Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry.

on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast or wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Elf Beauty, founding partner of iHeart Women's Sports. Hey, I'm Gianna Pradenti and I'm Jermaine Jackson-Gadson. We're the hosts of Let's Talk Offline from LinkedIn News and iHeart Podcasts. There's a lot to figure out when you're just starting your career.

That's where we come in. Think of us as your work besties you can turn to for advice. And if we don't know the answer, we bring in people who do, like negotiation expert Maury Tahiripour. If you start thinking about negotiations as just a conversation, then I think it sort of eases us a little bit. Listen to Let's Talk Offline on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Mr. Emunize over there. He's salty, dude. I can't. So Aaron Rodgers.

The last time we talked about him. Who are you? Who are you? I'm Aaron Rodgers. Oh, okay. So I'm interviewing. And I'm John McAfee. And you're Jack Orbian, as I called you the other day.

Jack Orbian. Jack Orbian. And Miles Gore. We're here. Nephew of Frank Gore. But like Aaron. So we're talking about aaron rogers the last time was because he did his achilles tendon like the first fucking play of his jets

career for the non-sportos out there this is like one of the great nfl quarterbacks who also has like turned into a anti-vaxxer who um lied you know lied about whether he had gotten vaccinated by saying yeah i've been immunized. Did you get the vaccine? I'm immunized. I'm immunized, yeah. No further answers. No further answers, Your Honor.

And then he made a big deal about going over to the Jets, like forced a trade from the team he played for his whole life over to the Jets, and then had an Achilles tendon snappage in his first couple minutes playing for them. But he likes to provoke. He likes to get people looking at him and saying, hey, what's this guy's deal? What's this guy's deal?

He looks like he should wear sunscreen. He kind of looks like shit. Yeah. Dude, I would wear sunscreen. How old is he? What's this guy's deal? He looks like he should wear sunscreen. He kind of looks like shit. Yeah. Dude, I would wear sunscreen. How old is he? Yeah. How old is he? Do you know?

He looks like he's mid-50s. He looks like... Oh, my God. We're the same age. Yeah. You're looking better than Air Trend Rogers. I could tell you that much. He looks like his blood type is nicotine or something.

Like, that's how bad his skin looks yeah anyway so aaron rogers his his jets played travis kelsey's chiefs okay and if you didn't hear the news whatever is that he's that apparently i said something i read something where like his family was like it's actually kelse but we don't even fucking we don't even correct people anymore i've never heard that before. Yeah, read that when I was like, who is this guy? But anyway, Kelsey, Elsie, whatever, the dude that's with Taylor Swift. And the reason why Sunday Night Football's ratings have gone through the roof

because Taylor Swift is there cheering him on. So the Jets played the Chiefs, the Jets lost, but Aaron Rodgers goes on this podcast, this show, Pat McAfee show, to talk about how his Jets, you know, I guess we hung in there. But then he's taking shots at old Travis. He said, I think there's some sentiment

that there's some sort of moral victory out there that we hung with the champs and that our defense played well. I mean, Patrick Mahomes didn't have a crazy game and Mr. Fizer, we kind of shut him down a little bit. Now, why would he say that? Because old Travis did a PSA to be like, get your vaccine.

Yeah. So he's angry. He's big mad at that. Mr. Pfizer is a fucking loser. Did we ever get the details on how he was immunized? Was he immunized through piss, through the ingestion of piss? Because that was one of the cures right yeah i don't know he he probably it was probably some form of hydroxychloroquine and hydroxycodone

i don't know i don't know just as long as it and hydrox yeah and hydrox the off-brand oreos yes um mix with yeah i prefer to think he does have the vibes of a piss king like of somebody who uh smells like piss at least so oh yeah yeah there's an off chance that that was why he was immunized was because he's been doing urine therapy for a couple years in therapy yeah but like i think it's it feels very salty like you know as a guy who with Shailene Woodley you know you're like oh that's a off-brand power couple but I think he had to behold the

power of Taylor Swift and I forget who is it on the team that was saying that the tickets have gone up 40% was that I think maybe Justin was saying the ticket prices at Chiefs games have gone through the roof just for the mere chance of spotting Taylor Swift so yeah you and shailene wasn't doing that aaron sorry unfortunately it doesn't work like that and maybe he's salty because he drank piss it's just

outside theory but i have yeah yeah you know yeah there's a article in the washington post titled the case for and against taking your shoes off in the house i want nothing of this this is like the case for and against ending white supremacy right i don't know a world where having your shoes on in the house is a benefit unless it's like something to do with your physical health or like your foot, your, the condition your feet are in. When I take my shoes off, they just spill in every direction. My feet are incredibly soft, like jello.

I need the shoes to keep them together. They're amorphous. And the only way to keep the structural integrity is in a shoe. My shoes are non Newtonian liquids, non Newtonian substances. And they, if I walk around without shoes, it sounds like just wet puddles sloshing around

it's just like weird like in i so okay famously you may have heard i'm i'm japanese so we don't wear shoes in the house uh and this is like culturally in the asian home it's like no one wears shoes in the house because it's mostly because it keeps your house cleaner you know you're not tracking in a bunch of shit and it's much easier to maintain a home where you're not trotting in with your shoes from the outside world um but like so when i saw these things like the washington like oh the washington post might have a case against it the case against taking your shoes off in the house or what nonsense it's like it could hurt your feet because your feet are so delicate because you're mr glass from uh unbreakable like wait really it was so so like they're like look the

first thing was like germs really aren't a thing like there aren't you know there aren't like real pathogens they're gonna be like oh i i laid down on my floor and got sick because we have shoes on um but like so they're like that's why like that was sort of a reason for or against taking your shoes off yeah and then the next thing was just like can it like really hurt your feet man it said going barefoot for extended periods can lead to strain on your feet particularly when walking and standing on hardwood floors yeah i i asked aaron rogers about that he said you actually should shouldn't even wear shoes when you're playing football uh yeah it's uh yeah this is this is wild so i grew up in a shoes on household and married into a shoes off household right and going back to shoes on household like when i go home for a holiday

feels very very strange to me yeah it just feels feels dirty even if it's not which also i feel bad walking on carpet especially if i walk on carpet like in someone's home with shoes i'm like are y'all okay are you sure are we in a public museum what is happening why are we why are we allowing this sort of violence to the carpet um yeah it's and also the studies of like you're not gonna get sick it's not gonna be like still might get dirty and also i feel like if you're just like i don't know how longitudinal these tests are right like it you know it feels like it's like kind of a quick because i mean quick i know that they they got a loose quote from a podiatrist in silver spring maryland shout out blair high school but like i that's like such a narrow case when you look at

billions of people across the earth that are not like y'all we had it wrong with the shoes off thing we just got an epidemic of like plantar fasciitis now from taking our shoes off i will also say as somebody who grew up in a shoes on household and like you know in my throughout most of my youth my shoes went on in the morning and didn't come off until nighttime and when they came off they were stinky my dogs were barking um i am a very sweaty person so like you know oh yeah so uh one of my kids is pretty sweaty and i think it's a good little break for him to like you know when he gets home from school takes shoes off he's like oh my socks are all wet and like he takes them off rather than just like letting that shit stew yeah man pickle

them toes you don't want to pickle them you want to let them breathe let those toesies breathe again better for your foot skin i see like yeah if you have like specific to your like balance or feet sure obviously like you could wear something like that, but don't miss me with this stuff of having your shoes off and make your feet hurt. I wear shoes so infrequently, even when I go outside, her mask is like, it's 105 degrees outside,

you can handle the black top. I'm like, I've been doing this. It's okay. And now, so they say, the verdict from the Washington Post, wear supportive slippers or indoor only shoes. Oh, like Mr. Rogers. Yeah, I think that's, but that's right.

You want to do that? Go ahead. That's what my Korean in-laws do when we go to their house. They have, yeah, they have slippers. They have slippers for me. They have slippers for everyone. My mom shamed me for not having slippers at my house. Oh, really?

Like, especially when she comes to see the baby and stuff. And she's like, you really, she brought her own now she just parked but am i supposed to crawl on my hands and knees i know is this like is this what you want from me well i'm like it's fine mom i just wear my bare feet or my socks and she's like you're so american oh my god all right easy spits on your floor um uh donald trump's rhetoric seems to be getting more violent as he faces more trouble you know he said that people should shoot shoplifters shoplifters should be murdered not long before that he insinuated the military general he personally appointed as chairman of the joint chiefs of staff should be executed for treason he said that people should go after like one of the the clerks one of the clerks yeah judge

and his fraud trial and then there's just also you know he shared the courtroom drawing of himself uh next to jesus his co-defendant assistant counsel or co-defendant jesus looks pissed and also looks like he's been using the aarongers, like, regimen of piss therapy. Jesus doesn't look great in that picture. No, no, definitely not. Well, because he's pissed, man. Because, look, it's just wild to be like, can you believe it? Me and JC got caught up in a RICO trial.

Well, it's not about the RICO, but he's trying to be like we're out here doing taking it on the fucking chin for y'all yeah it feels very desperate when you're having to evoke christ as your co-defendant in like a janky social media post to try and hey look we've all been there having to evoke christ as our co-defendant um but yeah it does it feels like one of those things where we're up close and personal with it because it's happening in our daily news. But from a distance, it just feels like, okay, this person is getting more and more desperate, more and more violent, more and more messianic. And a big chunk of the country claims they'd die for him. It feels like we're headed towards a weird thing it's let's call it weird yeah let's call it weird uh it's a weird one that uh like a like a

people like a killer ball like a killer ball of trash coming towards you you're like yes i mean i know that's dangerous but that's kind of weird, right? Yeah. Killer ball of trash. That is so weird. And then we get picked up by it, and then we're just part of the trash ball. Oh, but guess what? Now, breaking news, Judge Arthur Engeron has now basically hit him with the gag order. Yeah, it's a gag order. No, you're not allowed to threaten the people who work for me. He said, personal attacks of any member of my court staff are unacceptable, inappropriate, and I will not tolerate them.

Consider this statement in order forbidding all parties from posting, emailing, or speaking publicly about any members of my staff. Failure to abide by this will result in serious sanctions. Keep our names out of your fucking mouth, sir. This has been a thing that legal analysts have always been saying. When is he going to get hit with a gag order like this every trial because he does this every single time he's like oh that judge is a fucking communist fucking spy or whatever uh this time he was saying that uh judge anger on his clerk was uh chuck schumer's girlfriend because they took a picture together um but anyway so k-i-s-s-i-n-g yeah you know look at these two um the uh has any has

nobody hit him with a gag order yet is this the first to my knowledge i feel like every because every time we're like oh what are they gonna do what are they gonna do you know like okay or they do and they don't do anything but this is like i mean this feels like it could be something especially with this judge who already hates his lawyers and like even this case he's like y'all think we're stupid like shut especially when he's like there's no lawyer he's like y'all you didn't even ask for one you said you didn't even want one you didn't want a jury right so what the fuck and now you're complaining that no we're not doing we're not not doing this. He did give a nice little nod, smile and nod to the camera. The full house music over it

was a nice touch by whoever made that meme. Well done, the internet. Let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.

Listen to Dream Sequence on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back.

We're back. And we want to bid a fond farewell to Breakfast Cereals. Pour some milk out for this one. What's that? Pour some milk out for this one. Yeah. So the sales, we did talk about how Breakfast breakfast cereal sales had gone up during the pandemic, but they've, they're back to falling and they've been falling for some time,

despite the fact that, uh, you know, people were going through something during the pandemic and, you know, in the mood for a meal that was no more complicated to prepare than add milk to bowl yeah yeah i mean i hate to see our breakfast cereals go the way of alicia keys and just be fallen like that but you know i think a lot of us have moved on from i i haven't like i said i

haven't bought cereal in ages for myself i I know you're a big Siri over here. We're a big Siri in our household. Our kids love it. And it makes sense when you look at how much sugar is just naturally in milk. Of course they love it. They're just like, whoa. The best combo ever. The one sweet thing we get to eat all day.

But yeah, I don't know. Sales for granola bars, protein shakes, and fast food breakfast sandwiches have gone up. That's all me. So buy your fast food breakfast sandwiches stock. Yeah, fast food breakfast sandwich futures. You want the derivatives. You do want the derivatives. That's right.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. you want the derivatives yeah you do want the derivatives that's right um and also the other like big brand cereals such as general mills and post are getting killed by like some of these new generic or private label brands like because they so so the conclusion of this article is that well the the only cereal that still sells well is like Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa Pebbles and stuff like that. So the reason cereal sales are going down can't be health concerns. But I think that's incorrect. I think there is still a market for dessert breakfast cereals. But I think people have decided that overall it's not like a healthy food for kids you know right it's

not the thing that you're going to feed your kids unless you're a lazy uh asshole like me um so like i don't know i think i think fruity pebbles and cocoa pebbles that's all millennials probably you know i mean like if we're talking dessert because like i still have friends who are like I think Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa Pebbles, that's all millennials probably. You know what I mean? Oh, for sure. Because I still have friends who are scumbags with the cereal. Who will take a salad bowl as their fucking cereal bowl and just kill a half a bag. Yeah. And you're like, oh my God.

They're like, it's better than ice cream. And you're like, oh shit. You can't move after you do that though. Yeah. I have experience with this. I think it's just not a good way to start your day. The thing is designed to be eaten in the morning

and having a big bunch of milk and sugar in the morning is not a great way to start your day. Teach their own, man. I'd also miss this, but apparently Tropicana tried cereal designed to have OJ poured over it and the takeout

reviewed it and said it is not good. In fact, to tie it all back together, it does look like your cereal has piss on it. It's just like a weird... One of the key details of cereal milk combo is that the milk looks good, like next to those colors, you know, like it's like a fun little bit of a nice backdrop for it.

Accidental pop art, you know, and then, but orange juice with things in it. Not so great. Not so great. Also, like, what are you going to, you want to sip that weird ass orange juice at things in it not so great not so great also like what are you gonna you want to sip that weird ass orange juice at the end no no they tried hey you tried you tried you know that's all we can ask for folks yeah um let's talk about alabama uh there's a police shooting in alabama that uh of 39 year old stephen clay perkins killed by police and like the cnn article is like he had a gun he definitely had a gun according to police and they came and he had

a gun and that was it nothing else but it's like a very murky case because the police say they came to this man's house because they said a tow truck driver claimed he was threatened with a gun right and then when he came out of his home they said he had a gun with a flashlight on it and even though he had his hands up they shot him right and like and that's in neighboring security camera footage of like him with his arms hands up being shot now to looks that the most so a lot of people are like that looks like a flashlight doesn't look like he's holding a gun with a flashlight and so it's very murky right now because also not only that his family is like why would a tow truck come to our

house because a we have literal receipts that he's on time with his car payments this car was not even eligible like it wasn't there was no back pay owed on this car or whatever like it was it was up to date um so now they're demanding people obviously demanding the body camera footage to be shared but you know alabama has some cool laws like other states where you know it's really up to law enforcement you know if they're gonna if they're gonna really give that up then there's really no other body that can intervene here to get the body footage released and body cam footage released and it seems like for now we don't know what the state of that request is going to be um but it would offer a lot of clarity to many grieving people and

outraged community members who are like what the fuck is going on here uh if it is what it is then let's see it if not then we need some fucking accountability here uh but it's just like another you know the second you're like oh you know things might be getting better no they're nothing nothing changed after you know three summers ago unfortunately and like like we've seen there's shootings have only gone up yeah his brother said this has always been his biggest fear being shot and killed by police just, just being a black man in America was his fear. Which, yeah, of course it would be. It's a tangible threat.

Yeah. Every black man, every black person who leaves their house with that fear in the morning like i feel like that is underrated when people just think about what life is like you know oh yeah this country and like the psychic toll of leaving your home and being like it may happen yeah today uh i think is is like a sensation i think most people don't understand and again, we'll see where this ends up. But, you know, a lot of people have been protesting and, you know, a lot of like onlookers in the area like outrage because they are like saying like the local news coverage was like changing like every hour to like accommodate like one version of a police story or their, you know,

their take on what happened. So looking for, looking for answers, we will see. All right. Well, those are some of the things that are trending on this Tuesday, October 3rd.

We are back tomorrow with a whole last episode of the show until then be kind to each other. Be kind to yourself. Yep. Get the vaccine. Don't do nothing about white supremacy. And we will talk to you all tomorrow. Bye. Bye.
