Great goofs and gags. I would see it. Last episode I said I would refuse to go to a theater, but now I'm not hungover. So it seems like a less daunting experience now. I was scared just at the thought of leaving the house the other day. Will you eat food now? I'm still on my no-food journey. Okay, period.

know what the lawsuit is about i'm trying to i think i'm hearing jock in the bathroom yeah yeah oh oh no he also put his headphones right next to his mic, so that'll make for some amazing editing work for me. Yeah. He's so good at his job. I really think he deserves a raise or maybe an award. But no, I guess for anyone out there who doesn't know who Laura Lumer is, she was kind of a, where did she even start? She started as like a conservative influencer on Twitter.

At least that's how I knew her in like 2016. And she was famously banned from Twitter and then banned from almost all conceivable apps. She was banned from Venmo. She, like, got banned from, like, Uber Eats. Facebook. Facebook. She was banned from apps that are, like, used to, like, track your period. And she was literally banned from, like, everything.

And then she famously handcuffed herself to Facebook HQ, the front door. Yes. In one of the most embarrassing videos I've ever seen. She's so cool. Then she got surgery on her face to look like jigsaw. There's actually a part in this, in this deposition. transcript where she's they're like do you know how have you been deposed before and she's like yes I was deposed in a malpractice case and I'm like oh medical malpractice oh of course no but it was it was

um legal malpractice against like um for some other shit I feel like she's she's probably doing some slip and falls and you know good on her she's literally probably can't have a banking account I yeah I think she sued someone for um like it had something to do with with the Muslim anti-defamation league, like a kind of Muslim analog of that sued her for saying some really crazy things about, yeah, about Muslim. She's incredibly racist and Islamophobic. Yeah, yeah. She's absolutely evil.

She did invent jigsawification. She was like one of the first people to have the jigsaw combo, which is like bugle fat, cheek filler and browlift. and then like chin implant as well those four things are kind of the jigsaw the jigsaw trifecta quad facto how do you say four yeah yeah but yes yes she looks hilarious and she was I mean recently rumored to be dating a

Trump or like fucking with Trump fucking Trump that's what this lawsuit's about actually really yes so she is the plaintiff and she is suing Bill Mar No way Yes

How have I not heard of this Isn't that crazy She's suing Bill Mar for saying For implying on his show that she was fucking Trump And that's slander or libel Yeah defamation Yeah

And she In Oh God they really deserve each other I know It's so beautiful It's so beautiful I can see them having like Will they won't they

opposites attract sexual tension. Yeah. So Bill Marr basically, you can hear shock coughing. I know. Yeah, but she is, her assertion is that she was unable to get a job at the Trump White House because Bill Mar like made this joke about her. I think maybe Laura loomers in an arranged relationship to affect the election because she's very close to Trump. She's 31. Looks like his type. We did an editorial here a few years

ago. You're remembering it already. It was basically, who's Trump? Because I said, you know, it's not nobody. He's been a dog for too long. And it's not Melania. I think we may have our answer this week. it might be Laura Lumer. I'm just saying. Bet, you can't go to Subway. Like, you're fairly banned from, like, a Chipotle.

You can't get... She couldn't even... She couldn't even get press credentials at the Trump White House when they were, like, we're opening up the press book. And, like, the reason this deposition is so funny is because they'll ask her, like, a yes or no question.

Mm-hmm. And she'll go on, like, a speech for, like, three pages about... Like, do you want to read this, um... this let me let me share my screen with you yeah for sure um so do you want to be laura lumer or um
