Kayak gets my flight, hotel, and rental car right, so I can tune out travel advice that's just plain wrong.
Bro, Skycoin, way better than points.
Never fly during a Scorpio full moon.
Just tell the manager you'll sue.
Instant room upgrade.
Stop taking bad travel advice.
Start comparing hundreds of sites with kayak and get your trip right.
Bad advice?
You talking to me?
Kayak, got that right.
All right, John South Park is back with a white.
White House horror movie themed episode.
Per usual, I have seen the episode.
You have not?
I have not.
I've very excited.
But you have abstained.
Thank you for that.
So you guys get to enjoy John's reaction in real time.
This week, South Park creators, Trey Parker and Matt Stone,
have included some of the worst ghouls from the Trump administration for the Halloween-themed
event, ones we haven't seen in previous episodes, starting with this guy.
Yes.
Ah, yes, we're paranormal investigators.
We've been asked to come and investigate the mysterious woman.
the hat?
I am Stephen Miller.
Send your advisor to the president for immigration and domestic policy.
Won't you come in?
I will say that...
Look at a photograph, right?
I did not know who that was at first, but that, the way that they did Stephen
Miller there, he looks as old as Stephen Miller.
Like, that's the right age for Stephen Miller.
Yeah.
Oh, by the way, I said an article the other day.
about some Maga Halloween party.
You know the dude who does the proclamations?
Apparently that guy is 39.
It is endemic to the whole administration.
All of these people, none of them look their age.
They all look so much older.
Yes.
Yeah.
But Stephen Miller, he's not the only new character.
We also get to meet these two.
It appears more and more lately.
I can't get away from it.
It's everywhere I go.
Corner.
I'm pretty sure that's your wife, sir.
My wife
It's somehow trying to communicate
Don't worry we won't let anything happen to you
How? Where did Pan Bondi go?
What?
Pam Bondi, she's gone
But she was sitting right here
I'm right here sir
Look it's back
What's back? You've got some shit on your nose again
Oh my god what is going on?
That thing, it's not there anymore
You get it John
She's a brown noser
Yeah, I did get that.
Literal shit on his.
Was that Dan Scavino?
I think it might be Dan Skavino.
It looks like Dan Skavino.
That would be my guess.
But there's never any, like, clarity about who that character is, but it definitely looks like.
Your nose again is so funny.
So these are recurring themes throughout the episode.
Melania haunting the White House, Pam Bondi's nose, just routinely covered in literal shit.
Just to catch listeners up, so on the season so far.
Donald Trump is president.
He is a teeny tiny little penis, which is an important plot driver, as we've learned.
Trump is dating Satan
who is now pregnant with Trump's
demonic butt baby
but vice president
J.D. Vance is conspiring with
noted anti-Christ enthusiast to Peter Thiel
to try and convince Trump to get an abortion.
Right. Last episode ended with
Thiel taking Cartman to Washington
because they think he's critical to some
sort of demonic abortion.
Right, right, right, right. So I'm glad
we cleared that up. Is this the first time we've seen
Melania, right? That's the first time we've seen Melania.
Yeah. That's so far
she's sort of like a ghoulish
just a linker.
which honestly fits.
So, okay, the episode itself starts with Stan Marsh talking to his dad, Randy, about why they had to move out of their house and into their grandfather's retirement home.
Randy Marsh says, he had a cannabis business that I think one belly up, and he says he can't go back to his old job at USGS because of the government shutdown.
Of course.
That's the US Geological Survey, which part of the Interior Department.
Didn't know that.
Didn't know that either.
Makes sense for Colorado.
But either way, the Marsh family financial problems are going to come into play later.
So then the episode takes you to the White House where you see this.
Yes.
Okay, so then over here is where you're going to have the big golden pillars that you guys wanted.
Oh, yeah, that's great.
Okay, and then right over here is where we're going to put your dance floor.
All right.
Wait, dance floor.
I thought we were knocking the east wing down to make room for the nursery.
The what?
The nursery?
You said all this reminds.
was for the baby not to make room for more of your stupid parties.
It's nice, guy.
We can just stick the baby in the bathroom or something.
Wow. Okay, so obviously I have no say in this remodel.
Mr. President, sir, I'm very sorry, but we need to speak with you urgently.
It's a matter of national security.
The Trump faces are just so good.
It's so good.
It's also genius to make the White House remodel about a fight or
over the nursery versus a ballroom.
Satan's just a great character in this,
just a needy, angry.
Kind of like the straight man in the relationship.
Baby mama.
Are you kidding me?
We're not building a nursery.
So funny.
So, okay, so they go to this national security meeting
just to give you a quick plot.
So the Trump aides, they tell him
that they have intelligence
that someone might be trying to stop him
from having a baby,
which we know that JD's in the meeting.
He's like sweating bullets.
this is the first time in that meeting we see the shit on Pambonty's nose.
So Stephen Miller tells the assembled group in the Oval Office briefing that the demolition
of the East Wing might have unleashed some sort of evil spirit or paranormal activity into
the White House.
So after the meeting, we see J.D. Vance calling Peter Thiel, telling them like they're
onto our plan.
And we see that Thiel has Cartman sedated in a hotel room outside D.C. for some reason.
But we don't really get a lot of clarity on that.
So then they cut back to the South Park kids who announced their building.
an online movement about how South Park sucks now.
So they start like a Facebook page or something.
Overnight, it gets 750,000 likes.
I think this is just like a meta-commentary
about how people are saying South Park sucks now
because it's all about politics.
Oh, wow.
Incorporated in the show, which is very funny.
So this is, though, John, what they do
with the South Park Sucks online community.
Hey, guys, if you've come here,
then you're likely joining the chorus of voices
that's fed up with the direction our town is going.

That's so good.
How perfect is just the tone of the bullshit?
I just, I forgot they hadn't done crypto yet.
They've really hit everything this season.
They are...
And they just, the authentic way they capture the marketing community focus, like, hype bullshit around crypto is so good.
Also, just a very simple and easy to understand explanation.
It's just like, buy the corn for $9.95.
Maybe it'll be more.
Who knows?
Who knows?
That is really, if someone didn't know anything about crypto, you'd be like, that is the best I'm way.
Yeah.
And if Elon Musk tweets about it and likes Doge for some reason, maybe it'll go to the moon.
Okay, so a lot of the plot is driven by Trump feeling haunted in the White House.
There's kind of like this horror movie feel and aesthetic to it, which leads you to scenes like this one.
I just like, the gratuitous showing of the teeny tiny penis when it's not necessary to the plotline at all is the best thing.
I feel like there was no reason to include that clip.
Just a close-up of the teeny tiny penis.
The way the soap kind of like drips off it is so funny and the music and the cut to like the shower head.
Yeah, I read somewhere that Melania might be a parody of the conjuring or the ring or some other Japanese horror movie.
I wouldn't know because I cannot watch those things.
No, that's a little hitchcock, I guess.
Yeah, that's right.
You're in the shower.
So I've heard again, I don't watch those either.
Dude, the soap run.
And then poor Towley.
For those who know, Towley is a character first appeared in South Park in 2001.
It was literally a towel that would walk in when the kids were playing video games.
He'd like, you want to get high?
And he's persisted.
It was like kind of a meta-comitory on the commercialization of the character.
And now he's back in the season.
He managed to be rubbing on the teeny tiny penis.
Rubbed on Trump's tells.
Tough for him.
Just incredible, poor Talley.
Okay.
So the boys do a Zoom with Kyle's cousin on the East Coast, who becomes their crypto advisor.
Okay.
And here they kind of lay out the plan for the future of this cryptocurrency.
All right.
Looks like we've got a lot of movement on your coin boys.
The pre-sale really popped.
We cleared a hundred grand in volume before liquidity even locked.
The tokens really got traction.
And we don't ever have to pay.
anything, right? Nope, you never pay anything. You guys created the coin, so all you do is profit from it.
See, I told you.
That's a good answer, dude.
Now we just need to keep creating hype around the South Park sucks now digital coin.
So we need to come up with things to give people FOMO and make them ape even harder.
You guys, this isn't about a coin. It's about a movement.
Oh, that's really good.
Yeah, yeah, that's perfect.
This isn't about a coin, it's about a movement.
Yeah, that's some saddi jujitsu right there.
So what kind of time frame are we looking at to get our money?
I need it as fast as possible.
Well, I think we're looking at a company.
classic rug pull in just a few days.
Once we pump the coin high as it'll go, then I can register for an MSB with the federal government.
The federal government, that sounds hard.
Oh, no, it's going to be easy.
The crypto corruption at the White House is off the chain.
We're going to screw a lot of people out of that money, boys.
It's going to be fantastic.
Again, just perfect explanation.
You get people to run around trying to these explainers on what the corruption is,
these long New York Times pieces.
Really, you just need to watch that.
No, you just need that kid, who I do feel uncomfortable laughing at that character.
It's some problematic parts of it.
But yes, they definitely nail the bullshit hype, the marketing language, and the government corruption.
I mean, just it's a movement.
It's a movement. It's a movement.
That's what it is. That's what we're dealing with.
To facilitate their movement.
So they want to pump and dump the coin, but they need some sort of like green light from the government.
So Kyle's cousin gets a meeting with Donald Trump Jr. at the White House.
Here's how it goes.
I'm with the South Park sucks now cryptocurrency.
We're trying to fuck a bunch of people out of it.
that money is don't mean oh yes he's been expecting you do come in
oh geez he's a mommy no no that's just the head of the FCC he's
freedom of speech don junior is this way
Thanks so much for taking my meeting Don Jr. We've got an incredible crypto opportunity here and we just need your help taking a big dump
That's really great. There's nothing I like better than a big crypto dump
So sorry I had to bug you this late in the evening, but time really is of the S&T
We need everyone to gather in the dining room immediately
In the dining room why we are going to have a seance. It's time to confront the spirit here
I just love
I love a crypto dope
I love that their take on Don Jr.
is that he's just like this grinning two-dimensional
idiot.
And it was a good one because there's been a lot of people
there's been a lot of takes on Don Jr.
So it's hard to come up with a new one,
but that's pretty good.
Just a fucking one.
I would watch a whole episode just about Stephen Miller.
Oh, I would too.
Yeah, that character is really great
and it just fits so perfectly with the horror theme
of the lurch kind of, like the lurch.
Yeah, perfect.
And then Brendan Carrond.
For those who we don't remember, I forget how he lost his freedom of speech.
They pushed him down the, oh, he fell down the stairs.
He got toxoplasmosis.
Oh, and then that too.
As a part of the abortion.
Yeah, he got hit a few times, right?
Oh, no, no, no, no.
He didn't fall down the stairs.
Or did he?
No, he fell down the stairs.
So Trump was trying to facilitate an abortion with Satan by making Satan fall down the stairs,
but Brendan Carr fell and then wanted Satan to get toxoplasmosis for the kitty litter.
but it landed on his ass.
Right, right, right.
He had a tough go at it.
He had a tough go at it.
So good.
Okay, so as you saw there,
Pam Bondi summons them all
of the dining room where they're hosting a seance
to finally speak to this spirit
that has been haunting the West Wing
and the sort of like conclusion
that brings all these storylines together.
Let's watch.
To the entity in this house.
Is this a good time to talk turkey?
I just need to go over some quick business.
We know you are sad.
We know you are...
Lonely, but we don't ask you to leave our president alone.
Oh my god, this is really scary.
The president is a great man, and he does not deserve to be tormented like this.
We only wish to communicate...
Oh, deception, deception!
Maybe we should stop this.
No, I want to hear what it has to say.
say.
Oh, Epstein.
No, nope, you're right.
Let's stop this.
You.
Beat lies.
Oh, you fucking beat.
There's so much in there.
J.D. Vance is like a tattoo from Fantasy Island, which is a show none of us have seen,
but we've all seen the character.
Oh, my God.
That's so good.
Hey boss, maybe we should stop this.
And he's like, no one here.
Epstein.
I love that.
The Epstein thing is so good.
Just Melani in the corner.
Pam Bondi being the medium.
It's so good.
Just channeling.
So the way this thing, the way this ends.
Oh yeah, by the way, earlier in the episode, we learned that whatever the stuff is on Bondi's face is called rectoplasm.
Fucking gross.
Kind of a mid-joke.
Okay.
So the seance ends with the,
the Kyle's cousin, the crypto kid, thinking that her shouting corruption is about him.
And so he, like, kind of like unveils the, he confesses the crypto scheme.
And so, like, J.D. Vance kind of gets away with it.
And he gives this long speech about how, like, crypto's a fraud in a Ponzi scheme or whatever.
It's funny.
But then it leads to this, which is sort of like one of the final scenes of the episode.
A massive crypto fraud has been exposed at the White House.
and the perpetrator has been indicted.
A ghostly wrath that was unleashed in the East Wing
exposed the traitor at a seance last night.
The trader is now behind bars
and serving 10 years for fraud.
Charges, of course, were once again filed
by Pam Bondi.
Who said?
We will continue to indict anyone
who says bad stuff about our amazing president.
So there you go, John.
I want to make that picture of my avatar.
Absolutely covered in shit.
Really good.
Yeah.
That's not the first brown nose joke, I feel.
I feel like there's been someone else in this season with shit on their nose.
So I don't think there was physical shit, but there was the one when everyone was going up to the Oval Office to have meetings with him.
Like Tim Cook provides him like the bobble.
Yeah.
And the Qataris come and they provide the airplane.
So they've been on this sort of theme, but this was this was Pam Bondi's intro to the season.
Fantastic.
It's so good. I love that like they just are like if you're mean to Trump, Pam's going to throw you in president.
I'm also now very invested in the storyline because I want to find out what happens to J.D. Vance at the end here. And of course, the bud baby. Yes, me too. Yeah. So the episode ends with them kind of zooming out on the hotel. It's kind of like a shining motif. Yeah. And you just see her like kind of looming in a window. But we don't know what happened to Cartman and Peter Thiel. J.D. Vance seems to have gotten away with whatever you're trying to get away with. But that butt baby's coming. And as we know, J.D. Vance is worried.
as they always say, that but baby's coming,
which is something we often talk about on Potsie of America.
All the time.
And as you recall, Trey Parker and Matt Stone got paid, I think, $1.5 billion.
Boy, was that a good...
For the show.
They got the best deal in 2025.
In the history of the decade.
Yeah.
Yeah, except for...
A lot of money, and they get to just make fun of the administration
as much as anyone.
Just the best.
It's the best.
Thank you, South Park.
