactly. So I
always know who the Nazis are. I just don't know
what to do about it.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
I just don't know how to talk to them, talk
to the aspiring ones. So then while this was happening,
you know, he made a huge speed uh. Like the
New York Posts said, They're like, oh, they said his
remarks were quote a ranting speech, but then they were
like Trump though thrills crowds at the UFC fight in Florida. Yeah,
(40:13):
there was an interesting moment here. He brought Marco Rubio
RFK Junior and a man who is always in constant shock,
Cash Patel, along with Ted Cruz as like his entourage.
I think the one notable moment that I think people
may have saw over the weekend was he was going
and like greeting some of the cabinet members and like
(40:34):
said what's up to like RFK Junior, but then snubbed
Cheryl Hines totally. Yeah, this was I'm just trying to
like frame by frame this. He gives him a hug, just.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
Woo, and Cheryl Hines does the Hollywood like what the fuck?
Speaker 1 (40:48):
Yeah, I mean she tried, she said, oh, hi, huh,
maybe not he did that shit. He looked at her
and said, no, I'm quol on this shit. A lot
of people put Curb the Curb.
Speaker 2 (40:59):
Game over that we haven't needed a season nineteen of Kurb.
Speaker 1 (41:04):
I know that, Cheryl. Cheryl, Cheryl, look what you did.
You thought you could play both sides. You thought you
could say your little skincare and also be like, I
disagree with my husband, mister brainworms, and then try and
shake the president's hand. Bro Yeah, nobody fucking with You're
just sorry, Cheryl, And in this case, just like when
(41:26):
you and Larry got divorced in the show. Sorry, miss Cheryl,
We're going with mister Larry. Yeah, you know, we're going
with mister.
Speaker 3 (41:34):
My tiny contribution to this is the tag that the
pro hitler UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell to get choked out.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
This somebody caught him talking trash about walking out of
Anger Management early because whoever he fuds it, Oh you're
a tough guy, put his ass two s L E E. P.
Sleep Yeah, you love to.
Speaker 3 (41:57):
But I do want to say not just pro hitler
in the way that I, you know, will casually call
people fascist. This guy actually is on record talk about
how much he likes it.
Speaker 1 (42:06):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, big, big time, big time.
Brian the Editor asked, why do we assume Cheryl Hines
is liberal because she talks she's always couched her like
love of RFK, because they're like, you're you're you're giving liberal.
You show up at these places and espouse these things,
but your husband is completely antithetical to it. And she
was doing this whole thing over this time. She's like,
(42:27):
while I disagree with my husband's views, or while I
disagree with blah blah blah, she's just doing the writing
the needle thing. I mean, I mean, yeah, to your point,
she probably is not, and for the optics tries to
do it. But either way, she wants to present.
Speaker 3 (42:43):
As she's like liberal in the sense that she's like
a contemporary American Democrat, which means she's like sort of
center right as far as like most economic things go,
most like governance things go, and is a little more
distasteful about homophobia exact most.
Speaker 1 (43:02):
She's okay, sorry to put it in this way, she's
one of those like like liberals who's quote, as long
as my money's right, I don't really care.
Speaker 3 (43:09):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, she's a Santa Monica liberal, right, which
if you're she's a conservative, if you're judging on.
Speaker 1 (43:17):
Earth, a Santa Monica liberal who hates unhoused people and
is anti Fax. That is basically what that like.
Speaker 3 (43:24):
When you describe that in like a global political framework,
that's a conservative in America, it happens that that's on
the liberal side of fifty to fifty media.
Speaker 1 (43:34):
And again, if you just want to hear Bryce Mitchell,
this is this is what he was saying in January.
Just again like you were saying, Andrew, not like he's
dabbles in it. He's out here full throat endorsing Hitler.
Speaker 4 (43:47):
Hitler, Helen, the Nazis. I really don't think that he was,
because I honestly think that Hitler was a good guy
based upon my own research, not my public education indoctrination.
I really do think before Hitler got on myth, he
was a god go fishing with.
Speaker 1 (44:04):
You heard it here, folks. Hey, you know what sucks though,
Price Man, I get that. Man. How many homies do
we know? He said? Man, before he got on meth,
he was somebody we could go fishing with.
Speaker 2 (44:16):
True.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
The next thing you know, we're out here trying to
asking me to go to a party. He pulls up
to a construction site, Hey, asking me how much fucking
copper wiring can I pull out with my bare hands? No,
we're not doing that.
Speaker 3 (44:26):
Blaming blaming uh, meth, meth or or like yeah, for
for the actions of Adolf Hitler was really, I mean,
without without getting too into it, every one of those
motherfuckers and everyone until somewhere around Jimmy Carter was on
meth right exactly.
Speaker 1 (44:46):
Let's not blame the meth you know what I mean,
that's meth got shipped done. Yeah, hey, honestly based on
my own research. Oh my god, he looked at a
fucking meme. Yeah, boy boy? Howdy?
Speaker 2 (45:04):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (45:04):
And then finally, did you see I guess I should
ask you before I hit the short? Did you see
the SNL White Lotus White Potus sketch?
Speaker 4 (45:11):
Im?
Speaker 2 (45:11):
So I missed it? I usually you're wearing recording during
my catching up on SNL.
Speaker 4 (45:18):
No.
Speaker 1 (45:18):
No, and look, people know people know me. I'm I
miss this shit too. This is the problem. I was
gonna watch the sketch, but I'm so I'm dragging my
carcass through watching this season a White Lotus because it's
so uninteresting to me that like part of me wanted
to avoid it in case there's spoilers. And then I
was just like, then when I saw Amy lou Wood
(45:40):
post how she was like, man, bro, this ship was trash, bro.
They're just trying to fucking make fun of me, like
in the wrong ways. I was like, oh, never mind, maybe, eh, whatever,
I don't need to combine the two things that are
no pleasure right now, White Lotus and the tariffs in
one sketch.
Speaker 2 (45:56):
Never nah, I'll pass.
Speaker 3 (45:59):
I I'm gonna pick my words about White Lotus, but
I just I wish uh White Lotus had more a
more diverse writer's room, which is, by the way, to say,
any writer's room, but a more diverse writer's room.
Speaker 1 (46:16):
Is it just Mike White all the time? Is this him?
Speaker 2 (46:18):
I don't know about this season, but I believe it mostly. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (46:21):
I mean the way he lost, the way this thing
has just you can see it lose momentum over the seasons.
You're like season one, You're like, okay, we got a
little commentary. Now we're talking about Americans from the mainland
coming to Hawaii. Maybe there's some tension there. Then it
felt like Mike White's like, that's kind of too much
thinking what about what about Italy? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (46:42):
I just I again, I just I think this is
a show that like really really really could benefit from
more viewpoints. Yeah, because I'll just say season one of
White lotus my actual favorite characters, and to me, the
characters that would matter the most had their storylines concluded
(47:03):
off camera, which is the two native employees. Number one,
the lady who shows up on her due date in
the pilot just here that she gave birth, and then
the employee dude who was like part of the like heist.
I was like, these two are the people. These two
are the people the story is about exactly in my opinion.
(47:23):
They're like, well, what about the girls who talk like
sort of gen Z podcast brain people who like Mike
White was like told, yeah, what's her face?
Speaker 2 (47:33):
Sweeny sweeny to like listen.
Speaker 1 (47:35):
To Red Scare to like get the vibes down of
like what you want. And they're like, this is the
interesting part is all this other tension around thee.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
I just wish there was There's so much There's so
much more. There's so much more that I wish could
be in there. I will say if we're going to
pitch SNL. I believe it was from two weeks ago.
Echo Wodem did a shockingly long and amazing just stand
up routine during Weekend Update. That was just just her
(48:08):
doing an impression of like a you know, a stand
up comedian in all the ways that that can mean.
Speaker 1 (48:15):
Oh okay, it's I'm speaking of And you know there's
gonna be the Like UK spinoff now oh no, yeah?
Did you know? I did not? That's going to launch
next year, So it's like Lorne Michaels and it's like
Ashling b that has been tipped to be in it.
(48:37):
I don't know, I will see, I'll.
Speaker 3 (48:39):
Just I'll let me just say I think I've been
on the show enough that I may have already suggested
this also as a thing to enjoy.
Speaker 2 (48:46):
But I believe they did one season of Law and
Order UK and.
Speaker 3 (48:51):
It is, in my mind, one of the it's one
of the funniest cop procedurals I personally have ever seen
as someone who doesn't watch a ton of British cop procedurals,
which I know is a very funny thing, but to me,
it's so funny because in all the British ways.
Speaker 2 (49:06):
The cops don't have guns and the lawyers have to
wear wigs and it's so good.
Speaker 1 (49:10):
I know they're like arguing, like hold on, let me
put my fucking a little barrister cap on with my
curly white hairs.
Speaker 3 (49:16):
It's it's just the long court segment because the like
structure of it is the same as Law and Order America.
But it's just the things that make the British legal
says some different are so funny to me.
Speaker 1 (49:29):
Oh yeah, I love seeing like and I just love
though too how like ignorant. I just remember seeing it
every time, like why they gotta wear the wig and
then pardons? I think that's why maybe it's better, like
you gotta like can you be a shitty lawyer and
fuck around in court and be like a sleazy lawyer?
I'm sure, Hey, uk Zyking, let me know, Like it
must be so funny to see it, dude, be a
(49:49):
scumbag barrister like in court, like an ambulance chaser type lawyer,
but doing it with your little barrister cap like little
barrister wig on. Oh I I mean look it obviously though,
it is like just a reminder that this system is
made for white men.
Speaker 3 (50:04):
But in Law and Order UK, the thing that was
to me the funniest is the whatever their version of
the ada is. So in Law and Order America casting
it is almost always a very attractive woman. And in
Law and Order UK, I believe if I recall correctly,
I'm not going to look it up, it was a
uh a Nigerian British actress. So when she was wearing
(50:30):
the barrister's wig, it's, yeah, it's just so insane to me.
I know.
Speaker 1 (50:35):
That's what I'm always like when I see like the
barristers of color and I'm like, well, get them.
Speaker 3 (50:39):
Yes, you should be able, you should be able to
at least get color a texture.
Speaker 1 (50:44):
Pay does everybody look like they're about to fucking pull
up to George Washington in a fucking pistol rule? Like
why why is it? Whatever?
Speaker 3 (50:54):
It's like so weird because it's like it is just
like institutionalized white supremacy.
Speaker 2 (50:59):
But also it looks insane.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
Yeah, yeah, right, embarrass barristers, give us you give.
Speaker 2 (51:09):
Us glories, barrister, that's it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (51:14):
But yeah, I'm curious what a UK like. I wonder
who the writing is, what the writing is going to
be like, because there's I mean, I like like English comedies,
like UK comedies. I'm I'm definitely into it. So I
wonder if they're going to do the thing where they're like,
we just need to do you SNL but with accents
(51:35):
and keep the same style, with British sensibility, that minimalism.
Speaker 3 (51:40):
My wish, of course is that like the American SNL,
it will be made by unbelievably talented people, but every
now and again have a bizarre right wing viewpoint that
is very clearly put in by the producers.
Speaker 1 (51:53):
Yeah, some weird like Bregs. Wasn't so bad? Was it?
Kind of sketch? I guess can heard what's happening over here.
That's what I don't like. People, you don't want you.
Speaker 3 (52:03):
We talked a lot of shit about Brexit. Yeah look
what we did, and we ripped off our own nose
in front of everyone.
Speaker 1 (52:10):
Uh, what a time? What a time? All right, y'all, Well,
that's gonna wrap it up for what we were covering
in terms of what trended over the weekend. Bits of
ups and downs for everybody. But yeah, andrew T, thank
you so much for joining me. We are going to
be back tomorrow with a brand new episode, a whole episode.
You're gonna love it, and we'll be back to doing

all the usual things that we do. Baby. And guess what,
we will have the return of Jack this week, and
I will hold him responsible for the you know, escalating
costs of global.
Speaker 3 (52:43):
Let me hold eighteen point five million dollars real quick, Yeah,
that's specific eighteen Give me eighteen point five mil.
Speaker 2 (52:49):
Just just let me hold it for like two weeks.
Speaker 1 (52:51):
Just what's eight eighteen point you're gonna invest that you got?
Speaker 2 (52:55):
Don't worry about it, don'torry about all right?
Speaker 1 (52:57):
Sorry, bro, Here, I'll let you know. I'll send you
some screenshots from the signal chat I'm in I got
added to apparently, but it's pretty cool stuff happening in there.
All right, y'all. That will do it for us. We
will see you then, have a great day.
