This is a podcast where we take a deep dive into America's shared consciousness and say officially, off the top, fuck coke industries and fuck Fox News. It's Tuesday, September 3rd, 2019. My name is Jack O'Brien, a.k.a. With the birds, Jack shares this iron brew, yeah.

With the birds, Jack shares diabetic juice, yeah. That is courtesy of Trait Gang at JustTDZ, a.k.a. And I'm thrilled to be joined by my special guest co-host, Mr. Edgar Mon Plaisir. Oingo fucking boingo. Nice. And we're out. What's good, Sprite gang? What's good, low energy mob family?

Sprite gang? What's good, low-energy mob family? Sprite Gang, love it. I love how unnecessary and yet necessary the Nickelback backing track was to that. Boingo, fucking boingo. Welcome, welcome, man. I got an announcement, Jack. What's that? I'm retiring from podcasts after this episode today. Oh, shit, after this episode? This is my last podcast I will ever do. What's that? I'm retiring from podcasts after this episode today. After this episode?

This is my last podcast I will ever do. That's not true. It is. Okay, let's pretend. Why is it? Because the government's trying to find me, man. Oh, really? Yeah.

I did not sign up for selected service when I got my FAFSA A in college. Okay. They're going to find me and make me join. They're going to send you to Iran. Yeah. And I do gonna send you to Iran yeah and I do wanna go to Iran it is number one place I wanna visit

in the world I wanna go to Tehran and see old good luck bitch well but now I'm gonna go now I'm gonna go though let's talk about

but now I'm gonna go though you can't stop because now I have a reason to go what do you wanna see there I wanna go to Tehran to see I just wanna see it oh I thought you

there was like a specific thing. Nah. Isn't it like one of the first cities in the world ever? Not really. I mean, that's more like Syria, but it's pretty cool. Dang. Well, I ain't trying to go to Syria. Who is that?

Edgar, who's talking? Why you put me on the spot like that? We are thrilled to be joined in our third seat by the hilarious comedian, Sarah June. Hello. What's up? Not much. Happy to be here. All right.

I wish I had a song to intro me in. I know. Like Edgar. A Nickelback song in particular. And like you, you could have told me that I was gonna be the only one. You've been on the show before, haven't you? Yeah, but you don't ever sing like that. I know.

You never sang like that before, Jack. Yeah, that's true. You never told me you could sing like that. That's right. You know, I catch people off guard sometimes. You keep those pipes hidden. But I still want to go to Iran, though. Can you help me with that?

We could get married and then you could go. For real? Yeah, I mean, we can't go hang out together unless we're married. This is the most convoluted proposal I've ever heard. It's just a rom-com that I'm writing starring me and Edgar. It's not that complicated, Jack. So one sentence pitch. We get married so you can visit Tehran.

I lie to you and tell you it's one of the world's oldest cities. For no clear reason. We go, we get harassed, we come back, we get divorced, we realize we love each other. I mean, it just writes itself. I see it. I think, yeah, I think you just sold it in the room.

Thanks. We're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going to tell our listeners a couple of things we're talking about today. We're talking about bootleg vapes, hacking vapes, all sorts of vaping that kids are doing that's hurting them. We're going to talk about Joseph Biden being bad at the truth. We're going to talk about Trump's assistant resigning. We're going to talk about all sorts of shit. We're going to do a quick rendition of what we're fucking with.

We're going to look at this new Dior campaign with Johnny Depp, all of that and plenty more. But first, we'd like to ask our guest, Sarge, what is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are? My search history recently included – I just had to know where Mark Zuckerberg's house was. I'm from Palo Alto, California. Okay. I know vaguely where his house is, but I was like, maybe I can find the address on the internet. Yeah. I was trying to find it for a show.

I'm not sending him things. It turns out not only did Mark Zuckerberg buy a very large house in Palo Alto, California, but he also bought the four houses around it and then tried to raise them so that he could build his estate. And he's done, he's also,

you might have heard he's also done this in Hawaii, which I had known. He bought a former sugar plantation in Hawaii. Chill. And then like three packages of land. He just,

everywhere that he buys houses, like he's got a bunch, you know, he's a billionaire. He has like 10 houses. But not only does he have 10 houses, everywhere he has houses, he's buying up the land all around it and trying to like build shit there. Right. That's some Jeffrey Epstein shit to be like, I want an entire, like I don't want anybody to be able to hear screams.

Not that anyone's going to be screaming. This is what I see as climate prepping. Mark Zuckerberg is fucking climate prepping. He's like, I'm going to go anywhere and I'm going to have a compound for me and my whole family and all my servants. Yeah. I mean, there was a really good New York article

a couple years ago about how like tech billionaires and tech bros are some of the biggest climate preppers. Yes. Like they're all- But they're prepping not by pushing for regulation or trying to like get rid of fossil fuels, but by just buying land in Washington and Canada. Yes, exactly. Because that's where it's going to be really nice.

New Zealand too, apparently. So they're really, they know it's happening and they're preparing for it, but they also want you to know that they hate you. Right. I think that's nice though. That they're buying the land? I think that's very kind of them, you know what I'm saying? Because they could just, like, go to space, but it's like, nah,

we're going to stay on Earth. We're going to still fuck with you guys. You know what? Maybe Mark Zuckerberg will let me camp on his land for, like, a billion dollars a year. I think, and I think, you know what? Looking at your outfit today, you can afford it. And I think that... I can. Yeah. It's going to be good. I can't wait to be his little camper.

I will say, and this is a podcast, but you are always one of our best dressed. Yes. Thank you so much. You got style. She does. I got this. This shirt is from Forever 21. You may have heard of it. Yay.

Bankrupt. Big fan. Yeah. They're bankrupt. Y'all heard? They're bankrupt? They're going. They're about to declare bankruptcy.

How? It doesn't mean they're going out of business. Everything is made from slave labor. Right. I know. That's what I said. So how do you go bankrupt made from slave labor. Right. I know. That's what I said. So how do you go bankrupt? These people are like Uber.

I know. Yeah, the slaves wanted 10 cents more. The books couldn't handle it. What is something you think is overrated? Overrated. I think having the, so, you know, it was just Labor Day yesterday. It was. And I think-

What a pro. The September Labor Day is is fucked labor day is may 1st that's the international labor day okay international one it is the international workers day why do americans do that well because organized labor in this country was uh brutally suppressed and uh employers were like let's make another labor day that's not one in international solidarity with the entire rest of the world so they made it september uh first monday in september i've just met you and i've learned so much i am full of information especially about labor stuff you're you're very informed on on labor situations yeah we're around you fuck with unions i do fuck with unions i don't think that

unions are inherently leftist but i fuck with. I would love to be in a union. Who should I vote for in the guild? Oh, let's talk about this off the air. I'm trying to get a job. These people are vindictive. So when did unions officially go out of fashion? Was it just when Reagan crushed the- Was it when Reagan crushed them?

Yeah. Was that it? fashion was it just when reagan crushed the was it when reagan crushed them yeah yeah well basically like you know i'm not i am not an expert on the history of american labor but i do know that there was like a huge resurgence in the early 1900s is also when there was a lot of like violent anarchist activity in places like chicago right so like with industrialization there was like a very strong labor movement people fucking struck and fought and died for an eight-hour workday yeah you know which we now take for granted you know like there didn't used to be an eight-hour workday they didn't used to be weekends so like people really fought for all

this stuff and kind of early 1900s and then basically from the 50s onward you know the the government was more like breaking down unions and um antitrust laws were either repealed or just not renewed relaxed so that monopolies could grow but like in the early era of like industrialization when there were like trains and stuff there were all these when trains were getting big you know there were all these monopolies and then the government was like well we have to break these up and that helped organize labor but then um you know eventually they were like no this is pretty cool is it going to continue to be a push-pull? Like, do you think?

I think so. Because I was reading, this dude just wrote an article. He created the show Good Trouble. But he wrote a real, I was like, let me see what this dude is talking about. But he wrote a really good article. Good Trouble. And I was like, okay, let me see what he has to say about unions. And then I read it and I was like, oh, this is actually really profound.

And, like, he was kind of talking about how it feels like now a lot of people especially with the trump administration the bush administration are working really hard to relax and like you said repeal some of that shit and now is the time where we can either like not let that happen or it's going to go too far uh the airline strike that's going on now is like a big example of that like unite here is a union of airline workers from many different airlines and they're right now trying to fight for like like uh what is it united i think is paying people like 9 25 an hour and they're making billions and billions of profits so stuff like that is kind of like it's coming down to the line where people are like well we're

getting fucked so bad we don't have any choice but to do this shit anymore because you just can't live you know these are people working two jobs and still not making enough to live. That's insane. It's fucked. Do we think it was part of a conscious strategic decision to make Labor Day kind of a shitty holiday where it's the end of summer?

It makes you depressed a little bit. Instead of making it the beginning of the summer it's like hey May 1st it's Beltane you know

it's the horniest day of the year it's like a magic day wait what's Beltane Beltane is like the is like a pagan thing oh nice

it's like a pagan celebration the first it's not the first day of spring it's halfway between the spring solstice and the

sorry the spring equinox and the summer solstice. Right. It's the day that I'm always horniest. Yeah. It's a big, big horn. Watch out for me on May 1st, people. I've been keeping a log of my horniness levels.

Yeah. Woo. Woo. Off the charts today. What is something you think is underrated? I think the new Looney Tunes is underrated. The new Looney Tunes is about to come out and it's really good from what I've seen. Is it a film? No, they're making new Looney Tunes is underrated. The new Looney Tunes is about to come out, and it's really good from what I've seen. Is it a film?

No, they're making new Looney Tunes shorts. Oh, okay. And they're not fucking it up. Huh. This is a reboot. They're not fucking up. They're doing great. I believe.

They have some really good writers and cartoonists. Warner Brothers can make no mistake, and I think HBO Max will be a hit. I have said that for no other reason than the fact that I believe that to be true. Get it on the record. That's right. And so it's got all the old standbys. Yeah, it's not fully out yet, but I've seen a couple of the preview ones

and they've done a redesign of the characters, but the redesigns don't suck. I mean, I'm just like, I'm thrown. It looks new, but it's good. It maintains the pace and shit. There's a new Elmer Fudd. There's a new Bugs Bunny. I like it.

Does Bugs Bunny have a six pack and is he jacked? You'll have to watch it. Does he hit a vape? That's my most important question. Yeah. Bugs Bunny vaping instead of a carrot. And then it blows his head off. Yeah.

But he's just covered in soot. Have you seen that double barrel vape? No, I haven't. Is that a real thing? Yeah, it's like, it looks like it's got those, you know, the holes for your fingers, or it kind of looks like brass knuckles, but then just instead of brass knuckles, it's two vapes next to each other, and they connect into one

port, so you could vape two cartridges at once. That's great. Yeah, it's really good. What is a myth? What's something people think is true you know too far? People think Jeffrey Epstein killed himself, and I just want to say that's definitely not true. Hey, no, it's been officially declared. Time to move on, throw the case out. What's the latest on that?

What's your thinking? What stands out to you as being particularly suspicious? Like every billionaire in the world wanted him dead. That's the main one. It's like, there are just too many people with too many motives. Right. If he did kill himself,

then it was like clearly part of an organized thing where, you know, he was allowed to kill himself. I don't think that's out of the question. I think he might've like done it. Like he sent in a request. Well, somebody sent in a request and he was like,

yeah, yeah, yeah. Cool. But I don't think so. Yeah. I don't think so yeah i don't think so like on post that guy wanted to inseminate the world too badly to ever kill himself that's my

thought yeah i mean he was he was focused on like a narcissistic form of immortality like that was what as opposed to the other forms of immortality which are very noble spiritual you can have low self-esteem immortality being like I guess I'll stay around. Yeah, like a depressed vampire. I'm 500, it's whatever. Yeah, I find it difficult to believe, too. I just, you know, I've been going to In-N-Out too much. I've been thinking about that picture, and it just makes me want to go to In-N-Out.

And it's not a coincidence, you know? So that is his friend and fellow sex slave kidnapper. Kidnapper of young women, yeah. And she put out this picture that was her at In-N-Out. Have you not talked about this on the podcast? We have, but- This is all I've been thinking about for like three weeks. But do we, I don't think we were clear on

what the motives were behind the picture, behind them Photoshopping that picture. Is it just that she wanted to throw people off the scent? My thought is, and there are a lot of different theories about this, but it seems like the most likely one is it was an old picture of her at an In-N-Out where she was clearly with somebody else, her lawyer, Leah Safian. Because the dog that she's with is her lawyer's dog. And the dog has his own Instagram. So it's like not hard to identify the dog and whose dog it is.

Right. There's like a second tray of food in the picture that was photoshopped out. And in the other pictures on the New York Post server, you can see like some really bad Photoshop where stuff was photoshopped out that you're like, this sucks. They didn't publish those pictures, but they're on the server and they're leaked. You can look at them. Oh, wow. Yeah.

Wait, so was the New York Post involved with? I mean, I don't know. Or they just got bad versions and were like, we can't print this. We can't print this. I think they got those pictures and they were like, this is the one that looks the most decent. We'll print it. Because later they could go back and be like well it turns out this picture was old but

they've already printed and they've already like got the views but the other thing is jelaine maxwell's dad also uh like was like big buddies with rupert murdoch and right when they first put the story out they had this whole thing about how like you know some guy found her at this in and out and approached her and took the picture and asked her what the book was that she was reading because in the pictures you can't see the title and she was like I'm reading this book about dead CIA members and he was like okay and then

told the New York Post this and they were like we believe you and then later people kind of pointed out that that was like a weird thing and they took that out of the story they were like oh just fucking, just kidding. Right. Hmm.

I think the most suspicious thing is that she was at In-N-Out. Well, she was at In-N-Out by herself reading a book. Who does that? Yeah. The food there is trash. Hey, whoa,

hold on. I've been going there for a lot of milkshakes, thinking about this picture, thinking about what it means. But you're not eating the food. You're not eating burgers. I'm not, no,

I'm not eating burgers. I like In, no, I'm not eating the burgers. I like In-N-Out. I like In-N-Out. See, if she was at a Shake Shack, I'd be riding with it. I'd be like, no,

that's real. I did go to Shake Shack also because of the picture. Cause I was like, I want to go to In-N-Out. And I was like, you know what? I need frozen custard. A better version.

Yeah. Yeah. And maybe that's as close as she gets to eating fast food as being like Photoshopped into having a burger in her hands. I mean, who knows? So I do think that it was to throw them off and to make law enforcement look for her in L.A. when she was leaving the country via another route. There were also the stories that she was holed up in her boyfriend's house and she hadn't been there for like months or something.

So she's probably somewhere else now. Oh, they haven't found her still? No. But are they actively looking? Is it just the media looking or the law enforcement? No, law enforcement is looking for her, I believe. I don't think they have a warrant out for her arrest, but nobody knows where she is.

Yeah. I'll tell them. I'll tell them where she at. But they got to let go of this FAFSA stuff. Right, right. All right, let's talk about the vaping scare that's happening. I ain't scared. I ain't scared of no vape.

ABC News. So I've randomly had to switch cars with my wife this week. And that's what you call a wife swap. That's what your car calls a wife swap. Right. That's as close as I get to a wife swap. And the ABC, like there's this like ABC News streaming thing that I just keep on to kind of hear what regular mainstream news is about. And all they're talking about this week is like, vapes are making people sick.

Vapes are poisoning people. And it didn't- We're talking about nicotine vapes. Right. Well, no, they're actually talking about THC, vapes that include THC. And it didn't make sense because it was like this sudden rash of people

like having to be hospitalized and one person died in Illinois from a lung infection of some sort. Whoa. And it seemed like the sort of media panic that you see when there's a new technology and people are like, the internet is poisoning your children.

Like when weed was legalized in a couple places and Maureen Dowd was like, I had an edible and I got upset. And I died almost. Yeah. And am I having a heart attack I can hear my heart beating that's my favorite Dowd call because it's just about her fucking curled

up on a bed being too high but apparently so there's a health warning that they released that specifically says people who use vape should not buy people who use vape should not buy people who use vape should not buy products off the street modify e-cigarette products or add any substances that are not intended by the manufacturer the cdc and fbi said but that i i didn't know that was even a thing

that people were doing people are hacking and modding the vapes. Yeah. So what is the- The kids today, they can't help but hack and mod, Jack. That's just how they live. That is how they live. They hack, they mod, they chop, they screw. So people are dealing vapes on the street? Dealing like vape pens? Absolutely. Totally.

I guess vape pens, yeah, obviously. But you can't sell them loose, though. You got to sell them in the pack. Right. Yeah. pens yeah absolutely but you can't sell them loose though you got to sell them in the pack right yeah there's just a lot of like really you know low quality vape cartridges and stuff and weird flavors and things that are cheap and you know it's a bunch of burning chemicals we're missing the real story here jack we're missing the real story they don't want to talk about how that people were signing up to vote at these vape stores and now these news stories are coming out that vape is killing you. That's what's happening.

Whoa. Is that based on the Popeye's kid? That's ridiculous. It's a made-up story. Yeah, I don't know. I do wonder how much ABC News is just preying on the fears of parents. 100%. And how much of this is actually a a crisis i've never heard of bootleg

vapes i don't know why you need a bootleg vape when you can literally go anywhere and buy a vape bootleg vapes actually used to be more of a problem before we had vapes here like i remember when canadian only people that had been in canada had vapes because that was the only place you could get them and they would bring them down and it was like you know you couldn't replace the battery because it was a canadian battery you know shit was like again it was just like it was less regulated before it was legal and now it's legal so yeah why would you yeah right like this news story like sort of tied in like you know you i assumed it was like jewel and like all the products that you see in a 7-eleven but it seems like this is more like not those things and having is this like when there was like k2 yeah i think so it was like when

there was you know the synthetic marijuana that was like K2? Yeah, I think so. It was like when there was, you know, the synthetic marijuana that was like poisoning people. That shit, do you ever, did you ever like fuck with that or see anybody fucked up on that? I fucked with it once.

It doesn't do anything. It doesn't really do anything. I knew a guy who like did a bunch of it and I think he just kind of had like a weird reaction where like, he just felt kind of crazy,

you know, it wasn't like weed at all and his sweat smelled like weird chemicals oh yeah it's really fucking bad it was garbage yeah yeah but yeah i think it's like bath salts essentially you're absolutely i think it's all bullshit man these vapes are everywhere i literally saw this homeless man at 7-eleven the other day who was trying to buy an android charger and they were just like oh we don't have that android charger he's like damn i'll just get a vape then. So it's like, these shits is everywhere, man.

Yeah. So yeah, I mean, I guess super producer DJ Daniel was saying that the origin of vaping was like you had a battery, and then you had the vape juice, and you mixed them together. You got a little bottle of vape juice, a little dropper,

and you unscrew your vape top. Right, yeah. So it was a very hackable thing where you're like add some lemon juice bro throw anything in there yeah but now that there is this more mainstream vape solution of cartridges of cartridges right like you buy from the store uh that that portion of the vape community has gone to the dark side. Yeah. So I don't know. All right. We're going to take a quick break. We'll be right back. Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16th 2017 was murdered.

What up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, what up, that's a that's a beat right there yeah that somebody make that beat so he uh told this really heartbreaking story about having like going over to uh i think afghanistan to pin a medal on a Navy captain who had repelled down a 60-foot ravine under fire. And he peppered this entire story with God's honest truth. Swear to God. Not a joke. Like he kept saying stuff like that.

And this is the God's truth. My word as a Biden, which is- I say that all the time. To be fair, it means Jackson. And almost every detail of the story appears to be incorrect, according to a Washington Post story. Okay, hold up. Hold up. I know I do this a lot as a bit, but this is a for real thing.

Memory is kind of wild because sometimes I'll be chilling at my house and i'll be like man i remember like going and like saving the world from this thing but then i realized that i'm just remembering a movie and that i didn't actually do that yeah no no no for sure you're running for president absolutely absolutely every day memory is extremely fallible i don't think he did this on purpose i don't think he was like ha i'm gonna go out there and them all. I think he is just too trusting of his memory or else he would. Did he also say that the parkland kids visited him in office while he was vice president? And it was another mass shooting.

So, I mean, it's not like, I see. I see. Yeah. It's just, he is old.

He's old, but he's always been this. Every time he runs for president, he gets caught up in saying shit that isn't true, and it's just like his mind is like a blender. Yeah, it's just like putting all these different little details into

stories to make them better. That's the plot of the movie Codename the Cleaner. Is it? Yeah, with Cedric the Entertainer and Lucy codename the cleaner is it yeah with cedric the entertainer and lucy lu go ahead and watch it it's available on hbo did you do you have a piece do you have points on the back end of the codename the cleaner what are you talking about go ahead and check it out be available soon on hbo max go ahead watch an episode of friends and then codename the cleaner right afterwards but it just seems like this is because so this is now like a month straight that he's been getting criticized for this sort of thing.

And it just seems like he like he it's not a thing where he can cut down on the amount of bullshit that is. It's like the more he talks, you're just going to get 40 percent bullshit. that is in it. It's like the more he talks, you're just going to get 40% bullshit. Yeah. And if he talks less, you're going to get 40% bullshit,

but it'll be a smaller sample size. But like, that's just a lot like Trump or like, that's why they put Trump in front of the helicopters all the time to talk to the press. Cause they're hoping that the press just won't hear what he's saying. Cause they know that once he starts talking, he's just going to say some crazy bullshit. And now,

now he just yells in front of that you didn't know about this he's always talking because they're hoping the helicopter will drown him out this is what he does and obama didn't do that that's true he was always talking to the hell he was always at a podium in front of a microphone because he could be trusted to speak to america right but trump is always like i have a a song, you know. That's so true. Damn. And he thinks it's powerful. Like, I mean. He thinks it's really cool.

Because he's like, I'm about to get into this helicopter and fly away. I mean, think about like, what is a better indication of like what Trump wants to look like than the intro to The Apprentice. And he like walks out of a helicopter at the beginning of that show. Yeah, he thinks they're really cool. Yeah, he thinks getting into, getting out of a helicopter at the beginning of that show. Yeah, he thinks they're really cool. Yeah, he thinks getting into, getting out of a helicopter are the coolest things. He also- Trump seems low-key brilliant.

Yeah, he is. Yeah. Did you see that tweet about Christian Gillibrand? That was so funny. Pull it up, Jack. Yeah, I talked about that yesterday. He was like, I'm glad nobody ever figured out

that she was the one I was most afraid of. Like when she backed out. It's so cool. It's like such a fucking shitty move. That team, bro, they kind of funny. Yeah. I mean, it's all. It's all him, man.

It's all him. But what's the last thing? Like what's the last thing that Joe Biden can mess up and then we're going to be like, all right, this dude's brain is cool. Like what if like next month he's just like, you know, there was a presidential candidate that's been going around telling false stories and we're getting this memory mixed up. Will that be like the last straw? It's like, all right, this dude's brain is trash.

So, I mean, the thing that that is the question that this Washington Post article asks is like, does this shit matter anymore with a press like now that Trump's been. Go ahead and say yes. I'm going to say yes. It matters that Trump is still talking like this and it matters that Biden talks like this right I don't think we should have a president that says 40 incomprehensible bullshit it should be comprehensible bullshit right yeah I mean Trump first of all seems very tired there were some press conferences where people did side by side like what he seemed like at the beginning of his first presidential campaign.

And now he just sounds like he's running out of batteries. Yeah. Well, he's very tired from yelling in front of all those helicopters. But Trump lies about stuff that actually has stakes. And Biden lies about stuff that just like makes him like it just kind of supports his idea of what America is and his place in it. So it's like it's not really high stakes stuff, but it could easily end up being high stakes stuff. So my favorite thing about Joe Biden is that he wrote in his book that Obama basically begged him not to run for president and was like, you don't have to do it. And he's like, but I knew he wanted me to really. Yeah.

OK, so Joe Biden released this ad that was like Medicare for all is bad because my son, Beau, died and was helped by Obamacare. And so Obamacare is good. And for some reason, Medicare for All would be an insult to his memory. It doesn't really make any sense. He releases that sometime last week and yeah it was about how his son died and was helped by Obamacare

in his final days and so Obamacare is good enough and Medicare for All would be a bad idea and it's like unnecessary slash insult to my dead son's memory but it turns out uh that in his book he wrote that when his son became sick his medical bills were not actually paid by obamacare but by obama personally obama was like let me help you out joe wait is that not how obamacare works i thought you just paid for our health care obama just pays for our health care

he pays for a lot of shit that i'd be doing yeah but yeah apparently joe joe biden was like oh you know we'll take out a second mortgage on our house or whatever and obama was like no no it's cool i got you even joe biden could not navigate the health care system in this country when he was vice president jesus christ that's bleak yeah it's really sad but now he like, Bo would have wanted you to pay a premium. So Edgar asked before we were recording who I thought the last three people were going to be. And it's been the last three Democrats in the race. No, I said the last people on earth.

You did not understand my question whatsoever. Yeah, still same answer. Ernie Sanders. on earth you did not understand my question whatsoever yeah still same answer ernie sanders so i biden's been sort of a default answer but now it's starting to i'm starting to wonder like can this dude last i don't know man like bloom is off the rose man yeah i mean what do you think egger uh i think he's out man i i feel like it's kind of like you know when everyone's gambling on horses and shit, and they go, this horse is going to clearly make it.

And then you watch the race and that horse has got its ass beat. I feel like that's the Democratic race right now. Totally. With Joe Biden, everyone's like holding him up. I really think it's going to be Warren, Sanders, and Harris, which I like, because it's old, white, Jewish man, white woman, and black woman. And it's like, this is going to be opinionated. Right.

This is going to be opinionated. Right. This is going to be opinionated. And that's what we're looking for. Can't wait for those SNL cold opens, baby. Oh, baby. Oh, they're going to be hot. Yeah. Is Bernie Sanders the easiest presidential candidate to impersonate, I feel like? No, no, no, no.

I don't think so. Who's easier? Howard Dean. Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton is very easy. Bill Clinton is very easy because he's just a relaxed, no, no, no. I don't think so. Who's easier? Howard Dean. Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton is very easy. Bill Clinton is very easy because he's just a relaxed, like, how you do a Bill Clinton impression is you're like, I'm Southern and I just came. Yeah, that's right.

I'm Southern and I just came. And you do the hand thing with them and then, you know, and then you say, I did not. And that's the whole thing. Trump is- Funny that you said just came because clinton uh one of the details you find out uh about like when you look into the lewinsky thing is that he would never come because he thought that it was like like released his power and he got like power from not coming he was a no fap guy yeah he was a no fap guy damn bro that makes me respect and then

the like blue dress when he he blew on the dress. That was his downfall. That was his downfall. And he was like, I broke a personal rule. And blamed himself. That's what he was upset about. Coming. Damn, bro. If he had kept this no fap shit, who knows where the world would be right now.

Yeah, totally. No George Bush. Whoa. Third term. Third term. Definitely no George Bush. Do you think we would have gone straight from Bill to Hillary? Why not?

Yeah, why not? Well, we would have gone Bill to Gore to Hillary. It just would have been an honest thought. We would have gone Bill, Gore, Hillary, and then Chelsea probably. Right. Oh, and then Chelsea would be the best one. I'm still waiting for her to enter this race. I mean, come on.

After that girl schooled her in the schoolyard, she ain't going nowhere, bro. I know. After she and Jelaine Maxwell was at her wedding I love that picture that is amazing also oh god what was it I was reading about Chelsea Clinton Chelsea Clinton speaking of rich people's houses

Chelsea Clinton's house is an entire city block in New York it's like it's an apartment building but only has four apartments and each one is like a block long and it's crazy. Her bedroom is the length of the block. Yeah. Man, that's kind of dope, though.

I mean, it sounds great. Don't you look at wealth sometimes and be like, you know what? I get it. Oh, absolutely. Especially in New York City. I'm like, yeah, that would be great. I would love to live in this whole block. Yeah.

If I'm the Koch brothers, I'm like, of course I don't want trains to exist. This is fucking up my money. Right. What the hell? They're relatable, of course I don't want trains to exist. This is fucking up my money. Right. What the hell? They're relatable, if nothing else. Absolutely. That's true. So I wanted to talk about this CBP officer who denied a visa to a Palestinian student

who was going to Harvard. It happened last week, but it's just a crazy story that we never got around to covering. It happened last week, but it's just a crazy story that we never got around to covering. So this 17-year-old student from Palestine by way of Lebanon had his visa canceled at Logan Airport in Boston after facing hours of interrogation. And the reason that the CBP officer gave was because his friends had criticized the U.S. government on social media. So they took his phone, they took his computer, and he hadn't liked, he was way more careful than I have been on social media.

And he was deemed a threat. Well, you're not from Palestine, Jack. Yeah, exactly. Well, see, this story is bad because now every immigrant mom is like cheering and going, you see, I told you, you are the friends that you keep. I told you, Edgar, you are the friends that you keep. And it's like, damn, she was right. Yeah.

Just be friends with your mom and her friends. That's all you need. Just like your mom's posts and that's it. That's true. Yeah. Trump's assistant has been resigned, I guess, from her position. Is that how you say it? I believe she was resigned.

She was on vacation. I think one resigns. I think that's an active. Yeah. I don't know how much she had to do with it, but apparently something happened with regards to how she shares information about his family. What kind of, like a personal assistant? Yeah.

So this is an assistant whose name I had heard before. The Root called it the whitest white woman name of all time. It's like Madeline Vanderhoot or something like that. Mercy. Very waspy. But she is the one who reportedly wept openly the night of the election when it became clear that he was going to win. Yes. And they said it was his longtime personal assistant.

So I assumed it was like a older woman. She's 28, this personal assistant. So she was like, I guess, 25 at the time and was just like, oh, fuck. Her name is Madeline Westerhout. Westerhoot. Yeah. Westerhout. Whatever it is.

Whatever it is. It is a very waspy name. She was a RNC person, like head of the RNC's assistant. So she's been fired now. She's been fired. For sharing information about the family. Yes. We all know what that information was.

I don't. What do you think it is? His dick size, bro. I think she told. That's next on my Google search history. Yeah. I didn't even know that that was a recent revelation. God, one of the best.

Sorry to Epstein everyone again, but one of the best parts of reading all the testimony is all those women describing his dick exactly the same way right egg shaped egg shaped yeah like you know the whole you know everyone's like oh these women just want money and I'm like these women had to fucking egg shaped dick right so many times

an egg shaped money an egg shaped dick that couldn't fully get erect that means that it gets bigger as it goes down. No, it's small at the bottom, gets big in the middle, and then gets small again at the top. It sounds

like a real curse. Well, you know, you got a wide base. He has a wide base. He has a wide base. Right. His base of support is narrowing. his base of support is narrowing. His base of support is narrowing. Yeah.

Like, that's a problem, man. You know, he had a lot of problems, Jack. A great dick to have. Yeah. And I'm not trying to body shame anybody's dick. Right. Yo, respect your dick. The dick you got, be proud of it.

Seriously. Just know that if you rape a bunch of people, they'll describe it to the world. Absolutely. There you go. Absolutely. Bolsonaro know that if you rape a bunch of people they'll describe it to the world. Absolutely. There you go. Absolutely. Bolsonaro, guys. Let's talk about him. Now that man

is online. I like that song. Sergio Mendez. Hey, Bolsonaro. We have to close out this section on thin-skinned men by talking about Bolsonaro. Did you know he used to be a YouTube guy?

Bolsonaro? Bolsonaro was a YouTube right-winger in Brazil before he became the Brazilian fucking attempted president. I love a success story. Yeah, me too. I bet he was a failed comedian. That's even better, bro. He did some stand-up. He did some stand-up.

He was like, I'm bigger than this. Right. Y'all ever be looking at the Amazon and be like this shit could be gone right some people look at the comedy seller and they go i'm gonna take that and hyrule scenario was like the amazon this would be my legacy destroying it so one of the conditions that he's given on accepting the 20 million dollars which obviously is not enough but it's what is was being offered last week when he turned it down to fight the Amazon fires was- No, no, no.

Here's the thing. He started the Amazon fires. Right. So I don't know if fighting is- I mean, not to nitpick, but to stop the- Because people have described them as wildfires, and they're not. Right. They're arson. Yeah. They're as wildfires and they're not. Right. They're arson.

Yeah. Yeah. They're government-endorsed arson. Right. These fires were set on purpose. This is not like, uh-oh, it's on fire as a result of global warming. Right. It's on fire to create more farmland.

Right. So anyway, sorry, go on. So someone was like $20 million to not destroy one of the world's largest producers of oxygen. Right. to not destroy one of the world's largest producers of oxygen. Right, and I think to help try and get what is currently on fire under control. And he said he wouldn't take it unless it was Emmanuel Macron who was making the offer, and he said he wouldn't accept it unless Macron apologized to him. Macron apologized to him.

And the thing that he was asking him to apologize to him about was that Macron had basically taken offense when Bolsonaro made fun of Macron's wife. He was basically like, don't humiliate the guy, ha ha, when somebody talked about how his wife is old. Macron's wife is old? Yeah, she is older. And Macron was like, what can I tell you?

It's sad, it's sad for him and for Brazilians. I think that Brazilian women are probably ashamed to read that their president has done that, which is like make this comment and like laugh at somebody making fun of Macron's wife. make this comment and laugh at somebody making fun of Macron's wife. And Bolsonaro basically wants him- This is the worst beef. I'm sorry.

I know. This is so boring. He wants him to- And he's burning down the Amazon for this beef. Yeah. That's a mastermind. Just drop a track. He wants him to basically be like,

I'm sorry for objecting to you calling my wife old and ugly, which is such a like petty shitty move. But don't you kind of hope that he wins though? No. What? Just to hear somebody apologize for that shit and give you money. That's wild. Yeah.

I mean, it would be a new level of awfulness, but it'd be cool if he and McCrone just went into the fires. Right. I think that'd be a new level of awfulness. It'd be cool if he and Macron just went into the fires. Right. I think that would be a good way to settle this. One person goes in, or two people go in, one comes out. Have y'all ever seen the movie Lost City of Zed? No.

Yeah, I have. Lost City of Zed. That's very British of you. Well, that's how it's pronounced, Jack. Okay. Lost City of Zed is what other people might have heard it pronounced as. With the dude from Sons of Anarchy and Spider-Man. Right.

Yeah. But it's about this dude who explores the Amazon and stuff like that and was the first person to be like, yo, I think brown people built cities first. Right. And everyone was like, ain't no way that's true. He's like, dude, I went and I saw them and they're like no way man you got to go back it must have been aliens yeah they're like you got to go back and prove it and then he goes back and he doesn't come back right yeah that they yeah the the idea that they had any sort of advanced civilization was impossible uh and we should do that with Macron.

You know who should do that? Dior. And we're going to talk a little bit about that in a moment. But first, we're going to take another break.

And briefly, we are going to check in with our U.S. Open correspondent, Edgar Monplaisir. What's going on in the U.S. Open of tennis? Serena Williams will keep beating up on these white ladies. And that's been Edgar. That's been our coverage of the US Open. Let's talk about Dior, you guys. They've got a new

ad that is... Which Dior? The Jewish one? Which Dior? Yeah, which Dior? I don't know. There's two Dior's? There's two diors there's two diors there's muslim dior jewish dior and christian dior it's not the best in the biz for nothing thank you so they've got a new ad that is a Native American doing a ceremonial dance that it says, We are the land.

And the text that appears alongside it says, An authentic journey deep into the Native American soul in a sacred, founding, and secular territory. What? Yes. More to come September 1st. More land? Yes. No, no more land yes no no no no no no uh more appropriation uh the now this so this is a uh a perfume or cologne i'm not sure which uh i thought it was land no no so we are the land is just the idea. Okay. Obviously.

No, but. That's right. So this scent sums up the idea of Native Americans being the land. Does it smell like blood? Probably a little bit. There's like blood mixed with passion fruit. But so this is a scent uh that is called savage it's basically savage with a u added so we found a longer version of the ad that gives it context uh and the way that we get context is uh

we see johnny depp yes johnny depppp walking through a desert with an electric guitar. Finally. And he looks up, startled like a meerkat. And then there is a young, attractive woman in a wolf fur who looks up at him, startled. Like, what is he doing here? Is she on all fours or is's standing she's uh i think she's standing it's it's actually that's a good note but that's a good note right uh and then johnny depp shreds a nasty guitar solo in the middle of the desert and then they cut to that dude doing the ceremonial dance and then what happens to the land lady uh she's just there you know does she

enjoy the shredding or uh she like it's hard to say she i think she's just aware of his presence but she's not actually like spatially there it's more of like she's the spirit of the land right exactly um is she white what's up with that What's going on there? I don't know. It's hard to say. Man, let's rewrite this ad, bro. Please. So it should start in darkness. Okay.

And then a light comes in, right? Then you hear the howling of a wolf. And then you cut to that lady. Right. And then she's on all fours because she's a wolf. It would be crazy if she was walking. If she was walking, that's a whole different commercial. Okay.

So she's all on fours. If she's walking, then it's Crash Bandicoot. Exactly. It's a world where animals are walking. That's not a world we want to live in. No. So then Johnny Depp comes out of the ground, and he's crushing it on the guitar solo, but then someone stops him, and it's Elizabeth Warren,

and she says, I should be playing the guitar solo, but then someone stops him, and it's Elizabeth Warren, and she says, I should be playing the guitar. Right. And then she takes the guitar and keeps playing it, right? Right. The results of her DNA test flash on the screen behind her.

On the screen, just to make sure everyone knows we know who she is. She's legit. Mm-hmm. And then all of a sudden, I'm trying to think of where I can take this commercial

to where it's not problematic. Well, do you want a suggestion? Yeah, tag in. The wolf girl whips out a bass and they shred together. Yeah, yeah. They make beautiful music together. Like when Red Hot Chili Peppers was playing at the Slosson Castle. Yes. And then the guitarist and the bassist.

I don't know the bassist's name. His name is Flea. I don't know the guitarist's name. But they were, ain't that the lead singer's name. His name is Flea. I don't know the guitarist's name. But they were, they were, ain't that the lead singer? Yeah. Yeah, doesn't he play guitar?

Nah, he's not the guitarist. I want to say John Favreau, but that's not right. Isn't that the drummer? Go teach a little bit, you know. And they're just playing

with each other. Right. I was looking at Trace Cyrus. Trace Cyrus has a lot of portraits of Native Americans on other. Right. I was looking at a Trace Cyrus. Trace Cyrus has a lot of portraits of Native Americans on him. Okay. For a guy who grew up in, a white guy who grew up in Tennessee and then now lives in LA. Right.

But how are you, how is he supposed to show respect? I mean. I don't know. That's a question I'm always asking. Right. Exactly. Ah, Trace. How do I show respect for a race I'm not?

Yeah. Get a tattoo. That's right. Oh, well, that's why I got respect for a race I'm not? Yeah. Get a tattoo. That's right. Oh, well, that's why I got so many tattoos of white people on my body. Speaking of white people, let's talk about Cadbury, because they have attempted to kind of address racism, bring unity to the world through what they're calling their unity bar. It is all the different shades

of chocolate that they make in one bar. Jack, I'm done. I'm going to leave. Yeah. You got the white chocolate in this picture that they've chosen to put at the top the white chocolate in this picture that they've chosen to put at the top, the white chocolate.

It's which way you look at it, Jack. It is. Is it a bar? It is a bar. It's a chocolate bar that is, it looks like a. Oh, I see. It looks like a regular chocolate bar with little squares, but it's a gradient. It's a gradient.

That's right. That was the word I was searching for. It looks like a makeup palette. It does. It looks like a makeup palette for different skin tones. Those are the colors. It goes from real pale to real dark. It's like a MAC foundation picture.

Right. Now, this is not the first time that Cadbury has attempted to compare their chocolate to skin color. attempted to compare their chocolate to skin color. They also had an ad where they compared one of their chocolate bars to Naomi Campbell by saying it was like a diva. Move over, Naomi. There's a new diva in town, and it was a chocolate bar. And she thought that that was racist.

And so they've already had that in their mind. Like, okay, that's not a good thing to do ever to compare skin color to chocolate. And then they did this. I don't know, man. Cadbury seems like a pretty woke chocolate company to me. Okay. This is totally working on me. I think that this is a beautiful, you know,

display of racial harmony through colonialist chocolate. And, uh, that's all I need. I'm offended because I can't eat chocolate. As listeners of Culture Kings would know, I'm deathly allergic to chocolate. Are you really?

Yeah. So I'm offended that, you know, sucks, man. Yeah. It would make such a woke bar that you can't eat. I can't enjoy it. I can only, and what sucks is that i can only eat the white version of it because it doesn't

have actual chocolate in it wow oh that's so sad what do you think of white chocolate my comments will be set off the air okay what i love it so this was also done in india this is like part of an Indian holiday. They released the same bar in India? They released this bar particularly in India. And people have noted that even though it has all the different types of chocolate, they're still segregated. And that is probably not a great look for India or really any racist country anywhere in the world. any racist country anywhere in the world. What the bar really shows us is that people are a spectrum,

but they should stay on their end of the spectrum. They should stay inside their little square of sweetness. So what's your favorite candy, Edgar? Oh, well, see, I'm not really a sweets person. I like Sour Punch straws. Okay. I like Starburst, and I like really a sweets person. I like Sour Punch straws. Okay. I like Starburst, and I like white chocolate Reese's. Those are good. All right, guys.

It's time for another edition of What We're Fucking With. Usually, Miles comes in and is like, with, with, with. I thought we were going to get a poof. I'm not Miles. So, fuck you. Edgar, you want to open us up? What's something you're fucking with right now? I'm fucking with three things.

First is the show South Side. And as you guys know, people who are big time fans, OG fans, know that every season I pick a show that I say, everyone watch this show, and if it gets cancelled, I'll fight you. And every season y'all let me down. Y'all let the mayor get cancelled. Y'all let Detroiters get cancelled. But

this time, y'all did not let me down. Yeah, they already ordered a second season. Southside got renewed for a second season, baby! I mean, this is kind of against brand for you, though. I know, because it didn't get canceled, and I'm not allowed to be sad. I was very prepared for it to get canceled, but apparently it's doing very well in the black market for Comedy Central, which just simply means they're watching it. Right.

Oh, man. Speaking of the Detroiters, that show is so fucking good. So good, and I told y'all, don't let it get canceled. I came on this very show when I said good. So good. And I told y'all, don't let it get canceled. I came on this very show when I said that. I know. And I went and canceled it before even watching it. I now regret that decision. Do you have something, Sarjun, you're fucking with?

What I'm fucking with? Absolutely. I'm fucking with a few things. Number one, putting your face masks in the fridge. If you have sheet masks, put them in the fridge. It's hot out. Put your face wipes in the fridge. If you have sheet masks, put them in the fridge. It's hot out. Put your face wipes in the fridge. Cleansing wipes.

It's so nice. I got a really good comic book called Bicycle Day by Brian Blomworth. Put that in the fridge too? Yeah, you can put that in the fridge. It's about Albert Hoffman discovering LSD. And it's a really beautiful book. Oh, yeah, I heard about that. It's gorgeous.

It's just really fucking beautiful. They're all like these weird sort of goofy type dog people. And the art's just great. I loved it a lot. And I'm always fucking with Means TV. I'm always fucking with Means TV. I'm always on here to tell you to subscribe to Means TV. Please give us some money because I'm about to make some shows with them and it's going to come out in 2020.

It's going to be really good. Follow MeansTV on YouTube or Twitter or Instagram. Yeah. Yeah. Bicycle Day, that's like an actual day on which Albert Hoffman, who was a chemist, right? a chemist right like the that's actually how lsd was discovered is he like touched some lsd in a lab and then rode his bicycle home and started tripping like mid bicycle ride yeah yeah in the book they talk about how like there's kind of like two days so like out sorry april 16th i want to say um and this was in the late 40s uh he was like accidentally exposed to some and then

he like went home was like dizzy and then the next day he was like accidentally exposed to some and then he like went home and was like dizzy. And then the next day he was like, I think it was this stuff that made me dizzy. I'm going to sample an amount that could not possibly have a strong effect on me. And it was like 25 milligrams, which we now know is like a lot of LSD. So then, yeah, he biked home

and was like tripping hard. Thought he was dying, you know. Yeah. That's dope. Yeah, it's pretty cool. And just the art is so, so good. The book's great. I've never done LSD.

Really? Because there was this dude in my class that did it a lot, and he would talk a lot. And I said, I don't want to be that guy. You don't want to be that guy. That's not my brand. Yeah. There was a guy in my class who did LSD a lot, too, and now he's like a famous DJ. What's his name?

Shout him out. Greg Jones. Shout out Greg Jones. Shout out DJ Greg Jones. You're a famous DJ now. You're a famous DJ. What's his name? Shout him out. Greg Jones. Shout out Greg Jones. Shout out DJ Greg Jones. Your famous DJ now. I looked him up because I was like, I hope Greg Jones is okay. He really did so many drugs. I was kind of like, I hope

Nah, it's not as good. Not as well written. Character arcs are pretty predictable. Predictable, babe. But it's not as good not as well written character arcs are pretty predictable predictable babe but it's very good season two is good I hear it's so good I have not started watching it yet

it's so good tweet at me who you think will run the company by the end of the season oh shit cause I already know so the answer that

for season one would be still the dead still Logan right okay for those who haven't watched the dead. Still Logan. Right, okay. For those who haven't watched the first season and wanted it spoiled by their favorite podcaster, Jack. Sorry. Spoiler.

But yeah, tweet at me and tell me who you think, and then I'll tell you if you're right or wrong. Okay. Because I know factually. How do you know that? I just be in these streets. Okay. Is that really how you found that out? The streets in these streets. Okay. Is that really? How you found that out? The streets are HBO Max.

HBO Max, guys. We're going to have friends. No other streaming service is going to have. We, I mean, they are. What am I saying? We. I don't have anything to do with it. They are going to have friends.

What other streaming service is going to have friends? None. Edgar clearly has some sort of points with HBO Max. They're bringing back practical magic. See, there we go. Got somebody in the room. Boom. I'm subscribed.

A show that I'm fucking with is Dark on Netflix, the German series-length Donnie Darko. It's like, which, by the way, Donnie Darko doesn't really hold up, but it's like smart in a dumb way. Hey, hey, hey. It's like dumb people smart, and I like it. You know what? Let's not say things that we're going to regret later, Jack. Okay, I apologize.

So Dark is this German series that's all about time travel. Okay, did you see Southland Tales? No. What a terrible movie that I've watched so many times. Donnie Darko fucking blew my mind the first time I saw it. Watch Southland Tales. Why did you watch Donnie Darko? But just as a, did you like see a trailer and you were like, this looks good?

I think I saw it like when I was in high school, like just because it had just come out like a couple years before. So you saw it in the theater? You're of that generation, right? Of like all those guys were like oh yeah uh well what would tarantino think about this is my fucking dad actually not a big fincher head but that was like my identity among my high school friends was the guy who's not that into finitcher. No fucking way. Oh, no. No, but there was like a time when you just like saw whatever like new indie movie people were talking about. Donnie Darko was that for a little while.

Because it came out pretty soon after 9-11. Yeah. So you saw it in October 2001. No, no, I didn't see it in theaters. I just saw it like on the VHS. Totally, same. Totally. I went to Best Video. Wait, so why didn't see it in theaters i just saw it like on the vhs totally same totally i went to best video wait so why why did you see it oh uh because in uh i was in middle school and uh you know one of my teachers to you know on the like last day before break when you don't do anything

they showed us october sky and i was like i'm gonna fuck jake gyllenhaal and so then i was like i gotta find out what other movies this guy has been in I watched Donnie Darko because I thought Jake Gyllenhaal was hot and it really went a different direction than I expected you're like a teeny like it's like a teeny bopper and I was like Jake Gyllenhaal what

it's probably like what it was like for those kids who like lost their mind over the Beatles being like cute boy bands when like Sergeant Peppers came out and they were like yeah that's pretty yeah he's like I am the egg man and they were like I wanted to fuck this guy why are you the egg man um also spin drifts are come on so much better than LaCroix. They're not the same thing at all. But they're so good.

They're really good. I can't stop drinking them. Like, it's a problem. So that's where I'm at, personally. That's what you're fun with? Unhappy with it, Jack. Unhappy with it. You don't like Spindrifts?

You're living life like a 45-year-old white woman. I know. Spindrift and Netflix and German Netflix shows. year old white woman i know well i'm not very far from german netflix shows what why don't you like spindrift other than i gotta say white chocolate rhesus is kind of a 45 year old white really then i'll own it i mean i also like girls that's oh yeah i love that show i watched it till the end i didn't watch it till the end how's the last couple seasons i mean look there are some banger episodes in that last season, but I'll tell you, that last episode is straight doo-doo.

Yes. It's not good. It's very bad. Wait, I'll tell you why I don't like Spindrift, because if I'm going to drink something with bubbles, it should be soda. I don't want fake soda. Okay, so you don't like LaCroix either. No.
