Starting point is 00:06:34 It may become the new What do they call it? AAVE? Yeah, yeah That's what the white folks call it Somebody needs to tell my neighbor, Duncan To stop saying that. If you could guess, he is very white. He's very white.
Starting point is 00:06:49 He's very white. I mean, listen, you know, I don't see too many white people saying that. I see more white people asking, what the fuck does that mean? But listen, you know, but but for those who know and now, you know, Holly, now, you know, the appreciation has grown, now you know. Yeah, thank you. The appreciation has grown. Absolutely. I'm so excited to overhear it in conversation and not say it back, but I'm going to go, indeed. Indeed.
Starting point is 00:07:12 You can say, yes, yes, bet, indeed, my good sir. My good sir, Duncan. Holly, 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 the republicans are like just now openly in favor of child labor so we're gonna talk about that like they're just out passing passing laws to be to make it easier like that there's been some good reporting from the new york times we got we got to shout it out when it in the rare instance that it happens about all the child labor that happens in like these massive corporations you
Starting point is 00:07:51 know factories just loaded down with child labor and the republicans response has been like yeah we need to actually deregulate that so to make it easier so we're going to talk about that uh we're going to do a little c-pack recap because uh donald trump claimed that he could solve the ukraine russia war in just one day and then michael knolls from the daily wire flat out stated that in his words transgenderism must be eradicated from public life entirely which is causing calling for genocide and with a name like michael moles you know he got picked on as a kid that's that's why he an asshole now michael knolls yeah oh no oh it's no i thought you said michael moles oh okay all right all right then no he's just an asshole because he's an asshole same last name is beyonce so he
Starting point is 00:08:43 it's really things could have gone so much better so much better it was just constantly hanging over his head how much he had failed you know because of beyonce uh creed 3 made all the money at the box office it's the highest grossing opening weekend for a sports movie ever oh highest grossing opening weekend for any of the Rocky films. I mean I guess that's implied. By the first thing I said. But still it was pretty cool. And I didn't see it.
Starting point is 00:09:12 But I'm excited to see it. And it just seems like a good sign. For movie theaters in general. I feel like we're seeing the reverse. Of what we saw with. All the studios. And you know. Coming to the streaming thing. Like being like well the pandemic has started so it will be here forever and just like spending all their money
Starting point is 00:09:33 on streaming content like we're seeing the inverse of that where they're like now too slow to be get get the movies ramped up again maybe i don't. But it seems like there's a bunch of big movies coming out in March. So maybe we'll come to the end of that. All of that, plenty more. But first, Holly, we like to ask our guests, what is something from your search history? Oh, my God. I'm going to be painfully honest right now. Okay. There is one thing and one thing only in my search history all weekend. This is a shame for myself that I'm admitting this, but it is all Vanderpump rules related.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Do we know about this epic drama that has unfolded over the weekend by any chance in the Vanderpump rules universe? Oh my god. I can give you the quickest rundown of all time. Alright, so that's what our show is about actually. Let's just do that's what our show is about, actually.
Starting point is 00:10:26 Let's just do that. Vanderpump Rules. Let's go. Vanderpump Rules is the greatest reality television show ever created. I don't watch other reality shows. I have no basis for this whatsoever. I don't know if I've ever seen A Real Housewives. But this show is a bunch of monstrous single people started monstrous single people that live in west hollywood working at a restaurant acting like absolute dipshits because they all had no money
Starting point is 00:10:51 and they would spend it all but now they all have money and it's so much worse but this is this is the rundown is this one guy tom sandoval cheated on his girlfriend of nine years with raquel i'm just gonna start i'm just gonna on his girlfriend of nine years with Raquel. I'm just going to start. I'm just going to throw the names out there. Yeah. With Raquel. These are all characters on the show, unless otherwise noted.
Starting point is 00:11:11 Okay. Yes. Raquel has been making out with Tom Schwartz, Tom Sandoval's business partner and best friend who just got divorced from his wife, Katie, of 12 years right after Raquel called off her engagement to james who used to date kristin who used to date tom it's great oh my god it's they all dating each other it's like high school theater yeah they're really giving up like whatever we thought tristan thompson drama was with chloe kardashian i'm telling you this is this is 10 trillion times worse
Starting point is 00:11:44 it's incredible. I'm in a chokehold. I can't stop thinking about it. Okay. I love this. I love this. I also love that, you know, like Vanderpump Rules is a great name. Like, I've been to, what's the bar in WeHo that is from somebody from that show? Sir.
Starting point is 00:12:00 Sir? Yeah, there's so many now. But that was the original one right yeah that's like the og i've been there i i just love the name i've never watched it i only watched the challenge and the bachelor and then i had a reality show podcast where i had to pretend like i actually watched reality shows so spoiler alert i lied um but they paid me so but i just really just love that name it has like the best name i think out of any of the reality shows vanderpump rules it's kind of giving o'doyle rules a little yeah a little bit like okay so you're saying the drama is there
Starting point is 00:12:42 it's so great my question is like are they all sleeping with one another because they know that they're all characters on the show and like they want like the way that a royal family will intermarry within the family because they want to consolidate power and like keep all the money for it keep all the power for themselves like yeah is there is something because that that web of social and sexual connections between the characters like is reminds me of like the hapsburg family tree you know like it's just so interwoven and yeah i i wonder if there's some incentive there i feel like that was a very generous comparison yeah uh well if you know yeah i mean it didn't end up so well for the habsburgs
Starting point is 00:13:35 but i'm sure they think they're the royal family i mean they are i would say unfortunately the royal family of bravo right now you know so they So I, I think there's something to that. These particular people in question, I don't know how cement's words. They are absolute losers. So I just think people, people in public probably won't sleep with them. I don't know why.
Starting point is 00:13:57 I just assume blanket statement. You see this man's face. He looks like a generic Harry styles want wannabe okay um in the worst way and because there's a good way to look like a generic harry styles wannabe yeah i think that's a base model harry styles that's good but no this guy looks like he wants to be harry style so bad and he sees a flare pants and he just buys it like that's there's no questions asked but it's i mean my favorite part about the whole thing, and listen, I know you guys don't know this drama,
Starting point is 00:14:27 but I'm so excited to talk about it. But this whole thing, the best part is that he dressed up as his mistress for Halloween in front of his current girlfriend and they all hung out together. How crazy is that? Drama. How crazy is that?
Starting point is 00:14:42 Drama. That is drama. You know what? It would be funny, babe. Yeah it? drama it would be funny babe yeah what a mess it's such a mess I'm under a spell I open my phone I try to look at other things and I literally can't
Starting point is 00:14:59 you can't I can't you are hooked ass you are hooked ass. You are hooked ass. I really am. What's something you think is overrated, Holly? Oh, man. Only because I keep getting this.
Starting point is 00:15:15 For some reason, it's been an epidemic in the past few weeks. I think telling people they look like a celebrity is overrated. Stop telling them that. It never fares well. I think any time you go up to somebody, even if you think it's a compliment, celebrity is overrated stop telling them that don't tell it never fares well i think okay any anytime you go up to somebody even if you think it's a compliment somehow it's not a compliment when you tell them it's not celebrity it never is unless you tell me i look like idris elba or some shit i don't want to hear it right but they'll always they'll always find a way they'll
Starting point is 00:15:39 be like you look like idris elba flew on a red eye. Like they'll always add a little thing on the end of it. I swear. Yeah. Right. Or, man, you know who you look like? Who? Idris Elba from that one scene in Thor. When he was dying.
Starting point is 00:15:55 Man, that's how you look. Who do you get, Holly? Who do you get? Oh, my God. The greatest hits of most recent I got. Oh, I got Moaning Myrtle from Harry Potter if you're familiar recently she's a dead pervert
Starting point is 00:16:09 I know the character but yeah she's a dead pervert well her name is Moaning Myrtle so yeah who haunts like a bathroom right haunts the boys bathroom exclusively she's a real treat
Starting point is 00:16:24 I got iCarly if I were if she was into drugs I got that Yeah, haunts the boys' bathroom exclusively. She's a real treat. I got iCarly if she was into drugs. I got that. I mean, that's cool. Listen. Somebody thought it was a compliment. I mean, listen, you know. Maybe they want Miranda Cosgrove in these streets doing crack cocaine.
Starting point is 00:16:46 I don't know. I know. I got last night. I got last night. I got somebody told me I look like I had my hair in a ponytail and glasses on. And they said I look like a girl from a cell phone commercial. And then when I asked to follow up, I was like, oh, which one? Like hoping to have a better compliment than what I thought it was.
Starting point is 00:17:05 She goes, oh, just any. any oh you look like you do you look like a commercial girl yeah you look like the avatar that they build on top of that's what i look like so i just think you look like holly brown you look like that's right that's what you look like has anyone ever told you you look like holly brown this is one of the rules of modern etiquette that we've like the new york magazine did this like 400 rule list of like these this is how you should text this is what you should do when splitting a bill this is and like a lot of it is way off base but i the way that you are addicted to vanderpump rules i'm addicted to this magazine article to the point that i bought the like paper magazine and one of the rules of etiquette that i do feel like we we've all agreed is just good
Starting point is 00:18:00 like it should be canon for everyone is like don't tell people who you think they look like. It never goes well. No. I have an eye condition so my left eye doesn't work properly. I don't know how else to say it other than my left eye is broken. But sometimes I have this and then I always get compared to celebrities that are
Starting point is 00:18:20 cross-eyed. I'm like why would people why is that coming out of your mouth? It never makes sense, but at least they're quasi-hot even if they're into drugs. Right. Bonus.
Starting point is 00:18:35 You look like Columbo if he was into drugs. Is he the one, Peter Falk, who had a wandering eye? Oh, God. I don't know, but someone will probably tell me tomorrow, so I'll let you know. That's a real old person reference. Who are some cross-eyed celebrities, actually? Maybe I only know
Starting point is 00:18:51 one, and I got really upset about it, so I made it seem like there's a hundred, but there's just Sutton Foster is like a Broadway actress. She's incredible, and she's got a wonky eye, and everyone tells me I look like Sutton Foster. The only one I know of Sutton Foster. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:06 The only one I know of is Forrest Whitaker. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Forrest Whitaker. Yeah. Forrest Whitaker got the eye. Yeah, yeah. The wonky.
Starting point is 00:19:17 I have the eye, so I'm allowed to call it wonky day in and day out. I look stupid, and I know it. Okay. No. Not at all. Not at all not at all i told you you look like holly brown that's right oh i love her holly brown don't look stupid that's right i also have a slightly crossed eye so my my my eye also this one my eyes is like the it doesn't open as wide as the other eye. We all in the family.
Starting point is 00:19:45 Yeah, we all have a fucked up eyeball. What's something you think is underrated? Ooh, chain restaurants. I think chain restaurants are highly underrated. I think everyone will die for one.
Starting point is 00:20:02 And it'll always be one that someone else would respond with, ew. You know? Sure. But I've had some of the best meals. Like, CPK is mine. California Pizza Kitchen. That's my absolute number one.
Starting point is 00:20:14 I would eat it every meal. If I was on death row, they'd say, what would you like to eat? I'd say, tostada pizza, please. Immediately. Yeah. I think everyone has one, and I like finding out which ones they are. Yeah. Yeah. Jaquese, what's yours oh oh oh i got a lot let me let me tell you something about chain restaurants they they're chained for a reason you know you know what you're getting
Starting point is 00:20:33 the formula the formula is created to appeal to the masses you know uh so i i'm a fan of a few listen like comedian feud uh we give out olive garden gift cards because i love me some olive garden then bread sticks on point don't you know the opening act of an olive garden with the bread sticks and salad is unrivaled yeah and then also you can get uh you can get a bottle of wine at olive garden for like 20, which is how much it costs in the store. So, you know, other places you get a glass of wine for like $20. You get a bottle of wine for $20. Also, give me some IHOP pancakes every day of the week.
Starting point is 00:21:13 I love IHOP. Yeah. Oh, love me some IHOP. Love me some IHOP. There's probably so many people listening right now. They're like, IHOP. And then they're going to go against you and say Denny's. My brother has eaten every menu item from Denny's, I just realized.
Starting point is 00:21:27 He told me. Really? Okay. He said, pass on the steak. Hot tip. Good tip. Pass on the Denny's steak. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:38 We are a chain restaurant friendly podcast. Hell yeah. Yeah. Hell yeah. Especially California Pizza Kitchen. only podcasts hell yeah yeah especially california pizza kitchen we had just like a run for a long time about rhcpk like oh no way red hot chili peppers needed to get into the california pizza kitchen business oh my god i mean california it's such a match it's so good that they like sell their pizzas across the country frozen that's how you know the piece is good it's so good that they like sell their pieces across the country frozen that's how you know
Starting point is 00:22:06 the piece it's good it's good shit it's good stuff it's like when you go to in and out you know what you're getting every time some people like to argue in and out's not as good and it's overhyped but the best thing about in and out is consistency baby you get to go yeah the same thing every time it's never tasting different you can't say that about other places. The prices can't be beat. The price truly can't be beat. If In-N-Out sold bottles of wine, they would be $17. That would be it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:37 Man, I thought Olive Garden was so fancy when I was a kid, though. Yeah. That was our night out. That was our, like, when we went out to dinner, you know. Yeah. That was a very special occasion. We got to go to Olive Garden. And they give you those little Andy's mints at the end of the meal. You know, pop the things in your mouth so your breath don't smell like cheese and wheat.
Starting point is 00:22:55 It's beautiful. It's a beautiful thing. It's a beautiful thing. It really is. Those are so much better than the other one. Like the just white chalky mints that some restaurants give out. That was always such a bummer when we would hit that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:11 Yeah. All right. Let's take a quick break and then we'll be back to talk about some news. I'm Jess Casavetto, executive producer of the hit Netflix documentary series, Dancing for the Devil, the 7M TikTok cult. And I'm Clea Gray, former member of 7M Films and Shekinah Church.

Hey, I'm Gianna Pradente. And I'm Jemay Jackson-Gadsden. We're the hosts of Let's Talk Offline, a new podcast from LinkedIn News and iHeart Podcasts.
Starting point is 00:24:32 When you're just starting out in your career, you have a lot of questions, like how do I speak up when I'm feeling overwhelmed? Or can I negotiate a higher salary if this is my first real job? Girl, yes. Each week, we answer your unfiltered work questions. Think of us as your work besties you can turn to for advice. And if we don't know
Starting point is 00:24:52 the answer, we bring in experts who do, like resume specialist Morgan Saner. The only difference between the person who doesn't get the job and the person who gets the job is usually who applies. Yeah, I think a lot about that quote. What is it? Like you miss a hundred percent of the shots you never take. Yeah. Rejection is scary, but it's better than you rejecting yourself. Together, we'll share what it really takes to thrive in the early years of your career without sacrificing your sanity or sleep. Listen to Let's Talk Offline on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcastss, or wherever you get your podcasts. In 1982, Atari players had one thing on their minds, Sword Quest. This wasn't just a new game. Atari promised 150 grand in prizes to four finalists, but the prizes disappeared. And what started as a video game promotion became one of the most
Starting point is 00:25:45 controversial moments in 80s pop culture. I just don't believe they exist. I mean, my reaction, shock and awe. That sword was amazing. It was so beautiful. I'm Jamie Loftus. Join me this spring for The Legend of Sword Quest, a podcast about the fall of Atari and the disappearing Sword Quest prizes. We'll follow the quest for lost treasure across four decades. It's almost like a metaphor for the industry and Atari itself in a way. Listen to The Legend of Sword Quest on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. and we're back and it's time to check in with the republicans they were up to some shit this weekend past few days so you know while while drag shows and libraries are clearly extremely
Starting point is 00:26:42 harmful to children republicans believe every young type could use a dose of backbreaking manual labor, according to. I mean, this seems to be the logic behind a bunch of Republican controlled states currently considering weakening child labor laws. So they responded to the reporting that American factories like Tyson Chicken, you know, like big household name brands have, you know, are loaded with children working in their factories. And their response was like, yeah, no, absolutely. And we need to make it easier for that. We need to. So they passed something literally called the youth hiring act of 2023 which would weaken the state's oversight of child labor laws by eliminating the need for a permit altogether this is happening in ohio iowa arkansas sarah hugaby sanders
Starting point is 00:27:43 proclaimed she will sign the bill while also maintaining that protecting kids is most important. Protecting kids is most important. Definitely sounds like a heartfelt statement that was not generated by chat GPT. But yeah, I mean, two Arkansas meatpacking plants just got in trouble for employing 102 children as young as 13 for overnight shifts and the children's jobs that they are tasked with cleaning up caustic chemicals sanitizing saws and other processing equipment and say yeah like i said six of them were working at a tyson in Green Forest in Arkansas. So it's protecting children is only important to them when it's their children, I would guess.
Starting point is 00:28:33 And the spoken thing is that these are not their children. Their children aren't going to work in a meat processing plant to sanitize the meat saw that is designed to cut through flesh as quickly as possible and deal with caustic chemicals. I know. Every time I go to Jersey Mike's and you see them cutting that meat
Starting point is 00:28:55 fresh, can you imagine a child doing that? No, I wouldn't. I used to work at a grocery store where we had to cut meat and cheese and you know i was in the 18 year old range so i was a teenager at this point but man the shit we used to do to that meat and cheese man like let me tell you i couldn't imagine having a kid like in there we would drop the meat on the floor and still pick it up and slice that shit
Starting point is 00:29:25 for the customers like if somebody pissed us off man like this is nasty i'm i'm sorry i was listen this was 18 years ago all right i'm 36 i've grown but like this also taught me don't fuck with people who are handling your food because whenever somebody would like be rude to us we would go drop their fucking food and dish water and then like we were fine it was terrible we did terrible shit so outside of just like outside of just not wanting your kids to you know be because i i mean like kids having jobs is a thing although they shouldn't but you know it is a thing we can't deny that like sometimes your kids will sweep up like the barbershop or like shit like that right like i had a little cop job before i was 16 yeah in a community setting yeah yeah yeah so it's not like you know we're saying like oh a kid can't learn the value of responsibility and earning money and like all these things
Starting point is 00:30:25 but like outside of just not wanting your kid to deal with shit that an adult should be doing like handling knives and blades or not having proper labor laws on their side like they can't work over fucking night because you're a child i also don't want a kid handling my damn food i don't want a child handling anything that i need to you know have as an adult that needs tender love and care it's kind of wild on both sides to me yeah man the fact that it's it's not you know somebody in a community like working with their family or something to right like learn a trade it's systemic and they're trying to make it easier to do like you let give less oversight make it less carefully deployed i think tells you all you need
Starting point is 00:31:19 to know about like what they have in mind for this do they want kids to work overnight so they don't even have the time to go to these drag shows? I mean, they're just too busy. Yeah, and kind of like a related story. So CPAC just wrapped up. It featured such highlights as Donald Trump claiming that he could solve the Ukraine-Russia war
Starting point is 00:31:39 in just one day. I can do it in just one day. It'll be the best cleaning you've ever seen can fix it ever i alone trump maga but one of the most repulsive speeches which i feel like is probably like they give out a palm door for like most repulsive speech at cpac like the you know that's something that you are competing for in the grand jury prize at the end of cpac like the you know that's something that you are competing for in the grand jury prize at the end of cpac but the daily wire is michael knolls who flat out stated that quote transgenderism must be eradicated from public life entirely so transgenderism isn't a thing it's an offensive
Starting point is 00:32:19 term used by anti-lgbt activists to try and dehumanize trans people like it implies that it's an ideology rather than people and so calling to eradicate transgenderism means literal genocide like if you're calling to eradicate people so it's yeah again and the thing that they put all like stake all this on is that they're worried about children right like that seems to be the talking point that they like to go to and and something that's like being swallowed by like supposed centrist like maddie glacius who like started vox is like he's become very toxic The dude who got me banned from Twitter. Yes. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:33:07 exactly. What, what, what did you say? You said that you hope he, I hope he stubs his toe or, and has knee pain every day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:17 And that got you banned. Yeah. Yeah. Oh my God. I've, I've said so much worse. I think I've asked, I've hoped that people's limbs fall off.
Starting point is 00:33:27 I mean, that's not... Yeah. It was a year ago. Now I'm over it. But it's just always fun to hear his name. Yeah. So he'll be unequivocal on all other subjects that have to do with human rights. But he's willing to adopt these right-wing talking points on to do with human rights but he's willing to adopt like these right-wing talking points on trans rights being human rights and the like he's taken in these
Starting point is 00:33:52 these talking points where it's like well like there's this quote-unquote study that the right has like manufactured that's like kids were identifying as attack helicopters and were given gender affirming health care and like they've created this fiction that you know it's extremely easy to get gender affirming health care which first of all it's not easy to get any health care in the united states and second of all it's like the thing that they're talking about as being like out of control is extremely rare and done extremely carefully. But for whatever reason, this Matt Iglesias and a lot of people who are like these New York Times stalwarts have just like backed down on this particular point. And specifically, they always like to imply that it's like children will say one silly thing and then suddenly they will be given gender-affirming health care. And it's complete bullshit.
Starting point is 00:35:02 And these are lies that people on the right made up. And for some reason, they aren't willing to are lies that people on the right made up and for some reason they aren't willing to see through the lies on the right when it comes to trans rights and it's it's very frustrating especially because when you get down to the core of it it's fucking calling for genocide yeah yeah i also would argue that it's more than they're just not willing to see the truth. It is they are actively perpetrating the lie. You know, they know the truth. They know they don't give a shit about kids. we grew up with teenage mermaids who couldn't talk who like had to marry princess or princesses who didn't have you know autonomy over or you know the right to marry who they fucking wanted and you know a genie had to help you yeah trick a girl into liking you like yeah and i'm not bagging these moves i fucking love aladdin uh i love all this shit but like i but like it's just you know this idea
Starting point is 00:36:12 that adults who have been children before and who probably have children children don't understand that the shit that we consume does not automatically like make us what you fear is is ludicrous it's ludicrous they fucking know they know yeah they know and it's just when it's just it's a control i mean i'm not saying anything you all don't know but it's a control thing and then you get to use the most innocent of the groups on this planet, the children, as the scapegoat for your own hate, your own like, you know, phobias and racism and hate and sexism and trans phobia and everything like that. And it's just it's just funny. It's funny that we sometimes let these people off the hook for not knowing or not wanting to see the truth or blah, blah, blah. They know exactly what they're doing. Like we know exactly what we're doing when we do dumb shit or bad shit. Most of the time, most of the time. So, yeah, it's it's it's always a funny it's always a funny thing. like i'm playing the last of us 2 right now because the last of us is on and it gets to a scene where like the main character kisses a girl and even in the video game and this is in set in 2030 something like
Starting point is 00:37:38 dude comes he was like hey there's kids here and it's's just like, all right, bro, like you don't give a shit about the kids. That just made you feel some type of way. Yeah, always. And that's what it always is. But we default to... It's scary as hell. I feel like we're heading towards a place...
Starting point is 00:37:58 I went to a Christian private school for one year when I was in kindergarten. And I would get in trouble every day for trying to wear pants. They wouldn't let me wear pants. It was that, you know, the uniform was so strict that girls had to wear skirts, boys had to wear pants. And I feel like that is what they're trying to make everything. Every part of society is going to be a uniform, you know, literally uniform as in clothing society. That's what they want. How will you know literally uniform as in clothing society that's what they want how will you know which bathroom to go in if you're not wearing the skirt that the woman on the bathroom sign wears
Starting point is 00:38:31 you know i mean it gets confusing so i get confused i get confused like every time i roll up to a bathroom that has the person in the chair i think i gotta go get a chair to pee. Yeah, and that's fair. We've all been there. I get so confused. I know. Yeah, it's just dumb, bad faith bullshit that on trans rights being human rights like that, it's really making some inroads when it comes to the supposed center and the New York Times, you know, it's really making some inroads when it comes to like the supposed center and
Starting point is 00:39:05 the, the New York times, you know, who did, did good reporting on fucking child labor. But on this, they're just asking questions about this thing that is all, all,
Starting point is 00:39:19 all based on like absolute bullshit. Yeah. Yeah. And this Michael Knowles guy, I don't know if you've seen his face. I mean, I didn't know 100% who he was. I'd seen his face circulate so many times on TikTok. There was a lot of like feminist TikTok videos and he was trying to debate a feminist and every time
Starting point is 00:39:37 it was just him talking over a feminist. But he looks, he just, why do they all look like theater kids who were losers in the theater kid community? Like that's what they all it's it's just such revenge that's seeking out seeping out of their pores with their little smirks. I saw it. Yeah, it has to be. I'm a theater kid myself, but I was cool as shit. but I was cool as shit. I hung out with the athletes.
Starting point is 00:40:07 I got the girls. I was black too. And, you know, I was the only black boy. I got all the white girls. I got all the black. I was cleaning up. And motherfuckers hated me for it. People hated me.
Starting point is 00:40:19 They hated me. And it's funny, though, man. That's such a good analogy because, you know, there is speaking on the theater kids and a lot of this kind of coincides where it's just like you feel like you're old something. And then when somebody comes and and, you know, ruffles up the status quo of the thing that you feel like you're old, then you start feeling some type of way so in this instance like with a lot of these people who promote hate they're feeling like they're owed this country and this respect and this like reverence that they have been told their whole fucking lives that you are gonna you you can get and the fact that like now we're getting to a point in our society where it's like now everybody deserves to be treated equally and you know these people don't just need to be hiding anymore and like and no matter what marginalized group it's messing up their status quo and it's like well wait a minute i'm old all this reverence
Starting point is 00:41:14 and blah blah blah so they feel some type of way and i just say let them be fucking nerds and slowly yeah i'm all for calling them like i i like I'm a nerd. I was a theater kid. I have a Pikachu tattoo. I'm definitely a little nerdy. Fair on that side of life. But I feel like if I ever were to call somebody a nerd to their face, it would only be those people. That's who society should only deem as nerds now.
Starting point is 00:41:38 Yeah. There's that. Yeah. All right. Let's take a quick break and we'll come back and talk about movies. member of 7M Films and Shekinah Church.

Starting point is 00:44:59 And we're back. And Creed III made all the money. $58.7 million in North America. More than $100 million globally. The biggest opening ever for the Creed Rocky franchise or a sports movie. That's crazy. That's surprising to me. There's been some big sports movies.
Starting point is 00:45:19 That's surprising to me. Yeah, Ali. It made more than Ali. Well, I guess also adjusted for inflation, I guess. But when Ali came out, tickets were $6. But that is still surprising to me.
Starting point is 00:45:34 I guess it's different, but Rocky IV was the number one movie for half of the year that it came out. They only released eight movies back then, so you just was the number one movie for like half of the year that it came out but you know i guess they just didn't people they only released like eight movies back then so you just knew you could catch it the next weekend yeah and now movies only stay in theaters for six days or some shit like
Starting point is 00:45:56 it'll be korea to be on streaming next month i'm sure yeah um yeah yeah but even it even beat d2 mighty ducks part two so wow he's doing something right but yeah i don't know the other story that like kind of emerged was that michael b jordan and tessa thompson went to couples therapy in character for the movie tessa thompson said i think the moral of creed 3 is that all people should go to therapy. That's pretty much the moral of Creed 3. Yeah. Presumably people should go to therapy as themselves, but going as someone else
Starting point is 00:46:34 seems to work pretty well too. Yeah, that's very funny. I did see Creed 3, so I'm not, you know, I'm not going to give, I'm going to try my best to not give any spoilers so no spoilers however i'm gonna just give my opinion on the movie so if you don't want to hear anything i will just say that to you right now i i i had never seen any of the creeds before this week
Starting point is 00:46:59 oh just get that out there and like i know i know, I know, like the writers, I know the dude who wrote the first movie, not Ryan Coogler, but his writing partner, Aaron Covington. Shout out Aaron, who also is a writer on Grand Crew, which is out now. So please go watch it. But also, like, I just never got around to watching it. I don't know why. I don't know why. It was a movie I've always wanted to see. But I decided to watch both Cree's this week before I went to go see Cree 3 because I really wanted to see Cree 3 because the trailer looked dope. Jonathan Majors is having himself a year. He looks fantastic in it. I wanted to see the movie.
Starting point is 00:47:36 I watched Cree 1, Cree 2. Fantastic. Truly fantastic fucking movies. Cree 2, I was high as shit when I watched it. It got me emotional. It was a beautiful movie. It's such a good movie. Creed 3 is a good movie.
Starting point is 00:47:51 It's a good movie. It's a good movie. Creed 3 is a good movie. Go watch it. I'm telling you, in the grand scheme of movies, it is a good movie. It is worth the watch it is worth the time to go and enjoy some time at the movie theaters it wasn't your left me left wasn't my
Starting point is 00:48:11 favorite creed wasn't my favorite creed i i don't know if this is a spoiler or not i don't think it is but i thought it was too short that's what i'll say i think the movie is too short the movie is missing key elements that time would have given the movie that the other two movies had and and i don't know what that is and and i've noticed this recently like a lot of movies are starting to like shorten their run not a lot because there's still some three hour fucking movies but the movies are starting to shorten their runtime a little bit and studios are starting to make a conscious effort to all right maybe you don't need to be in the movie theater for two and a half hours and i've always said this if a movie is good i don't give a fuck how long it is a movie
Starting point is 00:48:59 if a movie is good we'll be there and i know not everybody's the same, but if the story is compelling, a great movie can make two and a half hours seem like 90 minutes, right? A bad movie can make two and a half hours feel like a whole fucking day. So, like, that's my take on that. I thought the movie was too short. I thought the movie was missing some things, but the movie is still good.
Starting point is 00:49:20 Michael B. Jordan is great. These niggas look amazing in this movie. Jonathan Majors is just on another planet right now they really crushed it with marketing wise they really they really knew their audience to some degree because man it was a lot of just wet bodies i'm like well well well well i've never seen a boxing movie before, but it was spicy just for 30-second trailers. Yeah. The pitch to studio executives was like, we all know Jonathan Majors exists,
Starting point is 00:49:53 but what if he was wet? Yeah. They were like, what? Like, heads start exploding. Yeah, that guy's just like Scrooge McDuck-ing his life, diving into money right now he's got to have so much money quantum mania this movie back to back i mean i want to see i want to see his bank account yeah i also love craft and yeah uh what's the movie yet on loki he's been loki loki he's on
Starting point is 00:50:20 the netflix movie the harder we fall like he's just been and he's great that's the good thing I love when an actor is having their moment I love when a black actor is having their moment and I love that when on top of their black ass moments they're also fucking fantastic so it's like
Starting point is 00:50:40 they deserve this much they're not just having a moment because they're having a moment they're having a moment because they are fantastic and it's like they deserve this much. They're not just having a moment because they're having a moment. They're having a moment because they are fantastic. And it's like Jonathan May just has it. He is on another planet right now as far as acting goes. And he's doing the damn thing and I love it. He really is. I think
Starting point is 00:50:56 he's on his trajectory to be one of the best actors of our generation. Hands down. He's having his Mahershala Ali moment from like two, three years ago. Right, right. But even that felt like mahershala ali moment from like two three years ago right right but even that felt like mahershala ali was like a little tried to tried to keep it like so there wasn't so much mahershala ali that like we didn't we we weren't left wanting more but jonathan majors is just like suddenly everywhere and everyone's like, yes, feed me.
Starting point is 00:51:25 Feed me, please, more. That's a good point. I don't know. You never hear people say a movie is too short. If a movie is a good hang, sometimes it feels too short. And the only complaint is cranky film critics being like, I have to pick up the kids, wrap it up. I don't know if that represents most film fans.
Starting point is 00:51:47 Like, yeah, if I'm enjoying myself, I'll hang, you know? Oh, yeah. It beats going out to bars. Yeah. I'm such a homebody nowadays, and I'm like, it feels like I'm doing so much more than I am when I go to a movie that's really long. I'm like, yes, I had a full night of fun.
Starting point is 00:52:03 I didn't go out. I went and came home at midnight and i feel so accomplished at a three-hour film i love going to i love i'm a theater head i love going to the movies i love the experience it's amazing amc a-list for life you know for those of you who don't have amcs in your town it's a movie subscription program well basically one month cost the price of one fucking ticket it's amazing you can see like nine movies a month so i'm in the theaters all the damn time yeah and when i say this movie was short it wasn't just like i wish that it was longer so i
Starting point is 00:52:35 could have been enjoying myself more i just felt like there were key parts of the story something that they rushed through that especially with me just seeing both creeds like this week so it's very fresh in my mind how those stories let all their beats breathe and the way that it needed to that that's my that's my complaint on creed three however go watch that shit two black leads michael b jordan's director directorial debut that's a beautiful movie shot well good movie felicia rashad you know give it up for our mom felicia rashad it's a good time y'all it's a good time yeah like they don't even fit the boxing the the fight in at the end they're just like you get the first round and then they're like
Starting point is 00:53:23 and yada yada yada you know who wins anyways i mean that's not true they focus more on the therapy aspect in that one yeah was it really therapy heavy like that's what i'm my main takeaway from this review from tessa thompson is that it's a film a boxing film about therapy first, fighting second. Okay. Yeah, man, I was,
Starting point is 00:53:48 this is where my, I was sitting at a bar one time in 20 when I think the first Creed came on 2015, right? I was sitting somewhere. Yeah. Somewhere. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:56 I was sitting in a bar and I remember so specifically because the guy next to me was like, Oh, Oh, just like couldn't, couldn't keep himself together and the bartender is like are you okay he's like creed's ruining my life and i'm sitting there so invested and then he begins to tell the bartender that he used to date tessa thompson i don't think any of this
Starting point is 00:54:18 is true but he says he used to date tessa thompson and that she left him for the movie Creed. I don't, I don't, that doesn't track. Your, your name is, you have a, you know,
Starting point is 00:54:31 a Supreme shirt on. Your name is Nick. I don't think so. No, no. Same bro. I would have just been like, same bro.
Starting point is 00:54:38 Yeah. I think, yeah, I think he needs to watch this movie and maybe heed Tessa Thompson's words. Go to therapy. Also, I hope it is true. I hope, I hope he did to watch this movie and maybe heed Tessa Thompson's words. Go to therapy. Also, I hope it is true. I hope I hope he did date Tessa Thompson and she left him to go film Creed.
Starting point is 00:54:51 Because what a ludicrous thing to be upset about. Like, yeah, dude, you have to go film a fucking movie. That's where you just have to be like, yeah, good call by you, Tessa Thompson. Yeah. I just if you if you go to a bar and you're just going and you make noises i don't trust anything that's coming out of your mouth after that i think it's all lies yeah it's like what happened to you today please tell me everything okay um but anyway they got they got like big movies coming out every weekend this month, which is the first time I can remember that.
Starting point is 00:55:30 Scream 6 is next week. Shazam 2 the week after. John Wick 4. We just need a 5 and we would have the whole thing. We'd have Dungeons and Dragons on or Among Thieves. Among Thieves, rather. March 31st, which i don't know how that one's gonna do but yeah i'm very so listen i'm very excited why is this dude calling me oh sorry uh i'm very excited for uh i gotta i got some shit to get off my chest hey man do you know if you can get
Starting point is 00:56:06 me back in contact with tessa uh she left me to do creed 3 too man and she never came back she never came back but now i completely forget oh i love that i'm loving you look for the past, from like basically 2009 up until 2020, the blockbuster lane has been filled almost exclusively with MCU. And I'm not knocking that at all. I had a fucking great time last decade watching the book that was the MCU unfold on the movie screen. So this isn't me complaining about that but as someone who's an actor who's an entertainer who does movie uh like film and tv and have loved this medium since i was a child i am loving the re-emergence of the original summer blockbuster like when we were kids when like independence day was a blockbuster and like men
Starting point is 00:57:05 in black basically will smith and then or like even like liar liar being a blockbuster movie kind of like or jaws like i'm loving that like movie stars were their own genre of yeah there's the will smith movie there was jim carrey movie there's a bruce willis movie those were their own genres they were their own genres and I love that Top Gun was a big movie last year I love that Kree 3 is a big movie right now I love that these non-MCU movies are coming back to the theaters
Starting point is 00:57:38 and saying we are putting asses in seats again and it's a pretty dope thing that I hope continues so I'm excited for this this year of movies yeah yeah yeah it does feel like we've been like i've had this sense that like some some movies over the past couple years have done better than they would have otherwise because there was just nothing else like coming out for four weeks
Starting point is 00:58:06 like that i feel like everybody was scared of avatar so they just like didn't release that much after avatar came out but it's it's not like hollywood to leave money on the table but i guess i guess you know film productions are so you know they take so long you have to be green lighting these things so far in advance that i do feel like they've probably recognized that and started ramping up production but we're just we're just now seeing it i i feel like there used to be a box office battle that you actually didn't know who was gonna win back in the day you're like oh shoot these two movies i mean half the time it was two similar movies coming out and you're like well why is this happening two movies about bugs do we need
Starting point is 00:58:43 this many movies about bugs but it was you never knew which one was going to win it was really exciting to watch and now you just go knowing okay everyone's going to see this movie no one's going to see this movie and that sucks i want more movies like that one but no one's seeing yeah yeah i think they should release two movies about planet destroying asteroids every weekend. Hell yeah. In perpetuity. That's my... What were the two bug movies? My brain was coming up with a blank. A Bug's Life?
Starting point is 00:59:13 I mean... Oh, okay, got it. Ants and a Bug's Life. Titular. And ants. And ants. Of course. But I just read something
Starting point is 00:59:21 because I'm so invested in those dual movies where they always have the same premise coming out within a month of each other or something. Yeah. And that one was truly out of spite. I just found out that Bugs Life and Ants,
Starting point is 00:59:34 it was like a director from Disney went to make Ants and was like, well, they're making a movie about bugs. Somebody get me a script. And then they made one. Right. Yeah. It's like also when No Strings Attached and Friends with Jane Fitz came out. It's the exact same fucking movie.
Starting point is 00:59:51 Yeah. They exist in my brain as the same movie. They are the same movie. Yeah. You could splice them together. I feel like you could. Just a lot of no strings in those films. Neither one.
Starting point is 01:00:03 Neither one. Well, Holly, such a pleasure having you on the Daily Zeitgeist. no strings in those films. Neither one. Neither one. Well, Holly, such a pleasure having you on the Daily Zeitgeist. Where can people find you, follow you, all that good stuff? I'm mostly on Instagram.
