What's up, everybody.
Welcome to Flaygar.
We've been abandoned.
Let's just call it what it is.
Okay?
We got no Akash.
Hunger Games.
We got no fucking Mark is Al and I holding it down, Corona style.
Okay?
We're throwing it back to you.
Alex and Shifty seem to be under the impression that the K-pop demon hunters is an English-American-made movie
that just happens to be about a K-pop band and not a Korean-made movie.
movie. No, it's a
Korean made movie, but it's made in
English. No, no, they dub it in English.
No, it's made in English.
All the words of the fucking
animated shit are English words.
You don't think that that's originally
a Korean song.
No.
It won't slap to say.
Come on.
I have the answer, but I'm going to let you all
that don't slap to say.
Does that slap the same?
Man, man.
Ow.
Al, we don't have our Asian representative or our cock Asian representative here for you to be making these jokes, okay?
Al, you need to keep your racism.
You even got the beef and broccoli on.
Is that why you put that timbulin up in there.
I'm about to take chapsick to my people.
I take back what I said.
If that has the beef and broccoli on, he's allowed to do the accent.
There you go.
Okay?
I'm just trying to keep the wheels on the bus.
I'm trying to keep the wheels on the bus.
Miles, I'll move back in a frame.
Don't you worry?
Get some AC going on in here.
Yes, we need some AC.
Okay?
Mmm.
It is St. Patty's Day.
Yo, happy St. Patrick's Day.
Yes.
Thank you.
Shout out to the Irish.
I'm Irish.
No, you're not.
I am.
I'm a quarter Irish.
You just want to be something, bro.
Brother.
Are you Puerto Rican?
Yes.
But I'm real Puerto Rico.
How?
Because my mom was born there.
We don't know that.
There's no proof of that.
What proof do you have to you?
What proof?
Call your mom right now.
See if she was actually born in a hospital with no electricity.
There's no way that she was born.
There's no fucking way.
No, she was born in a bathtub.
That's how they do it.
Trump through him a fucking paper towel.
Al?
Cleaned up the blood.
Al, you're going to, it's going to be just one of us next.
It's going to be me, baby.
You know, you tuned into BET.
We're down to two.
We're down to two.
Is this a setup?
Like, I feel like I'm going to open this and it's going to expect.
No, no, no, no, that did get dropped, but it's, it's Guinness.
There's no bubbles in it.
Miles, you want to open this?
You fucked.
I think white people have, like, a better...
Can you...
Do beer better.
Listen, can we all just have a moment?
Can we have a moment right now to just acknowledge
it's hard out there for white boys with motion?
Can we just have a moment to acknowledge?
That's what you're going with?
Can we just acknowledge it?
Are you a white boy with motion?
It's also hard with Puerto Rican's opening a fucking channel.
I told you.
White people do it better.
Yeah.
Boy.
Whoa.
That made me feel uncomfortable.
God damn.
That really made me feel uncomfortable.
Are we being silly or not?
Don't do that.
I'll just, the Tourette's guy.
That's what the guy said at the Baptist.
There we go.
Got it.
Good.
There is.
Strong hands, baby.
Yeah.
All right.
Okay.
So, yeah, do you think it's, I mean, Jack Harlow and Timney going through it right now?
Tell me how hard it is for white boys.
I need you to lean back here right.
I know.
Let me just pull.
Oh, my bad.
Yeah, we can just go to that wide right here.
The wide is really not even that wide today.
No, it's not.
You know?
You really just need one camera for this.
Yeah.
Okay.
We're doing a weekend update.
That's what Al and I are doing.
Okay.
It's, no, listen, I'm not here to complain about the journey of the white male.
Nice.
Al
There's nobody else for me to talk to
I need you paying attention
The whole lot
No this is gonna be uncomfortable
I gotta like lock eyes with you
This is like a date right now
Move over a little bit
I am a little close
Yeah right
Like what the fuck is this?
I am occupying space
Yeah
Yeah yeah I am
I don't care
What the fuck is this the West Bank
Or something get out of here
Damn Al
Do we have to get political
Immediately
What's your favorite
in the West Main?
Um,
don't know it.
You're going to put your Ukraine flag back home, bro.
I stand with the people.
I stand with what the internet says.
That's what we do.
Cheers, cheers, cheers, cheers, my boy, cheers, cheers, cheers.
Okay, free everyone.
Except white boys with motion.
All right, tell me about this.
You have no take on this?
as a black dude?
I mean...
Did you listen to...
First of all, did you listen to Jack's album?
No.
Okay, so that makes both of us.
So we're going to give you strong opinions on this.
We heard like 15 seconds of it
in the elevator with Dove.
And that didn't sound too great.
But that's not fair. You would never judge a
JZ album on 15 seconds. You'd never judge
anybody's album on 15 seconds. But he's not singing.
So R&B is singing.
And he was just like doing the little whisper
talking stuff. So it was like, that
already is like, oh, if the whole album's like that,
don't call it an R&B album.
So you want to see vocals for an R&B album?
Is there anybody that doesn't have vocals, but they're just so
musically inclined, you're like, fine, you get to do it.
Kanye 808th and Heartbreak.
But he used autotune to make him shit.
To make up for the fact that he couldn't sing.
Yeah.
Okay. Okay.
So if he just said this is an alternative album,
got it.
You know that there's no way that he's, no matter what he said,
he was going to get cooked for this.
I think no.
I don't think so.
If he just said that, yo, I'm making an alternative album.
Now it's not a black.
Oh, so you think the criticism comes from the fact that it doesn't sound like R&B,
but he called it that?
When did he ever say it was an R&B album?
I'm pretty sure that's the whole rollout that he's putting out an R&B album.
I don't know.
Do you want to play this clip?
Play this clip.
I'm saying you didn't retreat into a whiter genre.
In fact, you arguably went deeper into black music.
I got black music.
Deeper into the loss.
Pause, pause.
Is that?
That's where.
that's what most people have seen from the clip.
Okay, that's what most people have seen from the interview
and all the opinions about this rollout come from that one right here.
There's an extended version of the conversation
where the two interviewers,
they're basically being politically correct
and they're like being white guys about asking him this question,
which is like, yo, you see a lot of white artists,
they retreat to white music once they get on.
You didn't do that.
And they basically want to say you got black,
and they want to say that.
but they're not saying it.
So he says it.
And then he goes on and you can play more of the clip.
Was that conscious?
Was that a little twist on the typical move that white rappers make,
which is to retreat back into traditionally white sounds?
It certainly made what I already wanted to do even more appealing.
Absolutely.
Because you like pushing that boundary, that line?
I think I love black music.
I love the sound of black music.
Paul, that's such a funny moment because he's like,
because you like pushing the boundary.
He's like, nah, bro, I just like black music.
And then the interviews of me, he's like, yeah, yeah, me too.
Yeah, I know, yeah.
I think that this is handled perfectly.
Like, he's saying, hey, I love this music.
This is what I wanted to make.
This is what's inspiring me.
He says, I got blacker because that's what the interview is trying to say.
He's saying it almost sarcastically.
But he shouldn't have.
Let the, either, let the fucking interviewer say it.
He's not going to say it.
You don't need to date that.
Yeah.
Everybody stop podcast.
bro. Everybody got to stop podcasts.
I know I just got a podcast studio.
Turn it off. Everybody got to stop podcasts.
Because there's nothing you could do.
No, just white people need to stop podcasts, apparently.
It's not just white people.
Who's black getting in trouble?
Jack Harlow just got in trouble off a podcast, bro.
He's blacker than ever, dude.
Come on, hell.
All right.
No, this is interesting.
Is it just black people getting in trouble podcasts?
Nah.
You got Jack, you got Chalamey.
Black guys get on, say, wild shit in podcasts, them shit's blow up.
You got Shannon, you know, Shannon, Shannon's shot pot.
Shannon, like, everybody goes on Shannon and gets this some shit.
But that, but it's like, blows up in a good way.
Kat Williams goes over there.
It's the biggest podcast ever.
His tour is selling out ever.
Like, it's a good thing for them.
Interesting.
So you think it's just white people get in trouble?
Yeah, y'all crap and a bower ass niggas, man.
Oh, okay.
That's it.
Is it white people tearing down white bribal?
Yes, because you're...
Not with Jack Harlow.
You're bar.
Your barrel is getting smaller because minorities are growing.
But the Jack Hall response is not from white people.
It's a little bit of both.
But black people, because he said, I'm getting blacker.
Like, I don't like the sound of that.
That was a little cringy.
I get what he's saying.
And if you watch the whole clip, I agree with everything he's saying.
But if you stop it at right there, it's like, oh, yeah, I'm getting blacker.
And it's like, we have a history of all this fucking, what's it called?
the who's the guy
the culture vultures
like we've had a history of that so it's like
it looks that way
yeah but you can't look at him and be like oh
he's being sarcastic
I don't think he's being sarcastic
he's using language
that's sarcastic yes
yes if you watch the full clip
if you just stop it at
yeah I'm getting blacker but R&B isn't any
blacker than rap like they're both black
music forms you're not more black if you
do R&B than rap
I would say R&B is blacker.
Oh, Jesus.
R&B is blacker.
I need someone else on the podcast.
It's rhythm and blues.
Y'all don't got rhythm or blues.
We got blues.
Blues brothers.
But you don't have rhythm.
And blues is a black art.
You do have rhythm.
White people invented dancing.
Bro, you invented like skipping and shit like that.
Like, yeah, dances are one, two, three, four.
Rhythm is just like, hey, we feel.
Can you show me? Can you show me some rhythm how you feel it?
Nah, I've been hanging around too many whites, man.
But I'm looking at it.
I think Jack Harlow might have more rhythm to be right now.
Feel that for a second.
But I get why the internet's upset they shouldn't be if you watch the full clip.
Because he got put in a position and he said the thing you're supposed to say.
He's like, hey, I like the music.
And so I'm just leaning into the music that I like.
But at the same time, you know it's a little bit easier for white.
white people to switch genres than it is for black people.
Easier in terms of.
So a white guy like him, Post, can go to white music country,
and no one's giving them shit for going to country.
I think white people can go from black to white.
Very easy.
Yes.
It's like a welcome home.
Right?
But can a traditional, like, rock musician drop a rap album?
No.
That's hard.
Okay.
Do we have any examples of a black artist that started in a white genre and then went to hip-up?
Oh.
Oh, wait a minute.
That's what this would be.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
But there is...
Oh, no, that's a totally different one.
Hootie and the Blowfish, was that the guy?
Yeah. Wagon wheel?
Yeah, so he started out...
But he started out doing what?
What was that like...
I think he started at Hooty.
Yeah, he started with Hooty, but what type of music was it?
It was just like pop music.
And then he went to like country.
Yeah, and then cut into country.
Yeah.
But I guess he didn't get any.
Maybe he did get some shit.
Maybe we're just not fucking aware of it because we don't know what the hell is happening in country music.
My point is it like this is like, I think this is perfect example of just like the internet is one big outrage machine right now.
It's like the only thing that gets clicks and the only thing that gets views.
It's like reaction outrage.
Reaction, outrage.
And they got to find things to be outraged by because maybe they're exhausted being outraged by real shit.
Like there's war going on.
And they're like, all right, we got all that outrage out.
What can I be outraged about that doesn't really matter?
Like, Timmy Chalamee talking about, like, ballet or opera,
doesn't fucking really matter.
Yeah, it doesn't.
Like, nobody really, like, I grew up in a dance family.
Let me tell you, like, I grew up in a dance family.
Gay?
Yeah, yes.
So did he, though.
I did, and he did, and he knows it.
Like, my wife came to New York to be a ballerina.
Like, the ballet is completely supported by donors.
Like, the tickets you do go to see the Knuff Cracker doesn't pay for that.
Oh, shit.
Is that why you liked your wife?
Because she reminded you of your mother.
My mom was a ballerina.
I thought she did all dancing.
Ballet was part of it.
No, no, no.
My mom was a three-time U.S. ball and dance champion.
I put some respect on her name.
Oh, so your wife didn't live up to what your mom did in the game?
She didn't become a three-time U.S. ballroom dance champion.
Damn, you want to show your wife like that?
I mean, I'm just saying, she didn't achieve that.
See, I'm doing like the New York Times guys do it to you right now.
There's no way you can answer this.
The way they would ask you, they'd be like, so how do you feel about what your wife is accomplished?
And I'd be like, I think she did a great job.
Yeah, of course she did a great job.
That would be that line of life questioning.
But I'm very proud of all my wife's achievements.
I don't compare her to my mom at all.
Thank God.
I know you don't compare your wife to your mom because you're with a white woman.
I'm with a Spanish woman.
I speak Spanish and my mom speak Spanish.
So you know what?
Alex Harlow, you create a lot.
You created an R&B album in her belly one day.
You know what I mean?
How dare you criticize Jack Harlow when you try to create more whites?
You're doing everything in your power to make more white people.
I'm trying to make more blacks.
Listen, no, no, no, he's trying to get blacker.
You not.
No.
Hey, hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah, yeah.
Hey, Jack Harlow is trying to get blacker.
We don't call Barack the first white president.
You out here.
We call him the first black.
You out here.
St. Patty's Day, you cracker ass.
The first thing you said, you didn't celebrate
Black History Month now one day last month, Al.
I did it a little bit.
What did you do?
It went to Spain with your white wife.
Spanish.
Spanish, wife.
Let's get that straight.
She's a Spanish way.
She's a beautiful, beautiful, lovely lady.
Beautiful, lovely lady.
White is good.
Spanish.
Definitely from Northern Europe and migrating to Spain
to help kick out the Browns.
See, her family was probably one of the people that kicked the moors out.
No, no, no.
When Doves' great-grandma and grandpa came over to take over Spain, it was your wife's family.
No.
That was like, get these fucking, I'm not going to say the word they would say.
She embraced them because her dad's a biologist and they let all.
Yo.
Ow, we're trying to do a podcast.
I didn't realize that Mark and Akash kept you at bay.
Oh, yeah.
Holy mary.
You're just, you're just.
I go all.
You're a bad guy.
No, I love.
God knows my heart.
I hope the internet does too.
Oh, the internet does too.
Damn, you just called Dove and his family.
Did we bleep what he said?
Yes, we did.
Wow.
I called them great people.
That's what I did.
We had to bleep.
That was complimented.
No, no.
You bleeped it?
No, but you believed it.
And now they're running with it.
So they're thinking you meant something that you didn't say.
Oh, fuck.
Yeah, it's way worse.
You might as well just keep the thing you said.
damn it so i really have to admit more as a great human beings damn it that sucks keep it in
we got we got to work on alice i know i know i know i'm not good i'm not good i'm not good i'm not good
i was like what these guys at 35 is learning what sarcasm is even as his own like uh tone and affect
to it this is good i'm trying guys all right listen this is all i got to say is if there's one thing
I hope that Jack can appreciate is it's some of the names that they gave him were hilarious.
He seems like a funny kid.
I hope naturally you put out an album.
You work really hard on it.
People judge it.
And it's going to hurt.
But calling him January 6th in Park is a disingenuine is funny.
No, De La Stoll is funny.
I most definitely not admit.
IRS 1 is fantastic.
Yeah, that's great.
That's great.
Charlie Kirk Franklin.
No.
No.
So Charlie Kirk Franklin is insane.
Hold on.
Yakou Kuali.
Hold on.
These are cooking right now.
Oh, wow.
No, that's fucked up.
They just called him straight up Daniel Caesar.
That's mean to our friend, friend of the show, Daniel Caesar.
We love Daniel Caesar.
musician. That's disrespectful.
Okay? Music Rothschild might be
my favorite. That's good. That's good.
It sucks to all this shit he's getting, too.
Because I like Jack. He's a funny guy. Good personality.
I like him.
Proud Boys to Men is
guys. All right, stop it. Just stop it.
Just stop it right now. Okay, so
unfair, unfair with Jack's going through.
Would you rather that the album just be judged
off the merits of the album and nothing to do with what he said
in the interview?
Yes, but then I don't think.
as many people will tune into it.
So is there a version where like all the controversy
gets people to go listen and then he is going to
find the people that are into what he created? I think so.
I think this, if the
album's good over the long run, this helps it.
Okay, boom. Because like, I probably
wouldn't have tuned in and now I probably will
give it a listen just to see if it's like it. Because you talk so much
shit. Yeah. I got a...
Actually, I don't get a fuck. I'll keep talking shit,
but still... Nah, that's fucking insane
that one.
Yo, Jude!
Oh, these are awesome.
Yeah, the internet is fucking great.
Can we watch, because they just drop the new trailer for Dune?
We probably can't watch it, right?
When we get clipped if we watch it?
Why?
We're reviewing.
I mean, we're not over it and like pausing and stuff.
That's where we get caught as we just play it through.
Oh, we play it straight through.
All right, fair enough.
All right, so pause at every moment and you say a word.
Salome!
Take the beer from Al.
No, I'm not even cooking yet.
No, you're cooked.
What we need is a shallamee.
Okay, because they just dropped Doom part three.
Were you a fan?
Do you like to do himself?
I love.
Okay, you're into Doom.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
How do you think of him as an actor in Dunn?
Great.
Phenomenal.
He's nice.
I think he's a good actor.
This is the revision of his three shit I don't like.
You said he's phenomenal actor.
I think he's phenomenal.
He's not phenomenal.
He's good.
Can you just give me baseline for phenomenal?
Is Leo your baseline for phenomenal?
Yeah, he's up there.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
And he's not Leo.
Yet?
Yeah.
Is he Leo at 27?
Hmm.
How old was Leo when he's?
He was when he was Gilmood Great.
I can tell you.
That was wild.
You didn't have to do that to say it.
He did the name of a character.
That was wild.
And I'm the bad one.
I'm not saying that you're bad, but like if I'm impersonated,
like if you do Forrest Gump, how do you do his voice?
Do you go, I like chocolate?
No, right?
He was 19.
Say what?
He was 19 and we did.
Oh, geez, no Leo.
Come on, son.
Come on.
This is just, it's become trendy to hate on him, shit.
When did you notice it?
You just, you just compared him to Leo, and then you asked the age, and now that Leo was 19 acting better than Chalamee, there you go.
We never seen Chalemay act mentally deficient.
We saw Marty Supreme?
No, Marty Supreme, I didn't see it.
But, uh, but Marty Supreme, he was his actor.
What do you mean, my guy?
I'm just being objective here.
Whoa.
I think he's a good actor.
I think he's really good actor.
Phenomenal, actually.
No.
Not phenomenal.
You're lying.
You're capping.
And that's why we hate on it.
Because you're capping.
I think he's phenomenal.
All right, cap.
Keep going.
Cap, though.
That's bullshit.
You think he's the same level as Leo?
Same level as Denzel?
No, I don't think he's the same level as Leo.
I think, like, Leo Denzel are in a different...
It's phenomenal.
Yeah, Leo, but Denzel.
Okay, fine.
There's another level beyond it.
All right.
But I don't think that Michael B. Jordan is in a different level than...
Oh, I don't put...
Yeah.
I think they're the same level.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I actually think...
I know we're talking about this on idiots,
But, like, I think that the Oscars,
they did the right thing just giving it to the youth.
Because, like, you have to pump up the next generation
of superstars in cinema, right?
You don't have the luxury of just giving Oscars to the actors
that are absolutely phenomenal.
Like, even if Leo did a better job in acting than both of them,
it's kind of like in the best interest for the movie industry
to crown Michael B or Timmy as the superstars.
And they low-key kind of did it.
Like, who won the Golden Globe?
I think it was a different, maybe it was Mora or something like that, Wondermore or something?
Yep, Wagner Moore.
Wagner won it, right?
And then...
That's a person or a movie?
No, that's a person.
He's the guy who is Narcos, right?
Wasn't that the first one where you saw him?
He's in a movie called The Secret Agent.
And yes, he's from Narcos.
That's where we first saw him in Narcos.
Anyway, then you got Timmy, and then you have...
Timmy getting the BAFTA, right?
Do any of us care about movies?
No.
The Basta is the only thing we know about it was the Tourette's guy.
Yeah.
That's the only show.
He won that.
Yeah.
Tourette's won the Baptist.
Who won Best Actor?
Robert Aramio.
Oh, interesting.
I remember Timmy winning something.
Timmy just had a losing year, bro.
I'm looking.
He didn't want that whole movie didn't win an Oscar.
No, but I remember him winning some award.
Maybe it was gold as people's choice or like what?
Oh, yeah.
Give him the one that don't count.
Why doesn't that one count?
People's choice.
Aren't you a man of the people?
You fucking industry hack.
What fucking Netflix deal or Warner Bros. deal did they give WTF?
Put you the shit all over.
Is it coming?
Yeah, you know.
He won Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy for the Golden Globe.
Oh, okay.
So.
Okay, so fair enough.
So he did win Golden Globe.
Yeah, Best Actor for musical and Comedy.
Okay.
So basically my point is that they're starting to crown the next generation of superstars.
So I don't even know if it, and I think that's part of like what this, these award things are about, right?
It's not like, okay, on, I don't want to be, I don't want to take away anybody's merits.
But like, the industry has to be thinking, okay, we need to stay alive.
We need to message to people out there in the world who the next crop of superstars are.
So when we put $300 million into a movie, like Dune, everybody goes out and sees it because this is the guy.
Got it.
Like Michael B.
I didn't think they were looking at it that way.
I thought they're like, hey, let's get views up.
Everybody loves a race war.
And just like prize fighting, like you make white guy versus black guy, people tune it.
Yeah, that's interesting.
I thought that's what they made this out to be.
Oh, that's interesting.
Yeah, maybe.
I don't know.
Did you feel like race was a huge component going into this?
I didn't think it was that.
With the BAFTA situation?
Yeah.
I mean, if it was Timmy who yelled it.
How do we know?
Yeah, no.
What fucking insult.
Timmy sat next to him and then he was like,
no, I was like, oh, it's a guy.
Your dad would die, you're probably.
Yeah, so it's like, I don't know.
I just feel like, I feel like kind of the,
in a weird way, the industry got what it wanted.
You know, like Michael B is a legit star, superstar.
He's going to be the head of massive movies
for the next fucking five, ten years.
And then Timmy is a huge superstar on his own.
Up and coming, sure, but he'll,
probably never do a podcast again.
What's interesting about this
is that like this rollout that he had
for a Marty Supreme
was the what I think most people
are like this is phenomenal.
You got awareness out for this movie.
Okay.
For the most part, at least the first few months of it.
It was like he's white boy a month.
He's the coolest motherfucker.
He knows everything.
At a certain point I felt it was a little too much.
So that's the thing.
For me it was the Charlemagne moment.
When Charlemagne was hating on him
on Brilliant Idiots, like he was joking around
but it was about like the Kendrick thing
and I was like, oh wow.
this is the first moment I've noticed, like, what some people call over exposure.
Does he get compensated for going on doing promo?
It's part of the contract.
Okay.
Yeah.
So it's like, but he put the movie on his back.
And the industry was basically looking at this movie going, if this movie doesn't do well,
like if it doesn't crack like, you know, 60 million or 80 million or something like that,
then like we don't know if we can make movies that are about like obscure stories and no existing IP that nobody knows about.
That was the talk.
And then it did 150, whatever it is, and they were like, okay, we're still alive.
So there was this big side of relief in the industry.
But weren't they talking about the Leo movie the same way?
They were like, hey, movies are done because this movie didn't do shit.
And this Leo is supposed to have done stuff.
I think they put Leo in a different category as Timmy.
So they're basically going like, yeah, Leo should make a movie crack.
And when it didn't, they were terrified.
And then Timmy comes in with this movie that's maybe even more obscure.
So that was either going to confirm it or.
or give them some hope.
Now seeing the backlash from like this opera ballet comment,
I wonder if execs are one going to let him promote doing like this.
Oh.
And I wonder if they're going to let any of their big stars promote anything in this way.
Do you feel that the ballet comment even hurt the movie?
No, I don't think it hurt the movie.
But I think that they're looking at like brand and they're looking protecting the brand.
like a star as a brand.
Gotcha.
And it's like to what we were talking about on,
on brilliant,
it's like an actor,
when we were growing up,
you really knew nothing about actors.
Like,
I don't know anything about Michael B. Jordan,
and that's a good thing.
I don't know anything about Tom Hanks,
right?
Like, we don't know anything about these people.
I don't know what type of food they like.
I don't know if they speak other languages.
I don't know where they vacation.
I really know nothing about these people.
And then they can become a character,
and then they kind of are that character to us.
Like Tom Hanks is a little bit of force gum to me.
Oh, yeah.
You know, like he, and he gets,
to live up to that. He gets to become that. The more
we know a character as a person,
when we see him not live up to that, one, it's trickier,
right? And then, one, it's tricker, and then it's almost like seeing
an athlete in a movie that's not playing themselves.
Yeah. Do you know what I mean? Or like seeing Ed Sheeran
in Game of Thrones. You're like, ah, I love Ed. He's the best of the world. But
like, in that moment, I was like, oh, we're watching a show, and I'm not just kind of like
a voyeur in this. It took me out of the world.
Yes. Yes. So,
I wonder if, like, sharing so much of self,
like we live in this fucking share culture
where everybody knows everything about everyone.
And I wonder if the advantage of the actor,
the lifetime actors,
is us knowing nothing about them
so they could just seamlessly become these people.
Like, Denzel Washington, me, knows kung fu.
Do you know what I mean?
Like, Keanu Reeves is a master of martial arts.
He might not be.
When did Denzel do kung fu?
Just in every movie where he can tell.
take away your gun or something like that.
Oh, okay.
Like, to me, I'm like,
I think he could fuck somebody up.
Like, I kind of believe it.
You know, so it's, I wonder if,
I wonder if the industry starts to go, okay,
sharing your opinions with the world,
it might be good for like a promotional pop initially,
but the cost is every opinion you share
is going to potentially rub somebody the wrong way
who has a different opinion.
But then at the same time,
I feel a little sorry for the actor.
Not sorry, but it's like,
I understand them wanting to,
to get their personality out there
because like me, for example,
whatever actor,
whatever your biggest role is,
I just call you that.
So it's like,
like, Keano's forever just Neo to me.
You know?
So it's like,
imagine having to be a famous actor
and then people are just like
calling you the character name
when you pass by.
That shit would be,
that would piss me off.
This is the great advantage
that like stand-up comedians have.
Like, if you like us for our comedy,
that's who we are.
Yeah, yeah.
Especially if you're not like playing a character.
So it's like if you like me for the things I say,
I feel really validated when you go, hey, I love your stuff.
And I wonder sometimes with actors, when somebody loves them,
I wonder if in their head they're going,
you don't know anything about me.
You love, you love Neo from The Matrix.
Like, you don't love me.
You love this character that this other person wrote.
And I wonder if there's that little gap there.
And some of them don't have an ego.
Like, I don't think Keanu has any fucking ego at all.
It's like one of the most likable things about him.
But I wonder if some of them are like annoyed.
They're like, I got an entertainment because I want, you know,
a validation from people and I want people to love me.
And they don't actually love me.
Yeah.
They love these things.
I got to be a little annoying.
But then you can just look at your bank account and your lifestyle and be like,
you know what I'll deal with it.
Some of them, yeah.
And I wonder if others are like, no, I got to, I want to write my own thing.
So you know, so I'm getting the validation for what I've created.
So now I have to ask you because now you're going the opposite.
direction. You're going from
podcasting comedy where
everybody knows you. Yeah. And now you're
transitioning into Hollywood.
So it's like,
the veil's already down.
So it's like, is that going to hurt you?
Of course. Are you going to stop
maybe showing yourself?
Like, do you have to restrict yourself?
I, like, there's certain things that I probably, like, I don't really
share much of my family. Like, if I am
talking about my family, like the whole fucking last
special. Yeah. It's like,
it's in a version I feel like,
safe. Like, I didn't feel comfortable
telling a joke about Shiloh
until Lincoln.
Oh, wow. I was so, it was so hard
for us to get pregnant. I was so superstitious. I was like,
God forbid I tell a joke, and this is
silly to think, but like in my head, I'm like,
is God going to smite me? Like, I'm saying
one joke about this baby that we shouldn't
have even had. God, I've got a sense of humor, bro.
I know. It's stupid. It's completely
irrational thinking. I am aware
of it, but I was so superstitious, you know?
And, but I
do think that, like,
I think the roles, for example, that I've been offered and been able to do are roles that are not that dissimilar from who I am.
Oh, okay.
Right?
Like, nobody's really asked me to act yet.
Gotcha.
But do you want to?
Do you want to get the role that forces you to Daniel Day Lewis yourself?
No, I don't want to, I don't need to be my left foot.
No.
No.
Like, I would like to, like, for me, what's exciting is like, you know, obviously learning acting, learning how to be on set, learning how to tell stories.
and learning what is good and what to avoid
and getting more comfortable with it,
but also I would like to write
or be part of writing and creating something.
And then, like, if that creation is supported,
I'll feel validated by that.
Gotcha.
Oh, okay, okay, okay.
But I think just, like, being a character that's nothing...
The podcast is safe, Gus.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But, like, being a character
that is nothing like me, you know,
it's, I don't know,
maybe there'd be something nice to, like, you know,
exist outside of yourself a bit.
But yeah,
I wonder if you get jealous of your creation.
I wonder if that happens to people.
Yeah. I can't see it not happening.
That would piss me off.
Yeah.
Like, what if you had,
what if the thing you were most known for
in the entire world?
Was this something that would, like,
I wonder this with like Steve Urkel.
Oh, yeah.
Are you trapped by it?
Like, you just called them.
He just called him Steve Urkel.
Yeah.
No, like.
I don't even know.
And the dude is...
Jalil is not like Steve Erkel at all.
Yeah.
Like, Jalil is like a cool, swaggy dude.
He played that character because he's a really fucking strong actor that could do it.
But is there a version where he's like, I need to show I'm not that?
I need to demonstrate that that's not who I am.
Because that's who the world will see you as.
That's what the kid stars do.
Like Disney actors go through like their Disney stage and then they'll do something that's like overtly sort of sexualized
or something that breaks them out of like the kid version of who they were.
Yeah.
That happens a lot with like children actors.
That's why I think sometimes actors do like a movie where they're ugly.
Oh yeah, for sure.
This is Jacob Allorty and Frankenstein.
He's got a proofy's not just six three and hot.
When Sidney Sweeney was in the movie where she was the female boxer.
Oh, uh, Chrissy.
Yeah, yeah, Chrissy.
And it's like, it's like, okay, I'm known for being this beautiful human being.
Yeah.
And a great actor.
But maybe there's just part of your head where you're like,
am I just known for being hot?
I got to play some ugly shit
to show that my acting
can carry. And then when it
backfires, you're like, I gotta be a hot shit
I'm the handmade.
That shit backfired. So nobody
watched that shit and then she follows it up
where, hey, I'm the hot girl
that the husband cheats on me with and
boom, that movie goes bach. You know what's crazy?
That movie did 400 million, right?
That movie did 400 million.
And it's women that supported it.
Yeah, because they host too.
women like beautiful women were tense
no but like the idea
I think for a lot of people was like
oh yeah put her in like a skinny little outfit
and like show it off and then guys are going to show up
no that's a book women read
really if women read one of those books
it's out of here oh but they like that
smut book shit if son if I
if I was a movie studio I got it to it for a little bit
I was like oh dude what you read
oh fuck one of the ones
fourth wing yeah I was in
I was in I was in
You know that's going to be a movie
that's a billion dollar franchise.
Oh, absolutely.
I'm tuning.
I'm buying early.
So what is the premise?
Because my wife was reading it,
she started to talk to me about it.
Yeah.
And it was like there's dragons in it and whatever.
Yeah, like dragons fairies.
You're not going to make fun of me
for watching sci-fi ever again.
You know what I mean?
If you watch it, if you're watching Girl Game of Thrones,
like, yeah.
So what's the premise of it?
I honestly, Miles, you could probably do a better job than me because...
I don't know, fourth wing.
I never read fourth wing.
It was so...
I don't read that gay shit, bro.
I'm about nerds up.
He's like, I don't read the gay shit.
I just hang out with the gay shit.
Fourth wing by Rebecca Yaros
is the first book in the Empirian series,
a popular fantasy romance novel
about Violet Soren Gale,
who was forced to join a brutal war college
for dragon riders,
despite her fragile body facing deadly challenges
and ruthless wing leader,
Zayden Riorsen, who is also her enemy.
The book is known for its romantasy,
Oh, that's what they're calling smut.
Oh, wow.
And so, yeah, the dragons are supposed to choose you,
and then apparently she's just some weakling,
but she's special and somehow two dragons end up choosing her,
so she's the only girl who got two dragons,
and then she's...
Miles, this is feeling Game of Thronesy, Miles.
I might check it out.
I might have to see what's going on it.
It's good.
It's a lot of smut shit.
Anyway, if I was a studio,
I'm buying up every novel that women read,
and I'm buying up every video game.
You probably can't even afford them now, but I'm buying every video game.
Well, this is like that post-Hary Potter thing.
Tell me.
Harry Potter comes out.
It's a sensation.
Crazy sensation.
And then they do every book after that has like a young, like teen who's like going through the world and has something similar to that.
You had Aragon, you had the catnus one where hunger games.
Oh, hunger games.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, even all the way to the vampire one where the guy sparkles.
Twilight?
Twilight.
Oh, yeah.
Like that's all post-Hare games.
Derivative of Harry Potter.
They're all picking up, trying to make their next one.
My wife told me that there was a line at Barnes & Noble when the new Harry Potter would drop.
I used to wait in those at midnight.
Like that's how popping.
That's great.
Think about this.
That's how popping a book with.
Can you remember a line at Barnes & Noble?
No.
The only lines I saw were a sneaker drops.
It was sneaker drops.
It would be like, remember sometimes a movie would come out on Thursdays.
Yeah.
Like a big.
And then I would remain, it would be late.
It would be like midnight Thursday.
You would see a movie theater crazy.
I haven't seen a line at a movie theater in a minute.
That's another thing.
Yeah.
Like remember on 14th Street, there was like a union square.
Do you ever go to that?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And there'd be like a line down a block.
Yeah.
And then back now I'm aging myself, but a new CD would drop.
Oh, hell.
Yeah.
Like, would wait for.
Tower records.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because there was only a few spots to get them.
So.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm trying to think.
That is the one issue with the consumption, not one issue, but that's the issue with consumption online.
Like watching things streaming, it's not only, it's, I don't even care being in the movie theater watch something with somebody else.
But in the same way that like when you go to a theme park, the line waiting to get on to the ride, there's like some like the energy and excitement in that line.
That's kind of what I felt a little bit like going to a movie.
Yeah.
You know, especially a big drop.
You know, like everybody.
It doesn't seem like you go to movies anymore.
No, bro. I mean, I think the last one I saw was Wicked One.
Wow.
Was there another one since?
Wow. Yeah, the Wicked 2 came out.
I didn't see that one, I don't think.
I still go to movies. I like movies.
What was the last one you saw?
Oh, I saw Marty Supreme in theaters.
I think there was something else I saw recently.
Oh, I saw Wicked 2.
Yeah, I think those are the last two.
All right, guys, take a break for a second, because I got to tell you about Roe Nutrition.
Okay?
This right here, this liposomal NAD plus, do you know what those things aren't?
No.
Have you heard of peptides?
Have you heard of looking younger, feeling better, feeling stronger?
Have you heard of those things?
Alex has.
Alex is on the NAD.
Look at me.
What happened to you?
Bigger dick.
It will make your dick grow according to Alex, not according to Rowe.
According to Alex, it will make your dick grow.
One of the side effects.
That's one of the side effects.
But clear skin, you think clear.
It's nice.
stuff. Amazing. And for the flagrant people, you're going to get 20% off with the code flagrant.

every cell having a little engine inside of it, the mitochondria. NAD plus is the fuel that
that engine runs on. Okay. It's what helps power everything in your metabolism to self-fuel or repair,
to how well you think and recover
and in Alex's instances
or instance
a larger penis.
You need this.
I don't use my penis anymore.
I'm using it to look younger
and feel good and have more energy.
I'm just saying. And have a clearer brain.

show. Shopping for a car should be exciting. Not exhausting. But let's be honest. Sometimes it feels like a maze,
endless listings, second guessing the price, wondering if you're missing something. That's where
car gurus comes in. When I was looking for my last vehicle, I started browsing on car.
Gurus, and what struck me immediately was how easy it was to navigate. You can see deal ratings,
price history, and dealer reviews all in one place. No guesswork, no surprises, just clear information,
so you can shop with confidence. It's no wonder, Car Gurus is the number one rated car shopping

Are you going to see Dune?
Yeah.
I'm excited for Dune.
When does Dune come out, Joey?
November 18th.
What?
Oh, we got.
I got tickets to Project Helmira already.
Why are they putting a trailer now?
Oh, because...
I imagine they thought Timmy was going to win...
Oh, fuck.
Yeah, they had that shit ready to drop.
Oh, Timmy, you fucked it up, bro.
That's not Timmy.
You fucked it up, Timmy.
Yo, you dropped a bag, bro.
Here's a question.
If he never says anything about ballet or opera.
No.
Or can we put on our little conspiracy heads, okay?
Because the craziest conspiracy is obviously like, you know, some publicist or whatever
was trying to bury his name leading up to this campaign, right?
A publicist that obviously represented either Michael B or maybe one of the other people there, right?
That's the most crazy.
The Charlemaid there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He started that shit and ended up.
People are going to do that right now.
Like, as I'm talking, I feel like one of the New York Times journalists, I have to be
very delicate without it.
But like, he goes,
so here's the thing. I don't think anybody
I don't think anybody
is going, oh,
let's snip that and put that out
in the world and make Timmy look bad because I don't think
there's anybody at a publicist office
that could possibly think people
could give a fuck about ballet
or opera.
Like, definitely opera.
None of you all even know where an opera house is.
None of y'all can name a song in opera.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
So ballet may be a little bit more.
But there is a thing when something does gain traction, can you juice it?
I think gas it.
They just saw the moment.
Like, if you look how.
Who is they?
The producers of that interview.
They saw that moment how uncomfortable he was.
You think they released it?
Yeah.
And I don't even think with the intention of like, oh, let's harm him.
They're just like, oh, this is going to be a good clip.
Which interview are we talking about?
with McConaughey.
You see how uncomfortable
Shalman gets immediately.
He's like, oh, fuck,
I just, 14 cents,
I just lost on viewership.
And then now he's like,
then he tries to sing some opera
to try to like, you know,
get back in their good graces.
Like, he knows it's an uncomfortable moment.
And they're like, oh, this is a clip right here.
Who would not make that?
If they put out that clip themselves,
that's nasty one.
Yeah, it's a variety.
A variety.
They put the clip out.
That's nasty.
work. I didn't know they released
the clip themselves and they put out
the interview? Yes. Oh,
that's crazy. Yeah. Yeah, if I'm
a star of a movie. But I don't think they thought it
was going to go get this bet.
What they think it was going to do is going to win them the Oscar?
There's no way, right?
They're just like, yo, we need
these views. We need these clicks.
Oh, you already got McConaughey
and Timmy. They agreed to do
this. Neither of them are making any money.
Clicks, man. Come on.
y'all love to take my worst moment to make a fucking clear but is that yeah is that the internet
did we ever tell the people the uh the commercial we shot how you took my one line i fucked up
it's amazing like can you tell him yeah we have we have that you have the the cracking
commercial that we did for the holidays and uh what's the line you're supposed to say
i was like uh you want you want to play the fiddle you want to play the fiddle you want to play the fiddle
Yeah, you want me to play the fiddle boss, right?
Al says it right, like, five or six times.
Mad times.
And then one time, he goes, he goes, you want me to play the flute horn too?
And I was like, this is the funniest thing that Al could possibly say.
And I was shocked it made sense in the edit.
Yeah, no one called it up.
Nobody.
It looked like we wrote it.
Acting.
See?
I'm just saying, sometimes the star is right here.
I think the problem with the way that we act when we shoot sketches is like
not a single line that was written is what we said.
What you mean?
Like, I got a lot of respect for people who just like write a show.
And if you just say those lines, it's going to be funny and great.
Sorry.
Oh, shit.
Damn.
Oh, yeah, you got it?
All right, go.
You want me to play the flute horn?
The flute horn out?
I spent $40 on this gift, now.
I almost break it.
I almost break it.
I almost break it.
Right there and go.
Play it again.
Enjoy.
Ride a horse.
Pick some berries.
Oh, picking.
Like, what else do they do there?
Do you want me to play the flute horn?
The flute horn out?
I've got $3 million to this gift, now.
You know.
And then it gets such a big laugh in the room.
I was like, oh, fuck.
This is going to be the one.
This is going to be the one.
But that's how all great things are shot.
Like, if you, I think there's a famous scene where a guy breaks his leg in Hot Rod and he's
doing a jump and he lands it like a hundred times.
Then the final one, he falls, breaks his leg.
And they go, we're going to use one where he breaks his leg and falls.
And like all great, like the office or like 30 Rock, there's so many cut scenes where
they have to move the camera because someone's laughing.
It's so much better.
You know who has some bangers?
What's the guy's name, man?
I can't believe I'm forgetting his name.
The actor from the office.
he's also Gardens of the Galaxy
Oh Chris Pratt
Chris Pratt
He's in 30 Rock
Parks and Rec
No, no Parks and Rec, sorry
Not in the air
He's got the best ones
Bring up some of his ship
From Parks and Rec
Because I keep wiping
And it just is there
That's the one where Aubrey Plaza breaks
And they have to move the camera
And she looks away
Yeah
Dude there was a key and feel sketch
Where it was like a rap battle
Or something
I don't know
Did you see this one?
I probably seen it, but
there's a key in people's sketch where
they have people watching in the back
right? And what they're
doing to one another, I don't know if you can bring it up
Joey, but
what they're doing
in one another, the battle, whatever it is,
it's so funny that they tell
the extras if you
have to laugh, turn
around. Watching it
again, knowing that, it's
so funny. Because you just look at
the people in the background that out of nowhere
just like, yeah, yeah.
See if you can get that sketch.
Wait, let's see this. Let's see this. Yeah, watch some of Chris's.
Was Chris Pratt comedian?
I think he did stand up a couple times. He said that, I think, to Bill Maher.
And then he, uh, then he did mostly comedic acting.
But this guy's good. All right, go.
Are you aware of what Tennessee is? Yeah.
What point comes after juice? White.
Yeah, he is hilarious, bro.
I did not know he's his funny. I have hot snakes.
Hot snakes.
It's when the diarrhea comes out like a hot snake.
Andy.
I'll wipe and I'll wipe and I'll wipe and I'll wipe and I'll wipe
a hundred times still poop, still poop.
It's like I'm wiping a marker or something.
Pause it, pause, pause, in that dude, man.
He's so fun.
There's so many good shows that just I can watch the bloopers.
A TikTok will come up and it'll be with the bloopers
and I'll just be like, all right, five minutes of this, here we go.
Is he the one in that weird-ass religion?
No, no.
I thought he got in trouble for being in a weird religion.
No, he just got trouble for believing in God.
Yeah, he just, his tent toes down on Christianity.
He's like, I'm a Christian, and they're like, you fucking animal.
Why are we hating on Christ?
Listen, we're in, uh, what are we in?
I don't even know what to call it.
Because you don't really, you don't get fired, but we are in, like, outrage.
We're just, again, an outrage call.
where it's just like everybody's angry at everything.
But usually that means things are good.
Explain that. That's like when things are good, it's like you have to search for stuff to be outraged about.
Usually that's a good sign.
You know, that's a great point.
We're in things are horrible and outrage culture.
That's why this shit is too exhausting.
It's like there's enough shit to actually be outraged by.
You don't got to be upset about opera.
But right now we're upset at war and opera.
the same level of vitriol.
Oh, I can't take it.
I'm damn,
about to slip my wrist every other day.
Wait,
Jesus,
you just got tattooed.
You know what I mean?
You're going to cut,
hold on.
You're going to kill Martin again.
You can't kill Martin with a king twice,
Al.
No,
don't let the white people win.
I'm going to give him a lineup.
Nice line up.
I got black leaders on his wrist.
just so he doesn't kill himself.
That's how much I was trying to make it through the next day.
Who are you getting on that left forearm, bro?
God, did Hitler so I can finish the job.
Come on now.
Jokes.
No, he was on the right side of history right there.
Yeah, right?
Finish the job.
There you go.
All right, play this key of peel joint.
This shit cracked me a fuck up.
How do you make a show
This just bloopers?
I mean America's funny some videos
No, no, I mean like how do you make a scripted show?
I think you can't
Because the bloopers are what you're watching
Because they did it right for so long
You need a show to be beloved for 10 seasons
To get great bloopers out of it
I don't need
I don't know if that's the case
Because, like, even at the end of movies when we were kids,
there'd be, like, the blooper reel.
That's two hours of commitment to the characters.
Sure, sure, sure.
But, like...
Eight episodes of anything else.
There is something funny to me, inherently,
about seeing, like, you even watch an SNL sketch
and when someone breaks,
oh, yeah.
It's funnier than the point of the sketch.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And it's just like, maybe we're craving, like, real authentic moments.
Hmm.
Like, that's probably it.
Someone was asking me this other day,
they're like, do you laugh at stand-up?
And I'm like, yeah, like, I'm like a laffer.
I like to, like, if something's funny,
I'd like to,
give it up. But like I do
also like think about it when I'm
watching somebody funny. I'm like, oh, that's a good
bit. It's like an
analysis so much. But when something
happens that's not
supposed to happen,
I fucking die.
Franks get me, because the other person
is authentically
reacting at that point.
I just love a thing that
comics do when you guys are in the room.
watching other comics, you guys just laugh
incredibly loud, like
out of support.
Ha ha!
Yeah.
Like, what do you?
Why do you do that?
Maybe it's just like one of these
unwritten rules that you all do this shit.
Like when a baseball player tips the hat or something like that,
it's, I think it's a, yeah,
I do know what you're talking about.
They all do this shit.
You're trying to build the room a little bit.
No, no.
It's more, I think it's more just a message to the comedian.
Like, oh, that was a good joke.
Okay.
Like, oh, you popped us?
Ah, okay.
That was fire.
Do you like when you hear the comic that laughs a little laugh?
Always validating when you hear your peers laugh.
Gotcha.
Okay.
All right.
Always.
I always wonder, that shit is so funny to be.
Like, they'll be in the corner just like, ha ha!
Yeah.
It does throw some shit off.
On some level, there is probably like an attention-seeking nature to it.
Oh, wow.
But, like, I think the main core of it is like, hey, that was an awesome joke.
And I would like you to know that I know that.
Gotcha.
Which is great.
It's like, we ever hear like,
a director talk about another director?
Like favorably?
Or like even a musician
talk about another music. You're just like
you imagine what that other
musician or director is feeling
in that moment. You're like, oh, he's got a lot.
Quentin Tarantino is just saying how incredible
this person is. Oh yeah. If you get love
from your peers, that's yeah.
That's dope. That is fire.
Yeah, so I don't know.
I don't know what's going to happen in the world, man. So you've been
stressed? Yeah, but it's
a lot to do with the seasonal depression.
I get that every winter.
Are you out of it now that we had some good days?
Towards a tail end.
But it's still whatever.
You know it's got to suck when people are depressed in the winter
and then like the summer comes and they're still depressed.
And they're just like, oh, I got that shit all seasons.
Is that what you got?
No, but like that feeling, you know what I mean?
Like where you think, oh, it's just winter the second some sun comes out
and that sun's hit and you're just like, I still want to jump off this building.
and feel the sun coming down.
No, yeah.
That's what I feel it's like real pussy shit that it's like...
It's not pussy.
It's a lot of people about the shit.
It's like really, like, you know, my girl gives me no sympathy at all.
Oh, you're at that stage?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
She's like, welcome, my boy.
This is something you just tell yourself.
You all married, bro.
You wait till they have a kid to take care of.
You can't be tired again.
Women own exhaustion once you have a kid.
What I used to get sick, she used to get sick.
She used to take care of me.
She's like, oh, let me know when you're feeling better.
I'm like, the fuck?
My wife gives me one hour.
Where's the soup or something, you know?
One hour.
My wife is an amazing woman.
She's incredibly supportive, incredible.
Incredible.
She, I cannot be sick for more than one hour.
Yeah.
To the point where, and I like making sounds.
Like when I'm hungry, you'll hear me talk about it.
When I'm sick, you're going to hear me talk about it.
And she got like one hour of tolerance for that.
And after that, she just ignores me.
When I'm making sounds in front of you, I want you to react to those sounds.
Like, I'm like, oh.
I want you like, is your stomach okay?
She'll just go the other way.
That's great.
You know, that's not.
She, yeah, so mine is she not there yet.
She'll still react to this house.
She thinks I'm being a pussy.
She's like, man up.
She's like, I haven't slept in three years.
She's been calling me that all winter.
She just says you're a pussy straight up.
Not straight up.
Not straight up.
I was talking about it.
I was talking, it was me, her, and one of my friends.
And I was, like, discussing it.
And she just eye rolls.
So I may do that.
She just, he was like,
and he pointed out
he's like what she did she's like
you know it's some New York thing
I'm like the fuck it's on a New York thing
that's how you know she's white bro
because no if she was from Spain
if she was Spanish
a very sun
you know culture
they got a lot of sun over there
officially white bro they don't suffer from low
vitamin D over it
if she was a Spanish Latina
she would be cooking you fucking a roast comboyo
she'd be trying to nurse you back to help
she should be trying to get me
fat right now. Your mom would never. That's true. That's why I haven't told my mom because my mom would
have she would have damn then moved in. Really? Yeah. She's like that. Yeah, she's a nice
move her back to New York for a little bit, man. No, she's taking care of my, I have another nephew.
I got two now. What's the second one named? Alexander. After you? Yeah. But you're not even
really Alexander. Why you got to, why you got to kill it? Hold on. Why you got to kill it?
Hold on. Your sister named her kid after your stage name?
Why can't it just be after me?
That's like naming somebody's kid Eminem.
That would be fine.
More people know him.
Marshall, you go with the real name.
Do people know your real name?
I'm not going to say it because I know it's something you're embarrassed of.
No, I'm not embarrassed about it.
I just like to keep the separation.
It's no embarrassment.
So did she ask you, hey, do you want me name it off your real name or your stage name?
No.
She was, like, thinking about several names.
I threw Alexander out there.
Well, I threw Alex with two Xs out there.
She wasn't.
She wouldn't do the two X's.
I'm still trying to be like, it's still early enough.
You can change it.
But, yeah, so she compromised.
She gave me Alexander.
Wow.
Yeah, I know.
It's fire.
And how did her husband feel about this?
Oh, so he's British, and they do, like, long names.
So it's like, he got two.
two of his names in the whole shit.
It's like Alexander,
Montague, James, something,
da-da-da-da-da. He's like five or six names
in it. You threw a Montague in there?
I think so. I don't know if she wants me to tell all this.
Montague is Shakespeare, my boy.
Yeah, no, he has a fine name. It's a nice strong name.
Can somebody tell me... It's like royalty.
The Montague's...
He might fuck a kid.
Jesus, Alex. We were so close
of just moving on. Don't put...
Don't royals fuck kids. Ain't that?
what they're known for now?
There is a royal
I mean historically probably
Or they fuck cousins
That they do
100%
So
That they're from Alabama
Yeah that
That gene pool is a kitty pool
Yeah
It's a retarded kitty pool
Is just the shallow end
Yeah
But like
All right
What are you supposed to do
If you were royal
Back in a day
Right?
Yeah
And marriage got nothing to do with if you love someone or not.
Okay.
It's just, I would imagine, and, you know, obviously you guys tap in here, I imagine it's just about consolidating power.
Yeah.
Right?
It's like, we got to have another kid because if I don't have a kid, which is crazy pressure.
If I don't have a kid, a man.
Yeah, boy.
A boy, this whole kingdom goes to somebody else.
Okay.
Wild pressure.
You could see why that king cut the wife's head off.
Oh, Henry?
Yeah.
Give me a boy.
Is there a boy in there?
No.
But yeah, like that insane pressure, you've got to have a fucking boy.
You're just, and then you're marrying somebody who's either, like, I don't even know if they can marry nobility.
They've got to marry another royal.
Yeah.
So how many kingdoms are they even of Europe?
You've got six different families that you can eat.
even choose somebody from.
Yeah.
So eventually they're all kind of related at some point, right?
Yeah.
That was the thing I think about World War I.
Like, it was just a bunch of cousins at war with each other.
That's crazy.
Right?
Yeah.
And you couldn't have just worked that out.
People, you know, rich people.
Family, yeah.
Shit, dude.
That's what I've also figured out that, like, you know how rich people, like, don't
pay taxes?
You?
No, I paid too much.
No.
Well, you know, you're rich enough then.
I know.
Yes, I know this.
But you know how they don't pay taxes?
Yeah.
And how annoying that is, that's what it feels like when skinny people take Ozempic.
Right?
If that same feeling, it's like, you already got it, dude.
Like, you fucking got it already.
Why do you need to go more with it?
But then the thing, it's like, they end up taking too much and then they look fucking horrible.
Yeah.
So now I'm like, go do it.
What are your thoughts on the Ozept?
You're someone who's fluctuated and weighed.
You're always...
I got close to it.
I got close to taking it.
if I couldn't get my weight down.
Because remember, I had a, what's it called, high blood sugar.
Yeah.
Wait, so you would have a medical reason to do it?
No, no.
So October, 2024, 24, I was pre-diabetic.
I got a physical, I was pre-diabetic.
No way.
Yeah, so my doctor put me on Metformin.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then I cut out all sugar.
I went on like a super keto diet.
I dropped like almost 30 pounds in about four months.
But if I wasn't able to lose it and get my sugar on,
track, I would have did the shit.
I didn't know that you were, do you eat that much sugar?
You've seen me.
Yeah, but you're so diligent about your diet usually that like you can't control yourself.
But then I go off and then it's, yeah, and then it goes crazy.
Whoa.
So now it has to be all or nothing.
Well.
So I just don't do any sugar.
It doesn't have to be all or nothing.
It has to be nothing.
I don't have.
It has to be nothing.
Yeah.
Because if it's all, you're going to lose a foot.
Yes.
Yeah.
So now it's just nothing.
Yeah.
I can't.
Every time there's somebody's birthday, I can.
don't indulge.
I need to understand your relationship.
Speaking of, your birthday is tomorrow.
Oh, yeah.
You got a snitch.
How old are you going to be?
35.
My ass.
You've been 35 for four years.
Say, that's how.
No, what are you?
What are you really turning?
39.
This is the worst birthday.
40 is liberating.
Yeah, yeah, 30 was liberating.
40, you're the youngest old.
You're the oldest young.
You're the oldest young right now.
That looked good for my age, though.
Nobody's questioning that.
You're on Met Foreman.
You haven't met Foreman.
You're cheating.
Not now I'm actually, I got my sugar on track, so I'm off everything.
And you're not just continuing it?
Yeah.
Oh, I've been taking a fucking statin every single day.
I have no clue what it really does, yeah.
Oh, but that's for your heart.
That's different.
What is it?
What's up with my heart?
I mean, you were probably calcifying some arteries.
I thought calcium was good until like two years ago.
My whole childhood was like, oh, you need to get to calcium.
You need to get to calcium.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I had so much of it that my heart was.
So much of it that my heart is a fucking stone.
So I had to get on this stand.
I used to drink milk with like meals.
I was one of those families.
Yeah, me too.
Oh, yeah.
I would have milk like after exercise.
I'd be like, and then drink milk.
What an insane thing to do right now.
I know.
If I have cereal, dude, this is how old I am.
If I have cereal, I have to be delicate with the amount of milk.
Why?
Because I just won't be able to walk for the rest of the day.
I'll just feel stomach.
pains for the entire day.
I used to put a whole
bowl of milk in this.
I want milk last.
You want the milk after. I want milk after.
I might want to put the more cereal in there let's soak
that shit. Oh, yeah. I've run it back like a good
two times. Of course.
Then you got to do the balance of
a little more cereal, a little more milk.
I got a third of milk in there.
Milk got too warm. You got to have more.
You got more milk. I got a third of milk in there.
And then I'm mashing the cereal into the
bottom of the bowl.
Okay. Now that's...
can get a little bit of milk.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
That are not being able to walk for a day
because I had a bowl of cereal at 42 years old.
Yeah, nobody told you this.
Yeah, I can't do cereal anymore, too.
The best part is when you get the end of the cereal bag,
if you're doing something sweet.
Oh, and it's just the crumbles?
At the end, and that last sip of milk is...
Yeah.
Oh, man.
Good old days.
You guys are talking about my drug of choice there.
It's cereal, right?
Cereal's my biggest drug.
Like, I could give up drinking tomorrow.
Which you got in the cabinet right now.
I got it all, dude.
I got healthy shit.
I got that shit.
Give me the whole cabinet right now.
The unhealthy stuff is going to be...
Start with healthy.
Oh, start with healthy?
Special K, Red berries.
Okay, hold on one second.
Because that's what I have.
I've heard it's not that healthy.
I know.
That's what I'm talking about it.
I'm so passionate.
The special K, when we were kids...
We thought we were, like, eating salad.
It was salad.
Yeah, yeah.
And it was a different color, different texture.
I think it had less sugar on it.
Like, they turned special canes of frosted flakes without telling us.
Do you remember when it tastes like a kid when we were kids?
I wasn't doing special cane.
I was doing all the bad ones.
Son.
I was cinnamon toast crunch.
I have that in the house.
That was greases one.
Cinnamon toast crunch is why people have strokes.
Yeah.
100%.
That's why people have stroke.
Or cookie crisp?
Oh, yeah.
I wasn't a big fan of that one.
Just the idea that you would eat a bowl of cookie.
What the fuck does some, like, refugee from Russia think when they show up to America
and they're in somebody's house and there's just a bowl of little cookies with cereal
board on me?
This is breakfast every morning, yeah.
I would do the raisin brand crunch.
So it's like, raisin brand was supposed to be the healthy one.
And then they're like, nah.
Do the granola crunches in there.
Crunch and sugar in the shit.
Okay, go.
So you got special care red berries, which is,
goat cereal.
Yeah, yeah.
Goat adult cereal.
Just sweet enough.
Yeah.
But you think because it's grandfathered in through the health, you think it's healthy.
I don't even convince myself.
I've heard some doctors say you should just eat the box.
It's healthier to just eat the five-year-doll.
And I'm like, yeah, it's my drug choice.
I got excited for saying, I was like, we can eat the whole box.
Go, go, go.
Honey bunches of oats with the almonds in it, the blue box.
That shit is, I'll be honest with you, that's ass.
But that's when you think you'd be a fake healthy.
That's the mom and dad cereal.
Mom and dad thought that was healthy.
So you're like, all right, fuck it.
Let me eat this grown-up food.
It's funny because that was my mom.
Of course.
After I finished mine, I would just go to that one.
Yeah, yeah.
But it's kind of ass.
No, I love that one.
But you can do Honeybunches votes.
Just Bunches.
That shit will ruin your life.
Oh, so that's just the sugar part.
Yeah, just the sugar part.
That shit rules.
They take the Nature Valley granola bars.
Remember those hard shits that you could put like under a table
that you're eating out at to level it,
they just crunch those up
and put it in the bag.
2,000 calories, easy.
Yeah.
To the face.
Okay.
What else?
Damn, I want a goddamn cereal.
Captain Crunch Crunch berries.
Captain Crunch Crunch.
I don't like chocolate cereal.
That's my one issue.
The Crunchberry one that's fire.
Miles knows and shit.
I ain't going to lie.
Miles?
Also, 2% milk because I'm a fat, white kid.
Not as healthy, right?
2%.
We would go whole.
That's 3%.
That's even, yeah, that's even more.
Like, you mean it.
Hold on.
Wait.
It's only 3%?
I think so.
I thought it was 100%.
No.
I thought it went.
I thought it went.
I might be wrong.
I might be wrong.
Hold on.
Hold on.
After 2% bet, it was like mad water.
And they just put it like 2% now.
And that the skin was like like just.
Just what you're saying?
They just take the little tinny in a cow and they just do one squirt into a fucking gallon of water.
Boom.
That is fucking news to me, Miles.
It's 3.25%.
Get the fuck out of here.
That is crazy.
I just lures up.
And then skim's damn near fat-free.
It's like water, basically.
Yeah.
I hate it.
If you had skim milk, if I woke up and there was just skim milk in the fridge, I was like, I'm going back to bed.
I'm not going to school today.
I might as well just put water in your shit.
My mom would eat skim milk and then eat a wheel of cheese at night.
And I'm like, just fucking pick your poison.
What the fucking doing?
You got a dairy factory in your stomach.
Oh, man.
Okay.
But yeah, I mean, I just got, I'm like, I go to that bodega at night.
And this guy knows me so well.
This guy, yoga hardly speaks English.
And he just, if I don't buy cereal, he's like, are you okay?
Like, is everything all right?
That's funny.
Yeah.
Wait, did you hit us with the unhealthy shit yet?
Crunch berries?
The crunch berries?
Yeah, crunch berries.
I really like Reese's puffs.
That's too much.
It's too sweet now.
It gets on the top of your...
It's never too sweet.
There's nothing too sweet.
No, you got a thing.
You got a real thing, right?
Cinnamon toast crunch.
Cinnamon toast crunch rules.
The only chocolate one I like is cocoa pebbles.
I used to do honey nut Cheerios and then add honey on top.
I thought I was being like...
I was cultured.
Ooh.
Because I was adding honey.
I said of sugar.
And I would steal the honey packets from McDonald's.
These kids don't know about doctor in your own cereal.
My mom would buy the Cheerios with no sweetener or whatever.
Oh, my God.
Kellogg's, what was it called?
Like the off-brand?
Just regular Cheerios.
It was corn flakes or not honey-nut cherries, just cherries.
And then she would put the sugar on herself.
Like some old, like she was from communism.
or something like that shit.
And like, I'm not going to lie, putting your own sugar on the corn flakes.
Don't leave that up to Kellogg's, bro.
You got to do that at home.
Yeah, that's a little legendary.
Honey on the Honey Nutteros is weird because I don't think it would mix in.
Bruh, you got to keep.
You got to keep.
I'm telling you, it's nice.
My mom used to take the milk out of the fridge and give it one little shake
because she had powdered milk sometimes as a kid.
She didn't have a ton of money.
and we'd always laugh because she'd take it out
whoosh.
I always shake the milk.
You guys don't shake the milk?
That's to break up clumps.
I mean, it's like, yeah.
I think your milk just went bad.
No, no, I never.
Dude, the way I was eating cereal,
our milk didn't make it through the night.
Like, we were doing a gallon.
In high school, in high school to gain weight
because I was so thin and small,
I googled like, how can I gain weight?
What can I do?
And I'd lift every day and I'd drink a gallon of milk a day.
Go mad.
Wow.
Legit, a gallon of milk a day, whole milk or 2%.
every day for like a year.
He do look like a milk drinking.
He does. He got that.
That's crazy.
Yeah, my dad got prescribed a milkshake a day
from a doctor when he was a kid.
That's what medicine was back in the day.
People don't realize.
That's why you can't trust these vaccines, man.
What?
These doctors will prescribe anything.
Jokes about vaccines.
Please, don't clip us.
But, yeah, that was the prescription.
He was a skinny-ass kid.
They wanted him to put on weight.
And the doctor was like,
A milkshake.
A milkshake a day.
I wish I had that problem.
You know what?
You know what I wanted today?
The fucking shamrock joint.
Oh, Shamrock shake from McDonald?
What's a shamrock shape?
The green one.
Oh, from McDonald's.
It's like a McFlurry or something like that?
But they only do it on St. Paddies.
And you're not going to do it.
I was not going to walk and get it myself.
Did you ever get, come on?
Wait, why not now?
No, I mean, I wanted for the show, but I didn't want to go all the way up to Canal.
Oh, okay.
All right.
people to do stuff.
Bullshit.
Bullshit.
What were you saying, Miles?
Shut up. Shut up.
What were you saying, Miles? Bullshit.
Keep going to talk about.
What are you saying, Miles? Bullshit.
I was just talking about, you were talking about things you can get at McDonald's that are seasonal.
Were you ever hyped about the McRib?
No, I never got that shit.
What?
I never understood it.
I don't even think I've eaten a McRib.
Dead ass.
You're a city boy, bro.
This is, he grew up rich.
This is why I don't.
A speech community people.
Yeah, yeah.
You guys grew up with a beach community.
I did it.
I'm really.
these treats. And the reality
in the matter is, is that McDonald's is a
business that is made for profitability.
If that shit
was supposed to be eaten
or legal to eat
all year rounds, they would keep it on the
They would keep it. There's something about it
that they can only feed it to us
for like a month or whatever.
So that was always weird
to me. Like,
the logic checks out.
Why would you, if everybody loves it, why
would it stay on the menu?
Maybe it's just mad cheap
Because then you're going to rush
You wouldn't have the rush to go get it
When it's out
You don't care about your rush
Scarcy
You don't care about your rush Al
They know that that shit is going to kill you
What's crazy is that
It's like shaped like ribs
And it's not even ribs
No bones in it
You don't even know what that shit is
We don't know
And you ate it
It was delicious
It's delicious
It's delicious
It's not delicious
It's not a fish
A cheese
With the cheese
You know cheese and fish
is a number.
We didn't question any.
I was ghetto.
I was a ghetto kid, guys.
You don't understand with the level of ghetto I used to be.
You know what?
We needed as kids.
We needed conspiracies, man.
We needed like conspiracy theorists as kids.
We didn't question enough.
We would eat a fish sandwich from McDonald's.
Yeah.
No question what the fuck that fish was.
Mick Rib didn't have a single rib in it.
They only had it for a month out of the year.
We thought that's when ribs were made.
Like, there was no way to, like, we didn't, did you question a single thing as a kid?
So the beef from the quarter-pounder and the regular burgers are just so different.
And I'm like, why is the beef taste different?
Like, that's a little nuance right there.
I was a McDonald's condesore.
Can you think of a single thing you questioned as a kid?
I'm a Mick Somalia.
Did I say that, right?
No.
I tried.
You said Somalia, right?
Oh, so then.
Mick Somali.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Fuck you.
All right, give me something on that.
Where's the comic in a quarter?
I think McDonald's should give out a passport.
There's an idea I had.
They should give you a passport in America that when you go to McDonald's in other countries,
you can get it stamped.
So you get like a McDonald's passport and then you go to like...
Actually, not a bad idea.
It's not a bad idea.
Y'all are fat.
We are.
We are a good idea.
We really are.
Y'all are both, you're both culturally and spiritually fat.
Yes.
Neither of you are fat, but you're spiritually fat.
But I'm like proud of it, though.
Hell yeah.
Yeah, like, I've been through the trenches, bro.
You understand.
I made it out.
I need to try the finer things in life, like McDonald's in Sweden.
I still got both my feet right now.
I made it out, baby.
I mean, Miles, you really want to travel the world eating McDonald's for you.
I've never gone to a foreign country and knock on to the McDonald's in that foreign country.
Really?
You'd never like, you check out the menu.
It's always different.
What about Saudi Arabia?
Went in the airport in Saudi Arabia.
Went in the airport or went in Dubai.
Oh, no, I did Saudi Arabia inside the place where it did in that little fairground.
So we did the comedy.
Oh, yeah.
I remember when he dipped off and went to the McDonald's and he wanted to see that shit.
It's a part of it.
See, legendary.
Step it up.
You got to do it.
And what they have there?
A lot of chicken.
A lot of chicken, right?
Was it covered up?
Low key, the way that they wrap the burgers is kind of like a burqa.
Yeah.
You know?
I mean, yeah.
The Mick Burka, they could sell that.
It just has a little...
Don't, that'll be fire.
Oh, come on.
Hey, man, they're not all going to hit.
Yeah, don't let me bomb up, there's only three of us in the room.
Bombing's a lot louder.
Yo, bombing is a lot louder.
It's just us, right?
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, they're dealing with enough bombs over.
over there, we might as well have you.
Open the straight.
Let the McDonald's free.
Let the oil.
Let the oil.
Okay?
All right.
There's a, I saw this shit.
This shit I thought was one of the most brilliant marketing ideas in history.
This is a real thing.
Okay?
This is a real thing.
Do you know it's March Madness?
Yeah.
Cal She is doing.
a $1 billion perfect bracket challenge,
meaning the winner, if they get a perfect bracket,
gets a billion.
Gets one billion dollars.
That's crazy.
The best bracket gets a million.
Let me tell you,
and then they took a million to charity
or something like that.
Now, the chances of getting a perfect bracket
are like, like, this is next to zero.
You can look and see if anybody in history
has ever done it, right?
Oh, really?
I thought like several people win every year.
No.
No, no.
Perfect.
The whole bracket perfect.
Oh, okay.
I don't think it's ever done.
Warren Buffett used to sort of offer this.
The closest known attempt was in 2019 when a bracket went 49 games without a mistake before breaking.
Wow.
It's harder than the lottery.
Now, this is why I think it's brilliant.
So nobody wonders, nobody is thinking like, I can do it.
But if you are going to fill out a bracket, if you're going to do one bracket, would you not do it in the place that you could win a billion dollars?
Oh, absolutely.
And also the way.
I don't even do this bracket shit, but I'm going to try.
What's the buy-in for it?
I don't know.
We should look at that.
Figure out what the buy-in.
But like...
It's like, you know, $5 million.
No, shit.
I wonder if that's just free, Loki.
Yeah, I would imagine it's free.
It might just be free.
So then how to fuck they don't pay out.
Well, this is how it works.
It's actually really interesting.
But I imagine just signing up is the thing that's valuable.
And then maybe when you sign out, we trade on games, whatever.
But, like, this is the genius.
So the way these things work, like, when somebody does, like, a half-court shot in an NBA game,
the team doesn't pay you if you win.
The team pays an insurance company
a much smaller amount
and the insurer covers the win
if they hit it. Oh, wow.
So with this, I don't know what the deal is,
but I'm curious. It's like,
nobody's ever done in history, so for the insurer,
it's a pretty safe bet, but
how much do you have to pay
to get a billion dollars of insurance?
Yeah. Does Calci go, okay, here's 10 million?
Okay, how to claim your free Calci,
billion dollar bracket injury.
Wow.
You've got a visit Calci.
You create a new account.
Anyway, so this is a
perfect example, right?
Economies fucking shit.
Everybody needs
a dollar.
There's a free option
to win one billion dollars.
This is dangerous.
Listen, I'm saying it here right now.
There's going to be a couple of Nancy Carrigan's taking
out knees, bro.
This is dangerous.
You know what I thought with this?
Is like, and I guess you can't do it
be as like every account is verified like cali actually is different than the other ones where like
they take your fucking information and shit like they take your social security or whatever but like
my first thought before i realized that was with ai why don't we use claude or chat gbt or whatever to
create half a million accounts and just try every permutation you possibly could oh you fucking them
over right well no but they they make sure that they verify that you're a real person that's the
shitty way that we can't you know rip them off i mean we got the migrants son you're
Exactly. We got them in the hotel. You give each one an iPad. And it's like, yo, all day.
Yeah. All day. You've got to be signing up their accounts.
It's one in 9.2 quintillion.
Quintillion the chances. But again, it doesn't matter. I'm saying this here right now,
I think this year somebody does it. I don't know if they're going to do it through them
and they're going to fucking wish they did. But I, for some reason, feel this year is the year somebody gets it.
And then that's a bit like, yeah. I got it. I'm going to do it.
Look, don't you feel like I feel like I'm gonna do it.
I'm lucky.
I be getting mad lucky.
One and nine point two quick.
Yeah, I got lucky.
I got this.
And I think you got to go about it, not looking at the seeds, really.
I'll hit you off with a mill.
How much would you give me if you want a billion dollars?
A mill.
What?
Just one?
You got a billion.
All right, the government's going to take half.
So now you're at 500.
$500, though.
You know, Al's mama going to be living in the same house she's in before that billion.
Let me tell you that.
Nobody gets a new house.
I'm going to pay it off.
You're in a beach community, Mom.
Don't you love living by the ocean?
The salt air hitting your nostrils?

Yo, we were talking about this
Actually, we didn't talk about it
On Brilliant, but some people
are thinking about moving out of America
Yes, what do you think about that?
I'm looking at Spain
Is this a different
reaction than remember when like
Rosie O'Donnell and like, who is the other lesbian, Ellen.
Like, they're like, I'm leaving the country.
And then I think they ended up coming back.
Or do you think this is fundamentally different, like people reacting to what is happening
and them not feeling comfortable?
Yeah, I think the latter.
Because it's like, you're just looking at the direction things are going in.
And it's like, and he's getting more and more brazen with the stuff that he's doing.
Yeah.
Like, it's low-key scare me.
And I think the economy is going to collapse because right now,
we don't want to get political, but whatever.
Like, the way we went after Venezuela, China can go after Taiwan and we can't say shit.
And if that happens and Invidia stock gets affected, our whole stock market collapses.
That's the thing I don't understand about Taiwan.
And I understand that these systems are complex.
And like, Taiwan doesn't just, we had a, what's his face on here on this pod?
Oh, man, what was his name?
Geopolitical Expert?
Indian guy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Free Zakaria.
And he was saying how, like,
he was saying, like, these chip processing places,
like, they rely on 15 different countries to even execute the chip.
Like, this country doing this thing and this country doing that thing.
So it's not just them.
But it is shocking to me that chip processing that our entire stock market is kind of relying on the same way that the,
you know, during, like, the dot-com era, the stock market was, like, really heavily dependent on these,
these dot com stocks, these tech stocks,
it is crazy to me that
we would allow it to exist
in this foreign country
that could be invaded at any point of time.
And we wouldn't try to shift that over here.
And maybe that's what they're trying to do now.
It's that difficult.
Just pick up the machine and bring it over here.
It must be that difficult.
And imagine if you have something
and you're the only place in the world
that can do that shit, you're not giving that up to nobody.
You might give it up to the people
that are making sure that you,
not Chinese.
You know what I mean?
True. Yeah. But.
So you're really concerned about like economic downturn.
Now the question would be where would you go?
Because I imagine these other places aren't like impervious to the negative effects of a global economic collapse.
Yeah, but there's a lot of places in Europe that like they kind of don't get involved with this shit.
Like Spain is one of these places like, yo, do your thing.
We're not involved.
Like leave us alone.
And then like, of course everybody's going to be affected.
but I think the euro will hold up a little bit more than the dollar will.
I don't know. Again, I don't know enough.
Yeah, I don't know enough. Look, if the American economy takes a massive, massive hit,
we're the biggest consumers in the world, bro.
The whole world does not want that to happen.
That's true.
So it's like, well, what the fuck?
Like, if every other country that's making shit all of a sudden doesn't have their biggest buyer,
what happens to their economies?
I'd rather be in a place where people are used to getting by with less.
Well, that's a decision that you can make for sure, which is like,
change your lifestyle.
It's going to get a little crazy.
You think it's going to get a little crazy?
I think it's going.
And would there be a place here that you would consider going?
And it doesn't have to be like some bougie-ass place, but just like a community that you're like, you know what, this is kind of insulated.
I like the lifestyle here.
I like how people live.
And I don't think it will be as reliant on tech stocks that are all.
I don't know of any.
Like, can you think of any?
Yeah.
Where?
I mean, you know, you could probably go upstate.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, I guess.
I mean, there's probably tons of places that you could go to where, you know,
these are just like nice insulated communities.
Matter of fact, why would you still cold upstate?
It's still like, yeah.
You want some good weather, too.
Yeah, like, I'm going to pick some place.
So you really just looking for an excuse to leave America and you're trying to blame it on the economy?
It's looking a low, it's not looking good.
Yeah.
Well, what it was...
But it's not like I'm trying to.
I'm just, I want the option.
If shit goes down, I want to be able to.
And what does shit go down look like to you?
I don't know.
I honestly did.
Stock market collapsing and then people being hungry and then fighting crime.
Oh, you're worried about like violent uprising.
Yes.
Whoa.
Yeah.
Well, yeah, that makes things very different.
It's already pretty tight and no one's doing anything to make things better.
Bro, it's, yeah, it is a concern.
I never, yeah, I didn't think about like violent uprisings because of like economic downturn.
I thought about Valley and Uprising is because of like systemic issues
and like fighting for people's rights and fighting for their livelihood.
Like that's something that I think that we've seen in our lifetime.
But simply from the point of like we need food and we're going to go attack something.
Because it's like that's a motherfuckers are getting fired with AI.
And it's going to keep happening.
So that's faster and faster.
Okay. So that's the thing, right?
Like the existential crisis of AI.
Yeah.
Everybody is concerned about that.
there's these conversations about entry-level jobs.
I'm sure you've heard of.
Yeah, but now it's even white-collar jobs.
Of course, of course.
But, like, I think what, at least from what I've read,
complete casual to this,
but like they're saying that it could wipe out
30 to 40% of entry-level jobs,
meaning like the assistant work
or like, you know, a junior editor, for example,
instead of, you know, organizing files
and setting up these different editing documents,
you can have your, I guess, clawed potentially organizing it for you, et cetera.
So that would limit 100%.
And then Anthropic released something the other day that says like, oh, coding jobs, doctors, law assistants or whatever.
Like, Josh, you have to go to college for it.
So here's my question.
Here's my question about that.
This is not the first time that there's been like transformative technological advances.
There's no question that there's.
there's going to be a period where, like, people are going to lose jobs.
But hasn't history shown us that, like, other jobs will sprout up around the technological
advancement?
So, like, computers come around and they wipe out whatever the fuck they wipe out.
But now you have all these computer technician jobs.
You have people that are creating new types of computers.
You have competitive coding companies that are, like, trying to develop, you know,
more sophisticated programs.
Does that also continue and do the jobs just shift in that direction?
Potentially, but I think it's going to happen to too many people too quickly and there's not
going to be enough of the new jobs available for all the people out of work.
Right. And that also could be the case.
I just can't see a world where we create enough new jobs for everybody to pivot to.
Right.
And when that happens, our country already fights over how much taxes we pay and handouts, this and that,
socialism like i don't think we're coming to the help of people well i mean that's going to be
the circumstance where it's just like people are going to need money to survive and the economy
is going to need liquidity to survive and by liquidity i mean like people are going to need to buy
things yeah you can pump some money into the economy for a while so so does does it end up being
like that universal basic income situation where where it actually they're not doing it because
they're like, oh, we're worried that you're hungry.
They're doing it because they're like, Apple still needs to sell phones, right?
And we still need to make sure that there's money being exchanged in this economy.
But think about the resentment that's going to build between people who work and people
who get the free money.
Well, what's the resentment?
We already have the resentment right now for people on fucking welfare.
Yeah, but I feel like if go go, go, Miles.
The U of UBI would be universal.
Everyone gets paid.
Yeah, but still like,
the people at home not working versus the people who work,
even if you get the extra money,
there's still going to be some resentment.
It's like you stay at home.
It's not going to be the lifestyle of the person who has a career.
That's the same thing that's happening right now
to people on food stamps and people still complain about those people.
Yeah, but that's whack, bro.
Like, I don't think like really wealthy people
are worried about people on food stamps or thinking about them.
Do you listen to politics?
They complain about them all the time.
People leaching off the government.
Yeah, but I don't think two or three kids.
staying at home. I don't think those are the wealthy
people. I think those are politicians that are representing
people who are disenfranchised.
So I think they're representing
voices that are like far more
impoverished than like
the billionaires. The billionaires aren't even thinking
about that. They're like, it's not my money
that goes to the food stamps. I'm hiding my money.
I'm talking about the infighting amongst the
lower middle class.
That's the way of the fighters got happened.
Listen, I've like read something about it and all this
stuff seems like a potential plausible outcome.
But I'm also in this place right
now where I'm I think right now because things are so bad that many people have a very negative
outlook on America.
So what trends and what gets views is America bad, i.e., if you look at like any, this is a bad
example, but like, when the war first started
with Iran, the videos that were getting all the views were
America's going to lose. And I think that that, not
only is that interesting, because you're probably like, oh shit, I thought we had the strongest
army, how the fuck we were going to lose? I think there's maybe also a part of it,
which is like, well, fuck, what the fuck is America doing?
I don't know if it feels deserved, but like there is that, like,
it's not a nihilistic standpoint, but there is this viewpoint that's just like,
there's it's negative and we are trying to find a way to frame it where it's like it's not like
we want america to do bad but because things don't look good we're looking to confirm that
feeling we have is that yeah yeah kind of makes sense yeah so i'm a sometimes i at least try to
treat the existential crisis content with a little bit of skepticism where i'm like is is this real or is
creating a
piece, a YouTube video about how
AI is going to destroy all the jobs, just the
thing that gets the most views.
Got you know what I mean? I feel like
I approach it that same way. I just
would like just in case it is
to have an option. To be prepared.
I think that's smart. You want your
bunker. Whatever your version of the bunker.
Yeah, yeah. And then when you see...
Got my concealed carry license.
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know what the fuck's
is going to go down. Just in case.
It's like, when you see the rich people building bunkers,
like we'll out to be suspicious too.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I get it.
But you do get where I'm coming from where it's like
if the content is satisfying the feeling
and I think that's kind of like how the internet works.
It's like however people feel, the content,
like content is oftentimes audience capture.
So it's like when Timmy Chalmay is the coolest guy on the planet,
all the videos were, look how cool his shit Timmy Chalemay's,
look how amazing his outfits are, look how awesome his movies are,
look how dedicated he is to his craft.
then when it's
Timmy Chalmay sucks
and he shouldn't have done that
now you see all the same creators
doing content about how he sucks
so in a lot of ways I think that
like the content creation
is a reflection of what people feel
not the other way
whereas back in the day
before you knew what views were
like when you were just making newspapers
or magazines you didn't know
how many people really read it
like yeah you know who bought it
etc but you didn't know what was
resonating what articles, et cetera,
they kind of dictated information
and then people reacted to
information.
So they could kind of dictate the feeling
of the public.
You know, like...
Yeah, but then isn't that...
So isn't the content now more reflective
of how the people I feel?
Yes, 100%.
And before you could propagandize way better, right?
It's like, hey, we got to go to war,
okay, all the media companies, let's get on the same page
about why this is important, yeah, yeah.
What I'm just saying is that
I think human beings in general have a more like a catastrophic thinking when it comes to the world and outlook.
It's more rare for us to be hopeful and optimistic.
And I think that's why like one specific, you know, figures like an Obama and these like, or like even Momadani, these like incredibly charismatic optimistic people come on.
It's, it's, you see religious figures also do this, right?
Where it just like, I mean, you see a lot of like, I don't know how you feel about them, but like the wealth.
preachers. Like, you're going to be rich, you know, type of...
And it's like, it's intoxicating a lot of ways. Because it's a break from the catastrophic
thinking that is probably more ingrained into our, like, primal nature.
Yeah. You know, like, we're always worried about how things are going to go bad because
that's how you stay alive. So I try to, like, when I see trends on the internet,
I try to go, okay, is this real? Or are these people just creating what is going to
feed off the feared insecurities of the audience?
Gotcha.
And you're not worried at all?
No, no, of course I had those worries,
but I try to, like, talk back the worries,
so I'm not just reading things that confirm my concerns.
I'm not as catastrophic as, like, maybe some, you know,
where it's just like, yeah, I, you know,
I think, like, the global economy is so intertwined that, like,
I think right now, like...
Even when he's billionaires of building bunkers
and the people that are working at the tech places
that are creating this fucking AI
of trying to warn you like,
yo, guys, this is going to, like, collapse.
That shit is scary.
Like, that shit doesn't confirm.
That shit is scary.
And then I'll, like, ask Chat, CBT, an easy question,
and it'll get it wrong.
And I'll be like, no, we got a few years.
You know what I'm like?
So it's like, is it going to take over the world?
Or does it not know, you know,
the difference between red and green?
Yeah.
Or whatever.
Like, it's tricky.
I just, I don't think that I haven't witnessed it.
And again, like, we live in a weird space
where we're, I'm sure we could use AI
and I'm sure the things that we do with AI in our business,
but it's probably not as prevalent if you're in a fucking law firm
or you work at like a CPA agency
when you're doing taxes, you're probably like, oh shit,
you're using Claude to do your job and you're like,
eventually we're not going to need a me.
I said this on Al's show.
We were on Sunday.
I said, I think a lot of middlemen,
or like, I don't want to call the middlemen,
but like that job that is between an individual
and a like industry
are a lot of the people that are like
oh those two might get a lot closer.
Can I give an example of that?
Real estate agents.
That was a job that
and it sucks because one of my guys is a real estate agent
but that's like been a job that I'm like
when are they going to?
So like there's value for the real estate agents
I think in terms of like knowledge
and awareness of an area
when you're buying a place.
Like them being able to go look
like I know the history of this building
the building's in debt
so if you buy in here you're going to take on that debt
like all these little things that like you and I
probably wouldn't even think of when buying a place
also knowing little obscure shit
like there's a subway project coming into this area
so now this street is actually going to be super valuable
like these other little intangibles
if you're just renting an apartment
in a city that you only plan to live
for like a few years
like
how is Zillow not
worked it out where you just apply
like you do for
a restaurant reservation.
Yeah, I know. It's crazy.
Like you, what are we doing here?
Like, Tesla doesn't have
any dealerships. You
order your car through an app.
And it shows up at your house.
Get the fuck out of it. Like, there's no
dealership. Remember when banks did that?
Remember when it was like Charles Schwab
or something? It was like, they were like, yo, no ATM
fees. And we're like, what's the cats? And they're like,
we don't got a bank.
And then we're like, so I can use any ATM?
They're like, yeah, you're like, all right, take my money.
Like, I don't want to go to my bank.
I want to go to the fucking ATM machine at Times Square
to charge me $12 to take out money.
So, yeah, I think that they're, okay,
maybe the specific jobs where they are middlemen
and you could see technology even without AI closing the gap.
Like, it is crazy.
You should be able to get an apartment by just reaching out directly.
to the person.
Yeah.
Right?
But hey, it's a job.
Somebody's lively.
No, no, I don't want them to lose that.
And I think when it comes to buying a property, it's this massive investment.
It's like everything you've ever earned.
I don't know if you would want to leave that up to a computer.
But like when you get an Airbnb, this is why I think it's kind of obscure.
When you get an Airbnb, is there a real estate agent involved?
No, no, just the company itself.
Right?
So it's like you give your information.
They do, granted, it's for a shorter amount of time.
So it's not that big a deal.
But like, how is renting your apartment month?
for months different than an Airbnb.
It's not fundamentally that different.
Yeah.
Right or...
No.
You're not wrong.
But that just scares me.
It scares me for...
Like, luckily, I think I'm safe, but I said this on the show also.
Thank you for coming through to the show.
It was dope.
Miles is really opinionated, bro.
Oh, I love it.
That is not true.
I pulled the Mark Agon and just sat on that face.
No, no, no.
He did his thing.
But it's like, it was my business, for example.
I've already pointed out ways that I can use AI to save money and skim down on jobs.
What's an example, not saying you would do it, but what's an example?
Like, there's a lot of these AI things to cut clips where I don't need to have a team of people that cut clips for people.
I can save, I can right now save a bunch of money, and I'm choosing not to because the business is still doing well, and I don't want to fire people.
But if it comes to it where the business starts to suffer, you're going to have to find less.
Yeah.
And, like, that is the same thing that probably every business owner is thinking about right now.
Yeah, that's a tricky thing where it's like...
And I don't have to like...
What's it called?
Like, investors that...
Like, I'm not on the stock market.
So I don't have to like...
You don't have to answer to those investors.
Exactly.
But if you did, you got to show returns and yeah, yeah.
That is the...
Yeah, like the ideal scenario, right?
Is like every one of us could use AI
to make our jobs easier and better.
And everyone still has their job.
Yeah.
Right?
Like, the ideal scenario is like,
Miles, you get to use AI to help you with your processes for production, editing, et cetera, and it cuts your work down, but you still make the money you make, and you get to enjoy more of your life and you could do other things with your time.
Like, that is just, that's the ideal scenario.
But as we know, we live in a fucking system that is going to be built around profit.
Not everybody is going to have a kind of communal office vibe that we have where, hypothetically.
and sorry,
sorry, Miles,
you're the example on this.
What if
you saw Miles posting every day
like on a beach,
drinking a margarita
and all the work
is getting done.
Somehow he found
AI automation
to everything.
You'd be perfectly fine with it.
That he's not here
and he's chilling.
The second he fucks up.
Oh, that is.
I'm going through
his whole Instagram feed with him.
you know what I'm going to do I'm like
why would why did this happen right here like why we want to be here
yeah yeah you know uh so yes that would happen
i'm aware of that already no no but like for me
if if the business is is profitable and everybody's eating and there's a
fine if there's a technological advantage that we can use here's a perfect example
it's not fucking AI but when we first started a podcast right
we would have to process three cameras of audio back in the day,
or video back in the day, right?
And it was like, then you'd have to sync up the cameras,
sync it up to the audio,
and then edit angles from all three cameras.
And then I bought this thing called a switcher.
You remember when we bumped into each other at B&H?
Yes.
We were both by this switch.
I'm like, how can I make this job easier?
So it's like...
You're like, how can we streamline this shit?
I'm like, oh, boom.
So it's like there's, I was like,
Because basically what I asked is like, how do they do it on the news?
Like, the news isn't pre-recorded.
So, like, there has to be a way.
And somebody explains me that there's this thing called a switcher,
which allows you to record all the cameras,
but what's recorded is only the camera that is, like, focus.
They're chosen at the time.
And I was like, holy shit.
So you're saying, like, by the end of the episode,
we have a fully edited episode.
Now, things have changed now.
We have to make some changes or edits or insert ads or blah, blah, blah.
But there was a time where it was just we were rifling off the ads during it.
And I was like, okay, wow, this is a piece of technology that makes Alex's life way easier.
Now, I'm sure my brain immediately went like, okay, now that you have all that extra time, can we cut some clips from the pot?
I didn't stop thinking about other things we could do.
But it wasn't like, okay, now that your life is easier, can we pay you half as much as you used to me?
Like, my feeling was like,
yo, if we're going to be here for eight hours
and we could turn this work into two hours,
what can we do with the other six hours?
Can we film a sketch?
You know what I mean?
Can we have a cool brainstorm session?
Like, what game could we add to the pod
that would make it better?
That's kind of what I, my thing.
But again, I don't run like a factory
that makes zippers.
Yeah.
If you run a factory to make zippers,
you're not trying to do creative shit.
Yeah, yeah.
So.
It's interesting, guys.
It's going to be some fun times ahead, bro.
It's very funny. We've switched this is like now inside baseball shit, but we used to use a switcher that I was live switching all times.
We don't do that anymore. I just rewatch the episode and cut it back down.
And this is interesting. It's because you can sometimes with the switcher, you'll be on a single on Alex.
And then Mark will say the most hilarious bit.
And you miss it. And then we miss it. And it's like our logic is essentially like the audience is going to miss a really fun moment.
Yeah.
So Miles takes way more time to now, you know, figure that out.
There are other versions that you could do that might be less time.
No, but it's gotten faster.
It's gotten better.
And like it's really good now that we don't miss that shit.
I think, like, when I watch it, I'm like, ooh, these choices are really good.
Because when you're switching in real time, it's hard.
You don't know who's going to talk.
You never, and also.
You miss every joke.
You miss every joke because a lot of times, like, the joke that's funny is you say something and then someone has a quick, witty response.
So you have a quick, ready response to somebody else.
So I do the switcher.
and brilliant and it almost feels like an instrument like a music instrument and it's like it's my
fingers are kind of like just attached to the person talking not even talking about it not even talking
and then I'm even thinking about getting the reaction of the laugh yeah and like I cut to that and it's like
it's not I'm not thinking I'm not trying it's just like I'm talking and engaging in the conversation
and my fingers are just doing so yeah yeah but that's just something that's just that's that's another
thing it's like it needs to become so what is the term like like
wrote because if you're thinking about switching yeah you can't and you're contributing yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah trust me guys i know yeah imagine and processing audio and pulling stuff up on screen
not possible yeah it was difficult time can you tell me what the fuck white lotus season for
cast and location revealed is oh i didn't hear about that the location is the french riviera oh i knew that was gonna
happen. I love that. There's some huge
names in it. Gimmie.
Helen Abottom Carter. Who's that?
That is
Belichick Club. She's a
She's a fight club. I love her.
She's a... Belitrix.
The Strange from Harry Potter. Oh, Belitrix.
Okay, okay, okay. All right.
She is... Who's her wife?
She's married to
Nightmare on El, not Nightmare on
Street. Tim Burton.
Isn't she married to Tim Burton?
She married to Freddy Krue?
No, no. Didn't he do
some fucking Halloween movie?
He did.
Christmas.
Nightmare.
He technically didn't direct it, but yes, you're right.
Nightmare before Christmas.
He just wasn't directing.
Kumail is on there?
Can we see pictures?
Because I don't know these niggas names.
They apparently broke up.
Yeah, Kumail's on it.
Kumail, the Indian guy who was in the Marble movie.
I think he's Pakistani.
Pakistani, my fault.
I'll scrub that, clean it up.
Oh, you're going to get it, right?
Max Greenfield is awesome.
He's from...
New Girl.
New Girl.
He's funny, that guy.
He's so good.
Yeah, he's funny.
Who else we got?
Sandra Bernhard.
Who's that?
Oh, she's an OG.
O.G., yeah.
She's an O.G.
You recognize her.
That one.
Oh, okay.
All right, so she's going to be the pill popper.
Who is the...
100%.
Who is the holdover?
Because don't they bring one person from each...
Yeah, let me find that out.
Oh, yeah, everybody died at the end, right?
No, they had a...
the
didn't the black chick
whose son came
didn't she live
oh the the yeah
yeah because she wasn't at that scene
where everybody got shot up
and didn't she make money off it too like
oh that was what happened she was supposed
to start a thing with the Asian dude
she was fucking and then she got paid
and she was like I gotta go like
that's the beauty of that show it just shows
you everybody's a piece of shit yeah
like it's real
It is crazy.
I want to talk to the creator, Mike White,
I think of his name?
Yeah, Mike White.
I want to talk to him because, like,
as beautiful as the creation is,
like,
is the cost of that having, like, a cynical outlook on humanity?
You got to get him.
He would be so fun on this pod.
He would be.
He's awesome.
Because he's also, like, obsessed with Survivor randomly.
He was on it, and I think he's on the 50th season.
Yeah, yeah.
Wait, he's a cast member?
He was a cast member once.
Oh, wow.
But like because he loves the show.
Obsessed.
He was already like producing TV.
Yeah, I think he was already in the industry, right?
Like he was a celebrity survivor.
Well, he wrote the Jack Black movie School of Rock.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
But yeah, again, so it's like, is this just a thing that he's good at?
Or is this kind of his outlook on humanity a bit where he's able to access the kind of the most selfish,
parts of our being.
And like, what's the cost of that?
It's like, you know how like cops always deal with people lying to them all day?
Yeah.
So, you know, there's like a little distance sometimes when you're talking to one.
Yeah.
Even off, you know, off hours.
Like if he's not working, it's still everybody's trying you.
So I think I imagine you start to see people as a little bit piece of the shit.
Yeah.
Did you feel that way a little bit?
A little bit.
The older I get, I feel more that way.
Yeah, it sucks.
Yeah.
Can we try to like galvanize the audience to tag somebody like that and get him on the show?
Yeah, we need...
I've seen shows do that and that shit works.
We got to do that.
We need everybody telling Mike White, we need...
Everybody at home, please tag Mike White.
I know this kind of corny.
I feel even kind of corny saying that shit.
No, I don't feel corny.
We would love to get him on the show.
He would just be a cool person to talk to.
Like, what is...
And how does he observe these groups?
Like the way he did those group of girls, there was those three girls on last season.
And nailed it.
And like, he nailed it to the point.
White girls.
Yo, he nailed to the point that my wife would be watching it.
And, like, it was a combination of laughter and also cringe.
And that she goes, oh, my God, I have friends to do that.
Like, oh, this is how girls are.
You got to be locked in.
I heard that from every girl.
It's like either they were one of them or they know.
Most of them said they know.
Yeah, my friend is.
None of them was.
You wanted them to.
I think having an obsession over reality TV makes you addicted to like,
reality TV only gets people who are like the most boisterous in their own personality trait.
Yeah, and he's obsessed with it.
He was on amazing race.
Obviously, if he's in those shows, he's watching them all.
And he's just a fan of.
reality TV and reality TV is almost
White Lotus dramatized and like those characters
that's a great observation miles yeah it's like
reality TV specifically it's gotten so good at casting
the reality star and there are like qualities to it
right it's like extreme emotional reactivity
manipulative
and a lack of of self-awareness
so where like you can behave in a way that most of us
would feel like was reprehensible without even really
realizing it. Like you kind of feel
pseudo-justified in whatever you do.
At least in the moment you can't acknowledge
it. And
yeah, that's every character on that show.
They feel completely justified in their bullshit.
It's funny. Before we started recording,
Shifty was explaining these Mormon
bitches to me. Tell me, tell me, tell me.
I don't know if I could break it down.
Should we have Shifty come out? It sounded like
a episode of White Lotus, the way
he was breaking the shit there. He's
like, this fucking Mormon bitch,
this guy. Then she went on the back
and then she was like pregnant and then immediately off the bachelor went back to the guy she was
fucking that guy is fucking all her friends and some old lady of some shit like that like he was just
it was it seems like a dope show and i don't even watch reality tv but i'll give it a watch just son it is
like it sounds like episode of white loaded it is like you watch so so so no so my wife was
i hate when guys do what i just did so yes
I hate because like
Look, nobody does this with Game of Thrones
Nobody does it
Like, it don't matter if your wife puts it on
If you watch it, you say you watch it
But when it comes with the fucking
Heating rivalry
Or the Mormon wives or any of these like housewife shows
It's always, yeah, my girl was watching it
And then I took part, whatever.
Heat of rivalry, I hope it's always the girl
Yeah, it is, yeah, it is
Anyway, so
I actually told my wife about this one.
She was on her housewife shit.
And I was like, how are you not?
Son, I'm plugged into the internet.
What's so with you?
I'm plugged into the internet, bro.
Who are you?
I'm Andrew Cameron Schultz, the son of Larry Schultz.
Larry was his name.
Larry would be upset.
He'd be upset.
He might, son.
He might, son.
Oh, God.
But yeah, so.
how you put your wife on to reality?
Yo, look, look, look, look.
Look, look.
Look, look.
It's insane.
I got painted nails and I'm ashamed to you, bro.
Son, it's insanity because I had to like broach it.
Like she kept watching like, Real Housewives are Potomac or some shit.
And I'm like, oh, because I knew she wasn't watching it.
I was like, what's happening in that Mormon Wives show?
And she's like, oh, I haven't watched that one yet.
And I was like, oh, word, like, it's crazy.
Like, I'm trying.
And she's like, yeah, I'm just not into it.
And I'm like, it's so crazy.
Like, I'm trying to.
But why you try to get an audit?
Because I wanted to watch it, but I'm not trying to sit there.
I'm being in my family, my two children, my wife, watching some bitch who tastes like fruity peat.
I was good.
I was going to hear all the bitch who's hot on this shit.
He's like, yo, you know who we might want to give this one to watch.
They got some lookers.
We're not going to allow.
So on Shifty said there's a bunch of baddies all that.
They got some, now you know why that lake is salty.
You know what I mean?
There's some lookers on the show.
But they're crazy.
They're crazy.
So what is it about Mormonism?
It drives you crazy because they're too like, you got to be a certain way.
And then they just blow up and become.
These girls are all kind of Mormon culturally too.
Yeah.
Some are like Mormon about it.
And then some are like culturally Mormon.
in the way that they're
religious Jews and cultural Jews.
Yeah, okay.
It's not like Christians and
like, everybody in America is kind of culturally Christian.
Like we celebrate Christmas and that kind of shit.
This is a little different.
Like their community is a little different.
Like they might not go about all the things,
but they're not drinking.
You know what I mean?
They might not go to church, but it's just like...
But I heard these girls is like...
They're not rejecting it.
They're not all them are rejecting it.
Oh, really?
Really? Yeah, there's some baby mama on there, but they're not all.
What I think is like, you know how there was like the church girl who was like the slut?
Yeah, you're thinking that they're having a run springer.
Yeah.
But then it's like because they had to be repressed for so long, they became ultra-sluts.
This show to me isn't about sluttiness.
It's about-sleeping around.
It's peeing on mouths and shit.
They're like married girls on it.
It's a lack of-
Like R. Kelly without the kids.
No, no, no, no.
I'm telling you, brother.
it's a
lack of shame
there is no
there's a term in Spanish
I mean we have it too
but it's like seen Berguenza
like no embarrassments like my
buddy would call me why you do that to me
cannot be a Puerto Rican nigga?
Nah
why you gotta out
Spanish me? I ain't even
Oh you acknowledge the Spanish is white
no
you're just outspanish
you're culturally appropriating
My fucking culture boat
right here. You can't trust these guys. My boy would always
call me Sinbergwenzo when I was living in Spain and he was a
homie out there and it was just because I was like, I would just
do crazy. I was like, I wouldn't care.
I wouldn't care. And still.
Still, still kind of there. These women are
without shame or without embarrassment to an extreme.
Like the girl got her pussy surgeryed up and like just showed the other girls
and like the camera crew and the lights and the audio team is there.
But like they had to blur her pussy. But I
I thought Mormonism is super buttoned up, super image, super perfect.
This is the thing that people get wrong.
They're incredibly sexual just with the person you're married to.
Once you're married, it is divine to be fucking.
Can they do an only fans with their husband?
I think that would be sharing it with other people.
But being into your husband and having crazy sex, but then some of them aren't...
But talking about the slutty shit they're doing with their husband?
That's fine.
because it's not slutty.
It's sex with the man that you love.
I mean, well, talking about the sex with you, the man that you love.
They're way open, like too open.
But then they can't show it publicly.
Nah, they won't show them.
But she's showing a pussy lips on it.
Give it that nose or pussy lips lip.
Yeah, put you on the ride.
Nah, dude, it is.
So it is like, they are just wildly open, catty.
None of them really seem like friends.
But, like, they're connected through this TikTok group.
It's crazy.
Is it worth
like, I don't do reality TV
but is this one worth it?
It's not.
You just watch the clips.
You don't got to get into stories.
Just watch the clips.
Okay.
The clips are worth it.
People send me to good clips
because I don't even know where to start.
I just know that was pretty pebbles.
They throwing accusations on people.
Dude, like,
guys say, yo, I hit and the girl confronts them like,
you didn't hit.
And then like, we never find out.
And then like...
Shifty said some girl fucking wrap the wire
around her dude's neck.
They had to like cancel a little.
season. They got one Shorty. Like today.
Yeah, I think it was, yeah,
this girl. Shout out to,
I think her manager's a fan of the show. Shout out of you.
Oh, fuck. Sorry. My bad.
We want her on.
Bring that little felon on here.
She's, she's, treat it like
an insane assignment, take her shoelaces away.
Shorty is, bat shit.
Shorty is bat shit
crazy. Miles is into the choking
shit, he'll like it.
Also, you know what's funny is we're talking about
He didn't say no
He didn't say it up
When you said she choked him with a phone wire
I went old school like telephone
That's what I thought
What's a phone wire?
Charger
Hallerous
I bet it's a charger
There's no fucking house phones anymore
And she did that to someone on the bachelor
No to her dude
Yeah to her dude
But isn't she on the bachelor
Isn't she the new bachelorette?
I know nothing about this
I just was making a point
Shifty guy, I'll bring it down.
I'm telling you he was breaking the shit down.
Shifty.
Shifty's been gun shy on the camera and the talking.
You're telling him.
You making everybody in this off in gunshot.
Why isn't it me?
You.
They step here, you talk shit, and then they never want to get back in front of the camera.
Damn, bro, I got to get better at that.
Yeah, you do, actually.
I'm just asking about this show he loves.
We got a lot of great people here in the studio, and they're camera shot because of you.
I don't know if they're camera shot because of me.
No.
Like, there might be other reasons.
Nah, you.
You.
Might be wars happening in the world.
No politic.
No politic.
Okay.
What is that?
No politics.
No politics.
Secret lies.
A Mormon-wise pauses season 5 filming due to domestic violence investigation into Taylor, Frankie, Paul, and Dakota, Mortensen.
Damn.
Crazy.
Crazy.
Sucks, bro.
Hey, man.
We want you on the five.
Free Dakota.
Stay up.
Yeah.
Free y'all.
Free Dakota, but we'll take the other bitch.
No, no, Dakota's the guy.
Yeah, he got his neck wrang up.
He's free.
The girl is locked up.
Al, you know how jail works?
I'm just saying,
whenever a guy has to go through that,
I've dated a couple of Latinos.
Charlemagne calls Al a bailiff,
and that shit kills me.
Why do you have to be that?
You bailiff-assed-muff-motherbuck.
What did you cute little bailiff over there?
Weren't you a bailiff?
I was a court officer.
We went through the same fucking...
Big bad bailiff.
The same...
You were the back on the corner.
Same procedure that every police officer has to go through.
Yo, but you were a bailiff about it, bro.
No, I was a court officer.
He was a bailiff.
Shout out to my court officers.
We got some breaking news, too.
What do we got?
Breaking news.
Morocco has been announced as Afcon winners with the final result.
Oh, no return by CIAF.
What is that mean?
Senegal. Why are we happy? What is this?
Because of the Moroccan. Oh, no, go back. Go back. That's right. There was this.
Wait, what happened? I remember this story.
So the Moroccan players were trying to take the towel from the goalies. There's
like some controversy on air.
Yeah. They leave. Senegal leaves. They're like, no, fuck this. We're not doing this. They leave
for 18 minutes. And then they resumed the game. So I assumed that this panel saw that as
forfeiting the match and gave it to Morocco.
So they got rewarded for their fans
trying to rip the towels off the goalies.
Yeah, they got rewarded
because Senegal left the game
in protest for an extended period
during the game is what happened.
But then when they come back,
does Senegal win?
Yes.
You don't want that win.
Wasn't there something else?
You don't want that's a shitty win.
There was something else obscure about the...
Can we bring Dove in about this?
He'll like this.
He don't know what's going on here.
He knows everything.
Is these Moroccan Jews or just Moroccans?
Just Moroccans.
Oh, never mind.
Also, I do want to bring up that every time you guys give me some shine on the pod,
which I really do appreciate, we end up talking about McDonald's.
And I don't want that to be my legacy.
You jumped in on the McDonald's.
Nobody said, hey, McDonald's.
Hey, Miles, how are you thinking about this?
We were talking about cereal, and then I get...
You just light up.
You're like a kid on Christmas Day.
Yeah, you get me all hyped up.
It's like McRibb season.
Look.
we don't care
can we just be honest
we was trying to care
here we were trying to care
about the Moroccan
African Cup
we don't care about the African Cup
Nope
that's not what we care about
No
African Cup
They're gonna put that cup
In their bottom lip
You know
You know
I mean
You know
I know that's not Morocco
I know that's not Morocco
We're going on a different place.
But you know what I'm talking about.
We're just out here riffing.
Yeah.
We're just out of here riffing.
It's like I don't care about the fucking Spanish baseball league going on.
Exactly.
Spanish baseball class.
Yeah, but only people who care about it, Spanish people.
Is Dominicans that care?
Dominicans of Puerto Rico.
That's the only two people that care.
And the Central America and South America.
They love it.
They love it.
Americans love it.
The Italians love it.
Americans, we don't give fuck.
The Japanese love it.
Do they?
The finals tonight.
But Americans don't give fuck.
I heard the coach fucked up.
Like he did something, right?
Can you bring it down?
He thought that they had already advanced into the knockout round.
Yeah.
And they didn't.
So Italy beat them.
And then Italy had to win their next game for the U.S. to advance
or they would have been knocked out of the group stage.
And then they lost.
And then Italy ended up winning.
Yeah.
Which still brought the U.S. into there.
But the U.S. went into it with the assumption after three games that they had automatically qualified.
So he thought they clinched.
So he put the B squad in.
Just to give everybody to play in time.
And then we all the fucking loves.
Yeah, we're not taking this.
Yeah, we're not taking this shit.
We got to lock in, boys.
We got to lock in.
We're playing Venezuela.
All right.
Get on their neck like Taylor Frankie Pohl.

On their neck like a Mormon wife.
