One of your favorites. One of our favorites. It's the hilarious and talented Guy Montgomery! Guys! Oh my gosh. Fellas! So good to see you. I needed this. I needed this guy. I really needed it.

I can't tell you. I need this too. You and me both. We both need this. I needed this guy. I really needed it. I can't tell you. I need this too. You and me both. We both need this. Because we would never think to talk to one another outside of the recording window. We're wasting gold there, man. I would never check in on your guys' lives if it weren't for these sort sort of approximately 90 minute hangs exactly exactly but 90 minute hangs are long that's longer than i hang with like most people you know i know but

the issue is that we have an agenda you know like for me to milk the information about how your personal lives are going i have to do it through this the person the context of this local news yeah exactly we'll let you know how we're doing how are you doing man how's how are things uh Do it through the context of this. Global news. Yeah, exactly. We'll let you know how we're doing. How are you doing, man? How are things with you? How's the family? How's all that?

My family's good. My life is good. I feel lucky. Things are going pretty good for me. I'm in New Zealand. Yeah. So that's a different country from you guys. Yeah. No, I know.

And it's a different side of the world. Different hemisphere. Different times. Different times. Yeah. So that's a different country from you guys. Yeah. No, I know. And it's a different side of the world. Different hemisphere. Different times. Different times. Yeah. We're on like some sort of vernal or, you know, solar day. Like it's like equinox of some sort, I believe. No, Jack, it's National Single Parent Day.

Sorry about that. Never mind. I'm sorry. Oh, my God. It always times out with the equinox. Sorry about that. Never mind. I'm sorry. It always times out with the equinox. But no, I'm going okay. I'm sort of, every now and then, I check in on the news out of America. Yeah, yeah, yeah. How are you guys going?

Well, that's what I want to know. Because I only know from the outside. But it looks like the country's being run by Boeing. I'll tell you how good it's going, guy. Just merely talking to someone who's in New Zealand is giving me relief. It's making me think that doctors should prescribe it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. The contact tie of somebody who lives in New Zealand

is just enough for me. I need that Kiwi contact. I don't, the guys, we've got some guys in charge at the moment who I think they're doing the New Zealand, the watered down version

of what the Republicans do. You know, like they're doing, it's not perfect. Yeah. Yeah. You've got a new regime. We've got three guys,

three guys they got together and these are not good guys. And they're like, they're coming out and they're doing all this. They're not even doing their own stuff. It feels so cynical. They're just repealing the stuff that was in place previously. Right.

Oh, did they campaign on being like, we're just rolling. Anything Jacinda did, it's gone. Yeah, kind of. Anything Jacinda did, we're going to re-Cinda. That's right. They're good with words, but spiritually, that's an accurate assessment. But, you know,

we don't let it get us too down. We try not to. Yeah, I mean, look, you guys are absolutely helping us. The guy we don't like is 55. So, you know, he's still at least cognizant of what he's doing. He's a young man. He's a boy.

He's but a boy compared to our guys. It's like you're being drunk-driven into the apocalypse a little bit. Exactly. I don't like, you know, I look at what's happening there, and I've whittled it down to these same two old guys from like eight or four years ago. It's like, oh, okay. Those guys are still hanging around. Oh, them again? Yeah.

Those guys? That was a bad show last time. Yeah. Run it back. It's like when you find out they're like those teachers from your high school or something are still alive and working.

They're like, they're still fucking out here. They were old when they were teaching me. Yeah, exactly. You're like, this has to be elder abuse. You can do whatever you want in their class because they're so fucking old.

They didn't notice anything. I had that too. Yeah. Smoking weed. Literally just, we did it all. Sorry. Sorry, Mr. Falls. And unfortunately, we're actually not allowed

to talk about how old they are because that's not nice. But according to the Democratic Party. We're nice. We're nice. We're nice. We're nice. That's great. I mean, even Obama's like 62 now. I couldn't believe that. That's wild. Yeah.

That's like, you know. It's not nice to talk about age because time will come for us all. Yeah, that's right. Unless you are a whistleblower at Boeing. But otherwise... Then Boeing will come for you. Time will come for us all. Yeah, that's right. Unless you are a whistleblower at Boeing. But otherwise, then Boeing will come for you. Yeah, time will come for us all. That's one of time's big things. When I'm in my early 90s and running for president,

I don't want anybody talking shit about me, you know? I just... Yeah. Don't you want to sit down? Who at 81, after you've made so much money, is like, ah, more yeah just sit down do you know how many shows they've made while you've been working yeah that just shows you what powers them right it's not even the idea of like oh yeah now i get to take a break they're like i only

run off of absolute power right yeah like jesus what a fucking dark reality god willing i want to be working at that age yeah i want to be working but i don't want to be in charge of the whole country i don't i want to be working like rito rita moreno was working you know that's right yeah she's like just shows up do a couple parts do her thing everyone's like god damn you're so good for you she's like i know baby now let me go home i'm yeah i need to sit on this money. How old is Jared Leto? Because that guy, he's older than you think. He looks young. He's older than Obama.

And it's because he's sleeping. Yeah. And that's what these guys should do. Leto is 52. 52. They should put Mr. Biden in one of his, in like a coma, a restorative coma. Give him a couple months off. Bring him out.

He'll be juiced up. He'll be fresh. Restorative coma. Give him a couple months off. He'll be juiced up. He'll be fresh. There's a lot of talk about body doubles right now because of the Kate Middleton thing. And I just, nobody would know the difference if you rolled out a different 90-year-old white guy. They all look about the same, right?

But you've got to have- all look about the same right and like you gotta have talk the same but it's a specific combo of biden's sort of like necrotizing flesh with his bad hair plugs and his like veneers that like i could find you one of those guys in florida like yeah so much of it is the veneers you just throw veneers on one of those motherfuckers, like nobody's going to know the difference. Hey, man, slick back your hair. Just have them call you Matt and Jack a bunch of times. Like, yeah, you're going to be like,

there goes the president of the United States. Come on, partner. Yeah. The news is crazy. The news out of your guys' country is just getting crazy. If it weren't for the fact that I know people live there, it is funny. I told you guys, I'm like, oh no, we've got boots on the ground in this country. That's right. We're undercover in this country. People of conscience undercover. All right,

Guy, we're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going to tell the listeners a couple of things we'll be talking about. We got new car pollution legislation in the U.S. It's not terrible. It's not great, which is about the best you can hope for. But we'll talk about that. New happiness numbers just dropped. Global World Happiness Report, which comes out every year

and the u.s is continuing to plum plummet wait what because americans under 30 are and this doesn't seem right but incredibly unhappy so i wanted to talk about this with somebody who has lived both places, both in the U.S. and elsewhere in New Zealand, which is at number 11 overall. The people under 30 in both of our countries are unhappier than the rest of the population. But I am curious to just get your perspective on this guy. Talk about Trump's money problems. We're going to talk about Australia's Trump's trump did you are you familiar with clive palmer oh yeah he yeah he's crazy guy super rich he's just throwing his money around he's what's he doing now i'll find out i guess we're just kind of introducing ourselves to him we didn't know about all the crazy shit the the big one is that he wants to rebuild the titanic exactly as before and that's a fun one and you know like he has a couple like

like he he's interesting because his ideas are actually the ideas that i might come up with if you like gave me enough enough money and enough time like There's some fun stuff. Another one was just turning an adult golf course into a miniature golf course, like in Caddyshack 2. You just saw Caddyshack 2 and was like, yes, that. That's great. So we'll talk about that guy. New crazy rich guy just dropped. All of that, plenty more.

But first, Guy Montgomery, we do like to ask our guests, what is something from your search history? Or you could also tell us one of the most recent things that you've screencapped, whichever one is more revealing about who you are. From my search history, I was just looking up a penis reduction surgery. Just trying to find some affordable options. Uh-huh. So I suppose that's a little, it's probably a little revealing. Reduction surgery. Just trying to find some affordable options. I suppose that's probably a little revealing.

What'd you come up with? It's tough, man. It's expensive. I know. I feel your pain. Finally, someone who can empathize. It's tough. I know what the enlargements go for, but what do the reductions go for? That's where they get you. They're twice as much.

And then they sell the muscle back to people like you. Muscle. I don't know. I just got a big muscular penis. Yeah. The most recent thing was I was trying to figure out why Sundays are spelled like an ice cream sundae is spelled different. That's a great question. And it was a German guy whose surname was Sunday in German, like Luntag.

I can't remember the word for Sunday in German. And he was the guy who came up with the ice cream sundae. He was a chef and he was putting out this ice cream dish. Sontag. There you go. And they said, oh, we translated it. And it was just spelled traditionally. And then somewhere along the way,

the reasons that still remain unclear to me, they changed to why do I eat? But, you know, I kind of like it. I do too. But that's what a journey you just took us on. Yeah, and it's not, it's like, that's,

that is the level of detail that would demand one doing more in-depth research. Cause that's just, you know, like I can't retain information. So, right. Yeah.

Yeah. It's, I, I guess I always assumed, Oh, it was named after Sunday because that's the most indulgent day of the week. No,

it's not. Why did my brain, yeah. Why'd my brain go with that? The reason i was thinking about that is after you get your penis size reduced they ice it in a sundae and then you get to eat all the ice cream you want you're yeah do you are you a are you a fan of ice cream sundaes personally um well no i i was it was uh all of my stepdaughter or daughter

was um she got a sund Sunday and then was just banging it on about the name. And I was like, I tried to get it. It's like an old style challenge. I can do this just with brain. Yeah. Then you're just lying. I could lie, which feels kind of creatively worthy.

Or I could give you the hard data, which we're all going to forget in a week. There's so many questions. So much of my day is just answering questions like that. They just border between inane and then so philosophically profound that my brain can't recover. What's after the universe? I don't fucking know, man. That's so good. can't recover what's after the universe we went to we went to no man good right we went to the circus like this incredible sort of circus from like this west african touring circus and we're watching it and they were doing the most like you know they're doing flips they're doing all the all

the crazy stuff they can do at the circus and halfway through olive just leans over and whispers to me she's like i think they practiced this and that kind of ruins the magic she only respects improvised arts she's like they didn't practice this it It's all improvised. You can tell that they practiced this. Any normal person would die attempting such a feat. That's amazing. What's something you think is underrated?

Underrated, I'd say changing your barber between every haircut. You know? I cop a bit of a stick for that at home because chelsea says why would you do this this is a decision that will have a bearing on your self-worth and you know how you feel about your career yeah yeah and i can appreciate that but you know it's kind of i just see i'm an opportunist i see a chef and i go in and you know it's it's if it goes badly

yeah it's disappointing but it's also kind of funny. Yeah. It's an adventure. But I had a new one the other day, and I'm like, you know, I'm fitting out hard up the front now. And I was like, I actually, I'm going back on my own underrated thing because I was like, oh, this guy, like, I said to him, I said, it's crunch time up there. Let's tread carefully.

And the guy, like, you know, usually they clickate you. Yeah. Usually they're like, oh, it's okay. You know, don't worry. But this guy was like, yeah, don't worry. It comes to everyone. I was like, you're not even going to give me a bone. Right.

Yeah, right, right, right. Yeah, brother. He's like, yeah, man, looks like we're in the 95th minute here. Yeah. Yeah. Feels like it too. But it is an adventure getting a haircut from someone new. It's just like, turns out I didn't know what I looked like.

I look like a different person if you just change the framing. Everything about me. Yeah, it's crazy. I don't want to go bald. It's crazy. It's, you know, I don't want to go bald. Right. It's happening. If I have a good year, I think I'll get those Biden plugs.

Oh, hell yeah. Even if it looks like it shuts down some of your other, like, neural faculties. Yeah, 100%. Yeah. You don't want to be going all the way into your brain.

It's like when Tobias Fionke got them and the body rejected them. The graft versus host is my favorite. What's something you think is overrated? Overrated? Having a giant penis. I think it can create problems.

I don't know. I don't actually have one today, so'm just gonna go with the joke you don't have a giant penis today yeah well i did yesterday yeah yeah a lot of it a lot of it that's coming your way is currently in a melting strawberry sundae i needed that fresh kiwi muscle, man. They shipped it over double quick. Just so much more roomy, you know? Yeah, because they don't tighten the skin. All these ear bubbles. I'm so sorry.

I used to have lower back problems. Yeah, I can't sleep on my stomach without hearing light pops. It's real bad. Sounds like packing bubbles. Yeah. We laugh, right? We love to laugh, us. We have fun.

All right. Let's take a quick break and we'll come back and talk about the news. I'm Jess Casavetto, executive producer of the hit Netflix documentary series Dancing for the Devil, the 7M TikTok cult. And I'm Clea Gray, former member of 7M Films and Shekinah Church. And we're the host of the new podcast, Forgive Me For I Have Followed. Together, we'll be diving even deeper into the unbelievable stories behind 7M Films and LA-based Shekinah Church, an alleged cult that has impacted members for over two decades. Jessica and I will delve into the hidden truths between high-control groups and interview dancers, church members, and others whose lives and careers have been impacted, just like mine.

Through powerful, in-depth interviews with former members and new, chilling firsthand accounts, the series will illuminate untold and extremely necessary perspectives.

thrive in the early years of your career without sacrificing your sanity or sleep. years of your career without sacrificing your sanity or sleep. Listen to Let's Talk Offline on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Keri Champion, and this is season four of Naked Sports, where we live at the intersection of sports and culture. Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry, Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese. I know I'll go down in history. People are talking about women's basketball

just because of one single game. Every great player needs a foil. I ain't really near them boys. I just come here to play basketball every single day and that's what I focus on. From college to the pros, Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's sports.

Angel Reese is a joy to watch. She is unapologetically black. I love her. What exactly ignited this fire? Why has it been so good for the game? And can the fanfare surrounding these two supernovas be sustained? This game is only going to get better because the talent is getting better. This new season will cover all things sports and culture.

Listen to Naked Sports on the Black Effect Podcast Network, iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Black Effect Podcast Network is sponsored by Diet Coke. And we're back. And the Biden administration just announced they're sweeping new regulations on tailpipe emissions that call for a 56% reduction in fleet-wide average carbon emissions by 2032.

Been heralded as the strictest ever limit on pollution from the nation's cars and light trucks. I hate when they fucking do this. It's the strictest ever because we've never fucking done anything worthwhile prior to this so the bar is subterranean like yeah every time if you're like it's it's the best we've ever done it's like because we haven't done anything before this right and we need urgent action yeah we have to be grading on a slightly different curve than like again putting ourselves up against the 1950s right right right right we just got rid of asbestos yesterday yeah you know for an um 81 year old gearhead to do that though you know you

gotta you gotta give it to him that would feel massive on the ground floor you're like this is nothing but for him he's like yeah he's a gearhead right like doesn't he have like classic cars in his garage with like documents about the jK assassination that he like forgot he had? Oh, yeah. Like in that old Corvette or whatever that he had. Yeah. Yeah. So what does it mean?

It means that some cars have to pay more tax. Yeah. So by the time it's fully implemented in 2055, this rule will have... What was that? 2055, you say? Okay. This rule will have cumulatively slashed more than 7 billion tons of carbon dioxide emissions by the time it's implemented in 30 years. And by that time, someone else will probably have instituted actual regulations that are a little bit stronger because by then we'll be totally fucked. So someone who's currently 50 years old will be stepping up to the plate.

Yeah. I mean, this was we talked about this a few weeks ago when they first began to wobble on this and sort of suggested that maybe they were going to relax these restrictions because we talked about the time he's like i need help in michigan right now bad maybe i will listen to the automakers that are lobbying me to go easy on them and then maybe that will help shore up some support if possible at the expense of the future of the earth obviously but yeah i think that's why a lot of people from the beginning, from even when they mention it, they're like, this is not good. Like you're caving right now already when this is the thing that everyone was like, this, this, this is actually good news for America.

But that was last spring. Some environmentalists have applauded the move, Miles. Other quote unquote environmentalists have pointed out that the regulation is much weaker than what was first proposed last spring with less strict adherence to year-over-year tightening and blah, blah, blah. You've seen Ghostbusters. You know what these people are like. Yeah.

Like the guy, the dickless joke, that guy? Yeah. That's who's talking. Just picture that guy, okay? Okay. All right. That's who these environmentalists is one climate activist said the regulation was full of loopholes big enough to drive a ford f-150 through uh which is very pithy but again just picture the guy from ghostbusters like

fuck this guy yeah i come on that a, that's a fine line. That was fun for them. They got a hard life. They write the environmental. This is also like kind of a wild thing too, because before this, the, the, the actual regulation could have been the biggest single step of any nation on climate. It actually could have been. And then they're like, yeah, it's's just basically it's like the opposite of what republicans do or like they come out with like the worst fucking most fucked up draconian bill and then they're like they're like actually

we'll do like the lesser thing and they're like okay and like democrats like yeah this is fucking revolutionary and maybe just slightly more just status quo. Yeah. I suppose your carbon footprint, your cultural footprint is so great. But it feels, you know, historically, when either things were coming better out of America or the propaganda machine was more powerful, the world would defer to you guys to be leaders on stuff like this. Oh, yeah. I don't think anyone in the outside world is like, yeah, well, we can bank on America to be in charge. You know who's nailing it right now? America. It doesn't feel like we're all, you know, it doesn't feel like

you're the big dog who will look to them and be like, you got this though, right? It's going to be okay, right? No, that now we're the ones who export like fashion, like you have a politician who you're like, yeah, it's like sort of the light, you know, the diet version of mega

like that's what we export our deputy prime minister he's called winston peters he's like but he's he's he's a lifelong politician and he likes the way our political system works is he likes to be the kingmaker so it's like it's called mmp and you vote for parties but like if both the major parties labor and national get a certain percentage, then they need to form a coalition. And his party is New Zealand First. And he straddles the political line. He's very centrist, and he goes with whoever's going to give him

the best job, basically. And he's getting older now, too. He's negotiated his way to deputy prime minister, and he is just up to no good at all he's just he's there's no ambition beyond you know yeah it's like at the table like to your point about america's influence like america's become like andrew tate or something where people like you're fucking listening to that guy like you hear that what are you doing dude it's like jordan peterson said the other day wait what yeah you listen to what dude shut the fuck up dude don't tell people that out loud you fucking freak

get your fucking head in the game yeah yeah you check in like you know you want to see what i like him saying every now and then just to be like where where is the subset of society at then you know if you got you click on a video on youtube or whatever and the algorithm can't discern like irony i guess or tone yeah so it's like you listen to one 30 second clip and it's like oh if you like that you might also love this yeah right yeah right i do just want to so the environmentalist from ghostbusters i i that movie really did fuck my whole shit up made by a libertarian. That movie was made like openly libertarian, like right wingers, like during the eighties. So I guess that's not that shocking,

but that character is back in the new ghostbusters movie again, shitting on the ghostbusters and claiming like not. Yeah. Like in the new preview for the latest ghostbusters, he's like, no, there were no eyewitnesses to what they did. They claim they saved the world, but nobody believes them. So like, again, they're just like doubling down on this character who's an environmentalist, like bureaucrat. The one thing that's like standing between us and complete ruination.

And they're like, ah, fuck this guy. Am I right? That's great. That's great. There's another Ghostbusters coming out. Yeah. We needed that. We needed that too.

I worry, you know, I know we're going to get to these under 30s, but it's like they will have nothing to feel nostalgic about because all of the media that they've been weaned on is our own nostalgia. And so what's left? You can't just keep cannibalizing the same thing forever, can you? Because you can't do a nostalgic reboot of

this Ghostbusters in 20 years. Yeah, we talked yesterday about how private equity companies are taking over the music industry and they've completely given up on like investing in new music they're just buying old song catalogs and then like making like musician biopics about them yeah you hear all these like electronic bossanova reruns of 70s classics yeah it's all elevated music. This is what the world is set to now. What if this Elton John song also had Dua Lipa singing on it?

That would be new. Technically, right? Why did Elton John think of that? You're going to love this Queen featuring 21 Savage track. 21. Mama. 21. Mama. queen featuring 21 savage track 21 21 yeah mama 21 mama mama 21 nothing is different except he's just in the background

all right oh god let's get to those under 30s so big news new happiness numbers just dropped. The U.S. continues to plummet down the charts. And it's not because of our over 60s. They're top 10 happiness. Dude, they're going, weren't they climbing up the charts? They're like, yeah, baby. When you look at how the baby boomers have just held on to their money and held on to power. the baby boomers have just like held on to their money and held on to power and yeah yeah it kind of like if if you wanted to make a materialistic argument for like the philosophical materialism argument for around this it would be pretty easy because the people who are most unhappy are the

under 30s who have terrible job prospects and it feels it feels vindictive for the over 60s to be getting happier you know yeah i think it's like a great example of how like wealth redistribution is working it's like it's also happy we're taking your happiness from down here and now it's ours and it's so fucking great we drank your milkshake and it's fun. Yeah. Yeah. So the U.S. is at 23, 23rd happiest overall. And the 60 and older are 10th happiest. The 30 and under are 62nd happiest. They're coming in at 62, like far unhappier than anyone else's 30 and under in the top in the top 25 that's that is unbelievably low isn't it yeah it's canada's also pretty unhappy they're down there with us at 58 but they're

yeah because she had a neighbor yeah yeah it's by osmosis where's mexico i don't know where mexico is actually let me see i'm trying to think of like how radioactive it is so mexico is coming in at 25 there are two spots behind us in the overall unhappiness but their 30 and unders are the 22nd happiest in the world they're 60 and older are 33 33rd so okay so they're actually like on the same in the same general region they're not 60 seconds like they're not incredibly unhappy at young ages and then incredibly happy at older ages so that the family next door that strong family unit they've always looked at being like why can't we be more like this it's crumbling and they're like it's actually it's pretty it's not so bad here yeah Yeah. In New Zealand, you guys are kind of in the same boat

in that you're oldsters, 60 and older, are sixth happiest. Yeah, they'll be. You're 30 and under. They are creaming it. They are locking our entire country out of the housing market. The only ones who can afford groceries. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And their guys, these three guys, they all got into government. So they'll be, you know, they're creaming themselves up and down the country on these eight-lane highways that our government are obsessed with building. Yeah. Eight-lane, wow. I do just want to say, first of all, eight-lane highways are sick. We have them all over the U.S. It's actually an exaggeration in New Zealand, but I realized in your country that that's a real thing.

He came up with the most obscene number he could. And we're like, oh yeah, yeah, you just been on the new 105 expansion? Yeah. You ever try and cut across one of those? Makes you feel alive. From lane 8 to the exit. Any young person

who is torturing themselves by being cognizant or even peripherally aware of what is happening in the world and our specific countries, I think, of course, is, you know, and those are the people who are going to fill out these questionnaires or these forms. Respond to. They're going to be. Yeah, they're going to be unhappy. But the people we're not talking to are the people who are oblivious. Yeah. Who are drunk

yeah are you too drunk to fill out kids survey those are those people are happy yeah yeah i would say that i don't think happiness is is a good goal for anyone so i think i think this is like i think sometimes people react to these sorts of things and are like, well, young people just don't know how good they have it. And they should find a way to be more happy by wanting you to go outside more. And it's like, well, you've built, you've kind of bricked us into our homes with roads that aren't walkable and no public spaces. And the pollution, too. Sometimes bad shit happens. Sometimes you're living in a world with bad values

and you're stuck inside a system that values corporations over your ability to, for instance, feel safe when going to school. And the problem in that completely hypothetical scenario is not your unhappiness. Your unhappiness is the sane reaction to that what's happening yeah yeah but i do think it's interesting that the u.s just continues to fall down these charts i mean it's just also funny like you'd think at some point when people if

they were concerned like how do we get like the top spot finland right again like what and they say and then they go and they dig deep what is it about finland what are they saying makes them so fucking happy it's the high levels of social support the fuck are you so happy about finland yeah pushing them in the middle of the chest because they help you out with shit okay dude yeah was that a year of paid paternity and maternity leave if you're a newborn you like that do you you cuck you little cucks yeah guess what in america in america you got to be balling as fuck if you get cancer because that shit is expensive bro yeah yeah try that that's one of the last things hey you're in america one of the last things you want to do

is get sick you're out of your freaking mind. You're going to be sick? Nah, dude. Work till the wheels fall off. Learn a lesson from Boeing. Yeah. Lithuania has the happiest young people, presumably because they just love to hoop so much. And it's either basketball hoop up pretty much anywhere.

Then all the Grateful Dead stuff. Yeah. Was it just that one Olympics when they had those uniforms uniforms that were tied that was so that was so sick but uh just having been both places guy any any thoughts on like a difference in the happiness of say new zealand and the united states any any differences you notice just generally i think in it energetically we're quite different people i do i do think that this happiness thing is generational and you know i i think it's a i can't see any way that the trend is going to stop so i think i i mean in terms of the under i am i am uh almost woefully out of touch with the youth. You know, I don't really know.

I don't know where they're at. I think everyone's battling because we are in a cost of living crisis here and it is unbelievably expensive and there appears to be no respite for the people who need it. Like, they're not. How does that, like, manifest with, like, teenagers? You know, because, like, I feel like you look at how teenagers are. When you're

when you're 35 years old and you don't have a teenage child or right right you know they're very difficult group to hang out with without looking unbelievably suspect but i mean like you know in passing when you're in the town square yeah with my backwards cap and my music band t-shirt no as i i i don't know i think i mean in terms of energetically say even just in auckland like last year we had the this the through summer which is our summer now which we're on the tail end of its autumnal energetically it feels good here because last year the climate was so destroyed. We had historic flooding and it rained for the entirety of the summer.

I mean, this isn't even interesting, but this is just what it does to the city. This year we had good weather and so even though it feels like the infrastructure around us is collapsing because of who's in power and the decisions they're making, the energy is a little bit better. Person to person, everyone's walking around

and they're smiling more. but i think you know privately everyone's struggling getting out of doors but you know and then if i think of i i think if i think of an america i can see why you would be unhappy because it feels like you've got no agency to to do anything to improve anything yeah you know the happiest people are so old and also holding on to power and control so aggressively. What are you meant to do? Joe Biden says he doesn't have power and agency to do anything. When he tries to do something, he's like, damn, man, my hands are tied. What do you want me to do, man? This Netanyahu guy, man. I told him, hey, Jack,

you better knock it off but he won't what am i supposed to do but anyway yeah i just sent a few more missiles yeah yeah watching six months of leaks where it says biden is becoming increasingly impatient yeah oh good on you bro yeah thanks the revolutionary oil yeah hey a washed pot never boils So everybody just chill out Let Joe cook You know what I'm saying It's so incremental

I feel like the next headline like that is going to be like Privately Joe Biden is Quote pretty ticked off At Benjamin Netanyahu And it's like yeah okay I can't cook under pressure. Everybody get out of the kitchen. Get out of the kitchen so I can

get my mind straight and figure out if untold death of innocence is a good or bad thing. Just give me a moment. Give me a moment. And there's these damn induction hobs. Yeah. I can't figure out these induction hobs. That's right.

Well, go take a walk for your own happiness, but also don't Yeah, I can't figure out these induction halls. That's right. All right. Well, go take a walk for your own happiness, but also don't make happiness your goal, because sometimes... Yeah, because you'll lose. ...it's the same to be unhappy. Yeah. Don't make happiness your goal.

Happiness, you know, there's concepts that we're all taught about. Don't pursue that. I mean, fuck that, dude. Just trying to be a baller. Nah. Just accidentally stumble into it. Yeah.

All right. Let's take a quick break and we'll come back and talk about somebody who seems very happy. His name is Clive Palmer. Yeah. He is an Australian billionaire and he's got a lot of Trump in him. We'll be right back. billionaires. And he's got a lot ofed.

And we're back. And sing it out. The Titanic's been in the news for years now. Since who knows when. Probably like right after they were like, we're sending an unsinkable ship across the Atlantic. I feel like it was already big news

when they said that. But boy, when it actually sunk the first time, that must have been. Wow. Man, 112 year news streak this thing's on yeah i can't believe it i'm really panic yeah unbelievable so it's been in the news recently because uh first of all there's a guy in florida who has a room full of nearly 3 000 titanic vhs

tapes and multiple homemade jack dawson fuck mannequins oh Oh, yeah. Or mannequins. Yeah. They are anatomically incorrect. Just the neck. Yeah. This one looks like Grady Dick on like fucking draft night with the long neck. Well, who's going to tell him that? You know, he's been working on this.

This is the one thing he's doing. Yeah. Yeah. This guy who said he said titanic has always been my favorite film and i've converted my home office in florida into my personal titanic museum the 2682 tapes cover my walls like wallpaper i have my own jack dawson mannequin too yeah what are the other two things then if he only has one mannequin until he finds out it was based on a true story

this guy doesn't even he's not even a fan of the boat he just likes the movie he's a fan of only the vhs's yeah yeah have you seen titanic no never seen it i just like these little tapes they come in the double tape box that thing is kind of neat that was a fun thing at one point on the internet having like seeing people on social media like young people find out that titanic was based on a true story you're like wait what wow no fucking way you're like yeah way no they're like one about the james cameron one with the with the book thinking that yeah no come on and now you're telling me Avatar wasn't based on a real story. Yeah. Okay.

Sure. Right. So this guy, Clive Palmer. Yes. He's also a Titanic fan, evidently. Huge Titanic fan. And he is relaunching. So he's a fan of the boat itself.

Yeah. Not just the film. Yeah. He is relaunching his Titanic two. Uh, the two is typically using Roman numerals project, despite the fact that his plans to painstakingly recreate the doomed cruise ship have failed twice before.

Not to mention people might be a tad wary of any Titanic based tourism promoted by reckless billionaires. Yeah. I feel like that was the last one. any Titanic-based tourism promoted by reckless billionaires these days. I feel like, wasn't that, that was the last one went really bad. It's good. It's Darwinism, isn't it? Like a bunch of people who are like, yep, yep.

I got this thing. Exactly. We don't have enough life rafts. There are engineering problems. Everything will be exactly the same. And then we'll just see. Do you know how annoyed he's going to be when he's going to try and sail this thing into an iceberg that has melted? It's like the ship.

What the fuck? Just sails right through a slushy. Yeah. Or pretty soon next, they're like, oh, man, they're bringing back United Flight 93. I don't know if you guys want to hop on that. It could be really fucking cool. Mark Wahlberg's on there though. He's like, don't worry folks. I got you.

Conceptually, this hits a lot of intriguing checkpoints. I think anyone who's watched the movie and been stoned enough is on board with what's happening here. I'm in on this one, yeah. I watched the movie not stoned and I'm kind of like, would it all things being equal if i like had just ridiculous wealth i would probably go on this for some reason but then would you stay in steerage because i like that he's also

like trying to make just even every class sort of like be you know historically accurate so third class that serves stew and mash and i'm like yeah that sounds all right yeah man yeah stew and mash sounds good unfortunately i've always identified in that movie most with billy zane's character so that's probably what i'd be doing just billy zane in it up fully hell yeah yelling at the people in steerage. And this is, I mean, this is so, it's so brazen and like idiotic. It's kind of a nice, you know, it's a nice use of a billionaire's time and resource.

It's a waste of energy. And of course, it could go to something a lot more constructive, but you just got to know that that's off the table from the outset. So it's like, instead of trying to get himself back into Australian parliament or pumping a bunch bunch of money which i'm sure he's doing in the background anyway into right you know their conservative party is it's like if you're going to just stand up here

and be like i got this insane vanity project i want to rebuild a boat the most famous boat that's saying yeah good on you bro yeah go for it yeah it's really yeah like i think i don't like i don't know enough about this i'm just kind of finding out about clive palmer i do think this is a level of imagination and fun that is beyond donald trump like donald trump would never he would never be be like yeah we're gonna like do everything the same. He'd be like, everything's going to be gold and the gold Titanic, and it will only serve Trump stakes. And you have to buy three NFTs. He'd get lost so quickly, whereas just the idea of sticking to all the details of this

is actually kind of fun. Yeah. Yeah. I also just like, too, his explanation. You've been kind of doing this project off and on. Like, what's the difference? I said, the plan is more real than ever because, quote, I've got more money now. Let's just say the pandemic was very, very good to me.

Spot on. Yeah. Yeah. He made money. I think he was a real estate agent. And then he retired at 29 was his end. So he got rich at the right time in the right place.

I think he's flipping houses in the 80s or something. Yeah. I just think it's a fun, cartoonish old style of being a billionaire or a millionaire is the more timely association

with the money. If that's all he's wanted to do this whole time, power to him. It's not. He's a bad Like, if that's all he's wanted to do this whole time, power to him. It's not. He's a bad guy, but he's doing something cool. Yeah, he's probably a massive piece of shit. Oh, he is.

He is. Undoubtedly, this guy is. Wasn't he, like, doing coal mining or something? I know he's, like, involved in mining, too. He's got... Yeah, he really got into mining. He... You know, like, it's ridiculous.

He's a real estate agent. He's a real estate agent. He's a real estate agent at the right time. He got rich by circumstance. And then that imbues people with the self-belief that they are intelligent operators. In every respect. Yeah, that they know how the world works. Because they were just in a specific moment in time and they got one thing right. And the flow effect was that they are suddenly ultra wealthy.

And they're like, you know, money does not correlate to intelligence at all. But try telling that to a billionaire. We'll see if he has if he goes through with his other plan of doing the Challenger 2 with. So his other idea that he's had in the past was in 2011 he bought a prestigious golf resort which was home to the australian pga and filled it with animatronic dinosaurs including a life-size t-rex between the ninth screen and the tenth screen that's great again like this is fucking awesome like i love that that the movies he's going for are ones... Titanic and Caddyshack 2.

It goes so... Yeah, yeah. Or even Jurassic Park, where he's like, that's a good idea. You know, the message in Jurassic Park is not, we should have dinosaur parks. Yeah. Or dinosaur golf courses. The message in Titanic isn't like, this boat was awesome. That's right.

titanic is it like this boat was awesome you just saw the first the first half of like every movie in the oh yeah he goes yeah right they get to jurassic park he's like i've seen enough enough baby they get on the boat he's like yeah boats boats boats yeah yeah yeah he's like no i have an idea we need fucking dinosaurs on the golf courses. That's where Hammond went wrong. Who knows more about golf courses and dinosaurs? Someone with $10 billion? Or someone who's watching the whole movie? Don't give me this. I like that he was called Palmersaurus.

It's not even like the name of a park. He just called it Palmersaurus. That's good, see? Because, again, Trump would be Trump Dinosaur. Right. He's trying know. Right. He's trying something. Right.

He also, the dinosaur, the life-size T-Rex he named Jeff, and then, yeah, Jeff, he claimed Jeff is just the first taste of Palmersaurus, an outdoor exhibit of 162-scale robotic dinosaurs that roar, blink, sluggishly move their limbs and slowly gnash their teeth can't be too much of a distraction on the golf course you know what i mean that's what you're going for still still there's still a sense of decorum out there when someone's trying to putt but the reason he's referred to as australia's trump beyond being a you know quote-unquote billionaire who's lost his grasp of reality he's also gotten into politics and he's a former mp yeah launched a campaign with the slogan make aust Australia great. Yeah. It was never great before. So they can't do that again.

Yeah. Yeah. There's an honesty there. Yeah. But I just also like that he's so like harebrained that he fully went in on the fucking hydroxychloroquine shit and bought imported tens of millions of doses of hydroxychloroquine to donate to the Australian government, but, quote, as enthusiasm for the drug waned. Wait, what happened? What's going on with this market?

I thought I understood markets. I'm a billionaire. Oh, the enthusiasm's waning. Or it was horse shit to begin with. Or rather, horse paste to begin with. Sorry. Thank you. Yeah, I said five million doses had to be destroyed because no one wanted to even claim them at the airport so i just love

that it's also like really fucking terrible swings and misses too it's not like this sort of like coke brothers type shit it's like nope palmer saurus that's jeff hydroxychloroquine millions of doses oh no one wants them whatever he's He has, like, while all this is happening, he has taken time out of his busy schedule being a fun sort of style harebrained billionaire to disrupt progress in Australia in a variety of ways. I think he pumped a lot of money. They had a

referendum on whether or not they should have an Indigenous voice in Parliament. The vote yes referendum or vote no, you know, to the whole country. It's a flawed process. He sunk a bunch of his money into the no campaign to say the Indigenous populace shouldn't have representation.

So he's, you know, it's not all... Did that win? Yeah, the country voted no. It was a very devastating moment for Australians. Oh my. And so, you know, when he's, it's important that his brain remains flooded with these sort of fun distractions

because when he's not working on his vanity projects, he's full xenophobia. Yeah, he's ruining it. Or not even xenophobia. That's racism. Yeah, yeah, you're the colonizer. At his core, he's a bad guy. But on the surface, on the right day,

he's probably quite a good chap. And I think that's sort of like the the thing that makes these kinds of characters like effective it's like they're like no they're actually advocating for some evil shit they're like no man dude he wants to build fucking he likes t-rexes and shit it's called jeff yeah yeah it's like the like george bush like you know bush too really gave us that taste of that where they're like, this guy's a fucking danger to everything. It's like, dude, he's just a goof, man. Don't worry about him. It's like

he's destroying the... Okay. Yeah. He's a bit of a laugh, though. Keeps pitching me on a public transport overhaul where all the buses blow up if they go under 55 miles per hour. He's trying to get a blimp to fly between australia and new zealand

called the palmerberg tube he's also so the thing that happens with billionaires is they get rich become convinced that they're right about everything and like they deserve to be rich because they're the smartest person who's ever lived. And then they're so rich at that point that nobody can tell them otherwise. And so, for instance, he did the hydroxychloroquine thing during the pandemic, also tried to sue the government over COVID-related travel restrictions, has bankrolled multiple lawsuits contesting COVID vaccine requirements. Also tried to sue the government over COVID-related travel restrictions. Has bankrolled multiple lawsuits contesting COVID vaccine requirements.

Incidentally, when he did catch COVID, he got double pneumonia as a result and had to go to the hospital and nearly died. And they were like, so you have any regret about not having the vaccine? He's like, no, of course. Of course I don't. Restrictions on unvaccinated no longer apply to me. Also, so I'm winning this one because I got it. So I'm no longer immunized.

With a lot more coughing and splattering. What's double pneumonia? Oh, man. Twice as intense? I can't even imagine. I just like when there's a medical condition but it's the alter like the the modifiers just double then let their five-year-old name the disease oh it's because both of your lungs are infected okay got it got it got it makes sense

yeah but double compound compound pneumonia yeah it's like yeah i got yeah i got double ear infection uh that that actually makes sense if you said double pneumonia no kickbacks yeah yeah yeah all right well guy montgomery what a pleasure having you as always on the daily zeitgeist where can people find you follow you all that good stuff at guy underscore mont on whichever ones you're using i actually i've i've i've filmed i had a good stand-up show last year an hour-long show and i filmed it there you go i paid people to film it professionals and i put it on youtube it's called my brain is blowing me crazy and uh i think it's i think it's really good you know i i put it out i think about a

month ago but check it out if you want it's on uh exclusive streaming platform youtube youtube damn yeah it's you look at the national and international internet amazing is there a work of media that you've been enjoying oh well i i sort of i mean i went for the more traditional route of uh sharing something that it was it's a tweet i still call them tweets oh yeah i as the dying platform you know um obviously there's no growth in there and all the good ones are leaving but dan lakata who's a stand-up comedian who when i was living in new york i thought he was one of the funniest comedians going. He did a tweet the other day that really made me laugh.

It was just a – when he did stand-up, he used to always talk about how he's still in school and he'd always complain about his teachers. It was this ridiculous sort of – He took a photo of a notepad he's written on with the caption, Debate Team Tryouts Today. And then the two bullet points are,

Karen's have the best pussy but you're not ready for that conversation. And then the second bullet point is crowd work. Crowd work at the debate team tryouts. It really makes me laugh. That's really funny. Miles,

where can people find you? Is there a work in media you've been enjoying? Yeah, you can find me at milesofgray wherever they got the at symbols, wherever they're serving those up. You can find Jack and I on our basketball podcast, Miles and Jack on Mad Boosties. And if you like 90 Day Fiance, catch me out on, catch me out, check me out.

Catch me out. Or catch me also on 420 Day Fiance. Well, let's see. A tweet I like. We've been talking about, look, behind the scenes and on Mad Boosties, we've been talking a lot about the Anthony Edwards dunk on John Collins that is one of the most just ridiculous displays of athleticism and just flights that I've ever seen.

And someone tweeted this picture from the game, and a woman in the crowd is obsessed with this Utah Jazz fan and CJ Toledano quote tweeted and said, she was normal before the ant dunk. And this woman's hairstyle. Is that real? Yeah, dude. It's like some MAGA wackadoo hairstyle I've never seen.

But I do like to believe that she walked in there with like a normal sort of cloth. And then the Anthony Edwards altered her. Fuck. Yeah. It looks like, like some shit, like where you're like,

like in the ghostbusters or something. Yeah. It's like actual roses hair from the welcome to the jungle video. But then like in the back, it just got all like i caught in a ceiling fan yeah exactly yeah or that what was that woman who died in like the plane crash and there was like that documentary on hbo about her who had the gigantic hair amelia earhart no gwen shamblin no gwen shamblin do you do you Do you recognize this woman?
