Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat. I'm sorry, who did you fight with? People might not know, we were having a conversation about Mortal Kombat 2, but who are you fighting with? I was playing Mortal Kombat Arcade last night, and I really like Johnny Cage, because I think he's the funniest.

He murders you and then throws his headshot at you. Yeah. Which is a legitimately hilarious movie. He's a Hollywood sociopath. I really like him. Plus, he's the most oiled up and greasiest dude. He's just a super funny guy to play with, I think. Have you seen those videos,

the behind the scenes of the mo-cap sessions for the first game? No, I need to check them out. Oh, yeah, they're on YouTube. For any MK heads out there, man, it's just worth seeing how they brought these actors in to do all this stuff. Now I'm just thinking, I wonder what that Johnny Cage actor was like

actually when they were doing all this. He was like, I need more body oil, man. I need a lot more. That's not going to show up on the mo gonna show up on the no one needs to show up just need it yeah yeah i hope he's also like a like a literature professor or something like he's like a great academic literature professor happens to be able to do the splits and punch or whatever right right oh yeah what a move he wants to talk about yates so that was was the move, right? He would split and punch and that was it? No, he's got a shadow kick. Dude, don't get me started.

He's got the shadow elbow. He throws these weird green balls. Like everybody else, they throw fire and stuff, which kind of makes sense, but he throws these green orbs. They never explain if he's part witch. I don't know why. I don't know why green balls. Right. It's a Hollywood thing. Probably Scientology. why. I don't know why green balls. Right.

It's a Hollywood thing. Probably Scientology. Oh, that's what it's an L. Ron Hubbard reference. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's what level is that of feet and removal?

He was apparently he was inspired by Jean-Claude Van Damme's character in Bloodsport. Yeah. You can feel it. You can feel it. Oh, yeah. That's where the splits and the punching. Yeah. That's right.

Because remember, he's on the he's doing the the splits and the punching. Yeah. That's right. Cause remember he's on the, he's doing the splits on those folding chairs. Yes. Yeah. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Very pivotal scene in my young adulthood. Yeah. That's, that's how you ended up where you are today. Yeah. Exactly. I'm current. You can't see me listeners,

but I'm currently doing the splits in between. Doing the splits on two folding chairs. That's just how you record. That's how you're most comfortable yeah i feel at home there yeah yeah all right we're gonna get to know you a little bit better in a moment uh first we're gonna tell the listeners what we're talking about today you've got a lot to get to rfk jr is both kind of changing his name and also got the endorsement of a political heavyweight that everyone was waiting for this to drop. Who is going to get the endorsement of this guy? So we'll talk about that. But we're going to talk about Hamas agreed to a ceasefire deal. Israel

rejected it after agreeing to seemingly the same one now things seem to be getting worse the mainstream media uh in the u.s does not seem to be i don't know covering the content of the story or like the implication of like i don't know it's just there's like yeah negotiations continue they're falling apart yeah wobbling yeah that's one way to say it, I guess. We're going to talk about Boeing has locked out their firefighters because they're just killing it on the terrible publicity front. Killing it on the whistleblower front. I can't wait until Boeing

starts refusing to use wings. That's right. We've been spoiling you for years. They're like, this is a bus, dude. Yeah, we're going to shoot it with a giant slingshot. You'll fucking pay us whatever we ask. Right, yeah.

Remember that scene in Speed when it went over that incomplete part of the bridge? It's kind of like what you're going to do. You get an engine for the first half, and that's it. And that's generous. Okay. Right. The Met Gala happened. We were all glued's it. And that's generous. Okay. Right. The Met Gala happened. We were all glued to, oh, I was, I just, the looks were filling me up.

No, I didn't, I didn't pay that much attention, but I do know that like of the pictures that I saw, like headlines around, it turns out like three of them were AI. Fuck, dude. There's real people that are taking actual photos. It turns out like three of them were AI. What the fuck, dude? There's real people that are taking actual photos. It's over. Yeah, it's over for us. It's OVO. All of that, plenty more.

But first, Mort, we do like to ask our guest, what is something from your search history? Let's see. There's a lot. It's interesting because I'm now looking at this and then talking about Mortal Kombat. I think I may be more 90s nostalgic than I wish I was, which is embarrassing. That's fine, man. We're all there.

There's like 90s skate shoes like iPath Cats. Oh, shit. I had those. Do you remember those? Yes. I had the brown ones. I want to. Dude.

I have black iPath Cats. They're re-releasing them. I will pay them whatever amount of money they want for those yeah because it was like a like a wallaby i could afford i remember yeah yeah it's a skate wallaby yeah yeah yeah i remember these yeah these are nice uh-huh they should make a comeback i feel like they're cool like they feel a little a little bit timeless to me yeah which yeah which is kind of rare in skate shoes because skate shoes a lot like they look too too puffy they feel kind of weird actually i still like the puffy shoes but these are these are coming back yeah man like those thick ass skate shoes like osiris style like muska

ass skate shoes are like fucking back and i'm like wow yeah dude they just re-released the muskas i got a pair of the white es's uh i'll show you guys after the i paid 130 for a pair of the white ESs. I'll show you guys after the... I paid $130 for a pair of the white Ronnie Kriegers. Wow. Okay. I don't know who that is, but... You don't need to, man. 90s hero. Just nod your head, bro.

Just nod your head. Uh-huh. Oh, damn. The white Ronnie Cs? Yeah, dude. These are for listeners who don't feel like Googling it. They kind of look like little... They would work at a Ren Fair a little bit.

Like kind of leather shoes that look like they could have been sewed together at home a little bit. But they're cool. But they like seem a little bit loosely assembled. They're wallabies you skated. Yeah. Okay. Oh, yeah. Oh, you're talking about the caps.

Yeah, for sure. Yeah, the caps. Yeah, they're skate wallabies. Yep right and they just had good marketing they were like kind of like they were like a like a newish hippie style brand but they had interesting skateboarders anyway i'm sorry i'm boring everyone you're a skate guy though we we established this the last time you're on i think your search history was also skate stuff yep yeah you've been hitting the park lately i don't know i've never talked to a skateboarder before any sick hitting any sick lines you guys are doing fine actually yeah yeah yeah say with a little more confidence and i'll fully believe you okay

you've been hitting the park man dude i did roll over the park the other day there is in inglewood near me i'm in culver city in inglewood there's a bmx pump track so that they made it for like uh whatever bicycle riders to just ride really fast i went there the other night and skated for about two hours and uh it's the most fun i've had in a decade time. Yeah. What's something you think is underrated? Underrated? Tater tots. Tots? Oh, okay. Yep. Did some tater tots last night at a party.

There was like a spread of food. And these tater tots were, I'm going to say room temperature and still delicious. Wow. That's not the case usually. Yeah, this might be the hottest, most controversial take of this episode, but I think tater tots are maybe better than French fries. It's an interesting question. I was just thinking about the temp question because fries really fall off a cliff, right?

Yep. Yep, totally. Tats can maintain, you know, like they almost like if they're crispy enough, they're almost like three dimensional potato chips. Yeah, exactly. Yes. If the structural integrity is strong enough, then they maintain their shape and even crispiness.

Yeah. Yeah. You know? Yeah. It just can't, you can't, can't be the soggy ones that stick to the surface that they're baked on. Yeah,

that's true. Like the under, some are like undercooked inside and then overcooked outside. You don't want those. That's a no yeah yeah it needs to yeah needs to have a crispiness to it yeah i can abide my first reaction to that isn't horror i mean because when you have a good tater tot that's that's a nice experience because a lot of times you get like those just dried the fuck out like super frozen ones that just don't taste good but then every now and then i'll have one that's perfection but i will say even the frozen tots i think are better than most frozen fries like i think low quality tots are actually better than low quality if you're doing

them fries yeah if you're doing them i mean not yeah i'm not doing them at home and making low quality i i fucking post those shits up yeah you got a fry later yeah you got a fry you submerge them fuckers yeah i get it that's sick sick he's got a fry later at his house yeah and then like high quality i don't know i mean it's it's definitely a conversation yeah if you go best fry versus best tot, where are you at? Yeah. But I'm just, I'm always shocked. I kind of forget about them. And then every time I have one, I'm like, these have tasted great since I was eight years old and they still taste great.

Right. Like, right. Would you go McDonald's fries over McDonald's tater tots? So McDonald's tater tots, they basic, they have hash browns over there. Oh, yeah. That's hash browns. Right. Right we're not supporting mcdonald's yeah we can't right but if we were i feel like those hash browns better than the fries they're more consistent definitely right yeah probably because it's it's the morning because it's the morning and it's the first thing i've tasted versus the or no no i'm just saying also too like during the day you don't

know what batch what part of the batch you're getting with fries. Fresher. They're going to be fresher. Yeah. You can ask for new fries. Say, I'll wait for a new batch of fries. How far away are we on that? They're like, oh, fuck.

Just go to the fucking... Go to parking spot one, dude. Please. Yeah. Got another asshole. Yeah. Another TikTok fucking hacker over here. This guy thinks this McDonald's

is a five-star fuck restaurant right now. What's something you think is overrated? All right, so I'm going to say Taylor Swift, but not even, not her music, because here's the thing. I like what you like. I'm at the stage in my life

where like, enjoy what you like. But the intensity with which people love Taylor Swift and also the intensity with which people hate people who love Taylor Swift, something's wrong. And I compare it to this. Like, have you ever beat somebody in a game of ping pong and they freak out and you're like, dude, this is not about the ping pong. That's how I feel about Taylor Swift. I feel like she has become a fulcrum for meaning that is missing in our culture.

I don't know if everybody needs to go fucking, we all need to journal together and like go to a rage room and maybe meditate or something. But like, yeah, you know what I'm saying? Everybody relax. I think she is what we have now like in the 1800s like this sort of spiritual like meaningful outpouring would have been around somebody who's like jesus is coming back in 37 days and everyone would have been like all right we're all gonna like follow this person to the top of this hill and wait there and like abandon our family. Like, it's just we need some like, you know, belief and church stuff has like gone down, gone away.

And I'm not arguing that everybody should go back to church. I'm just saying that helps me make sense of the increased intensity of feeling around some of it. Yeah, we need Star Wars and Taylor Swift. Yeah. Well, yeah, people, I think everyone's going to naturally find that outlet where they can give, like, their devotion to. Like, I have certain, like, sports or, like, music or things like that. Yeah. But that has replaced, like, I don't, I'm not as devout as, you know, obviously I'm not religious at all.

Right. But, yeah, people need those things. And sometimes, yeah, I don't, I'm not as devout as, you know, obviously I'm not religious at all. Right. But yeah, people need those things. And sometimes, yeah, it's an artist, but yet to your point, like the people who are just like,

like, I can't fucking stand fucking Swifties or other shit. I'm like, what the fuck, dude? People are mad at Swifties are also,

yeah, relaxed. Teetering. Look, man, you seem like you're teetering right here. Yeah,

yeah, yeah. Are you all right? Yeah. All right. Let's, let, yeah. Are you all right? Yeah. All right. Let's take a quick break and we'll come back and talk about some news. I'm Jess Casavetto, executive producer of the hit Netflix documentary series, Dancing for the Devil, the 7M TikTok cult.

I'm Keri Champion, and this is Season 4 of Naked Sports, where we live at the intersection of sports and culture. Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry, Kaitlyn Clark vs. 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 Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

The Black Effect Podcast Network is sponsored by Diet Coke. And we're back. We are. And, all right, we do like to check in every once in a while with RFK Jr.'s campaign. He's recently put together a 30-minute infomercial that got blocked by Meta because, according to the company, it had been classified as spam. So he said he's going to sue Meta. He's going to sue the whole internet uh and then he went ahead and just uh put the video on twitter instead the short film titled who is bobby kennedy a thing that nobody's ever called him before i don't think yeah i know who bobby kennedy is i know who the fuck bobby kennedy is john fitzgerald Kennedy's brother. Yeah. So this is supposed to be

you know, meet him again for the first time. So that name doesn't make you guys feel like wow, this guy's really young. Yeah, right? On some level. Yeah, what is he on? A college freshman baseball team? Bobby?

Bobby Kennedy, okay. He's a walk-on? it's definitely freighted with like historical meaning and you know the democratic party feels like they're fucking up like it's 1968 again and we might be headed for like the worst democratic national convention since 1968 but or whatever year it was that bobby kennedy was assassinated and there were all those riots but just the idea of like changing your name mid-presidential campaign yeah feels feels like a bad sign like yeah when you're hitting the the rebrand button for six months out yeah you should go more nickname like uh i'm going Bobo now or something. You know what I mean?

He should go lean harder into the nickname thing. Call me Robo. That would work, dude. Robo would work. Robo Kennedy? Robo Kennedy Jr.? I'd be like, yo. Sounds like a Simpsons creation. Robo Kennedy Jr.?

The photoshop of him in the robocop gear what i vote i'm ashamed to say i'd vote for that immediately yeah right i would lock my vote in this early sorry unfortunately i have already voted don't like his politics love the robot the robocop get up and just just reference he's just wearing all that whole armor he's like it protects me from vaccines and 5g and you're like this guy's fucking got safety on top of mind this guy gets what our biggest problems are one of the people to share the video on twitter was kevin spacey i don't know if you guys are familiar with him but he he endorsed Kennedy as a, quote, fighter for justice and a quote. And this was this is the one that hurts like that. Robert Kennedy Jr. has to be like, fuck.

And, quote, a loyal friend remarking that, quote, Bobby leaned in when the rest of the world turned its back on me. Just the endorsement that keeps getting worse and worse for justice let's not talk about whether there's justice for victims of sexual assault but hey no yeah yeah but he's a different kind man he hates that i got canceled yeah that's not a good yeah again that's not a good look where he's like yo bro when nobody was fucking with me. Bob O'Kane was. And I mean nobody. And nobody. Not even Donald Tronk himself. The moment he heard I assaulted a young man at a party, he came running. He actually, that's when he reached out to me.

It was like that Jesus footprints thing. Like, he just came through and was like, hey, man, can I roll with you for a little bit? We're doing great rebranding for him and the football. That's when Robert was carrying me. That's when R.F.J. Jr. was carrying me. Bobby is so, yeah, that's, yeah, God, that name change. I mean, every time he's just, every single thing that happens, he either does a thing where he's like, no, I didn't make that mistake. My campaign did.

Or like, oh, no, I wasn't lying someone else was yeah and now i i really wish there was some kind of insight to this name change because it's something's up sums up oh yeah i mean well they every like slickly produced thing that has come out of that campaign like the last one was just a sort of remix of a JFK campaign ad from his presidential campaign. They ask people who have access to like Q meters and stuff like that. And they're like, so the best thing you have going for you are the people who you're related to who are nothing like you. That's what you're going to want to lean into. The worst thing that we would ask you to try and downplay is that you were Kevin Spacey's rock.

It's wild that all the latest stuff isn't even about this meta thing. It's like you search RFK Jr. Kevin Spacey endorses RFK Jr. 2024 presidential does USA Today. The Hill. Kevin Spacey endorses RFK Jr. 2024 presidential does USA Today. The Hill. Kevin Spacey endorses RFK Jr. Rolling Stone. RFK Jr. lands coveted Kevin Spacey.

That's all right, Rolling Stone. You got me. You got my ass, Rolling Stone. Coveted Kevin Spacey. That has to be like if that was the biden campaign or the trump campaign i'm like that promote that person whoever yeah right reached out to kevin spacey and was like hey i'm also an rfk junior person uh we got we gotta tell people how great he's been to us right yeah that's that's wild yeah there's also the whole thing about like i know i'll sue them those

that's a very strange uh the internet yeah i was gonna sue all of them i'm gonna see the the one of three corporations we have left right exactly yeah i mean yeah you probably just sue one of them chances are they're the parent company of whoever you're trying to get after anyway yeah yeah totally that's the That's the fun thing about consolidation. Yep. You just have to sue one company at a certain point, and you get them all. All right. The war in Gaza took a horrible turn.

I mean, it was at first hopeful, you know. So at the beginning of last week, Secretary of State Blinken encouraged Hamas to accept a new ceasefire deal that was offered by the Israelis, described it as extraordinarily generous. Thousands of Palestinians would be released in exchange for 33 Israelis. And after a bit of negotiation, the Egyptians and Qataris put forward another deal, similar points with an end to the siege of gaza included the guardian like talked to people familiar with the deals and they're like they're basically the same the one that was offered that was like you need to accept and the one that they accepted yeah and yeah and yet there was on Monday, we heard news that Hamas had seemingly accepted or agreed to this framework on Monday.

And then shortly after that, the Israelis rejected the deal and saying it was inadequate and fell short of what they were going for and announced that it will basically be conducting operations in Rafah. As we were saying, that was like the one place where people were told they could be safe. And now they're like, well, now we're going to be doing, quote, operations. And then Netanyahu even said a few days ago that, quote, Israel will under no circumstances agree to end the war as part of an agreement to free our abductees. And like, so we've heard for months that the return of hostages was like paramount for this government. And a deal is offered and accepted by Hamas, but now it has been rejected. And if you look at the headlines right now, not much that would lead a reader to believe that Hamas had ever accepted a deal. In fact,

it seems more just like, oh man, it's kind of fucked up right now. It's like, I don't know, we'll see. We'll see if they can come to the negotiating table. It's a very chaotic thing. Some outlets have acknowledged that Hamas did agree to this framework. Others did not. It's a very chaotic thing. Some outlets have acknowledged that Hamas did agree to this framework. Others did not. It all depends on, you know, how how bad the journalism is. But the one thing is, like, it's not even clear how this deal was inadequate, because, Jack, like to your point, a lot of people were like, this is pretty much the same deal that was offered. So it's I think the point being here, and I think the thing that people need to keep in mind is that it just there there is no and it doesn't seem like there is any intention from the Israeli government to end the hostilities.

It's purely just like, we have to destroy Hamas, essentially, just go follow through with this genocide, and then we can kind of ask questions later. Yeah. But none of, none of these legacy outlets are doing that. They're just obfuscating. And, you know, it's, it's just a fucking, like things are getting absolutely worse and worse. And when you're talking about all the people that are concentrated in

Arafat, we're talking about this could, this is just going to be, again, be a terrible, terrible fucking outcome. There's going to be so many lives lost needlessly. And we still have newspapers acting as if it's like, well, hamas maybe you didn't agree it's like they did maybe you should

put that in your headline because it wasn't many outlets that actually engaged with the you know the real truth in terms of what was going on in their headline writing it would just be like if you read the body of it you'll see something there but still the thrust of the piece would just make it seem like nah you know just who knows what's gonna happen rather than saying like they're rejecting it to keep the violence going this is more of this outrageous like under the guise of objectivity we're no longer do actual journalism yeah right right yeah well because that yeah that that it's not real journal it's not serious journalism unless we're telling both sides of it when one side is. Yeah. Like actively committing an unending murderous land grab.

Yeah. Like the IDF killed those like this was a while ago, but they killed those aid workers on purpose. But they killed those aid workers on purpose. And that got reported on. But then they didn't really dig into what that means. They're killing people for trying to feed the people in Gaza on purpose. They kind of talked about it. But then they kind of backed away and moved over to trying to find college students who will say something stupid that they can, you know, make, make seem anti-Semitic.

Yeah. I don't know what's going on. It's real sad that like a lot of this seems to be falling onto the shoulders of the America's 18 year olds. Yes. Like who are infants and now like having to put their bodies in front of riot police on the campus, you know?

Yeah. Bravely. And it's wild too. Cause like even haretz right in israel their headline was hamas accepts gaza ceasefire deal semicolon israeli officials reject prospect of war ending yes that's that's a little bit more yeah that's a little more accurate but then you have you know like msnbc there's like nothing on their page like on their front page yeah that alludes to this it's like trump hush money trial like there's like nothing on their front page that alludes to this. It's like Trump

hush money trial. There's like a whole subsection on their front page. And Fox has absolutely nothing at all. The US mainstream media coverage of this is in a lot of ways kind of less accurate

and more conservative than what you get in israel at least from heretz like the the heretz article says according to a foreign diplomat source diplomatic source familiar with negotiations the outline hamas accepted monday night is at its core the same as the egyptian proposal which israel had already approved so it's like yeah but we already started this invasion yeah so and so yeah like it's all this hollow talk about like bringing the hostages home it's like well there's your deal and it's like well maybe for some people that's more important but clearly for netanyahu it's

completely different and yeah you know i think you know a lot of people obviously who are more educated on the topic than i talk about how like this needs to keep going for netanyahu to stay in power so it's like it's just uh we're burning the candle at both ends yeah and we have a media that is doing everything it can to protect who you know the the ruling class's interests which is just never-ending uh bloodshed in the region yeah but yeah this is this is where the state of things are so just fucking shameful all around and they're like they're they're dropping basically pamphlets on the parts of palestine where people were told to uh hide you know get out of here and there's nowhere for them to go it's like so profoundly insulting in addition to the, uh, yeah, the insanity of the war.

And yeah, I mean, I don't know if you saw that. There's a clip of like Mitt Romney talking to Anthony Blinken about like, just like the whole Tik TOK thing. And he was like, what's going on with the PR man? The Israelis really,

really messed up the PR for this. Like he was even like, they're usually pretty good at getting the world to like, look the other way. He's like, what's happening. And then Blinken's talking about, I was like, like yeah it's a different information landscape like you know there's a lot more images and things that just speak directly to the emotion of people so that's very difficult

to contend with and like they're talking about in this like very clinical detached way that is so fucking frightening that they're talking about it sort of like you know like oh like usually like like it's sports or something. Yeah. Usually they don't get pushed around the post season. It's like, but you know, but sometimes people just are deeply affected by images of just horrific violence.

Yeah. Mothers holding their dead children. Yeah. Like you're, they're actually seeing what's going on. Like since the beginning of war, it was easy to distance yourself. And then we had Vietnam where we saw some of war it was easy to distance yourself and then we had vietnam where we saw some photographs yeah and it was a horrific nightmare and now we're seeing the extended version of that now where it's like day to day you just get to see everything that's

actually happening because in the iraq war you saw a little bit more you know there were a little bit more there were like footage from like helicopters or drones and things like that where you're like holy what the fuck is going on and now in the age of social media i mean like you can information comes very quickly and there's no like the truth of the matter you just cannot hide no matter what you do and no matter how much you try and obfuscate and change the topic and try and misdirect people and where their intentions are it's just it's. And yeah, that's what really is frightening to me because watching the, like the powers that be in our country and abroad sort of like starting to panic about the fact that they can't get people to look away just makes me,

obviously we're seeing what's happening. It's like, we're seeing just like this sort of fascistic response of, you know, arresting students and journalists on campus and yeah it's uh you see it's you see you really feel the dissonance between the reality and the reality of like quote the rich man's war you know what i mean the people who actually suffer and the people kicking back in their offices benefiting from raytheon money you know what i mean and being like we and that's why we need to ban TikTok. Like that is Romney's point from, like after he says the thing that you just described about how like we're having trouble

like controlling the information on this one. He's like, well, that's the good news is the president's going to ban TikTok. And you know, that should take care of that is essentially, it's the wild, it's like having a bug in a meeting like for some reason he

because mitt romney is a robo human like he he is the original robo kennedy like a robot in a kennedy skin suit who's like my favorite meat is hot dog my second favorite meat is hamburger like he doesn't know not to be like well we're gonna ban tiktok and that should take care of it but it really like that's like he just explains their thinking on the tiktok fan is like we've had just about enough of these images getting out there yeah yeah it was wild i i actually maybe i haven't seen the actual article but someone had posted like an excerpt from the wall street journal that was saying, well, if students are so worried about divestment, maybe they should invest in companies like Northrop Grumman or Raytheon, and then they can become activist investors. And you're like, what the fuck?

Finally, someone is telling the truth over at the Wall Street Journal. Yeah. Activist investors. Yep. Bringing this shit down from the inside, my man. is telling the truth over at the wall street journal yeah activist investors yep bringing this shit down from the inside my man that's like their leftist person they're like all right we've got a columnist who's like kind of to the left let's see what they have to say yes yeah exactly yeah because it works so well with for fossil fuel companies yeah exactly all right let's uh let's take a quick break and we'll be diving even deeper into the unbelievable stories behind 7M Films and L.A.-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. Forgive Me For I Have Followed will be more than an exploration.

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 iheart radio app apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast the black effect podcast network is sponsored by diet coke and we're back and at this point boeing and terrible publicity are like they go together like peanut butter and chocolate i'm gonna say like sardine and pretzel the two famous combinations yeah if sardine and pretzel or peanut butter and chocolate products were constantly falling apart 30 000 feet in the air but bo Boeing has now locked out 125 of their unionized

firefighters in Washington state. The union claims Boeing has saved billions in insurance costs by employing its own onsite firefighters, but they're still paying these firefighters a pittance. Their proposed pay increase for these workers would mean that crews would be quote earning 20 to 30 percent less than firefighters in the cities where boeing plants are located so you're taking less money to be a firefighter taking less money but you get the the joy of working for boeing basically an arms manufacturer yeah who also has a side hustle where they make the the planes that you fly around in but yeah it'd be like if richie rich paid the employees of his private mcdonald's 30 less than the employees not working in a child's mansion any any other richie rich fans

out there no uh i mean the macaulay culkin version? Yeah. Yeah. Doesn't Barbara Streisand have McDonald's in her basement? I know she had them all, but I don't know what the food court situation was. I think it is a McDonald's. Yeah. I wonder what their pay was like compared to... She's probably got clones or something working in there. Some of those clone dogs and shit. Trained clones.

Yeah. But yeah, Boeing wants firefighters to extend the time it takes for firefighters to hit the top pay scale to 19 years. Up from 14, the union is asking for five. And they're like, how about we take your five and add it to the already insulting,

that is such a hopeless situation we've put you in. They're probably like, oh, we misunderstood. I thought, oh, okay, you didn't want the five. You don't want five more. Okay. It's like they're trying to incentivize people to keep their planes falling out of the sky. You know what I mean? It's like, why don't you, like, treating their employees so terribly keep their planes falling out of the sky. You know what I mean?

Treating their employees so terribly is just incentivizing them to do a shitty job on every aspect of plane production. Especially the people that, you know, the firefighters, presumably at the facility, like, would that one just get a little bit singed? Yeah, yeah, put it in. Put it in.

It's good. It's good. It's flight-worthy. AI is going to replace firefighters anyways, guys. so i don't know what we're even talking about you know people you know people are talking like that right now oh yeah the people in boeing can you imagine like that yeah you can get a fucking need pilot are you kidding me have you seen this gpt thing what the fuck do you think autopilot is, motherfucker? Dude, we're so fucking close. We're going to get those inflatable guys from the movie Airplane. Yeah, right.

Yeah, exactly. You like gladiator movies? The sex golf. Yeah. Yeah, but so they're locking out trained firefighters, which might seem like a pretty huge safety risk. But not to worry, because they're bringing in a fleet full of highly qualified scabs oh boy they're also currently in talks with the international association of machinists and aerospace workers district 751 and puget sound who want not just better wages but a greater say in the company and high standards of safety for Boeing manufacturing.

Yeah, good luck. Standards of safety. Come on. Yeah. If they follow the same negotiating tactic, they'll start sprinkling rusty nails around the super dangerous shit everywhere. Yeah. Just loose bags of tetanus somehow. Will we make it more, less safe? Yeah. How'd you get

tetanus in a bag? Loaded guns with no safety mechanism or whatever. Just lying around the plane. Yeah. Inside like a

paint can shaker. Yeah. Yeah. Just put those in there. You should be right. You'll be right. Just drop them next

to you and you have to remember not to grab them because they're right. Switch blades and machetes just yeah and around think fast i got his ass god what are scab firefighters even like like i you know like what who are these guys they're like out of work firefighters or something like isn't you know like i'm even like trying to wrap my head around like i mean i get that there are private firefighting brigades because that's like where like half of the like the like people in malibu use those kinds of fucking people or in

calabasas right oh so i just answered my own question it's like those private ties firefighters please thank you i just i i have to hope they're not as hot as regular firefighters. Yeah. Much shittier firefighters. A little heavier, not nearly as sexy. Teeth not as white, you know? Yeah. Budget firefighters. Perfect handlebar mustaches.

Perfect. They don't have Dalmatians. They have kind of like sick looking like wiry mutts. Yeah, right. Exactly. Yeah. Like Christine Ohm's puppy. Yeah. Speaking of which. speaking of which christine speaking of which how's she doing oh man well puppy side lady is now getting destroyed by her own very sad no just briefly checking back in because this is somehow the

ghost written book that keeps on giving uh But she had pretty easy interviews with most conservative outlets early on in like the dog killing controversy. But recently that has not been the case. In the last day, she's had some pretty hard interviews like on Fox Business. She went to speak with Stuart Varney and he pretty much was unrelenting in trying to get her to admit that maybe it was a bit of a fuck up to include that weird shit in her book about just being like yeah i fucking kill dogs bro this is what the fuck i do because i'm tough if they fuck with me i will put them down i don't

give a fuck if they're 14 months old you're talking about puppy right no i'm talking about a dog she she gets in an argument with him where she's like you're talking about a puppy she's like well no it's a dog it's an adult gets in an argument with him where she's like, you're talking about a puppy. She's like, well, no, it's a dog. It's an adult working dog. It's like 14 months. She's like, yeah. Yeah, that's right. And he's like, oh, fuck.

When my kids went to work, so what? Yeah, but it was like this interview was part like, let me help you out of this shitstorm. Here's an opportunity for you to right this ship. Maybe do a mea culpa. In part, let me just make this freak squirm um so after going back and forth on the topic for a couple minutes they switched topics to talk about like plumbers and stuff and electricians in south dakota and then he came right back asking if she still thought she had a fucking shot at being vp and this is where like it got a little bit contentious

you're getting the unvarnished truth. Here we go. Do you still think that you are in line to be Trump's vice president? It's up to Donald Trump. He's the only person who will decide this. He's the only person who will decide. And I spoke. Yes, I do speak to him.

May I ask what he said to you about being vice president? I never tell anybody my personal conversations. Did the dog story come up in your conversation? I talk to President Trump all the time. About the dog? About a lot of things. And right now, I tell you what, he is being persecuted in a political hunt, witch hunt, in this court case. So I'm proud of him about how tough he is and how well he is doing.

Did you bring up the dog? Yes. Enough, Stuart. This interview is ridiculous, what you are doing right now. So you need to stop. It is. Okay. It is. We'll stop. Let's talk about some real topics that Americans care now. So you need to stop. It is. Okay. It is.

We'll stop. Let's talk about some real topics that Americans care about. I'm afraid we're out of time. Oh, well, of course we are. But we do thank you for being with us. I know I pressed hard. Just, but the dog, though? I like how she's so slippery with this shit that it's not like you've spoken to Donald Trump.

She goes, I speak to Donald Trump. So, no. You know what I mean? Like doing that kind of, you know, fucking with tense there just to be like, I'm going to dodge the question. So, yeah, you hear that? Just, Stuart, enough. You're fucking flaming me on Fox. This isn't supposed to happen.

You're supposed to act like that was cool shit I did. was cool shit i did and then she got fucking bodied the same day on newsmax when some guy rob finnerty apparently this guy's name started off saying i think you were probably like he starts off this appearance by saying i think in the beginning you were like at the probably at the top of the list for vp options but after this shit book i don't think you're even in the convo my lady and then he this what this time he's pressing her about that fake ass meeting with kim jong-un which again never fucking happened and she won't quite admit that it never happened and that's where it gets a little again that's where this one gets our publisher has admitted it didn't happen because they've like gone yeah we had to go back

to that of course they don't blame her like we had to talk to the uh ghostwriter and the editor and yeah change change a couple things wow so the governor had doesn't even vet the shit that goes in the book because that might be a problem too it was a really bad ghostwriter well and then he starts off by saying he's like you know i think the big problem right now with politicians is they lie. And she's like, yeah, yeah. He's like, so what about Kim Jong-un? And this is again, where this is a little bit further into the this alleged meeting. I'm asking if the meeting actually happened. I don't think it did. And I think if it did, you'd be able to confirm for me that yes, it did. And here's when it happened. It happened, say, at such and such a date or a month or you don't have to be specific. I'm not going to talk about my conversations. You're going to continue to have to answer this question. I don't think so. Because the average American citizen is more worried about the border.

They're more worried about what we see in a white house then you're lying it's a weird pivot and it's always like you know they're always turning it around on brown people that's right always like actually you know what they care they actually hate mexicans i think she should double down on this thing. I think she should come prepared with a photograph of her riding piggyback on Kim Jong-un. You know what I mean? They're both acknowledging a family

who refused to honor his name or something. Governor, can I see your hands for a moment? It looks like you have five fingers. Now, in this photo, you have 17 fingers on your right hand. Is this AI? She goes on. She's wearing one of the dresses from the Met Gala. Misled the American people over 150 times and nobody pushes him on what he says, that he was imprisoned with Nelson Mandela, that he drove an 18-wheeler, that his uncle was...

Biden said he was in prison with Nelson Mandela? Is that a real thing? Honestly, probably. I mean, at this point, fucking probably. Yeah, just like fucking jumble up there. Yeah. And I would like to see that the American people know and recognize the difference, that they want leaders who actually will go forward and give them a way that they can elect people who want to represent them and fight for them. Governor, that's a very good point. And I'm not deliberately trying to be adversarial. I just Donald Trump winning in November is very important. Yes, it is. I think that whoever he chooses to be his running mate. And again, I think at one point you were at the top of that list.

But you're going to get questions a lot more difficult than that. The thing that's very interesting to me is the only person who will decide. Yes, Donald Trump. He said that in the last interview. But anyway, yeah, just you hate to see it. You hate to see it. It's just funny when you're so clear, like Michael Jordan was at my birthday party. And you're like, oh, really?

Yeah. I don't think he was, though, right? I don't think he was. Yeah. That seems really unlikely. I don't know if the other kids in schools are going to like that. Well, oh, really? Yeah. I don't think he was, though, right? I don't think he was. Yeah. That seems really unlikely. I don't know if the other kids in schools are going to like that. Well, you know what? They don't care because they're worried about the fact that the tater tots are so bad in the cafeteria.

Right. Okay? Thank you. That won't matter to them. Next question, Rob. Please. Yeah. I don't know where she is.

God. I mean, again, I don't think I've ever seen her in motion before. She really seems like an evil character being played by Christina Applegate. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. She seems like the substitute teacher who like slept with one of the

students to ruin their lives just to ruin the kids. All right. Finally, the Met we can't we can't go much further guys of everything that's happening everything that's happening we would be remiss to not we would be so super remiss not to mention the met gala where most of the pictures that I saw were AI, which is so insulting to the stylists. People were like, nah, just like this fucking thing that somebody made up by being like, turn Katy Perry into a character from a Lord of the Rings slash fic thing. Yeah. Like got more clicks than anyone. It's like a bronze bustier with a...

Bronze bustier with a key. Secret garden key, yeah. Secret garden key down the middle. Garden of Time. I don't know if you remember that being the thing. And then Tattoo, Tutu, like made of flowers. Lady Gaga became a layer cake that defied physics slash looked like the guggenheim in new york i was gonna say yeah it looked like the guggenheim

is bleeding flowers yeah from its seams and that's lady gay gaga lady gaga and then uh rihanna of course looking like a chair that the pope would sit in slash you know that thing when people do embroidery like you have to put it in that like circular wooden yes yeah yeah that's what stretch frame for embroidery exactly yeah wearing that and has 17 fingers on her right hand but these are these are photo like of the photos that i saw from the met gala these were the ones that stuck in my head i think and you know i probably glanced past like a dozen on social media you know as i was trying to follow the results of the minnesota timberwolves just beating the shit out of the defending champs. How have we gone this long without mentioning it? Don't worry.

I don't want to talk about that. Sorry. It's the craziest game I've seen. We have a whole other show where we can talk about that. Yeah, I guess we'll talk about that on our NBA podcast. But yeah, these were the ones that popped up that I remembered. So I don't know. Now I'm scared of AI again, guys.

Sure. No, I love how unbelievable those are. I'm expecting one of like j-lo's face in front of the thomas the tank engine you know i mean j-lo stuns thomas tank engine like one of the kids from euphoria but they're like their faces all it's on the moon or something just like completely unbelievable shit yeah holy shit yeah these are whatever man this is where we're at this is a met gala ai i guess like i said november this summer is gonna get real fucking weird and i'm sure the gloves come off for

political more political misinformation and disinformation oh my god can you imagine when they have trump in this copper bustier with the key running down the middle? It's going to fuck up the Internet. And everyone over 45 believes it's true automatically. Like there's such a generational divide. They just can't. I mean, I have difficulty telling with a lot of them, but then there are people who just have no idea. Yeah.

On the Internet, it has to be true. Yeah. From now on, it's just like you have to assume nothing is true. Yeah. Yeah. You just have no idea yeah on the internet it has to be true yeah from now on it's just like you have to assume nothing is true but yeah yeah you just have to look it's always like look at the hands look at the background there's a certain things that have like give that you know tell on them a bit like there's some of the photographers one guy has a head so long he looks like what are the what are the aliens the technical term for the aliens and alien xenomorph xenomorph this dude has a xenomorph dome yeah uh but somehow he's looking at like a

i don't know like an ancient camera whatever hey man rihanna looks great rihanna you look great and also you look like this photo was from when you were like 24 yeah yeah so that's the other thing that i think the way they got my old ass is like they focused on celebrities that i'm familiar with and like the time that they were at their peak of fame and just like put them in pictures it with like met this year's met gala theme i was like oh there we go i'm still i my interests are still relevant. Like, meanwhile, like, nobody. Yeah. Rihanna looks great.

It's Paula Abdul in a beautiful dress. Paula Abdul looks great. Now we're speaking my language. That was my crush when I was in elementary school. I can't believe what Kathy Ireland came to in the Met Gala. Unbelievable. Oh, my God. Her and Nicky Crawford looks great. I can't believe what Kathy Ireland came to in the Met Gala. Unbelievable outfit. Cindy Crawford looks great. I mean, it was Garden of Time, you know?

Time is a flat garden. And so it wouldn't have surprised me if a young Paul Abdul showed up. Mort, what a pleasure having you on the podcast. Thanks for having me, guys. Always like to be here. Where can people find you, follow you, all that good stuff?

Miles, what song do you think people might enjoy? I mean, that Macklemore song is worth a listen because I would say some of our other artists are woefully late to the conversation about what is happening in Gaza. As much as I'm not...
