I don't know.

Or just it's, or on an airplane. I get like, it's very easy to pass time. Anyway, this isn't about Emily in Paris. This is not, this is about our guest in our third seat. The hilarious,

the talented Fizza Dosani. Hey guys, thank you. Oh, thank you for having me. What's up? It's great to have you back. Yeah, I don't have a little rap after my name, but I would like to make a rap reference.

And you say you guys can call me Panani Dasani if you'd like. Panani Dasani. I love it. Is that your MC name? No, I mean, I don't know. It's just like it's from the song WAP. I hope I'm pronouncing that correctly. Yes, yes, yes. Or WAP. Yeah, depending on what part of the nation you're in.

I'm a WAP person. I can't, I don't do, I don't say WAP. But then also I grew up in Florida and I said Raymond Noodles for like two decades. Right, right, right. Hell yeah. I love Raymond. Raymond, Florida. Everybody loves Raymond.

Everybody loves Raymond Noodles. Everybody loves Top Raymond. Yeah, yeah. it's raymond men i don't know if that's a who's got that who's got that mashup shirt no one needs how uh what's the vibes back in florida biden country what we what we looking at i mean there's a whole lot of proud trumpers in florida but it's i 50 50. So it's I mean, it truly is a swing state. But the Republicans are older and much more committed to investing in the current system and voting. people who are MAGA in Florida. Yeah. We are way too invested in white supremacy to get off this

thing now. You know, these old people are upside down in their investment portfolio when it comes to racism. Dude, have you noticed that like when people are super white, like they flip, when they say white

they flip the H and the W and they say white. Have you noticed that? What's up with that? Why do you always talk about the fact that I'm white? Oh, I didn't even see. I forgot that you were, but now you reminded me. I know. Yeah, Jack, look at you.

You're passing, man. I'm quiet. Yeah, that's that 50-50 thing with florida and pennsylvania that's what we're here in 50 50 and it makes me horrified um yeah i wish saying it like that made it less serious because that helped a little bit when you said horrified like that like you were right like it was a fun yeah yeah now it's just like yeah i just there's also that uh story too or like the postal service is like pulling the postal cops off the

street a week before the election so you know we ain't vote in nowhere uh please just go in person if you can is that is that where we're at now? Because I've got my at-home ballot right next to me. Yeah, just ready. I should say at-home ballots. Obviously, I'm involved in some heavy voter fraud. I've been Xeroxing. Dude, I've got like 70 Jacko. I've got about 70 ballots I'm dropping off.

But did they ever get to the box? I just dropped mine in the mail. Yeah. Oh, did you? Nice. In the mail or Dropbox? What are we looking at? In my building's outgoing box. Oh, did you? Nice. In the mail or Dropbox? What are we looking at? In my building's outgoing box.

Oh, there you go. Okay. There you go. Are you registered in Florida? No, I've been in California too long, so I'm registered here. But the rest of my family is, so they're... All right. Do you think they can Xerox us some ballots?

Get them over here. We'll get them right back. No, but hit me up in my DMs. Yeah, for sure. And these are all jokes for everyone who was taking this joke show too seriously. Jokey jokes. Well, speaking of joking jokes. We got a Xerox at least 70 and things off.

Oh, by the way, speaking of white, did you see the president's hands in that 60 Minutes interview when he drank the water and his hands? No. Oh, man. Chalky white? Chalky white. Like dead guy white. I mean, he sounded, the audio clip I heard of him spiking the interview, I was like, you're running yourself ragged, old man. We've got to get enough time for the vice president

getting the fuck out of here very unfair very unfair to ask these say these sentences with the inflection at the end like they're questions this dude's like a winter chicken right like he's like 70 he's like a covid survivor he's like in his mid 70s

yeah and it's just also it's just like how you know there is deterioration of the brain like in his mid-70s. Yeah. And it's just also, it's just like how, you know, there is deterioration of the brain. Yeah. You know, like, I mean, it's kind of crazy. I don't know. Maybe someone should go through a test, a cognitive test prior to presidency.

I've never heard winter chicken before. That's awesome. And very appropriate because a dead chicken does have the share the complexion of him underneath those layers. His brain is doing that equivalent of like what Abe Lincoln looked like before and after the Civil War. That's like his brain. Right. Right. All right.

Well, Fizza, we like to start off by asking our guest, what is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are? Okay, so a Google search was sex for science. Sex for science. Yeah, you know, okay, so like, you can have sex for research. Oh, wow. Right. Yeah, and I was just curious. And I mean, I think I was writing a joke and like it started out another search, like, things that are hard to do while you're horny, and then I just, you know, went down a hole, and I was like, oh, you can have sex.

That's like, that's kind of hot. Yeah. Wait, so what are the normal, like, sex for science things? Like, you fill out a questionnaire, or like, hooking you up to some, brainwave readers and shit and then like you know popping them off i don't know it's just the idea that someone's watching yeah with a with a clipboard and yeah taking diligent notes that's actually a really great role role play idea oh You need to get a third person involved. Or I guess not. You could just be going on your own. My fantasy is to be a scientist cuck.

I watch my wife get banged, but I have a clipboard, and I'm like, hmm, hmm, okay, hmm. And I'm just like peeing myself in the corner. The other person's like, this is kind of weird. I'm like, please keep going. The experiment is not over. the other person's like this is kind of weird i'm like please keep going the experiment it's not over uh yeah that's the more dignified way to he's watching me but it's for biology wow um yeah i do wonder like because kinsey was real you know had a lot of studies going had his lab assistants in there uh all sorts of

wild shit what like is there a modern day kenzie who's who's studying the sexual spectrum and all that good stuff you know i think it's as deep as i wanted in the research um yeah so you know just just just a little bit something you were searching. Just the tip of the iceberg. I'd be interested to know. As I find out more, I can keep you posted. If anyone knows about it, let us know. What do you do?

Do you get a free mattress? I'm also interested. Can you eat off of fucking for science? For fucking for research? Yeah. Do you have to not fucking for science, for fucking for research? Right. Yeah. And then is it also like, do you have to be- You have to not eat for eight hours.

Yeah, and is it like, do you have to be a couple, like a specific physiological traits? Can you just be like a traveling couple that has sex for research? You just hop from lab to lab. Right. This is all a very interesting film that I would watch. In Joe Biden's America, you'll be able to make a living off of this scientists yeah those scientists he's gonna listen to they're gonna pay people to have six yeah

i look forward to this bright future yeah yeah right i'm like cool what is uh physical what's something you think is underrated? Okay, so because of quarantine, I've been watching a lot of Netflix. And they put a lot of UPN series on. And I started watching Girlfriends for the first time in my life. And it's so underrated. It's the UPN sitcom. It's generalizing, but it's like, you know, like a black sex in the city. But like, it's so well written, so well structured.

The characters are, you know, I feel like it's a good, watching that, I feel like I'm able to interact in a social, in like an emotionally unavailable way. So like I get my social interaction, but I don't have to... These are my friends! Oh, right. So you have parasocial relationships with Tracee Ellis Ross's character on there. You're like... Yes! Her character...

Her character's so intense. But the whole cast is stellar. They don't miss a beat. Some of the jokes didn't date well because people... Culturally, the society was so homophobic so like like being gay was just like that just that could be the butt of a joke so like that didn't carry well but it was still so well written and like we call those standard definition jokes

yeah they land so much harder when it's just a little bit blurry yeah yeah you're like you're like but you know what it's in standard def so it it it does it's not as first three seasons like had the blocks on the side the black yeah right because when did it come out like 99 or 2000 or something i felt like 2000 to 2008 oh eight seasons thank you wow yeah yeah good thing we have my girlfriend's historian yes yes that's uh my official has nothing to do with google so i would love to see a reunion yeah i mean tracy ellis ross so she's gone on to big things have the other actresses uh gone on to i'm not sure i recognize i I don't know that they have.

The thing is, they're so freaking talented. The guy, I think his name's Reggie Hayes. He was fifth on the call sheet. He was the dude, so it was the four women. He was fifth on the call sheet. With that industry talk, yep. He played William Dent.

I heard that he experienced after the the show homelessness and like congenital heart disease. So like he and like weight gain. So that's just he's such a beloved character. That's like so sad to hear that. But also the show disappeared for like 10 years and just came back. So it's like, yeah, who knows what happened in those 10 years and just came back so it's like yeah who knows what happened in those 10 years like acting is such a risky job in terms of like making a steady income like how right how yeah yeah if anybody has it figured out uh let us know

yeah um what is something you think is overrated uh this might be controversial but i'm gonna say it um i love carbonated water but i hate lightly flavored carbonated water it's like sort of it's art if it's artificially flavored and it's like an artificial aftertaste like when i drink carbonated water i just want the bubbly shit i just just want the bubbles. So, like, all this extra stuff, lime, lemon, unless it's a real lime. Oh, so are you a spin drift type person? Because spin drift,

I know they hit you with the, like, the real fruit juices. Isn't that their whole thing? I haven't had it, so I will have to try it now. I'm on the, like, I like carbonated water for sure. Like, I'm always a big fan of plain carbonated water. But there's something, like, when the flavor, there are certain flavored ones that are just basically missing the high fructose corn syrup that's making it a soda, technically. And sometimes I like to drink those because I feel like, oh, man, I'm drinking a soda-ish.

You do say that out loud as you're drinking it, I've noticed. Oh, I'll call you, Jack. You know, I'll be like, hey, Jack, man, I'm drinking a soda ish uh you do say that out loud as you're doing it i've noticed oh i'll call you jack you know i'll be like hey jack man i'm drinking a soda and you're like it's one in the morning man i'm like my bad man it's just no sugar just wiling out over here yep um and then i start drinking a bunch of uh like gum syrup that i steal from starbucks in a different cup yeah so i i think that's super true though, that like the essence is like the waters that are essenced with like the lemon lime, like that can go so badly. And like I think does 95 percent of the time. Like it just tastes like air freshener.

Yeah. It's just sort of this hint of something that an aftertaste, but like sort of it tastes like something that would flavor medicine. Like it's not supposed to, you know, I don't know. Yeah, yeah. I like plain. I'm like Perrier, like the carbonated arrowhead water. I don't care. Just need some plain carbonated water.

Crystal geyser. I have a pack of that behind the shelf. Oh, you got the team leader pack right there of the crystal guy I feel like pomplemousse is the one that I the LaCroix pomplemousse and I think that is 90%

because I like saying pomplemousse and that's it sometimes that's enough I think it might be um but again just a just a whisper of grapefruit yeah but see when you do it in french it's so much it's compelling right yeah but i like to say it is pomple moose like that pomple moose. I even get some pompomousse, man. Y'all got that pompomousse? Oh, fuck yes. Oui, oui.

Where's that Jack in Paris? We need that show. That's right. From Wheeling, West Virginia to Paris, France. I feel like we should bring up Emily in Paris. No, I mean, I don't know. You guys brought it up earlier. I don't know.

Before we started recording. So, like, I haven't seen it. I haven't seen it yet. But, I mean, is it worth it up earlier. I don't know before we started recording. So like, I haven't seen it. I haven't seen it yet, but I mean, is it worth it? Yeah. I'm if, if you're watching a lot of Netflix,

you'll be surprised how much more like you'll be like, yep. Okay. Oh, I watched seven episodes, huh? Wow. And it's like 3am.

Cool. And this is from dude. So I really, that's interesting. Oh yeah. You know, and I, now that I'm so much more in touch with the fashion, I was like, I was like, OK, I like this little Chanel piece.

That's OK. I'm like, OK, I'm feeling the cropped hood by air coach's jacket with the hood. Yeah. And the beanie and the hoop ear very street. I like that's going from episode to episode. Yeah. You know, I'm just embracing the inner fashionista. Yeah.

The styling is dope. The, you know know sites are dope uh you know the characterization the writing and the acting is all passable yeah i think homegirl is trying to be like an analog for samantha like the one uh chinese american uh like homegirl that she has out there she's doing like kind of a samantha vibe that i'm like okay i don't know if that's really in your wheelhouse as an actor but uh the i think the reason i'm really liking it too is because i don't care about clothes anymore because like there's no i've not been to a formal event or anything like that where it's merely just like i say preventing myself from being nude in public that to see a show where it's like all about like clothes and like going places and

like how you look and shit i'm like whoa look at that it's like an action movie there's a there's a question that has entered the zeitgeist i think i think it's vulture what one of the leading cultural criticism outlets is asking the question how old is emily from in Paris? How old is she supposed to be? And I don't know. That was an open question that I just had as a blank spot in my mind. I'm assuming mid to late 20s, but there's a lot of things that would suggest otherwise. Her career seems like...

Anna Hosni saying she is 30. She is Trey O. Oh, okay. Yeah. Okay, yeah like... Anna Hosni saying she is 30. She is Trey O. Oh, okay. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. But even then, it's hard. I feel like that's what's great about the characters.

It's so malleable. You know, you can project any age onto her. Right. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. She's the Keanu Reeves of Trash Sex of the Darren Star Universe. I mean, I'm excited to hear that there's a Samantha character because Samantha that character is a personal

hero so yeah it's just so funny yeah it's like tough too because it's almost like you know Kim Cattrall kind of has that locked up a little bit and when you have someone who's like obviously responsible for the creation of that character you can see it seeping out into other ones you're kind of like oh no

honey this is supposed to be Samantha. Yeah, it's almost like you don't want to desecrate the memory of it. Yeah, I mean, who cares? Nothing's sacred anymore. It's 2020, you know, but I mean, we get over a bad remix. We get over it. Yeah.

He has the funkiest tasting spunk is the obligatory. I had to say that because on a hose mic is not on but that anytime samantha comes up she's probably saying it oh she's for sure yeah i'm just channeling her um that and then uh i cannot not mention uh Cannot not mention. She's mouthing it now. On his doing it with her mic up.

I got one. I got one. Dirty martini. Dirty bastard. Ooh. Dirty. Ow. Ow. When she throws the martini on Richard's face.

Damn. Oh, yeah. The rich dude she was with for a while. Yeah. Walked in eating another girl out and he broke her heart that's a harsh thing to say that's a rough one to come in on all right real quick let's talk about the senate uh it seems like lindsey graham did what he thought the senate was gonna do and he's uh set a date for the confirmation vote for amy coney barrett yep just pushed through there

the democrats thursday they boycotted the vote to advance it out of committee into like the the larger senate and uh normally you know uh there would need to be at least two dems uh there for the vote to quote unquote count but that was these are i i use these terms very loosely because it all used to matter if people like respected things like quorum and that shit is just gone. So it doesn't fucking matter. They're like, okay,

then don't be here. And just the Democrats just put up pictures instead of people who stood to lose their healthcare. When Amy Coney Barrett eventually, maybe probably here's a court case about the ACA and, you know, does away with it. So, yeah, it's I mean, you know, it was kind of a wrap for a minute. But yeah, now there will be a vote next week and a pack the fucking court. Y'all is all I got to say is the pretty much the only way out of this one.

Yeah, I'm hearing other strategies for getting around this, like term limits and shit, but I don't know, man. We just need to pack that shit. I mean, you look again. Why are they so goddamn effective? The Republicans are just so goddamn persistent. Because they don't give a fuck.

Yeah, they don't care. They're no scruples. They're not burdened by conscience, I guess. Yeah. Or the appearance of it. That's the difference. Because the Democrats also do shit, too. It's just that they so much need it to look like it's all happening above board when it's happening. Wolves in wolves in sheep's clothing.

Yeah. Very much. Yeah. Wolves and wolves that don't know how to really wolf it up. Just bad at being wolves. Wolf it up, bro. Come on, bro. Come on, bro. Come on, Teen Wolf.

Get in there. All right. Let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. I've been thinking about you. I want you back in my life. It's too late for that. I have a thinking about you. I want you back in my life. It's too late for that. I have a proposal for you. Come up here and document my project.

All you need to do is record everything like you always do. One session. 24 hours. BPM 110. 120. She's terrified. Should we wake her up? Absolutely not.

What was that? You didn't figure it out? I think I need to hear you say it. That was live audio of a woman's nightmare. This machine is approved and everything? You're allowed to be doing this? We passed the review board a year ago. We're not hurting people.

Hi, I'm Akilah Hughes, and I'm so excited about my new podcast, Rebel Spirit, where I head back to my hometown in Kentucky and try to convince my high school to change their racist mascot, the Rebels, into something everyone in the South loves, the biscuits. I was a lady rebel. Like, what does that even mean?

The Boone County Rebels will stay the Boone County Rebels with the image of the biscuits. It's right here in black and white in the prints of a lion. An individual that came to the school saying that God sent him to talk to me about the mascot switch. As a leader, you choose hills that you want to die on. Why would we want to be the losing team? I'd just take all the other stuff out of it. On segregation academies, when civil rights said that we need to integrate public schools, these charter schools were exempt from that.

Bigger than a flag or mascot. You have to be ready for serious backlash. Listen to Rebel Spirit on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Do you ever wonder where your favorite foods come from? Like what's the history behind bacon-wrapped hot dogs? Hi, I'm Eva Longoria. Hi, I'm Maite Gomez-Rejon.

Our podcast, Hungry for History, is back. Season two. Season two. Are we recording? Are we good? Oh, we push record, right? And this season, we're taking an even bigger bite out of the most delicious food and its history. Saying that the most popular cocktail is the margarita, followed by the mojito from Cuba,

and the piña colada from Puerto Rico. So all of these... We have, we think, Latin culture. There's a mention of blood sausage in Homer's Odyssey that dates back to the 9th century B.C. B.C.? I didn't realize how old the hot dog was. Listen to Hungry for History

as part of the My Cultura podcast network, available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It was December 2019 when the story blew up. In Green Bay, Wisconsin, former Packers star Kabir Bajabiamila

caught up in a bizarre situation. KGB explaining what he believes led to the arrest of his friends at a children's Christmas play. A family man, former NFL player, devout Christian, now cut off from his family and connected to a strange arrest. I am going to share my journey of how I went from Christianity to now a Hebrew Israelite. I got swept up in Kabir's journey, but this was only the beginning. In a story about faith and football, the search for meaning away from the gridiron and the consequences for everyone involved. You mix homesteading with guns and church and a little bit of the spice of conspiracy theories that we liked. Voila!

You got straight away. I felt like I was living in North Korea, but worse, if that's possible. Listen to Spiraled on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. And before we time travel into the future uh i want to talk about a story uh that probably will not be covered in the debate even though it feels like it should be um i'm

talking about the just horrifying run of news uh about ice and uh how they're treating detainees uh just in in many instances across uh the country uh there is a couple days ago there's a story that broke uh that they were torturing african detainees uh to get them to sign their deportation papers. Uh, that's, so they are basically spraying, um, Cameroonian asylum seekers, uh, with mace. Um,

just putting, yes, refugees. Exactly. People who are trying to flee a country where if they go back there, they, they fear that they're going to be killed. So ICE is like, well, that's tough to compete with, but we're going to try.

So they are threatening them, choking them, beating them, pepper spraying them, and threatening them with more violence to make them sign. Several were put in handcuffs by ICE officers, and their fingerprints were taken forcibly in place of a signature. So that's something that just broke. ICE is a terrorist group. Yeah. No, ICE is, it seems so clear cut and like the sort of thing you would just be able to bring up. I'm not sure why this isn't like one of the main talking points of the biden

campaign um they're yeah it's tough i mean like it's i think the reason is because like on some level they know they would be guilty of some level of this too yeah like because joe biden is not here to completely overhaul our immigration system that's right and like actually make it humane and actually be like hey do are you seeking fucking asylum like are you fleeing for your life do you need safety welcome here uh come come on in all he's doing is like i'm gonna make it less fucked up right it seems to be the only thing like he's talking very narrowly and i think that's fucked up right it seems to be the only thing like he's talking very narrowly and i think that's what people i think that's you know that's what's

disheartening is that you you can tell yeah biden will really hit the things on the issues that he's really differentiating himself on from the president which is like i'll listen to fucking science at least and maybe some taxes will go up for rich people, don't talk to me about police reform or refunding our communities and defunding police. That's not going to happen. So I'm not going to talk about that. And I think anyone who thinks that is,

you should listen to what's being said or, more importantly, what is not being said. Unfortunately, the DNC, I think, would have, you know, they wanted Biden over over or they wanted Trump over Bernie because Bernie would have, you know, actually affected change if he, you know. Yeah. Bernie was not an option. That's yeah. I feel salty about that because it's like, OK, well, this is a government that doesn't really. I guess, you know, there's no humanity. It's just, you know, it's it's it's still law and order.

It's like conservative and super, super conservative. And yeah, exactly. Those are our options. Yeah, there's no. What's heartbreaking, too, is that like even people, lawyers for these detainees, these asylum seekers are, you know, say it's background. Yeah, I mean, they say they are ramping this behavior up because they think that Trump might lose and there will be a change over and they feel like they won't be able to get away with as much of it if that's so wild that they're like oh we won't be able to do this evil shit so let's just do as much of it as we can right that's that feels like a way that every department could

be like hey like it they're worried I'm going to win and they won't be able to do the evil shit like that so obviously there is a differentiation there. There's also stories of forced sterilization in Georgia. The Department of Homeland Security Inspector General received a formal complaint alleging that unnecessary hysterectomies were being performed on immigrants in custody at Immigration and Custom Enforcement Irwin County Det detention center in Georgia.

And again, this is a, this is something with a long, long history in the United States. You know, people aren't even aware of. Yeah. Yeah.

Eugenics was, you know, the Nazis got a lot of their eugenics thinking from America and America was on board with that shit until it was not. And then, of course, there's a genocide, too. You know what I mean? Like, this is all just, you know, just taking someone's ability to procreate away from them forcibly. It's you know, this is what's funny, too, of all these people who are so on QAnon and shit, who are like, think of the fucking children. I'm like, look at these.

There are children who are will who knows if they are going to be reunited at this point. Yeah. With their families that have been separated. And there was no plan for them to be reunited from the beginning. The point, the intention was toour deter these people with how cruel the united states could be that was the policy was to be like you'll be so fucked up that nobody wants even try and fucking come here if you it's like being on like a like those scenes where someone's like trying to get onto a building or something and like they're hanging and somebody just comes

and starts like stomping on your fucking fingers with like your hand like with your feet get the fuck off this ladder bro too many that's what our policy is like it's literally quite almost literally that just using violence to deter you yeah it's i feel like they're laundering their angst over these inhumane behaviors and their inhumane beliefs of like how to treat people like in the past we've laundered the reality of that through uh like horror movies like that we'll have a horror movie that's set on a native american like burial ground or you know we'll have like westerns where that like reaffirms some sense of you know that changed the story so so that Americans are the good guys. I feel like QAnon is similarly like they're coming up with theories that talk

about the same sort of just horrifying behavior, but they're like making it be done by the Democrats to like white children instead so that they, yeah. QAnon is such a ploy i mean it's just an amalgamation of all the convenient conspiracy theories that they can use to push their conservative agenda whatever it is yeah and as miles that was the third story i was referring to was the fact that uh 545 of the children who were separated from their parents uh those children's parents uh have still not been located three years after they were separated

um yeah because they were deported and yeah just no no no desire to uh keep keep them together like no desire to reunite them in any way or thought given to that before they that wasn't part of the protocol separate them and then the onus is on the lawyers of the families to figure it out after that it's more just like

well you shouldn't have come here you know what this is it's a fucking wood chipper for human beings I think that i think that sound you just made is i think the sound you just made was 2020 in a in a syllable yeah we don't even have a word for it just onomatopoeia yeah right i would copyright that actually you might yeah i'm gonna pull the audio from this that's the new did i do that for 2020 is just um there's yeah no more air horns at clubs but this is crazy because we have government sanctioned torture and coercion of refugees um involuntary

sterilization and freaking kidnapping and torture of what this is all government sanction what yeah yeah what the fuck you know i'm done out in the open and then q anon makes up a story where it's being done, like Wayfair is doing it, naming furniture after children. Yeah, it's strange times. Speaking of strange times, we are going to time travel into the future now to after the debate that you all watched last night to tell you what our reaction to that is,

cue the time travel sound effect. Throw the banana peel into Mr. Fusion. And here we are in the future. It is us, Jack and Miles. Fizza has taken the evening off. Yeah. It is. After the debate debate we just took it in it's it's uh earth shattering god it was it was battle of the geriatrics one more time they were dude i

i'm pretty sure donald trump when he's debating he doesn't realize he is the president he he like modulates between being the president and then also being an outsider running to be president for the first time it was so weird then yeah it's like whoa what what the way he can acknowledge someone could have presidential power in one breath and then immediately sort of deny that that would hold him accountable in another was truly disastrous and fucking tragic. I mean, so the the overall vibes from this debate were he you could like visibly see him trying not to interrupt so like somebody clearly got to him with a shock collar during debate prep and was like yo every time you did you interrupt the moderator we're giving you a little shock right and i think the the muted microphones definitely helped the moderator did a good job i again i I don't think that Chris Wallace necessarily did a bad job

in the sense that I don't think anybody could have gotten a hold of that first one, but she definitely had it handled. Yeah, Kristen Wilker did great. Yeah, she did great. Trump was on one as usual. He was sniffling a little bit. He has to, man. He's got to perform, baby. He's got to get that shit. He was sniffling a little bit. He was. He's got to perform, baby.

Get that shit. He's freestyling, man. Yeah. He's out there doing the jazz. Yeah. He had the he had these moments where it seemed like he was playing a character who was like trying to set Joe Biden up. Like he would be like, I don't know, Joe. What about the this is the laptop from

hell joe it was like he was doing an impression of donald trump uh trying to it was it was interesting um i i just don't it again it's it's one of those debates where you you'd hope there would be some kind of substance to it, but there isn't. It all boils down to two old guys just being like, well, what about you? Well, what about me? What about you?

He's the one. Here we go. Russia again. Here we go with the Russia stuff. But it's true. What about you? It was like, it was like okay dude oh we get it just get the fuck just time travel to like 2021 or whatever the fuck this is gonna be i would say um biden is at his worst worst when he is trying to use sarcasm he needs to never do that again

yeah oh god by the way by the way okay by the way all the teachers out there not all of you are gonna die come on he's at that point i was like yo what the fuck was that he's not the timing isn't his thing you know what i mean no the timing wasn't he had a sarcasm thing with uh hitler he had a sarcasm thing with a bunch of different things. The one time he actually used sarcasm correctly by calling Trump Abraham Lincoln over there. Trump was like, wait, why did you just call me Abraham Lincoln? I never said I was him. Did you just call me Abraham Lincoln? He thinks I'm Abraham Lincoln. Did you hear that? Uh-oh, is a ghost visiting you, Joe? Did you hear that, guys? He thinks a ghost visiting you joe did you hear that guy he thinks i'm abraham lincoln i'm a spooky ghost he can't even he doesn't know what's going on

but uh yeah uh he really had to clarify that one for some you just not since you called yourself. Abraham Lincoln. Since. Okay. But I mean, what I was saying is you said you, but you, okay, got it. So you just, yeah, just, just two old men talking past each other, screaming at a salad bar. I thought Biden started out coherently and then kind of got a little choppy towards the end um they both did you know yeah it's it was late you know it's bedtime he had some good lines uh biden americans don't panic he panicked i thought that was pretty good yeah um and then

there was just a lot of the the same old uh like the barisma stuff trump got into again just fell so flat it he's really like he's not i don't know i felt like he was having a really hard time finding a way to have his like so quote unquote attacks land as attacks versus him just saying like the same six things over and over again. Right. I think Trump is generally incapable of like taking a new direction. And that extends to like he just has the same talking points that he makes every night. Like when he had another shot to like take a new path on the virus virus response, he can't do that. on the virus virus response he can't do that um but he he also like can't i think i think the success against hillary clinton like he thinks that just like he can replicate that by yeah accusing biden of being corrupt but it's like no that was so hillary clinton has been called corrupt since whitewater like that was that'swater. The Republicans had been working on her for decades by the time you got to her so that when you accused her of being corrupt and there were these vague email things, that was enough. That was all people needed. It was just a little push. But with Biden, it's not who people think he is.

And he doesn't come off that way. You don't get the sense that he's anything other than corny and very earnest when he's up there. He just does not come off as old slick Willie. He seems like he's wearing his heart on his sleeve and believes the thing he's saying. He's just a little bit befuddled and old yeah i just like you were saying kind of how this the tactics aren't working it really is like the sophomore album where he's like he's doing it again no but it's like yo it just doesn't hit like whoa yeah it's all kinds of weird now because you're not in the same position anymore. This same perspective actually just rings very hollow.

But I think that's really, I guess, the logical endpoint when you have someone like Trump who is so one-dimensional in how he thinks and how he responds and behaves that when you put him in the exact, I guess, similar environment, which is a presidential election, it's just like, okay, I have one song that I play and here we go. So it's, it's, yeah, I, I just really found myself being more and more tuned out where I would just keep sighing whenever there was a moment where he would just rely on these tired attacks of like, well, you know, folks, he wants to give money to all the wrong people.

These people come in here and they're going to drain up your tax money. Like just these old attacks that these children were brought here by coyotes that were somehow trying to humanize and then dehumanize at the same time. And I know there had to have been moments like for, I'm, you know, I'll always pretend there are conservatives who will, you know, look at Trump and be like,

oh, this guy stinks who haven't fully come around to it unless they're not racist. But like, we're there. We're just objectively. It was like, oh man,

this guy's getting like this, this sucks as an answer answer like this is even good this objective like i could do better than this you're like oh come on we go oh we're getting killed out there yeah i do wonder yeah somebody was on twitter being like man the magic really is gone when they announced that he was inviting that guy to the debate like he did with bill clinton's victims at the final debate in the last one he like invited what was the guy's name was like tony bababooey i think uh i saw somebody refer to him as uh i don't i don't know exactly what but trump kept being like i don't need babalinsky bobolinsky baby uh he is his name is so silly that

trump couldn't refer to him by name because if he was like and what about tony bobolinsky people would have been like what the fuck is mr bobolinsky but he kept like referring to him broadly uh generally been like this this guy just had a had a press conference it was wild people a lot of people are calling it the laptop from hell i loved when he tried to make that happen it's a lot of people a lot of it's yeah it's just like he's trying to talk shit at a convalescent home to the other yes i don't know if you heard joe's got i don't know if you guys joe's got i don't know if you guys heard everybody's been talking about it it's the laptop from hell yeah it's really not an effective way to to get anything across and yeah the but the bar is so low now that you just

see like how just relative to trump how like you just hear biden say something and him just being like i don't know like maybe we'll stop fracking and you're like oh wow thank god he's a he's a revolutionary but you're just like wait hold the fuck up yeah i get that now at the same time there's still this thing where it's like you gotta you also have to you have these talking points that are very specifically pointed at a very specific demographic you need to support you at the polls on november 3rd if they haven't voted already so uh yeah it's exhausting i can't imagine i can't imagine that people are walking away from that debate and being like yes i now my the scent is off trump with regards to russian money and now it's on Joe Biden.

Because it's just, again, it's all about branding. You have to use the person's weight against them. You have to use the fact that people think Hillary Clinton is not genuine and corrupt against her. And you can't just say the thing that's true about you, that everyone knows is true about you and be like yeah no it was him he was that was the one i'm the i'm the guy who uh everybody uh black people love people love me they love me i love them we love each other but not like that's mainly my thing that's my thing just getting with these brothers you know the one thing that i did think he was

smart on was he tried to get a thing started where joe biden wants small windows and joe biden has tiny little eyes so i think maybe there could be some resonance there because he's got little coin slots for eyes but yeah other than that i don't i don't know I don't know if this one's going to take off in the right direction. He needs one, like you say, that people will believe. Where it's like, I don't know if you know, Joe Biden, it was investing in an app where you hook up with people to kiss them. And it could be underage girls, it could be kids, babies, goats, rats, cheetahs, birds, you don't know. But it's all about kissing, and it's got him in a lot of trouble a lot of people got in trouble on that app like someone might be like uh huh really i'd

google that i'd google that for some reason right or i could see like yeah him being just like caught in a scam investment because he's an old guy would maybe work where he was yeah poisonous he invested in his son his son hunter's app uh yeah his son hunter he he's been investing in his band uh for the whole time it's really awful i mean he you should see what he paid in uh to skrillex for a track it wasn't even skrillex that actually produced a terrible waste of money and then he was invested in this fire something fire fest thing as well so i'd look into that joe biden 2020 come on yeah come on come on what's wrong with these guys come on i mean come on what the hell just shows you this guy doesn't know what he's talking about that's why yeah i just got so and you wish joe biden was sharp enough to actually just

just rip donald trump's head off because i'm like get me in there i'd be like donald trump uh what's the gdp this year donald trump uh you're the i would be like donald trump are you the president i would probably start every question off like that because he would he would not actually be able to realize i'm like getting a pattern going i'm like are you the president yes and i'm like okay who is our largest trade partner in the southern hemisphere yeah okay donald trump are you the president you know it baby okay so uh what's your what's your health care plan exactly guys he hasn't said anything am i the only i would be like this am i the only person up here watch this donald trump are

you the president what's your health care plan right crickets the motherfucker very specifically the putin thing he didn't bring up helsinki like that that's the one time we saw trump on stage with putin where he was like that resonated with people we saw it hit his approval rating like that what how when he's being like you're the putin guy you you got the money from putin like how is he not like dude we saw you on stage what are you talking about like but it's just yeah you really it is frustrating that there were i think pretty much every candidate that we saw uh during the debates like biden was among the worst uh at debates uh during the primary i mean he had holy remember the put your babies in front of the record player like in lieu of parenting like monologue he did and go to joe three three i mean i but to be

to be honest like we're kind of uh we should be relieved i guess that this is all over and he didn't say shit like that i mean he did kind of get into it i feel like in one of the last i think it was at the town hall where he was veering into that whole like words per hour thing of like what you need to hear. And I was like, the town hall was rough, but it was so boring. I think everybody tuned out by the, yeah.

Well, cause at this point who's, who's being swayed. It's like now we're truly just watching like fail videos of old guys. But like, imagine what Elizabeth Warren would have done. Imagine what AOC would have done to that motherfucker. Pete Buttigieg.

Ilhan Omar. I'm serious. Anybody. Fucking Beto O'Rourke would have done a fucking aerial heel flip. Beto was the one that I was holding like, he probably would have fucked it up too. He probably would have tried to do something. He would have been like, yo, fuck you, bro. And people would be like oh shit yeah no that's the yeah beto uh and biden uniquely bad at this but i mean yeah he got out i think i feel like mostly unscathed or at least trump didn't really

have i don't know trump is uniquely bad at this too because he only has one mode he only has like one track that his mind goes on and it doesn't work as a as a defending champ it doesn't work when you just did four years and didn't do any of the shit that you said you were gonna do it's i'm sure fox news is saying the opposite but um i thought like he's delivered in particular i feel like he when he was talking about the hunter biden stuff it was only going to resonate like anybody who doesn't watch fox news would have been totally lost at that at that time right yeah and i mean the the biggest headline on Fox News right now is Trump-Biden clash over Hunter-Biden business questions at final.

Like, no. Really? Yeah. That's what people are coming away with. Three and a half million. Three and a half million. If you're playing that drinking game, you would have been trashed in that moment. But it's, I don't know the the final statement was also something to

hold as well because when president trump started oh what was that whoa is that me sorry no no that's fox news like just skull fucking me with a browser ad fuck the other thing was like the final question where they were sort of say give us your inaugural address how you're talking to the people that didn't vote for you and trump just it's like when again this is the part where you see when you're not very nimble minded and you're like freestyle rapping like trump is yeah and his first line his first line, his first bar ends with the word purple. And he's like, oh, fuck. Like, it's just, it all, he was skating and sliding after that. It was just a downer.

Purple, purple. To all the people that voted against me, purple. You know what it is. It's fucking, I don't care if you're Asian. Fucking brown mustard. It was a, yeah. Yeah. He didn't seem to stay on point, like on the subject of that one. He just started criticizing Obama and Biden.

It was 2016 again, 2014. What are you going do it's just an old man just fucking taking whiffs in the wind can't connect on anything Nancy Pelosi she was dancing in the streets in Chinatown what in the movie

Chinatown watch Chinatown the movie look in the background she's there alright so it is what it is in the movie Chinatown. Watch Chinatown, the movie. Look in the background. She's there. All right. So it is what it is. It's what it's. We knew it heading in.

I call for a different person. I also feel like Kamala is not the best debater either. So it's not like if he sticks to his plan of like uh you know that he's gonna turn things over to her in four years that like we're gonna get a lights out debater but i just i like the thing that's so refreshing about aoc and elizabeth warren when she was debating is like they say the thing that your your brains like that you should like right there's not like this like convoluted like web of pipes that you have to like see the thought traveling to to like get out the way that i feel like it does with biden and with uh kamala it's kind of like you can see and with hillary clinton like you can see what they're

like there's just too much calculations going on behind the mainframe like that it's just like just say just say the truth just be be about it and it's just doesn't happen with these folks yeah anyways all right let's hop in the delorean i've been thinking about you i want you back in my life it's too late for that i have a proposal for you come up here and document my project all you need to do is record everything like you always do one One session, 24 hours.

And this season, we're taking in a bigger bite out of the most delicious food and its history. Saying that the most popular cocktail is the margarita, followed by the mojito from Cuba, and the piña colada from Puerto Rico. So all of these... We thank Latin culture. There's a mention of blood sausage in Homer's Odyssey

that dates back to the 9th century B.C. B.C.? I didn't realize how old the hot dog was. Listen to Hungry for History as part of the My Cultura podcast network. Available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. and we're back in uh the past get some of that future off of me yeah the slime dark yeah slimy yeah slimy yeah it's weird it's like coming out of the demogorgon from uh strange oh yeah stranger things yeah i almost just called it strange things because i of the Demogorgon from Stranger Things. I almost just called it Strange Things because I am an old man.

All right, let's talk about, before we get into the merch war, let's talk about the 15-minute rule. Not to be confused with the 15-second rule where you drop your food on the ground and you can still eat it if it's only been there for 15 seconds the 15 minute rule is the one that states that you don't have to worry about covet if you're not around somebody who has it for more than 15 minutes that's not

actually the how scientists were putting it but it is how i've interpreted that's how i had how my brain interpreted it is like i can just you know have a singing contest with somebody for 14 minutes but then you know as the timer ticks down i gotta get out of there yeah um but they just announced that it doesn't need to be consecutive uh because a um corrections officer in vermont uh got it from different uh detainees that they were interacting with like multiple times throughout the day for really short brief periods that added up to 15 minutes um it really is weird though it's like it's like so cumulative it's all about like if they the amount of virus that's coming out of that person's body gets to come out of their body and enter yours for 15 minutes like total then you're in trouble i wonder if i wonder

if um it's cumulative and you can retain it like let's say you spend seven minutes with the person you go do some other shit and you come back and spend eight more minutes then you have 15 minutes yeah that's right yeah that's what they're saying yeah over 24 hours if you like if i spend five minutes with you in the morning then you know we have lunch together and then five minutes at the end of the day like you're i i eat in three minutes uh that's how quickly i eat lunch so no we've seen we've seen the videos on youtube so over 24 hours no more than 15 minutes worth of time and then it resets every 24 hours yeah exactly uh yeah i don't know so much to keep track of clean bill but it is yeah yeah

but i i think maybe it helps give peace of mind in the event that you maybe you know if you might be over overly concerned uh about like your exposure risk and things like that but i think at the end of the day it's always just best don't even in your back your mind be like fuck it man let's take these masks off for about 10 minutes. Huh? I know you, I think we can, I trust you. Uh,

and just always keep the room. I'm sorry. I was just going to ask what happens if you're in the room with multiple people with COVID. So does that cut your time in half? Right. If you're doing a singing contest with two people who have COVID. Oh,

right. Yeah. Like seven and a half minutes with two people? Right. Yeah. See, this is why kids just wear the mask, socially distance, y'all don't. You're playing suck and blow with them

and like losing at it frequently. Right. Like, yeah, that's probably not good. But doctor, we only kissed for 13 minutes. No, you idiot. Where did you hear this? The daily zeitgeist. The what?

Remember when they were saying like at the beginning of this pandemic, they were saying that you can get COVID through semen? Yeah. Is that not true? I don't know. I stopped hearing about that. Yeah. My pastor was saying that for years. I believe't know. I stopped hearing about that. Yeah, my pastor was saying that for years. So I believe the science.

Yeah. So you're saying your pastor is responsible for COVID. I don't know what he's... I mean, I use pastor loosely. I mean, he basically was the best at shooting from half court at the local YMCA. Called Pastor Weddy because it was just wet from half court every time. All right. Before we go,

let's talk really briefly about what we're going to watch over the weekend. So the Netflix top 10, we got new Unsolved Mysteries coming through. I don't think we ever did unsolved mysteries as an official rewatch so i think we just all didn't we just watch it we watched just all like we were talking about it yeah yeah like that yeah yo did that dude jump off the roof

or did he get pushed how did he what happened to that guy in the first episode i remember and his cell phone was chill on the top of the roof but his sandal was only partially blown off that was really strange I actually rewatched that episode instead of watching more episodes because I wanted to see what my wife thought and she was on on board with you guys thinking that

my theory that it was a manic episode was not founded so the mystery is still out guys i'm an idiot but yeah i started watching the i saw the first episode of the new season it was all right okay okay um haunting of bligh manor are you uh are you a haunting boy i fucking hate i hateiz, are you a haunting gal? No, I actually... Haunt fam? I am, and I loved it. I love the story. I like the guy who made it.

I loved haunting at Hill House. Okay. I just think it's... I think it's a great and sort of beautiful story. Wow. It takes a lot of... You have to be smart to structure a story like that. That's just...'s it's good.

It starts off a little slow. I actually started watching five minutes and stopped. Then a friend was like, give it some time. And it was worth it. But I would I would suggest starting with Haunting at Hill House. Yeah. First, I think. Or else it won't make sense.

It won't be scary. No, no. It's an anthology so it's like unrelated but like right everyone has american accents in the first one so it's a little more palatable for us american yeah you know like yeah if you have a more refined taste than bly manor i think is yeah it's yeah bly manor they made it sound fancy Bly Manor like just that syllable Bly sounds very British and fancy are you

are you like conjuring fam are you like did you are you into haunted house movies yeah yeah I love all that I love all the genre stuff Berenstain Bear spooky house episode the spooky tree house

all that stuff. I haven't seen that. That's a childhood book that I was... So is it Berenstain or Berenstain? Isn't it Berenstain? But we always thought it was Berenstain. Yeah, Berenstain or Berenstain.

I could have... I swear it was EI, man. See, I told you she was from an alternate universe, Miles. Do you know that? Yeah, maybe Fizza. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. The Mandela stuff.

Yeah, the Mandela effect. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I, but I do, do you guys not remember that? Do you remember it as A? I, I have other things that are Mandelaela effect but i always remembered it being the way it was but that's probably because i didn't read those books until college uh right that's when i really got into them um when you were sort of got to that reading level you're ready finally ready

for him yeah i was i wrote my master's thesis on yeah Yeah, doing Berenstain Bears and Sartre back-to-back, I think, was a pretty big move. Yeah. Am I the only person who keeps thinking of the cornerback, Dre Bly, when I hear the Haunting of Bly Manor? Yeah, you have some football history that I... I'm going to be the worst senile man.

Rebecca is a new movie that is a remake of a hitchcock movie has yet to be done i think so right it's a remake of rebecca i don't know i'm not i i know fucking nothing of hitchcock really i know like three things about him yeah it's a good evening. It's an American romantic psychological thriller directed by Alfred Hitchcock in 1940. And people keep being like, you know what we should do is remake a movie by the best director,

but with a different worst director. But this time it looks different. Anyways, that's that's trending i've heard people be between uh agnostic and unimpressed with that audacity though to do that right to be like we're gonna do hitchcock that's like gonna be like when jojo siwa is like yo i covered uh kendrick lamar's to pimple butterfly y'all what do y'all think or like rata jelly or something yeah yeah exactly uh Yanni at least yes I do love Yanni uh my next guest with uh the David Letterman talk show I this is the first guest that I've been intrigued to watch the first episode I've

been intrigued to watch because he's always getting like these got obama he's got like really impressive people who you know i am interested in but not necessarily seeing david letterman talk to them but this time it's kim kardashian and oh nice social justice warrior my favorite thing that david letterman does is like when he's kind of baffled by the fame of the person that he's talking to and he's just like so wait what like what is happening like when he would have the people from survivor on when they got kicked off and just be like what the fuck like and this next cbs for making me do this. Yeah. But anyway, it seems like he wants to go fishing. Yeah. Yeah.

Right. Right. He's like, got one eye on the clock. He's like, yeah. And then what? Well, Borat comes out, too, which may be also. Yeah. Tender as well, because on the heels of that Rudy Giuliani story.

Should we do Borat? I believe it's free. If you are on the the bezos uh tube machine aka amazon prime uh so you had also suggested that hulu uh documentary about covid but like that's totally under control just like yeah totally under control we should just watch that regardless i don't feel like you should and it it'll really bum you out, but also make you sort of really, I think one of, I don't know,

listen to scientists even more, even harder. Yeah. Because like, Jesus Christ about, about everything. Yeah. Um,

so, but yeah, I think Borat will have the dual thing of like maybe making me laugh and then also making my skin crawl off my whole body. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Let's do that.

But that's going to do it for today. Fizza, it's been so fun having you as always. Uh, where can people, where can people find you and follow you? Um, I'm on the internet.

So all praise to Cookie Smut for that rework of Bad Boys for Life. Let's see.

A tweet that I like is from Ian Carmel at Ian Carmel. Uh, he was like sort of quote tweeting a page six tweet that shows Ellen DeGeneres is new, like slicked back hairdo that she's rocking. And he tweets Ellen losing her shit at a ref after Patrick Ewing picks up his fifth foul because it looks like Pat Riley. It's the most ridiculous shit

oh you know that's just that's for the old timey sports fans uh out there so shout out to that but the hair the slick back hairdo is the back is really giving me the pat riley vibes yeah i mean because it's almost getting a little a semi m. It's getting a little mully back there. Yeah. So. I forgive everything now. The hairdo. I can't stay mad at her with that hairdo. Once you go Pat Riley. Yeah.

Yeah. Once you go. A couple of tweets I've been enjoying. Peace at Peacezilla tweeted. Alcohol affects people differently. When I drink, I become happy, joyful and free. The life of the party. Meanwhile, those around me become bitter and angry,

jealous that I know everything, have the ability to dance at any song, and most of all, become both sexy and fireproof.

Miles, what are we riding out on today? Oh, we are riding out on a track by a group called Self Steam. One word, S-E-L-F-S-T-E-A-M. And the track is called Sushi.

And it's just got, you know, last time we were going on some, like, vibey, like, Pacific Coast Highway with the Top Town music. This is the same thing except now I feel like we're at a menu screen of like a Genesis game and the game like the whole point of the game

is just a vibe as hard as possible and you're selecting your character and that's the kind of music I'm liking right now. It's got like because it's just a blend of

soothing familiar like sounds but like I think the old school aesthetic takes me back to simpler times when i was a child and had no bills and that's what it's all about uh so yeah take that one out sushi by self-esteem the way i play uh the the point of the game is always to buy as hard as possible oh hell yeah that's why you're also one of the worst. Especially NBA Jam. You're one of the worst people to play Fortnite with and Call of Duty type games.

You're like, ah, come on, guys. That's such a bummer. That's a vibe, man. This led me 360. I'm not even trying to hit anybody. I'm just trying to do these 360s. Oh, is that the look? The aesthetic.
