On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I talk to people about navigating these very moments. The last couple of years has been the hardest season of our marriage for sure. I'm surprised our marriage survived it. I think we both are. I think we both were barely holding on. Nothing compares to how hard this is. Their stories are full of candor, awe, and hard-won wisdom.

Dude, I travel light and I can travel light emotionally. I'm done. There's stuff that I cannot control. I have left many a wonderful atmosphere or a loving atmosphere or a friendly atmosphere. And like Ernie Banks, the, you know, the ball player for the Chicago Cubs without ever looking back, without thinking, oh, things were really wonderful back then. I wish I was back there.

Starting point is 00:05:07 with the culture makers who inspire us. Like a recent episode with Grammy award winning rapper Eve on her new memoir and the moments that made her. It became a theme in my life, the underdog syndrome of being questioned of the, would they say this to a man? No, they would not. Like why?
Starting point is 00:05:25 That was one of those moments where you're just like, oh, wow, it was a bit shocking, but it didn't take any steam away or anything like that. If anything, it was more of the, okay, I'll show you, no worries. Listen to the Bright Side from Hello Sunshine on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:05:43 iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hello, the Internet and welcome to this week trend edition of Dirt Haley's. Hey, guys. Yeah. Dirt Haley's. Hey, guys. Oh, I don't know. I don't know why I have a voice for doing that. I like that. I'm real strained there. My name is Jack O'Brien. That over there is Mr. Miles Gray!
Starting point is 00:06:08 Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Thank you, thank you. What's up, man? I'm just, look, I'm just a happy West Coast kid, a boy from LA, watching the World Series. Who knows? It could go completely the other way, but I'm loving it. People are like, maybe they can just win, maybe they can lose one in New York and we can win now. No, no, no, I don't care Don't know don't fuck around like that crush that and we do have control we have control over that
Starting point is 00:06:33 So it is us to decide this it depends on the angle of my fitted hat Yes, and we are wearing it at the winning angle every game If I tilt it like Jay-z then the Yankees will win. I cannot do that. I have to work on the top of my crowd like a true Angelina. Okay. Yeah, I like it. All right.
Starting point is 00:06:53 Well, this is the episode where we tell you some of the things that happened over the weekend, some of the things that are trending on this Monday morning. First, we like to get to know you a little bit better. Oh, we like to get to. We like you to get to know us a little bit better. Let's be honest. We don't care about you. Uh, by telling you some things that we think are underrated, some things we think are overrated miles. Do you want to kick this off?
Starting point is 00:07:17 What, what do you want to start with? Unders? Yeah, let's do under things. The world series I think is underrated for a very specific reason, which I just think it's, it's just, it's do under two things. The World Series, I think, is underrated for a very specific reason, which I just think it's it's just it's bringing, I think, for millennials of a certain age with a hip hop love of hip hop. This feels like the most hip hop world series of all fucking time. East Coast, West Coast. Yes, this is literally this is the Yankees hat versus the L.A. hat.
Starting point is 00:07:41 And I know that there were obviously when it was the Brooklyn Dodgers, some some storied that was a storied rivalry as well with the Yankees. But this one specifically feels so I'm like so in my West Coast bag. I love it. When Ice Cube came out for Game Two doing bow down West Side connection. Wow. Telling the fuck telling them to fucking bow down. I'm like, yes, yes, this is great. And now I'm so excited. What's going to happen in New York? Who do they have? I'm like, who's at that level of possibly rap in New York? What I'm saying is this was a conversation I was having is like,
Starting point is 00:08:20 would Jay Z come out? Jay Z feels like too big to come out. Yeah. Yeah. Jay Z's like short too big to come out. Yeah. Yeah. Jay-Z is like short list for Super Bowl. So World Series is probably too tiny. But Cube has stature in the history of hip hop. You know what I mean? Like gangsta rap, all that stuff that branches off from projects Cube was involved in. So I'm like, they have to come with like, is it Eric B and Rakim or something like that? Is that old for people?
Starting point is 00:08:45 We're just like history. Yeah, I mean baseball is for the historically minded, you know, it is a sport that really hasn't changed You know would be fun. I was listening to Nas this morning. I was actually listening to verbal intercourse Off of Cuban links the houses feature on that very good this morning because I am old Yeah, fuck but anyway, I love Cuban links. The Nasas feature on that very good this morning because I am old as fuck. But anyway, I just love series. Yeah, I love if anything, just for all the people watching and what it brings out because these are two big cities. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:17 The other thing I'll just say underrated the movie, The Craft, the 1996 can't be the girls become witches in the high school movie, the craft. Fantastic Halloween watch. I love it. I haven't seen that since it was in movie theaters. And I was in high school. Spooky as hell. Is it spooky? Yeah. And for Rooza Balk.
Starting point is 00:09:38 Oh, my God. I know. Just born to play that role. Character acting. Yeah. Oh, love it. Oh, oh you said about you Jack Miles my underrated is clothes that can go in the dryer. Oh We have we have a single banister in our house that we dry clothes on and it feels That's our laundry rack and I don't know I just need to like add a laundry line to the backyard or something. Is that banister wood? No, it's metal.
Starting point is 00:10:09 OK, I was going to say, yeah, yeah. If it was wood, we'd be in trouble. Yeah, it's all wonky and shit and warped. It's warped. It looks like it's in a Tim Burton movie. But yeah, more and more, I feel like clothes are just flat dry, hang dry to maintain the shape of your six-year-old sweatshirt. I'm like, I don't need my six-year-old sweatshirt to like always look pristine. Oh, so you want to do like a crop, you want to look like a crop sweatshirt then?
Starting point is 00:10:37 Because that'll happen if you put that in the dryer. Yeah. I don't know. It just feels like we have this wonderful device. We're making poly blends like all of the clothes that have to be line dried are poly blends for the most part. It's like we've invented new fabrics and made it so you can't put them in the dryer. Which for all the plastic we're putting in and on our bodies that I'm sorry, the dryer. This is why I like some shirts. I just don't trust to not shrink. I it's my biggest pet peeve is just shrinking some shit in the dryer.
Starting point is 00:11:11 So by default I've turned into like my like Japanese family where just like everything I'm just like line drying in the sun. I'm like, I can't risk it. I can't risk it. Yeah, but I don't know. It's just, and I feel like this is just like it's not a complaint that is Cool to make and so the extra work happens behind the scenes so like they they have no incentive like it's actually cooler to like have clothes that are like a
Starting point is 00:11:37 Delicate little flower, you know the right right now you have like treat Perfectly and I'm just my brain is so appreciative when I come across like one of my wife's T-shirts and it's like this can go in the dryer. Yeah. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Thank you so much. Granted, this could all be fixed with just like putting up a line in our backyard. I just am lazy and have. Oh, yeah, just get it.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Like you see this little rack right here I got behind me. Then people are like, you are in your closet I'm like no, this is half sound baffling half my own drying rack. Ah Yeah, easy. I guess I just need to buy invest I just need to invest and then dry rack but anyways until I do Fuck you and your athletic Polyblends that can't even go go Uniqlo all day, bro. That's right. Easy dry.
Starting point is 00:12:28 What miles of something you think is overrated? I don't know how to put this. We overrate the lack of responsibility of white voters in an election. I don't know. I don't know how to put this. The emphasis I've been saying this for the last couple of weeks. The emphasis is so much been about all Hispanic men do well Arab voters do yeah, what are black men doing? I'm like look I Know everything's about the margins, but I wish in our discourse
Starting point is 00:12:57 There was more of an emphasis like on the responsibility of American white American people to also make the quote-unquote Right choice or wrong choice it's very much like yeah yeah I mean like this this is all on you guys the fucking the Hispanic voter the black voter the Arab or Muslim but this is all on you guys now what are y'all gonna do like that's what it feels like and I fucking hate it but just like with the the shit that happened at the like Nazi rally at MSG. And Tony Hinchcliffe's joke about Puerto Ricans,
Starting point is 00:13:28 there was a lot of stuff like, uh-oh. Here we go. You poked the nest, Puerto Rico. There's 400,000 Puerto Rican voters and these swings, like, I, great. And they're like, you don't, look, what do you think they're gonna do now? I'm like, I wish I'm like, well,
Starting point is 00:13:42 what about the people who are equally disturbed by hearing that kind of racist shit? What are they? Oh, we're going to fuck it up again. Oh, no, no, no, no. We're going to find with racism. The whites are going to fuck it up. We're like, yeah, that's implicit in all these stories.
Starting point is 00:13:57 I know. And it's just so my like, just like that, that feeling of like, that's how white supremacy is like will function in sort of the analysis of this this election is to not look at they're like you know again just this part was wild when they're talking about different gains that Trump and Kamala Harris have made you know Trump's gains have been offset by because they're talking about how he increased support among Hispanic men his gains have been offset by increased support for Harris among white women who favored Trump over Biden by 12 points in 2020, but now lean Republican by three points. So their edge is still 3%. They still have a 3% edge. That's a really big thing to talk about and dissect. And again, the'm the other stuff about like,
Starting point is 00:14:45 we spoke with these black supporting Trump, these Trump supporting black voters. I just, it's so exhausting and it, I don't know. It just, I'm just like, I'm at that point, I'm like, just shut up. Please talk about like these other massive blocks, like these massive voting blocks that have chunks of a huge ability to sway
Starting point is 00:15:05 rather than being like, well, Puerto Ricans be offended by Puerto Rican jokes. Right. Fuck you. Like, I'm just tired. I'm tired. And that also we need more character actors. The lack of emphasis on good character actors. Sorry, I saw for Rooza Balk in the graph. I said that unrelated. Yeah. Just just to tie it up.
Starting point is 00:15:23 That also we need. I want more of those like really specific look character actors rather than all these like, you know, leading people that are impossibly beautiful. Yeah, I want character. I want something different. I want texture. Not everybody needs a six pack and no like, no. Some people need like a freaky mouth and ears, you know, mouth and ears. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:49 Like where is our Steve Buscemi? You know, like, I don't know. They tried to claim that the two leads of challengers were like rat boys, but they're both just like really hot. Yeah. They could, they could easily play really hot if they wanted to. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, like they're like, these guys are fucking freaks. Yeah, their symmetrical proportions are like, you know, five percent off of what you would expect from mathematical perfection. But that's fine.
Starting point is 00:16:21 We can handle it. Yeah, it's just where is our Where are our rat teens? I rat actors that actually they aren't like again our our world is diverse Not everyone looks like a chiseled faced rat boy. Some of us look like it all the rat face That's right. What a jam. My overrated. Go on something serious.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Yeah. Keeping with the very serious and incisive political commentary. Peast stream water delivery techniques. Having the water that comes out of refrigerators, like the ice maker thing, so much like an extremely strong P stream is a weird decision to me. Like I don't know. Well, first of all, it like splashes back. It's too strong, too intense. The streams too intense. Like we have to, we have, you know, mats inside urinals to deal with that stuff. I have one in my drinking cup.
Starting point is 00:17:27 You keep a urinal, your urinal. Yeah, but it would. I mean, the urinal cake wouldn't know the difference. No. If you're putting it in one of those like ice makers, I don't know. We we had water coming out of faucets for so long. It was fine. It's beautiful. Soda fountains, I love a soda fountain. Oh yeah. You know, I feel like those are designed to be like kind of soft yet forceful at the same
Starting point is 00:17:53 time. Water fountains have this like graceful arc to them. Like turn one of those upside down. That should be fine. Even like the refill water bottle things on water. Airports. Yeah, at the airport or like, those come out like a faucet.
Starting point is 00:18:09 It's like, yeah, they're coming out like a faucet. They're great. I don't know why high end refrigerators need to piss the water into our glass so strenuously. I think it's because of the filtration process. Yeah, like they have to force it through. And I'm not, look, I'm not, I'm on your side, Jack. Yeah, it sounds like you're Team Pea Stream, huh? No, I'm not Team Pea Stream.
Starting point is 00:18:31 I'm not Team Pea Stream, how dare you? How dare you? I'm Team Pooh Stream, well no, not Pooh Stream. It should just plop out and just be. Blobs, yeah, viscous blobs into my cup. But yeah, no, I I definitely agree because it is also I have like bad water pressure, like in my kitchen. So it comes out real.
Starting point is 00:18:51 It's coming out green mile style. It's is that an L.A. thing or is there water pressure problems all over the place? No, because I went up the street to a friend's house and their shit was healthy. Healthy. I mean, our kitchen is healthy, but our shower in our bedroom will just turn off me like shower. That's you may, you may want to talk to a plumber. Is that gang? If you can, you know, also give Jack some tips.
Starting point is 00:19:21 How can he just on his own, maybe crank it up a little bit. You know what I mean? The peace stream? No, the, the the shower. Yeah, or the whatever you want. We've been working on it It's a true mystery. Yeah, look Brian the editor also points out He hates how the fridge shivers and then sighs when it's done dispensing water. That's true. It is like a real Fucking they're fine. Yeah. Again, yeah, because you got Tom Hanks in the Green Mile attached to your fucking.
Starting point is 00:19:51 I feel like this is a Tom Hanks in the Green Mile situation where like whoever designed the refrigerator, he's coming. He'll come in. I'll come and heal your refrigerator real quick. Yeah. Like John. Lay hands on it. Yeah, baby. That thing will be, you'll be crying.
Starting point is 00:20:09 You'll be crying. Wasn't Tom Hanks crying at one point because it was coming out all crazy. What's that one shot of him peeing in the field? That is so for people who don't know, Tom Hanks pees in all his movies. And then it culminates in the green mile where his character's entire character motivation is that he has trouble peeing. And then John Coffee, initials JC, don't read anything into that, lays hands on his dick and ball area and then that night he has to pee and is prepared for a very unpleasant
Starting point is 00:20:47 peeing experience and then he runs outside, kneels down and it is Tom Hanks is like most he's acting so hard. It's like close on his face as he has the first comfortable pee in his life. I guess the issue was kidney stones, like, but like, permanent kidney stones. And he just has this, this look on his face. And that's weird. I'm going to, you know, put out a fan theory about refrigerator water dispensing tactics, that there's somebody who designed that, who had like similar Hanks thing you know we can't write well what's in our unconscious it's just you know it's
Starting point is 00:21:29 there and Tom Hanks clearly has like something Urim related that you know League of their own he has an extremely strong peace stream for a long I gotta go pay like he uses P after P as an excuse in the burbs and I think it saves his life and road to perdition if I'm not mistaken But it all all cool movie is this Is this green mile? This is green mile. Oh my This is him kneeling down and having a vet. This is before That's a peace stream is healed yikes that yeah Sorry, we're we're looking at guys. Look, uh, November is almost here. Check. That's all about prostate health.
Starting point is 00:22:09 Check out your, check out your, your, your plumbing. Check the state. Yep. The prostate. That's what I call it. State of the union. Uh, all right. Uh, those are some of the things that we think is overrated and underrated. We're going to take a quick break. We're going to come back and tell you what happened over the weekend. We'll be right back. Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16th, 2017, was murdered.

Starting point is 00:25:29 the daily podcast from Hello Sunshine that is guaranteed to light up your day. Every weekday, we bring you conversations with the culture makers who inspire us. Like our recent episode with Grammy award-winning rapper Eve on her new memoir and the moments that made her. It became a theme in my life, the underdog syndrome of being questioned of the, would they say this to a man?
Starting point is 00:25:52 No, they would not. Like, why? That was one of those moments where you're just like, oh wow. It was a bit shocking, but it didn't take any steam away or anything like that. If anything, it was more of the, okay, I'll show you. No worries. Listen to The Bright Side from Hello Sunshine on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. When I smoke weed, I get lost in the music. I like to isolate each instrument. The rhythmic bass, the harmonies on the piano,
Starting point is 00:26:26 the sticky melody. Hey, hey, hey, hey. Careful, babe. There's someone crossing the street. Sorry, I didn't see him there. If you feel different, you drive different. Don't drive high. It's dangerous and illegal everywhere.
Starting point is 00:26:44 A message from NHTSA and the Ad Council. And we're back. We are back. We are back. We're back. And so in advance of Donald Trump had a Madison Square Garden rally over the weekend. Democrats were like, you know who else had a Madison Square Garden rally over the weekend. Democrats were like, you know, who else had a Madison Square Garden rally at one point was the what back then was called the pro-American rally
Starting point is 00:27:13 and it was a bunch of Hitler supporters and Nazis. Miles, I'm not going to lie, heading into the event. I was like they're really like built like what if they don't do that? It just felt like the the Democrats were like a little bit like over leveraged on the watch this shit there It's gonna be just like Hitler's pro-american rally in 1939 and I was just like maybe like we let people be surprised by that because like this not necessarily like they they could easily like change their messaging for a mainstream like New York media audience but the Democrats know Donald Trump and the current Republican Party better than I did because they did not disappoint.
Starting point is 00:28:08 They did not disappoint. Yeah. No, it was just too good. It was just all right there for them to be like, let's fucking do it. Let's just let them know. So he had actually spent a lot of the week leading up to it, stressing that he's not a Nazi loving fascist. On Thursday, he denied that he had ever said positive things about Hitler during his time in office, including that he needed the kind of general's Hitler had.
Starting point is 00:28:38 I never said that, Trump said in response to people questioning that. I would never say that. No, really? Really? Okay. So there's so many people. What do you keep by your bedside table? Yeah, what's that book by your bedside table there, buddy?
Starting point is 00:28:51 It's, uh, Maine Camp F. Maine Camp F? Like Chow Maine spelled the same way. I don't know if you know that. Me in camp. Me in camp F. Me in camp F. It's a children's book. What's it about? Me in camp. Me in camp F. Me in camp F. It's a children's book.
Starting point is 00:29:10 What's it about? It's about a kid who's in a concentration camp. Oh, yeah. It's my camp. It's my camp. So the message of, you know, unity or I would never say that I thought Hitler did cool stuff didn't really come across in the rally itself. His childhood friend, David Rem, opened things up by calling Kamala Harris the Antichrist and waving around a literal crucifix. Like he brought a prop with him.
Starting point is 00:29:38 Yeah? Like fucking. So you know you're serious. Carrot top. Yeah, just big crucifix, holding it it up Rudy Giuliani claimed that Hamas trains toddlers to kill Americans during his unhinged speech. This guy's about to lose everything by the way also Rudy Giuliani He like lost of Donald Trump because of Donald Trump like he's gonna have to sell his like apartment and like sell all of his like knickknacks, including his prized World Series rings, I
Starting point is 00:30:06 think, to offset all the damages he's liable for. Well, his knickknacks are most of his paddy wax. Yeah. Which, yeah. But that bow, that dog ain't getting that. And then comedian, in quotes, Tony Hinchcliffe of the Kill Tony podcast, which I've been hearing about this Kill Tony podcast for a which like I've been hearing about this Kill Tony podcast for a while.
Starting point is 00:30:27 Have you? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like people are like, oh, comedy like Kill Tony. Oh, yeah, they do. They do it in Austin, dude. It's all part of that Rogan shit, dude. It's really sick, man. Yeah. They're just really awful to people every now and then. There might be a funny person, but yeah, right
Starting point is 00:30:45 and so the titular Tony of kill Tony took the stage and Said things like these Latinos they love making babies too. There's no pulling out. They don't do that They come inside just like they did to our country And then he referred to Puerto Rico as a floating island of garbage. Yeah this is I think again really important to note that this guy is performing at what most people were like yeah this is a Nazi rally yeah and this joke this joke even like the people there are kind of like uh like. Yeah, which is weird.
Starting point is 00:31:25 I'll play it because I think it's important to hear that this was a thing that a guy wanted to say and other people like, yeah, yeah, this'll be good. This'll be good. It is absolutely wild times. It really, really is. And he looks, he's looking like he's wearing his like my first communion suit.
Starting point is 00:31:43 Yeah, yeah, he doesn't. His suit is. But he is wearing a suit and he is at a political rally. That's important to note because his response has been like, I'm just a comedian. I'm just like up here riffing and doing. No, you look like you're like, my mom told me I need to dress good if I'm going to meet Donald Trump, president. Yeah, you know, there's a lot going on. Like, I don't know if you guys know this, but there's literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. Yeah, I think it's called Puerto Rico
Starting point is 00:32:13 Okay, all right All right. Okay. All right. That's so that's not good. No, he does the guys I don't normally follow the national anthem. That's like his response is like, come on, I'm just a comedian up here. He had like a real dude, everything. It was there's black jokes. He's talking about carving up watermelon. He's like, watermelon in the audience. Yeah, he did.
Starting point is 00:32:37 He was talking about Israel and Palestine, about rock paper scissors. He's like, Palestinians will throw rocks. He's like, and he's a quote.'s like, and then he said, quote, and also we know Jews have a hard time throwing that paper and was like making it, it was so fucking hack and racist and offensive and just nonsense that it's just wild also to see the defenses of this shit. Cause it was, it was indefensible.
Starting point is 00:33:02 And then Tony Hinch, cause like some people don't like comedy or whatever. He like retweeted, he retweeted Rickles doing like an event for Ronald Reagan. And he was like, oh, edgy comedians don't perform in political things. And it's like Rickles is like literally roasting every single person there.
Starting point is 00:33:19 He's not going up there. He was like, hey, what do we think about Puerto Ricans? Yeah, exactly. Like such a misunderstanding of what comedy is and what just racist bullshit, like vitriol masked as a joke is, and this was a room of Republicans who, you know, are running on a racist platform in the name of fascism and telling a bunch of racist jokes that are like 50 years out of date is Man, so punk rock man truth. Yeah our brother Yeah, just the punching down in a way that is I guess very comfortable for
Starting point is 00:34:01 the Trump Vance ticket and he yeah, like you, he keeps coming out and being like, this is just like one joke that they took out of context, watched the rest of the set and like the rest of the set is, it's awful. Yeah. All that. And then Trump's senior advisor has come out and said, like, this joke does not reflect the views of president Trump or the campaign, which is a little tough to argue when it was said by someone, uh, in a suit, standing at a Trump Vance podium, uh, scheduled speaker. He did not storm the
Starting point is 00:34:35 stage and take a microphone. Um, this is what he does on prompter. I don't know if it was, I mean, that would even be like, like, brother, you loaded the teleprompter with this bullshit. Yeah. And it's also like, in addition to the entire, his entire set being that, like they're acting like, well, the rest of our Nazi rally had a message of peace and love. It did not. No. The Stephen Miller came up and stated that America is for Americans and Americans only.
Starting point is 00:35:09 I know I've heard that. Oh yeah. Germany is for Germans and Germans only. Great quote from AD Ulf High Tlarer. Yeah. I think is how you say that. Yeah, that was a slow. Only for Germans was a German ethnocentric slogan indicating that certain
Starting point is 00:35:32 establishments, transportation, other facilities were exclusively for Germans. It was used during World War Two. It was like a Nazi meme. It's like he forgot to write a speech until the morning of the rally and just started frantically Googling Nazi meme. Yeah. It's like he forgot to write a speech until the morning of the rally and just started frantically Googling Nazi slogan. The energy too from Teenage Mutant Ninja Gerbils over here is also wild. Like again, you watch this and you're like, oh, their whole strategy is let's just let
Starting point is 00:35:59 the mask come off. We're fucking Nazis. This is it. Here we go. The cartels are gone. The criminal migrants are gone the cartels are gone the criminal migrants are gone the gangs are gone yeah sir this is a Wendy's yeah what yeah the frosty machine is broken I'm sorry the cartels gone okay Jesus Christ
Starting point is 00:36:19 okay who else do you want to expel from the country? America is for Americans and Americans only! one more time America is for Americans and Americans only! One more time. America is for Americans and Americans only! One man, and that man, ladies and gentlemen, that man took a bullet for you, he took a bullet for democracy. Yeah, a self-inflicted one in his bunkers when the Allies were closing in on Berlin.
Starting point is 00:36:46 Yeah, exactly. Good job. Yeah, that might have been in the back of his mind. Of course, I'm talking about. Yeah, and that poor dog too. Yeah. It's worth watching the actual video of his speech because it does, like he is animated in a way that it's giving I don't know I Forget where I've seen that it's like in some black and white clip, but his yeah whole
Starting point is 00:37:15 Persona and hand gestures and energy is reminding me of something And then there was like a bunch of weird shit that something. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. And then there was like a bunch of weird shit that made me feel like I'm in a coma right now and just like my brain is misfiring. Dr. Phil showed up to claim that Trump isn't really a bully and criticized DEI. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it is.
Starting point is 00:37:38 And I'm going to get torn apart for saying this. Yeah. His whole thing. Oh my God. What did he say here? Here's one. Well, now wait a minute. Come on. Isn't Trump a bully? And let me tell you why the answer to that question is no. Because I'm not a real doctor or should not be listened to. So fuck everything I say. Yeah. And then I think the, yeah, the one that really felt like it was in a bad dream is like Hulk Hogan tried to rip
Starting point is 00:38:09 his shirt off and it like took him so long and he just like couldn't get it off. And he was just. Yeah, you don't. Like it's just wild, here he comes out on stage with like a feather boa, raving his flag. Here we go. Oh, come on, rip it. Uh-oh, still can't rip it.
Starting point is 00:38:29 Still can't rip it. Still looking at it. Still can't rip it. Still ripping, still ripping. He's still ripping. Oh, there it is. He's gonna have a fucking heart attack trying to rip his shirt off soon.
Starting point is 00:38:41 There's like a lot of desperation in that. Yeah, a lot of strength. He was doing it with like the energy that I have when someone's like, hey, man, your flies down, you know, you're just like frantically like, oh shit. Also, and it ripped all weird, like he couldn't rip it down the collar. So I think he ripped it at the arm Steve scene. So I was like, ah, look, the tanner is affecting me. Alina Habbaba who lost several cases
Starting point is 00:39:08 For Donald Trump took the stage to the sounds of all I do is win by DJ Khaled And then when Trump spoke it was just all the same shit same shit Yeah, they're fucking they can't pay for hurricanes because of migrants. They're shipping them in, they're stealing your rev your dreams. Just the, just all just the same, same, same, same shit. And he's really, he's like, he's definitely in his like Wu Tang phase. Cause this dude regularly now is showing up like hours after his slated appearance time. He's on his Warren Hill.
Starting point is 00:39:42 Yeah, easily. He's like, they'll wait. I haven't spoken in days. They'll wait. And then it sounded like there was some anecdotal videos of people kind of being like, all right, we saw the coherent racist speak. I don't need to hear Trump anymore. Yeah, we might as well.
Starting point is 00:39:58 We got to catch the fucking, you know, we got to get back to Staten Island. You did brag about having a quote, little secret about the house that wouldn't be revealed until after the election. So which chilling. Yeah. So the hinge cliff line is definitely the one that is kind of resonating the most bad bunny endorsed Harris as did Ricky Martin immediately after Florida Republicans are like scrambling to distance themselves,
Starting point is 00:40:25 stating this rhetoric does not reflect GOP values. So then what is it? Well, why, why did it happen? What is this joke bombed for a reason? It's not funny and it's not true, said Rick Scott. Well, hey, it's an election year, baby. Yeah, you better not. I hope you're that.
Starting point is 00:40:42 I hope you're smart enough to be like, I don't know. It's kind of like a garbage island, even though it's part of these are American citizens. Yeah, sure, sure, sure, sure. Tony Hinchcliffe defended his speech and was like, these people have no sense of humor. Wild that because Tim Walls and AOC were like live reacting to the Nazi rally. And he was critical of the jokes, which is shocking, but managed to hurt Tony Hinchcliffe's feelings. Like these people have no sense of humor.
Starting point is 00:41:18 Wild that a vice presidential candidate would take time out of his busy schedule to analyze a joke taken out of context to make it seem racist. What? What's the context context to make it seem racist. What? What's the context? Racist. I love Puerto Rico and vacation there. Get fucked. I hope the next time you're there, everyone shits on your mofongo, bro. I thought you would eat that. You'd probably eat fucking subway or some shit.
Starting point is 00:41:39 I would. I would change that to the past tense. Vacation to there. I don't think you're going to come up with that energy this time. Yeah. So I don't know. The last part, too. I made fun of everyone. Watch the whole set.
Starting point is 00:41:54 I made fun of black people, Jewish people, Palestinians. And it wasn't even like really cutting. I was just shitting on people. Then he said, I'm a comedian, Tim. Might be time to change your tampon. And so he says, I'm a comedian and then tells a very funny joke to prove it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, he's good.
Starting point is 00:42:16 And everybody who told me that kill Tony is funny should be very proud of themselves. Most comedians are we were like, it's, it's great to see like the worst person in comedy just be on the national stage as like a complete fucking hack. Right. And like have him being a hack like possibly affect the outcome of the presidential election. I'm sure, sure this will all be forgotten three days from now, but yeah, with whatever the new thing is. But yeah, good job. Good job, everybody. No notes. You did a flawless job of communicating
Starting point is 00:42:57 to the world that you are a bunch of regressive racist freaks. Great. Great. Just a lot of kind of stories over the weekend that like the New Yorker dropped a profile of just Trump's relationship to billionaire donors. A lot of them claimed that they were going to abandon him. And it's just wild. First of all, like I didn't like I know there were isolated stories at the time during his first administration Where he was just like asking his friends from Mar-a-Lago to like be like head up the VA essentially, right? Like, you know, just do all all this wild shit and just so he just like gave important jobs to billionaires based gave important jobs to billionaires based solely on the fact that they're billionaires. And so they must be smart because smart people, he like literally says in the article, I don't
Starting point is 00:43:52 want to hear from them if they haven't made a fortune. Yeah. Yeah. So they don't know how to actively exploit people in the most fantastic ways. Yeah. I don't want that. Can't take them seriously. Yeah. And so, you know, now a lot of people who previously, a lot of the billionaires
Starting point is 00:44:09 who previously have been like, well, we're not going to support this guy. He's fucking a sick person and bad for the country are now coming around. And there's a good quote that I just want to read. Sean Willant, a historian at Princeton University, offered another key distinction. Trump's billionaires, many of whom have made their fortune as hedge fund managers, activist investors, and corporate raiders,
Starting point is 00:44:33 tend to be highly motivated ideologues and individual operators. It's transactional, but their end of the bargain is a lot different than just having access to the President of the United States, Willett told me they see Trump as their instrument. This is an investment for them to take power. Yeah. Like that really like that's why I keep bringing up the business plot. Like the, the time when like the heads of- I even had to bring it up because it was relevant when you were gone last week. That's how relevant this fucking piece of history is.
Starting point is 00:45:10 But yeah, when some of the richest people in the United States tried to stage a fascist overthrow of the government, this is their chance and all the richest people. It's everyone's chance. When you look at the people who come out at this rally, it's not just, it's billionaires who want to live in a world where they can sort of resist the tide of progress where people would potentially be taking some of their money to better the rest of the world. Yeah, there's a world where Dr. Phil is there because he wants to be in a world where he's still relevant. A world where a Hulk Hogan is still relevant
Starting point is 00:45:39 and not seen as like a racist fucking freak show. A world where Tony Hinchcliffe's shit like racist nonsense is considered quote unquote comedy. Everyone has like a stake in this in some weird way. And and and by God, they found a way to just wrap that all up into this like Nazi 2.0 thing. And everyone's like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This is I think this could be our shot to finally like, you know, flash
Starting point is 00:46:07 freeze society into this moment and I can just thrive in it forever. Yeah. And I think get it like, I don't know. I like this world where it's a kleptocracy ruled over by oligarchs, you know, like the richest people are going to be so entrenched in power that after this administration if Trump wins like it just feels like I Don't know then like the brazen ways They're going to use it to enrich themselves at the expense of others like that
Starting point is 00:46:38 You know the amount of power Elon Musk is going to have he's going to have so much fucking power He already has like weight like disturbing amounts of power, but if Trump wins, it's it's going to have he's going to have so much fucking power. He already has like, wait, like disturbing amounts of power. But if Trump wins, it's it's going to be. Yeah, my mind melting. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And even like the billionaires who aren't overtly Trump supporters, fully showing their supporters, such as Jeff Bezos, are doing things to prepare. OK, that's it. Last straw for as Jeff Bezos are doing things to prepare
Starting point is 00:47:05 Okay, that's it. This new world for me with Bezos. This was it. There's so many people who are like, okay, that's it Yeah, I'm done with basis thing, bro. This guy's a fuck leak. All of these people are fucking Creatures of the night. But yeah, so Earlier last week we were talking about how Patrick Soon shong Who's the the billionaire owner of the LA Times basically fucking put the kibosh on any endorsement from the LA Times for Comrades Then now I think we didn't we weren't able to record because the news broke on though Like at the beginning of the weekend to Jeff Bezos basically then also said nope You're not doing any I don't care if you have a quote planned endorsement
Starting point is 00:47:46 It's not happening. And then so the Washington Post I've just like they reported on this and in the article They're even like yeah He's this is a preemptive bending of the knee to Trump quote anybody who is as much a part of the American economy as Bezos Is they obviously want to have a good relationship with whoever is in power. It's an attempt to try not to be on the wrong side of Donald Trump. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:11 Yeah. I think this is a great preview of what we're going to be seeing because like, they don't give a fuck about their own money. Yeah, that's it. So everybody who's in power is going to be doing their best to fucking appease him. Like that's it's it is really I don't know. Like it's the other version where like I feel like maybe in the like three years ago, it's like, oh, don't get on the wrong side of the consumer.
Starting point is 00:48:40 Their values are X. So we don't want to we don't want to transgress. And now they're like, bro, I don't want to transgress. And now they're like, bro, I don't know, man. If we're going fucking like no breaks on this thing, then yeah, I don't give a fuck about the consumer because they'll have to get in line because I'm gonna make the most money
Starting point is 00:48:55 and make sure I'm aligned with the autocratic beings that are going to be really dictating things. Like the government contracts that I so desperately need for all of my for all of my businesses like Jeff Bezos does. If you don't believe that Trump is going to be a fucking dictator, like the billionaires who have access to like way more information than the rest of us certainly seem to be acting like he's going to be a fucking dictator. Or they're just yeah, they're just looking at it and they're like, ah, just because I'm
Starting point is 00:49:25 sure with Jeff Bezos, his strategy is like, well, just in case Trump wins, I want to make sure I stay stay wealthy. And if Kamala wins, what the fuck are they going to do? Yeah. You know, it's kind of like, it's like, I know it might look one way to you, but I'm fine either way. I'm fine either way. So I'm just going to do this because again, 2021 Amazon was awarded
Starting point is 00:49:45 a 10 billion dollar cloud computing contract with the NSA and like this is parts of like other many billions of dollars of deals that they do with the Department of Defense. Also let's not forget Blue Origin, Bezos' space exploration company, they also are vying for multiple like billion dollar grants from the federal government. So he just, he can't have that money hose turn off. Like he even sued the Trump administration previously for like being like, I feel like we were on, we were, we missed out on this contract because I own the Washington Post that had just objective coverage of Donald Trump. And I think that's not fair.
Starting point is 00:50:27 So now you're doing your thing about like, well, we didn't say anything Trump. Give me the money. Yeah. But I mean, this is how dictatorships and authoritarianism works. And I do think like there's it's like Ezra Klein had this kind of essay, uh, last week that was about, you know, the fact that the Democrats are like kind of attacking Trump in all these different ways. And he thinks they should be like more coherent about the idea that like, the thing that is broken about Donald
Starting point is 00:50:57 Trump is that he has no like executive control, no like editor, which, which is like what makes him like entertaining people, is that he will just suddenly talk about Arnold Palmer's dick or just vibe out and play music. And it's also what makes him really scary as a leader. And his point was that the only... So Democrats in their messaging have left this question dangling of if he's so bad and crazy, why wasn't his first administration more of a disaster? And the answer is, first of all, it was really bad.
Starting point is 00:51:34 But second of all, he was surrounded by people who were actively working against him the whole time. At various points, he wanted to withhold aid from California during wildfires because Gavin Newsom was mean to him. He wanted the military to start shooting George Floyd protesters in the legs. Since then, we found out that there were people actively working against him to undermine him. We know that and Trump knows it, which is why we have like project 2025 and why that project is like so scary.
Starting point is 00:52:13 But like- Yeah, because they're going after what made the first one go semi smoothly for society-ish. Yes. So this time is different because this time, you know, the people he's preparing to put in his government would be trying to execute on his vision. And we're just going to get all gas, no break Trump brain, which is going to be like truly disastrous.
Starting point is 00:52:42 But also not just him, because at this point, they're fully like sort of like with Bush too, there's a whole group of people who are like, man bro, we can work this motherfucker to get what we want done. Because Trump doesn't have a policy brain, he just wants to be out of trouble. And then just like how, you know,
Starting point is 00:52:59 the Heritage Foundation was able to be like, Harry, why don't you try this stuff? He's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, I don't care. He's like, just make the money come in from foreign sources. Great. I love that. Yeah. That's what also makes it very scary because now you have other people being like, how do we get what we want out of Trump being in office? Because it's not like Trump has the fucking brain for anything
Starting point is 00:53:18 except to sit in a chair and fart to the village people. Yeah. Also from the Heritage Foundation, Project Esther was... Esther, yeah. Esther, yeah, was announced back early October. But I feel like, again, this might be one that the Democrats should be kind of digging in a little bit more on, but they're basically saying anybody who voices support for Palestinian rights or is critical of Israeli military Zionism will be defined as anti-Semitic and treated as a terrorist, essentially.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Right, and deporting people. It's like, if you're part of one of these organizations that's advocating for this and you are foreign born, we will deport you. If you're an educator, You will be fired and blacklisted Yeah, this is like everything they're like if you're not if you're not from here We'll deport you if you're from here will make your life impossible to live Yeah
Starting point is 00:54:14 And that terms like social network analysis are used in the document to describe surveillance infiltration and disruption of social justice movements So they will be waging war on people, you know, try it, try it. Yeah. It will be very similar to the Red Scare, but just with regards to, uh, Oh, so you'll be labeled anti-Semitic. So are, what are, what are, what are the consequences for like hate groups, like neo-Nazis? Yeah. It does not mention a neo-NazisNazis or the Ku Klux Klan.
Starting point is 00:54:47 They're not identified as possible targets. I thought it was about anti-Semitism. Wait, so is it about? Sorry, we just use that as a cover to just sort of lock up dissenters. Sorry. That's the sort of question that an anti-Semitic terrorist might ask.
Starting point is 00:55:03 So. No, I'm just saying these guys follow us. No, they don't snap. It's and they're like, sir, you have no infinity gauntlet. Yeah, I don't know. This is just it's I mean, look, we got a week left. The polls are irrelevant because everything is basically within the margin of error and in most cases, like we've said before, just heavily favoring Republicans just to be like,
Starting point is 00:55:35 you can't, we cannot get caught out again being like, dude, they're, they're the Democrats. You're going to win this one. It's like very much neck and neck all the time, although many people who I think are like, looking at the cross tabs of polls are like, these are being weighted very interestingly. And also there's a lot of partisan polling out there that's shifting the weighted average.
Starting point is 00:55:56 So yeah, I've been talking about Ed and Germantem, who's like making the argument that like Republicans are being kind of given some extra weight in polling. And he thinks Kamala might be more ahead than people think based on the polling. And his theory is basically just that everybody from the poll aggregators who are including these partisan polls to even the New York Times and like, I guess he says the New York Times and like, uh, I guess he says New York, the New York Times has in 2022 was generally truthful, but a lot of the mainstream media seems to be obsessed with one thing and that is avoiding any overestimation of Democrats at all costs. And so, which makes sense because it does seem like the fact that 2016 and 2020 there were
Starting point is 00:56:46 these polling mistakes that overrated Democrats. They're like, all right, so we just need to assume that's going to happen again. He doesn't think that's going to happen again. I don't know. It's hard to say. But one point he's making is that there will be consequences to it. If the Republicans are being overrated in the polls, like we already know that Trump will declare himself the winner of the election no matter what. And in 2020, they were fully willing to like use trivia about in his article, he says they were fully willing to use trivia about
Starting point is 00:57:23 Bellwether counties and the predictive power of Ohio to back up their claims that Trump won This time they would be guaranteed to have an extensive list of pollsters showing Trump winning. So I don't know I I get the like prisoners dilemma of them being like well, we just can't show that Harris is Like a favorite because if we're wrong again for a third time we're so fucked yeah well then so what you know maybe this fuck it like it's yeah maybe maybe you should be yeah yeah yeah sorry if you're not good at your job and you're too afraid of what the outcome is gonna be whether or not
Starting point is 00:58:01 you can do it you're in the the wrong business or the industry itself needs major rethinking and how we, you know, all this prognostication works. Seems like it does, Miles. It does seem like it does. It's big money though, I'm telling you, man. It's fucking big money. Because it's like one of those things that's helped you justify like your political spending. Like you do a thing, like you go to a donor and be like, we need this much money to get, you know, this bill through or an X amount of votes or voters mobilized for this election. And then like, you're like, see, look, I got this,
Starting point is 00:58:33 I went to a pollster, very renowned. I paid them an exorbitant amount of money and they're telling, I got them to tell me the thing I need to tell you so I can continue to make money. And then I can continue to give them money to do polls for me. It's all very, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:49 All right. Let's take a quick break. We'll come back. We'll talk about some bullshit. Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16th 2017 was murdered. There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate. My name is Manuel de Lilla. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unearths the plot to murder a one-woman WikiLeaks. Stephanie exposed the culture of crime and corruption that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state. And she paid the ultimate price.
Starting point is 00:59:34 Listen to Crooks Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey there, I'm Dr. Maya Shankar and I'm a scientist who studies human behavior. Many of us have experienced a moment in our lives that changes everything. A moment that instantly divides our life into a before and an after. On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I talk to people about navigating these very moments. The last couple of years has been the hardest season of our marriage for sure. I'm surprised our marriage survived it. I think we both are. I think we both were barely holding on. Nothing compares to
Starting point is 01:00:19 how hard this is. Their stories are full of candor, awe, and hard-won wisdom. And you'll hear from scientists who teach us how we can be more resilient in the face of change. True behavior change is really identity change. Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become. Listen to A Slight Change of Plans on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey everyone, it's Jay Shetty, and I am so excited to let you know that my latest podcast interview is with the one and only Tom Hanks.
Starting point is 01:00:57 Tom rarely does long form interviews, so I was so grateful to have the time to dive deep into family, mental health and the mindset behind his long successful career. Dude, I travel light and I can travel light emotionally. I'm done. There's stuff that I cannot control. I have left many a wonderful atmosphere or a loving atmosphere or a friendly atmosphere. And like Ernie Banks, the, you know, the ballplayer for the Chicago Cubs without ever looking back,

And I was like, this, I love, I love New York. I love that this is littered everywhere. And it was a real thing, but yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:50 So it kind of went viral already, even before it started because of the aforementioned flyers that you saw. It was organized by that YouTuber who was also behind a quote cheese ball binging stunt earlier this year. See this is where I'm old man I didn't know about this you know I was New York's cheeseball man 1.7 million cool okay. So he wears a yellow mask and eats a bunch of cheese doodle cheese balls? Yeah yeah yeah cheeseball man I think let's see how
Starting point is 01:04:30 Just where's like the boomer fucking potato salad man. They just wanted to watch people eat He's just he ate a tub of cheese balls. Whatever man. Look look these are breading circuses Uh, don't for the following up my yum. I am into the cheese ball. I like these balls though. Yeah Cheese ball mukbang. Oh, yeah, but yeah, this is same guy. Same guy. He knows how to get the city of New York. You know, his work from cheese ball guy. Does he have an IMDb page? He should. Has anybody started making like the YouTuber IMDb? There are some. There are some people, I feel like, put their own shit on IMDb.
Starting point is 01:05:01 I've noticed that. And they are heroes for doing that. It is movies. Anyways, this event, uh, we got single Timothy Chalamet, doppelgangers participating in a makeshift dating game. Uh, one guy was arrested and led away in handcuffs by the NYPD. We're not, we're not sure. Disorderly conduct. I don't know what he did at a Timothy,
Starting point is 01:05:22 Timothy Chalamet lookalike contest that he got hemmed up like that But it couldn't have been good couldn't have been good the host of the event got fined $500 and the winner was a 21 year old student dressed as wonka Chalamet Who was presented with a giant novelty check for $50, which they said they would spend on candy That's a nice costume. That is, I mean, he did. It's not cheap. It's not as I guess it's not a cheap hobby trying to look like Timothy Chalamet
Starting point is 01:05:50 like that. No, man, that's trust me. It's fucking killing me. Hey, what's all that stuff hanging on the wall behind you? It's nothing. It's nothing. And I am talking about my Chalamet where when I talk about needing things to be drier because like, you know, I'm doing costume changes all day and I need these things to be washed and cleaned and dried quickly. And then one of the attendees who's wearing a mask pulled off his mask and
Starting point is 01:06:18 revealed himself to be the real Timothy Chalamet. Oh yeah, what exciting times we live in. You should have competed. Like that's the whole point of like going to your own lookalike contest. You compete. Well, the second he did, people just lost it. You know what I mean? Like, there's no way that would just be so funny. He goes and just a body that Timothee Chalamet contest.
Starting point is 01:06:38 Right. I felt like I was competing like, well, this is stupid, man. Like, fuck you, Timothee. I'm out here trying to make my own identity based off of yours. And you're coming in here with your scruffy shaved head or short hair. And I paid so much money for these plugs to look like you, Timothy. Can you imagine I just get a wild hair plugs? I'm like, I'm there to do like, sir,
Starting point is 01:07:03 that hair is of questionable provenance. Miles looks so good in the wig. We got to break out the wig for one of these video episodes. I need a chalamet wig. Send me a link to a chalamet wig because I need that. Someone who couldn't win a lookalike contest is Dwyane Wade if he was trying to look like the statue that the Miami Heat just revealed a bad, bad statue. What a sad, sad moment for Dwyan Wade. Why ain't I still every time, every time I type it, I have to say it. Dwyan in order to DWY.
Starting point is 01:07:45 Why? Why does this motherfucker look like this? Didn't he say who's that guy? I don't know if he caught that during the speech. He was like he was even like at the fucking unveiling for his own statue. This is him. Like, that's crazy. I can't believe that. Who is that guy? I think like because he was involved in the design of the statue,
Starting point is 01:08:09 apparently. So this is just one of those situations where like none of us look, none of us know what we look like, you know, we all have like distorted pictures of ourselves, uh, not all, but maybe like, uh, I feel like I have this where I'm like, you know, get majorly focused on one thing or another, you know, and would unveil a statue of me that looks absolutely... Whoa, who's that guy?
Starting point is 01:08:36 Oh, huh? Who is that guy? No, seriously, who is that guy? I mean, it's not great for considering how, look, I mean, the statues outside Staples look pretty good, I gotta say, like they will. So like the people, I was like, where did they find these sculptors? This? Yeah. Sculpting team did the Kobe. They did. Yeah. They did the Kobe and the Jordan, I think. Oh wow.
Starting point is 01:08:59 Or at least a Kobe and a Jordan. So what they're, they must be. So they must be Lakers fans or something. Right. They're like, yeah, yeah, we'll hook you up Dwayne. Yeah, yeah, check this out. I mean, I said he looked like fucking Morpheus in The Matrix when he's getting interrogated and he's all hooked up all that those machines and shit. And his face is screaming. I'm like, that's, that's what this looks like to me. Other people said it looks like when Dorian put on the mask in the mask. It does. His head is like all big and weird. Like he looks like an action figure that someone put in a microwave.
Starting point is 01:09:34 You know, it was made out of something that like puffs up when it's in the microwave. Paul Pierce texted Tony Allen a picture of the statue and he's like, oh, is this you? It does kind of, it looks more like Tony Allen. So yeah, I don't know. I mean, credit to Dwayne, he had a fantastic career. I hope he likes it, that's all that matters. Yeah. It's just a little odd.
Starting point is 01:09:59 I don't know what it- It doesn't look anything like him. It doesn't. Yeah. Dwayne Wade, one of the most handsome men ever play basketball, I feel like. And they just went. Is it because they're trying to put the beard in? So it's adding a bit of thickness to his jawline.
Starting point is 01:10:16 And that's maybe. Yeah, it's like beard era. He did have like kind of a bit of a puppy beard. And so this just makes it look like he's, has a jaw implant or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like he got like Chad. Tiny little eyes too. Like where, you know, they just really missed on so many levels.
Starting point is 01:10:34 Yeah. Well look, Duane, you got a statue, I don't. So that's all that matters. And it's wonderful. You're a good guy. So I think people, it looks like people are going mostly easy on there. I think they're going harder on the statue makers than they are being like
Starting point is 01:10:48 Dwayne Wade, but, oh yeah, for sure. I don't, I, I in no way blame Dwayne Wade. Um, yeah, it also, I had no way blame Dwayne. I, and this is, and I, my name is Jack O'Brien. Yeah. Wow. this message. Get out there ahead of it, yeah. Wow, it's a coward Bezos move you're making right now. And I don't blame Dwayne Wade. Thank you. I will not endorse any kind of critique of his statue
Starting point is 01:11:14 or him. I've also heard the gym teacher from Beavis and Butthead, if you're familiar with that character. Whoa. It kind of looks like that. Who had the buzz cut? Yeah, yeah, buzz cut. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:25 Coach, wasn't he called Coach Buzzcut? I think, yeah, I think so. He was always asking asking them to kick him in the gym. Yeah, it's it also captures him in a moment of celebration. So he's like screaming. But because of the material that it's made out of, Brian, the editor points out, he just looks like he's Han Solo trapped in carbonite. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:48 Like if Han Solo was black. Yeah. Yeah. It's got the same like kind of arms sort of raised thing. Yeah. Yeah. And scream of anguish on face, even though it's supposed to be scream of celebration and ecstasy. All right. Well, I think that's I think that's enough. I think that's enough. Yeah, I think that'll do. And we are back tomorrow with the whole last episode of the show.
