i need a good podcast i need someone to listen to because i've had to give up some of them because you have a conscience guess what we also have one too yeah and we're here for you we're here we've got many thoughts and opinions on many different subjects so if you want news entertainment politics tv show recommendations gossip like we cover it all we're basically like e-news or like the network e okay that's what i meant i said e-news but i meant i was like that's a specific segment of one of those yeah i meant e yeah but i do think he covers pretty much everything i just said though so maybe i do just mean e-news i did teach with them mots what the soup was last night he didn't he's like what's that i feel like he

would be obsessed i literally was like the soup is like quite literally like your personality in a show yes and i he started what he's like oh i get why you'd say that i was like yeah this is like this is your on a joe mccall kick now yeah i just can't get into community i i never could i've tried because i love him but i just can't yeah i've had a hard time getting into it and you know that i've been a fan of the soup since it was talk soup and uh aisha tyler was the host of it an icon an absolute fucking icon uh also i saw on wikipedia which i never really made the connection but it's very true that the soup popularized reaction videos and i was like oh yeah like that was like the first maybe they should have trademarked it oh my god the way i

will never get over that like there's a couple things i'll never get over the fine brothers trying to trademark the word react is fucking insane to me um the founder of uh merit beauty posting a voter's guide which is by the way this is a makeup brand a makeup brand posting a voter's guide which is like a pro rick caruso republican thing and then be like no i just i care about other people I just basically I just don't want to have to pay for I don't want to pay taxes of my four million dollar home I will never forget about that every time I see anyone talk about

her makeup I'm like hello no no no and what else there's a lot of things that I just I can't let anyone live in peace with it did you see I sent it to you but you didn't respond to it so I don't know if you actually watched it I know but did you see

the video I sent you with Mario Lopez no please watch it I hate that man. I know. And I feel like this will be great for you. I just, yeah, I hate that man. And if anyone wants to know why,

it's because he was rude to me one time. But also like he has essay allegations against him. And this woman is currently like in the last two days, she works at NBC and she's like, I'm using NBC's Wi-Fi to file my lawsuit against Mario Lopez. And she's on TikTok doing it. Love that.

love that for her yeah he's just like there's some people when you meet when like when they are rude like because there's other people who i've met who like weren't like friendly and like that's fine but like when you know that like someone is going out of their way and like taking time out of their day like the way that this man didn't he could have just moved on with this that like he took the time to like try and make me feel bad like just go out of that i was like okay you are like you're enjoying being a dick on purpose and you're going to take time out of your day to ensure that you know that I know that you are being an asshole to me do what I mean versus like someone who's just a little more like you know like oh they didn't spend much time

talking or whatever I was like I didn't want to keep talking to this motherfucker leave me alone meanie so and he looks plastic I would like to say though I think he's the first person who got the lindsey lohan chris jenner and i think he had it in about 2013 like whatever he did to his face at that time it was not skin yeah it was shiny cold hard just like regina george's monologue what is this or no katie herons shiny hard plastic a piece for you a piece for you your hair looks like it took hours which by the way her hair did not look like it took hours what are you talking in mean girls i don't know a piece for gretchen wieners you know this but at the end when she gives it to a girl who has like that up to looks beautiful it must have taken

hours it doesn't look like it took hours that to me i was like okay don't be mean it felt shady but she had been gone she doesn't know how long it actually takes to do hair do you mean she she was in a rural village in africa is that what you mean because she doesn't know how she don't know how long it takes to do white people's hair because if she saw this on a black person it would have taken hours sure i just don't think that she thought there's any similarities between that white woman and the black woman she would have seen with that she just thinks it's hair well she doesn't see color that's what that's katie heron you heard it first canonically katie heron yeah and i feel like for her it's okay to say no yeah she means it and also because it's true

maybe she's colorblind maybe it's a little bit true so anyways welcome to uh uh but am i wrong and if you uh don't know what this podcast is welcome hello hi we gave you a rundown like we talk about a lot of shit we we we all forms of gossip and fun things but we have three different segments we will explain each one before we get into it but what you need to know is we want you to participate so you can participate in many different ways you can submit things that we ask for so you know you can write in for different different segments we will explain all of those before them so you're not overwhelmed with information but overall the best way to participate is voting in who you think was wrong in each segment on this episode so we do stories

on our instagram we put them in a little highlight as well and they are polls and you vote this person was wrong this person was not wrong and then write in respond write in just reply to the story why you voted the way you did your thoughts your feelings and i will say as of late we have had people who we've like talked about that their writings and then they've given us an update by the time that we do our tuesday episode which is see you next tuesday where we read the results of the previous episode so sometimes we'll have like questions about like how did this go down or an update with something pop culture related and by the time we have that we're recording that we've got another update there for you so it's a grand old good old time all right so shall we get into

our first segment yes we shall this segment is but am i wrong that's when we pick something in our lives that we may be wrong about or rant or anything that we just think needs to be discussed more and then we vote on if we're wrong or not in this situation and Megan you're up first today mine is uh I would say uh a plea to people it is also what I think should be started as a movement it should be a phone a friend tell them this today and let's take one step forward and in short it is men please don't be creepy and here's the thing creepy has motivation creepy also has a complete lack of thought a complete lack of regard and this is a story that i almost even told you on two yesterday i think we were recording i almost told you yesterday but

i was like no i'm gonna save this for this because like i don't think i'm wrong about this at all but it made me like when i talked to moss about this afterwards he's like what do you want to do about this I was like I just want you to know that like this can happen and just be aware of this and so like don't participate in this unknowingly because people participate in it knowingly and unknowingly and this is so I was taking a walk around the neighborhood and I've been trying to get better at like not walking at like the same time in the same area and like I cannot stress enough how safe of a fucking area I live in like I live in an incredibly safe neighborhood we know all of our neighbors like we know every like I see all the same people

like there are people who take walks at the same time every day I never don't run into a couple neighbors that I talk to like it is and it's like a it's a small area so I try and be cognizant of that and like I never walk when the sun is like down or I don't even like to walk when the sun's going down to the point where like it's kind of it's too high to be in your sun shield so like I don't want to get hit by a car like I'm deeply fucking aware of this of just like the safety in regards to like cars as well as like people i don't wear headphones when i want to walk and this is like not like victim blaming or like person taking about personal responsibility at all it's just like i want to stress like how how aware i am and how that's not un-fucking-common

like a lot of women are so i don't wear headphones like i like listen to things like on my phone not very loud but like out loud so like whatever and anytime there is like a car coming from behind me i always stop look at them and wait for them to pass i don't like keep walking with my back to the car as the car is back behind me i grew up on a hill and i walked up and down that hill it's just like it's this car safety thing too don't keep walking if you can see a car and you're not sure if they can see you so that's like what i always do and i have like run into like neighbors and stuff who like i have been like far away like male neighbors who've been far away who like i've not like smiled at and then when they got closer I'm like oh my god hi I'm sorry I didn't realize

it was you and that's fine like I wasn't personally offended by that at all but as I was on my walk I was there was a lot of other people out on walk so I wasn't like feeling any type of way about it but then this car pulled like was driving and so I did what I do I stop and I wait I like turned to look for them waiting for them to go and he just stayed in the car and stared at me and I was like waiting waiting waiting and then the person who was on the street at the same time as me had cross. But now there's another person with a big dog who I know. And I was like, OK, they're on the opposite side of the street, but I see them around a lot. I'll I'll keep walking. And so but I'm walking slow as fucking hell. And finally, a car comes up behind this car and then they start

driving. But they're driving the slowest you've ever seen a car drive fucking ever, like so slow and gets the stop sign. And it's like as if they're waiting for me to turn, decide what way I'm going for them to go. And I'm like, I'm not fucking going anywhere. I'm like, you pick your fucking thing, turn down a street. I go down a different street that I don't normally go down within like two minutes suddenly the car is there again oh no and I was like okay you know maybe they're a delivery driver and they're lost like something whatever and I'm just like and again I'm with there's lots of other people on the street there's people and their kids and stuff and I'm talking to them and so the car is like driving slow but like a little bit ahead of me

now and I'm just really taking my sweet ass fucking time and uh then they pass again because another car comes up behind them they have to go a little faster and then it happens another time after that a similar thing happens and then a fourth time it happens and i'm like and now i notice that i'm on the driver's side and their windows roll down and they're just staring at me as they're driving so fucking slow and i'm like now i'm not gonna look at you because no i know i'm not gonna look at you i've already had a look of what you look like i'm not gonna look at you and I'm like deeply uncomfortable and I see that they have like pulled over behind another car that's like it's a big car this car they're driving they pull over behind another car

that's also big but I'm like I can still fucking see you and at this point the sun's not like starting to go down but like it is the time where like I've now taken a two detour so I'm on a much longer walk than I would have and I would have already wanted to be back inside and so I'm so close to our house like i am like right there and i'm like but you also don't want them to know where you live yeah and so an amazon truck comes and then this car has to move from where they are and then i see them move and i just see him go right into the corner turn around the corner so it's a blind spot where i as a pedestrian would walk and then suddenly it's just right there and it's a minivan and i'm like no i'm not doing that yeah and i almost had said something to this guy

who I don't know but like he lives in the neighborhood and he if I had to pick a white man that I didn't know to be like hey I'm a little creeped out I would I would he's he's someone I would have felt comfortable saying that to but I was like should I just walk across like should I just like whatever I can like text my neighbors and like if something and I was like no Megan you're feeling safe enough to be like I can just make this like like literally it's a half a block I can make that really quick because I can text my neighbors something and I was like no Megan you feel safe to do that because of your neighbors so utilize that ahead of time so i turned back around and i texted in a group chat with my the neighbors i'm closest to minus months because i

didn't want him to freak out and then if he's calling me and i'm like well i don't want to be on my phone i want to be like aware and i texted saying is anyone home and could meet me on this certain street uh before our street i'm probably being paranoid but there's a guy in a white van who kept quote-unquote happening to be near me my whole walk and they all know that i take walks around this time they all like you know i see them in their windows waving when i get home to like make sure i'm okay and so they all say yeah they're what i say avengers assemble one of them they have their dogs one of them golf literally just walk in it just be like looking around and i like heard them before i even saw them and the car has like is still where it is and now by the

time that i've rounded the corner they all are there before i am which was very nice and helpful another neighbor came out and was like when you know we're all just like talking and being very casual about it and like one of the one of the guys who came down was like asking like hey who you know what does it look like what's a person like let's and i'm point and i basically indicated it was that minivan and it was you know this guy who looked like that but i was like i don't know you know i don't know and all the women were like yeah no like even if it was just a delivery driver whatever and so he was out of the car at this point and like walking around like holding something that like it didn't look like a delivery but it didn't like not look like a delivery and

he was like on the phone but then it also looked like he was like taking a video but we think he was like facetiming and then another neighbor came out was like oh i'm pretty sure it's that guy who lives in that house there and like i understand being a nosy neighbor i understand if you there's someone in your neighborhood you like have not seen before if you are a man and you are in a minivan and your response to being nosy or even just, oh, I'm going to drive around in the car talking on the phone. If there's even a logical explanation of this whatsoever, you need to know that you are creeping other people out.

Even if it's a completely innocent thing, because I initially, one of the guys was like, I bet it's a delivery driver. And the other, I was like, I'm pretty sure that's a guy who lives there. And I was like, I don't like that as much. And the other guy was like, yeah, I think that's worse. Like that's, that's fucking weirder. mean that he probably has seen you before and it feels like he's following you around well and i've never seen this person before and like i'm not even sure if someone lives in that house like

full time or like whatever and like i could totally understand being like being nosy and being interested but like as a man you do not get to be nosy in a fucking van driving slowly when you see that and so what i told mas i was like and like the whole thing for everybody tell tell the local men in your life yeah cross the street if you see a woman walking down the street alone walk the other direction do something like that the way that like literally the week before I was like oh my god this guy is like this this is the complete opposite man with a stroller big ass stroller like one of those expensive heavy fucking ones he sees me walking down the street and he like pause waits for me to go and like picks the other direction so he's not going the

same way as me and that is I am not I'm right now automatically in general I'm a man with a stroller a man with like a operating heavy machinery I'm like yeah there's there's something you gotta maneuver this is this is to me is not my number one threat in this situation and even that I was like you're going to go up a hill with a stroller so you know that you're not gonna just to make sure I don't feel uncomfortable and like my gay guy friends do that too of being like making sure that like I don't want anyone to think that I'm following them or anything and it's like it's not a matter of like oh I think that because you are a man you are being creepy or whatever but like this is could be you are doing the exact same behavior of someone who is creepy yeah so do not

do that be like be deeply aware of that and like Matsu he's like that's a really good point he's like I you know at night I like always make sure that I if I'm like accidentally look like I'm following someone he's like I'll take a wrong turn and do something like that or if I'm like walking alone at night and there's someone like a woman walking on like I yeah I steer so clear but he was like I don't think I'm as cognizant of that in the daytime that he's like but I'm without a doubt going to do that because like that's fucking stressful like that is just fucking weird and I just I just wish more fucking people thought about that because like all the women who I called to like came they were like oh yeah I've done this so many times like so many times I'm so

and they were all like so glad that I texted them and I felt so happy and so great because like I did not have this relationship with other neighbors i've never had this relationship with neighbors where i could be like hey and they all came within last neighbors were scary that's what i was fucking afraid of those who you were afraid of i don't want to catch her on a fucking alleyway and like so they like showed up so quickly but like even the guys were like oh i didn't realize like how that could be like like creepy like did he say something i was like no but i just and like the women were like no you just know like you notice like you notice when there is a car like that and like we go out of our way to make sure other people don't feel

uncomfortable and that you'll be so lovely if if men did that and like if that sometimes means yeah you can't drive around your neighborhood aimlessly sometimes that means you you can't be as nosy sometimes it means like you just have to do it a little bit fucking differently you gotta have a plan yes and just like don't freak people out and then when you can clearly tell that i am getting like freaked out that oh my god I'm so sorry like retreat into all of that because I will never be that person who's like oh it was totally harmless I'm reading too much into it so therefore I'm going to change my actions I'm always going to treat you like you are a creep if you are acting like a creep and to be fair I'm I'm going to treat most people that I run into most men I run into on

the street as being a creep until proven otherwise so just assume that you are going to be treated like a creep so do not act do not act like a creep right agree yeah all right we're gonna take a break when we get back we'll get into mine this episode is brought to you by Accenture when your advertising operations fall out of sync Everything else follows.

we are back it is time for yours take it away all right well i want to start by playing a short audio clip that i'm sure that everyone listening will recognize if you kick every latino out of this country then who is going to be cleaning your toilet donald trump oh that's in the sense that you know what i mean like what i'm saying there's more there's more jobs to be In LA, I'm addicted to the reactions of the entire, it's like a Wendy Williams audience. Oh. So that was Kelly Osbourne, if you were unfamiliar,

speaking on The View nearly a decade ago, August 4th, 2015. And if you heard those gasps and oohs and aahs, you heard the immediate public reaction to a sentiment that was and remains deeply problematic. Today, I want to talk about something crucial. the language we use, the narratives we perpetuate, and the urgent need to recognize the full humanity of every individual. First, let's start here. If you find yourself shocked and appalled by the actions and rhetoric of certain political figures, particularly Donald Trump, when it comes to

immigration, I have to tell you you haven't been paying attention. For decades, he has been explicitly stating his intentions, laying out precisely what his plan was to do. His words have consistently foreshadowed his actions and there is no surprise, only a continuation of a long-held publicly declared agenda. Now let's pivot for a second and perhaps more insidious point. All too often in an attempt to defend immigrants, we hear well-meaning but ultimately damaging rhetoric Statements like, they're picking up the immigrants who stand outside the Home Depot, or they're the ones picking our fruits and vegetables, or they're the ones building our houses, or taking care of our kids.

Even seemingly positive assertions like, they contribute significantly to the economy and pay taxes, can be framed incorrectly and fall short. Here's why this is so critical. When you go around repeating this kind of language, You sound exactly like Kelly Osbourne in that clip. And frankly, you deserve to be booed too. Immigrants and more specifically, brown Latinos, who are the ones disproportionately targeted

in the current climate, are not defined solely by their service jobs. They are not merely economic units or interchangeable laborers. Latinos are people. They are complex individuals with dreams, families, talents, and inherit dignity. They deserve respect, period. Seeking asylum or coming to this country for a better life is not illegal. Undocumented people are not less than. They are human beings, point blank, period.

Moreover, by repeating this sentiment, by reducing immigrants to their perceived utility, you inadvertently play right into the very hands of those who seek to dehumanize them. Do you remember doing the debate around this time last year when Donald Trump uttered this line? They're taking black jobs and they're taking Hispanic jobs and you haven't seen it yet, but you're going to see something that's going to be worse in our history. So I asked you, what exactly is a black job or Hispanic job? These are not real categories. This is divisive, dehumanizing language designed to pit communities against each other and strip individuals of their unique identities. In truth, the targeting of

detention we're witnessing doesn't just affect blue collar or domestic workers. It impacts college professors, people here on vacations, foster care children. The list tragically goes on and on. At the end of the day, these actions are about detaining human beings and brutally separating families. Anyone who fits the profile of who thinks is inhumane become a target. So let's be vigilant. Let's be conscious. Let's not contribute to this dehumanizing language, even inadvertently. Let us instead stand for the full, unwavering recognition of humanity in every single person regardless of their origin their job or their status beautifully said beautifully said and i've seen like a counter point to that of people being like we are also like the there's

like a it's an insane amount of like a huge percentage of college students in general are first generation like kids of first their their parents they are first generation immigrants right but also yes but also first generation college students yeah but specifically it within that of just not just people who are like first person to go to college who are whose parents were born in the u.s but like there's a like a huge majority of like people who have something like most fucking degrees are first generation immigrants and i agree with you in the sense of like that is without a doubt also very important but like i also care about immigrants who like didn't go to college like i also care like all of that thing so like it's there's the this aspect

of like manual labor of being like look what they do for you and then being like well on the other side look at this high achieving sort of thing and it's like those are they're all valued without a doubt the fucking same and like with with anything like i do not care what you do i don't care what you contribute i don't care what you provide like you are a human i am also a human and like it is yeah you you you know how i feel in general and that's part of one of the things i'll get into later about people's feelings towards animals over humans and like specifically the last couple years with like the natural disasters just to see the rhetoric around these random fucking animals versus how people talk about other humans and they're like find your compassion for these

animals i'm like oh my god you don't even have compassion like what you don't have compassion for the person next door you don't have compassion for your neighbors like you and then you go on and then complain about a lack of community and i'm like that's what fucking happens like what the fuck do you mean and it's just it's yeah it's it's disheartening and there's a lot of people who have like the right sort of like feeling but like you said like there's a time and a place when people want to say undocumented immigrants don't pay taxes you can say no actually they do pay taxes but being like don't deport them we need their money right no no you're not wrong at all i would also just like love to give us a shout out for a second and our audience i hope you all

are feeling a little bit cocky and confident now there's all this discourse online about non californians learning about gavin newsom and we've taught you all about him so long we've been talking about him for years so you already knew that he has a two-week cycle of absolute menace devil horrible person and then hot daddy that you're like thank you so much took the hair behind the ear and i've just been seeing this online being like oh my god finally learning about gavin newsom and i just hope all of you listen to this podcast like see those videos and you smirk to yourself saying i already knew about this i already knew about this hot demon our next segment is but are you wrong and this is where you write in with your predicament the thing you want to know if

you're wrong about to but am i wrong pod at gmail.com you can also fill out the form that is in our social bios it's also listed in the description notes for the podcast and we need to know how old you are the rest of it is anonymous but give us good information and you have 300 words to do it and that's it if it's not 300 words try again yep you can write into the email write a dm write in the form but regardless of how you write it you have 300 words if you're like but it's a but i can keep typing we can't keep reading our eyes closed after 300 and i've sent people messages they haven't shortened so i guess they've moved on and i promise you can get what you need to get you need to you can say what you need to say in 300 words okay am i wrong for

not letting a student re-submit their paper. I'm going to tell you right now, I'm already thinking you're wrong, mostly because I was this student, but maybe for different reasons. So let's see. I, 29, a female, I'm a graduate student instructor teaching a 20-person seminar course for college freshmen. For context, one of the two final papers was due last week and required the use of in-text citations and a reference page. Today, I messaged students reminding them to sign up for conferences with me for paper two one student freshman one student a freshman male messaged me that he would set up the conference and explaining that he fell on and then broke his computer and that for paper one all of his references were bookmarked on said computer

he asked for a chance to resubmit but my policy is that students must email me at least one day before the deadline if they foresee needing an extension i've always granted them and i try to be approachable if students need help i also show the students how to use a free online citation manager in my class. Oh, and noted on his rough draft that he had no references. And I have a link in my syllabus on how to check out loaner laptops from the university library. He says he did not foresee falling on his laptop, but it feels like more of a poor planning issue since he lost points on having no reference in his rough draft feedback that I released a week before the final paper number one was due. I advised him to turn in an already late deliverable for paper two,

which I extended it to be due by end of day with no point off for lateness, and then make a meeting to get maximum points since both are part of the grade also the excuse was very creative is it so wild that it might not actually be a lie should i have given him another chance i have thoughts do you not bookmark i didn't go to college all the way do you not bookmark like on a google like could it not be in like a login thing about to say if he was using any browser and signed into that browser then those bookmarks are saved so google chrome whatever other browsers are out there you usually at this point have to be signed into that browser meaning you can access those bookmarks from any other computer that you're signed that you can sign on to from your phone

from uh if you have a tablet anything that you're signed into those bookmarks are going to be there so i think that this is not a valid excuse but for me since that since it he turned in the paper but just didn't have the references i would have given him an extension for that because the paper was done the paper itself was done the references just weren't turned in right yeah i guess i'm trying to figure out the difference between paper one and paper two oh he's just dealing with paper one okay i also i guess it depends on like what it like your note taking if he like took all of his notes on line and like he like did it in a document that wasn't sick like he didn't have a cloud saved or like anything like that I could understand but like at the end of the day like

you could search based on the facts and reverse reference like find the references that way I would think yeah but I could understand like you falling on your laptop and freaking out your first thought isn't like let me go check out this other computer it's like let me try to solve this issue if this actually happened yeah uh to me it is a crazy enough as someone who has like made up every fucking excuse for like late stuff but also who has had like crazy fucking freak things happen to me it is way too easily of a provable this didn't happen sort of a thing to like not to not buy it so like i would ask for proof but i also think that like if it's a it's a one day extent like he's a freshman one day extension I think it's like okay well you have to do the

reference paper like pages if he's basically now being like well now that I have this first one if he's trying to just like just do paper number two because he feels like he lost time that I would be like well I am going to deduct you for not having a reference page because like you didn't you didn't do that but I think if like a one day two day extension has him get in everything that he needs to get done and like the work is great then I think that like I don't think it should be like oh I won't accept the work but I think if you deduct I don't know if it's like you only give you give a one-day extension without any point deductions and he needs a three-day extension and you deduct a couple points for the second and third day I think

that's totally fine but I think if someone's willing to do the work and not just have the excuse of why they couldn't do the work and then why they can't indefinitely do the work then i think that like yeah don't don't accept incomplete work because all they have to do is as you were pointing out is take the paper where he quoted things referenced it copy and paste it put it in quotations google that and then use that source to use that free online thing i think this should take no more than 30 minutes to do. Yeah, because it also in-text citations. Yeah. So I'm

like, that is like direct quotes. It should be in your work as it is. Yeah. So. Oh, wait, so already late deliverable for paper two. The writer is still giving them a chance to turn in paper two

a little bit late without any point deductions. So, like, can he not just turn it all in at the same time because one's late if they're coming at the same time but i think this is something that you should ask proof for show me that your laptop's broken well i think like if you want if you don't want any points docked off for tardiness and this is truly an act of god similar to insurance have to show me that otherwise i'll take your late paper it's just going to be doctor cup like this x amount of points because because it's late but

if you do the work then do that but i think in general i don't know if i was a teacher i think i'd be more likely to take late work than unfinished work and because with late work that still shows that you comprehended what the lesson is unfinished work i don't know what your final thoughts are totally and as someone who has like a better lesson for me as someone who like would be more inclined to just like give up like a better lesson for me is like you can have an extension but you have to finish it that's a much better lesson like life lesson to me than like oh well if you didn't finish it you're not going to get credit for it so like you turn in what you have and i'm not going to accept it after this time period like that is

i don't also think it helps you be resourceful and like resilient in a way that like i think it's effective because a lot of resilience is built in like not undesirable circumstances and situations but this is one that i think is actually constructive so um yeah but in general in if something happened like i would say that like believe people are telling the truth as someone who again freak things happen if they they tell you if they hand you an email in the middle of the night not necessarily the night before it's due but it could be the night but like something where it's like this is not within school hours but if it's like oh my laptop broke yesterday and your first thought wasn't to find a way to email your teacher that to me i would be

like yeah no that's not yeah so i don't think that you were on like i don't think you should mess i think your your policy is giving him enough there's enough wiggle room in there as someone who like struggles with completing tasks and like who also as someone who like really struggled with school but i think a a day before like that's even sometimes more generous than workout classes let you for canceling yeah all right uh we're gonna take a break when we get back we'll get into the next one Your playlist might get you through the workday, but have you ever wondered how your ancestors spent theirs?

Time for your pick. me 18 she her and my friend had tickets for a concert this is less than three weeks away now after i messaged her asking her what she was planning on wearing she said that she will probably do what she usually does and decide the week before she then said uh you're low-key gonna hate me but i kind of don't want to go to summertime ball anymore i'm sorry what's summertime ball who's playing yeah let me see let me see because that's gonna that's gonna change

everything if it's like Machine Gun Kelly I don't want to go either oh no I want to go to this Mariah Carey Will Smith Benson Boone yeah Lola Young what's KSI gonna do there Renee Zara Lawson right McFly I'm there on Will Smith DJ Jazzy Jeff and Mariah Carey alone okay yeah I'm pissed so now we've decided who the concert is for summertime anymore I'm so sorry I know you're going to hate me. Like I've been thinking about it for ages and have been meaning to mention it. I feel bad because it's on Father's Day and no one's going to be here with my dad. But that's not the only reason. Whenever I think about going, I feel sick, all caps. And I've been in such a weird mood these past couple of months and I just don't want to go. I can sell you the other ticket

and you can still go with someone else or I can just like sell them both. IDK, let me know. But I'm sorry. Please don't hate me. I then ignore the message because I didn't know what to say. So just said IDK, what you expect me to say, because I'm going to seem like a bitch if I say anything. A little backstory that's needed is that just this week she has gone to two concerts. So I don't get how this mood affects ours in two to three weeks time, but didn't affect those as well as her having a concert the week after ours was in which she's not canceling i also feel upset that it wasn't mentioned until i said anything i also feel guilty for feeling this way because i should be understanding but another part is just pretty upset about the whole situation

am i in the wrong for being annoyed at her over this maybe she just really hates benson boone and i feel like that's a valid reason and if if she said i just can't be in the same room as benson boone i can't see that motherfucker flip like i will i will scream my body will combust like it's making me it's i'm having i'm having hives a physical reaction my body i would go that understandable understandable and then he always after he flips he always adjusts his little leotard and i don't want to see that by the way remember when i yelled at you for that was my first introduction to him Benson Moon came up

what was it on the timeline it was something no it was during the Grammys that it was the first time I had ever seen him I had never heard of him before and Melissa said something incredibly innocuous of being like oh that guy's got a nice voice and I said shut it down and that was my first impression and I and it is

my prerogative to change and then anytime we were with anybody else who not even in our presence but had previously historically said anything slightly positive about benson moon melissa would go ask megan what she thinks about benson moon and then i've converted everybody and everyone you're right he does have rancid vibes yeah and a lot of people feel the same way yeah again that was the very first i had heard that song on tiktok never seen him and that was my first impression of him yeah i and i now i think i

don't think there's any but i think there's a lot of people who are like i don't think that he's the worst and then when he released the moonbeam ice cream they were like oh this this is irredeemable and maybe she bought the tickets before the moonbeam ice cream and then was like i can't hear moonbeam ice cream in fucking wembley stadium that's that's that's an act against that's a that's a crime against humanity but in the big picture yeah i think that she's wrong because she's gone to all these other concerts yeah no i have lots of questions and then continuing to go to more concerts and she's had if she's had these thoughts for months and feels sick about this i don't think it's this concert she how is she in other realms of your friendship has she been there

do you do you guys hang out on a regular basis yeah is it like the length of this concert like the timeline like is it like how you have to get there is it like the fact that it's like a whole day sort of a thing is that it's outdoor like what are any of those other factors because like i'm someone who i love to make plans i also really love to cancel plans like and i do not get mad when a friend texts me and says you know what i no longer want to go but that's smaller plans i feel like this is a big plan well and for me i'm like i'm big on canceling but like i'm more likely to prematurely cancel and then be able to do like have the energy to do it the next day and like I will soft cancel things like a week ahead of time being like hey I don't

versus I get it I'm like if someone wants to cancel like when you're like an hour late to something I'm just like so I'm cool with can't but like we could have done this yesterday and like and I could have been in bed instead of having a full face of makeup on and clothes because chances are i also wanted to cancel but like for example today well yesterday i said megan do you want to record in person and i said i said can i can i make a game and i saw that can i make a game time decision and i said i'm perfectly fine and then you said i'm gonna stop you right there i would actually prefer if we did virtual and i said perfect and i could already see it on your face yes but like i again like i'm someone who like i'm going to give myself a

bigger buffer because i don't want to like i i would rather under underbook myself and like overbook myself or overextend in that like situation like i'd rather like prematurely cancel something or reschedule something because i'm like okay i don't think i'm gonna if i'm stressed about this now i'm gonna be so much more stressed about it later on but like you gotta do that the second that that feeling strikes and that feeling hits you not waiting along for it and then i specifically again as somebody who's fine with people fucking canceling because i cancel all the time i have a i get really fucking annoyed when i reach out to someone about something and then there's the you know i've been thinking about this for a while and i go are you fucking

kidding like i i just talk about it i spit i verbalize how i feel in the moment and like you've been sitting on these feelings and not saying anything and and i had to bring it up in order to get to this conclusion like that's not fair right i also don't like that she's just coming up with every excuse in the fucking book which tells me that you have no excuse no actually no actual excuse she's lying so let's say like for cowboy carter if megan would have canceled on me i would have been mad no i actually wouldn't have been mad i would have been like okay because there were two other people going yes if it was just the two of us it would have been a different her story totally i would and i feel like and the fact that she wants you to buy the ticket from her

too pisses me off no and then it's like then it's your responsibility to find someone else to buy it from you at this point you should just give me the ticket for free yes that would be the only redeemable thing but asking or asking your friend to buy something where you're canceling last minute that's a bitch-ass move well i also think like a valid excuse is being like hey you know i I realized that my dad's gonna be alone on father's day and like it's just like the guilt is kind of like eating me up and like writer you don't have to answer this kind of rhetorical question but like do you have a dad like is that like a unique situation that they are in that you are not also in because like if I had booked that with someone who like we had a similar situation

I would have been like what do you do like how are you rescheduling father's day like I'm feeling guilty like are you feeling guilt like I would be like let's talk this through together in this but Like, that is not a unique excuse. It is a fine excuse. If you're, like, if you're, if it's just, like, well, he's going to be alone. And, like, you know, you, Ryder, if you've got a father-like figure in your life, they're not going to be alone on Father's Day, whatever. I can understand that that could be an excuse.

But, like, say, that needs to be weeks ago. Right. And say it. And, again, they said they've been feeling this way for months. Were the tickets, like, crazy expensive? Because I could understand if, like, spending a lot of money on them and then being, like, i'm feeling sick about the cost but then you just don't offload that to a friend no yeah no i think i find this like incredibly inconsiderate yeah and i wouldn't have responded

either i would have like not known what to say the same way yeah so i would be re-evaluating this friendship as a whole yeah yeah me me too there's something about people being very okay with wasting your money for like their own decision making about something that you are excited like something that you are all doing but then it's like okay suddenly now i'm i'm in the i'm paid for this and now i don't get to have this experience because why like huh it's not fair but you should still go and see if there's another like anyone else and also like it sounds like it's kind of like a bigger thing like do you know anybody else who might be in a different section that you could like swap like sell a ticket like something like that like it could be yeah

but i'd be annoyed this would change my friendship for foreseeable future until something else changed yep all right we're gonna take a break and when we get back we'll get into but are they wrong Thank you.

Having a parasocial relationship, I think, with another human online is...

I get that. I don't understand having a parasocial relationship with children online. That? Predatory. Weird. Really fucking weird. I've had to cuss a few people out online about Blue Ivy. No. Like, by the way, Blue Ivy is strict.

Her mother is strict. You're gonna... Why? The idea that, like, for a fun... Something to get likes? And I go... she sees everything you think you're gonna say something you're gonna say something fucking weird and then you think that's gonna be taken as like oh sweet no no you're a stranger on the internet it's gonna be taken as it is weird weird do you also see that she said little debbie's name like a bunch of times at the show what you get it's not even her real name no i know i when i

realized that when someone commented that and i was like shit what is her name i told you remember no because i said bougie brown came up with it and then she changed everything about her internet persona like that put her on the map yep i have fully don't even know what her name is i forgot i knew it because i was following her before she changed it but i don't think she cares she's like no no this is who i am you motherfuckers anyways uh this is from all of this sparked from a dog who was fostered and is now with their owners at their new home and the dog's name is tiki and tiki was fostered by uh isabella clee who is like pretty big on socials and stuff really like for fostering dogs and people have like fallen in love with a lot of the dogs that she's fostered

she fosters a lot of like high medical needs like very like difficult case ones and like essentially like dogs that if they're not able to be rehabbed with her or someone who is at like her level of fostering and rehabbing of dogs like they will most likely be like medically euthanized it's just it is this she's very good at this is what she's done she's done this for years and years and she's also like has a i don't know if her book is out but she's got a whole book that's like i think her memoir is like written through the dog like through the eyes of the dogs that she has fostered over the years which i'm like that's a really smart and interesting way to do that so she like lets people come along to this and she works like very close hand in hand with

uh the rescues and the rescue that she works with is uh muddy paws and she's in new york and so people follow her they've like fallen in love with like multiple fosters that she's had and like you know she has to give them up and she documents like she did like day 41 with tiki like she does all of this stuff she shares all of this stuff with people and she she respects like the privacy of like the specific like dog's history and like all of this stuff like she's very very good at this and very like measured with this and i will say she's like yeah she's one of the few animal people that i can follow that i'm like i don't think that she would ever say abandon your family and take the cat off the side of the road like she's a very rational

and like clearly intentional person with this so she her like latest dog who's the one who like got the went the most viral and again she's had a bunch of these that have gone like very very viral she's very well known but the one that went so viral was this dog tiki and tiki was like the highest needs foster that she has ever had and it was like really not looking good that like he was not going to be able to be adopted and that he's like all of this stuff it was just he like wasn't eating so like it was like he's not going to survive this because like he's just he's completely shut down and through her hard work in like 41 days which by the way is a long time to fucking foster and i think like people are like skewed in the sense because like a lot of and she like

made a video talking about this, but like a lot of rescues have put up these like completely like ridiculous and like not beneficial or like science backed barriers being like you have to have, you have to own a home

to adopt one of our dogs. You have to have a fenced in backyard. You have to live in a nice neighborhood and like all these things. Like, so it has people skewed the idea of what fostering is supposed to be because a lot of people

now foster dogs for way longer than like is like scientifically backed. You don't want the dog to then be so attached that they can't go to another place. All of this stuff. So it was already a relatively long foster and they had over 500 applications and the rescue, like, you know, they go through and they pick them and she did a video like, and she, you know,

Tiki got Tiki's new family and every, and one of the questions she had asked was like, you know, a lot of people would love for, to know, just to keep up with Tiki. Like, would you ever be open to like having a social media account? And she was like, I, I don't know. I'm not like really big on i don't really do socials aren't really big on tiktok but like you know if that's like i yeah maybe but like was not like gung-ho on it does not have a personal account after begging from all these people the people who adopted tiki made an account and now there are fucking people making think pieces and might i say monetized think pieces about how it feels like these people are clout chasing tiki tiki is a tiki is a dog you think people they're like they should have

had multiple home visits like they should have like i just feel like this is like these people are just trying to get famous and like this feels like they're really just this is like really usey and then they start using the terminology just like i'm just really sad that isabel rehomed the dog that's not rehoming that was not her dog that was never her dog i'm sorry what like what and now the owners after after people begged them to make a fucking account where they could follow tiki's progress because again like you want to and I learned all this from Isabel's video but like it is it's like rehab like you want like there are steps you have to implement after like you are not like a dog is not fully quote-unquote cure like she's like the dog's always going to

be a skittish dog dog's always going to be an anxious dog like this is it is about how we deal with this but like the dog has come out of like Tiki's come out of his shell exponentially more in like three days it took like like three and a half weeks for Tiki to get to that level with and she's like yeah it so clearly worked this is the right time this is the time that like they want you to again science back research based this is the time that you have the dog out and there are milestones that dogs need to reach before they can be adopted like they're pulling into credibility the rescue of like they didn't vet these people all of this kind of shit and these owners are now getting hate on social media when they only made a fucking account because

people begged them to yeah this is fucking weird it's fucking weird and they're like they're just used they're just trying to use him for money and on cloud and i go with this monetized video that you made about this about your parasocial relationship with a fucking dog the only animal that i ever liked on tiktok was curious george george the monkey that was somebody's pet and it was really i liked more of the owner's personality and how he interacted with george and when george died i did shed a tear but it didn't disrupt my day and i wasn't making think pieces on how they could have done something better to keep george alive because that's none of my business and i don't even know how or why george died but he was a monkey i don't know and i i also think

like objectively in like the current event that we're in right now like to have these people like be like i actually need to make a multi-part think piece on a on a dog who got adopted and like how this is inhumane and i'm like that right now in in current events that's that's what you think is the most inhumane thing that you need to talk about and monitor like yeah it just like makes me irate because it pulls into question like it pulls the integrity of the fucking rescue organization the obviously the people who adopted him and then also like i can't imagine the pressure and stress that isabel feels because they're not putting blame on her they're basically saying that she rehomed the dog but like you are putting into question like her responsibility

but then also she's the one who like platformed this rescue she's the one who like because she platform this dog that now these owners are getting hate like she probably feels a fuck ton of responsibility for all this hate that people are sending and if these people love this dog so much why didn't they adopt it themselves and it's like they wanted her to keep the dog and it's like that's not how fostering works how fostering works fostering is a bridge until they find a forever home and it takes a lot of heart and compassion to even be a foster parent because you take care and love on this animal and then give it away because that's what fostering is yes and like the whole thing of like she's done this so many times and people have fallen in love

and i'm like by the way if she kept every animal that you want her to keep you never would have met this one you never would have met this one never this one and like it's just yeah all this compassion for an animal while simultaneously talking so much shit on all of these fucking humans that like this whole like performance of caring to me i just find like so disingenuous and like so fucked up and this like if you truly want to do this whole like you know like i just like animals more than people then don't engage with people like then they don't make it anybody else's fucking problem and then don't tear the humans down by the means of like this animal and like she made the point she was like nobody loves this dog more than me like none of you none of you

fucking love this dog more than me like so to come on here and essentially say that like she made the wrong choice about this and like she shouldn't have done this and like this is just so disappointing to see and like these people feel like clout chasers like she's already increasing the eyes on this specific rescue and these dogs getting adopted she's like it's like a fucking commercial for these dogs and they make these dogs hit 500 applications and now people are gonna be like i don't really want to adopt a dog that's online because people are getting fucking weird about that shit yeah so that's mine don't be fucking weird mine is and this came across my burner tiktok oh because there's no way that it would have came across my

regular tiktok in the way that it did oh because my burner tiktok is only curated for one thing and one thing only and that thing also is connected to Simone so I don't even know why I got this Riley's video first who's just complaining complaining complaining and I'm like what is this even about I look through the comment and everybody's like Simone Biles is canceled I've lost all respect for Simone Biles and I said oh I'm on the wrong side of fucking TikTok. I got to get out of here quickly, quickly held it down, not interested, went and found Simone's videos and just like them, like them so that I could make my algorithm better. So in case you don't know what happened, I want to address this conversation that has garnered significant

attention and touches on the heart of fairness, inclusivity and empathy in sports. It involves one prominent athlete and one former NCAA swimmer, the swimmer being Riley Gaines and the prominent athlete being Simone Biles. Not just athlete, athlete of all athletes, greatest of all time, has been voted upon by many athletes themselves as and not even in her same sport that she is the greatest athlete of all time. They recently had an exchange on social media that brought into a sharp focus the debate surrounding transgender women athletes in sports riley has become a vocal advocate for banning transgender women from competing in women's sports a position that she frequently reiterates i'm learning i'd never heard of this one before

her activism notably and i used activism very lightly notably escalated following the 2022 NCAA championship where she tied for fifth place. Again, fifth place. No one really recognizes that even as a place. If you don't come in first, second, or third,

no one cares. You might get a ribbon. Participation. And that's a participation ribbon. It's not even for fifth place. Nope. So she tied for fifth place with a transgender swimmer in the 200 meter freestyle. and then Gaines publicly stated that she felt cheated betrayed and violated by this experience

and this sentiment while some believe that it's understandable from her perspective is the foundation of her broader campaign against the inclusion of transgender women in women's sports she has even presented at the White House when executive order was signed to exclude transgender girls and women from competing in women's sports. However, Simone Biles, a seven time Olympic gold medalist and a powerful voice for mental health awareness, offered a profoundly different perspective. She challenged Gaines' approach as not only as unproductive, but harmful. and she initially called gaines truly sick and a straight-up sore loser referencing that 2022 tie and then um simone later apologized i think that she was forced by someone to apologize

for her personal attack and acknowledge the complexity of the issue at the core gains his action remained critical because she's targeting children and transgender athletes the inciting incident for this feud was gaines post mocking a high school girls softball team with a transgender player claiming the team won because their star player is a boy and then simone vehemently condemned this stating that singling out children for public scrutiny is unacceptable Children, she argued, should never be the focus of criticism of a flawed system they have no control over. And this highlights the key points of their diversion in ideas. Simone has been a consistent advocate for mental health and lends weight to her stance.

She understands the immense pressure that athletes face and the importance of a supportive environment. She told Gang, no one in sport is safe with you around. She is also not just not talking about physical competition. She is addressing the psychological safety of athletes, particularly those from marginalized communities. Simone suggests that instead of bullying, the focus should be on uplifting the trans community and finding a way to make sports inclusive or creating a new avenue for trans people to feel safe in their own sport. So Riley's position, I guess, is rooted in personal experience of being a loser, often manifests exclusionary while Simone's point can devolve into the public shaming of young athletes.

her quote unquote activism appears to be driven by a singular focus on banning rather than engaging in the complex work of making an equitable and inclusive framework. I just, again, had never heard of this person. Maybe I did in passing, but they did not make a blip on my radar until this happened. And I think that her perspective calls for empathy, respect, and a commitment to finding solutions rather than diminishing any member of the athletic community Riley's approach in contrast risks fostering a culture of division and resentment I agree wholeheartedly and you I'm I'm just so happy for you that you didn't even know who she was until this moment thank you thank you so much what and also if I hadn't been on my burner wouldn't even sit I did see a video

simone just like on a pj laughing and i didn't know what it was in reference to so out of context i was just like okay love to see a girl love to see my girl smiling yeah but it was in reference yeah love that for you girl no um she riley gains is who was that other person that i like never told oh it was andrew tate that you didn't know about yeah for a like a long while and then I refuse to corrupt you everyone's like you're not gonna tell Melissa I was like no she's living such a lovely blessed life like why would I and then when you were like finally learned about that guy I was like no Riley Gaines is another one up there like just like imagine being such a such a loser and like to me there's also a little bit of a humiliation kink because like fifth place yeah

like tied for fifth tied for fifth and you're actually gonna like quit your athletic career and like campaign on the fact that like you should have been fourth place or you shouldn't have tied with anyone for for fifth like it's just like i actually probably wouldn't repeat like or like make sure the whole world knows that like i i'm like a subpar trying to be a elite athlete it's just and also like specifically for a sport that actually how you can go to the olympics was it was it fourth place or was it fifth and sixth place no she i think if she technically tied for fifth yeah so that so they would have been fifth and sixth place yeah yeah but like again it's even worse so it's not even fourth place it's even worse like and again like swimming is like

one of those sports that i'm like katie ledecky makes a lot of money like there are like you can become that's one of like the usa's like favorite sports to root for in the olympics and like there's not a professional swimmer outside of that like there's not like a WNBA for swimming so like there are people who are quite literally living their life being famous and making money off of being a swimmer and like so you actually if you were good but like this is so embarrassing it's such a like tenth of a second type of thing like you were fast but not fast enough no you're faster than most people and you should have just been happy with that no she's like so so fucking weird and she like quite literally retired to like go on like donald trump's like

campaign trail and like stand up there with him like she's just like really fucking weird and it's it i have to say like someone said i would feel unsafe around her like her obsession with um a lot of kids in college are underage her obsession with their genitalia it's it's very it's very it's very spooky it's very unsettling and as as you know fate would have it she has an incredibly punctual faith yeah yeah yeah oh her original plan was to become a dentist mine too i was about to say uh-oh you can really get something going she she's big against spiritual warfare which really just tells me you are your own biggest op like you're just not very good yeah and that's from some bitch

who can hardly swim oh you're saying hardly now no that's something that you can keep your head above water for an unknown amount of time and i'm not trying to find out how long right right right i keep watching that fucking video of that woman being attacked by the sea lion scary i don't know that was a horror film i don't know how you could watch it over and over again because i keep having nightmares that somehow we're going to end up in that situation we'll never even be in that situation like first of all you have to get on a boat not doing that we have to have up close and close and personal with animals where they can touch us i don't even want a haunted house where they can touch me i've seen seals and sea lions i don't i know that they

are different animals but they look the same much just bigger than the other walruses all in the same whoa okay yeah but no walrus no one is big tusks yeah but they still if you take away the tusk well sure evolution okay yeah yeah they're all banana slugs if you want to say take away an elephant's tusk it still looks like an elephant you know what i mean well everything in the ocean kind of evolved to the lower but yeah they they came from that same cell but all those animals they like to fight i've seen them climb onto like a whole beach and just take over the beach why would i swim to them what you need to know is animals without opposable thumbs animals who have those tiny little fins and big bodies those they want to absolutely crush you like they have

so much anger issues because just imagine how annoyed you get when like your arm gets like stuck in your sweater and you're trying to do all that they have so much pent-up rage and aggression and all they have is they're all torso they're all core and you know how they say pilates core of course most important part they can absolutely fucking wreck you and also like they're not friendly and like i think in general like sea animals that look like again the same body but the body type not not to generalize that we're talking about like dolphins not to body shame but dolphins are take away dolphins fins and they're push their nose in same same and marine biologists will say you bitches have been duped dolphins are the meanest fucking animals in the

world they like kill other animals for sport for fun don't even eat that they just go bye literal absolutely what they do yeah they kill you and then they laugh and then they and then they're picturing is your face and there's an inch enclosure waiting to absolutely backhand you so the fact that this woman got on a boat to go on an excursion to see the sea lions and they're literally in her face and by the way where are the other humans i feel like they sent them out too far yeah i can't stop watching that tiktok though i'm so afraid it's gonna happen to me and i i know that i have to get on a boat like i know that like there are i can't just end up in that situation but it is becoming my irrational fear like it is becoming an irrational fear that

i'm just gonna have it's gonna happen to me no because you won't be in that situation no i'm so glad she had a life vest on though yeah i would have drowned and they would have laughed at me but they probably have a deeper one like a that's what they sound like though i know that's why i made that noise phenomenal thank you they do all sound like they're mocking now that we yes yeah it's just a lower decibel of mocking wow anyone wants to see that i'm sure you can maybe just look up see i don't know but that shit i didn't even make it through the whole video the fact that she added the like scary fucking music i didn't have the noise oh no she was she's a comedian she's she's funny well that's our episode thank you so much for listening remember
