Starting point is 00:00:00 UFC command in the sport world. So PKN episode 152, we were just talking about McGregor and yeah, so... On the show? I was saying how like every, it's insane how no matter what news stories are out there, no matter like if there's an attack somewhere or whatever, if Mayweather and McGregor come up, it is immediately like, like the top story on Twitter, Facebook, everywhere. And I was saying I don't follow boxing or UFC nearly as much as these two, but it is pretty ridiculous that even compared to basketball, NFL,
Starting point is 00:00:34 aside from Super Bowl, it just skyrockets in popularity. Every single story. I think Conor's bigger than Mayweather. I think his sports name right now at this moment. I mean, you could talk about legendary careers or whatever, like historical placement at this current moment. But as far as names in sports, names to hit the media and get the most attention out of the average person,
Starting point is 00:00:57 Connor owns an entire country. You know why I think Kyle's right? Because Mayweather was bigger when he fought like the mayweather pacquiao fight pacquiao fight i feel like and that was delayed by many years true but there were two people on that card who were big and it was and like kyle said the build-up was for years and years conor mcgregor could fight me and it would be a big story he doesn't need anyone on the B side to make it big. He changes bum lives, right? You know, when he fought Alvarez, I guess Alvarez was the champ. But, you know, he didn't bring the audience.
Starting point is 00:01:34 I've only heard of Alvarez because he got matched up with Conor McGregor. I only know who most of these people are because it'll be Conor McGregor. Is he going to fight X? Is he going to fight Y? It's like I have no idea who X and Y are. No, I think that's true in the world of UFC because UFC is its own niche thing. But Mayweather's a big name. I think whether it's A or B side, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:01:54 I think Conor's probably more A as far as media attention, but Floyd may be more A as far as pay-per-view buys for this particular fight because his people think he's going to beat this guy to death. It could go either way. But as far as media attention, recognition, Conor McGregor's huge right now. He transcends all sports.
Starting point is 00:02:14 And I think it's going to be a really fun fight to watch. I'm looking forward to it. So when are they doing the first press conference? That's this week in LA. That's the first one. Today? Tomorrow? Yeah. Right now it says, Conor McGregor brutally trolls Floyd Mayweather at presser before promising an early KO.
Starting point is 00:02:31 That's awesome. That's so good. I don't want to spoil that. Don't spoil it anymore because I'm going to go watch that as soon as we're done with the show here. Okay. But one thing that I know that leading up to this, there was talk because Floyd usually shows up literally,
Starting point is 00:02:42 not joking, an hour and a half late to his press conferences, right? Like he makes this dramatic entrance at the end. And Conor's been known to do the same shit. There's been a fight before where his opponent's like, I'm just going to leave. Whenever my opponent shows up, y'all can talk to him. And then Conor strolls in and makes the guy sit down and stuff. So I really want to see this press conference and see how that went. Did you see that Floyd is in tax trouble? Not really trouble, but he's appealing to the IRS for an extension on his 2015 taxes, I think, until he gets this upcoming payday.
Starting point is 00:03:12 That ties into something I've been saying, that Floyd's not as rich as he says he is. He spends $8 million a day, apparently. That can't be true. That can't be true. I know that so much. That's what he has to do to meet his money now. I kept repeating this thing. Like when you schedule a second private plane to carry your luggage, you run out of money, right?
Starting point is 00:03:32 Will Smith was huge and ran out of money before Prince of Bel-Air. He spent all that parents don't understand rat money. It was gone. He took his – I didn't know that. It's true. Keep in mind he's in trouble with the IRS though, right? So he made like 200 – whatever he made in 2015, like $200 million, right?
Starting point is 00:03:49 That's the year he fought Pacquiao. He probably owes $95 million in taxes or something like that off that, something awful. And I bet he spent all $200 million on minks and different Rolls Royces and tiger food or something. I have no facts. I just made it up in my head he didn't pay all his taxes. I don't think he failed to file. I didn't hear that he did. No, he's filing for an extension on the payment for his 2015 taxes
Starting point is 00:04:14 that the exact verbiage is that he's got a big payday coming up. Revenue event or something. Yeah, revenue event. No one said he didn't pay 2015 taxes. They're saying he got audited for 2015, as if he underpaid his taxes. So he maybe tried to get a little cute in 2015. It sounded to me like he was making payments
Starting point is 00:04:32 on 2015 taxes. It seems like people with that much money who have that kind of income, they're not sitting there with TurboTax, like, oh, well, he can't read. But if he could, he wouldn't be sitting there with TurboTax going like, oh, I can write this off. I can write that off like i imagine those people go into one of the big four accounting firms and then one of those accounting firms it seems like like they
Starting point is 00:04:52 have a vested interest in like not fucking up you know like they don't want anybody coming and ruining their what is like price waterhouse or whatever the names of all of them are like that that's kind of true right what do you like it seems like these people who are that rich like they're handing everything off to someone else which is what i never understood about the tax like fraud at that level is like like how how do you think you're going to get away with it well they they're what it is is oftentimes the law is not defined enough you know like oh you have to pay taxes on u.S. income. Aha! Well, this tax came over the Internet. So, you know, we didn't fight here. We didn't do this.
Starting point is 00:05:29 Like, you know, they make it out to be not U.S. income. Like, that's a thing that happens a lot. This was actually Cayman Islands income. Because he's probably not fighting every fight in the USA. And so he's... I don't know exactly. But what I'm saying is they often find a way to restructure it or try to get a little cute to make it so that it's, you know, like he's the guy.
Starting point is 00:06:05 He cut all the middlemen out. That's the interesting thing about Floyd Mayweather is he didn't want to be another Mike Tyson who got robbed, blind, and then, of course, wasted the rest on tigers and planes. But he might. But we'll see. I think he's prepared himself better than Mike Tyson ever did. He's certainly in a much better position than that. He's not. I don't see tigers, I see cars
Starting point is 00:06:27 And like our last guest suggested Most cars could be loners and stuff Yeah, and the minks could be loners On Connor's side and stuff You don't know, but I think Mayweather's spending a lot of money Are you guys both Still on the Like I'm wondering if your opinions changed
Starting point is 00:06:42 Because I remember from earlier I think, earlier, I think Woody, you were saying that McGregor had a good chance overall. Did I say that? Okay. That's what I'm trying to clarify, because I don't remember if I'm just imposing that or what I thought. It just depends on a good chance of what though, right?
Starting point is 00:06:57 Of winning. I'm talking about of winning. Every expert says McGregor has no chance. He's a huge underdog. The thing is, there's not a lot of money to be made betting against Conor McGregor. no chance. He's a huge underdog. The thing is there's not a lot of money to be made betting against Conor McGregor. The guy wins all the time, with the exception of the first DS fight. He always wins. He wins.
Starting point is 00:07:14 Wins. And every time he goes, you're like, well, Jose Aldo's been champ for 10 years. This guy's lethal. This guy kicks. He always wins at UFC fights. It's not like you're following Conor McGregor around. He's like, perfect. Like everywhere he goes, he's just sinking basketball shots. He's just rolling dice, flipping water bottles. He's fucking like, just everyone's turning around like he's in an open sex store. He gets like a perfect skee-ball store.
Starting point is 00:07:36 Pending tickets to kids. He's real good at beating people up within his particular discipline of expertise. You'll do nothing. That's four 100s in a row. You couldn't catch it. You got three balls left, Mayweather. You can't come back. I bet he's like, people like that have to be so frustrating to play little piddling games with because their mind is just so competitive.
Starting point is 00:07:59 I win. I win. Just playing someone like that in Magic the Gathering. When I was teaching Kyle to play magic when Kyle Would beat me like we were in Colorado. He knew that it wasn't because he you know rused me into like a huge thing It was cuz like you know I'm teaching him how to play if you were Conor McGregor You'd have been like oh, this fellow's teaching me the game already beat him anybody else here trying to teach me I'm already past this level. Now I'm not playing
Starting point is 00:08:25 you again. I'm one and all. Give me your belt. Give me your belt. I don't care if it's from Kors. Give it to me. That's funny. He doesn't buckle it. He ties it. I really hope... I hope Connor wins. If Mayweather wins, are all the experts predicting,
Starting point is 00:08:47 oh, it's going to be a round nine attrition victory, or are people saying there's going to be a knockout via Mayweather? They think that Mayweather will do anything he chooses to do, and that somewhere in the third to fifth round, he knocked Conor out, and that's all he has left. I want Conor's strategy this whole time to be to get punched in the top of the head and break Mayweather's hands by like round five
Starting point is 00:09:09 I saw that in a movie maybe Conor saw that same movie because that seems like his best course of action if he could make that happen by some some fluke so there's a lot of things against Floyd right I think that's where you gotta start is like let's start counting things that gets
Starting point is 00:09:27 Floyd before we start actually owning up to the fact that it seems like boxing is some sort it is like mathematics or something and and that every additional hour to that 10,000 hours you actually do get better and Mayweather seems like he's this special kind of human being that's really mastered that thing so it doesn't seem like Connor who's an amateur in comparison, can step in there and beat him. But Floyd's much older. Floyd hasn't finished anyone in years. He hasn't had a professional fight in years.
Starting point is 00:09:55 He hasn't looked great in his last fight. He's not dominating or anything. It's not like he destroyed Pacquiao. He has those brittle hands. And I didn't know about that until fairly recently. I guess it's probably not something he wants talked about a lot, but his hands break a lot And what else right see shorter? He's a smaller man time between reach like that's a big thing in boxing I think Connor has the reach for sure Connor's five foot nine
Starting point is 00:10:19 And but but he has much longer arms than a five foot nine Yeah, the arms of a 6' guy. He goes up two weight classes and says, my arms are as long as that guy. Yeah, I think me and Connor have about the same wingspan. Connor's wingspan is 74 inches. Mayweather's reach is 72 inches. Also, height matters.
Starting point is 00:10:44 If your wingspan is the same, yet i'm punching down and you're punching up i have the reach advantage so not only it says that mcgregor it says mcgregor's only an inch taller is that one of those athlete athlete things where mayweather's like oh yeah i'm five eight and it's like ah you're five six buddy howard stern used to do this thing so howard stern i think is six five", but he's a true 6'5". He'd have these 6'8 basketball players on, and he's like, 6'8? Why are we the same height?
Starting point is 00:11:12 They're like, what? No, man. Their contracts ride on this. A lot matters on this fake height. They're very invested. I got a sign-in bonus for that extra inch, you bastard. Shut the fuck up, Howard. Why are there cameras in here anyway? It's the radio.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Where's Bobbin? Howard Stern has a real Slenderman build about him. He's eerily lanky. So if you don't know, if he gets any kind of flab on him at all, it looks really bad because of that lanky frame. He needs to be rocking almost a six-pack to even look okay with with that look he and he has one a lot of the time he's very slender he's on a ridiculous diet where he's like yeah i had some uh a little brown rice and then there was some some steamed
Starting point is 00:11:56 fish and then i went to bed six packs on skinny guys are like six packs on skinny guys are like big tits on fat girls it doesn doesn't count. It does count. It does. It does not count. I disagree. I've heard that line many times, but I feel like a guy with a six-pack, now I'll admit, obviously a strong guy with a six-pack is in a whole other league, but if you have a six-pack, you need to be pretty skinny to not have a decent body.
Starting point is 00:12:22 That geek, you know, in every movie who in every movie who hooks up with the cool girl and they turn him into a cool guy, all he was was a skinny guy with a six-pack. Suddenly you put him in a button-down shirt and fix his hair, and he's hot. You don't have to be too far away. If you've got a six-pack, you're doing okay. When I see a guy at a pool
Starting point is 00:12:44 who has no arm or shoulder or back definition, but they have that, like, I haven't eaten since Thursday belly, like, two more days of light eating, and they'll be going from six-pack to emaciated Kenya belly. Do you remember when Connor was calling Nate Diaz skinny fat? Yeah. He does look a little skinny fat, but not the kind of skinny fat I would want to fuck with. I'm going to tear your skinny fat body apart all long and lanky and disgusting.
Starting point is 00:13:12 He's saying this like CNN. He's talking about this guy's skinny fat body, and Nate Diaz is there with a speech impediment. He's like, if you fight, you fight. If you fight, you fight. Connor, at 170, said he didn't like it. He didn't have abs. If I could look like Connor at 170, I would do this show shirtless. You'd never see a shirt on me again.
Starting point is 00:13:31 He looks ferocious at 145. He looks ferocious. Emaciated a little, but in a scary way. His eyes are all sunken in. He's just like, ah. God, he's damn scary. He's got like a train spotting look. Very, very emaciated. just like, ah, and you're like, God, he's damn. He looks scary. He's got like a train spotting look. Like, you don't know what's going on.
Starting point is 00:13:46 I'm on the same page as Taylor with the, like, the way he described it, hasn't eaten since Thursday, too thin. Yeah, yeah, that guy does not have a good body. But, you know, I feel like there are a lot of things. I mean, if your biceps are bigger than your wrists and you have abs, you probably have a decent body. You know, you got to be pretty thin to not have that. Yeah, if you're pretty thin,
Starting point is 00:14:06 it's probably. So 202 was my Thursday weight, and I'm not sure. I'm still 202. I'm not sure I'm going to be 201 for Thursday. I'm hoping on PKA I can say I lost another pound. I've lost a pound or two almost every week, and this week, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:23 It's Tuesday. I weigh the same thing as Thursday. I ate a whole pecan pie this week i don't know it's tuesday way the same thing as thursday i ate i ate a whole pecan pie this week and and it was everything that i thought it would be and more um every slice i would microwave for about 15 seconds and then put a little dollop of vanilla ice cream on there um so i gained one pound i'm at 171.6 pounds right now. That is so light. I loved that pecan pie so much. It's delicious. I got it off Amazon.
Starting point is 00:14:52 It's pecan pie in a jar. If you like pecan pie, I strongly recommend it. I was just surprised that you live in pecan country in Georgia there, and you went the Amazon route. Because I think they're like georgia pecans you know stuffed in a jar from washington all the sugary goo and stuff like it's the whole pecan pie in a jar and you just dump it in the pie crust and then well i think you add eggs yeah i added eggs and and you bake it and that's pretty low effort yeah yeah exactly yeah exactly precisely i was gonna order on Amazon for Prime Day
Starting point is 00:15:26 a candle making kit because I think that kind of stuff is fun. Kind of just make some candles and then as I was going to click and buy it, I'm like, what's wrong with you? Are you going to start an Etsy store? What are you?
Starting point is 00:15:41 Are you some fucking maniac? You're going to come up with excuses as people come over what do you have 60 candles going oh i'm uh wiccan now hey that could be the answer for the pig hunt right like like hear me out here we go and we we shoot some pigs we render the fat into tallow we make our own wild boar soap and there's like a silhouette of a wild boar tusks on the on every bar right done what do we call it wild boar soap i don't know i mean i mean i mean this is oh we can try and sell it to whole foods clean or somewhere like that mud it'll be all natural 100 organic like the bear boar like b-a-r-e because bear is a great word for people like
Starting point is 00:16:23 in the whole foods market because like oh bear, oh, bear. That means there's no preservatives in it, right? I don't know. It's $9. There's a bullet in mine. There's a bullet in it. No, that's an exfoliating bead, you dumb boar. Yeah, the copper it wards off cancer.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Yeah, you want that in there. It's so much pork fat, it just puts your body instantly into a state of ketosis. I've been pretty good on diet. I've been very good on kettlebells, and I've been really active, but yeah, just haven't lost a pound this week. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:16:56 I'm down one. I'm at 204 now, and I'm bummed out that I can't work out this week again because it's scarring up right now. Right, right. So, like, all the pieces are growing back together mostly. You rub some vitamin E on there. I'm rubbing a – I have some, like, Nivea lotion that you're supposed to, like, rub into it once it's 100% sealed up to get rid of scars.
Starting point is 00:17:22 But I'm not really worried about that as much. I just don't want it to be one of those scar tissues that, like, pops all the time. And you're just always dealing with that. But it's bumming me so much more than I thought. What did you say? Mederma? M-E-D-E-R-M-A for scars. I've heard of that.
Starting point is 00:17:37 I'm going to get some when it heals up. Yeah, it works really well. I'm so much more bummed out about not being able to work out than I thought I would be. Like, I always, when people were like, oh, yeah, I, you know, when we were doing hockey workouts or something, someone was like, yeah, I kind of tweaked my ankle. Like, I can't work out this week. It was always like, oh, lucky. Like, you don't have to go to training and do all this.
Starting point is 00:17:59 Like, now it's like, oh, god damn it. Like, I was on such a good click, a good pace with this. And now I missed two weeks, and I'm not taking up my week calendar anymore because I'm not giving myself credit for not doing it. I was – Yeah, I'm excited. When I was sick, it was like two weeks ago. I was sick. I missed two workouts, I think. But two workouts was a week because I do Monday, Wednesday, Friday.
Starting point is 00:18:20 I went from Monday to Monday. I'm like, are you really sick? Are you faking sick? How sick are you? Can you do your kettlebell? Could you have done maybe half a workout? Could you have done that? It took me a while to forgive myself. You're probably right. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:18:35 They say that stuff and I don't know. They talk about when your body's healing and stuff. Maybe it's not good for it. It sounds like you're super motivated though. If you've got that where you feel that guilty if you don't get your workout in, you're in the zone then. I didn't admit it
Starting point is 00:18:52 broadly, but when I first started out, five push-ups was a thing for me. If I did 10, they weren't good form. Now I knock out 25 in good form. It might be time to add more. You get fast so quickly. Did you try a pull-up from the start and now try again i did because that's a big difference because like you're gaining strength as you're losing
Starting point is 00:19:14 weight and so it's like you're doubling up on your strength difference even like four weeks later you're like holy shit i can do five more now i was gonna say just the 18 pounds different would help a lot like if i put in you know 18 pounds worth of chain around your waist you would totally feel that like that oh yeah significant like a wife but anyway yeah so i haven't lost a pound this week i hope that sometime between now and tuesday i weigh in a pound lighter and um and keep the streak alive but we'll see i tried doing like a couple kettlebell swings and work mover move around workouts on friday just to be like oh it's probably not i guess it
Starting point is 00:19:52 was saturday like it wasn't like oh let's just see if this wasn't too bad and like one of the movements like i could i could tell that something was happening on my finger and i'm like oh no i'm gonna rip the fucking pad of my thumb off no i'm not doing this but jesus oh that sucks hey i used to get excited about trump news as like as this would be the seminal turning moment i've given i've let go of that but it does look pretty interesting from a story standpoint if i had my facts right and i might not because i've been watching mostly liberal news sources today the the juicy ones um yeah it appears that trump jr got an email from a russian they had involvement with both the russian government and um trump's business affairs right like apparently she's related to this billionaire this billion is a pop star trump was even in this pop star's music video and and so trump may have known him through business affairs, right? Like apparently she's related to this billionaire. This billionaire is a pop star.
Starting point is 00:20:46 Trump was even in this pop star's music video. And so Trump may have known him through business affairs, but they also worked together with the Russian government. Anyway, the email essentially paraphrased said, hey, we've got this awesome dirt on Hillary Clinton. Why don't you come see? So Trump Jr., Manafort, what's the K guy's name? Kushner? Jared Kushner.
Starting point is 00:21:08 Jared Kushner, that's who I'm going for. And another person whom I've forgotten met with this Russian person to get dirt on Hillary Clinton. And then apparently, I don't know what was said in the meeting, but they're saying that they didn't get any good dirt so there's no story here which uh um but like now the question has been answered like did the trump campaign meet with russian people to get dirt against hillary clinton yes they did like they when they heard that the russians had information on Hillary, they said, let's meet. So, that's what's new. What I'm not liking from people right now is the whole pivot to like, oh, but it's not illegal.
Starting point is 00:21:51 But it's not illegal. It's like, yeah, but imagine the fury if right now, if Hillary Clinton got voted in and it turned out you didn't just elect Hillary, you elected the whole Clinton clan. And fucking Chelsea was out there doing what Donald Trump Jr. is doing and Bill's out there doing his stuff. It's like, no, you didn't.
Starting point is 00:22:12 And people would have a right to be angry with that. So I totally see how people are upset with the whole Trump clan being involved in this. Because it's like, no, nobody voted for Donald Trump Jr. Nobody voted for Eric Trump. I really don't hear about that guy, to be fair. I don't know what the fuck he's doing. nobody voted for donald trump jr nobody voted for eric trump i really don't hear about that guy to be fair i don't know what the fuck he's doing nobody voted for ivanka you did know ivanka was gonna be like have having a role in the presidency though right like like kyle on that one because i like when taylor started i was like only if that wasn't the expectation from the start like when clinton ran hillary had a decent role in his administration
Starting point is 00:22:43 but when clinton ran i know in 92 you guys weren't that old, he was like, hey, she is a strong woman. You get two presidents for the price of one. He said that in his stump speeches. Yeah, that was understood. Yeah, so it's understood. I feel like Trump does nothing but tout Ivanka's credentials and talk about how wonderful she is.
Starting point is 00:23:02 Everything that comes out of his mouth is positive about how good Ivanka is. And this whole time, I mean, he had her as a surrogate. He's had her, you know, she's been doing radio interviews. She's been there the whole way. I knew going in that Ivanka was going to be part of the presidency in some way. I didn't know that, like, the whole Klan was. And, you know, I didn't know about all this. It just seems like we're meeting a lot with the Russians.
Starting point is 00:23:24 I do get your point with Ivanka makes sense, though, because, yeah, that Hillary Clinton comparison is apt. Because I guess of the three of those kids, it was clear she was going to be the one taking a role, if any of them. At least that was my impression. I did not foresee the two Trump boys, or I guess the one Trump boy, being a big part of this whole thing. And Ivanka's husband. Ivanka's husband. That's even more nepotistic. I feel like, and maybe I'm just thinking to
Starting point is 00:23:55 the days post his win, and I'm thinking about that time, but Kushner's definitely been up front a lot for a long time. He's put him in charge of Middle East peace. That one blew me away. But the guy's Jewish, though, isn't he? He is.
Starting point is 00:24:10 I'm with you, too, but I do— That's why I don't like anti-Semitism. I think it was post-win. I feel like prior to the winning, Kushner was not up front at all. There aren't a lot of people who paid more attention to the election than me. I was really into it, addicted nearly. And Kushner really started to meet. I think he replaced
Starting point is 00:24:27 Chris Christie in the transition to lead the transition team. Does that sound right? It doesn't really. Did you see Chris Christie today on the radio? Not today. I saw all those photoshops of him in this seat, and that's hilarious. It's good that you've seen those, because this bears upon that. Chris is doing
Starting point is 00:24:43 this morning sports radio talk show um the radio show and a caller calls in one of his constituents he says what area he's from so christy knows like what area of his constituency this guy hails from and he goes governor i just wanted to tell you that the next time you want to take your fat ass to a to the beach maybe you don't do it on one that's been closed to the rest of the damn public. And Chris calls him a communist and a bum and goes on this whole rant against it. He's like, yeah, you can tell that he's from wherever the guy's from. Like Bloomingdale because he's a communist.
Starting point is 00:25:19 Yeah, you bum. You bum. And he's coming on the radio cursing. He's like, cursing? What did I say? He said, badass. You know, it was pretty funny. He is one of the most tragic, in a very funny way, stories of the whole election, if you think about it.
Starting point is 00:25:35 Because the first guy who was like, I'm going to put my neck out there as an established politician for Donald Trump. Chris Christie, that big fat fuck. Hey, Chris Christie, I need you to stand behind me and just be fat behind me for a while. He doesn't. Make me look thin. Yeah, make me look... It's not easy, but you're the man. That's what he had him do. And then it
Starting point is 00:25:56 seemed like overnight, just on a lark, like one day Trump was like, no. Not this fat idiot. I got my attractive daughter. I got my normal looking. When he fired Chris Christie and sent him a packing, there was this hint of like, wow, Donald Trump meant what he said. He's not going to put up with any of this bullshit because what it looked like, and I mean, guess what happened for all intents and purposes was Chris Christie put together a transition team.
Starting point is 00:26:22 And Donald Trump said, oh, you got everybody together that you want? Alright, you're all fired. All of you and all the people that you hand-selected, you're gone. I'm going to get a new group in. It almost seemed like he really was playing a little 3D chess and he was like, I'll let those, I'll let the swamp assemble the swamp people that they want,
Starting point is 00:26:40 then I'll rake them to the side and then I'll know that I'm not getting any bad apples when we put my transition Team together what wouldn't that be funny if like it came out in a memoir like eight years from now where Trump's like so to Get rid of the swap I do I had to find the sloppiest creature the whole About Chris Christie and I had to pick the head best team. I do every single person you would pick was awful I didn't tell him this ahead of time over very smart man. That's good. I was president It's like why are you when you write this like you're talking like it's very disjointed chris christie is america's least popular governor right now
Starting point is 00:27:14 that's like his thing he's only least popular because he's he's also the most popular right like he's the most known like Like, name five other governors, right? I can't. I would struggle, yeah. I don't know my governor, if I'm being 100% honest. I just don't. But I know Chris Christie, and I know a lot about him. When I went to North Carolina, to Hickory, North Carolina, that wonderful rally.
Starting point is 00:27:38 Christie was there, of course, at that thing. And you're right. In comparison, Trump looks slender, young and powerful and and like statuesque i've noticed i have harsher thoughts towards fat people now that i'm 18 pounds down it's just now you're starting to get it i have less sympathy 170 pounds imagine the hatred i'm like fat people hating in my head like fuck just give up the carbs and the sugar you weak willy pansy you know you're weak will pansy i mean to say like you know i did it
Starting point is 00:28:12 you could do it you like you're not doing it because you're weak you know body acceptance just means low standards i go i'm i'm such a hypocrite with that. I'm so on your team where I will eat a whole pizza on a cheat day, and three days later, after being good for three days, I'll see somebody else ordering a gross sandwich in front of me at Subway and be like, ugh, the fuck? It's a Wednesday. Care about yourself. Don't you know to just binge on the weekend like an adult? Don't you know that's when
Starting point is 00:28:46 you get all your cheese and carbs? But you're right. You go so quick. Would cheating more help me? Alright, so I now know that I'm not doing keto strictly. It was sort of the basis of where I started, but mostly I'm just eating clean and staying
Starting point is 00:29:02 away from carbs and sugars like keto tells you to. But I had a fruit bowl the other day. Should I cheat more or less? Like, I'm like, no one gets fat eating pineapple, right? Wow. Nobody gets fat eating pineapple unless you eat an insane amount. You know they have milkshakes in Hawaii. It's fig and pineapple all day.
Starting point is 00:29:22 I think it's mainly the huge amount of sugary sauces that they're pasting their pork with. Pineapple sauces. Oh, that is... They're not just rubbing pineapple juice on it. There's added sugar and syrup and all of that. It's like pulled pork kind of stuff. No wonder they're fat. Mine was a legit pineapple that came in a pineapple, in pineapple not a can like it should be healthy i mean like it's it's like anything else don't be
Starting point is 00:29:51 an idiot and you have to be fucking dumb to get fat on fruit like it's you i'm serious you have to be a fucking moron a a full-on, pants-on-head retard to get overweight on watermelon and pineapple. And first of all, you get two days into your fruitarian Steve Jobs, I'll just take the risk with cancer diet, and you're going to be on the toilet 24-7 because you will have nothing but fructose and water and fiber running through your body as your body desperately tries to disassemble what little fat is left in your thighs to try and make cells work. You know, Steve Jobs may have gotten cancer, but that fucker was thin.
Starting point is 00:30:34 From the cancer! From the cancer! It worked! Clearly the diet has something going for it. I like this theory that the thinner one gets the the the stronger the hatred for the fat become becomes i i like that i i there was nothing more motivating than fat people hate that reddit subreddit from like that that was uh my reddit usage after fat people hate was was destroyed went down calamitously because it was like my two that i liked going to the most was hockey and fat people hate because you just pop on over into fat people
Starting point is 00:31:11 hate and if you were considering a burrito that night or a treat you would look and read the comments and see the vitriol and the hate that everyday people out there just like you think when they see a big fat person and you just go, you know what? No. Nope. I want to be on the smug team. Like, I'm going to be with these guys. I'm one of the in crowd.
Starting point is 00:31:33 And, of course, it's not healthy. Or actually, it probably is healthy because you're not eating shit. I rationalized. I was like, you know what? All right. I'm not as thin as I once was. But, no, it was, how am I doing for my demo? Huh? Huh?
Starting point is 00:31:45 For my demo amongst 44-year-olds. Pretty fucking good. If you're watching this, I bet I'm hotter than your dad. You know? Right? Like, yeah. You can compare yourself to other 44-year-olds. The state of people in their mid-40s in this country is great.
Starting point is 00:32:02 It's so visible. That's my demo. That's my peer group baby and and amongst my peers i'm like top 10 percent top five i was gonna say that but i was being modest top five somebody else say top five you're top 10 oh yeah you know and then they bring up yeah yeah top five yeah i uh And yeah, I don't know. You're just one horrific accident away from a great dating scene. Oh, John, I laughed and didn't even process it.
Starting point is 00:32:33 I was like, yeah. Oh, wait. One sort of Marvel Comics forming moment, and there you are. Wow. Tinderman. Yeah, Tinderman. Tinderman. Long skinny fingers raking right.
Starting point is 00:32:53 But yeah, I look much better than I did and not as good as I want to. So that's a thing. I think that's where we're all at. And we're all marching the path towards betterment. So that's good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:06 I've been working out on the kettlebells hard enough that now sometimes I don't want to say dread it. But, yeah, there are times when it's just like, oh, yeah, it's kettlebell day. This is going to hurt. What's the mace? I saw those and I saw Rogan talking about the mace. And that looked pretty cool. I'm going to add that to the kettlebell. Yeah, like a mace.
Starting point is 00:33:25 It's a steel thing with a heavier thing on the end. Does it have spikes? What do you do with it? Well, it's for working out. They're twisting them around and doing kettlebell-style workouts, but you're rotating them and keeping them stabilized. It's for prematurely wearing out your rotator cuff. Try it.
Starting point is 00:33:41 You'll love it. Well, he suggested that they were good for strengthening all the stuff between your joints and stuff. He was like, if you're on a machine, you're just doing this one thing, but you're never strengthening the connective tissues. And he made the case of the opposite, that doing that and stabilizing it and doing it over your head and doing all these weird positions was strengthening all the connective tissues and creating some...
Starting point is 00:34:03 I think it's funny when they try and like... I bet you guys worry about working out than I do. What were you saying, Taylor? Oh, I was... I'm on this website, Steel Mace Training, you know, where they're talking about how you train with a steel mace. And I like when they take these archaic methods and they try and impose like modern science and saying like, you know, originally developed by the ancient Persian warrior elite, the
Starting point is 00:34:24 gada, heavy mace in quotes, style of training was directly applicable to real-world combat and wrestling applications. And then it goes on to, like, real science and shit, and it's like, no. No, it was people in Persia thousands of years ago didn't know how to make much, so they made a heavy ball on the end of something, and it was like, you know, if the other goat people come and try and attack after working out we give them a whack that's a good idea buddy like you wouldn't be like oh and when you're training with these steel mace ancient Persian techniques be sure to go by the ancient Persian dirty water and honey diet you know like that's what you want you want nothing but it's
Starting point is 00:35:01 bullshit my swim coach told us what his swim practices were like. They would just practice racing. They didn't know what the fuck to do. They're like, all right, you raced the 400, so, well, you just go back and forth eight laps really hard, take a breath, and then keep doing that, and eventually you'll get better at that. There was no real training. There was no focus In technique, nothing They just practiced racing all the time
Starting point is 00:35:28 That's 60s workouts Now it's way more I'm probably going to date what now is But even by the 90s it was way better than the 60s And our times were better But anyway So yeah, I don't know If the circle back to the Trump thing is interesting
Starting point is 00:35:44 I'm really hoping that this special council But anyway, so yeah, I don't know if a circle back to the Trump thing is interesting. I'm really hoping that this special counsel completely answers the questions, right? Like, okay, I hated the TV show Lost because they left these clues, these things over the course of six years. It was like, well, Walter has special powers. This number is really significant. The fat guy, this whole thing exists in his head. There's a panda on the island. There's this.
Starting point is 00:36:10 There's dragons. There's smoke monsters. There's whatever. And then you get to the very end, and you're like, wait, what? He didn't answer. I hope that, is his name Mueller? When he comes out, he's going to put out, and it needs to be written an interesting way like a novel that's that's 60 pages that like answers all the questions rachel maddow has asked over the last 12 months i'd like some illustrations
Starting point is 00:36:33 in there this is the kind of out of box thinking that has made pka so successful this is what we need to invest in right after the barebore candle market we're gonna go right into graphic novels and we don't even have to wait until all the details are out you know it'll be just like making a murderer how they make fun of that and it's always sunny where they're like you're gonna string it on for 10 episodes well of course we're gonna string it on for 10 episodes we don't give answers we don't give what people want we don't give them you know results we just imply things. Imply. That's what we do.
Starting point is 00:37:09 We just write a big story arc of graphic novels. That would sell well. Did you read the 9-11? What was it called? The 9-11 report, I think. It might have just been called that. The 9-11 commission report. Yeah. Did you guys read that?
Starting point is 00:37:21 Dude, it was good reading. It was legit good reading like it it starts off with like you know 6 55 a.m you know 19 people get on board in a boston airport and manage to infiltrate the and you're it's like holy shit this is like a crime novel and you read it all the way through it was interesting reading and you really got to see, a lot of who knew what when and how it went down. But mostly, like, the mechanics of what happened on that day. Well, don't spoil the ending. I'm going to read it now.
Starting point is 00:37:54 Okay. Okay. Is that one of those, like, because you probably know what I mean where you read something about history. Something I remember, like, specifically is the letter about that albert fish this serial killer wrote do you know who that is woody so albert fish was uh one of the most notorious horrible child murdering serial killer psychopaths ever and this dude would capture kill cook and eat little children and he has a letter out there on the internet, and it is a letter that he wrote to the mother and father of a little girl.
Starting point is 00:38:33 Of two little boys, yeah. There were two. There was one, because he said the younger one had more tender flesh or some creepy shit. Oh, I see where this is going now. It was just a whole letter, and it was written in a way it wasn't written like i killed your baby and then i ate him up good i fixed him i poured him in a pot it was like articulate it was like it was a thursday afternoon i decided to go out after
Starting point is 00:38:56 picking up the paper i i saw a nice young boy playing in the street i decided to invite him back home he was curious and very cute. Once we got in the house, I told him, like, here, Kyle, you can jump in with whatever you know, but it was suffice to say, incredibly upsetting. It's a real telling of the times that this happened in. The way that Albert procured the child is he went to this lady's
Starting point is 00:39:18 house and was like, hey, see, you've got a small child out here on the walk. I have a small grandson the same age having a birthday party today. How about he comes with me and we go over to the party? She's like, sure, take him. Yeah, alright. Bring him back before, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:39:34 dark? Whenever that happens. And so Albert is away with the child and like days pass and he consumes the child and then he writes her this letter and it's delivered to her she can't read luckily unfortunately her other son can and he reads it out loud to her um and it's it's it's basically a part of it is a bit of a cookbook yes how long is it all right it's like
Starting point is 00:39:57 two paragraphs two two the part about the pps and the oh man all right Dear Mrs. Budd, in 1894, a friend of mine shipped as a deckhand on the steamer Tacoma, Captain John Davis. They sailed from San Francisco to Hong Kong, China. On arriving there, he and two others went ashore and got drunk. When they returned, the boat was gone. At that time, there was a famine in China. Meat of any kind
Starting point is 00:40:19 was from one to three dollars a pound. So great was the suffering among the very poor that all children under 12 were sold for food in order to keep others from starving. A boy or girl under 14 was not safe in the street. You could go to just about any shop and ask for a steak, chops, or stew meat. Part of the naked body of a boy or girl
Starting point is 00:40:36 would be brought out and just what you wanted cut from it. A boy or girl's behind, which is the sweetest part of the body and sold as a veal cutlet, brought the highest price. John said that so long he acquired a taste for human flesh. On his return to New York he stole two boys, one seven and one eleven, took them to his home, stripped them naked, tied them in the closet, then burned everything they had on. Several times every day and night he spanked them, tortured them to make their meat good and tender. First he killed the 11 year old-old boy because he had the fattest ass
Starting point is 00:41:06 and of course the most meat on it. Every part of his body was cooked and eaten except the head, bones, and guts. He was roasted in the oven, all of his ass boiled, broiled, fried, and stewed. The little boy was next. Went the same way. At that time I was living at 409 East 100th Street, right side.
Starting point is 00:41:22 He told me how good little human flesh was when I made up my mind to taste it. On Sunday, June the 3rd, 1928, I called you at 406 West 15th Street, bought you a pot cheese, strawberries. We had lunch. Grace sat in my lap and kissed me. I made up my mind to eat her.
Starting point is 00:41:37 On the pretense of taking her to a party, you said, yes, she could go. I took her to an empty house in Westchester I'd already picked out. When I got there, I told her to remain outside. She picked wildflowers. I went upstairs and stripped all my clothes off. I knew if I did not get her blood on, I did not want her blood to get on them.
Starting point is 00:41:52 When all was ready, I went to the window and called her. Then I hid in the closet until she was in the room. When she saw me all naked, she began to cry and tried to run down the stairs. I grabbed her and she said she would tell her mama. First, I stripped her naked. How she did kick, bite, and scratch. Wow. have and I wished she died a virgin that's the end of the letter wow that is more evil than
Starting point is 00:42:34 like any like the most like fucked up like horror movie writer in the world has to read something like that and be like oh man this guy's good like this guy's the winner of this something like that and be like, oh, man. This guy's good. Like, this guy's the winner of this contest. Like, that is so fucked up. No, I got a little...
Starting point is 00:42:51 At first, I thought the girl's parents were the same as the boy's parents, but they were different. Yeah. It was different. He was telling about how he first tasted human flesh in the late 1800s and how he decided he loved it so much
Starting point is 00:43:01 he just had to do it again. Christ. It must taste amazing, eh? Maybe that's it. Maybe this guy's stone cold sane, but human flesh is just delicious. I had some lamb chops a couple days ago. I'd never had them before.
Starting point is 00:43:17 I just hadn't. They were so good. I think I prefer it to beef now. Maybe it's like that. Maybe he tasted human child ass, and he was like, oh, how can I go back to pork? I'm glad this guy got the electric chair.
Starting point is 00:43:31 That must have been a... See, issues like this are when I have to rethink about the death penalty, because I don't like the death penalty, because stuff can go wrong. But you read about stuff like this this and a dude who wrote a letter like that and like if you ask him like Mr. Fish did you write this letter he's like oh yes
Starting point is 00:43:50 I think it was my best work other than you know upper thigh cutlet you know souffle or whatever the fuck he was making aside from my recipes this is as good as I do didn't Albert Fish wasn't he also inserting all those push pins into his like groin area and when I say groin sometimes pushpins into his groin area?
Starting point is 00:44:06 I say groin. Sometimes on TV they'll say groin and they mean genitals. I mean his entire groin area. He's pushing pushpins in, and they're all embedded in his groin area in an X-ray. It was about that time that Fish began to indulge in self-harm. He would embed needles into his groin and abdomen. After his arrest, X-rays revealed that fish had at least 29 Needles lodged in his pelvic region
Starting point is 00:44:34 He also had himself repeatedly with a nail studded paddle and inserted wool doused with lighter fluid Into his anus and set it alight what? That's just I mean this is that man's afraid of the electric chair yeah he's like you're not even gonna stuff lighter kerosene soaked wool up my ass that's what it was like they're like Mr. Fish we sentence you to death oh are you gonna stuff me full of steel wool and light me on fire? Jesus! Christ, no! No! What are you talking about? No, we're gonna electrocute- what the fuck? Jesus! Like I said, Judge is sitting there with his fucking hat all flustered. Oh! His wig, you know? I guess we probably should. When was this?
Starting point is 00:45:18 Fuck, well I don't want to say what we were planning now. Early 1900s. That's very intense. We definitely weren't just gonna electrocute you to death. Right, guys? That wasn't the plan we were going to put needles in your genitals until you die two steps ahead judge your honor my only issue with the death penalty is that sometimes they mess it up and that i don't like you know that oh and then a lot of people say that it's more expensive which i believe like it's no one seems to say no it's more expensive, which I believe. No one seems to say no, it's not. But I do feel like we could make it.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Can we streamline this? The system that makes it more expensive is bullshit. That's the problem. It's not that the death penalty is inherently flawed. The idea of killing someone as a punishment or as the final solution to their ruined self-being isn't necessarily
Starting point is 00:46:04 a bad thing or a problem, I think. It's how we as imperfect beings implement that system. It's the innocent people who get killed. It's the guilty people who don't get a quick death. They asphyxiate or they're tortured. With the lethal injection, I think sometimes they're lying there completely unable to scream but in tons of pain. We really don't know what's going on.
Starting point is 00:46:24 The way they do it in westerns, you know the old movies? That seems cost effective. I bet it's cheaper to do it that way than it is to keep them in cells. It is, because there's no litigation. Although they try them. Those trials go on sometimes for a week.
Starting point is 00:46:41 Sometimes hours at a time. Before everyone involved is too drunk. Yeah, that's what Hang Em High is all about. Clint Eastwood is falsely lynched, hung, at the beginning of the movie, and then he spends the rest of the movie, he gets deputized, and then he
Starting point is 00:46:56 goes and gets all the men who falsely hung him. How do these survivors hang him? I don't remember if someone rescued him or whatever, but the whole movie he's got this awful scar from where the rope was. He did survive it somehow or another. I think the limb breaks or he wiggles out or someone
Starting point is 00:47:11 saves him. I don't recall. The people that hung him or hanged him, I think hanged is actually right. The people that hanged him, were they incompetent or bad? They were on the lookout for someone who had actually stolen some cattle and they came upon Clint Eastwood out in the wilderness And said ah this must be the guy and then like there's two ways of hanging someone like the
Starting point is 00:47:30 Every time you see them in the town when they're up on that platform with a trapdoor Like there's a precise amount of rope that they use based on your weight to calculate breaking your neck without tearing your head off And a lot of times what they'll do instead you see is people just get strangled which is a long excruciating death and and that's when you just put the rope around someone's neck and then just suspend them slowly so that you don't get that quick snap of the neck um and then they can last like depending on how strong you are how thick your neck is all that stuff you can last long kyle you've been strangled and i know i have a couple of times yeah it's not that bad um there's a panicking completely out of control of your own existence kind of moments that's like claustrophobia uh a little bit um and there's a there's some pain
Starting point is 00:48:19 but it's it's not the sort of it's not a sharp pain it's a dull squeezing pain the big issue i've had with strangled which is not an issue in execution is uh for some reason when i come back i'm embarrassed like it bothers me that everyone else knows what just happened and i have some sort of memory loss there's a span of time even if it's just 15 seconds where everyone knows something happened like something interesting happened the man was unconscious they all know about it and i have no recollection of it and being at that disadvantage made me really uncomfortable every time i always enjoy it it's it's it's like uh i i from panic attacks i've fallen unconscious many times so it's like i'm pretty accustomed to what it feels like to lose and then regain consciousness
Starting point is 00:49:05 i guess and i've bumped my noggin a couple times too doing silly stuff so you know uh so whenever i'm coming out of them oh this is cool oh oh that was cool where was i how long how long because you can't tell it's it's not like if you take a nap you can often tell oh that was only like a 45 minute nap my eyes still burn but like with this you're like was that three seconds or was that three minutes were you guys like did you give me cpr because because it didn't work right like what just happened here like you know you don't know yeah you don't know i saw a cop hold a choke too long kill a guy the other day really yeah maybe 90 seconds two minutes three minutes maybe a brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioner got into a fight with a guy uh it was at a drive-thru
Starting point is 00:49:51 and the other guy was drunk so he was being an ass and like honking and stuff so they came out to like he like came out to confront him because the honker was clearly overreacting he put him in a guillotine and uh you know he'd probably done it a bunch of times before. The guy passes out, comes to, but something to do with choking out a drunk is more dangerous. Their brains like restart button might be a little rusty when you're drunk.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Could be. Could be. I don't think those are actually things. Yeah, your brain's restart button. It's just in the back. It's a little red are actually things. It brings restart button. It's in the back. It's a little red thing. And it's made of metal. You gotta use a pen. And it was rusty.
Starting point is 00:50:36 I'm looking up famous executioners. What a job that must have been back in the day. I'm reading about this guy here who was the executioner for 500, or I guess the less famous Bugatti, Giovanni Bugatti. He didn't make the fun car. He conducted over 500 papal executions, meaning that he beheaded over 500 people who had offended somehow the papacy.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Damn. Which means they didn't deserve it. The Catholic Church, the Pope. Yeah, so the Pope. I would guarantee like only 10% deserved it, right? Because like maybe they offended the papacy by raping a child or something. No, no, they would like that. What would actually offend them that we would- Well, what they would hate more than anything then, I would think, would be blasphemy. Jews.
Starting point is 00:51:28 So anything that you're preaching, if you preach against whatever religion, Catholicism, at the time, then they'd kill you. Ah, this is good for a segue. And I know we've only got like five minutes here or something like that. We're going to bring it on. I have been watching this thing called Castlevania on Netflix. It's a four episode animated thing based on the video game that I never played.
Starting point is 00:51:52 But like, just to like, it gets right into the story right away and I really dug it. There's gore. There's like blood and guts. And not just adult men, like the women. But the women. And the children like everyone everyone gets ripped apart uh basically the story is that uh it's like 1450 the year is and vlad dracula
Starting point is 00:52:14 is a thing and but but he's he's retired from his old impaling ways now he just lives in his castle with advanced technology uh and and a solitary uh sort of lifestyle and uh a woman comes to him from her ignorant-like city, and she's like, I want to learn to be a doctor. I want to learn to use real science. And he's intrigued because he's like, maybe I'll just drink from you. And she's like, you're rude. You haven't even offered to take my coat. And he's kind of taken aback by this woman's style.
Starting point is 00:52:40 And he's like, I think I like you. And long story short, they get married. The townspeople, aka the Catholic Church church decides she's a witch and burn her and so dracula's like crying tears of blood and turning into a big pillar of fire and coming back as a demon head on the pyre and he's like you have one year and i will come back and destroy all of you for burning my wife and and they're all like bullshit and it's like what are you all of you for burning my wife. And they're all like, bullshit. And it's like, what are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:53:10 You just saw it happen. And so a year goes by. For real, for real. A year goes by and the cardinal gets wheeled out, right? They bring him out on one of those altars and put him down in front of everybody. He's like, a year ago, Satan came to us. You all saw him. He said, be prepared.
Starting point is 00:53:30 I'll be back in a year and going to kill you all. And look at us here. This is our greatest celebration. Satan is a deceiver and a liar. And right about that time, the fucking sky turns dark and Dracula shows up. And he's like, you're all still here? I gave you a fucking year to run for your lives.
Starting point is 00:53:49 I spent that whole year summoning a hell army. I get back and you're celebrating the day you burned my wife. I've had it! And he turns loose this army of... Is this like the opening? Or have you told the whole story?
Starting point is 00:54:05 Yeah, this is like the first episode. This is like the first half of the first episode. On the morning of the anniversary. Like, that's a 365 days later party. Like, you gotta be sure. Yeah, right? Yeah, because if you're wrong, then you don't want to be like,
Starting point is 00:54:20 it's almost been a year! You want to be like, so it's been a year. We can breathe now. It's been a year. He didn't say a year and, it's almost been a year! You want to be like, so it's been a year. We can breathe now. It's been a year. He didn't say a year in a day. He said a year. That's a pretty interesting premise. Yeah, he releases this hell army on the city, and as it's ripping through these
Starting point is 00:54:35 beasts with wings and fangs and claws, they're tearing babies apart, and there's a part where you see a baby in its jaws as it's running away, like eating the baby. And just big swaths of people get clawed apart and guts go everywhere. It's a real dark time.
Starting point is 00:54:52 And then, of course, there's a hero to come in and try to help with all this. But honestly, I'm on Dracula's side. Have you watched The Young Pope yet? No, but I saw it on HBO. See, I've been catching up with Game of Thrones. I watched season six of Game of Thrones. I actually saw that.
Starting point is 00:55:07 But Young Pope didn't move quick enough for me in the first episode or two. I need a media consumption professional like you to tell me if it's good or not. I actually did watch Young Pope the first, I think, two, maybe three episodes. And it also didn't pull me in. It wasn't that I disliked it. It was just, I wasn't... It wasn't as interesting as I thought. There's something about a show about the Pope
Starting point is 00:55:30 where if the Pope... If there's fucking cell phones and cars and it's modern day society and you're the Pope, like, I'm sorry, but even though you're still a powerful dude, you're not a fucking percent of a tenth as powerful as the Pope 400 years ago I want to look at the Pope from the year 800 you know when it was well
Starting point is 00:55:51 there's the king of England there's the king of France and there's the Pope the three most powerful people on the planet like it's more there's more at stake I don't want to watch the up-and-comer Pope like yeah we're gonna claw back like two percent of what we used to be able to do if we were at the ocean's edge and we were worried it was too rough, I would understand if you sent me in to go check it out, right? That's something that I – this is where we need Kyle, right, Kyle? I'm not a huge Jude Law fan. Kyle can do five episodes into this thing.
Starting point is 00:56:23 See, I don't like that. You know what turns me off to Sherlock? I always heard about this Sherlock Holmes show on the BBC and the Cumberbatch guy. Batch guy. And I was like, yeah, yeah, I like that guy. I guess I'm going to finally get into Sherlock. I like the idea of Sherlock Holmes and Watson and all that good stuff. It's modern day?
Starting point is 00:56:43 They're fucking driving around in cars and shit? I had no idea. As soon as I saw there was no fucking pipe and silly hats, I just noped right out of that shit. Who needs Sherlock when you can just Google shit? Yeah, I've seen CSI. I've seen CSI. I've got a bit of an intuition about this
Starting point is 00:57:00 murder scene. Well, don't fucking touch anything Sherlock, because forensics is coming and they'll tell you. No, I don't need that. I think I've got this in the bag. Wipe that blood up. No, I'm not fucking touching it, you maniac. Like, we're not going on hunches. Put your magnifying glass away.
Starting point is 00:57:16 Watch it or you'll fill in it. He's doing that, like, detective hand behind him magnifying glass. He's like, ah, dust, as I suspected. You as i suspected you know a slight breeze coming from this crack in the floor yes sherlock that's the ac system get the fuck out of here jesus it's not it's not always a secret wall you cunt what is this devilry it's the exit sign it's the exit yeah of course sherlock isn't left. But Sherlock isn't from. Of course not.
Starting point is 00:57:45 Of course not. Okay, thank you. Yeah, yeah. I was like, if they literally took some guy from like, I don't know, Columbus time and brought him. That would be a better show. That would be. If you time warped old timey Sherlock Holmes from like industrial era or whatever into
Starting point is 00:58:00 modern day. And then that was the thing that like. It'd be a comedy. He'd be a laughingstock. No, at first he would, and then every step of the way, you'd write in a way that his old-timey techniques trump the new techniques. They'd be like, ah, he used bleach all over this. There's no DNA anywhere.
Starting point is 00:58:18 Ha, my good man, don't you smell that acetone? Clearly we're dealing with the fingernail lady. That's what I would like. I would want to see a show where they bring back someone who was brilliant in the year 1200, and then they just get beat the fuck out by someone just with a phone here, where he comes into the future and he's like, Finally, I can make headway into my research. Tell me, what have you discovered of our
Starting point is 00:58:50 many humors in the body? Like, humors? What do you mean? You know, viscera, blood, gore, the confines of your mind controlled by these humors, yes? No. No, no, no. It's way more complicated. Oh my god my god dude are you serious
Starting point is 00:59:06 are you serious he's like my whole life's work is nothing come here rub your head to determine if you have any illness well at least tell me the the upcoming events of phrenology you know which is the discovery of the head you know so they could like look at basically a black person and be like oh oh, clearly inferior. They look different. I thought that would be a good gift for you one time. I saw one of those phrenology heads. It's like a human-sized head made of glass
Starting point is 00:59:34 or something, and it's got all the zones drawn out and descripted and everything. If they discovered my skeleton in the year 1890, I'd have my own Wikipedia page. Clearly the Homo sapiens have naked with the Cro-Magnon's all of the creationist would be like well then you explain to me the late 17th century Mirka man explain the size of that head you You find me one human
Starting point is 01:00:05 being on this planet with a head that size. The Lord clearly made us special. You don't think of that kind of... I don't know why that's funny to me. I wonder... I'm excited about the Trump story. I know I brought it up like twice. I wonder, is it going to go anywhere? Probably not. It never does.
Starting point is 01:00:22 It never does. And then I know i've dismissed the whole idea that the trumps i'm extending that to the junior now are playing 3d chess but he tweeted out what seemed to be incriminating emails he's like hey i have no secrets these are the emails and uh it's like his claim is that because he didn't get any good info that he's innocent, right? Like, I can just imagine the conversation with my wife. I think Trevor Noah did this. Honey, the reason I met that woman at the hotel is she said she would fuck me.
Starting point is 01:00:58 But turns out she wouldn't. So why are you mad? Right? That is the defense that they're pulling. And it'll probably work. always does yeah it's different legally but we'll see if there's stuff there i want it uncovered yeah i really don't like this whole fucking trump clan i saw two lawyers on tv today argue about whether taking a meeting with her for like nefarious information about hillary clinton is soliciting that information or not because that's a i guess that's against the law meeting with her for like nefarious information about Hillary Clinton is
Starting point is 01:01:25 soliciting that information or not. Cause that's a, I guess that's against the law. And they're like, he wasn't soliciting it. It was offered. And they're like, well,
Starting point is 01:01:32 he took the meeting that's soliciting. I don't know. I don't know either. We'll have to see. Yeah. Yeah. We'll see. Uh,
Starting point is 01:01:40 but anyway, super interesting day. Yeah. Yep. All right. PKN. Check out Castlevania. You'll like it. On Netflix. interesting day. Yeah. Yeah. All right, PKN. Check out Castlevania. You'll like it. On Netflix, you say.
Starting point is 01:01:49 Yeah, it's four episodes. Only four episodes. It's like two hours of total content. Oh, dude, I rewatched season six of Game of Thrones. It was good. And there were things I forgot. I'm halfway through it right now, and I'm digging it, yeah. I was like, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:02:03 There were some significant deaths that i forgot uh walter fray i forgot they killed walter from like yeah i don't know how right and then aria is like they're here they're in the like who did he feed to walter fray his sons yep yeah his son and she's like you know see i want the last i am aria stark i want you to know that i want you to know the last thing you will know the last thing you will see is a stark shoving a knife through your heart and then she does it uh and it was just i'm coming up on that episode like i just watched the episode where like aria gets stabbed and falls in the water or whatever. It's such an amazing fucking show, man. It's full of those incredible moments that'll give you goosebumps or whatever. The Khaleesi rides in on her dragon and she's like,
Starting point is 01:02:57 Every other call before has asked for three Blood Riders. Not me, though. You're all my Blood Riders. I i'm gonna ask more of you than any other call asked before you you getting the wooden ships and cross the salt sea they're all like fuck yeah will you kill the men in the iron suits yeah will you tear down their stone houses as no call is done before they're like fuck yeah she's like all right let's go and like there's like a quarter million of them over there the storm that is the calise i just i can't wait to see that like land right like i want them to get out and be like all right we're fucking here let's
Starting point is 01:03:36 find some people to kill for some reason the sons of the harpy were this big problem that couldn't seem they couldn't deal with them even though they 8,000 unsullied in the brotherhood. They had the masks. They were underground. Guerrilla resistance. Exactly. They were terrorists, right? They were very tricky.
Starting point is 01:03:51 Terrorists. But they're out there like killing people and then like a quarter million Dothraki screamers come in on their horses and it's like, yes, yes. Like now she has the Dothraki behind her again. Like, all of them. Like, all of them in existence, it seems like.
Starting point is 01:04:09 Because that's what they were doing at Vase Dothrak. They were having, like, the big quarterly meeting, right? Like, everybody's coming in from the outside branches. The international crew came in from Essos. I didn't realize there were so many calls early in Game of Thrones. Like, season one or something. I thought he led the Dothrakis. I didn't realize there were a dozen of early in Game of Thrones. Like season one or something, I thought he led the Dothrakis. I didn't realize there were a dozen of him.
Starting point is 01:04:28 Well, you were right and wrong because he was the greatest of the calls and he had united all the calls to go do one thing, right? Okay. But normally I think they're like, you know, they're traveling warlords with their own bands, varying in power, like war chiefs. So he was an extra good call. Yeah, because clearly when the Khaleesi was like,
Starting point is 01:04:50 I'm Khal Drogo's, she's like, I'm the breaker of chains and the mother of dragons and the queen of marine. And also I was married to Khal Drogo. And they're like, you were married to Khal Drogo? Oh, shit. We're so sorry. We're so sorry. No man can touch a Khal's wait wait up yeah they changed
Starting point is 01:05:06 their mind about that yeah yeah later on when they all meet they're like we're all gonna fuck you and then our blood riders will fuck you and if there's anything left of you we'll toss you to the rest and horses get you then and she's like no nobody will fuck me and then she starts burning shit it was really good yeah the horses you're right they said if anything left the horses get in on it yeah and uh they've seen bad drag and they were only two buckets of water from the whole plan going tits up you know someone has started a fire in the corner of our heart put it out back to business that's exactly what happened as fucking naked denaris stood out there shivering where's my warm fire for me to jump into if you watch that scene again i don't know why like it's like a tiki torch or something bigger than that but let's call it a tiki torch
Starting point is 01:05:57 for my purposes they knock it over and all of a sudden it's a 70s flamethrower from vietnam oh well it's full of oil it's a big basin of it'sower from Vietnam. Oh, well, it's full of oil. It's a big basin of oil. It's two big basins of oil that must be holding like three gallons each. So it's like she pushes like six gallons of burning oil and it splatters all over everything. And it comes back up. It kind of defies gravity
Starting point is 01:06:17 attached. It goes everywhere. It's reminiscent to me, you know, in Austin Powers, that scene where the guy is in the cement roller or whatever and He's going straight towards that dude who's like 50 yards from and the guy's like And eventually, you know after a minute it gets to him and crushes him That's what I imagine it being like in that hut where it's like, how do we get out of this fiery hut? We cannot use our swords to cut through the leafy walls.
Starting point is 01:06:46 No swords. There's no swords. See, that's the thing. No weapons in base got threatened. Well, he said that. He can't use our swords. We cannot use our big muscles and these wooden chairs to bash up. If you give me my hands and you put me in one of those Japanese houses
Starting point is 01:07:00 with paper walls, I'll make a fucking mess of the place. Laura came and locked the door for us. She told him to. Yeah, but it's like if I get... The only point you can stand on here is that place burnt down like it was made of kindling. Like, it was like... You gotta have it one way or another. Either that place is so sturdy that these men just can't get their way
Starting point is 01:07:18 out, or it's so tinderbox light that it goes up like that and it burns down instantly. It's one or the other. But realistically, they should have either been able to get out or, like that and it burns down instantly. It's one or the other. But realistically, they should have either been able to get out or stomp that fire out. I think the three of us would have beat that girl to death and then put that fire out
Starting point is 01:07:34 with her body. Gur Martin in interviews has said she is not fireproof. That was a one-time event. I guess so. And we're like, but a minute you know what about the super hot water that you know like the other people didn't like but she was cool with or what about that time she touched like the ring of a fire i think that happened early on yeah
Starting point is 01:07:54 all the whole way through in the show at least she's been fire resistant it just makes sense that she's gonna have a flame fire breathing dragon like like i don't care what martin said like it's i've always ignored that because of the hot bath and everything that stemmed from it yeah there's just been so many signs that she's full-on fireproof anytime she needs to be and we certainly saw it this time yeah burned down in the building she grabs you know that and that that's a moment in its own regard she grabs that urn of oil that's burning and and the side of it should have been hundreds of degrees you have been hundreds of degrees you know like one of those things where you touch it you're like ah fuck fuck fuck and
Starting point is 01:08:29 she's like so i'll lead them and they're all like what what she's just touching that what wait wait wait and then she shoves them over so i like that moment and i hate it at the same time that moment would have worked so much better it would work so much better if she dumped the oil directly on the men. If the oil had immediately ignited the men, then I'm 100% on board. They were on bleachers, if I recall.
Starting point is 01:08:55 She ascends to a higher thing. I'm talking about redesigning the whole set. All I'm saying is that it was a little unbelievable that that whole place burnt down and all of those men perished before they could get out or any of their hundreds of thousands of cohorts could save them. It's not like there's a lot of stuff hiding the fact
Starting point is 01:09:12 that that place was going up like a tinderbox. Everyone would immediately know. Who burns this place? It's the girl covered in oil, everyone. It's that one. That would have been cool. They killed the lookouts. They did do that. what if she had soaked herself in the oil and she was just a flame
Starting point is 01:09:30 like fighting them like Johnny Flame in the Fantastic Four I love this idea and every time they tried to combat her they would ignite yeah I like that idea they hit her and then they have third degree burns it's just as stupid as what happened I don't know.
Starting point is 01:09:45 I don't like the unrealistic. That sounds so stupid to say unrealistic parts of Game of Thrones. But you know what I mean. Unrealistic within the universe. How many times have we seen some physically weak character get, bah, fucking reality smacked right into him right away. Oh, you thought you were the good righteous character? Well, I'm the big strong character.
Starting point is 01:10:03 And that trumps that 1,000% of the time. like and and this was one of those moments where we're like oh so the pretty girl wins just because eh okay there's another moment they got a ton of heat for it with the damn sand snakes right yeah that's the lowest rated episode of all time you can watch the imdb like episode by episode thing and that one is the like the only one that fell below a seven I want to say on their aggregate score thingy read the books and then you watch that episode like the whole thing you're thinking when you're watching Game of Thrones anyway is like oh come on like get back to Tyrion get back to Arya like let me see what's going on with John like
Starting point is 01:10:40 you're wishing almost the whole series away for the next ledge of the storyline and when you spend 40 minutes on these bitches with nothing to do with the story itself, it's like oh my god, you didn't just waste 40 minutes, the opportunity cost of those 40 minutes you wasted
Starting point is 01:11:00 is infinite, because you could have done anything with those 40 minutes that actually pushed the story forward instead of just Making up shit characters because people complain there weren't enough women in it And you know that's the reason why they did that is because they wanted to put more female characters in it It's like well Let me ask you this do you think that women out there are so stupid who like this show that they watch? Female characters like that and they're like haha. That's what I like. This is what I enjoy in this show
Starting point is 01:11:22 It's like the worst part enjoy enjoy character development like men do. They want to watch interesting characters. And these were not interesting. They were shit. They took up time. And worst of all is that you're putting those three silly characters in in comparison with characters like Brienne and all the other bad— Cersei and Arya and all of the other women in the show.
Starting point is 01:11:43 Every woman in the show is a badass. Like, Sansa has has had i mean you can say what she's been a victim but like it's just the last badass i think of aria when i think badass in the series aria is a fucking like like triple black belt assassin like faceless man uh little girl who's gonna be always underestimated but will gouge her eyeballs out. Like, super terrifying. So you don't need these, like, titty girls with, like, Ninja Turtle weapons. Sansa's growing a backbone. So there's that.
Starting point is 01:12:14 I just watched her recently, you know, see the dogs on Ramsey. Yeah. And I was like, all right. Sansa's calculating. I hope Sansa is about to be the next Littlefinger. She fails me. But that's what I'm still hoping for. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 01:12:30 Ramsey's death was all brought on by himself, really, with the dogs. Starving dogs. Where it was like, you know what? If Ramsey had just fed those dogs instead of being a psychopath, then he would have been locked in that cage, and she would have left, and the dogs wouldn't have eaten him and he would have lived. But because he's a psychopath...
Starting point is 01:12:48 The ropes! The ropes, Fido! Remember me? Lovely Ramsey, your favorite. And he'd be like, Yeah, boss, I remember. Yeah, boss, I remember. Oh, I remember.
Starting point is 01:12:59 You let me eat them bitches. Let's go. Yeah, we can wrap. Yeah, good show. All right. PKN 152.
