Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun's little hiney just got absolutely spanked in front of the whole country last week in a Senate hearing called "Boeing's broken safety culture". We had a very good time talking about it, and even cried a few times. We also have some good ideas on how to punish him, and who could take over as CEO. Plus, we've got some things about the looming AI power crisis, and more. Leave a comment to be featured as the comment of the week next week! And also, like this video! Thank you!

That's why. I write one sentence. Kill Ben. You're not even left-handed. You're not even left-handed. You need to write that down to remember that? I am left-handed. To kill me?

No, it's a daily affirmation. Oh, that's nice. What do you have a? it written on the mirror or something? No, in a little pen. I can't write in the mirror with pen. We did, uh, we did, for, for those of you who didn't see, um, highly recommend you go. Check out the latest meatball episode.

And then this person on that same, tune said quote fuck you Nick Doreen kicker is the most slur sounding

non-sler I actually gasped so not so much comment of the week more comments of the week yeah it's usually too if you like this

what the comment of the week yeah are you finding value in this I like it I find value I think it's fun

it's a great way to get people to comment and like and I like it all that stuff I want to know if they like it

yeah I think but also as we've pointed out, comment for the glory of commenting, not for getting the best comment. Be a soul commenter. Yeah. Comment from the soul. Like Rob, um, God, who is that surfer?

Rob. No, I'm thinking of Puppensuds. Remember the Disney movie? Brink. No idea what any of that meant. You didn't watch Brink? Did you watch Disney Channel movies? Nope, I wasn't a Disney Channel kid.

I was a Nickelodeon boy. I mean, you can watch both. Nope. Wasn't the type. Nope. Not me. Not for me. Wow. He knows nothing about...

I know nothing about the Disney channel. Soul surfing or soul skating. Well, Rob Machado. Rob Machado. He became known as like a soul surfer because he gave up on like the professional touring. I don't give a rat's crap. Eddie would go out. A rat crap ass about... Eddie would go, you know. Pro surfing. Is that the guy? Yeah, that guy died. I think that's the thing is Eddie did go and then he died.

Unfortunately, Eddie did go. He did go and then he like drowned to death. Sometimes you shouldn't go, is that? Yeah. I've been leaving comments on skateboarder TikToks, encouraging them to wear helmets. You just type, like, helmet much? There was a guy who, like, bombed a hill. And, and he...

For those uninitiated, bombing is... When you go down a hill on a skateboard. And I just left a comment saying, like, hey, brother, please wear a helmet. You never know. You don't want to end up, like, a vegetable or dead. And I doubt... I balked my head today coming out. of the shower. Oh, man, speaking of barks, you know, we got a, we got a huge episode for you

today. We've got, uh, Boeing CEO, Dave Calhoun got trotted out in front of a Senate hearing, and he got very hard spanked in front of everybody. It's the annual sacrifice to the, to the congressional hearing. And, um, let's see. Then after that, we've got a little bit of, uh, the AI. We got to talk about the astronauts stuck in space. We're going to talk about, it's not as bad as it sounds as it turns out. They're loving it up there. They like it. Yeah, they actually want to be in there.

It's good for them. Space is good for astronauts. It gives them more power. We're also speaking of power, talking about the AI power crisis. That's also kind of, when you really look, is it a crisis? I don't know. It seems like a big crisis. It seems like it's got hints of a crisis.

Kind of like the hint of flavor in your fucking spin drift. Just a hint. Don't come at spin drift. Unless you want to rift. in this podcast and then if we've got time a little bit of crypto stuff and some market stuff

oh we'll have time we're going to talk really quickly I'm looking down to tell me what's going on tell me what's going on so listen to not to bed in me tell me what's going on

tell me what's going on Ooh, ooh, I just got to get, I got to get in gear here. And how do you do that by flapping your little bird wings? Lapping my little bird wings and doing a little monkey scratch, just like this. Oh, he's in gear. This is how monkey scratch. I like doing this. For the audio listener, you just got to imagine what a, okay, that's enough.

Yeah, you're right. Thank you. Did that upset you or something? No, I just wanted to stop. I liked it at first. All right. So the Boeing CEO, Dave Calhoun, got hauled in front of a Senate hearing last Tuesday, and the name of the, I didn't know that they named these things.

Oh, they always named them. They named it Boeing's broken safety culture. There were relatives of people who died in those two 737 max crashes there. Also, that's the thing I want to point out. It's very fun watching, you know, Josh Hawley and these guys really lay into Dave Calhoun, you know. but it's also it's extremely frustrating nothing's nothing's really going to come of this I mean the Department of Justice is weighing

whether or not they're actually going to enforce because Boeing basically skirted by taking any responsibility Can you not use gendered language? What? Skirted? Get out of here. Sorry.

Taking any responsibility for those crashes is in a 2021 settlement and now the government is basically saying that, you know, you violated the terms of the settlement agreement because you have not done anything. You've not done anything. You've not kept up with the anti-fraud. You've not put in the systems in place that we asked you to. And the families are desperate. They're saying, please.

Yeah. But, you know, prosecute them to the full extent. Prosecate somebody. Because they could be on the line for like $24 billion. If they actually went for it, there could be C-suite members in jail. You know what I mean? Yeah. But don't hold your breath.

And as a sweets guy, I would love to see a C-suite get... In jail? That's where I prefer the C-suite. That's where I'd prefer all-suggery, tasty treats because just keep them out of my reach, you know? Lock up the skills. So just before this, the Senate panel had just released this two. 204 page report, and it was just chock full of allegations, namely from a whistleblower named Sam Mohawk, which is a really cool name. Very cool name, especially when you're working on an aircraft company.

Yeah. I mean, what's the word for when your name can dictate who you are or what you can? Oh, God. Bless you. Bless you. Bless you. He's okay. I don't know where that came from. Um, it's like an aptonym or something like that. Yeah, something like that. Well, he, he didn't end up working in hair. He ended up working in aerospace. You know, it's another one that always confounds me? What? Shrapnel was just the guy's name. Shrapnel? He, what, shave off some pieces of metal and was like, we need to call this something. He named it. It's named after him. But you think, when you hear shrapnel, you're like, what's that? Pieces of metal stuck in people after something? I want to be named after something. Or something named after me? How about a child? There's, there's, uh, so the same moment. Uh, so the same moment. Uh, so the same moment. Uh, so the same moment. Uh, uh, so the sam Oh, hot guy. His whole thing was that he was pointing out that defective parts are very possibly going into 737s. So the reporting, this 204 page report includes, among other things, allegations that damaged or inadequate parts, aka they're called non-conforming parts. So they could be stuff that's broken off, shrapnel. They could be parts that they've determined just aren't up to standard.

So he's alleging that they could be being used in aircraft production. And generally, they're horribly mismanaged. Like, they should be, you would think that just scraps are just tossed, but no, they've got a catalog every last little piece. But this horrible mismanagement of all these parts and pieces, these nonconforming parts, are actively being hidden from regulators. Like, there's a quote in this report that said that on one occasion the FAA was scheduled to come in and check on specifics, including the nonconforming parts. And they just had like a big bin of them outside.

And I guess Boeing higher-ups ordered him and other people, like, go hide them. Dude, you got to hide your bin of. You got to hide your bin of. Scrap. Scrap. Crap. But so it's a problem that they're being mismanagan. because if they're not being tracked, then they could very well wind up in airplanes, which is...

Which it seems like they do. Yeah. And so the report also includes John Barnett's quote, may he rest in peace, the one who killed himself. He said, we don't have time to follow... Allegedly. Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. Allegedly.

The quote is, we don't have time to follow... This is him like paraphrasing what he was told. We don't have time to follow processes. We're building airplanes. That was a common thing. theme all the time. And among other things, the report includes details on removals of quality inspections

and all kinds of testimony and documents supporting all these applications. John, get back to your bin of scraps. Yeah, get back to the scraps. What's a pejorative for a necterine kicker? Yeah, you fucking nectrine kicker. So that meeting

followed, so the meeting that just occurred with Dave Calhoun followed a previous one. where the FAA administrative chief, this guy, Mike Whitaker, nobody, that's, that's, I don't feel bad for Dave Calhoun. Why would you? I don't. He's paid $33 million a year.

I just have to preface it with that. To run his company into the ground. But it's funny because nobody's talking about what the FAA said. This Mike Whitaker guy said, hey, we're partly responsible for the safety problems at Boeing, saying that they've been two hands off and that they've been more focused. on paperwork than actual boots on the ground. Sure, it's not just Boeing. I mean, as we've gone over with,

it's this whole cyclical thing where it's like slashing funding to regulatory agencies and then just having Boeing and other big airlines just run their own safety checks and all this shit. It's like, yeah, there's a ton of people at fault here, but Boeing can absolutely step up and do better. I wonder if they have a good snack budget. I'm sure the snack budget goes crazy.

You think that they've got good... Do you think they have emerald nuts? Ladies and gentlemen, it's my pleasure to announce that smooth sack summer is officially upon us. When you're playing in the summer sun, make sure you're groomed from pubs to bum.

You got to give them one thing so they can hang on.

Yeah. So I remember at BuzzFeed, we had bagel Fridays. That was nice. And you were like, I'll hide any bit of scraps. Yeah, I will, I'll, yeah. Which is funny because all the scraps are apparently painted. red to like so that there's no question about whether or not they're scraps and yet they still can wind up in the wrong places and you know who's really in for it with those what um emirates

i don't understand why aren't the planes red no you absolutely fucking dunce they're not they're famously white they are white with like hints of of the emirates logo is in gold and then they've got the flag, which is like black, green, and red. There's definitely red all over. Not all over. Emirates. What's white and gold and red all over? Look at this. Look at this. Does that look like

it? Yeah, look at that. Yeah, that's in the fucking tail section. Scrap. Oh, yeah. Okay, great. Yeah, very good. So, as Dave Calhoun walked into the, into the room, all the family members were there, including some just general protesters.

family members of the victims were shouting things like shame and like fuck you that would feel good they weren't saying that but they were saying they were shouting like shame i would pop off a couple fuck yous i'd pop off some fuck yous uh there were people there protesting the war in palestine saying stop sending weapons to israel and like you're making bombs someone else said uh oh wait that's not one of my jokes um someone else yelled make safe planes for commercial flight yeah you thought that was your joke? My joke was one guy was heard shouting, make the planes bigger. Well, you kind of stepped all over. I know I fucking did. God damn. I wish, I feel like it wouldn't really hit. Take it from the top. No, I can't. Let's just move on. I like that joke. I would have been there

going, make the planes bigger. Nice. I, the triple seven's good, but I think you could do bigger. Make a bigger, bring back, bring back four engines. Make Boeing, Great again. Oh, God. So let's watch a little bit of what he started with, which was his apology. Let's hear some of his apology. To those who lost loved ones on Lionair Flight 610 and Ethiopian Airlines, Flight 302. Oh, he's standing up.

I would like to apologize on behalf of all of our Boeing Association. spread throughout the world, past and present, for your losses, their gutlidge. And I apologize for the grief that we have caused. And I want you to know we are totally committed in their memory to work and focus on safety for as long as long as we're employed by both. So again, I'm sorry.

I could be a CEO, I would like it. No, you couldn't. You're not a psychopath. No, but he's a legitimate. I'd let my little heinie get spanked. Hull me into Congress, I'd be like, sorry. I'd turn around and I'd give a really heartfelt speech. I'd take my 33 million. I mean, it's not included in here, but he did follow up by saying Hawk Tua, but nobody laughed.

Nice. Because he was trying to, like, smooth things over. He was trying to break the tension a little bit. Yeah, unfortunately that. He let Hawk Tua spit on that thing. Yeah. Yeah, but again, nobody laughed. I think you can't hear it, but someone did yell,

you should be in prison at the end of his little thing there. Just like, you should be in prison. That's a good one. That's a pretty good one. This is going to ruin the tour. What tour? The world tour. The world tour.

So Josh Hawley, who's normally a giant, what would you say, on the scale of pieces of shit? Still very high. Yeah, it's that meme. the bald guy worst guy you know just made it a great point oh yeah yeah sure

well so preemptively here Dave Calhoun was meant to when he was hired he was hired after these max crashes so when I say like

I feel bad for him in scare quotes don't do it does that piss anybody off they're so pissed they're feeling piss anybody off he was he was hired

10 months into the 20 month grounding of the max he took over in January 2020 so these things had already happened but he had also already been working there it's not like he was just being fired from with it it's not like they were like hey can you come take over and guide us into a new era but it's just really hey you were around when we did all this corporate malfeasance and bad shit totally it's just it's just funny and wild to me how like the fAA is I'd say equally to blame for for a lot of this

uh but like I mean the whole thing it's like the fucking it's somebody's It's like when Pete Buttigieg comes out and it's like, somebody do something. Oh, sure. So regarding his $32.8 million earnings this year, a 45% increase over last year. Senator Josh Hawley asked Mr. Calhoun exactly what he gets paid for. And this was his response. Let me queue it up here. I get paid to run the Boeing company.

Yeah. So, you know, that's deep. Help me understand that. I mean, do you get paid for transparency? Is that part of, is that one of the metrics for your income? I think the board counts on me for transparency. Really? Because you're under investigation for falsifying 787 inspection records.

The Boeing's under criminal investigation for the Alaska Airlines flight. You were investigated by DOJ for criminal conspiracy to defraud the FAA. This is all in your tenure. This doesn't sound like a lot of transparency to me. Oh, this is when you You tug on your collar Yeah, that's going to be a goo for me Oh boy

Oh, Babu, let's see, what else? What about safety? Is that a component of your salary? It sure is, Senator. You know, have you seen the reports that Have you seen the reports that your planes are fucking deadly and scary, actually? Have you seen the reports

that a kid got his butt sucked right out? he didn't get his butt sucked out oh that's not to my knowledge sure a child didn't get his butt sucked out it was actually his shirt he lost his phone while he was playing a Kim Kardashian smartphone app game that you use to make that

door piece that fell out of the sky Josh Hawley FAA went and toured the facility they found one door seal being lubricated with Don liquid dish soap and cleaned with a wet cheese cloth and another was being checked with a hotel room key card. Does that sound like safety to you? Yes. Senator, I think our relationship with that particular supplier has been

well documented, reviewed by the FAA and most certainly us. And I'm very intent on acquiring that company so that none of that ever happens. He's talking about spirit aerosystems. Not one more kid's butt's going to get sucked on my lunch. No. How can you assure the American people that their children, that they're boys in particular, that their can play the Kim Kardashian game in peace? Yeah. Boy, I tell you, though, if they were paying him

to have a shiny bald head, he sure would be able to say he earned it. He'd be clearing $100 million at this point. Well, they pay me to have a shiny bald head, and I think I've earned it. Look at that thing. Do you think he looks like he polishes that? Is that how all bald heads are? I don't know. Do all bald heads shine like that?

Maybe he just moisturizes real well. Let's see. All right, let's cut to 342. Let's see. What do we got here? Give it to us. Oh, come on. X, don't do this to me.

Don't do this to me. Dude, X can give it to you. Oh, my God. F and, oh, this is unbelievable. Thanks a lot, Elon. Thanks a lot. Dick Wad? Dick Wad, you fuck.

The profits increased at all? I haven't had any profits. So he asked him about the stock performance. He said, I don't even look at it. I don't even look at it. What is the stock? It actually hasn't, I mean, since he joined, I think it's not up that much. I'm sorry?

I have not had any profits. Yeah. You know, I think the truth is, Mr. Calhoun, you're not focused on safety. You're not focused on quality. You're not focused on transparency. All of this is in the record, but I think... I think you're focused on shining that bald head of yours. I think you were jealous to that kid's high score on the Kim Kardashian game.

And you had to put stuff to it. You're focused on exactly what you were hired to do, which is that you're cutting corners. Which is to suck our boy's butt. You are eliminating safety procedures. You are sticking it to your employees. You are cutting back jobs because you're trying to squeeze every piece of profit you out of this country. Great assessment.

You're strip mining it. You're strip mining Boeing. It was one of the greatest American companies ever. It has employed thousands of people in my state. And you are strip mining it for profit, shareholder value, and you're being rewarded for it. You've got a huge raise, a huge increase. So it's working out great for you. For the American people, they're in danger.

Their kids' butts are. The workers. The American boys are. American boys are in danger. American boys are... Whistleblowers. They literally fear for their lives, but you're getting compensated like never before.

Don't you think maybe your priorities are misplaced here? I mean, don't you think maybe it's time to get back to focusing on making quality planes and paying your workers well and taking care of the little guys who got you to where you are? Of the little boys' butts? That's not a rhetorical question. Senator, I don't recognize any of the bowling you described.

Really? Really. Where's his eyebrows? There they are. Oh, there they are. And I want to assure... You don't recognize the Boeing that has airplanes falling out of the sky that has had two Max's crash that has had pieces of doors fall out of the sky

that have had whistleblowers come before they've sat right where you have sat and told us. These are your employees who have told us that when they... These are the engineers, by the way. Are you an engineer? I'm not sure. Yeah, they are. And they have said that they're not listened to, that they're retaliated against, that they're threatened.

That's the reality of Boeing today. That's your company that you have created. Now, I don't recognize it either from the company it used to be. If I was the center, I would have wheeled out a bin of scraps and said, do you recognize this? Do you recognize this? These are scraps.

Oh, gang, let's talk a little bit about investing, shall we? Because that's usually at the heart and soul of what this show is about. And I got to tell you, there's really only one platform that I trust to get the complicated never-ending streams of data out there, right?

Hell yeah. Bye, everybody. I'm going to say something, and you're not going to like it, but I bet Dave Calhoun's little butthole is real tight right now. I don't like it. You want me to give you the context on where that comes from? It's a meme within my family.

So, we're doing Ben's family meme time. So in 2001, 2001, 2002. I feel like people's butts puckering during sticky situations is a, common? I didn't know that. My brothers didn't know that. But in, I believe it was whenever the Lakers, Kobe and Shaq Lakers went up against the San Antonio Spurs, I think it was the 2000 finals or the Western Conference finals, whenever it was, my dad's good friend. Bobby Fingers. No, that was Bobby Badfingers. I'm not going to say this guy's name. I'll say his last name because it's too funny.

his last name was burger and just like a hamburger no sure and he was like six foot six and he had glasses and he was thin and he had a deep voice and he was a

gulgling burger long beach six foot six no he doesn't live in Long Beach he was visiting Bill but he you mean first name no his name's not Bill Burger

but but he he uh the the Lakers were losing this game. And they were showing close-ups of Kobe and Shaq. And unprompted we're sitting there with this guy

and he just goes, yeah, I bet Shaq's butt holes real tight right now. And we were like, what? Bill Berger, what the hell did you just say? Bill, what did you just say? And he said, that's what happens when you get scared. Your butthole gets real tight. And he was joking,

but he delivers his humor is incredible. It's bone dry. And, um, Makes sense. We still, 20 years later, we will still say, yeah, but his buttholes real tight. With the name like Burger, the Germans don't really know how to deliver a joke. Oh, yeah. Or the Dutch.

My God. I went on a river tour. This kid, they peppered in so many jokes, but the driest, brutal. Did I ever tell you that German guy that I worked with named Max? No. I worked at this German company, and there was this guy named Max, and he spoke like this. this was his voice and he was very nice but he was so incredibly dry like this and one time I was like two weeks into the job and there was this producer woman who had gone out of town

and she had a bowl of candies on her desk and I took a couple candies and I went and sat back down at my desk and he was sitting across from me he leans up over his monitors and he goes where did you get those candies and I said oh from Claudia's desk and he goes oh I would not have done that if I were you. And then he sat back down and I was like, wait, what do you? Oh, my God. Does she have cameras in there? And he stood up again and he said, oh, I was just joking. It's probably okay. It's like, cool, Max. Thanks. Anyway, let's see. What else? That, it's this is that. But meanwhile, you're getting paid a heck of a lot of money. It's unbelievable. If anybody's come out of this.

He sounds like Mitch McConnell. If Mitch McConnell were young. Yeah. I wonder if this is how Mitch McConnell used to sound. He used to be that hot, too. Why haven't you resigned? Senator, I'm sticking this through. Senator, I'm too scared, frankly. I don't want to, I'm petrified at you right now. I'm proud of having taken the job.

I'm proud of our safety record. And I am very proud of our Boeing people. You're proud of this safety record. I am proud of every action we have taken. Every action you've taken. That is a crazy fucking thing to say after the year you've had. Yeah. Wow.

I mean, absolutely loser dip shit. Hey, I did pull up the stock price on Moomoo, which is my favorite little old investing platform. Yeah, what did it tell you? Yeah, they got some good new user bonuses, so go check out that link in the description, BTW. But it's surprising that Boeing stock price has, even back during the 737 crashes, it didn't do much. It's because Wall Street's sitting there going, more butts, more butts. We need more butts to get sucked. if they could do something about the the sound of those toilets flushing now here come the comments

saying that he's always got to bring it back to toilets i deserve it this time i deserve it i used a porta potty this weekend and i did not like it here come the comments i did not like it no one likes it yeah nobody does you poop or piss i have never in my life pooped in a porta potty Are you serious with that? I did poop at a... Look how pissy gets at the... I did poop. Are you serious with that?

I'm talking about as a dog. Look how pissed he gets. I did poop at a... It was an emergency. Early one morning at an Arco in like South Central just off the 10 freeway. And I, that was a very humbling experience for me. Pissing at the Arco?

Shitting at the Arco. Shitting at the Arco. Shitting at the Arco, the Ben Con's story. oh boy all right so one of the other things john calhoun said that he never spoke to any of dave dave dave calhoun said he never spoke to this guy's poor wife i feel bad for his wife maybe she's a bitch i don't know i bet maybe she's the one who's polishing that head it's probably such a thrill for him to get home after this though oh yeah i mean if you thought he was getting spanked wait till he got home his poor ass his poor wife's ass is probably probably. Oh, you think he spanks her? What? You, what? So now we're thrown out

accusations that this guy's a perpetrator of domestic violence? Or it's like sexual. It's sexual. Okay. Yeah. No, it's sexual. Anyway. Boy, it is hot here in Los Angeles, folks. So he said that he never spoke to any of the whistleblowers, but this was troubling to me. John, Barnett, the guy who committed suicide, said that he got 20 calls a day from his former supervisor who said he was going to, quote, going to push you until you break. That guy's got to get a life. I mean, but also, so disgusting to read when he either did break or they fucking broke him in a different way.

Also, John, he's calling you 20 times a day. By the third call, you got to know who it is. Don't pick up, dude. I mean, but if your supervisor's calling you, 20 times. I mean, you can't just be like, I'm actually just going to fuck you this. Oh, I thought that it was after when he was blowing the whistle, the supervisor

was like, you better shut up. I'm going to push you till you break. Boeing's going to, they're going to make a bowling movie. Ben Affleck's going to make a bowling movie, I swear. He's going to play that guy. John Barnett? Or the supervisor? Barnett. William H. Macy?

Yeah, that'd be pretty good. Or Matt Damon. It's going to be one of those guys. William H. Macy's still alive. Remember when he blew his brains out in Boogie Nights? Yes, I do. It was very upsetting. So... What do you say?

We blow William H. Macy's brains out one more time. That's me pitching my Boeing movie. I don't like that at all, dude. I really do. Okay, Fox just passed. Senator Richard Blumenthal said, ultimately we should want Boeing to succeed. So they're like trying to...

They do. They want accountability, but they also want changes to be made. He acknowledged the victim's family's desire for criminal prosecution, which could still be on the table. There's some headlines even today about it. Here are demands. Because literally, you have to stop killing whistleblowers. You got to stop the whistleblower killings at check. Okay, we got that. What else do we have to stop doing?

No more butts getting sucked. No more butts getting sucked. How did it turn into his shirt getting sucked off to his butt? This poor little boy. I hope he's not trauma. He's very likely traumatized. If you ripped out the Kim Kardashian game from my hands just a little too quick, I'd be traumatized.

You don't know if my shirt gets ripped off while it's happening? I wonder if that's going to affect his perception of Kim Kardashian going forward. And as much as these fetish guys that we had on the Meatball episode are likely turning past trauma into something that they... Is this kid going to grow up to be some airplane fetishist? I hope so. Man, I hope so, too. Can you imagine the art that's going to come out of that?

It's going to be beautiful. Because, yeah, they got 346 dead people, and literally nobody is being held accountable for it. So, like, obviously, Dave Calhoun is not going to jail. Guys like that never do. They should. Do you see his wife's ass? That thing is cherry red.

So I would like, I think that we need a new form of punishment here. I think, other than just fines, I think, much like the James Bond villain, I think that we should make them eat poop. They should make a poop soup out of all the victims' families poop. That would be so sick, honestly, if, like, every time there was something like this,

it was like bringing the shit. Bringing the shit called her, the poop. And everybody, Dave Calhoun's like, no. Like, nope, it's either this or you forego your entire, your entire stock package. and you get one year in jail. Would you eat the poop? Yeah.

How much poop? And the poop feeder's got a real sense of humor doing the airport. Oh, yeah. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Yes. Days. Yes.

He's got a captain hat and everything. He goes, clear for day off. Uh-oh. The Macs software has cost a plane to stall. It crashes. He smearing all over his cheeks. Yeah. Oh, man.

If you don't open your mouth, you're just going to make it worse. Every time you don't open. open your mouth. That's one more scoop. Well, that's two. I'd eat the shit. I'd eat the shit, too. I'm not cut out for jail. They should make him also get the 737 Max logo tattooed on that forehead, on that head of his, on his head.

I wish we lived in like Harry Potter World because they just turn him into a bug or something. Or like a fart-flavored jelly bean. And his poor wife's got to eat it. Like, why are you punishing me? I don't know, lady, but eat up. BARTLEEN Oh, baboo. Well, so they are searching for a new...

I don't know why when he said, why don't you step down if he said that he's committed? Because he's stepping down in December. I guess he's like, I'm going to see out my term. Yeah. Well, so they're looking for a new CEO. They've apparently... harassed the CEO of GE Aerospace, this guy, Larry Culp.

Come on, do it, Larry. Which is one letter away from gulp, which is probably how he feels like gulp. I'm not doing that fucking job. Thank you. Yeah, I heard that, you know, I heard Boeing asked him to be CEO by writing his name in his own dog's blood on stream. That's one way to do it. Yeah. And he's like, oh, it's Boeing again.

his wife with her cherry red ass The CEO's just loves spanking their wife's hands She comes out Hobbling out Honey, what is it? Boeing again They killed the dog this time Boy, they must really want you to be CEO

Yeah, I'm not gonna fucking do it I said they should force John Calhoun to do it Who's John Calhoun? It's Dave I mean John, fuck John Barnett John Barnett It's ghost? Yeah Oh yeah, so we do have

I think it's so easy. Why don't you give it a try? Yeah. We do have some suggestions for Boeing, some potential new CEOs that they could tap to fix their image. I think that they should ask Ryan Reynolds. They tell him that he can cuss and he can put his face on every airplane, which I think would be a big sell for him. I said Justin Timberlake from the social network. That'd be pretty good. 346 dead isn't cool.

You know what's cool? 346 million They should consider the hawk to a girl Since she's She's just the biggest fucking thing In the entire world right now Or I think that they could really do well With just a woman with huge boobs

Honestly That is a CEO Josh Holly would go If she was up there he'd be going, mamma me. He wouldn't be asking you a question. Have you seen the old Hooters Airline? Yes.

Turn it into Hooters Airline. Well, they're not in the business of being an airline. Yeah. Once they get that. They should put giant boobs on the airplane. Imagine that? Turn those engines. I'm actually imagining it.

Turn some engines into, turn those engines into some boobs with real physics where they jiggle. Oh, boy. yeah, yeah. We have fun here, don't we folks? Oh, yeah. Oh, boy. So let's get to those astronauts, those poor, you got to see this, though. So, God, what? Just brutal timing. Boeing's like, look, I know how we get the country behind us again, right? We build a rocket ship so great, and everything's going to go to plan. It gets delayed over and over. Well, you know what the name of this thing is? It's called the burning, no, it's called the burning asteroid. The Boeing burning asteroid.

No, it's called the Starliner capsule. And so they finally get this thing in the air. Yeah. And then they can't get the goddamn astronaut to them. Well, here. So it is a capsule. It's its first mission to orbit carrying these astronauts. To go to the International Space Station.

Yeah. And NASA has said it would still be capable of returning them home if absolutely necessary. Right. What do you mean if absolutely? Don't they have to come home? Well, yeah, but they want to study what's going on with the, like, helium leaks

and all the problems and stuff. But check this out, man. Look at this. Here's the Starliner. Watch, watch this window right here. No fucking way. Are you sure that's real? Yes.

I think it's from CBS. They wouldn't lie. it's just a fucking window oh oh okay this is the people the Wikipedia on Twitter said this is not a window against the pressurized

compartment of the capsule it is just a protective cover for the window which is removed before the launch either way well I sit corrected

you know what Boeing you got one you got one over on me but I'm pretty sure at this point they're just like you're up there indefinitely it was like

first we'll get you back June 18th well no it's not just you're up there. It's Russia, it's the United States. It's the international space station. All right, buddy. Keep going. Yeah, they're supposed to come back June 18th. And then June 22nd, then June 26th. And then they're like, I don't know. We'll get you back at some point. But so it's, the capsule has had five helium leaks. So now the Astrodots can't make funny voices. They were up there talking the nets.

Well, everybody. Jesus Christ. And five maneuvering thrusters went dead and a propellant valve failed to close. And apparently these are necessary systems to get the capsule away from the ISS and position it to return. And you know whose fault it is,

according to this Republican guy? The Russians. No, take one more guy. Who do... Elizabeth Warren. Pocahontas. No, no, no, think more generally. What's a...

Woke. Woke shit. DEI. One more. Black people. Yep. DEI... This is from Mike Murphy, who is a conservative voice,

former mayor and candidate for Gover of Minnesota. Gover? Governor. Governor. DEI rockets, brought to you by Boeing. I hope Elon Musk and SpaceX rescue our stranded astronauts.

Boeing is a prime example of the failures of being a publicly traded company that puts its shareholders above quote. I mean, he's right about that. But what, what do, what, DEI is just a code word for they hired some black people. Right. And now they can't get the astronauts back. Oh, boy.

I, I watched the, uh, the big rocket go now a few days ago. I watched the big rocket go now. It was cool, man. Man, I tell you. Oh. Ben? Want to watch the rocket, big rocket go now? That's an old Simpsons joke.

Is it? Yeah. They're doing a big series countdown, 10, 9, 8, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Big Rocket, go now. It's really great. I missed it. It's from an old Simpsons episode. Dang, I was going to say something about being.

Don't worry. We'll just wait. Just looking at my notes here, and I got a woman with huge boobs. I like that. Makes me want to Google CEOs with big boobs. See who's out there We're going to have No, it's going to give me

some kind of problematic stuff probably Let's talk about that power crisis I know it's annoying because I'm having such a fun time and this one This will be fun This is fun This one I find infuriating I'm sure people have seen it by now

Because now it's everywhere But I think the Washington Post was one of the first places To kind of WAPO WAPO was one of the first places To do a big story about Which I'm surprised that This hasn't really come out

sooner about the environmental impact of AI. And it feels so similar to... Bitcoin. Bid coin. Exactly. Crypto. When people were talking about, you know, these large data centers and they're like, it's all worth it. We need it.

And, you know, I definitely remember at the peak of all the crypto craze and everything, it feels so silly, right? When people are like, this is the way of the future. It is our new currency. And now it is way worse for the environment. It's going to exacerbate everything. But this feels so crazy because we get, you know,

a shittier search engine. We get dumb songs that are kind of funny sometimes and like AI Jesus pictures on Facebook, all to just like accelerate. I mean, dude, they're like in all of these things, they're talking about how many coal plants they're either like reopening or extending the life of coal plants that were supposed to be closed down.

And it's just like, remember that Dave, when Dave Chappelle went on S&L after Trump was elected and he was doing that joke where he's like, this motherfucker was talking about coal, coal! I'm like, because they're flooding all, And, like, basically getting the rights to electricity and they're needing to turn on other sources so they can keep the grids alive.

They're like, well, I guess we've just got to fire up these fucking coal plants. Do you think the AI would willingly be like, yeah, just kill me? You just ask it? You're like, hey, we've got this big problem. You actually, like, are horrible for the mayor. They'd be like, yeah, fucking destroy me, dude. They had, I mean, I wish. They had clips or like little screenshots

of them asking the AI about its energy usage and it's just like, oh, I don't know. I'm not like a human. I blah, blah, blah. Well, so these, a lot of this is data centers. That's when we talk about AI and power consumption, think data centers. Big old Sam's Club, Costco, Walmart size buildings, consuming power. And I've got a multifaceted view of this. So, of course, According to this Washington Post article, data centers like these will account for 8% of total electricity in the United States by 2030, tripling their share today. So today it's what, about two and a half percent then? Yeah. Something like that. Other estimates were at like closer to 10%. Yeah. And so they're saying that new solar and wind will meet about 40% of that

while the rest will come from natural gas. But so there's, I think that there's, I'm just choosing to look at the the silver lining with this, which is that it's sort of forcing us to not innovate, but... Yeah, but that's the thing. The Washington Post article and like the thing in the lever

and all of these articles, in Bloomberg, they're talking about how they are chasing technology that people have been chasing for decades. And like, you know... That's one of many. Are you talking about fusion? No, Bill Gates' new... Is it helium? or whatever. They're trying to like split atoms in a way that I don't even, I mean, I don't

understand it. But from what like scientists are saying, they're like, this is a pipe dream. And they're going to claim that it's all going to be clean by 20, 28 or whatever. Well, there's a big, there's a big push for nuclear. So the DOE is investing, it's a small amount, but they're investing $900 million in small modular reactors. And one of those, one of the companies that is meant to be doing that is Sam Altman's SPAC that just went public and got approved. The ticker symbol's... One of it, so his company is OKLO. And then there's another one whose ticker symbol is N-N-E. And that thing just went from $5 to $35 over the last few weeks. This is what I was talking about. This is from the Washington Post. Microsoft is betting on an effort

to generate power from atomic fusion, the collision of atoms that powers the sun. A breakthrough that has eluded scientists for the past century. Physicists predicted will elude Microsoft too. The tech giant and its partners say they expect to harness fusion by 2028, an audacious claim that bolsters their promises to transition to clean energy, but distracts from current reality. In fact, the voracious electricity consumption of artificial intelligence is driving an expansion of fossil fuel use, including delaying the retirement of some coal-fired plants. Yeah, I think that my hope is that AI is going to help actually figure this out and solve. That's what this motherfucker's whole thing is Bill Gates is going out and being like,

AI is going to help us make it so we can make the cows fart less. Right. Suck my dick. I mean, this is all so ridiculous. I just sent, it's funny because, like, I was reminded of the Dave Chappelle Cole thing. I just sent you, like, this is what we get so we can fucking boil the planet. Oh, yeah. I don't even want to play it.

It's just Dave Chappelle, it's a fake. it's a fake thing of him talking about. But they're like pretty great, huh? But so just to jump ahead real fast, there was this Financial Times article that we were talking about that has all these AI stocks that have failed to outperform like Nvidia has.

You got Snowflake, Salesforce, Intel, Adobe, which is kind of getting spanked on there. like subscription stuff, but there was one investment manager who said, I think, the right thing. He said that long term, the promise of AI is there, but a lot of the benefits will come gradually. But the market is pricing in immediacy, especially when you look at Nvidia. And a lot of people keep comparing it to during the dot-com bubble, Cisco. There's a company, it's still around today, Cisco systems. No, Cisco.

Okay. Cisco basically was the company behind building out the infrastructure of the internet. And early on in the late 90s, early 2000s, its stock went like parabolic, just like Nvidia did. I think you talked about Sun Microsystems. No, Cisco. Okay. I think they acquired Sun Microsystems at a certain point.

But they might have also been correlated to them because there's obviously not just one company making everything but the the this in terms of in video going up it is it does make sense because they are quarter after quarter just like beating and raising and just like wow we're selling way fucking more of these things than we ever could have imagined but to back to what we're talking about uh you're going to like this because it's a it's another acronym and you guys No, I go fucking nuts for acronyms. Congress just voted to advance nuclear energy development

in the United States. It's called the accelerating deployment of versatile advanced nuclear or clean energy act. Dude, those congressional interns are working overtime on these. It's called the Advance Act. And it's just waiting for Biden's signature.

I bet he signs it pretty soon or at least talks about it in the debate, which I can't wait for. I'm terrified. And its purpose is to speed up the development of next generation nuclear reactors and position the United States to lead the international market. It directs the Department of Energy to streamline its process for approving the export of American nuclear energy technology and cut down regulatory costs for companies

trying to license advanced reactors. It also accelerates licensing review for new reactors at existing nuclear sites and streamline environmental review process. So that streamlined environmental review process has the detractors from that saying you're you're just doing what the government does and you're by streamlining you're going to fuck the environment they're also like obfuscating all of the reporting and stuff they're not really reporting how much energy they're using and all of the stuff it's i mean i think all you can do is like root for them to you know it's they figure it out but it's such a long shot I mean, here's more, in the face of the dilemma,

big tech is going all in on experimental clean energy projects that have long odds of success anytime soon. In addition to fusion, tech giants are hoping to generate power through such futuristic schemes as small nuclear reactors hooked to individual computing centers and machinery that taps geothermal energy by boring 10,000 feet into the earth's crust.

I mean, you look at EVs, though, for example. Like here in California, I look at them all the time. They're trying to, I know, they're everywhere. They're trying to mandate that by, I think, 2030, no new car sales will be internal combustion engines. It'll all be electric. But as we've experienced here during some heat waves,

the grid here in California can't handle people charging their cars. So it's like, pray tell, if one of these things is meant to, like, help us as it should, but then to charge them actually does still require, and to get the minerals out of the ground, that's one of the concerns here, is like mining and processing uranium for fuel is a big is a big problem that can have negative impacts on the environment so too with like lithium for electric vehicles yeah it doesn't look good man nothing looks good the nice thing is here's the good news you no longer have to worry about the AI getting to a place where it turns us all into paper clips yeah because we'll boil ourselves

alive way before we get to that bless you bless you the environment bless you something about cat pet dander today is just getting to me so one of the other concerns about uh nuclear is where to store radioactive waste how about the ocean man how about those bins over at bowing how about the bins yeah dump that shit there put it in the ocean it's big enough we can handle it i mean i mean the problem it's also like well first off you know all these headlines now talk about how many just like how much energy it's using. Obviously using the internet was already a resource expensive thing, but these new things, like collectively adding AI-generated answers to all Google searches

could easily consume as much electricity as the country of Ireland. A chat GPT-powered search, according to the International Energy Agency, consumes almost 10 times the amount of electricity as a search on Google. What if we just told the Irish to chill out so we can get our... shit. Meta burns the annual equivalent amount of power as seven million laptops running eight hours every day. But how many Irish does that? I need it in terms of Irish people. How many Irish people does that translate? I have no idea. The other thing is we haven't even talked about like the water they're using for this. One paper estimates that the globally the demand for water

for data centers could be half of the, half that of the United Kingdom within the next several years. And so like, it's just like they don't even. We need to. We need to. to invent a new kind of water. It's gone, man. That's the thing. They had some, whatever. It's all so depressing. It's just like all for fucking... Well, for our final story, I'm going to give you something even more depressing. In the out of Crypto Corner.

Beepoo, beep. I don't know that this is real. I think it is. This is from this person's Twitter account. Don't get tricked on it. We always get tricked. I don't know, man. So this person's been... This person's like a...

Stop getting news from people named Mia. It's not news. It's a personal anecdote. So on June 23rd, this person tweeted, all in, I bought another $10 million worth of Ethereum for the coming week. Here's my reasoning why I think this trend has been carried in an excess and why we'll get another positive week before blah, blah, blah. And he gives all these reasons.

And then is this the very next day? Yeah, the very next day. I lost it all. $12 million, my whole net worth, gone forever. I should have never touched leverage. This was a huge mistake. I thought I could become one of the greatest. I really did.

Now I'm left with nothing. My girlfriend left me. I lost all the money my dad gave me. I can't get rid of my drug addictions. It's truly over. There's no coming back from this. Goodbye. See you in my next life.

I'm going to see if this person, uh, tweet. Nope. There's literally nothing else that this person has tweeted since that. Okay, this is obviously a fucking... I hope it's, uh, I hope it's not real. Oh, yeah, yeah. Guy used Huh

Someone said This tells us nothing Screenshots can be fake Because he screenshot it The guy writes Are you fucking Not a great word Buy bit is an open order book

You can literally see every trade Anyway Well Folks don't do that to yourselves And also don't use leverage like that Unless you want to eat fat bags Yeah unless you want to Eight fat bags

In which case You know Absolutely but I think that's what else is there we've got really nothing well I do want to say we had nothing to do with the Fisker bankruptcy a lot of people are blaming

a lot of people are blaming us because of our acid video where we said that we could literally tear the car apart with our bare hands which I still stand by that thing was made of plastic bottles and I mean plus we were on drugs we could have done it oh yeah I had a super strength

coursing through my veins. I had dumb monkey strength. How cool would that have been if we just... Tore that thing up? What are they going to do? Sue us, especially now? Ask us to leave. We should go do like they did to the Arby's

in Hollywood that shut down and cover it in graffiti. That's the next video we're doing. Can these two guys on acid tear apart a fiscar? That actually would be really fun. That would be sick. We get a fiscer and we take acid and we have to disassemble the fiscar.

With just our hands? as quickly as we can yeah can we use weapons definitely what weapons gun any you got okay you have to own them now currently so like a kitchen knife I have baseball bat I have an axe you have an axe damn what are you trying to grind wood oh man all right well let's see we got a lot for you in the in the bonus here we're gonna we're gonna be talking about the hawk to a girl because we have to Are we? Do we have to? Yeah, we do. A lot of people are wondering if we have to. We do. We're going to be talking about Justin Simberlake. I have got a favorite British guy, weird Elon sperm guys. And yeah, man, I think that'll just about do it, Bob. I think that's it. So thank you very much for tuning in. Thanks, y'all. Gang, we'll see you next week.
