Speaker 1 (00:02):
Okay, First of all, some some flames on your plane
when you land is just a way of celebrating that
you've landed in Florida. That's just those are celebratory flames.
Helps with the disembark It makes the disembarking process more
efficient because people are getting off the plane more quickly
because of the black smoke, and you get to use
the slide. How often do you get to use the slide? Also,
(00:25):
So one of the big problems that we have with
the air it's just the air traffic controllers are asleep
at the wheel literally because they don't let them sleep,
and so these little near death accident things are like
they jolt them away for like at least a couple
of days. So I think you're in actually.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Really good in Orlando right now.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Yeah. Yeah, they're very keen to not repeat this mistake
within the next few days. So these are these are
the rumble strips of air traffic. Air air travel. You
know how rumble strips are actually there so that when
truckers fall asleep, they like drift off to the side
and then they're like, oh, that's what these little accidents are,
these little oopsies. They are like rumble strips for the
(01:12):
air travel industry.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
An entire plane engine has to catch fire.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
That is the unfortunate consequence.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Black smoke, you said, though, sounds like we got a
new pope.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
We got a new pope. We don't, right, it doesn't
have to be white smoke.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Which one is it? We vote again, black smoke, black pope.
Maybe some black pope, black pope, black poope.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yeah, I don't, I need I need a rhyming mnemonic
device for like, white smoke, pope pope. Not here, black
smoke pope.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Black black, Yes, black key's back there we go back
white good night.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
There it is.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
We got it all right. Next next right.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
From Swish Alright, Hello the Internet, and welcome to season three,
eighty five, Episode two of Dirt Daily. Zight Guys, a
production of iHeartRadio. This is a podcast where we take
a deep dive into America sharing consciousness. That it is Tuesday,
(02:26):
April twenty second, twenty twenty.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Five, yep, two tues as they say for Man Toronto. Look,
it's school bus driver Appreciation Day. Shout out your school
bus driver, shout out. It's National Jellybean Day. Not a fan.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I'm not a fan of jelly Day. Jelly beat, so
fuck all that.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Also National Girl Scout leaders Day and National Earth Day,
but only national so I guess only America. This is
the only day America will recognize O Earth.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
It's nationals on Global Earth.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Yeah, so that's right. And then you our own where
we show the rest of the world how it's done
by completely ignoring it.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Exactly exactly. Don't don't bumb us out Earth.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
You can have like little Earth decorations at the at
the office. Myles, why do you why why do you
hate jelly beans? It's not like the fucking texture. Yeah,
the type, because there there are like the Starbus jelly
beans flavor wise pretty good.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
I you know what. I actually bought those to put
in an Easter basket from my nieces over the weekend,
and I was like, damn, I might, I might try these,
but I didn't end up trying them. I only bought
him because they weren't jelly belly.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
They taste good, but they are like the primary ingredient
is like lack her like it. It's like, you know,
I feel like it's whatever that bug thing is bug
mucus that they like make to like make a thing shiny,
and it's probably illegal in European countries. I feel like
that's the primary ingredient of jelly Jelli Betty. Yeah, but anyways,
(03:58):
I think they're a lot of fun. I'm also a
huge Reagan fan and that was his that was his
main thing. That would be if he if he had
an action figure, there would be just a bowl of
jelly beans next to him. What a cool guy. My
name is Jack O'Brien aka Potatoes O'Brien, and I'm thrilled
to be joined as always by my co host, mister
Miles Gray.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Look at Miles Gray. Just back from a wonderful uh
day of celebrating the death of Jesus Christ.

the new Jesus.

Oh yeah, fucking waiting for this asshole to step aside.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I'm so sorry.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Anyway, I'm still the Lord of Lancasham. Obviously you are
still hoping, hoping to get named the new Pope.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
To a little cha.
Speaker 3 (05:00):

comedy where like Jack Goodman finds out like gets a call.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
So you're basically saying, they're saying King Ralph, King Ralph, but.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Pope Ralph. I like that you went to a sequel.

up being really important.

Did you did you point that out?
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Like what I told the cashier? I was like, that's

was sitting underpaid and exploited.
Speaker 3 (07:24):

I got a lot of tables. When do you get
out of my face?
Speaker 3 (07:30):

Speaker 3 (07:34):
A dollar tree?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Jack? Yeah? Yeah, no, I was just I was quoting
a cable guy and cable guy when somebody's like, so
they don't they asked for a fork, And she's like,
we don't do forks because here we eat like they
did in medieval times. And Jim Carrey's character says, oh,
(07:58):
but they had PEPSI. She's look, man, I got a
lot of tables.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Jackie butchered the line and it's Matthew Broderick.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Can I get a utensils?
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Said? There were no utensils in medieval times? Hence there
are no utensils at medieval times? Can I get you
a refill?
Speaker 1 (08:16):
They no utensils, but that PEPSI? Look, I got a
lot of tables.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Anyway, Wow, you just did a deep cut reference and
got fact checked.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
I don't know if I can keep up with you boys.
This is called being a really pathetic person with the podcast.
This is.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Welcome this world of podcasting. What's your favorite movie? You
want to quote, bro, I'd love to hear it.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I I will argue we're not in a quotable movie era,
I haven't heard it. Good, I'll be back, or a
good I mean, I drink your milkshake was maybe the
most recent, like great quote, that's kind of what was
the last?
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Yeah, like maybe some ship like like bane or yeah,
just like people doing the voice.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
I feel like I was born of the dog.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
That's right. I was born in the dark. It is
pretty good, pretty undeniable. I have.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
I have a phenomenal impression that is no longer culturally relevant,
but it is pitch perfect if I can get into
the different Go ahead, prepare previously on Lost.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
That's good? Oh I fifteen sixteen twenty three forteen.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Wait was it for eight fifteen sixteen twenty three forty two?
He's good. Yeah, he's good. Like numbers. They some say
I am an idiot. Not pennies playing, not pennies playing,
not pennies playing. Oh, Penny's boat, Penny's boat. Oh again
with the fact check song Zach to.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Steal to steal trap up there?
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Yes, Yeah, welcome, Welcome to the Insufferable Assholes Podcast. We
got Zach Zimmerman on Today, Is it exhausting being all
the time, and it's exhausting being married to me? Are
we are you proposing proposing? My wife doesn't leave me
for just constantly sundowning with weird out of context movie
(10:15):
and TV show.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Quotes, incorrect, incorrect.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
I overhear something while we're recording. I opened the door.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
I'm like, not right, yeah, yeah, yeah, this smoke. No,
that wasn't Jacob. That miss quoted me and girls. Yeah,
all right, Zach, we're going to get to know you
a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going
to tell our listeners a couple of things we're talking
about today. Uh. Pete hag seth Uh. We talked about
it on yesterday's Trending, But things seem to be devolving
(10:46):
for Pete in terms of his ability to stay employed
as Secretary of Defense. He said yesterday he said he
was saying over the weekend, I talked to Trump. He
said we're good. So we're good, which is a he's
a good sign. Yeah, when the person has quotes about
what Trump said to them behind closed doors, but no
(11:07):
Trump quotes are forthcoming on that person's behalf. So we'll
continue to talk about the fallout from him, well, also
just general sloppiness from this administration. We'll also talk about
Christy nomes purse being stolen with three thousand dollars cash
inside allegedly. We'll talk about the continued fallout from Katy
(11:28):
Perry's trip to space.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Kind of everyone everyone's kind of getting flack, but a
lot of people the Katy Perry of it all I
think was especially kind of humiliating for her because now,
like over the weekend there's like things in the Daily
Mail where it's one of her confidants is like, yes,
I think she kind of regrets doing all that, doing
the most up there during that life stream.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
I mean, it's I think we're like the real problem,
just don't do like massive publicity stunts with Jeff Bay Like,
I think I feel like that might be your problem
right there, not so much over here and down there,
but right around the Jeff Bezos photo op. So we'll
talk about that, and then we'll talk about the movie Sinners,
(12:15):
a huge hit. Ryan Coogler's Sinners all sorts of incredibly
impressive results. Best performance by an original movie since before
the pandemic. Wow, that's fucking wild and the Variety and
other kind of mainstream media outlets are like, I mean, okay,
(12:39):
I guess you could say that's good. Why it's not good? Yeah,
so we'll talk about why why there might be a
double standard. Have you ever heard about one of those?
A double standard?
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Is that like a single standard?
Speaker 1 (12:52):
So it's similar to a single standard, but you do
you do a different one for a different person. It's interesting. Yeah, yeah,
I know it's we know nothing.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Of it in my world, Zach. It's going to spin
when you hear this, Zach.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
You're not gonna believe it.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Like one of those those humanoid robots in the marathon.
Your head will spin right off.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
All that plenty more. But first, Zach, we do like
to ask our guest, what is something from your search
history that's revealing about who you are?
Speaker 2 (13:22):
So on Sunday, I got high and went to an
evangelical church service, Oh my God, which I thought it
was for twenty Easter.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Let me do it.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
I haven't been that is twenty years.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And I wow, you did the two things I did it, Yeah, the.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Two was worried. I was worried I would leave converted.
But what I actually thought was the thing that I searched,
which is while this pastor, this young handsome guy's given
his sermon, I'm like, is his wife blowing him like our?
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Can Christians give blow jobs?
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
So I googled can Christians give blowjobs? I was just
that's where my high brain went.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Yeah. So the whole time he's talking and you're like, dude,
what if it's like it's like a sin to get
domed up from valve Holme's part where.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
He came to because he's I don't know, so wholesome.
I just couldn't see anything other.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Oh, you saw he as like asexual almost No.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
I saw a pro creative, gentle, condomless penetrative he was.
He had like the gay haircut from ten years ago
to I don't know if that's the fashion now amongst
straight pastors, but he had like a skin fade on
the sides.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
He was a handsome guy.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
You wul talk telling me about the Gospel and how
the Resurrection of Christ matters. But turns out yes, in
the in a marital context. I read an article on
Christian context. Yeah, as long as everyone is enjoying it
was that part of it. Sure, Yeah, that doesn't sound
like Christianity. To me, that doesn't sound right. I think
(15:09):
we have to go back everything. Did you wait to
leave before you googled that?
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (15:14):
I didn't want it'd be wild, like someone just looks
over your shoulder from the eye behind.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
I had to fight the urge to be like, you're
all sheep, this is a lie. Wait, so what I mean?
What even drew you to do that? You said it's
been twenty years. Was it just kind of like a
morbid curiosity, like let me get fucking really high and
then subject myself to a Easter service? Yeah? I was curious.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
I mean I think I always like I have a
bunch of like evangelical trauma. So it's kind of fun
when I can go back and be above it, right right,
kind of not feel triggered by this space and see
it from a distance. Part I was curious, and then
I was I don't know. I think there was some
thing that gleaned from me. He was saying, God thinks
you should live your life to the fullest. I was like, okay,
(16:04):
I can get behind that.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Okay, influencer, I'm with that. Or or maybe I.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Hoped that they would like say something salacious or interesting.
I am always curious about the role Hell plays today,
Like I grew up tons of hell in church. Now
so much like they bury hell now they barely talk.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
About I don't even talk about hell anymore. No, Yeah,
I got my fill of evangelical stuff. And when I
lived in Kentucky for a few years, and yeah, they
were they were telling people that were going to hell,
like who died? Like a kid died and they were like,
we don't think he was saved. Unfortunately, so he saved.
(16:45):
Oh God, by the way, do you think that your
search killed the pope? Like you searching that on Easter?
Do you think that that was too much.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
For I think he was making a similar search and
God got domed up. People are thinking JD killed the pope.
JD pleased the pope and.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Oh interesting, if he please. This is the type of
conspiracy theory I'm here for, because it's not that, you.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Know, his toppy game is next level, that he took
the pope to death.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
There was a reason he got appointed despite them being
very different parts of the Conservative Party.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
He's got mad.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Those lips, eyelashes, those eyelashes.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Was he Kentucky?
Speaker 1 (17:33):
I thought Ohio, Southern Ohio maybe sounds right, Yeah, Zach,
what's something he thinks underrated?
Speaker 2 (17:39):
The dunkin Donuts mobile app brings me a lot of joy.
I don't hear people talking about it enough. I am.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
I'm rolling into a dunkin. My order is already ready
for me. I'm getting points. They just had a promotion.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
I got four points four times points on National Coal
Brew Day a few days ago. The offers, the offers
are consistent. Then the products are what you pay for,
what's your download the dunkin donn use promo code? Zach Zimmerman.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
The So this is one of those things where you
hear people who are like privacy experts say, don't use
the apps because they're like selling your information or they're
and but on the other hand, they are better, Like
a lot of them are just much better than not
using the apps. And I'm like, who, what's dunkin Donuts
(18:32):
gonna do with my my psychographic data? Yeah, Like, I
don't know that they build a psychographic data profile of
me and it knows that like like what I'm in
the mood for. I'm sure there's like some darker you
know that I did submit a DNA sample to them,
and that might have been a little bit overboard.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
I was gonna tell you them, like Jack, you can
just enter in the app that sour cream donuts are
your favorite donut.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
No, I better do this for the DNA sample. So
I might be in some trouble for another reason. But
what's your what's your go to at Duncan, I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
A black cole Brew medium and recently they've had a
dunk King's promotion six dollars for.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
I put that crown on your head, King with the
crown on.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
My head, and then donut wise, I'm not going to
Duncan for my donuts.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Oh wow, sorry, Yeah, so your order is mostly just coffee.
It's just coffee.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Yeah, okay, good for you. That actually makes makes sense
to me. I think I think that's right. I think
you're right. Decisions point.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yes, thanks my sponsorship. They were like, you shout on
half of our business.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Shout on the part of the business that's in the donuts.
Not a fan of Actually they're not called donuts anymore,
so they know what's up.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Oh yeah, they deleted that a while.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Oh they're just Duncan, They're just Dunkin.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I think I hopped at that too. There, like we're
not International House of Pancakes anymore.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
We're just yeah, And that's so you're aware, so that
that doesn't mean anything. Yeah, I hop doesn't.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
It's a it's a discontinued Apple robot toy.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
They were thinking about releasing the Iye hop and we didn't. Yeah,
we just it's they went from like being a donut
thing to being like, we're fucking cranking here. American runs
on Duncan right. Their whole thing is just yeah, they
know where what side they're bread is buttered on it
and it's a weird legal speed. Yeah, what what's something
(20:38):
you think's overrated?
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Lady Gaga? Just kidding? I love Yeah, yeah, no, but.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
I do think Miles's face was dead?
Speaker 3 (20:49):
So what happened?
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Gotcha?
Speaker 2 (20:52):
I do think maybe it depends on your community, but
I think outdoor music festivals have never appealed to me,
and people seem to be having a lot of fun
outside in the hot sun at a music festival, rocking out.
I'm seeing not in responses from you boys. I guess
(21:14):
I'm gone for the wrong thing.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
No, No, I'm saying, oh, we're yeah, I'm in the
elder community.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
What community were you speaking from?
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Which is basically, Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Have
I aged out of when being a horde was fun? Well,
I think the heat makes it suck. That's why I
like Coachella. The times when it was hot.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I'm like, this is fucking terrible, Like I can't handle
this shit, but no, I'm I'm I'm there with you.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Like, the lineup has to be really good for me
to want to be like in a massive people yeah,
And I think that's the thing. As I become older
and more washed, I went from knowing like eighty percent
of the lineups I would see on a given like
life a for a festival, to now being like, I
know the headliners and like six them artists on there,
and I'm you know, I'm just realizing the pace at
(22:03):
which new artists come out is just it.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
It's hard.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
So the aging makes you crave comfort more. And also
the music is not as alluring to overcome the discomfort.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
I mean, although I love outside lands, and that's because
the temperature in the gold and Golden Gate Park in
San Francisco is just conducive to being able to like
stand outside for many hours without becoming exhausted from merely
being outside.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Maybe I'm willing, Maybe I'm willing to adjust then to
hot too hot? Yeah, what's operted hot temperatures?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Wait?
Speaker 3 (22:37):
Well yeah, for too long, we've been celebrating ninety degrees.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
We should have been celebrating sixty six oh point sixgree
thank you, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Did you see yo? Did you see the clips of
Justin Bieber at Coachella?
Speaker 1 (22:53):
No turning out? He look sorry, I'm trying to act young.
This is but the hair tent was really hitting.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Oh my god. There's also this other artist that I
I've we've gone out on a couple of her songs,
Lola Young. She was super sick last week and was
like choking back, like she was like gagging on stage.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
She was so sick.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
It was like, oh, I felt so bad. I was like, oh,
She's like, I'm nervous, I'm sick. It was too hot.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
This is like the worst fucking performance I've ever had.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
The lyrics actually, yeah, nervous, hot, I'm too sick. Sorry,
this is the worst.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
So what happened with Justin Bieber? Because I saw headlines
and it's just seeing people kind of break down is
sowmat depressing to me?
Speaker 3 (23:39):
So I don't know, Yeah, he was just he just
looked like he was off the ships. I don't know,
he just did not look was he there he was performing? No, no, no, no,
he was just like in the like crowd and ship
and just like people were flicks at him. Okay, like
he you know, he just looks like it looks super
fucked up. Oh yeah, and like you know, we we
(24:02):
just you see this all the time, like so many
of these kids who start off like becoming celebrities really young.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
It's just it's.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Always like such a dark path. Uh sound like good? God,
I feel I hope, I hope you get better. Justin Bieber,
this didn't look good.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
I can't wait until the TikTok kid stars today have
their crashouts in twenty years, like the cute kid who's
like thank you mommy for his meals or the.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Rizler watch it. Yeah, that's gonna be bad.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
It'll probably be like at a at a Costco or
some ship too.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
You know, they'll bring back the dooms. Have you guys
talked about the doom meter?
Speaker 3 (24:45):
No? No, you know the booms?
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Right? Of course, everything, every every story we covered today's
episode Zach will be covered will be raided by booms.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
The Costco guys used to give things boom or dooms.
Oh really, no, they had this rebrand. I think about
the time they went on Fallon where they changed it.
It's all booms.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
Yeah, I didn't care for it.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Sold out.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Yeah, they've captured. They really did.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
They've been catching How bad a doom is basically one boom?
Okay yeah in situation yeah, because they don't want to
give anything a doom because then they won't get their life.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
I knew that little I knew that little boy was
a fucking coward.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
I will say, I think the Rizzler I'm taking the
over on him. I thought, I think the Wrizzler is
going to be the president of the United States. I
don't think there's a crash out coming.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
I think damn.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
I think he will only astound and amaze us from
this point. They had a Reddit bot for real life.
Remind me in ten years, is this your king?
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Yeah, he did get some traction over Easter, like I
saw he his risen.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
What's happening?
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Wow? Yeah, fun.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
I don't think anyone noticed that until the Rizzler.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Yeah, we've always been saying there take a break. Jesus,
let me hand, let me handle things.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Man. Let's uh yeah, let's take a break. Let Jesus
hand take the wheel for a couple of minutes of ads,
and we'll be right back to talk about some news.
And we're back back in that part where you look
(26:32):

where he was carrying us all you guys, it's not
a full episode unless I make a footstep of reference
to the footsteps.

Chipotle one?

Although why aren't you just punching your number because it's easier.

Speaker 3 (28:11):
That's a good. Like reveal of how you look at class.
Do you hand them your key for them to scan
or do you punch in your number all yourself and
do the labor.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
I scan it myself. Man, can just twipe that ship?
You just do it?
Speaker 3 (28:21):
Over the thing?
Speaker 1 (28:22):
Well out of my way, out of my way. I

the apron on.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
You're you are a true revolutionary.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
Yes, that's truly. Wait where were we with this. How
did we were we about to talk about Pete heg
seth Oh No, yeah, you were talking about card and
how you want it so that you can just go in,
ask for a large drink and fill it up with beans.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Just right over.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
I just reached over the sneeze guard. Let me just scoop.
I guess sure, how good I got that? I got
the winning card.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
I'm good.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Just hugging some beans, isn't a isn't that just?
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Isn't that coffee?
Speaker 1 (29:02):
That's right? Hey? And if we're being honest, and I
think we are Zach today blew my mind? Yeah, today
only we're being honest. Let's talk about Pete Haig sat
Zach fan? Are you a fan? You know?
Speaker 3 (29:16):
I I liked his early work.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
This guy so good. Not washing your hands.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
He's such a messy little bitch, which is okay. We've
learned if you're president, but if you're secretary of Defense,
you got to be a little serious about your.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
Job a little bit. That's one of the big ones. Yeah,
he just likes being He's like, well, I have slick
back hair, and I always have like an America handkerchief
in my pocket, so I'm defensive.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Secretary of Defense.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
I don't trust handsome people in roles where they should
just know lots of things. There's a reason why they
call Washington d C Hollywood for ugly people.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
It's because it's that. But they're smarter than.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
People in Hollywood. That's just and that's why they're taking
Pete hagg Seth down. He's too beautiful. They're just jealous
with his That should be his defense. With his current
defense of you guys just hate me because you ain't me.
Liberal media isn't really working. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
So I mean, look, we've there's been Signal Gate, Signal
Gate two.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
Now NPR is reporting that inside the White House the
search hath begun for a new drunken white supremacist super
soldier to be Secretary of Defense. So yeah, I just
I think we were all shocked just because he's terrible
at his job and you know, like I just don't understand,
and like his appointment has only led to more chaos
(30:36):
within the Pentagon. Dude, this fucking this place has gone soft.
I've been saying this for a long time. Mass firings
are a good thing no matter what. And Pete Hegseth
I think proved that. But over the weekend too, like
all of the Hegseth flunkys at the Pentagon really did
their best to try and make this a nonswen. It's
like another day, another fake story, blowing stuff out of proportion.
(30:57):
Like he know, he absolutely cares about the the like
the safety of our our war fighters, our warriors, and yeah,
like we said on Monday's episode, when hag Seth was
speaking to the press at the White House, it looks
now looking at what we know now, I'm like, oh, this.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Guy really was. He was fighting for his life with
he was tilting. Yeah, he was on edge. She's like
looking at the camera, Zach, I don't assume that you
watched Pete Hegseeth's interview at the White White House Easter egg.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Roll But.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Okay, interesting, good, Well it would be good because he
is making deep eye contact with just down the barrel
of the camera for no reason, and like in a
way that's just feels really un media trained for somebody
who's got their start being a talking head on television.
But I think I think he's just kind of erratic
and probably you know, six whiskeys deep. It's pretty late
(31:57):
on Sunday morning.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
So I don't know. I mean, this is the one
they wanted, you know, Like this is they were like,
this guy will do the most damage and.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Do it unflinchingly, unquestioningly.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
So I know, in terms of like the utter destruction
of norms angle, I think they really wanted him, but
who knows at this point. Yeah, I mean they might
just honestly be like gets like a true like a
like a war criminal out of like a cryo freeze
that they reanimated to be like, and we.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
Got Andrew Jackson back, baby.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
But yeah, that's we will see where they go with this.
But it sounds like basically because the Pentagon was just
in full chaos mode, it was taking up too much
of Trump's attention because.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
Then he can't golf, and He's like, well then I
need to get rid of someone.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
But on that at that same Easter Egg event, someone
asked him about he Pete Hegseth, and he was like,
just ask the nineties banned the hooties, what they think
of Pete heg Seth. This was him giving his semi
vote of confidence to Pete Hegseeth as.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
The hoodies, how much ysfunction? There's run Peach's doing a great.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
Job, he said at not the Hoothies in Yemen. He's
he was trying to reference the Hoothies who they were bombing.
He said it was doing a good job. Ask the Hooties, well,
all right, as.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
The Hoodies, how much ysfunctions? There's run, dude, he doesn't.
He can't even get through a sense of swish. That's
just the hoodies. But yeah, we're gonna fire him.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
All I can hear.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
All I can think is the hoodies as a synonym
for boobs. And I'm trying to think of a situation
where someone is like, asked the boobs if they had fun, and.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
It's like, who are you talking about?
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Sorry?
Speaker 3 (33:52):
I mean that up?
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Yeah, fire him, fire him, that was bad, Get rid
of him, Get rid of him for a replacement. Because
Trump is so television brained. Do we think he's going
to try and go after the general from the.
Speaker 3 (34:07):
Those car insurance rate in town?
Speaker 1 (34:09):
Yeah? I feel like the General would be on a
short list. I mean, at this point it could probably.
It would probably even be like when Lacey Mosley dressed.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
As the General for Halloween that one year, that she
would somehow be good enough get me that General. It's
like that's Lacey Mosley. No, no, no, the Jed that
that one, the beautiful one.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
We could bring in cap and Crunch from retirement.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
Yeah, I mean have him lead the way.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
He does have that mark on his record where the
flub where oops all crunch berries. You know, he admitted
up an admitted fuck.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
Upon must make clear.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
We make mistakes, we kill some people, we apologize for
those mistakes.
Speaker 3 (34:49):
We're moving fast, and then we move fast.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:51):
I mean at this rate though, too. I didn't even
believe they'd be like, we've actually brought back Dwight Eisenhower
as an AI to make all the decisions. Who better
then the great ike Dwight Eisenhower.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (35:03):
I mean like they'll they it'll just be someone that he.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Can control and end of story. But I don't know.
Speaker 3 (35:11):
I mean, I think it's a good It's always a
good sign when they can't stomach their own cabinet members
so quickly, and then so quickly they're just like, yeah, bro.
Speaker 1 (35:20):
We don't. They're all fucking They're all suck at this
and it's causing more problems.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
We thought once you once you enter office, everyone just
blindly does what you say, even if it's illegal or immoral.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Yeah, it's only certain, only certain instances they do that.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
That's a beautiful frame, or just to be like, oh
this is good. They're firing someone who did a bad thing.
There's no there is a limit, there is a line.
Speaker 3 (35:43):
I think it's more that it's there. Just don't embarrass us,
like do all the illegal shit. But the second now
everyone's like, look at these fucking just completely inept people
trying to be serious about running the government. I think
that's where they have trouble because then they have to
go out. They'll be like who hasn't leaked warp? Like
you know what I mean, Like they have to do
(36:03):
that same thing where they just like distill like a
really terrible thing down to a very basic premise. Who
hasn't leaked classified information ahead of a military strike.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
On the Hoho Thies?
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (36:17):
You get was?
Speaker 3 (36:19):
Yeah you get one?
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Yeah? Two? Never two?
Speaker 3 (36:22):
Exactly same thing with like you know this happened with
what's his face? Like the former EPA guy during Trump's
first what the fuck?
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Uh down?
Speaker 3 (36:33):
Completely fucking this up? What was his name?
Speaker 1 (36:35):
Uh? You got it, I got it, I got it.
Speaker 3 (36:37):
It's coming. Scott Prewitt Scott Yeah something Scott Prewitt from
the EPA because he had to also resign. It was
fine when he was doing all the earth fucking shit
at the EPA, but when all these embarrassing stories came
out about like buying weird mattresses and like using like
police sirens to buy Dean and de Luca chocolate, that
he was like, come the dude.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Yeah, Trump's just like a mean girl, right, Like it's
just the thing, the story that is embarrassing is the
thing he's going to respond to. He doesn't give a
fuck if it's like there's like procedural stuff or like
a story that requires him to do reading or homework
to understand why it's bad that you're going to be
safe there. Right, it's just if it's something where people
(37:17):
are like, oh, that's a bad look, he's gonna be like, yeah,
that guy, get it out of here. He hates a
bad look. Yeah, yeah, so that's that's what you can't do.
And like this has just the right shape of that.
I'm not saying like he's definitely gonna get fired, but
it just him leaked, So there was already the leak.
It was a big bad story that they had to
(37:38):
talk their way out of and like excuse me, and
then him doing that to his wife and brother is
just like so just on the surface, which is all
Trump cares about, it looks really bad.
Speaker 3 (37:49):
It is because it is an escalation. The first one,
it's like, fine, another guy arrently put this person in there.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
Pete Hegseth was on it.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
But now Pete haig Seth started and it's not even
people that are part of the fucking government. You know,
then how do you do this?
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Now?
Speaker 2 (38:04):
I haven't seen the text, but have we considered these
might this might have just been some sexting happening that's
been misconstrued, just texting his wife like hey, baby, can't
wait to blow up some stuff.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
To blow up them hooties?
Speaker 3 (38:18):
Yeah about mahu. Yeah wait till this FA eighteen strike
package hits your base in Yemen at sixteen thirty PF. Yeah,
well well whoa no, oh sorry, I'm describing the military
strike back. Oh yeah, yeah, this is these are Yeah,
this isn't sexting, Dave.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
This is insane.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
Why is your brother being invited to our.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
Yeah you know she's not into it, She's not. If
she's out into it, you gotta go. That's fine. He
doesn't have to be involved. He is just gonna watch. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
We tried the white lotus thing. It's not working out.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
Yeah yeah. Also, just a thing that would be a
you know, year defining scandal in a democratic administration. Christie
gnomes perse got stolen with all her credentials inside and
three thousand dollars of cash. That's just it's the sort
of thing that won't make it won't even register for
this administration. But also three thousand dollars is a suspiciously
(39:15):
significant amount of cash for somebody to be holding. But
maybe not. I don't know, is that what these people they.
Speaker 3 (39:21):
Just whenever I had over two hundred dollars on me
cash and I and it wasn't in the context of
me just coming from the bank, It's because.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
I was dealing drugs, right, that's me. But that's just me.
Speaker 3 (39:34):
For her, it could be bribes, it could be a
scam or trying to be like I had three thousand.
Speaker 1 (39:41):
Dollars cash in there too, right yeah, yeah, But I
don't know who that like. I don't know if there's
like like I don't know if there's like an insurance
policy you scam to be like, oh three thouskay, Well,
she's just committing the most public insurance for up possible.
I also had a tiny pig. I also had a
tiny original Picasso.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
There, so's those other things. It was that she went
to Capital Burger. It was at a burger place. Your
fucking burgers are expensive.
Speaker 1 (40:10):
I know it is it at two in the morning,
because in that case, she was absolutely fucked up. There's
like no burger place. Yeah, losing your purse is some
fucked up drunk person behavior. Yeah no, No.
Speaker 2 (40:22):
Grand is also in like the the sex work category
of like hiring or being paid.
Speaker 3 (40:30):
Yeah, yeah, I mean, I mean it's like it is
a fancy interior. It looks like a fancy fancy it's
not like a five guys or whatever. But but yeah,
I mean yeah, please tell us more about how we
can keep America safe when you lost track of your
fucking purse and just got that shit ganked at the
burger restaurant.
Speaker 1 (40:49):
That's right, Yeah, not great. All right, let's uh, let's
take a quick break and we'll come back and talk
about the Girl Boss space flight. We'll be right back,
and we're back.
Speaker 3 (41:08):
We're back.
Speaker 2 (41:09):
What was your favorite ad jack that just played oh man.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
The one where Jeff Bezos came on himself and just
talked to us about progressive politics and like how we
need to forget about forget about them. But and let
I think he said, just let me handle it.
Speaker 3 (41:26):
Jack guys, well the actual thing when he goes the
progressive politics forget about.
Speaker 1 (41:31):
It, Jeff Bezos drunk. No anyways, Yeah, So this is
one of those familiar positions of having to shoot down
dumb conspiracies about something that itself sucks and is not
worth defending. But there were so there was a ton
(41:52):
of conspiracy theories last week that Kate So, Katy Perry
and Gail King and Jeff Bezo's girlfriend and above.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
As for former local newsperson in Los Angeles, Yes, Foxst
they went to space, came back and people were like,
I don't believe it, because I think they were just
like most people hadn't been paying attention when the billionaires
were going to space and just like kind of dipping
their toe in the space and being like, technically, we've
(42:26):
been to space.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
In your face, everybody, I am an astronaut. Any questions
an astronaut, and you will address me as such.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
The big astronaut story before this was people someone lived
in space for not that couple, yes, like.
Speaker 3 (42:39):
Ninety or something.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
Yeah, so that yeah, people were people were comparing pictures
of Katie Perry on her like little ten minute space
space in quote flight with pictures of the astronaut who
had been there for six months, and they were like,
that looks like space hair the woman who had been there,
(43:01):
whose hair was just like flowing in all directions, whereas
Katy Perry's hair was like still kind of neat and
didn't look like it had even been hit by much
wind to be honest. And people were like, that's she
didn't actually go to space, and like that's true in
the technical set.
Speaker 3 (43:16):
Like it's true that she went to space in the
technical sense, right that she right, she crossed that threshold
sixty two miles in the sky that now you are
in space. But I think it's the micro gravity of
it all that people were.
Speaker 1 (43:28):
Like, would your fucking micro grave the hair's does move? Yeah,
it's it's all and there's so one of the things
they were pointing to was the hair. Another thing they
were pointing to was that like when space capsules come
back to Earth from being actually like in outside of
the atmosphere. In space, they like get burnt and like
you can see like the burn marks on them, and
(43:50):
this one was nice and clean, and people were like,
that's well, this just looks like they just like took
it and placed it there. And of course that's because
it didn't have to come It didn't. It didn't enter
orbit and then have to come back through the atmosphere
and like turn into a ball of fire. It just
like hit the technical limit of space and then came back.
(44:12):
It was like dipping its toe in a pool and
then being like, I'm an Olympic swimmer.
Speaker 2 (44:18):
You know, and if you were faking it, you would
muddy it a little, you would. This is like a
rookie move to have a pristine capsule come back if
you're gonna fake.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
It, right right.
Speaker 3 (44:29):
Yeah. There's also the thing about like Jeff Bezos opened
the door inward.
Speaker 1 (44:33):
I was like, I don't know what the fuck that's
supposed to mean.
Speaker 3 (44:35):
Wait, it's so funny the video. Have you seen it.
Speaker 1 (44:38):
I haven't seen that.
Speaker 3 (44:39):
I haven't seen that clip. I saw that he goes up.
Speaker 2 (44:41):
They want this big moment where Jeff is like opening
the capsule, but someone inside opens it before he gets there.
They just landed, and they go to open it, and
they're like the press persons like close it, close it
because they want.
Speaker 3 (44:53):
This big like camera mode Jeff opening it. But they
had already opened this. And I think that's the thing people,
I mean, rightly, the people who have actually you know,
used that as the main point of their critique. I
think that's where it should because there's too many people
who are like, who gives a shit at these broads
when out of they're not fucking at like whatever. To
that part, it's like it's the it's the the going
(45:13):
along with the Jeff Bezos vanity space thing while like
we're well, meanwhile on Earth everything is falling apart and
we have terrible inequalities, Like come read the fucking room
here for a second. Like that's I think. The more
the critiques that I've read that, I'm like, yeah, that's
that's a bad look.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
Yeah, apparently it takes a ton of jet fuel to
like get this thing to the border of space. Like
to the point that people were saying that this used
this was as damaging to the environment as the entirety
of Taylor Swift's eras Tour is that an actual measurement
they did. I saw that somewhere, so I can tell that.
(45:51):
I can tell you that I saw it on the internet.
Speaker 2 (45:53):
I did see that on the Why don't you guys
support women reaching new heights? That's what I'm hearing. That's
so why can't we let them?
Speaker 1 (46:02):
That's what's so frustrating about is it's just like the
it's like they make us have to like side with like, well,
what you're gonna be one of these right wing trolls
that says that this is like artificial. It's like, well, no,
I don't think it's artificial. It's just it's just superficial.
Speaker 3 (46:23):
It's just dumb, and it's just it's it's meaningless in
the sense that like this is just helps bring more
attention to Bezos's space program and Katie Perry's tour, which
is so weird. And she's like flashing the set list
like you're you're spending your time in space, like and
my tour no one will go to. Here's a set
(46:44):
list for you to see. Those are other parts. I'm
just like such an eye roll. Meanwhile, they're like the
two other people that were actual like scientists. I'm glad
there are they aren't being Mary being mentioned in the
same breath, because like those should beople actual scientists, right,
Dale came at all?
Speaker 1 (46:59):
I don't know in the Laurens Loris Angeles of it all.
Speaker 2 (47:01):
Who knows, but it is it Sometimes people just use
anything as a chance to express their hate for a
specific person. Some of this feels very just like, oh,
a lot of people just don't like Katie Perry. Yeah,
this is yeah new fuel because they all deserve equal hate.
If it's like the project at large.
Speaker 1 (47:18):
Yeah, all of the things that people are pointing out
about this flight are true of like the many of
the flights that like billionaires took to space, but because
these are women, everybody is pissed off. Yeah, and like
the returning up one of the ones they're like, look
at this picture. There's like a dummy's hand in the
(47:39):
capsule and it was like a capsule from like a
test flight in twenty seventeen. They just like switched it
in for like just to I don't know, it's like
to make the case that, yeah.
Speaker 3 (47:50):
It's such a bigger l to like come after this thing.
And then with the stupidest angle like dide you this
picture from twenty seventeen. What not real?
Speaker 1 (48:00):
Why would they fake it?
Speaker 3 (48:02):
Yeah? This is in the Daily Mail. There was like
this whole thing about like Katy Perry regretting Blue Origin
flight and amidst continued criticism, It said after after insiders
told Daily Mail after the flight sparked backlash that Perry
has taken the criticism hard and was stunned by the
public branding her quote tone deaf and quote embarrassing this
(48:23):
with the insider said, Katie doesn't regret going to space.
It was life changing. What she does regret is making
a public spectacle out of it.
Speaker 2 (48:30):
M maybe maybe they need to take a book, a
page out of like the peat hagscept book. Just don't
change course, Katie Perrot.
Speaker 3 (48:40):
Just you did the thing. Stand by it.
Speaker 2 (48:42):
Don't admit you've done anything wrong.
Speaker 3 (48:44):
Just be proud of what you did.
Speaker 2 (48:46):
Just just makes it look weird, man. Yeah, the tour
would y'all.
Speaker 3 (48:51):
I love free stuff. I would lie. I would go
live on TikTok and see if I see even goes
up that far.
Speaker 1 (49:01):
I don't know, I mean up up air. Maybe I
want to say I have no desire to do that.
Speaker 3 (49:07):
I want to I mean, I want to go to
outer space just generally as a sensation, but like if
I have to do that and be one of like
Jeff Bezos's like, uh little puppets on the ship.
Speaker 1 (49:19):
I don't know about that.
Speaker 3 (49:20):
So you do a SpaceX fight, then yeah yeah, SpaceX
definite more for me.
Speaker 1 (49:24):
Yeah yeah, yeah, that one goes for the opportunity to
shake hands with Jeff Bezos.
Speaker 3 (49:31):
No, that was I was like, always one of the
highest thoughts I had in college was like, do you
remember that guy Felix Bombgartner like jumped out of that
hot air balloon from outer space?
Speaker 1 (49:40):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (49:42):
That to me, I was like, dude, I want to
get so high and do that, like just purely, both
literally and literally in both ways. Just just burn up,
go up in that hot air balloon and be like
I'm about to feel infinity all. That was the thing
I'd always say.
Speaker 1 (49:58):
In college, like, dude, just feel all around you.
Speaker 3 (50:02):
That ship must be crazy. Yeah, that was my thing.
Speaker 2 (50:05):
So they need to take the six women that did
the space fight and just hot box in a car
and let's watch the same. Just get them as high
as possible. I want to see Gail King high. I
think she could go to space.
Speaker 3 (50:16):
Yeah, that way, she'd probably say some really interesting stuff,
I'd imagine.
Speaker 1 (50:20):
All Right, I do just want to talk about the
weekend box office. Ryan Coogler's Sinners beat a Minecraft Movie
dethroned a Minecraft movie and became the number one movie
at the box office. It made forty five point six
million domestically sixty one million worldwide, beating expectations. It's the
(50:41):
best opening for an original film since pre pandemic times.
Speaker 3 (50:46):
Wait, so, which one was?
Speaker 1 (50:47):
Oh? Us?
Speaker 3 (50:49):
So? Us was the last movie? Which was the original
pre paet hunk? Okay, so another black hell interesting film
that just it blew away expectations over perform warming people
would say to be slightly pageorge. It's actually overperforming.
Speaker 1 (51:04):
Expectations are always low on these That's so weird when
it's a black filmmaker about these filmmakers that they haven't come.
Is Ryan Coogler black?
Speaker 3 (51:13):
I believe?
Speaker 1 (51:14):
Yeah? Oh nah, I couldn't be. I know a couple
of guys named Ryan who aren't so of the Ryans.
Speaker 3 (51:21):
I know my homies Ryan all white.
Speaker 1 (51:23):
Guys, all white dude. But yeah, So there's a couple headlines.
There's a variety story and a New York Times story
that like on Sunday, so like the day that the
box office is being like reported. It immediately had the
backlash take of actually, this isn't that good. Oh so,
(51:47):
Variety said, Sinners has a mass sixty one million in
its global debut. It's a great result for an original,
R rated horror film.
Speaker 3 (51:54):
Yet the Warner.
Speaker 1 (51:55):
Brothers release has a ninety million dollar price tag before
global marketing, so profitability remains a ways away.
Speaker 3 (52:03):
Sounds like if it does even a fraction of what
it did this first weekend, it's profitable.
Speaker 1 (52:08):
Yeah, it's a ways away though, like multiple days. You
know jet nover how we report on box office ever before.
But in this case, for some.
Speaker 3 (52:19):
Reason, Variety can't get fucked. They were the same people
that put out that dumb Rachel Zegler hit piece laying
like the failures of snow White on at her feet
and being like, I think it was because she's pro
Palestinian and the and then you know she had to
do her politics all out loud. That Galagha doc got
death threats, and you're like, what is the meaning of
this piece at all? Like this is nothing to do
(52:40):
with the movie.
Speaker 2 (52:40):
Who are they in the pockets of like the studios.
Speaker 3 (52:43):
Yeah, it's it's an and it's a trade. So like
they all have direct sort like lines to heads of
studios that are like, we need to you know, it's
like any media. Really.
Speaker 2 (52:53):
I saw somewhere that the director gets the rights to
this film back in twenty five years.
Speaker 1 (52:59):
Yeah, they don't.
Speaker 2 (53:00):
It's kind Yeah, I think studios want to take this
down or not exactly.
Speaker 3 (53:05):
It's not just a pure win.
Speaker 1 (53:06):
It's just like this this could be everyone's like also
spinning it as like a cautionary tale, like don't give
the black creator too much now, because it's interesting to
compare it to it once upon a time in Hollywood.
Because so. The New York Times also claimed Sinner's success
has a big asterisks, again arguing that profitability is far away,
(53:28):
and they also pointed out, Zach, what you were talking
about that Ryan Kugler gets to own the movie after
twenty five years. The New York Times said, despite not
paying for any of it, he gets to own it.
You know, he only wrote, directed and conceived of it.
Speaker 3 (53:50):
But mask off sentence even though he didn't, he's not
paying for it. Oh I'm sorry, mister will then own
it despite not paying for it. Wow, let me bow
and prostrate to the studio for exploiting my creativity.
Speaker 1 (54:06):
Like, what are you fucking talking about? I think? But yeah,
so just real quick to compare it to once upon
a time in Hollywood they had this same deal structure.
First of all, Tarantino like got ownership of that movie
after a number of years, So this is not as
unprecedent as people are making it seem. One made forty
five million on three thousand, three hundred screens after the pandemic,
(54:30):
and Tarantino made forty one million, so less on three
thousand and six hundred screens, so way more screens, which
means that they had higher expectations. And when that movie
came out, everyone was like, it's a certified box office
smash for Quentin Tarantino.
Speaker 3 (54:47):
Right, yeah, no, no it wasn't. I mean, I think
just the other stuff you see so many handing, so
much hand ringing, and like these other headlines.
Speaker 1 (54:55):
Like it could be the end of the studio system.
Speaker 3 (54:58):
M And I mean I think a lot of the
q aroun quote unquote profitability. I'm sure they have nothing
to do with the fact that, again Ryan Coogler in
negotiating this deal masterfully. He also secured a first dollar
gross deal, meaning he makes money the second tickets are sold.
He gets a taste of the box office the second
tickets starts selling, as opposed to then like waiting for
(55:20):
the studio to recoup costs, and then you get a
taste of those profits.
Speaker 1 (55:24):
Like it's they're like, oh god, this this black man
is getting too much. Now, this could be the end
of the studio system.
Speaker 3 (55:31):
Like that is just I feel like, so obviously what
all of this is about. But yeah, sure they could
be the end of the studio system. And who knows
if it could be profitable even though they're projecting it's
going to do three hundred million when everything's said and done.
Speaker 1 (55:45):
Yeah, but they, I mean, Hollywood's famous for managing expectations
and like lying about how much money a movie made
so that they can change how much money they're actually
sharing with the artists who again made the movie. But
they didn't even pay for it. Yeah, so I mean,
why why should they get it? We should we should
be worshiping the people, the capital, the people who put
(56:06):
the capital up. Not it's not these artists who didn't
even pay for it. It also just reminds me of
that Sony Leak. I bring this up so often, but
it's just such a revealing email exchange where a producer
was arguing that the studio shouldn't invest in Denzel Washington
because black actors don't perform well overseas. And this was
(56:32):
not in nineteen eighty seven. They were talking about a
sequel to The Equalizer, you know, after decades of Denzel
being one of like the most surefire movie stars. So
The Equalizer came out in twenty fourteen, was a massive hit,
and this person was like, I just don't see it. Guys. Look,
Denzel's my favorite actor. Okay, he's my favorite actor, my
(56:54):
favorite actor, but we don't want to invest in this
because you know, audiences abroad just aren't going to go
see his movies. By the way, the Equalizer too grossed
one hundred and ninety million dollars on a sixty million
dollar budget. But they just don't want to let black
artists have success because that would mean that like the
(57:18):
system that you know, gay makes it so that they
have their jobs is wrong.
Speaker 3 (57:26):
Yeah, you know, and it's it purely speaks to the
exploitative nature of it too, Like we already don't properly
compensate creators for things and to see something, especially like
if a white creator, it's one thing, but if a
black creator is doing it. Now we're talking about quote
like the like an existential crisis over the studio system. Yeah, okay, okay, okay,
(57:48):
well good luck with that. Good luck with that. I mean,
even like in La and stuff, it's like, if you
wanted to see Sinners like it was hard to catch,
like certain screenings of it. It's because people are going, like,
this is not some fucking flash in the pan thing.
And it's also as of right now, it's like his
highest rated film that he's put out. And yeah, reminder
(58:09):
of the studios.
Speaker 1 (58:11):
Let people tell fucking original stories. They fucking people like
new Ship not fucking snow White and all this other
nonsense over and over again.
Speaker 2 (58:22):
I mean, I just wish that Minecraft and Centers had
come out on the same day so we could have had.
Speaker 3 (58:29):
Miners.
Speaker 2 (58:30):
Miners, Yeah, that's Therbenheimer, so that everyone miners would be
saving the studio system.
Speaker 1 (58:40):
Actually, that sounds kind of hot, scrafter.
Speaker 3 (58:42):
Crafter, that sounds like the problematic like opt themal optometry place.
Speaker 2 (58:49):
You go to.
Speaker 3 (58:53):
Oh, you went down to sincrafters, did you? I can
tell from those transition lenses. Transition lenses, I don't I
think so you went to sing draft.
Speaker 1 (59:01):
Not on my watch, Zach Zerraman. What a pleasure of
having you on the daily Zeitgeist? Where can people find you?
Speaker 3 (59:07):

my special. And I'm on Instagram and TikTok, I'm at
zz double zz that's e z and then the word
double and then zz.
Speaker 1 (59:22):
What are the people?
Speaker 3 (59:23):
What can they expect from the special?
Speaker 2 (59:24):
Give us a little oh an hour of gut busting, laughs, poilarity,
some controversial statements.
Speaker 3 (59:32):
That's not true. It's pretty pretty easy.
Speaker 2 (59:35):
But I talk about I'd go on this little journey
figure out the definition of love because my conservative family
says they love me, but they go to the ballot
box and vote against my rights. I talk about romantic love,
self love and try to figure out like a good
definition for it, and I come up to one at
the end, but I don't want to spoil it's.
Speaker 1 (59:53):
A surprise, all right. Learned something about it was your father?
Is there a work of media that you've been enjoying
besides your own special.
Speaker 2 (01:00:05):
I am going through Black Mirror right now and just
like lapping up that new season. But the thing I
wanted to highlight James Acaster has a special called Heckler's Welcome,
and I just I saw it live two years ago
and I just screenshot a a clip and sent it
to a friend where he talks about being told before
a show that anxiety being anxious and excited or the same.
(01:00:29):
It's just whether you have a positive outlook or not.
And he's like, we all can agree that's a lie.
For sixteen years, I've been backstage. I mean like I
can't wait to get out there, like that's shaking. So
that I think that moment just I felt very seen
and so everyone should stream that special. That's good after
years in that Concurrently, there's actually hidden if you play
(01:00:54):
both message.
Speaker 1 (01:00:56):

has surprised everyone by driving among cheering crowds on VIA day,
you know, coaching the on a on Easter Sunday. And
(01:01:57):
it's a video of the Pope just driving by in
an amazing pope all white Mercedes four by four, you know,
one of those cars that look like they're hunting Jason Bourne,
but it's all white. And then Noah Garfunkle tweeted, he
didn't surprise me because I stay fucking ready. That was
(01:02:17):
before the Pope die, and then after the Pope died,
Mike Bovis tweeted, in retrospect, maybe we should have seen
this coming, and he had a screencap JD. Van's full
name and it was just killed Dup Hope Vance. You

think people might enjoy?
Speaker 3 (01:02:59):
You know, I'm young, so I get all my musical
suggestions from TikTok Uh. You probably saw this video of
like this like shepherd in Spain, like like leading his
flock down a road and it's like as far as
the eye can see sheep. But there's a track playing
in the song in the in this video that's fucking
so good. It's by this group called Los Jungitos and
(01:03:19):
they are like like a I guess they're described as
a Spanish romani rumba flamenca group, but this track kind
of has like sort of funky rumba disco e vibes.
It came out like in the late seventies and the
vocals like, if you like gypsy Kings will definitely like
this this vibe. But this is a track called Como
Yegua Brava by LUs.
Speaker 1 (01:03:41):
Jungitos, And it's tunny, it's a, it's a, it's a.
It brings joy, It sparks joy. It sparks joy. So
get it. There is a There are versions of it
on streaming by other groups. The best version.
Speaker 3 (01:03:51):
Unfortunately I haven't found it on streaming, so I can
find on YouTube. But there are versions of this track
on streaming, but we will link off to the YouTube
version of the foot Nope.
Speaker 1 (01:04:00):
You know who else was a shepherd with cheap as
far as the eye could see.

is going to do it for us this morning. We're
back this afternoon to tell you what is trending, and
we will talk to you all then Bye,
Okay, First of all, some some flames on your plane
when you land is just a way of celebrating that
you've landed in Florida. That's just those are celebratory flames.
Helps with the disembark It makes the disembarking process more
efficient because people are getting off the plane more quickly
because of the black smoke, and you get to use
the slide. How often do you get to use the slide? Also,
(00:25):
So one of the big problems that we have with
the air it's just the air traffic controllers are asleep
at the wheel literally because they don't let them sleep,
and so these little near death accident things are like
they jolt them away for like at least a couple
of days. So I think you're in actually.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Really good in Orlando right now.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Yeah. Yeah, they're very keen to not repeat this mistake
within the next few days. So these are these are
the rumble strips of air traffic. Air air travel. You
know how rumble strips are actually there so that when
truckers fall asleep, they like drift off to the side
and then they're like, oh, that's what these little accidents are,
these little oopsies. They are like rumble strips for the
(01:12):
air travel industry.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
An entire plane engine has to catch fire.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
That is the unfortunate consequence.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Black smoke, you said, though, sounds like we got a
new pope.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
We got a new pope. We don't, right, it doesn't
have to be white smoke.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Which one is it? We vote again, black smoke, black pope.
Maybe some black pope, black pope, black poope.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yeah, I don't, I need I need a rhyming mnemonic
device for like, white smoke, pope pope. Not here, black
smoke pope.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Black black, Yes, black key's back there we go back
white good night.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
There it is.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
We got it all right. Next next right.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
From Swish Alright, Hello the Internet, and welcome to season three,
eighty five, Episode two of Dirt Daily. Zight Guys, a
production of iHeartRadio. This is a podcast where we take
a deep dive into America sharing consciousness. That it is Tuesday,

it's school bus driver Appreciation Day. Shout out your school
bus driver, shout out. It's National Jellybean Day. Not a fan.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I'm not a fan of jelly Day. Jelly beat, so
fuck all that.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Also National Girl Scout leaders Day and National Earth Day,
but only national so I guess only America. This is
the only day America will recognize O Earth.
Speaker 1 (02:52):

Speaker 3 (02:53):
It's nationals on Global Earth.
Speaker 1 (02:55):

by completely ignoring it.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Exactly exactly. Don't don't bumb us out Earth.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
You can have like little Earth decorations at the at
the office. Myles, why do you why why do you
hate jelly beans? It's not like the fucking texture. Yeah,
the type, because there there are like the Starbus jelly
beans flavor wise pretty good.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
I you know what. I actually bought those to put
in an Easter basket from my nieces over the weekend,
and I was like, damn, I might, I might try these,
but I didn't end up trying them. I only bought
him because they weren't jelly belly.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
They taste good, but they are like the primary ingredient
is like lack her like it. It's like, you know,
I feel like it's whatever that bug thing is bug
mucus that they like make to like make a thing shiny,
and it's probably illegal in European countries. I feel like
that's the primary ingredient of jelly Jelli Betty. Yeah, but anyways,
(03:58):
I think they're a lot of fun. I'm also a
huge Reagan fan and that was his that was his
main thing. That would be if he if he had
an action figure, there would be just a bowl of
jelly beans next to him. What a cool guy. My

Oh yeah, fucking waiting for this asshole to step aside.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I'm so sorry.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Anyway, I'm still the Lord of Lancasham. Obviously you are
still hoping, hoping to get named the new Pope.

Look you know I'm holding out. I'm holding out I'm open.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
To a little cha.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
I'm open to it. Yeah.

comedy where like Jack Goodman finds out like gets a call.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
So you're basically saying, they're saying King Ralph, King Ralph, but.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Pope Ralph. I like that you went to a sequel.

This is called being a really pathetic person with the podcast.
This is.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Welcome this world of podcasting. What's your favorite movie? You
want to quote, bro, I'd love to hear it.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I I will argue we're not in a quotable movie era,
I haven't heard it. Good, I'll be back, or a
good I mean, I drink your milkshake was maybe the
most recent, like great quote, that's kind of what was
the last?
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Yeah, like maybe some ship like like bane or yeah,
just like people doing the voice.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
I feel like I was born of the dog.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
That's right. I was born in the dark. It is
pretty good, pretty undeniable. I have.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
I have a phenomenal impression that is no longer culturally relevant,
but it is pitch perfect if I can get into
the different Go ahead, prepare previously on Lost.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
That's good? Oh I fifteen sixteen twenty three forteen.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Wait was it for eight fifteen sixteen twenty three forty two?
He's good. Yeah, he's good. Like numbers. They some say
I am an idiot. Not pennies playing, not pennies playing,
not pennies playing. Oh, Penny's boat, Penny's boat. Oh again
with the fact check song Zach to.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Steal to steal trap up there?
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Yes, Yeah, welcome, Welcome to the Insufferable Assholes Podcast. We
got Zach Zimmerman on Today, Is it exhausting being all
the time, and it's exhausting being married to me? Are
we are you proposing proposing? My wife doesn't leave me
for just constantly sundowning with weird out of context movie
(10:15):
and TV show.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Quotes, incorrect, incorrect.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
I overhear something while we're recording. I opened the door.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
I'm like, not right, yeah, yeah, yeah, this smoke. No,
that wasn't Jacob. That miss quoted me and girls. Yeah,
all right, Zach, we're going to get to know you
a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going
to tell our listeners a couple of things we're talking
about today. Uh. Pete hag seth Uh. We talked about
it on yesterday's Trending, But things seem to be devolving
(10:46):
for Pete in terms of his ability to stay employed
as Secretary of Defense. He said yesterday he said he
was saying over the weekend, I talked to Trump. He
said we're good. So we're good, which is a he's
a good sign. Yeah, when the person has quotes about
what Trump said to them behind closed doors, but no
(11:07):
Trump quotes are forthcoming on that person's behalf. So we'll
continue to talk about the fallout from him, well, also
just general sloppiness from this administration. We'll also talk about
Christy nomes purse being stolen with three thousand dollars cash
inside allegedly. We'll talk about the continued fallout from Katy
(11:28):
Perry's trip to space.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Kind of everyone everyone's kind of getting flack, but a
lot of people the Katy Perry of it all I
think was especially kind of humiliating for her because now,
like over the weekend there's like things in the Daily
Mail where it's one of her confidants is like, yes,
I think she kind of regrets doing all that, doing
the most up there during that life stream.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
I mean, it's I think we're like the real problem,
just don't do like massive publicity stunts with Jeff Bay Like,
I think I feel like that might be your problem
right there, not so much over here and down there,
but right around the Jeff Bezos photo op. So we'll
talk about that, and then we'll talk about the movie Sinners,
(12:15):
a huge hit. Ryan Coogler's Sinners all sorts of incredibly
impressive results. Best performance by an original movie since before
the pandemic. Wow, that's fucking wild and the Variety and
other kind of mainstream media outlets are like, I mean, okay,
(12:39):
I guess you could say that's good. Why it's not good? Yeah,
so we'll talk about why why there might be a
double standard. Have you ever heard about one of those?
A double standard?
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Is that like a single standard?
Speaker 1 (12:52):
So it's similar to a single standard, but you do
you do a different one for a different person. It's interesting. Yeah, yeah,
I know it's we know nothing.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Of it in my world, Zach. It's going to spin
when you hear this, Zach.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
You're not gonna believe it.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Like one of those those humanoid robots in the marathon.
Your head will spin right off.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
All that plenty more. But first, Zach, we do like
to ask our guest, what is something from your search
history that's revealing about who you are?
Speaker 2 (13:22):
So on Sunday, I got high and went to an
evangelical church service, Oh my God, which I thought it
was for twenty Easter.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Let me do it.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
I haven't been that is twenty years.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And I wow, you did the two things I did it, Yeah, the.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Two was worried. I was worried I would leave converted.
But what I actually thought was the thing that I searched,
which is while this pastor, this young handsome guy's given
his sermon, I'm like, is his wife blowing him like our?
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Can Christians give blow jobs?
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
So I googled can Christians give blowjobs? I was just
that's where my high brain went.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Yeah. So the whole time he's talking and you're like, dude,
what if it's like it's like a sin to get
domed up from valve Holme's part where.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
He came to because he's I don't know, so wholesome.
I just couldn't see anything other.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Oh, you saw he as like asexual almost No.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
I saw a pro creative, gentle, condomless penetrative he was.
He had like the gay haircut from ten years ago
to I don't know if that's the fashion now amongst
straight pastors, but he had like a skin fade on
the sides.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
He was a handsome guy.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
You wul talk telling me about the Gospel and how
the Resurrection of Christ matters. But turns out yes, in
the in a marital context. I read an article on
Christian context. Yeah, as long as everyone is enjoying it
was that part of it. Sure, Yeah, that doesn't sound
like Christianity. To me, that doesn't sound right. I think
(15:09):
we have to go back everything. Did you wait to
leave before you googled that?
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (15:14):
I didn't want it'd be wild, like someone just looks
over your shoulder from the eye behind.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
I had to fight the urge to be like, you're
all sheep, this is a lie. Wait, so what I mean?
What even drew you to do that? You said it's
been twenty years. Was it just kind of like a
morbid curiosity, like let me get fucking really high and
then subject myself to a Easter service? Yeah? I was curious.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
I mean I think I always like I have a
bunch of like evangelical trauma. So it's kind of fun
when I can go back and be above it, right right,
kind of not feel triggered by this space and see
it from a distance. Part I was curious, and then
I was I don't know. I think there was some
thing that gleaned from me. He was saying, God thinks
you should live your life to the fullest. I was like, okay,
(16:04):
I can get behind that.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Okay, influencer, I'm with that. Or or maybe I.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Hoped that they would like say something salacious or interesting.
I am always curious about the role Hell plays today,
Like I grew up tons of hell in church. Now
so much like they bury hell now they barely talk.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
About I don't even talk about hell anymore. No, Yeah,
I got my fill of evangelical stuff. And when I
lived in Kentucky for a few years, and yeah, they
were they were telling people that were going to hell,
like who died? Like a kid died and they were like,
we don't think he was saved. Unfortunately, so he saved.
(16:45):
Oh God, by the way, do you think that your
search killed the pope? Like you searching that on Easter?
Do you think that that was too much.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
For I think he was making a similar search and
God got domed up. People are thinking JD killed the pope.
JD pleased the pope and.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Oh interesting, if he please. This is the type of
conspiracy theory I'm here for, because it's not that, you.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Know, his toppy game is next level, that he took
the pope to death.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
There was a reason he got appointed despite them being
very different parts of the Conservative Party.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
He's got mad.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Those lips, eyelashes, those eyelashes.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Was he Kentucky?
Speaker 1 (17:33):
I thought Ohio, Southern Ohio maybe sounds right, Yeah, Zach,
what's something he thinks underrated?
Speaker 2 (17:39):
The dunkin Donuts mobile app brings me a lot of joy.
I don't hear people talking about it enough. I am.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
I'm rolling into a dunkin. My order is already ready
for me. I'm getting points. They just had a promotion.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
I got four points four times points on National Coal
Brew Day a few days ago. The offers, the offers
are consistent. Then the products are what you pay for,
what's your download the dunkin donn use promo code? Zach Zimmerman.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
The So this is one of those things where you
hear people who are like privacy experts say, don't use
the apps because they're like selling your information or they're
and but on the other hand, they are better, Like
a lot of them are just much better than not
using the apps. And I'm like, who, what's dunkin Donuts
(18:32):
gonna do with my my psychographic data? Yeah, Like, I
don't know that they build a psychographic data profile of
me and it knows that like like what I'm in
the mood for. I'm sure there's like some darker you
know that I did submit a DNA sample to them,
and that might have been a little bit overboard.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
I was gonna tell you them, like Jack, you can
just enter in the app that sour cream donuts are
your favorite donut.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
No, I better do this for the DNA sample. So
I might be in some trouble for another reason. But
what's your what's your go to at Duncan, I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
A black cole Brew medium and recently they've had a
dunk King's promotion six dollars for.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
I put that crown on your head, King with the
crown on.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
My head, and then donut wise, I'm not going to
Duncan for my donuts.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Oh wow, sorry, Yeah, so your order is mostly just coffee.
It's just coffee.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Yeah, okay, good for you. That actually makes makes sense
to me. I think I think that's right. I think
you're right. Decisions point.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yes, thanks my sponsorship. They were like, you shout on
half of our business.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Shout on the part of the business that's in the donuts.
Not a fan of Actually they're not called donuts anymore,
so they know what's up.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Oh yeah, they deleted that a while.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Oh they're just Duncan, They're just Dunkin.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I think I hopped at that too. There, like we're
not International House of Pancakes anymore.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
We're just yeah, And that's so you're aware, so that
that doesn't mean anything. Yeah, I hop doesn't.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
It's a it's a discontinued Apple robot toy.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
They were thinking about releasing the Iye hop and we didn't. Yeah,
we just it's they went from like being a donut
thing to being like, we're fucking cranking here. American runs
on Duncan right. Their whole thing is just yeah, they
know where what side they're bread is buttered on it
and it's a weird legal speed. Yeah, what what's something
(20:38):
you think's overrated?
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Lady Gaga? Just kidding? I love Yeah, yeah, no, but.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
I do think Miles's face was dead?
Speaker 3 (20:49):
So what happened?
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Gotcha?
Speaker 2 (20:52):
I do think maybe it depends on your community, but
I think outdoor music festivals have never appealed to me,
and people seem to be having a lot of fun
outside in the hot sun at a music festival, rocking out.
I'm seeing not in responses from you boys. I guess
(21:14):
I'm gone for the wrong thing.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
No, No, I'm saying, oh, we're yeah, I'm in the
elder community.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
What community were you speaking from?
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Which is basically, Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Have
I aged out of when being a horde was fun? Well,
I think the heat makes it suck. That's why I
like Coachella. The times when it was hot.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I'm like, this is fucking terrible, Like I can't handle
this shit, but no, I'm I'm I'm there with you.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Like, the lineup has to be really good for me
to want to be like in a massive people yeah,
And I think that's the thing. As I become older
and more washed, I went from knowing like eighty percent
of the lineups I would see on a given like
life a for a festival, to now being like, I
know the headliners and like six them artists on there,
and I'm you know, I'm just realizing the pace at
(22:03):
which new artists come out is just it.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
It's hard.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
So the aging makes you crave comfort more. And also
the music is not as alluring to overcome the discomfort.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
I mean, although I love outside lands, and that's because
the temperature in the gold and Golden Gate Park in
San Francisco is just conducive to being able to like
stand outside for many hours without becoming exhausted from merely
being outside.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Maybe I'm willing, Maybe I'm willing to adjust then to
hot too hot? Yeah, what's operted hot temperatures?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Wait?
Speaker 3 (22:37):
Well yeah, for too long, we've been celebrating ninety degrees.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
We should have been celebrating sixty six oh point sixgree
thank you, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Did you see yo? Did you see the clips of
Justin Bieber at Coachella?
Speaker 1 (22:53):
No turning out? He look sorry, I'm trying to act young.
This is but the hair tent was really hitting.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Oh my god. There's also this other artist that I
I've we've gone out on a couple of her songs,
Lola Young. She was super sick last week and was
like choking back, like she was like gagging on stage.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
She was so sick.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
It was like, oh, I felt so bad. I was like, oh,
She's like, I'm nervous, I'm sick. It was too hot.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
This is like the worst fucking performance I've ever had.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
The lyrics actually, yeah, nervous, hot, I'm too sick. Sorry,
this is the worst.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
So what happened with Justin Bieber? Because I saw headlines
and it's just seeing people kind of break down is
sowmat depressing to me?
Speaker 3 (23:39):
So I don't know, Yeah, he was just he just
looked like he was off the ships. I don't know,
he just did not look was he there he was performing? No, no, no, no,
he was just like in the like crowd and ship
and just like people were flicks at him. Okay, like
he you know, he just looks like it looks super
fucked up. Oh yeah, and like you know, we we
(24:02):
just you see this all the time, like so many
of these kids who start off like becoming celebrities really young.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
It's just it's.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Always like such a dark path. Uh sound like good? God,
I feel I hope, I hope you get better. Justin Bieber,
this didn't look good.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
I can't wait until the TikTok kid stars today have
their crashouts in twenty years, like the cute kid who's
like thank you mommy for his meals or the.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Rizler watch it. Yeah, that's gonna be bad.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
It'll probably be like at a at a Costco or
some ship too.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
You know, they'll bring back the dooms. Have you guys
talked about the doom meter?
Speaker 3 (24:45):
No? No, you know the booms?
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Right? Of course, everything, every every story we covered today's
episode Zach will be covered will be raided by booms.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
The Costco guys used to give things boom or dooms.
Oh really, no, they had this rebrand. I think about
the time they went on Fallon where they changed it.
It's all booms.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
Yeah, I didn't care for it.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Sold out.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Yeah, they've captured. They really did.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
They've been catching How bad a doom is basically one boom?
Okay yeah in situation yeah, because they don't want to
give anything a doom because then they won't get their life.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
I knew that little I knew that little boy was
a fucking coward.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
I will say, I think the Rizzler I'm taking the
over on him. I thought, I think the Wrizzler is
going to be the president of the United States. I
don't think there's a crash out coming.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
I think damn.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
I think he will only astound and amaze us from
this point. They had a Reddit bot for real life.
Remind me in ten years, is this your king?
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Yeah, he did get some traction over Easter, like I
saw he his risen.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
What's happening?
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Wow? Yeah, fun.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
I don't think anyone noticed that until the Rizzler.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Yeah, we've always been saying there take a break. Jesus,
let me hand, let me handle things.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Man. Let's uh yeah, let's take a break. Let Jesus
hand take the wheel for a couple of minutes of ads,
and we'll be right back to talk about some news.
And we're back back in that part where you look
(26:32):
back and you see only ads. That was the part
where he was carrying us all you guys, it's not
a full episode unless I make a footstep of reference
to the footsteps.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
Which was your favorite ad that just played? Probably the
Chipotle one?
Speaker 1 (26:49):

Speaker 3 (29:01):
Isn't that coffee?
Speaker 1 (29:02):
That's right? Hey? And if we're being honest, and I
think we are Zach today blew my mind? Yeah, today
only we're being honest. Let's talk about Pete Haig sat
Zach fan? Are you a fan? You know?
Speaker 3 (29:16):
I I liked his early work.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
This guy so good. Not washing your hands.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
He's such a messy little bitch, which is okay. We've
learned if you're president, but if you're secretary of Defense,
you got to be a little serious about your.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
Job a little bit. That's one of the big ones. Yeah,
he just likes being He's like, well, I have slick
back hair, and I always have like an America handkerchief
in my pocket, so I'm defensive.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Secretary of Defense.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
I don't trust handsome people in roles where they should
just know lots of things. There's a reason why they
call Washington d C Hollywood for ugly people.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
It's because it's that. But they're smarter than.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
People in Hollywood. That's just and that's why they're taking
Pete hagg Seth down. He's too beautiful. They're just jealous
with his That should be his defense. With his current
defense of you guys just hate me because you ain't me.
Liberal media isn't really working. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
So I mean, look, we've there's been Signal Gate, Signal
Gate two.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
Now NPR is reporting that inside the White House the
search hath begun for a new drunken white supremacist super
soldier to be Secretary of Defense. So yeah, I just
I think we were all shocked just because he's terrible
at his job and you know, like I just don't understand,
and like his appointment has only led to more chaos
(30:36):
within the Pentagon. Dude, this fucking this place has gone soft.
I've been saying this for a long time. Mass firings
are a good thing no matter what. And Pete Hegseth
I think proved that. But over the weekend too, like
all of the Hegseth flunkys at the Pentagon really did
their best to try and make this a nonswen. It's
like another day, another fake story, blowing stuff out of proportion.
(30:57):
Like he know, he absolutely cares about the the like
the safety of our our war fighters, our warriors, and yeah,
like we said on Monday's episode, when hag Seth was
speaking to the press at the White House, it looks
now looking at what we know now, I'm like, oh, this.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Guy really was. He was fighting for his life with
he was tilting. Yeah, he was on edge. She's like
looking at the camera, Zach, I don't assume that you
watched Pete Hegseeth's interview at the White White House Easter egg.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Roll But.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Okay, interesting, good, Well it would be good because he
is making deep eye contact with just down the barrel
of the camera for no reason, and like in a
way that's just feels really un media trained for somebody
who's got their start being a talking head on television.
But I think I think he's just kind of erratic
and probably you know, six whiskeys deep. It's pretty late
(31:57):
on Sunday morning.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
So I don't know. I mean, this is the one
they wanted, you know, Like this is they were like,
this guy will do the most damage and.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Do it unflinchingly, unquestioningly.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
So I know, in terms of like the utter destruction
of norms angle, I think they really wanted him, but
who knows at this point. Yeah, I mean they might
just honestly be like gets like a true like a
like a war criminal out of like a cryo freeze
that they reanimated to be like, and we.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
Got Andrew Jackson back, baby.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
But yeah, that's we will see where they go with this.
But it sounds like basically because the Pentagon was just
in full chaos mode, it was taking up too much
of Trump's attention because.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
Then he can't golf, and He's like, well then I
need to get rid of someone.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
But on that at that same Easter Egg event, someone
asked him about he Pete Hegseth, and he was like,
just ask the nineties banned the hooties, what they think
of Pete heg Seth. This was him giving his semi
vote of confidence to Pete Hegseeth as.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
The hoodies, how much ysfunction? There's run Peach's doing a great.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
Job, he said at not the Hoothies in Yemen. He's
he was trying to reference the Hoothies who they were bombing.
He said it was doing a good job. Ask the Hooties, well,
all right, as.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
The Hoodies, how much ysfunctions? There's run, dude, he doesn't.
He can't even get through a sense of swish. That's
just the hoodies. But yeah, we're gonna fire him.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
All I can hear.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
All I can think is the hoodies as a synonym
for boobs. And I'm trying to think of a situation
where someone is like, asked the boobs if they had fun, and.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
It's like, who are you talking about?
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Sorry?
Speaker 3 (33:52):
I mean that up?
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Yeah, fire him, fire him, that was bad, Get rid
of him, Get rid of him for a replacement. Because
Trump is so television brained. Do we think he's going
to try and go after the general from the.
Speaker 3 (34:07):
Those car insurance rate in town?
Speaker 1 (34:09):
Yeah? I feel like the General would be on a
short list. I mean, at this point it could probably.
It would probably even be like when Lacey Mosley dressed.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
As the General for Halloween that one year, that she
would somehow be good enough get me that General. It's
like that's Lacey Mosley. No, no, no, the Jed that
that one, the beautiful one.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
We could bring in cap and Crunch from retirement.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
Yeah, I mean have him lead the way.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
He does have that mark on his record where the
flub where oops all crunch berries. You know, he admitted
up an admitted fuck.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
Upon must make clear.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
We make mistakes, we kill some people, we apologize for
those mistakes.
Speaker 3 (34:49):
We're moving fast, and then we move fast.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:51):
I mean at this rate though, too. I didn't even
believe they'd be like, we've actually brought back Dwight Eisenhower
as an AI to make all the decisions. Who better
then the great ike Dwight Eisenhower.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (35:03):
I mean like they'll they it'll just be someone that he.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Can control and end of story. But I don't know.
Speaker 3 (35:11):
I mean, I think it's a good It's always a
good sign when they can't stomach their own cabinet members
so quickly, and then so quickly they're just like, yeah, bro.
Speaker 1 (35:20):
We don't. They're all fucking They're all suck at this
and it's causing more problems.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
We thought once you once you enter office, everyone just
blindly does what you say, even if it's illegal or immoral.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Yeah, it's only certain, only certain instances they do that.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
That's a beautiful frame, or just to be like, oh
this is good. They're firing someone who did a bad thing.
There's no there is a limit, there is a line.
Speaker 3 (35:43):
I think it's more that it's there. Just don't embarrass us,
like do all the illegal shit. But the second now
everyone's like, look at these fucking just completely inept people
trying to be serious about running the government. I think
that's where they have trouble because then they have to
go out. They'll be like who hasn't leaked warp? Like
you know what I mean, Like they have to do
(36:03):
that same thing where they just like distill like a
really terrible thing down to a very basic premise. Who
hasn't leaked classified information ahead of a military strike.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
On the Hoho Thies?
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (36:17):
You get was?
Speaker 3 (36:19):
Yeah you get one?
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Yeah? Two? Never two?
Speaker 3 (36:22):
Exactly same thing with like you know this happened with
what's his face? Like the former EPA guy during Trump's
first what the fuck?
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Uh down?
Speaker 3 (36:33):
Completely fucking this up? What was his name?
Speaker 1 (36:35):
Uh? You got it, I got it, I got it.
Speaker 3 (36:37):
It's coming. Scott Prewitt Scott Yeah something Scott Prewitt from
the EPA because he had to also resign. It was
fine when he was doing all the earth fucking shit
at the EPA, but when all these embarrassing stories came
out about like buying weird mattresses and like using like
police sirens to buy Dean and de Luca chocolate, that
he was like, come the dude.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Yeah, Trump's just like a mean girl, right, Like it's
just the thing, the story that is embarrassing is the
thing he's going to respond to. He doesn't give a
fuck if it's like there's like procedural stuff or like
a story that requires him to do reading or homework
to understand why it's bad that you're going to be
safe there. Right, it's just if it's something where people
(37:17):
are like, oh, that's a bad look, he's gonna be like, yeah,
that guy, get it out of here. He hates a
bad look. Yeah, yeah, so that's that's what you can't do.
And like this has just the right shape of that.
I'm not saying like he's definitely gonna get fired, but
it just him leaked, So there was already the leak.
It was a big bad story that they had to
(37:38):
talk their way out of and like excuse me, and
then him doing that to his wife and brother is
just like so just on the surface, which is all
Trump cares about, it looks really bad.
Speaker 3 (37:49):
It is because it is an escalation. The first one,
it's like, fine, another guy arrently put this person in there.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
Pete Hegseth was on it.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
But now Pete haig Seth started and it's not even
people that are part of the fucking government. You know,
then how do you do this?
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Now?
Speaker 2 (38:04):
I haven't seen the text, but have we considered these
might this might have just been some sexting happening that's
been misconstrued, just texting his wife like hey, baby, can't
wait to blow up some stuff.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
To blow up them hooties?
Speaker 3 (38:18):
Yeah about mahu. Yeah wait till this FA eighteen strike
package hits your base in Yemen at sixteen thirty PF. Yeah,
well well whoa no, oh sorry, I'm describing the military
strike back. Oh yeah, yeah, this is these are Yeah,
this isn't sexting, Dave.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
This is insane.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
Why is your brother being invited to our.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
Yeah you know she's not into it, She's not. If
she's out into it, you gotta go. That's fine. He
doesn't have to be involved. He is just gonna watch. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
We tried the white lotus thing. It's not working out.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
Yeah yeah. Also, just a thing that would be a
you know, year defining scandal in a democratic administration. Christie
gnomes perse got stolen with all her credentials inside and
three thousand dollars of cash. That's just it's the sort
of thing that won't make it won't even register for
this administration. But also three thousand dollars is a suspiciously
(39:15):
significant amount of cash for somebody to be holding. But
maybe not. I don't know, is that what these people they.
Speaker 3 (39:21):
Just whenever I had over two hundred dollars on me
cash and I and it wasn't in the context of
me just coming from the bank, It's because.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
I was dealing drugs, right, that's me. But that's just me.
Speaker 3 (39:34):
For her, it could be bribes, it could be a
scam or trying to be like I had three thousand.
Speaker 1 (39:41):
Dollars cash in there too, right yeah, yeah, But I
don't know who that like. I don't know if there's
like like I don't know if there's like an insurance
policy you scam to be like, oh three thouskay, Well,
she's just committing the most public insurance for up possible.
I also had a tiny pig. I also had a
tiny original Picasso.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
There, so's those other things. It was that she went
to Capital Burger. It was at a burger place. Your
fucking burgers are expensive.
Speaker 1 (40:10):
I know it is it at two in the morning,
because in that case, she was absolutely fucked up. There's
like no burger place. Yeah, losing your purse is some
fucked up drunk person behavior. Yeah no, No.
Speaker 2 (40:22):
Grand is also in like the the sex work category
of like hiring or being paid.
Speaker 3 (40:30):
Yeah, yeah, I mean, I mean it's like it is
a fancy interior. It looks like a fancy fancy it's
not like a five guys or whatever. But but yeah,
I mean yeah, please tell us more about how we
can keep America safe when you lost track of your
fucking purse and just got that shit ganked at the
burger restaurant.
Speaker 1 (40:49):
That's right, Yeah, not great. All right, let's uh, let's
take a quick break and we'll come back and talk
about the Girl Boss space flight. We'll be right back,
and we're back.
Speaker 3 (41:08):
We're back.
Speaker 2 (41:09):
What was your favorite ad jack that just played oh man.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
The one where Jeff Bezos came on himself and just
talked to us about progressive politics and like how we
need to forget about forget about them. But and let
I think he said, just let me handle it.
Speaker 3 (41:26):
Jack guys, well the actual thing when he goes the
progressive politics forget about.
Speaker 1 (41:31):
It, Jeff Bezos drunk. No anyways, Yeah, So this is
one of those familiar positions of having to shoot down
dumb conspiracies about something that itself sucks and is not
worth defending. But there were so there was a ton
(41:52):
of conspiracy theories last week that Kate So, Katy Perry
and Gail King and Jeff Bezo's girlfriend and above.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
As for former local newsperson in Los Angeles, Yes, Foxst
they went to space, came back and people were like,
I don't believe it, because I think they were just
like most people hadn't been paying attention when the billionaires
were going to space and just like kind of dipping
their toe in the space and being like, technically, we've
(42:26):
been to space.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
In your face, everybody, I am an astronaut. Any questions
an astronaut, and you will address me as such.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
The big astronaut story before this was people someone lived
in space for not that couple, yes, like.
Speaker 3 (42:39):
Ninety or something.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
Yeah, so that yeah, people were people were comparing pictures
of Katie Perry on her like little ten minute space
space in quote flight with pictures of the astronaut who
had been there for six months, and they were like,
that looks like space hair the woman who had been there,
(43:01):
whose hair was just like flowing in all directions, whereas
Katy Perry's hair was like still kind of neat and
didn't look like it had even been hit by much
wind to be honest. And people were like, that's she
didn't actually go to space, and like that's true in
the technical set.
Speaker 3 (43:16):
Like it's true that she went to space in the
technical sense, right that she right, she crossed that threshold
sixty two miles in the sky that now you are
in space. But I think it's the micro gravity of
it all that people were.
Speaker 1 (43:28):
Like, would your fucking micro grave the hair's does move? Yeah,
it's it's all and there's so one of the things
they were pointing to was the hair. Another thing they
were pointing to was that like when space capsules come
back to Earth from being actually like in outside of
the atmosphere. In space, they like get burnt and like
you can see like the burn marks on them, and
(43:50):
this one was nice and clean, and people were like,
that's well, this just looks like they just like took
it and placed it there. And of course that's because
it didn't have to come It didn't. It didn't enter
orbit and then have to come back through the atmosphere
and like turn into a ball of fire. It just
like hit the technical limit of space and then came back.
(44:12):
It was like dipping its toe in a pool and
then being like, I'm an Olympic swimmer.
Speaker 2 (44:18):
You know, and if you were faking it, you would
muddy it a little, you would. This is like a
rookie move to have a pristine capsule come back if
you're gonna fake.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
It, right right.
Speaker 3 (44:29):
Yeah. There's also the thing about like Jeff Bezos opened
the door inward.
Speaker 1 (44:33):
I was like, I don't know what the fuck that's
supposed to mean.
Speaker 3 (44:35):
Wait, it's so funny the video. Have you seen it.
Speaker 1 (44:38):
I haven't seen that.
Speaker 3 (44:39):
I haven't seen that clip. I saw that he goes up.
Speaker 2 (44:41):
They want this big moment where Jeff is like opening
the capsule, but someone inside opens it before he gets there.
They just landed, and they go to open it, and
they're like the press persons like close it, close it
because they want.
Speaker 3 (44:53):
This big like camera mode Jeff opening it. But they
had already opened this. And I think that's the thing people,
I mean, rightly, the people who have actually you know,
used that as the main point of their critique. I
think that's where it should because there's too many people
who are like, who gives a shit at these broads
when out of they're not fucking at like whatever. To
that part, it's like it's the it's the the going
(45:13):
along with the Jeff Bezos vanity space thing while like
we're well, meanwhile on Earth everything is falling apart and
we have terrible inequalities, Like come read the fucking room
here for a second. Like that's I think. The more
the critiques that I've read that, I'm like, yeah, that's
that's a bad look.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
Yeah, apparently it takes a ton of jet fuel to
like get this thing to the border of space. Like
to the point that people were saying that this used
this was as damaging to the environment as the entirety
of Taylor Swift's eras Tour is that an actual measurement
they did. I saw that somewhere, so I can tell that.
(45:51):
I can tell you that I saw it on the internet.
Speaker 2 (45:53):
I did see that on the Why don't you guys
support women reaching new heights? That's what I'm hearing. That's
so why can't we let them?
Speaker 1 (46:02):
That's what's so frustrating about is it's just like the
it's like they make us have to like side with like, well,
what you're gonna be one of these right wing trolls
that says that this is like artificial. It's like, well, no,
I don't think it's artificial. It's just it's just superficial.
Speaker 3 (46:23):
It's just dumb, and it's just it's it's meaningless in
the sense that like this is just helps bring more
attention to Bezos's space program and Katie Perry's tour, which
is so weird. And she's like flashing the set list
like you're you're spending your time in space, like and
my tour no one will go to. Here's a set
(46:44):
list for you to see. Those are other parts. I'm
just like such an eye roll. Meanwhile, they're like the
two other people that were actual like scientists. I'm glad
there are they aren't being Mary being mentioned in the
same breath, because like those should beople actual scientists, right,
Dale came at all?
Speaker 1 (46:59):
I don't know in the Laurens Loris Angeles of it all.
Speaker 2 (47:01):
Who knows, but it is it Sometimes people just use
anything as a chance to express their hate for a
specific person. Some of this feels very just like, oh,
a lot of people just don't like Katie Perry. Yeah,
this is yeah new fuel because they all deserve equal hate.
If it's like the project at large.
Speaker 1 (47:18):
Yeah, all of the things that people are pointing out
about this flight are true of like the many of
the flights that like billionaires took to space, but because
these are women, everybody is pissed off. Yeah, and like
the returning up one of the ones they're like, look
at this picture. There's like a dummy's hand in the
(47:39):
capsule and it was like a capsule from like a
test flight in twenty seventeen. They just like switched it
in for like just to I don't know, it's like
to make the case that, yeah.
Speaker 3 (47:50):
It's such a bigger l to like come after this thing.
And then with the stupidest angle like dide you this
picture from twenty seventeen. What not real?
Speaker 1 (48:00):
Why would they fake it?
Speaker 3 (48:02):
Yeah? This is in the Daily Mail. There was like
this whole thing about like Katy Perry regretting Blue Origin
flight and amidst continued criticism, It said after after insiders
told Daily Mail after the flight sparked backlash that Perry
has taken the criticism hard and was stunned by the
public branding her quote tone deaf and quote embarrassing this
(48:23):
with the insider said, Katie doesn't regret going to space.
It was life changing. What she does regret is making
a public spectacle out of it.
Speaker 2 (48:30):
M maybe maybe they need to take a book, a
page out of like the peat hagscept book. Just don't
change course, Katie Perrot.
Speaker 3 (48:40):
Just you did the thing. Stand by it.
Speaker 2 (48:42):
Don't admit you've done anything wrong.
Speaker 3 (48:44):
Just be proud of what you did.
Speaker 2 (48:46):
Just just makes it look weird, man. Yeah, the tour
would y'all.
Speaker 3 (48:51):
I love free stuff. I would lie. I would go
live on TikTok and see if I see even goes
up that far.
Speaker 1 (49:01):
I don't know, I mean up up air. Maybe I
want to say I have no desire to do that.
Speaker 3 (49:07):
I want to I mean, I want to go to
outer space just generally as a sensation, but like if
I have to do that and be one of like
Jeff Bezos's like, uh little puppets on the ship.
Speaker 1 (49:19):
I don't know about that.
Speaker 3 (49:20):
So you do a SpaceX fight, then yeah yeah, SpaceX
definite more for me.
Speaker 1 (49:24):
Yeah yeah, yeah, that one goes for the opportunity to
shake hands with Jeff Bezos.
Speaker 3 (49:31):
No, that was I was like, always one of the
highest thoughts I had in college was like, do you
remember that guy Felix Bombgartner like jumped out of that
hot air balloon from outer space?
Speaker 1 (49:40):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (49:42):
That to me, I was like, dude, I want to
get so high and do that, like just purely, both
literally and literally in both ways. Just just burn up,
go up in that hot air balloon and be like
I'm about to feel infinity all. That was the thing
I'd always say.
Speaker 1 (49:58):
In college, like, dude, just feel all around you.
Speaker 3 (50:02):
That ship must be crazy. Yeah, that was my thing.
Speaker 2 (50:05):
So they need to take the six women that did
the space fight and just hot box in a car
and let's watch the same. Just get them as high
as possible. I want to see Gail King high. I
think she could go to space.
Speaker 3 (50:16):
Yeah, that way, she'd probably say some really interesting stuff,
I'd imagine.
Speaker 1 (50:20):
All Right, I do just want to talk about the
weekend box office. Ryan Coogler's Sinners beat a Minecraft Movie
dethroned a Minecraft movie and became the number one movie
at the box office. It made forty five point six
million domestically sixty one million worldwide, beating expectations. It's the
(50:41):
best opening for an original film since pre pandemic times.
Speaker 3 (50:46):
Wait, so, which one was?
Speaker 1 (50:47):
Oh? Us?
Speaker 3 (50:49):
So? Us was the last movie? Which was the original
pre paet hunk? Okay, so another black hell interesting film
that just it blew away expectations over perform warming people
would say to be slightly pageorge. It's actually overperforming.
Speaker 1 (51:04):
Expectations are always low on these That's so weird when
it's a black filmmaker about these filmmakers that they haven't come.
Is Ryan Coogler black?
Speaker 3 (51:13):
I believe?
Speaker 1 (51:14):
Yeah? Oh nah, I couldn't be. I know a couple
of guys named Ryan who aren't so of the Ryans.
Speaker 3 (51:21):
I know my homies Ryan all white.
Speaker 1 (51:23):
Guys, all white dude. But yeah, So there's a couple headlines.
There's a variety story and a New York Times story
that like on Sunday, so like the day that the
box office is being like reported. It immediately had the
backlash take of actually, this isn't that good. Oh so,
(51:47):
Variety said, Sinners has a mass sixty one million in
its global debut. It's a great result for an original,
R rated horror film.
Speaker 3 (51:54):
Yet the Warner.
Speaker 1 (51:55):
Brothers release has a ninety million dollar price tag before
global marketing, so profitability remains a ways away.
Speaker 3 (52:03):
Sounds like if it does even a fraction of what
it did this first weekend, it's profitable.
Speaker 1 (52:08):
Yeah, it's a ways away though, like multiple days. You
know jet nover how we report on box office ever before.
But in this case, for some.
Speaker 3 (52:19):
Reason, Variety can't get fucked. They were the same people
that put out that dumb Rachel Zegler hit piece laying
like the failures of snow White on at her feet
and being like, I think it was because she's pro
Palestinian and the and then you know she had to
do her politics all out loud. That Galagha doc got
death threats, and you're like, what is the meaning of
this piece at all? Like this is nothing to do
(52:40):
with the movie.
Speaker 2 (52:40):
Who are they in the pockets of like the studios.
Speaker 3 (52:43):
Yeah, it's it's an and it's a trade. So like
they all have direct sort like lines to heads of
studios that are like, we need to you know, it's
like any media. Really.
Speaker 2 (52:53):
I saw somewhere that the director gets the rights to
this film back in twenty five years.
Speaker 1 (52:59):
Yeah, they don't.
Speaker 2 (53:00):
It's kind Yeah, I think studios want to take this
down or not exactly.
Speaker 3 (53:05):
It's not just a pure win.
Speaker 1 (53:06):
It's just like this this could be everyone's like also
spinning it as like a cautionary tale, like don't give
the black creator too much now, because it's interesting to
compare it to it once upon a time in Hollywood.
Because so. The New York Times also claimed Sinner's success
has a big asterisks, again arguing that profitability is far away,
(53:28):
and they also pointed out, Zach, what you were talking
about that Ryan Kugler gets to own the movie after
twenty five years. The New York Times said, despite not
paying for any of it, he gets to own it.
You know, he only wrote, directed and conceived of it.
Speaker 3 (53:50):
But mask off sentence even though he didn't, he's not
paying for it. Oh I'm sorry, mister will then own
it despite not paying for it. Wow, let me bow
and prostrate to the studio for exploiting my creativity.
Speaker 1 (54:06):
Like, what are you fucking talking about? I think? But yeah,
so just real quick to compare it to once upon
a time in Hollywood they had this same deal structure.
First of all, Tarantino like got ownership of that movie
after a number of years, So this is not as
unprecedent as people are making it seem. One made forty
five million on three thousand, three hundred screens after the pandemic,
(54:30):
and Tarantino made forty one million, so less on three
thousand and six hundred screens, so way more screens, which
means that they had higher expectations. And when that movie
came out, everyone was like, it's a certified box office
smash for Quentin Tarantino.
Speaker 3 (54:47):
Right, yeah, no, no it wasn't. I mean, I think
just the other stuff you see so many handing, so
much hand ringing, and like these other headlines.
Speaker 1 (54:55):
Like it could be the end of the studio system.
Speaker 3 (54:58):
M And I mean I think a lot of the
q aroun quote unquote profitability. I'm sure they have nothing
to do with the fact that, again Ryan Coogler in
negotiating this deal masterfully. He also secured a first dollar
gross deal, meaning he makes money the second tickets are sold.
He gets a taste of the box office the second
tickets starts selling, as opposed to then like waiting for
(55:20):
the studio to recoup costs, and then you get a
taste of those profits.
Speaker 1 (55:24):
Like it's they're like, oh god, this this black man
is getting too much. Now, this could be the end
of the studio system.
Speaker 3 (55:31):
Like that is just I feel like, so obviously what
all of this is about. But yeah, sure they could
be the end of the studio system. And who knows
if it could be profitable even though they're projecting it's
going to do three hundred million when everything's said and done.
Speaker 1 (55:45):
Yeah, but they, I mean, Hollywood's famous for managing expectations
and like lying about how much money a movie made
so that they can change how much money they're actually
sharing with the artists who again made the movie. But
they didn't even pay for it. Yeah, so I mean,
why why should they get it? We should we should
be worshiping the people, the capital, the people who put
(56:06):
the capital up. Not it's not these artists who didn't
even pay for it. It also just reminds me of
that Sony Leak. I bring this up so often, but
it's just such a revealing email exchange where a producer
was arguing that the studio shouldn't invest in Denzel Washington
because black actors don't perform well overseas. And this was
(56:32):
not in nineteen eighty seven. They were talking about a
sequel to The Equalizer, you know, after decades of Denzel
being one of like the most surefire movie stars. So
The Equalizer came out in twenty fourteen, was a massive hit,
and this person was like, I just don't see it. Guys. Look,
Denzel's my favorite actor. Okay, he's my favorite actor, my
(56:54):
favorite actor, but we don't want to invest in this
because you know, audiences abroad just aren't going to go
see his movies. By the way, the Equalizer too grossed
one hundred and ninety million dollars on a sixty million
dollar budget. But they just don't want to let black
artists have success because that would mean that like the
(57:18):
system that you know, gay makes it so that they
have their jobs is wrong.
Speaker 3 (57:26):
Yeah, you know, and it's it purely speaks to the
exploitative nature of it too, Like we already don't properly
compensate creators for things and to see something, especially like
if a white creator, it's one thing, but if a
black creator is doing it. Now we're talking about quote
like the like an existential crisis over the studio system. Yeah, okay, okay, okay,
(57:48):
well good luck with that. Good luck with that. I mean,
even like in La and stuff, it's like, if you
wanted to see Sinners like it was hard to catch,
like certain screenings of it. It's because people are going, like,
this is not some fucking flash in the pan thing.
And it's also as of right now, it's like his
highest rated film that he's put out. And yeah, reminder
(58:09):
of the studios.
Speaker 1 (58:11):
Let people tell fucking original stories. They fucking people like
new Ship not fucking snow White and all this other
nonsense over and over again.
Speaker 2 (58:22):
I mean, I just wish that Minecraft and Centers had
come out on the same day so we could have had.
Speaker 3 (58:29):
Miners.
Speaker 2 (58:30):
Miners, Yeah, that's Therbenheimer, so that everyone miners would be
saving the studio system.
Speaker 1 (58:40):
Actually, that sounds kind of hot, scrafter.
Speaker 3 (58:42):
Crafter, that sounds like the problematic like opt themal optometry place.
Speaker 2 (58:49):
You go to.
Speaker 3 (58:53):
Oh, you went down to sincrafters, did you? I can
tell from those transition lenses. Transition lenses, I don't I
think so you went to sing draft.
Speaker 1 (59:01):
Not on my watch, Zach Zerraman. What a pleasure of
having you on the daily Zeitgeist? Where can people find you?
Speaker 3 (59:07):

my special. And I'm on Instagram and TikTok, I'm at
zz double zz that's e z and then the word
double and then zz.
Speaker 1 (59:22):
What are the people?
Speaker 3 (59:23):
What can they expect from the special?
Speaker 2 (59:24):
Give us a little oh an hour of gut busting, laughs, poilarity,
some controversial statements.
Speaker 3 (59:32):
That's not true. It's pretty pretty easy.
Speaker 2 (59:35):
But I talk about I'd go on this little journey
figure out the definition of love because my conservative family
says they love me, but they go to the ballot
box and vote against my rights. I talk about romantic love,
self love and try to figure out like a good
definition for it, and I come up to one at
the end, but I don't want to spoil it's.
Speaker 1 (59:53):
A surprise, all right. Learned something about it was your father?
Is there a work of media that you've been enjoying
besides your own special.
Speaker 2 (01:00:05):
I am going through Black Mirror right now and just
like lapping up that new season. But the thing I
wanted to highlight James Acaster has a special called Heckler's Welcome,
and I just I saw it live two years ago
and I just screenshot a a clip and sent it
to a friend where he talks about being told before
a show that anxiety being anxious and excited or the same.
(01:00:29):
It's just whether you have a positive outlook or not.
And he's like, we all can agree that's a lie.
For sixteen years, I've been backstage. I mean like I
can't wait to get out there, like that's shaking. So
that I think that moment just I felt very seen
and so everyone should stream that special. That's good after
years in that Concurrently, there's actually hidden if you play
(01:00:54):

it's a video of the Pope just driving by in
an amazing pope all white Mercedes four by four, you know,
one of those cars that look like they're hunting Jason Bourne,
but it's all white. And then Noah Garfunkle tweeted, he
didn't surprise me because I stay fucking ready. That was
(01:02:17):

in the song in the in this video that's fucking
so good. It's by this group called Los Jungitos and
(01:03:19):

of has like sort of funky rumba disco e vibes.
It came out like in the late seventies and the
vocals like, if you like gypsy Kings will definitely like
this this vibe. But this is a track called Como
Yegua Brava by LUs.
